JIMMY THE GREEK SAYS

The opening odds start here
(2) Ohio State -37.5 over Purdue:
The Buckeyes (7-1) looked lackluster a few weeks ago at home vs. Nebraska but got their focus together late in the second half and escaped with a victory. Then last week they showed why they are capable of ending up with a place in the Championship seat in the 12 team CFP playoffs by getting past Penn State 20-13 at Happy Valley with an incredible defensive effort despite the Nittanies scoring the first 10 points. Purdue has been consistently bad in both sides of the ball at 1-7 and despite receiving a ton of points at the shoe have one of the more lackluster offenses in the country and as long as Ohio State knows the stakes in where they stand, they should roll here.

(8) Indiana -14 -120 over Michigan:
Rourke shows no ill effects of his injury against Michigan State and his Hoosiers (9-0)are poised to remain perfect when they host the defending champions. Michigan (5-4) is not as good defensively as last season and it will be a struggle to get bowl eligible. They have had trouble playing up to their competition and turnovers have been a major part of their worst efforts on offense.

Best of luck to all in week 11
YTD 14-7 .667 +6.10

Jimmy, I'm rollin' with Buckeyes - 27.5, Hoosiers -4, and Deamon Deacons +17.5 on my 10 point teaser at the HardRockBet (those Seminole Indians have Florida betting all locked up)!

By results, Indiana should be #1. Blowout every game. Nobody else can say that. But I think they are a lie and that makes Michigan a live dog. If Indiana blows them out, they will have a chance to prove they are the real against Ohio State.

Michigan is a game I have circled, need to do some more thinking, think their D can keep them in it, but they're miserable on offense, IU very good but haven't played anyone, my concern is the Wolves can't play from behind, if they get down a couple of scores, it's lights out, they need to play with the lead or keep it a one score game to have a chance, if you had told me before the season that I could get the Wolves +14.5 against IU I would have had you drug tested, but here we are, and I'm having a tough time pulling the trigger

I think Missy is the right side since I don't trust Beck, but I also don't trust Lane in a big game, Kirby coaches in these several times a year, UGA still very good, but down a notch, should be a tight one, I like the Under, but I suck at totals, so the game will fly Over

I'm on Wash at a better number than you laid, would be nice if the game lands 13, since it's not a big game, Franklin will win, but think the Huskies can hang

Against you here as well, BYU overrated IMO, Utah has been one of the most disappointing teams in the country, and once Rising went down they have no QB, but they still play pretty good defense and Whittingham will have his boys ready, this is the Ute's Super Bowl, I'm also getting a better number than you laid, a 3-4 point win would be lovely

Strength of schedule completely rules this out as a possibility. I see the jinx factor has returned posting under my space.

If you support as to why you're going the other way, I'll respect your perspective more and accept your stance See kane's post.

Am I the only one with balls to lay 37.5?

Wait, I already know the answer to that question.

Back in 14 minutes.

Make it 130 straight minutes that the Buckeyes haven't allowed an offensive TD. OSU pitches a shutout despite not looking their best.

The Miami lie is finally over. Their idiot coach calls a timeout on a punt after the 2 minute warning. Didn't matter because GT got a 1st down. If they were stopped, would have mattered. He's a fucking idiot. Had 3 minutes to prepare for a fake punt.

Dare I post Indiana may take the whole thing? If they beat Ohio State, they are #2. If they beat Oregon, they are #1.

I'm not sure they could win either one. Ohio State didn't look great today but they imposed their defense and forced Purdue mistakes and shut them out. Michigan played a fairly dominant second half and limited Rourke and the offense to just 3 second half points and negative 2nd half yardage for 24 minutes. Dillon Gabriel has been lights out all season and could take the Heisman behind a solid running game and one of the best defenses in the country. I will go out on a limb to say I don't think Indiana could beat either and 2 losses likely costs them a top 12 bid.Call me crazy but I think Notre Dame, Penn St, and Tennessee could benefit from all of this.

Where Kane was right:
I ended up on the Wolves +14.5, the game played out exactly as I thought, Mich offense is bad, but their defense was good enough to keep them in the game, the longer IU goes undefeated, the more pressure they're playing with each week

Missy was indeed the right side, didn't play it due to Kirby over Lane, but I cashed with the Under. As I posted, I'm bad with totals and rarely play them, but this one was an easy Under

Utah the clear right side, they should have won the game, BYU trailed the entire game and the gap would have been wider had the Cougs not had a kickoff return for a TD, and at the very end the refs gifted them a first down calling a holding penalty after a 4th down sack that would have ended the game, the Cougs took that gift and marched down the field kicking a game winning FG with seconds remaining, the Utes got the money but should have won SU

Where Kane was wrong:
I thought Wash would give PSU a tougher game, their metrics show they're better than their record, and PSU in a bubble burst game, but they couldn't get anything going on offense and the game was never competitive

I never play a favorite, but I don't know how Utah shows up next week, they left everything on the field last night, as brutal a loss as you'll see, this one has the makings of a Fezz ML Colorado play
