    Northern Iowa/Wichita St

    what am i missing here? northern iowa should be laying at least 2 or 3, shouldn't they? they already beat wichita state by 24. they are 7-0 on the conference road. last i checked, vegas doesn't usually give away money.

    Thursday NCAA

    i really hope this doesn't fall into the category of 'too easy'. louisville (-4) 3 units. had a huge play on the cardinals against the fighting irish last year, only to end up taking one of the worst beats ever, as notre dame rained in 3's from everywhere on the court the last 5 minutes or so...

    Wednesday Hoops

    went a few days without posting, and went on a nice run. naturally, these plays will go 0-3. 548 uconn (-12) 2 units. rautins is starting to find his stroke again, and that is cause for concern. but onuaku is still a non-factor. devendorf and flynn are just chuckers. i'm looking for...

    Saturday Hoops

    villanova (-5.5) 2 units. until rautins and onuaku are healthy again, syracuse is a bet-against for me. northwestern (+2) 1 unit. iowa has lost 4 straight and 7 of 8. gotta take the points. wright st (+2) 3 units. definitely lost a little value here with butler losing to the packers on...

    Wednesday Hoops

    alright, let me preface my picks by saying i am an idiot. i finally figured it out this weekend... if i'm ice cold, post my picks and i'll win. if i'm hot, for the love of god, don't post, because it will be the start of a losing streak. well, i've been doing pretty well since i turned things...

    Saturday Hoops

    alright, screw superstitions... i'm posting my plays today. besides, i'm in a tailspin and can't do any worse than what i've been doing this week. so here are 7 plays that you should probably fade. 526 pitt (-11) 3 units. speaking of tailspins, ladies and gentlemen, your 2008-2009 notre dame...

    Wednesday Hoops

    alright, after taking a break from posting hoops, time to start up again. pretty much just going against the grain here. each of these is for 1 unit. kent state (+3.5) kansas state (-3.5) talk about a line that makes no sense. north carolina (-13)

    National Championship

    here's the strange thing with me and the nc game... how many years have they been playing this game now? well, last year was the first year i ever hit it. yup, i was oh-for the nc game until LSU came through for me last year. so... do i still suck at this game and i just got lucky once? or...

    GMAC Bowl

    posting tonight, as i may not get to a computer tomorrow. this is my favorite play still on the board. tulsa (-3) 3 units. dammit, i should have played this game earlier, when tulsa was the dog. after 4 bowl games, people are finally realizing just how awful the mac was this year. (i've...

    Fiesta!!

    tough one here, because i really dislike both teams. ohio state (+9) 1 unit. don't get me wrong. the buckeyes are bad. the big 10 is really bad. and my first instinct when i saw the line was to play texas (always go with your first instinct, right?). but when i see 90% of the public on...

    Saturday Hoops

    as football winds down, time to start focusing on hoops. 2 plays today. minnesota (-4) 2 units. i think osu really feels the affects of losing lighty today, in their first road game without him. plus, the buckeyes play at michigan state in 3 days. byu (-2.5) 2 units. byu simply doesn't...

    International Bowl

    the line movement on this game... wow. just shooting up this morning. perhaps due to the exchange rate? anyways, i've got two friends at this game. they just gave me the weather report... IT'S IN A FREAKING DOME!! so, i hit the two biggest plays of my life yesterday, which means i'm due to...

    Liberty Bowl

    east carolina (-3) 1 unit. i just think kentucky is mediocre at best this year. after a great start, followed by a huge collapse, the pirates righted the ship (ha!) and finished well. i'm also a big fan of skip holtz.

    Friday Bowls

    Cotton Bowl just an FYI... texas tech is an absolute lock. yes, a lock. you know how i know? because i am the hottest handicapper on this site. well, in reverse. if you faded me yesterday, you would have went 5-1. anyone do any better than that?? and yup, mississippi is my biggest play...

    So Here's the Question...

    how much money does steve spurrier have on iowa? here's a guy who is notorious for yanking a qb after ONE mistake. garcia turns the ball over on their first 3 possessions, and one more time for good measurement. and yet spurrier keeps him in the game. i know smelley kinda stinks (like i...

    Happy New Year!!

    Outback Bowl south carolina (+4) 2 units. the first thing you always need to look at in bowl games is motivation. i think that's a wash in this game. neither team even made a bowl game last year, and they're playing on new year's day. so then it comes down to who is the better football...

    Wednesday Bowls

    Armed Forces Bowl houston (-4) 1 unit. the first matchup between these two teams was also on a 'neutral' field in texas, as they played in dallas. i know that was 3 months ago, but hopefully houston can build on the momentum they had at the end of that game, as they scored the last 21 points...

    Tuesday Bowl Games

    startin' with the game on the smurf turf. here's a fun game you can play at home... start a pool where everybody guesses how long into the broadcast until one of the witty announcers says "do not adjust your television, folks. the turf really is blue." followed by his partner laughing...

    Smitty's Independence Bowl

    wow, another new sponsor for a bowl game. another massive clash of titans tonight. a mediocre wac team vs a mediocre mac team. sweet. but, as degenerate gamblers, wager on it we must. both teams look to run the ball, averaging more yards on the ground than via the air. biggest difference...

    Saturday Bowl Games

    Smitty's Car Care Bowl new sponsor for today's first game. look out, i'm on fire, hitting one bowl game in a row. that is not a misprint. i hit a game last night!! north carolina (+2.5) 2 units. as nice a guy as bill stewart may be, he's done an awful job with a team many expected to...
