I respect your capping, that's why I pose questions... but saying "you form opinions after one game" is something you ONLY say to someone you think is an idiot!

replied to NCAA FB Week 8 (61-40-2 YTD : 60.39% : 8-7 LW) in College Football How the hell can you say CMich is DEFINITELY the worst in the MAC, and then criticize my analysis... CMich would beat both Mia-Oh and WMich 9 times out of 10... probably beat EMich 7 out of 10... pretty absurd for you to make your statement, and then criticize mine... See ya!

I bought the hype on NIU for one game, but just as fast I'm off that bandwagon... they're not as good as advertised, and CMU might not be as bad as advertised...

replied to Alabama vs Oregon BCS title line?? in College Football I can guarantee you that Alabama would not be favored by more than 3... and it would be bet down by gametime... closing line would be somewhere between Oregon (-1) and Bama (-2.5)... assuming both teams are healthy...

replied to Tennessee... in NFL Betting Quote Originally Posted by 165yds: I had the Hawks too. If that game is played 10 times with all things being equal they cover 8. Titan backers you got your 20%, at one point it was nearly 400 yds to 100. You won but it wasn't the right side, it shows why it's so tough to hit 58%. Just like the Bengals game, I capped it correctly... but capping it correctly does not mean it will win... Smart, experienced cappers get that! Whereas idiots like "trying2makeabuk"... who incidentally will never post their plays and set themselves up for potential ridicule... do not get it!

replied to Avoiding losing plays in College Football Quote Originally Posted by BandosWB: And sure enough, OK, Oregon State, S Carolina are early pub favs. and Alabama at 79%. Crap. And Miami makes the list. Worth putting them on the no play list. Only issue I see here, is where do you get your numbers? Different sites and services provide conflicting information... so who's top 10 list would you use? Definitely agree with both principles, though... not necessarily a "fade the public" kind of guy... but if I like a play, and I see that it is against the public, it helps to reinforce my confidence... and I might stay away from a game if it looks a bit too popular...

replied to #5 FSU at #3 Clemson INSIGHT in College Football Quote Originally Posted by POTUS: FSU has had two weeks to prepare. I don't know if or how this helps or hurts them, but thought if throw it out for discussion. IMO it can only help Glad you brought this up... I have been noticing more and more that CFB teams do not benefit from bye weeks in any significant way... at least not on the scoreboard... I bet teams off a bye are well under 50% ATS this year... well under! Probably below 40%... NFL teams have success off of the bye... but for some reason, it doesn't do much for college teams... probably because they get lax, and don't practice every day...

replied to #5 FSU at #3 Clemson INSIGHT in College Football I agree FSU is the better team on paper... put them on a neutral field late in the year, and I'll probably take FSU... BUT... they are the more inexperienced team in this matchup, and Clemson at home is a very different beast... this is clearly their game of the year... I'm not endorsing Clemson... I just don't see how anyone could trust laying pts with them on the road against a quality team... seems like an unknown quantity... Clemson has played more big games in the last couple years than FSU... can they handle this? We'll see... View Post \| View Thread	PlayinPlot	80	October 14, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Tennessee... in NFL Betting Quote Originally Posted by mbialowas: Tennessee was the right side here, there was a ton of sharp money that came in late on the titans. They covered the points with ease even with an incompetent qb What planet are you from? If your reasoning for saying Tennessee was the right side, is the fact that "sharp money" came in light... then I have no interest in your opinion. "Sharp" bettors... don't follow "sharp" money... they ARE the sharp money! By definition, therefore, you are NOT SHARP! So who cares how you evaluate "right" or "wrong" sides... Fact is, up until the last minute of the game, Titans fans were still sweating it... but yea, they covered easily! Scal... pretty much thinking the same... probably not gonna see a 4.5... 4 will be fine with me... pretty sure the Jets will win, or it will be a 19-17 kind of a game...

replied to #5 FSU at #3 Clemson INSIGHT in College Football Quote Originally Posted by ChiliDogs_3: I was just skimming this thread and came across this statement which is something I've thought about throughout my years and experiences gambling on sports.... There's this internal, pyschological hurdle that most of us have a hard time getting past. There's a weird comfort or justification, for lack of a better term, in betting on the "Safer" side and losing, than to put $ down on the unpopular or head-scratching side of a line, and winning or losing. There's a weird sense of pride that screws with your ability to see where you SHOULD bet vs where the number is LEADING you to bet. This is one of the biggest games in CFB in quite some time, and I wouldn't be surprised to see any number of possible outcomes occur, but it makes me feel at least a little more confidence in backing FSU, based on the mentality in the quote above. Great post! As the season wears on, the books get a better read on teams, and have greater success in scaring people away from certain games and certain teams... Oregon - Wazzou is an example, to me... how many people can feel comfortable laying 38 against Oregon? That line is going to induce quite a few LARGE bets on Wazzou, and a whole bunch of SMALL bets on Oregon... because nobody feels SAFE laying that many points, against a live opponent... But the SAFE mentality is totally illogical... Oregon either WILL cover or WILL NOT cover, and the number of points they have to lay to get there only matters inasmuch as their chances are greater or less than 50%... Oregon -38 might not look "SAFE" before the game starts... but if they are up 21-0 in the first quarter... how safe do you think those people with Wazzou are gonna feel? The SAFE PLAY mentality is always in full effect leading up to the games... but come gameday, it is easy to see that it all goes out the window...

replied to #5 FSU at #3 Clemson INSIGHT in College Football Quote Originally Posted by incognegro: Calling Boom_Boom!!! You know it's sad... Boom Boom and Jimmy Da Freak are two guys I didn't really agree with a lot of the times... but they both were extremely knowledgeable in terms of breaking down their conferences and teams, by and large... and it's not as if this site has people like that coming out their ears... But as usual... idiots around here antagonize and moan and wail after a bad week... and invariably people who ARE contributing have to ask themselves... "Why the darn should I help any of these dipshits by providing them with any insight?" And you can never get around the fact that the answer is... "I shouldn't!" But for games like this, regardless of who they think will cover, the insight of Boom can help others get a feel for the game, and find out any info they might be missing... so the covers masses once again succeed at SLITTING THEIR OWN THROATS... Moral of the story: Covers clowns don't want insight... they want winners! People like ME want insight... I'll figure out my own winners... but a little expertise on a game I can't spend hours capping, would be helpful once in awhile... But this lesson will not be heeded... the hand that feeds will be bitten off again... View Post \| View Thread	PlayinPlot	80	October 14, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Tennessee... in NFL Betting Quote Originally Posted by composite: what about SF -4 this week? A sh*tty team can only do so much w home field advantage. Definitely caught my eye! If anything, the fact the Titans covered this game only skews value in favor of those fading them again this week... I spend the first couple days looking at CFB, so I don't get too deep into the NFL until late in the week... but this is a likely play for me... pretty sure I will play the Jets (+4) against the Pats... Pats and Saints beat the living garbage out of each other, and I think the Pats walk into a bad situation here... physical Jets team is something they don't want to see... hopefully I can get 4.5 or better, but I would probably bite at 3.5...
