Preseason angles
With Week 1 of the NFL preseason a day away, VSiN’s Steve Makinen has put together nine betting concepts for the exhibition season.
For example:
Since 2015, preseason games between opponents from the same conference have trended heavily Under the total, going 64-39 Under (62.1%). Just over one-third of preseason games fall into this category.
FYI: Steve will do a weekly analytics report during the preseason to list the qualifiers for his betting concepts.
Another theme on VSiN this week has been the importance of keeping up on the news out of training camps.
VSiN.com managing editor Adam Burke reads between the lines to come up with three Best Bets for Week 1.

FedEx Cup begins
Scottie Scheffler, the favorite +275, returns to action this week as the St. Jude Championship marks the beginning of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
VSiN golf analyst Wes Reynolds has six outright picks from the field of 69 (no Rory McIlroy), including:
Tommy Fleetwood (25-1): Cameron Young finally broke his losing streak, earning his first PGA Tour victory in Greensboro last week. So why not Fleetwood to do the same in Memphis this week?
Wes joins Matt Brown and Kelley Bydlon on Long Shots, VSiN’s golf betting podcast, as the guys run through their models and the resulting picks.
