FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR TUESDAY, 9/29:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. Take the Tennessee Titans plus the points versus the Baltimore Ravens. Tennessee (0-3) remains winless this season after their 12-7 loss on the road in New York against the Giants as a 2.5-point underdog on Sunday. The Titans have covered the point spread in 5 of their last 7 games after losing three games in a row. And while first-year head coach Robert Saleh has a 23-35 ATS mark in his head coaching career mostly with the New York Jets, those Jets teams covered the point spread in 9 of their 13 games played in October which suggests his ability to make adjustments after the first month of the season. Baltimore (2-1) comes off a 34-31 last second victory against Dallas on Sunday in that game played in Brazil as a 3-point favorite. The Ravens return home where they have failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 10 games. They have also covered the point spread in 10 of their last 16 games when favored. Take Tennessee plus the points. Best of luck — Frank.

1* Free Pick on Seahawks -7

All plays are made using sophisticated machine learning models.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take the Over in Maryland Terrapins at Nebraska Cornhuskers (4 p.m., Saturday, October 3, FS1). We faded Maryland with last week’s free play, and the Terrapins delivered a rough performance in a 54-3 home loss to UCLA. That result has turned up the heat on their head coach, and we expect a better offensive effort this Saturday. The bigger concern remains Maryland’s defense, which surrendered 34 points to Virginia Tech before allowing 54 to UCLA. Nebraska has been piling up points, scoring 49, 56, 34, and 31 in its first four games of 2026. With the Cornhuskers rolling offensively and Maryland looking to respond, we like this matchup to go over the total. Back the Over.

Colts -3

Indy has the cleaner path to controlling this game. Washington is allowing more than 280 passing yards per game, and opposing QB's have consistently found room against a defense that has surrendered 11 TD's through three weeks. The Commanders are also allowing TD's on 75% of opposing red-zone trips. That gives Daniel Jones a favorable matchup, but Jonathan Taylor is where I expect Indy to establish control. Washington is coming off an emotional win behind Marcus Mariota, while the Colts just handled a physical Houston defense. At only a FG, I'll lay it. Back Indy. 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 COLTS -3. 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 Arizona over New York at 1 pm et on Sunday.

While the Giants enter this game with the better overall record, I don't think there's any question it's the Cardinals that appear to have more upside through three weeks of the season. I really liked the fight Arizona showed in last week's loss but ATS cover on the road against the 49ers. Bettors wanted no part of the Cards after their blowout loss at home against Seattle in Week 2. Keep in mind, the Seahawks had extra time to prepare for that matchup after opening the season on a Wednesday. That's not to mention the fact that the Cards were in a clear letdown after pulling off a road upset of the Chargers in Week 1. The situation on offense is bad enough for the Giants that they elected to sign Vikings cast-off QB J.J. McCarthy. Last week's win over Tennessee had everything to do with the ineptness of the Titans and very little to do with New York's own crisp play. That was an ugly game all around that to put bluntly, someone had to win. While the Giants might have had a chance to compete this year with a healthy Jaxson Dart at quarterback, I fully expect them to quickly fall well back of the pack with Jameis Winston running what already looks like a broken offense (the fact that they're bent on featuring RB Cam Skattebo as the focal point is the biggest red flag). Take Arizona (8*).

Our selection is on the Colorado Avalanche to defeat the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday at 10:07pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

These teams played in round one of the NHL playoffs last year and Colorado won each and every game of that series.

The Avalanche couldn't get past Vegas. But, they were dealing with injuries in that series.

They are back and even better for this season.

Los Angeles lost it's captain, Anze Kopitar due to retirement.

The Kings will also be without Kevin Fiala still for the opening part of this season.

The play is on Colorado at home.

AAA Sports

Temple +6.5 at USF (Raymond James Stadium)

USF opens American Conference play at 4-0 but is only 2-2 ATS. Temple is 1-3 straight up and 3-1 ATS. The Owls losses to Penn State, Toledo (OT) and Army could all have gone the other way, and they've covered everything except last week. Keeler's teams play close as dogs, and Temple leads the all-time series 6-4.

USF

 Defense is the story: 14.0 points allowed per game (21st nationally) and 322 yards. D.J. Crowther is the engine on offense with 325 rush yards and 5 TDs. Michael Van Buren Jr. has 0 INTs, but the offense is feast-or-famine at 350.5 yards per game (105th).

Temple

 The Owls run it at 220.3 yards per game (24th), but USF is tough to run on, allowing 121.8 per game and just one rushing TD all year. Temple's defense is leaky (133rd in third-down rate) and the O-line has some injury concerns. The one thing that worries me is the red zone. Temple has scored on every trip inside the 20, and USF has allowed a score on every opponent trip. It's a small sample, but it's a real tell.

The total

 USF just won 14-6 and Temple lost 21-17. USF's last two competitive games (Army and BGSU) totaled 52 and 20 points, and the number has fallen from the mid-50s to 48 for a reason.

The plays

Temple +6.5 (NoVig). You might be able to wait for a 7, but I don't think we get there.

Under 49.5 (Rivers)

1H Under 24.5. It's moved to 23.5, but I don't mind paying the extra juice for the full point.
