USC -7

MICHIGAN

Vinnie:

I don't have a strong opinion on the total, but a slight lean to Over 59. I do not expect a shootout, as I expect USC to open up a lead and then separate from Michigan. Michigan could then put up late points which could send the total over. Hope this helps you in your decision. Good luck to you whatever you decide.

 

[Co-Captain]

Dam Ted, my book had it Purdue +3 after all that a push. You had +3.5 , dam I should of bought point. Lets get the Usc and Fl St. game. aloha cc.

TED:

MAYBE GEORGIA WILL GET THIS BACK FOR ME IN OT..

I DID LAY THE TWO DIMES ON USC-7

AND PARLEY USC AND UNDER 60

 

[oldmanTED]

Captain:

That's a shame. I thought you had +3.5. I'm sorry to hear that. If you didn't read my latest update to my thread, I made the decision to increase my play on USC to a rare 5* play for me. Let's watch the Trojans bring us home and then follow-up with the Seminoles. If the Trojans win, I may come back and bump Florida State. Be sure to check back.

 

[oldmanTED]

Mario:

You certainly have a good shot with the game going into OT. Good luck.

 

[oldmanTED]

SSI:

Sorry I missed your response. I do hope this play is successful particularly since you have trusted your hard earned money with my thoughts. Hope everything works out as envisioned. Good luck to you.

Guys:

Promised to be back to let you know if I was going to increase my play on Florida State in the Orange Bowl. I have decided, in fact, to increase my play from 1* to 3*. I still feel that the results of the first meeting were skewed by the heavy rainstorm that caused FSU into 4 turnovers and a blocked kick in the first half, thereby falling behind 22-0. They held Miami scoreless in the second half and put up 14 points once they settled. I will edit my thread accordingly. Good luck to everyone.

Thnx for the picks Ted, you be on fire last 2 days so I'm going with you on FSU. Hope FSU doesnt turn the ball over to the tough Caines secondary, if no turnovers we be cruisin!!

Thanks for the picks Ted - Even though I thought I needed to add a bet on the over in the USC game. Gonna get up early in the morning and head for the boats in KC and was wondering what thoughts you had on the OK St/Miss game tomorrow. With the choices I'm making, I need a steadier hand guiding this ship (haha). Thanks in advance.

SSI:

I will post my plays tomorrow. One for sure will be Mississippi. The other two games are undecided particularly the Kansas State/Ohio State game that is now off the board due to the questions regarding KS QB Roberson. Glad we won tonight. Take care of that bankroll.

 

[oldmanTED]

Reb:

Thanks for the words of support. We need some help with FSU. Good luck to you as well.

Guru & JWB:

Thanks for the encouragement. Hope you had a good day. Regarding tomorrow, one of my plays will be Mississippi. The other two games are undecided at this point.
