Crick's Picks: College Football - Week 13
Well Folks... I like how the "Multi-Unit" plays worked out last week, as we finished exactly .500 ATS, but ended up profitable as most of our bigger bets came through!! I'm gonna roll with that same strategy this weekend & see if we can dig a little further out of this hole!! Make sure to pay attention to the unit amount recommended for each play.. You & Your Beautiful Families STAY SAFE Out There!! Good Luck, Good Gamblin, & Go Vols!!!!
ATS = Against The Spread

OFFICIAL PICKS: ELECTION 2024
These are the final pre-election picks. If you already have placed picks in the market, I recommend staying put, as I am, unless it's easy for you to move funds around to get the best value currently available. For those who have not yet placed picks, here are the best value picks I could find currently available in the markets. The % in front of the pick is the recommended % of the bankroll/investment fund available for political betting markets; as always, don't risk anything you cannot afford to lose, as there are always only probabilities, not certainties. The % below assume you only have access to 1 market; if you have access to multiple markets, adjust accordingly to the best value for the picks.
