Playing College Football 2005 – 2006
A few Tips for the more inexperienced players:
1) Never lose sight of the importance of ½ point …. In all sports.
2) Always Shop Vigorously for the best lines.
3) If you use locals , ALWAYS NEGOTIATE YOUR DEAL WITH THEM in a cordial but businesslike manner. You’ll be surprised at the perks that will be awarded to you if only you speak up for yourselves. One of the most important perks in my standard deal is that I always get ½ point … no questions asked … for ALL sports. But in all fairness … mention that you will be willing not be allowed to come off the number 3 in football … that number is too huge and it will show your local that you are fair in your negotiation. ( Tip #3 helps you get well on your way to accomplishing #’s 1 and 2 ) Good Luck to all with your respective deals.
The Plays for Week 4 :
Side Plays:
Top Play : Hawaii +2 over Idaho
Regular: Minnesota -3 over Purdue
Regular: Oregon +21 over USC … look for The Ducks to keep it respectable.
Regular : Michigan - 2 over Wisconsin … now that everybody knows that the Wolverines are 1-15 ATS the first time they are installed as a road fave each year. How could Michigan possibly be favored in this game ? I’ll trust the lines maker ( with very few exceptions I almost always do )
