Betting against my alma mater, final roundup!
Purdue once again after covering got a reasonable line this week. Indiana was 10 point favorites in West Lafayette. I was out of town for the weekend, which was fortunate since my home internet went out for 3 days and my phone data was throttled because of German bureaucracy. Lucky for me, from the…
Betting against my alma mater, week 12: confirmed for losing
Purdue traveled to snowy Iowa City this weekend, and got a huge gift from Vegas. 23.5 points! In what was forecast to be inclement weather! With low temps! I knew from the start this bet was lost before it was even placed. That’s probably why, for some reason, I forgot to screenshot the actual…
Betting against my alma mater, Week 11: Back to break even
Purdue took on Northwestern this weekend, and the oddsmakes loved the Wildcats’ chances. Of course, after covering in two of the last three weeks I was surprised the line was as high as it was. It seems nobody knows which Purdue team is going to show up. And apparently it was the “not…

To be honest, I thought this line was a little high, but I said I was going to bet against Purdue every game this season and I am holding myself to it. The Badgers were favored by 23.5. On the surface, looking at Purdue’s past performances against the Badgers it was attainable, but I just…
Betting against my alma mater: Week 6 (I should sell this system)

After me questioning my experiment last week, Minnesota came in to Ross Ade as 3.5 point favorites (the line was actually somewhere in the 3.25 point range, since it paid back at -105 instead of the normal -110). I thought perhaps the tides had turned when Purdue took the first drive to the house (and…

Betting against my alma mater: Week 5 (Regression to the mean?)

It finally happened, after going 0-3 ATS, Purdue finally covered. I do have to say I didn’t see it coming, as the Spartans took a 21-0 lead into the locker room at half time, but in the most uncharacteristic of Purdue moves, Purdue fought back (though perhaps the driving rain bogged down Michigan…
