Every year about this time I wish that I had bought a bunch of Phil Steele mags a month ago and studied up to take advantage of the first two weeks.
Okie State -18
Notre Dame -17.5
Vandy -3.5
LSU - 14.5
Live chalk the first couple weeks before Vegas figures shit out.

Hate to say it, but my first take is that Southern Miss +10 looks pretty attractive. Just think UK will not be hitting on all cylinders especially on offense right out of the gate. MIght even lose again. (GOD, I HATE MYSELF!! 
)
I also would not be surprised if Florida State gives Bama all they want and maybe even wins outright. Not often you can get a no. 2 or 3 ranked FSU +7 or so.

In a pickem league. Ohio st -20.5 @ IU. IU old HC is now Ohio st OC. Last game OSU played, lost 41-0 vs Clemson. Pissed off all summer. OSU very good dline. IU has covered 6 straight vs OSU. Return 9 starters on D. Game is at home, Thursday night. Ive gone back and forth at least 6 times.
Vandy -3.5 AppSt+14.5 Maryland+18.5

I did not. I did however bet more than normal on Okie State. Absolute easy money. They are a really nice team and would not be shocked to see them in the playoffs. I think they beat Oklahoma.
Wanted to play Ohio State -20.5, but felt so good about the OK St game. I did not want to lose too much on opening night, especially betting what i did on the game.

3-0 start to season.
Ok St 1H -10 (this line was a joke)
Ohio St -20
Ohio St 2H O27.5
Tried to get in a halftime bet for Ok St., but system jammed on me. I haven't had a winning season in CFB in years, so at least I didn't start in the hole...then again, it's not Saturday yet.
-I'm also in a Pick'em league for the 1st time, got around 100 dudes -- Pick 3 lines per week, standard stuff. Set Lines come out Monday on the email, and picks are due Wednesday...so there are chances for value after movement.
This week I have:
Ok St -16.5
Colorado St. +4.5
Purdue +26.5

Leans tonight - have not pulled the trigger yet.
E. Michigan -14 v/s Charlotte. More of a fade of Charlotte, they are awful.
Colorado St. +3.5 v/s Colorado - may even dab at the ML. C-State is the better team.
Whiskey -27.5 v/s Utah State - Kind of like last nights games, really good teams against bad ones. 27.5 at home, sounds good.

Not a bad night. 2-1 on posted plays. Lost the Colorado St game, sweated out the E. Michigan but won. Did hit Whiskey for second half, but i did not post that so not counting it.
3-1 so far.
Ok St. -18 (thur) W
E. Mich -14 W
Co. St. +3.5 L
Wiskey -27.5 W
Have ND , Vandy, And LSU today.

SMiss +10 was a gift and they could have won easily were it not for their own self destruction...or by choosing the wrong QB to start the game. Awful performance from both teams.
And naturally, I did not bet the game nor did I bet on the O/U of 58 which was also a gift.
7/8 on the days parlay. Paid out $9k. I will hate mark stoops and myself for most of the day today.
That Wisconsin halftime bet of -14 was easy money. The tide was obviously turning before half and they ended up covering for the whole game in the second half.
Nice little start. 3-0 saturday and none of them was ever challenged.
6-1 on posted bets. 7-1 total. Not betting tonight's game, my bookie is not getting a chance to get some back.
Ok St. -18.5 W
E. Mich -14 W
Col St. +3.5 L
Wiskey -27.5 W
NDame -17.5 W
Vandy -3.5 W
LSU -14.5 W
Only L was taking points. Definitely a chalk week for me. Usually is the 1st couple weeks.

Touch it, i am a degenerate. $50 on UT -3. Smaller than normal play, because i just did it for action and to make the game more watchable.
Well it did not take long for the thread to fade into irrelevance. No post since Monday. I will try to keep it alive.
7-2 YTD
Texas -25 - Just feel San Jose State is really bad and Texas has the horses to out run them.
Arkansas +2.5 - not real strong on this one, but SEC team getting points at home.
UCLA -23 - The rally last week will spark them and they roll. Hawaii gave up 35 v/s UMASS, Rosen may drop 80 on them.
South Carolina +3 - think wrong team is favored. ML possible.
Miss State -9.5 - under double digits and they play La.Tech. Yes please.

I hah
South Carolina to win
Parlay: south car to win and Uga to win
Felt very strongly about those
And then I stupidly had
South car Win
Uga win
UCLA to cover
And western freaking Kentucky to cover
And they havnt even scored
I don't know why I picked that game, I felt very confident in my other picks and also very confident in Alabama to not cover. Should have added them

Krazy says kaits could be opening up 2 point favorite against Carolina on the road. Keep an eye on that.
We will see. I could see it betting wise as a trap line. Legit USC should be the favorite, but that's what trap lines are about.
Technically by the numbers we have a higher rank than USC. We started the day higher and beating EKU and Missouri isn't going to make much of a difference either way.
As I said it won't be much of a line at all.

I don't touch anything for a few weeks really. A lot of people tend to think early is the only time to beat Vegas and I disagree.
Of course I'm not trying to beat Vegas just a few spreads a week!
If I was picking today the only games I'd like are Houston -5 and Cinci -3

USC -5 with us predicted to not only cover but win by a TD.

So you you predicted us to be favored by Vegas and we opened at 5 point dogs, correct?
Baha alright man. The only thing I took exception with (and others) was that you could see UK opening as favorites. That's idiotic.
So I'm an idiot for thinking a line could be U.K. -2, when oddsshark has them winning by a TD?
I mean I get it because it's a road SEC game, but when you look at the stats, rankings and game predictions where we are considered to win the game.
I am an idiot though so kudos to you man!

Another great week 5-1 (12-3 overall for 1st two weeks.)
Texas -25 - won 56-0.
UCLA -23 - won 56-23
SC +3 - won 31-13 out right
SC Money line
Miss ST -9.5 won 57-21
Arkansas +2.5 LOST 28-7
None of the wins where ever in doubt. Now i am waiting for the Gambling Gods to unleash its wrath on me (not if, but when), but going to ride this wave until it crashes.

Nice week.
I also had a decent week with one pick pending
Sc money line
UCLA- what a gift that was
Georgia money line
Lost on wku
Shit the bed on Alabama failing to cover. I knew they wouldn't cover 45 against 99% of teams. Not because they can't, but saban.
Dallas -6.5 win
Denver +.5 second half.
