    Jimmy, 

    Love your insight. As a Vandy alum(and current Nashville resident), I can tell you the incidents over the summer have really affected the team. That being said, James Franklin is one helluva motivator, and a gets his team fired up. I think Carta samuels will be fine this year, and they have 3 good running backs. They are deep at DL, and andre hal is a beast, and Kenny Ladler will hit the crap out of you. I'm usually with you on first half unders, but I see a 21-17 type game at half, with more of the same in the second half. Too close to call on the game line, IMO. I'll be there in black cheering on Vandy. Huge first game. Anchor Down. 

    Alabama MDK's VA tech. I'll be maxing betting that one all over the place. First half, first half over points bama, bama game line, bama over line, vt under, under for half, etc...

    Hey Jimmy,

    How do you feel about Ole Miss -3.5?  Buy the hook?  Also, what if the number is as high as -4?  I live here in Bama and the local book screws lines heavily (I would not be shocked to see the Bama line as high as -24 by game time) with favorites as a general rule.  Thanks so much.

    Do you think the A&M over bet is still good even though Manziel is sitting for a half

    Go back and look at the box score from last season's game.  Ole Miss completely stifled their running game, and I think they'll do the same this season.  Vandy's defense largely shut down Ole Miss on the ground too.  I think both defenses will play tough, at least in the first half.  I definitely look for this game to stay UNDER the total.


    jimmy, I'm thinking about putting a unit on Vandy TT U 25 or 1st H TT U when it is released. I know you hate the possibility of OT, but I have gone back through your postings in this thread and it actually sounds like you like that bet as well. The thing that concerns me by going with Combined Total U (Game and 1st H) is that Ole Miss might go off and light the scoreboard up at any time. Wallace throwing for 400+ last year is no coincidence.

    jimmy, I'm thinking about putting a unit on Vandy TT U 25 or 1st H TT U when it is released. I know you hate the possibility of OT, but I have gone back through your postings in this thread and it actually sounds like you like that bet as well. The thing that concerns me by going with Combined Total U (Game and 1st H) is that Ole Miss might go off and light the scoreboard up at any time. Wallace throwing for 400+ last year is no coincidence.

I'm usually with you on first half unders, but I see a 21-17 type game at half, with more of the same in the second half. Too close to call on the game line, IMO. I'll be there in black cheering on Vandy. Huge first game. Anchor Down. 

    Alabama MDK's VA tech. I'll be maxing betting that one all over the place. First half, first half over points bama, bama game line, bama over line, vt under, under for half, etc...

    ^^^^ This. I agree

    I'm still seeing -3 at 5D and BM but, yes, I would absolutely bite the bullet and buy the hook.  I bought a hook when the line was -3 @ -105 so I ended up with -2.5 @ -115.

    Both teams stuffed each others run game last season, and I think we'll see similar results this season.  I just don't see either defense getting torched like that right out of the gate. I'll have to pay to see that happen.

    I have given that quite a bit of thought, and I would probably lean slightly to the -21 simply because if something goes awry in the 1st half like a VT kick return for a touchdown, there's more time to recover if you bet it for 4 quarters.  I don't do "Max Bets" on halftime lines because most books offer much lower betting limits on those bets, so I think it defeats the purpose to some degree.

    Vandy had a top 20 defense last year, and I expect James Franklin to have them playing very tough defense again this season.  I guess I have too much respect for Vandy's defense to think that Wallace will light them up like that.  I also expect Ole Miss' defense to be vastly improved this season.  I think both defenses will be a little ahead of the offenses right out of the gate.  I like the 1st half UNDER quite a bit.

    I like both of the UNDER Vandy team total bets, but of the two, I prefer UNDER the 1st half total.

    Man, I sure hope so TM.  What happened last season, last month, last week, or last bet doesn't matter.  It's all about hitting the next bet.  In other words, there's no time to start sucking each others person around here.  We have work to do!!! 


    Hopefully we all have a very profitable season.  I'm confident if that counts for anything.

    I will bet the 1st half UNDER at anything above 35.  I know we're talking about two prolific offenses, but both teams can play a little defense. The defenses will get some stops.
