PREVIEW: After opening as a five point favorite, money has come in on Texas, leaving the Irish favored to win by three. This is a repeat of last year’s game where the Irish trounced the Longhorns 38-3 in the first game of the year. Both teams are having QB issues and Kelly said veterans DeShone Kizer and Malik Zaire will share the quarterback duties duties for the Irish. Texas senior quarterback Tyrone Swoopes hasn’t shown the ability to control the QB position for a good part of two seasons, so it will be more likely Freshman Shane Buechele who will see more action. The Irish were hit hard and now have the fewest number of returning starters in the country after losing their top rusher, three leading receivers, four top tacklers, a sack leader and several big men on the offensive line. Texas gave up over 1100 yards and 10 TD’s their final 4 games last year on the ground and the Irish can run. This is the best O line in the last few seasons, and it should be able to wear down the Irish as the game goes on so Texas will want to eat up the clock. Their secondary may be one of the best in the Big 12 an that puts all the pressure on the Texas run defense. Time of possession will be very important the way of both of these teams attack, and Texas should be more ready for the power game. This should be a much closer game than it was last year.

Match Up	Pick	Rating	Score	Result	Profit	Analysis
Bills vs Titans	Bills -5½ -110	Premium	31-34	Loss	-110	Show
This is a 5* play on Buffalo. The Bills have won five straight, and they come into Tennessee as a sizeable favorite. While some might think this is a let down spot after their win in Kansas City, I see this as a classic revenge game. Buffalo lost 42-16 at Tennessee last season, and they are in an ideal spot to avenge that loss on Monday night. The Titans defense has really struggled, especially against the pass. Josh Allen shredded the Chiefs defense for 315 yards and three TDs, and I expect him to do the same here against the Bills. The Titans will try to turn the game into a shootout, but that's not going to be easy versus the Bills #1 ranked scoring defense. GL, Jesse Schule
Astros vs Red Sox	OVER 9 +102	Premium	3-12	Win	102	Show
This is an 8* play on Over. The first two games of this series went over the total, and with the series shifting to Fenway we could see another slugfest. Eduardo Rodriguez will toe the slab for Boston, and his recent starts don't inspire a lot of confidence. He allowed four runs on five hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings in two games in the series versus Tampa. He's 0-1 with an 11.57 ERA in two starts versus Houston this season. The Astros hand the ball to Jose Urquidy, who hasn't pitched in over two weeks. Talk about getting thrown in to the fire. The over is 10-1-1 in the Red Sox last 12 League Championship home games. GL, Jesse Schule
Ducks vs Flames	Flames -183	Premium	3-2	Loss	-183	Show
This is a 5* play on Calgary. The Ducks are 1-1 after playing their first two games of rthe season at home, now they head out on the road where they will play Calgary on Monday. Anaheim finished dead last in the West last year, and this is basically the same group of players. The Ducks are 1-4 in the last five meetings in Calgary, and the home team is 59-21 in the last 80 meetings. The price isn't cheap, but this is a good spot to back the home favorite. GL, Jesse Schule
