[STEED]

Good luck bro.

 

[halfpoint]

After looking more into it I'm going with this as my big bet tease of the week:

Illinois +21.5
Ole Miss +29.5
New Mex St +10.5
Alabama +14
Minnesota +24.5

I think she looks really good

1) Illinois is coming off a bye week. I think it'll be an under 14 pt game

2) Ole Miss playing very good ball. Should be in this one late. Don't see Gators winning by more than 21 here.

3) New Mexico all banged up. New Mex St got themselves an offense. Outright win IMO

4) Bama playing awesome and I don't think Georgia capable of blowing them out. One score game

5) Minny surprisingly playing well. I think they can hang within 2 scores

 

[halfpoint]

What do y'all think of Ole Miss getting 22 points.

They look like a solid team. Can they keep this one close at the Swamp?

STRAIGHT BET LEANS - PLEASE GIVE OPINIONS AND THOUGHTS. I want to narrow them down to 5-6

STRONG LEANS

Minny +17.5 - No real opinion. At 4-0, I guess it is all about whether or not you think they are for real (and for real, I mean a mediocre Big 10 team as opposed to a last place team).

Maryland +11.5 - I like this, they get up for these games.

Ole Miss +23 - No real opinion here - they could conceivably keep up with them though.

W. Kentucky +21 - I like this. There is a very good article in carolinablue's thread about this game. Kentucky has some injuries and it is a sandwich spot for them. UK also has special teams problems and probably doesn't have the offensive firepower to take WKU to the woodshed.

Navy +16 - I'm concerned that they won't be able to stop Wake. Wake is disciplined enough on defense that they should contain the option.

LEANS

Indiana +8.5 - no opinion

Illinois +13.5 - I agree, you can probably get +14/14.5 though.

Marshall +15.5 - lean WV here

Northwestern +7.5 - lean Iowa

Colorado +6 - Like this one - it helps that the game is in Jacksonville as well. FSU has to prove they can score.

TCU +17.5 - Will TCU score enough? We'll see

Troy +17 - Plenty of Ok. St love around here. Troy is good enough to stick around, but its a terrible spot for them.

BOL this week halfpoint. How do you normally fare on these big teasers?

BOL this week halfpoint. How do you normally fare on these big teasers?

I normally lose 1 in every one. Very frustrating. Last week had a 12 teamer and after going 11-0 lost the last one by 1 point.

I'm hoping to get lucky and hit one of these bigger ones 10-15 teamers. I need to win one of these 5-8 teamers in the mean time. lol

Just not going well this year

 

[halfpoint]

Have I been inhaling too many fumes or can Minny win outright this week.

 

[nawlins51]

GL buddy.I am done with these for a while.

 

[RetroVK]

Not familiar with teaser strategies .. ( which i guess i have no excuse for ) but was wondering if it is proper to do a teaser the opposite way on big line moves ??

for instance with this teaser ...

Marshall +23.5
Indiana +16
Mississippi +30.5
TCU +24.5
Troy +23.5
South Florida -2.5


the line has moved significantly downward in the wvu/marshall game

Assume these are seven point teasers based on the lines you got.

is a teaser that now looks like this a good bet from a math standpoint ??

wvu -6.5
Indiana +16
Mississippi +30.5
TCU +24.5
Troy +23.5
South Florida -2.5

 

[halfpoint]

I don't trust WVU laying anything.

Minny line up to 18.5

I think Minny has the better QB. I think they'll make this a game.

The same with Illinois. Lots of talent on Illini. They haven't showed it yet. I think they do this weekend.

 

[halfpoint]

Minny line up to 19.5
Illinois up to 15.5
TCU up to 18.5

I think those are 3 solid teams getting over 2 TD;s each. I'm not sure what the hell I'm missing but all 3 of those look real good

 

[halfpoint]

I think my gambling career is done.

How can I continuously lose multiple team teasers on the last fucking game by 1/2 pts?

Had Green Bay last week +10.5 to finish off a big teaser.

I truly am cursed. You wouldn't believe 1% of the shit that happens to me.

 

[halfpoint]

Now what'll happen tomorrow in the NFL I'll write down my 5-6 team tease and it'll win easily but I won't be able to play it.

Happens EVERY fucking time
