My picks for yesterday’s games, went 4 for 5 on my parlay, Cincinnati won but didn’t cover the spread. Funny, I guess William Hill didn’t get the memo that it’s now Ocean Casino Resort. Anyone cash a ticket?
For me the big one was Northwestern vs UMass. The irresistible force (UMass D) met the immovable object (Northwestern offense). I had been betting UMass overs every week and did well. This would be their toughest test. Line was NW -41 with the over/under 56. Went big on UMass and under and won. 45-6 final. Other lead bet was Baylor 10.5. Knew that was just too much. Line should've been 6. Bad beat was not getting a push on Minn/Iowa. Disappointment was Arizona playing a little bit of defense.
2 for me today. I didn't do enough on Baylor +10.5 last week and regretted it. Not doing that this week. Arizona Sate +14. Herm won't let them lose by that much, he'll give an all-time pep talk. Also USC UCLA under. It keeps going up. I think they'll play a little defense in this.
The Akron Zips are 0-11 this year after the loss to Miami of Ohio, but I heard it was their first “win” against the spread. Imagine being 0-10 against the spread!
I won my 3 team parlay. Had OSU -5.5, BYU/Massachusetts over 69 and Michigan State/Rutgers under 43.5 Ernie
