11-19-20 | Cardinals v. Seahawks -3 | Top | 21-28 | Win | 100 | 26 h 34 m | Show |
Arizona at Seattle 8:20 ET Seahawks (-) over Cardinals- These two are in the middle of the 3-way log jam at the top of the NFC West with the Rams among the leaders. Four weeks ago the Cardinals came from 10 down with 6:44 left in the 4th quarter and scored three times to win in OT 37-34 and handed Seattle their first loss. They were 5-0 and Russell Wilson had been faultless but in the past four games he has committed 10 turnovers as the Seahawks have dropped 3-of-4. Arizona is coming off a miracle win over Buffalo and have impressive numbers as road underdogs going 8-1-2 ATS in their last 11 whereas the Hawks are 5-2 ATS as home favorites and 32-15-4 ATS after a straight up loss. The Cardinals have played well on the road so don't be surprised if they get the 'action.' Take SEATTLE! |

11-16-20 | Vikings v. Bears +3.5 | 19-13 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 53 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Chicago 8:15 ET Bears (+) over Vikings- To start with I don't understand how Minnesota has been made this kind of favorite on the road against a team that has a better overall record. Chicago has dropped three straight and have fallen 5-1 and the division lead to trailing Green Bay by two full games. The Vikings at 3-5 have posted wins over Detroit and the Packers have brought them back in contention after a 1-5 start. The Bears have had trouble scoring and coach Nagy has handed the play-calling duties to offensive coordinator Bill Lazor and that can't hurt. The home teams have dominated this series going 25-10 ATS in the last 35 meetings and the Bears are 14-3 ATS in the last 17 meetings as hosts. Take CHICAGO! |

11-15-20 | Ravens v. Patriots +7.5 | 17-23 | Win | 100 | 21 h 19 m | Show | |
Baltimore at New England 8:20 ET Patriots (+) over Ravens- Listen, I understand, this is a game that you, we, me anyone of 'us' probably could care less about with the stumbling fumbling falling Cam Newtown trying to revive a fading franchise. Baltimore of course tricked most of the 'wiseguys' who piled on the Colts last week as the Ravens got the gold winning 24-10. The last time these two met (11/03/19) Lamar Jackson was 'Newton like' rushing for a pair of TD's and passing another in an easy 37-20 win handing the New England c their first loss of the season. Newtown has failed to throw a TD pass in four consecutive games as New England without any speed wide outs to speak of will try and control the game on the ground. This one should play close. Take the PATRIOTS! |

11-15-20 | 49ers +10 v. Saints | 13-27 | Loss | -118 | 17 h 6 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' NFC Vegas Hotline Winner San Francisco at New Orleans 4:25 ET 49ers (+) over Saints- Well, the Saints came marching in and rolled into Tampa Bay and out with after thrashing the Buccaneers. It wasn't even a game! The Bucc's had a total of five rushing attempts with only four by running backs while New Orleans forced Tom Brady to play his first ever game with multiple interceptions without a TD pass. San Francisco is a mess with a rash of injuries and load of positive COVID results they have been very inconsistent. Nick Mullins is making his fourth start at QB and has is 68.4% for 1,143 yards and five TD's and five int's. Despite what going on SF has the No. 7 ranked Defense allowing just 324 yards and surprising their offense has played steady and ranked No. 13 with 374 yards a game. New Orleans should come back to the pack after a near perfect game against Tampa and the Niners should rebound from losses to Seattle and Green Bay. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

11-15-20 | Seahawks v. Rams -2 | Top | 16-23 | Win | 100 | 18 h 53 m | Show |
Seattle at L.A. Rams 4:05 ET Rams over Seahawks- Now, that we've broken the Russell Wilson curse we shall ride the wave and continue building our bankroll. Last week 'we' played Buffalo over the Seahawks and were rewarded as the porous Seattle defense was drilled giving up 44 points and finished with the No. 32 ranked 'D' which is allowing 456 yards per game (that's the average folks). Yet, they are 6-2 with a 1-game lead over the Rams in the West as LA licks their wounds from their loss at Miami with a bye week and will be ready for this division game. Although Seattle is 9-2 ATS in their last 11 as road dogs they are only 2-6 ATS in their last eight games at LA. Rams have ability to bounce back and are 8-1 ATSA following a loss and 16-5-1 ATS against the NFC to boot. Take L.A. RAMS! |

11-15-20 | Chargers +2 v. Dolphins | 21-29 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 25 m | Show | |
L.A. Chargers at Miami 4:05 ET Chargers over Dolphins- While writing down the opening lines this one didn't pass the smell test as the home 5-3 (6-2 ATS) Dolphins were favored by less than a field goal against the 2-6 Chargers who have won one of their last six. We all know that Miami has been pointing lasers into opponents eyes when they are trying to catch punts and stuff because of the way they score touchdowns on special teams and defense is amazing. They defeated the Rams by 10 and were out-gained by 326 yards and as a matter of fact they have gained more yardage than their opposition only twice, against the Jets of course and when they took apart a decimated 49ers team. L.A. meanwhile puts up great stats as Justin Herbert leads the NFL's No. 2 offense into Miami. The Chargers have been a money machine as dogs on the road going 34-15 ATS in their last 49. Take the LA CHARGERS! |

11-15-20 | Broncos +4 v. Raiders | 12-37 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 37 m | Show | |
Chip's 'Guaranteed' AFC Rivalry Winner Denver at L.V. Raiders 4:05 ET Broncos (+) over Raiders- My first thoughts on this game is 'John Gruden.' He has the Raiders playing a fundamentally sound brand of football looking to control the ball with his capable and veteran quarterback Derek Carr although he starting offensive line has been together for 10 total plays this season. The virus has affected Las Vegas an it hit their offensive line the hardest as two more OL went down this week making six on the season. Denver started 0-2 but has gone 3-2 since with a loss coming last week at Atlanta and they are 6-0 ATS after a straight-up loss. Broncos are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games but are 0-5 ATS in the last five meetings. But, the Raiders are 5-16 ATS following a SU win. Take DENVER! |

11-15-20 | Bills v. Cardinals -2.5 | Top | 30-32 | Loss | -105 | 18 h 6 m | Show |
Buffalo at Arizona 4:05 ET Cardinals over Bills- Buffalo at 7-2 leads the AFC East and is off a huge home win over Seattle 44-34 where Josh Allen out-passed Russell Wilson 386 to 362. Last week Arizona was playing hosts to Miami and although they out-gained the Dolphins by 150 yards they lost 34-31 as a 6-point favorite. The Bills are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six road games and the improving Cardinals are 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall. But, Allen is not the answer today, it's Kyler Murray who has passed for 16 TD's and ran for eight more. I noted how many yards the Seahawks threw for last week because Arizona has the No. 1 NFL offense averaging 422 yards per game. They will exploit the Bills defense which surrenders 365 YPG. Take ARIZONA! |

11-14-20 | Oregon State +14 v. Washington | 21-27 | Win | 100 | 25 h 4 m | Show | |
Oregon State at Washington 11:00 ET Beavers (+) over Huskies- I always feel that a team with a game under their belt is in better position than a team playing it's opening game, although this give a chance to view opponents game film. There an interesting storyline concerning the coaches as the Beavers head coach Jonathan Smith was Washington's OC who raised their scoring over 5-points per game over a four year span and the Huskies offense slipped back to 26 points after his departure. Oregon State on the rise is 7-0 ATS in last seven as road dogs and 9-3 ATS in their last 12 overall. Washington is just 2-7 ATS as hosts in the last nine meetings. Take OREGON STATE! |

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! |

11-14-20 | Oregon v. Washington State +10.5 | 43-29 | Loss | -105 | 21 h 4 m | Show | |
Oregon at Washington State 7:00 ET Cougars (+) over Ducks- Oregon who is favored to win the Pac-12 conference and go off to a quick start out-classing Stanford for a convincing 35-14 win while the Cougars opened their season with a 38-28 at Oregon State as Freshman Jayden de Laura accounted for three TD in his college debut. The Ducks won last year's meetings 37-35 ending a four game losing streak in the series. Wazzu is 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings including 5-0 ATS as hosts and are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 at home overall. Take WASHINGTON STATE! |

11-14-20 | TCU +3 v. West Virginia | 6-24 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 21 m | Show | |
Texas Christian at West Virginia 12:00 ET Horned Frogs (+) over Mountaineers- We are 4-0 ATS with and against West Virginia this season winning with them twice when at home and twice against them when they were on the road and as a matter of fact they are 6-0-1 ATS as home favorites while struggling on the road. TCU at 3-3 SU is 4-2 ATS with a win over Texas and are looking for revenge for last season's home 20-17 loss to the Mountaineers. TCU is 15-7 ATS in their last 22 games as road underdogs and will be ready here. Take TEXAS CHRISTIAN! |

11-14-20 | Miami-FL v. Virginia Tech -125 | 25-24 | Loss | -125 | 16 h 16 m | Show | |
Miami-Fl at Virginia Tech 12:00 ET Hokies over Hurricanes- This is the second consecutive week that the unranked Hokies have been favored over a ranked team. Last week they were 17-point favorites over No. 22 Liberty and lost the game outright 38-35 and this week they are favored over No. 9 Miami-Fl. The Hurricanes are 6-1 SU and are led by QB D'Eriq King who has 16 TD passes and only four interceptions while passing for 262 yards per game. Despite a rash of injuries to Tech they remain the favorite as QB Hendon Hooker accounted for 373 of the Hokies 418 yards against Liberty and was at the helm in last season's 42-35 win over the Canes. Note that Virginia Tech is 5-1 ATS in their last six home games and the favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings while Miami is just 1-4 ATS in their last five road games. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |

11-14-20 | Penn State v. Nebraska +3.5 | 23-30 | Win | 100 | 16 h 16 m | Show | |
Penn State at Nebraska 12:00 ET Cornhuskers (+) over Nittany Lions- Do you believe it? Here it is November 14 and two of the nation's most revered and storied football programs are winless at this date. Penn State got off to a rocky start losing to Indiana in OT as they committed 10 penalties, missed three field goal attempts and had three turnovers while holding the Hoosiers to 31 yards rushing. The next week they were beaten soundly by Ohio State 38-25 and were out-gained by 201 yards and last week they pushed around Maryland but lost but committed three more turnovers and missed again at their field goal attempt. The Lions have not been a good team on a rebound as they are 6-18-2 ATS after a SU loss and 1-5 ATS in their last six games as favorites. There is not many positives about Nebraska that can be said as they are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall and 6-18-2 ATS in their last 26 home games and 1-7 ATS as home underdogs. Penn State has been headed 'south' ever since James Franklin took the coaching job and they fail here. Take NEBRASKA! |

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! |

11-12-20 | Colorado State +14 v. Boise State | 21-52 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
Colorado State at Boise State 8:00 ET Rams (+) over Broncos- Boise has quarterback issues and is down to the 3rd string with freshman Cade Fennegan running the offense against BYU as starter Hank Bachmeier and USC transfer Jack Sears (21-of-24) were sidelined. Colorado State returned to their 2019 starter at QB as Patrick O'Brien led the Rams to a win over Wyoming. Rams coach Mike Bobo is 3-1 ATS in the last four meetings against the Broncos and they are 13-5 ATS on the road against teams with winning records. Take COLORADO STATE! |

11-09-20 | Patriots -9.5 v. Jets | 30-27 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |
New England at New York Jets 8:15 ET Jets (+) over Patriots- They call the NFC East the 'Least' but the AFC isn't far ahead as these two combatants have lost 12 straight games between them. New England has dropped four straight and haven't lost five straight since 1995 but still have the No. 12 scoring defense and that plays into Belichick's hands. New York is dead last in points scored, passing yards and total yards and lost twice to the Pats last season by a combined 63-14 and has won just seven of the past 36 meetings. Cam Newton leads the Patriots in rushing and his counterpart for the Jets Sam Darnold did not practice Thursday as his sore shoulder has limited his playing time. Take NEW YORK! |

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 | Raiders v. Chargers | 31-26 | Loss | -105 | 23 h 54 m | Show | |
Las Vegas at L.A. Chargers 4:05 ET Chargers over Raiders- Las Vegas (that still seems a bit odd) made a nice recovery after their second half collapse against Tampa Bay while the Chargers were folding in the final minutes in their 31-30 loss at Denver. Los Angeles was favored on the road in that one and was the fourth double-digit lead that they have blown this season although they are 5-2 ATS despite that loss. The Chargers have the No. 2 offense at 417 yards per game and if we look at any trends from previous seasons it would turn our head so 'we' won't look. But, LA wins here. Take the CHARGERS! |
|||||||
11-08-20 | Seahawks v. Bills +3 | 34-44 | Win | 100 | 20 h 55 m | Show | |
Seattle at Buffalo 1:00 ET Bills (+) over Seahawks- I've talked a lot about this game and not not all about my nemesis Russell Wilson (I'll get to him) but it is about Seattle's defense or lack there of as they ranked dead last No. 32 in total yards and yet are 6-1 leading the NFC West. He's where that QB comes into play as his efficiency level is off the charts. The Bills started the season fast but have come back to the pack a bit going 2-2 SU but 0-4 ATS in their last four games and they are 0-4 ATS in their last four as home underdogs while Seattle is 13-5-1 ATS on the road and 7-3-1 ATS as favorites. Maybe so, but this is not a good spot especially with running backs Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde out. Take BUFFALO! |

11-08-20 | Panthers +10.5 v. Chiefs | 31-33 | Win | 100 | 20 h 53 m | Show | |
Carolina at Kansas City 1:00 ET Panthers (+) over Chiefs- Kansas City at 7-1 is running away from the rest of the AFC West already with a 2.5-game lead over the Raiders with everyone else in the Division below .500. After a bye week, oops the Chiefs did face the Jets and flew higher with five touchdowns through the air. Usually, the first thing you think of about KC is their offense but, there defense is top-10 and they are No. 3 in points allowed with 19. Carolina has dropped their last three and really got 'hosed' by officials in their Thursday night loss to Atlanta and after 11 days off they should be chomping the bit and ready to go along with Christian McCaffrey who returns today. The Panthers can be competitive as they are 4-0 ATS under Matt Rhule and Carolina rules the points here. Take the PANTHERS! |

11-08-20 | Giants v. Washington Football Team -2.5 | 23-20 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 51 m | Show | |
New York Giants at Washington 1:00 ET Redskins (-) over Giants- Pay-back can be a bitch! That's what the Giants will learn on Sunday as DC Swampers gain a huge measure of revenge for the 22-21 loss when their 2-point attempt was stopped on the final play. Although New York is 5-3 ATS they failed to cover in their lone win and are off a pair of tough prime-time losses to Philly and Tampa Bay 22-21 and 25-23. Washington has had two weeks to prepare and when last seen scalping the Cowboys 25-3. Ron Rivera has made his choice and Kyle Allen is his quarterback and is leading the charge while Dwayne Haskins Jr. is ordering a moving van. Giants won't be able to recover emotionally from those prime time losses and the static that is happening off the field. Take WASHINGTON! |

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 | Vanderbilt v. Mississippi State -18 | 17-24 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 25 m | Show | |
Vanderbilt at Mississippi State 3:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Commodores- I've telling anyone who would listen that the SEC is lucky so many conferences haven't played because it is a terribly weak conference. After all Alabama is favored by an average 33 points and they keep 'covering. And these are toe of the worst. Okay so Vandy 0-4 SU, 1-3 ATS hasn't played the Tide yet but Mississippi State has, last week and they didn't score a point 41-0. Their last four games they scored the Bulldogs have scored 0, 14, 2, 14 and after getting shut out last week they are a 19-point favorite and they haven't scored anything close to that much less covering a number that huge. The Commodores are lost at sea as far as I'm thinking and they really can't last at all as they are 4-14 ATS in their last 18 overall and 7-19 ATS as underdogs. Bulldogs are 6-2 ATS in L-8 as home favorites and 4-1 ATS in last five against Vanderbilt. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

11-07-20 | Minnesota v. Illinois +7 | 41-14 | Loss | -102 | 18 h 24 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Illinois 3:30 ET Illini (+) over Golden Gophers- When the Big Ten season opened Minnesota was considered a strong contender after last season's performance but are 0-2 after getting pushed around by Michigan and then blew a 21-point fourth quarter lead to Maryland and lost 45-44 after a missed extra-point. Illinois is also 0-2 as they were destroyed by Wisconsin in their opener 45-7 and then were defeated by Purdue 31-24 allowing 49 of 56 passing attempts to be completed this season. The Illini have yet to force a turnover allowing 443 yards per games still better by almost 150 yards better than the Golden Gopher defense which allows 576 yards a game. Take ILLINOIS! |

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! |

11-07-20 | Liberty v. Virginia Tech -16.5 | 38-35 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 47 m | Show | |
Liberty at Virginia Tech 12:00 ET Hokies (-) over Flames- We have seen this before this season where an unranked team Virginia Tech is favored against an undefeated ranked team. Liberty enter this fray No. 25 while the Hokies who have had COVID issues are at full strength and glad to be on the field. As I said last week W.Virginia unranked was favored over ranked Kansas State and the Mountaineers won for us and that was the third time this season that we took advantage of that situation. These two met in 2016 and VT as a 31-point favorite won 36-13 holding the Flames to 160 total yards. Now, I expect Liberty to do better than that this time but Tech knows who they are playing. Liberty has out-gained every opponent playing a bunch of dregs and coach Hugh Freeze has stated 'No one has stopped us yet'...till now. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |

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! |

San Jose State at San Diego State 9:00 ET Spartans (+) over Aztecs- Oh yes, SD State has been very impressive in their two victories defeating UNLV 34-6 and Utah State 38-7. The Aztecs have the nation's No. 1 ranked defense allowing just 200 yards per games as they out-gained those two opponents by 597 yards, but they have faced a pair of the Mountain West dregs. San Jose State has surprised Air Force and New Mexico and is averaging 354 yards a game passing and will be the first decent offense that SDS will be facing. The Spartans have struggled against the Aztecs going 1-6 ATS in the last seven meetings but are a stellar 14-5-1 ATS in their last 20 conference games. Keeping it close...take SAN JOSE STATE! |

Miami-Fl at N.C. State 7:30 ET Wolfpack (+) over Hurricanes- Miami-Fl has had two weeks to bask in the South Florida sun and gloat about their 5-1 record and two-game winning steak. NC State has also had two weeks to get ready and they are hurting off a beating at the hands of North Carolina and now have to deal with the cocky and overconfident Hurricanes. The Wolfpack at 4-2 have faced four ranked teams and believe that their 3-3-5 defense can stifle Miami quarterback D'Eric King. The Canes who are improving from recent editions are just 1-4 ATS last-5 as road favorites while the Pack is a miserable 3-10 ATS last-13 as underdogs but a fabulous 19-7 after a bye week. Take NORTH CAROLINA 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! |

11-05-20 | Packers v. 49ers +7.5 | 34-17 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 13 m | Show | |
49ers (+) over Packers- I was so looking forward to this matchup for numerous reasons but the physical condition of both these clubs leaves so much talent on the sidelines. San Francisco appears to be hurt most with quarterback Jimmy 'Crap'-polo' out and tight end Georgia Kittle going down last week to go along with a plethora of other injuries. Although these two are in different divisions they have played each other in each of the past three seasons with the Niners going 2-1 SU and 3-0 ATS. Last January San Fran man-handled the Pacers in the NFL Championship game 37-20 when they took a 27-0 halftime lead which put them in the Super Bowl. Green Bay was held to 62 yards rushing in that one and this week they most likely will be without their top running back Aaron Jones.

Chip's 'Stand-Alone' WINS AGAIN! Dallas at Philadelphia 8:20 ET Cowboys (+) over Eagles- Now, it seems the Cowboys have a legitimate excuse for not winning with Dak Prescott and back-up Andy Dalton out due to injuries but a win here would vault them into first place in the NFC Least. Dallas will be starting Ben DiNucci at QB who was drafted at 231 overall in round 11 from James Madison after three seasons with U. Pittsburgh. The Eagles lead the division virtual their improbable 22-21 win over the Giants last Thursday otherwise have little to brag about. Philly is 0-5 ATS as home favorites and 2-9 ATS against team at home with a losing record while Dallas is 0-7 ATS this season alone. But, the 'Boys are 6-2 ATS their last eight in Philadelphia and 13-4 ATS versus the NFC East. In a tough one to bet...take DALLAS! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' Power Play Winner L.A Chargers at Denver 4:05 ET Broncos (+) over Chargers- There was a time when playing in Denver's Mile High Stadium was a daunting task but, as of now the Broncos are 0-3 straight-up with just an opening week 'back-door' cover against the Titans have them 1-2 ATS. Los Angeles (still trying to get used to that) had dropped four straight before storming back with 3-TD's in the final 15-minutes to win and cover against the Jaguars in a game where they had almost 200 yard advantage. Both clubs are 2-4 with the Broncos losses to Tennessee, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay and Kansas City...guess what all division leaders and a combined 22-4 straight-up. Take DENVER! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' AFC Megabucks Winner Pittsburgh at Baltimore 1:00 ET Ravens (-) over Steelers- Pittsburgh is the last unbeaten team (6-0) in the NFL and I believe the '72 Dolphins (14-0) will be popping corks before the weekend is over! I watched the Steelers/Titans game last week and man that Ben Roethlisberger is one tough SOB and he still runs an offense with precision converting 13 of 18 third-down opportunities. He's aided by the No. 1 defense both in yards and points allowed. Last week the face the leagues number rushing team and shut the Titans down and now this week they once again face the NFL's leading rushing team in Baltimore. The Ravens who have had two weeks to prepare and I'm sure watched every play of their games last week now possess the No. 1 rushing attack at 164 per game. Pittsburgh has a NFL best 26 sacks but might find Lamar Jackson difficult to trap behind the line of scrimmage. This won't be easy but hyey you never really can tell as the Steelers travel well goin 8-2 ATS as road dogs and 20-7-2- ATS in their last 29 overall as underdogs. Now, I can point out that the 'Black Birds' are just 5-12 in their ;last 157 as home favorites but they are 7-3-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings. I love the spot as Pitt comes off big win at Tennessee and Ravens have extra week...take BALTIMORE! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NFL Money Game Winner Minnesota at Green Bay 1:00 ET Vikings (+) over Packers- Oh man, has Aaron Rogers become my new nemesis replacing Russell Wilson? Maybe not, we are 1-3 ATS 'against' the future HOF. Minnesota, will try and counter the Packers QB with 'How do you like me now' Kirk Cousins who leads the NFL with 10 interceptions. The Vikings are No. 30 when it comes to turnover at minus-7 while Green Bay is plus+2 including one in the season opener at Minnesota a 43-34 Packers win. The Pack is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings at home but here is the key for me. The Vikings are 29-11 ATS after back-to-back losses including 7-1 ATS as dogs. Take MINNESOTA! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' AFC Rivalry Winner New England at Buffalo 1:00 ET Patriots (+) over Bills- It is incredible how much respect the odds-maker have for these broken down Patriots who were totally pushed around by the 49ers. Really, Buffalo leads the AFC East with a 2.5-game edge over New England and the 'price' is way below where it belongs. With the injuries and defections and COVID player losses the 'line' remains stable. The history of this series most likely is the biggest factor as the Patriots are 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meeting in Buffalo and the Bills are 5-13 ATS as home favorites in the series! Cam Newton has all be said 'maybe I can't play anymore' but he's going to be at his best Sunday. Take NEW ENGLAND! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' Major Shocker Winner Indianapolis at Detroit 1:00 ET Lions (+) over Colts- My first thoughts when seeing this matchup was that I wanted little to do with it. Of course as the week move forward and I gather information a storyline creeps into your head. The Colts are 4-2 and yet I feel that they have been less than impressive and maybe with Rivers now pitching for them that I expected too much. Indianapolis has the No.2 defense but that has been hampered by their woeful rushing game a league low 3.6 YPC with only 98 yards on the ground per game. Detroit showed me some I didn't know they had in them, a late drive and win led by Matt Stafford. I've never really been a big fan of the 12-year (that's right 12-years and I'm still waiting) who has let me down in spots like this too many time as the :Lions are 4-9 ATS in their last 14 games as underdogs and 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games. The best thing that they have going on the other side of the ball is that the Colts have covered just once in their last six road games. Somehow, DETROIT! |

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! |

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! |

Ohio State at Penn State 7:30 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Buckeyes- Oh, how I should love this game and may still use it as a Best Bet but I have a concern about the Nittany Lions running game as Noah Cain sustained a season ending injury and he was replacing last season's leading rusher Journey brown who has been ruled out for the year. Penn State lost to Indiana in overtime last week but you wouldn't know it if you only saw the box score as they out-rushed the Hoosiers 250 yards to 41. But, the turned the ball over three times and missed three field goals. Ohio State was invincible last week crushing Nebraska 52-17 as Justin Field went 20-21 for 276 yards and two TD's passing and one running. The Buckeyes will find it a little tougher going this week on offense. Take PENN STATE! |

10-31-20 | Boise State v. Air Force +14 | 49-30 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 42 m | Show | |
Boise State at Air Force 6:00 ET Falcons (+) over Broncos- Boise State did their thing at home on dizzying blue carpet that makes me nuts easily taking apart Utah State who looks to have returned to prior level of play which is very low. Air Force opened the season by sinking the Navy 40-7 on Oct. 3 and then lost their edge waiting three weeks before getting bet by San Jose 17-6. The blue turf helps as as Broncos are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six road games and 1-3-1 ATS as road favorites and are 2-5-1 ATS in the last eight meetings. Add the home team is 3-0-1 ATS last four meets and the Falcons are 9-2-1 ATS as home underdogs. Take AIR FORCE! |

Virginia Tech at Louisville 4:00 ET Hokies (-) over Cardinals- I like this side I really do but Virginia Tech has yet to play a game at full strength and here they come up a favorite on the road against a hungry Louisville team that broke a four-game losing streak by pummeling Florida State 48-16. The Hokies fell at wake Forest 23-16 last week out-gaining the Deacons by over 120 yards and have out-gained opponents in four of five games. I question why Tech is a favorite on the road as they are 7-24 ATS in their last 31 games as road favorites and Louisville is 5-1 ATS in their last six home games but 6-16 ATS in their last 22 as home underdogs and a miserable 6-20-1 ATS against teams with a winning record.

Texas at Oklahoma State 4:00 ET Longhorns (+) over Cowboys- So, Oklahoma State is ranked No. 6 and now they host their nemesis from the north a Texas team that was dropped from the rankings which once had them at No. 8. Mike Gungy has his Cowboys defense ranked No. 4 allowing just 12 points a game. While despite their two losses the Longhorns have averaged 45 points per game. Texas dominated the series early winning 22 of the first 24 but O.K. State has won seven of the last 10 and four straight before the Longhorns 36-30 win in Austin last year. Cowboys on up tick the last two seasons going 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games overall. I don't know if they have enough as the visitor is 10-3 ATS in the last 13 meetings. Take TEXAS! |

They have surrendered 49, 37, 27, 73 and 48 points in their last five games and average of 46.8 points per game. Notre Dame of course just keeps rolling along and at 5-0 they have the No. 9 ranked defense allowing just 273 yards a game but have not faced a team with a winning record and their opponents are a combined 8-22. Tech gave the ball away their first three possessions last week at Boston College and were never in it after getting crushed the previous week 73-7 by Clemson. They come ready against the over-rated Irish. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

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! |

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.

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! |

Chicago lost to the Colts 19-11 and defeated Tampa Bay 20-19 and they have done it with defense allowing just 337 yards a game while the Rams are even better allowing just 318 yards per game. Los Angeles is 4-0 against the NFL East and are 0-2 against teams with winning records losing to the Niners and Bills. Although Chicago is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings the home team is 4-1 in the last five meetings. The price has risen as the Bears have had five starters miss practicing this week while the Rams are relatively healthy with no major injury issues. LA meets the challenge tonight. Take the RAMS! |

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.

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! |

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! |

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! |

West Virginia at Texas Tech 5:30 ET Red Raiders (+) over Mountaineers- Sometimes it's just a way it falls and I have to believe the Red Raiders are in position to pick up a win and the Mountaineers are likely to fall. West Virginia leads the nation in total defense allowing 240.3 yards and just 2.7 per rushing attempt. Changes for Texas Tech as they were pushed around by 'our' Power Play winner Iowa State and they will be starting junior Henry Colombi who hasn't started a game since high school. But, was recruited at Utah State with this current Red Raiders coaching staff and should be able to run the offense without difficulty. Take TEXAS TECH! |

Both clubs coming off terrible beatings where Georgia Tech as destroyed by No.1 Clemson 73-7 the worst school in school history. The Eagles were downed by Virginia Tech 40-14 turning the ball over five times and surrendering 350 yards on the ground. The Yellow Jackets average 196 yards on the ground even after a game against Clemson's 'D' and if you can't stop the run you can't stop the 'Engineers' offense.

Alabama is 13-0 against Tennessee since 2007 when Saban took charge. The Crimson just blew out Georgia in the final 20 minutes forcing three int's on three straight possessions scoring behind Mac jones who is at 78% and 380 yards per game passing. 'Bama has had a pair of blowout wins at home a pair of ATS losses on the road against Mississippi and Missouri as they are 2-5 ATS in last seven as road favorites are 1-8 ATS following an ATS win.

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.

N.C.

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! |

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.

Dallas as bad as they have looked have the No. 1 offense (488 yards per), but without Prescott what will it matter if the 'Boys' defense continues to tackle like 'Cowgirls' as there're defense is ranked No 27 in yards and dead last is points allowed 180 in five games. Look for Ezekiel Elliot to be the focus of the refreshed Cowboys offense. Andy Dalton is capable and he is surrounded by talent and if he can keep from turning the ball over the 'Boys around hime will do enough. Take DALLAS! |

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.

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! |

10-18-20 | Packers v. Bucs +1.5 | Top | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 22 h 8 m | Show |
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! |

Atlanta (0-5) at Minnesota (1-4) 1:00 ET Falcons (+) over Vikings- These two are a combined 1-9 SU but that doesn't mean 'we' can't fine a winner here. The blackmailing of Arthur Blake that kept Dan Quinn working in Atlanta is over and the Falcons start a new regime under Raheem Morris the 2020 defensive coordinator. Under his tutelage the Falcons are ranked 31st in total defense and scoring defense. His reward for such ineptitude is to be promoted to Head Coach...go figure! Falcons were praying +COIVD but alas a false positive. No Cook NFL's leading rusher and Cousins can't pick-up the slack! By the Numbers: Falcons are 5-1 ATS as road dogs, the dog is 4-1-1 L-6 meetings. Vikings are 38-17-1 ATS at home and 2-5 ATS as favorites L-7. Take ATLANTA! |

Houston (1-4) at Tennessee (4-0) 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Titans- How is that for responding to COVID-19...'play through it' as the Titans did having one practice over 12 days, a team who had 23 +tests and crushed Buffalo on Tuesday 42-16 in a dominating win. Houston posted its 1st win without that Bill O'Brien guy as they can be nothing but better without him as coach. But hey, Romeo Crennel is there. The pressure is on the Texans as the players had their 'coup' and it worked out of the box. Now, they must find a way to contain Ryan Tannehill who in 12-4 16 starts 117.5 rating with the Titans with 31 TS's and 7 Ints. Titans should have bit of a let-down here and Texans are 12-5-1 ATS last 18 meetings. By the Numbers: HT 4-13 ATS on Rd vs winning teams, 0-5 L-5 as dogs, UN 13-6 after SU win. TN 3-7-1 ATS L-11 at Hm, 15-33-3 vs losing teams, OV 8-2 as Fav, OV 9-4 L-13 vs AFC. Take HOUSTON! |

Baltimore (4-1) at Philadelphia (1-3-1) 1:00 ET Eagles (+) over Ravens- Baltimore has a habit of beating up on the little guys as they did last week against the Bengals allowing just 12 FD's and 200 total yards. Philly is laden with injuries and their offense which averages just 322 yards a game is dead last in turnovers with 11. Ravens are #1 in fewest points allowed surrendering 15.2-points per-game and the Eagles can't run they must I expect something freaky, unexplainable to happen and it's...On the road to victory! Fly, Eagles, Fly! By the Numbers: Eagles a dismal 5-12 as home dog and 1-7 in L-8 at home. UN 19-7 L-26 Hm, UN 12-2 L-14 Hm vs winning record. Balt- UN 6-1 L-7 Hm Fav. Ravens 6-1 ATS L-7, and 12-4 ATS in L-16 overall. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

10-17-20 | Georgia +5 v. Alabama | 24-41 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 59 m | Show | |
Georgia at Alabama 8:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Crimson Tide- I loved this matchup the moment I saw it but it has been tinted with Nick Saban missing from the sidelines but that isn't necessarily a bad thing as the Tide have failed in four of their last six head-to-heads for No.1 and he was out-coached badly twice. Both teams are 3-0 with No. 2 Alabama led by NCAA passing leader Matt Jones with a rating of 220.3 (66-of-83) with 8 TD's and only 1 Int. No. 3 Georgia is working their 4th QB choice in a 5'10” junior Steton Bennett who has the No.1 rushing defense (38-yards pg) behind him to establish field position. Bulldogs are 5-1 ATS as underdogs and 17-5 ATS L-22 on the road against teams with a winning record and are 6-2 ATS the last-8. Tide 6-0 ATS after ATS loss. Defense RULES! Take GEORGIA! |

Boston College at Virginia Tech 8:00 ET Hokies (-) over Eagles- Oh boy, boy oh boy...TAKE VIRGINIA TECH. I couldn't keep it 'in' any longer. 'We' played 'against' the Hokies last week as they were dominated by North Carolina and everyone 'loved' them and now this week they are 'poison.' Look at this 'price', silly isn't after all Boston College (3-1) gave the North Carolina all they could handle before falling 26-22 (VHL winner) and the Hokies were blown out by the Tar Heels 56-45 last week. It sets up for me...how about you! VT had players affected by the virus (23 total) but still managed a 45-24 win over NC State with 15 players absent. Kansas transfer running back Khalil Herbert averages 10.4 yards per carry and 150 yards a game for the Gobblers. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |

North Carolina at Florida State 7:30 ET Seminoles (+) over Tar Heels- Lordy, how the Tar Heels (3-0) have been good to 'us' as 'we' are 3-0 ATS in their three games. Florida State is in chaos (1-3) as they have yet to defeat an FBS school this season but 'covered' their first game last week (+21) 26-42 against Notre Dame. They did show some offensive progress as they totaled 405 yards their season high other than beating Jacksonville State. North Carolina No. 5 had 656 total yards against Virginia Tech last week and are brimming with confidence as a double-digit broad favorite. As good as the Heels are and have looked they will come back to the pack this week and the Seminoles who will start Louisville transfer Jordan Travis are improving will get the cash here. Carolina coach Mack Brown a FSU alumnus is 0-9 lifetime against the Seminoles. Take FLORIDA STATE! |

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! |

10-17-20 | Central Florida v. Memphis +3 | 49-50 | Win | 100 | 18 h 8 m | Show | |
Central Florida at Memphis 3:30 ET Tigers (+) over Panthers- Memphis (1-1) won the first meeting between these two and haven't won since losing 12 straight meetings. Central Florida (2-1) is favored on the road at Memphis (1-1) and I guess I shouldn't be surprised as they have been favored in their last 13 games going 4-9 ATS and are 0-4 ATS their last four in Memphis.The Tigers had last week off and are 20-8 ATS after bye weeks ands are 13-6-1 ATS in their last 20 home games. Panthers QB Dillon Gabriel has NFL written all over him has nine TD's and only two Int's but experienced Memphis QB Brady White is third on Tigers career passing list with 7,970 yards. Take MEMPHIS! |

10-16-20 | BYU v. Houston +5 | Top | 43-26 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 43 m | Show |
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! |

10-16-20 | SMU v. Tulane +6.5 | 37-34 | Win | 100 | 7 h 16 m | Show | |
SMU at Tulane 6:00 ET Green Wave (+) over Mustangs- Yeah sure, the Green Wave. After building their half-time 24-7 lead against Houston last Friday, I saw a 'greed wave' of cash turn into ebb tide as 'our' money went south as they were crushed 42-7 in the second half. No.17 SMU is 4-0 and two weeks ago defeated the AAC conference champions Memphis 30-27 led by Texas transfer Shane Buechele was 32 of 46 for 474 yards and is 14-3 as an FBS starter. The Mustangs lost three offensive cogs a pair of top receivers and a starting running back and that hurts the No. 4 ranked offense. Tulane also lost a 24-0 halftime lead against Navy and were out-gained by Houston 476-211. Ponies are just 2-6 ATS as road favorites and 1-5 ATS in last six overall and hey Green Wave is 7-1 ATS in last 8 home games and 5-0 ATS in last 5 as home dogs...Somehow...TULANE! |

Coastal Carolina at Louisiana-Lafayette 7:30 ET Ragin' Cajuns (-) over Chanticleers- Both these clubs are off to great 3-0 starts with Coastal Carolina going 3-0 ATS and the Ragin' Cajuns are 1-2 ATS. But, the difference is between the two is the level of competition that they each have played. The Chanticleers have defeated bottom feeder Kansas (0-3), Campbell (0-4) and Arkansas State (1-2) a combined 1-9. ULL opened the season taking down #20 Iowa State 31-14 and have beaten Georgia State and Georgia Southern who would both bury Kansas, Campbell and maybe split with Arkansas State. These two met last season and the Cajuns romped 48-7 and I don't believe the gap has closed that much and these nasty roosters can't play at this level. Take LOUISIANA-LAFAYETTE! |

Buffalo at Tennessee 7:00 ET Titans (+) over Bills- A pair of undefeated AFC clubs finally meet after COVID test requirements were met. 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! |

L.A. Chargers at New Orleans 8:15 ET Saints (-) over Chargers- It looks like another season where the Chargers (1-3) will play better than their record would indicate (3-1 ATS) as they seem to show so much promise and potential. L.A's Justin Herbert has shown that he can play and he's getting weekly lessons from NFL quarterback legends Tom Brady last week and Drew Brees this week both on the road. Herbert doesn't have to deal with hostile home crowds and that has aided his ability to function less like a rookie. New Orleans has had some injury issues particularly to Michael Thomas who returned the practice this week while the Chargers had four starters sit out practice this week including Joey Bosa. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Minnesota at Seattle 8:20 ET Vikings (+) over Seahawks- One question will be answered tonight and that is whether the Seahawks (4-0) are as good as they have looked and is Minnesota (1-3) as weak as they appear. The Vikings finally posted their first win last week over the confused Texans 31-23 a win that was very fortunate to say the least. Getting past Russell Wilson is something I have spoken about before and this season he's better than ever with 16 TD passes in four games. Seattle who are without a pair of defensive starters and have ruled out four others for Sunday. Let find out 'How we like hime now'...and Kirk Cousins has a decent day. Take MINNESOTA! |

10-11-20 | Colts +1 v. Browns | Top | 23-32 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 35 m | Show |
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! |

Miami at San Francisco 4:05 ET 49er's (-) over Dolphins- From what I have seen out of these two teams this line looks a bit too inviting. I understand Miami is only 1-3 but they have been very competitive going 2-2 ATS as have the Niners. San Francisco will welcome the return of QB Jimmy Grappolo and RB Raheem Mostert who have out the past two games. Playing together will be a work in progress and the Dolphins are their victim as the Niners respond after their home loss to Philadelphia Sunday night (Double-Down winner). Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

Philadelphia at Pittsburgh 1:00 ET Eagles (+) over Steelers- Soar Eagles Soar that refrain was sung loud and clear last Sunday night as Philadelphia up ended the 49ers in San Francisco (Double-Down winner). Pittsburgh meanwhile had an unscheduled bye missing out on Tennessee and have division games with Cleveland and Baltimore back-to-back. In the past three seasons the Steelers are 15-22 ATS as favorites and the Eagles are 13-8 as underdogs in the same span. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Arizona at New York Jets 1:00 ET Jets (+) over Cardinals- I know...how could I? Well, 'we' did have the Giants as a Vegas Hotline winner last week and this week it is the Jets turn. Maybe combined they could go 0-32 SU but somewhere even by accident they might cover the number. But, New York will be starting Joe Flacco at QB the Jets are 0-6 with out Sam Darnold at QB but, Le'Von Bell is scheduled to return to action and he will help relieve some of the pressure on the QB. Are the jets as bad as they look or can they turn it around like in the second half of the 2019 season. A New York player tested a false-positive COVID test Friday but all is well while Arizona is thinking about staying away. Either way the Cardinals will be distracted and the hapless Jets will fly over the birds. Take the NEW YORK J-E-T-S! |

10-11-20 | Bengals v. Ravens -11 | 3-27 | Win | 100 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |
Cincinnati at Baltimore 1:00 ET Ravens (-) over Bengals- This is where it happens, where Joe Burrow gets his NFL comeuppance as he faces one of the league's best defenses. Cincinnati's No. 1 overall pick has three straight 300-yard games passing for the 1-2-1 Bengals but it's the run game that will betray him. Baltimore allows just 97.5 rushing yards and that including the KC beating. The Bengals are 10-3 ATS as road dogs and the underdog is 9-3 last 12 meetings. But, the are Ravens 9-2 ATS vs the AFC 4-12 ATS last 16 as home favorites. Those trends sort of wash out with a slight advantage to the 'Cats' but Baltimore is in need of a good performance after losing to the Chiefs and sleep-walking through last weeks win over Washington. Take the RAVENS! |

Miami-Fl at Clemson 7:30 ET Tigers (-) over Hurricanes- Doesn't Miami look inviting, I mean they are 3-0 both SU and ATS and have an exciting new offense lead by transfer E'Rick King. 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! |

10-10-20 | Temple v. Navy +3.5 | 29-31 | Win | 100 | 18 h 8 m | Show | |
Temple at Navy 6:00 ET Midshipmen (+) over Owls- A pair of clubs that I love to win with are facing off in Annapolis with the Navy having a decided advantage. No, not necessarily in talent but in game experience and I game experience this season as Navy (1-2) is playing their fourth game while this will be Temple's season opener. I just saw this same scenario play out with Tulane and Houston but I expect different results. Navy has missed 2,000-yard rusher Malcolm Perry and played with QB Dalen Morris out last week they lost 40-7 to Air Force but he returns this week and so will 14,000 Midshipman that will be attending the game. Take NAVY! |

10-10-20 | Kansas State v. TCU -9 | 21-14 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 44 m | Show | |
Kansas State at Texas Christian 7:00 ET Horned Frogs (-) over Wildcats- It appears Kansas State made a brilliant hiring Chris Klieman from North Dakota State where he was 69-6 in five seasons and led the Wildcats to eight wins and a bowl berth in his first season. He is 2-0 over Oklahoma as K. State scored 4-straight touchdowns to defeat the Sooners 38-35 and last week they come from behind scoring a pair of fourth quarter TD's and defeated Texas Tech 31-21. TCU is 1-1 having defeated Texas 33-31 in Austin and the win was no fluke as out-gained the Longhorns by about a 100 yards including a 75-yard rushing advantage. Takin a close look at the Wildcats upsets you can see they were out-gained both the Sooners and Red Raiders. Considering Kansas State is 6-1 ATS in their last seven as road underdogs this is a powerful line as TCU is just 6-21 ATS in their last 27 as home favorites. So why is this line so ridiculous other than the fact the Wildcats will be starting true freshman Will Howard. Take TEXAS CHRISTIAN! |

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! |

10-10-20 | Duke -115 v. Syracuse | 38-24 | Win | 100 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
Duke at Syracuse 12:30 ET Blue Devils over Orange- Let's take a step back and see what we have here. What I see is a 0-4 team Duke favored on the road and have been outscored 129-70 and lead the nation in turnovers with 15. What makes this 'price' even more intriguing is the fact that the Orange went into Durham last season and throttled Blue Devils 49-6. I guess the number reflects the difference in quarterbacking although Chase Brice has seven interceptions and he is still heads above Tommy DeVito. This falls into the odds-maker knows more than 'you' category. Duke who play on natural grass at home are 15-2 ATS in their last `17 games on field-turf. Syracuse is 0-4 ATS in their last four after a SU win. Take DUKE! |

Florida at Texas A&M 12:00 ET Aggies (+) over Gators- Listen, I am a Gator fan all the way back to their Steve Spurrier days and I don't mean as a coach but when he was at quarterback. 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! |

Louisville at Georgia Tech 7:10 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Cardinals- To start with this is not going to be a meeting of top quality teams as both are in rebuilding mode. Inexperience and inconsistency has plagued both quarterbacks as the Cardinals Louisville Malik Cunningham (no relation to Richie) has had seven TD passes with five interceptions and Tech's true freshman QB Jeff Sims who has three TD passes with eight picks. Not so good, but he has two excellent running backs and the jackets know how to run the ball (even without Johnson). The Cardinals are just 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 road games and they lost their lone meeting against the Engineers 66-31 in 2018 at Louisville. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

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! |

Tulane at Houston 7:30 ET Green Wave (+) over Cougars- Talk about being a brides-maid the Houston Cougars have been left holding the bag five time this season because of COVID and this should be their season opener. Tulane who is 2-1 had their opener cancelled and had an opening date last week. Houston has had issues since the last meeting a 38-31 Tulane victory as they lost the QB D'Eriq King who went red-shirt after the loss. That loss dropped the Cougars to 1-3 on their way to 4-8 season. Houston has dominated this series but most of it is past history going 12-4 ATS in the last 16 meetings but they are 3-8 ATS against teams with winning records and this is their opener while the Wave have three games under their belt and that is a huge advantage. Take TULANE! |

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! |

Cam Newton is sidelined and the Patriots and Bill Belichick will go with Brian Hoyer who has never been impressive even at the College level. I don't know if the trends regarding New England have any value with Brady gone but Belichick still remains and the road team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. With or without Newton playing for the Pats KC is 7-0-1 ATS in their last eight home games and 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games overall. It really shouldn't make much difference who runs the Patriots offense as we have seen through the year's QB who won as Brady's replacement. Remember San Cassell or Jimmy 'Crappolo' who performed well as a Belichick back-up although were disappointing in other places. Take NEW ENGLAND! |

Philadelphia at San Francisco 8:20 ET Eagles (+) over 49ers- How bad can the 0-3 Eagles actually be? If we start with their quarterbacking it is noted that Carson Wentz has the lowest QB rating (63.9) of any starting NFL QB. He has thrown six interceptions with just one TD pass and has been sacked 11 times. San Fran is without a number of starters including Jimmy 'Crappolo' who is being replaced by NickMullins who had a wonderful time against the Giants last week winning 36-9. The Niners have two wins over the Jets (0-4) and Giants (0-3) but are just 2-6 ATS in their last eight meetings with Philly and just 7-19-1 ATS as home favorites. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

New York Giants at L.A. Rams 4:25 ET Giants (+) over Rams- This could be a long day if the 'new' Rams show up and the usual Giants. The last time I saw these two foes facing each other in New York the Giants defenders didn't face anybody as they actually ram away from receivers after they caught the ball (honest) and the Rams crushed 51-17. But as bad as New York is and has been they are actually 13-3 ATS in their last 16 road games and 4-1 ATS following a ATS loss and believe it or not the are Giants 8-1 ATS over LA in the last nine meetings. Take NEW YORK GIANTS! |

Cleveland at Dallas 1:00 ET Browns (+) over Cowboys- 'There's something rotten in Denmark'...either this is the biggest sucker play of the season or the Cowboys get beat outright. Really, honestly...the bookmaker makes Dallas a meager 4.5-point favorites against one of the worst ATS teams in NFL history who are 0-7 ATS in their last seven road games including their 38-6 blowout loss at Baltimore where they failed to score a touchdown. So bad have the Browns been that they are 17-39-1 ATS in their last 57 games as underdogs. But hey, the Cowboys have been money burner and well as they are 4-9 ATS at home as favorites and 2-8 ATS against teams with winning records. It's all about this 'price' way to inviting. Take CLEVELAND! |

Arizona at Carolina 1:00 ET Panthers (+) over Cardinals- Carolina ended a franchise 10-game losing streak by taking down the Chargers last week led by QB Teddy Bridgewater who provided Matt Ruhle with his first NFL victory. The Panthers won despite settling for five field goals in the red zone. Arizona was upended by Detroit at home and their defensive weakness was exposed especially because injuries have depleted the Safety position as their two starter didn't practice Wednesday. Ruhle has made adjustments on offense as this is the first home game for the Panthers without running back Christian McCaffrey and has opened his offense with a group of young playmakers. Take CAROLINA. |

New Orleans at Detroit 1:00 ET Lions (+) over Saints- People are speaking how Tom Brady has lost some zip on the ball and most haven't noticed that Drew Brees has lost more velocity on his throws. New Orleans has other concerns as well with four starters having missed practice on Wednesday and their playing status is up in the air. Detroit is coming off their first win a 26-23 victory at Arizona aided by newly acquired running back Adrian Peterson who averaged 4.9 yards a carry. The Saints are 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings, 4-1 ATS as road favorites and 11-4 ATS overall. The Lions really have little to brag about as they are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games as home underdogs and 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games overall. That all is ready to change. Take DETROIT! |

10-04-20 | Seahawks v. Dolphins +6 | Top | 31-23 | Loss | -115 | 17 h 16 m | Show |
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! |
