It took Houston pitcher Gerrit Cole less than an hour after the Astros lost Game 7 of the World Series to announce he was a free agent. Now the question is, who will pay for the talented right-hander? Cole was 20-5, with an ERA of 2.50 in 33 games with […]
The Rice Owls (0-9) lost 20-7 to the Marshall Thundering Herd (6-3) to stay winless and remain in last place in the West Division of Conference USA. With the loss, Rice continued their leading bid as the worst team in college football. Dating back to 2017, Rice is 3-31 with […]
It’s been nearly a week, and apparently, the Kyle Busch-Aric Almirola, and Denny Hamlin-Joey Logano feuds are blowing right into this week’s race at Texas Motor Speedway. The four drivers had incidents at Martinsville last Sunday, and then spent this week chirping at their respective adversaries. Usually, on-track incidents are […]
Two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference squared off on Friday Night. The Washington Capitals (10-2-3) and their highly-productive power play defeated the Buffalo Sabres, 6-1, to become the first team in the NHL to win 10 games. With 23 points, the Caps and their deadly power play […]
In the latest NBA injury update, Steph Curry had successful surgery on his broken left hand, and the Golden State Warriors All-Star guard will miss up to three months. The Warriors championship odds, which were 12/1 at the start of the season, plummeted to 200/1 according to William Hill. Curry […]
The Packers-Chargers game is a study in two teams going in different directions. That is why with my One Bet, $100 I will be taking Green Bay and giving away 3.5 points. Last week I took the under in the Denver-Indianapolis game and covered easily. This week I’m equally confident […]
A month ago, Florida head coach Dan Mullen might not have had as much confidence in his offensive line as he does entering Saturday’s game against Georgia. The Gators skipper criticized his front five loudly, and often, earlier this season. Even though the team was 5-0 through October, the head […]
The Fresno State Bulldogs (3-4) fly down to Honolulu to battle the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (5-2) in a Mountain West After Dark matchup, and the last scheduled game on this Saturday’s college football slate. This week’s version of the Mountain West After Dark with Fresno State and Hawaii is also […]

Colorado is set to become the most recent state to legalize sports betting — with a ballot referendum putting the issue directly to its citizens. Voters head to the polls Tuesday, and one of the issues on the ballot is Proposition DD, which would establish legal sports wagering as a […]
Canelo Alvarez will look to win a world title in his fourth weight class on Saturday when he meets WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Alvarez has traditionally been a middleweight boxer – he still holds the WBA and WBC titles in that […]
In a rare occurrence for its pay-per-view events, there won’t be a world championship on the line at UFC 244 in Madison Square Garden this Saturday. Even so, there will still be some hardware up for grabs when Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz meet up in the main event. Masvidal […]
The ATP Finals are fast approaching, and the best tennis players in the world are headed to London to claim the season’s final prize. But do you know enough about the tour’s flagship tournament, and what makes it different from all the rest? The event is second only to the […]
Two nationally ranked college football teams in the American Conference square off on Saturday, with the #15 SMU Mustangs (8-0) visiting the #24 Memphis Tigers (7-1) who are set on spoiling the Mustangs’ march toward a perfect record. SMU is having its best season since the infamous Pony Express days […]
During NFL Week 9 action, a half-dozen teams are home dogs, including a marquee matchup between Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens hosting the undefeated New England Patriots. This week’s Home Dog Alert also includes the Jacksonville Jaguars (in London), Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, LA Chargers, New York Giants, and […]
In a week where we see Christian McCaffrey priced up to $10,000 and Dalvin Cook at $9,500 on DraftKings, we definitely need to find some sub-$5,000 DFS value plays to fill out a competitive roster. Fortunately, there are opportunities to get solid players at cheap salaries at most positions. Here’s […]
When Brooks Koepka said he didn’t believe Rory McIlroy was a rival, it wasn’t based on arrogance. It also wasn’t sour grapes for losing out on the PGA Tour Player of the Year award to the Irishman. Instead, Koepka’s assessment of McIlroy was based on major championships. McIlroy’s last major […]
Toronto FC has reached its third MLS Cup final in four years after defeating defending champion, Atlanta United, 2-1 in the Eastern Conference final. Toronto will take on the Seattle Sounders in the MLS Cup final, just as they did in their last two appearances, with the two sides splitting […]
Martinsville ignited a couple of incidents last Sunday, with Kyle Busch and Aric Almirola tussling on the track while Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin got feisty on pit row. The Busch-Almirola feud began on Lap 361 when the two made contact in Turn 3. Almirola then bumped Busch in the […]
Kansas State-Kansas has been a one-sided rivalry for a decade, and should continue that trend on Saturday. That’s why I’m selecting Kansas State with this week’s One Bet, $100, and giving away six points. Last week was a disaster, and taught me once again that Wisconsin is not my friend. […]
