Herm Edwards’ ASU Sun Devils an Underdog in Las Vegas Bowl
Any bowl committee with rights to the MWC champion is no slouch, and therefore it feels like a major letdown that Fresno State is paired against a mid-tier contender like the Arizona State Sun Devils in the Las Vegas Bowl on December 15th. Especially given what high hurdles the Bulldogs overcame to beat-out Boise State for the crown. But live-event planners from Vegas know … [Read more...] about Herm Edwards’ ASU Sun Devils an Underdog in Las Vegas Bowl
The Army-Navy Game Has an Absurdly Cautious Point Spread
2017’s epic Army-Navy Game is affecting how Las Vegas handicappers see the upcoming 2018 scrum. How do we know? Easy. Just take a look at the odds. Army West Point is a (-7) favorite in the point spread, and the Black Knights carry a (-280) moneyline next to Navy’s (+230). The Over/Under total is a meek (40) points despite a lack of precipitation expected at Lincoln … [Read more...] about The Army-Navy Game Has an Absurdly Cautious Point Spread
Holy Knight, Maybe UCF Deserved a Playoff Spot After All
I cover international hockey on occasion, and the most time-honored knock on the format is the single-game elimination scenario. Why potentially crown a champion by means of a few lucky bounces over 60 minutes? The criticism overlooks that an IIHF or Olympic tournament is designed to determine the best team. Not necessarily the best match-up for a single 60:00 against … [Read more...] about Holy Knight, Maybe UCF Deserved a Playoff Spot After All
Field Goal Underdog Memphis Could Break UCF’s Streak This Saturday
No team has come closer to stopping Central Florida’s dominant streak of unbeaten football than the 2018 Memphis Tigers. The Tigers fell in a 31-30 defeat to the Knights earlier this season with a healthy starting QB in the opposing lineup. The Memphis defense is hoping to abuse a replacement, frosh quarterback while snatching the AAC championship and a repeat-undefeated … [Read more...] about Field Goal Underdog Memphis Could Break UCF’s Streak This Saturday
Texas vs Oklahoma: Moneyline Wager on the Big 12 Championship Game
Because the league lacks great defenses – or even good defenses – not every college football pundit thinks that Oklahoma should go to the College Football Playoff in January, even if the Sooners win the Big 12 Championship Game this Saturday at AT&T Stadium. But no real fan can refute that the match-up at Jerry World is a potential classic in the making. A re-match of … [Read more...] about Texas vs Oklahoma: Moneyline Wager on the Big 12 Championship Game
Loving This Conference Championship Week Parlay
Alright … I might hate myself come Saturday night for doing this, but I want to advocate a parlay. Normally I advise against them. The last time I endorsed a parlay was a 3-team play in Week 6 of the NFL season which I came tantalizingly close to winning. Before getting started, I’ll provide a disclaimer: Parlays are -EV bets. If you hit a parlay it will pay off big time. … [Read more...] about Loving This Conference Championship Week Parlay
Alabama vs Auburn: Iron Bowl Odds and Betting Preview
FCS underdog The Citadel bothered the Alabama Crimson Tide for 2 quarters last weekend in what was supposed to be a thrash-for-cash game. But the more lasting story might be the mistake made by Alabama coach Nick Saban in the 2nd half. Maybe concerned about the effect of a 10-10 halftime tie on his team’s College Football Playoff seeding, the veteran skipper kept his best … [Read more...] about Alabama vs Auburn: Iron Bowl Odds and Betting Preview
Alabama is the Best CFB Team Since Winston’s Noles
Understatement of the year: Alabama has been tearing up college football this season. Even die hard Tide haters have to agree that Alabama is easily the favorite to win this year’s title. The Crimson Tide have beat up on the likes of Arkansas State and UL-Lafayette, as expected, but are also making a mockery of SEC play. Take a look at the following breakdown of Alabama’s … [Read more...] about Alabama is the Best CFB Team Since Winston’s Noles
