3-Unit Play. #343. Take Charlotte +27.5 over Temple (Saturday @ 12pm est)
Charlotte has been looking forward to this game after being blownout last year and we like them here early on Saturday with complete focus coming into this contest. Charlotte lost 3-37 last year and this is a team that was only a 1.5 point underdog and underperformed against EMU in their last game. Look for Charlotte to bounce-back here as they were looking ahead last week and this game is far more important to them than Temple who will be going through the motions especially Saturday @ 12pm.


7-Unit Play. #320. Take Virginia Tech -12.5 over East Carolina (Saturday @ 12:30pm est)
We love Virginia Tech and their young coach who looks for blowouts. See how this team responded last week by blowing out Boston College when they were simply 6.5 point favorites. It says a lot about how this program wants to play and bounce-back. Combine that with the fact they played much better against Tennessee than the score shows and you have a very motivated and talented Virginia Tech team who wants to blowout a team who beat them last year. Va Tech is highly talented on the offensive end and with East Carolina still reeling from the near defeat of South Carolina, this is a great public fade as they run into a highly focusd Virginia Tech team. Virginia Tech understands that they can make some headlines by blowing this team out of the water and hence have back to back big weeks and big wins which will send a notation to the rest of the country that this team can indeed put up some points and after pitching a shutout last week, look for this defense to build on their success too. Va Tech likely going away.


3-Unit Play. #311. Take Central Michigan -3.5 over Virginia (Saturday @ 12:30pm est)
Central Michigan's coach battled cancer recently and now after that treatment, this team has rallied behind him. This team returns a ton of talent especially on the offensive side of the ball and this team has been playing fantastic this season. With some revenge to dish out to Virginia and the fact this team is going to be looking forward to playing this game, we like Central Michigan to get it done here on the road.


3-Unit Play. #346. Take North Carolina -7 over Pittsburgh (Saturday @ 3:30pm est)
North Carolina understands they need a big win against a quality opponent and consequently that is here against Pittsburgh who is still hung over from the tough loss to Oklahoma State. Pitt's defensive backs are a bit porous and UNC has a fantastic passing game that is likely to take advantage of that. Combine that with the fact if Pitt struggled against Penn State's offense, they will have their hands full against UNC. We like UNC in a bit of a blowout.


3-Unit Play. #352. Take Marshall +27 over Louisville (Saturday @ 8pm est) (You can find at MGM and Sportsbook)
Louisville at some point has to have a let down and we like them here to take the public down on primetime television. Marshall could not have played worse last week and was a heavy favorite and was blown out of the water and was likely looking ahead to this game. Louisville also has Clemson on deck as well mind you. Look for Marshall to have a solid bounce-back here, hang tough, this is a good public fade and Louisville to be looking ahead to Clemson as well. You are welcome to wait on this line as it will jump quite a bit by gametime.


3-Unit Play. #315. Take Over 54.0 Central Florida vs. Florida International (Saturday @ 7pm est) (Currently 53.5 at CG Tech and MGM Mirage)
Long story short here you have two teams whose offenses have not produced much in the early going of the season. Last time they met, FIU hung tough and lost by just 1 point and this is a revenge game for them. The UCF defnese will still be hungover from nearly beating Maryland but falling just short and we like FIU to be a fantastic offensive underdog and send this game over the posted total. FIU hangs tough and both these offenses finally break out this week.

WAYNE ROOT

No Limit--Northwestern +
---------------
Perfect Play--Auburn +
It is a battle of coaches on the hot seat as LSU head coach Les Miles and Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn are needing a huge statement win and NOW. QB has always been the problem for LSU. Today's QB for LSU, Danny Etling has taken the starting position away from the ineffective Brandon Harris, and in his first start, was decent. The Auburn defense has kept it in both losses this season, and will try to force Etling to beat them with his arm. Defensive linemen Carl Lawson and Marlon Davidson will try to plug the holes Deshaun Davis and the linebacker corps look to stop superstar RB Leonard Fournette. Auburn' stunning game should be able to do all that is needed to secure the win. Neither offenses will put on a show. This game is all low scoring defense. Auburn’s greatest strength looks as if it will be their defense this year, especially at cornerback where they feature some great talent. This game comes down to the +3 and THE HOOK. Look for that 24-21 final and one coach possibly getting the boot on Sunday. They don't mess around in the SEC with their football.
--------------
Inner Circle--Tennessee -

Last year, Florida won coming back from a 13-point deficit with 14 points in the final four minutes. Don't think the Volunteers have forgotten. College revenge games are huge. This game is so big that the median ticket price on Vivid Seats was $319. Tennessee's QB Joshua Dobbs is 45 of 75 for 486 yards and six touchdowns and has rushed for 161 yards and three scores. Additionally, the senior is completing 60 percent of his throws. For the visitor, Florida is starting a new quarterback Austin Appleby that struggled during his stint as a starter at Purdue. It’s never a positive when you have to go into a big game with a backup quarterback, and it’s doubly bad when you have to go into a big game with a guy who couldn’t cut it at Purdue. But this game is more than two QB's going nowhere after graduating. Tennessee is more talented, they’ve got the experience, and they’re at home in one of the program’s biggest games in a long, long time. The Florida defense hasn’t faced a real offense yet, but it’s been beyond terrific so far destroying UMass, Kentucky and North Texas. Florida has yet to break a sweat and hasn’t dealt with any adversity. Derek Barnett, Tennessee’s All-American pass rusher lived in Ohio’s backfield last Saturday. He was credited with just a pair of hurries, but he impacted way more plays than that and will disrupt the Florida offense. Look for run first game plan for the Gators. They won't chance many throws with Appleby. Butch Jones will have his team ready for a chance to finally break that 11 game losing streak. This is the Volunteers chance to rocket into the next dimension and remain undefeated and move into the talk of winning the SEC East. The loss of Gators starting QB Luke Del Rio last Saturday is a setback that will be hard to overcome.

Pinnacle--UCLA + ***PAC 12 Game of Year

Meet the #1 pick in the 2018 NFL Draft; Josh Rosen. UCLA sophomore Josh Rosen, one of the top NFL quarterback prospects in the nation, has thrown for 917 yards, with four touchdowns and looks to crush Stanford's defense in an all everything of importance PAC 12 game. But this game must have the defensive effort like last weeks. UCLA held BYU to 23 yards on 25 rushes, including four sacks. That's a standout performance against running back Jamaal Williams and dual-threat quarterback Taysom Hill.
Stanford has this years All-America Christian McCaffrey who is almost unstoppable at times. He rushes, catches passes out of the backfield and handles kickoffs like no other. At some point, Stanford will have to throw the ball to win, and that’s going to be a problem if the first two games are any indication. Additionally a potential difference-maker in this year's matchup is UCLA defensive tackle Eddie Vanderdoes, a 325-pound run-stuffer who missed last year's game after suffering a torn ACL in the opener. He and 325-pound defensive lineman Eli Ankou have the kind of beef needed to counter Stanford's power attack. If QB Rosen and UCLA can come out roaring and put up a few early points, and then rely on a secondary that’s been solid so far, McCaffrey can get his yards and his moments, but they won’t be enough. UCLA is 13-7 against ranked opponents under Mora, including a 4-1 mark in each of the past two seasons. This is the game Stanford’s lack of a passing game gets exposed, and this is where Josh Rosen carries the team on his back and prepares the nation of what a great QB looks like. From a point spread tip, always bet the original favorite. UCLA opened up -1 by the oddsmakers. The public (85%+) pushed the line to Stanford -3. Bet the Vegas oddsmakers; not the public.

STRIKE POINT SPORTS

College Plays:
7-Unit Play. Take #345 Pittsburgh (+7) over North Carolina (3:30 p.m., Saturday, September 24)
Pittsburgh and North Carolina finished first and second respectively in the Coastal Divison last season and NC gave eventual National Champion runner-up Clemson all they could handle and then some in the ACC title game, so these two are no strangers to one another. The Heels won last years matchup 26-19 and with both teams at 2-1 this could be a similar outcome for the Panthers unless they get a few of the bounces to go their way this season. Going into Chapel Hill has been no easy task as the Tar Heels have won eight straight and this won should make it nine. Both teams are tough to stop offensively if they get going in the right direction but the biggest test will be for the North Carolina defense. The shaky defense in Chapel Hill is their biggest weakness so look for John Connor and company to have big holes early and often. With teams this similar it is hard to give a touchdown so for that reason the clear pick is the Panthers but do not be shocked in they pull the upset in this one. Turnovers will tell the story and if Pitt can avoid costly ones they will be the winners in this ACC slugfest.

6-Unit Play. Take #304 Georgia Tech (+9.5) over Clemson (7:30 p.m., Thursday, September 22)
After the demolition by Louisville over Florida State last weekend, Clemson is on a collision course with the suddenly unstoppable Cardinals but they better not overlook this hard-nosed Georgia Tech team. The rambling wreck are 3-0 (so are the Tigers) and come into this ACC tilt with a ton of momentum after taking down Vanderbilt in impressive fashion last week 38-7. The Yellow Jackets rely on their run game to make them buzz and are averaging 257.3 yards per game on the ground in their first three games. They have not beaten any giants but last weeks win over Vandy (SEC) and two easy wins over Boston College and Mercer has them thinking upset in this primetime kickoff. Clemson has not looked the part so far and if they want back in the playoffs they better start clicking on all cylinders. They have not won in Bobby Dodd Stadium since 2003 and all everything quarterback Deshaun Watson tore up his knee last time they came to Atlanta. This is most likely a win for the Tigers but the Jackets will give them all they can handle and could shake up the College Football landscape with a win. Look for Clemson to pull it out late 24-22 so take the points.

3-Unit Play. Take #364 Texas A&M (-6) over Arkansas (9 p.m., Saturday, September 24)
Texas A&M have one of the better defensive fronts in the nation (Daeshon Hall and Myles Garrett) and that seems to be most of what people have been talking about through three weeks of the season. What they should be taking notice of is the way that Trevor Knight has been stearing the offense. He is not flashy and has been to inconsistent at times but he really stepped up last week against Auburn and finished with 247 yards passing and just over forty rushing (42) so he seems to be better when the pressure in on him. The pressure will be on him for sure and the razorbacks are riding a high that has lasted two weeks after taking down TCU in week 2 so their may be a bit of a hangover in Arlington for Justin Allen and company. This should be an entertaining battle with two undefeated teams squarring off but the Aggies defense and the play of Knight should be enough for A&M to cover. Go ahead and lay the points as Texas A&M gets the win 33-20.

ALLEN EASTMAN

6-Unit Play. Take #317 Army (-14) over Buffalo (7 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 24)
Army is 3-0 this season both SU and ATS. This is a very improved team. They are focused on making it to their first bowl game since 2010 and just their second bowl game in the last 20 years. This is a veteran team and they are playing great right now. All three of their wins have been by blowouts. They won at Temple by 15, beat Rice by 17, and then won at UTEP by 42. That is two blowout road wins and their average victory margin is almost 25 points per game. Buffalo has lost five straight games going back to last year, both SU and ATS. They were blown out at Nevada last week and are 0-2 at home this year. They lost at home to Albany as a 21-point favorite! The Bulls are just 8-20 ATS against teams that are over .500. The Black Knights are 4-1 ATS in their last five games against teams from the MAC. They have also covered six straight games in September. I think that this one will be all Army. Lay the points.

3-Unit Play. Take #352 Marshall (+27) over Louisville (8 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 24)
I think that this is a great spot for the underdog. This is a very sharp situation. Marshall is a very good team from a middle of the pack conference. I think that they will be able to compete at home against Louisville. It is not often that a team like Marshall gets to host a Top 5 opponent. This will be one of their biggest games of the year. It is the opposite for Louisville. The Cardinals are coming off an enormous blowout win over Florida State last week. That game was at home and was an early start and Marshall won it 63-20! And next week Louisville has another big game at Clemson. I do not think that they will be focusing on this game at all. That will allow Marshall to hang around in this one and they will make these points hold up. The public is all over Louisville but I dno't see them covering here.

4-Unit Play. Take #403 Stanford (-3) over UCLA (8 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 24)
I really like the value in this one. Stanford is a Top 10 team that is among the most consistent teams in the country. The Cardinal have also absolutely dominated this series. Stanford is 8-0 SU and 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings! Most of these games have been total blowouts for Stanford, including last year's 56-35 home victory. Stanford has pounded Kanas State and USC in its two games. This will be more of the same. UCLA struggled in wins over BYU and UNLV and they lost and didn't play well at Texas A&M. The favorite is 6-2 ATS the last eight times these teams have played. Stanford has played great at Berkley. They are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games at UCLA. The Bruins are 0-5 ATS in their last five games and 1-6 ATS in their last seven home games. Stanford has been an incredible moneymaker! They are an amazing 51-24 ATS in their last 75 games and 37-16 ATS in their last 53 Pac-12 games. Stanford is 5-1 ATS on the road and 9-3 ATS against teams that are over .500. I will lay the short number.

3-Unit Play. Take #336 West Virginia (-7) over BYU (3:30 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 24)
The Mountaineers are coming off a bye week. They have been focused on this game for two weeks and I expect the Mountaineers to be ready to play. They beat Missouri by 15 in the opener. BYU has already played three games. All three were extremely tough games against Pac-12 teams! The Cougars won the opener 18-16 over Arizona, they lost the Holy War to Utah 20-19, and they lost a tough one to UCLA 17-14 at home last week. Now the Cougars have to go all the way to Landover, Md. to face an unfamiliar opponent. BYU has a bit of a quarterback controversy right now. I think if they struggle early this week there could be a change. Skyler Howard has been very good in his two games for the Mountaineers and I think that they will take advantage of their home field edge. The Cougars are just 8-20 in their last 28 games in the Eastern Time Zone and just 1-4 ATS in their last five neutral site games. WVU has much shorter travel and is healthier. Go with the Mountaineers.

MIKE DAVIS

4-Unit Play. Take #381 South Carolina +2.5 over Kentucky (Saturday, September 24th at 7:30 p.m.)
Kentucky should not be favored over any school that plays big time college football. They did beat New Mexico State last week. Haha, I said big time college football. But they even allowed them to score 42 points. In three games, they have allowed a total of 131 points. Wow. They don't play with much emotion and they simply don't have a lot of talent defensively. They will face a defense that can play with emotion and has some talent. South Carolina has had a tough schedule so far this year but I really look for them to unload on the Wildcats this Saturday night. As mentioned, UK plays zero defense and this South Carolina offense will look to finally put up some big points. They have played some good defenses so far this season but that won't be the case Saturday night. Kentucky will have problems with the athleticism of the Gamecocks' defense. I look for UK to turn the ball over quite a bit and this could be one of the last games Stoops coaches at Kentucky. It just isn't working and it will be ugly Saturday night.
Take South Carolina
