Western Kentucky-UTSA UNDER 72.5

Yeah, models have become en vogue in recent years. Some are worthless, but a pro gambler I’ve known for years gave me life-changing info when he told me which public ones are and are not worth a shizzle. The best power ratings have the UNDER as 8.6 percent edge and a power line of 66.7. That is a strong variance, especially this late in year. Our top simulator has it going under 62 percent of the time, with 68 points projected. 

Despite the high total, UTSA does hold teams to .4 yards per rush below their normal average while WKU keeps opponents to .4 yards per rush, .3 yards per pass, and .2 yards per play below what they normally get. It’s never over until it’s under, so we may have to sweat it out. But it stays under. 

Free winner from Joe Duffy’s Picks. 

CLEMSON -28 GA Tech

Look for Clemson to leave offensive starters in a long time after scoring just three in their only game against Power 5 team. Tech lost to

Huge momentum angle based on teams off rout wins. Yes, Tech also off 28-point win, but that’s a bit short of our threshold and it is even better if team we are betting on is a big home favorite. Plus, though if Clemson runs the table, they are still very likely in the playoffs, it’s too early to assume. Clemson already in style points territory. 

Northern Illinois. Of course, Clemson lost a ton from last year on offense, but they are infinitely better and have reasons to run it up.

Washington-Miami UNDER 7.5 (Gray-Cabrera)

This is the lowest total either team has seen recently and easily Josiah Gray’s lowest total of the year. Sounds like an easy over, right? Nope. 

The Nats last seven games have seen six totals of 9 or more, the other 8.5. Miami has had five straight of 8.5 or more. Angle that compares the current total to recent ones and uses that knowledge against them goes under 3129-2412-284. Comparing current total to season average goes under 2020-1536-221. 

Josiah Gray hasn’t had a total of less than 8.5 all year. But when a pitcher has a total less than previous starts, it goes under 3155-2392-246. Several combo angles, but one that combines pitcher and team ones goes under 424-257-35 including 66-28-1 this season. 

Orioles 5-32 -24.1 units off 4 straight losses 

Rockies 4-27 -24.4 units road versus opponent averaging .6 or fewer errors per game 

Marlins 9-33 -21.5 units after scoring 2 or fewer runs

MLB free pick from Joe Duffy.

ARIZONA (GILBERT +172) Colorado (Gomber) 

Anti-splits angle in which we go with road team with much worse away winning percentage than the home team home winning percentage is +154.64. Arizona 6-1 the last seven. Yes, they are were at home, but this is a bad team, clearly not “quitting” as some people foolishly think and carrying momentum making our super system stronger. They were dogs of 140 or more in every game in that seven game stretch. They are hitting a whopping .366 last seven games with an .855 OPS. Our power line says Arizona should only be getting 140, which is a 3.8 percent edge.

KANSAS CITY (MINOR +141) St. Louis (Wainwright)

Many of our angles say when the oddsmakers say it is their most winnable game in a while to go with what the oddsmakers are telling you. Yes, Royals have pulled off consecutive upsets, but six straight games they’ve been underdogs of 180 or more and eight straight of 155 or more. An angle that says to go with underdogs in a game in which the oddsmakers give them the most respect in recent play is 271-202 for 98.21 and an ROI of 20.6. Teams off consecutive wins of 180 or more are 45-42 +31.92 units and 36.3 ROI as long as they are not home dogs. Accuscore has KC +7.1 percent value.
