*Free Play on West Virginia* West Virginia bringing in Cam Cook in the backfield is a game changer. How did Jacksonville State look without Cook in the backfield next to Creel last weekend? Cook was the guy who made that Jacksonville State offense go last season! Such a tough runner! How can we expect a total rebuild defense in Coastal Carolina with low talent rankings to stop Cook and company? I don't think they will.

Coastal Carolina brings in Ryan Beard who did a good job at Missouri State. Maybe it will work out in the long haul, but he has his work cut out for him this season. They have no clear cut starter at QB. Samari Collier was the spark for the Coastal offense late last year, but he is gone. A big downgrade. The offensive line for Coastal is going to be a big weakness. The talent level here is just too low for the Sun Belt- and definitely too low for a Big 12 foe.

Rich Rodriguez is 15-4 ATS in his last 19 games as a home favorite. West Virginia has a great home field advantage, and this team is much improved this season. I'm low on Coastal Carolina.

Take West Virginia here.

Ricky's 1* play on WPG.

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.

- Winnipeg are 3-0 ATS in their last 3 games.

- Saskatchewan are 3-6 ATS in their last 9 games.

- Winnipeg are 4-2 in the last 6 head to head meetings.

Verdict: The value is on the road Underdog.

(#219) Clemson Tigers | ATS | . 

This should be a closer game than the oddsmakers are expecting. With the total close to 50 points, LSU would need to score around 30 to cover the spread. I don't expect that to happen on Saturday. All season long a year ago, LSU failed miserably to put up points. I understand that this is a new offense with a new HC & QB (and good one's at that.) However, this is a very difficult opening game to have to start with. 

Clemson's defense is also getting under appreciated in my eyes. Dabo Swinney always seems to have his guys ready for a real fight, especially in these games early on in the season. I wouldn't be shocked if the road Tigers upset LSU here given all of the emotions. Grab the points in the ABC game on Saturday evening. 

Burns' Prediction: 20-17 LSU.

(3 Unit Free Play Over 44) Taron Dickens transferred in to Northern Illinois. He was a star at Western Carolina at QB. He won SoCon Offensive Player of the Year. With Dickens and a new coaching staff, Northern Illinois looking to be aggressive and throw the ball a lot more. They are also looking to run tempo. Northern Illinois will look a whole lot different on offense than they did last season.

The Northern Illinois defense is in bad shape. They will likely look even worse with the faster pace being played by the offense. The Huskies are likely to give up quite a few points, even against an Iowa team that doesn't normally score all that much. Iowa is going to score here though. The Hawkeyes run game behind a strong offensive line way be way too much for the Huskies defensive front. 

It's a low total, and we'll go over the total.

Miami of Ohio is a good Mid-American Conference team - as long as it's not being asked to step up in class. Unfortunately for the RedHawks that is the case here on the road against Pittsburgh, a team with aspirations of winning the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The RedHawks are 2-9 ATS the last 11 times as an underdog, including failing to cover the past six times when getting points. They also are 1-9 in their last 10 season openers.

Pittsburgh had a top 10 run defense last season and returns Mason Heintschel, who emerged as one of the best freshman quarterbacks in the country last year. The Panthers went 6-3 after Heintschel replaced an ineffective Eli Holstein.

The Panthers have a huge QB edge here as the RedHawks will be starting transfer quarterback David McComb. Miami of Ohio lost starting quarterback Thomas Gotkowski after he suffered a season-ending, non-contact injury. So McComb will be making his first college start on the road against a strong ACC defense. Not exactly a formula for success. 

3* on UCLA

Jack's Free Pick Saturday: Tulsa +13.5

There has been a ton of hype on Oklahoma State all offseason.  Former North Texas head coach Eric Morris brought a ton of transfers with him to Stillwater.  But this is still a big rebuilding job off a 1-11 season, and this is a big step up in class for these players going from the AAC to the Big 12.

No question there's a lot to like about this North Texas offense with QB Mestemaker, RB Hawkins and WR Young following Morris from North Texas.  And while I think the offense will be fine, there's a lot of questions surrounding the defense.  The Cowboys don't return a single starter on either side of the ball.

The defense in particular is concerning with Morris banking on basically all transfers.  And most of the transfers are from smaller conferences, including several from what was a pretty poor North Texas defense.  The Cowboys are going to struggle to get margin all season with this defense, including in Week 1 against Tulsa.

Tulsa beat Oklahoma State 19-12 last season in Stillwater.  But the Golden Hurricane clearly are not satisfied with just beating them once.  "We want to beat these guys. We don't just want to keep it close," head coach Tre Lamb said. "Our goal is to win the football game, and that's gonna be our goal every week.  But particularly this one.  It means a lot to our fanbase and I understand that."

Lamb is one of the better up-and-coming head coaches in the country at just 35 years old.  He didn't have much to work with last season, and the Golden Hurricane went 4-8 despite actually outgaining their opponents on the season.  They were better than their record would indicate.  And now Lamb has a lot more veterans in Year 2.

Sophomore QB Baylor Hayes returns to lead the offense after throwing for 2,158 yards and 12 TD last season, while also rushing for three scores.  The Golden Hurricane are loaded at RB, and the offensive line has five players back who started last season, so the continuity will be good.  

The defense returns six of their top nine tacklers, which is rare for a Group of 6 program.  I actually think Tulsa has the better defense in this matchup.  I'll gladly back the better defense at home catching nearly two touchdowns.  Bet Tulsa Saturday.

Georgia -46.5

Georgia is worth a free move laying points. The Bulldogs will not have any issue here against Tennessee State. This Tenn State side lost to Jackson State in Week 0 and will just simply not be able to slow Georgia down. Even the second stringers will be able to move the ball with easy as this game will be a blowout from the start. Back Georgia. Locking this in early.

Dave's Saturday Free Play:

1* on West Virginia -21

The Key: The West Virginia Mountaineers should be one of the most improved teams in the country in Year 2 under Rich Rodriquez.  He has the players he needs to fit his schemes now after a great transfer portal class.  He has the dual-threat QB he covets in Oklahoma transfer Michael Hawkins, and 2nd-team All-American RB Cam Cook comes over from his former team in Jacksonville State to reunite with his head coach.  The offensive line is big and physical and WVU will be able to maul teams this season.  The defense brings in 5 transfer starters and will be improved as well.  The Ohio Bobcats are in a world of hurt this season with 1st-year head coach John Hauser.  They only bring back 5 starters including one on offense, and this will be one of the worst offenses in the country.  They won't have the firepower to keep up with the Mountaineers.  Take West Virginia.

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Indiana -39.5

Curt Cignetti wins and covers everywhere he goes.  The Hoosiers have gone 20-9 ATS in the first two seasons under Cignetti.  He doesn't allow complacency, and he won't allow it to set in even after winning the national title last year.  He has reloaded nicely with 10 starters back from last year's team and another seven transfer starters from other programs.  That includes the prized QB in the transfer portal in TCU's Josh Hoover, who has thrown for 9,629 yards and 71 TD in his career.  North Texas was gutted when Eric Morris left for Oklahoma State, taking all of his best players with him.  Neal Brown landed in Denton after getting fired at West Virginia.  All 22 starters are gone, and Brown only managed to get six transfers who started at other programs to fill the void.  The Mean Green are going to be one of the worst teams in FBS this season.  Give me Indiana.

Boise State @ Oregon  (3:30 PM EST)
Play On:  Boise State +25

The Boise State Broncos travel to Oregon to take on the Ducks on Saturday afternoon.  Boise State was 9-5 SU overall last year while Oregon was 13-2 SU overall last season.  This is the opener for both teams this year.  Boise State is 5-0 ATS last 3 years when playing in September.  Boise State returns quarterback Maddux Madsen along with running backs Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines. Riley rushed for 1,125 yards last season while Gaines added 811 yards, giving Boise State an experienced backfield capable of shortening the game and limiting Oregon possessions.  If Boise State can consistently run the football, convert enough third downs and avoid giving Oregon short fields, the Broncos have a realistic path to staying inside this enormous number.  Boise State is 4-0 ATS last 4 games in this series.  We'll recommend a small play on Boise State today!  Thanks and good luck, Rocky

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #164 Under in Marshall Thundering Herd @ Penn State Nittany Lions (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 5 FS1) The Matt Campbell era gets underway at Penn State on Saturday. Penn State should still have a strong defense and Coach Campbell is a run the ball and play strong defense type of coach. I don’t think he will want to throw the football up and down the field and focus on field position and ball control. Marshall usually a bowl caliber team and not a mid-major pushover like some teams. They have to run clock to have any chance to keep this game under twenty points and that should set up a strong play for the under. Marshall closed out the season going under the posted total in 3 straight games.

Saturdays FREE WINNER: Alabama Crimson Tide.

Game 182.

9:00 AM PST/12:00 PM EST.

Alabama can not be happy entering this season ranked No. 13 in the country. I can’t remember the last time they ranked out of the top-10, my friends. I mean, let’s face it, this team had high expectations a season ago. They came out and lost their first game of the regular season on the road at Florida State, getting embarrassed, 31-17. They then rattled off eight consecutive victories before a tough controversial loss by two-points at the hands of the Oklahoma. They then finish this season beating out their remaining opponents. They lost to Georgia in the conference title game, beat Oklahoma, in the first round of the Bowls, then got annihilated 38-3 at the hands of the Indiana Hoosiers in the Bowl quarterfinals. They play an East Carolina team that will receive $1.5 million guaranteed just for showing up here. This is a squad that lost some key contributors from a season ago when they went 9-4. They have some new coaches, and a lot of new faces that are going take a while to mesh. Not only that, but I feel their shaky quarterback situation is going to be exploited today against an Alabama opponent that is reported to be significantly stronger on the defensive side of the ball this season. I just feel the prideful Crimson Tide team has to redeem themselves a bit in this opener as they come in ranked 13th in the country and having last taken the field, getting demolished by the Hoosiers. They Must come out and prove a point here. Take Alabama. Thank you.

I like UCLA to win and cover the short spread here on Saturday.  The Bruins have the more proven quarterback in Nico Iamaleava, and new head coach Bob Chesney brings a strong winning background after taking James Madison to the College Football Playoff last season. UCLA also added 45 transfers, including explosive running back Wayne Knight, who produced 2,039 all-purpose yards in 2025.

Cal has talent, particularly at quarterback, but it is also debuting a new head coach and rebuilt roster. In what should be a close rivalry game, I give UCLA the edge in quarterback experience, offensive versatility and coaching track record.

Jim's Play: UCLA

Louisville +7 in Nashville is the side I want you holding. Not because Ole Miss is a mirage. Because 7 is too much juice to lay in a rented building before either offense has taken a real snap. Neutral site, ranked-on-ranked, first Sunday of the year. That is how hooks get fat.

You are not fading the Rebels to lose. You are fading them to win by more than a touchdown while both staffs are still installing. That is a different ticket. 27-24 Ole Miss cashes. 24-21 cashes. 23-20 Louisville is the gift. The moneyline is a dart. The number is the work. Public money will hammer the higher logo because it travels and it is on ABC. That is how plus-7 gets to the window looking like value instead of a prayer.

Do not buy this down to +6.5 and pay extra juice to sleep better. The 7 is the reason I am writing it. Sit on your hands. Let the first-game rust show up on both sidelines. If Ole Miss is up 14-0 at the half and still cannot punch the second one in, that hook starts earning its keep.

Bet Louisville plus the number as an underdog of 4.5 to 8.5 on a neutral site.
That spot since 2023: 11-6 (64.7%) with an average spread of +6.3. (+4.4 units, ROI=23.5%)

Bet the dog in Week 1 ranked-on-ranked games posted between 4.5 and 8.
That spot since 2022: 16-10 (61.5%) with an average spread of +6.1. (+4.8 units, ROI=16.8%)

Bet against a favorite of 6 to 7.5 in a neutral-site opener.
That spot since 2023: 18-11 (62.1%). (+5.7 units, ROI=17.9%)

If the Rebels hang 35, we tip the cap and move on. If this thing lives in the 20s, the points do what we paid them to do. That is the bet. Take the 7. Do not overthink the logo.

My selection is on Kansas City over Toronto at 7:10 pm et on Saturday.

The Blue Jays took the opener of this series in blowout fashion last night and have won three games in a row to stay in the thick of the A.L. Wild Card hunt. The Royals are simply playing out the string at this point but I look for them to play spoiler on Saturday as they send Seth Lugo to the hill against Max Scherzer of the Blue Jays. Lugo has held current Blue Jays hitters to 14-for-65 (.215) with a .599 OPS at the plate. Scherzer is coming off arguably his best start of the season but current Royals are a healthy 26-for-92 (.283) with a .855 off of him including four home runs off the bat of Salvador Perez. Take Kansas City (8*).

Our selection is on the Pittsburgh Pirates to defeat the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday at 6:40pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Los Angeles will start Yusei Kikuchi -- Before his two games in August, he hadn't pitched since April. He's continued to lose games and is 0-5.

The Angels are 14-28 this season against opponents from the National League.

Pittsburgh will start Braxton Ashcraft -- He's been the guy that's kept this team afloat with a 14-5 record and a 3.59 earned run average.

The Pirates are the opposite of the Angels, with a 23-13 record against opponents from the American League this year.

The play is on Pittsburgh.

AAA Sports

Wyomingvs Colorado State CFB Free Pick

The Angle(s): The rivalry battle for the Bronze Boot kicks off Week 1 with maximum stakes, as Colorado State enters a new era under head coach Jim Mora and begins its inaugural season in the Pac-12. Despite the home-field buzz and "Stripe Out" crowd expected at Canvas Stadium, I like the road underdog in this matchup.

Wyoming shutout Colorado State 28-0 in their previous meeting, physically dominating the line of scrimmage and completely stifling the Rams' offensive rhythm. While CSU undergoes a major schematic overhaul under a new coaching staff, Wyoming brings back established core defensive continuity. In a high-emotions rivalry game where points are traditionally at a premium, catching a full field goal with the defensive side that dominated this matchup recently is a great position.

The Bet: Wyoming ATS (3%).

For my best free pick on the board here for Saturday, I am looking at the Nevada Wolfpack hosting the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. Western Kentucky is off a nice 9-4 season, while Nevada struggled to a 3-9 year, and early on this line opened at -4 Western Kentucky. And despite some big action on the Hilltoppers, we have seen this line drop to close to a pick ‘ em on Saturday. Love Nevada to be good at home this season and for Western Kentucky to take a step back this season.
