Time: 9:00 PM EDT (Thu)
Play: Over (48 -110)

After a pedestrian offensive effort in its season opener against a stout Michigan St. defense, Boise St. exploded for 599 yards of total offense in last week's 39-12 win over Miami (OH.) We know BYU can score as well with QB Riley Nelson and WR Cody Hoffman. I made this number 55 and think we're in good position to get the 'over' at 48.

Boise St. got its offensive mojo back in Week 3 when it produced 599 yards of total offense in a 39-12 win over Miami (OH.). I always look to the home team first on a short week of preparation and in this instance, we get a home team that's 7-1 in its last eight games as a single-digit favorite. Give me Chris Petersen's team to win by double digits.

College football Thursday features BYU vs. Boise State. I like BYU plus the points. I really believe Boise State is getting way too much respect, this is a bargain if you like BYU. Before you BET it, make sure you GET it. I am talking about being selective and finding value. See the cashier.

Thursday's Play
100 Dime Two-Team Teaser on the New York Giants and the Under against Carolina. As I release this play at 11:10 AM here in Vegas on Thursday morning, the Giants are getting +2' with a total of 50. Using the six points you get to play with in a standard football two-teamer, boost the Giants to +8 1/2 for your side component. Then increase the total on the game to 56 and play the Under to complete the teaser.Comment

DAVID BANKS
New York Giants vs. Carolina Panthers
Two high-profile quarterbacks perform in on a national stage Thursday night when Eli Manning and the New York Giants (1-1, 0-2 ATS) visit Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers (1-1, 1-1 ATS) at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC at 8:20 ET on NFL Network. Manning is fresh off of an amazing 510-yard passing performance in a come-from-behind win vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers while Newton guided the Panthers to an upset of Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints. Unfortunately for the Giants, they now appear to be at a severe disadvantage personnel-wise.
Manning may need to pass for 400 yards in this contest given that running back Ahmad Bradshaw left Sunday's game with a sprained neck and is now confirmed out. Granted, Andre Brown filled in admirably in the 41-34 win by rushing for 71 yards on 13 carries with a touchdown in relief of Bradshaw, but he is still unproven as an every-down back, so the Giants probably have no qualms about putting this game in Manning's hands. This is especially true considering that Brees passed for 325 yards vs. the Carolina secondary Sunday. However, the abnormally long Giants' injury report may not leave Manning many receiving options to throw too. In addition to the running back Bradshaw, Hakeem Nicks, who had 199 receiving yards Sunday, is out after aggravating his previously broken foot and the number three receiver Domenik Hixon is also out with a concussion. That leaves Victor Cruz, who had 179 receiving yards including an 80-yard touchdown reception Sunday, as the go-to guy this week, and he is now expected to attract constant double coverage. To top things off, tackle David Diehl is also out with a knee injury, which could lead to offensive line issues.
Newton was victorious vs. the Saints, but was the running game that keyed the win as the Panthers rushed for a whopping 219 yards after being unable to run a lick at Tampa Bay on opening week. Newton did lead the ground attack with 71 rushing yards, but DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart were not far behind with 69 and 51 respectively. Newton was also extremely efficient when he did pass the ball, completing 14 of his 20 passes for 253 yards, grading out to a whopping average of 12.7 yards per attempt! Steve Smith was on the receiving end of 104 of those yards on just three receptions. Now while the defense did allow Brees to pass for 325 yards, he required 49 passes to do so and Carolina actually ranks 10th in the NFL in defensive passing average through two weeks, yielding only 6.2 yards per pass attempt. All of the Giants' injuries should allow that pass defense to key on Cruz all game and dare the likes of Martellus Bennett and Ramses Barden to try and beat the Panthers. Also, Carolina defensive ends Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy have been putting good pressure on opposing quarterbacks in the first two weeks even when not getting sacks, and that duo can take advantage of Diehl's absence.
The 'over' has gone 4-0 on the last four head-to-head meetings between these teams, although that could possibly be in jeopardy here with the New York offense so banged up.
Pick: OVER 50.5

1-Unit Play. Take #925 Philadelphia (-125) over N.Y. Mets (7 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 20)
The Mets pissed another game away in the ninth inning last night and you could just see the dejection on their face. The Phillies still own this New York team. The Mets are done and the Phils still have a lot to play for and after last night I just figured that the Mets were going to slump while the Phillies wlll twist the knife and capitalize on their big win last night. Tyler Cloyd was shaky in his last outing. But he threw well against the Mets in his first career start and I think he will be good enough for tonight's situation.Comment

Had a very nice 7-0-1 night last night.
Could have been 8-0 if Kinsler and Pujols knew how to run the bases, but oh well. Let's keep it going today.
