    oral roberts at it again .....

    im not sure what the deal is. there wasnt a line on bucknell/wake or vermont/bc. yet theyre lining teams like south dakota state and nicholls state. its like theyre picking and choosing which games to line. pretty shady. oral roberts was a cash cow in their lined games last year.

    OK... So I dislike the MAC!

    ive said it all year -- the mac is horrible. even having a solid read on what these teams are about and what theyre trying to do doesnt guarantee anything. you could have put the ball at the 1-foot line in the center of the field and i would have told you bg would miss the kick. their special...

    oral roberts at it again .....

    one of the best non-board teams around. really wish they'd line some of these mcc games because oral roberts and iupui can play some basketball.

    Mia/BG in game thread

    gotta love bowling green and ball state. whereas the rest of the mac has gone to field turf, they have no shame keeping the natural grass and letting the field get abused for these november games.

    Backyard Brawl

    i hate playing a wannstedt-coached team over the total but the panthers have the offensive weapons to score some points on wvu. .... but anyone who saw pitt/uconn last week knows that pittsburgh's defense against a mobile quarterback was beyond pathetic. i try to steer clear from hyperbole but...

    jack/ie ..... re: avatars ....

    considering the volume of requests you get from guys when it comes to changing avatars, whats kept madjacks from having one of those 'upload your own avatar' sections where we basically do the work ourselves by browsing our own internet files and then submitting the image (similar to how bodog...

    So how do I learn to cap games

    if you handicap stats or talent in the nfl, you are simply wasting your time. nfl is all "regression to the mean" and "buy low/sell high". if you follow that, along with the discipline to never lay more than 4 points max in this league, you will make money. simpistic? perhaps. profitable...

    Tuesday Night Selection

    great call man. cant tell you how much i like watching this team play basketball. just a scrappy team that plays balls out and doesnt get rattled even if they get down 8 or 10 points to power conference teams. so many other midmajors woulda imploded when they got down 47-35. instead, the finish...

    college plays for 11/14-11/18....

    the football that is being played in the mac this year is downright awful, and almost uncappable. at very worst, you should have had a shot to push or get overtime. instead, this pathetic conference has another poor showing on national tv. mistakes galore, culminating with a ridiculous drop.

    Couple of lines that seem off to me

    what should that line be? :shrug:

    Tuesday Night Selection

    as far as proximity, its more of a home game for butler. i think its a solid play. butler treats this game the same way gonzaga treats the washington game. its a big deal for the in-state little brother, and the bulldogs are more than capable of winning. as always, the game will come down to...

    franschilla (dont care how its spelled) Knight's bag man

    ptgard: i dont need to coach to know that ive experienced similar stuff first hand as a player and have also heard stuff that was downright crazy from buddies who have played at the highest levels of collegiate basketball -- acc and big ten levels. stuff that makes for great, and sometimes...

    franschilla (dont care how its spelled) Knight's bag man

    im not saying that knight is right for doing it during actual game time and during a televised game. hes only asking for trouble and unnecessary and negative attention when he did that. but i do agree with fraschilla that other coaches, plenty of them, do it. but theyre just smart enough to do...

    franschilla (dont care how its spelled) Knight's bag man

    what fraschilla said was, of course, hyperbole. but you get the point. its another case of the media just waiting for knight to do something so they can make a big deal out of it. what knight did is fairly common. hell, i played for a coach that was the same way. and have plenty of amazing...

    The Return of the Real Tom Penders

    its probably mean to laugh about it, but its still funny as hell that he got a technical last year when he passed out on the sidelines for real and had to be taken to the hospital ... and the refs didnt rescind the tech.

    Funny where you get information

    just to elucidate- it certainly wouldnt be a shock for duquesne to get hammered tonight. that program is truly starting from scratch. but with 30-some games, whats the rush, ya know? duquesne isnt going to be good any time soon. so theres no need to rush to get money down on youngstown for fear...

    The Return of the Real Tom Penders

    agree completely on houston as far as philosophy and penders. but want to wait a game or two to see how they adjust to playing without smith. thats a pretty big loss because he was a consistent contributor for them. rhode island is also a slow down team who plays so many games in the 120s and...

    Funny where you get information

    duquesne is a mess, but there are 30-some games to find great spots against them. they will take their share of beatings. i just dont see the sense in laying that kind of road chalk with a youngstown team that is a live dog but rarely in the position of 'fav' where theyre expected to win. just...

    Let the debate begin: Mich +7 @ OSU

    id buy the 'ohio state is overrated' talk ..... if there was some substance behind it. but this is a team that closed out 2005 by beating 3 ranked teams in 3 straight games to close the year (annihilating 2 of the 3 in the process, though to be fair mich was the exception) and theyve done...

    WEEK 12 PICKS (BIG UPSET!)

    cmu's rout of wmu was aided greatly by the weather, which was windy and had some freezing rain. wmu put the ball on the ground 4 or 5 times in the second half to turn a 10-7 halftime game into a 31-7 blowout. wmu's defense is the best in the mac and theyve got a few florida kids going back home...
