I don't consider this stirring the pot, rather a drunken rampage by somebody who put too much money on a bunch of white kids from Idaho and didn't want to comprehend that they aren't a great team. The name-calling seems unnecessary. Also, byu tried to hand you the cover with that fake punt. Just a neutral observation.
I had Boise my friend. We only lost by 6, and that was with two pick 6's, 2 missed fg's, a td called back, 5 to's I think, and one of the worst coaching deciaions by an opponent that I've ever seen going for the fake punt in his own end zone. You can't make this shit up! We just witnessed it!
It's over now. We vented. On to the next game.
I am not here to argue about a "fix" or whatever, but MF! you gotta be kidding me, the best players on offense for Boise.... Rypien, McNichols, Spurbeck, (sorry if I am not spot on on the names, still tired from that shit show) all turned the ball over 1+. I mean, I understand at times QB trying to make a play, and offensive players don't know how to tackle on the first pick 6. also, not even being able to fair catch a punt?? also, BYU was in such a giving mood with that bizarre fake punt. I mean, I cant even go through every moment that happened. BYU backers know that you stole that one, and honestly cant tell me that Boise shouldn't have covered. for me, I only lost some juice last night thanks to VT & GB but good lord...I think BSU backers are def owed one now....ALSO, college kickers man....ok I feel better, on to fri/sat...LOL
i past out at begining of the 2h but i had boise -7 at halftime i thought wow 2h boise has to be a great play considered doubling up but not at a worse line glad i laid off wokeup and checked the score and see they almost lost.. i mean 2 blocked fg's 3 or 4 fumbles and a couple of int's vs 0 turnovers i believe by byu. boise should have hammered them w.e was a 2-1 night sucks the one loser was a juicy -7
When you out stat a team by 250yds they usually cover -7, but it's tough to win a game when going -5 in turnovers, much less cover. It's kind of a bad beat, but that's just the way it goes sometimes and you just have to roll with the punches because if you are betting big money on these games you had better buckle up and be prepared for a bumpy ride, there will be more games like this coming. If these types of losses are going to send you off the rails my advice would be to cut back your bet size, it makes these types of losses much easier to swallow. Less stress, less incentive to chase, etc and you are likely to end up making better decisions with a higher win % in the long run.
I was on BYU and bet it Sunday night because I've watched Boise play and they aren't heads and tails way better than BYU. BYU isn't as talented as Boise but they've been playing teams really tough all year. They have some quality wins on their record.
The "fix" talk and all the other stuff is noise about being on the right side. I've been on the losing side plenty and it doesn't feel good but the right side is the winning side in this business.
I hope the OP didn't bet above his head on this game. I don't like to see people lose money.
No disrespect here. My play on BYU was my favorite play of the week. I told my boy aloha_4_da_winner that Byu's defense will keep them in this game and might just win it for them as well. That was just a feeling I had. This was before we all knew that Williams was not playing for byu. Which, if he had, would've been a whole different outcome. I think we all can agree with that.
Byu had a way tougher schedule than Boise. And BYU was close to winning every one of those losses. If Boise had Byu's schedule chances are they wouldn't be undefeated. So I gladly took the 7.5 pts thinking they had a shot to win outright. Personally, I didn't understand all the love for Boise.
And yes, we can say that the one underthrown pass and one tipped ball that led to pick 6's don't usually happen to Boise but we can easily say that about the underthrown ball to a wide open receiver and and a last second tipped ball out of a Byu's receivers hand that would've clearly been td's for Byu shouldn't have happened either. BYU could have easily been up by 2 scores in the 3rd. But mistakes, penalties and just things that happen in football happened. Same with Boise. Either way, 7.5 pts to a team that has been in every game this year until the end is not an easy cover.
