Free Money 2.0
ND giving 20.5 to Pitt.
-ND is coming off of two tough games in a row
-ND played Pitt as an undefeated, top 5 team 3 times that I can remember. 1988 (30-20 ND win), 1989 (45-7 ND win), and 2012 (ND win in OT 29-26 that should have been a loss).
-Midterm week at ND, which typically leads to a sub-par performance.
The only thing that hedges my bet is that Pitt's passing offense is terrible. Book seems to have the offense humming, but ND typically doesn't cover monster spreads.

Take Tennessee 16..5.
Too easy.
Auburn can't score 16. :(

Only thing more tedious than Alabama fan is Alabama fan who continually poor-mouths the Tide. No one will come within 20 points of Bammer this season until the playoffs.

Re: Free Money 2.0
not buying Mizzou. would not get anywhere near a Bama game.
Pitt and Tenn suck....i don't think i could take them.
props the NW pick in free money 1.0 though.

Re: Free Money 2.0
You know, I was thinking a not-so-terrible betting strategy might be to latch on to the advice of a few different fans of teams who know their squads' tendencies and roster situations inside and out, but can also be objective with their analysis and predictions.
So, I'll take Pitt this Saturday and see how this plays out. :grin:

Re: Free Money 2.0
Props to everyone in this thread for the solid insider info.
Well everyone except Sam, that is. Though I’m sure none of us were foolish enough to take Mizzou in the Pick’em based on his advice. :doh:

Re: Free Money 2.0
that's funny.....i gave up on the ACC a few years ago. too weird. :grin:Papa Willie wrote: Killian - normally I'd go with you on that, but you'll never see me pick on a Pitt game. In picking games going back into the 70's, there are no two teams that have fucked me in the ass more than Syracuse and PITT. Now - if I don't pick on the game, you'll be safe. I don't plan on it, so you should be okay.

"Take Tennessee to cover next week. We're down to a bunch of lowly 4-star recruits in the secondary and our backup QB is only 26-2 as a starter. Beyond that, we're forced to play our backup right tackle who's ONLY expected to be drafted in the 3rd round. We'll be lucky just to win another game!"
