3 Unit Play. Take #342 Navy -3.5 over Connecticut (3:30p.m., Saturday Sept 10 CBSC)
Boy did UConn look bad last week against Maine as the squeaked out a 24-21 victory. Navy played their Navy game last week rushing for 6 touchdowns to blow up Forham 52-16. Saturday afternoon if Connecticut struggles to stop the option I see another double-digit victory by the Midshipmen. The UConn Huskies are 6-19-1 ATS in their last 29 road games and Navy is 10-1 ATS in their last 11 home games. Triple option will be the key for the Midshipmen victory at home Saturday late afternoon.
4 Unit Play. Take #366 Miami Fl -24 over Florida Atlantic (6:00p.m., Saturday Sept 10)
Last weekend the Owls of Florida Atlantic had trouble putting away Southern Illinois and now this Saturday the Owls stay in the state of Florida and battle the U. Miami crushed Florida A&M 70-3 last weekend and most of the starters sat out in the 4th quarter. Miami QB Brad Kaaya was nothing but brilliant last weekend throwing for 4 TD's but the running game of Miami was too much for Florida A&M as the Hurricanes had not one, not two, but three running backs with over 100 yards on the ground. This game will get ugly quick and the U defense will dominate and this game should be over by the 4th quarter again. Miami is 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games after allowing 20 points or less in their last game.
7 Unit Play. Take #392 San Diego St -7 over California (10:30p.m., Saturday Sept 10 CBSC)
This game will be fun to watch and what I saw in Australia is one of the main reasons why we like this Mountain West team. California played Hawaii last week in Australia and the Bears won 51-31 but Hawaii was able to throw on the secondary of Cal. San Diego St at home last week had no problem with New Hampshire beating them 31-0 and this Aztecs defense is no joke. San Diego St on offense has Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year Donnel Pumphrey and we all know what kind of game he had last year against California. Last year in Berkley the Bears had no problem with San Diego St beating them 35-7 and the Bears defense held Pumphrey to only 85 yards and 0 touchdowns. This year will be a different story and a different outcome because this game is being played at Qualcomm Stadium and we know San Diego St fans will be loud and proud and I see revenge being served by the Aztecs. The number is dropping in our favor because the public will take a PAC-12 team over a Mountain West team but after the 1st quarter the Aztecs defense will show the public and the Cal Bears that they want revenge and at the end Donnel Pumphrey will run wild. California is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games and the Bears are 1-5 ATS against a team with a winning record. San Diego St 8-1-2 ATS in their last 11 games and the Aztecs are 7-1-1 ATS following a SU win.
NFL FOOTBALL WEEK #1
6 Unit Play. Take #466 Baltimore -3 over Buffalo (1:00p.m., Sunday Sept 11)
The Baltimore Ravens are hoping they can turn it around this season after coming off of a disappointing and shocking 5-11 season. The Ravens were bitten by the injury bug all last year but Sunday afternoon at M&T Bank Stadium the Ravens will look to grab their first W of the season. Ravens QB Joe Flacco is 100 percent and I love the addition of Mike Wallace for the Ravens has he will stretch the field for the Ravens offense. This matchup will be all around the offense of Buffalo against the defense of Baltimore and with the 'D' that Baltimore will have on the field and again throw in all the missing Ravens from last year getting to suit up on Sunday will be too much for the Bills. I know laying points at home in Baltimore has been rough but with Baltimore having their first losing season under John Harbaugh I see Baltimore winning big and wouldn't shock me to see Baltimore win by a touchdown or more. Buffalo is 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 road games and the home team in this series is 5-1 ATS.
4 Unit Play. Take #481 Under 43.5 Los Angeles Rams at San Francisco (10:20p.m., Monday Sept 12)
Both teams have question marks at quarterback and I have no clue how either team is going to score. If the Rams can ran the ball on the road Monday night then I see them controlling the tempo but if they can't this game will get ugly for the passing game of LA. San Francisco will be relying on their defense to keep them in games from the start and I seem them controlling the front line and putting pressure on the Rams backfield. With too bad offesnes and two teams that have pretty good ?D's? we should see a low scoring Monday night game. The Rams last 7 games 6 of them have gone UNDER and the 49ers are 2-8 O/U against NFC West teams.
NFL FOOTBALL FUTURES
5 Unit Play. Take Green Bay Packers -150 to Win NFC North (January 2017)
Let's face it last year was a weird year for the Green Bay Packers! Before the season started the Packers were one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl last and they could even win the NFC North. Injuries and home losses killed the Packers Super Bowl run last year but the past is the past and this year we should see a focus Packers team. The Green Packers end the regular season win three division opponents (2 road games Bears and Lions and 1 home game against Minnesota) and all 3 of those games could be winners. It's no secret the division will be won by either Green Bay or Minnesota and with a focus Aaron Rodgers and a healthy Green Bay team we could see a deep playoff run from the Cheese Heads. Green Bay wins the NFC North and they could be big Super Bowl contenders.
3 Unit Play. Take Dallas Cowboys Regular Season Wins Under 9.5 -130 (January 2016)
I just don't see the Dallas Cowboys winning double-digits W's this upcoming season. At best I see the Dallas Cowboys winning 9 games and if their defense struggles which most likely it will they could be an easy 8-8 team. Their offense will put up points but their defense will be their Achilles Heel and their defense will cost them games down the stretch. -

STEAMROLLER GAME OF THE WEEK
Virginia at Oregon (-24-) 10:30 ET ESPN
Each week on these pages, I isolate a college football STEAMROLLER of the week. The purpose is to find one team who dominates the point of attack by either double rushing their opponent or by running and passing for 200 yards, while their opponent does not. In the 16 years of this millennium, each of these situations has resulted in 75% pointspread winners.
If the offensive success of Oregon in years gone by is a good indicator of this team’s offense, then so is the Virginia performance of Week 1 under 1st year HC Mendenhall.
Are there concerns about Oregon under 4th year HC Helfrich? You bet! This guy is focusing on his 45 PPG offense and virtually ignoring a defense which has gone from allowing 20 to 24 to 37 PPG in his 3 year tenure. In Week 1, the Ducks ran and passed for at least 251 yards but failed to cover the 46 point impost against Cal-Davis in a 53-28 victory, when they allowed the Aggies to pass for over 300 yards. Now, in the last 1+Y, the Ducks are just 2-5 ATS as home chalk. This year’s imported triggerman from Montana St. is Dakota Prukop. He thrived for the Bobcats, running the same Chip Kelly offense that Oregon runs. But, if the Ducks are to return to Top 5 status, it will have to be because new DC, Brady Hoke, does a much better job with the defense than previous coordinators. Today, however, it may not matter.
Virginia was badly underachieving in the 6 years under Mike London. In the previous 4 years, the Cavs were just 15-33 SU. Recruiting had sunk to an all-time low. This year’s Cav fate is entrusted to former BYU HC, Bronco Mendenhall, who led the Cougars to Bowl games in all 11 years with the Cougars. If the results of Week 1 were any indication, that streak is about to be broken. On opening week, the Cavs were a 13 point home favorite against FCS Richmond. Not only were they beaten (37-20), failing to cover by 30 points, but they were -4 in the net TO column, were outgained 524-302 and outrushed 187-38.
Even if the Oregon defense does not live up to the expected improvement, it seems a short leap to assure a 4 TD+ victory against a Virginia team who has a long way to come back.Comment
