Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Looks like the opening lines have Cal favored by 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 points

    My site moved to UW +2.5 (at -105) so I decided to buy a half point and get 3 total:

    STRAIGHT WAGER 10/06/14 16:33 EDT
    Bet $ 500.00 to win $ 400.00 Result: Pending
    Washington U vs California 10/11/14 18:00 EDT Washington U +3 (-125) Bought 0.5 point(s)

    I was not Sarkastic at all.** I used to gamble for a living. You are the only one I've seen on these here boreds that evaluate lines, spreads, and games unemotionally, as they should be, appropriately considered and weighted in the fluctuating odds markets and the emotional money that drives them. I expect you consistently make money, year over year, betting on CFB - if not other sports as well.



    ps. sports betting is like driving a car and fucking - everybody thinks they are better than they actually are ...

    I also love that we are one of the best in the nation at a turnover margin of +11 vs. Cal which is below average (at 0). Cal also gets more penalties per game than UW.

    Doogin it up pretty good on this thread.

    First the list of potential 1st or 2nd rounders (classic doogology) and now the turnover margin against UH,ewu,gsu and the illini.

    lol

    Disagree.

    TCU is now +8.5 vs. opening at +10.5

    Thanks for weighing in. I'm always worried that I'll start thinking I lose because of bad luck and win because I'm smart. I've also already erred in that I bet at 2.5 and bought a half point when now it's at 3.5 on my site.

    Betting on the Huskies as a road dog or on the road in general infrequently paid under Sloppy Steve because he was so bad away from Husky Stadium (Boston College this year was typical for him) but Petersen's high level of competency changes things.

    What do you think of 3.5 spread and what are your thoughts on Miles? Oddshark.com has the O/U at 71.5 so it looks like bettors are currently predicting Cal to win 37 or 38 to 34.

    And what do people think about Auburn being -3 @ Miss State? I'm tempted to take Auburn and Gus Malzahn, especially since Miss State's win over a rebuilding TAMU team may be getting over-hyped. Thinking about taking UW + 3.5 and Auburn -3 in a parlay. Or UW money line and Auburn money when they come out.

    I like Auburn in that one. Please don't send crowbar carrying wise guys to my mom's basement if I'm wrong.

    Honestly, I'm the probably wrong guy to ask b/c I'm dooging it up hard on this game. I expect UW to win outright so any points conceded is gravy, insurance IMO.

    Also, I'm not good at predicting the o/u so I stay away from those wagers unless i'm supremely confident the line is wrong.

    Miles to me is an enigma. He looked so good with a quality RB last year, and I feel like the change of systems has gotten to his head. He is thinking way too much to allow his natural gifts to flourish. It is also quite possible to be Centenial, CO's version of Ryan Leaf. I need to LIPO a bit more before making a final determination.

    If you're offering 24 points ... I'll let you set the price. Any price you want.
