Agree with you on Bama crushing Michigan, the 14pt spread was too much for me to bite though...  I definitely like Bama in this one, just not gonna bet it

Now that Michigan has suspended their starting RB for the Bama game, -14 might not be too far fetched. Now they can focus on stopping Robinson for the most part.
Go Hogs Go!

When I checked earlier in the week my line was mich st -6.5, but was afraid it would go up. Be a nice 3 unit hit if it comes thru.

It is a bit of a risk, not knowing how Boise will respond with a new QB, but I kinda like the current odds, Boise +7-1/2.
Go Hogs Go!

Anybody know who Boise suspended? Usually the whales get info like this, u would have expected the line to move in favor of msu,  not Boise.

Just takes one stupid play like that to turn a profit to a loss.

I can't believe Mayweather put 3 mil on Michigan tomorrow.  I was leaning Michigan and the points early in the week, but more and more thinking bama. Just don't know if Michigan will be able to score.  Still undecided on that one.

Jeff "hogfanintx" Anderson

Sweet fancy Moses.  Mich St can't wait to get it back so they can turn it over again.  Left sooo many points on the board tonight.  I'm going to bed.  Tomorrow is a new day and maybe Sparty will improve while I sleep. :)

2 times in back to back nights, beat by a conservative offense. Kick a FG for my sake. Both games had the same spread, same ending score, and both teams had a chance to cover. Unbelievable.

Never thought I'd say this, but thank God for Tennessee or I'd be 0-3 right now.

I am breaking one of my own rules, and I am on too many games today, but I am locked and loaded on my picks alread.

OU-30   3 unit play       I may add to that one later.

Colorado ST +6 1 unit
FL -28   2 unit play
Bama -14 2 units
San Diego ST +14.5   2 unit play
Clemson -2.5  2 unit play (this one feels so right, but scres the hell out of me.betting against any SEC team playing out of conference)
ISU +1.5   2 unit play.


Let's see what the day holds.

Boise usually plays their first game of the year well.  They play very well when they have lots of time to prepare.  I actually picked Boise St to win in pick'ems and definitely would have played them to cover the spread.  While Mich St missed a lot of opportunities, that pick Boise threw in the end zone early in the game hurt too

This is why I enjoy sports investing.  I wouldn't have cared about northwestern and Syracuse otherwise and it turned into a pretty good game. Just glad it went my way for once.

My main concern is how far off I was on the 3 I lost. Especially Oklahoma. WOW at UTEP hanging with them.

Gonna do a little more looking and studying this week, or it's gonna be a long season.

WC, you had a lot of company w/ the OU bet (me included). OU (or Utep, depending how you look at it) fooled a lot of people today.

Woke up to an email saying I won the ou utep game because apparently I accidentally bet on utep...so while its good news, for all intents and purposes,  I went with Oklahoma and posted as such so I'm counting it a loss.

Today I'm on Kentucky +14

Wound up going 3-0 on the weekend....up an even 2 units on the year.  Everything went pretty much how I figured it would. 

My only mistake was not taking advantage of the Bama-Michigan game like I should have....instead of a 1 unit bet it I should have at least bet 2...probably 3 on that one. 
Thanks for the F Shack. 

Love,

6-6. Minus 2 units.  Worrisome part is I usually kill it week one.  Oh well see if I can pick a winner tonight and have a great week next week.

We need to petition Lanny to start a new forum for handicapping. Sound like a good idea?

Not the best weekend, but not bad. need to study up some more this week!

I'm looking at the opening lines, and my favorite of the year so far is

Georgia -3.5 @ Mizzou....2*

Gonna go ahead and put this one down. This may be the first 5* lock of the year by the time the game gets here.

Georgia has better athletes, better coaches, they are going to win the SEC East, and may go undefeated until the SECCG. Georgia is the best team in the East, and it won't even be close this weekend. Mizzou gets a RUDE awakening this weekend.

I also hate Mizzou, and Georgia is my 3rd favorite SEC team.

How do you guys like Washington @ lsu -22 this weekend?

Night game in baton rouge. Lsu looked less than dominant this past week against north texas. While Washington beat San Diego St 21-12.

Lsu usually gets up for big night games. Washingtons defense is supposedly revamped after a terrible last year.

Thoughts?
