                Colorado's offense seems to be clicking, UCLA defense doesn't present much of a problem, I believe you have a winner

                  why not tease them down to - 2 1/2 and play 10 or so open ones to fill later.

                    Why would you have to buy points on your biggest bet of the year?

                    Most guys identify their biggest bet as a large deviation from the given line.

                    Can you shed some light on this thought?

                        I like it. Colorado playing better than the eye presents, night game, elevation. Rowdy stoned california and texas kids....should be a cover for CU. And the CU punter is out. And we know how important punters are in Colorado. :/

                              Lol I was pretty drunk when I placed that bet... I feel looking at it after why did I like it so much. Colorado has not beaten anyone worth a damn. Nebraska blows this year CSU blows and UNH blows. UCLA has played way tougher teams they lost by 14 to a good Fresno team. Oklahoma is a good team so can’t really blame them there. Cincy is decent as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if this bet loses or even if UCLA wins this game. I hope I win but jeez I have to stop betting when I’m drinking.

                                UCLA is trash. Colorado is good. You're probably ok.

                                    In general, with all do respect, try to bet when sober and then watch the game at a bar.

                                    Not the other way around.

                                      and always drink coffee at the poker table and always be the only guy in the bar sober at 2am when everyone is drunk,especially the women.

                                      great place for a first date,a comedy club and sit in the front row and let the comedians break the ice for you and then go back to her place and f\*\*k like bunnies.

                                      I'm going to write a book one day,1000 places to take afirst date.

                                          if you feel that way just start a pair of 250.00 6pt teasers with UCLA +15 1/2 with one open spot each. you could win both or at least the teasers could save the straight bet if you are leery. or just straight bet UCLA with another shop. you've made this game more interesting now at least.

                                                          On paper, Colorado looks like the play. Can Chip Kelly turn around a young UCLA team this fast? Doubtful. I see a 37-20 type game. Good luck!

                                                            Thanks! Hoping so but anxious right now. I feel that it was a not a good bet but once the game starts hopefully Colorado will relieve some of my anxiety.

                                                              Why would you buy points down to 7 and not 6 1/2. If you are going to make a stupid play (and buying points is ALWAYS a stupid play in the long run) at least buy it down to a possible win situation, not a tie situation.

                                                                Yeah....I’m not trying to be an ass but it seems like when people have a “lock”, “biggest bet”, or “hammer” play....AND they buy points....it loses the majority of the time.

                                                                If you’re in a situation where you have to buy a point, maybe you’re not as confident as you need to be...

                                                                I actually liked UCLA when I saw the line. UCLA has looked horrible but their defense isn’t horrible (if you look at talent and not stats) and they have a young QB that is getting better.

                                                                Is Colorado “really” a good team? What is their best win? A Nebraska team that hasn’t won a game and lost at home to Troy?

                                                                I feel like UCLA can hang here.
