FFA Wagering Thread: THERE HE IS!@! (8 Viewers)

mid afternoon fun...

Idaho -24

u46 USC/Vandy

Utah St+3.5

probably will add E. Michigan +24 (I don't think UVA should be favored by 24 over anyone...but this burned me with Vandy a few weeks ago, so I'm still thinking about this)

 
The bad news: I suck at gambling on college football

The good news: LHUCKS appears to have lost interest in this thread after getting his ### handed to him over the first few weekends.

 
u24 in the LSU/Auburn game looks good, no? Neither offense is really effective, both defenses are good. Jarrett Lee banged up for LSU, looks like a lot of runs inthe second half. i dunno.

Auburn's defense stinks, LSU just cant take advantage of it...I would be leery of OT or some ####.
 
Jefferson stinks worse than the Auburn defense, imho. YEah, OT would kill the under....but I don't really see much scoring in the second half. I suppose I'll pass though

 
13 point awesome teaser this week!!!Balt -1NO -1SF vs Car ov 22 1/2STL +16What do you guys think? am I wrong to think that this is an extremely enticing teaser?
Get on Bodog and put the above (lines have not changed) you can make some money back from today :lmao:
 
AF was getting 16 1/2 points @ Okla and lost by only 3. OU is the #1 team in BCS

Now AF is going to TCU and getting 18 1/2??? :lmao:

 
Jeremy Maclin +3 vs. Billy Sims

Dat Nguyen -14 @ Wilt Chamberlain

Jamal Mashburn +5 vs. Herschel Walker

Marshall Faulk -24 @ Brian Urlacher

Mike Schmidt -158 vs. Willie Mays

 
Headed out for the night....

MMA I'm looking at to punch before I leave...

Tito Ortiz +145 - Ortiz pretty much made Hamill a fighter; he was his coach on TuF a few seasons back. Ground and pound vs. Ground and pound here but I think Tito should be favored against Hamill. Tito has a LOT of experience in the ring, is supposedly healthy (finally) and it doesn't look like that next level is ever going to happen for Hamill. I've been pretty unimpressed with his development.

That's really my only play - I like Kampmann to have a punchers chance, but Shields is SOLID.

I think Lesnar rolls, but I'm not interested in betting on him.

I have to say i disagree bud with your Tito call, I am on Hamill and Lesnar pretty good. Ortiz looked better then i thought he would against Forrest, so i will buy out a little bit with what i already took on Hammill with a nice arbitrage opportunity. I do like Kampmann as well, and have some other plays in. I like Roberts, Shaub, Paulo Thiago and Stout. A lot of action tonight in this event

Damn - was hoping we were synced up.Agree on Thiago, I like him.

I sincerely aplogize about E. Michigan against Vandy 2 weeks ago. I felt terrible for a few days on that one. Just showed me that no matter how bad i thought that line was, you never know if the team is going to show up and play.
 
oooof a meaningless td with 12 seconds left just cost me 3 bets, game, total, 2h....going to be a while before i forget that one.....

FU BALL STATE!

 
I'm falling hook line and sinker for this Washington State game. They are +35 against Stanford

last five WA St. games:

[*]Oct 16 - Lost 24-7 vs Arizona

[*]Oct 9 - Lost 43-23 vs Oregon

[*]Oct 2 - Lost 42-28 at UCLA

[*]Sep 25 - Lost 50-16 vs Southern Cal

[*]Sep 18 - Lost 35-21 at Southern Methodist

They put up 67 points in 3 games where they weren't exactly playing tomato cans. They lost by twenty to the current #1 team in the nation and even would have covered this week's Stanford-spread against USC (50-16 =34 points obviously).

Stanford on the other hand has averaged 35 ppg in four of their last five contests (excluding a 68 point blowout vs. Wake Forest)

That seems like an amazing disparity to be 5 td underdogs. They have fought hard and this line seems WHACK.

To all the vets out there; am I missing something?

ETA: I'm editing my stupid lines from last page for posterity. Jax has moved to +12 @ KC due to their quarterback quandary.
Not to pat myself on the back or anything, but can I get some credit for this diagnosis? Final score was almost exactly on par with the averages (38-28 Stanford) It was probably the easiest bet of the week..
13 point awesome teaser this week!!!

What do you guys think? am I wrong to think that this is an extremely enticing teaser?

I actually took this the day you posted it :thumbup:
 
Might kill myself actually.

Shoulda just went to RN's crib to watch the games instead of drinking and pressing and losing at poker.

:hot: That's horrible man. Oklahoma screwed up a parlay and teaser of mine too, but nothing like that..
 
2 Dimes on Oklahoma -3
Hard to argue with this one based on the past. I also like Northwestern with alot of you guys, scares me though as i have been lukewarm at best with college football this yr. One of my bigger plays is the over 56 on the TTech/Colorado game. 2 units (100 dollar unit) and keying it in a couple 1/2 unit parlays.
Why is it that my record on my key games sucks? The other 2 over/under games I liked both easily cashed. Had such a great start to the day too cashing in every 1st half bet I made on early games (thanks to the people here with Navy and a couple others) along with my Arkansas and Temple plays. Sickening to have so many good picks get trumped by one bad one. Ttech/colorado scored only 17 in the 1st half and we still had a chance to win in the end. I fart on college football.
 
So Giants seems like the easy play tonight. Dallas's line is always moved by their fans. No way should they be favored, this is a PK at best.

I have to agree. I can not see how the Dallas OL can contain the Giants DL. It seems suspicious to me, but I will fall for it and take the Giants tonight as well
