Geek is Back and Pickin' away!!

[Geek]

Hope everyone has been doing well and glad to be back. Unfortunately I've missed a lot of good College Football, but still a lot of great games to go!!

When I last left, the results were Not Good. Went 6-6 and my Quadruple play LOST and overall I went 2-3 on Triple plays and higher. Very disapointed on what I thought was a pretty good card. Overall, 38-24 61% Winners on the year with the Triple plays going 13-8, 62%. So still up on the year and looking to run the table today!!!

Triple Plays:

****Kansas +20 over Kansas State. A good Jayhawks team keep close by running the ball and keeping the Wildcat offense off the field. Good rivalry game between the schools but the Jayhawks are ready to compete this year. If it Kansas, I would predict an outright winner, but K-State is a tough place to play. But 20 points is too many, expect the Jayhawks to keep it to a one score game in a hard fought battle. LOSS

****Penn State +10' over Iowa. Paterno will have the troops ready going into Iowa this week off a much needed bye week. The bye will give the Lions some time to heal, reconnect, focus, and execute against Iowa. Iowa comes off a tough battle against Ohio State and the well rested Lions should have enough to stay with Iowa and may even catch them off guard. But we'll take the 10' points anyway. LOSS

Other Plays:

**UNC +13 Over Clemson WINNER!!!
**BG -3' Over No. Illinois (will end the N.IL BCS Talk) WINNER!!!
**C.Fla -7 over C.Mich WINNER!!!
**Utah St -8' over Ark. State WINNER!!!

GL Everyone!!

Welcome back Geek! Another good looking card.
I have to admit I like a ton of chalk today, and it scares me.
Good call on Kansas, they run the ball very well, and KSU is still overrated.

Hey Big 12, how'd you do in while I was away?!!? Hopefully kicking ass. K-State does have a good run stop unit, but Kansas can play keep away and they still should be able to run the ball and mix in the pass plays to keep it close!!

Who you got going today?!?! Always dig your plays.

Geek, just got back from Vegas so I haven't been on the board for 2 weeks now. Great trip, lost a ton of money playing black jack!

Lots of chalk going today. Hopefully it's a BCS statement week, and not a look ahead week for many of these teams.

G/L to you today.

Black Jack is a game of HUGE Swings. I don't play a lot but when I do, I either win a couple of grand, or drop a couple of grand. Don't get to the Casino a lot. Good luck today and hope the chalk comes through!!!

Thanks EGD, hope things are working out a little better for ya than me so far. Went 4 wins, 2 loses in the early games, but the Triple Plays are stinking up the Joint. Woulda been nice if Kansas and Penn State actually SHOWED UP

Must move on and the Regular plays are 4-0!!!!.....

Triple Plays:

****Auburn +3 to beat LSU. This game should be tight all game long, but look for the Auburn running game and defense to take control and hold off LSU 20-10. LOSS

****Arkansas PK to beat Ole Miss. Like the Hogs running game to control the ball and the clock. Turnovers have killed them and Ole Miss defense isn't good enough to stop the Hogs rushing attack. The Arkansas defense should force Manning into turnovers leading to the Arkansas victory 30-21. LOSS

Other Plays:

**UCLA -3 over Arizona State. Arizona State is woefull. The balance offense and defense of UCLA should prevail rather easily. WINNER!!!
**Oregon State +7' to upset Washington State. WINNER!!! MIRACLE SAFETY?!?!
**SD State -3 over Wyoming. WINNER!!!
**Mid Ten St +3 to beat N.Texas. LOSS

Geek, like the Razorbacks but I gotta go against ya on the LSU/Aub game. Cadillac has been playing well.... but you just don't rush on LSU and Campbell the QB for Auburn is one of the worst in the country. I like LSU to win this one easily.

Hope your others cash!

Had a good start to today.. Chalk is flying today. ONLY loss so far is the KU game, and they got there ass kicked!

G/L tonight, and I'll catch you in the a.m.

BTF.

Thanks Big 12. Looking for a big rebound here in the late games. Kansas was a major disapointment as was the other Triple Plays 0-2. Should've switched my normal plays (4-0)with the triple plays as they are doing pretty good!

Friggin HORRIBLE Day. Couldn't hit a triple play for nothing today.

UCLA and SD State are the only teams preventing losses of a biblical proportion. Just a Rotten day no matter what the outcome. Took a real beaten, I hope everyone else had better luck.

Geek

***************** UPDATE **************

Well, Updating the late action, UCLA and SD State came through for me putting me at 7-5 for the day. Still lost all 4 Triple Plays to put me down for the day, but atleast it was a little more respectable!!!

On the Season so far:
38-24 Overall 61%

Triple Plays, 13-12 52%

Gotta improve on the triple plays. My money makers aren't making money the money lately, but will bounce back next week!!!

Geek, tough luck today. I ended up going 4-2 posted.

Also won a small unposted bet on Iowa, so it turned out to be a pretty good day for me. Don't hang the head though, got NFL going tomorrow. Looking to keep it going.

Best of luck tomorrow!

BTF.

Flat unit betting only way...I've said this before, Geeks a good picker, just got to limit those "3 star plays" and stuff, lol... Still more winners than losers, nothing wrong with that..

 

[Geek]

Thanks mhk, I do have to limit those plays to one or two a week. I will change my gameplan a bit and hit'em hard next week. Just when I break down games, look at stats and intangibles, usually a handfull stick out. I need to break those games down a little more and let the cream of the crop, rise to the top.

I've seen too many guys go 3-2, 4-2, 2-1, and lose cash.. Good, solid picks.. BR management hurt'em.. A guy from M.I.T. will understand... Treat them all the same..
