One Thing We Learned This Week Guys
never lay big road chalk unless you're dealing with a super dependable team like LSU or Stanford
we had West Virginia and Arkansas fail miserably to cover 2 spreads in games that they should have won by about 24 points each. Hell UCF lost outright to arguably the worst team in the entire country (UAB). Never again road chalk unless it's LSU, Boise, Stanford, etc...

Define "dependable". Your rule is completely arbitrary...
Nothing new, its not the big chalk, its the timing on the schedule and the fact those teams were playing on the road and semi-late in the season.
Brahma you looking like you were right about Stanford... I apologize sir

Right. And when Stanford goes on the road to face Oregon State and USC in the next two weeks and are undoubtedly heavy road chalk, they'll be good bets because they looked unstoppable vs their soft first half opponents? No...
to be fair, USC and ASU are quality opponents. I don't expect Stanford to cover both those games (although it wouldn't surprise me at all)
and I wasn't saying that every road chalk with the unstoppable teams is a great play, it just depends on the situation. My point of this thread is that big road chalk with decent teams is a recipe for failure...never again
i learned that air force is a pain in the ass the way they run the clock and play the option/lateral bs run game. you cannot cap that team.
also learned wilson is an overrated bum with zero clutchness that folds on the big stage and wisco was way overrated taking on garbage big 10 opponents
