Lenny Del Genio’s CFB TOP RATED VEGAS ICON (72% ALL-TIME!) - **EARLY** Saturday
Play on Georgia Tech at 12:00 ET. It goes without saying that the 1st game of the Turner Gill era at KU did not go according to plan. Last Saturday, the Jayhawks suffered a shocking 6-3 loss to FCS North Dakota State despite allowing just 168 yards of total offense. The problem however was the offense, which gained just 293 total yards and turned the ball over three times. Starting QB Kale Pick, a sophomore, was ineffective and had to be replaced by backup Jordan Webb. Normally, you'd expect a huge bounce back effort in Lawrence from the home team, but we believe that Gill inherited a true mess here and that opening week performance may be a sign of things to come. The ugly firing of Mark Mangino left the cupboard pretty bare and despite 13 starters returning from a year ago, the losses of QB Todd Reesing (school's all-time passing leader) and WR's Dezmon Briscoe and Kerry Meier (two careers with 200+ receptions) were huge. It is quite rare to lose that kind of production at the wideout position in one year and last week we saw the results. Furthermore, we wonder if the hiring of Gill is all its cracked up to be. A much celebrated hire due to the pathetic lack of racial progress in College Football, Gill's resume essentially hangs its hat on a fortune-filled 2008 season at Buffalo with the team benefiting from several close wins and a incredible turnover ratio. His Bulls team actually ranked just 8th in the MAC that year in yard differential per game and was whipped in its bowl game by UConn 38-20 (outgained 407-237) His 4-year record at Buffalo was just 20-30 remember. Dating back to the end of the Mangino era, Kansas has actually lost eight straight games with the lone cover coming by a single point in the regular season finale vs. rival Missouri. They try and avoid their first 0-2 start since a 2-10 season in '02, but that's "easier said than done" against a Georgia Tech team that presents a matchup nightmare. Playing in the Big 12, the Jayhawks are accustomed to playing pass-happy offenses, so they're in for a rude awakening against the top rushing attack in the country from a year ago. Last week vs. their FCS opponent (41-10 W over S Carolina State), the Yellow Jackets threw just twice the entire game while 12 different rushers combined for 372 yards (6.6 yds per carry) and six touchdowns. This is the third year of HC Paul Johnson's systems and what he's accomplished in his first two years in Atlanta is pretty amazing considering the steep learning curve in converting to the triple option. He had GT in the Orange Bowl last year and returns 14 starters. The team is now 10-2 ATS in true road games during his tenure, including six straight covers on Saturday. Predating his tenure, the Yellow Jackets are 6-2 SU vs. non-conf BCS teams away from home. Although the defense struggled a bit in its first game playing as a 3-4 under new DC Al Groh, the offensive deficiencies of Kansas should make life pretty easy on Saturday. They are a phenomenal 10-1 ATS coming off a win by 28 or more points and this programs usually starts strong no matter whom the coach is with a 16-6 ATS record the 1st two weeks of the season going back over a decade. Kansas has gone 0-4 ATS the past two seasons as a home dog. Georgia Tech is our CFB "VEGAS ICON" Play.Comment

LPW Sports Forecast
100 Unit Elite Access Ole Miss -20.5 over Tulane
Tulane should be in a World of Hurt here against a furious and far more talented Rebel team.Greenwave struggled last week vs SE Louisiana and struggled to Run ball in that game.This Ole Miss defense is far more talented then they showed in last weeks upset loss to Jacksonville St and we should see it Saturday Night. Look for Rebels to benefit from great field position all night and Roll Over Tulane. Ole Miss 10-4 ats in last 14 road games and Tulane 8-21-1 ats in last 30 home games! Lay it!
10 Unit Game of Week - CSU/Nevada Over 57
CSU only managed 3 points last week against Colorado but that is a bit misleading as QB Thomas threw 3 crucial picks even as he completed 72% of passes. We feel both of these teams will be able to move ball and CSU poises more of a challenge for Nevada then did E.Washington last week. Take Over here
8 Unit Underdog Game of Week Michigan +3.5 over Notre Dame
Impressive opening week Win for Michigan last week and we feel this is a solid spot for them against Irish.Anyone wanting to lay this should consider the Irish are 8-20 ats in last 28 home games and albeit last week Win was impressive, it was against Purdue!! Take points in a Game we feel Wolverines Win SU!
6 Units Army -3 over Hawaii
We were impressed with Hawaii's grit last week vs Trojans, but feel travel and completely different offense will present challenges for Hawaii here. Lay Point
6 Units Bowling Green +17 over Tulsa
Bowling Green a little better then what many expected and Tulsa is simply struggling on Defense right now.Bowling Green should keep this game competitive.Grab Points!
