AUBURN -7 MY CFB *****BEST BET***** OF THE WEEK @5Dimes > Loss
***********************************************************************
Its been a very long time since I have made a selection and wager that I feel deserves this billing, as "Best Bet of The Week" this early, as there are scores of games every week. This selection "screams" a AUBURN win big. But my opinion is, I see no way that this line is going down. I am frustrated I did not make my selection and wager sooner as this morning, I could have taken advantage of laying -6 1/2 points, and I never dreamed the line would go to -7 this afternoon. Be that as it may, I think the odds of this line going back to (where I can shop) -6 1/2 is highly doubtful. So I am not taking any chances of having to decide if I want to lay anything higher than -7. Obviously I think this line, even at -7 is wrong (too low). While I would have loved to lay -6 1/2, I feel very comfortable laying the -7. I want to make a point that hopefully helps those who read this thread with this selection, that obviously me labeling this selection as My Best Bet of The Week, is no small task. I did so with doing as much studying and evaluating every bit of info and evaluating stats on each team as I possibly could. Starting two weeks ago, when I started really looking hard at this game, I still had to wait to include lots of stats that were not available until more games were played by both these teams. Several things have happened since I first keyed in on this game two weeks ago. I selected Florida, as you know and wagered on them, last week and lost when L.S.U. beat them. While that loss cost me, in the long run, it now comes back I think to help me. Had Florida beat L.S.U. this line probably would have been a tad higher. So that outcome I think will turn out to be a help to me regarding the line in this game. L.S.U. beating Florida, I think had far more of a influence on the line makers than did Auburn's recent success. To get to a few of the "nuts" and "bolts" I feel gives one a edge in this selection, is that I know L.S.U. has players, (running back GUISE, et al.) who are not 100%. However, L.S.U. does have other running backs that have made up for those players who perhaps came back too early. Just look at each running back's yards per carry vs. Florida. L.S.U.'s offense was a series of "big plays." In the absence of long controlled offensive drives, L.S.U.'s success I feel was basically several "big plays" that led to scores. L.S.U.'s defensive stats compared to Auburn's, speak for themselves, and you certainly have access to every stat I do. I am convinced Auburn can and will rush the football successfully in this game. Auburn will force L.S.U. to throw the football, and I simply see this L.S.U. QB having no chance on throwing against the pass defense of Auburn. I believe with all my heart, that Auburn can and will run the football against L.S.U. and I believe that no matter what L.S.U. does to prepare for Auburn's running game, they do not have the ability to stop Auburn not only from running the ball, but more importantly L.S.U. won't stop Auburn from controlling this game when Auburn holds the ball with long drives and eventually scores. I believe that L.S.U.'s defense will be on the field twice as long as Auburn's defense and that will be the key to my prediction, which is, AUBURN 39 L.S.U. 10.
