Our Sportsbook.com writers continue to provide you with solid picks and have four more games to dissect this week.
Both writers went 2-2 with last weekend’s picks and while not a winning week, they are both siding with the winners more often than not. Through six weeks, Cras has a 14-8-2 Double Take record with Mike at 13-9-2.
Will the winning continue this weekend? Here’s how they like four key matchups on Sunday.
A solid week gets us back into the plus territory – let’s see if we can keep it rolling this week and we approach the halfway point of the college football season.
Record: 19-7 (+3.6 units)
A good Florida bounce-back led helped me get to two wins but with Colorado and North Texas laying down, the week is awash with a 2-2 record. Let’s try to keep it positive in Week 7.
Record: 15-7 (-1.85 units)
No Tom Brady? No problem! The New England Patriots came out last weekend after a bye week and showed why they are easily still one of the top teams in the AFC. The most impressive thing I saw out of this team, as an online betting fan, was how they got Randy Moss into the game early. With Moss catching passes, this team is very difficult to beat. That’s exactly what they did. Moss catches passes, New England plays well, and the Patriots beat the NFL online betting spread of 3 points by winning their game versus the 49’ers by 9 points.
The UAB Blazers and the Houston Cougars will both be trying to pick up a win on Thursday when they battle at John O`Quinn Field at Robertson Stadium. Houston is a 18-point favorite the over under is 67.
TV: CSTV
UAB: 1-5 SU, 3-2 ATS
Houston: 2-3 SU, 1-3 ATS
The Troy Trojans and the Florida Atlantic Owls will both be trying to pick up a win on Tuesday when they battle at Lockhart Stadium. Troy is a 3 point favorite the over under is 50.5.
TV: ESPN 2
Troy: 2-2 SU, 2-1 ATS
Florida Atlantic: 1-4 SU, 3-2 ATS
The New Orleans Saints host the Minnesota Vikings in a game with two teams going in opposite directions. The New Orleans Saints appear to be turning things around after losing their second and third games of the season. They were dominant in their victory over the San Francisco 49’ers in week four of the NFL season, destroying the BetUS online NFL betting spread of 3½ points. They beat the 49’ers 31 to 17 in that one. Even though the Saints are 2 and 2 straight up they are also 3 and 1 versus the BetUS online wagering spread in their four games this season.
It’s been a great start to the NFL season for our two Sportsbook.com writers. We keep handing them games to pick and they’ve been providing winners on a consistent basis.
The good news is that I avoided USC and Florida last week. The bad news is that Wake Forest still collapsed, losing outright to Navy and hence presents our first landmine of the year. It’s time to make up some ground and get back into the positives.

Chicago White Sox vs. Minnesota Twins MLB Betting Preview
The Chicago White Sox didn’t seem like a team that could thrive in the clutch after being swept by the Minnesota Twins last week.
Everything is back to normal for our Sportsbook.com writers. After a week in which they agreed on all four games, they are back to disagreeing this week.
It’s time to keep plugging away after another nice underdog hit with Wake Forest last weekend. The card looks tricky this week so let’s just try to avoid any landmines.
Tulane is an 18 point favorite the over under is 49.
It’s not that often we can get these guys to agree on things, but our Sportsbook.com writers are on the same page for this Sunday’s Week 3 games.
LSU and Auburn is one heck of a way to start the SEC West race, with the two favorites meeting in their first conference game.
