Week 14 Chrunchers

[Jimboski]

SLIM pickins this week. Two GREAT games to WATCH and that's all I'll be doing with them cause throwing moola in the air ain't my thing; Badgers/Buckeyes and Miami/Clemson are just too tough to call for me.

Only got a few (odds are what I fed Chruncher which was close to when they opened; I'd take any of these even if it jumps the wrong way by ONE pt):

Oklahoma -7: I've been looking for a while for a nice, big, fat odds line for a future/prop? --> Sooners win championship game. Oddsmakers laying low or what?

Stanford + 4: FRYday game.

Troy pk or +1 (doesn't matter what it is) : It's Cruncher's top plick and I like this one as well. Careful, cause there aren't that many plicks or games this Sat. and BEST BET doesn't mean that much in this situation. Also, the program (Crnch) does better with spreads that "have some meat in them" that is, the calculated, final rating is not as reliable when spreads are so low like ,1's, 2's Still, bestest bets have been winning this season for me n Crunch.

Interesting game:
If somebody is interested in what Chrunch has to "say" about the Memphis/UCF game - it does like UCF's chances to cover. I don't and I'm not confident to back Memphis with a bet either. I'm interpreting Chrunch's report as - Memphis just might not be lighting up the scoreboard so much vs. UCF. How bout that O/U line? I'm not biting on that bait the oddsmaker threw out there. This isn't logical but, for whatever reason - Memphis just doesn't score vs. UCF. These two teams played each other EVERY year from 08 to 2013 and the MOST Memphis scored was 21 stinkin points, 2nd most was 17. Maybe this makes more sense - they played 9/30 this year, Memphis scored 13 ! Yes, the Tigers have been doing some heavy scoring since their game with UCF but IMO, except for MAYBE one or two exceptions, I don't see a solid defensive team among the teams they faced. Bottom line is that 82 is just way too much of a stretch and in that last game they played the bait was 68 1/2 and that was too high by 15 1/2 pts. and now the bait is 82? "I don't think so, Boookies." Right now I'm on the fence with going with the UNDER. Bottom line is that I am excited as a fan, not so much as a bettor this week.

G.L. MJer, Readers

So far AND adding a play

So far AND adding a play

Looks like 2 for 3 so far. Waiting on Troy for a mini sweep

IF that "interesting" UNDER counts, subtract whatever. I did play that UNDER "81" FIASCO in a mini 2 teamer that lost on account of that ridiculous game.


I also played a 5 teamer, all M.Liners. that pay approx 4-1. It does have Troy and Clemson in it One COLLEGE BB upset wiener (got LUCKY) also. I guess it's Troy that readers are interested in and I have that one in another parlay and in a single bet as well. Count it as at least 2 units.

Never saw a game like that UCF/Memphis game; that game was OVERcharged too much and became a bore to me.

Bigger bet sizes for next week, Chrunch has been doing well lately. Make that, better than well.

G.L. with them NFLers tomorrow.

Gotta add this while this thing is at the top of listings...

Gotta add this while this thing is at the top of listings...

For OVER 2 weeks, I was looking for the Sooners on a futures list and Dimes, the only place I use and not interested in opening any other accounts, only has them for NFL football. Am I missing something? Shouldn't there have been something for the championship college games by now?? It wouldn't be the first time to stipulate," Team must play, no action if team doesn't play" or something like that.

Oddsmakers just couldn't figure appropriate odds? FORGET IT, they can now! The cat is out of the bag.

Wrap up and record which I'm not sure about

Wrap up and record which I'm not sure about

Oakie wiener

Stanford - wiener

Troy - weiner

Looks like a mini-sweep from here, 3/0, in units 4/0 with 2 units on them Troy dudes?

Let's see, season wise.... .
Over/Under ? My interest in that "interesting" UNDER pick was zero at some point in the 3rd quarter. Looked more like a soccer game to me, them just running back and and forth between the goals at each end of the field. Not sure about the record with O/U's, think it is positive since this season started. For this week it's 0-1.

For games that I wrote lengthy comments on... ... that would be Zero/ for the total no. of ones I did long write ups. So much for the blah, blah, blah

Been having a lot of luck lately with fast race hosses ( I do post them) , college games, AND even three NFL plays I made during the weekdays (2 were for Dallas, 2nd half - M.L. and that crazy low no. on Dallas tt (team tot.) for 2nd half, 9 1/2 @ -115. I normally don't bother to watch Thurs. night NFL but glad I did this past week. Dang it, I shoulda put a really decent bet on that tt.

I hope some of the READERS that visit me caught at least one of the plays. The record I keep tract of is how the piggy bank (has horse and football bankroll) looks these days and it IS about time I get a new one cause Ms. Piggy is pretty well stuffed now.

Streak may continue? So I wanted to post the ONE NFLer for Sunday I have with one of the Troy cover wiener's.

K.C. -3 vs Jets: I always take it off an important no. so I bought it down to 2 1/2. IF I played it as a single play, I'd accept the -3. Hope this one doesn't ruin the posts for this week.

Good luck today.
