12-02-17 | Ohio State -3.5 v. Wisconsin | Top | 27-21 | Win | 100 | 9 h 53 m | Show |
OSU vs Wisconsin - these two teams meet again in the Big 10 Championship. A few years back Cardell Jones took over at QB for the Buckeyes and blew out the Badgers. Barrett is banged up a bit but he should be ok and if not OSU has enough weapons to take care of a highly overrated Wisconsin team. Wisconsin doesn’t have the offense to stay with OSU.This game opened with OSU a 5-point choice and due to Barrett’s uncertainty the line has dropped down to 4-points. OSU usually attracts most of the money but the bettors have loaded up on Wisconsin. This game won’t be a blowout but OSU gets a win and cover and the Big Ten Championship. Play on Ohio State. |

Michigan State at Ohio State – Michigan State comes to Columbus with a 7-2 record and fresh off an upset win over Penn State. Meanwhile the Buckeyes saw their playoff hopes gone with a 55-24 drubbing at Iowa. That was the most embarrassing loss in Urban Meyer’s career at Ohio State. Both of these teams are 7-2 and after Ohio State’s awful performance last week you would think that the line would be about a touchdown in this game. No, Ohio State is a 17-point favorite. All of the squares have jumped of the Ohio State bandwagon and jumped on the Spartans getting this boatload of points. Over 80% of the bets are on Michigan State. This game has blowout written all over it as Meyer bounces back strong and blows out the Spartans. Play on Ohio State. |

ND does enter this contest with big time revenge as they were crushed by USC last year 45-27. This game opened with the Irish as a 3.5-point favorite and they’ve attracted most of the money. However, the line has dropped down to a field goal. We look for Sam Darnold to have a big game today and the Trojans winning this game by a touchdown. Our non-conference GOY is on USC. |

Colorado at Oregon State – the Buffs started off hot winning their first three games. However, the wheels have come off since as they are riding a 3-game losing streak. Oregon State has been pretty bad all season winning only once. This is one of those ugly picks but we like Oregon State to keep it relatively close. Colorado opened as a 12-point choice and despite attracting most of the money the line has dropped down to 10-points. Take Oregon State. |
|||||||
10-14-17 | Oklahoma -9 v. Texas | 29-24 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 11 m | Show | |

10-07-17 | Stanford -4 v. Utah | 23-20 | Loss | -110 | 35 h 13 m | Show | |
Stanford at Utah - the Cardinal have been hot and cold this season losing 2 of their first 3 games than bouncing back last week to beat Arizona State 34-24. They have their rushing game rolling putting up 328 and 405 yards the last two weeks. Utah is 4-0 but they’ve played a very weak schedule. Last week they went to Arizona and won 30-24 covering as 4.5-point favorites. In that contest Arizona was very kind as they turned the football over 5 times. Stanford won’t be as generous today. Stanford opened as a 4.5-point road favorite over the undefeated Utes. The squares have jumped all over the home dog as Utah has attracted three fourths of the bets. However, the line hasn’t dropped. We love betting against the public and teams that are perfect both SU and ATS. We’re laying the points. Play on Stanford. |
|||||||
10-07-17 | Wisconsin v. Nebraska +11 | 38-17 | Loss | -110 | 33 h 9 m | Show | |
Wisconsin at Nebraska – this game was supposed to be a big time Saturday Night matchup. Wisconsin has done their part winning all four of their games. However, Nebraska stumbles into this game with a suspect 3-2 record. Nebraska fired their AD and coach Riley is on the hot seat. This is one of those classic games where the beaten down home dog and rises to the occasion and despite Nebraska being so far on the season we see a great effort against their arch rival Badgers. The line opened with Wisconsin a 13.5-point favorite and despite them grabbing the majority of the money the line has dropped down to a 10.5 point number. We’re taking the points. You can still find them at +11 at a few books. Play on Nebraska. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Clemson -7 v. Virginia Tech | 31-17 | Win | 100 | 33 h 26 m | Show | |
Clemson at Virginia Tech – everyone in Clemson was worried about new QB Kelly Bryant replacing Watson. He’s been fine. However, what everyone overlooked was the Clemson defense which is ranked third in the country and arguably the best in the country. Despite the brutal schedule Clemson is undefeated and passed a tough road test 2 weeks back winning at Louisville 47-21. Virginia Tech is undefeated at 4-0 but their schedule has been a joke. The toughest test was in their opener when they beat a so-so W. VA team 31-24 despite allowing nearly 600 yards. The betting public, who usually jumps on Clemson has abandoned ship and has jumped on VA Tech. However, the smart money is on Clemson taking theTigers from a 5-5 point favorite to a 7-point choice. Another factoring keeping the line down is the fact that VA Tech played Clemson tough in the ACC Championship game last year losing 42-35. However, Clemson was looking past that game to the Bowl Championship. The last time Clemson visited Blacksburg was in 2011 and Dabo and his troops won 23-3. The Clemson defense will be the difference. Clemson scores a double digit win. Play on Clemson. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Iowa v. Michigan State -3 | 10-17 | Win | 100 | 29 h 27 m | Show | |
Iowa at Michigan State – the Hawkeyes are in a tough spot this week having to go to Michigan State after losing on the last play of the game at home to Penn State. How Iowa kept this game close is a mystery as they were outgained 579 yards to 273 yards. Meanwhile, Michigan State comes off a tough home loss to their arch rival ND 38-18. The score should have been much closer as MSU won the stats 496 yards to 355 yards. MSU had a -3 turnover ratio that cost them the game. The squares are all over Iowa as they almost beat Penn State and MSU is off that loss to ND. However, the line has risen to 3.5-points from the opening at 2.5-points. We like Michigan State to score a double digit win in a big bounce back win. Play on Michigan State. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | North Carolina +9.5 v. Georgia Tech | 7-33 | Loss | -105 | 25 h 10 m | Show | |
NC at Georgia Teach – NC has been a mess this year posting a 1-3 record. The first 2 losses were competitive games versus California and Louisville. Last week not so as they lost as a home favorite to Duke 271-7. Georgia Tech opened with a 1-point loss to Tennessee but has bounced back with 2 straight wins and are now 3-0 ATS on the year. However, that ATS streak gets snapped today as they are lofty 9.5-point favorites. Big overlay as NC keeps this one close. The last 2 years NC has won outright. Play on NC. |
|||||||
09-29-17 | Miami-FL -6.5 v. Duke | 31-6 | Win | 100 | 55 h 46 m | Show | |
Miami Florida at Duke – this is a rare ACC Friday Night matchup, but the good news is that both teams are undefeated. Miami comes in at 2-0 winning last week at home over Toledo 52-30. Duke has a much more impressive resume at 4-0 with wins over Northwestern, Baylor, and last week at NC. The Cane’s opened in this game as a 4.5-point favorite but the line is up to 6.5-points. This move up is contrary to the money as the Blue Devils have attracted the majority of the money. The smart money is on Miami and so is ours. Last year Miami scored a 19 point win and this year we see another double digit Cane’s victory. Play on Miami. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Florida v. Kentucky +3 | 28-27 | Win | 100 | 30 h 11 m | Show | |
Florida at Kentucky – it’s pretty well documented that Florida has owned KY winning 30 straight times. Well, all streaks must come to an end! Florida was run over by a so-so Michigan team in their opener then escaped via a Hail Mary win last week at home versus Tennessee. A game that they were totally outplayed. For Kentucky they come in at 3-0 highlighted by an impressive road win last week at South Carolina holding the Gamecocks to 13 points. This Kentucky defense is for real allowing only 16 points per game and are impossible to run on allowing only 62 yards rushing. They should have no trouble stopping a very weak Florida offense. This line opened with Florida a 2.5-point favorite and due to their impressive record over KY the public has jumped all over the Gators. However, the line has dropped down to Florida only a 1.5-point favorite. KY snaps the losing streak and goes to 4-0 on the season beating Florida by a touchdown. Play on KY. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Arkansas +3 v. Texas A&M | 43-50 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 28 m | Show | |
Arkansas at Texas A&M – the Razorbacks offense didn’t show up last week as they lost at home to TCU 28-7. They put up only 267 yards of offense but that was against a rugged TCU defense. They shouldn’t have any trouble posting some good numbers against a weak A&M defense. Last week the Aggies scored a 45-21 win over LA Lafayette but that was aided by 5 Lafayette turnovers. The last two years A&M has won and covered in the matchup. However, this year Arkansas turns the tables. A&M opened as a 3-point neutral site favorite but despite attracting the majority of the money the line has dropped down to 2.5-points. We’re taking the points with an outright Arkansas win. Play on Arkansas. |
|||||||
09-22-17 | Virginia +13 v. Boise State | 42-23 | Win | 100 | 7 h 46 m | Show | |
Virginia at Boise State – the Cavs go out on the road to take on the Broncos at Albertson Stadium. The last time these two teams met was in the 2015 season at Virginia it wasn’t much of a game with Boise winning 56-14. Both teams enter at 2-1 and both come off wins. The line in this game opened with Boise as a 13-point choice and it hasn’t move very much. The money is almost dead even. This is rare for a Boise game on the blue carpet as most times the books can’t find anyone to play against them at home. Over the last two seasons Boise bettors are broke with a 9-16 ATS record. We’re taking the points as we expect Virginia to keep this one close. Play on Virginia. |
|||||||
09-16-17 | Purdue v. Missouri -7 | 35-3 | Loss | -115 | 29 h 48 m | Show | |
Purdue at Missouri – after losing in week one to Louisville the Boilers rebounded with a 44-21 win over Ohio U. After failing to run the football against Louisville, Purdue got their ground game working last week rushing for 263 yards. For Missouri they’re looking to rebound off a terrible home loss last week to S. Carolina 31-13 as a 2.5-point home favorite. They actually won the stats in that game but lost the turnover battle 3-0. The line in this contest opened with Missouri a touchdown favorite and it went as high as 8-points but has settled in at 7.5-points. However, the books can’t find anyone to play on Missouri as Purdue as grabbed over 80% of the money. The public is getting fooled by Purdue’s first game against Louisville when they were competitive. However, the Tigers were embarrassed last week and we think we’ll get their offense rolling and if they hold on to the football they’ll win this game by 17 points. Lay the points. Play on Missouri. |
|||||||
09-16-17 | UCLA v. Memphis +3.5 | 45-48 | Win | 100 | 25 h 49 m | Show | |
UCLA at Memphis – the high profile UCLA Bruins take their 2-0 record on the road to play their first road game against Memphis. Two weeks back UCLA made the comeback of the year to stun Texas A&M 45-44. Last week they rolled Hawaii 56-23. Memphis has played only once, two weeks back they beat LA Monroe. Last week their game against UCF was cancelled. UCLA opened as a 4.5-point road favorite and the game has dipped as low as 2-points. The line as settled in with UCLA a 3-point favorite. However, everyone is riding the Bruins. This is a tough spot for UCLA having to travel east and playing a noon game. The Bruins will be sleep walking as they’ll still be on West Coast time. Memphis is a good team and they’ll get the win over a UCLA team that has an awful defense. Play on Memphis. |
|||||||
09-15-17 | Illinois v. South Florida -17 | 23-47 | Win | 100 | 48 h 48 m | Show | |
Illinois at S. Florida – both teams come into this contest at 2-0. Illinois has struggled offensively against two bad teams averaging only 22 points per contest. Their offense isn’t strong enough to stay close to this S. Florida squad. The Bulls have a ton of weapons and they haven’t been running on all cylinders yet, but they’ll get rolling tonight. This game opened with S. Florida a 16.5-point favorite and the line has moved up to 17.5-points. The Big 10 Illini are getting no respect from the line makers but the public is backing them as they garnered over 60% of the action. We have S. Florida scoring a 24 point win. Play on S. Florida. |
|||||||
09-09-17 | Stanford v. USC -5.5 | 24-42 | Win | 100 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
Stanford at USC – Stanford has scored three ATS wins over USC in their last three meetings. Last year it wasn’t much of a game as they beat USC at home 27-10. USC didn’t look very good in their opener under big time QB Sam Darnold squeaking by W. Michigan. USC opened this game as a 5.5-point favorite and the line hasn’t moved. However, all of the money is on the underdog Cardinal. We’re not getting trapped. Lay the points with USC. |
|||||||
09-09-17 | Oklahoma v. Ohio State -7 | 31-16 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 49 m | Show | |
Oklahoma at Ohio State – big rematch tonight in Columbus with the Bucks hosting the Sooners. Last year the Buckeyes went to Norman and spanked the Sooners 45-24. The Buckeyes opened as a 5.5-point choice and the line is all the way up to 7.5-points. The money is favoring the Sooners but the sharp players are laying the points. Our money is on Ohio State. |
|||||||
09-09-17 | Auburn +5.5 v. Clemson | 6-14 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 19 m | Show | |
Auburn at Clemson – these two teams tangled in the opener last year and Clemson scored a 19-13 win. Clemson lost Watson but they looked good last week beating up Kent State. However, it’s going to be much tougher this week against an Auburn team that returns 16 starters. Clemson opened as a 6-point favorite and despite attracting a good percentage of the bets the line has dropped down to 5-points at most books. We look for a very close game and wouldn’t be surprised with a SU Auburn win. |
|||||||
09-02-17 | Florida State v. Alabama -7 | 7-24 | Win | 100 | 53 h 50 m | Show | |
Alabama vs. Florida State – this game sets up as a possible National Championship matchup as many have these two teams making the playoffs. FSU was predicted to make the playoffs last year but those hopes faded early when they lost two of their first five games. Saban is still smarting from losing the title last year to Clemson. In the last nine years Saban has opened up the season with a perfect 9-0 SU record and a near perfect 8-1 ATS mark. Alabama is only a 7-point favorite and many believe they lost too many players from last season. We don’t. FSU is over rated every year and once again they’ll stumble early. Play on Bama. |

Michigan started the 2016 season with 9 straight wins but lost 3 of their last 4 games. This game will be played at AT&T stadium with the Wolverines a 4-point favorites. The books have the wrong team favored. Florida wins outright. Play on Florida. |

Tom Grassi Bowl Game of the Year Florida State vs Michigan - The Noles and Wolverines matchup in Miami in the Capital One Orange Bowl. Florida State gets to play in their home state but we believe they're overmatched in this contest. The difference in this game is going to be the Michigan Defense. Florida State Likes to run the football but they won't be able to run against this rugged Wolverine defense who allows opponents an average of only 117 yards per game and an average of 3.1 yards per rush. The other big factor is Michigan will have a healthy Wilton Speight at quarterback. Michigan opened as 7-point favorite and it's proved to be a good number as the line hasn't moved. Florida State actually has attracted a little more money than Michigan. We're projected a double digit Michigan win. Play on Michigan Wolverines |
