I'm not sure how Wisconson came out as Boston College, sorry, WTF?

To be clear:

WISCONSON -11

Nebraska -24

Cal -2.5



I really didn't drink that much last night, honestly.

Good thing it wasn't Boston College beacuse they didn't cover 11, though I doubt the line was that high on them.

I gotta get some coffee.

I just jumped on the Penguinfan money train. I was going to make $110 bets, but decided to start with $55 units instead.

I bet two of the games at Mansion, but bet Wisconsin at Intertops for -10.5 instead of -11. May not sound like much, but if that half point difference comes through just once or twice for the entire season, it will bve well worth juggling multiple sports books.

Having the half point in your favor sure as shit can't hurt you.

BTW, anyone watching the Michigan/Vandy game? I don't have a bet on it, but I will look to fade Vandy in the future for sure, the Michigan running backs and recievers stand a better chance of falling over than they do of getting tackled, who's coaching these kids on defense? It is a contact sport you know?

Man, the new rules about when the clock starts are gonna affect the spreads and total in these games. I look for Vegas to react by next week on this, wow.

Some of the early games had 15-20 less plays, big difference.

I'll feel a bit better about this Nebraska game when Taylor completes a pass, at least one to his own team.

Interceptions in the red zone really hurt with this new clock management thing.

What's the "new" clock management thing you speak of? I haven't watched TV in a month, no shit. I'm behind on everything sports related right now.

They start the clock on posession changes as soon as the ball is spotted now and as soon as the ball is kicked the clock starts instead of waiting for someone to touch it, that is three or more plays a game right there believe it or not.

Nebraska play looking good so I guess I can switch my bitching to the Cal game, that should help things along.

I believe ya, but I like the changes. It wouldn't hurt to speed the college game up a bit. With the old rules, the blowouts took FOREVER.

Not sure, I'll check around just got home from work, this working on Sunday shit gotta stop soon, cuts into my degenerate time.


Recap of yesterday 2-1 for a bit of a profit, but watching that California game was rough, at least for the 20 minutes I actually sat through it before giving up all hope. If there was a mercy rule in College football I think it would have been employed yesterday.

Good news is I doubt I will miss a game that bad again this year, or ever.
