Your write up on that game showed me your detailed analysis. Unfortunately that was a brutal beat caused by turnovers. 

Anyway I've made money on your tail. 

Gonna be on WVU and Marshall
Wondering if u think a small action play on the Marshall under might be in order given the run the clock analysis?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with the board



Ah yes. 3 turnovers by PSU two deep the red zone all leading to Temple scores and we lose by one point. I've made some adjustments after that game. I'm very careful about staying away from 8-10 point home favorites so we don't get backdoored like that.
I don't play team totals so I'll reserve comment on that.

I was actually looking for a reason to back Marshall here after Stockstill went down.  Tough reading those quotes above.  Kid is one hell of a gunslinger.  But his backup was a poo poo platter last week.  Great spot to getting 2 scores.  WE ARE MARSHALL!  Good luck Scal.

JrocNot gonna happen but I'll let ya kn

Snuffy - I see a lot of WVU pride today! (btw those picks were completely coincidental).

Jdr- Wha a wise guy you are. Who cares if they were alive? How many people were alive today during the wars we just honored war veterans for yesterday. Tie those people PERSONALLY into a game (it IS the fabric of this university's football team) and you have a motivator.

So tell me of your angle (There are none on this board of course) where you are NOT reaching when you say you FEEL Harbaugh will just blow the doors off Iowa. Gosh, so dependable. And if not that, you bring up some excel spreadsheet that quantifies everything that has already been quantified in the LINE. Good luck with that. Thanks for finding the board an advantage.

How many times is this line of thinking going to work out for you? It's FAILED you 70% of the time over TWO YEARS yet you still squawk the same bullshi* like it's meaningful. Lol.


TheGr3at. It won't be easy. It's Marshall. The product they've put on the field this year has been abhorrent.

Great write up.  Thanks for sharing your insight. I hate to possibly profit on such a tragedy.The truth is sometimes when a team is playing for something bigger than themselves they tend to rise up and do what they can out of respect for the fallen.

Hi Scal, just wanted to drop in and say that i started betting 3 years ago and i learned about you 2 years ago and ive been following you ever since, i learned alot from you and just wanted to say thank you. I hope to be as good as you one day. I made an account just to say this lol. Good luck to us today and thank you for the free picks! It blows my mind everytime i see someone bash you everytime they lose on your picks or just like to hate, it seems like people still dont realize that no one hits 100 percent or that theres no one out there with a better record giving out FREE picks.

I appreciate that man. Nice words.

My best advice to offer to become a profitable capper is this: Observe what everyone else is doing and do either 1) something different or 2) do the opposite.

That doesn't mean fading squares all the time. It simply means to carve out your own unique path to a winner.

Y O U

Where are YOUR picks and angles and who are you benefiting here?

And how exactly could you ever find a way to support Marshall here based on what is already known statistically? You criticize but you don't even a path of any kind to a winner.

Well, I asked because it made no sense. I said nothing about Harbaugh vs Iowa and I don't have an Excel spreadsheet that I know of. So either you have me confused with someone else or you were just making really bad jokes. I'm thinking it was the latter. 

I posted my picks in a variety of different threads.

Indiana
Texas
Tulsa

Those are my early plays.

Sorry, I don't start two or three threads every week like you do. I guess I don't crave attention like you do.

Well Tulsa has a shot. 

I start threads TO MAKE PEOPLE MONEY AND TALK ABOUT THE GAMES. There is no end game here. I'm not like the countless others who use this site to go tout. I have money and a job.

I like to hear what people say but I will come back at you if it is not substantive. I LEARN from others. Try is sometime.

San Diego over Miami. The line is 4.5 now. Feels like the Jets Miami game where now Miami will creep under the number. SAN Diego loves to play so tight this year. If the line was 3 I would have posted it. Can't justify that play now.

1-2 on my early plays. With the moose of all moose coming on my Indiana play. That was the difference. 

I'm done with college football for the day. The UFC has my attention tonight.

Good luck with Marshall. I think you are on the right side. Too many points.

Oh you paid the price with Indiana. Lol. Wow.

No wait a minute. I had Tulsa +2 all week. You went 0-2-1. Stop the fibbing Jdr.

Johnny, it's a terrible team with a nice motivational angle and a nice chunk of points at home.

Plus we have the "opposing team sympathy card" angle here just like the military academies are not pounded because well, they do serve the country after all. Honoring the deceased has a similar effect. Let's see how it pans out!

I bought it up to 3.5. I always do. Too many tough losses over the years.

First off. It's picks, not pics.

Second, Indiana has to be one of the worst bad beats of the season. Right up there with Stanford-UCLA from earlier this year.

But, it is, what it is. Moving on. It's UFC time!

Good luck on Marshall.
