h1n1

h1n1 already playing a role in ncaaf early on. look for this to be more of a factor as the football season continues.

for a second there, i thought you were talkin about a sports term i couldn't think of

Truthfully, if H1N1 news comes down, I think it may actually over-inflate a line. Everything about this virus in the media has been overstated. The numbers of influenza infections this year will be similar to normal years -- the effects of H1N1 are just quicker and sometimes more severe. Teams (and college campuses as a whole) are taking greater precautions vs. the flu this year than ever. I agree, H1N1 may present an opportunity this year -- I just think it will present an over adjustment of a line, which I hope to take advantage of.

Joe Cox was the first player to get headlines for flu symptoms (played poorly in non cover). Colt McCoy had flu this week, played poorly (no cover). Florida reporting guys that had symptoms played below par..no cover. Wisconsin was a no cover when they had a bunch of players with sympoms leading up to the game with Fresno. I think there are a couple I am missing. Washington State or their opponent week 1, might have been one.

I was sick for 2 weeks. Never had a flu like it. Was sleeping 16 hours per day. Could not have played football...
