I'm not saying you will win or lose, but if you are gambling on a game that you think you cover by ONLY 2 points, THEN THERE ARE BETTER BETS ON THE BOARD according to THOSE predictions.

Yea, but gamblers bet on anything whether it's strong or not. Post your 4 strong plays and let's see what happens.

Georgia 2012 Schedule:

@Missouri / 5-6 Record / Won 41-20

Florida Atlantic U. / 3-8 Record / Won 56-20

Vanderbilt / 7-4 Record / Won 48-3

Tennessee / 4-7 Record (0-7 SEC) / Won 51-44

@South Carolina / 9-2 Record / Lost 35-7

@Kentucky / 2-9 Record (0-7 SEC) / Won 29-24

(N)Florida / 10-1 Record / Won 17-9

Ole Miss / 5-6 Record / Won 37-10

@Auburn / 3-8 Record (0-7 SEC) / Won 38-0

Georgia Southern (FCS Team) / 8-3 Record / Won 45-14

 

So let me get this straight: Georgia has a shot to play in a BCS game, possibly a national championship by playing a schedule with a combined record of 60-61? Wait, let me throw out the FCS team, 52-58? With three teams that are a combined 0-21 in the SEC?

I hope to god Georgia beats Alabama and gets in the National Championship game so I can bet the farm on an overrated SEC team like I did when Utah shoved it up Saban's behind in the Sugar Bowl. Unfortunately Mark Richt will still be the coach, so he won't be prepared to win a big game. Life is good for an average team in the SEC....

I understnd your point but ND's competition is not much better at 58-50, not to mention the fact that the teams they should have crushed, pushed them to the limit. The bottom line is you can only play who's on the schedule..................how's Georgia Tech feeling right now.

GA/ND would be two top 20 defenses but the edge to GA with a much more balanced offense. In my humble opinoin.

Bad gamblers bet on EVERYTHING and they lose their asses overall. GOOD gamblers wait for good opportunities and Don't Bet Just To Have Action. GOOD gamblers aren't Addicted to Gambling or betting for ENTERTAINMENT.

If you are gambling for ACTION or ENTERTAINMENT, you are JUST gambling. It is only GOOD gambling when you are gambling to MAKE money,...and "predicting" to cover by only 2 points is NOT going to make you money overall.

All I am doing is trying to open eyes to making more money...think about it...if you think you are only going to Cover By 2 Points, IT IS A WEAK PLAY!

IF YOU TAKE USC +5 AND YOU CAN'T EVEN PREDICT USC WILL WIN THE GAME, WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU PUT MONEY ON IT?

Make money and be smart,...don't Waste your money on the High and Addiction of gambling.

As a ND fan I believe they have enough offense and deffense to cover this game. But unfortunately I am a ND fan and I've seen this all play out before. ND has a tendency of blowing games and not showing up when then should. They have let me down before and  I have a sick feeling in my gut they ruin my chance at a national title.

Gotta like the Golden Domers here....USC and Kiffin won't get the job done.  I'll take the better D and the team playing for a national title shot, not the team playing spoiler.

ND -4.5
GL to all!!!

ND, undefeated so I guess rank them #1 but anyone who watches them knows there is no way they are as good as the top teams...but luck of Irish....hard to fight.

As far as Barkley, he was over-hyped & nobody believed my call of UCLA Hundley being better than him.  I'll take it a step further & say back-up QB Max Wittek may be better than Barkley. I don't see it as much of a drop off at all. USC was favored by 3 before last weekend.  Now +6? I'll take it.  Tough spot for new QB first start vs great defense but I like the kid & won't surprise me if he leads them to victory.

This is a lot coming from me since I make a small fortune betting (picking my spots) against inflated USC lines almost every year.

Something of note....I don't see the usual delusional USC fans on here talking their regular nonsense.  That tells me time to take USC.


Makes sense to me.

        Thanks lordz.I thought I was in a chat room here.Simple post just info,no icons,no trash talk, and you didn't mention Ala.

I think we need a little clarity. These two teams are overrated by the homers who pimp them. These same homers underrate the other side. Everybody else tries to keep a grip on reality. Good luck tonight.
