The LOL Jets strike again. The New York Jets nearly blew an inside track to the #1 pick in the NFL Draft by securing their first win of the season, but a costly blitz on the final play of the game secured a comeback 31-28 victory for the Las Vegas […]
Monday Night Football features a unique doubleheader in Week 13 with Washington (4-7) visiting the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers (11-0), and the Buffalo Bills (8-3) playing the San Francisco 49ers (5-6) in Arizona. It wouldn’t be the NFL’s pandemic season without a couple of extra primetime games to accommodate the rescheduling […]
A college football season that continues to be the most physically and mentally challenging in a century just got stickier for the Big Ten. News leaked this weekend that conference athletic directors are willing to change eligibility rules to squeeze No. 4 Ohio State into the championship game. On Saturday, […]
The 2020 NFL season may be best remembered not for the action on the field, but for broken pandemic protocols, teams forced to play while sick and with limited personnel, teams forced out of their home facilities, and attempts to figure a way to make something so abnormal seem normal […]
In a year where every college football team still standing is bowl eligible, the number of games for them to play in is shrinking daily. Bowl cancellations started in earnest this week. The inflection point came on the West Coast, where COVID-19 cases are spiking to untenable highs and a […]
If gamblers don’t think Nick Saban circled the Alabama-LSU game on his calendar, they don’t know the Crimson Tide head coach very well. Losing at home to the Tigers last year was bad enough, but getting taunted by LSU head coach Ed Orgeron and his players let that defeat simmer […]
The first Saturday in December sees a massive 14-game slate on DraftKings (which would have been 15 before the postponement of Coastal Carolina-Liberty). Most of the blue bloods appear to be in likely romps, and their players are priced up accordingly. The salary levels seem to favor more mid-tier players […]
The NFL playoffs are only five weeks away and several bubble teams are facing must-win scenarios in Week 13 to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans, a pair of 8-3 teams, are the marquee game this week. The LA Rams and Arizona Cardinals also meet […]
One of the few remaining bright spots in what is best described as a COVID-19-fractured college football season is Saturday’s marquee Top-25 matchup, No. 10 Indiana at No. 18 Wisconsin. The Big Ten, arguably the most affected conference when it comes to the pandemic, has a sleeper in the upstart […]
For the first time in the College Football Playoff era, two non-Power 5 conference teams with 9-0 or better records will meet when BYU faces Coastal Carolina on Saturday. The Cougars, who are 9-0 and ranked No. 8 in the AP Top-25 poll, managed to fill a vacancy in their […]
Behold! The NFL playoff hunt begins! Seven AFC teams will advance to the postseason with three wild-card spots available, and three teams sitting on the bubble: the Las Vegas Raiders, Baltimore Ravens, and the New England Patriots. The undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers (11-0) have yet to lose a game and top […]
Since news broke Monday that the University of Michigan football team would pause “in-person activity†due to a rash of positive COVID-19 tests, social media has lit up with speculation that the Wolverines’ effort to ensure the safety of its players, coaches, and staff is just a way to get […]
We get a 12-game DFS slate for Week 13 of the NFL season, with players like Russell Wilson, Dalvin Cook, and Devante Adams topping the salary lists. If you want a piece of those guys, you’ll need to save some money by drafting players like these guys. Salvon Ahmed, Dolphins […]
With the Matt Patricia era over in Detroit, players and fans want to know who the next head coach of the Lions will be. Management seems to be in no hurry to replace Patricia, and will probably have to hire a general manager first since Bob Quinn was let go […]
NFL Week 13 betting lines came out Sunday and three teams are favorites of 10 or more points. Kansas City and Pittsburgh were expected to be double-digit picks, but few expected Miami to open at 10.5 at home against Cincinnati. Bettors didn’t even think that was enough. They leaned heavy […]
Alabama, Clemson, and Notre Dame are used to having big point spreads, but the lines for the trio’s Saturday games are some of the biggest they’ve seen all season. The Week 14 betting lines for the three are only increasing as the week wears on. Alabama, the No. 1 team […]
It would probably be wise to keep the sharp objects away from the bettor who wagered $500,000 on Seattle against Philadelphia on Monday Night Football, then watched in horror as he suffered the worst bad beat in recent memory. The unidentified gambler placed the half-million-dollar wager at BetMGM Monday afternoon, […]
The NFL will finally play its third Thanksgiving game between the Baltimore Ravens and the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday at 3:40 pm ET. Six days late. For only the third time in history, the NFL scheduled a game on Wednesday because of a coronavirus outbreak within the Baltimore Ravens […]
Nothing went right for NFL Week 12 bettors as the teams backed by gamblers lost or failed to cover the spread, with losses punctuated by several six-figure wagers. BetOnline reported that the New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders had some of the heaviest action from gamblers. At BetMGM, 98% […]
The most anticipated question of NFL Week 12 was how Denver practice squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton would do at quarterback for the Broncos. Hinton, who was a backup signal-caller at Wake Forest, had to step in when Denver’s three QBs couldn’t play after being put on the reserve/COVID-19 list. […]
