Disregard below; game is on apparently.

Rumors that the UNC-Florida A&M football game may be cancelled tomorrow due to A&M having too many ineligible players to play. If you can find a UNC season total under 7.5 with decent vig may be worth a play as this is by far their easiest game of the season.

Also if you’re able to bet UNC spread worth a bet as if the game is played A&M possibly will be extremely short handed.

If they don’t play 12 the bet is canceled

Line is 44.5. I dont even know what it was before all the suspensions. You like that number?

Also, got anything else for today?

Line was -34.5 before the suspensions. Know you were asking Daly re: games but that’s something I can answer at least. I wouldn’t touch this game personally because there’s a lot of back door cover potential - 3rd string may be in by halftime.

No problem. Definitely feel free to answer any question from me you have an opinion on.

Took Nebraska (LOL) and Illinois plus the points. Broke even minus some juice. We move on.

Ferrari has proven they can fuck up a cup of coffee. But they are faster than Mercedes and with Max starting from 14th on the grid, this race (with proper management) should come down to Sainz & Perez. When is Sainz going to have a better chance to win his second Grand Prix other than this week in Belgium on pole? Not any time soon. I am not unloading the clip but Carlos Sainz is good bet at +300/+275 imho.

Hopefully no one was up early enough too get punished to bad. Ferrari fucking sucks. How Max takes the lead before half the race starting 14th is just absurd.

Just a really brutal year. N

I really hate backing the awful Sawks on the road, but here we are.

There's a wind blowing out to center tonight in Minneapolis, and Dylan Bundy has a HR problem -- 36 of them allowed in his 199 IP pitched since 2021. He also gave up 41 HR in 2018!
Boston's Branyan Bello has allowed zero HR in his 22 IP in the Majors thus far.

Boston (Bello) +100 at Minnesota (Bundy)

[Sanlmar]

Any thoughts Dodgers Mets, Druffster? Scary. Obv Mookie will be back

I’ll offer a quasi-dog in exchange

Tampa Bay vs Marlins +1½ -117


Toiling away at US Open. Wonder if Sam Snead is on it

[Dan Druff]

Took some days off as I've been in a legit mini-slump, albeit one mainly from bad luck, as all of these losses have been close.

Coming back boldly with a dog pick on the fail Angels:

Angels (Sandoval) +170 vs. Yankees (Cole)

Sandoval has been very solid since July 29. His last outing was the only blemish, and that was in the 6th after an error made him melt down and give up a bunch of unearned runs.

[Dan Druff]

Angels lineup really is lolbad aside from Ohtani and Trout. And I guess Taylor Ward, kinda.

They got 3 runs thanks to a home run by Ohtani, following 2 errors and an infield single. I'll take it. Now I gotta hold my breath for these final 4 outs with the Angels bullpen.

[Dan Druff]

Gotta fade Judge and Stanton in the 9th with 1 run lead. Lord help us.

[Dan Druff]

Close one, but squeaked by.

I have Illinois +3 at Indiana. They are up 17-16, but it should be like 31-16. Halfway through 4th they have 27 first downs to 13 and have well over 100 more yards of offense. Defense is playing lights out, but offense just so many unforced errors. This smells like a brutal beat coming.

I also have Illinois O5.5 season wins, so really need them to win and shouldnt need to be sweating like this.


I also have Colorado +13.5 FWIW. They are up 3-0 ten minutes into the game.

This is insane. Illinois has gotten in FG range 3 separate possessions in the 4th Q, including a 1st and Goal from the 5 and scored 0 points. 2 turnovers and turnover on downs. The WRs have dropped at least 10 passes, including both 4th Q turnovers. In fairness this QB isn't exactly accurate and a lot of the passes were off target and the receivers would have had to make tough catches, but at some point you have to make a play.

Yep. Illinois controls the entire 2nd half, cant do jack shit and now Indiana is driving to win the game in the last minute. Stevie Wonder saw this one coming.

Edit: Yep, Indiana scores with 24 seconds left and LOL Illinois doesn't use any of their 3 timeouts to give themselves a chance, despite it being obvious Indiana had plenty of time and was going to score.

Colorado has 260 yards to 60 and is somehow losing at halftime. This is unreal how this season is starting out.

I had Illinois also. Should have won by 17.

Had Purdue the night before. Both lost in the final minute/seconds. It’s good to get spanked like this the first week. Makes me quit betting games because they’re the only thing on.
