This year I am 46-44 +3 or +4 units in CFB I believe. I'll have to double check. I got too aggressive in week 3 and got blown up in week 4.

Last year was my first year betting. I was like 10-2 regular season, and then took some of my winnings and bet on bowl season. I can't remember what that record was.

This is my first year to really take time to study and break down games. Last year I was a total square and just got lucky really. This year I'm more of a rhombus than a square.

Why do you ask?

Just wondering if you are worth tailing, you seem to be winning most weeks that I've checked and I've been terrible most weeks. We actually like some of the same plays so far.

I've had two hot weeks (11-1, and 18-8), one mediocre week, and two bad weeks.

I'm being more patient and picking my spots later in the week. I felt really good going into the weekend last week. I tried the second half system we been working on here last weekend, and I went 8-5 using that. But without the system, I was 10-3. One of those losses was a 0.2 unit ML play on UAB and a half unit for fun teaser. So on straight plays I went 10-1.

What you liking?

Mizzou and ULL sides are both plays for me.


Waiting to see some totals before I have an opinion there, may follow you on Ole Miss Texas A&M

I wish we jumped on it early. It opened at 60 and jumped up to 65.5 already. Might take it there to avoid it going up more, but I don't see it going up too much higher without it coming down a little.

ETA: Ole Miss/A&M that is.

ETA2: Looks like it opened at 65 or 65.5 most places. It shows it opened at 60, but I think it's wrong at the place I watch live odds.

I really think Mizzou is getting undervalued, but I'm waiting around to see what it does. I bet it will hop up and down around -7.

I'm hoping Tulane announces that Griffin will be playing and ULL comes down a little, maybe under 21.

Thinking of doing a 10.5 point teaser

Oregon -13.5 vs Washington
ULL -13 vs Tulane

Need a third game out of:

Ole Miss +22 or Northwestern +13.5 @ Penn State

Thoughts?

Like your first 2, don't like either of the others as part of a 3 team teaser

Yeah, that's the issue, finding another game. The first two I'm very confident in. I can't find a 3rd I'm equally as solid on.

Exactly. I think sometimes people (including me) forget to include totals in legs of teasers.

Especially in ten pt teases.

WV game will go over without the tease so should be $$$

I've had success teasing live dogs up... NW is a very strong live dog.

So what are we thinking about ULL giving 23? I put one unit on it as I said I would (between 21-24). Any word on the QB situation?

ETA: Right now I have

Missouri -6.5 (-130) vs. Vanderbilt 1*
LSU -2.5 @ Florida 1*
ULL -23 vs. Tulane 1*

What about this?

Ten point teaser:
Kansas at Kansas State (-14)
Mississippi State (-0.5) at Kentucky
Boise State (-1) at Southern Miss

I think I may have a winner here. PLEASE let me know. I'm 1-4 on the season.

Southern Miss is bipolar as hell.

Also I think Mississippi State will win, but Kentucky just improved a lot in their last game vs. USCe.

What's the safest potential teaser bet?

Michigan State (-5.5) at Indiana
Boston College (0) at Army
Arkansas at Auburn (0)
Georgia Tech at Clemson (0)
Tulane at UL-Lafayette (-13.5)

I'm thinking I'm gonna stick with Mississippi State (-0.5), Boston College (0), and ULALa (-13.5)
