American football: NFL, NCAAF, CFL and Arena Football
It was a wild start to the NFL season with surprise performances, elite individual performances and historic comebacks highlighting Week 1. Now the key is to tread a fine line between building off what we learned from Week 1 and making sure not to overreact as the focus shifts to Week 2. We took the […] 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. Week 2 and beyond won’t see as much movement as Week 1, but the first real football games of the year clearly had an effect on […] More
It was a nice weekend for the GMS underdog picks last week, and it was this close to being a great week. Fresno State had a trick-play interception in the end zone when it could have tied Minnesota late, and a Bulldogs victory there (or a loss by one if FSU had chosen to go […] More
Winner winner, chicken dinner. The second week of college football betting could not have gone much better for me.

It turns out I should have pleased both sets of Bulldogs as Mississippi State and Georgia each hammered their opponents. Mississippi State had little problem in a 31-10 win over Kansas State, and Georgia waxed […] More
NFL Week 1, as it often is, was kind of a disaster. It’s difficult to gauge what you see in the preseason, this last August especially since teams like the Los Angeles Rams and Dallas Cowboys barely, if ever, played their starters. You have to base a lot on gut feelings and your offseason grades […] More
Week 3 of the college football season is upon us and as we’ll see in this week’s odds, injuries are already having an impact.
