Cfb 2011-12

[BiffTFinancial]

I want to update my CFB record as I miss posted my second Iowa St pick wrong and put it down as a lose. I had Iowa St getting the points. In the night games I had Stan -9.5 and Ok St. Having no Internet sucks, thank god for my iPhone. CFB: 9-3-1 NFL: 0-0

nice work.

Wow, took a beating today.


NFL: 1-4

Wow, took a beating today. NFL: 1-4

sorry to hear that. thought you had both GB/CAR over and Jets -9, i had you 2-3.

i know when i've gotten lucky, walking away from tonight's game. over tempting, but looks as if there's some steam on the under.

Sorry, 2-4. I also grabbed NE/SD Under. I was reading off my spreadsheet, somehow forgot to put NYJ on there. Glad you brought it up, that could have messed with my money lol.

I didn't think Brady would be able to put it together again this week. Gues that is what I get for betting against Brady.

I split a 1 unit 4 team parlay with a friend. Just need Philly -3 to come in. Before anyone says it, I am aware of how much a sucker bet parlays are, we usually like to do one after a good weekend at a local dog track. That would be a good way to end an overall good week. I will post my final record and my unit changes in a bit.


PS: Biff, I'm sure you know what happened that hasn't happened in 8 years, right?

yeah, Ohio State fell out of the Top 25 for the first time in 8 years. i like Fickell, but he's going to have to turn things over to Braxton Miller if he wants to keep this job long-term. if he doesn't, well, what happens the rest of the season is on him. i don't have a problem with rotating Bauserman and Miller, but after Saturday, Miller should get at least half the touches. my expectations for this season were low, particularly because i like Wisconsin a lot this year. at the moment, they are the only BCS caliber team in the Big Ten, although UNL has potential.

Yeah, Wiscy and Nebraska are really the only two teams that the Big Ten has this year. Michigan and MSU could be good teams, but they both have some major issues to get resolved if they wantto contend. If Michigan can get constant play out of Robinson and can step up on D, they may be able to hang with the big boys this year. I think they really need to try to mimic Auburn from last year. Score on just about every drive if possible and the defense can bend, but not break. It will be interesting to see how they perform in conference play.

[BiffTFinancial]

early leans - lotta chalk and overs. feels like trouble, but plays like that have done pretty well the first few weeks:

Nebraska/Wyoming over 59
UNC/Ga Tech over 59
NC State/Cincy over 60'
Okie State/A&M over 69
WMU/Illinois over 53'
LSU -5'
A&M -4
Clemson -1'
SDSU +10'
Temple +9
Ohio U +4'

I don't know if I can pull the trigger on the over in the ATM game, something tells me it's going to be lower scoring game than people might expect. I think it will end up around 28-24 ATM but you probably know better than me BOL

don't know why i would know better than you, pal. i do think that A&M will try to control the ball early on to slow OSU's tempo. A&M can play either way, but OSU definitely would prefer an up tempo game. for what it's worth, the over is probably my smallest lean, as i have it going over by less than a TD, but i have A&M winning by two scores, so i'm more likely to play A&M ATS (don't like playing side and total same game). the fact that i like A&M so much did cause me to reduce my projected total. that said, i think that a bet on the under would be lunacy (kind of like the over in LSU-MSU, still don't understand that was so popular).

[BigDan]

already got down on that unc/gtech over .......like most those totals, certainly wouldnt play the other way in any of them. not sure about the illini or am/okie st totals but like i said i wouldnt go other way.

im sure im in the vast minority but i really dont like LSU this week, not saying im trying to play wvu either tho.


All ive played so far...

unc/gtech ov

Ore st-2.5

uva-3


kinda tough week, have wyo/neb ov wrote down but havnt played it yet, glad to see you like it.....lean ucf as im not sure byu can score against what is a very tough defense, not thrilled about playing against byu in provo tho. want to play ND again but 7 might be a little to much, might look to tease them even tho i never tease college fb, just think they superior to pitt in about every way, if you could just trust nd not to make the ignorant mistakes they would be a easy play...

been busy as hell lately but it nice to see when i get on that you are crushing it brother, keep up the great work...

what's up, Big Dan? pretty sure i will be on NC/GT and UNL/WYO overs. liking A&M more than the over, i think. like your UVA play, too. i don't like to tease either, feels like a chase from the start when there are so many options. just a little nervous that i keep liking chalk and overs, but has been good so far.

Friday Aussie Rules

On to the Preliminary Finals in Australia. Two good matchups, but really, we all know they're more or less a formality – a prelude – to the massive Collingwood-Geelong Grand Final. Nonetheless, they should be entertaining and they do, afterall, come with point spreads.

Collingwood -23' (Friday 5:45am). Hawthorn is ever so close to being an elite team. But they're still not Collingwood. And what's worse, for this matchup, they lack the style to ugly up the match and force the Pies into a 12.10 type win. Think Arsenal playing Barca in the CL – Arse is a high quality side, but a side incapable of playing the style needed to beat Barca over 180 minutes. The two sides played in Week 15, and the Pies won by 41 (15.16 kicking, too). I think the Collingwood runs out comfortable winners in this one. I expect it to be close at half, with Collingwood taking control of the match in the 3rd period, and eventually winning by 6+ goals. Perhaps next year for the Hawks.

SEASON TO DATE
Aussie Rules: 24-10
Soccer: 19-15-2
Rugby: 3-3
CFL: 1-3
High School: 1-1

NCST/GT Over 58
Army/Ball St Under 50.5
Penn St/EMU- Under 45.5
Georgia -9
Miami Oh -4
Arkansas +12
Nev/TT Under 65.5
Fresno/Idaho Over
Troy -12
UCLA +5.5
Southern Miss +3.5



I agree, I have too many games I love this week, and that kinda worries me. This is the list I am trying to trim down. Any thought Biff?

NCST/GT Over 58 Army/Ball St Under 50.5 Penn St/EMU- Under 45.5 Georgia -9 Miami Oh -4 Arkansas +12 Nev/TT Under 65.5 Fresno/Idaho Over Troy -12 UCLA +5.5 Southern Miss +3.5 I agree, I have too many games I love this week, and that kinda worries me. This is the list I am trying to trim down. Any thought Biff?

obviously, i like the NC/GT over a lot. PSU/EMU under looks very solid also, and i took Arky +12 in all of my pools. UGA also should be solid, Ole Miss is in complete disarray (did you see that article about them scaling back their offense?). like Miami-OH, although i didn't cap that game; same with Army/Ball St under. did not cap Nev/TT or Fresno/Idaho, so no read on those totals, although i might take a look tonight simply because i like capping totals. matter of fact, i'll run all of these totals through my spreadsheet tonight and see what i get. didn't cap Troy game.

the two that i don't agree with are the last two. UVA is one of my final four leans that i am considering (UNL/Wyoming over, LSU, UVA, SDSU), and i would be really reluctant to back UCLA right now, plus Corvallis is a tough place to play and Oregon State has a better coach.

biff! me and my buddy have been following for the past couple weeks, we're excited to continue seeing your picks.. it always makes us feel good when you're on the same teams that we like. how has everything been since bowl season my man?

[YOUNGBUCK]

Biff u like UGA/ND ml parlay pays pretty good

hey, terrortwylight, good to see you. things are great, just hoping to keep things moving in the right direction. glad to hear that we're in agreement on some picks and you can always feel free to post your leans/picks/whatever here. now is the hardest part of the week. the work is done and the only way to make noon Saturday get here quicker is booze.

[BiffTFinancial]

Biff u like UGA/ND ml parlay pays pretty good

i don't play a lot of parlays, but you're right - that one looks solid and pays about -128 based upon my quick calculation. don't want to use the l-word, but i will say that i definitely see UGA and ND winning straight up this weekend. if UGA loses, Richt can leave town now, and ND is much better than Pitt. you are essentially backing two teams and coaches who really need this game.

zulu - fyi, RAS has released a play on the Nevada/TT under. dropped it 3 points.

Hey Biff,

Pardon my ignorance, but what does TT stand for?

Hey Biff, Pardon my ignorance, but what does TT stand for?

TT = team total

Good luck Biff rolling with the Wolf Pack +8 tonight myself, hope we both cash. Like some of your Saturday plays but havent looked into card much myself yet. Hope to get time tonight.
