i started with sc then switched over to houston, the way that game was going i reallyi thought they were gonna win it, couldn't really get sc back at a good level, so i kinda got fucked, oh well

i say bc - the points over navy, i'm not sure about iowa though, i'm thinking tex will beat them by some number between 4 and 11, but what do you guys think?


NCSUMEB give me your analysis on iowa, and what did you think about spurrier going for 2 4th and 1s on his own 30? I think you have to punt the 2nd time, but it's real fucking gutsy.

I took Texas -9 and Skins +3

12/29/2006 10:32:05 PM

yea i want to do something on the giants skins, but the giants are just so unpredictable

12/29/2006 11:36:48 PM

I like Texas to roll over Iowa, A&M shattered Texas's Big XII/BCS chances, they should come out more focused than any game this season as losing to a rival gets your attention, especially against a weaker team in Iowa, I think Iowa could even score a touchdwon first and still wouldn't be worried, as the game is 60 minutes. Turnovers and missed chippies are the only way Texas doesn't cover (see Clemson) in my opinion. I also heard iowa suffered an injury to a key player today, and the line for some reason has come down from -10 to -9 for texas.

Ed--WOW, TT came back to win

Its also becoming obvious that betting on the underdog moneyline or favorite and the spread is panning out this bowl season, the only two exceptions are oregon st., miracle, and TT, major miracle

12/29/2006 11:57:31 PM

well if you think clemson only didn't cover bc of shitty kicking and turnovers i might go with iowa, bc kentucky was the flat out better team in that one, they played better all season against decent teams (ranked) than clemson and flat out beat them head to head.

12/30/2006 12:11:39 AM

I said chippies, not kicking, those (7 points total) would have completely changed the complexion of the game at the time they occurred (fake punt in your own territory with 6+ yards to go on a pass from the punter, that's urbanesque), as in Clemson would not have had to throw the ball with that waterboy they call a QB because they wouldn't be trailing, once Proctor was forced to throw 2:1, the game was over, but I took the under and made out, but kicked myself as I nearly picked the moneyline and UK.

This Georgia Vs. Viginia Tech game has me baffled. Think tech will cover?

[Edited on December 30, 2006 at 12:26 AM. Reason : .]

12/30/2006 12:26:38 AM

^ absolutely, Tech crushed wake at wake, and didn't allow a point to UVA, both late in their season. The only reason the aren't in the BCS was the meltdown in the first half to g tech. Has georgia played well in any big games his season? I think the real mystery is navy/BC, could literlaly go either way, I'm staying away from that one

VT is the LOCK OF THE YEAR, other than San Jose beatin New Mexico last week and WV beatin GT.

[Edited on December 30, 2006 at 3:23 AM. Reason : 1]

12/30/2006 3:23:03 AM

I'd love to go on the BC/Navy game but it's too unpredictable considering the coaching changes and all.


I did like the VT/UGA game though, with VT covering.

12/30/2006 9:21:32 AM

i think bc/navy under 47 looks good

12/30/2006 10:47:55 AM

yea, i was thinking about taking the under, i'm thinking about making a spread play on bc, meaning think they'll win, but by less than the 7.5 or whatever they are laying


and for the record, the lock of the year was rutgers - 8.5



changed my mind, i think bc will cover, new coach is going to be mad motivated for this game, and navy didn't play any competition in their last 4 games

I'm using sports.com to do my sports betting, but they are my return is only about 91% if I win. Is there a site that has a better return for winning bets? At this rate I have to win 59% of the time just to break even. What sites do you guys use?

12/30/2006 12:31:09 PM

everytime you bet that's your return, no matter what? yea fuck that site dude

12/30/2006 12:32:47 PM

yes every bet is 91% I need to find a better site.

12/30/2006 12:36:45 PM

i mean seroiusly, get off of that site now, don't make another bet on it, get neteller and use tradesports, i can even give you a referral if you want, if you just want to do a more traditional sportsbook then go with vipsports or bodog, i'm sure someone else can recommend one of the other several sites available.

it really makes no sense to pay that kind of fee for an online book, or even an in person book really

12/30/2006 1:45:33 PM

awesome, i lost the over/under by that last second field goal.

texas and VT

12/30/2006 4:24:47 PM

same here jmpack, I had a buddy text me the score, he texts me 24-22, I'm thinking what a great cover for the under, then I get another text 5 minutes later....I also have texas and va tech covering. I am a little nervous now about va tech, it seems to good to be true, everyone is taking them, and the line hasn't moved at all

12/30/2006 4:27:58 PM

Im going to wait to go on the VT game until I see how the Texas goes plays out. If it looks like a blowout or at least a good cover then I'll take VT -3, also have Skins +3 tonite.


FUUUUUUUUUCK Iowa is about to score...

12/30/2006 4:41:45 PM

Pinnacle has good prices, but most books have better prices than what you are getting. I have to say Pinnacle is the best but also check out 5dimes and bodog

Just a heads up on WVU -10.5. Yeah, Ball is out and their best cover corner is out too but keep in mind that Steve Slaton will either NOT play or be very limited. I saw yesterday he has a thigh tweak.

With Slaton I'd jump all over it but w/o I wouldn't even take them straight up..

1/1/2007 10:39:57 AM

haha ball is out because of academics. thats what u get for going to a tough school and being dumb. i wish i had woken up earlier so i coulda bet on tennessee and on auburn. oh well. i teased tech to 16 so i wouldnt worry too much when they get beaten badly.

picks for the rose bowl?

1/1/2007 1:47:39 PM

tough pick... i think i might go with michigan and the over

1/1/2007 2:12:16 PM

a lot of people are taking michigan. when I put in my bet michigane was -1. it is -2.5 now. in one day.

1/1/2007 5:32:03 PM

I was pretty pissed this afternoon because my internet was down and I wanted to put a c-note on UM.


Whew, that was a blessing in disguise.

1/1/2007 7:23:32 PM

might still make my over.. 1 more touchdown by either team

1/1/2007 8:09:11 PM

for the record i have a very large position on boise winning, that's right, not beating the line, winning outright, you've heard it here first folks. haha, i hope they aren't all star struck by the publicity and shit.

1/1/2007 8:27:20 PM

michigan sucked it up, at least USC put enough points on the board for me to win the over

1/1/2007 8:29:48 PM

^^ I took them with the pts just because I was pissed about not getting to bet on any of the earlier games today

1/1/2007 8:48:21 PM

so far i'm showing +10 1/2 spread for Wake in the Orange Bowl.... let me hear your picks

1/2/2007 11:29:24 AM

louisville -10

1/2/2007 11:44:35 AM

I'm not saying Louisville is definitely going to cover, BUT putting money at Wake +10-10.5 is NOT a good pick.

1/2/2007 11:55:09 AM

i might take wake forest to win ml but a tiny ass bet on it and then bet big on louisville

1/2/2007 11:56:24 AM

wow, no credit at all for calling boise to win huh? oh well *sighs, i'm on louisville to win by more than 3.5 tonight, if they get a quick 7 or 10 points i might turn it into a spread if the price is right

1/2/2007 5:21:03 PM

Fuck it... I gotta make up some $$ from this weekend. Im going hard on Louisville -10. There's no way I can put money on Wake winning or covering the spread.

1/2/2007 7:48:26 PM

UNC -21 vs PENN

LSU -8 1/2

What do ya'll think about LSU/ND tonight

I'm in the hole and either need to go ahead and pay up or win it back...

[Edited on January 3, 2007 at 6:33 PM. Reason : 12]

1/3/2007 6:32:07 PM

lol. i took lsu -8 and i took unc as well.. also took a few other college games but dont remember which haha

1/3/2007 7:05:36 PM

1/3/2007 7:31:32 PM

lsu -8

1/3/2007 7:39:16 PM

I put a shit load on LSU tonight
