College World Series Thread...

FSU at UNC at 11 a.m. (Pacific time). Waiting on clear pitching assignments (starters and who is available in the bullpen) to make a call. Been lean UNC. They haven't played up to their ability yet this tourney. FSU can give up runs. UNC has better pitching. We will see.

Took FSU,hope to see some dingers from them today

On fsu moneyline as well

I am going with my gut. So far EVERY favorite has won. EVERY ONE. I think this UNC team is vastly under rated. Its a bullpen game for FSU (which I don't think their bullpen is any good). UNC is toeing the rubber with a decent but not dominating starter (who last started on June 2nd). I think this is a tight, possibly 4-3 kind of game with Vance Honeycutt yet again being the hero late. 

UNC +105 risking 1.5 units to win 1.65

BOL to all!

 A little CWS historical trivia you guys might like: I lived in Omaha for some years, was a successful coach and huge CWS fan. One of the greatest performances I ever witnessed was the year Dave Winfield almost carried Minnesota to the championship. Back in the day, when they had a regional format instead of national qualifying tournaments, it was unusual for Northern teams to challenge at the CWS. Winfield hit and PITCHED for Minny that year, and carried them on his back to a second-place finish to Southern Cal. The guy was remarkable. You could SMELL a coming pro star right there and then. 

@KeyElement

Only man to be drafted in MLB, NFL and NBA. Most people in the know say that "Mr. May" was one of the greatest American athletes of all time. I hate that nickname for him but I had to say it to give an idea how underrated he has always been.

@jesron1269

 My feelings exactly. 

Well so much for that relaxing 7-1 lead.  

wow what timing... honeycutt promo immediately followed by a 3 run homer  .... and i just tuned into the game little bit ago...

 M gusta la caja de Texas gracias por aceptame

You are probably good. UNC fucked it up in the top of the 5th. They didn't pull the reliever soon enough. Honeycutt will get one last chance in the bottom of the 9th. This last inning they needed to get at least one back. FSU going to squeak by it appears.

@jesron1269

 I dunno FSU should have more than 7 runs wasting runners on.  I need 6 up 6 down to avoid facing Honeycutt again

Honeycutt with no one on you will be good. But like JC if you have to pitch to him with runners on you are probably in trouble.

hr hr wow

Well UNC just didn't perform the way I expected they would this CWS. I had high expectations for them. Honeycutt was specular but the rest not so much. Pitching and D which is their staple didn't perform to their expectations either. Poor management too. Sad to see them leave. But such is the structure of the tournament. I see Texas A&M and Tennessee in a collision course with each other for the championship. FSU and Florida doesn't have the pitching. 

UNC ML = LOSER. 4-5. +2.22 units.  

The night cap was postponed until tomorrow. Will be on it with a play tomorrow. BOL to all tonight!

I got Tennessee win it all at +280 . This was right before it started . It’s now -134

This  going suck for Kentucky vs Florida winner  . They have no day rest and play   again in evening

Well shit missed the start time of the Kentucky/Florida game. Back for the later game.  

Would have bet over in the Florida game. Missed out on that. I did bet under 21.5 +135 in the 7th inning when it was clear Florida wasn't trying to score any more (they have to play tonight in a day/night double header) and Kentucky gave up. But not counting it as I didn't post it.

Adding... Tennessee -1.5 -115 risking 3.45 units to win 3 units.

Likely will be fading Florida tonight. BOL to all!

Took Vols -1 .5  145-100.....crazy diff...

Now -120....

@bigred84

I got -120. These lines move a lot. Best advice if you like favs or overs take them early. But if you got out priced you can wait. Take it live.

jesron, the betting line(s) on the Florida/Texas AM game shouts close game throughout! I’m envisioning 4-4 or 5-5 late in the game….maybe extras?
