This line seems like a huge over reaction based on some of Texas Tech's results.  I like this Red Raiders team but laying this many after they just destroyed Northwestern seems like way too many.  Wofford was only 6 point dogs to South Carolina and Cal

I have backed this Nevada team several times so far and have been dead on.  I still dont think they are getting the credit they deserve especially being on their home court.  This Nevada team is loaded with talent in a large part because of transfers.  Davidson is generally a very good outside shooting team but they lost some key pieces last year

This Alabama team is legit and by far the best Avery Johnson has had.  They will be lead by stud true freshman Collin Sexton.  Bama is a legit contender with Kentucky who I think is overrated and Florida.  Bama has legit talent and they will continue to show it 

I know UCLA has a lot of trouble going on but you cant fault them for losing to Creighton last night which was basically a home game for Creighton.  The Bluejays made a ton 3's last night but UCLA held their own ground.  You simply cant pass up a team like the Bruins who have way more talent catching points here

Buffalo played a legit Cincy team that some people are picking to make the final four this season.  They were 16 point dogs in that game only losing by 6 which it came down to the final minutes.  UAB lost to Richmond who has been flat out terrible.  Maybe UAB is awful as well will take my chances.

Iowa laid a complete egg yesterday and were down 20 at half.  They simply couldn't make anything they looked at.  I think we see a hungry team here bounce back with a big effort and take care of business today.  Iowa will dictate the pass early which they failed to yesterday.  

I know this Michigan team lost 3 starters from last years team and they haven't looked very sharp out of the gate yet.  This is more of a play against LSU who regardless of where you look everyone has them pegged as the worst team in the SEC and I agree with this assessment.  Michigan still has enough guys with talent here to cover this low of number. 

I'm not high on this Stanford team as I have already went against them when they played Eastern Washington laying 16.5 and lost the game outright.  I was pretty impressed with UNC playing UNI who is thought to be a very impressive mid major school.  I dont see UNC having a problem with Stanford who struggles to score 

This is be a public play no doubt, but how can you honestly even consider backing this Pitt team.  They have lost to Navy and Montana and barely beat UC Santa Barbara.  The lack of talent returning is glaring and on the other hand Penn St returns a ton of young talent who will be more than fired up than to beat down an in state rival.  

Wall is question mark here for tonight's game and even if he does play I think the Bucks here.  Milwaukee should be focused and hungry after laying an complete egg @ Dallas in losing by 31!  Prior to that loss the Bucks had won 4 straight.  Another reason we get good effort here is because Milwaukee goes on a west coast trip after this game.

This no doubt will be a public play for sure, but I think the Blazers respond here especially since they just lost to Memphis at home by 1.  They will be out for revenge and shouldn't have an issue getting it as the Grizzlies are now without Conley who is the glue for that team.  

Memphis has dropped 4 straight and 5 of 6 

Should the Cavs really be favored here over a division rival who is 11-5 on the season and 7-1 at home.  I really dont think so plus I like what the Pistons did last night winning on the road @ Minnesota.  This team is playing pretty high level ball right now.  

The betting public will be all over the Cavs since they have won 4 straight games but wins over the Mavs Knicks Clippers and Hornets dont quite do it for me.  

Richmond looks like they have something wrong with them so far.  In both games they were favored and lost by a combined 47 points ovly scoring 61 and 63 in each game.  I want no part of that team what so ever.  I know UAB hasn't played anyone strong but doesn't look like they need much to beat this team 

Jumped on this line early for obvious reasons and love it.  I think the Eagles are the best team in football and they will be ready for a huge Sunday night showdown.  

The Cowboys I think are falling a part because of their injuries and suspension.  I know odds makers say Zeke is only worth one point but he is clearly worth a lot more to that offense if you watched them last week.  

Wentz in his 2nd year his making a strong case for MVP honors.  He can further cement that with a huge performance on the biggest stage.  Eagles also have a very good defense that can hold Dak in check.

I know the Raiders have been disappointing this season given the fact what they did last year.  I just like this spot for them.

Oakland is coming off their bye week which I think is huge this time of the season especially given the struggles they have had.  I also like that it is being played on a neutral field, but the Raiders are familiar with this place in Mexico City while this is new ground for Brady and the Patriots.

The Patriots are playing well sitting at 7-2 but the recent teams that have beat you can honestly look at them and say 0 of them are making the playoffs.  I also don't trust their defense against Carr with time to prepare

It's almost an automatic fade for me when a team blows the doors off another.  I think we are seeing a huge over reaction here on the Saints.  

This Redskins team is better than their record.  Look at their last 4 losses they were against the Vikings, Eagles, Chiefs and Cowboys when they were at full strength.  those are 4 of the top 10 teams in the league easily.  

I also think the Saints have had a pretty easy schedule up to this point beating Green Bay without Rodgers, the Bears, Tampa, Buffalo and Detriot.  Can we really say right now that any of these are playoff teams?

Redskins keep this close and might win it outright

Can you believe the day has come that the Jaguars are even favored on the road let alone more than a touch down?  I cant believe it either!  

Browns haven't won a game and the betting public wants nothing to do with them.  However, last week against Detroit they should have won that game outright let alone cover the 2 touchdowns they were getting it was a real bad beat.  

I know the Jags are 6-3 but wins over the Chargers Bengals and Colts their last 3 doesn't really cut it.  I'm not actually sure their QB is that much better than Kizer.  

Browns have a defense to hold Bortles in check pretty easily

Really surprised at all this steam move here on the Texans.  I don't think we will find a motivated Texans team anymore losing 3 straight and 4 of 5 sitting at 3-6 with no hopes of the playoffs now.  

The Cardinals still have the hope I think and I like them here getting the extra time coming off a Thursday night game.  Arizona has the better defense and they can get back to .500 here at 5-5 which will put them still in the playoff picture.  

I will take the desperate team

Everything in this game goes to the spot.  This is a big rivalry game and I think Cal will show up here.  Cal is coming off their bye week and will be ready here.  Stanford is coming off their biggest win of the season in a upset win over Washington.  Now they also have Notre Dame on deck so we know they will be looking ahead here. 

Like Missouri here as a month ago this team was looking like they may only win a couple games.  Well, now they are on fire covering 6 straight and winning 4 straight.  Their offense has really clicked here and should against Vandy who I thought threw in the towel last week against Kentucky which isn't a good sign.  Missouri also could make a bowl game here with their 6th win.  

Such a tough spot for Notre Dame here coming off a dream crushing loss @ Miami.  It's going to be hard for ND to even get up for this game.  I also don't think ND will prepare very hard for this option team.  Navy on the other hand will be motivated and they can keep this close

This is the ultimate flat spot for Iowa St who has had a nice ride here this season making a lot of headlines, but I Baylor is still playing hard despite having a very bad year.  Last weeks results was very misleading against Texas Tech as they out gained them by over a 100 yards but lost by double digits.  

I think the early kick here really helps Arkansas.  Miss St is coming off a a huge deflating loss as they actually lead the game in the 2nd half against Bama , but came up short.  It's going to be hard for them to get up here as there is nothing to play now.  I do think Arkansas will show up even though they have had a disappointing season.
