The “why did I take Marshall” thread

@TheSituation559

 When I look at games, the teams overall records mean very little to me. If that’s what you’re basing your betting strategy off of, who has the better record will cover the spreads…then I would like to be your bookie. 

@KasperNV

 I have been around as long as Wally    shhhhhhhhhhhh

@bittenbythehook

 How did the strategy work betting last weekend in NFL? Eagles, Bills, 49ers all huge favorites with far superior records than their opponents. All 3 failed to cover spreads, 2 lost SU.

But you keep betting on games solely based on the overall records. Keep track, I’d love to see how much money you lose throughout the year. 

@bittenbythehook

 Ahhhh that's not what hes saying at all. I see reading comprehension isn't your strong suite 

The fact that people think he's betting on over all record is comical but to be expected on this fourm . For those that are struggling read the first post Slowly......very slowly then hopefully you get it 

@Fademeuwin

 I must be slow, because all I see is the reason he’s laying points on JMU is because they are 6-0. And the reason he took the points last night is solely based on the fact of SH was 0-6. No other information on why betting against SH was the way to go, or why betting on JMU tonight is the way to go, other than what their overall records are. What a I missing? 

@bittenbythehook

 You must be , because his post gives 0’indication who he bet or if he even picked a side. He made a point , which clearly you aren’t able to grasp. Your Public school is education showing 

Hes simply stating the same people who laid -5.5 on 0-6 ( majority of the fourm last night) are the same people who are scared to lay 3-4 on a team that's 6-0 ( majority are on Marshall tonight on the fourm ) . Has nothing to do with overall record persay but more pointing out people trying to be cute and act " sharp" . His Sam Houston thread did a good job at pointing this out lastnight. I don't have a dog in this fight as I have no bet on this game but I'm simply pointing out his side. It's not just this game it's the fourm in general about trying to get to cute with pretty obvious plays.  

Well last night for sure the high majority was on SH, to the point I avoided it but today it is more playing JM  The bloodbath mumbo jumbo is funny but I dont see the comparison between yesterday and today for how people are taking the game.

“FIU game winning FG time! See yall at the window boys”

Laying -3.5 agaisnt a good Marshall team on the road who who’ll be hungry after they just lost their first conference game?

marshall won’t lose 2 conference games in a row 

tough spot for jmu here imo. Bol 

@OverAmbassador

but but but JMU has to win, they are 6-0

”FIU +5.5 is the play and ML”

Is that considered 0 indication who he bet or which side he was on? 

Now YOUR public school education is showing

Why are you so angry? Just bet Marshall tonight and lose your Carmel Macchiato latte money

@TheSituation559

 Oh I’m not angry at all. Just find it hilarious as to your betting strategy being based on record alone. Then trying to defend yourself saying that’s not what ya said. Be a man, own your fck up and move on. And I will not be betting on this game tonight as I could see it going either way, not worth the risk 1 side or the other. 

Hearing from multiple different sources that the team is very banged up. Depending on the source I've heard that 5-7 starters will be out.

And yes, Ali's name has been mentioned.

Neal, Abraham, Holler, Leggs, Ali, Montgomery, Conley?

 
just sharing some info working to confirm 

I was in a good mood till i read that dumb Sam play, laying 6 on a 0-6 team. LOL

Good luck all

 With regression comes room for improvement also, right?  I think adjustments will be made accordingly just past the half way point OF THE SEASON. GL
