I am an idiot and took A&M and the points. I know I’ll lose but I can see it being a close game




I'm with ya. I'm 0-2 on the day and have lost all confidence. I'm sure the Aggies will get routed

Poor showing by me - ended the day 4-6. Got hammered on a lot of the point totals.

10-8 YTD. On to next week!

2-0 this weekend

UGA -10
TCU-23

How do you guys bet 12 games in a weekend? I will find 5-6 games I feel good about on a good weekend

im with you.

different strokes for different folks tho. if others find success with it, more power, they should let it rip . I'll start with 3-4 game cards early season and then up it to 6-7 games as I see teams play.

I'm guessing the spread will be 9.5 or so, but Auburn will likely be my big play next weekend.

First couple of weeks every year I bet on a lot of games then settle down to 3-5 picks per week.

In the past this has worked out. Yesterday, not so much.

I play multiple games where I see value.

I don’t care who the teams are. It’s about the value. You picked a big time game. I have a personal rule; don’t pick big time games. Too much risk (ie Texas A&M almost beat Clemson).

How are big games “too much risk”?

If you don’t care who the teams are, and focus solely on value, why do you stay away from big games? You realize that those two statements contradict each other?

I take it that he’s pee shy


He doesn’t want to bet while everyone is watching in prime time

But give him a stall and his whizz all over the place. I mean bet

I look for games with value; not only on certain teams that I know about. Maybe that’s where the miscommunication came in.

It’s just a personal rule that I don’t bet on big games; I’ve seen a lot of crazy stuff happen in the prime time slots.

I have found big games don’t offer much “value” because both teams are super close to one another in terms of talent and coaching.
