Rotation #131-132
Clemson/Georgia Tech Under 64.5 (loss)
Clemson is the most complete team in college football.  the Brett Venables defense just does not make mistakes.  Georgia Tech has true freshman QB and their top running back in Jordan Mason is still out.  Good luck putting up points.  Clemson has a dynamic team, but their offense has looked a little off at times due to the turnover on the offensive line.  This is a team that can hand the ball off to Travis Etienne and just him win this game himself.  I think Clemson will control the clock once they pull away on the scoreboard.  I don’t see the Yellow Jackets putting up enough points to make this a high scoring game.  Take the Under.

Rotation #134
Tennessee -6.5 over Kentucky (loss)
This game will display two QB’s that make you scratch your head on how they can be so good on one play and so bad on the next.  Kentucky got a great defensive win last week and this team has great athletes, but so does Tennessee.  I believe this is a game the Vols can get up on the scoreboard and once the Wildcats abandon the run the mistakes from Terry Wilson will put them in a bigger and bigger hole.   The Vols just snapped a great winning streak and in doing so proved how far they have come since their awful start last year.  This Tennessee Defense will be the difference today as they have the talent to slow down the running game.  Take Tennessee.

Rotation #151
Army -8 over UTSA (win)
Army/UTSA Over 49 (loss)
There isn’t much defense on the field today as both teams have new defensive coordinators and very few experienced defensive players on that side of the ball.  UTSA has a brand new coaches and switched to the 3-4 defense.  This team doesn’t get to see much triple option and I wish them luck stopping it today.  The roadrunners have the talent to put up points, but I just don’t see them stopping Army.  This is a UTSA team that has a lot of talent at QB, but you can only play on QB at a time.  The triple option is the hardest thing to stop and only teams that run it themselves or face it often can slow it down.  UTSA will look clueless today on defense.  Take Army and the Over.

Rotation #143
Texas A&M -5 over Mississippi State (win)
It’s amazing how Mississippi State and this new coaching staff went from the highest to highs to the  lowest of lows.  After a week 1 win at LSU everyone thought this team was legit.  It turns out LSU just can’t stop a high school offense.  KJ Costello went from setting passing records to being benched.  This looks like a new team.  Jimbo Fisher has taken care of business so far with the only loss being against Alabama.  This team has a much better defense and it’s a huge advantage having all the position coaches in their second year opposed to their first like in the case with the Bulldogs.  Kellen Mond should have a great day passing and the A&M run game behind Isaiah Spiller should pound this defense.  Take Texas A&M.
