15-5 plays or better

12/31 Vanderbilt at -9.5 or less
1/1 Northwestern as Pk or + anything
1/5 Pittsburgh at Pk or + anything
1/1 Nebraska at +7.5 or more
1/3 Kansas State at +7.5 or more
12/28 Virginia Tech only at -2.5 or less

These are not at 15-5 with the current lines, but will be if the lines move to:

12/29 Texas at +2.5 or more
12/31 Georgia Tech at +10.5 or more
Nevada at +10.5 or more (doubt it)
La-Monroe at -5.5 or less (doubt it)
Texas Tech at -10.5 or less (doubt it)


Any not listed would have to move in excess of 3 points + to get to 15-5.

Love this!

I took some notes from another site

http://www.collegefootballpoll.com/weekly_picks.html

It might be worth looking at to give 2 computer models. Maybe weed out some things?

Either way, great info, just what I needed.

I will say they have

Bowling Green
Texas
Clemson
Oklahoma
Pittsburgh

as dogs that can win SU.

Looks like you have
Texas
Pittsburgh

that match up with them as dogs.

They are also their highest rated dogs. Looks like ML play?
