Made it all up and more with Alabama and Clemson teaser. My bookie is not answering phone. He is hustling to liquidate his bitcoins to pay me in cash.

noticed many jumped in on 1st week of college like there was form. much like the 1st week of pre-season nfl. teams were playing cupcake games with big spreads. tough to figure.

For me week 1 is historically good as the lines are typically weak, and based more on public perception. Week 2 is when you see teams usually make their biggest improvements of the season, and once again the lines will be more towards what the eyes saw last week.
The heaviest bet game yesterday was the bailout game of BYU vs Arizona with BYU having 61% of the Money (not tickets) on them. Nearly double on that game than Alabama vs USC, and well over double in the Wisky-LSU contest. The second biggest bet game was Clemson and they had 72% of the money on them. Books praised Dabo for not kicking the nail in the coffin FG.
The four biggest games wagered on yesterday, based on actual money, and not ticket counts. The Books went 2-2 on the sides and 3-1 on the totals.
BYU vs Arizona had 21k bets with 61% of the money on BYU and 84% of the money on the Over
Clemson vs Auburn had 14.8k bets with 72% of the money bet on Clemson and 82% of the money on the Over
Alabama vs USC had 12K bets with 69% of the money on Alabama and 65% of the money on the Under
Wisconsin vs LSU had 9.5k bets with 67% of the money on LSU and 59% of the money on the Under

I agree it usually gets tougher until bowl season from week 1 so anytime I don't win it's disappointing.

I think week 2 you can still capitalize on flukes and flat teams though.

Where do you know actual percentage of money? I used to know a site that purported it, but that was years ago, its still very deceptive. If real they could be counting teaser money, parlay money, round robin money any type bet on that team not just single side bets. They would never say how much is bet on a team, not even percentages for single side bets.

I'm curious too doc.
It seemed like the only major book mistake was the bama game though.

It's always easy in retrospect but, man oh man, how easy was that Michigan win over Hawaii? The Rainbows had just played one week earlier in Sydney, Australia, then had to travel across countless time zones to play in The Big House against a revved-up Wolverine squad, and with a 12 est start time. That's 6-7 am on their own body clocks. 63-3! It was a lay up, and yet somehow the $$ came in on Hawaii. Go figure......

2-0 for me, got lucky with BYU.
What I do know is that I get buried week 2, every year. Gonna sit that one out. Patience is way underrated in this game.
