so I had given up on ecu pretty early last night. saw the score this morning and shrugged. only late this morning did I decide to check the play-by-play and I saw what happened. un-fucking-real. ruffin mcneill must be part of the mike smith coaching tree. completely inexcusable and he deserved that loss. anyone know if he's been fired yet?
tonight...
last MACtion of the year. that might be a good thing.
bowling green (+5) 5 units
bowling green (ML) 3 units to win 5.4. yeah, this is a huge, huge play for me. maybe I'm trying to get back some of the money I've lost the last 4 weeks as teams keep handing northern ill wins. but once again, this line is BEGGING for northern ill money. on paper, the huskies should roll to another win. bg has lost 2 straight games. their defense is horrible, especially their run defense, which plays right into northern ill's strength. knapke throws too many INTs. the huskies have revenge for last year's mac championship game. every single factor points to the huskies. and... the line has dropped. I can offer no rational reason for why bowling green should win this game. I just feel northern ill is very overvalued and I have to keep playing against them.
Arizona (+14.5) 2 units
Arizona (ML) 1 unit to win 5. I kinda hate this play. it feels so easy to take Arizona. it would help if I actually thought they were any good. but if they were, they wouldn't be getting 2 TDs in a conference championship game. but I'm falling into the same trap as everyone else... they have beaten the ducks 2 straight times. sometimes one team just has another team's number. and it's a huge advantage not to be intimidated by Oregon.
