With the first weekend of college football
nearly over, Against The Line give you a peek inside the Member Section
to see how we break down Sunday's games. Get our full action each and
every week by purchasing a site membership here.Syracuse at Purdue
We have the Boilers as solid 15 point winners against 'Cuse in this
game at Ross Ade on Sunday. Purdue should have the most prolific
offense in the Big Ten this season and with the Orangemen starting a
new QB in his first road game the defense may have a bit easier time
even though they only return 3 starters. Purdue is 9-5 ATS in their
last 14 September home games and we think they cover here as well.
Prediction:
‘Cuse 20 (total yardage 362)
Purdue 35 (total yardage 499)
Pick - Purdue for one unit
Houston at Rice (neutral field)
We have the Cougars winning this crosstown battle by 6 while the line
sits at only three (-3.5 in some places). Rice will get their yards on
the ground with the wishbone, but having all summer to prepare will
help Houston keep the damage minimal. The Cougars are 9-5 ATS in the
series since 87 and we like them to improve here.
Prediction:
Houston 31 (total yardage 503)
Rice 25 (total yardage 399)
Pick - Houston for one unit
Kentucky at Louisville
When the game opened at eight, this looked like a pretty solid wager,
but with the number increasing all the way to 10 we have to avoid a
play.
Prediction:
Kentucky 16 (total yardage 278)
Louisville 27 (total yardage 508)
Pick - No Play
Fresno St at Washington
FSU has done fine playing the PAC Ten handing losses to OSU and UCLA so
they won't be intimidated in this contest, but our numbers have it a
bit too close to the line for a wager.
Prediction:
Fresno St 24 (total yardage 368)
Washington 28 (total yardage 440)
Pick - No Play |
