The X-Factor

The line for WVU vs. UL is pick'em. Why? Brian Brohm is the X-factor. If his hand is healthy UL will throw all over the WVU secondary, if not, UL fans are in for a long night. I don't have a decent report on the hand and the bye week had to help with the healing. What this boils down to is if you have a report that says "healthy hand," then stay away because the healthy hand makes the game a toss up. If you know the hand is bad, then Brohm will play like he has in his last two games, which means WVU (2 units).

Update: ESPN Reports that Brohm says his hand feels fine but that he has some trouble gripping the ball, and that his thumb feels tight when it is cold. Current Temp: 38 F. I'm moving it down to a 1 unit game because there is always the chance that Brohm is betting on himself and he is trying to move the line.

WVU +1.5 over UL (1 unit) (Yep, that's right I got +1.5)

YTD: 13-8, +10.5
