Go Boise! I have the 1H (my plays on page 5). I think my plays match yours more often than philly's. Tell philly that we all need to stay together and we'll have more days like today

Yeah, I'm not too crazy about philly fading many of Ditka's plays. But you gotta respect a gambler that does his own thing and thinks for himself!

Why is everyone on Navy??

Am i missing something? Thats a lot of points to cover on the road

 

I am one of the loner who's not on Navy's side. The line is moving up and up. Too much money on Navy side. Vegas ain't gonna like this. I would go opposite.

[Yer mom 2]

I'll put it this way, I just called The Greek and said "Id like to place a loser please" They said "Sure thing sir, which game would you prefer to lose on this evening" I said "Feel free to pick one" They said "How about the CM/WM Over sir" I said "That sounds great"

 

We reconfirmed one loss on the call and hung up the phone...

I've seen guys do worse, this hobby tends to do that to a good man when it gets rough....

 

Good Luck!!

 

 

Dr Bob? When its all said and done, find someone who can post a 2 month record of 81-22-6 and be able to predict when they will lose....I must have been kicked by a mule or ate paint chips as a kid.

 

Good luck tomorrow!!

[Yer mom 2]

Sorry guys im drunk here.,....

 

My morning plays...putting my money where my mouth is HUGE (as punishment to myself for spouting off)

 

West Virginia TEAM TOTAL OVER 32.5. - They are now back in the picture with the Louisville loss since they face Rutgers in 2 weeks, time to impress.....

 

Oklahoma State TEAM TOTAL OVER 37.5 - Nothing more than I think they want to spank someone out of frustration from that Texas game lsat week...

 

Good Luck!!

I agree 100%. I will not touch Navy, and am tempted to go oppo here.

Eastern Michigan is at home, getting 14.5 pts(love the hook) and is seeing ONLY 5% of the public.

 

Ive convinced myself(I rarely go against Philly) that I am taking Eastern Michigan today.

I hope I don't see a suckers bet here. There was a delay on the line coming out until last night.

 

Sat 11/11 323 Wisconsin -2 -122 OVER 38

09:00 AM 324 Iowa +2 +112 UNDER 38

 

I like the Badgers -2 for at least 5 units....make it 6.

 

That almost cleans me out. I've had a couple of bad weeks starting with Louis. beating WV. So then this week I take Louis. -6 to Rutgers and get popped on that. I've been a no show those weeks for the Sat. games, just to pissed. I need to mellow out and come together and get some good action with you guys this week.

 

Let me know what you think of my choices here, I'll keep it short.

 

Sat 11/11 345 Tennessee U +5.5 +196 OVER 47

11:00 AM 346 Arkansas -5.5 -222 UNDER 47

 

Tenn +5.5 for 2 units

 

Sat 11/11 367 Notre Dame -11.5 -430 OVER 56

01:00 PM 368 Air Force +11.5 +370 UNDER 56

 

For some reason I just like the Falcons and the +11.5 for a unit.

Wow, both games (Tenn/Ark and ND/ AF) went up +1 full point on the spread!!

 

I'm locked in on the Badger game giving 2. Hard to pass up these other two, what you think??

[GridIronAssassin#1 0]

I loved the Wisconsin game until Stocco's shoulder came into question. There is no way I could say that Wiscsonsin will win with confidence knowing that the status of my starting quarterback is questionable.

That spells trouble. I just hope their defense has a good game.

Added these to my card. I hope the hot stay hot and I catch fire because I've followed my best weekend ever with one of the worst slumps I've ever had.

 

Hopefully, being away from in-game betting and halftime wagers will prevent me from doing anything too stupid.

 

Good luck to all!

[JT 137]

Everywhere I look folks are all over Tennessee. Not spooked by the backup QB who has never started a game, on the road at a pretty good Arkansas team?

[GBFAVRE4 0]

HUGE Bucky Homer here, and I highly suggest you tread carefully with this one. No Doubt that Wisconsin is the much, MUCH better team, but things just dont seem to be lining up for me. With or without Stocco, especially without.

Not to mention I rarely EVER take a home dog that is getting less than 20% Public.(Which Iowa is...)

 

Steer Clear!

FUKKEM BUCKY!!!(I suggest the over if you feel the need to play it...)

 

 

I hope I don't see a suckers bet here. There was a delay on the line coming out until last night.

Just so you guys know about eastern Michigan, they may play at home, but they only get about 4-5 thousand people at their games

 

Also Iowa sucks, Northwestern blew them out last week.. I mean they looked pathetic last week.

 

I am still going to play Wisconsin

 

My Wisconsin line just dropped to +1.5 Looks like some action is starting to go with Iowa

I agree, I would stay away from Navy in this one.

I think Wisconsin will cover, but because of the heavy money on them, I would only include them in a teaser.

AF seems like a good one - I have to think about jumping on the bandwagon first though.

I power rank teams every week and look for gaps in lines, home field, o/u, weather, last years results, injuries. That is why I suck so bad midweek!!!! I don't stick with my system.

JT, Tennessee homer here. Jonathan Crompton will be just fine. He played very well in the LSU game, and I expect nothing less against Arkansas. He's loaded with talent and has been in the system for a year now. And, by the way, do you remember what happened last time a Tennessee QB made his first ever road start? True freshman Erik Ainge won 19-14 as a 13.5 point underdog at #3 Georgia.

 

Philly, you're on 6 of my plays, and have no opinions on two others (Vandy and NMST). However, I was thinking about playing Wazzu, and seeing you and one of the good Covers cappers both on ASU is probably going to scare me off. Can you give me any reasons for that play, because it confuses me a bit?

hey philly, why did you take SMU? Any more reason besides Dr Bob? I'm originally from Houston and they've always been pretty good at putting up points this year. I guess they have a horrible record away.

[iceblumist610 0]

Didn't Crompton play for Ainge when Ainge got hurt last year?

 

No, he redshirted last year. Crompton is a freshman. He played last week against LSU.

[The Shepherd 10]

No, he redshirted last year. Crompton is a freshman. He played last week against LSU.

Thanks. It must have been a year or 2 ago when Ainge went down, another guy stepped up well. I agree with you though that Tenn looks good w/6 pts

I agree. I think Dr Bob's getting too much respect on this one. I like Houston -3 too, indeedy-do.

[Bouve-Rules 0]

Aside from the Illinois game, Wisconsin has been a machine. What is the story on Stocco's shoulder? He got banged up last week and was replaced by the back-up late in the game.

 

Leaning towards:

 

Minnesota -1.5

Wisconsin -2 (assuming Stocco plays)

Eastern Michigan +15

Iowas St. +8.5

Illinois -3

Rice +14

UConn +8

 

Added:

 

Michigan -19

Northwestern +23

Arkansas -5.5

Ah, yes, it was two years ago, Jimmy Clausen stepped in and lost the game against Notre Dame. He did well for the rest of the season though. He graduated last year.

In a game with tons of WR injury issues for both teams, players out, Arizona St is the better running team. I'm taking the small home dog with the better chance to move the ball.

 

 

hey philly, why did you take SMU? Any more reason besides Dr Bob? I'm originally from Houston and they've always been pretty good at putting up points this year. I guess they have a horrible record away.

 

Wrong team is favored. Huge let down spot for Houston. Big time emotional upset win last week for Houston, in Kolb's final home game. SMU 11-4 ATS at home. SMU is 4-1 ATS in conference games. SMU is 4-0 SU at home. SMU needs this game to become bowl eligible. Houston is 1-2 on the road, and the win was by one point over Rice in week one.

 

I agree 100%. I will not touch Navy, and am tempted to go oppo here.

Eastern Michigan is at home, getting 14.5 pts(love the hook) and is seeing ONLY 5% of the public.

 

Ive convinced myself(I rarely go against Philly) that I am taking Eastern Michigan today.

 

Eastern Mich is terrible at stopping the run. Technical mismatch, the way Navy runs the ball.
