The NFL has been terrible to bet this season. Absolutely brutal. I’m sick of losing money lol.

I don’t touch NFL. There is way too much parody and anyone can win on any given Sunday. Road teams seem to be on a roll this year. I could’ve live bet Seattle +9.5 when they were down 20-6 but I didn’t and I’m kicking myself still
 
Awful week.....guess it was bound to happen.

1-4 last week and it was looking like 0-5 for a while. LSU snuck out the win.

Amazing 27-5 on season goes to 28-9. Which is still good, but last week sucked. My confidence is a little shaky, but hoping for a rebound. I like to place bets early in week before to much fluctuation...OSU line has already moved 3 points, for example to OSU -28.

I like:

Michigan +9 vs PSU.....Just think this will be a tight nip and tuck game. From what I've seen, PSU is substantially better, but I think Michigan's defense will be a real test, and all it takes is for a few big plays from Michigans offense for this game to be a 1 score game in 4th quarter.

App St -14 vs La Monroe - App State sneaks into top 25 and have been one of most explosive offenses in country. I don't believe La Monroe will be able to keep up on the road against a very good App State team.

SMU - 7.5 vs Temple - SMU ranked #19 and take on aTemple team that's bee leaking of late. SMU also high powered offensively. Again, I like the high scoring team at home taking on a team that's struggling to put points up on board.

Illinois +31 vs Wisky - Interesting spot for Wisky with tOSU 2 weeks away. I just get the feeling Wisky gets game comfortable relatively quick, and then coasts to victory while protecting players (from injury and targeting which has impacted them). Like Illinois against Michigan, I anticipate the final score is closer than the game on the field. I think Illinois covers.

UAB -15 vs Old Dominion - Game at UAB and UAB has 1 loss on year. Old Dominion has not been good, and have multiple league losses with little to play for. I think UAB stays in good shape for their conference championship and pulls away in second half.
 
Oh my god I got fucking wrecked last week...... just absolutely brutal.

I somehow bet on 5 road favorites and 4 of them lost outright. They all generally weren't close either. :chuckle:

With that said, I don't love this college slate and clearly didn't learn a lesson from last week (3 more road favorites) but I did like:

OSU -28 @ Northwestern - NW offense stinks. OSU would have to play really, really sloppy to not win going away. It is a lot to lay but Buckeyes have 5 straight covers and they get a courtesy bet against a miserable offense. My only stay away would be weather.....if it were cold and rainy.

LSU -19 @ Miss St. - MSU is a mess. Coming off a loss to UT. LSU offense is humming along and their defense should absolutely smother a bad MSU offense. I think LSU is too good for this to be a trap game.

Boise -6.5 @ BYU - BYU is kind of a mess with injuries. Assuming Bachmeier is available, I like Boise a lot here. They have been a really solid team and their only non cover was a tough game against Marshall. Think they win comfortably but it is pending Bachmeier's status.

ASU +14 @ Utah - Like Utah a lot but this is a really important game for both teams. Think the Utes win but ASU has played a lot of close games and I think this is similar. Something like 28-17, 31-20, etc.

Michigan +9 @ PSU - loser leaves town game for Michigan. They let off the gas against Illinois and are probably in the midst of another tough practice week. If they have any pride left, they are really going to come out swinging. They have offensive talent and I just can't believe it won't eventually amount to something. Not sure they win but it seems like too many points.

If you would like to win money, please don't bet the above.

Ohio St -7 second quarter. They have outscored the opponent by 114 in 6 games this year during their second quarter. Northwestern has been out scored by 15 in their 5 games this year during Q2.

If your book allows it, take OSU in the 2Q

4-0 on the day.

Need Michigan to have a solid second half
To get it to 5-0 (not very hopeful though).

I parlayed my picks as well, so if they can mount a comeback, today will be very profitable.

Glad I rebounded after last week. 32-9 on year. Would love to get it to 33-9.

5-0. Damn, that’s wild. Good shit
 
That’s a 5-0 week....33-9 on year. Not too shabby.

You put $60 in my pocket today. Should have been a lot more but I only took a 3 game parlay off of your choices instead of all 5.

Thanks man!
