Another small winner on Saturday. 2-4 in small bets, 5-3-1 in mediums and 1-1 for bigs for the games; with 1-1 on posted mediums and 1-0 on posted bigs at the half. Now at 11-2 on big plays on Saturdays this fall...
I posted this Monday but will re-post in case others didn't see and are trying to update their power ratings in the proper manner.
Very very frustrating loss in the Baylor game. Anyone who watched it knows the Bears were the right side. Up 10-0 at the end of one, with the ball and positioning for a field goal that should have put them up 13-0.
To get outgained by only 90 yards and be relatively competitive throughout, only to see that final score, is terribly frustrating. You cannot handicap turnovers, and to lose that battle 5-1 (and get an INT taken away due to a STUPID late hit on the QB) is suicidal when playing someone like Texas. Three touchdowns in 1:44 (104 seconds) was the ultimate nail.
Morriss thought the same thing I did: he wanted to have a chance to win on the field and I think they really had a shot. Yes, Texas was dominant up front and they would win 19 times out of 20 when these teams play. But if THEY were the ones with four more turnovers, who knows. As it played out, I think Texas would only cover 1 time out of 20 - the game that played out the way it did Saturday.
To the next couple of nights.....
You can likely find all you want to know about these games from others, so I'll give you a brief synapsis.
I lean to the chalk tonight in Mount Pleasant. They are playing with a division lead and don't want to spit it up against a BG team that has struggled offensively pretty much all year. If Ball could only muster six points against CMU, don't see BG doing much better than that. It's a short week but CMU is 7-0 against the number and I made it a little higher. If I see any 6's pop up, I'll be there for a small bet.
Virginia and UNC are two teams I'd stay far, far away from. Will watch the first half to see if something develops but hard to tell who will be motivated. Talent-wise, UNC has potential to hang. But psyche-wise, would have nothing to do with outgoing Bunting and UNC.
New Mexico is pretty bad but Rocky Long has always done well with that 3-3-5 defense and Utah's offense has been anything but a model of consistency. Can't lay meaningful points on the road with the Utes at this point.
As far as the Friday night game goes, tough to say. Have heard where this game is basically UConn's season, and with WV prepping for Louisville, expect them to keep everyone healthy in whatever means possible. But they punted exactly ONE time last week in win over the Cuse... and don't see UConn as being any better as Cuse at this point. All depends on which WV shows up; not betting either side in this one.
Good luck with these weeknight games, but you can all have them this week. Not interested....
