Not sure what to think of that Texas/Oregon game. I'd like to think Oregon won't care but then they land on the turf and run the Longhorns in circles.

I like the Over on this one. Up to 68, but punching this for 1U. Mack Brown's last game as HC, and both of these teams are capable of putting up points.

 

[Tiger Fan]

MTSU +6.5 1u even

I have accounts at all of them. I was limited at all of them until recently. They changed the max wagers from risk amount to win amount(ex max 500 to win 454 was the old limit, new limit would be 550 to win 500 at -110) This change seemed to reset all my accounts to full limits on everything, it's crazy but i'm hitting them all for as much as i can as fast as i can until they cut me again. Trying to keep my exposure limited but still take advantage of everything.

Parker - Middle Tennessee State University under 68.5 rushing yards -120

Playing with a sports hernia and a torn labrum in his hip should be difficult today. He has been moved off the primary 2 deep depth chart at RB, meaning he is a rb3 at best today, for a team that should be playing from behind. He is lined as if he should see a full load today, I doubt this happens. Good luck!

 

[The Ref]

Almost the end of an era for me. I just cashed in all my season props at sportsbook.... i figured Id take some of the won money and spread some around on some stuff including a semi sizeable bet on the NFC SB line....... I'm cut to $5 on everything now.

It's sad, but I may of just hit the withdrawal button for the last time (Lacy ROY Pending) on my 12 year old account. You may have got me the first 8 years sportsbook, but hows the last 4 years in ya ###.

Miss -3

Adding:

Tex +14.5

 

[Raider Nation]

Open letter to Middle Tennessee's defensive coordinator:

You might wanna put more than three D lineman on the line of scrimmage against Navy's option attack so that you are able to make first contact on the ball carrier before he gains 8 yards on every play.

You dont get it. They want to hold them to 9 yards a carry and stop them from 39 yard runs. Thats a winning formula.

 

[Raider Nation]

This game is so over. A BAD play for Navy gains 5 yards.

See you boys at 3:15.

LMFAO at the MTSU DE talking trash at the Navy sideline after the first play which went for less than 10 yards the entire quarter!!!

 

[tjnc09]

Couple of autoplays tomorrow

Navy/MTSU OVER 54.5 1.5u

Georgia Tech +3 1.5u

Also playing Techa Tech +14.5

Adding some other sides too, joining TF on Miss State and adding 1.5u a piece on OU +15 and UNLV +6.5 as both of those are borderline system plays and good enough for me.

I like GA Tech a lot too. Also playing the u55.5 for that game.

I can but i've been leaving it in there because the wire fees are $100/transfer so trying to keep it to 2 requests/month. I figure this also helps me stay active a little longer.

how are you calculating EV?

detailed explanation http://www.thegamblingtimes.com/board/content/calculating-expected-value-bonus-170/

$500 bonus X 35x rollover = 17500 rollover requirement

using house edge of ~.5% X 17500 wagered = 87.50 gets eaten up by house edge

500 bonus - 87.50 = 412.50 EV each time bonus is played

We should all just stop talking about it. This is the first year I've kept detailed records but this feels like much better than most years. Not that I believe in stupid things like jinxes or curses, but when it comes to gambling I definitely believe in stupid things like jinxes or curses.

So you are fully expecting some mean regression stuff or you feel like you are just more locked in this year?

Keeping detailed records and posting everything here has also made me only play games I really like instead of in the past where I did some analysis but there was more shooting from the hip. This year I've researched everything before playing it, and so there have been games that I liked and ended up passing on as well as games I thought I liked one side and then ended up switching. Obviously that's gone well. I'm hitting at 60% this year on the nose, so that does seem like there should be some regression at some point, but maybe I'm just really, really good. That's what I like to pretend at least.

Also as mentioned here earlier I've always done better pre-conference than in conference because most of my plays are based on stats and what I see by watching way too many games with very little attention paid to intangible things like bigger home court edges, conference rivalries, travel schedules, and "look ahead" spots which seem to hold more sway over conference games. So I don't expect to hit 60% from here on since conference play is getting going, but I'm hoping I can still pick winners at a 55% or more rate. We shall see. It's been a fun year so far.

If you really want to track how you're doing and take all the bias out track your CLV(closing line value)

You bet team a -3, when the game tips off the betting market has team a at -4, +1.0 CLV

This number is a good indicator of whether you're lucky or whether the guys betting big money agree with you. If you have negative CLV but are winning money you can expect your winning will not continue. If you have positive CLV you're doing something right and keep doing it.

CLV is very easy to track in basketball because most points are equal. It's a little more difficult in a sport like football where the 3 and 7 are so valuable.
