Jon Wilner Articles/Mailbag Questions & Answers

Recommended Posts

Since so many of you seem to like the Jon Wilner articles, I have discovered a site where there is not a paywall.

 

It appears these are the same articles he writes for the pay sites, and the same is also true with his Mailbag write-ups where he answers readers questions regarding the Pac-12. I noticed that they are posted on this site a day later with no pay wall. Sometimes his articles don't have anything to do with Oregon so we may not have articles some weeks.

 

I will post those articles here as I find them. As this will be a continuing thread, older articles will be deleted to keep the thread to one page.

Pac-12 picks of the week: Arizona, Oregon schools have been money against the spread

 

The top team in the Pac-12 standings is near the bottom against the point spread while a bottom feeder is one of the best when the betting line comes into play.

 

Washington's struggles with the spread should come as zero surprise to anyone who watched the Huskies struggle as huge favorites against Arizona State and Stanford.

 

Meanwhile, ASU's success against the betting line was reflected in narrower-than-expected losses to Colorado and Washington and the upset of WSU last weekend.

 

With two months down and one remaining, it's clear which Pac-12 teams are the best on the field and which are simply the best bets.

 

Here are the records against the spread, taken from teamrankings.com

UW is a slight favorite at USC in the marquee matchup of the week.
