:pepper: I HOUSE bet> i won! Gbo!
Worley 3 bad throws, had good zip & Confidence.
I wouldn't complain about the lack of run game, good coaching IMO. It was not there, they loaded the box as to let Worley bird beat them, he did.
Defense 1st team can ball. Need more depth yet for SEC play.
A.J.Johnson= Beast. Clearly he wants to give his all for Tennessee!
Good game. but need to score more TD'S in SEC play.
O-Line has to stop dumb penalties!!!
We win 7-9 games this year depending on bounces.

Just an honest question, not demeaning anyone's choice of activity, but can experienced betters come out ahead on a regular basis, when betting on sports? Movies, of course only portray the betters that lose everything. Do people earn a living off of betting? Do high stakes betters watch every detail of game leadup such as injury reports, weather forecast, etc? Its a fascinating world.

The answer is yes. There are more people than you know who make very good livings as professional gamblers. Many specialize in an area like horse racing or pro football and know everything they need to know to be successful. They are not usually plunking down bets in the hundreds its a k and up and its a numbers game. The successful ones cover a variety where no one game destroys their opportunity for overall success. When we go off to work 8 hours they do as well going over all the info to succeed.

This vid is fantastic!

I placed and won my first sports bet. Now the question, who's betting on the Arky State game and who's got other games that the lines set so they might as well just give your winnings now?

I think the line is at -17 for the Vols right now. My hunch pre-research on Ark State is they will cover that comfortably. I would have guessed we win by 25-30 points.

Thanks for the response. From what I've seen, they've got a mobile QB (Keeton 2.0) and will be looking to pin us deep with their kicking game. Will be important to have top notch special teams and execute well early. I'll wait and see what Vegas does with this one and research ASU a little more. Are you betting on this one?

My money this weekend would be Missouri to cover the 5 point spread on Toledo.

Took us to cover the 16 against Arky State and Mizzou to cover the 5 against Toledo... Small money on both but I drink cheap whiskey so no need to risk the coffee tin retirement LOL

Any games yall are looking into this weekend? Vols at -17.5 is too steep for me even though I think the Vols win pretty big and I don't want to touch the Over/Under.

I normally don't post, just read all the threads but I think I can add value in this area. I live in Las Vegas and work with several handicappers/so-called experts. My pick this week for a lock would be UNDER 50 on Ole Miss-Vandy. Think it ends up being a 31-7, 28-10 type of game.

How much of a "lock" do you feel the under is here? I know Vandy couldn't hold on to the ball or convert on 3rd down last week and they haven't named a QB but I'm scared Ole Miss may put up 41 and Vandy could muster up 10 points to hit the over

I'd say my confidence is a 9 on a scale of 1-10. Vandy's defense isn't terrible, Temple scored 37 because the Vandy offense had 7 turnovers and their defense got gassed. I highly doubt they have 7 turnovers again or anything close to that number. I don't think Vandy can score consistently on the Ole Miss Defense but I believe the Vandy Defense will step up. Sticking with UNDER 50.

I actually bit on the Vols this week.

UT -17
Toledo +3.5
Maryland -12.5
New Mexico +23.5

Got that Maryland line a couple days ago. Really like the Terps today

Regarding Vandy/Ole Miss, I simply cannot trust Bo Wallace to spot any SEC team 20 points...Even a JV SEC team like Vandy.
