Alf M's College Football Week # 8 Early Plays Early Plays
[B]156 Georgia -3[/B]
Most cappers/trend players will point out how deadly HC Meyer is with a week off to prepare. However, it is much easier to practice when your team is doing well and eager to play. Florida has lost it's L3 games and now they face a hot Georgia team that is confident and playing their best football right now since the return of WR AJ Green a top future NFL draft pick. Also, GA gets RB King back in the line-up after a 2 gm SUSP.
[B]170 Texas A&M -5[/B].......line is now -7 across the board. I would buy the half pt to -6.5, or near post time the scalpers will buy it back a little.
Common sense handicapping applies in this matchup. A&M destroyed T Tech LAST YEAR 52-30 in Lubbock, TX. T Tech is down at least 10 points on a power rating scale and as we have bet against T Tech their defense is horrendous and I envision A&M scoring 35+.
[B]183 Washington State +21[/B]
Wash St QB Jeff Tuel improving each game, LW 21-28-298 yds 4 TDs vs Stanford. Arizona St QB Threet left LG with a concussion, back-up Szakacsy was 8-17-52 yds with one INT.

[B]136 Texas -7[/B]
The effort and performance that the Longhorns showed against Nebraska is far superior to anything that Baylor has done on the field this year. Baylor just played Kansas State and struggled with the overrated Wildcats, but the fact that they put up 47 points looks fabulous on paper and combined with Texas' loss to Iowa State gives us tremendous value here. Baylor surrendered 45 pts at Texas Tech, the Longhorns also at Texas Tech only gave up 14. That is the real difference between these two squads.
