Northwestern +9½ -105 at betonline |

5*Northwestern +9.5 The total is around 38 points. I will almost always take the underdog if getting more than a TD with any NCAAF total below 43 points. The underdog in Northwestern games is on a 12-1-1 run. Michigan State was upset last week and the public is betting on a bounce back effort. This line opened at 6.5 points. Michigan State is 3-9 ATS in their past 12 games as a favorite. At this current number, I'm take the home underdog in this spot. |

Ole Miss -2 -107 at pinnacle |

5*Mississippi Rebels -2 This is a huge spot for the home team knowing they play Alabama next week. The Rebels catch California off a phony 23-17 win against North Texas as 14-point home chalk. California was outgained by 51 yards and have been outgained in two straight. This is the first road game for the Golden Bears outside the Pacific time zone. California has to play a 9:00 AM body clock game in the heat and humidity down south. The Golden Bears play Arizona State next week. Ole Miss has the the talent to win this game by 3 or more points! |

10*Pittsburgh Steelers +7 The San Francisco 49ers return home all fat and happy after two straight road wins and covers. They have been away from home for 9 days as they stayed on the East Coast after winning at Tampa Bay. The Steelers showed me a lot in losing by 2 points after Big Ben went down. We get a fired-up team getting 7 points, against a team that is a tad overrated after defeating two teams that are 1-3 combined. Mason Rudolph has a full week to prepare as the starting QB. The team should be energized after trading for Minkah Fitzpatrick who is an upgrade at Safety. Love the Steelers in this upset maker! |

NFL | Sep 22, 2019 Panthers vs Cardinals |
Cardinals +2½ +100 at 5Dimes |

4*Arizona Cardinals +2.5 Cam Newton is in a walking boot. I'm hearing he's very doubtful to play this week. That means undrafted free agent Kyle Allen will get the start. Ugh. Even if Cam plays he won't be able to run the offense the way Ron Rivera and company are accustomed to. No run-pass option for sure which use to be the staple of the Panthers' offense. Arizona is playing extremely hard and this line will reopen at Arizona -1.5 so get down ASAP. |

5*Indianapolis Colts -1.5 The public is hammering the Falcons based on what they saw last Sunday night on NBC. The Falcons were very fortunate to win that game. Atlanta is much better at home than on the road. Indianapolis has covered two straight road games to start the season after everyone was giving up on them after Andrew Luck's sudden retirement. The Colts are well-coached and have lots of talent on both sides of the ball including a Top 5 offensive line. The Falcons have cluster injuries (at least two starters out) on their offensive line which came into the season ranked #22 by Pro Football Focus. The Colts defense has recorded eight sacks while the Falcons O'line has allowed five sacks. The Colts went 0-2 at home during the preseason despite outgaining both opponents by a combined 215 yards. The Colts stud linebacker Darius Leonard is questionable with a concussion. I like the Colts with or without Darius minus the small number! |
