FREE NBA PICKS FOR DECEMBER 28, 2009

Greetings. We are closing the 2009 portion of the season in winning style. Our season ATS record stands at 106-88-5. Of that, our locks are 3-2-1. We know it is not where we need to be, but we are winning each night. 7 Games on the docket tonight. This is what we like:

 

LOCKS

Thunder @ Nets +6: The Nets are making a habit of getting blown out this year. Of their 28 losses, only 9 have been by fewer than 10 points. They are a joke of a team right now. The Thunder will win their third straight. Take the Thunder and give the points.

 

PICKS

Bucks @ Bobcats -4.5: Bobcats are a completely different team at home (24-11 ATS in their last 35 home games) and they love Monday night games (9-2 ATS in their last 11). However, we still aren’t buying that they are a good team. Brandon Jennings has come down to reality as of late, but we like them to cover. They match-up well with the Bobcats. Take the Bucks and the points.

 

Wizards @ Grizzlies -5.5: We love the Wizards’ D in this game. We think they match-up well against the Grizzlies. Don’t be surprised in Washington wins outright. Take the Wizards and the points.

 

Lakers @ Suns +1: The Lakers have dominated this match-up as of late and look to build some momentum after their overtime win against the Kings. The Lakers are exactly what the Suns hate-a large and athletic team that plays well together. That is the recipe for beating the Suns. The Suns are off one of their worse performances of the season last time out. Even without Artest, the Lakers will still get the best of them. Take the Lakers and give the point.

Nuggets @ Kings +2: The Nuggets have been terrible since Chauncey Billups injured his groin. However, the Kings will probably be without Tyreke Evans and Sean May tonight. Those are bigger losses. Take the Nuggets and give the points.

 

76ers @ Trail Blazers -6: The 76ers have dominated this match-up as of late and they should get Iverson back tonight. The Blazers have been hot-covering in their last 4 games. We don’t think it will be 5 straight tonight. Take the 76ers and the points.

Celtics @ Warriors +6: The Celtics are one of the best road teams in the league, but they have not done well when visiting the Warriors. Still, they play outstanding D. The Warriors are hot off their pounding of a Suns team that played no D whatsoever. Tonight will be different. They will get all the D they can handle tonight. Take the Celtics and give the points.

 

Road team sweep for us tonight. That hasn’t happened before, but we are sticking with our system.

 

Good Luck,

Maaco Las Vegas Bowl: BYU versus Oregon State (-2.5): Rodgers and Rodgers hit the strip!

Nothing like starting the bowl season 0-3. We took a beating this past weekend and were not even close. Of course we jinxed ourselves with the damn defense holding teams under 100 yards rushing guarantee. That guarantee is now worth a pile of shiznit! RPJ Betting $yndicate really knows how to pick bowl games!

Maaco Las Vegas Bowl: BYU versus Oregon State (-2.5) - This game will be a whole hell of a lot of fun. The Las Vegas Bowl usually is. Runny’s favorite player in all of NCAA football is Jacquizz Rodgers. That little man can play. He is a lot bigger and stronger than people think. Think Maurice Jones-Drew Part II. This game has a couple of story lines. 1) Will the BYU players be able to bring their children to Sin City? If they are not, will it impact their play? 2) How many pairs of magic underwear will the BYU fan base soil in Sin City? Will they have learned their lesson that Crazy Horse II and Spearmint Rhino are not petting zoos? We are not sure. There could be a run on magic underwear and that could lead to unnecessary chaffing. 3) Which team will be more pumped up to play in this game? BYU beat Utah to end their season but BYU seems to live at the Las Vegas Bowl. Oregon State lost in the Civil War and lost their chance at the Rose Bowl. Will the Beavers be pumped up to play this bowl game. The one thing we like is that Oregon State is smart enough to motivate their team and are talking about using this game as a 2010 Heisman launch for Runny’s boy Jacquizz. We think this game will be close and we think top to bottom, Oregon State has more talent and a more motivated coach. Look for a high scoring affair, look for the Rodgers Bros to go bananas and look for one hell of a fun game. We are taking Oregon State to win and cover!!!

Week 14 Free NCAA Winning Picks: Elin Nordegren is about to be $300 Million Richer, We Help Her Bet NCAA Football

What an amazing week in sports with the whole Tiger Woods fiasco. Looks like this guy got more poon than a porn set. To quote Chris Rock, “A man is only as faithful as his options!” Man does that hold true with this story. Elin is better looking than the string of infidels that Tiger bedded. Check her out:

We also hope that the rumors of her beating his ass are true because we are hoping she overtakes Tawny Kitaen as our favorite athlete beater. Chuck Finley could finally get some rest!!! Well it will come as no surprise that we are dedicating this post to Tiger, Elin and his gaggle of ho-bags and we will of course pick some winning NCAA football games. We are not in love with our record this season but for all of our fans you know this has been our best season on record so we will take it. We hope we made you some killer coin on the season. RPJ $yndicate’s record on the season is 92-78-3 and we are going to make some more money this weekend.

Ohio at Central Michigan (-13) - Just wanted to point something out in case you have not been loyal followers of our picks. Central Michigan is the #2 cover team in the entire nation at 9-2 ATS. Dan LeFevour is one of the best players in the country. The Fever has the following stats: 71% completion, 2,787 passing yards, 25 TDs to 5 INTs, 652 yards rushing at 4 yards per rush and 14 rushing TDs. Yes, he is responsible for 39 TDs on the season. Tim Tebow on the other hand is only responsible for 20 TDs, Suck on that Tebow bible pounders. Just to show that we are not total homers and willing to break away from our man crush, Central Michigan has a far superior offense in general and we do not think Ohio will be able to keep up. The Chips run for more than 55 yards more per game, more than a full yard per rush, pass for more yards, convert offensive third downs 17% better (50% vs. 33%) and on defense The Chips are better against the run and about even against the pass. Chips win the game. We are not going to mess with a good thing. We are betting Central Michigan to win and cover!!!

Ohio

The Yes we are Actually Betting These Retarded Games - If you have followed out impressive winning streak session, you know that we pull some of the games right out of our arses. We do not tell you why we are betting them nor do we give you any insight and more times than not these games hit for big wins. Here are our idiotic games of the week.
The sweet smell of money!!!

The sweet smell of money!!!

San Jose State at Louisiana Tech (-23.5) - We are taking Louisiana Tech to win and cover. Just ask Boise State how hard it is to play in the Bayou light.
Florida Atlantic at Florida International (-2) - We are calling for the upset. Our money is on FAU. The FAU defense is bad but FIU’s is not much better. The difference is on Offense. FIU is flat out terrible; ranked 107th in the nation and FAU is actually 21st; the second best team in the state.

Last Chance to Bet the Best Cover Team in the Country
South Florida at UCONN (-7) - The UCONN Huskies are 10-1 ATS this season. We have had the pleasure of betting them a few times and we will continue to ride these guys. A round of applause again for winning at Notre Dame. We always have the rule of not messing with a team of destiny. When UCONN lost their teammate Jasper Howard, they immediately became a team of destiny. UCONN did lose three in a row after Jazz went down but they were to 47-45 to Cincy, 28-24 to Rutgers and 28-24 to West Virginia. They could have won all of these games. Now they are on a roll beating Notre Dame and pounding Cuse last weekend and we are going to stay on them. These teams have similar stats that we look at but UCONN gets the nod for being the hotter team and playing at home. South Florida is coming off a rough sandwich stretch where they got pounded by Miami and Rutgers with a win against Louisville int he middle. UCONN is the team of destiny!!! We are betting UCONN to win and cover!

The Sec Championship Game
Alabama versus Florida (-5) - You want to know something funny. We are using the same logic for this game as we used for the FAU/FIU game. These two teams are really similar on defense with Bama having a slight edge. The difference though is on offense. Check out these comparisons:
Rushing yards per game: Florida = 236.7 Alabama = 213.1
Yards per rush: Florida = 5.6 Alabama = 5.2
Passing yards per game: Florida 214.7 Alabama = 194.5
Offensive third down conversions: Florida = 50% Alabama 37.7%
That last stat right there is reason enough to be comfortable with a TD line. Alabama has no offense. We also think Mark Ingram, Jr. is injured and not 100%. We expect him to play but will he be the workhouse that ground down South Carolina and the like, HELL NO!!! Then we have Tim Tebow, do you expect him to lose this game? We do not. He is touched by God. Then we have the coaches. Urban Meyer wins everywhere and more importantly wins the big game. Nick Saban wins games but does not win THE game. Just ask him what it was like to play Utah last year in a BCS bowl game. Saban is talking about using trick and gimmick plays this week to play against Florida. You are a little too late clown. Florida has NFL players across the board on D and will not fall for shenanigans. This line was Florida -10 last season and we are surprised it is not hat high again. Anything less and we are all over Florida. We are taking Florida to win and cover!

Free NCAA Football Week 13 Winning Picks: Saturday’s List of Winners Part II: Rivalry Edition

Well we smoked it last week, 14-7 to be exact, when we simply picked a ton of games and listed our winners. We are not going to argue against the betting gods so here is our list of winners part II. We love rivalry week!

Saturday, November 28, 2009

Rivalry week games that mean absolutely nothing

Southern Miss at East Carolina (-6) - We are picking Southern Miss to cover. Might even take the money line for a few.

Central Florida at UAB (+3) - We are picking Central Florida to win and cover.

Troy (-9.5) at UL-Lafayette - We are picking Troy to win and cover.

New Mexico State at San Jose State (-11.5) - We are picking New Mexico State to cover.

Navy (-9.5) at Hawaii - We are picking Navy to win and cover.

The How the Mighty have Fallen Rivalry Games: Disappointing year for the Sooners and Trojans.

Oklahoma State at Oklahoma (-8) - We are going to bet this game at the last possible minute. The line is not necessarily reflective of what we are going to get the line at because the wise guys will be doing exactly what we are going to do. Here is the scenario: a) we will bet Oklahoma if Zac Robinson is clearly not healthy or not playing and b) we will bet Oklahoma State if Zac Robinson is 100% healthy and starting. Just so you know, Zac is questionable with a head injury and we think he is unlikely to be 100% healthy.
UCLA at USC (-13) - We are picking USC to win and cover!
Best of the Rest Traditional Rivalry Games

North Carolina (-5.5) at NC State - We are picking UNC to win and cover.

Clemson (-3) at South Carolina - We are picking Clemson to win and cover.

Ole Miss (-7.5) at Mississippi State - We are picking Ole MIss to win and cover.

Vriginia Tech (-16) at Virginia - We are picking Virginia Tech to win and cover.

Last chance to mock Notre Dame in the Regular season Game!

Notre Dame (-10) at Stanford - We nailed that UCONN cover last week and this week will probably be worse for The Irish. Harbaugh and the Tree will be mad that they lost last week and will look to pound Notre Dame before heading off to whatever bowl game will have them. Also, adding insult to the whole thing was that The Tedford Turd Sandwiches were the team that knocked Stanford out of the Rose Bowl hunt must really hurt. We are calling it out on Karma. Harbaugh was a douche going for two, up 47-21 with 6 minutes to go against USC and one week later he gets beat by a mediocre Cal team. Serves Stanford right. Back to the task at hand and that is beating Notre Dame. Stanford has a great rushing attack and one of the best RBs in the nation. Notre Dame could not stop a pee wee team. The Irish give up 160 yards per game on the ground and let rushers get 4.6 yards per carry. We will enjoy watching Charlie Weis lose his last game for the Irish. Isn’t it great to see a Notre Dame team as more than 7 point dawgs to freakin Stanford. We love college football!  We are betting Stanford to win and cover in this game.

FREE NBA PICKS FOR NOVEMBER 19, 2009

Greetings. Back-to-back terrible nights for us. We went 3-5 ATS on Tuesday and followed it up with a 6-6 night. Not a losing night (except for the vig), but not even in the same area code of where we need to be. With that, our season record ATS stands at 43-34-1. Here is what we like tonight:

Suns @ Hornets +8: The Suns must be looking forward to rollin’ into the Big Easy right now. Especially Steve Nash who will not have to put up with Chris Paul on either side of the ball. This is HUGE for this match-up. With CP3 in the line-up, this is a much different team. It will free-up Nash on both sides of the ball. Phoenix are terrible on their last few Thursday games (5-17 ATS in their last 22) and against the Hornets (2-8 ATS in their last 10 meetings). However the head-to-head stat, we think, is a product of CP3. Now that he is out, this is a different game. The only injury the Suns have is Robin Lopez. This won’t be a factor. Take the Suns and give the points.

Beware Hornets!! If All Else Fails, The Suns Will Resort to Groping to Get Us a Cover!!!!

Beware Hornets!! If All Else Fails, The Suns Will Resort to Groping to Get Us a Cover!!!!

Jazz @ Spurs -5: The home team (19-7 ATS in their last 26 meetings) and favorite (19-7 ATS in their last 26 meetings) has a huge advantage in their series as of late. Both teams are off games last night with the Jazz travelling into San Antonio for tonight’s game. The Spurs are off a tough loss to the Mavericks in Dallas last night. That game showed us that the Spurs cannot beat good teams with just Tim Duncan alone. It is too much to ask. Tonight, there is a good chance he rides solo again as Ginobili is out and there is a good chance Tony Parker will not play. Not good for the Spurs. Deron Williams is getting his legs back underneath him, and he looked great last night. That will be the key to this game-the Jazz bring way too many healthy weapons to the court. They may not win, but they will cover. Take the Jazz and the points.

Although He Won't Be Playing Tonight, His Annoying Style of Play Will Still Manage to Anoy Us From the Bench! The Flop Will Not Cover!!!!

Although He Won't Be Playing Tonight, His Annoying Style of Play Will Still Manage to Annoy Us From the Bench. The Flop Will Not Cover!!!!

Bulls @ Lakers -9.5: Game two for the Bulls on their annual circus road trip. They spanked the Kings in game one. Tonight they get a much harder opponent in the Lakers. The Lakers have struggled as of late, but they seemed to turn it around last time out against the Pistons. They get a HUGE lift tonight as Pau Gasol is scheduled to return. He poses huge problems for the Bulls. He will be the key along with the Lakers front court. They will have too much for the Bulls. We are going against the grain a little on this-most of the significant ATS numbers scream take the Bulls. Take the Lakers and give the points.

As always, good luck with your picks.

NBA PICKS FOR NOVEMBER 18, 2009

Greetings folks. We had a terrible night last night with a 3-5 record. It is our first losing night in over a week. We have had a good run as of late, but we know another 3-5 night can happen at any point and we need to stay focused. The 3-5 night brings our season ATS record to 37-28-1. That is not even close to where we need to be (our goal is 65%). So, back to work….here is what we like tonight:

Cavs @ Wizards +5: The Cavs are just not covering and they are pretty banged up. Shaq is out again and there is a good chance no Anderson Varejao tonight. Even without them in the line-up, they are a good team, but this will be a tough road game. Washington has played the Cavs well in recent years and the Dog is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings. This game will come down to Agent 0 and whether he has learned to follow his instincts like he did in the past. He has been a tentative player and if the Wizards are to keep this game close, they need to Agent 0 that drives to the basket and plays instinctively. We think he will do it tonight. Plus, the Wizards may be getting Antawn Jamison back tonight for the 1st time during the regular season. Take the Wizards and the points.

Agent 0 Sees A Win In His Future Tonight and So Do We!!!!!

Agent 0 Sees A Win In His Future Tonight and So Do We!!!!!

Bobcats @ 76ers -4: The Sixers have been extremely inconsistent. They don’t play D andtheir front court has no clue how to rebound. In our opinion, Elton Brand has been a bust, and at best, was the wrong guy to fit in with their style of play. The Bobcats are fresh off a close loss to the Magic. Stephen Jackson looked solid in his debut. Hopefully for the Bobcats, he will be a positive force on and off the court this year. Larry Brown does have some experience successfully managing problem child players. This will be a tough game for them because the Sixers are rested and waiting for them. However, the Sixers will be without Marreese Speights tonight. Speights has arguably been their spark on offense this year. We’ll see how the Sixers respond. We think Jackson will have a solid game and keep it within 4. Take the Bobcats and the points.

Trust Us, If This Guy Comes Down Your Chimney This Christmas, Call The Cops Immediately!!!!! All We Want For Christmas Are Some Covers!!!!

Trust Us, If This Guy Comes Down Your Chimney This Christmas, Call The Cops Immediately!!!!! All We Want For Christmas Are Some Covers!!!!

Thunder @ Magic -12.5: Just when the Magic seem to get all of the pieces of their puzzle together on the court at once, they lose a major piece. Jameer Nelson is out for the next 4-6 weeks with a bum knee. This is a HUGE blow for the Magic, who struggled at times in their win Monday night against the Bobcats. However, Jason Williams will get the starting nod tonight in Nelson’s absence. He is certainly not the player he once was, but he is not terrible. We think he will surprise teams with his ball handling ability. The Thunder are legit and are off a HUGE win last night against the Heat. However, this Magic team is much, much better than the Heat team they faced last night. The Magic are rested, too. The game will come down to the front courts of each team. The Thunder, surprisingly, rebound much better than the Magic do. They also play better D. They also gave the Magic their worse loss of the season earlier in Oklahoma City. The Magic will be out for revenge and should be focused for tonight’s game. The Thunder have not lost by double digits all year and the Magic, with the exception of one game against the winless Nets, have not covered double digit spreads. We think the Thunder will have the energy needed to keep it within 12.5. Take the Thunder and the points.

We Are Here To Claim The Reward....We Found His Jump Shot. It Will Be In Orlando Tonight.

We Are Here To Claim The Reward....We Found His Jumpshot. It Will Be In Orlando Tonight.

Knicks @ Pacers -6.5:Man, the Knicks are so sad. The are to the NBA what the New York Mets are to baseball-overrated by the market they are in and very, very disappointing. The Knicks are winless on the road this year and probably will not get their first win on the road tonight. This Pacers team is good and really gets after the ball on both sides of the court. Danny Granger has to be an early MVP candidate and Roy Hibbert has been ridiculous in the middle. The Knicks will have no response for either. The Pacers are HOT (5 straight wins and covers) while the Knicks are not (6 straight losses and not covering in 5 of those 6 losses). The line is low because the Pacers played last night and the Knicks are rested. We don’t care. Take the Pacers and give the points.

That Is All We Have To Say About That...

That Is All We Have To Say About That...

Heat @ Hawks -7.5: The Heat looked terrible last night against the Thunder. They could not handle the size and energy the Thunder brought to the table. Things look bad for them tonight because that is exactly what the Hawks will bring at home. This team is young, athletic and fast. Each game they player better and better together. They will be a force in the regular and post seasons this year. The Heat are good, too, but they won’t have enough in the tank tonight. Look for another low scoring Heat performance. We love this line. The Hawks have covered every time they were the favorite this year. Take the Hawks and give the points.

Warriors @ Celtics -16.5: The walking wounded Warriors limp into Beantown to face a rested Celtics team. The Celtics have struggled as of late and look to avoid a 3rd straight loss. They will. We think they cover, too. Despite the spread being high, we think the Celtics are exactly what the Warriors don’t want to see right now: a rested, veteran team that is deep and plays well together. We think the game will be somewhat close until the 4th. The Celtics win big. Take the Celtics and give the points

Hate to Be Spoilers, But The Celtics Win Big Tonight.

Hate to Be Spoilers, But The Celtics Win Big Tonight.

Rockets @ T’Wolves +5.5: The Rockets are off a big home loss to the Suns last night. The T’Wolves are off losses to pretty much everyone. They may get Al Jefferson back tonight, but even if they do, it won’t matter. Even a sluggish, tired Rockets team will cover this spread. The T’Wolves just have no answer for anyone right now. Trevor Ariza is opening eyes with his new role as a starter. He should have a solid night again. Take the Rockets and give the points.

Nets @ Bucks -10: The Nets have yet to win this season and are a dismal 4-7 ATS. The Bucks have been been outstanding this year and are tied for 2nd in the Central. With the exception of the Warriors, the Nets may have the most injured team in the league. It will not help them on back-to-back nights against a hot, relentless Bucks team at home. The Bucks will have just too much depth. Take the Bucks and give the points.

Clippers @ Grizzlies -5: The Grizzlies look to build on their win and avenge an earlier season loss against the Clippers tonight. We don’t think it will happen. Although we love OJ Mayo and Rudy Gay, we think the Clippers have a better roster. Plus they play much better D. We don’t think thegame last night will have too much of an effect on the Clippers tonight. The Grizzlies may win, but it will be close. Take the Clippers and the points.

Raptors @ Jazz -7.5: Deron Williams is back for the Jazz. That is HUGE for them. This has been along road trip for the Raptors who were crushed last night by the Nuggets. A rested Carlos Boozer should have enough to keep Bosh in check. The Jazz should win big. Take the Jazz and give the points.

Spurs @ Mavericks -2: The Spurs finally have their bug guns healthy, but even without them, they beat the Mavericks outright earlier in the month by 9. The Spurs are just a better team and the Mavericks are soft. Not much analysis for us on this one. The Spurs are winless on the road. They will right their ship tonight. They will win outright. We love the points. Take the Spurs and the points.

Could Be The Worse Photo in Sports History...No Wonder Steve Nash Left Dallas.

Could Be The Worse Photo in Sports History...No Wonder Steve Nash Left Dallas.

Pistons @ Blazers -10.5: This is one of our favorite games of the night. The Pistons are fresh off a beatdown at the hands of the Lakers last night. They are understaffed without Prince andHamilton. Travelling to Portland for a game in consecutive nights to face a rested Trailbalzerssquad is not what the doctor ordered. Portland is just much, much better in every phase of the game right now. Until the Pistons get Prince and Hamilton, they have only two legit scoring threats. One of those threats, Ben Gordon, plays crazy at times. Andre Miller will eat him alive. This game will not be close. Take the Blazers and give the points.

As always, good luck with your picks.

Central Michigan (-14.5) at Ball State - You really think we were going to pass on an opportunity to bet on one of the best cover teams this season. Central Michigan is Team Kaching and we have been on board for most of their games. They are 7-2 ATS on the season. We also have a LARGE man crush on Dan LeFevour. This kid tore it up last week at home against Toledo. The Chips only have one ATS loss in the MAC and it was by a mere 1.5 points. Central Michigan wins and covers!

Colorado at Oklahoma State (-18) - This seems like a lot of points but once you get into the numbers you start to understand why the line is where it is. Compared to Colorado, Oklahoma State runs for more than 110 yards per game, almost two yards more per carry and converts third downs on offense at a 43% clip. Translation = Oklahoma State has some serious ball control strengths. The Colorado defense gives up 156 yards rushing per game and 4.1 yards per rush. Translation = Colorado ain’t stopping The Cowboys in this one. We think Oklahoma State runs early and often and beats down the Buffs. We are betting Oklahoma State to win and cover!

Boise State (-23) at Utah State - If there was one time to be confident in a line it is for this game. Boise State has not lost against the spread in this contest since 1996. Boise State has even pushed lines as high as 39 points in this series. This is not that far a road game for Boise State. We know Boise did not cover against Louisiana Tech two weeks ago but that road trip is Boise’s kryptonite. Utah State is a good home cover team but we think this Boise State team is on a mission and a little trip to Aggie land is not going to slow them down. Now we look at some hard numbers and like the game even more. Utah State gives up 200.8 yards a game rushing, 5.2 yards per rush and lets opposing offenses convert 43% of their third downs. That body of work is blowout city for Boise State. We are betting Boise State to win and cover!!!

Boise State

Head-to-Head

Good luck.

CUSE at Pitt -20 : The Greg Paulus experiment is just not living up to the preseason hype. CUSE’s best player just straight quit the team. Winter is setting in. Things are not good in the Upstate NY area (at least they have their beloved Yanks!!). So, they want nothing more than to get out of dodge. The problem is their choice of locales this week is in Pittsburgh to face the Panthers. Bad idea. Pitt needs a win to keep pace with Cincy. Although CUSE has covered the last two times head-to-head, Pitt is undefeated SU at home this year and we don’t see them losing this week either. Should be an easy cover. Take Pitt and give the points.

Baylor @ Mizzou -14: This game is a little counter-intuitive. The ATS numbers say take the Bears, but we love Mizzou at home this week. Baylor has surprised us somewhat (we thought they would be ridiculously awful and not just awful) this year. However, they are awful and not good at all on the road. We love Mizzou to ride the momentum of their impressive road win against Colorado last time out. We think it will be a close cover, but Mizzou will git ‘er done! Take Mizzou and give the points.

Oregon (-7) at Stanford - We called last week’s Oregon/USC game spot on. Oregon is straight nasty. One of the most physical, we are gonna run the ball right down your throat teams in the country. Coach Chip Kelly has his Ducks flying high and Stanford is certainly not the team to slow them down. Chip Kelly teams do not have letdowns. We are loving that this line is only Oregon -7. We would not hesitate taking this line up to 14. We are betting Oregon to win and cover!

Houston (-1) at Tulsa (Over/Under 67.5) - This game is going to be fun. Our boy Case Keenum has been lighting it up lately and he is our choice for the Heisman right now. Since the Cougs freak loss to UTEP they have put together 4 straight wins and 4 straight ATS wins. After losing to Boise State, Tulsa has lost two more and it really not playing well. We know Houston’s defense stinks and we know Houston played a 50-43 game last week against Southern Miss so looking for 68 points is not even an issue. We have no idea why this line is this close and we expect Houston to dominate. We are betting Houston to win and cover and we are taking the Over.

USC (-10) at Arizona State - USC had no chance last week against Oregon but Pete Carroll’s teams just do not lose in November. A few weeks ago we watched Stanford out work and out physical Arizona State and if Stanford could do it, USC will have absolutely no trouble moving the ball on the Sun Devils. We are expecting a USC 31-10 outcome. We are betting USC to win and cover!

Western Michigan at Michigan State (-20) - This is the perfect fit in game for Michigan State. They suffered a devastating loss against Iowa and then followed that up by losing badly at Minnesota. The Western Michigan Broncos are just the team to snap Michigan State out of their funk. We are betting Michigan State to win big!

Ohio State at Penn State (-5) - Since losing a terrible game to Purdue, Ohio State is back doing what they do in the Big Ten and against inferior competition and that is winning their last two games by a margin of 83-7. Since losing to Iowa, Penn State has rattled off 5 straight wins straight up and ATS. If we are going to bet a team that needs a win and needs a win in the Big Ten, it will always be Ohio State and Jim Tressel and not the dinosaur across the way. We even get points. We are betting Ohio State to cover!!!


LSU at Alabama (-7.5) - This is the game of the week and the game of ineptitude in our eyes. Yes we are anti SEC biased but Alabama is just not that good. Their QB is terrible and that makes them one dimensional. One dimensional teams never succeed against well coached teams and teams with good defenses. These are two traits LSU has. We are not sure LSU has enough offense to win the game outright but we think they have a chance. We just think 7.5 points is way too many and LSU will do enough to keep it close. We are betting LSU to cover!!!

NBA PICKS: DAY 3

Greetings. We stunk-up the joint opening night with a 1-3 effort. However, we were able to take some valuable info from the games. We purposely did not pick games on Day 2 becuase we wanted to gather info. Still early in the season, but we are ready to take another stab. Only two games on the docket tonight. Here is what we are taking:

Spurs @ Bulls +3: The Spurs looked great in their debut while the Bulls make their’s tonight. Derick Rose looks to follow-up a strong rookie season with a win, while the Spurs continue to take care of business and are off a very impressive win last night against the Hornets. Last year, the Spurs did not like to play back-to-back games, so we’ll see how this game effects them. However, it is only game 2 and their team is full of vets that are well coached. They know what it takes to get the job done and, they got some much needed youth in the form of DeJuan Blair. We think the Spurs start the season 2-0 and cover. Take the Spurs and give the points.

Nuggets @ Blazers -8: The Nuggets looked shapr last night in their win at home against the Jazz. Very impressive win. They played D better than they played at all last year. Ty Lawson looks to be a superstar in the making. The Blazers looked solid in their debut, too with a win over a depleted Rockets team. The Blazers will be good, but they were pretty sloppy in game one. We like the Nuggets to ride the momentum and cover. The Blazers should win, but 8 points is too many to give. Take the Nuggets and the points.

Good luck,

Runny & Flash

NCAA Football Week 6 Picks: Holy Sh*T! It is Florida/LSU Week

Big weekend on tap for NCAA football. We have 11 undefeated teams right now and we will have less when the weekend is over. This is what NCAA football is all about. The weekend will revolve around the SEC with Florida traveling to play in Baton Rouge in a night game and Alabama going to Ole Miss. Lots on the line for these teams. We are going to break this week down into games that matter for your wallets and discuss the proper wager on “THE” game of the week: Florida at LSU.

Good old fashioned wallet padding games!!!

Eastern Michigan at Central Michigan (-22.5) - Is this really a surprise. We love Dan LeFevour and we bet every Fever game. This strategy might change as the season goes on but for right now this is what we are doing. We love Central Michigan to cover and win this one!!

Michigan State (-3.5) at Illinois - Illinois benches Juice Williams and this is the line we get; only 3.5 points. Chalk this one up as easy cash. Illinois is terrible and Michigan State is respectable for a Big Ten school. Easy money and we are all over the Spartans. We are betting Michigan State big in this one!!

TCU (-10) at Air Force - If TCU can travel to Clemson and win, they certainly can travel to Air Force and win. Ten points is just not that big a deal to this team and we would be surprised if Air Force actually scores ten points; Clemson barely did. We are betting TCU to win and cover.

West Virginia (-10) at Syracuse -We love this line. West Virginia is coming off a prime time ass whoopin of Colorado and now they get to take the Devine show on the road to upstate NY. No contest here. We are betting West Virginia to win and cover!!!

Kentucky at South Carolina (-9.5) - This website has become the bet against Kentucky at all costs website. Florida kicked their ass. Alabama kicked their ass. And those two arse whoopins were in Kentucky. Now South Carolin will kick their ass. Ten points is not a big deal. Do you really need any analysis? We are betting South Carolina to win and cover!!

Iowa State at Kansas (-19) - Yes we have a man crush on Mangino and Todd Reesing. Can you really blame us? This is a big number but Kansas is at home and will go for the kill. The ATS numbers are in our favor as well. The Home TEam is 6-1 in their last 7 meetings and Iowa State 2-5 ATS in their last 7 meetings in Rock, Chalk, Jayhawk land! We are betting Kansas to win and cover!!!


The Game of the Weekend

Florida (-7.5) at LSU - This is clearly the game of the weekend and will set the tone for the BCS standings as well as the power rankings in the SEC. Also, this game has high drama with the whole Tim Tebow concussion issue going on. We do not think he will play. As of Wednesday, Tebow was still not reading. Yes you heard that correctly. He was not reading. How in the hell is a guy who is not reading, who plays like a drunken rhinoceros going to play the way he plays. In terms of RPJ $yndicate play, there is major disagreement in house. Runny and BSL are betting on LSU to cover and Flash Flash is all over Florida.

Flash Flash is betting Florida to win and cover and here is why: John Brantley is not chopped liver. This kid was all Universe in High School and broke all of Tim Twbow’s Florida high school records. Brantley has looked good in his brief time on the field as a sophomore, completing 73.3% of his passes and throwing four touchdowns without an interception. Currently 16th in the nation yielding 14.8 points per game, LSU’s defense has carried an offense that ranks 99th in total yards (321.6) behind sophomore quarterback Jordan Jefferson. This is typical SEC football for LSU, excellent defense, terrible offense. LSU is not ready to make the jump to national contender. They have close to no offense and Florida has an offense regardless of who is playing under center. Florida also has a jacked defense with ridiculous depth and experience. LSU is 2-8-1 all-time against No. 1 teams, with its lone regular-season victory coming 28-21 over Florida in prime time Oct. 11, 1997, at Tiger Stadium. 1997 is a long time ago. I also love a lot of the ATS numbers. This is a lot of points to make up but I think Florida is a far superior team and that is where my money is going.
Runny Pelvis is picking LSU to cover and here is why: Over the past few season, LSU has played #1 teams very tough. This is the best team they’ve had in recent years. I love them at home. Love it even more that they will be going against vegetable at QB if Tebow plays. Brantley actually gives them a better chance to win. I think LSU wins outright, but my money is taking the spread.

Enjoy the picks
