It has been a fun season, to say the least. When your team is relevant, the season goes
by a LOT FASTER than when you suck…So sparty and the domers had a nice, long
enjoyable Fall of 2016…No pun intended!
In the coaching carousel, Oregon surprised me (a little)
and dumped Helfrich, a Chip Kelly disciple and will be searching for a new head
coach for the first time in 40 some years (that didn’t come from within the
ranks). That surprised me. That and the fact that Helfrich will get $11M
in his buyout this year and if Oregon would have waited until after next
season, they would have only paid $3.5M.
But when you have Phil Knight lining your pockets, money for coaches is no
object. The question still remains – who
are they gonna’ get?
The
FMQ
The
Championships!
Last week wasn’t terrible, but Michigan and osu getting to
the OVER kind of screwed me. That parlay
would have been nice. The results:
So, on to the Championships!
Friday!
Washington
vs. Colorado (+7.5)
This game is a tuffy.
I like Washington and have seen them play, but I also know that Colorado
is playing at the top of it’s game, also.
I think Colorado may have had a slightly easier schedule coming down the
stretch, however. But does that mean
they can’t keep it close against the Huskies?
Take Colorado
and the 7.5 for $40
SATURDAY!!!!
Florida
vs. Alamaba (-24)
Strangely, I had this spread at about 4 TD’s based on
Florida’s average PPG and Bama’s average PPG.
Vegas thinks (I guess) that Gatorland’s defense might be able to contain
Bama’s offense? But what about Bama
scoring on Defense? I may have to do
something I hate to do and lay big points in what I see ending up as a big
blowout….
Take Bama
and lay the 24 for $20
Clemson
vs Va Tech (+10)
Va Tech is playing REALLY GOOD FOOTBALL right now and the
evidence was there when they destroyed a pretty good Virginia team last
week. 10 points seems like a gift in
this one and I can’t ignore it.
Take Virginia
Tech and the 10 for $40
Row
the Boat vs. ohio (+18)
In what will be PJ Fleck’s penultimate game on Saturday, I
don’t see the Broncos getting wet vs the pesky ohio Bobcats. Fleck is going to finish the regular season
with a flourish and coach a football game on New Year’s Day down in Dallas….
Take the
Broncos and lay the 18 for $75
Wiscy
vs PSU (-2.5)
So, here we have two teams that Michigan and the suckeye
are 3-1 against. Yet, somehow, both
these clowns are in the title game. This
irks the ever living shit out of me and somehow, I just can’t seem to wrap my
mind around the fact that Michigan was one first down (in two different games)
away from being in this game. That being
said, and the way one team is trending,
Take PSU
and the 2.5 for $30
Parlay!
Parlays
pay 6-1
Va
Tech – Bama - Western: $20

Tech – Western – PSU: $20

So, I fully understand that there is absolutely no actual cause and effect here, BUT, I predict that VT will lay an egg against Clemson; just to further frustrate M fans. You see, VT just beat our hapless, lazy hoopsters at Crisler, despite not taking their first lead until less than 3 minutes in the game. Thus, VT will do further damage to us, this time by losing to Clemson.
BTW, thanks for no adjustments and not much moving without the ball; pathetic and embarrassing effort on our home court. Of course the crowd sucked as well, so a poor effort all around:(
On a different note, in addition to referring to osu as ohio, I propose a new name for the snake-pit (AKA, the whore'shoe), in columbus.
Whores show it is!!!
