A 4 / 4 sweep on the star selections, couldn't bring it home with the parlays. I also put up a parlay on the late games, a 4 parter, and went to sleep Saturday night with three of the conditions affirmative (ND & Stanford UNDER, San Jose & Fresno UNDER, USC -16, all in line). Then UNLV gave up 1 point too many (a TD with 1:11 to go in the game, damn!), and my success turned into a 1/2 point loss. That would have been some sweet ending for the weekend!
BTW, the ND:Stanford affirmative result in the four part parlay is a covert curse breaker. Slipping that one in under cover of west coast start times and a parlay was necessary to allow bowl success. They are just another team now...as if we haven't known that for 20 years.
Here's the recap.
**** Memphis @ Southern Mississippi -35 1/2
Final 44-7
Pete's Perfect Pick was, indeed, perfect. Nicely done, Two Gun(n).
***Maryland @ NC State -12 WIN
Final 56-41
NC State was 34-14 at the half, they trailed by 6 with 6 minutes to play, and they came back for an incredible cover 3 star winner!
** Wyoming +34 1/2 @ Boise State WIN
Final 36-14.
The Cowboys put up 7 in the 1st and 7 in the 4th, enough to cover. Another good win for us.
* Tulane +16 1/2 @ Hawaii
Final 35-23
Everybody wins: Hawaii gets a W, Tulane gets a trip to the beach, we get a sweep of our star wagers. Ain't that America!
The parlay blew up early.
In Boca Raton, the "Win One for the Schneller" speech worked wonders, as FAU broke through with a 38-35 victory, the team's only win of 2011. Irrespective of this hallmark victory , Coach Schnellenberger and his entire staff have already been dismissed.
Fantastic matchups coming this week and Bowl Game announcements next Sunday!

- Northwestern +6 hosting Michigan State Final 31-17. The game turned in the 2nd quarter: NU fumbled on the 3, MSU scored 4 plays later, 14 point difference. NU banged a line drive punt into the hands of MSU's best returner and it was 7 more, a total of 21 turn around points in the first half. Can't do that against good teams, boys.
- Iowa State +28 1/2 vs Oklahoma Final 26-6. The Cowboys led 6-3 when OK hit the "ON" switch and shut 'em down. A good cover, this one.
- Wyoming +34 12/ @ Blue Men Group Final 36-14. Wyoming was good enough
- Auburn +21 1/2 against the Tide Tide running back Trent Richardson killed the cover with an amazing 57 yard run to set up the cover breaking TD for Alabama in the 4th quarter.
