Fab 4 (plus 1):

We’ve had an excellent run here at the Fab 4 (plus 1), because we remember a couple of basics. One, if a line looks too good to be true, it normally is. Two, play what you know and what you think you know and know what you think really doesn’t matter. (We promise that made sense we we started.)

Look for numbers and match-ups and possible scenarios that make the most sense. And remember, since these are picks against the spread and they are for entertainment purposes only, only risk the amount of entertainment with which you are comfortable. Let’s keep it safe out there. Get the papers, get the papers.

After last week’s 4-1 mark, we’re an extremely profitable 39-16-2 this year. Not too shabby. Sadly, we do not get a good vibe from tonight’s Virginia-UNC game since we’ve hit the last four Thursday night picks. UVa-UNC though feels a lot like driving down Market Street and throwing a $50 bill out the window and hoping it comes back a $100.

Speaking of investment opportunities, if you had bet $100 on the UT and the over to start the season and let it ride each week, do you know that you’d have $102,400 riding on the Vols and Vandy scoring more than 60 combined points this week. Yep, UT is a perfect 10-0 going over the total – SAAALLLLL!!! – one of only two teams that we have found to be perfect this picking season. (Utah State is a perfect 10-0 against the spread this year, too.)
