At first glance on the betting sheet, the Dallas-New Orleans contest has all the appearances of a trap game. The Cowboys, who are 3-0, are facing a Saints team without starting quarterback Drew Brees. Surely, the line should be more than 2.5 points. Not so fast, though. Brees’ replacement, Teddy […]
The Buffalo Bills haven’t had much success against the New England Patriots. Not only in victories, but also in scoring points. Because of that, I am taking the under in the Buffalo-New England game for this week’s One Bet, $100 selection. The over/under is at 42, though BetMGM in New […]

For Week 4 of NFL DFS, I’m concentrating on a few expected shootouts featuring teams where defenses go to die, along with a value play sprinkled in here and there. Russell Wilson, in particular, looks to be in a great spot this week. Quarterbacks Russell Wilson, Seahawks ($6,100 on DraftKings, […]
Saturday’s slate features the most dynamic DFS player in college football right now – Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts. He, along with a few others, are must-plays over the weekend. Quarterbacks Jalen Hurts, Oklahoma ($9,200 on DraftKings, $11,000 on FanDuel) – When examining a DFS college football slate, the first thing […]
We’ve got four games on the Friday-night college football slate: Duke-Virginia Tech, San Jose State-Air Force, Penn State-Maryland, and Arizona State-Cal. All should be entertaining, and provide intriguing DFS lineup options like Quentin Harris and Tre Walker. I’ll tend to fill most lineups with two quarterbacks using the super flex […]
In Pac-12 conference action on Friday night, the undefeated #15 Cal Bears host Herm Edwards and his scrappy Arizona State squad. The Sun Devils tumbled out of the Top 25 after a 34-31 loss to Colorado last weekend in Tempe. It had been over 17 years since the Buffs went […]

Can Hawaii handle both a potent Nevada offense, and expected cold weather? I don’t believe so. So, for this week’s One bet, $100, I’ll be putting my money on the Wolf Pack, and giving away two points to the Rainbow Warriors. This bet is the shakiest one I’ve made, and […]
Undefeated Oklahoma at #6, and undefeated Clemson at #1, are the only two teams with clear paths to the College Football Playoffs. All they have to do is win out. While that may seem obvious, seven other top-10 teams are also undefeated, but not all of them can run the […]
The Maryland Terrapins are 6.5-point home dog on Friday night against the #12 Penn State Nittany Lions, who are seeking to stay undefeated and improve to 4-0. In this Big Ten battle, Terrapins are hoping they can fend off Penn State and avoid sinking to a 2-2 record. #12 Penn […]
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon ended his holdout on Thursday, even without a new contract from the team. According to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Gordon isn’t expected to play in Los Angeles’ Week 4 game at the Miami Dolphins, but will be back with his teammates during […]
