The Gambling God's taketh away and they giveth back. Nailed Georgia Tech and Clemson S/U last night ($4,550), then Northwestern S/U and UGA/Nebraska "over" (both with ease) for another $2,100. So $6,650 plus the $100 I had in the bank, $6,750 up! Party at South Fork, only $3,200 left to gamble.J.R.

Was 0-4 for $4,400 lost, wiping out all profits to date. Missed the Alamo Bowl O/U by one point. Rice, Syracuse, and Michigan all defeated the spread (and won straight up). Just one of those days. A mere $100 in my pocket, 7 more props to go!J.R.

A thing of beauty when Cincinnati returned the TD in the final minute, followed by an expected dismantling of UCLA by Baylor in what was a pick'em game.J.R.
