Guys, we have had quite the run in college football. This is it Bama vs Texas in Pasadena CA. I looked at both, long and hard. I'm a Texas fan because I was there when VY took over. I didnt want personal feelings to come between them, so I looked over all stats and trends and couldnt see it any other way. Even NCAA 2010 by EA sports had the right scores, lol.

8****ALA-3, yep I'm paying for this one (might not need it)
10****ALA/TEX UNDER 46

I only joined yesterday, so Ive not had the advantage of following your Tips but reading previous treads you are certainly one GEARED up indiviual.
Im from Australia so NFL/Amercian Football is not a common sport in our country, but I can tell you that there is growing support each year and to find a forum like this with well clued up people certainly helps us people who are far away from the action.(ESPN/FOX certainly helps )

Anyway dont want to BLAB on to much. All the best with the final tomorrow, and I will be following UNDERS and Alambama.

PS> Im no trumpet blower but did have CM-2.5, Iowa +5.5 and Boise +7.5 last 3 games.

Thanks for the good reading.

Here's to a strong finish in CFB and rolling right into the NFL playoffs

[roflc0pter]

BOL...

Been riding Alabama ever since the line came out. Now to buy it down to 3 or not is the question

[RockoSocko]

i'll be playing the under pretty hard... but being from austin i just can't bet against the horns... I think they show up just like they did in 05, even without vince... and take home the upset!

[Busterflywheel]

Dammit Gu we would be on opposite sides for the main bang..Good thing is one of us is going to win

as much as it sucks to be on the other side of guru.... its good to be with someone else on texas! hook em!

[Skidcom]

Who am I to argue with success? Bama and the under it is. 1st half under may be the best play

[zagat]

damn it went to 4 at BJ. might haveta jump on texas now

[TheNFLGuru3]

Guys, this is by no means a give me.... if I were down a lot, I wouldnt play catch up here.... I up a ton so I'm playing hard. Texas is very good and can win this game, do I think it will happen.... my money is on the Bama D. Texas got shut down with a good Nebraska D. I'm all over a low scoring game here. Sometimes, betting with your heart will cost you money, but sometimes it will work... all depends on what team shows up.

[TheNFLGuru3]

Skid, love that 1st half under too.

[bobby heenan]

im thinking about a tease...bama +2/under 51....what do u think?

[TheNFLGuru3]

If teasing Bama to +2, I would not. Why??? What if they dont win, what are the chances of a cover at +2? Tease to +3 or more at least just to have a little protection.... isnt that the strategy behind teasing? Not comfortable with the regular spread and want more points?

[blackbeSSt]

guru whats a good first half under to take?

[RockoSocko]

i'm going to put a little on texas... and parlay the under as well

[ouman101]

So much better conversation in this thread than there are in many of the others. Glad to see that there is still some place where you can find constructive talk about the game, and not just "I'm better than you, so the team I pick is going to win".

BTW, can't wait to see what you got in those playoff games Guru

[paste_me]

guru, i'm going with the under in the first half and if that pan out im going to throw some more on the second half. what do you think?


on a side note, man when i listen to the bama kids talk they seem real motived compared to the texas kids...

[TheNFLGuru3]

I do like Bama a lot, just biased a little like what if my team pulls it out... like ROcko. Good luck Rocko, think you might need it on Texas. Agreed Paste... under and under, what 1st half under did you get Paste? True, Bama wants it a lot!!! When was last time they were there?

[SamsonSharp]

Guru Ive seen your threads you've had a great run on college games,
But im on Texas tonight so i hope you lose this one (you can win the under though lol)

Look forward to seeing your playoff picks

[BennyFang]

I have about the same amount of confidence in Alabama SU & the under. -4 is a little fat for me, so.....

Parlay @ +172:

UA ML -180
under 47 -130


Teaser @ -130:

Texas +3
under 53

Still may put a straight wager on under. I have to say I have seen absolutely no one take the over here.

BOL

[blackbeSSt]

guru how does 23 sound as the under for first half?

[selfmade415]

so no one sees bama runnin away in this game takin points would be the smart play?

I got 24, bought 1 point cause I didn't want to get hung on they got 3 touchdowns and a field goal. A push is always better than a lose.

guru im with you on both brother "sweet home alabama" they my favorite team in ncaaf... Lets cash it!@

[whoatommy]

locked in at -4...i hope it's not 1 too many points

[DOMINATER]

GURU Im with bama , they have the abilty to swarm and hit hard on def. on offensive side they have improved from last.colt doent play well against strong teams.mcCoy will be forced to throw the long passes the outside precision passes while Alabama will be sending their best players to upset his timing blitzing whenever needed. MCcoy will scramble once he gets this heavy duty pressure, if he starts getting popped by the third quarter he will be runniing out of gas. His def line will have a night ofgettting doubled team and by the fourth quarter they will be worn out. good luck everyone no mattter what side ,I am taking alabama winning by a touchdown or two

[bballs84]

BOL like always!!!

[whoatommy]

I got faith in ya Guru! 0-6....no worries

[SportNut]

Got Bama -4 today...local book

[paste_me]

under is super FCKED
