North Carolina +17 v. NC State | Top | 21-33 |
Win | 100 | 136 h 36 m | Show |
10* UNC +17 The Tar Heels have struggled with injuries this year but backup QB Nathan Elliott has played in wins at Pittsburgh and home vs. Western Carolina. They did lose to Miami at home before that but it was only by 7. UNC has won the past two visits to Raleigh. NCSU is just 1-3 in their last 4 games and already qualified for a bowl game. UNC has Brown and Carter to run it and Austin Proehl is healthy to catch passes. UNC may lose but I think they stay within 14. |
11-25-17 |
Old Dominion +12.5 v. Middle Tennessee State | Top | 10-41 |
Loss | -110 | 121 h 10 m | Show |
ODU at MTSU 3pm Saturday 10* (#191) ODU +12 Both teams are 5-6 and hoping to win to get to 6-6 and be eligible for a bowl game. MTSU is at home and there last two at home have seen less that 13,000 fans. They are 2-3 in their last 5 games. They do have a solid junior QB in Brent Stockstill. ODU has won 3 in a row and the two losses before that were by just 7 and 4 points. The Monarchs are 9-3-1 ats in the past 13 November games, 5-2 ats in the last 7 road games and 9-1-2 ats last 12 on field turf. ODU's QB Steve Williams has played better lately and is surrounded by upperclassmen at skill positions. Senior RB Ray Lawry has 110, 168, 98, 19 and 166 yards in the past five games. Harper has returned three kicks for touchdowns. Middle Tennessee may end up winning by 7 to 10 points so take the points in what seems to be a close game to see who goes bowling. |
11-18-17 |
Connecticut v. Boston College UNDER 51 | Top | 16-39 |
Loss | -110 | 7 h 37 m | Show |
10* under 51 The game is at night and the weather is expected to be cold with some wind and rain. BC QB is out so they will use a backup. BC has 3 overs and 7 unders this year and the last 3 meetings ended in the 30's. UConn's defense does concern me but I think it ends with 50 points or less. |
11-18-17 |
Virginia +19.5 v. Miami-FL | Top | 28-44 |
Win | 100 | 84 h 46 m | Show |
10* UVA +19.5 Miami is off a big win against Notre Dame and has jumped up in the polls. I expect a letdown against Virginia. UVA did win at Boise State earlier. They just faced Ga Tech and Louisville so they will be prepared a a strong running game. UVA's QB Kirk Bentkirk has backdoor potential. I like Miami to win but Virginia to stay within 18 points in this early 12 noon start on Saturday. |
11-12-17 |
Giants v. 49ers UNDER 42 | Top | 21-31 |
Loss | -105 | 16 h 60 m | Show |
10* under 42 I think we see a game with 36 to 40 points on Sunday so take the under. |
11-11-17 |
Notre Dame v. Miami-FL UNDER 59.5 | Top | 8-41 |
Win | 100 | 22 h 6 m | Show |
10* under 59.5 I like the under here. Miami did play a high scoring game with Toledo but others have been under 59 points. Notre Dame is off a high scoring game at home with Wake Forest but goes on the road to face a decent defense that will be fired up. The Irish are better at running it that throwing it. |
11-11-17 |
Old Dominion +10 v. Florida International | Top | 37-30 |
Win | 100 | 143 h 18 m | Show |
10* ODU +10 ODU is off a 6-0 win after several close losses. They are 3-6 and need wins to get to 6-6 for a bowl consideration. FIU has a nice record but they have been close. ODU has a solid running game with Cox and Lawry. FIU wins but ODU stays within 7. |
11-05-17 |
Chiefs v. Cowboys UNDER 54 | Top | 17-28 |
Win | 100 | 29 h 15 m | Show |
10* under 54 These two teams like to run the ball which can use up clock. Both kicked plenty of field goals in recent games which help an under. I think we see a game in the 45 to 51 range on Sunday so take the under! |
11-04-17 |
Georgia Tech v. Virginia +10.5 | Top | 36-40 |
Win | 100 | 54 h 39 m | Show |
10* Virginia +10.5 Most have UVA +10. They are 5-3 and off two bad losses but trying to get one more win to be bowl eligible. Bronco Mendenhall has done well in the past in late season games. QB Kirk Benkirk has shown he can be a solid QB. Ga Tech is 6-0-1 ats but is off a two TD loss to Clemson. UVA led time of possession last year 37 minutes to 23 and is used to Paul Johnson's schemes. It hurt that UVA had 3 turnovers to 0 for Ga Tech. Virginia may not win but I see them within 10 at home on Saturday. |
11-03-17 |
Marshall v. Florida Atlantic -9.5 | Top | 25-30 |
Loss | -115 | 114 h 59 m | Show |
10* FAU -9.5 FAU has been red hot lately. Marshall has played better but they have to go on the road and face the solid running and passing game of the Owls. I like FAU by 14. |
11-02-17 |
Navy -8 v. Temple | Top | 26-34 |
Loss | -110 | 30 h 41 m | Show |
10* Navy -8 I like Navy to bounce back from their loss to Temple last year and get revenge. Navy is near the top in running the ball while the Owls have struggled to stop the run. Navy wins by 10 or more. |
10-29-17 |
Texans +7 v. Seahawks | Top | 38-41 |
Win | 100 | 26 h 4 m | Show |
10* Houston +7 Take Houston +7 with Deshawn Watson running the show for the underdogs. Seattle should win but the Texans should feed off the energy of the Astros in the World Series. I think we see a close game on Sunday so take the points. |
10-28-17 |
Penn State +7 v. Ohio State | Top | 38-39 |
Win | 100 | 65 h 54 m | Show |
10* PSU +7 I think we see Penn State stay within 7 at Ohio State as they should be motivated after the Buckeyes were taken in the playoff last year. Barkley should play well. Ohio State did lose at home to Oklahmoa. |
10-27-17 |
Florida State -3 v. Boston College | Top | 3-35 |
Loss | -130 | 45 h 24 m | Show |
10* FSU -3 I think FSU finds a way to win at BC on Friday night even with all the injuries. They should be motivated by recent wins by the Eagles. |
10-23-17 |
Redskins +4.5 v. Eagles | Top | 24-34 |
Loss | -105 | 23 h 45 m | Show |
10* Washington +4.5 I like the visitors staying within 4 on Monday night. I am concerned about injuries to players like Josh Norman but I think Jay Gruden and company have a plan to keep it close. |
10-22-17 |
Panthers v. Bears OVER 40.5 | Top | 3-17 |
Loss | -115 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
10* over 40.5 Carolina has been off for 10 days and led by Cam Newton. The Bears have QB sensation Mitchell Trubisky who should provide a few scores. Take the over. |
10-21-17 |
Central Florida v. Navy +7.5 | Top | 31-21 |
Loss | -110 | 68 h 9 m | Show |
10* Navy +7.5 Navy is off a loss and has proven to be tough as a home underdog. CFU has been a tough team so far this year but Navy is off 5 turnovers and should bounce back and stay within 7. |
10-21-17 |
Oklahoma State v. Texas +7 | Top | 13-10 |
Win | 100 | 11 h 20 m | Show |
10* Texas +7 Texas is at home and has played well since their opening loss to Maryland. Coach Tom Hermann moved over from Houston. OK State is a solid team and will probably win but I like the Longhorns to cover. |
10-20-17 |
Western Kentucky v. Old Dominion OVER 48 | Top | 35-31 |
Win | 100 | 8 h 45 m | Show |
10* over 48 The weather should be nice in Norfolk for this game on Friday. Ray Lawry may play some for ODU. These two have produced some high scores in the past. ODU does have a young team especially at QB but I think we see a game with 50 points tonight. |
10-19-17 |
Chiefs -3 v. Raiders | Top | 30-31 |
Loss | -110 | 26 h 22 m | Show |
10* KC -3 I expect the Chiefs to bounce back after a home loss to their nemesis (Steelers). Oakland has struggled with injuries. KC wins by 7 as they were able to win at New England in their opener. |
10-15-17 |
Giants v. Broncos -11.5 | Top | 23-10 |
Loss | -100 | 20 h 19 m | Show |
10* Denver -11.5 It is a big number but I think that NY has too many injuries to stay within 12 points at Denver. The Giants will need a great game from Eli Manning. |
10-15-17 |
Steelers +4.5 v. Chiefs | Top | 19-13 |
Win | 100 | 16 h 20 m | Show |
10* Pittsburgh +4.5 I like the Steelers to bounce back from a poor defeat and stay with 4 at KC. Big Ben has a really bad game in their loss to Jax and has enough experience and success vs. the Chiefs. |
10-14-17 |
Navy +3.5 v. Memphis | Top | 27-30 |
Win | 100 | 88 h 23 m | Show |
10* Navy +3.5 I like the Navy getting +3.5 on Saturday. There should be plenty of points scored in this game led by the running attack of the Midshipmen. |
10-08-17 |
Seahawks +108 v. Rams | Top | 16-10 |
Win | 108 | 53 h 8 m | Show |
10* Seattle +108 The LA Rams have been playing well but now face division rival Seattle. The Seahawks have a solid defense led by Richard Sherman and company. They are well coached by Pete Carroll and have all-pro QB Russell Wilson. LA has a young QB who may make some mistakes on Sunday leading to a win by the visitors. |
10-07-17 |
Michigan State +10.5 v. Michigan | Top | 14-10 |
Win | 100 | 33 h 33 m | Show |
10* Michigan State +10.5 The Spartans are 9-0 ATS in the last 9 meetings. Coach Dantonio is a solid coach on defense. They face a good Jim Harbaugh coached Michigan team that has struggled a little at quarterback. I think Michigan ends up winning but the underdog will be motivated playing the top 10 Wolverines. Take the points. |
10-05-17 |
Patriots -5 v. Bucs | Top | 19-14 |
Push | 0 | 22 h 55 m | Show |
10* NE -5 The Patriots lost last week at home but still scored 30 points. I expect Tampa Bay's QB to make a mistake late in the game and lead to a NE score and the Patriots winning by 7 to 10 points on Thursday night. |
10-02-17 |
Redskins +7.5 v. Chiefs | Top | 20-29 |
Loss | -115 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
10* Washington +7.5 I like the Skins to stay within a TD. There are some 7 and 7.5 out there so look for the best number. Washington should have some confidence after their win at home vs. the Raiders. KC has been impressive but the 7 point spread is huge in the NFL. |
10-01-17 |
Raiders v. Broncos -3 | Top | 10-16 |
Win | 100 | 18 h 2 m | Show |
10* Denver -3 Both are off road losses in the east. I think Denver has a better defense and that will be the difference. Broncos win by 7. |
09-30-17 |
Navy -6 v. Tulsa | Top | 31-21 |
Win | 100 | 78 h 21 m | Show |
10* Navy -6 Tulsa is allowing over 8 yards per play on defense. Navy has a great running game. This should be a high scoring game that I think is won by Navy by 10 points. Navy 41 Tulsa 31 |
09-30-17 |
South Florida v. East Carolina +26 | Top | 61-31 |
Loss | -110 | 139 h 48 m | Show |
10* ECU +26 ECU should have some confidence after winning at UConn on Sunday. Thomas Sirk used to play QB at Duke and left for ECU. He was 30-39 with 3 TD's and 0 int's in the previous win. USF is a solid team but QB Quentin Flowers is around 53% passingbut their running game has been solid. ECU only lost by 16 at South Florida last year. I think USF wins by 20 to 24 so take ECU plus the points, which opened at 26. |
09-28-17 |
Texas v. Iowa State +6.5 | Top | 17-7 |
Loss | -115 | 26 h 52 m | Show |
10* Iowa State +6.5 Iowa State is a solid team at home. They have a decent QB and running game and lost to Iowa earlier in OT and scored 38 points in regulation. Texas lost at USC in OT. They are coached by former Houston coach Tom Herrmann. Texas won at home last year but lost badly at ISU two years ago. I think there is nice value on the home underdog. Most books have this +6 but there are some +6.5's. Thanks and good luck..... |
09-24-17 |
Bengals v. Packers UNDER 46.5 | Top | 24-27 |
Loss | -110 | 26 h 19 m | Show |
10* under 46.5 Cincy has struggled to score and Green Bay has some injuries to the offensive line. I think this game ends in the low 40'sand stays under. |
09-23-17 |
Florida -1.5 v. Kentucky | Top | 28-27 |
Loss | -125 | 23 h 35 m | Show |
10* Florida -1.5 (-125) Florida is 30-0 straight up against Ky and 20-10 ats. The Florida defense should be able to slow down the running game of the Wildcats. I think Florida wins by 7. |
09-23-17 |
Old Dominion v. Virginia Tech OVER 55.5 | Top | 0-38 |
Loss | -110 | 112 h 54 m | Show |
10* over 55.5 VT put up 60+ at ECU. UNC was able to put up over 50 at ODU and only scored 14 in the second half. I think we see 60+ points scored on Saturday. ODU's back up QB Steve Williams is athletic as he can run and pass and make plays. Take the over. |
09-18-17 |
Lions v. Giants -3 | Top | 24-10 |
Loss | -110 | 29 h 23 m | Show |
10* NYG -3 The Giants played POORLY last week at Dallas. They can't expect to make the playoffs if they go 0-2. Eli Manning should be able to play better at home even if Beckham isn't able to play but the G-men should get the running game going. Giants win by 7 to 10 points. |
09-17-17 |
Bears +7.5 v. Bucs | Top | 7-29 |
Loss | -140 | 27 h 29 m | Show |
10* Chicago +7.5 This is +7.5 at -140 but +7 (-110) is available as well. TB has been off due to the hurricane. Chicago played well and had a dropped pass that cost them a possible win last week. I think Tampa Bay wins but the Bears stay close and cover on Sunday. |
09-16-17 |
North Carolina -7.5 v. Old Dominion | Top | 53-23 |
Win | 100 | 140 h 33 m | Show |
10* UNC -7.5 ODU is 2-0 but has played Albany and UMass. They now step up to face UNC at home but the Tar Heels should have motivation after losing by double digits at home to Cal and Louisville. ODU has a new QB (LaRussa, Hoy) but does have a solid running game. UNC did beat ODU 80-20 in their last meeting so the Monarchs will be motivated by the loss but I think we see the ACC team (Tar Heels) win by 14. |
09-16-17 |
Air Force +23.5 v. Michigan | Top | 13-29 |
Win | 100 | 36 h 6 m | Show |
10* Air Force +23.5 Air Force has a nice running attack and their experienced QB can throw it as well. Michigan does have a solid defense and is well coached but I think we see the discipline Falcon team stay within 21 on Saturday. |
09-10-17 |
Giants +4.5 v. Cowboys | Top | 3-19 |
Loss | -115 | 21 h 0 m | Show |
10* NYG +4.5 Most places have this at +4.5. Dallas' Ezekiel Elliott is scheduled to play on appeal but his suspension has to be on his mind. The Cowboys struggled against NY in the past. Eli Manning has solid receivers and an improved defense. I won't be shocked to see the Cowboys win but think it ends in a field goal. Take the points. Thanks and good luck.... |
09-10-17 |
Jaguars v. Texans -5 | Top | 29-7 |
Loss | -105 | 14 h 35 m | Show |
10* Houston -5 Houston has been a solid home team and as a favorite under coach O'Brien. Jax still has trouble at QB and faces one of the top defenses in the NFL. Houston will play hard for the fans who have had to deal with the hurricane Harvey in the past few weeks. Houston wins by 10. |
09-09-17 |
Old Dominion -3.5 v. UMass | Top | 17-7 |
Win | 100 | 53 h 49 m | Show |
10* ODU -3.5 ODU is well coached and off an easy home win in the rain. They may be looking ahead to UNC the following week but they have a solid running game, led by Ray Lawry. Coach Bobby Wilder is a former QB and should help progress the signal caller Blake LaRussa. UMass is home and is off a win vs. a weak team. I like ODU by 10. |
09-02-17 |
Louisville v. Purdue +24.5 | Top | 35-28 |
Win | 100 | 78 h 48 m | Show |
10* Purdue +24.5 Louisville started HOT last year but struggled badly to end the season. Their QB won the Heisman Trophy and returns but Purdue should be prepared for the Cardinal attack. They are coached by Louisville native Jeff Broehm and others with ties to their opponent, which should be motivating. I think Purdue stays within 23. |
09-02-17 |
South Carolina +6 v. NC State | Top | 35-28 |
Win | 100 | 304 h 1 m | Show |
10* South Carolina +6 This game is played in Charlotte on a neutral field. South Carolina and defeated UNC and East Carolina (with Shane Carden at QB) at this location. The Gamecocks play in a better conference and should stay within 6 points. Take USC +6. |
02-05-17 |
Patriots -3 v. Falcons | Top | 34-28 |
Win | 100 | 307 h 27 m | Show |
10* NE -3 I like the experience of New England. They have the better defense and the team with the best defense vs. best offense has seen the defense go 4-1 in the last 5. Look at Seattle over Denver and Denver over Carolina last year. I think NE wins by 7 to 10. |
01-29-17 |
AFC Pro Bowl v. NFC Pro Bowl OVER 75 | Top | 20-13 |
Loss | -120 | 53 h 20 m | Show |
NFC vs. AFC 8pm Saturday 10* over 74.5 The last 3 years were coached by former players (Rice, Irvin, etc.) and the scores were down due to players taking some pride in the game. Last year was 49-27 (76) but the two games before that had just 60 and 43 points. Games before that which were AFC vs. NFL totaled 97, 100 and 96. The rules favor the offenses. Worth a shot to play the over. |
01-22-17 |
Packers v. Falcons UNDER 61.5 | Top | 21-44 |
Loss | -115 | 111 h 29 m | Show |
10* under 61.5 The total ranges from 60 to 61.5 as I write this earlier in the week. These two played a game in the mid-60's earlier this year. All it takes is for one team to struggle to score and we see a 30-24 game that stays under. |
01-15-17 |
Steelers +1.5 v. Chiefs | Top | 18-16 |
Win | 100 | 30 h 25 m | Show |
10* Pittsburgh +1.5 This should be a good game. KC went into Pittsburgh and was blown out early in the year. Andy Reid, coach of KC has been great off a bye but the Chiefs have won mostly by creating turnovers. They face one of the hottest teams in the NFL as QB Big Ben, RB La'Veon Bell and WR Antonio Brown have been playing well. KC's QB Alex Smith is not flashy but seems to get the job done. I think the Steelers end up winning but take the +1.5. |
01-14-17 |
Seahawks +4.5 v. Falcons | Top | 20-36 |
Loss | -101 | 112 h 54 m | Show |
Seattle at Atlanta 10* Seattle +4.5 These two played earlier and it was a 2 point win. Atlanta was off last week and can rest while Seattle had an easy win vs. Detroit. Seattle has played in two recent Super Bowls (a win and a loss) and has experience with coach Pete Carroll and QB Russell Wilson as well as a great defense. Earl Thomas is out but I think there will be a lot of pressure on QB Matt Ryan and the Falcons. I think we see a close game so take the +4.5. |
01-09-17 |
Clemson +7 v. Alabama | Top | 35-31 |
Win | 100 | 78 h 50 m | Show |
10* Clemson +7 (-130) Clemson has a junior QB who played in the title game last year in which the Tigers lost 45-40. Bama has a freshman QB who is solid but is young. Lane Kiffin has moved on and up to Steve Sarkasian to call plays on offense. The underdog is 13-1 ATS in the last 14 bowls. I think Alabama wins but Clemson covers on Monday. |
01-08-17 |
Giants v. Packers -4.5 | Top | 13-38 |
Win | 100 | 113 h 58 m | Show |
NY at Green Bay 10* Green Bay -4.5 Green Bay is on a roll. NY goes from playing at Washington to playing at Green Bay. The Packers are led by future Hall Of Fame QB Aaron Rodgers who has helped them bypass a two game lead by Detroit. Jordy Nelson has been solid catching the ball and Ty Montgomery has been great on the ground. NY does have Eli Manning and the gltizy split end Odell Beckham Jr. and a decent defense. I think Green Bay wins by 7. |
01-01-17 |
Jaguars v. Colts -4 | Top | 20-24 |
Push | 0 | 23 h 49 m | Show |
10* Colts -4 Indy is off a bad loss at Oakland and stands 7-8 with a chance to go 8-8 and be .500. I think QB Andrew Luck plays well and they win by 7. |
12-31-16 |
Washington +14 v. Alabama | Top | 7-24 |
Loss | -110 | 47 h 41 m | Show |
10* Washington +14 Alabama is tough and gets to play close to home but Washington is well coached by Chris Peterson. I think Bama wins by 7 to 10 but think Washington stays close. |
12-30-16 |
Florida State +7.5 v. Michigan | Top | 33-32 |
Win | 100 | 28 h 55 m | Show |
FSU +7.5 Take FSU getting +7.5 points on Friday. Michigan is a nice team led by Jim Harbaugh but their QB is not very athletic. I expect FSU to be motivated after losing badly to Houston last year in their bowl. |
12-29-16 |
Arkansas +7.5 v. Virginia Tech | Top | 24-35 |
Loss | -135 | 41 h 30 m | Show |
10* Arkansas +7.5 I like Arkansas +7.5 against Va Tech. The Hokies are a solid team but Arkansas played in the tough SEC and has a nice running game. |
12-27-16 |
Baylor +8.5 v. Boise State | Top | 31-12 |
Win | 100 | 82 h 50 m | Show |
Baylor vs.Boise State 10* Baylor +8.5 The Baylor Bears have had some problems to deal with, including the firing of coach Art Briles. They were able to put up some huge offensive numbers this year in the Big 12 which is much better than BSU's conference. Baylor was able to beat UNC last year in their bowl by using a wide receiver at QB and set a record for rushing yards in a bowl. I expect them to be motivated and put up nice numbers and stay within a TD vs. a Boise State team that did lose a few games after a hot start. |
12-26-16 |
Lions +6.5 v. Cowboys | Top | 21-42 |
Loss | -110 | 21 h 9 m | Show |
10* Detroit +6.5 Dallas has wrapped up the division. Detroit has a solid QB in Matthew Stafford, who is from Texas and he will try to win in Dallas but all we need is for the Lions to stay within 6 points. Surely, Dallas will not want to risk injury as we saw what happened to Oakland's Derek Carr. |
12-25-16 |
Ravens v. Steelers -5.5 | Top | 27-31 |
Loss | -110 | 42 h 51 m | Show |
10* Pittsburgh -5.5 Baltimore has beaten three times in a row. Pittsburgh has a solid running game and passing attack under Big Ben. I think the home team can play well and win by 7 or more. |
12-24-16 |
Colts +3.5 v. Raiders | Top | 25-33 |
Loss | -110 | 32 h 59 m | Show |
10* Colts +3.5 Indy is +4 at some books. They are down a game in the AFC South and led by QB Andrew Luck, who returns to the Bay area where he played in college. Oakland won their division and may relax as QB Derek Carr wasn't 100% lately. Indy has played well on the road and their defense and running game played well lately. Take the points. |
12-23-16 |
Eastern Michigan v. Old Dominion -3.5 | Top | 20-24 |
Win | 100 | 279 h 53 m | Show |
10* ODU -3.5 These two meet in the Bahamas Bowl. They have played before and know each other. ODU seemed to be in control even with a bad defense but now the Monarchs have improved on that side of the ball. The ODU offense is led by QB David Washington, running backs Ray Lawry and Jeremy Cox and solid receivers like Zack Pascal. Bobby Wilder is a good coach who is 66-30 at ODU. It does concern me that Wilder is being courted by Temple and may be a distraction. I think ODU wins by 7 to 10 points. |
12-20-16 |
Memphis v. Western Kentucky OVER 80 | Top | 31-51 |
Win | 100 | 18 h 22 m | Show |
10* over 80 Sometimes a break before a bowl can slow a team down or one team fails to score their share of a high total but I think we see both teams approach 40 and get the over. |
12-19-16 |
Panthers +7 v. Redskins | Top | 26-15 |
Win | 100 | 24 h 53 m | Show |
10* Carolina +7 Washington is a tough team but Carolina should show some pride and stay within 7. Cam Newton can run and pass and should be motivated after a down year in which they will miss the playoffs afer being favorites in the Super Bowl last year. |
12-18-16 |
49ers v. Falcons OVER 51.5 | Top | 13-41 |
Win | 100 | 4 h 40 m | Show |
10* over 51.5 I like the over as the 49ers can score as well as allow points. Matt Ryan, the Falcon QB is in the top 5 for MVP and should score close to30 today. Take the over. |

Houston -4.5 v. San Diego State | Top | 10-34 |
Loss | -105 | 16 h 12 m | Show |
10* Houston -4.5 Houston is great vs. the run and should contain the SD State star runner. Houston beat Louisville and Oklahoma this year but did lose their coach but Applewhite has been with the team for awhile. QB Greg Ward can run and pass. I like the Cougars by 7 or more. |
12-11-16 |
Redskins -2 v. Eagles | Top | 27-22 |
Win | 100 | 61 h 47 m | Show |
10* Washington -2 L like the Redskins on the road as Carson Wentz has dropped in effenciency after a fast 3-0 start. Washington played well last week but lost at AZ. I expect Cousins to lead the way. Washington wins by 3 or more. |
12-10-16 |
Army v. Navy UNDER 47 | Top | 21-17 |
Win | 100 | 94 h 1 m | Show |
Army vs. Navy 10* under 47 The last 10 meetings have gone under. Both teams know each other well and Navy has several key injuries (QB Will Worth). The last four meetings have reached 38, 27, 41 and 30 points. |
12-04-16 |
Bucs v. Chargers OVER 48 | Top | 28-21 |
Win | 100 | 18 h 2 m | Show |
10* over 48 The 8 meetings between the two have all gone over. SD QB Phillip Rivers and Jameis Winston are both solid and the Charger defense allows to many points. Take the over. |
12-03-16 |
Virginia Tech +10.5 v. Clemson | Top | 35-42 |
Win | 100 | 92 h 36 m | Show |
10* Va Tech +10.5 This game is played on a neutral field. Clemson's latest games have been at home. They lost to an average Pitt team and barely won at FSU. The Tigers went into OT to beat NC State. Va Tech has improved under Coach Fuente as QB Jontel Evans can run and pass. Receivers like Bucky Hodges are solid veterans. I like the Hokies getting +10.5 points on Saturday night. |
11-27-16 |
Giants -7 v. Browns | Top | 27-13 |
Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
10* NYG -7 The Browns are winless while the NYG are trying to keep up with Dallas in the NFC East. NY is led by QB Eli Manning on offense and Jason Pierre Paul on defense. I think we see the Giants win by 10 to 14 points. NYG 27-14. |
11-26-16 |
South Carolina +24 v. Clemson | Top | 7-56 |
Loss | -106 | 31 h 33 m | Show |
South Carolina at Clemson 10* USC +24 This game ended 37-33 last year. The Gamecocks play in the best league (SEC) and have a decent defense under coach Will Muschamp. Their offense has run and passed the ball better in recent weeks. I think Clemson wins by 14 to 21 points so take +24. |
11-26-16 |
Virginia +18.5 v. Virginia Tech | Top | 10-52 |
Loss | -110 | 138 h 12 m | Show |
10* Virginia +18.5 Va Tech is off a nice comeback on the road at Notre Dame and faces their state rival on Saturday afternoon. Here are the last 4 meetings: 23-20 24-20 (at VT) 16-6 17-14 (at VT) All four have been close but won by Virginia Tech. Both have new coaches. UVA is off a 14 point loss at Georgie Tech but led 10-7 at half. Their other road games were a 7 point loss at Wake Forest, a 14 point win at Duke and a 13-10 loss at UConn. UVA is using Matt Johns at QB after Kurt Benkirk struggled lately. The running game is led by Mizzell (827 yards and 5 TD's) while Albert Reid has 480 yards and 6 TD's. Virginia Tech should win but I like the Cavaliers chances to stay within 17. |
11-25-16 |
NC State +12 v. North Carolina | Top | 28-21 |
Win | 100 | 49 h 26 m | Show |
10* NC State +12 NCSU is aiming for a bowl with a win. NCSU has a decent defense and running game and should be able to stay close in the state rivalry as Raleigh is just 30 minutes from Chapel Hill, NC. UNC does have a great offense but I like the Wolfpack to cover. |
11-20-16 |
Packers v. Redskins -3 | Top | 24-42 |
Win | 100 | 7 h 56 m | Show |
10* Washington -3 I like the home team in this Sunday night matchup. QB Kirk Cousins has been solid and the Redskins defense is led by defensive Josh Norman. Aaron Rodgers is still a great player but seems to make mistakes. Washington wins by 7. |
11-20-16 |
Titans v. Colts -2.5 | Top | 17-24 |
Win | 100 | 40 h 24 m | Show |
10* Indy -2.5 I like the Colts -2.5 at home as they have done well in recent years vs. the AFC South members like Tennessee. Marcus Marriota has been solid recently but I expect to see Andrew Luck put it together and all we need is for the home team to win by a field goal. |
11-19-16 |
Old Dominion -8 v. Florida Atlantic | Top | 42-24 |
Win | 100 | 21 h 30 m | Show |
10* ODU -8 I like ODU to win by 10 to 14 points as RB's Lawry and Jeremy Cox are solid runners with combined 14 touchdowns and QB David Washington has 21 TD's to go with 3 int's. FAU kept ODU out of a bowl last year. ODU wins by 33-21. |
11-19-16 |
Navy -7 v. East Carolina | Top | 66-31 |
Win | 100 | 102 h 48 m | Show |
Navy at ECU 4pm Saturday 10* Navy -7 This line is -7 or -7.5. Navy has played well vs. ECU and the Pirates are 3-7 and off some bad losses. They lost at home to SMU 55-31 and at Tulsa by 45-24. Other losses include 31-19 to Cincy, 38-22 to USF and home loss by 18 to Central Florida. Navy has won the last two meetings 56-28 and 45-21 and even scored 76 against the Pirates about 6 years ago. ECU may be able to put up points but how can they stop the efficient rushing attack of Navy, which has added some passes that added to their arsenal. |
11-13-16 |
Chiefs v. Panthers -3 | Top | 20-17 |
Loss | -114 | 13 h 40 m | Show |
10* Carolina -3 I like the Carolina defense to step up at home and for Cam Newton to play well and for the Panthers to win by 7 to 10 points vs. a solid KC team. |
11-12-16 |
LSU v. Arkansas +7 | Top | 38-10 |
Loss | -114 | 33 h 40 m | Show |
LSU at Arkansas 7pm 10* (#170) Arkansas +7 LSU is off a home loss to Alabama 10-0. This is their first road game since September 24, where they lost at Auburn. Arkansas won at LSU 31-14 last year. The Razorbacks are off a home win over Florida as they held the Gators to just 12 yards on the ground. Take the +7. |
11-12-16 |
Southern Miss v. Old Dominion -2.5 | Top | 35-51 |
Win | 100 | 5 h 24 m | Show |
So Miss at ODU 3:30pm 10* (#176) ODU -2.5 I like ODU at home as they are 5-1 in the last 6 and only lost to Western Ky on the road. So Miss has recent losses to UTSA by 55-32 and Charlotte 38-27. QB David Washington can run and pass while ODU has two solid runners in Jeremy Cox and Ray Lawry. |
11-10-16 |
North Carolina -10.5 v. Duke | Top | 27-28 |
Loss | -106 | 27 h 38 m | Show |
10* UNC The Tar Heels won by 24 last year. Duke has a decent team and has some close losses but they may struggle to score. QB Mitch Trubiski is solid. UNC wins by 14. |
11-09-16 |
Bowling Green v. Akron UNDER 72 | Top | 38-28 |
Win | 100 | 20 h 53 m | Show |
10* under 72 I think we see a game in the 60's on Wednesday night. |
11-08-16 |
Western Michigan -20.5 v. Kent State | Top | 37-21 |
Loss | -106 | 27 h 10 m | Show |
College Football (MAC) Western Michigan at Kent 7:30pm Tuesday 10* WMU -20 Western Michigan is 9-0 and ranked in the top 20. They have won their last two road games 41-0 and 52-20. They are led by QB Terrell and WR Corey Davis. They have scored 49, 49, 45, 41, 45 and 52 in recent games. Kent is at home and is 3-6. Will they be able to slow down the visitors and score enough to stay within 3 TD's? I think WMU wins by 21 or more on Tuesday night. |
11-07-16 |
Bills v. Seahawks -7 | Top | 25-31 |
Loss | -100 | 22 h 4 m | Show |
10* Seattle -7 Play Seattle off a tie at 6-6 vs. Arizona as well as a loss at New Orleans. Buffalo just lost at Miami and must travel cross country to Seattle, where the Seahawks can be tough. I think the home team wins by 10 to 12. |
11-06-16 |
Jets +4 v. Dolphins | Top | 23-27 |
Push | 0 | 63 h 6 m | Show |
10* Jets +4 The Jets have some injuries but usually play the Dolphins well in Miami. I think the Jets can win but take the points on Sunday. |
11-05-16 |
Syracuse +27 v. Clemson | Top | 0-54 |
Loss | -115 | 40 h 33 m | Show |
10* Syracuse +27 Clemson is off a comeback win at FSU and could be drained. It could take awhile to get started vs. the Orange, who lost by just 10 last year. |
11-05-16 |
Louisville v. Boston College +25 | Top | 52-7 |
Loss | -106 | 119 h 29 m | Show |
***THIS RELEASE IS A CORRECTION FOR AN EARLIER RELEASE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THIS GAME - THE WRITE UP IN THE PRIOR RELEASE CLEARLY STATES THE CORRECT PICK. THIS WAS A CLERICAL ERROR AND WE SINCERELY APOLOGIZE FOR THE MISTAKE!*** Boston College may have some value as a home dog. BC is off a road win at NC State in which they tried some trick plays. They play Louisville in an early 12 noon game and the Cards are off a late win at Virginia. BC played a 17-14 game at Louisville last year. Boston College at Louisville 12 noon 10* BC +25 |
10-30-16 |
Eagles v. Cowboys -5 | Top | 23-29 |
Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show |
10* Dallas -5 Dallas off a bye. Philly with a young QB. Dallas wins by 7+. |
10-30-16 |
Patriots -5.5 v. Bills | Top | 41-25 |
Win | 100 | 37 h 32 m | Show |
10* NE -5.5 I like New England with Tom Brady to bounce back after getting shut out by the Bills in the first meeting, a game that Brady missed. |
10-29-16 |
Old Dominion -5 v. UTEP | Top | 31-21 |
Win | 100 | 20 h 36 m | Show |
10* ODU -5 ODU has proven that they can beat the average teams in their conference and should bounce back from a bad road loss at Western Ky last week. Coach Bobby Wilder should get the team going, led by QB David Washington and runners Jeremy Cox and Ray Lawry. Also, Zach Pascal should play well. I think ODU wins by 10. |
10-29-16 |
Louisville v. Virginia +28 | Top | 32-25 |
Win | 100 | 135 h 2 m | Show |
10* UVA +28 I think UVA plays better after a home loss to UNC 35-14. Louisville beat UVA by just 7 at home when they met the last time. UVA QB Bentkert struggled vs, the Tar Heels but I expect him to play better when Louisville goes on the road. |
10-29-16 |
Connecticut +7 v. East Carolina | Top | 3-41 |
Loss | -115 | 71 h 53 m | Show |
10* UConn +7 UConn won last year between these two. UConn has a solid defense and QB Bryant Sherriffs has experience. ECU's new coach Scottie Montgomery has a young team that has struggled on defense. I think we see a close game. |
10-24-16 |
Texans v. Broncos -7.5 | Top | 9-27 |
Win | 100 | 23 h 30 m | Show |
10* Denver -7.5 The home team is 7.5 at some places but -9 at a few books. I look for Denver to play well after a loss in their last game and facing Houston and former QB Brock Osweiler. Denver wins by 10 or more with their solid defense. |
10-23-16 |
Vikings -2.5 v. Eagles | Top | 10-21 |
Loss | -115 | 117 h 48 m | Show |
10* Minnesota -2.5 Sam Bradford returns to Philly to face the Eagles. Minnesota is undefeated and off a bye. Philly has committed 237 yards of penalties in the past two weeks and just lost at Washington. Rookie Carson Wentz started hot but has made some mistakes and hurt by offensive line injuries. I think Minnesota wins by 7 to 10 points. |
10-22-16 |
Old Dominion +13.5 v. Western Kentucky | Top | 24-59 |
Loss | -100 | 43 h 36 m | Show |
ODU at Western Ky 7pm Sat. 10* ODU +13.5 The rotation # is 385/386. I like ODU +13.5 as they are off a bye and have two solid runners in Jeremy Cox and Ray Lawry. QB David Washington can run and pass and WR Zach Pascal has plenty of experience. ODU coach Bobby Wilder has had time to work on some trick plays and I think ODU stays within 10 to 12 points. |
10-21-16 |
Oregon v. California UNDER 89 | Top | 49-52 |
Loss | -111 | 22 h 22 m | Show |
10* under 89 89 points is one of the highest college totals I have seen. All it takes is for one team to score 32 and we get an under. It could be 52-35 and we still have an under. |
10-16-16 |
Chiefs -1 v. Raiders | Top | 26-10 |
Win | 100 | 29 h 23 m | Show |
10* Kansas City -1 This line did move from KC +1 to -1. The Chiefs look to bounce back after a bad road loss at Pittsburgh. KC had a bye last week and should get going with the short passes of Alex Smith and the running of Jamaal Charles. Andy Reid has shown to be a solid coach and Oakland has one of the worst defenses in the NFL and has struggled at home in recent years. |
10-16-16 |
Eagles v. Redskins OVER 44.5 | Top | 20-27 |
Win | 100 | 26 h 13 m | Show |
10* over 44.5 I think both teams score in the 20's and we get to 48 to 51 points on Sunday. I like the over which is at 44.5 to 45 points at most sportsbooks. |
10-15-16 |
North Carolina +9 v. Miami (Fla) | Top | 20-13 |
Win | 100 | 88 h 11 m | Show |
10* UNC +9 Both are off losses. UNC played in the rain at home vs. Va Tech and struggled vs. their defense but scored 50+ last year vs. Miami. Miami is off a close loss to Florida State and Brad Kaaya should bounce back. UNC's QB Mitch Trubiski should find Ryan Switzer this week on a dry field. Take Larry Fedora's team on Saturday. |
10-15-16 |
Pittsburgh v. Virginia +4.5 | Top | 45-31 |
Loss | -112 | 14 h 31 m | Show |
10* UVA +4.5 Take UVA at home in this early start. They have played well after a slow start with new coach Bronco Mendenhall and QB Kirk Bentkirk has been solid. |
10-09-16 |
Chargers +3.5 v. Raiders | Top | 31-34 |
Win | 100 | 30 h 5 m | Show |
10* San Diego +3.5 SD is 1-3 but should be 2-2 or even 3-1 as Philip Rivers has played well except at the end. Oakland is 3-1 but has struggled at home in recent years and has had to travel east to play. QB Carr and WR Amari Cooper are solid players. The Raider defense has allowed their share of points. |
10-08-16 |
Vanderbilt v. Kentucky UNDER 51.5 | Top | 13-20 |
Win | 100 | 24 h 18 m | Show |
10* under 51.5 I think we see a game in the 40's on Saturday. |
