Week 8 Recap/ 'Boys (-10)
It's Sunday morning, and I've taken DALLAS(-10)over seattle. Alot of books have 9.5, but it doesn't look like bodog is going to move.
The Giants are now favored by 2 on bodog. Meanwhile, covers.com has the line as one on most sites, and still 1.5 at bodog. Usually their line for bodog is correct, but this makes me wonder how often they update these pages. Most of the other lines are correct, but most of these lines haven't moved, either.
I never posted my results from last week, so I'll do it now. Boston College lost to Notre Dame, but covered the 7.5 point spread. Minnesota lost to Pittsburgh, 27-17, and failed to cover the 6 points that I got, let alone the 4 points it opened at. Pittsburgh's final touchdown, which lost me my bet, helped me cover my tease of Minnesota and the over.
New England(+16) won and covered in London against Tampa Bay, 35-7, and
Green Bay(-7) won and covered at Cleveland, 31-3. Atlanta(+4) didn't even come close to covering at Dallas losing 37-21, and neither did OAKLAND(+7)--oooooops!--losing to the Jets, 38-0.
The week before last I did well on my tight game lines, and lost my sucker bets. Last week the big favorites covered, and my dogs lost. So now I'm loaded up on sucker bets this week, including the Dallas line above.
After the wild 3rd quarter that ended with Auburn up 33-20, the 4th quarter was scoreless. So ole miss(-4.5) was no good. This week I'm 0-1 on college. I stayed away from the big games, which had OREGON(+3) trouncing usc,47-20, and texas(-10) took care of business at OKLAHOMA STATE, 41-14. Last week I went 1-0 on college, 2-3 on the pros, or 3-3 if you include my Minnesota tease. Not that I care if you do. I got the $$ either way, keeping my head above water for the week. Meanwhile, the bet I didn't make, Boise State(100-1), looks pretty good too. I think USC dropping down could move them up to #4. I didn't take them after I watched their shootout vs. Tulsa, convinced that they couldn't play defense. Turns out Tulsa has a really good offense, so Boise is probably as viable as I had originally thought. (The other thing is most of the time bodog doesn't post the futures odds. They aren't posted right now, for instance, but I promise you wont get Boise at 100-1 now.
My Texas(8-1) bet for the BCS Championship is starting to look pretty good. After several shaky games, the 'Horns have played well the last two weeks. Even if you still think they
