I'm trying to make my thursday night bets before they get too high where I don't want them anymore.......Here's 3 of them I'm thinking I need 2 of them to take straight up, let me know what your thoughts are.....South Carolina -6 against Miss. St?.....NW-3 against Miami, Oh? Also Ball st.-4 against E. Michigan...........Let me know what you guys think, I'm asking this board because I figured you guys would know a lot more then me about the mac games and try not to go with the whole mac theme give me your honest opinion.

South Carolina, Northwestern, and Ball State. All 3 win and all 3 cover the spread.

I have to agree with BGSUFootballFan.
I would stay away from the Miami - Northwestern game, tho. Too much uncertainty.
It used to be so much easier. Each MAC team was a double-digit underdog and all you had to do was pick the good MAC teams and they covered every time. Vegas and the betting population has gotten wiser.

SC and BSU. I wouldn't touch the Randy Walker game with a ten-foot pole.

The others are wrong - USC, Miami (OH), and Ball State.
TAKE IT TO THE BANK!

Miami historically owns NW, and the game's in Oxford.

From my experience, Oxford doesn't appear to be much of a home field advantage

The USC game is on Saturday and I might like that game as well but however I'm just trying to put a lil down on these Thursday night games that way I have a lil bit of uncle mo on my side for the weekend bets. So nobody else but me thinks NW will play out of its ase for Walker and sutton who was stud last year will have a good game, I mean it is only 3 pts.

O agree the Redhawks win this one, NW is not so hot this year and while it will not be some kind of lay down or blowout by any means Miami wins this one.

Transfer - I am with you on this one and I have my tickets for the game. While NW will try to win for Walker, Walker means more to Miami.
It will be an emotional night as Miami honors Walker with the first plaque to be placed in The Cradle of Coaches Plaza. Dick Crum is returning for the ceremony. I bet that Bo will also be in the house. Walker IS Miami. He rescued the program when he returned and rekindled the Cradle.
There is a lot of young and untested players on the Miami side of the ball this year, but this night is going to mean alot to Miami.
