If you arent hammering Navy at -20.5 you're an idiot. Notre Dame is a sinking ship.

If you are hammering Navy to win by 3 TDs then you’re smoking crack

Sounds like the play is wait to see what the weather looks like. Rainy and damp, take an alternate total under with the 23% boost.

I started a thread and an admin anchored it because I tried to start a free contest over the season using a site that would tabulate weekly results.

Week 0 Matchups (Current Lines)
ND -21/50.5 over Navy (Dublin)
UTEP -1/53 over Jacksonville St (new to FBS)
New Mexico St -7.5/45 over UMASS
San Diego St -2.5/49 over Ohio
Vanderbilt -17.5/58.5 over Hawaii
USC -30.5/66.5 over San Jose St
Louisiana Tech -11/58.5 over FIU
Home in bold

I’m taking Hawaii +17.5 and New Mexico St -7.5.

Boosting a -110 would be wasteful considering it wouldn't do much as a +1000 or better future bet would.

I’d suggest learning how point spreads work before hammering anything.

It’s a $25 max bet with the boost. Gonna turn a -110 into + money

Got ND -19.5 earlier in the offseason. I'd still take them at -21. Navy has been awful the last few years and they're going through a coaching change. They're going to be horribly outmanned on both sides of the LOS.

missed the under 50.5 on nd/navy and looks like it is headed to 49

ohio/sdsu missed as well that is trending towards a pickem from ohio +3.5

missed umass down to +6.5 from +7.5

flip on jacst-utep, utep now favoured by -1

How bad is New Mexico State to only be a TD favorite at home vs UMass?

New Mexico State did finish 7-6 and returns 9 starters on offense so they should improve upon their 26ppg scoring average.

UMASS the last 4 years on offense ppg: 12.5, 16.3, 3.0, 19.8.

Did any of the shite that happened with their basketball team earlier this year spill over to football?

I’m thinking umass somehow pulls off this upset.

Boosting -110 to let's say +120 pays you a little over $50.

Now if you boost LSU to win the SEC, for example, you go from +450 to a little over +600. That would be much more profitable than +120. You can get +120 just by taking away a point in that particularly game.

It's a waste of a boost to put it on -110 or less.
