11-25-19 | Thunder -6 v. Warriors | 100-97 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
6* Thunder/Warriors NBA *BAILOUT* on Oklahoma City -6 The Key: The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming off 3 straight tough losses by 2 points to the Clippers, by 5 points to the Lakers and by 3 points to the Lakers. Those are arguably the 2 best teams in the NBA, and they showed they could go toe-to-toe with them. Now the Thunder have their get right game tonight against the Warriors, who are probably the worst team in the NBA. The Warriors are 3-14 this season and losing by 10.6 PPG. The Thunder are on 2 days rest and are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games on 2 days rest. The Warriors are 15-35-1 ATS in their last 51 home games and 5-20-1 ATS in their last 26 home games against a team with a losing road record. Take Oklahoma City. |

11-25-19 | New Mexico +8.5 v. Auburn | 59-84 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 27 m | Show | |
6* New Mexico/Auburn NCAAB *CA$H COW* on New Mexico +8.5 The Key: Auburn lost a ton of talent from last year’s Final Four team. They have managed to go 5-0 this year, but it has come against a soft schedule, and they only beat South Alabama by 1 in their lone road game. This will be their toughest game yet. They’re up against a New Mexico team that returns a ton of talent and also recruited some great talent in the offseason. The Lobos are 5-1 this season with their only loss coming on the road by 3 points to UTEP. They beat New Mexico State on the road, and NMSU is great every year. Take New Mexico. |
|||||||
11-25-19 | Ravens v. Rams OVER 47 | Top | 45-6 | Win | 100 | 6 h 13 m | Show |
7* Ravens/Rams NFL *Total* Annihilator on OVER 47 The Key: I like the OVER quite a bit tonight. The Ravens are scoring 34.1 PPG this season and can take care of most of this OVER on their own. The Rams get both Robert Woods and Brandon Cooks back at receiver this week after both missed last week. The Rams are scary offensively when they have Woods, Cooks, Kupp and Gurley all healthy at the same time. Bets on the OVER on road teams with a total of 42.5 to 49 who are good teams that outscore opponents by 4 PPG or more when allowing 3 points or less in the first half last game are 72-31 over the last 10 years. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Bucs v. Falcons -3.5 | 35-22 | Loss | -100 | 2 h 27 m | Show | |
6* Bucs/Falcons NFC South *CA$H COW* on Atlanta -3.5 The Key: No team has been more impressive than the Falcons in the 2nd half of the season this year. They came out of their bye and promptly upset the Saints 26-9 as 14-point road dogs. They proved it was no fluke by following it up with a 29-3 win at Carolina as 4.5-point dogs. And now they are home only laying 3.5 points against a bad Tampa Bay team that can’t seem to get out of their own way. The Bucs are 1-5 SU & 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games overall. Jameis Winston cannot be trusted to not turn the ball over. The Bucs have committed 19 turnovers in their last 5 games overall, which is absolutely atrocious. Winston will likely continue giving the ball to the Falcons today, an improved Atlanta defense that has allowed just 12 points total the last 2 weeks combined. Take Atlanta. |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Steelers v. Bengals +6.5 | 16-10 | Win | 100 | 2 h 27 m | Show | |
6* Steelers/Bengals AFC North *CA$H COW* on Cincinnati +6.5 The Key: The Steelers are a mash unit offensively right now. I just don’t see them being able to score many points against the Bengals today considering they are without starting C Maurkice Pouncey, RB James Conner and WR JuJu Smith-Schuster. Those are arguably their 3 best players on offense. The Bengals showed some fight last week in Oakland and only lost by 7. They will certainly show some fight against a division rival in the Steelers this week, and there’s no doubt they want to end this losing streak against them. The Steelers only managed 7 points against the Browns last week and committed 4 turnovers. They’ll continue to struggle to move the football and score points this week. Take Cincinnati. |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Dolphins v. Browns -10.5 | Top | 24-41 | Win | 100 | 2 h 27 m | Show |
7* AFC Game of the Month on Cleveland Browns -10.5 The Key: The Browns played the toughest schedule in the entire NFL in the first half of the season. Now the schedule has eased up, and the Browns have taken advantage. After beating a good Bills team 19-16 at home, the Browns crushed the Steelers 21-7 last Thursday. Now the Browns have had extra time to get ready for the Dolphins and are primed for one of their best games of the season. The Dolphins have injuries all over their defense, especially in the secondary. The Browns should take advantage and have one of their best offensive outputs of the year. Cleveland has Kareem Hunt playing now and forming a dynamic 1-2 punch with Nick Chubb. The Dolphins gave up 37 points to a bad Bills offense last week. The Dolphins are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 after having won 2 of their last 3 games coming in. Miami is 1-8 ATS in road games off one or more consecutive ATS losses over the last 3 years. Take Cleveland. |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Heat +4 v. 76ers | 86-113 | Loss | -104 | 9 h 40 m | Show | |
6* NBA Situational *SLAM DUNK* on Miami Heat +4 The Key: The Miami Heat raced out to a 67-43 halftime lead over the Bulls yesterday. This allowed their starters to get some rest on the second half and for the Heat to be more fresh than Philadelphia. The 76ers also played yesterday, but they were in a dog fight with the Spurs in a game that was within single-digits most the way. They had to extend their starters’ minutes, and wound up winning by 11 by pulling away late. The Heat are the deeper, fresher team and are the right side today. The Heat are one of the best teams in the NBA at 11-3 SU & 10-2-2 ATS on the year. Take Miami. |
|||||||
11-23-19 | UCLA +14 v. USC | Top | 35-52 | Loss | -109 | 19 h 16 m | Show |
7* Pac-12 Game of the Month on UCLA +14 The Key: UCLA is playing well in the 2nd half of the season once again this year. The Bruins have gone 3-1 SU & 3-1 ATS in their last 4 games overall with 3 double-digit wins over Stanford, ASU and Colorado. They did lose badly to Utah on the road last week, but that was due to committing 5 turnovers and not cashing in any red zone trips, and they had a bunch of them. They will be able to move the ball much more effectively and score points on this soft USC defense. UCLA has played USC tough the last 2 years, upsetting the Trojans as 3-point home dogs last year and only losing by 5 as nearly identical 14.5-point dogs in 2017. USC is 2-10 ATS off 2 or more consecutive wins over the last 3 years. Take UCLA. |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Texas A&M +13 v. Georgia | 13-19 | Win | 100 | 19 h 14 m | Show | |
6* Texas A&M/Georgia SEC *CA$H COW* on Texas A&M +13 The Key: Georgia feels like it cleared its final hurdle last week with a huge 21-14 win at Auburn that clinched the SEC East. And now I think they won’t be giving Texas A&M the attention they deserve this week. Texas A&M is more than capable of coming into Georgia and giving the Bulldogs a game. The Aggies are the fresher team after having a bye 2 weeks ago. They have been blowing out teams in the 2nd half of the season with a 19-point win over Mississippi State, a 31-point win over UTSA and a 24-point win over South Carolina in their last 3 games coming in. Georgia is coming off that physical game at Auburn and there’s no question the Aggies will be the fresher team. Jimbo Fisher is 6-0 ATS after allowing 75 or fewer rushing yards as the coach of Texas A&M. Fisher is 10-2 ATS against good defensive teams that allow 285 yards per game or fewer in all games as a coach. Georgia is 0-8 ATS in its last 8 home games off 3 or more consecutive ATS wins. Take Texas A&M. |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Florida International -9.5 v. NC-Wilmington | 63-66 | Loss | -111 | 2 h 5 m | Show | |
6* Saturday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Florida International -9.5 The Key: FIU has a common opponent with UNC-Wilmington. That common opponent is Cleveland State. FIU beat Cleveland State 107-61 on the road, while UNC-Wilmington just lost to Cleveland State 46-47 yesterday. That’s a Cleveland State team that replaced all 5 starters and is very bad. FIU handled Cleveland State like they should, and they’ll handle this UNC-Wilmington team as well. Take Florida International. |
|||||||
11-23-19 | BYU v. UMass +40.5 | 56-24 | Win | 100 | 16 h 40 m | Show | |
6* NCAAF Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on UMass +40.5 The Key: BYU clinched a bowl last week with a 42-10 win over Idaho State as 33.5-point favorites. They had a chance to punch it in from the 1-yard line and took a knee. And I think they will show similar mercy to 1-10 UMass this week. This is the final game of the season for UMass, so we should be getting their best effort. They actually played Northwestern a lot tougher than the 6-45 final showed last week. They were only outgained by 100 yards by the Wildcats and managed 310 total yards. Look for BYU to run, run and run some more in the 2nd half to try and get this game over with. It will favor UMass staying within the number. Take UMass. |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Lakers v. Thunder UNDER 211 | 130-127 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 36 m | Show | |
6* Friday NBA *Total* Annihilator on Lakers/Thunder UNDER 211 The Key: This is my favorite spot to bet an UNDER in the NBA. The Lakers and Thunder are playing a home-and-home situation. They just played in Los Angeles on Tuesday with the Lakers winning 112-107 for 219 combined points. The 2nd meeting in these home-and-home situations is almost always more low scoring than the first because teams are familiar with each other and it favors the defenses. The Lakers are 2nd in the NBA in defensive efficiency this year while the Thunder are 12th. The UNDER is 7-1 in the last 8 meetings in Oklahoma City. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Evansville -6 v. East Carolina | 68-85 | Loss | -108 | 6 h 31 m | Show | |
6* Friday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Evansville -6 The Key: Evansville proved it would be a contender in the MVC this year by going into Kentucky and winning outright as a 24.5-point favorite. No surprise they followed it up with an upset home loss to SMU as 2.5-point favorites in a 2-point loss in a clear letdown spot. The Purple Aces will be refocused for this tournament in the Bahamas. Now they take on a 1-3 ECU team that has a 20-point loss to Liberty at home, a 6-point loss at App State and a 5-point loss at Navy. Their only win came against Virginia Military at home by 12. The Pirates are overmatched here. Evansville is 8-1 ATS in road games after scoring 60 points or less over the last 3 years. ECU is 0-6 ATS in road games off 3 consecutive non-conference games over the last 3 years. ECU is 1-9 ATS after having lost 3 of its last 4 games over the last 2 years. ECU is 0-7 ATS in road games against teams who make 8 or more 3-point shots per game over the last 3 years. Take Evansville. |
|||||||
11-22-19 | North Texas v. Rhode Island -6 | Top | 47-60 | Win | 100 | 2 h 16 m | Show |
7* NCAAB Game of the Week on Rhode Island -6 The Key: Rhode Island returned all 5 starters this year and is one of the most improved teams in the country. The Rams are 3-1 this year with their only loss coming at No. 6 Maryland. They beat Alabama 93-79 at home and will handle North Texas. UNT is 2-3 this year with its only wins against Oklahoma Christian and UNC A&T. They lost at home to Eastern Michigan outright as 9-point favorites, were blown out by 23 at Arkansas, and also lost at VCU. UNT is 0-8 ATS against teams who are called for 17 or fewer fouls per game over the last 2 years. UNT is 6-15 ATS against a team with a winning record over the last 2 years. UNT is 1-9 ATS off an ATS win over the last 2 years. Take Rhode Island. |
|||||||
11-21-19 | New Mexico +4 v. New Mexico State | 78-77 | Win | 100 | 9 h 9 m | Show | |
6* Thursday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on New Mexico +4 The Key: Last year was a rebuilding year for head coach Paul Weir and New Mexico. This year he has NBA talent on the roster and the Lobos will be a force in the Mountain West. New Mexico State had a great season last year, but it’s more of a rebuilding season for them now. They have losses to UTEP by 15 and Arizona by 30 already. New Mexico is 4-1 with its only loss coming to UTEP by 3, which gives them a common opponent with New Mexico State. The Lobos only lost by 3 on the road to UTEP, while the Aggies lost by 15 to them on the road. I strongly believe the wrong team is favored in this matchup. Take New Mexico. |
|||||||
11-21-19 | Colts +3.5 v. Texans | Top | 17-20 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show |
7* Colts/Texans AFC South *HEAVY HITTER* on Indianapolis +3.5 The Key: The Colts will win the battle in the trenches on both sides of the football. That’s why I trust them more than the Texans. They have by far the better defense, and by far the better offensive line. The Colts rushed for 264 yards in their 33-13 win over the Jaguars last week. The Texans gave up 263 rushing yards in their 7-41 loss to the Ravens and managed just 232 total yards on offense. Deshaun Watson was sacked 7 times as his offensive line continues to struggle. And not having JJ Watt makes Houston’s defense one of the worst in the NFL. The Colts are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 against winning teams, while the Texans are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 against winning teams. The Colts are 6-0-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings in Houston. Take Indianapolis. |
|||||||
11-21-19 | Blazers v. Bucks UNDER 227.5 | 129-137 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
6* Thursday NBA *Total* Annihilator on Blazers/Bucks UNDER 227.5 The Key: The Blazers and Bucks will both be playing their 3rd game in 4 days today. Neither team will be looking to push the tempo simply because they’ll both be too tired to do so. And with the Blazers not having Damian Lillard, they’re going to have to slow it down and try and make this an ugly, grind it out game if they want any chance to compete with the Bucks. Seven of the last 10 meetings in this series have gone UNDER the total. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Jazz v. Wolves UNDER 222 | Top | 103-95 | Win | 100 | 7 h 51 m | Show |
7* NBA Total of the Week on Jazz/Timberwolves UNDER 222 The Key: This is one of my favorite situations to bet an UNDER. The Jazz and Timberwolves are playing a home-and-home here after the Minnesota beat Utah 112-102 on the road Monday night. That game saw 214 combined points, and now the total is 222 in the rematch in Minnesota. I think it’s too high, and now that these teams are familiar with one another, points will be hard to come by tonight. Utah is 25-8 UNDER off a double-digit loss as a favorite of 6 points or more and 20-5 UNDER off a double-digit loss as a home favorite of 6 points or more. The UNDER is 13-3 in Jazz last 16 games overall, 6-1 in Jazz last 7 road games, and 8-0 in Jazz last 8 games playing on one days rest. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Toledo v. Buffalo OVER 54 | 30-49 | Win | 100 | 6 h 16 m | Show | |
6* Toledo/Buffalo MAC *Total* Annihilator on OVER 54 The Key: The OVER is 4-0 in Toledo’s last 4 games with combined scores of 66, 71, 68 and 59 points. I think this total of 54 has been set too low. The OVER is 3-0 in Buffalo’s last 3 games with combined scores of 63, 57 and 57 points. Buffalo is 8-1 OVER as a home favorite over the last 3 years. The OVER is 4-1 in Rockets last 5 road games. The OVER is 7-0-1 in Bulls last 8 games against a team with a winning record. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Chattanooga +20.5 v. Florida State | 53-89 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 16 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Chattanooga +20.5 The Key: Chattanooga is off to a 3-1 start this year with its only loss at Eastern Kentucky int he opener. Chattanooga has pulled out upset wins in its last 2 games at Troy 74-68 as 3-point dogs and home against South Alabama 90-72 as 3.5-point dogs. They can hang with Florida State on the road tonight. The Seminoles are coming off a lackluster 79-74 home win over Western Carolina as 17.5-point favorites. They were also upset by Pitt in their opener as 4.5-point road favorites. Chattanooga is 8-0 ATS when playing its 2nd game in 8 days over the last 2 years. Take Chattanooga. |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Furman +4.5 v. Alabama | Top | 73-81 | Loss | -111 | 6 h 50 m | Show |
7* NCAAB Game of the Week on Furman +4.5 The Key: Furman is a team in line to make a run at an NCAA Tournament bid. They are neck and neck with East Tennessee State as the top two teams in the Southern Conference. Furman went 25-8 last year and returns 4 starters from that squad, all who averaged anywhere from 8.8 PPG to 16.2 PPG. Furman is 4-0 SU & 3-0 ATS this year with road wins over Gardner Webb as 5-point favorites and Charleston Southern (by 44) as 7-point favorites as well as a blowout home win over Loyola-Chicago (by 24) as 4.5-point favorites. Those results and margin of victory show that this team in for real. Alabama is rebuilding under first-year head coach Nate Oats. The Crimson Tide are 1-2 this season with an upset home loss to Pennsylvania and an upset road loss at Rhode Island by 14. Wrong team favored here as Furman is probably the best team they will have faced yet. Furman is 21-5 ATS in its last 26 against a team with a losing record. Furman is 8-1 ATS in its last 9 road games. Alabama is 1-6 ATS in its last 7 home games. Take Furman. |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Ohio v. Bowling Green OVER 55 | 66-24 | Win | 100 | 5 h 20 m | Show | |
6* Ohio/Bowling Green MAC *Total* Annihilator on OVER 55 The Key: Bowling Green has one of the worst defenses in the country. They give up 34.8 PPG and just gave up 44 points last week to a mediocre Miami Ohio offense. Ohio has a good offense that averages 31.8 PPG in MAC play and will hang a big number on them as well. But I look for Bowling Green’s offense to have much better success against Ohio’s soft defense than they did against Miami Ohio last week. Ohio allows 29.7 PPG and 432.6 YPG on the year. Ohio is 7-0 OVER against awful pass defenses that allow a completion percentage of 62% or higher over the last 3 years. The OVER is 5-1 in Bobcats last 6 games off a loss. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Chiefs v. Chargers OVER 52 | Top | 24-17 | Loss | -110 | 34 h 2 m | Show |
7* Chiefs/Chargers MNF *Total* Annihilator on OVER 52 The Key: The altitude in Mexico City will take its toll on both defenses in the second half of this game. I look for both offenses to score at will after intermission. The Chiefs got Patrick Mahomes back last week and he showed no signs of rust as the Chiefs racked up 530 total yards including 433 passing in their 32-35 loss to the Titans. Clearly the offense was not the problem, but they still have a soft defense that yields 370 YPG. The Chargers have gotten healthier on offense with the returns of Hunter Henry and Melvin Gordon recently. They are more potent now and put up 26 points on the Packers and 24 on the Raiders and probably should have scored more on Oakland but committed 3 turnovers. Both meetings last year went OVER the total with 66 and 57 combined points in them. The Chiefs and Chargers should have no problem combining for 52-plus in their first meeting of 2019. The Chiefs are 6-0 OVER in road games after gaining 400 or more YPG in their last 3 games over the last 3 years. The Chiefs are 8-1 OVER against good passing teams that average 7 YPA or more over the last 2 years. The OVER is 9-1 in Chiefs last 10 games after gaining 350 or more yards in their last game. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Bucks v. Bulls UNDER 230.5 | 115-101 | Win | 100 | 7 h 54 m | Show | |
6* NBA Eastern Conference *CA$H COW* on Bulls/Bucks UNDER 230.5 The Key: This is one of my favorite situations to bet an UNDER. It worked yesterday with the 76ers/Cavs UNDER, and it will work tonight with the Bulls/Bucks UNDER. The Bulls and Bucks will be playing in a rematch from a 124-115 home win by Milwaukee on November 14th less than a week ago. The Bulls made 18 3-pointers in that game, and the Bucks shot 47 free throws. Those are things that are unlikely to happen again, and the rematch will be more lower scoring because these teams are familiar with one another. The UNDER is 26-11-1 in the Bulls last 38 home games against a team with a winning road record. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Cardinals +10 v. 49ers | 26-36 | Push | 0 | 7 h 38 m | Show | |
6* Cardinals/49ers NFC West *CA$H COW* on Arizona +10 The Key: The 49ers are a mash unit right now. They are without George Kittle and Emmanuel Sanders. We saw how they fell apart against Seattle on Monday after Sanders went out with injury. They are without RB Matt Breida, and fellow RB’s Tevin Coleman and Raheem Mostert are both questionable. Not to mention the 49ers have injuries all over their offensive line. I foresee Jimmy G struggling again without all his weapons. The Cardinals sped up their offense in their 25-28 loss to the 49ers a few weeks ago and had success. Look for them to go no huddle earlier in this game and find more success against the 49ers. The Cardinals are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Cardinals are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 road games after yielding 6.0 YPP or more in their previous game. Take Arizona. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | 76ers v. Cavs UNDER 216 | 114-95 | Win | 100 | 4 h 54 m | Show | |
6* Sunday NBA *Total* Annihilator on 76ers/Cavs UNDER 216 The Key: This is one of my favorite situations to bet an UNDER. The 76ers and Cavaliers will be playing in a rematch from Philly’s 98-97 home win on November 12th. Now they are playing again just 5 days later and will be familiar with one another obviously. And that first meeting only saw 195 combined points, so this 216-point total is too high. The UNDER is 4-0 in Cavs last 4 games overall. The UNDER is 18-8 in the last 26 meetings. The UNDER is 15-6 in the last 21 meetings in Cleveland. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Bills v. Dolphins +7 | Top | 37-20 | Loss | -113 | 4 h 34 m | Show |
7* AFC East Game of the Month on Miami Dolphins +7 The Key: The Dolphins outgained the Bills 381 to 305 in their first meeting this season just a few weeks ago. But the Dolphins lost that game 21-31 in a very misleading final. The Dolphins covered the spread in that game and they are now 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall. Now the Dolphins are getting 7 points in the rematch at home and will be out for revenge. The Bills are not as good as their record and have feasted on some bad teams this year. I can’t remember the last time they were laying a touchdown on the road. Nobody seems to want to buy into the Dolphins which is why they have gone 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games. And they’re not buying into them this week either. We’ll go contrarian and back the Dolphins. The Bills are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 road games against a team with a losing home record. Take Miami. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Broncos +10.5 v. Vikings | 23-27 | Win | 100 | 4 h 34 m | Show | |
6* NFL Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Denver Broncos +10.5 The Key: The Denver Broncos are in a good spot today coming off their bye week. The Vikings are in a bad spot coming off a huge win on Sunday Night Football over the Cowboys. They could let down here pretty easily. The Broncos are better than their 3-6 record. Only 2 of their losses have come by double-digits, and one was an 11-point loss. So they have only really been blown out once all season, and that was by the Chiefs. I don’t think Brandon Allen is much of a downgrade at all from Joe Flacco. And I like that he has had 2 weeks to run with the first-team offense and prepare to face Minnesota. But the reason the Broncos can keep this close is their defense. They are 4th in the NFL in total defense and 6th in scoring defense, yielding just 18.9 PPG and 309.7 YPG. They rank 9th in giving up just 4.0 YPC on the ground, so they will be able to slow down Dalvin Cook. The Broncos are 19-6 ATS in their last 25 games off bye week. Take Denver. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Raptors v. Mavs -3.5 | 102-110 | Win | 100 | 10 h 27 m | Show | |
6* NBA Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Dallas Mavericks -3.5 The Key: The Dallas Mavericks are cheap today because they have lost 3 of their last 4 and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. But they played the last 3 on the road, and now they’re back home in a bounce back spot. The Raptors will be playing their 5th straight road game here. They remain without Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka, and I don’t believe they are good enough to beat a hungry Mavericks team on the road tonight without them. The Mavericks are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 against a team with a winning record. The Mavericks are 22-8 ATS in their last 30 against a team that wins more than 60% of their games. The Mavericks are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. Take Dallas. |

11-16-19 | Minnesota +3 v. Iowa | Top | 19-23 | Loss | -104 | 10 h 14 m | Show |
7* Minnesota/Iowa Big Ten *HEAVY HITTER* on Minnesota +3 The Key: The Minnesota Golden Gophers won’t have a letdown off their biggest win perhaps in program history over Penn State. There is a lot more on the line than a win over Penn State. Minnesota is basically assured of a Big Ten West title if they beat Iowa this week. And they have a chance to make the four-team playoff if they go undefeated. So everyone that talks about how the Gophers are going to have a letdown is dead wrong. PJ Fleck went on the playoff show on Tuesday and said they hadn’t won at Kinnick Stadium since 1999, which was Kirk Ferentz’s first season with the Hawkeyes. That’s 20 years. If that’s not enough motivation, I don’t know what is. Of course, Minnesota has a better team this year than they’ve had in the last 20 years, so that stat is pretty irrelevant. The Gophers were never 9-0 going into the Iowa game before. I realize the Gophers struggled in non-conference play to put away teams, but no team in the country has improved as much as them in conference play. Not only are the Gophers winning, they are dominating. They are 6-0 SU & 6-0 ATS in conference play winning by 23.2 PPG. The Penn State game was the only one decided by less than 7 points, and they were up 24-10 in that game before the Nittany Lions expectedly made a little comeback. The Gophers never trailed in that game so it wasn’t a fluke. PJ Fleck is clearly one of the best head coaches in the country with leading Western Michigan to an unbeaten season until the narrow bowl loss to Wisconsin. And now he’s taken Minnesota to 9-0. He knows what buttons to push, and there’s plenty for him to push this week, including the underdog and disrespect cards. Take Minnesota. |

11-16-19 | Wyoming v. Utah State -4.5 | 21-26 | Win | 100 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
6* Mountain West *CA$H COW* Utah State -4.5 The Key: The Utah State Aggies have one of the best quarterbacks in the country. That has helped them mask some other problems they’ve had when it comes to living up to expectations they created for themselves last year. Despite the massive respect they’ve gained from their efforts last season, they’ve still managed to exceed expectations this year. They are 5-4 ATS and coming off a 37-35 road win over Fresno State as 5-point dogs. They racked up 525 yards on a solid Fresno State defense a week after gaining 521 yards on a good BYU defense. That was one of the most misleading finals this season as Utah State lost 14-42 due to 5 turnovers. The only games they really weren’t competitive in came on the road against Air Force and LSU, which is understandable seeing what those 2 teams are doing this year. Wyoming lost a 17-20 heartbreaker at Boise State last week and won’t be recovered in time to face Utah State. And the Cowboys lost their starting QB in Sean Chambers, who was playing great in leading Wyoming to a 6-2 start. Chambers has 567 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns this season, and not having that dual-threat element with backup Tyler Vander Waal the rest of the way makes Wyoming very predictable. Vander Waal was their starting QB last season and they were horrible with him at the helm. Getting future NFL QB Jordan Love of Utah State as only a 4.5-point home favorite in this matchup with Wyoming’s Vander Waal is a steal. Take Utah State. |

11-16-19 | UTEP +17.5 v. UAB | 10-37 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 57 m | Show | |
6* Conference USA *CA$H COW* on UTEP +17.5 The Key: The UAB Blazers played the easiest schedule in the country en route to their 6-1 start this season. Their 6 wins came over Alabama State (by 5), Akron (by 11), South Alabama, Rice, UTSA and ODU. Those games against terrible teams in Alabama State and Akron tell all you need to know about how down UAB is compared to last season when they won Conference USA. And when they finally stepped up in class this year, they have gotten blown out the last 2 weeks by Tennessee (by 23) and Southern Miss (by 35). Now UAB is without stud starting QB Tyler Johnson III, who meant everything to their offense. There’s a reason they only scored 2 points against Southern Miss on a safety without him. UTEP is good enough to stay within 17 points. The Miners covered as 13-point dogs in a 21-28 loss to Charlotte last week to prove they have not quit. UAB’s chances of winning Conference USA are pretty much out the window now that they have have 2 conference losses on the season, so don’t expect them to show up this week. Take UTEP. |

11-15-19 | Kings v. Lakers -10.5 | 97-99 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 26 m | Show | |
6* Kings/Lakers NBA *BAILOUT* on Los Angeles -10.5 The Key: The Lakers are 9-2 SU & 8-3 ATS this season and flexing their muscle in the early going. The trio of Lebron James, Anthony Davis and Kyle Kuzma has been nearly unstoppable. Both Javale McGee and Dwight Howard are playing some of the best basketball of their careers. And role players like Danny Green, Avery Bradley, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope are fitting in nicely. Now the Lakers are expected to get PG Rajon Rondo back from injury to add another dimension. The Kings are in a world of hurt right now injury-wise. They are without De’Aaron Fox and Marvin Bagley III, arguably their two best players. They are also without Trevor Ariza and could be without Dewayne Dedmon. I just don’t see how they can keep up with the Lakers without Fox. The Lakers are 1st in the NBA in defensive efficiency this year. The Kings are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 against a team that wins more than 60% of their games. The Lakers are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 home games. The Lakers are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 against the Western Conference. Take Los Angeles. |

11-15-19 | Fresno State v. San Diego State -1 | Top | 7-17 | Win | 100 | 7 h 21 m | Show |
7* Fresno State/SDSU NCAAF Friday Night Lights on San Diego State -1 The Key: The San Diego State Aztecs are 7-2 this season and 4-2 in conference play. That 4-2 record has them in first place alone in the West Division. They knew they could afford to lose to Nevada last week and that’s exactly what happened. Now the Aztecs have zero margin for error, and they know they need to handle their business tonight at home against Fresno State. This is a Fresno State team that is grossly overrated this season due to their ATS success the past 2 seasons. But they had to replace nearly their entire team this year. This inexperienced squad has gone 4-5 SU & 3-5-1 ATS this year as a result. The Bulldogs are once again getting too much respect from oddsmakers tonight in basically a pick ‘em game at SDSU. Fresno State is 4-14 ATS in its last 18 road games after allowing 525 or more yards last game. The Bulldogs have allowed 500-plus yards in 3 straight games now to Colorado State, Hawaii and Utah State. The Aztecs will have one of their best offensive performances of the season tonight against this soft Fresno defense. And the Aztecs once again have one of the best defenses in the country. They give up just 14.4 PPG and 277 YPG on the season. Fresno allows 32.4 PPG this year. The Aztecs are 20-7-1 ATS in their last 28 against a team with a losing record. Take San Diego State. |

11-15-19 | Georgia State v. Duke -28 | 63-74 | Loss | -109 | 5 h 50 m | Show | |
6* Friday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Duke -28 The Key: It’s hard to believe, but the Duke Blue Devils have actually been lacking respect to start the season because they lost Zion Williamson and R.J. Barrett. But their replacements have more than done the job. The Blue Devils are 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS this year covering the spread by an average of 10.7 PPG. Georgia State will not offer much resistance tonight. It’s a rebuilding Georgia State team with a first-year head coach in Rob Lanier. Duke is 8-0 ATS in home games after allowing 65 points or less in 2 straight games over the last 3 years. Take Duke. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Steelers v. Browns UNDER 42 | Top | 7-21 | Win | 100 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
7* Steelers/Browns NFL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 42 The Key: The UNDER is 6-3 in all Steelers games this season. The Steelers have a terrible offense and a great defense, which is why they have been an UNDER team. The Browns have been terrible offensively as well scoring just 19 PPG on the year. The Steelers are 12-1 UNDER in road games against conference opponents over the last 3 years. The UNDER is 15-3 in Steelers last 18 road games, and 38-15 in their last 53 road games overall. The UNDER is 4-0 in Browns last 4 Thursday games. The UNDER is 17-7-1 in Browns last 25 home games. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Mavs v. Knicks UNDER 215.5 | 103-106 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
6* Mavs/Knicks TNT *CA$H COW* on UNDER 215.5 The Key: The Mavericks and Knicks just played 6 days ago with the Knicks pulling the 106-102 upset in Dallas for 208 combined points. I think we see another defensive struggle in the rematch here tonight. The Knicks are scoring just 99.5 PPG on the season and 94.7 PPG at home, so I don’t think they’ll be able to hold up their end of the bargain offensively. Dallas is 21-11 UNDER when revenging a same season loss over the last 2 years. New York is 13-3 UNDER in home games after going over the total in their previous game over the last 2 years. The UNDER is 34-16-1 in Knicks last 51 games overall. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | North Carolina +4 v. Pittsburgh | 27-34 | Loss | -106 | 7 h 56 m | Show | |
6* UNC/Pitt ACC *CA$H COW* on UNC +4 The Key: The UNC Tar Heels just have a knack for playing in close games. Eight of their 9 games have been decided by 7 points or less with the lone exception being their blowout win over a bad Georgia Tech team. Six of their 9 games have been decided by 4 points or fewer as well, including their one-point loss to Clemson that showed what they are capable of. Pitt has a poor offense that scores 20.9 PPG this year and it won’t allow them to get margin. UNC has a good offense at 27.9 PPG and 446 YPG and will be in this game for four quarters. Pitt is 4-17 ATS in its last 21 off 2 consecutive games where it committed 3 or more turnovers. The Panthers are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games against a team with a losing road record. The Tar Hills are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Take UNC. |

11-13-19 | Bowling Green +17.5 v. Miami-OH | Top | 3-44 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 57 m | Show |
7* Bowling Green/Miami Ohio MAC *HEAVY HITTER* on Bowling Green +17.5 The Key: Bowling Green is still alive for a bowl game and is certainly improved this year. This is their last stand as 17.5-point dogs to Miami Ohio. The Falcons are coming off a 35-6 win over Akron and have had 10 days off since that game. Miami Ohio is only on normal rest after playing and upsetting Ohio 24-21 on the road last Wednesday. It’s definitely a letdown spot for the Redhawks off that huge win that puts them in the driver’s seat to win their division in the MAC. Miami hasn’t beaten Bowling Green by more than 15 points in any of the last 9 meetings, which makes for a 9-0 angle backing the Falcons. The Falcons won 37-29 as 17-point dogs their last trip to Miami in 2017. Take Bowling Green. |
|||||||
11-13-19 | CS Bakersfield v. Northern Iowa -10 | 55-67 | Win | 100 | 7 h 57 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Northern Iowa -10 The Key: Northern Iowa returned 4 starters this year and will be a factor to win the Missouri Valley this year. This is the most talented team Ben Jacobson has had in a while. I believe he’s the best coach in the Missouri Valley. The Panthers are 2-0 SU & 2-0 ATS this year with wins and covers over quality Old Dominion and Northern Illinois teams. Now they face a CS-Bakersfield team that isn’t nearly as good as the two teams they have already played. The Panthers should have no problem winning by double-digits. Bakersfield is picked 6th in the WAC this year. The went 18-16 last year but lost 3 of their top 4 scorers. They only return 2 of their worst starters and 2 reserves. They were upset by South Dakota State at home last time out. Bakersfield is 3-9 ATS in its last 12 games overall. Northern Iowa is 8-3 ATS in its last 11 games overall. The Panthers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games. Take Northern Iowa. |

11-13-19 | Wizards v. Celtics -8 | 133-140 | Loss | -104 | 7 h 32 m | Show | |
6* NBA Eastern Conference *CA$H COW* on Boston Celtics -8 The Key: The Boston Celtics are 8-0 SU & 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall. Oddsmakers just aren’t quite adjusting enough for how improved this team is with Kemba Walker and company. Now they face the Washington Wizards, who are 2-6 on the season with each of their last 3 losses coming by 13 points or more to th eCavaliers, Pacers and Timberwolves. The Wizards are 1-9 ATS in road games off a loss by 10 points or more over the last 2 years. Washington is 1-11 ATS in its last 12 trips to Boston. Take Boston. |

11-12-19 | Lakers v. Suns +2.5 | 123-115 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
6* Lakers/Suns Western Conference *CA$H COW* on Phoenix +2.5 The Key: The chemistry of the Phoenix Suns to start the season has been impressive. The Suns are 6-3 SU & 8-1 ATS to be the best covering team in the NBA thus far. Monty Williams is clearly getting the most out of these players and was a great hire. They are sharing the ball very well and have made at least 11 3-pointers in a franchise-record seven consecutive games. They had a season-high 19 in a 138-112 blowout home win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday. They also had a season-high 37 assists on 52 baskets and a season-low seven turnovers. Now they will take down Lebron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. Anthony Davis has been slowed by a shoulder injury that could sideline him any given night, which would be a huge loss for the Lakers. The home team is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take Phoenix. |
|||||||
11-12-19 | Valparaiso -6 v. SIU-Edwardsville | 89-76 | Win | 100 | 6 h 36 m | Show | |
6* Tuesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Valparaiso -6 The Key: SIU-Edwardsville is 1-1 this season with a lackluster 61-52 home win over Quincy. They lost 60-87 at Iowa, which was just upset at home by DePaul by 15 as a 9.5-point favorite. Valparaiso upset Toledo at home and lost on the road to Saint Louis by 11 as a 9.5-point dog. They have been tested against two good teams, and now they face a cupcake they can beat up on, which is exactly what I expect them to do. Valpo returned its 2 best players from last year in Javon Freeman and Ryan Fazekas. They added in good transfers in Iron Gordon from Seton Hall and Nick Robinson from Saint Joe’s as well as Zion Morgan from UNLV. Morgan teamed with Robinson at Chicago’s Kenwood High School, giving them some chemistry. Daniel Sackey is also a returning starter who is averaging 14.5 points and 6.0 assists through two games. Freeman (19 ppg) and Fazekas (13 ppg) are both off to fantastic starts this year as well. The Crusaders are 8-0 ATS after allowing 80 points or more over the last 3 years. SIU-Edwardsville is 1-8 ATS after scoring 60 points or less over the last 3 years. Take Valparaiso. |

11-12-19 | Western Michigan v. Ohio +1 | Top | 37-34 | Loss | -108 | 4 h 7 m | Show |
7* Western Michigan/Ohio MAC *HEAVY HITTER* on Ohio +1 The Key: Western Michigan has already clinched a bowl game at 6-4 on the season. Ohio is 4-5 on the season and really needs a win here to get to a bowl. Adding to the motivation for the Bobcats is that this is Senior Night and their final home game. Their best player in QB Nathan Rourke is a senior, and he has meant so much to this program that you know these players want to get him one final home win. Western Michigan is 0-4 SU & 0-4 ATS on the road this year. The Broncos should not be favored in this matchup. The Broncos are 1-10 ATS after playing a home game over the last 2 years. Western Michigan is 0-6 ATS in its last 6 road games. The Bobcats are 37-18 ATS in their last 55 against a team with a winning record. Take Ohio. |

7* NBA Total of the Week on Pistons/Pacers UNDER 211 The Key: The Pistons and Pacers square off for a 3rd time already this season. They only combined for 190 points in their last meeting on October 28th. Points will be hard to come by again in this rematch because both teams have the injury bug right now to almost all of their key scorers. The Pistons are without Griffin, Jackson and Rose. The Pacers are without Oladipo and Lamb and Turner is questionable. Indiana is 8-0 UNDER when revenging a loss as a road favorite over the last 3 years. Indiana is 20-4 UNDER at home with a total of 210 to 219.5 over the last 2 years. Take the UNDER. |

11-08-19 | Illinois-Chicago v. Memphis -18 | 46-92 | Win | 100 | 5 h 28 m | Show | |
6* Friday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Memphis -18 The Key: The Memphis Tigers had the top recruiting class in the country this season. Penny Hardaway is doing big things recruiting his former AAU players when he was a head coach for them, which gives him a huge advantage. I look for the Tigers to show out tonight against Illinois-Chicago. Memphis won 97-64 as a 26-point favorite against South Carolina State in their opener to get the cover. Illinois-Chicago nearly was upset by Olivet Nazarene of all teams, only winning 75-72 after getting an and-one with only a few seconds remaining. After that result, there’s no way they can hang with Memphis. Illinois-Chicago is 2-11 ATS in its last 13 games as a road dog of 18.5 to 24 points. Take Memphis. |

11-07-19 | Thunder v. Spurs -4.5 | 112-121 | Win | 100 | 10 h 8 m | Show | |
6* NBA Western Conference *CA$H COW* on San Antonio Spurs -4.5 The Key: I think we are getting the Spurs cheap tonight because they are coming off 2 straight losses, while the Thunder are coming off 2 straight wins. The Spurs will be hungry for a win to avoid a 3-game losing streak. They have been competitive in every game this season and their 3 losses have come to the Clippers, Lakers and Hawks with 2 of those on the road. They are a quality team. The Thunder are still one of the worst teams in the West with all they lost in the offseason. Bets on home favorites who failed to cover 3 of their last 4 ATS against an opponent that covered 4 of their last 5 ATS are 76-38 ATS over the last 5 years. The home team is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings. The Spurs are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 home meetings with the Thunder. Take San Antonio. |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Chargers v. Raiders +1.5 | Top | 24-26 | Win | 100 | 10 h 54 m | Show |
7* Chargers/Raiders AFC West *HEAVY HITTER* on Oakland +1.5 The Key: The Raiders are hitting on all cylinders offensively with the balanced attack of Derek Carr’s precision passing and Josh Jacobs’ tough-nosed running. The Raiders have reached or exceeded 24 points in 5 straight games. The Chargers have scored 20 or fewer points in 6 of their last 8 games overall. Philip Rivers is showing his age, and the Chargers have been a one-dimensional passing team. I like backing home teams on Thursday nights, especially if they played at home the week before since there is no travel, which is the case for the Raiders after beating the Lions 31-24 in Oakland on Sunday. The Raiders know this is their last season in Oakland, and they are showing out for their home fans. The Raiders are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games. Take Oakland. |

11-07-19 | Temple v. South Florida +2 | 17-7 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |
6* Temple/USF AAC *CA$H COW* on South Florida +2 The Key: South Florida is hungry to make a bowl game this year. The Bulls have won 3 of their last 4 by an average of 18 PPG and need this win against Temple to make a bowl as they sit at 4-4 with a tough schedule coming up after. Temple has lost 2 straight by an average of 33 PPG. I’m shocked they are road favorites here. The Owls are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games. The Bulls have been running the ball with authority on teams and will be able to run the ball on Temple tonight, which is going to be the difference in this game. Take South Florida. |

11-06-19 | Miami-OH +7 v. Ohio | 24-21 | Win | 100 | 8 h 40 m | Show | |
6* Miami/Ohio MAC *CA$H COW* on Miami +7 The Key: Miami Ohio has played a much tougher schedule than Ohio. Both teams are 3-1 in conference play, but I believe the Redhawks are the better team and shouldn’t be catching a touchdown. They have 3 common opponents. Miami is 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS against those same 3 teams that Ohio has played. Miami is only giving up 20 PPG and 361.3 YPG against those 3 teams. Ohio is 2-1 SU but 0-3 ATS against those 3 teams. The Bobcats are allowing 32.3 PPG and 454.7 YPG against those teams. It’s easy to side with the team with the much better defense tonight in the Redhawks. The Redhawks are 7-0 ATS off 2 straight conference games over the last 2 years. Take Miami. |

7* NBA Situational *SLAM DUNK* on Washington Wizards +4 The Key: The Indiana Pacers are in a very difficult spot tonight. They will be playing for a second consecutive day and their 3rd game in 4 days. The Pacers also played an overtime game against the Hornets last night. The Wizards had yesterday off and have been competitive in every game by one this year. That’s a big reason why the Wizards are 5-1 ATS and rank 3rd in the NBA in offensive efficiency. The road team has covered 19 of the last 26 meetings in this series. The Wizards are 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Indiana. Take Washington. |

6* Notre Dame/UNC ACC *CA$H COW* on Notre Dame +10 The Key: Notre Dame returns all 5 starters this year and will be one of the most improved teams in the country. UNC returns just one starter and lost a ton of talent to the NBA. The Tar Heels should not be laying double-digits against this veteran Fighting Irish squad that will give them a run for their money tonight. 3 of the last 4 meetings in this series were decided by 7 points or fewer. The Fighting Irish are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take Notre Dame. |

6* St. Mary’s/Wisconsin NCAAB *CA$H COW* on St. Mary’s -5 The Key: The St. Mary’s Gaels are ranked and one of the best teams in the country coming into the season. The Gaels return 4 starters from a team that went 22-12 last year. They have Jordan Ford (21.1 ppg), Tanner Krebs (8.9 ppg), Tommy Kuhse (6.2 ppg) and Malik Fitts (15.2 ppg, 7.6 rpg) back as starters. Wisconsin loses its best player in Ethan Happ (17.3 ppg, 10.1 rpg) and fellow starter Khalil Iverson (6.9 ppg, 4.5 rpg). They do have 3 starters back, but they are sure to take a step back this year. The Badgers are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Wisconsin is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 neutral site games. Take St. Mary’s. |

6* NBA Eastern Conference *CA$H COW* on Charlotte Hornets +3.5 The Key: The Indiana Pacers should not be favored on the road over the Charlotte Hornets tonight. It’s a Pacers team playing without Victor Oladip and Myles Turner. And Domantas Sabonis is banged up with a calf injury and questionable. Both teams are 3-3 but there is a major difference. Charlotte has played the 6th-hardest schedule in the NBA, while the Pacers have played the easiest (30th). The home team has covered 10 of the last 12 meetings and the Hornets are 8-1 ATS in the last 9 home meetings. Take Charlotte. |

7* Kansas/Duke NCAAB *HEAVY HITTER* on Kansas -2 The Key: The Duke Blue Devils lost Zion, Barrett and Redish to the NBA. They won’t be as talented as they were last year, and they certainly won’t be hitting on all cylinders to start the season with so many freshmen. The Kansas Jayhawks are a more veteran team than they normally are. They have 3 starters back, a healthy Udoka Azubuike, and got the great news that Silvio De Sousa will be eligible. The Jayhawks are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings with Duke. Take Kansas. |

7* Cowboys/Giants NFC East *HEAVY HITTER* on New York +7 The Key: The Giants want to avenge their season opening loss to the hated Cowboys on the road. The Cowboys were 7-point home favorites in that game, and now they are 7-point road favorites in the rematch. That’s essentially a 6-point adjustment since the start of the season when you adjust for home-field advantage and I believe it’s too much. The Giants have been a lot more competitive since Daniel Jones took over at quarterback. They only have 2 losses by more than 6 points in Jones’ 6 starts this year and those came against the Vikings and Patriots. And they had a bunch of injuries in those 2 games, but are now as healthy as they have been at any point this season. The Giants will be able to stay within a touchdown of the Cowboys at home tonight and could pull off the upset. After all, the Cowboys lost outright to the Jets as 7-point favorites in their last road game. Take New York. |

11-04-19 | Pelicans +4 v. Nets | 125-135 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
6* NBA Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on New Orleans Pelicans +4 The Key: Two disappointing teams square off Monday when the Pelicans visit the Nets. The Pelicans are just 1-5, but they are better than their record in my opinion. They have been competitive in all 5 losses with their largest margin of defeat being 11 points. And it has been against one of the toughest schedules in the NBA. The Nets have played the 2nd-easiest schedule int he NBA and are just 2-4 with their wins coming over the Knicks by 4 and Rockets by 7. They have lost to the Pacers, Pistons, Grizzlies and Timberwolves. They shouldn’t even be favored in this contest. Brooklyn is 12-32 ATS in its last 44 home games after failing to cover 4 of their last 5 games. The Pelicans are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Monday games. The Nets are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games overall. The underdog is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. The Pelicans are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 trips to Brooklyn. Take New Orleans. |

11-03-19 | Browns -4 v. Broncos | Top | 19-24 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 10 m | Show |
7* AFC Game of the Month on Cleveland Browns -4 The Key: The Browns have played one of the toughest schedules (4th) in the NFL this season. They have a great chance to make up some ground in the AFC North starting with a win Sunday at the lowly Denver Broncos. It’s a Broncos team that is 2-6 on the season and will now be without Joe Flacco for the foreseeable future. They are forced to start Brandon Allen at quarterback. I can’t see that going very well for Allen, especially since the Broncos have one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL, while the Browns have a solid pass rush. Take Cleveland. |

11-03-19 | Bucs +5 v. Seahawks | 34-40 | Loss | -106 | 14 h 50 m | Show | |
6* Bucs/Seahawks NFC *CA$H COW* on Tampa Bay +5 The Key: The Tampa Bay Bucs have played one of the toughest schedules (2nd) in the NFL this year. The Seattle Seahawks have faced a much easier schedule (23rd) . I actually think the Bucs are the better team in this matchup despite the difference in records with the Bucs being 2-5 and the Seahawks being 6-2. The Seahawks are just 2-2 at home this year and their 2 wins came by a single point. They are very close to being 0-4 at home this year. The Seahawks are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 home games. Take Tampa Bay. |

11-03-19 | Titans v. Panthers -3.5 | 20-30 | Win | 100 | 11 h 45 m | Show | |
6* Titans/Panthers Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Carolina -3.5 The Key: We are getting the Panthers cheap Sunday at home because they are coming off a blowout road loss to the 49ers. That’s a 49ers team that is making a lot of teams look bad. Kyle Allen is still 5-1 as a starter in his career and he led the Panthers to 4 straight wins prior to that defeat. Look for the Panthers to bounce back at home today. The Titans come in getting too much respect from the books after winning 2 straight home games against the Chargers and Bucs. They easily could have lost both of those games and were fortunate to win both. Now Ryan Tannehill has to make his first road start of the year. Things won’t be easy for him as the Titans are banged up. They will be without C Ben Jones and TE Delanie Walker. They will also be without arguably their best defender in DT Jurrell Casey. Ron Rivera is 9-2 ATS off a blowout road loss by 14 points or more as the coach of the Panthers. Take Carolina. |

11-02-19 | Hornets +1 v. Warriors | 93-87 | Win | 100 | 13 h 40 m | Show | |
6* NBA Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Charlotte Hornets +1 The Key: The Golden State Warriors may be the worst team in the Western Conference now without Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant. They just don’t even have a chance of being competitive now with their only 2 good players being De’Angelo Russell and Draymond Green. The Warriors would be better off just trading Russell and packing it in at this point. They have no depth and are one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. They are giving up 126 PPG and 52% shooting to opponents this year. They lost 127-110 to the Spurs at home last night. Now they’ll be playing for a second straight day and their 5th game in 7 days. The Charlotte Hornets have had 2 days off coming in having last played on Wednesday. Take Charlotte. |

11-02-19 | Suns v. Grizzlies +2.5 | 114-105 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 11 m | Show | |
6* NBA Western Conference *CA$H COW* on Memphis Grizzlies +2.5 The Key: The Phoenix Suns have opened 3-2 SU & 5-0 ATS this season with their 2 losses coming by exactly one point each. But I have a hard time believing the Suns are that much better than they were last year because they didn’t improve their roster all that much, and they are without De’Andre Ayton. I think because they have covered all 5 games they are now getting too much respect from the books as a road favorite here. They were dogs in 4 of their first 5 games with the only exception being a favorite at home against Sacramento. They shouldn’t be favored on the road at Memphis tonight. This is a young, talented Grizzlies team that will benefit from having 3 days off coming into this game having last played on Tuesday. Take Memphis. |

11-02-19 | Vanderbilt +16 v. South Carolina | 7-24 | Loss | -113 | 29 h 26 m | Show | |
6* SEC Game of the Week on Vanderbilt +16 The Key: The South Carolina Gamecocks upset Georgia 20-17 three weeks ago as 20.5-point dogs. They didn’t deserve to win that game, but since they did they are still getting too much credit for it. They have since gone on to lose and fail to cover against both Florida (27-38) and Tennessee (21-41). Now they’re being asked to lay a ridiculous 16 points to Vanderbilt. This is a Vanderbilt team coming off their bye week following a 21-14 upset win over Missouri as 21.5-point dogs. There was nothing fluky about that win either as they won the box score against the Tigers. The Commodores still feel like they can make a bowl game and they know they need this win here if they are going to make a run at one. The Commodores are 6-0 ATS after having lost 4 or 5 of their last 6 games over the last 2 years. The Gamecocks are 5-13-1 ATS in their last 14 against a team with a losing record. The Commodores are 20-8 ATS in their last 28 November games. Take Vanderbilt. |

11-02-19 | UAB v. Tennessee -12.5 | 7-30 | Win | 100 | 29 h 59 m | Show | |
6* NCAAF Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Tennessee -12.5 The Key: Give Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt credit for not losing his team after a tough 1-4 start. They have gone 2-1 since with their only loss to Alabama on the road in a game in which they played the Crimson Tide a lot tougher than the 13-35 final would indicate. And they’ve pulled off 2 upset home wins over Mississippi State 20-10 as 5-point dogs and South Carolina 41-21 as 4-point dogs. Even their 14-43 loss at Georgia was misleading the previous week because they were only down 15 with 6 minutes to go. The Vols have covered the spread by a combined 51.5 points in their last 3 games so they are grossly underrated right now. Now they are laying less than 2 touchdowns to UAB this week. UAB was great last year, and they are 6-1 this year, but they are nowhere near as good as that record. They have faced the 189th-ranked schedule in the country as there are actually 58 FCS teams that have played a more difficult schedule! Their 6 wins have come against Alabama State, Akron, South Alabama, Rice, UTSA and ODU. Their only loss came against the toughest team they faced in Western Kentucky. And Tennessee is by far the best team that they will have faced now as the Blazers are at a huge talent disadvantage. It’s an inexperienced UAB team that returned only 8 starters from last year’s very good team. UAB is 4-14 ATS in its last 18 games after scoring 31 points or more in 2 straight games. The Blazers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 against SEC teams. Take Tennessee. |

11-02-19 | Miami-FL v. Florida State -3 | Top | 27-10 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 27 m | Show |
7* Miami/Florida State ACC *HEAVY HITTER* on Florida State -3 The Key: Both Miami and Florida State are 4-4 this season and in the midst of disappointing years. However, the biggest difference is that Florida State (32nd) has played the tougher schedule than Miami (63rd). And Florida State looks like a much better team with Alex Hornibrook as their starter. Hornibrook has been a lot better than James Blackman. Hornibrook is completing 68.4% of his passes averaging 8.7 YPA and has 6 touchdowns against only one interception. Miami 17-12 win over Central Michigan at home as 30.5-point favorites showed everything you need to know about this team. They went on to get upset by VA Tech at home as 14-point favorites the next week. They were lucky to beat both Virginia and Pitt as they were outgained in both of those contests. And they were also upset by Georgia Tech as 18.5-point home favorites. This team just isn’t very good, especially offensively as they are playing musical chairs at quarterback. The Seminoles are 24-11 ATS in their last 35 games with a line of +3 to -3. The Hurricanes are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 road games and 6-14 ATS in their last 20 conference games. Take Florida State. |

11-02-19 | Houston v. Central Florida -21.5 | 29-44 | Loss | -103 | 22 h 57 m | Show | |
6* AAC Game of the Week on UCF -21.5 The Key: UCF could should probably be 8-0 but they are 6-2 with their 2 losses coming by a combined 4 points both on the road at Cincinnati and Pitt. Few teams have a more impressive win than the one the Knights pulled off last week. They won 63-21 at Temple as 11-point favorites. That’s a Temple team that has upset both Maryland and Memphis at home and are great as underdogs. They had 348 more total yards than Temple in that game. Now they will blow the doors off of Houston, which has decided to look to next year by redshirting their two best players at QB and WR. The Cougars are just 3-5 this season and likely won’t even be going to a bowl game this year. Their defense is giving up 462.7 YPG, which is bad news against a UCF offense that scores 46.6 PPG and averages 561.4 YPG. The Knights are 6-0 ATS in home games after gaining 6.25 YPP or more in 2 consecutive games over the last 2 years. Take UCF. |
|||||||
11-02-19 | Buffalo v. Eastern Michigan +1 | 43-14 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 56 m | Show | |
6* MAC Game of the Week on Eastern Michigan +1 The Key: Eastern Michigan is coming off a tough 3-point loss at Toledo. I expect the Eagles to bounce back at home Saturday against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo is coming off a misleading 43-20 home win over Central Michigan. That’s a CMU team that gave the game away with 5 turnovers. This is an awful Buffalo offense that averages 355.1 YPG, including 351.5 YPG in conference play. It’s a good time to jump on Eastern Michigan after failing to cover the spread in 4 of their last 5 games coming in. I like this EMU offense that averages 414.5 YPG in conference play and is completing 66.6% of its passes for 288 YPG on the year. The Eagles are 9-1 ATS off a conference loss over the last 3 seasons. The Eagles are 8-0 ATS off a close conference loss by 7 points or less over the last 3 years. The Bulls are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games. The Eagles are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games following an ATS loss. The home team is 4-0 SU in the last 4 meetings. Take Eastern Michigan. |

6* NBA Western Conference *CA$H COW* on San Antonio Spurs -6.5 The Key: The Golden State Warriors may be the worst team in the Western Conference now without Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant. They just don’t even have a chance of being competitive now with their only 2 good players being De’Angelo Russell and Draymond Green. The Warriors would be better off just trading Russell and packing it in this season at this point. They have no depth and are one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. They are allowing 126.2 PPG and 52% shooting to opponents this year. The Warriors are 12-30-1 ATS in their last 43 home games. The Spurs are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take San Antonio. |

11-01-19 | Navy v. Connecticut OVER 54 | Top | 56-10 | Win | 100 | 9 h 36 m | Show |
7* Navy/UConn NCAAF Friday Night Lights on OVER 54 The Key: The Navy Midshipmen have one of the most explosive offenses they’ve ever had this season. They are scoring 37.9 PPG this season and it’s a big reason why they are 6-1. They should be able to name their score against a soft Connecticut defense that yields 37.7 PPG on the year. The Huskies have showed some offensive punch this season scoring at least 21 points in 5 of their 8 games, including 56 against UMass last week. I think they can get to 21 here as well to help out this OVER. The OVER is 6-1 in Navy’s last 7 games against a team with a losing record. Take the OVER. |

10-31-19 | 49ers v. Cardinals OVER 43 | Top | 28-25 | Win | 100 | 7 h 36 m | Show |
7* 49ers/Cardinals NFC Total of the Month on OVER 43 The Key: The 49ers will cover the majority of this total on their own. They are scoring 29.6 PPG on the year and will shred an Arizona defense that ranks 29th in giving up 27.9 PPG and 407 YPG. The Cardinals at least have a decent offense under Kliff Kingsbury and will get some points themselves. This has the makings of somewhere in the neighborhood of a 30-20 final. Bets on the OVER on road teams where the total is 42.5 to 49 off a home win by 10 points or more, undefeated on the season are 40-14 since 1983. Take the OVER. |

6* WVU/Baylor Big 12 *CA$H COW* on Baylor -18 The Key: The Baylor Bears have been flying under the radar this season despite being 7-0. Now they get a chance to show the world how good they are at home on National TV Thursday night, and I think they come through with one of their best performances of the season because of it. It’s not like the Bears are beating up on cupcakes. They beat a very good Iowa State team at home, crushed Kansas State 31-12 on the road, and beat Oklahoma State 42-27 on the road. That’s the same Kansas State team that just upset Oklahoma, and an Oklahoma State team that nearly beat Texas on the road and also just upset Iowa State on the road. West Virginia is awful. They lost at home to Texas by 11, at home to Iowa State by 24 and on the road to Oklahoma by 38. They also lost at Missouri by 31 and have been very bad on the road. Baylor is 10-1 ATS in its last 11 games as a home favorite of 14.5 to 21 points. Take Baylor. |

10-31-19 | Heat v. Hawks UNDER 215 | 106-97 | Win | 100 | 5 h 21 m | Show | |
6* Heat/Hawks NBA *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 215 The Key: I really like betting the UNDER in Game 2 of these home-and-home situations. The Heat and Hawks played on Tuesday with the Heat winning 112-97 at home in a game that saw 209 combined points. And now Trae Young won’t be available for this game, yet the total is 215. The Hawks are lost offensively without Young and it showed in that game Tuesday when he went out with the Heat leading 33-31. The Heat went on a big run after that and put away the Hawks, who shot just 42.2% from eh field. The UNDER is 25-12 in Heat last 37 Thursday games. The UNDER is 4-0 in Hawks last 4 games overall. The UNDER is 35-17 in the last 52 meetings. Take the UNDER. |

7* Suns/Warriors NBA *BAILOUT* on OVER 229 The Key: The Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors both like to get up and down the floor as both teams rank in the top half of the league in pace. Both teams also rank in the top half of the league in offensive efficiency, and the Warriors are dead last in defensive efficiency. The Suns rank well on defense right now, but that’s not going to last. The Suns are scoring 114 PPG, the Warriors are scoring 116 PPG, and the Warriors are giving up 128 PPG. Teams are shooting 54.2% on this soft Warriors defense. These teams have combined for at least 224 points in 6 of their last 7 meetings. The OVER is 7-1 in Suns last 8 games off a loss. The OVER is 17-8 in the last 25 meetings at Golden State. Take the OVER. |

6* NBA Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Charlotte Hornets +7.5 The Key: The Sacramento Kings can’t be this big of a favorite over anyone. They are 0-4 SU & 0-4 ATS losing by an average of 19.5 PPG. They haven’t even been competitive, and Luke Walton is once again proving that he’s one of the worst head coaches in the NBA after his failed experiment with the Lakers. The Kings should have never fired Dave Joerger. The Hornets have played a brutal schedule and are 1-3. They beat the Bulls at home, and their 3 losses came to the Clippers, Lakers and Timberwolves. They step back down in class here against a Kings team they can handle. The Hornets are 15-4 ATS in their last 19 games off 2 or more consecutive losses. Charlotte is 6-0 ATS in its last 6 games against a team that wins less than 40% of their games. The Hornets are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. The Kings are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games overall. Take Charlotte. |

6* Nationals/Astros Game 7 *CA$H COW* on Washington +123 The Key: The Washington Nationals will improve to 10-0 this postseason in games decided by Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg when they win Game 7 Wednesday night. Scherzer is 3-0 with a 1.42 ERA in his last 3 starts and 9-2 with a 2.49 ERA in 14 road starts this year. Zack Greinke is 0-4 with a 5.56 ERA in his last 7 playoff starts and isn’t built to handle this big of a moment. The Nationals have won 7 straight playoff road games. The Nationals are 11-1 in their last 12 trips to Houston. Take Washington. |

7* Nationals/Astros Game 6 *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington +1.5 (-135) The Key: Stephen Strasburg is too good to allow the Astros to beat the Nationals by more than one run tonight, let alone beat him at all. I think the price is right to pull the trigger on the Nationals on the Run Line here. Strasburg is 5-2 with a 1.34 ERA in 8 postseason starts lifetime. Justin Verlander is 0-3 with a 5.40 ERA in his last 4 playoff starts this season. Take Washington. |

10-29-19 | Hawks +8 v. Heat | 97-112 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 5 m | Show | |
6* Hawks/Heat NBA *CA$H COW* on Atlanta +8 The Key: The Atlanta Hawks are 3-0 ATS this season and have been a money making machine dating back to last year. The Hawks are 20-7 ATS in their last 27 games overall and 10-2 ATS in their last 12 road games. They are catching too many points from the Miami Heat tonight. Jimmy Butler makes his season debut for the Heat and I think it will throw off their chemistry. The Hawks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings with the Heat while winning 4 times outright as underdogs. Take Atlanta. |

10-28-19 | Jazz -4 v. Suns | 96-95 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
6* Jazz/Suns NBA *CA$H COW* on Utah -4 The Key: The Jazz have one of the best rosters in the NBA and are a real contender in the West. They added Mike Conley and Bojan Bogdanovic this offseason. They are 2-1 with their only loss coming on the road to the Lakers. The Suns are fool’s gold with heir 2-1 SU & 3-0 ATS start this year. The Jazz will expose them tonight as I think we are getting them very cheap based on series history. The Jazz are 7-0 SU & 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings with the Suns with all 7 wins coming by 10 points or more and by an average of 24.1 PPG. Take Utah. |

10-28-19 | Dolphins +15 v. Steelers | Top | 14-27 | Win | 100 | 65 h 30 m | Show |
7* Monday Night Football Game of the Year on Miami Dolphins +15 The Key: Ryan Fitzpatrick plays with a fire that is contagious. He nearly led the Dolphins from 14 points down to beat the Redskins but just came up short on a 2-point conversion. Then he nearly beat one of the best teams in the NFL on the road in the Bills last week, who were coming off their bye. Fitzpatrick is ready for the big Monday Night Football stage now. The Steelers aren’t good enough offensively to pull away from the Dolphins. They are 28th in total offense. I would argue the Dolphins are actually the better offensive team in this matchup with Fitzpatrick. This line has gotten out of hand with Miami catching more than 2 touchdowns. The Steelers are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games off a bye week. The Steelers are also 12-28 ATS in their last 40 games as a favorite of at least 10 points. Take Miami. |

10-28-19 | Warriors v. Pelicans -4.5 | 134-123 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 57 m | Show | |
6* Warriors/Pelicans NBA *CA$H COW* on New Orleans -4.5 The Key: The Warriors are clearly broken this year. Not only do they miss Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson, but they also miss 2 key players they were depending on this season. Their 2 best big men in Kevon Looney and Willie Cauley-Stein are both out. The Warriors lost by 19 at home to the Clippers and by 28 on the road to the Thunder. I don’t think they are fixable here early in the season due to the injuries and lack of depth. The Pelicans are 0-3, but their 3 losses all came by 7 points or less to 3 really good teams in the Raptors, Mavs and Rockets with 2 of them on the road. The Pelicans will get their first win of the season in blowout fashion at home Monday night. Take New Orleans. |

10-27-19 | Packers v. Chiefs OVER 47.5 | Top | 31-24 | Win | 100 | 42 h 35 m | Show |
7* NFL Total of the Year on Packers/Chiefs OVER 47.5 The Key: Oddsmakers have adjusted this total too much for Patrick Mahomes being out. Andy Reid has 10 days to get Matt Moore ready to run this offense after the Chiefs last played on Thursday. And I think the Chiefs will continue to be one of the best offensive teams in the NFL this week even with Moore at QB because the scheme is great and the weapons are some of the best in the NFL. I also expect Aaron Rodgers to put up a ton of points and continue playing at an MVP level. The Packers are putting up 30.6 PPG in their last 5 games overall. Now they’ll be up against a Chiefs defense that ranks 25th in yielding 377.4 YPG. And the Chiefs are likely to be without their 2 best pass rushers in Chris Jones and Frank Clark, as well as one of their top corners in Kendall Fuller. The Packers are 26th in total defense at 381 YPG allowed. They have recently allowed 563 yards to the Cowboys and 484 yards to the Raiders in 2 of their last 3 games coming in. The OVER is 19-7 in Packers last 26 road games. The OVER is 8-2 in Chiefs last 10 against a team with a winning record. The OVER is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. Take the OVER. |

6* NBA Situational *SLAM DUNK* on Minnesota Timberwolves -6.5 The Key: The situation favors the Minnesota Timberwolves in a big way tonight. It’s their home opener, they play at one of the fastest paces in the NBA, and they get a Miami Heat team that will be playing the second of a back-to-back after their huge overtime win in Milwaukee yesterday. Look for the Timberwolves to try and run them out of the building. Take Minnesota. |

6* Cardinals/Saints NFC *CA$H COW* on Arizona +10.5 The Key: The love for the New Orleans Saints is getting out of hand. They are 6-1 this season and have covered 5 straight coming in. The price is right to now go against them. I think the Saints are making a mistake likely bringing back Drew Brees this week. This line has gone to double-digits since that news came out. And they could still be without Alvin Kamara. The Cardinals are 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS in their last 3 games, yet they aren’t getting any credit for it. Patrick Peterson recently returned from a 6-game suspension and has given the defense a big boost. The Cardinals have stayed relatively healthy compared to most teams, too. And Kyler Murray is starting to thrive in Kliff Kingsbury’s offense as the Cardinals are scoring 29 PPG in their last 3 games. They have the firepower to hang with the Saints, and to get in the back door if it comes to it. The Cardinals are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games. The Saints are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games. Take Arizona. |

10-27-19 | Jets +6.5 v. Jaguars | 15-29 | Loss | -103 | 34 h 15 m | Show | |
6* Jets/Jaguars AFC *CA$H COW* on New York +6.5 The Key: This line was Jaguars -4.5 before the Jets played the Patriots on Monday Night Football. After they lost 33-0, this line has been adjusted up to Jaguars -6.5. It’s too big of a move, and the price is right to pull the trigger on the Jets now. The Patriots are making almost every quarterback they face look bad, and Sam Darnold can attest to that as the Jets turned the ball over 6 times. The Jaguars aren’t the Patriots. They had lost 2 in a row before pulling away late thanks to a defensive touchdown to beat the winless Bengals 27-17. The fact that they were in a dog fight with the Bengals until the very end tells you all you need to know. The Jaguars can’t be favored by nearly a TD over a Jets team that is way better than the Bengals. Keep in mind the Jets beat the Cowboys outright as 7-point dogs the week before losing to the Patriots. The Jaguars are 0-8 ATS in their last 8 after allowing 75 or fewer rushing yards in their previous game. Jacksonville is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games off a win. Take New York. |

6* Astros/Nationals Game 4 *CA$H COW* on Washington -103 The Key: The Washington Nationals have a big pitching advantage tonight. They go with Patrick Corbin and will have their best bullpen arms available after none of them pitched last night. The Astros go with rookie Jose Urquidy and probably won’t have all of their best bullpen arms available after they all pitched last night. Take Washington. |

6* Boston College/Clemson ACC *CA$H COW* on Boston College +34.5 The Key: The Boston College Eagles just aren’t getting any respect from oddsmakers as nearly 5-touchdown underdogs to Clemson. This despite that the Eagles are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall. They beat Rutgers by 14 on the road, only lost by 3 to Wake Forest as 4.5-point dogs, only lost by 2 to Louisville as 4-point dogs, and put forth their best effort of the season last week in a 45-24 home win over NC State as 4-point dogs. Boston College is putting up huge numbers offensively, which makes me think they can hang. They had 533 yards against Wake Forest, 563 yards against Louisville and 532 yards against NC State in their last 3 games coming in. They like to run the ball and control the clock, which will give them a better chance of keeping this game close by shortening the game. 13 of the last 14 meetings were decided by 27 points or fewer and that’s a 13-1 angle supporting the Eagles. Take Boston College. |

6* NBA Eastern Conference *CA$H COW* on Milwaukee Bucks -10.5 The Key: The Bucks should roll in their home opener over the depleted Miami Heat tonight. The Bucks have won and covered 3 straight against the Heat with all 3 wins coming by 15 points or more and by an average of 27.3 PPG. The Bucks have beaten the Heat badly in their last 2 meetings in Milwaukee by an average of 34.5 PPG. Take Milwaukee. |

10-26-19 | Arizona v. Stanford -108 | Top | 31-41 | Win | 100 | 37 h 55 m | Show |
7* Pac-12 Game of the Year on Stanford PK The Key: Stanford is too prideful to pack it in. The Cardinal are 3-4 this season but they’ve played the 3rd-ranked schedule in the country. They are coming off a bad loss to UCLA, but that was with their 3rd-string QB, which is one of the worst QB’s I’ve ever seen. Now the Cardinal should get back either starter KJ Costello or 2nd-stringer Davis Mills this week from injury. Both have been effective, so as long as one of them starts as I’m expecting, we’ll be good to go. Arizona lost 27-51 at home to Washington and 14-41 at USC in its last two games. The Wildcats are getting too much respect from oddsmakers this week. The Wildcats are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 road games. The Cardinal are 5-0 SU & 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings winning 4 of those games by 24 points or more. The Wildcats are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 road games off 2 straight conference games. Take Stanford. |
