Lots of chilly weather games and many hitter/pitcher matchups that favor the pitcher.

Debated going Galaxy OR Over 3.5 - went with the one I did. Think we see something like a 3-2 final. Not so sure the right side is favored here. 100% sure Galaxy have no business being this big of a home dog, too

This is exactly why I NEVER say the "L" word about picks. If anyone other than Heim had posted, I would have automatically gone the other way.
Expensive play yesterday.

JM was up 24-3 at the half. That makes the bet a winner already, if (1) you play the other side at that point, for a guaranteed profit.

Alternately one (2) could also go for the middle or for (3) a free roll on either side.

Yes, Kenny White is a tout. But he's been following FCS football all year. Who
do you think Fezzik gets his plays from?

CRIS was dealing 2.5 most of the day. They wanted SHST money.

3 TDs in 5 minutes by State. What are you going to do? And starting
Qb for JMU hurt late.

In the words of Fezz, we move on.

I SHOULD have done the 1st half play. If it cashed then all would have been good. If JMU had fallen behind I would have doubled up for the game - maybe.
