    Ever had days like this that you remember years later??
    Nov 11th, 1995

    This remains a red letter day for me in my sports betting history.

    I had just started, with ESB, in early 1995 after seeing their ad in the DRF.

    Nov 11th stands out though as it was my first BIG winning day and truly could have been for many others, see if you guys remember these particular games anyway.

    1)Northwestern -8 1/2, They win 31-20 over Iowa as Ismaeli returns a fumble like 60 yards to go up 11 in the waning minutes of the game

    2)Ohio St -17 1/2 vs Illinois, Eddie George rushes for 300+ yards as the Buckeyes crush Illinois 41-3

    3)Nebraska -25 vs Kansas, Big Red roll that day, ALSO 41-3

    4)Kansas St -20 1/2 vs Iowa St, K-St crushes Iowa St 49-7

    And to close that day...

    5)Florida -20 at South Carolina, remember getting home from my shift at TGI Fridays and seeing Spurrier say "sorry about the score" to the sideline reporter as the game ended, Florida CRUSHED USC 63-7!


    I won a 5 team parley for 500 bux, at 20/1.


    Wanted to add MSU that day (but decided against it) at -1 vs Indiana, they cruised 31-13!



    Truly a day i will never forget!! Kind of like Nov 5th 1955 in Back to the Future....The planets were aligned right that day for sure.

    The 1995 Northwestern Team was an absolute cash cow too, covered every spread save 2, and those were the 2nd and last games of that year, famously the last game was the rose bowl vs USC..

        the cowboys were up 13-0 or 13-3 with less than 7 mins to play i think
        at home, vs skins
        2005. they had won like 10 years in a row at home and were dominating
        brunell burns roy williams 2x for long tds to moss or coles and i lose my biggest bet ever, at the time
        then i realize losing 2500 isnt the end of the world and lose it 50 x over


        other painful losses: memphis vs KU
        i also had the pads the day hoffman allowed back to back to back to back hrs

        those 3 stand out

                  I can't remember any of my huge winning days. Hmm, I can't remember the losing ones either.
