Morning sheets — Nov 03
Monday was a split decision with a bad bottom line. One winner, two losers, and the bank took a dent.The big one first. Ohio State at +146 on the moneyline never got going against BYU, who won 94-83. Eleven points of daylight at the final, and that's a 2-unit sting.
The Clippers at +188 came up seven short at home, 125-118 to Toronto. Close enough to feel it, not close enough to cash.
The bright spot was UCLA at +180, which took Arizona outright in Tucson, 84-75. That one paid the way a long price should.
Net on the day is red, and the sheet shows it: $9,107 in the vault, down $893 since Oct 25, sitting at 10-17. The 1-unit tickets are 6-10 and the 2-unit tickets are 3-6, and that's where the damage lives. Nothing to dress up there. Dogs are the lane, and the lane has been bumpy.
Fresh slate, fresh numbers. Here's what's on the board.
Coffee first. Numbers second.
