Above the fold

Abby Takes Down Vegas, Yr 3, Wk 9

There are wins and losses and there is how much is wagered on each game.

That could not be better illustrated than when Abby’s wins and losses are compared to her bones wagered at this season to date juncture.  Her season won/loss record stands even Steven at 21-21-1.  But the bones won number 36 against 27 surrendered.  That’s a money winning 57%.

Her hunch bet last week was a nonstarter as too many Sun Devils tested Covid-19 positive.  That bet total at 2-4.

It’s onward and upward from here.

  1.  Cincinnati -5 and 1/2 at UCF – The Bearcats have been rolling through all comers this year.  This is a tough spot though.  somehow we think they find a way to win and cover late  One bone.
  2. Missouri at South Carolina +6 and 1/2 –  Will Muschamp is gone.  The two starting Gamecock cornerbacks opted out (you could read that as quit) this week.  Everything looks bad for SC.  Abby knows a barking home dog when she sees one.  Two bones.
  3. Missouri at South Carolina under 57 and 1/2 –  If the bet above finds a path to victory it”ll be through defense and turnovers.  One bone.
  4.  Indiana at THE OSU -20 and 1/2 – Indiana has enjoyed a fine run. Saturday they run into THE. It’s tough love for the Hoosiers in the Horseshoe.  Two bones.
  5.  LSU -2 at Arkansas and under 57 and 1/2 –  My how the might have fallen.  If Arkansas was healthy this line would be flipped.   We’re guessing that LSU is actually going to play defense this week.  One bone to win three bones.
  6.  Oklahoma St. at Oklahoma -7 – It seems like after a shaky start that the Sooners have found their stride.  In the old days, a good D beat a good O.  No more.  One bone.

Abby has a hunch that Florida St will score just enough to cover a whopping 35 and 1/2 points against Clemson.  That’s one big barking dog.

Woof!
