3 Unit Play Take #291 Wyoming -3.5 over New Mexico State (10:00pm est):

Wyoming head coach Craig Bohl is one of the best coaches in college football that most haven't heard about. Bohl came to the Cowboys after winning 3 straight FCS championships at North Dakota State. After two lean years at Wyoming going 6-18 overall he's taken this team to much higher levels over the past two seasons posting back to back 8 win seasons. This year's squad looks to be his best team yet at Wyoming as they return 17 starters overall. This is a physical football team who held each of it's last six opponents to 20 points or lower last season and nearly all of those guys are back this season on the defensive side of the football. Look for the Cowboys to impose their physical edge here in this game.New Mexico State was a great feel good story last year as they won their final two regular season games to go 6-6 overall and earn their first bowl game in 56 years. Those two wins were very exciting close victories but keep in mind both of those wins came at home against two teams with nothing to play for and who were also missing their starting quarterbacks in those games. The Aggies six regular season wins last year also weren't very impressive when you look closer at who they beat as all of them came against teams with losing records and none of those teams had more than 4 wins total for the season while combining for a 15-49 record overall. Making things more difficult this year for NMSU is they are not only losing three quality offensive players from last year's team as QB Rogers was 2nd in career passing yardage at NMSU, RB Rose was a former Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year winner and WR Scott was a 1,000+ yard receiver last season and was drafted in the 4th round of the NFL draft. That's having to replace three very good players that a team like NMSU doesn't usually have. Take Wyoming minus the points here.

Robert Ferringo's Picks For Football (NFL and NCAA)

COLLEGE FOOTBALL SELECTIONS
2-Unit Play. Take #291 Wyoming (-3.5) over New Mexico State (10 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)
I am going chalk in the first game of the year. I know that this is a really, really square play. But this one is more about my feeling that this Wyoming team is actually a little better this season than last. Last year they had to deal with all the talk about how great Josh Allen was. And then he went out and sucked. I think Wyoming is going to welcome not having all that attention on one guy rather than the team. And the Cowboys have a legit, legit defense that should control this game. Wyoming was No. 10 in the country in points allowed last year, No. 13 against the pass, and No. 23 overall. They have nine starters back from that defense. I think that Craig Bohl is a good coach that will have this team motivated. As for NMSU, these guys are kind of a mess. They are in a letdown season after breaking a 50+ year bowl drought last December. But their starting quarterback, No. 1 running back (who was also the second-leading receiver) and their top wideout are all gone. There is just not anything here to work with. NMSU has moved down (again) and is no longer affiliated with any conference. I think that will lead to a change in motivation for this team, which could barely compete in the Sun Belt. I will go with the more experienced team here.

NFL PRESEASON SELECTIONS
I really like the Browns, Colts and Bucs, but I cut them from my card. It is a long season. Let's keep it a little tighter this week and save our arrows for when the "real" games start next week!
In case you are wondering, I don't think the Eagles care about the preseason at all (whereas the Browns clearly do) and they are likely to again sit their two starting quarterbacks. I think the Bucs are just further along than the Lions, who are breaking in new systems on both sides of the ball. Detroit has actually looked really bad so far this preseason and I think the Bucs are really focused. I also think the Colts are just kind of due after a fluke loss (like the Browns) last week.

1-Unit Play. Take 'Under' 45.0 Tennessee at Pittsburgh (4 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)
I think that people think just because Big Ben and Antonio Brown are going to suit up that the Steelers are going to throw the ball around and score a bunch of points this week. I will be surprised to see the Steelers stars play much at all this week. And instead I like the value on the 'under' in this game because I think the focus will be on the Steelers defense. I know the Steelers quarterbacks threw two pick-sixes. But Pittsburgh still gave up 51 points last week. The coaching staff will definitely use that as motivation. And after ringing up 31 and 34 points in two games I can see the Steelers offense coming off the throttle. Tennessee hasn't been scaring any one with their offense this preseason. And their defense has allowed 30 points per game also. They too are going to be motivated as hell to have a showing. I think this is going to be a boring game. I see both teams putting the focus on where they need

3-Unit Play. Take 'Over' 43.5 San Francisco at Indianapolis (4:30 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)
Note: This is my NFL Preseason Game of the Year.
I think that this is a great spot and we should see both teams get over 20 points. For San Francisco, they have been the No. 1 offense in the NFL this preseason. They are averaging 421.5 yards per game, but they've only turned that into 37 points. I expect them to be much more efficient in this outing. Coach Kyle Shanahan is like his father. His dad was one of the best coaches to bet in the preseason because he saw the utility of it and he really wanted to win. I am sure Kyle is the same way, judging on what I've seen to this point. Shanahan was also a bit critical of his starting quarterback, Jimmy Garoppollo, after their last game down in Houston. I think that will lead to a bit better focus out of Garoppollo and his starting offense. And I absolutely expect to see him for the first half against the Colts. Not just because Shanahan wants him to get the work. But also because second string quarterback C.J. Beathard is out with a foot sprain. It will like be Garappollo and then Nick Mullens, who has been outstanding this preseason, will mop up the second half. For the Colts, this too is a dress rehearsal. They want to get Andrew Luck some reps to get him sharp before the season starts. The guy has missed almost two years of football; he needs the work. Also, the Colts were really, really unlucky in their Monday Night Football game against the Ravens. They lost 20-19 (39 total points) despite the fact that the Colts had two turnovers inside the Baltimore 10-yard line to go with other turnovers and general screw-ups. I don't think that will be the case here. And I can see the Colts being a bit more efficient on offense as well. And when Luck ducks out then Jacoby Brissett is more than capable of moving the ball and putting up points against the 49ers backup defense.
Finally, here is an amazing stat: dating back to last year the Colts have gone 'under' in 10 straight games! That's unreal. You don't see streaks like that in the NFL and that statistical anomaly is due to correct itself.
All of this should lead to a game where both teams play in the 20's and that should help this game get 'over'.

1-Unit Play. Take #276 Miami (Pk) over Baltimore (7 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)
The Ravens were extremely lucky to beat the Colts on Monday Night Football. Now they have to turn around, go back on the road, on a short week, and play off surface in the heat and humidity of Miami. No thanks. This is also Baltimore's fourth preseason game because they played in the HOF game. These guys are done. They are ready for the ?real? season to begin. Baltimore has also won 11 straight NFL preseason games and I don't think that streak is going to continue because it is a bit of an anomaly. Miami has lost both of its preseason games. This is a team feeling some heat. Like the Ravens, the Dolphins coach and quarterback are both playing for their jobs. I think that is going to lead to some increased urgency from this group. The public is just pouring money into the Ravens in this one. About 80 percent of the bets in this game are down on Baltimore, one of the more lopsided of the games on the board. I will go with the other way and look for Miami to get their first win. They need it more.

1-Unit Play. Take 'Over' 43.5 New Orleans at L.A. Chargers (8 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)
Drew Brees is yet to suit up for a preseason game this year. But I think that is going to change this week. Last year these two teams met up and practiced against one another before a Week 2 meeting. Then Brees and Phil Rivers both sat the game out and they played a 13-7 snoozer. But this is Week 3 this year. This is the dress rehearsal. And I expect both guys to log some time. That should lead to points and I can see both teams gearing up in this one.

4 Units - #931 Seattle / #932 Arizona (Over 8.5) 8/25 *8:10 EST
In the last 6 meetings these two have went over the total 5-0-1, and last night was another over with a 6-3 win by Seattle. Both pitchers today have over a 4 ERA, Robbie Ray for the D Backs and LeBlanc for Seattle. The Mariners have struggled against southpaws but Ray is hittable and has a 1.64 WHIP his last 3 starts. AZ looks for some revenge here and in their last 10 games have hit lefties as a team at .321. Both starters are left handed. I see a 6-4, or higher type game here with AZ on top, too chalky to get behind them but I do like some runs, and in Seattle's last 51 Interleague games, all but 14 have went over.

7-Unit Play: Take 908 Brewers -120 over Pirates (7:10 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 25)

We're backing the Brewers on Saturday night with Chacin over Taillon. It's hard to imagine Pittsburgh being able to recover from Friday's incredible loss that included walking a relief pitcher, Jordan Lyles, to load the bases with one out away from a win. The Pirates tied it with two outs in the ninth and went ahead 6-4 in the top of the 15th, but then blew it in the bottom half when hard throwing Clay Holmes walked the bases loaded and then lost on consecutive singles by Erik Kratz and Orlando Arcia. Pittsburgh lost its fourth in a row and is fading fast in the playoff race while Milwaukee has won four of five and currently is in the second wild card spot. The Brewers have won seven of Jhoulys Chacin's last nine starts and he did not allow a run his last two starts in 13 innings pitched. Chacin has allowed only three earned runs in 17 2/3 innings against the Pirates this season. Both pens saw plenty of work last night and if this becomes a battle of the pens, the Brewers is better equiped to handle it. The Milwaukee jinx continues for the Pirates, who have lost 71 of the last 98 meetings at Miller Park. I'm backing the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
