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: Nevada-AirForce, A Losing Pick

In the Nevada-Air Force game,  I had the Wolfpack rated higher than the Falcons, and the stats seemed to back up my ratings. Nevada's offensive stats were sterling going into the MWC matchup, and I didn't envision any way Air Force's inexperienced defense could stop coach Chris Ault's vaunted Pistol offense. Hey, on top of that QB Fajardo was returning from an injury. Man, was I wrong!
I got my butt kicked because the Falcons' own vaunted offense, the legendary, service academy option, destroyed Nevada's defense when they gained over 475 yards on the ground, on 82 carries, and, get this, an un-service academy-like, 139 yards in the air.That's over 600 yards of total offense.
A lesson re-learned: never under estimate the ability of a service academy to rip to shreds a defense that doesn't know how to defend the option.
I wish I would've won my Nevada pick, but, I never cease to be proud when the service academy teams kick butt. I love the service academy teams!
