Inside NU’s bowl betting special, Part Six: The Final Chapter

Happy Bowl Season! While the ‘Cats aren’t bowling this time around, that doesn’t mean you can’t get involved. Sports gambling is now legal in Illinois (and several other states across the U.S.), so you can easily have some skin in the game if you choose to.

We will be honest: it’s been an up and down bowl season for our handicappers, who have collectively gone under .500 against the spread this year. As a matter of fact, one of our pickers (ahem, Matt Albert) didn’t even get his picks in this morning. At 17-14-0, Avery will ride out the final chapter of a four-year bowl picking journey on his own for now, and we will update later once Matt wakes up and shakes off his New Year’s Day Scaries.
