Abby accepted one too many dog treats and pats on the head after her two-week domination v. Vegas.   A quick trip to the vet late Saturday evening seems to have her focused again for her fourth week.  It’s college football’s week nine, and it’s getting interesting.

After a 4 bone win with 11 bones wagered and a 3-3  win/loss week, Abby Roux stands on all four paws at 21 bones buried with 36 wagered and 9 wins v. 7 losses season to date.  Vegas got a bit back but Abby still has plenty gnaw on.  Her hunch bet (Miss.) lost, but her prediction of a very high( she said 51-37 Miss. over Ark.) scoring affair prevailed. The over covered.   Regardless her hunches are now 2-1.

Week Eight has some doggone good match ups that make for fun viewing.  Let’s roll some bones.

Auburn -3 at Ole Miss -Abby nearly covered(minus 7 won by only 4) on Miss. last week on a hunch.  Everyone wants to know what is wrong with Auburn after a loss to a Tennessee team that hadn’t won a conference game in over a year.   Ole Miss is about to find out.  The answer Saturday is…… nothing is wrong.  Four bones.

Stanford -2.5 at Arizona St. -This isn’t Stanford’s best team.  This isn’t Arizona State’s best team either.  This isn’t the PAC 10’s best year.

If this game was at the tree huggers we would five bone it.  It isn’t.  Two bones.

North Carolina St. +17.5 at Clemson – NC St. is undefeated.  I guess Vegas doesn’t think much of their competition thus far.  Or, maybe they think Clemson will roll at home.  This line almost is out of line and makes Abby want to paw the pay dirt with Clemson.  But, she’ll take the heavy points in a light way.  One bone.

Miss St. +7 at LSU -It’s Homecoming in BR.  It’s also “we beat Georgia hangover” in BR.  The Bulldogs feature a stout D line and a solid running game.  Both are important to play LSU tight.    Moo St. was off last week.  We mentioned the LSU win last week v GA.  Next week LSU is off.  The week after they play Alabama.  This is a classic trap game.  Three bones.

Purdue +14 v. THE Ohio St U -Purdue has played pretty well against pretty good competition thus far.  THE has played down to the level of some of their competition.  This one is in Indiana.  It’s not much more than a hunch bet.  One bone.

On a hunch take Nebraska at home to cover 3 1/2 over the Minnesota Golden Gophers.  If Nebraska falls to 0-7 Abby recommends that they bury their head in shame in the nearest gopher hole.

There they are, four road teams and one home.  Three dogs and two chalks.  Eleven bones are there for the taking plus one Cornhusker hunch.

Woof!
