Clemson -2.5 I like Clemson here, and it’s in a revenge spot for them from last year. lost against Syracuse. Syracuse has won two in a row. They beat two teams that they were the underdog in. I think their winning streak will be over today.. Clemson has played a tough-scheduled raked #26 and Syracuse only had raked 81schedule. Clemson is five and one when playing in Syracuse. but Clemson is only three and three against the spread in Syracuse. Clemson is only laying 2 1/2 points And I like them in the spot.

Utah Utes -4.5
Utes defense playing awesome ranking fourth at -0.14 EPA per play
Utes have one of the most balanced offenses in the nation averaging over 485 yards per game
Utes are currently eighth in rushing offense and 12th in scoring offense
Utes are at home and revenge is a factor for last season’s 24-21 loss

Minnesota +4 looks nice. A Cali team traveling to the midwest, and Minnesota has beaten both Iowa and Michigan at home in slop fest, low scoring games. The total in this game is only 38. Also nearly beat IU last week.

Minnesota +3.5. It seems like this team plays well every big game which results in them covering if not winning the game outright. No doubt ucla has been fantastic this year, but this is the type of environment that I could see them struggling especially since they are due for a let down game. I see this as a FG game one that Minnesota can definitely win outright.

2-1 (+0.90 units)

CFB - Texas -2.5 -115
Texas looked like crap earlier in the season, but maybe with the pressure of being #1 long in the rear-view mirror they can relax and play football. They've been solid last few games and that should carry over here.

Minnesota +4

Love MINNY plus the 4 and probably to win outright UCLA has covered three
Straight and hasn’t really been tested they have had a really soft schedule
so far.Take the home dog here

South Carolina -6.5
Beamer ball is rolling. This is a revenge game from last year
Scar was up 30-3 at half last year and lost.
Scar can control the LOS on both sides.
AM offense 72nd running the ball and 55th in defending it
Scar 13th in rushing off and 33rd defending it.
Better run game, better D, better QB
Take the gamecocks

Under 49.5 BYU/Utah Two dominating defenses and should rely on the running game and slow the clock.

Love U Conn here getting 7 (down from opening 8.5) N Car just lost a heart breaker to NO. 1 Miami at home .Now must travel to Ucon were the average 35 points a game at home tough spot here for NC.

Rutgers under 45.5 Rock is a horrible team yeah they have had good times where they scored and they’ve won but overall they’re not a good team. They will struggle to score and they will get beat from beginning to end. Take the under.

Missouri +2.5
I like Missouri playing at home and RB J. Roberts has 1,005 rushing yards and 9TD for Missouri. Also QB A. Simmons has 1,952 passing yards and 16 TD . I take the points

Tenn Moneyline -190

Rocky Top will be ricking for this black out game.
UK now reading its own press clippings being in Top 10
Doesn't make this any easier of a trip

ROCKY TOP ALL NIGHT

TAKE UNDER BYU; 48
( byu last 3 games have gone over)
(Utah last 4 of 5 have gone over)

TAKE UNDER NORTH TEXAS 65
(rice last 2 have gone over)
(north texas last 6 have gone over)

TAKE TENNESSEE -5
(THIS is a play against Kentucky, they've covered last 6 games

TAKE UNDER COL. STATE 69
(Boise last 3 of 4 over
CS last 7 of 8 over)

Minnesota +3’. West coast team coming east. And Minnesota is playing good ball now

Oklahoma +5.5. I have picked Oklahoma on this page unsuccessfully a few times this season. The ineffectiveness of their offense this year has been unexplainable. They won 10 games last year and their QB one was the Heisman favorite entering this season. They have fired their offensive coordinator and put someone new in the role. There is no reason for me to believe that Florida is almost a touchdown better than this team.

Drew Mestemaker o300 passing yds -114…the presumed No.1 QB to be taken in the NFL draft has been rolling..he has hit this mark 7 consecutive games…no reason to believe he can’t hit it today….

Maryland/Purdue over 57(-110 FanDuel) terps average 27 ppg and give up 31ppg to opposing teams. Purdue average 29ppg and give up 32ppg. line is Purdue -5.5 , odds makers expecting a close game. meaning the game will be close and no blowout. and if both teams play to their average stats .... which the total points should be in the low 60's. Purdue is 6-2 to the OVER, Maryland is also a good 6-2 towards the OVER. I will not play this under.... OVER is the only play to bet.

Boston college +5.5, Better defence at home plus the points looking to bounce back after getting slaughtered last week by Duke 47-2

UCLA Minnesota under 38. West coast team in a bad spot early kickoff against a team with a great defense super slow tempo and who also likes to run the ball. Long drives end in punts or FG

Bama +7 -125

Bama has not played well, losing 2 of the last 3 games, but under DeBoer, Bama is 3-0 as an underdog. Bama has won 12 of the last 14 games between these two and they are 6-1 SU and 5-2 ATS last 7 visits to LSU. I will take the 7 points on the visiting team. Good luck

Minn +123 (NHL)


When I first looked at this game I thought TB was the play but the more I looked Minn is the play I know Minn is playing back to back with their back up goalie but they are stellar at home besides Vasilevsky is just 500 vs Minn but the key thing here is that TB is 1-12 their last 13 trips to Minn I think both these teams are fairly even overall but home ice prevails in this one take Minn

NHL:

Detroit/Colorado Over 6.5

Over is 4-0 in Avalanche last 4 vs. Eastern Conference.
Over is 3-0-1 in Red Wings last 4 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600.
Over is 9-1 in Avalanche last 10 games playing on 1 days’ rest.
Over is 8-1 in Avalanche last 9 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game.
Over is 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings in Colorado.
Over is 5-1-1 in Red Wings last 7 vs. a team with a winning record.

North Carolina at UConn | North Carolina -7

UConn allows 249.1 passing yards per game
UConn’s pass defense ranks 116th nationally

Texas vs Missouri
Arch Manning has struggled several times this year. Texas has lost several key players for this game. Missouri A defense that has produced 19 sacks and seven interceptions will put heat on Manning.
Take Missouri +3

Michigan - 13.5

This is their season!

Enough said!

FSU - 6
I foresee it being fundamental time for the Seminoles. A coaching change often brings renewed focus and urgency,
and with an interin staff looking to stabilize things. FSU should come into this game highly motivated.

Ohio St -8

Oregon has been a hot mess express. Riola will have a big game (for The Buckeyes). Notorious for not getting the job done in big games (as a starter). Expect an INT and at least 1 lost fumble from him. He might not even finish the game without getting pulled.

Buckeyes roll

Utah -4

Utah is 7-3 straight up and 6-4 ATS against BYU the last 10 games played against each other. Utah is also 7-1 ATS this year.

Pick: Notre Dame -7 vs. Miami 

Why it Wins: Miami is dealing with a major offensive setback after star receiver Malachi Toney injured his ankle in practice this week—a key missing piece accounting for nearly 40% of their passing yardage. While Notre Dame's defense has bumps, their physical front and elite run-game control at home in South Bend will force Miami into clear passing downs without their primary playmaker. Notre Dame controls the tempo and pulls away late to cover.

Overall Record: 8-11

Pick: Houston Rockets -6.5 at Phoenix Suns 

Why it Wins: Houston has been one of the most consistent teams against the spread early on (7-2 ATS), backed by a stingy defense holding opponents to 107.6 points per game. Phoenix is struggling defensively (allowing over 121 points per game) and enters shorthanded down low. Expect Houston's perimeter depth and rebounding dominance to dictate the action and cover on the road.

Overall Record: 8-11

Pick: Minnesota vs. UCLA UNDER 38.5

Why it Wins: Classic low-possession Big Ten battle. Minnesota under P.J. Fleck ranks among the slowest in the nation in pace of play, relying heavily on clock control, defense, and special teams. UCLA faces a long cross-country travel spot for an early kickoff in Minneapolis. Expect long drives, plenty of punting, and a tight 20-14 style defensive grind.

Overall Record: 8-11

Tennessee-5.5- D line and home field will make Vols roll

Pick: Carolina Hurricanes Moneyline vs. Chicago Blackhawks

Why it Wins: Carolina continues to dominate at 5v5 shot generation and expected goals percentage (xGF%), creating high-danger chances at a top-3 rate in the league. Chicago struggles defensively on the road against high-volume puck-possession teams. Back the Hurricanes' relentless forecheck to handle business on home ice.

Overall Record: 8-11

Portland Trailblazers +6

Some revenge in play after last seasons playoff finish vs San Antonio so look to Portland and a healthy Dame Lillard to win this game tonight in Portland.

UNC -7.5

I like this play based on Sos. UNC schedule has been much harder than UCONN. Theyv e hung in games with Miami , ND, and Clemson. UCONN plays none in that caliber: UNC In a blow out

Pick: Golden State Warriors Moneyline vs. Orlando Magic 

Why it Wins: Golden State comes into tonight hot on a 6-game win streak, averaging 117.8 points per game with elite motion offense at home. Orlando remains compromised without Paolo Banchero (ankle) and has struggled to match high-powered perimeter teams during their recent road swing. Golden State's rest advantage and ball movement lock up a comfortable home win.

Overall Record: 8-11

Belmont Daily Double R8 and R9

R8: #9 Sea Strike (M/L 2): Horse was 3rd choice in the travers and did not run his best there (most likely did not want to go that long). cutting back in distance and could easily still improve on his speed figures which is already best in this field. The Favorite in this race is the 2 YO Champion Ted Noffey, I will try to beat a horse coming in over a year layoff and already had a set back as they were looking to bring him back in a spot sooner than this one.

R9: #7 Bodacious Bay (M/L 5/2): This horse has the most class in this race and has the best speed figures in this field. this horse has three races on a wet track and was first 1 time and second 2 times.

WAS (ML) (-138) Both these teams have not lived up to expectations. WAS seems to have found something with back to back road wins. I will take their home field advantage to just win the game between two average teams.

Warriors -7.5 -105...The Warriors are tearing it up covering 7 games in a row while the Magic has only won 2 of their 8 games so far

Liberty. 6-2:ats defense only gives up 13 ppg

Kentucky/Tennessee over. Kentucky throws multiple offensive sets at you and both score around 33 ppg. The multiple sets will decrease Tennessee defense advantage.

Fla/miami tease. Both will probably cover outright and miami had wr out...not the rest of offense. Take #1 +13 and fla pk at home against inferior Oklahoma team.

Michigan State +14 (-110)
Throwaway season, prime time, against your I state rival. This game will be a pulse check of the Spartans!

Texas St/Oregon St OVER 71

Texas St is a well balanced team. They average about 250 yards each in the pass and run. That means the Beavers can't load up on the run. QB Brad Jackson is pretty good throwing 18 TDs to 5 INTs and almost 2k yards. If they have to run Torrance Burgess is a tough runner who should eclipse 1,000 yards after tonight. When Oregon St has the ball QB Braden Atkinson is on fire. Almost 3,000 yards and 25 TDs to only 2 picks. Oregon St. averages 40 points a game and Texas St 38. When teams that know the other teams can score they'll both want to show up the other team. I think this flies over despite the high number.

CFB Miami +7.5
Two good teams going at it. Should be a close
one. When you can get the number one team
and points I’m going to take it
