Mountainman, as you can see I can only take two bets.

Spence, yes I think that should be a good game but I don't think Pitt has been challenged yet. That's why I think Rutgers might put a beat down on them.

Any bets that North Dakota State will keep it within 14 points this week against Minnesota?

Not from me on that one.

Whoops, I meant the other way around :oops:

I think NDSU will lose by 2 scores.

Eric, I don't think they will stay within 30 points.

This is not for me either.

Okay, how about 17 points? North Dakota State isn't actually that bad of a 1-AA team, they did beat Ball State. However, Ball State isn't Minnesota. Even so, I think the Gophers will be down after having a beatdown by the Badgers.

Bison score late to lose 31-17.

Give me a day or two to think about it and I will let you know then.

I'm not touching that one. If I were to wager a guess, it would be that Minnesota will kill them up front and while it may be close (within 10) in the first half, Minny will run over them in the second half.

Alright, if anyone thinks the Bison get beat by more than 17, just tell me.

NO I can't take that. Sorry.

Okay, Jason G, as you suggested, I'll take Miami OH with 7 points and 10 CFP Bucks are at stake for each other point.

Spence, this is the bet Jason G suggested for Miami OH vs. Akron:

What do you say to 10 CFP Bucks per point off of the 7 point differential you mentioned? So if Akron wins by 10 I get 30 bucks. If Akron wins by 6 you'd get 10 CFP Bucks, If Miami wins by 2 you'd get 90. Does that make any sense? I like that kind of rolling bet as opposed to one specific amount.

If you want to make a bet like that, when the game is over the loser needs to post the amount. That way I don't have to look up the score to get the amount.

I agree to this bet.

OK Spence, I'm sure I can do that. Look at me...already assuming a loss.

Good thing you guys avoided that ND State bet :lol:

They're a good 1-AA team, a 10-9 victory for a lackluster and unpassionate team like the Gophers isn't much of a suprise. Glenn Mason would be toast if the kicker makes that FG.

Man, that was a good game. It was better than I thought it would be.

To me Rutgers is more dangerous than Louisville is right now.

I thought Louisville was , well I don't know.
