1st Round Tournament Picks Analysis

Contrarian View On The NCAA Tournament 1st Round

I’m a big believer in looking at the past in order to predict the future, so I decided to take a look at last year’s 1st round games. One surprising trend was that favorites went 21-10 against the spread and #1 and #2 seeds were 5-3 against the spread as well. One game had a spread with a pick ‘em spread, which is why there are only 31 games being looked at here.

Handicapping Super Bowl XLIII Odds

Super Bowl Odds Breakdown

Wow going into the championship game weekend the super bowls odds are a little surprising to me. Right now Pittsburgh is the favorite at 3/2, second is Philly at 7/4, third is Baltimore at 7/2, and last is Arizona at 5-1. Really think that this should be flipped between 1st and 2nd because the Eagles beat up the Steelers earlier this year handing them there worst loss of the season.

NBA’s Best ATS Wagers

What’s funny about the NBA betting season is that good teams aren’t always great bets. We learned that the hard way with San Antonio last year, and they’re being even more stubborn this betting season. It’s clear that you stay away from San Antonio and Utah whenever they’re on the road, but who do you trust in this crazy NBA season?
