Betting the Big 12: Week 2

The first week of the season is always a difficult one for gambling soothsayers such as myself. You're using last year's metrics to judge what are essentially new teams, sometimes running new systems, against teams some people have never even heard of. It is easy to get things wrong.

At least, that's my excuse.
