So thanks to the NFL I'm having a very nice year.

Two things this week. 18.5 is way too much for UConn.

Maryland -3.5 for WVU in Baltimore is insane. WVU flat out stinks.
 
Gotta think the same suckers who took Bosie week 1, Florida week 2 and BC week 3 will be running to the window to take Pitt -4 this week.

I will be on Duke and Colo state for now. Gotta think there is a letdown in T town after last weeks win.
 
Colorado State is putrid. It's a brave man who backs them. If Cal Poly could make a kick...
 
Fresno State -3 might be too good to be true. Wisconsin is an interesting case. Teams that lose like that... 24.5 is a ton for Purdue.
 
Only took a quick glance at the lines, but Maryland -3.5 definitely jumped out at me too.

I will probably go anti-USC again. Was foolish for taking BC last week, they stink. Utah St is a legit team with a legit QB in Keeton. I'll take them getting a TD against Kiffin.

Where did you see the MD line? The site I looked at has it sitting at -5.5. It's not a book, but keeps track of the line's movements so maybe it is off.

Yeah I see 4.5 now. I may have 'misremembered' from earlier. As it goes up... It turns into Boise/BC/Florida
 
I love UConn at a number higher than 17. Michigan is not that good.

Like both Fresno and Purdue. Purdue is awful but it is a tough sport for the Badgers.

Trust me a lot of donkeys are saying Bosie +3 is to good to be true, just as they did in Washington..............
 
Fresno -3
Maryland up to -6 but still like
USC -6
Tennessee +17.5
Michigan State +7
Kansas State +4
Arizona State +7.5
 
Nothing really jumps out at me this week ... but I'm intrigued by Kent +19 @ PSU and Army +3.5 hosting Wake ... any opinions?
 
Mich state +7
Ucla -41
Kent state +21
Texas -4 (this it for me with this team)
 
If army is over a fg it's interesting. Wake is trash.
 
.-.
Now down to Wake -2.5.

Liking Army more and more with that movement.

Only thing I worry about is a let down after they played so well vs Stanford last week.

Army had some players hurt against Stanford, including their RB. I could see a big let down for them as well.

Also wake runs the option now so they have practiced against all year and should be ready for army.
 
God no like Army less. You already missed the number. Worst thing you can do is take that bad number. If it doesn't get back to 3 avoid like plague.
 
Can't take the bad number on Army now.
I've learned my lesson betting on Duke - passing.
Wish I got Syracuse early in week

UNC/GT Over 59
UConn +20 - 2 weeks in a row I disagree w/ line movement on UConn game
Purdue +23 - hate missing the 24 though
Marshall +10
Maryland -5.5 very well knowing this is the trap of the week
Minnesota -3.5
Troy +14
Baylor over 76.5
SMU +28.5
ND/Mich St under 42.5
Ark St -4.5
Colorado St +39 - 2 people I value their opinion talked me into this
Mid Tenn -4 maybe another trap

Going to be on WKU later but my guy doesn't have a line yet.
 
Houston -3
Whoever is playing kiffin +7
Kstate +6.5
Nmsu +43
Byu -7
Nebraska -21

I'm with you on whoever is playing Kiffin. The line moved down to 6.5, but 69% of the bets are on USC. The smart bettors are riding Utah St. I'm inclined to agree.

Army was so bad I'm making rookie mistake of tacking on ASU +7.
 
Army was kicking FGs all game and it finally caught up to them in the 4th quarter when Wake finally got going...just a awful performance.

Maryland and Utah St were good winners though. Not enough to put me in the black for the day, unfortunately. Good thing we have another chance with the NFL tomorrow.
 
8-6 because of the amateur hour play on Arizona St. Annoying.

Pitt proves to be the big week 4 sucker bet that loses.
