Lets take a nice plus price on this high total with first-year Cal Baptist head coach Kyle Getter, who will employ the pack-line defense he learned while coaching as an assistant at Virginia under Tony Bennett. Slower pace, defense focus, ball movement and quality shots on offense, which got Virginia a national title in 2019. North Florida usually pushes the pace. But Cal-Baptist has some size, should rebound well against that weakness of NF and try to control tempo.

Stetson at South Carolina - Extra games board and Stetson played last night and lost to Clemson by 13 while shooting very well inside the arc (2-pointers). The Hatters should get more good looks as South Carolina does not possess great size as a power conference program, and Gamecocks have usually played at a slower paces as well under bumbling coach Lamont Paris, who has a losing record overall in 4 season at SC including just 27-51 vs. SEC teams. Big 'Dog points.

The Seahawks rank No. 2 in defensive EPA per play and No. 1 in opponent yards per play, they allow fewer explosive passes than anyone, and last Sunday night they held Patrick Mahomes to a season-low 165 yards, 3 points, and not one single trip to the red zone. Chicago's run defense is a concern allowing 4.4 yards per rush and 26th in run-defence DVOA, but they just bolstered their interior in a trade for top DT Jeffrey Simmons. The Seahawks just traded for All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson this week, and RB Zach Charbonnet is expected to return for this game. Oh, and Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba has six 100 yard games in seven including 150 last Monday night vs. the Chiefs stronger defense. The Bears have extra rest on their side and QB Caleb Williams has passed for b3b 300 yards games in his return with the Bears explosive offennse scoring 59 points in those contests. Still, Luman Field is so tough with a supportive strong team for the fans. Opinion on the Seahawks.
