    Is the UAB half score really 19-12? Is the over in order or not?

    i looked hard at that Rick and just passed. it moves the game total a ton, but the line dropped from 78 to 77 at 5D during halftime. wanted to play it though, good spot by you.

    Hey buddy, Cleve St what a No-Show ! I never get upset when I lose, I know winning streaks come to an end but I'm having a terrible day because of how awful Clev. St played.

    I see you like St. Bonnies, just be careful Duquesne is having Special season there playing pretty good ! Gl my friend.

    nice! good thing we avoided that Tulane 2H over, eh?

    for what it's worth, i think that it's good to apply a qualifier to totals in general - that is, think long and hard before you take an over with a team with a Pom Off under 95 or an under with a team with a Pom Def 106+. eliminate games where we can't count on one team's offense/defense. that was the reason that i didn't play the overs in Valpo/YSU and Akron/Toledo, let's see how that goes.

    I always like to put something on Valpo games. I think I told you my daughter went there and I went to a few games when Bryce Drew was there. You remember - the year he hit that amazing shot in the tournet against MSU.

    4-4-1 -2.3u, 20-19-1, -5.3u to date. spun my wheels for about 12 hours yesterday. bah. should've known after the end of the NU game that it just wasn't going to be my day. oh well, onward and upward. already have 7u out on the Super Bowl, let's see if we can't find a couple of solid CBB plays to go along with them.

    we got close but not quite. thanks for the well-wishes. i agree with your rivalry game solution - for me, it's the dog or pass, there's just no way to quantify the bump that a dog gets playing against their big rival (also, the fave generally isn't worried about style points - it's all about the SU win for them in the rivalry game, too).

    no worries, pacocn. thanks a lot for sharing your pony plays. they're fun, and let's face it - no one's going to win big on the ponies every time out. still way up with your plays, so are my buddies that i pass them along to, so keep them coming.

    i'm glad. i actually took the game over for 1.5u at the last minute. YSU's Pom Off of 94.4 is just below my cutoff for an over, and i liked it on every other level. wish i'd played it 3* but oh well. also glad that you welcome my sharing my reasoning, that's a big reason that i like coming on SBR. you never know who might read your reasoning, and chime in with similar thoughts that may be helpful. for now, the lesson for yesterday is that 94.4 is not so bad as to automatically avoid, but 90 (Toledo) is. so, maybe i should move my over qualifier from 95 to 94....

    i knew that your daughter went there, but i didn't know that it was that time frame. i'll never forget that game. we've used that play in rec league games a couple of times.

    What do you think about Penn St. I like the Badgers - or should I say fade MSU till they break out - if they ever do. Also like the OSU over. If you have time could you quickly explain the UNC under lean please.

    What did you end up doing in the SB - GO PACK - but I'm scared - lol - of course I've been scared since they beat the Bears at the end of the season. Actually, I'm looking for a O/U thought. Seems like every year in the SB the 1st quarter flies bye before they settle down that being said I really like the under, but these 2 could go crazy!!!

    Rick, for the FSU/UNC under, my reasoning is the two defenses. FSU is #2 in Pom Def, UNC #6. both are top tier in defense, but while UNC is above average offensively, FSU is below average. so, even though both play at a high pace normally, i think that there will be a lot of empty possessions. also, with the loss of Larry Drew II's talents, UNC's offense will be crippled. heh heh.

    Ok - that's how I was leaning 45 at greek now. People tend to think of the Packers as quick strike - no run offense, but if Rogers can complete the short passes it's as good as a running game.
