We're getting through the middle of the week and getting closer to the start of college football. This Wednesday edition of BangTheBook Radio should have you even more excited. Bryan Leonard was unable to join us today, but BangTheBook writer Aram Tolegian stepped in and did a fantastic job with his thoughts on three overrated teams and three underrated teams for the upcoming college football season.

Wes Reynolds, @WesReynolds1 on Twitter and a host on VSIN, joined us for this week's Wednesday Wagering segment. The guys discussed the Tour Championship at East Lake with a new format and some tough decisions on the outrights. They also took a look at Week 3 of the NFL Preseason and talked about steam on the Indianapolis Colts again and what else to look for during Dress Rehearsal Week. Finally, the guys talked about the start of college football and Wes's preparations.

The second day of full shows on BangTheBook Radio was a good one. Host Adam Burke chatted with Brian Blessing about the conclusion of the golf season with the Tour Championship, the final event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Then the guys took a look at Week 3 of the NFL Preseason, as Dress Rehearsal Week is upon us. Finally, Adam and Brian talked about the start of the college football season and about what Brian is doing to prepare.

Ralph Michaels from WagerTalk.com joined us for this week's Capping the Card segment, as the guys took a look at Week 3 of the NFL Preseason and then dove deep into college football. We did talk to Ralph over the summer about his college football prep, but we got a chance to revisit it with him and look at power ratings changes and other notes. The guys also talked Florida vs. Miami and Arizona vs. Hawaii before taking a look at Week 1 thoughts, picks, and predictions.

BangTheBook Radio is back, baby! Well, we spent most of the summer being on 3-5 days per week anyway, but the daily radio show format has returned! Host Adam Burke kicked off the show with an intro talking about what you can expect and about our guest list on a recurring basis. Then he gave an abbreviated version of The Bettor's Box to get some MLB talk on the program before bringing on our first guest. That guest was Kyle Hunter.

Adam and Kyle spent the segment talking college football. We couldn't line up Kyle over the summer, but we've got him now, so the guys talked about some season win total bets, power ratings, Florida vs. Miami and Arizona vs. Hawaii, and a variety of other college football topics, ranging from coaching to market entry to adjustments being made for the 2019 season relative to past seasons.

This was one of the longest editions of our UFC Predictions with Pina segments, but it makes sense because there was a ton to talk about on this fight card for UFC 241. Stipe Miocic and champion Daniel Cormier will headline the UFC Anaheim card and Adam and Christian spent a ton of time breaking down the second fight between these two. They also talked at length about Nate Diaz vs. Anthony Pettis and surveyed the other main card fights.

There are some betting opportunities on the prelim card as well, as Christian gave his thoughts on some round props and some fighters that he likes. This was a comprehensive breakdown of UFC, with talk about the strengths and weaknesses of the fighters and with some strategy regarding round props and ways to cut down the juice on a big favorite.

The final edition of The Bettor's Box for Thursdays came your way today. Don't worry, host Adam Burke will still do The Bettor's Box for a few more Mondays, but Thursdays will be reserved for football as the daily shows of BangTheBook Radio return. On this August 15 edition of the show, Adam went Beyond the Box Score to look at Red Sox vs. Indians, Twins vs. Brewers, Reds vs. Nationals, Mets vs. Braves, and Cubs vs. Phillies. Then he took a look at offensive performance against elite velocity and against sliders and curveballs by pitcher handedness.

After a betting odds recap during the Down the Lines segment, Adam shared a couple of top picks for Thursday night and then previewed the weekend. It is a great weekend for games, with series like Indians vs. Yankees, Astros vs. Athletics, Cardinals vs. Reds, Brewers vs. Nationals, Dodgers vs. Braves, and Padres vs. Phillies.

Host Adam Burke had a weekend full of baseball to recap and a week full of baseball to preview and analyze on the August 12 edition of The Bettor’s Box. Our industry-leading MLB podcast goes deeper than any other show and listeners are sure to get a ton of great information on each and every broadcast. Adam went Beyond the Box Score today to discuss Indians vs. Twins, Nationals vs. Mets, Cubs vs. Reds, Phillies vs. Giants, and Royals vs. Tigers.

After taking a look at some intriguing second-half splits, Adam went Down the Lines to recap some line moves dating back to Friday. A couple of free picks for Monday night led us into a breakdown of the week ahead, with betting thoughts on Red Sox vs. Indians, Rays vs. Padres, Mets vs. Braves, and Reds vs. Nationals.

Host Adam Burke hopped on the airwaves with Christian Pina of the Sports Gambling Podcast to chat about UFC on ESPN+ 14, aka UFC Fight Night 156, aka UFC Uruguay, as the promotion heads to the capital of Montevideo. The main event has a lopsided line between Valentina Shevchenko and Liz Carmouche. Adam and Christian broke down that fight and also looked at Mike Perry vs. Vicente Luque and the rest of the main card bouts.

The preliminary card seems to be offering up a lot of good betting options on Saturday, so the guys bounced around looking at the rest of the fights, including Ciryl Gane’s UFC debut, as he’ll look to make his mark after training with Francis Ngannou. It should be a lot of fun and there are some good betting opportunities for this set of matches.

We're heading towards another weekend and that means a new edition of The Bettor's Box with host Adam Burke. The industry's premier MLB betting podcast is still rolling along, even though the NFL Preseason is underway. Adam went Beyond the Box Score to recap Braves vs. Twins, Cardinals vs. Dodgers, Phillies vs. Diamondbacks, and Brewers vs. Pirates. He talked about heavy favorites and the tremendous success that they have had for the last several years.

A look Down the Lines recapped line moves dating back to Tuesday, including several notable adjustments. Along the way, Adam also gave out two free MLB picks for Thursday night and then previewed the weekend ahead with Indians vs. Twins, Cubs vs. Reds, Braves vs. Marlins, Nationals vs. Mets, and Phillies vs. Giants, along with a bonus look at possibly the biggest road favorite of the last 15 years.

It's Monday and that means a new edition of The Bettor's Box, BangTheBook Radio's world-class MLB betting podcast. Host Adam Burke opened up the show with a few listener questions during the Monday Mailbag segment about live betting and how to improve as an MLB handicapper. During the Beyond the Box Score segment, Adam tackled Reds vs. Braves, Brewers vs. Cubs, Red Sox vs. Yankees, Nationals vs. Diamondbacks, and Angels vs. Indians. He touched on high-velocity contact numbers for the last couple of months and the league's luckiest pitchers on ground balls.

A look at line moves from the weekend gave way to the Down the Lines segment. That also included not one, but two picks for Monday night. Finally a preview of the week ahead looked at A's vs. Cubs, Braves vs. Twins, Brewers vs. Pirates, and some spot plays to consider for this week.

Host Adam Burke talked about UFC on ESPN 5 with Christian Pina of the Sports Gambling Podcast on the August 2 edition of the show. The guys broke down the main event of Robbie Lawler vs. Colby Covington and bounced around the rest of the main card, with some fights that have some intrigue and some betting opportunities and some that don’t.

A lot of time was spent on the main card last week, but more focus was on the preliminary card this week, as Adam and Christian talked about some good betting angles in the trio of women’s flyweight fights and then took a quick look ahead at next week’s Fight Night card in Uruguay.
