Today is the beginning of the sports year. Once September hits its football season and it goes until there is a NBA Champion. We are going to be pounding picks Thursday-Monday throughout the year. I guarantee at least one play on each of those days until June. With a guarantee on Saturday and Sunday that I will give out a Total, Teaser, and Spread pick. No locks in this thing but each play will have different unit sizing. Giving a variety of picks to choose from seems like the best way to do this thing. This is the best time of the year and I want to make sure I get as much winning action as possible.
I am just a wannabe sharp bettor just like everyone else. I want to think I know more than most but really I just love watching and betting on sports. I mean who doesn’t? It’s the best thing in the world and nothing beats it. Nothing beats waking up and betting on sports all day. Nothing. Each day I will post it will be a simple post like this one with a thought process, some stats, and then the pick. I hope everyone has a wonderful sports year and may the Gambling Gods be with us all.
Record 0-0
Northern Arizona University vs Under 52 1U (-115)
This is the best play on the board. NAU beat Arizona last year and played it in a low scoring fashion. I expect a similar situation here. I think NAU doesn’t score a lot in this game but their defense steps up. Chris Ball is a defensive minded coach and I think he has prepared this team to stop ASU. ASU is starting Florida transfer Emory Jones and this is great for the under. A new QB means a lot of miscommunication and a learning curve where he won’t be able to drop 50 on this team. I think Herm Edwards has some class against a smaller school in the state and doesn’t drop 50 on them. Final Score Prediction: 35-6
Stats That Matter:
Under is 4-1 in the Sun Devils last 5 games in September.
Under is 5-0 in the Sun Devils last 5 vs. Big Sky
Under is 4-0-1 in the Sun Devils last 5 home games.
The total has gone under in 6 of Arizona State’s last 7 games played in week 1.
