RJ, the line here is Tulsa getting 1.50 Sag numbers say they s/b favored by almost 12, that's over 13 points, how do you read that? UCF that good at home? Is that where Vegas thinks the line s/b to get even value? Just don't see it?

I haven't seen you in any other forums on here (MLB, NFL, NHL) do you bet anything other then CFB?
I bet most sports. I posted a play for the Jaguars/Ravens game. I do post NFL every now and again. I might post an MLB once in a blue moon. I will bet CBB. I dont really post much, though. My lady gives me a hard time as is, if I tried to expand to another sport for a full season she'd kill me.

I dont pay much attention to those #s. I looked at this game and figured I would lay up to 3. The line has value to me.
But, think to yourself, does it even make sense to make Tulsa a 12 point road favorite here? There is a reason Sag lines are never used.

Agree about Sag lines, just don't get why such a large variance. My self, the average Joe, would see value in Tulsa. I really admire the way you can sort through all this info on a weekly basis and make any sense of it all.

Although I think organized religion is a huge game of telephone - AMEN!!! You are preaching to the choir.
Why does anyone like Baylor this weekend? Geez. Color me crazy. Baylor doesnt stand a chance. They are worse everywhere. RGIII is not an entire team. Why cant Mizzou build off a nice win on the road last week? I dont see every win as a let-down next week. I see some teams putting things together at the right time.
I think its time to get off the Lou wagon, although WVA isnt going to break 30. Tough to cover 2 TDs.
I really have no lean on any of the other games you posted. Cuse you cant take on the road. That game gets thrown out the window.
USF/Rutgers, I have no idea why either team has an advantage. The line sucks.
Love Rice. I mean, Tulsa, favored? On the road? Against Rice? Have you seen who Rice has played?
Dont get confused, though. There is no public bettor taking Bama this weekend. Just the sharpest people you will ever see placing a bet. LSU is fools gold and I am middling my GOY line. If you know someone playing LSU, are you really trying to tell me that person isnt a long-term loser? Every losing bettor I know likes LSU - and this is after Bowling Green on the road last week.
And yeah, I have no idea how you play on USC or Stanford after their game last week. Thats nuts.
Hey Sizzle. I had a brainfart on Bama. LSU is getting pounded by the public. I actually posted that after in the thread. I dont know if you missed it. I think I am going to play Bama too. I was all over them when the line came out but I hated -5 in what I think could be a close one. I still think Bama has the better defense, running game, quarterback, homefield advantage and coach. LSU's defense is very good too Id rate them #2 in America. I just think Lee could have a bad game if Bama plugs that ground game. Those Big East games I had no leans on those games except Louisville slightly just because they have a solid defense but I don't like true frosh QBs on the road.

While we're talking about teaser, I just want to know if you have considered this (I actually just bet these)
2 10.5 point teasers
Jets +12/NE +2/LSU +15
Jets +12/NE+2/BAMA +6
I know crossing zero "loses value", but in this case, NE is basically a filler to get bonus points with the Jets and a middle try on the BAMA game, which I think Bama wins in close game, but I dont know anybody that would bet them -15.....

(Note: I am an ole miss fan but when it comes to money.. I'll take that any day. ex:I took alabama and auburn to cover over my team)
Ole Miss will cover and most likely win by double digits. Rebs are an extremely young team but have gotten better every week as we took arkansas to the 4th quarter and played respectable against auburn until a second half collapse.
Early in the year, the inexperience showed as we lost to BYU (14-13) and got embarrassed by Vandy (who historically always plays their best against us).
If you look, our best playmakers have been two true freshmen WRs who have been making more and more plays everygame, and they both have big play capabilities. I feel they'll exploit UKs weak secondary. Our QB has only started 3 games and is just now getting into rhythm. And also for good note, our best overall player, RB Brandon Bolden, missed the first half of the season and now is looking like he is back close to 100% after playing in the last 2 games.
And lastly, lets face it. This game is at UK, not Bryant Denny or Death Valley so the home field advantage isn't as daunting as you'd think (Rebs traveled across country and beat a Fresno team that is better than UK). Additionally Coach Nutt and staff know that if they don't get a convincing W here, that he'll be shown the door. I am in no way saying we're a very good team, but I really like this matchup for us and the way the line is set up (Rebs -1.5), makes me feel like Vegas is begging for UK money. Just my 2 cents...

I have no problem crossing zero with a tease. I like the first two. I dont like the Bama or LSU just because college is too dynamic, although they both look like winners.
I have done 3 teamers with - NYJ, NE, MIA - SD, NE, NYJ.
Wake is probably going to cover, but I dont love that one. I dont know. Its a great spot.
I am probably going to be on NW, although there was a post here that had me second guessing. I totally agree about Persa. He really looks good.
Hawkeyes are easy to back, Jayhawks were really tough. But I understand reservations about both.
BigRick - Its a good post. Good ideas and approach. Completely disagree, obviously.

Talk me out of Florida... I really want to bet them because I'm seeing an abnormal amount of love for Vandy... so much so that one square book (Sports Interaction) actually had the line lower than the Pinnacle line at one point in the day (-13 vs. -13.5). Reading through some comments about the game over on ESPN.com in their "Conversation" section (which is about as square as you can get) many realistically can see Vandy winning this game outright.
Just don't know if I can pull the trigger or not, though.

While I cant bet UF, I wouldnt bet Vandy. Its just a great time for UF to get a blowout win. But I think Vandy is really on the uptick and plays a very intense defense, so I dont want to go against it with a suspect offense. But you know UF will cover via special teams or a defensive TD.
