    My strategy for weeknight games

    Fade the public.

    Seriously, that's what I've done the last 3 games. I took Ohio on the moneyline today, and I took Northern Illinois on the moneyline yesterday. The public is HORRIBLE at handicapping these weeknight games, and I think vegas makes a significant ammount of money on them. From here on out, I'm fading the public on weeknights.

    dont bet on them. be smart with your money. anyone who gambles on mac teams during the week needs to find a different hobby. There is so much more things worth putting time & energy into.
    these games are played during the week for a reason. don't be stupid and if you have a gambling problem go get help.

    Fading the public has worked well during the week recently, but would have gotten you buried earlier this season.

    You're on to something. That 3 game trial is surely large enough to assure future success. Did you put in your notice @ work yet??

    How exactly do you know who the public is on? Is there a website?

    covers.com has some pretty accurate consensus trends

    i would put a caveat on this one...find reasons to side with the house on weeknight games or in general especially when it comes to road favorites (except for LSU, Bama, Ok St, Boise) and coinflip games.
