 Anybody that follows my work knows most every post is an ironic / sarcastic/ tongue firmly planted in cheek thing. Grow a pair son - it's the fuckin internet. Or be a backstabbing coward like some here - I could care less.

It is better to be feared - than to be loved.

WHO KNEW Vandy vs Hawaii week 0 could stir the flames!

 

The Thread is HEATING UP.

 

But nonetheless- the Commodores are going to FLEX Saturday. They’ll be up 21-0 before a 31-13 final score.

WHOOPS HAWAII BACKERS!!!

This game should be blacked out, if for nothing else but degen respect.  Worse than betting on a 3-entry horserace due to everyone scratching.

Don't even "bet for funsies" or "just to SEE what I would've done"... this isn't the kind of game you need on your conscience or clogging up your NCAAF season 'vision'.

 

Like they say, go bust a an_bomb, and hopefully the post-nut clarity an_eek2an_eek2an_eek2.  Long road ahead, BOL to everyone.

 I find it funny your signature has the word “humble” in it. Pretty sure that word doesn’t apply to you

 You may be right husky about how bad Hawaii is.   

But it amazes me how much people on this board are so certain about uncertain outcomes.  There a million variables in any game including this one.

I guess every one has an opinion of course but there is certainly going to be some generous helpings of "crow" served up if Hawaii somehow covers this game.

yep that’s sports.  And sports betting.  The games that you feel strongly about have that same uncertainty—and will baffle others how you could be certain enough to wager

@Volplaya8

 Hi Vol - Since you asked, I do think UTEP +1 vs UNT is more interesting.  And NW +13.5 vs Nebraska has my interest as well.   Leaning to both dogs in this game but I have not made any plays yet.

Oh i agree, but you know there are gonna be hundreds upon hundreds of such claims, some will be right most will be wrong. But there is respectable ways to get a point across. Time is near BOL with your plays. peace_5

I want to stick an example in here, have no play in this game.

Sept., 2019; Maryland at Penn State. Forth game of the season. I had Penn St D as very good. Terps offense rolled over Howard and Cuse then lost to Owls. Lions struggled with Pitt. Terps with history of wilting against good D's.

So all my numbers said Penn St by double digits. Line opens on Sunday at -7 and I jump on it. Next day it drops to -6.5. WTF!!! What am I missing?? It should be going up. Maryland backers are posting I'm on the wrong side here. So I dig some more and come up with same conclusion, it's Penn State. So then double-down at -6.5 and throw in parlays. 

Penn State 59, Maryland 0. 

Line movement sometimes does not mean poo! Believe in yourself.

Hey, every one is entitled to their own opinion about how to use line movement

Far be it from me to try to change someone's mind

I meant no offense. Enjoy reading your posts and your very knowledgeable. 

Just my 2cents. And I used the word "sometimes".

Most pics ATS I see pretty even spread between both sides on Covers and Youtube. Makes sense.

But the Vandy Hawaii game, I have seen 99% of the picks for Vandy, even at -9.5 I wonder if the line will move double digits. But the rhetoric is definitely not 50/50 yet at the current price.

I hope everyone bet Western Kentucky next week already.  Hawaii is brutal that line is going to jump another TD.

I think Chang will eventually be a decent coach but ...His coaching staff is so raw and inexperienced... I hope Hawaii proves me wrong..but Vandy should cover this game.       Hawaii will be jacked up and pumped to start the game..but Vandy will pull away.... Also this is not your normal Hawaii team..Offense will not be explosive like what most fans who do not follow Hawaii think of Hawaii when they were under the June Jones/Rolovich era of the run and shoot/Pistol...The offense was not good under Todd Graham last season as that was even with a veteran QB in Cordero..

Anyone that bet Hawaii was either trying to be too cute, or didn't do ANY homework.

My only regret is not betting it bigger...I knew what would happen...Hawaii comes out jacked up and they gets run over...Coaching staff is so inexpeirenced and it is showing it big time...Chang was a TE's coach at Nevada last season...He was not qualified to be a D1 head coach.
