Some days it's just unbelievable.
Had LSU and Wiscy just now. Both were dogs, both had 2 score halftime leads (including the spread). They also each knocked the opponents starting QB out. And they both lost. So gross. And they each lost by 2 scores! Like, what? How does that happen in 2 games out of 2 plays?
Nussmeier with three 2nd half picks and a fumble. 3 turnovers on 3 straight possessions. Locke for the Badgers throws the most baffling pick6 you will ever see, no idea what he was looking at. In a 3 point game at home vs the number 3 team. After the WRs had at 4 drops in the first half that would have all been 1st down catches.
I must not be living right because I can't catch a break in college all year other than that big total play last night. I thought that was a sign it was turning around but obviously no, fk this i need to stick to NFL.
It's getting to the point I'm thinking of being a reverse tout, have people pay for my college picks so they can fade them. You'll make a killing. Herbsteit's dog could pick better than me in college.
I don't expect anyone to get the violins out just let me rant a bit before I go to bed.
These fkin idiot kids are killing me with all the drops, stupid flags (why are you touching a WR on the sideline at all when it's 4th and long or 4th and goal?! The refs can't wait to throw it you have to lay off) and head scratching turnovers.
You know how Josh Allen kept throwing all those crazy end zone picks or fumbling at the goal line the last couple years? I feel like every college team I bet on is like watching that happen every Saturday. I can't believe they're gonna be paying these dipsticks now. They don't deserve it. But certainly I'm the bigger fool for putting my hard earned on these muppets.
One thing I've been thinking about is I remember reading the book that the movie Casino is based on and there's a part where Lefty Rosenthal the legendary handicapper (Ace Rothstein/Deniro in the film) has another gangster asking him about all the college football games. Lefty keeps saying he has 'no opinion' over and over when asked about all the different matchups and the guy asking starts getting really mad, and finally Lefty tells him there's only 2 good plays on the whole Saturday slate. And he was betting tens of dimes per play back in the 70s. If Lefty could only figure out 2 good plays I probably would be lucky to get one (I usually play anywhere from 3 to 6 games on Saturday)
And I'll tell you, a big regret I have is I never practiced kicking field goals as a kid. Look how bad these college kickers are and they still get a free ride to these schools. Ohio State has the number one ranked soccer team and the shoe holds more fans than a lot of pro stadiums and they can't find a kid to hit a 30 yard FG? Meanwhile Nebraska kid came in and despite being 1 for his last 5, nails a 57 yarder.
And if you're actually a good kicker, you will have a super easy life. You can get a couple mill a year in the NFL and hardly have to get up off your arse because coaches only want to go for it on 4th down now.
It's feeling like every loss is some weird bad beat but obviously they can't all be. I guess I need to stick to the pros, not that it's an easy game there either but I definitely have much better results and don't see as much bonehead BS.
