September 15-16

Hello out there again. Well the Irish lost again this past weekend at Penn St. and unless our O-line gets any better it might be a very long season, but we have a real shot playing at the Big House this saturday. I really like the Irish +7.5, but with the way these two teams have played there is no way I am going to touch that game. Anyway, on to the good stuff.



Free Money College Edition:



1)Louisville -6.5 @ Kentucky -->7:30 pm et

-I will agree that Kentucky has a good offense and will definitely keep up with Louisville for a while (note: the over at 77 looks pretty good too), but in the end Brian Bohm and his offense will put up a win of at least one touchdown. Louisville has won the last four meetings, with the closest game being a 7 point victory in '05. Make if 5 straight for the Cardinals.



2)Fresno St. +16.5 @ Oregon -->7:00 pm et

-Congrats to Oregon for putting on a beating last week at Michigan, but that big win is a lot less impressive than the job Pat Hill did down at Texas A&M, taking his bulldogs into OT. Oregon has won the last 5 meetings, but the largest margin of defeat was a 7 point win last year.



3)Florida -8 vs. Tennessee -->3:30 pm et

-If Tenn, can't keep it close at California, then they definitely can't keep it close down at the Swamp. Tebow will have his first start in a big time SEC game, but Coach Urban has him ready for this. This is usally a very close game, but not this year. Looking for a 10-16 point win by Florida.

1)New Orleans -3.5 @ Tampa Bay --> 1:00 pm et

-I feel that either the fix is on or Tampa Bay went out and got Joe Montana. Is there really a possibility that Tampa Bay keeps this one close. New Orleans played last Thursday and will be a little more rested after coming out of the gate a little slow against the Colts. Bush improves in this game where Tampa Bay is missing "Cadilac" Williams. These priates don't have the power or weaponry to compete in this one.



2)Seattle -3 @ Arizona --> 4:05 pm et

-The Seahawks are notoriously bad in away games, but this one is at least a little closer to home and they are playing against the Cardinals. They have a pretty sweet new stadium out there in Arizona, but they are still a little young to compete with Hasselbeck and Alexander.



I might put New Orleans and Louisville in a parlay and then bet every game individually.



We (the Irish of Notre Dame) really need to win this one against Michigan. I believe that this game is critical one. We don't win here, we might not see a win until Navy.



Hoping to improve upon my 4-1 record.
