YTD: 73-56 +16.29 Units
Last week was pretty damn bad. MM really came into use considering I went 2-6 and still only lost 3% of my bankroll. This will be the last week of the season I wager big money as rivalry week hasn't treated me good the last three seasons. All plays will be 1/2 units unless there is a line that is really really good.
Thank you to everyone who have been supportive and everyone who injects good vibes.
1.5* USC -2.5 -110
1* USC -2.5 -100 (made this wager with my father)
This will counted as one play.
This Trojans team is getting healthy, offensive line is back to being pne of the best in the nation, three solid RBs Washington has been playing very good lately rushing for over 220yds last week vs Cal, Stafon Johnson is avg over 6.1ypc this season and is hard to tackle. Joe McKnight has dangerous speed and is a star in the making.
Offensive Line is simply awesome and really the best part of the offense. Booty has time to pass and the RBs are getting open holes to run through.
Hazelton and Turner are pretty good Tall WRs who are improving, Fred Davis is an athletic extremely good senior TE IMO he is one of the top 3-4 TE's in the nation.
ASU is mistake prone,they tend start games off bad, they can't afford to do that vs the Trojans. I've watched both of these teams many times I've basically have seen every game these teams played...... I feel USC is the better team.
ASU has not seen a defense like the Trojans. Let's look at their schedule.
Next to the Opponent is where they rank defensively.
Schedule
Date Opponent Time/Result
Sep 1 San Jose St. #76 Won 45-3
Sep 8 Colorado #51 Won 33-14
Sep 15 San Diego St. #105 Won 34-13
Sep 22 Oregon St. #10 (so overrated) Won 44-32
Sep 29 @Stanford #107 Won 41-3
Oct 6 @Washington St. #81 Won 23-20
Oct 13 Washington #95 Won 44-20
Oct 27 California #55 Won 31-20
Nov 3 @Oregon #74 Lost 23-35
Nov 10 @UCLA #46 Won 24-20
Nov 22 Southern Cal .#3 8:00pm
Dec 1 Arizona 8:00pm
Let's look at their schedule one more time, but let's put their team ranking nxt to the name...
Schedule
Date Opponent Time/Result
Sep 1 San Jose St. #79th best team Won 45-3
Sep 8 Colorado #68 Won 33-14
Sep 15 San Diego St. #86 Won 34-13
Sep 22 Oregon St. #33 Won 44-32
Sep 29 @Stanford #84 Won 41-3
Oct 6 @Washington St. #80 Won 23-20
Oct 13 Washington #83 Won 44-20
Oct 27 California #36 Won 31-20
Nov 3 @Oregon #2 Lost 23-35
Nov 10 @UCLA #74 Won 24-20
Nov 22 Southern Cal. 8:00pm
Dec 1 Arizona 8:00pm
Other than Oregon which who they lost to comfortably they haven't played a Top #33 team all season. Look at the two top 30 teams: OSU and Cal both teams have a lot of issues and coached horribly and these were home games too. USC has a great coach and the issues have gone away. CUPCAKE SCHEDULE
As most will agree USC could beat anyone in the nation. ASU will have their troubles here, Shaky Carpenter especially. Look at what the USC defense has done in their last five games..
Oct 13 Arizona Won 20-13
Oct 20 @Notre Dame Won 38-0
Oct 27 @Oregon Lost 17-24
Nov 3 Oregon St. Won 24-3
Nov 10 @California Won 24-17
Arizona has the 9th best pass offense in football
Oregon has a sick offense
Oregon St couldn't score
Cal's talented offense could only muster 17pts @ Home
USC's defense is sickly good right now
DEF RUSH
USC ranked 9th in the nation
DEF PASS
USC ranked 7th in the nation
Now some people might argue that ASU has the better offense, If they do it's by a small margin.
OFF RUSH
USC #32
ASU #48
OFF PASS
USC #60
ASU #34
I truly believe USC's offense is underrated, the offense tends to play at the opponents level, they can score...
I'd really like some early thoughts on here, thought this might be a good idea considering a lot of folks on here are looking forward to betting and watching it.
I've followed USC,Oregon and ASU closer than any other team this season.
1.5* Boise St +5.5
Boise St is a balanced offensive team, Hawaii is not.
OFF RUN
Boise: 21st
Hawaii: 113th
OFF PASS
Boise St: 17th
Hawaii: 2nd
Boise St has the better defense as well
DEF RUSH
Boise: 26th
Hawaii: 30th
DEF PASS:
Boise: 14th
Hawaii: 55th
Boise St's QB Taylor Tharp has been playing as good or even better than Colt Brennan. Tharp has thrown less INTs 8 for Tharp, 12 for Brennan.
Freshman WR Austin Pettis is looking like a future ALL-American, he is tall and has great hands. 6 TDs for the freshman who just started getting some playing time.
WR Jeremy Childs has caught 74 passes this season another one with good hands. This duo is awesome!!
Titus Young is no slouch either with 5 TDs sick ass receiving corp.
Hawaii's secondary is going to get smoked here. Boise St will be able to concentrate on Hawaii passing attack, Hawaii will have to concentrate on both sides of the ball cause BSU is balanced. Ian Johnson has almost ran for 1.000yds and has 14TDs. Freshman Jeremy Avery is a lightning spark and a real change of pace.
BSU should have no problems scoring here.
I like Boise and the points.
0.5* Kentucky -1.5
Vols aren't the same at home. UK has beaten a lot of good teams at home. Look at what Tenn has done on the road and you might like UK 2.
0.5* Virginia +4
Virginia is tough @ home. They tend to play close games too so these points are nice.
0.5* Utah +5.5
Utah is really under the radar. They have a good resume
They killed UCLA
Defeated Louisville on the road
6 of their 8 wins have been by more than 16pts.
I'll take the points... Thanks
0.5* Missouri +3
Think there is a 50/50 chance Missouri wins this game. Kansas hasn't played a team with a pulse all season and it's not like this game is @ Kansas. I know the crowd will consist of mostly Jayhawks but Missouri has been solid on the road this season. I really think Missouri is going to have success vs the Jayhawks, Chase Daniel is the ****ing man.
Well there you have it. Might have a play or two later.
Thanks for reading this and have a great day.Last edited by imgv94; 11-19-07 at 10:33 PM.SBR Founder Join Date: 11/16/2005

I'm glad I got off of Boise St a little bit.
Hopefully there is no shocker in those two games tomorrow.
This week 1-1 +0.90 Units 2-1 +1.4 if WV and Cincy win.
Small bets tomorrow and next week too.

1-4 right now and if Missouri covers and cincy just wins I can still secure a profit for the week.
