Oldmans Second Half Thoughts

[oldmanTED]

Other then the first drive when Jason White had success on broken plays and the last possession, this game has been all Trojans. Sooners coaching staff have only game planned for Reggie Bush and not Lendale White or the passing game. Plus, the Sooners are making all the mistakes, two fumbles, two interceptions. They get the opening kick-off in the second half and the Trojans will probably do more running once they feel the game is fully secured and one more touchdown should to do that. Trojans also are normally very solid defensively in the second half but with such a large lead they may ease up a bit. Hence, consider lightly playing the following:

USC +3.5 or better or USC ML +177

Take USC and the points. OU has a tendancy to quit.

OMT thanks for the input im hitting the sack early hopefully with some profits in my pocket as long as USC holds up and Petterson stays below 108.5 !

The Trojans defense is good enough to keep the Sooners from reaching 38 points to tie. As far as Peterson, don't know how many yards he has at the half but I'll be rooting for you. Best of luck and nice play on the Trojans.

Thanks. Hope you caught the Trojans in the second half. If not, there will be other plays in the future.

I hope Hitman caught this thread as it was he who requested that I make this post tonight if I had a play for the second half.

 

[GREENHEAD]

I did Ted,Thankyou Im happy to show a small profit for the night.Horses is where I accell,I or we have to figure out a way where I can throw you a bone on a GOOD horse bet.Its the least I can do considering how much youve helped me and my family.

As you may recall, I have been involved in horse racing one way or another since 1972. Use to breed horses, but currently just enjoy the two biggest racing days, the Derby and the Breeder's Cup. That being said, if you have a horse that you like or have knowledge of, consider posting it in the horse racing forum or start a thread looking for me and I'll pick up on it.

You got it !!!!
