PLEASE don't be afraid to chime in with your thoughts. Any information you can provide, I'll be grateful for.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong picking my big winners each week. I only went 7-4 on bets of $75 and over, but go 18-5 on $50 plays... Splitting my POD for a loss of -13... Guess that's why I go on so many plays each week, because my favorites tend to lose, while my leans win. Just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I thought at first I had won $757 this week, but I had a $10 adding error, which just is funny because that would be the second out of the last three weeks I had won that exact amount. I'm 17-3 on my first half plays and I'm going to continue to focus on those plays.

I'll be back with write-ups on these games and other game thoughts soon... Told SoonerBS I'm going to take it easy on early line plays this week. Every game I've won with early lines so far, I'd have won on the closing lines. For example, I had no business being on Kansas State this past week and wouldn't have been if I'd have waited until Friday to put in a play on that game. As you can see I went only on two full game sides. Took a lot of first half lines that I felt were good teams that had football type scores that should be covered or at least push.
