          For some reason I really like Miami-3 as my strongest play. When the lines came out I liked it. Miami lost their bowl game last year so that a 60% ATS edge there. Their SOS is much higher. Now I can't get that song out of my head from the 30for30 show. It's all about the U!!!

            I like Miami, but I dont trust them. When they are supposed to show up, they leave you out to dry. I'll pass.

                  Four ML Wagers

                  These are very samll wagers that I made myself, and that have nothing to do with the major wagers that I make with my group. I took $1000.00 mad money and make thses wagers. Just $100.00 a wager so far:

                  Utah +155
                  UNC +125
                  Temple +150
                  Kentucky +240

                  I would have taken Boston College +300, but I never wager on or against USC, my alma mater, and I do not want to break that rule now, even if it is just for drink money.

                  I still have $600.00 left in my mad money account. I'll find a way to blow it.

                              Too many favorites for a top 5 Bowl list, the best bowl bets are almost always dogs.

                              Without delving too deeply, my top 3:

                              1 - LSU ML
                              2 - Boston College +9
                              3 - UCF ML

                              I like a bunch more, but don't have two clear-cut that I would definitively rank 4-5. I will say that I almost certainly will not be playing any other favorites besides Alabama. All the other bowls are either dog or pass for me.

                                    UCF is way too risky of a bet. Conference USA is a joke. My flag football team can go .500 and To bet against Coach Carrol is a mistake my friend. I like LSU all day though.

                                      Rutgers hasn't beaten anyone all year (at least UCF beat Houston) and USC couldn't care less about a minor bowl while BC will be psyched.

                                      (not to mention that ACC Bowl dogs are 25-8-1 ATS since 2000 )

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                                                          1. Georgia -7. The funnest thing to do in Sheveport is pack your bags and find a way out. Texas A&M gets a head start on UGA and leaves at halftime.

                                                          2. Miami -3. Slow white Wisconsin vs. fast atheletic black Miami. I think I'll go with Miami.

                                                          3. Northwestern +7 vs. Auburn. Northwestern tricks Auburn by making them think they are actually from the northwest. Where the hell are they from anyway? Seattle?

                                                          4. Alabama -5. Boy there are going to be some women in Alabama beaten if the Tide doesn't win. Most of these players have sisters and will band together to protect them. Alabama rolls.

                                                          5. Wyoming moneyline. I have a hot tip on this game, plus I need it to boost my average.

                                                          6. UNC +3 UNC has prettier colors. I'm going with them.

                                                          7. Cincinnatti +10.5 vs. Florida. It's rare that you get the better team and 10 points. Tebow will be auditioning for his new NFL team and we'll get to see right out of the gate how he'll do. Looks like Florida finally plays a strong out of conference opponent. However, the Bengals should beat them handedly.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?
