The over reaction spots that sharps were betting mostly lost. Being OK state didn’t cover, Florida State didn’t cover, Vanderbilt didn’t cover, USC lost
Bigger Fraud LSU or Miss State? LSU just lost their homecoming game to Troy!!! Too bad we had to watch Mississippi state smoke LSU 3 weeks ago because it made us all think Mississippi state was good. Pathetic!!!
Duke vs Miami – What a bad game for Duke. They could move the ball but just couldn’t get into the endzone. They did not receive much help from the officials either may I point out. Miami had them beat in the Trenches at least on D… You could tell that Miami was the more athletic team in general. Miami should move up in the power ratings.
USC vs Washington State – Awful spot for USC. Their schedule wasn’t supposed to be hard in General but having 2 road games in a row with Cal and a short week to a friday night Wazoo team did them in. They certainly are not the power house that we all thought we knew at the end of last year. USC’s defense looks the same that they played in the Rose Bowl vs Penn state. Too many close games and this loss made it so they may need to run the table to make the playoffs.
Wisconsin vs Northwestern – Bad first half for the Badgers. Lots of turnovers and some bad coaching. Too much passing when the officials are swallowing their whistles. Just not a productive game plan for this game. Missing Fumagale was a huge loss and if I knew this beforehand i would not have taken this point spread. I also should have know the refs would call the game in order to keep it close. Pathetic. Happens every NU game vs the Badgers….
East Carolina and Utah State Overs will continually be bet until vegas catches up. In all honesty i was affraid to take UTAH state this week vs BYU. What a F Pussy I am.
Maryland vs Minnesota – Like I said. Why did the spread go up that much for a second string QB injury. Over Reaction! Maryland runs all over them for 256 yards. Row the boat is sinking….
Vandy vs Florida – Vandy really holding their own this game for a while. Then got beat by talent. The sharps got smoked this game. Lots of them had this as a big pick this week. More offense from both teams than expected though. Is florida now an over team???
Georgia vs Tennessee – Everyone said bad spot for Georgia. That may have been true but just having Butch Jones as their coach for the Voluntiers will always make it a much worse spot on them.
Clemson vs Va Tech – What can you say. Clemson’s defense is way to strong for most teams… They will coast to the playoffs
Oklahoma State vs Texas Tech – Wow, Tech is much better than I thought and their defense is better as well. Be careful betting those overs. Ok state is still in contention to win it all….
Florida Atlantic and Buffalo are teams that are being kinda ignored by Vegas. Florida Atlantic is about as good as a Northwestern in my opinion… Buffalo is 5-0 against the spread this year. They are my darling team for now….
Potential Let down spots
Clemson vs Wake forest – Will Clemson over look this team?
Washington state vs Oregon – Washington state may not match up against a team that plays a lot like them
Teams on Tilt
LSU vs Florida
Oregon st vs USC – I would hate to be Oregon state right now
Virginia Tech vs Boston College – May look at the over in this game

NFL – Bears vs Packers – Steelers vs Ravens – Redskins vs Kansas City – Jaguars vs Jets – Raiders vs Broncos – Saints vs Dolphins in London.
Not a great week for the Public dog. But not a great week of college football either…
Miss State vs Georgia – We really got this one wrong. I was definitely concerned when I hear so many sharps this week on Georgia. I was wishing the Notre Dame game was early because I may have bought back on Georgia when finding out that the Irish are for real this year. Not a great look for the SEC West this week minus Bama.
Bama vs Vanderbilt – There was absolutely no reason to watch this game after the first quarter. Bama will be rolling into the college playoffs. I am doing a money line roll over on Bama but it really isn’t paying much.
Penn State vs Iowa – Penn state failed to cover and barely won this game on the last play. Very exciting finish but it is looking like the Big 10 West is pretty solid all around.
San Diego State vs Airforce – Very close game like we thought it would be. San diego state got by the let down spot and major props to them. We missed the money line but hit a nice little middle on this buying back out Airforce +6.5 from San Diego State -3. They won by 4.
Michigan vs Purdue – I finally get to say Purdon’t again. but i am still very concerned that they are a good team. They lost this game in the trenches as predicted. I may be on Purdon’t next week.
TCU vs Ok State- The big 12 is who we thought they were. Okie’s defense finally let down. Lots of good teams that may beat each up so bad that they all may miss the college football playoffs. Major Props to TCU
UNLV vs Ohio state – JT Barrett Tebow is having a field day the last 2 weeks padding his stats and beating up on powerhouses Army and UNLV…. Wrong…..
Notre Dame vs Michigan State – Notre Dame got revenge and beat up on Michigan state. Bad look for the Big 10 east. Notre dame will give USC some problems when that game airs….
Florida vs Kentucky – The streak continues at 21 games. Florida won’t go away easily in that division.
Washington vs Colorado – Big game for Washington. They are poised to repeat and go to pack 12 championship game if not farther
In this episode we recap the highlights of week 4 in College Football. We also go over let down and look ahead spots as well as the Big 10 Power Ratings. We then later have Dave (Dnasty) go over Fantasy Football injuries, Waiver pickups and Break out Players.
The Public Dog is 27-17-2 in the NCAA and 6-5 in the NFL!
Cub Fan Danny is 6-2 in the NFL and we love this Card!
NCAA – Usc vs Cal – San Diego St vs Air force – West Virginia vs Kansas – Rutgers vs Nebraska – Florida State vs NC State – Nevada vs Washington State – Virginia vs Boise state – Arkansas vs Texas A & M – Utah State vs San Jose state -Duke vs UNC – Florida vs Kentucky – Michigan vs Purdue – Stanford vs UCLA – Miss state vs Georgia
NFL – Raiders vs Redskins – Rams vs 49ers – Broncos vs Bills – Cowboys vs Cardinals – Saints vs Panthers – Seahawks vs Titans – Bengals vs Packers
Trevor Siemian is for real – 4 Tds last game against cowboys passing for 4 TDs and 231 yards
JJ Nelson – TDs in both games and 7 targets
Ben Watson – 8-8 last game with 90 yards vs the Ravens
Samaje Perine – Rob Kelly’s injury could boost his value
Tarik Cohen – If you don’t have him by now, you are crazy
Jeff Janis – Could fill in for Jordy Nelson
Break out players:
Calvin Benjamin – Now with Greg Olson out, Cam will be forced to throw to WRs. Plus they play the saints this week. The saints D is the gift that keeps on giving
Martellus Bennett – Cincinnati is god awful. The packers will want and crush this team after their week 2 loss. I like Bennett this week in Jordy Nelson’s absence plus Vontez Burfect isn’t playing for the Bengals which could leave him wide open.
Jay Ajai – is playing the Jets and they have the worst rushing defense in the league allowing 185 Yards per game.
9-5-1 Last week. We hit all of our overs and unders.
27-17-2 total
Over all not a good weekend for sharps but not great for the General public either. The reason is because the sharps really took losses on games that did not have a huge public handle. Otherwise, USC didn’t cover, Stanford Lost, Washington didn’t cover, Alabama didn’t cover… This wasn’t a great week for anyone except well maybe us and the sportsbooks….
Winning Conferences – The big 10
Georgia St vs Penn State – Penn State enforces their will on Georgia State. They covered like the power house that they are. Their Defense once again allowing 0 points.
Wisconsin vs BYU – BYU was a sharp bet that lost. Wisconsin enforced their will on BYU using four running backs led by Jonathon Taylor. If Wisconsin can use 3 or 4 stud running backs to wear down big 10 defenses… Watch out. But if they can’t get 2 yards per carry vs Michigan then i don’t think that 20 Rbs would help them. Wisconsin Receivers looked awesome. Cephus and Davis out shined Jazz Peavy. Alex Hornibrook was a stud completing 19-20 passes breaking a Wisconsin record. If Wisconsin plays like this in the big 10, nobody is stopping them.
Army vs Ohio state – Ohio State back on track enforcing their will on Army but didn’t cover the spread by 1 point.
Air Force vs Michigan – Michigan still has passing woes. Great running game at least. Unders Unders Unders. They didn’t even come close to covering this huge spread of 24. Air Force may be a team to be on once again this year.
Purdue vs Missouri – Purdue winning out right vs SEC was the biggest story to me. We were on the money line here. Some sharps were on Missouri. David Blough 22-28 passing 1 TD. They found a solid running back in Tario Fuller. Jeff Brohm has really turned this program around and I will not feel comfortable when the Badgers play Purdue Oct 14. At least it is at home. Purdue is better than Northwestern.
Northern Illinois at Nebraska – The biggest loss for the big 10 was this by far. Nebraska started the game out poor giving up 2 defensive pick 6s to NIU. PATHETIC. Nebraska made this game close afterwords but could not dig themselves out of this one. They needed a 5th quarter.
The SEC- No major losses.
Tennessee vs Florida – Tennessee deserved to lose this game the way that they did. Florida had an awful strip of the ball that should have been a TD for Florida instead it was a touchback for Tennessee. Butch Jones is an awful situational game coach. He will blow a game in the most fashionable way possible. HELLO PREVENT DEFENSE WITH 9 SECONDS LEFT!!! How do you let someone beat you over the top???? Right before this happened, I told someone that I kinda wish Tennessee missed that field goal to tie the game because at least we could get a win ATS instead of a push or loss. We pushed on this one cause we got the line early at 6 but what an ugly game. Butch Jones is JUST AWFUL. If Butch Jones played Arkansas with Bret Beliema in a bowl game, the would call it the completely incompetent bowl. Nobody could win! Impossible
Auburn looked awful vs Tomato can Mercer. Auburn has a bad offense and beat them 24-10. How sad
Kansas State vs Vanderbilt – Pretty boring game if you like offense and there was some awful officiating. Vandy’s win is what made it for the SEC. Kansas State was robbed early by the penguins taking a way a defensive Touchdown. There was absolutely 0 evidence that QB Kyle Shermer’s knee was down on that fumble. The officials ASSUMED IT and they are supposed to go by actual video evidence.. This play turned the tides on Kansas State and set the tone of the game early. There needs to be more accountability for bad officiating in the NCAA and the NFL. Since I am ranting about this here is an idea, pay the officials $8,000 per game and have a performance caveat that you can be fined down to making $2000 a game with bad calls. That would clean this game up some in my opinion.
LSU vs Miss state – LSU’s defense looked so bad that I thought I might lose this under bet of 51.5 in the third quarter. I Thought that I might. Didn’t happen
Alabama didn’t cover vs Colorado state. Not really sure what that means. I think they are being Lazy.
Kentucky vs South Carolina – Kentucky beating Sharp Darling South Carolina was the biggest story in the SEC. I guess some people could see it coming because South Carolina was getting a lot of lucky bounces their way until this game. They were out gained in Yards the last 2 games yet were still 2-0. This time they lost when they gained 5 more yards than Kentucky. The tide has turned on them and the law of averages aligned. This was a bad bet for me and now we know a little bit more about Kentucky.
Purdue beating Missouri was The SECs biggest loss yet Missouri is just awful. They should have never switched from a Defensive mindset to an Offensive mindset in my opinion. It doesn’t fit well in the SEC
The ACC
Clemson vs Louisville – Clemson enforced their will on Louisville and pretty much secured a spot in the College football playoff. Even if they let down against Florida State or Virginia Tech, they are in. But not both…
Baylor vs Duke – The public won on this bet. Unless of course they decided to take it at -14.5. This game landed right on 14 and I think some sharps didn’t get the best of this number. This game unfortunately still begs the question, is Duke this good or is Baylor this Bad? Duke can be a disruptor in the ACC.
OK State vs Pitt – Pitt got destroyed. Mason Rudolph is as much of a Heisman contender as anybody after this game. No look ahead spot here I suppose! Me and the Sharps were. WRONG! I am pretty excited to watch them play more.
Miami????? When are they going to play again???
Florida State????? We miss you, please come back….
Losing conferences this week
The Pack 12 –
USC vs Texas. Will the Real USC please stand up please stand up please stand up. I am mad at myself for not betting this. Texas is much more motivated now and I think they are better than Maryland. This was a perfect Let down spot for USC. Do you know why i didn’t bet it and take the 17 points? Cause
Stanford vs San Diego State – What another huge let down for Stanford. Lost playing their own game at San Diego State. Playoffs are OVER for Stanford. I can see them still screwing over Washington’s hopes at some point. Maybe good to back them next week anyways we shall see
UCLA vs Memphis – Crushing Defeat for UCLA. Both teams scored a lot of points in this shoot out. Both teams had 3 turnovers but Josh Rosens late pick 6 is what did him in. I bet his critics were happy. Rosen is a gun-slinger with a big mouth. He reminds me of Geoff George. Riley Ferguson played every bit as well as Rosen throwing for 6 TDs and 396 yards. He is now a Legitimate Heisman contender
Ole Miss vs Cal – What a great win for Justin Wilcox. The only shining moment of the Pac 12 this weekend. People underestimated him at Cal this year and he already hit 2 money lines for us. Justin Wilcox is a CASH COW.
The Big 12 –
That K state loss vs Vandy really hurt the big 12. Look for Bill Snyder to fix some of the problems in that passing game this week.
Baylor vs Duke – Baylor lost by 14 points and is now 0-3. Safe to say the sharps will now be off of this team. I actually am not so sure. I think Duke is legit and Baylor may get better.
Wasn’t a complete loss for the big 12 because Ok State smoked Pitt, TCU took care of business, and Oklahoma decided not to play nice with Tulane. Shame on me for that one. Shame Shame Shame
Potential Let down spots for week 4!
Duke at North Carolina
Florida at Kentucky
Vanderbilt Hosting Alabama, interesting that they didn’t look past K state last week. I will be on Alabama this week
Miss St at Georgia
San Diego State at Air force
Cal hosting USC kinda a let down spot but i wouldn’t bet on it….
Purdue hosting Michigan – Purdue will be a public dog here guaranteed
Look ahead spots for week 4
Clemson vs Boston College – Clemson plays Va tech week 5
Va Tech vs Old Dominion
Miami Oh at Central Michigan. – Miami Ohio looking ahead to Notre Dame?
In this episode, the public dog recaps a great weekend of college football game and sports betting. We go over the Big 10 Power Ratings along with let down and look ahead spots. D-Nasty comes in with Fantasy Football injuries, wavier pickups, break out players and sleepers.
