Play on: OVER 48 -115

In this ACC clash, the total has fallen two points to 48.5. Not certain I agree for these reasons. The average total score of a Virginia game is 47 total points, which means we are basically right there. The average total score of a Pittsburgh contest is 60.6. The Panthers concede over 32 PPG, thus, it is within reason to surmise the Cavaliers would score more than their average of 28 points and if they reach at least 30 or more, we should have an OVER play. My numbers project a low 50's outcome.

Play on: OVER 48 -105

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach CFL Game #651 Friday Free Pick OVER the total in Ottawa Redblacks vs Toronto Argonauts @ 7:30 ET - The Redblacks are already locked into post-season position. The Argonauts are already officially out of the post-season picture. The result here is a game in which neither team has anything to play for. As a result, I just don't expect to see a lot of defensive intensity here. As for the weather, the showers during the day are expected to be finished by time this one kicks off. It will be chilly of course but not brutally cold and winds will be light. That said, I look for both offenses to put up some solid points against defenses that just are not going to have a fire lit under them for this truly meaningless game. We have a low total to work with here considering each of the last 3 meetings have totaled over 50 points. Also, the over is 6-2 in Toronto's last 8 games. The over is 8-3 the last 11 times the Argos have been off a loss in divisional action. The over is 16-7 in the Redblacks last 23 Friday games. The result per all of the above? Plenty of points. Free Pick Friday on OVER the total in Ottawa in this match-up. Best of luck, Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach

Play - Pitt Panthers (Game 315).
Edges - Panthers: 3-1-1 ATS in this series; and 3-1-1 ATS as weekday road dogs … Cavaliers: 1-4 ATS weekday; and 1-4 ATS in the second of three straight home games … With the Panthers a half-game back of the Cavs for the top spot in the ACC Coastal division, we recommend a 1* play on Pittsburgh. Thank you and good luck as always.

10* FREE NCAAF PICK (Virginia -7.5)
I'll take my chances with Virginia covering at home over Pittsburgh. I just think the atmosphere is going to be electric at Scott Stadium under the lights on Friday. Virginia is ranked in the Top 25 for the first time since 2011. I believe that home field edge along with how the Cavaliers matchup with Pitt, given them a really good shot at winning here by double-digits.
I just have a hard time trusting this Pittsburgh defense to make enough plays to keep them in the game. Sure they got the win last time out, but they let Duke quarterback, Daniel Jones, throw for 396 yards and 4 scores. They also let Deon Jackson rack up a school-record 403 all-purpose yards.
That’s not the first time the defense has been exposed. They gave up 568 yards and 45 points to UCF, 486 yards and 38 points to North Carolina and 37 points and 372 yards to Syracuse. The Panthers come into this game ranked 96th in the country against the run (185.5 ypg) and 94th against the pass (250.5 ypg).
I know Virginia’s offense is limited, but this is a defense they can have some fun against. Not to mention they will be able to play to their liking and really dominate the time of possession. If the defense does their job, this Pittsburgh defense could crumble in the 2nd half.
This is an ideal matchup for the Cavaliers defense, which is ranked 20th in the country against the run, giving up just 113.0 ypg. The Panthers’ offense relies heavily on their ability to run the football. Pittsburgh ranks 22nd in rushing (227.9 ypg) compared to 121st in passing (146.4 ypg). The run game hasn’t been nearly as effective on the road, where they only average 151 ypg and 4.6 yards/carry. With the energy the Virginia defense will get from the home crowd, hard to see them letting Pittsburgh run all over them.
It’s also worth noting that the Panthers are a mere 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games after playing a contest where the defense allowed 575 or more total yards. Virginia is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 and a perfect 5-0 ATS in their last 5 at home. Give me the Cavaliers -7.5!

1* Free Sharp Play on Virginia -7½ -103
My money is on Virginia to cover the big spread at home against the Panthers. The Cavaliers are one of the big surprise teams of 2018, as no one thought Virginia would be leading the ACC Coastal in November. It started with that upset win at home over Miami. They then won 28-14 at Duke and beat UNC 31-21 at home. Pitt won last time out at home vs Duke 54-45. It's the 4th time in the last 5 games that the Panthers have allowed 37 or more points. Virginia will put up points at home and I don't know that Pitt will be able to have the kind of success needed to keep pace, as their strength is running the ball, which plays right into the hands of the Cavaliers defense. Bet Virginia -7.5!

Play on: Nets +4½ -105 at Bovada

Dave’s Friday Free Play:
1* on Brooklyn Nets +4.5
The Key: The Houston Rockets just aren’t the same without James Harden. They are just 1-5 SU & 1-5 ATS this season, and Harden has missed the last few games. The results have not been good as they lost 3 straight home games to the Jazz (by 11), the Clippers (by 20) and the Blazers (by 19). They won’t magically get it together against the Nets tonight. They should not even be favored in this game. The Rockets are 3-15 ATS in their last 18 vs. NBA Atlantic Division teams. The Nets are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. Western Conference games. The Nets are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings. Take Brooklyn.

NCAA-F | Western Kentucky vs Middle Tennessee State
Play on: Middle Tennessee State -13½ -105 at 5Dimes

This one should be a huge blowout with Western Kentucky being 1-7 this season. The Hilltoppers have struggled on defense and are averaging just 19.8 points per game. This team has lost two of their last three by 20 points or more with the third loss being the wild one against ODU. They have scored less then 20 points in four of their last six. MTSU has won two straight and four of their last five. They busted out last week against ODU winning 51-17 on the road. Brent Stockstill is still under center and he's been great for them. Quite simply, the Blue Raiders have the better offense and a good enough defense to hold WKU down. I think this one gets ugly.
