Willy Blastoffs Picks 12/12/06

[Billy Blastoff]

yesterday 0-1 -$275
overall 18-6 +$2825

Today's plays are: all bets are $250

DRAKE -13 vs CAL IRV BB says line should be -7 1/2

Game of interest but no play is Minnesota (all money should go on C Fl as Minn has the worst
qfactor of all the big big schools (20,000 + enrollment) But why would Minn give a team @$75000 guarantee if they thought they could lose to them?

Good luck to all

What are you talking about re: $75k guarantee?

Is that how much CFla gets for playing the Golden Golphers?

all big 10 teams give in the area of $70-100,000 guarentee in CBB even more in CFB

Billy, I was wondering if you had gone back and looked at games that would have been plays while you were on vacation, and what the outcomes were?

Thanks!

Thanks!

I bet he couldn't wait to get there to do it and checked it out on the plane :mj07:

Ok so it is nothing out of the ordinary...Then to answer your question, I guess Min gives that money because they have to schedule someone to come in and play, and the AD probably didn't do his homework and just assumed this is not a powerhouse school so why not.:shrug:

the coaches make the schedule not the AD, the AD just signs the contract.

Good Luck BB! Line has already gone to 13.5 at BETCRIS (my main offshore book). Drake is traditionally a tough place for visitors... Drake is 4-0 SU & 3-0 ATS at home and Cal-Irvine is 0-4 SU on the road. GO DRAKE!

 

[Billy Blastoff]

Minnasotas home schedule non conference, also eliminated the acc/big10 challenge as minn had no choice.

North Dakota State 79
Long Island 244
Iowa State 199
Arizona State 310
Ark-LR 136
South Dakota State 329
Central Florida
SE Louisiana 208

Not exactly manny big RPIs, yes I know Minn RPI is in the 200s. But they knew they werent going to be any good and brought in teams they thought they could beat. I would bet all these teams have no dominant inside game as Minn is aweful inside

 

[Flipper13]

Well then the coaches probably figured it was a safe bet without doing much homework.

 

[JOHNNYAU21]

so would you play on minnesota or ucf? Thanks! Also I know that your system is proven but I was wondering if you ever look at the betting trends before you make a play. I have held off on two of your picks: colorado a few days ago and yesterdays play b/c over 75% of the public was on the same side as you. I know that your system is based strictly on your numbers but maybe watching some trends may help rule out some picks. You know Vegas never loses to much!! Anyways thanks again for your help!!

who do have in the A&m game ?

I'll post over on my thread. Don't want to intrude on Billy.

 

[Skipper]

Backcracker,

Remember the episode of Seinfeld where George decides to do the opposite of what he thinks is right? That is kind of the premise we are looking at here. If the line is off, instead of going with it, he goes against it.

I fawking love Seinfeld!
