Vlyrock's Betting Plays Week 7

[Vlyrock]

I do not like many games this week -- and I hate that I have to pick 6. I don't feel comfortable with but 1, maybe 2...so I'd recommend not listening to me this week. With that being said, here are my picks for this week.

My bet the house pick:
Nebraska (-2.5) @ Baylor (*NOTE* I bought 1.5 points, and moved the line to 1, just in case Baylor keeps it close)

Georgia -16 @ Vanderbilt (I bought a point and moved the line to 15)
Toledo -20 @ Ball State (I bought a point and moved it to 19)
Wyoming -7 vs New Mexico
UCLA -5½ @ Washington State
Florida State -7 @ Virginia

[Loftin]

I like these:

South Florida(+2) @ Pitt
Northwestern(+7.5) @ Purdue
East Carolina(+1.5) @ SMU
Rutgers(+2.5) @ Syracuse
Tulsa(-7) @ Rice
UCLA(-5.5) @ Washington State
UTEP(-7) @ Tulane
Auburn(-7.5) @ Arkansas
@Houston(-10) vs. Memphis

UCLA wins big. Washington State lost to Stanford. Stanford was beat down by a Div. II school.

How does anyone feel about Penn State +3 Over Michigan?

[CoolaidWade]

Nevermind about Penn St. It's been done. This week I have 4.

Nebraska -2.5 @ Gaylor
Penn St. +3 @ Michigan
UCLA -6 @ Washington St.
Florida St. -7.5 (SUCKS) @ Virginia.

I'm not feeling good about this week. Maybe, hopefully, I'll get close to even money.

LOFTIN:
South Florida(+2) @ Pitt (I wouldn't touch Pitt with a 10 foot pole for or against)
Northwestern(+7.5) @ Purdue (Northwestern always loses after pulling off an upset and they're not at home -- a TD is a lot to win by for them)
East Carolina(+1.5) @ SMU -- SMU beat UAB. This is still probably a decent bet.
Rutgers(+2.5) @ Syracuse -- Which Rutgers shows up? SU is at home, they might play well...that's why I stayed away.
Tulsa(-7) @ Rice -- This is a good bet.
UCLA(-5.5) @ Washington State -- Bet this one
UTEP(-7) @ Tulane -- UTEP never wins when I bet on them...so you'll probably win since I didn't.
Auburn(-7.5) @ Arkansas -- The half point may get you here...Auburn should win/
@Houston(-10) vs. Memphis -- Memphis' RB always makes them a question mark...

[Loftin]

Northwestern(+7.5) @ Purdue (Northwestern always loses after pulling off an upset and they're not at home -- a TD is a lot to win by for them)

NU is the underdog. I'm not saying they'll win by a TD, I'm saying that they'll stay within a TD of an awful Purdue team.

[Vlyrock]

Yeah, i'm dumb and read that wrong...maybe that half point will save you. Purdue wins by at least a TD. :D

[True Blue Aggie]

Colorado / Texas Over 53
Toledo -21 (Big play on this one...)
Oklahoma St. +20
UConn -7.5
Auburn -7.5
Tulsa -7.5

That looks to be about it for the moment..... :gig:

Can someone please explain to me why Penn St. is getting points from a three-loss Michigan team?

It's @Michigan. Michigan's losses all came by 7 points or less, and to ranked teams. Most people are expecting them to wake up and play to their potential. Also, Penn State's only road game this year was a 5-point nail-biter against Northwestern.

[True Blue Aggie]

Quoted from another site....

PSU is 0-6 vs. Michigan there last 6.. 1-5 vs. the spread.. PSU is still the same team that SHOULD HAVE lost on the road to NW 3 weeks ago... PSU is awful on the road.. 2-8 vs the number and they should have lost to NW this year... Its to bad that the one time during this decade that PSU could have beat MICHIGAN they are facing them after a loss at home with a BOWL and there PRIDE on the line...

MICHIGAN 27 -- PSU 17

[Vlyrock]

My bets so far... (3-2)

MY BET THE HOUSE & ALL YOUR MONEY PICK
WNebraska (-1) Nebraska 23-14

W Toledo (-19) (that bought point was huge!) Toledo 34-14
L Wyoming -7 New Mexico 27-24
L UCLA -5½ (if UCLA had the ball first in OT, probably would've covered)UCLA 44-41
W Georgia -15 Georgia 34-17

Florida State -7 @ Virginia

[Vlyrock]

Wyoming just got screwed. Ref called a missed field goal on one that looked good to the other 60,000 people in the stadium, the announcers, myself, and anybody else, except the ref on that side...(they need to put cameras in the posts so they can review good field goals)

[True Blue Aggie]

Im not having the best day at the moment.....

Colorado / Texas Over 53 WIN (thank you colorado)
Toledo -21 (Big play on this one...) LOSS
Oklahoma St. +20 LOSS (small bet though just to help the AGS win)
UConn -7.5 LOSS
Auburn -7.5 (This one needs to hit for me to have a good overall evening)
Tulsa -7.5 WIN (should have bet more on this one)

[Vlyrock]

Well, I finished 3-3 this week. I'll take .500 when I wasn't sure about any of them.

More importantly though, I loaded up on Nebraska -- so it wasn't really a .500 week.

What's funny is that I thought UCLA and South Florida were the surest bets of the 9 I made.

[CoolaidWade]

I'm .500 from the above pics I made. But the two games I won I bet a little heavier so I actually made a little cash today. Not much but winning is always better then losing.

[Loftin]

Breaking even is winning. Anything you bring home is awesome, no matter how small.

[True Blue Aggie]

3-3 also on posted plays....

Ill have to post up my NFL plays today to try and help that record.... :gig:
