Michigan State at Ohio State 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions

by Eddie

Latest Odds : OSU-14.5 Total 55

Big Ten rivals will collide on Saturday afternoon, when the Michigan State Spartans invade the Horseshoe to battle the Ohio State Buckeyes. The 13th ranked Spartans won just three games last season, but are 5-1 in Big Ten Conference play and have seven wins overall. On Saturday, Michigan State waited out a three and a half hour weather delay to upset visiting Penn State by a 27-24 final score. Fred Davis caught 12 passes for 181 yards and a touchdown on the afternoon.

Through nine games, Michigan State ranks 63rd in total offense and scores 24.1 points on average. Ohio State is stout on defense, ranking 20th in yards allowed and giving up just 22.3 points per game.


The 11th ranked Ohio State Buckeyes are tied with the Spartans atop the Big Ten East Division standings and the winner of this matchup will essentially lock up a spot in the conference championship game. Last weekend, Ohio State’s national playoff chances took a huge hit during a 55-24 road loss at Iowa. J.T. Barrett threw four interceptions, including one that was returned for a score on the first play from scrimmage.

For the season, Ohio State ranks 4th in total offense and averages 43.8 points per contest. Michigan State features one of the top defenses in the country, ranking 12th in yards allowed and giving up 20.1 points on average.

Recent Betting Trends:
Michigan State is 4-2 ATS in its last 6 games.
Ohio State is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games at home.
Ohio State is 2-4 ATS in its last 6 games when playing Michigan State.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Michigan State's last 5 games on the road.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Ohio State's last 7 games at home.
Free Betting Pick: Michigan State Spartans +14.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Ohio State leads the all-time series with a 30-15-1 record, but the last six meetings have been decided by a total of 30 points. The winner of this game will likely earn a spot to the conference championship game, so I don’t expect a letdown from Ohio State. Look for the Buckeyes to win, but for the Spartans to cover. Final Score Prediction, Ohio State Buckeyes win but fall short ATS 28-20.

Oklahoma State at Iowa State 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions

by Jim

Latest Odds : OKST -6.5 Total 61

Following a loss to the Oklahoma Sooners, the #11 Oklahoma State Cowboys (7-2,4-2) travel to Ames to battle the #15 Iowa State Cyclones. The Cowboys defeated the Cyclones by a score of 38-31 last season and are hoping for a similar outcome this year.
Mason Rudolph quarterbacks the Cowboys and has been outstanding this season. Rudolph has thrown for 3314 yards, 27 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions on the season. Justice Hill is another in a long line of outstanding Cowboy running backs and has ran for 1064 yards and 9 touchdowns on 181 carries this season. James Washington is the leading receiver for Oklahoma State and has 52 receptions for 1133 yards and 9 touchdowns on the year.


With a 6-3 record, and a 4-2 mark in conference ply the Iowa State Cyclones are having their best season in years. The Cyclones play host to the Oklahoma State Cowboys. A win against the Cowboys would be huge for the Cyclones.

Kyle Kempf is the quarterback for the Cyclones and has been one of the most suprising players in the country this season. Kempf has thrown for 1108 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions on the season. David Montgomery has been solid at running back for Iowa State and has ran the ball 182 times for 831 yards and 8 touchdowns. Allen Lazard leads the Cyclones in receiving with 44 receptions for 526 yards and 6 touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Cowboys are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a ATS loss.
Cyclones are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 home games.
Over is 4-1 in Cowboys last 5 games after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game.
Under is 4-0 in Cyclones last 4 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: Oklahoma State Cowboys -6.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Cowboys offense can and will score in bunches and Oklahoma State has no hangover after losing to rival Sooners last week. Iowa State does not score easily and think getting down double digits early gets them out of game plan costing Cyclones. Final Score Prediction, Oklahoma State Cowboys win and cover ATS 38-27.

WVU at Kansas State 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions

by Jim

Latest Odds : KSU -1.5 Total 62.5

West Virginia, fresh off a strong 20-16 defeat of No. 15 Iowa State, remains alive to compete in the first ever Big 12 championship game. The Mountaineers are 4-2 in third place, one game behind Oklahoma and TCU, and head to Manhattan to face a Kansas State squad that has rebounded from three consecutive losses with back-to-back victories.

Will Grier threw two touchdown passes and Justin Crawford scampered for 102 yards in the win over Iowa State. Grier, a transfer from Florida, has fit in just fine in Morgantown, completing 65 percent for 3,068 yards with 30 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Crawford has 786 yards and seven rushing TDs on the season. The Mountaineers, who score 40.2 ppg with the nation's sixth-best passing attack, have a trio of receivers who can match any team in the nation. Gary Jennings has 69 receptions for 823 yards, David Sills V has 51 receptions for 793 yards and 16 TDs while Ka'Raun White has 739 yards and eight TDs.


The Widlcats defeated Texas Tech 42-35 in overtime last week behind the gutsy play of third-string QB Skylar Thompson, who replaced Alex Delton after he endured a helmet-to-helmet blow. KSU starter Jesse Ertz has missed the last three game with a knee injury yet still leads the Cats with 930 yards passing and seven TDs. Alex Barnes has 587 yards rushing and five TDs while Byron Pringle has 511 yards receiving and three TDs. KSU produces 33.0 ppg (33rd) and allows 24.8 ppg (52nd).

Recent Betting Trends:
Mountaineers are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games in November.
Wildcats are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games following a ATS win.
Under is 9-4 in Mountaineers last 13 games in November.
Over is 41-15 in Wildcats last 56 games in November.
Free Betting Pick: West Virginia Mountaineers +1.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Mountaineers team is clearly the better team and should be favored in this spot - but we will take the oddsmakers error as West Virginia continues solid season. Kansas State has not beat a quality team all season along and don't see that changing this week. Final Score Prediction, WVU Mountaineers win and cover ATS 36-27.

Florida at South Carolina 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : SCAR -7.5 Total 45.5

The South Carolina Gamecocks (6 - 3, 4 - 3 CONF) are hosting the visiting Florida Gators (3 - 5, 3 - 4 CONF) for a tough conference match up. South Carolina will be hosting this match up at the Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, SC. South Carolina has won three of their past four games while Florida has dropped four straight games. The South Carolina Gamecocks are going to be heavily favored in this match up despite coming off of a loss the #1 Georgia last week.

South Carolina is an interesting team because they can win in a low-scoring, bruising effort, or in a high scoring game. South Carolina is averaging 24 PPG on offense this year while giving up just 21 PPG to opposing squads. The Gamecocks like to move the ball through the air with QB Jake Bentley (1,986 yards, 14 TD, 6 INT). South Carolina's defense should be the biggest factor in this contest.


The Florida Gators have been just hard to watch over the past month of football. Florida's inconsistent play on offense behind QB Feleipe Franks (928 yards, 5 TD, 4 INT) has easily been the biggest problem for the Gators. Florida is averaging 21 PPG on offense this year while giving up 28 PPG to opposing squads this season. Florida can't risk coming out flat or else this could be a long game for Florida fans.

Recent Betting Trends:
Gators are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss.
Gamecocks are 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 conference games.
Under is 7-2 in Gators last 9 road games.
Under is 9-3 in Gamecocks last 12 games in November.
Free Betting Pick: South Carolina Gamecocks -7.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Hard to believe how far this Florida team has fallen - Gators have fired Coach McIlwayn and are going to miss bowl berth for first time in forever. South Carolina on the other side has been a nice surprise and Gamecocks improve to 7-3 with this easy win at home this week. Final Score Prediction, South Carolina Gamecocks win and cover ATS 26-17.

[bmd1803]

Notre Dame at Miami 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : ND -3.5 Total 57.5

Saturday's contest between No. 3 Notre Dame and No. 10 Miami will likely shut the door on one of the two teams' FBS Playoff hopes. Both have emerged as big brands with stronger teams than in recent seasons, and a win would continue the playoff dream for either program.

The Fighting Irish (8-1) lost by one point to now-No. 1 Georgia. That's the only blemish on their schedule. Since then, they've handed huge losses to Michigan State, USC and NC State, who are all ranked in the FBS Playoff Top 25. With the exception of its loss against the Bulldogs, Notre Dame hasn't allowed an opponent to finish within 10 points of victory.

Junior running back Josh Adams has amassed 1,191 rushing yards with nine touchdowns this season. He's rumbled for more than 100 yards six times this season and has two 200-yard games. Adams had 202 yards against the normally stingy NC State defense.


The Hurricanes (8-0, 6-0) passed their test against No. 13 Virginia Tech last week. It's possible that Miami could get exposed by the Fighting Irish. The Hurricanes don't have the resume of other top 10 teams and have squeaked by several opponents. On the other had, a win over Notre Dame would give Miami a huge jump in the polls.

Senior receiver Braxton Berrios has been the go-to guy in the red zone for the Hurricanes this season. He has seven receiving touchdowns and has found the end zone in back-to-back weeks.

Recent Betting Trends:
Fighting Irish are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
Hurricanes are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 vs. INDEP.
Over is 12-5 in Fighting Irish last 17 road games.
Under is 5-1 in Hurricanes last 6 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Miami Hurricanes +3.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Hurricanes team proved last week that this young Miami team has taken the next step and think Miami shows it for 2nd straight week. Miami also has felt slighted by not being ranked higher and think Canes take it out on Notre Dame. Final Score Prediction, Miami Hurricanes win and cover ATS 27-23.

[bmd1803]

Texas Tech at Baylor 11/11/17 - NCAAF Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : TT -7.5 Total 72


Baylor got its first win of the season last week, and they were the last Power 5 team to not have a win. The question is whether they can use that to give them some momentum against a struggling Texas Tech team that visits Waco on Saturday.

Baylor had four games decided by a touchdown or less, all losses. Texas Tech started out with three wins but has now lost four in a row, and three of those losses were by more than 10 points.

Texas Tech has one of the best passing offenses in the nation, averaging a fifth-best 354 yards per game through the air. The Red Raiders are averaging 152 yards rushing. Unfortunately, they have on of the worst defenses in the nation. The Red Raiders are averaging 38.2 points per game and giving up 34.1.


Nic Shimonek has passed for 3068 yards, 26 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Keke Coutee has 1026 yards receiving and nine touchdowns. Dylan Cantrell has 629 yards receiving.

Baylor has struggled in many areas. The Bears are averaging 20 yards passing, 27th nationally, and they are averaging 121 yards rushing. Baylor is averaging 25.9 points per game and giving up 36.1. Zach Smith has passed for 1458 yards, eight touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He did not play against Kansas with a sore shoulder and his status for this coming game is uncertain. Last week Charlie Brewer stepped in, was 23-19 passing for 315 yards and three touchdowns. Denzel Mims is the leading receiver, with 849 yards and seven scores. Baylor has just 10 rushing touchdowns all season.

Recent Betting Trends:
Red Raiders are 20-8-1 ATS in their last 29 games on fieldturf.
Bears are 2-8 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
Over is 4-0 in Red Raiders last 4 games in November.
Over is 7-1 in Bears last 8 neutral site games.
Free Betting Pick: Texas Tech Red Raiders -7.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
With only one win this year we are not excited to run to the betting window to bet the Baylor Bears. Texas Tech scores in bunches and Red Raiders keep it rolling against struggling Baylor. Also think the over is solid play as we see this going over 75. Final Score Prediction, Texas Tech Red Raiders win and cover ATS 45-34.

Georgia at Auburn 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : UGA -2.5 Total 47

Ranked #1 in the country the Georgia Bulldogs (9-0, 6-0) and Head Coach Kirby Smart have their sights set on a National Championship. The Bulldogs travel to Auburn to face a tough 14th ranked Tigers team. The Bulldogs defeated the Tigers by a score of 13-7 last season and are hoping for a similar outcome this year.

Jake Fromm quarterbacks the Bulldogs and has been solid this season. Fromm has thrown for 1459 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions. Nick Chubb leads the Bulldogs in rushing with 867 yards and 9 touchdowns on 140 carries. Sony Michel is an additional contributor out of the backfield for the Bulldogs and has ran for 710 yards and 9 touchdowns this season. Terry Goodwin is a big play threat and has 19 receptions for 422 yards and 5 touchdowns.


The Auburn Tigers (7-2, 5-1) are ranked 14th in the country and are still in contention for the SEC Western Division Title. The Tigers host the #1 ranked Georgia Bulldogs and would like nothing better than to spoil the Bulldogs national title aspirations.

Jarrett Stidham quarterbacks the Tigers and has thrown for 1996 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions on the season. Kerryon Johnson is the leading rusher for the Tigers and has 166 carries for 868 yards and 15 touchdowns. Ryan Davis is the leading receiver for the Tigers and has 48 receptions for 461 yards and 4 touchdowns in 2017.

Recent Betting Trends:
Bulldogs are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 road games.
Tigers are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Under is 16-6 in Bulldogs last 22 games following a straight up win.
Over is 6-0 in Tigers last 6 conference games.
Free Betting Pick: Georgia Bulldogs -2.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Georgia defense has proven to be the best in SEC and it's the key on the road Jordan-Hare where Auburn is very tough. Tigers have not been great when teams take away the run and think that is exactly what Georgia will do this week. Final Score Prediction, Georgia Bulldogs win and cover ATS 23-17.

NC State at Boston College 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : NCST -3 Total 52

After two straight weeks of top-10 opponents, the N.C. State Wolfpack may feel like it is getting a break as it heads to Boston to play Boston College. The Wolfpack played Clemson close Saturday but ended up falling short. N.C. State may be exhausted from the competition, or they may be energized, having proven they can compete at that level.

Boston College is not a pushover though. The Eagles got off to a slow start but have won three straight games and are 5-4 overall and 3-3 in the ACC. The Eagles have faced three ranked opponents and lost all those games, but the team has improved as the season has developed.


NC State averages 286 yards passing and 160 yards rushing. The Wolfpack is averaging 32.6 points and giving up 25.8. Ryan Finley has passed for 251 yards and 15 touchdowns. Nyheim Hines has run for 688 yards and six touchdowns. Kelvin Harmon ha 799 yards receiving and four touchdowns. Three more receivers have 450-plus yards and 10 touchdowns between them. NC State is averaging 4.4 yards per carry.

B-C is one of the few teams running more than it passes. The Eagles are averaging 199 yards rushing an 171 passing. Boston College is averaging 24.3 points and is giving up 24.8 per game.

Anthony Brown has passed for 1338 yards, 11 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He has also rushed for 182. AJ Dillon has rushed for 843 yards and seven touchdowns. John Hilliman has run for 432 yards and three touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Wolfpack are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 conference games.
Eagles are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Under is 5-1 in Wolfpack last 6 road games.
Under is 38-18-2 in Eagles last 58 conference games.
Free Betting Pick: Boston College Eagles +3 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Let down spot for NC State after the Wolfpack have lost last two weeks to highly ranked Clemson and Notre Dame. Now Wolfpack face much better than expected Boston College in Boston where they have been very good. Take the underdog with points but doubt we need it. Final Score Prediction, BC Eagles win outright as underdog 23-20.

[bmd1803]

Nebraska at Minnesota 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : MINN -2.5 Total 48

After falling to Northwestern by a score of 31-24, the Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-5, 3-3) are in desperate need of a win. The Cornhuskers head to Minnesota to battle the Golden Gophers in an important Big 10 Conference Game. The Cornhuskers defeated the Golden Gophers last season and are hoping for a similar outcome this year.

Tanner Lee quarterbacks the Cornhuskers and has thrown for 2365 yards, 17 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions on the year. Devine Ozigbo is the running back for the Cornhuskers and has ran for 431 yards and 1 touchdown on the year. Stanley Morgan Jr. is the leading receiver for the Cornhuskers and has 43 receptions for 690 yards and 7 touchdowns this season.


With a 4-5 record and 1-5 mark in conference play the Minnesota Golden Gophers play host to the Nebraska Cornhuskers in a Big 12 conference battle. In order to secure a coveted bowl birth the Golden Gophers must defeat the Cornhuskers.

Demry Croft quarterbacks the Golden Gophers and has thrown for 486 yards, 4 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions on the season. Rodney Smith leads the Golden Gophers in rushing and has ran for 665 yards and 3 touchdowns on the season. Tyler Johnson is the sole Golden Gopher with more than 13 receptions and leads the Golden Gophers in receiving with 32 catches for 620 yards and 7 touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Cornhuskers are 14-6-2 ATS in their last 22 games following a ATS loss.
Golden Gophers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games.
Under is 5-0 in Cornhuskers last 5 vs. a team with a losing record.
Over is 12-5 in Golden Gophers last 17 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game.
Free Betting Pick: Nebraska Cornhuskers +2.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Minnesota team has been terrible since Big Ten play started and can't see laying any points with this Gophers team. Nebraska hasn't been a ton better but most of Cornhuskers losses have been to top of the Big Ten and still have been relatively close. Final Score Prediction, Nebraska Cornhuskers win and cover ATS 26-20.

[bmd1803]

Iowa at Wisconsin 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : WISC -13 Total 46

Iowa unleashed one of the most surprising and impressive performances of the season on Saturday, walloping Ohio State 55-24 to eliminate the Buckeyes from the national championship race. The Hawkeyes have won three of four to climb to third in the Big Ten West division standings. The Wisconsin Badgers are unbeaten and other than a slight scare a month ago vs. Northwestern have looked dominant in each game, including a 45-17 thrashing of Indiana last time out.

The Iowa defense intercepted Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett four times in the victory on Saturday and has been strong all season, holding opponents to 18.1 points per game (16th in nation). On offense, quarterback Nathan Stanley drives the bus efficiently. He's completed 58 percent for 1,929 yards with 22 touchdowns and four interceptions. Akrum Wadley has rushed for 761 yards with five touchdowns while Nick Easley has 402 yards receiving and four TDs. Iowa averages 28.3 points per game (61st).


Yet again, Wisconsin has a powerful running game driven by a next level rusher. Jonathan Taylor averages 7.2 yards per carry has 1,368 yards and 12 touchdowns to pace a Badgers attack that's scored 38 offensive touchdowns and produces 36.1 points per game. Alex Hornibrook is a capable passer with 1,728 yards, 15 TDs and nine interceptions. His favorite target is Quintez Cephus with 501 yards receiving and six touchdowns. The Badgers defense has stifled opponents on the ground and through the air, allowing only 13.1 ppg (4th in nation).

Recent Betting Trends:
Hawkeyes are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games in November.
Badgers are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 games in November.
Under is 6-0 in Hawkeyes last 6 games after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game.
Over is 10-4 in Badgers last 14 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: Iowa Hawkeyes +13 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Hawkeyes are coming off best win in last few seasons and that confidence makes them dangerous as underdogs again this week. Iowa's QB Nathan Stanley had game of his career last week and similar outing keeps this very close this week. Final Score Prediction, Wisconsin Badgers win but fall short ATS 27-23.

[bmd1803]

UL Lafayette at Ole Miss 11/11/17 - NCAAF Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : MISS -19.5 Total 65.5

The Ragin' Cajuns from Louisiana-Lafayette evened their overall record and improved to 3-2 in the Sun Belt with a 19-14 win at South Alabama last week. They'll find the sledding a tad tougher this week as they head to Oxford to face an Ole Miss Rebels outfit which appeared left for dead earlier this season but has fought its way into position to claim a winning record and bowl eligibility. Defense is optional in this one.

ULL scores 28.6 ppg (67th in the nation) and turned to third-team freshman quarterback Levi Lewis last week for the first time this season. Lewis responded by passing for two touchdowns, 110 yards and no interceptions in an 8-for-15 outing. He also rushed for 129 yards on 18 attempts. Trey Ragas is the Cajuns leading rusher with 626 yards and seven TDs while Keenan Barnes has 34 catches for 485 yards and seven TDs. The ULL defense has been weak, allowing 37.4 ppg (118th in nation).


Through two games the Ole Miss offense hasn't missed a step under Jordan Ta'amu, who has completed 72 percent for 828 yards with four TDs and one interception since replacing the injured Shea Patterson. He also ran for 76 yards and two touchdowns in a one-point loss to Arkansas. Jordan Wilkins has 630 yards rushing and five TDs. A.J. Brown has 830 yards receiving and seven TDs to lead the Rebels wideouts. D.K. Metcalf and DaMarkus Lodge have six receiving TDs as well. Ole Miss allows 37.1 ppg (117th).

Recent Betting Trends:
Ragin' Cajuns are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games in November.
Rebels are 9-21 ATS in their last 30 games in November.
Over is 6-1 in Ragin' Cajuns last 7 non-conference games.
Over is 4-1 in Rebels last 5 non-conference games.
Free Betting Pick: UL Lafayette Ragin Cajuns +19.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The bad season for Ole Miss might take a week off from losing this week but still not sure the Rebels can cover this huge spread. Lafayette isn't as good as last few years but think Ragin Cajuns do just enough to get ATS cover. Final Score Prediction, Ole Miss Rebels win but fall short ATS 36-23.

[bmd1803]

UCONN at UCF 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : UCF -37 Total 63

There will be two outstanding quarterbacks on display in this American Athletic Conference battle. The UConn Huskies can also find solace in the start of college basketball season on Friday night. But first their fans have to endure a couple more football contests and hope this one goes better than Saturday's 37-20 loss to South Florida. UCF remained unbeaten with a tough 31-24 defeat of SMU.

Bryant Shirreffs is a strong signal caller, throwing for 2,287 yards and 14 TDs to lead the way for UConn. He's completed 66 percent and been picked only five times but has spent too much time on his backside (27 sacks). Kevin Mensah rushed for 369 yards and three touchdowns so far while Hergy Mayala has five TDs and 503 yards receiving. The Huskies score 24.9 ppg (91st in the nation) and allow 38.3 ppg (123rd).


UCF quarterback McKenzie Milton should be on the short list of Heisman Trophy contenders. All he's doing after all is guiding the nation's most prolific offense (47.1 points per game). He's completed a staggering 70 percent for 2,409 yards with 20 touchdowns and five interceptions. He's also rushed for three scores and posted three games of 88 yards rushing or better. Adrian Killins Jr. leads the ground game with seven touchdowns and 575 yards. Tre'Quan Smith has caught 33 passes for 641 yards and nine touchdowns. The UCF defense is no slouch either. The Golden Knights allow 20.8 ppg, which slots them 28th in the nation.

Recent Betting Trends:
Under is 6-1 in Huskies last 7 games in November.
Under is 11-5 in Knights last 16 games overall.
Huskies are 7-20-1 ATS in their last 28 games following a straight up loss.
Knights are 6-0 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
Free Betting Pick: UCF Knights -37 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Against the best teams this year UCONN has seen little to no success - we don't expect those trends to continues as Huskies lose in ugly blowout. Huskies just don't have the speed to stand toe to toe with UCF. Final Score Prediction, Central Florida Knights win big and easily cover ATS 51-10.

Purdue at Northwestern 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : NW -6 Total 47

After defeating Illinois, the Purdue Boilermakers (4-5, 2-4) battle another opponent from the land of Lincoln as they travel to Evanston to battle Northwestern. The Boilermakers lost to the Wildcats by a score of 45-17 last season and are hoping for a better outcome this year.

Elijah Sindlear is the man behind center for the Boilermakers and has thrown for 939 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions this season. D.J. Knox is the leading rusher for the Boilermakers and has ran the ball 64 times for 387 yards and 1 touchdown. Jackson Anthrop is the leading receiver for the Boilermakers and has 35 receptions for 345 yards and 5 touchdowns on the year.


With a 6-3 record, and 4-2 mark in conference play the Northwestern Wildcats are having an outstanding season. After defeating the Nebraska Cornhuskers the Wildcats turn their attention to another conference opponent as they play host to Purdue.

Clayton Thorson is the quarterback for the Wildcats and has thrown for 2287 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions this season. Justin Jackson is a workhorse at running back for the Wildcats and has carried the ball 181 times for 798 yards and 8 touchdowns. Bennett Skowronek is the leading receiver for the Wildcats and has 32 receptions for 427 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2017. Macan Wilson is an additional player to watch and has 27 receptions for 387 yards and 1 touchdown this year.

Recent Betting Trends:

Over is 3-1-1 in Wildcats last 5 games following a straight up win.
Free Betting Pick: Northwestern Wildcats -6 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Northwestern team is one of the hottest teams in Big Ten Conference and think that continues this week. Purdue started year looking like Boilermakers were going to make a push for Bowl berth this year but three losses in last 4 weeks now makes it look unlikely. Final Score Prediction, Northwestern Wildcats win and cover ATS 29-20.

USC at Colorado 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : USC -13.5 Total 60.5

The #17 USC Trojans (8 - 2, 6 - 1 CONF) are on the road this weekend to take on the home town Colorado Buffaloes (5 - 5, 2 - 5 CONF). Colorado will be hosting this game at Folsom Field in Boulder, CO. The Buffaloes are coming off of a two score loss to Arizona State while USC just knocked down $22 Arizona in order to win their second straight game. USC will be favored in this match up.

The USC Trojans are taking the field with one of the more exciting and dualistic offenses in the NCAA. USC is able to throw and run the ball with relatively ease thanks to great playcalling. QB Sam Darnold (2,859 yards, 22 TD, 11 INT) has been leading the offense but he has gotten plenty of help from running back, Ronald Jones II (1,082 yards, 13 TDs). USC is scoring 35 PPG while holding opponents to 27 PPG on defense.


Colorado is similar to USC in that they need to rack up big points in order to win games. Colorado is scoring 28 PPG on offense this year while giving up 27 PPG to opposing teams. Colorado will need to lean on the running game behind Phillip Lindsay (1,334 yards, 12 TDs). Colorado is a run-first team that could end up getting blown out if they don't get their ground game rolling early and often.

Recent Betting Trends:
Trojans are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games in November.
Buffaloes are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games on grass.
Over is 4-0 in Trojans last 4 games overall.
Over is 4-1 in Buffaloes last 5 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: USC Trojans -13.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Back to back big blowout wins by USC is proof that Trojans are back on track. Facing a Colorado team that just doesn't score easily is big problem for the struggling home Buffaloes. Trojans QB Sam Darnold might not be a Heisman winner that everyone had hoped this year but he puts third straight impressive outing together. Final Score Prediction, USC Trojans win and cover ATS 39-23.

TCU at Oklahoma 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : OKL -7.5 Total 61.5

The matchup between No. 8 TCU and No. 5 Oklahoma has huge FBS Playoff implications, and it could be a sneak peek at the Big 12 Championship Game, which will take place in a month in Dallas. Both teams have lost just once in conference play.

The Horned Frogs (8-1, 5-1) have a bad taste in their mouth after a loss against Iowa State a couple weeks ago. However, TCU was strong against Texas in a 24-7 win last week. The Horned Frog defense had vanished over the last couple of years, but it's back this season. Gary Patterson's team surrenders just 13.9 points per game (sixth in FBS).

It's been boom-or-bust for senior quarterback Kenny Hill this season. He has two games with four touchdown passes and one with five. However, those three games account for 13 of his 15 touchdown strikes this season. He has yet to log multiple touchdown passes against a quality opponent this season.


Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) has passed a couple of massive tests this season with wins over No. 2 Ohio State and No. 11 Oklahoma State. The Sooners outscored the Cowboys 62-52 last week, in what will be one of the most remembered games of the season. Oklahoma has struggled on defense this season, but may just have the offensive firepower to get in to the FBS Playoff.

Senior quarterback Baker Mayfield may be the front runner for the Heisman Trophy this season. He has thrown for multiple touchdowns in every game this season and has a touchdown-to-interception ratio of 28-to-5.

Recent Betting Trends:
Horned Frogs are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Sooners are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up win.
Under is 8-2 in Horned Frogs last 10 road games.
Over is 5-2 in Sooners last 7 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: Oklahoma Sooners -7 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
After Sooners huge offensive outburst last week we expect this line to go up so make sure you jump on board early this week. Add in that Oklahoma's star QB Baker Mayfield is not the front runner in the Heisman and think this game is going to be platform to push Sooners forward again this week. Final Score Prediction, Oklahoma Sooners win and cover ATS 43-30.

Duke at Army 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : DUKE -3 Total 47.5

Duke (4-5, 1-5) won its first four games of the season and has subsequently fallen in five straight. The Blue Devils still could become bowl eligible, with plausible wins against Army, Georgia Tech and Wake Forest still on the schedule.

After falling to No. 13 Virginia Tech two weeks ago, Duke had a bye week last week. It came at a good time for a team that could get nothing going on offense against the Hokies. The Blue Devils totaled just 183 yards of total offense, with a 4-of-15 conversion rate on third-down attempts.

Duke actually ranks 32nd in the nation by allowing just 20.6 points per game. However, the Blue Devils score just 24.3 points per game, which comes in at 98th in the FBS. Sophomore quarterback Daniel Jones has just eight touchdown passes on the season, with seven interceptions. Four of his eight touchdowns came in the first two weeks of the season.


Army (7-2) will go to a bowl game this season and has a shot at logging one of the best seasons in program history. The Black Knights have won five games in a row and shut out Air Force on the road last week. They play stout defense, with just 18.9 points allowed per game (20th in FBS).

Senior quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw has rushed for 1,132 yards and eight touchdowns on the season. He had a field day against the Falcons, with 265 rushing yards on 23 attempts and a touchdown.

Recent Betting Trends:
Blue Devils are 12-0 ATS in their last 12 games on fieldturf.
Black Knights are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games in November.
Under is 5-2 in Blue Devils last 7 games after accumulating less than 275 total yards in their previous game.
Over is 4-1 in Black Knights last 5 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Army Black Knights +3 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Army team has just found ways to win this year - Black Knights are 7-2 straight up and ATS including 5-0 at home. More of the same this week as Duke defense just gets worn down late in this game. Final Score Prediction, Army Black Knights win outright as underdog 28-24.

Indiana at Illinois 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : IND -9 Total 49

Indiana and Illinois meet as the cellar dwellers of their respective divisions in the Big Ten Conference. The Hoosiers are winless in the East, while the Fighting Illini are looking for their first victory in the West.

After four straight losses, Indiana (3-6, 0-6) is looking to turn a competitive game into a win. The Hoosiers have been within eight points of their opponent in three of the four losses. Last week, however, they were blasted by No. 9 Wisconsin. The Badgers outgained them 407 to 266 yards and won 45-17.

Junior receiver Simmie Cobbs Jr. has been one of the most explosive targets in the conference. On the season, he has 662 receiving yards and six touchdowns. Two weeks ago, Cobbs caught 10 passes for 138 yards against Maryland and found the end zone twice. He had season highs of 11 receptions and 149 yards in Indiana's opener against Ohio State.


Illinois (2-7, 0-6) has lost seven straight to get to its current record. The Fighiting Illini are a mess on offense, with just 16.4 points per game (127th in FBS). Only one of the seven losses for Illinois has been within a touchdown.

Sophomore quarterback Jeff George Jr. has thrown for five touchdowns and eight interceptions since earning the starting spot for the Fighting Illini. The last two weeks, he's completed less than half of his passes. However, there have been some encouraging signs with George for the future. A few weeks ago, he completed 18 of 23 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown against Minnesota, with no interceptions.

Recent Betting Trends:
Hoosiers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a double-digit loss at home.
Fighting Illini are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 home games.
Under is 5-1 in Hoosiers last 6 road games.
Under is 5-1 in Fighting Illini last 6 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Indiana Hoosiers -9 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Hoosiers team must win out to call this season a successful one - as Indiana needs to follow up last years Bowl berth with one this season. Indiana take big step forward this week as Hoosiers take out recent frustrations out on young Illinois team. Final Score Prediction, Indiana Hoosiers win and cover ATS 34-20.

[bmd1803]

Arkansas at LSU 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : LSU -18 Total 55

The Arkansas Razorbacks (4 - 5, 1 - 4 CONF) draw a rough road game against the home town #19 LSU Tigers (6 - 3, 3 - 2 CONF). LSU will be looking to improve on their early season record with a winnable game against Arkansas. LSU will be hosting this game at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, LA. Arkansas has won two straight games while LU is looking to bounce back from a loss against #2 Alabama.

The Arkansas Razorbacks are the underdog in this game despite their high octane offense. Arkansas is scoring 30 PPG on offense this season behind intelligent playcalling. Arkansas is racking up almost 390 yards per game on offense while splitting their playcalling evenly between both running and passing. Arkansas unfortunately doesn't have a superstar at QB and thus would prefer to keep this game slower in pace to try and limit LSU.


The LSU Tigers are a better defensive team than Arkansas as they are just giving up 20 PPG to opposing teams. LSU will follow QB Danny Etling (1,589 yards, 9 TD, 2 INT) in this game. Etling just needs to limit his turnovers and allow LSU's competent offensive playcalling to control this game. Also watch out for running back Derrius Guice (782 yards, 6 TDs). LSU is averaging 400 yards of total offense this season and we expect those numbers to be improved against Arkansas.

Recent Betting Trends:
Razorbacks are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 games after accumulating more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game.
Tigers are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS win.
Over is 6-1 in Razorbacks last 7 games overall.
Under is 8-3-2 in Tigers last 13 home games.
Free Betting Pick: LSU Tigers -18 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The LSU Tigers should come out and defeat Arkansas with relative ease in this game as the terrible season for Razorbacks continues. Arkansas has been death for bettors, Razorbacks are just 2-6 ATS including almost losing to Coastal Carolina last week. Final Score Prediction, LSU Tigers win and cover ATS 37-17.

Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech 11/11/17 - NCAAF Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : VT -3 Total 50.5

Virginia Tech is 7-2 and out of the ACC coastal race, but they are ranked 13th and expecting a nice bowl trip. They play at Georgia Tech this weekend, a team that is 4-4 but has shown itself to be dangerous.

Both of Virginia Tech's losses were to top-10 teams, and they were not exactly blown out in either one. Georgia Tech has lost three of its last four games, but two of those were to Miami and Clemson, and they lost to Miami by just one point. Georgia Tech has lost fourth-quarter leads three times this year.

Virginia Tech thrives on defense, fourth in the nation in holding opponents to 13.3 points per game. The Hokies are averaging 32.6 points per game. Virginia Tech averages 258 yards passing and 171 yards rushing. Josh Jackson has passed for 2229 yards, 17 touchdowns, and six interceptions. Cam Phillips is his favorite target, with 793 yards and six touchdowns. Jackson has also run for 205 yards. Travon McMillan leads the team in rushing with 4-5 yards.


Georgia Tech is third in the nation in rushing yardage, at 331.9 yards per game. The Yellow Jackets are nearly at the bottom in passing, averaging 83 yards per game. Georgia Tech is scoring 31.8 points per game and giving up 23.6. Taquon Marshall is the starting quarterback and the leading rusher. He has passed for 667 yards, six touchdowns, and two interceptions, and that is over eight games. He has rushed for 870 yards and 14 touchdowns. KirVonte Benson has rushed for 844 yards and six touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Hokies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss.
Yellow Jackets are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games on grass.
Under is 4-1 in Hokies last 5 games on grass.
Over is 5-2 in Yellow Jackets last 7 games following a straight up loss.
Free Betting Pick: Virginia Tech Hokies -3 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Georgia Tech won last year, and for the past four years, the visiting team has won head to head. Hokies showed how good this defense is with great showing against undefeated Miami Hurricanes - another strong outing is the key again this week. Final Score Prediction, Virginia Tech Hokies win and cover ATS 27-20.

Alabama at Mississippi State 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : ALA -14 Total 50.5

No. 2 Alabama (9-0, 6-0) doesn't have the type of wins the FBS Playoff committee is looking for this season, but committee members would be hard-pressed to pick any other team in the nation over the Crimson Tide. NIck Saban's team has been dominant this season. Alabama averages 40.9 points per game (eighth in FBS) while allowing just 9.8 points per game (first in FBS).

Last week against No. 19 LSU, Alabama looked as vulnerable as it has all year. The Crimson Tide surrendered 306 yards compared to its 299 yards. They also didn't score more than once in a single quarter. Despite those struggles, they still came out with a 24-10 win.

Sophomore quarterback Jalen Hurts hasn't been the flashiest quarterback in the country, but he's managed the Alabama offense well, and has a 10-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio to show for it. He had a passing and rushing touchdown against the Tigers.


No. 16 Mississippi State (7-2, 3-2) has won four straight since losing to Georgia and Auburn in back-to-back weeks. The Bulldogs were down 20-13 against UMass at halftime last week but rallied to win 34-23. Junior quarterback Nick Fitzgerald had a poor passing game, with two interceptions and no touchdowns. However, he did rush for 135 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Fitzgerald has 801 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns this season. He's run for multiple touchdowns in five games this season and has been kept out of the end zone just twice.

Recent Betting Trends:
Crimson Tide are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games.
Bulldogs are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games.
Over is 4-1 in Crimson Tide last 5 games following a ATS loss.
Under is 4-1 in Bulldogs last 5 vs. a team with a winning record.
Free Betting Pick: Alabama Crimson Tide -14 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The most dominant team in College Football has been this Crimson Tide team and don't see that slowing down against up an down Bulldogs. Mississippi State won't be able to move the ball as the great Bama defense wins this one nearly by themselves. Final Score Prediction, Alabama Crimson Tide win and cover ATS 31-10.

[bmd1803]

Arkansas State at South Alabama 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : ARST -11.5 Total 50.5

Arkansas State (5-2, 4-0) has won four games in a row and is the last unbeaten team left in the Sun Belt Conference. All four league wins for the Red Wolves have come by at least 16 points.

Last week, Arkansas State came from behind and scored 30 second-half points in a 37-21 win over New Mexico State. The Red Wolves held the Aggies to just three conversions on 17 third-down attempts en route to the win. Arkansas State got 297 passing yards and four touchdown passes from junior quarterback Justice Hansen.

Hansen has thrown for multiple touchdowns in each game he's played in this season and has 25 touchdown passes on the season.

The Red Wolves rank 12th in the nation in passing yards per game (323.2) and ninth in points per game (40.4).


South Alabama (3-6, 2-3) got off to a 2-1 start in the Sun Belt but lost consecutive games to Georgia State and Louisiana over the last couple weeks to fall to a losing record. The Jaguars couldn't overcome a 19-7 halftime deficit to the Ragin' Cajuns last week and eventually fell 19-14. South Alabama outplayed Louisiana in some regards, but threw two interceptions compared to the Ragin' Cajuns' zero turnovers.

Junior receiver Jamarius Way caught five passes for 110 yards last week. That was his second-consecutive week of at least 100 yards after not having any up to that point. Way has 584 receiving yards and three touchdowns on the year.

Recent Betting Trends:
Red Wolves are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after accumulating more than 280 yards passing in their previous game.
Jaguars are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 home games.
Under is 7-2 in Red Wolves last 9 road games.
Under is 4-1 in Jaguars last 5 conference games.
Free Betting Pick: South Alabama Jaguars +11.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Arkansas State is clearly the deserving favorite but winning by more than double digits on road is always tough in Sunbelt play. South Alabama keeps this just close enough to cash for us bettors. Final Score Prediction, Arkansas State Red Wolves win but fall short ATS 30-22.

[bmd1803]

Wyoming at Air Force 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : AFA -3 Total 50.5

The Wyoming Cowboys (6 - 3, 4 - 1 CONF) are on the road to take on the home town Air Force Falcons (4 - 5, 3 - 2 CONF). Air Force will be hosting this game at Falcon Stadium in USAF Academy, CO. Air Force was just shut out in a loss to Army last week while Wyoming has scored wins in four of their past five games.

Wyoming will be taking the field with a team that has been doing massive damage defensively to opposing teams. Wyoming is holding opposing teams to just 19 points on defense this year while completely limiting opposing passers. Wyoming is scoring 24 PPG on offense and though they lack big play makers, Wyoming should still be able to do some damage against Air Fore's leaky defense. Wyoming doesn't have much of a running game so expect the Cowboys to be airing the ball out all day.


The Air Force Falcons are a high scoring team in comparison to Wyoming and that'll have to be the difference here. Air Force is a run-first, grinding focused team that likes to punish opposing defenses. QB Arion Worthman (925 passing yards, 793 rushing yards, 22 TDs) will be the key player to watch in this game. Worthman's Air Force squad is averaging 34 PPG on offense but we don't expect them to hit that mark in this game.

Recent Betting Trends:
Cowboys are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS win.
Falcons are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 conference games.
Over is 5-1 in Cowboys last 6 games in November.
Over is 13-5 in Falcons last 18 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: Wyoming Cowboys +3 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Wyoming teams continues to be way under-rated but Cowboys don't mind as they win outright as underdog for 2nd straight week. This Cowboys team has edge on both sides of the ball and will win another closer game against a struggling Air Force team. Final Score Prediction, Wyoming Cowboys win and cover ATS 23-21.

Oregon State at Arizona 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : ARIZ -23 Total 70.5

No 22 Arizona played USC and fell short a week after upsetting Washington State. The Wildcats are 6-3 and host a struggling Oregon State team this week. It may seem like a breather for Arizona who has faced top 20 teams in the last two weeks. Oregon is 1-8 and winless in the PAC 12, but two of the last three games have been decided by three or fewer points.

Arizona has a rarity in quarterback Khalil Tate, who has more yards rushing than passing. He has a chance to break the season quarterback rushing record at his current pace. He set a single-game rushing mark this year with 327 yards. Tate has 1087 yards rushing with nine touchdowns and he has an 11.2 yards per carry average. He has also passed for 930 yards with eight touchdowns and five interceptions. He has played only five games this season.


Arizona is fourth in the nation in rushing at 327 yards per game, and 180 passing. Arizona is fourth in the nation in scoring, averaging 43.9 points per game, but they are giving up an average of 32.3.

Nothing has done well for Oregon State this year. The Beavers are within 10 spots of the bottom of the nation in scoring at 20.7 points per game, and on defense, giving up 39.8.

Darrell Garretson has started the last five games and has passed for 875 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. Ryan Nall has rushed for 632 yards.

Recent Betting Trends:
Beavers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss.
Wildcats are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up loss.
Over is 4-1 in Beavers last 5 road games.
Over is 5-2 in Wildcats last 7 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Oregon State Beavers +23 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Last week we saw how bad this Arizona defense can be and just can't see laying three plus Touchdowns with the struggling Wildcats defense. Oregon State has no chance at winning outright but covering will not be a problem. Final Score Prediction, Arizona Wildcats win but fall short ATS 43-24.

Tennessee at Missouri 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : MIZZ -11 Total 61.5

A banged up Tennessee team with a coach on the hot seat travels to Missouri this weekend. Tennessee ended a four-game losing streak with a win over Southern Miss. At one point in the streak, Tennessee went 13 quarters without getting an offensive touchdown. The offensive woes continued as Jarret Guarantano was injured and freshman Will McBride was pressed into service. McBride completed one of eight passes for 13 yards, but carried the ball well at times and ran the offense. Tennessee is 4-5 and winless in the SEC.

Missouri had its losing streak, five games, earlier in the season. Since then the Tigers have won three straight and have scored 45 or more in each win. Missouri has one SEC win, which was a blowout of Florida last week. Missouri is 4-5 overall.

Tennessee averages 168 yards passing and 130 yards rushing. It is likely Guarantano will start this game, but McBride may see some action. As a team, Tennessee has 7 touchdown passes and seven interceptions. Tennessee is averaging 23.4 points per game and giving up 25.2. John Kelly leads the running game with 694 yards.


Missouri is averaging 314 yards passing and 169 rushing. The Tigers are averaging 36.6 points and giving up 33.6 per game. Drew Lock has passed for 2795 yards, 31 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. Three receivers have more than 560 yards each. Ish Witter has rushed for 504 yards, and Damarea Crocket has run for 481.

Recent Betting Trends:
Volunteers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.
Tigers are 5-0 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
Over is 4-1 in Volunteers last 5 road games.
Over is 4-1 in Tigers last 5 games after accumulating more than 450 total yards in their previous game.
Free Betting Pick: Missouri Tigers -11 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Missouri leads the all-time series 3-2. Tennessee won at Missouri last year, but the Volunteers have not won a road game this year. High flying offense of Missouri is just too much for a Vols team that can't score more than 25 points. Final Score Prediction, Missouri Tigers win and cover ATS 38-23.

Michigan at Maryland 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : MICH -15.5 Total 46.5

The season has been disappointing for Jim Harbaugh's Michigan Wolverines (7-2, 4-2), who dropped out of the top 25 after being dismantled by No. 2 Penn State a couple weeks ago. Michigan, barring a miracle, will miss out on the Big Ten Championship Game and the FBS Playoff once again, despite having sky-high hopes.

Michigan has notched back-to-back easy wins against Rutgers and Minnesota. The Wolverines are gearing for their final games against No. 9 Wisconsin and No. 6 Ohio State. Despite already having a pair of losses, they could still make huge statements in those games.

The passing game has been virtually non-existent for Michigan, but as a team, the Wolverines have rushed for 1,918 yards with an average of 5.0 yards per carry. Junior running back Karan Higdon has 804 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns. In the last four weeks, he's gone for more than 150 rushing yards three times.


Maryland (4-5, 2-4) is looking for two wins in its last three games to become bowl eligible. The season started with the Terrapins beating No. 23 Texas and putting 51 points on the board. Since, they've lost five games and have proven to feature one of the softest defenses in the nation (36.3 points allowed per game).

Junior receiver D.J. Moore has been great this season, with 59 receptions for 820 yards and eight touchdowns. Moore has tallied at least 75 receiving yards in seven games this season. He lit up Northwestern for 210 yards and two touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Wolverines are 19-8-1 ATS in their last 28 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game.
Terrapins are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games after allowing more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game.
Under is 4-1-1 in Wolverines last 6 games following a ATS win.
Over is 6-1 in Terrapins last 7 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
Free Betting Pick: Maryland Terrapins +15.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The injury to top 3 QB's for Maryland has made the Terps season very uneven and just can't see many more wins for Maryland. Lucky for us bettors that Maryland won't need to win to cash this underdog ticket. Michigan wins again this week but it's much closer than this large spread suggests. Final Score Prediction, Michigan Wolverines win but fall short ATS 26-17.

Wake Forest at Syracuse 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : SYR -2 Total 61

As expected, Wake Forest (5-4, 2-3) hasn't had as easy a time in conference play as it did before hand. The Demon Deacons were 4-0 before four losses in five games. The last two week have been encouraging, however, as Wake Forest beat Louisville and fell in a barn-burner last week against No. 3 Notre Dame.

The Demon Deacons are just one win away from bowl eligibility. They'll have to get their clinching win against either Syracuse, NC State or Duke over the final stretch of the season.

Junior running back Matt Colburn ran for 120 yards on 20 carries against the Fighting Irish and found the end zone. That came a week after he went for 134 yards against the Cardinals. On the season, Colburn is up to 437 rushing yards and three touchdowns. He'll continue to get the ball more for the rest of the season and is a bright spot as the Demon Deacons look toward 2018.


Syracuse (4-5, 2-3) got a lot of attention after wins against Pittsburgh and No. 2 Clemson. The Orange followed up those two victories by losing against No. 8 Miami and Florida State. Syracuse came up just three points short against the Seminoles last week. On the game, the Orange had 120 more yards than their opponent.

Senior receiver Steve Ishmael had 12 catches for 143 yards and a touchdown last week. Ishmael has gone for more than 100 yards in six games this season. He has 986 yards and five touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Demon Deacons are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games on fieldturf.
Orange are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss.
Under is 5-2 in Demon Deacons last 7 road games.
Under is 11-1 in Orange last 12 games following a straight up loss.
Free Betting Pick: Wake Forest Demon Deacons +2 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Think the wrong team is favored here as Wake Forest is just the better team. Demon Deacons defense is the big key and think it travels well on the road. Syracuse hasn't won since the upset over Clemson as Orange aren't going to sneak up on anybody. Final Score Prediction, Wake Forest Demon Deacons win and cover ATS 25-23.

New Mexico at Texas A&M 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : TAM -18.5 Total 52

Let's just say these two fan bases aren't thrilled at the moment. New Mexico sputtered on offense again and fell to Utah State 24-10 on Saturday for their fourth consecutive loss. Texas A&M lost to an SEC West division rival at home for the seventh consecutive time, losing to Auburn 42-24 in a game that exposed the Aggies' weakness at quarterback.

The New Mexico Lobos have committed 11 turnovers in the last two games, which makes it difficult to score points - 23.4 ppg (107th in nation). The Lobos have tried three different quarterbacks this season and each has fared poorly. Lamar Jordan has completed 51 percent for 578 yards with three TDs and four interceptions, though he rushed for 85 yards against USU. Freshman Tevaka Tuioti mustered 54 yards on 15 attempts vs. USU. Tyrone Owens leads the Lobos' top-20 rushing game with 521 yards and three TDs. Jay Griffin IV has three receiving TDs and 268 yards.


Nick Starkel will be the quarterback du jour vs. New Mexico, according to Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin. The redshirt freshman has completed 50 percent for 379 yards with three TDs and one interception this season. Trayveon Williams has 572 yards and five touchdowns on the ground this season while Keith Ford has added 413 yards and nine TDs. Christian Kirk has caught 42 balls for 455 yards and five TDs to lead the receiving corps. Texas A&M averages 29.6 ppg (57th) and allows 29.0 ppg (83rd).

Recent Betting Trends:
Lobos are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game.
Aggies are 5-12-1 ATS in their last 18 games overall.
Under is 5-1 in Lobos last 6 games on grass.
Under is 7-3 in Aggies last 10 games in November.
Free Betting Pick: Texas A&M Aggies -18.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
For third straight season the second half struggles have hit Texas A&M but lucky the Aggies are out of the SEC this week. Aggies take out the frustrations and Texas A&M ends losing streak with easy home win. Final Score Prediction, Texas A&M Aggies win and cover ATS 43-20.

Southern Miss at Rice 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : USM -10.5 Total 48.5

Southern Miss looked game against gimpy Tennessee on Saturday before falling 24-10 and looks forward to returning to Conference USA where the Golden Eagles remain in contention for the West Division title, trailing North Texas by one game in the loss column. The Rice Owls are anxious for the offseason once again. The Owls have lost seven straight, being embarrassed most recently 52-21 by UAB, which didn't even have a football team at this time last year.

Southern Miss splits the quarterbacking load between Keon Howard and Kwadra Griggs. Howard has completed 57 percent for 1,199 yards with eight touchdowns and five interceptions. Griggs has completed 53 percent for 1,071 yards with eight TDs and two interceptions. Ito Smith is a strong runner - 5.3 yards per carry, 868 yards and seven TDs. Korey Robertson leads the receivers with 51 receptions for 702 yards and seven TDs. Southern Miss scores 25.4 ppg (89th in nation) and allows 21.6 ppg (36th).


Rice is good at neither offense (14 ppg - 128th) nor defense (36.9 ppg - 116th). The Owls have run a collection of quarterbacks onto the field this season and each has suffered the same miserable results. Jackson Tyner has completed 47 percent for 598 yards with two TDs and five INTs. Combined the Rice passers have six TDs and 14 interceptions. Austin Walter is the leading rusher with 286 yards and two of Rice's 11 rushing TDs. Aaron Cephus has 500 yards receiving and five TDs.

Recent Betting Trends:
Golden Eagles are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after allowing less than 100 yards rushing in their previous game.
Owls are 4-10-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
Under is 4-0 in Golden Eagles last 4 vs. a team with a losing record.
Over is 6-2 in Owls last 8 vs. a team with a winning record.
Free Betting Pick: Southern Miss Eagles -10.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Eagles team is heads and shoulders better than Rice and don't see this being close after half time. Southern Miss dominates with 30 plus outburst on offense and give Rice no chance. Rice is just 2-6 ATS and don't see that trend ending here. Final Score Prediction, Southern Miss Golden Eagles win and cover ATS 33-17.

Virginia at Louisville 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : LOU -10.5 Total 64.5

The Virginia Cavaliers (6 - 3, 3 - 2 CONF) are on the road to play the home town Louisville Cardinals (5 - 4, 2 - 4 CONF). Louisville will be hosting this game at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium in Louisville, KY. Virginia is coming off of a high scoring win against Georgia Tech while Louisville was just dispatched by Wake Forest. Louisville will need to harness their home crowd in order to do some damage and grab a win here.

Louisville will be taking the field with a team that has long been doing serious damage with the ball. Louisville is scoring 37 PPG on offense this year while putting together a red-hot 550 yards of total offense per outing. Louisville's Lamar Jackson (2,808 yards, 18 TD, INT) has been excellent in and out of the pocket this year and we like him to do some more damage against UVA.


The University of Virginia has been winning games this year thanks to their focused approach on offense. QB Kurt Benkert (2,278 yards, 20 TD, 6 INT) has been excellent this season and his ability to spread the ball around has been downright impressive. Virginia is averaging 26 PPG on offense this season while giving up 25 PPG to opposing squads. The Virginia Cavaliers have lost two of their past three games and will be considered underdogs in this match up.

Recent Betting Trends:
Cavaliers are 4-0 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
Cardinals are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
Over is 5-1 in Cavaliers last 6 games on fieldturf.
Over is 4-1 in Cardinals last 5 games on fieldturf.
Free Betting Pick: Louisville Cardinals -10.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Louisville team has just not been good this year but Virginia has also been up and down as well. At home we have Louisville just out scoring the struggling offense of Virginia. Last two games Virginia defense has also struggled - don't see that changing against talented Louisville offense. Final Score Prediction, Louisville Cardinals win and cover ATS 39-20.

Florida State at Clemson 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : CLEM -16 Total 46.5

Following a 27-24 victory over Syracuse, the Florida State Seminoles (3-5, 3-4) travel to Death Valley to battle the #4 ranked Clemson Tigers. The Seminoles lost to the Tigers by a score of 37-34 last season and are hoping for a better outcome this time around.

James Blackmon is the quarterback for the Seminoles and has thrown for 1285 yards, 8 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions this season. Cam Akers leads the Seminoles and has ran for 695 yards and 3 touchdowns on the season. Nyqwarr Murray (28 receptions, 437 yards, 2 touchdowns) and Auden Tate (26 receptions,, 386 receptions, 5 touchdowns) are the top receiving options for the Seminoles.


With an 8-1 record including a 6-1 mark in conference play, the #4 Clemson Tigers are still in the national championship picture. The Seminoles battle long time rival Florida State in a game that is a must win to mantain their National Championship hopes.

Kelly Bryant has replaced the departed Deshaun Watson at quarterback for the Tigers and has thrown for 1773 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions. Bryant is also the leading rusher for the Tigers and has ran for 548 yards and 9 touchdowns this year. Deon Cain is the leading receiver for the Tigers and has 37 receptions for 440 yards and 4 touchdowns on the season. Travis Etienne is an additional player to watch for the Tigers and has 7 rushing touchdowns this season.

Under is 4-1 in Seminoles last 5 games after allowing more than 280 yards passing in their previous game.
Under is 5-1 in Tigers last 6 conference games.
Free Betting Pick: Florida State Seminoles +16 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Has been forever since FSU has been this large of an underdog and just can't see the talent and pride of the Seminoles allowing a loss more than 2 TD's. Clearly the more experienced team is Clemson but Tigers offense has not been explosive and think this is low scoring closer than expected game. Final Score Prediction, Clemson Tigers win but fall short ATS 27-17.

Boise State at Colorado State 11/11/17 - NCAAF Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : BSU -5.5 Total 56.5

The Boise State Broncos (7 - 2, 5 - 0 CONF) are on the road for a tough match up against the home town Colorado State Rams (6 - 4, 4 - 2 CONF). Colorado State will be hosting this game at CSU Stadium in Fort Collins, CO. Colorado State was just narrowly beaten by Wyoming last week while Boise State just pulled down their fifth straight win in the past five outings.

The Colorado State Rams have had some impressive work going on under center behind QB Nick Stevens (2,865 yards, 22 TD, 9 INT). Stevens has been able to push the ball downfield while minimizing turnovers. Colorado State is scoring 31 PPG on offense this year while racking up 483 total yards per game this season. CSU is a high scoring squad that is as good offensively as they are the opposite on defense. We expect an ugly, high scoring game.


Boise State comes into this game scoring 31 PPG while giving up just 20 PPG to opposing teams. Boise State is a pass-first team that can also move the ball on the ground in a pinch. QB Brett Rypien (1,360 yards, 7 TD, 3 INT) is the starter here and Rypien will be asked to do more than just manage the game in this contest. Boise State needs to be able to go score for score with CSU.

Recent Betting Trends:
Broncos are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall.
Rams are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss.
Over is 9-3 in Broncos last 12 games in November.
Over is 5-2 in Rams last 7 games following a straight up loss.
Free Betting Pick: Colorado State Rams +5.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Looks like really close Mountain West Conference game as the top teams fight right to the finish in this one. Grab the home underdog Rams as this screams a field goal win one way or other. Boise defense has the edge here and it's key in late win. Final Score Prediction, Boise State Broncos win but fall short ATS 26-23.

Tulane at East Carolina 11/11/17 - NCAA Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : TULN -5 Total 64

The Tulane Green Wave (3 - 6, 1 - 4 CONF) take to the road for a match up with East Carolina (2 - 7, 1 - 4 CONF). East Carolina will be hosting this match up at the Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium in Greenville, NC. Tulane comes into this match up heavily favored despite being the road team. ECU is coming off of a bad loss to Houston while Tulane was narrowly edged out by Cincinnati, thus losing their fourth straight game.

Tulane will be taking the field with hefty expectations on their shoulder for a win against the lowly East Carolina Pirates. This season we have seen Tulane play relatively one-directional on offense, leaning heavily on the run game instead of the arm of QB Jonathan Banks (1,122 yards, 9 TD, 2 INT). Tulane is scoring 27 PPG on offense this season while doing almost all of their damage on the ground. We want to highlight running back Dontrell Hilliard (808 yards, 9 TD).


East Carolina comes onto the field with one of the worst defenses in all of the NCAA. ECU is giving up 47 PPG to opposing teams this season while completely shutting down on both levels. East Carolina is giving up 325 passing yards and 240 rushing yards per game. East Carolina's offense has been excellent at throwing the ball at times but they need to get stops against Tulane to find a win.

Recent Betting Trends:
Green Wave are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss.
Pirates are 6-21 ATS in their last 27 games overall.
Over is 8-1 in Green Wave last 9 vs. a team with a losing record.
Over is 6-2 in Pirates last 8 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: East Carolina Pirates +5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This East Carolina team has had season to forget but think Pirates have real shot at winning outright as home underdogs this week. Tulane has not been much better including losing at home to bad Cincinnati team. Final Score Prediction, East Carolina Pirates win and cover ATS 26-24.

Western Kentucky at Marshall 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : MRSH -13 Total 48

The Marshall Thundering Herd (6 - 3, 3 - 2 CONF) are heading home to host the visiting Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (5 - 4, 3 - 2 CONF). Marshall will be the overwhelming favorite in this game as Marshall will have the loud home crowd within Joan C Edwards Stadium on their side. Western Kentucky has dropped two straight games and WKU is struggling to find any identity with their team.

Western Kentucky has dropped back to back games while struggling to make stops on defense. Western Kentucky is averaging 26 PPG on offense this season while surrendering 24 PPG on defense to opposing teams. WKU is a pass-first team that doesn't have the ability to make any moves on the ground. Western Kentucky is led by QB Mike White (2,652 yards, 14 TD, 6 INT) and his connection with wide out Lucky Jackson. Western Kentucky is going to have to throw in order to win this game.


The Marshall Thundering Herd will be taking control early on in this game, if all things go to plan. Marshall is averaging 28 PPG on offense this season while giving up just 19 PPG to opposing teams. Marshall has been excellent at making important plays in tight spots. Marshall's QB Chase Litton (2,166 yards, 18 TD, 9 INT). Marshall is able to attack opposing teams both in the air and on the ground. We like Marshall to come out and make a few scoring drives, early.

Recent Betting Trends:
Hilltoppers are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games in November.
Hilltoppers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 conference games.
Thundering Herd are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games on fieldturf.
Under is 4-1 in Thundering Herd last 5 games in November.
Free Betting Pick: Marshall Thundering Herd -13 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The past decade Western Kentucky has been such a good team but this year the Hilltoppers have just struggled. Look for another loss for WKU as much stronger Marshall just dominates at home. Thundering Herd have also been money for bettors 7-2 ATS and more of the same in this one. Final Score Prediction, Marshall Thundering Herd win and cover ATS 30-13.

Washington State at Utah 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : WSU -1 Total 52

The #25 Washington State Cougars (8 - 2, 5 - 2 CONF) are on the road for what should be a tough match up against the home town Utah Utes (5 - 4, 2 - 4 CONF). Utah will be hosting this game at the Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, UT. Washington State comes into this game aa week removed from a nail biting victory over #21 Stanford. Utah is coming off of a blowout win over UCLA.

Washington State is hitting the field with a team that knows how to get things done on both sides of the ball. Washington State is racking up a rock solid 33 PPG on offense while surrendering 23 PPG to opposing squads. The Washington State Cougars are led by the impressive play of QB Luke Falk (2,913 yards, 26 TD, 8 INT). Falk has been as good as anyone at pushing the ball down the field and that'll come in handy here.


The Utah Utes are built in similar fashion to Washington State, just not nearly as good. Utah is averaging 29 PPG on offense this season while compiling 416 yards per game. Utah is way more effective when they push the ball on the ground behind big Zack Moss (748 yards, 5 TD). Utah will try to slow and control this contest by running the ball a lot and that'll be key to their success.

Recent Betting Trends:
Cougars are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after accumulating less than 100 yards rushing in their previous game.
Utes are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game.
Under is 4-1 in Cougars last 5 games following a ATS win.
Under is 6-1 in Utes last 7 games following a ATS win.
Free Betting Pick: Utah Utes +1 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Would expect a veteran Washington State team to be better on the road than what Cougars have been. WSU has gone just 1-2 straight up and ATS on the road. Utah on the other side have been nearly unbeatable at home, Utes have been 3-2 straight up at home and 3-1-1 ATS. Trends continue this week, Final Score Prediction, Utah Utes win and cover ATS 23-21.

Arizona State at UCLA 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : UCLA -1 Total 66

UCLA started the year in good shape, but injuries, especially at quarterback have sent the season into a tailspin. The Bruins are 4-5, and their quarterback situation is very uncertain as they host Arizona State, 5-4, this weekend.

UCLA's Josh Rosen had passed for 2700 yards and 20 touchdowns before being injured two weeks ago. He did not play last week and is questionable for this game. His replacement, Devon Modster, played relatively well, throwing for 185 yards, but he now has a thumb injury and may not play. UCLA has three other quarterbacks on the roster who have thrown five passes between them this year.

UCLA has relied heavily on the passing game. Leading rusher Bolu Oloranfunmi has 405 yards.

UCLA has struggled greatly on defense all year, averaging giving up 38.8 points per game. The Bruins had been averaging 34 points per game and were 10th nationally in passing at 327 yards per game.


Arizona State has beaten then No. 5 Washington, and Oregon, another ranked team this year. The Sun Devils rebounded well after having lost to USC the previous week. Arizona State has had a lot of close games this year, and they are averaging 29.8 on offense and giving up 30.8 per game. Arizona State is averaging 261 yards passing and 150 rushing.

For Arizona State Manny Wilkins has passed for 2298 yards, 11 touchdowns, and three interceptions. Demario Richard has rushed for 568 yards and Kalen Ballage has run for 421. N'Keal Harry has 794 yards receiving.

Recent Betting Trends:
Sun Devils are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Bruins are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
Over is 11-5 in Sun Devils last 16 games following a ATS win.
Over is 7-2 in Bruins last 9 games overall.
Free Betting Pick: Arizona State Sun Devils +1 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
The hot seat continues to head up for UCLA as Coach Jim Mora will most likely be fired unless Bruins turn around struggling season. The Sun Devils haven't been a ton better but at least the ASU defense has been much better than UCLA. Final Score Prediction, Arizona State Sun Devils win and cover ATS 34-26.

Kansas at Texas 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : TEX -33 Total 55

Texas lost to its fourth ranked opponent last week and can get bowl eligible by winning at least two of its last three games. That starts when they host lowly Kansas this weekend.

Texas has had four games decided by six points or less, and they were very close to beating both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State over the last few weeks. Texas is 4-5 overall and 3-3 in the Big 12.

Kansas has just one win this year and that was in the season opener. The Jayhawks had only two wins last year, but one of those was against Texas in Lawrence.


Texas is averaging 275 yards passing and 137 rushing. The Longhorns are scoring 27.9 points per game and giving up 21.3. Shane Beuchele has started the last two games for Texas. He has passed for 1067 yards, five touchdowns, and three interceptions. Sam Ehlinger has passed for 1419 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions. Chris Warren leads the team with 313 yards rushing. Ehlinger has 265.

Kansas averages 239 yards passing and 114 yards rushing. The Jayhawks are scoring 25.6 points per game. The team has one of the worst defenses in the nation though, giving up 42.4 points per game, and that is 128th out of 130 teams in Division I.

Carter Stanley has passed for 717 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions as he has subbed for starter Peyton Bender. Bender played sparingly last week and has thrown for 1437 yards, eight touchdowns, and nine interceptions. The Jayhawks are averaging 3.5 yards rushing.

Recent Betting Trends:
Jayhawks are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games on fieldturf.
Longhorns are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss.
Under is 4-0 in Jayhawks last 4 conference games.
Under is 38-17 in Longhorns last 55 conference games.
Free Betting Pick: Texas Longhorns -33 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Early in the year it looked like Kansas might be improving as a program but since then it has been shown that Jayhawks are once again worst team in BIG 12. Texas is just too big and fast on both offense and defense to allow Kansas to even keep it close. Final Score Prediction, Texas Longhorns win and cover ATS 47-13.

UAB at UTSA 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : UTSA -7 Total 51

UAB has been playing decent on the season and has only managed to drop 3 games on the year. However, the Blazers are going to have some strong competition in this game as they are facing against the UTSA Roadrunners who have been playing decent compared to the rest of the teams in the conference.

The Blazers have seen some good offensive production from A.J. Erdley who has thrown for 1692 yards and 12 scores. However, the rushing attack has been led by Spencer Brown who has managed to carry the ball 180 times for 1049 yards and 10 scores.


The Roadrunners have been playing decent on the season as of late. However, what is amazing is the fact the Roadrunners have been able to pick up quite a few wins against teams that have been playing stronger than them on the season so far.

The Roadrunners have been led by Dalton Sturm who has thrown the ball for 1668 yards and 14 touchdowns on the season. Jalen Rhodes has carried the ball 110 times for 572 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Old Dominion at FIU 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : FIU -9.5 Total 48

Old Dominion picked up the third win on the season, but it was a struggle and even against a team as weak as the Charlotte 49ers, it was only by a couple of field goals the Monarchs were able to pick up the win, the first in conference play for the Monarchs. So this could give the team some momentum, but the chance of actually winning a lot is slim.

These is very true when the quarterback, Steven Williams, has only managed to throw the ball for 1017 yards and 4 touchdowns on the season so far.


FIU is a team that has been picking up quite a bit of good notes on the season so far and this can easily help with the recruiting issue that a lot of schools have when they are smaller. The Golden Panthers are a team that would like to be able to pick up even more wins in the games, but that could prove to be difficult for them, except in this game.

Alex McGough is the player who has led the Golden Panthers on the season. McGough has been able to throw for a total of 1728 yards and 9 touchdowns on the year so far.

Recent Betting Trends:
Monarchs are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 games in November.
Golden Panthers are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS win.
Over is 6-0 in Monarchs last 6 games after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game.
Over is 9-2 in Golden Panthers last 11 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.
Free Betting Pick: FIU Golden Panthers -9.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
This Golden Panthers team is one of the most improved team in College Football and FIU keeps it going with another easy win this week. FIU wins with dominating defensive performance against struggling ODU team. Final Score Prediction, Florida International Panthers win and cover ATS 30-16.

UTEP at North Texas 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : UNT -23.5 Total 56.5

UTEP has been playing some horrible football on the season and it all boils down to the fact that neither side of the ball has been on the good side. However, the Miners are going to play some good games if you are the opponent and this will make it quite a bit easier for the opponent to pick up the wins.

The Miners on the season are only scoring at a clip of 12.9 points a game on the season so far. However, the Miners defense is giving up a total of 36.2 points a game.


The Mean Green have been playing some great football on the year so far on the season. The Mean Green have been able to pick up quite a few wins and that is going to make it quite a bit easier for the Mean Green to be one of those teams that is very impressive on the season so far.

The Mean Green are scoring a total of 35.9 points a game. The defense for the Mean Green is giving up 36.2 points a game on the year so far.

Recent Betting Trends:
Miners are 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 games in November.
Mean Green are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games in November.

Just a mismatch anyway you look at it as Mean Green continue to impress with another easy win. UTEP is one of the worst teams in College Football and even three plus Touchdowns can get us to take the Miners. Final Score Prediction, North Texas Mean Green win and cover ATS 39-13.

Troy at Coastal Carolina 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : TROY -17 Total 52

Troy has managed to find themselves as one of the best places in the NCAA. The Trojans have become one of only 4 teams that have not given up more than 24 points on the season so far. However, the Trojans are a team that would like to pick up even more offensive production on the season as it has had some problems.

What is great is the Trojans have managed to get 24.9 points a game on the offense this year and the defense has only been giving up 17.7 points a game on the year so far.


Coastal Carolina does not look like it will be a major threat to the scoring streak the Trojans have on the season. The Chanticleers have been able to play well enough ad have only managed to win 1 game on the year and that was way back in the first week of the season. So it is very easy to see the Chanticleers are going to have some problems on the day as they are facing against the Trojans who have been playing great on the year.

Recent Betting Trends:
Trojans are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games on grass.
Chanticleers are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss.

[bmd1803]

San Jose State at Nevada 11/11/17 - College Football Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : NEV -20.5 Total 66.5

San Jose State is going to join the rest of the teams that are playing horrible on the season this year. The Spartans have only managed to pick up a single win on the year and that has been very difficult for the Spartans to swallow on the year.

Tyler Nevens who has been talked about quite a bit this year has not lived up to the hype. Nevens has been able to carry the ball 122 times for a total of 503 yards on the year so far.


With the Wolfpack the team has been playing some horrible football as year just like the Spartans. What is really good for the Wolfpack is one of these teams is going to come out with a second win on the year and that can be something that will make this game into one of the best games of the day on Saturday.

Offensively the rushing attack leader of the Wolfpack has been better than the Spartans. Kelton Moore has been leading the rushing attack for the pack with 108 carries and 649 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Recent Betting Trends:
Spartans are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following a double-digit loss at home.
Wolf Pack are 4-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
Under is 7-3 in Spartans last 10 games on fieldturf.

Georgia State at Texas State 11/11/17 - CFB Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : GAST -5.5 Total 46.5

The Panthers are a team that has been able to pick up some good wins on the year so far. However, the Panthers are a team that has been able to play hard against some of the teams they should have been losing to.

A good case of this for the Panthers is the fact the team was able to beat the Eagles from Georgia Southern. The Panthers were able to be able to put in 21 points, but the defense for the Eagles gave up 17 points.


Texas State has been playing bad ball on the season and it shows with the fact the team has only managed to get a recent win over Coastal Carolina. In the game against the Chanticleers the Bobcats really struggled to get the wins they need to have and that has really hurt the Bobcats in recruiting any of the good recruits that are well known to come out of the state of Texas.

Recent Betting Trends:
Panthers are 22-7 ATS in their last 29 road games.
Bobcats are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Under is 12-3 in Panthers last 15 games on fieldturf.

Middle Tennessee at Charlotte 11/11/17 - NCAAF Picks & Predictionsby Adam

Latest Odds : MTSU -14 Total 44.5

Are the Blue Raiders offense going to explode when they face off against the Charlotte team here? Well, that all remains to be seen, but the one thing the Blue Raiders do have going for them is the fact the Blue Raiders have been able to play very well against teams that are extremely weak on the year.

The Blue Raiders have thrown for 246 yards a game, but the rushing attack has been able to run the ball for 119 yards a game. This has led to the offense getting a total of 20 points a game, but the defense is giving up 24 points a game.


Charlotte has been having some problems on the season and it shows by the fact the team has only been able to pick up a single win on the season and that has not really helped them in getting any type of confidence on the season, especially since the 49ers have not won in a week.

The 49ers have managed to throw for only a total of 124 yards a game on the year, but the rushing attack on the 49ers team has only been able to get 185 yards a game. The offense for the 49ers has been able to convert at a rate of 16 points a game. The defense for the 49ers is giving up a total of 29 points a game.

Recent Betting Trends:
Blue Raiders are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games in November.
49ers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall.
Under is 8-0-1 in Blue Raiders last 9 games overall.
Under is 7-0 in 49ers last 7 vs. a team with a losing record.
Free Betting Pick: Charlotte 49ers +14 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NCAAF/)
Injuries to Middle Tennessee star QB Brent Stockstill derailed the Blue Raiders for most of the middle of this season but now that he is back expect Blue Raiders to finish strong. Even having QB Stockstill back think it's closer than expected win for MTSU. Final Score Prediction, Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders win but fall short ATS 26-20.

Cavaliers at Mavericks 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : CLE -5.5 Total 219.5

Cleveland (5-7) is off to a rough start, but the general consensus is that there's not need to panic yet. The Cavaliers have been terrible on defense. They allow 113.9 points per game, which ranks 28th in the NBA.

The poor defense for Cleveland wasn't helped by the fact that the Cavaliers had to face the high-powered Houston Rockets on Thursday. James Harden and company dropped 117 points on Cleveland with 16 3-pointers. Despite the loss, LeBron James had another great game, with 33 points on 15 of 24 shooting and seven assists. On the season, James averages 29.3 points per game with an incredible shooting percentage of .601.

Kevin Love averages a double-double with 17.6 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. His best game of the year came on Tuesday against Milwaukee, when he put up 32 points on 9 of 14 shooting and pulled down 16 rebounds.


Dallas (2-10) got a win on Wednesday against Washington to stop a six-game losing streak. Rookie guard Dennis Smith Jr. had an all-around performance with 22 points, eight rebounds and eight assists. Smith has notched more than 15 points in the last four games and seems destined for stardom.

Dirk Nowitzki averages just 24.2 minutes and 10.2 points per game. His usage is down, but he can still put up good offensive numbers in short bursts. On October 30 against Utah, the German forward knocked down 4 of 5 3-pointers and had 18 points and five rebounds.

Cavaliers are 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 vs. Western Conference.
Mavericks are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 Saturday games.
Over is 28-11 in Cavaliers last 39 games playing on 1 days rest.
Under is 5-2-1 in Mavericks last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points.
Free Betting Pick: Cleveland Cavaliers -5.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NBA/)
The Cavaliers have just not been very good this year but neither has this Mavericks team. Other than Dallas having the home court edge this one is all in favor of the veteran Cleveland team. Add in Cavaliers having Lebron James and we see Cleveland rolling in this one. Final Score Prediction, Cleveland Cavaliers win and cover ATS 108-94.

Lakers at Bucks 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : MIL -5 Total 214

The Lakers have fallen to 5-7, and murmurs about Lonzo Ball's shooting have gained momentum among the Los Angeles fan base. In a loss on Thursday against Washington, Ball went 3 of 12 from the field and 1 of 7 from 3-point range.

Ball is shooting a .292 percentage from the field and .220 from 3-point range. And an especially surprising metric is his .500 free-throw percentage. Despite the poor shooting , Ball has shown he belongs in other aspects of the game. He dishes out 6.9 assists per game with 6.4 rebounds per game.

Brandon Ingram is having a solid start to the year for the Lakers, with 15.1 points per game. Ingram's usage and production is up from last season. He's also shooting a .466 percentage from the field, compared to his mark of .413 last season.


Milwaukee (4-6) will play San Antonio on Friday before taking a shot at Los Angeles on Saturday. Heading into that matchup with the Spurs, the Bucks had lost four straight. Two or Milwaukee's last three opponents have scored more than 120 points against the Bucks. Milwaukee surrenders 108.7 points per game, which ranks 24th in the NBA.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has had an unbelievable start to the season, with 31.9 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.6 blocks per game. On Tuesday against Cleveland, Antetokounmpo had 40 points on 16 of 21 shooting. The "Greek Freak" has a .601 shooting percentage and has shot a respectable .785 from the free-throw line.

Recent Betting Trends:
Lakers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 1 days rest.
Bucks are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.
Under is 12-5 in Lakers last 17 overall.
Under is 6-1 in Bucks last 7 Saturday games.
Free Betting Pick: LA Lakers +5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NBA/)
On paper the Bucks have big edge against young Lakers but still think Los Angeles finds a way to put upset scare in Milwaukee. Los Angeles future star PG Ball will go for double double and be the key in Lakers keeping this game close. Final Score Prediction, Milwaukee Bucks win but fall short ATS 107-104.

[bmd1803]

Bulls at Spurs 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : SAN -11.5 Total 194

Chicago (2-7) is one of three NBA teams with just two wins. The Bulls average just 94.3 points per game, which is the worst number in the league. No player on the team is putting up better than 16 points per game this season.

The leading scorer for Chicago, however, is rookie center Lauri Markkanen out of Arizona. He averages 15.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. He's along the same lines as New York big man Kristaps Porzingis, in that he's a 7-footer with deadly shooting range. Markkanen has knocked down at least two 3-pointers in each game this season and is shooting a .381 percentage from the outside.


San Antonio (7-4) had a rocky beginning to the season but has started to put things together with three-straight wins. The Spurs had a nice 120-107 win against the Clippers on Wednesday without Kawhi Leonard. LaMarcus Aldridge was great, with 25 points on 10 of 19 shooting. Aldridge has carried San Antonio during its winning streak. On the season, he averages 22.6 points and 8.3 rebounds per game.

Leonard has missed every game this season and is reportedly behind schedule on his recovery. Greg Popovich and the Spurs can handle a slow return from Leonard, as they're a playoff team without him. However, their main concern is whether he'll be able to be 100 percent when he returns and if he'll be injury-prone in the future. Leonard averaged 25.5 points per game last season and is one of the best defenders in the game.

Recent Betting Trends:
Bulls are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games.
Spurs are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games.
Under is 5-1 in Bulls last 6 overall.
Over is 20-9 in Spurs last 29 overall.
Free Betting Pick: San Antonio Spurs -11.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NBA/)
The Bulls lose big at home last night as the dysfunctional young Chicago team just can't figure out a way to turn it around. Spurs are also in back to back but San Antonio was at home in win - that confidence carries over tonight for Spurs. Final Score Prediction, San Antonio Spurs win and cover ATS 108-94.

Magic at Nuggets 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : DEN -8 Total 222

Orlando was 1-2 in a recent homestand, so the Magic may be happy to be on the road as they play the Nuggets in Denver Saturday. Orlando is 7-4 and leads the Southeast division.

A big part of Orlando's surge is the 3-point shooting of Aaron Gordon. Gordon shot 8-11 from the field overall in the last game. Last week he is 9-17 from behind the arc. He has hit 58 percent from behind the arc this year. In their last game Gordon scored 21, Evan Fournier has 23 and Nikola Vucevic had 24, only the second time this year a team has had three players score 20 points.

Fournier is averaging 20.5, Gordon is at 19.3 and Vucevic is at 18.5. Orlando is eighth in the league in scoring at 109.3 points per game, and they are giving up 105.6.


Denver is 7-5 and coming off a big win against the Thunder. The Nuggets have won four of the last five games. The Nuggets are outscoring opponents by 8.8 in the third quarter, highest in the NBA. The Nuggets are averaging 106.2 points and giving up 105.1.

Nikola Jokic leads the Nuggets with 17.6 points, 11.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. Paul Milsap is averaging 15.5 points. Four more are averaging in double figures. The Nuggets are shooting 36 percent from behind the arc, but they are hitting 50 percent of their 2-point shots.

Nuggets are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall.

Timberwolves at Suns 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : MIN -9 Total 227

The Minnesota Timberwolves (7 - 4, 3 - 3 Away) are on the road this weekend to take on the Phoenix Suns (4 - 8, 2 - 4 Home). Phoenix will be hosting this game at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, AZ. Phoenix has lost three of their past four games and the young Suns look to be as dysfunctional as ever. Minnesota has won four of their past five games and they'll come in here trying to make a statement victory come to fruition.

The Minnesota Timberwolves are starting to find their flow as a team this year with newcomer Jimmy Butler acting as a catalyst. Karl Anthony-Towns (21 PPG, 11 RPG) is a dominant force in the block and he'll be giving Phoenix everything that they can handle in this game. Minnesota is scoring 109 PPG on offense this season while shooting 47% from the floor as a team. Minnesota is giving up 11 PPG to opposing teams this year.


The Phoenix Suns are struggling with their identity with a young roster still trying to find its flow. Devin Booker (22 PPG) is the only dependable source of scoring on the team and he'll have full run of the shot clock in this game. Phoenix is scoring 106 PPG on offense this year while giving up 116 PPG to opposing teams. Phoenix is trying to snap a four game skid in this match up.

Recent Betting Trends:
Timberwolves are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Suns are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.
Under is 4-0 in Timberwolves last 4 overall.
Over is 5-2 in Suns last 7 overall.
Free Betting Pick: Phoenix Suns +9 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NBA/)
This Suns team has really struggled at home this year but give us nearly double digits and we just can't pass it up. Facing a T-Wolves team that are just 2-3 ATS on the road we just can't see laying this many points. Final Score Prediction, Minnesota Timberwolves win but fall short ATS 107-102.

Nets at Jazz 11/11/17 - NBA Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : UTAH -9.5 Total 210

The Brooklyn Nets are on the road to take on the Utah Jazz this weekend. Utah will be hosting this game at the Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City, UT. Brooklyn comes into this game on the second night of a back to back set. Utah will be well rested and ready to lay down some physical play against Brooklyn. Brooklyn is banged up right now which leaves the Nets at a disadvantage.

Brooklyn has seen serious damage to their front court in the last week with nagging injuries to Trevor Booker, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Jarrett Allen. Brooklyn is already a team that struggles with physical play and that will be magnified here. Brooklyn is scoring 112 PPG on offense this season while giving up 116 PPG to opposing squads. Brooklyn is led by newcomer D'Angelo Russell (20 PPG, 6 APG) and he'll be the focal point of the offensive attack.


The Utah Jazz are an extremely active team on defense and that has led Utah to holding teams to just 101 PPG on defense this year. Ricky Rubio (16 PPG, 6 APG) has been struggling big time since coming over from Minnesota and he'll need to get his head in the game to get Utah back in the win column. Utah is only averaging 99 PPG on offense and that number just isn't sustainable if Utah wants to start winning some games.

Recent Betting Trends:
Nets are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Jazz are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 home games.
Under is 4-1 in Nets last 5 games playing on 0 days rest.
Over is 4-0 in Jazz last 4 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400.
Free Betting Pick: Brooklyn Nets +9.5 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NBA/)
With both teams playing last night we expect sloppy ugly night on Saturday. In those cases always love getting nearly double digits. Nets offense can score in bunches and think that is enough to at worst get the ATS cover. Final Score Prediction, Utah Jazz win but fall short ATS 106-99.

Sabres at Canadiens 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Jim

Latest Odds : MON -140 Total 5.5

Buffalo is a team that has not really been a threat to a lot of teams on the season so far. However, the Sabres are a team that could easily pick up some extra wins if they are able to come out strong on the ice and definitely against the Canadiens the Sabres definitely have a chance to be a commanding team in the game.

The Sabres on the season have seen the offensive threat on the power play really be a major mess. The Sabres are converting on the power play only at a clip of 11.5%, but the defense does good by killing off 81.8% of the power plays.


The Canadiens are we mentioned are not much better than the Sabres when it comes to the offense or defensive side of the puck. The struggles may actually be a little bit worse for the Sabres and that could be scary for the Canadiens fans who thought the team had come close to turning over the leaf to a winning club.

The power play on the Canadiens is converting at a clip of 15.9%, which is not great, but definitely better than the Sabres. The defense for the Candiens is horrible at killing it off with 74.1% of the power plays killed off.

Recent Betting Trends:
Sabres are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing record.
Canadiens are 5-2 in their last 7 overall.
Over is 4-0-1 in Sabres last 5 road games.
Over is 3-0-1 in Canadiens last 4 vs. Atlantic.
Free Betting Pick: Buffalo Sabres +130 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Sabres may end up being on the road here, but the Sabres are the better team. The Canadiens seem to have trouble this year stringing together good line changes, let alone a strong offensive or defensive showing. The Sabres win this game 3-1.

[bmd1803]

Avalanche at Senators 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictionsby Mike

Latest Odds : OTT -120 Total 5.5

The Avalanche and the Senators will be facing off again in Sweden here. However, the game is one that is going to be a great matchup as the Senators definitely have a player who is very familiar with the Avalanche team as they have Mat Duchene from the Avs in a trade that happened in the middle of the first period between these two teams and it is definitely something the Avalanche will be looking back on as either a good move or a bad move.


The Avalanche on the season have had a decent offense that has been able to put in 3.4 goals a game on the year. However, the defense for the Avalanche has struggled as the Avalanche defense is giving up 3.4 goals a game on the year.

The Senators on the other hand are scoring goals at a rate of 3.6 goals a game. The defense for the Senators is only slightly better as the Senators defense is giving up goals at a rate of 3.1 goals a game on the season so far.

Recent Betting Trends:
Avalanche are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. Eastern Conference.
Senators are 7-2 in their last 9 Saturday games.
Over is 9-2-2 in Avalanche last 13 Saturday games.
Over is 4-1 in Senators last 5 vs. Central.
Free Betting Pick: Ottawa Senators -120 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The home crowd is going to be missing for either team here and that makes this a game based off of the pure talent of the players. Look for the NHL International series game 2 to go to Ottawa as the trade of Duchene will hurt the Avs, but so will the way the Senators are going to watch the net. Senators win this one 3-1.

[bmd1803]

Blue Jackets at Red Wings 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : DET -135 Total 5.5

The Blue Jackets are playing in back to back games, but they do not have to travel far for the games. The game on Friday night was in Columbus and it was against a team the Blue Jackets are familiar with in the Hurricanes. However, the Hurricanes are not a team that usually wears the Blue Jackets out to much so that could help them out coming into face the Red Wings.

Seth Jones is the player who has managed to lead the Blue Jackets for points on the season. Jones, while he does not lead in goals or assist, has taken over the team lead by getting 12 points on the year and is coming into the game sitting on a +8 margin.


For the Red Wings they have Friday off, but that may not help them out that much as they have to figure out what exactly went wrong in the game against the Flames. In the game against the Flames the Red Wings allowed a total of 6 goals to be scored and looked a little bit on the flat side even though they did not even play in back to back games.

The Red Wings are led by Dylan Larkin still on the year when it comes to scoring. Larkin has managed to get a total of 14 points on the year with 12 of those points coming in the form of assist so far.

Recent Betting Trends:
Blue Jackets are 6-2 in their last 8 vs. a team with a losing record.
Red Wings are 7-1 in their last 8 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days.
Over is 5-1 in Blue Jackets last 6 road games.
Over is 2-0-2 in Red Wings last 4 vs. Metropolitan.
Free Betting Pick: Columbus Blue Jackets +125 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Blue Jackets are a strong team and can handle the back to back games. Look for the Blue Jackets to be able to handle a Red Wings team that is still trying to figure out the defense and why it is so bad in some games. Blue Jackets win here 4-1.

[bmd1803]

Islanders at Blues 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictionsby Jim

Latest Odds : STL -170 Total 5.5

The Islanders have the offense that is able to hang with almost any team in the league. The downside is the defense is not matching the offense’s production on the season and that has really caused the Islanders to have quite a few issues on the year so far.

The Islanders offense is able to get a total of 3.6 goals a game so far this season. The Islanders defense is what has cost the team some of the wins they should have had on the year as the defense is giving up 3.1 goals a game, but usually gives up that amount when the offense cannot find the net.


The Blues are coming into this game with only 3 losses all season and that has been because of the net play of Jake Allen who has managed to be like a magician for the defense. The Blues are the second rated defense in all the NHL and that is going to make a huge difference as the old football saying goes, which can be applied to hockey here the defense wins the game.

Speaking of the defense for the Blues it is only giving up 2.3 goals a game on the year so far. However, the offense for the Blues is playing decent as well as they are scoring at a clip of 3.3 goals a game.

Recent Betting Trends:
Islanders are 5-1 in their last 6 vs. a team with a winning record.
Blues are 4-0 in their last 4 games playing on 1 days rest.
Over is 8-1 in Islanders last 9 overall.
Under is 6-0 in Blues last 6 vs. Metropolitan.
Free Betting Pick: Saint Louis Blues -170 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Islanders defense has been something to cost the Islanders a lot of games this year. However, the Blues are the exact opposite and the defense controls the games and the tempo. Look for the Blues to be able to easily hand the Islanders a big loss here 4-1.

[bmd1803]

Penguins at Predators 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : NSH -120 Total 5.5

The Penguins season has been one that they have had to learn quite a bit. Yes, the Penguins learned last season how to cope without Crosby on the ice when he was injured, but now he is back and this year the Penguins still are not relying to heavily on the offensive threat they had in Crosby and when he is on the ice, he does not seem to be drawing nearly as much attention as what he used to.

Matt Murray has been the main goalie for the Penguins on the season, but he has had some struggles. Behind him the Penguins do have a lack of quality depth, but they still like to play some good games. Murray has a save percentage of 90.6% this season.


The Predators have found the offense can come to life and it does not have to come from people named Forsberg of Johansen to get the job done all the time. Yes, the Predators are still relying rather heavily on these two key players, but they are not relying on them exclusively to get the job done, which is a good thing for the Preds.

With the Predators they have had Rinne in net most of the season. He has managed to keep his goals against average at a very respectable 2.08 goals a game allowed. However, he is saving 93.4% of the shots that have been sent his way.

Recent Betting Trends:
Penguins are 2-6 in their last 8 Saturday games.
Predators are 20-7 in their last 27 home games.
Under is 7-2 in Penguins last 9 vs. Western Conference.
Over is 3-1-1 in Predators last 5 games playing on 3 or more days rest.
Free Betting Pick: Nashville Predators -120 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Predators offense and the defense seem to go together really well so far this year for the Predators. This is contrary to the Penguins who have seen some struggles come up at times. With that being the case the Penguins will lose the game on the struggles of the defense 3-2.

[bmd1803]

Jets at Coyotes 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : WIN -125 Total 6

Blake Wheeler has finally showed up for the Jets this season and taken his place atop the leaderboard for the points total for the Jets. Wheeler started off very slow this season, but now for the Jets is back on top at 21 points. What is even better for the Jets fans is the fact that Wheeler is leading in only assist this year with 16.

The person Wheeler is typically feeding the puck to for the assist is Mark Scheifele who has managed to pull down 9 goals on the year so far for the Jets. Scheifele could easily build on this lead even more if he was able to continue to play at the high level the fans have come to expect.


The Coyotes season has just been painful to watch for anyone with an interest in hockey. The Coyotes have not really been able to do much of anything. The wins they have managed to get on the season have been pure luck wins and typically were a bounce of a bad puck on the opponent that managed just sneak by the goalie and get into the net for the score.

Recent Betting Trends:
Jets are 10-1 in their last 11 vs. Western Conference.
Coyotes are 1-7 in their last 8 home games.
Over is 5-1-2 in Jets last 8 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400.
Under is 11-4-2 in Coyotes last 17 vs. Western Conference.
Free Betting Pick: Winnipeg Jets -125 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Jets are going to dominate in this game. The Coyotes have improved some and even against the Blues it was only a 1 goal loss, but the Coyotes have not improved that much. The Jets win this game over the Coyotes 3-1.

[bmd1803]

Canucks at Sharks 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Thomas

Latest Odds : SJ -125 Total 5.5

Vancouver had a game on Thursday night that seen them unable to do much of anything. The Canucks offense was unreliable and the defense just could not help the goalie out at turning away the Ducks offense and that is what cost them the game. This is in contrast to the Sharks who have been off since dropping a game to the Lightning. The game against the Lightning was almost like the Canucks game, but the Sharks have more time off to figure out what went wrong.


On the season the Sharks are scoring goals at a rate of 2.6 goals a game. The defense is giving up the goals at a rate of 2.5 goals a game. So this is a very slim margin for a good team to live off of if they are going to keep winning.

The Canucks are coming into the game with a season average of 2.8 goals being scored per game. The defense for the Canucks is giving up 2.4 goals a game on the year so far. So they do have a better margin for the wins.

Recent Betting Trends:
Canucks are 4-1 in their last 5 games following a loss of 3 or more goals.
Sharks are 4-1 in their last 5 home games.
Under is 4-1-1 in Canucks last 6 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation.
Under is 15-4-8 in Sharks last 27 Saturday games.
Free Betting Pick: Vancouver Canucks +115 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Canucks loss was not as bad as the Sharks loss. However, the Sharks did have more time off to recover. The difference here is the fact the Canucks are just a better defensive team and that is what will win the game for the Canucks 3-1.

[bmd1803]

Oilers at Rangers 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Adam

Latest Odds : NYR -117 Total 5.5

The Edmonton Oilers (6 - 8 - 1, 13 pts) are on the road for a tough match up against the NY Rangers (8 - 7 - 2, 18 pts). New York will be hosting this game at the Madison Square garden in New York, NY. New York rolls into town off of a nice win over the Boston Bruins while Edmonton just scored an overtime win against the New York Islanders.

Edmonton comes to town a game removed from watching Leon Draisaitl score the game winning goal over the Islanders. Edmonton is the worst offensive team in the NHL this year but it hasn't been due to any laziness on the part of Connor McDavid (6 goals, 12 assists). McDavid has turned in one of the most impressive early-season performances in the league this year. McDavid's excellent play this year hasn't been enough to keep Edmonton in the win column but that could change here.


The NY Rangers are 10th in the NHL in goals scored this season, averaging 3.3 scores per game. Center Mika Zibanejad (8 goals, 10 assists) has been dominant in the early going and his match up with Connor McDavid will easily be the highlight of the night for hockey fans. New York is 5th in the NHL in power play percentage which puts them in a unique position to rack up some goals over Edmonton in what could be a high scoring game.

Recent Betting Trends:
Oilers are 4-10 in their last 14 vs. Eastern Conference.
Rangers are 35-17 in their last 52 vs. Pacific.
Under is 7-0 in Oilers last 7 road games.
Over is 6-1 in Rangers last 7 overall.
Free Betting Pick: New York Rangers -117 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Oilers have had quite a few offensive woes on the season so far. That has really cost the OIlers quite a bit in the way of wins, even with some decent defense. That is what will be the problem in this game as e like NY to defeat Edmonton in this game, 5 - 3.

Maple Leafs at Bruins 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions by Mike

Latest Odds : TOR -115 Total 5.5

The Toronto Maple Leafs are drawing a road match up against the Boston Bruins for this weekend. Boston will be hosting this game at the TD Garden in Boston, MA. Boston and Toronto will be taking each other on for the second night in a row which means both teams should be at the top of their game against one another. Boston has fallen to the middle of the pack in the Atlantic while Toronto continues to pace atop the division.

The Boston Bruins come into this game as one of the most disappointing teams in the NHL. Boston is ranked 16th in the NHL in goals scored this season and that has largely been due to the strong play of David Pastrnak (9 goals, 7 assists). However, even with Pastrnak's strong play the rest of the Bruins have struggled to get things going. Boston is 3rd in the NHL in penalty kill which shows that they have potential for a shut-out defensive effort.


The Toronto Maple Leafs are looking to continue their upward ascent in the Atlantic with a big win here. Toronto is 2nd in the NHL in goals scored per game, racking up 4 per outing. Auston Matthews (10 goals, 9 assists) leads the team in scoring but he hasn't been enough to help overcome Toronto's middling lackluster defense. Toronto is giving up nearly 4 goals per game to opposing teams.

Recent Betting Trends:
Maple Leafs are 7-2 in their last 9 vs. a team with a losing record.
Bruins are 4-13 in their last 17 games playing on 0 days rest.
Over is 5-1 in Maple Leafs last 6 vs. Atlantic.
Under is 4-1 in Bruins last 5 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Toronto Maple Leafs -115 (http://picksandparlays.net/index/odds/league/NHL/)
The Maple Leafs have a great offense and a defense that is under-performing to say the least. However, the Bruins do not have a good offense and the Bruins have relied on David Pastrnak quite a bit this year. Relying on only a single player for offense will cost the Bruins in this game. We like Toronto to defeat Boston here, 4 - 2.

This race which was run as The Edgemere Handicap until 1981. The Red Smith Handicap honors the late sportswriter Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith (1905-1982). A Pulitzer Prize winner in 1976, Smith covered sports for 55 years, most notably for The New York Herald Tribune and later The New York Times, writing a widely syndicated column for both outlets. According to his obituary published in the Times: "He preferred covering sports like baseball, football, boxing and horse playing ('not horse racing,' he emphasized) and disdained what he called 'back and forth' sports like basketball and hockey." The Edgemere Handicap was also the name of a mile and a furlong race on the main track last run here in 1957. Here in the 58th running of The Smith ... #3 GET JETS, a 6-1 shot, has hit the board in "POWER RUN FASHION" in three straight, including back-to-back "POWER RUN WINS" in his last two outings. Jockey John Velazquez has been in his irons on three previous occasions, hitting the board in each, winning twice, and is back this afternoon here in Ozone Park for his 4th ride, gunning for a "Hat Trick Win!" #12 MESSI, a rare Greman-brade racing in North America, and a 10-1 BOMB, has produced a quartet of "POWER RUNS" in his last five outings, hitting the board in three of those efforts.

# 2 OAK BROOK 3/1

# 4 REVVED UP 5/1

# 8 FLASHY CHELSEY 5/1

My selection for this event is OAK BROOK. Should best this field here, showing quite good figures of late. Going in a turf route race gives this gelding a competitive shot. Is tough not to consider given the company run in lately. REVVED UP - Has solid Equibase Speed Figures and has to be considered for a bet for this event. This colt looks strong in this race since McGaughey has a solid win percent with horses going this distance. FLASHY CHELSEY - Is a definite contender - given the 106 Equibase Speed Figure from his most recent race. Solid rider and trainer combo winning 25 percent of their races working together.

#10 JONNY'S CHOICE (ML=9/2)
#4 TISDALE (ML=7/2)
#8 UCANTHANKMELATER (ML=10/1)
#5 SOUTH TEXAS LINGO (ML=12/1)


JONNY'S CHOICE - Finished out of the money last out at Santa Anita, but was within five lengths of the winner. Opening at 9/2 makes me think he's got a chance. Here is a true horse for the course. Loves the track here at Del Mar. TISDALE - Hess moves this animal here to Del Mar from Santa Anita. Looking at the horse's past performance lines, he has shown the ability to win at different racing venues. A horse coming back this soon after a strong race is a good sign. UCANTHANKMELATER - Have to give this gelding a shot. Ran a solid outing in the last race within the last month or so. Coming off a fourth place finish at Santa Anita, some may skip this horse. I'm not. He just missed hitting the show spot, and has decent M/L odds today. SOUTH TEXAS LINGO - Don't often see a positive return on investment like +98. This rider/handler duo has done well together over the last year. This one could be a possible overlay in this race at morning odds of 12/1. Finished fifth in last race at Santa Anita but was close at the finish.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 FREDDIES DREAM (ML=3/1), #6 ROMAN TIZZY (ML=4/1), #3 HEIR OF STORM (ML=8/1),

FREDDIES DREAM - This probable favorite hasn't been to the track in awhile. No morning drills since last race. ROMAN TIZZY - Equibase speed figs tell a story of decreasing form. HEIR OF STORM - Not probable that the speed figure he garnered on October 21st will hold up in this race.

#3 DIZZY DANCER (ML=9/5)
#2 UNDERWRITE (ML=5/1)


DIZZY DANCER - After the event aboard this animal on Oct 27th, the jockey is going to be in touch with the gelding much better. Morey had been running this gelding at higher levels recently. Did win a $12,500 Claiming race though, on Jul 14th. Could do it again here. When this jock and trainer unite you have to take a look. Velasco and Morey have been wonderful together.

CRUSHER - You always figure that this equine has a shot to be victorious, but he just misses most of the time. Registered a run-of-the-mill speed rating last out in a $4,000 Claiming race on October 9th. Improbable to see an improved performance off of that figure. WOODY'S FOLLY - Hasn't been close at all lately. ROCKIN ROBIN - When looking at today's Equibase class figure, he will have to register a much better speed figure than last time out to compete in this dirt route.

# 5 POINT OF ORDER 20/1

POINT OF ORDER is the most favorable bet in this affair particularly if the morning line of 20/1 holds. Is hard not to look at based on Equibase Speed Figures which have been very good - 50 avg - of late. Has been running well lately and will almost certainly be on the front end early on. DISTINCT PASSION - Sire -With Distinction- has produced offspring who have done solidly in their first askings. Blinkers on could be the difference here. McClachrie is terrific with first time entrants. THUNDER RIDE - Going on blinkers can produce noticeable speed boosts. Casse has a very solid win percent with horses running in turf sprint races. Overall, this conditioner has been lucrative at this distance/surface.

Preview: Louisiana Lafayette at Ole Miss
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Coming off its first road win in nearly a year, Ole Miss will look to build on the momentum of last week's thrilling win over Kentucky as it hosts Louisiana Lafayette on Saturday afternoon. The Rebels scored the go-ahead touchdown with five seconds remaining in a 37-34 win over the Wildcats, and would love nothing more than to repeat the feat against Louisiana before closing out the season with two difficult games.

Ole Miss is ineligible for a bowl game this season due to a self-imposed ban, but it's clear the Rebels still want to finish on a high note in what has been an up-and-down season. Quarterback Jordan Ta'amu was sensational for the second straight game in place of injured starter Shea Patterson, throwing for 382 yards and four touchdowns - including the game-winning strike to D.K. Metcalf in the corner of the end zone with time winding down. Ole Miss returns home to face a Louisiana team that kept its flickering Sun Belt title hopes alive with a 17-14 triumph over South Alabama. The Ragin' Cajuns have won three of four following a three-game losing streak.

TV: Noon ET, SEC Network. LINE: Ole Miss -20

ABOUT LOUISIANA (4-4): The Ragin' Cajuns handed the offense to freshman quarterback Levi Lewis last week, and he responded by passing for 110 yards and two touchdowns and adding 129 yards on the ground in the pivotal victory over the Jaguars. His rushing contributions bolster a solid Louisiana rush attack that has produced 18 touchdowns and averages 4.3 yards per carry this season. The passing game hasn't been quite as prolific, with eight receivers accounting for the Cajuns' 11 scores through the air.

ABOUT OLE MISS (4-5): The Rebels put themselves in position to win with four consecutive defensive second-half stops after struggling to rein in the Kentucky offense in the early going. “One of the biggest adjustments is that we had a pressure package dialed up, and I felt like for some reason we weren’t blitzing with a lot of speed,” defensive coordinator Wesley McGriff told reporters afterward. “We decided at halftime, based on the roster they were giving in the run game, that we were going to go with a certain front in coverage.” Ole Miss finishes its schedule with games against Texas A&M and Mississippi State.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Ta'amu has passed for 750 yards while accounting for six touchdowns in his past two games.

2. Ole Miss has scored points on 94.4 percent of its red-zone visits, the 10th-best rate in Division I.

3. Louisiana ranks 10th in the 12-team Sun Belt Conference in total yards.

PREDICTION: Ole Miss 45, Louisiana 27

Preview: Oklahoma State at Iowa State
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

No. 21 Iowa State had a chance to control its own destiny in the race for a spot in the Big 12 championship game but suffered a disappointing loss at West Virginia last week. The Cyclones will try to bounce back by securing their third win over a top-15 opponent when they host No. 15 Oklahoma State on Saturday.

Iowa State, which knocked off Oklahoma and TCU during a four-game winning streak to put itself in first place in the Big 12, could not muster the same effort at West Virginia last week in a 20-16 setback but quickly turned the page. "These kids keep grinding away, and I really appreciate that about them," Cyclones coach Matt Campbell told reporters. "I expect nothing less. They were really good (the day after the loss), and I think (they are) continuing to grow and understand what it takes to truly be successful." The Cowboys are coming off their own setback after a wild Bedlam showdown against rival Oklahoma saw them fall 62-52. "The competitive nature of this sport, it's difficult when you have games like that," Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy told reporters. "There are a lot of emotions involved. There's nobody in this stadium that wants to compete and win more than me, but I've been in this long enough to know that when we get what we're asking for out of our players, we as a staff have to have respect for that. We just came up a little bit short."

TV: Noon, ET, ABC. LINE: Oklahoma State -6.5

ABOUT OKLAHOMA STATE (7-2, 4-2 Big 12): The Cowboys came away from the Bedlam loss feeling confident in the way they played and confident in their leadership moving forward. "I think leadership is going to be huge this week," center Brad Lundblade told reporters after the loss. "It takes more leadership after you lose than it does after you win, honestly. We have great leadership and all different types of leaders in all of the different positions groups, so I have no doubt that we'll be ready to go next week." One leader is quarterback Mason Rudolph, who threw for 448 yards and five TDs in the loss and guides an offense second in the FBS in scoring average at 45.3 points.

ABOUT IOWA STATE (6-3, 4-2): The Cyclones are going to need to generate more offense to keep up with the Cowboys and they failed to reach 20 points in either of their last two contests. Senior Kyle Kempt, who took over at quarterback after a loss to Texas in the Big 12 opener and guided the team to wins over Oklahoma and TCU, is completing 66.9 percent of his passes with 10 TDs and three interceptions but only found the end zone once last week. Kempt and the offense are hoping for a bounce-back performance from the Iowa State defense, which was carved up for 524 yards at West Virginia after limiting TCU to 307 in the previous contest.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Iowa State OL Josh Knipfel (ankle) is questionable.

2. Oklahoma State RB Justice Hill ran for 228 yards last week and collected 100 or more yards rushing in five of six Big 12 games.

3. The Cowboys took the last five in the series, including two at the Cyclones.

Preview: Rutgers at Penn State
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

No. 13 Penn State has seen a promising season derailed by back-to-back narrow road losses, and it will try to take out its frustration at home against an improving Rutgers squad on Saturday. Following a late collapse in a damaging one-point loss at Ohio State, the Nittany Lions fell on a last-second field goal at Michigan State last Saturday, tumbling from No. 2 in the country to a likely afterthought for the College Football Playoff.

"The fact that we've lost by a total of four points in the last two games just doesn't really mean much to us," senior wide receiver DeAndre Thompkins told reporters. "The games are in the past. Losses are in the past. Wins are in the past. What matters now is Rutgers." A defense that entered the game against the Buckeyes as the best in the nation in terms of scoring has given up 1,003 total yards in the losses, and stars Trace McSorley (three interceptions last week) and Saquon Barkley (107 rushing yards on 35 carries during the losing streak) have struggled to keep pace. Those two helped Penn State outgain Rutgers by a stunning 549-87 margin in a 39-0 win last season, the Lions' 10th straight victory in the series. Since a 56-0 loss at Ohio State, the Scarlet Knights have won three of their last four, including a 31-24 triumph over Maryland last week.

TV: Noon ET, Big Ten Network. LINE: Penn State -31

ABOUT RUTGERS (4-5, 3-3 Big Ten): Gus Edwards ran for 109 yards against the Terrapins and hauled in the decisive 23-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter as the Scarlet Knights pulled within two victories of becoming bowl eligible for the first time since 2014. "We have been saying that, that we can get into a bowl game," running back Robert Martin - who had 69 yards and a TD - told reporters. "We are the only people who believe in ourselves." Junior quarterback Giovanni Rescigno has thrown for over 100 yards in back-to-back games for the first time this season after amassing 107 and a TD pass against Maryland.

ABOUT PENN STATE (7-2, 4-2): Barkley has fewer than 20 rushes in three of his last four games - including a season low-tying 14 last week - and his production in the passing game has leveled off as well. "Obviously, we want to get the ball in Saquon's hands as much as we possibly can," head coach James Franklin said at his weekly press conference. "But we won't force it. And once again, if people are taking so much time keeping Saquon from getting the ball, it creates other opportunities. I think Trace threw for about 400 yards last week. That's going to happen when you overcompensate, it creates opportunities in other areas." McSorley actually had 381 yards - a season high - but his three interceptions represented the most he has thrown in a game since the Rose Bowl last season.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Scarlet Knights DB Kiy Hester has three interceptions - two of which he returned for TDs - over a five-game span.

2. Nittany Lions WR DaeSean Hamilton has five TD catches and three 100-yard efforts over his last five games.

3. McSorley needs 140 passing yards to surpass Matt McGloin (6,390) and move into third place on the school's all-time list.\

Nov 8, 2017

No. 24 North Carolina State came so close to a signature victory at home last week and now must regroup in a hurry to avoid another ACC defeat when it visits a surging Boston College team Saturday afternoon. The Wolfpack were within three points early in the fourth quarter and were driving down seven in the final minute against then-No. 5 Clemson before a late interception doomed their chances at an upset and a spot atop the ACC's Atlantic Division.

There was some rumbling of poor officiating and even an accusation that the Tigers may have cheated with the use of laptops on the sidelines, but N.C. State has been forced to reset and turn its attention to the Eagles. "It's a team we didn't play well against last year," coach Dave Doeren told the media while referencing a 21-14 loss to Boston College in 2016. "They beat us and we didn't play well. We had had a lot of penalties, took touchdowns off the board on offense and defensively we gave up a halfback pass at the end of the game and a throwback play on a two-point play. They executed well, and we didn't." The Eagles have been executing extremely well of late with three straight wins while averaging 40.3 points. Freshman A.J. Dillon continued his surge with 149 rushing yards and a touchdown in a Friday night win over Florida State prior to a bye week.

TV: Noon ET, ABC. LINE: North Carolina State -3

ABOUT NORTH CAROLINA STATE (6-3, 4-1 ACC): Junior Ryan Finley is second in the ACC in passing yards (2,519), completions (220) and completion percentage (65.7) after he was 31-for-50 for 338 yards in last week's loss. His favorite target is sophomore Kelvin Harmon, who is second in the conference with 799 receiving yards, including an average of 124.5 over his last four games. Senior defensive end Bradley Chubb was held without a sack or a share of a sack for just the third time this season against Clemson, but he leads the league with 7.5 on the season and owns two sacks and a forced fumble in two previous games versus Boston College.

ABOUT BOSTON COLLEGE (5-4, 3-3): After sharing the workload early in the season, Dillon has emerged as a true No. 1 back and is averaging 133 yards over a five-game span, during which he has found the end zone six times. Redshirt freshman quarterback Anthony Brown has five TD passes against one interception during the winning streak, but he's completed 30 percent of his passes or less in two of those contests. All-ACC defensive lineman Harold Landry missed the Florida State win with an ankle injury and coach Steve Addazio told reporters this week that Landry's status was "unclear."

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Eagles lead the series 9-5, including a 6-2 advantage at home.

2. Finley has thrown all three of his interceptions this season in the last two games - both losses.

3. The Eagles entered last year's meeting with a 12-game ACC losing streak, but they are 4-5 in conference play ever since.

Nov 8, 2017

The co-leaders of the Big Ten’s East Division clash when No. 16 Michigan State travels to face No. 11 Ohio State on Saturday afternoon. The Spartans pulled into a tie with the Buckeyes when they upset Penn State 27-24 at home last weekend while Ohio State was dominated by Iowa 55-24 on the road.

Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio’s squad usually relies on a hard-nosed defense and a relentless running game, but quarterback Brian Lewerke has been red hot over the last two weeks, throwing for a school-record 445 yards two weeks ago before settling for an even 400 in the win over the Nittany Lions. Not that the Spartans aren’t tough defensively, ranking third in the country in rushing defense - allowing just 87 yards a game. They’ll be tested by the Buckeyes, though, who are 20th in the nation in rushing offense at 235.3 yards a contest and are led by freshman J.K. Dobbins’ 914 yards. While Urban Meyer’s squad is averaging a Big Ten-best 43.8 points and 549 yards of offense, Michigan State has been able to hold Ohio State in check in recent years while holding the Buckeyes to 17 or fewer points in four of their last six meetings.

TV: Noon ET, Fox. LINE: Ohio State -15.5

ABOUT MICHIGAN STATE (7-2, 5-1 Big Ten): While Lewerke is rightfully getting a lot of credit for the surge in the Spartans' passing game, the team's young receiving corps also deserves some kudos for their play as the team has uncovered a new wrinkle to its offense. Darrell Stewart Jr. had 11 catches for 98 yards and freshman Cody White added nine for 165 yards and two touchdowns while Felton Davis III registered eight receptions for 95 yards and a pair of scores against Northwestern. It was Davis as the dominant pass catcher with 12 grabs for 181 yards and a score while seven other players had receptions against Penn State, showing the Spartans' depth and the difficult task the Ohio State defense will have shutting down a suddenly red-hot passing game.

ABOUT OHIO STATE (7-2, 5-1): There were a lot of position groups to blame after the blowout loss to Iowa, but one that came under a lot of scrutiny was the Buckeyes' linebackers. Starters Chris Worley, Dante Booker and Jerome Baker had trouble covering Iowa tight ends, who caught four touchdowns in the contest, and simply didn't play up to the level they expect of themselves. The trio of two seniors and one junior (Baker) must raise their level of play against Michigan State, which has had big rushing days against Ohio State in the past and now boasts a running quarterback in Lewerke that the Buckeyes will have to keep a constant eye on.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Sophomore LB Joe Bachie continues to be Mr. Everything for the Michigan State defense, leading the team with 77 tackles and two forced fumbles, ranking second in tackles for loss (7.5) and tying for third in sacks (3).

2. Ohio State ranks eighth in the country in tackles for loss with 74, led by DL Nick Bosa's 10.5 and DE Sam Hubbard's 6.5.

3. In the six regular-season meetings between the two schools since 2008, the visiting team has won each time.

While first-year Indiana coach Tom Allen can take a certain amount of comfort in how relatively competitive his team has been during Big Ten play, second-year coach Lovie Smith's young Illinois squad has given him little reason to believe it can stop its long conference losing streak. The only two Big Ten teams still looking for their first win in league action face each other Saturday when the Hoosiers visit the Fighting Illini.

Indiana may be in the midst of a four-game losing streak, but the first three setbacks during that stretch came by a combined 18 points - including a seven-point defeat against No. 22 Michigan and an eight-point loss at No. 16 Michigan State. The Hoosiers were at it again for a while last weekend, trailing third-ranked Wisconsin by seven early in the fourth quarter before the Badgers rolled off 21 unanswered points over the final 10:15 to pull away 45-17. Illinois, which has started a FBS-high and school-record 16 true freshmen this season, has failed to score more than 17 points in all but one conference game thus far and has dropped nine straight Big Ten battles dating back to last season. The Illini suffered their seventh straight loss overall this season in a 29-10 decision at Purdue last weekend - their sixth double-digit defeat over that span.

TV: Noon ET, Big Ten Network. LINE: Indiana -9.

ABOUT INDIANA (3-6, 0-6 Big Ten): Richard Lagow, who started the first four games of the season, got the start last week after freshman Peyton Ramsey (leg) was injured two games ago and is expected to keep the job versus Illinois after throwing for 226 yards and two touchdowns versus the Badgers. Simmie Cobbs Jr. is tied for first in the conference with 59 receptions and tied for seventh with six touchdown catches, while fellow junior wideout Luke Timian ranks third in the Big Ten with 54 receptions. Safety Chase Dutra recorded 10 or more stops for the third time in four weeks with a career-high 15 against Wisconsin, while Allen applauded the effort of linebackers Tegray Scales (12 tackles) and Chris Covington (nine) - each of whom played all 80 defensive snaps.

ABOUT ILLINOIS (2-7, 0-6): Cam Thomas saw his first extended action under center in place of Jeff George Jr. last week, finishing 10-of-20 for 159 yards while rushing 14 times for 30 yards en route to becoming only the fourth Illinois true freshman to start a game at quarterback in program history. Ricky Smalling extended his streak of hauling in at least one 20-yard reception to five straight games and leads the team with 415 yards receiving; his 16.6 yards per catch is the second-best mark among FBS true freshmen. With leading rusher Mike Epstein (foot) likely done for the season and second-leading rusher Ra'Von Bonner (concussion) missing the last two games, Kendrick Foster has amassed 139 yards and a touchdown on 32 carries against Wisconsin and Purdue.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Indiana is the only FBS program that has faced three top-five opponents and one of two teams to face five ranked foes this season.

2. The Illini are tied for first in the country with 14 forced fumbles and rank eighth in FBS with three blocked kicks.

3. Cobbs (T-13th) and Timian (26th) are one of four sets of teammates to rank inside the top 30 in receptions nationally.

While the top spot in the SEC East is already accounted for, South Carolina still has some bowl jockeying to do as it hosts conference rival Florida on Saturday afternoon. The Gamecocks were worthy opponents in last week's 24-10 loss to No. 1 Georgia and have two winnable games ahead before wrapping up their regular-season schedule against powerhouse Clemson.

Will Muschamp's crew couldn't do much on offense against the vaunted Bulldogs - not many teams have - but the South Carolina defense was impressive in its own right, limiting Georgia to its second-lowest point total of the season. The Bulldogs needed 53 carries to amass 242 yards on the ground, and relied on a pair of TD passes from Jake Fromm to remain unbeaten on the season. "We made Jake Fromm play quarterback," South Carolina coach Will Muschamp said afterward. "And I compliment Jake: He played extremely well." That's something the Gators can't say; they've dropped four straight and have surrendered a whopping 88 points in back-to-back losses to Georgia and Missouri.

TV: Noon ET, CBS. LINE: South Carolina -7

ABOUT FLORIDA (3-5, 3-4 SEC): Things couldn't get much worse in Gainesville, with interim head coach Randy Shannon watching the Gators come out flat one week after Jim McElwain was fired following the 42-7 loss to the Bulldogs. If that weren't enough, linebacker David Reese lambasted his team following the Tigers defeat, telling reporters: "It's sometimes disappointing when everybody doesn't want to come together and just play for each other. That's sad to see. We've still got a lot to play for. Me personally and our defense, we want to play for those guys. We can't have appearances like we just had. That's unacceptable." Left guard Brett Heggie will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a leg injury in the loss to Missouri.

ABOUT SOUTH CAROLINA (6-3, 4-3): It won't help their 2017 bowl prospects, but wide receiver Deebo Samuel announced last weekend he'll be returning to the Gamecocks next season after suffering a setback in his recovery from a fractured fibula that limited him to three games this season. Tight end Hayden Hurst was named a semifinalist for the Burlsworth Trophy, given to the most outstanding player who began his collegiate career as a walk-on; he has 30 catches for 421 yards and two touchdowns and posted a 7-for-93 line in the loss to the Bulldogs. Quarterback Jake Bentley will look to get back on track after throwing just one touchdown pass against three interceptions over his last three games.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Bentley ranks fourth in the SEC in passing yards (1,986).

2. The Gamecocks have allowed foes to convert 45.5 percent of their third-down chances, 115th among FBS teams.

3. Shannon has tabbed QB Malik Zaire to make his second consecutive start.

LSU has played much better football since the upset loss to Troy and looks to finish the regular season with three straight victories, starting with an SEC matchup against visiting Arkansas on Saturday in the Battle for the Golden Boot. The 25th-ranked Tigers followed up the 24-21 loss to Troy with three consecutive wins and gave No. 1 Alabama all it could handle before succumbing in a 14-point loss last week.

“I’m excited about this football team,” LSU coach Ed Orgeron told reporters. “I’m excited to be in the locker room before the game, during the game and after the game. Love their attitude, love the way they held their head up high.” The Tigers have outgained their opponents in eight of nine games, including last week when they accumulated 306 yards against Alabama, and will need another strong performance against a desperate Arkansas team. The Razorbacks have won two straight by one point, including a 39-38 non-conference victory over Coastal Carolina last week, and need at least two victories in the final three contests to become bowl eligible. Arkansas is in the middle of pack offensively in the SEC, but has given up at least 37 points in all five league games and averaged 43.2 against in the last five contests overall.

TV: Noon ET, ESPN. LINE: LSU -16.5

ABOUT ARKANSAS (4-5, 1-4 SEC): Senior quarterback Austin Allen, who threw for 3,430 yards last season, could return after missing the last four games with a shoulder injury but freshman Cole Kelley has played admirably (59.6 percent completion percentage, eight TDs, three interceptions). Junior wide receiver Jonathan Nance is the top target no matter who is under center with 33 catches, 497 yards and five TD receptions. The Razorbacks boast a balanced rushing attack, led by sophomore Devwah Whaley (428 yards, four TDs) and senior David Williams (425, five).

ABOUT LSU (6-3, 3-2): Senior Danny Etling completed 12-of-26 passes for 137 yards and an interception after connecting on 58.5 percent of his tosses with four TDs and no picks during the team’s three-game winning streak. Junior Derrius Guice boasts 782 yards and six TDs on the ground to move into sixth on the school’s all-time list (2,605) while senior Darrel Williams is next with 559 yards and six scores. Senior receiver D.J. Chark is Etling’s top option through the air with 25 receptions for 588 yards for the Tigers, who are averaging 25.4 points to rank 10th in the league.

EXTRA POINTS

1. LSU LB Arden Key is tied with Gabe Northern for third in school history with 21 sacks and two away from second.

2. The Razorbacks are 14th and last in the SEC in sacks (12) and in sacks allowed (28).

3. The Tigers have won 12 of the 20 Battles for the Golden Boot and are 38-22-2 all-time versus Arkansas.

Preview: Nebraska at Minnesota
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

At certain points this season Nebraska and Minnesota had reason to believe they would be able to at least qualify for a bowl game. With both programs facing an uphill battle the rest of the way to achieve that goal, the Cornhuskers and Golden Gophers square off in Minneapolis on Saturday in what amounts to be a postseason elimination game.

Nebraska blew a golden opportunity to put itself within one game of bowl eligibility last weekend, failing to hold a fourth-quarter lead or finish off a potential go-ahead scoring drive late in regulation en route to a 27-24 overtime loss to Northwestern. Instead, the Cornhuskers, who need to win one of their final two games - No. 13 Penn State and Iowa - in addition to this contest to reach six victories, face the strong possibility of their second losing season in three years under coach Mike Riley. Minnesota started the season with three straight wins under new coach P.J. Fleck, but it has since dropped five of six, with only a home win versus West division cellar-dweller Illinois over that stretch. The Gophers, who are coming off their worst showing of the season surrendering a season-high 371 rushing yards in a 33-10 defeat at Michigan last weekend, end their season with matchups against Northwestern and third-ranked Wisconsin.

TV: Noon ET, Fox Sports 1. LINE: Minnesota -2.5.

ABOUT NEBRASKA (4-5, 3-3 Big Ten): Junior wideout Stanley Morgan Jr. (team-high marks of 43 catches, 690 receiving yards and seven touchdowns) tallied four receptions last weekend to push his career total to 101, becoming only the 10th player in school history to top 100; his 1,447 career receiving yards already ranks 10th on the Cornhuskers' all-time list. After 19 carries for 32 yards in his previous two outings, Devine Ozigbo returned to a workhorse role against Northwestern with 23 attempts for 72 yards, allowing him to become the 65th Cornhusker to run for at least 1,000 yards in his career. Senior linebacker Marcus Newby tied a career high with 10 tackles and ran an interception back 48 yards for a touchdown - the longest such score for a Nebraska player since 2009.

ABOUT MINNESOTA (4-5, 1-5): Sophomore Tyler Johnson is far and away the Gophers' top receiver, as his 32 receptions are 19 more than any other Minnesota player, while his 620 receiving yards and seven receiving touchdowns account for 46.8 and 77.8 percent of the team's totals in those respective categories. Sophomore quarterback Demry Croft relieved an ineffective Conor Rhoda four games ago and went 11-of-20 from 163 yards and three TDs over the final two-plus quarters against Michigan State, but he is a combined 19-of-55 for 260 yards and one score in three games since. Linebacker Thomas Barber, who leads Minnesota with 82 tackles and nine tackles for loss, paces the Big Ten and ranks sixth in FBS with 57 solo stops.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Nebraska WR/KR JD Spielman needs 105 more all-purpose yards to break Ahman Green's school freshman record of 1,259 set back in 1995.

2. Minnesota ranks among the top three teams in FBS in fewest penalty yards (277, third), fewest penalties per game (3.67, tied for first) and fewest penalties (33, second).

3. At his current pace of 262.8 passing yards, Cornhuskers QB Tanner Lee will finish with 3,153 - a total that would place him third on the school's all-time single-season list.

Nov 8, 2017

Central Florida's march toward a potential perfect season continues on Saturday when the 14th-ranked Knights host Connecticut in an American Athletic Conference contest. Giving the way the season has gone for both teams, this one figures to be no contest for UCF.

Conference games this season have been a struggle for UConn, back under the guidance of head coach Randy Edsall, with four losses by a combined score of 197-117. Overall, the Huskies have allowed an average of 39.2 points in six AAC games this season. UCF owns the highest scoring offense in FBS and is averaging 43.2 points per game in five conference games. The Knights have outscored conference opponents 216-102 and have not allowed more than 24 points in an AAC game this season.

TV: Noon ET, ESPNU. LINE: UCF -38.5

ABOUT CONNECTICUT (3-6, 2-4 AAC): The Huskies are getting plenty of contributions from a class of freshman that has many already looking forward to the future of the program. Running backs Nate Hopkins (redshirt) and Kevin Mensah have combined for 10 touchdowns and 670 yards on the ground while receivers Quayvon Skanes, Keyion Dixon and Mason Donaldson have a combined 64 receptions and 703 yards. Including the defense, the Huskies have five different freshmen who have scored at least one touchdown this season.

ABOUT CENTRAL FLORIDA (8-0, 5-0): The UCF offense, ranked fifth in the nation at 540.4 yards per game, seemingly sets a new standard every week. In last week's victory at SMU, the Knights pulled off a feat not done since the 2013 Fiesta Bowl victory against Baylor as UCF had a 300-yard passer (McKenzie Milton), 100-yard rusher (Adrian Killins, Jr.) and 100-yard receiver (Tre'Quan Smith). The victory against SMU also set a new season-high in total offense for UCF with 615, the second time this season the Knights piled up more than 600 yards and the fourth time they surpassed 500 yards in a game.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Milton is the sixth quarterback in school history to register four or more 300-yard passing games in a season. Only three have five or more - Daunte Culpepper (twice), Ryan Schneider and Blake Bortles.

2. Connecticut is 3-25 all-time against ranked teams at the time of the meeting with the only three victories coming in 2015 versus Houston, 2002 at Louisville and 2007 against South Florida.

3. A UCF win would match the school record for consecutive victories at nine, set in 2013 when the Knights finished a 12-1 season with a victory against Baylor in the Fiesta Bowl.

Texas Tech and Baylor will likely light up the scoreboard Saturday afternoon at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. The Texas Farm Bureau Shootout has lived up to its name as Texas Tech and Baylor are averaging a combined 95.1 points in the neutral-site game in the past seven seasons.

The Red Raiders can help continue to that streak, ranked fifth nationally in passing offense and 17th in scoring despite a four-game losing streak. Nic Shimonek joins three other Big 12 quarterbacks in the nation's top five for passing yards while Keke Coutee has five touchdown receptions of 40 yards or more. The Bears, who snapped an eight-game losing streak by beating Kansas last week, enter the weekend with the 121st ranked defense, allowing 479.4 yards. Freshman quarterback Charlie Brewer will likely start his second game, but coach Matt Rhule is monitoring sophomore Zach Smith's recovery from a shoulder injury.

TV: Noon ET, Fox Sports Network. LINE: Texas Tech -7

ABOUT TEXAS TECH (4-5, 1-5 Big 12): Shimonek (3,068 yards, 26 touchdowns, seven interceptions) has thrown four touchdowns in back-to-back games after being held without a scoring pass in the loss to Iowa State. Coutee (69 catches, 1,026 yards, nine touchdowns) and Dylan Cantrell have combined for 15 touchdown catches. Justin Stockton leads the Red Raiders with 525 rushing yards, but Tre King (504 yards, three touchdowns) has headlined with 184 rushing yards in the past two weeks while Desmond Nisby has a team-high seven rushing touchdowns.

ABOUT BAYLOR (1-8, 1-5): Brewer (646 yards, five touchdowns, one interception) threw for 315 yards and three scores against Kansas after Smith (1,458 yards, eight touchdowns, seven interceptions) started the previous six games. Denzel Mims, who is expected to play Saturday after being helped off the field in the third quarter of the Kansas win, leads Baylor with 43 catches for 849 yards and seven touchdowns. Senior Taylor Young (51 tackles, three sacks) recorded 10 tackles and three tackles for loss last week after moving from outside linebacker to middle linebacker.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Texas Tech has missed at least one kick in each of its losses during its four-game skid, a total of five field goals and two extra points by four different kickers.

2. Mims has four 100-yard performances in his past six games and has four touchdowns catches of 40 or more yards.

Preview: Duke at Army
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Duke has had some success after a bye week in the last six seasons and hopes the trend continues when it travels to West Point, N.Y. to take on red-hot Army on Saturday afternoon. The Blue Devils have suffered five straight losses after opening the campaign with four wins in a row, but is 5-1 after its last six bye weeks as it takes on Army’s triple-option offense that leads the nation in rushing.

“This team is talented,” Duke’s sophomore quarterback Daniel Jones, who threw for only 82 yards in the 24-3 loss to Virginia Tech on Oct. 28 before the break, told reporters. “We have a lot of winners in our locker room and people who are capable of getting this season back where it needs to go.” The Blue Devils’ defense, which is led by sophomore linebacker Joe Giles-Harris (86 tackles), will have to contend with a ground attack that rushed for at least 300 yards in seven of nine games and averages 365.4. The Black Knights have won five games in a row overall for the first time since 1996, but dropped a 13-6 decision at Duke last season with just 165 yards on the ground after losing to the Blue Devils 44-3 in 2015. “They’ve made it very difficult for us to move the ball the past couple years,” Army coach Jeff Monken told reporters. “It is going to take a great effort for us to win. Hopefully our guys are up for it.”

ABOUT DUKE (4-5): The Blue Devils have lost three of the games by seven points, but the rushing attack has averaged just 96 yards the past three contests and Jones owns five interceptions and three touchdown passes during the losing streak. Senior running back Shaun Wilson leads the ground attack with 586 yards and five scores while the top target for Jones is junior T.J. Rahming (47 catches, 579 yards). Giles-Harris is tied for 16th in the nation with 9.6 tackles per game and safety Jeremy McDuffie has picked off three passes for the Blue Devils, who allow 142.1 yards on the ground.

ABOUT ARMY (7-2): The rushing attack gets most of the headlines for the Black Knights, but the defense came up big last week to end Air Force’s 306-game scoring streak with a 21-0 road victory and has averaged 18.9 points against. Senior linebacker Alex Aukerman boasts six of the team’s 18 sacks and junior linebacker James Nachtigal has 73 tackles to lead Army, which is going to back-to-back bowls for the first time since 1984-85. Senior quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw had 265 yards rushing last week against Air Force to push his season total to 1,132 with eight touchdowns.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Blue Devils are 19-2 in their last 21 regular-season, non-conference games.

2. The Black Knights have not completed a pass in four games this season and went 3-1 in those outings.

3. Duke is 13-10-1 against Army, but has won nine of the last 11 meetings.

Preview: Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech

Nov 8, 2017

No. 17 Virginia Tech looks for a much better experience on the road this week at Georgia Tech, considering last week’s visit to Miami resulted in a 28-10 defeat on the field and a travel nightmare after the game that delayed the Hokies’ arrival back home until Sunday afternoon. The scenario is less than ideal considering Georgia Tech’s triple-option offense that is third in the nation in rushing, but coach Justin Fuente said he is relying on his veterans to lead this week.

“As a head coach, you’ve got to weigh the good with the bad,” Fuente told reporters Monday after the Hokies – who were the nation’s No. 2 scoring defense entering last weekend – were gashed for 429 yards. “That’s what we have do all the time every single week, trying to figure out the best way to get your team knowing what to do and playing good.” Georgia Tech has not played well of late, dropping three of its past four, and must win two of its final three games in order to become bowl eligible. “That’s life,” Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson told reporters Tuesday. “If you don’t learn to deal with adversity, you’re not going to make it very far.” The Yellow Jackets blew a 15-point second-half lead in last week’s 40-36 loss at Virginia, rallying to take the lead with 3:10 remaining before giving up a 64-yard touchdown drive in just five plays.

TV: 12:20 p.m. ET, ACC Network. LINE: Virginia Tech -3

ABOUT VIRGINIA TECH (7-2, 3-2 ACC): Freshman quarterback Josh Jackson leads all FBS freshmen with 2,229 passing yards and 17 touchdowns – both school records for a freshman. The Hokies are tied for third in the ACC in scoring at 32.6 points per game and, despite last week’s struggles, continue leading the conference in points allowed per contest (13.3). Linebacker Andrew Motuapuaka has six career fumble recoveries and five career interceptions, leading a defense allowing just 300.6 yards per game.

ABOUT GEORGIA TECH (4-4, 3-3): Quarterback TaQuon Marshall completed just six passes last week but threw for 179 yards and added 143 rushing yards, and his 870 yards rushing ranks fourth all time among quarterbacks in school history in a single season. The Yellow Jackets are averaging 331.9 yards rushing per contest, but have surrendered 28.3 points per game in their past four contests. Linebacker Bruce Jordan-Swilling recorded a career-high 11 tackles with a forced fumble, fumble recovery, interception and defensive touchdown last week.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The road team has won the past four games in the series.

2. Virginia Tech’s two losses have come against No. 6 Miami and No. 4 Clemson, two schools that are a combined 16-1 this season.

3. Three of Georgia Tech’s four losses have come by a combined total of six points.

Nov 8, 2017

Following a tough two-game swing through Florida, Syracuse returns home Saturday to take on Wake Forest in a key contest for both teams' postseason hopes. The Orange need two wins to become bowl-eligible, while the Demon Deacons are one victory away.

Syracuse lost at Miami (Fla.) and Florida State in its last two games, dropping the two competitive contests by a combined 11 points. Quarterback Eric Dungey banged up his foot and ankle against the Seminoles but should be ready to play against Wake Forest. "He's going to have to take it easy," Orange coach Dino Babers said regarding Dungey's practicing this week. "He's not going to be able to do all the work. He's got a lot of game experience. We'll just practice the other guys. He'll be ready to go. ... Him healthy is our best opportunity to win." The Demon Deacons battled at Notre Dame last week before falling 48-37 for their fourth loss in five games.

TV: 3 p.m. ET, RSN. LINE: Pick'em

ABOUT WAKE FOREST (5-4, 2-3 ACC): The Demon Deacons rank in the top 50 nationally in points for and points against, but they have only won one game this season in which they scored fewer than 34 points or given up more than 19 points. John Wolford, a four-year starter at quarterback, has a crisp 17-to-3 touchdown-to-interception ratio and has only been sacked nine times after going down 33 times last season. Alex Bachman, who entered last week's game with four catches on the season, caught eight balls for 116 yards and a score versus the Fighting Irish.

ABOUT SYRACUSE (4-5, 2-3): The Orange got three touchdowns from Dungey (two passing, one rushing), but it wasn't enough to defeat the Seminoles - the second straight tight loss for Syracuse since upsetting No. 2 Clemson. Senior wideout Steve Ishmael has 986 receiving yards - fifth in the nation - and posted 12 catches for a career-high 143 yards against Florida State. Dontae Strickland followed up a 105-yard rushing effort at Miami - his season high - with a 20-yard effort against Florida State, his second-lowest rushing total of the year.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson used to coach at Bowling Green. After he left, the school hired Babers to replace him.

2. Wake Forest S Jessie Bates (knee) missed the Notre Dame game and is questionable to face Syracuse.

3. Wolford ran for two touchdowns in last season's 28-9 victory against the Orange.

Nov 8, 2017

Wisconsin's easy path to an undefeated regular season and a spot in the Big Ten Championship Game became a lot more interesting when No. 20 Iowa stepped up last week and declared itself a contender. The eighth-ranked Badgers will try to avoid an upset and keep their path clear when they host the surging Hawkeyes on Saturday.

Iowa scored the biggest upset of the Big Ten slate thus far when it ripped Ohio State 55-24 last week, recording a season high in points after totaling 27 points in its previous two games. "If we could draw up the way we wanted it to look, that pretty much was it," Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz told hawkeyesports.com. "The guys did a good job, there was good run-pass balance. I think we were a yard apart on run total (243) and pass total (244). More importantly, we were able to run and pass efficiently and work together -- I was happy to see that. We were hoping we would see that execution over the last four or five weeks and we finally broke through." That offense will try to maintain that balance against a Wisconsin squad that enters the weekend tied for fourth in FBS in scoring defense, allowing an average of 13.3 points. The undefeated Badgers are the only Big Ten team without at least two losses and will lock up the Big Ten West with a win on Saturday, but they still haven't impressed the College Football Playoff committee enough to jump into the top four in the rankings.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC, LINE: Wisconsin -12.5

ABOUT IOWA (6-3, 3-3 Big Ten): The Hawkeyes' offense was set up last week by its defense, led by defensive back Josh Jackson. The junior tied a school record with three interceptions and was named the Big Ten Co-Defensive Player of the Week on Monday. "He knocked it out of the park," Ferentz told hawkeyesports.com of Jackson. "You can see the maturation of guys sometimes, and Josh has taken a step with every year he has been here. He played good football for us the last two years, now he is a starter and has played well all season. It's almost impossible to have three interceptions in one game and all three of them were spectacular plays."

ABOUT WISCONSIN (9-0, 6-0): The Badgers are led by freshman running back Jonathan Taylor, who bounced back from an ankle injury suffered in a 24-10 win at Illinois on Oct. 28 by barreling for 183 yards on 29 carries in last week's 45-17 victory at Indiana. Taylor will be leaned on even more this week after it was announced that wide receiver Quintez Cephus, who leads the team with 501 yards and six TD receptions, will sit out Saturday's contest after suffering a right leg injury against Illinois. Senior tight end Troy Fumagalli is second on the team with 401 receiving yards and three TD catches but has not seen the end zone since Week 3 at BYU.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Wisconsin LB Chris Orr (left leg) is out for Saturday while S D'Cota Dixon (right leg) is questionable.

2. Iowa S Brandon Snyder is out for the rest of the season after suffering his second ACL tear of 2017.

3. The Badgers took four of the last five meetings, including a 17-9 win at the Hawkeyes last season.

Louisville dropped its last contest 42-32 at Wake Forest on Oct. 28 despite another great game by quarterback Lamar Jackson, who had 161 yards rushing, 330 yards passing and accounted for four touchdowns (three rushing). With only three games left, the Cardinals still need another win to become bowl-eligible for the eighth straight season. Conversely, the Cavaliers became bowl-eligible for the first time since 2011 after Kurt Benkert threw a 27-yard scoring pass to Andre Levrone with 1:22 remaining to knock off Georgia Tech 40-36 last weekend. Benkert (59.6 completion percentage, 20 TDs, six interceptions, 2,278 passing yards) threw for 260 yards and three touchdowns against the Yellow Jackets to become the first Cavalier in program history to throw for at least 20 passing TDs in multiple seasons, and he needs eight more scoring throws to match the school record of 28 set by Matt Schaub in 2002.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPNU. LINE: Louisville -11.5.

ABOUT VIRGINIA (6-3, 3-2 ACC): H-Back Olamide Zaccheaus has 66 catches through nine games - tied for fifth on the school’s all-time single season list - for 683 yards and four touchdowns. Jordan Ellis leads the team in rushing with 708 yards and five scores, while Doni Dowling is a threat through the air with 36 catches for 506 yards and five touchdowns. The leaders for a defense that surrenders just over 25 points a contest are linebacker Micah Kiser, who was named one of 20 semifinalists for the inaugural Jason Witten Collegiate Man of the Year award and safety Quin Blanding, who is the school’s all-time leader in tackles with 445.

ABOUT LOUISVILLE (5-4, 2-4): Jackson, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, continued piling up accolades with his performance against the Demon Deacons; he became the fourth player in school history to rush for over 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons, extended his school records for career rushing yards (3,560) and touchdown runs (46) and became only the fourth player in NCAA history to pass for over 8,000 yards and rush for 3,000 yards in a career. Jackson leads nation in total offense at 426.3 yards per game, leads the ACC in passing yards per game (312), rushing yards per game (114.3), rushing touchdowns (14), points responsible for (196) and ranks second in total points (84). However, he needs help from a defense that surrendered 461 yards passing against Wake Forest and has yielded 236 points in six ACC games - nearly 40 per contest.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Louisville leads the all-time series, 3-2. The Cardinals also lead the series 2-1 since joining the ACC in 2014.

2. Kiser is first in the ACC and sixth in the nation with 10.8 tackles per game, while Blanding needs 22 tackles to pass North Carolina's Dexter Reid (2000-03) for the most career tackles in ACC history by a defensive back.

3. Louisville is one of four offenses in the country averaging 300 yards passing and 200 yards rushing this season.

Preview: West Virginia at Kansas State
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

After holding off Iowa State for a 20-16 victory last Saturday, West Virginia suddenly finds itself back in the Big 12 championship conversation. The Mountaineers, who end conference play with what could be a potential first-place showdown with Oklahoma in Norman, must take care of business before that, however ,starting with Saturday afternoon's contest at Kansas State.

The Sooners and TCU are tied for first place in the Big 12 with 5-1 records and play Saturday night in Norman. West Virginia, which is 4-2 and hosts Texas next week, could still finish in a tie for first if it wins out and Oklahoma defeats the Horned Frogs. Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen, who said the Big 12 is "as competitive as it's ever been," says his team must focus on winning this week's game at Kansas State -- where it's lost in both of its previous visits -- and not on potential title scenarios. "There isn't a whole lot of Big 12 championship talk around here," Holgorsen said. "It's everybody's goal going into the season. But it's important to get ready to play the next game. Everybody in the Big 12 knows every game is important."

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Kansas State -2.5

ABOUT WEST VIRGINIA (6-3, 4-2 Big 12): In a conference that features 2016 Heisman finalist Baker Mayfield of Oklahoma and prolific Mason Rudolph of Oklahoma State, Mountaineer quarterback Will Grier gets overlooked a bit on the national level. Still, the Florida transfer is putting up some eye-popping numbers, completing 217-of-334 passes for 3,068 yards, 30 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Wide receiver David Sills V has 51 receptions for 793 yards and leads the nation with 16 touchdown receptions while senior linebacker Al-Rasheed Benton ranks fifth in the Big 12 in tackles (77) , including 12.0 for loss, and anchors a Mountaineers defense that held Iowa State to just 101 rushing yards last week.

ABOUT KANSAS STATE (5-4, 3-3): The Wildcats come in off a 42-35 overtime win at Texas Tech that was highlighted by the play of third-string redshirt freshman quarterback Skylar Thompson who came off the bench to complete 5-of-8 passes for 96 yards, score on a one-yard run at the end of regulation to force OT, and completed an 8-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Byron Pringle to win it. Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said he would wait until later in the week to name his starting quarterback which could be starter Jesse Ertz, who has missed four games with a knee injury and is listed as questionable. Cornerback D.J. Reed, who has eight pass breakups and three interceptions, leads a secondary that has been burned for over 400 yards passing for three straight weeks.

EXTRA POINTS

1. West Virginia sophomore WR Marcus Simms leads the Big 12 and ranks 17th nationally in all-purpose yards with an average of 137.8 yards per game.

2. Kansas State PK Matthew McCrane has connected on 17-of-21 field goals which leads the Big 12 and ranks fourth nationally.

3. West Virginia is 11-of-15 on fourth down conversions (73.3 percent) which leads the Big 12 and is tied for eighth nationally.

Preview: Florida State at Clemson
Gracenote
Nov 9, 2017

The Clemson-Florida State matchup has produced the ACC champion each of the last six years, a streak the Seminoles would love to end. Struggling Florida State aims to play spoiler to the fourth-ranked Tigers’ hopes of repeating as national champions as it takes to the road for Saturday's contest.



Clemson already is in playoff mode, as it is fourth in this week’s College Football Playoff rankings and need to close out the regular season with triumphs over Florida State and South Carolina and win the ACC championship to make its way back to the national semifinals. "This is where you hope to be," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney told reporters. "This is what it's all about. You work all season to put yourself in position to have a chance to achieve your goals. The rest of our season hinges on these four quarters. This is championship football for us." The Tigers haven’t exactly been dominant of late – following a 27-24 loss at Syracuse on Oct. 13, they shut down Georgia Tech’s ground game in a 24-10 victory and rallied for a 38-31 win at N.C. State last week. The Seminoles long ago were knocked out of ACC championship contention, and their season hit rock bottom in a 35-3 loss at Boston College on Oct. 27.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Clemson -16


ABOUT FLORIDA STATE (3-5, 3-4 ACC): The Seminoles’ offense took a major hit when quarterback Deondre Francois suffered a season-ending knee injury in the season-opening loss to Alabama. Freshman James Blackman took over under center and has averaged 160.6 passing yards with eight touchdowns and seven interceptions, while freshman running back Cam Akers has been effective, averaging 5.5 yards per carry and rushing for 199 yards in last week’s win over Syracuse. The Seminoles’ defense is good enough to keep them in most games, and defensive end Josh Sweat (10.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks) could have a big impact if he can pressure Clemson quarterback Kelly Bryant.

ABOUT CLEMSON (8-1, 6-1): The Tigers again possess one of the nation’s top defenses, ranking eighth in scoring defense and 13th in total defense, and the unit doesn’t have any glaring weaknesses. The offense hinges on Bryant, who has passed for 1,773 yards and seven touchdowns and leads the team in rushing yards (548) and rushing touchdowns (nine), but running backs Tavien Feaster (529 yards) and Travis Etienne (520) have big-play potential. Feaster broke an 89-yard touchdown run last week – tied for the third-longest in program history – and Etienne ran for an 81-yard score earlier this season against Boston College.


EXTRA POINTS

1. Clemson has won 40 straight games when rushing for at least 200 yards and 52 in a row when allowing fewer than 23 points.

2. Akers (695) ranks third on Florida State’s single-season rushing list for true freshmen, trailing Dalvin Cook (1,008) and Greg Allen (888).

3. Clemson WR Deon Cain has caught a pass in 32 consecutive games, the 10th-longest active streak in the nation and six shy of Artavis Scott’s program record.

Preview: SMU at Navy
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Apparently, eight is enough to shut down Navy's high-powered rushing attack and in a copycat sports world, expect SMU to emulate recent efforts when the Mustangs visit the Midshipmen on Saturday in an American Athletic Conference contest. Navy fell 34-26 at Temple on Nov. 2 for its third straight loss after a 5-0 start, facing eight-man fronts in all three setbacks, and puts its seven-game winning streak versus SMU on the line.

The Midshipmen are second nationally with 346.1 rushing yards per game, but averaged 232.7 during a losing streak that left starting quarterback Zach Abey banged up. Abey, who has run for a team-high 1,202 yards - or 43.4 percent of Navy's rushing output - sustained a concussion in a 31-21 loss to No. 12 Central Florida on Oct. 21 before injuring his non-throwing shoulder versus Temple. “It comes down to taking what the defense gives you,'' Midshipmen offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Ivin Jasper told the Capital Gazette. "We have to manufacture ways to get the ball on the perimeter. That has worked for us at times this season. So you take what they give you, but also find other ways to get the ball to your playmakers. That falls back on me.” The Mustangs are coming off a 31-24 loss versus UCF and face a must-win situation if they are to remain in AAC West Division title contention.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS Sports Network. LINE: Navy -4.5

ABOUT SMU (6-3, 3-2 AAC): Sophomore quarterback Ben Hicks (20 touchdown passes, six interceptions) guides an offense that is 12th nationally at 39.6 points per game. Sophomore running backs Ke'Mon Freeman (nine TDs) and Xavier Jones (six TDs, team-high 700 rushing yards) lead the ground attack, while junior wide receivers Trey Quinn (90 receptions, seven TDs) and Courtland Sutton (48, nine) are Hicks' favorite targets. Sophomore safety Mikial Onu boasts a team-high 74 tackles (55 solo) and has two of the Mustangs' 10 interceptions.

ABOUT NAVY (5-3, 3-3): The Midshipmen rank first nationally in average yards per completion at 25.4, but are only 35-for-82 passing this season. Abey, who did not practice earlier in the week, has also accounted for 13 of Navy's 25 rushing touchdowns this season with sophomore Malcolm Perry (10.3 yards per attempt on 44 carries, three TDs) another threat. Navy has 15 turnovers this season - nine during its losing streak - after giving it away only 16 times in 14 games last season.

EXTRA POINTS

1. SMU has turned the ball over only seven times, tied for fifth-fewest nationally, and is one of five teams with one or fewer fumbles (one).

2. The Midshipmen have scored only 23 first-half points during their slide.

3. Navy leads the series 11-7. The Midshipmen outscored SMU 130-45 in the past two meetings, including a 75-31 victory last season when it totaled 600 yards - 496 on the ground.

PREDICTION: SMU 38, Navy 31

The “Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry” takes on an added level of national importance Saturday when No. 2 Georgia visits No. 10 Auburn in a SEC matchup that will have wide-ranging College Football Playoff implications. The Bulldogs, who are atop the playoff rankings this week and clinched a berth in the SEC title game with last week’s 24-10 victory over South Carolina, clearly have the most to lose, but the play of freshman quarterback Jake Fromm continues to impress.

Fromm completed 16-of-22 passes for 196 yards and two touchdowns last week, improving to 8-0 as a starter while directing a Georgia offense averaging 39.3 points per game in league competition. “I think playing in that Notre Dame environment was really good for him because that was one of the tougher environments,” Georgia coach Kirby Smart told reporters Monday, referencing a victory in Fromm’s first career start against the fifth-ranked Fighting Irish. The Tigers have losses to No. 4 Clemson and No. 25 LSU, but with victories against Georgia and top-ranked Alabama – both at home – still could reach the SEC championship game. “We are not looking any farther ahead than Saturday,” Tigers coach Gus Malzahn told reporters Tuesday, three days after scoring 42 points in a road victory over Texas A&M. “It’s here. There is a lot on the line for it.”

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Georgia -2 ½

ABOUT GEORGIA (9-0, 6-0 SEC): Fromm has impressed but the Bulldogs offense is fueled by their rushing attack, leading the SEC and ranking eighth in the nation in averaging 279.3 yards per game. Nick Chubb is fifth in the SEC in all-time rushing yards and gained 102 last week, while Sony Michel has 710 yards on the ground and nine touchdowns this season. Georgia’s defense is third nationally in points allowed per game (11.7) and has surrendered just 62 points in six conference contests.

ABOUT AUBURN (7-2, 5-1): The Tigers have set a school record by scoring 40 points or more in its five conference victories, and on the season is one of five FBS teams averaging more than 220 yards rushing and 200 yards passing. Quarterback Jarrett Stidham, a transfer from Baylor who did not play last season, leads the SEC in completion percentage (66.8 percent). Auburn is third in the SEC and ninth nationally in points allowed per game (16.9).

EXTRA POINTS

1. Chubb needs 13 yards rushing to pass Auburn legend Bo Jackson for fourth on the SEC’s all-time career list, and is 300 yards from moving into second.

2. Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson ranks third nationally with 15 rushing touchdowns, and leads the FBS in averaging 13.7 points per game.

3. Georgia has won seven of the past 10 games at Auburn and leads the series – which dates back to 1892 – 57-55-8.

No. 22 Michigan takes its ground-and-pound attack on the road against Maryland on Saturday. The Wolverines racked up 371 rushing yards en route to a comfortable 33-10 win against Minnesota to take pressure off freshman quarterback Brandon Peters, who was making his first collegiate start, and they hope their impressive ground assault, which has accumulated 705 yards over their last two games, is the catalyst for their third straight victory against the Terrapins.

"It's always important to have a good running game," Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters. "It pays big dividends being able to run the football as lots comes off it like play-action passes and bootlegs." Maryland is left to pick up the pieces after its third-string quarterback suffered an injury in the 31-24 setback to Rutgers. The Terrapins had already lost Kasim Hill and Tyrrell Pigrome to season-ending knee injuries before Max Bortenschlager hurt his shoulder against the Scarlet Knights, forcing walk-on Ryan Brand to finish the game, and the former Air Force transfer could become the fourth different quarterback to start this season if Bortenschlager is unable to recover in time. "Nothing definitive yet, he's probably a game-time decision," Maryland head coach DJ Durkin told reporters. "We'll continue to evaluate things every day, nothing we haven't been through before."

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, BTN. LINE: Michigan -15.5

ABOUT MICHIGAN (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten): Karan Higdon rushed for 200 yards and two touchdowns while Chris Evans added 191 on the ground with a pair of scores in the win over Minnesota as the running back duo earned Big Ten Co-Offensive Players of the Week honors. Hybrid linebacker Khaleke Hudson was named the conference's Co-Defensive Player of the Week after setting a Big Ten single-game record with eight tackles for loss to go along with three sacks and a forced fumble against the Gophers. Running back Kareem Walker is likely to miss his second straight game with an ankle injury while offensive lineman Michael Onwenu (leg), running back Ty Isaac (head) and wide receiver Grant Perry (undisclosed) are expected to return after sitting out the win against Minnesota with injuries.

ABOUT MARYLAND (4-5, 2-4 Big Ten): Bortenschlager completed 11-of-20 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown before being knocked out of the game in the fourth quarter against Rutgers. Brand came off the bench to throw for 68 yards while D.J. Moore, who leads the Big Ten in receiving yards (820) and touchdown grabs (eight), hauled in eight passes for 75 yards and needs 19 catches to break the Terrapins record for most receptions in a single season set by Geroy Simon (77) in 1994. Ty Johnson ran for 41 yards and a touchdown to pull within 43 yards of becoming the 13th player in program history to rush for over 2,000 yards in his career, while adding a touchdown reception against the Scarlet Knights.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Michigan is ranked third nationally in total defense (245.3 yards per game).

2. Higdon has scored eight touchdowns in his last four contests.

3. Moore has caught at least one pass in 30 consecutive games to equal the program record set by Torrey Smith.

Nov 8, 2017

The struggling pass defense of Kentucky could be in for another long day when it hits the road to take on Vanderbilt Saturday in the SEC. The Wildcats rank last in the SEC in passing yards allowed per game and must face the Commodores and red-hot quarterback Kyle Shurmur.

The Wildcats surrendered 382 yards and four touchdowns through the air in falling to Mississippi last week, but can avoid their first losing streak of the season by winning their first game in Nashville since 2009. Led by a quartet of juniors, including safety Mike Edwards, the secondary was supposed to be a strength of the Wildcats, but that has not been the case. "Obviously we are not winning enough at this point," coach Mark Stoops, who has seen his team allow 279 yards per game - 120th among the 129 FBS teams nationally - and 17 passing touchdowns, told the media. "We have to make more competitive plays." Shurmur, who ranks second in the SEC with 20 touchdown passes, comes in off a pair of games in which he threw for a combined 553 yards and six touchdowns.

TV: 4 p.m. ET, SEC Network. LINE: Vanderbilt -2.5

ABOUT KENTUCKY (6-3, 3-3 SEC): To keep the ball out of Shurmur's hands, the Wildcats will need to utilize Benny Snell, Jr. early and often against a suspect Vanderbilt rush defense, which has permitted 211.6 yards per game (115th nationally) and 23 touchdowns on the ground. Snell, a sophomore, is nearing some significant milestones, including needing 108 yards to become the first Kentucky running back to post back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons. Last week's game against Ole Miss was the first time this season that Kentucky lost when Snell received 19 or more carries.

ABOUT VANDERBILT (4-5, 0-5 SEC): While Trent Sherfield, Kalija Lipscomb and C.J. Duncan are his favorite targets, Shurmur has spread the ball around, connecting with nine players for touchdowns. Sherfield and Lipscomb, who have combined to catch nine touchdowns, are the deep threats as each are averaging 16.9 yards per catch while Duncan catches mostly short passes. Ralph Webb leads the Commodores in rushing with 543 yards and six scores.

EXTRA POINTS

1. With 103 rushing yards and one touchdown, Snell will join Herschel Walker and Knowshon Moreno of Georgia as the only players in SEC history to have at least 1,000 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns in their freshman and sophomore seasons.

2. Webb, who needs 457 yards to notch his third straight 1,000-yard season, is 44 yards shy of passing Florida's Emmitt Smith for 10th on the SEC all-time rushing list.

3. Thanks to a 20-13 win at home last season, the Wildcats hold a 43-42-4 lead in a series that has seen 36 meetings decided by a touchdown or less.

Preview: USC at Colorado
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

No. 14 USC can put the wraps on the Pac-12 South title Saturday with a win at Colorado. And the Trojans may even have an outside shot at a much larger prize if they can keep winning as they came in a semi-surprising 11th in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, ahead of every other two-loss team aside from No. 10 Auburn.


No two-loss team has ever made the playoff, but USC does have an outside shot at cracking the final four should things break just right over the next four weekends. First, though, the Trojans will have to add to their current two-game win streak which has followed their disappointing 49-14 loss at Notre Dame on Oct. 21, and next up is Saturday’s date in Boulder. “It’s still so early in November, and there are so many games still to be played and decisions to be made,” USC coach Clay Helton told the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday. “(But) it’s nice to be thought of that way.” Colorado captured the South title a year ago but finds itself at bottom of the standings after dropping five of its last seven games.

TV: 4 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: USC -13.5


ABOUT USC (8-2, 6-1 Pac-12): The loss to the Irish marks the only time the Trojans have scored fewer than 26 points in their last 17 games, but in its two most recent contests USC has rolled up 97 points and 1,249 total yards, including 672 on the ground in thumping Arizona State and Arizona. Sam Darnold ranks second in Pac-12 total offense (292.7 yards per game) and third in passing efficiency (147.2 rating) while Ronald Jones is fifth with 120.2 rushing yards per outing after totaling 410 and five touchdowns over the last two contests. Led by linebacker Cameron Smith (8.3 tackles) and defensive lineman Rasheem Green (conference-most seven sacks), the Trojans’ defense has notched 11 sacks and forced four turnovers over the last two weeks.

ABOUT COLORADO (5-5, 2-5): The Buffaloes need either to win Saturday or in their Nov. 25 regular-season finale at Utah to become bowl-eligible for the second straight season. One phase of the game or the other seemingly has broken down each week of late for Colorado, and last Saturday night it was the defense, which surrendered 583 total yards, including 381 rushing, and 27 second-half points in a 41-30 road loss at Arizona State. Quarterback Steven Montez has posted strong numbers (43-of-67 passing, 735 yards of total offense, five TDs) in the two games since being benched in a 28-0 loss at Washington State, while running back Phillip Lindsay ranks second in the Pac-12 in all-purpose yards (156.7) and trails only his USC counterpart Jones (14) with 13 total TDs.


EXTRA POINTS

1. USC is 11-0 all-time vs. Colorado, including a 5-0 record in Boulder. The Trojans prevailed 21-17 last season in L.A.

2. The Trojans have won 15 straight home games, including a 6-0 mark this season, but are 2-2 on the road this year.

3. Lindsay needs 32 rushing yards to move into second place on Colorado’s all-time rushing list and needs 18 yards to become the school’s all-time receiving yards leader among running backs.

Preview: Washington State at Utah
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

With Luke Falk, the Pac-12’s new career passing yardage leader, running the attack, Mike Leach’s Washington State offense garners most of the headlines. But it’s the 20th-ranked Cougars’ underrated defense which has host Utah’s full attention heading into Saturday’s game in Salt Lake City.


Washington State ranks in the top 10 nationally in total defense (297.5 yards allowed per game) and passing defense (161.1 yards) while ranking third in the conference in scoring (22.7 points allowed) and rushing defense (136.4 yards) and first in opponent first downs (14.1). Much of the credit belongs to defensive lineman Hercules Mata’afa, who’s tied for the league lead in sacks (6.5) and ranks seventh nationally in tackles for loss (1.7 per game), and linebacker Frankie Luvu, who’s tied for sixth with 5.5 sacks and also has 9.5 tackles for loss. Last week, in a 24-21 win over visiting Stanford, the Cougars held the Cardinal to 198 yards and nine first downs, including a season-low 69 yards for national rushing leader Bryce Love, who entered the contest averaging 208 yards per outing. “(Washington State is) among the best defenses in the Pac-12 and the country, and that’s really made them a complete football team,” Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said Monday at his weekly news conference. “They’re hard to deal with. … They play exceptionally hard. All 11 hats are running to the football on every snap.”
TV: 5:30 p.m. ET, Pac-12 Network. LINE: Washington State -1

ABOUT WASHINGTON STATE (8-2, 5-2 Pac-12): The Cougars enter the weekend a half-game behind Washington for the Pac-12 North lead, and will have two weeks following Saturday’s game to prepare for the Nov. 25 Apple Cup showdown against the Huskies in Seattle. With 291.3 passing yards per game, Falk ranks second in the conference and 15th nationally, and last week completed 34-of-48 attempts for 337 yards and three touchdowns in the win over Stanford. Falk’s top target is wideout Tavares Martin Jr., who ranks fifth in the Pac-12 in receptions (6.1) and receiving yards (78.3), but the QB does not have a reliable ground game with the Cougars ranking last in the conference at 85.7 yards.
ABOUT UTAH (5-4, 2-4): The Utes snapped out of a four-game skid last Friday with a 48-17 home win over a Josh Rosen-less UCLA squad as quarterback Tyler Huntley rolled up 327 total yards of offense and threw for four scores. Zack Moss hit career highs in rushing attempts (23) and yards (153) while adding a pair of TDs on the ground, but he’ll obviously find the going much tougher this week against the Cougars. The Utah defense has an even 10 fumble recoveries and 10 interceptions and ranks right behind Washington State in scoring (23.1 points surrendered) and total defense (345.8 yards).

EXTRA POINTS

1. The two teams haven’t met since 2014, and the all-time series is tied 7-7, including 2-2 since Utah joined the Pac-12 in 2011.

2. Washington State’s win over Stanford capped an all-time program-best 7-0 home record, but the Cougars are only 1-2 on the road so far, including lopsided losses at California (37-3) and Arizona (58-37) on their last two trips away from home.

3. Give the Utes the advantage on special teams as they lead the nation in field goals made (21), net punting (44.9 yards) and punt-return defense (-4.0 yards).

Preview: Kansas at Texas

Nov 8, 2017

Texas needs a win to keep its bowl hopes alive Saturday, while visiting Kansas is trying to avoid a dubious NCAA record. The Jayhawks have lost 44 consecutive road games to tie Western (Colo.) State's 81-year old major-college record.

The Jayhawks haven't won away from home since beating UTEP on Sept. 12, 2009, and have been outscored 130-30 in three road losses this year. Texas, which is trying to avoid its fourth consecutive losing season, will be without suspended cornerback Holton Hill for the rest of the season. Both teams are dealing with quarterback injuries and have not revealed their starter. Texas' Sam Ehlinger has missed back-to-back games with concussion symptoms and an inner ear problem while Kansas' Carter Stanley is questionable with an undisclosed injury.

TV: 6 p.m. ET, Longhorn Network. LINE: Texas -31

ABOUT KANSAS (1-8, 0-6 Big 12): Stanley (717 yards, three interceptions, one TD) was pulled late in the Baylor game for former starter Peyton Bender (1,437 yards, nine interceptions, eight touchdowns) but will start if he's healthy. Leading receiver Steven Sims Jr. (39 catches, 679 yards, four touchdowns) needs 113 yards to become the fifth player in school history to reach 2,000 career receiving yards. Junior linebacker Joe Dineen Jr. leads the country with 8.4 solo tackles per game, is second with 2.2 tackles for loss and third with 12.2 tackles per game.

ABOUT TEXAS (4-5, 3-3): Ehlinger (1,419 yards, six touchdowns, four interceptions) had started three straight before Shane Buechele (1,067 yards, five touchdowns, three interceptions) took over the past two weeks. Buechele was sacked seven times and leading rusher Chris Warren III (313 yards, five touchdowns) had one carry in last week's loss to TCU as Texas gained nine yards on the ground. The Texas defense, which is allowing 17.6 points in the eight games since allowing 51 in the Week 1 loss to Maryland, is ranked sixth nationally in third-down defense (26.5 percent).

EXTRA POINTS

1. The only FBS win for Kansas coach David Beaty (3-30 in three seasons) is last year's 24-21 overtime win against Texas.

2. Hill, who was suspended for the final three games for violation of team rules, was second on the team with 51 tackles and had three of Texas' five defensive touchdowns.

3. Kansas has scored two touchdowns - both against Kansas State - in its last four games. It was outscored 156-29 in that span.

Preview: Alabama at Mississippi State
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Top-ranked Alabama will be without two of its defensive stalwarts when it looks to remain unbeaten in Saturday's SEC visit to No. 18 Mississippi State. Senior middle linebacker Shaun Dion Hamilton was lost for the season with a broken right kneecap in last Saturday's victory over LSU while sophomore linebacker Mack Wilson will miss four-to-six weeks due to a foot injury.

Hamilton (5.5 tackles for loss) and Wilson (three interceptions) are two of the top performers on a superb unit that leads the nation in scoring defense (9.8 points per game) and ranks second in total defense (243.8 yards per game). The Crimson Tide continue to be ranked second in the College Football Playoff poll behind Georgia and can't afford a slip-up against a Mississippi State squad brimming with self-belief after four consecutive victories. "We're confident. There should never be a time where you line up against someone and not believe you can beat them," Bulldogs quarterback Nick Fitzgerald told reporters. "I have full confidence that we can win. Alabama is a really good football team and is tops in the country and has been for awhile. You have to go out there and not worry about the name on the jersey." The Crimson Tide rank ninth in scoring offense (40.9) and have won by more than 30 points on five occasions.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Alabama -14

ABOUT ALABAMA (9-0, 6-0 SEC): Senior outside linebacker Rashaan Evans (four sacks on the season) had 10 tackles against LSU and will be counted on even further while freshman Dylan Moses earned additional playing time by filling in after the injuries and recording 1.5 sacks against the Tigers. "He will have to step up," Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban told reporters. "Dylan has made a lot of progress throughout the season and I think he has a lot better understanding of what to do and how to do it." Sophomore quarterback Jalen Hurts has been intercepted just once in 175 attempts and his 616 rushing yards rank second on the squad behind junior Damien Harris (730).

ABOUT MISSISSIPPI STATE (7-2, 3-2): The Bulldogs rank 11th nationally in rushing offense (259.3) while relying on Fitzgerald (801 yards, 12 touchdowns) and junior back Aeris Williams (776 yards). Fitzgerald, a junior, is more productive as a runner as he has thrown nearly as many interceptions (10) as touchdowns (13) while completing 56.8 percent of his passes for 1,459 yards. Mississippi State ranks seventh nationally in total defense (259.3) and is led by junior outside linebacker Montez Sweat (team-best 6.5 sacks) and senior middle linebacker Dez Harris (team-best 55 tackles).

EXTRA POINTS

1. Alabama has won nine consecutive meetings and rolled up 615 offensive yards in last season's 51-3 victory.

2. The Bulldogs have scored four defensive touchdowns this season (three interceptions, one fumble).

3. Hurts passed for 183 yards against LSU to move into 10th place in Crimson Tide history with 4,186 -- he needs 72 to pass No. 9 Walter Lewis (1980-83).

Preview: Purdue at Northwestern
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Northwestern has won four straight games, including three in a row in overtime, to take over sole possession of second place in the Big Ten West heading into its game Saturday against visiting Purdue. The Wildcats are the first team in FBS history to win three consecutive overtime games, making them bowl-eligible for a third straight year.

Purdue ended a three-game losing streak with a 29-10 victory against Illinois on Saturday, but lost quarterback David Blough for the season with a dislocated ankle. Blough led the Big Ten last season with 3,352 passing yards and 25 TDs, lost the starting job this season and then regained it in the third week before a shoulder injury limited him again. He became the first quarterback for the Boilermakers to start and finish a game this season in a 25-24 loss to Nebraska on Oct. 28. Elijah Sindelar replaced Blough on Saturday and he'll remain the starter against a Northwestern defense that ranks last in the Big Ten against the pass at 265.7 yards surrendered per game.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Northwestern -4.

ABOUT PURDUE (4-5, 2-4 Big Ten): Sindelar has more interceptions (eight) than touchdown passes (seven) in his two years with the Boilermakers and has completed just 53.6 percent of his passes in that span, so Purdue will likely relieve some pressure by utilizing its ground game. D.J. Knox, Richie Worship and Markell Jones have been the primary ball carriers lately and they combined for 165 rushing yards on 31 carries and scored two touchdowns against Illinois. When the Boilermakers need to pass, Worship has increasingly shown to be a reliable option, catching seven of his nine passes in the past three games.

ABOUT NORTHWESTERN (6-3, 4-2): Justin Jackson needs 202 rushing yards for his fourth straight 1,000-yard season, but it won't come easy against a Purdue run defense that has allowed a combined 120 yards rushing in the past two games, its fewest in back-to-back games since 2005. Jackson has surpassed 100 yards rushing in his three previous games against the Boilermakers, totaling 147 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman, 116 yards and a touchdown as a sophomore and 127 yards and two touchdowns last season. Jackson is coming off a season-high 31 carries for 154 yards and a touchdown in 31-24 victory against Nebraska last week.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Ron Dayne of Wisconsin (1996-99) is the only Big Ten player to rush for at least 1,000 yards in four straight seasons.

2. Northwestern LB Paddy Fisher leads leads all FBS freshman with 80 tackles, which also ranks second in the conference and 11th in the nation.

3. Purdue has held three opponents under 100 yards rushing this season for the first time since 2012.

Preview: New Mexico at Texas A&M
Gracenote
Nov 9, 2017

Texas A&M takes a much-needed break from SEC action Saturday, when it hosts struggling New Mexico of the Mountain West Conference. The game has been overshadowed by talk surrounding Aggies sixth-year coach Kevin Sumlin, whose job reportedly is in jeopardy following back-to-back double-digit losses at home.

Texas A&M freshman quarterback Nick Starkel will return to the starting lineup against New Mexico after coming off the bench to throw for 184 yards and two touchdowns in last Saturday’s 42-27 loss to Auburn. The defeat dropped Texas A&M to 3-10 against SEC teams in November since 2013, which has many speculating about Sumlin’s tenuous job status. “What I do is focus on what we have to do this week to win games, and the big picture will take care of itself,” Sumlin told reporters. “What we can do is the best we can do. From that standpoint, it keeps you focused on what’s going on right now. That's how I’m going to continue to approach it, and that’s not going to change.” Before wrapping up the regular season with games against Ole Miss and LSU, the Aggies face a New Mexico team that has averaged 9.3 points during its four-game losing streak.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPNU. LINE: Texas A&M -19

ABOUT NEW MEXICO (3-6): Senior running back Richard McQuarley has recorded six touchdowns to lead the Lobos, who have committed 11 turnovers in their last two games. “Somewhere along the way here, we’ve turned into a hard-luck, mistake team,” coach Bob Davie told reporters. “It’s impossible to win when you are that, when you are who we are, particularly. It’s frustrating.” The defense is led by safety Jake Rothschiller, who has registered a team-high 55 tackles - including six in last Saturday’s 24-10 loss to Utah State.


ABOUT TEXAS A&M (5-4): After losing at home to Mississippi State and Auburn by a combined 36 points in the last two weeks, the Aggies are hoping to jump-start their offense behind Starkel, who replaces fellow freshman Kellen Mond under center. Sumlin might give running back Trayveon Williams a heavier workload after the sophomore rushed for 105 yards on 15 carries in last week’s loss. Linebackers Tyrel Dodson and Otaro Alaka lead a defense that is tied for the SEC lead with 16 takeaways and will be looking to capitalize on New Mexico’s turnover woes.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Aggies have won 28 straight non-conference home games dating back to 2008.

2. Davie spent nine seasons as a defensive assistant for Texas A&M from 1985-93.

3. Texas A&M has blocked five kicks in 2017 (three punts, two field goals), which is tied for the FBS lead.

Nov 8, 2017

Tulane needs to run the table to become bowl eligible and looks to snap a four-game losing streak when it visits East Carolina in an American Athletic Conference game Saturday. The Green Wave missed a late field goal last week, falling to Cincinnati 17-16.



Tulane's Jonathan Banks passed for 196 yards and rushed for 75 more, including a 53-yard scramble for a touchdown, but Merek Glover, who had already kicked field goals of 37, 19 and 26 yards, missed from 36 yards out with 1:20 to play against Cincinnati. "Offensively, we showed some flashes, but we just weren't consistent enough," Tulane coach Willie Fritz told reporters. "We had to settle for some field goals instead of touchdowns." East Carolina has won six of the last seven games in the series but saw its bowl hopes vanish last week with a 52-27 setback at Houston. Gardner Minshew set a conference single-game record for completions (52) for East Carolina.
TV: 7 p.m. ET, CBS Sports Network. LINE: Tulane -5

ABOUT TULANE (3-6, 1-4 AAC): The Green Wave defense hasn't recorded a sack in a month while surrendering an average of 489 yards during the four-game losing streak. Banks has improved recently, passing for 399 yards while connecting on 32-of-54 attempts with three touchdowns in the past two games. Tulane, however, still ranks 120th among the 129 FBS teams nationally in passing yards at 137.1 yards per game.
ABOUT EAST CAROLINA (2-7, 1-4): Minshew came off the bench in relief of Thomas Sirk to also set school records for pass attempts (68) and completions (52) while throwing for 463 yards against the Cougars. Who gets the start Saturday is still up in the air according to coach Scottie Montgomery. "I thought two weeks ago against BYU (an ECU win), what we saw in Gardner is a much calmer quarterback than we did in the first couple of situations in the games that he was in, when he was a little bit more frantic in the pocket," Montgomery told reporters.


EXTRA POINTS
1. Tulane RB Dontrell Hilliard leads the team with nine touchdowns but hasn't scored in the past two games.
2. East Carolina WRs Trevon Brown and Quay Johnson combined for 25 receptions, 256 yards and three touchdowns last week.
3. The Pirates rank last in the nation by allowing 46.6 points per game.

Preview: Tennessee at Missouri

Nov 9, 2017

Three weeks ago, it was Missouri that appeared to be in disarray, but perspective is everything. Suddenly, the Tigers’ situation seems far more suitable than the parade of struggling programs coming to town that includes Tennessee, which visits for an SEC East matchup on Saturday.


After sitting at 1-5 following a five-game losing streak, Missouri has reeled off three straight blowout wins – including a 45-16 rout of Florida last week – and has a favorable remaining schedule in order to run the table. The Tigers’ once-punchless offense is back in sync and has put up 165 points during the three consecutive wins. “That’s so important when you get into the month of November that you get an opportunity to hit your stride,” Missouri coach Barry Odom told reporters. “And we’re getting close. We’re improving in a lot of different areas, and they’re playing with confidence.” The Volunteers have no such luxury, although they did snap a four-game skid with a 24-10 win over Southern Miss last week.

TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, SEC Network. LINE: Missouri -11


ABOUT TENNESSEE (4-5, 0-5 SEC): The Volunteers totaled 16 points in consecutive losses to Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama, but the offense has bounced back somewhat the last two weeks. Freshman quarterback Will McBride made his debut in the second half last week and led two touchdown drives despite completing just 1-of-8 passes, and coach Butch Jones told reporters it will be a game-time decision whether he or redshirt freshman Jarrett Guarantano (ankle) starts Saturday. Tennessee ranks fourth in the nation and leads the conference in passing defense, holding opponents to 150 yards per game through the air, but will be tested against the SEC’s No. 2 passing offense.

ABOUT MISSOURI (4-5, 1-4): Tigers quarterback Drew Lock leads the nation with 31 touchdown passes and has thrown for 1,896 yards with 23 TDs and four interceptions over his last six games. Lock didn’t have to do much against the Gators, as the Tigers rolled up 227 rushing yards and ran the ball a season-high 46 times. The defense, which struggled terribly early in the season, has been excellent during the winning streak, but Missouri has forced only nine turnovers all season and is minus-9 in turnover margin.


EXTRA POINTS

1. Missouri’s defense has made 29 tackles for loss during its three-game winning streak after posting 27 in its previous five games.

2. Tennessee RB John Kelly is one of four players in the nation to lead his team in rushing yards (694) and receptions (27), and he ranks second in the SEC in scrimmage yards per game (118).

3. Missouri TE Albert Okwuegbunam leads the nation in touchdown receptions by a tight end (seven) despite making only 15 catches all season.

Nov 8, 2017

There will be plenty on the line on Saturday night when TCU visits Oklahoma. The teams enter the contest tied for first place in the Big 12 Conference, and the winner will remain in strong contention for one of the four coveted College Football Playoff spots.

Oklahoma came in at No. 5 and TCU was sixth in this week's CFP rankings. Another quality win this weekend could be just enough to move the winner into the top four next week. Perhaps even more important is that the victor will also have the inside track for one of the two spots in the Big 12 Championship Game on Dec. 2 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Tex., a contest that likely will ultimately decide if the Big 12 can garner one of the four CFP spots. "Being at one of the last home games we're going to have, and it's important to our College Football Playoff run, I'm going to call out our fans," Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield said. "It's going to be an important one for us. ... This crowd needs to be going. We give it our all week in and week out. I expect the fans to do the same for me on Saturday."

TV: 8 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Oklahoma -6.5

ABOUT TCU (8-1, 5-1 Big 12): The Horned Frogs rebounded from a 14-7 loss to Iowa State to stifle Texas 24-7 holding the Longhorns to just 263 total yards, including nine rushing. The nation's No. 6 rated defense, which is also No. 1 against the run (69.7 yards per gane), now takes on an Oklahoma offense that leads the nation in total offense (608.2 yards), passing offense (395.0 yards), offensive touchdowns (53), pass plays of 20-plus yards (59) and also paces the Big 12 in rushing offense (213.2). Defensive end Ben Banogu (35 tackles, 12.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks) and linebacker Travin Howard (70 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss) spearhead the TCU defense while senior quarterback Kenny Hill (176-of-259, 2,009 yards, 15 TDs, 5 interceptions.) and running back Darius Anderson (726 rushing yards, 7 TDs) will be counted on to carry the load for TCU on offense.

ABOUT OKLAHOMA (8-1, 5-1): Mayfield, considered by some to be the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy, leads the nation in completion percentage (71.7), pass efficiency rating (201.6) and is second in total offense (378.6 yards) and passing yards per game (358.4) after throwing for a school-record 598 yards and five touchdowns in last week's 62-52 win at Oklahoma State. Running back Rodney Anderson recorded his third straight 100-yard rushing game with 111 yards and a touchdown while sophomore wide receiver Marquise Brown hauled in a career-high nine passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns. Senior DE/LB Ogbonnia Okoronkwo tops the Big 12 in sacks (8.0) and is second in tackles for loss (14.0) and leads a Sooners defense that allows 28.2 points per game, or 14.3 more than TCU.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Oklahoma has scored at least 30 points in 18 of its last 19 games. The only time the Sooners failed was when they finished a point shy in a 29-24 win over Texas on Oct. 14.

2. Sooners TE Mark Andrews leads the nation's tight ends with 39 receptions, 701 receiving yards and an average of 18 yards per catch.

3. Oklahoma leads the series 11- and has won four of the five meetings since the Horned Frogs joined the Big 12 with the only loss coming in 2014, 37-33 in Fort Worth.

The Hurricanes made a statement and quieted some of their many critics last week with a resounding 28-10 victory over ACC rival and then-No. 13 Virginia Tech while the Fighting Irish continued to roll with a 48-37 triumph over Wake Forest.

It will be the first time since 1989 that both schools have been ranked in the Top 10 at the time of their meeting and, as it was in the rivalry's glory days of the 1980s, the teams are right in the thick of the national title race, with Brian Kelly's Irish sitting third in the College Football Playoff rankings and Mark Richt's Hurricanes jumping up to seventh. With the exception of a one-point loss to Georgia -- the No. 1 team in the CFP rankings -- Notre Dame has been plowing through its schedule thanks to Heisman hopeful Josh Adams and a powerful ground attack that has almost 1,000 more yards rushing this year than all of last season. Miami has taken a different path to the top, often needing clutch plays at crunch time to keep its 13-game winning streak alive -- Miami's last loss was 30-27 to Notre Dame last season -- but the Hurricanes showed against Virginia Tech that they have the offensive weapons and defensive speed and muscle to compete for the title. "We like it when we're competing in games like this, late in the year, that are that meaningful," Richt said. "It's what you hope for, it's what you work towards. It just so happens this Saturday night is going to be very meaningful to both teams."

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ABC. LINE: Notre Dame -3

ABOUT NOTRE DAME (8-1): Led by a bulldozing offensive front, the Irish ground attack (324.8 yards per game) is almost impossible to stop and Adams (132.3 average) has made opponents pay with his home-run ability as he has seven touchdown runs of at least 60 yards this season, although his streak of four straight games with a TD rush of over 70 yards was snapped last week against Wake Forest. "Their offensive line, probably the best in America," Richt said. "I don't think very many people would argue that. ... This is just line up and physically move people off the ball, a kick-your-tail type offensive line and great runners." The Irish defense has had its moments but can be beaten through the air, giving up 245.3 yards passing (90th in the nation) and 15 scores, a weakness that Hurricanes quarterback Malik Rosier (283 yards passing per game) and his dangerous receiving corps will look to exploit.

ABOUT MIAMI (8-0): Adams is not the only one making a living off big plays as the Rosier-led Hurricanes have proven far more adept at producing quick-strike scores -- two of their four touchdowns were over 42 yards against Virginia Tech -- than putting together long methodical drives. But Miami may need to churn out the yardage with running back Travis Homer to keep the defense fresh and off the field as the Hurricanes, although the nation's best at racking up tackles for loss (8.8 per game), have still bent far too often against the run, surrendering 176 yards or more in the four games prior to limiting Virginia Tech to 102. Forcing the Irish into mistakes will be crucial as the Hurricanes added four more turnovers against the Hokies and they now have 20 takeaways (13 interceptions, seven fumble recoveries) to rank fourth in the nation with an average turnover margin of plus-1.38 per game (Notre Dame sits tied for fifth with 1.33).

EXTRA POINTS

1. Kelly will coach his 100th game at Notre Dame on Saturday, joining Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian and Lou Holtz as the only head coaches to reach the milestone.

2. With its first 6-0 start in the ACC in team history, Miami remains in first place in the Coastal Division and its magic number to clinch the division is one.

3. The Irish hold an 18-7-1 series advantage, but the Hurricanes have won five straight meetings in Miami.

Preview: Arizona State at UCLA
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017

Arizona State is coming off a huge rushing performance and the Sun Devils will be facing one of the poorest run defenses in the country when they play UCLA in a Pac-12 game at the Rose Bowl on Saturday. Arizona State rushed for 381 yards in a 41-30 win against visiting Colorado last week, its most rushing yards since 1997.

The Bruins rank 128th out of 129 FBS teams at 303.2 rushing yards allowed per game, and that number even went down after they surrendered 272 rushing yards in a 48-17 loss at Utah last weekend. The Bruins feature the type of quarterback that can win a shootout, however, and Josh Rosen is expected to return after sitting out the Utah game with a concussion. Unfortunately, he'll be without wide receiver Darren Andrews, the Pac-12 co-leader in receptions per game (6.7) who sustained a season-ending knee injury against the Utes. Arizona State will looking to become bowl-eligible after missing out on the postseason for the first time in five seasons last year.

TV: 9:30 p.m. ET, Pac-12 Network. LINE: UCLA -2.5.

ABOUT ARIZONA STATE (5-4, 4-2 Pac-12): N'Keal Harry also averages 6.7 receptions a game for the Sun Devils, and he had a big touchdown catch against the Bruins last season, breaking a 13-13 tie on the final play of the third quarter and Arizona State eventually won 23-20. The Sun Devils will probably try to move the chains on the ground against UCLA's weak run defense and keep Rosen off the field. Arizona State senior running back Demario Richard should be motivated after rushing for 189 yards last week, including 141 in the fourth quarter.

ABOUT UCLA (4-5, 2-4): Rosen sustained a season-ending shoulder injury after throwing for 400 yards against Arizona State last season, which marked the beginning of a series of physical setbacks for the junior. He also experienced his first loss as a starter his freshman year against the Sun Devils, getting pressured relentlessly in the 38-23 defeat at the Rose Bowl. The Bruins will need to keep Arizona State's defense honest with their run game, and that chore will likely fall on Bolu Olorunfunmi, who had a season-high 16 carries against Utah for 63 yards.

EXTRA POINTS

1. UCLA is 4-0 at the Rose Bowl this season, where it hasn't gone unbeaten since 2005.

2. UCLA P Stefan Flintoft has seven punts of 50 yards or more this season and has placed 15 of 39 inside the opponent's 20-yard line.

3. Richard's 189 yards rushing last week was the most for an Arizona State player since D.J. Foster ran for 216 yards against New Mexico in 2014.

Where: Arizona Stadium, Tucson, Arizona

Preview: Oregon State at Arizona
Gracenote
Nov 9, 2017

Arizona’s hopes of winning the Pac-12 South likely ended with last week’s loss to USC, but the squad still holds the unofficial crown as the nation’s most exciting team. Dynamic quarterback Khalil Tate looks to get Arizona back in the win column Saturday against visiting Oregon State, which has lost seven straight and ranks last in the league in scoring at 20.7 points per game.

Tate has rushed for 100-plus yards and at least one touchdown in five consecutive games to lead the Wildcats, who saw their four-game winning streak come to an end with last Saturday’s 49-35 loss to the Trojans. The dual-threat sophomore has accumulated 1,890 yards of total offense over the last five contests but threw two interceptions and lost a fumble before engineering a comeback effort in the loss to USC. Arizona leads the Pac-12 in rushing at 327 yards per game and heads into Saturday’s matchup looking to avenge last season’s 42-17 loss to Oregon State in Corvallis. The Beavers have won just two games since then and fell to 0-3 under interim coach Cory Hall with last Saturday’s 37-22 loss to California.

TV: 10 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Arizona -22

ABOUT OREGON STATE (1-8, 0-6 Pac-12): The Beavers lost their 17th consecutive road game last Saturday despite a stellar effort from senior inside linebacker Manase Hungalu, who was named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week after recording a career-high 20 tackles. The Beavers have been more competitive since Hall took over for Gary Andersen, but the defense failed to slow down Cal running back Patrick Laird (career-high 214 yards) and faces another tough challenge against Tate. Hall will look to control the clock against the explosive Wildcats, which could mean a heavy workload for running back Ryan Nall.

ABOUT ARIZONA (6-3, 4-2): The Wildcats gave up five sacks against USC and allowed more than 600 yards for the second straight week, but there also were encouraging signs during an 11-minute span in the second half, when they erased a 22-point deficit with four touchdowns. Safety Dane Cruikshank recorded 10 tackles and an interception in the loss, giving Arizona 20 forced turnovers in nine games. The young secondary includes linebacker Tony Fields II, who tied his career high with 11 tackles against USC and leads all Pac-12 freshmen with 69 tackles.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Arizona leads the all-time series 22-15-1, but Oregon State has won six of the last seven meetings in Tucson.

2. Oregon State LB Bright Ugwoegbu will miss the first half after the junior was ejected in the third quarter of last Saturday’s game for targeting.

3. Arizona has rushed for 200 or more yards in seven straight games and eight of nine contests this season.

NCAAF opening line report: Week 11 betting opens with massive line move
Patrick Everson

“Early bettors got some great value, as top-ranked Georgia quickly moved from small ‘dogs to 2.5-point favorites.”

It’s the final month of college football’s regular season, and the push for the big prize – a spot in the four-team College Football Playoff – is getting turned on its head with each passing week. Everson checks in on the opening lines and early action for four key Week 11 matchups, with insights from Dave Mason, brand manager for offshore sportsbook BetOnline.ag.

No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs at No. 10 Auburn Tigers (-2)

Georgia is No. 2 in the polls, but No. 1 where it really matters – in the prestigious CFP ranking. The Bulldogs (9-0 SU, 6-3 ATS) remained on a collision course with Alabama for the SEC title by dispatching South Carolina 24-10 on Saturday, though they fell way short of cashing as 23.5-point chalk.

Auburn (7-2 SU, 4-3-2 ATS) could certainly upset Georgia’s apple cart this week. The Tigers’ two losses this season weren’t bad ones by any means – at Clemson and at Louisiana State – and they’ve won and covered on the road in their last two games. On Saturday at Texas A&M, Auburn won 42-27 as a 14.5-point favorite.

“Early bettors got some great value, as top-ranked Georgia quickly moved from small ‘dogs to 2.5-point favorites,” Mason said. “Georgia is by far the most popular bet on the entire betting board so far, with 93 percent of early bettors on the Dawgs. Even with the line move, bettors are still pounding Georgia and are counting on them to cover and beat Auburn for the sixth time in the last seven years.”

No. 5 Notre Dame Fighting Irish at No. 6 Miami Hurricanes (+1.5)

Notre Dame found itself at No. 3 in the initial CFP ranking released last Tuesday, after eye-catching victories over Southern California and North Carolina State. The Fighting Irish (8-1 SU, 7-2 ATS) kept rolling in Week 10, topping Wake Forest 48-37 as a 15.5-point home fave.

Miami is undefeated and trying to make its way into the CFP. The Hurricanes (8-0 SU, 4-4 ATS) certainly helped their cause in Week 10 by rolling over Virginia Tech 28-10 laying 2 points at home.

“Outside of Georgia-Auburn, no other game is getting as much early action as this top-10 showdown,” Mason said. “The Irish have been very generous to their loyal bettors this season, racking up a 7-2 record against the spread. The public will be counting on another Notre Dame cover – just 30 percent of the early tickets are on Miami.”

BetOnline.ag opened Notre Dame -1.5 and saw some upward movement, even getting to 4 momentarily, before dialing back to 2.5 and settling at 3 late Sunday night.

No. 9 Texas Christian Horned Frogs at No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners (-8)

If the Big 12 is to be represented in the CFP, one of these two teams will be doing said representing, and Oklahoma surely has the offensive firepower. On Saturday, the Sooners (8-1 SU, 5-4 ATS) hung a 62-burger on Bedlam rival Oklahoma State, holding on for a defensively challenged 62-52 victory as a 1-point road pup.

Texas Christian is also 8-1 SU and 5-4 ATS, and its lone loss was to Iowa State, just like Oklahoma. The Horned Frogs stubbed their collective toe in Week 9, but bounced back in Week 10 with a 24-7 home win over Texas giving 7.5 points.

“Dating back to last season, Oklahoma has been a covering machine in front of its home crowd, compiling an 8-1 record against the spread over their last 9 (home) games,” Mason said. “Despite this lopsided trend, 63 percent of early bettors hit TCU and the points. However, I believe the action will be pretty even come kickoff.”

No. 8 Washington Huskies at Stanford Cardinal (+5.5)

The Pac-12 is fading like a pair of 20-year-old jeans, with Washington – which made it to the CFP a season ago – the last best hope to reach the playoff this season. The Huskies (8-1 SU, 6-3 ATS) plastered Oregon 38-3 in Week 10, easily covering as a 17.5-point road chalk.

Stanford already has three losses on its resume, something even Heisman Trophy candidate Bryce Love can’t mask. The Cardinal (6-3 SU, 3-5-1 ATS) went to Washington State on Saturday as a 1.5-point favorite and left with a 24-21 outright loss, halting a five-game SU win streak.

“The Huskies have been on a covering tear recently, going 5-1 ATS over their last six games. Stanford, on the other hand, only covered the number once in its last five games,” Mason said. “The early bettors are split 50/50 on this one, although there hasn’t been too much early action. By comparison, there are more than three times the bets on Georgia alone than Washington and Stanford combined. Despite the lack of early action, Washington quickly moved to 7-point chalk.”

College football's biggest betting mismatches: Week 11
Monty Andrews

Virginia Tech isn't messing around in the pass defense department, allowing a minuscule 177.8 passing yards per game.

Florida State Seminoles at Clemson Tigers (-16, 46)

Florida State's O-line troubles vs. Clemson's top-flight pass rush

Clemson looks to continue its surge toward the College Football Playoff as it hosts lowly Florida State on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers outlasted a game NC State Wolfpack team last weekend, escaping with a 38-31 road victory. The Seminoles are also coming off a victory - edging Syracuse 27-24 - but are one of just a handful of FBS teams that has failed to cover a spread this season (0-6-2 ATS). Clemson has a significant edge in this one, particularly when Florida State has the football.

The Seminoles' quarterbacks have had a rough go of it this season, with James Blackman and Deondre Francois combining for nine touchdown passes and nine interceptions through eight games. Part of the problem has been a leaky Florida State offensive line that has surrendered a whopping 25 sacks - an average of 3.13 per game, ahead of only nine NFL teams. The O-line struggles have also played a role in the Seminoles ranking 90th in the nation in rushing yards per contest (143.8).

Florida State's beleaguered line might be facing its biggest test of the season Saturday against a Clemson pass rush that has made bettors smile - and opposing teams cringe. The Tigers' 33 sacks on the season rank second behind only USC, while their 3.67 sacks per game put them slightly behind NCAA-leading Arkansas State (3.71). Florida State could be in for a long afternoon if it can't figure out a way to slow a Clemson D-line that has the Tigers on the path to a CFP berth.

Oklahoma State Cowboys at Iowa State Cyclones (+6.5, 61.5)

Oklahoma State's turnover troubles vs. ISU's elite thievery

Bedlam took on a life of its own this past weekend, as the Cowboys and Oklahoma combined to score an absurd 114 points in a game the Sooners eventually won 62-52. The Cowboys' ransacked defense will look to recover this Saturday against an Iowa State team that saw its four-game winning streak halted with a 20-16 loss at West Virginia. But the Cyclones could make this a closer game than expected if they can exploit their advantage in securing - and preventing - turnovers.

The Cowboys need to take better care of the ball if they have any hope of playing in a marquee bowl game this December. Oklahoma State lost the turnover battle 3-2 against rival Oklahoma and has coughed up the ball 19 times through its first nine games; only 12 Division I teams have been worse at hanging onto the football. The Sooners are one of 14 FBS teams to have lost 10 or more fumbles, and QB Mason Rudolph has thrown three interceptions over his past two games.

That trend could very well continue this weekend, with Iowa State among the league's best at forcing turnovers. The Cyclones have recovered seven fumbles and snagged 11 interceptions through eight games, giving them a total of 18 takeaways - just outside the top 20 nationally. Three of those came in a stunning 14-7 win over then-No. 4 TCU two weekends ago, a victory that put Iowa State in the elite bowl picture. Look for a similar performance this weekend against a Cowboys team susceptible to turnovers.

Virginia Tech Hokies at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (+3, 50.5)

VT's vaunted pass defense vs. GT's anemic air assault

The Hokies met their match this past weekend, getting throttled 28-10 by a Miami Hurricanes team that all but secured a spot in the ACC title game. Virginia Tech will look to bounce back against a Georgia Teach roster that fell to 0-4 on the road with a 40-36 setback at Virginia. The Yellow Jackets have been a completely opposite team in their own stadium - boasting a flawless 4-0 home record - but that could be in jeopardy if they can't overcome a significant mismatch in the passing game.

Virginia Tech isn't messing around in the pass defense department, allowing a minuscule 177.8 passing yards per game - tied with UTSA for the 13th-lowest mark in Division I. The Hokies have forced more than their share of bad passes; opponents are completing just 45.2 percent of their total attempts, the lowest mark in the nation. In consecutive wins over Boston College, North Carolina and Duke, Virginia Tech limited opposing quarterbacks to 391 total yards on 32-of-79 passing.

Georgia Tech is known primarily for an incredibly run-heavy attack, but with the Hokies boasting a top-20 run defense that has allowed just four rushing scores all season, the Yellow Jackets will need to do something through the air. And that could be a problem: Georgia Tech has completed fewer than 40 percent of its passes on the season, ahead of only Army in all of Division I. Look for the Yellow Jackets offense to struggle in all areas this weekend - particularly in the passing department.

Michigan Wolverines at Maryland Terrapins (+15.5, 46.5)

Michigan's third-down dominance vs. Terrapins' drive-extension troubles

The Wolverines appear to have righted the ship following a disheartening loss to rival Penn State, reeling off consecutive blowout victories over Rutgers and Minnesota. With a pivotal game against hated Ohio State on the horizon, Michigan will look to build even more momentum this weekend in Maryland. The Terrapins have been one of the worst defensive teams in the nation, and haven't done themselves any favors by struggling to sustain drives on offense.

Michigan gets things done with a stout defense that ranks among the Division I leaders in a number of categories - including third-down defense. Only Syracuse and Washington State have been better at forcing punts when facing third-down situations than the Wolverines, who have limited opponents to a 24.4-percent success rate. The Scarlet Knights and Golden Gophers combined to make good on just seven of their 24 third-down opportunities in their respective losses to Michigan.

Third-down success has been elusive for the Terrapins in 2017 - and while that might not be the primary reason for Maryland's defense spending so much time on the field, it's certainly a contributing factor. Maryland comes into the weekend having extended drives or scored points on just 32.2 percent of their third-down situations - ranking it 115th in the nation. The chances of that success rate rising this weekend isn't good - and that could result in even more time on the gridiron for the Terrapins' weary D.

* The Crimson Tide have trailed for a two minutes, 23 seconds of the 540 minutes they have played this season. Alabama has forced a three-and-out on 44.6 percent of opponent drives in 2017; only Michigan has a higher success rate.

* The Bulldogs have seven interceptions in their past four games, with interception returns for a touchdown in each of their previous three contests. Mississippi State QB Nick Fitzgerald has four straight 100-yard rushing games, with seven TDs in that span.

LINE HISTORY: The undefeated Crimson Tide opened as 14.5 road faves at most shops and money on the home team has brought that line down to 13. The total hit the betting board at 51 and is down slightly to 50.5.

TRENDS:

* Bulldogs are 21-5 ATS in their last 26 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

* Under is 4-1 in Bulldogs last 5 conference games.

* Under is 8-0 in the last 8 meetings in Mississippi State.

* Under is 14-3-1 in the last 18 meetings.

(9) TCU Horned Frogs at (7) Oklahoma Sooners (-6.5, 61.5)

* The Horned Frogs have made good on 50 percent of their third-down opportunities, the sixth-best rate in the country. TCU RB Darius Anderson is averaging 6.0 YPC but hasn't reached the 100-yard mark since Sept. 23 vs. Oklahoma State.

* Sooners QB Baker Mayfield has multiple touchdown passes in every game this season, and has amassed 1,008 passing yards in his previous two road outings. Oklahoma is the only team in the nation averaging better than 600 yards of offense per game.

LINE HISTORY: The Sooners opened as 7.5 home chalk and that number was too high for bettors and money came in on the road team bringing that line down to 6.5. The total opened at 62.5 and has been bet down a full point to 61.5.

TRENDS:

* Horned Frogs are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.

* Under is 5-0 in Horned Frogs last 5 games overall.

* Under is 5-1 in Sooners last 6 vs. a team with a winning record.

* Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Oklahoma.

* Horned Frogs are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings in Oklahoma.

(5) Notre Dame Fighting Irish at (6) Miami Hurricanes (+3, 57.5)

* The Fighting Irish are one of seven FBS teams with a per-game turnover margin of 1.33 or better. Notre Dame QB Brandon Wimbush has accounted for three or more touchdowns in each of his previous four starts.

* The Hurricanes have converted just 31.3 percent of their third-down chances this season; only 12 Division I teams have been worse. Miami is tied for 10th nationally with 20 forced turnovers (seven recovered fumbles, 13 interceptions).

LINE HISTORY: Oddsmakers opened 'The U' as 3-point home dogs and that line briefly went up to +3.5 before returning to the opening number. The total hit the betting board at 57.5 and held for most of the week until dropping to 56.5 on Friday morning.

TRENDS:

* Fighting Irish are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall.

* Hurricanes are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 vs. INDEP.

* Under is 6-0 in Hurricanes last 6 games overall.

NCAAF Game of the Day: Notre Dame at Miami betting preview and odds

Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Miami Hurricanes (+3, 59.5)

It's no longer the Catholics vs. the Convicts but emotion should be almost as high on Saturday night when No. 6 Miami hosts No. 5 Notre Dame on the national stage in a renewal of their storied rivalry. The Hurricanes made a statement and quieted some of their many critics last week with a resounding 28-10 victory over ACC rival and then-No. 13 Virginia Tech while the Fighting Irish continued to roll with a 48-37 triumph over Wake Forest.

It will be the first time since 1989 that both schools have been ranked in the Top 10 at the time of their meeting and, as it was in the rivalry's glory days of the 1980s, the teams are right in the thick of the national title race, with Brian Kelly's Irish sitting third in the College Football Playoff rankings and Mark Richt's Hurricanes jumping up to seventh. With the exception of a one-point loss to Georgia -- the No. 1 team in the CFP rankings -- Notre Dame has been plowing through its schedule thanks to Heisman hopeful Josh Adams and a powerful ground attack that has almost 1,000 more yards rushing this year than all of last season. Miami has taken a different path to the top, often needing clutch plays at crunch time to keep its 13-game winning streak alive -- Miami's last loss was 30-27 to Notre Dame last season -- but the Hurricanes showed against Virginia Tech that they have the offensive weapons and defensive speed and muscle to compete for the title. "We like it when we're competing in games like this, late in the year, that are that meaningful," Richt said. "It's what you hope for, it's what you work towards. It just so happens this Saturday night is going to be very meaningful to both teams."

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ABC.

LINE HISTORY: Oddsmakers opened Notre Dame as three-point road chalk and early money coming in on the road team briefly raised the line to +3.5, before it returned to the opening number, where it currently sits. The total hit the betting board at 57.5 and money on the over drove that line as high as 60, before fading back to 59.5.

INJURY REPORT:

Notre Dame - TE Alize Mack (Probable, Concussion), DL Khalid Kareem (Probable, Knee), RB Josh Adams (Probable, Upper Body), QB Brandon Wimbush (Probable, Hand), RB Dexter Williams (Questionable, Thigh), WR Cameron Smith (Questionable, QB J.D. Carney (Questionable, Concussion).

Miami - WR Mike Harley (Questionable, Ankle), DB Dee Delaney (Questionable, Knee), DL Demetrius Jackson (Out For Season, Knee).

ABOUT NOTRE DAME (8-1 SU, 7-2 ATS, 6-3 O/U): Led by a bulldozing offensive front, the Irish ground attack (324.8 yards per game) is almost impossible to stop and Adams (132.3 average) has made opponents pay with his home-run ability as he has seven touchdown runs of at least 60 yards this season, although his streak of four straight games with a TD rush of over 70 yards was snapped last week against Wake Forest. "Their offensive line, probably the best in America," Richt said. "I don't think very many people would argue that. ... This is just line up and physically move people off the ball, a kick-your-tail type offensive line and great runners." The Irish defense has had its moments but can be beaten through the air, giving up 245.3 yards passing (90th in the nation) and 15 scores, a weakness that Hurricanes quarterback Malik Rosier (283 yards passing per game) and his dangerous receiving corps will look to exploit.

ABOUT MIAMI (8-0 SU, 4-4 ATS, 1-7 O/U): Adams is not the only one making a living off big plays as the Rosier-led Hurricanes have proven far more adept at producing quick-strike scores -- two of their four touchdowns were over 42 yards against Virginia Tech -- than putting together long methodical drives. But Miami may need to churn out the yardage with running back Travis Homer to keep the defense fresh and off the field as the Hurricanes, although the nation's best at racking up tackles for loss (8.8 per game), have still bent far too often against the run, surrendering 176 yards or more in the four games prior to limiting Virginia Tech to 102. Forcing the Irish into mistakes will be crucial as the Hurricanes added four more turnovers against the Hokies and they now have 20 takeaways (13 interceptions, seven fumble recoveries) to rank fourth in the nation with an average turnover margin of plus-1.38 per game (Notre Dame sits tied for fifth with 1.33).

TRENDS:

* Fighting Irish are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall.

* Hurricanes are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 vs. INDEP.

* Under is 6-0 in Hurricanes last 6 games overall.

* Under is 4-0 in Hurricanes last 4 vs. a team with a winning record.

CONSENSUS: The road favorites from Notre Dame are picking up 63 percent of the action on the spread and Over is getting 51 percent of the totals wagers.

My free winner for Saturday is on the Michigan Wolverines minus the points against the Maryland Terrapins. I normally don't like laying double digits on the road, especially in conference play, but the Wolverines are going to annhilate Maryland.

Michigan, which is sitting at 4-2 in the East Division of the Big Ten, needs a win to maintain its place, just behind Michigan State and Ohio State - which play one another today in Columbus, Ohio.

Maryland, meanwhile, is in fifth place, and has stammered through a disappointing season. I know the Terps have a decent scoring offense, but it will be no match for the No. 1 defense in the conference.

Michigan allows a total of 245.3 yards per game, and will stymie the Terps on their own field.

On the other side of the ball, Michigan will continue to run the ball well. The Wolverines have run roughshod through their last two opponents (Rutgers and Minnesota) for 705 yards. And if they want to throw the ball, they'll do that at free will against a Maryland secondary that is giving up nearly 260 yards per game through the air.

The Terrapins have the worst overall defense in the league, so Michigan will capitalize on every opportunity.

Wolverines roll to the win and cover.

Gators are in a major rut and it doesn't get any better this week for them.

Florida, losers of 4 in a row, were dismantled by Missouri last Saturday 45-16 on the road, while South Carolina has won 3 of 4 as they lost to #1 Georgia last week 24-10, a respectable road loss for the Gamecocks.

A look inside the numbers tells us why we need to bet on South Carolina this week without a concern. The Gamecocks always play well in conference match ups, they are 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 conference games. In fact, SC is 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 games overall. They also play well on grass as they are 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 games on grass.

For the Gators the numbers don't look so good. November is never a good month for Florida, Gators are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 games in November. The Gators are also 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss.

Bottom line is when the Gators are bad, they don't bounce back, they are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games after scoring less than 20 points in their previous game.

Gators continue to slide while South Carolina gets back to its winning ways.

Last season Wake Forest ended a 4-game series slide versus Syracuse with the 28-9 home win and cover over the Orange.

Today at the Carrier Dome I look for the 'Cuse to nip the Demon Deacons series win streak at one.

Wake Forest is playing their second straight away from home, and it will be the fourth time in the past five weeks the Deacs are road-bound. Last weekend, Wake used a pair of late touchdowns to squeeze inside of the back-door at Notre Dame, but today they are not getting nearly as many points as they were last week against the Irish, and they are facing a Syracuse team that should be a little prickly after seeing their comeback attempt at Florida State fall just a little shy as the Orange lost for the second straight week on the road in Florida - the week before at Miami-Fla.

Syracuse has done a good job of taking care of business at home, where they have won 3 straight, including their signature win over Clemson.

In a game the oddsmakers have priced near a pick, think we are getting tremendous value with the home team.

Wake to run out of gas playing on the road yet again.

Take Syracuse.

I am stunned at the price on this Michigan State-Ohio State game!?!?!

How can the 7-2 Spartans be this big of an underdog?!?!?!

Is this a "trap"!?!?!?

Urban Meyer's team was sitting pretty for the national championship playoff just one week ago, but the Buckeyes not only lost at Iowa, they were humiliated! In that loss, QB Barrett was picked off 4 times, and the defense was gouged for nearly 500 yards while allowing 55 points and 5 TD passes!

The Buckeyes have to be better this weekend back at home, but are they really this many points better than a Michigan State team that has given them fits I recent meetings? I don't believe they are!

Sparty has split the last 6 series meetings straight up with Brutus Buckeye, and 4 of those 6 meetings have been decided by no more than a field goal.

Ohio State is just 1-4 against the spread at home this season, and on an overall 6-15 home spread run their last 21. Meanwhile, Michigan State has covered 7 of their last 9 against the spread as the road dog.

Again, am I missing something with this line?

Take the points with Michigan State.

I wanted to give you Michigan State, and looked at every possible way the Spartans could go into Columbus, Ohio and hang with the Ohio State Buckeyes. Couldn't stick to one reason whatsoever.

Ohio State, which took it on the chin last week, is going to take all frustration out on the Spartans and could win this one by four touchdowns. Not even joking.

Michigan State upset Penn State last week, and now it has to back that up for a showdown with the Buckeyes? A Buckeyes team that was embarrassed by Iowa last week, and wants nothing more than to flex its muscles.

Sorry, but Urban Meyer will have his troops wound up for this one, and the Buckeyes will respond, looking to avenge the setback.

Take Ohio State here.

Your Saturday freebie is the Over in the TCU-Oklahoma game.

Something has to give in Norman on Saturday night, as TCU enters with a 2-7 Over/Under mark for the year, while Oklahoma plays this game with a 6-3 Over/Under for the season.

Which way do you go?

I say sparks with fly tonight when the Horned Frogs and Sooners look to keep their playoff hopes alive and kicking.

Last year's meeting saw a combined 98-points as 2 of the last 3 Big 12 rivalry meetings between the schools have now landed Over the total.

You saw Oklahoma post 62 points in last week's Bedlam win at Oklahoma State, but you also saw them allow 52 points. The Sooners defense is pretty permissive, so figure on the Frogs finding the end-zone in this game.

3 of Okie's 4 home games this year have landed Over the total, and I suspect you can add another to the list when this game goes final.

TCU-Oklahoma Over the total.

Utah coming off a convincing win over UCLA last week, 48-17. The win snapped a four game losing streak for the Utes. WSU is coming off a home win over Stanford, 24-21. The Cougars have lost two of their last three away games. In fact, the Cougars are just 1-5 ATS in their last six road games. I'm not convinced this WSU team can win consistently on the road. Meanwhile, Utah plays with lots of confidence before the home fans. Play UTAH.

Play on: OVER 69½ -110

10* FREE NCAAF PICK (Baylor/Texas Tech OVER 69.5)
These two teams should have no problem eclipsing this total, as this should be another one of those Big 12 games where not a whole lot of defense figures to be played. Texas Tech comes in giving up 34.1 ppg and have allowed 31 or more in each of their last 4. Baylor is even worse, allowing 36.1 ppg. The Bears defense did just hold Kansas to 9 points, but that's a horrific Jayhawks offense that has scored 29 points in their last 4 games combined.
Not only do we have two teams that don't play defense, but two very capable offenses. Texas Tech has been the better of the two and wouldn't be shocked if they did the heavy lifting here and put up close to 50. At the same time, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the Red Raiders defense allowed 40+ to the Bears. All we need is for each team to score 35 and we are in the clear. I wouldn't be shocked if we had a winning ticket here by the end of the 3rd quarter.
If you need a little more convincing, each of the last 7 meetings between these two teams have seen at least 89 combined points. Give me the OVER 69.5!

Play on: Minnesota -2½ -110 at Bovada

I'm recommending a play on Minnesota minus the points on Saturday. We have gone against Nebraska as a free or premium play six times this season and we're 5-1 ATS in those games, including last week when they had their chances against Northwestern, but failed down the stretch. That's one reason why we continue to play against the Huskers; they simply don't know how to win. Both the Huskers and Gophers are in near must win territory. Both teams are 4-5 SU and both teams have difficult remaining games making this of utmost importance. Nebraska can't run and can't stop the run, and when the offense struggles on first down, they're left with the mistake-prone Tanner Lee to attempt to bail them out with his arm. It hasn't worked. The Gophers have struggled on offense, but they're nasty stingy on defense and that's going to be the difference in this one in my opinion. I expect the Minnesota defense to force Nebraska mistakes, leading to the home win. Nebraska enters having covered just 3 of their last 11 games and we'll go against them here. I'm recommending a play on Minnesota minus the points on Saturday. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.

The Iowa Hawkeyes just have a way of playing to the level of their competition. They don't show up against mediocre or losing teams, but they've proven in recent years that they can play with the big boys. That couldn't have been more evident than last week's 55-24 beat down of Ohio State as 18-point underdogs. The Hawkeyes are now 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against ranked opponents, covering the spread by a combined 145 points. Now they are catching 12 points here against an overrated Wisconsin team. The Badgers have played one of the softest schedules in the country. I'm not worried about an Iowa letdown off that Ohio State win because Wisconsin is another Top 10 ranked opponent. The Hawkeyes will be putting their best foot forward, and I strongly believe this game will be decided by one score either way. The Badgers have cluster injuries right now, especially some key ones at linebacker and receiver. Give me Iowa.

This play just missed out on our premium card. The Tennessee Volunteers and the Missouri Tigers face off on Saturday, and in this game the value lies with the Tigers.
The Volunteers have seemed to quit on Butch Jones and his staff. They did win their last game against Southern Miss, a win they had to have, but before that they game they had lost four in a row, and they were ugly.
For the Volunteers their struggle has been on the offensive side of the ball. Coming into this game they are only averaging 20.8 points per game.
That isn't a good thing when you are facing a Tigers team that has no issue scoring points. They are currently averaging 36.6 points per game, and that number has risen the last few games.
In each of the last three games they have scored at least 45 points.
The Volunteers aren't going to be able to keep up.
Some trends to note. Tigers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall. Volunteers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games on fieldturf.

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach Free Pick CFB Game #139 Saturday OVER the total in Penn State Nittany Lions vs Rutgers Scarlet Knights @ Noon ET - Penn State is angry off of back to back losses and Rutgers won't be able to stop them here. Even though the Scarlet Knights have won 3 of their last 4 games it came against much weaker competition than what they're facing here. The most comparable team that Rutgers has faced that is similar to Penn State is Ohio State and the Scarlet Knights gave up 56 points against the Buckeyes. As angry as the Nittany Lions are, the fact is that their defense has allowed an average of 501.5 yards per game the past two weeks. Even though Rutgers is not a very good football team, they should be able to at least score a couple of times here and that should help to send this one way over the total because I don't foresee PSU ever taking their foot off the gas. They are angry and this is their homecoming game and they're ready to put on a show. The over is 7-1 in Penn State's November games. The over is 3-1 when Rutgers is a road dog of 21.5 points or more. Look for the Nittany Lions to win this one huge (but I am not fond of laying more than 30 points!) and it should fly over the total in Happy Valley EARLY today.

A crucial Big Ten battle takes place early on Saturday as the winner is in the drivers seat for a spot in the Big Ten Championship Game.
Ohio State comes in off a tough loss to Iowa, which eliminated them from the Playoff race. However, Urban Meyer will have his team fired up for this one and really take out some frustrations in this case. Expect them to open the playbook much more and really take some shots down field, while using plenty of tempo to try and keep this Michigan State defense off balanced.
On the other side of things, the Spartans offense is no pushover. They used the big play to really work Penn State and this is a defense that is very vulnerable as well.
Some trends to note. Over is 5-2 in Buckeyes last 7 home games. Over is 4-1 in Spartans last 5 road games.
Look for a back and forth game on both sides here.
Back the Over.

Play on: Boise State -6 -110 at BMaker

My 1* Free Play is on Boise State (10:30 EST).
The 7-2 Boise State Broncos are in Colorado State to take on the 6-3 Rams and for a number of different reasons, I think this one favors the visitors.
Boise State is surging towards the finish line as it’s won five straight, most recently a 41-14 victory over Nevada at home last weekend.
Colorado State is trending in the opposite direction, it comes in having dropped two straight, most recently a 16-13 setback to Wyoming last Saturday.
The Broncos come in ranked 48th in scoring offense, averaging 31.1 PPG, while ranked 25th on the defensive side in conceding just 19.9. QB Montell Cozart has 684 passing yards, nine TD’s to just one INT and is also second on the team in rushing with 299 yards on the ground and another four major scores. Brett Rypien has 1,360 yards, seven TD’s and three INT’s.
The Rams are ranked 47th offensively with 31.2 PPG, while ranked 62nd on the defensive side in conceding 25.7. QB Nick Stevens has 2,865 passing yards, 22 TD’s and nine INT’s. RB Dalyn Dawkins has 1,050 yards and five TD’s.
I’ll point out though that the Broncos are a perfect 4-0 ATS their last four on the road, while Coloroado State is 0-4 ATS in its last four conference contets.
Both teams are bowl eligible already, but CSU has dropped out of the conference picture after back-to-back losses. The door is now open for Boise State to step through. Consider laying the points in this matchup.
Good luck…Larry

At 4-5 on the season, the Duke Blue Devils need two wins in their final three games to get bowl eligible. They host Georgia Tech next week and travel to Wake Forest in the finale, and it would be tough to sweep those two games. So they are looking at this game at Army like a must-win for bowl eligibility.

The Blue Devils opened on fire going 4-0 SU & 4-0 ATS, but they have gone 0-5 SU & 0-4-1 ATS in their last five games since. But they got a bye last week to regroup, and that has given the Blue Devils two full weeks to prepare for the triple-option offense that Army runs.

And Duke has been great against the triple-option in recent years. They are 6-0 ATS in their last six against triple-option teams, and I think a lot of that has to do with their familiarity with it. They are also 18-4 ATS in their last 22 non-conference games. They will be ready for Army this week after beating the Black Knights 13-6 at home last year and 44-3 on the road in 2015.

Army is in a letdown spot here. The Black Knights are coming off a 21-0 shutout win at Air Force last week. It was their fifth straight victory, and they are now finally getting a ton of respect from oddsmakers. But they were fortunate to win their two previous games both at home over Eastern Michigan and Temple by a combined 4 points. I think their luck runs out this week against a well-rested and ready Duke squad.

Duke does have a very good defense this season. It gives up just 20.6 points and 340 total yards per game. The key to stopping Army is stopping the run, and the Blue Devils are equipped to do just that. They are giving up only 142 rushing yards per game and 3.9 per carry this season. They have held Army to 165 and 120 rushing yards in their last two meetings, respectively.

David Cutcliffe is 15-6 ATS when the line if +3 to -3 as the coach of Duke. Jeff Monken is 0-6 ATS when playing against a marginal losing team (40% to 49%) as the coach of Army. The Blue Devils are 5-0 ATS in their last five vs. Independent teams. Duke is 12-0 ATS in its last 12 games on fieldturf. The Black Knights are 0-4 ATS in their last four home games. Army is 9-19-1 ATS in its last 29 games following a win. The Blue Devils are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Bet Duke Saturday.

Play on: Colorado State +6½ -110 at betonline

Dave's Saturday Free Play:

1* on Colorado State +6.5

The Key: The Colorado State Buffaloes came into the season as one of the favorites to win the Mountain West. But now at 4-2 in MWC play, they cannot afford another loss if they want to get to the title game. Those two losses came to Air Force and Wyoming. They get a chance to redeem themselves against the Boise State Broncos, the team leading the Mountain Division. Boise State is getting a lot of love right now after going 5-0 SU & 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. And now the price is right to go against them. This line is basically saying that Colorado State would be a 10-point dog on a neutral field against Boise, and I just don't think there's that much difference between these teams. The Rams have a high-powered offense that is putting up 31.2 PPG, 484 YPG and 6.7 YPP, including 42.0 PPG, 543 YPG and 7.6 YPP at home. The Broncos are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 vs. a team with a winning record. The Rams are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 vs. a team with a winning record. Take Colorado State.

Play on: Navy -4½ -110 at betonline

Navy -4.5 1.1% Free Play
Navy is off 3 straight losses, but two have been against top 25 teams Memphis, and Central Florida and the third against Temple who had an extra week to prepare against the triple option with a defensive minded coach. SMU just fell to Central Florida at home by only 7 points where they gave everything they had. I expect a bit of a hang over here on the road against a Navy team that is desperate for a win.
This would normally be a premium play, but it's hard to tell if Navy is distracted this year by the Showtime Series following them around. The -7 TO margin is the big reason why they are not undefeated at this point, but they still can run the ball, and SMU has really struggled to stop it. The last two years SMU has given up 16 rushing TD's and nearly 1,000 rushing yards in 2 games against Navy in 31-75 loss, and a 14-55 loss. SMU has given up 200+ yards five times this year and that is against teams that throw the ball 50% of the time or more. Here Navy should get their 400 control the game and get out with a 7+ point win. I actually don't even think SMU will be able to stop Navy and force a punt. This one could get ugly.

*3 Star Free Pick* The Texas Longhorns defense has been playing really well of late.

They allowed only 7 points against a Baylor offense that has been pretty good.
Kansas has scored 0 points in two of their last four games. The Jayhawks have scored 9 points or less in 3 of their last 4. This Jayhawks offense has completely fallen apart.
Texas could run up the score here, though it wouldn't prove a whole lot. Texas needs to win another game after this to become bowl eligible. They should look to run clock later in the game.
With one offense inept, this is a fairly high total. I'll take the under here.

Preview: Maple Leafs at BruinsGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The Toronto Maple Leafs visit the Boston Bruins on Saturday in the back end of a home-and-home series and will not have leading scorer Auston Matthews for the third straight game because of an upper-body injury. Toronto rallied for a 3-2 victory Friday behind two goals from James van Riemsdyk - the second coming with one minute left in regulation - before Patrick Marleau ended it in overtime.

"Obviously, the guys did a good job coming back,'' Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock told reporters. "A good night for our team. Obviously, it looked like we were getting nothing and suddenly you get two (points). That's positive.'' Toronto tries for its sixth straight victory over Boston while hoping to win for only the second time in its last six road games. The Bruins fell to 0-2-3 versus the Eastern Conference this season but welcomed the return of Brad Marchand, who had an assist Friday after missing two games with a concussion and is second on the team with eight goals and 15 points. Boston's David Pastrnak scored his club-best 10th goal Friday, tallying for the second straight game and giving him 17 points this season.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, NHL Network, CBC, CITY (Toronto), NESN (Boston)

ABOUT THE MAPLE LEAFS (11-7-0): Mitch Marner assisted on the final two goals Friday and boasts five in the last four games, but has only a goal and 10 assists this season after recording 19 goals and 61 points as a rookie in 2016-17. "It's great to see Mitch (Marner) be important at the end and get a couple of points,'' Babcock said. "He's looking for some positive reinforcement from the game and if you work real hard the game usually rewards you, so good for him." Curtis McElhinney (1-1-0, 4.10 goals-against average, .869 save percentage this season) is expected to play goal Saturday after Frederik Andersen improved to 9-0-0 versus the Bruins on Friday.

ABOUT THE BRUINS (6-5-4): Patrice Bergeron scored in his second straight game Friday and has 11 points (four goals) in 10 games this season. Noel Acciari returned Friday after missing 13 games with a broken finger and was a minus-1 in 14:47 of ice time. Tuukka Rask (3-5-2, 2.77, .903 this season), who is 15-5-2, 2.07, .927 versus Toronto, will start in goal after Anton Khudobin took the loss Friday.

OVERTIME

1. Marleau, who has 515 goals - tied for 38th all-time with Pierre Turgeon, has three goals and two assists in his last six games.

2. Boston killed 5-of-6 penalties Friday, allowing a power-play goal for the first time in seven games.

3. Matthews leads Toronto with 10 goals and 19 points.

Preview: Sabres at CanadiensGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The Montreal Canadiens hope to get two of their most important players back in the lineup Saturday,when they host the Buffalo Sabres for an Atlantic Division matchup. All-Star defenseman Shea Weber (lower body) and offensive whiz Jonathan Drouin (upper body) both missed Montreal’s 3-0 loss to Minnesota on Thursday but were back skating at the optional practice one day later.

“That’s part of hockey,” Canadiens coach Claude Julien told reporters after his team registered 41 shots against Minnesota. “Injuries happen during a season, and you have to manage it. (On Thursday), we still gave ourselves a chance to win.” Montreal’s Charlie Lindgren (5-1-0 career) is expected in net for the fourth straight contest - with former Hart and Vezina Trophy winner Carey Price still day-to-day with a lower-body injury - and will take on a Buffalo team that followed a big win against Washington with a disappointing 4-1 home loss to Florida on Friday. The Sabres have played better since starting the season with five straight losses, but they only have been able to post back-to-back wins once and mustered six shots in the first period against the Panthers while falling into a tie with them for last place in the Eastern Conference. Evander Kane notched an assist for Buffalo in the loss and leads the team with 16 points - five in his last five contests.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, MSG (Buffalo), Sportsnet, TVA (Montreal)

ABOUT THE SABRES (5-9-2): Buffalo is averaging just two goals per game since putting up five at Boston on Oct. 21, and that was the last time Jack Eichel scored as he’s gone seven contests without a tally. Jason Pominville (13 points) recorded two of his six goals in the season opener against Montreal and Ryan O’Reilly (12 points) posted a minus-3 rating on Friday. Nathan Beaulieu (upper body) returned to the lineup for the first time since Oct. 20 and fellow defenseman Josh Gorges (lower body) could be back as early as Saturday after missing nine games.

ABOUT THE CANADIENS (7-9-1): Backup goaltender Al Montoya also is out with an upper-body injury, prompting Montreal to recall Zachary Fucale from Laval of the American Hockey League on an emergency basis, but Lindgren has been outstanding as he has posted a .961 save percentage. “I have zero issues of putting him in the net no matter what the situation is,” Julien told reporters. “As an organization, his teammates, everybody has good confidence in him.” Brendan Gallagher leads the team with 12 points, including 10 in his last 10 games, with Weber and Drouin next at 11.

OVERTIME

1. Buffalo RW Kyle Okposo scored his team’s only goal Friday and has two in four games after going scoreless his first 10 contests of the campaign.

2. Montreal LW Alex Galchenyuk has posted just two points - both assists - in his last four games but recorded 18 shots in that span, including eight on Thursday.

3. The Canadiens are 5-1-1 in the last seven meetings, including a 3-2 shootout victory in the season opener on Oct. 5.

Preview: Blue Jackets at Red WingsGracenote
Nov 10, 2017

The Columbus Blue Jackets hope to halt a four-game slide as they begin a stretch of three games against Original Six clubs Saturday versus the host Detroit Red Wings. Columbus, which follows with games against Montreal and the New York Rangers, fell to 0-3-1 over its last four contests with Friday's 3-1 loss to Carolina, a game in which it owned a lead after one period before allowing the final three goals.

Brandon Dubinsky continues to make up for an awful first month of the season as he scored the Blue Jackets' goal against the Hurricanes to give him four points (two goals) over his first five games of November. After breaking even on a four-game trek through Canada, Detroit begins a string of five contests at home, where it owns a 2-2-1 record. The Red Wings were thwarted Thursday in their attempt at their first three-game winning streak of the season as they concluded their road trip with a 6-3 loss at Calgary. Anthony Mantha recorded a goal and two assists in the setback to raise his team-leading point total to 16.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, FSN Ohio (Columbus), FSN Detroit

ABOUT THE BLUE JACKETS (9-7-1): Columbus' winless streak has coincided with its power play, which has failed to produce a goal in 11 opportunities during the slide. The club is 5-for-50 with the man advantage on the season, putting it last in the league. Alexander Wennberg has been one of the Blue Jackets' biggest disappointments thus far, recording one goal in 17 games after notching a career-high 13 in 80 contests last season.

ABOUT THE RED WINGS (8-8-1): Mantha is beginning to live up to being the 20th overall pick in the 2013 draft as he leads the team with eight goals in 17 games after recording 17 in 60 contests last season. The 23-year-old right wing has tallied in four of his last five games and notched eight points in his last six matches. Rookie Martin Frk is riding a three-game goal-scoring streak and is tied for second on the team with six and even with Mantha for first with three power-play tallies.

OVERTIME

1. Red Wings C Frans Nielsen has collected four points over his last three games to double his season total.

2. Columbus C Zac Dalpe sat out his second straight contest Friday because of an upper-body injury.

3. Detroit C Scott Wilson has gone nine games without registering a point since being acquired from Pittsburgh on Oct. 21.

Preview: Panthers at DevilsGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The New Jersey Devils are fighting through their first bit of adversity this season and look to end a four-game winless streak when they host the Florida Panthers on Saturday. The Devils have picked up a pair of points during their skid, including one in a 3-2 overtime loss to Edmonton on Thursday, but have given up 16 goals in their last four contests while the Panthers are near the top of the league in scoring.

“It was a pretty good effort,” New Jersey's Brian Boyle told reporters Thursday after scoring his first goal of the season. “It’s still a work in progress. It’s November. We’ve still got a bunch of points. We need to get better. … I think everybody’s got the right mindset.” The Devils outshot an opponent for the first time in eight games Thursday and hope to do so again versus Florida, which snapped a five-game losing streak Friday with a 4-1 victory at Buffalo. The Panthers, who are last in the league in goals-against average (3.93), allowed fewer than two for just the second time this season on Friday in what Roberto Luongo called “probably” their best defensive game of the season. “There were no passengers on this team,” Luongo told the Sun Sentinel. “That’s what it takes to win in this league.”

TV: 7 p.m. ET, FSN Florida, MSG Plus (New Jersey)

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (5-8-2): Despite their record, Florida has five players averaging more than a point per contest while Vincent Trocheck is riding a four-game goal-scoring streak that has raised his team-high total to eight. Jonathan Huberdeau registered three assists Friday to take over the team lead with 19 points and Aleksander Barkov notched two points to tie Trocheck at 17 while Evgenii Dadonov (16) added a goal and an assist. James Reimer (3-4-1, .890 save percentage), who sat out the last three games as Luongo returned from a hand injury, could be back in net for the second contest of a back-to-back set.

ABOUT THE DEVILS (9-4-2): Boyle, who was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia in September, went 9-5 in the faceoff circles on Thursday and told MSG after scoring his first-period goal: “I’ve never cried after a goal before. That’s a great feeling. It’s everything.” Boyle can add offense among the bottom-six forwards to support the top lines as Taylor Hall leads the team with 17 points (12 assists) and Brian Gibbons has scored a club-best seven goals. Rookie Nico Hischier has been held without a goal in eight consecutive games while Adam Henrique has notched just one point in five contests this month.

OVERTIME

1. Florida D Aaron Ekblad has had a bounce-back season with eight points and a plus-8 rating after finishing at minus-23 in 2016-17.

2. The Devils are 0-for-11 on the power play this month but still were eighth in the league (21.6 percent) through Thursday.

3. The Panthers have won five straight against New Jersey, allowing just seven goals during that stretch.

Preview: Wild at FlyersGracenote
Nov 10, 2017

Jakub Voracek has recorded back-to-back multi-point performances and eight this season as the Philadelphia Flyers' top line continues to produce a significant percentage of the team's offense. Voracek, Sean Couturier and captain Claude Giroux look to keep surging ahead on Saturday as the Flyers conclude their three-game stretch at Wells Fargo Center with the opener of a home-and-home series versus the Minnesota Wild.

All three members of the line scored a goal and Voracek and Giroux each added a pair of assists in Philadelphia's 3-1 triumph over Chicago, improving the club to 2-0-1 in its last three games. Voracek has collected 11 points (four goals, seven assists) in the last eight contests overall and scored two goals and set up another as the Flyers swept last season's two-game series versus the Wild. Jason Zucker bettered his two-goal performance in Wednesday's 4-2 setback at Toronto by netting a natural hat trick the following night as Minnesota snapped a three-game skid with a 3-0 win at Montreal. "I'll take them any way I can get them," the 25-year-old Zucker said. "I guarantee I've never done that (score five times in two games). It's nice to get that, but we've got to regroup and get ready for our next game in Philly."

TV: 7 p.m. ET, FSN North (Minnesota), NBCSN Philadelphia-Plus

ABOUT THE WILD (6-7-2): Devan Dubnyk turned aside all 41 shots he faced on Thursday for his first shutout of the season and 25th career, improving his save percentage to .933 in his past six starts. The 31-year-old Saskatchewan native hasn't been as fortunate versus Philadelphia, dropping both encounters last season to see his career record against the club fall to 2-5-1. Eric Staal notched a pair of assists against the Flyers last season, increasing his career total to 39 points (17 goals, 22 assists) in 50 contests.

ABOUT THE FLYERS (8-6-2): Couturier has 12 points (six goals, six assists) in his last eight games overall, and perhaps more importantly earned the respect of Giroux with the way he plays away from the puck. "He's a really smart player," Giroux told Philly.com. "So he's good at finding ways to get open, finding air. ... Hey, make sure you don't tell him I said he was smart, OK?" Couturier scored in Philadelphia's 3-1 win at Minnesota on March 23 and fellow forward Wayne Simmonds had two assists versus the Wild last season, giving him 15 points (five goals, 10 assists) in 21 career encounters.

OVERTIME

1. Philadelphia G Brian Elliott turned aside 38 shots on Thursday to improve his save percentage to .934 in his last four starts. He sports a 9-2-0 mark with two shutouts in 13 career games against Minnesota.

2. Wild RW Nino Niederreiter has scored two goals and set up two others in six games since returning from a high ankle sprain.

3. The line of Couturier, Giroux and Voracek has totaled 23 goals and 60 points in 16 games, putting the unit second in the NHL.

Preview: Blackhawks at HurricanesGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The Chicago Blackhawks hope to end their baffling offensive woes while taking on some old friends when they visit the rejuvenated Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. The Blackhawks, who scored 15 goals in their first two games of the season, managed a total of one in losing their last two and have tallied only 12 times over the last seven contests while falling back to .500 (7-7-2).

“I guess we all just have to have a little faith, we have to stick with it,” Chicago captain Jonathan Toews told reporters after a 3-1 loss at Philadelphia on Thursday. “Once we see a few go in, then everyone is going to feed off that confidence and feed off that energy those goals give us.” The Blackhawks are expected to face their former backup Scott Darling while ex-teammates Marcus Kruger, Trevor van Riemsdyk, Teuvo Teravainen, Joakim Nordstrom and Klas Dahlbeck all are on Carolina's roster. Jordan Staal scored twice as the Hurricanes rallied to post a 3-1 victory over Columbus on Friday - their second straight triumph after losing four in a row. “We played with speed (Friday),” Staal told reporters. “Our execution has been slowly improving, and it’s a continuing process we have to do day in and day out if we want to win games.”

TV: 7 p.m. ET, WGN (Chicago), FSN Carolinas

ABOUT THE BLACKHAWKS (7-7-2): Coach Joel Quenneville started the last game with Toews centering Patrick Kane and Patrick Sharp on the top line, but Brandon Saad replaced Sharp after a slow start and finished with a season-high eight shots. Saad has not scored a goal in 10 games while Kane, who leads the team with 14 points, was kept off the scoresheet the last two contests and Ryan Hartman (10 points) has been blanked in four straight. One of the problems on offense is the power play as Chicago is just 3-for-36 with the man advantage in its last nine contests.

ABOUT THE HURRICANES (6-5-3): Darling, who went 18-5-5 with Chicago last season before being traded to Carolina, has given up one goal each in his last two starts and is 2-0-2 in his past four outings. Justin Williams notched an assist on Friday for his seventh point in six games and team-leading 12th overall while Jeff Skinner (team-best seven goals) has been kept off the scoresheet in four straight. Brett Pesce returned to the lineup after missing three games with a concussion, logging 23 minutes, 3 seconds of ice time, and fellow defenseman Noah Hanifin posted an assist for the third consecutive contest.

OVERTIME

1. Carolina RW Sebastian Aho recorded his eighth assist of the season Friday but is looking for his first goal after scoring 24 in 2016-17.

2. Chicago G Corey Crawford has allowed eight goals over his last six games, posting a .951 save percentage in that span.

3. The Hurricanes have won three of the last four meetings but lost the most recent matchup 2-1 on Jan. 6.

Preview: Penguins at PredatorsGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The Nashville Predators are in the midst of their longest winning streak of the season and look to keep it going as Kyle Turris makes his debut when they host the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. Nashville closed out a four-game road trip with three straight victories, including a 3-1 triumph at Columbus on Tuesday.

Turris was acquired in a three-team trade involving Ottawa and Colorado on Sunday but was kept from joining his new club for several days while waiting for the completion of the immigration process. The 28-year-old has participated on a line with Kevin Fiala and Craig Smith during practice and could center the unit against Pittsburgh. The Penguins' road winless streak reached three games (0-2-1) on Friday as they dropped a 4-1 decision at Washington. Phil Kessel was credited with the goal for Pittsburgh and leads the team in scoring with 20 points.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, AT&T SportsNet-Pittsburgh, FSN Tennessee (Nashville)

ABOUT THE PENGUINS (9-7-2): Kessel is riding a three-game point streak during which he has recorded two goals and three assists. The 30-year-old has been consistent offensively thus far this season, notching at least one point in 14 of his 18 contests. Sidney Crosby, the reigning Maurice Richard Trophy winner, has gone 10 consecutive games without a goal.

ABOUT THE PREDATORS (8-5-2): Viktor Arvidsson extended his goal-scoring streak to three games Tuesday and added an assist after being kept off the scoresheet in six consecutive contests. Filip Forsberg hopes to break out of his slump Saturday as he has gone four straight games without a tally. The 23-year-old Swede leads the team with eight goals and is one shy of 100 for his career.

OVERTIME

1. Penguins C Evgeni Malkin ranks second on the team with 19 points, notching four over his last two games and at least one in six of his last seven contests.

2. Nashville C Ryan Johansen, who has scored at least 14 goals in each of the last four seasons, has yet to tally in 2017-18.

3. Pittsburgh ranks third in the league in power-play percentage (26.1) and has scored the second-highest amount of man-advantage goals (18).

Preview: Hawks at WizardsGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The Washington Wizards will try to put together consecutive wins for the first time in nearly three weeks when they continue a four-game homestand against the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday in their first matchup since the first round of the playoffs last season. The Wizards are 3-5 since opening the season 3-0, but they put things together on both ends of the floor in a 111-95 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday.

It was the squad's best defensive effort in a span of five games, the first four of which saw it give up an average of 115.3 points. "It's a start," coach Scott Brooks told reporters. "It's not solved, our defense, but it's a start. It was a solid basketball game for a lot of guys." The Hawks have been more competitive of late, first snapping an eight-game slide at Cleveland and then suffering narrow defeats against early Eastern Conference front-runners Boston and Detroit. However, after Friday's 111-104 loss to the Pistons, Atlanta had allowed at least 110 points in six consecutive games.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, FSN Southeast (Atlanta), NBCSN Washington

ABOUT THE HAWKS (2-10): Kent Bazemore scored a season-high 22 points on 8-of-16 shooting in Friday's loss after shooting under 50 percent from the field in his previous nine affairs. Five others reached double figures for Atlanta, which was done in by a 19-point second quarter in falling for the sixth time in its last seven road games. "Hopefully we can build on the second half, the way we played," coach Mike Budenholzer told the media. "It's really how we need to play for the whole game. Not good enough in the first half and dug ourselves a hole."

ABOUT THE WIZARDS (6-5): John Wall scored 23 points, Bradley Beal had 22 and Otto Porter Jr. chipped in 20 in the win over the Lakers as Washington shot 51.8 percent from the floor. Seven reserves combined to score 22 on 8-of-21 shooting, continuing a theme of some lackluster bench play for the Wizards, who entered Friday's action with an average of 29.6 points from their substitutes - 24th in the NBA. The starters should be bolstered by the continued progression of forward Markieff Morris, who scored 16 points in 17 minutes Thursday in his fourth game since returning from hernia surgery.

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Wall averaged 29.5 points and 10.3 assists in Washington's 4-2 first-round series win over Atlanta in April.

2. Hawks C Dewayne Dedmon is shooting 69.4 percent over his last four games.

3. Porter is shooting 51.1 percent from 3-point range.

PREDICTION: Wizards 109, Hawks 99

Preview: Clippers at PelicansGracenote
Nov 11, 2017

The New Orleans Pelicans found a groove during an impressive road trip and they will try to translate their success to the home court against the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday. After a 3-5 start that featured three home losses, the Pelicans went 3-1 on their swing and the only loss was a four-point setback in the finale at Toronto.

The star duo of Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins combined for 38 points and 22 rebounds - both well below their season averages - and New Orleans had just enough sloppy moments while falling to 5-3 on the road. "Off our turnovers and their second shots, they ended up with 38 points," coach Alvin Gentry told the medai. "That's a lot of points to give up in an NBA game." The Clippers have been scoring enough points but making far too few stops on the other end during a four-game losing streak, including Friday's 120-111 setback at Oklahoma City. Guard Patrick Beverley (knee) and forward Danilo Gallinari (glute) were both absent and star forward Blake Griffin was 5-of-19 from the floor in the setback.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, Prime Ticket (Los Angeles), FS New Orleans

ABOUT THE CLIPPERS (5-6): Los Angeles is 1-6 since a 4-0 start and opponents are averaging 114.3 points during the four-game slide. It was competitive on Friday only because of reserve guard Lou Williams, who hit six 3-pointers en route to 35 points in 39 minutes. Beverley has already been ruled out for Saturday's game while Griffin could probably use some rest after averaging 18.3 points - more than four below his season average - on 34 percent shooting during a three-game stretch and playing 40 minutes Friday night.

ABOUT THE PELICANS (6-6): While Davis and Cousins were somewhat kept in check at Toronto, guard Jrue Holiday erupted for season highs of 34 points and 11 assists. "Jrue played incredible (Thursday)," Cousins told reporters. "It sucks that we couldn't give him the help that he deserved tonight and to help pull out this win. He had a huge night, he carried us the entire night, and like I said, it just sucks that we couldn’t be a supporting cast for him." Cousins averaged 31.5 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists in two games against the Clippers last season while still with Sacramento.

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Williams is averaging 24.7 points while making 11 3-pointers in a three-game stretch.

2. The Pelicans released veteran F Josh Smith on Friday.

3. The Clippers won two of three meetings last season.

PREDICTION: Pelicans 111, Clippers 105
