By Leave a Comment

With the FBS bowl season fast approaching, it's another excuse to bring-up how pigskin gamblers are actually some of the most "wholesome" and "optimistic" sports-watchers out there, in direct defiance of old-fashioned countryside writers who argue that gambling detracts from the audience's genuine sporting … Read More... about College Football Picks in Week 11: LSU Tigers at Arkansas Razorbacks Odds, Spread, and Pac-12 O/U Point Total Wagers

Stanley Cup Finals: Golden Knights vs Panthers Series Price Odds, Game 1 Preview, and Championship Pick

By Leave a Comment

The 2022-23 Stanley Cup playoffs did not produce a pair of 4-game sweeps in the conference finals, a scenario that "Super" Mario Lemieux last helped to bring about back in the 1990s. But, in any case the results of this year's conference-title playoff series were noteworthy for speculators, thanks to the … Read More... about Stanley Cup Finals: Golden Knights vs Panthers Series Price Odds, Game 1 Preview, and Championship Pick

Week 8 College Football Picks: Purdue vs Wisconsin Odds and Saturday O/U Lines

By Leave a Comment

In the words of Colin Montgomerie after Team England bogeyed the 18th hole to lose a match, "well, that changes all that, then." Forget that tripe about Alabama getting a "mulligan" at #5 just so Cincinnati could be left dangling at #4, waiting to be nixed from the 2021-22 College Football Playoff as soon as the SEC Championship Game and Big Ten Championship scrums took … [Read more...] about Week 8 College Football Picks: Purdue vs Wisconsin Odds and Saturday O/U Lines

College Football Betting: Air Force at Boise State Spread and 4 Saturday Picks

By Leave a Comment

We usually don't use weekly intros to soapbox, but rather to introduce overall betting angles to think about when preparing a round of picks. This time, though, the 2 genres are kind of connected. Alabama should absolutely not be a 5th-ranked team after losing to an unranked school with a .500 record like Texas A&M. It's not so much about "SEC bias" or even Power-5 bias, … [Read more...] about College Football Betting: Air Force at Boise State Spread and 4 Saturday Picks

Week 6 FBS Odds and Picks: Navy a Strong ATS Wager at Home

By Leave a Comment

Leagues designed to promote absolute parity can make the fog of shallow hype even harder to squint through. How many times has an NFL player gone on a talk show, and when asked if his team can potentially win the Super Bowl, he says, "Hey man, sky's the limit. Lotta talent on this team." That's probably my favorite political-sports tripe of all, "Lotta talent on this team." … [Read more...] about Week 6 FBS Odds and Picks: Navy a Strong ATS Wager at Home

Week 5 CFB Odds and Predictions: Boise State vs Nevada Point Spread Pick

By Leave a Comment

Those who follow WagerBop's W/L records know that our Daily Double prediction outcomes are far more curious than our results with any other sport or league. We do pretty well on big soccer matches and flop often on also-ran derbies - it's much the same with UFC (especially yours-truly's prizefighting picks, which only seem to pay off if the event's PPV buy-rate matches a … [Read more...] about Week 5 CFB Odds and Predictions: Boise State vs Nevada Point Spread Pick

As we've noted repeatedly headed into the 2021 conference slate, heretofore-unheralded (geez, that sounds like a 2020s luxury car slogan, but it fits today's topic with Undeniable Precision and Precise Undeniability) FBS programs are making hay against the nation's Top 25, and the phenomenon of name-brand teams flopping as massive favorites against mid-ranked Division 1 … [Read more...] about Week 4 FBS Odds and Picks: Mizzou’s Moneyline and Saturday’s Other Best Bets

Having blogged about High School pigskin for nearly the last 10 years in a row, I've been witness to the "NCAA-ification" of the prep ranks. That's not necessarily a reference to the scourge of hand-picked teams and so-called Friday night "football" broadcasts that turn into scouting orgies for SEC aficionados, or even the "Bishop Sycamore" syndrome of independent barnstorming … [Read more...] about Week 3 NCAA Football: Odds, Lines, and LSU vs CMU O/U Pick

FBS Week 1 Preview and Picks: Arizona vs BYU Odds and ATS Prediction

The most interesting angle of 2021's college football kickoff is the prospect of Group-of-5 teams finally taking revenge on the sport's aristocrats. The NCAA's general COVID-19 waiver for last year's seniors has allowed G5 schools to return 95% of a roster in some scenarios, while the Top 25 has been ransacked as usual by NFL teams and transfer decisions.
