CFB RECORD 28-17 +$4970.00
$1200.00 -106 Wake Forest (-3.5) over Virginia (3:30 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 8)
The Demon Deacons are getting healthy and I think that they are ready to put a beating down on a Virginia team that has been playing way, way above its head over the last month. Besides a curious win over Georgia Tech, the Cavaliers have not played well on the road this year, losing at Duke and at Connecticut by a combined 76-13 score. I think that Virginia’s overtime loss to Miami at home last week has kind of burst their bubble. UVA has been outgained in two of its last three games and are facing a team looking for revenge from last year’s one-point loss. Wake Forest is 15-7 ATS in its last 22 games against a team with a winning record while the Cavaliers are 7-15 ATS in their last 22 road games. Wake Forest has covered three of the last four meetings and I think that they will easily manage a double-digit win in this key ACC clash.
$600.00 -106 Alabama (-3) over LSU (3:30 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 8)
The Crimson Tide have the muscle up front to counter the strength of the Tigers. But the key to this play is that Alabama has a severe edge at the quarterback position. That's been a drag on LSU all season and I think it will come into play here as well. LSU's weakness is in the secondary and I think that John Parker Wilson will have little trouble moving the ball against the Tigers secondary. LSU has gotten hammered by both of the top-tier SEC teams (Florida, Georgia) that they've played. I think they should be getting at least a touchdown here.
$400.00-107 Georgia (-11.5) over Kentucky (12:30 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 8)
The Bulldogs were humiliated in Jacksonville last weekend but I have confidence in Mark Richt’s ability to get his team refocused. With the exception of a game at South Carolina, all of UGA’s wins this year have been by double-digits. Kentucky has been outgained in four of its last five games and I think their 6-3 overall record is a little bloated. I think that the Wildcats’ shaky quarterback position will come back to haunt them in this game and the Bulldogs are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games against a team with a winning record.
$200.00 -108 Nebraska (-1.5) over Kansas (2:30 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 8)
I think that this line is an indicator that we are on the right side. Kansas is the better team and is ranked, but the oddsmakers have instilled the Huskers as a small favorite. Why is that? I think it's because the Huskers are primed for a signature win. This line steamed from its opening of +3. The Huskers lost by 37 in Lawrence last year and I think they will get revenge.

Larry Ness' Las Vegas Insider-CFB
(4-0 run w/Insiders since last Saturday)-Sat game
My Las Vegas Insider is on Air Force at 6:00 ET. CSU head coach Sonny Lubick recorded 10 consecutive winning seasons from 1994 through 2003, winning (or sharing) six conference titles during that span. However, his program began to dismantle in 2004 (4-7) and after finishing 6-6 in 2005 after a bowl loss, his Rams went 4-8 and 3-9 the last two seasons. He was forced to resign and Steve Fairchild, a CSU alum, is the new coach. Fairchild was an OC with the Rams ('03-'05) and Bills ('06-'07) but he hasn't had too much offensive success this year, as the Rams are averaging a modest 24.3 PPG (71st). QB Billy Farris is no better than average, completing 63.4 percent for an average of 217.1 YPG with 12 TDs and seven INTs. The team's running game nets just 124.0 YPG (3.6 YPC) and is dependant solely on Gartell Johnson (848 YR / 4.7 YPC), as no other player has 150 yards on the year. The defense has allowed 32.7 PPG (105th) and has really struggled against the run, away from home (more on that in a little bit!). Air Force head coach Troy Calhoun (like Fairchild, an alum of the school he now coaches) knows about replacing a legend, as he took over at Colorado Springs last year for Fisher DeBerry. However, unlike Fairchild this year (CSU is 4-5), Calhoun found immediate success with Air Force, winning nine games and leading the Falcons to a bowl game in 2007, after Air Force had endured three straight losing seasons. Calhoun's continued that success in '08, as the Falcons enter this game 7-2, having only lost to Utah (the Utes are undefeated and ranked No. 8 in the BCS entering their Thursday game with TCU) and Navy. Utah needed a TD with under a minute remaining to edge the Falcons 30-23 and Navy used two blocked punts (both returned for TDs) to beat the Falcons 33-27, despite the fact that Air Force outgained Navy 411-244! Freshman Tim Jefferson has taken over at QB for the Falcons after the Navy game and Air Force is 4-0 SU (3-1 ATS) under his leadership, while averaging 25.8 PPG. He doesn't throw much (doesn't need to), as the Falcons rank fourth in the nation with 274.4 YPG (4.3 YPC). What is so impressive about the Falcons' running game is this, that seven players have between 229 and 417 yards rushing on the year. Consider this. CSU has played four games away from Fort Collins this year (includes a game at Denver vs Colorado), allowing 223.8 YPG on the ground and 6.5 YPC! The lone win in those four games came over sad-sack San Diego State (and just barely, at 38-34), as the CSU defense allowed an average of 40.8 PPG in the four contests. Calhoun's team ran for 385 yards (5.6 YPC) last year at Fort Collins, as his Falcons beat the Rams 45-21. Here at home, where he's 8-2 SU (7-1 ATS), he should have little trouble against a CSU team coming off a very disheartening loss last Saturday. The Rams twice took 4th-quarter leads over BYU last Saturday (at home) but both times the Cougars were able to respond, the final time with just 22 seconds left, handing the Rams a 45-42 loss. As for Air Force, a win here moves them to 8-2 which is very important, as the team's final two games are against BYU and at TCU (not sure the Falcons can win either of those games). The last five years the SU winner of this game has won by an average margin of 17 points and that sounds about right to me in this one. Las Vegas Insider on Air Force.
Good Luck...Larry
