Wisconsin +7 5 stars
After an embarrassing 59-0 loss to Ohio State and the Head Coach Anderson's surprising defection to Oregon State The Badger's Seniors requested AD Barry Alvarez to coach them in their Bowl Game. The Hedgie believes this team will be highly motivated and prepared for this one.
""We all want to win it for him," running back Melvin Gordon said. "... I feel like we owe him, especially the class that was with him for the Rose Bowl. I feel like we owe him one. We kinda let him down there and he's been working us pretty hard. He wants us to be ready and I feel like we are."
Wisconsin's seniors asked Alvarez, the Badgers' athletics director, to serve as the interim coach for the bowl game. He had no desire to do it, but decided to honor the seniors' request."
Auburn's top playmaker WR Williams will be sitting out this game as well. Take the motivated Badgers in a possible outright win. BADGERS +7 5 stars

The Arizona Cardinals get no respect at home. They are 14-3 at home their last 17 games . The Rams are banged up and play their 3rd straight road game. Tough spot. You can get the Cards -6.5 in a few spots as well

Raider will give max effort at home vs a divisional rival in a low scoring dogfight.

Hedgie has a 5 Star….
Last weekend against Utah , Michigan HC Brady Hoke and DC Greg Mattison were seen arguing at the end of the first half. Due to numerous turnovers Michigan lost 26-10 and the boo birds have come out in full force. Michigan is off to a slow start and has committed 10 turnover in 3 games…but here comes the visiting Gophers of Minnesota and that's a welcome sign for the Wolverines. Last yr as 19 point favorites Michigan Won and covered 42-13. If there's any 'get well' game or time to turn things around it's NOW. Due to last week's loss and an embarrassing loss at ND Michigan is installed as an only 12.5 pt favorite. They still have a strong defense and Minnesota limps in with a struggling offense and 2nd string QB. The Hedgie predicts a final score Mich 34 - Minn 13
Michigan -12.5 5 stars
Washington +7.5 3 stars

stay tuned for potential more picks by 1pm kickoff.....some notes to consider: chargers travel west and have an early kickoff after a physical game vs seahawks..are the bills for real? vegas sharps are on both sides......rob bironas died in a tragic car accident last night ..although he wasnt a titan will his loss affect the titans mentality? joe flacco has not fared well vs pettitne and his defenses in the past....but they've had extra time since thurs night and is the ravens offense acclimating to the uptempo of kubiak?? seahawks are 16-4 against spread at home last 20.....

Thursday night Football
Bill Snyder is one of the all time best underdog coaches. K state has a good team this year too. But Hedgie is a bit weary of Auburn as well. They are a very good team and may pull away late in the game. This game will be full of emotion from the home team as this was sold out 3 months ago . The play is Kansas State FIRST HALF +4 2 stars
Also, Bucs +7 at kickoff 1 star - line is moving up and good value at +7
Monday, September 15, 2014
Sunday, September 14, 2014
Hedgie Week 2 Picks
Redskins -5.5 4 stars - Jay Gruden debut at home and although RG3 hasn't looked sharp the redskins should be able to move the ball on the ground with Alfred Morris which will set up some big plays downfield for a dinged up Jags team without Starting Safety Cyprion (also no Cecil Shorts again)
Cinci -5 1 star - Falcons look like they are back but they come into cinci today WITHOUT BOTH STARTING TACKLES. Bengals are 9-0 at home past year and should be able to put this one away
Niners -7 2 stars - the Bears are also dinged up. They are struggling vs the run on Defense and have Oline problems . TO make matter worse both WRs Marshall and Jeffrey are dinged up and 75% they will not play
Seahawks -5.5 - 1 star hedgie usually likes the divisional home dog but the seahawks have had 9 days rest , looked great opening week and the chargers are coming off a monday night game where they lose their starting center (harwick ) for the season.
Saints -5.5 - 1 star another spot where hedgie likes to play a home dog but not today. Saints have been bad on the road on grass but the browns offense is struggling and will be without starting rb Tate and star TE Cameron Jordan. To much to overcome vs a Saints team that has a potent offense and need to get its first W
Teaser : Bucs pickem & UNDER 38 Rams are down to their 3rd Qb in Austin Davis who is clearly not ready to start in the NFL. The Bucs struggled as well last week bit should be able to right the ship at home
OTHER HEDGIE NOTES/ LEANS:
Hedgie was leaning Vikes at home before the AP news...
HEdgie was trying to catch Lions +3 but with news that Panthers end Hardy is deactivated that makes this line a picked now
Hedgie was trying to get Cardinals +3 but when Palmer became deactivated thats a 'pass'
NO weather to be concerned of...ALL GAMES TODAY ARE OUTDOORS which is unusual but only storms in tampa and heat in san diego and san fran
Good Luck

HEDGIE NFK WEEK 1
BUCS -2.5 3 STARS - Panther's Oline is rebuilding, they lost their top Wrs in the offseason and Cam Newton starting with sore ribs.
EAGS/JAGS UNDER 52 3 STARS- Gus Bradley's team played good defense down the stretch last season and with No Cecil Shorts the Jags offense will be limited
TEASER: BEARS -1/2 & OVER 41.5 1 STAR
Some line moves to be aware of :
- the Saints opened as +2.5 underdogs a few weeks back and all the money is now pouring in on them as hype builds. they are now -3 favorites on the road....vale may lie with the home dog now
- Bucs/Panthers Total has dropped from 39.5 to 37.5 - vegas experts are expecting a low scoring opener here with Lovie Smith at the helm in Tampa
- Money is in on the Titans making that line from Chiefs -6 a month ago to Chiefs -3 now in many spots. Value now with Chiefs?? There's hype with new HC Whisenhunt but opeing on road in KC might not be Titans best spot
- Money is in on Dallas as the line went from +6 to +4 now. Niners have some suspensions and drama but Dallas also showed zero defense this preseason ..what gives? OVER 51?
best of luck this season ! - Hedgie

Conference Championships
Hedgie Sees points in this game and although vegas set a high line Denver's Offensive weapons are all healthy and create major matchup issues. With both defenses ailing this game should fly OVER the total. The Patriots may have a strong running game but will be forced to throw if behind and wil most likely utilize it's no huddle offense to combat the away crowd
Hedgie likes: OVER 56.5 3 stars
Teaser:Denver +1.5 & Over 50 1 star
1st TD : Julius Thomas 8/1
Hedgie thinks Russ Wilson will once again prove slippery and play a good game. Doug Baldwin is a matchup problem for the Niners with Carlos Rogers most likely trying to cover him as a nickel back coming off a hamstring problem. Most think this game will be low scoring and Vegas has set it at 39. But Hedgie expects a couple new wrinkles and 1-2 explosive plays :

NFL Playoffs SUNDAY PLAY LISTED AS WELL...
In December the Seahawks destroyed the Saints and embarrassed them jumping out to a 17-0 lead. One of the keys to that game was KJ Wright (Seahawks LB) who did an awesome job covering Graham. This matchup is different...KJ Wright is out of this game after undergoing foot surgery and the Saints are playing better in general with confidence and a more established run game. All the money is in on the Seahawks and the line has jumped from -7.5 to .9.5 and -10 in some spots.... Hedgie sees Jimmy Graham making a couple big leaping plays to keep this game close... It's supposed to be rainy and an under play is a lean as well....with these current lines the hedgie will buy the hook and take :
SAINTS +10 3 stars
AND....TEASER: SAINTS +15 & UNDER 50.5 1 star
SAINTS +10 3 stars
AND....TEASER: SAINTS +15 & UNDER 50.5 1 star

NFL Wildcard UPDATE (sunday)
Teaser : Colts +7.5 & over 41 2 stars
(late game post at 7 pm)
Another Teaser: Saints +9 & UNDER 61.5 2 stars
vegas has an already high total on this game but in the cold weather outdoors on grass the saints will need to run the ball with Ingram and keep the Eags offesne off the field. The Eagles in the meantime have a sneaky run game averaging 160 yards per game. Might catch late extra value with the shootout in Indy with bettors sticking with the 'over ' theme. The line has crept up from 54 to 55.5 in some spots already....
Hedgie Predicts: Saints 27 Eagles 24
Bengals/Chargers - hedgie is passing....sharp money is on the chargers +7 but hedgie just doesnt see it here...so passing.....will post later today on the late game....
Packers +3.5 (-120) 2 stars
