Oh wow. I lied. I teased Michigan cause I don’t trust myself with football and I’m a nit.
Fuck it I’ll give you my card.
I did do Calgary (edit: again I am misremembering my bets) and I got in front of the goalies by gambling the Sabres bum Dell would be in net. The hockey is ½ unit and will scale more on confirmations.
The Notre Dame/Ohio teaser was early in the week. Maybe I middle.
Feel free to hate. I don’t wanna lose money if I can avoid it.
Speaking of rising again
I forgot all about fading the rich Jesus kids @ Liberty this year. Damn.
So we are setting up for a potential final 4 of Georgia, Michigan, Cincinnati and ND.
Why in the world do they want to expand the playoffs to 12 teams when they cant even get 2 worthy teams?
The books definitely take a side sometimes. It’s not all 11:10 and balanced action. The overwhelming money was on Ohio and yet the books were quite comfortable keeping the line steady.
Really is fascinating how it works out. Brings out the conspiratard in us all.
The line went from -8 down to -7 and even closed at -6.5 at some books. That means some serious money was dropped by sharps on Michigan in the last day. The books knew that was going to happen. They were ok with the public pounding Ohio St -7.5 and -8 all week.
Sometimes (mainly in NFL) the sharps and public are on the same Side and the books still refuse to move. But given the late line move I dont think that is what happened this game.
I think this was a typical public taking the favorite all week and then sharps pounding the dog the last day.
I get bored and do these sometimes

Chaps' 2017-18 NFL $$ Thread
The Alabama game is in OT right now, but even if Alabama wins I still endorse this post.
Can we just give the Heisman to the Georgia defense?
Do we really have to choose between 2 guys that fell flat on the biggest stage when the stakes were highest?
I dont know how it is going to work out, but that Aurburn coach not going for 2 and trying to win in 1st OT was retarded.
We all know how dangerous it is to mess around in the pit.

In case anyone was curious, yes I had Colts +3. So so sick.
I have searched repeatedly to no avail- who gave the South Carolina and UAB season over picks? Great picks- SC wrapped it up in early November, and UAB had to win as a 13 point favorite which it did easily.
Thanks. I'll put a $50 bounty on you in the donkament or $50 to the prize pool in your honor, your choice.
I have Vikings +4.
They are down 8 halfway through the 4th Q and have 1st and Goal at the 6 yd line. They have been getting absolutely nothing all game out of the running game and their starting RB had to be carted out of the game, but have been doing decent in the passing game. So they decide to run the ball up the middle on 1st and 2nd down and got stuffed both times. And they wasted 1:30 off the clock on top.
That was always going to happen, so they basically just gave up 2 downs for nothing. And of course they didnt convert on 3rd and 4th down when they finally got serious and decided to actually go into the end zone, and that is that. I mean, it is one thing if Cook is there and you are cooking in the run game, but neither of those were true in this case, so WTF are they even doing?
A good team/coach uses all 4 downs passing trying to get in the end zone. I don't know what the logic is just giving away 2 downs for nothing like that.

Detroit +10 at lakers.
Levron very well could be very worried Stewart is looking for revenge and be even more hesitant to go in the paint.
Also Ravens -3. This bet is a purely chasing the days losses bet, which normally lose. So. Here. We. Go.
Ravens completely dominating half but only up 6-0, and Browns are driving right before the half, and Ravens will be lucky if they only get a FG. Gonna be one of those games. Ravens will probably end up down 2 and win by 1 on a last second FG.
