today:

its an obscure game but cal state sacramento at weber st is a pick em right now...sacramento has been on a roll lately and weber state is pretty bad

loyola md is +4 against a 4-9 niagra team...seems like an unbelievable sucker bet but why not take it

skins plus the 9.5 is golden too...seattle doesnt blow out good teams

I put $$ on the under in Seattle-Washington.

Put $$ on LSU to cover 6 against Tennessee.

But also placed $$ on NE.

Fortunately, I just came in 3rd in a 20$ 1540 person PartyPoker tournament and pulled in 2500, so for the night, I'll take it.

that seattle taterskin under was a great bet...i almost grabbed that myself but already had my three 'locks'...which i hit two of...so i cant be mad

sac state and loyola both hit for me...if you really study small college basketball it can win you nice cake.

I'm not a real big College BB fan so they only time I'm in the money are when the tourney cranks up.

I actually won the most money by betting baseball this year.

ice grillin you · January 15, 2006, 10:17:53 AM

im math retarded and cant understand the baseball odds no matter how many times they are explained to me...so i dont bet it

you dont even have to know that much about college basketball to hit the small school bets...just study the records and stats...ive found out that many of them will look like sucker bets...where if it was two more well known teams you wouldnt touch it because of that...but with these teams it seems like a sucker bet but they stay true to what it looks like

both games i hit last night were teams way over .500 vs teams well under .500...one game was a pick em and in the other game a 10-3 team was getting points vs a 4-9 team

granted i know a lot about loyola because they are local...so i know they got two transfers from umd who are far and away the best players in the conference..but in general if you have the time one night take a look at some of those type games

ice grillin you · January 18, 2006, 09:26:28 AM

ok we got some good small college plays tonight

akron -13 @ cent. mich: blowout in the making....akron usually covers fairly easily

drake -3 @ indiana St: drake already beat IS this year...and IS's star player just got hurt.

manhattan +3.5 @ Marist: manhattan is the class of the conference...marist has pulled off some good wins lately and that scares me but i dont think theyre ready for manhattan

MURP · January 18, 2006, 10:47:10 AM

you must love college basketball to follow those teams IGY.

rjs246 · January 18, 2006, 10:50:14 AM

ice grillin you · January 18, 2006, 10:50:31 AM

Listen to this: for fun last night my buddy and I decide to put together a TEN team parlay for 5$ that pays almost 1500.

I bet:

Temple +1.5

UCLA -7

Pitt -3

Southern Miss +16.5

U of Miami -4.5

LSU -5.5

Rhode Island +4

Detroit Red Wings to win

Pistons -9.5

AND....
Memphis Grizzlies -3

Was only doing it for kicks anyway, but I was 8/8 while Memphis entered the 4th quarter tied, and they couldn't pull it out.
