Great day of college football next Saturday.

Need to study these a little more. Some tough ones to pick.

Yeah lots of sharp lines this week. The only one that really looks weird to me is Florida State -2.5. Seems like that should be bigger, and the public is betting it that way on Draftkings with 88% of the bets on Florida State. Seems fishy.

I also kinda think A&M should be favored by more than 7.5 at home.

The 2.5 for FSU is a bit odd.

I think the 7.5 is a good number for A&M.

Oregon being 21 point favorites is a little surprising. Would have put it at 17.5

Poor performance by FSU last week, but they should be getting 3 starters back this week (2 on offense, 1 on defense).

21 by Oregon is kind of crazy.  I'd take the over in that game.

Good call with UCLA, that spread has moved down to 3.5 since this morning. Looks like Rising will be out again. Darn

The fishy line theory hasn’t worked too well the first couple of weeks but it’s about the best indicator you can find in sports betting. There were three games last weekend and they went either 0-2-1 or 1-2 with John Q Public getting the best of it.  But when you have a line like this one and all the fish are on FSU and it ain’t moving, as you know, that means the sharps are on Clemson.  I rarely wager anymore unless I’m at a casino but I wouldn’t touch FSU with a 10 foot pole.

Very, very few guys can get rich sports betting.  You will never know for certain who the Billy Walters and Bob Voulgaris’ of the world are betting because they won’t tell you and can’t (or don’t) place their own wagers (they pay runners to do so). The best you can do is try to connect the dots by finding games where the public is heavy on one side yet the line either doesn’t move or even moves the other way.  Just a 2 cent opinion by someone who was never worth a darn picking games himself 😂

I am certainly nowhere near those guys level, but I did finish last football season a +2950.

Basketball was only a +345. I don't bet baseball.

Yeah the square bets have been surprisingly successful in college football so far this year

    • I’ve stated over and over that I don’t think that the hush money trial has merit. I also don’t think that the fraud/appraisals case in NYC had merit, either. I think that the evidence in the Election Tampering case down in Georgia is pretty damning, and the case about mishandling documents down in Florida is a real problem for Trump… because that’s what intelligent people do-look at the facts make sound decisions not based on their pwecious feewings.  You know, just saying “Bah! It’s all a bunch of lies because I love him!” Or “of course he did it! I hate him.” But thought processes are something most people are incapable of. They only manage to scroll social media for posts that validate their own opinions and them off as truth or fact when they are just outright lies… but they make the re-poster feel good inside so he believes them without question.    Every time I soundly refute the  idea that trump was good for the economy, y’all yell “but COVID!” His tax cuts provided a short term bubble in the economy by way of an exploding deficit and debt that our grandkids will still be paying interest upon 50 years from now even prior to COVID.  It’s like when Mama takes over the family finances, maxes out all of the credit cards and drives the family into bankruptcy.  Y’all would be the spoiled brat, immature and stupid children that spout off “things were so much better when Mom was handling the finances! We had everything we wanted! Put her back in charge!” Anybody that says “Trump was good for the economy” is just letting they world known that they don’t understand micro/macro economics or the effects of rising interest rates have on a debt the size of ours.    What none of you seem to realize is that the problems were facing today (interest rates and inflation) would be occurring even if Trump were in office because his fiscal policies are more flawed than either conservatives or liberals.    Libs: we should raise taxes on the rich and spend more! Conservatives: We should cut taxes on everybody but cut spending!   Trump: We’re gonna cut taxes and spend more!    It’s a recipe for pure disaster. He’s literally the guy who says “we’re gonna buy high, sell low, and make it up in volume!”    
    • The problem our buddy @CardinalBacker has is that the Dems have been cheating Trump since before his inauguration.  There's 4 cheats going on right now against a private citizen.  But yet he wants us to believe that the 2020 election was squeaky clean.  No cheating what so ever.  That a brain dead individual got 81 million votes.  But the other guy that was supposed to be so bad got 74 million, the most any President ever got for reelection.  Evil people don't turn on and off their evil cheating ways.

    • You just analogized to a tee the situation going on with the Trump New York trial. And I bet you can't even see the hypocrisy elicited out of your hatred. You once again outed yourself...without any realization of your actions. I'm not sure if Reagan actually set you up to expose your blatant hypocrisy, or if it was just a happy coincidence. You seem to thrive on humiliating yourself. Now get to work on providing that evidence of your emphatic declarations that Trump's economy was horrible. You failed miserably before, I bet you will again.
