10-15-23 | 49ers v. Browns +10 | 17-19 | Win | 100 | 13 h 1 m | Show | |
San Francisco at Cleveland 1:00 ET Browns (+) over 49ers- This is getting silly...I know the Niners have been impressive and that Cleveland is down a man at quarterback, but these are still professionals and they all have to man-up when the going gets tough. Yes, Purdy is 10-0 and undefeated as an NFL regular season starter and they just destroyed the impostor Cowboys but, things change on a dime in the NFL. Deshaun Watson is out and replacement Dorian Thompson-Robinson admittedly is terrible which will force the Browns to use their strong running game and a defense that is allowing the fewest yards per game at 196.8. Take CLEVELAND! |

10-15-23 | Panthers +14.5 v. Dolphins | 21-42 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 51 m | Show | |
Carolina at Miami 1:00 ET Panthers (+) over Dolphins- This is NOT a misprint! Yes, Miami (4-1) is off to their best start in 20 years and Carolina (0-5) to their worst start ever and are the only NFL team with a victory. A pair of former Alabama QB’s will be leading the way with Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa’s who was a mentor to Bryce Young and has 1,614 yards passing. Young has been abused as most rookie quarterbacks are on a huge leaning curve. Dolphin’s will be without explosive running back De’Von Achane and five other starts are either out or questionable. Take CAROLINA! |

10-14-23 | NC State +3.5 v. Duke | Top | 3-24 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 33 m | Show |
NC State at Duke 8:00 ET Wolfpack (+) over Blue Devils- After the way Duke blew the Notre Dame game and cover and I have a sour taste in my month when thinking of this Blue Devil squad. NC State brought in former Virginia QB graduate transfer Brennan Armstrong and he wasn’t able to do the job with the Cavaliers and has been ever worse with the Wolfpack and has been replace by MJ Morris. Duke has been resting since that debacle two weeks ago and may have trouble getting focused. Take NC STATE! |

10-14-23 | Miami-FL +3 v. North Carolina | Top | 31-41 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 38 m | Show |
Miami-Fl at North Carolina 7:30 ET Hurricanes (+) over Tar Heels- How about those Hurricanes! Coming back from a decade of misery Miami-FL was on track to be considered one of the NCAA Finalist and a poor coaching decision and a defensive breakdown squandered their opportunity to remain a contender. North Carolina has one of the and expect Drake Maye to be a first round draft pick but, he will be up against an angry bunch who look to atone for their grave error. Miami led 20-17 and could have knelt on the ball to end the game on a third-and-10 play, as there was just 33 seconds left and the Yellow Jackets had no timeouts remaining, but instead the Hurricanes ran the ball and fumbled it. Moments later, Georgia Tech's Haynes King tossed the game-winning touchdown pass. North Carolina is 13-11 against Miami and has won four straight games in the series. The Hurricanes haven't won in Chapel Hill since 2017. That all changes here. Take MIAMI-FL! |

10-14-23 | Missouri +2.5 v. Kentucky | Top | 38-21 | Win | 100 | 19 h 58 m | Show |
Missouri at Kentucky 7:30 ET Tigers (+) over Wildcats- Two weeks ago Kentucky took down Florida as our SEC Power Play winner and last week we posted Georgia (-14.5) a 51-13 as our Highest-Rated Megabucks winner over the Wildcats and now we look to repeat. Missouri was undefeated and gave LSU everything they had for three quarters before the Bayou Tigers prevailed. The Tigers are a well balanced solid club that has beaten Kentucky seven of eight and have only been the favorite twice and they can beat you a number of different ways.The Wildcats QB Devin Leary has completed just 54.8 percent of his passes for 1,257 yards and 12 touchdowns, with five interceptions, this season. Take MISSOURI! |

10-14-23 | USC v. Notre Dame -2.5 | 20-48 | Win | 100 | 19 h 33 m | Show | |
USC at Notre Dame 8:00 ET Fighting Irish over Trojans- Notre Dame (5-2) is coming off last weekend's 33-20 loss at then-No. 25 Louisville. Irish quarterback Sam Hartman completed 22 of 38 passes for 254 yards and two touchdowns, but he also threw his first three interceptions of the season. Here comes Southern Cal a perfect 6-0 into the Golden Dome where the Fighting Irish are laying in wait...(like USC alum OJ). Expect the same result! I believe that Notre Dame is better balanced and cam actually play defense. Last week USC escaped Arizona 43-41 in triple overtime posted the victory despite being out-gained 506-365. Saturday will mark the 94th meeting between the programs, and the Irish hold a 50-38-5 advantage in the all-time series. USC won 38-27 last season in Los Angeles and turn-about is fair play. Take NOTRE DAME! |

10-14-23 | Iowa v. Wisconsin -9 | 15-6 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 50 m | Show | |
Iowa at Wisconsin 4:00 ET Badgers (-) over Hawkeyes- The Hawkeyes have grown used to getting the best of Wisconsin against the number. The Badgers are not an explosive team and never have been as they a ground and pound machine which keep most games rather close especially when play a team with the same likeness, Iowa is always defense first and has been out-gained by 1,031 net yards over the past three games so when these two get together we don’t expect many fireworks. Meanwhile, Wisconsin is 3-0 SUATS with revenge in this series and the defense has been keeping opponents out of the end zone, allowing less than 15 PPG in their three consecutive victories. The Badgers are 8-0 ATS as home favorites of less than 12 points with revenge. Take WISCONSIN! |

10-14-23 | Oregon +3.5 v. Washington | Top | 33-36 | Win | 100 | 15 h 47 m | Show |
Oregon at Washington 3:30 ET Ducks (+) over Huskies- Here is the Pac-12 folding and this is the first time both No. 7 Washington and No. 8 Oregon have been ranked in the Top 10 when meeting in the rivalry's 123-year history. This contest features a pair of quarterbacks who are Heisman Trophy candidates: Oregon's Bo Nix and Washington's Michael Penix Jr. Both the Ducks (5-0, 2-0 Pac-12) and Huskies (5-0, 2-0) are coming off bye weeks that helped them get healthy. Penix is averaging 399.8 yards per game with 16 touchdowns; Nix has an 80.4 completion percentage with 15 TDs. The Huskies defeated the Ducks 37-34 last season in Eugene, Ore., on a 43-yard field goal with 51 seconds remaining. Revenge will be sweet for a team ranked in Top-10 on both offense and defense. Take OREGON! |

10-14-23 | Wake Forest v. Virginia Tech -120 | 13-30 | Win | 100 | 15 h 50 m | Show | |
Wake Forest at Virginia Tech 3:30 ET Hokies over Demon Deacons- It will be homecoming for the Hokies (2-4, 1-1), who are coming off a 39-17 road setback against then-No. 5 Florida State. Wake Forest (3-2, 0-2 ACC) is facing a two-game skid, and has had shortcomings on offense, especially inside its opponent's 20-yard line, which has eight touchdowns in 23 red-zone trips this season. The Hokies have won six of the last eight meetings between the teams. The Demon Deacons haven't won in Blacksburg since 1983, though they've only made two trips there since then. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
10-13-23 | Fresno State v. Utah State +5 | 37-32 | Push | 0 | 9 h 60 m | Show | |
Fresno State at Utah State 8:00 ET Aggies (+) over Bulldogs- Utah State has overcome a 1-3 start with consecutive wins over UConn and Colorado State but neither of those schools is in the same class as Fresno State. Head coach Jeff Tedford is pushing all the right buttons at Fresno, off to a 15-5 start in his second stint at Fresno State. The Bulldog offense was slowed considerably by Wyoming in their first loss last week, Utah State may be able to replicate that work. and they can score at least. Take UTAH STATE! |

10-12-23 | Broncos +10.5 v. Chiefs | Top | 8-19 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 50 m | Show |
Denver at Kansas City 8:15 ET Broncos (+) over Chiefs- I noticed that Russell Wilson is the third rated (106,1) quarterback in the NFL behind Purdy and Tagovaloa, but he doesn’t pass my personal eye test as he has lost a step and goes not to easily. That being said Denver overall has been a major disappointment as their overall play is so substandard especially their defense. Now, Kansas City is who we believe they are am I am wondering just how serious they are taking the Broncos as they have defeated them an unbelievable 15 straight times. The Chiefs are not worried about the Broncos have next week off followed by a home game against the Chargers and may not be fully focused...I hope! Take DENVER! |
|||||||
10-12-23 | Braves v. Phillies +133 | 1-3 | Win | 133 | 21 h 12 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Philadelphia 6:10 ET Phillies over Braves- Could this be a repeat of the 2022 playoff series where the Phillies took down the Braves 3-1 in games and won both contests in Philadelphia. The home advantage for the Phillies seem as big as anything as they are now 9-2 in their last 11 home playoff games including a 2-0 sweep of Atlanta last season. The Wahoo’s may have the pitching advantage with Spencer Strider (20-5) getting the start, but these newer ‘Wiz-Kids’ have the mojo on there side. When a team has this kind of karma they are hard to beat and the beat goes on...take PHILADELPHIA! |
|||||||
10-12-23 | West Virginia v. Houston +3 | 39-41 | Win | 100 | 30 h 40 m | Show | |
West Virginia at Houston 7:00 ET Cougars (+) over Mountaineers- At 4-1 West Virginia has been a surprise as the defeated TCU in Dallas Two weeks ago and have been resting with a bye since Sept. 30. Houston is a disappointing 2-3 with their wins coming over Sam Houston and UTSA not exactly powerhouses. Cougars coach Dana Holgorsen was the head man at UWV from 2010-2018 and this is his first meeting against his former club. QB Donovan Smith is more than capable having thrown for 336 yards in the loss to Texas Tech. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
10-11-23 | Braves v. Phillies -122 | Top | 2-10 | Win | 100 | 17 h 2 m | Show |
Atlanta at Philadelphia 6:00 ET Phillies over Braves- Hey, how ‘bout those pitching moves made by the Phillies in Game Two...No sense sticking with what is working if I can show every one how smart I am. Yep, that’s how I see it. Now, Aaron Nola is one started that the Phils management allows to pitch deep into games and even sometimes to a fault but not regularly. Nola has already thrown seven shutout playoff innings and he is 15-10 with a 3.40 ERA lifetime against the Braves logging 202 innings and only surrendering 178 hits with 203 strikeouts. Philly is 8-2 in their last 10 home playoff games. Braves with all the rest still haven’t decided who their starter will be, that doesn’t bode confidence to me...Take PHILADELPHIA! |
|||||||
10-10-23 | Orioles v. Rangers -133 | Top | 1-7 | Win | 100 | 18 h 48 m | Show |
Baltimore at Texas 8:05 ET Rangers over Orioles- It’s too bad at least from my eyes of what is about to happen because although ‘we’ did not play on the Orioles much during the season it was a joy to watch them come to play day in and day out. But, the playoffs are a different animal and if you have never been there before things are just a little different. Now, that withstanding it holds the same for Texas except that that came in starting with a hand that became hot after opener beating Tampa 2-0 and then veteran Nathan Ecvaldi (12-5, 3.65 ERA) closed out the Rays leading the way as they swept the Rays 7-1. Nathan has had clutch playoff performances and his confidence keeps these ferociously vicious Rangers bats relaxed. They are ON the ball. Take TEXAS! |

10-09-23 | Diamondbacks +137 v. Dodgers | 4-2 | Win | 137 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
Arizona at LA Dodgers 9:00 ET Diamondbacks over Dodgers- Arizona’s Zac Gallen has had a great season including an All-Star victory but he had one major problem and that was getting past these LA Dodgers. Gallen was 0-2 with a 9.90 ERA against them after having won 17 games and hurled to a 3.47 ERA. Los Angeles’ rookie right-hander Bobby Miller was 11-4 with a 3.76 ERA during the regular season including a win over the D’backs. But, this is the playoffs and with the pressure already on them LA faces a team brimming with confidence. Take ARIZONA! |

10-09-23 | Packers v. Raiders -125 | 13-17 | Win | 100 | 8 h 4 m | Show | |
Green Bay at Las Vegas Raiders 8:15 ET Raiders over Packers- It did not long before the Las Vegas faithful started to turn on their ‘team.’ Week after week Raider fans are selling their game tickets to visitors that travel to Las Vegas for fun and to root their ‘home’ team. Both clubs are off terrible performances as Green Bay was crushed by Detroit and Las Vegas struggled against the Chargers a rookie Adian O’Connell was forced into action as Jimmy Garappolo was sidelined with concession issues. With ‘Jimmy G’ back the Raiders have the edge over Jordan Love. Take LAS VEGAS! |

10-08-23 | Cowboys +4 v. 49ers | Top | 10-42 | Loss | -120 | 30 h 55 m | Show |
Dallas at San Francisco 8:20 ET Cowboys (+) over 49ers- A rematch of NFC’s playoff contenders that have met in the post season the past tow years with the Niners winning both. San Francisco along with Philadelphia are the two remaining undefeated NFL squads. The Cowboys have three wins of 20 points or more and the 49ers have a pair of 18-point victories. QB Broke Purdy was 20-of-21 last week against Arizona and still hasn’t loss a regular season game as a starter. That ends here! Look for the Cowboys ‘D’ to assert itself. Take DALLAS! |

10-08-23 | Jets v. Broncos -135 | 31-21 | Loss | -135 | 26 h 38 m | Show | |
New York Jets at Denver 4:25 ET Broncos over Jets- I know what I saw last week and I still am having difficulty processing the results. Denver who we know stinks rallied against Chicago last Sunday with washed-up Russell Wilson leading the way. New York impressed a national audience against Kansas City and got the cover with Zach Wilson playing the best game of his three year career. Talk about an over reaction (people now think that Zach can actually play football) to the Jets QB. The Broncos gained some much needed confidence and are at home where they can they beat the Jets. Take DENVER! |

10-08-23 | Chiefs v. Vikings +3.5 | 27-20 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 25 m | Show | |
Kansas City at Minnesota 4:25 ET Vikings (+) over Chiefs- Kansas city may have won their third straight game after an opening home loss to Detroit, but they and especially Patrick Mahomes just don’t seem right. Mahomes passer rating is at 92.0 and that is 13 points below his career average. Minnesota dropped their first three games before posting a come-back win at Carolina and have a quarterback in Kirk Cousins ranking No. 3 with 287 YPG and No. 1 with 27 completions per game. Look for vikings to ambush the clubs that defeated them for the AFL’s first Super Bowl victory. Ha! Take MINNESOTA! |

10-08-23 | Rangers v. Orioles -113 | Top | 11-8 | Loss | -113 | 13 h 38 m | Show |
Texas at Baltimore 4:05 ET Orioles over Rangers- Baltimore was able to take a deep breath after their opening series loss 3-2 to the Rangers as they realize this is a best of five series. Texas will send Jordan Montgomery to the hill and he opened the Wild Card round defeating Tampa Bay 2-0 with seven shutout innings and he is 3-1 with a 3.04 ERA in 16 career starts against the O’s. The Orioles send rookie Grayson Rodriguez who closed the season 5-2 in his last 13 starts with a 2.58 ERA. These birds have been the best in the AL all season and I expect them to respond today. Take BALTIMORE! |

10-08-23 | Texans v. Falcons -125 | 19-21 | Win | 100 | 22 h 24 m | Show | |
Houston at Atlanta 1:00 ET Falcons (+) over Texans- Surprisingly enough C.J. Stroud has been the most successful of the ‘Big-3’ quarterbacks starting as rookies this season. Atlanta has a second year QB in Desmond Ridder who is struggling in this league (I am being kind) but, they do have one of the best young runners in the NFL in Bijan Robinson. There has been an over-action to the Texas winning a few game an they come back to reality this week as the Falcons grind this one out with their superior run game. Take ATLANTA! |

10-08-23 | Jaguars +6 v. Bills | Top | 25-20 | Win | 100 | 20 h 60 m | Show |
Jacksonville vs. Buffalo 9:30 ET Jaguars (+) over Bills- This contest is interesting on so many levels that I don’t really know where to start. I will with the location which is of course London, England and that throws a money wrench at us to start with. Jacksonville has made these games played overseas their home away from home as this is their 12th appearance including a win over Atlanta last week. Buffalo is coming off a huge win over Miami while the Jaguars remained to play for the second week in-a-row. These two met at Wembley Stadium in 2015 with the Jaguars winning 34-31 and I expect much of the same this time around. Take JACKSONVILLE! |

10-07-23 | Oregon State v. California +7.5 | 52-40 | Loss | -105 | 21 h 27 m | Show | |
Oregon State at California 10:00 ET Golden Bears (+) over Beavers- State’s run defense is ranked fourth nationally but they will be without a pair of standouts for the first hale due to targeting ejections against Utah last week. California rebounded last week with a win over Arizona State after getting whopped by Washington the previous week. Cal’s offense averages 50 yards better than the conference average and will be able to stay with the Beavers- Take CALIFORNIA! |

10-07-23 | Michigan v. Minnesota +20 | 52-10 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 1 m | Show | |
Michigan at Minnesota 7:30 ET Golden Gophers (+) over Wolverines - Has Jim Harbaugh made it to the sidelines yet for Michigan...yep he has. The Wolverines are 5-0 and won their first road games last week pasting hapless Nebraska 45-7 while unranked Minnesota is off a unimpressive win over non-conference foe Louisiana and the precious week they blew a 21-point lead and lost in OT to Northwestern. The Golden Gophers have won just two of the last 27 meetings but coach PJ Fleck believe that they are ready for this Saturday night prime time meeting. Take MINNESOTA! |

10-07-23 | Kentucky v. Georgia -14 | Top | 13-51 | Win | 100 | 19 h 47 m | Show |
Kentucky at Georgia 7:00 ET Bulldogs (-) over Wildcats- Georgia has won 22 straight games and had to rally from 10-points down to defeat Auburn last week but they never panicked. With this Kentucky entering Athens the Bulldogs will look to bottle up Kentucky star running back Ray Davis who ran for 280 yards against Florida last week. That put Georgia on notice and although the Wildcats are 5-0 they have not seen anything like this Bulldog defense. Pedigree is the difference and the Bulldogs have it. Take GEORGIA! |

Alabama at Texas A&M 3:30 ET Aggies (+) over Crimson Tide- the last time Alabama came to College Station the Aggies pulled off the outright upset 41-38 two seasons ago. bot clubs are 4-1 and tied for the SEC West and 2-0 in conference play. The unranked Aggies, who are just 3-12 all-time against the Crimson Tide and yet the price is under a field goal. Nick Saban and A&M coach Jimbo Fisher have had some heated moments in the past and both will have their respective squads ready and just comes down to who can perform at their opium level and I just don’t believe that the Tide’s talent just isn’t up to it. take TEXAS A&M. |

10-07-23 | Purdue +2.5 v. Iowa | 14-20 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 59 m | Show | |
Purdue at Iowa 3:30 ET Boilermakers (+) over Hawkeyes- Iowa plays the same way year in and year out they always present a stout defense and very little offense and this year is no different. Never much of a passing team Iowa is worst then ever when throwing the ball and it is such a huge part of today’s game. Deacon Hill relieved Cade McNamara at QB and although the Hawkeyes won 26-16 over Michigan State he was just 11-of- 27 for just 115 yards and will start Saturday. Boilermakers are actually better on both sides of the ball out-gaining the Hawks by 160 yards on offense and defending against the 132 ranked offense that averages just 240.8 ypg. Take PURDUE! |

10-07-23 | Washington State v. UCLA -3 | 17-25 | Win | 100 | 15 h 35 m | Show | |
Washington State at UCLA 3:30 ET Bruins (-) over Cougars- This contest presents us with an opportunity that happens more often in College basketball. This is when a ranked team is posted as an underdog against an un-ranked team. Here we have No. Washington State 4-0 second in the nation in passing yards per game with 405.8. The Cougars are off a win over Oregon State and have had two weeks to pat themselves on the back while UCLA is off a hard fought loss to Utah and stayed with the Utes going toe-to-toe falling 14-7. A great spot for the Bruins...Take UCLA! |

10-07-23 | Maryland +20 v. Ohio State | 17-37 | Push | 0 | 24 h 26 m | Show | |
Maryland at Ohio State 12:00 ET Buckeyes (-) over Terrapins- Maryland is 5-0 and all of the Buckeyes opponents this season were undefeated until they played The Ohio State University. The buckeyes scored an emotional victory over Notre Dame last time out and have had two weeks to prepare for (Tau II) Taulia Tagovalioa who already has thrown for 9,343 yards. OSU is 4-0 at home against The Terps winning by an average score of 62.5-18.3 and have scored at least 62 points in the last three home meetings. Take OHIO STATE! |

Oklahoma vs Texas 12:00 ET Sooners (+) over Longhorns- There was a time this Red River Rivalry was the biggest experience in college football but educators have mad a mess of that. Both clubs are undefeated and 5-0 and this should have national implications as Texas has already beaten Alabama and Oklahoma is looking to atone for last year’s 49-0 thrashing. Sooners QB Dillon Gabriel was down with an injury last season and he is something the Longhorns will have trouble with. Take OKLAHOMA! 1 |

Rutgers at Wisconsin 12:00 ET Badgers (-) over Scarlet Knights- Rutgers has come a lone way since entering the Big Ten under coach Greg Schiano and they are 4-1 this season. The Scarlet Knights had their way against Wagner last week pounding the poor undermanned club 52-3. The Knights know what it is like to be on the other end of a rout as Wisconsin is 4-0 versus Rutgers and won the last meetings 52-3. Corn fed badgers too big and powerful for the upstarts form New Jersey. Take WISCONSIN! |

Kansas State at Oklahoma State 7:30 ET Cowboys (+) over Wildcats- From what I have seen to date the best thing I can think of to say about Oklahoma State is that teams get better with good coaching and the Cowboys have well respected Mike Gundy at the helm and he is an amazing 14-3 SU when the Cowboys are exactly .500 including 9-0 ATS against teams with winning records. OSU has won seven of eight home meetings since 2003. Take OKLAHOMA STATE! |

10-05-23 | Bears +6.5 v. Commanders | 40-20 | Win | 100 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
Chicago at Washington 8:15 ET Bears (+) over Commanders- Washington came through for ‘us’ as our second Rivalry Winner (2-0) when they forced the Eagles into overtime before falling to a field goal. Chicago, well, it was hard to believe what we saw in the fourth quarter as the Bears allowed the lowly Broncos to find an offense and come back from a 28-7 deficit. Chicago has now lost 14 straight games and Washington defeated the Bears on a Thursday night in Chicago 12-7 just two weeks before they won their last game. I expect a full 60-minute effort out of the Bears and for this game to play close. Take CHICAGO! |

10-04-23 | Marlins +142 v. Phillies | Top | 1-7 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 46 m | Show |
Miami at Philadelphia 8:05 ET Marlins over Phillies- I can not recall how many times I thought that Miami was done and their run was ready to come to an end. But, the resilient Marlins hung in and on into the post season and once again it looks like they are finished. Tonight, they send Braxton Garrett (9-7, 3.66 ERA) to the mound and he has had one outing against the Phillies last season where he struck out 11 and is 2-1 with a 4.50 ERA. Philadelphia will go with work horse Aaron Nola (12-9, 4.46) while going 0-1 with a 5.47 in his final five starts. He is also 5-10 with a 3.58 ERA against Miami in 23 appearances including a pair of losses this year in three starts surrendering 13 runs in 16 innings giving up five home runs. Take MIAMI! |

10-04-23 | Diamondbacks +116 v. Brewers | Top | 5-2 | Win | 116 | 14 h 47 m | Show |
Arizona at Milwaukee 7:05 ET Diamondbacks over Brewers- The Diamondbacks came through for ‘us’ yesterday as our Top-Rated Wild Card winner and made a hefty profit. After losing their final four games of the regular season Arizona is ready to advance with a win behind their ace Zac Gallen (17-9, 3.47 ERA) who is 3-3 with a 1.75 ERA in six appearances against Milwaukee. In two starts this season against the Brewers he was 2-0 in 14 innings allowing just six hits and only one run (on a homer). The desperate Brewers can not use scheduled starter Brandon Woodruff and will go with Freddy Peralta (12-10, 3.86) and he is 3-0 with an era of 0.55 in 16 innings with 24 strikeouts. No doubt he has been great against the Diamondbacks but baseball is a team game and funky stuff happens in the playoffs. Take ARIZONA! |

Toronto at Minnesota 4:35 ET Twins over Blue Jays- The Twins felt like that were going to end their record 18-game post-season streak end they saw their nemesis the New York Yankees failed to make the playoffs. the Yankees had defeated Minnesota 16-of 17 playoff games dating back to the Tins last post season victory which came in 2004. Toronto manager John Schneider said the they will not dwell on their loss...so I expect them to lose again so he will have a strong memory of their post defeat. Sonny Gray (8-8, 2.79 ERA) gets the start for hr Twins and he is 4-4 with a 2.91 ERA in 15 career appearances against the Blue Jays. Toronto will send Jose Berrios (11-12, 3.65) to the mound and he is 3-1 with a 4.03 ERA pitching 5.2 scoreless innings in May. Not today. Take MINNESOTA! |

10-03-23 | Diamondbacks +172 v. Brewers | 6-3 | Win | 172 | 31 h 35 m | Show | |
Arizona at Milwaukee 7:10 ET Diamondbacks over Brewers- When a team can lose their last four games of the season and stills qualifies for the post-season they are destined to cause playoffs issues for everybody. Last year it was Philadelphia that was the lowest rated team to make the playoffs and they went to the World Series. This game may be more about mojo that talent and it can does does shift on a dime. The home field and pitchers are of not concern as the best often lose and weak prevail. The Diamondbacks seem the most unlikely to advance but they can still bite with venom. Take ARIZONA! |

Seattle at New York Giants 8:15 ET Giants (+) over Seahawks- To start with the Seahawks have never lost at Giants Stadium (5-0) even winning a Super Bowl there while New York was watching it on TV. Expectations were high for the Giants this season a bit too high I believe and they have shown that to be true up to now. Seattle once again has been an over-achiever and I get you have to credit their coaching for that but at time that is their Achilles heel. The key factor here is that the Giants have had 10 days to regroup after their 30-12 beat-down from the Niners. NY lost at Seattle last season and if their coaching is where I expect them to be the Giants should move the ball and keep the Hawks below the 37-points that they have scored in their last two games. Take NEW YORK GIANTS |

Kansas City at New York Jets 8:20 ET Jets (+) over Chiefs- Poor Jets and poor NFL, their will be no Rodgers and Mahomes shootout as New York is stuck with Zach Wilson whom is the major part of the Jets failure on offense. In an era where a 67% completion rate is average Wilson’s is at 52.4% with only two TD’s and four interceptions this season. New York’s defense is supposed to be ‘elite’ and other than a second half effort against Buffalo they have not been there yet this year. The defense comes to play tonight to spare themselves the embarrassment for what most people expect to see happen. It won’t! Take the NEW YORK JETS! |

Philadelphia at New York Mets 3:10 ET Mets over Phillies- Philadelphia is just looking to set their rotation for Tuesday’s wild card game against either Miami or Arizona. New York swept a meaningless double-header on Saturday and will complete the 3-game sweep today with Jose Butto (1-3, 3.75 ERA)) getting the start. The Phillies will send Matt Strahm (9-5, 3.32) to the hill to be followed by Nick Nelson who will make his first appearance of the year. Take the METS! |

Miami at Buffalo 1:00 ET Bills (-) over Dolphins- This should be the game of the day in the NFL this Sunday as to offensive juggernaut that is the Miami Dolphins invade Buffalo to challenge the Division champion Bills. Buffalo got off the a rough start as Josh Allen was picked off four times by the Jets defense but Allen has responded like the pro he is with a pair of outstanding games against Las Vegas and Washington. The play here is against any time that scores 70 points in their previous game but the price is so short the odds makers are believing the Dolphins are for real. I think they are but they will fall sometime and it should be here. Take BUFFALO! |

Minnesota at Carolina 1:00 ET Panthers (+) over Vikings- The best thing the NFL in thinking about this match-up of a pair of 0-3 clubs is that most likely one of them will emerge with a victory. Last season Minnesota was fortunate enough to win most their one-score games (close ones) and this season it looks like the worm has turned. This year they when the do win they are not supposed to cover the number as favorites. Carolina of course is starting rookie QB Bryce Young who returns from and ankle injury and first year quarterbacks are known to struggle. But, it is the Panthers defense that will dictate the tempo and the flow of this game. Take CAROLINA! |

LA Rams at Indianapolis 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Rams- The Colts are galloping alone with Gardner Minshew at quarterback and have won their last two including an overtime win at Baltimore. So, now Indy with the return of Anthony Richardson a choice of two QB’s with different styles. Los Angeles has no such issue as Mathew Stafford is at the helm, but he’s running for his life with a line that surrendered six sacks against the Bengals Monday night. The Colts have a fresh attitude this season and the rest of the league will have to realize that. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |

Washington at Philadelphia 1:00 ET Commies (+) over Eagles- It appears that the Eagles are shaping into form while the Commanders already have to regroup. Washington was totally out-classed by the Buffalo Bills last week managing only a field goal in their 37-3 drubbing while Philly was workman like in their dominating win at Tampa Bay. Jalen Hurts is almost perfect as a starting QB winning 20 of his past 21 starts with his only blemish coming against the Commandos. Lighting strikes twice as the division home dog gets the money.

Cincinnati at Tennessee 1:00 ET Titans (+) over Bengals- So, thing are now supposed to be alright with the Bengals who posted their first win of the season over the Rams Monday night. Well, not so fst my friend! Cincinnati did have six sacks against LA but quarterback Joe Burrow still does not look the same. Maybe it is rust from not playing during the preseason in which he was hurt or maybe his injury is hampering his play because to me he still hasn’t passed the eye test. In other words he don’t look so good. The Titans are off a 27-3 loss at Cleveland (A-Play winner) and their is little that can said in a positive vein about their performance. But, like most professional teams when they have a game like that they play with more intensity and compassion the following week. Take TENNESSEE! |

The No. 12 Crimson Tide will take another swing at finding their past standard when they visit Mississippi State in a Southeastern Conference battle on Saturday night at Starkville, Miss. Mississippi State (2-2, 0-2) have lost back-to-back games but have quarterback Will Rogers at the helm and he passed for a career-high 487 yards in last week's 37-30 road loss to South Carolina. It was his ninth career 400-yard outing. Rogers has completed 70 percent of his passes over four seasons for 11,668 yards and 88 touchdowns. The yardage is the third-highest total in SEC history.

Notre Dame at Duke 7:30 ET Blue Devils over Fighting Irish- ESPN's College GameDay comes to town with No. 17 Duke hosting No. 11 Notre Dame. Duke (4-0) has never been part of the longtime pregame college football show as a host or opponent. The task at hand for the Blue Devils is beating Notre Dame (4-1), a team motivated to get back in the win column after suffering its first loss of the season. Notre Dame had only 10 men on the field for the final two plays from scrimmage, the second of which saw the Buckeyes score the go-ahead touchdown on a run up the gut. Notre Dame boasts the nation's 18th-best scoring offense, putting up 39.6 points per game and a defense, allowing just 12.8 points per game, which ranks 15th in FBS. Duke is 28th in offense and fourth in defense, allowing just 8.8 points per game. Take DUKE! |

Now, this wasn’t a meaningless contest as the win moved Cincinnati into a tie with the Cubs for the final Wild Card spot.

The Tigers (3-1, 2-0) and the Rebels (3-1, 0-1) have both shown short-coming as the Ole Miss offense has had issues and LSU on defense. The Rebels were 7-0 and ranked No. 7 in the country last season when LSU beat them 45-20 in Baton Rouge, La. and look to atone for that performance. Take MISSISSIPPI! |

No. 3 Texas and No. 24 Kansas will look to continue torrid starts to the season when they square off in Austin, Texas. Both teams are 4-0 overall and 1-0 in conference play. The Jayhawks used a 22-yard fumble return from Cobee Bryant to race to an early lead and then added a 30-yard pick-six by Kenny Logan Jr. they won’t be so fortunate this week. The Longhorns are 17-4 against Kansas all-time and 9-1 when the teams play in Austin. Texas defeated Kansas in Lawrence last season, 55-14 and the Jayhawks' 2021 win in Austin is their only victory as a visitor. Take TEXAS! |

Georgia (4-0, 1-0 SEC) went 6-for-6 inside the 20 in a convincing 49-21 win over UAB on Saturday. The Bulldogs had 582 yards of total offense despite three turnovers. Auburn (3-1, 1-0 SEC) enters its match-up with the Bulldogs with serious question marks on offense after failing to find the end zone against Texas A&M.

The Cougars (3-1, 0-1 Big 12) got nothing from their ground game (22 attempts, 9 yards) and allowed 6 yards per carry to the Jayhawks. Cincinnati (2-2, 0-1) got Oklahoma at home for its first Big 12 game and kept the Sooners in check but couldn't do enough on offense in a 20-6 loss last week. The Bearcats held the Sooners 35 points under their average but went just 3-for-15 on third-down conversions and couldn't find the end zone. Bearcats tougher than most believe. Take CINCINNATI! |

NC State (3-1, 1-0) might need to get its offense cranked up if it intends to keep up with the Cardinals. The arrival of quarterback Brennan Armstrong to the Wolfpack was supposed to be accompanied by a dynamic offense that failed against hos former Virginia mates last week.

It was one of the wiser things that I have done this season, but here I am at the well again looking to drink some tainted water. The reason to me is clear here as Washington a full 10-games better than Chicago and yet at home they are an underdog. The difference in the price is because of the starters. For the White Sox it is Mike Clevinger (7-8, 3.61 ERA) and for the Nats it will be Joan Adon (2-2, 5.92) who has surrendered 23 runs in his last six starts in 31 innings. Take the WHITE SOX! |

Money Game winner Minnesota at Philadelphia 8:15 ET Vikings (+) over Eagles- My original thoughts on this meeting is that the Eagles will play a better game this week than they did in their opening week win at New England. This season it would be fitting for Minnesota to take a big fall after a string of close wins last year and it might be catch up with them where they lose close games. In my way of thinking I should be all over the Vikings after a home loss but with just 41 yards rushing they shouldn’t do much better against this one of the NFL’s tougher defenses. But, Philly managed just 251 yards on offense against the Patriots. Not, enough tonight. Take MINNESOTA! |
