    Yes sir was an exciting game.

    Maybe I should unretire from prop bets would've went 2-0 tonight maybe have learned how to research with statistics after a couple years of retirement lol I kid I kid I've lived the prop bet life before and Vegas is too sneaky good for me both of these prop bets came down to the wire tonight idk if just me but felt like I always took a bad beat during end of game regardless if went over or under when used to prop.

    OT: Here were my politics futures bets: looks like I'll cash on FL. Love that +20000 I got on Pence in March. That could've happened in several scenarios.

    The NJ books don't carry politics unfortunately. I like the longshots with Pence. Florida was a layup too for Repubs nice snag.

    Dipped into politics last night and watched the coverage. We now have 19 straight days of football since the MAC is back with 6 games tonight. I wish I knew anything about it lol.

    Liking what I'm reading about Eastern Michigan. For whatever reason I was looking up the worst college football programs and I believe statistically Kent State is one of the worst of all time. Not that that means much as KS seems to have a good quarterback returning and very little at the skill position spots.

    Eastern Michigan is the opposite but it sounds like this dude can fling the ball.

    FYI Athlon doesn't make betting predictions but they usually have good synopsis' on the personnel and coaching/program situation.

    EDIT: a little less confident in this pick seeing the line all the way down at +3.5 on the road in game one. Down from +6/7

    These guys play good football similar to sun belt. Lots of all-pros coming out of these schools--AB, Big Ben and Khalil Mack come to mind immediately. Garrapolo, Ward (safety for 49ers), many others.

    Sounds like a good night to watch football and sip vodka.

    Please figure out a winner for us!

    I'm thinking both dogs. I'd feel more confident about Eastern Michigan since they seem to have a better QB situation than Central Michigan.

    Central Michigan is without their starting QB because of a steroid one year ban (lol). Otherwise they'd probably be my pick. I'll probably play Eastern Michigan and depending on how that looks take CMU if I'm up or EMU looks good.

    I don't like any of the big point spreads in game 1. Too hard to predict with small conference teams playing each other. I'll check Miami vs. Ball State too which is basically a pickem. Usually favor the home team/better QB in those instances.

    Sometimes the best bets for gamblers, are no bets; you guys will never catch me betting or gambling on MAC games (talk about crapfest coin flips lol).

    I'll watch out of entertainment but when it comes to football I'm a Saturday and Sunday type of Gambler, I can't allow myself to stress myself on a Wednesday between teams like Buffalo @ NIU ahhhhlololo

    I'd rather go to a HS Football games and make side bets on Pinellas County Teams (here in Florida) and bet on the likes of Lakewood Spartans, Northeast Vikings, St. Pete Green Devils, Largo Packers, Clearwater, Boca Ciega, Clearwater Academy, Calvary Christian, East Lake, Pinellas Park Patriots, Countryside etc etc because truth be told, my County's HS program's produce more NFL players out of powerhouse NCAA Conferences than... The MAC lolo

    @Jonathan_Vilma I had some success betting on Ball St. early last year so I'm gonna try them out in game 1.

    If you come up with something you feel good about plz let us know before KO.

    Khalil Mack, Antonio Brown, Roethlisberger, Edelman, James Harrison, Randy Moss, Antonio Gates, etc.

    They produce NFL players. Not all good football is in the ACC or SEC. But thanks for sharing.

    I was just thinking about Ball State. 17/22 starters return.

    I'm going to try Eastern Michigan and go small on Ball State depending on how they start in the hour before BS. I think you identified the best bet though.
