    We are in this together for the game. LFG

    Coyotes over is lining up for the good guys too
    What chance did you think you had of not losing this first-5 bet when the Astros went up 5-0?

    I'd have ripped up the ticket.

    Amazing that came back to tie. Now it's in extras and the Phillies are up. Must feel good to be a failteam getting hot at the right time.

    My NCAAF record thus far isn't very impressive (unlike my NFL which has gone great), but here are some picks:

    Notre Dame +103 at Syracuse
    Kansas State -1.5 vs Oklahoma State
    Louisville +145 vs Wake Forest
    Missouri +150 at South Carolina
    Eastern Michigan +215 vs Toledo
    Charlotte +15.5 at Rice
    Tulsa -102 vs SMU
    Massachusetts +103 vs New Mexico State
    Georgia -23.5 vs Florida (ploppy pick)

    Totals:
    Navy vs Temple - Over 41.5
    Boise State vs Colorado State - Under 42.5 -115
    San Diego State at Fresno State - Over 43

    May I not go 0-12.

    Record in NFL, first 7 weeks:

    Week 1:
    1-0, +1.51 units

    Week 2:
    6-1-1, +4.53 units

    Week 3:
    6-1, +5.89 units

    Week 4:
    4-0, +3.73 units

    Week 5:
    1-2, -1.09 units

    Week 6:
    4-2, +2.87 units

    Week 7:
    3-1, +2.77 units

    Total through 7 weeks: 25-7-1, +20.21 units

    Note that each bet is 1 unit, so the +20.21 figure is due to some underdog moneylines coming in. I don't do multiple unit picks like some handicappers, as it's a bullshit way to falsely pad your record.

    A start for the ages.

    At my peak, I was 18-2-1, +16.57 units.

    However, I have still gone 7-5, +3.64 units since then, so it's not like I'm slumping.

    Also notable is that, of the 7 losses, six of them were either leading at some point in the 4th quarter or I lost by 0.5-1 points (or both). Out of 33 picks so far, I've only had one bad one (Saints in week 2), but that was made before a key injury. So if you take out that one (because of the unexpected injury after making the pick), all 32 picks either won or were close.

    I don't think I'll ever be able to duplicate this.

    This one was fairly easy to predict, 5 weeks since their last game so was going to take them awhile to get their rhythm. Playing at a very loud away venue against an underrated team and half of theirs were new combinations or inexperienced including a rugby league convert who doesn't know what the fuck he's doing half the time because the structure is so different from what he's used to

    I will pitch in when I know the lines are off on anything Australian/NZ Sport related as I follow those a lot closer than anything else

    Australian NBL Future, not that many would be interested

    New Zealand Breakers are the best defensive team in that league (Early on but short season/playoffs compared to the nba) They are paying +1100 somehow to take it out. Should be about +500 to +600 so pretty good value I believe

    Speaking of Irish Catholics - that fail school Boston College down 10-0 vs a truly awful Connecticut.

    Penn state picked off twice in the first 5 minutes, Could be a long day in happy valley. Update penn state seems to be playing hard but as the old saying goes” Sometimes your best isn’t good enough “

    I’m on the wrong side of this ND game barring a miracle. Glad most of you are the other way. Horribly coached game both ways. ND was dominating LOS and had 7 offensive points and caught a break the other guy was more retarded going for it. This game is setting back the black coaches association 20 years.

    I looked at this. How did TT hold WVU to 10 last week? WVU sucks, but scores. TCU-WVU is on pace for average 90 point Big 12 no defense game today. That TT game scared me away from betting over on TCU/WVU today.

    Wow, I just had probably the worst beat of the year. I have W Virginia +7.5.

    TCU is up 3 and has 4th and 3 at the W Virginia 35 with about 20 seconds left. W Virgina defender is offsides pre snap, so no matter what happens TCU is getting the first down and kneel down and game over. I only lose IF TCU scores a TD on the play, and they do.

    So sick.

    Had a good week last week. I guess this is where the wheels come off, everything goes against me, and I get buried.
