11-11-23 | USC v. Oregon -14 | 27-36 | Loss | -110 | 151 h 5 m | Show | |
Taking OREGON. This USC team is done. Do we really think the defense shows up here tonight? Of course it doesn't. Jump on the Ducks TT Over here as well. This will be a 45-55 spot for the home team. Like I said last week when we had Washington -3. This USC team is done. They were nearly picked off by Arizona. ND got them. Utah got them. Cal nearly got them. Washington got them. This team has zero heart. You think they show up tonight? Stop. Oregon has won and covered 4 of the last 5 vs the Trojans. 31-56- (20 loss) - 48- 62 points scored. Keep going .. Sure 35-53-47 (this was 2009!) . I am just saying. Ducks are not scared of USC. You put a team out of it's misery when it is flailing, not give them hope. Ducks by 3 TDs. 4* Money Maker OREGON |

11-11-23 | Miami-FL v. Florida State -15 | 20-27 | Loss | -110 | 144 h 4 m | Show | |
Taking FLORIDA STATE. Oh what could have been with this game. Miami beats Texas A&M, gets out to a 4-0 start. You start think, yeah baby, The U is back! Sad Trombone plays with that inexcusable loss to Georgia Tech. Followed up with going on the road and getting pounded by North Carolina. You edge Virginia only to lose the next week to NC State. Rivalry or not, this game is a mismatch. No way the Noles are looking past their in-state rivals. North Alabama on deck. Florida State is superior across the field here. And why wouldn't they want to run it up here for their boosters? 45-3 last year - Miami hit the road and beat Temple 41-7 and lost to NC State 20-6. FSU at home 38-41-39-66-45.. Let's just say 37-13 based on what we have seen out of these clubs all season long. 5* Best Bet FLORIDA STATE |

11-11-23 | Alabama -11 v. Kentucky | 49-21 | Win | 100 | 141 h 35 m | Show | |
Taking ALABAMA. I just grabbed some Bama +700 to win the whole thing here on Tuesday afternoon. These guys just keep getting better as the season rolls on. Offense was the question. It seems to be finding itself. Do we really think they slip here against Kentucky? Now - the Wildcats have played tough here at home. 33-27 losers to the Vols. 38-21 losers to Missouri. Beat Florida here 33-14. So maybe you get a fight for a half. But why do I feel after what we saw in Bama's second half vs Tennessee, and again, 4 more 2nd half touchdowns vs LSU, do they not win this one by 14 or more points? Chattanooga on deck for the Tide - that is the go through the motions game and play not to get hurt spot. 4* Money Maker ALABAMA |

11-11-23 | Michigan -4.5 v. Penn State | 24-15 | Win | 100 | 141 h 35 m | Show | |
Taking MICHIGAN. If this was a night game, Penn State doing a White Out for the student. Yeah. I would be interested in the home dog in this spot. But a noon game. Eh. Not the energy you need to add that kind of edge. Penn State played Ohio State. The best team either has faced. It was a dog fight. Both defenses look to be very good. I do have to go Wolverines here based on the QB play though. I think their offense is better. And even though we haven't seen them vs an elite unit, I have seen enough to think they win this one by 7-10. They will pound PSU with their running, but McCarthy will make them pay with some pass plays. and as great as Allar has been this year 20 TDs 1 INT, -- 18-42 vs Ohio State. That is where I think this game is lost for Penn State. 4* Money Maker MICHIGAN |

11-11-23 | Texas Tech v. Kansas -3.5 | 16-13 | Loss | -110 | 138 h 4 m | Show | |
Taking KANSAS. Wow. 1st time the Jayhawks are favored over Texas Tech since 2008. Kansas 1-9 the last 10 SU. This is just a spot for us to back a really good home team. Jayhawks on a 9-1-1 ATS run at home and 5-0 ATS this year. Tech 1-3 on the road this year. 2-7 ATS road run. Defense giving up loads of yards. Bean effective at the QB spot. The offense has hummed all season. Take out the 14 points at Texas and this group has topped all but 1 other game (28 last week). If you are losing 20-13 at West Virginia and 27-14 at BYU, you know that coming to here you are giving up a 34-40 spot. 4* Money Maker KANSAS JAYHAWKS |

11-10-23 | North Texas v. SMU -14.5 | 21-45 | Win | 100 | 125 h 3 m | Show | |
Taking SMU. Judging by the line move, looking like we have our QB under center tonight. Mustangs should be able to top the 40 mark tonight. North Texas comes in losers of 3 straight. Those 3 teams. All in the Top 4 of the AAC. Want to know who the other team is? Yep SMU. What does North Texas have in the tank after losing by 8,3,7 points? I am guessing not a lot. Road woes also for Mean Green. Lost at FIU 46-39 a win at LT 40-37. Lose Navy 27-24 - Lose Tulane 35-28. Now they face SMU off their worse game in 6 weeks. This team prior to the Rice had given up 36 points in its last 4 games. In the last 4 meetings North Texas hasn't been closer than 22 points (48-10 -- 35-12 -- 65-35 -- 49-27.. NT scored a 46-23 win in 2018.. 2017 54-32 SMU) These teams are still on different playing fields. Lay It 4* Money Maker SMU |

11-09-23 | Panthers v. Bears -1.5 | 13-16 | Win | 100 | 95 h 39 m | Show | |
Taking the BEARS. The fact that this line has moved this much amazes me. I am glad to be on the better number, but is this too much of an overreaction? Young is off a terrible game. The team is bad, I get it. But Chicago is just a win better at 2-7. Short week for both teams. Do we give a little point lean to the home team? Is it that we might get Fields back at QB? That could be the main reason. We know Fields has the wheels to take off, and this Panthers defense can give up yards on the ground. On the road at Miami Detroit and Seattle. Nearly 600 yards allowed. And even if it is Bagent, the kid went for 70 on the ground last week vs a better defense in New Orleans. Chicago should get it done here tonight. I can't see Carolina putting up more than 13. 24-13 Bears. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO BEARS |

11-06-23 | Chargers v. Jets +2 | 27-6 | Loss | -105 | 315 h 0 m | Show | |
Taking the JETS. Do not trust the Chargers on the road. The coach will make a bonehead decision. Jets defense is good. We saw last week, a Jets team that looked brutal. We saw on SNF, a Chargers team that everyone falls in love with. Line keeps going up. I think Jets hang and have a shot at the outright win tonight. 4* Money Maker NY JETS |

11-05-23 | Bills v. Bengals +1.5 | 18-24 | Win | 100 | 275 h 57 m | Show | |
Taking the BENGALS. Another number we have in our favor. Look Ahead Lines is every Sunday night at half-time of the SNF game. Watch it. Or re-listen to the podcast. The line move doesn't shock me because I said this would happen. It doesn't matter. Cincy, and Burrow, are moving in the right direction. This is a team in Buffalo that they have figured out. 27-10 last year. That Bills team was better. Bills lost at New England and on the road to the Jets. This is a tough spot for them. Bengals did exactly what I thought they would do coming off their bye week. Big win in San Fran. No let down spot at all. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI BENGALS |

11-05-23 | Cowboys +3.5 v. Eagles | 23-28 | Loss | -110 | 287 h 13 m | Show | |
Taking the COWBOYS. This Eagles team. 7-1, but can be 4-4. A good team finds a way to win. But now they face a team that beaten them 4 of the last 5. And might have a better defense. Dak is the key. He has good numbers vs Philly. Cowboys special teams has been good. I still think Philly is more banged up then Dallas is. Might be a homer play since I am a fan of the Cowboys. But I am 8-2 with their games this season, 4-1 sides, 4-1 totals. Think I have the pulse of what to expect. 4* Money Maker DALLAS COWBOYS |

11-05-23 | Giants v. Raiders -3 | 6-30 | Win | 100 | 168 h 5 m | Show | |
Taking the RAIDERS. It does not matter who is the QB for the Giants. The OL will leave that poor sap to run for his life. You would think it would be impossible to top they way they lost to Buffalo 2 weeks ago. But man - OT loser vs the Jets. Just wow. Vegas, for as inept as they had been under McDaniels, did play defense. Now though - this is a breath of fresh air. New Coach. New QB. Players happy. I might jump in on the Over here as well. 4* Money Maker LAS VEGAS RAIDERS |

11-04-23 | LSU +4.5 v. Alabama | 28-42 | Loss | -110 | 147 h 53 m | Show | |
Taking LSU. Will grab the points here. I know that the ol' Alabama is done has been said a couple times this year. It is like the Undertaker coming out of the coffin. Lose to Texas. 17-3 at South Florida. Down 7-6 at home vs Ole Miss - 24-10 winner. 26-20 win at A&M. 24-21 vs Arkansas as 19pt faves. Down 20-7 at the half, at home vs Tennessee. 27-0 2nd half. Wow. What can you say or really expect here from Alabama. I say they can't contain the LSU offense. Jayden Daniels is having a great year. 25/3 TD/INT splits. 5 more rushing TDs. This is the kind of guy who has given Bama fits over the years. I will take any points in what should be a back and forth one score game. 4* Money Maker LSU |

11-04-23 | Washington -3 v. USC | 52-42 | Win | 100 | 147 h 52 m | Show | |
Taking WASHINGTON. I will be shocked if this line doesn't come down. Maybe a PK by game day. Now - I put games out very early. Most times, we get the "CLV". Doesn't mean it wins every time. I have heard whispers that Pennix is banged up. I don't care. This USC defense is horrific. Heisman gone. Playoffs gone. PAC 12 Title, pretty much gone. I want to know if USC has any heart - and honestly, I don't think they do. Blowout loss at Notre Dame. Utah loss in a wild one. Nearly a loss at Cal. 49 points to Cal - and Cal has 4 Turn Overs! Geez. No wonder this total is at 75. I can't trust this defense even if Pennix is banged up. I think Calen forces things because of the bad defense. I will excuse the 15-7 win over Arizona State after beating Oregon. And even in the lackluster win last week at Stanford. I can say, well road game at USC next. Maybe the Tree doesn't get their full attention. I cannot see how Washington doesn't move the ball here. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON HUSKIES |

11-04-23 | Purdue v. Michigan -32.5 | 13-41 | Loss | -110 | 147 h 51 m | Show | |
Taking MICHIGAN. How is Purdue scoring? Uh, they aren't. 14-7-14 their last 3 games. Where did that 44 vs Illinois come from? Who knows. I don' think the Boilermakers sniff the end-zone. Michigan offense - I think JJ is a Heisman guy. Not getting a lot of love. This team is that good. Defense has allowed more than 7 points once! ONCE this season. You want to grab 1st half because you think Michigan takes their foot off the gas with Penn State on deck - eh. We saw them run it up late at Michigan State. Why not here at home. Blowout. 4* Money Maker MICHIGAN |

11-04-23 | Kansas v. Iowa State -2.5 | 28-21 | Loss | -110 | 106 h 21 m | Show | |
Taking IOWA STATE. Cyclones had won 7 in a row prior to last years 14-11 clunker loss. And these games weren't even close. 59-7 - 52-22 - 41-31 - 27-3 - 45-0 -31-24 - 38-13. Ok, that 7 point win in 2016 was close! - Look. This is an auto play even tossing prior history out the window. Because, those players are all long gone right - But what isn't long gone. Kansas upsetting Oklahoma at home and acting like it was another basketball team championship. Terrible spot for Kansas vs a team that 30 up in b2b road games and has won 4 of their last 5. 4* Money Maker IOWA STATE |

11-04-23 | California v. Oregon -23 | 19-63 | Win | 100 | 145 h 37 m | Show | |
Taking OREGON. Yes. Big USC game on deck. But it is a home game. And this is a home game. And Cal just took USC to the wire in a 50-49 thriller where they missed a 2pt conversion for the win with a minute left. Kudos for going for it instead of taking the tie and seeing what happens. But what do you have in the tank after that? I am thinking not much. Ducks should cruise much like they did last week in 35-6 cakewalk. Cal lost at Utah 34-14 the week before. 38-10 gets us the cover. 4* Money Maker OREGON DUCKS |

11-04-23 | Oklahoma v. Oklahoma State +6 | 24-27 | Win | 100 | 103 h 54 m | Show | |
Taking OKLAHOMA STATE. Wow. Totally wrong on these guys. What a turn around since their bye week. And the Sooners. I thought they were a bit over hyped starting the season. QB was unbelievable and they knocked off Texas, who I thought was the best team in the Big 12. So - they get behind UCF and then hang on for a win. Ok. I get it. A little let down off Red River. Understandable. Lose a back forth shoot out at Kansas. Eh. Warning sign perhaps. Boone Pickens isn't some joke place to play. Huge rivalry. Home dog who have found their QB. Last chance for the Cowboys to beat the Sooners who have owned them the last decade. Another doggy outright? 4* Money Maker OKLAHOMA STATE |

11-04-23 | Texas A&M +5 v. Ole Miss | 35-38 | Win | 100 | 139 h 24 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS A&M. Ole Miss with wins the last 2 games, so we get a little double revenge working in our favor. We also have a pretty decent defense, which is the number 1 reason I like the points here. The fact the line has no dropped to 3 tells me all I need to know. We have an outright winner on our hands folks! 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

11-04-23 | Notre Dame -3 v. Clemson | 23-31 | Loss | -110 | 139 h 7 m | Show | |
Taking the IRISH. This is just a straight fade of Clemson here. This team is cooked. The coach looks beat. The team looks bad. At least ND plays with heart. Also on the UNDER in this one if you wanted to look at the total. Now - we have seen some teams struggle after picking up a big win. No let down after ND bashed USC 48-20. They dropped a 58 on Pitt with a bigger name foe on deck, and on the road. The UL loss to me was just a bad spot and a gassed team. This team, in my eyes, has 1 loss. And that was against a much better team. How about ND 30-1 SU vs ACC teams 22-9 ATS. Wow. The defense should have no problem vs the bite-less Tigers. You take out 66 vs Charleston Southern and 48 to FAU - what do you have? 7 vs Duke - 17 vs Wake and NCST 20 vs Miami. I mean. 24 vs FSU. I think that was their season. They did follow with a big 31-14 win at Syracuse. But, that's the 'Cuse. If they get to 17 I will be shocked. Irish by at least a TD, and honestly should be 10 or more. 4* Money Maker NOTRE DAME |

Then we look at the h2h in this series. Texas by 7-5-(freak 69-31) -3-5-6(OT) Kansas State comes to battle. Texas with a backup QB. KST plays a good run D. Kansas State in off b2b wins of 82-2. You know they are feeling good coming into their final game vs the Longhorns. 4* Money Maker KANSAS STATE |

11-02-23 | Titans +4 v. Steelers | 16-20 | Push | 0 | 96 h 29 m | Show | |
Taking the TITANS. Saw some clown on Twitter say, oh man - Pitt has won 4 in a row vs Tenny and 7 of the last 10 bro. Easy money. Yeah. Because Big Ben out-dueling Zack Mettenberger, and Bishop Sankey (2014 game) tearing it up for 38 yards is what we should be looking at. Or Levon Bell going for 200+ on the ground! Heck- The last time they played (2021) Big Ben was the QB still. Come on people. Look - yes - a short week with a rookie QB making his first NFL road start vs an always tough opponent. I think maybe Trubisky is a better fit as a veteran here than Pickett. But the Steelers have been outgained in every game this year. Henry and Hopkins are probably the best skill guys on the field and the helps the rookie QB. As much as I love Tomlin, the Titans got a HC who isn't too shabby. In what should be an ugly, low scoring game - give me any points with the visitors. 4* Money Maker TENNESSEE TITANS |

11-02-23 | TCU v. Texas Tech -2.5 | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 99 h 36 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS TECH. Laying points vs a team that has beat you 4 straight, and you have a QB that has thrown 2 TDs and 6 INTs the last 2 weeks! Sign me up!!

Taking DETROIT. We had the Ravens last week - Lions in b2b road spots, and off a win. Now, home. Raiders - come on. This team lucks itself into wins. Detroit, at least has some talent and a little spunk in them and their coach. And that is a clear edge for the home team here as well. It doesn't to me who starts for Vegas. The team will shoot itself in the foot. Need a big home win here with a trip to face the Chargers on deck for the Lions. 4* Money Maker DETROIT LIONS |

Taking the BEARS. How can anyone site there and think that you can back the Chargers laying double digits? This is team you are comfortable laying a big number with? We have to go back 9 games, January of 2023 against the Rams, to find a game they won by more than 7 points. They have no home field. Their coach might make the Bears coach look like Halas. The defense isn't all that special. Obviously this is me not having in LAC. I can't say anything about the Bears other than they have won 2 of their last 3. Momentum? I'll grab the big dogs in Prime Time. (like we did in Mid Day Money when they played Washington $) 4* Money Maker CHICAGO BEARS |

Taking the BENGALS. Said to grab this on Look Ahead Lines on Sunday night. Niners short week and Cincy off a bye week. Add in a Sam Darnold start - again, on a short week. Not a good spot for San Fran. ( I do have a Darnold Comeback POY ticket) I did like Cincy more before the line move. But still think this worth it. Anything less than +3 though I would probably go Bengals ML. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI BENGALS |

Taking the PATRIOTS. So, Miami was a 1pt favorite when these guys played earlier. Now double digits. And this line has dropped, and will probably settle around 9-10. Easy to think the Dolphins just bounce back after getting manhandled by Philly. I am fading that and grabbing the ugly dog though. Achene is out. Mosart is banged up. Hill is banged up. The trends all point to Miami. I think NE stays within the number. 4* Money Maker NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS |

Please tell me how the Badgers score more than 14? They don't. Buckeyes put up 30+ here. 4* Money Maker OHIO STATE |

Taking the SOONERS. 18 straight over Kansas. Yeah. A nail-biter last week with UCF missing a 2pt conversion. But I will give Oklahoma a pass there as they were probably still sleep walking after their big win over Texas. Nothing like a near upset as a huge favorite to get your mind focused on a team that took all your punches last year in a 52-42 game. I've been down on the Sooners. Thought they were going to be bad - yeah. Way off there. Grab some Dillon Gabriel Heisman tickets. These guys can run it and get to the playoffs undefeated. 19 TDs 3 INTs and 5 more TDs on the ground. The offense is good. The defense improved. Kansas gave up 554 yards to Ok State, and I had the Jayhawks there! How about 660 to Texas?! This offense is better. Edge Sooner defense. This should be a 14-20pt win by our guys. 4* Money Maker OKLAHOMA |

Those are scores vs ACC schools. I will not put Old Dom, Vandy and Elon even in bottom tier ACC. Let's add in that Wake has won 3 in a row in this series. Huge payback game incoming. 4* Money Maker FLORIDA STATE |

10-28-23 | South Carolina v. Texas A&M -14 | 17-30 | Loss | -110 | 142 h 46 m | Show | |
Taking the AGGIES. You get down 17-0 on the road in the first 5 minutes off a game in the SEC, you are going to have problems no matter what team name you have on your jersey. A&M got back to 24-21 but ended up losing 30-24. Rattler passed for 168 yards and 0 TDs. Payback. Yes. Huge number for an Aggies offense that hasn't shown to be all that explosive except vs ULM (47) and New Mexico (52). But this Carolina defense IS that bad. 34-41-41-30 points allowed their last 4 SEC games. Road wise - 34-12 losers Missouri - 41-21 losers at Tennessee - 24-14 losers at Georgia. 129th in passing D. A&M is a Top 45 passing offense. Aggies defense will sack Rattler 5 times today. I'm calling at least 3 TOs and 40 point outburst here. 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

10-26-23 | Syracuse v. Virginia Tech -2.5 | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 45 h 17 m | Show | |
Taking VIRGINIA TECH. Small fave TV game, the home crowd will be rocking. Hokies looking for revenge off last years lost. The Cuse - really. These guys, on the road? Yes VT is a step down from Florida State and NC who just blasted the Orange 81-10. Clemson rolled them 31-13. That is 111-23 last 3 games. We don't need a 20pt win here. A field goal gets a cover, but I think it won't come down to that. Both teams off their byes, but this is a spot Virginia Tech must have if they have any thought of playing in a bowl game. 4* Money Maker VIRGINIA TECH |

10-24-23 | Liberty -3 v. Western Kentucky | 42-29 | Win | 100 | 53 h 25 m | Show | |
Taking LIBERTY. A perfect 7-0 SU and 5-2 ATS, the Flames looking to keep it going vs WKU. Let's start with WKU who lost for us last week. Letting Jacksonville State come back and win after being up in the 4th. Bad. Maybe I shouldn't be shocked considering they were playing the 4th road game in 5 weeks. They will be pumped up for the conference leaders. The line has been moving as it appears the Flames are getting a lot of love. Where Western was picked off before this game, Liberty was strong enough to pull out the win, holding Mid Tenn scoreless for the 4th quarter. Just don't think the Hilltoppers defense can slow the rush attack tonight. 4* Money Maker LIBERTY |

10-24-23 | New Mexico State +2 v. Louisiana Tech | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 53 h 55 m | Show | |
Taking the AGGIES. I like me some Jerry Kill. Knocking on the door to their 5.5 win total, New Mexico State has won 3 in a row. On the flip side, La Tech has lost 2 straight, and 4 of 5. Some growing pains with a new HC and a new offense being put into place. You see a 3-5 team favored over 5-3, and think you should be good with the home favorite. There will be some points put up here, maybe lean a little over. But I think that the Aggies, even with their wins being against the lower tier teams, are the better team right now. They have a 3 pt loss on a last second FG at Hawaii (were leading 17-10 with 7 minutes left in game. 4They trailed Liberty, a pretty decent program 23-17 at the half on the road before getting shut out in the 2nd half. And the lost an insane back and forth game vs Umass that went for 7 TDs in the 4th quarter! If you want to go ML, I won't stand in your way. 4* Money Maker NEW MEXICO STATE |

10-21-23 | Duke v. Florida State -14.5 | 20-38 | Win | 100 | 57 h 45 m | Show | |
Taking FLORIDA STATE. Sorry Duke. This is Florida State, not Uconn. Tough spot to play. I know the defense is pretty solid. But the Seminoles seem to be on a mission. Possible freshman QB for Duke. Or a less than 100% starter. Either way, not what you want in this spot. FSU defense isn't a bad unit. This is a good spot vs an offense that should struggle. Should be a 20+ win here with Wake on deck. Not a team that will steal their focus. 21-0 SU run for the Noles over Duke. 4* Money Maker FLORIDA STATE |

10-21-23 | Michigan -24 v. Michigan State | 49-0 | Win | 100 | 147 h 28 m | Show | |
Taking MICHIGAN. Nothing can stop the Wolverines other than the NCAA with their nonsense. This is the best team in college right now. Sparty trying to get out of playing the game like the big babies they are. This game is going to be like every other Michigan game this season. Michigan defense mauls overwhelmed offense and allows 6-13 points. Wolverine offense churns through winded defense on the ground and QB picks apart a terrible Michigan State secondary for 3 TDs. It's a blowout. 47-12 4* Money Maker MICHIGAN WOLVERINES |

10-21-23 | UTSA -3 v. Florida Atlantic | 36-10 | Win | 100 | 141 h 22 m | Show | |
Taking UTSA. Ah. These guys, again. Had them to open the season 3 straight. And got 3 straight ATS losses. They did get us a cover vs Temple. I am back on them here. Now. I do like Tom Herman. I said in the preview shows that I like both of these teams Over their win totals. Herman as a home dog. Oh. Tough going against him. But - Roadrunners QB Harris seems to be back on track. That should be enough to get us the cover. 4* Money Maker UTSA |

10-21-23 | Tennessee v. Alabama -8 | 20-34 | Win | 100 | 42 h 53 m | Show | |
Taking ALABAMA. Nope. Not buying Milton or the Vols. Revenge spot - Tennessee took the goal posts out of the stadium! GOAT COACH is like Jordan. "I took that personally' Any type of motivation works. Honestly. I am shocked this is a single digit spread - These guys aren't Texas. And they sure aren't Georgia. 4* Money Maker ALABAMA |

10-21-23 | Penn State +5 v. Ohio State | 12-20 | Loss | -110 | 140 h 2 m | Show | |
Taking PENN STATE. I've said this about a couple other schools + coaches (looking at you Texas + Texas A&M) - when will you win a game vs a big time team. I think Franklin has the talent to get it done here. Both defenses pretty solid. But I something tells me that Penn State gets over the hump today. I will gladly take any points, but I will also grab a little bit of the ML here also. 4* Money Maker PENN STATE |

10-17-23 | Western Kentucky -7 v. Jacksonville State | 17-20 | Loss | -110 | 52 h 40 m | Show | |
Taking WKU. Don't be fooled by Jacksonville State and their 5-2 record. Miracle win vs UTEP. East Tenn St? They were 20pt faves. They were down 30-9 to Coastal Carolina and didn't cover. Liberty pulled away from them for an 18pt win. Hilltoppers are better than both of those programs. QB Reed is an absolute beast. Guy has 14 TDs and 3 INTs and isn't even playing that well. Going to find out how good this defense is against a good QB. I don't think they stay within 10. 4* Money Maker WESTERN KENTUCKY |

10-15-23 | Cardinals v. Rams -4.5 | 9-26 | Win | 100 | 165 h 52 m | Show | |
Taking the RAMS. These guys are 2-3 and have played at Seattle, Indy and Cincy. Home vs Philly and San Fran. Cards are, I still think, one of the worse teams in the league. I have an under 3.5 ticket on them for the season. We saw the Rams go on the road after the Niners game and play Cincy to a 19-16 game. The same Cincy team on the road dropped 34 with no Tee Higgins. Cards are bad. Kupp working his way back. Stafford has found something with Nacua. Am I crazy thinking the Rams put up 30+ this afternoon? I'll take a 10pt win, but I think we clear that by another TD. 4* Money Maker LA RAMS |

10-15-23 | Lions v. Bucs +3.5 | 20-6 | Loss | -115 | 49 h 36 m | Show | |
Taking TAMPA. We have been on these guys most of the year. I said back in August, take some Tampa 10/1 to win the South, on the free pick preview shows, and on Mid Day Money. Bucs have a defense. Lions, as I have said before. The hyped team coming into the season. Not buying them as a favorite vs a team with a good defense. Beating up on Carolina. Come on. Beating the Falcons at home with basically a rookie QB. Please. Green Bay? That win is looking a little suspect and that is coming from the guy who has GB to win the North tickets! Also on the UNDER (45.5) even though it is now down to a 42.5. Watch my Look Ahead Lines Show Sunday nights at halftime people! Numbers matter. 4* Money Maker TAMPA BAY BUCS |

10-15-23 | Colts +5.5 v. Jaguars | 20-37 | Loss | -110 | 263 h 14 m | Show | |
Taking the COLTS. Just a good spot here. Jags back from their 2 games in England, and a big win over the Bills. Had Indy back on Week 1. Couldn't punch it in from the 1. Richardson was knocked out, and, hurt again, will not be playing. But we know have a pretty solid 2 headed rush attack. A little ML might be worth a shot here also. 5* Best Bet INDIANAPOLIS COLTS |

10-15-23 | Seahawks +2 v. Bengals | 13-17 | Loss | -110 | 164 h 38 m | Show | |
Taking the SEAHAWKS. Off a bye week and will be ready for Cincy. I expect a run heavy game after Arizona gashed this defense. (Also on the UNDER). Burrow 3 TDs last week, 2 on the season before facing the Cards. Seattle defense was insane vs Giants. I think Cincy is better. But I do have doubts about their OL. Outright win here for the road team. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE SEAHAWKS |

10-15-23 | Panthers v. Dolphins -10.5 | 21-42 | Win | 100 | 164 h 33 m | Show | |
Taking MIAMI. How the heck will Carolina stay within 20 here? I know the line has moved to about 2 TDs since I posted this. I still will lay it. Carolina was down 28-7, hit a late FG at the half 28-10. It's 35-10 42-17. Garbage TD with 2 minutes left for the 42-24 final. Young is young, so expect another INT or 2. Miami's explosiveness on offense will get them a lead, and means they can come hair on fire after the QB and not worry about any running game. Miami toyed with the Giants and won 31-16 giving up 3 FGs and no TDs. Try on a 102 INT return. This should be something along the lines of 38-13. 8* Sure Shot MIAMI DOLPHINS |

10-14-23 | UCLA v. Oregon State -5 | 24-36 | Win | 100 | 147 h 24 m | Show | |
Taking OREGON STATE. Had UCLA last week - a nice upset winner to some. But, when I see the ol' unranked over ranked, it is not an upset. Bruins defense is solid. But on the road, with a young QB. Eh. Give me the home team. 14-7 in Utah. Now Beavers defense isn't Utah level, but, this is a tough road spot. Home team gets it done by double digits. 4* Money Maker OREGON STATE |

10-14-23 | Auburn +11.5 v. LSU | 18-48 | Loss | -110 | 147 h 55 m | Show | |
Taking AUBURN here. Good spot for the road dog here. LSU with big, bad, Bama on deck. A defense that has given up 39 - 49 - 34 in it's last 3 SEC games. Just what a struggling offense needs. Auburn is week on offense. No doubt about it. 14 at Cal. 10 vs A&M. But they put a 20 spot on Georgia. And no matter what that offense looked like before thney scored 50 or whatever last week, the defense was always there for the Bulldogs. An extra week for Auburn to get a little magic ready. 4* Money Maker AUBURN TIGERS |

10-14-23 | Texas A&M +3 v. Tennessee | 13-20 | Loss | -110 | 143 h 15 m | Show | |
Taking the AGGIES here. Had these guys last week, will come back on them again. Bad spot. Yeah. Not going to make any bones about it. Vols off their bye week and A&M just lost their Super Bowl to Alabama. Maybe I just fall in love with the Aggies recruiting classes. I have said multiple times on Mid Day Money how they just get guy after guy in the program. Jimbo needs this win. They have to get off the mat and beat Milton + company here. (Also on the UNDER here). The company is the run game, which A&M excels at stopping. If the coach gets these guys minds on track, Aggies should win this one outright. 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

Taking FLORIDA STATE. Here we go with the 'Cuse. Same ol', same ol' -- Jump out to a fast start. Trick you into thinking they can cover or pull and outright win vs a good team. Proceed to get destroyed and go on 5 game losing streak. Nothing major on deck for the Seminoles who should be the ACC Champs this season. FSU too good on both sides of the ball. Should be something like 38-13 this afternoon. 4* Money Maker FLORIDA STATE |

Taking the JETS. Sean Payton said Nathanial Hackett was basically a big ole pile of doo doo. You don't think these guys want to crush Denver for their coach. He was here last year. Basically knows this trash squad in an out. Not that New York can drop a 70 piece, but I expect a big J-E-T-S WIN. 8* Sure Shot NEW YORK JETS |

Taking ARIZONA. This is why I say to watch live, or listen on your podcasts to Sunday Nights Look Ahead Line Show. Line is 3. If you want to make money betting NFL, you don't bet on Sunday. Look - Do your bankroll a favor and keep taking any points that the line makers give you with teams playing Cincy. Burrow is hurt. The guy has ZERO TOUCHDOWNS in 3 of the 4 games he has played this season! Stop running to bet this team.. Here is some Look Ahead Lines for NFL Week 6 on Friday 10 days before the game. Take Seattle and the 2 points next week in Cincy! 4* Money Maker ARIZONA CARDINALS |

10-08-23 | Eagles v. Rams +6 | 23-14 | Loss | -110 | 169 h 40 m | Show | |
Taking the RAMS here. Another good number as we catch Philly heading cross country, and off an OT game. A game they probably should have lost. I know the Iggles haven't played their best - and yet they still got me last time on the road Monday night in Tampa. But this is a little better team - which is tough for me to type in here. I thought this Rams bunch was left for dead. But the offense hasn't been all that bad. The defense shows up. Line has moved from 6 down to 4. I still like anything more than a FG. Eagles defense gives up passing yards and that is how LA moves the ball. Philly has been playing with fire most of the season in these one score wins. It will catch up to them. Is it an outright win for the Rams here? Maybe. But the points will get us the cover and a W either way. 4* Money Maker LA RAMS |

10-08-23 | Giants v. Dolphins -10 | 16-31 | Win | 100 | 166 h 43 m | Show | |
Taking MIAMI. Normally I am one to say-- Yeah. So and so looked so bad we have to come back and grab them. Well - I did that after NY was destroyed on a SNF vs the Cowboys. They got demolished in the first half before coming back to beat Arizona. It is another thing saying lets take them against Miami. Dolphins off their own bad loss getting spanked by their rivals in Buffalo. Huge get back on the right track spot here. It might be a square look. But I cannot see NYG staying with, or slowing down Miami. Giants D giving up 30ppg. Offense has scored 3 vs Seattle at home, 0 vs Dallas at home - 12 in San Fran.. - and that 31 piece vs Arizona. Where do you think Miami defense falls in with those 4 teams? This should be 38-16. Miami should win this one by 20+ this afternoon. 4* Money Maker MIAMI DOLPHINS |

10-08-23 | Ravens -2 v. Steelers | 10-17 | Loss | -110 | 166 h 39 m | Show | |
Taking the RAVENS. I know I am suppose to 'buy low' here on the Steelers. Getting beat by the Texans on the road! But let's look at this team. Did nothing vs the Niners. Beat Cleveland in a game, honestly, they should have lost. Couple defensive TDs to start and end their scoring. And 1 big pass play. Do we chalk that up to the Browns being the Browns? Because the Ravens aren't the Browns. Yes. These games have been dog fights 16-13 - 16-14 - 16-13 OT - 20-19 - 19-14 the last 5 in the series. Tyler Hunter the started the last 3 games. Lamar Jackson for 1 - and, hello - RG3!! - Big Ben was playing for Pitt in 3 of the 5. DIFFERENT TEAMS. Lamar behind center is a difference maker. Don't overthink things. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE RAVENS |

Taking MICHIGAN. We had these guys last week, will come back again tonight. I think these guys and Texas are right now the top 2 teams in all of CFB. The defense is insane. Look at these score. 45-7 -- 31-7 -- 31-6 -- 35-7 -- 30-3.. Until last week, the offense wasn't even aware they were playing in games. Talk about going through the motions. Indiana up next so it is not like they will be extra resting guys for Ohio State or Penn State. Minnesota will turn the ball of 4 or 5 times here. Wolverines have allowed 1 opposing team 1st offense TD this year. If Minny is within 24-28 points here I'll be surprised. 4* Money Maker MICHIGAN |

Taking NORTH CAROLINA. Ah the 'Cuse. Let us down here last week. But that is not why we fade them here because after they get off to their fast starts, they fade. And fade and fade. Schedule gets tougher, and their true colors show. NC off a bye week. This game shouldn't be close. 4* Money Maker NORTH CAROLINA |

10-07-23 | Alabama v. Texas A&M +3.5 | 26-20 | Loss | -110 | 144 h 28 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS A&M. We have had these a few times already this season (cashed them last week!) and will take the OUTRIGHT win tonight. I don't think that Alabama is done the way they are being made out to be. But they are ripe for some take downs. Tide 2-7 ATS run as road faves. The defense has been solid for them. But I like t his Aggies bunch to Texas. Loads of talent. Can they click on all gears here? I think so. Nearly pulled out the upset last year. Got Bama the year before. Tide dynasty showing some cracks this year with a loss and some tight games and halves. A&M SEC futures. Get on them before the game starts. OUTRIGHT DOGGY $ 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

Taking UTSA. Roadrunners? More like roadkill for me. Had UTSA in their first 3 games and went a reverse perfect 0-3 ATS. QB who has been here for nearly a decade, off a bye week, we presume near 100%. If you can't blast this Temple program by 2TDs - yikes. 36-7 losers at Rutgers - 41-7 losers to Miami Florida - 48-26 losers at Tulsa. UTSA should by accident get to 30 something points. Time to get the season on track and it starts here in AAC play. 4* Money Maker UTSA |

Taking TEXAS. Now. Am I expecting another 49-0 whipping here of the Sooners. No. But, having Gabriel under center will most likely put some points on the board for Oklahoma. That being said. I think Texas is the real deal. Ewers is solid at QB. The WR + RB spots are solid. The defense, I think that is what separates the two teams. 4* Money Maker TEXAS LONGHORNS |

10-06-23 | Kansas State -10.5 v. Oklahoma State | 21-29 | Loss | -110 | 123 h 27 m | Show | |
Taking KANSAS STATE. You know I like this guys. Only loss on that 61 yard FG at Missouri. I think they run the Cowboys out of their own building tonight. 48-0 last year. Revenge for Oklahoma State? Come on. They finally think they have a QB. Does a bye week help this offense. They lose so much from last year. I think Gundy hangs it up after this disaster of a season. They beat Central Arkansas and Arizona State. Arizona State. Only win over Southern Utah. South Alabama (who we had) ran these guys out of here 33-7. It was 23-0 in the 4th quarter! Kansas State puts points on the board. Home, away. Doesn't matter. 16-6 ATS run for K-State as favorites. 4* Money Maker KANSAS STATE |

Taking the BROWNS. Well - you know we have the UNDER in this one and that is why we are also on the small home dog here. This defense is really good. Jim Schwartz doing a super job so far. The Chubb loss is bad, but the OL is good enough to carry a decent RB. Watson needs to just keep improving. I think people forget this cat was out basically a year and a half. You play in a monsoon, face the Steelers and Titans, who, last time I checked are defense first squads. I think they win the division. Burrow is a close to be doing for an extended period of time. Steelers to be are not there yet. Ravens look vulnerable. The offense is changing. The defense. Eh. I mean the bend don't break broke. You are lucky you are 2-1 not 1-2. You have a banged up OL coming to the Dawg Pound - even if their 2 starters are back, how effective will they be? 4* Money Maker CLEVELAND BROWNS |

Taking WASHINGTON and the Pennix show. Get those Heisman Futures. This kid is crushing it. I thought he would be good last year. He has been great so far this year. 43ppg last 16 games. I think they put up 50-60 tonight. Oregon on deck for Washington which does make this a bit tricky laying the big number. But looking at this series history. Arizona - Zero Defense. 49 - (21) -44 - 51- 38 - 49 points allowed to Washington. QBs change. Coaches Change. Apparently not playing defense doesn't. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON |

09-30-23 | Alabama -14.5 v. Mississippi State | 40-17 | Win | 100 | 148 h 45 m | Show | |
Taking ALABAMA. Oh the demise of Bama was short lived. Look. We know what Alabama is and isn't. The QB play has been a bit weak. The defense is still a defense. But Mississippi State. How about 78 points their last 2 games vs South Carolina and LSU. Heck - you gave up 24 to Arizona and barely escaped scoring 31 getting turnovers. I thought about the Under in this one because Bama will be running the ball and MSU has gotten away from really throwing it a ton. Bama by about 20 tonight. 4* Money Maker ALABAMA |

Taking GEORGIA. This is flat out fade of Auburn offense. Holy Cow how terrible. Forget about Samford and UMass. These guys scored 14 vs Cal (had Cal and they should have won outright) and 10 vs A&M (had A&M last week too) Forget about Georgia 'not covering.' Laying 51-42-26-39. Come on. This is a team that is looking for 3 straight championship. They don't have time to run it up in September vs joke programs. Now we get a road trip to an SEC team. Now we see some fancy offense. Or at least them covering. Samford Cal and UMass aren't great offenses. Aggies put up 27. I think the Bulldogs get at least 34. And Auburn, tops I think 17. 4* Money Maker GEORGIA BULLDOGS |

Taking MICHIGAN. 31-7 -- 31-6 -- 35-7 -- 30-3 --- Those are the Wolverines scores this season. Is Nebraska better than Rutgers Bowling Green UNLV ECU. I don't know about Rutgers, but the other 3 sure. Problem is that even here at home, I can't trust Nebraska. Saw them vs 2 decent teams in Colorado and Minnesota (and you know how I feel about Colorado) and they turned the ball left and right. What will you do against this defense? I think Wolverines Defense contributes 14/17 points based on TOs and field position. 4* Money Maker MICHIGAN |

I don't care how bac you think the Trojan defense is. It is not Colorado State or TCU bad. This offense will maul the Buffs defense. This game, like I said last week, should be a 30 point win. 4* Money Maker USC |

Taking A&M. Yeah. We have some QB concerns for the Aggies, but I am still believing. We get Max Johnson who tossed 27 TD passes at LSU a couple years ago and has some A&M starts under his belt. Or we get Weigman, who beat out Johnson for starter and has looked good when on the field this year and last. I'll tell you what, not believing much in the Razorbacks. Up 14-0 on BYU (we had BYU), lose outright 38-31 at home blowing that lead and another 10pt lead later in the game. Huge last second loser at LSU. Last second FG with 5 seconds left, 34-31. I am high on A*M and think they win this one by 10. 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

Taking PENN STATE. Will lay the big number here. Would be over and honestly, probably wouldn't be looking at this if Northwestern would have lost last week. But - you trail in the 4th quarter 31-10 and come back and win 37-34, yeah, give me PSU. This is Wildcats team that scored 14 vs Duke and 7 vs Rutgers. Penn State defense won't allow 10 points here. UMass on deck so no look ahead to Ohio State. Time to pummel a Big 10 team - and 61-13 vs Iowa and Illinois show us that PSU can put up some points. Backdoor cover is a slight concern. But, I think that PSU defense is going to force turnovers, get us some short fields. I think this is a 45-13 game. 4* Money Maker PENN STATE |

Taking the PACKERS. Again. Yes. You know GB & TB are basically the official Mid Day Money NFL Teams this year. Short week for these rivals. Huge comeback from 17-0 for a 18-17 win for the Pack. Injury holdouts flipped that line from GB faves to dogs. Maybe saving them for this bigger division matchup? As I have said before - I like Love, the coach, the defense - everything about GB. Lions beat basically a rookie QB in a road start. Now they face a team that had basically owned them, and now the Packers can play the old revenge card the way last season ended. 4* Money Maker GREEN BAY PACKERS |

I stole a half point in Week 1 with Philly on the road. They needed 4 TOs last week to beat Minny. Tampa is a solid bunch. Not sure why I was to grab them 10/1 to win the South. Defense is solid.

Andy Dalton coming in since the rookie is banged up. Line has moved a bit. Honestly. Shouldn't matter. Seahawks 28-11 (72%) ATS last 39 at home. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE SEAHAWKS |

09-24-23 | Falcons v. Lions -4.5 | 6-20 | Win | 100 | 219 h 46 m | Show | |
Taking the LIONS. Falcons pulled up a miracle win last week. Detroit, even with injuries, should take care of business here. Not sold on a young QB making road starts. I like this Atlanta team, I do. Like all the young offensive guys. For me though - this is a circle the wagons type of game. Detroit season can easily start to spiral out of control. Green Bay on Thursday night. They can't over-look anyone. 4* Money Maker DETROIT LIONS |

09-24-23 | Saints v. Packers -2 | 17-18 | Loss | -110 | 171 h 50 m | Show | |
Taking the PACKERS. You know this is basically the official Mid Money Money team. Maybe Tampa on their heels. But I do like GB. Let one slip away last week in Atlanta. But not here at home. Saints off MNF (we cashed the Under). They haven't looked impressive at all on offense. Packers might get RB + WR back for this one. Love has been solid. Defense not too shabby. Might actually think about the under in this one also. 4* Money Maker GREEN BAY PACKERS |

09-24-23 | Patriots -1.5 v. Jets | 15-10 | Win | 100 | 162 h 30 m | Show | |
Taking the PATRIOTS. Probably an ugly on in North Jersey today. I will grab the short favorite though. Jets have a defense sure. But any team they play the defense gets upgraded because of the New York offense. Patriots have a solid defense. Probably deserve better than the 0-2 they are. FGs instead of TDs hurt. Edge offense Patriots. Edge coaching Patriots. Defense equal out for me here. Patriots 11-3 ATS last 14 vs Jets. Less than 10ppg for NYJ last 4 in this series. 4* Money Maker NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS |

09-24-23 | Broncos v. Dolphins -6 | 20-70 | Win | 100 | 161 h 25 m | Show | |
Taking MIAMI. I have said multiple times on Mid Day Money how I can't bet Miami. I just worry about Tua every time the kid drops back. That being said - Denver making first road trip. A total disaster start for Sean Payton and the Broncos. From the opening on-sides kick vs the Raiders, to the defense last week giving up 35 points basically unanswered after being up 21-3. 21-3 with less than 2 minutes left in the 1st half! 13 points in 1.47 seconds! I think the Denver defense has some problems right now and facing the Dolphins isn't helpful. Broncos have lost 9 straight games after leading at halftime! wow. 2-0 on the road coming home, not laying a 7. I know it looks a little too easy to say Miami, but sign me up. Read somewhere that Denver has lost 11 straight on the road (not counting an England Win) 4* Money Maker MIAMI DOLPHINS |

09-24-23 | Chargers v. Vikings +1.5 | 28-24 | Loss | -110 | 148 h 25 m | Show | |
Taking MINNESOTA. Both teams 0-2. Chargers doing it in hear-breaking fashion in both games - And, they haven't turned the ball over yet! You knew the Vikings were playing with fire coming into the season with they way things broke for them last year. And out of the gate, 0-2. Turnovers - 4 basically inside the red zone have hurt. 2 losses by 9 points. Could be 2-0. Not a fan of either coaches. But I have to go with the home team here. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA VIKINGS |

09-24-23 | Titans +4 v. Browns | 3-27 | Loss | -110 | 135 h 26 m | Show | |
Taking TENNESSEE. Man. Said last night on Look Ahead Lines lets grab the Titans at 4.5, but was hoping for a 5. Now I see some 3.5 out there. Uh. Browns will be coming off total slug fest Monday night vs Steelers. Short week for another physical defense. Cincy - Pitt, and on deck the Ravens. Nice sandwich spot to play the ugly dogs. 4* Money Maker TENNESSEE TITANS |

09-24-23 | Bills v. Commanders +6.5 | 37-3 | Loss | -110 | 50 h 8 m | Show | |
Taking WASHINGTON. I know Washington has not looked all that great in going 2-0. Edged past Arizona with some turn over help. Denver. What is there to say. Hats off I guess. 11 points in a minute 47 seconds and it's a game and a big road win. This line jumped out to me right out of the gate. Josh Allen. Buffalo. Just have to win by a touchdown! Washington is trash. I am not a Ron Rivera guy. Think he is a lame duck running this bunch. But, they are responding and not quitting on him. Back to Allen. You have heard me say all last year the guy misses his old coach. Fumbles. Bad INTs. I think the Bills Super Bowl window is all but closed. I think this is a FG game. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON COMMANDERS |

09-23-23 | Texas -14 v. Baylor | 38-6 | Win | 100 | 143 h 21 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS. Well. I said the game vs Bama was their big test. They passed. Forget the Wyoming game. They were sleeping walking off that big win. 21 points in the 4th. This team can turn it on. Now they get an in state rival like Baylor, who has won 2 of the last 4. I think Longhorns win this by 20+. Texas has Kansas at home next. They were prepping for this instead of Wyoming. Bears don't have the fire power to hang. 4* Money Maker TEXAS LONGHORNS |

09-23-23 | Colorado v. Oregon -17.5 | 6-42 | Win | 100 | 150 h 20 m | Show | |
Taking OREGON. Not shocked this line is now 20. The summer line was 28! Look for the Ducks to hit 45-50 by themselves here. Buffs have been playing with fire in 2 of 3 games. Now you have a legit program, and you are the road without your best WR. Colorado gets torched on the ground giving up 7 yards per carry to TCU. Colorado State goes for 367 in the air. Reality time for Coach Prime. Blow Out. 5* Best Bet OREGON |

Taking ALABAMA here. At this price, sign me up. I have Ole Miss +15.5 on another site. Thought this would be about 10-12. Now I think the overreaction is too much. 4* Money Maker ALABAMA |

09-23-23 | Texas Tech -6 v. West Virginia | 13-20 | Loss | -110 | 100 h 2 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS TECH. These guys. Had them in Wyoming. Blowing a 17-0 lead. What the heck? Then the Oregon game. Oh brother. 3rd times a charm though! Let's get that elusive cover. West Va off the Backyard Brawl. Big physical battle. I thought this team would be bad this year. I called them a MAC team in August. Penn State took care of them. Putting 56 on Duquesne. Come on. Red Raiders should win this by 2 TDs. 4* Money Maker TEXAS TECH |

09-23-23 | Oklahoma -14.5 v. Cincinnati | 20-6 | Loss | -110 | 85 h 59 m | Show | |
Taking OKLAHAMA. Welcome to the Big 12 Cincy. This is where the loss of the coach and players will be felt. When a team like the Sooners come to town. Putting up 24 points against Miami Ohio and 27 vs Pitt is a little different than facing Oklahoma. And really, Pitt? Did you see that Backyard Brawl mess. Wow. So a little glimmer off a 2-1 start. EKU 66-13. They can be on the flip side of that today. This Sooners team runs a bunch of different guys at you, so you can't zero in on a RB or WR. The kid Gabriel at QB is completing 82% of his passes! 11 TDs 1 INT. Heck - the backup QB is 11-13 with 2 TDs!! Multiple RBs producing. WRs catching balls all over the place. I don't think Cincy gets within 20. 4* Money Maker OKLAHOMA SOONERS |

09-23-23 | Auburn v. Texas A&M -7.5 | 10-27 | Win | 100 | 85 h 54 m | Show | |
Taking TEXAS A&M. Tough spot for Auburn here. First SEC road game for their QB. 4 TDs and 3 INTs on the year. Last time we saw them on the road they pulled a miracle win out of their hat, but didn't cover (we had Cal there). Aggies have found some offense this year. 47-33-52. Time for Jimbo to get a little revenge, 13-10 Auburn last year. 4* Money Maker TEXAS A&M |

09-17-23 | Giants -5.5 v. Cardinals | 31-28 | Loss | -110 | 164 h 5 m | Show | |
Taking the GIANTS. This is my favorite game of the day. I mean - I was doing Look Ahead Lines at halftime last week and was like, man- Giants getting run out on SNF. Unload next week! What a spot. I know that taking road faves is not a long term winner in the NFL. But New York lost every aspect of that game. Totally humiliated. And really, if that isn't reason enough. What edge does Arizona have here? QB? RB? defense? Coaching? Maybe Arizona weather over NY. If the Giants don't win this one by 2 TDs, I will be shocked. 10* Money Bomb NEW YORK GIANTS |
