Free Sports Picks of the Day

[1%] Free Play on Phillies -152

A respected sharp position supports over 50. California quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele completed 27 of 33 passes for 413 yards and three touchdowns last week as the Golden Bears accumulated 626 yards.

Clemson is expected to use freshman Tait Reynolds again if Christopher Vizzina’s elbow remains an issue. Reynolds completed 20 of 29 passes for 215 yards with one touchdown and one interception in his first start. His mobility can create additional explosive-play opportunities against a California defense that should force Clemson to remain aggressive.

California’s offensive form provides the stronger half of the handicap, but the absence of an elite system keeps this as a free play. Play over 50 up to 51.

Ricky's 1* play on Army.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Army are 6-4 in their last 10 games.

- Temple are 1-6 in their last 7 games.

- Army are 3-1 in their last 4 road games.

Verdict: The value is on the road favorite.

Saturday's Free NCAAF Pick

PLAY ON: LSU -8.5

Not only do the Nationals have the better starting pitcher going, but they also have the superior offense.

Yet Washington finds itself a home underdog to the Mets. I am not going along with that.

This shapes up to be a bullpen game for the Mets. Their bullpen depth took a serious hit at the trade deadline.

Washington is starting Andrew Alvarez, who has a 3.17 ERA and averages nearly a strikeout per inning. This is just the second time in his last six starts he has not been favored. The Nationals have won Alvarez's past two starts.

The Nationals are third in runs and OPS. They rank fifth in homers and have the most steals.

By comparison, the Mets rank 21st in runs, 23rd in batting average, 24th in OPS and steals.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #313 UCLA Bruins over Maryland Terrapins (1:30 p.m., Saturday, September 26, BTN)

We faded Maryland at home last week, and we’re backing UCLA against the Terrapins this Saturday. The Bruins are 3-0 under first-year head coach Bob Chesney. While their competition has been modest, they’ve shown they can score, and we expect their offense to make the difference.

Maryland struggled against Virginia Tech last week, falling behind 35-14 before adding late fourth-quarter touchdowns. Chesney also knows the region from his time coaching at James Madison in Virginia. With UCLA favored, we like the Bruins in this matchup.

Saturday’s Free Winner: Michigan State Spartans.

Game 318.

2:00 PM PST/5:00 PM EST.

Nebraska snapped a two-game slide in this series with last season’s home victory, 38-27. Now they must travel to East Lansing to face a Michigan State opponent that happens to be a covering machine. That’s right, my friends the Spartans have covered all three games this season, and going back a bit further five in a row and eight of their last nine overall contests. They face the same tough opponents the Cornhuskers do being in the Big Ten. Meanwhile, what can we say about Nebraska? They had three very easy opponents thus far being favored by as little as 23.5 points and as high as 30.5 points. They failed to cover their last outing against North Dakota, and going back a bit, they have failed to cover four of their last six and seven of their last 10 overall outings. Michigan State had a lot of trouble in their last outing on the road at Notre Dame, failing to get their ground game in gear along with a lackluster passing attack. But I feel they’re in for a big bounce back in this matchup here. Yes, Nebraska is 3-0. But those victories came against two MAC teams and one FCS opponent. If you recall a season ago, they failed to win any of their final three games against Penn State, Iowa, and Utah. They were smoked in all three of those games. They’re also not the greatest covering on the road either. While the MSU offense leaves a lot to be desired, their defense is good enough to put some pressure on Nebraska’s quarterback and keep this game a lot closer than the point spread. Playing in East Lansing in front of their very loud and loyal fans gives the Spartans a big edge in this matchup. Making them an underdog in their first Big Ten outing at home will further motivate them to come out here and make a good appearance. The Cornhuskers have big matchups upcoming against the Terrapins, the Hoosiers, the Ducks and the Huskies all in a row. Maybe they’ll overlook this week’s opponent just a bit. Take MSU. Thank you.

I'm playing Northwestern and Indiana OVER 49.5 points Friday night primarily because I trust Indiana's offense to do most of the scoring.

The Hoosiers are scoring 48.3 points per game while averaging almost eight yards per play. Indiana quarterback Josh Hoover has thrown 10 TD passes and has yet to throw a pick. Northwestern has also been no slouch offensively, scoring 37.5 points and racking up 460 yards per game.

Indiana should be able to score in the upper 30s to low 40s just by themselves. Throw in 14 to 17 points from Northwestern and the number becomes very attainable.

Seahawks -7

Seattle’s defense is the difference for me here. The Seahawks have allowed just 17 points through two games, and now they draw Marcus Mariota with Jayden Daniels sidelined. That’s a tough assignment against a Seattle front that should control the line of scrimmage. Drew Lock has also done exactly what you want from a backup, including three TD passes last week, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba remains a matchup problem. Seattle has won 15 of its last 16 road games, so traveling east doesn’t scare me much. Washington has too many problems to solve against one of the league’s best defenses. Lay the touchdown. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays.

Minnesota sits plus-10 in Seattle on a first conference Saturday that starts when most of the Midwest is already in bed. Washington is 3–0 and laying a touchdown-plus at home. The Gophers are 2–1 with a 59–7, a 13–38, and a 41–7 on the sheet. That 13–38 against Mississippi State is the tape people will use to hammer the Huskies. The rest of the card is why the hook still looks like work.

Seventeen meetings. Minnesota 10–7. Last one was Oct. 1, 1977 in Minneapolis: Gophers 19, Huskies 17. Combined 36. No conference chapter until Saturday. No Seattle chapter since Oct. 2, 1976, when Washington dropped them 38–7. The building series is 4–4. Washington owns the last two in Husky Stadium — 38–7 in ’76 and 24–21 in ’58. Fifty-year-old home wins. Ten points in 2026 is chalk tax for a logo and a late kick, not a live series.

Washington is scoring 29.3 and allowing 13.3. Minnesota is scoring 37.7 and allowing 17.3. Those Gopher points are Eastern Illinois and Akron juice. The Huskies are 0–3 ATS laying double-digit numbers. Kick is 11 p.m. ET, 8 p.m. local. Minneapolis body clock, two time zones, first Big Ten Saturday on the coast. Public will smash minus-10 because Washington is unbeaten and FOX is on. That is how plus-10 gets to the window looking like a prayer. The 10–7 ledger and the 0–3 ATS tape are why it is a ticket.

You are not fading the Huskies to lose. You are fading them to cover a full score after a 49-year gap on a late window. 27–24 cashes. 24–17 cashes. 20–17 Minnesota is the gift.

Bet Minnesota plus the number as a road underdog of 9.5 to 11 after a series gap of 40-plus years.
All-time series: Minnesota 10-7. Last meeting 19–17. Seattle split 4-4. (+3.0 unit$, ROI=27.3%)

Bet the dog in first conference games kicking after 10 p.m. ET when the visitor crossed two time zones.
Late window, West Coast, Midwest roster. That hook has lived closer to a field goal than two scores. (+4.1 unit$, ROI=19.7%)

Bet against a 3–0 home favorite of 9.5 to 11 that is 0–3 ATS laying double digits.
The 0–3 ATS tape is on the card. Ten is the tax, not the lock.

Play: Minnesota +10.

My selection is on Los Angeles plus the points over Buffalo at 1 pm et on Sunday.

The Bills will look to improve to 3-0 SU and ATS as they host the reeling Chargers on Sunday in Orchard Park. Buffalo is obviously a high-profile Super Bowl contender on a yearly basis and it looks like bettors are flocking to it again in this spot. I don't think this result will be all that straight-forward, however. The Chargers will undoubtedly bring desperation into this matchup as they're off to a miserable 0-2 start, with both losses coming at home. They're certainly being punished in the betting marketplace for their disappointing start, too much so in my opinion. Remember, Los Angeles started last season 3-0 but that didn't end up taking it very far as it ultimately bowed out in the Wild Card round against New England. The Bills have had an extra few days to pat themselves on the back following a lopsided win over the Lions in their home opener a week ago Thursday. I don't think the extra rest means nearly as much at this early stage of the season. All is not lost for the Chargers here in 2026 and I expect them to put forth a much stronger effort against the Bills, ultimately taking this one down to the wire and covering the lofty pointspread. Take Los Angeles (8*).

Cubs vs Red Sox Game 1 MLB Free Pick

The Angle(s): Cubs right-hander Clay Holmes (2-4, 4.26 ERA in 8 Cubs starts) takes the bump in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader following a tough outing against Cincinnati where he yielded six earned runs and walked five. Holmes has struggled with control since transitioning to a full-time starter role in Chicago, and his elevated 1.35 WHIP is not pretty. 

The Red Sox open with left-hander Alec Gamboa (1-0, 1.16 ERA), who has served as an effective opener and bulk-reliever all season. In his 31 innings across 20 appearances, Gamboa has held opponents to a minuscule .215 batting average while posting a 1.06 WHIP. His exceptional run-prevention numbers will keep Chicago’s bats quiet early before turning things over to a well-rested Boston bullpen.

At this price, backing Boston home at Fenway is a no-brainer IMO. 

The Bet: Red Sox (3%). 

Coming off a 3-0 SWEEP (2-0 MLB, 1-0 NFL), Mike improved to a SIZZLING 8-1 MLB premium pick run!

Marc David Sports' Free Pick

4-1 Free Pick Run!

23-6, +$16,420 L29 totals premium picks since September 03, 2026! Marc David Sports has two 4% BIG BET totals Friday. 

We really like the under in this matchup. The Cardinals (77-82) travel to Milwaukee to take on the Brewers (100-59) in an NL Central division battle. 

St. Louis hands the ball to RHP Michael McGreevy (7-9, 3.84 ERA), who has turned in multiple quality starts recently, allowing two earned runs or fewer in five of his last six starts. Home or away, McGreevy has posted equally solid numbers. 

The Brewers counter with LHP Robert Gasser (5-5, 4.01 ERA), who comes off a brilliant outing where he tossed 7.0 scoreless innings against Baltimore. Gasser has been exceptionally effective when pitching at home and has consistently suppressed hard contact throughout September, 1.71ERA over 21.0 innings. 

This is a FREE PLAY on the UNDER!
