I took AUB -1.5 for X$ and UNDER 72.5 for 2X$. Looking good so far… ---

> [@Jackknifed\_Juggernaut](#): > > That field is not right. Too soft. The offensive players can’t pick up enough speed or make cuts! I call “fix” on the under. :dubious: They re-sodded the field last week. Terrible idea. A player is slipping on nearly every play. very disappointing to watch the sloppy play. War Eagle. The Under looks very safe! a minute or so into the 4th qtr. ---

Argh, so much for the spread. ---

I predicted Oregon would only score 24. Auburn’s defense was better than even I expected. Oregon just could not run the ball at all, which makes the 4 straight running plays from 1st and goal (when they ended up turning it over on downs) highly suspect play calling… ---

Egad, I got half pointed by my own ‘spread’ adjustment. Auburn didn’t cover the 3.5 spread as set out in the OP, and the Over never had a chance. ---

It’s unbelievable that the FBS could allow _that_ game to be played a field like _that_! They succeeded in completely handicapping 2 teams that rely on speed and athleticism for success. Many people should be fired! Now we don’t have a clue who the real best team in college football is. All we know is that Nick Fairley is a beast! ---
