At 12:00 PM EST on Saturday, we will be playing the Arkansas Razorbacks (395) plus the points versus the Texas A&M Aggies (394). Arkansas (1-1) comes off a bye week with plenty to prove after their 28-7 loss to TCU back on September 9th as a 3-point underdog. The Razorbacks have then bounced back to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games after a straight-up loss — and they have covered the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after a double-digit loss at home. Furthermore, Arkansas has covered the point spread in 6 of their last 7 games after failing to score at least 20 points in their last game. And in their last 4 games coming off a bye week  under head coach Brett Bielema, they have covered the point spread all 4 times. This team will also be playing with revenge on their minds after suffering a 45-24 upset loss to the Aggies last September as a 7-point favorite.

TO BE CONTINUED -- please check back before this game begins for my full written Report before this game starts -- and I also reserve the right to raise the Star Value of this play (while you still get it at the discounted price by buying early). Given the high volume of plays I offer clients, I am providing an initial “abridged version” of the play to get them posted faster to accommodate my Daily, Weekly and Monthly subscribers so they can begin shopping lines. My research is detailed for our plays (which I do complete before endorsing a play) but it does take some time to write the more detailed Reports that clients have grown to count on. Thanks, Frank.

At 10:30 PM EST on Friday, we will be playing the Arizona Wildcats (308) plus the points versus the Utah Utes (307). Arizona (2-1) enters this game with a bit of momentum after rebounding from their loss at home to Houston by crushing UTEP on the road last Friday night by a 63-16 score. Now the Wildcats return home in a critical game for Rich Rodriguez and this Arizona program. Many bettors will be shying away from this Wildcats team that was last in the nation by being outscored by -10 PPG against the point spread last season. Last year’s 3-9 season has put Rodriguez on the proverbial hot seat this year. But remember that under Rodriguez, Arizona had secured wins over Top-Ten teams in four straight seasons before last year. While this undefeated Utes team does not quite find themselves at those lofty heights (although they are ranked in the Top-25), this is a game that the Wildcats absolutely need to win help reverse the negative slide this team has been in since going 10-4 in 2014. Fourteen starters returned this season led by junior quarterback Brian Dawkins. Arizona did outgain the Miners by 292 net yards last week — and they have covered the point spread in 3 of their last 4 games after outgaining their last opponent by at least 175 yards. The Wildcats have also covered the point spread in 10 of their last 12 games played on a Friday night.

Utah (3-0) has failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 gamed played on a Friday night. The Utes enter this game coming off a 54-16 win over San Jose State last week. That game when way Over the 59.5 point Total — but Utah has failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 13 games after playing a game that finished Over the Total. Utah returned only nine starters from last year’s team that finished 10-3 overall after a win over Indiana in the Foster Farmer’s Bowl. But the defense may be hampered with their leader in the defensive backfield in Chase Hansen being listed as questionable with an undisclosed injury. The Utes have struggled in Pac-12 play where they are just 25-29 overall in the last six seasons. Utah snapped a four-game losing streak to Arizona last year with a 36-23 victory — but they have still failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 meetings with the Wildcats. Furthermore, the underdog has covered the point spread in 5 of the last 7 meetings between these two teams. And in their last 24 road games when favored in the 3.5 to 7 point range, Utah has failed to cover the point spread in 15 of these contests. Together, these team trends produce our specific 53-21 ATS combined angle for this situation. Lastly, the Utes fall into an empirical “play-against” angle that has been 72% effective over the last five seasons. Favorites in the 3.5 to 10 point range coming off a win by at least 17 points now facing a team that scored at least 42 points have then failed to cover the point spread in 55 of the last 76 situations where these conditions applied. 25* CFB Friday Night Game of the Month with the Arizona Wildcats (308) plus the points versus the Utah Utes (307). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:00 PM EST on Friday, we will be playing the Virginia Cavaliers (305) plus the points versus the Boise State Broncos (306). Boise State (2-1) will be looking to build off their 28-14 win over New Mexico last Thursday as a 16-point favorite. The Broncos have then failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 11 games after a straight-up win — and they have failed to cover the point spread in 5 of their last 6 games after a point spread loss. And while the Boise State offense managed only 264 yards of offense in that contest, they have then failed to cover the point spread in 12 of their last 17 games after failing to generate at least 275 yards of offense. Junior quarterback Brett Rypien did not play last week as he was going through the concussion protocol — he has been upgraded to being listed as probable for this contest. But it is unclear what head coach Bryan Horsin will do with his offense when considering that the inconsistent Rypien has no touchdown passes and an interception while Kansas graduate transfer has a 5:1 touchdown to interception ratio while adding 179 rushing yards on the ground. The Broncos have failed to cover the point spread in 7 of their last 9 games against teams with a winning record. And in their last 11 games at home, Boise State has failed to cover the point spread in 10 of these games.

Virginia (2-1) looks to build off their 38-18 win over UConn last Saturday as a 10.5-point favorite. The Cavaliers are then 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games after a point spread win. The Virginia defense did allow 6.45 Yards-Per-Play against the Huskies last week — but they have then covered the point spread in 9 of their last 13 games after allowing at least 6.25 YPP in their last game. This is a benchmark game for head coach Bronco Mendenhall who took over this team the season after the Cavaliers were destroyed by a 56-14 score on their home field back on September 25th. Two years later, Mendenhall is looking to oversee his team taking a significant leap this season with thirteen starters back from last year’s 2-10 team. Remember, Virginia had a brutal schedule last year where they were underdogs in eleven of those twelve games — and three blown 4th quarter leads led to three net close losses in games decided by one scoring possession. The new schemes that Mendenhall installed last season are beginning to reap dividends now. Lastly, the Cavaliers have covered the point spread in 7 of their last 10 road games as an underdog — and they have covered the point spread in 8 of their last 13 road games getting 10.5 to 14 points. 10* CFB Virginia-Boise State ESPN2 Special with the Virginia Cavaliers (305) plus the points versus the Boise State Broncos (306). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:25 PM EST on Sunday, we will be playing the San Francisco 49ers (302) plus the points versus the Los Angeles Rams (301). San Francisco (0-2) looks for their first victory of the season tonight after their tough 12-9 loss on the road in Seattle on Sunday as a 13.5-point favorite. The 49ers have now covered the point spread in 4 straight games against fellow NFC West opponents. Additionally, San Francisco typically plays this Rams’ franchise tough. Not only have they covered the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games against “Los Angeles”, but they have also covered then point spread in 11 of their last 16 games at home against the Rams. Furthermore, the underdog has covered the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games in this series.

Los Angeles (1-1) looks to bounce-back from a 27-20 loss at home to Washington last week as a 3-point favorite. The Rams are then 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games after a point spread loss — and they have failed to cover the point spread in 6 straight games after a straight-up loss. Additionally, while the LA defense allowed 385 yards in that contest, they have then failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 7 games after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest. Now the Rams go on the road where they have failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games on the road — and they are just 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 road games against teams with a losing record at home. Furthermore, Los Angeles is a dismal 0-8-1 ATS in their last 9 games against fellow NFC opponents. Lastly, in their last 8 games played on Thursday Night Football, the Rams have failed to cover the point spread in 6 of these games. 10* NFL LA Rams-San Francisco NFL Network Special with the San Francisco 49ers (302) plus the points versus the Los Angeles Rams (301). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 7:30 PM EST on Thursday, we will be playing the Temple Owls (303) plus the points versus the South Florida Bulls (304). Temple (2-1) enters this early important American Athletic Conference contest coming off a 29-21 win over UMass as a 14.5-point favorite last Friday. The Owls have covered the point spread in 9 of their last 11 games after a straight-up win. Temple has also covered the point spread in 25 of their last 33 games against AAC opponents. The Owls should keep this game close after upsetting the Bulls last season by a 46-30 score as a 6-point underdog last October 21st. The key to success in that game was running the ball 51 times for 319 yards against this suspect South Florida defense. Temple still has running back Ryquelll Armstead who exploded for 210 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries in that upset victory last year. The Owls have covered the point spread in 6 of their last 7 games against teams with a winning record. Temple has also covered the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games on the road — and they have covered the point spread in 4 of their last 5 road games against teams with a winning record at home.

South Florida (3-0) enters its game feeling very good about themselves after demolishing head coach Lovie Smith and his Illinois Fighting Illini on national television last Friday by a 47-23 score. But the Bulls have then failed to cover the point spread in 4 straight games after scoring at least 40 points in their last game. This team has also failed to cover the point spread in 10 of their last 12 games played on a Thursday night — and I hate that this team is playing their second straight game on a short week. South Florida did show some vulnerabilities on defense as they allowed 287 passing yards in that game — and they have then failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games after allowing at least 280 passing yards in their last game. The Bulls churned out 376 rushing yards against the Illini as well — and they have then failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after rushing for at least 200 yards in their last game. And in their last 6 games at home as a favorite laying 17.5 to 21 points, South Florida has failed to cover the point spread in 5 of these games. Together, these team trends produce our specific 79-20 ATS combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Temple-South Florida ESPN Special with the Temple Owls (303) plus the points versus the South Florida Bulls (304). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM EST on Monday, we will be playing the New York Giants (290) minus the points versus the Detroit Lions (289). New York (0-1) will be playing with a sense of desperation tonight having lost their opening game of the season in a 19-3 loss in Dallas as a 6-point underdog. Less than 13% of the teams that start the season with two losses have gotten off the mat to make the playoffs — so this is an important contest for the Giants that entered that contest with the Cowboys with deep playoff aspirations. New York has bounced-back to go 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games after a straight-up loss — and they are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games after a point spread setback. Additionally, while the Giants managed only 233 yards of offense last week, they have then covered the point spread in 4 straight games after failing to generate at least 250 yards in their last contest. Dallas won the yardage battle in that Sunday Night by a 159 net yards. But not has New York covered the point spread in 7 of their last 8 games after being outgained by at least 100 yards in their last contest but they have also failed to cover the point spread in 4 straight games after being outgained by at least 150 yards. The Giants will likely have the services of Odell Beckham tonight as he has been upgraded to probable despite his leg injury. His presence on the field not only helps Eli Manning by giving him his favorite target but it also will likely compel defenses to provide only single coverage against their new wide receiver Brandon Marshall. New York returns home where they have covered the point spread in 5 of their last 6 games. And in their last 8 games against teams with a winning record, the Giants are 5-2-1 ATS.

Detroit (1-0) opened their season at home with a 35-23 victory over the Cardinals last Sunday as a 2.5-point underdog. The Lions benefited from a -3 net turnover in that game with their defense forcing four turnovers. But Detroit has then failed to cover the point spread in 3 straight games after enjoying at least a +3 met turnover margin. The Lions are also a rough 5-17-1 ATS in their last 23 games after scoring at least 30 points in their last game. Balance on offense remains a concern for this team as they threw 41 passes in that contest while rushing the ball just 27 times despite winning by double-digits. Moving forward, Detroit has failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games when going on the road. Furthermore, the Lions have failed to cover the point spread in 5 of their last 6 games against NFC opponents. And in their last 7 games in the month of September, Detroit has failed to cover the point spread 5 times. Lastly, this Lions team is a pathetic 3-12-1 ATS in their last 16 games in the second week of the season. 25* NFL Monday Night Football Game of the Month with the New York Giants (290) minus the points versus the Detroit Lions (289). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM EST on Sunday, we will be playing the Atlanta Falcons (208) minus the points versus the Green Bay Packers (207). Atlanta (1-0) returns home to host a rematch with the Green Bay Packers who they last crushed when these two teams met by a 44-21 score in the NFC Conference Championships last January. The Falcons will also be playing their first game in the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium so except an electric atmosphere for this nationally televised game. Atlanta was listless last week in their 23-17 win on the road in Chicago as a 6.5-point favorite. But the Falcons have then rebounded to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after a point spread loss. Atlanta has also covered the point spread in 9 of their last 13 games after a straight-up win. Furthermore, while the Falcons offense did generate 372 yards of offense, they have then covered the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. And in their last 7 games in the month of September, Atlanta has covered the point spread 5 times.

At 1:00 PM EST on Sunday, we will be playing the Philadelphia Eagles (271) plus the points versus the Kansas City Chiefs (272). Kansas City (1-0) has been the toast of the NFL over the last ten days after their opening night of the regular season beatdown of the Patriots by a 42-27 score despite being 8-point underdogs. Now the Chiefs return home where they have precarious favorites as they have failed to cover the point spread in 10 of their last 15 games a home fave. Kansas City has also failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 10 home games with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range. Additionally, expect a letdown from the Chiefs’ offensive explosion in that game after they generated 537 yards of offense against the Patriots. KC has failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after scoring at least 30 points in their last game. The Chiefs have also failed to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. And in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record, Kansas City has failed to cover the point spread in 5 of these games. After producing three touchdowns of over 20 yards last week, it is highly unlikely that Alex Smith and company will see similar results today.

At 3:30 PM EST on Saturday, we will be playing the Florida Gators (166) minus the points versus the Tennessee Volunteers (165). Florida (0-1) has had an extra week to bounce-back from their opening game loss to Michigan in AT&T Stadium on September by a 33-17 score. The Gators were 4.5-point underdogs in that game — and they are 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 games after a point spread loss. Florida has also covered the point spread in 20 of their last 28 games for a bye week. This team needs to improve on the offensive side of the football — but facing a stout Wolverines defense did not help. The Gators managed only 11 rushing yards on 27 carries against Michigan — but they are then 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 games after failing to rush for at least 100 yards in their last game. If Florida needed any extra motivation, they will have it with the memory of losing to the Volunteers team last September by a 38-28 score.

At 12:00 PM EST on Saturday, we will be playing the Memphis Tigers (138) minus the points versus the UCLA Bruins (137). UCLA (2-0) has a challenging trip east for this early kickoff on Saturday as the Bruins’ body clocks will think it is 9 AM. The team enters this game coming off a 56-23 win over Hawai’i last Saturday as a 24-point favorite. But UCLA has failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 7 games after a straight-up win — and they have failed to cover the point spread in 9 of their last 10 games after a point spread victory. Additionally, the Bruins have failed to cover the point spread in 7 straight games after a win by at least 20 points. Now this team goes on the road for the first time all season where they have failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games. Furthermore, UCLA has failed to cover the point spread in 6 of their last 7 games against teams outside the Pac-12. Defense is a concern for this team after they allowed the Rainbow Warriors to outgain them last week by surrendering 515 yards of offense. Of course, that defensive effort was after their opening game against Texas A&M where they executed that miracle 4th quarter comeback to steal that game. UCLA is allowing their opponents to average a whopping 331 rushing YPG along with 6.3 Yards-Per-Carry. Road favorites who have allowed at least 5.5 YPA in their last two games have then failed to cover the point spread in 26 of their last 31 games (84%) when these conditions applied.

Memphis (1-0) will have had an extra week to prepare for this game after their Friday night game with Central Florida was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma. The Tigers won their opening game of the season back on August 31st by a 37-29 score. Memphis has covered the point spread in 4 straight games after a bye week. This extra week off should help the Tigers give them some extra oomph for a physical attack against the Bruins who have been accused of being soft on more than one occasion. Memphis returns nine starters on offense including running back Doroland Doroland who has been upgraded to probable for this game.  The senior has been upgraded to probable for this game. The Tigers’ ground game was very impressive against the War Hawks as they gobbled up 319 rushing yards against that defense. Lastly, Memphis is 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 games in the month of September. Together, these team trends produce our specific 54-11-1 ATS combined angle for this situation. 20* CFB UCLA-Memphis ABC-TV Special with the Memphis Tigers (138) minus the points versus the UCLA Bruins (137). Best of luck for us — Frank.
