Good for you then. But just one question, how can you pick CU AND the points when OU was favored to win? It seems to me that if you just picked CU for the win, you win, right? If you picked OU and the points, you are saying that OU wins and also covers the spread. But you can't pick CU and the points if CU was not favored to win.

I am not a gambler, so I'm really not sure.
I'm just asking...

Oh, and I never discounted CO. They are down, but Boulder is ALWAYS a tough place to go into and win. I remember the 2003 game. The score was 34-20 OU. But the game was alot closer than the score indicates. CU threatened to tie the game, but OU scored in the last drive to seal the win. It was close. It really doesn't surprise me that much that CO beat us in Boulder.

Yes I took CU AND the points meaning OU had to win by 24 points or I win the bet.

Granted UT looks terrible, that won't stop me from driving up to Dallas this weekend. On a side note, at the KSU game I touched Vince Young. Yup. My hand still smells like Roses.


It's 6:38 and Oklahoma still sucks.

Im not saying it's not, just wondering. Do you know by chance? As far as betting weeks in advance, what ij major injuries occur? What if Fran is fired and we get some interm coach. Those are just a few of the reasons I am not gonna place bets on games weeks in advance. But I will go one week at a time. How about this week, heads up.

Tell you what Sprayed, I'll bet you heads up this week and I'll take OSU (no point spread either way), if next week we bet heads up and I'll take Tech. $20 each bet. There is no point in paying each week, we can settle up at the end of the year.

I'll bet every game against the spread. If there are major injuries or a coaching change thats what the line is for and it is adjusted accordingly. So this week I'll take OSU and the 6 or 7 points or whatever it is at kickoff according to www.sportsbook.com. If you want to do this just post up in this thread before kickoff and like MMILLER said we can settle up at the end of the year or on a weekly basis I don't really care.

Sprayed, here's my offer on a bet with you for the OSU game. I'll take OSU +7 for $20. Take it or leave it.
