WVU/Army 2nd half

We know WVU is the better team, we know Army is so one-dimensional it is often painful to look at their box score while wondering how the hell they score TDs. But their Defense, their defense is playing legit today. It was a question mark not having faced a traditional team that could get chunks through the air. It's hard for me to pull the trigger on Army to hold on or even cover a +2.5 in-game spread now. One play I do love though is OVER 17.5 for the second half. I'm not sure if this is the true 2nd half total, but I see a 41.5 game total at -105 that I have to take.

If Army scores a TD this half, easy hit. That's what this bet boils down to, and WVU hasn't impressed me a ton despite not giving up much yardage.

ball is wet and high winds, FG's are tough, 17.5 is really 20. Army wants to shorten game, there has been zero chunk plays. WV cant play catch, qb sucks. army +7, 2h best play. refs ALWAYS give service academy calls in bowl games, watch and see.

Great, now I have to sweat out a defensive score


Always great to be in that position, however a gambler's experience forces you to envision the worst case scenario on every snap of the football.

NO, not the 10-yard out pattern.

NO, not a sack, fumble, and scoop and score.

NO, not the rugby play deep in my team's own end.

Football scoring makes it an exciting game on which to bet.

John, I've lost so many bets when the other team scores on defense in the final seconds that I almost come to expect it. If you ever watch SVP on ESPN when he does his bad beat segment, every highlight he shows are games I lost, the NW laterals against OSU, the Josh Rosen strip sack scoop and score against Stanford with zeros on the clock, and of course the infamous Belk Bowl. You see, it happens to me quite often, but not once have I ever won a bet in that fashion, not once, obviously being a dog player I've never even been in a spot where I needed a miracle finish like that
