THE BEST CONTEST ON THE INTERNET IS BACK!!!!!

Once again, this will be a simple contest to participate in. Each week I will list all of the underdogs in the Div 1-A games that I see a point-spread for at the beginning of the week. Each person may pick 1 and only 1 team each week; just post your pick in this thread.

You must pick your team before the kickoff of your game. It isn't mandatory to make a pick every week, but if you don't, you obviously can't earn any points that week.

If your team wins, you are awarded the amount of points that they were assigned in the spread; if they lose you get 0 points. So it's riskier to pick Little-Sisters-of-the-Poor +47 when they play Texas Tech, but you get a ton of points if they win, as opposed to getting only a couple of points when you pick a close game.

Once I post the point spreads inside this thread, they are locked for purposes of this contest. Only the spreads listed in this thread will be used to award points.

The entire season-long contest will exist in this one thread. Each week I will post the points for that week and the season-to-date totals. Whoever has the most points after the Conference Championship Games in December will be declared the winner, and will receive ¤25,000 Sportsbook "cash".

There will be a separate contest in December for Bowl game upsets.

Season Prop Bets

Before last season the Buckeyes averaged 5 offensive touchdowns per game for 6 consecutive seasons

If they play 16 games this year, 5 offensive touchdowns per game means 80 on the year

O/U 80 offensive touchdowns this year?

'Pitbull Stadium' comes to Miami as recording sensation, FIU agree to wide-ranging five-year, $6 million deal​

The international recording artist will pay $1.2 million per year to FIU for the stadium naming rights​

FIU has reached an agreement with recording artist Pitbull for naming rights to its football stadium in Miami. Pitbull will pay the university $1.2 million per year over the next five years as the venue will be called "Pitbull Stadium." He will also have an option to renew the agreement for an additional five years.

This is believed to be the first naming rights agreement of its kind between a musician and a football stadium. Pitbull is often associated with the city of Miami -- going as far as nicknaming himself "Mr. 305" in reference to the Miami area code -- which makes a partnership between him and the only FBS team to play in Miami city limits a logical one.

FIU has been searching for relevance in the highly competitive market since adopting an FBS football program in 2005. In 20 years, the Panthers have only four seasons where they finished above .500. However, coach Mike MacIntyre has been creative in finding ways to bring any level of excitement to the program. Last season, the Panthers released universally beloved "Miami Vice" inspired uniforms, which they donned in their game against UTEP. The program is 8-16 in two seasons under MacIntyre.

As part of the deal, Pitbull will create an anthem for FIU athletics, post on social media about FIU 12 times per year and appear at one fundraising event. In return, Pitbull will get fee-free use of the stadium for 10 days per year with a number of tickets put aside for FIU students. He also gets the right to designate a performer at halftime or postgame of a home game if he wishes.

Ohio State adding Kansas State transfer guard Ques Glover to bolster backcourt depth​

After losing Taison Chatman to a season-ending knee injury, Ohio State is adding veteran guard Ques Glover for the 2024-25 season.

Glover, who played 99 games in four seasons split between Florida and Samford (with a brief stop at BYU), joins the Buckeyes after a year spent at Kansas State, where he missed the entire 2023-24 season with a knee injury. A native of Knoxville, Tennessee, Glover averaged a career-high 19.2 points per game in his first year at Samford, where he was a first-team all-Southern Conference pick and a finalist for the Lou Henson Award, given out annually to the nation’s top mid-major player.

This will be Glover’s sixth year of college basketball. After playing four seasons, Glover was eligible for a medical redshirt last season, allowing him to now use the extra year of eligibility afforded to everyone who participated in the 2020-21 season to play for the Buckeyes.

A member of the 2019 recruiting class, Glover was a three-star prospect rated No. 366 nationally according to the 247Sports.com composite. He’s listed as a 6-0, 185-pound guard on Kansas State’s roster.

Glover is expected to give first-year coach Jake Diebler another experienced option in the backcourt. Third-year guard Bruce Thornton and fifth-year South Carolina transfer Meechie Johnson Jr. will assume the bulk of the minutes with freshman John “Juni” Mobley Jr. and Oakland and San Diego State transfer Micah Parrish expected to also play key roles.

Chatman’s injury, though, created a need for another roster addition. Although lightly used as a freshman, Chatman had seen more playing time with Diebler in place of Chris Holtmann and was poised for a more significant role as a sophomore before suffering a torn ACL early in summer workouts.

Former Kansas State Guard Ques Glover Commits to Ohio State, Replenishes Team's Backcourt Depth​

Ohio State has replenished its backcourt depth with a late transfer addition.

Former Kansas State, Samford and Florida guard Ques Glover committed to the Buckeyes out of the transfer portal and will spend his final year of collegiate basketball playing for Jake Diebler in Columbus.

Glover updated his Instagram account on Monday to reflect that he is now a Buckeye, and an Ohio State spokesperson confirmed that Glover had joined the team.


Glover will not be one of Ohio State’s 13 scholarship players this season. However, he will receive NIL compensation that covers his costs for attending the university.

Ohio State brings aboard Croatian center Ivan Njegovan​

Login to view embedded media
Njegovan, on the other hand, will arrive at Ohio State with four years of eligibility remaining. He’ll turn 20 on Sept. 18. Hailing from Zadar, Croatia, he’s played the last three seasons in the ABA and Croatian Premier Leagues, including for KK Bosco in the Favbet Premier League, otherwise known as the top level of Croatian professional basketball.

In 20 games with KK Bosco during the 2023-24 season, Njegovan averaged 8.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per contest.

This summer, Njegovan took part in the U20 European Championships for the Croatian National Team. He averaged 6.1 points and 6.6 rebounds per outing. That seven-game stretch culminated in an impressive performance against Bulgaria on July 21, during which he piled up 15 points, 16 rebounds and three blocks.

Njegovan will compete for playing time in the frontcourt this season at Ohio State with Kentucky transfer Aaron Bradshaw, Duke transfer Sean Stewart and returning sophomore Austin Parks. Now the Buckeyes have three pure centers in Bradshaw, Parks and Njegovan.

Colorado State coach Jay Norvell accuses Ole Miss, Texas A&M of tampering with star WR Tory Horton​

Jay Norvell called out several Power Four programs for trying to poach his star players.​

College football coaches are becoming increasingly vocal in directly calling out tampering as the issue remains persistent in the transfer portal era. Colorado State head coach Jay Norvell most recently accused two SEC programs of trying to poach star wide receiver Tory Horton, who is one of the top returning players in the country at that position in 2024.

"I've had every team in America try to take Tory Horton from us," Norvell said this week at Mountain West Media Days. "From Texas A&M to Ole Miss, I mean, they've all been on him."

Tampering is prohibited under NCAA regulations, but the lack of enforcement against power programs is a growing concern. Norvell discussed the challenge Group of Five schools face in keeping top players from entering the transfer portal and leaving for opportunities at Power Four programs.

"If our elite players can stay in this conference, we can send a lot of really good players to the National Football League," Norvell continued. "Like I said, because of the way we recruit — we're recruiting NFL players. We're fighting like hell to keep them at our school for the next four years. If we can do that, we're gonna be pretty good. But that's the challenge. I think the running back at Boise (State), I think Tory Horton, those guys are as good as you want to find in the country at their positions. I really believe that."

Horton ranked 11th nationally in receiving yards per game (94.7) last season. He caught 96 passes for 1,136 yards and eight touchdowns for Colorado State. Horton led the Mountain West in receptions and finished second in yards receiving.

Norvell also mentioned Colorado State quarterback Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi received a sizable offer to transfer to a Big 12 school.

"He said a guy from Kansas State called him, offered him $600,000 because they lost their quarterback, if he got in the portal," Norvell said. "And I'm not accusing Kansas State of anything. I'm just telling you what the kid told me. If they don't want their name thrown in it, I think they should probably get a handle on their people. But there's a lot of that going on in college football, and that's just the way things are right now."

Dillon Gabriel passes Beck, Ewers as Heisman favorite​

Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel is now the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy with +750 odds at ESPN BET after moving past Georgia quarterback Carson Beck and Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers in an atypical July change for college football's highest honor.

Top Heisman Trophy Odds​

Beck and Ewers, who had been the favorites since February, are +800 and +900, respectively.

Gabriel began July with 10-1 odds at ESPN BET. He had been as long as 14-1 at other sportsbooks before an uptick of action showed up on the Ducks quarterback over the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

The SuperBook in Las Vegas started receiving bets on Gabriel on Sunday, causing his odds to tighten from 14-1 to 9-1.

"I think there were some maybe influential people that hopped on it and said they liked it on some public spaces," Chase Michaelson, oddsmaker for the SuperBook, told ESPN. "It's people we respect that like Gabriel, and I think there are lots of reasons to like him."

Gabriel has put up gaudy numbers at Oklahoma and UCF. He passed for 3,660 yards with 30 touchdowns and six interceptions with the Sooners last season before transferring to Oregon, where he inherits what's expected to be an explosive Ducks offense.

More money has been bet on Gabriel to win the Heisman than any other player at ESPN BET. At BetMGM sportsbooks, the senior has attracted more than twice as much money as any other player offered in the Heisman odds since July 4.

Gabriel, at +750, would have the longest odds of any Heisman favorite entering the season in the past 15 years, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.

Blake Anderson's Potential Departure at Utah State Due to Title IX Investigation​

Utah State head football coach Blake Anderson was informed by university officials of their intent to terminate his contract for cause, the school announced on Tuesday. Anderson has 14 days to formally respond to the contract action.

Per the release, Anderson violated his employment agreement and university policy related to Title IX in the spring of 2023. Utah State's decision to terminate Anderson's employment came after "a thorough external review of alleged noncompliance with university policies that implement Title IX, which require full and timely reporting of disclosures of sexual misconduct—including domestic violence—and prohibit employees from investigating disclosures of sexual misconduct themselves."

Utah State also dismissed deputy athletic director Jerry Bovee and director of player development & community Austin Albrecht as a result of the investigation.

In a joint e-mail sent to faculty and staff at Utah State on Tuesday, school president Betsy Cantwell and director of athletics Diana Sabau detailed the reasoning for their decision.

"As leaders, we are responsible for ensuring allegations of USU policy violations are investigated," the e-mail said. "Today's actions are a result of a thorough external investigation, and we believe the evidence demands immediate action. Our job is to fearlessly hold ourselves and others accountable for their conduct and to make sure that, for the sake of our students and our community, we are living the values of our university. While recognizing the impact of these decisions on our student athletes and football program, we will continue to take the steps necessary to deliver a respectful, transparent and winning culture at Utah State University."

The news of Anderson's impending termination came on the heels of the 55-year-old being placed on administrative leave, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel. Thamel was first to report that Anderson was not expected to return as the program's coach, and that defensive coordinator Nate Dreiling has been named the interim coach.

Anderson went 23–17 at Utah State, which included a 2021 season that saw the program go 11–3 while capturing the Mountain West title.

1983 NC State title team members sue NCAA over NIL compensation​

Jun 10, 2024
Ten players from NC State's 1983 national champion basketball team have sued the NCAA and the Collegiate Licensing Company seeking compensation for unauthorized use of their name, image and likeness.

The players filed suit in Wake County Superior Court on Monday, requesting a jury trial and "reasonable compensation."

The late Jim Valvano's 1983 team became known as the "Cardiac Pack" for a series of close victories culminating in a 54-52 win over Houston on Lorenzo Charles' dunk in the final seconds. Valvano's run around the court became an iconic moment frequently replayed as part of NCAA tournament promotions.

"For more than 40 years, the NCAA and its co-conspirators have systematically and intentionally misappropriated the Cardiac Pack's publicity rights -- including their names, images, and likenesses -- associated with that game and that play, reaping scores of millions of dollars from the Cardiac Pack's legendary victory," the lawsuit said.

NCAA spokesperson Michelle Hosick did not immediately return a text message seeking comment Monday from The Associated Press.

Plaintiffs include former team members Thurl Bailey, Alvin Battle, Walt Densmore, Tommy DiNardo, Terry Gannon, George McClain, Cozell McQueen, Walter Proctor, Harold Thompson and Mike Warren.

Basketball players sue NCAA over NIL use in March Madness promos​

Jul 2, 2024
Sixteen former men's college basketball players, including Kansas stars Mario Chalmers and Sherron Collins, UConn guard Ryan Boatright and Arizona guard Jason Terry, have sued the NCAA and multiple conferences for the unauthorized use of their name, image and likeness in March Madness highlights.

Chalmers hit a 3-pointer with 2.1 seconds left to tie Memphis and force overtime in the 2008 national championship game. After Chalmers made one of the most dramatic shots in NCAA men's basketball history, the Jayhawks dominated the Tigers in overtime to win 75-68 for their first national championship in 20 seasons.

Defendants in the class-action lawsuit, which was filed Monday in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York, also includes the Big East, Pac-12, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC, ACC and Turner Sports Interactive.

"Mario Chalmers, Sherron Collins, and other members of the 2008 Kansas Jayhawks National Championship men's basketball team have been paid nothing by the NCAA or its partner TSI for the continued use of their names, images and likenesses in promoting and monetizing March Madness," the lawsuit said. "The same is true for thousands of former NCAA athletes across all sports whose names, images, and likenesses are continuing to be displayed for commercial purposes by the NCAA, its member conferences, and its partners such as TSI."

The lawsuit accused the defendants of "systematically and intentionally" misappropriating the plaintiffs' publicity rights while "reaping scores of millions of dollars from Plaintiffs and similarly situated class members' participation in competition."

The lawsuit accused the NCAA and the other defendants of violating the federal Sherman Antitrust Act through unreasonable restraint of trade, group boycott and refusal to deal.

"The NCAA has for decades leveraged its monopoly power to exploit student-athletes from the moment they enter college until long after they end their collegiate careers," the lawsuit said. "The NCAA has conspired with conferences, colleges, licensing companies, and apparel companies to fix the price of student-athlete labor near zero and make student-athletes unwitting and uncompensated lifetime pitchmen for the NCAA."

The NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament, also known as March Madness, first aired on national television in 1963 when Sports Network Incorporated (SNI) broadcast the championship game in prime time.

Just sayin': Well the 1983 & 2008 "March Madness" (i.e. NCAA Basketball Tournament) NIL compensation lawsuits are in. Since the NCAA Basketball Tournament (aka March madness) started being televised in in 1963 (2024 - 1963 = 61) only 59 more potential NIL compensation lawsuits to go......
