10/9 - 10/12

[dawgball]

LW 3-3 (-0.3 units)
YTD 13-13 (-1.3 units)
UGA 4-1 (+2.9 units)

Change the order. This week I will post my plays besides the Georgia play first. Write-up about UGA-UT to follow later.

LSU -10 -- playing against the Florida public fondness. I think the line would be higher basing it on talent and coaching alone.

Ohio St. -2' -- One of my least favorite teams to pull for, but they know how to squeek out victories.

Tulsa +23 -- Just too many points.

Minnesota pk -- Can't imagine why anyone else would take them this week, so I thought I would donate some money to my book.

UCONN +16 -- Jumping on the bandwagon:shrug:

Remaining leans:
Kentucky -7' -- I see Tubby leading this team to an outright victory.

Purdue -13 -- Who in the world is not going to say that this is too many points for JoPa? ME!

Miami (FL) +7 --WTF? I wouldn't touch this game if you gave me +120 on either team. You're right. I would. Give the Canes on a lean for now.

Will be posting write-up on GA-UT and if any of these leans turn into plays later in the week!

Go Dawgs!

What a dumbass mistake!

I made the plays:

LSU -10 1 unit
Ohio St. -2' 1 unit
Tulsa +23 1 unit
Minnesota pk 1 unit
UCONN +16 1 unit

And forgot that Infinity gives -105 on Fridays! These are the mistakes that can make or break a season. I feel like a damn rookie!

I will be making a similar donation. You think my accountant will allow me to write it off?

Thanks, AR.

WO, let me know how it turns out. I have several others that should qualify!

Georgia (-2) @ Tennessee write-up

It has taken three consecutive wins, but Tennessee fans finally look at Georgia as a formidable opponent. Going into the 2000 season Tennessee's fans, players, and coaches had zero fear of the Georgia Bulldogs home or away. For good reason, too. The Dawgs had failed to beat the Vols over a 12 year, 9 game period. Starting in 2000, things began to change for the better in Athens, and the Bulldogs have taken the last three meetings in tight fashion.

By now everyone has heard Clausen quote after last year's game which he is trying to back down from now. There's no backng down from that. A year ago, every UT fan I knew was using that as their only bullet as to why they haven't won this century. Bulletin board material or not, both of these teams are going to be highly motivated this weekend. This game will possibly decide the SEC East champion. With the West beating each other up, it could prove to decide the overall champion.

I am throwing everything out the window besides three things. Tennesse obviously has home field advantage, and it is one of the best in the country. It's very rare that I have been to another college stadium and been a little envious of the fan tradition. (WE ARE...PENN STATE) being another one. That's so cool! Georgia has the edge in overall talent, but I think what wins this game is Greene vs. The Iceman. Clausen has the ability to win ballgames, but he also makes the mistakes to lose them. Greene simply plays solid football. He makes mistakes, but they are rarely of the variety that simply throws the game away. Last, is in-game coaching talent. I give Fulmer huge kudos in his ability to recruit talent to play for the Vols from all over the country, but the guy is probably the worst in-game coach in the SEC.

So surprise, surprise! I am going with the Bulldogs to make it 4 in a row this year. This may be the year that gets me taken out of my in-laws will, but it may be worth it since I won't have to listening to them talking about the ****ing Iceman!

Good luck to all!

Go Dawgs!

Georgia -2 1 unit

Added:

Auburn +6 1 unit

Auburn wins game outright as the popular press skewed vision of how bad Auburn is and how good Arkansas is is exposed.
