Today’s Best Bets: More Points Taken

Had it last night. Didn’t win it. We try again.


Colorado at Iowa State

Yet again, we get that it’s a big number but we don’t see any reason it’s too big.

Pick: Iowa State –17 (–105). 3.33 units to win 3.17.

I am only roughly 90% confident in these numbers. At some point we’ll get that Google Sheet up which tracks all our bets this year.

2025–26: –599.25 units (started with 1,000-unit bankroll)

2025–26: –7% average ROI (weighted by unit; sample size: 1,051 single-game markets plus five completed futures portfolios and one partly completed futures portfolio)

Pre-2025: 0% average ROI (worse when limited to only sports)

Units taken from best odds we can find at major sportsbooks available to most Americans.

These bets are not investment advice. If you’re worried you or someone you know might have a gambling addiction, call 1-800-GAMBLER for free, confidential help.
