Football is coming! Finally.

Been hitting on some baseball lately, enough to put some flier money on crazy props and lucky enough to hit a couple of them too.

I like a few today so I felt like posting them here.

Ben Lively Over 4.5 K's today
Atlanta Braves -1.5 runs
TB/NYY Over 8 runs

Welcome back, one and all.

August has become my 'prep month'. Looking ahead at rosters, injury reports, depth charts, schedules, etc etc. Already eyeing up an early line for Nod - Navy, in Dublin which sat at -20, last I checked.

My goal is to bounce back from last years tepid season and go well over + money from my 2021 results. Ultimately I'm just happy to have the football season on the horizon.

Looking forward to sharing with all of you. Good luck to us, let's avoid bad beats and have a fantastic 2023.

I had a good thing going with ISU last year but that is uh, in limbo now.

JaX State ML v Utep *
SDSU v USC O 66 * God damn, is that SC defense sad.
Navy + 21 v NoD (bought the half point) X Navy dline just wasn't there.
Hedged and got a late team Over of 34.5 for NoD *

Solid enough start to the season.

So I'm new to this gambling stuff. But I figured I can lose a little bit of money for the year. Here's what I have so far:

Ohio State to win National championship. $25 bet. It looks like it could pay out $212.50.
Alabama -7 vs. Texas - (sept 9) - this is just a $5 bet.
LSU -2.5 vs. Florida State - $10 bet.
Ohio State -30 vs. Indiana - $10 bet.

I figure I'll play around a little all season long, and then bet whatever is left of my initial $100 on The Game (minus the national championship bet, I guess).
See if I have any money at the end of the year.

I think this will be the first year in at least a decade that I won't have a bet on tOSU to win the Natty. No Gamblin here in Tejas and my brothers annual trip to Vegas didn't happen this year....

Not sure how, or even if, I'm going to roll on Utah v Florida.

Too many reports on Cam Rising, the line has gone from utes -7 and dropped to -4 in some places. Then the O/U is at 44.5 with 44 being a key number. Even with shoddy QB play, 44 total points in college football with today's game is just playing with the hottest fire on an under.

I'll end up taking a look at NcState v Uconn and Minny v Corn.

Man I love football and it's good to be back in the casino's also. Took most of the summer off with the occasional DK's baseball play.

Going with a big 4 team underdog play today to start the weekend off. Got lucky on my first 3 teamer last night with that late GT score so theres a bit more cushion for Saturday.

Colorado +24.5
Utah State +28
Louisiana Tech +24.5
Rice +36.5

Feel like Rice is the biggest question mark in the group but they get 5 TDs plus and a running clock so they only need about 10 points I'm guessing.

Also going in on the Buckeye's Over 59. I think the Bucks will score 50 so if we give up 10 it's a win. I'll take it.

Happy Days are here again!

As a rule of thumb, unless they're free bets I don't parlay. But I did follow you on that and went CL + 21

I usually go all singles too, which I did today, but the parlay was like +1250 so a $5 bet is $75 win or something like that. I only play $20 per game usually, $50 on something I feel great about or if I'm up big so I'm not high rolling in the least anymore. Too much stress for that. LA Tech needs to start scoring.

I guess I should state that so someone doesn't get a crazy idea that reads these posts.
