time to post my week 14 card so far - violins playing, women and children being placed in lifeboats

week 5 12-8

Week 10 13-19
week 11 19-27
week 12 22-9
week 13 11-18
Total 137-143-1

Obviously not doing well. My goal is to go out with a bang. Much like last year when I had a bet on every game a few weeks or more than just a few, I am going to at least try that this week. The unit is a little smaller than normal fwiw for obvious reasons (I am not bill gates). Also I made corresponding Bama/Auburn bets that I am not posting but will try and have a play for that game too.

Will definitely have a play in the Army/Navy game, and most of the Championship games and then the bowls. If it goes badly, I probably just play a few college football tournaments next year and don't bet anything. My ego doesn't want to have a losing year almost as much as my retirement doesn't.

Troy St - think it moves higher probably but App St really nothing to play for.

Fondy, is that you?

I see the bold and like them.....do you have a top 3 by chance?

 

[RetroVK]

Nebraska, Mississippi State, TCU and North Carolina. I am VERY confident UNC wins but covering is another story so at current lines they make a great teaser option in my opinion as well.

Always appreciate your opinions. It's been one of those years.....don't sweat it. I see you have Tulsa in bold. I'd say they are probably a TD better than the Pirates but I just don't see any motivation this week and the Pirates are still trying. Thoughts?

Well, I felt ECU turned a corner a few weeks ago and started playing much better football. And I am done trying to predict when Tulsa will quit either. They outgained Houston by 150 or so in defeat last outing, and beat ucf the outing before and had nothing to play for on either occasion. I suppose there is the UCF brand name motivation and then senior day motivation vs houston. I don't see why they quit in their final game when they haven't quit all year. And this is major class relief for these guys ... Tulsa, per Sagarin played a top 15 tough schedule so far and when you look at it, it was just brutal. Just the much better defense imo. ECU appears to be trying too and it is senior day but why should I think they are any less apt to quit out of nowhere as Tulsa is? Tulsa will be better just about everywhere, particularly along the line of scrimmage imo. I sort of like Ahlers and co. as a fan but I think they get beat up here. Who knows though.

Nice start. Thank you

Lmao “. Osu/mich sneaky under radar game..”
Gl this week sir

 

[s--k]

What do you see, know or hope for with Texas St?

Last time I backed Coastal I got crushed. Obviously just wrong time for me because surrounding the ULL game, CC has gone 4-1 ats. All as dogs yes but that includes beating Troy, 3 pt OT loss vs GaSo, 1 pt loss at ArkSt and 3 pt loss at ULM.

So, pretty competitive team and now Texas St is worse than all those by some margin.

There is this mental hurdle with laying a TD with them. And maybe that is where you are at, just playing the number

I took USA against Texas St, which TexSt barely won (missed USA FG at end). And the only other recent game they were close in was when a drained and tired ULM team came in on short week vs rested Bobcats.

It might appear in some ways these teams should be even and the upset or close game wouldn’t really surprise. But on the other hand I really don’t think they are equal and actually think offensively Chants are quite a bit better. That “close” AppSt game for Bobcats last week was a sham. Otherwise they don’t cover much.

 

[texsn95]

Crap, I'm on OSU/Mich O51 and it's down to 48.5, shit weather coming in apparently. Try to hedge out or just hold my nose?

 

[Br@ssknux]

Nice start, and you got some nice numbers. Best of luck Kyle. I'm so horrendous at totals that I should take a position on a bunch just to let the board fade them.

I haven't looked myself tonight but I believe the forecast is looking better.
