Default Weekend Recap/Quick play for Thursday

Weekend record: 3-3 (-94 units)
CFB Record: 3-4 (-111 units)
NFL Record: 1-1 (-10 units)
Yearly Total: 4-5
New Bankroll: 379 units

uneventful weekend as we lost close to 100 units. One of those weekends were I was hitting the wrong wagers and losing the 'right' wagers. The Virginia play was another play that, looking back on, was just plain dumb. I should have played OSU for more as I thought I had an advantage because of what I saw last year (when Smith entered the game). Hindsight is a bitch.

Bears game was never a doubt and we almost eeked out a cover on the NY Giants game. New Orleans and Baltimore were also games that I let slip by as I liked them, just not enough to tout. I think Baltimore has a HUGE shot to make some noise in the NFC now that they finally have a QB.

I already have one play in which I am going to tout, the line has changed already but I did get it in right when the line was put up. I am going to use what I have it at as I got the wager in

West Virginia at home -14 (-107) against Maryland.

WV -14 for 100 units (+7)

More to come on the upcoming week, ALOT of tough games and alot of GREAT games this week

Florida/Tenn
Miami-Fl/Louisville
ND/Michigan

Thursday: 1-0(+100 units)
CFB Record: 4-4 (-11 units)
NFL Record: 1-1 (-10 units)
Yearly Total: 5-5
New Bankroll: 479 units

Got lucky and almost got backdoor pushed, people that got the line at 14 were going to be upset but not SMOKED like the people that had the line at 17, at least that freshman dropped the ball while going in down 21..

Saturday/Sunday picks to come Friday morning/afternoon

Default Saturday/Sunday Plays

CFB Record: 4-4 (-11 units)
NFL Record: 1-1 (-10 units)
Yearly Total: 5-5
New Bankroll: 479 units

West Virginia got the bankroll back to where it needs to be last night and now we are looking to get into the black this weekend. I have 5 NCAA plays and 1 NFL parlay.

Pittsburgh -2.5 at home against Michigan State

Plain and simple, Michigan State plays Notre Dame next week on National TV, and I am guessing about 75% of the players will be dreaming about playing Notre Dame as Pittsburgh is destroying them. I am hoping that MSU is getting around 17-21pts next week as they would be a good play, becuase they have had spent so much time thinking about it. Pitt is no slouch either, but I question there offense and there hot head QB

Pittsburgh -2.5 for 80(+8) units

Florida -3.5 at Tennessee

Tennesse has the all too common trap game last weekend when playing Air Force. Debut against a supposed National Title caliber team and destory them, and then play Florida two weeks later, with little ole Air Force inbetween. I am still not a believer in Tennessee and Florida has talent 3 deep, at almost all positions, at all times. Huge fan of Urban Meyer and I think he has got this team ready for this exact matchup, since the end of last year

Florida -3.5 for 40(+4) units

Notre Dame (-4.5) at home against Michigan

Something has been fishy about this game from the start. Sunday pre and post Bears game we usually talk about opening lines for Saturday games, see who is right about lines and such. I thought this game would open at 5-6 points, I logged onto Pinnacle and saw 8.5 and was like "Huh, makes no sense whatsoever". People obviously pounded this line down to where it should be. I think Notre Dame is a TD better then Michigan, and having Weis is a huge plus. I think he has taught these kids about one play at a time, one game at a time because Penn State could have EASILY been a Tennesseee/Air Force type game because while Florida/Tenn is HUGE...Notre Dame/Michigan is a real close second in terms of rivarly. While close through and a most likely competitve game, still think ND wins by 10

Notre Dame -4.5 for 50(+5) units

Miami-Florida +4 at Louisville

Since when does Miami play the underdog role...I don't care who you are, Miami should always be respected, even though it looks like they are recruiting high character kids now and throwing down some discipline, don't care about that crap, all I care about is that this team might be FASTER then Louisville, and I fully expect Miami to win this game. I refuse to believe that Louisville will beat a top caliber team like Miami...Not going nuts because I don't want to be the guy saying "Louisville is legit" but I think Miami is a STRONG play

The "U" +4 for 50(+5) units

ASU (-11) at Colorado

I want to go all-in on this game as I think ASU will win by 35. ASU is the type of team that doesn't quit, I absolultely love there coach. I have watched games where they were up 28 with 7 to go and they are throwing 30 yard out routes. Give me a team like this every day of the week and 8 times on Sunday. Colorado is brutal, they could probably get 11 girls like that one girl that kicked for them a couple years and beat the team they have now

ASU-11 for 70(+7) units

NFL Sunday
A trap week in my opinion as so many people are watching/betting the NFL and they still don't understand that teams have off weeks. Look at Tampa for example, they are getting 5.5 this week and this team is suppose to contend for the Super Bowl, all because they played like crap Week 1..

We are going to play a 50 unit 2 team parlay (13/5 odds)
New Orleans -2 / NY Giants + 3 to pay 180 units

New Orleans is facing GB this week and here is what I know. GB is going to struggle to win 3 games this year, they are absolutely brutal. West Virginia would beat GB by 21 if the game was at West Virginia

The Giants/Eagles line is out of whack, should be the other way around. Eagles beat up on the comedy Texas with the great Mario Williams(can you say, "Um no")

Both of the above teams are good straight plays as well

Total Units Used: 369 units
New Bankroll: 110 units

Have Micheel and Monty both winning their semi finals+ Notre Dame(-5)+ Arizona State(-11)+Missouri(-14)+Chicago,or A's to win World Series

pays 329/1(chc)

or

253/1(A's)


Then(in case Monty loses his match)have Micheel to win the Matchplay final+ Notre Dame(-5)+ Arizona State(-11)+Missouri(-14)+Chicago,A's to win World Series

pays 361/1(chc),

or

277/1(A's)




Hopefully can win both bets(Micheel beats Monty in Finals.)


Please note:Meant to use Twinks,but accidentally doubled up with Chicago(could be subconcious taking over...saying "CONTRERAS IS A WITCH, YOU FOOL")
