Likes/dislikes? Gonna post some later. Did VERY WELL last weekend so have a lot of "house money" to throw around. This is going to be a great weekend of games as well.

I don't like that many games this week. Didn't look at any o/u, but first glance at the spreads I like

USC -6.5 over Arizona
OSU -1 over Penn State
Moneyline Washington over Oregon State

Last week was golden for me too going 12-5 then hitting a 5 team parlay thanks to the Cowboys late score. I don't like a lot of games this week. I do however like the USC game and took a stab at Washington because OSU has to lose sometime, right? I'm staying away from The OSU-- as they've killed me this year. I'll be more confident in year 2. OSU getting 2.5 early was tempting, but they have to lose sometime too. I'm thinking of taking on a 10pt pleaser of MSU -4.5/ UCLA -4.5/ NCST -3.5.

I just put $75 on Cincinnati +3.5 for tonight. Crazy? Feel really confident about the spread for some reason.

Cant believe MSU is a 24 point underdog to Bama.

You Cray! I like Louisville to win 30-23. I always love it when you get that .5 on the 3 or 7 points tho lol.

I made 3 bets for Saturday...

$70 10 point teaser to win $58.50- Duke + 37.5, NCST +17.5, USC +3.5
$25 7 point teaser to win $300- BYU +9.5, Duke +34.5, Rutgers -6.5, Kentucky +20,5, NCST +14.5, Ohio +0, TCU + 14.5, Tennessee +21, USC +.5
Then my crazy $5 parlay to win $1,500 are the 9 teams above adjust the 7 points lol.

Did well last weekend. I wouldn't rely so much on one game, but it's a Friday night, Kettle bell training, grilling out and football to watch? Ready to do the same tomorrow...good weekend!

Damn I need to get an account set up online. Reading this about parlays and teasers has me jealous. I go through a friend now and am up pretty good but can't do teasers and parlays.

I'm not really into the whole betting thing but for the last one you put 5$ down and pick 9 games and if all beat the spread you get 1500?

I usually use Sportsbook.com. Never have problems with deposits or payments. I've cashed out a few times and the check arrives promptly. There are other ones out there too, I'm sure you can get some recommendations on here.

I actually set up an account on Sportsbook but haven't made a deposit. One of these days I'll make my first deposit and it will be game over for me, haha.

Dude if you bet NFL... the sportsbook site every week they have this perfect parlay challenge... you get 16 games and its either the spread or over/under... if you get them all correct its 100k... and the top 3 records for the week get money, 1st gets 500, 2nd gets 250, and 3rd gets 100.

And yes crimson but its pretty much a huge long shot lol. 2 weeks ago I almost won 1500 just putting a dollar down on the spread for 12 NFL games.(FUCK YOU PATRIOTS).

I've never really done prop bets unless it was the super bowl but yeah I'm sure there are some good ones. I did a few last year for Tebow though lol.

That's funny cause when I was in Vegas one weekend last year I played one prop bet and it was Tebow rushing yards +6.5 against Cam. Tebow ended up outrushing him. I was hooked on prop bets after that, lol.

I love prop bets. I'm winning at a ridiculous rate over the past 1.5yrs. I've usually struggled in NFL (too heavy on the media perceive favorite each time), but I've been a lot better this year. Starting to get a niche for the favorite that'll get beat outright. College I've always been real solid. The SEC is treating me good this year.

I've gotten my ass kicked today. I do have Alabama/Mississippi State over +46, parlayed with Notre Dame +12.5. This was $40, which would be a nice make up for the other terrible wagers today. 38-7 now...coming down to the wire...

Yeah I've had a horrible day as well lol. I think I've won maybe 3 of all the bets I placed... pretty much anything I've won the last few weeks is now gone haha. I do have a few NFL bets for tomorrow though. Hopefully I can win those.
