20* SHARP PLAY on Browns +10½ -113

The Browns (+10.5) are worth as a big road dog against the Chiefs in Sunday's AFC Divisional matchup. While Mahomes and KC offense figure to be able to move the ball against a suspect Browns defense, I think Baker Mayfield and that Cleveland offense will be able to do their part when they have the ball. Chiefs kind of have a way of coming out flat in these playoff games before rallying to win. I just don't see this turning into a blowout. Play the Browns +10.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Packers -6½ -110

The Packers (-6.5) are worth a look laying less than a touchdown at home on Saturday against the Rams. LA had an impressive win at Seattle over Wild Card weekend, but they had a number of guys get banged up. Aaron Donald is going to play but will he be 100%? It seems unlikely. Goff is also playing at less than 100%. That's the Rams two most important players. Green Bay is healthy and fresh after getting a bye and I just don't see them having much trouble here. Play the Packers -6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Ohio State +9 -109

Ohio State (+9) is worth a shot as a big dog against Alabama in the National Championship Game tonight. Not saying the Crimson Tide shouldn't be favored, but no way should they be laying more than a touchdown in this one. Buckeyes showed just how good they are in their 49-28 thrashing of Clemson, while I think more was to be expected from Alabama in their game against Notre Dame. Buckeyes have also gone 21-7 ATS in their last 28 as a dog of 3.5 to 10 points. Play Ohio State +9! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Packers -4½ +102

The Packers (-4.5) are worth a look as a short road favorite against the Bears. Green Bay needs this game to clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC, while the Bears can earn a Wild Card spot with a victory. The fact that Chicago has something to play and have looked good over the last month, I think it has the Bears getting too much respect here. Chicago's simply feasted on some bad teams, who all play little to no defense. Aaron Rodgers is just too good to lose a game like this. Play Green Bay -4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Cowboys -1 -115

The Cowboys (-1) are worth a look as they go on the road to face the Giants in a big game that could propel one of these teams to a division title if Washington were to lose at Philadelphia later tonight. Dallas comes in having won 3 straight and have scored 30+ points in each of those victories. The Giants have lost 3 straight and scored a combined 26 points in those 3 games. I just don't see New York being able to keep pace offensively in this one. Play the Cowboys -1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Miami-FL +2½ -105

The Hurricanes (+2.5) are worth a look here as a dog against the Cowboys. I know Miami has some key guys sitting out on defense, but the Hurricanes still have more than enough talent on that side of the ball to keep this Oklahoma State offense in check. Miami also has a massive edge at the most important position on the field with their quarterback D'Eriq King going up against the Cowboys Spencer Sanders. The wrong team is favored here. Play the Hurricanes +2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills -7 -105

The Bills (+7) are worth a look here as a touchdown favorite on the road against the Patriots. Just because Buffalo has locked up the AFC East doesn't mean there isn't more to play for. The Bills still got a shot at the No. 2 seed, which would ensure another home game if they can win on Wild Card weekend. Also, if there's a game they are going to lay down in, it's next week against the Dolphins. Not at home against the Patriots on Monday Night Football. New England just doesn't have the offense to keep this close. Play the Bills -7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers +2½ -112

Pittsburgh (+2.5) is worth a look here as a small home dog against the Colts. This is the perfect time to jump back on the Steelers bandwagon. I know the Steelers have lost 3 straight and just lost as a two touchdown favorite last week at Cincinnati, but they should not be a home dog here. This is still one of the top teams in the league and I confident they get things back on track with a win against Indy. Play Pittsburgh +2.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on 49ers +5 -105

The 49ers (+5) are worth a look here as a decent road dog against division rival Arizona. With SF having played their last few home games at Arizona's stadium, the home field edge is not as strong as it normally would be. I also think there's a perception here that because this game means everything to Arizona in terms of making the playoffs and nothing to SF, that the 49ers are going to not show up. I don't think that will be the case at all. Plenty of motivation for SF to play spoiler. Play the 49ers +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Marshall +5½ -110

The Thundering Herd (+5.5) are worth a look here as a pretty big dog against the Bulls. Buffalo put up some crazy stats against a soft schedule in their 5 MAC games, but were a complete no show in the title game against Ball State. I just think people are forgetting how bad the MAC is. Marshall didn't look much better losing to UAB in the C-USA title game, but in terms of talent the Herd are the much stronger team and I like them to win this game outright. Play Marshall +5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawaii +11 -113

Hawaii (+11) is worth a look as a double-digit underdog against Houston in the New Mexico Bowl on Christmas Eve. This is just too many points for the Cougars to be laying in this one. Houston is far from full strength going into this game. They are still down 12-16 players, including 3 key guys who opted out (WR Marquez Stevenson, LB Grant Stuard, DL Payton Turner). Hawaii went just 3-5 ATS in their 8 games this season, but dogs with a losing ATS record have quite a track record in bowl games. They are cashing at a 59% rate since 2006. Rainbow Warriors aren't just good enough to cover, they can win this game. Play Hawaii +11! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers -14½ +100

The Steelers (-14.5) are worth a look as a big road favorite against the Bengals. I just think because Pittsburgh hasn't looked as good here the last few weeks, it has people hesitant to lay this many points on the road with them. I get it, but all signs here point to the Steelers running away with this one. Cincinnati can't do anything on the offensive side of the ball and the defense isn't much better. They have to play great and have a lot of breaks go their way just to make games competitive since losing rookie quarterback Joe Burrow. Play the Steelers -14.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Chargers +3½ -108

The Chargers (+3.5) are worth a look catching more than a field goal on the road against division rival Las Vegas. I know the Raiders technically are the only team in the playoff race, but I just think LV is in a bad place right now. They got multiple starters out on defense and I don't think firing the DC is going to make things any better on that side of the ball. It's a lack of talent more than it is coaching. There's also plenty of motivation for LA to play spoiler here in a prime time game. Play the Chargers +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Browns +3½ -115

The Browns (+3.5) are worth a look on Monday Night Football. Cleveland will be hosting division rival Baltimore in a game you know the Browns have had circled after that ugly 38-6 loss they were dealt by the Ravens back in Week 1. These are two different teams since they played in September. Cleveland is surging off 4 straight wins. Baltimore is just 1-3 in their last 4 and while they did win their last game, it was against a bad Cowboys team who plays absolutely no defense. This is also a tough spot for the Ravens, who are playing their 3rd game in 13 days because of that Week 12 game against the Steelers getting pushed back almost a week. Play the Browns +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants +3 -113

The Giants (+3) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Cardinals. The public really has fallen in love with Kyler Murray and Arizona this year. Even though the Cardinals are reeling, they continue to get love from the books. I just don't think they should be a favorite in this one. Arizona has lost 3 straight and failed to cover 5 straight games. Murray just doesn't seem right and that's a problem with the lack of defense this Cardinals team plays. Not to mention the Giants are one of the best defensive teams in the league. Play New York +3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Georgia -13 -110

The Bulldogs (-13) are worth a look in Saturday's SEC East clash with Missouri. Georgia deserves a lot of props for continuing to play hard despite the fact that their No. 1 goal of winning the SEC East and making it back to the playoffs are out of reach. A big reason for that is the recent addition of starting quarterback J.T. Daniels to the lineup. Had he been there from day one, this probably would be a playoff team. The offense has really come to life under Daniels and should have a field day against a Missouri defense that has struggled against every good offense they have faced. Play Georgia -13! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Ravens -8½ -102

The Ravens (-8.5) are worth a look as they host the Cowboys on Tuesday. Baltimore has lost 3 in a row and have been hit hard with Covid over the last couple of weeks, but they are getting a lot of guys back and should be ready to go for this one. Had these two teams played a few weeks ago, everyone would be on Baltimore at this price. I just don't get the love for Dallas. Cowboys can't stop the run, which is a big problem against Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense. Dallas also is depleted on the offensive line after losing two more starters in their last game. Play Baltimore -8.5!

15* SHARP PLAY on Texans +3½ -115

Houston (+3.5) is worth a look, as I don't think the Texans should be catching a field goal and the hook at home in a division game. Texans have really been a much more competitive team since they let go of Bill O'Brien. They come into this one having won 3 of their last 4 games and are riding a 3-game cover streak. Colts just got annihilated at home by the Titans 45-26. A once dominant Indy defense has now allowed 76 points in their last 2 games. Look for Deshaun Watson to have a big game in this one. Play the Texans +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars +10½ -110

The Jaguars (+10.5) are the gift that just keeps on giving. Jacksonville has lost 10 straight and the books just keep inflating the number on this team, because the public only looks to play the other side. Jags have covered 3 of their last 4. Vikings are a good team and have been playing better of late, but no way should they be laying double-digits. Minnesota likely gets the win, but by 10 or fewer. Play the Jaguars +10.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Kansas State +7½ -110

Kansas State (+7.5) is worth a look in Saturday's Big 12 matchup against Texas. In terms of talent, there's no question that the Longhorns are the more talented team. Talent doesn't mean anything if you aren't interested in playing and I just don't see Texas showing up motivated for this game. Longhorns are off a crushing loss to ISU in the final minutes that knocked them out of the Big 12 title race. Play Kansas State +7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Cardinals -1½ -105

The Cardinals (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em against the Patriots. I just think the books are giving New England way too much respect. With Kyler Murray cleared to play, I look for Arizona to win this game rather easily. Patriots just don't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace and are dealing with more injuries on their offensive line. Play the Cardinals -1.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Giants -6 -110

The Giants (-6) are worth a look here at less than a touchdown favorite against the Bengals. I just don't trust this Cincinnati team at all without Joe Burrow at quarterback. Burrow did a great job covering up a bad offensive line and no run game. Without him this offense is going to struggle to just get first downs. There's also nothing left to play for for the Bengals. Giants on the other hand can move into a tie with the Redskins for 1st place in the NFC East. New York is also coming off a bye. Play the Giants -6! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Coastal Carolina -17 -103

The Chanticleers (-17) are worth a look as I got them having no problem beating Texas State by 20+ points. There's just something special with this Coastal Carolina team. They are now 8-0 and ranked No. 20 in the country. They had a scare last week against App St, but this team has made easy work of bad teams and that's exactly what Texas State is. The Bobcats are 2-9, getting outscored by almost 10 ppg and outgained by more than 100 ypg. Play Coastal Carolina -17! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Bowling Green +24½ -110

As difficult as it may be to back Bowling Green, we will take the points (+24.5) with the Falcons against Ohio. the Bobcats only beat Akron by 14 last time they were on the field. Ohio just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to easily cover a number like this. BG does anything offensively and they cover this one no problem. Play the Falcons +24.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Texas PK -110

Texas (PK) is worth a look at a pick'em against the Cyclones. Iowa State's Matt Campbell has done a lot of great things with the program, but he's had a hard time getting his team to play well against the Longhorns. Cyclones are 0-4 ATS against Texas under Campbell and I'm confident they go to 0-5. Defensively I think Texas can slow down Iowa State's ground game and on the flip side I like the Longhorns ability to move the football behind their stud QB. GIve me Texas PK! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans +6 +100

The Titans (+6) are worth a look in Sunday's NFL action that has Tennessee visiting Baltimore. I just don't trust this Ravens team at all right now. Lamar Jackson is nothing close to the MVP player we saw a year ago and the defense hasn't been as dominant in recent weeks as it was early in the year. Ravens couldn't slow down Derrick Henry last time they faced the Titans and I look for him to have another big game here. I'm confident Tennessee covers this number and would not be shocked if they won outright. Play the Titans +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Seahawks -3½ +113

The Seahawks (-3.5) are worth a look as a small home favorite on Thursday Night Football against the Cardinals. This is a prime spot to buy low on Seattle coming off back-to-back losses. Everyone is all over Russell Wilson for his poor play. On the other side you have the Cardinals fresh off a win over the Bills where they won the game on a last second Hail Mary pass. Could be tough for Arizona to get their emotions in check on just a few days rest. Also, Seahawks are going to be out for revenge from a 34-37 loss at Arizona in a game they really should have won. Play Seattle -3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Ball State -13½ -110

Ball State (-13.5) is worth a look in Wednesday's MACtion that has Ball State hosting Northern Illinois. The Cardinals lost a game they should have won in their opener at Miami and then won a game they probably should have lost at home against Eastern Michigan. I just don't think we have seen this team put it all together and this Northern Illinois team is one they can exploit on both sides of the ball. I just don't see the Huskies keeping pace offensively in this one. Northern Illinois could only manage 10 points on 244 total yards in their last game against C Michigan. They also have turned it over 7 times in two games. Look for the Cardinals to have this covered by the half. Play Ball State -13.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on UCLA +3 -109

The Bruins (+3) are worth a look here as a small dog against Cal. This is an interesting matchup, as both UCLA and Cal had their original games for Saturday postponed because the other team was dealing with Covid. Now they will play each other in what will be a 10:00 am start time on Sunday. I just give the edge here to UCLA, as they have played a game already and the offense looked good. I think not having time to prepare for the Bruins could have Cal's defense playing under their potential. Play UCLA +3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Liberty -32½ -109

We will lay the big number (-32.5) with No. 22 Liberty as they host FCS foe Western Carolina. The Flames come in off a 38-35 upset win as more than a two touchdown dog at Virginia Tech, improving to 7-0 on the season. Liberty has now scored 30 or more in 5 of their 7 games, including each of the last 3. They should have their way against an lessor opponent in Western Carolina. Big disadvantage for the Catamounts, who have not played a game yet this season. Play Liberty -32.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans -1½ -110

The Titans (-1.5) are worth a look at home against the Colts on Thursday Night Football. It's no secret that Tennessee has been a little fortunate to be sitting with a 6-2 record, but this is still a really good team. I think the books have made a mistake here and really undervalued the Titans at home against a good but not great Indianapolis team. Play the Titans -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Colorado State +14½ -109

The Rams (+14.5) are worth a look in Thursday's matchup at Boise State. It just feels like the Broncos are getting a pass for last week's ugly loss to BYU because of their quarterback situation for that game. What about the defense? Boise State didn't defend well against Air Force the week before. Colorado State has made a QB switch for the better and got back one of their top receivers last week. Steve Addazio has a very experienced team in his first year with the Rams and I think they can keep this much closer than expected. Play Colorado State +14.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Indiana +3½ -110

The Hoosiers (+3.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Wolverines. I just think because Michigan already won in this spot as a short road favorite (beat Minnesota in their opener two weeks ago), people are trusting them here against a much better Indiana team. I get the Hoosiers haven't looked great in their 2-0 start, but they have beat Penn State at home and won on the road against an improved Rutgers team. I just don't think they should be a dog in this fight. Play Indiana +3.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Virginia Tech -14 -112

The Hokies (-14) are worth a look here at home against Liberty. Hugh Freeze has really turned around the Flames program, as they come in 5-0. One of those being against Syracuse out of the ACC. I think that has some thinking they can keep it close here and I just don't see that happening. Syracuse is so much worse than the next team in the ACC. Va Tech has WAY more talent here. Hokies offense should have their way in this one. Play Virginia Tech -14! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Miami-FL -10 -109

The Hurricanes (-10) are worth a look here against a NC State team that isn't very good on defense and is nowhere close to the same team on offense without starting quarterback Devin Leary, who they lost for the season. I just don't see how the Wolfpack can score enough to keep this one competitive. Miami is better on both sides of the ball. Play the Hurricanes -10! 

20* SHARP PLAY on 49ers +6½ -115

The 49ers (+6.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Packers on Thursday Night Football. The narrative for this one is the 49ers got no chance with all the guys they are missing, but this SF team has pulled this stunt before and went out and won when they had no business doing so. We don't need them to win, just keep it close and with the struggles GB is having on defense, I think they can at worst keep it within a TD. Play the 49ers +6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nevada -16 -110

The Wolf Pack (-16) are worth a look here at home against the Aggies. This game has blowout written all over it. I'm way down on Utah State this year, as I don't think they can replace a talent like Jordan Love at QB and stay competitive. We have seen that out of the gate with a 42-13 loss at Boise State and 38-7 setback at home against San Diego State. Now they face another MWC powerhouse in Nevada, who can light up the scoreboard. Play the Wolf Pack -16! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants +13 -115

The Giants (+13.5) are worth a look as a near two touchdown home dog on Monday Night Football. There's just not a lot you can do to get the public to take New York against a red-hot Bucs team. So while this number might seem like a lot, it's probably inflated a couple points. The value here is with New York. Giants have a decent defense and are going to play inspired in this spot. You also have to wonder if the Bucs won't have a hard time looking ahead to next Sunday's prime time game (SNF) against division rival New Orleans. Play The Giants +13! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Dolphins +3½ -108

The Dolphins (+3.5) are worth a look. Everyone is down on Miami right now because they decided to bench Fitzpatrick for Tua. I get Fitzpatrick was playing well, but there's no question the more upside is with Tua and there's been nothing to make you think he's going to play poorly. I really think Tua is going to impress and having two weeks to prepare is huge for the youngster. I also feel like he's catching the Rams at the right time. LA is playing on short rest and has to travel clear across the country for an early start time. Play the Dolphins +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Boston College +29½ -109

Boston College (+29.5) is worth a look here as a huge road dog against the Tigers. As most of you know, Clemson will be without starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence, as he tested for positive for Covid. Even when Lawrence was playing, I liked BC to keep this thing within the number. Eagles have a big time talent of their own at quarterback in Phil Jurkovec. Also with Notre Dame on deck for Clemson, I think they just do enough to get the win and make sure they are as healthy as they can be coming out of this game. Play Boston College +29.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on East Carolina +17½ -110

The Pirates (+17.5) are worth a look here as I feel the books have finally got up to this Tulsa team and have created some big time value with East Carolina. The Golden Hurricane are 3-0 ATS in 3 games and have covered with ease in all 3. Now they are being asked to lay way too many at home against an East Carolina team that should be able to put up points with quarterback Holton Ahlers back from injury/. Keep in mind with Ahlers, these Pirates put up 28 points and over 450 yards against UCF. Play East Carolina +17.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Falcons +2½ -101

The books are begging for money on the Panthers, who will host the Falcons on Thursday Night Football. The public is taking the bait. Even still big money is on Atlanta in this one, as the line continues to drop. Falcons undervalued because of how they keep finding ways to lose games. They are much better than their 1-6 record. Play Atlanta +2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Packers -3 -115

The Packers (-3) are an easy play for me. I just think what happened to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers last week in that ugly loss to the Bucs was an outlier for Green Bay. It couldn't have looked better to start, but they lost momentum and could never get it back. Rodgers had as bad a game as I can remember him having. Great players have a tendency to come back from a bad game with a great game. Texans have been playing better since they fired O'Brien, but they are off an all-time gut wrencher in last week's OT loss to the Titans. Play the Packers -3!

15* SHARP PLAY on Memphis -13 -110

Memphis (-13) is worth a look laying less than two touchdowns at home against the Owls. Most are going to see this as a letdown spot for the Tigers, as they are fresh off that crazy 50-49 win over ranked UCF. I don't think that will be the case at all. As for Temple, they have not looked good against a couple of bad teams in Navy and USF. They lost outright as a favorite against the Midshipmen and only beat USF 39-37 (had no business winning) as a 13.5-point favorite. Play Memphis -13! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills +5 -105

We are going to take the points with the Bills (+5) in their big Monday Night Football matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. No surprise we have seen the line move in favor of KC. While both teams lost last week, the betting public will have a hard time seeing the Chiefs lose two straight. That's why they keep backing them at a bad price. The value here is with the Bills catching over both the key numbers of 3 and 4. Would not be surprised at all if Buffalo won this game. Play the Bills +5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Rams -3 -105

The Rams (-3) are worth a look at San Francisco on Sunday Night Football. I lot of people look at this line as the books baiting you to take LA, but I think it's more of the 49ers still being overvalued from their Super Bowl run a year ago. This is the same team that just lost 43-17 at home to the Dolphins last week. I get they will have Jimmy G back, but he's not going to help the defense. Sean McVay and that Rams offensive attack should have a field day in this one. Play the Rams -3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Patriots -8½ -110

The Patriots (-8.5) are worth a look at home against the Broncos in Week 6. Both teams haven't played since Week 4 because of COVID. The extra time to prepare will be beneficial to both teams, but more so to Bill Belichick and his staff. Few, if any, are better are preparing for an opponent. Patriots are also expected to get back starting QB Cam Newton, who was playing at a very high level before missing the Chiefs game with the virus. I expect him to have a big game here against a depleted Broncos defense. Play New England -8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Memphis +3½ -112

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

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans +3½ -110

The Titans (+3.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Bills. No one is giving Tennessee much of a shot in this game, even though the line suggests the books see this as a pretty even matchup. Titans will be down some key players, but they still got Henry and Tannehill. That's more than enough to move the ball. Buffalo is no longer a defensive juggernaut like they have been in years past. Play the Titans +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Saints -7 -110

I will lay the points with the Saints (-7) at home against the Chargers on Monday Night Football. It's been an up and down start to 2020 for New Orleans. A lot of people might look to take the 7 with LA, especially with how well rookie Justin Herbert has been playing. Also, no Michael Thomas for the Saints. I just don't see the Chargers keeping this close. 

We saw New Orleans get that offense back on track in their last game against the Lions. With the way Drew Brees and this offense like to show out in prime time home games, I expect NO to put up a big number. Herbert is good, but he's mistake prone. Chargers are also greatly handicapped by their head coach. Play the Saints -7! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Liberty -18½ -110

The Flames (-18.5) are worth a look in Saturday's college football action. Flames come in at 2-0, which includes an outright win as a 15.5-point dog against WKU. ULM has been awful. Warhawks are 0-4 and 1-3 ATS. Their defense has been awful, as they are allowing 35.3 ppg and 436 ypg. They got no shot here at keeping this Flames offense in check. Play Liberty -18.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears +5 -110

The Bears (+5) are worth a look here as a home dog on Thursday Night Football against Tom Brady and the Bucs. No question that Tampa Bay is the public side in this one. I think we are getting a ton of value here with Chicago. Brady and that Bucs offense is hurting right now. They got several key guys out and others that are playing at less than 100%. Nick Foles wasn't great in his first start, but should bounce back with a strong showing in this one. Play Chicago +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Houston -6½ -110

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

15* SHARP PLAY on Colts -2½ -110

The Colts (-2.5) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Bears. Everyone's perception of Chicago has changed dramatically after they finally benched Trubisky in favor of Nick Foles. I think it will entice a lot of people to take the points with the Bears at home. I just don't see Chicago winning this game. Colts are a sneaky good team and really have a good defense. Play the Colts -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Panthers +3½ -115

The Panthers (+3.5) are worth a look catching over a field goal at home against the Cardinals. Most have just written off Carolina after they lost star running back Christian McCaffrey. It's a big loss, but this team is out to prove there's more to offer than just him. Teddy Bridgewater has looked good with this team and he should be able to have some success against this Arizona defense. Arizona is not all they are made out to be and we saw some of that last week in their home loss to the Lions. Play the Panthers +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on BYU -24 -105

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

20* SHARP PLAY on Jets +1 -115

The Jets (+1) are worth a look at basically a pick'em at home against the Broncos. Most will find an excuse to not watch this game between two bad teams that have been ravaged by injuries. I on the other hand see value with New York. Jets have a big edge playing at home on short rest and while Darnold is far from a franchise QB, he's better than what Denver is sending out in Rypien. Play the Jets +1! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Patriots -5½ -110

I'll take my chances here with the Patriots (-5.5) at home against the Raiders. This is a good time to fade Oakland. Raiders have started out 2-0, but this is not a playoff team. Not uncommon for a bad team to pull off a big upset in prime time like Oakland did last week beating the Saints on MNF. Now the Raiders are on short rest and have to travel across the country for an early start time. Cam Newton and the Pats will be too much. Play New England -5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Missouri +28 -104

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

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

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

20* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars -3 +105

The Jaguars (-3) are worth a look as a slim field goal favorite at home against the Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. Everyone was expected Jacksonville to be the worst team in the NFL. So far that hasn't been the case. Jags upset the Colts in Week 1 and almost upset the Titans in Week 2. Dolphins are not a good team and I think the worse a team is the harder it is for them to play well on the road in these Thursday games with just 3 days off. Minshew Mania will be in full force tonight. Play the Jaguars -3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars +7½ -105

The Jaguars (+7.5) are worth a look as a big home dog against the Titans. Jacksonville pulled off the upset of Week 1 with a 27-20 victory over the Colts as a 7-point dog. No one was giving the Jaguars any shot in that game. The perception everyone had with this team is they were tanking for Trevor Lawrence. 

Clearly the players and coaches aren't trying to tank with the effort they gave in Week 1. I like Minshew. He's a legit NFL quarterback. Not having Fournette isn't the end of the world. Tennessee wasn't very sharp in their Week 1 game at Denver and now are on a short. Play the Jaguars +7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jets +7 -105

The Jets (+7) are worth a look as a touchdown dog at home to the 49ers. I wasn't impressed at all with what I saw in San Francisco week 1. It's hard to explain and every year people think this is the team that will be the exception, but the Super Bowl loser really has struggled to perform close to expectations the following season. 

49ers lost some key pieces and are really decimated with injuries right now. They won't have George Kittle and he's who the offense really runs through. I get the Jets are a bad team, but this not as big a mismatch as you might think. Play the Jets +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears +2½ -103

Chicago (+2.5) is worth a look here as a small road dog against the Lions. I think there's such a negative perception with the Bears because of Trubisky at quarterback that it has them showing big time value in Week 1. The Lions are just not a good team and the time is running out on head coach Matt Patricia. They got Matthew Stafford, but he's going to be without his go to guy in Kenny Golladay. They also have several other guys on the injury report. Bears defense is still rock solid and I think the offense will be much better in 2020. Play Chicago +2.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Seahawks -2½ -105

The Seahawks (-2.5) are worth a look against the Falcons. I really like Seattle to win this game. Russell Wilson is every bit as good as any other QB in this league and he should have himself quite the 1-2 punch with Lockett and Metcalf. Seattle's defense also got a massive upgrade in safety Jamal Adams. We all know how important the safety position is in that defense from the days they had both Chancellor and Thomas. Atlanta is all flash with their passing game. They don't have a very balanced attack and there's plenty of concerns with that defense. Play the Seahawks -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on UAB +14½ -110

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

20* SHARP PLAY on South Alabama +15 -110

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

20* SEAHAWKS/EAGLES NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Eagles +2½ -110

My money is on the Eagles to cash in a win and cover as a 2.5-point home dog against the Seahawks in Sunday's NFC Wild Card action. Seattle has the much better record, but the Seahawks are no where close to as good as their record would indicate. Seattle only had two wins all season by more than a touchdown and closed out the season losing 3 of their last 4 when they had a chance to win the NFC West and get a first round bye. We saw New England struggle down the stretch and lose at home to the Titans yesterday. Eagles have all the momentum and just seem to find a way to win these games in the postseason when they are a dog. BET PHILADELPHIA +2.5! 

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

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

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

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

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

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

15* SEAHAWKS/RAMS NFL SHARP WINNER on Rams +1 -105

My money is on the Rams to cash in a win and cover at home against the Seahawks. I just feel like the price here is too good to pass up with LA at home. Rams are not as bad as what people think and I was really impressed with how this team bounced back last week in their blowout win at Arizona off that ugly showing against the Ravens on MNF the week before. SEahawks are also not as good as their 10-2 record. Seattle has been very fortunate in close games and winning on the road inside the division is a real challenge for these NFC West teams. BET THE RAMS +1! 

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

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

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

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

15* LA TECH/UAB (ATS) CFB SHARP WINNER on Louisiana Tech +7 -115

My money is on the Bulldogs to cash in a cover as a 7-point dog at UAB in Saturday's C-USA matchup. LA Tech lost 31-10 at Marshall after having their starting QB and top wide out suspended right before the game. That's tough to overcome on short notice, especially on the road against a team as talented as Marshall. UAB is no where near as good as their 7-3 record and should not be laying this many points in this one. BET LOUISIANA TECH +7! 

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

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

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

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

20* CHIEFS/CHARGERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Chiefs -4 -110

My money is on the Chiefs to cash in a win over the Chargers in Mexico. I think now is the ideal time to buy low on Kansas City. This line is basically saying that the Chiefs would only be about a pick'em on a neutral field. I don't think that's legit at all. LA just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace with Mahomes and that explosive KC offense. BET THE CHIEFS -4! 

20* DOLPHINS/COLTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Dolphins +12½ -113

My money is on the Dolphins to cash in a cover here as a double-digit dog at the Colts. Even after beating the Jets 26-18 as a 3.5-point dog for their first win of the season, the public is still not going to want anything to do with this team. Thing is, Miami has been quietly getting better with each week and there's just no way the Colts should be laying double-digits here with starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett out for this game. BET THE DOLPHINS +12.5! 

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

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

15* MARSHALL/RICE CFB SHARP WINNER on Marshall -10½ -110

My money is on the Thundering Herd to cash in a win and cover at home against Rice. The Owls aren't as bad as their 0-8 record, but they also aren't deserving of being less than a two touchdown dog against this Marshall team. The Herd are rolling right now with 3 straight wins and got plenty of motivation to make sure they go into their bye on a 4-game run. Rice just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep this close. BET MARSHALL -10.5! 

15* IOWA/NORTHWESTERN CFB SHARP WINNER on Northwestern +10 -110

My money is on the Wildcats to cash in a cover as a double-digit home dog against Iowa. I think we are getting value here with Northwestern sitting at 1-5 and the Hawkeyes ranked in the Top 25. Iowa has not looked good the last few weeks. They can't run the ball on offense and are having a horrible time finishing drives with touchdowns. They got some key guys out as well. Northwestern has won 3 straight in the series and wouldn't be shocked at all if they won outright on Saturday. BET NORTHWESTERN +10! 

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

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

20* PATRIOTS/JETS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jets +10 -115

My money is on the Jets to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog at home against the Patriots on Monday Night Football. I think we are getting a price on New York because of their record, but this is clearly a different team with Sam Darnold at quarterback. Patriots are 6-0, but the schedule has been very favorable to this point. NE couldn't run the ball when these two met up in Week 3 and Brady will be without several key option in the passing game because of injury. Jets are more than capable of winning this game outright. BET NEW YORK +10! 

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

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

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

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

20* LIONS/PACKERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Lions +4 -110

My money is on the Lions to cash in an easy cover here as a 4-point road dog against the Packers on Monday Night Football. No one wants to give this Detroit team any love and yet the books are begging the pubic to take Aaron Rodgers and the Packers here as a small home favorite. I just think the Lions defense can make things hard on Green Bay's offense and maybe win this game outright. BET THE LIONS +4! 

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

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

20* BILLS/TITANS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bills +3 +105

My money is on the Bills to cash in an easy win and cover at Tennessee. I think a lot of people are going to expect Buffalo to have a bit of a letdown here on the road after that big game against New England, but I'm not buying it. I really think the Titans are limited offensively and that Bills defense is going to make it really tough on them. Buffalo's offense isn't great, but they really can run the football. Bills are averaging 5.0 yards/carry against teams that on average are only giving up 3.9 yards/carry. Titans are allowing 4.6 yards/carry. BET THE BILLS +3! 

15* BEARS/REDSKINS NFL SHARP WINNER on Redskins +5½ -105

My money is on the Redskins to cash in a cover at home against the Bears. Chicago just hasn't showed me enough offensively to lay more than a field with them on the road. They should have lost last week at Denver and while the Redskins are 0-2 they have been competitive against division rivals Philadelphia and Dallas. I think Washington's defense can keep them in it and get the cover. Bet the Redskins +5.5! 

15* S CAROLINA/MISSOURI CFB SHARP WINNER on South Carolina +9½ -110

My money is on the Gamecocks to cash in a cover here at Missouri. I don't think South Carolina is getting near the respect they deserve for how well they played last week against Alabama. The backup QB looked like he might have deserved to be starting all along. It wasn't like the Crimson Tide got up early and let South Carolina hang around. They were competitive early, which says a lot. Gamecocks also really need this game if they want a legit shot at a bowl. Bet South Carolina +9.5! 

15* MIAMI (OH)/OHIO STATE CFB SHARP WINNER on Miami-OH +39½ -110

My money is on the RedHawks to cash in a cover here as a massive road dog against Ohio State. Miami (OH) has a ton of kids who dreamed of going to play for the Buckeyes and didn't make the cut. They are going to come out with a chip on their shoulder and I think they are getting Ohio State at the perfect time. Buckeyes are due for a letdown after getting up for their first 3 against FAU, Cincinnati and Indiana. Plus they got a massive game on deck at Nebraska next week. Much like they did against the Owls in Week 1, Ohio State will get up comfortably early and call off the dogs to allow the cover. Bet the RedHawks +39.5! 

15* SMU/TCU CFB SHARP WINNER on SMU +9½ -109

My money is on SMU to cash in a cover here against the Horned Frogs. TCU is getting a lot of love for going on the road and beating Purdue without their starting QB. I'm still not sold on the Horned Frogs and I really like what I have seen out of SMU. Texas transfer QB Shane Buechele has been lighting it up and the defense is better than expected. I think they hang around against one of their many in-state rivals. Bet the Mustangs +9.5! 

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

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

15* BOSTON COLLEGE/RUTGERS CFB SHARP WINNER on Rutgers +8½ -109

My money is on the Scarlet Knights to cash in a cover on the road against the Eagles. No way should Boston College being laying more than a touchdown here against Rutgers after that performance they gave in a prime time game at home against Kansas. Scarlet Knights are better than the 30-0 beating they took at Iowa and BC definitely doesn't have the talent that the Hawkeyes have on the defensive side of the ball. Plus, Rutgers has a big edge here coming off a bye week. Bet the Scarlet Knights +8.5!
