Conference strength will be the difference in this one. Big Twelve has not looked all that good so far while the SEC continues to excel during bowl season. It's no secret that Jevon Sneed has suffered through a miserable season for his standards and the time off should help. Miss also discovered that they should have been putting the ball in the hands of their dynamic playmaker Dexter McCluster who really poured it on at the end of the season. If Snead can get his groove back the loss of a starting CB Cox for OSU will allow him places to throw the football that he may not have had prior. OSU has improved defensively but they don't put tremendous pressure on the QB. That is what really bothere Snead during the season. The other QB Zach Robinson is a dandy but he is minus his biggest target and game changer Dez Bryant. When you play teams in the SEC you had better have all your weapons.

Once again we are looking at an underdog of a TD that looks to not be outclassed as much as some MAC bowl teams. The Huskies routinely play the Big Ten as non-conference goes and just as routinely play them very tough. This year they played Wisconsin very tough and beat Purdue. They are not a passing team so they won't have a lot of rust to shake off. Remember that teams receiving a TD or more are covering at a near 70% rate over the last 11 years. I watch USF a lot being that they are in my back yard and they are really not good enough to be laying a TD on the road. USF does nothing well on offense and they are totally without an identity. Their QB Daniels is only hitting on 52% of his passes as well. They can play some defense however. This is a game that will come down to turnover and special teams. Add in that the team has been through major distractions with the Coach Leavitt alleged punching of a player during their final home game and you have a recipe for disaster. This is a very srange situation here. If in fact the players witnessed the incident in the locker room and they believe that Leavitt is getting away with it they could send him a strong message in this game by playing flat. Not saying that will happen but then again I'm not saying that it won't.

Major line move here with the opener coming out at 7 and now seeing a move down to 3.5. That's big being that the opponent is an SEC team. Edsal is a good game day coach and their certainly is motivation here in honor of their fallen team mate. The Gamecocks laid a giant egg here last tear in the Outback Bowl so i look for something a little bit better out of the Gamecocks this time around the Big East vs the SEC is a major class differenc Garcia, the SC QB has made some nice strides over the course of the season but he does wilt under pressure as he is still very young. S. C definitely has the better defense and if they come to play they can seriously take UConn behind the woodshed. Take a look at the line tomorrow before playing this game in the morning. While there was some early support for U Conn at the higher number I believe we have caught this line at a low point for some people who were looking to get a profitable middle in this game. They are going to come back big with SC over the top and we can ride the wave with them.
5 Dime - East Carolina
E. Car throws the football and Ark is very vulnerable through the air. They can score points which you have to be able to do against Ark. As well. We also have an inflated line because of a SEC team. Against a lesser foe. But we will rely on the overwhelming stat favoring dogs by a TD or more. We keep coming back to it and yes it doesn't always work but I will take my chances at 7/10. I would really like to wait on this line to go back up as I'm sure that the public will be on the SEC side tomorrow and we want get the max points. Should settle at 9.
