Good Luck today Biff. I think "Beetleman" wishes he hadn't called those time outs with 30 seconds left. Ugh. He had the momentum - why not just go to OT?

i know. i'm genuinely sad and the Badgers aren't even my team. a real missed opportunity, particularly with Sooner losing.
4-2 +3.91u. should've played Packers TT over rather than the chalk. there was no saving Titans, that was just a bad pick.

Biff... love your thread bro. You're a good capper. But just curious, what led you to take the Titans?

thanks, fecgp40, i appreciate that. the Titans were clearly a terrible pick, the one really bad pick i had on the day (should've taken Pack TT over rather than Pack, but that was at least defensible). a big part part of my mistake was expecting Chris Johnson to have a good game off the bye week against Texans defense that allowed 4.6 YPC coming in and has seemed vulnerable since Mario Williams' injury. i also thought that the Titan defense would do well against Schaub, given that they have done well against him historically in Tennessee, were allowing only 5.8 YPA, and the Texan offense has struggled the last couple of weeks without Andre Johnson. i was just wrong, in part because i expected the Titan to come out of the bye and run the ball well, something they haven't done well all year. that was a basic principles mistake (expecting a team to do something that they had not done to date).

Nice call on this one Biff. Just wish I would have seen it before heading downtown. Yes I went to the bore fest, and yes we bet the Clowns -3. We thought we had it with 1:05 left. But of course Seattle had to get a penalty so the Clowns could just take a knee. Oh well, I'll take a push over a loss any day. At least the tailgait partying was a blast! And of course the Win.

thanks, pal. i got sold my tickets to this game to someone at work, i'm sure that the tailgating was fun, but it was a predictable Browns home game. they don't have the guns this season to win a high-scoring game, hence running Hardesty 33 times against one of the best rush defenses in the league. next season should be better in that regard. oh well, i'm really glad that they won but bummed for people like you with Browns -3. two blocked FGs, man that sucked.

yep, i agree, buck. Houston will want to put on a show for the weeknight audience (even though not nationally televised, they'll get a nice spot in sportscenter highlights). i capped this at 59-27, but this way, 50-20 is still a winner. BOL to you tonight.

ok Right on bro. I also got Miami - 13.5, and Houston - 27.5 tonight. Being a Miami fan I'm very wary of betting on my team, but it looks like Miami finally has a real coach and is playing with heart. We'll see what happens.

i love the U. pretty rare here in Cleveland, and Ohio State is my main team, but i've always had a soft spot for the Canes. wife and i go to South Beach every year (going down next Friday, actually). i'm in a big money CFB pool where you have to pick the 11 top tv games ATS and assigned confidence points to your top 5. i'm on Canes in that, so definitely rooting for them tonight. BOL with your plays.

thanks, Rick! Wisky at the Shoe this weekend. i don't care what the line movement says, and i never bet against OSU, but Wisky should beat the snot out of the Buckeyes, unfortunately.

Wow... a Buckeye fan with a soft spot for the Canes? U are a rare bird my friend. Good stuff. I guess I don't need to say most of us Miami fans are still bitter about 2001... you know what I mean. LOL. On a different note, is it just me, or is this week's card really tough? I don't like very many games. I found myself doing a couple of 5 team/13pt teasers, which for some reason have been cashing for me lately more than straight bets. I hope I'm not going to the well one time too many.

yeah, Canes not so popular up here, so people give me strange looks when i say that i've always liked them. what's really funny is that the DB who got the penalty against Gamble at the end in the NCG between U-OSU has the same name, first and last, as my dad, just spelling a little differently. that was one of the greatest moments of my life (don't mean to be insensitive, i know that it sucked for you). Golden is an outstanding coach, he will bring back the glory.
i don't like a ton of games myself, but i've been way busy at work so have only capped about 15. current leans:
K State
Michigan State
UGA
Iowa
Okie State
Arky
Texas
Okie State/Baylor over
Wisky/OSU under
UNL/MSU under
Clemson/GT over
Stanford/USC over
