Week 1 gambling

[J187Money]

Wisky still has Gordon and White in the backfield and a great defense. I doubt Umass will score and Wisky will a lot. Too many for me to be involved in but if I was I wouldn't take UMass.

This is a Umass program which lost 63-0 to Northern Illinios last year.

I think I'm with you. This is one of those where the garbage touchdown against the 3rd stringers might make all of the difference. I fully expect it to be 42-0 or something like that by early 3Q.

Rice +26 anyone? They do return a ton of starters from last years team that won their last 5 games including a bowl. A&M's defense isn't great, Rice should be able to score enough to cover that number.

ULL +10.5 looks interesting as well. I know Bilema is 1000x better than the disaster they had at HC last year, but should they really be giving this many? ULL had Florida beat in the swamp and pretty much returns their whole offense.

Don't like Rice because you've got a QB trying to make a statement in the first half and Manziel coming in to play till the end in the second half.

 

[uconnbaseball]

I doubt Manziel would play much if A&M opens up a 3 touchdown lead. Rice runs the ball very well and has moved it on the ground vs. Texas and UCLA the past few years; they should easily score 20-30 points vs. A&M. I like Rice +26 a lot.

Manziel has three halves to prepare for Alabama. You think they aren't going to play him with a lead. They aren't aware of the impact of his stats on the Heisman.

You may be right that Rice is a live dog who can compete, but Manziel is going to play and they aren't going to show mercy.

 

[whaler11]

Rice is +14 in first half. That I can get behind.

I don't like looking gift horses in the mouth, but something is wrong with the Boise spread. It seems like we are missing something, because it is too obvious. Boise +3

I like Cincinnati -11. Purdue sucks.

BYU -1 is a good bet too. Good team this year.

ULL + 10.5

Nevada +20.5 - I think Ault is one of the most innovative coaches of the last 20 years, but his play calling was getting a little stale by last season. This may be one of those situations where a team steps up after replacing a legend.

Kentucky -5

 

[whaler11]

I think the deal with Boise is revenge + night game + moving back into renovated stadium. Boise is still good but thinner than in past. Can't bet against Boise but that is a tough spot.

 

[whaler11]

At the offshores who added it UConn is -17.

 

[huskysupporter]

I really like Washington.

[Jimdish255]

why are these "obvious"? not mad I'm just curious as to why you think these are obvious. I also thought about UNC +11 at SCAR on Thursday but I haven't placed anything yet

I was thinking SC over NC by a lot. They won't let up. I might think twice if it goes over 14 though.

Washington is returning 18 starters from a team who was ranked at times last year and is at home. Bosie is bring back 9. If anything the number is short. I think you are simply looking at the team names when saying that about the spread.

Plus Washington it tough at home.

So UConn +17...what do you think? I have a good feeling about this game. UConn has a sense of desperation and Weist has brought some excitement in to the offense. I think they cover.

Assuming you mean UConn -17

 

[Jerry1714]

I do not have a feeling on the game but UConn should be embarrassed and pissed they are less than a 20 point fav over an FCS school

 

[whaler11]

I think I'm just taking UNC +13.5 and USU +2.5 tonight. Might add Mississippi if that comes down to 3.

Good luck fellow degenerates.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Won't take the Rainbow Warriors tonight, but there is a lot of money to be made early this year betting against Lane Kiffin. People see the talent, and they keep betting USC despite its coach. The mullets will keep the spreads up, and Kiffin will deliver another 3-10 campaign ATS.

Hawaii got that backdoor cover and I managed to squeeze a 2-2 out of the night because they offered Towson at 17 and I took Mississippi at 3.5.

This Friday card is boring but I took the SMU over at 62. Bad number and first drive dissolved. So good job by me.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Hawaii and SMU so far. Not feeling good about Gilbert. Chickened out on Rutgers and didn't take the points.

SMU got a bad whistle. I needed miracle on the over, but in reality game should have been at 80+.

My bookie had so much Texas Tech action he asked if I'd take SMU.

 

[whaler11]

When you see Wisconsin -44.5 with a 53 over...

UMass has problems on defense but their offense is clearly going to improve. They will score enough to push it over.

 

[Drew]

Sir u are going to get eaten alive. You are taking what i call the obvious picks but we will see how u do.

Went undefeated for the weekend. Not a bad start to the season.

WTF? I saw 17-0 halftime and thought I was sitting pretty ...

Congrats. My shoe don't taste so good

 

[whaler11]

Drew was def the man. I squeezed out a 8-7 yesterday and 11-9 for the weekend to date.

How about that Boise game. The AAC had a miserable week, not much better for MWC.

Anyone else kind of like Ohio +21 today?
