Pachall will expose some of LSU's D, and LSU will have success on offense...I think it's gonna be really close to 50...27-24ish

I think he has cappers for sports he doesn't cap himself. His UFC bets are usually spot on from some sharps he knows.



I dabbled in tailing picks during CBB this season, and decided I just don't like the concept of it. Half the fun of it for me is figuring out my own little systems.

I'm also considering going in on Baylor-31. I think they can just name their score.

The FAU being really really really bad at the game of football part trumps any "look ahead game" considerations, imo.

That said, I'm not touching that game.

Ill tail him on random sports when I want action. Like UFC.

For football I use him as a resource. If he's on a side I like it'll make me more confident. Against me Ill research it more.

Yeah, I guess maybe I would tail in a sport like hockey that I have zero knowledge of and never will...just to have action on something.

Is there generally any movement on BTB's picks at release? Thinking about dropping the $90. He's extremely transparent, and there's no way that wouldn't be quickly won back given years of pick %s.

BobbyRay - What do you think about Ok State -14. I feel like they might score 50 against MSU.

I have the LSU game projected as LSU 24 - TCU 19, low enough to take a shot at under 50.5 but I wouldn't take a total much lower. Comfortable down to 49 or so.

It's going to be a sweat, I'll tell you that right now. Same with Bama/VaTech u46.5.

Fwiw my buddy is a starting wide receiver on okie state, he told me they are going to wear down miss state and run super fast pace. Thi doesn't bode well for miss state with the defensive departures last year

Doesnt lowly wofford run the triple option. Little teams like that can grind the game down making a big number tough some times

That said, havent really looked at the game much

That's kind of what I'm feeling, fast paced offense slinging it all over the yard. MSU has to replace Johnathon Banks. I feel like if Oklahoma State can score 35 points, they will cover.

Nah. He doesn't shift the lines. You can usually grab what he gets within a few hours if not longer. Just depending on the game. Nothing to do with his release.

He's a good dude. Will respond to tweets and answer questions. Never one to suggest paying for picks but when it's as cheap as BTB for a lifetime then it's worth it for an extra set of eyes.

He bets 1k as his unit. And he doesn't need to profit from selling his picks. He wins enough to be able to donate his pick selling money to charity.

After seeing how much MSU's defense was affected by A&M's pace, this wouldn't surprise me at all. I'm big on OSU and got it at -12.5 too.

they will be good this year, i think they win the big 12...they have a stud running back to replace randle so they shouldnt skip a beat offensively
