WTF IS GOING ON..

2 weeks ago I lost a 9 team ML parlay on a play that never should have been run as 17 point fav OK STATE lost outright

I didn't think things could get worse..and then they did

Friday night Baylor a 30 point favorite, is leading by 28 in the 4th Q when they get a first down on the Rice 9..The coach then proceeds to order 4 straight running plays up the middle as the announcer says he is friends with the Rice coach and doesn't want to hurt his feelings..SAY WHAT! How about the second teamers who sweat their asses off in the 100 degree Texas heat. Don't they deserve to hit the box score? Oh right..Briles recruits not yours.. Not to mention 2 missed field goals

NICE GUYS..OR POINT SHAVERS? HMMMMM

Then shortly after, with 29 seconds left into the game the Utah state (9-10 point favorites) coach team has a 7 point lead runs the ball into the end zone for a covering td when a kneel down could have ended the game. I guess he doesn't have any friends

those 2 plays cost me a $630 swing..what a way to start the weekend..

Saturday:

NMEXICO blows a 21 point lead by giving up 4 plays over 60 yds . One play is a punt return for a td right before the half right after the announcer says , Grant is a dangerous punt returner 1 kickoff return away from tying the Big 10 record for return touchdowns, of course they'll kick it out of bounds..OF COURSE BOB THE BOOB DAVIS KICKED IT RIGHT TO HIM,,BYE BYE,,still Nmexico got a first down in the red zone , 3 horrible play calls later they go for a chip shot field goal that would be a cover..MISS

VIRGINA has a chance to send in a kicker for a real chip shot to send the game into OT but they don't have anyone on the team that has kicked a field goal this year? SAY WHAT! No one who has kicked a field goal? He misses a 22 yarder..not even close

HOW CAN 2 MAJOR COLLEGE TEAMS NOT HAVE A KICKER IN THIS DAY AND AGE...YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP

DONE BITCHING..FOR NOW

OBSERVATIONS

As predicted JOKELAHOMA and NOTRE LAME lose as they apparently have decided they do not want to play in the FINAL FOUR this yr.. BOOB STUPES AND KELLY
, 2 guys who deserve it . Couldn't be happier. Don't worry, they way they are playing . IOWA AND LSU will be joining you on the side lines shortly.

it's amazing , Mark Dantonio gets the most out of the least year after year, while Stupes (not a typo) gets the least out of the most.. Hard to believe so many people and services had Oklahoma as their play of the year..URBAN VS STUPES even up..SAY WHAT?!

Louisville is for real..What an ass whooping.Hard to see anyone holding that offense down

finally:

ASU/CAL HOW DOES THIS GAME STAY UNDER 90..ONLY 1 OF 2 WAYS

RED ZONE TURNOVERS
REFEREE MANIPULATIONS calling back big plays time after time

THANKS FOR LETTING ME VENT..Feel free to post yours

Hang in there, CFB has definitely been a bit tricky so far.

Food for thought. Last week 25 out of the 55 "main board" college football games had final scores that fell within a TD of the closing line. So, nearly 50% of games are decided ATS by one score or less, which, as we know, can a lot of times come in the form of pick sixes at the end of games, turnovers, fumbles, missed or made FG, etc. As the volume of games on your card gets higher, the more likely these situations will affect you. The goal is to find as many games (winning sides of course) that fall out in that other 50% - games that are never in doubt, and one bounce here or there is the difference between money in and money out. Keep your head up Metfan - keep capping the games the way you do, and these results will even out over time.

College football handicapping (betting) is not for the timid or weak-hearted, especially today. The game has changed so much, even during the past 10 years not to mention from 50 years ago. There is so much parity when schools like North Dakota State knocks off highly ranked Iowa and the Wisconsin Badgers eek-out a win against "natural rival" Georgia State (that's right, Sate) in Madison you know the "easy pickings" in sports betting is long gone.

Been feeling the same way Brotha. Mostly with NFL for me. What should've been a 4-1 day turns into a 1-4 because of some "just so happen" kind of plays. But as I was frustrated i was reminded that this exactly why we're addicted to this. Because it is the unknown and anything can happen at any time. You make a pick and then a multitude of factors determine whether that pick is gonna be right or not. Even the factor of being "fixed". ������

It just seems this year that FG potential is completely gone. I havent seen this many missed FGs in years. I mean teams are going for it on 4-3 at the 10 now a days...

Its seems like a lost art.....NFL and COLLEGE....

It's time to train the nephews to start kicking FG's!!!

Completely agree w/ you PW.

I mean, college kicking has always been flat out HORRIBLE.........from what my memory serves in the last 5 or 6 years....haven't seen anything like it. It's flat out, pathetic.
