Chicago sports radio & TV legend David Kaplan has joined Sportsbook Review to give his weekly take and picks. Here's Uncle Kappy's Fab Five from college football Week 2 and NFL Week 1.
Football is back! That means grabbing my coffee and crunching numbers and trends, not only early on Saturday and Sunday morning but throughout the week. I love identifying a game or two early in the week, and then as I do my research making my play whenever I feel the line is where I need it to be. It is not easy to handicap in the early weeks of the season because we don’t know what teams will look like as they look to jell for a late-season run, or in the case of college football for conference play and a potential bowl game.
I like to look at the best offensive line in a matchup along with game-changing players who could swing the outcome of a game with one big play. With that in mind, I have identified a handful of games that I like this week. Time to roll!
