400


Got bored at work last night and put 50 online...started off 8-0 and up like 1100 :lol

Guess I made a good return...just wondering how much money I skipped out on being the local recently (less options)

Hopefully I take it to 9-0 with clippers +4.5 ...prob jinxed my self tho
Am I reading this right? the over under for the epl game was set at 4.75? The hell?
 
I'm afraid that capping these games so early before kickoff will lead to possible oversights, but on the same token, this way I won't overthink it. I'm locked in for tomorrow...

Marshall/Maryland Over 62.5

Marshall has weapons. QB (Rakeem Cato - you may have heard of him), WR, a sure-handed TE and a solid RB. Dynamic playmakers surround the very good QB, Cato. They averaged 42 PPG and even though they take step-up in competition (based on their home conferences), they still have the propensity to score when needed. How else would a Conference USA team put up 21 points in regulation against the #4 ranked defense in all the land (VTech)? Maryland is no Virginia Tech...On the Marlyand side of things, you have a team who has been good around a rough patch in the middle of their schedule and a few key injuries to their top 2 receivers. They've had guys fill right in and keep the offense going, albeit surely because of their dual-threat QB. When you got a dual threat that is not only just a threat, but an efficient passer, that means points. Coincidentally, Maryland too, put up 21 points in 4 quarters against that same vaunted Hokie defense. Game should be close, which should help the over in the long run, but the edge I found with this one that I really like is ST's. Maryland has a very good kicker who can boot FG's, but for somereason, they don't have many touchbacks on kickoffs. The oppotunity to run up the field should be a huge plus in getting a dangerous offense close to midfield a few times throughout. On the otherside, Maryland has one of the better returners around and is a danger to return it back everytime. Shorter fields, dynamic O's with above average Q's and we've got ourselves a barnburner!

Minnesota/Syarcuse Under 47.5

Short but sweet here. Syracuse and Minnesota run, run and then run again. Neither like to pass, and what's interesting is despite the aversion to throwing, they aren't off the charts running the ball. Just last year these two teams met and the game ended 17-10.. Minnesota has an underrated defense that flies around, but can be susceptible to run-gashing drives. With all the running, it will make the game appear as if it's being played with a running clock. Don't expect too much ballyhooed shaningans from Syracuse either. Minnesota's coaching staff won't buy it. They've been together for YEARS (on various teams, but staff remained intact for the most part) and should have a well-laid plan in place to stifle any Syracuse scoring attempts.

BYU +3.5

Was leaning Washington, but again had to put my homerism aside for this one and divulge myself into the situation as a student-athlete. Firstly, the coaching change. A few coaches have already ran away with Sark to USC, but the most obvious hurt here is the loss of HC/OC, Sarkisian. He was the real leader in that locker room. Everyone loves Keith Price's smiling face in times of rejoice, but also in despair, but I wonder if he can really rally the troops for this one. If this game was played on paper with talent levels prevailing then UW cleans up relatively easy, but Bronco Mendenhall's teams are always tough and have bowl experience (he's made it 8 straight years) and UW has all their main cogs looking ahead to the NFL next year (Price, Sankey, ASJ and Casen who is injured). The reliablity of Price on Sark is akin to Brees with Payton. Hell, we saw Price struggle when his QB guru OC (Doug Nussmeier) went to 'Bama after Keith's sudden rise in 2011, so I can only imagine what being without his eye in the sky Sark will be like. Marques Tuiasosopo takes the interim role for now and I'm pulling for the guy, but he doesn't peg me as someone who can devise a sound gameplan on offense that utilizes all the talent on that side of the ball to the optimum level that Sark did. They'll probably play loose and have flashes of being unstoppable (Petersen will take over soon and start with a clean slate and Tui is aware of this and for the most part has nothing to lose), but with no clear leader and a defense that is a bit overrated, I see BYU coming in like this is a business trip and taking care of it en route to a W. Bowl games are huge on deciphering if teams really want to be there and then coaching situations. Both in favor of BYU (stable coaching situation and fluidity in gameplan/practice and UW stars all might be looking ahead the NFL now that Sark jumped ship).

Idk how I feel about the Maryland/Marshall game ...never know what Maryland team will show up...and I'm still tight they blew that cover against BC :lol
 
Went a perfect 4/4 yesterday. Up like 6 units last night.
The NBA was good to me taking Cavs, Spurs and Rockets.

Last minute I decided to tail Paul on that Under on last nights college game (I don't even watch college sports).
Paul I thank you so much for the time you take to cap these games.

I'm going to take it easy today...maybe just lay down one unit on a game. Lord knows the money can go easier than it can come in.

Good luck to all here. Keep it up.

currently on a roll thanks to y'all :hat


looking at NHL tonight:

i like Bos, Pit, Tor, and Chi. Will parlay some or all of that after some more thought.


NCAA FB...will ride a couple of 651's bets...again :lol
 
Prez....just learned one of the forwards on Pit's top line is out now with an injury. Pit has been one of the few teams that doesn't seem too affected by injuries, but worth considering tonight since this is the first injury to the top line.

thanks for the heads up DSA

i think im going to add Toronto to the above listed parlay
 
total up to 65.5 now 

really don't know what the **** to do

Spanish basketball league is calling my name but I was cold in november betting that **** 
 
The ball is moving up and down the field, just too many FG's and not enough TD's. Hopefully that changes in the 2nd half.
 
Lost with my Spanish bet

Chased with in-game 1st half under 38.5 on the Maryland game -135 juice was steep but I wanted my money back :lol

Third quarter was crap. It's still a close game though so OT is still a possibility. That or a scoring flurry in the 4th.
 
Damn.

Hopefully the under comes through for me in this next game since I have twice the units on it, but I feel like Marshall and Maryland left a lot of points on the field. Oh wells.
