Trends and statistics have there place at times.... just not for the majority of the work.

Hope that helps

 Yes..........I make it a point to see as many teams play as possible (no matter how unappealing). It's like a HC watching tape of the upcoming team. You learn to anticipate.
Teams change over a season but I make notes, especially about the coaching during the game, & refer back to them come bowl season.

Boom - are these 7 plays your final plays or will you add more? Really like that Stanford over. I want to play all your plays but am unsure about the Clemson pick. Of course, I gotta wait until just about gameday until 5dimes let's me buy the half a point on GT, USF, and Clemson.

Hey Boom,

How high of a line would you take Wis at? My book has it at -8.5

Boom what's good buddy? The magical season continues. I like our boys to win and cover again this weekend, and will certainly be in attendance to enjoy the thrashing. Drop by the Esso beforehand and I'll have a cold beer waitin on you. In regards to the Maryland game, and perhaps the rest of the season, the team with Sammy Watkins will find a way to win. This kid is a freak.

 

I can say I'm really enjoying the "this was supposed to be our year" attitude by these pansy ass gamecock fans around here, though I do feel terrible for Lattimore. I will never celebrate an injured player, they're just kids with careers in front of them when you boil it down. Hope he has a full recovery and goes on to do what he's capable of. And lets talk about Clowney for a minute. I thought he was going to be the best freshman college football has ever seen, "NFL" ready, etc. Well brother you already know he's not even the best freshman in our state, and it's not close. Wonder if he's having any second thoughts (assuming he's capable of that) about accepting that Chrysler 300 and playing in that shit hole rather than coming to Clemson and being a part of what we are building.

 

Either way man good luck this weekend. Will be playing the Tigers this Saturday, also like GT, Wake, Bama, Wisconsin. Go Clemson!

We threw Mich State a bone, they are about to get derailed by Wisco similiar to what was done to them by Bama last year's bowl game...GL

      all I can say here is...whatever!

8.  How did Ohio S.T complete one pass and still beat Illinois? I had Ohio + the points so I like it. But, the offense is just awful and not creative at all. Why do these guys run HB dive every play? You can run zone read every now and then to mix it up. I know one thing, if the zookster couldn't beat this Ohio S.T team, he never will. I think it's safe to say Illinois is now off the hot teams list and now on the " oh yeah, there Illinois " list.

 

 Hmm I guess his 28-21 win over the sweater vest boy on November, 10th 2007 didn't count.

By the way 165 oh wait he cant see this i forgot! Is hockey a real sport!   Anyways all these people that r talkin shit r just jealous! The bottom line is Boom is a good capper and has the stats to back it up, and U PEOPLE R LUCKY HE POSTS HIS WINNERS FOR ALL TO SEE! U should either bet or fade its UP TO U PEOPLE! So when u make a losing pick just blame urself and move on.

As always good luck to everyone

Of course its possible, but my moneys on Ok St -6.5 . Mizzous secondary is their weakness which is not good vs this team. Gundy will also out coach Pinkel/Yost (the OC). Mizzou is horrible on 3rd down and gets some stupid penalties. Just dont think they can pull it all together to beat a quality team.

Boom, How can you not take Alabama this week in a blowout since Tenn losing their QB last week ? Bama's D should stifle Tenn offense like LSU did. Bama needs to run up the score big !

BOOM: Couple total questions for ya.

Oreg/Colo U63.5  The Ducks should hold the Buffs to minimal points and I gotta believe Oregon will play vanilla and get through this game with James out and Thomas still questionable. I dont see them risking too much as this is a game they simply need to get through it. Road game too boot. Lots of running and clock chewing. Ducks 38-10

USC/ND U57.5   Its a night game and will probably be pretty cold after the sun goes down and I'm not sure the Trojans are gonna be to ready for that. On the flip side, the Irish will find it a bit tough moving the ball as the USC defense is decent. Really dont see both teams hitting 30....ND 30 USC 16

Boom,
Hopefully all the haters have taken a hike by now!!! My favorite comment was the person who keeps tryin to clown you for not having a life, and posting on covers IS your life!?!?!? But, isn't he on here as much as you, posting about how you post too much, and have no life?!! Doesnt quite make sense does it??!!
Forget about em, anyways real talk.
Do you, ( or anybody else in this forum) like Washington + 21 vs. Stanford????? I hope so cuz I just put 5 hundo on it!!!!!!!! Ooooppppsss!!!!! Lol
Take care boom!!

BOL
BOOM...clearly i am biased on this one, but why do you think Irish cover 8 or 9 on SC?  Barkley and Co. definitely have the Passing attack to keep up with ND in this one, IMO.  

ND is always over-rated......
