I'll tell you who will win for 50% of the profit.

California -7
Arizona State -11
Michigan -12
Fresno State -7

Yeah.. first thing I did was go to a sports betting site and looked at the point spreads. I was thinking something along the lines of..

Fresno state dropped their last 3 games and are struggling on offense.. I'd prolly go with Tulsa in that game..

or

Jeff Brohm is out with a broken ankle and although their offense played well I'd go with Va Tech.

or

Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl will roll Bama. Bama and LSU are both overrated espically for the SEC.

If I was playing games straight up with no line, I would probably go with all favorites that are favored by the most points.

I will.. but anything that is 3 points are less is a toss up..

I don't know shit about Toledo or UTEP.. I was hoping maybe someone has seen them play and could offer some advice. Same with Boise St and Boston College.. Colorado St and Navy etc etc..

see my conundrum?

Boston College is $$$!

I dunno, I haven't seen Boise enough to know, but they do have the homefield.

USC is a lock. They are going to destroy Texas. Think Oklahoma.

How about listening to the advice of all college football bettors and line makers in America?

Southern Miss -17
California -7
Arizona State -11
Michigan -12
Fresno State -7
Virginia Tech -7.5
Auburn -10.5
Georgia -7.5
Penn State -7.5
USC -7

Attention Sports Fans... - Anhil8tor - 12-15-2005

I did flump.. those games are all circled. I lost it last year on the LSU/Iowa game b/c I had LSU. That spread was 3 points.

I now have 10 out of 27 games picked.

do you have any advice on the other 17 that will make or break me?

So, do you have to bet every game?

I think Navy will cover. I will be at that game next week. First year for it, should be fun.

yeah we have to circle every game and the tie breaker is the total points of the UT/USC game..


I will be attending the New Orleans Bowl in Lafayette this year.
