NFC Champs:

NO +250

NYG +1000

SB Champs:

NO +500

NYG +2000

Matchups:

NYG v. NE +1900

NO v. NE +500



(side note: these are at sportsbook. If I get serious and put some of these in, obviously need to shop around)

(side note: I am not a NYG homer. That said, I watch a lot of their games. Could see them surging here if Bradshaw can have a decent game or two).

Call me crazy but I see real value in taking the Gmen and Pitt to emerge from their respective conferences. I played Pitt to the win the SB and the Gmen to win the NFC in the last couple of weeks at nice odds. I did not play them for more than pocket change however. Pitt is the most complete team in the AFC. NE, even though they are getting Chung back, is going to struggle with a physical team like Pitt. I also can't see Balt beating Pitt three times in one season. Add to it that Ray Lewis is not 100% healthy by all accounts and I do not think it is all that hard to see Pitt emerging from the AFC. I can see why you like NE, but I personally would rather take the longer odds.

As far as the NFC, the Giants present the most value, IMHO. Neither GB or NO has a defense to speak of and SF can be shut down if you can slow Gore down. The Giants are getting healthy and peaking at the right time. They just got OSI back and may get Ballard back this weekend as well. They have enough of a running game to keep the other team's offense off of the field and a pass rush that will cause matchup problems for other teams offenses. Clearly the Giants will need some breaks to emerge from the NFC, including it would help if SF could beat NO in the likely 2nd round matchup, but I don't think it is completely out of the realm of possibilities.

Full Disclosure.. Gmen but I'd like to think that I can somewhat objective in my analysis of them.

The Steelers are not a complete team this year. Their fatal flaw is the OL. They simply do not control the line of scrimmage. Where it really shows up is in Steelers road games. The Steelers are averaging a pathetic 15.6 points per game on the road (that would be 240 points scored pro-rated for an entire season). In the last three road games, they scored 13, 3, and 13. Now factor in the loss of Mendenhall and that Roethlisberger is probably not gonna be healthy the rest of the way. Now factor in the fact that the Steelers are a wild card team needing to win road playoff games. Not pretty.

Do you think the Steelers will hold Ray Rice and the Ravens under 16? I don't.

Broncos vs Steelers, in Denver, might be a 3-0 final.

Take a quick peek at what LSU did to Oregon, West Virgina, Auburn and Georgia, all of whom looked dominant (until the end of the game, in Georgia's case) in their respective bowl games:http://espn.go.com/college-football/team/_/id/99/lsu-tigersMy two BIG bets in the next week will be LSU and a Saints/over parlay (N.O. 52, Detroit 24).I will take a vacation in the French Quarter if all of that comes in.

You can look at Bama and come to the same result. I like bama personally, but I can't argue lsu. Just like the first game I think under is the way to play it. I'm trying to picture 6 TD scored by these teams. The way they run the ball the clock will move.

 

[John Bender]

Morning yall.

I guess I'm more part of the day shift now....oh and the night shift too - I never ####### sleep.

I was holding a 1.5 unit to win 1 unit Clemson Moneyline ticket last night and was just too disgusted to come in here other than to brag about going 4-0 in hoops.

Enough of that....starting to handicap early these days for all you with nothing to bet tonight, maybe bmj and I will cross plays for some solid action.

 

[BeTheMatch]

The last few days have been the worst gambling stretch of my life. I've cashed one - ONE - ticket. Lost about 10 or 12 others. After the Michigan-Va Tech debacle, I decided not to watch last night. Good thing, I guess. Wow. Down a few more units.

Agree, Bama and LSU couldn't be more similar. Their statistics are eerily similar. Even when you look at their 6 common opponents (Tenn, Auburn, MSU, Miss, Fla, Ark), Bama outscored them by 173 total points and LSU by 182. Should be a great game but from a gambling perspective, there's no way I'm putting a big bet down on either team. I don't see any edge here.

[Angry Beavers]

Fensalk, does Pittsburgh getting Pouncey back or Roethlisberger's ankle getting a little bit better week after week, therefore improving his mobility, factor into your thinking that Pitt will be able to put up more points on the road? I think getting Pouncey back on the OL is a bigger deal than most.

I want to try and be the Big East expert I say I am, but I think the Pitt/DePaul line is one of the most solid lines I've seen this season. Curious if you had any other angles on it really. Feel free to let me know your thoughts off the cuff if you'd like.

Sure, why not. Except it was +2500 (I shopped around).

 

[The Ref]

Are you seriously trying to tell me that they couldn't have save the" Johnnies I don't really give an F bowl" and put it on tonight? For example: the BYU/Tulsa game. Instead of having that on at noon on 12/30 when few can watch that game why not put it on now when we would all watch. Just seems dumb to have a gap now.

I'm a Pitt-hater, but I think the line is solid, too ... good spot for them to bounce back with a W

until they hit overtime. I don't think this game will be only FGs like the last one. But as we've seen over the past few days, overtime is a definitely possibility. Here's my view on the game:It’s absolutely eerie how similar these teams are. My prognosis doesn’t change much from the first game. If you need to play something, I think LSU +1 is the play here. When you look at the #s the 2 biggest things that stick out is the favor for LSU on Special Teams and Turnover Margin. This was huge in the first game, and I don’t see it being any different now.Biggest difference since that game is that Jarrett Lee won’t be starting for LSU. He turned the ball over twice against Bama. There are a lot of Jefferson critics out there, but he does take care of the ball. It was a different game when he was in against Bama. Plus, over 80% of his playing time this season has been after the Bama game...so plenty of more gametime under his belt. Now sure Saban has a month to plan for that, but Miles has proven an excellent coach in big games with long times to prepare during his LSU tenure. Additionally, Kenny Hillard has emerged as an excelled power back and has a lot more playing time under his belt, so LSU will always be able to play one of their 4 RBs fresh at any time in the game, which is a huge plus against the Bama defense.While it won’t be a Tiger Stadium type crowd, the crowd will still be LSU favored. All signs to me point to an LSU win.All that being said, I have LSU +8 in 2 teaser legs, 2u on LSU-1 that I played too early.

I look over stats for hours when I pick College Hoops games. Bmj uses a straight system.

Just curious - is the idea here that systems generally iron themselves out and regress towards an adjustment?

Are the sharps generally using proven system or data, news and stats. Seems there is a stigma against systems around here with quite a few failures noted in this thread. We've got some new College Basketball system here every year for like 5 years now.

I think it's whatever works. Some people old school handicap, some people model, some people use systems, some people combine everything.
