I was pretty pumped seeing as I had the other side.

Then I noticed Mich st. and Indiana crumbled at the last minute.

Saturdays can be very stressful.

Had Minn in a ML parlay but....WTF was the kicker thinking???

Only 30 seconds left-take the SAFETY and go from there. It is absolutley amazing how many players/coaches are unaware of the game situations!!:icon_conf

Ain't that the god damn truth.... Went 2-3 on early games. Tried betting 4 1st half plays: Mich -2, tex -7.5, over 34 ND and Louisville -3.5 and i get kicked off line (we live in the god damn sticks and can't get cable or dsl).. Try for 15 minutes and just as i get to the confirm screen they pull all the games. What do you think happened????? Stressful ain't the word, more like maddening!!!

Found out the reason for the phone problem. Turns out a spider made a web where the connection is inside the box. Instead of being up $1750 i am down $250.I am ready to kill someone..What a fucking day:hump:

No shit. All the special teams coaches have to worry about is special teams and ALL the possibilities and contingincies.

The coach has to tell his players, especially since they were deep in their own end for 3 plays, in 5 to 10 minutes of real time, " Son, if it's a bad snap, turn arond and throw it out of the back of the end zone" or somthing similar.

Sure, the kid fucked up, but that is what the coaches are there for, to have a "Plan B" just in case, and they didn't.

The blocked FG at the end of the 1st half in the Mich St game really changed that game too.

With all the taking the safety in question. I would like to ask, would it be the same thing if he just threw the ball away and take it as a 4th down lost? Then hoping they could stop them or forced a FG to OverTime? Just a question and I'm trying to learn this as I lost huge on these dumbasses.

freebie, That certainly was one possibility. When the punter dropped the ball at the 5 yd line, he panicked. He was only thinking of one thing, kick the ball as fast as he can. If he had any brains, as soon as he dropped the ball he should of picked the ball up, spun around and kick the ball out of his own end zone.

Gophers would still be up by one and punting the ball from their own 20.

actually that might have been a bad thing to do. from where he was standing he almost assuredly would have been called for intentional grounding and that is a SPOT foul meaning from where he threw the ball is where Wisky woulda gotten it

like others have said HE MUST be told BEFORE he runs on to the field if ANYTHING goes wrong - take the safety and we are still winning
