pinkney_james051017.jpgCovers’ once again trolls the murkiest conferences for unranked teams that can bring home bank for those of us sick of losing money playing the BCS turds every week. Once again, the East Carolina Pirates(5-1, ATS) rank the highest. Everybody should know to love this team by now. If not, shame on you. The rest:

Minnesota (5-2)

“The Golden Gophers would be the best bet going in the Big Ten. But for now they’ll have to share that distinction with the Badgers, whose comeback win handed Minnesota its second ATS loss of the season and its last in three games.”

Tulsa (5-2)

” The real reason the Golden Hurricanes have five paydays in their pockets. Defense. In Saturday’s win, Tulsa held Rice scoreless in the first half, while two interceptions in the second and third quarters helped the Golden Hurricanes build a 21-0 lead.”


Wyoming (5-2)

“Starting the season with five straight paydays was enough for the Cowboys to be considered one of the best kept cash cows out there.But back-to-back against the spread loses is enough for many to take a week off from playing Wyoming to see if their early run was a fluke. You can’t really blame them either.”

Baylor (4-1)

“At first glance, one has to wonder just exactly how the Baylor Bears are cashing in. Well besides playing division I-AA school Samford, the answer lies in Baylor’s defense.They haven’t allowed more than 23 points in a single game, and four times, have held the opposition to under 20 points.”
