I like teasers because it's Week 1.

There are so many unknowns and I'm an "eyeballs" bettor.

Expert analysis is kinda of silly right now. This is a "feel it out" week.


How does that justify teasers?

You don't know anything so you counteract that by making a terrible bet?

I don't doubt Tennessee is recruiting better now, but it is going to take some time before they get better and gel. Expect a tight game. Utah St is due for a win against the big boys. Don't forget they nearly beat USC at the coliseum last year.

I also locked in Arkansas +21


They were better last year.

Keeton is 10 months off a torn ACL and MCL. No way he's the same Keeton.

I might have maybe done that three or four times.

Alcohol imbibing may have preceded any of the blackjack sessions I may have participated in.

But but but...the Costa Rican dealer girl was HOT!

Who the frick are you to say something is a terrible bet? You don't think successful gamblers never tease games, parlay, or buy points? Straight betting isn't the only way to win.

You sound like a guy who has rebuy every year because you clearly don't know shite about the variety of ways to cash tickets...

If I could open a sportsbook that could do 100% of my volume on NCAAF 3-team 10-pt teaser at -115 juice I would. I definitely agree with him that the logic of using this week one is off. If there are higher levels of uncertainty you just compound the uncertain outcome by needing three results.

Theoretically a combo 10pt teaser would be more effective once the models for setting the lines have 6-8 weeks of data.

OK CFB bet thread all-stars, it's getting down to crunch time. T minus 35 hours or so until the start of the real college football season.

Had a health scare this last year that put things in perspective so even though everything is good I'm still knocking off as many bucket list items as I can. So far in the last few months I've checked off WSOP and Yellowstone although I plan to do both again. Next up is winning the Supercontest.

To enter I'm taking $500 on 2 opening weekend games. The second will be Baylor on Sunday, but I need help coming up with a Thu-sat game to start it. Right now I'm looking at the over in the Wazzou game (via Brian Edwards), U of Houston, miss st, LSU (really, really don't want to use this but I think it's a great bet), and Arizona against a UNLV team they dominated last year breaking in a new QB. Also open to Florida, A&M (will probably play them on the ML somewhere)....

Talk to me brethren of the TD CFB bet thread.

I think this is a mistake.
Sure there are a lot of unknowns, but what that does is there are a lot of lines that can be taken advantage of if you do your "research," especially on units the average Joe doesn't care about (OL and DL). Once you have more data to go by, so does the average Joe and that usually closes the gap between perception and reality, which means the lines are tighter.

i know that if i would have played the first week of the season the past two years i would have been 5-12.. i gotta go back and check three years ago, but i believe that would bump me to 7-15
