ok, do you think they will be 29 pts better here since its not in the morning?
let's remember that Maryland got out to a huge lead in that game and when Cal woke up they came storming back and showed they were ultimately the better team... just buried themselves too deep...
Cal's defense will shut them down... if Maryland can't score 17 points they won't be able to cover...

Ice, I see NCSU is on the consensus list. Liked the play ALOT early. The more I look, the more advantage I see for SC. Listened to Spurriers radio show on the way home tonite. He has that smug attitude that he used to have at Fla. I think he's sandbagging a bit this year. For what he lost, this D should be in shambles, but he keeps talking about Leadership and he has 4 freshmen that he likes alot. Have you ever changed sides of a bet like this and would you feel comfortable going against a consensus of the top cappers? I'd consider SC a small play right now if Festo's list wasn't against it.
I don't care for Spurrier, but I sometimes think people mistake his confidence for arrogance.

I agree, probably a no play, just wanted to get Ice's take on my position. He has a very unique way of seeing things. I really appreciate his perspective.

really? wow that's useful info...
let me tell you a little story about week 1 last year (and virtually every other week 1 in CFB)...
i bet 10 games... all of them were favorites... at least half were DD favorites... only Tennessee (-7) didn't cover...
but that's not all... all 9 of the games that did cover beat the spread by AT LEAST 10 points... every one!
but i'm sure you're right!
so no... i don't believe you, because you are wrong, based on REAL past results, and based on what will happen this weekend...

Ksp... i have no feel at all for that game, and don't see any reason to bet it...
but regarding your question, do i ever flip-flop? no... the most i will is buy out of a bet if i get some information that gives me a good reason to do so...
which gets to a little pet-peave of mine... Vegas_Crunch... no offense, but don't ever tell me to "be careful" with a game i have already bet... i am, by defnition, extremely careful BEFORE i bet the games... i cap them very thoroughly... and on top of that, it takes a whole lot for me to reverse a bet and cancel out of it... so saying it all after the fact doesn't do me any good...
i know you meant well, so i'm not giving you shit... just a heads up for you and anyone else...
if i have put my hard-earned money on a game... i am already being careful...

yea Cherokee... what made it worse is all the other games were in the bag, and i really wanted that 10-0... even after all the shitty play by Tennessee, they still could have covered if they had been able to extend it one more possession in OT... bastards!
just goes to show... you really can't win 'em all!

rg... i honestly never completed calculating the exact record through the end of bowl games... i can only tell you i was just under 65% and finished the year up 33 units... which may look good, but at one point i was up over 50 units, and dropped all the way down to +25 units before the bowl games... so i do not look at last year as a very successful outing...
closing out this thread... i made a new thread, since this one is getting too long...
