I put a chunk on Mizzou at +4.5 when the lines first came out. I just checked the line thinking I might put some more and now it is at -3. A 7.5 point swing in just over 24 hours. Insane.

I feel like Clemson should be favored -6. Bama being favored is kinda weird based on how they’ve been playing. As a Bama fan, and I had to bet, id take Clemson +1 for a small wager.

Seems like everyone in one of the other 5 bowl gambling threads like Troy today.

Not sure their conference is as good as what N.Texas has played. FAU would butt rape Troy, and S.Alabama already did that to them.

I'll take an offense who can run and throw, and get the 7 points with N.Texas.

And it's always about which kids want to play, or who is just enjoying a vacation and packing it in. Have to hope ur side showed up.

Think like 70-80 percent of the public is on Troy.

2 bad the FCS is about over, 5-0 on their games. 4-0 in quarters and 1-0 on over last night.

And JMU is a 1 pt dog at home, and weather will be in mid 40's for game, with sun. little wind.

Have to play JMU later

Colorado St ML..... this one could get outta hand
Over in Boise/Oregon game.... this one scares me
Way over in Arkansas st/ MTSU game.... love this bet

So both of these teams skip the FCS playoffs to play in this instead?

Care to explain the thought process there?

Probably unique to the bowl season.

Underdogs rarely use the points, they normally just win outright. So I get that part of it.

But I'd be interested to see his unit breakdown to see what his profit would be, especially when a favorite covers.

Pointspreads do not come into play as often as people think. So either the favorites will win > spread or the underdogs will win outright. So what I’m doing is betting for the underdog to win outright while insurancing it with a favorite -points. I understand that I can get middled. Essentially I’m laying 2 units to win (ML payout minus 1 unit) that I won’t be middled.

It looks dangerous but I’m going to try it out and see how it does. I have a 20 unit stop loss strategy.
