12-20-12 | BYU -3 v. San Diego State | Top | 23-6 | Win | 100 | 53 h 6 m | Show |
25* graded play on the BYU COugars as they take on the San Diego State Aztecs in the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl set to start 8:00 PM ET. This game will be on ESPN and ESPN3D for your viewing enjoyment. The simulator shows a high probability that BYU will win this game by six or more points. Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 40-13 ATS record for 76% winners since 2002. Play against all dogs of 3.5 to 10 points off two straight wins facing conference rivals and now facing an opponent off a double digit road win. 50% of all the games played based on the criteria of this system covered the spread by seven or more points and underscores my strong belief that this will be a 10+ point BYU win. For money line players, here is a system that has gone 92-36 for 72% winners since 2006. Play on a road team using the money line that is a quick starting offensive team scoring 16+ PPG in the first half and after a win by 35 or more points. I am expecting BYU to get off to a fast start and then their significant size and physicality advantages on both sides of the ball will steadily wear down the Aztecs. The Aztec defense plays well, but are undersized against the BYU OL. They must take leveraged angles and maintain gap discipline, both of which they are vastly inconsistent at executing. Moreover, the Aztec third level are for the most part poor tacklers and will be vulnerable to the many different screen passes that BYU runs. BYU has a luxury in two solid QB in their stable only discovered by the injury of Senior starter Riley Nelson that gave fellow Senior James Lark at shot at starting for the first time in his career. Lark delivered in that first start throwing for 6 TD. Lark is excellent at getting the ball out quickly and has the WR corp that get enough separation for Lark to easily complete underneath passes. he also leads them well for after the catch yardage. Riley has a much more accurate arm in middle and long distance throws, but also can execute underneath routes nearly as equal. Since they are both Seniors playing in their last game, it only stands to reason that the coaching staff will elect to use both of them in this bowl game and in my opinion, it makes the Cougars that much more dangerous and even more difficult for the Aztecs to prepare for. BYU ranks fourth best in the FBS allowing just 14.8 PPG and second in both opponent yards per rush at 2.7 and opponents rushes per game at 30 attempts. Aztecs are a run dominated offensive team and their inability to establish the run is going to make it extremely difficult for them to compete for four quarters with the Cougars. Take BYU.

25* graded play on Toledo as they take on Utah State in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl set to start at 4:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Toledo will lose this game by 10 or fewer points. On paper, the statistics show why Utah State should be favored in this bowl. However, the individual matchups show that this is just too many points to be laying to a solid Toledo team. Toledo RB David Fluellen is a solid runner and has lateral agility to make Utah State

30* graded play on the Georgia Bulldogs as they take on the Alabama Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game set to start at 4:00 PM ET in Atlanta, Georgia. I also like this game to soar over the posted total for a 10* graded amount. Do not play amy parlay with this combination given the risk of the 25* amount. The simulator shows a high probability that Georgia will lose this game by seven or fewer points and has an excellent shot at winning the game. I like adding a 4* amount using the money line and not utilizing a combination bet that would still total 25* units of risk. Despite, the

12-01-12 | Oklahoma State v. Baylor +5 | Top | 34-41 | Win | 100 | 3 h 54 m | Show |
25* graded play on the Baylor Bears as they take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys set to start at Noon ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Baylor will lose this game by five or fewer points and have an excellent shot at winning the game. Given the upset potential, I like playing a combination bet for this game playing a 20* unit plus the points and a 5* unit using the money line. One of the biggest factors for this game is I do not see the Cowboys bouncing back from the annual Bedlam loss last week to Oklahoma. The Cowboys never trailed in the game until the last play of OT when the Sooners ended the game with a FG winning the wild game 51-48. Moreover, this will be the eighth straight game played in as many weeks and the physical and mental fatigue is great by itself, but when slammed with an OT loss in the big rivalry game, it becomes incredibly hard to bounce back. Cowboys are a strong offensive team, but Baylor is a solid 9-2 ATS when facing good offensive teams scoring 31 or more points per game over the last two seasons. Baylor head coach Briles is a solid 12-3 ATS (+8.7 Units) after 2 consecutive games with a turnover margin of +1 or better. Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 35-10 ATS mark for 78% winners since 1992. Play against favorites of 3.5 to 10 points off an extremely close road loss by 3 points or less and with a winning record on the season playing another winning record team. Take Baylor.

25* graded play on Northern Illinois as they take on Kent State in a huge MAC showdown set to start at 7:00 PM ET. This is the MaratThe simulator shows a high probability that Northern Illinois will win this game by 10 or more points. NI has significant advantages in the matchups on both sides of the ball. Kent State has had the best season in school history and is guaranteed to play in their first postseason bowl game since the 1972 Tangerine Bowl. There is a lot more at stake, though as the winner of this game could get an automatic bid to a BCS Bowl game, if the rank 16th or higher in the final BCS standings. NI QB Jordan Lynch ought to be in the Heisman race as he ranks third in the FBS averaging 363 yards of total offense. he has had a game throwing for over 400 passing and another game where he rushed for over 200 yards. He set a FBS record for a QB by gaining 100 or more rushing yards in 10 straight games. Although Kent State has done a very good job defending the run, facing the dual threat of Lynch, who has passed for 23 TD with just 4 interceptions and adds 16 more TD

25* graded play on the Air Force Academy as they take on Fresno State in CFB action set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that AF will lose this game by 14 or fewer points. This is a game on extreme contrasting teams as AF uses the power running attack and FSU chooses to air out with the pass. Although AF is not as prolific on the scoreboard as Fresno, they can control the clock and the pace of play. Moreover, tjhey rank fifth in the nation converting 53.4% of their third down situations and this allow them to move the chains and keep Fresno off the field. Another area I like is when AF will use play action and pass the ball. They rank 123rd nationally passing just 16% of all plays run, but rank seventh in the nation averaging 9.2 yards per pass. This clearly shows that when they do pass, they catch the defense by surprise and Fresno has a tendency to bite on fakes and lack gap discipline when they were facing balanced offensive attacks. AF is coming off a 21-7 win over Hawaii and allowed just 37 rushing yards on 31 attempts. Moreover, they ran the ball 68 times for 338 yards and did not throw one pass in the win. AF is a solid 24-10 ATS (+13.0 Units) in road games after allowing 14 points or less last game since 1992; 20-8 ATS (+11.2 Units) in road games after allowing 100 or less rushing yards last game since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 66-31 ATS mark for 68% winners since 2006. Play on a road team after being beaten by the spread by 21 or more points total in their last three games against opponent after going over the total by 28 or more points total in their last three games. Air Force will cover this huge number easily.

11-24-12 | Oregon v. Oregon State +9.5 | Top | 48-24 | Loss | -105 | 28 h 38 m | Show |
25* graded play on the the Oregon State Beavers as they take on the Oregon Ducks in the Battle of the Civil War with the winner getting the Platypus Trophy. A platypus as a bill like Duck (Oregon) and a tail like a Beaver (Oregon State). This trophy was stolen or lost for more than 40 years, before it was found buried deep in the back of a closet. A bit puzzling that no one knows whose closest it was or whether they were Beaver or Duck fans/graduates. The simulator shows a high probability that Oregon State will lose this game by fewer than eight points and I would not be surprised if they pull off the upset win. Emotionally, Oregon could not be any lower losing their chance at a National BCS Title bid with an overtime loss to conference foe Stanford. Stanford defeated the Ducks with sound execution on both sides of the ball, but their defense was quite disruptive with different looks on nearly every down. Oregon State has a similar defense to Stanford and I strongly believe they will do a great job against the No. 2 ranked scoring offense in the nation. Oregon State defense ranks second in the PAC-12 and 13th nationally allowing 108.7 rushing yards per game. The intangible is clearly that Oregon had much higher aspirations than defeating Oregon State and getting the Platypus Trophy. Having their 23-game streak of scoring 30 or more points broken against a team they were favored by three TD

25* graded play on the Arkansas as they host LSU in SEC action set to start at 2:30 PM ET, Friday, November 22. The simulator shows a high probability that Arkansas will lose this game by fewer than 10 points. LSU had high expectations coming into this season and now they are playing out the slate. They have a very faint shot at reaching the SEC Conference Finals, but need Alabama to lose to Auburn and that is not very likely given that Alabama is favored by 32 points. So, the coaches can preach all they want about the importance of this game, but they and the players know that a shot a BCS bid is not going to happen. Arkansas has had a horrid season with just four wins and have covered just two of the 11 games played. The public is all over LSU based on the flash stats, but the specific matchups actually lend support to an Arkansas upset. LSU barely escaped last week against Mississippi and needed overtime to win 41-35 in a gem they were installed as a 19 point favorite. LSU does not have an elite offense and rely heavily on the power running game. Although, Arkansas ranks 84th allowing 32.1 PPG, they are an excellent run defense unit ranking 24th allowing 3.6 rushing yards per play. They also rank 24th allowing 130.5 rushing yards per game.

25* graded play on the Michigan State Spartans as they host the Northwestern Wildcats set to start at Noon ET. The simulator shows a high probability that MSU will win this game by 10 or more points. The MSU defense will be the dominant force in this game and will contain the Northwestern ground attack. The sim shows that NW will average between 4.0 to 4.5 yards per play and in past games MSU is a solid 25-11 ATS when they have held an opponent to this average range of yards gained per play. Moreover, NW is just 9-21 ATS when they have gained 250 to 300 total offensive yards in a game. MSU struggles on offense, but have one of the best team defenses in the Big Ten conference. Nationally, they rank 11th allowing 16.3 PPG, 6th allowing just 288 yards per game, 13th allowing 4.4 yards per play, 15th allowing opponents to convert just 31% of their third down opportunities. By comparison, the NW defense ranks 43rd allowing 26 PPG, 68th allowing 314 YPG, 45th allowing 5.3 yards per play, and 61st allowing opponents to convert 41% of their third situations. This is a matchup where MSU will be able to effectively move the ball on offense and score far more points than their season average. They key you will see, will be that MSU will not allow NW the same luxury. The MSU will make plays on third down and get off the field and over the course of the game, the MSU OL will steadily wear down the NW defensive front. Take the Spartans.

11-16-12 | Hawaii +22.5 v. Air Force | Top | 7-21 | Win | 100 | 10 h 29 m | Show |
25* graded play on Hawaii as they take on Air Force in CFB action set to start at 9:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Hawaii will lose this game by fewer than 20 points. Air Force is not a balanced offensive attack and rely nearly exclusively on the triple option scheme. They have not been able to take advantage of weak passing defenses and have gone just 13-29 ATS when facing poor passing defenses allowing eight or more passing yards per attempt since 1992. Hawaii is not a strong running team, but here again AF is just 14-28 ATS versus poor rushing teams averaging <=120 rushing yards/game since 1992. Moreover, AF is just 3-16 ATS in home games after scoring 3 points or less in the first half last game since 1992; 7-24 ATS off a loss by 10 points or more to a conference rival since 1992. Hawaii has lost seven straight games and lost everyone to the spread. This does not ever mean that a team is DUE to cover ATS, but it does reflect that the Hawaii bandwagon is near empty and the betting public is all over whoever their opponent is. Nearly 82% of all bets being made are on AF reflecting this irrational exuberance. The line for this game has actually gone counter to the public sentiment showing clearly that the

I also like adding a 5* amount using the money line as an optional wager. Suddenly, the UNC defense riddled with probations has allowed a sea of yardage and points over their last three games.

25* graded play on Texas State as they host Louisiana Tech set to start at 7:00 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that TS will lose this game by 17 or fewer points. LT is having an outstanding season posting an 8-1 record and ranked NO. 20 in the nation. They are coming off an impressive and dominating game defeating UTSA 51-27, but failed to cover installed as 30 point favorites. LT is just 6-17 ATS (-12.7 Units) off a blowout win by 21 points or more over a conference rival since 1992. This is just too many points to give a Texas State team that does possess the talent on offense to make this a game. I am not projecting the win, but I do believe it will be far closer than the current line indicates. LT does not have a solid defense and have been able to mask that weakness by scoring a ton of points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 29-9 ATS for 76% winners since 1992. 50% of these plays covered the spread by seven or more points. Play against road favorites of 10.5 to 21 points with a terrible defense allowing 6.1 or more yards per play. Texas State has nine returning starters on their defensive unit and they have only gotten better with each passing week of the regular season. LT defense ranks 99th in the nation allowing 34.1 PPG, 115th allowing an average of 498 opponent offensive yards, 92nd, allowing 6.0 yards-per-play, and 79th allowing opponent to convert 38% of opponents third down situations.

25* graded play on New Mexico as they take on Wyoming set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that New Mexico will win this game. NM QB B.R. Holbrook is out indefinitely with a shoulder injury, but new Mexico is a extremely dominant running team. NM is also off three straight conference losses, but are 7-0 ATS in home games off three straight losses against conference rivals since 1992. Speaking of running the ball, the sim shows a very high probability that they will gain 300 or more rushing yards. In past games, NM is a 6-2 ATS this season and 17-5 ATS since 1992. The sim shows a strong probability that NM will score 28 or more points. In past games when they have scored 28 or more points they are 4-1 ATS this season and 54-21 ATS since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 26-14 for 65% winners averaging +172 dog and has made 31 units per one unit wagered since 1992. Play against a road team using the money line with an average offensive team gaining between 330 and 390 YPG and is now facing a team with a terrible defense >=440 YPG and after allowing 6.25 or more yards per play in their previous game. Here is a second system that has gone 23-9 for 72% winners and has made 24 units per one unit wagered since 1992. It has averaged a +144 dog play. Play on a road team using the money line and is an average offensive team gaining between 4.8 to 5.6 YPP and is now facing against a team with a terrible defense allowing >=6.2 YPP and after allowing 7.25 or more yards per play in their previous game.

25* graded play on Oregon State as they take on Stanford in a huge Pac-12 showdown set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that OSU will lose this game by four or fewer points and I strongly believe they will win the game. With that said consider a combination bet placing a 17* amount using the line and an 8* amount on the money line to make the most of this betting opportunity. There is nothing wrong with just playing a full 25* on the line and I mention the combination bet as an option for those who share in my confidence that a major upset will take place in this game. The Oregon State defense is goig to create major problems for the Stanford offense. The matchups favor and confirm the sim projection calling for the Cardinal to gain between 100 and 150 net rushing yards. in past games, where the OSR defense has allowed this range of rushing yards, they are a solid 3-0 ATS this season, 6-0 ATS the past three seasons, and 35-11 ATS since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-13 ATS for 77% winners since 2002.

This system has gone a perfect 3-0 ATS this season and is 7-2 ATS over the past three seasons and 13-5 ATS since 2006. There has been a bit of a quarterback issue for OSU as starter Sean Mannion has come back from a knee injury and was largely inconsistent in his start against Washington. Backup QB Cody Vaz does not have the pro stature and big-time arm than Mannion has, but he matches up a whole lot better against Stanford

FSU is one of the best teams in the nation and the rankings clearly show the mismatch this game provides. FSU ranks 11th in the nation averaging 39.9 PPG and rank 8th allowing 15.0 PPG on the season. By comparison, V-Tech ranks 77th averaging just 25.2 PPG and their defense just 53rd allowing 27 PPG. Moreover, FSU ranks best in the nation averaging 7.3 YPP and seventh averaging 0.552 points-per-play. V-Tech defense ranks 50th allowing 5.3 YPP and 53rd allowing 0.368 points-per-play. Tech ranks 55th averaging 5.5 YPP and 76th averaging 0.351 points-per play. The FSU defense ranks second allowing just 3.2 YPP and 6th allowing 0.212 points-per-play. The sim shows a very high probability that FSU will score 28 or more points. In past games, Tech is 0-4 ATS this season, 2-8 ATS the past three seasons, and 11-44 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 28 or more points in a game. Moreover, Tech is a miserable 0-5 ATS the past three seasons and 1-1 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 35 to 41 points in a game.

Toledo gained the 23rd ranking in the AP Top-25 poll this week and marks the first time they have achieved this lofty status in more than 10 seasons. With the ranking also comes the bullseye for opponents to want to defeat them just a bit more. This is has been a very strong conference that has certainly been flying under the national media radar.

25* graded play on Indiana as they take on Iowa in Big Ten action set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Indiana will win this game by four or more points. Simply, Iowa is one of the worst offensive teams and Indiana is a strong offensive unit. Iowa ranks 103rd in the nation averaging just 19.4 PPG, 112th averaging 311.4 YPP, and 68th scoring on 80% of their red zone opportunities. By contrast, Indiana ranks 23rd in the nation averaging 35.7 PPG, 35th averaging 441 YPP, and fifth scoring on 94% of their red zone opportunities. The sim shows a very high probability that Indiana will score more than 28 points in this game. In past games where Iowa gave up 28 or more points they are 0-3 ATS this season, 2-8 ATS the past three seasons, and 16-51 ATS since 1992. The sim also shows that Indiana will have a solid defensive effort allowing Iowa to gain between 4.5 and 5.0 YPP. In past games, Indiana is a solid 16-3 ATS when allowing 4.5 to 5.0 YPP since 1992.

10-27-12 | TCU v. Oklahoma State -6.5 | Top | 14-36 | Win | 100 | 5 h 52 m | Show |
25* graded play on Oklahoma State as they take on TCU set to start at 3:30 PM ET.. The simulator shows a high probability that Oklahoma State will win this game by 10 or more points. My work shows that there is minimal chance that the TCU defensive unit can keep Oklahoma State to fewer than 28 points. In past games when TCU has allowed more than 28 points they are 0-2 ATS this season, 1-6 ATS the past three seasons, and 18-51 ATS since 1992. Fine tuning this scoring to range between 35 and 41 points, TCU is 0-1 ATS this season, 1-3 ATS the past three seasons, and 3-20 ATS since 1992. When the Cowboys have scored 28 or more points they are 21-9 ATS over the past three seasons. Cowboys offense ranks seventh in the nation averaging 351 passing yards per game, eighth averaging 254.3 rushing yards per game, and fourth averaging 45.7 points per game. Their defense ranks 54th allowing 24.7 PPG. They are vastly better unit than this stat reflects knowing the SOS they have played and also that they are on the field quite a bit given the prolific scoring of their offensive teammates. TCU has scored 20 points or more in 33 straight games, which leads the nation, but I strongly believe that streak ends today. Take the Cowboys.

15* graded play on Tennessee as they host Alabama in SEC action set to start at 7:00 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Tennessee will lose this game by 19 or fewer points. This is actually a game that has the potential to go down to the wire. In each of the past six season I have at least one 20 point dog win the game outright or lose in overtime to unsuspecting favorites. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 35-6 ATS for 85% winners since 2002. Play against any team with an incredible defense allowing 4.2 or less yards/play, after allowing 150 or less total yards in their previous game. Of the 41 plays made based on the criteria of this system, 23 of them or 55% covered the spread by seven or more points. I also believe with the sim

15* graded play on Central Michigan as they host Ball State set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Central Michigan will lose this game by three or fewer points and has an excellent shot at winning the game. CM is coming off a poor offensive showing losing 31-13 to Navy where they were installed as a 1 point favorite. However, they are a resounding 27-13 ATS (+12.7 Units) after scoring 14 points or less last game since 1992. The sim projects that CM will score 28 or more points and in past games where they have achieved this measure of offensive success they have posted a 44-17 ATS mark since 1992. Supporting the cover and upset projections is a money line system that has gone 50-21 for 70% winners and has made 35 units per one unit wagered since 2006. Play on a home team using the money line off a home loss by 14 or more points in weeks 5 through 9. Take Central Michigan.

15* graded play on Arizona State as they host oregon in a big Pac-12 showdown on Thursday Night Football set to start at 9:00 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that ASu will lose this game by fewer than 7 points and has an excellent opportunity upset the Ducks. Consider splitting this 15* amount into two parts with a 4* amount using the money line and a 11* amount getting the points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 29-19 for 61% winners and has made a whopping 36 units per one unit wagered since 1992. This system has averaged a +190 dog play and underscores that ASu has a great chance to win the game. Play against a road team using the money line off a home blowout win by 28 points or more and when playing on a Thursday. Th day of the week is extremely important as it changes the length of time teams have to prepare and this clearly favors the ASU defensive front. Here is a second ML system that has gone 43-11 for 80% winners making 35 units per one unit wagered since 2002. - Play on a home team using the money line after allowing 5.5 or less passing yards per attempt in 2 straight games and in a game between two teams with five or less offensive starters returning. I strongly believe that the ASU has the athleticism, speed, and gap discipline to contain and disrupt the flow of the Ducks offensive juggernaut. ASu is the better defense by 116 yards per game in lined games and Oregon has yet to face a defensive front like ASU. WLB Brandon MaGee and Spur LB Chris Young can gain penetration and make the pair of RB (Barner and Thomas) and QB Marcus Mariota, make their first cut behind the line of scrimmage. The formation that Oregon has used to torch defenses has been with Mariota in the gun and flanked by the pair of running backs. This base formation then is executed with a myriad of fakes, misdirections, zone reads, and option runs. However, I do believe that ASU has what it takes to win the battle at the LOS against an offensive line that sometimes is bailed out of mistakes by the elite track speed of their running backs. Take the Sun Devils.

25* graded play on Tennessee as they take on Mississippi State set to start at 9:00 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Tennessee will win this game so getting the three points is an added bonus for sure. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 24-4 ATS for 86% winners since 2006. Play on road teams where the line is +3 to -3 after 2 consecutive games where they forced 3 or more turnovers. This system is a perfect 9-0 ATS spanning the last three seasons. Mississippi State is a perfect 5-0, but their SOS is one of the poorest in the nation. They have played Jackson State, Auburn, At Troy, South Alabama, and at Kentucky. By comparison, Tennessee has been seasoned by some of the best programs in the country in playing NC State, Georgia State, Florida, Akron, and at Georgia. With a 3-2 record, Tennessee knows that is a critical and pivotal game for their season. Win and they are two games from being bowl eligible. A loss puts them in need of three wins against on eof the following teams on the remainder of the schedule: Middle Tenn State, at Alabama, Texas A&M, at LSU, Arkansas, at Ole Mississippi. So, I am certain the coaches have made the team fully aware that a win is a must in this game. Tennessee has a strong offense averaging 39.4 PPG, 23.4 PPG in the first half, and 507 total YPG. By comparison, State has averaged 34.2 PPG, 21.0 points in the first half, 401 total offensive YPG. Now, when you factor in that the SOS of Tennessee has been monumentally stronger that what State has faced you can easily see that Tennessee should roll to a double digit win. Volunteer head coach Dooley is 11-2 ATS (+8.8 Units) off 2 or more consecutive overs in all games he has coached since 1992. Take the Tennessee Volunteers.

10-13-12 | North Carolina -7.5 v. Miami (Florida) | Top | 18-14 | Loss | -106 | 20 h 14 m | Show |
30* graded play on North Carolina as they take on Miami (FL) set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that UNC will win this game by 10 or more points. The Miami defense has been destroyed by opponents this season and I expect the Tar Heels to do the same thing even though this game is in Miami. Tar Heels rank a solid 32nd in the nation averaging 286.3 passing yards per game and 31st gaining an average of 200.3 rushing yards per game. This balanced attacked ranks ninth in scoring at 44.0 PPG. They are also strong on the defensive side of the ball ranking 27th in the nation allowing 17.8 PPG. By comparison, the Miami offense is a pass dominated one. They rank 18th in the nation averaging 307.2 PPG and 90th averaging 134.2 rushing yards per game, and 55th averaging 30.2 PPG. The passing rank is a bit skewed as well, given that quarterback Stephen Morris threw for 566 yards against NC State and 436 yards at Georgia Tech. His other four games he has passed in a range of just 201 to 215 passing yards. Defensively, Miami is horrid, ranking 110th in the nation allowing 39.6 PPG, 122nd allowing 542 yards per game, and 121st allowing 6.9 yards per play. No doubt UNC will have great success against this defense. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 59-30 ATS for 66% winners since 2006. Play on any team that is a dominant team out gaining their opponents by 125 or more yards/game and after gaining 6.25 or more yards per play in 4 consecutive games; 43 of the 59 wins covered the spread by seven or more points. Sim also shows a detailed projection that UNC will score between 35 and 41 points and will gain 500 or more total offensive yards. In past games where UNC has scored 35 to 41 points they are 3-1 ATS the past three seasons and 18-3 ATS since 1992. In games where they gained more than 500 yards they 5-1 ATS over the past three seasons and when scoring 28 or more points are 12-3 ATS over the past three seasons. Take the Tar Heels.

15* graded play on the Washington Huskies as they take on the Oregon Ducks set to start at 10:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Washington will lose this game by fewer than 21 points. Where I really like this game is that Washington will be able to establish the ground attack. Washington runs a mostly balanced offensive scheme. Once they get the ground game going and force the Oregon safeties to move closer to the line of scrimmage, then play action will be open with man coverage on the perimeter and the middle of the field open to the tight end. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 41-16 for 72% winners since 2006. Play on a road team after scoring and allowing 17 pts or less points and now facing an opponent after a playing a game where 60 total points or more were scored. The Washington offense has posted a strong 13.5 yards per point ratio reflecting that the offense is working well and they able to establish scoring drives. They will be playing on turf and Washington has posted a 11.9 yards per point offensive ratio. They have been able to control the clock having the ball 31:25 minutes per game and I think they will exceed 33:00 minutes in this game. The greater the disparity in time of possession favoring Washington, the greater the probability that this game could get very close in the fourth quarter. Take the Huskies.

30* graded play on the Florida Gators as they take on the LSU Tigers set to start at 3:30 in the Swamp. The simulator shows a high probability that Florida will win this game. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 34-12 for 74% winners since 2006. Play on all teams where the line is +3 to -3 and is an average passing team gaining between 175-230 passing yards per game and now facing an average passing defense allowing 175 to 230 passing yards per game and after allowing 5.5 or less passing yards per attempt last game. The Gators have been forcing turnovers and this is a significant reason they are 4-0. Moreover, this strong defensive and special teams play has carried over to the next game. Gators are a solid 10-2 ATS after 2 consecutive games with a turnover margin of +2 or better since 1992. LSU is going to have trouble attacking the Florida defense through the air. The sim shows a high probability that LSU will not gain more than 200 net passing yards in this game. LSU is just 16-34 ATS since 1992 when they have not exceeded the 200 yards net passing yards mark. J.C. Copeland is listed as probable for this game with a leg injury. he is a great lead blocker for the LSU running game, but he is not at a 100% and he has not competed against the speed and athleticism of the Florida defense. Moreover, I saw this unit bring all sorts of different stunts, straight blitzes, and zone blitzes against Tennessee and it had a big impact on their quarter Tyler Bray. he is a much more seasoned QB than LSU

25* graded play on Eastern Michigan as they take on Kent State in a MAC Conference Game set to start at 1:00 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that EMU will lose this game by three or fewer points and will more than likely win this game outright. Consider a combination bet placing a 20* amount on the line and a 5* amount using the money line. The sim alsp shows that the EMU defense will play well and hold Kent State to 21 or fewer points. In past games where they have held an opponent to 15 to 21 points they have gone 3-0 ATS the past three seasons and 13-4 ATS since 1992. Kent State is just 0-3 ATS the past three seasons and 6-17 ATS since 1992 when they have scored between 15 and 21 points in a game.

15* graded play on Florida International as they host Arkansas State set to start at 7:30 PM ET, October 4, 2012. The simulator shows a high probability that FI will win this game by a minimum of three points. Despite being 1-4 they have returned 17 starters while AS has just 10 seasons returners. This chemistry will only improve as new freshman quarterback E.J. Hilliard gets more accustomed to the offensive scheme and speed of D-1 Sun Belt football. He has replaced Medlock due to his ineffectiveness in leading the team and completed just 69 of 119 passes thrown. Hilliard has a great arm and he is now teamed with former Miami Northwestern star wide receiver Wayne Times. Hilliard completed two long passes of 54 yards ot Winston Fraser and 58 yards to Willis Wright. With Hilliard under center, it will stretch the Red Wolves defense forcing the safeties to respect pass first. This will open up the ground attack for the Panthers and I expect to see running backs Rhodes and Mallary have their biggest games of the season. Moreover, AS is just 3-12 ATS in road games vs. poor passing defenses allowing 250 or more passing yards per game since 1992; 6-16 ATS after allowing 3 points or less in the first half last game since 1992; 3-12 ATS (-10.2 Units) after a 2 game home stand since 1992.

Take the points as the money line does not offer any acceptable risk to include in a combination bet. The sim also shows a very high probability that OSU will score 28 or more points. In past games where OSU has scored 28 or more points they are 8-3 ATS over the past three years and 71-22 ATS since 1992. When Arizona has allowed 28 or more points they are just 3-13 ATS over the last three seasons and 18-72 ATS since 1992.

30* graded play on Florida State as they host Wake Forest set to start at 8:00 PM ET. Seminole football is back and they are the best contender to win the BCS, in my opinion. This is a big game for them on their ACC schedule and they know that a huge accomplishment. They are playing with revenge as well. Not, the revenge itself is the factor, but the stakes for this game are so much bigger and I fully expect an even better execution by both offensive and defensive units then we saw against Wake Forest last week. The Seminoles return 17 starters with eight on offense including their QB E.J. Manuel and nine starters on defense. This experience and chemistry cannot be underestimated and will be a dominant reason they win this game in blowout fashion. FSU is 12-3 ATS (+8.7 Units) in home games after gaining 525 or more total yards/game over their last 3 games since 1992. The sim shows a high probability that FSU will win this game by 17 or more points. It further shows that FSU will score at least 28 points in this game. Clemson is just 3-8 ATS the past three years and 15-51 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 28 or more points. Further, Clemson is just 1-5 ATS the past three seasons and 7-22 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 29 to 35 points. The FSU defense is just plain nasty and they will hold Clemson to less than 100 rushing yards. In past games, where Clemson has not gained fewer than 100 rushing yards, they are 2-6 ATS the past three seasons and 14-29 ATS since 1992.

Georgia head coach Richt is just 5-13 ATS (-9.3 Units) when facing mistake free teams posting 42 or less penalty yards per game; 9-18 ATS (-10.8 Units) as a favorite of 10.5 to 21 points. The storyline for this game will be the Vandy offense. We already know that the Vandy defense is perhaps one of the best units in the SEC. I firmly believe this defense will give Georgia a tremendous amount of problems being able to execute a consistent ball-control offensive scheme. Vandu is projected to score between 22 and 28 points. In past games, Vandy is a solid 4-1 ATS the past three seasons and 24-8 ATS since 1992 when they have scored 22 to 29 points in a game. I also would not surprised to see Vandy win this game and shock No. 5 Georgia.

This underscores by personal belief that Auburn will make this a single digit game and that LSU will be in for a much more difficult test than currently expected. LSU head coach Les Miles is coming of 63-14 win over Idaho and covered the 42 point spread. LSU has simply not played any opponent of substance and this is going to hurt them in this road SEC matchup.

09-22-12 | Missouri +10.5 v. South Carolina | Top | 10-31 | Loss | -110 | 28 h 1 m | Show |
25* graded play on the Missouri Tigers as they take on the South Carolina Gamecocks set to start at 3:30 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Missouri will lose this game by fewer than 10 points and may actually win the game in stunning fashion. As an optional consideration, a bet comprised with an 18* amount on the line and 7* amount using the money line offers a tremendous opportunity to capitalize on the upset bid by the Tigers. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 23-4 ATS for 85% winners since 2002. Play against home favorites of 10.5 to 21 points with a good rushing defense allowing 3.25 or less rushing yards per carry and after allowing one or less rushing yards per attempt last game. Of the 27 plays made based on the criterial of this system, 15 of them or 54% covered the spread by seven or more points. This underscores just how close I believe this game will be and the opportunity for the Tigers to upset the Gamecocks. I really like the Missouri pass defense in this matchup and believe they will contain the SC passing attack. The sim shows that SC will gain 200 or fewer net passing yards in this game. In past games, where Missouri allowed 150 to 200 net passing yards, they have posted a 28-18 ATS mark since 1992. Of significant note, is that Missouri QB James Franklin, who missed the last game due to a shoulder injury, will start in this game. SC is coming off a 49-6 beatdown of UAB and this game combined with a 48-10 win over East Carolina has served to inflate this line significantly. However, SC is just 0-6 ATS (-6.6 Units) after allowing 9 points or less last game over the last 3 seasons. Take the Missouri Tigers.

15* graded play on Temple University as they take on the Penn State Lions set to start in Happy Valley at Noon ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Temple will lose this game by fewer than six points. I also believe they will win the game, which would be the first time Temple has defeated Penn State in Happy Valley since 1942. What I love about this game is the Temple defense will contain the Penn State offense. The sim shows a very high probability that PSU will score between 15 and 21 points in this game. In past games, where Temple held an opponent to this range of points they are 3-1 ATS over the past three seasons and 18-4 ATS since 1992. The other matchup where I see Temple dominating is their power run game. The sim shows a high probability that Temple will gain between 200 and 250 rushing yards. In past games where Tempel has gained this range of rushing yards they are 15-5 ATS since 1992. Moreover, I don

The simulator shows a high probability that Kent State will lose this game by fewer than three points and has a great shot at winning the game. The sim shows a detailed projection calling for Buffalo to average between 6.5 and 7.0 passing yards. In past games, this has been good news for backing Kent State as they are a solid 5-1 ATS since 1992. Although a small sample size of two games, Kent State has been far better in the red zone on both sides of the ball than Buffalo. KS has scored on 90.48% of their red zone possessions and the defense has allowed points to be scored by opponents in just 72% of the occurrences.

25* graded play on Boston College as they take on Northwestern set to start at 3:30 PM ET. This is an upset alert and I strongly believe that BC will win this game. They have 10 returning starters on offense including their quarterback and this experienced unit will be matched up against a Northwestern defensive unit that returned just five starters on defense. Moreover, BC returns seven defensive starters for a total of 17 of 22 starting positions from last years team. Northwestern returns just five each on offense and defense for a total of 10 starters .

15* graded play on Virginia as they take on Penn State set to start at Noon ET. The simulator shows a high probability that UVA will win this game by 13 or more points. It is a shame what has happened to the PSU football team and the entire program. I admire their tenacity to march forward and take on all comers. That is a lesson these young men will carry with them the remainder of their lives. yet, they just are not a good team as evidenced by the collapse last week against Ohio University. As much as my heart wants them to win-out despite the losses of some of the best players on the team, it is just not realistic to expect that currently. The sim shows a high probability that UVA will score more than 28 points in this game. In past games where the PSU defense has allowed 28 to 35 points in a game they are 6-18 ATS since 1992. The PSU running game is nearly non-existent going up against this UVA defensive front seven. In past games where PSU has gained between 3.5 and 4.0 rushing yards per attempt they are 0-7 ATS the past three seasons and 7-23 ATS since 1992. Worse is that the passing game is not going to offset the lack of a ground game. In past games where PSU has gained just 5.5 to 6.0 passing yards per attempt they are 0-3 ATS the past three season and 5-15 ATS since 1992. Last when PSU has allowed 28 or more points they are 1-6 ATS over the past three seasons and 8-34 ATS since 1992. Take the Cavaliers.

The simulator shows a high probability that Boise State will lose this game by five or fewer points and has a very realistic opportunity to proven they belong in the Top-10 nationally with an impressive road win. There has been much talk about key personnel that BS lost starting with their quarterback and how MSU is set to go after the Big-Ten Title and to a BCS bowl game. The line more than reflects this fact and in my opinion based on the simulator projections has overshot it by at least six points. BS has been very well prepared at the start of their last four seasons where they have gone 50-3 SU and are 8-0 ATS in road tilts the first half of the season spanning the last three seasons. Even the home field advantage that Boise enjoys and that he artifical turf color is Sky Blue has been used against them.

08-30-12 | South Carolina v. Vanderbilt +7 | Top | 17-13 | Win | 100 | 105 h 49 m | Show |
25* graded play on Vanderbilt as they host South Carolina in the first regular season game and SEC opener for both teams. Football is finally here and this one of the many great matchups for Week 1 of the College Football card. Vanderbilt took a step forward with their football program in 2011. This is arguably one of the best teams Gamecocks head coach Steve Spurrier has had to coach and they are expected to contend in the SEC. Still, this is a sever road test for a Week 1 matchup that will be telecvised nationally with Vanderbilt plenty to prove.
Vanderbilt returns eight starters on offense and seven on defense. Of these eight starters, they have their three best athletes in quarterback Jordan Rodgers, running back Zac Stacy, and playmaking wide receiver Jordan Matthews returning. They did lose key personnel on a defensive unit that ranked 18th in the FBS allowing an average of 323 total yards per game and 29th allowing just 21.6 points per game. Keep in mind these stats were attained the SEC conference. South Carolina returns seven starters on offense led by quarterback Conner Shaw, but their defense will struggle early on this season with just five starters returning. Spurrier is one of the best offensive minds in the game and he will be leaning on Shaw to improve on his already strong numbers from last season. Shaw had a great second half to the 2011 season completing 66% of his passes with 14 touchdowns and just six interceptions. He is also a threat to run the ball scoring eight rushing touchdowns over this span. However, I do believe that the Commodores defense will be able to contain him and to force him into mistakes creating opportunities for turnovers. Simulator Projections and Supporting System Vanderbilt will look to run the ball first, which in turn will set up the play action pass plays. The simulator shows a high probability that Vanderbilt will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a solid money line system that has gone 86-103 for just 46% winners, but has made a whopping 71 units per one unit wagered since 1992. Play on dogs of +155 to +300 using the money line with five or more more defensive starters returning than opponent in games played in the first month of the season. Team chemistry is a vital ingredient for teams looking to get out to fast undefeated starts and in this case Vanderbilt has that advantage and has a great shot at producing the first significant upset of the CFB season. |

30* graded play on Arkansas as they take on Kansas State in the Cotton Bowl set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Arkansas will win this game by 10 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 33-10 ATS for 77% winners since 2005. Play against dogs of 3.5 to 10 points off two straight wins against conference rivals and is a top-level team winning 80% or more of their games and now playing a team with a winning record. There are several game situations that under score the strength of this play. Arkansas is a solid 12-2 ATS (+9.8 Units) off 1 or more straight overs over the last 2 seasons; 10-2 ATS (+7.8 Units) after having won 5 or 6 out of their last 7 games over the last 3 seasons; 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) after allowing 6.25 or more yards per play in their previous game over the last 2 seasons; 6-0 ATS after gaining 100 or less rushing yards last game over the last 2 seasons. Of the following historical situations the simulator shows a very high probability that Arkansas will meet or exceed these conditions. Arkansas is 8-1 ATS when they allow 14 to 21 points in a game spanning the past three seasons; 14-4 ATS when they gain nine or more net passing yards per attempt; 8-2 when they have rushed for 100 to 150 yards spanning the past three seasons; 20-7 ATS when they have scored 28 or more points in a game spanning the last three seasons and 7-3 ATS this season; 5-1 ATS this season, 15-5 ATS the past three seasons when they have gained 6.5 or more total yards per play. Arkansas ranks 13th in the FBS gaining 308 passing yards per game, 78th gaining 138 rushing yards per game, and 14th scoring 37.4 points per game. The defense is better than their 38th ranking of allowing 22.8 points per game. Arkansas junior quarterback Tyler Wilson is 6-3 and 220 pounds and has become a mature and elite passer of the football. He has connected on 63.1% of his 407 pass attempts for 3422 passing yards, 22 touch downs and just six interceptions. This adds up to a solid 148 passer rating. Jarius Wright is the elite senior receiver with 63 receptions and 1029 yards gained and 11 touchdowns. The Warren, AR native is 5-10 and 180 pounds, but is lightning quick and his first step in cuts immediately creates space against the best back in the nation. K-State will be forced to use bracket coverage against him and once Wright sees this, they will go to slant and crossing routes in the vacant middle part of the field. I believe Wright could easily have 10 or more catches in this game. Perhaps the biggest problem facing the K-State defense is how to defend junior TE Chris Gregg, who had 40 catches and 492 yards for a 12.3 yards per catch average. Moreover, he gained 12.1 yards per catch against AP ranked teams and he will a menace for the K-State linebackers to cover in space. Take Arkansas.

Play against all teams with a money line of +135 to -155 off a win over a conference rival as an underdog of 6 or more points with a winning record on the season playing another winning team. This system has gone a perfect 3-0 against the money line this season. You will see and enjoy one of the most under rated quarterbacks in all of college football. Geno Smith is 6-3 and 214 pounds and has transformed a dominant run based program into nam aerial attack that has drove defensive coordinators out of their minds. The quality that stands out most on tape, though, is Smith's poise. He can hang in the pocket, remain oblivious to the rush and deliver an accurate throw while taking a hit. With more than a month of preparation, the entire offensive unit will perform at a very high level. Their offensive line had suffered injuries and

25* graded play on Michigan as they take on Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl set to start at 8:30 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Michigan will win this game by four or more points. Sim shows a very high probability that Michigan will score 28 or more points. In past games where they have scored 28 or more points they are 8-2 ATS this season and 83-38 ATS since 1992. When the Hokies have allowed 28 or more points they are 0-2 ATS this season, 2-6 ATS the past three seasons, and 11-40 ATS since 1992. Michigan is back to their rich tradition of power football on both sides of the ball. They rank 87th in the FBS gaining 187 passing yards per game, 12th gaining 236 rushing yards per game, and 22nd scoring 34.2 [points per game. Defensively they rank 17th allowing 189 passing yards per game, 32nd allowing 129 rushing yards per game, and are seventh in scoring defense allowing just 17.2 points per game. Virginia Tech has a similar brand of football, but not as strong in the rankings as Michigan. The Hokies rank 63rd in the BCS gaining 227 passing yards per game, 30th gaining 189 rushing yards per game, and 53rd scoring 28.5 points per game. Defensively, they rank 38th allowing 206 passing yards per game, 15th allowing 108 rushing yards per game, and eighth in scoring defense allowing 17.2 points per game. In games where both teams played a similar strength of schedule the team rankings can be compared in a meaningful manner. However, Michigan has played a more difficult schedule than Virginia Tech and this skews the team rankings. In order to make them equal I factor in a strength of schedule quotient that is mathematically applied to the team rankings. On a 0-100 scaling with 100 representing a schedule where No. 1 LSU would play themselves 12 straight games since they are ranked No. 1 in the nation, Michigan comes in with a 75 score while Virginia Tech scores at 65 based on strength of schedule. So, this widens the statistical strength of the team rankings more in favor of the Wolverines. I especially, think that the Michigan defense is superior in all positions to Virginia Tech

25* graded play on Florida as they take on Ohio State in the Gator Bowl set to start at 1:00 PM ET., January 2, 2012. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Florida will win this game. The key projection is that Florida will score more than 28 points in this game. In past games where Florida has scored 28 or more points they are 4-1 ATS this season, 17-4 ATS the past three seasons and 111-42 ATS since 1992. Ohio State got away with poor defensive play this season, but no team can continue to play erratic defense and still win games against elite teams. When Ohio State has allowed 28 or more points, they are 3-0 ATS this season, but 9-23 ATS since 1992. I strongly believe that is is a fluke that OSU (or any team) can go 3-0 ATS given up 29 or more points.Florida started off with four tsriaght wins and covers , but then went 2-6 SU and lost eight straight ATS the remainder of the season. The losing ATS streak does not mean that Florida is simple DUE to win, but it does show an adjustment of the line to an extreme that now favors Florida. I know I am in the minority stating that Florida will control the LOS in this game. The Gators have had more than a month of preparation and Ohio State has not played against a team with the speed and athleticism that Florida has on both sides of the ball. Ohio State will look to pound the ball and can use 252-pound FB Zach oBran for those plays. However, Florida has a vastly under rated nose tackle in Jaye Howard, who will mandate double team from OSU

In past games where Northwestern allowed these levels of offensive prowess they have posted an 0-1 ATS mark this season, 1-4 ATS the past three seasons, and 15-33 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 6.5 yards per play; 2-4 ATS this season, 3-10 ATS the past three seasons, and 19-38 ATS since 1992 when they have allowed 6.5 or more yards per play. Texas A&M has posted a 3-1 ATS mark this season, 10-2 ATS the past three seasons, and 40-12 ATS since 1992 when they have gained 6.5 yards per play in past games. Texas A&M is getting some great news with their leading running back Cyrus Gray upgraded to probable for this bowl game. He is 5-10 and 200 pounds and has that rare combination of elite quickness and dominating power. He is playing his last game as an Aggie, being a senior, and I believe will be a strong player on Sundays. The Aggie offensive line has a significant advantage against the undersized Northwestern defensive front. Texas A&M runs one of the best balanced offenses in the country and this will be nearly impossible for the Wildcats to defend. If Northwestern has to bring a safety to help stop the running game, then the play action pass will lead to big gain plays and scores. Take Texas A&M.

12-30-11 | Rutgers v. Iowa State | Top | 27-13 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 8 m | Show |
15 * graded play on Iowa State as they take on Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium starting at 3:20 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Iowa State will win this game. Iowa State has played a vastly tougher schedule and based on those performances they are the superior team on both sides of the ball. Moreover, the Big east is a vastly weaker conference and the fact is that Big East teams are an imperfect 0-5 ATS when facing a non-conference foe off a SU loss this season. I feel strongly that Rutgers will have trouble moving the ball against the Iowa State defense. This is reinforced by the sim projections showing that Rutgers will gain just 4.0 to 4.5 yards per play. In past games where Iowa State has allowed this range of offensive output they are 16-5 ATS since 1992 and 3-0 ATS over the past three seasons. The sim shows that Rutgers will have at least three turnovers - a rare projection with a high probability. In past games where Iowa State has forced three turnovers they are 6-1 ATS over the past three seasons. Take Iowa State

12-29-11 | Washington +10 v. Baylor | Top | 56-67 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 41 m | Show |
25* graded play on Washington as they take on Baylor in the Alamo Bowl set to start at 9:00 PM ET. I also recommend a combination bet playing 21* getting the points and then a 4* amount using the Money Line. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Washington will lose this game by fewer than nine points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 29-34 using the money line and has made an incredible 48.4 units per one unit wagered since 1992. The average play has been a plus 285 DOG play. Play against neutral field favorites using the money line that is a solid team outgaining their opponents by 75 or more yards per game and after gaining 6.75 or more yards per play in their previous game. Sim shows a high probability that Washington will score 28 or more points in this game and will gain a minimum of 6.5 yards per play. In past games where Washington has scored 28 or more points they are 7-1 ATS this season, 14-3 ATS the past three seasons, and 7-34 ATS since 1992. When they gain 6.5 or more yards per play they have posted a 5-1 ATS mark this season, 10-1 ATS the past three seasons, and 26-11 ATS since 1992. In past games where Baylor has allowed 28 or more points they are 5-4 ATS this season, 6-16 ATS the past three season, 41-93 ATS since 1992. When they also 6.5 or more yards per lay they are 3-3 ATS this season, 2-8 ATS the past three seasons, and 17-47 ATS since 1992. This Baylor team is a strong one, but I refer back to my 25* CFB Game of the Year winner where Kansas installed as a 24 point dog tool Baylor to OT and it took a heroic comeback by RG3 to just get the game into overtime. Steve Sarkisian is an excellent preparing of his football team when having more than one week to prepare posting a perfect 6-0 ATS mark. Washington quarterback Price is the healthiest he has been than at any time over the last three months. He has a very strong and accurate arm and he has the weapons to assault the Baylor secondary. The best weapon and the one I see as a complete mismatch is with Baylor

12-29-11 | Notre Dame v. Florida State -3.5 | Top | 14-18 | Win | 100 | 7 h 34 m | Show |
15* graded play on Florida State as they take on Notre Dame set to start at 5:30 PM ET in the Florida Citrus Bowl. During the preseason many analysts, including myself, were thinking that this matchup would be a BCS Bowl game. However, both teams have modestly under performed expectations with each team sporting 8-4 records. As is always the case in South Bend, anything short of a BCS bowl game is considered a mediocre season. FSU is on the rise and have had two strong recruiting classes since the transition from the legend Bobby Bowden to Jimbo Fisher. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that FSU will win this game by four or more points. Seminoles rank fourth in the FBS allowing just 15.2 points per game, 19th allowing 193 passing yards per game, and second allowing 82 rushing yards per game. Kelly is just 5-19 ATS (-15.9 Units) versus excellent defensive teams allowing <=285 yards/game since 1992. No doubt, I see FSU defensive front dominating the Notre Dame offensive line and blowing up plays that take more than 2.5 seconds to be attempted. Notre Dame has issues with quarter as Tommy Rees just never earned the starting job this season. Problem is that he does not make good reads and not near quick enough. Coach kelly will be forced to use quick three step drops and then this allows FSU to jump routes. I would not be surprised to see FSU with a pick-6 in this game. The FSU rotates four positions and are able to stay completely fresh long into the fourth quarter and this group will wear down the offensive line. Take The Seminoles.

12-28-11 | California v. Texas -3.5 | Top | 10-21 | Win | 100 | 9 h 36 m | Show |
25* graded play on Texas as the take on California set to start at 8:00 PM ET in the Holiday Bowl. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Texas will win this game by four or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 33-12 ATS for 73% winners since 2005. Play against any team off a big road win scoring 38 or more points with the game taking place in the second half of the season including bowl games. 22 of these plats made based on the criteria of the system, or 49%, covered the spread by seven or more points.
The Texas defense ranks 14th in the nation overall and was first in the Big-12. They were lit up in their last game, but by Heisman Trophy winner RG3 (Robert Griffin III). I think that game simply an aberration and Texas will have had weeks to prepare for a solid California offensive attack. Cal is led by quarterback Zack Maynard and running back Iso Safely, who were largely responsible for the team winning three of the last four games this season. Their offensive scheme will look to take what the Texas defense will give them, which will be underneath routes, slants, and drags. Texas will play a base cover-2 and not allow any deep vertical routes to get behind them. Mack Brown believes the Texas running game will get back to the strength shown in mid -season with the return of many players that were out due to injury. He has them working very hard and will have three straight days of intense strenuous practices Sunday through Tuesday December 20. They will then back off steadily as the bowl game approaches and this shows how serious Mack Brown is to finish the season with a bowl win. I do expect Texas to establish the run and use more varied formations and misdirection running plays looking to get a quick Cal defense out of their gap disciplines. The return of a healthy Malcolm Brown will be key to this execution. The last four weeks of the season, Texas played without many of their offensive weapons. Running back Jaxson Shipley was out for three straight games and returned wearing a knee brace that limited his agility, but he played in pain nonetheless. Fozz Whittaker was lost for the season in a horrific ACL knee injury against Missouri. Freshman Joe Bergeron played well in their absence gaining 327 yards in wins over Texas Tech and Kansas, but then fell to a hamstring injury limiting him to just nine more carries the rest of the regular season. With all, but Whittaker back in the stable of Texas running backs. The Longhorns will have a strong running game. They then can use play action to attack the seems and the middle of the field with ball control-type pass routes. This will end up being a game of field position.Game situations favor Texas in this game too noting that Cal head coach Tedford is a miserable 4-13 ATS after a game with a turnover margin of +3 or better. Mack Brown is a solid 22-9 ATS after a game with a turnover margin of -2 or worse as the coach of Texas. Moreover, Cal is just 2-10 ATS (-9.0 Units) in road games after a game where they committed 1 or less turnovers over the last 3 seasons. Take Texas as second TOP RATED 25* Titan winner. |

12-03-11 | Michigan State v. Wisconsin -9.5 | Top | 39-42 | Loss | -105 | 31 h 34 m | Show |
25* graded play on Wisconsin as they tame on Michigan State in the Big Ten Championship game. This marks the second time in as many weeks that I have released a 25* Titan play on Wisconsin. In my opinion, they are one of the best teams in the nation right now and actually would be a formidable opponent for any of the Top-5 BCS teams. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Wisconsin will win this game by 10 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 32-9 ATS for 78% winners since 2005. Play against dogs of 3.5 to 10 points that are off two straight wins against conference rivals and is a top-level team winning 80% or more of their games and now playing a team with a winning record. Equally impressive is the fact that of the 41 plays made based on the criteria of this system, 27 of them or 64%, covered the spread by seven or more points. This under scores my belief that this will turn into another Badger blowout win. My 25* Titan last week saw Wisconsin destroy Penn State 45-7 and this puts the Badgers into another strong system. This system has gone 63-28 ATS for 69% winners since 2000. Play on favorites of 3.5 to 10 points in conference games that are off a huge blowout win by 35 points or more over a conference rival. If we throw out the betting line range to include all teams the results improve to 37-12 for 76% winners. The sim shows a very high probability that the Badgers will score more than 28 points. In past games where the Spartan defense has allowed 28 or more points they have posted a 1-1 ATS record this season, 2-10 ATS mark the past three seasons, and 23-68 ATS since 1992. Wisconsin is also playing with revenge having lost to the Spartans 37-31 and were installed as seven point favorites October 22. Badgers quarterback Russell Wilson had his worst game the season that day. He has thrown just three interceptions on the season and two of them occurred against the Spartans. The one interception just sailed on him and the second was trying to make a forced throw and get his Badgers into scoring position trailing in the second half. He is a vast student of the game and those mistakes will not be made this time around. Moreover, I do not see MSU having the run stop success they enjoyed in the first game. There are few teams in the nation right now that can stop the Badger pounding running game between the tackles led by Montee Ball. By forcing the MSU linebackers to squeeze toward the tackles for run support will set up

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that UCLA will lose this game by 31 or fewer points. This is just two many points given that I am confident that UCLA will get a strong running game established early in this game. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-16 for 73% winners since 1992. Play on road dogs of 21.5 or more points after scoring 9 points or less last game and now facing an opponent after a playing a game where 60 total points or more were scored.

15* graded play on UL-Lafayette as they take on Arizona set to start at 4:00 PM ET. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that UL Lafayette will lose this game by 11 or fewer points. Arizona has had a disappointing season and their defense has been shredded by many teams. LAL has done well against 'giving' defenses posting a 7-0 ATS in road games facing poor passing defenses allowing a completion percentage of 58% or worse over the last three seasons. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 34-9 ATS mark for 79% winners since 1992. This system has also produced a perfect 8-0 ATS spanning the past five seasons. Play on road dogs that are poor rushing team gaining 100 to 140 rushing yards per game and now facing an average rushing defense allowing 140 to 190 rushing yards per game and after 7 or more games and a game involving two non-conference foes. The sim projects that Arizona will have at least three turnovers in this game; not surprising for a poor record team. In past games where LAL has forced three or more turnovers in a game they are 4-1 ATS this season and 6-1 ATS the past three seasons. I stronly believe this game will go down to the wire. Take LA-Lafayette.

25* graded play on Wisconsin as they host Penn State starting at 3:30 PM ET. The winner of this game will play in the Big Ten Championship next week. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Wisconsin will win this game by 15 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 30-6 ATS mark for 83% winners since 2000. Play against road dogs off a win over a conference rival as an underdog of 6 or more points against opponent off a win by 10 points or more over a conference rival. Of the 36 plays ,made based on the criteria of this system, 21 of them or 58%, covered the spread by seven or more points. This system has gone an amazing 17-1 ATS over the past five seasons and 12-0 ATS over the past three seasons. The sim shows a high probability that Wisconsin will score 28 or more points in this game. In past games where Penn State has given up 28 or more points they are 1-4 ATS over the past three seasons and 8-32 ATS since 1992. The sim shows that the Wisconsin defense will do extremely well at containing the Penn State rushing attack. The Lions are projected to average just 3.5 to 4.0 rushing yards per carry. In past games where PSU has attained this range of rushing they are 0-3 ATS this season, 0-6 ATS the past three seasons and 7-22 ATS since 1992. PSU defense has played very well this season and have allowed only Alabama, who scored 27 points, and Northwestern, who scored 24 points, to score more than 20 points in a game. However, this Wisconsin offensive line is going to wear down Penn State in this game. I fully expect Wisconsin to dominate the line of scrimmage. Further supporting this graded play are game situations noting that Wisconsin is a solid 16-3 ATS (+12.7 Units) off 2 or more consecutive unders since 1992; 11-2 ATS (+8.8 Units) in home games after allowing 17 points or less in 3 straight games since 1992; 10-1 ATS (+8.9 Units) in home games after a game with a turnover margin of +3 or better since 1992.

11-25-11 | Arkansas v. LSU -11.5 | Top | 17-41 | Win | 100 | 5 h 35 m | Show |
25* graded play on LSU as they take on Arkansas set to start at 2:30 PM ET. As we know, the top three team sin the nation based on the BCS ranking snot only come form the same conference. But also the same WEST division of the SEC Conference. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that LSU will win this game by 14 or more points. LSU is simply going to wear down Arkansas on both sides of the ball as the game progresses. The LSU offensive line has a significant advantage in strength and size. What they do very well in the power running game, and few teams execute this any better, is that their offensive scheme forces the opposing line backers to get off of TWO blocks to get to the ball carrier. The Tigers run a ton of isolation plays out of I-formations with the fullback targeting the middle line backer. On these plays you will see the front-side guard and center will double team on of the defensive tackles and allow the fullback a clean path to the MLB. In other assignments the offensive guard will bump a defensive tackle and immediately get the to the second level and square up against an undersized line backer and then look to block a third linebacker that is converging to the hole. This too, allows the fullback to get the linebacker forcing him to get off his second block of the play. Obviously, with so many defenders constantly having to fight through two blocks is exhausting. The LSU defense is a great one. Arkansas has elite receivers that can gain separation easily and quickly, but when matchups up against the depth of the LSU corners that is all neutralized. LSU will use press coverage to disrupt the flow of the Arkansas offensive scheme and look to force receivers into route changes often. Keep a watch on LSU corner Mathieu as I strongly believe he will be going up against the Razorbacks best receiver in Joe Adams. Mathieu is one of the few in the country that can close on Adams, who is extremely quick and can get clean breaks off the line of scrimmage. If Adams impact on the game is minimized, it could be a complete blowout by half-time. Further supporting this graded play are game situations noting that LSU is a solid 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) after outgaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in their previous game this season; 8-1 ATS (+6.9 Units) off a win by 10 points or more over a conference rival over the last 3 seasons; 7-1 ATS (+5.9 Units) after allowing 14 points or less last game this season. The sim shows a high probability that LSU will gaining between 4.5 and 5.0 rushing yards per carry. In past games where they have achieved this offensive level they are 4-0 ATS this season, 6-2 ATS the past three seasons, and 25-8ATS since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 28-6 ATS mark since 2000. Play against a road team after outgaining opp by 225 or more total yards in their previous game and facing an opponent after gaining 6.75 or more yards/play in 2 consecutive games. This system is 6-1 ATS this season. Take the LSU Tigers.

15* graded play on Tulsa as they host Houston set to start at noon ET. PM. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Tulsa will win this game. There is limited opportunity expand this wager and make it a combination bet involving the money line. My strong recommendation is stay with a 15* play getting the points. Enjoying its highest ranking in more than 21 years, No. 8 Houston seeks a single-season school-record 12th consecutive victory as it visits Tulsa on Friday with a spot in the Conference USA title game on the line. Houston's quarterback Keenum, the NCAA's career leader in passing yardage (17,855), total offense (18,771) and touchdown passes (145), broke the FBS record for completions (1,427) last Saturday, completing 30 of 45 passes for 318 yards and a TD in a 37-7 rout of SMU. The SMU game was far closer than the score ended and I believe they provided the recipe to contain the Houston attack. Very few teams in the FBS have the personnel to completely shut down the Cougar offense, but by playing a mix of underneath man/zone and bracketing the perimeter has shown to be effective. The bottom line is that the winner of this game will gain the right to play in the C-USA Championship game next week. Tulsa has a high powered attack of their own and Houston is just 2-12 ATS (-11.2 Units) in road games when facing good passing teams averaging 8 or more passing yards per attempt since 1992; 1-10 ATS (-10.0 Units) in road games facing very good offensive teams scoring 34 or more points per game since 1992. Tulsa has done very well against the elite passing teams sporting a perfect 9-0 ATS (+9.0 Units) facing good passing teams with a completion percentage of 58% or better over the last two seasons. Moreover, Tulsa is 8-0 ATS (+8.0 Units) after gaining 475 or more total yards/game over their last 3 games spanning the last 2 seasons. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 28-6 ATS mark for 82% winners since 2000.

15* graded play on Miami (Ohio) as they take on Ohio University in MAC Conference action set to start at 7:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Miami will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 85-45 for 65% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after 1 or more consecutive straight up losses facing an opponent after four or more consecutive straight up wins. Of the 129 plays made based on the criteria of this system, 52 of them or 40% of them covered the spread by seven or more points. This under scores my belief that Miami can win this game. With a win the Bobcats can get to nine wins, which has occurred just six times in school history. Even with a loss, they would then have identical records with Temple and kent State, but the Bobcats defeated both of them and as a result would win the three-team tie breaker. This is the 88th time to the two schools have competed in the Battle of the Bricks game. Although it is Senior Day, I am very concerned that Ohio may fall flat in this game knowing that are playing for the MAC Title. Miami is a solid 18-6 ATS (+11.4 Units) when playing against a good team winning between 60% to 75% of their games since 1992. Take the Redhawks.

25* graded play on Texas as they host Kansas State set to start 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Texas will win this game by 10 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 24-5 ATS for 80% winners since 2000. Play against road dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in conference tilts and are excellent offensive teams scoring >=34 points per game and now facing an average defensive team allowing 21 to 28 points per game and after 7+ games have been completed in the regular season. 50% of these plays covered the spread by seven or more points. Texas is coming off a tough loss to Missouri where they were missing several key players and the rushing game suffered. Texas ranks 15th in the FBS rushing the ball. Fozzy Whittaker suffered a season-ending knee injury after tearing two ligaments in the first quarter last Saturday. Meanwhile, leading rusher Malcolm Brown (toe) and Joe Bergeron (hamstring) also missed the game. Brown is doubtful for this game and I expect Bergeron to play tonight based on public reports released Friday. Texas is very deep at running back and I am not concerned simply because the Texas offensive line has a massive advantage against K-State

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Navy will win this game by 7 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 34-10 ATS for 77% winners since 2000. This system has produced a 17-3 ATS record for 85% winners spanning the past five seasons. Play on any team after outrushing opponent by 150 or more yards in 2 straight games facing an opponent after being out rushed by 150 or more yards last game. Of the 44 plays made based on this remarkable system, 23 of them or 55% covered the spread by seven or more points. This under scores my strong belief that Navy will win this game by double digits. The sim shows a very high probability that Navy will gain 300 or more rushing yards in this game. In past games where they have gained 300 or more rushing yards they have gone 4- ATS this season, 11-6 ATS the past three seasons, and 56-24 ATS since 1992. The strong running attack will open easy to execute pass plays using play action. Navy may only throw the ball 10 times, but the sim shows that they will average better than 9.0 yards per attempt. In past games where Navy has attained this passing level they have gone 3-1 ATS this season, 13-5 the past three seasons, and 55-16 ATS since 1992. Take Navy.

11-19-11 | Clemson v. North Carolina State +8 | Top | 13-37 | Win | 100 | 7 h 5 m | Show |
15* graded play on NC State as they host Clemson set to start at 3:30 PM ET. It certainly looks like the BCS standings are going to be vastly different come Sunday Night with Iowa State knocking off No. 2 Oklahoma State, which was a 15* winner for us last night. This game has the strong potential to add to what will be an upset Saturday to remember for the ages. I also have a 5* graded play on Southern Cal, who I think may win SU at Oregon. Although these upsets may occur, it probably only further cements the rematch of Alabama against LSU in the BCS Championship - unless of course LSU slips up. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that NC State will lose this game by seven or fewer points. I would also recommend a 3* play using the Money line as an optional wager. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 50-19 ATS for 73% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points with an opportunistic defense forcing 2.5 or more turnovers per game and after two consecutive game where they committed one or less turnovers. Supporting the upset bid that I believe will happen in this game are a pari of MONEY LINE situations. Note that Clemson is 1-7 against the money line (-12.1 Units) in road games after 1 or more consecutive losses against the spread over the last 3 seasons. NC State is a solid and impressive 10-2 against the money line (+8.1 Units) after allowing 14 points or less in 2 straight games since 1992; 27-11 against the money line (+20.6 Units) in home games after failing to cover the spread in 2 out of their last 3 games since 1992. Take NC State.

15* graded play on Wake Forest as they take on Maryland set to start at 3:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Wake Forest will win this game by 11 or more points. The sim shows a high probability that Wake will score 28 or more points. In past games where Wake has scored 28 or more points they are a solid 4-1 ATS this season, 8-4 ATS the past three seasons, and 46-26 ATS since 1992. Maryland has been horrible when they have allowed 28 or more points posting an 0-7 ATS mark this season, 4-15 ATS mark the past three seasons, and 25-71 ATS since 1992. The sim shows a high probability that Wake will out gain Maryland by 100 to 150 offensive yards. In this situation, the Terrapins are just 0-2 ATS this season. 1-3 ATS the past three seasons, and 3-16 ATS since 1992. Take Wake Forest.

25* graded play on Central Michigan as they take on Toledo set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that CM will lose this game by 14 or fewer points and I would recommend a 2.5* amount on the money line, if available to you. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 78-30 making 45 units per one unit wagered since 2000. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points in conference games and with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. Of the 118 plays made based on the criteria of this system, 49 of them or 46%, covered the spread by seven or more points. Now, here is a remarkable money line system that has gone just 67-77 for 47% winners, but has made a whopping 67.5 units per on unit wagered since 2000. The average play has been a sizable +216 dog play. Play against road favorites using the money line after allowing 9 or more passing yards per attempt in their last game and with an experienced QB returning as starter. The simulator shows a high probability that CM will score 28 or more points and gain 6.0 to 6.5 total yards per play. In past games CM is a solid 11-3 against the money line (+10.7 Units) when they gain 6 to 6.5 total yards per play since 1992. Moreover, in past games where Toledo has allowed 28 or more points they have gone 1-4 ATS this season, 5-14 ATS the past three seasons, and 20-53 ATS since 1992. In past games when CM scored 28 or more points they are 1-2 ATS this season, but 10-4 ATS the past three seasons, and a very strong 43-15 ATS since 1992. Take Central Michigan.

15* graded play on Texas A&M as the take on K-State set to start at 3:30 PM ET My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Texas A&M will win this game by seven or more points. Supporting this graded play is a money line system that has produced a 65-45 making 49 units per one unit wagered since 2005. Play on a road team using the money line in conference games and with 5 or more defensive starters returning than opponent.

11-12-11 | Baylor v. Kansas +20.5 | Top | 31-30 | Win | 100 | 20 h 35 m | Show |
25* graded play on Kansas as they take on Baylor set to start at 2:00 PM ET. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Kansas will lose this game by fewer than 17 points and that this game will be extremely close throughout. Over the 18-years I have been handicapping sports, you all have seen some of the plays in CFB that are 10 plus dogs actually win the game. This is potentially one of those situations, however I have not seen any money lines posted. If you do have a chance, place a 3* amount on that line, which obviously will be extremely high. Supporting the 10* 'Over' play is a system that has produced a 29-7 record for 81% winners since 1992. Play 'over' with any team against the total after scoring and allowing 30 points or more last game and now facing an opponent after a playing a game where 24 total points or less were scored. Further supporting this graded play are game situations showing that Kansas will have an easy time scoring 28 or more points. In past games where Baylor has allowed 28 or more points they have gone a horrid 5-14 ATS the past three seasons and 39-92 ATS since 1992. Moreover, Baylor is a weak 6-17 ATS (-12.7 Units) after allowing 225 or more rushing yards in 2 straight games since 1992. I do believe Kansas will be very successful running the ball against the Baylor run defense that ranks 104th in the FBS. Another key component to this game is that I expect Kansas to have a commanding edge in time-of-possession and this keeps the 5th ranked Baylor passing attack off the field. Baylor's very weak defense has been masked by the strong offensive output. The stats are skewed that in many games Baylor had a big lead and the opponent was made into a one dimensional passing attack. In their last game they defeated Missouri 42-39 and allowed 578 total yards. Of those total yards, 253 were gained on the ground in 40 attempts. In four of the last five games, Baylor has allowed 200 or more rushing yards. Baylor ranks 113th in the FBS allowing 36.8 points per game. In the past teams that have allowed more than 30 points per game and allow more than four yards per rush on the season and are off a game allowing more than 30 points are a dismal 11-31 ATS. If this team is a double digit road favorite and the 'dirty' home dog is seeking revenge those teams have gone just 1-14 ATS. Granted, Kansas' defense ranks slightly worse, but they have the much better running game that will sustain drives. Moreover, Kansas played their best defensive game of the year losing to Iowa State 13-10 last week and that positive momentum will carry over to this week's game. I truly believe that the 48th ranked Kansas rushing attack will dominate the Baylor defensive front that is vastly under sized and has been dominated in all conference games this season. Take Kansas as a 25* Titan play and 'over' as a 10* Titan Play.

15* graded play on Colorado as they take on Southern Call in Friday Night Pac-12 action set to start at 9:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Colorado will lose this game by 20 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 76-27 ATS for 74% winners since 2000. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points in conference games and with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. Of the 103 plays made based on the criteria of this system 48 of the or 48% covered the spread by seven or more points. This system is 5-1 ATS for 83% winners. Adding a criteria that has this home dog coming off a game where they allowed eight or more passing yards per attempt has produced a 43-15 ATS mark over the past 11 seasons and has gone 3-1 ATS this season. Colorado has been decimated by injuries this season, but WR Paul Richardson and RB Rodney Stewart will be playing in this game. Richardson is the leading receiver on the team with 29 catches and five touchdowns on the season. Stewart is the leading ground gainer with 473 rushing yards and a 4.1 yards per carry average and is the second leading receiver with 28 catches for a 15.5 yards per catch average. This is the key to Colorado competing against the Trojans. Usig Stewart out of the backfield or in the slot position and hitting him with high percentage ball control pass plays. He has the quickness to be difficult to bring down in space. Moreover, these drop-off passes serve to minimize the SC defensive blitz pressure. Take the Buffalos.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Duke will lose this game by 14 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 74-27 ATS for 73% winners since 2000. Play on home underdogs of 10.5 to 21 points in conference games with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. Of the 101 plays made based on the criteria of this system 47 of them or 48% covered the spread by seven or more points. This underscores my belief that this will be a single digit game. Adding another criteria to this system has produced a 42-15 ATS mark for 74% winners since 2000. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points after allowing 8 or more passing yards per attempt last game and with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. The sim shows a high probability that Duke wills core between 21 and 28 points in this game. In past games where Tech has allowed this range of points they are 0-1 ATS this season, 1-3 ATS the past three seasons, and 9-22 ATS since 1992. Duke is 11-3 ATS (+7.7 Units) after a game where they forced 1 or less turnovers over the last 3 seasons. Duke quarterback Renfree will play in this game. He is recovering from a hip injury noted Wednesday, but not one that is going to prevent him playing at his best. He has completed 68% of his passes for 1800 yards and five touchdowns. He has very good accuracy on short ball control routes and these plays will eke the Hokies pressure at bay. Duke ranks 28th best in the FBS gaining 286.9 passing yards per game and I believe they have the favorable matchups to make this a very close escape for the Hokies. Take Duke.

25* graded play on BYU as they take on TCU set to start at 8:00 PM ET. I also like splitting this 25* amount into a 20* getting the points and a 5* using the money line. Have to admit, not many sports fans will be tuning into this game except during the commercials of the World Series Game 7. Yet, this is a very strong money making opportunity that can take care of itself while you enjoy Game 7. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that BYU will lose this game by 10 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 29-32 making 50.4 units per one unit wagered since 1992. Play against neutral field favorites using the money line that are out gaining their opponents by 75 or more yards per game and after gaining 6.75 or more yards per play in their previous game. This is a tremendous system that has averaged a +285 DOG play. BYU is a perfect 8-0 ATS (+8.0 Units) after out gaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in their previous game over the last 2 seasons; 9-1 ATS (+7.9 Units) after allowing 100 or less rushing yards last game over the last 2 seasons; 12-3 ATS (+8.7 Units) in road games off a home blowout win by 28 points or more since 1992. The opponent was Idaho State, but BYU did win 56-3 and covered the 43 points spread making all of the aforementioned situations valid as outlined. Moreover, BYU has gained 200 or more rushing yards in four straight games and have held four of the last five opponents to less than 81 yards rushing. TCU had a scrimmage last week defeating arguably the worst team in the nation, New Mexico, 69-0 and covered the 44
