    Picks from Indy

    I have been wanting to start a thread on sbr for a while to see what I can do when there is actually a public record of my bets.

    This is a personal challenge for myself and I don't claim to be a genius, but I do expect to beat my book.

    I will confirm my first pick tomorrow afternoon.

    Thx Hill good luck to you too.

    Well here we go

    Friday night UNLV +8 1 UNIT


    Saturday 3:30. ECU +7.5 2 UNITS
    i am afraid the line will move to 7 by kick off. I am booking it now.

    I will post noon games etc. Well in advance.

    I am not really sure what I just witnessed. Both schools and the refs were awful. I will gladly take a push out of that mess.

    The noon games tomorrow don't look great. I am going to put one unit on Wake +27.7 because I think FSU and EJ Manuel are over rated. I am willing to risk a unit to be proven wrong.

    Cal and UL Monroe seem like the right side but I want to see if sharp money moves the line late.

    Saturday at Noon
    Wake Forrest +27.5 (1 Unit) Locked

    Saturday at 3:30
    ECU +7.5 (2 Units) Locked

    Record 0-0-1

    Well I want to thank EJ Manuel and FSU in advance for proving me wrong. FSU is much better than I thought and that D Line is for real. The other 2 game I will wait to comment on.

    Here are more games:

    Saturday at Noon
    Wake Forrest +27.5 (1 Unit) Locked Loss
    Pitt +10(1 Unit) Locked Win
    Cal +18 (1 Unit) Locked Win

    Saturday at 3:30
    ECU +7.5 (2 Units) Locked Based Completely on Line Movement just like my Pitt play
    Penn St -6 (2 units) Locked Penn State wakes up today and wins by 3 TDs.
    Louisville -3.5 (1 unit) Locked
    Alabama -20.5 (1 Unit) Locked I hate big public favorites but Nick Saban is the best in the business and John L is the worst.

    Saturday at 6
    Tenn -3 (1 Units) Locked Dooley worries me otherwise this would be a much bigger play, but I think the streak ends tonight.

    Record 2-1-1

    I am from INDY too, bro. Great start to the thread!

    really like the TCU pick tomorrow. VA will not be able to run at all on TCU, so it should be lopsided.

    Where you at in INDY?

    Thanks. Hopefully it keeps going well. The lines seem a little sharper this week, but I think TCU will shut down VA too.

    I am just south of Broad Ripple. What part of town are you from?

    I like GT -14 vs the U. Miamis inexperience at D line is no beuno against GT. I also like the under. PaulJo's ball control will eat up all the clock. loooooooong drives. I bought up to 62.

    How you guys feelin' about ND tonight? I really like them in this spot, and they are IMO slightly under valued bc of Mich taking the last 3. But i feel like Alabama exposed some glaring offensive deficiencies, that ND can also exploit. I want to go big, but have honestly been burned by this very game 2 years running. I want to go BIG on ND -6 and the UNDER. talk me off the ledge, please.

    I can admit that I don't think clearly when it comes to ND because I am "that guy" when it comes to my Irish, but if I were to bet the game I think we cover. The only things that scare me are that freshman monster TE for Mich keeping drives alive with big time 3rd down receptions and Denard's feet obviously.

    As an objective sports bettor, I think staying away is the best move. ND should win by 21+ but for some reason they never do. Even if ND wins by a TD its to much a sweat I think.

    in all honesty I think all the prime time lines are sharp tonight. The only ones that I see value in are Oregon at home and Rutgers on the road.

    Oregon is the fastest team in the country and Autzen is a true advantage. Rich Rod will get out coached and D Thomas will be in beast mode.

    Rutgers because I will kick the dead horse that is John L Smith until its not fun anymore. Which may never happen. He is the only coach in football that should add +3 to his teams line every game.

    Yeah i don't blame you if you don't ride along with Idaho lol. I am about 50/50 line movement and opinion. That one is 100% line movement.

    By the way Ale Emporium is my favorite football spot and I used to live up at 86th & ditch in Reflections. I will have to check out Moe & Johnnys.

    Well, PSU hung in there and got it done. I didn't expect them to put up more than 21 vs temple. We are looking good the rest of the way. Need the vandals and Ball State to stay hungry.

    The late games are really sharp as I mentioned before. I will most likely make plays on UNLV and Oregon but those are not for sure.

    Have fun watching the big games and GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    BIG win for Nd. loved every minute of it.

    Got backdoored on an FSU cover, but hit USC, kstate, and Georgia.

    but dollars and cents are just dollars and cents. having my 2 teams (ND and FSU) get top 25 wins.....PRICELESS.

    great job with the capping today, K3! I will surely be checking back in with you.

    do you have any plays for NFL tomorrow?

    I am so happy about the Irish. 4-0 feels good. I do bet the NFL but, I wouldn't feel right claiming to know what i am doing. The NFL is ridiculously hard for some reason. I would love to know what you think about tomorrow though. I went 8-4 in CFB last week and 0-5 in the NFL. Not sure where the disconnect is.

    Keep it rolling...

    Books spend much more time on the NFL so the lines are tight as hell. I do better in college than the NFL as well. It's hard for me to get in the flow of the NFL game and what to expect from each team. There's so much parity that it's difficult for me to know who matches up well with who. I also spend much more time looking at college games and studying many teams. Maybe you're like me and don't put a lot of time/effort into the NFL?

    Saints (-9.5) Drew Brees is pissed and his defense finally doesn't have to worry about a dual threat QB. GL

    I think my problem is that I just dont like the NFL and have no passion for it. You are probably right, I dont put as much effort into it. I also dont pay attention week to week the way i do to CFB. The lines are unbelievably accurate too. I will gladly post NFL picks as long it is clear that it is only or fun.
