found the meltdown for Tenn/NW Under. it starts out pretty happily:

quote:

Cal/AF O70 WIN
Baylor +3 2H WIN
LSU -6.5 WIN
Bama -9.5 WIN
Teaser - Clemson +10 / Bama -4 WIN

hell of a week so far. also want to brag for a second. i wrote off this season several weeks ago and said that I'd have my first losing football season in 5 years after going down ~$900 following multiple weekends of bad bets, chasing, and poor money management. Assuming I don't give all my cash back to the NFL this Sunday/Monday, this will be 6 consecutive winning weeks and I will be back in positive money. it's crazy how far you can go with quality money management and careful, selective betting. glad I didn't abandon ship when I was in the gutter.

thanks for all the different perspectives and weekly discussion. let's keep winning

also, Praise Dwyer for His weekly 1-play bombs. we are not worthy of His grace, yet He still shines His 2U lock on us each week. those definitely helped too I will keep them coming as best I can

night, everyone



Dwyer's pick comes in

quote:

Dwyer's play just came in. Tenn/NW U48.5



the stress starts to mount. BilJ:

quote:

Tenn needs to chill




I lose it

quote:

you can not be serious




RawDawg:

quote:

oh no...



Me:

quote:

i literally switched over from Ohio St-ND to see the ball fall into his arms and watch him house it. holy fricking shite, i ahte fricking football




then LSU Shock chimes in:

quote:

Lost that one with you. Ouch.




me:


quote:

exactly. frickin thug pos. hope he tears both achilles and never gets to play again. what a piece of fricking shite




again:

quote:

im still stunned. 3rd pick six that has fricked me in the arse this year. frick berry and his family. frickin thug pos motherfrickin trash

It wasn't your normal pick 6. It was a 100 yard pick 6.

But let's not mention this again. Season is Tomorrow. No need to let the negative energy carry over into the new season.

Been so busy with the politics forum(emotional and financial reasons with this election) that I barely jumped in this thread.


0-1 so far

Adding Auburn+7.5

will add more gameday(mostly 2h plays)

UNT was horrible last season and they're only getting 10, littrell first year HC, installing the spread and picked up a couple key transfers. This is a rivalry game for UNT (and at home) but not for SMU. SMU fell short of my expectations in several games last year especially down the stretch. If littrell can keep this close, it will be huge for a first statement game. Also like UNT RBs in this one, especially in the new spread attack.

Not football related but I have been at the Westgate for the past hour or so and so many guys here thinking they are master experts because their baseball parlays won. This one guy just hit an 8 teamer when the Cubs won. I turn up and look at the board and sure enough 15 of 16 MLB favorites covered today. Really hope this does not happen in CFB this weekend.

Edit: Right now I'm listening to these 4 guys to my right make discuss their college football bets. I don't think they understand what spreads and money lines are. The one guy in the group who may have a clue and is explaining what spreads are just said he has a 5 team parlay for tomorrow of all overs. And says both Louisville -38.5 and Over 59.5 are locks because "I think Louisville scores at least 60 by themselves"

I remember when I was a novice and capped games with such elementary angles. Listening to these people makes me appreciate the more tactical discussions in this thread.

Everyone was a novice at some point. As they say in poker... don't tap the glass.

That was some real good times, I remember that game got moved back because of the weather. Everyone was on the same side, everyone won.

Entertainment size wager on App St +20.5 for me. Debated posting this or not but it's a good spot.

Is there an app that will send notifications when your book moves a line? Or when a line gets to a certain point?

Also tonight I have WKU -15.5. Anybody have anything on one of the late games tonight, preferably Minnesota Oregon state? I'm getting into Chicago 8ish and plan on finding a spot with some tv's and good beer. Would like an entertainment level play...

I'm thinking OSU is getting a lot of points, but I really don't know. Haven't had time to research.
