I've learned those bets that look so enticing are the ones to avoid.

That was why I asked. As I said I am new to this, and am just kind of making mock picks to see if I might want to play a few bucks at some point.  Actually when I made my picks earlier this week, I got Atl at -21/2.

Anyway, I just find it interesting to see where the lines get set every week, gives me something to keep track of on Sunday afternoons.
People ask me what I do in winter when there is no baseball.  I will tell you what I do. I stare out the window, and I wait for spring.

I like Colorado State +9.5 @ BC

I do too, haven't been able to pull the trigger yet though. The line movement has been heavily in BC's favor.

Added VA -27.5

DadVader1

I get the sense that the BC line may have gone from a BC cover at -5 or -6 to a Colo. St. cover at +9.5.  The spreadsheets loved BC at -5 or -6, but the game no longer stands out at -9.5.

Tonight:

Old Dominion -2.5 2u
New Mexico +4 2u

Just got a warning on my website that it will be out sporadically tomorrow so I will need to get all my Saturday picks in tonight

I received the same warning.  Wonder if we are using the same "service".

Yeah, just noticed that warning myself :/

Most of the picks I make, the line tends to fall in my favor towards the last minute. So this probably means a slow weekend for me.

What are you doing?

Seriously! That's the most idiotic betting pattern I've ever seen, and that's without considering the Hogs could win outright.

And good luck today Jeff. Looks like we're on a lot of the same sides this week.

Sir pigs even though he could likely hit both; doing him a disservice not calling that out. No wonder Vegas turns a profit every year like they do!

Unfortunately making money as I have been for 3 years by betting money lines instead of spreads... Would have gladly laid the 300 for a win today. Smart bettors understand moneyline wagering. Take Ole Miss vs Memphis easy winner that hits 95% of the time. Instead of worrying about lines you can pick winners.

I highly doubt you have been making money betting heavy favorites. If so, you may me up $10, so congrats.

Man that's like betting Tyson in his romp.

Bet the money line win bet the money line win. Oops buster Douglas .

I'm not doubting you, or your profit margin, or what you do.  That said I have been at this a very long time and make a lot of money each year. I promise it's much more than three.

Ok, I was out riding a bicycle 100 miles today and got a kick out of calling in a Jeff tail at mile 65.  I added ND-9, so here is what I ended up with:

UCLA -3
Kentucky -17
TX St. +3.5
Colorado +14
TCU -32
Virginia -27.5
ND- -9

So far, so good.  Fingers crossed.  I'm loving that the ones that didn't make the final cut still performed well.  I think the spreadsheets are ready for prime time.

3-0 today, brings me to 13-11 YTD. Fourth week in a row to turn a profit.

Won on TX St. +3, NC St. +19, and UVA -27.5

I also just noticed karma is turned off, smh at MMQB.

Another good week.  Thanks to Jeff for the ND call.  Went 6-1 on the week for +5 units, making it 16-11-1 and +5 units ytd.  I'm optimistic that the spreadsheets are getting dialed in (11-3 over the last 2 weeks).

UCLA -3  W
Kentucky -17  L
TX St. +3.5  W
Colorado +14  W
TCU -32 W
Virginia -27.5 W
ND -9 W

Another great week Vader, I look forward to what the spread sheets like next week. Some lines I think will be favorable are TN vs. FL, RUT vs. MIC, and Stanford @ ND.

Especially early in the year. I bet money line parlays early in the season. Mix in one LSU/Wisconsin type game and the payout increases greatly. I've won 5 of 6 weeks the last two years.  Turned 300 into just under 3000, in week 2, this year. That is by far the best I've done, thank you Oregon.

I started using a site, this year, that lets me bet FCS/FBS games. I made a killing on those.  Might not be the "smart" play, but it works for me.
