Actually KSU ended up favored in the game today, was a lot of sharp money on Kansas St in the last 24 hours.
So, with TCU not looking like a winning team today, who gets the fourth playoff spot?
- Thread starter HailtoPitt
- Start date
I saw Williams get banged up and Utah had all the momentum. Like u said - Duggan got the last at bat to showcase himself and the only other guy with a chance to win it.
Kansas State couldn't be playing Duggan any worse down the stretch. How does he keep having these running lanes? Starting to look damn-near fixed.
Markets like this are definitely exploitable in some areas of the country. Las Vegas books are extremely conservative with these type of wagers and would never have kept that open during the game.
Not sure if the whistle blew. If it didn't, that has to either be a touchdown or a turnover. Unless the recovery wasn't clear, I guess.
Good for you, anytime I’m asked about betting I always tell people to do their research and fund as many apps as they’re able to and make sure they are getting the best number available. A half point here or there or getting 12/1 instead of 10/1 may not seem like a huge deal, but if you’re betting regularly it can easily be the difference between a winning or losing season.
Reminded of that Whitehead play at the end of the first half against Clemson.
Wow. TCU took the playoffs and Heisman away from themselves in two moronic play calls. Should have just let Duggan sneak it it.
Absolutely correct. No way they should be penalized for that game. Those other teams didn't earn the right to even play today.
TCU still deserves to make it, and I think they will given how close the game was. IMO, the question becomes whether Ohio State or TCU is ranked third and fourth.
Georgia and Michigan both hoping for TCU, I imagine.
You guys are crazy. College footbll s all about money and ratings. Alabama vs Georgia and Ohio State rematch vs Michigan is big money and big ratings. I hope TCU gets in but the powers to be wont let it happen.
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if that’s what happens. But I think TCU deserves to get in.
Alabama lost to #7 and #14. Beat #20 and #24.
TCU lost to #10 (they will move up). Beat #10 (which will move up ) and #20.
Alabama beat Texas without Ewers (for at least a half) by one. TCU beat Texas with Ewers by 7.
Alabama did not make a conference championship. TCU did.
12 wins is more than 10.
1 loss is less than 2.
There's no metric in the world that has Alabama in over TCU.
Everything you said is correct. In an honest industry that is how it should work. Problem is it isn't an honest industry.
Are more people going to watch Alabama and Georgia or TCU and Georgia.
Lets also not forget that the game will be in Georgia so what will sell more tickets.
You are looking at it from a sensible point of view as opposed to a monetary point of viw,
Trust me i think TCU should be in i just don't think College Football lets it happen.
Its all about the money
They let Cincinnati in last year. And it's going to sell out either way, honestly. That part won't be in question.
They were 12-0 and didn't leave them an option. TCU opened the door to have debate.
Don't get me wrong i hope they let them in i think they deserve it but its Alabama and the SEC. it's a rigged system
Cincy only got in last yeqr due to their win against ND, if they didn’t play a 1 loss Irish would have been #4 and Cincy #5.
So they got in because, in spite of their name, their resume warranted it. It's the same reason TCU will get in.
Do you think if Cincy would have lost their championship game they would have got in. Any time you lose you give them a reason not to put you in. I'd go as far to say if TCU was in the SEC they would still be in. I hope they re in but I'll be shocked if they are
They will still be in, even in spite of not being in the SEC. I'd bet a huge amount of money on it.
Like i said i hope you are right but its about money and ratings. I hope Im wrong
If they let TCU in after losing, it’s because the free antitrust or collusion lawsuits down the line when they form the Uber Conference, which the likes of TCU and Cincy won’t be in. It was clear today they aren’t worthy.
I think Alabama proved over their 12 game schedule that they aren't worthy.
