Football Picks, October 6th

One game on the pro schedule looks worth a bet.

$22 @ 11/10 on Kansas City (-2 1/2) over Tennessee

The Titans lost their starting QB last week, which is never a good thing. The Chiefs are 4-0 and riding high. Going with the hot hand in this one.

Profit/Loss                     $222.00
Current Bankroll          $2,222.00

Football Picks, October 5th

Several games look good on the Saturday NCAA menu.

$22 @ 11/10 on Oklahoma St. (-13 1/2) over Kansas St.

The Cowboys are averaging 45 ppg this season and have beaten K-State 3 straight at home. Kansas St. has had the turnover bug this year. They can't afford that today or this one will get away from them in a hurry.

$22 @ 11/10 on North Texas (-2 1/2) over Tulane

Both team's running games are on par, but North Texas has the better passing game. 

$22 @ 11/10 on Clemson (-13 1/2) over Syracuse

Clemson QB Boyd has thrown for 9 touchdowns this season and zero interceptions. The Tigers have won 12 straight by double digits versus unranked teams. 

$22 @ 11/10 on LSU (-9) over Mississippi St.

LSU has won 20 of the last 21 games between the two teams. 

$22 @ 11/10 on Virginia Tech (-7) over North Carolina

The Tar Heels gave up 600+ yards and 55 points in their last games. They are surrendering over 32 ppg this season. Va. Tech's defense has been much stingier, allowing only 15 ppg. The Hokies have won 4 straight. 

$22 @ 11/10 on Kansas City (-2 1/2) over Tennessee

The Titans lost their starting QB last week, which is never a good thing. The Chiefs are 4-0 and riding high. Going with the hot hand this Sunday.

Starting Bankroll         $2,000.00
Profit/Loss                     $206.00
Current Bankroll          $2,206.00

MLB Picks, October 3rd

The divisional playoffs begin in Atlanta and St. Louis today

$20 on St. Louis (Wainwright) over Pittsburgh (Burnett) -1 1/2 @ +155

Wainwright has surrendered only 7 runs in his last 5 starts, including 7 innings of 2 hit ball against Pittsburgh last month. Burnett has fared well against the Redbirds when pitching at home, but on foreign soil he has been popped for 10 runs in 7+ innings in his last two starts in the "Show Me" state. The Cardinals have beaten the Pirates 4 straight times at home.

$65 on St. Louis (-160) to win series over Pittsburgh

Both teams have strong pitching, but St. Louis has the better offense, featuring 5 hitters averaging .296 and above. That should be enough to put them over the top against the Pirates.

$65 on LA Dodgers (-160) to win series over Atlanta

The Dodgers have too much pitching for the Braves to overcome in a short series.

Starting Bankroll                          $1,500.00
Profit/Loss                                     $140.75
Current Bankroll                          $1,640.75

Action is considered dead unless both listed pitchers start.
