GAMBLING LINES 2019: WEEK 5

Ouch. Just ouch. Wake only winning by 3 really torched my weekend as it took down three different parlays. Who would have thunk that an undefeated Wake would be less effective at BC than Kansas? Add to that Clemson and Wisconsin struggling with far inferior teams and it was just a bad weekend overall.

One more cherry on top: having BYU (-2.5), giving up all hope when Toledo drives to the red zone with a minute left, then BYU forces a fumble. A minute left to get within field goal range and win the game and my bet! Hurray! And what does BYU do? Throw a near pick six that's punched in on the next play.

Don't bet, kids.

Anyway, on to this week's lines.

• Temple (-10.5): Eastern Carolina is averaging 13 points against P5 competition as compared to allowing 32. They are sporting two blowout losses to NC State and Navy and a squeaker of a win against powerhouse ODU. Temple is coming off holding GT to 2 points. Holy shit the other tech is straight garbage. Temple will cover.
• UNCHeat (-10):UNCHeat is coming off an emotional last second loss to the #1 team in the nation. They are due for a hangover game. Counterpoint. GT is coming off of a game where they managed a whopping 2 points on offence defense. Holy shit the other tech is straight garbage. UNCHeat will cover.
• Miami (-13.5): I'm as depressed as anyone about how our season is going. However, the coastal is awful from top to bottom. We are a combined 1-7 against ranked teams (still not sure how Pitt beat UCF). Our best argument for a clear leader is LOLUVa, which looks like a middling Frank Beamer team stumbling to 10 wins in a weak conference only to get smacked down in a championship game and embarrassed in a bowl game. Everyone's best wins are against objectively crappy coastal foes. And, holy shit, the other tech is straight garbage. Putting a quarter on the Tech ML, not because I think we'll win, but I because believe in coastal chaos and we're due a lucky bounce.
• UGa (-25): You know what looks better than a 4 TD blowout of a shitty FCS program? a 4 TD blowout of a shitty SEC program. I'm betting against Tennessee until I get proven otherwise.
• Auburn (-3): Auburn has knocked off a ranked aTm and a ranked Oregon and blown out everyone else on their schedule. Florida fell ass backwards into beating Miami and barely handled Kentucky. I know this is supposed to be a powerhouse meeting of two undefeated storied programs, but I don't see Auburn letting this one stay close.

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
