I have a process.

I look at the lines first and select usually around 15 that I like at first glance.

I write those 15 matchups down.

I go to donbest.com, espn.com, cfbstats.com, and scratch off 6 or 7 games from potential bet list.

Then I read predictions on those sites and on handicap sheets and the reasons experts give for those predictions. Usually that cuts 2 or 3 more games off my slip.

That leaves 6 or 7 games I bet a week.

I rank those from favorite to least favorite and bet in tiers. 1 or 2 big money, 1 or 2 low money, and 3 or 4 middle money games.

I have had great success with this process over the last 6 years in college football as I am about at a 65% win PCT over that timeframe. (I am TERRIBLE at betting pro football though for unknown reasons).

They impressed me last night. Hundley has a chance to be the best QB in the nation next year. His only flaw is that he tries to do too much sometimes. They have some good looking players on that defense and Mora has them going in the right direction. I'm going to keep my eye on them down the road.


The only issue I see with UCLA going forward is that offensive scheme. I never liked the OC at ASU either. It doesn't employ much of power run game. Rodriguez, Helfrich, Sark, and obviously Shaw can all go with a power run game. The OC relies so much on five blockers and that he gets the qb killed.

This is what I'm on so far:

2 Teasers at one unit each:

Georgia -2½ * vs Tennessee U
Florida U -3 * vs Arkansas
LSU -1½ * vs Mississippi State

Georgia State +63 * vs Alabama
Georgia -3 * vs Tennessee U
LSU -2 * vs Mississippi State

Also:

LSU -9.5 (one unit)

Probably going to pick one of the early games to put some cash on but hadn't decided which one yet.

What is up with SJSU at -4 against Hawaii? That is a good line.

I am not sure how Georgia at -10 won't cover.

UGA seems way too easy.

LSU UGA tease

Probably stanford (maybe 1H)

ASU

OU (prob wont play)



Those are my strong leans right now

Why because it's too late? Seems like easy money. SJSU is decent and Hawaii sucks.

Fresno was rolling Hawaii and they put in a new QB and he diced them up easily.

they had a chance to beat Fresno at the end of the game

Are you buying a shite load of points on those teasers?


So many people here are going to go apeshit if UGA LSU teaser doesn't work out.

Just curious. What you have on UCF vs Memphis

Louisville 1st H should be easy if they don't come out stupid off the bye

I missed that. Of course, Fresno defense is MIA.

42-3 in the third. Hawaii put in new qb and started rolling. Lost 42-37 and they had the ball on the 30 when time ran out. If they had another minute they would have won
