On the other hand Hedgie will try and hit

This button tonight;

Tonight on ESPN2 La Tech host Hawaii in a sneaky Gamblers Special.

La Tech is 1-2 but 0-2 against spread while Hawaii makes another long trip and is 2-1 and 2-0 against the spread. The line opened La Tech -2.5 and since then gamblers are betting the home team as hawaii announced starting RT out and fad the far traveling road team. The line is now up to La TEch -5.5 in most spots. Hedgie sees value here with the DOG. Hawaii traveled to Dallas after practioce monday and practiced at local Trinity High School tuesday. It appears to be an immportant game for Hawaii based on reprts from The Honolulu Advisor. Coach Maklin said "This is an important ballgame for us. I feel a big responsibility for us to represent the team, our staff, and the people of Hawaii" . Another player said :

"This is a big step for us to play Louisiana Tech," linebacker Blaze Soares said. "It's going to define our season. Either we make it or break it. It's for all of the marbles."

Therefore HAWAII + 5.5 tonight 2 stars

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

After going 10-3 star weighted this weekend , hedgie going to PASS on this game. For those who MUST here are a few angles that may or may not help:

Line opened Cowboys -9 & 46.5 O/U NOW: -8 & 48
Betting public is 92% on backing the dog
Early wagers also 90% on the OVER
John Fox and Panthers used to be great road dogs. But since 2007 Fox teams 5-8 ATS
Both teams went OVER in their first 2 games. Thus the line moving higher....

A couple other notes: Brett Farve's pass still could NOT COVER vs Niners. But if you missed it it's worth watching :








Plus, WHO'S THE NFL'S WORST OWNER ?? TOO EASY.....

HEDGIE WEEK 2 HEROES & HORSES'

** Hedgie thanks TG for editing and content input this week **


NFL MAN UP award: Jeff Reed, Pittsburgh Steelers
“I’m just embarrassed, you know, because these guys fight their tails off to wind the game. If there is one player that can single-handedly lose the game, I’ll take credit for it.”


Jeff missed 2X44 yard FG’s in Q4 of the Steeler’s 17-14 loss to Chicago.







NFL PRECISION ACCURACY Award: Kurt Warner broke the NFL’s single game completion percentage record after going 24 of 26 yards with 2 TD passes.




92.3% ACCURATE…no anesthesia, no gloves.







QUOTE of the WEEK Award:
Knickname: “SHUTDOWN” NEON DEION RANK: one of the top 3 Cornerbacks in NFL
"If he went to the bathroom, I went too. I covered him any way I could. When he went to the sideline...I sat right across from him wherever he was sitting on the bench.”










JETS Darelle Revis on covering PATRIOT Randy Moss



SAY WHAT AGAIN?!?!?! AWARD:

"All week he was talking about being a shutdown corner, but there really are no shutdown corners in the league because they have help most of the game. I probably could be a shutdown corner if I had (Patriots S Brandon) Meriweather over the top for the whole game. I think I could be a corner."- Randy Moss




“CHEEEEEEEEEEAP CHEEAP CHEEEEAP” AWARD:
Didja know that Eric Mangini, Head Coach of the Cleveland Browns, was fined $25,000 of the $125,000 the Jets had to pay for NOT putting Brett Favre on the disabled list during the final month of last season. Didja know he just fined one of his players $1,701 for not paying for a $3 water bottle he drank in his hotel room during a preseason road trip





TWITTER TWITS:
On Monday, Redskins Head Zorn released a statement rebuking the rookie linebacker Robert Henson "All you fake half hearted Skins fan can . . . I won't go there but I dislike you very strongly, don't come to Fed Ex to boo dim wits!! The question is who are you to say you know what's best for the team and you work 9 to 5 at Mcdonalds."


NFL IN SPANISH:
Porque le queremos a Seňor Ochocinco?(why do we love Mr. Ochocinco?)
Porque el tiene cojones!



THE LAMBEAU LEAP....AS PROMISED



ON TO HANDICAPPING - PASS on Tonights OLE MISS/South Carolina GAme. Ole Miss opened as 3 point favorites and is now being bet up to - 4.5
Hedgie will be personally scouting the Giants/Bucs game this sunday so all weekend plays will be released by Friday night ....GOOD LUCK !

Hedgie Monday

A decent Saturday 4-2 star weight but not a very good Sunday. Weekend record 5-7 Star weighted. hedgie will figure out the NFL soon enough...... leaning on UNDER 42.5 for Fish/Colts Monday Night matchup but going to pass since the O/U's are not hitting right now....

Only Sunday NFL winner was Ravens +3 RAY RAY always there when you need him....

Hedgie Sunday

Saturday SWEEP !   6-0 star weighted.......Let's keep it going

Houston Texans -4     1 STAR       Rookie Qb gets first real start on road. Sanchez looked so so vs vanilla defensive schemes in preseason.   

Rams +7 1/2      2 STARS     Steven Jackson is healthy , Bulger will start and this is simply too many points for a divisional matchup with Seattle not 100% healthy

Niners +6   at Cards   2 STARS this divisional matchup has been hardly contested the past few years. singletary has his team believing while the cards may be due for a superbowl hangover. the last 9 superbowl runner ups are 0-9 against spread on opening week

College Football Saturday & TWITTER

Thank you Clemson Tigers....after falling behind 21-0 early at Ga Tech the Tigers fought back and made it a close one 27-30. 11 out of last 14 now decided by 5 pts or less.....

The Hedgie will now be on Twitter.  Ocassionally there will be halftime wagers and adjustments that might be hard to update on the site.  Thursday and Monday Nights games especially....speaking of Twitter the NFL has adopted a new rule for players.  No players are allowed to 'tweet' 90 minutes before or after each game. Ocho Cinco Tweets and says he has found a loophole. Hedgie will watch this closely ...a handicapping angle??   hmmm

Another Handicap Angle - NEW RULE - no more WEDGES on kickoff returns . How will this affect lines ?  Perhaps worse starting field position for many teams. Does this equal less points?  more unders?   stay tuned for future analysis....

SATURDAY PLAYS:

UCONN +4   vs UNC     2 stars      UNC has 2 players out with swine flu. take the home dog

DUKE +1  at Army      1 star      Duke better players  . will bounce back after tough loss last week

OHIO ST  +7  vs USC    3 stars     hedgie has not met ONE person who likes Ohio St.  Everyone looks for same embarrassing result as last yr. Well, Ohio St has been preparing for this all summer. You say they stunk vs Navy.  They looked ahead. It's natural. And navy is a good team with very unorthodox system that's hard to prepare for.   USC loses many starters to the NFL and brings a freshman starting QB into hostile territory with 105,000 screaming fans.  This game will be a close one ! 


The Hedgie has ALOT to say.....(tomorrow)


In OBSERVANCE Of 9 - 11....

Thursday, September 10, 2009

NFL Thursday Night game (S).....be careful


What a game on deck. Many angles.....fade the super bowl public favorite ? take the road dog getting +6 in what looks to be a low scorer? Titans won last year 31-14 in Tennessee. Revenge for Steelers here? Do Titans have Steelers Number? Hedgie's chompin to make a play but will use extreme discipline and wait til sunday. not dippping toe in this water tonight....

On the other hand, there's a good college game on at 745pm. Clemson vs Ga Tech - 4.5 The last 13 games , 10 of them have been decided by 5 points for fewer. Clemson has maybe the best defense in the ACC this year so expect a very close game. TIGERS + 4.5 1 unit

Friday, September 4, 2009

First Plays of the Season..




WAKE FOREST - 2.5 1 star




Senior QB Riley Skinner led the ACC last yr in pass completion with 74% and his entire O-Line returns intact Tough spot for Baylor who must travel cross country for opener


VA TECH +7 1 star

QB Greg Mcelroy makes his debut for Bama vs an aggressive Hokie defense and Bud Foster. This game is the lowest posted total for week 1 at 38 and 7 points here is a lot of value in what shoudl be a low scoring affair

THE HEDGIE IS BACK


It's that time again. The first play of the season will be College this saturday....
