Is VA Tech a Prime Example Of a Square Play?

**Grandmaster B** · 09-06-10, 04:57 PM

any feedback from anyone on this?

**B1GER1C828** · 09-06-10, 04:57 PM

complete opposite actually.

A square would take the better ranked favorite.

I used JJ's thinking in coming up with a play for this game. Never bet on a team with a ***** QB.

I highly dout the 1 point will make a difference...possible...but unlikely

I don't know if you heard, but this game is NOT in Blacksburgh.

**Grandmaster B** · 09-06-10, 05:17 PM

so this game is not actually in Virginia?

neutral site?

oh ok so Im sure some VA Tech fans made the trip...

but the fact that VA Tech is not actually at their home field and people are still betting them has me baffled

A sharp would take the better team

yes my friends its getting UGLY NOW

**pavyracer** · 09-06-10, 07:51 PM

Some of the home fans have already left to beat the traffic. I wonder how a 5 hr drive back home feels.

**Grandmaster B** · 09-06-10, 08:04 PM

ok I understand nobody wants to acknowledge it

I like it--BSU has been getting screwed for years. They are solid and fun to watch.

I must agree

game could have went either way but BSU stepped up under the lights when it REALLY counted...their entire season on the line...they dont want no WAC bowl...they want the big one

but I still feel even after everything that happened people that betting VT tonight were thinking it was free money...a square bet IMO

**alukk** · 09-06-10, 10:49 PM

VT was the square play, dont let them fool you. Lot of people just try to go against the "square" plays thats why many took VT (they really didnt think they were gona win) because they tho Boise was square and that was what squares where playing, people who thinks the books know whos gonna win and they want us to go on a side.

**tony_come** · 09-06-10, 10:51 PM

Boise state will not win bcs national championship game. That's if Boise gets in

**nj1035** · 09-06-10, 10:53 PM

I don't think either team was the square play, did anyone actually watch the game? It could have gone either way, it's not like either team was a clear runaway favorite.

Get over yourselves.

**mtneer1212** · 09-06-10, 11:07 PM

I am rooting for Boise to make the BCS championship game -- it will be the quickest route to a playoff.......

**MasterP10** · 09-06-10, 11:07 PM

Boise was the play, they should never have been underdogs. They had 2 fumbles compared to vt 1, had 105 penalty yards to vt 56, they also outscored them in yards rushing and yards passing. Boise still won the game. Square play was on Vt to answer that question IMO.

this post was very sharp MasterP

I guess Brock is a square??

**goblue12** · 09-06-10, 11:12 PM

Nothing square about betting VT tonight.

Just a tough break at the end.

**MasterP10** · 09-06-10, 11:29 PM

Maybe not taking Vtech plus the points but as a favorite IMO it was not the play. This game was going to come down to the wire so getting points would have been the smarter play especially boise. There was just so much talk on here earlier that boise was the square play and ALL the sharps were on VTECH. And like I was trying to point out before the game that if the sharps liked vt they would have grabbed them at +2.5 +3 not laying points.

Anyway it was a great game, GL on the next one.

Thanks GRANDMASTER congrats on the WIN!
