BOWLS
- Thread starter Jord20
- Start date
As I mentioned I may have "kept score" (not played) on the wrong day. 20-2 start to the bowl season...my apologies...wow!! THe kiss of death is when some suggest going pay!! Best of luck the rest of the bowl season and 2014.
Thankfully, I tilted on that late game last night, and made a LOT back on it... I couldn't even get back to post at HT because I was too busy getting in various plays on UCF and over. Obv, won't count towards record, but felt good to get that last TD... phew and WOW.
Bowls: 40-38 +2920 LOL
It's been awful since the hot start. I'm most upset that I fell into the Rice and VT traps on NYE. I loved Miss St when games came out, and I flipped. Same with UCLA. Same with Miss. I think next year, I'm going to make a lot more bowl plays as soon as lines come out.
Okla +17 3180-3000
under 52 2650-2500

Jord can we get some insight into your pick with ok.. I can easily see bama being able to shut them down. I have been following you with no problems with picks at all but this one I'm curious about. If you have time can we get some thoughts. Thanks good buddy
The short of it...
I know Stoops has the bad 'big-game' rep, but I think he wants this one sooo bad. His chance to prove himself against big bad bama and the might Nick Saban with time to prep. I think 17 points is a joke in what should be a low scoring affair. Alabama coming off of the crushing, silly defeat to Auburn that shattered all their dreams. OKla peaking with a chance to make their season. This difference in motivation is worth the 17 points alone. Both teams will take pedal off the gas late... Bama in a blowout, or Okla trying to shorten the game. I would be shocked if both lost actually.
MOTIVATION. And Okla can run the ball well enough and make enough plays against a team who MAY not be as prepared nor care as much as they should be. I don't think Bama will be too creative and score too many to make this out of hand, even in a comfortable win situation

i like to hear the reasoning Jord, I try to learn from my mistakes. Thanks for sharing your picks all season. GL
got it at 23.5 and also the 1h at +10.5. 5dimes. of course any play i ever post on MJs loses, so I apologize in advance.
I need to find books that do money lines on these big spreads. 2nd night in a row that I leave money on the table.
