i still have some money to put on some games, but i don't know what else is a smart pick

[Adidas410s]

you are picking Tech??? WOW!!! Do you pick these games straight up or on a spread?

[District303aPastPlayer]

Purdue won't beat ND in South Bend.

[AggieJohn]

straight up, and then you get a percentage of money from the losers if you win...the money is fictious by the way

their 4-0 is like this...

09/02 Indiana St W 60-35
09/09 Miami (OH) W 38-31
09/16 Ball St W 38-28
09/23 Minnesota W 27-21

he's saying to take ND.

So what happens if you take Texas??? Do you not make any money since nobody would take SHSU?

[District303aPastPlayer]

yes, take Notre Dame.

[AggieJohn]

i took ND now, and bumped it up too 35,000

[Adidas410s]

and seeing as how this is on an Aggie site...taking Tech is a great pick simply because it is likely that a majority of entrants will take A&M to win the game.

[AggieJohn]

and moved the aggie game line too the maximum of 40% of my total money

[AggieJohn]

yeah, as far as i know, you won't have the chance to make the "money" that others do, but yeah you can, it might now happen this week because it normally takes until wednesday for them to get their system reflushed for the next week.....
