Not if you play money line also

Ā 

There are 50 college football games every week .Ā  You can bet teams that are -350 moneline...Ā  Massive favoritesĀ 

Ā 

Hawaii vs Stanford ... Stanford -350... I'll just put $2,000 on that money line.Ā  Ā Thats an easy 450 bucks

Ā 

And yeah 70% of those bets hitĀ 

Ā 

Friend has been an Oklahoma booster for 25 years and he makes $50,000 a year gambling college football

Ā 

I was 13 and 3 on the bills money line last year lol I took them to win every game

Ā 

Now if I just strictly play the spread I'm not hitting at a 70% clip... But you can pick money line games that are almost guaranteed to hit you just won't get a good return

Ā 

So I know it's not exact, but if you hit 70% on -350, you're losing money.Ā  In your own example, you'd have to win 4-5 games to make up for 1 loss.Ā  That's way more than 70%.

Yea I wasn't using specifics technically.. just guessing at the actual numberĀ 

Ā 

And I'm probably way over that number

Ā 

I'm 7-1 ats in this thread and like 10-1 overall in the thread... 15-2 on the year... Just don't want to lead people to stray with stupid pics in this thread lol

Ā 

I'm just saying usually with the spread and money line I can hit 70+% which is a solid number when you add single bet spreads and money line and parlays.. I don't lose on many -350 moneylines lol probably closer to 90+%

Ā 

It's just a numbers game for me... I've done plenty good at the NFL over the years

Ā 

But just like I take this seriously...

Ā 

The oddsmakers also take this very seriously and are locked in... 15 NFL games a week and the odds makers are great

Ā 

At least I get 60 plus college games to choose from each week... Which gives me a little bit more leeway in finding the correct matchup

Ā 

But I will take a nice look over the next few hours... I just left the casino with the bag šŸ’°Ā
