    Am I a complete Idoit?

    seriously thinking about taking the ND ml at +1200. I think they have a shot this game. Obviously being 22point dog I could be dead wrong but what you think?

    ND has no shot to win.

    They got killed by BigTen teams and you think they can beat a solid team from a way better conference?

    UCLA has some fast negros on the team that the ND players won't be able to catch up with.

    This is a bad bet. ND loses.

    Take a look at my big dogs post for today. We got some incredible line moves since I posted these picks on Thursday. Also, there is a 2 pick parlay I just cannot believe.

    Do not take the ML, we all have seen how terrible ND is this year, they may cover the spread this game but will not win.

    Send me your check. I'll give you +2400! Why donate the money to the bookie?

    You should make this bet if you think that if this type of scenario came up 100 times, Notre Dame could win at least 8 of these meetings (100 units theoretically wagered on these 100 meetings, 13 x 8 =104 units returned), an 8-92 record is not too tough to achieve, even as bad ad ND is. Sure the ball would have to bounce your way a generous amount of times....

    The best thing you may have going for you is that opponents of Notre Dame have had several weeks to see and read about just how bad ND is this season, and may have enourmous let downs by now, and vice versa for Notre Dame.

    Bigger upsets have already occured this season, but it doesn't seem people here think this dog is an overlay at 12-1. I have no personal opinion.

    UCLA sucks, but ND sucks more. There is better value elsewhere

    Seriously why would I bet more then $50? this bet wins me $600 so still big wager for me and if lose no big deal.

    last time I bet big ML like this was Fresno St vs USC and that almost hit so dont mind this bet. I appreciate the advice but im sure people would of told Colorado backers last week they were wasting money too.

    nice call....and who cares how much he bets. There is nothing worse or more obnixious than posters who criticize how much someone else bets.

    Curious why do you give a **** how much he bets?

    good call. i wouldn't have played it, maybe with the points, but not the ML. all it takes is a gut-feeling call sometimes to make a good weekend. too bad i didn't have any today.

    PAC10 sucks and is overrated, once you realize that the better off you will be....UCLA got blown out to Utah....oh and how bout your trojans...Stanford....where is that USC banner now?
