Anyone playing the Boise State and Virginia Tech game? This damn spread has jumped around so much the past week.

The first time I saw it was Boise State -3.5 and now it is Virginia Tech -1. What gives? I like Virginia Tech and think they will play very physical, great defense and win the game so I'll probably bet the Hokies.

+1

i'm invested in Boise for the season so i'm trying my hardest to lay off tonight's game, but if it keeps moving I may have to play it.

Boise is gonna be scary good this year and they actually have 2 big name teams to beat that will stamp their resume as legitimate. VT's gonna have trouble stopping the run tonight, and I can't trust Tyrod Taylor to bring them back.

may go under with all the running we're sure to see

AGAIN WITH THE BETTING $1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It must be something with my browser where it resets my bet on Bodog to risk of $1. It has happened three times now in the past year ... all on winners.

After an average day on Saturday (+2 units), Monday ended MUCH more favorable. (and kind of funny!)

Perfect day in football.

Maryland SU +200
Boise St. +1 1/2
(P) Boise St. +1 1/2 and O 54.


The funny part was, I swore that I went Boise St U 54 and gave up on the cheap bet that I threw in the parlay. So going into the 4th, I kept thinking to myself, why the hell would I have taken the under? I specifically looked at both of these teams in detail. So I finally grabbed my phone, logged in saw that it was the Over. Nothing like going to sleep with a big grin on your face. This is the first time in almost a year that I can remember doing something boneheaded like that.

the turnovers and boneheaded penalties made that game go over, I'd probably make that play again.

Always great to win a bet you think you lost though :lol:

i didn't start very well, either.

It's a marathon not a sprint, though.

...still don't understand 20 points in the last 2 minutes in Manhattan as that was the swing in my week

LoL, harsh... shows what we know. I'll try to remember to put in my units placed on each bet for future weeks. I've only been doing this for 2 full seasons now and this is the first time that I'm using a unit inc/dec wagering system. Before I just chucked some parlays together and prayed for the big hit.

i'd like to keep it going to see how (bad) we all do for the season. It never seems to work, but if ppl can post before the game starts then I think we can count it, or ppl can come clean and say they went 0-2 for the day or something. I just can't handle someone coming in saying they had North Dakota State straight up against Kansas or somethign :lol:

I'm assuming everything is -110

Yeah, it'll be pretty cool.

I'm a bit of an odd ball, where I'll make a play like I did with Maryland yesterday +200... or my parlay's, so I'll try to keep those separate from my standard bets against the spread.

A friend just mentioned that the Noles are +8.5 right now... which should be about +220 to +250 SU... that's a risk I'd be willing to take.
