    I don't think I've ever done this...
    I have been here 3 plus years, and I don't ever recall throwing up a thread like this.

    Oh well. I am wagering $1150 on Toledo -3 (-115 @ Bookmaker).

    I love Toledo tonight. Absolutely love them.

    If I lose, there will be no chasing. If I win, there won't even be a second bet.

    If I lose---feel free to bust my balls about it. I will return to take my beating, and I'll probably gloat some if I win. Either way this is going to be fun.

    This is way out of character for me. I am up just a tad on the season, but I just love this game.

    I know alot of you guys like they "whys" behind a selection, so I'll give mine.

    Toledo can score, and Air Force can't stop anyone.

    Toledo has put up big numbers----the 37 against Temple may be the most impressive on their resume. Temple is actually a pretty good defensive football team, and Toledo move the ball basically at will on them.
    Toledo has scored more than 36 points in 8 of their games. They threw up 60 plus, twice.

    Let's look at Air Force's wins.

    Not a single win over a team with a winning record. Not one.
    New Mexico (1-11)
    Army (3-9)
    Tennessee State (5-6 IN 1-AA)
    South Dakota (5-6 in 1-AA)
    UNLV (2-10)
    Colorado State (3-9)

    Well, that's that. I'll be back later.

            Two words:

            Brandon Lang.

            Two more though:

            Good luck.

              I couldn't get over that 54% hump. I was getting lucky with my wins, and I didn't like that.

              I use power number sets to handicap, and my in-season adjustments sucked this year. I need some serious tweeking.

              I used a conference strength of schedule number---and it clearly was off.

                7-0 Rockets.

                Lots and lots and lots of football left, but it's good to get up early.

                    GL Martin. I think you'll be good. I played the over on this one myself. As I'm watching it I can see it getting away from AF in a hurry.

                      For some reason every time I see Toledo play, I wonder how their practices go. I know the 1st team offense doesn't go against the 1st team defense very often, but holy fukk it must be discouraging for that defense when they do.

                        This is some crazy offense performances.

                        They may top 140 combined.

                            All I can do is laugh at that.

                            That is why they call it gambling.

                            No chase for me, that is all she wrote.

                            Oyyyy.

                            Seriously. He went for 2?

                                                Seriously these two teams are so shitty. They don't play real football, they just try to outscore each other with no defense. These games are always a coin flip and you are better wagering on the total. I couldn't decide on this one so I stayed away. Hope your luck is better next time.

                                                  I was wrong, and I can live with it.

                                                  And, I'll be honest----when it hit 14-0, and 21-7----I was feeling pretty good.

                                                  It's gambling. Lesson learned.

                                                    That sucks man, I was on Toledo last night too...it hurts to be covering pretty much the entire game and then lose it all in the last minute... just goes to show, no matter how much you like a play or how good it looks, if Lang is on the pick...it will find a way to lose.

                                                        There is nobody on earth who can pick losers as well as Lang............

                                                        Why everyone believes in the impossible though is pretty fukkin funny................Black Majic my asss!!!!
