2025 Playbook Football Questions Interviews1. What is your primary style of handicapping?
I am mostly a spot handicapper. When the stats, trends, and a system of mine all match then it's a stronger selection.
2. What is your “golden rule” of handicapping?
Quality over Quantity. As players, we get to choose which games to wager on. Don't go chasing losses.
3. What is the first thing you look for when handicapping a game?
Value. Which teams have been winning the stats but losing ATS and Vice Versa.
4. Which team statistic do you value the most?
Net yards per play. Net yards per point.
5. What do you like the most about the expanded college football playoff?
More opportunities to find an edge that's not accounted for in the line.
6. Which college football team is most likely to win this season's playoff?
Texas
7. Biggest surprise college football team this season?
LSU & BYU
8. Biggest college football bust this season?
Texas A&M. Integrating a massive number of new players is incredibly difficult. The schedule is brutal (at Texas, at Florida, at Mizzou, Georgia, LSU, Notre Dame). If they go 8-4 or 9-3 with that roster/schedule, it will feel like a letdown. Highest bust potential due to extreme hype vs. schedule difficulty.
9. Which college football coach commands your attention from a handicapping perspective?
Mike Gundy. His .658 win percentage across 20 seasons is very impressive. His 12-6 Bowl record indicates he knows how to get teams ready after long layoffs. He is a master of the "backdoor cover" due to his aggressive style of coaching.
10. Which NFL team is most likely to win this season's Super Bowl?
Kansas City Chiefs. Best QB and head coach comb. Should be hungry after losing last year's Super Bowl.
11. Biggest surprise NFL team this season?
Chicago Bears. New head coach Ben Johnson will improve the offense and the defense should be a top 5 unit. I like Over 8.5 wins at +115.
12. Biggest NFL bust this season? Pittsburgh Steelers. They have quarterback uncertainties and a challenging schedule. The defense is getting long in the tooth.
13. Who is your favorite recording artist?
Bob Seger 14. What is your favorite song?
Still the Same (Bob Seger)
15. What is your favorite movie?
Too many to list.
16. What is your favorite meal? Any Italian meal.
