Las Vegas - For those folks that bought a ticket on the Florida State/Boise State game, you are getting a REFUND! The game was moved around 160 miles from Jacksonville to Tallahassee and is now a HOME game for the Seminoles. The 'Noles opened -4 over the Broncos at the Jacksonville site, which is a home state advantage for FSU but NOT on campus. Florida State is back up on the board, ON campus, and the line has now moved to Seminoles -6.5.

Las Vegas - Was thinking about leaving the college football handicapping world with a 100% success rate after last Saturday's W with Miami-Florida, but nah, ready to roll again. And looking at another Florida school, FIU +2.5 points over Tulane. Of course, we would suggest you buy the hook and push the line to +3.

Las Vegas - Of course you're dying to know who will be the first college football coach to get the pink slip, and obviously, we have odds. Clay Helton at USC is at the top of the soon-to-be-unemployed list with odds of 5/1. Right on his heels is Chris Ash of Rutgers at 6/1. Lovie Smith ain't getting much love at Illinois with 8/1 odds to get the heave-ho. Gus Malzahn is a short walk away from the exit at Auburn with odds of 10/1.

Las Vegas - Gonna throw down early in the National League and late in the American League. Dropping some love on the Brewers with Adrian Houser over the Cardinals. Houser is not on anyone's list of the best arms, but he has been rocking the party the last three times out, allowing only 3 earned runs over 18 innings for a gorgeous 1.50 ERA.
Las Vegas - Andrew Luck retires and it creates a mini-tsunami here in Vegas. Start out with the Colts odds to win the Super Bowl, which opened at 15/1, and with NO Andrew, plummeted all the way to 50/1. On the totals board, Indy opened with an over/under of 9.5 wins, and you can shave three off the total which dropped to 6.5. And for week one, the Chargers opened at -3.5 points at home, then when Luck announced, the game was taken off the board.
