Shredding Football Season

I’m not a professional sports gambler, but I like to dabble in college and NFL picks.  I like basketball and baseball, but football takes up less time as the games are (mostly) consolidated to two days.  Having said that, I’m having a pretty good year (yes, I’m tooting my own horn) with my picks challenge with The Turd, but I’m having a much better season when I play the games for real.  If you follow my tumblr, you’re already in the know.

I’m not saying that I’m a guru and that you should copy my picks, but I’m just stoked to be off to an amazing start to the football season.  Here’s a look at the first two weeks of the year.  Bets are one unit unless noted.

Yesterday

  • Titans -6.5 over Raiders – Love going against West Coast teams traveling east. WIN
  • Steelers +1 over Falcons – Difficult going into Pitt.  Only went 1/2 unit here. WIN
  • Packers -3 over Eagles – Eagles have too many variables.  This is a 7 point game in 3 weeks. WIN
  • 7 point teaser – Pats +2, Jags +4, Browns +10, Dolphins +4, Steelers +8.5.  I swore of teaser/parlays last year, but they’re too fun for me.  I love the action.  This pays 3.5 to 1. WIN

Saturday

  • Miami +8 at Ohio St. LOSS
  • Cal -10 home to Colorado WIN
  • Michigan at Notre Dame Under 53 WIN
  • San Jose State at Wisconsin -40 LOSS
  • Penn State at Alabama -12 WIN

Last Week

  • Ohio St -27.5 (paid for 1/2 point) WIN
  • Pitt +140, half unit LOSS
  • 7 point teaser Northwestern/Vanderbilt Over 34 , TCU -6, Wisconsin -13 WIN
  • UCLA at Kansas St -2 WIN

So, for the first two weeks of football season I’m 9-3 overall with a +8 units!  That will probably come back to reality at some point, although I had a great NFL season last year before I kept track of such things.  As you’re noticing, I’m keeping track of everything now.

EAST10 is still good for a $10 free bet at bet revolution until 9/17.  Peep it if you need a home.
