There hasn’t been much Vegas line movement on the Boston College vs Boise State scrum at Cotton Bowl Stadium on 12/26. In fact, the betting odds have been amazingly steady for more than a week. The Boise Blue are a (-3) favorite on the point spread.

New Mexico Bowl Gambling Preview: Utah State vs North Texas
The New Mexico Bowl has managed to steer clear of lopsided games in the current decade. Apart from Utah State’s 21-6 win over the UTEP Miners, no New Mexico Bowl since 2012 has been determined by more than a single touchdown. Yet as December 15th draws closer, there remains a fairly wide spread on USU and North Texas.

Betting Guide to the Ice Hockey World Junior Championships
It is rare for the junior level of a sport to receive more attention than the senior level. The Alabama Crimson Tide’s redshirted freshmen surely have their own scrimmages and intramural games, but nobody would ever kill a tree in retaliation for losing one. Hopefully not, anyway. There are exceptions to every rule, however, especially in ice hockey where rules are meant to … [Read more...] about Betting Guide to the Ice Hockey World Junior Championships

Dallas Only a Slight Favorite vs Philly After TNF Triumph
Some weeks ago, the Cowboys-Eagles rivalry did not look all that appealing or significant. Dallas wasn't yet coming off its biggest win of the season, a corker with the New Orleans Saints that ended with the 'Boys preserving a 13-10 lead to the end. Philadelphia wasn't finding a 2nd wind in its defense of the Lombardi Trophy...yet. The teams are now at .500 (Philly) and … [Read more...] about Dallas Only a Slight Favorite vs Philly After TNF Triumph
City Favored Over Hoffenheim in EPL vs Bundesliga Champions League Fixture
The only unpredictable element of Manchester City in 2018-19 has been which of the Sky Blues will tally on a given evening. The club is actually close to “maxing out” its possible point total through 15 Matchdays in the Premier League, winning in 90+ minutes 13 times, drawing 2 times, and never losing. Champions League play has brought equally impressive results. Just as … [Read more...] about City Favored Over Hoffenheim in EPL vs Bundesliga Champions League Fixture
