One Bet, $100: Packers Will Pass By Struggling Chargers

The Packers-Chargers game is a study in two teams going in different directions. That is why with my One Bet, $100 I will be taking Green Bay and giving away 3.5 points. Last week I took the under in the Denver-Indianapolis game and covered easily. This week I’m equally confident […]

Kansas State-Kansas has been a one-sided rivalry for a decade, and should continue that trend on Saturday. That’s why I’m selecting Kansas State with this week’s One Bet, $100, and giving away six points. Last week was a disaster, and taught me once again that Wisconsin is not my friend. […]
