If I;m coming across as a know it all, I;m sorry. This week I have way to much time on my hands. But the point that I was trying to get across was if you have an account based in Connecticut, they just don;t put Connecticut sporting events on it. So even if you drove over the line it wouldn;t do any good. In Vegas you can be walking down Tropicana Bld. towards the MGM from the Unlv campus with basketball players for the game that night and place a bet on unlv. Maybe a little far fetched but true
Only since 2021, apparently.

I don't think you are a know it all, but I never intended to convey that one could bet on a Connecticut team within the state lines of Connecticut. On the other hand, there are definitely work arounds, if one were so inclined.

As we speak there isn;t a Uconn- Army line on Fanduel. Is it a case when I cross the state line that I'll be able to get it.
Yes, it won’t appear until you’re out of CT

Rhode Island has mobile betting through Sportsbook RI. MA is evidently not yet online, but it is coming.

I threw out "500 feet" to make sure the GPS would definitively record one's out of state location.



That was my assumption as well.
So I should set up a mobile account in another state to bet this game?

Thanks, just contacted Fanduel. This is how it works I can get Connecticut lines in NY and NJ. But while there I can;t bet teams in those states.
Ah right, I hadn’t considered that Army is in NY. My bad!

This is not correct.

I know Army is a difficult team to play. But Vegas still doesnt believe in us.
I think it will be up to our LBs to stay true to their assignment and not try to be a heroes.
And the in-game adjustments of our coaches.
Means we win by 20

I suppose that depends on how badly you want to bet it.

I just wanted to see if you knew something I didn't. Not the case. Now that I found the Utah State game winning ticket I thought I misplaced it's road trip time. I'm driving 44 to Lincoln and coming back the highway route by way of Tree House. It will be a good weekend.
For the record:
$100. total
$60. ATS
$40. moneyline

I wouldn't touch this game with a wooden nickel. Everything points to UConn being able to cover this number.

But until I see how UConn's staff has prepared the defenders to defend Army, I can't put any money on it. It's a tough team to prep for the first time you play them and if you prepped wrong, making in-game adjustments is real tough. I think UConn wins but if Army wins I think there's a better chance they win by 3 TD's than them winning by less than 11.

UConn hits hard. I'm counting on a 4thQ Army fade.

Yea this is weird…with a CT FanDuel/DraftKings account, could go over NY border and place a bet on them if they weren’t playing a NY team. You’d have to go to NJ or PA to get legal action

There's no thread yet for this weekend's games, but if you're not doing much, tune in W Mich v C Mich. Snowing like crazy, RBs and WRs are basically skating. Gotta love weeknight MACtion.

Mora mentioned that some of the staff have played versus Army. Hope he's not taking any advise from Spanos.

No, if you have a fanduel or draftking account that is based in Connecticut, when you log in they know exactly where you are. If you were to drive over the line they would not take your action. I'll take it a step further, I spend overnights at Mohegan on a monthly basis. If I try to log in on my laptop in my room to go on the sportsbook, they won't let me. They want me to go downstairs and place my bet. You can't bet any Connecticut sports pro, college. or mma in Connecticut. I have spoken to people at Mohegan who work for Fanduel and they would love to be able to get that action, especially on nights the Sun play
That's just plain old false. I work in jersey, live in CT, and place bets on CT games all the time at work.

OL Coach Sammis while @ Lafayette.
LB Coach Diabate @ MTSU
How did MTSU do? Would be amazing if our LB coach has already helped a sucessful gameplan against the triple option. But imo, Mora has to have a connection with SOMEONE in his circle who knows how to beat it.
