Texas Rangers vs Los Angeles Angels
Take: Texas Rangers -121
*3 Star MLB Play of Day* The Texas Rangers dropped a game in the AL West standings last night after losing 6-5 to the Angels. That was a big loss as it gave Oakland the lead once again in the AL West. The Rangers had won seven in a row against the Angels before last night. The Angels have been playing better of late, but this game means much more to the Rangers. Texas has Derek Holland on the mound here, and Holland has been very underrated this year. He has an ERA of 2.97 on the road this season. Garrett Richards pitches for the Angels here, and he has been very inconsistent. The Rangers are 6-0 in Holland's last 6 starts on 4 days of rest. The Rangers are 5-0 in Holland's last 5 starts against the Angels. The Angels are 0-4 in Richards' last 4 starts against the Rangers. A 15-0 angle backs this play. Take Texas.

double-dime bet - 352 Auburn -10.5 (-110) vs 351 Arkansas St.
Auburn was a bit shaky last week in coach Malzahn's head coaching debut as the Tigers limped past Washington State 31-24. They should be primed for a much better effort this week as they face the team from whom they hired away Malzahn following last season. Arkansas State was 10-3 last season, winning 8 straight to end the season including a Bowl win over Kent State. They did step up in class and stumble in losses at Oregon and Nebraska. Arguably Auburn's talent is not at the level of Oregon's but is considered comparable to the Huskers' (who defeated Arky State 42-13). State is breaking in a new QB but it's hard to glean much from their 62-11 home win last week over Arkansas Pine Bluff, one of the weakest FCS programs. Auburn is bigger, stronger and faster and the Tigers have the added edge of having a coach familiar with the personnel on both teams (Malzahn was offensive coordinator of Auburn's 2010 BCS Title team). And although there might be some sentiment that Malzahn won't just lay it on to his former team, it's not like the Tigers have to win by 40 to cover the impost. Especially given the tightness of last week's win, even a 14-17 point lead here cannot be considered all that safe.
Texas fell asleep for the 1st 2 quarters of their opener vs NM state and still after trailing 7-0 for the entire 1st half, Texas went on to score 56 unanswered points and a school record 715 yards of total offense in the 56-7 win. So what makes BYU so special? NOTHING!
Bottom Line: BYU can hang around for a half, maybe, but ultimately Texas will catch fire and it will be lights out for BYU,
