Gamble like Kevin - Week 2
Last week I kicked off the weekly Big Ten betting extravaganza by asking the BHGP commentariat who the rock solid lock of the week was. The overwhelming winner was Purdue at +11 versus Notre Dame. Let me quickly remind you all how that turned out: You Blew It I know what you're thinking. ...
