    Duke went for 2 after scoring down 14. Now down 8 with me +7. TCU a missed xp that cost me straight win, but at least they won and Illinois +21.5 looks quite good.

    I know, I had Duke +7.5 and TCU -2.5.

    Standard.

    Edit: Duke scores TD on last play Hail Mary. Hope they miss the 2 pt conversion of course. It is insane how many times I have lost in OT when had +7.5. Cant risk it.

    Edit 2: They tried some retarded trick play that had 0.0% chance.

    --Amazing. Tactical genius on display.

    Had Minnesota -2. Minn has 390 yards to 239 for Iowa. But because of 2 turnovers on Iowa side of field and a missed chip shot FG they are about to lose either 17-10 or 13-10.

    LOL. LOL. LOL.

    The NC State offense was indeed trash today due to injuries and they are who we thought they were. Binked the under too.

    Rough week for me betting-wise. Yesterday could've been good (1 fairly clear win, 3 close losses), but it wasn't.

    Here's some NCAAF for the late afternoon & evening:

    UCLA +2.5 vs USC
    Arkansas -110 vs Mississippi (-1 ok)
    Colorado State +22 at Air Force

    Left about 44 points on the table between these two games due to excessive parlay nittiness. Offsets my UConn Army loss

    I’m opposite Druff with Hawaii - the reason escapes me now

    That’s it for me.

    Tomorrow is a monster for me. I have so much stuff pending Ravens. Was delighted to hear about Lamar Jackson’s illness this morning. Woulda been consistent with Fall 2022 nonsense

    I think much of Kalem’s posting is parody and fun. Regardless, he really hits the right tone for how I feel past few weeks. I’m snake bit.

    I NEVER do NBA unders. Just not my thing. Decided that U227 in the Toronto/Atl game was just too much value to give up, despite misgivings from a lifetime of losing with these bets. Game going under the whole way but of course OT and game over. You lose. It is what it is.

    Had U46 in the Cal/Stanford game.

    Stanford is down 10 and kicks a 60 yard FG on last play of the game just to make the game go over. Gives them no chance to win game. First time in my life I have seen this. To make it worse they got 15 yards on a 4th and 2 with 10 seconds left in game just to get them into position to kick a 60 yard FG on last play.

    There are no words. It is just darkness.

    USC too. Not as surprising of course, as UCLA actually has a pulse.

    We both have our NBA misery.

    You'd think an 8 point lead and the ball with 1:46 left would be good to cover -3.5. You'd be wrong. Ends up a 3 point win, and I lose by 0.5 for the second day in a row.

    I did get Arkansas though, as it's a blowout.

    Sorry I can't root for your USC pick. We're both running bad so this one will be close.

    The Gamecocks are also considered USC, btw.

    USC is clearly the better team. But in a rivalry game like this who knows what the final score will entail.

    I saw you have Col St. +21.5 too. Air Force did them kind of dirty right before the half. Faked a kneel down at end of half and got 35 yard run to set up FG. Bet Probably would have lost anyways, but sucks.

    I never have and never will refer to S. Car. as USC. But amusing nonetheless.

    This is insane.

    I have U61 in Washington game.

    Washington is up 21-0 with 1 minute left in half. Colorado has the ball around their own 10. I am looking good.

    It then goes

    1. Colorado safety
    2. Washington TD on short field
    3. Colorado Fumble kickoff with like 10 seconds left
    4. Washington kicks FG

    --12 points out of nowhere and now I am behind the 8 ball.

    Speechless.

    So it was announced that Bo Nix was out, and the line went to Utah -2, and I took it.

    And then he started the game and led an opening TD drive.

    Good stuff there.
