What you get in at?

I think the best value is on Stanford. If they make it through UW and UCLA, you could sell for a profit before the Oregon game.

Or hold on to them and bet on Oregon ML for the game.

Thinking of buying Stanford as well.

Got Louisville at $35/each (somehow price went down), got Fla st at $35/each, and Oregon a few weeks ago at $80/each.

Made good money on it last year. Had USC and sold for a 50% profit before the season and sold Oregon last year 2 weeks before they lost their first game for a 50% profit.

LSU is a good buy now. But you'd be better off betting ML against UGA and Bama if you're just doing it for profit.

I just got two Stanford. Comes down to Oregon game. Would be badass if Bama plays Stanford.

Does it basically work like the stock market, but for tickets?

If I reserve these certain tickets and said team does make it, then those tickets are officially mine for that price I paid?

TIA

Reserving the right to pay face value.

So price you paid + 325. But secondary markets will be way above that.

whatever you paid plus face value of the tickets.

Thats the risk, do I hold on to the tix and lose it all if they lose, but I could also win alot of money if they make it to the title game.

Just a tad bit higher than the less than a TD I was expecting.


Jokes aside, I will absolutely play Arkansas at anything above 14.

I think that's a good bet. Arkansas's defense is improved over last year, and is better than people give them credit for... and Arky's strength offensively matches up well with A&M's defense. they're also taking a lot of young players (especially on defense) on the road for the first time this season.

arkansas was a 4th and 13 stop away from beating rutgers by double digits... had they made that stop instead of giving up a TD, this line is under 10.

I told myself I'd play a couple units on anything under 17. I think at minimum, TAMU wins something like 37-20.

I like Wazzou this weekend. Getting 10.5 on a neutral field vs a Stanford team that looks vulnerable this season.

Wazzou's Defense is really stingy (who would've thought for a Mike Leach team?).

they have an experienced QB and some decent playmakers... granted, they're not TAMU.

Regardless, Manziel will get his points... arkansas covers b/c they can run the ball and eat up clock.

Saw a few pages back that a few people liked the under in the tulsa game tonight. Been looking at that and tech tonight(hoping this gets down to 7 or lower, but still might play it at the 7.5 that my book has it at right now). Anyone else got some thoughts on these two games tonight?

So far I just have VTech at -7. Might snag the over at 42.
