Betting College Baseball

And then there were two. No, not talking about me and Nick... we're talking about Tennessee and Texas A&M. In the ACC vs SEC invitational played in Omaha, Nebraska, the SEC prevailed with Volunteers and the Aggies advancing to the best of three series that starts on Saturday. Despite hailing from the same conference, these two teams did not meet in the regular season due to both residing in se...

Welcome to Omaha! Not, really. Nick is still out in Tennessee and I'm still in California but the Omaha eight is set, otherwise known as the ACC - SEC invitation with four teams hailing from the Atlantic Coast Conference and the other 4 coming from the South Eastern Conference. Tales of this being the year of the mid-major College World Series champion have been greatly exaggerated. Virginia and N...

We've gone from the Field of 64 Regionals and are now down to the Sweet 16 advancing to the Super Regionals. Tennessee survived the curse of the No. 1 overall seed and takes on this year's Cinderella, the Evansville Purple Aces. I'm sure we will hear a lot of about that one seeing how our very own Nick Hathcoat lives in Faragut, Tennessee the next town over from Knoxville but also played for the A...

Today's show is a bit different in that we're now in the post-season with just 64 teams on the road to Omaha with eyes on making it to the college world series. The regional hosts and the brackets have been announced since then, our group that we have assembled have been hard at work analyzing potential match-ups, starting pitchers and anything else that can give them and you, as a college basebal...

It's Friday, May 24th and we are three days into conference tournament season with three days to go before we find out the Field of 64 with a chance to get to Omaha. But we're not here to talk about college baseball in general. We're here to give you the insight and knowledge to help you bet on the games today and into the weekend. We last released an episode on Wednesday so we will recap how we f...

Conference tournaments started yesterday to some mixed results. It was apparent that some teams knew they were already solidly into the NCAA tournament while other were scratching and clawing their way off the bubble and a good showing in their conference tournament can help the selection committee make their decision. In today's episode we'll recap how some of our picks fared, including a clean 6...

A late start today due to the lions share of weekend series starting on Thursday and going through Saturday ahead of the start of weekend conferences. We needed a bit more time to research and confirm starting pitchers before handing out betting advice. Highlights include: 🎙️ Leans for Thursday, May 16 (3:42) 🎙️ Plays for Friday, May 10 (14:10) 🎙️ News nuggets to keep an eye on this weekend (29:46...

After two weeks of skipping Tuesday episodes, one due to traveling and the other due to the books not putting out lines, we're back to recording on this Tuesday, May 14, 2024. Looking ahead to this weekend, this is the final slate of series on the docket within conference play for a lot of conferences before conference tournaments crank up and end before memorial Day, selection Monday. But before...

We're recording this a little later than normal because, well, the sports book released their lines a little bit later than normal. Never the less, we're going to hunt some value and see if the books made any mistakes when putting out those lines and see if we can't provide you listeners with some games and match ups to target for this Friday, May 10th. Last episode we recorded on Wednesday with a...

Today's episode will be a bit different in that we are recording on Wednesday morning when we typically put out Mid-week content on Tuesdays. Also different, we don't have any leans or picks because the Wednesday slate leaves a little to be desired with only a handful of games that the betting public may have an interest in are on the docket. The main reason is that none of the sports books have r...

Apologies to those expecting a mid-week podcast this past Tuesday. Dave and his wife took a short vacation starting on Monday that actually brought them to Tennessee where Nick they all got to meet in person and take in a college baseball game together. Unfortunately, the Californians were the bad luck charm and the Tennessee Volunteers lost to Lipscomb with them in attendance, the first home mid-...

The month of April is nearly in the books and we're headed into the final weekend of college baseball series before opening up the stretch run into May. Last night, four games played that you could bet on with three of the four favorites winning easily. The lone outlier? The Virginia Cavaliers getting beat at Boston College, a game that was played in Fenway Park. Today's and Saturday's finale will...

This past weekend in college baseball a number of teams that had been cool for a while started to heat back up and demonstrated why betting on college baseball can be so volatile and frustrating for those betting on it. Wake Forest is a perfect example that after starting the season as the odds on favorite to win the College World Series , they end the month of March by getting swept at home no le...

We're on the back stretch of April with all eyes on Memorial Day weekend, which of course, is when the NCAA selection committee announces the field of 64 for the Road to Omaha. This is right around the time to look at those teams that may have cooled a bit lately to make a run and really test that 11 point 7 theory of beware of the hot-cold-hot teams But this is a podcast dedicated to betting coll...

This past weekend in college baseball befuddled a lot of college baseball bettors, include those of us on this show, truly testing handicapping abilities and testing even more the resolve to bet on this sport.  Highlights include: 🎙️ Recap of 4-1 Friday Podcast Picks (4:02) 🎙️ 6 Games to like on Tuesday 4/16/2024 (7:46) 🎙️ Mini Mid-week series (26:20) 🎙️ 2 Leans feeling most confident about  (28:4...

We're into the portion of the season where major conferences like the ACC and the SEC start conference series on Thursday, pushing those traditional Friday starters to start a day earlier. Two big series that started Thursday included the Florida State / Miami series and Missouri traveling to Athens to take on Georgia. The good news for those following AND tailing our co-host Nick Hathcoat on the...

Today's episode we're back on track to our normal schedule of recording on a Tuesday morning and will be back releasing our weekend preview episode on Friday. Last week, no Friday show as Nick was traveling back to Indiana but was able to log some wagers into the Action Network App for those of you following along on the app and on social media, you got to see those plays. In today's episode we wi...

Today's episode is a bit different in that we are recording on Wednesday, normally we record and publish shows on Tuesdays and Fridays, but we're doing today's show on a Wednesday.  We put out on X that rationale behind not having a Tuesday show mainly because the books put out the lines so late and more importantly, we didn't have any plays on any of the Tuesday slate of games. Something we alway...

It's Friday, March 29th and today's show is a bit different in that even though we are recording Friday morning, you're going to hear about pitchers and match ups that normally occur on Saturdays. That's because due to the Easter holiday on Sunday, the lion's share of series actually started yesterday on Thursday. Out on the West Coast, many series have been modified to account for another rain st...

This past weekend the Florida State Seminoles , the only remaining unbeaten team in college baseball in 2024, got swept at the hands of the Clemson Tigers . We'll take a look back at the weekend games and how we did in the sports books and also look to tonight's slate of game to see if we can target some value match ups and point you in the right direction. No plays as of the recording but a few l...

It's Friday, March 22 and today we'll take a look back at the Mid-week games Tuesday and Wednesday and we will check in and see how some of the Tuesday podcast picks did. We'll also take a closer look at some of the games going on today and possibly a few more on Saturday and through the weekend despite lines and totals not posted for those games just yet.  This is Episode 17 of the Betting Colleg...

Today's episode, Dave and Nick take a look back at the weekend slate of bets that had luke warm results but ultimately ended up being a losing weekend for the first time in the short history of this podcast.  Now that college baseball has opened up conference play across the country, the mid-week match-up slate is not as appetizing as it has been to open the season. Because sports books have been...

After a hot streak to open up the month of March saw picks on the pod go up +16 units, there was regression after Tuesday's show. All streaks must end but it was quite a ride. Dave and Nick discuss some leans for Friday, March 15th to keep an eye on and have picks to start the weekend series of conference play in college baseball. Highlights include: 🎙️ Retiring the Best Bet portion of the pod (3:...

Today's episode, Dave and Nick take a look back at the weekend slate of bets that included some marquee match-ups of conference foes. The guys also recap another successful week of betting and point out that if you have tailed since March 1st, listeners and followers would be up 16+ units in less than two weeks.  Nick also breaks down games he will be avoiding today along with leans he has but is...

Today's episode we'll take a look back at the mid-week games in college baseball and take a look at some leans and wagers to consider for Friday, March 8th.
