T's 2012 CFB Thread

[trendon]

I figure I have been here long enough to start one of my own threads. At the very least, it will increase my participation and any feedback is not only welcome but greatly appreciated.

Last year (documented on covers under the same username as here) I went 100-63-2. Obviously, I'd love to repeat that but 61.35% ain't happening again.

All plays are static, I will sometimes post my reason, and - finally - good luck to me, you, and anyone else you know that is in the fight against the books.

Thursday: [134] VANDERBILT +7-110


If I have a few good days in MLB, I may even play the moneyline. On top of liking Vanderbilt simply because they bring back so much talent on the offensive side, that line hasn't moved in weeks even though you know that almost everyone looks at this and says, "USC will kill them!"


I hope not.

Good luck!

Lean vandy, but no play for me...

I don't think SC will kill, Vandy really finished the season well last year and return a lot of offensive talent. However, SC is better than them so if the Gamecocks can shut them down offensively, Shaw and Lattimore will go to work and it would get ugly.

[301] TOWSON +7-110

[147] MINNESOTA U -9½-110
[313] EAST WASHINGTON +5½-110
[315] NORTHERN ARIZONA +25-110

[trendon]

Think I went 2-5 (I will double-check later). Accurate or not, a lovely start! I think I got overzealous and was just smashing any old shit in there. At least that's what I'll tell myself.

Today ...

North Carolina State +3-105

I don't know if UT has improved enough to go on the road and win. Should be a fun one to watch with Glennon and Bray almost certainly being solid NFL QB's soon.

As of yesterday: 2-5-0 (-3.55)

Adding ... Stanford u50.5-110

[207] NORTH TEXAS o52½-110

[trendon]

As of Saturday's games: 5-8 (-3.85)

Had my first smart no-play as I liked under on the Louisville game. Let's see if small shit like that gets me back in the groove. Very confident about the later game.

[213] SMU +7½-110
[214] BAYLOR u57-110
[1213] 1H SMU +4½-115
[1214] 1H BAYLOR u28½-115

As of Sunday's Games: 6-11 (-6.20)


This might turn into a nice fade thread for you guys; be prepared to bookmark it! Yesterday, that damned INT towards the end of the first half really cost me. A bad start all together, though.


Tonight, I like Georgia Tech o47-110 as I have no problem with rain - wind is another matter - and I see two pretty dynamic offenses that should not be shut down.
