Big Al’s Early NFL Handicapping Tips

Early NFL: What To Look For

Big Al
Big Al

The best time of the sports year kicks off this week as we begin the NFL season. From preseason play and recent history we can get a good idea about some of the strengths and weaknesses of several teams.

If you like to play totals keep in mind that the Minnesota Vikings were 3-1 under the total in preseason. Sure, all the talk has been on Brett Favre and what he potentially can give them — a star QB they have not had since Fran Tarkenton retired. But remember, Favre joins a run-first offense, one with a great offensive line and a pair of terrific RBs in Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor.

The ABC Saturday night college football schedule starts out with a doozy of a game between Alabama and Virginia Tech, a pair of top 10 teams in most polls.

Detroit Lions 2009 Gambling Preview

Things can only get better…they hope!

At least there is one thing that can be guaranteed this season in the NFL – the Detroit Lions cannot possibly be any worse than they were in 2008!

LOOKING FOR THE BEST NFL CAPPERS ONLINE? CLICK HERE —–>

The sad, hopeless, helpless Lions (change of nickname required perhaps?) made history last season with the first 0-16 regular season record, and although they did come close to winning a couple of games there is no ‘N’ for ‘N’early a win in the NFL standings at the moment.

Week 1 CFB Free Picks

NCAA Football Week 1 Predictions

Sports Interaction betting analyst Frank Doyle makes his picks from the Week 1 games as College Football returns to America.

College football normally starts off slowly, as the major colleges schedule tomatoes whom they kick around to make them feel better about themselves. But, as Michigan found out last year, they don’t make opening day tomatoes like they used to, and maybe that’s why we’re seeing so many good games in this first week.

(1) NEW HEAD COACHES ARE MONEYBURNERS

For the most part, new coaches are brought into college football programs that are in need of a transfusion. Much like a body that undergoes alterations during a lifestyle change of diet and exercise, it also takes a while before first year coaches turn a program around. In fact, all teams with 1st year head coaches are 1307-1445-45, or 47.4% ATS, since 1990.

NCAA Football Over/Under Season Wins

By Matt Josephs for Steve Merril Sports

The 2009 College Football season is here and there is once again value in Over/Under season win totals. There are always teams that surpass or fall short of lofty expectations set by the oddsmakers. When trying to find value, you must group games into three categories…sure wins, sure losses and question marks. Ideally you want to find more sure results when deciding which side you fall on.
