    I assumed most everybody who posted in this thread was doing the online thing. Maybe I was wrong? I used to get to Reno and Vegas a few times each year, the online thing allows me to save money on those trips and place bets any day of the year.

    Not sure what others do. My bookie is online. Best of both worlds

    Really hoping the line tonight gets up to 3. I think LSU wins again. I'm checking out the props now. Will post my plays shortly

    Like Fixer, I deal with the old neighborhood bookie, but now online instead of using the phone. I think its the way a lot of bookmakers have gone now.

    And I'm a bit surprised Bama has suddenly emerged as a favorite tonight.

    Props aren't super enticing, much more fun looking at props for an offensive type game than this one.
    One that does look good is AJ McCarron -45.5 passing yds over Jordan Jefferson...McCarron outpassed him 199 yds to 67 in the first meeting, Jefferson has thrown for over 100 yds only twice this season, against Arkansas and Western KY jelly.

    I like the over tonight (don't think I'm going to bet it, but I think both teams end up in the 20's). I see your point though.

    richardson is +140 to score a TD in both first and secod halves. I think that almost looks too easy.

    The line I will be watching is NO/SF. I could see that getting up around 6. I like SF in that one...brees chicken arm usually doesn't do so well outdoors. Hopefully it will be windy in the Bay Area

    I think the time to grab NYG is now, they are always a popular play in Vegas and I can see that line dropping from 9 to 7.5 (but not to 7), and I think the public currently loves the Saints and knows little about the current version of the 49ers, so I agree that line will rise from 3.5, though not to 6, probably to 4.5 or 5.

    Be intersting to see what happens with the Satan vs Jesus line, I was kind of shocked it opened at Satan -14. But since Holy Rollers can't bet, it may not drop, and Jesus may be a good value, though I don't think I could bring myself to bet against my hometown Satan in the game.

    haha, awesome post :lol:

    my guy hasn't posted the nfl lines yet :twisted: . I agree that if you can get the NYG at 8, now is the time to jump on it.

    prob right about the saints line...6 is a stretch. no real difference between getting 4 or 5 either.

    I have been waiting all year to bet big against what I think is a weak pats team. I don't think this is the week. unfortunately for me, the AFC is full of turds, so I might not get my chance. Maybe the super bowl I guess.

    For shits and giggles put $20 on Jordan Jefferson to score the first TD tonight at 15-1...thought about going "No TD scored" at 30-1 after the last game they played, but doubt it'll happen again.

    Lets hope LSU gets first and goal at the 1 on the opening drive and he runs it in on the option.

    OSHKOSH, Wis. -- Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin's son is missing.

    Police in Oshkosh say 21-year-old Michael T. Philbin of Ripon was last heard from around 2 a.m. Sunday. He had been visiting friends in Oshkosh that evening. He was reported missing on Sunday evening.

    A police spokesman did not immediately return a message left Monday seeking additional comment.

    A Brown County judge sentenced Michael Philbin to six months in jail in 2009 after he was convicted of sexually assaulting two young girls and two counts of battery.

    His disappearance comes as the Packers prepare to face the New York Giants in an NFC playoff game Sunday in Green Bay.

    yeah, you guys were all over the non-scoring stuff. I thought this game would be more wide open. I also bet LSU expecting they would have more than one first down at halftime.

    I'm staying away from 2nd half line. bama -.5, 20. I still think LSU can win this game. I hope they bring jarrett lee in

    yeah, that would be looking pretty good right about now.

    I know that bama's defense is sick, but LSU's play calling has been horrendous.

    Oh well, this game didnt go the way I was hoping. Looks like a losing night
