haha...i love this thread.

How bad is that we're sitting here 35 minutes from gametime eagerly anticipating watching and rooting for UL- Lafayette??

Lol.....someone put a bullet in me.

 

well at least you can flip to the cardinals-mets game in about 45 minutes too. put a unit on the cards -114 with carpenter on the hill.

But yeah...i threw some nice jack on UL to cover...and the 1st half spread.

 

GOOOOOO Ul-Lafayette....umm....whatever your names are!!!!

 

The man held solely responsible for my degeneratism was a former business partner. Sometimes we would hit the bars after work late night and he'd crash on my couch. I remember waking on Saturday mornings to the sound of....GO GO GO GO.....then roll back over and try to fall asleep. I would be re-awakened not much longer when my little brother and his best friend would walk into my room and just start rollin, still trying to sleep, I would see what the fuss was about. They thought it was the funniest thing of all time that my business partner was up at 9:00 betting McNeese State and Akron to go over when we had just got home a few hours prior......gotta love it!

 

I'm in at -9. Dammit! Hoping they cruise so I could take advantage of hedging later on.

 

Hey Yer Mom: You must have moved the action on the Hawaii total because it's currently at 73.5!!! Still worth taking (if I buy it down to 73)?

 

I'd still take it at 75 to be honest, which is where I think the line will get. They cant post this total high enough. Only if Fat Tony is involved in the game should it go under. The average TD scoring drive should resemble:

 

7 Plays 72 yards 2:31

 

We'll see though....

 

Good Luck!!

Awww crap. Im going to have to use my stupid question of the day on this post.....crap.

 

 

Whats putting money on the cards -115 mean?

[JT 137]

Just wanted to mention that the Pitt loss to Mich St is still respectable, since the Spartans were playing at a high level, and were blowing out Notre Dame before collapsing. They have quit on the season and suffered many injuries to their skill people since. But prior to the Notre Dame game, Mich St was a very good team.

 

The Rutgers win last week over Navy was a fraud with a capital FRAUD. Deceiving final score. The Navy QB dislocated him knee in the first quarter, and Navy picked up something like 4 first downs the rest of the game. Hampton is that important to the Navy offense. And Rutgers still had trouble pulling away until special teams and turnovers started to help them out.

 

Also, statistically, Rutgers was outplayed by South Florida, but, once again, turnovers were the key to that win. And Rutgers has trouble with horrible North Carolina was back in week one, also on the road. That same North Carolina team that South Florida just tuned up last week.

 

I haven't made up my mind on this game, but Rutgers is a team that I will be looking to fade down the stretch, picking choosing my spots, because they are getting too much respect based on the lines of games. Don't get me wrong, they are still a decent team, and will go bowling. But they are nowhere near as good as pollsters seem to think.

 

Just my $.02

 

I understand what you're saying about the Navy QB, but I don't know that I'd go so far as to call the win a fraud. Navy loaded up to stop the run and Rutgers executed in the passing game, it's offensive weakness. I think the Knights young QB/WR corp are gaining confidence, though still a bit shaky. I've seen much more of the Knights than I have Pitt. What are the Panthers defensive strengths?

 

To me, the fact that RU is getting 6.5/7 here shows that the oddsmakers agree more with your way of thinking, as opposed to giving them too much respect. Ah, trying to decipher the mindset of the mysterious and all powerful Maker of Odds. That's the beauty of this whole thing, isn't it?

Homer: I'm sick of these constant bear attacks. It's like a frickin' country bear jambaroo around here!

 

Homer: Let the bears pay the bear tax. I pay the Homer tax.

Lisa: That's home-_owner_ tax.

Went for it on 4th down in their own territory, but punted it away when they were in FlaAtl territory?

[cyclone24 1,913]

INTERCEPTION (sort of)

 

 

Now THAT is the Ul-Lafayette team i know brother!!!

Unfortunately, i need a score too heheh since im the only one who took them 1H .....lets see some scoring!

[cyclone24 1,913]

What a dipsh!t call on 3rd down.

 

All those guys are stacking the line and you run a draw when you have a good qb??

 

nice.

[American Chewy 98]

lol huge review here.....hope it gets reversed for the TD!

 

darn...woulda been sweet

 

 

why aren't they running more option??

[needmoremoney 0]

lol huge review here.....hope it gets reversed for the TD!

 

darn

 

No idea what you are referring to since i am still at work..but golly gee.. i hope ULLaf is the one with the TD... and i hope the call goes their way!

[cyclone24 1,913]

Fvcking christ.

 

They can stop slobbering over this Ul Qb.....jake delhomme this, jake delhomme that.

 

He fvckin sucks....

 

Hes scored 3 points on sad azz Florida atlantic.

[phillybear 366]

Looks like this game was a set up for Flor Atl 1st H and Under for the game. Smells fishy. I've seen this kind of crap before on these low profile games. 4 trips into Flor Atl territory. One FG and 3 punts. Ugh.

 

They usually let the game play out normalling in the second half, so hopefully UL Lafayette gets their heads out of their asses.

[American Chewy 98]

yeah sorry i'm going for ULL...a ULL player was thrown down and kinda flipped over but his knee never hit and he got up and ran for the score. but i guess the whistle blew so it was ruled non-reviewable.

 

looks like its gonna be 3-0 ULL at the half.

How would anyone in their right mind want to take North Carolina tomorrow night? I bleed Carolina blue, but this team just sucks. Last time I saw the line Virginia was only favored by 6 at home. Carolina needed overtime for their only win against Furman. Their offense isn't nearly as high powered as what many thought and their QB situation is a mess. Add to that the fact that Bunting is probably dead man walking and I don't see how the Heels cover. Now, if this were against NC STate, then I'd be more inclined to take the points.

 

I'm sure my lack of objectivity is coming into play, but I try to be as impartial and realistic and I can and I don't see any way Carolina stays within 6.

[phillybear 366]

Ah, screw this boring game. Almost time for Lost.

[needmoremoney 0]

I hope ULL makes up for the 1H ....2 units on 2H....

[Yer mom 2]

Did some in game betting...need the game to stay under 24.5 points. ULL 17 FLa Atl 7 would be sweet....

[Hurricane Ditka 0]

[American Chewy 98]

well hopefully 2 trips inside the 20 with no points kills any life for FAU. this game suddenly got somewhat entertaining.

[GiantsRule 0]

Other than the waning seconds of the 1st half, has ULL even attempted a pass?!?

 

I'd buy it back at UFLA +7.5, but at ULL -9 for the game, I can't risk the "wrong middle" of a ULL 8-point win.

[R8dr Fan 87 0]

This is some of the worst football I have ever seen in my life. I have money on the game and I still can't watch it. How espn 2 is showing a game like this is beyond me. Anywayz im done wit my lil rant go ULL or whatever they call themselves

[GiantsRule 0]

We need a pick 6 or a "pick up" 6 to have a shot here. ULL has been in "run out the clock" mode since the 2nd quarter.

[cyclone24 1,913]

Im not sure these guys could play in my YMCA Flag football league.......just terrible.

 

 

BUT....we just need a field goal from the geeky white cajun.....and we cover.

Um, you guys do. I don't because I got in at a sh!tty -9 line. We gamble as a team here. Has to be a TD.

 

So of course I get c0ckteased with yet another TD only for a f'n stupid block in the back!!!
