Taking TEXAS. Right off the bat the Cowboys have won the last 2 games. So even though this Texas rolling out the SEC, I think they have some added motivation to knock off Oklahoma State. Now, that being said. I am not loving the line moving up to over 2 TDs now. I guess dropping a 57 spot on a team really erases any doubts about how you have limped through the previous 3 weeks letting teams hang around. I've said since August I thought Texas could win the whole thing. The defense is there. No better time to shine. Ah the Cowboys. Had these guys left for dead and they change QBs during their bye week and promptly run off 5 straight wins and 7 of 8. Wow. I thought Gundy would retire after a 5 win season. Big 12 Championship Game. Unreal. Defense though an issue for me with Oklahoma State. 34-30 last 2 games to BYU and Houston. Houston just fired their coach and BYU ended the season with 5 straight losses going 2-7 in Big 12 play. Texas needs to stop the run. Ewers needs keep improving. Sark needs this win like a fish needs water. 4* Money Maker TEXAS LONGHORNS

Taking GEORGIA. 29 straight for the Champs with their last loss to this Alabama bunch in the 2021 SEC Championship Game. I am not going to really overthink things here. George offense is very good. Alabama defense has shown it's flaws. Yes. Tide with 10 straight wins since that Texas loss. But. We saw them scuffle 17-3 at South Florida. We saw them down 7-6 at half vs Ole Miss. Down 17-10 on the road at A&M. A 24-21 win vs Arkansas. Down 20-7 to the Vols at home. Outlasting LSU. The miracle vs Auburn. We heard the early talk of a lack luster Georgia team. They have pretty much put that to sleep. Don't make a big deal out of a 31-23 win over Georgia Tech. That games 31-13 with the Bulldogs going through the motions. Nothing like Alabama. Tide defense just not there for me to think they slow down George. 4* Money Maker GEORGIA BULLDOGS

Taking the TOLEDO ROCKETS here. Uh. Yeah. This is a tough one. These guys just always find a way to not cover games. And that is not helpful when you are favored in 12 of your 13 games. Now - they are usually laying close to 20 vs bottom level MAC teams. I want to say that a good sign is them covering 4 of their last 5. They won the MAC Championship Game last year 17-7 vs Ohio. Haven't been repeat champs in over a decade (NIU). The fact this line opened as high as it did makes me like this even more though. Only time the Redhawks were dogs like this - they won! +14 vs Cincinnati 31-24.. +7.5 at Ohio - Winner 30-16. Their 2 blemishes on the year. Opening night at the Miami Hurricanes (We had Miami O there, loser +16) and a 21-17 road loss getting 3 from these Rockets. Down 21-3 at half, they scored 14 in the 3rd but that was it. And yet - a big line like this? Is it because Miami Ohio blocked a FG with a minute to go to knock off Ball State? More likely it is their QB situation. The defense is a good unit for Miami O. I  might be looking towards an under here also, as Toledo will want to pound the ball with their good run attack. That should be enough to push the Rockets to a double digit victory this afternoon. 4* Money Maker TOLEDO

Taking the PANTHERS. I am not a lover of Carolina, but there is not a chance I lay points with Tampa. Panthers have been flat out awful on offense. This is just one of those spots where I have to hold my nose and play the ugly dog. 10-10-13-13-15 points for them. Yet Tampa can't be favored by at least a TD? At least this team looks like it can win an NFL game twice a month. I won't be shocked if Carolina wins outright. Something just screams to be to grab Panthers. 4* Money Maker CAROLINA PANTHERS

4* Total Money UNDER Chargers/ Patriots

  Taking the COLTS. I do like the Titans coach. But Indy just seems to be in a groove right now. Only time these guys haven't score at least 20 was when they played in England. So we know the Colts will score here. Will the Titans? They have been know to explode at home at times. 27 vs LAC, 27 vs Cincy. 28 vs Atlanta. But I am not buying it. The first 2 with Tannehill. The other was the Levi breakout. Everything seems to be lining up for Indy right now. 4* Money Maker INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 

Taking MIAMI. Dolphins should be able to do what Dallas did last week to Washington. This Washington team is a hot mess. I think they have officially quit on the season. Trade some guys. Fire the DC. Get run out of the building. How are they staying within 10 here? They aren't. 4* Money Maker MIAMI DOLPHINS

Taking the J E T S Jets Jets Jets. There is zero chance I am taking the Falcons vs any team as a road favorite. Lost at Arizona as a fave 25-23. Lost at Tennessee as a fave 28-23. Lost at Detroit 20-6. Lost at the Jags 23-7. Beat the Titans 16-13. So in a game between 2 teams that have trouble scoring, give me the home dogs. 4* Money Maker NEW YORK JETS

Taking the CHARGERS. Uh. Not that I ever want to lay points with the Chargers. Just two weeks ago I was in Mid Day Money and telling you to take the Packers at home. Now we get LAC off an bad loss on SNF. But, we get the Patriots off an even worse loss. And I really have to say, I was going to take NE here. I just can't. If that is the effort out of the bye week, it is officially over for this team. Not going to overthink. Patriots have some serious issues. Grab some Herbert Over Rushing 15.5 yards too. 4* Money Maker LA CHARGERS

Taking the STEELERS. Finally some offense from Pitt as they can Matt Canada. They still couldn't punch it in the end zone though. But we know that the Steelers will bring defense and Tomlin gets the most out of least. Zero chance I even look to Arizona. 9 straight road losses for the Cardinals. 4* Money Maker PITTSBURGH STEELERS
