1-1 start to the week...lost on Illinois and won on Arizona 2H

Ohio -7 -- WIN
Nebraska -10.5 -- LOSS
Oklahoma St -10.5 -- WIN

Those are the early plays. I want to hit UCLA hard but it seems like a trap line. I'd talked myself into a small bet when it was -2.5 but it's back to -3 so I'm staying away.

And the rest of the day...

Michigan -10 2H (miracle cover) -- WIN
Northern Illinois +8.5 2H -- LOSS
Oklahoma St -2.5 2H -- WIN
Boston College +14 -- LOSS
Boston College +7 2H -- LOSS
Tennessee +6.5 -- WIN
Tennessee +3 2H -- PUSH
Minnesota -6 2H -- WIN
Clemson -3 -- WIN
Texas Tech -6.5 -- WIN
Mississippi St +7.5 -- WIN
Mississippi St +6 2H -- WIN
Kentucky +6 -- WIN
GGG -200 to win -- PUSH
Stanford -3 2H -- LOSS
Ole Miss -2.5 2H -- LOSS

why would you win a push if you had GGG to win?

honest question I really never thought about this scenario in boxing. i assumed everyone loses except those who bet on a draw...guess i've never had money on a draw before.

I didn't realize that the to win bets would push either. I'd never bet on a fight when there was a draw before.

this is us +190 to win best drama is the bet of the night

there is no overwhelmingly favorite for best drama. there have been no big network dramas like this in forever. heres you shot to make some cash.

jeff tambor +400 to win best actor

won the previous 2 years. all the momentum on doland glover, but his show aired last fall. and he wasnt particularity amazing in it. great show. but tambor has a better submission episode. mostly emmy voters are lazy and just repeat themselves. at +400 you cant not.

In a rare occurrence I won the big bets and lost the smaller ones. It's usually the other way around. Eeked out a small profit today. Yesterday was nice so a positive weekend.

Our SuperContest entries have sucked. Having other people in it so far hasn't been fun. One guy is way too analytical on stupid things and argues about games being taken out of consideration that have won.

I went back and looked at previous winners and you can withstand a few bad weeks. We gotta be strong next weekend though

[ice grillin you]

went 9-0 in bets this weekend btwn real money on cfb and 4-0 in the bullet

of course i went 0-4 in the bullet last week

[PhillyPhreak54]

Who was your best play in college this week?

[ice grillin you]

memphis

won outright

also had northern illinois who i loved

[PhillyPhreak54]

I wasn't sure what Memphis had. I sensed that was a trap line for UCLA and laid off but I certainly didn't expect Memphis to ball like they did

I bit the apple on Nebraska. That previous week vs Oregon had me thinking they'd score more

My best bet was Clemson

Can't wait for next weekend
