Send us a text Cold streaks make the best audits. We opened the books on a rough run, admitted the dog is beating most of our crew, and then got to the real work: finding small edges with oversized impact. From college hoops pricing to NFL coaching heat, this one moves fast and hits where the lines are soft. We dig into Purdue’s rank whiplash, Houston’s steady covers, and why neutral-site tournaments twist perception. Then it’s Stay Frosty time: Brian Daboll is out, the Bengals’ defense need...
Send us a text Ratings boomed for a World Series that delivered nearly everything—pinch-hit heroics, extra-inning drama, and a gut-punch walk-off—while our betting ledger took its lumps and the Bengals’ defense veered into the history books for all the wrong reasons. We connect the dots between spectacle and strategy, translating the Dodgers’ repeat and the NFL’s chaos into practical edges you can actually bet. We kick off with the cold reality of last week’s card and why clinging to overs b...
Send us a text A Halloween hangover, a blacked-out playbook, and a slate that still pays. We open with the chaos of ESPN’s split from YouTube TV, including the surreal moment a DVR’d show vanished mid-episode, then pull the lens back to what it means for fans and bettors: more subscriptions, more logins, fewer live looks. If you’ve felt the pain of app-hopping on a college Saturday, you’re not alone—and yes, it’s costing you edges in live-betting and line reads. From there, we regroup and sh...
Send us a text Chaos had a busy week. We kick off with a sharp look at who’s trying to buy into college sports—and why a new bill in Congress aims to slam that door on private equity, hedge funds, and sovereign wealth funds. If you care about how conferences are run, what gets prioritized, and how non-revenue sports survive, this fight matters. Then we pivot to a quality-of-life win for fans: California’s SB576, which forces streaming platforms to match ad volume to program volume. If you’ve ...
Send us a text The bracket doesn’t need saving, but it does need protecting. I open with a full-throated case against expanding March Madness to 76 teams—why it muddles the bracket, rewards the wrong résumés, and makes office pools a midweek mess—then follow the money toward a bigger worry: private equity knocking on college sports’ front door. What happens to classes, rivalries, and the middle tier when financiers chase margins and rebrand conferences like product lines? If you care about th...
Send us a text The brothers are back with a celebratory episode after achieving an incredible 7-1 gambling record as a group last week. The podcast kicks off with a triumphant recap of their nearly perfect betting slate, with only one over bet missing the mark in what turned out to be a defensive struggle. The college football landscape has delivered some genuine surprises, none more shocking than Iowa's offensive transformation. After years of being the quintessential under bet, Iowa has su...
Send us a text What happens when two brothers sit down to talk football betting? A hilarious, insightful breakdown of everything from college powerhouses to NFL disappointments—with plenty of disagreements along the way. This week, host Andy welcomes his brother Matt for their first in-person podcast of the season, diving into the aftermath of Week 1 and setting the stage for Week 2's biggest matchups. The brothers don't hold back as they dissect USF's shocking upset over Florida, placing Ga...
Send us a text Football season has arrived, and we're kicking things off with a special guest! My wife Darby joins the podcast, bringing her credentials as a five-time fantasy football champion and reigning league winner to our NFL season preview. Though she doesn't consider herself a gambler, her player knowledge and football insights prove invaluable as we break down each NFL division. The conversation takes several fascinating turns, from Bill Belichick's embarrassing collegiate coaching ...
