Tracking my 2007 fantasy football picks

Careful plays tonight

Nov 1, 2006, 7:06pm | Posted by Steve

Added bets 8:30pm: It looks like Boise State has already worn down Fresno, so I'm tacking on a couple of post-halftime bets. Both for only 1/3 unit.

I'm very interested in watching tonight's Fresno State/Boise State game, but I've been unsure what angles to play. So I'm treading carefully, making three bets — two angling for a sort of middle on the Over/Under — and one very small bet on Boise. Here's what I've got:

11/1 ACTION

Fresno St. at Boise St., Under 30.5 1H - 2/3 unit

Fresno St. at Boise St., Over 56 - 2/3 unit

Fresno St. at Boise St. (-21) - 1/3 unit

Fresno St. at Boise St. (-4 3Q) - 1/3 unit

Fresno St. at Boise St. (-10 2H) - 1/3 unit

I think it's unlikely I'll lose both the first-half Under and full-game Over, and it's quite conceivable I'll hit them both. I'm less than confident about laying so many points on a Boise State team I don't think is nearly so good as they've been hyped to be, but Fresno is lousy this season. I'll risk the small bet.
