Saturday 9/2/2017 - Football is back
Lock:
Georgia -15 v. Appalachian State
- App State has played big time programs tough in the past, including taking Tennessee to OT in last season's opener. But Jacob Eason with a year under his belt and the 1-2 punch of Chubb and Michel will be too much for App State to handle, especially between the hedges.
Love:
Louisville (N) -25 v. Purdue (N)
- Louisville will be looking to bounce back from their end of the year struggles in 2016. The Boilermakers let up 38.3 points per game and 240 rushing yards per game in a conference not particularly known for explosive offense, not a great combination when the reigning Heisman winner is across the line of scrimmage.
Vanderbilt -3 @ Middle Tennessee State
- Home field shouldn't be a huge factor as the Dores will not have to leave the state. They return a solid running game and will be able to run wild against a team who's starting defensive tackles are both below 260 pounds.
Like:
Nebraska -15 v. Arkansas State
- I may be biased here but Vegas doesn't seem to be buying the hype that is Tanner Lee. Under the lights in Memorial stadium will be tough test for the Red Wolves, especially with big Alabama transfer NT Dee Liner banged up.
West Virginia (N) ML (+165) v. Virginia Tech
- Transfer QB Will Grier and the WVU offense will be too much for the Hokies to keep pace with.
Upset Alert:
BYU (N) ML v. LSU (N)
-BYUs week 1 struggle against Portland state was a wake up call for the Cougars. BYU was 9-4 last year, winning 8 of their last 9 games, and the 4 losses were by a combined 8 points. It will be a little more tough with the game now moved to New Orleans, but BYU is tough and experienced and will pull out the stunner.
Florida (N) ML v. Michigan (N)
- Even with the suspensions on the Florida team, Florida will hold it's own in this game. Michigan has to replace to many starters from last years team.
