2010 Auto Club 500 Predictions - February 19, 2010

The 2010 Sprint Cup Series got off to a bit of a shaky start last week at Daytona, as the race suffered two long delays thanks to a couple potholes. One guy that isn’t complaining is Daytona 500 winner Jamie McMurray, who captured his fourth career sprint cup win, and the second at Daytona International Speedway. Drivers now must get ready for the second race of the season, as the Sprint Cup Series heads out west for the 2010 Auto Club 500. This will be the first of two races that take place...

Bracket Buster Betting Trends - February 18, 2010

I’ve analyzed the last five years of the mid-February mid-major hoops orgy known as Bracket Buster Weekend to see if I could establish any useful betting angles or trends. Instead of working over every single “official” Bracket Buster game I squared my focus on the ones that featuring the mid-major conferences that were routinely wagered upon. That includes the Ohio Valley, Big West, Horizon, Missouri Valley, Metro Atlantic, Mid-American, Colonial, and Western Athletic. These are...

2010 WGC-Accenture Match Play Predictions - February 16, 2010

The 2010 WGC Accenture Match Play Championship is set to get underway this week, with first round action taking place on Wednesday. This event draws a lot of attention for its unique format that sets it apart from the rest of the tournaments during the season. Unlike tournament play each round is the deciding factor, as you will likely be out of the tournament with one poor performance. There is no doubt that there is a different feel to the tournament this year without Tiger Woods in the field,...

UNLV vs San Diego State - February 11, 2010

Oddsmakers always have to factor in the “bracket buster” teams when figuring out the NCAA Basketball Tournament Odds, and with UNLV’s history, it’s funny to think of them in this group. The Rebels are looking to get back to the big dance, but they stumbled at home against a conference rival, and now they’ll meet another Mountain West foe who is right on their heels when they head to San Diego State on Saturday night. UNLV vs San Diego State – Saturday, February 13, 4:00 PM ET The No.23...

Super Bowl 44 Betting Recap - February 10, 2010

- Whenever I talk to people before the Super Bowl they still all say the same thing, “I just hope it’s a good game.” It’s as if the blowouts of the late 80s and most of the 90s still have an impact on the expectations that people have for The Big Game. Well, those days are over. This is now three straight years that we have had games in which there were fourth quarter lead changes. And if you look back at the last 11 Super Bowls there were six that were decided by a touchdown or less and...

Super Bowl 44: Betting the Total - February 4, 2010

Check out betting the Super Bowl total for information on this year’s over/under for the big game! Apparently, defense isn’t allowed in the NFL anymore. This January we have seen a dizzying display of offensive artistry as points have been a-plenty through the 10 games that we’ve witnessed. And the two teams that have survived the splurging are – not surprisingly – the two best offensive clubs in the NFL, Indianapolis and New Orleans. The Colts and Saints meet at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday...
