College Football Week 12

Early Leans with discussion:

Fresno State +31 (Boise barely covered against a bad Idaho team....and I think Fresno is a much much better team than Idaho. I see Fresno keeping it fairly close most of the game...2-3 TD's.)

Wisconsin -4.5 (Not sure I understand this line. I see Mich is at home...but still. The #5 team in the country to an unranked Michigan squad are you kidding me? Wisconsin is playing lights out....wins over OSU and Iowa. Some interesting trends for this game: Michigan is 5-21 ATS in their last 26 conference games. Wisc is 6-1-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings with Michigan. I lean HEAVY Wisc here)

Arky -3 (Bama seemed to have zero trouble in handling Miss. St defense and Arky seems to be playing well and handling their business. However their is one trend that is bugging me about this game and why i won't take it large....Home team is 8-0 ATS in their last 8 meetings. That would favor Miss. St. at home)

Dare I take Texas YET again for the 4th straight week ATS? Cashed all previous 3 games ATS. 21 seems like an awful lot to win by....and I don't think we're playing as well as we were when we played Rice and Wyoming. That being said I like FAU with the points for a small play.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

I like Tennessee -9 at Vandy. It has been bet down from 10 and I hope it goes lower. I know it's a rivalry game but Vandy is dreadful and has lost and not covered 5 straight. Tennessee is getting their groove after going through a murderous stretch of games. They also need to win both of their games to get to 6-6. Vandy's QB has been BAD lately and is banged up to boot.

Pound FAU until Texas proves it can cover.

Miami (OH) at Akron tonight - I like UNDER 47.5

I just don't think anyone is going to score points in this game, even though neither defense is great.

General - thoughts on CBB tonight? I really like both Illinois and Pitt to cruise in the games at MSG tonight. Pitt opened at -4 and Illinois opened at a PK and quickly moved to -6 and -2 respectively.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

i'd rather just go with your picks. im on an awful run in college hoops although the other sports have helped balance me out. after starting out 8-0 or so in college hoops, im now on an 0-14 streak over the last 3 days.

Clemson -13.5 at Wake Forest

I like this one as well. Wake Forest is playing terrible football and Clemson is 5-5 trying to get bowl eligible. Won on NCSU against Wake thanks to you guys on here so I'm riding the anti-WF wagon again.

Also looking at Penn St -10 at Indiana

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

Sorry to hear about the run general. You'll turn it around man. I am 2-0 so far in CBB but those were small plays. These are my first two big plays of the year. I like what Texas is doing, but they are going to face a well-coached BIG team with a good PG. I can see Texas losing by 10-12. Maryland has to be 6 point dogs based on name recognition only. Pitt is light years ahead of them. I can see this one getting ugly. I think Pitt beats Illinois too, in what will likely be a 2 or 3 point spread. Could come down to making FTs, which is always a crap shoot.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

College Hoops:

I do not know much about maryland. they have looked good early. 6-7 seemd like a lot to me in a game that looks like it could be close. i lost on pitt and minn earlyu this year but yoiu are probably correct. pitt is capable of having a great team this year.. i like eastern carolina getting 13.5 against st. johns. it opened at 17. eastern caolina is capable of winning. i also like richmond -5.5.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

I don't know much about college bball...so I typically lay off.

NBA though...I follow a buddy on another forum who is money with his NBA system. He is 9-2 on his hammer play's for the season...including two hammer plays last night with Dallas +4.5 and Heat -8. I can start posting his hammer plays for you guys if you want to start following. His hammer play for tonight is Denver +2.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

Have you just picked him up this year or does he have a good track record? I have NO REASON to start betting hoops, but if you've got a guy with good picks.....

In reply to:

Just started following his posts this year. I CAN vouch for his record this year which is 60-38-2 in the NBA(9-2 on HAMMER plays that he designates) He posts his picks if any fit his system daily. What I CAN'T vouch for is historical record in past years...no clue....but I have followed him since day 1 of 2010 NBA season and jumped on board with his picks after the first week...where he went like 9-2 or something crazy. He's done VERY well...and made me quite a bit of money.

Only thing that worries me is him going on a losing streak to bring that 60-38 record back down to earth a bit more. Roughly 60% is solid....but I doubt he keeps it up all season.

EDIT: Oh and again I can start posting his plays everyday on here if you guys want to start following his record from here on out.

Hammer play tonight: Denver +2
Regular play: Magic -10

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

NFL play - How can you not like Baltimore -11 at Carolina. Carolina is going to start a guy who was a stay-at-home dad as recently as LAST WEEK! They will be without their best RBs as well (maybe all top 3).

I don't want to tie up any of my money on the NFL before Sunday morning but if this starts going up further I'm going to lock it in before it hits 13.

Yes, please post those NBA picks...so far I'm down 5 units for the season as I try to learn the ropes. First time I've ever bet on NBA. Could use all the help I can get.

Re: College Football Week 12 [re: ChazUTX]

Yeah that game could've gone either way. I take all his picks so I evened out with Magic covering.

I too loved the Bears so I teased them and Air Force....which covered thankfully. So not a bad night for me.

Tonight's game....love the OVER and Fresno St +31. Will post my buddies NBA picks in a bit once he does.
