    Doug Upstone Thread

    Hi Everyone, I'm Doug Upstone, I have been doing videos here at SBR for six years and writing here since 2012. Yes, in full disclosure, I sell information, but that is not why I am here.

    What I would like to do is share thoughts and opinions with you, answer questions to the best of my ability, hopefully help you win some money. Peter Loshak, who does many of the videos here, the other day called me "A rare handicapper who appears to be a very nice guy, unusual in this business."

    I think that sounds about right. I have tried this before in other forums and the negative talk was too much and I frankly have no interest in defending every thing I do. First and foremost I am a sports writer who loves handicapping sports.

    I do not need criticism nor do I require praise, just want to hang out with sports bettors at a site where many could know me.

    You can Google me and see all my plays are monitored, so no BS and I own up to 0-2 start in college football, having lost with Minnesota and Georgia State.

    So with the games getting started soon, let's have some fun.

    I was hoping Southern Miss would go to +7, but have held off thus far at +6.5. Also, was taking a strong look at Louisiana U., but after watching Ark.State and Georgia State get crushed at home by MAC teams, I'm off them.

    Houston Cougars fearless thus far against Sooners.
    Missouri has no pass rush and WestVirginia WR's blowing them up.

    What about Bama & the QB situation?
    Thoughts?

    Jayvegas420, Bama has shown as long as they get good not great QB play, they are fine. I can really see USC playing with Tide but not having one starting defensive linemen back will hurt them late. Sharps on Bama at 70-30 rate to cover.

    Not sure why Northwestern is not bringing more pressure. Wildcats doing terrible job getting off blocks. WMU is quite good however.

    Sooners defense is gassed, In big trouble against Cougars. #ooners O-Line not doing the job.

    If Mizzou can only be at 3 points against Mountaineers that had 2 starters back (thus far) a lot work ahead.

    The UNDER in LSU and Badgers is looking very good even coming down four points from original release.

    Three quarters of bets placed right now are on #CrimsonTide and #ClemsonTigers tonight to cover. Agree or disagree
