Just in case no one has noticed the basketball has heated up, and off to a good start. Now I'm looking to get my NFL turned around so I can have profits in all four areas. Again best of fortune to all!!!

116* Michigan State +2.5
Michigan State is looking to lock in a bowl spot with a win here today. Penn State is 2-2 on the road this year, and one of those wins came last week against Temple. This game means very little to Penn State, and being it’s a second consecutive road game I don’t believe we’ll see a sharp Lions team here. Michigan State is scoring 36 PPG at home and are 4-2, and have actually played very competitive of late. Lost by 7 to then #1 OHST, brain farted at Iowa losing by seven, and lost by four to Michigan before whipping Purdue last week. That win should be the boost this team needs to get past Penn State.
116* Indiana +2
One of the most improved teams in the Big 10 looks to close out the season with the Old Oaken Bucket. Purdue has held on to it long enough, and I feel Indiana will step up to the plate after the tough loss to Northwestern last week. They’re scoring 36 PPG at home with a 4-2 mark. The losses came to Penn State and Illinois. They actually outgained Purdue in last years contest, but untimely turnovers where the death of them in the end. Historically the Boilermakers haven’t responded to well coming off losses as favs at home, and quite frankly I don’t think the Old Oaken Bucket means as much to them since they’ve had it for a few years now. Away from home they’re allowing 32 ppg and 432 total yards/road game this year. I like that when my team is so good at home this year, and can score with anyone. In the end this should be Indiana’s day as they get a bowl bound win here.
116* Buffalo pk
Hey after they won for me two weeks ago I’ve become a fan of Gill Turner’s Bulls from Buffalo University. They’ve had a great season by their standards, and a close out win at home would be huge for the players and coaches. Quarterback Drew Willy is doing what he can to get this team over .500 by completing 68% of his passes for over 2,000 yards. Typically the Falcons from Bowling Green have struggled with teams that complete a lot of passes. Bowling Green is allowing 35 PPG on the road this year going 3-3. Buffalo is 3-1 at home this year with zero losses coming against conference foes. They’re 4-2 in the conference this year winning by seven points per game. This will be their last home game, and have had an extra week to prepare for the Falcons offense. To me it all sits up nicely for a Bulls win.
116* Arkansas -11
This will be McFadden’s last home game for the razorbacks, and they should catch Mississippi State in a very flat spot off the heels of the Bama win and Ole Miss on deck. Arkansas is outscoring opponents 41-20 at home, and while the Bulldogs are improved they still aren’t there yet. I just don’t see that there is any denying the McFadden & Jones in this one. The Razorbacks are 21-2 in Little Rock since 1998. Who wants the points here to only HOPE Miss St. holds on for the cover? Arkansas won by 14 last year at Mississippi State. I’m sorry I gotta lay the double digits here, and wish Arkansas all the best.
I have been eyeing Buffaloe all week but haven't pulled the trigger on them, thought I was a loner on that one. I got it at +1 so I am with you on that one. I am also going with UCONN coming off a loss against a crappy Cuse team, I am against you on Purdue only because Indy does poor against teams who throw alot, I hadn't marked MSU and Ark but I like them and going to put them in the mix somewhere. My other plays for the day are:
How about Indiana guys? That was a heluva game. No quit in those fellas, and very emotional win for them. It was a great game as Purdue showed some heart as well.
Buffalo lays some kind of an egg today. Not sure how you only score 17 points against a Bowling Green defense. Anyway you an't win them all, and I'll take the 3-1 anyday!
Speaking of laying an egg, I have resulted to chasing tonight. Will get em back tomorrow. Started out strong with Ark and UConn and took it on the chin from there. Marshall hurt me for the second time in two weeks. NFL (which for me means Need F***ing Loot) on Sunday for me

Hang in there brother. You'll be okay, but becareful chasing.
Both teams make their second appearance of the season on Monday Night football. Denver lost to Green Bay at home while Tennessee won at New Orleans. The thing that stands out to me is Denver’s lack of a run defense allowing 4.8 yards/carry taking on a Titans team that ranks forth in the league with 139 yards/game. Give HC Jeff Fisher control of the clock and more times than not he’ll get his team a win. Denver’s offense has a key injury in the wide-out spot, two starting offensive lineman, and RB and former Titan Travis Henry who is injured and possibly suspended. Titans sack leader Haynesworth is questionable, but that Titans defense has been pretty good this year. Tennessee defense is holding teams to just 77 yards rushing/game and 270 total yards per game. Good enough for me, and I’ll go with the Titans plus the small number.
