Las Vegas - YOU SUCK! That wasn't me talking about Duke QB Riley Leonard. It was, and is, his MOTHER before every game! He even has a wristband that says YOU SUCK! Here's the backstory. Leonard felt he needed some extra motivation and also some harsh words to keep his ego in check. For those of you that don't know, my whole life I've kind of gotten a lot of praise, Leonard said. So I wanted my mom I went to my mom one day and said, Hey, someone has to bash me and tell me I suck to give me motivation. Shes like, Shoot, Ill do it." So what has that
meant so far this season? How about hitting on almost 70% of his passes, with ZERO INTs and 238 yards on the ground in the first four games. LOVE what Mike Elko is doing in Durham. Since taking over last season, the Blue Devils are 13-4 straight up, 4-0 this season, and a VERY PROFITABLE 12-3 against the spread. Sure they have beaten a few cupcakes to start the year, but they also handled a good not great Clemson team with ease (28-7). The Fighting Irish are 4-1, and those four wins were also of the CUPCAKERY variety. Navy, Tennessee State, NC State and Central Michigan AIN'T exactly Top 25 material. Last week, they had all sorts of issues in a 17-14 loss to Ohio State. Not saying that the Dookies are as talented as the Buckeyes, but they can ball. We're seeing Duke +5.5 at almost all shops, so of course, we would spend a little extra and buy the hook to +6. All BLUE today baabbbeee and RILEY WILL NOT SUCK!

For your wagering pleasure, here is your spread stat of the day. The Wyoming/New Mexico game is probably not on your radar, but there's a number you need to have as you handicap the college card. The Lobos have been lousy for quite a while which is why they have covered only four of the last 24. That's a YUGE ouch and that's a YUGE hole in the wallet.
