My Top 5
1. Bama
2. Fsu
3. Oregon
4. Baylor
5. Ohio St

Big time week ahead with critical matchups, lets see if the Ducks can retake the 2nd spot in my polls, for now, they get passed during their bye week, fsu blowing out Miami can't be disputed, not even by me, they are good & deserve credit, ready to see how things play out in the title chase

Heisman
Mariota -- no picks for that pimp, fast as lightning & he's just a cool customer, can't give it to Johnny Football again but he & Winston are right behind, all 3 are a treat to watch & why we love this game

Not a good week in 10 for me, chose the wrong leans, it happens, moving on

Some of our guys did great in week 10, well done

Lets find the money

WahooS... 

Wahoos,  Good idea starting your post in the dead of night.  Maybe you won't be censored till morning.  I want to get your thoughts on Penn St. ml but that may cause issues with big brother about happy coaches.  I don't dare ask about N. Dame -5 because that may be a source of trouble with Irish haters. BYU +7.5?  Sure not going there.

Wow,  they actually censor the word happy. happy?  Is sexual predator an acceptable term?   Sorry for junking up your post.  I'm thru ranting now.       GL,   Doc  

I believe that the censorship is simply computer programming. I believe they set the site so that if you type in the word sh.it is automatically changed to garbage, etc, etc. Nothing to do with mods changing anything

Maybe try again but leave out the negative categories which were something like an award for the worst handicapper or biggest pretender or liar or what have you. I could see where those two would piss some people off and could start causing lawsuits. It was a great idea and I was looking forward to following it. First time poster, longtime reader.

Wahoos, Best of Luck this week , Bud 

Hoos-

Rarely over here, but love your stuff.  I am looking hard at UNC this week against your boys and would like to hear your thoughts, if you have time.  Thanks and best of luck.

One of the best poster on covers.com ( capper, classy, and insightful)

bol this week bud

WahooS,

1st off want to thank you for what you, jdn, and double up have done this year. I have had my best year in idk how long. Don't always follow you guys, but you have some very good insight on conferences I have no clue about. You all have definitely given me  different angles.

2nd off, I want your thoughts on these games if you don't mind:

Baylor -14
Oregon -10

I'm thinking of doing a 3 team 10 point with both of these and anther yet to be determined team. 1st thought is that lines are inflated due to their strength against the spread, and if I buy it down in a 10 pt tease, I get the line where it should be.  However, I could also inflate the lines even more and teas it up.

And Miz -14.  I think people are thinking that this is a look ahead.  I was at game on Sat vs Tenn, and their D is better than people give them credit for. As well, they can run the ball on almost any team.

Thanks again, you're trending for a great week!

no doubt you'll rebound strong...making another attempt on USC (0-3 with them this year) so Cal should be safe, looking forward to the insights on the Ducks-Stanford and OU-Baylor matchups, BOL this week bud

nos, i was money on usc, fading them but when kiffin was the coach, hated when they fired him!!    decided to lay off them and see how the respond

definitely going out with a bang, gracious

I don't do Big10 so can't help you there, I could give you a play in that game and you could fade it for a certain win though, I'm awful in that conference and simply avoid it, I like money too much to give it away

no real opinion on Notre Dame, they are probably better but Tommy Rees is sure to throw a pick or two and give Pitt some hope

the Byu game means much more to the Cougars, they come in well rested and catch Wisky in the middle of conference play, Wisky has been solid against run this season but Taysom Hill has improved drastically since the start of the year, he can scramble and throw it now,  the line should be about 10-11ish by numbers since it's in Wisky but I'd almost lean to BYU, they can go toe to toe with many teams, as I said, this line is slightly off and doesn't give much value to the dog so I'll probably stay away, I don't bet many games where I know the line doesn't match my numbers

Bud, I hope you change your mind . You are a class act ,

and provide valuable insight to this forum ,  Thanks 

Unc seems to have some momentum going finally and playing more like they were expected to at the start of the season, two teams going opposite directions, the line is slightly high & I can't trust a Fedora led team to cover that number myself but all things point to a comfortable Tarheel win, I don't like that UNC is coming off rivalry road win for you but could only back UNC in this game if I were to bet it

probably win 38-17ish

 it's not about changing my mind, it's a definite, this is my last season online without question, I'm looking forward to retirement to be very honest, I've had a great run and met some cool cats over the years, especially had fun with some covers members in Vegas

I'm staying home this week due to slight illness but will be going out this month to Vegas, anyone is welcome to come hang at the Wynn, if you like winning money and slamming drinks then bring it, there is a group of 11 of us and 8 of them are members here

I'm classy to those who are nice to me & are helpful to our forum, I've been known to slam others on occasion and have no problem calling someone out if I feel the need, probably a bit of a character flaw but we all have something wrong with us

thanks for the kind post, I will miss chatting with some of you about football for sure but I talk to so many people now regarding games that my head is always spinning, if you get a bit of a reputation for winning in this game then it's hard to stay on the down low & I'm not talking about online down low, I've obviously always welcomed chatter in my threads, I'm talking real life friends that just bother the fawk out of me all the time, it seems much of my days are spent going over games with friends, it's nice to have a losing streak at times so they leave me be for few days

 all these years spent at Covers have been fun but I think at some point, you either grow tired of doing it or just know it's time to be done with it

the reason I chose to let everyone know I was leaving is I know some of them, have met them and hung out with them in Vegas, didn't want people thinking I just died or something, it wasn't for attention like a few have suggested, if I needed the attention I wouldn't be leaving, not very hard to figure that one out

once again, thank you for the classy post

Let me know when you're coming to town

will do, hope you like stacks, drinks & tail

coming to a theater near you

JDN is very good, others as well, this place won't miss a beat once I'm gone, plenty of good ones, JD & Double are good ones to read

I'm not prepared to give thoughts on Oregon/Stanford yet

I'm already on Baylor for Large Money

it will be my first official Large Money post this year, going out with style and grace , when I post Baylor I will include my thoughts as to why

hope you smash your book

WahooS, you said a few weeks ago that you thought Oregon would blowout Stanford (if I remember correctly).... Do you still feel that way?
