    I'm on Florida St. and Tech with the spreads so like those picks...No real opinions on the others. Although I would recommend playing Texas and I am on them myself. GL to you Ralphie as we are not against eachother on any

    I told my buddy a few weeks ago that after Nebraska, Oklahoma St. and Texas that this "4-0" mizzou team would be 4-3. They are a bunch of busters. I will most likely be playing texas big but since its late at night I will most likely see how Oklahoma and the rest of the bets do. I think Boise St. first half is a great play. It will be under -14.

    for sure, I was on Nebraska two weeks ago, and on Ok. St. last week. Mizzou was even more overrated at 4-0 than LSU or Auburn (and they were both highly overrated). They have no defense, and a fair offense. However they wont be putting up too many points on Texas, and Texas should score at will most of the game

    Why not tease the total to a favorable OVER play in the Tulsa game??

    I can't stand not getting paid the day my initial plays go down.

    I dont really like the total, I lean over sure, but who doesnt? I really think FSU and Tulsa win. I will probably just stick to my original tulsa play. I love that Lang is on UTEP, makes me feel that much more confident.

    "I can't stand not getting paid the day my initial plays go down." what does this mean?

    I don't like to have a parlay with plays that happen on different days. Its really just a preference of mine.

    one reason I like my local bookie is because he offers parlays and teasers with open spots. I kill them all the time. Like right now I have Miss. St. -4 (win) Denver Broncos +4 (win) and 2 open spots. 100 pays 1,000. So now I cant just sit back and wait for a favorite play or some easy 2nd half lines.

    That's sweet. Vegas wouldn't ever offer something that good. I would kill those every Sunday in the NFL. 2nd Half Lines are my bread and Butter. I dont post them b/c I watch games at my Sportsbook, and jump on easy lines. I had Jets UNDER 17, and Patriots -1.5 2nd Half last Sun. Easy money.

    No system per say, just look for value. Some times in a 2nd half you can get tons of points worth of value. For example I look to get over ten points of value. Heres an example:

    If Bama is down 7 points going into the half as a 25 point favorite (they came out flat in the first half) and the 2nd half line is Bama -13. That means they only have to win the game by a touchdown. So a -25 point spread just went to a -6. So you just got 19 points of value. Thats what I look for, tons of value from the original spread.

    thanks for the info. I still remember in Ncaa basketball when duke was playing some team and was beating them by 30 or so. The 2nd half line was Duke -5 or -6. I took Duke for the 2nd half and they lost. I thought that they would keep up the intensity but 1 thing I didn't think about is that these teams are looking at the total score on the scoreboard. They aren't looking at the 2nd half score. So if Duke lets up and puts in 2nd team, it wont matter as long as they win big. Boy was i pissed at Duke!!!!!!!

    I'm not that high on Texas. Think they are living off of reputation more than anything right now. While I have no interest in their game this week, if forced to select it, I would take Mizzou and the points. The Texas offense just hasn't been in sink. Mizzou has lost 2 straight but Gabbert has played both those games with basically 1 leg. He hasn't been able to scramble or move at all. I think Mizzou hangs tough and covers this one. GL with what you decide.
