They are hitting 62% of their pass plays for 8.8 YPA in those home games. They have just 1 common opponent in Hawaii, but those game stats show similar results for both Boise and LT. The biggest factor in this game is that LT will be very successful running the ball and controlling the clock. Take Louisiana Tech.

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on Buffalo as they face Bowling Green set to start at 8:00 EST and can be seen on ESPN2. AiS shows an 80% probability that Buffalo will win this game by 4 or more points. An optional consideration is play a small not amount not to exceed 2 units on the money line and play 5 on the line.

Ai Simulator 15* graded play on Tennessee as they face South Carolina set to start at 7:45 EST and can be seen on ESPN TV. AiS shows an 86% probability that Tennessee will win this game by 7 or more points. I had Tennessee last week as they came so ever close to defeating number 2 tanked Alabama in Tuscaloosa. I am not surprised at all that the AiS would identity this matchup as an even stronger money making opportunity. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 23-4 against the money line for 85% winners making 21.9 units since 1999. Play on a home team versus the money line that is an average passing team gaining 175-230 PYPG facing a good passing defense allowing 130-175 PYPG and after allowing 5.5 or less passing yards/attempt in 2 straight games.

Play against favorites of 10.5 to 21 points and are excellent defensive teams allowing <=16 PPG facing an average defensive team allowing 21-28 after 7+ games and after allowing 17 points or less in 2 straight games.

Note that they are 15-2 ATS (+12.8 Units) in home games after allowing 75 or less rushing yards last game since 1992; 13-1 ATS (+11.9 Units) in home games after outrushing opponent by 200 or more yards last game since 1992; 19-3 ATS (+15.7 Units) in home games after outrushing opponent by 150 or more yards last game since 1992.

SF ranks first in the conference in pass defense and that is what will make things very difficult for WVU. The Mountaineers like to run the ball when they are extremely poor in executing pass plays. So, look for SF to play a
10-27-09	East Carolina v. Memphis +4	Top	38-19	Loss	-100	9 h 26 m	Show
Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Memphis as they host East Carolina set to start at 8:00 EST. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 71-35 for 67% winners since 2004.

Despite memphis having a losing record, ECU is an imperfect 0-6 ATS (-6.6 Units) in road games when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 3 seasons; 2-9 ATS (-7.9 Units) in road lined games over the last 2 seasons. Also supporting this graded play is a strong MONEY LINE SYSTEM that has gone just 40-47 for 46% winners, but has made a whopping 48 units since 1992. Play against road favorites versus the money line with an average defensive team allowing 21 to 28 PPG facing a below average defensive team allowing 28-34 PPG and after scoring 37 points or more last game. The average play for this game has been a +237 dog. So, this is analogous to playing Black Jack and getting paid $2.37 for every winning $1.00 hand played. That would never happen in any casino, but this system has produced very REAL results. Despite their contrasting records these are two near equal teams. They both will run a balanced offensive attacks. The big difference is that the Memphis defense matches up very well and they will be the reason that Memphis can pull off a possible upset win. Memphis has played a tougher schedule as well having played the 2 top teams in the division in Marshall and Southern Miss. Memphis is a lot better than their record indicates. Take Memphis.
10-24-09	Auburn +7.5 v. LSU	Top	10-31	Loss	-105	24 h 57 m	Show
Ai Simulator 15* graded play on Auburn as they face LSU set to start at 7:30 and can be seen on ESPN2. AiS shows an 88% probability that Auburn will lose this game by 7 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 35-6 ATS for 85% winners since 1992. Play on road dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in conference games off a upset loss as a double digit home favorite. LSU is in a series of poor situations that support Auburn and reinforce the AiS grading as well. Note that LSU is an imperfect 0-9 ATS (-9.9 Units) in home games when playing against a team with a winning record over the last 3 seasons; 0-7 ATS (-7.7 Units) in home games versus good passing defenses allowing 5.75 or less passing yards/att. over the last 3 seasons; 1-12 ATS (-12.2 Units) versus good rushing teams averaging >=4.75 rushing yards/carry over the last 3 seasons; 0-7 ATS (-7.7 Units) in home games versus excellent rushing teams - averaging >=5.25 rushing yards/carry since 1992; 1-8 ATS (-7.8 Units) versus good offensive teams scoring 31 or more points/game over the last 3 seasons; 0-6 ATS (-6.6 Units) versus good offensive teams averaging >=425 yards/game over the last 3 seasons. Miles is just 0-8 ATS (-8.8 Units) in home games versus good passing defenses allowing 5.75 or less passing yards/att. as the coach of LSU. The offensive line for LSU has been horrific allowing 11 sacks in the past 2 games against Florida and Georgia. The offense was miserable against Florida gaining the fewest total yards since playing against Arkansas in 2000. The offense had just 5 first downs on passing plays last week and QB Jefferson has not thrown a TD in 2 games. Take the Auburn Tigers.
10-24-09	Tennessee +14.5 v. Alabama	Top	10-12	Win	100	20 h 52 m	Show
Ai Simulator 15* graded play on Tennessee as they face Alabama set to start at 3:30 EST and can be seen on CBS TV. AiS shows an 85% probability that Tennessee will lose this game by 14 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 22-10 for 69% winners with the average play an incredible +230 on the MONEY LINE. Play against a home team versus the money line that is an excellent rushing team gaining >=4.8 YPR facing a team with a good rushing defense allowing 3 to 3.5 YPR after allowing 125 or less rushing yards in 2 straight games. Tennessee is lined at roughly 550 so an alternative wager is to add a 2* amount and play 9* on the line. That adds up to 11* total and reflects a solid risk/reward profile. AiS shows that Alabama will have between 300 and 350 total yards in this game. Note that Tennessee is a solid 14-4 ATS (+9.6 Units) in road games when they allow 300 to 350 total yards since 1992. Tennessee is also a strong 20-6 ATS (+13.4 Units) in road games versus good passing teams with a completion percentage of 58% or better since 1992; 23-8 ATS (+14.2 Units) in road games in weeks 5 through 9 since 1992. Tennessee is going to play a lot of zone defensive schemes and will add a man coverage situation with Evans cover Alabama WR Jones. Evans has exceptional size and is far more physical than Julio Jones has had to play against this season. Another key is that Tennessee is very fast to the ball and this will minimize Alabama

Army is just 0-6 ATS (-6.6 Units) when they allow 29 to 35 points over the last 3 seasons; 28-64 ATS (-42.4 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992. Take Rutgers.

AIS shows an 80% probability that SJST will lose this game by 16 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 20-38 against the money line, BUT has made a whopping 84.2 units since 2004.

AiS also shows a 92% probability that G-tech will score 28 or more points. Note that V-tech is just 9-35 ATS (-29.5 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992. G-tech is a solid 58-18 ATS (+38.2 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992. GT head coach Johnson is a solid big game coach noting that he is 16-5 ATS (+10.5 Units) when the line is +3 to -3 in all games he has coached since 1992. GT runs the spread option and this requires tremendous discipline form the defensive front 7 and linebackers. One of the best things that QB Josh Nesbitt does is to be very patient to wait for his OL to make the assigned block and then read what is next for the play. Also, look for them to run at first-year starters ILBs Barquell Rivers and Jake Johnson, who have yet to face a true option attack this year. B-back Dwyer is a strong downhill runner and the V-tech linebackers and DBs cannot react to quickly to pursuit otherwise a quick pitch to A-backs Jones, Peeples, or Allen will result in a score. I just don

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Oklahoma as they face Texas set to start at High Noon in Dallas. AiS shows an 84% probability that Oklahoma will lose this game by 3 or fewer points and has a 65% probability of winning the game. Much has been said in the media about the QBs and offenses, but based on my research it will be the Sooner defense that dominates this game. Sooners are 11-3 ATS (+7.7 Units) after 1 or more consecutive straight up wins over the last 2 seasons; 8-1 ATS (+6.9 Units) after a game with a turnover margin of +2 or better over the last 2 seasons; Texas just 6-18 ATS (-13.8 Units) in road games after 5 or more consecutive straight up wins since 1992. HC Mack Brown a sour 2-10 ATS (-9.0 Units) on a neutral field where the total is between 49.5 and 56 during his reign at Texas. For those of you who like the money line I would not add more than a 2.5* unit on the ML as an optional wager. Supporting this opportunity as well as the 10* play is an AiS projection calling for a 92% probability that Oklahoma will have between 250 and 300 net passing yards in this game. Note that Oklahoma is 16-2 against the money line (+14.4 Units) when they gain 250 to 300 net passing yards since 1992.

Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 37-36 on the MONEY LINE, but has made a whopping 53.6 units. The average play for this system has been a dog of +242. So, this is analogous to playing Black Jack at the casino and being paid $2.42 for every winning $1.00 hand played. Play on a road team versus the money line after 3 consecutive games where they forced 1 or less turnovers facing an opponent after a game where they committed 1 or less turnovers. Here is a 2nd system that has gone 33-9 on the money line for 79% winners since 2004. Play on a road team versus the money line off a no-cover where the team won as a favorite and is a top-level team winning >= 80% of their games playing a team winning 60% to 80% of their games. Rutgers is in a series of weak roles for this noting they are just 1-10 ATS (-10.0 Units) in home games after a game where they committed no turnovers since 1992; 3-15 ATS (-13.5 Units) in home games after a game with a turnover margin of +2 or better since 1992; 8-21 ATS (-15.1 Units) after a game where they forced 4 or more turnovers since 1992. Pittsburgh HC Dave Wannstedt is a perfect 6-0 ATS in road games in October games while at the helm of this team. Take Pittsburgh.
10-14-09	Boise St v. Tulsa +9.5	Top	28-21	Win	100	9 h 53 m	Show
Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Tulsa as they host Boise State set to start at 8:00 EST. AiS shows an 84% probability that Tulsa will lose this game by 8 or fewer points. This is going to be a big test for Boise State and a game that I see them quite possibly losing based on the AiS grading and summary projections. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 30-10 ATS for 75% winners since 1999. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after allowing 275 or less total yards in 2 consecutive games and with an inexperienced QB as starter. This system reflects a solid defense that supports a developing QB that many times is vastly under rated by the betting public. This system has also gone 12-3 for 80% winners over the past 3 seasons.

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on LA-Monroe as they host Arkansas State set to start at 8:00 EST. AiS shows an 80% probability that La-Monroe will win this game by 4 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 57-22 ATS for 72% winners since 2004. Play against home favorites off a win against a conference rival and is winning between 51% and 60% of their games on the season. Monroe is off a solid win against Florida International by the score of 48-35 and covered the 6.5 point spread as well. This team opened the season against Texas and managed to cover the generous 42.5 point number, but more importantly they scored 20 points and gained 298 yards on offense. Monroe has significant matchup advantages on the LOS, especially with their defensive line. I do not see Arkansas State being successful running the ball. State has had just 150 yards in their last 2 games gaining just 70 against Troy and 80 against Iowa. Iowa

Ai Simulator 15* graded play on Iowa as they face Michigan set to start on ABC TV 8:00 EST. AiS shows an 88% probability that Iowa will win this game by 10 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 33-4 for 89% winners since 1999. This system also underscores the projections produced by the AiS so even though it is a money line system it is quite valid. Play against road dogs versus the money line after having won 2 out of their last 3 games in a game involving two top-level teams winning >= 80% of their games. The Iowa defense and specifically the secondary will dominate Michigan

AiS also shows a 90% probability that TCU will out gain Air Force by a minimum of 2.0 YPP. TCU is 31-3 ATS (+27.7 Units) when they outgain their opponents by 2 or more yards/play since 1992. 92 % probability that Air Force will not get 150 or more net passing yards. TCU is 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) when their defense allows 150 or less net passing yards over the last 2 seasons. 88% probability that TCU will score 28 or more points. TCU is 8-1 ATS (+6.9 Units) when they score 28 or more points over the last 2 seasons. 88% probability that Air Force will not score more than 14 points in this game. Note that AF is just 4-29 ATS (-27.9 Units) when they score 14 or less points since 1992 and TCU 15-4 ATS (+10.6 Units) when they allow 14 or less points over the last 3 seasons. AF is also a weak 5-19 ATS (-15.9 Units) vs. excellent passing teams averaging 8.5 or more passing yards/att. since 1992. Take TCU.

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Louisiana Tech as they face Nevada set to start at 9:00 EST and can be seen on ESPN and ESPN360. AiS shows an 82% probability that L-tech will lose this game by 10 or fewer points. AiS also shows an 86% probability that L-tech will score 28 or more points in this game. Note that L-tech is a solid 43-15 ATS (+26.5 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992; Nevada is just 28-51 ATS (-28.1 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone an incredible 45-39 against the Money Line with the average play being a +218.4 dog and making a whopping 59.3 units in profits since 1992. Play against home favorites versus the money line and is a turnover prone team yielding 2.5+ TOPG facing a mistake-free team yielding <=1.25 TOPG. Can you imagine playing Black Jack and getting paid $2.18 for every winning $1.00 hand played? Well, that is exactly what this system has done since 1992. The L-tech defense is playing very well and is vastly under rated. They held Hawaii to negative 7 yards rushing and recorded 7 sacks. Nevada has a strong running game, but based on matchups, L-tech will contain that rushing attack and force Nevada to pass more than would like to do in this game. Moreover, Nevada has had 11 fumbles and lost 10 of them already in just 4 games. L-tech has had just 4 fumbles and lost 2 of them. L-tech ranks 13th and Nevada 120th in turnover margin nationally. Take L-tech.

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on Missouri as the host Nebraska in the Big-12 opener for both teams. AiS shows an 82% probability that Missouri will lose this game by 3 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 48-9 for 84% winners since 2004 and the average play has been a +113 dog. Play against a road team versus the money line after playing a game at home and then playing on a Thursday. Here is a 2nd system that has gone 47-32 on the money line and has made 42.5 units since 1992. Play against a road team versus the money line off a home win by 17 points or more and with the game taking place on Thursday. Here is the third system that has posted a 25-14 making 37.1 units since 1992. Play against a road team versus the money line that is off a home blowout win by 28 points or more when playing on a Thursday. The average play on this system has been a dog of +206. Amazing yes. So, do yourself a favor and write these down and do a little homework to take advantage of additional winners as the season moves on. Nebraska defense is much improved, ranking first in points allowed nationally, but it is against inferior competition. Even in the game against V-tech which was another graded winner, Nebraska caught V-tech flat. Missouri is led by a strong passing attack that resembles the one from last season led by Heisman contender Daniels last year. The QB now is Gabbert and he has thrown for 1161 yards, 11 TD

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on Troy University as they host Middle Tennessee State set to start Tuesday at 8:00 EST. AiS shows a 78% probability that Troy will win this game by 5 or more points. AiS shows a 90% probability that Troy will score 28 or more points in this game. Note that when Troy scores 28 or more points in a game they are a strong 21-6 since 1992. When MTST allows 28 or more points they are a weak 19-34 ATS. Troy is 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) after a game where they committed 3 or more turnovers over the last 3 seasons. Troy defeated Arkansas State as a 3 point dog in their last game, but did have 3 turnovers. In their second game of the year Troy had 3 turnovers in a loss at Florida. In the next game they defeated a pretty darn good UAB team 27-14 and covered the 6.5 point number. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 27-10 on the money line for 73% winners since 2003. Play against a road team versus the money line with an opportunistic defense forcing 2.75 or more turnovers/game and after a game where they committed no turnovers. MTST had no turnovers in their win over North Texas last game while forcing 5 turnovers. In the previous game to that one, MTST forced 4 turnovers and had 3 of their own in a heroic last second FG win over Maryland. Troy will be able to run the ball well and this will set-up easy play action pass plays. The strong running game will keep turnovers to a bare minimum and I would not be surprised to see Troy play turnover free. Take the Trojans.

Tigers are also just 0-9 ATS (-9.9 Units) after 3 or more consecutive straight up wins over the last 3 seasons; 1-8 ATS (-7.8 Units) after a game where they forced 3 or more turnovers over the last 3 seasons.

Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 30-6 on the MONEY LINE making 35.4 units since 2003. Play on a road team versus the money line that is gaining >=6.2 YPP and now facing a team with a poor defense allowing 5.6 to 6.2 YPP and after gaining 6.25 or more yards/play in their previous game.

Taking a portion of the system above we see that Tech is just 9-22 ATS (-15.2 Units) after gaining 6.75 or more yards/play in their previous game since 1992. L-tech is also coming off a BYE week, which has not served them well noting they are just 5-15 ATS (-11.5 Units) after a bye week since 1992.

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Penn State as they host Iowa set to start at 8:00 EST and can be seen on ABC. AiS shows an 83% probability that PSU will win this game by 10 or more points. Revenge is talked about in this game, but will have just a minimal impact on this game. PSU is even more dominant, especially in the skill positions, matching up against Iowa this turn around. This dominance starts on the LOS and there is NO doubt that Iowa will have a very tough time running the ball. Note that Iowa is just 4-14 ATS (-11.4 Units) versus excellent rushing defenses allowing <=2.75 rushing yards/carry since 1992. Granted, the caliber of play, the Lions have faced has been weak, but the athletes they have will play even better against the best competition. Paterno is a solid 27-16 ATS (+9.4 Units) after 2 or more consecutive losses against the spread. Iowa may have taken any opening drive opportunities to throw the ball in this game when last week against Arizona they threw on 5 of the first 6 plays. Again, even with the injuries to LB starters and the fact that at least 1 of them will not play tonight, the 2nd string is very good in their own right. However, it would mark the first time that standout OLB Navorro Bowman and Sean Lee would start and finish a game together. This simply underscores the strength of the AiS grading and the projection that Iowa will not be consistently effective on offense. PSU did not get the nickname Linebacker U because of a great OL. Iowa has a very good freshman RB in Adam Robinson, who at 5

Ai Simulator 15* graded play on Illinois as they face Ohio State set to start at 3:30 EST. AiS shows an 86% probability that Illinois will lose this game by 13 or fewer points. Illinois offense has returned 8 starters including their QB and they will be equal to Ohio States' offensive unit. Ohio State will want to run the ball and will have more than twice as many running plays as passing. OSU will want to run the ball as well in order to keep turnovers to a minimum and to control the Top and tempo of the game. This actually can play into Illinois' strengths as they have several WR that match-up very well against the Ohio State secondary. This also reinforces the AiS grading for the UNDER play as well. Take Illinois. Ai Simulator 5* graded play UNDER Illinois/Ohio State. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 44-17 UNDER since 1992. Play under with any team against the total after allowing 125 or less rushing yards in 2 straight games facing an opponent after gaining 350 or more rushing yards last game. Ohio State is a solid 11-1 UNDER (+9.9 Units) after leading in their previous game by 24 or more points at the half since 1992. Take the UNDER.

Ai Simulator 7* graded play on Nevada as they host Missouri set to start Thursday night at 9:00 EST. AiS shows a 78% probability that Nevada will lose this game by 6 or fewer points. Missouri is off a big win against a weak opponent in Furman last week and this places them in a very poor role for this game. Missouri is just 5-17 ATS (-13.7 Units) after a win by 28 or more points since 1992. The tempo of this game based on the current total line fits Nevada's style of play quite well. Note that they are 10-2 ATS (+7.8 Units) in a home game where the total is between 56.5 and 63 since 1992. Missouri HC Pinkel is just 1-8 ATS (-7.8 Units) after scoring 50 points or more last game as the coach of the Tigers. The biggest factor in this game is that Missouri's pass defense is not playing well at all and this against weak opponents. They have allowed 726 total passing yards against Illinois, Bowling Green, and Furman combined. Now, they face Nevada, who has played far tougher competition and runs a balanced offensive attack. Play action pass will work wonders for Nevada this week as Missouri must respect the run first. Another important factor is that Missouri returns just 5 starters on offense and only 4 on defense. Nevada returns 7 starters including the QB on offense and 7 more starters on defense. Playing on National TV and at home will make Nevada play above their potential and this may well be a significant upset. Take Nevada.

AiS shows an 85% probability that Nebraska will lose this game by 4 or fewer points and has a 65% probability of winning the game. Nebraska will be very successful on offense and there is a 92% probability that they will score 28 or more points. Note that Nebraska is a solid 87-39 ATS (+44.1 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992. Granted, the Nebraska defense has yet to truly tested, but so far they have played fantastic TEAM defense in their first two games. They matchup extremely well against V-tech as well. Keep in mind that V-tech offense executed quite poorly against Alabama and I actually could make a case that this Nebraska defense is even better. Take the Cornhuskers.

Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 28-4 ATS for 88% winners since 1999. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in the first month of the season and after closing out last season with 2 or more straight losses and had a winning record last season. Boise is off to a 2-0 SU and ATS start winning in 2 home games against Oregon 19-8 and Miami(Ohio) 48-0. Fresno blew out Cal Davis 51-0 in a game that was not lined and lost a tough one at Wisconsin 34-31, but covered as 7.5 dog. Fresno State defense is a bit banged up, but they are extremely strong against the run. Boise running game has not been solid and consistent and there is no doubt in my mind that Fresno will control the LOS in this game. Fresno has some great athletes on this team that are vastly under rated. Keep an eye on WR Seyi Ajirotutu. He will be matched up against one of the best corners in the country in Kyle Wilson. Seyi Ajirotutu has a very significant advantage in size and strength and quickness to the ball. I fully expect Seyi Ajirotutu to have a huge night as Fresno will continue to use various formations to get him in man coverage. Take Fresno. Ai Simulator 5* graded play UNDER FSU/BSU.

Ai Simulator 5* graded play on Troy as they face Florida set to start at 12:20 EST. AiS shows a 78% probability that Troy will lose this game by 35 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 26-6 for 81% winners since 1992. Play against a home team with a great scoring defense last season that allowed 14 or less points/game and with an experienced QB returning as starter, in the first two weeks of the season. HC Blakeney is a solid 9-2 ATS (+6.8 Units) in road games after allowing 75 or less rushing yards last game as the coach of Troy. Ai Simulator 7* graded play on San Jose State facing Utah set to start at 10:30 EST. AiS shows a 75% probability that SJST will lose this game by 13 or fewer points. This is yet another dog that I feel can win the game based on the AiS summary projections and supporting probabilities. They return 8 starters including the QB and 7 on defense as well. Utah is certainly in a rebuilding year returning just 5 starters on offense and are integrating a new QB into the offensive schemes. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 26-6 ATS for 81% winners since 1992. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points after being outgained by 225 or more total yards in their previous game, with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. SJST is a perfect 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) in home games after scoring 9 points or less last game since 1992. Take San Jose State for a 7* play.

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Southern California as they face Ohio State set to start at 8:00. AiS shows an 86% probability that Southern Cal will win this game by 7 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 26-6 mark for 81% winners since 1992. Play against a home team with a great scoring defense last season that allowed 14 or less points/game and with an experienced QB returning as starter, in the first two weeks of the season. 55% of these plays covered the spread by 7 or more points supporting the case for the potential blowout. There is only ONE fundamental item I don

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Houston as they face Oklahoma State set to start at 3:30 EST. AiS shows an 85% probability that Houston will lose this game by 15 or fewer points. Houston biggest advantage is that they have 8 returning starters including the QB on offense. That unit will be going against OSU unit that returns just 6 starters on defense. AiS also confirms this matchup advantage projecting a 92% probability that Houston will gain 6.5 yards or more per play in this game. Note that OSU is just 9-31 ATS (-25.1 Units) when they allow 6.5 or more total yards per play since 1992. Check out this money line system play that has gone 37-24 making 34 units in profits since 2003. Play against a home team versus the money line after being beaten by the spread by more than 21 points in their previous game, in the first half of the season. This is not a reason to expect a big upset. The AiS, does however, nail some incredible upsets. One was last year when 10* Mississippi upset Florida in the swamp 31-30 as a 24.5 point under dog. Although, these upsets occur, the risk/reward profile does not validate an extra wager. Stick with the 10* and the points. Houston QB Case Keenum has thrown for 300 or more yards in 14 of the past 15 games. His veteran leadership will be one of the dominant reasons Houston will stay in this game and make it far closer than OSU would like. Take Houston.

Ai Simulator 10* graded play on Clemson as they face Georgia Tech Thursday night set to start at 8:00 EST. AiS shows an 83% probability that Clemson will lose this game by 5 or fewer points and a 53% probability that they will win the game. AiS shows a 92% probability that GT will gain 5 to 5.5 net passing yards. Note that they are just 3-8 against the money line (-9.8 Units) in home games when they gain 5 to 5.5 net passing yards/attempt since 1992; GT is also a weak 3-6 against the money line (-13.0 Units) after allowing 100 or less rushing yards last game over the last 3 seasons. I also like a 3* graded play UNDER in the first half line based on the AiS sumamry projections. Supporting this play is a solid winning system that has gone 38-13 UNDER since 1992. Play under any team versus the the 1rst half total after gaining 7.25 or more yards/play in their previous game and with an experienced QB versus opponent with inexperienced QB, in the first month of the season. GT runs a unorthodox triple option and Clemson has the speed and most importantly the discipline to shut this offense down
