I went 4-3 last week. Unfortunately, I doubled up my bet on Wake (-3) so the whole weekend was a wash. Who would have thought that Miami would keep GT from going unwinfeated? Not me, that's for sure. Don't bet, kids.
Anyway, on to this week's lines.
- Purdue (-10): At the beginning of the season, this was seen as the pillowfight of the year in the B1G west. Now that we're here, they're both sitting at one conference win: Purdue has only managed to beat Maryland and Illinois has only managed to beat...ok, so they beat undefeated Wisconsin and that's not nothing. Still, I'm calling an ECU level regression for Illinois.
- LOLUVa (-3): This is a hilarious line. Mostly because it means noone is taking LOLUVa seriously despite their sitting atop their division. I'd love to see the wahoos fall harder than cavman, but I don't see it happening. They just embarrassed a good duke team and I don't see them letting up against their cross divisional "rival."
- USCe (-5): Tennessee had their SEC win. We now return you to your regularly scheduled embarrassing loss, soon to be in progress.
- UNCHeat (-4): Transitive property says that Duke blows out UNCHeat. But then that same Duke team just shat the bed against LOLUVa last week and UNCHeat will be looking for a bounce back win. Or they are emotionally spent from last weekend and lose to us twice. I honestly have no idea, but I'm taking the heels and hoping that they put us back in the driver's seat for the coastal.
As always, please do not take my ramblings as legitimate gambling advice. You will lose your shirt and anything else you're foolish enough to bet based on my idiocy.
Lines may change over the course of the week. I also may have made errors copying them. Always triple check when money is at stake

3-5 on the year. May just have to start taking Rutgers' opponent every week now. Oh, it's Liberty this week? Nevermind.
I will however take Minnesota two weeks in a row to stomp Maryland by more than 16. Give me the Gophers.
Feeling pretty good about this pick right now.
The #21 in the AP poll hasn't covered yet this year!!!! So take South Alabama +26 versus Appy State this week.
I hit 2 3-team parlays last week which put me a little more on the plus side this year. (Nice in DE to just roll up to the corner gas station and drop $5 to win $32.50.)
Haven't sorted thru everything this week yet, but Missagain giving 2.5 to the Golden Domers? Give me Rudy all day long.
On the west-side ticket I've got Texas -.5, AZ St -3.5, and San Diego St -13.5
On the dog ticket I've got Temple +11.5, Miami OHIO +1.5, and Notre Dame +1.5
App St cover for the first #21 win so far this year. By a point.
Leave it to loluva and souf Carolina to screw things up.
I am just happy that you don't just half-ass these tables and take the time to correct the mistakes in the school names.
I'll also take suggestions if there are widely accepted/entertaining nicknames I don't include.
Right now I think its limited to:
Ole Miss
Pedo State
LOLUVa
Eastern Carolina
USCe
UNCHeat
Mizzou (because I always misspell Missouri)
Murland
Butgers
Missagain
anOSU
ArentKansas (I can't take credit for this one, but still good.)
Here's hoping for at least 6 OTs
Boy my venture of picking every ACC game is all over the place. Hit em all one week miss em all the next week 3-now I'm sitting at 21-23-1(thanks for my first push FSU)
This week I like 0 of the ACC lines: Pitt -6, Cuse +10.5, UVA -3, Duke +4, BC +34.5 (so many pts)
Notre Dame at -1 has to be wrong
Started as Missagain at -2.5
75% of the dollars bet so far in Vegas are on ND, so they've move it that far.
Vegas insider has it starting at UM (-4) and the consensus has it as ND(-1) π€·ββοΈ
These are the lines that I always tell myself to avoid. When they seem too good to be true there is usually some vegas black magic involved.
I feel like this gives MSU a lot of credit. I know Penn State struggled against Mich, but I don't think MSU is good at all
Pitt -6 against Miami...Panthers should roll
Parlayed aTm (-10.5) and Notre Dame (-1).
So far the Aggies are holding up their end (up 35 halfway through the 3rd). Hopeful that ND can handle Michigan and make me some money.
Narrator: He did not make any money
Time for a Brian Kelly blood sacrifice
ND & Liberty FTW tonight
