@thepowerrank: Stanford will miss both of their starting CB's to injury against Washington. Bad, bad place to lose both starters.



Absolutely fantastic! Glad I placed 3 units on the Stanford ML at 5:00am this morning.

Just heard a national betting guy on xm radio say his lock of the week was Cal over Utah. Said he thinks Utah is most overrated team in the country.


Just passing it along

I guarantee you he is a just a tout and not any kind of long term winning betting expert

He is a tout who pretends to be a betting expert to gain credibility to send people to his tout operations and kickbacking online books like lambs to the slaughter

That's what they do. They pay for their airtime. I guarantee you his segment was a paid for spot like sponsored content advertising

I worked in sports radio for years

Every "betting expert" we would have on air was either a tout or affiliated with touts. They were not guests of the programs - they paid for their airtime.

For those of you wondering why I hate touts so much. Because i had to work with them every day. Lying scamming pieces of shite. But I wasnt really mad at them. I was mad at our hosts and management who let them on the air to spew their lies and give them credibility. Nothing I could do about it as a producer

I know what you mean. The touts are all over LV radio. It's great comedic entertainment.

Really busy this week at work, so my only plays this week might just be tails. Other than that think I like Vandy and South Carolina, but damn it's going be tough to pull the trigger on bad teams.

Looking at Memphis Ole miss over or Texas Tech -28.5 as the big play

I'm probably the biggest Tar Heel homer on this site. Stay away! If you like UNC that much, bet the over! No way in hell will they slow FSU down. Only way UNC covers, is if this game is a 52-45 game.

Been taking care of a sick wife all week, so haven't had time to look at anything. Starting to break down numbers now.

UDub will be my biggest bet of the year so far. I usually only play 1-2 2* plays a week. I am 6-0 on the year in 2* plays. Don't believe me? GFY! I don't care.

UDub will be a 3* play. They will have the ability to slow down McCaffery, and that QB isn't beating anybody with his arm.
