Home Forums Sports Picks Central Bet The House 1/2 Bet The House

Georgia Bulldogs +1
Head coach and staff leans heavily towards the Bulldogs
Fighting Irish rank 101st in the nation in passing offense
Bulldogs eighth in opponent EPA per rush which should expose ND QB Riley Leonard as a passer
Fighting Irish enter this game ranked 90th in the country in rush defense success rate
Notre Dame defense is no better than Texas defense and Bulldogs beat them twice
Fighting Irish without linemen Jordan Botelho, Boubacar Traore, and Rylie Mills and cornerback Benjamin Morrison

Ole Miss -17. They have everyone playing and Duke doesn’t

Calgary Flames ML (+102) - Utah is on a 5 game losing streak and playing a road game. Calgary has won 3 out of their last 4 games. I will take the home team at plus money.

ND-1 Stockton may be a good QB, but lack of game experience going against one of the best defenses in nation is a big ask

OLE MISS -17

Ole Miss is just the more talented team here, better offense better defense and better special teams and coaching. They should cover this 17 pts with no problems.

NBA Minnesota +4.5
Celtics have won 8 of last 10 meetings
However the last few games have been
very close so I’m taking home team and points

CBB

Penn St -4 (-115) 2 units

Both teams with similar records but Penn St has better key wins beating Purdue by double digits. They are 8-0 at home and NW still looking for their first road win. NW also lost to Butler at home. I think Penn St rolls here.

Georgia +1 Bulldogs Rushing attack too much for the Irish. Game will be close but Coach Smart’s experience prevails

Nd -1
Think they are better on both side of the ball and get the win today

GA Under 46.

georgia doesn’t give up points vs average offenses. ND strength is their defense and Ga backup QB will ne held in.

LOW!!!

This is my take for today............

Everyone remembers Notre Dame running over Indiana in their last game. They went 35 runs for 193 yards. Everyone remembers that. However let's take just one play out of that stat line. It becomes 34 rushes for 95 yards or about 2.8 yards per rush attempt. I removed the 1 play that was a run for 98 yards and a TD.

Who's defense is better? IN or GA?
What about strength of schedule? IN, ND, GA?
Let's talk coaching? No need to.

While one team was praying for the victims in the tragedy yesterday another was talking about the game. Who appears to be more focused? Who may have lost some focus?

So let me answer the questions.............

GA has the better defense.
IN had the 65th, ND the 59th, GA the third toughest schedule.
ND was praying for the victims and talking openly about the tragedy and there's nothing wrong about that. They are after all a Catholic school and one of deep faith. They were in their comfort zone. This while GA was talking about getting prepared and the game itself. This is a team that appears at least by words or body language they are more focused right now.

Keep in mind this is a team that has been looked down upon ever since losing the title game last year, they have something to prove. Backup QB or not, this team is looking for redemption.

If you look at power ratings, the right team is favored but that doesn't always tell the story.

I'm going with GA on the ML at -/+100

But I'm looking for something better than -/+100 so I'm going to parlay GA with MS St -760 for a +126 ML Parlay.

If you haven't visited resident college expert Daddy Rabbit's thread in the forum experts area, I recommend you do. He has his top play of the season going today.

Washington Capitals -155

CPAs take on Minnesota to start 2025. Wild are 4-6 in last tens games. After a real hot start at goaltending Wild are giving up over 3 goals during their last 5 games. Caps are 12-4–2 at home this year. Caps are plus 39 in goal differential this year and Wild are plus 9. Take the Capitals.

Georgia Team Total Under 22.5 (+100)

Georgia will run the ball a lot especially since they have a new QB, and ND is really good against the pass.

Warriors -3.5...Sixers playing back to back vs a rested Warriors team who have won and covered the last 3 games against them

CFB

276 Mississippi -17
On my spreadsheet I have a situation that favors Mississippi that is 37-23 this year
Play Mississippi

Record for this new year 1-0 yesterday

CBB FAU +3.5. Memphis has been a team to play up and down to competition depending on their opponent. I like FAU to get the job done at home

CBB
Maryland - 6
Maryland is nationally ranked in the box and after tonight will be ranked within top 25.
Conference play will be even more challenging for Washington in this big 10 play.
Washington not a good free throw team and Maryland will have a game plan to hold off 6ft 8 forward opebor.

nba
Philip +4.5
gl
5 out 5 Phillip will get it cover
