5 for thursday


Gordio

Recommended Posts

The Beavers didn't light up the lights in last week's U of CIN tilt. Ore.St was at home, and the way the sun played over the stadium cost UCin a couple of deep receptions. Canfield suffered 5 sacks...the Cin rush wasn't dealt with very well by the OL, and the very talented Rodgers brothers were effectively held in check.

 

I don't mean to crow about Cin - but the final score differential could have been wider.

 

 

Cincy has a real good team this year. It is too bad they did not schedule a high profile game this year because if they did & won they could be in the national title discussion. They are a legit top 10 team & should roll thru the big east this year. The one Rodgers brother was nursing a sprain ankle. Canfield needs to play better this week or they will not beat Arizona.

Well the losing continues in my house. honestly can Ole Miss look any worse? What a bunch of frauds. F snead, I hope he played himself right out of the first round last night. They got Alabama coming up in a couple weeks, good luck with that. Well hopefully the other ones will come in saturday. Tentatively like Nevada +7 tonight.

I maybe the only guy that reads this thread but I am still going to shoot out the winners.LOL

 

Pick of the week - Bowling Green minus 3 over Ohio - Betting 101, Bowling creates mismatches all over the field on offense for this undermanned Ohio defense. BG 31 - Ohio 10

 

Central Michigan minus 8 over UB(sorry Promo) - The house that gill built is in full turmoil. CM is borderline top 25 team & Their QB right now is ranked 2 among senior qbs, one spot ahead of Tebow on the draft charts. CM 42-UB 27

 

Washington +12.5 over Notre Dame - This is going to be an up & down year for Udub bhut I see them bouncing back this week. Oh yeah, the #1 ranked qb among seniors is Jake Locker, washington's signal caller. Washington 27 - ND 24

 

Fl St -4 over Boston College - Getting away from Tallahassee will do the noles good. Simple case of FSU just has too much talent for BC who really do not have a qb. FSU 35- BC 20

 

Clemosn minus 13 over Maryland - I said last week I am going to keep going against Maryland until that fat f*ck Friedgen proves me wrong. Clemson 31- Maryland 3

I was going to post after last weeks collapse, but I thought maybe you'd give up and I'd let the topic fade away. But props to you for sticking with it, hopefully one of these weeks you get over .500. I do like most of the picks this week.

It is going to take me alot more losing & embarassment to kill this thread.

 

I have actually held my own so far this year with the book. It is just that the five I usually give out here lose. Ah well, hopefully the gambling degenerates on this board(& you know who you are) have faith in me & we could all make some money this weekend. Went 1-1 yesterday. Got a miracle cover on the over for WV/Col & lost on Southern Miss.

I have by far had the worst start to a season I have ever had. Think my problem is I am playing to many games this year, so I am cutting way back starting this week, like to none LOL. Well, to be honest have gone thru half my bankrol wifey poo lets me bet every year, so realy don't have much choice :wallbash::D (isn't it fun to listen to her every Sunday night).

 

Anyway, on the Maryland thing, I hear ya. I have made a lot of money betting select Maryland games over the years(always as them as a dog and playing the moneyline)..but they are just too bad this year.

 

BTW , WTF are the Bills doing as favorites this week??? That has ne stumped..think a lot of sharpies jumping on the Dolphins this week.

My wife does not like me betting & she constantly reminds me of how bad I am at it but she really can not say anything since we have been married, I have never asked her once for money to pay for my bets.

 

I agree with the bills, they should not be giving anybody points on the road. If Penny was playing I maybe jump on the phins but I just do not know what Henne brings to the table. I always was unimpressed with him at Michigan.

 

Maryland is bad this year(I mean they are the worst team among the BCS conferences) & so is Virginia although Virginia has been playing a little better as of late. I really do not know how Maryland got so bad but I have been capitalizing on it. They have not even come close to covering a spread yet.

Good idea.

 

Let the Bills move, then we don't have to worry about football!

 

Although I suppose the argument is "we already bought them, thats all Ralph cares about"

 

 

Well 1-4 again this week. Much like the bills I really suck, lost $240 in the college saturday. Won $110 back today. Got SD in the nightcap for a hundo, we will see how that works out. Oh yeah, one more thing, I think I am in love with Dick jauron.

Well, this is the way things are going fro me this year. My previous post here said have made a lot of money playing the Terps as underdogs on the moneyline in the past....but I am not playing this week...guess what happens..

Yeah, lost sd last night so ended up losing $240 for the week. Ah, the baseball playoffs are coming up this week, maybe I will have some luck in that.

Alright, we are going to try to get it right this week.

 

Pick of the week - New Mexico ST +13 over Utah ST - 2 really bad teams, I will take the points.

 

Wisconsin +16 over Ohio ST - Something tells me this fundamentally sound Wisky team keeps it close in the horseshoe

 

Ohio ST 21 - Wisconsin 14

 

Ohio minus 4 over Akron - Have not had much luck in the MAC this year. Akron is a team in turmoil.

 

Ohio 31 - Akron 10

 

Washington +3 over Arizona - The up & down season continues for Locker & the boys.

 

Washington 28 - Arizona 17

 

Indiana + 7 over Virginia - I know Virginia won last week & they have been playing better, however they should not be giving anybody 7pts, let alon a 1/2 way decent team from Bloomington.

 

Indiana 20 - Virginia 17

I am toying with the idea of taking the Bills -6 this week. The Bills have made me $150 so far this year. 6-0 on the NFL so far!

 

 

I like the bills today. Unless they have totally packed in for jauron they should win this one big. May take them too.

I took Buffalo 5x. I loved Detroit and KC today too. Kicking myself for not taking KC. We will see if Buffalo covers. We need TD's!

Just got home from watching the yanks/angels game. I will shoot these out & see how we do.

 

Oklahoma +4 over Txas - something does not seem right about this game. I think Bradford is going to have a big day.

 

Bowling Green -3 over Ball ST - Ball St just maybe the worst team in division 1. Oh wait, I forgot about Western Kentucky.

 

UB minus 9 over Akron - Akron is a team in dissarray. Like UB big here.

 

Army +10 over temple - Temple should not be giving anybody 10pts

 

Utah -14 over UNLV - UNLV has given up 122 pts the last 2 weeks. Been on a pretty good role, won $120 over the weekend & I am 6-0 so far this week(Miami over the Jets, Louis Monroe over Ark ST, Tulsa over Boise, Philly in game 1, cincy over usf, dodgers in game 2) had $50 on each game so this could be the start of getting the money train rolling. Heres hoppin that everybody hits the book hard this weekend. I am going to bed & passing out, wife is not talking to me so looks like I am sleeping on the couch tonight. Night everyone.

If I do say so myself, I have been red hot especially in the baseball playoffs the last few weeks. The college football I have been holding my own & have been doing very well in the NFL also. So I will try to get out 5 winners this week as the holdiay season is fast approaching & I know everybody could use the extra money this time of year.

 

Pick of the week - Idaho +16 over nevada - this idaho team has made me alot of money this year & I do not think it will stop in Reno. Their coach has this team believing that they will receive a bowl bid this year & at 6-1 they are already bowl eligable. Still need to impress the bowl committees though. Close game, I think they pull it out in the end.

 

Idaho 27

Nevada 24

 

Washington +10 over Oregon - Never easy to play in Husky stadium, getting the 10 I see great value in this line.

 

Oregon 20

Washington 17

 

Toledo -2 over Temple - I think Toledo has too much fire power for Temple to keep up

 

Toledo 35

Temple 24

 

Kansas St -4.5 over Colorado - Kansas with Nebraska losing last week, controls their own destiny for the right to get their asses kicked against Texas in the big 12 championship

 

Kansas 35

Colorado 17

 

Boise St -25 over Hawaii - There was a time when no matter what program you were, going to the big island in all likelyhood meant coming home with a loss. Times have changed, this Hawaii team is bad. Boise needs to win & win big to stay ahead of TCU for a BCS invitation.

 

 

Should be a good weekend of college football, looking forward to it. Hope everyone hits the book hard this week.
