Dick’s Picks: Week 1 Primer

And we are back!! Year 2 of #dickspicks gets back up and running again. Hoping to keep that 57% record on the big games churning and give the people some winners. Whole different landscape this year with college football moving to 12 teams so there will be a lot more games that may have not mattered in previous years. And it also gives us….. MORE FOOTBALL! Bowl season has kind of turned into a shitshow with all the opt outs and what not but now with teams hosting playoff games it will just be beautiful. Just imagine Death Valley, the Big House, Neyland and even the diddle palace (womp womp). (Make sure your prepubescent boys are always in your sight that day and definitely stay away from Chuck E Cheeses)

But UGE year ahead for us. Group of 5 now gets a seat at the table and the conferences just don’t make any sense anymore. Stanford and Cal are now in the ATLANTIC Coast Conference, yeah that one makes sense. It’s going to be awesome when Stanford divers have to take a cross country flight and they belly flop into a Miami pool 3 times and then have to get their sorry asses back on the plane. But I digress, football is back. Actually a decent slate for week 1. Got some games with playoff implications, 3 ranked matchups this week and more importantly, a FULL SLATE TO GAMBLE ON. I won’t be writing up the USC/LSU game in this blog but have to give that a shoutout being  the standalone Sunday night game. Well done schedule makers, hat tip to you fellas and ladies for giving us a good one to close out the summer. But let’s get into it. These will be somewhat short because it's all projections and returning production And nothing brings me pleasure than doing the first handicap on….. Drumroll please……… The State Penn “We keep our hands to ourselves” Nittany Lions.

#8 State Penn vs Country Roads (State Penn -7.5 O/U 50.5, 12PM FOX, BIG NOON KICKOFF)

If my disdain for State Penn, Oops sorry, that institution is actually called Penn State, hasn’t shown through you may have gotten the same PSAT score for critical reading as sophomore or junior that I got.  It was a 440, pretty sure you get a 400 for putting your name. My mother told me that kids that English was not their first language probably did better than me, sadly, she was probably right. 

It’s no more excuses for James Franklin at this point. They have gotten snubbed here and there with the CFP Playoff but for the most part they just haven’t been able to beat the big boys when it matters. This year they avoid Michigan and have a manageable schedule. If they don’t make the playoff, I don’t know what you do with this man.

Now for his team. He’s never had an issue with getting talent. And that has always been apparent with the defense and I think it will be no different this year. Headlined by LB/EDGE Abdul Carter. He’s a freak, he will be playing on sundays and somebody is going to give him the big bucks. But there is still a ton of talent all over the place. The defense was elite last year. Now they do lose 3 very good corners but they go to the transfer portal and get AJ Harris from Georgia who will most likely step in and play on day one. I think they take a slight step back because the defense was insane last year but they will still be very good. Now the offense on the other hand. EHHHHH, not so much. Drew Allar had a lot of hype coming into the year. And it was not fun to watch. Again, they beat up on the little guys and pooped themselves against the big boys. Now I don’t think it's all Allar’s fault, play calling is definitely part of it, but at some point you got to go watch and educate yourself about this invention called the forward pass. It's groundbreaking and innovative! And it's been around for over 100 years! Nifty! But this is a whole new outlook. They bring in Kansas’s OC Andy Kotelnicki. If you haven’t been watching the Kansas offense it is beautiful. Now if he gets it going in Penn State is another question. I don’t think this is an immediate turnaround and we will see some progression as we go. The one thing that I don't love is the loss of 3 starters on the O-line who were all drafted. Now they do recruit great but I think replacing 3 Starters drafted to the NFL and only returning 45 career starts is something to be concerned with.

Now the no excuses with James Franklin and the potential hot seat this year is where Neal Brown was last year. Pretty much flirting with mediocrity and he certainly turned it around. He started calling plays and things started to move in the right direction. 9-4 is quite the turnaround from years prior. So the question is can they keep this momentum going. And from the returning production it looks like the offense definitely has the potential to keep it going. Garrett Greene returns after an awesome 2023 with 2400 passing yards and 700+ rushing yards along with his 4 of his top 5 pass catchers and their top two rushers. The one thing that does bring a little concern is the loss of two stalwarts on the offensive line in Doug Nestor and Zach Frazier. C Zach Frazier was an All American and had 46 career starts and T Doug Nestor had 52 Career Starts. So huge holes to plug on the line which may be an issue with facing this Penn State defense. Now on defense they weren’t as great but were super opportunistic and great at creating havoc. Great at creating TFLs, Sacks and breaking up passes. The big loss here is Beanie Bishop who was a second team All American and was a PBU machine with 18 along with losing their top tackler in Lee Kpogba. They went out to the transfer portal to address their CB issue and did a decent job but you wonder if that will be enough to replace Bishop’s production. They should be okay up front but definitely lose some production and added some d-line for depth.

Handicap

Now I think a huge part of this handicap is that this game is being played at West Virginia opening weekend of college football. Morgantown should be absolutely bumping and I think to expect Drew Allar to perform with a new offense in that atmosphere is a lot to ask for. Not that he hasn’t been in an atmosphere like this before but this is week 1 with a brand new offense. I think it silly to not take that into consideration. Now on the other side this State Penn defense should travel well. And should be able to match this West Virginia rushing attack. It was the number 1 rush defense in the country. And pretty much returns the whole front. Where to potentially attack this Penn State defense, I say potential because these corners could end up being plug and play, would be in the secondary. And Garrett Greene last year showed that along with his legs he was also a very effective passer. Even with State Penn losing Chop Robinson (1st Round Draft Pick) & Adisa Isaac (9 Sacks), they still have Dani Dennis-Sutton who had 5 sacks and Abdul Carter moving down to the edge. Can West Virginia hold up against them while losing their stalwarts? I think it will probably go back and forth but if State Penn is able to stop the run and they know it's a passing down, it gets a little scary for West Virginia. I will probably sprinkle  West Virginia on the ML just because it's week 1 and you never know what is going to happen. But I think with this new Penn State O-line along with their new offensive scheme and the Penn State defense being able to match the West Virginia offense and that run first mentality, I’ll be on the under. Not fun because I am going to a social gathering with some Mountaineers Grads but I'll be rooting on the neers. On my dead grave before I would be rooting for State Penn.

Bet: State Penn/West Va U 51 -114 Win 1u (BetRivers)

#1 Georgia vs #14 Clemson (Georgia -12.5 O/U 48.5, 12PM ABC, AFLAC Kickoff Game)

Story of two different programs going in two different directions. One evolving with the college football landscape and one refusing to accept it. Although Kirby doesn’t necessarily have to use the transfer portal because they recruit so well, they do add pieces that he believes will help their team. And on the other hand, Dabo just refuses to use it. And eventually the chicken will come to roost. Doing offseason analysis was so straightforward. Minimal work on Clemson. Didn’t have to research any external players  So I do appreciate that from Dabo. I don’t think you have turn into Deion and have a new team each year but it can supplement your roster to maybe plug holes that you may not be current roster might not have to be an elite program. 

With that being said there still is a ton of talent on this Clemson defense. You lose 5 guys off this defense to the NFL, but the cupboard is not bare. You still have LB Barrett Carter who will make a run at the Butkus award, 3 freshman All Americans returning and have returning production at all levels. It does scare me a little about the defensive interior when you lose two to the NFL (Tyler Davis & Ruke Orhorhoro, 1st and 3rd Team ACC respectively)  but you have Peter Woods who was a freshman All American and 5 Star DT who missed 2024 with knee injuries. And Clemson has been pretty good about producing great big men during Dabo’s tenure. One of the things that you need to have in order to win at a high level that doesn’t get talked about enough is ELITE line play and the talent is there for this defense to do it. Now on the offensive side of the ball it wasn’t great for the Tigers. OC Garrett Riley came over from TCU and everybody expected Cade Klubnik to have a great year. Well, that didn’t happen and this offense was 87th National in PPA and was 132nd in explosiveness (WOOOOF).  So you expect another year of Klubnik developing along with the whole offensive line returning which is good, and you return some good weapons. Will Shipley leaves but if you look they should have been giving the ball more to Phil Mafah who was great when he actually got the ball. At WR you lose Beaux Collins, see you later pal, but you get two very highly touted freshmen and Sophomore Tyler Brown had a decent sophomore season so you expect him to take a step forward and be the potential number 1. But this offense will go as Cade Klubnik goes. He really did not have a great year last year, and he will be the catalyst for this Clemson team this year.

And on the other side you have the Georgia Bulldogs. Just an absolute machine at this point under Kirby. I am going to say this, I know I have some Michigan friends who will not like hearing this. But the best team and you could argue the second best team in college football didn’t make the playoff last year. If Georgia doesn’t lose to Alabama and Oregon doesn’t lose to Washington I think Michigan could have lost to either one of them. Michigan had an advantage in the trenches against both Washington and Alabama teams. That would not have been the case against Georgia. And what does Georgia return, pretty much their entire Offensive line. The big loss is their center Sedrick Van Pran-Granger who was awesome, it is a big piece to fill but you have a feeling that Kirby and team will have somebody ready to go to at least play at their standard. QB Carson Beck is awesome. I was part of the dick riding train towards the end of the year and if he is great again this year and isn’t taken as the first QB in the draft then that GM needs to be fired. They do lose some weapons at receiver and TE, got to give Brock Bowers the love he deserves, but they go raid the transfer portal and get WR Colbie Young from Miami who is super explosive, RB Trevor Etienne from Florida who had over 750 rushing yards, he may be suspended for this game though, London Humphreys from Vandy and an under the radar pickup in TE Benjamin Yurosek from Stanford. And throw in my guy TE Oscar Delp that has all the potential (sprinkled a little dough on him to win the Mackey(Best Tight End in CFB)). Now the defense will still be great but lose some real production. More specifically in the backend. Lose 3 guys in the first three rounds to the NFL but you still have Malachi Starks who is an absolute STUD, runner up for the Jim Thorpe award and was a 1st Team All American. So that may be the weakness of this defense but you expect that the talent to rise through. It’s just that you can get that production from those 3 guys that you lost.

Handicap

Admittedly I think Georgia is going to win the whole thing this year and only really Ohio State & Oregon can challenge them from a talent perspective. I think it's more likely Oregon than Ohio State but that's a discussion for another day. So you try to take that bias out when you handicap games. The Clemson defense is probably a step behind the Georgia defense but not by much, and offensively you definitely have to give the nod to Georgia because of Beck and the weapons that they have. The big question here is how much do you believe in Cade Klubnik. The underlying metrics last year were really not great. If you think he takes a big step forward then Clemson +12.5/13 is probably the play and that to me is the rationale for sharp money. 

Now one thing to note, Georgia’s defense wasn’t as elite as it has been in year’s past and at times they struggled to defend the run. If Clemson can get the run game going with this experienced offensive line it does give them a way to keep this game close. Which leads me to the under. I think Clemson wants to use Phil Mafah to make the game easier for Cade Klubnik to build some confidence. There seems to be a lot of hype around these freshman wide receivers but I think to expect them to shoulder the load against Georgia in week 1 of the season is a bit much. Georgia does have some questions in the secondary but there is still some serious talent lurking. I think if Clemson has to match blow for blow what Carson beck can do this game gets out of hand. And on the Georgia offensive side of the ball. Clemson had its moments struggling with big run plays, part of that is because the back end was so good, teams had to run the ball. Georgia was super efficient, not necessarily super explosive, and they may not have their top 2 running backs meaning that their run game might not be as effective. Leading to more third downs and relying on Carson Beck to convert third downs. Which he is more than capable of but it makes for long drives and more time off the clock. Not fun to be rooting but I think that's the case. Also seems to be some sharp money behind and the public is 75% on the over so ill take my chances fading the public in Week 1. There is a world where georgia score 45 themselves, but at that case ill just accept the fact that Georgia is not here to play any games this year

Bet: Georgia/Clemson Under 49.5 -105 Win 1u (ESPN Bet) 

#19 The U vs Florida (The U -2.5 O/U 54, 330PM ABC)

Oh poor Billy Napier. If you want a chuckle go look at the Florida schedule. Somebody from Florida must want him fired and rigged the schedule lottery for them to get the schedule they got. BRUTAL. They play 8 preseason top 25 teams and depending on how good you think UCF is, it could be 9. Just insanity. So when you see their win total at 4.5 it's not because they aren’t talented it's because the schedule is insane.

The U brings in Cam Ward who I may not be as high on just because he is a turnover machine but the upside is certainly there. He is uber talented. I don’t know if it will go south quickly, but I have to give a shoutout to QB Reese Poffenbarger from UAlbany, putting the SUNY’s on the map, who transferred in after leading the FCS in passing. So I wouldn't hate if Cam Ward is loose with the ball and Mario gives him a crack at it. They also bring in stud RB Damien Martinez from Oregon State. He’s a beast, over 6 YPC and two years of over 1K + yards at Oregon state. 

But the more important part of this Miami team is how good these trenches on both sides can potentially be. These trenches are potentially Final 4 caliber good. And it makes sense, Mario Cristobal can recruit the big fellas. Their whole O-line was either all conference or honorable mention. They return their two two tackles, one 1st  team ACC & one Frosh All American, so you expect them to improve. They only lost their starting center but replaced him with a transfer from Indiana who has some solid experience. The defensive line is just as exciting. You bring back Freshman All American Rueben Bain Jr, get used to that name, they do lose some production from the starters but what they brought in from the transfer portal was very impressive. Tyler Baron From Louisville who had 41 pressures, Elijah Alston from Marshall who had 35 pressures, and then three big DTs from MTSU, NC State and Michigan State who were highly regarded. So if the trenches live up to the hype this team has a very high ceiling. 

Now the defense struggled against the pass last year, and they lose pretty much all production in the back end. They didn’t bring in much high end talent to replace those guys so there could be a problem again with the pass but the front may be able to guise that. 

Now I brought up the Florida schedule and last year if you read the blog I wasn't the biggest fan of Graham Mertz. He had one good game at Wisconsin and other than that was horrible the rest of the year. I think I called him Poopy Pants a couple times. A fitting insult from a “man” who just turned 30. But looking at the numbers he wasn’t as bad as I thought he was last year. Now do I think he is good enough to start in the SEC, yeah maybe, but he's not gonna set the world on fire. The one good thing this offense does have is their outside weapons. WR Eugene Wilson is poised for a big year after catching 544 yards as a freshman and TE Arlis Boardinham has some serious potential. And they added WR Elijah Badger from Arizona State who had over 700 yards. So this is definitely the strength of this team. Offensive line loses their two guards which could be a concern. 

As for the defense, they were not great last year. They lost their best player in DE Princely Umanmielen to Ole Miss. They lost a bunch of starters but brought in a bunch from the transfer portal. Safeties look to be their strong suit. But this defense has to improve from their performance last year or else this is going to be a long season with some of the offenses they have to face.

Handicap

Admittedly when I saw this line just based on ranking and Florida being a home dog, I thought I was going to be on Florida. I took Miami to win the ACC based on the potential of their trenches and how good Damien Martinez could be this year. Found him 30 to 1 to win the Doak Walker (Best RB in Country) which I thought was a little rich. I wanted to fade Cam Ward on the road but idk if Florida has the tools to do it. Essentially can you create pressure and force him into bad opportunities where his ball control becomes apparent or he makes a crazy throw. To me it starts with can you stop the run in order to put Cam in passing situations. This rush defense last year of the Gators was not great and they could not generate any pressure either. Now they do have a legitimate mountain in Desmond Watson (check out big number 21) but this offensive line should be able to move him and Florida lost their best pass rusher. If Miami is able to establish the run Cam Ward will be in less situations to turn the ball over. 

And on the other side. I am a little scared about this offensive line. TFLs and Sacks numbers were really bad and they bring back 3 of those guys and the lone transfer they bring in is from San Diego State. So I'm concerned for this Florida team. Now if the line is improved and can hold up, Graham Mertz and these weapons do have potential to have a big day. I am just not convinced about it. Big fellas win football games and while I love taking a home dog, I will side with the hurricanes. 

Now maybe I have bought into the hype here, but I just think if the Miami trenches are what they are believed to be, they will be the better team and that will show through. I also don’t really want to mess around with the spread with Cam Ward.  So will pay the juice with the ML. So help me god I'm betting on Cam Ward as a road favorite in week 1. This could blow up in my face so hard. But here we are

Bet: Miami -134 (FD) Win 1u

This is Desmond Watson. He is a large human being

#7 Notre Dame vs #20 Texas A&M (Texas A&M -3 O/U 46.5, 730PM ABC)

Probably the biggest game of the weekend other than LSU/USC on Sunday. Notre Dame has a relatively easy schedule and it lines up well for them to make the playoff. They host FSU at home, hopefully DJ U learns to throw a forward pass by then, Louisville at home but do have a tough game to end the year at USC,  a team that I think may surprise some people. So they are almost a shoe in for the playoff if they don’t mess it up. But it starts here at Kyle Field against Mike Elko who you could argue is one of the best defensive minds in all of CFB.

Notre Dame loses Sam Hartman and they went out and got Riley Leonard. He was hurt last year so his numbers weren’t all that great but the year prior, he was great. He’s a great athlete and you hope him having a full offseason that we see him at his best this season. They do lose RB Audric Estime who was tremendous last year and it looks like Jeremiyah Love and Jordan Price will split carries. The receiving core was super young last year but they get older, they do lose some of their young guys to the portal and their big get is Kris Mitchell who had over 1k yards from FIU. But one BIG thing to note, I know Notre Dame produces great lineman. They lose both their tackles and starting center. Guards should be very solid but it's definitely something to note going into the year. 

On the defensive side they have some elite talent in DL Howard Cross III, CB Benjamin Morrison and S Xavier Watts. All are All American good. But they lose some depth throughout this defense. I think the defensive line should still be very good, edge may not has as much depth as you want, but they lose 2 of their top 3 tacklers and their leader in JD Bertrand. Jaylen Sneed should be a bigger role who was very highly touted out of high school but its still some big shoes to fill. Secondary should be elite again. Do lose some contributors but did a very nice job in the transfer portal to backfill that loss.

Now for Texas A&M. It was kind of a shit show with Jimbo. They showed flashes of how good they could be but they could never get over the hump. They had a couple great recruiting classes and I think with all that talent being there Jimbo bought out for 77. 6 MILLION DOLLARS. 77.6 MILLION DOLLARS TO STOP COACHING, WHERE DO I SIGN UP. Enter Mike Elko to take over the reigns, who is awesome. If you can win at Duke you can win everywhere so this probably is definitely moving in the right direction. And what you can expect from Mike Elko, great defenses that don’t let up the big play and force turnovers. And I think with what they did in the transfer portal we can expect some of that. They got a great pull from the transfer portal specifically on the defensive side with Nic Scourton who had 8 sacks last year Purdue and was highly sought after. The defense was great last year and I think that keeps going. 

Now on the offensive side there were some musical chairs with QBs. Connor Weigman was very good when he played but he was injured early in the season and then it was Max Johnson who wasn’t anything special. They do lose their all world receiver in Evan Stewart, hell of a get for the duckies, but they did a decent job to recoup some talent in the transfer portal.  It could be interesting with the hire of Collin Klein as offensive coordinator since he might try to bring the Kansas State offense over but might not necessarily have the personnel to run it.

Handicap

Now this is right up my alley. Lower ranked team under 3 points with a team having some hype going into the season. The one wrinkle about this too, which I love, is who was Riley Leonard’s old coach…. Mike Elko, who is now … the head coach of Texas A&M. Doesn’t mean that he will necessarily be able to predict the play calls but he is aware of his strengths, weaknesses and tendencies. Riley Leonard is a tremendous athlete but at times he struggled throwing the ball. I think Elko is completely aware of that and has a really good game plan for that. Add in the fact with a new starting center, and 2 tackles getting their first real starts together at Kyle Field, Who Nellie. 

Now the one thing that does give me pause about this A&M bet and I touched on it above is this wedding of Connor Weigman and Collin Klein. The offense that Collin Klein comes from is for a more mobile QB and Weigman is more of a pocket passer and good at it when he can get it going. So will have to be cognizant of the play calling and this Notre Dame defense is no slouch. They have playmakers at all levels so it's not something that they will be able to ease themselves. Which also leads me to the under. I think this is a slugfest. Two very good defenses with two offenses early on trying to figure it out in a crazy atmosphere. Would not be shocked if the first team to 20 wins this game. 

Bet 1: Notre Dame/Texas A&M U 47.5 -115 Win 1u (FD), Good to 45

Bet 2: Texas A&M ML -150 Risk 1u (BetMGM), Have it in a round robin or else would go to Win 1u if I didn’t

This guy is getting paid 77.6 Million to not coach anymore. Somebody needs to get me in touch with his agent ASAP.

Best of the Rest (Some of these may be UGLY)

UConn/Maryland (Maryland -19.5 O/U 44.5, 12PM FS1)

This has the makings of being a really ugly game. Offenses that are definitely trying to figure it out and there may be some weather in college park. This could be the first to 17 wins in this game. This number keeps going down so i’ll be on the under. This is one that you put the bet in and just keep the alerts on and hope you don’t get anything. I will have some overs too, don't you degenerates worry about that.

Bet: UConn/Maryland U 45 -114 Win 1u (BetRivers)

Akron vs Ohio State (Ohio State -48.5 O/U 57.5, 330PM CBS)

I actually like this Akron team in the MAC just because that conference is a shitshow and they have some serious positive regression coming back to them this year. But they don’t have a good damn chance against this Ohio State team. Ohio State could run the ball every play and win by 50. I don’t know if Akron scores here either. I’ll be betting them at some point this season but this isn’t it. Saw this is the “signs” pick from Jersey Jerry to be on Akron. Jersey Jerry this might be a tough one to watch. 

Bet: Ohio State -48 -112 Win 1u (DK)

UTEP vs Nebraska (Nebraska -27.5 O/U 48.5, 330PM FOX)

I kind of like this UTEP team. They have some new excitement with their head coach coming from Austin Peay so they should improve but again just a bad spot for them. Pretty much no returning production on either line so they should get dominated. I don’t know if they score here. It will be QB Dylan Raiola’s first game so I think they keep it pretty vanilla here especially with Colorado on deck.  Maybe Nebraska covers this by themselves but I think if they get up by 28 or 35 they are just going to run the ball and kill the clock. So I'll take my chances. (Alright dude can you give us an over jesus christ)

Bet: UTEP/Nebraska U 49 -112 Win 1u (DK)

Colorado State vs Texas (Texas -34 O/U 60, 330PM ESPN)

Ah we finally got one! I like the over here. Colorado State defense is going to get shredded even if Texas doesn’t open up the playbook just because of their weapons and their offensive line. Colorado State loves to throw the ball and will just keep throwing it. Watch out for Tory Horton for Colorado State. He will be playing on Sundays and I wouldn’t be shocked if he puts up some numbers against this Texas secondary if they don't take him seriously. Add in the fact that Arch Manning is lurking so they will still be calling plays when he is out there.

Bet: CSU/Texas O 59.5 -110 Win 1u (ESPN Bet)

Ohio vs Syracuse (Syracuse -17.5 O/U 45, 330PM ACCNetwork)

Unlike Akron I am not a fan of this Ohio team. This Ohio team had a nice run in the MAC with the Rourke brothers at QB but they might have one of the lowest if not lowest returning production in the country. So this is going to be new MAC guys going against a newly rejuvenated Syracuse program. Now Sryacuse is going to be new as well but they should be able to handle their business. If they can’t it’s going to be a long season for Cuse.

Bet: Syracuse -17 -112 Win 1u (DK)

UNLV vs Houston (Houston -3.5 O/U 55.5, 7PM FS1)

This UNLV team is one of my favorite group of 5 teams. Regardless of whoever is at QB this offense should be very good. Houston is in a rebuild but this UNLV defense while improved is still not great. Think we get a competitive game here and have a chance for some points to be scored.

Bet: UNLV/Houston O 55.5 -110 Win 1u (ESPN Bet)

Fresno State vs Michigan (Michigan -21 O/U 45.5, 730PM NBC)

Lots of questions about this Michigan offense. We know they are going to run the ball but will they even attempt a forward pass. The defense should be elite. The offensive line needs to be figured out, so this may be really ugly. Fresno’s strong suit is their offense but this Michigan defense should handle them. This could easily be a 28 to 7, 31 to 14 game. Also add in the fact that Michigan is playing Texas next week so they won’t be showing anything. Michigan is just going to run the ball so this is a pseudo running clock. I’ll take another under here. I don’t even know if I will put this game on TV.

Bet: Fresno State/Michigan U 45.5 -110 Win 1u (ESPN Bet)

New Mexico vs Arizona (Arizona -30.5 O/U 58.5, 1030PM ESPN)

This may be the bail out special for some people. I hope that people aren’t in their bag watching this game hoping to get out of whole but there is always that possibility. This New Mexico team is not very good. People saw that last week they were competitive against Montana State. They probably should have won but they also scored two fumble recovery touchdowns. If they don’t do that they have 17 points against a Montana State team. Arizona should be able to dominate them. This could easily lose and get back doored but I’ll take my chances.

Bet: Arizona -29.5 -115 Win 1u (FD)
