dont like that ucla -7

why?
1) ucla has no run game
2) ucla has struggled against virginia and MEMPHIS @home MEMPHIS for crying out loud
3) game is on a neutral field
4. ucla at home gave up 35 to memphis
5. i dont see texas being embarrased im not saying ucla won't win but to me if they do it'll be close , no need to stress myself out over that game


i love the nebraska game
fresno state gave up 52 to usc and 59 to utah, they can't stop teh run, they can't run the ball, yes i know fresno has won 13 straight at home but derek carr aint walking through that door, fresno state had no defense lsat year but could put up 50 a game, this year no defense and no offense.

You could contribute the 1st game against UVA to traveling and early kick off time and the offense stunk. The game against Memphis the defense went MIA but the offense got going. I could be wrong but I'm expecting a complete game from UCLA. Texas will be missing their top receiver Jaxon Shipley, starting Center Dominic Espinosa, and not to mention suspended receiver Daje Johnson. Texas struggled against dual threat QB in Taysom Hill(who ran for 99 yards, 3 rushing TD's, and threw for 181).

texas struggled against byu last year, some teams have a achilles hell texas/byu, oregon stanford

byu defense>>>>ucla

byu also has a top 5 running game in all of college football, ucla is piss poor against the run, Texas is excellent against pass d

Shipley is ass and slow, even the texas v byu game last week it was the 4 turnovers that really did texas in, they kept byu to only 181 passing yards, but it was the running game that killed them

ucla has no run game and one of the worst offensive lines in a power 5 conference.

charlie strong aint getting embarrased two weeks in a row, this is swoopes team now, the game plan will be tailored o his making

there is just to many variables for me to play this game risk isn't worth it. but good luck

just saying sometimes "vegas knows"
texas gets blown out 41-7 last week against byu
suddenly on a neutral field there facing ucla a better team overall than byu, and texas has a shoddy qb, a shoddy offensive line and a leaky d and the spread is only -7?

as well gus johnson is calling this game

any game gus johnson calls i look at the spread over and over and over again

Garnet N Gold
got cardinals, baltimore, jays and angels on RL... then cubs on the ML +190 with wada pitching figured id give it a go....

I want that big dirty money...

I can't trust Wainwright even though Rockies are ass same with CJ Wilson in that Angels game. I hate having to take home teams on the RL but too many good matchups it's hard to pass. Nats own the Mets i'm take my chances with Gio Gonzalez.

yeah i dont share ur distrust of wainwright completely... hes been looking better... but to me the rockies are such trash... i like the odds...

I really feel the angels are gonna score 6-7 runs anyways... so i just need wilson to pitch his average game at 4ish runs...

well see tho i mean its all up in the air... should be fun to watch tho for the first hour or so lol....

5 laate games too... im not going out... so chances are ill be betting another parlay tonight too.

I bet the orioles ML for this early game


I fukking love this Orioles Team......No matter the injuries (Machado, Hardy) they always pull through. If you bet them every game this season you'd be up big.
