The Pittsburgh Panthers (4-1 SU, 1-4 ATS, 1-4 O/U) have reeled off four straight wins, including an encouraging 26-21 win over, then No. 10South Florida on Oct. 2 after a season-opening loss to mediocre Bowling Green.
The Navy Midshipmen (4-2 SU, 3-2 ATS, 2-3 O/U), have won three straight contests, to halt a modest two-game skid, beating Air Force 33-27 on the road in their most recent game on Oct. 4.
The Vanderbilt Commodores are the surprise team of the SEC Conference this season. They have been very good this season. Yes, they did lose their last game to Mississippi State but that’s okay because the weekend before they beat the Auburn Tigers.

The San Diego Chargers (3-3 SU, 3-2-1 ATS), coming off an important revenge win that evened their record, will travel back east on Sunday when they take on the Buffalo Bills (4-1 SU, 3-2 ATS), who are looking very good in the AFC East division, in NFL action that is scheduled to take place at 1 PM ET at Ralph Wilson Stadium (artificial turf) in Orchard Park, NY.
The Chicago Bears (3-3 SU, 3-2-1 ATS, 2-4 O/U), fell to the surprising, young Atlanta Falcons 22-20 on the road last week on a last-second field goal and need a win in the worst way as they host their longtime NFC North rivals, the Minnesota Vikings (3-3 SU, 2-4 ATS, 3-3 O/U) this week.
Lets forget for a moment I laid the wood with Oklahoma and Missouri last week. There was a moment of clarity last week for me and millions of Big 12 fans.
