    only then does USC have a shot to jump TCU

    Spot on. It’s just a numbers game. Even a low share in a top 3-5 market is highly valuable because the money is in prime time and sports. LA is the largest NFL market as well when you add up the ratings for both teams. Although- Jets resurgence has kept it close. NFL knew that when they went into Los Angeles. It’s a hard to reach market in terms of the consumer so the cost per point is highly highly highly expensive. Rams #6 most watched team behind Cowboys, Bears, Eagles, Giants and Patriots.

    Bookmaker is very untimely with futures.
    I'm not sure what I'll be doing. Not doing anything until they make the playoffs, then I'll evaluate based on lines/matchups/etc. If I did hedge i typically only do it for my original bet

    Based on that TCU line to make the playoffs, it may be prudent to hedge USC. I thought TCU could lose and Ohio State could backdoor. If TCU is really -1200 to make the playoffs, that’s trouble for Ohio State

    like i keep saying in here across multiple threads: the ONLY way TCU gets moved out of the Top 4 is if they get blown out by K State. I am talking 20+ point loss to K State.

    then and only then, could they be moved out of the Top 4 and Ohio State right back in.

    i have said for over a month now that on a neutral field i would take MICHIGAN over GEORGIA this year.

    georgia lost 8 defenders off of that incredible D last year.

    the newbies just have not been exposed yet, but in a fierce battle they might be.

    Tennessee? they got them at home and in the second half it rained the whole time which helped slow down Tenn pass game and helped GA young D.

    the committee has to look at how the teams stack up TODAY

    hendon hooker the great Tenn QB is out for the year.

    hence, Bama is above them.

    "but they beat Bama head to head" blah blah blah

    Tenn lost by 100 to SoCarolina

    you do not get to do that and stay ahead of a 10-2 team that lost two games to strong teams by 3 points each.

    Taking USC tonight to hedge my future. Figure if USC wins my future is probably dead but I'll be even. USC loses I'll lose the bet but the future has a much better shot

    Even if OSU gets in they are not beating UGA. Georgia is going through the motions right now. They will be locked and loaded once the playoffs begin and no team is going to come within 3 TDs of them. We're looking at a repeat and I hate the dawgs.

    I watched Ohio state third string qb beat a stacked Bama team years back in the playoff. Anything is possible

    OSU had a great offensive and defensive line back then. This team is severely overrated. Struggled in the trenches with a lot of soft B10 teams, especially Northwestern, PSU and Maryland. Anything can happen but it's much harder for them to win 2 playoff games. A one game winner take all, sure, it's possible but I'm not sure they're winning 2 of these games.

    Great call duker. Hedging possible now if even warranted. That loss to Michigan should've been a huge wakeup call for that team. Imagine how hyped they must be now that they know they went from being dead to back in. I hope you cash that ticket.

    terrrible argument from september. they are 12-0 because of their defense. kirby has multiple number one recruiting classes and they are number one in the country with what you call a questionable defense lol.

    they were very fortunate to catch Oregon in game with a new HC and a new transfer QB, and in ATL no less.

    samford? puuuhhhleease.

    at south carolina? brand new team with new transfer QB in week three. caught them early.

    kent state? gave up 22 to a MAC team.

    at mizzu? gave up 22 to a bad team.

    auburn? terrible team. fired their HC

    vandy? really?

    vs FL. gave up 20

    tennessee? nice first half i will give them that. but it was at home. 2nd half was full on rain. hurt Tenn passing O big time.

    at messy state? really man?

    at kentucky? mildcats not good this year.

    ga tech? come on.


    super weak sched. avoided Bama, did not have to play LSU until now in the SEC title game.

    avoided Ole Piss.

    just not a schedule strong enough to expose the young defenders.

    i think they will get exposed in the CFP, most likely the championship game because they will not play Michigan until the title game.
