The Country’s Longest-Running
Sports Betting Newsletter

All GoldSheet Products - Newsletter, Picks and Stat Sheets
Now In One Place

All of our content - From the Football GoldSheet newsletter to the daily NBA stat sheets to our LTS best bets - can now be found here. Current newsletter subscribers can log in using their existing GoldSheet account information to access their content.

The Industry Standard

Founded in 1957, GoldSheet is the country's longest-running sports betting newsletter. In May 2019, WagerTalk Media announced its intent to acquire GoldSheet in a deal to bring the iconic publication into the digital age.

Bettors and oddsmakers have used GoldSheet’s betting analysis for nearly seven decades. In 2022, the Chicago Sun Times did a piece on our history in the sports betting industry, and we were featured in Billy Walters’ critically-acclaimed book, Gambler: Secrets from a Life at Risk: “Mike was not a big sports gambler himself, but he knew a ripe market when he saw one. He dug for information at his local library and bookstores. He searched NCAA football guides, which listed scores and statistics, as well as local and national newspapers and handicapping resources like the GoldSheet.”

Classic GoldSheet Newsletter

Newsletter vs Picks

What's the difference between the GoldSheet newsletter and LTS Picks? The Football GoldSheet newsletter gets published every Tuesday during football season and The Basketball GoldSheet newsletter gets published daily by 12pm ET / 9am PT. We pride ourselves on being one of the first publications to market every week, giving you information as early as possible to assist in your handicapping process.

The biggest challenge with publishing a newsletter that early is that we don't always have important injury and weather reports at that time. Our LTS pick selections are made using a collaborative approach later in the week when some of those intangibles are a little more settled.

The GoldSheet team currently consists of seven handicappers with each one focusing on a specific area in specific sports. The team collaborates each day to share thoughts on their favorite wagers, betting notes and injury news. Using that collaboration, the team determines their top selections and those consensus picks are what gets released to clients.

The Football GoldSheet

First GoldSheet Ever
The Football GoldSheet newsletter is released every Tuesday
  • We offer write-ups, stat comparisons and GoldSheet’s power rating point spreads for every NFL and FBS-level college football matchup on the board.
  • Formerly known as GoldSheet Extra, our new Tech Angle section explores some historical trends related to each game.
  • We break down the box scores of the previous week’s games to help you find anomalies in important statistical categories.
  • The Football GoldSheet contains a running week-by-week log with each team’s record against the spread, over/unders, and home-road splits to help you analyze their performance in a variety of situations.
  • Formerly known as Confidential Kickoff, our Stat Service page offers a head-to-head look at each upcoming game with notes on turnover differential, yardage stats and much more.
First GoldSheet Ever

The Basketball GoldSheet

  • The Basketball GoldSheet newsletter will feature daily NBA and NCAAB game previews released by 12pm ET / 9am PT during the week and 10am ET / 7am PT on the weekends to accommodate for the earlier start times.
  • The Basketball Record provides a game log for every team with scores and point spread results.
  • The Basketball Spreadsheet provides situational records for each team based on their home/road splits and how they are performing as a favorite or as an underdog in certain situations.
  • Each daily issue features roughly six Key Releases across the NBA and college basketball, depending on the size of the slate for that day.

(463) Miami Dolphins at (464) Carolina Panthers
1:00pm EDT - Oct 5/2025

THE PLAY: Total Under 45.5 (-115)

Miami has won-and-covered each of the last two meetings, with the last one being a 42-21 home win as a 14-point favorite in October 2023. Carolina has struggled this season, but three of the Panthers' first four games have been played on the road. Since Week 9 of last season, Carolina is 6-1 against the spread at home including an outright upset win over the Falcons in Charlotte two weeks ago. We like the under in this contest. Miami is traveling on a short week after playing on Monday Night Football, and the Dolphins now have to gameplan for life without Tyreek Hill. Carolina QB Bryce Young was benched in favor of Andy Dalton in last week's loss to the Patriots after Young was only able to generate 5.0 yards per pass attempt. The Panthers' defense has actually performed better than expected this season, but Carolina's offense and special teams unit have not given them any help. The Patriots returned one punt for an 87-yard touchdown last week and then returned another one 61 yards to set up another short touchdown. If the Panthers' special teams can get that under control, the defense has been good enough to keep Carolina competitive. Play the Under

(359) Michigan State at (360) Nebraska
4:00pm EDT - Oct 4/2025

THE PLAY: Total Over 48.5 (-109)

Michigan State has won the last two meetings, but the Spartans and Huskers did not play last year. Both teams are coming off a bye week and both teams suffered tough losses prior to the bye. We're looking at the over in this contest. Nebraska's last three games have gone over their respective totals by an average of 12.5 points per game. Michigan State's last three games have gone over their respective totals by an average of 22.3 points per game. Since 2011, there have been 14 Big Ten conference games that have featured two teams on a three-game over streak. When those teams meet, the over has gone 10-4. Matt Rhule's teams at Temple and Baylor each showed great improvement on offense in his third year at the helm. That appears to be the case again in Lincoln with Rhule in his third season. Play the Over.

Consultant Bio

Founded in 1957, GoldSheet is the country's longest-running sports betting newsletter. The GoldSheet newsletter prides itself on providing in-depth analysis as early as possible to assist handicappers. When the dust settles on injury news, weather reports and line moves, the GoldSheet team offers its highly-respected LTS plays. Separate from the newsletter but never contrasting selections in the newsletter, these LTS selections have consistently kept GoldSheet atop WagerTalk's leaderboard since our debut in 2021. Simply put: These plays are the best of the best, and they are a big reason why GoldSheet has been a trusted source in the sports betting industry for seven decades.
