American football: NFL, NCAAF, CFL and Arena Football
Week 8 of the 2018 college football season features a couple of interesting matchups in the Pac-12, which has a highly competitive race after Oregon tied Washington atop the Pac-12 North. Alabama will once again take center stage against Tennessee, and a big game in the ACC between Clemson and North Carolina State. Before you […] More
For the first time in three weeks, our FCS plays failed to win you money. We had just two plays last week and split to go 1-1. South Dakota State had no trouble continuing to put up big numbers with a 36-7 win over Youngstown State, but the over in Chattanooga versus Western Carolina never […] More
I had a good feeling about picking the Arizona Cardinals coming into Thursday night’s game. David Johnson was due for a breakout rushing performance and the Denver Broncos looked like they might be ready to hit the sim button to the offseason. After nailing last Thursday’s final score to the decimal, I have to admit […] More

This week we have a fair share of MACtion, including what might be the best MAC game of the year, two Big Ten teams looking to make a statement and an SEC team hopeful to survive a home game against Tulsa. Here are college football’s biggest spread movements for Week 8: Buffalo at Toledo, Noon […] More
Don’t look now, but the NFL looks to have officially righted itself in Week 6. Teams everyone expected to be good when the year began that stumbled in September have pulled out of it. Other squads that looked like they could be in for promising, and maybe coach-saving seasons, have fallen back to earth. We […] More
A smart bettor knows to monitor line movements as the week goes along. Often when the bet is made is nearly as important as whom the bet is on. Clearly, we haven’t reached a point where one week can no longer sway bettors one way or another. Here are Week 7’s biggest spread moves and […] More
It was due to happen. After barely missing hitting a college football parlay in each of the past few weeks, my picks blew up in my face last week. Like a giant asteroid crashing down to the Earth, my plays left a massive crater and wiped out anyone who followed along. I went 0-3 against […] More
Another strong week for the college football underdog picks, with the dogs going 4-1 against the spread — with Rutgers missing by only 1.5 points — and a couple of straight-up wins as well. That’s a big step forward, but there’s still plenty of work to be done to get back to the .500 point […] More
To be a favorite in college football is a fleeting thing, unless of course you reside in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, where the Crimson Tide never seem to slip. The spreads grow so large than even mighty Alabama sometimes has trouble with them, but this past week the Tide was special in that area, too. Bama, which […] More
Who is overrated in the NFL? Who is underrated? Who is actually a reasonable contender and who is nothing more than a fake and a phony? It looks like the Los Angeles Rams are the team to beat in the NFC while the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots are the best in the […] More
