11-14-20 | Wisconsin v. Michigan +5 | Top | 49-11 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 27 m | Show |
Wisconsin at Michigan 7:30 ET Wolverines (+) over Badgers- Wisconsin opened the year with one of the most dominating performances of this cockeyed season destroying hapless Illinois 45-7. The Badgers held the Illini to just 218 total yards which is best in the nation with just one game played. Michigan of course has garnered plenty of attention having lost two straight after an opening win over Minnesota as they fell to rival Michigan State and last week to Indiana who they had defeated 22 straight times. The media is starting to pressure Wolves coach Jim Harbaugh as Michigan licks their wounds while Wisconsin has had to deal with COVID issues having games cancelled and being idle for three weeks. After playing an defeating an inferior opponent the Badgers get to pat themselves on the back and lose their competitive edge. The Wolverines are desperate for a win and I expect a huge effort here as the home team is 7-2-1 ATS in the past 10 meetings. Take MICHIGAN! |

11-12-20 | Colts +2 v. Titans | Top | 34-17 | Win | 100 | 34 h 15 m | Show |
Indianapolis at Tennessee 8:20 ET Colts (+) over Titans- Indianapolis had won five of six before bowing to Baltimore at home last Sunday although their offense produced 10 more first downs and 100 yards more in total. Tennessee meanwhile had their first solid effort in a month controlling the Bears until late in the game winning 24-17 despite making only 11 first downs. The Colts who are just 0-3-1 ATS in their last four games as underdogs have rebound powers as they are 5-0-1 ATS after double-digits loss at home and are 12-4-1 ATS when playing on Thursdays. Although the favorite is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings the Titans are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as favorites and Indianapolis is 6-2 ATS in Tennessee and 13-4 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Take the COLTS! |

11-08-20 | Saints v. Bucs -4 | Top | 38-3 | Loss | -109 | 27 h 4 m | Show |
New Orleans at Tampa Bay 8:20 ET Buccaneers (-) over Saints- I can tell you right off that I am so NOT impressed with the Saints. I'm not sure exactly what it is but it might have something to do with their 2-5 ATS record. Both New Orleans and Tampa Bay are riding winning streaks with the Halo's having won their last four but failing to cover in their last three while the Buc's have won three straight including that fourth quarter comeback against the Giants. Tampa's defense is No. 1 against the rush allowing 70 yards a game while nNew Orleans is third at 91 yards per. Both QB's Brees and Brady have shown their ages at times but it appears Brady is still in charge. NO is 0-4 ATS against teams with winning records. Take TAMPA BAY! |

11-08-20 | Ravens v. Colts +1 | Top | 24-10 | Loss | -100 | 20 h 58 m | Show |
Baltimore at Indianapolis 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Ravens- I question that I have been asking about the Ravens is that have they finally been exposed for what they are. What they are is a team like the NY Yankees built for the Home Run Derby but not to win championships. It isn't an accident that the Ravens are 'Never-more' when up against top defenses. Although they out-gained the Steelers last week their quarterback play fail in the most important situations. When you lead the league in rushing and your leading rusher is your quarterback he becomes useless as a passer (31st in passing yards) when his run game is shorted. Get this the Colts are 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings and their defense is ranked No. 2 allowing just 293 yards per game. They are also 12-4 ATS against teams with winning records and win here. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |

11-07-20 | Houston +13 v. Cincinnati | Top | 10-38 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 23 m | Show |
Houston at Cincinnati 3:30 ET Cougars (+) over Bearcats- Cincinnati will hang their hats on their defense as they allowing 12 points per games ranked No. 7 in points allowed and 15th in total overall defense. There last two win came over SMU and Memphis last week dominating both clubs. The Bearcats have out-gained every opponent including the powder-puffs they played like Austin Peay, Army and South Florida. Houston meanwhile has had five games postponed or cancelled and opened the season trailing Tulane 24-0 at the half and came back to win. Since then, they have lost to BYU and Central Florida a pair of pretty good clubs and defeated Navy. There is just too much attention being paid to the Bearcats and with the ESPN and national attention coming an opponent always wants to make an impression. Note that the Cougars are 19-6-1 ATS in their last 26 games as road underdogs. Take HOUSTON! |

11-06-20 | BYU v. Boise State +3.5 | Top | 51-17 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 15 m | Show |
BYU at Boise State 9:45 ET Broncos (+) over Cougars- No. 7 BYU might have the best quarterback in the country in Zack Wilson and with all the attention going to Lawrence and others and this week he's up against at thorn in the Cougars side. You see, Boise is 6-0 SU lifetime when hosting this 'Border War' including a start by Wilson in 2018 a 21-16 SU loss but a winner ATS getting +11. This time the Cougars are the favorite but the result will be the same although they are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 road games. As far as the Broncos are concerned they play well at home 6-1 ATS last-7 and as underdogs going 7-1 last eight in that roll. I kinda thing that they might have the wrong team favored here. Take BOISE STATE! |

11-05-20 | Wyoming v. Colorado State +3.5 | Top | 24-34 | Win | 100 | 23 h 6 m | Show |
Wyoming at Colorado State 9:00 ET Rams (+) over Cowboys- Last Thursday and Friday 'we' posted against Colorado State and won with Fresno State (+) outright 38-17 and on Friday 'we' had Wyoming (+) outright over Hawaii 31-7. So entering this matchup I believe that I have a bead on both these clubs. I love the way this game sets up and believe the Rams at home have a decided advantage over the Cowboys although the visitor in is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. They are also 14-6 ATS in their last 20 as favorites while the Rams are 7-3 ATS after a SU loss and are 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games. Take COLORADO STATE! |

11-01-20 | Titans v. Bengals +7 | Top | 20-31 | Win | 100 | 22 h 6 m | Show |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NFL Vegas Hotline Winner Tennessee at Cincinnati 1:00 ET Bengals (+) over Titans- I can't say that the Titans were exposed in last weeks' 27-24 loss to Pittsburgh, but without a running game that couldn't muster half (82) their per game average of 169 and totaled just 292 yards. Cincinnati's has won just one game of seven and are a stellar 5-2 ATS but their problem is that they don't play very good defense allowing almost 400 yards and 28 points per game. Tennessee won four single possession games beating powers like the Jaguars by 3, Vikings by 1, Broncos by 2 and Texans in overtime, the bunch are a combined 5-21 SU. Bengals in playing tough and ready to surprise as rookie Joe Burrow had 406 yards passing last week with three touchdowns as the Bengals are poised to win. The Cats are 5-1 in their last six meetings and the Titans are 6-19 ATS in their last 25 road games against teams with losing records. Take CINCINNATI! |

10-31-20 | North Carolina v. Virginia +7.5 | Top | 41-44 | Win | 100 | 26 h 59 m | Show |
North Carolina at Virginia 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Tar Heels- I know they are good, real good and although the Tar Heels are 4-1 SU 'we' are 5-0 ATS having had a side in each of their contests. (I have a bead on this club). On paper this looks like a route with North Carolina who is second to Clemson in the ACC and is No. 8 in the nation with 531 yards offense and have committed just one turnover. Struggling Virginia has lost four straight since an opening win over Duke and had to scrap and claw to get the 'cover' last week against Miami-Fl (Megabucks winner) and that's what they will do again here. The CavalIers defeated Sam Howell and the tar Heels last season 38-31 so they know what to expect. Take VIRGINIA! |

10-31-20 | Kansas State v. West Virginia -3.5 | Top | 10-37 | Win | 100 | 34 h 15 m | Show |
Kansas State at West Virginia 12:00 ET Mountaineers (-) over Wildcats- Since getting beat as a 15-point favorite at home against Arkansas State 35-31 Kansas State has reeled off four straight wins and covers including victories over Oklahoma, TCU, Texas Tech and last week Kansas. West Virginia meanwhile does their thing losing on the road (0-2) and winning at home (3-0) and this one's at home, but that isn't the key factor as to why you should take the Mountaineers and 'forget about it.' The 'Hillbillies' have out-gained each of their five opponents while the Wildcats can only claim one such advantage. K. State has as usual had the best of special teams play with 15 turnovers so far and five returns for TD's. West Virginia will counter with No. 6 defense allowing just 261 yards a game while KSU offense is ranked 70 they also grade out better on offense at 461 yards per. Take WEST VIRGINIA! |

10-30-20 | Hawaii v. Wyoming -114 | Top | 7-31 | Win | 100 | 20 h 2 m | Show |
Hawaii at Wyoming 9:45 ET Cowboys over Rainbows- You know what happens to Rainbows when they are in dry high altitude environment...they dissipate and are not seen again! That's what is about to happen to U. Hawaii as there is no bigger differential than playing at humid sea level conditions than to be in Laramie 7,165 feet above sea level. I trust that the site of this contest will tell the difference as Hawaii is just just 1-13 straight-up and 2-12 ATS when playing the second of consecutive road games. The former Warriors' stayed on the mainland for the week but this is the Cowboys home opener and they are 22-4 SU and after an OT loss at Nevada 10-4 ATS as home dogs and 14-6 ATS in their last 20 games when favored.

10-29-20 | Falcons +3 v. Panthers | Top | 25-17 | Win | 100 | 21 h 45 m | Show |
Atlanta at Carolina 8:20 ET Falcons (+) over Panthers- You have got to 'love' the NFL decision makers moves as at time it defies logic. Three weeks ago Atlanta finally let coach Dan Quinn go as the Falcons had the league's worst rated defense and yet a top three offense. So, upon his dismissal the brass that make the most important decisions promotes Defensive coordinator Raheem Morris to head coach. Under his lead the 'Dirty Birds' win at Minnesota and blew a 6-point lead allowing Detroit to drive 75 yards with 1:04 remaining and the defense could not make a stop. Am I missing something here? Now, this week Carolina welcomes to return of All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey as they try to recover after last weeks tough loss at New Orleans. The Panthers won the first meeting 23-16 which sent Atlanta to 0-5 and Quinn was let go the next day. But as bad as it looks for the Falcons they do manage to play Carolina better than other clubs. Atlanta is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings which includes the earlier loss this season and they are 6-1 in their last seven games as road underdogs. Carolina has upgraded with their coaching bringing Matt Rhule in will help but of late the Panthers are 3-8 ATS in their last games as favorites including 2-5 ATS as home favorites. Take ATLANTA! |

10-27-20 | Rays v. Dodgers -129 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 1 m | Show |
Tampa Bay and Los Angeles Dodgers 8:08 ET Dodgers over Rays- The level of play in this shortened season in the World Series makes me question if there should be a World Series Champion winner this season. After all there have been teams that were in the cellar of a division after 60 games and ended up in the playoffs. This season did not have the wear and tear that a full season would give us and the break-down of pitchers over a full season. Tampa Bay won Game 5 when THREE different Dodgers mishandled the ball on the final play allowing a 'trapped' runner to score from first base. The quality of baseball is at an all-time low and it is fitting that a team from the 'Land of Shallowness' and glitz wins a tainted title. Take LOS ANGELES! |

10-25-20 | Seahawks v. Cardinals +3.5 | Top | 34-37 | Win | 100 | 26 h 47 m | Show |
Seattle at Arizona 8:20 ET Cardinals (+) over Seahawks- I love the spot, I love the matchup what I don't like is that I am sure that Arizona is going to be a 'heavy play' for the professionals. Also, as I have stated a number of times it is so hard to get bye Russell Wilson as we did last time out with Minny (+) 26-27. Seattle was off last week and brings their perfect 5-0 SU record and dead last rated defense into Phoenix. The Seahawks allow 471.2 yards per contest while Arizona's offense is ranked No. 5 with 403 yds per game. That being said Seattle is 13-4-1 ATS in their last 18 road games and 6-2-1 ATS as favorites. Cardinals 4-0-1 as dogs last five and the dogs is 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take ARIZONA! |

10-25-20 | Bucs v. Raiders +5 | Top | 45-20 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 12 m | Show |
Tampa Bay at Las Vegas 4:25 ET Raiders (+) over Buccaneers- I'm still trying to figure out who the Raiders are going to field on their offensive line as the entire crew was put on lockdown and were not allowed to practice this week. So, will Derek Carr get the protection he needs as Tampa Bay's No. 1 defense is second sacks with 22. Las Vegas although playing with some missing practice has had two weeks to prepare and John Gruden can hang with Bruce Arians and move the ball. Buccaneers could have a slight lull after taking down the Packers that way they did and traveling three times zones. Take LAS VEGAS! |

10-25-20 | Packers v. Texans +3.5 | Top | 35-20 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 16 m | Show |
Green Bay at Houston 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Packers- With 1:48 left in the contest last Sunday the graphics posted stated that with Houston leading 36-29 and an extra-point try pending by the Texans that had a 98.6% chance of winning. But, remember Romeo Crennel whose last led KC to a 2-14 season in 2012 and is now the acting head coach and he was able to show 'us' those odds are not insurmountable. So, the Texans lose in overtime while Green Bay was getting pummeled by Tampa Bay 38-10 (Megabucks winner). Aaron Rogers had one of his career worst days (16-35, 160 Yd, 2 Int) but now faces the league's worst rushing defense. To start with the way the Packers respond after a loss bothers me as they are 10-1 ATS in their following game and although Texans are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games they are 11-5-1 ATS in their games following an ATS loss. Take HOUSTON! |

10-24-20 | Virginia +14 v. Miami-FL | Top | 14-19 | Win | 100 | 20 h 26 m | Show |
Virginia at Miami-Fl 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Hurricanes- It's difficult to keep in mind that Virginia played in the ACC championship game last season as they enter this contest having lost three straight games by 17+ points while having to use four different quarterbacks. The difference for Miami (4-1) this year is the QB maturity of D'Eriq King has helped settle their offense but their defense allows 396 yards. Virginia has actually out-gained their opponents but have been hampered by 12 turnovers and costly errors at key moments. Cavaliers are 13-5 ATS against teams with winning records while the Hurricanes are 4-1 ATS at home, but Cavs also 4-1 ATS last five at Miami and the underdog is 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings. Take VIRGINIA! |

10-24-20 | Baylor v. Texas -9.5 | Top | 16-27 | Win | 100 | 16 h 38 m | Show |
Baylor at Texas 3:30 ET Longhorns (-) over Bears- What is going on Texas and Oklahoma both have a pair of losses in by week six of college football. Texas coach Tom Harmon is under the gun as they say in Texas as the results of his hire have yet to measure up to expectations while first-year Baylor coach Dave Aranda is just hoping to have 11 starters on each side of the ball ready to go. The Bears have had three games postponed because of COVID contacts including 28 players and 14 coaches testing positive on Oct 3 and then 17 other players teated positive on Oct 12. Sunday, they got to practice for the first time since October 7th. I just don't see them as being ready for the Longhorns who have won the last five in the series, Take TEXAS! |

10-24-20 | NC State v. North Carolina -14.5 | Top | 21-48 | Win | 100 | 12 h 25 m | Show |
N.C. State at North Carolina 12:00 ET Tar Heels (-) over Wolfpack- I don't know what it is but North Carolina has played four games and I have posted a 'side' in each of their contests and I'm 4-0 ATS having had Florida State in last week's outright 31-28 win over the Tar Heels. N.C. State who is playing their fourth road game is 4-1 SU and 4-1 ATS and I haven't had much interest in any of their games until I saw this 'number' here. My first thoughts were, are the Wolfpack really this long an underdog (+15) against their 'biggest' rival' in a series where the underdog is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Add that the road team is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings. Maybe the broken leg of starting QB against Duke influenced the line but, Bailey Hockman returns to the job he lost after opening the season with two starts. Mack Brown has NC on the rise and the Heels coming off last week's beating and should return to form in kind take over on defense against an NC State team that has been out-gained in total yards in three of last four. Carolina won last year 41-10 after three straight losses to the Pack and they romp again! Take NORTH CAROLINA! |

10-23-20 | Dodgers v. Rays UNDER 7.5 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -113 | 7 h 38 m | Show |
Los Angeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay 8:08 ET Dodgers/Rays UNDER- Game 3 starters have contrasting styles with similar results. Veteran Charlie Morton (2-2, 4.74 ERA) gets the nod for Tampa Bay and he is 3-0 with a 0.57 ERA this postseason and is 5-0 with a 0.70 ERA in five postseason starts with the Rays. His counterpart for the Dodgers will be Walker Buehler (1-0, 3.44) who is 1-0 in four postseason starts with a 1.89 ERA with 29 K's in 19 innings who has never faced Tampa Bay. It's scary how good Morton has been but there is one blemish in his past as he is 0-1 with a 6.55 ERA in two career starts against the Dodgers. Take UNDER! |

10-22-20 | Giants +4.5 v. Eagles | Top | 21-22 | Win | 100 | 23 h 56 m | Show |
New York Giants at Philadelphia 8:20 ET Giants (+) over Eagles- What dregs, these two from the NFC 'Least' have two wins between them after five full weeks. Injuries have been plaguing the Eagles the last two seasons while New York just has very little talent and they have been hit with major injuries as well. Still, with a win here Philadelphia can ascend into first place and their confidence should be high as they have defeated the Giants seven straight times. 'Big Blue' is 3-3 ATS and has been competitive and are 17-5 ATS in their last 22 as road underdogs and they are 5-1 ATS against teams with losing records and that including last weeks ATS loss against DC. Philly not so good as they are 2-6 ATS in their last eight at home and 0-4 ATS as favorites. Add that the road team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. Giants buoyed bye their victory last week get another win here. Take NEW YORK GIANTS! |

10-21-20 | Rays v. Dodgers -131 | Top | 6-4 | Loss | -131 | 9 h 45 m | Show |
Tampa Bay vs L.A. Dodgers 8:10 ET Rays over Dodgers- Okay, it's only one game but the Rays realize with their Cy Young Award winner on the mound that a win here is crucial. Tampa Bay will hand the ball to Blake Snell (4-2, 3.24 ERA) who is 2-2 with a 3.20 postseason ERA. L.A. will most likely start Tony Gonsolin (2-3, 3.23) who struggled in two appearances against Atlanta in the postseason (0-1, 9.95) walking six and striking out eight. Runs have been hard to come by for the Rays who averaged 3.5 the last two series and most of those runs came via home runs seven by Randy Arozarena and five by Manuel Margot who hit one during the regular season. From what we saw in Game 1 it looks like it is supposed to look with a 2-1 favorite winning big. But, don't sleep on these Rays even if they fail here they can still make it series and I'm not concerned with the zig-zag stuff I'm looking for the winner everyday. Take LOS ANGELES! |

10-19-20 | Chiefs v. Bills +5.5 | Top | 26-17 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 14 m | Show |
Kansas City at Buffalo 5:00 ET Bills (+) over Chiefs- This is not where we find out if Josh Allen can play with Patrick Mahomes we will find out if the Buffalo defense in playoff quality. Kansas City enters Bills Stadium with the No. 4 ranked offense averaging 29.8 ppg and Buffalo's offense is just behind them ranked No. 7 and second in passing yards 308 while the Chiefs throw for 288. It looked like this was going to be a match-up of un-beaten's but both were upset and out-played in losses last week with the Bills loss on Tuesday at Tennessee. KC's rush defense is 31st allowing 158 ypg while the Bills rushing game is no better than 27th at 94 rush ypg. Buffalo is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings and 5-2 ATS after a straight up loss. Chiefs have play well as road favorites going 9-2-1 ATS and the Bills are 3-7 ATS as home dogs. Still, it's BUFFALO! |

L.A. Rams (4-1) at San Francisco (2-3) 8:20 ET That odor you smell in San Francisco is not the Bay, it emanates from the QB position occupied by Jimmy 'Crap'-pollo who has yet to play at the level expected of him since coming over from the Patriots. Niners have two wins beating the Jets and Giants (0-10) and it is unknown if they can beat anybody that isn't from New York. Injuries have played a part in SF's drop in status, but, if they can get ready for anyone it would be a favorite from Los Angeles. The Rams have played well losing once at Buffalo trailing 28-3 taking the lead and lose with 0:15 by a 3-yard TD pass. By the Numbers: LA is 10-3 ATS L-13 road games and 13-5-1 ATS as favorites. 49er's 5-1 ATS as dogs L-6 and 6-2 ATS versus teams with winning records. Under 10-2 L-12 when Rams favored and 12-3 Under L-15 on road vs. teams with losing hm records. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

Green Bay at Tampa Bay 4:25 ET Buccaneers (+) over Packers- A quarterback matchup for the ages and I suggest you find a place to watch this one. It's been said that 43-year Tom Brady is a 'hare' slower and lacking the zip on the ball he once possessed and maybe so. No, such storyline with Aaron Rogers who leads the NFL's No. 2 offense in Total yards and No.1 in scoring. But, alas the Buccaneers own the No. 2 ranked defense and with the home cardboard cuts outs for support they will force the Packers to 'walk the plank.' We will 'learn' about more Tom Brady...if he remembers where he is, what quarter is it or what DOWN is it...it'll be fun! Take TAMPA BAY! |

Houston at Tampa Bay 8:30 ET Do you think baseball set this up like this? Sometimes I wonder. I'm still sick from the 2004 0-3 comeback by the 'Commie Saux' against the 27-time World Series Champion New York Yankees. HA! In my heart I don't want those dirty stinkin' cheater Astros to go anywhere. Houston received biggest break ever with the virus affecting this season as they never had to listen to the fans wrath and believe me it just wasn't from the fans as the commish came down heavy early at aggressions towards the Astros. It's too bad for the Astros because I saw them 'live' a number of times in Houston from Altuve and Correa's rookie seasons and you could tell that they were going to be good...but! So, now my 'main man' born in Jersey and grew up in Connecticut veteran Charlie Morton (2-2, 4.74 ERA) gets the Game 7 ball and he is 2-0 with a 0.92 ERA in the post season. My other 'cunnythumber' Lance McCullars (3-3, 3.93), 0-1 4.09 ERA in post season 7 innings and 11 K's in the 4-2 loss while surrendering five homers this post-season. Charlie Morton who went 5 innings with 0 runs on 5 hits in Game 2. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Texas A&M at Mississippi State 4:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Aggies- I LOVE this match-up after last weeks results and I can say I rate this one HIGHER than last weeks SEC Game of Month winner Texas A&M OUTRIGHT 41-38 over Florida. Now, we have the Aggies fresh off that upset win and must travel to Starkville to face an angry Bulldog team that has dropped their last two. Mississippi State started the season with a huge 44-34 win over LSU with K.J. Costello (transfer from Stanford) passing for an SEC record 623 yards and dropped their last two to Arkansas and Kentucky. The 24-2 loss to the Wildcats was a joke as the Bulldogs defense allowed just 158 total yards but SIX interceptions did them in. The Aggies are off their upset win over the Gators and battled Alabama the week before, there may not be much fuel let in the tank. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

BYU at Houston 9:30 ET Cougars (+) over Cougars- HA! Not only is it confusing enough with both teams nicknames the Cougars but the site has been changed from Provo, Utah to Houston. Undefeated BYU (5-0) has had a soft schedule to this point while Houston had five games cancelled before their opener last week a come-back 49-31 win over Tulane after trailing 24-7 at the half. Houston committed five TO's (4 in 1st half) and with explosive talent made a number of 'big plays.' BYU's offense centers around QB Zach Wilson who has accounted for 14 TD's with one TO and 81.2% completions leading the offense to 557 yards a game. Although they were scheduled to play at home BYU is none-the-less 11-5 ATS on 'planned' road games...this one's different. Houston not to be taken lightly is 21-7-1 ATS as home underdogs. Take HOUSTON! |

The Rays have a .197 batting average and obviously pitching is they're key to winning. Today, Houston will start Framber Valdez (5-3, 3.57 ERA) who is 2-1 with a 2.00 ERA in the post season losing Game 1 allowing two runs on only four hits in six innings. Tampa Bay will start Blake Snell (4-2, 3.24) who went five innings in Game 1 allowing just one run. After their 0-3 team meeting Houston responded with a pair of wins and nothing matters unless they win again today. Take the HOUSTON! |

Tampa Bay vs Houston 5:07 ET The Rays have a 3-1 series advantage despite a .197 batting average and obviously pitching is their key to winning. As of 1PM ET Tampa Bay has announced a starter in John Curtiss (0-0,0.00 ERA) and for Houston it looks like manager Dusty Baker will use 'All-Staff' as he has yet to announce a starter. After their 0-3 team meeting Houston responded with their 4-3 win in Game 4 but, nothing matters unless they win again today and they won't. Take the TAMPA BAY! |

Tampa Bay vs Houston 8:40 ET Rays over Astros- Tampa Bay is sending Tyler Glasnow (7-1, 4.08 ERA) to the mound and they have has won his last 11 starts. In Playoff action he has 20 K's in 13.1 innings and still he looked back at tape and said that he was tipping his pitches. If he corrects that who's going to hit him? Zack Greinke (3-3, 4.16) goes to the hill and he hasn't had his best of his 17 seasons, as shoulder problems have plague him the past three years, but he is aided by the cardboard cut outs in place of fans because of his anxiety phobia. I believe the Rays will get to Greinke early and go deep into the Astros bullpen. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Tampa Bay vs Houston 8:40 ET Astros over Rays- 'We've' posted Megabucks winners on the Rays the first two games and like this spot even more than that pair. To me it's the way the 'numbers' set up and I believe that 'they' have moved to the other side. Tampa Bay will be starting Ryan Yarbrough (1-4, 3.56 ERA) who will be making his first ever post-season start but has appeared against the Yankees in Game 4 going five innings allowing two runs on six hits with just one strikeout against those 'free' swingers. Houston will start Jose Urquidy (1-1, 2.73 ERA) and he has no post season record but he surrendered four solo homers to Oakland last Wednesday with no decision. The Astros will put the ball in play against Yarbrough as he is not a swing and miss pitcher and Houston will make contact often enough to score and win. Take HOUSTON! |

Tennessee has had 23 players or staff test positive affecting their two top receivers Cory Davis and Adam Humphries. Buffalo off a 30-23 win against the Raiders in Las Vegas and is 4-0 with a 2-game division lead. The Titans are 0-3 ATS having won by a grand total of six points winning by 1, 2 and 3 points against the Jaguars, Broncos and Vikings a combined 2-10. The Bills have put it together of late and are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games as favorites and 8-2-2 ATS in their last 12 road games but just 1-3-1 ATS in their last five overall. The Titans versus AFC are 7-2-1 last 10 but just 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 home games and 0-4 ATS in their last four overall. The underdogs is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings. Take TENNESSEE! |

Houston vs Tampa Bay 4:07 ET Rays over Astros- Houston announced their rotation early and Lance McCullers (3-3, 3.93 ERA) has been elected to start Game 2 regardless of the Game 1 outcome. Although he had a 2.18 ERA his last eight starts in the regular season in the playoffs against Oakland he surrendered five runs (four earned) and three homers and has a post-season ERA of 9.00. These two have split their last 10 meetings with the Astros taking the Division series 3-2 last season and getting to the World Series. With the Rays leading 1-0 they will counter with veteran Charlie Morton (3-2, 4.40) who is 3-0 in post-season play with an ERA of 1.20 and defeated the Astros in Game 3 of last year's playoffs. 'Doctor Evil' has taken away Houston's 'Mojo' and pored it over the Rays...Take TAMPA BAY! |

Houston vs Tampa Bay 7:37 ET Rays over Astros- This is the fourth straight season Houston has appeared in the ALCS having defeated Minnesota and Oakland winning 6-of-7 games. Tampa Bat of course came-from-behind to beat the Yankees and will be sending Blake Snell to the mound in Game 1 of this Best-of-Seven' series and he is 2-2 with a 4.73 ERA in six career starts against the Astros. The 'Space Cadets' will start Framber Valdez who is 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA in 12 playoff innings and has never faced the Rays. Snell made three playoff appearances last season all against Houston with an ERA of 1.69. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Indianapolis at Cleveland 4:25 ET Colts over Browns- This game caught my eye immediately with the Colts being favored in Cleveland with the Browns after an opening week road loss are on a three-game winning streak and totally dominated the Cowboys in Dallas (Money Game winner) last Sunday. Indianapolis's defense is ranked No. 1 but what I hear is that they haven't faced anybody, just four NFL teams. The Browns offense has been spirited by its running game as Baker Mayfield had a 60.8 QB rating as they team scored 49 points,. It won't be the same this week because the Cowgirls defense stinks and Indy's doesn't. Take the COLTS! |

Clemson 3-0 SU is 0-3 ATS and just keeps plodding along and of course they understand that this is their first major challenge of the season. The Hurricanes are 2-0 in ACC action as are the Tigers who are 5-2 ATS in the last six meetings in including 18-8 ATS in their last 26 as home favorites. They have also won the last two meetings by a combined score of 96-3 (Yep, that's right)! Hurricanes get blown away...take CLEMSON! |

Texas Tech at Iowa State 3:00 ET Cyclones (-) over Red Raiders- This is the game that will tell us if Iowa State is for real as they come off an upset of Oklahoma and now are double digit favorites against Texas Tech after defeating the Sooners for the first time at home in Ames in 60 years and 20 straight games. Iowa State has the Big-12 leading rusher in Breece Hall and the winningest quarterback in Cyclone history in Brock Purdy who has a win over all Big-12 opponents. Just an opening week shocker when State lost to La Tech will keep the public away and the price is another factor but in may not matter as the Red Raiders are at the bottom of the conference food chain. Number is high and probably for good reason. Take IOWA STATE! |

So understand, when I play against them that I have plenty of confidence and this one is really 'special'...special enough that I have used it as my SEC Game of the Month! To tell the truth I will be 'shocked' if A&M doesn't win this game on the field. The Gators will certainly be looking ahead to next week when they play LSU. The Aggies found out what it's like to be up against the 'Big Boys' (Alabama last week) and will last longer ready to win this game 'outright' and much less 'cover. If TEXAS A&M doesn't get the money here I will be honestly be shocked! Take the AGGIES! |

Tampa Bay vs N.Y. Yankees 7:10 ET Rays over Yankees- The Yankees have named Gerrit Cole as their Game 5 starter before they had even posted their 5-1 victory to stretch this series to it's limit and that's how it should be. Tampa Bay's starter Tyler Glasnow last faced Cole in the AL Division Series final as Cole started for Houston a game the Astros won 6-1 over the Rays at Minute Maid Park. Cole who threw 97 pitches in Game 1 has also lost two NCDS series finals to St. Louis and the Cubs while pitching for the Pirates. Both hurlers are on short rest as Glasnow got 10 strikeouts in Game 2 working 5+ innings surrendering four runs on three hits (long ball). The Rays sting here. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Tampa Bay at Chicago 8:20 ET Bears (+) over Buccaneers- Tampa Bay is brimming with confidence as well they should be after their come from behind victory over the Chargers storming back behind five Tom Brady TD passes. Brady has attained 'God-like' status among guys that have only known losing...Bucs are 3-1 after an opening week loss and are No. 8 in scoring offense at 30.0 points per and their defense is just about the middle of the Pack at No. 16. The Bears play a stout defense that is ranked No. 8 and their offense should get a boost with Nick Foles being named starter. To a man the Bears have known Foles should be the starter as Chicago finally admits failure in their Trubinsky 'project.' The Bears are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 as home dogs and the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings Take CHICAGO! |

10-08-20 | Rays +125 v. Yankees | Top | 1-5 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 5 m | Show |
Tampa Bay vs N.Y. Yankees 7:10 ET Rays over Yankees- The Yankees have already named Gerrit Cole as their Game 5 starter but the problem as I see it is that they have to get their first. New York will start the very inconsistent Jordan Montgomery (2-3 5.11 ERA) who is getting into his first post-season action. He has allowed seven run over his last two starts and gave up four runs in 2/3 of an inning against the Rays Sept. 2. Tampa Bay will start Ryan Thompson (1-2 4.44 ERA) who has worked two post-season innings surrendering three hits but no runs. Rays manager Dave Cash coined the phase a 'stable of arms' referring to his pitching staff as he will use his 'All-Staff' if need be. As I have said so many times before the Yankees are not built for the playoffs with a weak defense their Achilles heel. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Tampa Bay vs New York Yankees 7:10 ET Rays over Yankees- It is all or nothing for New York as they rarely score runs that are not powered by a home run. Yesterday, they had men on base throughout but their big swings and little contact created 18 strikeouts and no late inning rally. The key to playing against New York is knowing when Gary Sanchez is not in the lineup. Monday, he was 0-4, 3 K's and just ONE passed ball (that shows improvement!). Yankees pitchers HATE pitching to Sanchez and can't throw certain pitches with confidence as he mishandles so many balls during the game. There are actually times when he's at the backstop picking up the ball after a called third strike. Okay, enough about that hoax, bum and imposter of a professional baseball player. On to a team that is full of holes and were just not built for the playoffs as they put out the worst defense in the MLB every day. Sometimes, their defense (lack of) seems like a practical joke it's so bad. So guess, what...take TAMPA BAY! |

L.A. Lakers vs Miami 9:00 ET Heat (+) over Lakers- I could not have more off-base than what I predicted in Game 3 as Miami showed their grit and took it to the Lakers from start to finish winning 115-104. The Heat are brimming with confidence as Jimmy Butler's 'triple-double' wasn't enough of a statement until he boasts 'we won't lose again!' Los Angeles may have something to say about that as they have yet to lose back-to-back games and that may be so but they are 2-8-1 ATS after an ATS loss. Now, like when I hear a pitcher or quarterback say 'it's just another game' when it is more than just another game. The last to say it was Lamar Jackson before the Ravens against Kansas City on Monday night and he got smoked as they always do. In the same vein James says after his eight turnover performance, 'We're not concerned'....he should be! Miami is 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games overall. Enough for me! Take the HEAT! |

Atlanta at Green Bay 5:15 ET Falcons (+) over Packers- Why is Dan Quinn still coaching the Atlanta Falcons? Is it because he once got this team to the Super Bowl or does he have Jeffery Epstein type of video of the Falcons brass? It has to be something we are not aware of because since he blew a 28-3 second half lead to the Patriots in the Super Bowl his teams continue to fail with basic fundamentals. I'm wondering what Atlanta who rank 31st of 32 teams on defense can do to stop Aaron Rogers who's offense is ranked No. 2. In order to support the Falcons I have found some trends that might help. How about this Atlanta is 5-1 ATS in their six meetings at Green Bay and they road team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings plus they are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games. If you want to hear something about the Packers, well they bare 5-1 ATS in their last six as home favorites...Good luck. Take ATLANTA! |

New York Yankees vs Tampa Bay 8:07 ET Yankees over Rays- From what I am reading and hearing from the media is that the Rays and Yankees have a rivalry that is intense as the Red Sox and Yankees. Let me tell you from a New Yorker's view-point and even from a Bostonians eyes that will never happen. Yanks and Sox go back to 1919 and the trading of Babe Ruth and the continuation is on going. Not, to say that the Rays don't get 'up' for any series with the Bronx Bombers, after all they are still 27-time World Series Champions. The Rays have been the best team in baseball from start to finish this season and will start former Cy Young winner Black Snell who started Game 1 against Toronto and allowed no runs in 5.2 innings while striking out nine. Gerrit Cole was 7-3 2.84 ERA in the regular season but had a 4.96 ERA allowing five home runs in three starts against the Rays. There will be one huge difference in Cole's start in Game 1...Gary Sanchez the worst catcher in MLB history will NOT be behind the plate as he was in his three starts against Tampa. Cole's ERA is 3-runs lower when ANYONE but Sanchez is 'catching' (he actually doesn't catch the ball he mostly just retrieves it off the back stop). The fact that New York is such a strong favorite against the MLB team with the best record lends me to laying it. Take the NEW YORK YANKEES! |

With all the injuries growing The Heat have cooled off and LA is primed to sweep the series. Lebron as I said before is on a mission and will not be denied and along with Anthony Davis who has never been a winner in the pro ranks and came to LA for this sole purpose.

Seattle at Miami 1:00 ET Dolphins (+) over Seahawks- I don't mean to laugh because so many of those I know took the Cowboys last week against Seattle and were burned once again by late heroics by Russell Wilson who threw five more TD's giving him 14 in just three games. Now, Wilson travels East to play in Miami and he breaks that west to east crap as he is 8-0 SU and ATS in the ET zone. Now, that's been great for the Seahawks but their defense has allowed 1,292 yards passing more than any other team in the NFL. Miami meanwhile posted their first double-digit win in 39 games defeating Jacksonville 31-13 on last Thursday night, that gives the Dolphins four extra days and they will be healthy. Like I said before and the reason I stayed away from taking Dallas last week is that it is so hard getting past Russell Wilson as they are 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 road games and 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven as favorites. But, Seattle is only 1-6 ATS in the last seven meetings against the Dolphins and the Dolphins are 5-1 ATS in their last six home games and 4-1 ATS in their last five as dogs. Take MIAMI! |

Auburn at Georgia 7:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Tigers- Love the match-up and believe this is my strongest release of the college football season. It's being said that Georgia's quarterback position is not settled while Auburn is fixed with Bo Nix last year's SEC Freshman of the Year. (He's Over-rated!) The Bulldogs who are known for their ground game totaled just 121 yards at 2.9 per attempt but held Arkansas to 280 total yards in their (-27.5) 37-10 win. Georgia has won the last six meetings 6-0 SU and 6-0 ATS at home and are 13-3 ATS after a ATS loss and they are 17-8 ATS against teams with winning records. The Tigers may be 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games overall but one of those losses was to the Bulldogs last season and finally the favorite is 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take GEORGIA! |

St. Louis at San Diego 7:08 ET Cardinals over Padres- St. Louis gets the quick advantage in knowing who their starting pitcher is going to be and with Jack Flaherty (4-3, 4.90 ERA) on the hill and that's a good start as her is 1-0 with a 1.10 ERA against the Padres. The Cardinals may need him to go deep into the game as their bullpen gave up nine runs and nine hits in two innings work. With their No. 1 & 2 starters down and the 3 & 4 having pitched the past two days puts the Padres up against the wall. Yesterday's win was just the second for San Diego in the last 12 playoff meetings with the Cards but the Pods are 21-11 at home this season. History rules...take SAN DIEGO! |

It was gotten so bad that NYC's Mayor not only wanted to ban fans from going to the Stadium but he wanted to ban all players from entering ass well. Maybe that's a stretch the point is the Jets have been terrible and did start 0-4 last season before turning it around and winning six of their last eight. They need to suck it up and what be better than another hurting team. Gase inherited Sam Darnold and that might cuz his demise as he has threw a pick-six on his first toss. Denver will start give QB Brett Rypien his first career start and even if he is up against the Jets it is a difficult task for a first-timer. Take NEW YORK J-E-T-S! |

Fiers has gone 19-5 at home (at San Diego) since joining the A's while the White Sox are just 21-26 against right-handers this season.

Miami like Los Angeles has won 12 of 15 playoff games and will have to measure up to the bigger Lakers inside by being more physical. L.A. has scored 44-points per game in the paint shooting 71% both leagues highs by wide margins. The Heat will need for their outside shooters to be on the mark to compete and they will use a 2-3 to stack the paint but, it won''t matter as LeBron is still muttering about the 'disrespectful' MVP vote.

The A's who have not won a post season series since 2006 already face elimination and will send Chris Bassitt (5-2, 2.29 ERA) to the hill and he has some impressive stats. Bassitt finished the season allowing just one run in his last four starts covering 26.2 innings and he is 2-1 with a 3.04 ERA in four careers starts against the Pale Hose. Veteran lefty Dallas Keuchel is 6-6 against Oakland including 2-4 on the road and a 7-1 loss this season.

New York was cruising along in until a plethora of injuries took their once powerful lineup down and down hard. They are left with four starter hitting .200 or less. Cole was fantastic in last year's playoffs going 4-1 with a 1.72 ERA and a WHIP of 0.87 and is 2-1 with a 2.79 ERA against Cleveland.

Milwaukee at St. Louis 7:05 ET Brewers over Cardinals- St. Louis will be playing only 58 games two short of a full season of 60 and they need one more win to secure a playoff berth. So, needing one win they send Adam Wainwright (5-2, 3.05 ERA) to the hill and he has been victimized before at home in the last two weeks and this time it won't be his doing. Brandon Woodruff (2-5, 3.43) is measured to be the third hardest thrower in baseball and with 81 K's in 65 innings and with only 53 hits allowed he is showing it be, even without wins. Let's face it the Brewers didn't help him win games as weak hitting (team BA .225) and poor fielding did him in record wise. In a must game or they are out. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Army at Cincinnati 3:30 ET Bearcats (-) over Black Knights- Both of these clubs are ranked in the Top-25 but they have come from different directions. The Army ranked No. 22 was 5-8 last season and are 2-0 after beating powerhouses Middle Tennessee State and Louisiana-Monroe outscoring them 79-7. No. 16 Cincinnati is off of a pair of 11-win seasons and return 16 starters. The true reason the Cadets received a Top-25 ranking is because of a number of other conferences that haven't played yet. The Knights are 0-20 against ranked opponents. Army is 1-4 in their last five road games and 1-5 ATS against a team with a winning record. Bearcats 6-2 ATS in last eight home games.

Miami and Boston 8:30 ET Heat/Celtics- UNDER- I've had this series 'clocked' with the winning side in all four Eastern Final meetings. This time around Boston is facing elimination and the first thing they will do is get back to basics and that starts with defense. The Celtics are the club that is fighting for survival and respond to losses by going 6-1 Under after a straight-up loss and 12-5 UNDER in their last 17 overall. Miami has played to the UNDER in six of their last eight against teams with winning records. Take the UNDER! |

The Cubs are 3-7 in their last 10 games but will send Yu Darvish (7-3, 2.22 ERA) who is 2-1 versus the White Sox with 38 K's in 32 innings. The White Sox will start Dylan Cease (5-3, 3.52) who is 0-3 with a 4.71 ERA against the Cubs but they are 0-5 in their last five games against righty starters.

After taking a 2-0 lead over Denver when it looked as though the Nuggets couldn't handle the 'Lakesters' big two of Lebron James and Anthony Davis. But, this 'Mile-High City' club just doesn't quit and we have seen that as the recovered from 3-1 deficits against both Utah and the Clippers. LA has struggled withy Denver during the regular season going just 10-21 ATS in the last 31 meetings, but that is regular season action. Denver is 5-1 ATS in the Playoffs as an underdog. Still, one sure thing about these NBA Playoffs just when you think a team is 'done' they will bounce back.

All in good fun they say but the fun ends Thursday night as the Jaguars are a same favorite. Before the season began Jacksonville was considered one of the worst teams in the NFL and after a pair of games they are being touted by the same people that said 'they stink' two weeks ago. Miami is 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games overall and 7-2 ATS after a straight-up loss.

Boston and Miami 8:30 ET Heat (+) over Celtics- Okay, Miami is up 2-1 in games but the stats between the clubs are virtually dead even from points, to rebounds to assists and free throws. Then what will be the difference maker today...it's Jimmy Butler! Teams this deep in the playoffs should have positive trends and they both do. Boston is 23-8-1 ATS in their last 32 playoffs games although they are just 1-4 ATS in their last five in the Conference Finals. Miami is 10-2 ATS in the playoffs including their loss on Saturday and the Heat are an amazing 24-8-2 (75%) after a straight-up loss. Defense is the key as the Heat play it better. Take MIAMI! |

Gosh, I hate Jim O'Brien, no nothing to do with him personally I just mean his coaching and judgement during a game. Houston was pounded once again by Kansas City in their opener and now return home with a scatter arm Deshaun Watson at quarterback and little receiving talent. Baltimore...ah wins 38-6 over the Browns as Lamar Jackson threw for three TD's going 20 of 25 while rushing for 79 yards.

Boston vs Miami 8:30 ET Celtics over Heat- (ML or ATS)- The Celtics find themselves in deep do-do after blowing 17 and 14 point leads in Games 1 and 2. I don't want to say that they were crying in the locker room after the Game 2 loss but coach Brad Stevens had to be the grown-up in the room and met Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Jayson Tatum and Kemba Walker (who has been just terrible) and soothed their fragile egos. Miami has the 'Mojo' and has won 10 of 11 since the Playoffs started and it looks like they just don't have the time to fool around. The Heat are tough against the Bean-Towner's going 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Jimmy Butler is 'the' force that has to be reckoned with and if Steven's club will listen to him they will be able to balance off Butler and pray Kemba regains his touch. In a must situation I do not want lay more than 1-point (Play Money line). If is have to play it at -2.5 or -3 so be it. In baseball 'we' don't think too much of having to lay -140 so if you can get it under that price, I say go for it. Celts are 22-8-1 ATS in their last 31 playoff games as the favorite. The pressure is on and Boston must deliver or it's off to the links...A GREAT game to watch...take BOSTON! |

Minnesota at Chicago Cubs 8:15 ET Twins over Cubs- Sometimes you see a game that for whatever reason doesn't seem right. That's how I felt a first glance into this matchup. I mean Minnesota is not the same team away (11-16) from Target Field as they are 20-5 at home. The NL Central leading Cubs starting Alec (No-Hit) Mills (5-3, 3.93 ERA)who is making his his start since his historic outing against the Brewers, in his last two starts he has 15 shutout innings and just four hits allowed. With those 'numbers' and his team leading the division by 3-games he's pitching at home and he and the Cubs are underdogs to Michael Pineda (1-0, 3.57) and the Twins. I guess? Pineda is making his four start two good and last Sunday he was banged around a bit by the Indians. This time out he gets it right! Take MINNESOTA! |

The Cardinals should have revenge on their minds after getting destroyed 55-27 in Miami last season. The hurricanes were only 7-7 last season and torched the Louisville defense for six TD passes. Yet, Miami wasn't that good last year and have transfer D'Eriq King from Houston and his quick feet and passing remind many of Kyler Murray now with Arizona Cardinals. Miami is looking to rebuild their programs football reputation and it continues here. Take the HURRICANES! |

Denver is playing in their first conference Final since 2009 when they fell to the Lakers in six games. The Nuggets are 19-9 ATS in the last 28 meetings but LA is 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall.

Cincinnati has started to play better (if not too late) and are now 1-game under .500. Chicago will give rookie Jonathan Stiever (0-0, 2.45 ERA) will get his second career start while the Reds who has won four straight will send Tejay Antone (0-2, 2.76) to the mound and he has 37 strikeouts in just 29 innings while allowing just 17 hits.

Cincinnati at Cleveland 8:20 ET Browns (-) over Bengals- I can hear it now 'Don't do it...they stink, they are are clown show.' Yep all that is true (especially if you are thinking Odell BeckHAM)! Last season the Browns were the media's and public's dark horse choice and the failed miserably. After Sundays' 38-6 beating by Baltimore I believe many have 'supporters' already jumped ship in 2020. Cincinnati should have make winner of Joe Burrow but his teammates we must understand are losers and committing a penalty on what would have been a winning play and then missing the tying field goal on consecutive plays as that is what losers do. Now for Cleveland, think about the opening line in this game, it was -8. So, it's bet done to -6 and still might go lower because no one wants any part of the Browns. But, the point I want to make is Cleveland is favored my more points this week than they score in the entire game last week against the Ravens. Don't that make you question...why? Take CLEVELAND! |

St. Louis at Milwaukee 8:10 ET Brewers over Cardinals- I would consider using this side (Milwaukee) in a much 'higher' rated spot if not for the shit that is going on. To start with, I like the pitching matchup but, with this being a double-header you can never really be sure what you are going to get. Managers use two distinct and different line-ups to share playing time among the roster and you never really know who's playing which game. Also, I would always prefer to play my game first as things change after a win or loss and mid sets change game to game. If you can get this match-up in game one the Brewers are worth a shot against a fading Wainwright. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Sometimes it is a matter of numbers and how they swing. Runs have been scarce between these two hurlers and it might not get any better here as Rich Hill (1-1, 3.86) has allowed just 19 hits in 21 innings.

Western Kentucky under first year coach Tyson Helton brought his club from 3-9 in 2018 to 9-4 and a bowl win in 2019. At Louisville after Lamar Jackson left the Cardinals dropped to 2-10 and rebound under Scott Satterfield to 8-5 both clubs improved by six wins. Last season the Cardinal went to Nashville as a 11-point favorite and now at home after winning on the road 38-21 they come up the same number. I believe the oddsmaker is telling 'us' W. Ky has a shot. They are 6-0-1 ATS in the last seven road games and 36-16 in their last 52 as underdogs. Louisville is 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games but just 4-9 ATS as home favorites. Take the HILLTOPPERS! |

L.A. Lakers vs Houston 8:30 ET Rockets (+) over Lakers- Well, when I hear a team has 'no shot' and everyone has counted them out and are starting to look toward the next matchup funny things can happen. James Harden has been his usually playoff self which is so sub-par (just 2 field goals in Game 4). Houston hasn't changed much in recent seasons they will try and out-run you and out gun you and when they are 'on' they are tough to beat. The problems with shooting teams is the streaks they incur. Really no pressure here on Rockets most thinking they are already dead...Take HOUSTON! |

Boston vs Toronto 9:00 ET Raptors (+) over Celtics- The well balanced Boston Celtics in the back of their minds have to be thinking 'what if' that miracle shot that won Game 3 fell short. Instead of a commanding 3-0 lead the Celtics now find themselves 3-3 and in a do-or-die game. Kemba Walker had one of his worst nights of the season and still it took Toronto two overtimes to defeat Boston to tie the series. Karma is a bitch...take CLIPPERS! |

Cincinnati at St. Louis 8:15 ET Reds over Cardinals- Boy, I know that 'we' have had a rough 10 days with MLB but this one makes no sense what-so-ever. Can somebody explain to me how Adam Wainwright (4-0, 2.68 ERA) can be an underdog at home. Here is Cincinnati six games under .500 starting Luis Castillo (1-5, 3.95) and are favored on the road in St. Louis. He is 3-4 with a 4.29 ERA in 10 career starts against the Red Birds and Wainwright is 10-12 with a 5.14 ERA in 33 career starts against the Reds. The Cards are 36-17 against Cincy and have their 'best' on the mound and are a dog...'Don't Make Sense' to me...Take CINCINNATI! |

09-10-20 | Reds -128 v. Cubs | Top | 5-8 | Loss | -128 | 9 h 10 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Chicago Cubs- 8:15 ET Reds over Cubs- Two day's ago I got ambushed with the Reds as the Cubs prevailed 3-0 and after upsetting Yu Darvish yesterday I'm back with Cincinnati. This is mostly because of starter Sonny Gray (5-2, 3.19 ERA) and he is off one of his worst career appearances.allowing six runs against the Cardinals getting only two outs. Gray is 4-2 with a 2.38 ERA in seven career starts against Chicago with 50 K's in just 40 innings. The first-place Cubs have lost five of its last eight games and are 18-38 in their last 56 when underdogs. Take CINCINNATI! |
