(.73 x .73 x .727 x .727 x.727 = .2048)The true odds of a 1 in 5 bet would return 4 to 1, or +400. So your +350 payout is a bit on the low side. The house edge on this bet is=(-1 * 0.7952) + (3.5 * 0.2048)or 7.84%. That, of course, is a higher house edge than the normal 11 to win 10.Those are my thoughts. Good luck with your bet.Any thoughts people? Appreciate the analysis, being a number guy. Different way to look at it. |

Also liking
CIN -2. Pats fan but they look BADDD DET -7. Totally different team at home, playing KYLE ORTON hahahaha. That smells like a BLOWOUT CLE +2. They can put up points and I don't think that TEN can match up Any thoughts people? |

7 point teaser (+350) gets the spreads to SEA -0.5 DEN -0.5 SD PK PIT PK PHI PK Take the points, these teams all win 8 times out of 10 BOL |

Look for a repeat performance from last year. Two bad winless teams coming into the game and Massachusetts will win. I just think this time it will be a higher scoring game than 17-10. My only worry is that last weeks homecoming loss may have killed this teams morale, but with the points they have been scoring I don't think Miami will keep up.
I think that they would be favorites if this game were at UMass which means that the books are giving Miami around 6 points for home field which to me is too much. I like UMass with the ML but if you don't like it, get them while you can at +3.5 before it hits 3 or less. Other leans: Miami over GT FL over TN Will be back with more BOL ladies and gents. |

loving 6 point teaser getting line/points to:
App St. +25 Ov 54 @ -110 I think there is value here. I like App St. to keep it close (maybe even win) thinking about taking that line at +19 or ML. Thoughts? BOL ladies and gents |

Pack, I did see those schedules today, I'm liking what they are doing, setting themselves up to get a couple wins and play some better teams (respectively) in army, BYU and Tennessee (and maybe even get an upset or 2).
Hopefully they will keep it going in the right direction. For now, go BGSU! |

They are certainly not what I would call a good team. Neither team is particularly strong on the defensive side of the ball so it could turn into a shootout, in which case I trust the UMass offense will not hang.
I like BGSU -4.5. |

Going back to the old stomping grounds this weekend for homecoming and looking forward to be passed out in a corn field when I win or lose a bet.
I think that this UMass team is hungry after 2 tough losses (and a blowout loss) but I still do not trust them and I am certainly not afraid to fade them now that they have played a couple good games and are getting some smaller spreads. I may take BGSU -4.5, and hedge it with the fact that if UMass wins it could turn into an epic night in little Amherst, MA. Anybody got thoughts? |

Curry, any thoughts on
A&M -21 ASU -8.5 |

That Colorado defense couldn't stop umass last week. ASU will score but will Colorado be able to score twice and cover the over.
Any thoughts? |

Thanks sports_network.
Gotta love it. Looking real good on the bell bet, he's at 34 yards half way through the 4th |

And to add to it the line has not really budged. I would not be surprised to see smart money move it late in favor of Baltimore.

That's all I am starting to think. And the more I see te more k lean towards Baltimore/coin flip which is why I am going to stay away from the lines and roll on a player prop.
Leveon Bell over 30.5 yards receiving. Take it to the bank |

Unless Tomlin decides that this is his "suspension" game, I see no reason that he should not blow this out with 40+ yards. Bell is coming off a good game last week and I think Big Ben is realizing that the he may be the key to this offense rushing and receiving. He is currently PITs leading receiver and I don't see that changing this week. Should be many opportunities for dump offs.
I also like PIT to win and the over. 2 historically good defenses and that is keeping the over/under low. (44.5) PIT 30 BAL 21 Thoughts? |

I am liking this bet.
While iwakuma seems to handle division foes he has not pitched too hot as of late with a >7 era in last 3. On the other side we have a AAA call up in Tropeano who could get lit up. Neither offense is overly powerful but I think this is going to be an on base game for Seattle who will be able to put up 5+. I'm liking a 6-2 win for Seattle. Any thoughts? |
