17-13 and +$90 ytd. balance = $590.00
nfl is killing me. i will just lay off mnf and start working on ncaa this week. i like the over 47 tonight, but no bet. the way i have been sucking it up at nfl so far, a play on the under might be wise. 😆

man i was liking iowa state. it is all the way down to 4 now, and i think i have to go the other way. seems like the value is with the horns.

texas -4
30/27

nebraska over 46
30/27
usc -3.5
30/27
rutgers +29.5
30/27
mich state -3.5

texas a&m -8

tennessee +7.5
40/36
miss state +9

It really is about finding value, line movement, public opinion. Usually if 9 people bet on a side I would bet the other way..mainly for the pro league anyways.
You try to find value in select games. Not bet on every game like someone on this forum. College is a lot easier. There are over 60 games a week so you have some what of advantage imo.. where as in the pros the line is spot on by vegas.
Also when you do this long enough you can anticipate public opinion right when the lines are open. With that knowledge you can pick plays early knowing the line will move out of your favor or wait on a play knowing by kickoff the line will move toward your favor.
I love this game.

Always wait to the end You follow heavy and sharp money, I've seen bigger line swings in under 5 min. Sometimes, then within a 24 hr. period

yeah i have been at this almost 20 yrs now. i always start with stats. then as the week goes on i follow the forums and line moves, and just go with my gut at the end. been working for me for the most part. i wish good fortune to both you guys. go with what works.
