    Mo Betta Football

    Knowing that the NCAA FBS Rules Committee lurks here to see what rules need implementing or changing, I propose the following: 1. A 1 yard wide neutral zone at the sideline. The zone itself would be out of bounds. If a player who could be hit on the field of play is hit in this zone, it is...

    Pomeroy Ratings ?!

    Does anyone here use the Pomeroy Basketball Ratings? If so, could you go thru the calcs for determining the winning percentage and score for a game. I can't seem to grasp his explanation. Thanks

    2009 NCAA Football picks

    9/5 Georgia +200 (@Ok St) 9/5 Penn St -27 (vs Akron) I've been watching the UGA game at +210 waiting to see if I could get a little more. At yesterday's move, I went ahead and bought in for fear that the line would drop further. The PSU line has been rock steady, but I am concerned that I...

    Rumor and Innuendo from the Bayou

    Another reason Nutt is happy to be at Ole Miss

    I was looking at Arkansas after I heard that Broderick Green will get to play this year and I guess I had just not been paying close enough attention to their upcoming schedule. Look at this ungodly and unbroken stretch of games (USA Coach's Poll preseason ranking): 9/19 Georgia (13) 9/26 @Bama...

    Rotation Numbers for Week 1

    This is the week 1 schedule. I've only included the Rotation numbers for the Visitor; the Rotation number for the home team is one more than the visitor's number (e.g., NC State's number is 128). The times are Pacific Standard, I believe. <pre> Date Time Rot # Visitor Home...

    SEC Thoughts and Other Ramblings

    This started off as a response to Illuminati's Games of the Year post, but got so far off-topic, I didn't think it fair to post it there. So.... Tim Tebow is the ideal college football player and will be held up as such for the rest of my life, HOWEVER, I have serious doubts if Florida would...

    Barrichello +150 to beat Button in Australian GP

    If you believe (as I do) that there is very little chance of both Brawns finishing the race, there seems no reason to favor Barrichello going out first.

    Massa in the Australian GP

    With all of the technical changes to F1 this year, no one REALLY knows how the cars will behave, BUT 1. McLaren appears to be toast for the season since there is no longer in-season testing. 2. Brawn went fast, or at least Button did, but they didn't go very far at all. I may be wrong, but...

    Heads Up re Music CIty Bowl and Bookmaker.com

    Bookmaker.com graded the Vandy whole game sides as winners at the end of the first half, and credited the accounts with the "winnings". They shortly afterwards discovered their error and removed the winnings. I (among many others, I'm sure) made a second half bet during the time that the...

    Fla. International at UL-Lafayette

    Summary: I am betting Over and if it looks like Desormeaux will be 100%, ULL minus the points For the folks with more idle time, ULL has an incredible running game with QB Desormeaux and RB Fenroy being about the most productive tandem in the country. Because of this, the passing game clicks...

    After 3 straight weeks under .500, I took a week off from posting to see if I could get back on track. I went 15-4 this weekend, so I am going to resume posting. Those picks are not counted in the YTD numbers, as they were not posted. Texas -3' x2 Florida -6' x3 Rice -1'...

    No Polls until November

    Everyone started off saying that USC was clearly the best team in the country, and followed up the first couple of games with comments that USC was the best they'd seen. Then they said that Oklahoma was clearly the best team in the country, and the best they'd seen. Oh yeah, and the Mizzou...
