We made it to the bye week. I really thought we would’ve split at least one of the past two. Now we gotta listen to all the soft fans complain about the coach. We are ahead of schedule. They forgot how bad we were, you can’t get it back in 3. This is a 5 year process. Chill. A genuine rebuild takes 5, it’s absolutely crazy how far we’ve come since Agent Harsin left. I call him Agent Harsin because, I believe, he was sent by the Red Elephant Clubs to break us from the inside. AS FOR HUGH, if we lose 7, fair chance he’s gone. If we lose more than 7, he’s for sure gone.
Week 5 Recap
How we look now? Listening yet?
Yeah, so I pretty much killed it last week. Basically every week but week 1 which doesn’t count except for the Auburn call. So yeah all losses don’t count. I’m playing with Monopoly money now that I’ve 5X’d the gambling fund. I already know what I’m buying myself at the end of the season… Benelli 828u 20g. Also, have to plan on where I’m taking my wife in February since a new shiny over under will be arriving…private boat to the Bahamas run about $2500 round trip, stay for a week? I would like to surprise her so y”all be cool and don’t tell her if you see me at the Georgia game.
I’m bringing cajun food, boiled peanuts, and my fam. Holla at me on Discord so we can talk picks and drink some Shiner at the tailgate. It will be my son’s first Auburn football game. We saw Auburn Basketball on the road in Baton Rouge last season. Mr. Auburn and Haad sat with him for about 10 minutes and just talked Pokemon. He to this day sees Dylan on the TV and says “HEY THAT’S MY FRIEND DYLAN”
- Gus Bus rolled again and I’m betting on it ’til it loses.
- Indiana not hitting the cover in Iowa is a little concerning. Iowa is where offenses go to die. That hospital they wave at…that’s really for offense and people who bet the over & cover.
- Lane lied. I need to make sure we are watching the first couple of series in a game to get a feel. Been doin that all year. LSU v. Ole Miss was just the one last week.
- Oregon traveling cross country playing at their biological midnight in a Happy Valley …no brainer on the under. What the Penn State defense did is amazing. Great game. Penn State lined up fullbacks. Old School. Keep your eye on them rest of the season. I expect to wager a bit more on them throughout the season.
- Bama got hit by the Gusbus week one and now they’re pissed. And that sucks.
NOW, Georgia is coming into town ready to open a can and we can’t figure out that it’s cool to use a silent count in a deafening environment. I don’t get it.
Week 6 Picks
I don’t see many large bets on the table this week in the SEC. I ran down the odds offered on Fanduel. This is what popped out. May change my mind tomorrow but I like how this all fits for me right now. Won’t bet em all but This is what I think is the most probable to work out.
West Virginia v. BYU -20.5 [O/U 46.5] Friday 9:30
BYU is playing great defense…for their conference…c’mon man. I’m not dumb. They aren’t Texas A&M. I’m saying West Virginia is gonna have a hard time Friday night. I’m on the under and I added this right before I submitted the blog.
Kentucky +19.5 v UGA [O/U 48.5] 11:00
Even Georgia on a revenge game that’s just too many points. I’ll take a cover on Kentucky here. I’ll be paying close attention to the defensive shells and offensive formations in this one. Auburn has a very real chance to beat UGA. Criminal this kicks off before noon. Criminal.
Iowa State v. Cincinnati -1.5 [O/U 55.5] 11:00
Iowa State is on an up year. I think they’re better and not really the underdog here. Taking Iowa State to win, money line.
Texas -5.5 v. Florida [O/U 42.5] 2:30
Seriously, you think Florida is gonna cover here? Napier gets fired after the blowout. I’m taking Texas to cover. Forecast looks bad here. Y’all don’t check the weather before betting an over? Rookies. I’m not touching the over.
Vanderbilt v. Alabama -12.5 [O/U 56.5] 2:30 *Watching the first drives
I don’t think Vandy has a shot here. They snuck on em last year. This Bama ain’t playing around. You telling me Vandy is as good as Georgia? Look I LOVE Pavia and his Mom. Shout out Theo who used to drive my wife to junior high. He was dating her neighbor’s older sister. Lots of laugh til you cry stories, He’s cool and a genuinely good human being.
I want to take the over here but I dunno. I really don’t like anything here other than Bama to cover. That’s what makes sense. Vandy to win is +315 which is too good to pass up. Definitely watching the first drives to gauge pace and make a call. Playing in Tuscaloser is different than Vandy. I don’t like Pavia’s chances in there. They’re not sneaking up on anyone this year. A 13 point win over Pavia is nuts.
Texas Tech -11.5 v. Houston [O/U 64.5] 6:00
Midland oil money will be on full display. Did you know the State of Texas has an entire department of government dedicated solely to managing the oil and gas rights donated to universities? Tax breaks dawg. In my day to day life I am an oil and gas landman. Yes like the show. I know how to research how much the wells make over at the Texas Rail Road Commission GIS site. It’s crazy. Millions of dollars per day per well. This could be the largest bet of the week. Texas Tech to cover. I’m leaning under.
Mississippi St. v. Texas A&M -15.5 [O/U 56.5] 6:30
How much better is Auburn than Mississippi State? How much cowbell have we watched this year? I saw the Arizona State game to one Benchmark Sun Devil strength and two Dillingham is on my list for the next coach at Auburn. I’m going under only here. That’s a lot of points and Mississippi State may be better than we think. Their QB has a howitzer for an arm. Ags win but I doubt they cover.
Miami -4.5 v. FSU [O/U 53.5] 6:30
Don’t overthink this one. Lotta points. As Auburn fans we certainly know about Gussin so control yourself on the size of the wager. You know damn well nobody knows which Gus is showing up. Only take the over.
Minnesota v. Ohio State -23.5 [O/U 43.5] 6:30
Ohio State may hit the over without any help from Minnesota. That’s what I’m betting on here. Not worried about a spread. Pure points play. Minnesota is terrible. Taking the over.
RISK MANAGEMENT IS THE GAME. GO LOOK AT HOW I HAVE PLAYED THE GAMES. I WIN AND I LOSE … WHAT I DON’T DO IS LOSE MY SHIRT.
BE RESPONSIBLE.
