11-18-23 | Louisville v. Miami-FL +1 | 38-31 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 45 m | Show | |
Louisville @ Miami Fla. 12:00 PM ET Game# 333-334 Play On: Miami +1.0 This line makes no sense to me and when that occurs more times than not, I go against what seems to be the obvious choice. We have the #9 team in the country in Louisville at 9-1 as a pick versus an unranked Miami team that’s 6-4 that’s lost the last 2 and 4 of their previous 6 games. Additionally, Louisville game after Miami comes against in state bitter rival Kentucky. If it looks too good to be true pertaining to sports betting it usually is. This is a prime example of such. Give me Miami Fla. on the money line. | |||||||
11-18-23 | SMU v. Memphis +9.5 | 38-34 | Win | 100 | 17 h 44 m | Show | |
SMU @ Memphis 12:00 PM ET Game# 397-398 Play On: Memphis +9.5 Memphis enters this American Athletic Conference matchup on a 4-game win streak, and it’s improved their season record to 8-2. Conversely, SMU is coming off a SU&ATS 45-21 win over North Texas. SMU is also 8-2 but all 7 of their wins over FBS opponents this season have come against teams that currently have a losing record and have a combined record of 21-50 (.296). College Football home underdogs of between 2.5 to 14.0 Like Memphis that are coming off 4 or more wins in a row, versus an opponent like SMU who’s coming off a SU&ATS win, resulted in those home underdogs going 16-0 ATS since 2018. The home underdogs also went 14-2 SU in those games. Give me Memphis plus points. | |||||||
11-17-23 | Rockets v. Clippers -7.5 | 100-106 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
Rockets @ Clippers 10:40 PM ET Game# 541-542 Play On: Clippers -7.5 Taking the red-hot sizable road underdog Rockets who’s won 6 in a row versus an ice-cold Clippers team that’s on a 6-game losing streak qualifies as my designated sucker play of the day. Houston has played 7 of their first 9 games at home. During their current 6-0 SU&ATS run all have been played at home. The Rockets are 0-2 SU&ATS on the road and lost by an average of 17.0 points per game. The Clippers played 5 of 6 on the road during their current winless streak. However, at home, Los Angeles has gone 3-1 SU&ATS with an average +16.0 points per game differential. This line opened at 6.0 and at the time of this writing is 7.5 or 8.0 depending on what sportsbook you are looking at. If it looks too good to be true when it pertains to sports betting, it usually is. Give me the Clippers minus points. | |||||||
11-17-23 | Harvard v. Massachusetts OVER 151 | 78-75 | Win | 100 | 7 h 45 m | Show | |
Harvard @ Massachusetts 7:00 PM ET Game# 789-790 Play On: Over 151.0 Taking the red-hot sizable road underdog Rockets who’s won 6 in a row versus an ice-cold Clippers team that’s on a 6-game losing streak qualifies as my designated sucker play of the day. Houston has played 7 of their first 9 games at home. During their current 6-0 SU&ATS run all have been played at home. The Rockets are 0-2 SU&ATS on the road and lost by an average of 17.0 points per game. The Clippers played 5 of 6 on the road during their current winless streak. However, at home, Los Angeles has gone 3-1 SU&ATS with an average +16.0 points per game differential. This line opened at 6.0 and at the time of this writing is 7.5 or 8.0 depending on what sportsbook you are looking at. If it looks too good to be true when it pertains to sports betting, it usually is. Give me the Clippers minus points. | |||||||
11-16-23 | Thunder -130 v. Warriors | 128-109 | Win | 100 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
Thunder @ Warriors 10:10 PM ET Game# 519-520 Play On: Thunder -130 (ML) Are you curious as to why Golden State is a home underdog. For starters, they’re 1-4 SU & 0-5 ATS at home this season with their only win coming by a narrow 1-point margin. They’ll also be without the services of star point guard Stephen Curry (knee). and valuable forward Draymond Green (suspension). The Warriors will enter tonight’s game losers of 4 in a row. Oklahoma City is coming off a 123-87 blowout win of San Antonio and easily covered as a 10.0-point home favorite. The Thunder have held their last 3 opponents to only 97.0 points scored per game and 39.7% shooting. That’s not good news for Golden State who has shot just 41.1% during their current 4-game losing streak. Since the start of the 2019-2020 NBA season, November money line favorites like Oklahoma City that are coming off a double-digit favorite ATS cover have gone 33-2 (94.3%). Give me the Thunder as a money line favorite. | |||||||
11-16-23 | Bengals v. Ravens -3.5 | 20-34 | Win | 100 | 28 h 2 m | Show | |
Bengals @ Ravens 8:15 PM ET Game# 311-312 Play On: Ravens -3.5 The Ravens are coming off a home favorite 33-31 SU loss to Cleveland last Sunday. That dropped their season record to a still very good 7-3 (.700). The Ravens will be able to move the ball with a high degree of efficiency against a vulnerable Cincinnati defense. Cincinnati is coming off a 30-27 home upset loss to Houston in a game they allowed the Texans to rack up 544 yards of total offense. That marked the 4th time in 9 games this season that the Bengals defense surrendered 400 yards or more. As a matter of fact, the Bengals defense ranks 30th total yards allowed and also 30th at stopping the run. Baltimore leads the NFL in rushing offense while averaging 154.9 yards per game. Conversely, the Baltimore defense is #2 in yards allowed per game and they’re #1 at sacking the quarterback. Any regular season NFL favorite like Baltimore with a win percentage between .600 to .750 that’s coming off a home favorite SU loss, and they’re playing after Game 8, versus an opponent like Cincinnati that’s coming off a loss and has a win percentage of .181 or better, resulted in those home favorites going 11-0 ATS since 2016. The average victory margin in those 11 contests came by a substantial margin of 21.9 points per game. Give me the Ravens minus points. | |||||||
11-16-23 | Nets +3.5 v. Heat | 115-122 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 1 m | Show | |
Nets @ Heat 7:40 PM ET Game# 519-520 Play On: Nets +3.5 Yes, Miami is on a 6-game win streak. However, all 6 of those wins have come by 8 points or fewer. So, it’s not like they’ve been winning decisively during this current hot run. The Heat are 3-1 SU at home but failed to cover on each of those 4 occasions. Additionally, in their only game versus Brooklyn this season they lost 109-105 as a 6.5-point home favorite. Brooklyn is a mediocre 6-5 to start the season. Nevertheless, they’ve gone an extremely profitable 9-1-1 ATS during those 11 contests. Brooklyn has held all 11 of their opponents to less than 50% shooting. They’ve been especially stout defensively over their previous 4 contests while holding teams to 103.0 points scored per game and just 41.1% shooting. Give me the Nets plus points. | |||||||
11-15-23 | Wolves v. Suns -6 | 115-133 | Win | 100 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
Timberwolves @ Suns 9:10 PM ET Game# 511-512 Play On: Suns -6.0 This is an extremely fishy line with all being considered. Minnesota is on an 7-game win streak including coming off back-to-back wins at Golden State. Keep in mind, their win over the Warriors last night saw a brawl break out in the first 2 minutes of the game which resulted in 3 players being ejected and may cause a possible suspension or 2 which has yet to be determined. Then we have the Suns who have lost 4 in a row at home. Yet, it’s Phoenix that’s a sizable home favorite tonight. The sportsbooks are begging you to take the red-hot underdog in this spot. I’m going to reject that temptation. Give me the Suns minus points. | |||||||
11-15-23 | Celtics -4.5 v. 76ers | 117-107 | Win | 100 | 6 h 29 m | Show | |
Celtics @ 76ers 7:40 PM ET Game# 503-504 Play On: Celtics -4.5 These teams have played once this season and it occurred at Philadelphia last Wednesday with Philadelphia winning 106-103 as a 2.5-point home underdog. Well, the oddsmakers seem undeterred by that result based on the Celtics opening as a 3.5-point road favorite and they quickly moved to 4.5. Since that loss, Boston has gone 3-0 SU&ATS with an average victory margin of 17.7 points per game. The 76ers will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days with the previous 2 at home versus Indiana in which they went 1-1. The 76ers expended a ton of energy in those 2 contests against a Pacers team that pushes the pedal to the metal regarding pace. Give me the Celtics minus points. | |||||||
11-15-23 | Celtics v. 76ers OVER 224.5 | 117-107 | Loss | -112 | 6 h 28 m | Show | |
Celtics @ 76ers 7:40 PM ET Game# 503-504 Play On: Over 224.5 These teams went well under the total in last week’s meeting when the number was 229.5. The sportsbooks have adjusted that total for tonight and I look for a different type of game. Being that the 76ers will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days and Boston is coming off a 3-game homestand which ended on Monday, look for the Celtics to make a concerted effort to push the offensive tempo in this contest. Furthermore, Boston has scored 114 points or more in 7 of their previous 9 games. Conversely, Philadelphia has scored 112 points or more in 9 of their 10 games this season. So the relative low scoring output by both teams last week was a rarity and there’s a high probability of that not occurring again. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
11-14-23 | Kentucky v. Kansas -6.5 | 84-89 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 3 m | Show | |
Kentucky vs. Kansas 9:30 PM ET Game# 663-664 Play On: Kansas -6.5 There’s a bit of betting value which has diminished on Kansas since they opened as just a 4.5-point favorite. Nevertheless, I don’t think it’s going to matter. Kansas is the more experienced team in this matchup and has more cohesive to their game than Kentucky has at this early stage of the season. This line speaks volumes to me considering both teams are nationally ranked and each is a storied program. Yet, the #1 Jayhawks are a sizable favorite versus #17 Kentucky on a neutral floor to boot. They’re pleading with you to take the underdog here. My answer is no thanks and give me Kansas minus points. | |||||||
11-14-23 | Pacers +5.5 v. 76ers | 132-126 | Win | 100 | 6 h 47 m | Show | |
Pacers @ 76ers 7:10 ET Game# 563-564 Play On: Pacers +5.5 These team played in Philadelphia on Tuesday and the 76ers walked away with a 137-26 win while also covering as a 7.0-point favorite. Yet, the 76ers opened as a 6.5-point favorite for today’s game and now they’re down to 5.0 despite them going 8-0 SU and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 outings. The Pacers are very good offensively and to steal a boxing adage they give us a puncher’s chance as a result. Throughout their previous 6 contests, Indiana has averaged a robust 130.5 points scored per game and shot 51.7% from the field. Give me the Pacers plus points. | |||||||
11-14-23 | Toledo v. Bowling Green +11 | 32-31 | Win | 100 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
Toledo @ Bowling Green 7:00 PM ET Game# 303-304 Play On: Bowling Green +11.0 Toledo began their season with a narrow 2-point loss at Illinois, and since then has won 9 straight games. Bowling Green began the season 2-4 and then proceeded to win 4 in a row to get to their current 6-4 record. Additionally, 2 of their 4 losses came on the road against nationally ranked Liberty 34-24 and Michigan 31-6 who as of this writing are a combined 20-0. Any College Football home underdog of 13.0 or less like Bowling Green currently is that’s currently coming off 4 or more wins in a row, versus an opponent like Toledo who’s coming off a conference SU&ATS win, resulted in those home underdogs going 15-0 ATS since 2018. Those home underdogs were also 14-1 SU in those 15 games. Give me Bowling Green plus points. | |||||||
11-14-23 | Duke -3.5 v. Michigan State | 74-65 | Win | 100 | 6 h 35 m | Show | |
Michigan State vs. Duke 7:00 PM ET Game# 613-614 Play On: Duke -3.5 Both teams return 4 starters from a season ago and each is currently 1-1. However, Duke loss came at home to #3 Arizona by 5. Michigan State lost their season opener at home to then unranked James Madison and did so as a 16.5-point favorite. The Spartans have averaged 32 free throw attempts per game and made a somewhat mediocre 70% of those opportunities. Duke allowed 17 free throw attempts per game during their first 2 contests so it’s highly unlikely Michigan State will even come close to their season average today. These teams met last season and Duke won by 9 on a neutral floor and covered as a 6.5-point favorite. Give me Duke minus points. | |||||||
11-13-23 | Broncos v. Bills -7 | 24-22 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
Broncos @ Bills 8:15 PM ET Game# 265-266 Play On: Bills -7.0 The Broncos are coming off last week’s 24-9 upset win as a 7.0-point home underdog over Kansas City. That victory improved their season record to 3-5 (.375). Since 2014, Denver is 0-6 SU and 1-5 ATS in Monday night away games. The Broncos are also an abysmal 0-11 SU and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 on the road when their point-spread was between -2.0 to +9.5 while losing by an average of 12.0 points per game. Buffalo is coming off a Sunday night 24-18 loss at Cincinnati in a game they also failed to cover as a 1.5-point underdog. Despite the Bills offense falling under heavy criticism, they’re still #7 in total yards, #7 in scoring, and #2 in 3rd down conversion rate. They’ll be facing a Broncos defense that’s dead last in the NFL when it comes to points and yards allowed per game. The Denver stop unit has especially struggled in non-division contests while allowing 36.2 points and 464.6 yards per game. The Bills struggles have come on the road where they’re 1-4. However, Buffalo is 4-0 at home with an average victory margin of 16.3 points per game and outgained their opponents by 79.0 yards per contest. Any NFL home favorite of 4.5 or greater like Buffalo that’s coming off an away underdog ATS loss, versus a non-division opponent like Denver with a win percentage of .333 or better who’s coming off a home underdog SU win, resulted in those home favorites going 15-0 SU&ATS since 1998. The average victory margin came by a decisive 19.0 points per game. Give me the Bills minus points. | |||||||
11-12-23 | Commanders +6 v. Seahawks | Top | 26-29 | Win | 100 | 25 h 21 m | Show |
Commanders @ Seahawks 4:25 PM ET Game# 261-262 Play On: Commanders +6.0 Seattle was hammered in last week’s 37-3 loss at Baltimore in a game the Ravens held a total yard advantage of 515-151. Since the 2021-2022 season, Seattle is 2-8 ATS as a home favorite of between 3.5 and 7.0. Furthermore, they lost 6 of those 10 games outright. Washington is coming off a confidence building 20-17 win at New England last Sunday in a game they closed as a 3.0-point underdog. The Commanders are now a perfect 4-0 ATS as an away underdog this season and won 3 of those contests SU. Washington’s 2nd year quarterback Sam Howell has been terrific in the last 2 games while going 68-97 (70.1%) passing which accounted for 696 yards. Since 2021-2022, Washington is 7-0-1 SU and 7-1 ATS in Games 10 through 13. Give me the Commanders plus the points as my Top Play of the Week. | |||||||
11-12-23 | Browns v. Ravens OVER 38 | 33-31 | Win | 100 | 22 h 3 m | Show | |
Browns @ Ravens 1:00 PM ET Game# 243-244 Play On: Over 38.0 We have the top 2 defenses in the NFL when it comes to total yards allowed. This also features 2 of the top 3 scoring defenses in the league. Thus, the low posted total. It’s a no brainer to take the under, right? That would be an emphatic no. I strongly believe there’s ample betting value in going over the number. Cleveland has gone over the total in all 3 road games this season and with a combined average of 56.3 points scored per contest. Additionally, since the start of the 2021-2022 season, Cleveland has played 5-1 to the over in road games where the number was between 35.5 and 42.0 with a combined 49.2 points scored per contest. The Baltimore offense has been on fire during their previous 3 contests while averaging 35.3 points scored and 428.7 yards gained per game. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
11-12-23 | Texans +7 v. Bengals | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 22 h 1 m | Show | |
Texas @ Bengals 1:00 PM ET Game# 245-246 Play On: Texans +7.0 The Bengals are surging while having gone 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 games. However, this has a good possibility of being a flat spot for them on Sunday. They will be without starting wide receiver Tee Higgins and their #1 pass catcher Jamaar Chase is listed as questionable. Additionally, Cincinnati is coming off a 24-18 home win over Buffalo in front of a national television audience and up next is a showdown with AFC North Division leader this coming Thursday. Sandwiched in between is this low profile game against a 4-4 Houston team. Furthermore, despite their 5-3 record, Cincinnati has been outgained by an average of 71.7 yards per game. Houston’s rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud is coming off a massive performance in last Sunday’s 39-37 home win over Tampa Bay. Stroud has thrown 14 touchdown passes this season while being intercepted only once and has averaged 283.8 yards passing yards per game. Give me the Texans plus points. | |||||||
11-12-23 | 49ers -3 v. Jaguars | 34-3 | Win | 100 | 22 h 0 m | Show | |
49ers @ Jaguars 1:00 PM ET Game# 247-248 Play On: 49ers -3.0 Talk about a fishy line. Jacksonville is a red-hot 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5. Conversely, San Francisco is 0-3 SU&ATS during their previous 3. Yet, it’s the 49ers who come up favorite in this spot. They’re pleading with you to take the home underdog here. My answer is thank you for the offer but I’m not taking the bait. Here’s the other thing, although Jacksonville is 6-2, both losses took place at home versus Houston and Kansas City. Their lone home win came over the Colts 37-20 in a game they were outgained in total yards by a wide margin of 354-233. Give me the 49ers minus points. | |||||||
11-12-23 | Saints v. Vikings +3 | 19-27 | Win | 100 | 22 h 59 m | Show | |
Saints @ Vikings 1:00 PM ET Game# 249-250 Play On: Vikings +3.0 After starting the season 0-3, the Vikings have rebounded well and are now 5-4. That includes going 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 games. Throughout their previous 6 contests, the Minnesota defense has been superb while allowing only 18.0 points and 300.8 yards per game. New Orleans is a respectable 3-2 on the road thus far. However, all 3 of those wins have came over teams that currently have a win percentage of .500 or worse. As a matter of fact, this will be their first road game of the season versus a team that currently has a winning record. Give me the Vikings plus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Iowa State v. BYU +8 | 45-13 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 1 m | Show | |
Iowa State @ BYU 10:15 PM ET Game# 171-172 Play On: BYU +8.0 Iowa State had their 3-game win streak halted last Saturday during a 28-21 loss to #17 Kansas. Following this game against 5-4 at BYU they’ll be hosting #7 Texas next. Needless to say this is a potential flat spot for the Cyclones. All 4 losses by BYU have come on the road. The Cougars are a perfect 4-0 at home including conference wins over Cincinnati and Texas Tech. This is good situation and spot to back the home underdog. Give me BYU plus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Florida v. LSU -14.5 | 35-52 | Win | 100 | 20 h 8 m | Show | |
Florida @ LSU 7:30 PM ET Game# 199-200 Play On: LSU -14.5 The most alarming statistic for Florida is the fact they’ve allowed 40.3 points and 482.3 yards per game over the last 3 contests. That highly problematic when facing the prospect of facing an explosive LSU offense that’s averaging 54.0 points scored and 566.3 yards gained per game while going 4-0 at home. Florida is a poor 1-3 on the road this year. LSU is 4-0 SU & 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 versus Florida. Give me LSU minus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Texas State -125 v. Coastal Carolina | 23-31 | Loss | -125 | 16 h 12 m | Show | |
Texas State @ Coastal Carolina 3:30 PM ET Game# 153-154 Play On: Texas State -125 Both teams enter this contest with 6-3 records. Here’s the thing, Coastal Carolina has gone 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 while Texas State is just 2-2. Nevertheless, Texas State shows up as a road favorite in this Sun Belt Conference matchup which speaks volumes to me. Texas State is coming off an impressive 45-24 win over a solid Georgia Southern team. Give me Texas State as a money line favorite. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Utah +9 v. Washington | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 16 h 12 m | Show | |
Utah @ Washington 3:30 PM ET Game# 177-178 Play On: Utah +9.0 Do you want to know why Washington is 9-0 and is on the outside looking in when it comes to the College Football Playoff picture? Well I’m glad you asked. The Huskies last 5 wins have all come by 10 points or fewer. The Washington defense has allowed 33 points or greater and 499 yards or more during 3 of their previous 4 games. Conversely Utah is 7-2 with their only losses coming to #6 Oregon and #12 Oregon State. Utah has scored 34 points or great and gained 445 points or more in 3 of their last 4 contests. The Utes productive running game will be highly effective in this game and in turn control time of possession while limiting offensive possessions for thus high scoring Huskies. Give me Utah plus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Oklahoma State v. Central Florida +2.5 | Top | 3-45 | Win | 100 | 16 h 10 m | Show |
Oklahoma State @ UCF 3:30 PM ET Game# 141-142 Play On: UCF +2.5 Oklahoma State has been a resurgent team after a an uninspiring 2-2 start to the season. The Cowboys have gone a red-hot 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5 games which included wins over nationally ranked teams Kansas, Kansas State, and Oklahoma. Yet, here they are as just a 2.5-point favorite over a UCF team that’s 4-5 and has been a huge disappointment considering their preseason expectations. If it looks to good to be true when pertaining to sports betting it usually is. College Football teams like UCF that are +3.0 to -3.0 that’s playing an opponent like Oklahoma State who’s coming off 4 or more ATS covers in a row, resulted in those teams going 35-13 ATS (72.9%) since 2019. Give me UCF plus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Arizona -10 v. Colorado | 34-31 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 43 m | Show | |
Arizona @ Colorado 2:00 PM ET Game# 169-170 Play On: Arizona -10.0 After a promising 3-0 start that saw them ranked in the Top 25, Colorado has lost 5 of their last 6 and will be hard pressed to become bowl eligible. During this current 6-game funk, Colorado has allowed 33.9 points and 469.0 yards per contest. They will be play against a surging Arizona team that’s gone 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3 while allowing 13.3 points and 304.0 yards per game. Their last 2 of those wins coming off quality wins over UCLA and Oregon State. These are 2 teams headed on opposite paths. Give me Arizona minus points. | |||||||
11-11-23 | Texas Tech +4 v. Kansas | 16-13 | Win | 100 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
Texas Tech @ Kansas 12:00 PM ET Game# 159-160 Play On Texas Tech +4.0 Kansas is coming off back-to-back upset wins versus Oklahoma and at Iowa State. Now they find themselves as just a small home favorite versus a 4-5 Texas Tech team. Additionally, up next for the #17 Jayhawks is #7 Texas. This seems like a fishy line and a potential flat for Kansas. Speaking of Texas Tech, they’re coming off a 35-28 home win over TCU. The Red Raiders are 1-3 SU on the road but have played much better during those contests than that poor record indicates. During those 4 away contests they are a +0.8-point differential and +78.0 yard per game differential. Give me Texas Tech plus the points. | |||||||
11-10-23 | North Texas v. SMU -17 | 21-45 | Win | 100 | 29 h 38 m | Show | |
North Texas @ SMU 9:00 PM ET Game# 119-120 Play On: SMU -17.0 SMU has gone 4-0 SU&ATS during the previous 4 seasons versus North Texas and won by an average substantial margin of 28.3 points per game. The Mustangs are 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3 contests with an average victory margin of 39.3 points per outing and outgained those opponents by an enormous 339.4 yards per game. Furthermore, SMU is 4-0 SU&ATS at home this season and won by a massive average margin of 42.7 points per game. SMU will be facing a 3-6 North Texas team which allows an average of 36.7 points and 469.0 yards per game. Any college football home favorite of between 10.0 and 31.5 like SMU with a win percentage of .777 or better, and they’re coming off 3 wins in a row in which they scored 36 points or greater on each occasion, versus an opponent like TCU with a win percentage of .200 or better that’s coming off 2 or more consecutive losses, resulted in those home favorites going 8-0 SU&ATS since 2002 and they won by an average of 32.8 points per contest. Give me SMU minus points. | |||||||
11-10-23 | Yale +12.5 v. Gonzaga | 71-86 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Yale @ Gonzaga 9:00 PM ET Game# 859-860 Play On: Yale +12.5 This line and the ensuing line movement caught my attention in a big way. We have the college basketball powerhouse #11 ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs as just a 12.5-point home favorite versus an Ivy League team. Furthermore, the number opened at 14.5 and was bet down to as low as 12.0 with some razor-sharp money. This will be the season opener while Yale already has a game under the belt in which they came away with a 102-53 win over Vassar who’s a division 2 school Vassar and they shot a sizzling hot 63% in that contest. Granted they’ll be stepping way up in class tonight. However, Yale returns 4 starters from last season’s 21-9 team that lost to Vanderbilt in the NIT. This is also a Yale program which has gone a combined 85-36 over their past 4 seasons under current head coach James Jones and reached the NCAA Tournament twice. Give me Yale plus the points. | |||||||
11-10-23 | Tennessee v. Wisconsin +2.5 | 80-70 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
Tennessee @ Wisconsin 9:00 PM ET Game# 861-862 Play On: Wisconsin +2.5 Tennessee may be the most talented and athletic team in this matchup. However, the Badgers have traditionally had a strong home court advantage and return all 5 starters from last year’s 20-15 team which reached the NIT Semifinal. That type of experience coupled with a consistent winning culture will pay dividends against the #8 ranked Volunteers. Give me Wisconsin plus points. | |||||||
11-10-23 | San Diego State v. BYU -125 | 65-74 | Win | 100 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
San Diego State @ BYU 9:00 PM ET Game# 863-864 Play On: BYU -125 This line seems a bit fishy to me since we have the unranked BYU Cougars as a favorite versus #17 San Diego State who reached the national championship game this past April. Additionally, the Aztecs are coming off an extremely impressive 2nd half performance during their season opening 83-57 blowout win over CS-Fullerton in a game they led by just 2 at the half. BYU returns 4 starters from a team that went 19-15 a season ago. Not to mention this game will be played before an electric sellout crowd of 17,978 in Provo. They’re begging us to take the underdog in this spot. Nonetheless, I’m not taking the bait. Give me BYU on the money line. | |||||||
11-09-23 | Panthers v. Bears -3 | 13-16 | Push | 0 | 9 h 12 m | Show | |
Panthers @ Bears 8:15 PM ET Game# 113-114 Play On: Bears -3.0 The Bears will stick to their offensive strength and that’s running the ball. Although the Bears are a poor 1-3 at home this season, they’ve averaged 157 yards rushing per contest and 4.7 yards per attempt. Conversely, Carolina is 0-4 SU&ATS on the road while losing by an average of 15.8 points per game and they surrendered 149 yards rushing per contest. Give me the Bears minus points. | |||||||
11-09-23 | Bucks v. Pacers +3 | 124-126 | Win | 100 | 7 h 33 m | Show | |
Bucks @ Pacers 7:10 PM ET Game# 501-502 Play On: Pacers +3.0 Milwaukee is 5-2 to start the season. However, 4 of those 5 wins have come by 5 points or fewer and with the line exception being a 122-114 home victory over Miami. As a matter of fact, despite their 5-2 record, the Bucks are a -2.3 points per game differential and a -7.1 rebound per game differential. Additionally, throughout their previous 4 contests they’re an abysmal -12.3 rebound per game differential. The Bucks offense has been as explosive as it’s been in recent years. However, their play at the defensive end of the floor has been terrible. Indiana will be playing the finale of a 5-game homestand today. The Pacers have been victorious in their last 2 with blowout wins over Utah 134-118 and San Antonio 152-111. The Pacers are 5-3 and 0.5 games behind Milwaukee in the standings, yet they have a superior point per game differential of +4.8 compared to the Bucks -2.3. Any NBA home team like Indiana that’s coming off 2 or more home wins in a row, versus an opponent like Milwaukee that’s coming off a home win in which they scored 110 points or greater, resulted in those home teams going 55-19 SU since the 2019-2020 season. The SU betting angle takes on added significance because it backs the underdog in this spot. Give me the +Pacers plus points. | |||||||
11-08-23 | Jackson State +1.5 v. San Diego | 61-87 | Loss | -120 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
Jackson State @ San Diego 10:00 PM ET Game# 306541-306542 Play On: Jackson State +1.5 This line jumped right off the screen last night and even more this morning. San Diego opened as a 2.5-point home favorite and that line has fallen to 1.5 as of this writing. San Diego plays in the WCC with the likes of nationally ranked Gonzaga and St. Mary’s. They’re led by veteran head coach Steve Lavin who’s had arguably more success as a television personality than a college basketball head coach. San Diego was less than impressive in their 68-64 home win on Monday over Sonoma State that plays at the Division II level. Jackson State returns all 5 starters from a team that began last season 1-12 and then finished 13-7 over their last 20 games. That poor start can be attributed to a an extremely tough non-conference schedule in which they managed to pull at upset as a 12.5 underdog at SMU. They also were extremely competitive in road losses to Michigan by 10, Mississippi State by 10, and Tulsa by 6. Despite that poor start to last season they were still 8-5 ATS during those contests. The opened this season on Monday with a 94-77 road loss to a very good Memphis team in which they covered as a 21.5-point underdog. Give me Jackson State. | |||||||

Raptors @ Mavericks 8:40 PM ET Game# 573-574 Play On: Toronto +4.5 Despite being 6-1 to starts this season which includes 3-0 at home, Dallas finds itself as just a 4.5-point favorite versus a 3-4 Toronto team. Furthermore, this line opened at 6.0 and has come down to 4.5 even with most individual bets and money going the way of Dallas. This will only the 3rd game in 7 days for Toronto. Conversely, Dallas will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days. The Mavericks are a very talented team, but their defensive play leaves much to be desired and should rear its ugly head even more so when playing against an opponent with a clear advantage in terms of rest. Give me the Raptors plus points. | |||||||

Ohio @ Buffalo 7:00 PM ET Game# 101-102 Play On: Buffalo +7.5 Buffalo went an abysmal 0-4 in the non-conference portion of their schedule. However, since conference action began, they are a respectable 3-2 while only allowing 16.8 points and 285.8 yards per game in addition to forcing 13 turnovers. Ohio is 6-3 overall but just 3-2 in MAC action. The Bobcats have lost 2 of their last 3 and failed to cover on each occasion. Give me Buffalo plus points. | |||||||
11-06-23 | Chargers -3 v. Jets | 27-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
Chargers @ Jets 8:15 PM ET Game# 475-476 Play On: Chargers -3.0 This line doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me and when that occurs, I predominately go against what appears to be the obvious choice. The Chargers are 3-4 and the Jets 4-3. New York has won 3 consecutive games. However, it’s the Chargers who are better than a field goal road favorite versus an opponent with a better record. The Chargers are coming off a 30-13 home win over Chicago in which they covered as a 9.5-point favorite. Any NFL away favorite of 3.5 or less with a losing record that’s coming off a home favorite ATS win in which they covered by 25.0 or less and scored 21 points or more, versus an opponent with a .400 or better win percentage, resulted in those away favorites like the Chargers going 15-1 ATS (93.8%) since 1984. Give me the Chargers minus points. | |||||||
11-05-23 | Bills +2.5 v. Bengals | Top | 18-24 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 35 m | Show |
Buffalo @ Cincinnati 8:15 PM ET Game# 8:20 PM ET Play On: Buffalo +2.5 A lot of people have written off Buffalo but I’m not one of them. Granted they’ve looked anything like a serious Super Bowl contender during a listless 5-3 start to the season. Now they’re about to face a Cincinnati team that’s rounded into form over the last 3 games and very much appears like they’re going on another deep postseason run. However, why are they just a 2.5-point home favorite? This looks like a huge trap to take the small home favorite that’s on a red-hot roll right now. However. keep in mind that Buffalo hasn’t been an underdog very much in recent seasons but when that occurs, they’ve been money in the bank. Specifically speaking, the Bills are 6-0 ATS including 5-1 SU in their last 6 as a regular season underdog of 3.0 or less while averaging a massive 39.2 points scored per game. Their only SU loss in that sequence came when Kyler Murray hooked up with Deandre Hopkins on a miracle Hail Mary pass on the last playoff the game which enable Arizona to defeat Buffalo 34-32. Give me the Bills plus points as my NFL Top Play of the Week. | |||||||
11-05-23 | Colts v. Panthers OVER 44 | 27-13 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 21 m | Show | |
Colts @ Panthers 4:05 PM ET Game# 467-468 Play On: Over 44.0 The Colts have scored 21 points or more in a66 8 games this season while playing 6-2 to the over. As a matter of fact, Indy has played 3-0 to the over in their last 3 with a combined 66.3 points scored per game. The negative aspect of all that for the Colts is their defense is border line atrocious while allowing 28.6 points and 371.3 yards per game. Dring their previous 3 hames they’ve allowed 37, 39, and 38 points respectively. The Panthers are no offensive juggernaut but they have averaged 20.0 points scored per game in their last 5 and look for them to improve on that number versus a Porous Colts defensive unit. The Panthers aren’t without their defensive issues as well while allowing 37 points or more in 3 of their last 5. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
11-05-23 | Rams +3 v. Packers | 3-20 | Loss | -100 | 18 h 20 m | Show | |
Rams @ Packers 1:00 PM ET Game# 459-460 Play On: Rams +3.0 I don’t care if it’s Mathew Stafford or Brett Rypien at quarterback for the Rams. I’m fading the Packers either way. Packers quarterback Jordan Love is looking more and more like a genuine first round bust. The Packers are 0-4 SU&ATS in their last 4 contests. Furthermore, their previous 3 losses came versus Las Vegas, Denver, and Minnesota, none of which currently possess a winning record. The Rams are coming off back-to-back losses versus Pittsburgh and Dallas who have a combined 10-5 record. Any NFL road underdog of 3.5 or less like the Rams that’s coming off a SU loss who has a win percentage of .300 or better, versus an opponent like Green Bay who’s playing after Game 7 and has lost 4 or more games in a row with the last defeat coming by 10 points or more, resulted in those away underdogs going 15-0 SU&ATS since 1981. Those underdogs won all 15 of those contests SU and by an average of 8.5 points per game. Give me the Rams plus points. | |||||||
11-05-23 | Bucs +3 v. Texans | 37-39 | Win | 100 | 18 h 19 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay @ Houston 1:00 PM ET Game# 461-462 Play On: Tampa Bay +3.0 Despite their uninspiring 3-4 record which includes a current 3-game losing streak, Tampa Bay is still very much a contender in a wide open NFC South race. The Bucs have been much better on the road than at home this season while going 2-1 SU&3-0 ATS during those contests. Houston is coming off a 15-13 road loss to then winless Carolina which dropped their season record to 3-4. Any NFL away underdog of 4.0 or less like Tampa Bay that has a win percentage of .400 to .490, versus an opponent like Houston that’s coming off a SU loss and they possess a win percentage of .400-.490, resulted in those away underdogs going 15-1 ATS (93.8%) since 2012. The away underdogs also won 14 of those 16 contests straight up. Give me Tampa Bay plus points. | |||||||

Commanders @ Patriots 1:00 PM ET Game# 463-464 Play On: Commanders +3.0 New England is 0-4 SU&ATS in non-division contests this season while losing by an average of 19.5 points per game. The Patriots are also a poor 1-3 SU&ATS at home and the only time they were a favorite in those 4 contests they failed miserable during a 34-0 blowout loss to New Orleans. New England has been anemic offensively in their dismal 2-6 start to the season while averaging a mere 14.8 points scored per game and 284.8 yards gained per contest. Washington is coming off a disheartening 38-31 home loss to the defending NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles and pushed as a 7.0-point underdog. They outgained the Eagles in that contest by a wide margin of 472-374 and also squandered an early 14-3 lead. However, Washington is a more than respectable 2-2 SU and 3-1 ATS on the road thus far. The Commanders are also a profitable 3-1-1 ATS as an underdog. Give me the Commanders plus points. | |||||||

Chicago @ New Orleans 1:00 PM ET Game# 465-466 Play On: Over 41.0 Since 11/8/2021, Chicago has played 5-0 to the over as a non-division away underdog when the number was between 39.5 and 45.5 and there was a combined average of 60.0 points scored per game. Chicago is coming off last Sunday night’s 30-13 road loss to the Chargers. The Bears are 4-0 to the over in their last 4 when playing the 2nd of back-to-back road games and there was a combined average of 57.5 points scored per game. Chicago has played 6-2 to the over in all games this season and that includes 3-0 when the number is 44.5 or less. New Orleans has gone over the total in their last 2 with a combined 60.0 points scored per game. The New Orleans passing attack is clicking on all cylinders over their previous 3 games while averaging 328.7 yards through the air per contest. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
11-04-23 | LSU +3.5 v. Alabama | 28-42 | Loss | -117 | 26 h 34 m | Show | |
LSU @ Alabama 7:45 PM ET Game# 383-384 Play On: LSU +3.5 Alabama has won 6 straight games since being upset at home by Texas. Nonetheless, 2 of their last 3 wins came by 6 or less and the lone exception was a 34-20 win over Tennessee in which they trailed 20-7 at halftime. The Crimson Tide has scored 26 points or fewer in 5 of the last 7 games. That can be problematic when considering they’ll be facing a dynamic and explosive LSU offense that averages 47.4 points scored and 553.1 yards game per game. That includes 44.2 points scored and 554.6 yards gained per game while going 4-1 in SEC contests. Alabama hasn’t bee this low a home favorite since 9/22/2007 when they were -3.0 versus Georgia and lost 26-23. The current line speaks volumes to me, and the sportsbooks are begging you to take Alabama as a small home favorite. I’m not taking the bait. Give me LSU plus points. | |||||||
11-04-23 | Washington v. USC +3 | 52-42 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 17 m | Show | |
USC @ Washington 7:30 PM ET Game# 371-372 Play On: USC +3.0 USC barely escaped with a 50-49 win over California last Saturday. The trojans national championship aspirations ended after losing back-to-back game to Notre Dame and Utah. The Trojan offense led by star quarterback Caleb Williams is championship caliber, but their defense has been an enigma and a huge liability. However, USC would like nothing better than to hand Washington their first loss of the season and put a dent into their College Football Playoff hopes. They’ll certainly be motivated since they’re an underdog at home. The undefeated Huskies and star quarterback Michael Pennix are very good. However, they haven’t exactly been blowing away the competition of late. As a matter of fact, their last 4 wins have all come by 9 points or fewer. That includes the last 2 versus Arizona State (2-6) and Stanford (2-6). Give me USC plus points. | |||||||

Kansas @ Iowa State 7:00 PM ET Game# 379-380 Play On: Kansas +3.0 Everyone and their Uncle are banking on the fact that Kansas (6-2/.750) is going to in for an emotional letdown after upsetting undefeated Oklahoma at home last Saturday. On most occasions I would agree with that logic, but not in this instance. Yes, Iowa State has gone 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3. Nonetheless, those victories came over TCU, Cincinnati (2-6), and Baylor (2-5). This is also an Iowa State team that lost to the Ohio Bobcats earlier this season and was blown out by 50-20 against Oklahoma. Additionally, since 2021, Iowa State has gone 1-6 SU when facing fellow Big 12 Conference teams with a win percentage of .750 or better. Give me Kansas plus points. | |||||||

Penn State @ Maryland 3:30 PM ET Game# 337-338 Play On: Maryland +9.0 #9 Penn State (7-1) struggled mightily is last week’s 33-24 home win over Indiana in a game they closed as a 31.0-point favorite. Granted they were coming off a deflating 20-12 loss at Ohio State the week before and were extremely flat as a result. However, a string case can be made for the Nittany Lions to be flat again on Saturday when factoring in that they’ll be hosting #2 Michigan 7 days later, and they’re facing a Maryland team which has lost 3 straight contests. Don’t sleep on Maryland because of their recent funk. The Terrapins are still 5-3 even with their recent struggles. They’ll be out to atone for 2 consecutive losses as a double-digit favorite against Northwestern and Illinois. Their other loss was a 37-17 defeat at #3 Ohio State in which the game was much closer than the final score indicates. The Terrapins trailed that contest 20-17 with less than 11 minutes to play before Ohio State finished the contest with 17 unanswered points. Give me Maryland plus points. | |||||||

Jacksonville State @ South Carolina 12:00 PM ET Game# 331-332 Play On: Jacksonville State +15.5 This will be the largest crowd that Jacksonville State will play in front of all year. The Jaguars enter this matchup versus a team from the mighty SEC with a stellar 7-2 record and this game has far greater meaning to them as opposed to South Carolina. Afterall, the Gamecocks are taking a break from their hear of their SEC schedule to face an opponent who’s a first year FBS participant. Additionally, it’s not like the Gamecocks (2-6) carry a lot of momentum with them heading into this contest considering they’re currently on a 4-game losing streak. It’s also worth noting, Jacksonville State is at a +9 turnover differential this season while South Carolina is -6. Give me Jacksonville State plus points. | |||||||
11-04-23 | Kansas State +3.5 v. Texas | 30-33 | Win | 100 | 18 h 39 m | Show | |
Kansas State @ Texas 12:00 PM ET Game# 405-406 Play On: Kansas State +3.5 Considering Texas is without their starting quarterback Quinn Ewers, and how both teams have performed during recent game, I strongly believe the underdog is the better team at this juncture. To be clear, I didn’t say the more talented squad, but the better team. Kansas State has lost the last 6 versus Texas, but 5 of those 6 contests were decided by 7 points or fewer. Since Quinn Ewers went down with an injury, the Texas offense has put up pedestrian numbers of 362 and 354 total yards in those 2 games which is well below their season average of 454.4. Since being upset at Oklahoma State, #25 Kansas State has gone 3-0 SU&ATS and outscored their opponents (Houston, Texas Tech, TCU) by a cumulative score of 120-24. Give me Kansas State plus points. | |||||||

Arkansas @ Florida 12:00 PM ET Game# 399-400 Play On: Florida -3.0 The public has hammered the underdog Razorbacks in this contest to the point this line went from 5.5 to 3.5 over the last 24 hours. Granted. Arkansas has been a tough luck team this season when considering that 5 of their 6 losses have come by 7 points or fewer. Nonetheless, all 6 of those defeats have come over their previous 6 games. The Razorbacks have found ways to lose games they deserved to win on a couple of occasions. When teams are stuck in that mode for a prolonged period, they become mentally fragile. Furthermore, the Razorbacks offense has been anemic over their last 4 contests while averaging a mere 16.5 points scored and 227.5 yards gained per game. They’ll be facing a Florida Gators team that’s a perfect 4-0 at home this season with an average victory margin of 23.5 points per game and includes an upset win over #19 Tennessee. I’ll be in the minority with this pick, but that’s perfectly fine with me. Give me Florida minus points. | |||||||

Mavericks @ Nuggets 8:10 PM ET Game# 571-572 Play On: Under 226.0 Denver has played 5-0 to the under this season. The average total in those 5 contests was 225.1 and there was just a combined 214.4 points scored per game. Those 5 contests averaged only a combined 35 free throw attempts per game and that includes only 14 per contest by Denver. Both numbers are extremely low by NBA standards. Dallas is a very good 3-point shooting team. As a matter of fact, 42.9% of the Mavericks made field goals have come from 3-point territory so far. However, Denver has held their 5 opponents this season to an atrocious 29.6% shooting from beyond the 3-point arc. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||
11-03-23 | Warriors v. Thunder UNDER 226.5 | 141-139 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 0 m | Show | |
Warriors @ Thunder 8:10 PM ET Game# 569-570 Play On: Under 226.5 During the daily quest to be a successful sports bettor it requires us to make the occasional uncomfortable bet. This qualifies as one of those situations for me. Nevertheless, Golden State has played 3-0 to the under this season whenever the number was 225.0 or greater and only a combined 217.0 points were scored per game. The Warriors are a very underrated defensive team and have allowed 108 points or fewer during 4 of their 5 games this season. As a matter of fact, throughout their previous 3 contests, Golden State allowed 99.3 points per game and held opponents to 39.9% shooting. Oklahoma City has also played 3-0 to the under this season when the number was 225.0 or greater and there was a combined average of only 217.3 points scored per game. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||

That’s a major reason why they’re off to a poor 1-3 start to the season. Additionally, 3 of those 4 contests went over the total with a combined average of 241.4 points scored per game. Miami has played 3-2 to the under thus far. The Heat did go under in their previous game and have tet to go under in back-to-back games. Miami has played 2-0 to the over following an under this season with combined points scored of 230 and 236 during those contests. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
11-03-23 | Boston College +3 v. Syracuse | 17-10 | Win | 100 | 29 h 50 m | Show | |
Boston College @ Syracuse 7:30 PM ET Game# 317-318 Play On: Boston College +3.0 Syracuse has been consistent with their recent trend under current head coach Dino Babers on getting off to fast starts while facing a soft schedule, and then tailing off once getting into the heart of ACC action. The Orange began the season 4-0 while facing opponents the likes of Colgate (2-5), Western Michigan (3-6), Purdue (2-6), and Army (2-6). Since that time, they’ve gone 0-4 SU&ATS while being outscored by 29.0 points and outgained by 298.8 yards per game. The low point may have come in last week’s 38-10 loss against an average at best Virginia Tech team where they were outgained in total yards by a decisive margin of 528-138. They’ve scored 14 points or fewer and amassed 286 yards or less of total offense in each of those 4 losses. Conversely, Boston College enters this week on a 4-game win streak and is just 1 victory shy of bowl eligibility. The Eagles have already far exceeded College Football so-called expert’s preseason predictions. The Eagles are coming off a 21-14 home win over Connecticut in a game they outgained the Huskies 433-222 and wasn’t as close as the final score indicates. Any College Football away team like Boston College that’s won 4 or more games in a row and their previous victory came by 9 points or fewer, versus an opponent like Syracuse who’s lost 4 or more consecutive games in a row, and their last defeat came by 6 points or more while also allowing 30 points or more, resulted in those away teams going 26-2 SU (92.3%) since 1986. The SU betting angle takes on added value since it backs the underdog in this matchup. Give me Boston College plus points. | |||||||
11-02-23 | Titans +3 v. Steelers | 16-20 | Loss | -117 | 10 h 44 m | Show | |
Titans @ Steelers 8:15 PM ET Game# 309-310 Play On: Titans +3.0 Tennessee is coming off a much needed 28-23 win over Atlanta in a game they closed as a 2.5-point home underdog. 2023 first round draft choice quarterback Will Levis was brilliant in his starting debut while throwing for 4 touchdowns against 0 interceptions. Pittsburgh is coming off a 20-10 loss to Jacksonville in a game they closed as a 2.5-point home underdog. The Steelers have a deceiving 4-3 record. I say that because they’ve been outscored by 4.9 yards and outgained by 110.9 yards per game. Not exactly the type of numbers that’s conducive to a winning record. Their defense has been very good, but the offense has been a polar opposite and that’s atrocious. The Steelers have scored just 9 offensive touchdowns throughout their 7 games this season. Any NFL non-division away underdog of 3.0 or less like Tennessee that’s coming off a home underdog SU win in which they covered by 6.5-points or greater, resulted in those away underdogs going 11-0 ATS since 2019. Give me the Titans plus points. | |||||||

Raptors @ 76ers 7:10 PM ET Game# 555-556 Play On: 76ers -8.0 I had Toronto last night and that result was never in doubt from the start has they blew out Milwaukee 130-11 as a 5.0-point home underdog. However, I don’t like this sport at all for them tonight. Toronto will be playing their 3rd game in 4 days. Additionally, they’ll be facing an opponent in Philadelphia which will be playing with 3 days rest since their last game. These teams met in Toronto last week and Philadelphia walked away with a 114-107 win despite Toronto making 53.1% of their 3-point shot attempts. I will go out on a limb and say the Raptors won’t come anywhere close to that in this one. Give me the 76ers minus points. | |||||||

Panthers @ Red Wings 7:07 PM ET Game# 39-40 Play On: Panthers -114 Starting with 2021-2022 season, Florida is 7-0 versus Detroit and that includes 4-0 in away games. After a hot start, Florida is 1-3 versus the money line in their last 4 and that includes 0-2 at home. Additionally, we have a situation in this one where the money line home underdog has a better record and more points at this point. You would think there would be a ton of betting value on the home underdog in this spot. However, it’s seldom that easy when it pertains to sports betting. Give me the Florida Panthers as a money line road favorite. | |||||||

Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Diamondbacks (Gallen) 8:03 PM ET Game# 955-956 Play On: Diamondbacks -105 Nathan Eovaldi has an extremely profitable track record during his career postseason starts. This year has been no different when considering the Rangers are 5-0 this postseason when Eovaldi is their starting pitcher. However, he was uninspiring in the World Series opener when he allowed 5 earned runs during just 4 2/3 innings pitched versus Arizona. The Rangers have some wiggle room in this spot knowing that even if they lose, they’ll have 2 chances at home to capture the franchise’s first ever World Series crown. Zac Gallen has not been in good form over his last 3 starts. However, 2 of those outings came on the road where he was an ordinary at best pitcher all season. Nonetheless, Gallen is 12-5 during his home team starts this season with a brilliant 2.67 ERA/1.05 WHIP and a better than 6:1 strikeout to walk ration. Galeen made 1 home start versus Texas this season and allowed just 1 earned run in 6.0 innings and struck out 11 batters while doing so. The Diamondbacks bullpen pitched 8.0 innings last night. Arizona is an extremely profitable 15-4 this season immediately following a game in which they pitched 6.0 or more innings. Give me the Diamondbacks on the money line. | |||||||

Rangers (Heany) @ Diamondbacks (Mantiply) 8:03 PM ET Game# 951-952 Play On: Over 9.0 Texas is coming off yesterday’s 3-1 win which marked the first time they stayed under the total in 9 games. The Rangers will go with Andrew Heany on the mound tonight. Heaney hasn’t been god in 2 starts this postseason while recording a sizable 8.29 ERA/1.84 WHIP. Since 2021, Heaney has pitched 25-10 to the over during his team starts against teams with a winning record. Texas is 30-17 this season when facing a left-handed starting pitcher while averaging 6.0 runs scored per game and belting 68 home runs. The Texas bullpen is a bit taxed heading into today after pitching a combined 15.0 innings throughout the first 3 games of this World Series. Arizona will attempt to piece this game together with a bullpen by committee approach. They’ll be facing a potent Texas batting order which has slugged 26 homers in 15 games during this 2023 postseason. This is nothing new when considering the Rangers are averaging 1.46 home runs hit per game this season. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||
10-30-23 | Raiders v. Lions UNDER 46.5 | 14-26 | Win | 100 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
Raiders @ Lions 8:15 PM ET Game# 279-280 Play On: Under 46.5 The Raiders have scored 18 points or fewer in 6 of 7 games this season. The Las Vegas defense has played very good over their last 4 contests while allowing just 293.0 yards per game. The Raiders are coming off a 30-12 loss at Chicago as a favorite of 2.5 and it went over the total of 38.0. Since 2021, the Raiders have played 7-0 to the under on the road when there was a total of 51.0 or less and they’re coming off an over in their previous game. The average total in those 7 contests was 44.4 and there were 34.6 points scored per game. Detroit is coming off an embarrassing 38-6 blowout loss at Baltimore. Since 2021, the Lions have played 7-0 to the under when the number is between 45.5 and 51.5 all with a combined average of 35.1 points scored per game. | |||||||

Rangers (Scherzer) @ Diamondbacks (Pfadt) 8:03 PM ET Game# 945-946 Play On: Rangers -108 I know Max Scherzer hasn’t been sharp in his 2 postseason starts. However, he’s been a proven clutch performer in past postseasons and will shine tonight. Texas is 8-0 on the road during this postseason and has outscored their opponents by a decisive margin 51-21. Brandon Pfadt has pitched extremely well during his last 3 postseason starts. Nonetheless, during his only starts versus Texas in 2023, Pfadt allowed 7 earned runs on 9 hits which included giving up 4 homers. Give me the Rangers on the money line. | |||||||
10-29-23 | Bengals v. 49ers -5 | Top | 31-17 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 44 m | Show |
Bengals @ 49ers 4:25 PM ET Game# 273-274 Play On: 49ers -5.0 Cincinnati is coming off a home favorite ATS 17-13 win over Seattle. Nevertheless, that Bengals win was a bit deceiving since they were outgained in the contest by a wide margin of 169 yards. It was more a result of Seattle failing miserably to cash in on their scoring opportunities more than anything else. San Francisco started the season 5-0 and looked like the best team in the NFL while doing so. However, they’re coming off 2 straight away favorite SU losses against Minnesota and Cleveland. NFL betting history has shown that teams like San Francisco in this exact situation have done very well. NFL home favorites of 3.0 or more that are coming off 2 straight away favorite SU losses and their facing an opponent like Cincinnati who’s coming off a SU&ATS win, resulted in those home favorites going 15-0-1 ATS since 1980, and with an average victory margin of 14.5 points per game. | |||||||

Saints @ Colts 1:00 PM ET Game# 251-252 Play On: Colts +2.5 The Colts have shot themselves in the foot with turnovers in recent games. Otherwise, their offense has been very good over the last 3 contests, and they outgained opponents by 114.0 points per game during that stretch. New Orleans is 2-2 SU on the road, but their 2 wins came over Carolina and New England that have a combined 2-11 record thus far. Give me the Colts plus points. | |||||||
10-29-23 | Jaguars -130 v. Steelers | 20-10 | Win | 100 | 22 h 24 m | Show | |
Jaguars @ Steelers 1:00 PM ET Game# 253-254 Play On: Jaguars -130 (ML) The Steelers are a fraud at 4-2 as they’ve been outscored by 4.0-points and outgained by 110.0 yards per game. Not to mention a turnover differential of -4 through 6 games. Their defense has been their main catalyst which has attributed to their modest early success. However, the Steelers offense is averaging just a mere 273.5 total yards per game and 27:06 in time of possession. Jacksonville enters this matchup red-hot having gone 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 with an average victory margin of 11.3 points per game. The Jags are also 4-0 SU&ATS this season during away and neutral site games. We unequivocally have the better starting quarterback in this matchup with Trevor Lawrence over Kenny Pickett. The Jags are a noteworthy +6 in the turnover department this season. Give me the Jaguars as a money line favorite. | |||||||

Vikings @ Packers 1:00 PM ET Game# 267-268 Play On: Vikings -110 (ML) The Packers were off to an encouraging 2-1 start and things have gone south since. Green Bay is 0-3 SU&ATS in their last 3 games and their offense has averaged just 16.0 points scored and 282.0 yards gained per contest during this current losing streak. Conversely, the Vikings defense has really stepped up their game of late. Throughout their previous 4 contests Minnesota has allowed 16.5 points and 291.3 yards per game. Since 2021, Minnesota is 7-2 SU as a road favorite. During that same 3-year stretch, the Vikings are 5-0 SU when coming off 2 games in a row that went under the total. Once again, we have a decided starting quarterback advantage in this matchup with Kirk Cousins over Jordan Love. Give me the Vikings on the money line. | |||||||

Colorado State @ Air Force 7:00 PM ET Game# 161-162 Play On: Air Force -14.0 Any conference away favorite like Air Force of between 12.0 and 21.0 with a win percentage of .500 or better who’s playing after Game 7 and is coming off a win in which they allowed 31 points or fewer, versus an opponent like Colorado State who has a losing record and is coming off an ATS cover, resulted in those away favorites going 33-4 ATS (89.1%) since 2014. Give me Air Force minus points. | |||||||
10-28-23 | Wyoming +4.5 v. Boise State | Top | 7-32 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 11 m | Show |
Wyoming @ Boise State 5:30 PM ET Game# 163-164 Play On: Wyoming +5.0 Wyoming is a perfect 4-0 ATS as an underdog this season and won 2 of those contests straight up. The Cowboys will be well rested after having their last week off and after a game in which they gave nationally ranked Air Force (7-0) all they can handle in a 34-27 road loss while covering as a 12.5-point underdog. Wyoming is at a +6-turnover differential for the season and hasn’t turned the ball over during each of their previous 3 games. In my professional opinion, Boise State has been overvalued all season due to their winning tradition. This is another prime example of such. The Broncos have really struggled defensively over their previous 4 contests while allowing 31.0 points and 399.0 yards per game. Give me Wyoming plus points. | |||||||

UL-Lafayette @ South Alabama 5:00 PM ET Game# 205-206 Play On: UL-Lafayette +11.0 Any conference away underdog of between 4.5 and 13.5 with a win percentage of .625 or worse like UL-Lafayette, and they’re playing in Games 6 through 9, and they’re coming off a home favorite SU loss by 19 points or fewer, resulted in those away underdogs going 31-1 ATS (96.8%) since 2016. Those underdogs also won 20 of those 32 games outright. Give me UL-Lafayette plus the points. | |||||||
10-28-23 | Virginia v. Miami-FL -18.5 | 26-29 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 16 m | Show | |
Virginia @ Miami Fla. 3:30 PM ET Game# 131-132 Play On: Miami -18.5 Miami is coming off an impressive 28-20 win over Clemson. Virginia is coming off a massive 31-27 upset win over undefeated North Carolina and did so as a 24.0-point home underdog. Additionally, it was the 1st win over an FBS opponent by Virginia this season. This creates a rare betting situation that shows teams like Virginia fall from grace extremely quickly in their next game after pulling off a stunner of this magnitude. Any College Football away underdog of between 10.0 and 35.0 that’s playing before Game 12 and is coming off an away underdog of 17.0 or more SU win in which they scored 21 points or greater, versus an opponent like Miami who is coming off a SU win, resulted in those away underdogs going 0-7 ATS since 1987. The average margin of defeat in those contests came by an enormous 39.3 points per game. | |||||||

Mississippi State @ Auburn 3:30 PM ET Game# 197-198 Play On: Mississippi State +6.5 Mississippi State is coming off a 7-3 upset win at Arkansas in a game they closed as a 7.0-point underdog. That victory improved their season record to 4-3 (.571). The Bulldogs are now 13-9 SU in their last 22 games. Auburn will enter this SEC battle on a 4-game losing streak and their season record is currently 3-4 (.428). Any College Football away underdog of between 1.5 to 7.5 like Mississippi State who’s coming off a conference away underdog SU win, they have a win percentage of .555 or better and won 11 or more of their last 22 games, versus an opponent like Auburn who has a win percentage of .714 or worse, resulted in those road underdogs going 20-0 ATS since 2003. Those underdogs also won 14 of those 20 games outright. Give me Mississippi State plus points. | |||||||

The average margin of victory in those 16 contests came by a decisive margin of 27.2 points per game. Give me Kansas State minus points. | |||||||
10-27-23 | Diamondbacks v. Rangers -1.5 | 5-6 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
Diamondbacks (Gallen) @ Rangers (Eovaldi) 8:03 PM ET Game# 941-942 Play On: Rangers -1.5 (+134) Zac Gallen has been shaky over his last 3 postseason starts as evidenced by a 6.06 ERA/1.53 WHIP and 6 home runs allowed in 16 1/3 innings pitched. The latter home run to innings pitched ratio is especially concerning with Texas having hit 22 homers in 12 postseason games. Furthermore, the Rangers are averaging an enormous average of 1.79 homers hit per game at home this season. Nathan Eovaldi is an extremely profitable 10-1 during his career team starts in October. That includes 4-0 this year with a brilliant 2.42 ERA/0.96 WHIP and an average of 6.5 inning pitched per start. Texas reached the World series with a convincing 11-4 win in a deciding Game 7 at Houston. The Rangers are 21-6 this season following a game in which they scored 10 runs or more and outscored those 27 opponents by an average of 2.7 runs per outing. Give me the Rangers as a run-line favorite. | |||||||
10-26-23 | Wild v. Flyers UNDER 6 | 2-6 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
Wild @ Flyers 7:37 PM ET Game# 47-48 Play On: Under 6.0 My only regret is that I didn’t jump on this total earlier when it was 6.5. However, I’m still comfortable going under this current number. Minnesota has played 5-0 to the over in their last 5 with a combined average of 9.6 goals scored per game. The Wild have certainly played some teams along the way that were good fits to their wide-open type of style they prefer to play. That won’t be the case tonight when facing a Flyers team which has allowed only 26.6 shots on goal per game during their previous 5 outings. Additionally, the Flyers penalty killing has been very good and their power play which is 1-20 (5%) in their first 6 games has been awful. The Flyers goaltender Carter Hart is off to a superb start to the season while recording a sparkling .922 save percentage. Furthermore, during his 2 home starts Carter has posted a 0.50 GAA and stopped 47 of 48 shots on goal. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||
10-26-23 | Georgia State +1.5 v. Georgia Southern | 27-44 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 55 m | Show | |
Georgia State @ Georgia Southern 7:30 PM ET Game# 113-114 Play On: Georgia State +1.5 Georgia Southern is 5-2 but failed to cover in their last 2 games. Throughout their previous 3 games, the Georgia Southern defense has allowed 32.3 points and 427.0 yards per game. Georgia State enters this contest with a stellar 6-1 record which includes going 3-0 SU&ATS on the road. In a game between 2 seemingly even matched teams, it could simply come down to who wins the turnover battle. Georgia State has committed just 7 turnovers in 7 games this season. Conversely, Georgia Southern has committed 7 during just their 2 last games alone, and has an alarming high 17 giveaways on the season. Georgia State is 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5 conference away games when the point-spread was between +6.0 and -6.0. Any College Football team like Georgia State with a point-spread between +8.5 to -8.5 who has a winning record, and they’re coming off a SU underdog win, versus an opponent like Georgia Southern that has a win percentage of .600 to .800, resulted in those teams like Georgia State going a perfect 8-0 SU&ATS since 2019. The average line for those winning teams in that exact situation was -1.8 and they won by an average of 15.6 points per contest. Give me Georgia State. | |||||||

Jets @ Red Wings 7:05 PM ET Game# 37-38 Play On: Jets -120 Detroit is coming off a 5-4 home overtime loss to Seattle that halted a 5-game win streak. Winnipeg is coming off a division 4-2 home win over St. Louis which evened their money line record at 3-3. Yet, it’s the Jets that are currently a favorite on the road in this matchup. That certainly speaks volumes to me. Additionally, since the 2021-2022 season, Detroit has gone an abysmal 2-15 versus the money line immediately following a 1-goal home loss. The Red Wings are also 4-18 against the money line following a home loss by any margin since the start of last season. Any NHL money line road favorite like Winnipeg that’s coming off a division home win, versus an opponent like Detroit that’s coming off a home game in which both teams scored 3 goals or more, resulted in those road favorites going 28-4 (87.5%) over the past 5 seasons and 14-1 (93.3%) throughout the previous 3 seasons. Give me the Jets as a money line favorite. | |||||||

Jacksonville State @ FIU 7:00 PM ET Game# 105-106 Play On: Over 49.5 Neither defense has played well in each of their last 4 games. During their last 4 FIU is allowing 31.5 points and 455.0 yards per game. Conversely, Jacksonville State has given up 25.3 points and 439.8 yards per game throughout their previous 4. Each offense has shown improvement over each of their previous 3 contests that exceeds their season offensive numbers. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||

New Mexico State @ Louisiana Tech 7:00 PM ET Game# 101-102 Play On: Over 54.0 Since 2021, Louisiana Tech has played 12-2 to the over at home with a combined 66.4 points scored per game. As a matter of fact, they’ve played 3-0 to the over during their last 3 home this year and with a combined average of 70.7 points scored per game. New Mexico State has played an extremely soft schedule this year. However, the 1 qulaity team that faced was Liberty (7-0) and they allowed 33 points and 526 yards. The Aggies have a very good rushing attack that averages a tad over 200 yards per game and better than 6.0 yards per attempt. They’ll be facing a Louisina Tech defense which is allowing 199 yards rushing per game. During their last 3 contests, the Aggies are averaging 29.7 points scored per game, 445.3 yards gained per contest, and an impressive 7.0 yards per offensive play. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||

During that stretch, their defense allowed only 280.0 yards per game while the offense accounted for just 271.3 yards per contest. San Francisco is coming off a 19-17 upset loss at Cleveland in a game they closed as a 9.5-point favorite. However, San Francisco is #2 in scoring defense thus far while allowing a mere 14.5 points scored per contests. Any NFL team like the 49ers that’s playing after Game 2 in a Monday night contest, and they’re coming off a SU favorite loss in which they allowed 38 points or fewer, resulted in those games playing 18-0 to the under since 2019. There was a combined average of 39.5 points scored per game. Additionally, 8 of those contests had a total of 46.5 or less and those averaged a combined 35.9 points scored per game. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||

Rangers (Scherzer) @ Astros (Javier) 8:03 PM ET Game# 933-934 Play On: Over 9.0 Max Scherzer has a reputation as a clutch postseason pitcher. However, I’m not showing him that type of respect at this stage of career and specifically today. Scherzer’s has made 2 starts versus Houston since 9/6 and had a terrible 12.00 ERA/2.00 WHIP in those outings. Houston’s Christian Javier has made 2 starts versus Texas in 2023 with an awful 9.00 ERA. The last 5 games of this ALCS have played 4-0-1 to the over. There’s been an extremely high percentage of bets and money placed on the under. I’m going with a contrarian approach. Give me this game to go over the total. | |||||||

Dolphins @ Eagles 8:20 PM ET Game# 471-472 Play On: Dolphins +3.0 Both teams enter this much anticipated matchup with stellar 5-1 (.833) records. Nevertheless, Miami was the more impressive of the 2 teams. Philadelphia has outscored their opponents by an average of 5.1 points and outgained them by 97.0 yards per game. Conversely, Miami has outscored opponents by an average of 11.2 points and outgained them by 155.0 yards per game. The Eagles are coming off their first loss of the season as they fell 20-14 on the road last Sunday at the New York Jets. Miami is coming off a 42-21 home win over Carolina. Any non-division away team like Miami with a point-spread of between +3.0 to -3.0 that’s playing after Game 4 and has a win percentage of .500 or better, versus an opponent coming off 2 consecutive away games with the last of which being a SU loss by 6 points or more, resulted in those away teams going 8-0 SU&ATS since 2018.

Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Astros (Valdez) 8:03 PM ET Game# 925-926 Play On: Rangers +105 Houston continued its season long trend of being a fantastic road team by sweeping the 3 games in Texas and put themselves 1 win away from reaching another World Series. However, the Astros are just 40-45 at home this season and that includes going 3-10 in the last 13. Framber Valdez is scheduled to be on the mound for Houston tonight and he’s recently being in terrible form. During his last 4 starts, Valdez posted an awful 9.92 ERA/2.14 WHIP and averaged just 4.1 innings pitched per outing. It was a huge disappointment for Texas to lose all 3 at home after winning the first 2 of this NLCS at Houston. However, they can take solace in knowing that they’re a perfect 6-0 on the road this postseason. Additionally, Nathan Eovaldi get the start in Game 6 and he’s been in terrific form over 3 postseason starts while going 3-0 with a 2.29 ERA/0.86 WHIP. As a matter of fact, Eovaldi is 13-2 in his career postseason team starts and opponents averaged a mere 2.9 runs scored per outing during those 15 games.

10-22-23 | Chargers v. Chiefs -5 | 17-31 | Win | 100 | 26 h 56 m | Show | |
Chargers @ Chiefs 4:25 PM ET Game# 467-468 Play On: Chiefs -5.0 The Chargers are coming off a 20-17 home loss to Dallas which dropped their season record to an underachieving 2-3 (.400). The Chargers have lost 3 consecutive games to Kansas City, but all 3 defeats came by 6 points or fewer. However, this is a much better Chiefs defense than the ones they faced in the previous 3 meetings. I’ve heard a lot of chatter this week about Kansas City being an overvalued home favorite in recent years. However, my trusted 4d Handicapping Software Program tells me differently. The Chiefs are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 and 12-7 ATS during their previous 19 as a home favorite. That includes 6-0 SU and 5-1 ATS when facing opponents like the Chargers that are coming off a SU loss, and with a decisive average victory margin of 19.0 points per game. The Chiefs have won 5 in a row since an opening night 21-20 home loss to Detroit (5-1). During that stretch, this current win streak, Kansas City’s defense has allowed an average of 13.4 points and 267.2 yards per contest. The Chiefs will also being playing with an additional 3 days rest after defeating Denver 19-8 in a Thursday night game. Any NFL division favorite of -4.5 to -12.5 like Kansas City who’s coming off a division win, versus an opponent like the Chargers who are coming off a SU loss and have a win percentage of between .187 and .428, resulted in those division favorites going 8-0 ATS since 2019. Those teams won those 8 contests by a substantial margin of 16.6 points per game. Give me the Chiefs minus the points. | |||||||

They did so while starting their 3rd quarterback (P.J. Wlaker) in 5 games. Although the Cleveland defense has been spectacular, the same can’t be said for their offense. Despite their 3-2 (.600) record, Cleveland is averaging only 19.0 points scored and 319.8 yards gained per game. The Browns have yet to win 2 in a row and are 0-2 SU&ATS following a victory. The Colts are coming off a 37-20 loss at Jacksonville. That margin of victory was deceiving when considering they held a 354-233 totals yards advantage in that contest. They were plagued by a season high 4 offensive turnovers. Despite the defeat, the Colts are still a respectable 3-3 and that includes 2-0 SU&ATS following a loss. Any NFL home team with a win percentage of .333 or better like the Colts that’s playing after Game 5, and they’re coming off a road loss, versus an opponent like the Browns that are coming off an upset SU win as a home underdog of +7.0 or greater, resulted in those home teams going 25-0 SU since 1995. Considering the SU betting angle supports the underdog in this matchup it takes on even added significance. Give me the Colts plus the points. | |||||||

UNLV also is at an impressive +9 turnover differential while getting off to a stellar 5-1 start to the season. They’ll be facing a 2-3 Colorado State team which has allowed 38.0 points and 485.0 yards per game. The Rams have committed a concerning 11 turnovers through 5 games. Any College Football conference home favorite of 23.0 or less that’s coming off an away favorite ATS win in which they scored 45 points or more, versus an opponent like Colorado State that’s coming off a conference home underdog SU win, resulted in those home favorites going 16-0 SU&ATS since 1981. Give me UNLV minus points. | |||||||

Central Michigan @ Ball State 3:30 PM ET Game# 355-356 Play On: Central Michigan -5.5 Ball State is 0-6 SU this season when facing FBS opponents and were an uninspiring 1-4-1 ATS during those contests. They lost those 6 games by a substantial average of 24.7 points per contest. Central Michigan is coming off a 17-10 home win over Akron. Any college football away favorite of 4.5 to 10.0 like Central Michigan with a winning record that’s coming off a SU win in which they scored and allowed 17 points or fewer, and they’re playing after Game 3, resulted in those away favorites going 14-0 SU&ATS since 2014.

10-21-23 | Wisconsin v. Illinois +3 | 25-21 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 4 m | Show | |
Wisconsin @ Illinois 3:30 PM ET Game# 365-366 Play On: Illinois +3.0 Wisconsin is coming off a 15-6 home loss to Iowa that dropped their season record to 4-2 (.667). Adding insult to injury was the Wisconsin starting quarterback Tanner Mordecai leaving the game with a broken hand and is out for Saturday’s game. Illinois is coming off a momentum building 27-24 win at Marland and did so as a sizable 13.0-point underdog. Any home pick or underdog of 2.5 or less, versus an opponent win percentage of .600 to .800 that’s coming off a SU loss, resulted in those home teams going 10-0 SU&ATS since 2019. The average margin of victory during those 10 contests came to an average of 7.8 points per game. Give me Illinois plus points. | |||||||
10-21-23 | Minnesota +4 v. Iowa | 12-10 | Win | 100 | 20 h 3 m | Show | |
Minnesota @ Iowa 3:30 PM ET Game# 369-370 Play On: Minnesota +4.0 This qualifies as the fishiest line of the week. When that occurs, I almost always go against what seemingly is the obvious choice. Iowa is coming off a 15-6 upset win at Wisconsin. However, the Hawkeyes offense struggled once again while racking up just 237 yards of total offense of which 82 of those came on a 2nd quarter touchdown run. So basically, taking away that long jaunt the Hawkeyes amassed a mere 155 yards on 61 offensive plays with comes to a pathetic average of 2.5 yards gained per play. Minnesota is just 3-3 yet are just a 3.5-point underdog against the #24 ranked Iowa Hawkeyes who are 6-1. It must be noted that 2 of the Golden Gophers 3 losses came at the hands of #2 Michigan (7-0) and #10 North Carolina (6-0). If it loos too good to be true in sports betting more times than not it is. This is one of those times. Give me Minnesota plus points. | |||||||

Penn State @ Ohio State 12:00 PM ET Game# 325-326 Play On: Ohio State -4.5 Both teams will enter this contest with identical 6-0 records. Public sports bettors have overwhelmingly sided with the underdog Penn State Nittany Lions thus far. Yet, the line has jumped from 4.0 to 5.0 which surely indicates a sharp money move. Ohio State has won the last 6 times they faced Penn State while winning by an average of 8.0 points per game. Any college football home favorite of 7.0 or less that has a win percentage of .833 or better that’s playing before Game 9 like Ohio State, and they’re coming off a win by 9 points or more, versus an opponent like Penn State with a win percentage of .800 or better, resulted in those home favorites going 15-0 SU&ATS since 2019. The average victory margin came by 11.7 points per game. Give me Ohio State minus points. | |||||||

The Phillies bullpen has a magnificent 1.63 ERA during postseason play. The Phillies have generated most of their run production in the playoffs via the long ball while belting 17 home runs in 9 games. However, the Diamondbacks will be attacking the Phillies tonight with a bullpen by committee approach. Arizona relief pitchers have allowed 0 home runs in 29.0 innings pitched during postseason play. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||

Astros (Verlander) @ Rangers (Montgomery) 5:07 PM ET Game# 911-912 Play On: Under 9.0 Justin Verlander has established himself as one of the best starting pitchers in postseason baseball over the past 2 decades. There’s no reason to think that will change tonight. Verlander has been in excellent form over his last 4 starts with a 1.05 ERA/0.93 WHIP. During his last 4 road starts Verlander recorded a sparkling 0.72 ERA. Verlander has made 2 starts versus Texas this season with a 1.98 ERA/0.95 WHIP in 13 2/3 innings pitched. The Astros bullpen has a terrific staff 1.47 ERA/0.69 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Jordan Montgomery has been magnificent for Texas down the stretch. During his last 7 starts the Texas lefty has a brilliant 1.22 ERA. During his 2 starts versus Houston this season Montgomery had a superb 0.69 ERA. The Rangers bullpen had a tough day yesterday, but they’ve been very good during a majority of postseason action. Give me this game to go under the total. | |||||||

Jaguars @ Saints 8:15 PM ET Game# 311-312 Play On: Jaguars +2.0 Much of the storyline for NFL bettors leading up to this game hinges on the availability of Jacksonville starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence who is listed as questionable with a knee injury. However, you cans do a lot worse than C.J. Beathard as your backup quarterback. Beathard proved in his time in San Francisco that he can temporarily step in and give his team a chance to win. During his last season with the 49ers in 2020, he appeared in 6 games and tossed 6 touchdown passes versus 0 interceptions. The Jaguars enter this contest riding a 3-game win streak. Jacksonville is 3-0 SU&ATS this season in neutral site and road games with a 10.3 point per game differential. Jacksonville is also a noteworthy +7 this season in the turnover differential category. They’ll be facing a Saints team that began the season 2-0 and has lost 3 of 4 since. The Saints rely heavily on their stellar defense because their offense has left much to be desired. Since 2021, the Saints are an uninspiring 7-10 SU and 5-12 ATS at home. Any NFL away team like Jacksonville with a point-spread of +2.5 to -3.0 and has a win percentage of .500 or better, versus an opponent like New Orleans who played their previous 2 games on the road, and that opponent is playing in Games 5 through 9, resulted in the away teams going 14-0 SU&ATS since 2019. The average margin of victory in those contests came by a substantial margin of 14.3 points per game. Give me the Jaguars plus points. | |||||||

Despite that result, they still can ill afford to lose tonight and fall behind 3-1 with another game to be played in Texas on Friday. The good news for Astros backers is their team is a terrific 54-30 on the road this season. That includes 7-1 in games played in Arlington. They’ll be facing Rangers lefty starter Andrew Heaney tonight. During his last 2 starts versus Houston this season Heaney recorded a lofty 5.58 ERA/1.65 WHIP. Give me the Astros on the money line. | |||||||

Phillies (Suarez) @ Diamondbacks (Pfadt) 5:07 PM ET Game# 905-906 Play On: Under 9.0 The first 2 games of this NLCS have gone over the total. However, it was more the result of the Phillies home run hitting prowess against Arizona starting pitching and each total closing at 7.5 than anything else. Arizona had a combined 3 runs scored and 8 hits through the first 2 games. Philadelphia pitcher Ranger Suarez made 1 start at Arizona this season and tossed 7.0 innings of scoreless baseball.

During his only start at Texas this year, Javier allowed 8 earned runs in just 4 1/3 innings pitched. Max Scherzer has proven to be a tremendous postseason pitcher throughout his career. However, this will be his first start in over a month after being sidelined with an injury. Additionally, Scherzer’s lone start versus Houston this season came at home on 9/6 and he allowed 7 earned runs in only 3.0 innings pitched while also surrendering 3 homers. Texas has averaged 5.6 runs per game while going 7-0 in postseason action. The Rangers are also 6.0 runs scored per game at home in 2023 while smacking 146 homers in 82 games.

Cowboys @ Chargers 8:15 PM ET Game# 277-278 Play On: Cowboys -122 The Cowboys (3-2) are coming off a humiliating 42-10 loss at San Francisco in their previous game. However, this has been a resilient team with Mike McCarthy as their head coach. Dallas has gone 8-0 SU&ATS in their last 8 following a loss and won by a decisive margin of 18.9 points per game. Additionally, recent NFL betting history highly favors Dallas in this exact betting situation. NFL money line away favorites coming off a loss by 12 points in which they allowed 40 points or greater and they possess a winning record, resulted in those away money line favorites going 19-2 (90.5%) since 2004. Furthermore, if they were facing an opponent like the Chargers who had a win percentage of .363 or better, they improved to 8-0 and with a victory marge of 10.8 points per game.

Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Astros (Valdez) 4:37 PM ET Game# 965-966 Play On: Rangers +110 Houston is a very good 53-30 during away games this season. However, at home they’ve gone an inexplicable 40-44 which includes 3-9 in their last 12. The Astros slated starter Framber Valdez has exhibited poor form over his last 3 starts with a 9.22 ERA/1.97 WHIP. During his lone postseason start which came at home versus Minnesota, Valdez allowed 5 earned runs in just 4 1/3 innings pitched. Nathan Eovaldi is an extremely underrated postseason pitcher. He has a career 12-2 postseason team start record in which opponents averaged a mere 2.9 runs scored per game. This postseason has been no different, Eovaldi has made 2 starts this October with a fabulous 1.32 ERA/0.81 WHIP in 13 2/3 innings pitched. During 9 day game starts this season, Eovaldi has an outstanding 2.92 ERA/1.11 WHIP. The Texas bullpen has been very good during this postseason with a staff 1.86 ERA/1.04 WHIP.
