In all seriousness a real sharp like RAS just tries to get the best number possible. He'd either be on Arizona +14 or Ok St -11 and nothing worse. Especially true in the NFL. 3.5 and 2.5 are two totally different bets.

LSU gets to 20.5 I may lean it. Otherwise not touching it.

Also UGA -1.5 seems like easy money just from looking at it quickly.

UGA will be -3 or worse probably -4 by kickoff.


Why is everyone on Duke? Thats a late arse start for them. Super late.Gets to under 14 and Im snapping Stanford

Duke beat a good Sun Belt team handily. Stanford on the other hand struggled against San Jose St.

East team going to West. Its like a 10:30 start for Duke. Its like how Chaminade normally covers the first game in Hawaii.

Squares played Va Tech and Mich St this weekend.


incorrect. Sharps were on Va Tech -6.5 and the only sharp action on the Mich St. game was the over 46. They lost these two plays but ended up winning small for the weekend. The ND total was a huge blow to what would have been a very solid opening week.

Exactly! They were either on Ga Tech +8 or Va Tech -6.5...

I teased Michigan State down to -0.5.

Does that make me a sharp, a square, or a very conservative gambler?

Yeah I don't think anyone here would have done GT for less than 7.5. Wouldn't have been worth it IMO.

I don't like to make too many huge bets outside my 1 and 2 unit bets. I may just keep my original bet and ride it out.
