nice spreadsheet, i need to do something like this and keep up with mine.

I think the reason I had a good year last year was because I had balls. It's like poker, you have to have the balls to pull the trigger on a risky bet and not a safe bet. That's what separates the pros from the rest in poker.

I rode Wake Forest in the 2nd half of last season. They were consistently multiple TD dogs in every game, yet I rode them and went 3-2 in the games that I bet them on(all were dogs of at least +15).

3-2 isn't amazing but its still a profit, and it would have been easy to think "they will get blown out and not cover" but you just have to sometimes go against what the "safe" pick is.
