Hi Nordy. I would like to veg on the couch all day. Instead today is my daughter's 4th birthday party at Goldfish. I am going to shovel some snow and hit the gym first. Who are we betting on?

I would enjoy wagering but have no faith in any of them.

Took Hou, UCF u, Tol o and NM... don't love the NM bet as much in hindsight... but it is in and at least I get to watch Scrub Davie

Good rule of thumb is to bet the favs early. They are usually mismatches. After the first few days it becomes a guessing game as to which team gives a fuck.

I usually fade teams off a big last game loss, interim HC, etc. Minny is looking like a solid fade opportunity if they repost the line. LSU maybe too.

I was kinda leaning Houston and Toledo so I might take a shallow dive in there.

by **Nordic** 2016-12-17, 12:18

When Herman left I was iffy on Houston. Once they hired Applewhite I jumped in.

FTR the above should read Toledo over

Getting chippy in the grambling state game?

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2016-12-17, 14:01

I just put a wooden nickel on NM -6 1h.

Grambling up 7 gives up a bomb with two minutes left to North Carolina central. Receiver who scores from NCC takes his helmet off and runs around the field celebrating. Gets a 15. NCC misses the extra point. Grambling is going to win 10-9.

Houston DC Todd Orlando has agreed to a deal with #Texas, according to a report during the Las Vegas Bowl. #Horns

Houston is going to look a lot different next year.

How does Pomphrey's Bowl game rushing stats count but not Ron Dayne's??

San Diego State’s star is officially your new all-time FBS rushing leader. But that requires inconsistent accounting

Yeah, this is dumb.

Brent Musburger is having the time of his life not having to use his 5dimes account down in Vegas. I can tell you he bet Houston -3.5 and the over just by his comments in this game.

by **Nordic** 2016-12-17, 18:28

Misfired on the Herman impact. Sorry Loose. Thought Major Applebag would have them hype.

Yeah I had the exact opposite thought process before this game. Applesack is a headcase and this team has been so fade-able late in the year. Meanwhile SDSU is sneaky good and deserved more attention this year.

You can always tell where Burgler's action is

I had them on fade when Herman left. But when they hired from within and their OC...I flipped.

Houston's D gave up in the 2nd half.

ESPN has tried to bury him for thinking what most men are while watching football. The spread, total and how hot the QB's girlfriend is.

by **Nordic** 2016-12-17, 19:27

20+ secs left in the half in the Tol/AppSt game. AppSt is 4th & 10 from the 50ish...AppSt punts...

Toledo doesn't go for the punt block. Pussy move IMO... but OK you are playing it safe.

Punt is driven to the 10 and the Toledo guy feilds it. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU EVEN HAVE A GUY BACK TO FEILD A PUNT. He fair catches it, but there is absolutely nothing to.gain by touching the ball. Save the AppSt can down it at the 1/2 yard line...this isn't All the Right Moves and Chris Penn ain't fumbling the ball. Way higher probability the punt returner muffs it and AppSt gets the ball.

But it gets better...

Toledo lines up in shotgun...shotgun teams can't ride the center...which is bullshit. BUT THEY HAND THE BALL OFF AND DUDE IS FIGHTING FOR YARDS.

Yep AppSt had a TO (or two). But that is just idoitic football. Go for the block...let the punt land on the turf...learn to ride the center...kneel on the ball.

And I have the over, so I would of loved for Toledo to bumble that ball away.

Yeah seems like we have different opinions on M Apple. I won this game, hopefully we're on the same page on other games though. Degens degen together.
