Texas A&M -7 (-101)
Utah St pk
2 units each
Skipping the SCRF system plays cause I don't like the current lines.
May have another regular play or two later though.

just play 'em stiffy (lol...having said that i am sure they will spiral wildly out of control in losses).......they were 2-1 tonight.....they are 99 percent of the time sucker lines. i mean here is a quesiton...all these posts i saw with people on Marist today saying how bad Rider was and how bad they sucked, and they just lost to Iona by DD. Well, wouldn't you find it a little puzzling that the line was only -3 for Marist then? I mean i don't think the books would put out a line where they would take it in the shorts. I will play them blind 'til the cows come home and i really don't understand people who bet against these plays. It isn't a system based on stats or strength of schedule or anything, it's basically based on the oddsmakers opinion of the game and what he thinks the public will do, and there isn't a guy in this forum or any other forum who knows more than the oddsmakers so i will back them.
looks like you had a great call on AM tonight......i thought Texas was the side, but apparently i was wrong, wrong, wrong....

Well, it wasn't the actual lines I didn't like, but rather the movements. I felt that I lost part of the line advantage already built into these lines.
You won't find a bigger supporter than myself of backing the oddsmakers opinions over the public's, this forum's, any other forum's, or whoever's opinion.
However, I also know alot of those SCRF system games come down to being pretty close to the line. I would have gotten GA Southern +4.5, Wofford +2 and Rider +3, each one a full point (1.5 points for GA Southern) down from the opener....and I just didn't wanna take the chance of having one lose that would have won at the opener. Normally these lines move in my favor, and more than once I've won by a half point when those unfortunate souls who had the opener lost.
I don't know, i'm babbling....and I probably should have just played em.
As for the A&M game, if aTm wasn't facing 5 Longhorns and 3 refs, this would be over already. aTm would be up 25+ easily....but most of their guys are in foul trouble and sitting on the pine, and Texas has been handed nothing but free points from the line since forever now. What's funny is that Texas won't win this game SU, even with the refs holding their hands. After Durant, the talent on these teams isn't even comparable....and if the refs perk up in the 2nd half and call it fair, aTm will run away with this.

LMFAO, the big white guy with the long last name for aTm gets fouled on the way up, no call, gets punched in the face during the rebound, no call...and then gets called for a foul for bumping into the Texas dude running down the court.
And Dickie V and his sidekick act like it's not even going on
Gotta keep these TV games close, ya know....or folks would turn it off.
This is the most rediculous officiating i've seen in a long long time, and I watch the NFL every weekend, so that's saying something

Loyola Marymount ML +560
1/2 unit
This is just a small hedge play for insurance in case St Mary's wins, but Gonzaga loses.
If St Mary's loses, it's only a measly extra half unit anyway.

I wanted to play Loyola Mary but shyed away, figures.

LOL, i really only played it as a potential hedge of my parlay, in case St Mary's came back to win, in which case guaranteeing about a 2 unit profit either way, which was my plan the entire time....so i just went ahead with it cause the St Mary's game was 62-62 when I did it, and could have gone either way...so i figured what's another measly half unit if it loses?
In no way did i predict Loyola Marymount would pull the upset, but on the other hand, nor did i like Gonzaga. I had no real opinion on that game, but like I said, was using it to get better parlay odds and was going to hedge it out for a guaranteed profit if the parlay got to that point.
In reality, i was really lucky it turned out the way it did....although even at a half unit, rooting for a +560 dog to win outright and having it happen was pretty exciting :yeah:
