2 weeks ago 3/4 now…21/27 $1600/$1000. 60% ROI…it was 90% with a low of 40%. No games were worth looking at last week and tornadoes….this week, not so many either, so let’s get to it:

Clemson at #23 Pittsburgh 3:30 PM ESPN: My beloved Panthers are 4 point dogs at home against an UN-RANKED Clemson Tigers. Pickett (QB, PITT) can very well be playing on Sunday when he is done in college. The kid is good. PITT covers at home.

USC at #13 Notre Dame 7:30 PM NBC: The Trojans stink. ND needs a big win here and are 7 point favorites. ND covers.

Slim pickings again this week.

Last week 3/4 today…21/27 $1600/$1000. 60% ROI…it was 90% with a low of 40%

No football bets today, none of the games are enticing me. I had to call off tonight as it appears that there was a tornado or a microburst and the area looks like a war zone, I lost many shingles, gutters, siding, sofit and fascia. Here are trees down in our very local area and damage to all the houses in a two block wide path.

The chainsaws are running, power crews are out, and I’ve gotta clean up. Mrs Coldwarrior and the children heard the tornado warnings and went into the basement. No one hurt, just a bunch of cleaning up to do…and bbq some ribs. Can’t clean up without bbq!

Last week was an abysmal 2/7 -$500, so we are at 18/23 $1400/$1000. 40% ROI…it was 90%

ITS AN OPEN THREAD, DISCUSS WHAT YINZ WANT

I’m in the middle of 5 days in a row…so lets make this quick:

#6 Oklahoma at #21 Texas 12:00 PM ABC…Texas is getting 3.5. Huh? OU covers.

#13 Arkansas at #17 Ole Miss 12:00 PM ESPN…Both teams lost last week. They had to play the best programs in the country. The Razorbacks are getting 5 and Ole Miss covers.

#4 Penn State at #3 Iowa 4:00 PM FOX…This is gonna be a great game, easily the game of the week. Winner is top dog in the Big 10. Iowa ia a 1.5 point dog at home, PSU Covers.

I’m too tired to do any more research. Night Yinz!

WAITAMINUTE!

#9 Michigan at Nebraska 7:30 PM ABC…M is only a 2 point favorite??? Tyey had better beat this spread!

***That’s better, 3/4 today…21/27 $1600/$1000. 60% ROI…it was 90% with a low of 40%***

It’s an open thread, discuss what yinz like.

WOOOT! 3/3 last week! so we are at 14/19 $1900/$1000. 90% ROI! But again, I would never bet real money on a bunch of amateur college boys.

That said, let’s look at some games for this week. It’s shakeout week, a lot of unbeatens are playing each other.

#8 Arkansas at #2 Georgia 12:00 PM ESPN: The Razorbacks….SUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEE…PIG! were my big pick to upset TAMU last week. They did not disappoint. But, jeeze…they are at the Georgia Bulldogs who are playing damn near perfect ball. Hogs ended up with some key injuries tho. The line is 16.5 points given by the Bulldogs. The line started at 19 and the money went on the pigs there after and I’m stuck with this one. Given the trend, I’ll say the Razorbacks cover, but I’m not in love with this pick.

#14 Michigan at Wisconsin 12:00 PM FOX: Look, It’s put up or shut up time for M. M has to win this game, period. Yes, they are undefeated, BUT…W has stomped them the last two times out and still has a top 5 defense. W is giving 2 at home and M hasn’t played anyone of standing yet. I can easily see W beating this spread.

Pittsburgh at Georgia Tech 12:00 PM ACCN: If Miami had the same record as Pitt, they would be ranked #12 or higher. This game always cracks me up, GT and PITT are the same school in different cities! The vibe is so similar. GT is the 3 point favorite and my Beloved Panthers do not cover.

Duke at North Carolina 12:00 PM ESPN2: HA!!! It’s not Basketball season yet!

#7 Cincinnati at #9 Notre Dame 2:30 PM NBC: The heathens from Cinci and their devil-creation Skyline Chili will be at the Humble and Godly Catholic Men of Notre Dame. Like them or not, ND almost always has the toughest schedule and is always in the spotlight because of that. Kelly just passed St Rockne for most wins @ ND. The line is Cinci GIVING 2 at The Golden Dome. Oh, hell no, wake up the echoes, ND covers! Nope, Cinci covers.

#12 Ole Miss at #1 Alabama 3:30 PM CBS: OK, Alabama has to actually play some one. God love Ole Miss an this is why the spread matters. Alabama is giving 16.5. I do think that Ole Miss can cover.

Indiana at #4 Penn State 7:30 PM ABC: IU has ruined PSU twice in recent years. PSU is a 12.5 favorite and will beat this spread at home. Pay Back Time.

Arizona State at #20 UCLA 10:30 PM FS1: This might be the best game of the day. The Sun Devils are Giving 3 and UCLA covers at home.

***UGH…2/7 -$500, so we are at 18/23 $1400/$1000. 40% ROI…it was 90 🙁 ***
