And thank God, too.  If I listened to the non-gambler Kid I would have lost my house.
Unless you took Louisville and the points.

Now why would I have done that?  He told us all to take Notre Dame and give the points.

SEC SOS took a big hit Saturday.  Four upset losses and an Arkansas squeak-by an FCS Portland State.
The league only plays 8 conference games and still has plenty patsies on its remaining non-conference lineup:
Charleston Southern,NewMexico State,Murray State,Tulane, UT Martin,Chattanooga,Southeastern Louisiana,Arkansas State,
LaMar,Northwestern State,  Southeast Missouri State, Troy, UTSA, Western Carolina, Samford, Abilene Christian, and East Tennessee State,

Which means a lot of pressure is on LSU this week at Texas, and Texas A and M at Clemson.

Otherwise it will be another battle between Alabama and Georgia but only the Champ will make the playoff.


The Big Ten Champ and other champs could all be two game losers.(With the probable exception of Clemson) One of the two SEC teams you so erringly leave out could only have 'one' loss.
It’s week one and the SEC is in a hole based on SOS.
Good luck on your week 14 hopes.

You're the one that projected to the playoffs after week one and declared the SEC wasn't going to get two teams in. Not me. I just pointed out your homeriffic usual bias.

You should pay attention to what I wrote.


You should try to understand what you wrote.

Maybe then you'd stop looking so fracking stupid.

Northwestern plays defense.

Teams that don't play offense....

No. Stanford just played 'better' defense.
Boise State played "better" offense.

One sided teams fly as far.as one winged birds.

Actually I thought it was a case of a good defense being poorly conditioned. The Nole defense was clearly gassed in the second half. Maybe you watched a different game?

Why does somebody who "rarely" bets on sports continue to discuss gambling?


Maybe he's trying to learn from his betters. Help the guy out dude. ;-)


I was on the road but if I'd seen his post I would have probably taken Ville and the points.

I lost my house once. I was walking home(apartment actually but the theory still applies) I was incredibly blitzed. I had lived in three different apartments in a ten block radius from age 18 and couldn't remember which one of them was my current residence. Sat on the street curb for about an hour before I sobered up enough to realize which one I lived in.

His post read
Notre Dame -18.5

It could be read that he was betting on Notre Dame but it never advised anyone else to do the same.

No Bro you're right, I would have taken it to mean take ND and give the points too. And by default he was advising you to do the same. Most anyone would have.

I'm just wondering why you're so pissed at him. It's not like he is a total dumb ass like Ol Skippy. And thus he gets on your last good nerve constantly. But then I suppose you have other good reasons to be annoyed with him.

Massey has some big movers in his ratings.

The biggest of note is USC hopping up a whopping 26 slots.

Stanford up 10 after polishing off mighty Northwestern.


The Cavs up 17.


SMU up 26.


Mizzou drops 21 and South Caro 24. Tenn down 36.

I saw the game where a team scored 31 first half points and 0 second half points.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

I take it the USC is Southern California? Did Massey only watch the first quarter?

Daniels is out for the season. But I am sure SC will "FIHT ON".

I saw a game where a defense couldn't hold an 18 point lead.

I'll add I saw not only a gassed defense but a gassed offense too. Sometimes the oversized beef dehydrates faster than the lighter kind. Sometimes one team is simply in better shape.
