    These are just trends that I have found for this week’s games. Please use them however you see fit. Good luck out there. Arkansas State is 1-4 ATS and 0-5 straight up as home underdogs since 2017 SMU has won 9 of the last 10 against Tulane The under has hit in 5 of the […]

    Getting Over: The AEW Weekly Stock Report

    If you’re anything like me, you’re itching for an AEW show at this point. With no Dynamite on Wednesday this week, it feels like forever since we’ve gotten our proper AEW fix.

    Good team win… Great Teams cover

    What’s up guys. Welcome to this college football gambling column I’m starting here. I should probably start by saying I was sick a few weeks back and threw a couple of bucks on some college football games while I was on the couch all day. I did decent enough that I figured I’d take after […]

    Top 5 NBA Players for 2021-22 Season

    The 75th NBA season is set to begin in less than two weeks, so at TGS we decided to give our thoughts on who the best players are for the 2021-2022 season. Two weeks ago, ESPN released its yearly NBA player rankings and as you can imagine, it is a little flawed. Here is how […]

    Getting Over: The AEW Weekly Stock Report

    Right before AEW’s latest pay-per-view All Out, I wrote that it was the perfect time to start watching AEW. That, in fact, we could be witnessing the wrestling business change in front of our very eyes: AEW is hot, no two ways about it. They’ve consistently hit a million viewers on their flagship Dynamite show since mid-July, […]

    This is a week that AEW has been building towards for months, as the company presents two shows that, on paper, look to be in contention for the strongest in company history, certainly in terms of in-ring matchups. Last week, I fantasy booked this week’s AEW Dynamite Grand Slam and, impressively, got nearly everything wrong. […]

    Getting Over: The AEW Weekly Stock Report

    Coming on the heels of All Out, an almost instantly historic show reported to have done well over 200,000 pay-per-view buys, AEW was tasked with capitalizing on that momentum with last week’s Dynamite and Rampage shows. With intrigue in the company at an all-time high, the 9/8 Dynamite was watched by over 1.3 million viewers […]

  • GameDay Guest Picker Nominations

    They’re back! ESPN’s College GameDay is coming back to the heartland for yet another Cy-Hawk rivalry game. I polled The Tailgate Society contributors with some rooting interest in the game for who’d they like to see at the desk with Rece, Desmond, coach, and Herbstreit. Here’s what we said.

  • How the New Big 12 Stacks Up

    How the New Big 12 Stacks Up

    BYU, Cincinnati, Houston, and UCF appear headed to the Big 12, and that means a shake-up among the Power Five. Can the Big 12 keep up with the others in money, power, perception, and (most importantly) winning? To try to answer that on-the-field question, I turned to advanced metrics.
