Want To Make Money? Bet On The Hawks

Big 10's Best Bet

The thing about sports wagering is you have to be able to ride the highs and lows.  Teams are a lot like stocks and you have to look at the overall performance over a course of time, not just one week.

Are you going to win every week with one team?  I doubt it but any good financial adviser will tell you invest for the long term not the short.  Check out this blog post by Mike Hlas of the Cedar Rapids Gazette.

Before the Husker fans get fired up, Bo Pelini is a pretty safe bet as well.

When it comes to handicapping information look for our "Views From Vegas" column from Scott Spreitzer.  You can also hear Scott Friday morning on my radio show, TNT in the mornings on 1460 KXNO in Des Moines and listen live at www.kxno.com
