12-03-19 | Lakers v. Nuggets -2 | 105-96 | Loss | -107 | 24 h 48 m | Show | |
My selection is on Denver minus the points over Los Angeles at 9:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Lakers may own the better overall record and get a lot more press than the Nuggets, but I believe the jury is still out as to whether they're actually the better team. Denver always owns a solid home court advantage and this season has been no different as it checks in with an 8-2 mark. The Lakers are in bounce-back mode off a 14-point loss at home to the Mavericks on Sunday. I'm just not sure this is an ideal bounce-back spot - in fact, I know it's not. The home team has taken eight of the last nine meetings in this series with Denver taking the most recent meeting in Los Angeles last March. Take Denver (10*). |

12-03-19 | Stars v. Jets +100 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 23 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on Winnipeg over Dallas at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. This is a quick revenge spot for the Jets after suffering a 5-3 loss in Dallas back on November 21st. The Jets will be happy to be back home after a successful west coast road trip that ended on a sour note with a 2-1 loss in Los Angeles. Winnipeg has notched six wins in its last eight games overall. Dallas was one of the hottest teams in hockey in November but has since cooled off, dropping three straight games while scoring only three goals in the process. A streaky team, I don't expect to see the Stars pick themselves up off the mat in hostile territory on Tuesday night. Take Winnipeg (10*). |

12-03-19 | Pistons -2 v. Cavs | 127-94 | Win | 100 | 22 h 57 m | Show | |
My selection is on Detroit minus the points over Cleveland at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Pistons check in top-nine in the league in both offensive and defensive rating over their last five games and while they're not going to run away and hide in this matchup, I do think they should be laying more than a bucket against the lowly Cavaliers. Cleveland has been particularly bad at the defensive end of the floor of late, ranking 29th in the league in defensive rating over its last five contests. Neither team will look to really push the pace in this one and that serves Detroit just fine as it should cruise to a comfortable road win. Take Detroit (10*). |
|||||||
12-02-19 | Vikings +3 v. Seahawks | 30-37 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
My selection is on Minnesota plus the points over Seattle at 8:15 pm et on Monday. There's not a lot separating these two teams so it's no surprise that we're dealing with a very tight field goal line ahead of their Monday night showdown. I'll grab the points with the underdog Vikings as they come in well-rested and poised to take advantage of a very beatable Seattle defense. The Seahawks own a tremendous home field advantage at CenturyLink Field but it's certainly worth noting that they've already lost games against the Saints and Ravens here at home this season. I don't feel that intimidation will be a real factor against an experienced Vikings group. Seattle comes in riding its longest winning streak of the season, which stands at four games. I believe there's a good chance it ends here. Take Minnesota (10*). |

12-01-19 | Jets -3 v. Bengals | Top | 6-22 | Loss | -106 | 64 h 10 m | Show |
NFL AFC Game of the Month. My selection is on New York minus the points over Cincinnati at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Jets are in excellent position to add to the winless Bengals' misery on Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati. The New York offense has been quietly racking up points in recent weeks and is an absolute smash spot against a very beatable Bengals defense on Sunday. Cincinnati has been one of the worst teams in the league defending the run this season which really opens things up with the Jets offense and RB Le'Veon Bell in particular. Jets QB Sam Darnold is on a redemption tour after a brutal start to the season and he's in line for another big performance here. Meanwhile, the Jets quietly own the league's best run defense which should severely limit what the Bengals can do offensively. QB Andy Dalton is back as the starter and while he may give Cincinnati a bit of a spark, I'm not sure it really matters at this point. His supporting cast is seriously lacking with WR Tyler Boyd one of the only bright spots. RB Joe Mixon has had a nice run the last couple of games but I don't expect him to play a big role in this one. Take New York (10*). |
|||||||
11-30-19 | Georgia -28 v. Georgia Tech | 52-7 | Win | 100 | 63 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on Georgia minus the points over Georgia Tech at 12 noon et on Saturday. We won with Georgia Tech in last week's narrow victory over N.C. State while missing the mark with Georgia as they won but failed to cover against Texas A&M. I do feel I have a pretty good read on both of these squads as they close out the regular season with this annual in-state rivalry matchup, and I'm confident laying the big number with the Bulldogs in what should be an old-fashioned blowout. Credit the Yellow Jackets for not giving up on the campaign but there's no question it's been a long season with eight losses in 11 games. They'll try to muck things up on Saturday and turn this into an ugly affair but I don't see them succeeding. The Bulldogs have been a little uneven offensively in recent weeks but they can absolutely get loose against this Georgia Tech defense. I certainly don't expect to see Georgia take it easy on the Jackets. Take Georgia (10*). |
|||||||
11-30-19 | Clemson -27 v. South Carolina | 38-3 | Win | 100 | 63 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on Clemson minus the points over South Carolina at 12 noon et on Saturday. Despite its flawless 11-0 record and despite the fact that it has scored 50+ points in four straight games, it almost seems as if Clemson is flying under the radar a little bit with the likes of LSU, Alabama and Ohio State garnering much of the national attention this season. The Tigers have certainly rounded into form after a relatively slow start to the season and they're in excellent position to absolutely annihilate an overmatched South Carolina squad here. This is the end of the line for the four-win Gamecocks, whose season highlight was undoubtedly a stunning 20-17 win over Georgia between the hedges back on October 12th. Since then, the Gamecocks have just one win to their credit and that came at home against lowly Vanderbilt. Take Clemson (10*). |
|||||||
11-29-19 | Washington State +8 v. Washington | 13-31 | Loss | -107 | 43 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on Washington State plus the points over Washington at 4 pm et on Friday. Washington has owned the Apple Cup in recent years, taking each of the last six meetings but I believe that streak is in jeopardy this year. The Cougars and Huskies check in sporting identical 6-5 records but it's Washington State that comes in with some positive momentum off back-to-back wins, scoring a whopping 103 points in the process. The Cougars defense has reverted to old form, giving up a ton of points this season, but I actually feel they can hold their own in this particular matchup. Even two weeks ago against one of the worst defenses in the nation in Oregon State, Washington managed to score only 19 points. Despite the pro-Huskies crowd, I look for the Cougars to stay inside the number in this one. Take Washington State (10*). |
|||||||
11-29-19 | Missouri -12.5 v. Arkansas | 24-14 | Loss | -109 | 41 h 15 m | Show | |
My selection is on Missouri minus the points over Arkansas at 2:30 pm et on Friday. This is a true 'get right' spot for Missouri and it couldn't come at a more opportune time as the Tigers need a victory to become Bowl eligible. It's easy to forget that Missouri got off to a terrific 5-1 start this season before the wheels came off in October. A tough schedule has led them to five straight losses but all is not lost. I like the Tigers chances of absolutely going off in this smash spot against a very weak Arkansas defense. The Razorbacks have lost eight games in a row and have been outgained by 240+ yards in four of their last five contests. They're unsettled at quarterback and I just don't see them keeping up in a potential shootout on Friday. Keep in mind Arkansas is allowing a staggering 5.8 yards per rush this season. This one could get out of hand in a hurry. Take Missouri (10*). |
|||||||
11-28-19 | Saints -6.5 v. Falcons | Top | 26-18 | Win | 100 | 47 h 22 m | Show |
NFL Turkey Day Game of the Year. My selection is on New Orleans minus the points over Atlanta at 8:15 pm et on Thursday. The Saints had a tough time pulling away from the Panthers on Sunday but ultimately did secure the victory thanks in large part to miscues in Carolina’s kicking game. I expect a much cleaner performance from the Saints this week as they travel to face the division rival Falcons in the friendly confines of Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. I like the way the Saints offense has rounded into form with a healthy Drew Brees. There’s reason to believe they can even improve on their recent strong performances with Alvin Kamara in particular in line for a big breakout performance here. Meanwhile, the cupboard is getting pretty bare for the Falcons offense with a number of key cogs banged-up and now forced to play on a short week. The Saints have been able to generate a ton of pressure on opposing quarterbacks and I’m confident they’ll be able to force Falcons QB Matt Ryan into some key mistakes in this contest as well. Atlanta’s ground game is by no means imposing with RB Devonta Freeman once again questionable to suit up. I don’t think there’s any question the offense is missing the likes of Mohamed Sanu and Tevin Coleman right now. I’m not convinced Atlanta can stay in this game for four quarters. Take New Orleans (10*). |

11-28-19 | Bears -3 v. Lions | 24-20 | Win | 100 | 39 h 17 m | Show | |
My selection is on Chicago minus the points over Detroit at 12:30 pm et on Thursday. It might be time for the NFL to reconsider giving the Lions their annual home game on Thanksgiving Day. In fact, that time probably passed years ago. Mired in another disappointing campaign, there's little reason to have much confidence in Detroit here as it hosts Chicago. Of course, the Bears don't have a great deal of upside either but they do have more going for them than the Lions right now. The Chicago defense should feast on the Lions Jeff Driskel-led offense, with Driskel playing on a bad hamstring and coming off an absolute beating at the hands of the Redskins defense on Sunday. The Bears have done an excellent job of keeping opposing quarterbacks in the pocket and as long as they can continue to do that against Driskel, they'll be in fine shape on Thursday as he simply hasn't proven he can consistently move the chains through the air. There are obviously concerns when it comes to the Chicago offense but I'm not sure it will be asked to do too much in this one. QB Mitchell Trubisky is coming off one of his better performances, even though it did come against the lowly Giants. He draws another favorable matchup here against a banged-up Lions defense. Based on how I expect the Chicago defense to perform in this one, I think we will see Trubisky given some short fields to work with and do just enough to secure the win and cover. Take Chicago (10*). |
|||||||
11-26-19 | Western Michigan v. Northern Illinois UNDER 51.5 | 14-17 | Win | 100 | 21 h 20 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Western Michigan and Northern Illinois at 7 pm et on Tuesday. There's little reason to have much faith in either of these offenses even though the 'over' has cashed in each of Western Michigan's last two games and six straight contests involving Northern Illinois. Keep in mind, Broncos QB Jon Wassink had thrown for under 200 yards in four straight games prior to last week's 322-yard, three-touchdown outburst against Ohio. On Senior Night, I do expect to see the Northern Illinois defense show up as the Huskies wrap up what has been a highly-disappointing campaign. NIU QB Marcus Childers has been ineffective since taking over for Ryan Bowers, who continues to recover from a concussion. Childers has thrown for more than 100 yards just once this season. While he is gaining 6.5 yards per rush, that's largely due to a relatively small sample size. In the last two seasons he averaged 3.3 and 2.7 yards per rush. Both offenses are capable of moving the football on the ground with terrific lead backs. That should only serve to keep the clock moving in this one, however, as Western Michigan looks to pick up a win and move on to postseason play. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-25-19 | Ravens v. Rams UNDER 47.5 | Top | 45-6 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 11 m | Show |
NFL MNF Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Baltimore and Los Angeles at 8:15 pm et on Monday. This is being pegged as a potential shootout based on the total we're working with but I don't expect this non-conference affair to play out that way on the field. The Ravens will be hard-pressed to match their last two performances, in which they scored 49 and 41 points against far inferior defenses in the Bengals and Texans. The Rams defense does match up well with the Ravens dynamic offense as they allow just 3.5 yards per rush this season and don't give up a lot of big passing plays downfield. Baltimore and QB Lamar Jackson in particular is certainly in line for a 'come back to Earth' game as it travels across the country for this primetime affair. On the flip side, there's little reason to have a lot of confidence in the Rams offense at this point. This is a unit that has underachieved due to injuries and otherwise all season long and that's unlikely to change against an underrated Ravens defense. Baltimore will give up yardage on the ground but I'm not convinced Los Angeles will be able to take full advantage. The Ravens have been generating a ton of pressure on opposing quarterbacks and have a shutdown tandem in the secondary capable of containing the likes of Kupp, Woods and Cooks. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-25-19 | Flames +146 v. Penguins | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
My selection is on Calgary over Pittsburgh at 7:05 pm et on Monday. The Flames finally busted out of their slump with a 3-2 shootout win in Philadelphia on Saturday afternoon and I look for them to take another step forward in Pittsburgh on Monday. Things looked pretty grim for the Flames following a second period in which they were outshot 18-3 against the Flyers on Saturday but they rallied with two third period goals before ultimately securing the win in a shootout - their first victory since November 7th. It will be all for not if they can't keep things going on Monday, however. The Penguins successfully bounced back from consecutive losses against the red hot Islanders, skating to a 4-1 win over the Devils on Friday. It's worth noting they've notched just two regulation time wins over their last 10 games. Take Calgary (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Hamilton v. Winnipeg UNDER 52 | 12-33 | Win | 100 | 58 h 23 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Hamilton and Winnipeg at 6 pm et on Sunday. We missed with the 'under' in the Ti-Cats blowout win over the Eskimos last week (but won with Hamilton) and cashed with the Blue Bombers in their minor upset win over the Riders in Saskatchewan. Here, I see value in the 'under' as the Ti-Cats and Bombers do battle with the Grey Cup on the line in Calgary. The Ti-Cats exploded for 36 points in last week's victory, although it's worth noting that QB Dane Evans actually completed only 21-of-36 passes while throwing only one touchdown and one interception. Their leading rusher in that game was Cameron Marshall with just 31 yards on the ground. They'll be facing a much tougher defense this week. The Bombers have turned the offensive reins over to former Ti-Cats QB Zach Collaros and while he has played well, I really feel he's more of a game manager than the dynamic Chris Streveler, who is still a big part of the offense. Note that it was Streveler who completed 31-of-42 passes for over 300 yards the last time these two teams met. If you've followed my plays regularly, you know that I'm high on the Ti-Cats defense - arguably the best in the CFL. I'm confident they can keep the Bombers offense in check on Sunday. Note that two regular season meetings between these teams totaled just 38 and 46 points. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Cowboys v. Patriots -5.5 | Top | 9-13 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 49 m | Show |
NFL Non-Conference Game of the Month. My selection is on New England minus the points over Dallas at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. Dallas bounced back with a win in Detroit last Sunday but it will find the going a lot tougher as it stays on the road to face the Patriots in Foxborough this week. Poor weather conditions are expected, which doesn't generally suit QB Dak Prescott and the Cowboys offense well. While Dallas RB Ezekiel Elliott draws a favorable matchup on paper, I feel the Pats will be content to concede yardage on the ground once again, but ultimately do another nice job of keeping the opposition out of the end zone. Offensively, the Pats are banged-up right now but the 'next man up' philosophy has always served them well, and I expect no different here. The Cowboys defense, while elite on paper, has disappointed for much of the campaign, including last week when it allowed Lions backup QB Jeff Driskel to move the football up and down the field. New England QB Tom Brady isn't 100% healthy but I'm anticipating a big performance from the GOAT once again. This is precisely the type of game Bill Bellichick's Patriots get up for and win by margin. Take New England (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Jaguars v. Titans OVER 41.5 | 20-42 | Win | 100 | 22 h 43 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Jacksonville and Tennessee at 4:05 pm et on Sunday. This is by no means a shootout on paper but I do think the Jaguars and Titans can find their way 'over' the relatively low posted total in what could be a sneaky-entertaining affair on Sunday afternoon. Last week, we saw Jags QB Nick Foles throw the ball 47 times in a blowout loss in Indianapolis and I expect him to be let loose once again here as the Titans are likely to stymie the Jags ground attack. That's not to say that Jags RB Leonard Fournette won't be a factor as he should certainly play a role in the Jacksonville passing game. Titans RB Derrick Henry is coming off a big performance last week and should absolutely run wild against a Jags defense that has somewhat surprisingly been torched by opposing ground games for over 5.4 yards per rush this season. QB Ryan Tannehill has played well but still doesn't instill a great deal of confidence. With that being said, since dealing away CB Jalen Ramsey, the Jags are beatable through the air and the Titans coaching staff appears to have full confidence in Tannehill. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Broncos v. Bills -3.5 | Top | 3-20 | Win | 100 | 20 h 37 m | Show |
NFL Blowout Game of the Week. My selection is on Buffalo minus the points over Denver at 1 pm et on Sunday. With Denver nearly pulling off an outright upset as a double-digit underdog at Minnesota last week, it's understandable that the Broncos are only a short underdog against the Bills on Sunday. I believe the Bills are once again undervalued. There's little chance we'll see Buffalo overlook Denver, not after the Broncos gave the Vikings such a serious run last week. I don't like the scheduling spot at all for Denver as it stays on the road for a second straight week, heading to a less than appealing destination in Buffalo. The Bills defense should absolutely feast on the Broncos leaky offensive line, noting that Denver ranks bottom-five in the league in sacks per QB dropback allowed. For their part, the Bills are inside the top 10 in terms of sacks this season. QB Brandon Allen has held his own to this point, but I look for him to get exposed by Buffalo here. This isn't exactly an eruption spot for the Bills offense against a quality Broncos defense, but I do think we'll see them be given enough short fields to inflict some damage on the scoreboard. Based on how I expect the Bills defense to perform in this game, I really don't think we're going to need a whole lot from the offense to ultimately stretch out the margin and put this one out of reach. Take Buffalo (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Seahawks +1.5 v. Eagles | 17-9 | Win | 100 | 19 h 5 m | Show | |
My selection is on Seattle plus the points over Philadelphia at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Eagles are in desperation mode as they host the Seahawks on Sunday afternoon off last Sunday's disappointing narrow loss to the Patriots. I believe Philadelphia will be hard-pressed to bounce back as it deals with a number of key injuries on the offensive side of the football. That's not to say the Eagles can't find some success offensively against a very beatable Seahawks defense, but with RT Lane Johnson officially out and RB Jordan Howard all but ruled out, they'll need a peak performance from QB Carson Wentz. Of course, Wentz doesn't have his full compliment of wide receivers at his disposal. The Seahawks offense has been outstanding all season and QB Russell Wilson should have a field day picking apart the Eagles overmatched secondary. I'm still not sure the Seahawks WR duo and now trio of Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf and Josh Gordon get nearly enough credit. Take Seattle (10*). |
|||||||
11-24-19 | Seahawks v. Eagles OVER 47 | Top | 17-9 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 49 m | Show |
NFL NFC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Seattle and Philadelphia at 1 pm et on Sunday. We're being given a favorable total here thanks to the Eagles low-scoring result in poor weather conditions at home against a suddenly punchless Patriots offense last week. Here, I'm anticipating a shootout as the Seahawks roll into the Linc to face the Eagles. Seahawks QB Russell Wilson should enjoy a ton of success against a very beatable Eagles secondary in this one. I continue to profess that Seattle's wide receiver duo (and now trio) of Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf and Josh Gordon is one of the most underappreciated units in the entire NFL. Also look for Seahawks RB Chris Carson to get involved heavily in the passing game in this one as the Eagles have had no success defending opponent's short passing attacks this season. On the flip side, likely forced into comeback mode for much of this game, I do expect a big game from Eagles QB Carson Wentz. The Philadelphia wide receiving corps is undermanned right now but it can involve the running backs and certain the tight ends, who draw a favorable matchup here. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Troy v. UL-Lafayette OVER 71 | 3-53 | Loss | -109 | 27 h 58 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Troy and Louisiana-Lafayette at 5 pm et on Saturday. Regardless how this game plays out, I expect it to find its way 'over' the lofty total. We won with Troy last week as it rolled to a 63-27 win over what I consider to be one of the nation's worst teams in Texas State. Here, the Trojans should find the going a lot tougher, although I do have faith in QB Kaleb Barker to get them into the end zone early and often. Barker has now thrown for at least 330 yards in four straight games, racking up 14 touchdowns compared to just one interception over that stretch. Louisiana-Lafayette will pose a challenge defensively to be sure, but with Troy likely to be forced into comeback mode, I'm confident we'll see Barker bomb away with his excellent group of receivers all afternoon long. The Ragin' Cajuns have more of a run-oriented offensive attack with Elijah Mitchell and Trey Ragas leading the way. With that in mind, they should be able to run wild against a very beatable Troy defense here. We're talking about a Troy defense that even against a usually punchless Texas State offense allowed around 400 yards of total offense and 27 points last week. Note that Louisiana-Lafayette has scored over 30 points in eight of 10 games this season and should be able to better than number here. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Texas A&M v. Georgia -13 | Top | 13-19 | Loss | -106 | 29 h 6 m | Show |
CFB SEC Game of the Month. My selection is on Georgia minus the points over Texas A&M at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. Georgia has quietly strung together four straight quality wins, allowing a grand total of just 31 points in the process, since suffering that stunning home loss to South Carolina back on October 12th. Here, I believe the Bulldogs are in a smash spot against Texas A&M. The Aggies are off to a 7-3 start but they've certainly struggled when stepping up in class this season, going winless against the likes of Clemson, Auburn and Alabama. This is another big step-up spot and I look for them to struggle once again. The Aggies will undoubtedly need more from QB Kellen Mond in this one as Georgia will focus on shutting down A&M's vaunted ground attack. Note that Mond hasn't thrown for over 300 yards since September. Georgia's offense hasn't had to be great over the last month or so but I'm confident it can rise to the occasion when needed in this game, which features a relatively low total. Bulldogs QB Jake Fromm completed only 13 passes and threw for just 110 yards in last week's win over Auburn. That was on the road against a better defense than he'll face here, however. Expect a strong bounce-back performance. Take Georgia (10*). |
|||||||
11-23-19 | Liberty v. Virginia -16 | Top | 27-55 | Win | 100 | 26 h 51 m | Show |
CFB Blowout Game of the Week. My selection is on Virginia minus the points over Liberty at 12 noon et on Saturday. While the Cavaliers defense stood out early in the season it has been their offense that has really taken off over the last couple of weeks with QB Bryce Perkins rounding into form, RB Wayne Taulapapa remaining a touchdown-machine and WR Terrell Jana developing into a gamebreaker over the last few games. Upstart Liberty has already gained Bowl eligibility but it will be hard-pressed to even stay competitive in this one. While Liberty has won six games, it has also shown some inconsistency, giving up 40+ points against FCS squad Maine and losing outright to lowly Rutgers. After traveling to Provo for a loss to BYU last week, now they stay on the road for a fourth consecutive game - a stretch that has taken the Flames all over the map. I don't think there's any chance Virginia overlooks Liberty here, not after almost suffering an upset loss at the hands of an improving Georgia Tech squad (we won with Georgia Tech on Thursday) last week. Take Virginia (10*). |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Colorado State v. Wyoming -6 | 7-17 | Win | 100 | 14 h 25 m | Show | |
My selection is on Wyoming minus the points over Colorado State at 9:30 pm et on Friday. Wyoming became Bowl eligible with a blowout win over Nevada back on October 26th but has gone winless since. That's not overly concerning though as its last two losses came on the road against Boise State and Utah State, and those two setbacks came by a combined eight points. Colorado State can still gain Bowl eligibility by running the table over the final two weeks of the season but that's highly unlikely with this date followed by a home game against Boise State. Simply put, I feel Colorado State owns one of the weakest defenses in the nation and even though Wyoming is by no means an offensive powerhouse, and currently going with backup QB Tyler Vander Waal, who threw three interceptions last time out, I'm confident the Cowboys can inflict some damage here. RB Xzavian Valladay has taken over since the Cowboys starting QB went down, shouldering the bulk of the load on offense running for 444 yards over the last three games. This is a smash spot for him against a Rams defense that allows over five yards per rush this season. Take Wyoming (10*). |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Rangers +106 v. Senators | 1-4 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on New York over Ottawa at 7:35 pm et on Friday. The Rangers are in a solid revenge spot here after suffering a 6-2 blowout loss on home ice against the Senators back on November 4th. Since that loss, the Rangers have gone 4-3 over their last seven contests, culminating with a big win over the Capitals on home ice on Wednesday. This is a clear letdown spot for the Sens after they pulled out an overtime win over the rival Canadiens in Montreal on Wednesday. That marked their second consecutive win, although the first of those came against the lowly Red Wings. Note that the road team has now won each of the last three meetings in this series. Take New York (10*). |
|||||||
11-22-19 | Hawks +6.5 v. Pistons | 103-128 | Loss | -104 | 12 h 42 m | Show | |
My selection is on Atlanta plus the points over Detroit at 7:05 pm et on Friday. Both of these teams have struggled out of the gates but I believe the Hawks have a little more upside heading into Friday night's contest in Detroit. Atlanta has had the Pistons number in the Motor City in recent years, winning each of the last two meetings here outright and four straight ATS. Neither team checks in sporting solid form offensively. The Hawks sit 23rd in the league in offensive rating over their last five games while the Pistons are just two spots ahead of them over that same stretch. Atlanta actually pulls up the league rear in terms of defensive rating over its last five games but the Pistons haven't been much better in that regard either, sitting 26th. The reason I believe the Hawks can put one over on Detroit here is the fact that they are second in the league in pace rating over their last five contests while the Pistons rank in the league's bottom-eight. If Atlanta can effectively push the pace here it should be able to really expose a struggling Detroit defense. The Hawks don't play much 'D' themselves, but I'm simply not convinced the Pistons can take advantage. Take Atlanta (10*). |

11-21-19 | Colts +4 v. Texans | 17-20 | Win | 100 | 14 h 38 m | Show | |
My selection is on Indianapolis plus the points over Houston at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. I'll grab the points with the Colts in a matchup where home field rarely means much and the underdog has thrived, going 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings. What more could you want from the Colts on the road this season? They opened the campaign with an overtime loss against the Chargers in Los Angeles before upsetting the Titans and Chiefs and then falling by just two points in Pittsburgh. Now they square off against a Texans squad reeling off last week's annihilation at the hands of the red hot Ravens in Baltimore. Save for a blowout win over the Falcons, Houston hasn't had an easy time finding the win column at home, with two of its three victories coming by a combined four points. I don't like the way the Texans defense matches up at all against the Colts passing game, which could get WR T.Y. Hilton back on the field on Thursday night. While the Colts defense will have its hands full with QB DeShaun Watson and WR DeAndre Hopkins, I really don't feel that the Texans offense is all that imposing. Watson will need a monumental effort to bounce-back from last week's rough ride against the Ravens. Take Indianapolis (10*). |

11-21-19 | Flames +1.5 v. Blues | 0-5 | Loss | -188 | 10 h 47 m | Show | |
My selection is on Calgary +1.5 goals over St. Louis at 8:05 pm et on Thursday. The Flames are sliding right now, having lost five games in a row - a skid that started with an overtime loss to these same Blues at home on November 9th. They easily could have folded the tent after falling behind 3-0 against Colorado on Tuesday but didn't, battling back but falling just short in a 3-2 loss. It's not as if the Flames have been losing to bad teams. Their five-game losing streak has come at the hands of the Blues, Stars, Coyotes, Knights and Avalanche. The Blues have actually been struggling as well, having dropped three of their last four games, but they did bounce back with a 3-1 win over the Lightning last time out. You would have to go back six games to find the last time they scored more than four goals in a game The Flames are a good hockey team. I don't believe they'll stay down for long, and I certainly think they'll be up for this revenge spot against the defending Stanley Cup champions. Take Calgary +1.5 goals (10*). |

11-21-19 | NC State v. Georgia Tech -1 | Top | 26-28 | Win | 100 | 13 h 6 m | Show |
CFB ACC Game of the Year. My selection is on Georgia Tech minus the points over N.C. State at 8 pm et on Thursday. N.C. State may own the better overall record, but its a dead heat between these two struggling squads from an ATS perspective with both checking in at a miserable 2-8. I simply feel that the Yellow Jackets have a lot more upside at this point of the season and should defend their home field successfully on Thursday night in Atlanta. N.C. State has lost four games in a row both SU and ATS with its last victory coming in an ugly 16-10 affair against a disappointing Syracuse squad way back on October 10th. The Wolfpack's only other win over the course of their current 2-6 slide came in a non-cover against Ball State. Even though Georgia Tech is coming off a 45-0 drubbing at the hands of Virginia Tech, it hasn't given up on the season, as evidenced by its 2-2 ATS record over its last four games, including a stunning overtime win at Miami and a narrow five-point loss at Virginia. I expect a strong bounce-back from the Jackets here in what is essentially their last shot at a victory this season before taking on Georgia in their annual regular season finale. Take Georgia Tech (10*). |

11-20-19 | Pistons v. Bulls -1 | 89-109 | Win | 100 | 11 h 60 m | Show | |
My selection is on Chicago minus the points over Detroit at 8:05 pm et on Wednesday. The Bulls have only been installed as a short favorite in this one but I believe there's a good chance they run the Pistons off the floor at United Center on Wednesday. Note that Detroit does check in showing excellent form offensively, ranking sixth in the league in offensive rating over its last five games. There are a couple of problems, however. The Pistons are 26th in pace rating over that same stretch and face a Bulls squad that sits in the top half of the league in defensive rating over their last five games as well. Chicago impressively sits atop the league in pace rating over that same period and should be able to take full advantage of a Pistons team that ranks 26th in defensive rating. Take Chicago (10*). |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Bucks -11 v. Hawks | 135-127 | Loss | -106 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
My selection is on Milwaukee minus the points over Atlanta at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. This is an absolute smash spot for the Bucks as they head to Atlanta to take on the Hawks. Milwaukee's offense has lagged a little of late, and we took advantage of that fact by playing the 'under' in its last game in Chicago on Monday night. However, this is a true 'get right' spot against a Hawks squad that ranks dead last in the league in defensive rating over their last five games. Note that over that same stretch, no team ranks higher in pace rating than the Bucks. While Atlanta likes to push the pace as well, and sits right behind the Bucks in pace rating over its last five contests, I'm not sure it will be able to find much success given Milwaukee ranks best in the league in defensive rating over that same stretch. Atlanta's offensive efficiency is lagging right now as it ranks 26th in offensive rating over its last five games. Take Milwaukee (10*). |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Akron +31.5 v. Miami-OH | 17-20 | Win | 100 | 13 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on Akron plus the points over Miami-Ohio at 7:30 pm et on Wednesday. Akron is winless on the season, not just straight-up but against the spread as well. I believe the Zips end their streak of futility here, however, as they travel to face a Redhawks squad that couldn't be blamed for being a little complacent in this the back-half of consecutive home games against the MAC's two worst teams. The one positive I'll point to as far as Akron goes is QB Kato Nelson. He has actually managed to throw for over 1,600 yards, 10 touchdowns and six interceptions this season and has now tossed 33 touchdowns compared to just 16 interceptions over the course of his three-year career with the Zips. When these two teams met last season the Redhawks were actually the underdog. Akron has delivered the cash in three of the last four meetings in this series. Take Akron (10*). |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Toledo v. Buffalo UNDER 54.5 | 30-49 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 46 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Toledo and Buffalo at 7:30 pm et on Wednesday. Toledo is coming off a string of high-scoring games, with the 'over' cashing in each of its last four contests. I look for that streak to end here, however, as the Rockets face a tough challenge in the form of the Buffalo Bulls on Wednesday night. Note that the Rockets offense has been far better at home than on the road this season. Save for a big performance at Colorado State (who owns one of the weakest defenses in the nation), Toledo has scored just 45 points combined in its other three road tilts. Last year, Buffalo went into the Glass Bowl and held the Rockets to only 17 points in a game that featured a closing total of 63 points. The 'over' has cashed in the Bulls last three games, with their offense getting loose against the likes of Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan and Kent State. They should find the going a little tougher here, even if Toledo hasn't looked particularly stout on the defensive side of the football over its last few games. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Spurs v. Wizards OVER 237 | 132-138 | Win | 100 | 10 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between San Antonio and Washington at 7:05 pm et on Wednesday. This may look like an exorbitantly high total on paper, but it's warranted in my opinion. This one sets up nicely from all angles. The Spurs rank top-10 in offensive rating and second-last in defensive rating over their last five games. Meanwhile, the Wizards have been near the top of the chart in terms of offensive rating all season, currently sitting fifth over their last five contests. They're 28th in defensive rating over the same stretch. The Wiz are also tied for fourth in pace rating over their last five games and while the Spurs check in 18th in that category, I think the sheer ineptness of the Wizards defense, and the fact that San Antonio may be playing catch-up most of the night, plays in our favor with an 'over' ticket in hand. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Eastern Michigan +5 v. Northern Illinois | 45-17 | Win | 100 | 23 h 57 m | Show | |
My selection is on Eastern Michigan minus the points over Northern Illinois at 7:30 pm et on Tuesday. Northern Illinois pulled out a win at Toledo last week to keep its slim hopes of reaching a Bowl game alive. Of course, those hopes aren't quite as slim now as they need to win out over their final two regular season games to get to six victories. I believe they'll be hard-pressed to string together a second straight win here, however. Eastern Michigan can likely pick up its sixth win at home against Kent State on Black Friday, but will certainly be motivated to take care of that on Tuesday night in DeKalb. The Eagles are an even 3-3 on the road this season, including a notable win at Illinois and a tough three-point loss at Toledo. I like the progression we've seen from Eagles QB Mike Glass III. While he was throwing more touchdowns earlier in the season he was also throwing a lot more interceptions. In fact, he hasn't tossed a single interception in his last three games. Huskies QB Ross Bowers is back healthy but has thrown just two touchdowns compared to three interceptions since returning and hasn't thrown multiple touchdown passes in a game since August 31st against FCS opponent Illinois State. Take Eastern Michigan (10*). |

11-19-19 | Eastern Michigan v. Northern Illinois UNDER 54.5 | Top | 45-17 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 50 m | Show |
CFB MAC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Eastern Michigan and Northern Illinois at 7:30 pm et on Tuesday. We missed the mark with the 'under' in Northern Illinois' 31-28 win over Toledo last week but I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play on Tuesday night as the Huskies return home to host Eastern Michigan. I did like what I saw from the Huskies defense for the first three quarters in that game anyway. Northern Illinois allowed a touchdown with just under six minutes remaining in the first quarter against Toledo but then didn't give up any more points until a minute into the fourth quarter. The Huskies know they can't become complacent defensively in this one after giving up 21 fourth quarter points before kicking a game-winning field goal in the closing seconds last week. Eastern Michigan will certainly be up for this one, knowing that a win would make it Bowl eligible with a game to spare. Note that Northern Illinois has scored 24 points or less in six of 10 games this season. The Huskies put up 26 points the last time they faced the Eagles last season, but that was a stronger NIU squad that won eight games. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Islanders +111 v. Penguins | Top | 5-4 | Win | 111 | 22 h 12 m | Show |
NHL Metropolitan Division Game of the Year. My selection is on New York over Pittsburgh at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. There have been times where the Penguins have actually had more success with either Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin sidelined and right now Crosby is on the shelf (and the Pens are fresh off a 6-1 dismantling of the Maple Leafs on Saturday night). Here, however, I believe there is a class difference that is not being properly reflected in this line. The Islanders are red hot, but have some unfinished business here with their most recent loss coming at the hands of Pittsburgh (in overtime). While the Pens are dealing with a number of key injuries, the Isles are relatively healthy nearly two months into the season. This will only be New York's second game in the last six days so it does come in well-rested as well, having made the short trip from Philadelphia on Saturday. For the Penguins, this marks their third game in the last five days. Take New York (10*). |

11-18-19 | Thunder v. Clippers -9.5 | 88-90 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 22 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles minus the points over Oklahoma City at 10:35 pm et on Monday. This is a favorable spot for the Clippers as they aim to build off of Saturday's incredible 150-point outburst against Atlanta. That win snapped a two-game skid for Los Angeles so this is not time to get complacent. Note that the Thunder check in 17th in offensive rating and 25th in defensive rating over their last five games. That's not to mention their less than impressive 19th standing in pace rating over that stretch. Meanwhile, the Clips are top-12 in offensive rating and top-3 in defensive rating while also sitting an impressive sixth in pace rating. It should only be a matter of time before L.A. pulls away in this one. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Chiefs v. Chargers +5 | Top | 24-17 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 53 m | Show |
NFL AFC West Game of the Month. My selection is on Los Angeles plus the points over Kansas City at 8:15 pm et on Monday. We missed the mark (barely) with the Chargers last week as they fell by just two points in Oakland. I won't hesitate to go back to the well with Los Angeles here, however, even if this does appear to be an even tougher matchup. First of all, I'm not sure it actually is a tougher matchup. The Raiders are far better than anyone could have anticipated and last week the Chargers found that out first hand. Unlike the Raiders, the Chiefs don't possess a quality defense. Nor does Kansas City have a consistently productive ground attack. QB Patrick Mahomes returned from injury and looked very 'Mahomes-like' in last week's narrow loss in Tennessee, throwing for a season-high as far as pass yards goes. I simply feel that the Chargers, with their excellent offensive balance led by the re-emergence of RB Melvin Gordon, can go blow-for-blow with Andy Reid's Chiefs, just as they did in their most recent meeting last season - a wild 29-28 victory at Arrowhead Stadium on a Thursday night in December. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Bucks v. Bulls UNDER 228 | 115-101 | Win | 100 | 10 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Milwaukee and Chicago at 8:05 pm et on Monday. It may seem a little odd playing the 'under' in a game between the two teams that rank first and second in the league in pace rating over their last five games. But neither squad in is peak form offensively, with Milwaukee sitting a surprising 23rd in the league in offensive rating over its last five contests and Chicago nearly pulling up the rear in 29th. The Bucks check in second in defensive rating while the Bulls are a solid fifth in that department over their last five games. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Blazers v. Rockets -7 | 108-132 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on Houston minus the points over Portland at 8:05 pm et on Monday. I'll lay the points with the surging Rockets as they host the Blazers on Monday night. Portland is coming off a hard-fought road win in San Antonio two nights ago but should find the going a little tougher in this matchup. The Rockets check in top-10 in the league in offensive rating and first overall in defensive rating over their last five games. Not surprisingly they also land top-10 in pace rating. For the Blazers part, they barely land in the top half of the league in offensive rating, bottom-10 in defensive rating, and 16th in pace rating over their last five contests. Take Houston (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Bears v. Rams -6 | 7-17 | Win | 100 | 23 h 59 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles minus the points over Chicago at 8:20 pm et on Sunday. The Bears pulled out a 20-13 win over the Matt Stafford-less Lions last Sunday but now find themselves in a miserable spot traveling west to face the Rams in primetime on Sunday night. Chicago's offense is still broken as far as I'm concerned and the Rams have the ability to make the Bears completely one-dimensional by taking away their ground attack altogether. The addition of Jalen Ramsey gives the Rams the ability to take away their opponents' best weapon in the passing game and in this case, if they can limit WR Allen Robinson they should be able to absolutely cripple the Bears offense. Rams QB Jared Goff has been far from great this season and will likely be under duress for much of the night on Sunday. With that being said, I'm not sure Los Angeles will need to score points in bunches to pull away for a comfortable win here. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Winnipeg +3.5 v. Saskatchewan | 20-13 | Win | 100 | 79 h 55 m | Show | |
My selection is on Winnipeg plus the points over Saskatchewan at 4:30 pm et on Sunday. The Riders miserable 1-3 start to the season has long been forgotten as they've been one of the best teams in the CFL for months now, doing it largely on the strength of a stellar defense that has come up big time and time again. Here, however, I believe they're up against it facing a Blue Bombers squad that has really come together over the course of three consecutive battles with the Stampeders, culminating with last week's stunning 35-14 rout in Calgary. QB Zach Collaros has stepped in and given the offense a nice balance with Chris Streveler still contributing as well. Defensively, it doesn't get much better than holding Stamps QB Bo Levi Mitchell to 12-of-28 passing for 116 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions last week. I'm anticipating a tightly-contested affair all the way on Sunday and will gladly take the points with the Bombers. Take Winnipeg (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Edmonton v. Hamilton UNDER 50.5 | Top | 16-36 | Loss | -110 | 76 h 36 m | Show |
CFL Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'under' between Edmonton and Hamilton at 1 pm et on Sunday. Both regular season meetings between these two teams went 'over' the posted total we're dealing with on Sunday and the Eskimos are coming off a wild, high-scoring 37-29 win over Montreal last week to earn a spot in this Grey Cup semi-final matchup. I'll gladly take the contrarian route, however, and call for a lower-scoring game than expected as the Eskimos and Tiger-Cats do battle on Sunday afternoon in Hamilton. Eskimos QB Trevor Harris has appeared in just two games since the first week of September but certainly looked to be in excellent form in last week's win over the Alouettes. He was afforded a clean pocket for much of the afternoon and took full advantage, completing 36-of-39 passes for 421 yards and a touchdown. The fact that he was only able to throw one touchdown was telling, however, as the Eskimos have struggled to finish drives with 7's on the board for much of the season. Here, look for Harris to be under duress all afternoon long as the Esks take a big step up in class against the Ti-Cats defense. Hamilton QB Dane Evans has done a tremendous job leading the offense since taking over the starting job for an injured Jeremiah Masoli, but I do wonder how he'll handle the big stage on Sunday. Note that the Eskimos defense will be getting their third look at Evans since September 20th. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Edmonton v. Hamilton -5 | 16-36 | Win | 100 | 75 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on Hamilton minus the points over Edmonton at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Eskimos have gone winless in two meetings with the Tiger-Cats this season and while it's awfully tough to beat any opponent three times in the same season, I do think Hamilton will be up for the challenge on Sunday. The Ti-Cats defense has really stepped up down the stretch, allowing fewer than 20 points in seven of their last 10 games. With Edmonton struggling to finish drives with touchdown all season long, there's reason to believe the Hamilton defense will thrive once again on Sunday afternoon. Eskimos QB Trevor Harris was afforded a clean pocket all afternoon long in Montreal last week but won't be so fortunate here. The Ti-Cats have proven to have the ability to not only score on offense, but on special teams and defense as well. That could prove to be the difference here. Take Hamilton (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Texans v. Ravens -4 | 7-41 | Win | 100 | 16 h 49 m | Show | |
My selection is on Baltimore minus the points over Houston at 1 pm et on Sunday. While this is being pegged as a tightly-contested shootout between MVP candidates DeShaun Watson and Lamar Jackson, I expect it to fizzle with the Ravens imposing their will and winning this one going away. This is arguably the toughest matchup Watson has faced this season, on the road no less. I question whether head coach Bill O'Brien's play-calling can get them there against an elite opponent like the Ravens, to be completely honest. This is a game where the Texans defensive absences, most notably J.J. Watt will really come back to haunt them. At 6-3 I do consider Houston to be a bit of a paper tiger while Baltimore is the real deal, having already taken down the mighty Patriots. Take Baltimore (10*). |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Saints v. Bucs OVER 49.5 | Top | 34-17 | Win | 100 | 15 h 29 m | Show |
NFL NFC South Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between New Orleans and Tampa Bay at 1 pm et on Sunday. This game has shootout written all over it in on Sunday afternoon. The Saints got caught looking right past the Falcons last week as they could muster only nine points in a blowout loss, at home no less. This is an ideal bounce-back spot, however, as Drew Brees and the New Orleans offense should absolutely ether a weak Bucs defense. WR Michael Thomas has quietly been putting together a record-setting campaign and he should go off in this particular matchup. Meanwhile, the Saints defense is dealing with a number of key absences right now, the least of which being CB Marshon Lattimore, who would have likely shadowed Bucs standout WR Mike Evans. The New Orleans defense simply hasn't lived up to expectations this season and could be in for another rough ride against an increasingly aggressive Bucs offense on Sunday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-16-19 | UCLA v. Utah -21 | 3-49 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on Utah minus the points over UCLA at 8 pm et on Saturday. UCLA has strung together three straight wins to put itself back in the Bowl conversation but it faces an uphill battle, starting with Saturday's game at Utah. The Bruins have scored 30+ points in four straight contests but are highly unlikely to approach that number here. The Utes have given up a grand total of just 33 points in five home games this season. Their lone loss came way back in mid-September at USC. I like the consistency the Utes have shown on both sides of the football, with QB Tyler Huntley having thrown just one interception all season. By contrast, UCLA QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson already thrown a whopping eight picks. The last time these two teams met it was no contest as Utah rolled to a 41-10 victory last season. Expect another dominant performance from the Utes on Saturday. Take Utah (10*). |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Minnesota v. Iowa -3 | 19-23 | Win | 100 | 6 h 5 m | Show | |
My selection is on Iowa minus the points over Minnesota at 4 pm et on Saturday. This is obviously a massive letdown spot for Minnesota coming off that huge win over Penn State last Saturday. The Golden Gophers enter this game with a perfect 9-0 record but it's not as if they're been slaying giants all season. This will certainly be a tough test against a terrific Iowa defense that has held its own against the best of the best this season. The Hawkeyes check in 6-3 on the campaign but have dropped three of their last five overall. That has had more to do with their schedule than anything else as they've suffered losses at Michigan, vs. Penn State and last week by just two points at Wisconsin. I look for the Iowa offense to finally get going a bit today, while the defense does its thing and guides the Hawkeyes to a big victory. Take Iowa (10*). |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Troy -6.5 v. Texas State | Top | 63-27 | Win | 100 | 28 h 3 m | Show |
CFB Blowout Game of the Week. My selection is on Troy minus the points over Texas State at 3 pm et on Saturday. Troy has its work cut out for it in order to gain Bowl eligibility this season but it all starts with this very winnable game against Texas State. With the Trojans highly-unlikely to beat both Louisiana-Lafayette and Appalachian State over their final two games, this almost becomes a must-win. I'm confident we'll see the Trojans perform accordingly. If you follow my plays regularly, you know that I'm not very high on Texas State, even though it has shown up and battled on occasion this season, even managing to win three games outright. I still believe the Bobcats have one of the weakest offenses in the entire FBS. They did score 30 points in a win last week, but that came against lowly South Alabama (1-8). Troy possesses a far more dynamic offense with QB Kaleb Barker having thrown for over 300 yards on five different occasions, while tossing at least two touchdown passes in eight of nine games this season. RB DK Billingsley has made the most of relatively limited touches, rushing for over 100 yards on four different occasions. He's coming off his best performance of the season last time out, running for 163 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. The Trojans defense leaves a lot to be desired but I'm not convinced Texas State will be able to take full advantage. Take Troy (10*). |

11-15-19 | Celtics -7.5 v. Warriors | Top | 105-100 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
NBA Non-Conference Game of the Month. My selection is on Boston minus the points over Golden State at 10:35 pm et on Friday. This is the start of a five-game western road swing for the Celtics as they look to extend their winning streak to 10 games and I'm confident we'll see them do so in convincing fashion on Friday night. Note that Boston ranks tops in the league in offensive rating over its last five games, and by a considerable margin. Golden State on the other hand sits 28th over that same stretch. Really the only thing the Warriors have going for them right now is the fact that they've been pushing the tempo, sitting 12th in pace rating over their last five contests, but that should only open the door for the Celtics to really get loose offensively. Boston is in the top half of the league in defensive rating over its last five games while Golden State is just one spot shy of pulling up the rear, sitting 29th in that department. Take Boston (10*). |
|||||||
11-15-19 | Louisiana Tech v. Marshall UNDER 55 | Top | 10-31 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
My selection is on the 'under' between Louisiana Tech and Marshall at 7 pm et on Friday. Louisiana Tech has been absolutely mowing down the competition in C-USA play, but has also faced an extremely light schedule recently. Since the start of October, the Bulldogs have gone bye week, UMass, Southern Miss, UTEP and North Texas. Those four opponents represent four of the weakest defensive teams in the country. While the Bulldogs have absolutely scored at will over the last month, this is the same team that was held to 20 points against Grambling State and put up only 23 points at Rice. Marshall isn't likely to blow the doors off of Louisiana Tech here, and that should lend itself to a lower-scoring affair than the oddsmakers are calling for. The Thundering Herd were in an absolute smash spot offensively last time out against Rice, but could only muster 20 points. QB Isaiah Green has proven to be a game manager more than anything else, throwing for fewer than 270 yards in all but one game this season, while managing more than single touchdown pass on just three occasions. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Nets v. Nuggets OVER 221.5 | 93-101 | Loss | -113 | 12 h 29 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Brooklyn and Denver at 10:35 pm et on Thursday. I'll back the 'over' in Denver on Thursday night. Brooklyn checks in ranking sixth in the league in offensive rating and fourth in pace rating over its last five games. This is certainly not an ideal matchup, however, as the Nets face a Nuggets squad that ranks third in the league in defensive rating over that same stretch. I do feel that given the pace and efficiency we've seen from Brooklyn offensively in recent games that it will be able to find some success in this matchup, noting that there's a good chance it will be in comeback mode much of the way. Denver ranks a miserable 23rd in the league in offensive rating and 29th in pace rating over its last five contests but this is a true 'get right' spot against a Nets squad that ranks 28th in defensive rating over that same stretch. Take the over (10*). |

11-14-19 | Steelers +3 v. Browns | Top | 7-21 | Loss | -116 | 12 h 20 m | Show |
NFL AFC North Game of the Month. My selection is on Pittsburgh plus the points over Cleveland at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. I have no confidence in the Browns to string together consecutive wins at this stage of the season. Meanwhile, the Steelers have found their identity as a hard-nosed team that runs the football and plays an aggressive, opportunistic brand of defense. Pittsburgh QB Mason Rudolph certainly doesn't instill a great deal of confidence, but he is expected to have RB James Conner back at his disposal on Thursday night and WR JuJu Smith-Schuster is in line for a big breakout performance against a Browns defense that has had no success defending receivers in the slot. The Browns have a quality defense and should be able to get after Rudolph in this one, but what about their offense? It's been a sputtering, turnover-prone unit and while RB Kareem Hunt gave them a boost in his debut, I'm not ready to say that the offense is back. Take Pittsburgh (10*). |
|||||||
11-14-19 | North Carolina v. Pittsburgh OVER 50 | 27-34 | Win | 100 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between North Carolina and Pittsburgh at 8 pm et on Thursday. Both of these teams come in well-rested having not played since November 2nd, giving them ample time to gameplan for this key mid-November showdown. North Carolina QB Sam Howell has thrown for over 340 yards in three of his last four games, compiling an incredible 15 touchdown passes over that stretch. That's not to mention the Tar Heels very capable backfield tandem of Javonte Williams and Michael Carter. Pitt's offense has left a lot to be desired over its last few games, all of the lower-scoring variety, but I expect a big bounce-back here. QB Kenny Pickett has thrown four interceptions over his last two games, but I don't expect him to simply be a game manager in this contest. The Panthers know they'll need to go on the attack to keep pace with an improving Tar Heels offense, and I look for them to find some success with the Pickett-to-Ffrench connection. Maurice Ffrench hasn't hauled in a touchdown in his last two games, but should find the end zone against a beatable Tar Heels secondary here. Take the over (10*). |

11-14-19 | Buffalo -5.5 v. Kent State | 27-30 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 52 m | Show | |
My selection is on Buffalo minus the points over Kent State at 7 pm et on Thursday. I've said it on a few occasions this season and I'll say it again here; Kent State is one of the nation's weakest teams, particularly on the defensive side of the football, and I look for the Golden Flashes to get gashed once again here. Most jumped off the Buffalo bandwagon early this season as the Bulls dropped their first two MAC contests. Since then, all they've done is reel off three straight wins, outscoring the opposition by an incredible 107-34 margin. Of course their opposition has left a lot to be desired but you can only play the teams in front of you, and they catch another favorable matchup here, noting that the Bulls routed the Golden Flashes 48-14 in their most recent meeting last November. Buffalo will undoubtedly gain Bowl eligibility at some point, but it would certainly rather take care of that right here tonight. Take Buffalo (10*). |

11-13-19 | Northern Illinois v. Toledo UNDER 53 | 31-28 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Northern Illinois and Toledo at 8 pm et on Wednesday. Toledo has been involved in back-to-back high-scoring shootouts, flaming a couple of bad defenses in Eastern Michigan and Kent State in posting consecutive victories. I expect the Rockets to face a little more resistance against rival Northern Illinois here. The Huskies are fresh off a beatdown at the hands of Central Michigan but will undoubtedly get up for this game, knowing they need to run the table over their final three games to become Bowl eligible. With a win here, that would certainly still be well within the realm of possibility, noting they have two home games to close out the regular season. Note that Northern Illinois has held five of nine opponents this season to 27 points or less. The Huskies biggest issue has been their lack of consistent offensive production, scoring 24 points or less in seven of nine contests. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-13-19 | Wizards v. Celtics OVER 225.5 | 133-140 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Washington and Boston at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. I like the way this one sets up as a track meet at TD Garden on Wednesday night. The Wizards check in ranking seventh in the league in offensive rating over their last five games while sitting dead last in defensive rating over that same stretch. While Boston does rank eighth in defensive rating over its last five, I think the Wiz can overcome that somewhat and contribute to our cause thanks to their up-tempo style of play. Washington sits fifth in the league in pace rating over its last five games. For the Celtics part, they rank third in offensive rating over their last five and should be able to blowtorch a struggling Wiz defense here. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-12-19 | Eastern Michigan v. Akron OVER 46 | 42-14 | Win | 100 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Eastern Michigan and Akron at 6 pm et on Tuesday. Akron has scored a grand total of just nine points over its last four games but here the Zips have a fine opportunity to bust out against a weak Eastern Michigan defense. The Eagles have allowed 30+ points in five of nine contests this season, while also giving up 29 points against FCS opponent Central Connecticut State. Prior to its current lull, Akron had scored 60 points over its previous three games. Defensively, the Zips have only managed to limit their points allowed thanks to game script. Make no mistake, this is one of the worst defensive teams in the nation. Eastern Michigan is in a clear 'get-right' spot offensively after getting trounced by Buffalo at home last time out. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
11-11-19 | Seahawks +6.5 v. 49ers | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 35 h 9 m | Show | |
My selection is on Seattle plus the points over San Francisco at 8:15 pm et on Monday. The 49ers have a giant target on their backs now as they remain undefeated heading into the second week of November. While the Seahawks and their lagging defense will face a tough challenge here, I'm confident they can at the very least take the Niners down to the wire in Santa Clara. We saw some vulnerability from the Niners defense last week against Arizona and I expect that to continue to be the storyline here on Monday as the Seahawks should find considerable success both on the ground and through the air. The San Francisco run defense in particular is in a tough spot with LB Kwon Alexander sidelined for the season with torn pec. That really opens things up for the Seahawks, whose offense is far more effective when it is able to mix in consistent gains on the ground. Offensively, the 49ers are coming off a fine performance but this is by no means a juggernaut. The Seahawks defense has been a swinging gate at times, but should rise to the occasion in this divisional affair. Take Seattle (10*). |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Vikings v. Cowboys -3 | 28-24 | Loss | -124 | 11 h 24 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas minus the points over Minnesota at 8:20 pm et on Sunday. The Cowboys are on an uptick right now fresh off a win over the Giants on Monday night. They're in another favorable spot here, back at home in a primetime affair against a solid but vulnerable Vikings squad. I expect the Minnesota offense to struggle at times in this one as it tries to deal with a healthy and improving Cowboys defense. Offensively, Dallas went through a bit of a lull but things appear to be back in order now and at home in a favored role, I look for it to open things up and ultimately pull away for a convincing victory on Sunday night. Take Dallas (10*). |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Giants v. Jets +3 | Top | 27-34 | Win | 100 | 15 h 44 m | Show |
NFL Game of the Week. My selection is on the Jets plus the points over the Giants at 1 pm et on Sunday. Things literally can't get any worse for the Jets after they lost at the hands of the winless, supposedly taking Dolphins last week in Miami. I fully expect to see Gang Green bounce back against the rival Giants on Sunday, noting we cashed a ticket fading Big Blue just this past Monday night with the Cowboys. This is an absolute smash spot for the Jets offense against a vulnerable Giants defense playing on a short week. Jets QB Sam Darnold has not played well at all but I still believe he has the tools to succeed in the NFL and I'm confident he'll enjoy a breakout performance against the G-Men and their non-existent pass rush and swiss cheese secondary. Not only is Darnold and the Jets passing game in line for a bounce-back but we should see a big performance from RB Le'Veon Bell as well. Game script kept him from exploding against the Dolphins last Sunday but if the Jets are able to build a lead here, Bell should go off. Take the Jets (10*). |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Tennessee v. Kentucky -1 | 17-13 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on Kentucky minus the points over Tennessee at 7:30 pm et on Saturday. Kentucky controls its own destiny as far as Bowl eligibility goes with a relatively light schedule remaining. The Wildcats have won two of their last three games following a three-game slide and enter this contest off their bye week. While they were idle last week, Tennessee was steamrolling a solid UAB squad by a 30-7 score at home. Even off back-to-back wins, I'm not convinced the Vols are all the way back after a rough start to the season. With only three games left on the schedule and in need of two victories, they're facing an uphill battle toward Bowl eligibility. When these two teams met last year the Vols secured a 24-7 victory but I won't be surprised if the script is flipped this time around. Take Kentucky (10*). |
|||||||
11-09-19 | LSU v. Alabama -5.5 | 46-41 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 17 m | Show | |
My selection is on Alabama minus the points over LSU at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. We've picked our spots going against the Crimson Tide in recent years, but not during the regular season. Once again, I look for Alabama to prove itself in this massive showdown with LSU. Yes, this is the best Tigers squad we've seen in years but I'm not sure that means they can hang with the Tide for 60 minutes. The key here should be the Alabama defense, as it will clamp down on LSU QB Joe Burrow. The Tigers haven't had to play from behind much at all this season but that's almost a certainty on Saturday afternoon at Bryant-Denny Stadium. All indications are that Alabama will have Tua back at its disposal and I look for him to lead the Tide to another convincing win over an SEC rival. Take Alabama (10*). |
|||||||
11-09-19 | UTSA v. Old Dominion UNDER 43.5 | Top | 24-23 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 3 m | Show |
CFB Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between UTSA and Old Dominion at 2 pm et on Saturday. I'm not anticipating much in the way of offensive fireworks in this matchup on Saturday afternoon. The UTSA defense hasn't been performing well lately but has also faced the likes of UAB and Texas A&M in two of its last three games. Here, it takes a big step down in class against a punchless Old Dominion offense. The Monarchs battled hard but ultimately fell a touchdown short in a 24-17 setback at Florida International last week. ODU has now been held to 17 points or less in five consecutive games. The Monarchs haven't always been stout defensively this season but catch a favorable matchup against a banged-up and talent-shy Roadrunners offense. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-08-19 | Washington v. Oregon State +10.5 | 19-7 | Loss | -112 | 13 h 15 m | Show | |
CFB Pac-12 Game of the Month. My selection is on Oregon State plus the points over Washington at 10:30 pm et on Friday. This isn't the same Washington squad we've seen in years past, as evidenced by the fact that the Huskies have already dropped four games in Pac-12 play. They should be on upset alert again on Friday night as they face an upstart Oregon State squad that needs two victories in its final four games to become Bowl eligible. Given it still has to play Arizona State, Washington State and Oregon, with the latter two matchups coming on the road, this game is virtually a must-win. The Beavers are fresh off a 56-point explosion at Arizona last week. While their defense leaves a lot to be desired, their offense has shown the ability to score at will. I'm comfortable grabbing a generous helping of points with the home side here. Take Oregon State (10*). |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Heat v. Suns UNDER 219 | 124-108 | Loss | -108 | 15 h 42 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Miami and Phoenix at 9:05 pm et on Thursday. I like the way this one sets up as a lower-scoring affair than the oddsmakers are calling for on Thursday night. Miami checks in an impressive fifth in the league in defensive rating over its last five games while sitting 17th in pace rating over that same stretch. On the flip side, the Heat rank bottom 10 in the league in offensive rating over their last five contests. The upstart Suns rank ninth in offensive rating over that same stretch but it's also worth noting they're surprisingly in the top half of the league in defensive rating. They will look to push the tempo here, but I'm not anticipating a track meet. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Chargers v. Raiders | Top | 24-26 | Loss | -123 | 25 h 31 m | Show |
NFL TNF Game of the Month. My selection is on Los Angeles over Oakland at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. The Chargers have suddenly found their footing, registering back-to-back wins at Chicago and at home against Green Bay and I look for them to keep it rolling as they face the rival Raiders in Oakland on Thursday night. I really like the way things have come together for the previously underachieving Chargers offense, most notably with RB Melvin Gordon busting out with a big performance against the Packers last Sunday. The door is wide open for this unit to really explode against a beatable Raiders defense on a short week. Oakland does pose a challenge with its own emerging offense but I'm confident the Chargers defense will rise to the occasion. RB Josh Jacobs is the front-runner for offensive rookie of the year but the offense can still only go as far as QB Derek Carr takes it as far as I'm concerned. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
11-06-19 | Bucks +1 v. Clippers | 129-124 | Win | 100 | 14 h 47 m | Show | |
My selection is on Milwaukee plus the points over Los Angeles at 10:05 pm et on Wednesday. I fully expect to see the Bucks take it to the Clippers on Wednesday night at Staples Center. Milwaukee checks in ranking first in offensive rating and sixth in defensive rating over its last five games. It also ranks ninth in the league in pace rating over that same stretch. Meanwhile, the Clippers sit in the middle of the pack in both offensive and defensive rating over their last five games and bottom-eight in pace rating. Take Milwaukee (10*). |
|||||||
11-05-19 | Kent State v. Toledo -6.5 | 33-35 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
My selection is on Toledo minus the points over Kent State at 7 pm et on Tuesday. Toledo hasn't been very good since losing QB Mitchell Guadagni to injury but it is coming off a much-needed win over Eastern Michigan last time out and I look for it to keep things rolling at home against Kent State in another big MAC affair on Tuesday night. The key here will be the Rockets ground attack. They have a dynamic running game that should be able to control proceedings against the Golden Flashes. Kent State has a rather punchless offense and while the Flashes have faced a pretty tough schedule to be sure, I simply feel they're one of the weakest teams in the MAC and the nation. We're being asked to lay a reasonable number with the superior team at home. Take Toledo (10*). |
|||||||
11-04-19 | Cowboys -6.5 v. Giants | 37-18 | Win | 100 | 14 h 31 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas minus the points over New York at 8:15 pm et on Monday. It's been a disappointing campaign so far for the Cowboys but they remain in the driver's seat in the NFC East and coming off their bye week I look for them to handle the Giants at the Meadowlands on Monday night. I have no confidence in the Giants defense to slow the Cowboys offense here. Dallas got healthy on its offensive line thanks to the bye and that should open the door for QB Dak Prescott and RB Ezekiel Elliott to turn in monster performances here. Saquon Barkley will undoubtedly get his, just as he did in the first meeting between these two teams this season, but I'm not convinced rookie QB Daniel Jones will follow suit. Dallas is a perfect 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings in this series, including a win here when it rested its starters in Week 17 last year. Take Dallas (10*). |
|||||||
11-03-19 | Browns v. Broncos +4.5 | 19-24 | Win | 100 | 21 h 43 m | Show | |
My selection is on Denver plus the points over Cleveland at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. I really like the value we're getting with the Broncos as a home underdog on Sunday afternoon against the disjointed Browns. Cleveland really has no business laying points against anyone right now. It hasn't lived up to expectations on either side of the football and will likely have trouble traveling to altitude in Denver on Sunday. The Broncos have an efficient running game and a solid defense, a recipe for success as a home underdog. Yes, QB Joe Flacco is sidelined but is backup Brandon Allen really a downgrade? Flacco simply hasn't been a good fit in this offense. I like the upside of the Broncos receiving corps led by Courtland Sutton. Look for Denver to do enough to stay inside the number on Sunday. Take Denver (10*). |
|||||||
11-03-19 | Packers v. Chargers +4 | 11-26 | Win | 100 | 21 h 36 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles plus the points over Green Bay at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. Everyone is extremely high on the Packers right now, and for good reason as they're fresh off another statement road win in Kansas City last Sunday night. I just don't like the way this spot sets up for Aaron Rodgers and co. as they stay on the road and head to the west coast to face what has to be a desperate Chargers squad on Sunday. Los Angeles has been highly disappointing this season but there's no question the Chargers still have the talent on board to turn things around. This is obviously a huge step-up spot in a non-conference tilt with a marquee opponent. I'm confident we'll see the Chargers ground attack really get rolling against a beatable Packers run defense. That should set the tone for the rest of the Los Angeles offense, and effectively open things up for QB Philip Rivers. The Chargers defense hasn't been great but could be catching the Packers in a letdown spot off last Sunday night's peak performance. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
11-03-19 | Jets -3 v. Dolphins | Top | 18-26 | Loss | -117 | 17 h 24 m | Show |
NFL AFC Game of the Year. My selection is on New York minus the points over Miami at 1 pm et on Sunday. Everyone is down on the Jets right now but this is a true 'get right' spot against the tanking Dolphins in Miami, and I look for Adam Gase's squad to take full advantage. I absolutely love the 'squeaky wheel' narrative with elite RB Le'Veon Bell calling for more work in advance of Sunday's matchup. Bell will undoubtedly get fed in this one and should absolutely dominate a non-existent Dolphins run defense. QB Sam Darnold has been ridiculed after his 'seeing ghosts' appearance on Monday Night Football but he should have no trouble carving up the Fins struggling secondary on Sunday afternoon. Meanwhile, the Jets defense is serviceable against the Miami offense - which took another step back in a miserable second half in Pittsburgh on Monday night. Take New York (10*). |
|||||||
11-02-19 | Texas State v. UL-Lafayette -22.5 | 3-31 | Win | 100 | 19 h 28 m | Show | |
My selection is on Louisiana-Lafayette minus the points over Texas State at 5 pm et on Saturday. We cashed a ticket fading Texas State last Saturday against Arkansas State and I won’t hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. The Bobcats have two wins to their credit this season but I still believe they’re one of the weakest teams in FBS. Not surprisingly, their limited offense struggled to get anything going last Saturday against the Red Wolves, scoring a pair of second quarter touchdowns but that was it. They’ll be hard-pressed to improve on that performance against a good Ragin’ Cajuns defense here. Louisiana-Lafayette is fresh off its bye week, which came on the heels of a big 17-point road win over rival Arkansas State. RB Trey Ragas’ health is in question as he recovers from an ankle injury but even if he can’t go, the Ragin’ Cajuns still have a terrific stable of dynamic running backs to lean on. I’m confident we’ll see them build an early lead in this one and let their defense and ground attack take care of the rest, ultimately pulling away for a cover on Saturday. Take Louisiana-Lafayette (10*). |
|||||||
11-02-19 | TCU v. Oklahoma State UNDER 59 | 27-34 | Loss | -105 | 18 h 1 m | Show | |
My selection is on the ‘under’ between TCU and Oklahoma State at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. TCU is coming off a huge 37-27 win over Texas last Saturday and fresh off that offensive breakout, most are expecting a shootout in Stillwater this week. I’m not so easily convinced. Keep in mind, prior to last week’s win, the Horned Frogs had scored just 41 points combined in dropping back-to-back games against Iowa State and Kansas State – both on the road. Oklahoma State by no means possesses an elite defense but I do think the Cowboys can keep the Horned Frogs inconsistent offense in check on Saturday. On the flip side, the TCU defense has shown signs of turning things around over the last couple of weeks. They didn’t give up a touchdown until four minutes into the second quarter last week against Texas and when it mattered most they stepped up, allowing just one second half touchdown. The Horned Frogs will undoubtedly have their hands full trying to slow down dynamic Cowboys RB Chuba Hubbard on Saturday but it’s worth noting that they’ve allowed just one 100+ yard rusher this season and that was Iowa State QB Brock Purdy, who gained 102 yards on the ground against them. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-02-19 | Marshall -11.5 v. Rice | 20-7 | Win | 100 | 18 h 60 m | Show | |
My selection is on Marshall minus the points over Rice at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. This was a blowout last year as Marshall rolled to a 41-14 victory and I’m expecting more of the same on Saturday. Rice checks in 0-8 on the campaign but the fact that it has at least kept things somewhat competitive helps keep the line in check here. RB Aston Walter suffered a shoulder injury last week and while he is expected to play, he won’t be at full strength. You can be sure the Thundering Herd have been keying their defensive gameplan on Walter as he’s proven to be the Owls only true playmaker on offense this season. Marshall hasn’t been able to take a breath in a few weeks, coming off back-to-back tightly-contested affairs against Florida Atlantic and Western Kentucky (it won both games). The Thundering Herd have faced a truly difficult schedule to this point but now get four straight winnable games to close out the season to improve their Bowl positioning. Look for them to take full advantage of this blowout waiting to happen against one of the nation’s weakest FBS teams. Take Marshall (10*). |
|||||||
11-02-19 | Old Dominion v. Florida International -17.5 | Top | 17-24 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 34 m | Show |
CFB C-USA Game of the Year. My selection is on Florida International minus the points over Old Dominion at 12 noon et on Saturday. I love the bounce back spot for FIU here as it returns home following a beatdown at the hands of Middle Tennessee State last week. The loss dropped the Panthers to 4-4 on the season but they remain very much in contention for a Bowl game. That certainly depends on getting a win here, and I’m confident we’ll see them secure the victory in convincing fashion. At 1-7, Old Dominion is a true doormat this season. The Monarchs lone victory came back in August against FCS squad Norfolk State. They check into this one having scored just one offensive touchdown in their last 11 quarters of football. FIU has certainly shown blowout potential here at home this season, where it owns victories by 13, 44, 25 and 15-point margins, its lone home loss coming against a quality opponent in Western Kentucky – a game in which it covered the spread. Note that Panthers QB James Morgan has been quietly efficient, throwing seven touchdowns and no interceptions over his last four games. Meanwhile, RB Anthony Jones has rushed for 421 yards on just 72 carries, while finding the end zone five times over that same stretch. The Panthers are heavily favored for a reason in this early start matchup. I’ll lay the points. Take Florida International (10*). |
|||||||
11-02-19 | Northern Illinois v. Central Michigan UNDER 51 | 10-48 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on the ‘under’ between Northern Illinois and Central Michigan at 12 noon et on Saturday. We missed the mark with the ‘under’ in Northern Illinois’ last game, a 49-0 rout of lowly Akron last Saturday. I won’t hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here, however. The Huskies offense has been inconsistent this season and will certainly be stepping up in class here off the win over the Zips. I’m confident we’ll see them keep their offensive gameplan focused on the ground where RB Tre Harbison has been terrific. That strategy should help keep the chains, and more important for us, the clock moving. Central Michigan entered last week’s date with Buffalo on a serious roll offensively but that had more to do with the level of opposition it had faced through the first three weeks of October than anything else (the Chippewas faced Eastern Michigan, New Mexico State and Bowling Green over a three-week stretch). Last week, the Chips could only manage 20 points in a blowout loss to Buffalo, turning the football over four times in the process. Much like NIU, I look for CMU to keep the football on the ground for much of the afternoon on Saturday, with RB Jonathan Ward having rushed for over 100 yards in four of his last five games. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
11-01-19 | Navy v. Connecticut UNDER 55 | Top | 56-10 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 36 m | Show |
CFB AAC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Navy and Connecticut at 8 pm et on Friday. We missed the mark with the 'under' in Navy's high-scoring win over Tulane last week but I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play as the Midshipmen hit the road to face lowly UConn on a short week. Last week's high-scoring result was certainly game script dependent as Tulane simply couldn't stop the Navy offense early on, digging a 24-0 hole just five minutes into the second quarter. From there things really opened up. I expect a different story to unfold here. Connecticut stunningly put up 56 points in a win at UMass last week but will face a much tougher challenge here. Note that prior to last week's performance, the Huskies had scored 22 points or less in five straight games and had topped out at 24 points, that coming in a season-opening win over FCS squad Wagner. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-31-19 | 49ers v. Cardinals +10.5 | 28-25 | Win | 100 | 13 h 3 m | Show | |
My selection is on Arizona plus the points over San Francisco at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. Most believe a 49ers win is a foregone conclusion in this one as San Francisco checks in with an unblemished record on the season while the Cardinals are coming off a beatdown at the hands of the Saints in New Orleans last Sunday. I don't believe the Niners are built to cover these big pointspreads, however, and here will face an improving Arizona squad that has won three of its last four games and hasn't allowed a first quarter touchdown in its last two contests. The Cards are likely going to be missing their top two running backs for this one but did acquire Kenyon Drake from the Dolphins earlier this week and it really hasn't mattered who they have plugged in at running back, they have performed well. San Francisco will be content to win this division road game, let alone cover the spread. We'll grab the points with a hungry Cards squad that has gone an impressive 5-3 ATS to date. Take Arizona (10*). |
|||||||
10-30-19 | Pacers v. Nets -3.5 | 118-108 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
My selection is on Brooklyn minus the points over Indiana at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. The Pacers are off to a winless start through three games and I don't see them finally getting into the win column in Brooklyn on Wednesday. Indiana checks in a miserable 22nd in the league in offensive rating and it has been even worse at the defensive end of the floor, ranking 25th in defensive rating. That's not to mention the fact the Pacers sit second-last in terms of pace rating. The Nets figure to take full advantage, noting that they rank fifth in the league in pace rating while sitting a solid eighth in offensive rating through their first three games. Take Brooklyn (10*). |
|||||||
10-29-19 | Grizzlies v. Lakers -11.5 | 91-120 | Win | 100 | 12 h 30 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles minus the points over Memphis at 10:35 pm et on Tuesday. I don't like the setup for the Grizzlies in this one as they head to Los Angeles to take on the Lakers. This is an interesting matchup as the Grizzlies rank second in the league in pace rating while the Lakers check in second to last. I see this game going one of two ways. Either the Grizz try to push the tempo and get run out of the gym as the Lakers check in top 10 in the league in offensive rating while the Grizzlies are bottom-eight in defensive rating. Or the Lakers impose their will and slow this game to a crawl while the Memphis 26th ranked offensive rating rears its ugly head. Either way, I look for Los Angeles to cover the number. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
10-28-19 | Dolphins v. Steelers OVER 43 | 14-27 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 26 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Miami and Pittsburgh at 8:15 pm et on Monday. I'll keep it simple with my analysis of this play on Monday night. Both offenses have struggled at times this season, due to injuries and otherwise but I do feel the two units have some upside heading into this one. The Dolphins were finally able to get things going a little bit last week, scoring 21 points against a good defense in Buffalo. WR Davante Parker has now scored a touchdown in three straight games which is saying something for an offense that couldn't do anything earlier in the campaign. RB Kenyon Drake didn't travel with the team as he is likely to be traded before the deadline but his absence doesn't concern me all that much. Look for the Fins to do what they can to move the football through the air in this particular matchup. The Steelers are in a smash spot offensively against an awful, undermanned Miami defense. Pittsburgh will get QB Mason Rudolph back under center following its bye week and I'm confident he'll can march the offense up and down the field against a very beatable opponent. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
10-27-19 | Packers v. Chiefs +5 | 31-24 | Loss | -102 | 26 h 23 m | Show | |
My selection is on Kansas City plus the points over Green Bay at 8:20 pm et on Sunday. The last time we saw the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football they suffered a shocking loss to the Colts. That was with Patrick Mahomes at the helm. Now Kansas City enters this primetime showdown with journeyman QB Matt Moore under center and few are giving it much of a chance against the red hot Packers. I don't expect the Chiefs to simply roll over. Kansas City has been all over opposing quarterbacks this season and Sunday should be no different against the Packers mediocre offensive line. Note that the Chiefs will have DT Chris Jones back at their disposal, and his presence should really limit the Packers ability to rip off big gains on the ground. Green Bay's passing game has held up well in WR DaVante Adams absence, but this could be the contest where that starts to turn. Defensively, the Packers have been abused by opposing rushing attacks, allowing just a tick shy of five yards per rush this season. That opens the door for the Chiefs limited offense in the absence of Mahomes. As we saw last Thursday night against an elite defense in Denver, even Matt Moore is able to find some success with the talent of WR Tyreek Hill on the field. I'm not sure the Chiefs offense will even be asked to do too much to keep this one competitive, but they might just come through regardless. Take Kansas City (10*). |

10-27-19 | Raiders v. Texans -6 | Top | 24-27 | Loss | -109 | 23 h 34 m | Show |
NFL Non-Division Game of the Month. My selection is on Houston minus the points over Oakland at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. The Raiders are in a really tough spot here, still on the road at the tail-end of what has been an excruciatingly long stretch of games away from home and coming off an epic beatdown at the hands of the Packers last Sunday. Things don't figure to get any easier in Houston on Sunday as the Texans enter a terrific bounce-back spot off last week's divisional loss in Indianapolis. QB DeShaun Watson and the Texans offense should have a field day against the Raiders undermanned defense, which dealt top CB Gareon Conley to Houston earlier in the week. The Raiders haven't exactly waved the white flag just yet, but at 3-3 the time is coming. Offensively, Oakland has been better than expected but with RB Josh Jacobs limited and possibly even sidelined by a shoulder injury, it will be in a really difficult situation here. Jacobs has been a dynamic playmaker but the Raiders don't have much depth in the backfield. While I'm not all that high on the Texans defense, I do think they'll be playing from ahead for much of the day on Sunday, and can gameplan aggressively against mistake-prone QB Derek Carr. Look for Houston to eventually stretch out the margin in this one. Take Houston (10*). |

10-27-19 | Panthers v. 49ers UNDER 41.5 | 13-51 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 22 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Carolina and San Francisco at 4:05 pm et on Sunday. The Panthers are coming off a wild, high-scoring affair in London two weeks ago as they routed the Bucs in a key divisional win. Here, Carolina hits the road to face the upstart 49ers and could be in for a rough ride against one of the best defensive teams in the league. San Francisco is allowing just over four yards per rush this season and should be able to effectively limit Panthers do-it-all RB Christian McCaffrey. The 49ers pass defense just doesn't give up big plays and that sets them up well against the Panthers downfield passing game led by elite athletes Curtis Samuel and D.J. Moore. I don't expect the Carolina defense to roll over. The Panthers 'd' catches a favorable matchup against a 49ers offense that has been good, but certainly not great this season. QB Jimmy Garoppolo should be under pressure for much of the afternoon with offensive linemen Joe Staley and Mike McGlinchey still sidelined. While the Panthers have given up their share of yardage to opposing ground games, the 49ers backfield isn't all that imposing. Expect a tightly-contested affair. Take the under (10*). |

10-27-19 | Jets +7.5 v. Jaguars | Top | 15-29 | Loss | -140 | 20 h 35 m | Show |
NFL AFC Game of the Month. My selection is on New York plus the points over Jacksonville at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Jets are coming off a dreadful performance on both sides of the football on Monday night against the Patriots. I do feel they'll bounce back here, however, as they head to Jacksonville to face the Jaguars. The Jags defense has been exploited by opposing running backs this season as they check in allowing just shy of five yards per rush. Off a poor offensive showing on Monday, look for the Jets to feed RB Le'Veon Bell in this one. On the flip side, the Jets defense has been exceptional against the run, allowing just north of 3.2 yards per rush. That should severely limit what the Jags are able to do offensively, as despite all the Gardner Minshew hype, QB Leonard Fournette has been, and will continue to be the key to their offense. Take New York (10*). |

10-27-19 | Bengals v. Rams -11 | 10-24 | Win | 100 | 19 h 25 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles minus the points over Cincinnati at 1 pm et on Sunday. This one has blowout written all over it as the Rams aim to follow-up last week's 'get right' win over Atlanta and head across the pond for what should be a much-needed distraction in what has been a bit of a tumultuous start to the season. The Bengals are awful. They can't stop the run, continue to deal with key injuries in the secondary, and sport an uneven offense that has been completely handicapped by an ineffictive offensive line. We can count on Rams QB Jared Goff to turn in a second straight solid performance facing little pressure against a non-existent Cincinnati pass rush. Meanwhile, the Rams backfield tandem of Todd Gurley and Darrell Henderson should run wild against a Bengals defense that allows just shy of five yards per rush this season, effectively putting this game away in the second half. Take Los Angeles (10*). |
|||||||
10-26-19 | Notre Dame v. Michigan UNDER 51.5 | 14-45 | Loss | -109 | 30 h 1 m | Show | |
My selection is on the ‘under’ between Notre Dame and Michigan at 7:30 pm et on Saturday. We won with the ‘under’ when these two teams hooked up to kick off the season last year and I’ll make the same play here. The Irish are coming off three consecutive relatively high-scoring affairs in which they put up a combined 117 points. I’m not counting on QB Ian Book and the Notre Dame offense to bust out again here, however. Michigan has one of the best defenses in the country, and will certainly be up for this showdown at the Big House. I’m confident we’ll see the Irish lean heavily on RB Tony Jones Jr. off three straight 100+ yard rushing performances but he’ll be stepping up in competition after running all over Virginia, Bowling Green and USC. We’ve already seen the Wolverines offense get stymied on a number of occasions this season and should expect no different here. I don’t think we’ll see Jim Harbaugh throw QB Shea Patterson to the wolves here. Look for him to once again be asked to manage the game and avoid the big mistakes against an opportunistic Irish defense. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-26-19 | Texas State v. Arkansas State -11 | Top | 14-38 | Win | 100 | 29 h 18 m | Show |
CFB Sun Belt Game of the Year. My selection is on Arkansas State minus the points over Texas State at 7 pm et on Saturday. Texas State has somewhat surprisingly held its own in most games this season but still checks in sporting a 2-4 record. Arkansas State has been up and down and comes into this one off of back-to-back losses. Notably, last week’s 17-point loss on paper could have really gone either away as Louisiana-Lafayette pulled away with a couple of late touchdowns. I do still feel the Red Wolves are one of the better teams in the Sun Belt and if they have their sights set on Bowl eligibility, this is a game they need to get. I expect them to win this one comfortably. QB Layne Hatcher has thrown for 10 touchdowns over his last game and last week we saw RB Marcel Murray carry a full workload, running 35 times for 164 yards while adding three catches. Texas State QB Gresch Jensen suffered a concussion last week and the Bobcats top rusher Caleb Twyford is actually a wide receiver that has run for more than 78 yards only once this season. Arkansas State took this matchup 33-7 last season and I’m anticipating another blowout here. Take Arkansas State (10*). |

10-26-19 | Texas v. TCU UNDER 57 | 27-37 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on the ‘under’ between Texas and TCU at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. We won with the ‘under’ in TCU’s loss at Kansas State last week and I won’t hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. The Horned Frogs didn’t find the end zone until the second quarter in last week’s contest, and when the game was on the line, couldn’t score a single touchdown in the game’s final 23+ minutes. The fact is, TCU has had considerable offensive success in just two of five games this season and one of those came against lowly Kansas, who Texas hung 50 points on last week. The Longhorns know they’ll need to be better defensively after giving up a stunning 48 points against the Jayhawks last Saturday. I’m confident they’ll respond favorably here after holding TCU to just 16 points in last year’s matchup. Note that just two weeks ago, Texas held mighty Oklahoma out of the end zone from just under 10 minutes left in the first quarter until midway through the third quarter. The Longhorns may not have an elite defense this season, but it’s not as if they’re facing an offensive juggernaut on Saturday. Take the under (10*). |

10-26-19 | Tulane v. Navy UNDER 58 | Top | 38-41 | Loss | -117 | 26 h 51 m | Show |
CFB AAC Total of the Month. My selection is on the ‘under’ between Tulane and Navy at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. These two teams combined to score 57 points in last year’s matchup – a narrow one-point Green Wave victory. I’m anticipating a lower-scoring affair this time around. Tulane is fresh off a beatdown at the hands of Memphis last week. The Green Wave are certainly a better defensive team than they showed in that contest. Memphis went into that one highly-motivated after suffering its first loss of the season the week previous at Temple. Navy has been rolling along, scoring a whopping 114 points over the course of its current three-game winning streak. Keep in mind, those wins came against Air Force, Tulsa and South Florida. Just two weeks ago Tulane gave up only seven points in a blowout win over Connecticut, allowing the Huskies to gain just 134 yards through the air and less than 100 on the ground. This is obviously a much tougher matchup but my point is, the Green Wave are capable of stiffening up defensively. Remember, earlier this season they gave up just 24 points on the road against Auburn, holding the Tigers off the scoreboard for the entire first quarter and giving up just a single touchdown in the second half. Navy’s lone defeat this season came at the hands of aforementioned Memphis. After allowing a touchdown with just under 10 minutes left in the first quarter, the Middies didn’t give up another offensive touchdown until nearly six minutes into the third quarter. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-26-19 | Akron v. Northern Illinois UNDER 43.5 | 0-49 | Loss | -104 | 26 h 45 m | Show | |
My selection is on the ‘under’ between Akron and Northern Illinois at 3:30 pm et on Saturday. Akron’s offense couldn’t have looked much worse than it did in last week’s 21-0 loss at home against Buffalo (we won with the Bulls in that game). Rather than fade the Zips again here, we’ll turn our attention to the total and back the ‘under’ as they hit the road to face Northern Illinois. One area where I do expect some improvement from the Zips offensively is on the ground. You can run on the Huskies this season and that bodes well for Akron as it looks to effectively shorten this game and churn out long drives. That of course also serves our purposes well with a play on the ‘under’. Northern Illinois lost starting QB Ross Bowers to a concussion in last week’s loss to Miami-Ohio. Regardless who is under center, the Huskies have had a tough time getting anything going offensively this season. Save for a few breakdowns from opposing defenses resulting in big plays, Northern Illinois has been kept at bay for much of the campaign. RB Tre Harbison has seen his workload increase over the last few games and has had some success, but it’s worth noting that he has reached the end zone in just two of six contests this season. He’ll likely be the focal point of the Huskies offense on Saturday but that only strengthens our position on the ‘under’ as he should be able to help NIU churn out long, time-consuming drives against a Zips defense that has at the very least been able to limit opposing passing attacks, not allowing a quarterback to throw for over 200 yards since September 21st against Troy. Take the under (10*). |

10-25-19 | Jazz +3 v. Lakers | 86-95 | Loss | -105 | 25 h 47 m | Show | |
My selection is on Utah plus the points over Los Angeles at 10:35 pm et on Friday. I like the way this one sets up for the Jazz as they head to Los Angeles to challenge the overrated Lakers at Staples Center. As I've been harping on all week, preseason results do matter when it comes to the NBA. Note that the Jazz ranked 3rd in offensive rating and 1st in defensive rating during the exhibition slate while also finishing up 7th in terms of pace rating. The Lakers didn't show nearly as well, ranking in the bottom half of the league in both offensive and defensive ratings. The did do a good job of pushing the pace and we saw a similar story unfold in their season-opener against the Clippers, however entering last night's action (realizing it's very early) they rated in the bottom-third of the league in offensive rating. The Jazz are top five in both offensive and defensive rating through a game. Take Utah (10*). |
|||||||
10-25-19 | USC -11.5 v. Colorado | Top | 35-31 | Loss | -106 | 24 h 45 m | Show |
CFB Pac-12 Game of the Month. My selection is on USC minus the points over Colorado at 9 pm et on Friday. The USC Trojans are dealing with a number of key injuries on the defensive side of the football but that's certainly been factored into this line. I like the upside of the Trojans offense as they head to Boulder to face an awful Colorado defense. On the flip side, the Buffaloes offense has disappointed this season - the duo of QB Steven Montez and WR Laviska Shenault Jr. in particular. The Trojans 'next man up' philosophy on defense has served them well and I believe this is another matchup they can handle. Note that Colorado has scored just 13 points in its last two games. Even when the Buffaloes did put up 30 points in a losing effort against Arizona three weeks ago they still didn't manage to find the end zone until the final two minutes of the first half and failed to score a touchdown over the game's critical final 20 minutes. USC rode a big game from freshman RB Kenan Christon last week as he ran for 103 yards and two touchdowns on just eight carries. Take USC (10*). |
|||||||
10-25-19 | Raptors +3 v. Celtics | 106-112 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 29 m | Show | |
My selection is on Toronto plus the points over Boston at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The defending champion Raptors are going to get everyone's best shot this season but so far so good, as they survived their opening night test against the Zion-less Pelicans at home. As I've been preaching throughout the first week of the regular season, preseason results do matter in the NBA. Note that the Raptors wrapped up the exhibition slate ranking in the league's top 10 in offensive rating and top 4 in defensive rating. The Celtics on the other hand were a miserable 29th in terms of offensive rating and 19th in defensive rating over the course of the preseason. Despite being involved in an overtime fight with the Pelicans, the Raptors still showed well at both ends of the floor, ranking sixth in offensive rating and fifth in defensive rating in early returns this season. This is a big test for the champs but I look for them to handle it well. Take Toronto (10*). |
|||||||
10-24-19 | Redskins v. Vikings -15.5 | 9-19 | Loss | -110 | 35 h 51 m | Show | |
My selection is on Minnesota minus the points over Washington at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. It seems as if big pointspreads have become the norm in these primetime games and this Thursday’s contest is no different. Once again, I’m not sure the oddsmakers can set the line high enough as the Vikings should have little trouble brushing aside the lowly Redskins. Washington has such little upside at this point it’s almost laughable. WR Terry McLaurin has arguably been its lone bright spot and while he should get his in this matchup with a beatable Vikings pass defense, that’s no reason to jump off the Vikings in a game that has true blowout potential. We’ve already seen Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan orchestrate an offensive gameplan centred around the rushing attack, and more specifically RB Adrian Peterson. That gameplan just isn’t likely to work against a Vikings front that has been terrific against the run this season. With the ‘Skins likely to fall behind early, they may be forced to air it out but their comeback potential is limited given the fact that Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer knows former Minnesota QB Case Keenum’s tendencies and limitations. Minnesota will be without WR Adam Thielen for this game and while that’s a major hit, I still see this as a blow up spot for the Vikes offense. QB Kirk Cousins will be given clean pockets all night long against a Redskins defense that hasn’t been able to get to opposing quarterbacks at all this season. Meanwhile, RB Dalvin Cook is in line for another monster performance against a defense that can be run on and has gone nothing to eliminate short passing plays to opposing running backs. With the Vikes likely to dominate the time-of-possession battle, it’s only a matter of time before this one gets out of hand. Take Minnesota (10*). |

10-24-19 | Hawks v. Pistons UNDER 222.5 | 117-100 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Atlanta and Detroit at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. The Pistons were involved in a high-scoring affair to open the season last night as they rode a big fourth quarter to a win in Indiana. I look for things to settle down a bit on Thursday as they play their home opener against the Hawks. Note that during the preseason the Hawks ranked 32nd in offensive rating (yes, they finished behind both Melbourne and Guangzhou). Atlanta was one of the league's highest-scoring teams a year ago, but I'm not expecting it to come roaring out of the gates here. While Detroit did allow 110 points in last night's season-opener in Indiana, I liked what I saw from the Pistons defensively when the game was on the line in the fourth quarter. Note that we haven't seen a game between these two teams on this floor come all that close to tonight's posted total going back to the start of the 2017-18 season. Take the under (10*). |

10-23-19 | Pistons v. Pacers -7.5 | 119-110 | Loss | -104 | 10 h 54 m | Show | |
My selection is on Indiana minus the points over Detroit at 7:05 pm et on Wednesday. As I noted in last night's analysis of two opening night totals winners, the preseason does matter when it comes to the NBA, at least to some extent. Here, I look for the Pacers to run the Pistons out of the gym. Note that the Pacers ranked top 11 in both offensive and defensive rating and also checked in fourth in terms of pace rating during the exhibition slate. The Pistons on the other hand finished bottom 10 in offensive rating, 27th in defensive rating and a miserable tie for 29th in pace rating. Tough spot for Detroit to open the campaign here. Take Indiana (10*). |
