    Wild BoWlS & CfP

    I've always been in favor of players getting paid but the way their doing it is awful. I think we know that at least a lot of the high profile players have been getting paid behind the scenes for decades. But this NIL stuff has ruined it for the fans and the bad thing is that most fans are ok...

    Who doesn't have Netflix?

    Magnets? Yes! Still do. Watch some of the movement on field goals. But whatever. I just try and give myself something. I don't bet on who I think the better team is, I bet on what I think the narrative is and/or if it looks like a lot of money on one side then I go the other etc. A lot of it...

    why is Fresno favored right now in "live"?

    Yes, I posted about that kicker in another thread. Unbelievable. He could have actually been the hero after those two really bad misses and missed yet again. Can't do much more than put it in the middle of the field for him but honestly as it was happening I was hoping they'd run the ball a...

    Wild BoWlS & CfP

    I was gone all day yesterday and just now seeing the score. 5 overtimes so I know the over hit and I know your teaser hit. I'm leaning Montana State in that one but after watching their last game I jumped on the "Touchdown Tommy" bandwagon lol so haven't put much thought into it yet. Is it a...

    Who doesn't have Netflix?

    I don't have Netflix but I watch almost zero NFL the last decade or so. I bet a little here and there and use stats to play Fantasy. I used to love it. Now I'm getting where I can barely watch college which is like the only thing left that I have. I watch college football and March Madness.

    Wild BoWlS & CfP

    Can't believe that asshole missed yet another field goal. 48 yarder and he left it SHORT. Then a 42 yarder wide. Then could have totally redeemed himself as they put it in the middle of the field for him....35 yarder and he missed that too. Weird game all the way around. Fresno does a weird...

    James Franklin?????

    And just to follow up, Fresno State's shitty kicker has a chance to be the hero w a chip shot 35 yarder that they put right in the middle of the field for him....and misses yet again. Thank God I at least got the Over but what a bullshit loss.

    why is Fresno favored right now in "live"?

    Was there a turnover soon after? I know there's a slight delay but that's still weird. And that game sucked. BTW I can't watch and be online at the same time lol. That's why I didn't reply before. When I saw your post I went back to the living room to watch again. No smart phone, just a very...

    James Franklin?????

    Great comments guys! ChasDee, I love the quick kick but it seems like no one on earth remembers that it's a great tool. You know you have almost no chance at a first down so you punt w no returner and have a chance to get a good bounce/roll. It's even better when you have a Danny White or a Tom...

    James Franklin?????

    One other thing about the original topic and analytics in general. My dad was a coach back in the 70's and 80's. He loved Darrell Royal and always talked about "the long way home" and how so many things can happen when the other team starts on their own 20. I know the game has changed and...

    James Franklin?????

    I love Army and their coach but he did the same thing. 4th and 1 and up by either 14 or maybe even 21 he goes for it. Anal-lytics are great but there is also game management and one stop in those situations can swing a game the other way just like that. My guess is that Franklin would blame it...

    Jord20 Bowls

    Paul Crewe did a more convincing job in the 1st half against the Guards.

    Jord20 Bowls

    Pretty sure we know who Jennings bet on. He also had a little help from his O-line w both blocking and false starts near the goal line. This game an absolute joke.

    I Like SMU but may buy it up to 10. I don't buy nearly as much as I used to but I still try to get to certain #'s in football. Only # I really worry about in basketball is 3. Other 2 games...it looks "too easy" but might just do a Texas/OhioSt ML Parlay. Haven't looked at the payout yet...

    Army Navy

    Seems like every year both teams have 2 or 3 weeks to prepare for each other as well as to get healthy if necessary from minor injuries, etc. Like you say, Army played a tough Tulane team for a conference title last week while Navy hasn't played in 2 weeks and done nothing but prepare for...

    a few takeaways from Sat action

    May write more later today. One of my kitties is begging me to go in the living room so I'm gonna go watch the selection show soon!

    a few takeaways from Sat action

    I put a little bit on "SMU to make the playoff" at -340 I won 3 prop bets on Skattebo yesterday I like Ewers a lot but w the injury and Arch's mobility I wish they had made the switch at halftime. I wonder, what were the SMU kickoffs all game? Any touchbacks? 16 seconds and he kicks it to...

    Why oh why did I not just stick w Clemson? lol

    This has me kinda stumped

    Smitty, totally agree and I was actually thinking yeah what if SMU just said we're not gonna play. But then I thought, well they would prob just call it a forfeit and make a rule that if you forfeit then you don't go to CFP or whatever. I actually changed my mind on the bet. Took SMU - 2 1/2...

    This has me kinda stumped

    There are many ways to look at it as well as the committee's agenda. I don't think you should punish SMU for playing in a conference championship game while Indiana sits below them, doesn't have to risk playing, and is automatically in. But like Arrow says, it's all about money and ratings...

    one....

    Good win! I didn't realize it started before the other 2 games and my site didn't offer an in-game on that one. I pretty much broke even for the night though.

    one....

    I'll follow!

    Tulane- Army

    If they had beaten Notre Dame then they'd be one win away from the CFP as an automatic (top 5 ranked conference champions). But if they win tonight, UNLV/Boise State winner will be ranked higher and they'll get in. So close though. Hoping they win tonight. I'm gonna take the points and small...
