THE PLAY: North Carolina +2.5 (-109)
(317) North Carolina at (318) Syracuse
North Carolina +2.5 (-109)
I did pass the 3 Friday CFB games but this was the game I liked the most.
While the 353 yds NC had LW is not eye opening but they have improved each of last several games (217 to 270 to 287 to 353).
The Tar Heels' defense held Cal & Virginia to 294 and 259 yds while allowing the L3 foes to rush for only 76 YPG and 2.4 YPC.
Since the Angeli injury Syracuse has scored 12.5 PPG.
Conf AD of +3+ with a total under 47 are 506-371-25 (58%) ATS.

            Consultant Bio
Ralph was raised in the home of handicappers in Cleveland, Ohio. Starting in the industry as a key member of Phil Steele's early team, which expanded Northcoast Sports during the mid-90s. Ralph's personal following grew fast, allowing him to strike out on his own as the founder of California Sports. Over the next dozen years as General Manager of Phil Steele Publications and lead handicapper of Northcoast Sports, Ralph managed the creation of some of the most popular sports betting content ever, including Phil Steele's College Football Preview Magazine and Northcoast's Power Sweep Newsletter. Content displaying expertise so elite that Ralph was invited into college football's most exclusive club: Heisman Trophy Voter
Ralph Michaels has a math mind, steadily searching for a value in the numbers in addition to matchup edges, situational advantages, and hidden gems of information. Ralph finds more big bets in the college versions of football and basketball, but his handicapping approach also uncovers selective winners in the professional leagues like MLB. Small conferences are particularly profitable due to mispriced injuries and his profiling of exploitable coaching tendencies.
