The 24-year-old rushed for 58 yards on 12 carries, including […]

In college football, big points spreads are always problematic for bettors, and Week 2 was no different. Alabama and Georgia both had lines of 50 or more points, and both failed to cover. Alabama, who is ranked second in the country according to the AP Top 25 poll, was a […]

Oakland had grown tired of the circus surrounding the talented All Pro, especially after Brown’s recent antics. […]
NFL Week 1 began on Thursday with Green Bay beating Chicago by a very Green Bay-Chicago kind of score, 10-3. While we can’t even begin to explain what oddsmakers were thinking when they set the over/under at 47, a little early disconnect between betting lines and on-field results should probably […]
Jay Gruden knows that he is basically coaching for his job this season with the Washington Redskins. And oddsmakers don’t believe he’ll make it to the end of the season. Gruden is the 3/1 favorite according to Bovada. Pat Shurmur of the New York Giants is next at 7/1, while […]
Jimmie Johnson needs a miracle to make NASCAR’s Monster Energy Cup Playoff, and the Brickyard might be the place for it to happen. Johnson, though, is a 60/1 longshot to win on Sunday. Kyle Busch is the favorite at 3/1. Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick are next at 6/1. The […]

We love Central Florida. We especially love Central Florida against the spread. In a new feature that debuts Thursday, I will be taking a $100 to the sportsbook every week of College Football, and placing it on one game. It might be the moneyline, or ATS, or possibly the over/under. […]

Florida’s slim victory over Miami didn’t impress voters of the AP Top 25 College Football Poll. They dropped the Gators from No. 8 to No. 11. Florida didn’t fare much better with the Coaches Poll, slipping from eighth to 10th. Week 1 of the college football season didn’t offer many […]
