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: #MissSt vs #GeorgiaTech, #ThePick

I have Miss.St rated considerably higher than Georgia Tech. On this New Year's Eve, I go with my numbers. I gave the Bulldogs to my cleeps in a 1-unit play.
In a 1/2-unit play, I also gave out the over in the same game. I believe both teams will have lots of success running the ball, which should open up the passing attack as well.
Happy New Year

@EdgySam: #BoiseSt vs. #Arizona, #ThePick

I'm late putting this out, so, there is a segment (93.5%) that won't believe that I gave out Boise St to my cleeps in a 1-unit recommendation, my highest class of play.
Why? The better defense belongs to the Broncos. When that happens, it's also nice to have an offense that has a strong running game. Boise has a strong running game.
The Broncos were a 1-unit play.

@EdgySam: #TCU vs #OleMiss, #ThePicks

This will be the toughest defense TCU will face this year. Against a tough passing defense, West Virginia, the Horned Frogs only threw for 40% completion. That game is indicative of what I think can happen today. Besides, I'll take an SEC West taking points any day of the bowl season.
Ole Miss in a 1/2-unit recommendation over TCU.
Under the totals because of the excellence of both defenses for 1/2-unit as well.

@EdgySam: #Stanford vs #Maryland, #ThePick Was...

@EdgySam gave out Stanford to his cleeps last night in a 1/2-unit recommendation. No recommendation on the totals, but, recommended a small parlay with the over and Ole Miss.

@EdgySam: #LSU vs. #Notre Dame, #ThePick ( a 1-unit! )

The no-doubt-about-it better defense, and the most powerful "conference" in the FBS, the SEC West, add up to a 1-unit play on LSU.
Much like yesterday's A&M - West Virginia game, don't see how a new QB ( Zaire ) will be able to do anything vs. this good SEC West defense.
Gave out under and LSU in a small, fun parlay, but, not a recommendation. I think Tigers might get a lot of the total all by themselves.

@EdgySam: #Arkansas vs #Texas, #ThePick

When in doubt, take the team from the SEC West. Arkansas beat LSU and Ole Miss in consecutive weeks, and played all of their SEC foes close, except for Auburn early in the year. In fact, Razorback lost to Alabama by only 1 point. Also, in each of their non-SEC contests, Arkansas romped.
I think a lot of good things await Texas under HC Strong, but, not tonight.
I gave out Arkansas in a 1/2 unit play.

@EdgySam: #Oklahoma vs #Clemson, #ThePick

Clemson the better defense, I believe, in this ACC/ Big 12 matchup. The problem is the Tigers dual threat at QB, freshman Watson, is out. I have no trust in starting QB Stoudt. Without a running game to go with the immobile Stoudt, I don't know how Clemson will keep up with Oklahoma. Tiger defense is good, but, I don't think they are so good they'll overcome their offensive inefficiencies.
I gave out Oklahoma in a 1/2-unit play for my cleeps. Because I've been very strong with my sides, and, not so much with totals, I made an if recommendation with Oklahoma on top. If Sooners win or push, action on the under for the same 1/2-unit.
