NCAA Conference Tournaments
The big March Madness tournament doesn’t tip off until next week, but college hoops has taken center stage for the next few days, as the Conference Tournaments are in full swing. NCAA bettors are in their glory with all the action.

The Big East is stacked with quality teams. Georgetown comes in as the top seed. They play their first game Thursday morning against Villanova. The Hoyas are five-point favorites over a ‘Nova team that handily win their first game on Wednesday, beating DePaul.
I kinda like the Hoyas to cover the points in this tilt.

There are a ton of threads going strong in the main forum at Everyedge focused on all the matchups. Look for a very busy few days with free picks, injury updates, systems, trends, and everything else related to the Conference Tournaments.

PGA Golf Betting
The PODS Championship tees off this weekend, as the Tour continues its Florida swing. Although several top names have booked this week off (Tiger and Phil most notably), there’s still a decent roster showing up to take on this tough course (it’s over 7,300 yards, par 71).
Vijay is the favorite at +1109, followed by Charles Howell III +1620 and Trevor Immelmann, also at +1620.

I don’t have any suggestions for the overall winner, but I do like one matchup for the first round and one matchup for the tournament so far.

The first round matchup I like is taking Stuart Appleby at +111 to beat Sergio Garcia. I think Sergio is going to struggle a little on this course. It isn’t a course you can over-power, as it leans to rewarding players who hit fairways. Yes, Appleby has not been playing real well as of late, but he does have the kind of game that sets up for this course. I think Appleby has just enough of an edge to justify a small play with plus money. 

I’m also playing Chad Campbell at -110 to win his overall tournament matchup vs. Chris Demarco. Campbell has been playing better and he knows this course inside out.

Good luck and enjoy the golf coverage.
