I'm tailing you Urban.....
No more negative posts.....Comment -
I hope that is the case, as I would like to keep the thread focused only on football related things. If you care to antagonize me elsewhere no problem, as I can handle that, but this happens to be one of the few threads on the forum that is focused on college football without the bullshit that goes into other year long threads.
Thank you!Last edited by Urbanwildlife; 11-14-13, 12:39 AM.Comment -
TOUCHDOWN BALL STATE!

Gracias amigo!
Looks like it is going to be an entertaining game!

From a strong recommendation of another poster here on the forum, I placed a NBA play, which is my first and probably my last, as I have no interest in playing the NBA. Lets see what happens!

TD Ball St! Would love more points by them this half to hit my progressives!Comment -
As I have stated numerous times, these Tuesday and Wednesday night games, should only be played for entertainment reasons, and with caution. This game with Northern Illinois/Ball State is a little different, as both of these teams are strong teams, however, with that being said, the only way I would play these games is through "in game progress wagering."Comment -
Urb.... are clemson -10.5 and Tulsa +13 good to go for tomorrow?Comment -
Any leans on the O/U of those 2 games: Clemson/G. tech 59 or Tulsa/Marshall 61? Trying to get some of that money back on Thursday...but if there arent any plays than i will wait until SaturdayComment -
Patience is the key to making money in this game, as it is all about what type of risk you want to take. Clemson over might be a call, but as I stated earlier, over/unders is difficult for me to judge.Comment -

As I stated yesterday, for those of you who send private messages to me, the chances of me responding over the weekend will be slim, as I am on my way to my other home in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to do some marlin and yellowfin tuna fishing, and to party my ass off like usual with the Mexicana senoritas.
See you are the pay window on Saturday from the across the miles!

Fcuking Ball State!
First play on the possession of Northern Illinois they give up a long touchdown off a short pass.

Ball State needs to go to a school that teaches tackling, pathetic start to the 2nd half because of it.
Do these coaches still teach the concept of tackling, and using your arms to wrap around the person carrying the ball? Think about it, as you rarely see it happen, as it is all about putting only the shoulder on the guy, trying to cut his legs off from underneath him, but never using the arms to wrap him up. I am very impressed though by the tackling of Northern Illinois, as they possibly tackle better than anyone I have seen this year.
What the fcuk is the Head Coach for Ball State thinking, trying to run the ball against a stacked line of Northern Illinois that they have not been able to run against all night in critical short yardage situations. If Ball State does not win this game, it is one hundred percent because of the decisions of its Head Coach.
Took a asskicking tonight in the 4th quarter. Will come back strong on Saturday!
One note to future players on Ball State:
If they are going up against a passing team, you will find yourself going to the pay window, as there pass defense is beyond brutal, providing the team that is playing them has any type of defense, as Ball State does have a good short passing game, and a good running back.Last edited by Urbanwildlife; 11-14-13, 12:18 AM.Comment -

Urban, loving the picks man...as always tailing most of them.
Only one I am a little worried about is Aub/Georgia...w/ UGA off a bye week (Appalachian State pretty much a bye), Gurley set to start, a decent UGA rush defense, and a lack of attempting to pass by Auburn the last couple games I see this being a very tight game. What's your take?
Regarding UH/Louisville...after studying these teams last night the one considerable advantage I could find was the fairly significant gap in both team's time of possession. Louisville is averaging about 34 min-34:30 min while UH is barely ekeing out 25 min (one of the lowest in FBS).
UH's main advantage this year has been its positive turnover margin (#1 in FBS) however Louisville is ranked 4th. That said, who Louisville has faced this year has been a joke (their strength of schedule one of weakest in the FBS) so all their positive stats should be taken with a grain of salt.
The most I could see Louisville winning this is by 14 and that's ONLY if they're playing lights out....anything above 14 is a freebie for UH.
One thing to take into consideration is that both UH and Louisville are still fighting for the #1 spot in the AAC (both praying that UCF loses one of their upcoming games) as both are currently tied for 2nd.
UCF/Temple is another game where I feel the books are giving too much respect to the home team (Louisville being the other) as Temple is only a 16.5 dog. When Louisville came to Temple they were 33 point dogs! And Louisville LOST to UCF. Yes I know Temple has been playing pretty good these last 3 or 4 games but that doesn't justify being a 2 TD dog to a UCF team that is not only more athletic than them but they're also fighting to play in a BCS bowl! If UCF is playing at 75% of their potential they should win by at minimum 20-21 pts.
FL ATL/ So Miss....something to consider...FL ATL can still make it to a bowl game IF they win their last 3 games. Was reading that their old coach (not the pothead) stopped by practice recently to motivate them, but they're already amped up.
Another thing to note is that FAU has a GREAT defense. Think their pass D is only allowing 170 yds and their rush D is only allowing 195 yds. This vs one of the worst winless FBS schools I've ever seen...(So. Miss that is)
Wisconsin/Indiana....looking over Wisconsin' stats/watching their highlights is truly amazing. It's almost like finding a diamond in the rough as Wisconsin gets absolutely ZERO love from the BCS and/or the blabbering heads at ESPN. In my opinion Wisconsin is a top 5 team HANDS DOWN. Think they got robbed at ASU and I think they could have won that game v. OSU. This team is really balanced both offensively and defensively. Playing IN Madison vs. Indiana (a team they beat 83-20 in 2010...yes 83!...59-7 in 2011...and 62-14 in 2012) should be a cakewalk considering Indiana plays NO defense and has the ball for only 23 minutes a game (WORST time of possession in FBS).
MSU/Braska...I see Mich State ekeing out a win over Braska. Sure Braska has owned MSU these past couple years...BUT the score of those games has gotten closer and closer. MSU off a bye week is enough to convince me they will come prepared for whatever Braska throws at them. Add to that Martinez ain't starting (MSU has had trouble with him in past) and this will result in a 9-1 MSU.
All I've got for right now...Have a great time in PV man... the Pacific side of Mexico is fn beautiful.Last edited by TexasJayhawk; 11-14-13, 02:57 AM.Comment -

@ TexasJayhawk,
Super write up my friend, and definitely on par with the write up that PivotPoint did on the University Of Houston/Louisville game. I am sure he will not mind me posting the link here, so here it is. I agree with everything you shared with us, an excellent job done!
You are in Texas, so Puerto Vallarta is just a short flight away, so come on and enjoy the party, and the trophy marlin and yellowfin tuna fishing. Only thing you have to do is get here, as the rest is on me, so take advantage of my offer! I am being serious.
Just want to say again, thank you to everyone for taking the time to share your thoughts and opinions, and for keeping the thread focused on college football, as it is very much appreciated. It is one of the few threads that has not been destroyed with foolishness.
