General rule of thumb for myself - I don't take unders on prime time games. Over or nothing, with few exceptions.

Tuesday has turned into my NFL recon day. Scanning lines I like and want to take a further look at. So far I have

JAX v CIN - Over
WSH v ATL - Under
DET v CHI - DET ML & under
TEN v NYJ - TEN cover
CLE v MIN - Over
NYG v NO - Over

College football slate:

Miami -6, if King is cleared to play. He's questionable. UVA isn't great.
BYU/Utah State Over 59.5 *Seems everyone else like it too since it's now up to 61
Pitt -3.5
Arky/UGA Under 48.5
OSU -15.5 Jumped on it as soon as it was posted. I really feel like this is a 3 TD game for the Bucks
I also like the OSU/Rutgers Over. 4 out of the last 5 are over or pushed. It's at 58 and that's what I played it.
UTSA -20 vs UNLV
Boston College +14 and I had BC as my Moneyline pick of the week at +500

Lots of opportunities this weekend so definitely keep an eye on the swings between now and then. Good luck and have fun folks!

I did a bit opposite with UVA and Miami. Took the over & UVA ML.

Was looking at the UGA-Arky under. Didn't pull the trigger yet, might just now.

My man on that BC-Clemson with that BC moneyline, I did the same. Also took the under.

Edit: almost forgot - Took Maryland as the home dog for Friday vs Iowa.

D'Eriq King downgraded to doubtful for tonight so I'm likely just watching for the fun. No bet for me. Line went down to -5.

EDIT: forgot the Pro game tonight. Probably move the Miami college bet to the Over in Bengals/Jags and also a parlay Bengals -7/Over 46.

No F1 race this weekend, so no McLaren bets to be had. I'm starting to hone in on my stone cold locks of the week.

I'll do my usual take my money please bets on Ohio State.

Moneyline underdogs will be BC over Clemson and maybe Reno over Boise

Parlay will be Arky+, Bama- and a stone cold lock to be named later (probably crabcake over coach of the year)

Ohio State to win the NC is now up to 16:1. I already have a hundy at 5.5:1, so I might put another 25 down. Total payoff would be 950. Add the 1100 I get if Henderson wins the Heisman (his odds are now down to 50 to 1 from a 100 to 1 when I bet), and ORD might be having a great December and January if Ohio State can pull out the miracle:pimp:. Do you believe in miracles? I fucking believe in miracles!

Rough start. For real rough start. Seems Miami would have lost so I saved money to put on, whoops, the other loser in the Bengals Over. Good lord they got shut out the first half by the jags. LOL. Got the bourbon flowing, we got a long weekend yet to go folks.

Snuck in a Bengals +6.5 at the half for a 20 spot to try and get some back, though the Bengals all of a sudden remembered Offense. Keep that going and we'll have a real good finish.

The injury report had Taulapapa out for UVA but he looks like a warrior to me.

1-2 for Thursday night.

Missed the over for CIN-JAX by 1 point.
Missed the over for UVA-Miami by 4

UVA hit as the road dog that I doubled down on at +145. Can't complain that was my biggest wager of the 2. Just wish I could have gotten a field goal from Cincy in the 1st half or something.

Jags get any points when they got turned away the Over would have hit. Bad beat to start the week but it happens, all the time.

You're right, a bad beat but can't complain. I have to double check my logs, but I've been tracking and listing all my bets separated by the weeks. I forgot to update it starting Thursday, but I believe with the Green Bay & UVA road dog plus the miss on the two overs I just mentioned I should* be 35-14-2 overall on wagers. That includes spread, ML and O/U. Again, I really can't complain. My two pushes were by missed extra points and several of my losses were similar to last night, just missed FG's and narrow margins. Only only had my ass handed to me once or twice. I believe I'm 5 for 6 on underdog picks this year. Only whiff being Miss. St v LsU.
