2019 NFL Week 5 – Betting Picks Against Spread

baker mayfield cleveland browns dottedI finished 8-7 against the spread with my picks last week.

The Miami Dolphins are on bye week, but we still have our fair share of double-digit point spreads this week. 

The Browns finally lived up to the hype last week when they beat the Ravens 40-25. They face the Niners on Monday Night and are actually 3.5-point underdogs. Can the Browns score an underdog win in the Bay Area?

Will any backup quarterbacks lead their teams to a cover this week?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

2019 College Football Picks Against the Spread Week 5 NCAA USC Trojans song girls cheerleadersI went 14-10-1 against the spread last week.

The college football landscape looks and feels a little different now that we saw the outcome of the Georgia/Notre Dame and Wisconsin/Michigan games. We can probably write off Michigan being any sort of Big Ten championship contender after that poor performance.

We are also making a shortlist of potential Heisman candidates. No one is running away with it yet, but conference play is just getting started. We should be able to cross off a few guys after this week.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 5 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (September 28th,, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

jacoby brissett dotted 2019I finished 10-6 against the spread with my picks last week.

I’m really liking some of the nail biting fourth quarters this season. There have been so many point spreads covered late in games. It just didn’t happen much last year. 

There were two 20+ point spreads last week (only one covered), but there aren’t any near that level this week. The Dolphins are huge underdogs (again), but they are only sixteen-point underdogs against the Chargers this week.

Can rookie quarterbacks Kyler Murray and Gardner Minshew lead upsets this weekend?

Was Daniel Jones just a one-week wonder?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

2019 College Football Picks Against the Spread Week 4 NCAA Wisconsin Badgers cheerleadersI started off strong this year and have stumbled a bit the last two weeks. I’m still over .500 on the year with the conference schedule starting for most teams this week.

There are some big Big Ten and SEC games this week. The Wisconsin/Michigan game is probably the marquee contest in the Big Ten this week. Michigan haven’t looked like the usual juggernaut and could be prime for a beating. In the SEC, Texas A&M/Auburn contest will be the one to watch.

2019 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Saquon Barkley dottedI finished 8-8 against the spread with my picks last week.

The slew of quarterback injuries have affected the point spreads quite a bit. On top of that, there’s a huge point spread in every Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots games. There are actually two point spreads this week greater than 21 points. That usually doesn’t happen until like Week 16, at the earliest.

Can the Patriots and Cowboys both cover a massive 21+ point spreads this week?

Can rookie quarterbacks Daniel Jones and Gardner Minshew lead their teams to covers in Week 3?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

2019-College-Football-Picks-Against-the-Spread-Week-3-NCAA-Iowa-Hawkeyes-cheerleadersI started off strong this year and but just went 12-12-1 against the spread last week.

The key to staying hot while betting college football game is to not get too bogged down on the last week’s games. It’s important to stick with your own personal rankings and know when to bail on a team. Well, after the first couple weeks of the season, it is about time to think about jumping off a bandwagon. There won’t be much value on teams that are perceived to be unbeatable. You may have another week or two to ride them before the value disappears.

2019 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Lamar Jackson dotted funnyThe first week of the 2019 NFL regular season is in the book. I finished 8-8 against the spread with my picks. I wasn’t burned too much by late-game comebacks as much as most as my picks mostly benefited from the late-game heroics last week.

A few young players had breakout games last week. Ravens QB Lamar Jackson had a perfect passer rating and shut up critics that he can only scramble. Can he continue the same success against the Cardinals this week?

Can the Patriots cover a massive -18.5 point spread against the brutal Dolphins?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started off strong this year and went 17-7-1 against the spread last week.

There aren’t a ton of marquee games this week. College football athletic directors know that most people are more geared up for the NFL season to begin this weekend. There are a ton of games where FBS teams take on easy wins against a small FCS schools.

There were a few notable upsets last week, but all the major players made it out of their games unscathed. Can Wisconsin and Michigan cover their huge point spreads this weekend?

2019 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

The first week of the 2019 NFL regular season is here!

I finished last season over .500 with my NFL picks against the spread. I hope to continue my streak of profitable NFL picks this season.

This year’s rookie class of quarterbacks isn’t as good as last year’s crop. There were so many rookie quarterbacks that saw action early last season, but it appears that Arizona’s QB Kyler Murray will be the lone rookie to start in Week 1.

I love a lot of the favorites this week. I almost feel wrong for making so many ‘chalk’ picks, but I still found a few underdogs picks to sink my teeth into.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 1 Betting Picks Against Spread

I am so ready for the college football to begin!

This offseason saw a bunch of head coaching changes and WAY more transfers than any other year that I can recall. I’m all for college kids to be able to go somewhere for a fresh start without any punishment, so I hope this is the new norm.

The same teams are expect to contend for a College Football Playoff spot. Clemson, Alabama, Georgia and Oklahoma are the consensus four-best teams right now. Will all four make the CFP at the end of the year?

Soccer Betting Tips – For Serious Money Makers!

If you base your betting activities on soccer-based markets, you must be aware of the fact that these markets present very good value to a keen and analytical mind. Soccer (more commonly referred to as football) is the most popular sport in the world and that in itself shows you why it presents a keen gambler with a good earning opportunity.  Whatever draws you into football gambling, the following guidelines will enable you to maximize your earnings:

Learn to find value

Every odd you see on a website has an intrinsic value but the concept of value is lost on most gamblers. When a bookmaker picks an odd, sometimes it is not a true reflection of the actual probability of that event happening; it could be motivated by market sentiment. Your job as a smart gambler is to look for the odds that have been incorrectly valued (based on good analysis of the actual game) and work with them. You will find that those hidden value gems will sometimes go against the grain. You will, therefore, need to train yourself to stand your ground and avoid being overwhelmed by gambler sentiment.
