Thursday, September 9th

Auburn (-2) at Mississippi State (55.5), 7:45 (ESPN): This line seems a bit low, doesn't it? Either that, or it's shades of overhyped Ole Miss' Week 2 loss last year at South Carolina in another nationally televised Thursday betting contest. The Tigers have beaten the Bulldogs eight of the last nine in the series and five straight here in Starkville. They've outgained Miss State in all nine of those meetings by an average of 163 yards per game. In 2007, Auburn suffered its only recent loss in this SEC West rivalry falling 19-14 as 13-point favorites. Two years ago, they won here 3-2 as nine-point chalk. Last year's game featured much more scoring with the Tigers winning 49-24 as two-TD chalk and in fact it was the most points scored by Auburn in a SEC game since 2005.

Saturday, September 11th

Michigan (52.5) at Notre Dame (-4), 3:30 (NBC): This has been an upset filled series with the underdog winning straight up six of the last seven meetings. Last year, Michigan prevailed as three-point home dog, 38-34, after blowing a double-digit fourth quarter lead. The underdog has won outright each of the last five meetings here in South Bend. That's the good news for the Wolverines. The bad news is that the visitor is just 2-9 SU the last 11 meetings in this fabled rivalry & Rich Rod's crew is just 2-8 their last 10 road openers. The Maize and Blue may have finally found themselves a QB in Denard Robinson, who ran for 197 yards in the opener vs. UConn, the most ever by a UM signal caller. Depending on your line, Notre Dame either covered or pushed last week vs. Purdue.

Florida State (58.5) at Oklahoma (-7.5), 3:30 (ABC): These teams haven't met since the 2000 Orange Bowl when the Sooners won their last National Championship beating the Seminoles 13-2. Interestingly, OU was off a year where they had lost five games the previous season, just like they are this season. Oklahoma did not look impressive last week in beating Utah State, 34-27, coming nowhere close to the massive 34.5-point number. Offensively, they rolled up 412 yards, but were just 5 of 17 on third down conversions. The defense allowed 421 yards, almost all of them through the air, but was fortunate enough to force four turnovers. They must be much sharper against FSU's Christian Ponder, one of the finest signal callers in America, whose Seminoles breezed by FCS Samford last week 59-6.

Miami FL (45.5) at Ohio State (-8), 3:40 (ESPN): This is another National Title Game rematch as the Buckeyes upset the Hurricanes in 2003 as double-digit dogs. This time its OSU coming in as a significant favorite against a Miami team that is favored to win the ACC. Tressel is now on an 11-3 ATS run in Columbus and is 8-1 vs. the number when coming off his last nine covers as a double digit favorite. They shellacked Marshall in the opener last Thursday 45-7 as massive 28-point chalk. The 'Canes recorded their first shutout win since 2006 beating FCS Florida A&M last week 45-0. This game will ultimately turn on which team's QB - Terrelle Pryor or Jacory Harris plays better. Miami is just 1-4 SU their last five road openers, but 26-16 SU vs. Big 10 opponents.

Penn State (44) at Alabama (-12), 7:00 (ESPN): The big news here is that Crimson Tide RB Mark Ingram is once again not expected to play. Bama didn't skip a beat last week vs. lightly regarded San Jose State as backup Trent Richardson ran for 66 yards and two touchdowns. Last year in the National Title game he had 109 yards and some feel he is actually a better runner than last year's Heisman Trophy winner. That just goes to show how much depth Nick Saban has in Tuscaloosa. For Penn State, this is the first of three games against teams that won a BCS Bowl game the previous year (Iowa, Ohio St). No other team in College Football history has had to endure that before. The Nittany Lions are 3-9 SU vs. Top 10 schools, but are 10-2 SU in road games vs. non-conf BCS opponents.
