    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...

    Motor City Bowl

    awful, awful start to the bowl season. i'd strongly suggest fading this play. especially because i'm going against my first instinct. florida atlantic (+7) 2 units. i've really enjoyed watching lefevour the last few years, and the chips have definitely won me some money. my first thought...

    Hawaii Bowl

    aloha means goodbye... i really miss mediocre notre dame teams playing in a bcs bowl. some of the easiest money i ever made was in their games against osu & lsu. oh well, now they are relegated to the hawaii bowl. the rainbow warriors (i don't care if they dropped the 'rainbow', they will...

    Tuesday Night

    i've been debating whether or not to make this a play, but wtf... buffalo (+9) 1 unit. i'm going to the game with a friend who is a UB grad, so this should be fun. only problem is siena has never had much of a home court advantage in the knick/pepsi/timesunion arena/center. the students...

    Poinsettia Bowl

    i think i'm going to the siena/buffalo basketball game tonight, so i gotta post now. tcu (-3) 2 units. only reason this isn't a stronger play? it seems like everybody is on tcu. that can't be good. under (46) 2 units. tcu's defense is great. and their offense is nothing to write home...

    New Orleans Bowl

    ok, i planned on posting every bowl game, but i had company yesterday and never got a chance to post the last 2 games. so 1-1 to kickoff the bowl season. troy (-4.5) 2 units. really close to 1 1/2 units. i definitely like the trojans here, as they had a very good season, almost punctuated...

    Saturday

    alright, i'm gonna play every bowl game. starting with the congressional bowl. the what? congress doesn't have enough to do; they're sponsoring a bowl game now? navy (+3) 1 unit. i've actually changed my mind on this game (which, of course, guarantees a loss). it looks like almost...

    Thursday NCAA

    just one play tonight... montana (+3) 1 unit. kinda scares me that the line is moving in the griz' favor, but i still like the play. riverside's game is defense and rebounding, which obviously require focus and intensity. well, their next game is chrismas eve in hawaii. i have to believe...

    WKU/Evansville

    thoughts on this game? am i missing something? evansville is 6-1, but lost to the only decent team they played (butler). according to sagarin, they've played the 282nd toughest schedule in the country. and their next game is at north carolina. the hilltoppers have already won at louisville...
