What a Week 1 (and it's still not over). Some early attrition, but the creme always rises to the top.

As always, TideFans.com neither condones nor promotes any gambling of any kind. The numbers below are for entertainment purposes only.


  • After beating the 24.5 spread vs. Ole Miss this week, South Alabama is a 27.5 pt underdog at Oklahoma St. in a Friday night tilt.
  • Oregon is a 9.5pt favorite over Nebraska
  • Lane Kiffin's FAU Owls are a 31pt underdog to Wisconsin
  • Michigan St. is favored by (only) 7.5 over Western Michigan
  • Michigan is a 32.5 favorite over Cincinnati
  • Louisville is a 6 pt favorite over N. Carolina
  • Iowa is a 2 pt favorite over Iowa St.
  • UAB is a 12.5 pt underdog to Ball St.
  • Penn St. is a 16.5 pt favorite over Pitt
  • Despite winning their opener 66-0, Fresno St. will travel to Tuscaloosa as a 43.5 pt underdog to Alabama
  • Arkansas vs. TCU is a pick 'em
  • Despite Deondre Francois being officially ruled out, FSU is a 33.5 favorite over La-Monroe.
  • Despite Missouri giving up over 500 yards and 43 pts to an FCS school, they are still somehow a 4.5 pt favorite over South Carolina who defeated what is supposed to be a sleeping ACC giant in NC State.
  • Clemson is favored by (only) 6.5 over Auburn
  • No line yet for Georgia-Notre Dame due to the uncertainty of Jacob Eason
  • Miss St. is favored by (only) 6 over LaTech
  • Ohio St. is favored by 7 over Oklahoma
  • USC is favored by 4.5 over Stanford
  • No lines for Ole Miss vs. UT-Martin, Tennessee vs Indiana St., Vandy vs. Alabama A&M, Texas A&M vs. Nichols St., LSU vs. UT-Chattanooga, or Florida vs. Northern Colorado

I might take Fresno State in that spread. Seems like we're gonna be licking some wounds on defense and may concede a bit more than we normally do in games like this...enough to undercut the spread while winning big, ya know.


Expect the offense to be sharp because Saban is gonna be on their behinds over the sloppy performance in Atlanta.

There aren't too many times that Clemson is favored by less than 7 points at home. I can't pass on the opportunity.
My pick: Clemson (-6.5) vs. Auburn

Plus after these big games we never look great in game 2. No way Bama covers.

The line moved two points for Bama already - when I first saw it it was -41.5. Goodness, I wouldn't touch that with a 10' pole.

Despite Missouri giving up over 500 yards and 43 pts to an FCS school, they are still somehow a 4.5 pt favorite over South Carolina who defeated what is supposed to be a sleeping ACC giant in NC State.

SMH, Vegas rarely blows it but this one seems strange.

Clemson is favored by (only) 6.5 over Auburn

Ditto re: 10' pole.

Can we win by 43? Yes
Should we? Yes
Most years in the second weekend? No
This year? Yes

He wants to give the O some confidence. I'm guessing we run for 300 and pass for 300.

45-7 at half. And then he makes Vegas sweat with a 62-13 victory....with a late Walk on RB TD
