Anyone know anything about this website? Not to follow it blindly but it could be a good reference.



Any computer rankings or predictions using computer formuals at this point of the system are meaningless due to the extremely small sample size.

Computer rankings for NCAA Football won't be useful until about mid-October. Hence why the BCS isn't released until then.

Until that time, computer rankings will either have human input bias, or no bias at all but extremely fluid due to the small sample size.

Here is an example of a site with detailed advanced computer rankings that have no human input bias at this time: LINK

However, due to the small sample size, they are not useful yet. Georgia #62? Boise State #78? Arizona State #72? Central Florida #5? Minnesota #11? The webmaster even says don't take my computer stats seriously until about Week 7.

Yeah, I've had that site bookmarked for years. But in all honesty, its no better than you coming up with your own projections for each game. I've found no value in even using it a reference, to be honest.

Hard not to like Clemson tonight. I just dont see how NC State expects to score enough to keep this one close. Their backup QB hasnt thrown a TD yet in 2 games (against La Tech & Richmond). Clemson should have no issues putting up 40+. Can NC State get to at least 26?

With both teams tonight in clemson/ncst coming off a buy week, could the defenses be more prepared making the Under a solid play????????

With both teams having the past week off, no important game to look forward to in the near future, and the Clemson offense, I think they roll and cover -13.5 tonight.

Final Card - Diggin the favorites this week - I've added a mini analysis for shits n giggles

Colorado State +40 vs. Bama *4 units - Saban doesn't want to blow out his old buddy McElwain and probably wants to use this game as team motivation for the upcoming schedule
Hawaii +10 at Nevada *1 unit - Nevada has serious QB issues and lost by 50+ to FSU last week
Baylor -28 vs. ULM *1 unit (-120) - Baylor should score 70 plus, they are Oregon esque
UCLA -41 vs. NMSU *1 unit (-120) - NMSU lost to Texas by 48 points, NMSU may be the worst team in FBS
Louisville -43 vs FIU *1 unit - FIU is FCS-caliber and Louisville needs a "style points" win after last week's game
Wyoming -4 at Air Force 1* unit- Wyoming is clearly the better team and has stepped into much tougher stadiums. Colorado Springs is a short trip from Laramie.
Wisconsin -24 vs. Purdue *1 unit - Wisco is pissed about the Debacle in the Desert and Purdue got boatraced by mediocre Cinci on the road
LSU -17 vs. Auburn *1 unit - Auburn's first road game couldn't have been at a tougher place to play, especially in potentially wet conditions

Other likes:

Boise St, Kansas St, Duke

GL everyone

Looks as the rain should be over around 2 for LSU so thats a plus for the crowd intensity. Field will be wet but beats raining during the game

I mean, really..

NC State beat a very shitty Louisiana Tech team at home in week 1 and needed to score the final 13 points to beat freaking Richmond in week 2 23-21.

Clemson will butt-frick NC State tonight and make them like it.
