1 Volume 37 Issue 13 Date: November 14, 2018 NCAA BEST BETS Georgia Beat The Tigers Easily ATS LAST WEEK NOW % College Football Recap -- Another week, another Alabama domination. The good news is that Mississippi St. held the Crimson Tide to a seasonlow 24 points. The bad news is that the Bulldogs managed as many points as you and I. After dominating on offense for the entire season, now the Tide defense has pitched two shutouts in a row. Is there any reason to continue this season, or should be just crowd them champions right now? -- Michigan rolled up a 76-0 victory in 2016 at Rutgers, and this season's installment of the Wolverines is much more powerful. What would happen? Believe it or not, the Scarlet Knights were tied with the No. 4 Wolverines 7-7 after 15 minutes. Then, the bottom fell out, but they did enough to cover the 36 1/2-point number in a 42-7 loss. The Scarlet Knights are 3-0 ATS across the past three outings. -- Over the years, Kentucky has been a doormat in the SEC, but this year they were playing for a championship. Last weekend they hosted Georgia in a battle for the SEC East title. They came up short, but surely they wouldn't lose to Tennessee again, would they? The Vols spoiled things for the Wildcats in a big way, 24-7 in their most complete game of the season. -- Iowa hosted Northwestern as 11-point favorites, looking to keep their hopes alive in the Big Ten West. The Wildcats trailed 3-0 at halftime, but they rallied for a road win. After a 1-3 SU start, the Wildcats are 5-1 SU over their past six games while going ATS across the past seven outings. -- Miami-Florida started the season with huge expectations in a neutral-site game against LSU in Arlington. They were never in that game, but they rallied for five wins in a row. It turns out, they're not very good. They have lost four in a row and they have failed to cover five in a row, slipping to 5-5 SU/3-7 ATS overall. The 'under' has hit in four in a row for the Canes, too.... Florida St. headed to Notre Dame, and the Irish had to turn back to QB Brandon Wimbush due to an injury to QB Ian Book. No problem. The Irish smoked the 'Noles to easily cover a 17-point number, moving to ATS over the past seven with the 'over' Indiana hosted Maryland, winning to move to 5-5 SU/4-6 ATS. The Hoosiers haven't managed to cover in back-toback games this season. They're at Michigan next Saturday as they look for the second straight cover.... Penn St. ended the hopes of Wisconsin in the Big Ten West, The Badgers have been horrific against the spread, going 0-3 ATS over the past three and 2-8 ATS across the past 10. The 'under' is 3-0 over the past three contests for the Badgers, too.... Nebraska laid 17 points against Illinois, and at the time it seemed a bit much. The Huskers, already eliminated from bowl contention, roughed up the Illinin to cover the number. The Illini have slipped to 1-4 SU/ATS, failing to secure their fifth win. It's more than likely they'll be home for the holiday like the Wildcats.

2 -- Kansas covered a 10-point number against rival Kansas St., falling at Bill Snyder Family Stadium by a score. The Jayhawks slipped to 3-7 SU, but they're a respectable 5-4 ATS over the past nine outings.... Bedlam lived up to the hype and then some. Oklahoma held a lead at halftime over Oklahoma St., and the game was tied late. The Sooners scored a go-ahead touchdown late, leading 48-41, but Cowboys came right back and scored to make it HC Mike Gundy elected to go for two late, and the Pokes failed. It was a great game, though, and they easiler covered the 21 1/2.... Texas Tech was performing in front of the nation for a second consecutive weekend, and they lost another heartbreaker. This time it was Texas nipping them There were just 37 points on the board going into the fourth quarter, but 'over' (62 1/2) received a gift with 38 total points in the fourth. -- California snapped a 14-game losing streak to USC, winning in a defensive battle. The Golden Bears are also bowl eligible for the first time in three years, while the Trojans are still waiting to punch their ticket. USC is 1-3 SU ATS across the past four outings, and now they need a win at rival UCLA or against Notre Dame if they want to go bowling.... Colorado started 5-0 SU, but now they're 5-5 after a 31-7 loss against Washington St.. The Cougars moved to 9-1 SU/ATS as the good times continue to roll. -- Missouri have qualified for a bowl, helping themselves out with a win over Vanderbilt. The Tigers are 6-4 SU/5-5 ATS even though they have failed to cover back-to-back games since Sept The 'under' is 3-0 over the past three for Mizzou.... Florida beat old bud Will Muschamp and South Carolina, The Gators opened 6-1 ATS in the first seven, but they're 0-3 ATS over the past three. -- ESPN's Scott Van Pelt referenced Florida Atlantic, Louisiana Tech and someone else last week on his show, as the bad beat kings. The Owls association with bad beats is uncanny. They led with less than three minutes go, and they got the ball back with an 18-point number. Then RB Kerrith Whyte Jr. ripped off a 77-yard TD run with 2:19 to go, changing the result to an FAU cover. -- With a total of 45 1/2, Southern Mississippi tied Alabama-Birmingham with 7:09 to go. Neither team was able to boot a game-winning field and save 'under' bettors. USM kicked a field goal, UAB scored a TD and the over bettors were celebrating. -- Memphis led over Tulsa into the final minute with a total of 65 1/2. The Golden Hurricane scored a meaningless touchdown with :11 to go, flipping the under to an over for a tough bad beat. -- Last, but certainly not least, Mississippi slipped at Texas A&M The Rebels were catching 13, and they were tied with 4:04 to go in the third quarter. A&M took a 10-point lead, 31-21, with 4:36 to go, and Old Miss booted a field goal wiht 1:51 to take a lead. The Aggies recovered the onside kick, and it appeared they'd run out the clock. But for Rebels bettors...they took an awful beat, as Trayveon Williams ripped off a 46-yard TD run 12 seconds later to take a lead, changing an Ole Miss cover into a bad beat.

3 COLLEGE FOOTBALL BEST BET Toledo - 13 & 60 at KENT ST Under Total By 13 Thursday Night Game The Toledo Rockets saw a third straight win go by the wayside in a defeat at Northern Illinois in week eleven. Toledo held a small yardage edge and forced a pair of turnovers but saw NIU return a blocked punt for a score. Rockets quarterback Eli Peters connected on for 264 yards and a touchdown while running ten times for 27 yards. Art Thompkins was the top runner for Toledo with 62 yards on 12 totes followed by Bryant Koback totaling 47 yards on eleven carries. Cody Thompson was the Rockets top receiver with eight catches for 110 yards while Jon Vea Johnson snagged a 23 yard scoring pass. The Kent State Golden Flashes could not compete with Buffalo on either side of the ball in a loss in week eleven. Kent State managed 183 yards and held the ball for under 25 minutes with the Bulls piling up 478 yards. The Golden Flashes struggled to throw the ball with quarterback Woody Barrett completing 6-13 for 27 yards while losing 13 yards on five carries. Dustin Crum gave Kent State 66 rushing yards on ten touches with a score while Jo-El Shaw ran 20 times for 50 yards. Crum also tossed an eleven yard TD pass to Mike Carrigan for the Golden Flashes second score. Toledo Rockets are ATS in their last 4 games after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game and Toledo Rockets are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and over is in Toledo Rockets last 7 Thursday games. Under is 4-0 in Kent State Golden Flashes last 4 games following a ATS loss and under is 4-0 in Kent State Golden Flashes last 4 games following a straight up loss and Kent State. Golden Flashes are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS loss. Home team is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings. Toledo needs to win this and anything but a complete effort will be a disappointment. We believe they will win this game, but the margin of victory is in question due to being a two touchdown favorite on the road. We believe the better wager is on the total, as Kent St had a horrible time trying to score last week. Toledo will get out front and play it safe in the second half as their defense stifles Kent State. Take the under 60 in this game. Projected Score: Toledo 30, Kent State 17 COLLEGE FOOTBALL BEST BET Ohio St Over MARYLAND By 7 The Buckeyes look for their 10th win of the season to stay in Big Ten title and college football playoff conversations. The Buckeyes have won two of their three road games. Dwayne Haskins is completing 69% of his passes for 3,280 yards, 33 TD's and six picks. Haskins has three or more TD passes in six of his 10 games. K.J. Hill and Parris Campbell have combined for 1,406 receiving yards and 13 TD's while Terry McLaurin has 26 receptions. The Buckeyes ground game is averaging 172 ypg, and J.K. Dobbins leads the way with 712 yards and seven TD's. Defensively, Ohio St is allowing 22 points and 385 ypg. Malik Harrison leads the Buckeyes with 52 tackles, Dre'Mont Jones has 6.5 sacks. The Terrapins look for a monster home victory to become bowl eligible for the fourth time in the last six years. The Maryland Terrapins have won three of their last four home games. Kasim Hill is completing 49% of his passes for 1,083 yards, nine TD's and four picks. Hill has one or less touchdown passes in 10 of his 13 career games. Taivon Jacobs and Jeshaun Jones have combined for 497 receiving yards and six touchdowns while Dontay Demus has nine receptions. The Maryland Terrapins ground game is averaging yards per contest, and Anthony McFarland leads the way with 724 yards and two touchdowns. Defensively, Maryland is allowing 25.4 points and yards per game. Tre Watson leads the Maryland Terrapins with 98 tackles, Byron Cowart has three sacks and Darnell Savage Jr. has four interceptions. The Buckeyes are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 conference games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Ohio St Buckeyes are finding ways to win, but their last three victories have come by an average of 13.6 points, so it's not like they've been lighting the world on fire as of late. The Terrapins have lost five of their last eight games, but they showed signs of life last week against Indiana and get a third shot at clinching a bowl berth. The Ohio St Buckeyes have split their last 10 games ATS when favored by at least 17 points. The Maryland Terrapins have failed to cover six of their last seven games when an underdog of at least 17 points. Ohio St simply looks sluggish lately. The offense isn't as explosive as you'd expect and they allow teams to hang around far too often. The Maryland Terrapins have played some of their best ball against the better teams on their schedule and are still fighting for a bowl berth. This is also senior day for the Terps, and they have 23 seniors on this roster. We like the value of the points here with the home team. Take Maryland to cover the spread. Projected Score: Ohio St 31, Maryland 24

4 COLLEGE FOOTBALL BEST BET ARKANSAS ST - 9 Over LA Monroe By 1 The surging UL Monroe Warhawks have racked up four straight wins after downing South Alabama as a touchdown road favorite. UL Monroe was dominant on both sides of the ball with a yardage edge behind a strong passing attack. Caleb Evans was nearly perfect throwing the ball connecting on for 367 yards and a pair of touchdowns while running 12 times for 54 yards and two more touchdowns. Marcus Green topped the Warhawks on the ground with 68 yards on two touches with a trip to the end zone while D Marius Gillespie hauled in seven catches for a contest high 159 yards and a TD. The Arkansas State Red Wolves are gunning for a third consecutive victory after upending Coastal Carolina 44-16as a touchdown road favorite. Arkansas State owned a edge in yards with the ability to run and throw while forcing two turnovers. The Red Wolves were almost perfect in the air with quarterback Justice Hansen connecting for 253 yards and four touchdowns while Logan Bonner hit on 5-9 for 28 yards. Marcel Murray and Warren Wand combined for 118 rushing yards on 15 carries with each finding the end zone. Kirk Merritt topped the Red Wolves receiving corps with eleven receptions for 180 yards. Under is 6-0 in UL Monroe Warhawks last 6 games after accumulating more than 280 yards passing in their previous game and UL Monroe Warhawks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after allowing less than 20 points in their previous game and UL Monroe Warhawks are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games in November. Under is in Arkansas State Red Wolves last 9 games in November and under is 7-1 in Arkansas State Red Wolves last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points and Arkansas State Red Wolves are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games after accumulating more than 280 yards passing in their previous game. UL Monroe Warhawks are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Arkansas State and favorite is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings and UL Monroe Warhawks are 0-8 ATS in their last 8 meetings. We are well aware of the domination the Redwolves have had over the Warhawks in regards to the spread. But the Warhawks have been playing lights out lately and we think these teams are equal at this time and the difference is minute. So we'll take the points and the surging Warhawks to take this game to the wire and cover with the generous points. Projected Score: Arkansas State 31, LA Monroe 30 COLLEGE FOOTBALL BEST BET Miami -4 at VIRGINIA TECH 52 Under Total By 8 Miami is sitting at 5-5 on the year. The Hurricanes have taken out Savannah State, Toledo, FIU, UNC and Florida State this year but fallen to LSU, Virginia, Boston College, Duke and Georgia Tech. In the GT game, Miami QB N Kosi Perry put up 165 yards, while Cam ron Davis led the rush on 48 yards and a score from six totes. Jeff Thomas was the high Hurricane receiver with 84 yards on six grabs. Over on the Virginia Tech side, they re 4-5 this season. The Hokies wins have come against Florida State, William & Mary, Duke and UNC, and they ve lost to Old Dominion, Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Boston College and Pittsburgh. In the Pitt game, VA Tech QB Ryan Willis put up 231 yards and three scores, and also led the rush on 65 yards from 16 carries. Eric Kumah was the top receiver for the Hokies there with six catches for 80 yards and a TD. The Hurricanes are 1-5 ATS in their last six following a straight-up loss and 1-7 ATS in their last eight road games. Miami is 0-4 ATS in their last four in November and 0-5 ATS in their last five overall. Meanwhile, the Hokies are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games and 1-5 ATS in their last six in November. Virginia Tech is 0-4 ATS in their last four conference games and 0-4 ATS in their last four following an ATS loss. Miami is currently riding a four-game losing streak, as they seem to have sputtered shortly after beginning conference play. In three of those four games, the Hurricanes have put up 14 points or fewer. As for VT, they ve lost their last three and four of their last five. The Hokies have given up at least 31 points in each of their last three games. We feel like this game is pretty equally matched overall, but both teams are ice cold ATS lately and we don't trust either side to get an ats win and cover. We're much more comfortable with the talent level of the defenses opposed to their opposing offensive units. We're going to play the under in this game. Projected Score: Miami 24, Virgina Tech 20

5 COLLEGE FOOTBALL BEST BET GEORGIA SOUTHERN - 6 Over Coastal Carolina by 16 The Georgia Southern Eagles have followed a five game winning streak with back to back defeats after a loss to visiting Troy in week eleven. Georgia Southern struggled on both sides of the football with the Trojans holding a edge in yardage. Eagles quarterback Shai Werts completed for 190 yards and a pair of touchdowns while leading a weak rushing attack with 35 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. Wesley Fields was the biggest Georgia Southern offensive threat with five receptions for 138 yards while Ellis Richardson caught a two yard and three yard touchdown passes. The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers have dropped consecutive contests to fall to 5-5 after suffering a defeat to visiting Arkansas State. Coastal Carolina managed just 293 yards and gave the ball away twice which couldn t compete with the Red Wolves 454 yards. Chanticleers quarterback Kilton Anderson was ineffective going 5-13 for 19 yards and an interception but Fred Payton connected on for 146 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Torrance Marable gave Coastal Carolina 59 rushing yards on 12 carries and caught four passes for 33 yards with Jacqez Hairston totaled 51 yards on four totes. Jeremiah Miller topped the Chanticleers with three catches 59 yards including a 24 yard TD strike. Over is 4-0 in Georgia Southern Eagles last 4 games overall and over is 4-0 in Georgia Southern Eagles last 4 games on grass and over is 4-0 in Georgia Southern Eagles last 4 games in November. Over is 6-1 in Coastal Carolina Chanticleers last 7 games after allowing more than 280 yards passing in their previous game and Coastal Carolina Chanticleers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game and Coastal Carolina Chanticleers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game. Georgia Southern certainly looks vulnerable right now and are down right overrated if they can t get the win in this matchup. Take Georgia Southern to ground pound a win and cover. Projected Score: Georgia Southern 37, Coastal Carolina 21 11/14/18 7:00 ET 11/14/18 8:00 ET Buffalo Ohio Miami (OH) Northern Illinois COLLEGE FOOTBALL LEANER PICKS The surging Ohio Bobcats saw their four game winning streak end in a defeat a Miami (OH) and now trail Buffalo by two games with two to play. Bobcats are in desperation mode so they're the play. Miami (OH) proved how dangerous they are in beating Ohio. Northern Illinois is focused on the MAC title and at home, but it will not be an easy win against the upset minded Redhawks. NIU wins, but Miami O covers. 11/15/18 8:00 ET Tulane Houston The Green Wave are one win away from reaching a bowl game for the first time in five years, and they're outscoring teams by an average of 13 points during their three-game winning streak. Tulane and the points seems like the play here. 11/15/18 9:30 ET Florida Atlantic North Texas North Texas has been solid at home this and as Mason Fine should be able to put some points on the Owls defense, We're taking North Texas to cover this small home spread in the little D.. Denton TX. 11/16/18 9:00 ET Memphis S.M.U. SMU is playing decent ball recently, Memphis hasn't been good on the road, and the Mustangs have a chance to clinch a bowl game in their last home game of the season. This feels like a good spot to take the points. 11/16/18 9:00 ET Boise St. New Mexico Boise State is the better football team by a large margin, however, New Mexico was solid at home recently against San Diego St and their offense will put up a few points, Take the Lobos to cover at home with this large amount of points Pittsburgh Wake Forest Pitt put on an offensive clinic in the Virginia Tech game. The Panthers have looked good over their last 5 games. This should be a pretty good game. In the end however, Pitt has a slight edge in what should be a good game. Take Pitt Northwestern Minnesota Minnesota still has something to play for and senior day is big as well for the Gophers. Minnesota needs this game to go bowling and there's 13 seniors on this roster. Take the home dog Gophers to sneak past the napping Wildcats.

6 Penn St. Rutgers Expect Rutgers to put up a fight here in the last home game of the year with 16 seniors on the roster. We're still iffy on Penn State and don't trust this team on the road. Take a shot with Rutgers and the points and pray a bit South Florida Temple The home team is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings. The under is 20-9 in Bulls last 29 games in November and the under is 9-4 in Owls last 13 home games. We're going to back the trend and go under the total Middle Tenn St. Kentucky Middle Tennessee has struggled against the SEC in the past, but this could be a game where things turn for the Blue Raiders. MTSU is playing some solid football right now, so take the Blue Raiders and the points here T.C.U. Baylor Underdog is 7-0 ATS in their last 7 meetings and over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Baylor and over is 6-1 in the last 7 meetings. Neither side has been overly consistent but the Horned Frogs are over due for a win Arkansas Mississippi St. The road team has had the bulk of the success ATS when these two meet. but Mississippi State has been very good ATS at home this season and I think they keep that going with a big win over Arkansas here Michigan St. Nebraska TheSpartans are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games. Michigan St has a tought time scoring and their opponents have a tough time scoring on them. Nebraska and Michigan State look like an under plaky to us. 12:20 ET North Carolina St. Louisville NC State had a good two-game run going, playing Syracuse tough and then taking out Florida State before they were upset by a plucky Wake Forest. As for Louisville, they've been getting pummeled. Wolfpack gets our backing. 1:30 ET Utah Colorado The Buffaloes are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a double-digit loss at home. We think the Buffaloes will be able to keep this one close against a Utah team that is not as good on the road, Take Colorado and the points in this one. 2:00 ET Florida Intl UNC Charlotte Charlotte 49ers are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 home games and Charlotte 49ers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games after accumulating less than 275 total yards in their previous game. Charlotte has played some good defense so take them to cover. 2:00 ET Utah St. Colorado St. Utah St has been absolutely outstanding this season as they come into this game with the top-ranked scoring offense. Colorado St defense has had trouble this season and come into this game ranked just 119th in scoring. Take Utah St. 2:30 ET Syracuse Notre Dame Syracuse has 2 losses to No. 2-ranked Clemson and a tough Pitt team and a 3 rd to a strong Irish squad. The defense makes the difference and the enormous NC offensive line wins the battle for Notre Dame. They cover ever so slightly. 2:30 ET Georgia St. Appalachian St. App State, has been mowing down the competition outside of that loss to GA Southern and look to be hitting their groove quite well. Despite the enormously spread, go with the Mountaineers for the cover here. 2:30 ET Texas-San Antonio Marshall UTSA has gone back to their old form. Since a three-game win streak, they've posted a total of just 30 points. Marshall is playing pretty well lately. We can't find a whole lot of reasons to pick UTSA. Take the Herd here Iowa Illinois The Iowa Hawkeyes are riding a rough three-game losing streak and have failed to cover 6 of L9 when fav of 14+ points. The Fighting Illini have failed to cover their last four games when an underdog of at least 14 points. Lean to Iowa Wisconsin Purdue The Purdue Boilermakers have scored at least 30 points in each of their last four home games and have the athletes to give this Badgers defense some issues. Take the home team by a touchdown to narrowly cover the sperad Virginia Georgia Tech Aside from a 10-point loss to a good Pitt team, Virginia has been taking care of business, going 4-1 L5. The Jackets have been rolling along quite well since that Duke game, so we're going to take GT to win a close game, but UVA covers Texas Tech Kansas St. It's been a tough season for Kansas State but their defense has been good. Texas Tech has lost three. Giving points to Kansas St at home is dangerous, bkut we're taking Texas Tech to cover this road spread by just a few points Missouri Tennessee Tennessee needs it to become bowl eligible, but the favorite has had the bulk of the success between these two teams. All in all, Tennessee's win over Kentucky was a solid result, and they can build on it with bowl season on the line, so take Tennessee and the points at home here.

7 4:00 ET 4:00 ET 4:00 ET 4:00 ET 4:30 ET 5:00 ET 5:00 ET 7:00 ET 7:00 ET 7:00 ET 7:30 ET Tulsa Navy West Virginia Oklahoma St. Louisiana Tech Southern Miss Bowling Green Akron Boston College Florida St. Texas St. Troy Southern Cal UCLA Indiana Michigan Massachusetts Georgia Liberty Auburn Air Force Wyoming Oregon St. Washington Nevada San Jose St. South Alabama Louisiana-Lafayette Duke Clemson Connecticut East Carolina UAB Texas AM Stanford California While Navy has its big game against Army in a couple of weeks, this is the last true home game for the Midshipmen and there are 36 seniors on this roster. It's going to be a big deal for Navy to get the job done. Eat the chalk with Navy.. Over is 5-1 in Oklahoma St Cowboys in Cowboys last 6 games following a straight up loss. Both of these squads can put up a ton of points. So expect a high scoring game and our play is on the over. Southern Miss Golden Eagles are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games in November and over is 5-0 in Southern Miss Golden Eagles last 5 games in November. Total line looks a bit light, so take the over in this game. Akron is a defensive-minded team however, the Zips could be in real trouble in this one if Kato Nelson can't go as the Akron offense looked completely lost without him against Eastern Michigan. Take BGSU if Nelson is out. Eagles really didn't do much offensively in the Clemson game, and they're a bit banged up now. FSU ran through a gauntlet of very good conference teams over their last three. Why is line only 2? Looks like a trap, take Florida State. Trojans are ATS in their last nine conference games and ATS in their last four home games. Troy is 4-0 ATS in their last four in November and ATS in their last nine overall. Troy to cover this big spread at home. USC has had a disappointing season. USC has been hit hard by injuries this year. They really need this game as they meet Notre Dame next week. USC does enough to win but we think UCLA covers in a close game. With Ohio St on deck, Michigan wants to win without injury. The Hoosiers won't dent their defense, especially on the road. Take the Wolverines but beware the backdoor cover as starters may be pulled late to get ready for Ohio St next.. This is a ton of points to lay, even with Georgia at home, because one UMASS score and you've left yourself open to a backdoor cover. This line is daunting. We have to take UMASS and the points here. Liberty is 16-3 ATS in their last 19 non-conference games and the Flames have hung around in some dogfights. With that said, Auburn will be the toughest test the Flames will have faced and will be too much for Liberty to handle. Play AU. The Falcons are ATS in their last six overall and we're going to go with Air Force to get the cover here in what should be a battle fought on the line of scrimmage for both squads. The Beavers are 1-10 ATS L11 conference games. The Huskies are 0-5 ATS L5 games. Washington has the much better defense but they're giving a boatload of points to Oregon St. We're taking Washington to cover this large home spread. Nevada Wolf Pack are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 conference games and Nevada Wolf Pack are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games on fieldturf and Nevada Wolf Pack are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall. No reason to to pick them. Since their 45-7 drubbing of Alabama State, the Jaguars have lost three straight games. As for Louisiana, they've been up and down in their last four, scoring a total of 33 points in two and 83 in the other two. Take the under in this game. Tigers are 5-0 ATS in their last five conference games and 4-0 ATS versus a team with a winning record. Clemson is 5-0 ATS in their last five in November and 5-0 ATS in their last five overall. We're not getting in front of hungry Tigers. UConn Huskies are downright awful on the defensive end, but they're coming off one of their best offensive performances in quite some time and Pindell seems to be getting more comfortable each week. UConn + the points if forced to pick. UAB is ATS in L 27 games and 7-1 ATS L8 games against a team with a winning record. Texas A&M is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 home games, but they better take UAB seriously. Take UAB. Stanford comes into this game having lost 4 of their last 6 games as their defense has been a disappointment. The Golden Bears are a very solid team who have held their opponents to just 12.5 ppg over the past 4 weeks. Cal wins. 51 Rice Take a shot with Rice and the truckload of points here as Eddie shows mercy on

8 7:30 ET -44 LSU 7:30 ET 7:30 ET 7:30 ET 8:00 ET 8:00 ET 10:15 ET 10:30 ET 10:30 ET 10:30 ET 11:00 ET Mississippi Vanderbilt Kansas Oklahoma UTEP Western Kentucky Cincinnati Central Florida Iowa State Texas New Mexico State BYU Arizona State Oregon Arizona Washington State San Diego State Fresno State UNLV Hawaii the Owls and gets to play all the backups that worked so hard all year long. Ya Eddie gives the subs some love here and Rice covers the spread. The Rebels have been brutal ATS the last couple of seasons, including away from home, where the Rebels are 0-3 ATS this season. Therefore, we're going to back the Commodores off a nice win to keep it rollinjg. Take Vandy. Home team is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings and Kansas Jayhawks are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 meetings in Oklahoma. The spread is huge so the question to ponder is whether the OUklahoma D is going to stop somebody? Take Kansas. Western Kentucky Hilltoppers are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 conference games and are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall and finally meet a team that they just may be able to handle. Take the Hilltoppers to top the spread. The UCF winning streak is well documented and eight of their nine victories have come by double digits. The Bearcats have failed to cover 9 of L12 games when an underdog of 7+ points. Take the UCF Knights to win by a touchdown. Montgomery is questionable for this game for Iowa State, and if he is a go, we're leaning Cyclones here. Conversely, without Montgomery Iowa State is vulnerable and we lean to the Longhorns. Check his status. BYU has been wildly inconsistent in the scoring department, and could only muster six points versus Northern IL despite allowing just seven. The Cougars did hang 35 on UMass, though. We're leaning towards New Mexico State here. It s been a tough last month for the Ducks after picking up that huge victory against Washington, the Ducks have lost 3 of L4 games. Oregon is a tough place to play and they have one of the best QB s in the country. Go Ducks. Washington State is going to win this game, however, we think the Wildcats are going to make it a very competitive close game. We're going to take the Wildcats to cover with the points. San Diego State has been a tough team to get a read on this season and they burned us last week. Their offense doesn't have many weapons outside of Juwan Washington. Fresno State, at home, covers this large home spread.

9 Brady was stifled by the Titans NFL Football Recap NFL BEST BETS ATS LAST WEEK NOW % -- The Tennessee Titans upended the New England Patriots by a score in Nashville in one of the most surprising results of the weekend. Head coach Mike Vrabel got the best of the master, his former boss Bill Belichick, while QB Tom Brady and the offense looked very ordinary. It doesn't help that TE Rob Gronkowski has been sidelined, but WR Julian Edelman and WR Josh Gordon are playmakers, and RB James White is healthy. The Patriots defense just couldn't stop anyone. The Titans improved to 3-0 ATS over the past three, and 6-2 ATS across the past eight. It was a tremendous difference from their last home game back on Oct. 14 when they were blanked by the Baltimore Ravens 21-0 while QB Marcus Mariota was sacked 11 times in that one. -- The Los Angeles Chargers have won six in a row and appear to be in a good place. They're flying under the radar out west, playing in the shadows of the Los Angeles Rams for some reason, perhaps because they play in a larger stadium? It's hard to understand. The Bolts are a good team, but not many are talking about them. They're 4-1 ATS over the past five outings while the 'under' is also 4-1 during the span, so there is plenty of opportunity to make money off of the Bolts, too. They're also 3-0 SU/ATS in the past three road contests. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a strange result on Sunday. They lost 16-3 against the Washington Redskins, which isn't terribly shocking since the 'Skins are in first place in the NFC East. However, even with their quarterback turnstile, they had scored 24 or more points in seven of their first eight games and the 'over' was a league-best 7-1. The three points they scored was shocking, as was the 16 points they yielded. That was also a season low. -- On Thursday night, the Carolina Panthers-Pittsburgh Steelers (51) connected easily. There were 21 points on the board in the first five minutes, and it was all downhill from there. In fact, eventually the Steelers ended up taking care of the over themselves. Speaking of doing it all by themselves, the Buffalo Bills also took care of the 'over' (37.5) themselves in a victory on the road against the New York Jets. Not many saw that coming in a game which featured QB Matt Barkley started for the Bills and QB Josh McCown starting for the Jets. -- The lowest total on the board was that Bills-Jets game. In fact, that was the only game on the board with a total under The Detroit Lions-Chicago Bears (44.5) was the second-lowest game on the board and it also hit the over, as did the third-lowest total, the Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles (45.5) game also hit in the final four minutes. -- On the flip side, three of the five games with a total over 50 points saw the 'over' hit, although the Chargers-Raiders (50.5) game never was close to hitting, not was the 'Skins-Bucs (51) contest. -- The 'over' went 2-0 in the two primetime games in Week 10, with the Monday night game between the New York Giants- San Francisco 49ers (45) still pending. Overall for the 2018 season the 'over' in primetime games is (50.0%). The 'under' has cashed in seven of the past nine battles on Sunday Night Football, although the Cowboys-Eagles game snapped a nice trend. Injury Report -- Detroit Lions WR Marvin Jones (knee) left early due to a knee issue and he was unable to return. -- Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (knee) is feared to have suffered a torn ACL in the team's win over the Seahawks. He will have an MRI on Monday to confirm. -- New England Patriots WR Julian Edelman (ankle) checked out early due to an ankle injury, while TE Dwayne Allen (knee) also left and didn't return.

The under is 11-4 in Giants last 15 games overall and the over is 8-2 in Buccaneers last 10 games overall. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming off a game against the Washington Redskins in which they had no trouble moving the ball but couldn't finish drives. The Buccaneers now go on the road where they haven't won since opening week, and they're being outscored by 15 points during their four-game losing streak. The New York Giants actually looked like a decent football team last Monday night, as Eli was completing passes and the offense showed signs of life. Who knows how long it lasts, but the Giants are a capable team when Manning is kept upright, and they've won three of their last six games when topping 20 points. In a pick em game, I have more confidence in the Giants at home than I do the Buccaneers on the road. The Giants should be able to build on last week now that Odell Beckham and others finally got going. Eli and the Giants explode offensively, so take the Giants to win and cover at home. Projected Score: NY Giants 31, Tampa Bay 21

11 PRO FOOTBALL BEST BET Minnesota at CHICAGO 46 Under Total By 9 Minnesota enters this one with a record overall.

In the Detroit game, Vikings QB Kirk Cousins logged 164 yards, a TD and a pick while Dalvin Cook managed 89 yards on 10 totes. Tops in receiving was Laquon Treadwell with two grabs for 37 yards.

Chicago is 5-1 ATS in their last six versus the NFC and ATS in their last five versus the NFC North. The Vikings offensive numbers from the Lions game don t look all that impressive on paper, but they did a good job of spreading the ball around, with six guys getting multiple catches. Minnesota has now won four of their last five. As for the Bears, they seem to be hitting the stride everyone predicted they d have early in the season, and with their three-game win streak they re shaping up to be one of the tougher teams in the conference. This should be an interesting game as usual, and I think the Bears and Vikings will play their usual games of tough defense.after all, this is the black and blue division. 2 of 2 games in this series have gone UNDER THE TOTAL over the last 3 seasons and the total points scored in the last 4 games was 43, 37,48,30 an average less than 40 ppg.

12 11/15/18 8:20 ET Green Bay Packers Seattle Seahawks PRO FOOTBALL LEANER PICKS We're getting free points with Aaron Rodgers, and that's not something we can turn down. In pretty much a do-or-die game for both teams in terms of the playoff race, I trust Rodgers to find a way on the road. 1:00 ET -4 Carolina Panthers 51.5 Detroit Lions You could definitely argue that this game is must-win for Detroit, as a loss here would probably end all playoff hopes if there were any left. The problem is that Carolina has an extra couple days of rest, and that means we go Panthers. 1:00 ET Dallas Cowboys Atlanta Falcons The Falcons three-game win streak was trashed against Cleveland, but they re certainly capable of bouncing back here. Not a believer in the Cowboys just yet, so we're taking Atlanta here--though if the line inflates anymore we may flip. 1:00 ET Tennessee Titans Indianapolis Colts Most games between these two squads are interesting, and this one will be no different as a playoff spot could come down to some of these matchups. We are going Colts in what should be a fun game to watch. 1:00 ET 1:00 ET -3 Houston Texans 42.5 Washington Redskins -5.5 Pittsburgh Steelers 47.5 Jacksonville Jaguars The Redskins are a physical team that finds ways to grind wins out. The problem is the Texans are more talented, red hot and rested. It's hard to bet against the Texans here and the low line. Take the road team Texans. Don't expect us to consider home dog Jags. Not gonna happen. Pittsburgh is rolling right now and should be able to ride their offense to another win and cover here so lay the points with the Steelers in this one. 4:05 ET Denver Broncos Los Angeles Chargers Broncos have had an extra week to prepare, and while the losses are getting out of hand, four of their six losses have been decided by seven or less points. We'll take the touchdown in a game the Chargers should win by :05 ET Oakland Raiders Arizona Cardinals Raiders just can t get anything going this season. The Cardinals have actually covered in 3 of their 5 home games this year while Oakland is 0-4 SU and 1-3 ATS on the road, so lay the points with Arizona in this spot. 4:25 ET Philadelphia Eagles New Orleans Saints The Eagles have covered 6 of L8 when an underdog of 7+ points. The Saints have failed to cover their last four as a fav of at 7+ points. Take the home dog.
