    Not that it matters, but I believe the SMU game is Friday. Best of luck this year! I'm so excited for the season to start.

    Have been waiting for this thread since January... very happy its here.

    Pags, do you bet everything at Bookmaker? I'm indecisive about moving my bankroll there to take advantage of the early lines... cause I love getting great odds at matchbook. Thanks bud.

    shrax,

    I use strictly bookmaker and matchbook...I make half my plays each week at bookmaker and half at matchbook...in addition to my wagers, I manage money for a group of "investors"...my deal with them is that they get the -110 bets, I get the even money (or better) bets...I take the better numbers, they get the worse numbers...they have never complained...for the sake of posting, I post my bookmaker plays here usually...

    Pags11 my P.O.D for the 30th is LSU-23 I hear that your a pretty good capper for football! It's a pleasure to meet you knowing the fact that I'm great at handicapping football and I met a guy that is great! That will help me probably double my profit for football!

    and actually Illinois was one of my other plays I was researching the other day! I was leaning that way.

    zboiz,

    thanks for stopping by...I appreciate the kind words...I did get a chance to read your write-up and definitely agree that a Les Miles' coached LSU squad is definitely a good bully...glad also to hear that you are leaning to Illinois...

    thanks for posting these pags...i appreciate it.

    good luck on the season buddy

    i know you assign different units on plays, im assuming you are waiting to get a better feel for the teams before making multi-unit plays?

    onthewhat,

    that is correct...no matter how many preseason magazines we read and how much research we do, the beginning of the season is still very unpredictable...I increase my unit size of my plays as the season goes on...

    thanks for the well wishes...best of luck to you this season as well...

    So I guess we can assume that unless you specifically state otherwise all your plays are at -110 and will be graded that way for your official record?

    Absolute best of luck to you, pags. I will be rooting for you.

    dazzez,

    without going into great detail as to how I place wagers for myself and my investors, and mainly for the sake of ease of record keeping, all plays are kept as even money bets...this will be reflected in my record as the season goes on...thanks...

    odu,

    thanks bud...best of luck to you this season as well...

    secfan,

    good to hear, congrats...I'm not sure we will see 10 again in either of those games and the next key number for me was 8.5 so I grabbed them...good luck to you...

    pags,

    brand new here. Look forward to these picks each week. I would ask what people post that helped you leave before, but I think I would rather not know since most people are stupid.

    Hope you get the chance to stay the whole year and thanks for posting your picks.

    Illinois moved to +9 on Bookmaker.

    Hey pags, do you recommend buying Idaho to +28 or is the +27 number good enough?

    Do you see many points in that Memphis game was looking at the under? Of course need a line first...

    onthewhat,

    I noticed that...I'm sure some of it was over the news of the Illinois DE getting injured (as well as WR Cumberland)...next key number in that game is 10, not sure we will see it but I could be wrong...I rarely recommend paying extra juice ever, and this would not be a time...if I played the game at +27, that should tell you what you need to know...

    drluck,

    I'm the last guy you want to ask regarding totals, as I haven't played a total in about five years...I'm not sure either defense is that great, but offenses sometimes sputter in the first game of the year too...GL with what you decide...

    Pags I'm hearing Kentucky looks real bad in practice and scrimmages, what do you think of Louisville at home seeking revenge from last years loss?

    Pags,

    Former lurker who wanted to post and say thanks for the picks.

    What do you think about Utah +3.5? Utah is solid, and RR has absolutely no one on offense at Michigan.

    onthewhat,

    I've heard similiar reports regarding Kentucky...I'm just not sure that I can get interested in laying points in a rivalry game with so many question marks...

    jimmy,

    I really don't see much value right now in Utah...I thought the original line of 6ish was closer to what I think the line should be...does this mean I'd take Michigan at this point?...no...that will just be a game I sit back and watch and learn for future weeks...

    gatorfan,

    thank you very much for that...I will indeed provide a write-up for these picks before week one...best of luck to you this season...
