Do you only bet 10 points or greater favorites to cover? There may be faster ways to the poorhouse but I don't know any.
There’s no poorhouse B except for those who don’t do their homework! These 5 picks are decent ... The 6th pick takes the points! Gotta watch the races B ... That’s the polls and the players ... Notice who I bet on ... You won’t find me betting on a TCU game against “St Elmer’s” (that was funny) unless I get an inside tip that a game’s on the fix. I’m 4 of 5 last week in these “Other Picks” ... A smart guy could easily clean up given picks at 80% ATS ... Let’s see how I do this week ... I’ll only lay down a grand on these picks nothin big ... But my big $$$ goes to my locks where I’m 4-0 ... Betting 3 times with LSU and 1 time against LSU with those 52 points vs NW ... B that was a close one Kitty is $49K now and we bet big next week after watching Utah St game tomorrow 6:30 Unless I see something highly unusual with Utah State or a GameDay Monsoon coming Ramah predicts ... Lock #5 ... LSU -24 to -28 or so vs Utah State ... I’ll hit that big for about $6K or so depending on the line ... and I’ll win B, you know why?
I’ll snag a can of pipeline steaks now and then (Sam’s case of 18 lasts my gal’s son a month) but that potted meat is some evil crap and I won’t let him eat it ... When I was young we were poor and they still wouldn’t let me eat all those preservatives ... Good luck with your picks today if you’re doing the casino ... I’m in Biloxi by about 1PM for those 2:30 kickoffs (2) and hanging out until 9:30 to collect after Auburn & OSU Ended up missing the Wisconsin brouhaha but you can’t catch em all ... Too much fun last night Geaux Tigers ...

Bama wasn’t a lock ... I had no locks But it was my #1 pick ... Bama could have covered that spread easy ... With 8:00 left they could have scored again easily ... Saban coasted like he did vs Muschamp ... Really thought he’d punish Ole Miss late ... Guess he thought twice after those Bama injuries ... Those Vandy 24 points not looking so bad now huh Looks like I’m 4/6 this week ... Added to 4/5 last week Total 8/11 other picks = 73% ATS
