MartinBlank's NCAA Football 2011

[MartinBlank]

2-2 weekend.

Brings my total for the year as follows:

2011 ATS Record: 4-3-1

[MartinBlank]

I like this weekend's card a lot.

And I already locked onto my teams at Bookmaker.

#9. Temple +8

#10. Iowa -4

#11. Iowa State +4.5

#12. Mississippi State +3.5

As always, good luck to everyone!

[wal66]

Ouch!

Really would have rather not seen you on Mississippi St.

Good luck with the card all the same.

[Greyraptor]

Hey Martin! Looking at your picks and I can say that I am with you totally on Iowa State. I wouldn't be one bit surprised if they win the game outright. Like Wal said, I wish I saw you on the other side of the Mississippis State game but I can understand why you went that way and tip my hat to you for going that way. Honestly, never gave the Temple game much thought and I see Iowa covering easily. BOL to you buddy!

[cant call it]

gl on your plays martin
i like iowa to bounce back here

[Brutus84]

Iowa-3 MONEY! Kirksey is the real deal, but they sure lack a great D like some of their other teams. Pitt sucks. LSU wins, but by how many I do not know...

[MartinBlank]

Really liked Iowa State last night, and they came through.

5-4-1 on the season.

Temple and Iowa to come.

[Greyraptor]

Yeah, said I wouldn't be surprised if Iowa State won it outright and even though it didn't look like it in the first half, they got their act together and came through for us!

[MartinBlank]

Temple wins, and gets me to 6-4-1.

[pavyracer]

Good picks Martin. Keep it up!

[Greyraptor]

Temple wins, and gets me to 6-4-1.

Nice pick! Talk to me in three months when basketball season gets underway and I'll be all over Temple.

[MartinBlank]

And Iowa gets me a push.

6-4-2.

60% ATS? Time to quit. Clearly you are very bad at picking ATS

Clearly 60% sucks. But at least I have the stones to make an ATS wager. I don't have to buy points and hide in teasers, now do I?

[Greyraptor]

Time to quit? It is a marathon...not a sprint. Maybe he doesn't get into "God Mode" until week 4. Do football teams that start out 4-2 give up just because they are at 60% (I know that 4-2 is actually 66.66% but you get my meaning)? Nope. Keep up the picks Martin.

[wal66]

Martin I would have been as you should be very happy with 6-4 this weekend. I sucked and limped in with a 5-5 weekend.

[linedrivr]

60% ATS? Time to quit. Clearly you are very bad at picking ATS

why would he quit while hitting 60%? that's a solid win percentage. Especially if he can sustain it over the season which will lead to a solid profit.

[MartinBlank]

I hope everyone is killing their respective book.

I am 6-4-2 on the season. Bad line shopping cost me the Iowa game. I was convinced it was heading north of 4, only to see it drop to 3 by gametime.

This week I waited some.

Pick #13. Georgia -9.5

Pick #14. Army -4

Pick #15. Clemson -2.5

Pick #16. Arizona State -2.5

As always, good luck to everyone!

[Brutus84]

Florida States backup looks atrocious. I have no clue about USC, but I like ASU myself.

hey - at least you didnt count it as a win - which some people here would do...lol

[wal66]

Good luck Martin. I very much like the Georgia game.

I differ on the FSU game even without Manuel under center but I can't say I have anything other than speculation as reasoning which as you well know can be very suspect. I have no action on the game though so while I can think FSU, I can wish you good luck with that play as well.

[Greyraptor]

GL Martin. I am with you on the Clemson game but I am going to wait a bit longer. My book had it at -1.5 just yesterday with still 74% of the bets on Florida State. I may give it until Friday Night to see what happens but if it goes to 3 I will have to grab it.

[MartinBlank]

Thanks guys..

Today I am doing something I only do 2-3 times a season. I am adding a 5th game to my rotation.

Pick #17. San Diego State +10.5 v. Michigan.

As always, best of luck to you guys.

[MartinBlank]

3--2--0 yesterday, making it three consecutive profitable weekends.

Season to date: 9--6--2 (60%).

[MartinBlank]

If there is a positive about this season, I have yet to have a losing weekend.

I looked at my Army play----and that was simply the wrong side. I am not about to say that I had the right side on that play, or the SD State play----I simply didn't adjust my pr numbers. That's on me, the linemakers beat me up on those two.

[cant call it]

Nice start so far buddy, keep up the good work.

[MartinBlank]

Nice start so far buddy, keep up the good work.

Thanks CCI----appreciate it!

[MartinBlank]

Here I go.

I am jumping back into the Notre Dame water. Oyyyy.

Season to date: 9--6--2

Pick #18. Notre Dame -13

Pick #19. Pitt +1.5

Take those early this week.

[cant call it]

Pitt jumped to 2 a 5d.
Gl on your plays. After looking over early lines, I don't feel like pulling the trigger on any games. Think I may take the week off.

Pitt may warrant my ML play. I like the spot for them.

Good luck this week CCI---sometimes taking a week off refuels the batteries.

Good work here so far, Marty.

I think anyone but our pal SSK would be very pleased with your results to date. Clearly he sets a bar that is simply unattainable for most of us.

How's your brother-in-law doing? Still killing it??

Thanks Op---the Goddess of Luck bit his ass this weekend.

He had Toledo +2.5---and that whole extra point fiasco with Syracuse beat him, and today he had New England.

Oh, you will appreciate this argument we had---it highlights his stupidity. He tried telling me that the current Eagles roster (he is an Eagles fan)-----has better WRs---than the 70's Cowboys with Drew Pearson, Golden Richards, Butch Johnson, Tony Hill------and that is excluding Billy Jo Dupree as our TE. He told me, "Golden Richards played for the Redskins"-----Oyyy.

Blasphemer!

As I've said before.....I have a bro-in-law who sounds eerily similar to this one.

Good luck, pal.
