There's no Betting board and some people on here get persnickety when there's a thread about betting, but if you feel that way then just don't click.
Georgia – -39.5
Marshall – +39.5
...I rarely bet on Georgia when they play a little debbie at home, but Marshall is something we've never seen before in college football. They have 73 new players and half their starters transferred to Southern Miss in the off-season with their new coach, including the quarterback.

Tough to cover 39.5. Not that UGA couldn't do it, but Smart isn't going to run the score up or risk injury to the 2 deep vs Marshall.
They go vanilla and get under classmen reps by the 2nd half if/when up 4 scores. Starters may take the opening drive of 2nd half in that situation and call it a day.
I like USF to cover vs Boise. They get an Idaho team at home in FL in Aug with a pretty good coach in the mad Russian. USF is sitting at +6.5

Kirby phased this out a few years ago. We keep throwing in the second half now and keep mashing the gas, even when the backups come in.
...I like your Boise bet too. Boise opened last season at Georgia Southern and probably would have lost if they didn't have Jeanty. Now they don't have Jeanty and have to play a better team in a similar situation.

Dawgs have a lot to prove and need game experience, but when thrashing an undermanned team, we’ve seen Kirbs occasionally agree to a running clock.

Brian Kelly shitting the bed again is a lock

Too many points to spot.
Smart Money is on Brian Kelly and the fighting Tiggers choking in their season opener. It's free money at this point guys.

When there are 60 really random games early in the season, it's a bold move to choose one of the games that's most scrutinized and analyzed by the handicappers. Those are usually the ones you want to avoid betting on.

Kept throwing against Tennessee Tech when Gunner came in the game last year. I think Kirby's gotten to the point where he knows he has to throw players a bone and keep players happy when he gets a chance in the portal era.
I see what you're saying though. There was that one game 3 or 4 years ago when Daijuan Edwards had something like 20 carries in the fourth quarter. I think those days are over, however.

Not sure if I like that one. I feel like we rarely cover against cupcakes, since we usually play pretty vanilla and are really just focused on getting 2nd and 3rd stringers reps against these teams

The one thing I have learned is to NOT bet on my team. You will always believe that your team will win big.
If UGA gets up by 3 scores they will take their foot off the gas and let the 3rd string play by running the ball and eating clock. UGA will not embarrass a team that has 73 new players.

Knowing Kirby I'd bet double for them to win 38-0

Texas over Ohio St. straight up
QB advantage
Coach is equal
Defense advantage
Running Backs Advantage
Its possible they win by 20

Might want to lay off betting the Dawgs (4-10 ATS last year) including this gem from Week 2 vs Tennessee Tech (+52), won by 45.

Utah -6 @UCLA
Utah's defense will rattle Nico bad and UCLA's offense will never really get going in this game.

Brian Kelly winning the toss and taking the ball is my first lock.
Brian Kelly going for it on 4th down and 3 and not getting it instead of taking the field goal is my 2nd lock.
Brian Kelly banging the table at the post loss press conference is my 3rd lock.
