Calvin’s College Basketball Formula Picks: Saturday, December 14th, 2019
Tuesday’s picks were certainly not our best so far this season. In fact, it was our worst day of the season. A 4-10 record is hard to swallow but unfortunately, if you bet long enough, days like those are inevitable. As any good sports bettor will tell you, it’s time to shake it off and move forward. So let’s do just that.
It’s another bid Saturday lineup and I got just 13 picks on the day but that is plenty of opportunities to pocket some cash. As bad as Tuesday was, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were all solid in limited action (combined record of 11-7 in those days). Let’s keep the turnaround going with a big day today!
Listen to the Sharp Edges Podcast hosted by myself and Brandon Wittmeyer each week. This week Brandon and I discussed the only NCAAF game of the week (Army/Navy), some NFL picks and UFC 245 action as well. Another solid episode with a ton of excellent picks. Listen in and hear for yourself.
