NCAAF Betting: Friday Night Lights

With fans like these how can the Golden Eagles not soar tonight?

Big game tonight with all kinds of BCS implications (ha!) as the Jayhawks travel to Southern Miss for another edition of Friday Night Lights. This time we have Southern Miss set as 5.5-point chalk with the total hovering around 52-53 pts depending upon where you shop. Kansas is 5-1 ATS in the L3Y in games played in September. However, the Jayhawks are coming off a huge upset win at home against the Yellow-jackets. A game in which Kansas was set as almost a two TD home-dog.

Meanwhile, handing us the fist loss of the season were the Golden Eagles who dropped a 13-41 contest at South Carolina. Southern Miss then beat Prairie View. However, the home team is a 5.5 point favorite. Handicapping this FNL event I had Kansas as a pick ’em, or even SM as a -1 pt favorite so the 5.5 points makes absolutely no sense. Other than that this is the only college action on the WWL and it is a square night so jack up the points as high as the market will bear, right. Even though, I am not biting and going to the dogs.

Two Red Lights:

1) Kansas lost N. Dakota state 3-6???????, but plays well against the Yellow-Jackets. And, how will Kansas play on the road? Both win and loss came at home and so it will be interesting how they fare against an SM team that is 1-0 ATS in the last three seasons against Kansas.

2) Revenge. Last year Kansas won but did not cover the 11.5 points at home, 35-28.

Pick! Southern Miss -5. I am paying twenty cents to buy down the hook.
