I've learned many things about specific teams on specific days, one of them being DONT EVAH bet against Virginia Tech in Blacksburg on Thursday nights! Having said that Boston College is a much better team and theyre playing insync right now. Looks like all of you guys are on BC tonight, if ever there was a time where a road team should cover in Blacksburg on a Thursday, this is a good spot getting 3 points I guess.

 

No play tonight, I wont be the least bit surprised if it lands on 3 for a push. Ill be rootin for you bastages to cover with BC, that'll be my entertainment source.

 

Good luck boyz

I just put in a wager on Boston College. They are playing well right now and are generally the better team. Add to that the fact that you're getting points, and I really like BC. Good luck all. :thumbsdown:

Looks like the line might be moving on Air Force, so I am going to put my money in now for tomorrow.

 

Well I screwed this up. Instead of the line moving to 5.5 as it looked like it was going to last night, it is now at +7. Dr Bob can move the lines...

 

Good thing it won't matter!

Tough one, low posted totals for whatever reason have a way of staying under. Good luck with whatever you do.

Virginia Tech has had a chance at a turnover about 7 times so far in the 1st half, and have gotten none of them. How focking frustrating. No luck whatsoever.

No. Virginia Tech has had a chance to FORCE about 7 turnovers, and now they turned it over themselves, which is a kick to the balls.

I always ALWAYS look at the weather before I place a big bet...until today. I guess because I didn't hear anyone talking about it, I didn't realize there was heavy rain for 48 hours straight! This could be one of the most careless decisions I ever made and completely kills the momentum I've had this week.

 

And of course, I'm chasing my money by taking the Air Force ML. It's going to be an ugly night!

New Mexico and Air Force are on the VS. channel.

 

NM looked sharp on the opening drive of the game, and nice bounce back start after last weeks debacle vs San Diego St. :doublethumbsup:

 

Also, 2nd half line is VTech (PK)@-120. Given that V Tech is just missing out on turnovers, they are unlucky to be up only 7-0. VTech 2nd H is awfully tempting.

NCAA YTD 55-39-4 up 29.1 units

 

Boston College +3

Air Force +6

BC/VT 1st half under 21.5 - winner

AFU/UNF 1st half over 23.5

 

Good luck all.

 

1-0 to start the night and week.

Any thoughts on over under 17 for the second half? That seems to be awfully small.

In a situation where it's such a low scoring game, you have consider Vegas doesn't make huge mistakes on lines. I would think the over would hit in the 2nd half, somehow, someway, to approach the game line for the over/under. The value is on the over. However, given the weather conditions, I couldn't really bet on it. Hell, it could end up in overtime for all that we know.

 

My buddy makes a killing at studying opening lines, and betting on value like this for 2nd Halves. Me, I'm more of a gut feeling 2nd half bettor. Unless you consider how I got drunk and played a bunch of 2nd halfs last Saturday for no particular reason. But I digress.

Air Force tied it up at 7-7, off a turnover and short drive. I think it was a tipped ball INT.

 

AF attempts an offside kick, and NM recovers. Might be an old fashioned Mountain West shootout in the making.

As long as Air Force wins, all is right in the world. But Air Force can't stop anyone on 3rd down! :music_guitarred:

On the other hand, a phantom flag on 3rd down can wipe out a NM TD. 10-7 NM.

AF takes the lead 14-10. It's a shootout. Should be a fun game to watch. Gotta refresh my drink.

what is your bet with Air Force? To win straight up?

 

Air Force to win (+215)

 

Stupid bet chasing my even stupider bet in which I couldn't be bothered to research something as complicated as "will water pour from the sky nonstop?"

 

And yes, it's still a stupid bet because there's plenty of time for AFA to blow it. I'm hoping AFA can pick up a few more scores and play some defense so I can middle/hedge, not for greed, but to minimize losses.

Anyone have the BC/VT game on? How can BC still be sitting on zero?

 

ESPN - Ryan looks awful & his receivers are dropping everything

Virginia Tech's defense looks dominant right now. This game could easily be A LOT worse than it is. Ryan has missed in something like 10 of his last 13 passes.

VT is playing unbelievable defense so far. I don't know how much longer they can keep it up. They are playing with so much emotion.

 

Matt Ryan has jumpy feet in the pocket with the VTech Dline pressure.

Told you the early lead means nothing. Lobos in the red zone already after two STUPID penalties by AFA on 3rd down!

 

NM FG cuts AFA's lead to 8.

AF up 21-13.

 

Considering that AF scored 14 points off turnovers, NM 2nd H looks extremely tempting. EXTREMELY tempting. But I won't tip my hand of what I am doing, because it's bad luck. :overhead:

 

I am trying to figure out what is good luck. It's going to be a volitile balancing act.

 

NM TD. Nice. :thumbsdown:

 

Edit: 21-21 ball game.

Turnover. Things tend to even out over time, not necessarily in the same game, but sometimes they do.

Considering the conference, I think that the WAC, MWC, and Conf USA tend to have the highest scoring matchups. It's really risky to bet over/unders in college in general, and that is why I avoid them most of the time. I hit the only one I played this year with the OVER in BC/Bowling Green, but I felt uncomfortable putting it in. I realize that I am rambling.

 

Good luck GR. I wish you well in your bets. O/U are tough in college.
