DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (1/1/25)
While we are all nursing our hangovers (all football-related, of course) from the end of 2024, we have the final three games of the college football playoff on tap for New Year's Day. Gone are the days of a dozen bowl games happening on New Year's Day. College football is opting for quality (they hope) […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/31/24)
We're finishing off 2024 in style with conference play opening for many college basketball teams. The pre-conference season was a blast this year, but now the stakes are just a little bit higher. We start this off in the Loud House with Wake visiting. Utah is heading down to Waco to take on Baylor. West […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: New Years Eve 2024 And New Years Day 2025
We have five games on New Year's Eve before the final three quarterfinals of the expanded playoff on New Year's Day. That's a lot of (supposed) quality football games. Five of the eight matchups feature a ranked team against another ranked team. What more can we ask for (besides a revert to a four-team playoff)? […]

We are onto the final day of 2024! It has been a fun season, but now we are winding down. We only have two more of these classic slates after today. This is the largest, so let's enjoy it (those frustrating opt-outs be darned). We begin in Tampa with the ReliaQuest Bowl between Alabama and […]

All my rowdy college basketball friends are going to take over Monday night! It may not officially be "Big Monday"' yet, but it may as well be with this schedule! We tip this off a bit early with Monmouth heading down to Auburn. The normal start time gives us Cincinnati at the Octagon of Doom […]

It's been a while since we had a split slate of college basketball action, but we get one on New Year's Eve eve. Forget Monday Night Football! We have day (and night) college basketball! We open in East Lansing with the boys from Kalamazoo making their way over on I-94 to take on Sparty. We […]

We have a matchup that we never […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games 12/28 and 12/30 2024
We get our busiest day of bowl season today with seven games. Nice, huh? I'll include Monday's pick here as well. We'll get to the rest of the bowl games on Monday to try and get a more accurate spread. Most of the players who will be in the portal are already there, but Winston […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/28/24)
This is our last big college football slate of the season. We have eight bowl games today, but DraftKings cut off the Fenway Bowl between North Carolina and Connecticut. We still hope we have seven good games going on. Opt-outs change everything. We kick off in Yankee Stadium for the Pinstripe Bowl with Boston College […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/27/24)
The biggest weekend of bowl season fills up our Friday with four bowl games. They chopped off the Navy-Oklahoma game (thank God). Our first game features two teams that shaped the playoff more than any others facing each other when Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt meet in the Birmingham Bowl. Next up is Texas Tech and […]

All of the action today comes from the Diamond Head Classic in Honolulu. It's an all-day affair out on the Hawaiian Islands. Since we can't we there in person, we have to settle for DFS. Today's first game of the Diamond Head Classic pits Charleston against Loyola-Chicago. Next up is Oregon State and Oakland. Nebraska […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 2 (12/23 Through 12/27 2024)
The bowls start picking up in earnest after Christmas. For those spread picks, I will likely do an article per day. It is the age of opt-outs, even from teams in the playoffs. This is the most up-to-date site I've found so far. It has been a great help over the first week! I closed […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/23/24)
The bowl games start amping up in earnest after Christmas. I'll still take college football games on a Monday for the first time since Labor Day. Both bowl games today start early to ensure they don't interfere with Monday Night Football, but I'm not complaining. College football is college football. The offseason is longer than […]

We have a busy Sunday on the hardwood this week. The Diamond Head Classic tips off in Honolulu today. We have some offerings from campus venues and another border battle from a city on the border. This is a low-key, great way to spend a Sunday. It begins in Tuscaloosa with Kent State in town. […]

I know that today has the fewest hours of daylight of any day in the northern hemisphere, but having the "night" slate start while it is still light out feels weird. What's not weird is the marquee matchups. DePaul heads up to the suburbs to take on Northwestern to get us started. Villanova heads to […]

We have a big day of college basketball in front of us today and I'll be with you the whole way! The college football playoff finishes the first round today, but there is still plenty of basketball to keep us going. We start at the Barclays Center, where Maryland faces Syracuse. SMU is climbing Chestnut […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/21/24)
College football cleared the way for the expanded playoff to dominate the final Saturday before Christmas. We'll have plenty more bowls coming up during Christmas week, but this Saturday will be for the giant revenue-making abomination that is the expanded playoff. Hey, those NIL deals don't pay for themselves! We have three playoff games today, […]

We only have two college basketball games going on tonight, but they are two important ones. There is one mid-major team, but they aren't your average mid-major team; they would have been a No. 1 seed in the 2020 NCAA Tournament. We start the night in Providence with St. John's making the trip over to […]

Friday gives us two bowl games and the first games of the expanded playoff. That makes this slate more interesting than just the early bowl games. We know the Battle for Lil' Sebastian won't have anyone opting out. Jacksonville State may have several sitting out, but we likely won't know until just before kickoff. We […]

We are down to four games tonight, featuring some teams we rarely see on DraftKings. As we approach the Christmas lull, they are all on-campus games. We open in Athens with Buffalo taking on Georgia. Next up is Lipscomb in Murfreesboro taking on Middle Tennessee State. UC Irvine is in Nashville taking on Belmont. We […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/18/24)
My picks on Saturday were irrelevant by kickoff since I was heavy on South Alabama and most of its offensive starters sat out. There was very little advanced warning leading up to the game. That could be the case again until the "important" games. We begin in Boca Raton with the Boca Raton Bowl between […]

We have a nice slate of games on Wednesday. It's heavy on the Big East with a sprinkling of the old Pac-12 and the other game from the Jumpman Classic. We open in D.C. with Georgetown hosting the slumping Blue Jays from Creighton. Next up is Xavier and UConn from Hartford. Memphis heads to Charlottesville […]

It's a busy Tuesday with a lot of good teams in action, but not all of these games will be good games. We'll have to choose our spots wisely. It's a big basketball day in the state of North Carolina. We start with the high point: North Carolina and Florida tangle at the Jumpman Invitational […]

The Monday nights in college will be lighter through the holidays, but we still have some mid-major action with a couple of power teams sprinkled in. You can gain leverage by going away from the more well-known players in these slates. First up is Wofford in Charleston to take on College of Charleston. Grand Canyon […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 1 (12/17 Through 12/21 2024)
We have 10 games in this first week of bowl season, including the first four games of the expanded college football playoff. Does it make for better games early on in bowl season? Yes. Do we need three-loss teams with a chance for a championship? Not a chance. I closed out the regular season strong, […]
