Comment: Normally picking Central at home in this most heated Rivalry would be a gimmy, but under Dan Enos, the Chips are a wreck right now, especially at home.

Comment: Neither team has a history of winning ‘the big game’ and this certainly is a big game for both programs. Give the nod to the home team on what will be a very cold and blistery day in NE Ohio.
Picks went 6-1 last week and now stand 65- 17 YTD( I went 7-0 last week his picks went 6-0 )
Here you go if you want to post this
now this is Nicks picks
I have used this resource and I often look past his picks and dis agree
do not confuse My resource as My own
I am very good at selecting His choices
I also have a friend I confine in
so best of Luck
a lot of this is because Unless you are a journalist and lord knows I cant
differeniate between wont and want
count and cant
so Yes I use a lot or most of his write ups - frankly it looks better
he had temple last week winning 54-0
I actually had two bets and temple as best bet
but really had this 35-0 something like that
I bet one way -29 and + 33 I won a 1000 on both sides of it
sorry to mess your board up just dont want to be considered a fraud
he made a pick on ball state last week - I dropped that game
and Had Miami Ohio too close to call -
I actuallly dropped it from board but took at -3 ( glad i did )
so thats what I am doing here .
using his write ups with the ones I agree on - you can view my posts and see last weeks mac plays dating back a few weeks
for now it seems a good way to do this .
Western Michigan +3.5 just looked like the biggest sucker bet in the history of sucker bets. No reason you fumble down inside the 5 yd line like that. Why did they stop throwing the football?
