    Va Tech -13 over 56
    Ohio -16 over 45.5

    Thoughts? Pretty sure I'll be on Ga Tech but waiting to see what the line does.

    Just started looking at this line. What about the Oklahoma Texas A&M game? OK -3? Seems low

    Landry Jones doesn't know how to play on the road. I wouldn't trust them to win that game.

    Im probably taking Georgia Tech but they have looked absolutely horrible everytime I've seen them this year.

    I am so sick of Landry. Ou "should" win this game easily, but we will prob get beat bc they are fucking pussies on the road. Plus, a&m started a new qb last week and threw for a massive amount of yards. This is a trap bet. A&m or nothing is the play imo

    Just looked at weather reports.

    Nothing alarming

    Athens, Ohio

    5-10 mph winds. 40% chance of rain but doesn't sound too heavy

    Blacksburg

    5-10 mph winds, cloudy.

    I got no clue. Looking for anything to lead me 1 way or the other and can't find it.

    I've done really well on MAC games this year but terrible in games involving Buffalo so I'm going to do my best to try to avoid that shit show.

    Take VT at home on Thurs night. They'll win this by 17+

    They are flat out terrible against the run. I have no doubt that they'll win but anything over 14 is not a smart play imo.

    Right now I think I've decided that it's a no play for me at the current # but if Ga Tech gets to 14 I'll take those points.

    It's tough. It's a game that *should* go over but based on the fact that the clock will be running a lot with all the running plays in this game it's tough to pull the trigger on.

    Plus Va Tech is the type of team that will take the air out of the ball in the 2nd half if they are up big so there's that risk too. Could easily be the kinda game where it's 24-7 at the half and you are feeling good and then all of a sudden it's 34-10 with 5:00 left and you don't understand what happened.

    Gotta go with VT -13. Square play but VT is a different animal on Thursday nights in Blacksburg (17-5 ATS in their last 22 Thursday games). They win this game and they likely take the division. I also never bet against a home team on a thursday night.

    I wouldn't play it at 14.5, but I like 13.

    Aero, I figured this would one of your classic "bet the under and try and hit the middle on the over in the 2nd half" games. Thats what Im doing anyways.

    I played VT -7 and over 28 first half for 1.65 each.
    Trail Blazers/Thunder over 194 1.65
    over 22.5 first half Ohio game 1.65

    Over night.

    We played VT at home on Thursday last year (and somehow won), but if you guys get a chance to see the players coming onto the field before the game, it is a sight to behold. They were playing Enter Sandman and EVERYBODY was jumping and screaming. I click the rewind button so my wife could come see it. It was awesome to watch.

    This clip doesn't do it justice.

    Usually I bet 2 units on these weekday games just to make it interesting but tonight I'm going to mix it up with 1 unit each on Buffalo +16.5, Buffalo/Ohio under 48, and Georgia Tech +14. At the very least all those points on my side should keep me interested through the 1st half.

    Man o man. Wouldn't have thought VT would be this flat at home on a Thursday night. They are going to struggle to even beat a GT team without Nesbitt :facepalm:

    Oh good I just lost both bets in the Ohio game because retarded Frank Solich calls a fucking fade into the end zone on 4th and inches when he should be kicking a FG. Despite the terrible call and the fact that the WR wasn't open it somehow results in a TD and my night being ruined.
