I'm an ultra-square today and I don't care. If the Colts keep this one close or win, hats off to them and the sharps who bet them.

Falcons -6.5 at Indy.

Falcons -6.5

I hope the sharps continue their love affair with the Colts and keep driving the lines down. I don't get it. What do they see?

Impressive!! Now we're cooking! A 97-76 (56%) run over the past month has turned things around here, great to see!

Great job done by louie so far with his 12-2 record.

Standings are listed in order of total units won, based on lines of -110. Obviously, the lines range much higher and lower than -110, but since people usually don't list odds associated with their pick (which makes me wonder if they're actually wagering on the pick they're giving..) there's no way of telling true odds.

Rep Points need to be updated as follows. Please finish these off BTB, thank you.

+3 Chiefzilla (+1 for a pick, and please add +2 for helping with the rep pt updates the past while, which was such a huge help, you have no idea. Thank you to the others who also helped with a few.)
+3 Mr Lucky
+2 Black Mamba
+2 jimmysingh9
+1 oddsok
+1 VTSkins
+1 Spburn2
+1 The Posse

-1 thekidrounder (you were owed a point which was missed earlier for +1, then lost on Bama & SD for -2)
-2 40forty13

In the future, I will be keeping the Standings updated more regularly. I apologize for the lengthy delay between the last update and now. I hadn't had much extra time last month.

Good Luck moving forward, and remember, we're looking for Best Bets only!

Great stuff Mr Lucky! Appreciate the hard work

Awesome work, Lucky. (And thanks for the shout-out on rep points. )

Tonight I'll go with Williams & Mary +8 at St. John's.

As a CAA alum (ODU), I approve.

Like I said in the Week 9 thread, Bears +8.5 is one of my favorite plays this week. I think it will climb half a point to a full point. I also like Bears/Eagles under 47.5.

Hopefully I don't swing and miss on both.

[kreatture]

Posse, are you playing these as official Best Bets, or do you just like them?

Just wanted to make sure for when I go through and update things again. Thanks

[Black Mamba]

Saturday: Rice Owls +15.5

I meant them both to be official. Too bad the total already crossed the over. Hoping the Bears keep up the cover so I don't strike out.

[louiemdj]

Miami, OH +13

[twise]

Miami (OH) at Temple over 44

[The Posse]

Raiders/Chargers over 48.

[twise]

Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech under 50

[zman1415]

Ohio -6.5 (got it yesterday, but if that's not legit I suppose i take it at -7)

Odds should be listed at what they currently are as of time of posting, so others can bet the same line, if they choose to tail.

If you believe -6.5 is the best line to bet, then you could always list it as -6.5 (-132) which is the current line at Pinnacle. Good Luck tonight.

I'll have a big Teaser play shortly..

[HokiePokie]

Houston vs. Tulane UNDER 77.5
