10-29-23 | Rams v. Cowboys -6 | 20-43 | Win | 100 | 44 h 54 m | Show | |
Cowboys -6 Sunday, it's the Rams (3-4, 4-2-1 ATS) versus the Cowboys (4-2, 4-2 ATS). The game will start at 1:00 PM ET in Arlington, TX, at AT&T Stadium. You can watch it on FOX. In their previous games, the Rams lost 24-17 to the Steelers, and the Cowboys beat the Chargers 20-17. The latest betting odds are as follows: Cowboys are favored to win with a Moneyline of -276, while the Rams have a Moneyline of +224. The Cowboys are also favored by -6 on the Spread, and the Total points O/U is set at 45.5. Dallas is the move here. The Cowboys have found some consistency and now they return home where they have played just twice this year. Typically, the Cowboys have had success in the past at home and now they will see a string of games where most will be inside this building. This Dallas side will lean on their defense. They rank third in the NFL in total defense, allowing just 288.7 yards per game. They should be able to have the Rams on their heels, as they love to put together a lot of different blitz packages. Look for them to force Los Angeles into some long yardage situations and get off the field on third down. When these two teams have faced off before, the Cowboys have won 15 times in regular-season games and 4 times in the playoffs, while the Rams have won 13 regular-season games and lost 5 playoff games against them. The Cowboys are averaging 25.67PPG, the Rams 22.14PPG. The Cowboys only allow 16PPG, the Rams 20PPG. Cowboys are 6-4 vs. the Rams in the L10 averaging 28PPG to LAR's 20PPG in those L10 games. Some trends to note, Rams are 5-13 SU in their L18 games, and are 1-4 ATS in their L5 games when playing on the road against Dallas. On the other side Dallas are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games, are 11-5 SU in their last 16 games, and lastly they're 10-0 SU in their last 10 games at home. I'm on the Boys on Sunday -6. They'll win this by 10+. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play |

10-29-23 | Texans v. Panthers +3.5 | 13-15 | Win | 100 | 44 h 32 m | Show | |
Panthers +3.5 On Sunday, the Texans (3-3, 4-2 ATS) will face off against the Panthers (0-6, 0-5-1 ATS) in a game that features rookie quarterbacks C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young. The matchup will take place at 1:00 PM ET at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC and will be broadcast on FOX. The Panthers are coming into this game after a bye week, following a 42-21 loss to the Dolphins in Week 6. Meanwhile, Houston also had a bye week and are coming off a 20-13 W over the Saints. In terms of odds, the Texans are favored with a -185 Moneyline (straight up odds), while the Panthers stand at +150. The Texans are also favored by 3.5 points against the spread (ATS), and the over/under (total points) is set at 43.5. The Panthers are looking to right this ship and find the win column. This is the perfect matchup as they take on a Texans team that isn't overpowering by any means. Carolina can find success here on both sides of the ball. The Texans rank 25th in the NFL on the ground, as they have been extremely inconsistent. The lack of rushing attack will play into the Panthers favor here, as they know Houston will have a tough time moving the ball. Look for this game to be a grind it out kind of one, where the Panthers will have to sustain drives and keep this offense on the field. With two similar styles, it should be close throughout here. Carolina has still exceeded 20 points on three different occasions this year, so they can put their share of points up. Weather won't be a factor. The Texans come in averaging 22.5PPG, Carolina 18PPG. The Texans allow 18PPG, and the Panthers 31PPG. I'm backing Bryce Young to be the better of the two rookie QB's this week. A new play caller during the bye week is the medicine he needed. The Panthers however are a top 10 team in the Redzone. So, they've got that going for them. Looking at their past encounters, these two haven't faced each other often. The Panthers hold a 4-2 all-time record against Houston, with a 1-1 record at home and they're also 3-1 away. Some trends to note, Houston are 5-13 SU in their L18 games, and they're 1-4 ATS in their L5 games against Carolina. On the other side the Panthers are 4-0-1 ATS in their L5 games as a home underdog of 0.5 to 3, and finally they're 10-1 SU in their L11 games against an opponent in the AFC South. Carolina could win this outright and get off the schneid. Take the Panthers on Sunday and grab the points. (All of em') Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play |

10-29-23 | San Jose State -10.5 v. Hawaii | 35-0 | Win | 100 | 71 h 52 m | Show | |
San Jose State -10.5 The Spartans (3-5, 5-2-1 ATS) and the Warriors (2-6, 1-6 ATS) are set to face off on a late Saturday night at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu, HI. This matchup features two Mountain West Conference (MWC) teams. In terms of betting, the Spartans are favored by -10.5 to -11 points, with an over/under total line of 61.5. For those looking at the moneyline, SJST stands at -415, while Hawaii is at +355. Hawaii is coming off a 42-21 loss to New Mexico, while the Spartans are entering this game fresh from a 42-21 victory over the Utah State Aggies. San Jose State is the play late Saturday. If you're looking for a late night bail out, look no further. The final game on the board sends San Jose State into Hawaii at midnight eastern time. We're backing the visitors here, as they are coming in with a ton of confidence. The Spartans have won back to back games and they/ve done it in dominant fashion. They've averaged 47 points per game in those two wins as New Mexico State and Utah State had no chance. They were able to establish the ground game, which wore down the opposition. They got things going early, which wore down the opposing defenses. They should be able to do the same to Hawaii here, who has had a ton of issues stopping the run. SJSU QB Chevan Cordeiro will also have a lot of incentive here. He transferred from Hawaii and will look to beat his old team in a stadium he has plenty of experience in. SIDENOTE: I was at this game in Hawaii a few years ago just before COVID shut down the world (while on a family vacation) and let me tell you. SJST travels well. There were some good scraps in the stands! This may feel like a travelling "home game" for them. LOL Some trends to note, Spartans are 4-0 ATS in their L4 road games, and are 4-1-1 ATS in their L6. For Hawaii, they're 0-4-1 ATS in their L5 games overall, and they're 0-4 ATS in their L4 games as a dog. Aloha! We're backing the Spartans in Honolulu on Saturday night. A nice bail you out play! (Hopefully) Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB ATS Play |

10-28-23 | Diamondbacks v. Rangers OVER 8.5 | 9-1 | Win | 100 | 19 h 21 m | Show | |
Over 8.5 Probable Pitchers: ARI - M. Kelly-R vs TEX - J. Montgomery-L In Game 1 of the 2023 World Series on Friday night we were treated to a fantastic spectacle. The Rangers took down the D-Backs in 11 innings. On Saturday evening we get Game 2 at 8:03PM ET at Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX. The betting odds for G2 have the O/U total line set at 8.5, while the Rangers are -151 ML favorites, the D-Backs are dogs in Game 2 at +145 on the ML. You can bet the Rangers on the RL at -1.5 (+120). Game 2 follows an entertaining Game 1 and we're on the Over here. These two teams have showcased all postseason that they are able to come up with clutch hits and timely hits. Texas in particular can flip a game with the blink of an eye thanks to their power. Kelly gets the ball for the Dbacks and he comes in after going 5+ innings twice against Phili. He was knocked around in his first start against them, but bounced back in the next. He will not only have his hands full with this Texas lineup that makes opposing pitchers work, but he will struggle with this being his first start of the series. So far this postseason, he has pitched for a total of 17 innings in three starts, accumulating 19 strikeouts and maintaining a solid 2.65 ERA. Montgomery has stepped up this postseason. He has performed impressively in both regular and postseason games, maintaining a 2.62 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP over 92.2 innings. However, the Dbacks are a scrappy lineup that will make you work. They can string together hits and get themselves into some scoring chances early. Some trends to note, the OVER is 6-0-1 in the Rangers L7, and it's 6-0-1 in their L7 playoff games. Plus the OVER is 4-0-1 in the Rangers L5 vs. a Righty. On the other side, the total has gone OVER in 5 of Arizona's L6 games when playing on the road against Texas. Lastly, the total has gone OVER in 14 of Texas' L19 at home. Aaaaand we're flipping to the OVER for Game 2. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* MLB O/U Play |

10-28-23 | 76ers v. Raptors OVER 218 | 114-107 | Win | 100 | 25 h 41 m | Show | |
OVER 218 We're playing this over for a couple of reasons. The 76ers are going to come out with some fire. They fell in Milwaukee in a high flying game that went down to the wire in their season opener. With a questionable non travel call, they have frustration built up. They also run into a Raptors team that will be a struggle on the defensive end after dealing with an overtime game on Friday night. The Raptors also will have to pick up the tempo, knowing how this Phili side plays. They will have to play into a quicker game where transition buckets will be key. Some trends to note, the OVER is 12-3 in the Raptors L15 games as a home dog of 3-10.5. (More coming) Back the OVER in Saturday's matchup between two nice looking offenses. I have this one 227+. Assuming Harden still out for the Sixers too. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* NBA O/U Play |

10-28-23 | Ohio State v. Wisconsin +14.5 | 24-10 | Win | 100 | 67 h 32 m | Show | |
Wisconsin +14.5 The Buckeyes (7-0, 4-0 in the Big Ten, with a 4-3 ATS record) are set to face the Wisconsin Badgers (5-2, 3-1, and 2-4-1 ATS) this Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin. The game is scheduled to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be televised on NBC. Taking a glance at the betting odds, the Moneyline (ML) shows Ohio State as the favorite at -630, while Wisconsin stands at +450. The point spread (ATS) favors Ohio State by -14 points, and the Over/Under (O/U) total is set at 44.5. In their recent matchups, the Buckeyes secured a 20-12 victory over Penn State in a thrilling top-10 showdown at The Horseshoe. Meanwhile, the Badgers faced a setback, losing 15-6 to Iowa in Madison two weeks ago, but they bounced back with a 25-21 road win against Illinois in Week 8. We're on Wisconsin here, with the points. A night game, at Camp Randall, with a top team in the country coming in. This has the makings of a trap game following the Nittany Lions game for the Buckeyes. Ohio State's win wasn't pretty, but they continued their trek toward the Playoff. This is the kind of game where they need to be careful. Wisconsin isn't going to wow anyone by any means. However, they have the ability to frustrate opposing teams. They establish the run game per usual and if they can get it going, things are going to get dicey. The Badgers can wear teams down and then you combine a night crowd here and this is a spot where they can keep things close. Wisconsin can keep the ball out of the Buckeyes offensive hands and slow this game down to a tempo they favor. Ohio State looked great vs. Penn St. but the Badgers present some different challenges for sure. Some trends to note, Badgers are 10-1 ATS in their L11 games as a home underdog, and are 4-1 SU in their L5 games, finally, they're 8-3 SU in their L11 games played in October. Back the Badgers here on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB ATS Play |

10-28-23 | Grizzlies v. Wizards | 106-113 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
Grizzlies -110 The Grizzlies, with a record of 0-2 (1-1 ATS), will face off against the Wizards, who are currently 0-1 (0-1 ATS). This one tips off at 7:00PM ET in Washington D.C. at the Capital One Arena, and you can catch it on TV MNMT. The Grizzlies are slightly favored by just 1.5 points in this game, and the total points expected to be scored in the match is 227 (the O/U). Starting the season didn't go as planned, did it? Washington kicked off their season with a tough loss to Indiana, the score ending 143-120. Memphis, on the other hand, had the first of their back-to-back games and fell short losing 108-104 to Denver Friday. (they did cover) This line has moved in our favor. I was ready to lock in Memphis at -1.5, but I'll gladly take a PK (-110) ATS price. Memphis will have the advantage here. Washington is going to be in store for a long season. The Wizards come in 0-1 after allowing 142 points in regulation against the Pacers. The loss featured basically zero defensive effort as they allowed a lot of easy buckets and open shooting lanes. Memphis has had their hands full with the Pelicans and Nuggets to start, so this will be a bit of a breath of fresh air almost. The Grizzlies are deep as a team as they saw all 5 starters score in double digits last time out. They should be able to turn defense into offense and attack this Washington defense, similar to what the Pacers did. Some trends to note, the Grizz are 8-4 ATS in their L12 games against the WIZ, and they're 6-2 SU in their L8 games against Washington. The WIZ are 1-6 SU in their L7 games, and they're 4-9 SU in their L13 games at home. No Shamet or Davis for WASH on Saturday. OBV. No Morant for Memphis. Back the Grizzlies on Saturday night. They're the better team here. They'll spoil the Wizards home opener. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* NBA ATS Play |

10-28-23 | Troy v. Texas State UNDER 53.5 | 31-13 | Win | 100 | 27 h 30 m | Show | |
UNDER 53.5 Troy (5-2 record, 3-3 ATS) is playing against Texas State (5-2 record, 3-3 ATS) at Jim Wacker Field, Bobcat Stadium in San Marcos, Texas. You can watch it on ESPN+. The odds. Troy is the favorite, with a -6.5 point advantage. The total score expected in the game is 53.5. If you want to bet on the teams winning outright, you can choose Troy at -250 or Texas State at +215. The Trojans won their last game with a score of 19-0 against Army. The Bobcats also won their recent game against ULM, 21-20. The Sun Belt is full of a lot of teams sitting near the top of the standings. It seems like every team is 2-1 as they try to separate themselves. We're on the this under for a few reasons. This is going to be a tightly played game. Troy's defense is one of the best in the conference, as they've allowed 10 points on average per game through their last 3. Overall, they've gone under in 5 straight. Texas State has been cashing in on the Under too. They love to run the ball, which should see a lot of clock movement. With that, the Trojans are one of the best at stopping the run and shouldn't allow much there. Some trends to note, for Troy 5 of their 6 games this season have gone UNDER. The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Texas State's L6. Lastly, the total has gone UNDER in 6 of Texas State's L9 games played on a Saturday when at home. The two teams have played 12 games, and Texas State only won once, in 1997. My forecast has this one coming in UNDER 49. Back the UNDER in San Marcos on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-28-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Panthers -157 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 23 h 19 m | Show | |
Panthers -157 Probable Goalies: Joey Daccord (2-0-2, 2.82 GAA, 0.910 SV%) (Unconfirmed) vs. Sergie Bobrovsky (2-3, 3.05 GAA, 0.899 SV%) (Confirmed) On Saturday night, we've got a full slate of NHL action as usual. The Panthers (3-3) will be facing off against the Kraken (2-4) at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, starting at 6:00 PM ET. You can catch the game on ESPN+. In terms of betting odds, the Panthers are favored with a moneyline of -157, while the Kraken are the underdogs at +120. The over/under total for the game is set at 6, and if you're looking at the puckline, the Panthers are at -1.5 with odds of +155. Taking a peek at the recent performances of both teams, the Panthers secured a 3-1 victory against the Sharks on Wednesday, whereas the Kraken suffered a 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes on Thursday. When we look back at their recent matchups, the Panthers have won two out of the last three games, with scores of 5-3 and 5-2, but they lost the other one 5-1, all 3 were in 2022. Bobrovsky had a tough time in his recent game against the Canucks. He let in 4 goals out of 29 shots, leading to a 5-3 loss. Now, he's aiming to bounce back and secure a win in a game vs. a Seattle team that hasn't been scoring much this season, with an average of only 2.25 GPG, which ranks them 27th in the NHL. I'm not very optimistic about Daccord's chances in this game. He's not getting much help. The Kraken have only scored 18 goals in 11 games this season, and that even includes two games where they scored eight goals. The Kraken have to be tired on this road trip with all the OT they've been playing. The Panthers will have some momentum coming on their side for this one, and honestly this looks like 2 ships passing in the wind, each going different directions. I don't know what to make of the Kraken right now, but I'm sure not going to bet on them. Some trends to note, (FLA 2-1 @ home, Kraken 1-2-2 Away) Seattle are 2-7 SU in their L9 games, and are 1-7 SU in their L8 games on the road. Lastly, they're 2-6 SU in their L8 games played in October, and the Kraken are 1-6 in their L7 as road dogs. -160 is the highest I'll ever go on an NHL ML, and this play is getting close to that. This game just fits my model way to well to let it pass. I hate saying the word lock in sports predictions, but the key is in. (If you're feelin frisky back this one on the puckline at -1.5 +155) Back the Panthers at home on Saturday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NHL ML Play |

10-28-23 | USC v. California +10.5 | 50-49 | Win | 100 | 6 h 16 m | Show | |
Cal +10.5 Saturday brings an interesting clash between USC (6-2, 2-1 on road) vs. California (3-4, 2-2 at home). This one kicks off at 4pm ET at the California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, CA. Catch the excitement on TV on the Pac-12 Network. USC holds the upper hand with an 11-point advantage. If you're considering the moneyline, USC is at -457, while California is at +335. For those interested in totals betting, the Over/Under is set at 67.5 points. After last week's loss to Utah I'm not sure USC has much left in the tank. Plus that loss all but ended their playoff hopes too! Not how Caleb Williams drew this season up. The schedule USC has played in 2023 has been a grind. They're tired and are allowing over 30PPG, and the fatigue is showing. AND it's not over yet. (USC still has UW, Oregon and UCLA on the schedule) CAL is coming into this one rested and off a bye week. That's a huge advantage at this point of the season. Especially for game-planning purposes. I'm expecting a run-heavy game by the Bears. Jaydn Ott will get the ball early and often. Ball control is the name of the game here. In 2022 Cal gave USC all they could handle losing 41-35. I'm not sure I expect this many points on Saturday but I think Cal could win this one outright. If not outright, chances are HIGH for an ATS cover. Some trends to note, USC hasn't done well lately. They're 0-5 in their L5 ATS, and they're 1-5 ATS in their L6 vs. CAL. USC also isn't a fan of October. Losing 8 of their L10 in Oct. Plus the Golden Bears are 4-0 ATS in their L4 games as a home favorite of 3.5-10.5. Back the Bears on Saturday as home dogs. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NCAA ATS Play |

10-28-23 | Oregon v. Utah +6.5 | 35-6 | Loss | -109 | 62 h 14 m | Show | |
Utah +6.5 The 9th-ranked Ducks (6-1, 5-1-1 ATS) are set to face off against the 13th-ranked Utes (6-1, 4-1-1 ATS) in a Pac-12 showdown Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, UT. The Ducks are favored by 6.5 points, and the Over/Under Total for the game is set at 48. For those interested in the moneyline, Oregon is at -250, while Utah stands at +203. Utah's recent game was a thrilling 34-32 victory against the USC Trojans, a match I watched closely and can attest to the Utes' prowess. On the other hand, the Ducks are entering this matchup fresh off a 38-24 triumph over the WSU Cougars. We're playing Utah here, as they continue to find a ton of success. This team just is consistent at giving everyone frustrations and putting up good performances. They come in with all the momentum right now as well, after beating USC on a last second field goal. Every week, they get a different hero and they match up well with this Oregon side. The Ducks are going to play at an uncomfortable pace. The Utes slow things down and will look to move the chains on drives. That will have Oregon off their game, as they will struggle to find any sort of rhythm. Despite the slow pace, the Utes still can put up big plays too. They have scored over 30 in back to back weeks and should find plenty of success against Oregon's defense that has plenty of issues to deal with. They also have the coaching advantage here. I know I know Ducks fans...you disagree with me. BUT Kyle Whittingham for my money is the best college football coach in the nation! COME AT ME BRO! LOL Some trends to note, Utah are 6-1 SU in their L7 games, and are a mind-blowing 18-0 SU in their L18 games at home, and finally they're 17-3 SU in their L20 games against an opponent in the Pac-12 conference. We're backing the Utes again this week after cashing on them in Week 8. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play |

10-28-23 | Georgia v. Florida OVER 48.5 | 43-20 | Win | 100 | 23 h 3 m | Show | |
Over 48.5 What a GREAT Saturday afternoon football game we've got in store for us in SEC action. The Champs - Georgia come into this one sporting a 7-0 (4-0 SEC, 2-5 ATS) record. They'll be taking on Florida who are 5-2 (3-1 SEC, 3-4 ATS). Kickoff is at 3:30pm ET from TIAA Bank Field in Jacksonville, FL. Watch it on CBS. Last week UG took down Vandy 37-20. Florida also grabbed a DUB with a 41-39 high flying win over the Cocks. (They were 1-pt dogs) A quick look at the betting odds for this one sees UG a -14.5 point favorite (opened at -13), the O/U total line is set at 48.5 currently (opened at 44.5) Georgia -550 on the ML, and Florida +460 on the ML are the odds for straight up bets. This rivalry is always a fun one. This is just too low of a total given how both offenses operate. Georgia's defense hasn't looked the same as they have in past seasons either. Vandy even put up a fight against them, but naturally the Bulldogs offense is too powerful. Georgia and Florida will pull out all the stops in this game so we should see both sides take their shots down field. Look for Georgia to take this game personally as well, as people around the nation are starting to rumble that they may not be the best team with Michigan and Ohio State on their heels. The Bulldogs offense is rolling after the last few weeks and they should put up a lot of points themselves to help this over. Weather won't be a factor, game time temps should be low 80's, with less than 10mph winds. Grab 48 if you see it! I can see this one heading NORTH of 60. Georgia holds a 55-44-2 matchup advantage. They've been locking horns since 1915. UG have won 5 of the L6. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 4 of UG's L5 games, and the OVER is 5-0 in Bulldogs L5 vs. a team with a winning record. On the other side the OVER is 4-0 in Gators L4 games in October, 4 of Florida's last 6 games, AND 4 of the L6 games vs. Georgia. I'm on the OVER 48.5 on Saturday night for this UG/FLA matchup.

10-28-23 | Florida State v. Wake Forest +21 | 41-16 | Loss | -111 | 20 h 11 m | Show | |
Wake Forest +21 There's a big game this Saturday between two different teams that look to be going in different directions in 2023. The FSU Seminoles (7-0, 5-0 ACC, 5-2 ATS) are playing against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-3, 1-3 ACC, 3-4 ATS) at noon ET on ABC at Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium in Winston-Salem. The latest betting info on the ML has FSU as a -1400 favorite (Risk $1400 to win $100?) But if you choose Wake Forest and they win, you'd get $800 for your $100. If you like point spreads, Florida State is -21 ATS, and the total points expected in the game is 51.5. These teams have been playing since 1956. Florida State has won 30 times, Wake Forest 9 times, and they tied 1x. When FSU plays in Winston-Salem, they've won 9/14. Wake has won 3x in a row recently vs. FSU. Wake Forest catches Florida State in a nice spot here. This could be the kind of game where FSU doesn't come out with the same intensity as they've had in the recent weeks. The Demon Deacons also get back QB Mitch Griffis, who has been able to produce some good games here thus far. This offense works far better with him calling the shots and they should find some success against this Noles defense. Given the look ahead spot here, the Seminoles are going to not be as aggressive. They were taken to the brink against the Blue Devils last week and now they go down a step in competition. Wake should be able to keep this close and find the end zone a few times, putting a little pressure on FSU. Some trends to note, FSU are 1-5-1 ATS in their L7 games against Wake, and are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games as a road favorite of 10.5 or greater. On the other side Wake Forest are 17-3 SU in their L20 games at home, and WF is 13-3 SU in their L16 games in OCT. Wake Forest will do all they can to keep this one within the number on Saturday. +21 is there for the taking. +20.5 is OK too. I'm on Wake Forest +21 this weekend. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-27-23 | Warriors v. Kings -2.5 | 122-114 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 49 m | Show | |
Kings -2.5 The Kings, who have won one game and lost none, are hosting the Warriors, who have lost one game and won none. They are playing a late-night game on the West Coast at the Golden 1 Center, starting at 10:00 PM Eastern Time. Initially, the Kings were favored to win by just 1 point, but now they are favored by 2.5 points. In terms of NBA betting odds, the Kings are getting -2.5. On the ML, Sacramento at -117 and Golden State at -103 (if you prefer straight-up winner bets). The over/under total points for the game is set at 238, down from the initial 239. Tonight, it's a revenge game in Sacramento. The Warriors beat the Kings 120-100 in the playoffs last year, knocking them out in Game 7. This Kings side is going to be good. They have an amazing mix of a young core with talented vets as they continue to push toward another postseason after falling to these Warriors last year. Sacramento plays with a ton of pace and it makes opponents just so uncomfortable. They had the Jazz on tilt all night long in their opener as they throttled them by throwing up 130 points in the victory. On Wednesday, the Kings played their first game of the season against Utah and won 130-114 while they were away from home. Barnes was the top scorer with 33 points, making 5 out of 7 three-point shots. Chris Paul had his first game in Golden State, but it didn't go too well. He got nine assists but missed all six of his three-point shots and ended up with 14 points, which was just okay. When it comes to scoring, Golden State was the second-best team last season, averaging 118.9 points per game. On the other hand, the Kings were the top-scoring team, averaging 120.7 points per game. This figures to be another game where they can get the Warriors on their heels, especially with the injury issues to Green. We're on the Kings on Friday night to take down Steph and his shorthanded Warriors. (Green will be OUT) Some trends to note, Kings are 4-1 ATS in their L5 games as a home favorite of 0.5 to -4.5. The Warriors are 1-6 ATS in their L7 games as an underdog, and are 1-4 ATS in their L5 games. Lastly the Warriors are 5-15 ATS in their L20 on the road. The Kings will play quick and come out with extra incentive here in this matchup. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NBA ATS Play |

10-27-23 | Diamondbacks v. Rangers UNDER 8.5 | 5-6 | Loss | -120 | 43 h 30 m | Show | |
Under 8.5 Probable Pitchers: ARI - Z. Gallen-R (2-2, 5.24 ERA in playoffs) vs TEX - N. Eovaldi-R (4-0, 2.42 ERA in playoffs) The 93-81 Arizona Diamondbacks take on the high flying 99-75 Texas Rangers in Game 1 of the 2023 World Series. This one goes off at 8:03pm EDT at Globe Life Field in Arlington TX. Friday October 26th 2023. The Diamondbacks are on the road as underdogs at +141 odds, facing the Rangers who are favored at -165. The Over/Under total is set at 8.5, but some shops have it at 8. We're playing the under in Game 1 of the World Series. The Diamondbacks continue to be the Cinderella story as they took over Philadelphia with back to back road wins to secure their spot in this World Series. We're getting the best of both here as the Rangers and Dbacks send out their aces here. Gallen gets the ball for Arizona and while he has been hit or miss this postseason, this is the kind of spot he steps up in. He's been the backbone to this rotation all season long, as he finished with 17 wins and a 3.47 ERA. This postseason he's allowed 2 runs on 2 separate occasions, while getting through 5.0 innings and then 6.0 in his other two starts. Eovaldi has pitched like an ace himself. He's gone 4-0 this postseason, with an ERA of 2.42. He's logged 4 quality starts in all 4 outings and has been dominant. He should have this Dbacks lineup off balanced, producing a lot of 2 strike counts. Rangers are 4-0 in Eovaldis L4 stars, and 1-8 in their L9 playoff home games. Here's some nerdy stats for you, the Rangers were favored in 115 games this season, winning 67 (58%). Texas was favored by -165 or more in 41 games, winning 27 of them. A trend to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Arizona's last 5 games. We're backing the UNDER in Game 1. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* MLB O/U Play |

10-27-23 | Thunder v. Cavs -3 | 108-105 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 37 m | Show | |
Cavs -3 The Cavaliers, who won their first game, are playing against the Thunder, who also won their first game, on Friday at 7:30 pm ET at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. In the last season, these teams played two games and each won one. Here are the NBA game chances for tonight. To win outright, Thunder has +134 odds, while Cavaliers have -158 odds. The spread favors the Cavaliers -3.5, and the total points O/U is 226.5. The odds in Vegas are pretty tight. The Cavs have value here as they open their home campaign against the Thunder on Friday night. Both teams looked pretty darn good in their openers. Cleveland comes in 1-0 after quite the come back in the final 2 minutes against Brooklyn on Wednesday. Cleveland trailed by 4 and Donovan Mitchell took matters into his own hands as he forced a key turnover and hit a huge 3 ball to give Cleveland the win. Max Strus the smooth shootin' DePaul SG joined Cleveland and contributed 7 three pointers in the win as he figures to play a huge part in this offense. You'll remember he helped the Heat bigtime on their way to the finals last year averaging 11.5PPG. The Cavs are hoping for more of the same. They should be much more potent from deep in 2023/24 and they had 17 3's overall. The Thunder haven’t started the season 2-0 since 2016 and they were a struggle of a road team last year, and ultimately missed out on the playoffs for the 3rd year in a row. They're hoping to improve on their 40 win season, and will be riding the two Canadians and an Aussie. Dort, SGA, and #2 pick Chet Holmgren. Cleveland should be able to control the tempo of this game and with this low of a line, there’s value. A couple trends to note, OKC are 1-4 SU in their L5 games against Cleveland, and are 3-6 ATS in their L9 games on the road. Last year's scores 110-102 Cavs win, and a 112-100 Thunder W. Back the Cavs in their home opener. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* NBA ATS Play |

10-27-23 | Sabres v. Devils UNDER 7 | 4-5 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 1 m | Show | |
UNDER 7 Probable Goalies: Eric Comrie (1-1, 2.05 GAA, .0923 SV%) (Confirmed) vs. Vitek Vanecek (2-2, 3.10 GAA, 0.900 SV%) Tonight, the Devils (3-2-1) are playing against the Sabres (3-4) at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The game starts at 7:00 PM ET. The NHL odds for tonight see the Devils as a -193 favorite, the DOGS are the Sabres at +161, and the O/U total is 7. The Devils lost their last game at home 6-4 to the Caps on October 25th, while the Sabres won their last game on the road 6-4 against the Sens. These two have been scoring goals so far in the young season. It's why the line is 7. What we're hoping for tonight is that the goalies stand on their heads. Vanecek is the likely starter for the Devils on Friday. To be honest he has just passed the eye test more than Schmid at this point. 3.10 GAA and .900 SV% in four games (2-2-0). Comrie is slated to tend the twine on the road. He's the likely starter. Comrie will make his third start of the season with Levi under the weather. So far this season he's sporting a 1-1-0 record and a 2.05 GAA and .923 SV%. In his last game out he allowed 3 goals on 27 shots in Monday's 3-1 loss against the Habs. Schmid was in net in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Caps. Sabres are averaging only 2.71 GPG, the 21st fewest in the league. So with this being an O/U of 7 I feel the need to get in on this one as we've been profitable betting NHL O/U's to the UNDER 7 so far this year. Also, New Jersey has yet to score first in a game or hold a lead after the first period, and we're assuming both of those things change tonight. Some trends to note, the Under is 3-0-1 in Sabres L4 vs. Metropolitan teams, and the total has gone UNDER in 5 of Buffalo's L7 games. We've also seen the total go UNDER in 6 of the Devils' L9 when playing at home against the Sabres. I know Buffalo have combined to score over 7 goals in 2 games this season, but tonight is all about the goalies! I'm trusting my gut. Back the UNDER 7 on Friday. We'll hang on and hope the offenses take a nose dive tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NHL O/U Play |

10-26-23 | Bucs v. Bills -9 | 18-24 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 19 m | Show | |
Bills -9 In Week 8, it's the Buccaneers (3-3) versus the Bills (4-3) on Amazon's TNF. They'll be facing off at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo, NY, with kickoff set for 8:15pm ET. The Moneyline (ML) offers the Bucs at +320 and the Bills at -405 for those who prefer straight up bets. ATS lines, the Bills are favored by -9, and the Over/Under (O/U) is set between 42.5 up to 43.5. Last games for each saw Buffalo suffer a 29-25 defeat on the road against the Patriots, while the Bucs had a disappointing 16-13 loss to the Falcons. Weather won't be a factor. Game time temps call for low 70's, and no rain. For starters the Bucs can't run the ball, so that makes them 1-dimensional. Buffalo, while banged up should be licking their chops to come after Baker on Thursday in Full Old School Buffalo Blitzkrieg mode. (Is Bruce Smith available?) Baker is going to have to go full on check-down Baker to move the ball on Thursday night. The Bucs have lost 3 of 4 and this could be one of the last times we see Baker Mayfield at QB. *YES* it's that bad! Check out their injury report. They can't run the ball (as I said) as it is, now they have O-lineman missing games (likely 2), and their best defensive player Vita Vea is a possible GTD. The Bills are a top 15 team in the NFL in both Passing and Rushing, and they're #2 in points scored. Allen is having a solid season, currently 5th in the NFL for passing yards with 1,841 in 7 games. Averaging 263YPG with a 70% completion rate. He also has tossed 15 TD's to only 7 INT's. (3 weren't his fault) These are numbers Baker just can't touch, and there's just no way TB can keep up with Buffalo on the scoreboard. Some trends to note, Buffalo are 12-4 SU in their L16 games, and they're 15-3 SU in their L18 games at home. On the other side TB are 4-10 ATS in their L14 games, and are 0-6 ATS in their L6 games against AFC teams. Bills win by 12+. We're backing the Bills ATS on Thursday Night Football.

10-26-23 | Maple Leafs v. Stars UNDER 6.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 19 h 19 m | Show | |
UNDER 6.5 Probable Goalies: Joseph Woll (2-1, 1.44 GAA, 0.958 SV%) vs. Jake Oettinger 3-0-1, 1.44 GAA, 0.952 SV%) Woll stopped 36 shots in a 4-1 victory against the Capitals on Tuesday. He also made a relief appearance during Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Lightning, saving all 29 shots he faced. Unlike Ilya Samsonov, Woll is performing well in the early stages of the season. Is there a better goalie this NHL season? Oettinger blocked 38 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win against the Pens. He's on fire, undefeated in regulation at 3-0-1 through four starts, boasting a remarkable .952 save percentage. Keep an eye on him. Unreal performance. If you're seeing me play a lot of UNDERS early in the season there's a reason why. Scouting reports. The goal scores haven't quite figured out the goalies yet. Of course the Leafs and Stars are good offensive teams but for this play, tonight, this is going to be a defensive battle. Woll vs. Oettinger. I can't wait. I'm not a huge fan of this play at 6. Love the 6.5. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 10 of Toronto's L13 games, and 5 of Toronto's L6 games on the road. On the flip side the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Dallas' L5, and 4 of their L5 vs. Toronto. Back the UNDER between these two top clubs on Thursday. This should be a great game for NHL bettors and fans alike. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NHL O/U Play |

10-26-23 | Wild v. Flyers +109 | 2-6 | Win | 109 | 9 h 15 m | Show | |
Flyers +109 Starting Goalies: Gustavsson (2-1-1, 3.93 GAA, 0.897 SV%) vs. Hart (3-2, 2.21 GAA, 0.922 SV%) (Each goalie has a shutout this year already) The Wild will face the Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center this Thursday at 7:30 PM ET, with the game airing on ESPN+. When it comes to NHL betting odds, the Wild are the favorites at -127, while the Flyers are the underdogs at +107. The NHL betting total (O/U) is set at 6, although you might find 6.5 at some books. The Flyers have a strong record at home against the Wild, boasting an 11-5 record. Over the years, they hold a 17-12-1 record overall against the Wild. Last season, the Flyers had a 3-2 loss in OT in January, but in March, they managed a 5-4 OT win against Minnesota. Last game out Gustavsson allowed 4 goals on 28 shots in the win over Edmonton. It was his first win in a while. After his nice season opener he's conceded 16 goals on over 100 shots. On the other side Hart stopped 26/29 in a 3-2 loss to LV. He has been playing well thus far in the young season, and most are calling him a "pleasant surprise". The Flyers have value here as a home dog. Philadelphia stumbled in back to back road games, so the sight of their home arena will be nice to see. They are 2-0 at home this season as they dominated both the Canucks and Oilers. Defensively, they’ve been about as dominant as a team can be. They shut out the Canucks 2-0 and beat a high flying Edmonton team 4-1. Carter Hart has been stellar overall in net. With a low GAA, the net minder has stepped up already in some key spots throughout the first 5 games. He’s going to be the difference maker here and should be able to hold down this Wild offensive attack. Look for Phili to control things possession wise. In their recent games, both teams were in action on Tuesday. The Wild secured a 7-4 victory at home against Edmonton, while the Flyers suffered a 3-2 loss on the road against the Golden Knights. Some trends to note, the Wild are 3-6 SU in their L9 games, and they're 4-9 SU in their L13 games when playing on the road against Philadelphia. On the other side the Flyers are 7-2 SU in their L9 games at home. This is a nice matchup for the Flyers, and I see them winning before regulation time 4-2 or 3-2. I'm backing the Flyers at home tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 6* NHL ML Play |

10-26-23 | 76ers +6 v. Bucks | 117-118 | Win | 100 | 19 h 4 m | Show | |
76ers +6 Get ready for an exciting Thursday night NBA showdown this week as the 76ers take on the Bucks on opening night for each team. The action kicks off at 7:30 PM ET on TNT at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, WI. If you're into betting, here are the numbers you need: The Bucks are favored by -5.5 points according to the ATS odds, and the over/under is set at 224.5. For those looking to bet on the winner, the Bucks have -225 odds, while the 76ers stand at +205. The play for Thursday is the Bucks +6. There is so much buzz surrounding this Bucks team as they kick off their season against the 76ers on Wednesday. We're backing the visitors here, with the points. Road dogs! We've typically seen in the past, when new players join and there is a lot of hype, it takes a little bit of time to get the chemistry going. There's no doubt that this Bucks team is going to be one of the best in the league. But opening up against a very physical Philadelphia team is not going to be easy. The 76ers will play through Embiid, per usual. The big center can do it all and will frustrate this Milwaukee defense. This game is going to be close throughout, with the 76ers having a chance to steal it outright. Some trends to note, (obviously these trends date back to last season) Philadelphia are 9-4 SU in their L13 games, and they're 6-2 SU in their L8 games on the road. Milwaukee are 1-6 SU in their L7 games, and are 1-6 ATS in their L7. Back the 76ers on the road to start their season. They'll keep it close. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NBA ATS Play |

10-26-23 | Syracuse v. Virginia Tech -3 | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 19 h 56 m | Show | |
Va Tech -3 Get ready for an ACC showdown as the Hokies (3-4, 2-1 ACC, 3-3-1 ATS) take on the Orange (4-3, 0-3, 4-3 ATS) in college football Week 9. The odds for this game favor the Hokies at -3, with the total points expected at 47. If you're into straight-up betting, the odds stand at Orange +120 and Hokies -142. The Hokies have been on a decent streak, winning two out of their last three games, while the Orange are on a three-game losing skid in ACC conference play. Both teams had a bye in Week 8. In their previous outings, the Hokies secured a solid 30-13 victory against WF, while the Orange suffered a tough 41-3 loss to the Seminoles. Virginia Tech is the play on Thursday! We get a small line here on the Hokies, at home. Virginia Tech comes in 3-1 this season at home and with a night game on a Thursday, this crowd should be rocking to Enter Sandman. The Orange have just been far too inconsistent to trust as well. They come 4-3 overall, but they're just 1-2 on the road. They limp into play after being just knocked around by the Tar Heels and the Seminoles in the past two weeks. We've seen them struggle at times on the defensive end, which knocks them out of their rhythm on the other side of the ball. Virginia Tech should be able to dictate the pace here. Look for them to wear down this Syracuse defensive line and eventually start to get a big push up front. Weather looks good call it high 60's low 70's at game time, and no chance of rain. Some trends to note, Syracuse are 1-5 ATS in their L6 games on the road, and they're 2-4 ATS in their L6 games when playing on the road against Va. Tech. The Hokies are the better team here and they're laying a small number. Back the Hokies on Thursday night! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CFB ATS Play |

10-25-23 | UTEP +3.5 v. Sam Houston State | 37-34 | Win | 100 | 20 h 57 m | Show | |
UTEP +3.5 On Wednesday it's a Conference USA football matchup featuring the UTEP Miners, currently holding a 2-6 record overall and 1-3 in their conference. They had a disheartening 28-7 defeat to New Mexico State last week. On the other hand, Sam Houston, with a winless 0-7 record overall and 0-4 in conference play, is seeking their first victory after a tough 33-27 overtime loss at home to FIU. The game is scheduled to kick off at 8 p.m. ET at Elliott T. Bowers Stadium. According to the current live odds, Sam Houston is favored by 3.5 points, and the over/under for total points scored is set at 36. For those interested in straight-up betting, the moneyline odds stand at -177 for Sam Houston and +148 for UTEP. We're on UTEP here, as they get points on the road. This is the pure fact off taking a team going against a winless team and getting points. Sam Houston State is 0-7 this year and while they've continued to be close in games, they still can't find a way to win. They've continued to fail in clutch time and with another game expected to be close, we're going to see this one go either way. UTEP isn't a pushover either. While they have just 2 wins, one of those was a win a few weeks ago on the road. They have played well at times on the defensive end and will lean on their defense to make some big plays here. Look for this to be close throughout, with the points being the move here. Some trends to note, UTEP are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games played in October. On the other side, Sam Houston State are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games, and they're 0-5 SU in their last 5 games against an opponent in CUSA. Back UTEP ATS on Humpday! Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-25-23 | Cavs v. Nets UNDER 221.5 | 114-113 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 44 m | Show | |
Under 221.5 In the season opener for the 2023-24 season, scheduled for Wednesday, at 7:30 PM ET from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, we see the Cavaliers taking on the Nets. The Cavs are favored by -1.5, while we're seeing the Over/Under set at 221.5. The Cavs won 2/3 games in the 2022/23 season. 116-114, and 115-109, and then they lost 125-117. We're on the Under here as the Nets and Cavs tip off their seasons. Cleveland (the #4 team in the East last season) comes in with high hopes once again after making the playoffs last year. However, it was an early first round exit for them as they look to avenge that. The key for them last year was on the defensive end. They allowed 109.9 defensive efficiency. They also weren't in much of a hurry either. They slowed a lot of things down and played at one of the slowest paces in the NBA. Brooklyn isn't going to overpower anyone either. After all their pieces were dealt to break the team up throughout the last few years, this is a team that battles a lot of inconsistencies. We're going to see this one played at a very slow pace, with nothing easy at the rim. A lot of good players on the court Wednesday night will cancel each other out! Some trends to note. Under is 5-0 in Cavaliers last 5 games following a straight up loss, and 5-0 in the Cavs last 5 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Plus the Under is 7-0 in Cavaliers last 7 overall. Cleveland Cavaliers injury report: Ricky Rubio (out), Jarrett Allen (questionable) Brooklyn Nets injury report: Dennis Smith Jr. (day-to-day), Dariq Whitehead (day-to-day) Back the Under.

10-25-23 | Celtics v. Knicks UNDER 225.5 | 108-104 | Win | 100 | 19 h 39 m | Show | |
Under 225.5 A highly anticipated opening night NBA matchup between the Celtics and the Knicks is scheduled to take place at Madison Square Garden Wednesday, tip off at 7:00 PM ET. Here are the NBA odds for the game: The Celtics are favored with a -2.5 point spread, and the Moneyline odds stand at +120 for the Knicks and -135 for the Celtics (for those betting on the straight-up winner). Additionally, the Total for the game is set at 225.5 points for the Over/Under, with an initial opening line of 222.5 points. Anytime these two teams meet it becomes quite the interesting matchup. Neither team really likes the other and it opens up a very hard fought game between the two sides. Defensive typically dominates this matchup for a few reasons. The first is the intensity side. Given the rivalry, you typically see just hard nosed, high pressure defense both ways. With this being the opening game as well, that should be the case once again here. Also, Boston is one of the best in terms of defense. They rarely allow anything easy and they will pick up the intensity a lot here in this matchup. Some trends to note, obviously dating back to the 22/23 season the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Boston's L5 games, and the total has gone UNDER in 8 of NY's L11 games, and 7 of their L10 vs. Eastern conference teams. Back the UNDER on Humpday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* NBA O/U Play |

10-24-23 | Suns v. Warriors | 108-104 | Loss | -107 | 31 h 20 m | Show | |
Warriors PK (-107) NBA Opening Night Play! (Feels good to say that) Tonight's 2023 NBA opener features the Warriors taking on the Suns. It's set for 10:00 PM EST at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California. Here are the NBA betting lines: Suns -103 | Warriors -117 on the ML for straight up bettors, with the NBA ATS betting odds favoring the Warriors by -1 point. The over/under for this one is 232.5. Looking back at last season's matchups, the Suns dominated, winning three out of four games with scores of 134-105, 130-119, and 125-113, while losing only once, 123-112. There’s some new faces in new places in the NBA. One of those happened to fall into Golden State and you know Chris Paul will be geared up in this one. Paul has had a ton of Opening Night success throughout his career and has far more incentive in this one now. He will be trying to post his 9th career opening night double double against his former team. Him and Dario Saric provide this team with more depth, especially with Green sidelined right now. Curry and Thompson come on healthy which is huge for this side as well. This should be a close game throughout, but the Warriors have the playmakers, especially at home here. Some trends to note, (dating back to last season obviously) Phoenix are 2-5 ATS in their L7 games, and 1-5 ATS on the road. On the other side, Golden State are 16-3 SU in their L19 games at home, and they're also 5-1 ATS in their L6 games when playing at home against the Suns. I just can't see Chris Paul NOT being up for this one. We're backing Steph and the Warriors at PK odds. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* NBA ATS Play |

10-24-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Red Wings -137 | 5-4 | Loss | -137 | 25 h 38 m | Show | |
Red Wings -137 Probable Goalies: Grubauer (0-4 3.03 GAA, 0.896 SV%) vs. Husso (3-1, 3.03 GAA, 0.901 SV%) Get ready for an exciting NHL showdown this Tuesday, part of a jam-packed day of NHL action. It's the Red Wings (5-1) facing off against the Kraken (1-4-1) at 8:15 PM ET. The game will be held at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan, and you can catch it on ESPN+. Here are the latest NHL betting odds for this matchup: Red Wings (-137) and Kraken (+114) on the Moneyline, with the Over/Under set at 6.5 goals. The Red Wings are the favorites on the puck line (-1.5). In their head-to-head history, the Seattle Kraken have a 3-0-1 record against the Red Wings. However, Detroit emerged victorious in their most recent encounter, winning 5-4 back in March. In an effort to NOT play any puckline games in 2023/24 (my own personal goal) I've also put a -145 limit on myself for ML's in the NHL. The Red Wings / Kraken just gets in under the wire on Tuesday. A full slate of NHL games on tap. (Possibly more winners coming) The Wings are hotter than anyone right now. Detroit comes in 5-1 on the season and they’re doing it with many different factors. They’ve held the last two opponents to 2 goals each, while compiling a combined 11 as they are rolling right now. Offensively, they’re getting things done with their ability to attack the net. They’ve controlled the possession and haven’t been shy to put the puck in front of the net. It’s giving them a lot of success as they’re crashing the goal and putting multiple shots on. Seattle is trending in the opposite direction, as they’ve limped out of the gates. Things have been a struggle on both ends of the ice and they are going to be blitzed here by this Wings pressure. Some trends to note, the Kraken are 1-6 SU in their L7 games, and 0-6 SU in their L6 games on the road. On the flip side Detroit are 5-0 SU in their L5 games, plus they're 6-2 SU in their L8 games vs. Pacific division teams. Back the Red Wings on Tuesday -137. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-24-23 | Diamondbacks v. Phillies OVER 8.5 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 9 m | Show | |
Over 8.5 Probable Pitchers: ARI - B. Pfaadt-R vs PHI - R. Suarez-L Get ready for the 2023 NLCS showdown! Game 7 is upon us, and it's happening at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. The victor secures a spot in the World Series. The first pitch is set for 8:07 p.m. ET, and you can catch the action on TBS. The (84-78) Diamondbacks are taking on the (90-72) Phillies. MLB Moneyline Odds: Diamondbacks +140 | Phillies -167. If you prefer the Run Line, it's Diamondbacks +1.5 | Phillies -1.5. And for those eyeing the over/under, the total betting line is 8.5. Another Game 7 and we get two starting pitchers who come off career outings. However, we’re backing the Over here as these offenses should find plenty of success against them this time around. Rookie Brandon Pfaadt has a rough stretch during the regular season and is now going to be asked to pitch against this offense and this crowd. We should see the Phillies make him work far more and put a lot of traffic on the bases. Pfaadt had no impact on the result in Thursday's NLCS Game 3, where they won 2-1 against the Phillies. Pfaadt allowed two hits in 5.2 innings and struck out nine. Suarez gets a hot Diamondbacks offense that has a lot of confidence right now themselves. Arizona put up great at bats and their approach was top notch in Game 6. They’re going to carry that into this one here and string together hits against Suarez. Suarez also had no influence on the outcome in Game 3. Suarez's stats for that day were 5.1 innings pitched, three hits, and one walk. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 12 of Arizona's L17 games when playing on the road against Phili. On the other side the total has gone OVER in 12 of Philadelphia's L18 games against Arizona, and 8 of the Phils L11 games against an opponent in the NL West. Get ready for some thrilling baseball action! We're on the OVER tonight. I'm expecting a shootout at the O.K. Corral. Enjoy this classic. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* NLCS Game 7 O/U Play |

10-24-23 | Stars v. Penguins +109 | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
Penguins +109 Probable Goalies: Jake Oettinger (2-0-1, 1.58 GAA, 0.943 SV%) vs. Tristan Jarry (1-3, 2.81 GAA, 0.892 SV%) (Both Unconfirmed) Get set for an NHL face-off tonight at 7:30 PM ET on ESPN+ at PPG Paints Arena. It's a busy day of NHL games, and we've got the (3-0-1) Stars going head-to-head with the (2-3) Penguins. The Stars are riding high after a thrilling 5-4 overtime victory against the Flyers, while the Penguins stumbled in their last match, losing 4-2 to the Blues. Here are the latest NHL betting odds for this matchup: Moneyline - Stars (-115) vs. Penguins (+109), Over/Under at 6.5. A full slate of NHL games on tap. (Possibly more winners coming) In their head-to-head history, over their L10 games the Pens own a 6-2-2 advantage. Averaging 2.8GPG to the Stars 1.9GPG. Last season, these teams each won one game on the road, with the Penguins taking a 2-1 victory and the Stars securing a 3-2 win. We're on the PENS ML tonight. This is too valuable of a line to pass up on. The Pens come in a home underdog which is great value in this spot. Pittsburgh made a lot of moves this off-season with their roster and in the front office as they know this year they have to fight the ship. After a rough start, this is a huge game for them at home. In recent years, they’ve been notorious for being a good home team. They actually matchup well with the Stars too. Dallas isn’t known to be a team that will attack relentlessly. Pittsburgh can pick apart their possession game and force turnovers, leading to counter attacks. The Penguins offense and defense have been great thus far in the young season, it's just their goaltending that has been letting them down. This is a game everyone will be up for so I'm expecting a best effort tonight out of Jarry The Stars look like the better team right now but some home cooking is just what the Penguins need to get right, and tonight they'll grab a W on home ice. Some trends to note, the Penguins are 1-0 this year as an underdog. Dallas are 3-6 SU in their last 9 games against the Pens, and 1-5 SU in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Pittsburgh. Back the Pens as a home dog on Tuesday. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-24-23 | New Mexico State v. Louisiana Tech OVER 52 | 27-24 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 40 m | Show | |
OVER 52 Get ready for a big CUSA showdown on Tuesday night at 7:00 PM EDT. It's happening at Joe Aillet Stadium in Ruston, LA, and it's the New Mexico State (5-3, 6-2 ATS) facing off against Louisiana Tech (3-5, 3-5 ATS). You can catch the action on CBS Sports Network. The latest college football betting odds: The Aggies are the favorite with a -2.5 spread (ATS), and for those going straight up, the moneyline sits with the Bulldogs at (-128) and New Mexico State (+108). The Over/Under (Total) for the game is set at 51.5 points. This is the kind of game where we should see a plenty of back and forth action. Louisiana Tech has seen their last two games go above 50 points as they have struggled defensively. They’ve given up a combined 66 points and because of that, they’ve had to pick the pace up offensively. That’s going to be the case once again here as this offense has really opened up the playbook with taking chances down field. New Mexico State has continued to flourish themselves offensively. They will utilize their run game to open up passing lanes. Look for tempo at times from both teams and for big plays to come each way. A trend to note, the total has gone OVER in 11 of the Bulldogs' L12 games at home. Plus 1 FACT: The Bulldogs have not lost to New Mexico State since 2006. We're backing the OVER on Tuesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CFB O/U Play |

10-24-23 | PSV Eindhoven v. RC Lens OVER 2.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -135 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
Over 2.5 Get ready for an exciting Champions League showdown Tuesday at 3pm ET at Stade Bollaert-Delelis. RC Lens may be leading the group, but they're having a tough time in their domestic league, with a recent 0-0 draw at Le Harve putting them in 15th place in Ligue 1. Meanwhile, PSV hasn't secured a win in the group yet, losing their first match to Arsenal and drawing 2-2 against Sevilla. This leaves PSV at the bottom of the group, just three points behind the leaders. Lens has been finding the net in three of their last four games, while PSV has scored in all of their last five matches, conceding goals in three of them. Bet on the OVER! Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-24-23 | Bayern Munich v. Galatasaray OVER 3.5 | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 4 h 40 m | Show | |
Galatasaray vs Bayern Munich Over Galatasaray (1 win, 1 draw) face Bayern Munich (2-0-0) Tuesday, in the UEFA Champions League's 3rd group stage match. Bayern is on a winning streak, triumphing over FC Copenhagen 2-1 away and defeating ManU 4-3 at home in their previous Champions League matchday. Galatasaray worked hard to make it to the group stage, going through the qualifying and play-off rounds. They started their group stage with a 2-2 draw against FC Copenhagen at home and then secured a 3-2 victory against ManU on the road. Galatasaray has scored 5 and allowed 4, Bayern has scored 6 so far in CL. Expect goals. Back the Over Good luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* Champions League O/U Play |

10-23-23 | Rangers v. Astros -122 | 11-4 | Loss | -122 | 10 h 3 m | Show | |
Astros -122 Probable Pitchers: TEX - M. Scherzer-R vs HOU (13-7) ERA: 3.96 - C. Javier-R (12-5) ERA: 4.33 Get set for an epic Game 7 clash in the 2023 ALCS! The series is locked at 3-3, and the (90-72) Rangers go head-to-head with the Astros (90-72) at 8:03 ET in Minute Maid Park, Houston, TX. MLB odds: Rangers at +107, Astros at -126 on the Moneyline. The Run Line odds are Rangers +1.5 and Astros -1.5. Plus, the gambling total is set at O/U 9. Houston are 6-4 in their L10, the Rangers are 7-3. Houston is the move as Game 7 takes place Monday night. The Astros were knocked around in Game 6 and now it’s all hands on deck with the season on the line for both teams. Christian Javier gets the ball for the Astros and he’s stepped up all postseason long. The RH already has a win over Texas this series, going 5.2 innings, allowing just 2 runs. Come to think of it, he's only allowed 2 runs in his last 10 2/3. He’s come up big for them all season long and now he has a chance to send them to the World Series. He finished the season 10-5, 4.56 ERA, 159 strikeouts, and 62 walks. Max Scherzer counters and he just hasn’t been himself. Battling injuries, Scherzer returned and got knocked around by Houston for 5 runs in 4 innings of work and 63 total pitches. He’s continued to work his way back but this is not the spot you want to be continuing battling back. Can you rely on Scherzer tonight? I can't. Some trends to note, Texas are 4-10 SU in their last 14 games against Houston. On the other side Houston are 10-4 SU in their last 14 games. We're backing the Stros at home in Game 7 on Monday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* ALCS Game 7 ML Play |

10-23-23 | Fulham v. Tottenham Hotspur UNDER 3.25 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 4 h 37 m | Show | |
UNDER 3.25 Spurs aim to keep their winning streak going as they face Fulham in a London derby. In the English Premier League, Spurs (6-2-0) and Arsenal are the sole undefeated teams. The game kicks off at 3 p.m. ET at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Check out the EPL Betting Lines: Spurs vs. Fulham spread: Spurs -1.5 (+125), over/under: 3.5 goals, money line: Spurs -220, Fulham +500, Draw +320. We have a big of history to look back at in this fixture. 3 or fewer goals scored in their L6 head to head matchups. 2 or fewer in 4 of those L6. Bissouma out for Spurs, 3-4 injuries for Fulham. Fulham have ONLY scored 9 goals in their L17 games vs. Spurs. Back the UNDER on Monday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* EPL O/U Play |

10-22-23 | Dolphins v. Eagles -3 | 17-31 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
Eagles -3 Tonight on Sunday Night Football, two former Alabama Crimson Tide teammates, Tagovailoa and Hurts, meet for the first time in their NFL careers. The Dolphins (5-1, 5-1 ATS) clash with the Eagles (5-1, 3-2-1 ATS) at 8:20 PM ET in Lincoln Financial Field, airing on NBC. Philadelphia is favored at -1.5 ATS, while for straight-up bettors, Miami offers +109, and Philadelphia stands at -133 on the ML. As for the NFL Betting Total, it's set at O/U 52. We’re backing the Eagles on Sunday night football. Miami’s defense has had its issues and they will have their hands full with this Phili attack. Philadelphia welcomes in the Dolphins and it’s always tough to go into Phili and come out with a win. The Eagles are in a full bounce back spot too. They were upset by the Jets last week and we’ve seen this team rarely let losses pile up. This is a game where they can feed off the home crowd, at night. Look for the Eagles to open the playbook early too, knowing they have to find momentum to erase last week. This offense can strike in so many different ways and they’re worth playing here. The Eagles are 12-1 in games played in Sept/Oct the L2 years, which is of course the best record over that time in the NFL. The loss? Was to the Jets (last week). Weather won't trouble the Eagles, but it might be a tad chilly for Miami with a forecasted 10mph wind and game-time temperatures between 45-50°F. Some trends to note, Miami are 2-6 ATS in their L8 games against Philadelphia. On the other side, Philadelphia are 5-1 SU in their L6 games, and are 4-1 SU in their L5 games at home, and they're 10-4 ATS in their L14 games against an opponent in the AFC East. Back the Eagles to cover the 3 on SNF. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play |

10-22-23 | Steelers v. Rams -3 | 24-17 | Loss | -110 | 125 h 29 m | Show | |
Rams -3 The Steelers (3-2, 3-2 ATS) take on the Rams (3-3, 4-1-1 ATS) this Sunday at SoFi Stadium in NFL Week 7 action. Kickoff is at 4:05 p.m. EST, and you can watch it on FOX. In the NFL Week 7 odds, the Rams are favored by 3.5 points over the Steelers. The moneyline odds show the Rams at -175 and the Steelers at +145. The total points for the game are set at 42.5. The Rams have value here, at home. Los Angeles comes in after beating down the Cardinals last week. They were able to pick up yards in chunks and really had Arizona on their heels early. On the other side, Pittsburgh has been atrocious offensively. They rank 27th in yards per play and 32nd in red zone offense. They have had so many issues top to bottom even just moving the ball. This is going to be another game where they struggle to get anything going. Look for the Rams to blitz all night long and really put Pickett in some trouble. The Steelers had a bye week in NFL Week 6, while the Rams are coming off a solid 26-9 win against the Arizona Cardinals. These teams have clashed 27 times in their history, including one playoff game. The Steelers have won 10 times, the Rams 15, and they've tied twice. Some trends to note, the Steelers are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games when playing on the road against LA. The Rams are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games, are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games at home. Plus if you like this sort of trend the Rams are 5-0 SU in their L5 games played in week 7. The Steelers don't have an answer for Kupp, and he can win this one by himself. Back the Rams to take down the Steel Curtain on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play |

10-22-23 | Cardinals v. Seahawks -7.5 | 10-20 | Win | 100 | 48 h 12 m | Show | |
Seahawks -7.5 Sunday the Cardinals (1-5 SU, 3-3 ATS) will be going head-to-head with the Seahawks (3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS) at 4:05 ET at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington. The current Week 7 ATS Betting Lines lean in favor of Seattle, with a spread ranging from -7.5 to -8 points. When it comes to the NFL Moneyline Odds, Arizona stands at +300, Seattle -385. The NFL Betting Total is set at O/U 44.5. Both teams faced losses in Week 6, as the Seahawks fell 17-13 to the Bengals, and the Cardinals suffered a 26-9 loss to the Rams. We’re on the Seahawks, laying the number. Seattle is just far better than Arizona. The Cardinals come in with 3 straight losses in games they didn’t have any sort of chance in. Defensively they rank near the bottom in almost every category and they haven’t been able to slow anyone down. Seattle is in the midst of looking to rebound after dropping a tough one to the Bengals last week. Prior to that they had won 3 in a row themselves and they should be able to dictate a lot in this game. Look for them to control the possession clock and sustain drives, which should open up passing lanes for Smith to find Lockett (who I expect to have a big game), & Metcalf down field all day. I also think the run game with Charbonnet and Walker III will run up the stats in this one. Some trends to note, Arizona are 1-12 SU in their last 13 games., and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against Seattle, finally they're 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against the Seahawks. A deeper dive into their history reveals that the Seahawks and Cardinals have clashed 48 times, with Seattle winning 25 games, the Cardinals 22, and a tie. Last year, they met twice, with the Seahawks prevailing in both matchups by a 10-point margin each time. Sunday weather shouldn't be a factor, mid 50's with a 25% chance of rain. (Normal for the PNW) We're backing the Seahawks by -7.5 on Sunday in Seattle. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL ATS Play |

10-22-23 | Raiders -3 v. Bears | 12-30 | Loss | -110 | 122 h 15 m | Show | |
Raiders -3 The Raiders (3-3, 3-3 ATS) will face the Bears (1-5, 1-4-1 ATS) this Sunday at Soldier Field during NFL Week 7 action. You can catch the game at 1pm ET on FOX. The betting odds give the Raiders a 3-point advantage as the favorites, with Las Vegas at -155 on the moneyline and Chicago at +130. The over/under point total is set at 38.5. In their recent games, the Raiders secured a 21-17 victory against the Patriots, while the Bears suffered a 19-13 defeat at the hands of the Vikings. We’re on the raiders here in this one. Las Vegas takes on a beaten and bruised Bears team. They will start undrafted free agent Tyson Bagent in this one. Fields continues to recover from a dislocated right thumb. The Raiders will also be on the backup train, with likely Brian Hoyer as their option. From their perspective, at least Hoyer does have a lot of NFL experience and won’t be overwhelmed in this spot. Expect them to lean on the run game here and give Hoyer some short options early when it comes to passing the ball. Defensively, they will blitz all day and try to rattled Bagent. Some trends to note, Chicago are 1-15 SU in their last 16 games, 0-10 SU in their last 10 games at home, and they're 2-11-1 ATS in their last 14 games. These two teams have faced off 16 times in their history, with both the Bears and the Raiders winning 8 games each. The Bears' last triumph was a 20-9 victory back in October 2021. Back the RAAAAAIIIIIIDDDDERS on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play |

10-22-23 | Bills -7.5 v. Patriots | 25-29 | Loss | -110 | 45 h 22 m | Show | |
Bills -7.5 In this week's NFL betting spotlight, the Bills (4-2, 3-3 ATS) will clash with the struggling Patriots (1-5, 1-5 ATS). The game is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 22nd, with kickoff at 1:00 ET, taking place at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA. As for the odds in NFL Week 7, the Bills are favored with an -7.5 to 8-point spread, -396 for the ML, while the Patriots are the underdogs at +309. The over/under is set at 41.5. The Bills are the move here. The Pats are returning home following a tough 21-17 loss in Las Vegas, aiming to reverse their fortunes. Meanwhile, the Bills are riding the momentum of a close 17-9 victory against the Giants on Sunday night. It's worth noting that the Patriots are currently on a three-game losing streak at home, and last season, the Bills had the edge with a 2-0 record in their head-to-head matchups. New England is just an absolute wreck. This team has dropped 3 in a row and they look awful on both sides of the ball. They haven’t been able to slow anyone down when it comes to the big play and offensively they just look off. Buffalo hasn’t played up to their standards either, but they’ve found ways to get timely plays when they need to. The Bills survived the Giants last week, but should find way more success here when it comes to moving the ball. Josh Allen and this offense will open things up early here, as they attempt to get their rhythm back. They’re just too powerful and have far more of an edge in this matchup. Some trends to note, Buffalo are 12-3 SU in their L15 games, 5-1 ATS in their L6 games against the Pats, and 6-1 SU in their L7 games against the Pats as well. On the other side, New England are 1-6 SU in their L7 games, and 0-6 ATS in their L6 games at home. These two teams have a storied history, having faced off 127 times, with the Patriots winning 77 times, the Bills claiming victory 49 times, and one game ending in a tie. The Bills have beaten the Patriots in 4 of the last 5 h2h. They've won by 12, 14, 30, and 12 in those 4 wins. Back the Bills in Foxboro on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NFL ATS Play |

10-21-23 | Blue Jackets v. Wild UNDER 6.5 | 5-4 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 35 m | Show | |
UNDER 6.5 Starting Goalies: (Likely) Elvis Merzlikins (1-1, 1.84 GAA, 0.95 SV%) vs. Marc Andre Fleury (1-1, 3.53 GAA, 0.870 SV%) Locking this in early in case the line gets beat down to 6. Saturday the Columbus Blue Jackets (1-2) and the Minnesota Wild (2-2) lock horns at the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Here are the current NHL lines: On the Moneyline, the Wild are at -215, while the Jackets stand at +191. On the Puck Line, the Wild hold a -1.5 spread at (+113), and the Blue Jackets at +1.5 (-130). The total (O/U) is set at 6.5. In between the pipes, Fleury, for the Wild, saved 20 of 25 shots in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Kings. He shone in his home province the previous game, but the joy was short-lived. I have confidence in him; after all, he had a 24-16-4 record with a 2.85 GAA and .908 SV% last season. For CBUS, we assume Merz is starting on Saturday unless we hear otherwise (we'll update it here). Regardless, Merzlikins is off to a great start with a 1.84 GAA and a .950 SV% in 2 games. He faces the Flames on tonight and aims to erase memories of his 7-18-2 record with a 4.23 GAA and .876 SV% from last year. In past NHL matchups, Minnesota has been dominant, boasting a 7-1-2 record in their last 10 games against Columbus. The Wild are scoring an average of 3.10GPG, compared to the Blue Jackets' 2.30GPG. Back to back games for the Blue Jackets and having some real issues in goal plus after their game tonight vs. Calgary they have to fly to Minnesota. (A 2 hour flight). We're banking on one of these teams being really tired. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Columbus' L6 games. Plus, the total has gone UNDER in all 5 of Minnesota's L5 against Columbus, and the total has gone UNDER in 4 of the Wild's L6 games at home.. My money is on the UNDER in this one on Saturday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NHL O/U Play |

10-21-23 | Utah +7 v. USC | 34-32 | Win | 100 | 99 h 23 m | Show | |
Utah +7 A Pac-12 showdown Saturday! It's a classic in the making as the #16 USC Trojans (6-1, 2-5 ATS) square off against the #14 Utah Utes (5-1, 3-2-1 ATS) at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The game kicks off at 8:00 PM ET and takes place in LA, airing on FOX. Here are the latest betting odds: USC (-7) as the favored team, USC (-253) on the Moneyline, and Utah (+205) for straight bets. The Over/Under Total stands at 56. These two teams clashed in a memorable showdown last year during the Pac-12 Championship Game, with the Utes clinching a second consecutive victory at 47-24. USC boasts a strong offense, but Utah's defense is a force to be reckoned with, ranking 3rd in the nation in EPA per play. In their historical series, USC holds a 12-9 lead, with their first meeting dating all the way back to 1915, resulting in a 20-13 win for Utah. This is an interesting number. Utah has been without a starting QB all season, but they have shown they can compete with the best of them. Combine that with the Trojans coming in off an embarrassing loss to Notre Dame last week and this is a tale of two different sides right now. The Trojans had a lot of flaws exposed in their loss to the Fighting Irish. They were unable to move the ball like they're used to and their inability to slow teams down defensively is starting to become a big issue. Utah can work the run game and open up passing lanes, as every team for the most part that has played USC thus far has lit them up, especially in the secondary. Some trends to note, Utah are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games, and they're 4-2 SU in their last 6 games against USC. For USC they're 1-4 ATS in the L5, and 2-5 ATS in their L7 Saturday matchups. At the end of the day I think Utah is a better team than Notre Dame. Just my .2c. AND look what the Irish did to SC. We're backing the Utes in this Pac 12 clash. The occasion will NOT be too big for them. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB ATS Play |

10-21-23 | Maple Leafs v. Lightning UNDER 7 | 4-3 | Push | 0 | 25 h 4 m | Show | |
UNDER 7 Probable Goalies: Ilya Samsonov (2-1, 3.67 GAA, 0.861 SV%) vs. Jonas Johansson (2-1-1, 3.53 GAA, 0.894 SV%) (*Samsonov is Unconfirmed as of Friday afternoon.*) Locking this one in early before the public hammers the line down to 6.5. A Saturday NHL showdown between the Leafs and Lightning happening at 7:00PM ET in Tampa, Florida's Amalie Arena. NHL betting lines: On the ML, Toronto is sitting at -123, while Tampa Bay is at +100. For the PL, Toronto is favored with -1.5 (+178), and Tampa Bay is the underdog at +1.5 (-221). The Over/Under Total is set at 7 goals. Looking back at their recent games, these two matched up 3x last year. The Leafs had the upper hand, going 2-0-1. They secured W's with scores of 4-3 and 4-1 but suffered a close 4-3 loss. On Saturday, Johansson will grab his 5th start out of the last 6, where he has faced 132 shots and allowed 14 goals. The Leafs had a strong start with 13 goals in their first two games but have recently struggled, managing only 2 goals in each of their last two. In their last game, Johansson secured a 4-3 victory over Van City with 26 saves. Meanwhile, Samsonov's recent performance was commendable, making 21 saves in a 3-1 loss to the Panthers on Thursday. Despite his solid effort, his Leaf teammates faltered in the defensive zone. Samsonov had previously won his first two starts and boasted an impressive record, with 27 wins, 10 losses, and 5 ties, a 2.33 GAA, and a .919 save percentage in 42 starts last year. It's just too hard to trust the Lightning right now. They have been far too inconsistent and their inability to put pressure on net has been alarming. Injuries have also played a role for the Tampa Bay Lightning as this game should be played at a slower pace for them. Look for a tightly played game where both teams will try to slow the tempo down. Knowing they don't want to get into. track meet with one another, possession will be the big key here. Look for a lot of time spent working the puck around the zone, not allowing either side to get out on any counter attacks. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 9 of Toronto's L11 games, and the UNDER has hit in 4 of the Leafs L5. We're backing the UNDER 7 in this one. If the books want to give us 7, we'll take it. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NHL O/U Play |

On the defensive front, the Chanticleers allow an average of 23PPG, placing them 71st in the nation, whereas the Red Wolves have a less stellar defense, allowing 36PPG and sitting at 119th. In their recent matchup, the Chanticleers triumphed over App State 27-24. Meanwhile, the Red Wolves faced a tough defeat, suffering a 37-3 loss against Troy. I've got my popcorn ready, and I can't wait to see how ARKST plans to slow down McCall, Bennett, Pinckney and the rest of the CC offense. The Wolves are honestly one of the worst defensive teams in the country, 260+ passing yards allowed per game, 190+ rush yards per game, plus they've given up a CRAPTON of points this year. CC's offense will have a hay-day here. Troy dominated the Wolves, and Raynor was running for his life. Queue the CC defense. They're licking their chops to get after Raynor on Saturday. CC is feeling good about life right now, and you know they want to keep the train-a-rollin' vs. the Wolves. Some trends to note, CC are 4-2 ATS in their L6, and 10-0 SU in their L10 vs. West division opponents. On the other side ARK St. are 5-12 SU in their L17, and 1-5-1 ATS in their L7 at home, and finally they're 1-7 in their L8 vs. Sun Belt teams. This matchup promises an exciting clash of strengths and strategies on the gridiron. I can't wait to see this one actually. We're on the Chanticleers! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play |

10-21-23 | Texas -23 v. Houston | 31-24 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 16 m | Show | |
Texas -23 #8 Texas (5-1, 3-3 ATS) face Houston (3-3, 3-3 ATS) Saturday at 4:00 ET in Houston's TDECU Stadium, shown on FOX. Here are the current Week 8 ATS Betting Lines: Texas -22.5, with Moneyline Odds of Texas -2097 and Houston +980. The Total is O/U 61.5. Historically, Houston has a record of 7-16-2 against UT, with a home record of 3-7-1. Last season, they didn't play each other. Houston comes off a thrilling 41-39 win over West Virginia, while Texas is back after a bye week, recovering from a tough loss to OU in the Red River Rivalry. We're on Texas here, laying the points. This is a total mismatch on Saturday. The Longhorns are just too powerful when it comes to the offensive side. The Cougars simply won't be able to keep up. Texas had a full week to think about their loss to Oklahoma and they're going to come out with some frustration. They were unable to get a stop late and now they will take on one of the worst defenses in the Big 12. Houston has been torched left and right, allowing many big plays to opposing Qbs. Texas is going to come into this one with a wide open playbook. They're going to take plenty of chances downfield, especially early on. Houston's defense ranks near the bottom in a lot of categories and those will be shown on Saturday here. Some trends to note, Texas are 5-1 SU in their L6 games. On the other side, Houston are 1-8 SU in their L9 games against an opponent in the Big 12, also, Houston are 2-6 ATS in their L8 games played on a Saturday when playing at home. There's been a few "battles of Texas" this week in the sports world. Saturday we're on TEXAS (UT) to take down Houston. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* CFB ATS Play |

Wisconsin -2.5 In Week 8 the (4-2, 2-4 ATS) Badgers face off against the (3-4, 1-6 ATS) Fighting Illini in a Big 10 showdown scheduled for Saturday at 3:30 ET. The battleground for this fierce clash will be Memorial Stadium in Champaign, IL.

The Week 8 ATS betting lines have Wisconsin as the favorites with a -2.5 point spread, accompanied by moneyline odds of -133 for Wisconsin and +111 for Illinois. The over/under for the game is set at 42.5 points. Wisconsin enters this matchup hungry for revenge, especially after their previous encounter resulted in a resounding 34-10 victory for Illinois. The Badgers have to come out with a better gameplan here. We do get a nice line as they will go with their backup QB in this spot on Saturday in Illinois. The good thing here is that this Illinois side has far too many problems on both sides of the ball. The Badgers are going to lean on this run game to wear down Illinois. Combine that with their defense still being one of the best in the conference and they have a huge edge in this spot. This should be an ugly game, but a game in which is played to the Badgers liking. They love to slow the tempo down and wear the opposition out with their push up front. If they can get that going early, it's going to be a long day for the Fighting Illini. Some trends to note, Wisconsin are 5-2 SU in their L7, and are 11-2 in their L13 vs. the Illini. Illinois are 1-7 ATS in their L8, and 0-6 ATS in their L6 at home. Wisconsin maintains a series record lead of 44-39-7. Over the L10 between these two school's the Badgers own an 8-2 advantage. We're riding the Badgers on Saturday in B10 action.

10-21-23 | Penn State v. Ohio State -3.5 | Top | 12-20 | Win | 100 | 92 h 42 m | Show |
Ohio State -3.5 In the upcoming week, there's a significant clash in the Big 10 as two unbeaten teams from the East Division face off. #3 Ohio State (6-0, 3-2-1 ATS) will be hosting #7 Penn State (6-0, 6-0 ATS, 3-0 Big Ten) on Saturday at 12 p.m. ET, and you can catch it on the Fox network. Let's take a look at the betting numbers: Moneyline (ML) shows Penn State at +164 and Ohio State at -200. Against the spread (ATS) favors Ohio State by -5.5 (-102), and the Over/Under (O/U) stands at 48.5. Last week, Penn State dominated the Minutemen with a score of 63-0, while the Buckeyes faced the Boilermakers, defeating them 41-7. Ohio State holds a strong historical record against Penn State, leading 23-14, with 6 consecutive wins and victory in 10 of their last 11 meetings. PSU's last win in Happy Valley dates back to 2016. We see the value lays with OSU this week! We love -3.5, we're good with -4. Ohio State has dominated this head to head series. Coming into Saturday, the Buckeyes have won 6 straight in this head to head series and 11 of the last 12 overall against Penn State. The Buckeyes will look to gain some key pieces back from injury, which includes Henderson, Williams, and Trayanum. All 3 are banged up, but when healthy they are the most dangerous trio in the backfield in the nation. The Buckeyes are just going to feed off this home crowd energy and look to set the tone early. Ohio State has been at their best when they can establish a run game, which opens things up for this passing side. This will be by far Penn State's hardest opponent to date and they're just going to have too much to overcome. Some trends to note, Penn State are 0-5 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against the Buckeyes, and they're 0-6 SU in their last 6 games against Ohio State. On the other side the Ohio State are 16-1 SU in their last 17 games at home, and they're 12-2-1 ATS in their last 15 games played in October. PSU lost to the Buckeyes last year 44-31. We're on the Buckeyes on Saturday in this huge Big 10 matchup. Good Luck, Razor Ray. *RARE* Saturday 10* CFB Top ATS Play |

10-20-23 | Phillies v. Diamondbacks OVER 9.5 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
Over 9.5 Probable Pitchers: PHI - C. Sanchez-L vs ARI - J. Mantiply-L Friday NLCS showdown between the Phillies and Diamondbacks in Game 4 of the best-of-7 National League Championship Series. The game kicks off at 8:07 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on TBS. On the mound, we've got LHP Christopher Sanchez (3-5) facing off against RHP Joe Mantiply (2-2). The current MLB betting lines show the Phillies as favorites at -124 on the Moneyline, while the DBacks sit at +115. The Run line (ATS) is Phillies -1.5 (+125) and Diamondbacks +1.5 (-140), with the Over/Under set at 9.5. We’re back on the Over after it failed us in Game 3 on Thursday night. The Phillies and Diamondbacks battled to a 2-1 game where the Dbacks walked it off to get back into this series. This pitching matchup should produce a lot more offense as we’re going to see the bullpens of each team. Philadelphia’s offense has always been one to bounce back and bounce in a big way. They will see Mantiply to start here, who rarely works more than an inning. The rest of this dbacks bullpen is very hittable and we’ve seen them get knocked around even in this series. The Phillies are going with Sanchez, who will be in somewhat of a bit more length position. He was a starter this season, but did work out of the pen against the Mets in his final tuneup. He has yet to pitch this postseason and usually will give the Phillies some early inning action. Sanchez's stats for the season are 3.44 ERA over 18 starts with a 1.05 WHIP in 99 1/3 innings. Mantiply, on the other hand, went 2-2 with a 4.62 ERA in 3 starts and 32 relief appearances, with a 1.13 WHIP in 39 innings. Both offenses will find run scoring chances, especially early here, helping this over. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 4 of Phili's L6 games, and the total has gone OVER in 13 of Arizona's L20 games against Philadelphia. Plus, here's a random trend for you, the total has gone OVER in 4 of the Phils L5 played on a Friday when on the road. In past matchups, Game 3 featured limited scoring, with just 3 runs, while Game 2 saw 10 runs, and Game 1 had 8 runs. In the regular season these 2 teams combined for, 9, 7, 11, 17, 18, 7, and 9 runs. It all averages out to 9.9 RPG. It's gonna be tight...but. Back the OVER tonight in the desert. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NLCS O/U Play |

Calgary -138 Here's today's NHL betting scoop for the Friday clash between the (2-1-1) Calgary Flames and the Columbus Blue Jackets (1-2) on Game Day at 7:00 PM ET. Catch it on ESPN+ & Bally Sports. NHL betting odds: Flames (-141) are favored, while the Blue Jackets (+119) are the underdogs. The over/under is set at 6.5. In past matchups, Calgary snagged a 4-3 win over the Sabres on October 19, and Columbus suffered a 4-0 loss at home to the Red Wings. In 2022, the Flames came out on top in their series against the Blue Jackets, winning 6-2 and 6-0, but losing 3-1 in one game. The Flames are at a nice price against the Jackets here. Columbus has been notorious for slow starts and it looks like they’re in the midst of another one. They have been a struggle on defense, which was one of the main things they were nervous about going into this season. The Jackets allowed 4 goals to the Wings last time out as they are 1-2 entering Friday here. Calgary is going to give them so many issues with how attack minded their offense is. The Flames aren’t shy about pushing the tempo and forcing shots on net. They are at their best when they pepper the opposing goal and they will try to crash the net with everything they have. They’ll also look to turn defense into offense too. They will take turnovers and try to get out and counter, which will cause the Jackets so many problems in this one. Some trends to note, Calgary are 7-1 SU in their L8 games against Columbus, and they're 5-2 SU in their L7 games when playing on the road against the Jackets. On the other side Columbus are 3-11 SU in their L14 games. Back the Flames on the ML on Friday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 6* NHL ML Play |

10-20-23 | SMU v. Temple OVER 53.5 | 55-0 | Win | 100 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
Over 53.5 Today, we've got the lowdown on Friday night's NCAA football showdown under the lights. SMU (4-2, 2-0 AAC, 3-3 ATS) are taking on Temple (2-5, 0-3 AAC, 0-6 ATS) at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA. Set your alarms for 7 p.m. ET, and you can catch the action on ESPN. Let's cut to the chase with the betting info: The moneyline favors SMU at -1600, while Temple is the underdog at +900. As for the spread, SMU is giving up 21 points. The Over/Under is set at 54.5 points. Now, a quick history lesson: SMU has been dominant recently, winning 47-23 in 2020 and 45-21 in 2019 in their last two meetings. Overall, Temple holds a slight edge in the series at 3-2-2. We’re the Over here as SMU and Temple clash on Friday night. This will be the only college football game on the slate here this evening and it should provide some fireworks at least. The Owls have been pitiful on the defensive end to say the least. They come in allowing over 40 points in their last 4 games. Those totals include 41, 48, 49, and 45. They are constantly letting up big plays and allowing deep passes over the top. SMU isn’t shy about throwing the ball and will come in with a gameplan to use a lot of pace on Temple. The Owls offense has been able to at least muster up a few points to keep things somewhat reasonable too. This has the makings of a game where SMU goes off, with Temple having to pick up the pace themselves to try and keep up. Weather could be a little bit of factor on Friday with some light winds, and 25% chance of rain. Temps should be in the mid 60's. A trend to note, the total has gone OVER in 5 of Temple's L5 against SMU. Back the OVER here in Phili on Friday night lights. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* NCAA Football O/U Play |

10-20-23 | Astros v. Rangers UNDER 8.5 | 5-4 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
Under 8.5 Probable Pitchers: HOU - J. Verlander-R vs TEX - J. Montgomery-L Here's today's MLB betting info for the Friday ALCS matchup with the (95-75) Houston Astros taking on the (97-74) Texas Rangers in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series. The game kicks off at 5:07 p.m. ET, airing on FS1. The current MLB betting lines are Astros at +100 and Rangers at -118. The Run line (RL) (ATS) has Astros +1.5 (-158) and Rangers -1.5 (+192). The Over/Under (O/U) is set at 9 runs. On the mound, we have RHP Justin Verlander (13-8) going against LHP Jordan Montgomery (10-11). Verlander's stats include a 3.22 ERA in 27 starts with a 1.13 WHIP in 162 1/3 innings. Montgomery made 32 starts with a 3.20 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, in 188 2/3 innings. In terms of matchup history, the 2023 ALCS is tied 2-2. Texas won 2 in Houston, while Houston won the last 2 in Arlington. The Rangers, initially on a 7-game playoff win streak, are now facing a 2-game losing streak. We’ve backed Houston in the past 2 games, but now we’re flipping to the Under here in a huge game 5. The Astros have taken all the momentum back after back to back wins, which includes a beating of the Rangers on Thursday 10-3. Now, we get 2 of these two teams top pitchers as Verlander and Montgomery square off. Both with ERA's under 2.10. The LH for Texas has 3 starts where he has gone 17.1 innings, allowing just 4 runs in one of the starts, while the other two were shutout performances. Verlander has been equally impressive. He has gone 12.2 innings, giving up only 2 runs against these Rangers in Game 1. This is going to be tightly played game, with both sides struggling to put together run scoring chances. You're not going to find trends out there that point to this one going UNDER. We know we know, we usually find you some nuggets...today...nothing. Look at the score from Game 1. (these two pitched in that one) Regardless, we're backing the UNDER in this one on Friday afternoon. It'll be tough to score runs tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* MLB O/U Play |

10-19-23 | Jaguars v. Saints | 31-24 | Loss | -110 | 52 h 29 m | Show | |
Saints PK (-110) @ Circa The Saints, 3-3 this season and not doing so well at 1-4-1 ATS, aim to turn things around. They kick off Week 7 in NFL action against the Jaguars, who are 4-2, just like their 4-2 ATS. This game happens on Thursday Night Football. The action starts at 8:15 p.m. ET in the Caesars Superdome, available on Amazon Prime. In the betting world, New Orleans started as -3 favorites but is now -1 or even pick'em at some sportsbooks. The over/under is 39 points, and the money line is -157 for New Orleans and +134 for Jacksonville. We’re on the Saints here, at home. Saints had a good start with two wins but hit a rough patch, losing three of the last four, including a 20-13 loss to the Texans. On the other hand, the Jaguars are on fire, with three straight wins and a solid 37-20 home victory over the Colts. Historically, the Saints have dominated the Jags, winning 5 of the last 7, including the past 4. At home, they hold a perfect 3-0 record against Jacksonville, scoring at least 38 points in their last two. This is a fade of the Jags given the health issues they’re going through right now. Jacksonville continues to battle key injuries, one of which sits with Trevor Lawrence. He has been on another level as of late, but a sprained left knee has him not only questionable, but even if he plays not close to 100%. The Saints come in 3-3 as they have leaned on their defense thus far. We’ve seen them cause so many issues with the various blitz packages they’ve put together and have been able to force turnovers. Derek Carr has been up and down, but does come in off a game where he launched for 400 yards. He’s been much more comfortable as of late and should be able to have success against this Jags secondary. Some trends to note, the Jags are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against New Orleans, and they're 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games against the Saints. The Saints are 12-4 SU in their last 16 games against an opponent in the AFC South, and they're 14-6 SU in their last 20 games played in October. My money is on the Saints defense at home showing up and being the X-factor for this matchup. Update: Lawrence is officially listed as questionable, but he was optimistic on Tuesday that he would be able to play. Beathard says Lawrence "likely" plays. WE like the Saints on Thursday night football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NFL ATS Play |

Houston ML Probable Pitchers: HOU - J. Urquidy-R TEX (3-3 5.29 ERA) vs. A. Heaney-L (10-6, 4.15 ERA) In the upcoming 2023 ALCS Game 4 showdown, we've got the Astros (94-75, 54-30 on the road, 7-3 in the last 10 games) squaring off against the Rangers (97-73, 51-32 at home, 8-2 in the last 10 games). The action is set to kick off at 8:03 ET at Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX, on FS1. MLB - ALCS Betting Lines: Texas holds the money line at -126, with Houston at +108. The run line favors Texas at -1.5 (+148) and Houston at +1.5 (-190), while the over/under is set at 9. The pitching duel for this game will see Andrew Heaney (0-0, 2.45 ERA in the postseason) taking the mound for the Rangers and Jose Urquidy (1-0, 3.18 ERA in the postseason) for the Astros. Heaney boasts a 4-4 record with a 3.35 ERA in 15 career starts against the Astros, while Urquidy, though not facing Texas in 2023, has an impressive 5-0 record with a 2.82 ERA in 7 career starts against them. Texas took game 1, in Game 2, the Rangers defeated the Astros 5-4, extending their 2023 MLB postseason winning streak to seven games. That's where the road stopped. The Stros' backs were up against it and they responded with a BIG win on Wednesday night. We backed Houston at plus money yesterday and we’re rolling with them once again here in game 4. We’re on Houston, plus money on the road. (We also called the OVER yesterday with our FREE MLB play) After getting themselves back into the series with a dominant win, they’re back at it with a chance to even the series. The Astros have leaned all year on this offense, that came alive in a big way after putting up 8 runs in a win. This team is at their best when they get contributions from many different players and they should find success against Heaney on Thursday. He’s not an overpowering pitcher and the Astros have the ability to string together hits no matter where they are at in this lineup. Urquidy gave the Astros everything they could have asked for in his lone postseason start, going 5.2 innings, allowing just 3 hits and 2 runs. He needs to keep the ball down and avoid the free passes here. Some trends to note, Houston are 8-3 SU in their last 11 games, and 8-3 SU in their last 11 games against Texas, plus they're 7-0 SU in their last 7 games on the road, and they're 15-4 SU in their last 19 games played in October. Let me break it down for you, the Astros win last night was their 17th win in their last 20 road games. They're now 7-1 vs. the Rangers in 2023 on the road. Back the Stros again tonight to get it done. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* ALCS ML Play |

10-19-23 | Canucks v. Lightning UNDER 7 | 3-4 | Push | 0 | 8 h 4 m | Show | |
Under 7 Starting Goalies: Thatcher Demko (1-1, 1.70 GAA, 0.953 SV%) vs. Jonas Johansson (1-1-1, 3.71 GAA, 0.893 SV%) (Both Unconfirmed) Tonight, catch an exciting NHL betting showdown as the Canucks (2-1) take on the Lightning (1-2-1). The action unfolds at 7:00 PM ET, broadcasted on ESPN from Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. Check out the odds: Lightning (-136) for the moneyline, while the Canucks stand at (+115), and the over/under is set at 7. We’re playing this Under on the Canucks and Lightning for a couple reasons. The Goaltending is the main one. Starting with the Canucks side, they are going with goalie Thatcher Demko, who will be making his third start of the season. The netminder has a GAA of just 1.25 and has stepped up in a big way here early. Vancouver has also been a nice road under team dating back to last season. It seems like they don’t attack as much and play more tentative. Last game out Demko, facing the Flyers, stopped 40 shots in a 2-0 loss, with 22 saves in just the second period. He boasts an impressive .953 save percentage in his first two outings. Johansson Tampa's netminder last game out made his third start this season, stepped in after Vasilevskiy's injury. He made 28 saves in a 3-2 OT loss. Tampa Bay is battling some early injury woes. Stamkos remains questionable and the just have been very inconsistent. Their struggles to put the puck on net and even gain possession have been worrisome. Look for a slower played game here with this total just being too high. Tampa Bay is 19-17-3 all-time vs. Vancouver, and at home they're 11-8-2. A trend to note, the Canucks were shut out in Phili last game out, and the total has gone UNDER in 8 of the Canucks' last 11 games on the road. Check the injury reports for Stamkos tonight. If he's out we like this play even more obviously. Back the UNDER in Tampa tonight. The goalies will steal the show. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* NHL O/U Play |

10-19-23 | Maple Leafs -130 v. Panthers | 1-3 | Loss | -130 | 8 h 48 m | Show | |
Maple Leafs -130 Probable Goalies: Ilya Samsonov (2-0, 4.39 GAA, 0.839 SV%) vs. Sergei Bobrovsky (1-2, 3.41 GAA, 0.888 SV%) (Both Confirmed) Leafs (2-0) taking on the Panthers (1-2). This Thursday matchup kicks off at 7:00 PM ET and can be caught on TSN in Canada or ESPN+ in the USA, all happening at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, FL. Here are the current odds: Maple Leafs (-135) and Panthers (+121) on the Moneyline, with the Panthers at +1.5 (-210) and an Over/Under set at 7. Expect Samsonov to start in the Leafs' net after Woll allowed three goals on 30 shots in their 4-1 loss to the Hawks on Monday. Samsonov's early-season performance has been a bit shaky, as reflected in his stats. In 22/23, he posted a 1.44 GAA and .953 SV% in three games against FLA. In their last game, the Panthers took down the Devils 4-3, Bobrovsky kept a shutout until the third period. Prior to this game, he had a 3.64 GAA and .873 SV% for the season. The Panthers have been outscored 11-8 in their first three games and are gearing up for a 4-game homestand. Toronto is probably looking forward to this one and getting themselves back out there. They fell to Florida in last year’s postseason in a series they really could have won. Now, they come in 2-1 to start the year and will get a shot at them early this season. The Maple Leafs take on a Panthers team who went 1-2 on their opening road trip. They’ll look to lean on their stars here, as Matthews, Nylander, and Tavares all have started this season off well. The trip have 6 points each, with Matthews leading the team with 6 goals already. This is going to be a tightly played contest given all the hype up for it. Look for a slower developing game, with Toronto coming in and spoiling the Panthers home opener. Some trends to note, Toronto are 7-1 SU in their last 8 games on the road, and Florida are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games. Back the LEAFS on the ML tonight. I just don't trust Florida at this point of the season yet. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NHL ML Play |

10-19-23 | James Madison -3.5 v. Marshall | 20-9 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
James Madison -3.5 Thursday night college football in Week 8. It's the James Madison Dukes (6-0, 4-2 ATS) taking on the Marshall Thundering Herd (4-2, 2-4 ATS) at 7:00 ET in Huntington, WV's Joan C. Edwards Stadium, and you can catch it on ESPN. The current betting lines are as follows: JMU is favored by -3.5 points, the over/under is set at 49 points, and the money line shows Dukes at -175 and Thundering Herd at +146. In their history, Marshall has a 3-0 record against JMU, but they're coming off two losses while the Dukes are on the rise after a big win over Georgia Southern (41-13) while Marshall struggled against Georgia State (41-24). The last time Marshall and James Madison faced off came last year, ending in a 26-12 win for Marshall. We’re on James Madison here, laying the points. Marshall has dropped back to back games as it’s been their defense that has completely let them down. They allowed 48 points to NC State and then followed that up with 41 points against in their loss to Georgia State. The confidence is totally gone from their 4-0 start and now they have James Madison rolling into town. The Dukes are a perfect 6-0 and they’ve been dominant on both sides of the ball at times. Offensively, it’s been so tough to slow them down. They have scored over 30 points in 5 of the 6 games, which includes a 41-13 win over GA Southern last week. This is a game where two teams are going in opposite directions. The confidence level sits with James Madison and we’re backing the hotter team here. Marshall’s defense simply will not be able to slow down this offense. Game time weather is a non-factor, should be high 60's to low 70's, with a 10% chance of rain. Some trends to note, the Dukes are 4-1 ATS in their L5, and are 9-0 SU in their L9, and 4-1 in their L5 on the road. Lastly they're 6-0 SU in their L6 vs. Sun Belt teams. On the other side Marshall are 2-4 ATS in their L6. Back JM tonight on Thursday night college football. We aren't Marshall...tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 6* CFB ATS Play |

10-19-23 | Phillies v. Diamondbacks OVER 9 | 1-2 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
Over 9 Probable Pitchers: PHI - R. Suarez-L (5-6 ERA: 3.97) vs ARI - B. Pfaadt-R (3-9 ERA: 5.59) In 2023 NLCS Game 3, it's the Phillies (97-73, 42-41 on the road, 8-2 in the last 10) facing off against the Diamondbacks (89-80, 44-38 at home, 5-5 in the last 10) tonight at 5:07 ET, at Chase Field in Phoenix, AZ. You can catch the action on TBS U.S. The MLB - NLCS Betting Lines look like this: Phillies (-130) on the Money Line versus Diamondbacks (+114). The Run Line is Phillies -1.5 (+120) and Diamondbacks +1.5 (-142), while the Game Total is set at Over 9 (-115). On the mound, we have Ranger Suarez, who's been impressive in the postseason, allowing only 1 run in 8.2 innings. He'll go up against Brandon Phaadt, who had some struggles in the regular season with a 3-9 record and 22 HRs given up in 19 games but showed promise in his first playoff outing with a strong 7-inning performance. In Game 1, the Dbacks kept it close in a 5-3 loss, but the Phillies dominated in Game 2 with a 10-0 victory. We’re on the Over here as the series shifts to Arizona. For starters, tickets to get into this game on Stubhub are just $10. So if you’re in the area, feel free to take advantage of this. Arizona has looked awful, which clearly is the big reason for that. Their pitching has been just torched as Philadelphia is clicking on all cylinders right now. The Phils have hit 15 HR's in the past 4 games as it has been just about every single person getting involved. They take on rookie Brandon Pfaadt, who has been terrible as of late. He owns an ERA of over 7 this season and has been knocked around in the postseason. The Diamondbacks will face Suarez, who will look to get through 4 or 5 innings and turn it over to the pen. We're playing this Over as both teams will find success and put together scoring chances. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 4 of Philadelphia's last 5 games, and we've seen the OVER in 5 of Phili's last 7 on the road. On the other side, the OVER has hit in 5 of Zona's L7 games against Phili. Back the over tonight. Expect 10-14 runs. Ring the bell. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* MLB O/U Play |

10-18-23 | New Mexico State v. UTEP +3.5 | 28-7 | Loss | -115 | 35 h 38 m | Show | |
UTEP +3.5 On Wednesday the UTEP Miners (2-5, 2-5 ATS) will play at home against the New Mexico State Aggies (4-3, 5-2 ATS) at Sun Bowl Stadium. You can catch this game on ESPN2. Here are the betting details: The over/under is 48.5, UTEP is getting +3.5 points as the underdogs, and the Aggies are favored to win with a moneyline of -165. In their recent games, the Aggies defeated Sam Houston 27-13, while UTEP secured a 27-14 victory against the FIU Panthers. We’re on UTEP here, grabbing the points at home. Utep comes in with momentum. The Miners threw for over 300 yards in the win as they finally found their offensive production they’ve been waiting for. This is a good matchup for them as they should be able to find success against this Aggies secondary. New Mexico State has been hit or miss but their offense is not overpowering by any means. They have had struggles at times and they’ll be in for a lot of issues with this Utep defense. The Miners love to blitz and will put together some different packages here to confuse them in the backfield. If you check out the way back machine you'll see the Miners have outscored NMST by 34 points in the last 2 matchups. I'm not saying UTEP wins this one outright, I'm saying they'll be in it until the final play of the game. The Aggies defense doesn't scare anyone (23PPG) so I think UTEP can gain some ground in this one. Weather won't be a factor, it'll be in the high 70's and low 80's at gametime. Some trends to note, New Mexico State are 3-17 SU in their last 20 games on the road, and are 3-10 SU in their last 13 games against UTEP. UTEP are 11-2 SU in their last 13 games when playing at home against NMST. Hammer UTEP on Wednesday night! Let's go mining! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* CFB ATS Play |

10-18-23 | Astros +120 v. Rangers | 8-5 | Win | 120 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
Houston +120 Probable Pitchers: HOU - C. Javier-R vs TEX - M. Scherzer-R Tonight, the Texas Rangers face the Houston Astros in Game 3 of the 2023 ALCS at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. First pitch is at 8:03 p.m. ET, and you can watch it on Fox Sports 1. Max Scherzer (13-6, 3.77 ERA) takes the mound for the Rangers, while Cristian Javier (10-5, 4.56 ERA) starts for the Astros. Betting odds for ALCS Game 3 have Texas favored at -131 on the money line, while Houston sits at +110. The run line has Texas at -1.5 (+147), and the Over/Under (O/U) total is set at 9. In Game 2, the Rangers defeated the Astros 5-4, extending their 2023 MLB postseason winning streak to seven games. They now lead the series 2-0. Tonight, we’re on Houston here, plus money on the road. This isn’t do or die, but it’s about as close as you can get really. The Astros have to win. They've lost both at home and now have to take on Max Scherzer here. The RH is not at 100% after sustaining an injury on Sept 12. He will be limited and on a pitch count (65-70), and also shouldn’t have all his velocity back. He hasn't pitched since mid September. Countering him is Christian Javier. The RH allowed just 1 hit through 5.0 innings against the Twins in the first round and should be up for the task here. He’s come up in some big spots already for Houston and has the playoff experience. Houston dominated a 3 game set in this ballpark earlier this season, outscoring Texas 39-10. They have been in spots like this before with their backs against the wall and aren’t shy about the bright lights. Some trends to note, Houston are 6-0 SU in their last 6 games on the road, and are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against the Rangers. I'm backing the Astros tonight to get back into this series. They won't go down 0-3. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* MLB ML Play |

If you're leaning towards a draw, you can grab it at +280. As for the Over/Under, the total stands at 3, with the Over (+101) catching our attention. We're expecting goals in this one. Inter Miami's season is pretty much over, so hopefully they're playing free, and Charlotte will be playing to keep up. There is more than enough firepower on each team to have a "cracker" of a match tonight. Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooal! Back the Over Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* MLS O/U Play |

10-18-23 | Penguins -118 v. Red Wings | 3-6 | Loss | -118 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
Penguins ML Probable Goalies: Jarry (1-1, 1.53 GAA, 0.944 SV%) (Unconfirmed) vs. Husso (1-1, 3.56 GAA, 0.863 SV%) (Confirmed) Tonight in Hockeytown, Michigan, it's the Red Wings (2-1-0, 1-0 at home) taking on the Penguins (2-1-0, 1-0 away). The puck drops at 7:30 p.m. at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. You can watch the game on TNT. Here are the NHL betting numbers for today's game: Penguins (-130) versus Red Wings (+110) on the Moneyline. The Over/Under is 6.5 goals, and the Penguins are favored by 1.5 on the Puck Line. Tristan Jarry guards the net for the Pens. After a 4-2 loss to the Blackhawks, Jarry had a decent season opener, saving 32 of 35 shots. He followed it up by stopping all 19 shots against the Capitals, making it 51 saves out of 54. He didn't play against Calgary. As for the Wings, Husso's season start saw him allowing 3 goals on 26 shots in a 4-3 loss to NJ, but he bounced back with 22 saves in a 6-4 win over Tampa on Saturday. So far, he's stopped 44 of 51 shots this season. In 3 games against the Penguins, he has a record of 0-1-1 with an .871 SV% and a 4.58 GAA. The Penguins are the move at this kind of price. They come in off back to back impressive wins after losing to Chicago in the opener. Pittsburgh took down Washington and Calgary in consecutive games as they outscored both 9-2 combined. They just have so many weapons offensively and this should be another case where they find the back of the net a lot. Pittsburgh should be able to control the puck for starters here and really win the possession in the Wings zone. The Pens will look to put the pressure on and attack the net, as they beat you with many shots per possession. Combine that with their ability to come from many different angles offensively and this is a valuable play on the visitors. In their last 10 h2h meetings, the Pens have the upper hand with a record of 7-1-2, scoring an average of 4.9 goals per game compared to Detroit's 2.6. Some trends to note, Pittsburgh are 7-3 SU in their last 10 games against Detroit, and they're 4-1 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against Detroit. Dating back to last year the Wings are 2-6 SU in their last 8 games. I'm backing the Pens tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* NHL ML Play |

10-17-23 | Avalanche v. Seattle Kraken UNDER 6.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 27 m | Show | |
UNDER the total Probable Goalies: Georgiev (2-0, 1.44 GAA, 0.947 SV%) (Confirmed) vs. Grubauer (0-2, 2.54 GAA, 0.918 SV%) (Unconfirmed) The Avalanche (2-0, 2-0 Away) take on the Kraken (0-2-1) at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, WA. The puck drops at 10 pm ET, and you can catch the action on ESPN. The Avalanche are riding high with two consecutive wins, while the Kraken are still on the hunt for their first victory. The spread favors the Avalanche at -1.5, while the Kraken are at +1.5 with odds of -200. If you're looking at the total goals (O/U), it's set at Over 6.5. And if you're considering the money line, the Avalanche are at -150, while the Kraken stand at +130. We’re on the UNDER here. The Kraken welcome in undefeated Colorado as they try to get into the win column here. Georgiev had a strong start to the season, stopping 34 out of 36 shots in a 5-2 victory against the Kings. His performance was impressive, just like his debut season with the Avs, where he maintained a 2.53 GAA and .918 SV% across 62 games (40-16-6). Georgiev seems to be continuing his good form from last season. In comparison, Grubauer had a 2.85 GAA and .895 SV% in 39 games (17-14-4) last season. He played a vital role in getting the Kraken into the playoffs. Last game out Grubauer allowed two goals on 34 shots, resulting in a 3-0 loss to the Preds. Seattle is far better than they’ve played thus far but they do come in off a point in a shootout loss to St. Louis. This also makes the Kraken’s home opener, so this place will be buzzing. They were a dominant home team in 2022-2023 as they had one of the best offenses and attacks. They aren’t shy about putting the pressure on and they will look to get back to pushing the tempo on teams. They’re going to give the Avalanche all the attack they can handle here, trying to control the pace and put them on their heels. Unfortunately for the Kraken they've only scored 2 goals in 3 games this season, the offense while I think will be better tonight still isn't clicking. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Seattle's last 5 games, and the total has gone UNDER in 5 of Colorado's last 6 games. Plus we've seen the total hit in 4 of the Avs last 6 games when playing on the road against the Kraken. Back the UNDER tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 7* NHL O/U Play |

10-17-23 | Diamondbacks v. Phillies OVER 8 | 0-10 | Win | 101 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
Arizona vs Philadelphia Over Probable Pitchers: ARI - M. Kelly-R vs PHI - A. Nola-R Tonight, it's the Diamondbacks versus the Phillies in Game 2 of the NL Championship Series, with the Phillies currently leading 1-0. The game kicks off at 8:07 p.m. ET at Citizens Bank Park and will be broadcasted on TBS. Here are the latest MLB playoff odds: Diamondbacks with a +140 moneyline and Phillies at -165. The run line shows Diamondbacks at +1.5 (-155) and Phillies at -1.5 (+125). The over/under is set at 8, with over at -105 and under at -115. We’re back on the Over here after cashing it in last nights Game 1. Philadelphia is teeing off right now. (11-1 home run) They’re getting contributions from their stars in big moments as we saw Schwarber, Castellanos, and Harper all go yard in Game 1. This offense has dominated this postseason and they’re hitting everything and everyone. Arizona still managed to make things interesting as well, putting up runs themselves. Now, let's talk about the pitchers for tonight. Kelly, who had a 12-8 record with a 3.29 ERA in 30 starts, takes the mound. He had a 1.19 WHIP, 3.5 BB/9, and 9.5 K/9 in 177 2/3 innings. Kelly last faced Philadelphia on 6/14, where he allowed 3 runs. On the other side, Nola, with a 12-9 record and a 4.46 ERA across 32 starts. He posted a 1.15 WHIP, 2.1 BB/9, and 9.4 K/9 in 193 2/3 innings. This offense will make him work and rack his pitch count up. Nola owns a 3.67 era in his postseason career and Arizona can at least carry their momentum from late in the game into play here. Weather looks good, high 50's, low 60's at gametime. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 12 of Arizona's last 17 games when playing on the road against the Phils, plus the total has gone OVER in 12 of Philadelphia's last 18 games against Arizona. Finally the over is 7-2-2 in these two teams' L11. Runs, Runs, Runs...we're on the OVER tonight. Phils have a +31 run diff in OCT. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* MLB O/U Play |

WK ATS The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (4-2, 4-2 ATS, 2-0 in CUSA) and the Jacksonville State Gamecocks (5-2, 4-2-1 ATS, 3-1) will face off on Tuesday at Burgess-Snow Field in Jacksonville, Alabama, in a Conf-USA game. The game is set to start at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be shown on ESPNU. Here are the betting details: Western Kentucky is favored by 7.5 points, the total points scored (over/under) is set at 60, and if you prefer a straight-up bet, the money line odds are Hilltoppers -306 and Jacksonville State +243. WKU has covered their L3 games. We’re on the Hilltoppers, laying the points. Looking at this matchup you may think laying points with a road team against a 5-2 side is a bad move. However, Jax State is not as good as their record indicates. 31-13 loss to Liberty last game out. They’ve lost to Coastal Carolina and Liberty, two of the best teams on their schedule. They simply weren’t able to keep up and eventually were worn down which opened a lot of gaps in the defense. Western Kentucky is a very quick striking team as well. They aren’t shy about throwing the ball and will take plenty of shots down field. The Hilltoppers are averaging 32 PPG and leading the conference in passing YPG (287) and TD's (15). We’re playing this Hilltoppers side who has won back to back games putting up more than 30 points in each of them. This matchup marks the first meeting between these teams since 2003, and WKU has the lead in their historical series, winning four out of five. We've waited long enough trying to see if this would hit -7, but we'll bite on the -7.5. Weather looks good, a non factor. Back the Hilltoppers on Tuesday night. Some trends to note, WK are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games, and are 6-2 SU in their last 8 games. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CFB ATS Play |

Cowboys -1 In NFL Week 6, the Cowboys take on the Chargers at SoFi Stadium for Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET. The Cowboys, 3-2, had a tough loss to the 49ers last week, 42-10. The Chargers, 2-2, are on a two-game winning streak after beating the Raiders on Oct. 1, following a bye week. Dallas is a slight 1.5-point favorite in the spread, with a 51-point over/under. The Cowboys have a -126 money line, while the Chargers are at +105. Dallas has the value in this spot. The Cowboys come in with some extra time to prep as it came at the right time. They were knocked around by the 49ers last week and want to erase the blowout loss. The Cowboys will be 100% laser focused on righting the ship after that embarrassment. Dallas has been one of the best teams to come back from losses. Since 2021, the Cowboys have gone 9-1 following a loss. They typically will come out with a huge purpose and not allow things to go sideways in bunches. They also see a banged up Chargers side. Justin Herbert has a fractured middle finger on his non throwing hand. He will be playing but look for that to cause some issues for him. Dallas is explosive and should be able to find success against this Chargers secondary. We’re playing the Cowboys side who is better overall and will come out with something to prove, with a chip on their shoulder, and a lot of purpose early on. The Cowboys record on MNF is 50-38 .568 Win %., the Chargers record on MNF is 25-25 .500 Win %. As far as head to head records go, the Chargers and Cowboys have faced off 12 times. The Chargers won 5 games, while the Cowboys have won 7. The last game a 20-17 Cowboys win in 2021. Coincidentally that matchup did feature Prescott vs. Herbert. Some trends to note, Dallas are 12-6 SU in their last 18 games, and they're 4-1 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against the Chargers. On the other side the Chargers are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games. Back the Cowboys tonight in front of a "home" crowd in LA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NFL ATS Play |

10-16-23 | Diamondbacks v. Phillies OVER 7.5 | 3-5 | Win | 102 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
Diamondbacks vs Phillies Over Probable Pitchers: ARI - Z. Gallen-R (19-9) ERA: 3.46 vs PHI - Z. Wheeler-R (14-6) ERA: 3.47 Tonight the 2023 NLCS begins as Citizens Bank Park hosts Game 1 featuring the Phillies facing off against the Diamondbacks. The game's first pitch is set for 8:07 p.m. ET, and you can catch it on TBS. The Phillies come into this playoff showdown with a superior regular season record, finishing at 90-72 (with a strong 53-32 record at home), while the DBacks concluded at 84-78 (going 45-40 on the road). Both teams have performed well lately, boasting a 6-4 record in their last ten games. Here's the odds: The money line favors the Phillies at -167, while the Diamondbacks stand at +142. The Over/Under is set at 7.5, and the run line has the Phillies at -1.5 with a +129 payout. Wheeler holds a 6-3 record with a 2.96 ERA in 11 career starts against the DBacks, having split his decisions in the regular season. Gallen, on the other hand, allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 5 2/3 innings in a no-decision game against the Phillies in May. Throughout his career, he's maintained a 3-1 record with a 2.22 ERA in 5 starts against the Phils. We’re on the Over here in this one. Both of these offenses have flourished in the postseason so far. Arizona dominated the Dodgers, putting up 19 runs in 3 games against them. They are getting situational hits and their ability to hit the long ball is showing right now. Philadelphia is in the same boat. The Phillies have dominated when they go deep. Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos have been leading the charge as this offense is clicking on all cylinders. They have hit extremely well at home and this is a case where they should find just as much success. Both starting pitchers have let up runs in their postseason starts, but have also found success themselves. Look for both offenses to make these pitchers work early and produce run scoring chances. As we get into the bullpens we'll see more runs late. There's just too much offensive firepower on both sides in this one for the bats to be kept quiet. When you have a game featuring Turner, Castellanos, Harper, Carroll, Marte, and Moreno you should expect fireworks, and we are. Some trends to note, the total has gone OVER in 11 of Arizona's last 16 games when playing on the road against Philadelphia, plus, we've seen the OVER hit in 7 of the Phils L10 against an opponent in the NL West. The Phils have only hit the Game Total Under in 33 of their last 81. While the Dbacks have hit the Team Total Over in 45 of their last 77 away games. We should be good for weather tonight, with high 50's and only a 10% chance of rain. The home crowd will be electric, and the bats will start this series out on fire setting a tone for what should be an amazing series. We're backing the OVER in G1 of the NLCS in Phili.

10-16-23 | Flames v. Capitals UNDER 6.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 0 m | Show | |
Capitals UNDER 6.5 Probable Goaltenders: Markstrom vs. Kuemper (Both Unconfirmed) The Flames will face the Capitals at Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. at 7:00 PM ET. The game will be shown on ESPN+. In terms of the betting odds, we have the Flames as the favorites (-114), the Capitals as the underdogs (-106), and the over/under set at 6.5 points. On the puck-line we're seeing Flames -1.5 (+205), and Caps +1.5 (-225). The Flames, with a record of 1-1-0, are hitting the road again to take on the Capitals, who stand at 0-1-0. Calgary kicked off with a 5-3 victory over the Jets (a game I predicted accurately), but then suffered a 5-2 defeat against the Penguins on their road trip. Washington's regular season started with a disappointing 4-0 home loss to the Penguins. Both teams are dealing with a number of injuries, impacting their lineup expectations for this matchup. It's likely we'll see Jacob Markstrom (1-1, 3.56 GAA, 0.892 SV%) facing off against Darcy Kuemper (making his first start) in the goaltending duel tonight. Kuemper missed the WSH/PIT game due to paternity leave and should be highly motivated. He also had a heckuva game last year vs. these Flames stopping all but 2 shots. Markstrom allowed 3 goals on 37 shots in the Flames' opening night win and 25 saves in their 5-2 loss to the Penguins. This is a confident play in the two goalies keeping this one close tonight. In their previous game, the Caps managed just 19 shots on goal, reflecting their offensive struggles. Their performance so far this season has been lackluster, and I don't anticipate much improvement tonight. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Calgary's last 6 games, we've also seen the TOTAL go UNDER in in 8 of Washington's L12 games against an opponent in the Pacific. Back the UNDER tonight in Washington. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 6* NHL O/U Play |

10-16-23 | Rangers v. Astros -118 | 5-4 | Loss | -118 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
Astros -118 Probable Pitchers: TEX - N. Eovaldi-R vs HOU - F. Valdez-L In the 2023 ALCS Game 2, the Astros take on the Rangers in Minute Maid Park at 4:37 p.m. ET. The Rangers clinched Game 1 with a 2-0 score, and we backed the home team. Both teams, Rangers (90-72) Astros (90-72), co-held the AL West title but Texas lost out on the MLB tiebreaker system. Houston's is in their 7th consecutive ALCS as 3-time AL West champions. Astros are favored at -122 on the money line with a total of 8.5, and the run line is Houston -1.5 (+166). We’re on the Astros here, at this price. Game 1 was all Texas as they won their 6th straight playoff game after a 2-0 win over the Astros. Houston’s offense just had nothing going for them and now they look to even the series before heading out to Arlington. The Astros have been one of the best bounce back teams in baseball. We saw them already do it once after losing to the Twins, which led them to two straight wins after that. Valdez (12-12 ERA: 3.60) gets the ball and he will look to erase is poor outing. The LH was consistent this season overall and dominated Texas back on 9/5. He went 7.0 innings, allowing just 1 run. Valdez had a record of 12 wins and 11 losses in the regular season, with a 3.45 ERA. against Texas, he went 1-2 with a 4.32 ERA. Valdez has faced Texas 16x in his career, starting in 13. He's got a 7-5 record, a 2.90 ERA, and 89 strikeouts. Eovaldi (14-5 ERA: 3.42) had a rough end to the regular season, conceding 15 runs in his last 3 starts. In the playoffs, he's been okay, but his latest game against Houston was tough as he allowed 4 runs in just 1.1 innings. They lit him up. The Rangers lead the overall series 135-132, while Houston holds a 69-65 home advantage. The Rangers are hoping Eovaldi lasts into the 6th, or this one could get ugly again. Some trends to note, Texas are 2-7 SU in their last 9 games against Houston. On the other side, Houston are 7-2 SU in their last 9 games, and they're are 14-3 SU in their last 17 games played in October. In the L10 vs. Texas they've averaged 7.7 RPG, to Texas' 5.6 RPG, and Houston have lost 6 of the L10 to Texas. This is a get right game, and they're going to come out with their best efforts tonight. We're on the Astros on Monday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* ALCS MLB ML Winner |

Netherlands ML The last time these two matched up the Dutch won 3-0. This will be a drastically different encounter with the game set in Greece, and the Dutch missing 11 starting caliber players from their ranks. Having said that the Dutch played a full 90 with high energy and their new 5-3-2 formation vs. France in a 2-1 loss on Friday, and it was Mbappe's brilliance that won that one for France. Greece have no such goalscorer in their side. They may have beaten Ireland 2-0 last game out but the Dutch are on much different ground than the Irish. The Dutch's automatic qualification for the Euros might slip away if they lose to Greece on Monday. Greece could jump six points ahead of the Netherlands, leaving Oranje with just two games to catch up. On the flip side, a victory for the Netherlands would nearly guarantee their qualification. This showdown is undeniably significant, and given the experience of Dutch players in such high-stakes matches, I believe they can clinch a win in Greece on Monday.

10-15-23 | Giants v. Bills UNDER 44 | 9-14 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
UNDER 44 The Giants (1-4, 0-5 ATS) and Bills (3-2, 3-2 ATS) are set to face off in an NFL Week 6 showdown on Sunday Night Football. The game will kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y., and it will be broadcast on NBC. The NFL odds favor the Bills by 15 points, for straight up bettors the odds favor the Bills -1200, while the Giants are getting +850 odds, the total points scored over/under is set at 44. The Giants are going through a tough stretch, losing three games in a row. In Week 5, they fell to the Dolphins with a score of 31-16. Meanwhile, the Bills are coming off a trip to London where they suffered a setback, losing to the Jaguars by a score of 25-20. We’re on the under here. This is the kind of game that is going to be played at a very slow pace. Looking at the Giants perspective. They are going to want to run the clock and keep the ball out of Josh Allen’s hands. They know that they cannot keep up with this kind of offense, and every chance they get to keep the ball out of their hands is going to be a win. Offensively the Giants have struggled as a whole is season. Their issues are on both the run game and the pass game is there. They are unable to show any sort of consistency whatsoever. This is going to be one of those games that we see a lot of ugly football, and a lot of runs, each team will try to sustain long drives to control the clock. Look for scoring chances to be at a premium. Tyrod Taylor is going to have his hands full with the Bills pass rush. (21 sacks already this season) Buffalo's Knox, Kincaid, and D. Jackson are all listed as questionable for the game, while the Giants will be without Jones, and Waller and Barkley are questionable as well. The Giants O-Line is also VERY banged up. Some trends to note, Giants are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games, and they're 1-5 SU in their last 6 games. On the other side Buffalo are 11-3 SU in their last 14 games, and they're 14-3 SU in their last 17 games at home. Back the UNDER. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-15-23 | Rangers v. Astros -131 | 2-0 | Loss | -131 | 50 h 43 m | Show | |
Astros ML Probable Pitchers: TEX - J. Montgomery-L vs HOU - J. Verlander-R The ALCS kicks off this Sunday as the Astros take on the Rangers. It all starts at 8:15 PM ET in Minute Maid Park, and you can catch it on FOX. According to our trusted offshore sportsbooks, the Astros are favored at -139 on the moneyline, while the Rangers are the underdogs at +118. Houston is expected to win by at least 1.5 runs. The over/under total for the game is set at 8.5 runs. Justin Verlander (13-8, 3.22 ERA) will be on the mound for the Astros, facing off against Jordan Montgomery (10-11, 3.20 ERA) of the Rangers. We're on Houston here, as they take on Texas in the ALCS Game 1. The Astros are the team to beat here this postseason. They come in after beating up on the Twins in Games 3 and 4 en route to winning the series 3-1. Houston can go toe to toe with this Rangers offense. Houston ranks right up at the top in almost every offensive category and now they're getting contributions from many different players this postseason already. It was Abreu who play the biggest part in beating the Twins and he'll look to carry that momentum in. Verlander will also be pitching with a lot of momentum himself. He dominated Minnesota in Game 1 and has been pitching at a high level as of late. He should see some offensive support as Montgomery isn't going to overpower anyone in this lineup. Some trends to note, Texas are 1-7 SU in their last 8 games against Houston, and Houston are 7-1 SU in their last 8 games overall. The last 10 times these two have played the Stros have averaged 8.2 runs per game, while the Rangers have checked in with 5.7 runs per game. We're backing Verlander & the Astros in Game 1 of the ALCS on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* MLB ML Play |

10-15-23 | Lions -3 v. Bucs | 20-6 | Win | 100 | 71 h 15 m | Show | |
Lions -3 Last week, the Lions beat the Panthers 42-24, and the Bucs, who had a week off, won against New Orleans 26-9 two weeks ago. In NFL week 6, it's the Lions (4-1 SU, 4-1 ATS) against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1 SU, 3-1 ATS). They'll play at Raymond James Stadium at 4:25 pm ET, and you can catch it on FOX. The betting odds show the Lions as favorites with -3 points, while the Bucs are at +3. For the moneyline, Detroit is -165, and Tampa is +145. The total points expected are 44. Detroit is worth the move here. The Lion offense has been in great form as Jared Goff continues to be one of the best at making big plays. Goff comes in with 1265 yards and 9 touchdowns thus far. The biggest thing for him has been limiting turnovers. He has thrown just 3 interceptions as he continues to produce at a high rate. Goff continues to come up with big plays and his ability to sustain drives is one of the best in the NFL. Detroit ranks 4th in the NFL as they are averaging nearly 30 points per game and they continue to be one of the more consistent offenses. We're backing the hotter team and for Baker Mayfield to regress a bit here. Some trends to note coming soon, Detroit are 13-2 ATS in their last 15 games, and they're 6-1 SU in their last 7 games, plus they're 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games against the Bucs. On the other side Tampa Bay are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 games at home. On Sunday I'm backing the Lions as they'll get it done vs. the Bucs in Week 6. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL ATS Play |

10-15-23 | Seahawks +3 v. Bengals | 13-17 | Loss | -117 | 68 h 51 m | Show | |
Seahawks +3 The Seahawks are going to Ohio to play the Bengals in Week 6 this Sunday. The game is set for 1PM EDT, and it will be on CBS. The odds for the NFL match are Cincinnati -3 points on the spread, with an over/under of 44.5 points. Cincinnati is -148, while Seattle is +124. We're backing Seattle here, grabbing the points. Cincinnati has a lot of issues happening right now. Joe Burrow continues to play through a leg injury that is causing a lot of things to go wrong right now. While he has tried to step things up, this offense just isn't the same when he isn't at 100%. Seattle is going to cause a lot of issues here. They're going put together a lot of different blitz packages and try to put Burrow on edge here. This is the kind of game where they can force him into some tough situations and have him struggle early on. The Bengals win over the Cards isn't something to write home about in this spot. The Seahawks are looking healthy with the extra rest. Geno Smith is back and healthy, and Jamal Adams is returning. With the bye week, they've had extra time to prepare for Burrow and Chase. The Hawks' offense has scored 98 points in their last three games. The weather will play a role in this game, and the Seahawks have a better running game for a ground-and-pound matchup. (Walker III, and Charbonnet have looked great) Some trends to note, Seattle are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games, and they're 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games against AFC teams. Cincinnati are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 games. Back Seattle ATS on Sunday vs. the Bengals. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play |

10-15-23 | Saints v. Texans +2 | 13-20 | Win | 100 | 68 h 50 m | Show | |
Texans +2 (I like +1.5 too, not as much) The Saints won big against the Patriots last week, 34-0, while the Texans lost a close one to the Falcons, 21-19. This week, it's the New Orleans Saints (3-2) vs. the Houston Texans (2-3) in NFL action for week 6. The game is set for Sunday, October 15th, 2023, at 1:00 PM (EST) at NRG Stadium in Houston, TX. You can catch it on FOX. The betting odds are: Point Spread - NO -2 / HOU +2, Moneyline - NO -125 / HOU +105, and Total - 42.5. Houston is the move here. The Texans come in 2-3, but this team has been better than this record indicates. The Saints are facing a tough schedule ahead. In Week 6, they have two consecutive road games, and if we backtrack a bit, they've had road games in four out of their last five outings. Additionally, they have some key players dealing with injuries as per the NFL injury report. One standout factor for me, aside from the Texans' running game, which I believe can find success today, is QB Stroud. This guy is a solid performer. He's currently in the Top 10 for passer rating, effectively connecting with his receiving options, and distributing the ball to his playmakers, including Dell, Woods, and Collins. What's even more impressive is his ability to protect the football, having thrown 7 TD's with ZERO INT's (He has 1461 yds passing too). Stroud is playing with a lot of confidence right now. I really like his ability to make the big play, he looks like a bonafide NFL starting QB, and that has been crucial here in 2023. Stroud and Niko Collins have been a solid connection and they should be able to find a lot of success come Sunday. The Saints defense has had a lot of issues at times and an early big play can change a lot here. Look for Houston to have their chances to steal this outright. Theyve scored 30+ points in their two wins thus far. New Orleans ranks near the bottom in a lot of offensive categories and they will struggle to put up points here. Some trends to note, New Orleans are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games. Houston are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games, and they're 6-3 ATS in their L9 Sunday games. Back Houston ATS on Sunday vs. Nawlins.

10-14-23 | Avalanche -1.5 v. Sharks | 2-1 | Loss | -105 | 27 h 48 m | Show | |
Avalanche -1.5 Probable Goaltenders: (CONFIRMED) Georgiev (1-0, 2.00 GAA, 0.944 SV%) vs. Blackwood On Saturday night, it's Avalanche (1-0) versus Sharks (0-1) at SAP Center in San Jose, CA. You can catch it on NBC Sports California. The odds are Avalanche (-250) and Sharks (+195). The puckline offers Avs -1.5 (-105) and Sharks +1.5 (-110), with the over/under set at 6.5. In between the pipes, Georgiev aims for his 100th career win in Game 2 with the AVS. He had a good start against the Kings, stopping 34 of 36 shots in a 5-2 victory. Blackwood will debut for the Sharks after joining them this offseason. Last year with the Devils, he had a 3.19 GAA and .897 SV% in 82 games. In their recent games, Colorado triumphed 5-2 against the Kings on, while San Jose fell 4-1 to the Golden Knights. Colorado is the move here on the PL. The Avs showcased they are going to be a force to mess with here in 2023-2024. They came out of the gates firing away en route to a 5-2 win over LA. Colorado put 37 shots on net and just peppered away all night. They forced the Kings into some tough situations in their own zone, resulting in some long possessions. The Sharks are going to have issues all over. They fell 4-1 in their opener and just don’t have the firepower to keep up here. Colorado can come at teams from so many different angles and they’re going to overwhelm the Sharks in this one. Some trends to note, the AVS are 14-6 SU in their L20 games, and they're 6-0 SU in their L6 games against San Jose, and 5-1 SU in their L6 games when playing on the road against San Jose. San Jose are 0-7 SU in their L7 games. We're backing the Avs to win by 2-3 goals on Saturday night vs. the Sharks. The Sharks don't look good on offense to start the year. Play on Colorado -1.5.

10-14-23 | UCLA v. Oregon State UNDER 54.5 | 24-36 | Loss | -115 | 51 h 45 m | Show | |
UNDER 54.5 An exciting matchup this Saturday at 8:00PM ET. The action unfolds at Reser Stadium in Corvallis, Oregon, and you can catch it on FOX. In this showdown, the #15 Oregon State Beavers, boasting a 5-1 (4-2 ATS) record, will face off against the #18 UCLA Bruins, who come in at 4-1 (3-2 ATS). The Beavers are the favorites by 3.5 points, and the total score expected is 54 points. For those who like straight-up bets, Oregon State sits at -184 on the moneyline, while UCLA is at +155. In their recent games, the Beavers triumphed over the California Golden Bears with a final score of 52-40, while the Bruins secured a 25-17 victory against the Washington State Cougars. We’re going with the Under here in UCLA/Oregon State. UCLA is one of the best on the defensive side of the ball in the entire nation. They have cashed the Under in every game this season and they’ve relied heavily on this defense at times. They have been so good at getting off the field on third downs and not allowing the big play. The other side of things on their under brigade has been thanks to the lackluster offense. With Freshman QB Dante Moore still working into the system, this Bruins team is far less dangerous than they were last year with DTR. This is an offense that doesn’t have much on the big play making side and they won’t even take many shots down field. Oregon State’s defense is up for the task as well. They haven’t allowed over 10 points in any of the three home games they’ve played this season. This is going to be a defensive battle under the lights, with scoring chances coming at a premium. A couple trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of UCLA's last 5 games, we've also seen the UNDER hit in 6 of OST's last 8 games against UCLA. Back the UNDER 54.5. The total is too high for me! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB O/U Play |

10-14-23 | USC v. Notre Dame UNDER 60.5 | 20-48 | Loss | -115 | 49 h 52 m | Show | |
Under 60.5 #21 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (5-2, 4-2-1 ATS) take on the #10 USC Trojans (6-0, 2-4 ATS). ND with a 5-2 record, is coming off a 33-20 loss against #25 Louisville. On the flip side, USC is all pumped up after their thrilling triple-overtime victory over Arizona, winning 43-41 Saturday. This Saturday will mark the 94th clash between these teams, with the Irish leading the series 50-38-5. Last season, USC claimed victory 38-27 in LA. The betting odds indicate that Notre Dame is favored by 2.5 points, with the over/under set at 63.5, and the moneyline showing Notre Dame at -135 and USC at +110. We’re on the Under in ND vs USC as the Fighting Irish look to rebound from an awful game last week in Louisville. The Fighting Irish looked awful offensively as it has not been good for Hartman at times here. They are very bland with the calls and there hasn’t been much down field. That benefits us, as well as the fact they know they can’t get into a track meet. Notre Dame is not going to play fast with the ball in their hands. They will slow the tempo down and do just about everything to keep it away from Caleb Williams. This will result in a lot of drawn out drives and take USC off their game. The pace will not be up to their standards and this Fighting Irish defense is eager to get back out there. Notre Dame has seen their defense make a lot of good plays, but last week it was all for not. Doesn't ND look like a really tired team? They do to me. Thhs is a rebound game for them. Look for a very slow developing game and for USC to be frustrated all around. That plays right into this Under for us. You're not going to find any recent trends to support this play like we normally dig up. This is purely a "gut shot". The public is on the OVER. We're going the other way. The total is TOO DAMN HIGH! We're backing the UNDER Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB O/U Play |

10-14-23 | Oregon v. Washington -3 | Top | 33-36 | Push | 0 | 45 h 52 m | Show |
10* TOP PLAY UW -3 In Seattle this week, there's a big showdown in college football. Undefeated #8 Oregon (5-0, 5-0 ATS) faces off against #7 Washington (5-0, 3-2 ATS) for the top spot in the Pac 12. It's the nation's top offense against the second-best – a real headline-maker. The game kicks off on Saturday, October 14th, at 12:30 PM PT, airing on ABC. The odds have Washington favored by 3 points with a total score prediction of 67.5. Washington is at -142 on the money line, while Oregon is at +130. We’re on Washington here, laying the number at home. This is going to be the kind of game that features a lot of fireworks. Both offenses are explosive and they love to work with pace. Washington is being a little undervalued here too. They rank first in the FBS in total offense at 569 yards and they can score in bunches. They also get a huge boost this week returning from injury. McMillan will be out wide for Penix, after missing 3 games with an undisclosed injury. He’s been practicing all week and makes such a difference in this receiving core. The Huskies have stepped up on defense at times, which included last week against Arizona. They have forced turnovers and been able to hold firm in the red zone. Look for them to put together a lot of different coverages and blitzes, doing whatever they can to confuse this Oregon offense. This Pac 12 showdown is a big deal, one of the most significant in years. What's even crazier is that next year, it becomes a BIG 10 game. Strange, right? Some trends to note, UW are 10-0 SU in their L10, 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games, and lastly they're 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home. Back the DAWGS on Saturday vs. the 1-state-over rival.

10-14-23 | BYU +6 v. TCU | 11-44 | Loss | -109 | 46 h 17 m | Show | |
BYU +6 We've got a good game lined up with the BYU Cougars (4-1, 1-1) facing off against the TCU Horned Frogs (3-3, 1-2). Saturday at 3:30pm ET, Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, TX, and you can catch it on ESPN. Last week, BYU had a bye week, while TCU took a hit with a 27-14 loss to Iowa State. In the history books, TCU leads the series 6-5, and the last time they met in 2011, TCU came out on top with a 38-28 score. Now, for the betting scoop: BYU is the underdog by 6 points, and the total points for the game are set at 52.5. If you're looking at the moneyline, TCU is -223, and BYU is +182. BYU has the value with the points in this spot. The Cougars take on a TCU team that has not looked like the runners up from last season. They are 3-3 on the year and they have looked bad on the offensive side. They have scored a combined 35 points over the last two weeks and now they will be without their starting QB moving forward. Freshman Josh Hoover will make his first college start and takes on a defense that isn’t shy to put together blitz packages. BYU also comes in off a bye week which will be extremely beneficial. The bye week was used to help get this Cougars side healthy and will provide them with a huge spark. This is the kind of game they can frustrate the Horned Frogs. Given the struggles TCU has had and the situation they’re in QB wise, an early BYU lead can start to put some doubt into the Horned Frogs. They will have to be conservative with their play-calling as well, which should give BYU a nice edge. Look for BYU to control the clock and have this TCU team on their heels. Some trends to note, BYU are 8-1 in their L9 SU. Plus, they're 4-1 ATS in their L5 vs. TCU. TCU are 2-5 in their L7 ATS. We're on the Cougars on Saturday to keep things close against TCU.

10-14-23 | California v. Utah -10.5 | 14-34 | Win | 100 | 46 h 46 m | Show | |
Utah -10.5 The Cal Golden Bears (3-3, 2-4 ATS, 1-2 Pac12) aim for their second road victory of the season against the Utah Utes (4-1, 2-2-1 ATS, 1-1 Pac-12) this Saturday afternoon. The game kicks off at 3:00PM ET and airs on the Pac-12 Network. This showdown takes place in Salt Lake City, Utah, at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Now, let's check out the odds. The Utes are the favorites with a spread of -11.5 points, and their moneyline stands at -455. On the other side, the Golden Bears hold a moneyline of +350. The total points for this game are set at 45. Utah brings in an impressive home winning streak against unranked teams. That is one thing Utah has done so well in the recent years. They’ve beaten the teams they’re supposed to beat and they do it in style. They have won 26 straight here against unranked opponents and they are a few steps above this Cal side. Digging deeper into that stat, they are 15-0 since 2021 and 13 of those have been by double digits. Cal will look to establish a run game, but that won’t work against Utah. The Utes are one of the best in the conference at stopping the run, especially at home. They will stack the box on this Cal side, daring them to throw the ball. Look for Utah to dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, which should produce defensive turnovers and give them some short fields to work with. Cal simply does not have the firepower should they fall behind here. This is a nice spot to back Utah in a game they should handle comfortably. Cal won't be able to keep up, and I think they win by 14+. Some trends to note, CAL are 1-4 in their L5 SU, they're also 4-10 SU in their L14. On the other side, Utah are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games. They're also an insane 17-0 SU in their last 17 games at home, plus they're 15-3 SU in their last 18 games against an opponent in the Pac-12. I'm backing the UTES on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play |

10-13-23 | Stanford v. Colorado -11.5 | 46-43 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 7 m | Show | |
Buffaloes -11.5 The game will kick off at 10:00 ET at Folsom Field in Boulder, CO. The weather is expected to be in the 40's to low 50's and clear. You can catch the action on ESPN. Now, let's talk odds. Colorado is favored by 11.5 points in the spread, and the over/under is set at 60 points. For those who prefer straight-up bets, the money line shows the Buffaloes at -466 and the Cardinal at +350. Colorado has the value here on Friday night. The Buffs come in after another win as they are proving to a lot of people that they aren’t messing around. Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes are gearing up to face the Stanford Cardinal in a Pac-12 matchup on Friday. Colorado has had a bit of a rollercoaster ride in the first half of the season. They're looking to maintain their momentum, and this game against the visiting Cardinal seems like the perfect opportunity. The Buffaloes are coming off a strong performance, scoring on 3 of their last 4 possessions against ASU last week. Their offense is on the right track, and despite facing a challenging schedule this year, they're determined to keep their bowl dreams alive. Shedeur Sanders has been a reliable quarterback with 16 TD's and only 2 INT's, showing good ball protection. He's starting to get the offense rolling, and that has to strike fear into the trees for this one. Colorado ticks a lot of the boxes against this edition of the Stanford team. Stanford is just 1-4 on the year and they’ve been throttled on a few instances in conference play. Also mix in a loss to Sacramento State and this team is abysmal so far. Colorado’s offense is rolling right now and they should be able to pick apart this Stanford side. Look for a lot quick plays and for them to open things up as the game goes on. Stanford has struggled with fast paced teams and this is one here they will have their hands full with. I think CU will prove to be too strong for the trees. This has all the makings of a 17+ point win. Some trends to note, Stanford are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games, and they're 1-9 SU in their last 10 games, plus they're 0-7 SU in their last 7 games against an opponent in the Pac-12. Back Colorado tonight at home at Folsom. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* CFB ATS Play |

UNDER 6.5 Probable Goaltenders: Tristan Jarry (0-1 3.10GAA, 0.914 SV%) vs. Darcy Kuemper 2022 Stats 22-26-7 2.83 GAA, .909 SV%) The Penguins (0-1-0) are facing off against the Capitals (0-0-0). The game is set for 7:30 PM EDT at Capital One Arena, and the latest odds favor PIT at -120 with an over/under of 6.5. You can watch this one on ESPN+. This game brings together a legendary rivalry in the NHL. Crosby and Ovechkin, the captains of their respective teams, have always brought out the best in each other. With 65 previous head-to-head matchups and Pittsburgh holding a 38-23-4 advantage, this is matchup #66. (Mario Lemieux reference anyone?) Pittsburgh started their campaign on a disappointing note, losing 4-2 to the Blackhawks at home. As for the Capitals, this game marks their home opener. Jarry is for my money one of the top netminders in the NHL. This year, he got a new $26M deal, after becoming the 2nd quickest goalie in team history to get 100 wins. In the 2021-22 season, he played 34 games and won 18 with 6 ties, boasting a 2.24 GAA, .919 SV%, and 4 shutouts. In the 2022-23 season, he did pretty well again, winning 24, tying 13, and losing 7, with a 2.90 GAA and .313 SV%, plus 2 shutouts. Even though he lost on Tuesday, he still looked solid, stopping 31 out of 34 shots. For the Caps we get Kuemper. The 32-year-old had his first year in Washington. He finished with a 22-26-7 2.83 GAA, .909 SV%. The Capitals gave him a $26M contract last year, hoping for big things. He won the Avs a cup before. Big goalies make big plays in big games. I think he'll step up on Friday. We won with an UNDER NHL play last night on the premium side of things with the Knights/Sharks, so going back to the well tonight in this Penguins v. Capitals matchup. The focus here is on the goalies, and it looks like a close match with the potential for a 3-2 game ending in overtime. I'm expecting a tight, close-checking affair, with limited chances. Last season the Pens were 16th in goals, and the Caps were 20th. A couple of trends to note, dating back to last year the UNDER has hit in 6 of the Pens L7, and 4 of their L5 on the road. We're on the UNDER here on TGIF. The UNDER hit in 2/3 games between these two last season. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NHL O/U Play |

Memphis +5 Tulane Green Wave (4-1, 2-3 ATS) takes on Memphis Tigers (4-1, 1-4 ATS) this Friday at 7:00PM ET in Memphis at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium. You can catch it on ESPN. If you're into betting, the Green Wave are the favorites by 4.5 points, and the over/under is set at 54.5. If you're going for a straight-up bet, Tulane is at -196, while Memphis is at +164. In their previous games, the Green Wave won against the UAB Blazers with a score of 35-23, while Memphis secured a victory over Boise State, winning 35-32. We’re on Memphis here, grabbing the points at home. Memphis comes in as underdogs in a spot where they matchup well. The Tigers are 4-1 and they’ve done it with their offense coming up with some big time plays when they need it the most. They come in off an impressive 35-32 win over Boise State last time out as their balanced attack is tough to stop. They will wear teams down and we saw Ashton Jeanty rumbled for a pair of touchdowns in the win over the Broncos. Maddux Madsen has also came up with some plays as he’s stepped into the starter role. He has turned it over just 1 time while throwing for 5 touchdowns. This will be one of the best teams Tulane has seen thus far, which adds to the value for Memphis. With a big crowd expected, we’re playing the Tigers here to cover and potentially steal this one outright. Some trends to note, Tulane are 3-13 SU in their last 16 games against Memphis. On the other side, Memphis are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games plus they're 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home. Enjoy the evening, and only bet what you can afford! :) We're on the Tigers on Friday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. TGIF 9* CFB ATS Play |

10-12-23 | Golden Knights v. Sharks UNDER 6.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 30 m | Show | |
UNDER 6.5 Probable Goalies: Logan Thompson (Confirmed) vs. Kaapo Kahkonen (Confirmed) The Sharks kick off their regular season hosting the Champs, the Vegas Knights, on tonight at the SAP Center, starting at 7:30 p.m. You can catch the game on NBCSCA and ESPN+. In terms of odds, the Knights are favored with a -1.5 puckline at +105 odds, while they're -250 on the ML. The Sharks are the underdogs at +190 on the ML. What catches our eye is the total score, set at a reasonable 6.5. This home opener for the Sharks is a big one. The Knights started strong with a 4-1 win in their home opener against the Kraken. They were up 3-0 in the second as they got out to a fast start. Last season, the two teams split their 4-game series, each winning twice, both at home and on the road. The Knights have been dominant at SAP Center, winning eight of their last nine meetings in San Jose. We've seen the UNDER hit in 5 of the previous 7 matchups at SAP Center. In between the pipes, Thompson, plagued by injuries last season with Vegas, posted a record of 21-13-3, maintaining a solid .915 save %, and a 2.65 GAA. He is set to make the start tonight as Vegas aims to kickstart the seasons for both Thompson and Hill. In contrast, Kahkonen had a challenging 2022-23 season, recording 9 wins, 20 losses, and 7 ties, with a less impressive 3.85 GAA and a .883 save %. The big question is how San Jose will find their offense, especially with the absence of key players like Logan Couture. They were 25th in GPG (2.84) last year. Are players like Blackwood, Duclair, Rutta, and Granlund really the answer? How do the Sharks replace Couture's 27G, 40A, and 198SOG? I guess Hertl is your man. Also, you know and I know they never replaced Erik Karlsson. I'm projecting this one looks like it's ending in a 5-1, 4-1, or 4-0 result. Some trends to note, dating back to last season as well, the total has gone UNDER in 4 of Vegas' last 5 games on the road, plus San Jose are 1-8 SU in their last 9 games when playing at home against Vegas. Back the UNDER with confidence on Thursday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray Thursday 8* NHL O/U Play |

10-12-23 | Broncos v. Chiefs UNDER 47 | 8-19 | Win | 100 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
Under 47 It's KC v. Denver week! Week 6 has arrived, and it kicks off with the Chiefs facing the Broncos on Thursday Night Football at Arrowhead. The game starts at 8:15 p.m. ET and can be watched on Amazon Prime Video. Betting-wise, the odds are: Chiefs -10.5, over/under 50 points, money line: Chiefs -550, Denver +400. The Chiefs are doing well with a 4-1 record and are tied with the Dolphins for the best AFC record. They won their last game 27-20 against Minnesota. On the flip side, the struggling Broncos (1-4) are at the bottom of the AFC West and share the conference's worst record with the Pats. They recently lost to the Jets, 31-21. Denver's situation is dicey, and they might start selling players soon, but we're not touching the spread. It's gone from 7 to 10.5, and it feels like a TRAP game. We're passing on the spread an instead have dug into the total on this one. We’re on the Under here. This has the makings of a very slowly played game. The Broncos are just in turmoil right now. The Jets ran all over them and forced so many issues for Wilson in the process. Denver’s offense is just far too inconsistent to even keep up here. Knowing that, they’re going to try to establish the run and do whatever they can to slow this game down. Their top priority is to keep the ball away from Mahomes. Kansas City is going to do the same thing, but for a different reason. They will look to do what New York did and run all over this Broncos defense. Expect to see a lot of clock chewing, which will certainly benefit us in this case. We're going against the grain and betting the UNDER. We're closely monitoring the weather for this one too, and as is often the case in Kansas City, it has the potential to be quite unpredictable at game time. Current forecasts indicate wind speeds of up to 25MPH and a likelihood of rain exceeding 75%. Some trends to note, the total has gone UNDER in 6 of Kansas City's last 9 games, plus, we've seen the UNDER his in 4 of KC's last 5 games against an opponent in the AFC West. Back the UNDER tonight on Thursday Night Football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NFL O/U Play |

10-12-23 | Braves v. Phillies +1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 18 m | Show | |
Philadelphia RL RHP Spencer Strider (20-5, 3.86 ERA) and LHP Ranger Suárez (4-6, 4.18 ERA) The Phillies are close to reaching the NLCS with just one more win needed. Thanks to Harper and 6 home runs, they dominated the Braves in Game 3 of the Division Series on Wednesday. They now lead the series 2-1, with Game 4 set for Thursday at Citizens Bank Park. The game starts at 8:07 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on TBS. In terms of odds, the Braves are favored at -155, while the Phillies stand at +130, with an over/under of 8.5 runs. We’re on Phili RL here in Game 4. The Phillies come in after throttling the Braves to take a 2-1 lead in the best of 5. We saw the fans doing the tomahawk chop and even chants of “we want strider” were being belted out. Well, they get their chance here on Thursday night to see him. Strider comes in 0-1 this postseason after going 7 innings in Game 1. This Phillies lineup knows him and is red hot right now. This is the kind of game where they can lean on the experience of just facing him and make him work. We’ve seen Strider be visibly frustrated at times and this Phillies lineup can get to him early on. Ranger Suarez counters and he should be able to give the Phillies similar length like he did last time. He went 3.2 innings, allowing just 1 hit against Atlanta. This is the kind of game they can steal outright and take the series. Some trends to note, the Phils are 6-3 SU in their last 9 games on the road. Atlanta are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games. Back the Phillies on the RL tonight! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* MLB RL Play |

10-12-23 | SMU v. East Carolina OVER 49.5 | 31-10 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 50 m | Show | |
OVER 49.5 ECU has won five out of the nine previous games against SMU, but our main focus for this matchup is the total score. The Mustangs aim to stay unbeaten in AAC action as they face the Pirates on Thursday night in Greenville, N.C. The game kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET. Betting details: SMU is favored by 11.5 points, the over/under is set at 49.5 points, and in straight-up betting, SMU is at -458, while East Carolina is at +343. SMU, with a record of 3-2, opened conference play with a 34-16 win over Charlotte a couple of weeks ago and had a bye week last week. They come into this one fresh, and will have some new schemes locked in to take advantage of a shoddy red zone defense on the other side. The Pirates, at 1-4, have lost three games by big margins and were defeated 24-17 by Rice in their AAC opener on Sept. 30th. I'm going against the PUBLIC in this one. I'm fading the defenses that are getting all the publicity. My forecast calls for points in this one. 54 on the low end. The public has bet this one down to 49.5. SMU comes into this one averaging 32PPG in their L7 games, while ECU comes in 30PPG in their L7. ECU are giving up 25PPG on D, SMU is giving up 19PPG. SMU can run and throw the ball, heck, so can ECU, conditions look good tonight, and I'm projecting we're going to get offense. Both teams allow a ton of explosive plays too, so with any luck we'll see some quick scores as well. I believe in the offenses, more than the defenses with these two clubs. Some trends to note, we've seen the total go OVER in 5 of SMU's last 5 games when playing on the road against ECU. Also, the total has gone OVER in 6 of ECU's last 6 games vs. the Mustangs. Back the OVER. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* CFB O/U Play |

10-12-23 | West Virginia -2.5 v. Houston | 39-41 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 41 m | Show | |
West Virginia -2.5 Week 7 of college football is here, and it's time for the Cougars (2-3, 2-3 ATS) to take on the Mountaineers (4-1, 4-1 ATS) in a Big 12 showdown. The game kicks off at 7 p.m. ET at TDECU Stadium. West Virginia is favored by 3 points, and the total points expected to be scored is 49.5. If you're into straight-up bets, West Virginia leads with odds of -148, while Houston stands at +124. The Cougars are 0-2 in the Big 12, are still chasing their first conference win after tough losses to TCU and Texas Tech. On the other side, the Mountaineers are riding high with only 1 blemish on their record overall and 2-0 in the Big 12. This is the first meeting between the two sides in their program histories, and we’re on the Mountaineers here, laying the points on the road. The Mountaineers come in with winners of 4 straight overall after dropping the opener to Penn State. They’ve rattled over wins over TCU, Texas Tech, Pitt, and Duquesne as they look to crack the Top 25 with a win here. They’ve done it with their defense. They’ve been able to force turnovers and they aren’t shy about bringing pressure. That should be the case here once again as Houston has been making mistakes offensively thus far into the season. West Virginia should be able to dictate a lot in this game, really frustrating the Coogs. An early lead will have them reeling, similar to what Texas Tech did to these Cougars last week. Keep an eye on Garrett Greene, the standout QB for West Virginia. He's been impressive with 550 passing yards, 4 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions, not to mention his rushing skills with 185 yards. (A dual thread if there ever was one). He already has two career 100-yard rush games. Greene is a born leader, and he's got the team following his lead, and facing a Cougars defense that's struggling, allowing an average of 30PPG. The Cougs won't be able to stop the rushing attack of WV in this one. Some trends to note, WV are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games, and 5-1 SU in their last 6 games. On the other side the Cougars are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games at home. Back the Mountain Men on Thursday night college football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NCAA ATS Play |

10-11-23 | Jets v. Flames -135 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 157 h 43 m | Show | |
Flames ML Starting Goalies: (Expected) Hellebuyck vs. Markstrom The 2023-24 NHL season continues this Wednesday as the Jets face off against the Flames at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta. The game is scheduled to start at 10:00 PM ET. In terms of odds, the Jets are at +120, the Flames are at -125, and the Over/Under is set at 6.5 (if available) or 6 at most sportsbooks. Last season, Hellebuyck had a record of 37 wins, 25 losses, and 2 ties in 64 starts, posting a 2.49 goals-against average (GAA) and a .920 save percentage. On the other hand, Jacob Markstrom had a record of 23 wins, 21 losses, and 12 ties with a 2.92 GAA and a .892 save percentage. Two teams who fell short in the playoffs will meet to open the season on Wednesday. We’re on the Flames here at home. Calgary has their entire core back and after a disappointing season in 2022-2023, they are looking to rebound in a big way. The Flames are poised for a big year and expectations are still very high for them. Last season they ranked 2nd in total shots in the entire league. They have the playmakers who love to crash the net and they aren’t shy about peppering the opposing goal. They will beat teams with multiple shots per possession as well. They welcome in new head coach, Ryan Huska, who should be a huge asset to this team. They’re the better team in this spot. Look for the Flames to come in with some fire with a new head coach and with this being opening night, they will try and get out early here. It surely doesn't hurt that the Flames came back from a 3-1 deficit vs. the Jets this past Tuesday to win 5-4 in a preseason matchup. Matt Coronato is proving to be a legitimate scoring force for CGY with 4G and 7P in the preseason. Some trends to note, dating back to last year obviously the Jets are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games on the road, and Calgary are 6-3 SU in their last 9 games, plus the Flames were solid last October going 11-2. The Flames had a record of 2-1 vs. the Jets in 2022-23. They won 3-2, and 3-1, and lost 3-2. I'm expecting another fast start for the Flames to open the 2023/24 NHL season. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-11-23 | Sam Houston State v. New Mexico State -3.5 | 13-27 | Win | 100 | 35 h 36 m | Show | |
New Mexico State -3.5 The Sam Houston Bearkats (0-5, 3-1-1 ATS) will face off against the New Mexico State Aggies (3-3, 4-2 ATS) in NCAAF Week 7. This game will be held at Aggie Memorial Stadium, and it's a matchup between two Conference USA teams. The kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. MT, and you can catch it on CBSSN. The Aggies are the favorites by 3.5 points, with the over/under set at 41.5 points. The money line shows the Aggies at -172 and the Bearkats at +143. We’re on New Mexico State in this Wednesday night spot. The Aggies take on a Bearkats team that is new to the FBS and it has not gone according to plan. They remain winless and this offense has looked bad for the most part. They haven’t scored over 16 points and in fact they've only scored 10 points combined through their first three games of the season. New Mexico State took down FAU last week by 17 and have momentum coming in here. This offense has shown some solid signs throughout their 3 wins and they have the capabilities of producing some big plays. We’re backing the more experienced team with a much better all-around team on both sides of the ball. In their previous games, Sam Houston suffered a 21-16 loss against Liberty, while New Mexico State secured a 34-17 victory over FIU. Some trends to note, Sam Houston State are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games, and are 0-5 SU in their last 5 games on the road. On the other side New Mexico State are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. and they're 9-4 SU in their last 13 games. We're backing the Aggies. Give the points on Wednesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-11-23 | Canadiens v. Maple Leafs UNDER 6.5 | 5-6 | Loss | -107 | 150 h 59 m | Show | |
UNDER 6.5 Goaltenders: (Likely) Allen vs. Samsonov NHL opening night and we're locking in the UNDER in this matchup between the Leafs and the Habs. The Habs are +240 ML dog, the Leafs -300, on the Puckline you're seeing the Leafs getting -130 odds at -1.5, and the Habs are +1.5 (+110), we're seeing the O/U at 6.5. Last season, the Leafs finally broke a long playoff drought, winning their first postseason series in 19 years by beating the Lightning in 6. On the other hand, the Habs had a tough year, struggling with injuries and ending up near the bottom of the NHL standings. Predictions for 23/24 have the Leafs being a top club once again, and we can't say the same for the Habs, but on opening night, game 1 of the season, you're going to see their best efforts. At this time we don't know who will be in net for Montreal. (Allen/Montembeault). For the Leafs the goalie situation looks good, and I'd expect Samsonov to get the opening night start. In 42 games, he went 27-10-5, with a GAA of 2.33 and a save percentage of .919. In 22/23 Jake Allen finished 15-24-3 with a 3.55GAA, and a .891 Save%. We're posting this game much earlier than the season start obviously, but just looking at the matchups between these two teams last year has me going with a STRONG lean on this one to the UNDER in game 1 of the 2023/24 NHL season. They played each other 4 times in 2022/23. The series was split 2-2. We saw 7, 5, 6, and 8 total goals in the 4 games. Obviously that's 2-2 on the O/U line, but for game one of the season these two teams are going to come out and play their best defensive hockey. Energy will be high, and workrates will be off the charts, with all the adrenaline to start the year. Some trends to note, we've seen the total go UNDER in 4 of Montreal's last 5 games when playing on the road vs. the Leafs. Plus to end the 22/23 season we saw the total go UNDER in 7 of Toronto's last 7 games, and in the last 10 vs. the HABS the total has gone UNDER 7x. We're backing the goalies getting the better of the shooters as we start the year, and we're throwing out the preseason games between these two, none of the lineups were exactly what we'll see on opening night. (the 3-game series did have 2 unders and 1 over however) THE NHL IS BACK! Back the UNDER on opening night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 6* NHL O/U Play |

10-11-23 | Astros +110 v. Twins | 3-2 | Win | 110 | 10 h 19 m | Show | |
Houston +110 Probable Pitchers: HOU - J. Urquidy-R vs MIN - J. Ryan-R The Astros are close to their seventh straight ALCS win, just one W away. Houston leads 2-1 against the Twins in the ALDS, aiming to finish the series. The game starts at 7:07 p.m. ET and will be played at Target Field in Minneapolis. You can catch it on FS1. The odds favor the Twins at -125, while the Astros are at +105. The over/under stands at 8.5 runs. The starting pitchers are RHP Joe Ryan (11-10, 4.51 ERA) for the Twins and RHP José Urquidy (3-3, 5.29 ERA) for the Astros. We’re on Houston here, once again. We backed Houston in Game 3 and they dominated from start to finish. The offense did exactly what they’ve been doing all year long, responding to losses in a big way. Jose Abreu bombed two homers for us en route to a big win. Now, they have a chance to knock out the Twins on Wednesday. Houston is just leaning on their experience and they now have the Twins on the ropes. Minnesota has struggled mightily in elimination games as well. Jose Urquidy has come up in some good spots for the Stros as well. He pitched a gem to close his regular season out against the Dbacks and can lean on that. He’s countered by Joe Ryan battled injuries in the 2nd half of the season and struggled mightily down the stretch. He is the perfect person to fade here in this high leverage spot. Some trends to note, Houston are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games, and are 10-5 SU in their last 15 games against Minnesota. Lastly, they're 5-0 SU in their last 5 games on the road, and they're 9-3 SU in their last 12 games when playing on the road against the Twins. We're on the Astros to close this one out today. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* MLB ML Play |

10-11-23 | Braves v. Phillies -121 | 2-10 | Win | 100 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
Philadelphia -121 Probable Pitchers: Elder (Named Starter) 3.81 ERA vs. Nola (13-9) ERA: 4.31 Braves have named Elder Game 3 NLDS starter. Elder will have a short leash I guarantee you that. His 1.28 WHIP and 128:63 K:BB across 31 starts does not give me the warm and fuzzy's. The NLDS moves to Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia on Wednesday. After each team won one game, the series is now a best-of-three. Today's game is at 5:07 p.m. ET, at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, and you can catch it on TBS. The MLB betting odds stand at PHI -130, ATL +110, with an over/under of 9 runs. Game 2 was about as electric as you could get. The Braves battled all the way back and made a sensational double play with a catch at the wall to seal it in the 9th. This is the kind of series where these two teams will continue to exchange blows. Philadelphia has proven it’s hard to come in and win at Citizens Bank Ballpark. They dominated Miami in the wild card round and they put together good performances all season here. This is the kind of team built for moments like this and Nola is going to come up big for them. He’s already got one dominate start under his belt against the Marlins and is looking to repeat his 7.0 inning, 3 hit masterpiece. (We expect Smith-Shawver to still pitch today) He hasn’t had much success to build off of and this Phili offense is going to make him work. Look for them to rack his pitch count up early and produce a lot of scoring opportunities. Some trends to note, Atlanta are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games played in October. Philadelphia are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games, and they're 8-1 SU in their last 9 games at home. The more I research this matchup the more I think we might witness both Smith-Shawver and Elder playing in this game, in one way or another. Even with the Braves' starting pitcher "gamesmanship" we’re on the Phillies, here at home in Game 3. Phillies get a leg up in the NLDS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* MLB ML Play |

App State -5 Tuesday's matchup features the Costal Carolina Chanticleers (2-3, 3-2 ATS) taking on the Appalachian State Mountaineers (3-2, 2-2-1 ATS). This game is set to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET from Kidd Brewer Stadium in Boone. The Mountaineers are favored by 6.5 points, with a total points over/under set at 61. The money line shows Coastal Carolina Chanticleers at +198 and the Mountaineers at -245. We’re on App State here as weekday FUN Belt action gets underway. App State comes in 3-2 as this team has still looked impressive so far. They come in after a 41-40 win over UL Monroe on the road. They’ve given both Wyoming and North Carolina games to the wire on the road this year as well. At home, they’re 2-0 and looked good offensively crushing ECU and Gardner Webb. This team should overpower Coastal. They have the big play ability and can put together some good drives on opposing defenses. They’ll frustrate this Coastal side that simply doesn’t have enough firepower. This is the kind of game App State can get out early and keep their foot on the gas. Game time weather looks to be in the Mid 50's. (F) Some trends to note, CC are 3-6 ATS in their last 9 games, and 2-4 SU in their last 6 games against App St. App St. are 6-0 SU in their last 6 games at home. Notably, this marks the seventh meeting between these schools, with the Mountaineers holding a 4-2 series lead. In their last encounter in 2022, the Chanticleers emerged victorious with a 35-28 win at Brooks Stadium. We're on App State here on Tuesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CFB ATS Play |

10-10-23 | Predators v. Lightning -150 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 27 m | Show | |
Lightning -150 Starting Goalies - Juuse Saros (Unconfirmed) vs. Jonas Johansson (Confirmed) The 2023-24 NHL season is set to start this tonight at 5:30 p.m. ET. It faces off with a game between the Predators and Lightning at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. The line opened with the Lightning favored to win at -170 odds, and the total score prediction is 6.5 goals. Now, at -150 we're getting some good value on the home side. In the pipes tonight, Saras (NSH) had a 32-23-7 record, 2.69 GAA and .919 save percentage in 63 appearances last season. Johansson is set to start the season as Tampa Bay's top goalie. This comes after Vasilevskiy had back surgery and is likely to be out for the first two months of the season. Johansson's NHL record is 11 wins, 13 losses, 4 ties, a 3.35 GAA, and a save percentage of .886 in 35 games. Tampa Bay begins its trek for a 4th cup as they welcome in the Preds on Tuesday. Tampa Bay has been near the top of the standings constantly and also near the top in many offensive categories. This team is built with a lot of depth and can really attack the net from many different angles. They’re so good at putting 2 or 3 shots on net at a time, overwhelming the opposition. Look for the trio of Kucherov, Point, and Stamkos to lead this charge on Tuesday. They have constantly put up big numbers and they should have their way against this Preds defense. Offensive should be in high form and there is value on this Tampa side. Some trends to note, Nashville are 2-11 SU in their last 13 games against Tampa Bay, and they're 1-6 SU in their last 7 games played in October. It's another NHL season and I'm here to make you some money betting on my favorite sport! You won't see me bet over -150 much, but this is one line I really love to start the season. We're backing the home side in their NHL home opener tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL Opening Night ML Play |

10-10-23 | Astros +120 v. Twins | 9-1 | Win | 120 | 7 h 33 m | Show | |
Astros +120 Probable Pitchers: HOU - C. Javier-R vs MIN - S. Gray-R After splitting the first two games of the series, the Houston Astros (90-72) and Minnesota Twins (87-75) are aiming to get closer to winning this 2023 ALDS match as they meet on Tuesday in Minneapolis. The game will start at 4:07 p.m. ET at Target Field. In terms of betting, the odds indicate Houston at +114 and Minnesota at -134 on the money line. The over/under for the total runs is set at 8, and the run line favors Minnesota at -1.5 with odds of +156. Houston has value here. The Astros had nothing going for them in Game 2 and now will have to steal home field back from the Twins on Tuesday afternoon. Christian Javier is just the guy you want on the hill here. Javier, a right-handed pitcher is 10-5 with an ERA of 4.56, In 31 games, he threw 162 innings. During that time, he had 62 walks and 159 strikeouts, with a WHIP of 1.27. He’s came up in clutch spot after clutch spot and he has confidence heading in here. He shut the Diamondbacks down in his final start as he went 6.0 innings allowing 0 runs just on 3 hits. The Astros lineup should produce here too. Gray is very hittable and Houston is one of the best at making pitchers work. Look for them to get to Gray early here and put a lot of traffic on the base paths. Game time weather has things in the mid 50's (F). Historically, the Astros have a 47-40 lead in their head-to-head matchups, which includes a 3-1 advantage in postseason games. Gray had two no decisions vs. the Stros in the regular season. Some trends to note, Houston are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games on the road, and they're 5-1 SU in their last 6 games. Back the road team on Tuesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Dodgers ML Probable Pitchers: ARI - Z. Gallen-R vs LAD - B. Miller-R The LA Dodgers play against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the second NLDS game on Monday at 9:07 PM ET, airing on TBS from Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers aim to recover after losing Game 1.

In 2023, Miller had a good 3.76 ERA and 1.10 WHIP, with 119 strikeouts and 32 walks in 124.1 innings. DBacks' Zack Gallen, who struggled on the road with a 4.42 ERA and 1.20 WHIP is on the other side.. In his last game, Miller allowed two runs in 6.1 innings against the Astros, taking a loss. Gallen's challenge is his weaker road performance. This is a nice spot to back LA in a bounce back position. The Dodgers were dead and buried before they could even bat in Game 1. However, this has been a bounce back team all season long and they rarely allow losses to pile up. The offense is the biggest key here. They have to stake Bobby Miller to an early lead and allow him to settle in. Los Angeles was one of the top offenses in the MLB all season long as they produced runs with the long ball and situational hitting. They will make Zac Gallen work and try to get his pitch count up early. The Dbacks pen has a lot of question marks as well, which should benefit this play here. Look for LA to get a good outing from Miller and for them to see the stars like Betts and Freeman come up with some clutch plays. Some trends to note, Arizona are 1-5 SU in their L6 games against LA Dodgers. On the other side LA are 12-6 SU in their L18 games, and they're 15-5 SU in their L20 games when playing at home against Arizona. Miller faced the DBacks 2x in the regular season, and held them to 4 runs in 12 innings of work. Gallen wasn't good vs. LAD this year, allowing 11 runs, 16 hits, and 3 walks in his 2 starts. Back the Dodgers on the ML tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* MLB ML Play |

If you want to bet on the winner, the Packers have odds of -103, and the Raiders have odds of -115. We’re on the Packers here, on the road. Green Bay is at the benefit of having a few extra days off, which is going to prove to be pivotal here. The Packers come in 2-2 and Jordan Love has been the biggest key for them coming into play. He’s stepped up after taking the reigns and has shown he has the ability to lead this offense. Love has tossed for 8 touchdowns so far as he continues to put up some impressive numbers. This Raiders defense is a struggle and that should help the cause here moving forward on Monday. They’ve been really bad at times slowing down the pass, which has led them to a 1-3 start. Look for Love to pick apart this secondary and put together some solid plays. We should see plenty of open passing lanes for him, resulting in some big moves down field. The Raiders have not beaten Green Bay since 1987, with the Packers winning eight times in a row. The last game was in 2019, with the Packers winning 42-20 at Lambeau Field. Some trends to note, for starters Green Bay are 8-0 SU in their last 8 games against Las Vegas, and they're 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games. Las Vegas are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games at home, are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games, and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. Grab the points. This is going to feel like a Green Bay home game, expect the majority of the stadium to be wearing Cheese Heads! Packers ATS! Good Luck, Razor Ray. MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL 9* NFL ATS Play |
