@Ilovefootballs Swinging 2-3 points around a pick is no big deal. If it crosses over 3, then you have something! |

@blowoutgm Well, ex NFL player have gone on record that some games are predetermined. One player actually said that they had to sign something indicating that they would not discuss it. Not sure if they couldn't mention it during their playing days or not. But yes, some games are scripted. Of course not play for play. That would be insane to believe that. But the outcome? No doubt at all. |

@TxRangers If I can answer this, I'd say that about 15% of games are fixed. I'm not so sure about college football, but the NFL has said that they are an entertainment business. They are a multi billion dollar business. They are not going to leave their profits up to chance. Several ex players have already gone on record that some games are scripted. |

@LonghornHoosier Wait! You think that something that you can bet on, while the outcome is controlled by others, is not going to be fixed at times?? That's delusional thinking. Of course some games are fixed. Where's there money, there's corruption. |

This post is 100% true! Speaking the truth should not be frowned upon.
That said, I'm a little confused about the reason for the post in a college football forum. Maybe there's another forum for these types of posts |

Since 2000, Super bowl winners at 67% ATS on opening day. Super bowl losers are 16% ATS on opening day. The UNDER has come in 63% of the time on the SB loser games opening day. |

@barronio I would cancel them all, or keep them all. You just know that if you pick and choose which one's to keep, you'll be wrong. That's just how it turns out.
Good luck Barronio! |

I'm laying off of this game, but how does something that happened 3-9 years ago have anything to do with this game? They're not even remotely the same teams today.
Good luck to you tho. |

Sorry....they were all put on the questionable list as "undisclosed" on Monday. I just feel like bettors already knew that they weren't going to play. I could be wrong though. The "undisclosed" part feels like the decision was made on Monday to have them sit out. |

About 30 years ago, I was on such a bad run, that I wrote numbers on little pieces of paper and each number was assigned a team, based on the order of the lines in the news paper. I folded the paper so I couldn't see the numbers, and picked random numbers off the front room floor. I didn't do any better, or any worse. |

What’s the line for Pittsburgh and Dallas next weekend? I say Pittsburgh -14 at least
in NFL Betting I don't think it can be more than 10 in Dallas. Maybe 17 in Pit. But not in Dallas. |

Ravens look like the best team at this point, they have a monster yards per point margin, well above the rest of league, but likely will regresss back at some point. I liked the Ravens today but with the line continuing to climb and such a monster yards per point margin which is going to regress at some point I'd pass on that game . Ravens and KC look like the 2 best teams, Packers have only a 2.2 yards per point margin is not all that good for their record. Seattle has a very good yards per point margin but their defense is horrendous, don't see them getting out of NFC with that defense. It's still early though so things will almost certainly change in the 3 to 4 weeks. When our no. 1 ranked team loses early in the playoffs the way the Ravens did last year in a good number of those cases the team rolled back the next year and won the SB. Jackson hasn't won a single playoff game yet, I think no question he wins one this season most likely in dominating fashion. And at this point with such a monster all-time great yards per point margin, ( that's if they should sustain it the rest of season which is not very likely), I'd take the Ravens to win SB BASED ON BEING NO. 1 RANKED LAST SEASON AND THEIR MONSTER START THIS SEASON. If you remember last season Ravens went through a period of crushing opps, they were in regression mode but beat regression and kept winning big, untill very, very deep into regression and they failed to cover as -6 VS 9ers, winning by 3. This year we already won fading Ravens in regression VS KC, Ravens could not beat regression again like they did last season at least to this point. It's much better for a team to not be so damn hot going into the playoffs as the Ravens were last year and Jackson was talking about being the Tom Brady of his era in an interview before he even won a single playoff game. We need to keep in mind Ravens lost to KC while in regression mode which sets up a rematch in the playoffs to Ravens benefit, but of course alot depends on how each team comes into that rematch which we won't know that answer till the game gets here.
What is a regression play? |

I think the obvious play here is SF. Teams a never as good or as bad as they looked in the previous week.
For the line to go from 3- to 3 also says a lot about where the sharp money is. The betting action is almost split down the middle. |
