Some more James Franklin Gambling Stats (and next week's pick) ...

[michnittlion]

So we covered today (per my site, the line closed at 5.5). Which means:

1. We are 5-0 against the spread this year when coming off of a straight-up victory. We are 0-2 against the spread this year when coming off of a straight-up loss.

2. We are 20-3-1 against the spread in regular-season games the last 3 years when coming off of a straight-up victory. We are 0-5-1 against the spread in regular-season games the last 3 years when coming of of a straight-up loss.

3. We are 27-9-1 against the spread in regular-season games since CJF arrived when coming off of a straight-up victory. We are 1-12-2 against the spread in regular season games since CJF arrived when coming off of a straight-up loss.

4. We are 16-1 against the spread in regular season games over the last 3 years when coming off of 2 consecutive straight-up victories.

These statistics: I find the difference between how we perform off of victories/losses to be crazy. It's a HUGE difference. We are a momentum team. And, though it hasn't been pretty, we have some momentum now.

Take us to cover and win straight up (money line bet) against Michigan next week.

Who cares? Did we win? Then I am happy.

what is the opening spread ?? UM favored by 6.5 maybe. I don't trust the officials in this one.

Over 7 wouldn't surprise me. McSorely status will be key.

Vegas has built towers off people thinking they found a trend. Just saying, be cautious. My gut is UM covers handily.

The wolverees will be out in full force next week so as to preserve the scUM/O$U game for all the marbles. Bank on it. PSU will have it all against them next week.

You are a freaking IDIOT!!!!

It’s not our performance that you are assessing. It’s the performance of the line. Your question should be “why does the line/betting public have a hard time predicting PSU’s performance, given the previous game result?”

Hey Grant, looks like the score worked out, good job

open at -10.5 for UM. immediately bet up to -11.5

 

[Grant Green]

Crazy eh? I ended up hitting both!! Those 2 safeties ended up working out for me.

I started thinking that near the end of the game, congrats!

That late sideline call reversal will be a catch in Ann Arbor. Yeah, the officials are a worry, including the review ref.

Sadly, judging by all the past calls and the fact that UM may be the only chance for a B1G team in the playoffs, we will be playing against the refs on Saturday.

Did you also made $$ on Kentucky vs Mizzou? I thought you bet KY at first, but you then you wanted to straddle?

 

[djr4rebs]

What is the line on UK/UGA? Wildcat faithful are jumping on the football bandwagon, but most expect to lose to the Bulldogs.

I would have hedged the bet if it went below 7 but it went the other way, so yeah I won the bet. Kentucky ran back a punt with 5 min left to cover. And then drove the field and got a td on an untimed down. A bit lucky but i'll take it.
