Rough Day at the Office


Momma said they'll be days like this folks. Nothing like a 2-6 day and 3-6 week to take us off of our football high.

The good news is a) that photo above exists and b) we get a mulligan of sorts tomorrow with the NFL, which we will tout as being 83% this season for as long as we can.

In gambling, there will be days when Lane Kiffin inexplicably goes for two a couple times in a game and Minnesota scores a feel good, garbage touchdown with 11 seconds left. That's just how things go sometimes. Bad days happen, you just hope they aren't 2-6 bad. But when they are, it's important not to overreact. Stick with what works and in the long run you should come out on top. As long as, you know, it really works.

Alabama and Florida State provided the only two covers of the day, and that's all we care to say about September 18, 2010. As mentioned, our Thursday victory carries us to a slightly less ridiculous 3-6 week, so here's the tally:

Free NCAA Football Picks
Week 1: 5-4-1
Week 2: 8-4
Week 3: 3-6
Overall: 17-14-1... 55%

The bottom line is, we're not going anywhere. We'll be back next week with more Free NCAA Football Picks, and there is virtually nowhere to go but up.

Speaking of bottom lines, if you didn't take the opportunity to send a donation when our picks were winning, maybe it makes more sense to lend us some cash after a 3-6 week. Maybe we would have been better served betting on the UFL's opening week today.

Again, NFL tomorrow.

Roll Tide!


After a big cover, we usually rub it in with a post about our dead-on pick. In 2010, our resolution was to let our picks do the talking. Well, most of the talking.

We had our first pick of 2010 earlier this week with the BCS National Championship Game. Alabama took care of Texas on Thursday, covering the -4 1/2 point spread and giving us a perfect 1-0 record this decade.

Although we are done with college football picks for the year, stay tuned to Stock Lemon for plenty of playoff football action, including our earlier pick today!

Free BCS Championship Pick


And now, for our first pick of the 2010 betting season!

We'll have plenty of NFL playoff coverage this weekend (including picks in every game), but first, we'll end the NCAA Football season with our Free BCS Championship Pick.

Alabama -4 1/2 over Texas

Roll Tide tonight! We like Mark Ingram's Tide to beat Colt McCoy's Longhorns, just like Ingram edged McCoy for the Heisman.

Good luck!

2009 NFL Mock Draft: Picks 4-6

Yesterday, we unveiled our first three picks in our 2009 NFL Mock Draft, and today, since you've all been behaving lately, we're dishing out our next three picks. 

4. Seahawks: Eugene Monroe, T, Virginia

The quarterback position will be tempting for the Seahawks, depending on how the draft unfolds, but they have an opportunity to secure the tackle position by grabbing a player that many feel is the best of the top three or four tackles. 

5. Browns: Brian Orakpo, DE, Texas

Orakpo has sky-rocketed up the draft boards, and his explosiveness and athletic ability are good reasons why. Some fear he's simply a workout warrior, but his numbers at Texas indicated otherwise. This kid can play. 

6. Bengals: Andre Smith, T, Alabama

This seems like too perfect of a fit. A player who has done nothing but raise character questions during the pre-draft months seems destined for those infamous Bengal stripes. Despite the issues Smith has had, we think he'll make an excellent pro, worthy of being the third tackle in the first six picks in the draft. We told you we liked the top three tackles. 

Keep on checking back and we'll keep the 2009 NFL Mock Draft coming. The next three picks will likely be up tomorrow.

Take the Tide Today

Our Free NCAA Football Picks are hitting 62% in the last eight weeks and we have one play in the SEC Championship Game today. 

Alabama +10 over Florida

This should do it for our Free NCAA Football Picks until it's time to go bowling. 

Good luck!

Florida and Alabama Cover Easily

With a 30-6 crushing of Tennessee, Florida made they oddsmakers look foolish, covering the -7 spread with no trouble at all. Tim Tebow and Percy Harvin proved too much for the Vols, making our biggest Free NCAA Football pick of the week a success.

Likewise, the Crimson Tide laughed in the face of the -8.5 spread, as Alabama dominated Arkansas 49-14.

These two favorites provided us with some big covers earlier today, and we have another game pending in what could be a very profitable Saturday.

Three More Free NCAA Football Picks

As always, we have much more than just our Game of the Week play. This week, we like a lot of favorites--including in the aforementioned Game of the Week. The three favorites are:

Purdue (-10) Central Michigan

Alabama (-8.5) Arkansas

Tulsa (-9.5) New Mexico

Curtis Painter and the Boilermakers should dominate the Chippewas in what is our second strongest play of the week. The Crimson Tide will prove they are for real against the razorbacks, and New Mexico will find out that it is indeed Golden Hurrican season.

We like the crop of games this week, and although all our picks our favorites, they are all favorites for good reason.

Good luck!

Florida the Pick Tonight

We have another Free NCAA Basketball Pick today and it is a decent value.

Florida -3 over Alabama

Florida really has to make some noise in the conference tourney if they want to punch a ticket to the big dance, so they'll have to take care of Alabama tonight. If that's not enough reason to put some money on the Gators, consider that ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews went to Florida. Although that's an irrelevant fact to this game, she's hotter than our Free NBA Picks, so we'll throw a picture of her up anyways.

March Madness is fast approaching! Good luck!
