11-04-15 | Spurs v. Wizards +4.5 | 99-102 | Win | 100 | 8 h 27 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over Spurs- After dropping their season opener the Spurs have won three straight including the first two of their three-game road trip as they play the back end final game tonight in Washington. San Antonio used the shut down defense of Kawhi Leonard to hold New York's Carmelo Anthony to 4-for-17 shooting. The Wizards have been off since their first loss on Saturday to the Knicks 117-110. With San Antonio defeating the team that Washington lost to I expect a turn around here with the home team getting a the win. Take the WIZARDS! |

11-03-15 | Magic +3 v. Pelicans | 103-94 | Win | 100 | 10 h 16 m | Show | |
Orlando at New Orleans 8:00 ET Magic (+) over Pelicans- A pair of 0-3 clubs square off in New Orleans where the Pelicans who are also 0-3 ATS host Orlando who is 3-0 ATS. The home club made the playoffs last season and fired their coach for Alvin Gentry and it was believed that he would guide Anthony Davis to top-player status. Davis has filled his billing but the supporting cast has yet to deliver. Some things to consider in that New Orleans is 2-6 ATS in their last eight against teams with a losing record and the Magic are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 meetings against the West. Take ORLANDO! |
|||||||
11-03-15 | Northern Illinois +8 v. Toledo | 32-27 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
Northern Illinois at Toledo 8:00 ET Huskies (+) over Rockets- Toledo is not only 7-0 on the season but 4-0 in MAC play and are ranked 20th nationally. Northern Illinois at 5-3 and 3-1 in MAC play has won three straight averaging 51 points in those contest while the Rockets have averaged 50.7 in their last three as well. Although the Huskies are just 5-11-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings the visitor is 4-0 in the last four meetings and the dog is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 and the Huskies are 19-6 ATS in their last 27 road games. Take NORTHERN ILLINOIS! |
|||||||
11-03-15 | Pacers +5.5 v. Pistons | 94-82 | Win | 100 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
Indiana at Detroit 7:30 ET Pacers (+) over Pistons- These teams have mirror records of each other as Indiana is 0-3 and Detroit is 3-0 both straight-up and against the points. One thing we know about the NBA season is that point spread records have a tendency to even out because of the adjustment made by the book-makers. The pacers have gone to a smaller quicker lineup and they haven't completely adjusted to the 'new' style as of yet. There will as contrast in styles here as the Pistons use a bigger more powerful lineup led by Andre Drummond averaging 16.3 rebounds a game. These two should come closer together tonight. Take INDIANA! |
|||||||
11-03-15 | Bulls v. Hornets +4 | Top | 105-130 | Win | 100 | 9 h 22 m | Show |
Chicago at Charlotte 7:05 ET Hornets (+) over Bulls- When looking at match-ups often times it is best to disregard a teams straight-up record and look to how hey are doing against the points because that is what pays off in the long run. Right now the 3-1 Bulls are 1-3 ATS while the 0-3 Hornets are 1-1-1 ATS and still searching for their first win of the season. Chicago has not been good against the NBA Southeast as they are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 while Charlotte is 10-4 ATS against teams with a winning percentage above .600. In need of their initial win of the season the Hornets get it here. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
11-02-15 | Colts +7 v. Panthers | Top | 26-29 | Win | 100 | 11 h 48 m | Show |
Indianapolis at Carolina 8:30 ET Colts (+) over Panthers- The Colts have been one of the more disappointing clubs this season in the NFL as they have posted just three wins in seven contests while Carolina has been the most pleasant of surprises remaining undefeated at 7-0. Cam Newton has silenced his critic while the boo-bird have struck-out on Andrew Luck. In Luck's defense it seems that has been revealed that he has played with cracked ribs as well as an injured shoulder. Indianapolis is last in the NFL in defense allowing an average of 408.6 yards a game. The Panthers are off two huge wins against Seattle and Philadelphia and have won 10 straight regular season games while the Colts have dropped their last two. Fortunes change tonight. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |
|||||||
11-02-15 | Thunder v. Rockets +4 | Top | 105-110 | Win | 100 | 10 h 36 m | Show |
Oklahoma City at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Thunder- Many predicted that the Houston Rockets were 'the' team to dethrone Golden State in the West but they have opened the season 0-3 and have yet to even 'cover' a game for their backers. Oklahoma City is 3-0 with a healthy Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook has been his usual outstanding self. The biggest problem for the Rockets has been the play of James Harden who is the curse of dating a Kardashian shoot blanks (12-of-54 from the field) having yet to shoot 30% in a game. Houston has had the Thunders' number winning the last four meetings. Things change but the beat goes on here...take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
11-02-15 | Cavs v. 76ers +13.5 | 107-100 | Win | 100 | 9 h 39 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Philadelphia 7:00 ET 76ers (+) over Cavaliers- The Cavaliers are 3-0 ATS and are off an emotion win over the Miami Heat as LeBron James is keeping Kevin Love happy by feeding him the ball as often as possible. Cleveland who lost in the NBA Finals last season has added depth to their squad and once again are favored to win the East. Philadelphia (0-2) still has young talent and one of those talented players is Jahlil Okafor who is averaging 18 points in his first two starts. Nerlens Noel is averaging both 11 points and rebounds for the 76ers as they get better every time out. Take the generous points. Take PHILADELPHIA! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Mavs v. Lakers +3 | 103-93 | Loss | -102 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
Dallas at L.A. Lakers 9:30 ET Lakers (+) over Mavericks- The Lakers are once again 0-2 for the four time in the last five years and Sunday night they face an opponent they haven't defeated in two years. Losing seven straight in that span. Los Angeles has some fresh faces and with a healthy Randle will cause some clubs problems and that will start tonight. Kobe Bryant is due to get on track and it should be tonight. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Packers v. Broncos +3.5 | Top | 10-29 | Win | 100 | 32 h 29 m | Show |
Green Bay at Denver 8:30 ET Broncos (+) over Packers- The two might undefeated NFC and AFC power clash in Denver Sunday night where the Broncos host the Green Bay Packers. Most see this as a 'changing-of-the-guard' at quarterback where Peyton Manning will take a back seat to Aaron Rogers. Its been said that defense wins championships and although this is not a championship contest it will have the atmosphere of a playoff game and the Broncos own the better defense. The Packers top running back Eddie Lacy is hampered with a nagging ankle injury and Denver's dominant defense will come to the forefront. Take the BRONCOS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Seahawks v. Cowboys +5 | 13-12 | Win | 100 | 28 h 28 m | Show | |
Seattle at Dallas 4:25 ET Cowboys (+) over Seahawks- The Dallas Cowboys have dropped four straight since the injury to Tony Romo and now the defending conference champion Seahawks enter 'Jerry's World' in Arlington. The Cowboys truly out-played the Giants last week in their 27-20 loss but three Sam Cassel interceptions and a 100-yard kickoff return spelled their doom. The Seahawks are off an impressive 20-3 win over the 49ers (Big Deal) and still have more problems then most realize foremost is the pounding that Russell wilson is taking week-after-week. The Cowboys pass rush will be the difference here and they post a win. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Jets v. Raiders +3 | 20-34 | Win | 100 | 28 h 13 m | Show | |
New York Jets at Oakland 4:05 ET Raiders (+) over Jets- New York caught a dose of reality last Sunday when the Patriots dominated the fourth quarter to post a win most thought the Jets should have had. The letdown will be visible this week as New York travels cross country to play the upstart Raiders who are riding high off their pounding of San Diego 37-29. Oakland needs one win to match last season's total and they get New York in a low spot. Take the RAIDERS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Spurs v. Celtics +6 | 95-87 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 33 m | Show | |
San Antonio at Boston 3:30 Celtics (+) over Spurs- The Boston Celtics are looking to continue to grow as the NBA season progresses as they are taking a page out of the Spurs playbook by playing a 10-man rotation that has each player logging at least 14 minutes. The San Antonio Spurs are a veteran team take pride in playing deep into their rooster and keeping everybody fresh throughout the season and into the playoffs. Boston will be ready for this Sunday afternoon affair and surprise the Spurs. Take the CELTICS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Hawks v. Hornets +1.5 | 94-92 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 57 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Charlotte 2:00 ET Hornets (+) over Hawks- The Hornets played Hawks tough in Atlanta on Friday in a game they feel they could have and should have won and now return home to face them on their turf. Charlotte out-rebounded the Hawks on Friday but committed 20 turnovers while shooting only 33%. At 0-2 the Hornets are looking to post their first win of the in their home opener. Look for them to get that win here. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Vikings v. Bears +1.5 | 23-20 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 16 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Chicago 1:00 ET Bears (+) over Vikings- The Vikings accomplished a rare feat winning on the road last week and now will try and make it two-in-a-row against the Bears in Chicago who are coming off a bye. The Bears needed the time off to recover from their overtime loss to Detroit and now host the Vikings at Soldier Field where they have defeated the intruders seven straight time. With an extra week to prepare and a trend in their favor the best goes on in Chicago. Take the BEARS! |
|||||||
11-01-15 | Cardinals v. Browns +6 | 34-20 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 13 m | Show | |
Arizona at Cleveland 1:00 ET Browns (+) over Cardinals- The Browns know what they will be up against as Chris Johnson who ranks second in the NFL with 567 yards rushing faces the league worst rushing defense allowing 151 yards per game on the ground. Things have a way of reversing themselves in the NFL and I expect Cleveland to prepare for the Cardinals attack including Carson Palmer as Arizona makes its first trip to Cleveland in 12 years and they last time they were here the Browns pounded the Redbirds 44-6. Somehow, they get the money again. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Suns +2.5 v. Blazers | 101-90 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
Phoenix at Portland 10:00 ET Suns (+) over Trailblazers- This is the second of back-to-back matchup where the the Suns posted a 110-92 win last night in Phoenix. Both clubs are 1-1 and have make impact rooster changes in the off-season. The Suns added center Tyson Chandler who had 15 points and 13 rebounds last night and Brandon Knight who is sharing the ball handling duties with Eric Bledsoe. Portland has lost four starters from last year's squad as just Damian Lillard remains. The Suns have improved while the Trailblazers have regressed. Take PHOENIX! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Warriors v. Pelicans +5 | 134-120 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
Golden State at New Orleans 7:35 ET Pelicans (+) over Warriors- The first rematch of the season take place already as the New Orleans Pelicans host their opening night foe and World Champion Golden State Warriors. The Warriors (2-0) won the opener at home 110-95 and followed that with a 112-92 win at Houston last night while the Pelicans (0-2) have yet to post a victory. Part of the problem for last last's playoff Pelicans is adjusting to new coach Alvin Gentry's offense but five injured players doesn't help. Still, New Orleans has Anthony Davis and he looks to respond from his worst career start in the opener where he was 4-for-20 from the field. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Tennessee v. Kentucky +9 | 52-21 | Loss | -105 | 30 h 53 m | Show | |
Tennessee at Kentucky 7:30 ET Wildcats (+) over Volunteers- The Tennessee Volunteers has gone toe-to-toe with the best the country has to offer and they went overtime and lost to Oklahoma after holding a 21-3 halftime lead, lost to Florida 28-27 after holding a 13 point fourth quarter lead, lost to Arkansas 24-20 and lost in the final minute 19-14 to Alabama last week. After so many great efforts (they did beat Georgia) they are so due for a mediocre or even a flat performance. Kentucky has dropped three straight to the points including last weeks beat-down by Mississippi State. Look for the Wildcats to jump on a down-trodden Vols squad. Take the WILDCATS! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Jazz +3.5 v. Pacers | 97-76 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
Utah at Indiana 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Pacers- Their will be a contrast in styles tonight as the (0-2) Pacers host the Utah Jazz in Indianapolis. Indiana is looking to put some punch in their offense but have neglected to play on the other end of the floor allowing and average of 109 points per games so far while the Jazz who led the NBA in scoring defense last season has allowed an average of 81.5 in their two games to date. Gone from the once formidable Pacers are Paul George, Roy Hibbert and David West and the transition will take time. Tonight take UTAH! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Georgia +3 v. Florida | 3-27 | Loss | -115 | 26 h 4 m | Show | |
Florida vs Georgia 3:30 ET Bulldogs (+) over Gators- Florida and Georgia are both coming off bye weeks as this game annually is played in Jacksonville, FL about half-way between both campus'. Florida ranks 12th nationally and has the 21st ranked rushing defense while Georgia has the 22nd ranked rushing offense. The Bulldogs who are 5-2 straight-up with their losses coming against Alabama and Tennessee are are just 1-5 ATS this season. This game could come down to a field goal and the Gators are in trouble has they had to have open try-outs to replace kicker Jorge Powell was injured last week and back-up austin Hardin has a leg injury. It a battle in the trenches...take GEORGIA! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Clemson v. NC State +10.5 | 56-41 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 2 m | Show | |
Clemson at N.C. State 3:30 ET Wolfpack (+) over Tigers- The Clemson Tigers are in the mist of a 7-game win streak and are of the annihilation of Miami 58-0. Their is one thing to always remember week-to-week in football and that is no team is as good as the looked the following week or as bad as they might appear. Clemson jumped out quick in the first quarter against the Hurricanes and it didn't take long before Miami just quit and rolled over and played dead. Their performance was the worst in school history and cost Al Golden his coaching job as the Tigers 'danced on his grave.' This week Clemson can't help but be a little 'off' as they have their ACC nemesis Florida State on deck and they might get caught peeking ahead to that pivotal matchup. Although Clemson has won 10 of the last 11 meetings and lead the lifetime series 54-28-1 they are in a tough spot against a decent 5-2 Wolfpack squad. Take N.C. STATE! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | Oklahoma State v. Texas Tech +3 | 70-53 | Loss | -120 | 26 h 56 m | Show | |
Oklahoma State at Texas Tech 3:30 ET Red Raiders (+) over Cowboys- The should be an old fashion shoot-out as these are two of the highest scoring teams in the nation as Oklahoma State averages 40.3 points and Texas Tech 46.6. The problem for theRed Raiders is that they also allow 40.1 points per contest. The key here is that undefeated (7-0) and No. 10 ranked OK State is favored by less the a field goal as they are coming off an emotional week after the tragedy deaths incurred during last Saturday's Homecoming. The student body has been walking around campus with tears in their eyes and heavy hearts the entire week and everyone is on an emotional downer. Look for the Red Raiders to take advantage and most likely win this game on the field. Take TEXAS TECH! |
|||||||
10-31-15 | USC v. California +6 | Top | 27-21 | Push | 0 | 26 h 40 m | Show |
USC at California 3:00 ET Golden Bears (+) over Trojans- We are coming off USC as a Best Bet over Utah last week and we were rewarded with a convincing victory as the Trojans rebounded from an emotional roller coast week. The Golden Bears who have dropped 11 straight to the Trojans are off a 40-24 beating against UCLA 10 days ago and have had enough time to heal from that letdown. Cal's junior quarterback Jared Goff who already hold 26 school records including passing yards (9,746) and touchdown passes (73) and their defense leads the nation in takeaways (22) will take control. Take CALIFORNIA! |
|||||||
10-30-15 | Warriors v. Rockets +2 | Top | 112-92 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 54 m | Show |
Golden State at Houston 9:35 ET Rockets (+) over Warriors- The defending NBA Champion Golden State Warriors opened their season in fine fashion as they out-ran New Orleans for an easy opening night 111-95 route. Last season the Warriors dominated the Rockets sweeping the season season 4-0 and now show up in Houston as a meager favorite after Houston's opening game loss without the suspended Dwight Howard. Coming off a 105-85 loss to the Denver Nuggets I expect the Rockets to come out big after suffereing their home loss as a 10-point favorite. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
10-30-15 | Hornets +6 v. Hawks | 94-97 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Atlanta 8:05 ET Hornets (+) over Hawks- The Atlanta Hawks rebounded from an opening night loss to Detroit by posting a 112-101 road win over the New York Knicks last night. The Hawks who had the best record in the Eastern Conference last season while Charlotte missed out on the playoffs last season and are determined to get into the post-season this time around. After dropping their opener they look to get even with an upset here. Take the HORNETS! |
|||||||
10-30-15 | Bulls v. Pistons +3 | 94-98 | Win | 100 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
Chicago at Detroit 7:30 ET Pistons (+) over Bulls- The Chicago Bulls are 2-0 as they knocked off the Cavaliers and Nets in their first two contests while the 2-0 Detroit Pistons handled the Hawks and Jazz. Detroit started last season 3-19 but managed to turn it around after the All-Star break and that trend has continued. The Pistons are 8-1 ATS in their last nine home games dating back to last season and have won 4 of the last 5 against the Bulls. Take DETROIT! |
|||||||
10-29-15 | Dolphins v. Patriots -8 | 7-36 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
Miami at New England 8:30 ET Dolphins (+) over Patriots- The Miami Dolphin look like a completely different team since they fired Joe Philbin as they have scored 82 points in their last two contests under Dan Campbell. Of course the New England Patriots just keep on rolling as long as they have last weeks leading rusher Tom Brady running the show. The Pats are leading the NFL scoring 35.5 points per game and have won eight of the last 10 meetings against Miami with the last Dolphins win coming in last years' season opener. Ryan Tannehill had a perfect passer rating last week and completed 25 Consecutive passes over a two game span but Brady has 16 touchdown passes and only one interception on the year. Look for Miami to inflate the footballs and thrown Brady off his game but it won't work. New England is 15-2 ATS in the second of back-to-back division games while the Dolphins are 1-12 straight-up and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 in Foxboro. Take the PATRIOTS! |
|||||||
10-29-15 | West Virginia +14.5 v. TCU | 10-40 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
West Virginia at Texas Christian 7:30 ET Mountaineers (+) over Horned Frogs- Sometimes one school or team just has another team or schools 'number' and this may be the case between West Virginia and TCU. Last season the Horned Frogs won 31-30 on a last-second field goal in Morgantown against the Mountaineers and this contest bring huge trends in favor of TCU. The Frogs are 12-0 ATS with extra rest while West Virginia is 0-7 ATS against the Big-12 when having rest. The yards per game are heavily tipped in TCU's favor as they are out-gaining opponents by 188 yards per contest and the Mountaineers are out-gained by their opponents 66 per game. Still, on national TV it's...WEST VIRGINIA! |
|||||||
10-29-15 | North Carolina -3 v. Pittsburgh | 26-19 | Win | 100 | 10 h 15 m | Show | |
North Carolina at Pittsburgh 7:00 ET Tar Heels (-) over Panthers- A pair of unlikely 6-1 ACC schools face-off and both are surprises for different reasons. North Carolina on a six-game win streak started the season with a horrible performance against South Carolina in their only loss has gone 4-2 ATS since. Pittsburgh lost their ACC Player of the Year in running back James Conner have managed to go 4-0 in conference play and it is surprising to find them an underdog at home. The Tar Heels have won the last two meetings and are 6-3 in this series overall. Just the fact that they are the favorite on the road turns my head. Take NORTH CAROLINA! |

10-28-15 | Clippers v. Kings +5.5 | 111-104 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Sacramento 10:05 ET Kings (+) over Clippers- The Los Angeles Clippers fell short in the second round of the NBA Playoffs last season when they fell apart against the Houston Rockets after blowing a 19-point lead in Game 6 of their series. The Clippers filled what they believe were some hole with the addition of Paul Pierce, Josh Smith and Lance Stephenson. The Clips may come to find that the addition of Stephenson might be more of a liability if his attitude doesn't change. The Kings have added Rajon Rondo who has had attitude problems of his own to side up with DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay. Cousins who clashed with coach George Karl saying that they discussed their differences like men and all is well. Time will tell but tonight 'can't we all just get along.' Take the KINGS! |

10-27-15 | Cleveland Cavaliers v. Chicago Bulls -3 | 95-97 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 34 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Chicago 8:00 ET Bulls over Cavaliers- The Cleveland Cavaliers went to the NBA Finals last season while playing with an exhausted LeBron James and a squad injured with three starters sidelined. James has missed the last two weeks of preseason games due to lower-back issues and that might have him ready but injuries still linger among his supporting cast. Kyrie Irving is still out as is Iman Shumpert and Kevin Love is back but, the question is how effective will he be. Chicago's Derek Rose says that he is ready to play and the Bulls remain solid in the middle with Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah. Take the BULLS! |

10-26-15 | Baltimore Ravens +9 v. Arizona Cardinals | 18-26 | Win | 100 | 11 h 35 m | Show | |
Baltimore at Arizona 8:30 ET Ravens (+) over Cardinals- The Baltimore Ravens (1-5)are off to their worst start in franchise history and it has been caused by a number of factors. To start with they are playing their five road game in seven contests and have had to travel cross-country four time already, and all five losses have been by six points or fewer. The Ravens lone win has come against Pittsburgh who the Cardinals lost to last Sunday. Arizona is led by Carson Palmer who is averaging 290 yards passing with 14 touchdown passes and only five interceptions while the Ravens are surrendering 186 yards per game through the air. Having lost their last two and five of six Baltimore will put forth a valiant effort enough to get the cash here. Take BALTIMORE! |

10-25-15 | Philadelphia Eagles +3 v. Carolina Panthers | 16-27 | Loss | -100 | 32 h 51 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Carolina 8:30 ET Eagles (+) over Panthers- Carolina manages to pull of a win at Seattle last Sunday as they scored two touchdowns in the final 3:55 to pull of the come-from-behind win. The Panthers are still unbeaten and are hosting the Eagles who have climbed back into the race in the East with two straight wins. Philadelphia's DeMarco Murray finally had a 100-yard rushing game last week. The Eagles defense is starting to show their strength by forcing 16 turnovers and has 14 sacks in the past two weeks holding the Giants to 247 total yards last week. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

10-25-15 | Oakland Raiders +4 v. San Diego Chargers | 37-29 | Win | 100 | 28 h 32 m | Show | |
Oakland at San Diego 4:05 ET Raiders (+) over Chargers- The Chargers manage to play well enough to lose close dropping their last two contests and are actually behind San Diego in the standings. Part of the problem is that they are allowing a league worst 5.4 per rushing attempt. Phillip Rivers may have played threw his winning window as Derek Carr emerges as the best quarterback in the West. Oakland is 15-3 ATS as a division road dog off a division loss. San Diego is just 4-13 ATS in their last 17 overall and 1-7 ATS in their last eight at home. Take OAKLAND! |
|||||||
10-25-15 | Pittsburgh Steelers v. Kansas City Chiefs -3 | 13-23 | Win | 100 | 25 h 44 m | Show | |
Pittsburgh at Kansas City 1:00 ET Chiefs (-) over Steelers- It looks like Pittsburgh has finally realized that Michael Vick can't cut it as quarterback as they are making the move to Landry Jones who will be making his first NFL start. Jones led the Steelers to a 25-13 victory over the Cardinals last Sunday passing for 168 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions after Vick had completed just three passes for minus-6 yards. The problem for Pittsburgh this week is that are up against a desperate clubs that has dropped five straight and are having huge difficulties getting the ball into the end zone. The good news for the Chiefs is that their defense has played well holding their last two opponents under 330 yards each and quarterback Alex Smith has gone three game with an interception. In a surprise at home the Chiefs scalp the Steelers. Take KANSAS CITY! |

10-25-15 | NY Jets v. New England Patriots -7.5 | 23-30 | Loss | -108 | 25 h 39 m | Show | |
New York Jets at New England 1:00 ET Patriots (-) over Jets- As a New Yorker I always noticed how the media over-reacts on a weekly basis in order to sensationalize issues that fit their mantra. With the New York Mets running away with the headlines the local tabloids are pumping up the imposter New York Jets. Granted they are probably better now then when their leader was Rex Ryan but they are note on the Patriots level. It appears Tom Brady is on a 'mission' this season and a huge win over this division rival is what he wants. This number seems rather large considering the Jets have the top-ranked defense. Look for the Patriots to be flawless on offense and post an easy win. Take NEW ENGLAND! |

10-25-15 | Atlanta Falcons v. Tennessee Titans +7 | 10-7 | Win | 100 | 25 h 34 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Tennessee 1:00 ET Titans (+) over Falcons- Now that the Falcons' bubble has burst as the fell from the ranks of the undefeated as the visit the Titans in Tennessee. Atlanta's offense is not quite the same when Julio Jones is dealing with injuries. The Titans have dropped four straight since their opening week win over Tampa Bay and have a question at quarterback as Marcus Mariota' availability is in question. Zach Mettenberger believes that he is more then capable of filling in and starting anytime anywhere on for any team on Sundays. Tennessee has yet to win at home and that all changes here. Take the TITANS! |

10-24-15 | Ohio State v. Rutgers +21.5 | 49-7 | Loss | -110 | 30 h 7 m | Show | |
Ohio State at Rutgers 8:00 ET Scarlet Knights (+) over Buckeyes- Well, the mover we have all been waiting for has finally happened as Ohio State coach Urban Meyer has named J.T. Barrett starting quarterback replacing Junior Cardale Jones. Barrett who finished fifth in the Heisman voting last season lost his job after breaking his ankle late in the season. Rutgers has had more problems off the field the most but has a very capable quarterback in Chris Laviano who leads the Big-Ten with a 69.3 completion percentage. Points are generous here and the Knights have enough to stay with these inflated odds. Take RUTGERS! |

10-24-15 | Utah v. USC -3 | 24-42 | Win | 100 | 30 h 12 m | Show | |
Utah at USC 7:30 ET Trojans (-) over Utes- I love this spot for the home Trojans (3-3) who were expected to contend for a Final-4 spot but have not lost their last two games. Last week the emotions of the week just wore them down in the final quarter and Notre Dame scored 17 unanswered points to post a 41-31 victory. Utah (6-0) enter this contest undefeated and their highest ranking in decades but must face the fact that the home team os 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. USC is 26-10 ATS in their last 36 games following a straight-up loss and I look for them to win here. Take SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA! |

Texas A&M at Mississippi 7:00 ET Rebels (-) over Aggies- The Aggies were exposed last week against Alabama when they had difficulty making first down, A few big plays (kick return and turnover return) made the game look much closer then it actually was. Mississippi meanwhile, take it's second loss since defeating Alabama including one to Memphis last week 37-24. Texas A&M enters this contest 0-9 ATS after their first loss when facing a winning opponent. Add that this is the first time A&M with be playing a true road game leaving the state of Texas. Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze is 20-1 straight-up and 16-3-2 ATS against an opponent off a loss. Take MISSISSIPPI! |

10-24-15 | Florida State v. Georgia Tech +7 | Top | 16-22 | Win | 100 | 30 h 49 m | Show |
Florida State at Georgia Tech 7:00 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Seminoles- You will hard pressed to find any school that has had a more disappoint run then the Yellow Jackets. After opening with wins against softies like Alcorn and Tulane they traveled to South Bend and were crushed by Notre Dame and they haven't recovered yet losing five straight both straight-up and ATS. Florida Sate as usual are an over-rated under-achiever that is just 6-15 ATS in their last 21 games overall. The best thing I can find about the Engineers is that are 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games while Florida State is 2-7 AST following a straight-up win. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

10-24-15 | Washington State v. Arizona -7 | 45-42 | Loss | -106 | 26 h 19 m | Show | |
Washington State at Arizona 7:00 ET Wildcats (-) over Cougars- After their opening loss to Portland State it looked like a doomed season for the Cougars but they have rebounded nicely going 4-1 both straight-up and ATS losing only at California 30-24. Arizona has recovered after back-to-back beating at the hands of UCLA and Stanford with the return of quarterback Anu Soloman as the Wildcats have amassed over 600 yards in offense in each of their last two games. Too much offense at home...take ARIZONA! |

10-24-15 | Missouri v. Vanderbilt +3 | 3-10 | Win | 100 | 27 h 46 m | Show | |
Missouri at Vanderbilt 4:00 ET Commodores (+) over Tigers- It looks like Missouri's (2-4) run in the SEC is starting to slow down as they have lost more regular-season conference games (3) then in the past two years combined. The Tigers' woes stem from an anemic offense that has scored just 10 points a game in their last five contests. They gave everything they had against Georgia last week but just couldn't muster what it take to win despite allowing the Bulldogs only 9-points. The Tigers may be 12-3 ATS in their last 15 road games but they are just 1-5 ATS in their last six on field-turf. Vanderbilt is 4-1 in their last five on field-turf and 10-4 ATS in their last 14 conference games. Take the COMMODORES! |

10-23-15 | Utah State v. San Diego State +5 | 14-48 | Win | 100 | 13 h 5 m | Show | |
Utah State at San Diego State 10:30 ET Aztecs (+) over Aggies- Last time out we had a 'cake-walk' win with the Aggies as they destroyed Boise State 52-26. In that contest the Aggies held the Broncos to a season low 333 yards on offense as they forced seven first half turnovers and eight for the game. San Diego State head coach Rocky Long knows how to prepare against a winning foe as the Aztecs are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 conference games. Take SAN DIEGO STATE! |

10-23-15 | Memphis v. Tulsa +10.5 | 66-42 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 49 m | Show | |
Memphis at Tulsa 8:00 ET Golden Hurricane (+) over Tigers- Memphis is off their biggest win in years over Mississippi 37-24 topping the #12 team in the country. The Tigers have now won 13 straight contests and as they are 4th in the nation in points per game at 46. Tulsa at 2-4 has played better then their record indicates and will be 'sky-high' for this conference rival. The Golden Hurricane can most the ball effectively as they average 354.5 yards passing and 550.5 total yards per games. This one should end up closer then most believe. Take TULSA! |
|||||||
10-22-15 | California v. UCLA -3 | 24-40 | Win | 100 | 11 h 53 m | Show | |
California at UCLA 9:00 ET Bruins (-) over Golden Bears- If games were won on match-ups the Bruins would have little chance of winning here as California is scoring 40.2 points per game and UCLA has struggled since losing three defensive starters. But, this is one of the rare cases where an un-ranked team UCLA is favored over a ranked team#20 California. UCLA has dropped their last two contests but have had an extra week to prepare for this PAC-12 encounter and the Bears have also been rested for two weeks and they are off a loss at Utah where Jared Goff threw a career high five interceptions. UCLA has defeated Cal the last two times as hosts by a combined 44 points and I see them getting 'ready' to win here again. Take UCLA! |

10-22-15 | Seattle Seahawks -6.5 v. San Francisco 49ers | 20-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 32 m | Show | |
Seattle at San Francisco 8:30 ET 49ers (+) over Seahawks- The Seahawks have appeared as just a shell of themselves this season as their 2-4 record would indicate while losing three double-digit leads in the final quarter. Pete Carroll says that Seattle should be 6-0 right now but poor coaching decision have been a factor in every late loss. The Seahawks Russell Wilson has been sacked more times then any other quarterback while imposter Colin Kaepernick (1-5 vs. Seattle) was throwing for 340 yards last week and two touchdowns but the Niners are last in pass defense allowing 306 yards per game. Too much to overcome, even at home. Take SEATTLE! |

10-22-15 | Georgia Southern +7 v. Appalachian State | 13-31 | Loss | -125 | 9 h 19 m | Show | |
Georgia Southern at Appalachia State 7:30 ET Eagles (+) over Mountaineers- Appalachian State has been the fore-running to win the Sun Belt Conference title even though Georgia Southern is 11-0 since joining the conference last season. Both clubs have prolific offenses as the Mountaineers average 488 yards per game while Souther is at 465 per contest. Even though the home team has won the last three but the Eagles still hold a 15-13-1 lifetime series lead. Take GEORGIA SOUTHERN! |

10-19-15 | NY Giants v. Philadelphia Eagles -4.5 | 7-27 | Win | 100 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
New York Giants at Philadelphia 8:30 ET Eagles (-) over Giants- Now is the time for the Philadelphia Eagles to show their stuff and they catch the Giants at the right time. New York's Odell Beckham Jr. is nursing a pulled hamstring and that is good news for the Philadelphia as there is a dramatic difference in New York's offense without him. Last season the Giants 3-2 before Beckham was injured and the Eagles shut them out 27-0 as they promptly lost seven straight until his return. After a slow start the Eagles are flying high off their 39-10 win over New Orleans and look for an easy win. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

New England at Indianapolis 8:30 ET Colts (+) over Patriots- I know the history between these two has not be good to Indianapolis as New England is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 meetings in Indianapolis. With the return of Andrew Luck the Colts can return to old form as they are 21-8-1 in their last 30 home games and when looked upon the underdog is 14-6-2 in the last 22 meetings. Former Colts' running back Ahmad Bradshaw has been added to the rooster and will help spell Frank Gore. Take the COLTS! |

10-18-15 | Denver Broncos v. Cleveland Browns +5 | Top | 26-23 | Win | 100 | 26 h 37 m | Show |
Denver at Cleveland 1:00 ET Browns (+) over Broncos- The Broncos are a perfect 5-0 while managing to score less then two touchdowns per contest as their defense has taken over during Peyton Manning's recession. They lead the league with 22 sacks, 14 turnovers and fewest yards allowed (278) per game while Manning has only six TD passes to go with his seven interceptions. Cleveland has found a passing game of their own as Josh McCown threw for a club-record 457 yards in last weeks 33-30 win over Baltimore. The Browns are actually outscoring the Broncos and have a renewed confidence. Take CLEVELAND! |

10-18-15 | Cincinnati Bengals v. Buffalo Bills +3.5 | Top | 34-21 | Loss | -115 | 26 h 32 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Buffalo 1:00 ET Bills (+) over Bengals- The Bengals are walking in the clouds after their 17-point fourth quarter comeback win over the Seahawks and are bouncing into Buffalo where the Bills are really not sure who will under center. We know Andy Dalton will start for Cincinnati and he has had three consecutive 300-yard passing games but he will find the going t bit tougher against the Bills defense. Buffalo is 10-2 straight-up and ATS in the last 12 meetings in this series and the Bills are 5-0 ATS at home against the AFC North. Take BUFFALO! |

10-18-15 | Washington Redskins +7 v. NY Jets | 20-34 | Loss | -115 | 25 h 29 m | Show | |
Washington at New York Jets 1:00 ET Redskins (+) over Jets- The Jets might get caught looking ahead here as they travel to New England next week to face their arch-rival Patriots. Both the Redskins and Jets have played stellar defense as New York is number 1 in scoring defense and 2nd only to Denver in total defense. Washington meanwhile it was the Skins #12 rushing defense that let them in the final moments last week in their last at Atlanta. The Jets are off a win in London against Division rival Miami and are just 3-14 ATS at home in the week before meetings the Patriots and teams off wins in London are 1-7 ATS at home in their next game. Take WASHINGTON! |

10-18-15 | Arizona Cardinals v. Pittsburgh Steelers +4 | 13-25 | Win | 100 | 25 h 24 m | Show | |
Arizona at Pittsburgh 1:00 ET Steelers (+) over Cardinals- The Pittsburgh Steelers ran the ball on first down the first 12 possessions before they threw a pass behind the line of scrimmage in their victory over San Diego last Monday night while Arizona was taking advantage of six Lions turnovers in Detroit. When Pittsburgh won the game Michael Vick wasn't under center as he was split out as a wide receiver as the Steelers used a direct snap to Le'Veon Bell who scored the winning touchdown. Bell has averaged 157 yards per game from scrimmage and will be they key factor once again. Take PITTSBURGH! |

10-17-15 | Arizona State +7 v. Utah | 18-34 | Loss | -130 | 31 h 55 m | Show | |
Arizona State at Utah 10:00 ET Sun Devils (+) over Utes- Utah is the only unbeaten team left in the PAC-12 as it hosts Arizona State who has beaten them 10 straight times. The Utes were out-gained once again last week but took advantage of sox interception to post a non-cover win over California. The Sun Devils are 20-6 lifetime against the Utes and are off two straight wins as quarterback Mike Bercovici has passed for 1,604 yards and a 14-to-4 touchdown-to-interception ratio of 14-4. Devils have enough. Take ARIZONA STATE! |

10-17-15 | Arizona v. Colorado +8 | 38-31 | Win | 100 | 29 h 17 m | Show | |
Arizona at Colorado 9:00 ET Buffaloes (+) over Wildcats- The Arizona Wildcats are two different teams when Las Vegas product Anu Solomon is playing or not. When he was missing the Wildcats were blowout but UCLA and Stanford two pretty good teams and when he returned Arizona ran for 368 yards in their rout of Oregon State. Colorado is 3-3 on the season but is off four straight non-cover. Last two defeats in PAC-12 play. The Wildcats have homecoming next week and might get caught thinking of seeing family and girl friends. Take COLORADO! |

Penn State at Ohio State 8:00 ET Buckeyes (-) over Nittany Lions- Since their opening win over Virginia Tech when they were aided by an injured Hokies quarterback Ohio State has gone 0-5 ATS but are 6-0 straight-up and still ranked #1. In their defense they have been favored by an average of 33 points and have a win margin of almost 20 points per game. Penn State is 5-1 and has played all six games in Pennsylvania and the last five at home as this will be their first real road game. Teams is this position do not fare well as they are 11-22 ATS here. Lay it...take OHIO STATE! |

10-17-15 | USC +7 v. Notre Dame | Top | 31-41 | Loss | -120 | 29 h 43 m | Show |
Southern California at Notre Dame 7:30 ET Trojans (+) over Fighting Irish- I understand that the Irish faithful have sent case of Bourbon is the USC coaching staff which is cool because they will have reason to celebrate Saturday night after their outright victory. Cuddy Sark was given his walking papers as he should have been seven weeks ago after his drunkin' rant during the 'Salute to Troy' night in August. USC is an amazing 13-0 ATS as road dogs after a straight-up loss and the Irish are just 3-10 straight-up in the last 13 meetings and 1-6 ATS as favorites of less then 14 points. Take the TROJANS! |

10-17-15 | Missouri v. Georgia -14.5 | 6-9 | Loss | -102 | 28 h 53 m | Show | |
Missouri at Georgia 7:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Tigers- Georgia who will be without All-American running back Nick Chubb has dropped two straight after blowing a 24-3 lead (Vegas Insider Winner) at Tennessee. The Bulldogs will look to recover during Homecoming week as they have done the last eight times winning them all. Missouri struggled against Florida last week nit converting a third down until their final drive in the fourth quarter as they sorely missed their starting quarterback. Chubb's replacement Sony Michel ran for 145 yards last week against the Volunteers and lead the Bulldogs offense. Take GEORGIA! |

10-17-15 | Florida +7.5 v. LSU | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 28 h 57 m | Show | |
Florida at LSU 7:00 ET Gators (+) over Tigers- Undefeated Florida has to be the most 'under-rated' team in college football although they are ranked #11 as they invade Baton Rouge to face #6 LSU who has the Heisman favorite in Leonard Fournette. He will be facing his first true test as the Gators allow just 101 yards per contest this season. The Tigers is SEC action are just 19-36-1 in back-to-back home games and and Les Miles is 0-6 against opponents with a winning of .800 or better. Florida can fare well with Treon Harris at quarterback as he was started last season. Take FLORIDA! |

10-17-15 | Michigan State v. Michigan -7 | 27-23 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 26 m | Show | |
Michigan State at Michigan 3:30 ET Wolverines (-) over Spartans- No one I know (Vegas Wise Guys) can believe the 'price' of this contest. There was a time when #4 ranked Michigan State is 6-0 straight up (0-6 ATS) was ranked #2 at one time. Michigan has moved up the charts rapidly as they have shut-out three straight foes two of which were ranked (BYU and Northwestern) and are 5-1 themselves with their only loss to #7 Utah opening night. The Spartans are 19-1 straight-up in their last 20 conference games losing only to Ohio State and yet they are getting a touchdown here. Vegas likes the Wolverines and so will I. Take MICHIGAN! |

Alabama at Texas A&M 3:30 Aggies (+) over Crimson Tide- Texas A&M is undefeated at 5-0 and remembers all to well the 59-0 thrashing they took last season at the hands of the Crimson Tide. 'Bama's defense will be up against a much faster paced offense this week as the Aggies love to push the ball up the field with their no-huddle offense. A&M has had two weeks to get ready and they will have the aid of their famous '12th man.' Take TEXAS A&M! |
|||||||
10-17-15 | Syracuse v. Virginia -7 | 38-44 | Loss | -100 | 24 h 9 m | Show | |
Syracuse at Virginia 3:30 ET Cavaliers (-) over Syracuse- Now, let me get this straight 1-4 Virginia is a touchdown favorite over 3-2 Syracuse. Somebody must know something somewhere as I have seen Virginia play and I can tell you that they are not very good and poorly coached. Head coach Mike London has only one win over William and Mary and (he says it should count as two) that was just by six as a 22-point favorite. The Orange have been out-gained four times this season and I just don't believe they will be ready here. Take VIRGINIA! |

Boise State at Utah State 9:00 ET Aggies (+) over Broncos- Boise State is on a tear having won their last four by an average 45-points per contest under freshman quarterback Brett Rypien (Mark's nephew). He Broncos ave won 12 straight going 10-1-1 ATS in this series including the last 10 by an average 31 and they defeated the Aggies 50-19 at home last year. Utah State is 6-1 ATS in their last seven at home and are 5-1 ATS at home when taking 6+ points. Take UTAH STATE! |

Cincinnati at BYU 8:00 ET Bearcats (+) over Cougars- This is the first meeting of these two schools and Cincinnati has had 15 days off while BYU is playing their third of four straight home games as they face mighty Wagner next week. Tommy Tuberville always seem to have his teams ready after rest and on the road where he is 23-9 ATS. The Cougars are just 1-6 ATS against rested opponents and 2-14 ATS off back-to-back home games and 1-13 off ATS wins. Take BEARCATS! |

10-15-15 | UCLA +7 v. Stanford | 35-56 | Loss | -115 | 26 h 40 m | Show | |
UCLA at Stanford 10:30 ET Bruins (+) over Cardinal- Injuries are a big part of football and the Bruins must find a way to over-come the loss of three defensive starters against one of the best running teams in the PAC-12 who are led by Christian McCaffrey who is second nationally in all-purpose yards with 230 per game. Both teams are off a bye week and the Cardinal has won the past seven meetings but UCLA is 5-0 following a bye week under Jim Mora. The Bruins were pounded by Arizona State (Vegas Insider Best Bet (6-0) winner) last time out and will be ready for Stanford. Take BRUINS! |

10-15-15 | Atlanta Falcons v. New Orleans Saints +3.5 | Top | 21-31 | Win | 115 | 32 h 22 m | Show |
Atlanta at New Orleans 8:30 Saints (+) over Falcons- The undefeated Atlanta Falcons (5-0) enter the Super Dome with some gaudy trends on their side of the ledger. First, they are 23-7 ATS in New Orleans in their last 30 trips to the Crescent City and the Saints are just 1-6 ATS both on Thursday's and their last seven at home. The difference here is that this time around the home team will be ab underdog. This is evidenced by the fact that Drew Brees is 7-2 in his last nine home starts against the Falcons. This is a great spot for the home club. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
10-12-15 | Pittsburgh Steelers +4 v. San Diego Chargers | Top | 24-20 | Win | 100 | 10 h 21 m | Show |
Pittsburgh at San Diego 8:30 ET Steelers (+) over Chargers- A contrast of quarterbacking style could not be more evident then what we will witness tonight in San Diego. The Chargers will have your classic 'pocket' passer in Phillip Rivers who leads the league in just four games with 1,248 yards passing as he threw for 358 yards last week against the Browns. Michael Vick who threw for only 124 yards while replacing Ben Roethlisberger against the Ravens a week ago Thursday should feel more comfortable with Pittsburgh offense as he has had more time (remembering that he signed late during the pre-season) to get a 'feel' for his teammates. This time Pittsburgh coming up big. Take the STEELERS! |
|||||||
10-11-15 | San Francisco 49ers +7 v. NY Giants | 27-30 | Win | 100 | 30 h 11 m | Show | |
San Francisco at New York Giants 8:30 ET 49ers (+) over Giants- No, I'm not joking about this one! The Giants may be tied for the division lead at 2-2 but their opponents have out-gained them in all four contest. Last week it was 17 Buffalo penalties that brought back two touchdowns that aided the G-men. Here is a Sunday night trend that will make you think, home favorites on Sunday nights off back-to-back wins are 10-22 ATS in the last 32. We understand that this Kaepernick led offense leaves much to be desired but the Niners will be able to run the ball here and keep it closer then most think. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

10-11-15 | Denver Broncos v. Oakland Raiders +5.5 | 16-10 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 15 m | Show | |
Denver at Oakland 4:25 ET Raiders (+) over Broncos- The surprising thing about the broncos being undefeated at this time is that they have done it with defense as they ranked first in total defense (275.5 yards per game) and second in points allowed with 17.2. The broncos have won the last seven in this series but for the first time in years the Raiders have a passing game. Derek Carr is 70-of-111 the past three contests for 861 yards and seven touchdowns. Look for this one to come down to the final gun as the points could becomes factor. Take OAKLAND! |

10-11-15 | New England Patriots v. Dallas Cowboys +10 | 30-6 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 11 m | Show | |
New England at Dallas 4:25 ET Cowboys (+) over Patriots- The 'Brady Bunch' come into Dallas undefeated as the Cowboys are reeling since losing Tony Romo. Part of the problem for this group is that their defense hasn't been able to get the field allowing their last two opponents their season high in yards gained. The fact that Brandon Weeden is 0-10 ATS in his last 10 NFL starts doesn't lend much confidence to their backers. In Dallas this won't be that easy for the Patriots. Take the COWBOYS! |

10-11-15 | Arizona Cardinals v. Detroit Lions +3 | 42-17 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 58 m | Show | |
Arizona at Detroit 4:05 ET Lions (+) over Cardinals- Detroit is the last of the NFL winless clubs as they were robbed last Monday in Seattle and most might think it would suck the 'life' out of this club but it hasn't. The Lions proved to themselves that they can play with the Conference's best and the Cardinals have always struggled in Detroit where they are 0-4 ATS in their last four meetings. We all are aware how well Arizona has played behind Carson Palmer but his 'mojo' was broken last week in their home loss to the Rams. Take DETROIT! |

10-11-15 | Buffalo Bills v. Tennessee Titans +3 | 14-13 | Win | 100 | 23 h 10 m | Show | |
Buffalo at Tennessee 1:00 ET Titans (+) over Bills- The Bills jumped out and before a fan favorite early but have alternated wins and losses since their opening week win over the Colts. This team reflects the personality of its coach Rex Ryan as they committed 17 penalties last week in a 14-point home loss to the Giants. Buffalo has been an imposter for a while a as they are 6-13 ATS as road favorites off a loss and Tennessee is off a bye week and are 14-6 straight-up in their last 20 against Buffalo. Ryan as a head coach is 2-10 straight-up and 1-11 ATS in his last 12 off a straight-up loss. Take TENNESSEE! |

10-11-15 | Seattle Seahawks +3 v. Cincinnati Bengals | 24-27 | Push | 0 | 23 h 2 m | Show | |
Seattle at Cincinnati 1:00 ET Seahawks (+) over Bengals- Seattle is now 2-2 after opening the season with two straight road losses and were lucky to win Monday Night against Detroit. Cincinnati has been dominate and is 4-0 both straight-up and ATS while the Seahawks are 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall. The trends don't give Seattle much of a chance as Super Bowl teams are 5-15 straight-up and 7-13 ATS against undefeated foes while Cincinnati is 12-2-1 SU and 10-3-2 ATS in battles against the NFC. Still, this line is short and the Seahawks know how to win. Take SEATTLE! |

10-11-15 | Washington Redskins +7.5 v. Atlanta Falcons | 19-25 | Win | 100 | 23 h 58 m | Show | |
Washington at Atlanta 1:00 ET Redskins (+) over Falcons- Are you 'sold' on the Falcons? I understand they are 4-0 SU and ATS despite surrendering season high yardage to three of their four opponents. Trends for Washington are not good as they are 2-12 ATS off straight-up wins but the trends aren't much better for Atlanta as they are 2-14 ATS at home off back-to-back wins. New coach Dan Quinn won't stay undefeated and the Falcons will struggled against the little respected Redskins. Take WASHINGTON! |

10-10-15 | California +8 v. Utah | 24-30 | Win | 100 | 33 h 9 m | Show | |
California at Utah 10:00 ET Golden Bears (+) over Utes- Two unbeaten Top-25 teams clash in Utah where the #7 ranked Utes (4-0, 1-0) will host #22 California (5-0, 2-0). Utah finally gained national attention after touting Oregon 62-20 while the Golden Bears has the PAC-12 leading passer in Jared Goff who has 15 touchdown passes and 1,630 passing yards. The Cal defense can't be over looked as the have forced 18 turnovers and have recorded 18 sacks. Utah has had two weeks to pat themselves on the back after crushing the Ducks they will get a dose of reality here. Take CALIFORNIA! |

Michigan State at Rutgers 8:00 ET Scarlet Knights (+) over Spartans- Rutgers finally won one as chargers against their wide receiver have been dropped as seven other players were kicked out of school for things like robbery, assault home invasion and possession of weapons (guns) during a kidnapping among other things. The Spartans ran out to a 21-0 half time lead against lowly Purdue and then had to hang-on for a 24-21 win as they took their foot off the gas. Sometimes, it is difficult to just turn it back on when you need it after turning the engine off. This is a huge game for the state of New Jersey and the Scarlet Knights will be ready. Take RUTGERS! |

10-10-15 | Florida v. Missouri +4.5 | 21-3 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 30 m | Show | |
Florida at Missouri 7:30 ET Tigers (+) over Gators- We had Florida as a 'key' release last week as they malled Mississippi 38-10 while the Tigers were defeating South Carolina 24-10. Missouri's starting quarterback Maty Mauk will remain suspended as his replacement Drew Lock was outstanding last week completing 21-of-28 for 2 TD's against the Gamecocks. The two time defensing SEC East Champs are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 at home and Florida is off two straight huge home wins. Gators get 'swamped' here. Take MISSOURI! |

Chip's Big-12 Heavy Hitter TCU at Kansas State 7:30 ET Wildcats (+) over Horned Frogs- Texas Christian had last week 'off' as they annihilated Texas 50-7 as they rolled up 604 yards from scrimmage while Kansas State (3-1) suffered their first loss to Oklahoma State 36-34. The Wildcats hang their hats on their defense, particularity at home where they allow just 17.2 points per contest. Kansas State is one of the best 'covers' in college football as they are 35-15-1 70% ATS in the past five seasons as they are 4-0 ATS versus TCU in the last four and 9-1 ATS against them in the last 10 meetings.

10-10-15 | Arkansas +16 v. Alabama | 14-27 | Win | 100 | 30 h 42 m | Show | |
Chip's Vegas Steam Winner Arkansas at Alabama 7:00 ET Razorbacks (+) over Crimson Tide- We all saw how Alabama just destroyed Georgia last week and they are proud of their performance to the point that even coach Nick Saban was taking shots at the media after the contest for doubting his club. Arkansas is much better then their record indicates as they have held four of their five opponents to their season low in yards and the fifth club to their 2nd lowest output. Off their huge road win the Tide are primed to come back to the pack. Arkansas has run for 507 yards against two SEC opponents and can keep this one close. Take the RAZORBACKS! |

10-10-15 | Georgia v. Tennessee +3.5 | Top | 31-38 | Win | 100 | 27 h 1 m | Show |
Georgia at Tennessee 3:30 ET Volunteers (+) over Bulldogs- I refer to this selection as my 'Bang-Bang' theory as the Bulldogs had their dreams destroyed by Alabama last week in Athens and will be despondent while preparing for Tennessee with the realization that they really are not that good. This factor is especially effective with Georgia as Mark Richt is 0-6 ATS in SEC play after a conference loss. Tennessee who is 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings has had two weeks to recover from their loss to Florida where they let a 13-point 4th quarter lead fade away. This time the Volunteers will be ready and close the deal. Take TENNESSEE! |

10-10-15 | Georgia Tech +7.5 v. Clemson | 24-43 | Loss | -125 | 27 h 56 m | Show | |
Georgia Tech at Clemson 3:30 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Tigers- Three weeks ago we posted Notre Dame as our 'Vegas Insider' Best Bet (5-0) against undefeated Georgia Tech and we didn't mean to ruin their season completely but they have now dropped three straight Including blowing14-point leads twice at home last week in their loss to North Carolina. Clemson meanwhile is coming off their 'Super Bowl' with a win over Notre Dame as head coach Dabo celebrated with his players. The Engineers who are 0-2 in conference play have a 51-27 -2 series edge and will get the money here. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

10-09-15 | NC State +2 v. Virginia Tech | 13-28 | Loss | -107 | 34 h 30 m | Show | |
N.C. State at Virginia Tech 8:00 ET Wolfpack (+) over Hokies- Virginia Tech may get their starting quarterback Michael Brewer back since getting his collarbone broken against Ohio State in the opener. He has been cleared to practice this week and will be a game-time decision. Either way the Hokies will be up against a defense that has 12 take-aways and a quarterback that has no interceptions. N.C State quarterback Jacoby Brissett is completing 72.3 percent of his passes and is supported by the nation's third ranked defense allowing just a total of 225.8 yards per contest. Take the WOLFPACK! |

10-08-15 | Indianapolis Colts v. Houston Texans | Top | 27-20 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 10 m | Show |
Indianapolis at Houston 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Colts- Take about 'Hard Knocks' the Houston Texans haven't hit anyone hard enough to cause a bruise this season. Houston comes home to NGR Stadium 1-3 with their lone victory over lowly Tampa Bay. Indianapolis (2-2) has looked terrible this season with or without Andrew Luck but believe it or not they are on top in the AFC South in what may be the league weakest division in the NFL. Why are the Colts who have won five straight over the Texans and has 15 straight wins against division opponents only a 1-point favorite here. The reason is that Houston is coming to play tonight. Take the TEXANS! |

10-05-15 | Detroit Lions +10 v. Seattle Seahawks | 10-13 | Win | 100 | 11 h 53 m | Show | |
Detroit at Seattle 8:30 ET Lions (+) over Seahawks- The 0-3 Detroit Lions jumped out to a 21-3 first-half lead in their season opener at San Diego and it has been down hill ever since. The loss of Ndamukong Suh certainly hurt the defense but the offense has struggled as well as Mathew Stafford continues to lose against teams with a winning record going just 3-32 straight-up. Seattle shoutout the Bears last week as Chicago was forced to punt on every possession. The two most current trends give the Lions life as they are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games following a double-digit loss and the Seahawks are 1-4 ATS in their last five contests. With generous points...take DETROIT! |

10-04-15 | Green Bay Packers v. San Francisco 49ers +9 | Top | 17-3 | Loss | -115 | 26 h 45 m | Show |
Green Bay at San Francisco 4:25 ET 49ers (+) over Packers- How bad are the 49ers...don't answer that! They are being out-scored by opponents more then doubled. Green Bay meanwhile is just steamrolling the league with wins over Chicago, Seattle and Kansas City. San Francisco returns home after two horrific games on the road including a 47-7 pasting at Arizona last week. NFL home dogs off losses of 40-points or more are 10-2-1 ATS with six straight up wins. Now, I really don't expect a straight-up win but Green Bay is just 1-4-1 ATS the last six trips to San Francisco and they are 3-8 ATS against teams with a losing record. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

10-04-15 | St Louis Rams +7.5 v. Arizona Cardinals | 24-22 | Win | 100 | 26 h 42 m | Show | |
St. Louis at Arizona 4:25 ET Rams (+) over Cardinals- The Arizona Cardinals have been just about unbeatable the past two season with Carson Palmer at the helm and they host the punchless St. Louis Rams late Sunday afternoon. While the Cardinals are scoring 42 points a game the Rams are at 16.7 and have absolutely no run game to speak of. Arizona has won 20 of their last 27 overall and is 19-7 ATS against a team with a losing record. But, professional team rally when things appearance to be at their worse and it's time for St. Louis is rally. Take the RAMS! |

10-04-15 | Houston Texans +6 v. Atlanta Falcons | 21-48 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 53 m | Show | |
Houston at Atlanta 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Falcons- The Atlanta Falcons come home 3-0 (3-0 ATS) after coming back from two 14-point twice defeating the Cowboys 39-28. The Texans posted their first win of the season and are walking into a trend they should love. Atlanta is one of the worst home teams in NFL history especially when they have been put in certain spots. First they are 1-14 ATS at home after back-to-back straight-up and ATS wins and they are an unbelievable 0-17-1 ATS at home after three straight ATS wins. True the Texans are having difficulty at the QB position but these number are too much for the Falcons to overcome. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
10-04-15 | Carolina Panthers v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers +3.5 | Top | 37-23 | Loss | -115 | 23 h 46 m | Show |
Carolina at Tampa Bay 1:00 ET Buccaneers (+) over Panthers- Wow, does this line look short to me! Here are the 3-0 Panthers entering Tampa Bay where the 1-2 Bucs who are averaging just 16 points per contest with a rookie quarterback are hosts. Tampa has lost four straight in this series and Carolina is 18-8-1 ATS against a team with a losing record. Tampa is just 15-36-1 ATS in their last 52 home games but are 6-0 ATS in their last six games following an ATS loss. The 'number' is just too low and gives the Bucs a chance to win. Take TAMPA BAY! |
|||||||
10-04-15 | Oakland Raiders v. Chicago Bears +3.5 | 20-22 | Win | 100 | 23 h 40 m | Show | |
Oakland at Chicago 1:00 ET Bears (+) over Raiders- How about Da Bears! They punted ALL nine possessions last week against Seattle and now are an underdog at home to the Raiders who won back-to-back games for the first time since 2011. The Raiders are just 1-5 ATS as road favorites in their last six tries and the Bears are 8-2 ATS in this series including 4-0 ATS at home. Oakland is 3-15 straight-up on the road (including their win over the Browns) and the Bears are 12-1 ATS at home vs. AFC off back-to-back losses. Take CHICAGO! |
|||||||
10-04-15 | Kansas City Chiefs +4 v. Cincinnati Bengals | 21-36 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 35 m | Show | |
Kansas City at Cincinnati 1:00 ET Chiefs (+) over Bengals- Golly do the Bengals look good in this spot or what. Just a 4-point favorite for openers and a glittery 3-0 record returning home. The Bengals are 6-1-1 in their last eight games against a team with a losing record and they are facing a team that is 4-11 ATSA in their last 15 games after playing a Sunday or Monday night. But, Kansas City is 9-4 in their last 14 games against the AFC and are 7-3 ATS after allowing 350 or more yards. I'm looking for the Chiefs to bounce back here after two straight losses. Take Kansas City! |
|||||||
10-04-15 | NY Jets v. Miami Dolphins +2 | 27-14 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 14 m | Show | |
New York Jets vs Miami 9:30 ET Dolphins (+) over Jets- This is one home game the Miami will miss out on and the New Yorkers (the fans) miss a trip to Florida which they make in huge chunks. The Jets were grounded by the high-flying Eagles last week and now go to London after a pounding by Buffalo. I expect the disappointing Dolphins to handle the trip better and play the better. Miami is in need of a breakout game and no better spot then here. Take the DOLPHINS! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Oregon v. Colorado +8 | 41-24 | Loss | -110 | 34 h 58 m | Show | |
Oregon at Colorado 10:00 ET Buffaloes (+) over Ducks- Oregon was beaten in every facet of the game last week as Utah crushed the Ducks 62-20. Colorado has won three straight but has lost 11 straight Pac-12 games but are playing with more confidence this year. Oregon will most likely be without quarterback Vernon Adams who was ineffective last week and has an injured right index finger. Colorado junior QB Sefo Liufau has thrown for 771 yards with four TD's and only one interception. It a surprise take...COLORADO! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Notre Dame +2 v. Clemson | 22-24 | Push | 0 | 31 h 50 m | Show | |
Notre Dame at Clemson 8:00 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Tigers- I have been on the right side of the Notre Dame games three times and I believe that I have the correct side once again. The Fighting Irish as we are all aware are playing through an incredible amount of injuries and have manged to be 4-0. Clemson (3-0) has won 28 of 30 at home straight-up and at a pick-em this seem to have a decided advantage. The problem for the Tigers is that haven't really faced any real competition as they have beaten Wofford, Appalachia State and a weak Louisville club. Both teams play great defense but the Irish have played against better opposition. Take NOTRE DAME! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Arizona State +14 v. UCLA | Top | 38-23 | Win | 100 | 33 h 1 m | Show |
Arizona State at UCLA 7:30 ET Sun Devils (+) Bruins- Can Arizona State look any worse then they did by the thrashing at the hands of Southern California 42-14 and are now 0-4 against the points this season. The Devils trailed 35-0 at the half and the Trojans just coasted the entire second half to keep the rout down. Meanwhile, UCLA was destroying Arizona 56-30 in a game that wasn't even that close. The final there might be a little misleading as the Bruins were just a plus 29 yards but turnovers were the difference. The Sun Devils look to avenge their worst loss of the season last year as the Bruins won big 62-27. UCLA is 0-4-1 ATS as home favorites and just 2-8 at home against teams seeking conference revenge. Take ARIZONA STATE! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Ole Miss v. Florida +7.5 | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 32 h 6 m | Show | |
Mississippi at Florida 7:00 ET Gators (+) over Rebels- Mississippi had their expected letdown after defeating Alabama as they sept-walked their way through their 27-16 win over Vanderbilt last week. Ole Miss has is 5-0 ATS in their last five against Florida but they were a double-digit underdog in all of those contests and now they are a touchdown or more favorite. The Rebels travel into the swamp for their first SEC contest as a road favorite and history is not on their side as they have lost their four outright and are 0-4 ATS in that spot. The Gators have shown they know how to win with their 13-point comeback last week against Tennessee. Take FLORIDA! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Vanderbilt v. Middle Tennessee State -2.5 | 17-13 | Loss | -110 | 29 h 28 m | Show | |
Vanderbilt at Middle Tennessee 7:00 ET Blue Raiders over Commodores- This is the 'biggest' game on Middle Tennessee's slate as they play their in-state rival. Vanderbilt is off a valiant effort against Mississippi last week but just wore down in the second half. After facing the Rebels the Commodores will have difficulties getting 'ready' for this non-conference encounter while the Blue Raiders will be flying high. A big game in Murfreesboro, Tennessee and it's the Raiders day. Take MIDDLE TENNESSEE! |
|||||||
10-03-15 | Texas Tech v. Baylor -17 | 35-63 | Win | 100 | 28 h 29 m | Show | |
Baylor vs Texas Tech 3:30 ET Bears (-) over red Raiders- The drop-off in emotion for Texas Tech will be tremendous and just too much to over-come here. Baylor leads the NCAA in yards per game (767) will an incredible balance off 380 yards rushing and 383 yards passing and play against a team that surrendered 55 points last week. Texas Tech averages 54 points per contest but also gives up 36 points per game. The all-time series is even at 36-36-1 but the Bears rout in Arlington. Take BAYLOR! |

10-03-15 | Michigan v. Maryland +15 | 28-0 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 44 m | Show | |
Michigan at Maryland 8:00 ET Terrapins (+) over Wolverines- Michigan has now won three straight and are coming out a 31-0 whitewash of BYU but now must take to the road where they are 0-1 this season and 2-5 ATS in their last seven contests. Maryland is 2-2 but has looked terrible losing to Bowling Green and West Virginia where they were out-gained by an average of 309 yards. The Terrapins have shown the ability to bounce back after a loss going 7-1 ATS. Certainly not a top play but worth a wager. Take MARYLAND! |
