    Was looking at Jacksonville, and I got the brilliant idea to check how teams have done the week after playing at Denver. Teams are 0-7 ATS (1-6 SU) the week after playing at Denver.

    12/27 Bowls

    I'll try to stay ahead of these games, but I don't like my chances. I'm going to skip the Army game, because we can't bet NY teams here in NY. So that'll help. Hell, we might even lose power. We're getting a good amount of snow. Hopefully the GF doesn't want to go anywhere tomorrow, so I...

    12/26 Bowls

    I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas. We had a slight change in plans, so I don't know if I'll get to all 3 Saturday bowls. And I'm certainly fucked for Saturday, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. Anyway, our plan was to go see Zootopia today. But then the GF said she also...

    Hawai'i Bowl

    Hey, Merry Christmas, everyone! It feels like every year Hawai'i is bowl-eligible, they end up in... the Hawai'i Bowl. Go figure. Nick Rolovich, who probably wishes he never left Hawai'i for the Washington St job a few years ago, returns to Oahu as the interim HC for Cal. He is 2-1 in Bowl...

    12/23 Bowls

    Boca Raton Bowl Ok, first it was Macys, now it's... ETSY???!!! I mean, the algorithm knows how to get my attention. But this is getting ridiculous. And that's the highlight of my Boca Raton write-up. This game is a complete clusterfuck. There are just too many question marks to recommend...

    Potato Bowl

    Do not adjust your sets... the turf really IS blue. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Classic. I'm a fan of Aggies coach Bronco Mendenhall. But it is his first year at Utah St. The Cougars brought in over 70 new players this year, but still only lost one PAC12 game this year and routed Oregon St in the PAC12...

    12/20 Playoff Games

    Quick reminder... not an official "posted" play, but i did bet illinois st tonight. grabbed 'em as early as i could and got +105. Ok, I'm getting a late start, but hopefully this won't take too long, as I already know who I'm on in this first game. Well, to be specific, I know who I'm betting...

    12/19 Bowls

    Myrtle Beach Bowl Right off the rip, we have the Kennesaw HC in his first season on the job. Strike one against them. Although it's the program's first bowl game, so extra motivation there. Near as I can tell, Kennesaw St has no significant opt-outs. Both starting CBs (Washington and Offord)...

    Xbox Bowl

    first, a reminder why you always gotta double (or triple) check opt-out info. covers.com lists Cash Hudson as the Arkansas St Center. Anyway... Cash Hudson is, in fact, the starting Center for Missouri St. and he's the only notable opt-out tonight. Ok, I typed that 45 minutes ago, and now...

    12/17 Bowls

    Cure Bowl anybody know what they're actually trying to cure? is it the epidemic of bowl opt-outs? 'cause i'd donate to find a cure. (oh, not an opt-out, but despite all my work on last night's game, i never saw ANYTHING about cook even possibly being out for jax st. that was such a pleasant...

    ISIS Salute to Veterans Bowl

    hmmmm... that's odd. lemme check... ok, sorry. it's the IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl. as usual, let's start with who's NOT playing. troy - CB kaleno levine has declared for the draft and won't play. starting RB tae meadows is out. he averaged 4.4 yards/carry for a team that doesn't run...

    LA Bowl

    bowl season? seriously? ok, gonna start with an FCS selection. no extra charge to you! i like illinois st on the ML (+125). maybe this one is too easy, even with all the travel for the redbirds. the box score for their win last week at the fargodome (as 25-point dogs) is ridiculous. the...

    For the record

    The INT that led to Ohio State's only TD... should have been a penalty on Ohio St. Sure, the announcers were correct... you can't have DPI behind the line of scrimmage. But you can have defensive holding. And... yeah. The officials FUCKED Indiana.

    One of the greatest obits I've ever seen

    I didn't know Jim, but I wish I did. SCHENECTADY - James "Jim, Jimmy" W. Hourigan passed away on November 16, 2025, following a lengthy and complicated relationship with gravity, that finally took a turn for the worse. He handled every fall the same way he handled life, with grit, humor, and...

    Breeders Cup

    it's too damn quiet in here. figured i'd jot down some thoughts. 6th - WIDE open. i've got 6 horses within a length of each other, and a few more just behind them. going with the 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9. i have the 9 slightly fastest, and she gets 3 lbs from the boys, but she'll have her work cut...

    If you like teasers

    just some general info, and based on a sample size of one book. but i've noticed that you get a better price when building the teaser yourself. sometimes much better. say you like the over in both games tonight and want to tease them (7 points). you get: but if you build it yourself, you...

    Saturday 9/13

    don't usually post much before bowl season, but just saw this and figured i'd throw it out there while it's 14.5. texas st (+14.5) first of all, my plan is to bet against arizona st this year until they give me a good reason not to. and this one shapes up nicely. even though az st beat...
