I had Arizona St winning outright, now with Franklin out that seems even more likely....but I'm not a fan if betting on teams using a. backup when nobody knows anything about him.

that and Arizona State does NOT have a bad team.  Already expected them to keep it close with mizzou, now with franklin out i wouldnt be shocked at all to see them win.  not touching that game.

Good luck to everyone this weekend! lets go USC, A&M, and Texas (never thought I'd say those words, my Lord what has gambling done to me...)

What the hell is Va Tech doing?  If they do not win and cover maybe I should just hang it up for a few weeks!

WTH is going on this year?

Sorry my bad. Zona st, doesn't matter expect mizzou to roll! Whether we like it or not.

Hey man, line has moved to Mizzou -3, so if you are on Mizzou, now is the time to middle.

I was just fixing to post the same thing. Pitt has been HORRIBLE this year, absolutely HORRIBLE. Now VT is making them look like a respectable team. WOW.

Are you kidding me? the team that got blew out by Cincy is blowing out VT.

This is getting ridiculous.

looks like 2-1-1 and im not adding anything.

15-9-1 YTD RECORD

The Great Hambino

A little bright spot in my day... Looks like my parlay is going to hit. :)

4 Team Parlay

Football - College Lines (Game) Point Spread

(112) Northwestern -4 Sep 15/12@01:30p  Competitor: (111) Boston College

(121) Texas A&M -10½ Sep 15/12@01:30p  Competitor: (122) SMU

(138) Louisville -3 (-120) Sep 15/12@01:30p  Competitor: (137) North Carolina

(144) Boise State -21½ (-105) Sep 15/12@02:00p  Competitor: (143) Miami Ohio

Just need aTm to not have a meltdown of Arkansas proportions.

$2 bet wins $24.09. I should have bet more but I rarely do on these random parlays that I do.

Dr. Starcs

A&M and Louisville (barely) get me to 4-0 with 2 games left.

bsking

2-1 on the day but my big bet (USC -7) has some work to do.

 

Dr. Starcs

Rice comes thru for me (barely)

5-0 with UCLA left to cover. If I wasn't such a scaredy cat, coulda won some cash.

bsking

Well USC is screwing me.

Cowboys gotta come through tomorrow.

Dr. Starcs

6-0 my first week.

Beginners luck.

Will, I'm glad I got out of that Maryland game.

3-4 on the day, can't believe I added the Tenn game.

At least my 3* hit so I am actually up on the week money wise. Could be worse.

Can't believe VT laid down like they did, that was pitiful. Wish I would have doubled up on Texas instead of VT.

VT -12....2*
VT -10.5....2*

Glad I laid off of it also. Can't believe that I didn't double up on the Texas game, I knew from the time I saw the line it was the game of the week. Virginia Tech was the one that clouded my vision.

Dr. Starcs

Yeah, and I didn't even take Texas. For some reason, thought ole miss might actually show up.

So 4-2-1 for me on the week, and of course I put my most units on USC. Pushes my season record to 17-8-1, +3.5 units.  Pretty pitiful that I can't hit my heavily weighed games, but the record speaks for itself!

Dr. Starcs

Here's what I like for this week.....

Boise St -4 1/2 over Byu
Memphis +24 against Duke
Central Michigan +18 against Iowa
Penn St -9 over Temple
West Virginia -26 1/2 over Maryland
Notre Dame -3 1/2 over Michigan
Kansas St +17 against Oklahoma
Florida Atlantic +51 against Alabama.

Will update if I change my mind. Lol

liking the Notre Dame and K State lines

DadVader1

Hogs opened at -2 over Rutgers. The line changed on me mid-bet, but I still got it at -2.5. It's already up to -5.

WILL CLINTON

Damn, some of these lines have moved a chunk since they came out.

Locking In

Troy pk @ North Texas....2*
Boise St-7 v BYU....1*



Watching for line movement in my favor
Oklahoma v Kansas St, its already been pushed down to -13.5, liking Oklahoma
Michigan v Notre Dame, its already been pushed up to 6.5, liking Mich
LSU v Auburn, moved down to 17.5, liking LSU
Georgia v Vandy, been pushed down to 13.5, liking Georgia

board

The best bet of the week was alabama and 20 1/2 or whatever. Loaded up at the best I could find on allybubba and 24 1/2.

Free money is free money........

I'm 3-3 on the weekend, will take ATL -3 to break the tie.

I went ahead & took:

LSU -17.5 @ Auburn   3 units
SC -10 v. Missouri.    3 units
Baylor -8 @ ULM        1 unit (it's now @ -7, if it hits -6.5, I'll take more)
Georgia -13.5 v. Vandy. 2 units
Ark -2.5 v. Rutgers.    2 units

Liking OU huh?  Even after K-State's impressive beatdown against Miami.  i'm liking K state in this one.  OU seems pretty banged up and K-State looks pretty decent.

DadVader1

There was a pretty rapid shift in action, so I went ahead & took another 6 units on Baylor -7.

Last week's results:

Raiders -1  Loss, 1 unit
Rutgers +7.5 Win, 1 unit
Bama -20 Win, 2 units
A&M -12.5 Win, 2 units
USC -8.5 Loss, 1 unit
Texas -10 Win, 2 units
UCLA -18 Win, 1 unit

5-2 up 6 units on the week :)

jkstock04

Forgot to post beforehand with everything going on...but my picks of last week:

Va. Tech -10; 1 unit....loss

Obviously Bama was easiest bet of the day, I would have gone 4 units here...but I don't bet against the Hogs in football.  Never have, just would seem like a conflict of interest while at the game.

Sunday I made it up....

3.5 units on Chargers -7...win
1 unit on Niners -7...win

Unit wise put me at 4.5-1 on the weekend....and
9.5-3 on the year. 

Don't think I will touch the Monday night game tonight...but if I had to I would bet the over (52.5).

Thanks for the F Shack. 

Love,

Dirty Mike and the Boys

I use sbrodds.com for lines. 

As we get a bit further into a season, I also look at team stats at the ncaa site: http://web1.ncaa.org/mfb/2011/Internet/conf%20stats/2011000000911TD.HTML

I'll also watch ats records which you can find at a lot of different places.  Lately, I've used predictem.com.

You may laugh, but I also use a contest thread from the SEC Rant portion of Tigerdroppings.com:  the SEC Rant Weekly ATS Picks.  The format is such that you get to see everyone's records ATS and you get to see everyone's picks before the games.  There are usually 2 or 3 folks each season who do extremely well ATS, so I get the benefit of seeing their picks in time to compare them to my leans.

Huckleberry Pig

the lines for most of the games ran away from me a bit and I think I missed out on some good deals.  Gonna just have to be patient and if nothing comes up that I feel very comfortable with I may just hold off.  Only took one line today.

Took W.Kentucky (-4) vs Southern Miss.  2 units. 

W.Kentucky looked good against Kentucky and actually played Bama well.  I like them to take Southern Miss by a TD.

For fun did a 4 team parlay.  bet $10 to win $100 and took:

W.Kentucky (-4) vs Southern Miss

Arizona (+23.5) at Oregon

Louisville (-13) at Florida Intl.

Troy (0) at North Texas

The way my bets were weighted....mainly auburn being a 4 unit play, I actually lost a unit this week despite a decent record.

Hooray for picking the Falcons last night. First NFL win of the year even if its only one unit. It's a start.
