Wow San Jose State is going to lose to its FCS opponent getting 50 possibly dropped on them at home. Thank god I didn’t bet their season win total over 2.5.

Believe me I tried to look for reasons and after extensive research found none!

That's the one thing Dave Malinsky stressed so often. Get to the window before everyone else. It matters! 
better to be on wake forest -5.5 though. too bad that first half of northwestern killed my under. sloppy, as predicted. second half looked great, though. much more organized and strategic. i like how purdue is shaping up

nicely done, stu

I put said in an earlier post that I had Minnesota and Central Florida both locked in to 1h and full game bets but that I had forgot what spread and price I had gotten. I said I had to log in and check. Then I logged in.

Minnesota -12 -110 first half

Minnesota -20.5 -110 full game

Central Florida -14 -110 first half

Central Florida -23 -110 full game

4-0

You knew exactly what I meant.

i'm leaning heavily on san diego st. today. i know that penny is gone and who knows if the new rb will be able to fill those shoes. however, stanford was horrible last year and the ONLY reason they had half the wins they accumulated was because of bryce love. now, i know he is back this year and expect nonetheless, but i feel like 14 points is too many for this san diego st defense. stanford has a ton of replacements including damn near their entire defense

locking in:
SDS +14 -120

i lean duke and western michigan. syracuse has too many missing pieces this early in the season

I literally had NO IDEA what you meant.

Just asking! Guy goes 4-0 I want to know what won


This has to be the tennis bad beat of the year and really is unconscionable:

I don’t follow tennis outside the big names but Kyrgios, essentially giving up in the brutal US Open Heat (and I’m over here in NYC and the Heat was DEATH that day so I know what he felt) and the UMPIRE gives him a pep talk and he comes back to win. It wasn’t the 5th set match point but still!!! Terrible BAD BEAT for the Herbet backers!!


Swedish official Mohamed Lahyani is under fire for his unprecedented intervention, but Kyrgios rolls on after pulling off a drama-charged comeback win over Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert.

Kyrgios was trailing 3-0 in the second set when Lahyani left his chair to beg the Australian to start trying for the sake of the paying crowd - and to avoid being sanctioned for not giving his best effort.

'I want to help you,' Lahyani repeated. 'I've seen your matches: You're great for tennis. Nick, I know this is not you.'

That’s ideal line shopping!

Purdue giving up 31 first half points and losing the turnover battle almost won, played flawless second half D, and had a true freshman break the all time Purdue total yards in a game record.

Brohm gives some great halftime speeches!

Still, they lost a very important home opener and in this spot, for the progress his team has made in the past year, a loss here is acceptable but deflating.

I don’t really see an advantage with this line. But 14 points is 14 points.

The adjustments they’ll have to make without Penny will be major!

That tennis ump will not only be suspended, but perhaps Herbert lawyers up to sue for lost income and other intangibles...the jump in prize money and player points at a slam is significant, almost career changing for a guy like Herbert...this action by the ump is unparelleled in professional sports and i hope justice will be swift...and the ripple effect is now Federer is truly thrown under the bus because he now has to play Nick rather than Herbert...vs Herbert Fed would have been a -2000 type fav, now hes only a -300 vs Kyrgios.

Scal...tennis is quickly becoming a joke...code violation for quickly fixing ones attire:

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/sport/2018/aug/29/alize-cornet-penalty-shirt-removal-us-open-tennis-heat

 

Also, another huge pet peeve of mine is the lack of enforcement regarding this new serve clock rule...no one is being called out for it...i dont care if its hot outside, a rule is a rule...if the ball has not been tossed up for serve it should be called automatically each and everytime...by not calling it just makes the sport look mickey mouse....imagine if the shot clock in basketball was open to interpretation the refs would allow a few extra seconds for a team to get a shot attempt off...and dont get me started on the loophole on this serve clock rule where players are deliberately cheating by throwing up an errant ball toss and catching it to allow them another 15sec of recovery time.

Who the hell is offended by a woman in a sports bra???

How pathetic.

Do you think Kyrgios is worth a shot here with this unprecendented “momentum”??? I mean, this is an angle we’ll never see again!

I would expect Roger wins this match, but over 3.5 sets or the over in games are betting options im strongly considering.

Nick made some comments the other day about what it’s like to play Roger etc.  can’t find exact quote but I think he gets up for moments like this.  Not saying he will win but I think roger fears this match more than we think.  I think he’s worth a small stab but like PB said the Over should be the play here.

Interesting. I’d love to see this angle come to fruition with a win.

Gonna lay off the Over Under as I have no clue what I’d be doing there but I appreciate the advice.

I should just stick with serena but this angle is intriguing.

I too grabbed Serena at -261.  Currently sits at -285.  Hopefully this isn’t a penalty box bloodbath.

Not at all scal...  Juwan Washington is the next man up and will flirt with 2000 yards.   SDSU is turning in the old Denver Broncos of the late 90's-early 2000's.  Plug a guy in and let him run.

while 5 wagers on a friday nite may be a bit much i got the fever. Colo St. getting 7' from a Buff. team with many new moving parts coupled with the fact the St. was not ready last week and got bushwacked leads me to believe they will be ready tonight and might win outright. I'll take the 7' though.

I understand that BWS but that exact point made me check 5Dimes to see if Juwan Under 2,000 yards exists (it doesn't). 2 in a row, already an all-time record is enough.

Strangely, SDSU is over under 8.5 wins at -120. That seems low.
