I wonder if they did that on purpose
Probably did, just to generate more hits.

Exactly how "money" is he?
Over 62% for NCAAF, NFL and CFL combined last year. Pretty much unheard of numbers. Currently on an 11 of 14 run with MLB Det/KC under 9 and Rams pick em pending (number is now -5.5).
I posted that Rams bet on TD and it didn't get much play. Should have. You don't beat the line by 6 very often.
Make sure you follow @phillygodfather for his DSP parlays on Sunday mornings as well.

Oh wow I thought you just goofed when you said Bama+13 earlier...I guess the website messed up and actually had it listed that way.

I'm thinking about adding BYU -12.5
quote:
BYU opens up against a Washington St. team now led by Mike Leach. This feels like a horrible matchup for WA St.. BYU has a stabilized its QB situation that should only improve after going on a 9 game winning streak to end the year. What's most notable is the seven starters they return from last years #14 defense. Leach debuting his "uncoventional" offense, with guys he didn't recruit for it, and haven't had time to become fully immersed in it, against what could be one of the country's best defenses this year, smells like trouble.

Interesting. Already following @phillygodfather per your recommendation in an earlier post.
Thanks for the info

South Carolina (-6.5) at Vanderbilt
This game will be ugly and filled with turnovers. Carolina has an excellent defensive line, an above average linebacking corps, and a powerful, ball controlling offense. Take Carolina to cover, but expect to be sweating bullets until the 4th quarter when Carolina's depth and physical playing style will take over.
Had I not already placed my week one wager, I would take this in a heartbeat.

That sounds like a write up from predict'em.

It's a pending bet. The game has yet to be played.
ETA: The outcome is pending.

RAS just released the over on the UCLA/Rice game.
Posted on 8/29/12 at 2:33 pm to ChemE in the OP
Sorry for so many questions who is RAS? And do you also follow him steady?

Posted on 8/29/12 at 2:42 pm to TigerTatorTots

Right Angle Sports. One of the few widely respected statistical analysis groups around. They play the first 7 weeks of NCAAF and the go primarily to NCAAB.
Their stance is most of the value is lost once Vegas tunes their models so the play early year NCAAF, NCAAB, and WNBA.

So do you follow them heavily? Do you think the UCLA/Rice over is a good play? I only have one total so far and that is over 61 on BYU/WSU which now up to 65.
