ALKIMYST 2014-15 BOWL THREAD!!! Happy Holidays!!!

[alkimyst]

Closed out the regular season with a nice 2-0 weekend. 58-44 for the season....hope we can continue that same level of efficiency moving into the postseason.

 

[alkimyst]

OHIO ST +10--20*-- I think this line will drop, but I will be willing to add more if it climbs as we approach January. Really think that the Buckeyes, given a month to prep, will be a formidable test for an Alabama team that everyone seems so in love with. Let's go Buckeyes!

 

[alkimyst]

GTECH--+7.5--10*--Really like running dogs in the postseason. Also tend to look for teams who will be motivated, and play against those that might be somewhat disappointed to be in a particular bowl. This game falls into all those categories. Another game that I may end up upgrading as the New Year approaches. GTECH has played hard all year, and they should continue to want to shine in their bowl game, whereas Miss St might be in for a bit of a letdown.

Miami -2.5--20*--Think the Hurricanes have too much speed for a below average Gamecock squad. How did SC even squeak into a bowl???

I already locked this play in. Everyone I ve spoken with think bama rolls which makes me feel better about my play. Imo, urban meyer is one of the top coaches in sports. Not football. Sports. The guy is a master recruiter as shown this year when you re down to your third string qb. This kid now has a month to prepare, and I understand saban will also have time to dissect this kid.

I think OSU will be all the way in this game and I ll also be playing a portion on the ml. I absolutely love meyer getting dds here.

 

[alkimyst]

Agree with everything you said, Bobby. Best of luck to you!

Rice ML -130--10*

Fresno is NOT a very good football team. I think Rice, though no juggernaut themselves, should be able to mice the ball at will here. If Rice avoids turnovers, they should win easily.

 

[alkimyst]

Sam Houston St +17--10*

 

[alkimyst]

Starting off on the wrong four, and it wasn't even a bowl game!!

0-1

-11 units

 

[alkimyst]

Today....

Western Michigan -130--10*
Bowling Green +3--10*

Western is simply the better cream in my opinion. Bowling Green, well.... Just hold your nose and betthem. IIt's probably going to be a slow, ugly game.

 

[alkimyst]

Solid typing by me earlier today with a massive hangover.

Well done!!

 

[alkimyst]

1-2 on the bowl season.

-24 units.

Looks like I'm bucking a pretty big board consensus here, but I think Mph will be the more motivated team today. Also looking for a defensive battle with both tea. Stan trying to run the ball throughout. Run clock, run clock, run!!

Good luck!!

Memphis -120--20*
Memphis under 56--10*

 

[alkimyst]

Change of heart on Memphis total.... Looking for points now.

Scratching Memphis under.

Scratching Memphis under.




Memphis over 56--20*


Good luck!!

Alki.........good luck with your action today...........you and your family have a great Holiday..........indy

 

[alkimyst]

Thanks, Indy!!

Same to you and yours.

Merry Christmas!!

 

[alkimyst]

Nice turnaround today!!

Glad a late tip saved me the Byu total. Sometimes u get it right. Memphis was a pretty lucky win, though for a time it looked like they completely had the game in hand. A little luck never hurts anyone though.

2-0 today.

3-2 for bowls

+16 units.

 

[alkimyst]

Sdsu -3--10*

 

[alkimyst]

Had another change of heart. This must be how my wife feels when shopping for shoes....

Maybe I catch a side.

Navy +3.5--30*

Still got 10* riding on SDSU at -3.

Good luck!!

 

[SerfCap]

Why the change in heart though?

 

[cashflow50]

game in san diego but theres a huge naval base there, so that trumps home field advantage.
