I'd like to extend a big fat f\*\*k you to Northern Illinois
I think I faded them every week during this bizarre ATS run they've had recently. Cash cow for the public. Now that I'm not gambling, of course, they do this.
N. Illinois coming off a big win over Toledo.Toledo game was a Pick-em and before Toledo game they played a highly regarded(by MAC standards) Ball State team. So N. Illinois was coming off back to backbig games – the last being the game to decide who goes to the leaguechampionship game
Next week (game after Western Michigan) is league championship game. W. Michigan game was the classic trap game.
Sort of saw it coming - still suckered in - teased it down 10 pts. Beat onbackdoor cover.
they screwed me. I kept going against them. They kept screwing me (especially in that ball state game, where my under 73.5 somehow lost), and now I bet them and over live, and nothing
Gentlemen please, I'm not going to throw salt in the wound, but we all should know by now that when the weather is that cold, the ball is hard as a rock, making it both difficult to throw and difficult to catch. Add windy conditions to the mix and you have a recipe for a lower than normal score. The under should have been obvious. Just some food for thought going into the colder times of football. Also if you have the under, laying 35 points is hard to do. Moving forward, let's think a little more before we pull the trigger.
Like I posted last night, I hope hope hope that Fresno State passes them in the BCS standings, as Northern Illinois deserves absolutely nothing after there performance last night. My two least favorite teams are Rice and Northern Illinois, and both for the same reasons.
The coaching decisions made by Northern Illinois were pathetic. They had a quarterback who ran for over 200 yards in the first half, so what do they do in the 2nd half, make the decision to run the fcuking ball up the middle continuously, never adjusting for the fact that Western Michigan was stacking the line against it.
They FCUKED ME, so now it is time for the BSC to FCUK THEM!
NIU, my alma matter, just coasted this game. Up 20-7 at half, Lynch padded his numbers then sat.
Think Toledo and Ball State took a toll.
Don't think they will end up in top bowl game like last year.
