Im not much on college football as far as feel or advanced strategy/metrics
ouside of reading game previews and past history , schedule , game recaps of like opponents between the 2 teams
and what not . I usually want to have my own methodology to incorporate in with the other basic concepts
that were written above and in college football I do not possess that. Think its due to there being so many teams
I dont have the time to go at it in the meticulous way that I know Id have to in order to do it right
so I just wing it as im sure a lot of others do to .That just dont cut it with me , Im a gambler
that doesn't like to gamble if that makes any sense .

You wont catch me playing dice or scratching off a lottery ticket
I have to feel I have keyed in on to some sort of edge before I will put money on anything
And by no means am I a big bettor as a normal bet is 30 bucks or so .. I do not know how
some people can throw hundreds on a game with doing hardly any research at all
Not only does this make perfect sense, the rotation is so damn huge its ridiculous. Each game is an individual event, no doubt, but trying to even get the big picture requires analyzing the whole market, the whole damn thing.

It gets so much worse when the NCAAB rotation hits. I'll admit, some years I've tracked and bet small just waiting for the inefficiencies of March Madness. It's hard to do because opportunities are there every week.

At one point in the late fall and winter we have every major sport but baseball in full swing.

It's a bitch.

And I just want to complain because I have so much work to do and I totally feel your notion of the all the work required and truthfully, it may not be worth it when you can spot bet yourself with your own methods and come out just as well.

I keep posting about keeping it simple and not going around the block to get next door. We've seen many times how I should listen to my own advice.

Oh look, some files are ready for me to comb through...
