Push, but still need better. We've got a big Saturday to get us back on track. NFL, NBA, and College Hoops all on the board. Subscribers can click here for all of today's Locks.

Got to do better. The admin and I are discussing a slight change in possibly posting the Locks later in the day so that I can see more about any injuries or sitting of players - particularly in the NBA. We're not making any policy changes yet, but stay tuned with us here.

Didn't learn until this morning that we pushed on USC. Looks like a late line movement there plus TCU not getting it done in either overrtime cost us the winning night. From our feedback, most of you got the USC win, but we are bound by our grading rules here, so we have to score it a push.

Obviously off to a real tough start to January. I'm working to turn this skid around. Frustrating night last night all around, with a couple of games particularly frustrating, as Kansas is about 25 points better than Iowa State, and ha about five opportunities to blow that thing open, and just never did.

Congrats to subscribers on a 3-0 Monday night, and congrats to all of you on a great title game to watch last night. That was a lot of fun. We have SEVEN Locks on the board, subscribers can click here for all of today's Locks.

Chiefs game was a real dick-kicker. Robbed of a scoop and score, and then they bottom out when Kelce goes down. Ridiculous. Should of been a blowout. Press forward today with more playoffs, NBA, and college hoops. Subscribers can click here to get them all.

Eff. Brutal day yesterday, I'm not happy about it, you're not happy about it - no one is happy about it.

Alright, a little more organized today. If you ever notice that this blog post is super short with odd spacing or mistypes - it was probably done from our cellphone. The blog program we use doesn't have a mobile-friendly version, so it gets tough to type really anything. And a desktop/laptop isn't always available depending on what all we are doing in the morning. Doesn't happen often, but when it does, now you know why.

Saturday recap: more bad breaks, as we miss Auburn and the Florida/Mizzou OVER by half points, and Syracuse backdoors us on our FSU play. Even through that, we go 7-8. Just need some breaks to go our way to break through.

You saw it, I saw it, we all saw it. Go check out Lane Kiffin's twitter feed if he hasn't deleted it yet. Even if it's not true, it's pretty stupid to say something like that. We press forward and if there are any football coaches checking in, how about throwing some of that juice our way?

Troy could just not get it together last night. We split the evening with an easy Jets win.

Good start to November with a winning evening last night - we did not have a play on the World Series game, so that wasn’t a great start for me personally. Hope the Dodgers can get back again before I kick the bucket.

When you have 3rd & 8 AND the quarterback in a fetal position eight yards behind the line of scrimmage, don't let him pick up 17 yards. Just that simple. 2017 has been the year of where 3rd and 8 or longer seems to be no problem picking up. See it week in and out, college and pro. Pay attention to it next weekend and see how many times our defense shuts down 1st and 2nd, only to disappear for 3rd down. Get off the field.

Buccaneers fell apart, and Chuck Pagano apparently had zero interest in winning that game. Ridiculous performance by the Colts. We push out on Sunday, so we move forward to Monday with THREE Locks on the board. Subscribers can click here for all of today's Locks.

Yesterday kind of felt like 2016... 4-1 on a Sunday! Obviously we need more of those, and we're working hard to get them. If we can get a little bit of the luck to fall our way, we could have a big second half to the football season. We'll stay positive.

Another disappointing Saturday. Way too many 'come aparts' yesterday. Oklahoma should of won by 20, Tennessee is just dumb, and Texas Tech apparently wasn't ready to win the game when it was presented to them. Some folks have started playing our college picks for the 1H, as we just seem to be on a streak with teams that fall apart late. As always - use this information in whatever way that benefits you.

Another poor Saturday which again sat upon 5-6 plays away from us having a great day with each of them going against us. Really frustrated by the bad luck in college football this year, and we’re sure you are, too. Trying our best to get it right. Many of these games we feel like we’ve made the right call, and we get screwed over at the end by a coach’s  weird decision to go for it/not go for it - and a lot of times they don’t make sense.

Easy wins last night, as we get a good jump going into a HUGE Saturday that has FOURTEEN Locks on the board. Feeling that good about all these games - there wasn't anything I wanted to take off the board (i usually do a few rounds of culling the list). Let's all have a huge day today.
