I missed a 12 team parlay tonight by 1 game.

It was $2 to win over 8k.

I'm sick. Stupid Nationals blew it for me. Anyway, USC has lost three in a row to Stanford and Barkley has never beaten them.

Damn buddy I wish I would've seen your parlay!!! I would've warned you against the nationals-huge braves fan, watch every game, and kris medlen is our new ace-we've won his past 19 starts now I believe. Anyway if it's any consolation I lost a 25 team parlay back in march by one game-stupid Wyoming couldn't beat San Diego state at home! I would've won over $10,000-you better believe I was sick too!!!

Anyway, if I were you I'd replace USC with Michigan state. I really think USC will probably find a way to end up winning, but I feel much more confident that the Spartans will crush the always overranked and overrated Irish.

You have to have a screw loose, if you're 1 game away from a (12 team and 25 team<--- are you serious) parlay hitting and you don't hedge.

I'm not exactly sure why everyone is all over Mich St. over ND. Pretty sure MSU isn't a whole lot different of a team then last year when Notre Dame beat them except they have a different QB with less expirience. I'm not betting on the game either way just too close to call one way or another when there are better plays. I also don't get why people aren't betting huge on USC over Stanford. The fact that Barkley hasen't beat Stanford ever makes me think theres no possible way they won't win and most likely they will blow Stanford out. Stanford won 20-17 against San Jose St. week 1 seriously and then they blew out Duke last week, friggin Duke. It's not basketball Duke is terrible. And, besides that last week was USC's let a way worse team in the ballgame week when they let Cuse only lose by ten. Seriously USC is gunna be jacked up for this game and it should be a blowout.

I couldn't hedge bc at the time it was my last little bit of bankroll bc I was pissed I had lost big on something earlier. You know one of those ones where you say f it and go for it all with one lat hail Mary.

Like I said, I really think that USC will win-this Stanford team is much worse than last year's-I just feel much more confident with Michigan state. Notre dame is consistently hyped up year after year, and I always rack up big betting against them as they quickly fade. They are not nearly as good as they're hyped up to be, and it will be fun watching them come crashing back down to earth once again.

Damn sorry to hear your parlay stories. Best of luck in the future. My anchor assuming I hit the first 9 games is the Houston Rice game which I'm actually pretty confident in but I also know for damn sure I'll end up hedging it if I get lucky enough to get that far.

Thanks for your thoughts on the teaser though. I think the fact that Matt Barkley has never won and they've lost 3 in a row is a lot of motivation for them to really get this game. Also, I don't trust michigan state at all. They've let me down a lot in the past two years so it may be a biased statement but I just don't trust them for a big play. Good luck everyone!
