I was out last week sick. If you haven’t figured out that you should bet your mortgage payment on Indiana to cover…I am here to help. You missed one of the best money trains I’ve seen since Hurts at OU & Cig’s JMU teams. I cashed out a couple weeks ago at just over $40,000.00. not too bad considering I started with $2,000. There were many many bets hit that were not documented in this blog. I have a system and it’s a little too much to detail week in and week out. I also parlay from time to time. Should you want to see which bets were bundled take a look back at the larger amounts. Never hit more than a 4 leg. Believe me I tried. Also, if you win more than you lose…go buy bitcoin. Do yourself a favor and invest.
That being said. I lost a very large one yesterday…new TRD Sequoia payoff money. Thanks A&M. It was a parlay, just needed the aTm cover. The SEC script has been on full display since we got jobbed in Norman. All I have really done is read between the lines and think to myself “What would Sank do?” “What would I tell Sank to do if I was the person at Disney who’s job it is to keep the SEC investment ROI producing?” That’s pretty much what I’ve ridden to the bank.
At the beginning of the year I detailed what we do with the winnings. Wifey is choosing the Valentines Vacation landing spot, leaning towards another trip to Nayara in Costa Rica possible week in St. Augustine. Dunno yet. She’s got my LLC’s Amex so I’ll get the notification shortly after she decides. Christmas has been ordered. I buy my own presents. I got new boots and a belt. Should’ve bought the candle, Tecovas smells amazing. I’d rather not buy my own presents but nobody shops the lists I keep on Apple Notes, life hack share a shopping list on Notes with your spouse. Rather not get a garbage shirt from Orvis that I could’ve gotten 40% off of with my Pro Discount. I’ll grab the 828U after the Playoffs.
Rivalry Week Picks
Ohio St. -7.5 v. Michigan [O/U 44.5]
I am in on the over here. Could backfire. Ohio State hasn’t played anyone so there hasn’t been any need to score a lot. I don’t see Michigan scoring a ton of points against a generationally great defense. Seriously go watch them. Michigan has been owning this rivalry so OSU should be ready to roll. Staying away from the spread and the moneyline is too much. 44.5 points just doesn’t seem like enough hate here, taking over.
Texas Tech -31.5 v. West Virginia [O/U 55.5]
Could the tortilla throwers stfu about the B12 strength of scheduled. The spread is 31.5, that means you don’t play anyone. Seriously, stfu. Your conference champ gets to play in the CFP, the #2 will get what’s left after the portal SEC team that doesn’t wanna be there. The B12 team will win and talk about it on twitter. I’m taking Texas Tech to cover and the over. They gotta beat em bad right now. Bet the storyline.
Miami -7.5 v. Pitt [O/U 44.5]
It’s really funny how the conferences will put all this crap in the media cycle to try and prop up their case for the CFP. Pitt sucks. I mean they suck suck. I could go oilfield on here but no, let’s keep it clean. Miami to cover and the over.
UCF v. BYU -17.5 [O/U 46.5]
Mormons have to win in such a way that people will take them seriously. Dunno how that’ll go over in the deep south. But if anything Mormon’s are resilient and there when you least expect it. I’ll take a shot on them to prove they’re relevancy. I will only bet the over here though.
ULM v. ULL -10.5 [O/U 47.5]
Wanted to give a little back story on my alma mater’s mascot. The P-40 Warhawk was flown by General Claire Lee Chennault’s Flying Tigers in China prior to WW2. That’s where it came from as ULM did not have the funds to bribe a local tribe into allowing them to remain the Indians. I am constantly pissed that I can’t get badass WW2 aviation themed merch from where I went to school. But…outside of the view overlooking the bayou from the library…Funroe is a shithole.
These schools hate each other. I do mean hate. They actually sued each other over the use of the un-hyphenated Univ. of Louisiana moniker. I had just graduated from ULM. Believe me when I say ‘ULL’ the Univ. of Louisiana at Lafayette is the real Univ. of Louisiana. They hate LSU just as much as any fan base. If you wear purple and gold to a sporting event someone will bring you a red shirt for the game if they let you stay. Can’t really understand what they’re saying … usually they wanna know what you want to eat, how you’re doing, when’s the last time you went to church. The Warhawks have the best uniforms outside of Oregon but ULL has the culture. ULM has a helluva view from the library overlooking a bayou. But that’s it. Cajuns by a million.
Mizzou -4.5 v. Arkansas [O/U 54.5]
Arkansas on the biggest whiff in college football not hiring Gus Malzahn. But they’re probably landing Alex Golesh. Just take the over. Don’t think too much about this. Thank the lawd Drink was extended. I’m sure anyone reading this is aware of his mediocre record, I don’t have to educate on how bad he is. Over.
Vanderbilt v. Tennessee -2.5 [O/U 65.5]
Ok so I’m on a rare under here. I think Pavia fatigue has set it, I blame ESPN for having a cameraman dedicated to Diego’s mom. I am betting Vandy to win moneyline +124.
LSU v. Oklahoma -10.5 [O/U 35.5]
I can see a world where Sank sacrifices a team to appease the masses. SEC will have Ole Miss, UGA, Bama, Texas, aTm, in the playoff. OU just doesn’t fit the big picture. Over all day here, less than 40 points. I really want OU to lose this game. I am taking LSU to win +370.
FSU v. Florida -1.5 [O/U 48.5]
I like the Gus Bus. FSU to cover -5.5 pays +164.
Alabama -5.5 v. Auburn [O/U 46.5]
My favorite Iron Bowl memory would be rolling a house because they had a Bama flag in high school. Going to church and over hearing them discuss why someone would roll them. Note I grew up in North Louisiana.
Not getting into night game lore and all that. Auburn’s defense is going to have to be lights out. Kicking will have to be on point like Al Del Greco or Anders. Gonna look alot like Bama v OU. Bama is in the CFP regardless of the outcome. Which is good for us, SEC makes more money on a 6 win Auburn. Bama money line is -210, Auburn moneyline is +176. The spread sits less than a TD. THOSE DO NOT JIVE. Of course I’m taking Auburn. I am taking them +5.5, -5.5 paying +290, and the over.
Happy Iron Bowl everyone.
