Jack's Free Pick Saturday: Minnesota/Indiana UNDER 42
The Indiana Hoosiers are a dead nuts UNDER team this season. Their defense is every bit as good as last year, but their offense has taken a big step back. They have gone 3-0 UNDER in their last three games overall finishing with 37 combined points with Nebraska, 34 with Ohio State and 19 with Michigan in a game that was tied 6-6 at the end of regulation.
It was clear in the Michigan game that QB Josh Hoover is not right and playing through injury. He got hurt late in the Ohio State game and missed some easy throws that cost them the win. Hoover came back to go 8-of-18 for 81 yards with an interception last week against Michigan. I don't think he'll be close to 100% this week, either.
Indiana ranks 3rd in scoring defense allowing 12.0 points per game, 8th in total defense allowing 264.8 yards per game and 2nd allowing 4.1 yards per play. I fully expect the Hoosiers to shut down this suspect Minnesota offense this week, and to salt away the clock in the 2H with their running game just to get out of there with a win.
This is a very poor Minnesota offense and it has shown the last three weeks. The Gophers managed just 262 yards and 4.0 per play against Michigan, 275 yards and 5.3 per play against a terrible Purdue defense, and 209 yards and 3.4 per play against Iowa. In Big Ten play alone they are averaging just 18.3 points per game, 268.8 yards per game and 4.5 yards per play.
But this is a very talented Minnesota defense that I think can hold Indiana in check. The Gophers are allowing 20.1 points per game and 4.9 yards per play while ranking 16th in total defense at 288.7 yards per game. I don't see Indiana scoring more than 31, and I don't see Minnesota scoring more than 10. So there is value with the UNDER 42 above the key of 41 this week. Bet the UNDER in this game Saturday.

Doc's Sports
Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #135 Illinois Fighting Illini over Maryland Terrapins (12 p.m., Saturday, October 31 FS1). I don’t expect Maryland to get much of a spark after firing Mike Locksley. With the remaining staff facing uncertain futures in College Park, keeping this team focused could be a challenge. Illinois still has a bowl berth within reach, and this matchup represents one of its best remaining opportunities to pick up a win. The Illini have won the last two meetings with Maryland, taking last year’s matchup 24-6 after a 27-24 road victory in 2023. Bret Bielema brings the experience to keep Illinois moving forward, and his team has won two straight against opponents stronger than the Maryland squad it faces today. Take the Fighting Illini.

Ray Monohan
Browns +3.5
The Browns are worth a free move on Sunday against the Steelers. It's a battle for first place in the AFC North and the Browns come in with all the confidence. They defeated the Steelers earlier this season in Cleveland and they have seen a revived Deshaun Watson at QB. He continues to lead game winning drives and the defense is up for the task against this Steelers offense. They caused a lot of issues for Aaron Rodgers earlier this year and they're going to blitz him all night long. With the offense of Cleveland far more threatening now, they have a chance to make life miserable Sunday for Pittsburgh. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Today's FREE selection is a strong lean on the BROWNS +3.5. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

The Patriots enter Sunday’s matchup at Hard Rock Stadium at 4-3, averaging 22.9 points per game while allowing 20.4. Miami stands at 1-5, scoring 16.3 while allowing 26.2. Both sides have already shown stretches of competence, and a 7-point road number against a bottom-tier offense is not a tax when the favorite holds the clearer path through efficiency and the opponent has already given up volume. The market has not priced a blowout. The short number is the work.
New England generates looks through Drake Maye’s primary creation and secondary options that have already converted at an efficient rate. They control the ball on the ground in spots and force the defense into coverage when the run game is established. Miami’s early metrics place them near the bottom of the league on both sides of the ball. Their run game (Ollie Gordon) has produced relative volume, but the overall efficiency has not kept pace. The challenge for the Dolphins is containing a primary creator who can score at multiple levels while also generating open looks for the secondary options. Miami’s defensive rating has already allowed points in bunches, and the sample against sustained creation remains limited.
Player-to-player, the gap favors New England. Maye is averaging 254.9 passing yards per game with 13 touchdowns and an efficiency edge (96.4 rating, 8.3 yards per attempt). He has already produced multiple high-volume outings, including 374 yards and four touchdowns against Las Vegas. Malik Willis has been inconsistent (176.2 yards per game, 4 touchdowns, 77.1 rating) and has taken volume in sacks. Rhamondre Stevenson provides New England with a consistent ground option that forces the defense to account for both the run and the play-action. Gordon gives Miami a relative strength on the ground, but the secondary options have not yet converted at a rate that matches the Patriots’ efficiency. When the primary creator draws attention, New England’s secondary targets have already shown they can finish. Miami has not yet limited a balanced attack at this level for a full game.
Road favorites of 7 points or fewer facing an opponent ranked 25th or worse in points scored have covered at a 28-16 rate (63.6%) since the early 2010s. At even money, 28 wins and 16 losses equates to +12.0 units and a 27.3% ROI. The average margin in those situations has been +8.1 points. Efficiency against a soft front has been the decisive factor.
Teams averaging 20 or more points per game with a defensive rating inside the top 15 have covered as road favorites of 7 or fewer at a 25-15 rate (62.5%) when facing an opponent outside the top 20 in points scored. At even money, that record is +10.0 units and a 25.0% ROI. The short number has been the cleaner side when the favorite holds the usage edge and the opponent’s early metrics have not yet been tested against sustained secondary creation.
The 7-point line does not require the Patriots to dominate. It requires them to avoid a late collapse in a game the market has framed as competitive. A move to 7.5 or higher significantly reduces the value. Shop the lower number if it is available. Starter confirmation is advised before kickoff, particularly with any late injury developments on either side. Any significant limitation on the primary creator or a major rotation shift can alter the cover probability. The short road number remains the position.
