the betting thread

[DH]

I like GB +3.5 tonight...

Anyone else?

[ice grillin you]

its minn +3.5

i really dont have a strong feeling either way...just playing the odds with the money line...im hoping minnesota defense causes farve to have one of his chuck n duck three interception games

i like the under (37.5) a lot in that game as well but almost to much...i think its a sucker bet

[DH]

I've been betting for the better half of the last ten years and I still cant get that +/- bullshtein right.

Jackson starting has me thinking that he will throw some picks - hopefully deep in his own territory.

I thought the same thing about the under. I hate betting over/unders though. farging hate it. 

[ice grillin you]

yeah over unders are maddening

new qb in lambeau
minnesota good defense
should = under


but it looks too good....so im gonna lay off that and just hope minnesota pulls the upset and wins outright as i will make a nice little payday

i like betting the overs on games you don't care about, then every score is fun to watch.  i do really hate betting unders though, you're just asking for a boring game.

this is true

[phattymatty]

word, i think overs are my favorite bet actually, cuz not only is it fun to watxch each score, but there comes a point where you win and then it doesn't matter what the farg  happens after that/  where as the over you have to wait until the very end.

so then when you win the over by the third quarter, you already know how much you have to put on the next game which starts right after.

but i don't have a problem.

[Geowhizzer]

Igeee should've bet the under.

[ice grillin you]

i should have bet a lot of things

[DH]

And I should not have bet a few things.

i was so bored here at my mom's house yesterday that i was betting on random college games i know nothing about.  but somehow i went 3 for 3, which is not like me this year.

got a 5 game parly on the 1:00 games today.

oh, and the o/u on the hawaii bowl tonight is 72.  don't think i've ever seen one that high in my life.

[ice grillin you]

come on everyone....lets bet on todays bowl games

me likey....

1pm -- clemson -10 kentucky -- to many points for clemson but i still like them without explanation

2pm -- oregon st - 3.5 missouri -- like osu to put up a lot of points in a possible rout

4:30pm -- south carolina/houston OVER 56 - has shootout written all over it

8pm -- maryland +1 purdue -- big ten sucks...md wins fairly easily

8pm -- texas tech  -7 minnesota -- lock of the day

[phattymatty]

i put 25 bones on clemson too.  their tailbacks are sick this year.  and i didn't even know kentucky was bowl eligible.

i don't think MD wins easily, if at all.   Big Ten poops all over the ACC.

I do like your TT bet though.

[ice grillin you]

cj spiller is gonna be a big time playmaker on sundays

[ice grillin you]

1pm -- clemson -10 kentucky -- to many points for clemson but i still like them without explanation -- knew 10 was way to many...didnt know kentucky would win outright....still a pathetic bet

2pm -- oregon st - 3.5 missouri -- like osu to put up a lot of points in a possible rout -- lots of points but to many by missouri...mike riley with an unreal go for two call...great for them horrible for my bet as i could have covered in OT

4:30pm -- south carolina/houston OVER 56 - has shootout written all over it -- almost covered the over by halftime (54 pts)

8pm -- maryland +1 purdue -- big ten sucks...md wins fairly easily -- md wins fairly easily

8pm -- texas tech  -7 minnesota -- lock of the day -- i should be shot
