    Stuck Picks 3

    Sides Taken: Auburn -7 Penn St -13' Ole Miss +24 UNC +7 UAB +25 After a bad week of lines moving against me (though none of them hurt me), this is more like it with only the AU line moving against me on the 3 early picks and waiting paying off on UNC and UAB. I normally end up on 10-12 games...

    Why Some Fans Should Be Happy

    Florida State Fans: By having Bobby Bowden continue coaching as his heyday slips farther and farther into the past, you avoid the identity crisis that STILL grips Bama fans. Bear went out a couple of years after back-to-back national championships, at the end of a decade that saw over 100...

    VaTech@UNC line movement

    What is going on with this line? Early on, it was Va Tech -1. It has been steadily moving towards UNC ever since. Today, I checked and it is now UNC -3. I haven't heard anything to explain this, and I can't imagine that this is the result of a trickle, over 4 days, of sharp money - surely if...

    Stuck Picks 2

    Unlike last week, most of my early picks haven't worked out in my favor as several lines have moved against me, usually in the form of fav lines going down. Since I'm obviously out of step with the bulk of the early bettors, I'm going to wait a couple of more days to see if the lines keep...

    ESPN surprises fan with Final Poll for season

    9:43 am Bristol, CT After this weekend, reasoning that here is no need to play the rest of the season out, ESPN has released its Final Standings for the 2008 NCAA Men's Football (American) season. The BCS quickly followed up with a memo stating their full support and agreement with ESPN and...

    Stuck Picks

    I'm going to post my picks this year (at least until it becomes too embarrassing) just to prove to myself, well, something. I usually troll the Sunday lines for Favs that I think arent giving up enough, and usually be Dogs later in the week as the line moves for me. Sides already taken (Sunday...

    Some Picks

    Troy +18 over Ga Tech Troy has implemented a No Huddle offense and passes the ball now. Defenses get virtually no opportunities to substitute, so the natural depth advantages that bigger schools have against them is mostly offset. That's how thay destroyed Alabama St, and why they had their...

    Illinios at Minnesota

    THIS POST IS NO LONGER APPLICABLE - IGNORE So, twice (and only recently) beaten Minnesota is hosting Illinois this weekend. Looks like another boring Big 10 mismatch that only folks who have already dug their jackets out from the bottom of the hall closet would be interested in. Well, it?s...

    Boise State at Hawaii

    Anyone can look at this match-up and see that BSU is clearly the better team. They have lost only 1 game this year (out of conference, at Oregon State), averaged nearly 44 points this year against all comers, and averaged over 50 against their last 6 opponents, 5 of whom were WAC teams...

    Nevada at Boise St

    Boise State is clearly the class of the WAC. That?s not saying much, but since we?re talking about an in-conference game here, it is important. I believe that BSU has beaten every team in the conference with a winning record, except for Hawaii. The best thing about this BSU team is its...

    Arkansas at LSU

    LSU should be in a relatively comfortable position today. They are hosting the Razorbacks and control their own destiny in the SEC. They need to dominate today if they are going to have any chance of overtaking USC, so they know exactly what to do. The only question is ?Can they?? The LSU...

    Louisville at Cincinnati

    Louisville is favored by 2? to 3 most places. I see them as even team-wise this week, considering injuries. If the game was in Louisville, that spread would be fine ? but it?s not, it is in Cincinnati. My first inclination was that maybe that Eric Shelton was coming back and it just wasn?t...

    Ole Miss at Mississippi State

    Ole Miss at Mississippi State I think this is an easy game to pick the winner and a hard game to handicap. Anyone who wants to take Mississippi State straight up should contact me IMMEDIATELY to arrange credit. Mississippi State is a bad football team. They have no identity, no consistency...

    North Texas at New Mexico State

    I'd like to see what folks around here think of this game - after all, we are forced watch it. I'm willing to share, so here is what I think - North Texas 27, New Mexico State 20 NT has played several teams similar to NMSU this year. As a matter of fact, all of their last 4 opponents (Utah...

    WallStreet.com

    I've been using this WallStreet.com since July and had generally good experiences. Good points are as follows: - Wide variety of bets available, especially props. While other sites may have more props for one or two games, WS has props for basically every game listed. Also offers "exotic"...
