blah...went against the grain and did a 2 pick w/ Bears and the over....

bears couldn't get that td and packers missed a fg...oh well...

 

[kal ripped ken]

what a terrible weekend for me...what do you guys think about college/nfl this weekend?

 

[mr marcus]

thinking about texas a&m on thursday.....think ima download a game or 2 of theirs and breeze through their defense to see what its about

 

[mojodmonky1]

should be free money tomorrow for the WEC event.

Jose Aldo is -600. Aside from flash KO, I just dont see anyway that Gamburyan can beat him. Total +EV bet here.

Alright fellas. Let's get a discussion going on some games this week.

I'm going back to college this weekend. I'm walking on thin ice with the NFL.

So far I got:

Texas A&M +3
Minn +5.5
Oregon St. -3.5
Notre Dame - 2.5
Huskies +10
Stanfor +7
'Bama - 8

That's what I'm thinking so far. Thoughts? Opinions?

oregon gonna crush stanford.....oregon should be 14 point favs

 

[what up]

I'm sitting on the other side of the fence with Okie State. A&M has played really weak teams so far this season, so they'll need to adjust to the speed of the Cowboys who have been putting up points at home.

Is it because they're at home?...I can't get over Luck possibly being the equalizer and making this game a bit closer.

yea the game could possibly end up being close but i just don't see it as of now.......i feel like oregon offense will give stanford fits....Luck is good but i can't see that offense matching oregon td for td.....i honestly feel like oregon will be up 2 tds going into the 4th.....i could be wrong.....who knows 

 

[651akathepaul]

I certainly don't, but I want to bet this game!

I should stay away, but I'm just trying to piece together a strategy. It's in Oregon and they've already made an SEC team look like their little sister, but I like Luck and Harbaugh.

Troy is trash but only lost by 3 to Oklahoma State.  Bet the house on Texas A&M with that logic...

my point is that they both played trash teams...couldn't care less about a major conference team blowing out sorry teams

......only advantage osu have is it being a thurs night home game on espn.....neutral field a&m easily....only thing that has me hesitant is a&m being shook by the moment 

but scared money don't make money and thats whats gotten me this far so tomorrow if i'm feeling the same i will place my bet on a&m at 6:30

 

 

[mftioa]

Any thoughts on Chicago +4 at NYG?

 

[rareairbreeds23]

Is anybody else not jumping all over baltimore +1.5?  The steelers are bound to lose one game without Big Ben.

[nikepennyiv]

I like the Baltimore play this week...The Steelers are at home vs the Browns after their bye too which will likely be a win and I really don't see them starting 5-0 without Big Ben. They are bound to lose at some point and I think this is the week.

 

[venom lyrix]

my 2 sure things are Oregon blowing through Stanford and Bama destroying those Gator frauds.

 

[what up]

Does anyone know what the initial line for the Kent State-Miami (OH) game was? My boy swears Miami was favored by 2 and now Kent State is -3...

 

[mr marcus]

your boy is right.........


scratch everything i said about the oregon/stanford game.....oregon should blow them out but i'm 75% sure this game is a no play for me.....only way i bet on it is if the line shift in oregon favor or i win enough saturday that i just don't give a !*!+

I'll add Penn St. +7 to that list.

I was on 'Bama til I thought about how fast Florida's defense is. Then I watched college football live this afternoon and heard they had a week called "Bama Week" during camp where all they did was preperation for them

Speed can kill, but not as frequently against a National Champion. Alabama, my guess is, will counteract that speed by bludgeoning Florida to death with the run and controlling the clock. Thus, keeping FLA off the field, in turn, neutralizing their speed. But, what do I know?
