The premier sports handicapping experts of Covers-Experts.com
take a look at some early betting news and notes for the first week of college
football.

Tennessee-California

It’s of course a huge revenge game for the Golden
Bears. Last year, the Volunteers crushed
Cal in the season opener 35-18. Cal
returns 16 starters, eight on one of the top offenses in the country.

South Carolina
free safety Emanuel Cook, an All-SEC selection last year as a freshman, is
suspended as is Gamecocks starting quarterback Blake Mitchell.

Washington State-Wisconsin

New Badgers quarterback Tyler Donovan has only two starts
under his belt. However, he does have
proven playmakers returning to help with his transition: tight ends Travis class=SpellE>Beckum and Andy Crooks, tailback P.J.
Hill and wideouts Paul Hubbard and Luke Swan.

Utah-Oregon style='font-size:12.0pt'> State style='font-size:12.0pt'>

The Utes were to return 10 starters on offense. On the
other hand, offensive lineman Jason Boone was lost for the season. According to
Stevie Vincent, “All reports are that style='color:black'>Utah style='color:black'> is much more prepared for the season then they were last
year.” Vincent has replaced football handicapper Dr. Bob Stohl
as the lead betting source for large betting syndicates.

Kansas State-Auburn

Moneyline bettors will want to note that Auburn
is 11-1 in home night games this century, including four wins to nationally
ranked teams. They’ve won 12-of-14 and 20 of their last 23 SU at home. style='mso-spacerun:yes'> However, note that Auburn
must replace RB Kenny Irons and their all-time
leading receiver Courtney Taylor. Returning
players accounted for only 42.5 percent of their rushing yards last year and
55.6 percent of their receptions. Also four starters are gone from their
offensive line.

Eastern Michigan-Pittsburgh

EMU was 1-11 last year and has lost 35 straight games
straight up to BCS conference teams. Eastern
Michigan though has a more proven QB as their starter Andy Schmitt
started 7-of-12 games last year. Pittsburgh
has a virgin QB Bill Stull and a rebuilt linebacking
unit.

Marshall-Miami

Master college football handicapper Joe Duffy of GodsTips
reports that new Miami coach Randy
Shannon plans on playing both true and redshirt freshman. “That backdoor could
be wide open” says Duffy of a potential pointspread cover for Marshall,
while the Hurricanes are breaking in the new talent.

MasterLockLine.com

Sunday, May 04, 2008, PLAINVIEW, NY–MasterLockLine.com has its roots on a Long Island golf course when several high rollers decided to pool their money to purchase sports service selections of a dozen or so top handicapping firms. Via word of mouth, the syndicate grew to several dozen members quickly, almost all members betting several thousand dollars per game on a daily basis.

Eventually the Alliance, now MasterLockLine.com decided to go public with the plays as a business venture to subsidize their gaming combine. Why now to the general public offer the same information for $3.63 per day? “First of all, this price is an introductory price. We know clients will stay with us and while they will still get elite service selections for pennies on the dollar, it won’t be at that price when they renew” founding father Dom Vincenzio stated perhaps too matter-of-factly.

“It’s a business venture,” stated Cy McCormick. “Our original intentions have been exceeded. We are all making money on the leisurely end already. With the quality of sports services offered, we plan on turning a profit purely by reselling the plays as well.”

As members of the syndicate include major players in the computer programming field,

MasterLockLine.com wrote an exclusive program that rates sports services overall and in each individual sport. Using “z-scores” a mathematical formula that weighs the statistical reliability of data, sports services are rated based mostly on long term return on investment records, but with some consideration given to “who’s hot”.

Data mining was used to determine what percentage will be assigned to weigh various factors. Included is measuring long-term versus short term record, each sport individually versus overall record, and the subcategory of higher rated plays versus “regular” rated plays, etc.

Whether it’s high profile sports services such as Doc’s Enterprises, Jonathan Stone, Bobby Ventura, Wayne Root, Mark Lawrence, Dr. Bob Stohl, the so called Covers Experts, Jim Feist and his family of funds, Wayne Root or the lesser known such as Bill Tanner, Kal Elner and others, the MasterLockLine.com monitors all of their top service plays, parses them and passes along only the cream of the crop to you.

In 2006, the SuperLockLine, which originated in the 976-LOCK days became MasterLockLine.com.
