4 for 4 - NFL & CFB

We went 5-3 last week. That's two straight winning weeks and we're looking to keep it going. Are the sportsbooks panicking yet?

Not a bad week last week. We went 5-3 to finish up +2.6 units. We’re 9-5 in the past two weeks for a total of +4.4 units.

Something in the air has us feeling like we’re going to threepeat.

But please, remember to bet responsibly. Don’t mistake us for wizards.

If you have a gambling problem, please seek help from a professional organization more suited to assist than we are.

Sharp Shots for the Weekend

College Football

Ohio State (-3) at. Oregon -115 on Caesars

#2 Ohio State will visit #3 Oregon tomorrow in a massive Big Ten matchup. Oregon has shown some weakness this year, and we think Ohio State will handle them by more than 3 points.

Penn State (-3.5) at. USC -110 on Draftkings

Undefeated, #4 Penn State will travel to LA to take on 3-2 USC this weekend. This line almost feels too good to be true.

Minnesota (-4) at. UCLA -108 on Draftkings

UCLA has been through a gauntlet so far this season - playing a ranked team in each of their last 4 weeks. They’ve also picked up a loss in each of their last 4 weeks.

Their lone win of the season was a 16-13 victory over Hawaii. We think Minnesota should be able to take care of business this weekend and lay the 4 points.

Kansas State (-3) at Colorado -120 on Caesars

Colorado is coming off a few solid wins before hosting #18 Kansas State tomorrow. They’ve shown some weakness on the defensive side of the ball this year we think Kansas State will be able to exploit.

NFL

Ravens RB Derrick Henry OVER 79.5 Rushing Yards -135 on ESPN Bet

Derrick Henry has hit this mark in 4/5 games this season. He’ll be matching up with a less-than-stellar Commanders run defense that is yielding 130 rush yards per game.

There’s always a risk Lamar gets a greater share of touches, but we’re riding with Henry’s hot hand this week.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs OVER 66.5 Rushing Yards -114 on Fanduel

The Packers will be facing the Arizona Cardinals at home this week. Just one week after a huge Cardinals win against the 49ers.

The Cardinals have one of the worst rush defenses in the league through five weeks - yielding 147.8 yards per game on the ground. Josh Jacobs is averaging around 80-yards per game and has hit 66.5 in 3/5 games so far this year.

Factoring in Jordan Love’s lack of rushing attempts, we like Josh Jacobs to hit over 66.5 in this one.

Jets RB Breece Hall UNDER 12.5 Rush Attempts -110 on Draftkings

This one’s a gamble. The Jets have just fired their head coach and demoted OC Nathanial Hackett from his play calling responsibilities.

The man taking his place is Todd Downing - the Jets Passing Game Coordinator. In a divisional game against a tough Bills team where the Jets could find themselves down early, we think the Passing Game Coordinator will feel a little more comfortable putting the ball in Aaron Rodgers’ hands.

Bears WR Keenan Allen OVER 44.5 Receiving Yards -120 on ESPN Bet

Keenan Allen hasn’t hit this mark yet this season. He’s struggled to get the same utilization he used to see in LA.

But against an abysmal Jaguars pass defense, giving up nearly 300 yards per game in the air? Lock in 44.5 yards.
