A 71 yard pick 6 and TD receptions of 74 and 83.

Ridiculous.

You're actually not looking that bad anymore. Both teams are struggling to move the ball a little bit. If FIU doesn't get the ball to this T.Y. Hilton guy, they pretty much just stall.

I missed the first half, I've watched the whole 3rd quarter. Louisville's secondary is lost with this guy. They have to be doubling him. Nobody else has beaten them and FIU hasn't had a run over 8 yards.

Without the pick 6, I'd be in decent shape. I'm really sweating this game now. Keep running.

Louisville's coverage on Hilton was baffling in the first half, to say the least. He's literally the only player on FIU that can hurt them, and at one point (after he already had a 70-some yard touchdown), they had him single-covered by a LINEBACKER with little to no safety help, and he burned the guy up the middle for an 80-some yard TD.

Meanwhile, cameras go to L'Ville coaches who are doing a mixture of these....

[Skating Tripods]

Hate that pass interference call. WR stopped and that ball became uncatchable.

Need someone for FIU to rip the ball out.

Alright I'll threw these three in a parlay so people can bet against all three.
Mizzou + 9.5 / Arizona St ML -350 / Under 52 GL

I think I misread this, cuz I thought u said u parleyed those 3 games.. an I was like, what book, on what universe, would allow that.. then I reread it and am only slightly confused now.

Would I be correct in saying you're not actually betting real money on these?

Yep. Its a bodog $12.00 shitty friday night parlay special. Its now Mizzou +10.

[Skating Tripods]

This FIU team is really impressing me. I know Louisville's not exactly the class of the Big East, but they're physical, athletic, and play with a lot of fire.

They get Troy at home for the Sun Belt title too.

And just trying to get rep back to even with one bet. Love AZ St this year but Mizzou covers the 10 and I think the game BARELY sneaks under

BoDog allows you to parley a same game Dog ATS & the ML Favorite on the same ticket? Really?? This is unheard of at Pinnacle, and I'll be honest, didn't know this was possible anywhere..

Today's Best Bet
WNBA - Phoenix Mercury +6

Why? This game against Seattle will determine which of these teams will have the home court advantage in their opening round playoff series. Seattle is coming off an upset win as a underdog, and has won 6 of 7 overall. Phoenix has won 4 of 5, and knows the importance of this game. Seattle is getting all of the betting love as they are at home and are expected to win. But, do they cover, I say no. Phoenix is as hungry of a dog you will ever find. Give me a dog who will play all out until the final buzzer.

I agree, and I'm starting to think their coach will be getting a call from a larger school in the near future. Has taken that program from jack-squat (0-12 in 2006) to Sun Belt champs last year and now this. VERY impressive.

Bowl win over Toledo too.

Yep, he'll be getting a call at some point. Maybe step in to C-USA or a lower-tier ACC school coaching job.

Thanks. Had to sweat it, though.

[Beyond the Bets]

Just passing the time until the big Utah game tomorrow.

Mizzou +10. I'll put two rep points at stake.

[Skating Tripods]

Got Mizzou +10 also. Wouldn't call it my best bet, that already hit, but I took them because I like getting two scores with an experienced senior kicker in a game that should be fairly low scoring. Y'know, if Mizzou's D would cooperate.

Does James Franklin look like a different player or what? Impressive drive for him.

Maybe because its one of their "Bet Live" games? Im not sure. Tried doing it for another game and not allowed.

Well, second-half line is Mizzou +4, so it works out the exact same. It is at +105 money though if anyone wants to get in on it. Not sure how i feel about that first half. I thought the mizzou D really started to look better after they took the initial blow. The offense looks better but still not completely comfortable.

[ChiefZilla]

Wow, trick play gives ASU a 7-point lead, then a bogus pass interference call gives them a two-touchdown lead. This one hurts right now...

Muffed punt! I'm the only one on this board who cares!!!!

[patrickjbyrne]

I haven't been keeping up with this so if we're only allowed one play my bad. I'll throw out 3 and if I'm up I'll take the point. Soccer plays before 11am CST football.

Chelsea -.5 -148
Man City/Wigan over 3 I took at -125 now -141
Livepool/Stoke draw +242

[Black Mamba]

South Carolina -3

yeaup, I know, they suckered me in with this one, I hate to be on public games like this, just can't look away for some reason (like an ugly car wreck), I know who the winning team SHOULD be.

FWIW, also on Utah, ND, Toledo and AFA today. Got them earlier in the week, so better numbers than what's available right now, but I'd still take them today.

Toledo scares me more than earlier in the week, but that's because I heard a Toledo beat writer this morning say Toledo will keep it close for half, but OSU will cover easily in the 2H
