Las Vegas - Bring the heat. College football is coming at us with over 50 games on the betting board today, and we're gonna drop some cash in a couple of spots. Not sure I'm falling into a trap, but Oregon at PLUS 17 points against Georgia looks pretty tasty. Why? Two words, Dan Lanning.

Las Vegas - Gonna rock the college football board tonight. For a minute, forget about the superior ACC vs. the Sun Belt, and focus on a Virginia showdown between Old Dominion and Virginia Tech. ODU and VTech are at opposite ends of the state, about 280 miles and a five hour drive. The Monarchs play host and are a +6.5 point underdog (we bought at +7.5). Dominion doesn't have 100,000 fans tonight, but they'll seat 22,480 at S.B. Ballard Stadium and it will be NUTZ!

Las Vegas - College football on tap tonight and we're looking at some Over/Under action and will drop some cash on the 1st Q total in the Pittsburgh/West Virginia game. The total should be around 10.5 points, and the way Pitts offense rolls in home openers (106 points the last two years), OVER should be MONEY in the bank!

Someone turned on the money faucet and the game has PLUMMETED all the way down to pick'em. That's an EIGHT AND A HALF POINT MOVE, and that's quite a MIDDLE!

Las Vegas - Just a quick warning about following trends blindly. They DON'T always cash. Great example was this past Saturday when the Hawaii trend blew into the handicapping universe. The Rainbow Warriors had covered 11 of their last 12 home openers, and were getting a big fat PLUS NINE points against Vanderbilt. Easy money right? WRONG! The Commodores stormed Honolulu and didn't stop until they flew back home to Nashville with a GINORMOUS 63-10 blowout.
