You want to win money, take UCF. That's all I can say.


I admire the confidence in your pick. 

Here's the write up I was referencing. The capper is 22-12-1 ATS. That's about 65%.

The Civil Conflict is one of college football's greatest long-standing rivalries. I remember the first game of the heated series between UConn and UCF like it was yesterday. (Probably because it almost was yesterday. The Huskies and Knights have played only the last three years, but UConn coach Bob Diaco declared it a rivalry -- without UCF's knowledge -- and called it "the Civil Conflict.")

UConn has owned this rivalry -- OK, so the Huskies own only a 2-1 lead, but play along with me. This is a huge game -- OK, it will have absolutely no impact on who wins the American Athletic Conference. Still, someone has to win, and that will be the Huskies. In UConn's loss at USF last week, Shirreffs threw for a season-best 306 yards and will take advantage of a UCF defense that allowed a last-second touchdown pass in UCF's loss to Temple last week.

Trying to shake off that 26-25 loss to Temple, UCF will be without starting OL Tyler Hudanick (injury) and WR Tristan Payton (suspension). With a trip to nationally ranked Houston on tap next week, the Knights will likely sleepwalk in rainy, dreary East Hartford. When they wake up, UConn will be back to .500 with another Civil Conflict win.

Temple was a great pick and i wish i got around to it. Im sure all that are picking USF will take oregon too lol


It was such a great play, that you....didn't even play it.

No one feels stupid for making a play and not hitting it. That happens all the time to every bettor.

He made the game his bet of the year. More power to him. I posted a play that will hit and will watch Cincy tomorrow to see what they can do next week against Temple, using the time I spent watching this game to win money next week. Not really a feather out of my cap man.

If this is the only game you are playing all year...great job.

Otherwise as the late Bear Bryant use to tell his players.  "If this is the only game you are going to win...then jump up and down...celebrate...act like a fool.  If not...get your behind on the sideline and plan to win the next one."

Wow. So much wrong with this write-up.

Start with the Civil Conflict: As I noted in my thread, last year's game was a total mismatch. Everyone was injured on UCF and UConn came in like UCF could compete. They went out of their way to humiliate that team, many of whom return this year.

Now they get their comeuppance on UConn's turf. Perfect revenge scenario in the right place/right time.

So erase last year's win and you get 1-1 Diaco vs. UCF.

And Scott Frost, when you see what he's done with UCF in such a short amount of time, is far superior to Diaco, who admittedly, has depreciating assets on his side.

Shirreffs stats last week were bolstered in garbage time when USF crushed them. That 306 is meaningless in that regard.

Finally Tristan Payton didn't even play in the Temple game and has 6 receptions on the year. And that's supposed to be a loss.

And Houston: He's making the incorrect argument. To get to a bowl, you need to beat a soft team like UConn and take your lumps against Houston (who they can also beat Btw). He thinks UCF will sleepwalk in this game.

Whoever wrote that needs to improve his capping and argumentation.

And he's going to pay for it tomorrow with a pick and cap like that.

But here's the thing.... win or lose it was useless in the main. It contained no information to persuade anyone to tail. So it was indistinguishable from any random punter with no history flipping a coin. How was anyone looking for insight supposed to know this was based on good capping a solid record or anything else? So it was a good pick of course because it won. But it was a useless post

Naw....don't go there Raman even if I agree with you. GOY wins and small portion of forum going bonkers. Ok, what about the rest of the season unless you only bet a GOY. Otherwise, what the XXXX are you "Players" going to do the rest of the season. No GOY.

Stupid is as stupid does......bet against this wonder boys!!

I don't understand. How could Temple win outright when you didn't do a write up?

MoonStormSnow; You gottta change your avatar brother! I love Larry David too but you gotta get rid of him as your avatar. That's just asking for it. Change your avatar to someone else and you'll have a better chance of winning your large plays man. I mean, it's Larry fucing David. That's the worse guy I can think of to have as your avatar... for all the obvious reasons!

The PERSON wanting write-ups thinks he is SHERRIFF of NCAAF Covers....sics his buddy on people trying to get banned......little man kind of stuff. I would rather look for confident people like Morrissey than blowhards that demand respect and think they are the man. And yes, I am jaded because I have felt the same rath from the same person on one of my threads....but am over it...  and if that same person did it in person, first of all..they wouldn't....because it is disrespectful and secondly, use your imagination about the type of person I am/former professional athlete who is always around alphamen....big mouths often become smashed mouths in real life but hey, I am behind a keyboard so that means nothing on these forums. So, bottom line about my post......there needs to be less demanding on these forums, more trust and more listening rather than judging (including myself for that matter). If we can achieve this, then, we don't have to navel gaze and wonder why good cappers or the volume of ideas are disappearing.......it takes BALLZ to throw out your thoughts!

Everybody wondering where is the write up? Who cares. GOY titles to threads from posters who aren't widley acknowledged as knowledgable winning cappers should serve as a beacon to others to either fade or stay away. The fact this play hit means nothing.

Trust me on this. These Game of the Month, Year, Decade type plays loose way more often then they win. Not only here but other sites as well.. generally speaking

What does your post mean? We should embrace confusion when reality is in front of us? Bottom line is.....only tail if it makes sense and don't make sense of someone is ISN'T BEGGING YOU TO TAIL but is teasing you instead.....kind of like how woman work..they don't hit you over the head obviously that they see a good thing (in you) but tip toe around the communicaton of that ...but most men are too stupid to realize it and miss a great woman or relationship with another

I thought my post was pretty clear. I guess not. I'll try to break it down as simple as possible then...

* If a capper is generally not a knowledgable winning capper in the respective forum he/she is posting their Game of the Week, Month, Year, etc then these type of plays normally loose (more then they win).

* A beacon is an intentionally conspicuous device designed to attract attention to a specific location. Hence, the term beacon.

Combine the two: these types of GOY type plays from these types of posters (as described above) should serve as a beacon to either fade or stay away on the specific play that poster is on.

So Morrissey is unreliable?.....if the answer is yes..that is your conclusion and your reality to follow. I say he gained 3 pts tonight rather than 1.....for being correct.......throwing it out there when he knew it was contrarian to many.......and being silent for his reasons which reads as confident rather than reckless. His 1-0 nutz prediction should appeal to most peoples logic but it won't for people like you Rio who talk of beacons.....yadda yadda.....stuff that makes me hungry for breakfast more than anything
