2023 Mutual Fund

Here's how the Mutual Fund works: Invest 1 or 2 shares in the Fund at $50.00 per share( maximum of 2 shares per person). I'm able to invest up to 22 shares, but, my total shares contribution will be determined by how many people sign up. Yes, I will put my money where my mouth is! I do the handicapping work. I make the picks. I determine what units will be invested in each pick. Unit plays will fall into 4 possibilities: 1-unit; 1/2-unit; 1/4-unit and 1/5-unit. (A 1-unit play represents my strongest play). The most you can lose is the value of your share(s). Either 50.00 or 100.00. You cannot lose more. How much can you win? I make no guarantees, but, I'll work my ass off to have a successful year. If I'm blessed to have a good year, I will deduct 20% of each share's profits as payment for my work. My goal is to have picks announced prior to the start of games, but, that is not a guarantee. Sometimes I'm handicapping games right up until the start times. The picks will be given out within minutes of the game(s) starting, with the lines and units on each play. My goal is to start the Mutual Fund on September 28th, but, i reserve the option of starting it one week later. The Mutual Fund ends with the Army vs.Navy game, the unofficial end of the regular season. Payment shares will come soon after. Mutual Fund status will be updated every Tuesday of the regular season, once the fund officially starts. It should be a lot of fun and I tried to make the risk very small. If you sign up, I hope you enjoy it. Email me at sam@college-edge.com if you have any questions. You can make payment right here, at this site via PayPal or call 267-918-1064 if you'd like to arrange another mode of payment or, if you have any questions.

Can this non-BCS win it all? A fan's, handicapper's,(and gambler's) musings on college football( and other stuff)

TCU can win the National Championship this year! One of college football's most under-rated coaches is Gary Patterson, and the Horned Frogs coach has his team in position to win it all! Their offense has great, great depth at RB( 3 Rbs avgd over 6.5 y.p.c.), they have one of the best wr corps in the nation, and nearly 4 starters back on the offensive line, including a 1st team MWC player at the all-important Center spot. And, that side of the ball may not even be the strength of the team!
Last year, TCU had only 4 starters back on defense, and proceeded to give up only 12.8 points per game, 80 yards rushing and 158 yards passing. Opposing offenses completed only 474% of their passes! Yo, people, this year TCU has 7 starters back on defense. Yes, they lost AA DE Hughes, but, they have 3 starters back, including 1st and 2nd All MWC linemen, respectively.
They lost a 3rd team AA, but, get back 2 strong starters at the linebacking spots.
The one weakness on this team is at the CB position, where TCU lost 2 All-leaguers. If they do not win it all, it will be because of this position.BUT, coach Patterson has proven to me his ability to overcome the losses of key players on his prior outstanding defenses, and I believe he will do it again this year.
Oregon St. may be their toughest test, but, that game is being played in Texas. The other tough test on the schedule is the Utah game on the road. If they win both of those games, the only thing that keeps the Horned Frogs out of the championship game is the politics of the BCS!
