NFL Week 8

Atlanta Falcons +3 **2 Units
I know the Falcons have been bad this year, but they haven't been Arizona Cardinals bad. The Falcons still have Matt Ryan at the helm who has lead Atlanta to a 3rd ranked passing offence. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have given up over 30 points in their last 2 games. If the Falcons lose this one, Mike Smith might as well just pack his bags now.

Patriots/Dolphins Over 45
Main reason behind this pick: Tom Brady is due for a big game. Last week the Patriots got shafted by a bizarre overtime call that cost them the game. This week, the Patriots are at home, against a division rival... enter Tom Terrific. The Patriots overs have been hit or miss this year, but this week I think Belichick and the boys are going to come out flying at home.

Seattle Seahawks -12
Normally I hate big spreads in the NFL. These are professional athletes representing billion dollar organizations and it's a business, not a college party. Having said that, the St Louis Rams are hurting. Sam Bradford, who I think is inching closer and closer to "bust-status," has gone down and is out for the season. Now they have to play Seattle, a divisional opponent... with a spread under 2 tds, I like the Hawks.

NCAA WEEK 9

Rutgers -6.5
Ya want to know why the NFL is littered with Rutgers alumni? It's because they produce smart team players. Like years past, this squad is a smart team that knows how to control the ball and their offense can manage games. I love the spread vs a overrated Houston squad.

Oklahoma St -13.5
This isn't as much about the matchup as it is about the spread. Just breaking the top 25, I love that the cowboys have a spread under 2 tds. They don't want to be pushed out of the top 25 thanks to a bad Iowa St team. Look for them to punish their opponents and run the score tomorrow.

Missouri -3
These are two teams headed in the opposite direction. I really expected more out of SC but they have disappointed me pretty much all year. Missouri has an explosive offense and the gamecocks will not be able to keep up

NFL Week 7

Packers/Browns Over 45
The Pack are 4th in league passing yards and 5th in rushing yards. Their pass defence is not strong and Weeden has been surprisingly mediocre recently. As long as the Browns can put up a couple touchdowns, the Packers can do the rest.

Baltimore Ravens +1 **2 Units
There's something about the Raven that when they enter Heinz field, they step up their game. With only a 1 point spread, I like the Ravens to take this but expect a close game. These two teams are a great rivalry and they always bring their best games when they play each other.

San Fran 49ers -3.5
This line has been dropping all week and I can't figure out why. I love the Niners in this matchup regardless of where they are and how good the Titans are playing. Expect the San Fran D to pressure Fitzpatrick. On the offence, Frank Gore is back to bounding the ball and just in general the Niners are back to playing 49er football.

NCAA Week 8

Biggest NCAA play card yet this year so a little bit quicker write-ups. Here we go!

West Virginia +5.5
WV goes up against the 16th ranked Texas Tech this week. Texas has been on a roll and climbing up the offensive and defensive rankings, but that just may be their downfall this week. They haven't had to face a string opponent since week 3 when they beat TCU. I don't think Texas will know how to react in a close game. Look for WV to give em a tough game.

Baylor Over 76 (-115)
When there is a spread of 33 favouring a team, like Baylor this week, it;s hard not to consider the over. Iowa St. is not a strong team and Baylor is putting up points at will. On ESPN: PTI this past week, the boys discussed how this Baylor offence may be the best Baylor offence, EVER! Sorry RGIII.

Clemson +3 
Hands down, this is the game of the week. This is the one everyone has been waiting for, including the Clemson faithful. #5 Florida St. comes in to face the #3 Tigers. All year the Tigers haven't been given enough respect in the book and as an underdog in their own stadium, this week is no different. I love the Tigers at home, I have them to win straight-up.

South Carolina -8
Tennessee has been getting better and better, despite last week's tough loss to Georgia. With Clowney back, the Cocks are ready to feast on their opponents and climb back up that board. I think the biggest aspect of this game is Carolina's balanced offence, I can't see Tennessee stopping it.

Washington +3 
 Much like Clemson, Washington doesn't get enough respect. Sure they lost to Stanford and Oregon in their past two games, but who wouldn't!? I think they come out guns blazin against the Sun Devils and get back to winning. Before those two losses, they were 4-0 and the surprise of the SEC.

UCLA +5
After the Clemson game, this is the game that grabs my attention the most. But hey, Im a sucker for some good SEC ball. And that's what we'll get with this game. The 5-0 Bruins catch Stanford at a good time, having just lost an upset to Utah. Some may say last week was a fluke, but Stanford has some issues on the offence. Their passing offence is 89th in the league, sub-par at best. And their running game is 42nd. That's not up to SEC standards and the Bruins crush Stanford in those two stats by a mile. Take the big bad Bruins.  

NFL Week 6

Detroit Lions -3 (Even) **2 Units
Nope. Sorry, I don't buy it. Not the Browns, especially against the Lions. The Lions have emerged as an explosive offensive team thanks to the addition of Reggie Bush. Not because of his running game, but because he's huge a weapon out of the backfield for Stafford. He's an easy target out on the flanks who has the ability to open up a defence. Weeden is back under center as Hoyer is officially out. Unfortunate injury, but their cinderella story is over.

Green Bay Packers -3 (-105) ** 2 Units
Known as a prolific passing offense (fourth in the NFL), the Packers now have a running game to back it up (fifth in the NFL). For the Ravens, Flacco still does not impress me as a, self-proclaimed, elite quarterback. Eight interceptions and only five touchdowns.... moving on. Their defence is their backbone but even they have been average this year. It's the same strong Packers offence against the not so typical Ravens defence... Let's go cheese heads.

Cincinnati Bengals -7 (Even) 
The Bengals are coming off a wacky win over the Patriots, but maybe that's what they needed. The skill and coaching staff is there, but they just haven't been clicking. I believe that they needed an ugly win over a team like the Patriots to get them moving forward. The biggest mismatch here is the Bengals D versus the Bills offensive line. If they can rattle Brady enough to get him off his game, the Bills are in for a long day. Their pass rush is tenacious and the Bills will not stop it.

Indianapolis Colts -1 (Even)
Ummm. The Colts just knocked off the NFC's best, Seattle Seahawks, and the spread is only -1. What? The Colts have won three in a row, including victories over the Hawks and the 49ers. They are hitting their stride and the Chargers are in the wrong place at the wrong time this week. The Chargers defence is 27th against the pass and 24th against the run... again...WHAT!? Please take the Colts.

NCAA Week 7

So we've been having a solid season in NCAA so far with 6 consecutive winning weeks and today we're going to be making it 7.

Look for us to add plays later this afternoon, check back often!

Baylor -17 (-115) 1u
Baylor rolled last week and covered the large spread and we look for them to roll again this week. KSU isn't that much of a talented team and Baylor typically has more scoring in the latter half of the game since the starters go deeper into games. Look for them to cover.

Missouri +7 (-110) 2u
Not much to say here. We have a depleted Georgia team who have an extremely tough schedule this season and Mizzou has been showing that they are for real this season. Look for them to keep it extremely close and perhaps even steal the W here.

Wisconsin -10 (-110)
Northwestern lost an extremely tough game last week and now have to come in to Wisconsins barn and battle their tough road game. After two close losses, Wisconsin isn't going to sit and watch another oen get away from them. Watch them come out and dominate, scoring early and often. Like the Over in this situation as well but it'll remain a lean.

Best of luck everyone

NFL Week 5

We've been struggling in the past few weeks when it comes to the NFL and hope to turn it around this Sunday. We like a lot of plays on today's card so hopefully this is the turning point for our season! Because of the amount of plays, our write-ups will be a little different today. Quick and concise.

Kansas City -3 (-110)
-Efficient offense being run by Alex Smith, few turnovers.
-No Locker, Fitzpatrick doesn't bring the same type of energy to the Titans huddle.

New Orleans -1 (-110) **2 Units
-Surprisingly only a 1-point underdog.
-Offence too good for the bears, won't be able to keep up.
-Solid pass defense.

New York Giants -3 (+120)
-Bettors beware. Worth a look when you consider the odds.
-They can't go 0-16. Betting that this is their week.

Carolina -2 (-110)
-Arizona has not looked good. Lucky to get a win last week, only scoring 13 points.
-The Panthers have an underrated rushing game, solid against the run too.

San Diego -4.5 (-110) **2 Units
-Have been on a great run for us lately, hoping that it continues.
-Have a versatile passing attack. Rivers using all his weapons, especially out of the backfield.
-The Raiders defense is horrid.

NCAA Week 6

Quick post here, will try and update the write ups for the later games. Lets keep our strong NCAA plays going.

Mich st. +1.5 

Later games****

Georgia -12
Ever since their week 1 loss to Clemson, Georgia has been on a mission. They've put up over 40 points in their last three games and beating big teams like South Carolina and LSU. While Tennessee has a solid running game, their passing offence has been dismal, averaging only 154 yards a game. They simply won't be able to keep up with the Dogs.    

LSU -8
Miss St. showed their inexperience last week when they faced off against Alabama. While Miss has been in and out of the top 25 rankings for the first time in a while, teams like Bama and LSU thrive on the big stage. Much like last week, inexperience will be Miss State's downfall.
