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.

#HandicappingSeminar: N.Caro.over NCSU, A Win

North Carolina was the College Edge pick over North Carolina State in the last of our early Saturday plays. I picked the Tar Heels for a couple of major reasons: I had them rated higher than the Wolfpack under my College Edge team ratings, and I believed the Heels would be motivated to play hard following their embarrassing loss to in-state rival, Duke, the previous week.
In picking N.C., I was going against one of my favorite coaches, Tom O'Brien, who just so happens to be one of the best coaches in the FBS as a road underdog.
My fears were justified. NCSU played a very good game on the road, and, there is no way I deserved to get the cover in this ACC matchup. N.C. scored on a punt return with 13 seconds left, and, then, muffed the extra point snap, but, the holder picked up the loose football and threw a 2-point play in desperation!
Was I lucky? Yes. Am I apologetic? Definitely not. I don't cry when I lose these type of games(okay, maybe I cry for a little while), and my happiness is always tempered by the fact luck can change in an instant!
