Thursday card has a MASSIVE THURSDAY NIGHT SYSTEM that is PERFECT S-1990 and a Perfect Secondary system pertaining to week 3. We also have Nations League Soccer totals and more. CFB Comp play below
The Thursday Comp play is on Liberty at 7:30 eastern. Rob notes that Thursday road favorites of 8 or less are 8-1 straight up and to the spread since 1980 off a home favored win where they allowed less than 24 points and the opponent is off a road dog loss. Liberty comes in off a a pair of nice wins and takes on a Coast Carolina team that has lost 2 of 3 and their only win is here at home against Fordham. Liberty likely gets the cover. GL Rob V-

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #313 UCLA Bruins over Maryland Terrapins (1:30 p.m., Saturday, September 26, BTN)
We faded Maryland at home last week, and we’re backing UCLA against the Terrapins this Saturday. The Bruins are 3-0 under first-year head coach Bob Chesney. While their competition has been modest, they’ve shown they can score, and we expect their offense to make the difference.
Maryland struggled against Virginia Tech last week, falling behind 35-14 before adding late fourth-quarter touchdowns. Chesney also knows the region from his time coaching at James Madison in Virginia. With UCLA favored, we like the Bruins in this matchup.

Saturday’s Free Winner: Michigan State Spartans.
Game 318.
2:00 PM PST/5:00 PM EST.
Nebraska snapped a two-game slide in this series with last season’s home victory, 38-27. Now they must travel to East Lansing to face a Michigan State opponent that happens to be a covering machine. That’s right, my friends the Spartans have covered all three games this season, and going back a bit further five in a row and eight of their last nine overall contests. They face the same tough opponents the Cornhuskers do being in the Big Ten. Meanwhile, what can we say about Nebraska? They had three very easy opponents thus far being favored by as little as 23.5 points and as high as 30.5 points. They failed to cover their last outing against North Dakota, and going back a bit, they have failed to cover four of their last six and seven of their last 10 overall outings. Michigan State had a lot of trouble in their last outing on the road at Notre Dame, failing to get their ground game in gear along with a lackluster passing attack. But I feel they’re in for a big bounce back in this matchup here. Yes, Nebraska is 3-0. But those victories came against two MAC teams and one FCS opponent. If you recall a season ago, they failed to win any of their final three games against Penn State, Iowa, and Utah. They were smoked in all three of those games. They’re also not the greatest covering on the road either. While the MSU offense leaves a lot to be desired, their defense is good enough to put some pressure on Nebraska’s quarterback and keep this game a lot closer than the point spread. Playing in East Lansing in front of their very loud and loyal fans gives the Spartans a big edge in this matchup. Making them an underdog in their first Big Ten outing at home will further motivate them to come out here and make a good appearance. The Cornhuskers have big matchups upcoming against the Terrapins, the Hoosiers, the Ducks and the Huskies all in a row. Maybe they’ll overlook this week’s opponent just a bit. Take MSU. Thank you.

Seahawks -7
Seattle’s defense is the difference for me here. The Seahawks have allowed just 17 points through two games, and now they draw Marcus Mariota with Jayden Daniels sidelined. That’s a tough assignment against a Seattle front that should control the line of scrimmage. Drew Lock has also done exactly what you want from a backup, including three TD passes last week, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba remains a matchup problem. Seattle has won 15 of its last 16 road games, so traveling east doesn’t scare me much. Washington has too many problems to solve against one of the league’s best defenses. Lay the touchdown. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Today's FREE selection is a strong lean on the SEAHAWKS ATS. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

My selection is on Atlanta plus the points over Green Bay at 8:15 pm et on Thursday.
Bettor sentiment couldn't be any lower when it comes to the Falcons. They're off to an 0-2 start to the season and fresh off an embarrassing 34-3 rout at the hands of the division-rival Panthers, at home no less. I'm confident we'll see Atlanta bounce back with a much better performance in Green Bay on Thursday. The Packers aren't exactly rolling as they needed everything they had in the tank to rally for a 20-17 overtime win over the Jets on Sunday. That came on the heels of a lopsided defeat against the Vikings in Week 1. Of course, Green Bay's injury woes on the offensive line are the big story entering this contest. It remains to be seen whether they can keep QB Jordan Love clean in this game but regardless of that, I expect Atlanta to take this game down to the wire at the very least as it tries desperately to avoid an 0-3 start to the season. Take Atlanta (8*).

Chargers +7.5 at Bills
You know I like a dirty dog, and it doesn't get much dirtier than this.
The Chargers look like a mess. They're 0-2 both SU and ATS, and now they travel east to face a Bills team that has won and covered both games. Buffalo leads the league at 38.5 PPG and has scored at least 36 in each outing. They also have extra rest coming off TNF. Josh Allen has been phenomenal, with 9 total TDs and no INTs.
LA's start is historically bad. They're the first team in NFL history to open 0-2 against two clubs that lost 14+ games the prior season. The offense has struggled and mistakes have piled up, including 6 fumbles and 2 interceptions last week.
So why the Chargers? This is a classic buy-low spot.
The line move: The lookahead had Buffalo -2.5. It opened -4.5 and has since crossed a key number. The Bills have heavy backing, so I expect it to keep climbing.
Bills defense: It has been leaky. If LA cleans up the mistakes, Herbert and Omarion Hampton should be able to move the ball.
History: The Chargers have covered 5 of their last 6 vs Buffalo.
Role reversal: LA was favored in both prior games. Now they're the underdog.
The trend: Road underdogs of 3.5 to 10 points, off a home loss of 10+ in the first month of the season, are 26-6.
Motivation: Harbaugh will have this group ready. They also have a brutal schedule ahead and need to figure it out fast.
Meanwhile, will Buffalo be locked in? I'm not so sure. This is the sandwich game of a 3-game homestand, and they could get comfortable against a struggling team at Highmark. It's a desperate Chargers team against an overconfident Bills team, and we'll back the contrarian side.
Shop for the best number. Take Chargers +7.5.
