7* Buffalo/Ball State MAC *Total* Annihilator on OVER 58.5

The Key: No game report from Monday, November 22 through Sunday, November 28.  Home with family for Thanksgiving week.

6* New Mexico/Boise State MWC *BAILOUT* on UNDER 48.5

The Key: New Mexico may get shut out in this game.  The Lobos have one of the worst offenses in the country at 13.6 PPG.  They cannot throw the ball, and they run it 38 times per game, so the clock will be moving in this one considering Boise State runs it 38 times per game as well.  Both of these defenses are underrated.  Boise yields only 20.1 PPG on the year.  New Mexico holds foes to 26.9 PPG and 349 YPG behind Rocky Long's proven scheme.  The UNDER is 5-0 in Lobos last 5 road games.  The UNDER is 4-1 in the last 5 matchups.  The UNDER is 5-0 in the last 5 matchups at Boise State.  The UNDER is 5-0 in Broncos last 5 games overall.  Take the UNDER.

6* NCAAF Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Connecticut +30.5

The Key: UConn is actually 5-2 ATS in its last 7 games overall to make backers some good money down the stretch.  The public doesn't want to bet this team so their lines are inflated consistently.  They were getting too many points against Clemson last week, and they're getting too many points against UCF this week.  UCF is 6-4 on the season so has already clinched a bowl and is just playing out the string.  The Knights lost 55-28 to UCF last week after only beating a bad Tulane team 14-10 the previous week.  The Knights are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games off a loss.  UCF is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games against a team with a losing record.  The Huskies are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as underdogs.  The road team is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 matchups.  Take Connecticut.

7* NCAAF Game of the Year on UCLA -3

The Key: The UCLA Bruins want to avenge their 43-38 loss to USC last year in which they had the game won but somehow lost it in the final seconds.  This is a different USC team.  The Trojans are just ready for their season to be over at 4-5 this year.  They have lost 3 of their last 4 games by 15 points or more, and their lone win was a 7-point victory over terrible Arizona.  The Bruins own bad teams, going 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games against a team with a losing record.  And the Trojans will be without starting QB Slovis and 1,000-yard receiver London.  Take UCLA.

6* Texas/West Virginia Big 12 *CA$H COW* on West Virginia -2.5

The Key: Texas is 0-5 SU & 0-5 ATS in its last 5 games overall and coming off that upset loss to Kansas as a 31-point favorite.  They cannot be trusted to even get off the bus this week against West Virginia.  They face a Mountaineers team that always seems to play well at home because it's such long travel for every other member of the Big 12.  The Mountaineers recently beat Iowa State at home, the same Iowa State team that beat Texas 30-7 the week prior to the Longhorns losing to Kansas.  The Mountaineers are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games off a game where they didn't force a single turnover.  Take West Virginia.

6* Rutgers/Penn State Big Ten *CA$H COW* on UNDER 47.5

The Key: Points will be hard to come by between Rutgers and Penn State just as they are every year these teams get together.  Each of the last 7 matchups in this series have seen 41 or fewer combined points, so it's no surprise the UNDER is 7-0 in the last 7 matchups.  It should be more of the same here with 2 great defenses and one very bad Rutgers offense.  Take the UNDER.

7* NCAAF Friday Night Lights on Arizona/Washington State OVER 52

The Key: Two teams not used to being on the prime time stage will square off tonight when the Arizona Wildcats visit the Washington State Cougars.  I think we see offensive fireworks between these two teams tonight.  Washington State has seen 4 of its last 5 games combined for 55 or more points.  Arizona combined for 67 points with Utah and 75 points with USC in 2 of its last 3 games.  There was a low-scoring game with Cal in between, but the Bears were missing almost everyone on offense due to COVID.  Washington State is 6-0 OVER in Weeks 10 through 13 over the last 3 years.  The OVER is 5-0 in the last 5 matchups with combined scores of 97, 95, 76, 87 and 96 points.  Take the OVER.

6* Louisville/Duke ACC *CA$H COW* on Louisville -19.5

The Key: Duke is 0-6 in its last 6 games overall.  5 of the 6 losses have come by 25 points or more.  So the Blue Devils haven't even been competitive and won't be tonight either.  This Louisville team is looking to clinch a bowl berth with a win tonight and won't want to have to wait until Kentucky next week, where they could be underdogs.  The Cardinals are way better than their 5-5 record as they have so many close losses this year.  They took out their frustration with a 41-3 win over Syracuse, which was coming off a bye last week.  And it should be more of the same here against this Duke team that appears to have quit.  Duke gives up 44 PPG and 551.7 YPG in conference play this year.  The Blue Devils are 0-6 ATS against good offensive teams that average 425 YPG or more over the last 2 years.  Take Louisville.

7* Central Michigan/Ball State MAC *HEAVY HITTER* on Central Michigan -1.5

The Key: The Central Michigan Chippewas have gone 4-1 SU in their last 5 games overall with their lone loss coming by a single point.  They are still alive to win the MAC West due to this run.  They would need to win out and have Northern Illinois lose its final 2 games, which is very possible considering NIU is only a 1-point favorite at Buffalo tonight and has Western Michigan next week.  The Chippewas will show up tonight.  I question whether or not Ball State will show up.  The Cardinals were just eliminated from MAC West title contention after losing on a last-second field goal to NIU 29-30 last week.  The defending champs now have nothing to play for other than bowl eligibility, which they can accomplish next week at home against Buffalo.  I think they will suffer a hangover from that NIU loss last week and not show up this week.  The Chippewas are 21-8-2 ATS in their last 31 games as road favorites.  The Chippewas are 14-2-1 ATS in their last 17 Wednesday games.  The Cardinals are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games.  The road team is 16-5 ATS in the last 21 matchups.  Take Central Michigan.

7* MAC Total of the Month on Western Michigan/Eastern Michigan OVER 66

The Key: Two OVER teams square off tonight in Western Michigan and Eastern Michigan.  Western Michigan is 4-1 OVER in its last 5 games with combined scores of 65, 95, 72 and 95 points in the 4 OVERS.  Eastern Michigan is 3-1 OVER in its last 4 games overall with combined scores of 69, 79 and 101 points in the 3 OVERS.  Expect more of the same with a shootout between these two great offenses tonight and suspect defenses.  WMU has yielded 31 or more points in 5 straight games.  EMU has yielded 34 or more points in 3 of its last 4.  The OVER Is 17-4 in Broncos last 21 November games.  The OVER Is 8-2-1 in Eagles last 11 games off a loss.  These teams combined for 95 points last year in a 53-42 EMU victory.  Take the OVER.

6* Kentucky/Vanderbilt SEC *CA$H COW* on Vanderbilt +22.5

The Key: I like the price we are getting on Vanderbilt today.  They are coming off their bye week and it is Senior Day, so they will put forth a good effort.  I question where Kentucky is mentally after starting 6-0 and dropping 3 straight to fall out of the SEC East race.  They won't be that excited to be playing Vanderbilt this week.  Vanderbilt nearly upset them last year in a 35-38 loss as 17.5-point road dogs.  This one will be closer than expected too given all the situations in the Commodores' favor.  Take Vanderbilt.

7* SEC Game of the Year on Tennessee +20.5

The Key: Tennessee has the best offense that Georgia has faced this year and should be able to put up enough points to stay within this number.  The Vols also have a better defense than they get credit for yielding only 5.3 YPP and 3.8 YPR.  Their fast tempo will be something that Georgia hasn't seen this season and may not be prepared for.  It is the type of style that can actually find some holes in this amazing Georgia defense.  QB Hendon Hooker has thrown 21 TD against only 2 INT this year with 69.4% completions.  He has also rushed for 457 yards and 4 TD while being one of the most underrated QB's in the nation.  Take Tennessee.

6* Boston College/Georgia Tech ACC *CA$H COW* on Georgia Tech -1.5

The Key: Georgia Tech is coming off 3 straight close losses to Virginia, Virginia Tech and Miami.  The Yellow Jackets will be hungry for a win with Boston College coming to town today.  The Eagles are coming off a huge national TV win over Virginia Tech on Red Bandana night.  This is a letdown spot for the Eagles.  Boston College is 0-6 ATS in its last 6 games off an upset win as an underdog.  The Eagles are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games off a conference win.  Take Georgia Tech.

6* Syracuse/Louisville ACC *CA$H COW* on Louisville -3

The Key: Louisville is so much better than its 4-5 record.  The Cardinals outgain teams by 35 YPG and 0.5 YPP this year.  They have played a much tougher schedule than Syracuse has.  The Orange are 5-4 and 8-1 ATS and getting respect now with that ATS mark.  They will fall flat on their faces here and Louisville will be hungry for a win knowing it needs 2 more in its final 3 games to make a bowl.  Louisville is 6-1 SU & 6-1 ATS in the last 7 matchups.  The favorite is 7-0 ATS in the last 7 matchups.  Take Louisville.

6* NCAAF Non-Conference *CA$H COW* on Connecticut +41

The Key: UConn has gone 4-2 ATS in its last 6 games overall and has been competitive more than expected.  That includes 2-point losses to both Wyoming and Vanderbilt.  I don't know if Clemson can even score 41 points with their offense this year.  They have been held to 30 or fewer points in 8 of their 9 games with the only exception being the 49 against South Carolina State as a 50-point favorite.  They didn't score enough in that game to cover that large number, either.  The Tigers are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 non-conference games.  The Huskies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as underdogs.  Take Connecticut.

7* Wyoming/Boise State NCAAF Friday Night Lights on UNDER 48.5

The Key: Wyoming and Boise State are two UNDER teams because they run the ball a lot and have good defenses.  Wyoming attempts 42 rushes per game while Boise State attempts 38.  Wyoming yields 21.3 PPG and Boise State 20.9 PPG.  The last 4 matchups between Wyoming and Boise State have seen 26, 37, 48 and 38 combined points.  Take the UNDER.

7* UNC/Pitt ACC *Total* Annihilator on OVER 71.5

The Key: Two of the best offenses in the ACC go at it tonight when North Carolina travels to face Pitt.  The Panthers score 45 PPG and average 541.1 YPG behind an NFL quarterback in Kenny Pickett who has 29 TD and only 3 INT this year.  North Carolina averages 38.9 PPG and 488.8 YPG behind an NFL quarterback in Sam Howell who can beat you with his arms and his legs.  He did just that last week in a 58-55 win over Wake Forest.  And it should be a shootout again tonight against this Pitt squad.  UNC's last 3 games have all seen 78 or more combined points.  6 of Pitt's last 8 games have seen 72 or more combined points.  UNC is 7-0 OVER In its last 7 road games against good passing teams that complete 58% or better. Take the OVER.

6* Toledo/Bowling Green MAC *CA$H COW* on Bowling Green +10.5

The Key: The Bowling Green Falcons have had 2 full weeks to get ready for Toledo.  They are coming off a 56-44 win over Buffalo as 13.5-point dogs on the road 2 weeks ago.  Now they come in with confidence and the fresher team.  Toledo is coming off a 52-49 loss to Eastern Michigan last week that definitely would have taken a lot out of them.  They should not be double-digit road favorites here when you consider they are 1-3 SU & 1-3 ATS in their last 3 games with their only win coming against Western Michigan in a game they were outgained by 68 yards.  They were upset by Northern Illinois, Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan in their 3 losses.  The Falcons are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall.  Bowling Green is 7-1 ATS in its last 8 games as an underdog.  Take Bowling Green.

7* Tuesday MAC *HEAVY HITTER* on Akron/Western Michigan OVER 62

The Key: Western Michigan will gets its points against Akron's defense and can pretty much name its number.  The Zips should get their points as well being an improved offense under QB Zach Gibson, who has 72% completions, 8 TD and 0 INT in basically 3 starts this year.  The Zips scored 35 points against Bowling Green, 21 against Miami and 25 against Ball State in his 3 starts.  He threw for 291 against a good Miami defense and 331 against Ball State.  The OVER is 5-1 in Zips last 6 road games.  The OVER is 4-0 in Broncos last 4 home games against a team with a losing record.  The OVER is 6-1 in Broncos last 7 Tuesday games.  Take the OVER.

6* Clemson/Louisville ACC *CA$H COW* on Louisville +4.5

The Key: Clemson would be 0-8 ATS this year if not for a defensive TD on the final play of the game last week to turn a 24-20 win over lowly Florida State into a 30-20 win as 9.5-point favorites.  Louisville is much better than Florida State and one of the best teams that Clemson has faced this year.  The Cardinals will get the cover at home Saturday and likely win this game outright.  Louisville has the much better offense.  Clemson would be held to 24 points or fewer in 6 straight games if not for that defensive TD against FSU.  Louisville has put up 434 or more yards in 6 of its last 7 games.  The Cardinals have outgained 5 of their last 7 opponents with the only exceptions behind -19 yards against Virginia and -58 against FSU.  The Tigers are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games.  The Cardinals are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 games off an ATS loss.  The Cardinals are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games after scoring less than 20 points last game.  Take Louisville.

6* Houston/USF AAC *CA$H COW* on South Florida +13.5

The Key: South Florida has played a much tougher schedule than Houston has this year.  The Bulls opened 1-4 with all 4 losses to ranked teams in Florida, BYU, SMU and NC State.  They were competitive ATS in 3 of those 4 games.  The schedule has lightened up and they have played better.  They only lost by 1 to Tulsa s 7-point dogs.  They crushed Temple 34-14 as 1.5-point favorites.  And they lost 29-14 to ECU only because they had 4 turnovers in a game that was closer than the final score.  Houston is coming off a massive last-second win over SMU in which they returned a kickoff for a TD in the final seconds to win 44-37 and hand the Mustangs their first loss of the season.  Now this is an obvious letdown situation for the Cougars.  Houston is 8-20 ATS in its last 28 games off an ATS win.  South Florida is 11-1 ATS in its last 12 games off an ATS loss.  Take South Florida.

7* ACC Game of the Year on North Carolina -2.5

The Key: The North Carolina Tar Heels have played a much tougher schedule than the Wake Forest Demon Deacons this season and they have had tough luck in close games, while the Demon Deacons have won all their close games.  That's the difference in UNC being 4-4 while Wake is 8-0.  But the Tar Heels will hand the Demon Deacons their first loss of the year this week.  The Tar Heels are 25-9 ATS in their last 34 home games against a team with a winning record.  The home team has covered 6 of the last 7 matchups in this series.  Take North Carolina.

7* VT/BC NCAAF Friday Night Lights on Boston College +3

The Key: This is Boston College's Red Bandana game that stems back to 9/11 and the heroes.  Look up the story it's pretty good.  The Eagles have been great in this game year after year as it adds to their motivation.  And they won't have any problem being motivated with rival Virginia Tech coming to town for a National TV Friday night game.  I expect them to win this game on the field, but I'll take the 3 points.  The Hokies are 0-8 ATS in their last 8 road games off 2 straight games where they committed zero turnovers.  The Eagles are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 home games after gaining 125 or fewer rushing yards in 3 straight games.  The Hokies are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 road games.  Virginia Tech is 8-25 ATS in its last 33 games as a road favorite.  The Eagles are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games.  Take Boston College.

6* Wednesday MAC *Total* Annihilator on Central Michigan/Western Michigan OVER 66

The Key: These are two balanced offenses in Central Michigan and Western Michigan and it should be a classic MAC shootout tonight.  Central Michigan puts up 449.5 YPG, 288 PYPG and 161.5 RYPG.  Western Michigan averages 432.5 YPG, 249.6 PYPG and 182.9 RYPG.  These teams played in a shootout last year with Western Michigan winning 52-44 for 96 combined points.  We only need them to top 66 to cash this OVER tonight.  The OVER is 7-1 in Chippewas last 8 Wednesday games.  The OVER is 6-0 in Broncos last 6 Wednesday games.  Take the OVER.

7* Tuesday MAC *HEAVY HITTER* on Ohio/Miami (Ohio) UNDER 53

The Key: Two poor offensive teams go at it tonight in MACtion when Miami (Ohio) visits Ohio.  Both teams are averaging just 21.1 PPG and I think this total is too high.  8 of the last 11 matchups between these teams have resulted in 47 or fewer combined points.  The Redhawks are 8-1 UNDER in their last 9 MAC road games.  The UNDER is 9-1 in Redhawks last 10 games off a conference win.  The UNDER is 9-0 in Redhawks last 9 games off an ATS win.  The UNDER is 5-1 in the last 6 matchups.  The UNDER is 5-0 in Bobcats last 5 games overall.  Take the UNDER.

7* Big 12 Game of the Year on Kansas +30.5

The Key: Oklahoma State hasn't won a game by more than 11 points this season.  They may win this game by more than 11, but it's not going to be by 31-plus.  Kansas nearly upset Oklahoma last week and is getting better under their first-year head coach.  They will keep battling and keep this game competitive for 4 quarters.  The Cowboys are in a hangover situation after suffering their 1st loss of the season last week against Iowa State.  Take Kansas.

6* Arkansas State/South Alabama Sun Belt *CA$H COW* on Arkansas State +9

The Key: Arkansas State gets a few extra days to prepare after a 27-28 loss as 18-point dogs to Louisiana on Thursday last week.  They are hungry for that first conference victory and will have a good chance of getting it today against South Alabama.  The Jaguars are 4-3 this year but their wins have come against Southern Miss, Georgia Southern, Bowling Green (by 3) and Alcorn State (by 7).  They tend to play in close games and it is hard to see them winning by double-digits today.  Three of the last 4 matchups in this series were decided by one score.  Take Arkansas State.

6* Texas Tech/Oklahoma Big 12 *CA$H COW* on OVER 66

The Key: This is 2 great offenses against 2 bad defenses and should result in yet another shootout in this rivalry between Texas Tech and Oklahoma.  The Sooners are putting up 41.8 PPG and the Red Raiders are scoring 34.3 PPG.  Texas Tech gives up 30.6 PPG and Oklahoma yields 24.6 PPG.  Texas Tech and Oklahoma have combined for at least 68 points in 8 straight matchups, which is an 8-0 angle backing the OVER with this 66-point total.  The last 8 have seen 90, 71, 97, 76, 125, 90, 72 and 68 combined points, respectively.  Take the OVER.

6* Saturday NCAAF *Total* Annihilator on FIU/Marshall OVER 64

The Key: Marshall is a great OVER team because they play at a fast tempo averaging 76 plays per game.  Their offense puts up 36.9 PPG and 510 YPG.  They'll be able to name their number against a FIU defense that yields 40.8 PPG and 521.8 YPG.  This FIU offense has scored at least 21 in 4 of their last 5 and should get to at least that number today to help aid the OVER.  FIU is 9-1 OVER in its last 10 Saturday road games.  FIU is 6-0 OVER in its last 6 road games off a loss.  The OVER is 5-2 in the last 7 matchups.  Take the OVER.

6* Michigan/Michigan State Big Ten *CA$H COW* on UNDER 51

The Key: Michigan and Michigan State are bitter rivals and familiar with each other.  That familiarity should lead to a low-scoring game in this rivalry Saturday.  Michigan has one of the best defenses in the nation.  The Wolverines yield just 14.3 PPG and 299.1 YPG.  They are good against the run allowing 117 YPG and 3.6 YPG.  Michigan State also has a good defense that yields 18.7 PPG.  Bets on the UNDER when the total is 49.5 to 56 in a game between two good rushing teams that outrush their opponents by 50 YPG or more after 7-plus games are 40-8 over the last 5 years.  Take the UNDER.

7* Navy/Tulsa NCAAF Friday Night Lights on UNDER 46.5

The Key: Tulsa has had the last 2 weeks off to prepare to face Navy's triple-option.  It is one of the weakest offenses in recent memory for Navy, and the Golden Hurricane should shut it down.  The Midshipmen average just 17.9. PPG and 280.3 YPG this year.  They do have a good defense and shorten games with their offense.  They give up 356 YPG on defense.  Tulsa has an above average defense and is good at stopping the run, giving up 3.8 YPC this year.  Take the UNDER.

6* USF/ECU American Athletic *CA$H COW* on South Florida +10

The Key: South Florida played 4 Top 25 teams in their first 5 games and didn't fare well, which is understandable.  They have since gone 1-1 SU & 2-0 ATS and should have beaten Tulsa, but lost 31-32 as 7-point dogs.  They came back with their best performance of the season last week in a 34-14 win over a Temple team that was in a good spot coming off their bye.  South Florida had 526 total yards and outgained Temple by 295 yards.  East Carolina is 3-4 and cannot be trusted as a double-digit favorite.  The Pirates are 8-21 ATS in their last 29 games as favorites, including 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games as home favorites.  The Bulls are 7-2 ATS in the last 9 matchups, including 4-1 ATS in the last 5 matchups at ECU.  The road team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 matchups.  Take South Florida.

6* West Virginia/TCU Big 12 *CA$H COW* on UNDER 57.5

The Key: West Virginia is a great UNDER team as they have a great defense and a terrible offense.  They are 4-1 UNDER in their 5 games this year.  Their offense is averaging just 20.8 PPG.  Their defense has done great against the competition they have faced, holding opponents to 0.7 YPP below their season averages.  TCU has played a bunch of shootouts lately against great offenses as their last 4 games have come against SMU, Texas, Texas Tech and Oklahoma.  So this total is inflated due to the high scoring games they have played recently.  This head-to-head matchup has been low scoring in recent years.  WVU and TCU have combined for 30, 37, 57, 55, 54, and 50 points in the last 6 matchups, respectively.  The UNDER is 6-1 in the last 7 matchups.  The UNDER is 10-1 in Mountaineers last 11 games as an underdog.  Take the UNDER.

6* NC State/Miami ACC *CA$H COW* on NC State -3.5

The Key: NC State is one of the best teams in the nation at 5-1 this year.  Their only loss came on the road against SEC foe Mississippi State.  They eat Clemson and are coming off a 33-7 win at Boston College last week following their bye.  So they should still be fresh here.  Miami's season is lost at 2-4 and I wouldn't be surprised to see them pack it in.  Especially coming off 2 straight gut wrenching losses to Virginia by 2 and UNC by 3.  Losing QB D'Eriq King really hurts them.  They have 16 players on the injury report while NC State only has 3.  The Wolfpack are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games after playing their last game on the road.  NC State is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 against a team with a losing record.  The Hurricanes are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 against a team with a winning record.  Miami is 1-7 ATS in its last 8 home games.  Take NC State.

6* San Diego State/Air Force MWC *CA$H COW* on San Diego State +3

The Key: San Diego State is 6-0 this year and looks to improve to 7-0 with a win against Air Force on Saturday.  The Aztecs have one extra day to get ready after playing last Friday.  I like the matchup for the Aztecs as the Falcons can basically only run the ball, averaging 336 yards per game on the ground.  San Diego State only gives up 61 RYPG and 2.1 YPC.  They are the best team in the country against the run.  It's no surprise San Diego State is 8-0 SU in its last 8 matchups with Air Force.  The Aztecs are 7-2 ATS in the last 9 matchups.  Take San Diego State.

7* Oregon/UCLA Pac-12 *HEAVY HITTER* on UCLA -1

The Key: The Oregon Ducks have been getting too much love since winning at Ohio State.  They have lost to Stanford, nearly lost to Cal and played terribly against Arizona in their last 3 games while going 0-3 ATS.  UCLA is the more legit of these 2 teams and is a field goal away from being 6-1 this year.  They want to avenge their 35-38 road loss at Oregon last year and I expect them to.  The Ducks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games off a win.  Take UCLA.

6* Wisconsin/Purdue Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Purdue +3.5

The Key: There was nothing fluky at all about Purdue's 24-7 win at Iowa.  The Boilermakers had 464 total yards against an elite Iowa defense.  They held the Hawkeyes to 271 yards and forced 4 turnovers.  Now they are home dogs against a worse Wisconsin team.  I like the price and I like the fact that Purdue had a bye 2 weeks ago and should still be fresh.  They only have one Big Ten loss and feel like a contender in the West.  Wisconsin is 3-3 this year with its 3 wins coming against Eastern Michigan, Illinois and Army.  They barely survived a physical 20-14 home win over Army last week and have been a huge disappointment with 3 losses already.  The Badgers are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 against a team with a winning record.  The Boilermakers are 18-6 ATS in their last 24 games as a dog.  Take Purdue.

7* NCAAF Friday Night Lights on Colorado State -2.5

The Key: Colorado State is 3-1 SU & 4-0 ATS in its last 4 games overall.  The only loss came by 10 points at Iowa when they had the Hawkeyes on the ropes as 24-point dogs.  They won by 16 at Toledo as 14.5-point dogs.  They won by 18 over San Jose State as 3.5-point favorites.  They won by 29 at New Mexico as 13-point favorites.  Utah State is 1-2 SU & 0-3 ATS in its last 3 games overall with its only win coming by 4 points against a very bad UNLV team.  They also lost by 14 to BYU and by 24 to Boise State, both at home.  The Aggies are 3-14 ATS in their last 17 games as home underdogs.  Take Colorado State.

7* Sun Belt Game of the Month on Arkansas State +18

The Key: Game report coming soon.

6* Coastal Carolina/App State NCAAF *CA$H COW* on OVER 60.5

The Key: Two great offensive teams go at it Wednesday night in this Sun Belt showdown.  Coastal Carolina is putting up 48.8 PPG and 552.3 YPG against a soft schedule, but it has been impressive nonetheless.  App State is putting up 31.5 PPG and 436.3 YPG against a much tougher schedule, equally impressive.  But this App State defense has taken a step back this year and that was evident when they yielded 41 points and 455 yards to Louisiana-Lafayette last week.  The OVER is 6-0 in Mountaineers last 6 games off an ATS loss.  Take the OVER.
