Brutal day yesterday- gut punch losses on Auburn -6.5, Arkansas State +11.5, and South Dakota state +14.5… Also pushed on JMU and ended up 5-9-1 on the day. Wallet and emotions could really use a ND blowout today ☘️

FSU is such a bag of dicks. That two hour delay put this game well past my bedtime so I didn't hedge in game when I probably could have had FSU +7 or +10 at a few points with some live boosts available. I had juiced SMU to -9.5 and -6.5 to finish off a couple of no sweat parlays (Memphis, LSU and ND to all cover). Had them at -2.5 on a couple of smaller ones.
How do you put up damn near double the yards of offense and only win by 3?
Good weekend but could have bankrolled the whole season if SMU didn't hate themselves so much.
Price and JSN are both in the +120 range for TDs tomorrow, I like both of those. There is a $5M longest TD pot on DK. Shaheed has to be a favorite along with JSN. Seattle defense makes it hard to pick a Patriot - Brown probably a favorite for that side of the ball, have to like Doubs too. Both teams were stingy giving up D/ST TDs. Maybe I go for the gold and pick ELI RARIDON +1100 - wouldn't have to share that $5M with very many people.

You had some great calls in week 1- keep up the good work. Will probably join you on Price ATD tomorrow and maybe even JSN ATD too (might as well parlay them together if you're gonna bet both).

Betting separately feels like a high probability +10% profit with a good chance at making 120% profit. Not sure I like the parlay in what could be a low scoring affair. Give me Price 100 yards rush+rec and a TD for one parlay (+600) and JSN 100 yards and a TD for another (+345). Pick your poison Pats. Price +770 to get 100+ on the ground.
50% boost on Price 100 yards rush/rec plus a TD looks kind of ridiculous to me at +900 as does 2TDs at +900. Patriots D is going to be solid so those probably deserve the gawdy lines they have.
Still don't know what to do for that long TD promo. For this match up it could easily be less than 10 yards for the "long" TD.

Think he just meant in addition to betting them separately...
If you're betting them both to score, may as well throw them in a 2-leg parlay for like 5 or 10 bucks
It's how I play my CFB Saturdays, I do two different $50 3-teamers and then combine all 6 into a whale for $15. If you hit one of the 3-teamers you've had a good weekend, if you hit both you're having a GREAT weekend

Exactly. If I'm making two individual ATDs bets for 1 unit each, I'll usually also throw them in a two-way ATD parlay for 1/10 or 1/5 of a unit.

My buddy lost out on over $1.5k and showed me the bet slip last night at our fantasy draft. He got WMU over +1000 live (can’t remember) right before they kicked the field goal to go up 9-7. He is rightfully pissed about the outcome.
Also, the easiest money of the weekend was ND -16.5 live right after they scored to open the half. They were already up 10 at that time. I have no idea what Draft Kings was doing, but I’ll take it.
Tell your buddy that the MAC headquarters are in Cleveland. File a suit against Michigan and the Big Ten refs there, I bet he could find a friendly OSU judge who’s sympathetic to his cause.
Everyone else in college football is suing someone, why not your buddy 😂
