CFB Underway - Week1

Question

The fantasy football group chats are a buzzing, the old handicapping notebooks are being taken from the shelves, blow off the dust, crank up the jams it's almost football season.

The college campuses are a buzzing as fall semester commences and soon Saturday Mornings will be filled with traffic for the tailgate and the Nights will be for the gridiron. (P.S. Death Valley, Tiger Stadium now selling alcohol at games, should be interesting)

As summer comes to an end, it does not quite feel like fall weather, still so humid and muggy that I feel the need to take 3 showers a day. But where there is football there is hope. One day late September, I will awaken from a drunken stooper and walk out to the morning paper and feel the cool air, remembering as a kid what it felt like when we'd rush outside to play tackle in the neighborhood. By then football season will be in full swing, and the basketball horizon on the way. Until then I'll play reruns of Alabama's demoralizing defeat in last year's national championship to appease my demons. I long for cooler days ahead, I long for the first coin toss and the opening kick-off. I wish for prosperity and provision for all fellow cappers and football enthusiasts. Last year I experienced the worst betting season in my brief time as a capper, letting the gambler get the best of me, refusing to know when to hold them and fold them.

I come into 2019 rested and rejuvenated, thankful for a load of support from friends and family, and more thankful now than ever for football, the perfect game. Where much like life, the game teaches us of the value of teamwork, sportsmanship, competitiveness, hard work, sacrifice, and dedication. That no one play defines us (Unless you are Georgia Defense 2017 and let the Alabama WR go right past you for the winning TD). So for the love of the game, I'm back again this year! Good Luck to everyone on this forum and Geaux Tigers!

Three Picks here that have my attention and my curiosity:

Central Michigan - 7.5

Purdue - 9

Buffalo Under 65.5

Keeping an eye on them for now, Buffalo under has dropped a bit from 67, Purdue is hovering around the - 10 range and CM has moved up a point and a half from - 6

One I have locked in on is:

Army - 23.5 ($100)

Going to the LSU opener. I dont bet against LSU a lot, but I always bet GSU. I doubt they cover the 28. Geaux Tigers!

I will be in attendance as well, fellow Tiger fan. I am not so sure about the proposition of betting with GSU however. I do think -28 is a lofty number, but this is a heavy-option oriented offense, that the Tigers Defense has had several weeks to prepare for. I'm not sure about their quarterback situation as well, though from last I heard he will most likely play.

Still, I think Chaisson will relish the opportunity to be on the field again, and the defense will be up to the task of stopping a one-dimensional offense. It boils down to how much will the Tigers produce on offense, and when will they call off the dogs. I can easily see a 42-10 type ball game. I've reclined myself to take it easy with the Tigers this year for the most part, so I won't make a wager this early in the year lol, but my money would be with them. Just my thoughts, well wishes brother, may this be the year!
