10-18-18 | Lakers v. Blazers -1 | Top | 119-128 | Win | 100 | 32 h 28 m | Show |
Cleveland with LeBron James was one of the worst bets in the NBA the last couple years. They were overbet by the betting public. They were shaded by the oddsmakers. Now LeBron is on the West Coast and we think the Lakers are a team to fade, at least early in the season. Adding him to the mix changes the dynamic of this team dramatically, and it’s going to take some time for the team to gel. Another thing working against the Lakers is that they are the biggest public team in the NBA. Bettors love to back them with their money. Now that LeBron has joined the team they are going to be even more of a public play than normal. Portland didn’t make any huge moves in the offseason. This team doesn’t have as high of a ceiling as the Lakers once this team gets a couple more players and gets on the same page. But right now they are clearly the much better team, and we expect them to win this one comfortably in the season opener. |

10-17-18 | Nuggets v. Clippers +1.5 | 107-98 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 1 m | Show | |
The Clippers enter the season as a really underrated bunch. This team is a playoff team if they stay healthy. This team is fully healthy to start the season and they will want to get off to a hot start in the season opener and home opener in a very winnable game. The Clippers got rid of all three of their stars last season and in the offseason. But they have a solid team and this team will play strong defense and give maximum effort night after night. And Doc Rivers coached one of the best seasons of his career last season with a depleted roster. You could tell he liked the challenge and that he likes the makeup of this team. This Denver team probably has a better roster on paper, but this team did not play well on the road last season and we expect more of the same this time around. We think the wrong team is favored here and we think the Clips will pull away in the fourth quarter. They have covered in four of the last five meetings at Staples Center. |
|||||||
10-17-18 | Heat v. Magic +2.5 | Top | 101-104 | Win | 100 | 28 h 48 m | Show |
The Magic always seem to play tough against the Heat, and we believe that will be the case tonight as well. The Magic have won and covered in five of the last seven meetings. Miami comes into this game banged up and they have a long injury list with many players questionable. If this was later in the season we might shy away from taking the Magic here. But this is a season opener and home opener and a game against an in-state rival who they generally play well against. The Magic started off the season very strong last season and then they tailed off. But we expect maximum effort here in the season opener and the public will be all over the Heat in this one so this is a solid public fade. |
|||||||
10-16-18 | 76ers v. Celtics -5 | Top | 87-105 | Win | 100 | 7 h 48 m | Show |
We think that both teams want this bad and that this game, on opening night, will be a defensive battle and we think this total is about 3-4 points too high as we had this number closer to 207 so we think there is value here in the number. This one should have a playoff atmosphere and these are two of the best three teams in the east this season. We think this game will be a close, hard-fought contest throughout but we think that Boston will pull ahead in the fourth and make a statement in this game. We will tread lightly here for opening night but we do see some great value here and expect to start off the season on a positive note. |

10-14-18 | Chiefs v. Patriots -3 | 40-43 | Push | 0 | 127 h 2 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #276 New England Patriots over Kansas City Chiefs (8:20p.m., Sunday, October 14 NBC) Just a strong gut feeling that the Chiefs will come back to earth in this game. That has been the history under Andy Reid after another fast start to the season. If New England has any hope of being the No. 1 seed this year in the AFC they must win this game. Both teams have impressive ATS runs but New England has revenge from last year against Kansas City and they are tough to beat at home (35-14 ATS run). I just feel that when good teams met, generally the team that needs it more gets it. Do not like to lay this many points against Kansas City but feel confident that New England will win this game straight-up and should be able to cover the spread as well. |
|||||||
10-14-18 | Rams v. Broncos +7 | 23-20 | Win | 100 | 123 h 47 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #270 Denver Broncos over Los Angeles Rams (4:05p.m., Sunday, October 14 FOX) The Broncos are just a different team at home especially early in the season. LA struggled to put away Seattle last week and now face a better defense in Denver at high elevation. The Broncos got embarrassed last week in New York and expect pride to set it and they play much better in Week 6. This is an important game for Coach Joseph to save the 2018 season and likely his job going forward. The underdog is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings between the Rams and Broncos. Denver lead another high-powered offense by double digits in their last home game and expect them to take this game down to the wire as well. Back-to-Back road games will catch-up with the Rams somewhat in this game. |
|||||||
10-14-18 | Seahawks v. Raiders +3 | 27-3 | Loss | -115 | 120 h 41 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #266 Oakland Raiders over Seattle Seahawks (1p.m., Sunday, October 14 FOX) The Raiders once again give away a home game for this trip to London. That being said, the Seahawks are not good enough to be laying points against anyone in the league for a neutral site game. Both teams have issues but I feel Oakland has more weapons on offense and will be able to put up some points and yards against a Seahawk defense that is a shell of its former self. Seattle is 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games played during Week 6 of the regular season. Oakland is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games against Seattle. |
|||||||
10-13-18 | Wisconsin +9.5 v. Michigan | 13-38 | Loss | -106 | 57 h 40 m | Show | |
7 Unit Play. #169 Take Wisconsin Badgers over Michigan Wolverines (7:30p.m., Saturday, October 13 ABC) TOP COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAY OF THE WEEK. Wisconsin just does not get blown out much in there games. Getting this many points against a team still searching for a marquee win is too good to pass up. Michigan has a brutal schedule remaining with games against Michigan State, Penn State, and Ohio State still on deck. Playing the west division allows Wisconsin to avoid upsets when there are not at their best. Wisconsin has yet to play a complete game this season, but I expect them to put forth a big effort Saturday night. The number keeps rising since their secondary is banged up, but I do not believe Michigan will be able to take advantage of this. Wisconsin is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 road games. Michigan is 18-37 ATS in their last 55 games following an ATS win in their previous game. Wisconsin is 9-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 11 games against Michigan. |

10-13-18 | Ottawa +3.5 v. Edmonton | Top | 16-34 | Loss | -107 | 54 h 2 m | Show |
8-Unit Play. #665. Take Ottawa +3.5 vs Edmonton (Saturday, October 13 @ 5:00p.m.) This is my CFL Game of the Year. 1-0 this season with 8-Unit selections. It's time to stick a fork in the Edmonton Eskimos. What started out as a promising campaign, is going to end in disappointment and a missed playoffs. Look, the Eskimos can't score points on offense right now. Their last three point totals are 12, 3 and 15 to these very Ottawa RedBlacks. However, the difference between that game on Sept 22 and this coming game, is the Eskimos were on the up and had momentum. Now, they look defeated and the oddsmakers are telling you that on a neutral field, Edmonton is barely the favorite. The RedBlacks may have already clinched a playoff spot, but Hamilton is hot on their tails for the top spot. The RedBlacks got off to a sluggish start against Winnipeg last time out (bad spot), but rallied late to force OT. Trevor Harris is continuing to play well, tossing three touchdowns and 349 yards against a good Winnipeg defense. Not to mention, the running game got going with William Powell rushing for 95 yards on 14 carries. Look, I've watched every snap of Edmonton's loss to Saskatchewan and there is just no spark within the team. It's going to be a sour ending for Eskimos fans, but we will cash this ticket here on the RedBlacks. The RedBlacks are 24-8 ATS in their last 32 road games, while the Eskimos are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Saturday games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 against Ottawa. |

10-13-18 | New Mexico v. Colorado State +1 | 18-20 | Win | 100 | 99 h 37 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #150 Colorado State Rams over New Mexico Lobos (4p.m., Saturday, October 13 ATTSN) The Rams have been one of the most disappointing teams in the conference this season but they have played a difficult schedule and should be able to get back on track in MWC play. They have talent and have owned this series winning 8 in a row against the Lobos. New Mexico dominated UNLV last week but the Rebels were without their starting quarterback. New Mexico is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall. The home team is 7-2 ATS (1 push) in the last 10 matchups between New Mexico and Colorado State. |
|||||||
10-13-18 | Georgia v. LSU +7.5 | Top | 16-36 | Win | 100 | 98 h 10 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #198 LSU Tigers over Georgia Bulldogs (3:30p.m., Saturday, October 13 CBS) SEC GAME OF THE YEAR Georgia has yet to be tested this season but their schedule ramps up from here on out. Playing at LSU is never an easy task and except them to be in for a 60-minute game today in Baton Rouge. LSU has covered the spread in 8 of their last 10 games in October. The Tigers have the speed to contain Georgia and I just do not see a blowout in this game. We will gladly grab the points and not worry about who pulls this game out by a field goal. |
|||||||
10-13-18 | Washington v. Oregon +3.5 | 27-30 | Win | 100 | 98 h 9 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #160 Oregon Ducks over Washington Huskies (3:30p.m., Saturday, October 13 ABC) Oregon is legit and has a quarterback that can attack this Washington defense. The Ducks should be undefeated except for a collapse against Stanford in their last home game. Now they are coming off a bye whereas Washington did not look impressive at all against a terrible UCLA team. Oregon has been pounded in the last two meetings, but they are still 12-2 straight-up and against the spread in the last 14 meetings. Washington has been on the road a lot this year and that will catch up to them in this game. Washington is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games. Oregon is 6-1 ATS (1 push) against Washington in the last 8 meetings in Eugene. |
|||||||
10-13-18 | Pittsburgh v. Notre Dame -20.5 | 14-19 | Loss | -110 | 97 h 17 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #154 Notre Dame Fighting Irish over Pittsburgh Panthers (2:30p.m., Saturday, October 13 NBC) I have said the last two weeks that you must continue to ride Notre Dame until they fail to cover a spread. We have used them the last two weeks and won easily and expect more of the same on Saturday against an inferior team. Pittsburgh is coming off an overtime win against Syracuse but the talent level they face is much stronger in this game. Since QB Brook has been named the starting quarterback the Irish appear to be unstoppable (3-0 ATS). Pittsburgh is 6-19 ATS (1 push) in their last 26 nonconference games. Notre Dame is 40-18 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 60 games played during October. |
|||||||
10-13-18 | Florida -7 v. Vanderbilt | 37-27 | Win | 100 | 95 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #191 Florida Gators over Vanderbilt Commodores (12p.m., Saturday, October 13 ESPN) The Gators have been on a roll since losing to Kentucky winning 4 straight games including beating LSU and Mississippi State in the process. Vanderbilt has been pounded in their last 2 SEC games and this will be a double digit loss as well. Florida has not lost at Vanderbilt since 1988 (13 straight wins) and have covered the spread in 70% of their last 10 games in Nashville. The Commodores have trouble defending the pass and expect Coach Mullen to pick them apart. Vanderbilt is 1-8 ATS (1 push) in their last 10 SEC games. |
|||||||
10-07-18 | Jaguars +3.5 v. Chiefs | 14-30 | Loss | -115 | 119 h 56 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #453 Jacksonville Jaguars over Kansas City Chiefs (1p.m., Sunday, October 7 CBS) This low number wants to entice bettors to play the Chiefs. We will not bite and gladly take the points with the best defensive team in the league. Kansas City started off 4-0 last season before struggling to make the playoffs and losing in the wild card round. Kansas City has a short week and Jacksonville is the type of team that can slow down QB Mahomes. Jacksonville is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games against teams with a winning record. Kansas City is 1-4 ATS when playing on Sunday following an appearance on Monday Night Football. |
|||||||
10-07-18 | Broncos v. Jets | 16-34 | Win | 100 | 119 h 55 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #460 New York Jets over Denver Broncos (1p.m., Sunday, October 7 CBS) The Jets have revenge on their minds as they lost to the Broncos in 2017. That victory by Denver ended an 8-game losing streak but Denver is a much different team on the road. Coach Joseph has only won 1 road game in his year plus as coach of the Broncos. The Jets have covered the spread in 8 of the last 10 home games. A 1-3 team is favored against a 2-2 team, that tells me a great deal about being on the right side of this game. Denver suffered a devastating loss last Monday against Kansas City, a game which they led by 10 points in the fourth quarter. There will be a carryover in this game, as they Jets will win it by 7-10 points. Denver is 1-10 ATS in their last 11 road games. This is only the Jets second home game this season and they will put forth a good effort on Sunday afternoon in East Rutherford. |
|||||||
10-07-18 | Packers v. Lions +1.5 | 23-31 | Win | 100 | 119 h 55 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #464 Detroit Lions over Green Bay Packers (1p.m., Sunday, October 7 FOX) The Packers lost to the Redskins in their last road game and they have major issues at the wide receiver position. The underdog has covered all 4 of Detroit’s games this season and I truly believe they have the more talented roster in this game. QB Rodgers has been sacked 12 times this season and they are not facing a rookie quarterback in this game. Detroit pounded in the Patriots in their last home game and I expect them to play from in front in this game. The Lions have had some decent success against the Packers beating them both times last year. Detroit is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. Green Bay is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 divisional games. |
|||||||
10-07-18 | Wyoming v. Hawaii -3 | Top | 13-17 | Win | 100 | 106 h 56 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #414 Hawaii Rainbow Warriors over Wyoming Cowboys (11:59p.m., Saturday, October 6) Wyoming has a major problem on offense and if Hawaii does not beat themselves with turnovers, they will win this game by double digits. Hawaii took Wyoming into overtime last year with QB Allen playing for the Pokes. He will not be on the island this year and the Cowboys are averaging just 18 points and 300 total yards. Hawaii is coming off a 5OT win on the road last Saturday and they now are on pace to make a bowl game this season. When Wyoming loses, it tends to be big as their three losses this season have come by 22, 27, & 20 points. Wyoming put a lot into their game last week against Boise State in Laramie and they performed poorly. The oddsmakers have not caught onto how bad Wyoming is this season, as they have not covered a spread in their last 4 lined games. Â |
|||||||
10-06-18 | Notre Dame -5 v. Virginia Tech | 45-23 | Win | 100 | 102 h 18 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #349 Notre Dame Fighting Irish over Virginia Tech Hokies (8p.m., Saturday, October 6 ABC) Until Notre Dame loses a game we will continue to ride them on these short numbers. Virginia Tech is without their starting quarterback and already lost to Old Dominion this season. They played better last week against Duke but the Blue Devils are not a powerhouse whatsoever. Virginia Tech has a weak defense this year and Notre Dame will get their offense rolling at some point in this game and I just do not believe the Hokies will be able to keep pace. Notre Dame is 39-18 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 59 games played in October. |
|||||||
10-06-18 | San Diego State v. Boise State -14.5 | 19-13 | Loss | -106 | 97 h 28 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #354 Boise State Broncos over San Diego State Aztecs (3:30p.m., Saturday, October 6 ESPN U) Boise State is far and away the best team in the MWC and we will continue to ride them. We hit out top play with them last week against Wyoming and now they play a very similar team in San Diego State. The Aztecs need to keep this game low scoring and that will be impossible to do facing QB Rypien. Boise State had a 506-214 yardage advantage last week against Wyoming and they should have won by more than 20 points. San Diego State was favored last year against Boise State and lost 31-14. The same holds true as last week, if Boise State does not beat themselves they will win this game by 20 points. San Diego State is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record. Boise State has covered the spread in 4 of their last 5 games. |
|||||||
10-06-18 | Maryland v. Michigan -17.5 | 21-42 | Win | 100 | 95 h 10 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #338 Michigan Wolverines over Maryland Terrapins (12p.m., Saturday, October 6 ABC) Maryland is improved but Michigan owes this series of late under Coach Harbaugh. Michigan is 3-0 ATS in their last three games against Maryland with a combined score of those games being 122-13. Michigan now has balance on offense with a quarterback that can move the football through the air. Maryland will not be able to run the football for 315 yards like they did against Minnesota. Michigan came out flat against Northwestern last week but turned it on in the second half and expect them to carry that into this early start on Saturday. Maryland is 6-20 ATS in their last 26 games following a victory in their previous game. Michigan is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games played at Michigan Stadium. |
|||||||
10-05-18 | Utah State v. BYU -2.5 | 45-20 | Loss | -107 | 79 h 60 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #312 BYU Cougars over Utah State Aggies (9p.m., Friday, October 5 ESPN 2) BYU has a much better team this year than last year and should be able to beat Utah State at home on Friday night. BYU turned over the football 7 times in that game last year and still only lost by 16 points (led by 14 points in the second quarter). BYU has played a brutal schedule thus far and they always have a home field advantage in Provo. This is a game BYU needs in order to save their season and expect them to get it. Utah State is 2-14 ATS in their last 16 games against teams with a winning record. BYU has covered the spread 4 straight games against MWC teams. 71% of the early money is coming in on BYU and we expect them to bounce back as well. |
|||||||
10-05-18 | Winnipeg +1.5 v. Ottawa | 40-32 | Win | 100 | 5 h 32 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #651. Take Winnipeg +1.5 vs Ottawa (Friday, October 3 @ 7:30p.m.) Look, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are in win-now mode. They've won and covered in two straight games, and have given up just 17 points combined. The defense is a big reason they Bombers have climbed into a postseason position and with just four games left every game matters for them moving forward. Matt Nichols looked sharped for the Bombers, tossing 16/20 and 170 yards last week, but it was the ground attack who did the bulk of the damage. Andrew Harris rushed for 73 yards and a score. Defensively, the Bombers turned Edmonton over 7 times, including three picks. Against Ottawa, the defense will need to continue to play at a high level and should get the opportunity to be a difference maker against a RedBlack team that has been fighting the injury bug. Heading into this matchup, and despite coming off a bye week, QB Trevor Harris is still listed as questionable, so if he is unable to play mistake-free football, the Bombers certainly have a chance in this spot. Ottawa has covered just 4 times in their last 12 games against Winnipeg, so we look for Winnipeg to stay aggressive and get their win streak to three games. |
|||||||
10-01-18 | Chiefs v. Broncos +5.5 | 27-23 | Win | 100 | 146 h 25 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #278 Denver Broncos over Kansas City Chiefs (8:15p.m., Monday, October 1 ESPN) Kansas City has won 4 straight in this series but this will be the toughest defense they have faced all season long. QB Mahomes has played outstanding thus far in the season but his defense has been giving up a ton of points this year as well (30.7 per game). The underdog has covered the spread in 6 of the last 8 match-ups. Denver has some weapons on offense and should be able to keep this game close with a good chance to pull the upset in the fourth quarter. Â |
|||||||
09-30-18 | Browns v. Raiders -1.5 | Top | 42-45 | Win | 100 | 118 h 17 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #270 Oakland Raiders over Cleveland Browns (4:05p.m., Sunday, September 20 CBS) The Raiders have had chances in all three of their games but sit at 0-3. This is a very important game for the Raiders and a must win if they have any chance of making the playoffs this season. QB Baker Mayfield will get the start after a nice performance at home against the Jets. Playing in the Black Hole is a much harder task. Cleveland is 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games against teams with a losing record. The favorite is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings between Cleveland and Oakland. |
|||||||
09-30-18 | Dolphins v. Patriots -6.5 | 7-38 | Win | 100 | 115 h 14 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #252 New England Patriots over Miami Dolphins (1p.m., Sunday, September 30 CBS) This is a popular newsletter play early in the week and I am included in expecting the Patriots to play much better at home this week. The Dolphins are 3-0 and a win in Foxborough might give them the division title but I just cannot trust them to win this game. New England has won 9 straight games against Miami in Foxborough (7-2 ATS) by an 18 point margin of victory. The favorite is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Miami is 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games played on fieldturf. |
|||||||
09-30-18 | Texans +2 v. Colts | 37-34 | Win | 100 | 115 h 13 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #253 Houston Texans over Indianapolis Colts (1p.m., Sunday, September 30 CBS) The Texans are the most disappointing team in the league, but they are going to win games this year and the AFC South is not out of reach at the moment. The Colts fought hard against the Eagles last week but they offense was horrible with only 209 total yards. That will not get the job done today against the Texans and if they can muster a pass rush they will win this game by double digits. Houston is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games played in Week 4. The road team is 5-1 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 8 meetings. |
|||||||
09-30-18 | Bucs v. Bears -3 | 10-48 | Win | 100 | 115 h 12 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #264 Chicago Bears over Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1p.m., Sunday, September 30 FOX) Tampa Bay came back down to earth last Monday getting behind big against Pittsburgh with 4 turnovers. Now they are on the road with a short week against a much better defense. Tampa Bay is just 2-7 ATS with a bye week on deck. The Bears should be 3-0 if not for poor coaching in their home opener. Tampa Bay has secondary injuries and that should allow QB Trubisky to have success in the passing game. Chicago came out slow against Arizona last week and I just feel they are due to a complete game in all facets of the game (offense, defense, special teams). Tampa Bay is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games played during Week 4. |
|||||||
09-29-18 | Boise State -17 v. Wyoming | Top | 34-14 | Win | 100 | 97 h 15 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #203 Boise State Broncos over Wyoming Cowboys (7p.m., Saturday, September 30 CBSSN) The Cowboys and their fans will be up for this game but the fact remains they just do not have the offensive firepower to keep pace in this game. Wyoming is 2-2 this season but their wins have come against a terrible New Mexico State team and an FCS team in Wofford by just three points. If Boise State does not turn over the football they will win this game by 21+ points. Wyoming is 117th in the country in points per game and they have gotten pounded by Washington State and Missouri. I believe Boise State is better than both of those teams. Boise State has won 11 of the last 12 meetings. The Broncos are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games. The road team is 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings. |
|||||||
09-29-18 | Florida v. Mississippi State -7.5 | 13-6 | Loss | -105 | 96 h 15 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #194 Mississippi State Bulldogs over Florida Gators (6p.m., Saturday, September 29 ESPN) One of the more surprising results last week was Mississippi State getting destroyed by Kentucky. Florida one by default last week against Tennessee who turned the football over six times. The only had 186 yards passing in that game and just 14 first downs. But this is a game the Bulldogs want in the worst way to show Coach Mullen made the wrong decision leaving Starkville for Gainesville. Mississippi State is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 home games. Florida is 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games following an ATS win in their previous game. Florida has not covered the spread against Mississippi State in the last 4 match-ups. |
|||||||
09-29-18 | Pittsburgh v. Central Florida -13.5 | 14-45 | Win | 100 | 94 h 47 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #140 UCF Golden Knights over Pittsburgh Panthers (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 29 ESPN U) UCF just wins and expect them to win this game at home by double digits. The Panthers have been terrible in the second halves this year and expect that to continue in this game. The Golden Knights can still score points and the Panthers will not be able to keep pace in this game. UCF is fifth in total offense at over 587 yards per game. Pittsburgh is 7-19 ATS in their last 27 nonconference games. UCF is 8-3 ATS (1 push) in their last 12 games following an ATS win in their previous game. |
|||||||
09-29-18 | Bowling Green v. Georgia Tech -28.5 | 17-63 | Win | 100 | 90 h 17 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #124 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets over Bowling Green Falcons (12p.m., Saturday, September 29 ACCN) The Falcons really struggle to stop the run and that is pretty much all Georgia Tech does. Bowling Green is 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog and sooner or later Georgia Tech will cover a spread in 2018. Bowling Green is allowing 334 yards per game rushing and 6.44 yards per rushing attempt. The Falcons are 8-21 ATS in their last 29 games. The line has already moved 4+ points towards the Yellow Jackets and it is still not enough. It will be a 30-point home victory in Atlanta, GA. |
|||||||
09-28-18 | Memphis v. Tulane +14 | 24-40 | Win | 100 | 74 h 19 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #106 Tulane Green Wave over Memphis Tigers (8p.m., Friday, September 28 ESPN 2) The Green Wave is better than what their record is, and I just do not see a blowout in this game. Memphis has allowed points and they like to win games by outscoring their opponent and that becomes a tougher task once conference play opens up. Tulane runs the spread option and a running team has already beaten Memphis this season (Navy). Tulane is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 home games. Memphis is 2-10 ATS (1 push) in their last 13 games after allowing more than 280 yards passing in their previous game. |

4 Unit Play. Take #101 Minnesota Vikings over Los Angeles Rams (8:20p.m., Thursday, September 27 FOX) The Vikings suffered the worst loss in years last week against Buffalo. They were obviously looking ahead to this game and I expect a much better effort in this game. Talent wise I put Minnesota as an equal to Los Angeles and they beat them by 17 points last year. The Rams lost a bunch of home games last year including in the playoffs and we will gladly take the points in this game. The Rams are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Thursday games. The Vikings are 43-21 in their last 64 games. |

09-24-18 | Steelers v. Bucs +1.5 | 30-27 | Loss | -105 | 149 h 44 m | Show | |
10 Unit Play. Take #490 Tampa Bay Buccaneers over Pittsburgh Steelers (8:15p.m., Monday, September 24 ESPN) We will ride the Fitzmagic train in this game. Many are expecting Pittsburgh to break out of this funk but you just cannot trust their defense whatsoever. Big Ben is having to throw the football every play since they are getting down early and Pittsburgh is just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games as a favorite of less than 7 points. QB Fitzpatrick has put up monster passing numbers in the first two games and this will be the weakness defense he has faced year to date. Pittsburgh is 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games overall. Tampa Bay is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS victory in their previous game. |

4 Unit Play. Take #464 Carolina Panthers over Cincinnati Bengals (1p.m., Sunday, September 23 CBS) Just do not believe that the Bengals can handle prosperity. Everything went right for the Bengals last Thursday night getting a three-touchdown lead, but they still had to hang on for the victory against Baltimore. Carolina is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games preceding their bye week. Carolina is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games. Carolina is 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games against AFC teams. |

09-23-18 | Giants v. Texans -6 | 27-22 | Loss | -107 | 118 h 31 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #472 Houston Texas over New York Giants (1p.m., Sunday, September 23 FOX) The Giants have major offensive line issues and this is not the defense that will allow them to get back on track. Houston needs a victory in the worst way after falling just short in their first two games on the road. QB Eli Manning cannot be successful without a strong offensive line and Houston is 8-1 ATS in their last 9 home games as a favorite against a nondivisional team. New York is 3-16 ATS in their last 19 games. Houston is better on both sides of the football and they cannot afford to look past this Giants team. New York is playing their second straight road game in Texas and they will lose this game by double digits. |

09-23-18 | Bills +17.5 v. Vikings | 27-6 | Win | 100 | 117 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #477 Buffalo Bills over Minnesota Vikings (1p.m., Sunday, September 23 CBS) The Vikings are in disarray of missing three field goals last week against Green Bay. It will be hard for them to get up for this game against the worst teams in the league. With the Rams on deck for the Vikings expect them to just go through the motions in this game and win it by around 10-13 points. Buffalo made the right decision to start QB Josh Allen and they are 7-1 ATS (1 push) in their last 9 games against NFC teams. Not much good can be said about Buffalo but they made the playoffs last season and pride will set in and I believe they will put forth a good effort in this game. |
|||||||
09-22-18 | Stanford v. Oregon +3 | Top | 38-31 | Loss | -115 | 101 h 37 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #356 Oregon Ducks over Stanford Cardinal (8p.m., Saturday, September 22 ABC) This is a game that can put Oregon on the national radar once again. A win will likely prevent Stanford for reaching the PAC-12 Championship Game and set up a battle between Washington and Oregon on October 13. The Ducks result last week was misleading as they were clearly looking ahead to this game and have revenge on their minds after getting pounded last year in Palo Alto. Getting rid of Willie Taggert can only be beneficial evident by this lack of success at Florida State. Stanford is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games played in September. Oregon has the weapons to attack this Stanford defense and expect them to win straight-up. The Line has swing too much and the value now clearly lies with Oregon. |

09-22-18 | Cubs -1.5 v. White Sox | 8-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 2 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #929 Chicago (NL) (-1.5, -130) over Chicago (AL) (7:10 p.m. Saturday, September 22) Not that the Cubs need any extra motivation to beat their cross town rivals that have no chance of making the playoffs, but the Brewers are breathing down their neck for the National League Central title. Having Jon Lester toe the rubber usually leads to good results for the Cubs and I think that is what will happen tonight. Lester has gone 10-2 with a 2.82 ERA in 14 starts on the road this season, and in his last three starts away from Wrigley Field he has allowed just one run over 17.2 innings pitched. Lester beat the White Sox on May 12th 8-4 when he yielded one run on four hits through 5.2 innings. Lucas Giolito is part of the plans for the White Sox future but he hasn't been to effective this season. Giolito has struggled in 14 starts at home this year going 3-6 with a 7.91 ERA across 14 starts. The White Sox have lost the last four games Giolito has started with him allowing 12 earned runs over 20.2 innings and I think the Cubs offense will be able to produce in this contest. I think the Cubs bounce back from yesterday's defeat and inch closer to the playoffs. Best of Luck - Doc's S |

09-22-18 | Mississippi State -9.5 v. Kentucky | 7-28 | Loss | -115 | 100 h 42 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #359 Mississippi State Bulldogs over Kentucky Wildcats (7p.m., Saturday, September 22 ESPN2) The Bulldogs are for real in 2018 and they may be the second-best team in the SEC West. The SEC East appears to be Georgia and a bunch of pretenders and thus we will gladly lay the points on the road with the better overall team. QB Fitzgerald had 6 touchdowns last week and he has lighten up the scoreboard since coming off an opening game suspension. The Bulldogs are 8-1 straight-up (6-2 ATS) in their last 9 meetings with the Wildcats. Kentucky has not done well in Lexington going 6-20 ATS in their last 26 games at Commonwealth Stadium. Mississippi State is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games against teams with a winning record. |

09-22-18 | TCU v. Texas +3.5 | 16-31 | Win | 100 | 97 h 5 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #380 Texas Longhorns over TCU Horned Frogs (4:30p.m., Saturday, September 22 FOX) TCU got shell shocked in the third quarter last week in a defacto home game against Ohio State. Texas is coming off an impressive win against USC and it is imperative that they follow that up with a victory this week to keep the momentum going. TCU has not played in Fort Worth since September 1st and that will catch up with them in this game. Texas has played a home heavy schedule as this is their fourth game of the season and their third game Texas Memorial Stadium. Coach Herman cannot afford to look past any opponent as he did not have a good season last year and already has a lost to Maryland this season. TCU is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS win in their previous game. |

09-22-18 | Edmonton -2.5 v. Ottawa | 15-28 | Loss | -115 | 46 h 9 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #653. Edmonton -3 vs Ottawa (Saturday @ 4:00pm. Est). In a league with just nine teams, it's easy to zig when you should zag and zag when you should zig. The Ottawa Redblacks are one of those teams that are hard to get a good read on, but in this spot, against this opponent, we feel the time is right to go against them. Look, Ottawa won last week at Saskatchewan. The offense put up 30 and the defense held the Riders into just 25 points. However, the Riders offense is not as prolific as the Edmonton offense is, so we expect Ottawa to be a step slow in their first game back after a two-game west coast road trip. Not to mention, Ottawa is on a bye next week, so with a comfortable lead in the division, it's not all that uncommon for teams to go through the motions in a spot similar to this. The Edmonton Eskimos come to town after putting up 48 on the vaunted Calgary defense. Mike Reilly connected on 30/44 passing for three touchdowns and also added 43 yards on the ground. A similar result will have the Eskimos leaving the Nations Capital with a win and will move them one step closer to Calgary who has a bye. The Eskimos are 7-0 vs a team with a winning record and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 Road games while the RedBlacks are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games. |

09-22-18 | Clemson -16.5 v. Georgia Tech | 49-21 | Win | 100 | 96 h 10 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #337 Clemson Tigers over Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 22 ABC) The Tigers have the defensive line that will be able to stop the rushing attack of the Yellow Jackets. Clemson has won 5 of the last 6 meetings (4-2 ATS) by an average margin of victory of 18 points per game. Clemson is allowing just 89 yards rushing each game (about 2.1 yards per carry). Georgia Tech has scored just 17 combined points in their last 2 games against Clemson. Georgia Tech is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Yellow Jackets are in a serious downturn and this may be the year they make a coaching change, as Paul Johnson does not inspire an exciting brand of football. |

09-22-18 | Texas A&M v. Alabama -26.5 | 23-45 | Loss | -110 | 96 h 3 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #406 Alabama Crimson Tide over Texas A & M Aggies (3:30 p.m., Saturday, September 22 CBS) I guess you have to keep riding Alabama until they do not cover a spread. The Tide has looked dominating on all levels of play and we will lay the wood in this game against a rebuilding Texas A&M squad. The Aggies had their Super Bowl two weeks ago against Clemson, but that game was a home and I just do not believe they can put forth that big of an effort on the road. Alabama has won 20 straight home games by an average of 32 points per game. A&M is 4-9 ATS (1 push) in their last 14 SEC games. Alabama has covered the spread in 4 of their last 5 home games. |

09-22-18 | Louisville v. Virginia -4.5 | 3-27 | Win | 100 | 93 h 9 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #348 Virginia Cavaliers over Louisville Cardinals (12:30p.m., Saturday, September 22 ACCN) The Cardinals appear to be in a downward trend and this year they have no Lamar Jackson to bail them out. They were outgained last week against Western Kentucky and now face a better defense in Virginia this Saturday. Louisville is 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games. Virginia has a chance to make a bowl game this year but must win this game in order to accomplish that. Virginia is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games against teams with a winning record. Louisville is 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games played during September. |

09-21-18 | Washington State v. USC -3.5 | 36-39 | Loss | -105 | 79 h 16 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #310 USC Trojans over Washington State Cougars (10:30p.m., Friday, September 21 ESPN) USC appears to be in freefall at the moment but playing at home against Washington State should get them back on track. The Cougars beat the Trojans last year for the first time since 2002 and I do not see them winning two straight against a much more talented team. USC has won 12 straight conference games at the Coliseum. Washington State is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games. USC is 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games following a loss in their previous game. |

09-18-18 | Mets v. Phillies -1.5 | 2-5 | Win | 122 | 8 h 55 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #902 Philadelphia (-1.5 RL) over NY Mets (7:05 p.m. Tuesday, September 18) The Phillies have no time to waste and no games to lose if they want to stay in the wild card hunt as they sit 6 games out. Philadelphia hasn't had much luck against the Mets this season as they are 6-11 against them. Luckily for the Phillies, they have their Cy Young hopeful Aaron Nola on the mound who has had plenty of success against New York this season. Nola has faced the Mets 5 times this year and has gone 4-0 with a 1.97 ERA holding them to a .183 batting average. Steven Matz will be on the mound for New York and even though he has pitched better recently he hasn't been great against the Phillies. Matz is 0-1 with a 5.25 ERA in three starts against Philadelphia this year with the Phillies batting .271 off him. I think the Phillies will stack their lineup with righties and pick up the win.

09-16-18 | Giants +3 v. Cowboys | Top | 13-20 | Loss | -108 | 122 h 53 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #287 New York Giants over Dallas Cowboys (8:20p.m., Sunday, September 16 NBC) Both teams are coming off losses in Week 1 but I just see more hope with the Giants compared to the Cowboys. Dallas used to have a strong offensive line but that is not the case anymore. They still have RB Elliott but defenses can stack the line against them since they do not have much deep threat wide receivers. Dallas is just 7-18 ATS in their last 25 home games against a divisional team. New York will win this game straight-up because they have many more weapons on offense compared to Dallas. New York has covered the spread in 5 of the last 7 meetings with Dallas. |

09-16-18 | Patriots -1 v. Jaguars | 20-31 | Loss | -120 | 118 h 57 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #283 New England Patriots over Jacksonville Jaguars (4:25p.m., Sunday, September 16 CBS) This will be a litmus test for the Jaguars to show that they are one of the top teams in the AFC. The spread is low, and it is not often you find New England as only a slight favorite. New England has covered the spread in 10 of their last 11 games. With RB Fournette not 100% we will gladly take the team with the better quarterback in this game. New England is 14-3 ATS in their last 17 road games. Jacksonville is 1-10 ATS in their last 11 Week 2 games. |

09-16-18 | Chiefs v. Steelers -5 | 42-37 | Loss | -105 | 114 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #272 Pittsburgh Steelers over Kansas City Chiefs (1p.m., Sunday, September 16 CBS) Pittsburgh gets up for Kansas City and they have beaten them in 6 out of the last 7 meetings. Pittsburgh did not play well last week against Cleveland but they have covered the spread in 6 of their last 8 home openers. Big Ben needs to bounce back after a terrible performance last week and expect him to do that in a big way. Pittsburgh’s rushing attack did not miss a beat without Le’Veon Bell and expect more of the same on Saturday. I am still not solid on QB Pat Mahomes despite his great performance last week in Los Angeles. This is the second straight road game for the Chiefs and that will catchup with them as Pittsburg wins this game by 10-13 points. |

09-15-18 | Arizona State v. San Diego State +5 | 21-28 | Win | 100 | 100 h 57 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #210 San Diego State Aztecs over Arizona State Sun Devils (10:30p.m., Saturday, September 15 CBSSN) Everyone is drinking the Herm Edwards Kool-Aid after beating Michigan State last week and I feel this number is inflated. SDSU won in Tempe last year by double digits and I feel they have a good chance to win this game straight-up. Arizona State has Washington on deck and playing at his half empty stadium is always a touch task to get the adrenalin flowing. SDSU is not as strong as they have been in the past couple of years but they still play sound football and like to control the game with a strong running attack and solid defense and that should be able to chip away at the clock and keep them in this game for 60 minutes. ASU is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against MWC teams. SDSU is 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games following an ATS loss in their previous game. |

09-15-18 | Washington v. Utah +7 | 21-7 | Loss | -115 | 100 h 36 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #206 Utah Utes over Washington Huskies (10p.m., Saturday, September 15 ESPN) I believe Utah is the team to beat in the PAC-12 South and getting points with them at home is a prime opportunity for a big play. Washington will be traveling for the second time in three weeks to open the season and this will be another hostile environment. Utah is 6-3 ATS as a home underdog and had Washington beat last year in Seattle before a late rally by the Huskies allowed them to emerge victorious. Washington is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games. Utah is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing during the month of September. |

09-15-18 | Ohio State v. TCU +13.5 | 40-28 | Win | 100 | 98 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #204 TCU Horned Frogs over Ohio State Buckeyes (8p.m., Saturday, September 15 ABC) This is the game that Ohio State will miss having Urban Meyer on the sidelines. This is a defacto home game for TCU since this game is be playing in Arlington and TCU is located in Fort Worth. TCU got off to a slow start against SMU last week but turned it on in the second half and they clearly had an eye on this game. The Frogs will have a coaching advantage in this game and I just do not see them losing by double digits. Ohio State has yet to be tested and I feel this game will go down to the wire. We will grab the points in this contest. |

09-15-18 | Mets v. Red Sox -1.5 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 5 h 45 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #976 Boston (-1.5, -130) over NY Mets (4:05 p.m. Saturday, September 15) The Mets put it on the Red Sox last night behind 7 magical innings from Noah Syndergaard and bopping four home runs in an 8-0 thumping. I think there will be dramatically different results in today's game though. Rick Porcello has held opponents to a .236 batting average at Fenway this year and the Red Sox have won his last three starts. Porcello hasn't faced the Mets since 2013 and he is a very different pitcher since then. Corey Oswalt will be on the bump for New York and he has been dreadful when he pitches on the road as he is 1-1 with an 8.25 ERA over 7 appearances (4 starts). The Mets snapped the Red Sox four game winning streak last night and I like Boston to return the favor and snap the Mets four game winning streak in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports |

09-15-18 | North Texas v. Arkansas -7 | 44-17 | Loss | -106 | 93 h 23 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #174 Arkansas Razorbacks over North Texas Mean Green (4p.m., Saturday, September 15 SECN) The Razorbacks should be able to get back on track at home against North Texas on Saturday. This will be the first true road game for the Mean Green and they are just 8-16 ATS in their last 24 games as a road underdog. Arkansas had a big lead last week before Colorado State rallied to finally one a game this season. This will be a setup for North Texas and they are just 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games after allowing less than 20 points in their previous game. Arkansas losing last week makes them a play this week, as Coach Chad Morris will have his team’s attention all week and will play a full 4 quarters on Saturday. |

09-15-18 | LSU +9.5 v. Auburn | 22-21 | Win | 100 | 93 h 57 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #153 LSU Tigers over Auburn Tigers (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 15 CBS) Not too many teams put more talent on the field than does LSU and Auburn is not one of those teams. LSU won last year and I see them game going down to the wire yet again. LSU has the defense to contain the Auburn offense and if LSU can protect the football they should be in position to win this game in the fourth quarter. LSU is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 road games. These have been low scoring games in the last 4 meetings in Auburn and getting close to double digits is too good to pass up. |

09-15-18 | Tulane -3.5 v. UAB | Top | 24-31 | Loss | -110 | 49 h 2 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #163 Tulane Green Wave over UAB Blazers (1p.m., Saturday, September 15 Facebook) NONCONFERENCE GAME OF THE YEAR UAB decided to bring back football for some reason after a two-year absence, but I just do not believe they can compete with teams from the American Athletic Conference. UAB is -77.5 ATS in their last 4 lined games and have lost 4 straight games against Tulane. The Green Wave are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 nonconference games. Tulane is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games against UAB. Tulane just missed out on being bowl eligible last year and with Ohio State on deck this is a must win game for them in their hopes of reaching 6 wins. Tulane returns a ton of experience on offense led by QB Bank and WR Encalade. They should be able to pick apart the Blazers on defense and I just do not believe UAB will be able to keep pace. Tulane pulls away in the second half to win this game by double digits. |

09-14-18 | BC v. Montreal +3.5 | 32-14 | Loss | -110 | 32 h 7 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #660. Montreal vs BC (Friday @ 7:30p.m. est). The bye week couldn't have come at a worse time for Montreal as they were enjoying two consecutive wins against Toronto and Ottawa. However, the bye week will give them a chance to prepare for a BC defense that is among the best in the league and one that just held the high flying RedBlacks offense to just 14 points. Montreal may have found a diamond in the rough in the shape of QB Antonio Pipken. Pipken has completed 64.3 percent of his 84 passing attempts for 762 yards over his last three starts. The offense is completing more 2nd down conversions and is ultimately helping the defense stay off the field and rested up for when it's their turn to make their mark on the game. The defense should be able to leave a lasting impression on this game, considering that the Lions are going to trot out Travis Lulay once again, who left last week's game with ?concussion-like symptoms?. All seems to be fine for Lulay, but I'm not buying it. I'm also not buying the offense, who just lost their best wide receiver in Emmanuel Arceneaux who suffered a torn ACL. The Als will also be eager to extract a little revenge on the lions as they lost the season opener by a 22-10 score. The Als have covered their last 4 games and are 6-2 ATS following their bye week. The Lions are 0-5 ATS vs a team with a losing record and just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games. |

4 Units - #618 Washington over Seattle 9/12 *8 EST No doubt the Mystics will be fired up at home for this one, as Seattle is 5-0 at home in the playoffs but also lost both their road games in the Phoenix series. This is an elimination game for Washington who barely lost the last game. Seattle off their last 5 wins, the following game they have lost SU 4 times, versus the Mystics off a SU loss the last 6 times, they are 5-1 SU the next game. Washington played much better in Game 2 than I expected, and to stave off elimination I think they get a big win at home tonight and I expect superstar Elna Della Donne to have a big night at home as well. The Mystics 2nd in the post season on defense, I expect that to come to shine tonight at home as well.  |

09-09-18 | Chiefs +3.5 v. Chargers | 38-28 | Win | 100 | 93 h 10 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #469 Kansas City Chiefs over Los Angeles Chargers (4:05p.m., Sunday September 9 CBS) We will gladly grab the points in this AFC West game. The Chiefs did not look very good for most of the preseason, but Andy Reid has never had a strong record in exhibition play. The Chargers always seem to start out the season slow and there is added pressure on them this year as many feel they are the teams to beat in the AFC West. Kansas City won both meetings last year by double digits and eight straight overall (6-2 ATS). Expect this to be a closer game by Kansas City pulls it out straight-up. |

10 Unit Play. Take #462 New York Giants over Jacksonville Jaguars (1p.m., Sunday September 9 FOX) Jacksonville is going to start the year in an unfamiliar role, as a road favorite. I see them taking a step back this season and things have to be better for the Giants in 2018. Jacksonville is just 2-6 ATS in road openers in recent years. QB Manning has numerous weapons this season, something he sorely lacked as the 2017 season progressed. Jacksonville’s defense feasted on bad quarterback play in their own division and I expect them to give up points and yards against effective quarterbacks. Jacksonville is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games played during the month of December. |

4 Unit Play. Take #460 Baltimore Ravens over Buffalo Bills (1p.m., Sunday September 9 CBS) Many believe that this is a make or break year for Coach Harbaugh and he will be replaced if his team does not make the playoffs. They will be able to get off to a good start since Buffalo appears to be in rebuild mode after making the playoffs in 2017. The Ravens looked dominating in exhibition play and have scored over around 29 points per game over their last 9 contests. Baltimore is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 Week 1 games. |

10 Unit Play. Take #368 Missouri Tigers over Wyoming Cowboys (7p.m., Saturday September 8 ESPN U) The Tigers should have saw the blueprint of how to beat Wyoming if they scouted the game last week. Do not turn the ball over and make the Cowboys drive the 75 yards plus to score. Wyoming only had success last week against Washington State when the Cougars gave them short fields. The Cowboys were terrible on offense and will not be able to keep up in scoring in this game. Missouri has a tempo offense that usually scores points often and quickly especially against inferior competition. Wyoming is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games played in September. Missouri is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. |

4 Unit Play. Take #364 Georgia Southern Eagles over Massachusetts Minuteman (6p.m., Saturday September 8 ESPN+) The Minuteman got pounded last week against their in-state rivals and I do not see things getting any better on Saturday. The Eagles are a run heavy team and are a tough team to prep for with only a week’s time. UMASS pounded Georgia Southern last year and you can bet the Eagles have remembered that embarrassing performance. Throw in the fact this is the second straight road game for the Minutemen and I see the Eagles pulling away late. Georgia Southern is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games. |

Take #353 Colorado Buffaloes over Nebraska Cornhuskers (3:30p.m., Saturday September 8 ABC) There is great excitement for the Scott Frost era in Lincoln, but like Chip Kelly found out last week success does not happen overnight. Colorado put forth a dominating performance last week against Colorado State and Nebraska has yet to play a game this season. Fan enthusiasm can only take Nebraska so far this season and I truly believe that the wrong team is favored in this game. Nebraska is 1-9 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 12 home games. Colorado is 11-4 ATS in their last 5 games against Nebraska. |

09-08-18 | Hamilton -5 v. Toronto | 36-25 | Win | 100 | 50 h 0 m | Show | |
8-Unit Play. Take #653. Hamilton -5 vs Toronto (Saturday @ 1:00p.m. est). It's already been a long and painful season for the Toronto Argonauts and losing 42-28 to their rival Hamilton in last week's Labour Day Classic is par for the course. The offense was once again anemic, posting just 221 total yards of offense compared to Hamiltons 543 yards. Quarterback, McLeod Bethel-Thompson played extremely poorly, completing just 14/29 passes for 163 and an INT. That was more so an indication of how Hamilton's defense is starting to come around. They haven't given up more than 30 points in five-straight, winning four of those games. Another week of practice will do the Argos no help especially at home, where they have been a terrible bet over the last few years. The Ti-Cats have seemed to figure things out offensively, as they've over 500 yards in back-to-back games. QB Jeremiah Masoli is finally playing like the No.1 QB the Tiger-Cats want him to be and the results have followed. Against an Argos team that is completely lacking confidence, I see no reason to believe the Tiger-Cats can't replicate their performance from last week and get the job done in this spot. Hamilton has covered in 10 of the last 13 meetings and is 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 road games overall. |

09-08-18 | New Mexico v. Wisconsin -34.5 | 14-45 | Loss | -106 | 70 h 47 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #316 Wisconsin Badgers over New Mexico Lobos (12p.m., Saturday September 8 BTN) New Mexico is a poor man’s version of Wisconsin with a run heavy offense without a strong passing game. Wisconsin should be able to overpower New Mexico on both sides of the football. The Lobos dominated last week against a team nobody has heard of in Incarnate Word. Coach Chryst always seems to be aware of the point spread evident by the fact he had his quarterback throw deep late in the fourth quarter last Friday. New Mexico is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 nonconference games. Wisconsin is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games after an ATS loss in their previous game. With New Mexico State on deck, the Lobos just want to get their payout from this game, stay healthy, and score a few points. They will lose by 40 points. |

09-07-18 | Mystics +5 v. Storm | 76-89 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 19 m | Show | |
4 Units – #613 Washington (+5) vs Seattle 9/7  *9 EST
Just too many points against the Mystics who have the best player on the floor in Elana Della Donne (fully healthy again) and also the 2nd best defense at 77 ppg allowed in the post season. Seattle is 16-4 SU at home and slightly the better team in this series, but the numbers and stats the last 5 games are dead even and Washington’s free throw % is through the roof and in a tight game that means down late or up late in a tight game that makes the difference between a cover or non-cover, 86% their last 5 games. The Mystics also have a rebounding edge. Washington 6-2 ATS their last 8 road games and 10-4 ATS their last 14 games. |

4 Units – #609 Phoenix (+4) vs Seattle 9/4  *10 EST
All 4 games decided by 4 points or less. Phoenix the better free throw shooting team which is big with 2 evenly matched teams, and frankly Seattle has not played all that well in this series. The KEY in my mind is the second half play of the Mercury is hard to overlook, they have outscored Seattle in the fourth quarter of this series 94-37, and that has backdoor cover written all overt it in what should be a last second thriller in this game 5 finale.  |

09-02-18 | Miami-FL -3 v. LSU | 17-33 | Loss | -109 | 18 h 19 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #217 Miami FL -3 over LSU (Sunday, September 2nd at 7:30 PM ET) Take Miami FL ATS as my 7-Unit CFB Smash for Sunday night. This pick falls into one of my top CFB systems and I have the Hurricanes winning this game by 10+ points Sunday night. The Hurricanes return 14 starts 7 on offense and 7 on defense including their quarterback while LSU returns just 10 starts with 5 on each side of the ball and not their starting quarterback from last season. This Canes team has never looked better and I expect them to get off to a quick start on both sides of the ball that will silence the crowd in Dallas. The Hurricanes were one of only 22 teams in all of college football to allow less than 20 ppg last year during the regular season and you can expect this defense to be hungry for the turnover chain again this season. The Canes are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games played during the month of September and the Tigers are just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against an ACC opponent. Play Miami FL ATS. |

4 Units - #606 Phoenix (-2.5) over Seattle 9/2 *5 EST
Game 4 of a crucial semi final and the Phoenix is at home off a 20-point blowout win. Seattle is the best team in the NBA but short on the bench and they ran out of gas the last game and I think with Phoenix facing elimination at home in this game without a win today, and the way their defense is playing, they can get over on Seattle here and live to fight it out on the road in game 5. The Mercury are first in the WNBA in the post season in scoring, and second in rebounding to date and 5-0 ATS their last 5 games, I am going to ride them here today. |

09-02-18 | Winnipeg v. Saskatchewan -3 | 23-31 | Win | 100 | 74 h 11 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #644. Saskatchewan vs Winnipeg (Sunday @ 3:00p.m. est). This is a critical matchup for both teams as Winnipeg sits a game back of Saskatchewan for 3rd place in the West Division. The Riders are also just one game back of Edmonton for second, so both teams know a win could turn their season around. The Riders come into this game in excellent form, winners of two in a row including a 40-27 win over the first place Calgary Stampeders. A big reason for the two wins has been the play of Zach Collaros. Collaros has thrown for 485 yards and a TD, so he should be able to pick apart a Blue Bombers defense that has given up 813 yards and five touchdowns over their last two games to opposing QB's. Offensively for Winnipeg, Matt Nichols has struggled and the run game is doing him no favors. Against a defense as stout as the Riders - who are tied for first in sacks with 23 - Winnipeg might find life on the road tough in this rivalry game. The Riders are in form right now and at home in front of their home crowd. With Winnipeg playing their second straight road game, I'll side with the team that's covered the spread in 6 of their last 9 games. Take Saskatchewan. |

09-02-18 | Red Sox -1.5 v. White Sox | 0-8 | Loss | -108 | 4 h 34 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #917 Boston (-1.5 RL) over Chicago (AL) (2:10 p.m. Sunday, September 2) While other teams made some interesting moves and trades this past week, Boston chose not to and stood pat with what they had on their roster. It makes sense for the Red Sox to feel that way seeing how they are 51 games above .500 for the season. Brian Johnson will be on the mound for Boston tonight and he has won his last three decisions and I think he will make it a fourth today. James Shields has a record of 5-15 this season but has not faced Boston this year. He is 9-14 through 28 starts against the Red Sox in his career and I think he will have a tough time picking up a win in this matchup. The season series is tied at 3 games apiece between these ball clubs and I think the Sox will win this final contest. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports |

09-01-18 | Marshall -1 v. Miami-OH | 35-28 | Win | 100 | 99 h 2 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #179 Marshall Thundering Herd over Miami (OH) Redhawks (3:30p.m., Saturday September 1 ESPN+) This was a very competitive game in 2017 with Marshall pulling out a 31-26 victory. That is about how I see this game going as well, with the traditional of success Marshall has being the difference. The Herd has dominated this series winning 9 of the 10 meetings (7-3 ATS). Both teams return a ton of experience but Marshall was 4-0 ATS in 2017 in their last 4 road games and Miami is just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games. |

09-01-18 | Washington State v. Wyoming +1.5 | Top | 41-19 | Loss | -106 | 97 h 60 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #206 Wyoming Cowboys over Washington State Cougars (3:30p.m., Saturday September 1 CBSSN) TOP PLAY OF THE WEEKEND. Wyoming lost QB Josh Allen to the Buffalo Bills but they return a ton of starters all around that position. Washington State does not start off well under Coach Mike Leach, losing 5 of their 6 openers including two against FCS teams. Wyoming has a strong defense and playing in Laramie is always a tough challenge. Wyoming is 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games. Washington State is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games. Getting points makes this our strongest play, as we fully expect the Cowboys to win this game straight-up. |

09-01-18 | Houston -25 v. Rice | 45-27 | Loss | -108 | 94 h 43 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #153 Houston Cougars over Rice Owls (12p.m., Saturday September 1 CBSSN) The Owls are in a complete rebuild with a new coach after going 1-11 last season. They won last week against Prairie View A&M and that may be their only win they get this season. Houston has won the last 4 meetings with Rice by an average of 25 points per game. Rice was 0-4 ATS in nonconference games in 2017 and they are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games when they are a double-digit underdog. Houston is 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games played in September. Rice is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games. |

08-31-18 | Colorado State v. Colorado -7.5 | 13-45 | Win | 100 | 79 h 11 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #148 Colorado Buffaloes over Colorado State Rams (9:30p.m., Friday August 31 CBSSN) Colorado State got embarrassed last week against Hawaii. Their offense put up a ton of yards but most of it came in garbage time as they were down big in the second half and had to throw the football on every down. Colorado has owned this series of late going 8-2 and winning by an average of 16 points per game. The Buffaloes have tape on the Rams and that should benefit them a great deal in this game. Expect them to jump on the Rams early and cruise to a double-digit victory. |

08-31-18 | San Diego State v. Stanford -14 | 10-31 | Win | 100 | 79 h 39 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #150 Stanford Cardinal over San Diego State Aztecs (9p.m., Friday August 31 FS1) The Aztecs were not the same team as the 2017 season progressed. They started 6-0 but then got blown out in back to back home games and also suffered an embarrassing bowl loss to Army. Stanford has revenge in their corner after losing at San Diego in 2017 to this Aztec team. It will be hard for the Aztecs to overpower the Cardinal and I just do not believe SDSU can make enough plays in the passing game to have this be a competitive game. Stanford has won 10 straight home openers by an average of 25 points per game. SDSU is 6-13 ATS in their last 19 games against PAC-12 teams. Stanford is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games played on Friday. |

08-30-18 | Bills +3 v. Bears | 28-27 | Win | 100 | 54 h 38 m | Show | |
1 Unit Play. Take #117 Buffalo Bills over Chicago Bears (8p.m., Thursday August 30) The Bears caught the Chiefs off guard last week with how well they played despite resting their starters. They will do that again, but Buffalo will be ready for them since nobody will be playing their regulars. The Bills still have a quarterback competition going and thus expect them to go all out in hopes of winning that starting job. Buffalo will win this game straight-up and getting points is just icing on the cake. |

08-30-18 | Central Florida v. Connecticut +23.5 | 56-17 | Loss | -110 | 53 h 37 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #134 Connecticut Huskies over UCF Golden Knights (7p.m., Thursday August 30 ESPN U) We saw last week with Hawaii and Colorado State and feel the same theme holds true again. This is just too many points to be giving in an opening game, especially an opening conference game. UCF is still loaded but I do not believe Josh Heupel is on par as a coach with Scott Frost. UCONN is 12-3 straight-up in home openers. The Golden Knights will pull away late and win this game by double digits, but it will fall short of this huge number. |

08-28-18 | Mystics v. Dream +2 | 75-78 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show | |
6 Units - #318 Atlanta over Washington 8/28 *8 EST Yes, I had Washington in Game 1 here and they won by 3. Atlanta was a hot team, like Washington headed into this series, and these two teams are fairly evenly matched, and I simply do not see Atlanta losing back to back games at home in the playoff series here and they have the added motivation of defending their home court after a loss, a home court they are 9-2 ATS on their last 11 home games. ATL allows 78 ppg at home and overall in their last 5 games average 8 ppg more on offense than Washington. Washington shot 38% from the floor versus Atlanta's 43% and still won because they hit 100% of their free throws, they were 20 for 20 and are the best free throw shooting team in the WNBA at over 90% on the year. Call it a gut instinct but I think Atlanta's defense shores up here and they are better on the defensive glass. Atlanta outscored Washington is 2 quarters, had the same amount of points in the 2nd quarter and lost only 1 quarter in the scoring battle. Atlanta 13-5 SU and 12-6 ATS on the year and this is a do or die scenario form them with double revenge. |

08-26-18 | Mystics -2 v. Dream | 87-84 | Win | 100 | 4 h 31 m | Show | |
 4 Units - #315 Washington over Atlanta 8/26 *3 EST Washington’s defense 10 ppg their last 5 games and they are red hot. Washington won the last meeting between these two in mid-July by 15 points as a 5.5 road dog. Their last game Washington had all 5 starters in double digits. Washington in what should be a tight game here also has shot 90.6% from the free throw line in the last 5 games and I think this is the game Atlanta really misses their stud Angel McCoughtry who has been out awhile, but none the less Washington in my mind is the better on the road here. |
|||||||
08-25-18 | Hawaii +14.5 v. Colorado State | 43-34 | Win | 100 | 101 h 52 m | Show | |
2 Unit Play. Take #293 Hawaii Rainbow Warriors over Colorado State Rams (7:30p.m., Saturday August 25 CBSSN) The Rams lost a ton of talent from last year and have been without their head coach Mike Bobo. He is dealing with an illness and I just do not see a blowout against a conference opponent. Hawaii took a step back last year under Nick Rolovich but they will be competitive in this game losing to the Rams by just single digits. Colorado State is 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games. Hawaii is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games played during August. |
|||||||
08-25-18 | Winnipeg +9.5 v. Calgary | 26-39 | Loss | -115 | 50 h 1 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #365. Winnipeg vs Calgary (Saturday @ 3:30pm. Est). The Calgary Stampeder saw their perfect record go up in flames last week at the hands of the Saskatchewan Roughriders. In that game, they looked sluggish and for the first time all year vulnerable on the defensive side of the football. They allowed the Riders to move the ball at will, so that's a worrying sign for them as they come into this game against the highest scoring team in the league. The bombers are averaging 32.1 points per game but are coming off a game in which they were thoroughly outclassed. We expect them to be better in every aspect this week, against one of the premier teams in the league. We also expect the Bombers to do a great job of rushing the passer and making Bo-Levi Mitchell uncomfortable under center. The Stamps gave up five sacks last week, and turned the ball over five times. Not too often will a team that played as poorly as the Stamps did, come back and blow out a solid team and cover a near double-digit point spread. The Bombers are 13-4 in ATS in their last 17 games as an underdog while the Stamps are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 vs the West Division. |

08-25-18 | Chiefs v. Bears -1 | Top | 20-27 | Win | 100 | 94 h 23 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #266 Chicago Bears over Kansas City (1p.m., Saturday, August 25 NFLN) NFL PRESEASON GAME OF THE YEAR. Yes Patrick Mahomes made a great play last week against the Falcons throwing a pass 65 yards in the air for a touchdown. But that being said, he has not looked that great in camp this year and I have very little faith he will lead the Chiefs to a successful season this year. This is an important game for the Bears and their new head coach Matt Nagy. He is a rookie head coach playing his first home game and expect the Bears to show more stuff today than they have done all preseason long. Andy Reid is well under .500 as a coach in the exhibition season and I look for more of the same in this game. Chicago gets up early in this game and wins it by 7-10 points. |

08-23-18 | Edmonton +3.5 v. Hamilton | 24-25 | Win | 100 | 6 h 7 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #361. Edmonton vs Hamilton (Thursday @ 7:30p.m. est). The Edmonton Eskimos come into tonight's game against the Tiger Cats with revenge on their mind. It was the Ti cats who gave the Eskimos their first lost way back in mid-June. Since then, the Eskimos have show the CFL that they are for real this season, winning four of the past 5 games including last week's 40-24 victory over Montreal. The Eskimos have seem to found a bit of a running attack in the form of Shaq Cooper. Cooper ran for 102 yards on 17 carries and found the end zone once. If he can put up similar numbers, which we expect him to do against a very poor TiCats run defense, the Eskimos will have no trouble avenging their loss. The run game will keep the defense honest and Reilly will do his thing, as he leads the league in total passing yards with 3,046, including 424 last week. The TiCats on the other hand are brutal. They went into last week's bye with just 1 win in their last five games and have yet to find a solution for the offensive woes. In a game where we expect Edmonton to control the play, the TiCats should not be favoured here, or against anyone for that matter. The Eskimos are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 following a SU win while the TiCats are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a bye week. |

Wash. 6-1 their last 7 games with 3 or more days rest. LA is not consistent, and just 1-10 ATS their next game following a win. Washington took 2 out of 3 from LA and beat them the last game in here by 2 points and shot 38% from the floor and still won. LA hitting only 39% from the floor their last 5 games, have 2 players not 100% including Parker who scores 17 ppg. Like Washington here with the better offense, rested and at home. |

08-23-18 | Padres v. Rockies -1.5 | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 50 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. Take #906 Colorado (-1.5 RL) over San Diego (3:10 p.m. Thursday, August 23) Colorado's playoff chances are alive and well in the National League West and for the Wild Card. Beating the weakest team in your division at home to win a series is a must though if you intend to make the playoffs. Luckily for the Rockies, Kyle Freeland will be on the mound. Freeland surprisingly has pitched better at Coors Field than he has on the road this season going 7-2 with a 2.22 ERA through 11 starts in Colorado, with one of those wins being an 8-0 win against the Padres on April 24th. Joey Lucchesi will be on the mound for the Padres and he has an ERA over 4.5 over his last 7 starts averaging less than 5 innings per start. Freeland meanwhile has been on his game over his last 5 starts going 3-1 with a 1.72 ERA allowing just 1 home run over 31 1/3 innings. I think the Rockies offense will produce off Lucchesi and take the series with a win today. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports |

4 Units - #307 Minnesota vs LA 8/21  * 8 ESTYou have 2 evenly matched teams on paper here, which brings points into play. What really brings points into play here is you have the #1 and #2 defensive teams in the WNBA and the #9 and #10 ranked offenses. The total is 152 for a reason. LA lost their last 2 games and 4 out of their last 6 games, and those 2 wins were both against a bad NY team. In their last 5 game averages it is Minnesota with a 46% from the floor shooting average and LA has struggled shooting 39% overall and 32% from 3-point range. I expect a low scoring affair here (Total is 152.5) and a close game. I will take the road dog Minny here who covers better on the road than at home this season. Brunson is a game time decision for Minny but latest reports are she is going to play after concussion protocol. Bear in mind Minnesota are defending champions and wioll not go down without a fight. Ogwumike for LA is listed as doubtful. |

1 Unit Play. Take #424 Houston Texans over San Francisco 49ers (8p.m., Saturday, August 18) We used Houston last week as an underdog and that game was never in doubt as they won straight-up. The 49ers have a back-up quarterback competition, but I just do not believe either one of them is any good (Beathard/Mullens). Houston has a solid quarterback rotation behind starter DeShaun Watson and expect a similar game as was played last Thursday night against the Chiefs. |

08-18-18 | BC v. Toronto +3 | 23-24 | Win | 100 | 6 h 13 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #374. Toronto +3 vs BC (Saturday@ 4:00p.m. est). If there was ever a terrible time for a bye week, it was last week for the Toronto Argonauts. After storming back and scoring 22-fourth quarter points on route to a dramatic 42-41 comeback win against Ottawa, the Argos seem to have a little momentum on their side and last week's bye only helps them get healthier and sharper as a team. They now take on the BC Lions a team who is also coming off a second half comeback of their own. The problem with the Lions is that they are inconsistent at best on both sides of the ball. The Argos will once again start McLeod Bethel-Thompson who performed well in his season debut throwing for 302 yards and 4 touchdowns. He also rushed for 54 yards on 6 attempts. Another positive for the double blue is the performance of SJ Green who finished with 134 yards and 2 TD's. Against a Lions defense that has given up over 20 points in three straight games, this is another solid opportunity for the Argonauts to break out offensively and get back in the hunt for a postseason spot. The Argos are 3-0 SU after a bye week under Marc Trestman and are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after a SU win. |

08-17-18 | Rays v. Red Sox -1.5 | 3-7 | Win | 115 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #920 Boston (-1.5 RL) over Tampa Bay (7:10 p.m. Friday, August 17) Boston is a ridiculous 50 games over .500 on the season and they have a chance to win the most games in the regular season ever. They have already gone 9-4 against the Rays on the season and I think they will get the job done and win tonight as well. Brian Johnson will start the game for the Red Sox and he has pitched well as a starter or in relief this season. Ryne Stanek will do something that few players have ever done as he will be the starter for tonight's game after pitching an inning of relief in yesterday's contest. Stanek will only pitch and inning or two, if he lasts that long, because Boston hitters have had his number as they have hit .429 off him. Boston is 11-2 in August and I think they keep it rolling with another win tonight. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports |

5 Units – #306 Washington over LA 8/17 *7 EST Going with the short number here and Wash. At home where they are 10-5 this season and the one key in this matchup is Offense. Washington has it, LA does not. The Mystics rank 4th in the WNBA in points per game and 1st in the WNBA in Free Throws and have Elena Delle Donne, who is an absolute rock star player, leads the team in points and rebounds. Washington also has the 5th ranked defense in the WNBA and are 3rd at defending the 3-point shot. Last 5 game comparisons, Washington scoring 89 ppg and LA 77. Both allowed 78 ppg on defense in those 5 games, and we have LA on a cross country road trip here as well. Washington has won and covered 6 in a row and LA has dropped 5 straight ATS. I like Washington here by 7-8 points tonight, I think this is a very cheap number. |

The Mercury are also 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games against an Eastern Conference opponent and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against the Fever. The Fever are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games after a loss and just 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games overall. Play Phoenix ATS. |

10-Unit Play. Take #966 NY Yankees (-1.5 RL) over Texas (7:05 p.m. Friday, August 10) The Yankees had a bit of a wake up call after getting shellacked in Boston in a 4 game sweep and have responded by winning four straight contests. They returned to the friendly confines of Yankees Stadium last night where they are 39-16 on the season bopping 5 home runs in a 7-3 win. Masahiro Tanaka will be on the mound for New York tonight and he has an ERA under 2 over his last six starts. Tanaka wasn't at his best in his only start against the Rangers this year on May 21st when he allowed 4 runs over 5 innings, but he still picked up the win as the Yanks won 10-5. Mike Minor will be pitching for Texas tonight and he hasn't started opposite the Yankees since 2012. Minor hasn't been very good on the road this season as he is 3-4 with a 6.50 ERA and opponents batting .288 off him. I think the Yankees keep their streak going and pick up another win here. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports |

4-Unit Play. Take #617 Minnesota over Las Vegas (Thursday, August 9th at 10:00 PM ET) Take Minnesota ATS as my 4-Unit WNBA Smash for Thursday night. This pick falls into one of my top WNBA systems and the Lynx are the superior team here tonight. The Lynx are 5-1-1 in their last 7 road games against the Aces and the Aces are just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games when playing a team with a winning record. The Lynx are coming off a dominate win over Chicago and I look for them to build on that win as this team is much better than their record indicates. The Aces have dropped 3 straight and now face a hungry Lynx team with revenge in mind. The last two road games against the Aces the Lynx won by 15 and 19 points and I do expect a dominate win by them again tonight. Play Minnesota ATS. |

10 Unit Play. Take #274 Seattle Seahawks over Indianapolis Colts (10p.m., Thursday, August 9) Many experts have Seattle trending down this year and Pete Carroll is facing adversity for one of the few times during his Seattle tenure. Coach Carroll is 6-2 straight-up in his last 8 Week 1 exhibition games and they have coordinators on both sides of the football that want to make a statement in this game. Seattle went 4-0 last year in the preseason and they are 7-1 ATS the last two years in exhibition play. Indianapolis has a long legacy of losing during the preseason and that will continue on Thursday. Coach Frank Reich is coming off a Super Bowl win as a coordinator and he does not have the pressure to light it up during preseason play. Throw in the status of Andrew Luck and I am just not sold on their back-ups (Brissett, Kaaya, & Walker). Seattle wins this game by double digits. |

08-09-18 | Edmonton -3 v. BC | 23-31 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 32 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #351. Edmonton vs British Columbia (Thursday @ 10:00p.m. est). The Edmonton Eskimos seem to have finally found their footing this season, posting three straight wins against three different teams in three completely different fashions. They now head to BC to take on a Lions team that is coming off back-to-back losses and are playing on a short week. The Lions mustered just 335 total yards last week against the Stampeders and I expect them to struggle moving the ball against an Eskimos defense that has picked up the slack during the three-game winning streak. Travis Lulay remains under center for the Lions and has put up just four touchdowns and two interceptions in 112 passing attempts. How on earth is that production going to keep the Lions in the game against and Eskimos offense that has scored 28 points per game over their three game winning streak. Reilly has thrown for a league high 2,320 yards and 14 touchdowns in the first seven games. Safe to say he is aiming for a second-consecutive MOP award. This line may seem like a trap line but don't be fooled. The better team here is the Eskimos and they are well rested and need this win to keep pace with the Stampeders. Edmonton is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 vs the West and 4-0 ATS in their last four against the Lions. |

08-09-18 | Texans +2.5 v. Chiefs | 17-10 | Win | 100 | 55 h 57 m | Show | |
1 Unit Play. Take #269 Houston Texas over Kansas City Chiefs (8:30p.m., Thursday, August 9) I feel that the Chiefs bit off more than they can chew this season. They ran off Alex Smith and have put all their eggs in the Patrick Mahomes basket. He has not looked good during camp and do not expect much from him tonight. Houston has a solid preseason quarterback rotation including a much better young quarterback in DeShaun Watson that what Kansas City has. Throw in back-ups Brandon Weeden and Joe Webb and expect Houston to win this game straight-up. Getting points just makes this an even stronger selection. |
