Whoever loses might not be as good as everyone thought and heading for a down year against a tough schedule.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oregon State vs. TCU (-13 across the board)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This one might be closer than expected as the Beavers certainly have the talent to test the TCU defense.\u00a0 What does it mean if TCU blows them out or loses?\u00a0 Love these early season make or break games.\u00a0 I will be watching but will pass on the wager.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LSU @ North Carolina (+1 to +1.5)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For a team with a couple of recent national championships LSU sure is an afterthought this season.\u00a0 I guess that is what inconsistent QB play will do to you.\u00a0 That is UNC\u2019s problem too but their defense is so good it is likely to pitch a few shutouts&#8230;if everyone stays eligible.\u00a0 There is a lot swirling in Chapel Hill these days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Navy @ Maryland (+6.5 to +7.5)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I know Maryland isn\u2019t very good but I love the respect for the Naval Academy.\u00a0 Its week 1 and they are on the road against a desperate BCS sqaud and they still draw a TD advantage.\u00a0 They will probably win by 3 TDs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Boise State vs Virginia Tech (+2.5 across the board)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Again another respect game given Boise is favoured in VT\u2019s backyard.\u00a0 The Broncos are surely very good but it is different putting them into a BCS game after a perfect season as opposed to assuming they will be perfect by ranking them in the top 5.\u00a0 The Hokies are no pushovers.\u00a0 I am going to watch this spread until just before kickoff then make up my mind.<\/p>\n<p>CHECK OUT OUR <a href=\"\/forums\/college-football-betting\/\"><strong>College football betting forums<\/strong><\/a> today!
