About Sarah

I grew up in a Green Bay household where Packers football was religion. My dad’s had season tickets since before I was born — I’ve been to Lambeau in January when it was -15°F, and I’d do it again tomorrow. Started tracking family picks in a spreadsheet “for fun” three seasons ago. By the end of year one, I was beating everyone by 8%. That’s when I got serious.

I’m a Wisconsin native now based in Chicago, working in marketing at a craft brewery during the day. Played soccer through college (D3 at UW-Eau Claire), so I understand athlete psychology and game preparation. Football betting became my thing because I genuinely love the sport — the strategy, the matchups, the way a single play can change everything.

My approach is research-heavy. I track weather, injury reports, coaching tendencies, and line movements. I’m not looking for “hot picks” — I’m looking for value where the market is wrong. NFL and college football only. I don’t pretend to know other sports well enough to bet them seriously.

What I Don’t Cover

Basketball, hockey, baseball — I watch them casually but wouldn’t bet them seriously. Same goes for props and same-game parlays (the math is usually terrible). I focus on spreads and totals where I actually have an edge. If it’s not football, I’m probably not your source.
