Georgia Tech +6 1/2 Visiting Virginia Tech Covers 17-20 as the Saturday Play of the Day, Boise State Loses, Late Pick on Giants -117 Wins 7-0

Take the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets +6 1/2 over the Virginia Tech Hokies as the Saturday Play of the Day, 1:30 PM Pacific. Then we are taking a WAC team, the Boise State Broncos -17 at home over the Bowling Green Falcons, at 5:00 PM Pacific. The Broncos should blow them out. Bet both these games early, as the lines should move against us before game time. We are no longer going to bet ten dollar wagers on baseball.
Our Picks
The Play of the Day Matchup
Additional WAC Game of the Week Matchup

Results: Our play of the day covers. We told you the line would move. It went from +6 1/2 when we bet it early this morning to +3 before game time.
We also added the Giants with Lincecum to our list of picks. Lincecum is the best pitcher in baseball and you got to love him at -117. Boise State does not score in the second half and we lose that bet. We show a loss on the day of $12 below, but this does not include our profits on our late selection on the Giants which won 7-0.

Real time money management: We are betting 25% of our bankroll on the play of the day, and betting 20% of the bankroll on any additional games. Since we are in an uptrend and working off our profits we can afford the additional risk.

Beginning profit pool balance $670
Play of the day Georgia Tech bet (25% of $670) $168
Won $153 on Georgia Tech - Hey we told you the line would move.
Revised profit pool balance $823
Boise State -17 (20% of $823) bet $165
Boise State does not cover lose $165
Ending profit pool balance $658 (Down $12 on the day, down 2% on the day)
