After our man Varmint in Vegas went 4-7 in his first 11 picks (including a soul crushing 6 game losing streak), we here at the GLOBAL PHENOMENON began listening to your pleas to make a change. But rather than dump Varmint while he's down on his luck, we decided to make things a bit more interesting while at the same time testing out one of gambling's greatest questions: Can an avid sports gambler pick better than my puppy? Let's check out the tale of the tape:
Varmint v. Teddy after The Jump:
Varmint's Pick:
I am 4-7.
The pick for Big Monday: Slim pickings...I will take West Virginia +1 at UCONN. I still say UCONN just does not have enough firepower in the end to beat a top 10 team on a consistent basis. A fight could break out in this game, items will be thrown on the floor...and Huggins will be wearing a sweatsuit from Ross dress for less!
Empty your bank account and lay heavy. WVU +1 is a LOCK!!!
Teddy's Pick:
Wait...you're giving me the Sooners +21.5 AND I get to play with my favorite sock? Take Oklahoma and thank me later. I enjoy Beggin' Strips.
