Feel like a major sucker taking Texas so far

I was all over Arkansas as a home dog. My three game parlay for the 7pm slot was Ark +6, Miss St +1, App St +7.5. Probably need the Mountaineers to score another TD, it's getting hairy.

Edit: right on cue! App State back in front

3-1 week for the second straight week. The sucker was flipping Iowa to ISU when I had been feeling Iowa all week. I’ll take 75% weeks all year. I’d keep an eye out for UK as an Over team here early in the year. Their O has legit weapons and D does not and might be something the public is behind on. D wasn’t good last year either which is new for the Stoops era

Trust your gut!

I don't know what the linemakers were doing on that one. 88% of the money ended up on Iowa... but objectively looking at the teams, how could someone not take Iowa +4.5? Iowa State was the most transparently overrated team I have ever seen.

Better line would've probably been Iowa -3 and that would've at least made people stop and think for a second.

Went 7/9 on the day. Lost the last 2 bets I had, Texas -7 and USC -17.

Not sure what to think of the board today. Taking SD Moneyline and the Pitt/Buf Over, but not really confident on anything else outside of that.

Anybody feeling like taking Colorado +17 against A&M? The A&M QB threw 3 INTs last week and it’s supposed to be 90 degrees at Mile High. I don’t love Colorado but I could see the heat and the altitude affecting this game.

Used this last week as well as Arkansas/Texas Over and Iowa +4.5 to hit my three leg parlay.

The two I'm locking into this week are Bama to cover -14.5 @ Florida and Cincy to cover -3.5 @ IU. I am pretty damn comfortable with both of those.

Draftkings has had good parlay promos. I've hit two weeks in a row them. Cinci at 3.5 seems like a lock. I also like MSST over Memphis +3.5

Man I don’t know about PSU. I know they’re at home but Clifford hasn’t shown me much this year to believe he can gut out a 7 point win against Auburn. I could easily see a 28-24 type game there.

I parlayed Bama -14 and OSU -24.5 - which means one of the two won't cover. I haven't gotten anything right yet this year, good thing I am extremely low stakes.

That game is a tough one for me because of Auburn. They’ve got multiple transfers on D, Mason we haven’t seen as a DC with real talent in a while. Offense sounds like want to just go power run more nfl style. If Harsin possibly has them kind of rowing in the right direction they could be better than people think. But full of question marks

UF would have to have Jones, or Richardson have a dual threat, break Saban’s D type performance like we saw years back to keep it close. Think Saban has figured that out at this point though

I added ND -7 to my Bama -14.5 and Cincy -3.5. I'm only worried about one of those three and I'm sure you can guess which one...haha.

But getting +600 odds with 2/3 a virtual lock IMO, that's good money. Hoping the Irish come out nasty and bounce back, plus I think Brohm and his staff are going to have some headaches preparing for our new two QB attack.

Since I'm in Indiana this weekend, I'll be tempted to try out the new gambling stuff. Too bad I'm not at all confident in anything

Took o/41.5 for tonight Giants @ Washington - so it should be a 10-3 win for one team or the other.

I took the Caesars super boost on WFT to win outright... and boy did I get lucky. They had no business winning that game.

No, they didn't. But I was really impressed with Tyler Heinicke. I think he proved he has a place in this league. Could see him being a QB2 journeyman for a long while.

That offsides call on that first missed FG had a huge impact on a lot of bets placed in that game. Glad you came out on top.

Solid win, RDU. They shattered the over last night.

LOL -glad i teased it up to 41.5 from the 40.5 line. Looking to turn my CFB numbers around this weekend. I am due to get about a dozen in a row correct.

All favorites to cover in order of my conviction. (bet the opposite and win big)
Bama
Cincy
OSU
Iowa
ND
Coastal Carolina
VT

Alabama lost my parley dang

Same, man. And that was the one I was most confident in! lol

When ND wrapped up my second leg, and I saw it was 21-3 Bama, I thought it was time to celebrate but the Gators had other ideas.

MSU/Miami was like free money. Not a huge gambler but that was too easy to pass up.

Played 12 games and went 8-4 ATS hit on two of three parlays with ASU/AZ/UCLA losing and Miss/UT/IA State winning. UVa killed me on the 3rd and straight up but I felt good for a while. lol If I skip UVa yesterday, I'm going to Cabo this weekend on Vegas.

Maybe I'm a sucker, but I think the line is gonna move in ND's direction so I grabbed +6.5 and the ML.
