20* SHARP PLAY on Memphis +3½ -112

Memphis (+3.5) is worth a look as a home dog against the Knights. The Knights just lost 26-34 at home to Tulsa last week and I see them losing again here on the road against the Tigers. No question Memphis had this game circled. It's the first time they get a shot at UCF since they lost two twice in the 2018 season. Once in the regular season and again in the AAC title game. Love the spot here and the points with the Tigers. Play Memphis +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Houston -6½ -110

The Cougars (-6.5) are worth a look in Thursday's College Football action against Tulane. Houston has been itching to get their 2020 season started, as they have had 5 different games get canceled. I'm really excited what year two could bring for the Cougars under head coach Dana Holgorsen. I think the fact that Houston hasn't played is giving us some value here. Tulane is 2-1, but those two wins are against Southern Miss and South Alabama. The other was a bad loss to a horrible Navy team. Play Houston -6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on BYU -24 -105

No. 22 BYU (-24) is worth a look in Friday's only college football play on the board. The Cougars have looked sensational to start the season. They absolutely destroyed Navy 55-3 in their opener. They then trounced Troy 48-7. Add it up and BYU has outscored their first two opponents 103 to 10. Louisiana Tech is also 2-0, but one of those wins is against Houston Baptist and the other a 31-30 win at Southern Miss. Note that Southern Miss is 0-3 and in their other two games lost by 10 at home to South Alabama and by 42 to North Texas (66-24). Play BYU -24! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Missouri +28 -104

I'll take my chances with Missouri (+28) as a massive dog against Alabama in the opener for both teams. I know the Crimson Tide have been great in season openers, but none of those were against a conference opponent. Mac Jones was great in place of Tua last year, but a lot of that had to do with the talent at wide receiver. Sure the Tide are still loaded at the position, but they are not as strong losing both Henry Ruggs and Jerry Jeudy. Both of which were selected in the 1st round of the NFL draft. It won't be pretty, but the Tigers find a way to keep it within 4 touchdowns. Play Missouri +28! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Middle Tennessee State +7 -110

The Blue Raiders (+7) are worth a look here against the Roadrunners in Friday's college football action. No one wants anything to do with Middle Tennessee after watching them get annihilated 42-0 by Army in their opener and then lose 47-14 at home against Troy this past Saturday. The books know this and I think we are getting a good price on the Blue Raiders because of it. UTSA barely beat a Texas State team that's picked to finish in the bottom of the Sun Belt and only beat FCS opponent Stephen F Austin by a score of 24-10. Play Middle Tennessee +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on UAB +14½ -110

UAB (+14.5) is worth a look as more than a two touchdown dog against Miami. I know the Hurricanes added in a nice talent at QB in King, but this isn't exactly a great year for transfers with the lack of spring practice and offseason workouts. UAB isn't flashy, but they just keep covering under head coach Bill Clark. They were 8-5-1 ATS last year and are 26-13-2 over the last 3 years. I like them to give Miami a scare. Play the Blazers +14.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on South Alabama +15 -110

The Jaguars (+15) are worth a look here. I think we are getting a good price on South Alabama coming off a 2-10 campaign in 2019. Jaguars are now in year 3 under head coach Steve Campbell. USA has 15 returning starters are really excited about sophomore quarterback Desmond Trotter. He took over the offense the final 4 games and them scoring over 10 points more per game! Southern Miss has a number of key guys sitting out and are running new schemes on both sides of the ball. Play South Alabama +15! 

20* MINNESOTA/AUBURN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Minnesota +7½ -110

My money is on the Gophers to cash in a cover here as a 7.5-point dog against the Tigers. I just think Auburn is getting way too much respect in this spot. Bowl games are all about motivation and I just have to wonder how motivated the Tigers are for this game, as they won their biggest game of the season in their finale against Alabama. Minnesota will be 100% locked in for this one and I really wouldn't be shocked at all if they won this game outright. BET THE GOPHERS +7.5! 

20* PITT/E MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh -11 -110

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a win and cover against Eastern Michigan in Thursday's Quick Lane Bowl. A lot of people are leaning to the Eagles because of the fact that Pitt hasn't won a game all season by more than 10 points. I just think that's a mistake. The Panthers are hands down the better team and Eastern Michigan is lucky to even be in a bowl. The Eagles went just 3-5 in a awful MAC conference this year, which was tied for the 3rd worst record in the league. I just don't think they have any hope of keeping this close. BET THE PANTHERS -11! 

20* BYU/HAWAII CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawaii +2 -108

My money is on the Rainbow Warriors to cash in a win and cover at home against BYU. This has been quite a season for Hawaii, who just got done playing the MWC Championship Game. I think the Warriors are going to be really excited here to cap off this season with a win at home, which would give them double-digit wins on the season. They also want their revenge on BYU from last year's blowout loss in Provo. I don't know that the same motivation will be there for the Cougars in this one. BET HAWAII +2! 

20* UAB/FAU CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UAB +9 -108

My money is on UAB to cash in a cover here against FAU. I liked the Blazers at this price even before the news that Owls head coach Lane Kiffin was leaving to take over at Ole Miss. I just think that's a gut punch to the FAU kids and takes away from this game. At the same time, no one wants to give this UAB team any love and I think they come out with a serious chip on their shoulder and could easily see them winning outright. BET THE BLAZERS +9! 

20* TOLEDO/C MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Central Michigan -10 -110

My money is on the Chippewas to cash in an easy win and cover as a double-digit home favorite against the Rockets. This script for this game turned upside down when Western Michigan was upset at Northern Illinois on Tuesday. Had the Broncos won they would have clinched a spot in the MAC title game. The loss however, opened the door for Central Michigan and if they win they are now the team that plays Miami (OH) next week. Not a lot for Toledo to play for and they just haven't been that great of late. BET THE CHIPPEWAS -10! 

20* LIBERTY/VIRGINIA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Liberty +17 -109

My money is on the Flames to cash in a cover as a big road dog against the Cavaliers on Saturday. There's no denying that Virginia is the better team, but that's not the issue here. It's motivation. This game means nothing for the Panthers, whose primary focus right now is on winning the ACC Coastal. Next week's game against Va Tech will decide whether they do just that. I expect Virginia to go through the motions and if they aren't careful they might lose. BET LIBERTY +17! 

20* E MICHIGAN/N ILLINOIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois -4 -107

My money is on Northern Illinois to cash in a win and cover at home against the Eagles. Northern Illinois is a better team than their 4-6 record would lead you to believe. Huskies have simply been dealt a brutal schedule with 7 of their first 10 games on the road, three against Power 5 opponents in non-conference play. Last time out they won 31-28 at Toledo and really should have no problem putting away an Eagles team that is down this year. Always a good idea to take the Huskies off a big upset win in MAC play, as they are 15-2 ATS last 17 off an upset win over a conference rival. BET NORTHERN ILLINOIS -4! 

20* BALL STATE/W MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ball State +7 -110

My money is on Ball State to cash in a cover as a 7-point dog against the Broncos. This is the best Ball State team in years and I just don't think they are getting the respect they deserve in this one. Western Michigan isn't anything special and I wouldn't be shocked at all if they lost this game outright. BET BALL STATE +7! 

20* SMU/HOUSTON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +15 -115

My money is on the Cougars to cash in as big home dogs tonight. SMU comes in ranked in the Top 25 and without a loss. Houston has gotten zero love after losing their star quarterback (King) to a redshirt. I'm not saying they win the game, but we are going to get their best effort and winning on the road in these weekday games is just not as easy as people think. I'm confident the Cougars can keep it within two touchdowns. BET HOUSTON +15! 

20* LAFAYETTE/ARKANSAS ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UL-Lafayette -6 -110

My money is on the Ragin' Cajuns to bounce back from a disappointing loss at home to App State with a convincing road win over Arkansas State. I really like this Lafayette team and I think a lot of people are scared to back them because they had them last week and lost. Arkansas State just lost at Georgia State by 14 and have allowed 40+ points in each of their last 3 games vs a FBS opponent. BET THE RAGIN' CAJUNS -6! 

20* S ALABAMA/TROY CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Troy -14½ -110

My money is on the Trojans to make easy work of South Alabama and cover th 14.5-point spread at home Wednesday night. The narrative with Troy right now is that they are way down from what they had been in previous years. The Trojans are also just 1-4 ATS and just lost 42-10 at Missouri, which followed a upset loss at home to Ark State. I think it has troy laying a much shorter number than they should be against a bad Jaguars team that has not scored more than 21 points in a single game against a FBS opponent. BET THE TROJANS -14.5! 

20* VIRGINIA/MIAMI CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Miami-FL -2 -110

My money is on the Hurricanes. Not a lot to think about here. I know all the numbers say Virginia, but when you got a ranked team getting points against an unranked team that comes in with a losing record, you take the unranked team. Books don't make mistakes. They clearly think Miami wins this game and so do I. BET THE HURRICANES -2! 

20* S MISS/ALABAMA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Southern Miss +39½ -110

My money is on Southern Miss to cash in a cover on the road against Alabama. Books have really inflated the numbers on the Crimson Tide this year in these non-conference games. They failed to cover as a 55.5-point favorite at home against New Mexico State and couldn't get the job done last week as a 26-point favorite against South Carolina in their SEC opener. With big games against Ole Miss and Texas A&M on deck, look for Saban and the Tide to just go through the motions on Saturday and call off the dogs in the 2nd half Bet Southern Miss +39.5! 

20* FIU/LA TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Florida International +7½ -110

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a cover here getting 7.5 on the road against the Bulldogs. I just haven't seen enough out of LA Tech for them to be laying this kind of number. They beat Bowling Green 35-7, but that was a much closer game late than expected. The previous week they only beat Grambling 20-14 as a massive 30-point favorite. FIU has not looked great, but have played some tough competition. I'm willing to bet Butch Davis has the troops ready to go in this one. Bet the Panthers +7.5! 

20* HOUSTON/TULANE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +5½ -110

My money is on the Cougars to cash in a cover and maybe even win the game outright at Tulane on Thursday night. I just think this is the perfect time to buy low on Houston after their 1-2 start. Cougars two losses are two ranked Power 5 teams in Oklahoma and Washington State. Tulane is program on the rise, but I think they are getting a little too much love here for a hard fought 24-6 loss at Auburn. Last year Houston won 48-17 against the Green Wave and I just don't think Tulane should be laying this kind of number here. Bet Houston +5.5! 

20* NC STATE/W VIRGINIA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on West Virginia +7 -115

My money is on the Mountaineers to cash in a cover at home against the Wolfpack. NC State has looked like world beaters their first two games, but those were against East Carolina and Western Carolina. Both on their home turf. That combined with how bad WVU looked last week at Missouri has this line way too high. I give the Mountaineers a legit shot here to win this game outright. Bet West Virginia +7! 

20* WASH ST/HOUSTON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Washington State -9 -109

My money is on Washington State to go on the road and lay a beating on Houston. I think Houston is way overvalued coming into this season. Sure they got a good QB in King and added Dana Holgorsen as their head coach, but the defense is awful. Mike Leach and his new signal caller Anthony Gordon are lighting up teams and I think they could put 50 on the board here. I also think Wash State has an underrated defense that will be able to get off the field and create the separation needed to cover. Bet Washington State -9! 

20* UAB/AKRON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Akron +9½ -110

My money is on Akron to cash in a cover at UAB on Saturday. The Zips got annihilated 42-3 in Week 1 at Illinois. I think it has them undervalued here against a UAB team that has no business laying this kind of points on the road after barely squeaking by Alabama State 24-19 in their opener. Bet Akron +9.5! 

20* WAKE FOREST/RICE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wake Forest -19 -104

My money is on Wake Forest to cash in a win at Rice on Friday. I think Army was the ideal opponent for the Owls to be competitive against. All they had to do was focus on stopping the run and because the game was close throughout, they didn't have to force anything offensensively. THe problem with Rice is they only scored 7 points on 243 yards of offense. Their only points came on a 54-yard run. They also were 7 of 14 for 62 yards passing. Wake Forest can score and I think things could spiral out of control for the Owls offense when they are forced to throw the football playing from behind. Bet the Demon Deacons -19! 

20* NOTRE DAME/LOUISVILLE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Louisville +18½ -110

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a cover against the Fighting Irish. I think we have Louisville way undervalued coming into 2019 after last year's disastrous 2-10 campaign. Notre Dame on the other hand is always overvalued and even more so off a big season. Last year the Irish went 12-0 and made the playoffs. Things really got bad under Petrino last year and I think the effort just wasn't there. That's why I think new head coach Scott Satterfield is in a position for some success out of the gate. Bet the Cardinals +18.5! 

20* HOUSTON/OKLAHOMA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +23½ -110

My money is on the Cougars to cash in a cover as a massive road dog against the Sooners. Oklahoma is going to be good, but this is way too many points for them to be laying against a Houston team that is going to be better under Dana Holgorsen and has one of the best quarterbacks in the country in D'Eriq King. Guy accounted for 50 touchdowns last year (36 passing, 14 rushing). Bet the Cougars +23.5! 

20* AKRON/ILLINOIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Akron +19 -110

My money is on the Zipz to cash in a cover at Illinois. I get Akron is nothing special out of the MAC, but i like the quarterback they got in junior Kato Nelson. Illinois was a similar 16-point home favorite to open last year against a MAC team in Kent State. They would go on to win 31-24 in a game that was very evenly matched. That Kent State would go on to win 2-games. Illinois will be better, but should not be laying close to 3 touchdowns. Bet the Zips +19! 

20* RICE/ARMY CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rice +22 -110

My money is on the Owls to cash in an easy cover here as a 3+ touchdown dog at Army. I got nothing but respect for Jeff Monken and what he's doing with that program, but this line is whack. I get Rice hasn't been good, but this is too many points for a triple-option team that likes to run the clock and has only 4 starters back on defense to be laying. Keep in mind Army was a double-digit favorite once all of last year. Last time they were asked to lay more than 20 against a FBS team was in 2017 as a 23 point home favorite against UTEP. They won the game outright, but only by 14 points (35-21). I see a similar outcome coming tonight. Bet Rice +22! 

20* KENT ST/ARIZONA ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Kent State +25 -110

My money is on the Golden Flashes to cover the 25-point spread at Arizona State tonight. This is without a doubt my strongest play for Thursday's CFB card. The Sun Devils were better than expected in year one under Herm Edwards and I believe it has ASU overvalued coming into 2019. I also really like the direction the Flashes are going under new head coach Sean Lewis. He's an offensive minded guy and I think offensive coaches are the way to go right now and result in the quickest turnarounds/improvement. Last year Lewis' offense improved by 11.1 ppg and 109 ypg. They got 9 starters back and will be even stronger. I could see them keeping it close early or coming through the back door with a couple of late scores. Bet Kent State +25! 

20* FLORIDA/MIAMI CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Miami-FL +7½ -115

My money is on the Hurricanes to cash in an easy cover against in-state rival Florida on Saturday. Gators are coming off a double-digit win season and ranked inside the Top 10, while Miami is transitioning from Mark Richt to Manny Diaz and there's a lot of uncertainty at quarterback. I really like Diaz and I think he gets the most out of the talent at hand. Look for the defense to help out the offense, as the Canes elite Front 7 should dominate the Gators inexperienced offensive line that returns only 1 starter. Bet the Hurricanes +7.5! 

20* NORTH/SOUTH SENIOR BOWL SHARP PLAY on North -2½ -110

20* ALABAMA/CLEMSON CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WINNER on Clemson +6 -115

My money is Clemson to cash in the easy cover here against Alabama in the College Football Championship Game. The Crimson Tide are simply getting too much respect here. The Tigers are every bit as talented as Alabama at quarterback, head coach, defense, special teams. This line should be closer to a pick'em. Bet Clemson! 

20* WASHINGTON/OHIO STATE CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Washington +7 -110

My money is on the Huskies to cash in an easy cover here as a 7-point dog against the Buckeyes. It's not that I don't think Ohio State isn't the more talented team, I just think bowl games are all about motivation. The Buckeyes got passed up by the playoff committee, despite going 12-1 and winning the Big Ten title. I think after watching how bad Notre Dame played against Clemson that Ohio State was more deserving. It's just not the same playing in a bowl of less magnitude and then you got the distraction with Urban Meyer stepping down. I think Washington and Chris Petersen really need this game and will be 100% locked in. Bet the Huskies +7! 

20* HYUNDAI SUN BOWL SHARP TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh +5½ -109

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a winning ticket as a near touchdown dog against the Cardinal. A lot of people want to write-off what Pitt has been able to accomplish this year. You can't blame them for taking advantage of a weak Coastal. Stanford plays in the Pac-12 for cyring out loud, which is easily the worst of the Power 5 conferences. Not to mention the Cardinal weren't anything close to what we have seen in previous years and I think they will be lucky to win this thing. Bet Pittsburgh +5.5! 

20* PEACH BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Michigan -6½ -106

My money is on the Wolverines to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Gators. No one expecting Michigan to show up here after how they ended the season with that ugly loss to Ohio State, which kept them out of the Big Ten title and likely the college football playoff. I'm not buying that. I expect the Wolverines to come to play and that should be more than enough for them to beat a pretty average Florida team by at least a touchdown. Bet Michigan -6.5! 

20* ALAMO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iowa State +3 -109

My money is on the Cyclones to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Cougars in the 2018 Alamo Bowl. Washington State was one of the best stories in the country this year, as a lot of people thought they wouldn't even make a bowl and they nearly won the Pac-12. The thing is they were a win over their rivals away from playing for a conference title and a spot in the Rose Bowl. I just question if they are really happy about playing this game and at the same time, I don't trust them the slightest. Mike Leach's Cougars have been a favorite in each of the last 4 bowls they have gone to and only walked out with 1 win. Iowa State is arguably the better team and really has all the edges you look for when handicapping a bowl game. Bet the Cyclones +3! 

20* INDEPENDENCE BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Temple -3 -110

My money is on Temple to cash in an easy win and cover as a 3-point favorite against the Blue Devils in the 2018 Independence Bowl. The simple fact that the Owls are favored over a Power 5 opponent after their head coach left to take over at Georgia Tech really says it all. I just think people are really underestimating how much talent is on this Temple roster and I got major concerns for Duke's offense. The Blue Devils scored a mere 13 points in their final two games of the regular season and had 7 turnovers in their last 3 games. The Owls scored 40 or more in 3 of their last 4. Duke won't be able to keep up. Bet Temple -3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Toledo -5½ -110

My money is on the Rockets to cash in an easy cover here against FIU in the Bahamas Bowl. It's been a great year for the Panthers, but they are going into this one shorthanded and simply won't be able to keep it close. Starting quarterback and 2018 C-USA Newcomer of the Year, James Morgan is not going to play. They also had running back Sawndarrius Phillips arrested and he too won't be available. Toledo comes in averaging 41.1 ppg and 448 yards/game. FIU isn't going to be able to keep pace offensively without Morgan. Bet the Rockets -5.5! 

20* DXL FRISCO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on San Diego State +2½ +106

My money is on the Aztecs to cash in as a small dog against the Bobcats in the DXL Frisco Bowl. I just don't think the MAC is that good and Ohio is getting way too much love as a favorite here. I think San Diego State is the far superior team and will not only win this game outright, but win this thing in a blowout. Bet the Aztecs +2.5! 

20* BOCA RATON BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois +3 -115

My money is on Northern Illinois to cash in an easy cover as an underdog against UAB. I just think the books have completely missed the mark here, as I think the Huskies are the better team. UAB is a great story, but I don't think C-USA is all that it's made out to be. The Huskies are better than people think, as they played an absolutely brutal non-conference schedule against the likes of Iowa, Utah, FSU and BYU. They started out 6-0 in MAC play and had the division title wrapped up before losing their final two conference games. They then upset a really good Buffalo team in the MAC title game. Bet Northern Illinois +3! 

20* ALCORN ST/NC A&T CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Alcorn State +8 -109

20* BOISE ST/FRESNO ST CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Fresno State +2½ -110

20* IN-STATE RIVALRY CFB PLAY OF THE MONTH on NC State -7½ +106

My money is on the Wolfpack to add to what's been a miserable 2018 season for the Tar Heels. North Carolina is just 2-8 and one of those two wins came against a FCS foe in Western Carolina. NC State has had their ups and downs this year, but they are fresh off a 52-10 win at Louisville as a mere 16-point favorite and I see no reason not to expect them to win here by at least double-digits. Bet NC State -7.5! 

20* WASHINGTON ST/WASHINGTON CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Washington +3 -109

My money is on Washington to cash in an easy cover here against their in-state rivals. As tempting as it might be to think this will be the year that the Cougars break through against the Huskies, I'm betting we will see more of the same. In the last 5 meetings (starting with the most recent) Washington has won 41-14, 45-17, 45-10, 31-13 and 27-17. Pretty amazing that not once has Washington State scored at least 20 points. This Huskies defense is one of the best in the country and I just don't think Minshew and that Cougars offense will be able to score enough to win this game. Bet Washington +3! 

20* N ILLINOIS/W MICHIGAN CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois -5½ -110

My money is on the Huskies to cash in a win and cover against the Broncos in Tuesday's MAC action. I get Northern Illinois has no real incentive here with the MAC West title locked up. Sure they could just decide to not show up and focus everything on the MAC Championship Game next week. I just don't think you want to go into the biggest game of the year off back-to-back losses. I think they could out in the 1st half and try to put this game away and with how good they are defensively and how bad Western Michigan is defensively, they could be up 20+ by halftime. Bet Northern Illinois -5.5! 

20* IOWA/ILLINOIS BIG TEN GAME OF THE YEAR on Iowa -14 -107

My money is on the Hawkeyes to easily cover here as a two touchdown favorite against the Fighting Illini. Iowa comes into this game having lost 3 straight to fall to 6-4 and completely out of the Big Ten race after that 6-1 start. The most recent game was a ugly 14-10 loss at home to Northwestern as a 11.5-point favorite. After that game no-one wants anything to do with Hawkeyes, but this is the ideal bounce back spot for this team, as there's a big difference from 8-4 and 6-6 or 7-5 when bowl selection comes. Keep in mind Iowa could easily be undefeated right now, as all their losses have come in the finale minutes of the 4th quarter. Illinois is making progress, but they just don't have the offensive fire-power against a defense like this to keep this game close. Illini have allowed 30+ in 5 straight, giving up 45 or more in 4 of those. Bet Iowa -14! 

20* BOISE ST/N MEXICO MWC PLAY OF THE MONTH on New Mexico +21 -109

My money is on the Loboes to keep this thing close enough to cover. I fully expect Boise State to win the game, as they need a victory to keep their hopes alive of playing in the MWC Championship Game. However, coming off that big win over Fresno State and basically a playoff game against Utah State on deck (assuming they win), this is the definition of a trap game. Bet New Mexico +21! 

20* BUFFALO/OHIO CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Ohio +1½ -106

20* ULM/S ALABAMA SUN BELT PLAY OF THE MONTH on South Alabama +5½ +110

My money is on the Jaguars as a slim 5.5-point home dog to ULM. South Alabama has had about as tough a start as you could draw up to conference play in the Sun Belt. After winning their conference opener against Texas State they have had to play Appalachian State, Georgia Southern, Troy and Arkansas State. They are just 1-5 SU and 2-4 ATS in their last 6, which is why we are getting value here with them. Look for South Alabama to win this one outright. Bet the Jaguars +5.5! 

20* LOUISVILLE/SYRACUSE ACC PLAY OF THE MONTH on Syracuse -20 -109

My money is on the Orange to cash in an easy win and cover at home against Louisville. Syracuse comes in to this game averaging 43.3 ppg (46.8 ppg at home) and will be facing a Cardinals defense that just allowed 77 to Clemson in their last game and 56 the week before to Wake Forest. They also gave up 66 not that long ago at home to Georgia Tech. They lost all 3 of those by at least 21 points and I could see them losing by a lot more than that, as I think Syracuse is going to be out to get some revenge from the lopsided losses Lamar Jackson handed this Orange team the last two years. Bet Syracuse -20! 

20* KENT ST/BUFFALO CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Kent State +22½ -109

My money is on the Golden Eagles to cash in as a massive 22.5-point underdog against the Bulls. Buffalo is simply way overvalued right now, as they are not only 8-1 SU on the season, but they have gone 7-2 ATS, covering each of their last 4. Kent State is not a team the public will be looking to back, but they have covered 3 of 4 and I believe are catching Buffalo in a great spot. The only thing in the way of the Bulls securing the MAC East title is a win next week at Ohio. Even a loss here and a win over the Bobcats and they are division champs. I'm not saying Buffalo will lose, I just think a less than 100% focused Bulls team will struggle to create the kind of separation needed to cover this big number. Bet Kent State +22.5! 

20* PENN ST/MICHIGAN CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Michigan -10 -110

My money is on Michigan -10 at home against Penn State. The Nittany Lions are off a lucky win over Iowa and a hard fought win at Indiana. This team is fortunate to have not lost 4 straight and I think the number here wouldn't seem so far off if they had. Penn State just doesn't have a ton left to play for, as they came into this season with some lofty expectations. Michigan has the Big Ten title and playoff spot staring them in the face. Wolverines are off a bye and will be 100% ready to in this one. They have got revenge in their last two against Wisconsin and Michigan State in blowout fashion and will do the same here. Bet Michigan -10! 

20* OHIO/W MICH MAC GAME OF THE MONTH on Ohio +2½ -110

My money is on the Bobcats to cash in a win on the road over Western Michigan. The Broncos are coming off a 51-24 loss at home to Toledo and in the process lost their starting quarterback. I just don't see them being able to compete without Wassink. Ohio has won 4 of their last 5 with the only loss by 3-points at N. Illinois. They have rushed for over 800 yards in their last 2 games and Western Michigan is giving up 4.7 yards/carry. Bet the Bobcats +2.5! 

20* BALL ST/TOLEDO CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Ball State +18½ -105

My money is on the Cardinals to keep it close enough to cover the big spread on the road against the Rockets. I just think we are getting a great price here on Ball State, as the books have completely over-adjusted this line with the Cardinals losing starting quarterback Riley Neal. I look for Ball State to come out with a chip on their shoulder and catch Toledo potentially looking past this game off the big win against Western Michigan and an even bigger game on deck at Northern Illinois. Cardinals have covered 13 of their last 17 road games after failing to cover 3 of their previous 4. Bet Ball State +18.5! 

20* WYOMING/COLO ST MWC GAME OF THE MONTH on Wyoming +2½ -110

My money is on Wyoming to cash in the win and cover on the road against the Rams. Wyoming has had a tough time adjusting to life without Josh Allen at quarterback, as they are just 2-6 to start the year. The offense has really been the problem, as the defense has played way better than you would expect for a team with just 2 wins at this point in the season. I think Colorado State is a team they can move the ball against, as they are giving up 37.7 ppg and 448 ypg. At the same time, I think the Cowboys defense can keep the Rams offense in check. Bet Wyoming +2.5! 

20* GA TECH/VA TECH CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Virginia Tech -3 -115

My money is on the Hokies as a small 3-point home favorite agains the Yellow Jackets. I love the price here with Virginia Tech at home off a bye and needing to play well after not looking great in their last two. They should have lost at UNC last time out, but stole the game late, which I think could do wonders for this team and getting back their confidence after that ugly loss to Notre Dame. Getting extra time to prepare for the triple-option is huge and no question the Hokies want this one after losing the last two in the series. Bet Virginia Tech -3! 

20* TROY/S ALABAMA SUN BELT PLAY OF THE MONTH on Troy -12½ -109

My money is on the Trojans to cash in a win and cover on the road against the Jaguars. Troy is coming off an ugly loss at Liberty as a 10.5-point favorite and are in a prime bounce back spot against a bad South Alabama team. The Jaguars are just 2-5 and are not a great offensive team (25.7 ppg) and have really struggled on the defensive side of the ball (39.3 ppg). South Alabama is giving up 5 yards/carry against the run and 8.7 yards/completion against the pass. Look for Troy to do whatever they want offensively and cruise to an easy road victory. Bet the Trojans -12.5! 

25* MISS ST/LSU SEC GAME OF THE YEAR on Mississippi State +6½ -105

 My money is on Mississippi State to cover and maybe pull off a massive upset on the road against LSU. Everyone is buying into the Tigers after they laid it on Georgia 36-16 at home. No denying Orgeron knows how to get this team to play hard, but I have to wonder if they won't be running on empty after laying it all on the line the last two weeks against Florida and Georgia. Making matters worse, they will be up against a fresh Mississippi State team that is coming off a bye. The Bulldogs defense is legit and they have the defensive line to completely disrupt this LSU offense. I think Nick Fitzgerald and his mobility will be enough for Mississippi State to pull off the upset. Bet the Bulldogs +6.5

20* USF/TULSA AAC GAME OF THE MONTH on South Florida -7 +101

My money is on the Bulls to cash in the win and cover on the road against the Golden Hurricane. Tulsa is better than their 1-4 record would lead you to believe, but they are getting way to much respect here against a good USF team that is going to be highly motivated to deliver a signature performance in their real chance to showcase their talents on a big stage. Tulsa has done a great job of keeping games closer than they should, but more times than not they are digging themselves big holes. This Golden Hurricane offense also can't be trusted, as they have a 16 turnovers in 5 games. I also think Tulsa will struggle with the speed and athleticism of this Bulls team. USF offense should also score at will, as they are averaging 212.4 rushing yards/game and will be up against ta Golden Hurricane defense that ranks 110th agains the run, giving up 207.4 ypg. Bet USF -7! 

20* APP ST/ARK ST NCAAF SHARP TOP PLAY on Arkansas State +10 -109

My money is on the Red Wolves to cover as a double-digit home dog against the Mountaineers in Tuesday's early Sun Belt action. I'm not saying Appalachian State shouldn't be favored to win this game, but no way should they be this big of a road favorite against a team as talented as Arkansas State. Sure the Mountaineers played great in their near upset of Penn State in Week 1, but that's really the only game they have been tested, as their last 3 have all been against inferior opponents. The Red Wolves have a legit quarterback in Justice Hansen and that's a big plus for them keeping it close and maybe even pulling off the upset. Keep in mind the dog has won each of the two previous meetings in this series and both times they were getting double-digit points. Bet Arkansas State +10! 

20* GA TECH/LOUISVILLE ACC GAME OF THE MONTH on Georgia Tech -3 -115

My money is on the Yellow Jackets to cash in a win and cover on the road against the Cardinals. Life without Lamar Jackson has proven to be a difficult thing to overcome for Louisville. The Cardinals had high hopes for sophomore Juwann Pass, but so far it's bee a real struggle. Pass is completing just 51.7% of his attempts and has just 4 TD passes to 7 interceptions. He's also been a complete non-factor on the ground with a -6 rushing yards on 29 attempts. Georgia Tech also looks to be down, but I just trust that triple-option a lot more, especially with Louisville only getting  5 days to prepare for it. Bet the Yellow Jackets -3! 

25* UCLA/COLORADO PAC-12 GAME OF THE YEAR on UCLA +10½ -110

My money is on the Bruins to cover the spread on the road against Colorado Friday night. I just think now is the perfect buy-low spot for UCLA, who has started out the Chip Kelly era 0-3. It's not a huge surprise to see this team struggle, as Kelly just didn't have a lot to work with and the schedule was brutal to start. This is a game they not only can keep close, but win outright. Kelly has had an extra week to make the adjustments needed to get this team on the right track and he was 8-2 off a bye with Oregon. Colorado also had last week off, but have lost 5 of 6 off a bye under MacIntyre. I also don't think this Buffaloes team is as good as their 3-0 record would lead you to believe. Bet UCLA +10.5! 

20* TCU/TEXAS BIG 12 GAME OF THE MONTH on Texas +4 -115

My money is on the Longhorns as a home dog against TCU. A lot of people wrote off Texas after that opening week loss to Maryland and then that ugly win over Tulsa. They got some respect back after their big win over USC last week, but TCU has looked even better. The Horned Frogs just went toe-to-toe against an elite Ohio State team on a neutral field. It's hard to explain why Texas didn't play up to their potential those first couple games, but they had a similar start last year and rebounded nicely. I also think this a tough spot for the Horned Frogs off that loss to the Buckeyes. Bet the Longhorns +4! 

20* GROUP OF 5 NCAAF SHARP PLAY OF THE MONTH on Florida Atlantic +14 -110

My money is on Lane Kiffin and the Owls as a two-touchdown dog against the Knights. UCF has started out 2-0 and people are starting to think the loss of Scott Frost isn't that big of a deal. I'm not buying that at all. The Knights have beat an awful UConn team and a FCS foe. They didn't get to play last week and because of the Hurricane that hit the east coast. Some might think that's a plus, but I don't think it helps them at all. FAU got rolled in their opener against Oklahoma. A game a lot of people thought the Owls were going to be competitive in, but turns out the Sooners are better than we thought after losing Mayfield. FAU is going to do whatever it takes to win here. Bet the Owls +14! 

20* POWER 5 NON-CONF GAME OF THE MONTH on Kansas -3 -105

My money is on the Jayhawks to knock off the Scarlet Knights at home and cover the small field goal spread. Kansas snapped a ridiculous 46-game road losing streak with a 31-7 win at Central Michigan last Saturday. I think the perception here is that the Jayhawks have been celebrating all week and won't be ready for this game. I'm not buying it. In fact, I think it's Rutgers that will have the harder time bouncing back from their 52-3 embarrassment against a physical Ohio State team. The Scarlet Knights are just 5-16 ATS in their last 21 after giving up 40+ points. Bet Kansas -3! 

20* FRIDAY NIGHT NCAAF SHARP TOP PLAY  on Georgia State +28 -110

My money is on Georgia State to cash in a cover against the Tigers on Friday. No question Memphis is the better team in this one, but they are laying way too many points against a Panthers team that can put up points. I also think we could see the Tigers come out a little flat off that ugly collapse in a 1-point loss at Navy this past Saturday. Georgia State was a lot more competitive against NC State than the 41-7 final would lead you to believe. Look for them to hang around and keep this within the number. Bet the Panthers +28! 

20* NCAAF LATE NIGHT GAME OF THE MONTH on Rice +17½ -109

My money is on the Owls to cover the 17.5-point spread against the Rainbow Warriors. Hawaii is getting all kinds of love after pulling off two upsets as double-digit dogs against Colorado State and Navy in their first two games and it has them way overvalued against a Rice team that really played well against Houston. There's a big difference from being a big dog to laying 3 scores and I think we could see an overconfident Hawaii team struggle to just win the game outright. Bet Rice +17.5! 

20* VA TECH/FLORIDA ST CFB VEGAS SHARP TOP PLAY on Virginia Tech +7½ -110

My money is on the Hokies to cover this spread on the road against the Seminoles. While FSU should be improved over what they put out on the field a year ago, I think they are getting way too much love from the books in this one. Virginia Tech is a program that is back on the rise under head coach Justin Fuente and while the Hokies have continuity on their staff, Florida State is playing their first game under new head coach Willie Taggart. I think there's a lot of question marks with the Seminoles and I just don't see them pulling away and winning here by more than a touchdown and wouldn't be shocked at all if Va Tech won this game outright. Give me the Hokies +7.5! 

20* LSU/MIAMI CFB VEGAS SHARP TOP PLAY  on LSU +3½ -110

My money is on LSU to cover the 3.5-point spread against Miami. I think a lot of people are sleeping on this LSU team because they only have 10 starters back, but the Tigers recruit at such a high level that they simply reload with top tier talent. At the same time, I think the Hurricanes are overrated. Miami had that big win over Notre Dame at home, but lost their last 3 and were very fortunate in a number of other games. This team relied way too much on turnovers and while they were great at forcing them, that's not something that typically carries over from one season to the next. I think this is much more evenly matched game than people think and could see LSU running away with this one. Bet the Tigers +3.5! 

25* PURDUE/NORTHWESTERN BIG TEN GAME OF THE MONTH on Northwestern +2½ -110

My money is on Northwestern to cash in a win and cover on the road against the Boilermakers. I'm not sure what the books are thinking in this one. Northwestern has 14 starters back from a team that closed out the 2017 season with 8 straight wins, which included an easy 23-13 win at home against Purdue. Starting QB, Clayton Thorson is listed as questionable, but is expected to play and the Wildcats offense should have their way with an inexperienced Purdue defense that returns just 4 starters and has to replace 9 of their top 12 tacklers. Keep in mind it was the Boilermaker's defense, not their offense that led to the big turnaround in 2017. Bet Northwestern +2.5!
