i got ohio state 1st half... i think this is a solid choice.

on a side note, i hate lee corso. hes picked against the bucks all 3 times this season. the good news is that hes never, ever, right!

Thats worth a point on the spread right there. Lee Corso dosn't know what he's talking about.

Edit: Whats the deal on the rutgers vs cincy game? at pinnacle it's Rutgers -7.5 (+125)

Michigan covered!!!

my first sports book play ever...off to a good start. I ended up putting down 1 unit on LSU -7 +100 for the first quarter (great play I think) and 1 unit on USC 5.5 -105, lets see how this goes.

i had the under (72 points) with the hawaii game. that was a close one but a winner nontheless.

i finally overcame my wake forest losing streak. everytime i bet on a WF game i lose until yesterday. special thanks to V tech. overall, it was a great week with most my money falling on 1st half ohio state and the over in that same game. buckeyes covered the over with their score alone!

next weeks lines are already up. some interesting ones....

Pitt +3 @ Balt
Jax -2.5 @ Buff (Jax is getting POUNDED. get it while its hot)
Carolina -4.5 @ Wash (also getting hammered)
Chi +3 @ NE
Cinny -3 @ Clev

College
Thursday - BC -4.5 @ Miami
Friday - LSU +1 @ Arkansas (don't get this one, LSU basically pick 'em on the road vs Arkansas???)

Saturday
SJSU -7 @ Idaho (Idaho +7 getting hammered already)
ND +7.5 @ USC ( lot of ND money coming in already)
Purdue +16.5 @ Hawaii (Hawaii getting hit pretty good)
Louisville -11.5 @ Pitt (juice moving toward Louisville)


those are just a few that jumped out at me at first glance. already hit jax -2.5 and Cincy before the number gets to or away from a FG. Will be watching LSU/ARK line and waiting to get USC under a TD (or at a TD and buy the hook) and I'm gonna pound it.

I took Ark at -1 and Hawaii at -16.5 (they always cover).

Other games that look good are GT +1.5 vs Georgia.

Also the USC game started at 6.5 i dunno if it will jump back down or not.

yes, had colts 1st quarter +.5 my big NFL pick was new england. how did you miss that one IW?

as for this week, BC and arkansas do look good. i also think new mexico state, TCU, and florida are worth a glance. the over for the arizona/arizona state game appears to be money too (thanks to IW for the tip to bet over on PAC 10 games).

I didn't know Favre would have broken his arm LOL. I seriously expected Indy would be too much for the Tony Romo led Cowboys. New England had also been a little off against the Jets and Colts the previous 2 weeks so I didn't want to follow them to a potential losing streak. Oh well, gotta go double or nothing next week, I'll win one eventually

I really like SJSU and it is down to 6.5. I am on the other side on Hawaii, I think they continue to cover at home.

I do too. I just listed them away team - spread - home team.
I've been riding Hawaii all year and don't plan on stopping now. My only question is why is the line moving down? It opened at -17 and now i'm seeing -16 and SportsInsights is showing almost 70% of bets coming in on Hawaii .I didn't see any big injuries for Hawaii and although Purdue is 4-1 on the road ATS this year, they covered @ Illinois, @ Mich St (a 2 pt win), @ Northwestern and @ ND (a 14 pt loss). I dont get it.

(If anybody follows reverse line movement, BYU went from -12.5 to -10.5 with 93% on BYU and USC went from -6 to -7.5 with 66% on ND)

the over/under for that hawaii game is 75! so many points yet it will likely happen. i think ill take the under and hope that there is 1 slow quarter. this way, ill have a shot at winning the wager the entire game. if this covers, it will do so in the final minutes.

From what I read this was a "trap game" most of the public money was bet on Indy. I however took Dallas...yea buddy.

CFB Picks so far this week for me

Purdue @ Hawaii -16.5
LSU @ Arkansas -1
BC -4 @ Miami
GT+1.5 @ Georgia

Also looking at the Nevada +3 but not sure yet.

lately, ive been tearing up the over/under spreads. i got the following:

tennessee vs kentucky: under 60.5
arizona vs. arizona state: over 44 (most my money is here!)

as for teams, the only spread i really like is NMSU -6.5 at utah state. im also considering TCU. they have been playing well as of late.
