I do not wish to mislead anyone on this site. Up to this point, I am still fairly novice, but have shown improvement over the last few years. I have put a lot of work into sharpening my skills this offseason. I hope it pays off. I formerly played defensive line for BYU, back when Lavell Edwards was the Head Coach. I only bet college football. My bet units are $25 each. They range from 1-5 units per wager. This thread is primarily for my own records, but I seek and appreciate all feedback and don't take much offense to bold criticism, or even ruthless trollers. Good luck to all this year.

Yeah... it was one of the greatest comebacks of all-time. In fact, it may have been the greatest fukking comeback of all-time as far as costing me coin goes.
I think the line was SMU -1.5.
Anyway, as you know... with four minutes to go in the game, SMU was leading 45-25. BYU fans were leaving the stadium in droves. I was sitting on my sofa talking to my bookie on the telephone... and we were both celebrating, because even though I was going to hit his ass for a sizeable amount, I was the only SMU bet that he was holding.
You know how television announcers always tell you to *stay tuned, because anything can happen*?
On that night, and for maybe the only time in CFB television history, the announcers told all of the viewers to go ahead and change the channel, because the game was over... because there ain't no such thing as the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny.
Well... those cokksuckers were wrong... miracles can happen, especially when you have Jim Fukking McMahon as your QB.

Side Note-1: My bestest friend (SMU O-Lineman) was ejected after pulling Kyle Whittingham's (current Utah HC) helmet off and damn near beating him to death with it.
Side Note-2: Up until that night, BYU was Ofer in Bowl Games.
Yeah... I remember that fukking game, I'm going to spend the rest of eternity in Hell having to watch that fukking thing on replay until time ceases to exist.
