2015: 4-4-1 -0.35u

Wasn't a great weekend. Didn't watch a second of the Texas game but it sounds like the refs had it out for UT.

I've hit a few since open.

1) Arkansas +7.5 -115 1u
2) Louisville +5 -110 2u
3) Kansas St +5.5 -110 2u

As I was submitting my Umass +3.5 bet the line moved to Umass +3, so I laid off. It's now Umass -3.

I generally don't bite on these big opening lines for teams that looked spectacular the previous week, but UCLA -13 seem strange to anyone?

Also eyeing Florida at home getting 7 as well.

Mississippi State +7 at A&M

I don't typically place any bets this early in the week, but this one looks good to me.

They had trouble against Auburn on the road.

Didn't Auburn get inside the 5 yard line twice and come away with nothing because of turnovers? Not sure aTm will do that.

I dunno. I'm not sure I trust Moo State on the road against a much better aTm team.

Just get on the right side of the 7 at least.

Oklahoma State -5.5
Tulsa +8
Texas +18
Florida +6.5
Boston College +7
Illinois +7.5
Central Michigan +3
Texas Tech +15

Starting to run my sheets

Interested in how high they will set the over in the Texas Tech/Baylor game... my model has that as a 62-48 final score.

Started out really well the first two weeks and have sucked it up the past two. Hoping this week will be better

Same, had my first losing week this past week. Need to get back on the winning track. Was kind of cocky with games this week and bet just to get in on action. Always my crutch.

I think Vanderbilt +3.5 is the honeypot line of the week

Everyone will be on Vandy based on how they played vs. Ole Miss

MTSU is not a bad team.

Just ran my model for all 54 sides of the week, nothing above 80% and hardly anything above 70%.

I will check and see how numbers above 65% did last week tomorrow.

This is going to be the case going forward as my model phases preseason numbers out of the final output and incorporates more 2015 results. It's going to be closer to Vegas lines as I imagine we both use the same types of calculations.

Right now its 4/7 2015 and 3/7 preseason numbers for teams that have played 4 games vs. FBS competiton.
