    Jeff Sagarin lives in Indiana so he applies is model to HS football and basketball. The rating scores he had for my game last week were 58 and 17. Home team won 48-17 but could have scored more if they hadn't put in their backups midway through the third quarter.

    So I'm guessing there's an active underground book-making enterprise in Indiana high school athletics.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    Sometimes you catch texas HS games on online books. I wouldn't doubt a local book having Indiana HS's.

    Really regret signing up for one of those books online. They call me now.. And ive never bet...

    With what's happened with the online poker, I'd be getting my money out if you've got any just sitting in there.

    I'm going to say this again. A team DOES NOT need 7 DI wins to make the playoffs.

    That is true. But a team with less than 7 DI wins has never gotten an at large bid. Ever. Thus far its 7 DI wins or an AQ.

    With the expanded playoff system this year, chances are a team with fewer wins (from a power conf of course) will make it

    I know it's not a set rule, but FCS teams should need to have 7 D1 wins in order to get a AL selection. If we start letting games between 6-5 teams, it will look like a bowl game. That's something I want nothing a part of.

    If a conference winner is 6-5 and receives and auto-bid, then that is just how it played out that season.
