I like Utah-3 against the gators, Ark-6 against Cincy, and LSU -3.5 against FSU.

I agree with this. ND is trash and the beat down will result in OSU getting some #1 votes and a whole lot of media attention. ND will drop a few spots and then at the end of the year we’ll still be hearing the media talk about “should Notre Dame be in?”

I don't generally like giving that many points, but OSU has a potent offense and an upgrade in their new def coach. There are always bumps with a new coach (Freeman).

I just have a feeling by the end of the year ND will be exposed as a very average team. Not before the media gives OSU all the credit in the world for beating them soundly though.

I did a 3 game +6 teaser with those exact games, and I’m terrible at gambling.

I think you should consider this an omen

The more Utah love I see the more I think FL ML is a “best bet.”

Like Ohio St and Arkansas to cover going away. I played those two earlier in the off season at 7 and 14 respectively. Also played FSU +3.

I think Napier will do well at Fla, but they nosedived at the end of the year. It may take a year or two. While Richardson has shown flashes he also was inconsistent. I don't like SEC teams losing to Pac 12 teams, but Utah always fields well coached and balanced teams.

I think I seen earlier where Vandy is a 19 point favorite. I may take Elon to cover if I am remembering that spread right. Vandy just got a big win 5 time zones away last Saturday. Vandy will win but they most likely do not cover that spread.

True, but I can’t bet against my Gators. I think Gators pull this one into a W.

They’ll get the “beat a Top 10 team!” treatment, a la 2019 LSU vs Texas, regardless of ND’s final record. No doubt.

Kentucky is only -16 vs Miami Ohio.

That's a stinky line. I don't know anything about Miami Ohio, so maybe they are better than I think. I really like Kentucky this year though.

Florida hasn't lost a home opener since 1989. Streak stays alive, 24-23 Gators.

All over Ark -6 vs Cinci before the lines settles back at 7

Bama ran at will on them, Arky will too

This is pretty much a given now. I saw where Barrett Sallee was defending their ranking. Just about every time BS takes a hard stance on something, the opposite proves to be true.

I've seriously never seen someone fall up so much in a career. He's a trash take machine who knows very little about the subject he's "covering" (football), and routinely gets everything wrong. Yet somehow, he continues to advance his career in this industry. It's mystifying.
