11-05-23	Rams v. Packers -2.5		3-20	Win	100	141 h 38 m	Show
Packers -3 A nice matchup on Sunday when the Rams (3-5, 3-4 ATS, 2-2 on the road) take on the Packers (2-5, 3-4 ATS, 1-2 at home) on Nov. 5 from Lambeau Field at 1pm ET. NFL Opening odds have the Packers as +1.5pt point dogs ATS, and the O/U line has been set at 42.5. ML straight up bettors will see the Rams +145, and the Packers are at -160. I had the Cowboys -6 over the Rams on Sunday and I'm going back to the well this weekend with the Packers at home behind their rabid fan base. I'm not sure at this point of the week if Stafford will play (He's questionable as of Monday), if he does I think he'll be in quite a bit of pain. It's a 1pm ET game as well, which is always difficult for the west-coast teams. The weather will also likely be a factor this week for a nice indoor/climate controlled team playing in the elements of Wisconsin. I get it if you don't trust the Packers, but I do this week. Their defense plays well at home. Green Bay will lean on that defense here to force the Rams into some uncomfortable and long third down spots. The key for them will be to put together a lot of different blitz packages. The Packers are at their best on the defensive end when they can get into the backfield and cause a lot of havoc. That should be the case in this one as they can produce some long yardage situations and get off the field. Look for them to even force a few turnovers here. The Rams have been turning the ball over a lot more and they just don't look as sharp as they have in the past. Stafford is reeling right now and his offensive line is letting him down. Given their struggles, they haven't covered the number much either. Some trends to note, the Rams are 1-6-1 ATS in their L8 games in November, are 5-14 SU in their L19 games, are 0-9 ATS in their L9 games against the Packers, and are 0-5 ATS in their L5 games when playing on the road against Green Bay. On the other side the Packers are 7-1 in their L8 vs. NFC West teams. Back the Packers -3 on Sunday when the Rams travel to Lambeau. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play
11-04-23	UCLA v. Arizona +2.5		10-27	Win	100	83 h 31 m	Show
Arizona +2.5 On Saturday we get another nice Pac 12 matchup to feast on. The UCLA Bruins (6-2 SU, 4-4 ATS, 2-2 AWAY) take on the Arizona Wildcats (5-3 SU, 7-1 ATS, 3-1 HOME). This one kicks off from Arizona Stadium at 10:30pm ET. The betting odds favor the Bruins -2.5 as road favorites, while we're seeing Zona at +2.5. On the ML (for straight up bettors) we're seeing UCLA -135, and AZ at +120. The total opened at 59, and we're now seeing it at 51.5 (O/U). Bettors are hammering the UNDER. Arizona comes into this one averaging 31.2PPG (46th in the nation), while UCLA comes in averaging 30.8PPG. (48th). UCLA owns the matchup advantage 7-3 in their L10. UCLA are 4-6 in their L10, and Arizona are 7-3 SU in their L10. These two last played on 11/12/22 a 34-28 Arizona win in Pasadena. This is another game where UCLA is going to have a let down. They've lost their two games this year on the road as Utah and Oregon State both exposed a lot of flaws on them. Arizona can take a page out of their playbooks coming into play. UCLA struggled offensively in those games as they couldn't figure out the various schemes and were forced into some tough windows to pass in. Arizona is at their best defensively when they bring pressure. That is going to be the case here as they will bring more than 4 a lot, pushing back this UCLA front. Another tough matchup to see go away in the Pac 12. A late night BAIL out play for Saturday evening. We hope we don't need a BAIL out of course, so hopefully this is just a cherry on top of another winning day. Really impressed with Pac 12 frosh of the week AZ QB Noah Fifita. (Sunday's could be in his future) He's 111/149 for 1152YDS with 11TD's and 3 INT's in his first 4 starts. Completing over 70% of his passes. UCLA presents a defensive test, but I think Fifita passes it. Some trends to note, UCLA are 4-8 ATS in their L12, and are 2-6 ATS in their L8 vs. teams from the Pac 12. The Cats come into this one 7-1 in their L8 ATS and 6-3 SU in their L9. Plus they're 4-1 in their L5 vs. Pac 12 teams. Lastly, the Cats are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog of 0.5-3.0. I'm backing the Cats on Saturday vs. UCLA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB ATS Play
11-04-23	Washington -3 v. USC		52-42	Win	100	80 h 8 m	Show
Washington -3 On Saturday we get my favorite Pac 12 matchup. Sadly, it's their last Pac 12 matchup. The Washington Huskies (8-0, 3-4-1 ATS, 3-0 AWAY) take on the USC Trojans (7-2, 2-7 ATS, 4-1 HOME) from the LA Memorial Coliseum at 7:30pm ET. The odds currently have Washington as a -174 ML favorite, USC is +140. ATS the Huskies are -3 to -3.5 pt favorites depending on your book. White the O/U betting total is set at 76 but opened at 78.5. The Huskies come into this one 9th in the nation scoring at 40.4PPG. The Trojans 1st at 45.9PPG. Defensively the Huskies allow 20.6PPG, and the Trojans allow 32.6PPG. The Huskies own the L5 matchup advantage 3-2. (The Huskies went 0-5 ATS in those L5). Over the L10 USC has the edge 6-4 SU. Michael Penix Jr is looking to continue his way toward the Heisman. He is the biggest piece to this game as he not only want to outshine his counterpart Caleb Williams, but he also wants to continue this Huskies march toward a potential BCS Playoff. We simply can trust the Huskies defense more. As we talked about earlier, they allow 12 less points than this USC defense. The Trojans have been torched by just about everyone and they've lucked out in the end in a few instances. Washington's defense is going to get creative here and force Caleb Williams into some uncomfortable situations. The last time these two matched up UW took USC down 28-14 in Seattle. I'm not sure I see a 14pt win on Saturday, but I see a 5+ point win. Some trends to note, UW are 10-0 SU in their L10, are 8-3 ATS in their L11 vs. SC, and are 6-0 SU in their L6 games on the road. Lastly, UW are 4-1-1 ATS in their L6 after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game. On the other side, USC are 0-6 ATS in their L6, and are 0-5 ATS in their L5 vs. Pac 12 teams. I'm all over the road team in this one. Give me the Dawgs -3 on Saturday in LA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play
11-04-23	Missouri v. Georgia -15		21-30	Loss	-110	48 h 12 m	Show
Georgia -15 In Saturday's SEC matchup, #1 Georgia (8-0, 5-0 at home, 3-5 ATS) faces off against #14 Missouri (7-1, 5-2 ATS, 2-0 away) at Sanford Stadium in Athens, GA. The game starts at 3:30pm ET and will be broadcast on CBS. Here are the Week 10 College Football Odds: ATS Betting Lines: Georgia (-15.5), Moneyline odds Georgia (-739), Missouri (+508). The Over/Under Betting total is set at 55. Mizzou recently defeated South Carolina 34-12, while Georgia triumphed over Florida 43-20. Their previous encounter on 10/1/22 saw Georgia win 26-22 over Mizzou, staying under the 54.5 total. Mizzou holds an 8-2 SU record and 6-4 ATS in their last 10 games, while Georgia is 10-0 SU and 4-6 ATS in their last 10. I'm on UG on Saturday -15. I see them as the play here. This game is a big one, and to put it simply, I have more faith in UG than Mizzou. UG knows Mizzou well, understands their strengths, and has a plan to counter them. Last year, Georgia had to come back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to beat Missouri 26-22 and stay in the running for the national title. They won't underestimate Mizzou this time around. Combine that with the new playoff rankings coming out as well and Georgia isn't going to take this game lightly. The Bulldogs were ranked behind the Buckeyes in the current BCS Playoff rankings, which is certainly going to light a fire. The defense is going to be the difference here. Look fore them to force a lot of issues for this Mizzou front and or them to get into the backfield. They're going to force turnovers and long 3rd down situations, which should result in some short fields for the Bulldogs. Some trends to note, Missouri are 0-9 SU in their L9 against Georgia. On the other side Georgia are 10-0 SU in their L10, are 20-0 SU in their L20 at home, and finally they're 15-0 SU in their L15 vs. SEC teams. Back the Bulldogs ATS. Give the points. You won't need them. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CFB ATS Play
11-04-23	Notre Dame -3 v. Clemson		23-31	Loss	-105	114 h 15 m	Show
Notre Dame -3 What a great matchup we get on Saturday in college football betting action when the Fighting Irish (7-2, 2-1 on the road, 7-2 ATS) vs. Clemson (4-4, 3-1 at home, 2-6 ATS) on Nov. 4 from Memorial Stadium at 12pm ET. CFB Opening odds have the Irish as -2pt favorites ATS, and the O/U line has been set at 40.5. ML straight up bettors will see the the Irish -160, and the Tigers are at +140. Notre Dame's offense is going to be the difference. ND comes into this one after dismantling the PITT Panthers last week. They're rollin'. I'm of the opinion that they're defense is playing the best they've played all year. Plus they scored 23 points off of 5 Pitt turnovers in this one. They now have 10 takeaways in their L2 games. They've protected the ball and also been able to run a solid balanced attack, which is something they lacked in their losses to Louisville and Ohio State. They lean on Estimee to get things going and that opened up a lot of passing lanes for Hartman last week. Expect that strategy to stay the same. Off of back to back losses Clemson is reeling, and being back home for some home cooking may be what the Dr. ordered. These two clubs have met 6x with 4 coming since 2015. The Tigers have the edge 4-2. But after this week, and how well the Irish are playing of late I'm going to say the edge will be 4-3. This Irish had Clemson's number last season too, winning 35-14. Some trends to note, for starters the Irish are 11-1 ATS in their L12 vs. ACC teams, are 7-2-1 ATS in their L10 games, and are 8-2 ATS in their L10 games on the road. On the other side Clemson are 1-6 ATS vs. a team with a winning record, and are 1-6 ATS in their L7 non-conference games. Lastly, they're 1-4 ATS in their L5 games. Two teams going in opposite directions. Back the Irish on Saturday on the road vs. Clemson. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* CFB ATS Play
11-03-23	Boston College +3 v. Syracuse		17-10	Win	100	28 h 48 m	Show
BC +3 In Week 10, we've got a Friday Night Lights matchup between Syracuse (4-4, 3-4-1 ATS, 0-4 ACC, 3-1 HOME) and Boston College (5-3, 3-5 ATS, 2-2 ACC, 2-1 AWAY) at JMA Wireless Dome. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. ET, catch it on ESPN2. Week 10 ATS Betting Lines favor Syracuse (-2.5 to -3), with Moneyline odds of Syracuse (-139) and Boston College (+117). The Over/Under total is set at 51. Boston College is riding high after a 21-14 victory against UConn, while Syracuse is reeling from a 38-10 loss to Virginia Tech. These teams seem to be heading in opposite directions. Their last meeting on 11/26/22 ended in a Syracuse 32-23 win, with BC covering the +10.5. In their last 10 games, BC is 8-2 SU (4-6 ATS), and Syracuse is 5-5 SU (4-6 ATS). BC averages 28 PPG, while Syracuse puts up 26 PPG. Syracuse has been unable to figure things out offensively. That is going to be the biggest difference here. The Orange inability to move the ball has led to turnovers and quick 3 and outs. BC's defense has been impressive, allowing no more than 24 points in any game during their recent streak. Meanwhile, Syracuse has struggled against UNC, FSU, Clemson, and Va. Tech, losing by a combined score of 150-34. It's a tough road ahead for the Orange. BC has got more to play for it seems like (bowl eligibility) We're backing the hotter team. Boston College is going to come at this Orange offensive line with so many different blitz packages, giving them a lot to think about. If they can get into the backfield and not give them a lot of time to throw, this Orange team is simply not built to come from behind. Some trends to note, the Eagles are 6-1 ATS in their L7 as a road dog of 0.5-3.0. Also, BC are 4-1 SU in their L5, and 6-3 in their L9 in November. Cuse are 0-4-1 in their L5 ATS, and 1-4 SU in their L5. Plus they're 0-8 ATS in their L8 vs. ACC teams. Finally, the Orange are 0-8 ATS in their L8 after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game. Meet me at the window! I'm backing the Eagles on TGIF. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

11-02-23	Titans v. Steelers -2.5		16-20	Win	100	56 h 24 m	Show
Steelers -2.5 Titans (3-4, 0-3 AWAY, 4-3 ATS) vs. Steelers (4-3, 2-2 HOME, 4-3 ATS) ATS: Steelers -2.5, Titans +2.5, O/U: 36.5, ML: Titans +130, Steelers -150 Last Meeting: Steelers 19 Titans 13 (12/19/21) Titans L10 - 5-5 SU, Steelers L10 7-3 SU I see the Steelers being the team to back on Thursday Night Football. I'm delivering a win to you "via Amazon Prime!" (See what I did there? LOL) The Titans will be without Tannehill once again and this Pittsburgh defense is going to blitz all night long in this one. The Steelers defense is one of the best, led by TJ Watt, who loves to cause a lot of havoc in the backfield. They'll get a look at Will Levis here, who does come in off a good start. Still, Pittsburgh defense is 2nd in the NFL in takeaways this season. They are going to put together a lot of different blitz packages and have Levis on tilt here. The advantage its with the home side in this one as they should control the tempo on both sides of the ball. Some trends to note, Pittsburgh are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games, and are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss, plus, they're 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss. On the other side the Titans are 3-11 SU in their last 14 games, and are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against Pittsburgh. While they may have found their QB of the future I'm not impressed with the Titans overall. I just don't think the Titans are a very good football team. Steelers -2.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NFL ATS Play
11-02-23	TCU v. Texas Tech -3		28-35	Win	100	9 h 10 m	Show
Red Raiders -3 In a crucial matchup, TCU (4-4, 1-2 AWAY, 3-5 ATS) takes on Texas Tech (3-5, 2-2 HOME, 3-5 ATS) tonight in Week 10. Both teams seek a win after a bye week, aiming for bowl eligibility in their Big 12 clash in Lubbock, Texas. The game kicks off at 7:00 p.m. ET on FS1. The betting odds favor Texas Tech (-3) as the Spread Favorite (ATS). On the moneyline, it's Texas Tech (-148) for straight up bettors and TCU (+124). The Over/Under total is set at 59.5. Their previous meeting on 11/5/22 ended in a 34-24 TCU victory. TCU is 4-6 SU in their last 10, while the Red Raiders are 5-5 SU. Last games out TCU got smashed 41-3 by KState. Tech lost 27-14 to BYU. We're on Texas Tech here, at home. This is almost a must win for the Red Raiders if they hope to find themselves in the postseason bowl games. They have dealt with injuries all season long, but do get back QB Behren Morton, who will make a difference here. He's the spark TT needs to get that offense going again. I have no doubt here. He's been able to lead this offense when healthy to some big plays and solid performances overall. Tech needs to win 3 of their last 4 to get to a bowl so his timing is great, and Jake Strong was not the answer. TCU has been one of the most disappointing teams in the nation this year and they have struggled on the road. This is going to be a game where Texas Tech comes out with a bit of fire underneath them as well. The Red Raiders should be able to find a lot of success against this secondary, we're backing TT. Protect the ball, and don't turn it over tonight...that's how TT takes this one. Weather will be clear and in the high 60's, not a factor. Some trends to note, Red Raiders are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Thursday games, and are 4-2 ATS in their L6 vs. Big 12 teams. On the other side TCU are 3-6 ATS in their L9. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* CFB ATS Play
10-30-23	Raiders v. Lions -8		14-26	Win	100	169 h 21 m	Show
LIONS -8 Locking this in early. I expect the line to move UP TO -9 or -9.5 as the weak moves on. (I could be wrong, and I was wrong. LOL) Tonight, it's Monday Night Football in Week 8 as the Raiders (3-4) take on the Lions (5-2) at Ford Field, with an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff on ABC/ESPN. For those looking to bet straight up, the odds stand at Raiders +300 and Lions -375. If you prefer the point spread, the Lions are favored by -7.5 (-115), and the Over/Under total is set at 44.5. In their last outing, the Raiders suffered a brutal defeat, losing 30-12 to the Bears in a game that was completely one-sided. They failed to cover the spread as a 2.5-point road favorite. On the other hand, Detroit had a tough time too, experiencing their worst loss of the season, a 38-6 drubbing at the hands of the Ravens, failing to cover as 3-point underdogs. Tonight we're in a nice bounce back spot on the Lions. They are here to put last week behind them as they were throttled by the Ravens. They still have had a lot of success thus far and still have far more confidence heading into play here. The Raiders had just 235 yards in their loss to Chicago, a game in which their struggles came on both sides of the ball. Las Vegas has just been far too inconsistent to trust. The Lions should be able to move the ball on them and put together some solid drives early in this one. Look for the Lions to stake themselves out to a lead and have this Raiders team in an uncomfortable spot. Some trends to note, Vegas are 2-4 ATS in their L6 games, and they're 3-7 SU in their L10 games. They're also 1-5 ATS in their L6 games on the road. On the other side, Detroit are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games, and they're 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games at home. Back the Lions at home on MNF. Jimmy G or not (he'll play), this is a double-digit win for the Lions who get back on track. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NFL ATS Play
10-29-23	Ravens v. Cardinals +9		31-24	Win	100	87 h 1 m	Show
Cardinals +9 In Week 8, the Ravens (5-2, 5-2 ATS) hit the road to face the Cardinals (1-6, 3-4 ATS). The game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, and on TV on CBS. When it comes to NFL Week 8 betting odds, the Moneyline shows the Ravens at -400 and the Cardinals at +325. Additionally, the ATS line is set at Ravens -8.5, and the Over/Under (O/U) stands at 44.5 points. The Cardinals suffered a 20-10 loss on the road against Seattle, entering this matchup as 10-point underdogs. On the other hand, the Ravens are riding high with two consecutive victories, the most recent being a 38-6 home W against Detroit. Hold your nose on this one. The Cards are the move here though as this is an interesting spot. Baltimore caught all the attention after their throttling last week against the Lions. Baltimore looked like they were a top team in the entire league, dominating on both sides of the ball. This is a bit of a trap spot. Everyone will see this and look at the 1-6 Cards and think it's an easy win for the Ravens. But this is a big let down spot. Arizona went toe to toe with the Seahawks last week in a low scoring game. Arizona can lean on their defense here and try to force some long yardage situations for this Ravens offense. If they can sustain drives offensively and slow the tempo down, they'll have this Ravens team frustrated. We're playing this to be a low scoring game and for it to be close throughout. Weather won't be a factor. A trend to note, Baltimore are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games against Arizona, also, Arizona is winning the turnover differential here at +1. The Ravens are -3. So there's that. HOME DOGS FTW. Back the Desert Dogs on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NFL ATS Play
10-29-23	Rams v. Cowboys -6		20-43	Win	100	44 h 54 m	Show
Cowboys -6 Sunday, it's the Rams (3-4, 4-2-1 ATS) versus the Cowboys (4-2, 4-2 ATS). The game will start at 1:00 PM ET in Arlington, TX, at AT&T Stadium. You can watch it on FOX. In their previous games, the Rams lost 24-17 to the Steelers, and the Cowboys beat the Chargers 20-17. The latest betting odds are as follows: Cowboys are favored to win with a Moneyline of -276, while the Rams have a Moneyline of +224. The Cowboys are also favored by -6 on the Spread, and the Total points O/U is set at 45.5. Dallas is the move here. The Cowboys have found some consistency and now they return home where they have played just twice this year. Typically, the Cowboys have had success in the past at home and now they will see a string of games where most will be inside this building. This Dallas side will lean on their defense. They rank third in the NFL in total defense, allowing just 288.7 yards per game. They should be able to have the Rams on their heels, as they love to put together a lot of different blitz packages. Look for them to force Los Angeles into some long yardage situations and get off the field on third down. When these two teams have faced off before, the Cowboys have won 15 times in regular-season games and 4 times in the playoffs, while the Rams have won 13 regular-season games and lost 5 playoff games against them. The Cowboys are averaging 25.67PPG, the Rams 22.14PPG. The Cowboys only allow 16PPG, the Rams 20PPG. Cowboys are 6-4 vs. the Rams in the L10 averaging 28PPG to LAR's 20PPG in those L10 games. Some trends to note, Rams are 5-13 SU in their L18 games, and are 1-4 ATS in their L5 games when playing on the road against Dallas. On the other side Dallas are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games, are 11-5 SU in their last 16 games, and lastly they're 10-0 SU in their last 10 games at home. I'm on the Boys on Sunday -6. They'll win this by 10+. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play
10-29-23	Texans v. Panthers +3.5		13-15	Win	100	44 h 32 m	Show
Panthers +3.5 On Sunday, the Texans (3-3, 4-2 ATS) will face off against the Panthers (0-6, 0-5-1 ATS) in a game that features rookie quarterbacks C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young. The matchup will take place at 1:00 PM ET at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC and will be broadcast on FOX. The Panthers are coming into this game after a bye week, following a 42-21 loss to the Dolphins in Week 6. Meanwhile, Houston also had a bye week and are coming off a 20-13 W over the Saints. In terms of odds, the Texans are favored with a -185 Moneyline (straight up odds), while the Panthers stand at +150. The Texans are also favored by 3.5 points against the spread (ATS), and the over/under (total points) is set at 43.5. The Panthers are looking to right this ship and find the win column. This is the perfect matchup as they take on a Texans team that isn't overpowering by any means. Carolina can find success here on both sides of the ball. The Texans rank 25th in the NFL on the ground, as they have been extremely inconsistent. The lack of rushing attack will play into the Panthers favor here, as they know Houston will have a tough time moving the ball. Look for this game to be a grind it out kind of one, where the Panthers will have to sustain drives and keep this offense on the field. With two similar styles, it should be close throughout here. Carolina has still exceeded 20 points on three different occasions this year, so they can put their share of points up. Weather won't be a factor. The Texans come in averaging 22.5PPG, Carolina 18PPG. The Texans allow 18PPG, and the Panthers 31PPG. I'm backing Bryce Young to be the better of the two rookie QB's this week. A new play caller during the bye week is the medicine he needed. The Panthers however are a top 10 team in the Redzone. So, they've got that going for them. Looking at their past encounters, these two haven't faced each other often. The Panthers hold a 4-2 all-time record against Houston, with a 1-1 record at home and they're also 3-1 away. Some trends to note, Houston are 5-13 SU in their L18 games, and they're 1-4 ATS in their L5 games against Carolina. On the other side the Panthers are 4-0-1 ATS in their L5 games as a home underdog of 0.5 to 3, and finally they're 10-1 SU in their L11 games against an opponent in the AFC South. Carolina could win this outright and get off the schneid. Take the Panthers on Sunday and grab the points. (All of em') Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play
10-29-23	San Jose State -10.5 v. Hawaii		35-0	Win	100	71 h 52 m	Show
San Jose State -10.5 The Spartans (3-5, 5-2-1 ATS) and the Warriors (2-6, 1-6 ATS) are set to face off on a late Saturday night at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu, HI. This matchup features two Mountain West Conference (MWC) teams. In terms of betting, the Spartans are favored by -10.5 to -11 points, with an over/under total line of 61.5. For those looking at the moneyline, SJST stands at -415, while Hawaii is at +355. Hawaii is coming off a 42-21 loss to New Mexico, while the Spartans are entering this game fresh from a 42-21 victory over the Utah State Aggies. San Jose State is the play late Saturday. If you're looking for a late night bail out, look no further. The final game on the board sends San Jose State into Hawaii at midnight eastern time. We're backing the visitors here, as they are coming in with a ton of confidence. The Spartans have won back to back games and they/ve done it in dominant fashion. They've averaged 47 points per game in those two wins as New Mexico State and Utah State had no chance. They were able to establish the ground game, which wore down the opposition. They got things going early, which wore down the opposing defenses. They should be able to do the same to Hawaii here, who has had a ton of issues stopping the run. SJSU QB Chevan Cordeiro will also have a lot of incentive here. He transferred from Hawaii and will look to beat his old team in a stadium he has plenty of experience in. SIDENOTE: I was at this game in Hawaii a few years ago just before COVID shut down the world (while on a family vacation) and let me tell you. SJST travels well. There were some good scraps in the stands! This may feel like a travelling "home game" for them. LOL Some trends to note, Spartans are 4-0 ATS in their L4 road games, and are 4-1-1 ATS in their L6. For Hawaii, they're 0-4-1 ATS in their L5 games overall, and they're 0-4 ATS in their L4 games as a dog. Aloha! We're backing the Spartans in Honolulu on Saturday night. A nice bail you out play!

Wisconsin +14.5 The Buckeyes (7-0, 4-0 in the Big Ten, with a 4-3 ATS record) are set to face the Wisconsin Badgers (5-2, 3-1, and 2-4-1 ATS) this Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin. The game is scheduled to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be televised on NBC. Taking a glance at the betting odds, the Moneyline (ML) shows Ohio State as the favorite at -630, while Wisconsin stands at +450. The point spread (ATS) favors Ohio State by -14 points, and the Over/Under (O/U) total is set at 44.5. In their recent matchups, the Buckeyes secured a 20-12 victory over Penn State in a thrilling top-10 showdown at The Horseshoe. Meanwhile, the Badgers faced a setback, losing 15-6 to Iowa in Madison two weeks ago, but they bounced back with a 25-21 road win against Illinois in Week 8. We're on Wisconsin here, with the points. A night game, at Camp Randall, with a top team in the country coming in. This has the makings of a trap game following the Nittany Lions game for the Buckeyes. Ohio State's win wasn't pretty, but they continued their trek toward the Playoff. This is the kind of game where they need to be careful. Wisconsin isn't going to wow anyone by any means. However, they have the ability to frustrate opposing teams. They establish the run game per usual and if they can get it going, things are going to get dicey. The Badgers can wear teams down and then you combine a night crowd here and this is a spot where they can keep things close. Wisconsin can keep the ball out of the Buckeyes offensive hands and slow this game down to a tempo they favor. Ohio State looked great vs. Penn St. but the Badgers present some different challenges for sure. Some trends to note, Badgers are 10-1 ATS in their L11 games as a home underdog, and are 4-1 SU in their L5 games, finally, they're 8-3 SU in their L11 games played in October. Back the Badgers here on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB ATS Play
10-28-23	USC v. California +10.5		50-49	Win	100	6 h 16 m	Show
Cal +10.5 Saturday brings an interesting clash between USC (6-2, 2-1 on road) vs. California (3-4, 2-2 at home). This one kicks off at 4pm ET at the California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, CA. Catch the excitement on TV on the Pac-12 Network. USC holds the upper hand with an 11-point advantage. If you're considering the moneyline, USC is at -457, while California is at +335. For those interested in totals betting, the Over/Under is set at 67.5 points. After last week's loss to Utah I'm not sure USC has much left in the tank. Plus that loss all but ended their playoff hopes too! Not how Caleb Williams drew this season up. The schedule USC has played in 2023 has been a grind. They're tired and are allowing over 30PPG, and the fatigue is showing. AND it's not over yet. (USC still has UW, Oregon and UCLA on the schedule) CAL is coming into this one rested and off a bye week. That's a huge advantage at this point of the season. Especially for game-planning purposes. I'm expecting a run-heavy game by the Bears. Jaydn Ott will get the ball early and often. Ball control is the name of the game here. In 2022 Cal gave USC all they could handle losing 41-35. I'm not sure I expect this many points on Saturday but I think Cal could win this one outright. If not outright, chances are HIGH for an ATS cover. Some trends to note, USC hasn't done well lately. They're 0-5 in their L5 ATS, and they're 1-5 ATS in their L6 vs. CAL. USC also isn't a fan of October. Losing 8 of their L10 in Oct. Plus the Golden Bears are 4-0 ATS in their L4 games as a home favorite of 3.5-10.5. Back the Bears on Saturday as home dogs. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* NCAA ATS Play
10-28-23	Oregon v. Utah +6.5		35-6	Loss	-109	62 h 14 m	Show
Utah +6.5 The 9th-ranked Ducks (6-1, 5-1-1 ATS) are set to face off against the 13th-ranked Utes (6-1, 4-1-1 ATS) in a Pac-12 showdown Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, UT. The Ducks are favored by 6.5 points, and the Over/Under Total for the game is set at 48. For those interested in the moneyline, Oregon is at -250, while Utah stands at +203. Utah's recent game was a thrilling 34-32 victory against the USC Trojans, a match I watched closely and can attest to the Utes' prowess. On the other hand, the Ducks are entering this matchup fresh off a 38-24 triumph over the WSU Cougars. We're playing Utah here, as they continue to find a ton of success. This team just is consistent at giving everyone frustrations and putting up good performances. They come in with all the momentum right now as well, after beating USC on a last second field goal. Every week, they get a different hero and they match up well with this Oregon side. The Ducks are going to play at an uncomfortable pace. The Utes slow things down and will look to move the chains on drives. That will have Oregon off their game, as they will struggle to find any sort of rhythm. Despite the slow pace, the Utes still can put up big plays too. They have scored over 30 in back to back weeks and should find plenty of success against Oregon's defense that has plenty of issues to deal with. They also have the coaching advantage here. I know I know Ducks fans...you disagree with me. BUT Kyle Whittingham for my money is the best college football coach in the nation! COME AT ME BRO! LOL Some trends to note, Utah are 6-1 SU in their L7 games, and are a mind-blowing 18-0 SU in their L18 games at home, and finally they're 17-3 SU in their L20 games against an opponent in the Pac-12 conference. We're backing the Utes again this week after cashing on them in Week 8. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play
10-28-23	Florida State v. Wake Forest +21		41-16	Loss	-111	20 h 11 m	Show
Wake Forest +21 There's a big game this Saturday between two different teams that look to be going in different directions in 2023. The FSU Seminoles (7-0, 5-0 ACC, 5-2 ATS) are playing against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-3, 1-3 ACC, 3-4 ATS) at noon ET on ABC at Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium in Winston-Salem. The latest betting info on the ML has FSU as a -1400 favorite (Risk $1400 to win $100?) But if you choose Wake Forest and they win, you'd get $800 for your $100. If you like point spreads, Florida State is -21 ATS, and the total points expected in the game is 51.5. These teams have been playing since 1956. Florida State has won 30 times, Wake Forest 9 times, and they tied 1x. When FSU plays in Winston-Salem, they've won 9/14. Wake has won 3x in a row recently vs. FSU. Wake Forest catches Florida State in a nice spot here. This could be the kind of game where FSU doesn't come out with the same intensity as they've had in the recent weeks. The Demon Deacons also get back QB Mitch Griffis, who has been able to produce some good games here thus far. This offense works far better with him calling the shots and they should find some success against this Noles defense. Given the look ahead spot here, the Seminoles are going to not be as aggressive. They were taken to the brink against the Blue Devils last week and now they go down a step in competition. Wake should be able to keep this close and find the end zone a few times, putting a little pressure on FSU. Some trends to note, FSU are 1-5-1 ATS in their L7 games against Wake, and are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games as a road favorite of 10.5 or greater. On the other side Wake Forest are 17-3 SU in their L20 games at home, and WF is 13-3 SU in their L16 games in OCT. Wake Forest will do all they can to keep this one within the number on Saturday. +21 is there for the taking. +20.5 is OK too. I'm on Wake Forest +21 this weekend. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-26-23	Bucs v. Bills -9		18-24	Loss	-110	17 h 19 m	Show
Bills -9 In Week 8, it's the Buccaneers (3-3) versus the Bills (4-3) on Amazon's TNF. They'll be facing off at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo, NY, with kickoff set for 8:15pm ET. The Moneyline (ML) offers the Bucs at +320 and the Bills at -405 for those who prefer straight up bets. ATS lines, the Bills are favored by -9, and the Over/Under (O/U) is set between 42.5 up to 43.5. Last games for each saw Buffalo suffer a 29-25 defeat on the road against the Patriots, while the Bucs had a disappointing 16-13 loss to the Falcons. Weather won't be a factor. Game time temps call for low 70's, and no rain. For starters the Bucs can't run the ball, so that makes them 1-dimensional. Buffalo, while banged up should be licking their chops to come after Baker on Thursday in Full Old School Buffalo Blitzkrieg mode. (Is Bruce Smith available?) Baker is going to have to go full on check-down Baker to move the ball on Thursday night. The Bucs have lost 3 of 4 and this could be one of the last times we see Baker Mayfield at QB. YES it's that bad! Check out their injury report. They can't run the ball (as I said) as it is, now they have O-lineman missing games (likely 2), and their best defensive player Vita Vea is a possible GTD. The Bills are a top 15 team in the NFL in both Passing and Rushing, and they're #2 in points scored. Allen is having a solid season, currently 5th in the NFL for passing yards with 1,841 in 7 games. Averaging 263YPG with a 70% completion rate. He also has tossed 15 TD's to only 7 INT's. (3 weren't his fault) These are numbers Baker just can't touch, and there's just no way TB can keep up with Buffalo on the scoreboard. Some trends to note, Buffalo are 12-4 SU in their L16 games, and they're 15-3 SU in their L18 games at home. On the other side TB are 4-10 ATS in their L14 games, and are 0-6 ATS in their L6 games against AFC teams. Bills win by 12+. We're backing the Bills ATS on Thursday Night Football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. TNF 8* NFL ATS Play
10-26-23	Syracuse v. Virginia Tech -3		10-38	Win	100	19 h 56 m	Show
Va Tech -3 Get ready for an ACC showdown as the Hokies (3-4, 2-1 ACC, 3-3-1 ATS) take on the Orange (4-3, 0-3, 4-3 ATS) in college football Week 9. The odds for this game favor the Hokies at -3, with the total points expected at 47. If you're into straight-up betting, the odds stand at Orange +120 and Hokies -142. The Hokies have been on a decent streak, winning two out of their last three games, while the Orange are on a three-game losing skid in ACC conference play. Both teams had a bye in Week 8. In their previous outings, the Hokies secured a solid 30-13 victory against WF, while the Orange suffered a tough 41-3 loss to the Seminoles. Virginia Tech is the play on Thursday! We get a small line here on the Hokies, at home. Virginia Tech comes in 3-1 this season at home and with a night game on a Thursday, this crowd should be rocking to Enter Sandman. The Orange have just been far too inconsistent to trust as well. They come 4-3 overall, but they're just 1-2 on the road. They limp into play after being just knocked around by the Tar Heels and the Seminoles in the past two weeks. We've seen them struggle at times on the defensive end, which knocks them out of their rhythm on the other side of the ball. Virginia Tech should be able to dictate the pace here. Look for them to wear down this Syracuse defensive line and eventually start to get a big push up front. Weather looks good call it high 60's low 70's at game time, and no chance of rain. Some trends to note, Syracuse are 1-5 ATS in their L6 games on the road, and they're 2-4 ATS in their L6 games when playing on the road against Va. Tech. The Hokies are the better team here and they're laying a small number. Back the Hokies on Thursday night! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CFB ATS Play
10-25-23	UTEP +3.5 v. Sam Houston State		37-34	Win	100	20 h 57 m	Show
UTEP +3.5 On Wednesday it's a Conference USA football matchup featuring the UTEP Miners, currently holding a 2-6 record overall and 1-3 in their conference. They had a disheartening 28-7 defeat to New Mexico State last week. On the other hand, Sam Houston, with a winless 0-7 record overall and 0-4 in conference play, is seeking their first victory after a tough 33-27 overtime loss at home to FIU. The game is scheduled to kick off at 8 p.m. ET at Elliott T. Bowers Stadium. According to the current live odds, Sam Houston is favored by 3.5 points, and the over/under for total points scored is set at 36. For those interested in straight-up betting, the moneyline odds stand at -177 for Sam Houston and +148 for UTEP. We're on UTEP here, as they get points on the road. This is the pure fact off taking a team going against a winless team and getting points. Sam Houston State is 0-7 this year and while they've continued to be close in games, they still can't find a way to win. They've continued to fail in clutch time and with another game expected to be close, we're going to see this one go either way. UTEP isn't a pushover either. While they have just 2 wins, one of those was a win a few weeks ago on the road. They have played well at times on the defensive end and will lean on their defense to make some big plays here. Look for this to be close throughout, with the points being the move here. Some trends to note, UTEP are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games played in October. On the other side, Sam Houston State are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games, and they're 0-5 SU in their last 5 games against an opponent in CUSA. Back UTEP ATS on Humpday! Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Eagles -3 Tonight on Sunday Night Football, two former Alabama Crimson Tide teammates, Tagovailoa and Hurts, meet for the first time in their NFL careers. The Dolphins (5-1, 5-1 ATS) clash with the Eagles (5-1, 3-2-1 ATS) at 8:20 PM ET in Lincoln Financial Field, airing on NBC. Philadelphia is favored at -1.5 ATS, while for straight-up bettors, Miami offers +109, and Philadelphia stands at -133 on the ML. As for the NFL Betting Total, it's set at O/U 52. We’re backing the Eagles on Sunday night football. Miami’s defense has had its issues and they will have their hands full with this Phili attack. Philadelphia welcomes in the Dolphins and it’s always tough to go into Phili and come out with a win. The Eagles are in a full bounce back spot too. They were upset by the Jets last week and we’ve seen this team rarely let losses pile up. This is a game where they can feed off the home crowd, at night. Look for the Eagles to open the playbook early too, knowing they have to find momentum to erase last week. This offense can strike in so many different ways and they’re worth playing here. The Eagles are 12-1 in games played in Sept/Oct the L2 years, which is of course the best record over that time in the NFL. The loss? Was to the Jets (last week). Weather won't trouble the Eagles, but it might be a tad chilly for Miami with a forecasted 10mph wind and game-time temperatures between 45-50°F. Some trends to note, Miami are 2-6 ATS in their L8 games against Philadelphia. On the other side, Philadelphia are 5-1 SU in their L6 games, and are 4-1 SU in their L5 games at home, and they're 10-4 ATS in their L14 games against an opponent in the AFC East. Back the Eagles to cover the 3 on SNF. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play
10-22-23	Steelers v. Rams -3		24-17	Loss	-110	125 h 29 m	Show
Rams -3 The Steelers (3-2, 3-2 ATS) take on the Rams (3-3, 4-1-1 ATS) this Sunday at SoFi Stadium in NFL Week 7 action. Kickoff is at 4:05 p.m. EST, and you can watch it on FOX. In the NFL Week 7 odds, the Rams are favored by 3.5 points over the Steelers. The moneyline odds show the Rams at -175 and the Steelers at +145. The total points for the game are set at 42.5. The Rams have value here, at home. Los Angeles comes in after beating down the Cardinals last week. They were able to pick up yards in chunks and really had Arizona on their heels early. On the other side, Pittsburgh has been atrocious offensively. They rank 27th in yards per play and 32nd in red zone offense. They have had so many issues top to bottom even just moving the ball. This is going to be another game where they struggle to get anything going. Look for the Rams to blitz all night long and really put Pickett in some trouble. The Steelers had a bye week in NFL Week 6, while the Rams are coming off a solid 26-9 win against the Arizona Cardinals. These teams have clashed 27 times in their history, including one playoff game. The Steelers have won 10 times, the Rams 15, and they've tied twice. Some trends to note, the Steelers are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games when playing on the road against LA. The Rams are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games, are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games at home. Plus if you like this sort of trend the Rams are 5-0 SU in their L5 games played in week 7. The Steelers don't have an answer for Kupp, and he can win this one by himself. Back the Rams to take down the Steel Curtain on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play

Seahawks -7.5 Sunday the Cardinals (1-5 SU, 3-3 ATS) will be going head-to-head with the Seahawks (3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS) at 4:05 ET at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington. The current Week 7 ATS Betting Lines lean in favor of Seattle, with a spread ranging from -7.5 to -8 points. When it comes to the NFL Moneyline Odds, Arizona stands at +300, Seattle -385. The NFL Betting Total is set at O/U 44.5. Both teams faced losses in Week 6, as the Seahawks fell 17-13 to the Bengals, and the Cardinals suffered a 26-9 loss to the Rams. We’re on the Seahawks, laying the number. Seattle is just far better than Arizona. The Cardinals come in with 3 straight losses in games they didn’t have any sort of chance in. Defensively they rank near the bottom in almost every category and they haven’t been able to slow anyone down. Seattle is in the midst of looking to rebound after dropping a tough one to the Bengals last week. Prior to that they had won 3 in a row themselves and they should be able to dictate a lot in this game. Look for them to control the possession clock and sustain drives, which should open up passing lanes for Smith to find Lockett (who I expect to have a big game), & Metcalf down field all day. I also think the run game with Charbonnet and Walker III will run up the stats in this one. Some trends to note, Arizona are 1-12 SU in their last 13 games., and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against Seattle, finally they're 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against the Seahawks. A deeper dive into their history reveals that the Seahawks and Cardinals have clashed 48 times, with Seattle winning 25 games, the Cardinals 22, and a tie. Last year, they met twice, with the Seahawks prevailing in both matchups by a 10-point margin each time. Sunday weather shouldn't be a factor, mid 50's with a 25% chance of rain. (Normal for the PNW) We're backing the Seahawks by -7.5 on Sunday in Seattle. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL ATS Play

Raiders -3 The Raiders (3-3, 3-3 ATS) will face the Bears (1-5, 1-4-1 ATS) this Sunday at Soldier Field during NFL Week 7 action. You can catch the game at 1pm ET on FOX. The betting odds give the Raiders a 3-point advantage as the favorites, with Las Vegas at -155 on the moneyline and Chicago at +130. The over/under point total is set at 38.5. In their recent games, the Raiders secured a 21-17 victory against the Patriots, while the Bears suffered a 19-13 defeat at the hands of the Vikings. We’re on the raiders here in this one. Las Vegas takes on a beaten and bruised Bears team. They will start undrafted free agent Tyson Bagent in this one. Fields continues to recover from a dislocated right thumb. The Raiders will also be on the backup train, with likely Brian Hoyer as their option. From their perspective, at least Hoyer does have a lot of NFL experience and won’t be overwhelmed in this spot. Expect them to lean on the run game here and give Hoyer some short options early when it comes to passing the ball. Defensively, they will blitz all day and try to rattled Bagent. Some trends to note, Chicago are 1-15 SU in their last 16 games, 0-10 SU in their last 10 games at home, and they're 2-11-1 ATS in their last 14 games. These two teams have faced off 16 times in their history, with both the Bears and the Raiders winning 8 games each. The Bears' last triumph was a 20-9 victory back in October 2021. Back the RAAAAAIIIIIIDDDDERS on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play

Bills -7.5 In this week's NFL betting spotlight, the Bills (4-2, 3-3 ATS) will clash with the struggling Patriots (1-5, 1-5 ATS). The game is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 22nd, with kickoff at 1:00 ET, taking place at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA. As for the odds in NFL Week 7, the Bills are favored with an -7.5 to 8-point spread, -396 for the ML, while the Patriots are the underdogs at +309. The over/under is set at 41.5. The Bills are the move here. The Pats are returning home following a tough 21-17 loss in Las Vegas, aiming to reverse their fortunes. Meanwhile, the Bills are riding the momentum of a close 17-9 victory against the Giants on Sunday night. It's worth noting that the Patriots are currently on a three-game losing streak at home, and last season, the Bills had the edge with a 2-0 record in their head-to-head matchups. New England is just an absolute wreck. This team has dropped 3 in a row and they look awful on both sides of the ball. They haven’t been able to slow anyone down when it comes to the big play and offensively they just look off. Buffalo hasn’t played up to their standards either, but they’ve found ways to get timely plays when they need to. The Bills survived the Giants last week, but should find way more success here when it comes to moving the ball. Josh Allen and this offense will open things up early here, as they attempt to get their rhythm back. They’re just too powerful and have far more of an edge in this matchup. Some trends to note, Buffalo are 12-3 SU in their L15 games, 5-1 ATS in their L6 games against the Pats, and 6-1 SU in their L7 games against the Pats as well. On the other side, New England are 1-6 SU in their L7 games, and 0-6 ATS in their L6 games at home. These two teams have a storied history, having faced off 127 times, with the Patriots winning 77 times, the Bills claiming victory 49 times, and one game ending in a tie. The Bills have beaten the Patriots in 4 of the last 5 h2h. They've won by 12, 14, 30, and 12 in those 4 wins. Back the Bills in Foxboro on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NFL ATS Play
10-21-23	Utah +7 v. USC		34-32	Win	100	99 h 23 m	Show
Utah +7 A Pac-12 showdown Saturday! It's a classic in the making as the #16 USC Trojans (6-1, 2-5 ATS) square off against the #14 Utah Utes (5-1, 3-2-1 ATS) at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The game kicks off at 8:00 PM ET and takes place in LA, airing on FOX. Here are the latest betting odds: USC (-7) as the favored team, USC (-253) on the Moneyline, and Utah (+205) for straight bets. The Over/Under Total stands at 56. These two teams clashed in a memorable showdown last year during the Pac-12 Championship Game, with the Utes clinching a second consecutive victory at 47-24. USC boasts a strong offense, but Utah's defense is a force to be reckoned with, ranking 3rd in the nation in EPA per play. In their historical series, USC holds a 12-9 lead, with their first meeting dating all the way back to 1915, resulting in a 20-13 win for Utah. This is an interesting number. Utah has been without a starting QB all season, but they have shown they can compete with the best of them. Combine that with the Trojans coming in off an embarrassing loss to Notre Dame last week and this is a tale of two different sides right now. The Trojans had a lot of flaws exposed in their loss to the Fighting Irish. They were unable to move the ball like they're used to and their inability to slow teams down defensively is starting to become a big issue. Utah can work the run game and open up passing lanes, as every team for the most part that has played USC thus far has lit them up, especially in the secondary. Some trends to note, Utah are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games, and they're 4-2 SU in their last 6 games against USC. For USC they're 1-4 ATS in the L5, and 2-5 ATS in their L7 Saturday matchups. At the end of the day I think Utah is a better team than Notre Dame. Just my .2c. AND look what the Irish did to SC. We're backing the Utes in this Pac 12 clash. The occasion will NOT be too big for them. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB ATS Play

Coastal Carolina -8.5 Week 8 of NCAA action features an exciting showdown between the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, with a record of 3-3 (4-2 ATS), and the Arkansas State Red Wolves, who stand at 3-3 (2-3-1 ATS). The game kicks off Saturday at Centennial Bank Stadium in Jonesboro, Arkansas, where the weather promises to be AOK (temps in the 80s, and winds below 10mph). As for the betting odds, Coastal Carolina is favored with a Moneyline of -386, while Arkansas State holds +296 odds. The Chanticleers are also favored by 10.5 points according to the ATS odds, with an Over/Under set at 61 points. When it comes to scoring, Coastal Carolina ranks 54th nationally, averaging 30PPG, while Arkansas State lags behind at 77th with 22PPG. On the defensive front, the Chanticleers allow an average of 23PPG, placing them 71st in the nation, whereas the Red Wolves have a less stellar defense, allowing 36PPG and sitting at 119th. In their recent matchup, the Chanticleers triumphed over App State 27-24. Meanwhile, the Red Wolves faced a tough defeat, suffering a 37-3 loss against Troy. I've got my popcorn ready, and I can't wait to see how ARKST plans to slow down McCall, Bennett, Pinckney and the rest of the CC offense. The Wolves are honestly one of the worst defensive teams in the country, 260+ passing yards allowed per game, 190+ rush yards per game, plus they've given up a CRAPTON of points this year. CC's offense will have a hay-day here. Troy dominated the Wolves, and Raynor was running for his life. Queue the CC defense. They're licking their chops to get after Raynor on Saturday. CC is feeling good about life right now, and you know they want to keep the train-a-rollin' vs. the Wolves. Some trends to note, CC are 4-2 ATS in their L6, and 10-0 SU in their L10 vs. West division opponents. On the other side ARK St. are 5-12 SU in their L17, and 1-5-1 ATS in their L7 at home, and finally they're 1-7 in their L8 vs. Sun Belt teams. This matchup promises an exciting clash of strengths and strategies on the gridiron. I can't wait to see this one actually. We're on the Chanticleers! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play

Here are the current Week 8 ATS Betting Lines: Texas -22.5, with Moneyline Odds of Texas -2097 and Houston +980. The Total is O/U 61.5. Historically, Houston has a record of 7-16-2 against UT, with a home record of 3-7-1. Last season, they didn't play each other. Houston comes off a thrilling 41-39 win over West Virginia, while Texas is back after a bye week, recovering from a tough loss to OU in the Red River Rivalry. We're on Texas here, laying the points. This is a total mismatch on Saturday. The Longhorns are just too powerful when it comes to the offensive side. The Cougars simply won't be able to keep up. Texas had a full week to think about their loss to Oklahoma and they're going to come out with some frustration. They were unable to get a stop late and now they will take on one of the worst defenses in the Big 12. Houston has been torched left and right, allowing many big plays to opposing Qbs. Texas is going to come into this one with a wide open playbook. They're going to take plenty of chances downfield, especially early on. Houston's defense ranks near the bottom in a lot of categories and those will be shown on Saturday here. Some trends to note, Texas are 5-1 SU in their L6 games. On the other side, Houston are 1-8 SU in their L9 games against an opponent in the Big 12, also, Houston are 2-6 ATS in their L8 games played on a Saturday when playing at home. There's been a few "battles of Texas" this week in the sports world. Saturday we're on TEXAS (UT) to take down Houston. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* CFB ATS Play
10-21-23	Wisconsin -2.5 v. Illinois		25-21	Win	100	23 h 39 m	Show
Wisconsin -2.5 In Week 8 the (4-2, 2-4 ATS) Badgers face off against the (3-4, 1-6 ATS) Fighting Illini in a Big 10 showdown scheduled for Saturday at 3:30 ET. The battleground for this fierce clash will be Memorial Stadium in Champaign, IL. Last week, the Badgers faced a setback, suffering a 15-6 loss to the Hawkeyes, while the Illini emerged victorious with a 27-24 W over the Terrapins. The Week 8 ATS betting lines have Wisconsin as the favorites with a -2.5 point spread, accompanied by moneyline odds of -133 for Wisconsin and +111 for Illinois. The over/under for the game is set at 42.5 points. Wisconsin enters this matchup hungry for revenge, especially after their previous encounter resulted in a resounding 34-10 victory for Illinois. The Badgers have to come out with a better gameplan here. We do get a nice line as they will go with their backup QB in this spot on Saturday in Illinois. The good thing here is that this Illinois side has far too many problems on both sides of the ball. The Badgers are going to lean on this run game to wear down Illinois. Combine that with their defense still being one of the best in the conference and they have a huge edge in this spot. This should be an ugly game, but a game in which is played to the Badgers liking. They love to slow the tempo down and wear the opposition out with their push up front. If they can get that going early, it's going to be a long day for the Fighting Illini. Some trends to note, Wisconsin are 5-2 SU in their L7, and are 11-2 in their L13 vs. the Illini. Illinois are 1-7 ATS in their L8, and 0-6 ATS in their L6 at home. Wisconsin maintains a series record lead of 44-39-7. Over the L10 between these two school's the Badgers own an 8-2 advantage. We're riding the Badgers on Saturday in B10 action.

10-21-23	Penn State v. Ohio State -3.5	Top	12-20	Win	100	92 h 42 m	Show
Ohio State -3.5 In the upcoming week, there's a significant clash in the Big 10 as two unbeaten teams from the East Division face off. #3 Ohio State (6-0, 3-2-1 ATS) will be hosting #7 Penn State (6-0, 6-0 ATS, 3-0 Big Ten) on Saturday at 12 p.m. ET, and you can catch it on the Fox network. Let's take a look at the betting numbers: Moneyline (ML) shows Penn State at +164 and Ohio State at -200. Against the spread (ATS) favors Ohio State by -5.5 (-102), and the Over/Under (O/U) stands at 48.5. Last week, Penn State dominated the Minutemen with a score of 63-0, while the Buckeyes faced the Boilermakers, defeating them 41-7. Ohio State holds a strong historical record against Penn State, leading 23-14, with 6 consecutive wins and victory in 10 of their last 11 meetings. PSU's last win in Happy Valley dates back to 2016. We see the value lays with OSU this week! We love -3.5, we're good with -4. Ohio State has dominated this head to head series. Coming into Saturday, the Buckeyes have won 6 straight in this head to head series and 11 of the last 12 overall against Penn State. The Buckeyes will look to gain some key pieces back from injury, which includes Henderson, Williams, and Trayanum. All 3 are banged up, but when healthy they are the most dangerous trio in the backfield in the nation. The Buckeyes are just going to feed off this home crowd energy and look to set the tone early. Ohio State has been at their best when they can establish a run game, which opens things up for this passing side. This will be by far Penn State's hardest opponent to date and they're just going to have too much to overcome. Some trends to note, Penn State are 0-5 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against the Buckeyes, and they're 0-6 SU in their last 6 games against Ohio State. On the other side the Ohio State are 16-1 SU in their last 17 games at home, and they're 12-2-1 ATS in their last 15 games played in October. PSU lost to the Buckeyes last year 44-31. We're on the Buckeyes on Saturday in this huge Big 10 matchup. Good Luck, Razor Ray. RARE Saturday 10* CFB Top ATS Play
10-19-23	Jaguars v. Saints		31-24	Loss	-110	52 h 29 m	Show
Saints PK (-110) @ Circa The Saints, 3-3 this season and not doing so well at 1-4-1 ATS, aim to turn things around. They kick off Week 7 in NFL action against the Jaguars, who are 4-2, just like their 4-2 ATS. This game happens on Thursday Night Football. The action starts at 8:15 p.m. ET in the Caesars Superdome, available on Amazon Prime. In the betting world, New Orleans started as -3 favorites but is now -1 or even pick'em at some sportsbooks. The over/under is 39 points, and the money line is -157 for New Orleans and +134 for Jacksonville. We’re on the Saints here, at home. Saints had a good start with two wins but hit a rough patch, losing three of the last four, including a 20-13 loss to the Texans. On the other hand, the Jaguars are on fire, with three straight wins and a solid 37-20 home victory over the Colts. Historically, the Saints have dominated the Jags, winning 5 of the last 7, including the past 4. At home, they hold a perfect 3-0 record against Jacksonville, scoring at least 38 points in their last two. This is a fade of the Jags given the health issues they’re going through right now. Jacksonville continues to battle key injuries, one of which sits with Trevor Lawrence. He has been on another level as of late, but a sprained left knee has him not only questionable, but even if he plays not close to 100%. The Saints come in 3-3 as they have leaned on their defense thus far. We’ve seen them cause so many issues with the various blitz packages they’ve put together and have been able to force turnovers. Derek Carr has been up and down, but does come in off a game where he launched for 400 yards. He’s been much more comfortable as of late and should be able to have success against this Jags secondary. Some trends to note, the Jags are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against New Orleans, and they're 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games against the Saints. The Saints are 12-4 SU in their last 16 games against an opponent in the AFC South, and they're 14-6 SU in their last 20 games played in October. My money is on the Saints defense at home showing up and being the X-factor for this matchup. Update: Lawrence is officially listed as questionable, but he was optimistic on Tuesday that he would be able to play. Beathard says Lawrence "likely" plays. WE like the Saints on Thursday night football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NFL ATS Play
10-19-23	James Madison -3.5 v. Marshall		20-9	Win	100	8 h 30 m	Show
James Madison -3.5 Thursday night college football in Week 8. It's the James Madison Dukes (6-0, 4-2 ATS) taking on the Marshall Thundering Herd (4-2, 2-4 ATS) at 7:00 ET in Huntington, WV's Joan C. Edwards Stadium, and you can catch it on ESPN. The current betting lines are as follows: JMU is favored by -3.5 points, the over/under is set at 49 points, and the money line shows Dukes at -175 and Thundering Herd at +146. In their history, Marshall has a 3-0 record against JMU, but they're coming off two losses while the Dukes are on the rise after a big win over Georgia Southern (41-13) while Marshall struggled against Georgia State (41-24). The last time Marshall and James Madison faced off came last year, ending in a 26-12 win for Marshall. We’re on James Madison here, laying the points. Marshall has dropped back to back games as it’s been their defense that has completely let them down. They allowed 48 points to NC State and then followed that up with 41 points against in their loss to Georgia State. The confidence is totally gone from their 4-0 start and now they have James Madison rolling into town. The Dukes are a perfect 6-0 and they’ve been dominant on both sides of the ball at times. Offensively, it’s been so tough to slow them down. They have scored over 30 points in 5 of the 6 games, which includes a 41-13 win over GA Southern last week. This is a game where two teams are going in opposite directions. The confidence level sits with James Madison and we’re backing the hotter team here. Marshall’s defense simply will not be able to slow down this offense. Game time weather is a non-factor, should be high 60's to low 70's, with a 10% chance of rain. Some trends to note, the Dukes are 4-1 ATS in their L5, and are 9-0 SU in their L9, and 4-1 in their L5 on the road. Lastly they're 6-0 SU in their L6 vs. Sun Belt teams. On the other side Marshall are 2-4 ATS in their L6. Back JM tonight on Thursday night college football. We aren't Marshall...tonight. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 6* CFB ATS Play
10-18-23	New Mexico State v. UTEP +3.5		28-7	Loss	-115	35 h 38 m	Show
UTEP +3.5 On Wednesday the UTEP Miners (2-5, 2-5 ATS) will play at home against the New Mexico State Aggies (4-3, 5-2 ATS) at Sun Bowl Stadium. You can catch this game on ESPN2. Here are the betting details: The over/under is 48.5, UTEP is getting +3.5 points as the underdogs, and the Aggies are favored to win with a moneyline of -165. In their recent games, the Aggies defeated Sam Houston 27-13, while UTEP secured a 27-14 victory against the FIU Panthers. We’re on UTEP here, grabbing the points at home. Utep comes in with momentum. The Miners threw for over 300 yards in the win as they finally found their offensive production they’ve been waiting for. This is a good matchup for them as they should be able to find success against this Aggies secondary. New Mexico State has been hit or miss but their offense is not overpowering by any means. They have had struggles at times and they’ll be in for a lot of issues with this Utep defense. The Miners love to blitz and will put together some different packages here to confuse them in the backfield. If you check out the way back machine you'll see the Miners have outscored NMST by 34 points in the last 2 matchups. I'm not saying UTEP wins this one outright, I'm saying they'll be in it until the final play of the game. The Aggies defense doesn't scare anyone (23PPG) so I think UTEP can gain some ground in this one. Weather won't be a factor, it'll be in the high 70's and low 80's at gametime. Some trends to note, New Mexico State are 3-17 SU in their last 20 games on the road, and are 3-10 SU in their last 13 games against UTEP. UTEP are 11-2 SU in their last 13 games when playing at home against NMST. Hammer UTEP on Wednesday night! Let's go mining! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* CFB ATS Play

WK ATS The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (4-2, 4-2 ATS, 2-0 in CUSA) and the Jacksonville State Gamecocks (5-2, 4-2-1 ATS, 3-1) will face off on Tuesday at Burgess-Snow Field in Jacksonville, Alabama, in a Conf-USA game. The game is set to start at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be shown on ESPNU. Here are the betting details: Western Kentucky is favored by 7.5 points, the total points scored (over/under) is set at 60, and if you prefer a straight-up bet, the money line odds are Hilltoppers -306 and Jacksonville State +243. WKU has covered their L3 games. We’re on the Hilltoppers, laying the points. Looking at this matchup you may think laying points with a road team against a 5-2 side is a bad move. However, Jax State is not as good as their record indicates. 31-13 loss to Liberty last game out. They’ve lost to Coastal Carolina and Liberty, two of the best teams on their schedule. They simply weren’t able to keep up and eventually were worn down which opened a lot of gaps in the defense. Western Kentucky is a very quick striking team as well. They aren’t shy about throwing the ball and will take plenty of shots down field. The Hilltoppers are averaging 32 PPG and leading the conference in passing YPG (287) and TD's (15). We’re playing this Hilltoppers side who has won back to back games putting up more than 30 points in each of them. This matchup marks the first meeting between these teams since 2003, and WKU has the lead in their historical series, winning four out of five. We've waited long enough trying to see if this would hit -7, but we'll bite on the -7.5. Weather looks good, a non factor. Back the Hilltoppers on Tuesday night. Some trends to note, WK are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games, and are 6-2 SU in their last 8 games. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CFB ATS Play

Cowboys -1 In NFL Week 6, the Cowboys take on the Chargers at SoFi Stadium for Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET. The Cowboys, 3-2, had a tough loss to the 49ers last week, 42-10. The Chargers, 2-2, are on a two-game winning streak after beating the Raiders on Oct. 1, following a bye week. Dallas is a slight 1.5-point favorite in the spread, with a 51-point over/under. The Cowboys have a -126 money line, while the Chargers are at +105. Dallas has the value in this spot. The Cowboys come in with some extra time to prep as it came at the right time. They were knocked around by the 49ers last week and want to erase the blowout loss. The Cowboys will be 100% laser focused on righting the ship after that embarrassment. Dallas has been one of the best teams to come back from losses. Since 2021, the Cowboys have gone 9-1 following a loss. They typically will come out with a huge purpose and not allow things to go sideways in bunches. They also see a banged up Chargers side. Justin Herbert has a fractured middle finger on his non throwing hand. He will be playing but look for that to cause some issues for him. Dallas is explosive and should be able to find success against this Chargers secondary. We’re playing the Cowboys side who is better overall and will come out with something to prove, with a chip on their shoulder, and a lot of purpose early on. The Cowboys record on MNF is 50-38 .568 Win %., the Chargers record on MNF is 25-25 .500 Win %. As far as head to head records go, the Chargers and Cowboys have faced off 12 times. The Chargers won 5 games, while the Cowboys have won 7. The last game a 20-17 Cowboys win in 2021. Coincidentally that matchup did feature Prescott vs. Herbert. Some trends to note, Dallas are 12-6 SU in their last 18 games, and they're 4-1 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against the Chargers. On the other side the Chargers are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games. Back the Cowboys tonight in front of a "home" crowd in LA. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NFL ATS Play

Lions -3 Last week, the Lions beat the Panthers 42-24, and the Bucs, who had a week off, won against New Orleans 26-9 two weeks ago. In NFL week 6, it's the Lions (4-1 SU, 4-1 ATS) against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1 SU, 3-1 ATS). They'll play at Raymond James Stadium at 4:25 pm ET, and you can catch it on FOX. The betting odds show the Lions as favorites with -3 points, while the Bucs are at +3. For the moneyline, Detroit is -165, and Tampa is +145. The total points expected are 44. Detroit is worth the move here. The Lion offense has been in great form as Jared Goff continues to be one of the best at making big plays. Goff comes in with 1265 yards and 9 touchdowns thus far. The biggest thing for him has been limiting turnovers. He has thrown just 3 interceptions as he continues to produce at a high rate. Goff continues to come up with big plays and his ability to sustain drives is one of the best in the NFL. Detroit ranks 4th in the NFL as they are averaging nearly 30 points per game and they continue to be one of the more consistent offenses. We're backing the hotter team and for Baker Mayfield to regress a bit here. Some trends to note coming soon, Detroit are 13-2 ATS in their last 15 games, and they're 6-1 SU in their last 7 games, plus they're 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games against the Bucs. On the other side Tampa Bay are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 games at home. On Sunday I'm backing the Lions as they'll get it done vs. the Bucs in Week 6. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL ATS Play

Seahawks +3 The Seahawks are going to Ohio to play the Bengals in Week 6 this Sunday. The game is set for 1PM EDT, and it will be on CBS. The odds for the NFL match are Cincinnati -3 points on the spread, with an over/under of 44.5 points. Cincinnati is -148, while Seattle is +124. We're backing Seattle here, grabbing the points. Cincinnati has a lot of issues happening right now. Joe Burrow continues to play through a leg injury that is causing a lot of things to go wrong right now. While he has tried to step things up, this offense just isn't the same when he isn't at 100%. Seattle is going to cause a lot of issues here. They're going put together a lot of different blitz packages and try to put Burrow on edge here. This is the kind of game where they can force him into some tough situations and have him struggle early on. The Bengals win over the Cards isn't something to write home about in this spot. The Seahawks are looking healthy with the extra rest. Geno Smith is back and healthy, and Jamal Adams is returning. With the bye week, they've had extra time to prepare for Burrow and Chase. The Hawks' offense has scored 98 points in their last three games. The weather will play a role in this game, and the Seahawks have a better running game for a ground-and-pound matchup. (Walker III, and Charbonnet have looked great) Some trends to note, Seattle are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games, and they're 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games against AFC teams. Cincinnati are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 games. Back Seattle ATS on Sunday vs. the Bengals. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 9* NFL ATS Play

Texans +2 (I like +1.5 too, not as much) The Saints won big against the Patriots last week, 34-0, while the Texans lost a close one to the Falcons, 21-19. This week, it's the New Orleans Saints (3-2) vs. the Houston Texans (2-3) in NFL action for week 6. The game is set for Sunday, October 15th, 2023, at 1:00 PM (EST) at NRG Stadium in Houston, TX. You can catch it on FOX. The betting odds are: Point Spread - NO -2 / HOU +2, Moneyline - NO -125 / HOU +105, and Total - 42.5. Houston is the move here. The Texans come in 2-3, but this team has been better than this record indicates. The Saints are facing a tough schedule ahead. In Week 6, they have two consecutive road games, and if we backtrack a bit, they've had road games in four out of their last five outings. Additionally, they have some key players dealing with injuries as per the NFL injury report. One standout factor for me, aside from the Texans' running game, which I believe can find success today, is QB Stroud. This guy is a solid performer. He's currently in the Top 10 for passer rating, effectively connecting with his receiving options, and distributing the ball to his playmakers, including Dell, Woods, and Collins. What's even more impressive is his ability to protect the football, having thrown 7 TD's with ZERO INT's (He has 1461 yds passing too). Stroud is playing with a lot of confidence right now. I really like his ability to make the big play, he looks like a bonafide NFL starting QB, and that has been crucial here in 2023. Stroud and Niko Collins have been a solid connection and they should be able to find a lot of success come Sunday. The Saints defense has had a lot of issues at times and an early big play can change a lot here. Look for Houston to have their chances to steal this outright. Theyve scored 30+ points in their two wins thus far. New Orleans ranks near the bottom in a lot of offensive categories and they will struggle to put up points here. Some trends to note, New Orleans are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games. Houston are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games, and they're 6-3 ATS in their L9 Sunday games. Back Houston ATS on Sunday vs. Nawlins. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play

*10 TOP PLAY UW -3 In Seattle this week, there's a big showdown in college football. Undefeated #8 Oregon (5-0, 5-0 ATS) faces off against #7 Washington (5-0, 3-2 ATS) for the top spot in the Pac 12. It's the nation's top offense against the second-best – a real headline-maker. The game kicks off on Saturday, October 14th, at 12:30 PM PT, airing on ABC. The odds have Washington favored by 3 points with a total score prediction of 67.5. Washington is at -142 on the money line, while Oregon is at +130. We’re on Washington here, laying the number at home. This is going to be the kind of game that features a lot of fireworks. Both offenses are explosive and they love to work with pace. Washington is being a little undervalued here too. They rank first in the FBS in total offense at 569 yards and they can score in bunches. They also get a huge boost this week returning from injury. McMillan will be out wide for Penix, after missing 3 games with an undisclosed injury. He’s been practicing all week and makes such a difference in this receiving core. The Huskies have stepped up on defense at times, which included last week against Arizona. They have forced turnovers and been able to hold firm in the red zone. Look for them to put together a lot of different coverages and blitzes, doing whatever they can to confuse this Oregon offense. This Pac 12 showdown is a big deal, one of the most significant in years. What's even crazier is that next year, it becomes a BIG 10 game. Strange, right? Some trends to note, UW are 10-0 SU in their L10, 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games, and lastly they're 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home. Back the DAWGS on Saturday vs. the 1-state-over rival.

BYU +6 We've got a good game lined up with the BYU Cougars (4-1, 1-1) facing off against the TCU Horned Frogs (3-3, 1-2). Saturday at 3:30pm ET, Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, TX, and you can catch it on ESPN. Last week, BYU had a bye week, while TCU took a hit with a 27-14 loss to Iowa State. In the history books, TCU leads the series 6-5, and the last time they met in 2011, TCU came out on top with a 38-28 score. Now, for the betting scoop: BYU is the underdog by 6 points, and the total points for the game are set at 52.5. If you're looking at the moneyline, TCU is -223, and BYU is +182. BYU has the value with the points in this spot. The Cougars take on a TCU team that has not looked like the runners up from last season. They are 3-3 on the year and they have looked bad on the offensive side. They have scored a combined 35 points over the last two weeks and now they will be without their starting QB moving forward. Freshman Josh Hoover will make his first college start and takes on a defense that isn’t shy to put together blitz packages. BYU also comes in off a bye week which will be extremely beneficial. The bye week was used to help get this Cougars side healthy and will provide them with a huge spark. This is the kind of game they can frustrate the Horned Frogs. Given the struggles TCU has had and the situation they’re in QB wise, an early BYU lead can start to put some doubt into the Horned Frogs. They will have to be conservative with their play-calling as well, which should give BYU a nice edge. Look for BYU to control the clock and have this TCU team on their heels. Some trends to note, BYU are 8-1 in their L9 SU. Plus, they're 4-1 ATS in their L5 vs. TCU. TCU are 2-5 in their L7 ATS. We're on the Cougars on Saturday to keep things close against TCU.

Utah -10.5 The Cal Golden Bears (3-3, 2-4 ATS, 1-2 Pac12) aim for their second road victory of the season against the Utah Utes (4-1, 2-2-1 ATS, 1-1 Pac-12) this Saturday afternoon. The game kicks off at 3:00PM ET and airs on the Pac-12 Network. This showdown takes place in Salt Lake City, Utah, at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Now, let's check out the odds. The Utes are the favorites with a spread of -11.5 points, and their moneyline stands at -455. On the other side, the Golden Bears hold a moneyline of +350. The total points for this game are set at 45. Utah brings in an impressive home winning streak against unranked teams. That is one thing Utah has done so well in the recent years. They’ve beaten the teams they’re supposed to beat and they do it in style. They have won 26 straight here against unranked opponents and they are a few steps above this Cal side. Digging deeper into that stat, they are 15-0 since 2021 and 13 of those have been by double digits. Cal will look to establish a run game, but that won’t work against Utah. The Utes are one of the best in the conference at stopping the run, especially at home. They will stack the box on this Cal side, daring them to throw the ball. Look for Utah to dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, which should produce defensive turnovers and give them some short fields to work with. Cal simply does not have the firepower should they fall behind here. This is a nice spot to back Utah in a game they should handle comfortably. Cal won't be able to keep up, and I think they win by 14+. Some trends to note, CAL are 1-4 in their L5 SU, they're also 4-10 SU in their L14. On the other side, Utah are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games. They're also an insane 17-0 SU in their last 17 games at home, plus they're 15-3 SU in their last 18 games against an opponent in the Pac-12.

Now, let's talk odds. Colorado is favored by 11.5 points in the spread, and the over/under is set at 60 points. For those who prefer straight-up bets, the money line shows the Buffaloes at -466 and the Cardinal at +350. Colorado has the value here on Friday night. The Buffs come in after another win as they are proving to a lot of people that they aren’t messing around. Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes are gearing up to face the Stanford Cardinal in a Pac-12 matchup on Friday. Colorado has had a bit of a rollercoaster ride in the first half of the season. They're looking to maintain their momentum, and this game against the visiting Cardinal seems like the perfect opportunity. The Buffaloes are coming off a strong performance, scoring on 3 of their last 4 possessions against ASU last week. Their offense is on the right track, and despite facing a challenging schedule this year, they're determined to keep their bowl dreams alive. Shedeur Sanders has been a reliable quarterback with 16 TD's and only 2 INT's, showing good ball protection. He's starting to get the offense rolling, and that has to strike fear into the trees for this one. Colorado ticks a lot of the boxes against this edition of the Stanford team. Stanford is just 1-4 on the year and they’ve been throttled on a few instances in conference play. Also mix in a loss to Sacramento State and this team is abysmal so far. Colorado’s offense is rolling right now and they should be able to pick apart this Stanford side. Look for a lot quick plays and for them to open things up as the game goes on. Stanford has struggled with fast paced teams and this is one here they will have their hands full with. I think CU will prove to be too strong for the trees. This has all the makings of a 17+ point win. Some trends to note, Stanford are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games, and they're 1-9 SU in their last 10 games, plus they're 0-7 SU in their last 7 games against an opponent in the Pac-12. Back Colorado tonight at home at Folsom. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* CFB ATS Play

Memphis +5 Tulane Green Wave (4-1, 2-3 ATS) takes on Memphis Tigers (4-1, 1-4 ATS) this Friday at 7:00PM ET in Memphis at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium. You can catch it on ESPN. If you're into betting, the Green Wave are the favorites by 4.5 points, and the over/under is set at 54.5. If you're going for a straight-up bet, Tulane is at -196, while Memphis is at +164. In their previous games, the Green Wave won against the UAB Blazers with a score of 35-23, while Memphis secured a victory over Boise State, winning 35-32. We’re on Memphis here, grabbing the points at home. Memphis comes in as underdogs in a spot where they matchup well. The Tigers are 4-1 and they’ve done it with their offense coming up with some big time plays when they need it the most. They come in off an impressive 35-32 win over Boise State last time out as their balanced attack is tough to stop. They will wear teams down and we saw Ashton Jeanty rumbled for a pair of touchdowns in the win over the Broncos. Maddux Madsen has also came up with some plays as he’s stepped into the starter role. He has turned it over just 1 time while throwing for 5 touchdowns. This will be one of the best teams Tulane has seen thus far, which adds to the value for Memphis. With a big crowd expected, we’re playing the Tigers here to cover and potentially steal this one outright. Some trends to note, Tulane are 3-13 SU in their last 16 games against Memphis. On the other side, Memphis are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games plus they're 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home. Enjoy the evening, and only bet what you can afford! :) We're on the Tigers on Friday.

West Virginia -2.5 Week 7 of college football is here, and it's time for the Cougars (2-3, 2-3 ATS) to take on the Mountaineers (4-1, 4-1 ATS) in a Big 12 showdown. The game kicks off at 7 p.m. ET at TDECU Stadium. West Virginia is favored by 3 points, and the total points expected to be scored is 49.5. If you're into straight-up bets, West Virginia leads with odds of -148, while Houston stands at +124. The Cougars are 0-2 in the Big 12, are still chasing their first conference win after tough losses to TCU and Texas Tech. On the other side, the Mountaineers are riding high with only 1 blemish on their record overall and 2-0 in the Big 12. This is the first meeting between the two sides in their program histories, and we’re on the Mountaineers here, laying the points on the road. The Mountaineers come in with winners of 4 straight overall after dropping the opener to Penn State. They’ve rattled over wins over TCU, Texas Tech, Pitt, and Duquesne as they look to crack the Top 25 with a win here. They’ve done it with their defense. They’ve been able to force turnovers and they aren’t shy about bringing pressure. That should be the case here once again as Houston has been making mistakes offensively thus far into the season. West Virginia should be able to dictate a lot in this game, really frustrating the Coogs. An early lead will have them reeling, similar to what Texas Tech did to these Cougars last week. Keep an eye on Garrett Greene, the standout QB for West Virginia. He's been impressive with 550 passing yards, 4 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions, not to mention his rushing skills with 185 yards. (A dual thread if there ever was one). He already has two career 100-yard rush games. Greene is a born leader, and he's got the team following his lead, and facing a Cougars defense that's struggling, allowing an average of 30PPG. The Cougs won't be able to stop the rushing attack of WV in this one. Some trends to note, WV are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games, and 5-1 SU in their last 6 games. On the other side the Cougars are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games at home. Back the Mountain Men on Thursday night college football. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NCAA ATS Play

The Aggies are the favorites by 3.5 points, with the over/under set at 41.5 points. The money line shows the Aggies at -172 and the Bearkats at +143. We’re on New Mexico State in this Wednesday night spot. The Aggies take on a Bearkats team that is new to the FBS and it has not gone according to plan. They remain winless and this offense has looked bad for the most part. They haven’t scored over 16 points and in fact they've only scored 10 points combined through their first three games of the season. New Mexico State took down FAU last week by 17 and have momentum coming in here. This offense has shown some solid signs throughout their 3 wins and they have the capabilities of producing some big plays. We’re backing the more experienced team with a much better all-around team on both sides of the ball. In their previous games, Sam Houston suffered a 21-16 loss against Liberty, while New Mexico State secured a 34-17 victory over FIU. Some trends to note, Sam Houston State are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games, and are 0-5 SU in their last 5 games on the road. On the other side New Mexico State are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. and they're 9-4 SU in their last 13 games. We're backing the Aggies. Give the points on Wednesday night. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

This game is set to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET from Kidd Brewer Stadium in Boone. The Mountaineers are favored by 6.5 points, with a total points over/under set at 61. The money line shows Coastal Carolina Chanticleers at +198 and the Mountaineers at -245. We’re on App State here as weekday FUN Belt action gets underway. App State comes in 3-2 as this team has still looked impressive so far. They come in after a 41-40 win over UL Monroe on the road. They’ve given both Wyoming and North Carolina games to the wire on the road this year as well. At home, they’re 2-0 and looked good offensively crushing ECU and Gardner Webb. This team should overpower Coastal. They have the big play ability and can put together some good drives on opposing defenses. They’ll frustrate this Coastal side that simply doesn’t have enough firepower. This is the kind of game App State can get out early and keep their foot on the gas. Game time weather looks to be in the Mid 50's. (F) Some trends to note, CC are 3-6 ATS in their last 9 games, and 2-4 SU in their last 6 games against App St. App St. are 6-0 SU in their last 6 games at home. Notably, this marks the seventh meeting between these schools, with the Mountaineers holding a 4-2 series lead.

Packers +1.5 It's time for Monday Night Football betting. The Las Vegas Raiders (1-3) are playing against the Green Bay Packers (2-2) on Monday, October 9, 2023, at Allegiant Stadium. The game will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada. You can bet on the Las Vegas-Green Bay spread (Las Vegas -1) or the over/under (44.5 points). If you want to bet on the winner, the Packers have odds of -103, and the Raiders have odds of -115. We’re on the Packers here, on the road. Green Bay is at the benefit of having a few extra days off, which is going to prove to be pivotal here. The Packers come in 2-2 and Jordan Love has been the biggest key for them coming into play. He’s stepped up after taking the reigns and has shown he has the ability to lead this offense. Love has tossed for 8 touchdowns so far as he continues to put up some impressive numbers. This Raiders defense is a struggle and that should help the cause here moving forward on Monday. They’ve been really bad at times slowing down the pass, which has led them to a 1-3 start. Look for Love to pick apart this secondary and put together some solid plays. We should see plenty of open passing lanes for him, resulting in some big moves down field. The Raiders have not beaten Green Bay since 1987, with the Packers winning eight times in a row. The last game was in 2019, with the Packers winning 42-20 at Lambeau Field. Some trends to note, for starters Green Bay are 8-0 SU in their last 8 games against Las Vegas, and they're 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games. Las Vegas are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games at home, are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games, and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games. Grab the points. This is going to feel like a Green Bay home game, expect the majority of the stadium to be wearing Cheese Heads! Packers ATS! Good Luck, Razor Ray. MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL 9* NFL ATS Play

49ers -3.5 The Cowboys (3-1, 3-1 ATS) are playing against the 49ers (4-0, 3-1 ATS) at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, CA. The game starts at 8:20pm ET on NBC. And here are the betting odds for Week 5 in the NFL: Dallas is +3.5, and San Francisco is -3.5. You can also bet on the moneyline with Dallas at +150 and San Francisco at -186. The total is set at Over/Under 45. We’re playing San Fran on SNF. The 49ers are becoming quite the problem in the NFL. Sitting at a perfect 4-0, they come in after throttling another opponent last week as this time it was the Cardinals who were rocked. They have been able to do just about everything right so far. They’re getting long drives and coming up with timely plays, while the defense is forcing turnovers and producing key stops. This is a huge test for them but getting home field, under the lights will also be a huge help. San Fran has put up 65 points combined at home so far this year and they are picking apart defenses. Look for them to continue to do just that here, as the Cowboys will struggle to match the firepower. Some trends to note, the Cowboys are 1-4 in their L5 vs. NFC West teams. On the other side, the Niners are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games, are 16-1 SU in their last 17 games, and are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games at home. The hottest team in football? Sure, why not. The 49ers have won four games in a row. Make it five, and they cover the 3.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL 9* NFL ATS Play
10-08-23	Chiefs v. Vikings +3.5		27-20	Loss	-110	7 h 31 m	Show
Vikings +3.5 In this upcoming Sunday matchup at the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, MN, NFL gamblers get (3-1, 2-2 ATS) Chiefs facing off against the (1-3, 1-2-1 ATS) Vikings at 4:25 ET. The initial betting odds have Kansas City as the favorite with a -5.5 point spread, and the Week 5 NFL Moneyline Odds stand at Kansas City -238 and Minnesota +190. The Over/Under (O/U) for this game is set at 52 points. In terms of their history between these two, the Vikings and Chiefs have clashed on 13 occasions, including one postseason game. The Chiefs have dominated with 8 victories, while the Vikings have secured 5 wins, solidifying KC's series lead at 8-5. Minnesota got into the win column last week and now they look to grab a signature win here this week against the Chiefs. Minnesota established a good run game and controlled the clock for the first time all season. After starting 0-3, the Vikings ran for 123 yards and it opened up a lot of passing lanes for Cousins. That is the key for them here once again as running the ball and sustaining drives will allow them to keep this Chiefs offense off the field. This is the kind of game where they need to frustrate Kansas City. Mixing the play calling up on both sides of the ball and putting together some blitz packages will be the ultimate factor. Look for them to try and pressure Mahomes as they simply cannot give him time to just sit back. Some trends to note, KC are 2-4 SU in their L6 games when playing on the road against MIN. On the other side Minnesota are 7-1 SU in their last 8 games against an opponent in the AFC. The Vikes defense pitched a shutout in the second half last week, and they're going to have to take it to another level against Mahomes and Reid, I think with the home crowd behind them we can see them elevate their game 1 more notch. Expect pressure at the right time, and Minni could steal this one outright. Back the Vikings ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 6* NFL ATS Play
10-08-23	Eagles -3.5 v. Rams		23-14	Win	100	53 h 39 m	Show
Eagles -3.5 This weekend, in Week 5 NFL betting, we have the Eagles (4-0, 2-1-1 ATS) facing off against the Rams (2-2, 3-0-1 ATS). The game starts at 4:05 PM ET and will be on FOX. It will take place at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, CA. Now, let's talk about the betting odds. Philadelphia is favored by 4.5 points. The moneyline odds show Philadelphia at -213 and Los Angeles at +171. The total is set at O/U 50. Philadelphia is the move here. The Eagles are getting undervalued in this spot. Phili is a perfect 4-0 and not too many people are talking about them. They're putting together another solid offensive campaign as well. Coming into Sunday, the Eagles rank 5th in total offense. They're doing it with a balanced attack too, which is scary. They rank 2nd in the NFL in rush yards, while they're 5th overall in scoring. The Rams rank 15th in points against and their hands are going to be incredibly full come Sunday. Look for Phili to dictate the pace of play and really have the Rams on their heels from the start. Some trends to note, Philadelphia are 7-1 SU in their L8 games, 6-1 ATS in their L7 vs. the Rams, and are 9-1 SU in their L10 games on the road. For the Rams, trends point out they're 4-11 SU in their L15 games, and are 1-8 SU in their L9 games against NFC teams. The Eagles win this game. They are playing in a favorable environment for a 'road' game in the NFL. Philadelphia's running game will be strong with Swift toting the rock, and especially since the Rams defensive front 7 is not as strong as years past, even though they have Aaron Donald. My prediction is that the Eagles will win by 7-9 points. FLY EAGLES FLY! We're on the Eagles -3.5 on Sunday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NFL ATS Play

Steelers +4.5 Week 5 of NFL betting, the Ravens (3-1, 3-1 ATS) and the Steelers (2-2, 2-2 ATS) matchup on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1:00 ET, and televised on CBS. The game will be played at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, PA. When it comes to the betting odds, the Ravens are favored with -232, while the Steelers have +187 moneyline (straight up) odds. The point spread is Ravens -4.5. The total points expected in the game is 38.5. (O/U) We're backing the Steelers here as this AFC North matchup should prove to be a big one. Baltimore has a chance to send a message to the division, while the Steelers are showing they continue to find ways to win. Pittsburgh has dominated this head to head series coming into play. They've cashed in 5 of the last 6 against Baltimore and getting them here at home is a huge edge. The Steelers have proven they are such a tough team to beat at home in recent years. Pickett continues to improve as each game goes on and he has his chance here to step up in a big way. Some trends to note, Baltimore are 1-5 SU in their L6 games against the Steelers, plus they're 2-4 ATS in their L6 games against Pittsburgh. On the other side, surprisingly the Steelers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games, are 6-2 SU in their L8 games, and are 7-3 ATS in their L10 games vs. AFC North teams. I think the Steelers have a good chance in this matchup. AFC North games are often close, and even one mistake can change everything. Right now, Mike Tomlin has his team doing well protecting the ball. They've forced eight turnovers (which is fifth best in the NFL) and only committed five (13th best in the NFL). This puts the Steelers ninth in the NFL with a turnover margin of +3. Get our your Steelers towels for Sunday. We're backing Pittsburgh +4.5 vs. BAL. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NFL ATS Play
10-07-23	Arizona +21 v. USC		41-43	Win	100	21 h 13 m	Show
Arizona +21 In a classic Pac 12 matchup happening Saturday, we have the Wildcats with a record of 3-2 (4-1 ATS) facing off against USC, who are currently 5-0 (2-3 ATS). The game kicks off at 10:30 ET and will take place at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Betting spread odds shake down with USC at -21.5, and for Arizona, it's +924 on the Moneyline (ML), while USC is -2000 on the ML. The total points expected in the game are set at 72.5 (O/U). The Wildcats have a lot of value in this spot. We've seen that USC can score and strike very quickly. However, one thing that hasn't changed over the years for them as their defense continues to be one of the worst. Colorado absolutely torched them as they nearly blew a huge 2nd half lead. Now, Arizona comes in after giving Washington all they could handle as well. This is the kind of matchup where USC can even overlook them. With Notre Dame hanging in the balance, the Trojans are going to struggle with the Wildcats attack. Arizona has proven they aren't going to shy away from this USC side. They will air it out and take their chances when they see it. This is the kind of trap game where Arizona can keep things close. Expect the Trojans and Wildcats to exchange punches all night. Look for a high scoring affair where Arizona keeps it within the number. Some trends to note, Arizona are 4-1 ATS in their L5 games, and they're 4-2 SU in their L6 games. USC are 2-5 ATS in their L7. Back the Wildcats ATS on Saturday. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play

Notre Dame -6.5 In Week 6 of college football, we have the #10 Fighting Irish (5-1, 4-1-1 ATS) playing against the Cardinals (5-0, 2-2-1 ATS) this weekend. The game kicks off at 7:30 PM ET and will be held at L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky. You can watch it on ABC. Now, let's talk about the betting odds. Notre Dame is favored by 6.5 points, and the moneyline odds are Notre Dame -259 and Louisville +207. Fancy a straight up bet? The total is set at over/under 51.5. The Fighting Irish aren't done here in the Playoff talk. Not only are they building a solid resume, this is the kind of game where they can add to that. After coming from behind against Duke with a late score last week, they have all the confidence right now. This team could easily be undefeated, but even so, their schedule is favorable here after these next two games. Louisville had to grind their way to win over NC State and they aren't anything overwhelming. Notre Dame can really lean on Estimee and control the ground game. Sustaining drives and opening up passing lanes for Hartman will be the difference here. Look for the Fighting Irish to dictate the tempo and have Louisville off balanced all night. After the scare last week, look for Notre Dame to get out early and put their foot on the gas. This is the kind of game where they can bury the Cards and wear them out. Some trends to note, Notre Dame are 6-1 SU in their L7 games, and they're 5-1-1 ATS in their L7 games, they're also 8-1 ATS in their L9 games on the road. For the Cardinals, they're 6-14 SU in their L20 games when playing as the underdog. On Saturday, Louisville's QB Plummer will face Notre Dame for the third time in three seasons, playing for his third different team. He's had a tough time against Notre Dame in the past to say the least, and I'm not sure if Louisville has the right dogs for this fight with Notre Dame. Notre Dame has one of the top 5 offenses in the country, and their defense has performed well, especially against Duke. They seem set for another strong showing this week as all signs have them trending in the right direction towards being in the National Championship conversation at the end of the season. We're backing the IRISH on Saturday. "They're always after me lucky charms!" Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 6* CFB ATS Play

Colorado -3.5. In Week 6 of college football, the Buffaloes (3-2, 3-2 ATS) are facing the Sun Devils (1-4, 2-3 ATS). The game kicks off at 6:30 PM ET at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona, and you can watch it on the Pac-12 Network. When it comes to the betting odds, Colorado is favored by 4.5 points, with a moneyline of -203 for Colorado and +165 for Arizona State. The over/under (O/U) for the game is set at 59.5 points. Colorado has cooled off a bit, but they can. build off last week. The Buffs come in after racking up a high point total against a good USC team. They climbed all the way back, only to fall by a score in the end. This is the kind of game where they matchup very well with ASU. They have far more firepower and they are much more aggressive with their style. The Sun Devils have struggled on both sides of the ball at times and Colorado can expose that. Look for them to take their shots down field and play with tempo, putting ASU in an uncomfortable spot early on. Some trends to note, Colorado are 4-2 ATS in their L6 games against Arizona State. For ASU, they're 1-8 SU in their L9 games, 1-5 ATS in their L6 games at home, and finally they're 0-6 SU in their L6 games against an opponent in the Pac-12. Colorado recently played against USC and lost 48-41, while Arizona State is looking to bounce back from a 24-21 loss to Cal in this week's game. I still support Buffalo this year, even though they lost. They impressed me with their strong performance in the second half against USC. Deion Sanders believes his team can improve their offense even further, and his kid, Shedeur Sanders is doing a "decent job". The Buffs score an average of 34PPG and gain 440YPG. "Decent Stats...LOL". I'm on Coach Prime and the Buffs on Saturday. Lock in -3.5 if you can get it. (-4 is great too) Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 9* CFB ATS Play

OU +5.5 It's Red River Rivalry Saturday! In Week 6 college football gambling action we get the Texas Longhorns (5-0, 3-2 ATS) and the Oklahoma Sooners (5-0, 5-0 ATS). Two Top-15 teams means we should see some good football tomorrow. The game starts at 12:00 PM ET on ABC in Dallas, Texas, at the Cotton Bowl. This is the last time these two Top 15 clubs will meet in this game as members of the Big 12 as they're leaving for the SEC. As for the betting odds, Texas is favored by 6.5 points, with the Moneyline odds at Texas -237 and Oklahoma +189. The total score expected is 59.5. These games are always played close. Oklahoma and Texas renew their rivalry with College Gameday in attendance as this one should provide a lot of fireworks. We know one thing for sure, both teams get up for this game and aren't shy about what they're going to try to do. Oklahoma catches points here in a game where the underdog always has a chance to steal things outright. The Sooners are a perfect 5-0 themselves and flying a bit under the radar right now. They've been able to move the ball with ease against the opposition and we're getting nice value on them. QB Daniel Gabriel racked up 366 yards and 3 TDS last week as he is rolling right now. This is a pretty even matchup on both ends. Look for a lot of sparks and some quick strikes from the Sooners, in a game they can steal outright. Some trends to note, Oklahoma loves college football Saturday's, they're 6-1 in the L7 Saturday games! Plus, OU are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games, 5-0 SU in their last 5 games, and are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games against Texas. UT are 1-4 ATS in their L5 Saturday games at home. The main concern for the Sooners is their offense, not their defense, and we all know defense wins football games. Texas struggles to score touchdowns, especially in the red zone, which is a problem. Oklahoma is aware of this and will focus on their red zone defense to take advantage of Texas' offensive struggles. Field goals won't be enough for Texas in this game. We're on OU +5.5. They could even steal this one outright. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CFB ATS Play Free Side Bet: Small play on the UNDER.

Nebraska ATS Tonight at 8:00 ET in Memorial Stadium, Champaign, IL. It's a B10 matchup between the Nebraska Cornhuskers (2-3, 2-3 ATS) and Illinois Fighting Illini (2-3, 3-2 ATS) for Week 6 of college football. The odds favor the Illini -3.5, and the moneyline odds are Nebraska +134 and Illinois -167. The total betting O/U is 44.5. Backing the Huskers on Friday night in what should be a classic Big 10 showdown! It's guaranteed that when two ball control offenses lock horns the end result is a win-win for football fans! Both teams want to control TOP, both teams will try to establish the run, and both teams will want to win in the trenches. Illinois to my eye looks like they can't defend the run or the pass, so the advantage coming in is with Nebraska IMO. These two teams have been struggling heading into this matchup, no doubt, they’ve both been pretty similar in their styles, and if I'm being honest, both play a very ugly style it has to be said. The Cornhuskers were blitzed by Michigan last week, but prior to that, they came in with wins over Louisiana Tech and Northern Illinois. They’ve shown some signs of their offense moving the ball at times and they’re able to establish a downhill ground game. That will be the key in this one. If the Cornhuskers can control the ground and wear down Illinois, we’re going to see them open things up in the 2nd half. Gametime weather looks to be in the 50's. (Fall has arrived) We love Nebraska on the road tonight and we're grabbing the points as they've shown a little bit more fight of the two. Plus, they've proven they can stop the run, and they're a TOP 20 running offense in the Nation. Not only can they cover tonight, they could steal this one outright. Some trends to note, Illinois are 3-7 SU in their L10 games, 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games, and they're 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games at home. The Huskers will travel! Back them ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* CFB ATS Play
10-06-23	Kansas State v. Oklahoma State +11.5		21-29	Win	100	9 h 26 m	Show
Oklahoma State ATS On Friday night, there's a Big 12 football game happening between the (3-1, 3-1 ATS) Kansas State Wildcats vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys (2-2, 1-3 ATS). It's at 7:30 ET, and they'll be playing at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater, OK. Kansas State has a -11.5 point advantage. You can also bet on the moneyline, with Kansas State at -450 and Oklahoma State at +333. The total score for the game is predicted to be 54.5 points. Backing OKC on Friday night. Oklahoma State has value grabbing the points. The public is all over KState in this one, and we're pretty happy with this number. The Cowboys grab a big number at home here. They come in after faltering to the Cyclones by 7 on the road in a game where they had all the chances to win. Alan Bowman found the end zone twice and put up nearly 300 yards as he can at least carry that momentum into play here. The Wildcats have been vulnerable on the defensive side as well. We’ve seen teams rack up big plays and put together good drives that has led to them having their offense off the field. Oklahoma State can keep this close. Look for them to have their chances in the red zone and take shots down field. Some trends to note, if you like day of the week stats, Kansas State are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games played on a Friday. On the flip side Oklahoma State are 15-2 SU in their last 17 games at home, plus they're 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games played on a Friday. Lastly, evidence shows that Gundy's defense tightens up in Stillwater as 9 of OST's L10 games at home have gone UNDER. We love a barking home dog! Back OKC tonight and grab those points! Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* CFB ATS Play
10-05-23	Bears +6.5 v. Commanders		40-20	Win	100	11 h 4 m	Show
Bears +6.5 Tonight, it's Amazon Prime Thursday Night Football with the game set to kick off at 8:15 ET at FedEx Field. The matchup features the Bears, currently at 0-4, traveling to Landover to take on the Commanders, who sit at 2-2. The ATS odds favor Washington with a -6.5 point spread, while the Week 5 NFL Moneyline Odds show Chicago at +240 and Washington at -306. The NFL Betting Total is set at O/U 44.5 points. In Week 4 games, the Bears faced a tough loss, allowing Denver to stage a remarkable comeback, ending with a 31-28 defeat. Meanwhile, the Commanders had a closely contested game against their division rival Eagles, falling short with a final score of 34-31. We’re on the Bears here, grabbing the points. This number is too high even for this Chicago team. The Bears have been a mess this season, there is no hiding that. You would think hitting rock bottom was blowing a 21 point lead in the 2nd half last week against the Broncos. This is a redemption game as they’ll be in the national spotlight looking to grab their first win. Washington is in the midst of injuries themselves. They have some key pieces missing and come in 0-2 ATS at home. The Bears need to attack the Redskins defense thru the air. I expect a nice game from Moore tonight, he's a shifty WR who can go all over the field and cause headaches for opposing defenses. He's not an easy guy to gameplan against. The Skins Pass D is their weak link as they allow over 200 yards passing per game on average. Defensively, they have given up over 30 points in each of their last 3 games. This doesn’t bode well for a team laying points. Look for Chicago to come out with some aggression and fire here, as Fields can put this team on his back. Justin Fields needs to take his game up one more level and confidence should be high after that 335YDS & 4 TD's passing game. Some trends to note, Washington are 3-6 ATS in their last 9 games, and they're also 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games against an opponent in the NFC. I'm with the Bears ATS on TNF. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10-05-23	Western Kentucky -6 v. Louisiana Tech		35-28	Win	100	18 h 26 m	Show
Western Kentucky -6 On Thursday evening at 8PM ET, the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs with a 3-3 record will host the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers, who are 3-2, in a highly anticipated college football matchup. This game will take place at Joe Aillet Stadium in Ruston, Louisiana. You can catch the action on ESPNU. In terms of betting odds, Western Kentucky is favored by -5.5 points against the spread, while Louisiana Tech holds a +5.5 ATS. Additionally, the Week 6 CFB ML odds favor Western Kentucky at -234, with Louisiana Tech at +188. The College Football Betting Total stands at an over/under of 59.5 points. The Hilltoppers come in with momentum. They took down Middle Tennessee State last week in dominant fashion as this offense continues to put up some impressive numbers. They aren’t shy about what they want to do. They’re going to pass the ball and take plenty shots down field. That’s going to be the case here again, as Louisiana Tech has been a struggle at times defensively. The Bulldogs have been torched at times with the deep pass. They aren’t a team that is built to come back from behind either. They love to establish a run game and this is a game where they don’t match up well at all. Look for WKU to continue to be aggressive, as they’re going to come out firing the ball all over. An early LT hole will have them on their heels all night long. Some trends to note, Western Kentucky are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 games on the road, and they're 12-6 ATS in their last 18 games. Back the Hilltoppers on Thursday night. Louisiana Tech are 6-14 SU in their last 20 games. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* CFB ATS Play
10-02-23	Seahawks +1.5 v. Giants		24-3	Win	100	131 h 51 m	Show
Seahawks +1.5 In this week's NFL action, the Seattle Seahawks (2-1, 2-1 ATS) are set to clash with the New York Giants (1-2, 0-3 ATS) at MetLife Stadium on Monday night. The game kicks off at 8:15 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on ABC/ESPN. Let's dive into the betting odds for the Seahawks vs. Giants matchup: Moneyline (ML) has the Seahawks at +102 and the Giants at -120, while the Giants are favored by -1.5 points against the spread (ATS). The Over/Under (O/U) for the game is set at 46.5 points. The Seahawks come into this one off of two wins in a row. Last week a 37-27 win over Carolina. The Giants had that nice comeback 2 weeks ago vs. Arizona, but last week fell to the Niners 30-12, and didn't look good. Plus, last year the Giants lost by 14 to Seattle. Seattle is the move here on MNF. The Giants have started 1-2 and realistically they should be 0-3 had it not been for a frantic comeback against a bad Cardinals team. New York was throttled last week by the 49ers and will come in here with confidence lacking. Seattle meanwhile is 2-1 and they put up 37 last week on the Panthers. Smith threw for nearly 300 yards and Kenneth Walker racked up a couple TDS to help the cause. The Seahawks have looked like the much better team and they have the momentum side of things going for them right now. We’re playing the hotter side that has flourished on national tv games. Pete Carroll always tends to bring out the best for these types of situations. Some trends to note, Seattle are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games against NY Giants, plus they're 5-1 SU in their last 6 games against NY. On the other side the Giants are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games, are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 games when playing at home against Seattle, plus they have no MNF luck, 0-7 SU in their last 7 games played on a Monday. We're backing the Seahawks on Monday night with Jamal Adams making his 2023 return. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NFL ATS Play
