I’ve spent parts of the last week looking back on Jacksonville’s absolute destruction of Indianapolis, and listening to everyone say that this will be a tough, close game for the Colts. I’m not sure I buy it. Both teams are very different than they were when they met last year. The Colts are actually playing […]
There are way too many huge lines in the NFL this week. Fully half of the games on the schedule have spreads of at least a touchdown. As a general rule I hate games like that because you can never be sure if a team is going to want to crush an inferior opponent, if […]
There are just a few college games that stick out this week.
Kansas (-3.5) at Colorado - The Jayhawks are a huge surprise this year with their undefeated record. Colorado is much better than they are supposed to be, too. Colorado is coming off a bad loss, though, while Kansas has covered every time out. […]
Here are some of the things that have caught my eye heading into the weekend of action:
The Trojans just can’t catch a break. USC’s charter plane plummeted during a thunderstorm on the way to South Bend. People were thrown from their seats, there was lots of screaming, and the pilot had to abort the initial […]
South Florida (-1.5) at Rutgers - Who would have guessed a few months ago that this would be quite possibly the biggest game of the week in college football. With a win, South Florida takes charge of the Big East. They lose and the whole thing is a big mess.
The biggest thing that I […]
The Devil is here on earth, and his name is TSN!
For those of you who aren’t Canadian, TSN is Canada’s foremost sports network. It tries hard to be ESPN, but, unlike ESPN, TSN is mostly terrible. For the most part I don’t really care. Once in a while, though, they do something to infuriate me. […]
Game four of the ALCS goes tonight in Cleveland, and there may be a chance to get some decent betting value. The pitching matchup is Paul Byrd (+104) for the Indians versus knuckleballer Tim Wakefield (-114) for Boston. I’m on Cleveland for the series and I would suggest that there is value on them here, […]
Giants (-4.5) at Atlanta - This is a particularly interesting game to evaluate because it seems a bit too good to be true. The Giants looked rough early last week against the Jets, but they came back nicely to deliver their third straight solid win. Atlanta looked terrible last week in a loss to Tennessee […]
There’s only one game that everyone is talking about this week - New England at Dallas. Though I won’t be making a pick on the game because I don’t see a lot of value in the line, there is one thing I would be willing to bet on - one way or the other the […]
Just three college games stick out this week. Some weeks just don’t have the potential that others do, though that obviously varies by who is looking at them:
Illinois (-3.5) at Iowa - When I was first looking at this game on the schedule this week, I had Illinois favored by 6.5 (and still attractive […]
