Gambling Man

Get on my lads!

Tenn-#1 Georgia-20. Whoa, that seems like a lot. What did I predict?...UGA-13. Boy oh boy....Mighty tempted to take the hated "Vols" and those points...God Georgia's good...One of their defensive stars got arrested for rape yesterday. He had been suspended by the team for their last game, though. Last week's game at KY was EVEN by the 'Ouse! Nickel on TN to stay under 20.

#4 Oregon-14-Washington State. I predicted O-18. No play.


-#9 Michigan. MI is -1.5. I predicted MI-2. No play.




#6 Ohio State-21-Purdue. I predicted -13. -21?! Nope, I don't have belief nor an abiding conviction. No play.

Virginny-#7 Notre Dame-5.5. I thought -3. When my predicted and the actual are close, how can I play?...But 5.5. At Virginia. Against ND. At night. Virginia 6-3 (4-2). ND is going to have to outscore them, like they did in South Bend last week against UNC. Crowd won't get to "Irish," they're used to it. Will it fire the "Cavaliers" like a klan cross-burning though? It might. It fucking might. I think Virginia reasonably could win this game. And they're getting 5.5. Do I have real belief or an abiding conviction? Not the latter. Belief. I do. Nickel on UVA getting 5.5.

#10 Oklahoma State-13-TCU. I thought -10. No play.

#13 Woke-2-#21 NC State. Me: -2. Ha! No play.

#12 Ole Miss-Texas A&M-2.5. Me: -1. No play.

#19 Iowa-5-Minnesota. I predicted Vegas would make IA-3. I am not touching that fucking dog with a 10-foot pole. NO PLAY.

#8 Michigan State-13 Maryland. I thought -17. No play.

#13 Baylor-#4 Oklahoma. OU is -5.5, I predicted -4. No play.

#16 Auburn-5.5 Mississippi State. I predicted Auburn-3 and wrote "If the 'Ouse makes Albern more than a three-point pick, I will be extremely tempted to play Miss. State." I thought the game was in Starkville. So now I have to rethink this. What the 'Ouse is saying is that on a neutral field Auburn would be a 2.5 point fave and in Starkville Miss St would be -5. On my prior reasoning Auburn is not "more than a 3-point pick" so no play.

#20 Wisconsin-24.5-Northwestern. Whoa. I thought the 'Ouse would think -15. "Boogers" are on a roll! Hmm hmm hmm. No, I'm not fucking taking NW even getting all those points and I don't have that much faith in WI. No play.

 #25 Pitt is a 6.5 point fave against North Carolina :o I predicted Pitt-3. Obviously, I won't play my own team and honestly my judgment is not to be trusted on this game. If you decide to play, make your own judgment or take the advice of somebody neutral.

So only two plays this week. Idk, that's just how I look at 'em.
