11-15-23 | Georgetown v. Rutgers UNDER 136.5 | 60-71 | Win | 100 | 20 h 31 m | Show | |
UNDER 136.5 This is a Gavitt Tipoff Games matchup. Georgetown (1-1, 1-1 ATS) takes on Rutgers (2-1, 1-2 ATS) on Wednesday night, this one tips off at 8:30pm ET from the Jersey Mike's Arena, in Piscataway, NJ. Last game out the Hoyas blew an 11-point lead to Holy Cross and the final score was 68-67. The Knights last game was a 66-57 win over Bryant. Before that, a 69-45 win over Boston U. The Hoyas are averaging 80PPG (135th) with a 47.5 FG% (127th). The Knights are averaging 65PPG (302nd) with a 38.2 FG% (321st). This is going to be a slow paced game. Neither team likes to push the ball and it is going to produce few chances for easy buckets. Georgetown is in full rebuild right now. This team is putting in a lot of different pieces this year and it showed in their loss to HC. They slowed things down and had no offensive rhythm in that game. Now, they get a very tough Rutgers defense, that is very physical. Rutgers meanwhile is going to match this pace. They don't shoot the ball all that well for starters and their ability to get out and run in transition is very slim. There should be a lot of shot clock chewing and late shots in this one. The total has gone UNDER in 5 of the Hoyas' L6 against an opponent in the Big 10. On the other side, the total has gone UNDER in 11 of Rutgers' L15, and the total has gone UNDER in 8 of Rutgers' L12 vs. GTown. We're backing the UNDER on Wednesday. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-15-23 | Buffalo v. Miami-OH UNDER 39.5 | 10-23 | Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
Under 39.5 A MACtion play for Humpday! Has a nice ring to it..hey? Tonight we get the Buffalo Bulls (3-7, 5-5 ATS, 2-3 AWAY) taking on the Miami-OH Redhawks (8-2, 8-2 ATS, 3-1 HOME). Miami is a 9pt favorite the O/U is 39.5. Watch this one on ESPN2. Miami and Buffalo are an even 4-4 against each other since October 2015 in the L8. H2H records over the L3 games BUFF owns a 2-1 advantage. They've averaged 28PPG in those 3 games to M-OH's 25. Last games out, Miami took down Akron 19-0. Akron mustered up 212 total yards. Buffalo lost 20-10 to Ohio. A game they decided to stay in the locker room for in the second half. They were terrible. Buffalo did win the last matchup between these two, a 24-20 win in October 2022. We're on the Under as Miami welcomes in Buffalo for Senior Day on Wednesday night. This is a tale of two teams just in complete opposite directions. Buffalo has been a mess this year as they simply cannot find the endzone. Meanwhile, Miami Ohio has been stellar on the defensive side of things, while playing a very slow tempo on the offensive side.This should be the kind of game where the run games are the headliner. Neither team will take shots down field and the clock should be running constantly with all the runs. The Under has been a nice play for both teams and we should see Miami Ohio be the ones who control the possession in this game. They will sustain drives and chew a lot of this clock. Weather will be in the mid-50's, no rain or wind in forecast. Some trends, we've seen the total STAY UNDER in 6 of the L6 for the Bulls. Plus the total has gone UNDER in 5 of the L5 vs. MAC teams for Buffalo. On the other side, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of the RedHawks' L6. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* CFB MACtion O/U Play |

11-14-23 | Devils v. Jets -140 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 48 m | Show | |
Jets ML Probable Goalies: Schmid (1-2-1, 3.08 GAA, 0.898 SV%) vs. Hellebuyck (6-4-1, 2.98 GAA, 0.892 SV%) The New Jersey Devils (7-5-1) travel to Winnipeg tonight to take on the Jets. (7-5-2) The puck drop is scheduled for 8pm ET from Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg. Tonight's goalie matchup features the Jets' #1, Hellebuyck, who had a tough outing in his last game, letting in three goals on 29 shots. He's eager to bounce back and secure his seventh win of the season at home. On the other side, Schmid, who replaced Vanecek in his last game, hasn't seen a victory since October 20, allowing six goals on 62 shots in his last three appearances. The struggling Devils have lost three of their last four games, making this a crucial matchup for both teams. New Jersey was projected to be a top team this year and they haven’t yet to find their groove. This is a nice spot to fade them. For starters, they’re missing two huge pieces right now. Hughes and Hischier both remain sidelined as they come into play here. The production those two give is just a lot to be missing. The Jets are one of the most physical teams in the league too. They go right at teams and aren’t shy about attacking. This is the kind of game they have an edge in, which also includes home ice. Play the better team right now that is healthier. The Jets have won 2 of the L3 vs. NJ. These two are very close statistically, both averaging 3.6GPG, WPG averages 33 SPG, while NJ takes 32SPG. New Jersey are 2-10 SU in their L12 vs. the Jets, and 1-5 in their L6 on the road in WPG. Backing the Jets tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL ML Play |

11-14-23 | Spurs v. Thunder -10.5 | 87-123 | Win | 100 | 6 h 58 m | Show | |
Thunder -10.5 The Spurs come into this one (3-7, 4-6 ATS, 1-4 AWAY) taking on a Thunder team that is (6-4, 7-3 ATS, 3-3 HOME). This matchup is another NBA tournament game, and it's the only NBA play I love. (Other than the free play I put up) so we'll call this an 8* winner! Tip-off is at 7:30pm ET from the Paycom Center in OKC. The Spurs take on the Thunder tonight. OKC is 3-0 vs. SAS L3. They've averaged 117PPG in those 3, to SAS's 105. Spurs near the bottom of the league in most defensive categories, and OKC starting to surge. SGA is healthy, and the Thunder come in off a HUGE win last game out vs. the Suns (111-99). Those kind of wins over teams that are supposed to beat you can be season defining. I'm not sure we're there yet, but it was a confidence and moral booster for sure. Suns had an 86-80 lead into the 4th but a wicked 26-9 run by OKC sealed the deal. Beal & Durant couldn't help in this one. OKC can play some defense can't they? Williams, Dort, and Wallace all make life difficult in and around the paint. The hussle is off the charts. (If I wasn't a life-long Seattle Supersonics fan I might actually like this OKC team) Sunday the Spurs lost 118-113 to the Heat. Only the Grizz, Wizards, and Pistons are doing worse (according to the standings). Spurs can't stop teams from hitting the 3. Plus they're bottom of the league in steals and opponent turnovers. Sure Wemby can block balls, but this SAS team don't help themselves much. Also, their "tall ball" lineup isn't working either IMO. Only positive they're somehow averaging 113PPG. The Spurs are 1-4 ATS in their L5, are 0-4-1 ATS in their L5 vs. OKC, and are 3-6 SU in their L9 vs. OKC. On the other side OKC are 4-1 ATS in their L5, and finally, they're 5-2 ATS in their L7 at home. I'm on the Thunder tonight ATS. (Seeing -10.5). Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* NBA ATS Play |

11-14-23 | Bruins -142 v. Sabres | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 43 m | Show | |
Bruins ML Probable Goalies: Ullmark (5-1-1, 2.26 GAA, 0.926 SV%) vs. Levi (3-3, 3.17 GAA, 0.896 SV%) The Boston Bruins (11-1-2) travel to Buffalo tonight to take on the Sabres. (7-7-1) We’re on the Bruins here, laying some juice on the road. Boston is just the better team overall. Last game out, Ullmark made 35 saves but lost 5-4 to the Wings on Saturday. It was his highest shots faced and goals allowed this season, but he seems really confident in goal this year. The Bruins are one of the best at putting pucks on the net. They average nearly 32 shots per game and they really beat teams with their ability to attack the net. This is the kind of team that beats you off of rebounds. Buffalo is going to have their struggles gaining possession. The Sabres struggle with teams like Boston, who love to possess the puck and wear down the opposition. That’s going to be the case here as we should see Boston dominate in the Buffalo end and have them on their heels all night long. Boston are 11-3 SU in their L14, are 9-1 SU in their L10 against Buffalo, are 15-3 SU in their L18 road games, and finally, they're 10-1 SU in their L11 when playing on the road vs. the Sabres. Boston is the move here. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* NHL ML Play |

11-14-23 | Toledo v. Wright State OVER 166.5 | 78-77 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
OVER 166.5 (2-0, 2-0 ATS) Toledo Rockets take on the (0-1, 0-1 ATS) Wright State Raiders tonight at the Ervin J. Nutter Center in Fairborn, OH at 7pm ET. We backed a Toledo over once this year and it cashed with ease. Toledo has scored over 78 in every game dating back to the end of February last year, so these guys get after it. We’re going right back to them here with this Over against Wright State. The Rockets play so quickly and their ability to score is one of the best in the entire nation. This team is built with speed and the ability to shoot the 3 ball. Wright State isn’t shy either about their ability to push the tempo too. This is going to be the kind of game where both teams get out and run. Scoring in flurries and turning defense into offense is the speciality of both sides. Look for a back and forth game all night, in one that is certainly high scoring. In recent games, Wright State stayed close with the Rams until halftime on Friday, but things went south after that. They suffered a tough loss 105-77. Meanwhile, the Rockets secured a good win against the Ragin Cajuns with a score of 87-78. The total has gone OVER in 8 of Toledo's L9, plus the total has gone OVER in all of the Rockets L9 in November. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CBB O/U Play |

11-14-23 | Duke -3.5 v. Michigan State | 74-65 | Win | 100 | 7 h 23 m | Show | |
Duke -3.5 At 7pm from the United Center in Chicago #9 Duke (1-1, 1-1 ATS) faces #18 Michigan State (1-1, 0-2 ATS) in Chicago's Champions Classic. Michigan State began with a 79-76 OT loss to James Madison but rebounded with a 74-51 win over Southern Indiana. Duke, after a big win against Dartmouth, suffered its first loss to Arizona at home. We’re backing Duke here in a bounce back spot. It’s rare to see Duke lose at home, but they couldn’t solve Arizona on Friday night. We’ve seen this Duke team in the past really step up after losses and this is going to be the kind of game here where they certainly are up for it. The Blue Devils have a huge edge on the offensive end here. They will get a Spartans team that struggles with shooting the 3 ball. They’ve hit just 2 of 31 attempted so far which has become almost a head game for them. Duke is going to look to get out to a fast start, as they know they can’t dig themselves an early hole against a physical team like this. The style and tempo Duke plays with should be overwhelming for this Michigan State team. Expect plenty of run outs and transition buckets for Duke in this one. Duke are 6-2 ATS in their L8, are 11-2 SU in their L13, and are 6-3 ATS in their L9 vs. MSU. Plus they're 15-5 SU in their L20 vs. Big10 schools. Michigan State are 2-5 ATS in their L7. Back the Devils tonight to get back on track. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 7* CBB ATS Play |

11-14-23 | Toledo -10.5 v. Bowling Green | 32-31 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
Toledo -10.5 The (9-1, 5-5 ATS) Toledo Rockets take on the (6-4, 6-4 ATS) Bowling Green Falcons tonight at 7pm ET from the Doyt L. Perry Stadium in Bowling Green, OH. Toledo has taken down GB in 8 of their L10 H2H matchups, however the last time they locked horns BG got the W 42-35. Toledo is going to be the MAC West representative as they come in continuing to just dominate. They are 9-1 overall and undefeated in MAC play as they’re torching the opposition. This Rockets team can certainly crack the Top 25 with a win here or at least be right in the middle of the conversation.Their lone loss was Week 1 on a last second game to Illinois. Since then, they’ve ran over teams and are putting up big offensive numbers. The Rockets dropped 49 on the Eagles last week and should be able to pick apart this Bowling Green secondary. Look for them to start this off by wearing them down with the run, which should in turn open up a lot of passing lanes. The Rockets have been dominating MAC opponents, their ground game, led by Peny Boone, is especially strong, averaging 7.1 YPC and he's grabbed himself 12 touchdowns this season. The Falcons allow 3.9 YPC, and they haven't faced anyone of note. I just don't see BG slowing him down. We’re backing the better team on both sides of the ball. Toledo are 9-0 SU in their L9, and are 11-2 SU in their L13 games against Bowling Green. On the flip side, Bowling Green are 1-5 SU in their L6 playing at home against the Rockets. Let's ride the Rockets tonight. Up next, the MAC championship game for Toledo. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 6* CFB ATS Play |

11-14-23 | Wisconsin v. Providence +1.5 | 59-72 | Win | 100 | 5 h 19 m | Show | |
Providence +1.5 Adding another CBB play here after crunching some more numbers. Tonight at 6pm ET from the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence, RI as the (1-1, 1-1 ATS) Wisconsin Badgers take on the (2-0, 1-1 ATS) Providence Friars. In their recent matchup, Wisconsin suffered an 80-70 defeat to Tennessee. On the other hand, the Friars head into Tuesday's game undefeated this season, having won 79-69 against Milwaukee on Saturday. We’re on Providence in what should be a gritty battle. Providence can lean on their defense here. Wisconsin is such a slow team that does not have any sort of tempo. Their attack lags spark and that fits right into the advantage of Providence. The Friars have been solid defensively through their first two games, allowing less than 70 in each of them. They should be able to frustrate the Badgers. Expect a ton of high pressure defense, with them forcing some tough shots and turnovers in the process. But the big question tonight for me is whether the Badgers can contain Josh Oduro. He was a force in the Friars' previous game, recording a double-double with 13 points and 12 boards. Oduro's impact should be a game-changer. The Friars are 18-2 SU in their L20 at home. This is tough place for a road team to come in and grab a W. I love the home dog tonight. Back the Friars. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 6* CBB ATS Play |

11-13-23 | Cavs v. Kings OVER 223.5 | 120-132 | Win | 100 | 21 h 55 m | Show | |
OVER 223.5 The Kings (4-4, 3-6 ATS) will play the Cavaliers (4-5, 4-4 ATS) in Sacramento, CA at the Golden 1 Center. The game starts at 10:00PM ET and can be watched on NBA TV. The over/under for the game is set at 226 points. The Kings are a slight 1-point favorite, with odds of -117 for Sacramento and -102 for Cleveland on the moneyline. Last game out, Cleveland won 118-110 at Golden State on Saturday. On Friday the Kings took down OKC 105-98. In terms of scoring, the Kings rank 19th in the NBA with an average of 111PPG, while the Cavs are 23rd with 109PPG. On the defensive end, the Cavs allow an average of 111PPG, making them the 13th-best team in the league in terms of limiting opponents' scoring. Sacramento's defense is ranked 17th, allowing an average of 113PPG. The last time these two met was 12/9/22 a 106-95 Kings win in Cleveland. We’re backing the Over here as the Cavs continue their west coast road trip against the Kings. This is going to be a fast paced game every way. Both teams love to get up and down the floor and they push the issue on the opposition constantly. Cleveland comes in off a win in Golden State as it was a game that featured plenty of fast paced push outs and early shots in the shot clock. The Kings and Cavs are both at their best when they play fast. This is going to turn into a track meet. Look for a high scoring, close game, down to the wire. Sacramento are 5-10 ATS in their L15 at home, and the total has gone OVER in 4 of Cleveland's last 5 on the road. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NBA OVER Play |

11-13-23 | Broncos +7.5 v. Bills | 24-22 | Win | 100 | 34 h 23 m | Show | |
Broncos +7.5 The Broncos (3-5, Broncos 2-5-1 ATS, 1-2 AWAY) and the Buffalo Bills (5-4, 3-6 ATS, 4-0 HOME) meet on Monday in MNF at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo, NY at 8:15pm. Watch this one on ESPN. In Week 9 Denver had a BYE week to gameplan, and get healthy for this matchup. Their last game Oct. 29, was the upset W over KC 24-9 as a +7 underdog. It was actually the Broncs first underdog W since Week 8 (2022). They've won 2 in a row, and their offense was clicking, and their pass rush was a huge factor. In Week 9 we saw Buffalo play the Bengals. Buffalo took the L, which was their 5th straight loss ATS, 24-18. The early week odds for this one had the Broncos +310 and Bills -400 on the ML, and ATS we're seeing the Bills -7.5. The O/U Total is set at 46.5. This rivalry goes back to 1960. The two have played 40x and the Bills have a 23-16-1 edge. Buffalo has won the L3 vs. Denver, and 5 of the L6. Broncos have consecutive games with 145 rushing yards, and it's clear the only way they keep this one close is to chew up clock on the run game. Javonte Williams is healthy and sitting at 357 RU yds on the season. He had his best game vs. KC (27car. 85 yds, 3 rec. 13 yds 1TD). To spell him the Broncs are using Jaleel McLaughlin as a chance of pace back, and sprinkle in Perine in short yardage. With the injuries to the Bills defense the Denver run game presents a clear and present danger in this one. If RW can hit some downfield targets to Sutton, Jeudy and Mims we'll have ourselves a game. The Bills secondary is beat up, check the injury reports. On the flip side don't forget the Broncos defense kept the Chiefs out of the endzone last game, so Sean Payton could be pushing all the right buttons. Denver hasn't allowed 20+ pts in 3 straight. Allen will have to be at his best for the Bills in this one. Currently he has 18 TD passes (good), but he also has 9 INT's (bad). It all spells a Broncos cover on MNF. Buffalo are 0-5 ATS in their L5, and they're 2-6 ATS in their L8 vs. AFC Teams. On the other side, Broncos are 9-1 ATS in their L10 after accumulating less than 250 total yards in their previous game. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NFL ATS Play |

11-13-23 | Michigan v. St. John's -2.5 | 89-73 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
St Johns -2.5 We're on the Red Storm here, laying the small number against Michigan. Rick Pitino will have his men ready for a prime time spot in front of nearly a national audience (FS1) (At least those not wanting to watch MNF, for which I also have a premium play up for, shameless plug). The Red Storm lead the all-time series 4-1. But, this will be their first H2H meeting in 23 years. Madison Square Garden will be behind the Red Storm in full force here on Monday night. St. Johns comes in 1-0 with a dominant offensive performance over Stony Brook last time out to start the season. It was the three ball that was the difference here as they drained 11x 3's and that is going to be their plan of attack here on Monday night. Look for them to push the tempo on Michigan and try to open shooting lanes for their 3 point attack. The Storm have a completely new roster, and for those that don't know them, tonight is your introduction. I know, I know Michigan comes in off of big wins for a combined 55pts, but those games were against North Carolina-Asheville and Youngstown State. In this one, Big Blue will struggle defensively with the speed and we should see St. Johns energized by this crowd. The Red Storm are 6-3 ATS in their last 9, are 4-1 ATS in their L5 vs. Big 10 teams, and are (dating back to 2022, 12-0 SU in their L12 in November). Back SJU. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-12-23 | Jets v. Raiders +1.5 | 12-16 | Win | 100 | 2 h 59 m | Show | |
Raiders +1.5 Late add here. I hummed and hawed about this play all day. Tonight on NBC's Sunday night football we get the 4-4 (4-3-1 ATS, 2-1 AWAY) Jets taking on the 4-5 (4-5 ATS, 3-1 HOME) Raiders. The Raiders are looking for their fourth win in their L6 games after a 30-6 takedown of the Giants in Week 9. On the other side the Jets lost 27-6 to the LA Chargers, in a game they were never in. I expect a heavy dose of Josh Jacobs and Adams here in this one. The Raiders know while the Jets have a great defense their runD is their weaker link, so lots of ball control tonight. You can't convince me that the Jets are the better team here, defensively maybe, but I think at home the Raiders just bring too much to the table. Pierce says he's going to run Jacobs a TON tonight, and I don't have any reason to argue. I can remember the Raiders/Seahawks game last year where Jacobs took over. I foresee that kind of night for him tonight. On defense the Raiders are playing aggressive, and I'm buying what they're selling led by Max Crosby. The Jets don't have the weapons to keep up here, and the Raiders should be the favorite tonight. Back Vegas tonight on SNF. The Jets are 4-10 SU in their L14, and are 2-6 SU in their L8 on the road. On the other side, dating back to last year, Las Vegas are 4-2 SU in their L6 played in November. Sunday Night 8* NFL ATS Play |

11-12-23 | Nuggets v. Rockets +4.5 | 104-107 | Win | 100 | 8 h 4 m | Show | |
Rockets +4.5 Sunday we get the (8-1, 5-4 ATS, 2-1 AWAY) Denver Nuggets taking on the (5-3, 4-3-1 ATS, 5-1 HOME) Houston Rockets in NBA betting action. This one tips off at 7:10ET from the Toyota Center in Houston. Both teams come into this one TOP 5 in defensive pts. allowed at 106PPG. The early season defense is on point. Houston is a better 3-pt shooting team thus far in the season, but of course Denver is scoring 116PPG, to Houston's 111PPG. RPG are pretty even tbh. Houston right now is the team to watch in the NBA. They’re playing at a top level and come in winners of 5 in a row. This is a much different defense that we’ve seen in past seasons from them too. They have been defending with a ton of pressure and are putting together solid performances with their ability to rebound the ball. Offensively, they’re getting contributions from a lot of different players each night too. This is a game they’ll be up for too. With the momentum and a top team in town, the Rockets will have a ton of motivation here. Look for them to keep this close with a chance to steal it outright. Jamal Murray is still OUT for this one for Denver. While Oladipo is of course OUT for Houston. The last time these two met was 4/4/23 a 124-103 Houston win. They covered the +11 in that one. Last game out the Nuggets took down the Warriors in a thriller 108-105. Houston got past the Pels 104-101 in a group stage tourney game. A couple trends, Denver are 2-4 ATS in their L6 against Southwest Division teams. Houston are 4-0-1 ATS in their L5, and are 5-0 SU in their L5, and are 6-1 SU in their L7 at home. Plus they're 13-4 SU in their L17 vs. the Nuggets. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NBA ATS Play |

OVER 3.25 Atlanta (13-12-10) take on Columbus (17-9-9) today in MLS action at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. We’re on this over as everything is on the line Sunday night. Columbus took game 1 2-0, while Atlanta rebounded in game 2 to win 4-2. We’re back this over for a few reasons. One goal is going to open this game up. With everything on the line, neither team can afford to just sit back. Both attacks are top tier and should produce a lot of goal scoring chances. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-12-23 | Giants v. Cowboys -16.5 | 17-49 | Win | 100 | 40 h 35 m | Show | |
Cowboys -16.5 The Giants (2-7, 1-4 AWAY) and the Dallas Cowboys (5-3, 3-0 HOME) meet on Sunday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington at 4:25pm. Watch this one on FOX. In Week 9 we saw BigD lose to the Eagles 28-23, a game they really couldn't afford to lose if they want to stay in the NFC East conversation. On the other side the Giants were once again blown out. This time by the cigar smoking Las Vegas Raiders who are suddenly relevant again. The score was 30-6. To add insult to injury the Giants lost their starting QB Daniel Jones to a season ending leg injury. A quick google search to find out how many times we've seen teams cover a 16pt spread in an NFL games tells me 6x since 2019. That's 67%. I like my chances just based off of that. I'm a Cowboys DST fantasy football owner and I'm absolutely salivating this week at the thought of this defense going up against Danny DeVito...err, I mean Tommy Devito. Dallas has won 9 of the L10 vs. NYG, and have already played them 1x this year. Week 1, and the final score was 40-0. They covered the 3. The Giants have lost 6 of their L7, and have only scored 8 TD's in 9 games this year. This is a big number, sure, but worth backing here. Offensively Prescott is also in a good stride right now. He's been putting up big numbers and moving the ball with ease. The Giants defense ranks near the bottom in a lot of defensive categories and are going to have their hands full here. This game could get out of hand if Dallas keeps their foot on the gas, which I anticipate they will. Dallas has the 3rd best scoring offense 27.5 PPG, and 6th best scoring defense (18.5 PPG). I'm expecting offense in this one by Dallas, and lots of it. The Giants are 2-7-1 ATS in their L10, and are 1-4 ATS in their L5 vs. Dallas. On the other side Dallas are 12-6 SU in their L18, and are 11-0 SU in their L11 at home. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play |

11-12-23 | Sam Houston State v. Oklahoma State UNDER 138.5 | 70-85 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 8 m | Show | |
UNDER 138.5 The Oklahoma State Cowboys (0-1, 1-1 ATS) face the Sam Houston Bearkats (1-1, 0-1 ATS) at 3:00 PM ET. The matchup airs on ESPN+. OKSt dropped their first game 64-59 to Abilene Christian. On the other side the SM Bearkats have a win at Pacific and an OT loss to Utah Valley. OKST was brutal at the charity stripe in their first game, and I'm not sure that gets fixed overnight. That will help keep this score lower. Sam Houston and OSU boast two great defenses. Both teams are ranked in the top 65 when it comes to defensive efficiency and they love to play with a slow tempo. This will be the kind of game where possessions are long. Neither team likes to attack early in the shot clock and we’ve seen them both take up a lot of time. Oklahoma State has been a top 20 defense the last 3 years and that will be shown in this one. Expect a slow pace throughout in a game that’s low scoring. Dating back to last year, The total has gone UNDER in 9 of Sam Houston State's L12, and on the other side, the total has gone UNDER in 5 of OKST's L6. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* CBB O/U Play |

11-12-23 | Packers +3.5 v. Steelers | 19-23 | Loss | -115 | 42 h 30 m | Show | |
Packers +3.5 Green Bay (3-5, 4-4 ATS, 1-3 AWAY) and Pittsburgh (5-3, 5-3 ATS, 3-2 HOME) will get it on in a Week 10 game Sunday. Kickoff at Acrisure Stadium will be at 1 pm ET. Series history has the Packers leading 20-16. Their last meeting was Oct 3, 2021, a Steelers 27-17 win in Green Bay. Last week Packers 20-3 over the Rams. Steelers 20-16 over Tennessee. This is too many points, in this spot. The Steelers have been on the fortunate end many times so far despite being outgained and honestly outplayed most of the time. Still, they're finding ways to win and they come in in the midst of a AFC North battle. However, the value sits with Green Bay here in this one. The Packers come in with momentum (Love 76.9% on 20/26 passing) after dominating the Rams from start to finish last week. This has been a season so far of ups and downs for the Packers, but they have shown signs of life throughout on the offensive side. Jordan Love has the ability to make a big play and he will be the difference maker here. Look for him to make timely plays and sustain drives for Green Bay, keeping this Steelers offense off the field. I simply trust the Packers more here. AND, I trust their defense too. Packers RUN-D of late have held opponents to only 2.3 YPC (57 rush. 130yds) in their L2 games. (Zero TD's too) Najee will be in tough. Both teams are battling injuries, but I think it hits the Steelers more on Sunday. The Steelers are that team that could totally do to the Packers this week, what the Packers did to the Rams last week, but with Cody Pickett leading the attack I just can't get on board. They've been outgained on total yards in EVERY game this season. Some trends, Green Bay are 4-1 ATS in their L5 vs. Steelers. Steelers 0-5 ATS in their L5 vs. NFC North teams. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-12-23 | Browns v. Ravens OVER 38 | 33-31 | Win | 100 | 41 h 51 m | Show | |
OVER 38 (5-3, 4-3-1 ATS, 1-2 AWAY) Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens (7-2, 6-3 ATS, 3-1 HOME) will get it on in a Week 10 game Sunday. Kickoff at M&T Bank Stadium will be at 1pm ET. This is obviously a huge AFC North contest. Last week the Browns took care of a pathetic Cardinals team, and I'm inclined to not even talk about it here. They won't shut out Baltimore! The Browns and Ravens have faced off 49 times thru the years, with the Browns emerging victorious in 13 while the Ravens have won 36. This rivalry goes back to 1999. These two have already met 1x this season. The Ravens won that won 28-3 win. (10/1/23). It's obviously why we have such a low total this week. BIG Sidenote, there was no Watson at QB for the Browns in game 1. IMO this total is low, but this is the kind of game Jackson and Watson come out firing away. I'm expecting offense in this one. In big time games, big time players make moments. This is going to be a contest where both QBs want to come out and make it known that they're the best in the division. The Raven offense throttled the Browns defense already once this season and we've seen some issues with Baltimore's defense against mobile QBs. Watson is going to utilize his legs more, but he also is back to 100% too. Look for him to make some huge throws downfield. Both offenses have the capabilities of scoring. Look for a back and forth game in one that should be in the high 40s. In last Sunday's 37-3 rout of the Seahawks, Baltimore put up 515 total yards of offense, with 298 of those coming on the ground. Tony Romo was the color man for CBS in that one and he repeatedly said Baltimore is a Super Bowl team. I have to agree. Their offense is ROLLING right now. Now to get over 38, we just need Cleveland to keep up. Ravens 6th in the NFL in scoring at 26 PPG. Browns 14th at 22 PPG. This one won't be a blowout again, and with some CLE starters injured on defense we could see a big number from the Ravens. (Did I just tip a side bet?) Some trends I like, the total has gone OVER in 4 of Cleveland's last 5 games on the road. 4-0 in their L4. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL O/U Play |

11-12-23 | Titans +1.5 v. Bucs | 6-20 | Loss | -110 | 41 h 38 m | Show | |
Titans +1.5 (3-5) Tennessee Titans take on the (3-5) Tampa Bay Bucs in a Week 10 game Sunday. Kickoff at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa is at 1pm ET. Last week the Titans lost 20-16 to the Steelers in a game they had every chance to win, failing to cover as 3pt dogs. On the other side the Bucs and they're totally outcoached coaching staff with Todd Bowles lost their 4th straight 39-37 to the suddenly OK 4-4 Houston Texans. They did cover as 2.5pt dogs at least. The Titans love playing the Bucs. Over the years they've met 12x, and the Titans have won 10. The last time they met was a 27-23 Titans win on 10/27/19 in Tennessee. In 2015 the Titans won 42-14 in Tampa. They're looking for the hat-trick Sunday. we're playing the visitors here.Tampa Bay has been a rollercoaster of emotions this year. They sometimes look like they could be one of the best in the division, while other times they look lost. After Baker Mayfield made play after play last week, his defense completely let him down in a loss to Houston. The Bucs defense is just too hard to trust in this spot. They have been one of the worst in the league and they struggle slowing just about any team down. The secondary is soft, while they have been gashed by the run game too. The Titans are a balanced attack that can wear teams out. Look for them to just that here and force Tampa Bay into a hole early. The Titans are 4-1 ATS in their L5 against Tampa, are 8-1 SU in their L9 against TB, also they're 4-2 ATS in their L6 games against an opponent in the NFC. On the opposite side this week TB are 1-5 SU in their L6, and they haven't had much luck against AFC teams of late going 0-7 SU in their L7. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play |

11-11-23 | USC v. Oregon OVER 74 | 27-36 | Loss | -110 | 55 h 14 m | Show | |
OVER 74 Every preseason prognosticator said this could be one of the games of the year in the College Football season. I'm hoping that that is still true. What a nice Pac 12 matchup we get Saturday between the USC Trojans (7-3, 2-8 ATS) and who some say are playing like they're the BEST team in the country currently, the Oregon Ducks (8-1, 7-1-1 ATS). In their last game Oregon easily got past CAL 63-19, and on the flip side USC were dismantled by the UW Huskies 52-42 in a battle of Heisman Trophy quarterback candidates Michael Penix Jr., and Caleb Williams. Looking for fireworks? Look no further than this game right here. Williams was seen in tears following the loss to Washington last week, where he put up 42 points in a 52-42 loss. He has rarely been the issue this season as this USC offense has rolled. They move quickly and take plenty of chances deep over the top. USC has hit the over in 17 of the last 18 games as well, adding to the value. Bo Nix is going to go toe to toe with Williams. This Ducks offense sits right up there in every category with the likes of USC and they are going to move the ball with ease. Look for both defenses to have plenty of issues slowing the opposing offense down in a game with a lot of points both ways. The total has gone OVER in 7 of USC's L7 games, and in 5 of their L5 games on the road, and in 4 of USC's L6 games at Autzen. On the other side, the Over has hit in 6 of Oregon's L8 games vs. USC. Scoring, expect LOTS of scoring! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* NCAAF O/U Play |

11-11-23 | Oilers -120 v. Seattle Kraken | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 27 h 1 m | Show | |
Oilers -120 Probable Goalies: Skinner (1-5-1, 3.87 GAA, 0.854 SV%) vs. Grubauer (3-5, 3.01 GAA, 0.900 SV%) Oilers (2-9-1, 1-5 AWAY) vs. Kraken (5-6-3, 2-3 HOME) at 10pm ET Saturday. 12-game slate of NHL games and as the early lines come out I can't say I'm loving much. But you know me, and I can't resist to get a bet down on the Oilers -120 for Saturday. We've done pretty well betting for the Kraken at the right times this year, and against them. Just when you think Edmonton is turning things around, they find a way to do something to put doubts out there. They are now officially at their lowest after losing to the Sharks last time out. Saturday I'm against them, even at home, even with an Oilers team that looks more like the Sharks than a Stanley Cup winning contender. Is Skinner aiming for starting roles these days? In the recent game versus the Sharks, he suffered his third consecutive defeat, bringing his record to 1-5-1 in eight outings (seven of them starts). He holds the top spot, but for how much longer? Calvin Pickard might be eager for a chance to claim that #1 position. Skinner had an outstanding season last year, and I believe the upcoming match against Seattle could be an opportunity for him to bounce back and regain his form. (A Get Right Game if you will). He just needs some goal support from the team that shoots the puck the most in the NHL. (They're #1 34 SPG) Connor McDavid hasn't scored in 7 straight and will look to put an emphasis on finding the back of the net. On the other side, the Kraken have not played to their highest ability here in 2023 so far as they have a lot of gaps on their defense. Edmonton is going to break out here and pick apart the Kraken. Look for them to come out with a purpose and some fire, as they try and push the tempo on them. Last time these two met was 3/18/23 a 6-4 EDM win, before that 1/17/23 a 5-2 EDM win. Surely the Oilers are a better team than we're seeing! This team has to turn it around and they know that as the frustrations are so settled in. After a players only meeting, this is going to be a game where they can do just that. The Oilers are 4-1 SU in their L5 vs. Seattle, and on the other side Seattle are 6-12 SU in their L18, and are 1-5 SU in their L6 vs. Pacific Division teams. Plus the Krak are 0-4 in their L4 Saturday night games. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NHL ML Play |

11-11-23 | Florida v. LSU OVER 64 | 35-52 | Win | 100 | 52 h 9 m | Show | |
Over 64 LSU (6-3, 5-4 ATS) takes on Florida (5-4, 3-6 ATS) on Saturday in one of our favorite matchups during the College Football betting season. Last week's matchups saw the Tigers get taken down by Alabama 42-28. On the other side the Gators fell to Arkansas 39-36. Florida and LSU always give us a fun matchup when they meet. This one should feature a lot of huge plays and a lot of trick plays even. The Tigers have seen the Over hit in all 9 of their games this season. Dating back to last year too, they have hit in 13 straight and 15 of their last 16. The offense runs at a quick pace and throws the ball all over down field. They have to because of how bad this defense is. They rank near the bottom in a lot of defensive categories, as they've been torched at times. Florida has also been up for the challenge. They have hit the over in 5 straight and have given up 41, 43, and 39 points in their previous 3 games. The last 4 games between the two have reached 70 points. We've seen the total go OVER in all of the Gators L5 games, and the OVER has hit in 5 of the L6 Florida matchups vs. SEC teams. LSU has seen the OVER hit in ALL of their L10 matchups, and in 5 of their L5 games vs. Florida. The total has also gone over in ALL of LSU's L7 games at home. I'm on the OVER in this SEC matchup. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* NCAAF O/U Play |

11-11-23 | Ole Miss v. Georgia OVER 58 | 17-52 | Win | 100 | 52 h 13 m | Show | |
OVER 58 Saturday brings another exciting matchup, and a win is essential for the Bulldogs (9-0, 6-0 SEC) in their quest for a third straight national championship. #2 Georgia can secure the SEC East division title by taking on #9 Ole Miss in Athens, Ga. Last week, Georgia secured a 30-21 victory over Missouri, while Ole Miss narrowly escaped with a 38-35 win against Texas A&M. We're playing this Over as Georgia and Ole Miss battle in prime time. This game should produce a lot of scoring. Ole Miss has struggled defensively at times, which includes allowing 35 points last week against the Aggies. Luckily for them, their offense is a high flying attack that can score a lot. Georgia should pick this defense apart for starters and produce a lot of big plays down field. On the other hand, the Bulldogs defense just hasn't been what they are this season. They've struggled against sub par teams even and they're going to have their hands full with Ole Miss. Look for a back and forth game here, where Ole Miss knows they'll have to keep up with this Bulldogs offense. The total has gone OVER in 5 of Georgia's L6, and in 4 of UG's L5 against SEC teams. I'm on the OVER. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NCAAF O/U Play |

11-11-23 | Fresno State v. Kent State UNDER 142 | 69-79 | Loss | -115 | 19 h 50 m | Show | |
UNDER 142 Kent State (1-1) face Fresno State (1-0) on Saturday, at 7:00 PM ET at the Memorial A&C Center. Kent's first two games this year have seen scorelines of 79-58 (Win over Malone), and 113-108 an OT loss to James Madison. Fresno State has only played the one game so far, a 77-66 win over Fresno Pacific. Kent and Fresno here have value on the Under, but we don't have a lot to work with on this one other than the scoring stats so far in this young season. FST is averaging 77PPG, and KST 93PPG, KST allows 85PPG, and FST 66. Both are attempting over 20 3-pointers per game, and both teams are shooting over 76% from the charity stripe. No injuries reported by either team, so we'll have a full compliment of rosters in this one. Fresno State is traveling across the country to play this one as they take on a Kent State side that just played a double overtime thriller against James Madison that saw them blow a 5 point lead with seconds left and even come back from one in the first over time with just 12 seconds left. They've had a few days to recover, but they're going to have some fatigue as this will be their third game this week. That will cause some slower possessions and Fresno State is a very high pressure team. Look for this to be the kind of game where it turns into a grind as it goes on. Some high pressure defense and both teams slowing the pace down. Dating back to last season obviously, the total has gone UNDER in all of FST's L5 games played in November. Also, the UNDER is 7-1 in Golden Flashes last 8 games after allowing more than 90 points in their previous game. This one has gone down by 1/2 a point since opening at 142.5. Backing the UNDER here.

11-11-23 | UL - Lafayette v. Toledo OVER 155 | 78-87 | Win | 100 | 7 h 5 m | Show | |
Over 155 Saturday the 1-0 ULL Ragin' Cajuns take on the 1-0 (1-0 HOME) Toledo Rockets in college hoops action. This one tips off at 7pm ET from Savage Arena. The opening line for this one was at 153.5. Both teams come in 1-0 ATS. These two last met up on 11/20/18, a 77-64 Toledo win that stayed UNDER the 159. We're on the Over here Saturday however, as this game figures to be one where both teams are open to attacking early in the shot clock. Toledo finished 2nd last year in the MAC as their offense was one of the best not just in the conference, but in the country at times. Over the past 3 seasons they have seen their offense rank at 19, 48th, and 5th in the nation. UL can match that tempo as well. They love to get up and down the floor and aren't shy about getting out in transition. We're grabbing two teams here that can shoot the ball very well and put up a lot of points in flurries. This is going to be the kind of game where runs come from both sides in a shootout. If it comes down to FT's at the end we could get 10-15 points in the last minute from the charity stripe to push this. OVER. The total has gone OVER in 10 of ULL's L12 on the road, and the OVER has hit in 7 of Toledo's L8. Plus dating back to 2022 the total has gone OVER in 8 of the Rockets' L8 games played in November. Back the OVER today. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CBB O/U Play |

11-11-23 | Ohio -1.5 v. Cleveland State | 78-82 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 14 m | Show | |
Ohio -1.5 The 1-0 (1-0 ATS) Ohio Bobcats face the 0-1 (1-0 ATS) Cleveland State Vikings on Saturday in college basketball action at 6pm ET. We're on Ohio against Cleveland State on Saturday. At this small number you can play -120 ML, or -1.5 ATS. We're going ATS. The Bobcats have dominated this head to head series as of late and Ohio figures to be one of the teams back in the top of the standings of the Mid American Conference this year. They come in off an 88 point performance to start their season as they love to play with quick pace and can shoot the ball as well as anyone when they're on. The Vikings are poised for a big year, but this is a matchup that simply favors Ohio. They are deep and their ability to shoot the 3 will be the difference maker here. Look for the Bobcats to turn this one into a track meet and put up a lot of pressure early on this Vikings side. We're playing the better team at a good number. Some trends I like, the Bobcats are 9-3 SU in their L12 (dating back to last year of course), and are 6-0 ATS in their L6 vs. the Vikings, plus they're 7-0 SU in their L7 vs. CLEST. On the flip side the Vikings are 1-8 SU in their L9 vs. MAC teams. This won't be a good day for Cleveland State. Back Ohio. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CBB ML Play |

11-11-23 | Utah v. Washington OVER 49.5 | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 49 h 32 m | Show | |
OVER 49.5 Saturday in Seattle, WA we get another NICE Pac 12 matchup between the Utah Utes (7-2, 5-3-1 ATS) and the #5 Washington Huskies (9-0, 4-4-1 ATS). H2H Washington is 7-2 in these two teams' L9. We're playing this Over here. Washington comes in off a 52 point performance in prime time as they took it to the Trojans defense. That bodes well for us here as this total is a bit lower because of how Utah plays. However, don't overlook Utah on offense by any means. They put up 55 last week and have the ability to strike. They should find success against the Washington secondary, that struggled mightily with USC last week. This has the makings of a game where we should see both teams take chances down field and there should be a lot of attacking both ways. The OVER has hit in 4 of the L6 UW games, and we've seen the OVER in 13 of the L20 UW games playing as a favorite on the spread. Plus the OVER has hit in 3 of Washington's L5 at home. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NCAAF O/U Play |

Colorado +10 Saturday at 2pm ET it's a Pac 12 matchup between the Arizona Wildcats (6-3, 8-1 ATS) travelling to Folsom Field in Boulder, CO to take on Prime's Colorado Buffaloes (4-5, 5-3-1 ATS). Last week the Buffs lost 26-19 to the Oregon State Beavers. While Arizona took down the UCLA Bruins 27-10. (Fifita was 25/32 (78%) and we had ARIZONA last week! This week though, we're on the other side. Colorado is the move here. After taking the College football world by storm earlier this season, things have completely tapered off. This is their chance to get things rolling again against a good team. The Buffs have still managed to cover inside Pac-12 play as UCLA and Oregon State were both wins ATS. This is a bit of a let down spot for Arizona too. They beat up on UCLA last week as we backed them at home ATS. This is going to be a game where they will struggle defensively against a Colorado offense that should open up their playbook more. Look for a quick paced game with a very inspired performance from this Colorado team. Colorado are 3-2 in their L5, and 2-2 ATS in their L4. 52% of the public money is coming in on Arizona in this one. Back Colorado. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NCAAF ATS Play |

11-11-23 | Michigan v. Penn State +5.5 | 24-15 | Loss | -110 | 45 h 4 m | Show | |
Penn State +5.5 On Saturday it's a nice BIG 10 clash between the Michigan Wolverines (9-0, 4-4-1 ATS) and the Penn State Nittany Lions (8-1, 7-2 ATS). Penn State has value here, at home. Michigan is in the midst of just so much drama. With all the sign stealing allegations, Michigan has no idea what to expect when it comes to what is going to happen. There could be fines, suspensions, and there is just a lot of distractions. Combine that with going into Penn State's ability to control the tempo of this game and they're going to have Michigan frustrated throughout. They'll feed off their home crowd's energy here and have the potential to shake things up in the standings. Penn State are 13-2-1 ATS in their L16, are 13-1 SU in their L14, plus they're 7-0 SU in their L7 at home, and finally they're 9-1 SU in their L10 games against an opponent in the Big 10.

UNDER 49.5 The Virginia Tech Hokies (4-5, 5-4 ATS) take on the BC Eagles (6-3, 4-5 ATS) Saturday in ACC football action. This one will take place at Alumni Stadium. Hokies lost last game out 34-3 to Louisville. BC grabbed themselves a 17-10 win over Syracuse. This is going to be a very slowly played game both ways in this one. Boston College is leaning on their defense for starters. The Eagles come in winners of 5 straight, while having performances off just 10,14,23,24, and 24 points against in those 5 wins. Their defense is getting stops and forcing turnovers, which has been the difference. The Eagles are going to force this Hokies side into some long third down situations and not allow anything deep. On top of that, the Hokies and Eagles are both going to establish the run games. Expect a slow game on Saturday afternoon. Virginia Tech are 4-1 ATS in their last 5, and are 10-5 SU in their L15 against BC. On the other side BC are 1-4 ATS in their L5 at home. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NCAAF O/U Play |

UNLV -4.5 Gear up for Friday Night Lights, college football style! A thrilling Mountain West conference matchup awaits us. The Wyoming Cowboys (6-3, 5-3-1 ATS) are going up against UNLV (7-2, 8-1 ATS...yes, 8-1 ATS) at 10:45 pm ET, broadcasting live from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, NV. Last week, Wyoming secured a 24-15 win over the CSU Rams, while UNLV dominated New Mexico with a commanding 56-14 victory. We're on UNLV here on Friday night. This is a spot where UNLV is being very undervalued. They are a solid 8-1 ATS this season and come in with 7 wins. They are a perfect 4-0 at home, while the Cowboys come in 0-3 away from home. UNLV has looked good overall this season and at home they've been dominant. Offensively, they have a huge edge. They have posted 40+ points in 6 games this season and they've done it with a quick attack. They can strike at any moment and they're going to push the tempo on this Wyoming defense. They're putting up 424 yards per game at home and this is a nice spot for them. Let's talk stats: Wyoming has struggled, going 1-6 ATS when taking on teams from the MWC West division. In contrast, UNLV is red hot, winning 6 of their last 7 games and remaining undefeated in their last 5 home games. They also hold a strong 5-1 record in their recent clashes with MWC teams.

11-10-23 | Flyers -120 v. Ducks | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
Flyers -120 Probable Goalies: Carter Hart (4-3, 2.52 GAA, 0.913 SV%) vs. Lukas Dostal (5-1, 2.79 GAA, 0.920 SV%) Dropping this to a 6* play. (Hart is sick, pre-game and won't play) Philadelphia (5-7-1, 2-3-1 AWAY) take on the Ducks (7-5, 3-3 HOME) tonight. With Carter Hart confirmed to be starting in Anaheim tonight I'm now all over the Flyers in this one. Phili is going to get a huge boost that is certainly needed right now. Hart missed the last 3 games with a back injury. His boost will be huge for this team as they seem to feed off his energy in net. The Ducks are also due for some regression. This team has played well, but they aren't what the have shown in my opinion. This team is going to find it tough as the season goes on to sustain the offense they have had and they're going to have teams adjust to what they're doing. The Flyers are an experienced team who are going to come at this Ducks defense from many different angles in this spot. The Public is on Phili as well with 84% of initial bets coming in on Phili. Sure they just lost to the Sharks (one of the few teams to do so) but Hart wasn't in net, and I'm a believer. He's got a 4-3 record and is "In Like Flynn" tonight. Morgan Frost will also be back tonight for Phili. They're on the road against Anaheim, a team that's been hot in the NHL lately. However, Anaheim suffered a loss in their last game against the Pens. John Gibson was in net in that one, and as of right now I'm not expecting him in the pipes tonight. Philadelphia have had some pretty good fortune vs. the Ducks of late and are 6-3 SU in their L9 against Anaheim, also Anaheim are 3-12 SU in their L15 at home. (Dating back to last year of course) Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NHL ML Play |

11-10-23 | Hornets v. Wizards OVER 239 | 124-117 | Win | 100 | 6 h 53 m | Show | |
OVER 239 Crazy line movement on most NBA games today. Everyone and their dog is betting OVERS it seems like. I doubt I'll add another NBA game today, but I might! LOL This is one where the movement hasn't been too crazy, so going to pounce. On Friday, Washington (2-5, 3-4 ATS) hosts Charlotte (2-5, 4-3 ATS) at Capital One Arena. The tip-off for this in-season tournament group stage match is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. The Wizards are currently ahead in the season series with a 1-0 lead. Just two days ago, these teams faced off, and there wasn't much defense on display. The Wizards grabbed a W 132-116 in Charlotte, covering as a 2.5-point dog. The Wizards have struggled against Eastern Conference teams, holding a 1-5 record in their seven games. On the other side, the Hornets are 2-5 overall and are hoping to break a two-game losing streak. Injured? Rozier will be unavailable for this game, but everyone else is expected to play. Heading into Friday's matchup, the Hornets have allowed at least 124 points in their last five games, with an average of 123 PPG, which ranks them third highest in the league. We've seen the TOTAL go OVER in all of Charlotte's L5 games, the same with Washington. PLUS, we've seen the OVER hit in 10 of the L10 Wizards games against Eastern Conference foes. Can it continue? YES. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 6* NBA O/U Play |

11-10-23 | Arizona v. Duke OVER 154 | 78-73 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
OVER 154 What a non-conference game we get on the docket on Friday night. This should be an epic early season matchup. In Monday's season openers, Arizona had an impressive victory, defeating visiting Morgan State with a score of 122-59. Meanwhile, Duke secured a convincing win at home, outscoring Dartmouth 92-54. These two teams don't meet frequently. Historically, the Wildcats hold a 5-4 advantage over Duke, with a memorable encounter in the 2001 National Championship, where Duke emerged victorious with an 82-71 score. We're playing the Over here in this one as Duke and Arizona are going to go at it here on Friday night. Arizona play fast and they do not slow down either as the game goes on. They love turning things into a track meet, which is exactly what they're going to do here. They've ranked in the top 10 in total offense the past two seasons and they are not shy about hoisting shots up. Their ability to attack early in the shot clock and get out in transition is one of the best in the nation. Duke meanwhile has built their team with talent once again top to bottom. They're deep and have shooters that can score in flurries. This is going to be the kind of game that is back and forth all night long. Look for plenty of attacks both ways. Some trends in our favor on Friday night. The trend to watch is the total score, as it has gone OVER in 10 of Arizona's L15 games, including 5 consecutive OVERs on the road. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-10-23 | Radford v. Marshall -3 | 66-62 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 48 m | Show | |
Marshall -3 Marshall (1-0) comes into this one on Friday night ready to keep their winnin' ways going against an upstart Radford (0-1) who dropped their first game of the year. Last game out Marshall took down Queens NC 89-73 in a game that wasn't relatively close. Radford lost out to Charlotte 63-56. Marshall is a much better offensive team here on Friday night. The Thundering Herd come in after taking it to Queens in their opener as they dominated in every facet of the game. They came out with a purpose and overwhelmed them on both ends of the floor. Marshall is led by Kamdyn Curfman and Kevon Voyles. Voyles put up 18 in the opener and grabbed 6 rebounds while dishing out 5 assists. This Marshall team is deep and has a lot of weapons that can cause issues for opposing defenses. Look for them to overwhelm here on Friday night as they have a clear edge. Radford hasn't been doing so well lately, with a 1-7 record in their L8 games against Marshall. They've also struggled, going 1-5 in their L6 games against teams from the Sun Belt. On the flip side, Marshall has been a pretty good ATS team to bet on dating back to last season, winning 13 out of their L17 games. They've been particularly dominant against teams from the Big South, boasting an impressive 18-1 record in their L19. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* CBB ATS Play |

11-09-23 | Hawks -3.5 v. Magic | 120-119 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 7 m | Show | |
Hawks -3.5 The Hawks (4-3, 3-4 ATS) take on the Magic (4-3, 5-2 ATS) tonight...IN MEXICO CITY! This is a 9:40ET tip-off. I couldn't lay off NBA tonight. I tried, I just couldn't. Late add here. Magic are banged up. No Gary Harris, Kevon Harris, Wendell Carter Jr, and Fultz will be a GTD, and if he even does suit up won't likely see anywhere near his usual minutes. Wesley Matthews is OUT for ATL. This is a neutral court game so I can't throw the NBA home/away trends at you in this one...sorry. ATL #2 in PPG with 122. 11th in FG% and 21st in 3PT%. (All numbers better than Orlando) Orlando is the better defensive club no doubt, but ATL will own the boards tonight, and that will all lead to a ton of second chance buckets. The L3 times these two have played ATL has won 2-1. ATL are 4-1 SU in their L5, and 7-3 ATS in their L10 vs. ORL. Plus they're 9-2 SU in their L11 vs. ORL. On the other side ORL are 1-4 SU in their L5 vs. Eastern Conf. teams. ATL went 3-1 vs. ORL in 2022/23, and they've taken 9 of the L11. Before ATL lost to OKC on Monday they'd won 4 in a row. I think they get back on track tonight by 6+. Back the Hawks -3.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NBA ATS Play |

11-09-23 | Panthers +3.5 v. Bears | 13-16 | Win | 100 | 18 h 4 m | Show | |
Panthers +3.5 I backed the Panthers two weeks ago vs. Houston and I'm going back to the well with them on Thursday night in a matchup I feel 8* confident about. We're grabbing 3.5 points in a game I could see Carolina winning outright. The Panthers (1-7) and Bears (2-7) are set to clash in Week 10 on Thursday Night Football at Soldier Field with an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff (Prime Video). When it comes to ATS stats, the Panthers stand at 1-6-1, while the Bears are at 3-5-1. Unfortunately, last week the Panthers couldn't ride the wave of their first win and stumbled at home, suffering a 27-13 loss to the Colts. The game took a turn for the worse as Young threw two Pick-6s, rookie errors that cost them dearly. On the other hand, the Bears faced a 24-17 L at the hands of the Saints. Justin Fields isn't cleared to play on Thursday so it will be Tyson Bagent starting again for the Bears. While Bagent may have a slight edge over Fields (arguably), his average pass completion of 6.3 yards suggests he's not tasked with much. The major concern revolves around his turnovers, with 8 (six interceptions and two lost fumbles) occurring in a mere 14 quarters of play. I also highly doubt Coach Matt Eberflus of the Bears can craft a winning strategy this week, with a record of 5-21 in Chicago and only 1-9 in close games. Frank Reich has the upper hand. In recent head-to-head matchups, the Bears have had the upper hand, winning five out of the last six encounters. The most recent meeting in 2020 saw the Bears emerge victorious with a 23-16 win in Charlotte, and their last face-off at Soldier Field in 2017 resulted in a 17-3 Bears win. Weather will be in the low 50's, no precip, and winds around 10mph. Taking a look at some key trends for this matchup, Chicago has had a tough time lately. They have a 4-12-1 ATS record in their last 17 games and a dismal 2-17 SU record in their last 19 outings. Moreover, when playing at home, they've only managed to win 1 out of their last 11 games. Back the Panthers ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* NFL ATS Play |

11-09-23 | Virginia v. Louisville -20 | 24-31 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 9 m | Show | |
Louisville -20 Thursday night it's Virginia (2-7, 6-3 ATS) taking on Louisville (8-1, 5-3-1 ATS). We’re on Louisville, laying the number at home.This team has quietly been a force at times this year and at home they’re absolutely dominate. They come into Thursday 5-0 at home this season and they actually haven’t lost on this field since September of 2022. The Cardinals offense is going to overpower this Cavaliers defense in every which way.The Cards put up 34 on Va Tech last week as they run a balanced attack that has opposing defenses guessing a lot. Look for Louisville to put the pressure on early and keep their foot on the gas. They’re at their best when they play with tempo too, which will have Virginia all over the place. In my NCAA Football betting analysis, I've noticed some important trends. Virginia has struggled lately, winning just 2 out of their last 12 games and losing 16 out of 20 on the road. On the flip side, Louisville has been strong, going 4-1-1 against the spread in their last 6 games and winning 9 out of their last 10 overall. Additionally, they've been solid at home, covering the spread in their last 10 home games. The Cards haven't lost at home since Sept 16, 2022. LVille has their eyes set on the ACC championship game, and they have to get past UVA to keep that dream alive. There's motivation in spades on Thursday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-09-23 | Canucks -108 v. Senators | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 18 h 32 m | Show | |
Canucks -108 Probable Goalies: Demko (7-2, 1.60 GAA, 0.948 SV%) vs. Korpisalo (3-4, 3.38 GAA, 0.901 SV%) Canadian teams facing off against each other always bring their A-game. It's a Canadian thing. They view fellow Canadian teams as their fiercest rivals, and the Ottawa versus Van City matchup is no exception. While these meetings are infrequent, they tend to ignite some excitement. Vancouver boasts a historical record of 34-19-2-3 against Ottawa, with a decent road record of 15-11-1-1. Recent history also favors the Canucks, with a 6-3-1 record in their last ten clashes against the Senators, including 3 wins, 1 loss, and 1 tie in their last five meetings. Canucks netminder Thatcher Demko is playing like a man possessed. He continued his impressive streak by turning away 40 of 42 shots in Monday's 6-2 W over the Oilers. He has won 6 games in a row, consistently limiting opponents to 2 goals or fewer throughout the streak, allowing only 7 overall. He now boasts a 7-2 record with a 1.61 GAA and a .948 sv% after nine starts. He's been the starter for four consecutive games. Vancouver has been on fire lately, winning 7 out of their last 8 games. When facing Ottawa, they've been even more impressive, winning 13 out of their last 18. Their success on the road is evident too, as they've secured wins in 6 of their last 8 away games. On the road against Ottawa, Vancouver has managed to win 6 out of their last 9. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* NHL ML Play |

11-09-23 | Wild v. Rangers OVER 6 | 1-4 | Loss | -120 | 17 h 18 m | Show | |
OVER 6 Probable Goalies: Fleury (3-2-1, 2.68 GAA, 0.899 SV%) vs. Domingue (NO NHL Stats) Minnesota comes into this one 5-5-2 on the season, while the Rangers are one of the NHL's top dogs right now sporting a 9-2-1 record. In the most recent match, the Wild secured a 4-2 victory against NYI, with Fleury making 27 saves on Tuesday. He's been in the net for four out of the last five games, recording a 2-1-1 record and a .915 save percentage during that time. This comes as Gustavsson struggles to find his form early in the season. Big question marks for Thursday night though. What is going on with the goaltenders in New York? Nobody is healthy right now. We've learned the starting goalie on Thursday could very well be none other than Louis Domingue. Who? Ya, we have no clue either. On Wednesday, Domingue received a call-up to join the Rangers. His short stint with AHL Hartford suggests that Shesterkin's return for Thursday's home game against Minnesota, following a lower-body injury, remains uncertain. Additionally, Quick's recent upper-body injury has made him day-to-day. If neither Quick nor Shesterkin can play, Domingue could find himself starting. No matter who is in net for NYR they can still put up goals with the best of them. As evidenced by a 5-3 home win on Tuesday over DET, where they scored 4x in the second period. Panarin's line is flying right now (with Trocheck, and LaFreniere) and they're not even the top line. (Rangers have two top lines by the way, and a nice grinder line with Bonino and Kakko). The total has gone OVER in 9 of Minnesota's L11, and the total has gone OVER in 5 of the Rangers' L6 when taking on the Wild. The Rangers have 19 points thru their first 12 games. They're flying. We'll take the low total here Thursday. Queue the OVER. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NHL O/U Play |

11-09-23 | James Madison v. Kent State UNDER 149.5 | 113-108 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 46 m | Show | |
UNDER 149.5 Both teams come into this one off of wins in their first games of the season. Kent State is 1-0 at home, JM is 1-0 Away. Tip-off time is 7 pm ET and will air on ESPN+. The Golden Flashes started strong this season with a 79-58 victory over Malone in their home opener, making it 23 consecutive wins at home. JMU had an exciting start, winning 79-76 in overtime against the #4 MSU Spartans. We’re on this under for a few reasons here. For starters, JMU comes in off a huge win over Michigan State, on the road, to start their season. This seems like it could be a bit of a let down spot for them as they will deal with a physical bunch on this Kent State side. The Golden Flashes were one of the best not just in the MAC, but in the nation on the defensive end last year. This is the kind of game that should turn into a grind. Look for both teams to pick up the intensity and for there to be a lot of difficult shots both ways. Kent State has a 3-2 lead in their head-to-head series against JM. Their most recent clash happened on November 21, 2021, with the Flashes winning 74-69. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* CBB ATS Play |

11-08-23 | Blazers +8.5 v. Kings | 118-121 | Win | 100 | 4 h 8 m | Show | |
Trail Blazers +8.5 Some late night West Coast NBA gambling action to wrap up our evening. We're on the Blazers ATS tonight. Both teams recently lost their last games. Portland lost 112-100 at home to the Grizzlies on Sunday to split their two game H2H matchup, while the Kings suffered a 122-97 defeat to Houston on Monday in which they're were totally taken apart. What has happened to the Kings without their do-everything man De'Aaron Fox? He'll be back soon, but not soon enough. Portland won't have Scoot Henderson and is still missing Simons and also are down backup center Robert Williams III as well now. They're a bit banged up, but thankfully the Kings aren't in great shape either (Fox & Lyles). I like where PDX is going. They're young, sure, but I'm happy with where PDX is right now, they're improving every game, they've got young studs (soon), a good mix of vets, and they play with desire and hustle, it's all you can ask for. It helps that Ayton has picked his game up too. He's averaging 30MPG, 10PPG, 13RPG and chipping in with timely blocks, and the occasional steal. He had a career high 23 boards just the other day too, and he's grabbing his share of double-double's early in the season. Portland are 7-2 ATS in their L9 games on the road. On the other side, Sacramento are 1-4 SU in their L5 games, and they're 3-7 ATS in their L10 games at home, and finally they're 3-8 in their L11 vs. Western Conference teams.

Los Angeles Clippers -4.5 We're on the Clippers here, laying the number on the road. Things didn't go as planned for James Harden Clippers debut as they were trounced to the Knicks. This is a prime bounce back spot now as they come into play here against a Nets team that has had a lot of issues. Brooklyn is 0-3 at home for starters as they have struggled to find any sort of consistency. Their issues on the defensive end are going to be a huge problem against this Clippers attack. Los Angeles is going to right the ship as Harden makes this team better no matter what you hear from the outside noise. Look for Los Angeles to push the tempo and force the Nets into some tough transition defensive spots. The Nets are 3-9 SU in their L12, and are 0-6 SU in their L6 at home, finally they're 1-6 ATS in their last 7 against Western Conference teams. Good Luck, Razor Ray Wednesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

Pacers -6 Jazz (2-6, 0-4 AWAY, 3-5 ATS) have lost 5 of 6, and they've only got 2 wins this season from 8 games. They're averaging 111PPG (16th), and are 24th in FG% at 45.1%. The Jazz have had the doors blown off of them through their first two games of this roadtrip. They have looked awful on both ends of the floor as it seems like Utah just simply doesn't have the firepower to keep up with the teams in this league so far. They come in ranking near the bottom (29th) in total defense and have to deal with a Pacers team that loves to play quick and up tempo. Indiana (4-3, 3-2 HOME, 4-3 ATS) comes into this game scoring 121 points in each of their L3. They're the #1 scoring team in the NBA averaging 124PPG. They're 4th in FG% 49.55. Utah are going to have their hands full all night long here against this Indiana side that ranks near the top in a lot of offensive categories. Look for Indiana to put their foot on the gas and take advantage of this Utah defense that just struggles so much to get back in transition. Indiana are 8-4 SU in their L12 games when playing at home against the Jazz. On the other side Utah are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games, are 1-5 SU in their L6, and are 0-7 SU in their last 7 games on the road. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* NBA ATS Play |

Canisius +14 We're on Canisius on Wednesday night as they go into Syracuse here. The Orange already do have a game under their belts, but it was far from pretty on the defensive end. They allowed 72 points to New Hampshire in a game where the Wildcats just didn't go away. Syracuse struggled on the defensive end as they allowed a lot of looks at the rim. They got themselves into some foul trouble as well in the win, which is something they have to avoid here. Canisius is going to attack this Orange zone and look to open things up for their outside shooters. Dating back to last year of course, Canisius are 7-0 ATS in their L7 games, and are 5-2 SU in their L7 games. Plus they're 4-2 ATS in their L6 games against Syracuse. On the other side Syracuse are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games, and they're 1-6 SU in their L6. This game should be close throughout, helping them keep it within the number. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

FAU -5.5 FAU is going to have quite the spotlight on them heading into this season. They made their improbable run last year in the NCAA Tournament and now open the season as one of the best in the nation. FAU come into this one holding the early season #9 ranking in the nation. They're a preseason final 4 pick yet again after that remarkable Final 4 run last season. They're returning all 5 starters and look poised to do great things. They went 35-4 in 2022/23 and have a new home in the AAC after moving from the CUSA. In the previous season, Loyola-Chicago switched from the Missouri Valley Conference to the Atlantic 10. The Ramblers had a tough year, with a 10-21 overall record and a disappointing 4-14 performance in the A-10. Can they improve in 2023/24? They'll need to start quick on Wednesday. This is the kind of game from the outset where FAU can show the nation they still have it. They're going to be tested all year long as they'll have a huge target on their backs, but that won't be something they shy away from. This FAU side showcased last year with this starting 5 that they can attack the rim and shoot it just as well as anyone else in the nation. Look for some inspired play here and for them to come out with a lot of fire, knowing they want to get off to a quick start to the season. FAU are 5-1 ATS in their L6, and are 11-1 SU in the L12. On the other side, LC are 1-5 ATS in their L6, and are 1-5 SU in their L6. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* CBB ATS Play |

11-08-23 | Bowling Green v. Kent State UNDER 40.5 | 49-19 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
UNDER 40.5 MACTION time again tonight. BG comes into this one 5-4 SU (5-4 ATS, 2-3 AWAY) in 2023, on the other side Kent St. are 1-8 and (2-6-1 ATS, 1-2 HOME). Head to head these two are 5-5 SU in their L10. They're also both 5-5 ATS vs. each other in the L10. BG took down Ball State last week 24-21. While Kent State got taken down by Akron 31-27. Weather tonight will be in the low 50's, light winds, and no rain. MAC weather. The last two times these teams have played we've seen the UNDER hit. Now, granted the UNDER was in the 50's both times, but, that was a different Kent State team than this year's dumpster fire. Kent State is going to come into this game with ZERO confidence. They’re ranked 2nd to last in the entire FBS and blew a 17 point lead to Akron last week. Offensively, they have no spark. They’re far too conservative and that also comes from their inability to make big plays. Bowling Green is similar on the offensive side. They do not move the ball nor do they have the capacity to sustain drives. This is going to be the kind of game where both teams ground and pound. Look for a lot of clock chewing and very minimal scoring chances. The total has gone UNDER in 4 of the Falcons L6 games on the road, plus the UNDER has hit in 6 of the L9 for BG vs. MAC teams. On the other side, the total has gone UNDER in 6 of Kent State's L9 against Bowling Green. Back the UNDER. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 6* CFB O/U Play |

11-07-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Coyotes -102 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 19 h 26 m | Show | |
Coyotes ML Probable Goalies: Philipp Grubauer (2-5, 3.01 GAA, 0.902 SV%) vs. Connor Ingram (3-1, 2.39 GAA, 0.919 SV%) The Coyotes (5-5-1, 3-2 HOME) face off against the Kraken (4-6-2, 2-3-2 AWAY) at Mullett Arena on Tuesday at 9:00 PM ET. These two teams are near the bottom of the standings, but only one seems fired up lately, and that's Arizona. The Kraken suffered a 6-3 loss at home to Calgary on Nov. 4th, which, looking back, was a questionable pick by me (LOL). Meanwhile, the Yotes took a 5-3 loss at home on November 4 against the Jets, who are no slouches themselves. It's a showdown of struggling squads, with Arizona showing more spark. In tonight's NHL game, the Coyotes are the favorites with odds at -102, while the Kraken are the underdogs at -110. The total line for the game is set at 6.5 goals. Don't bother looking at the PUCKLINE for this one. Odds are brutal. Grubauer faced 29 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Flames. He did alright in the first and second periods, but things went downhill from there. While he's only allowed 4 goals in a game twice this year, his performance wasn't impressive. He appeared a bit off his game. There's a chance we'll see Joey Daccord in net on Tuesday in Arizona. Daccord put up a solid performance with 42 saves in a 3-2 OT loss to Carolina on Thursday. So far this season, Daccord has a 2-0-2 record with a 2.83 GAA and a .910 save percentage. On the flip side, Ingram has been on fire this week. He's secured back-to-back wins and allowed just 3 goals on 60 shots over 2 games. The Yotes average 3.2GPG, to Seattle's 2.5GPG. Yotes are 10th in the NHL at GAA (2.90), the Kraken are 21st (3.417) This is a bounce back spot. Arizona has been good through the start of the season as they have opened a few eye with their ability to attack. They seemed to struggle on Sunday in their 5-3 loss to Winnipeg and now they get a Seattle team that just hasn't been themselves. They come in off a loss to the Flames, allowing 6 goals in the loss. The Kraken have been a debacle on the defensive end here in the beginning of this season and they're going to have their hand full with this attack. Look for Arizona to come at them from many different angles push the tempo on them. Seattle will be on their heels all night long in this one. The Kraken have blown a lead 10 games in a row. With Arizona coming into this matchup the lesser of two evils I'm siding with the home team at -102 odds on Tuesday. Some trends to note, the Yotes are 7-1 in their L8 as a favorite. The Kraken are 4-9 SU in their L13, and 2-8 SU in their L10 on the road, and are 1-6 in their L7 vs. Western conference teams. Back the Yotes on the ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* NHL ML Play |

Auburn vs. Baylor Over Tonight, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, it's a neutral site matchup. Auburn faces Baylor at Sanford Sports Pentagon, airing on ESPN with a 9pm ET tip-off. Baylor holds a slim 2-point favorite status over Auburn, and the over/under stands at 143.5 for the game. ML straight up bettors will get Auburn +115, and Baylor is -130. We're playing this Over here as this should be a very up tempo kind of game. Auburn has been notorious for playing so quickly in the past. The Tigers have been one of the best scoring teams in the SEC in the past season as they love to push the issue on opposing teams. They were 13-5 to the over in away situations last year and it figures to be a similar fate here in 2023-2024. Baylor also can match their tempo too. The Bears return some of their top scorers and hit the transfer portal by picking up a Toledo transfer who averaged nearly 20 points per game last season. This game would feature a lot of transition buckets and quick attacks, benefitting this over. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 5 of Auburn's L5 games, also the total has gone OVER in 4 of Baylor's L6. We're backing the OVER tonight (145). Hop on! Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Ohio -7 (6-3, 4-5 ATS, 2-2 AWAY) Ohio take on the (3-6, 5-4 ATS, 1-3 HOME) Buffalo tonight. This one kicks off at 7:30pm ET, from UB Stadium in Buffalo, NY. You can watch this one on ESPN2. Ohio is a 7pt favorite in this one, and the O/U total line is set at 44. If you're a moneyline (straight-up bettor) you'll see the dogs (Buffalo) at +224 ML odds, and Ohio is -250. We all need more MACtion! Back the road team tonight. Ohio -7. This play is of the 7* variety. Both teams come into this one off of losses. OHIO took the L against Miami of Ohio 30-16 at home. On the other side Buffalo was taken apart by Toledo 31-13. Tonight's weather will be in the 40's at kickoff, no rain, 10mph winds. The last time these two matched up was 1/11/22 a 45-24 Ohio win. Even though he's Canadian...Kurtis Rourke is going to be the difference maker here. The OU QB has thrown for 1656 yards this year and 10 touchdowns thus far. He's the kind of playmaker who can strike quickly and isn't afraid to put his head down and take off running. He is such a threat with both his arm and legs and he should pick apart this Buffalo defense that has been very suspect this season. The Bulls have struggled with mobile QBs and they're going to have a huge mismatch. Cole Snyder isn't as big of a playmaker as Rourke and we'll see that here on Tuesday night. Did I mention Ohio is 7th in the NATION on defense allowing only 15.6PPG too? Ok...I just did. Buffalo is 99th... 29PPG. Ohio is also first in scoring defense in the MAC, and Ohio has more INT's than passing TD's allowed. Some trends to note, Ohio has taken 4 of the L7 in this series. Ohio are 14-4 SU in their L18 games, and are 4-2 ATS in their L6 against Buffalo. Plus they're 4-2 SU in their L6 games against Buffalo, and are 10-3 SU in their L13 games vs. MAC teams. On the other side Buffalo are 3-6 SU in their L9, 0-4 in their L4 as a favorite, and are 1-5 ATS in their L6 at home. Tonight, once again, I'm on the team with the better QB. I'm putting my faith in Rourke to get the job done tonight. Back the Bobcats ATS in Tuesday's MACtion. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 7* CFB ATS Play |

11-07-23 | Lightning v. Canadiens OVER 6.5 | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 36 m | Show | |
OVER 6.5 Probable Goalies: Matt Tomkins (0-2, 3.59 GAA, 0.891 SV%) vs. Jake Allen (3-1-1, 2.72 GAA, 0.927 SV%) The Lightning (5-3-4) take on the Habs tonight (5-4-2) in Montreal. TB come into this one 7th in the EAST, while the Habs are 9th. Puck drop is at 7pm ET at the Bell Center in Montreal QC, Canada. Betting odds have the TOTAL set at 6.5 (-110). The Habs are +135 home dogs, the Lightning are -159 ML favorites. Tomkins made 24 saves out of 27 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Blue Jackets on Thursday, with Columbus scoring the final goal into an empty net. While Tomkins didn't have a bad game in his second NHL start, the Lightning offense struggled. On the flip side, Allen stopped 32 of 35 shots in the Canadiens' 3-2 loss to the Yotes on Thursday. It was Allen's first loss, and he had a solid performance. He's expected to share starting duties with Sam Montembeault going forward. We're expecting a lot of goal chances here. The Lightning will go with their backup goalie, while Montreal continues to struggle on the defensive side. This game figures to be wide open. The Lightning just dealt with a hard fought game on Monday night and they're going to see Montreal come at them with a lot of speed. The Habs will try to hit them on the counter attack, which should also result in the Lightning getting some odd man rushes the other way. Look for both teams to have plenty of scoring chances here and attack the opposing net, in what will be a fast paced kind off game from the start. With Tampa playing the second of a back to back and having to start their backup goalie (Tomkins) I'm expecting goals on Tuesday. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 5 of Tampa Bay's L7 played in November, also, the total has gone OVER in 10 of Montreal's L15, and finally the total has gone OVER in 4 of the Habs L5 at home. Back the OVER. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL O/U Play |

11-07-23 | Ball State v. Northern Illinois -9.5 | 20-17 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 11 m | Show | |
NIU -9.5 Northern Illinois (4-5, 4-4-1 ATS) faces a familiar opponent as they take on Ball State (2-7, 4-5 ATS) on Tuesday at Brigham Field at Huskie Stadium in DeKalb, IL, in a MAC showdown. You can catch the action on the CBS Sports Network. The latest betting odds show Northern Illinois as the favorite with a -10 spread. For those looking at the moneyline, Northern Illinois is at -372, while Ball State is at +287 for straight up bets. The over/under total line is set at 43 points. In their previous game, the Huskies battled Central Michigan and suffered a 37-31 loss, while the Cardinals fell short, losing 24-21 to the Bowling Green Falcons. Looking at their historical matchups, the Huskies hold a 25-23-2 record in the all-time series but have dropped three of the last 4. I'm on NIU -9.5 on Tuesday night. NIU can smell a bowl game. They need this game much more than Ball State does. Sit back, relax and enjoy the MACtion folks! NIU had rattled off 3 straight wins before seeing their comeback fall just short against the Chips last week. They dug themselves too big of a hole and were unable to finish a frantic comeback late. This team will turn back to their defense, who will rebound here. During their 3 game winning streak, they allowed performances of 14,13, and 13 in those wins. Ball State's offense has been an absolute struggle all season. They've been far too inconsistent to score here and they are going to struggle mightily with this pressure NIU brings. Look for the Huskies to rear back and blitz all night long, forcing sacks and some bad decisions from this Ball State passing game. Some trends to note, NIU are 6-1 SU in their L7 when playing at home against Ball St. On the other side, Ball State are 1-5 SU in their L6, are 2-9 ATS in their L11 vs. NIU, and are 3-11 SU in their L14 vs. NIU. Lastly, they're 0-7 in their L7 on the road. Back the Huskies on Tuesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CFB ATS Play |

11-06-23 | Akron v. South Dakota State -1.5 | 81-75 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 35 m | Show | |
South Dakota State -1.5 Akron comes into this one (3rd in the MAC in 2022/23) and SD State was (2nd In the Summit). This one tips off at 9:15pm ET from the FROST Arena in Brookings, South Dakota. Odds favor the Jackrabbits by -1.5. The total is set at 141.5. SDST is a -120 favorite on the ML. This is a revenge spot for South Dakota State as they welcome in Akron to start their season. The Zips and Jackrabbits battled into overtime last year as Akron escaped with a 1 point win at home. 81-80. South Dakota State blew a lead late in that game and that isn't one they're going to forget heading into this matchup. SDST covered as 3.5 dogs. Akron went just 5-6 on the road last year as the MAC runners-up return a lot of good pieces. However, this is the kind of game and team that can match their intensity and ability to shoot the 3. South Dakota State will score a lot of quick flurries of points and they can shoot the 3 similar to Akron can. This just isn't a good matchup for the Zips to start their campaign. Look for South Dakota State to overwhelm them in this one and get out to an early lead that see them put their foot on the gas. Some trends to note, Akron are 2-4 ATS in their L6, and are 3-7 ATS in their L10 against an opponent in the Summit League conference. South Dakota State are 4-2 ATS in their L6, and are 8-2 SU in their L10 games. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* CBB ATS Play |

Chargers -3 Jets (4-3, 2-2 HOME, 4-2-1 ATS) vs. Chargers (3-4, 1-2 AWAY, 2-4-1 ATS) ATS: Jets +3, Chargers -3, O/U: 41, ML: Jets +140, Chargers -155 Last Meeting: Jets 28 Chargers 34 (11/22/20) Jets L10 - 4-6 SU, Chargers L10 5-5 SU Monday night football wraps up the week for us, and we're hoping it's been a successful weekend for you! Backing the road team here on Monday. The Chargers are entering a favorable part of their schedule, which this is the time for them to turn things up. They will see a Jets team that has been very inconsistent and is dealing with a few key injuries to their offensive line. That bodes well for us as the Jets lean on their run game to be successful. The Chargers should be able to pick apart this offensive line and get a lot of havoc in the backfield. Combine that with Justin Herbert playing better as of late and there is a lot of value on this side. Herbert has been battling a broken thumb on his non throwing hand. He's now played a few weeks with it and has the experience with it. He will have a field day with this Jets secondary and will have a lot of big plays over the top. Some trends to note, Chargers are 4-0 ATS as a road favorite of 3-10, and the Chargers are 4-1 SU in their L5 games against the Jets, and they're 4-1 SU in their L5 games when playing on the road against the Jets. The Jets are 4-9 SU in their L13 games, and are 3-8 SU in their L11 games played in November. While the Jets may have won 13-10 over the Giants are they a team that will be able to trade punches with the Chargers on MNF? (Let me answer that rhetorical ? for you) No chance in hell. The Bolts catch another break on their schedule here to get right. Last week it was a 30-13 blowout of da Bears, now they get a team that's not much better in the Jets. Expect another 300 yard game from Herbert (who says his thumb is getting better each week), plus 2-3 TD's. Ekeler will get his as well (something to the tune of 110 yards rushing and 8-9 receptions for 70-80 yards. This one could be ugly folks. Chargers -3. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NFL ATS Play |

11-06-23 | Celtics v. Wolves +4.5 | 109-114 | Win | 100 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
Wolves +4.5 The Timberwolves (3-2, 3-2 ATS, 3-0 HOME) try to extend their home dominance on Monday night against the team with the best record in the Association thus far in this young season. Minnesota has a three-game home winning streak to protect. The Boston Celtics (5-0, 2-1-2 ATS, 1-0-2 on the road) come to town. Tip off is at the Target Center, at 8:00 PM ET on BSN and NBCS-BOS. The Celtics are favored by 4. The Over/Under is 227.5. Straight up Moneyline bettors will see Boston -176, Minnesota +149. These two last met on 3/15/23 a 104-102 Celts W. They have 1 common opponent this season. MIN defeated MIA 106-90. BOS defeated MIA 119-111. The Timberwolves are valuable at this number. Minnesota catches Boston in a good spot here. The Celtics are unbeaten but it’s put a target on their backs early in the season. Minnesota has been no slouch either. They’ve shown they’re going to be a force in the west with their ability to score. We’ve seen they’ve had little issue when it comes to attacking. They spread the floor and put together some quick attacks. Combine their ability to work in the paint with their top shooters and this is the kind of game where they can give the Celtics a lot of issues. Defense wins championships, and this is the best defense taking on the best offense. I'm going to side with the defense tonight. Especially since the Celts have travelled from NY on Sunday. If you're feeling like a side bet put some on the Wolves ML too. Some trends to note, Minnesota are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games, and 4-0 ATS at home in their L4. I like the Wolves at home tonight to keep this number close. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NBA ATS Play |

11-06-23 | Bruins v. Stars OVER 5.5 | 3-2 | Loss | -106 | 20 h 47 m | Show | |
OVER 5.5 Probable Goalies: Ullmark (4-1-1, 2.30 GAA, .0926 SV%) vs. Oettinger (5-1-1, 1.97 GAA, 0.938 SV%) Monday night in Dallas, TX, catch the NHL action as the Stars (7-3, 3-1 HOME) face off against the Bruins (9-2, 4-1 AWAY) at 8:00 PM ET. ESPN+ and NESN will cover the game. The betting odds favor Dallas (-133) while Boston sits at +122 on the moneyline. The Over/Under is set at 5.5. I'm expecting the TOTAL TO GO OVER in this one, and before I tell you why let's cover the goalies. Which to be honest are both the reasons this O/U is set at 5.5. In their recent games, Boston lost 5-4 to the Red Wings, and Dallas suffered a 2-0 defeat against the Canucks. In that game against Van City, Oettinger made 26 saves out of 28 shots but couldn't secure the win. His four-game winning streak came to an end. Despite getting some rest at the beginning of the season, the former Boston U goalie is expected to be in net on Monday. This is a huge matchup early in the season, and it will be a big test for this Stars team looking to make waves in 2023/24. On the other side in Saturday's game, Ullmark faced 35 shots but had a tough night, allowing 5 goals. It was a rough outing for him, with both the shots against and goals allowed being the most this season. Before this most recent set back he was coming off of a 35-save performance in a 3-2 OT win over Florida. Swayman in net is looking likely for tonight. He made 33 saves in a 3-2 shootout win Thursday over Toronto. He is undefeated, but he's not invincible. This game should feature a lot of scoring chances both ways. Dallas has started this season off with a bang and they’ve done it with offense. Prior to their last game, the Stars had combined for 13 goals in just 3 games. This Dallas attack is tough to stop. They’re relentless when it comes to putting pucks on net. They’re at their best when they pepper the goal and they crash in. Boston plays a similar style as they aren’t shy about shooting the puck. With the scorers both teams have here, this should be a game where scoring chances come. Both teams come into this one rested and both have some pretty good snipers on their teams. I think we'll see offense on Monday in this big matchup of conference heavyweights. This total is too low for teams of this caliber. Some trends to note, Over is 6-1 in Bruins L7 games as an underdog of +110 to +150, and the Over is 5-1 in Boston's L6 games as a road dog of +110 to +150. I'm backing the OVER 5.5 on Monday night. OVER 5.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NHL O/U Play |

H2H matchups of late between these two: 1/4/23 LAL 112 MIA 109. 12/28/22 MIA 112 LAL 98.Lakers are a +1.5pt dog, the O/U is set at 222.5. Injury Report: MIA - Hampton OUT, Jovic ?, Martin OUT, Butler (Prob.) LAL: Hayes OUT, Hachimura OUT, Schifino OUT, Vincent OUT, Vanderbilt OUT. I'm on the Lakers tonight. Afternoon day of game add-on here as we're really watching injury reports with the NBA early in the season here. It's really hard to cap NBA games right when the lines come out. The more information we can get throughout the day the better. The Lakeshow were embarrassed in Orlando and will want to right the ship here on Monday in a city where LeBron will have extra incentive to put on a show. As for Miami, we can hardly take anything from their two wins. They were against teams we hardly expect to be talking points in 3-4 months. The Lakers aren't good in the 1st qtr, the Heat aren't good in the 4th, and I think you can now see why the spread on this game is so close. It's going to come down to a few blocks, steals and boards in this one. Lakers score more PPG, have a better FT%, and rebound on the defensive glass much better. They're also 2nd in the league in blocks! Some trends to note, Heat are 0-5 ATS in their L5 home games, 0-5 ATS in their L5 as a home fav, 1-4 in their L5, 1-4 in their L5 ATS. The Lakers are 3-2 in their L5 SU. Backing the Lakers today. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* NBA ATS Play |

Oregon -5 We're on Oregon (4th in Pac 12) vs. Georgia (11th in SEC) here as the College Basketball season tips off. This one tips off at 4:30pm ET from Las Vegas. This Ducks side is going to be a good team not just in the Pac-12, but in the entire nation. They return seven players in total to this roster, with 3 of those being starters from last season. This team is extremely deep and they are going to showcase that here against Georgia. They did manage to get to the NIT quarters last year and went 21-15. This team is only 2 years removed from making the 2021 Sweet 16. The Ducks love to play with some tempo too as well, which should throw Georgia off here in Game 1. Look for them to utilize the transition game and get out on this Bulldogs defense. Oregon is at their best when they can lean on their speed and size, controlling the paint on both ends of the floor. This is simply not a good matchup for the Bulldogs right out of the gate here this season. UO returns the better lineup (on paper), so fingers crossed that translates here early in the season. UG went 16-16 last year and hasn't reached the NCAA tourney since 2015. Some trends to note, Georgia are 0-7 ATS in their L7 games, and they're 0-6 SU in their L6 games. On the other side Oregon are 6-2 SU in their L8 games. I'm backing Oregon today. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* CBB ATS Play |

The value is on the OVER on SNF. This game should see a lot of scoring chances both ways. The Bengals are starting to figure things out after a slow start. With the AFC North race wide open, Cincinnati has got themselves back into the picture thanks to Joe Burrow. He is finally healthy and doing things that made him so successful last season. This offense is rolling and producing finally, which will be huge going against this high flying Buffalo attack. The Bills had little issues moving the ball against the Bucs as they continue to get their momentum back a well. This a game where we get both Allen and Burrow playing at a top level finally this season. Look for a back and forth affair all night long, with both teams taking plenty of shots down field which helps out this Over. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 8 of Buffalo's L11 games when playing on the road against Cincinnati. Plus, the over is 9-0 in Bills L9 games as an underdog, 7-0 in Bills L7 games as a road underdog, and finally the Over is 7-0 in Bills L7 games as an underdog of 0.5-3.0. The Hamlin Bowl! These two teams will be playing with a ton of passion and emotion in this one. I expect to see both offenses flying high after nice wins and getting back on track last week. Whoever has the ball last wins. Expect a score in the high 50's. OVER 48.5 Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL O/U Play |

Cavs -1.5 The Cavaliers (2-4, 0-3 Home, 3-3 ATS) are set to take on the Warriors (5-1, 4-0 AWAY, 1-5 ATS) at home, hoping to break their three-game losing streak. The game starts at 6:00 PM ET from the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, OH. Watch it on TV on BSOH and NBCS. In terms of Moneyline (ML) odds, the Cavs are at -120, while the Warriors stand at +105. Cleveland is a slight 1.5-point favorite on the spread. The game also has an over/under set at 224.5 for those interested in the total points. Injury Status: Klay Thompson GTD. We’re on the Cavs here Sunday night. Cleveland has to turn things around and they’re going to have to be at their best here. The good news for Cleveland is their health. They’re at full health with Jared Allen and Darius Garland back. This will be just the 2nd game of the season where the Cavs will have the entire roster back. They have the weapons to compete with this Warriors side and they’re going to get up for this game. Cleveland will push the tempo on Golden State and look to attack in transition. They’re going have the pace here and it’ll open shooting lanes for the likes of Mitchell and Garland. The last time these two met up was 1/20/23 a 120-114 GSW win. OBviously the Warriors are clicking on all cylinders but they've been travelling a lot here to start the season and the Cavs while not the ELECTRIC factory are more than capable to get up and down the court here with GSW. Some trends to note, the Cavs are 7-3 in their L10 November games, and are 7-2 in their L9 games played on Sundays. Lastly, the Cavs have covered ATS in their L7 vs. Western Conference teams, after losing the previous game as a FAV. Cavs will be up for the challenge. I'm backing the Cavs -1.5 today. They'll get it done vs. GS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NBA ATS Play |

Carolina should be able to match up well with this Colts side on both sides of the ball. Indianapolis has been absolutely torched on the defensive end. Looking back at their last 3 games, they have allowed, 37 points to the Jags, 39 to the Browns, and then 38 last week against the Saints. They haven't slowed anyone down with the run or the pass. Carolina should have a field day with this defense. The Colts constantly give up the big play and their inability to get off the field on third down is costly. Carolina should control this one from the outset with their tempo and really have the Colts on their heels. Indianapolis has just been digging too big of holes they simply cannot get out of. Some trends to note, the Colts are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games as a favorite, are 3-12 SU in their last 15 games, and are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games against Carolina. Carolina are 11-1 SU in their last 12 games against an opponent in the AFC South, and lastly, they're 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog. I had the Panthers ATS last week, and I'm going back to the well this week. Panthers +3. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play |

NFL Opening odds have the Ravens as -4.5pt favorites ATS, and the O/U line has been set at 43. ML straight up bettors will see the Seahawks +205, and the Ravens are at -245. I had the Seahawks/Browns UNDER (LOSS) on Sunday Week 7 as a free play, and I'm going to revisit a Seahawks team again on the O/U this time on the road. Adding Leonard Williams NT from the Giants in a trade on Monday is going to be the missing ingredient this Seahawks D needs to be elite. This defense is going to step up here after that struggle last week. While they did make a few big plays, it was still a struggle at times against Cleveland. This Seattle defense rarely has bad back to back games, so a bounce back here should be coming. Baltimore also has been flocking on the defensive side. They are tough to crack and rarely allow the big play. This is going to be a game where neither team has the ability to play the deep ball. Look for a lot of runs, chewing of the clock, and for points to be at a premium. Seahawks 1st in Scoring Def. (12.5 PPG), YPP allowed (4.1), & Sacks Per Game (5.3), and the Ravens 1st In PTS Allowed (15.1 PPG), 2nd Total Defense (276.5 YPG), 3rd in Pass D (176.6). Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 8 of Seattle's L12 games. The total has gone UNDER in 12 of the Ravens L18 games, and has gone UNDER in 9 of Baltimore's L10 games at home, and the Under is 5-0 in Ravens L5 games as a home favorite of 3.5-10.0.

Packers -3 A nice matchup on Sunday when the Rams (3-5, 3-4 ATS, 2-2 on the road) take on the Packers (2-5, 3-4 ATS, 1-2 at home) on Nov. 5 from Lambeau Field at 1pm ET. NFL Opening odds have the Packers as +1.5pt point dogs ATS, and the O/U line has been set at 42.5. ML straight up bettors will see the Rams +145, and the Packers are at -160. I had the Cowboys -6 over the Rams on Sunday and I'm going back to the well this weekend with the Packers at home behind their rabid fan base. I'm not sure at this point of the week if Stafford will play (He's questionable as of Monday), if he does I think he'll be in quite a bit of pain. It's a 1pm ET game as well, which is always difficult for the west-coast teams. The weather will also likely be a factor this week for a nice indoor/climate controlled team playing in the elements of Wisconsin. I get it if you don't trust the Packers, but I do this week. Their defense plays well at home. Green Bay will lean on that defense here to force the Rams into some uncomfortable and long third down spots. The key for them will be to put together a lot of different blitz packages. The Packers are at their best on the defensive end when they can get into the backfield and cause a lot of havoc. That should be the case in this one as they can produce some long yardage situations and get off the field. Look for them to even force a few turnovers here. The Rams have been turning the ball over a lot more and they just don't look as sharp as they have in the past. Stafford is reeling right now and his offensive line is letting him down. Given their struggles, they haven't covered the number much either. Some trends to note, the Rams are 1-6-1 ATS in their L8 games in November, are 5-14 SU in their L19 games, are 0-9 ATS in their L9 games against the Packers, and are 0-5 ATS in their L5 games when playing on the road against Green Bay. On the other side the Packers are 7-1 in their L8 vs. NFC West teams. Back the Packers -3 on Sunday when the Rams travel to Lambeau. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play |

Arizona can score too, so I'm expecting 40+ points in this one. Likely 45+. We get the return of Deshaun Watson here, which should boost this game to seeing some points. Watson has been battling a shoulder injury, but we've seen videos all week long from practice of him slinging the ball all over the place. That bodes well for us as Cleveland should pick apart one of the worst defenses in the NFL. Arizona will start Tune here, which should also prove to be a better decision for them. The Cardinals have struggled mightily this year, but a fresh arm is going to give them a boost. Cleveland's defense has struggled the last couple of weeks and the Cardinals should open things up a bit playbook wise. Look for both teams to move the ball here, but Cleveland will be the difference here on this total. They will set the tone off this game and force Arizona to open things up themselves. Some trends to note, the Over is 5-0 in Cardinals L5 games on grass, plus the total has gone OVER in 5 of Arizona's L7 games, and the total has gone OVER in 5 of Arizona's L6 games against an opponent in the AFC North. On the other side the total has gone OVER in 5 of the Browns' L7 games against Arizona. The Cards put up 24 in Week 8, the Browns hung 20 on Seattle. Being a Seahawks fan I watched this Browns team very closely on Sunday. They're great on defense (we know this) but they're actually really good on offense too. They just need to clean up the play calling to get it dialed in here. The Browns should have won on Sunday vs. Seattle but an errant pass hit Jamal Adams in the head, otherwise I think they get it done. The Cardinals are a big step down from the Seahawks. Offenses will roll on Sunday. 27-13, 24-21, 26-14 kind of game. OVER 37.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 6* NFL O/U Play |

11-04-23 | UCLA v. Arizona +2.5 | 10-27 | Win | 100 | 83 h 31 m | Show | |
Arizona +2.5 On Saturday we get another nice Pac 12 matchup to feast on. The UCLA Bruins (6-2 SU, 4-4 ATS, 2-2 AWAY) take on the Arizona Wildcats (5-3 SU, 7-1 ATS, 3-1 HOME). This one kicks off from Arizona Stadium at 10:30pm ET. The betting odds favor the Bruins -2.5 as road favorites, while we're seeing Zona at +2.5. On the ML (for straight up bettors) we're seeing UCLA -135, and AZ at +120. The total opened at 59, and we're now seeing it at 51.5 (O/U). Bettors are hammering the UNDER. Arizona comes into this one averaging 31.2PPG (46th in the nation), while UCLA comes in averaging 30.8PPG. (48th). UCLA owns the matchup advantage 7-3 in their L10. UCLA are 4-6 in their L10, and Arizona are 7-3 SU in their L10. These two last played on 11/12/22 a 34-28 Arizona win in Pasadena. This is another game where UCLA is going to have a let down. They've lost their two games this year on the road as Utah and Oregon State both exposed a lot of flaws on them. Arizona can take a page out of their playbooks coming into play. UCLA struggled offensively in those games as they couldn't figure out the various schemes and were forced into some tough windows to pass in. Arizona is at their best defensively when they bring pressure. That is going to be the case here as they will bring more than 4 a lot, pushing back this UCLA front. Another tough matchup to see go away in the Pac 12. A late night BAIL out play for Saturday evening. We hope we don't need a BAIL out of course, so hopefully this is just a cherry on top of another winning day. Really impressed with Pac 12 frosh of the week AZ QB Noah Fifita. (Sunday's could be in his future) He's 111/149 for 1152YDS with 11TD's and 3 INT's in his first 4 starts. Completing over 70% of his passes. UCLA presents a defensive test, but I think Fifita passes it. Some trends to note, UCLA are 4-8 ATS in their L12, and are 2-6 ATS in their L8 vs. teams from the Pac 12. The Cats come into this one 7-1 in their L8 ATS and 6-3 SU in their L9. Plus they're 4-1 in their L5 vs. Pac 12 teams. Lastly, the Cats are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog of 0.5-3.0. I'm backing the Cats on Saturday vs. UCLA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB ATS Play |

11-04-23 | Flames v. Seattle Kraken -120 | 6-3 | Loss | -120 | 29 h 20 m | Show | |
Kraken -120 Probable Goalies: Markstrom (1-6-1, 3.03 GAA, 0.897 SV%) vs. Grubauer (2-4, 2.83 GAA, 0.909 SV%) The (4-5-2, 2-2 at HOME) Kraken host the Calgary Flames (2-7-1, 1-4-1 AWAY) on Saturday night. Calgary have won the L2 games in this series H2H. The Flames' goalie situation is messy. In the last game, Markstrom stopped 26 shots in a 4-3 loss to the Stars. But, everyone's losing to the Stars these days. Markstrom has lost 7 straight starts, and his backup, Vladar's stats aren't good either. I can't rely on them at the moment. In the Kraken's latest game Grubauer saved 32 out of 34 shots in a 4-2 victory over Nashville on Thursday. This gives me hope for the future. Grubauer had a rough start with four initial losses this season, but now he's improving. His stats are getting better, and I'm starting to have faith in him once more. We've been waiting for Seattle to turn it on and this is the perfect opponent to do it against. The Flames have stumbled mightily early on and they're struggling on both ends of the ice. The biggest thing here is for the Kraken to pepper the net. The Flames have struggled with allowing 2nd and 3rd chances and even some 4th chances per possession. Look for Seattle to continuously put shots on net and look to crash the net. This will be the kind of game where they can score in flurries, putting pressure on an inconsistent Flames offense. Some trends to note, the Flames are 0-6 in their L6, and 0-4 in their L4 vs. a team with a losing record, and 1-6 in their L7 road games. Lastly, they're 2-5 in their L7 vs. Western Conference teams. On the other side, the Kraken are 7-0 in their L7 home games against a team with a road winning % less than .400, and they're 7-0 in their L7 November games. I'm backing THE KRAKEN on Saturday night. The Flames winless streak continues. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* NHL ML Play |

11-04-23 | Washington -3 v. USC | 52-42 | Win | 100 | 80 h 8 m | Show | |
Washington -3 On Saturday we get my favorite Pac 12 matchup. Sadly, it's their last Pac 12 matchup. The Washington Huskies (8-0, 3-4-1 ATS, 3-0 AWAY) take on the USC Trojans (7-2, 2-7 ATS, 4-1 HOME) from the LA Memorial Coliseum at 7:30pm ET. The odds currently have Washington as a -174 ML favorite, USC is +140. ATS the Huskies are -3 to -3.5 pt favorites depending on your book. White the O/U betting total is set at 76 but opened at 78.5. The Huskies come into this one 9th in the nation scoring at 40.4PPG. The Trojans 1st at 45.9PPG. Defensively the Huskies allow 20.6PPG, and the Trojans allow 32.6PPG. The Huskies own the L5 matchup advantage 3-2. (The Huskies went 0-5 ATS in those L5). Over the L10 USC has the edge 6-4 SU. Michael Penix Jr is looking to continue his way toward the Heisman. He is the biggest piece to this game as he not only want to outshine his counterpart Caleb Williams, but he also wants to continue this Huskies march toward a potential BCS Playoff. We simply can trust the Huskies defense more. As we talked about earlier, they allow 12 less points than this USC defense. The Trojans have been torched by just about everyone and they've lucked out in the end in a few instances. Washington's defense is going to get creative here and force Caleb Williams into some uncomfortable situations. The last time these two matched up UW took USC down 28-14 in Seattle. I'm not sure I see a 14pt win on Saturday, but I see a 5+ point win. Some trends to note, UW are 10-0 SU in their L10, are 8-3 ATS in their L11 vs. SC, and are 6-0 SU in their L6 games on the road. Lastly, UW are 4-1-1 ATS in their L6 after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game. On the other side, USC are 0-6 ATS in their L6, and are 0-5 ATS in their L5 vs. Pac 12 teams. I'm all over the road team in this one. Give me the Dawgs -3 on Saturday in LA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play |

11-04-23 | Hurricanes -123 v. Islanders | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 27 h 36 m | Show | |
Canes -123 Probable Goalies: Andersen (4-1, 2.86 GAA, 0.894 SV%) vs. Varlamov (2-1, 1.00 GAA, 0.972 SV%) The (6-5, 3-5 at AWAY) Hurricanes take on the NY Islanders (5-2-2, 3-1-2 HOME) on Saturday night. We were on the Canes on Thursday night and they let us down, but we're back on their money train Saturday night. Carolina were a defensive lapse away from taking down the Rangers on Thursday, and I think they'll go for the jugular on the Islanders Saturday night. They're a better team than their record reflects. Andersen stopped 24 shots in a 2-1 loss to the Rangers last Thursday. It was his first loss since coming back from injury, and his record for the season is 4-1-0. He's been on fire lately, with three great games in a row, including wins against Seattle and Philadelphia (and the loss to NYR). I'm not sure how long this streak will keep going, but the law of averages is against Varlamov. Yes, he had a strong performance with 32 saves in a 3-0 victory against the Capitals Thursday, marking his second consecutive shutout. However, it's worth noting that the quality of the opposing teams hasn't been top-notch. While Sorokin is undoubtedly the number one choice for the team, for now, it makes sense to stick with Varlamov as he's on a hot streak until we get different news. Carolina is going to utilize their physical play here. They are at their best when they can win the 50-50 pucks and impose their will. The Canes can produce a lot of counter attacks as well, which should give them scoring chances in plenty. Getting out to an early lead is the biggest key for them. They play well when up and tend to be the aggressor when doing so. New York is not going to over power anyone by any means, which gives the edge to the Canes. Some trends to note, the Islanders are 1-6 in their L7 as an UNDERDOG of +110 to +150, and they're 1-4 in their L5 vs. a team with a winning record. On the other side the Canes are 16-4 SU in their L20 vs. NYI, and 9-1 SU in their L10 on the road vs. NYI. I'm backing THE CANES on Saturday night. I have more faith in Frederik Anderson than anyone the Isles roll out on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NHL ML Play |

11-04-23 | Canadiens -103 v. Blues | 3-6 | Loss | -103 | 26 h 50 m | Show | |
Canadiens -103 Probable Goalies: Allen (3-1-1, 2.72 GAA, 0.927 SV%) vs. Binnington (2-3-1, 2.60 GAA, 0.916 SV%) The (5-3-2, 1-1-2 at AWAY) Canadiens visit the St. Louis Blues (3-4-1, 2-1 HOME) on Saturday night. Montreal have won the L3 games in this series H2H. Binnington is confirmed playing Friday night vs. the Devils in St. Louis. It's possible he doesn't play on Saturday, but it's just as likely that he gets Saturday off and Joel Hofer gets the start (1-1 3.01 GAA, .913 SV%). Allen's having a solid run in 2023-24, reminiscent of his Blues days. In the recent game, he blocked 32 out of 35 shots during the Canadiens' 3-2 loss to the Yotes. Despite sharing starts with Montembeault, Saturday seems like it should be Allen's night. Binnington's recent performance isn't great. He's 2-3-1 but dropped his last three games. He'll be guarding the net against the Devils on Friday. In the previous match, he let in four goals on 28 shots during a 4-1 loss to the Avalanche. The Habs are 20th in GPG (2.9), and the Blues are 31st (1.7). Habs are also shooting 29SPG (20th) to the Blues 25 (30th). They're generating more offensive chances and will no doubt have the fresher legs on Saturday night. Fatigue to should play a factor. With the Blues having to deal with the tough game against the Devils on Friday, they are going to be a bit worn out. Look for Montreal to play with a lot of tempo and speed, which should result in some struggling legs late for the Blues. Back to backs are always a tough thing, but they had to go at New Jersey last night, who is a very physical group. The wear teams out and even despite the Blues win, it should come at a price. Some trends to note, Canadiens are 5-1 in their L6 vs. a team with a losing record. On the other side the Blues are 0-6 in their L6 games playing on 0 days rest. Montreal is really passing the eye test right now, and Jake Allen is rounding into form. The Habs are never out of a game, and for my money they're a Top 10 team in the NHL right now. Back the Habs on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NHL ML Play |

11-04-23 | Missouri v. Georgia -15 | 21-30 | Loss | -110 | 48 h 12 m | Show | |
Georgia -15 In Saturday's SEC matchup, #1 Georgia (8-0, 5-0 at home, 3-5 ATS) faces off against #14 Missouri (7-1, 5-2 ATS, 2-0 away) at Sanford Stadium in Athens, GA. The game starts at 3:30pm ET and will be broadcast on CBS. Here are the Week 10 College Football Odds: ATS Betting Lines: Georgia (-15.5), Moneyline odds Georgia (-739), Missouri (+508). The Over/Under Betting total is set at 55. Mizzou recently defeated South Carolina 34-12, while Georgia triumphed over Florida 43-20. Their previous encounter on 10/1/22 saw Georgia win 26-22 over Mizzou, staying under the 54.5 total. Mizzou holds an 8-2 SU record and 6-4 ATS in their last 10 games, while Georgia is 10-0 SU and 4-6 ATS in their last 10. I'm on UG on Saturday -15. I see them as the play here. This game is a big one, and to put it simply, I have more faith in UG than Mizzou. UG knows Mizzou well, understands their strengths, and has a plan to counter them. Last year, Georgia had to come back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to beat Missouri 26-22 and stay in the running for the national title. They won't underestimate Mizzou this time around. Combine that with the new playoff rankings coming out as well and Georgia isn't going to take this game lightly. The Bulldogs were ranked behind the Buckeyes in the current BCS Playoff rankings, which is certainly going to light a fire. The defense is going to be the difference here. Look fore them to force a lot of issues for this Mizzou front and or them to get into the backfield. They're going to force turnovers and long 3rd down situations, which should result in some short fields for the Bulldogs. Some trends to note, Missouri are 0-9 SU in their L9 against Georgia. On the other side Georgia are 10-0 SU in their L10, are 20-0 SU in their L20 at home, and finally they're 15-0 SU in their L15 vs. SEC teams. Back the Bulldogs ATS. Give the points. You won't need them. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB ATS Play |

11-04-23 | Suns v. 76ers -5 | 100-112 | Win | 100 | 2 h 33 m | Show | |
76ers -5 Philadelphia (3-1, 2-0 HOME, 3-2 ATS) hosts Phoenix (2-3, 1-1 AWAY, 4-0 ATS) at Wells Fargo Center today at 1 p.m. ET. Last season's series ended in a 1-1 tie, and this marks their first clash in the 2023/24 season. Phoenix has won 3 of the 4. They split last season. 3/25/23 was their last matchup, a 125-105 Phoenix win. The odds for Saturday are as follows: Moneyline (ML) shows Suns +155 and 76ers -190, while Against the Spread (ATS) has 76ers -4.5 (-110), now shifting to -5. The Over/Under (O/U) stands at 220.5. The Suns suffered consecutive losses to the Spurs on Tuesday and Thursday, failing to cover both games. In contrast, on Thursday, the 76ers triumphed over the Raptors 114-99, covering as 7.5-point home favorites. They're a perfect 4-0 ATS this season. Phili is 7th in the association at PPG with 117 per game, the Suns are 18th with 112PPG. The Phili defense is 5th in the NBA with 105PPG, and the Suns are 14th at 111PPG. Both teams are TOP 10 in FG%, and FT%. Plus they're both Top 10 on the defensive boards. But, and let me just say this bluntly. Do you really think Nurkic can hang with Embiid today? I sure as heck don't. And as a side bet I'm getting down on any Embiid props I can find. Booker (ankle) is OUT per Vogel this AM, and with a game in Detroit tomorrow, he will skip today's matchup. (He's from Detroit) With Booker out I really like Maxey to have even more of an impact on this matchup today. Dude's ballin' right now. 30PPG, 6RPG, & 6APG. He's the NBA player of the week for a reason! PHX won't have an answer for him. Some trends to note, Philadelphia are 12-5 SU in their L17, and 8-3 in their L11 at home. Plus the 76ers are 6-0-1 ATS in their L7 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. On the other side the Suns are 0-4 ATS in their L4 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, and they're 1-7 ATS in their L8 games as an underdog of 0.5-5. Phoenix has travelled, this is the first game of a back to back and they don't have Beal or Booker. OUCH. Only way this is close is if Durant has one of "those games". I'm backing Phili -5 today.

Notre Dame -3 What a great matchup we get on Saturday in college football betting action when the Fighting Irish (7-2, 2-1 on the road, 7-2 ATS) vs. Clemson (4-4, 3-1 at home, 2-6 ATS) on Nov. 4 from Memorial Stadium at 12pm ET. CFB Opening odds have the Irish as -2pt favorites ATS, and the O/U line has been set at 40.5. ML straight up bettors will see the the Irish -160, and the Tigers are at +140. Notre Dame's offense is going to be the difference. ND comes into this one after dismantling the PITT Panthers last week. They're rollin'. I'm of the opinion that they're defense is playing the best they've played all year. Plus they scored 23 points off of 5 Pitt turnovers in this one. They now have 10 takeaways in their L2 games. They've protected the ball and also been able to run a solid balanced attack, which is something they lacked in their losses to Louisville and Ohio State. They lean on Estimee to get things going and that opened up a lot of passing lanes for Hartman last week. Expect that strategy to stay the same. Off of back to back losses Clemson is reeling, and being back home for some home cooking may be what the Dr. ordered. These two clubs have met 6x with 4 coming since 2015. The Tigers have the edge 4-2. But after this week, and how well the Irish are playing of late I'm going to say the edge will be 4-3. This Irish had Clemson's number last season too, winning 35-14. Some trends to note, for starters the Irish are 11-1 ATS in their L12 vs. ACC teams, are 7-2-1 ATS in their L10 games, and are 8-2 ATS in their L10 games on the road. On the other side Clemson are 1-6 ATS vs. a team with a winning record, and are 1-6 ATS in their L7 non-conference games. Lastly, they're 1-4 ATS in their L5 games. Two teams going in opposite directions. Back the Irish on Saturday on the road vs. Clemson. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* CFB ATS Play |

UNDER 43 In Week 10, it's #3 Ohio State (8-0, 4-0 AWAY, 4-4 ATS) taking on Big 10 "rival" Rutgers (6-2, 5-0 HOME, 6-1-1 ATS) at SHI Stadium in Piscataway, New Jersey, kicking off at 12pm ET on CBS. Week 10 Odds: Ohio State is favored by 18.5 points (ATS), with Moneyline odds at Ohio State (-1227) and Rutgers (+748). The Over/Under betting total is set at 42.5 points up to 43. In their recent outings, Ohio State defeated the Badgers 24-10, while Rutgers took down Indiana 31-14. Ohio State averages 32.5 PPG and allows only 10 PPG, while Rutgers scores an average of 28 PPG and concedes 15.75 PPG. These teams clashed on 10/1/22, with Ohio State winning 49-10. Ohio State boasts an 8-2 SU record in their last 10 games, with a 5-5 ATS record. Rutgers stands at 6-4 SU and 6-4 ATS in their last 10 games. Ohio State leads the all-time series 9-0, scoring 49 or more points in all 9 games. But, BUT, Rutgers defense this year is better than all of their D's in the other previous 9 games. They'll keep the score down this time. Ohio State appears to be the stronger team in this matchup. While not trying to sound overly confident, their solid defense and quarterback Kyle McCord's personal connection to Rutgers give them an edge. With these factors in mind, it's uncertain if Rutgers can muster more than 10 points in this game. I just trust OST and their defense more than I can trust Rutgers offense. One last personal connection here. the two coaches are friends, so I doubt there's any running up of the score here too if the game gets out of hand. (Gentleman's handshake! LOL) Some trends to note, the UNDER is 5-0 in Scarlet Knights last 5 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game. The Under is 5-0 in OST's L5 games as a favorite. Plus, the total has gone UNDER in 5 of Ohio State's last 5 games. I'm backing the UNDER on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB O/U Play |

UNDER 41.5 On Friday, Colorado State (3-5, 1-3 MWC, 1-3 AWAY, 4-4 ATS) faces off against Wyoming (5-3, 2-2, 5-0 HOME, 4-3-1 ATS) at Jonah Field, War Memorial Stadium, kicking off at 8 p.m. ET and broadcasted on CBSSN. The latest odds indicate Moneyline (ML) values of Colorado State +220 and Wyoming -275, with Wyoming favored by 7 points (-110) against the spread. The Over/Under Total is set at 41.5. I like the UNDER here. AS we noted, last week the Rams scored 13 and the Cowboys 7. The offenses aren't exactly setting the world on fire are they? We're also going to have to watch the weather on Friday night. Strong winds are in the forecast. In their recent outings, Colorado State suffered a 30-13 loss to Air Force, while Wyoming stumbled with a 32-7 defeat against Boise State. Colorado State is 6-4 in their last 10 straight-up (SU) games, while Wyoming is 5-5 in theirs. In their previous encounter on 11/12/22, Wyoming narrowly won 14-13. This has the makings of the kind of game where the run game are going to dominate. With neither team being able to pass the ball because of the noted winds, which should come with a lot of chewing clock. We're going to see plenty of play clock chewing, with short yardage third down situations because of these run games. The edge sits with the inability to make big plays, as point scoring chance will be at a premium. Expect this game to be slow developing and for even special teams to be an adventure when trying for field goals. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of CState's L6 against an opponent in the Mountain Division, and in 6 of their L7 Friday games. On the other side the UNDER is 5-0 in the Cowboys L5 vs. a team with a losing record. Also, November's in Wyoming give us the UNDER as well, to the tune of 14 of the L20. Plus the UNDER has hit for the Cowboys in 6 of their L9 vs. MWC teams. Despite Wyoming's recent struggles, they seem stronger, especially with Colorado State losing 3 of their last 4 away games. I'm going with the UNDER on Friday Night Lights. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 6* CFB O/U Play |

BC +3 In Week 10, we've got a Friday Night Lights matchup between Syracuse (4-4, 3-4-1 ATS, 0-4 ACC, 3-1 HOME) and Boston College (5-3, 3-5 ATS, 2-2 ACC, 2-1 AWAY) at JMA Wireless Dome. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. ET, catch it on ESPN2. Week 10 ATS Betting Lines favor Syracuse (-2.5 to -3), with Moneyline odds of Syracuse (-139) and Boston College (+117). The Over/Under total is set at 51. Boston College is riding high after a 21-14 victory against UConn, while Syracuse is reeling from a 38-10 loss to Virginia Tech. These teams seem to be heading in opposite directions. Their last meeting on 11/26/22 ended in a Syracuse 32-23 win, with BC covering the +10.5. In their last 10 games, BC is 8-2 SU (4-6 ATS), and Syracuse is 5-5 SU (4-6 ATS). BC averages 28 PPG, while Syracuse puts up 26 PPG. Syracuse has been unable to figure things out offensively. That is going to be the biggest difference here. The Orange inability to move the ball has led to turnovers and quick 3 and outs. BC's defense has been impressive, allowing no more than 24 points in any game during their recent streak. Meanwhile, Syracuse has struggled against UNC, FSU, Clemson, and Va. Tech, losing by a combined score of 150-34. It's a tough road ahead for the Orange. BC has got more to play for it seems like (bowl eligibility) We're backing the hotter team. Boston College is going to come at this Orange offensive line with so many different blitz packages, giving them a lot to think about. If they can get into the backfield and not give them a lot of time to throw, this Orange team is simply not built to come from behind. Some trends to note, the Eagles are 6-1 ATS in their L7 as a road dog of 0.5-3.0. Also, BC are 4-1 SU in their L5, and 6-3 in their L9 in November. Cuse are 0-4-1 in their L5 ATS, and 1-4 SU in their L5. Plus they're 0-8 ATS in their L8 vs. ACC teams. Finally, the Orange are 0-8 ATS in their L8 after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game. Meet me at the window! I'm backing the Eagles on TGIF. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

The Cavs are coming off a 95-89 win against the Knicks, while the Pacers suffered a big 155-104 loss to the Celtics. In their previous matchup on Oct. 28, the Pacers beat the Cavaliers 125-113 as 3.5-point road favorites. BUT...BUT the Cavs were without 3 starters in that one. Revenge factor tonight. Injury updates: Jarrett Allen, Darius Garland, and Tyrese Haliburton are all active. Adding this play late because of lineup news (This will happen often with NBA games). The Cavs have won 2 out of the L3 in this series. They did lose the last game on 10/28. But prior to that they've won 5 of 6. I'm all over the Cavs tonight. I think they'll get the best of the Pacers and we're seeing the line move in our favor (was -3). Some trends to note, Cleveland are 7-2 SU in their L9 games against Indiana, and they're 8-1 SU in their L9 games against an opponent in the Central. Indiana are 4-9 SU in their L13 games, and they're 3-8 SU in their L11 games against an opponent in the East. Back the Cavs on TGIF. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NBA ATS Play |

11-02-23 | Spurs v. Suns -8 | 132-121 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
Suns -8 NBA Thursday night, it's a rematch between San Antonio (2-2, 1-1 AWAY, 2-2 ATS) and Phoenix (2-2, 1-1 HOME, 3-1 ATS) in NBA action at the Footprint Center, tip-off at 10 p.m. ET, watch it on NBA TV. Suns are favored with a spread of -7.5 (-115). For those going straight up, Spurs are at +240, while Suns are at -300. The Over/Under is set at 225.5. San Antonio pulled off a remarkable Halloween night comeback to beat the Suns for the first time in their last 10 meetings. The Spurs lead the season series 1-0. Both teams average 110 points per game, but the Suns have a better defense, allowing only 105 points per game, while the Spurs concede 121 points per game, ranking 27th. In their last 10 games, both teams have a 5-5 record. Notable injuries for tonight: Beal (OUT), Booker (OUT), Lee (OUT). We're on the Suns tonight to finish the job they should have finished on Tuesday. I'll admit, it's weird the NBA has been having teams play back to backs with the same team, but this is a good spot for the Suns to come out with more fire. The Suns choked away a 3 point lead with just seconds left as the Spurs shocked them for a win. Phoenix took that loss personally, especially Kevin Durant, who did not box out and turned the ball over. Look for him specifically to put up some big numbers here as the Suns are the better overall team. They have far more weapons and will come at this Spurs defense from a lot of different angles. The revenge factor is in play and we're playing the home side in this one. Some trends to note, the Spurs are 5-10 ATS in their L15, are 6-12 SU in their L18, are 2-4 ATS in their L6 vs. the Suns, and are 4-16 SU in their L20 on the road. Phoenix gets up for Prime Time Thursday night games. They're 16-4 in their L20 playing on a Thursday night at home. Back the Suns at home tonight. They'll win by 12+.

11-02-23 | Stars v. Oilers -130 | 4-3 | Loss | -130 | 11 h 48 m | Show | |
Oilers -130 Probable Goalies: Wedgewood (1-1, 3.53 GAA, 0.889 SV%) vs. Skinner (1-2-1, 3.50 GAA, 0.863 SV%) (Both Unconfirmed) Dallas (6-1-1, third in the West) visit Edmonton (2-5-1, 14th) tonight at 9:00 PM ET. The betting odds have the Oilers as the ML favorite Oilers (-132), the Stars come in as Underdogs: Stars (+109), the total (O/U) is set at 6.5 In his most recent match, Wedgewood faced off against the Leafs and saved 20 out of 23 shots but ended up on the losing side with a score of 4-1. He's had an okay performance so far, allowing 7 goals out of 63 shots across 2 games. Oettinger is their top choice in goal, but he's unlikely to start tonight. Wedgewood's season debut against Phili saw him stop 36 out of 40 shots in a 5-4 DAL victory last week. On the other side, Skinner of Edmonton had a strong showing, stopping 25 of 27 shots in a 5-2 win against the Flames. Skinner struggled initially but improved recently, allowing 5 goals on 59 shots in his last 2 starts. We're on the Oilers in this one, as they finally have some momentum to build off of. I get why you'd be skeptical however... (EDM 2-8 L10, and DAL 5-1 L6) Trust me it makes sense. BUT, Edmonton is finally back at full strength and they come in off a dominant performance in the Heritage Classic against the Flames. The Heritage classic was indeed a classic and it's got Edmonton going in the right direction now. It was the first time all season long this Edmonton team looked like everyone had anticipated. McDavid is back and that provides a huge boost for the Oilers. They are much more physical and dangerous when he's in the middle of things. We've seen this team have the energy to go when he goes and that should be the case here at home. Dallas has started this season off well, but this is the 2nd leg of a back to back for them. Situationally, this one makes a lot of sense at this kind of price. Some trends to note, the Oilers are 5-2 in their L7 vs. Central Division teams. I'm backing the Oil tonight at home vs. Dallas. The Oilers will rely on McDavid's return to boost their chances for a W. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NHL ML Play |

11-02-23 | Titans v. Steelers -2.5 | 16-20 | Win | 100 | 56 h 24 m | Show | |
Steelers -2.5 Titans (3-4, 0-3 AWAY, 4-3 ATS) vs. Steelers (4-3, 2-2 HOME, 4-3 ATS) ATS: Steelers -2.5, Titans +2.5, O/U: 36.5, ML: Titans +130, Steelers -150 Last Meeting: Steelers 19 Titans 13 (12/19/21) Titans L10 - 5-5 SU, Steelers L10 7-3 SU I see the Steelers being the team to back on Thursday Night Football. I'm delivering a win to you "via Amazon Prime!" (See what I did there? LOL) The Titans will be without Tannehill once again and this Pittsburgh defense is going to blitz all night long in this one. The Steelers defense is one of the best, led by TJ Watt, who loves to cause a lot of havoc in the backfield. They'll get a look at Will Levis here, who does come in off a good start. Still, Pittsburgh defense is 2nd in the NFL in takeaways this season. They are going to put together a lot of different blitz packages and have Levis on tilt here. The advantage its with the home side in this one as they should control the tempo on both sides of the ball. Some trends to note, Pittsburgh are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games, and are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss, plus, they're 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss. On the other side the Titans are 3-11 SU in their last 14 games, and are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against Pittsburgh. While they may have found their QB of the future I'm not impressed with the Titans overall. I just don't think the Titans are a very good football team. Steelers -2.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-02-23 | Hurricanes +102 v. Rangers | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 55 m | Show | |
Canes +102 Probable Goalies: Andersen (4-0, 3.06 GAA, 0.888 SV%) vs. Shesterkin (5-2, 2.56 GAA, 0.905 SV%) (Unconfirmed) Tonight at MSG Carolina (6-4, 3-4 AWAY) take on the Rangers (7-2 (1-1 HOME) in NHL betting action. This one starts at 7pm ET. Betting odds tonight favor the Rangers on the ML with -110, the Canes are dogs at +102, the O/U total is set at 5.5. The books are expecting a defensive battle here. Carolina comes into this one averaging 3.78 GPG, NY 3.13 GPG. Carolina also is shooting the puck much more than NYR. 35SPG, to NY's 28.5 SPG. New York does hold a 7-3 advantage SU in their L10 matchups. The last time they played was 3/23/23 a 2-1 Rangers in Carolina. The last time they played each other in NYC Carolina won 3-2 on 3/21/23. Goalies tonight, for the Canes I'm expecting Andersen to get the start. He grabbed a win last game out stopping 26/28 shots against Phili in a 3-2 win Monday. He's unbeated in regulation time this season. For NY we're likely getting Shesterkin, he's won his L3 starts. He'll have his hands full with the Canes offense tonight who have netted 37 goals in 10 games (4th in the NHL). The Hurricanes are going to catch the Rangers in a let down spot here. After the success New York had on the road, they come home to a very physical side. Carolina is going to impose their will early on here, as they aren’t afraid to play physical hockey on both ends. Combine that with their ability to pepper the opposing goal and New York is going to have their hands full. This is the kind of game the Canes can get out early and really have New York on their heels. Look for an early strike from Carolina to open things up in this one. Some trends to note, the Canes are 6-1 SU in their L7 vs. Metropolitan teams, and are 4-1 in their L5 playing on 2 days rest. The Rangers are 1-5 in their L6 vs. Met teams. I'm on the road team tonight. Wrong team is favored. Back the Canes on the ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NHL ML Play |

11-02-23 | TCU v. Texas Tech -3 | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
Red Raiders -3 In a crucial matchup, TCU (4-4, 1-2 AWAY, 3-5 ATS) takes on Texas Tech (3-5, 2-2 HOME, 3-5 ATS) tonight in Week 10. Both teams seek a win after a bye week, aiming for bowl eligibility in their Big 12 clash in Lubbock, Texas. The game kicks off at 7:00 p.m. ET on FS1. The betting odds favor Texas Tech (-3) as the Spread Favorite (ATS). On the moneyline, it's Texas Tech (-148) for straight up bettors and TCU (+124). The Over/Under total is set at 59.5. Their previous meeting on 11/5/22 ended in a 34-24 TCU victory. TCU is 4-6 SU in their last 10, while the Red Raiders are 5-5 SU. Last games out TCU got smashed 41-3 by KState. Tech lost 27-14 to BYU. We're on Texas Tech here, at home. This is almost a must win for the Red Raiders if they hope to find themselves in the postseason bowl games. They have dealt with injuries all season long, but do get back QB Behren Morton, who will make a difference here. He's the spark TT needs to get that offense going again. I have no doubt here. He's been able to lead this offense when healthy to some big plays and solid performances overall. Tech needs to win 3 of their last 4 to get to a bowl so his timing is great, and Jake Strong was not the answer. TCU has been one of the most disappointing teams in the nation this year and they have struggled on the road. This is going to be a game where Texas Tech comes out with a bit of fire underneath them as well. The Red Raiders should be able to find a lot of success against this secondary, we're backing TT. Protect the ball, and don't turn it over tonight...that's how TT takes this one. Weather will be clear and in the high 60's, not a factor. Some trends to note, Red Raiders are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Thursday games, and are 4-2 ATS in their L6 vs. Big 12 teams. On the other side TCU are 3-6 ATS in their L9. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-01-23 | Coyotes -120 v. Ducks | 3-4 | Loss | -120 | 32 h 11 m | Show | |
Coyotes -120 Probable Goalies: Vejmelka (2-3 2.51 GAA) vs. Gibson (1-3, 2.81 GAA) Coyotes (4-4) take on Anaheim (5-4) on Wednesday night at 10pm ET from the Honda Center. The Yotes won the last meeting on Oct 21 (2-1). They're 4-6 SU in their L10, and the Ducks are 5-5 SU in their L10. Locking this in early for Humpday. This is a let down spot for the Ducks. They come in for the first time in over a decade after sweeping a four game road swing. They return home now to take on the Coyotes, which should be a bit of a let down after the off day. Arizona is no pushover either. They’ve came out of the gates with some good play at times and have a lot of momentum to build off of. Monday night they took it to the Blackhawks, dropping an 8 spot. They’re playing a high level offensively and should find success against this Ducks defense. Back the Yotes on the ML on Wednesday night. Some trends to note, Arizona are 4-2 SU in their L6 when playing on the road against the Ducks. The Coyotes are also 1-11 SU in their last 12 games at home, and lastly they're 6-1 in their last 7 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

OVER 223.5 Tonight at 9:00pm ET in Salt Lake City we get the Memphis Grizzlies (0-4, 0-1 AWAY, 1-3 ATS) taking on the Utah Jazz (1-3, 1-1 HOME, 2-2 ATS) at the Delta Center.. The betting odds for this one have the Jazz as the small -2pt favorites ATS, on the ML the Jazz are -130, the Grizz +113. The O/U total is set at 223.5 after opening at 227.5. Memphis come into this winners of 3 of their L7, while the Jazz are 6-4 in their L10. These two clubs met up 4x in the 22/23 season splitting the series 2-2. The L4 times they have met they combined to put up 228, 241, 226 points and 247 points. Memphis and Utah both come in with some early season struggles and it comes because of their defense. That will certainly benefit us as we are on the over here. Both teams are built with youth and that has put them into some struggles with defensive stops. They’ve been unable to slow reams Down in transition and we should see that become a huge issue on Wednesday. Look for quick tempo game and for both teams to struggle with stopping easy looks at the rim. With the speed of this game, shooting lanes will open as well. No injuries of note for the Jazz tonight, of course the Grizz have concerns. Missing Morant (susp), Adams, Clarke, Kennard, and Aldama. Both teams are averaging over 105PPG, putting them in the middle of the NBA pack. Defensively however they're both in the bottom 10. The Grizz allow 114PGP, and the Jazz 121. The Grizz haven't scored less than 105 this season. The Jazz 102. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 11 of Memphis' L12 games when playing on the road against the Jazz, and in 5 of Utah's L6 games, and in 10 of Utah's L12 games against Memphis. Also, we've seen the OVER hit in 4 of Utah's L5 games at home. We're backing the over tonight in Salt Lake. Expect points. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* NBA O/U Play |

11-01-23 | Rangers -102 v. Diamondbacks | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 10 h 26 m | Show | |
Rangers -102 Starting Pitchers: Eovaldi (16-5, 3.61 ERA) vs. Gallen (19-11, 3.68 ERA) Welcome to November baseball! Tonight, the Diamondbacks (94-84, 46-41 at home) and Rangers (102-76, 50-41 away) are set to face off at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona, in Game 5 of the World Series. You can catch all the action on FOX at 8:03 PM ET. The betting odds paint an intriguing picture, with the Rangers at -1.5 on the run line for the game, while the Diamondbacks are at +1.5. In terms of the moneyline, Texas comes in at -110, with Arizona also at -110. The over/under, indicating the total number of runs expected, is set at 8.5 runs. As the tension mounts, the big question is, which team will emerge victorious? Well, according to our prediction, it's THE RANGERS! We can't deny it; we're never quite ready for the baseball season to end, but the time has come, and it's happening tonight. Our bet? We're putting our money on the Rangers ML. Texas has had little issues with Arizona over the last two games. The World Series trophy is in the house on Wednesday night as Texas can clinch. This is the kind of game where Eovaldi has stepped up all season long. The RH is 4-0 this postseason and will look to rebound from a rough Game 1 start. He’s been one of the best in the league at bouncing back and this time should be no different. Combine that with how well this offense is dialed in and he should see some run support. Texas has them on the ropes and this should be the kind of game they get out to an early lead and let Eovaldi settle in. Runs per game. Texas 5.75. Arizona 4.56. That 1-run makes all the difference tonight in what should be a classic. World series champs... has a nice "ring" to it... hey? (See what I did there? LOL) Some trends to note, Texas are 5-1 SU in their L6 games, and are 7-0 in their L7 road games vs. a right-handed starter, and they're 6-0 in their L6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Plus they're 10-0 in their L10 road games! On the other side the Diamondbacks are 0-7 in their L7 interleague home games, and are 2-4 SU in their L6 games when playing at home against Texas. Back the Rangers in Game 5 tonight to win it all. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* MLB ML Play |

The betting odds for this one have the Thunder as the small -3.5pt favorites ATS, on the ML the Pels are +140, the Grizz -155. The O/U total is set at 227.5 after opening at 225.5. New Orleans come into this winners of 5 of their L10, while the Thunder are 6-4 in their L10. These two clubs met up 5x in the 22/23 season with NOP taking the series 3-2. The Thunder have won the L2 games 123-118, and 110-96. (They haven't met since APRIL). The Thunder won 124-112 Monday over Detroit. While the Pelicans lost to GS 130-102. (No Brandon Ingram) We’re on the Pelicans here, grabbing the points. New Orleans is a very interesting team. They are built to play with a lot of speed and also have the ability to shoot a ball better than a lot of teams. Oklahoma City is getting a lot of credit here early but this team still has a lot of work to do on both sides of the ball. They are still on the younger side for the most part and still go through spurts where they just haven’t looked good at times. Grabbing the points here is the smart move as New Orleans can go toe to toe with this Okc side and have a chance to steal this outright. The ZION is my X-Factor tonight. I don't think OKC has anyone that can go toe-to-toe with him. Check out the NBA injury reports for this one. Alvarado and Ingram are questionable. When Ingram plays NOP are 2-0. (I think he plays tonight, if he doesn't McCollum plays more, and I'm OK with that too) For OKC J. Williams is OUT, and K. Williams is OUT. Some trends to note, the Pels are 11-5 SU in their L16 games, and are 5-1 SU in their L6 games when playing on the road against OKC. We're backing the Pelicans on the road tonight. Wrong team favored. (Especially if Ingram plays. LOL) You have to love the NBA injuries to start the season hey? (NOT) Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* NBA ATS Underdog Play |

OVER 38 Two teams with a long history dating back to 1923 are set to battle it out tonight at InfoCision Stadium-Summa Field in Akron, OH. It's Akron (1-7, 1-2 at home, 3-5 ATS) taking on Kent State (1-7, 0-5 away, 2-6 ATS) in a clash of MAC opponents. As they prepare for this matchup, the Zips are coming off a tough 41-14 loss to Bowling Green, while the Golden Flashes suffered a 24-6 loss to Buffalo. The odds for this game have the Zips as 4-point favorites with an over/under set at 38 points. Taking a closer look, Akron is -178 on the moneyline (for straight-up bettors), while Kent State is sitting at +149. The O/U is 38. Get ready for some exciting weekday MACtion! Akron and Kent battle for the Wagon Wheel in what is a down year for both teams. Although it's a blast from the past, it's worth noting that these teams first met in 1923 when Akron emerged victorious with a 32-0 win. While that historic game may not have much relevance today, I wanted you to know! LOL In terms of their overall head-to-head record, the Zips hold the edge at 35-28-2. Their most recent encounter was on 10/22/22 when Kent State secured a 33-27 win. As we approach this matchup, the Golden Flashes have posted a 3-7 record in their last 10 straight-up (SU) games, while the Zips stand at 5-5 SU. We’re backing this low total of the Over, as they’re going to pull out all the stops here. Realistically, this is like both team’s both game here in 2023. Neither team will be crashing the postseason and these two sides are separated by just one highway. Akron and Kent both have awful defenses for starters, so we should see both offenses at least move the ball with some ease. Combine that with the playbooks going to be opened up here as this should be a game with a lot of creativity from both coaches. Look for shots to be taken down field and for this to be a higher scoring game. Some trends to note, the Over is 5-0 in Kent's L5 games as a road underdog of 3.5-10, we've also seen the OVER hit in 6 of Kent State's L9 games, and 5 of their L6 games on the road. Get ready for some mid-week MACtion as these teams look to add another chapter to their storied rivalry. We're on the OVER on Humpday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* NCAAF O/U Play |

10-31-23 | Predators v. Canucks -135 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 28 h 41 m | Show | |
Canucks -135 Probable Goalies: Saros (4-4, 2.49 GAA) vs. Demko (3-2, 1.91 GAA) A really nice NHL matchup on tap for Hallowe'en night when the Predators (4-4, 1-2 AWAY) hit the road to play the Canucks (5-2-1, 2-0-1 at HOME) from Rogers Arena at 10pm ET. NHL Opening odds have the Preds as +120 dogs, and the Nucks are -135 favorites on the ML, and the O/U line has been set at 6. Puckline odds see the the Predators at +1.5 (-200), and the Canucks are -1.5 (+185). Saros is likely in net for Nashville in this one. (Until we hear otherwise) He's been playing a lot, but early in the season this is fine. On Saturday, Saros had 33 saves in a 3-2 OT win vs. Toronto. Notably, he has been the starting goaltender for Nashville in all 8 of their games, he's 4-4. He has 1 shutout, and a .915 SV%. Tough loss last game out for Van City. They lost in OT to a hot Rangers club. Miller scored 3:48 into OT. Casey DeSmith was in the pipes for the Nucks who had their 3-game win streak snapped. The Canucks were only 2/5 on the PK. Demko will be back in net for Vancouver on Tuesday. He has been outstanding. Last game out he grabbed himself a 22 save shutout vs. the Blues. Demko has only surrendered more than two goals in a single game once, conceding 9 goals out of 140 shots in total, resulting in an impressive .936 SV% in 2023. He's putting this team on his back, and Nashville won't have an answer for him. On offense the Nucks are averaging 3.8GPG (5th in the NHL), and they're #1 in the NHL in the shooting % stat. The Canucks are also #7 in the league on the PP, going up against the #30 PK in the Preds. The Preds are scoring 2.87 GPG, good for 19th. I don't know if you've ever done it, but the Toronto to Vancouver flight is 5.5 hours. This is a trip across the country on one day rest. I think the Canucks will jump all over Nashville in this one as they'll be the fresher of the two teams, and will take over the game in the 3rd. All time the Nucks are 40-35-2 vs. Nashville. Vancouver are 6-2-2 in the L10. They played 3x last year, a 4-3 Preds win in Van, followed by a 4-2 Preds win, in Nashville, and a Nucks 3-1 win in Nashville. Some trends to note, Nashville come into this one losers of 10 of their L15 games in October. On the other side Vancouver are 7-3 SU in their last 10 games, 4-1 in their L5 at home, and 6-0 in their L6 against teams from the WESTERN conference. Halloween night in Van City, and I'm on the Nucks ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL ML Play |

UNDER 9.5 Probable Pitchers: TEX - A. Heaney-L vs ARI - J. Mantiply-L Happy Halloween! Tonight, it's the Rangers versus the Diamondbacks in Game 4 of the 2023 World Series. The action kicks off at 8:03 p.m. ET on FOX. The Rangers are currently up 2-1 in the series. Late update here. GOING with the UNDER 9.5. I've been looking at this game for an hour, and it's really got me flip-flopping do I want the total? Or the moneyline? Heaney should be ready for Tuesday's game after pitching briefly in Game 2 on Saturday. He gave up 3 runs, 4 hits, and 1 walk in just 0.2 innings in Game 4 of the ALCS against Houston. Not a great outcome for him, but he's had some rest since then. Counting on him being better. On the other side Mantiply will be the opener tonight. He last pitched in G1. He'll get 1-2 innings max. He's 2-0 with a 4.26 ERA thru 8 appearances this playoff season. Plus, he was a stud to end the season 1.38 ERA in Sept. I think we'll see Nelson tonight. After that who knows. Castros & Frias, likely. Tensions will be high here as Arizona knows they can’t fall behind 3-1 in this series. This is going to be a tightly played game both ways. Both offenses are going to swing and miss a lot with both of these starters on the hill. We’re playing this under with the expectation of a tight game with a lot on the line here. Look for scoring chances to be at a premium and for limited base runners. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Arizona's L6 games, and we've seen the UNDER hit in 4 of Arizona's L5 games at home. I'm going with the UNDER. Fresh arms > Bats tonight.

Knicks -3.5 The Cavs (1-2, 1-0 AWAY, 0-3 ATS) take on the Knicks (1-2, 0-1 HOME, 1-1-1 ATS) tonight at MSG. Tip-off is 7:30ET. Knicks are -2.5pt favorite, the O/U is set at 212.5. On the ML the Knicks are -155, while the Cavs are +150. Happy Halloween! Light night in the association, this will be my only NBA play. We’re on the Knicks here as they have value at this number on their home court tonight. The Cavs have continued to battle injury after injury to start the seasons. Cleveland has missed their stars early and it’s resulted in them needing to utilize their bench. They’ll be without Garland and Allen once again here and they’re going to have so many issues against this defense. This Knicks team took it to them in the playoffs last year with their stellar defense and can utilize it once again here. Look for the Cavs to struggle offensively and for New York to turn up the intensity early . A trend to note, the Cavaliers are 0-6 ATS in their L6. Backing the Knicks tonight. They pass the sniff test and look like the value play here. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

10-30-23 | Jazz +8.5 v. Nuggets | 102-110 | Win | 100 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
Jazz +8.5 I have to admit I'm buzzing with excitement for this Monday matchup. The NBA champs, the Nuggets (3-0, 2-1 ATS), are on a roll, aiming for their fourth straight win as they take on the Jazz (1-2, 1-2 ATS) at Ball Arena. The action tips off at 9:00PM ET. Initially, the Nuggets were favored by 7.5 points, but now, the Jazz are at +8.5. The game's total points are set at 230.5. For those who prefer straight-up bets, the Moneyline odds show Denver at -334 and Utah at +262. These two last played in April a 118-114 Jazz W. They're 2-2 in their L4 H2H. The Nuggets are playing on the second day of a B2B so the Jazz being more rested should have more legs to play their style of game Monday. Utah can play with this Nuggets team. The Jazz are a young group that loves to play quickly. They can match the pace with the Nuggets, which is rare to find at times in the NBA. The Jazz have built a nice core with the likes of Markkanen, Sexton, Clarkson, and a few more supporting cast. This team feeds off the energy and when they catch fire, they come at you in waves. This is the kind of game where they will not only get up for it, but they know they have to attack to keep up with this Nuggets attack. Look for this one to be back and forth all night long, with Utah holding their own. Some trends to note, the Nuggets are 1-4 ATS in their L5 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. On the other side the Jazz are 6-0 ATS in their L6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 games, and they're 7-2 ATS in their L9 games against Denver. I'm not saying the Jazz win this outright, but they'll be in it to win it. We're backing the Jazz tonight to play the Nuggets tough like they have quite often in their L5 matchups H2H. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* NBA ATS Play |

10-30-23 | Raiders v. Lions -8 | 14-26 | Win | 100 | 169 h 21 m | Show | |
LIONS -8 Locking this in early. I expect the line to move UP TO -9 or -9.5 as the weak moves on. (I could be wrong, and I was wrong. LOL) Tonight, it's Monday Night Football in Week 8 as the Raiders (3-4) take on the Lions (5-2) at Ford Field, with an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff on ABC/ESPN. For those looking to bet straight up, the odds stand at Raiders +300 and Lions -375. If you prefer the point spread, the Lions are favored by -7.5 (-115), and the Over/Under total is set at 44.5. In their last outing, the Raiders suffered a brutal defeat, losing 30-12 to the Bears in a game that was completely one-sided. They failed to cover the spread as a 2.5-point road favorite. On the other hand, Detroit had a tough time too, experiencing their worst loss of the season, a 38-6 drubbing at the hands of the Ravens, failing to cover as 3-point underdogs. Tonight we're in a nice bounce back spot on the Lions. They are here to put last week behind them as they were throttled by the Ravens. They still have had a lot of success thus far and still have far more confidence heading into play here. The Raiders had just 235 yards in their loss to Chicago, a game in which their struggles came on both sides of the ball. Las Vegas has just been far too inconsistent to trust. The Lions should be able to move the ball on them and put together some solid drives early in this one. Look for the Lions to stake themselves out to a lead and have this Raiders team in an uncomfortable spot. Some trends to note, Vegas are 2-4 ATS in their L6 games, and they're 3-7 SU in their L10 games. They're also 1-5 ATS in their L6 games on the road. On the other side, Detroit are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games, and they're 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games at home. Back the Lions at home on MNF. Jimmy G or not (he'll play), this is a double-digit win for the Lions who get back on track. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NFL ATS Play |

10-30-23 | Rangers -106 v. Diamondbacks | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
Texas -106 Probable Pitchers: TEX - M. Scherzer-R vs ARI - B. Pfaadt-R Tonight, the Diamondbacks play against the Rangers in Game 3 of the 2023 World Series at 8:03 PM ET in Chase Field. The series is tied 1-1. Both teams have an equal chance to win, with Arizona seeing -110 odds. The Rangers are -106 on the ML. The predicted total score (O/U) is 9. In the last game, the Dbacks won 9-1, thanks to Merrill Kelly's excellent performance. Now, Brandon Pfaadt (with a 3-9 record and 5.72 ERA) will pitch for the Diamondbacks, while Max Scherzer (with a 13-6 record and 3.77 ERA) will pitch for the Rangers. We're on Texas here as the World Series shifts to Arizona. The Rangers send out Scherzer, who has to step up at some point here during the postseason. He battled back from injury, but has not looked like himself at all. After the Rangers walked off game 1, we saw Scherzer go out to the outfield and get a bullpen session in. The 3x Cy Young winner and 8x MLB All Star is at a different level right now mentally and that should translate on the field in Game 3. He went 4-2 with a 3.20 ERA in 8 starts for the Rangers in 2023. Scherzer has played in the World Series before. He won one game and didn't lose any in three World Series games. He played for Detroit in 2012 and won the first game for Washington in 2019. This will be Pfaadt's first time pitching in a WS. Pfaadt has stepped up for Arizona, but the rookie is going to have his hands full with this lineup in his 5th postseason start. In the regular season, Pfaadt had some trouble with a 5.72 ERA and 1.41 WHIP. But in the playoffs, he's doing much better with a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, and 22 strikeouts in 16.2 innings. The Rangers are going to make him work and put a lot of traffic on the bases. This is a valuable play at this kind of price. We trust Texas' offense more tonight. Some trends to note, Texas is 6-0 in their L6 road games vs. right handed starters. Plus, Texas are 10-4 SU in their L14 games, and are 8-0 SU in their L8 games on the road. Also, Arizona are 1-5 SU in their L6 games against an opponent in the AL. Back Scherzer and the Rangers on Monday night in G3. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* World Series G3 ML Pick |

10-30-23 | Rangers v. Jets +115 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 13 m | Show | |
Jets +115 Probable Goalies: (Both Likely) Igor Shesterkin (4-2, 2.69 GAA, 0.900 SV%) vs. Connor Hellebuyck (4-2, 2.98 GAA, 0.899 SV%) Tonight the Rangers are facing off against the Jets at Canada Life Centre at 7:30 PM ET. You can catch this game on ESPN+. The Rangers are the favorites at -126, while the Jets opened as underdogs at +105 on the moneyline. The over/under total is set at 6 points. We're on the HOME team tonight on the ML. This is the Rangers 7th road game in their first 9 of the year. They have 6 wins in their first 8. The Jets are 12th in the NHL in GPG, and 6th in the NHL in shots per game. They can get after it with the best teams in the NHL. The Rangers after travelling from Vancouver to Winnipeg on Monday are nearing the end of their road trip. How are the legs? Winnipeg will be full of energy in this one. The Rangers recently won 4-3 against Vancouver, while the Jets suffered a 4-3 loss to Montreal. Over the past few years, the Rangers and Jets have split their last 10 matchups (5-5). I haven't been overly impressed with Shesterkin so far in 2023, and the Jets come into this matchup averaging 3.75GPG. Hellebuyck watched Brossoit in a shootout loss to the Habs on Saturday and it's his turn in between the pipes on Monday. He's 3-0 in his L3 games, and his save % is on the rise. He has stopped 91 of 96 shots in his 3-game streak. Including a 35 save effort vs. the Wings. This will be an emotional game for the Jets as they welcome back Blake Wheeler. I always look for emotional edges in games and the crowd will surely be fired up for this one. The Jets are hoping to get the best of him as they extend their points streak to 5 games. Some trends to note, the Jets are 4-1 in their L5 games vs. Eastern conference teams. The Jets have won 3 of their L4. They've won 2 of the L3 vs NYR and have averaged 2.67GPG in the L3, compared to NY's 1.67 GPG. Interesting dating back to last season NYR are 1-4 in their L5 Monday starts. I'm backing the underdog Jets as my ONLY NHL play for Monday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 6* NHL ML Play |

10-29-23 | Lakers v. Kings -2.5 | 127-132 | Win | 100 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
Kings -2.5 The Kings (1-1) will host the Lakers (1-1) at the Golden 1 Center in Sac Town today, starting at 9:00 PM ET. This game marks their first meeting this season. NO lie, this is going to be a close game, the Kings are slightly favored by 2 points (to -2.5). The expected total points scored by both teams combined is set at 234. Straight up bettors will see the ML set at Sacramento -130, Los Angeles +110. Last season, Sac-town won 3/4 against the Lakers. Interestingly, most of their victories happened away from home, as they achieved a 2-0 record in LA. The Kings last year were one win away vs. the Warriors from facing off against the Lakers in the Western Conference Semi's. We're on the Kings here, laying the points at home. They averaged 126PPG vs. LA last year and won their matchups by 5+. I'm expecting the same today. Sacramento is in a bounce back spot after they were knocked around by Golden State last time out. They put themselves in a hole early that they just could not get out of. This is the perfect bounce back spot as they matchup well with Los Angeles. The Lakers needed a huge comeback against a Suns team that was missing half their team it seemed like due to injury. The Lakers still have plenty of flaws on their side and they aren't going to match up with a team that plays with so much tempo. Look for the Kings to push the issue here and get out in transition, which should cause plenty of problems for this Lakers side. In the 2022/23 season, Sacramento had a strong performance, winning 68.6% of their games when they were favored to win (35 wins out of 51 games). When they were the favorites with odds of -130 or less in the previous year, they did even better, with a record of 31 wins and 13 losses, a 70.5% win%. Some trends to note, (There's a few...LOL) The Lakers are 1-4 ATS in their L5, are 1-5 SU in their L6 games, are 1-4 ATS in their L5 vs. the Kings, are 1-4 SU in the L5 vs. Sacramento, and are 0-5 SU in their L5 games on the road. We're on the home team on Sunday. Enjoy the NBA action! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NBA ATS Play |

10-29-23 | Bears v. Chargers UNDER 46.5 | 13-30 | Win | 100 | 145 h 30 m | Show | |
UNDER 46.5 Locking this in early. I expect the line to move down as the weak moves on. (I could be wrong) We're on the Under in this one as this should be a slower developing game. Both offenses love to slow things down as we've seen them both struggle to put up points through the first few weeks of this season. This is going to be the kind of game where the clock continues to run and the run games are established. Combine that with neither side being explosive too. We've seen a lack of a spark from both the Chargers and the Bears, who have struggled to find the big play. That benefits us here on this under tremendously. Some trends to note, The total has gone UNDER in 4 of the Chargers' L5 games, plus the total has gone UNDER in 4 of LAC's L5 games against Chicago, and lastly the total has gone UNDER in 4 of the Chargers' L6 games at home. Back the UNDER 46.5 on Sunday Night Football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL O/U Play |

10-29-23 | Ravens v. Cardinals +9 | 31-24 | Win | 100 | 87 h 1 m | Show | |
Cardinals +9 In Week 8, the Ravens (5-2, 5-2 ATS) hit the road to face the Cardinals (1-6, 3-4 ATS). The game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, and on TV on CBS. When it comes to NFL Week 8 betting odds, the Moneyline shows the Ravens at -400 and the Cardinals at +325. Additionally, the ATS line is set at Ravens -8.5, and the Over/Under (O/U) stands at 44.5 points. The Cardinals suffered a 20-10 loss on the road against Seattle, entering this matchup as 10-point underdogs. On the other hand, the Ravens are riding high with two consecutive victories, the most recent being a 38-6 home W against Detroit. Hold your nose on this one. The Cards are the move here though as this is an interesting spot. Baltimore caught all the attention after their throttling last week against the Lions. Baltimore looked like they were a top team in the entire league, dominating on both sides of the ball. This is a bit of a trap spot. Everyone will see this and look at the 1-6 Cards and think it's an easy win for the Ravens. But this is a big let down spot. Arizona went toe to toe with the Seahawks last week in a low scoring game. Arizona can lean on their defense here and try to force some long yardage situations for this Ravens offense. If they can sustain drives offensively and slow the tempo down, they'll have this Ravens team frustrated. We're playing this to be a low scoring game and for it to be close throughout. Weather won't be a factor. A trend to note, Baltimore are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games against Arizona, also, Arizona is winning the turnover differential here at +1. The Ravens are -3. So there's that. HOME DOGS FTW. Back the Desert Dogs on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NFL ATS Play |
