16:30 —Week 2 games

16:50 — Nebraska-UCLA

  • Burke: “They both had no trouble whatsoever with their Conference USA opponents.”
  • Lindeman: “I’d say the line movement is justified.”
  • Lindeman: ”Nebraska went 12-of-15 on third down, UCLA just 2 of 11.”
  • Burke: “I can make a stronger case for Nebraska than UCLA.”

21:25 — Oklahoma State-Arizona

  • Lindeman: “Arizona has the players offensively … they can stay within the number.”

25:47 — Georgia-Missouri

  • Lindeman: “I think you can make arguments for both sides. I’m going to have to side with Missouri here.”

29:30 Underdogs under 3 points: “Bet moneyline or take the points?”

  • Lindeman: “I’ll take a point if I can get it. Anything that can help.”
  • Burke: “I think this is a game that either Missouri wins it or loses by two scores.”

33:20 — Pittsburgh-Cincinnati

  • Lindeman: “I’m actually looking to back the Panthers here.”
  • Burke: “I’m definitely looking to play the under in this game more than a side.”

38:30 — Duke-Stanford

  • Lindeman: “I expect Stanford to bounce back here. I’d feel more comfortable laying the 15 than taking the 15.”
