Skip... I know the DD SEC dog rule but Miss. St sucks really bad... very poor dicsiplined team. I might end up on State but right now I cant see how LSU doesnt win by 30. I really dont see State scoring :scared

 

[Skipper]

I agree that they suck, but going to hit both Ole Miss and Miss. St. and figure at least one hits.

For LSU, big emptional road win, then after State is a bye weekl, then at FLA. Feel like the players will be looking ahead to the bye week

Florida has Ole Miss sandwiched between SEC road games.

GL whatever you do this week Corley!

Also, are you planning on coming to Knoxville for the game? If so, come by the show and I will put you on the air for a few minutes!

I'll buy you a beer seeing is that may be the only game UT wins:142smilie

 

[Corley1011]

Yeah Im comin up there... Heres some interesting facts for you... Since I've been alive, 1985, State has beaten LSU 3 times... Since 2000 when LSU and State meet LSU averages beating State 42.5 to 10.1... State NEVER plays LSU close

 

[Skipper]

Gonna hit these four real hard

Troy
Ole Miss
Bama
Cincinatti

More to come

 

[THE KOD]

I am on Alabama also.

Good luck Skipper

 

[Skipper]

Saw that Scott, and you are warming up yourself!

GL this week

 

[AR182]

good luck this week skipper..

 

[Corley1011]

Hey Skip, we are staying at the Crown Plaza in Knoxville... that would be really cool to be put on the air!

 

[Skipper]

Nice place there and it is downtown close to campus and the stadium. What time will you get there Friday? Our makeshift studio is downtown, so we might get you in on Friday.

Either way, you will have a good time. I have lived in four different cities in the southeast, from NC, SC, AL, and now Knoxville, and none compare with KNoxville. You have water and mountians and definitely four seasons.

Two more games I am looking at where I think the wrong team is favored, but want to get some feedback.

Nevada +4 at UNLV
UTEP +5 vs UCF

The second one is where I need some input from UTEP guys

 

[Corley1011]

My roommates and I will probably get there around 4 or 5. We are living Starkville about 10.

 

[Skipper]

Year to Date: 36-21, +29.55 units or $2955

Tonight, going with:

SMU +18
Oregon State +25-

Both for 1/2 unit each

 

[Skipper]

38-21, +30.55 units or +$3055 year to date

2-0 last night, did not expect the outright with USC, but at least we don't have to hear that PC is the best coach in college football. This guy continues to lose to bad teams and doesn't learn that his team has to be ready to play every game.

This, USC fans, is exactly why he would not make it in the SEC. You can get your team up once a year, but do it every week.

Back later tonight with weekend plays, but will be hitting Cincy, CMich, Ole Miss, and Troy VERY BIG

 

[Blackman]

Best of luck Skip. Enjoy the write ups and appreciate the info.

 

[ripken8]

looking at ole miss and troy hard skipper but I'm kinda partial to ub football... good luck...

 

[Skipper]

38-21, +30.55 units or +$3055 year to date

10 unit play (GOY #1)
Central Mich. -6-
Will play probably 3 of these this year. CMich. is still the class of the MAC and started to get things together last week at Purdue. Think the MAC will be decided between them and West. Mich. Really like this play a great deal

7 unit play (GOY #1 1/2)
Cincy -10 - best young coach in football and I think Akron has benefited from playing a couple of bad teams. Cincy wins this one by 28

3 unit plays
Ole Miss +22 WINNAH:toast:
Western Michigan -4 Push:shrug:

2 unit plays
Nevada +4 WINNAH!
EMU/NIU un 53- WINNAH:toast:
ND/Purdue ov 45- WINNAH:toast:

1 unit plays
Miss. St. +25 WINNAH
Houston +10- WINNAH:toast:
Va Tech +7 WINNAH
Vols +7 WTF? WINNAH:toast:
Michigan +6 WINNAH:toast:
TCU +18- Loser
Troy +18 Loser
Arky +27 Loser

I know, too many; but I am feeling good, so why not hit it while I can

GL as always guys:toast:

 

[Skipper]

So far today 6-3, but missing the two big plays

Down 9.8 units or $980 so far today

Going to add these:

San Jose +3 for 2 units

Good luck the rest of the way guys

 

[Skipper]

10-5 overall yesterday, bringing total record to:
48-26

Lost units though with the loss of two big plays:
-6.0 units bringing total units to:
+24.55 units or +$2455 overall

Still feel good overall even with missing the two big ones. CMich gives up a late TD and Cincy did not convert in the red zone several times.

Thoughts up til now:
Saban is a good football coach, but Bama is still very vulnerable.

Fulmer better enjoy the 50,000 empty seats on Saturday vs Northern Illinois. BTW, don't let the line be over 20! Could see NIU winning outright

Nebraska is still a pretender

Georgia is still a pretender

Florida needs to quit worryiing about getting Tebow hurt and just let him do what he does best - RUN THE F ING FOOTBALL

USC will still run the table and play for it all

Penn St., I think, is pretty damn good

Houston Nutt is a pretty damn good football coach and I hope they beat Arkansas's eyeballs shut for the way they treated him

Ready for Oklahoma to play someone

COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS STILL AND FOREVER WILL REMAIN THE GREATEST SPORT ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH!!!!
