NCAA Week 1...Continued

Adding...

Northwestern (-11 1/2) Syracuse
- Syracuse was a pretty good football team until Greg Robinson showed up. And anybody that has ever rooted for the Kansas City Chiefs or Texas Longhorns probably could have told you that was coming. The Orange are 7-28 since his arrival and open on the road against a Northwestern Wildcat squad that returns 19 starters. On offense, Northwestern will spread the field and generally do things that Robinson can't figure out. On defense, they return their front 4 to battle an offensive line that gave up 54 sacks last year, which was next to last ahead of only Notre Dame (speaking of coaches that kill programs). Northwestern will score points in this game, and Syracuse is unlikely to keep pace with an offense that scored over 20 points only twice all of last season.

Leans...

Kentucky +3 1/2
California -5
Bowling Green +13 1/2
