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.

@EdgySam: #ASU at #Washington, #THEPICK

@EdgySam simply does not believe in ASU. They have only 1.5 starters back on defense,and 4.5 back on offense, including the loss of '13 starting QB Kelly. I have the home team, Washington, rated higher than the Sun Devils, and, yet, they come into the game an underdog. As a result, I gave out the Huskies to my cleeps.
I also gave out a 1/2 unit recommendation on the under. Lots of rain and wind forecast for the game, and I thought the 60+ total was too high.

@EdgySam:The Final Comp Pick, #AR vs #WSU

Arizona passes the ball very proficiently: 434, 231, 278, 520,287,395!!! WSU fortunately for us, plays pretty sub-par pass defense( 281, 329, 527,284 to Rutg, Oreg, Cal, and Stan, respectively).
WSU passes the ball very proficiently: 532, 389, 436, 417, 734, 292!!! Arizona, fortunately for us, plays pretty sub-par pass defense(252, 228, 321, 380, 302, 185(huh)).
This game should, hopefully, get into the upper 80s. To be honest, I'm wondering why totals line is so low.
Take the over in the final comp pick of 2014.

Hope you'll decide to sign up. NFL picks for tomorrow are ready to go, and you'll get the Breeder's Cup picks too. If you'd rather not pay by PayPal, make arrangements to send a money order.
Regardless of what happens, I will continue to work my butt off for the guys and ladies who do sign up,and, I'll continue to hope my big break is coming.

@EdgySam: #Temple vs.#UCF, #THEPICK!

I want to keep this simple because it pains me to make this pick, but, I have UCF rated considerably higher than my alma mater, Temple. The line is dropping, and, in reality, it probably should be going the other way. I look at making this pick as I win either way: if UCF wins, I'll be relatively happy; if Temple wins, I'll be very happy.
Take UCF.

If you'd like my picks for tonight and the rest of the year, sign up at this site for my very reasonable offer. I have your NFL picks ready as well.

@EdgySam: #UNLV at #UTAHST, #THEPICK

You absolutely cannot trust UNLV, but, I have them rated higher than Utah St under my CollegeEdge team ratings and the Rebels are underdogs. Also, Utah St. is down to its 3rd string QB.
No recommendation on this game, but, tie UNLV into a small parlay with a team you like. I just can't give out a team as bad as UNLV in a recommendation.

@EdgySam: #WestVirginia at #OklahomaState, #THEPICK!

In handicapping this game, I came to much the same conclusion as I did in picking Cincinnati last night. Oklahoma St. has been surprisingly sub-par this year, and I just don't see how they can keep up with a West Virginia team that's been getting tremendous production from QB Trickett, a decent complimentary running game, and a pretty strong defense.
Yes, I'm hoping the Mountaineers have no letdown after the big win last week, but, I'm counting on my CollegeEdge ratings holding true in this Big 12 contest.
Take West Virginia.

No plays at Noon(I took Arkansas, Virginia and Nebraska in my 2nd Annual Handicapping Contest for my early picks, and I'm presently in 3rd place!), so comp picks will end with games that start at 6:00p.m. or earlier.

Sign up today and get tonight's picks and Sunday's NFL selections. Thanks.

@EdgySam: #Oregon/#Cal & #BYU/#BoiseState, #ThePicks

BYU too many injuries. I like HC Bronco Mendenhall getting his team up after three straight losses, but, not enough to make it a recommendation.
Like Oregon, but, not enough to make Ducks a recommendation. Road games vs. WSU and UCLA are scaring me away from a recommendation.
In a fun parlay, make a small investment in BYU and Oregon. But, no recommendation.
Comp picks end with Noon games Saturday. I'll work hard for You. Sign up now

@EdgySam: #USF at #Cincinnati, #THEPICK!

In answer to question I posed last night, no, I don't believe USF's win over Tulsa last week is the start of a positive pattern for the Bulls.I'm going with my collegeedge ratings tonight:
Take Cincinnati in a small( 1/2 unit) play.
NFL picks are ready to go for whoever signs up for my offer. Last comp picks are at Noon Saturday.
