Maggiore’s 2012 Big 10 Bowl Picks

It is time for the Big Ten to kick off a bowl season where they are currently dogs in every game they are scheduled to play. It has not been a good year for the conference, but that does not mean there is not money to be made in betting these games. My “picks” for the Big Ten finished the season at a pretty good 23-10 record (69.7%). My “opinion” selections weren’t quite as successful...

Meineke Car Care Bowl – Texas Tech (-13) ove...

Meineke Car Care Bowl Texas Tech (-13) over Minnesota Before the season, I predicted the Golden Gophers to finish the Big Ten season with no wins in the conference. Minnesota was able to squeak out a pair of league wins, but to call them unimpressive would be an understatement. The Gophers are bowling only because of 4-0 nonleague mark. Minnesota’s 5 wins against FBS teams came against squads...

Bowl Games 2012: 5 upsets waiting to happen

Last Saturday we saw the start of the 2012 bowl season, and though both favorites won, only one covered. It took a miracle comeback by Arizona to beat Nevada in the New Mexico Bowl, but the Wildcats never got close to covering a 9 point spread. Below are 5 games where Trentmoney and I believe the underdog stands a good chance of winning their bowl game outright, and more importantly, where they...

2012 Poinsettia Bowl: BYU v San Diego State

2012 Poinsettia Bowl: UNDER 48.5 (1 unit) Only Bowling Green/San Jose State, TCU/Michigan State, Wisconsin/Stanford and the National Championship game between Notre Dame and Alabama have teams whose combined defensive red zone chances allowed are less than BYU & SDSU’s 5.55 chances per game. All 4 of those games have totals lined less than this game. BYU has the number 2 ranked defense in...

TSE 2012-13 Bowl Picks – Summary

The 2012 college football regular season at The Saturday Edge ended on a successful note. Overall we did very well hitting nearly 57% on over 500 wagers (289-221 = 56.67%). We had 10 winning weeks (out of 14 total) and at one point we had a six week winning streak. Definitely a good first year and I am quite convinced we can improve substantially on those numbers in year two. But first things...

Pezgordo’s 2012 Bowl Picks

Pezgordo’s 2012 Bowl Picks The 2012 bowl season has arrived. I hope that the boys and I can produce plenty of winners for everyone. I ended the 2012 regular season 85-71 (54.49%), certainly not the best season of my college football handicapping career, but a winning regular season nonetheless. On a brighter note, after reviewing all my weekly picks/threads, I discovered that I ended up...

2012 New Mexico Bowl: Nevada v Arizona

2012 New Mexico Bowl: Nevada +9.5 (1 unit) As most of you know I love wagering on underdogs, and (nearly) double digit dogs during the bowl season are doubly attractive, especially when the team laying the points has a defense that sucks.  It is pretty rare when a defense as bad as Nevada’s is statistically better than their opponents (or in this case no worse). The Wolfpack D allowed 417 ypg...
