A lot of bettors don't use their head. Teasers, parlays, panic and chase plays etc. Lot of CRAZY money being thrown around.

But as far as just actually picking the right side before the weekend madness begins, I will stand by what I said.

Yes, I know it is a minute sample but it will stay close to this all season. It has for years. By the way, the lines are static. They are posted on Wednesday and do not change.
