            Uhm....NIU needs to step the heck up! Spotting them 21-0 is not a good way to start. How about scoring a TD....uhmmmkay?

              I think my A&M team could beat NIU. That was some pretty impressive offensive play calling in the first half. Sorry dbldown, first time I have seen NIU play this year and I got a bad ass line at 11.5 so I'm trying to make some fun of a shitty situation.

                I just hope good ole Dbl didn't talk to many into taking this pathetic team for too much money.

                  i didnt try talking anyone into anything.....I just posted the facts about these teams as I've seen it. everyone on this site is an adult and can make their own decisions....

                  Not to mention that they are only down by 11 if youre looking at the spread...I just hope NIU covers....Not to win money but so that everyone giving me shit right now can suck my cock

                    Are you kidding dude? You begged people to bet this:

                      Dbledown and I have been on the same side a number of times, so I am giving it a whirl. It is only 11 pts they need to get back, and they start with the ball in the 2nd half. If they can get a TD, it'll be much more interesting in the 2nd half....

                        yeah and youre telling me that they can't cover +9.5 at this point diehardfan???? Not to mention that I could care less if people actually bet it....I just felt EXTREMELY good about this pick, and that was a good waying of showing how good i felt about it

                        You obviously have no experience with sports betting

                          from now on cap your own games and dont look at anyones write ups if you expect them to be right every time (and I reitterate that this game is far from over)

                            Sure they can, I didn't say it was over. Just don't sit there and say you never tried to talk anyone into betting it. You BEGGED people to bet it.

                                again i reiterate that was me showing how much i liked the pick...you think I actually give a shit if people make the pick...it doesnt help my pocket if they do

                                  it's always easy to tell when people are new to sports betting....

                                  They always count games as losses, or wins when it's still WAAAAYYYY too early

                                      With this rushing defense, it is very over.

                                            NIU is terrible

                                            Just read all the messages you guys sent in about NIU going to upset Ball St or at least cover the spread. Well guess what, NIU is awful and at this moment getting beat by 31. I hope you guys are didnt bet cause you are paying the MAN!!

                                                    Dbldown.......we are all responsible for our own actions. I was tuned into this game because of your write-up and enthusiasm but I wagered on this game after doing my own research. I lost but it is in noway your fault. I broke my rule about wagering on teams based on numbers and never having seen either team perform.

                                                    You'll probably catch some flack and that will just show the maturity of those posting their negativities, but the fact still remains, that we are all responsible for our own decisions.

                                                      Plus I put twice as much on Ball State second half as I had on Northern for the game so I made out anyways.

                                                        Wasnt singling you out ol buddy. Believe me I didnt think they would get blown out and could maybe cover but you did pick the outright upset. Cant bet with your heart believe me Bama kills me everytime. LOL

                                                            I agree Bama, which I was I usually try shying away from betting the teams I root for....But I saw a lot of value in this game based on things I've seen this year....This team just gave up

                                                              the three teams that NIU lost to ARE all better than any team Ball St. has played this year.....so not quite sure what you're pointing out there..

                                                              I underestimated Ball St. but anyone that thinks they are the 17th best team in the country needs to come get me high as well

                                                                      I didnt think Ball St. was this good....I'm just kind of confused as to how this game was sooooooooooooooooo one-sided
