Ohio State QB is young and not ready yet.
The Ohio State OL is so good they will be able to run and just throw short passes till the QB gets better.
Ohio State offense will be fine their WR put double moves on Minnesota DBs and scored two easy TDs.
Ohio State defense is not NC good.

They can be thrown on by good teams. They are solid at run defense but Ohio State isn’t going undefeated this year.

I got the number at 13.5 and they were lucky to cover. That fumble call should have been targeting and they couldn’t stop the Minnesota passing game.
It was just Minnesota couldn’t stop any Ohio State offensive player in space.

was really surprised they swallowed the targeting call.

was really surprised they swallowed the targeting call.

Even if they didn’t call targeting, couldn’t it still be a personal foul hit on a defenseless receiver? Not sure if the two go hand in hand.

if you say he is defenseless then that means he didnt have control yet and its an incomplete pass and no fumble. pretty clear he drilled him in the earhole even if by mistake. But the mistake was he was trying to drill him not make an actual tacklle.. it all cascades down with this rule..

I thought they could hold on, but still be hit defenseless for a personal foul.

I can’t keep up with the rules on this.

Wake -31.5 is an interesting bet.
I think I may take it.
ODU has a lot of love this year.

I placed a bet on Tulane + 26.5 in their game with Oklahoma. The game was supposed to be played at Tulane but the game was moved to OU because of Hurricane Ida. Now the line is 31.5. I would have thought that my book would have voided the game and given me a refund. The switch in venue is obviously a big deal. Can't get a straight answer out of the book. Any thoughts?

Anything come of this?

No. They won't budge on it. Ticks me off. Have to decide whether I should take my business somewhere else.

I'm going to be in the minority but Duke will dust Charlotte again. The line was small last year IIRC.

Uh oh.

I told you to run towards the smell!! Although I still think Duke can cover

Stinky Cheese. Lesson learned (didn't end up touching it).

 

[upperdeck]

you go back and look at the duke char game from last yr and you wonder how the score got so wacked.. char had the ball 30 more min had more 1st downs, 40 more plays and had 50 yds less of offense.. But duke had 200 yds of running on 3 plays and 70 yds on the other 30 plays.

i feel better about thinking this after how this game went.. got one right this year at least

Nice $15 parlay.

 

[CuseTroop]

Nice $15 parlay.

Everyday I wake up and say “I’m done with parlays, only straight bets from here on out”
Then I see one of these

It's like a pick 6 in horse racing. Almost impossible to hit but if you do it generally pays off.

Rutgers opens -2

 

[Alsacs]

Had a good first week.

I do like ND -7 tonight.
The Irish only question mark is replacing their OL.
If they do they win this by 2 scores.

 

[upperdeck]

thats a crazy leg to bet,. I mean one weird one but 5-6 complete shots in the dark like Montana vs Wash.. again only betting 15 its as much fun because no big loss.

I’ve hit a pick 6 bet but never hit a parlay of more than 6 teams let alone 15.On a pick 6 usually you have several horses in a few legs and a single in one or two, but to pick 15 correct football games is a once in a lifetime thing.

I absolutely love Arkansas over Texas this week. ML.
It’s a play I will be doing.
I couldn’t believe the line was 6 to start.

It’s going to move towards Arkansas as the week progresses.

2-3. Mr. Diaz kept me from a positive day. Toggling back and forth between Mets and Yankees games and that Mets game looked very familiar. Waste chance after chance to increase the 1 run lead then the bullpen blows it in the 9th.

 

[orangenauburn]

UConn to cover is a lock this week.

I may even put down $10 and say they straight up win.

 

[kirbivore]

Razorbacks +7 vs. Texas

fascinated when watching soccer and seeing PKs given for plays that in bball wouldnt even be common fouls. glad i dont bet it very hard. too random on what they award.
