Welcome to collegepicksonly.com! You guessed it, we only pick college sports (football and basketball)!
Probably somewhat like you, we started “betting” on sports at an early age – betting a candy bay in elementary school, $5 in Junior High School, playing nickel poker in high school, doing parlay cards in college through a “friend” of a friend in college.
Over 20 years ago we made our first trip to Vegas and started betting real money on real games. Learning about the juice, the lines, buying the hook, etc. That first trip, I don’t think there was a bet over $100. Now many years later, there aren’t bets under $1000.
When you are talking about betting mortgage payment size bets, you need to have a good idea what you are doing. So we started tracking lines, bets, totals, first halves, second halves – Everything. What we learned is that if you want to make money gambling on sports, you need a strategy. We came up with ours. To focus on what we think are the places where you can find the most value. Those are college basketball and college football.
Think about it. There are at most 16 NFL games a week. The handle (total bet) on an average NFL game is 10 times (or more) what is be on an average college game. There are over 50 college games every week. Where do you think the books spend the majority of their time and resources? Making the line on the Giants vs. Eagles, or on Oregon State vs. New Mexico State? Same goes for NBA vs. college basketball.
We quite simply, using our systems, look for value in the lines that get less attention than others. That is why we focus on only 2 sports. If someone is giving you picks in pro football and basketball, college basketball and football, baseball, boxing, horse racing, MMA, and hockey, are they really focused on any of them?
For the price of a few hands of blackjack, you can get every pick we make and win right along with us. We don’t bet 20 games a weekend. We don’t have a minimum or maximum number of games to release. We look for the value in the lines. When we see it, we bet. If we bet, you will get the picks delivered to your email. Since we only bet when we see value, we AVERAGE about 3-5 football picks and 4-8 basketball picks a week.
The exception the NCAA Basketball tournament. We usually have several picks every day of the basketball tournament. With the lines coming out so quick and a myriad of smaller schools and off the radar programs, there is usually tons of value over those 3 weeks. We make about 40% of our money for the year during the tournament! Our price would be worth it if you only played the tournament picks!
Going to Vegas for the weekend? Sign up for our weekly package and make some money. Like to play the games all year long? Sign up for the year long package and get every pick we make from opening weekend of football through the NCAA basketball championship game in April.
