This is a 5* play on Boise State.

The Broncos held BYU to just 111 yards rushing in a 26-17 upset win at Provo last week. They will have their hands full with Air Force and their power running game, but they might be able to put this game out of reach with their passing game. Air Force hasn't seen many quality QBs this season, but they were lit up for 448 yards by Logan Booner of Utah State. That might bode well for Hank Bachmeier who beat the Falcons at home 30-19 as a freshman in 2019. The Broncos are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite, and they are 4-0 ATS in their last four versus the Falcons.

This is a 10* play on Over.

It's no secret that scoring is down in the CFL this season, and perhaps that can be explained by almost a two year layoff. The bookmakers have been offering lower numbers every week, and I think this presents an opportunity to capitalize on an over-correction. Here in this game both QBs are former league MVPs (MOP). Both teams come in averaging over 23 points per game, even though both these star QBs missed time early in the season. This is by far the lowest total in the previous 10 head to head meetings between these teams, and the average total was over 50.

This is an 8* play on Atlanta.

The Braves will be an underdog in Game 1 at home versus LA, and I think this is a let down spot for the Dodgers after their narrow win in Game 5 at San Francisco.

Max Fried will toe the slab for Atlanta, and he's been as hot as any pitcher in baseball the last few months. He's 3-0 with a 1.29 ERA in his last five starts.

The Dodgers have yet to list a starter, and their rotation is being held togther by chewing gum and duct tape at this point.

The Braves are 11-5 in their last 16 playoff games, and they are 7-2 in their last nine playoff home games.

This is an 8* play on WPG.

The Jets lost their season opener on the road at The Duck Pond, and they will be a favorite tonight at the Shark Tank. Having already played a game could be an advantage here against the Sharks in their season opener. The Jets are 7-3 in their last 10 games playing on 2 days rest, and they are 4-0 in the last four meetings in San Jose. The Sharks are 17-35 in their last 52 games as an underdog, and they are 3-14 in their last 17 overall. They have lost four of their last five home games.

This is a 5* play on Toronto.

The Leafs looked pretty good in a 2-1 win over Montreal in their season opener, and they will be a big favorite at home versus Ottawa tonight. The Sens have given Toronto trouble in recent meetings, but they are 1-6 in the last seven meetings in Toronto. The Senators are 20-60 in their last 80 road games, and they are 20-59 in their last 79 games as a road underdog. Toronto lost to Ottawa in the second game of a back to back coming off their win over Montreal, but the Senators are 18-38 in their last 56 games following a win. You gotta love the Leafs to win big in this revenge spot.

This is an 8* play on MTL.

The Habs turned in an impressive effort in a 2-1 loss at Toronto to start the season, but their second game at Buffalo was not as competitive. It's still early in the season, but the Habs should be desperate to avoid a third straight loss when they take on New York tonight. The Rangers are 8-17 in the last 25 meetings in Montreal. The Canadiens are 6-2 in their last eight home games, and they are 10-4 in their last 14 games playing on 1 days rest.

This is a 5* play on Minnesota.

Nebraska has played some pretty good games this season, but they continue to come out on the wrong side of close games. They lost by three points at home versus Michigan last week, just two weeks after they lost to Michigan State by three points. Even though Minnesota has injury concerns, I am not sure you can expect the Huskers to cover 4.5 points on the road. The Golden Gophers are 31-15-5 ATS in their last 51 games as an underdog. The home team has covered in four of the last five head to head meetings.

This is a 5* play on Michigan State.

Are the Spartans for real? You can bet your ass they are! They come in ranked in the Top 10, with a 5-0 record that includes wins over Nebraska, Rutgers and Northwestern. Indiana started the season ranked in the Top 25, but starting QB Michael Penix Jr. struggled throwing almost twice as many picks as TDs. He's questionable to play today, and we could see backup QB Jack Tuttle. The Spartans are 6-0 ATS in their last six games as a road favorite, and the Hoosiers are 3-10-1 ATS in their last 14 games as a home underdog.

This is a 5* play on Texas.

The Longhorns are coming off a heartbreaking loss to Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry game, after leading 38-20 at halftime. Oklahoma scored 25 points in the fourth quarter to complete the comeback. The good news for Texas is that they likely don't have to worry about Oklahoma State coming roaring back with 25 fourth quarter points. The Cowboys are lucky if their offense can score 25 points in an entire game. Oklahoma State ranks 166th nationally scoring just over 25 points per game. I like Texas to end the Cowboys unbeaten run.
