I ground out a small positive. Judging from how poorly I felt I did handicapping I was surprised.

I would guess the players had a decent win day on Saturday.

Haha hit an 8 teamer (that I just threw in for the heck of it) and went 8-1 with one play left in week 1. Yea, all-in-all it was an opening week to remember.

When favorites go 29-16 in week 1....you know it's not going to be good for me. I went 2-5 but had a decent size chase play on the CAL ML (I know) in addition to my regular play on CAL. Even though I lost, that game last night made me feel like i won for the weekend.

Which one did you consider a no-brainer? I thought Bowling Green was straight criminal but also thought that about the alleged powerful USC Trojans x 5. If I wouldnt have bet my life on Manchester United in soccer I wouldve taken a beating.

To be honest I loved Utah, then their slippery QB separated his shoulder and his backup couldnt move the pill at all.

I really liked Kansas over a strong but MAC team completely out of its element.

When Tennessee hit +7 I liked that alot to but damn Cal looked sooo fast.
