Saturday Gambling Post

Good Afternoon, and welcome back!

In this post, I'm going to share with you some of the bets that I will be placing today. Now, before we go any further, I want you to know that you should always gamble responsibly. Never bet more than you are afraid to lose! If you follow my advice, damn you're brave! With that being said, I am not telling you that you should bet as I do, just what action I'm getting in on. So without further ado, here are my bets and picks for the week.


UMASS (-2) over Hawaii

East Coast game, long travel, Hawaii is trash, you get the point.

USF/SJSU OVER 

USF has an amazing offense, but a shaky defense. I'm not so sure they cover the 22 they are giving up, and I feel more confident that both teams will combine for the over.

Stanford (-30) over Rice

See previous post. Rice might lose to an FCS team.

Conor McGregor to Win

The odds are too good to pass up. I mean +! Are you kidding me? Give him a punchers chance and see how it goes. The fight will likely go one of two ways.  1.) Conor knocks out Floyd in an early round (1-3).  2.) Floyd makes it through the initial onslaught and coasts to a decision over a gassed McGregor. I like the Irishman. I love Irish people. I will be watching this fight while drinking a Guinness and hoping for The Notorious to tag Mayweather with that crooked number in his record.


Picks Straight Up:

Oregon State over Colorado State
BYU over Portland State
UMASS over Hawaii
South Florida over San Jose State
Stanford over Rice


Again, gamble responsibly! Let us know in the comments what you're going in on, what you agree with, or what you disagree with. Happy Saturday!
