Your free pick winner for Saturday is on Nebraska -3 at Washington.

Laying chalk on the road is not the overall key to success and losing Ndamukong Suh definitely hurts but Bo Pelini has done a great job with this Cornhusker program and his boys should be too physical today in the end.

I love Jake Locker as the quarterback may be the best player in the entire country and has the potential to be the first draft pick next season but with that said the finesse Huskies, even at home, really should not be able to physically compete well enough today to win this game. I really do like what Steve Sarkisian has done with this program in a short amount of time. We saw UDub upset USC a season ago and these guys do have talent. But it’s just asking too much for them to man up with the likes of Eric Martin and Baker Steinkuhler and the physicality of the boys from the Big 12. Some say this Black Shirt defense may be even better than last season with Suh. I’m not fully buying that as losing a superstar defender like that is too much to overcome and actually be better but this unit is very good and creates a tough matchup for the Huskies.

Taylor Martinez is a red shirt freshman who will be tested playing in his first road game but the kid is certainly talented enough to play over Zach Lee and even if not close to the level of Locker should be just fine. Martinez leads an offense that has been moving the ball and putting up points. I’ve even read the words electric and Oregon Ducks-like being used for this offense which is not bad at all as UN has been fairly slow and plodding over the past 10 or so years.

This game should be competitive but after 60 minutes I do think Pelini’s crew will wear down their Pac-10 opponent and win and cover this thing.

Harry and David have constant net losses while sports handicappers continue to have incredible money makers.

These are actual premium sports betting service picks, though the big one from ScoresOddsPicks is on Arkansas vs. UGA.  Here are some winners from the pro bettors.

Maryland at No. 21 West Virginia (-10) – 12:00 ET on ESPNU

The Mountaineers (2-0, 0-1 ATS) scored 15 points in the game’s final nine minutes to earn a 24-21 win over Marshall last week. Noel Devine carried the West Virginia offense, racking up 173 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown. While Devine and quarterback Geno Smith look sharp, the line has been mediocre at best, holding back the offense.

Maryland (2-0, 1-0 ATS) was out of control on offense in last week’s 62-3 romp over Morgan State. The game was out of hand in a hurry, as the Terps had a 24-0 lead just minutes into the second quarter. The defense has been especially impressive this year. Two weeks ago, Maryland stuffed Navy at the goal line with 34 seconds left—preserving a 17-14 victory.

Despite a win over Navy and the blowout against Morgan State, the Terrapins’ offense hasn’t been in top form. Hitting the road against West Virginia is a bad mismatch, as the Mountaineers are waiting to explode. They’ll rack up a pile of points and cover the spread.

No. 8 Nebraska (-4) at Washington – 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC

The Huskers have opened with two straight wins, though they’ve failed to cover against the spread so far (in fairness, they still won 49-10 and 38-17—not too shabby). Red-shirt freshman Taylor Martinez has been leading an explosive Nebraska offense that moves when he moves; Martinez is averaging 13.5 yards per carry. The defense was on fire against Idaho last week, racking up seven sacks and taking two of its five interceptions to the house.

But, if anyone can scorch that defense, it’s Jake Locker. Locker, a potential No. 1 overall NFL pick, has led Washington to a 1-1 start (1-1 against the spread). The Huskies are trying to rejuvenate their program, and a win over the Cornhuskers would go a long way to helping that. Defensively, Washington has played well over its past four games, but Martinez presents a whole new problem.

Nebraska is for real. Sure, Martinez is young, but you don’t need to be an expert at reading defenses to flee the pocket and rip off a 50-yard run. Locker will keep Washington around for a while, but there are just too many playmakers on the Cornhuskers’ side. Bet on Nebraska to cover.

Nevada vs. California and Kansas vs. Southern Mississippi point spread picks are up.

Courtesy of OddsShark.com: Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Golden Bears play on the road in Nevada, the Rangers begin a series out in Seattle, and the Rockies seek a win at Dodger Stadium.

Colliding on the gridiron . . .

College football offers up a pair of games on Friday, with Kansas at Southern Miss and California at Nevada. The Jayhawks are 1-1 SU and 1-0 ATS so far this season, while Southern Miss sits at 1-1 SU and 0-2 ATS. Oddsmakers like the Golden Eagles at home in that contest, pegging them as the 5.5-point favorites. Meanwhile, the Golden Bears are 2-0 SU and 1-0 ATS through the first two weeks of the season, and Nevada is at 2-0 SU and 1-0 ATS. California is pegged as a 3-point road favorite against the Wolf Pack.

As well, there is one Canadian Football League game on tap for Friday night, with Calgary at Saskatchewan. The Stampeders (9-1 SU, 8-2 ATS) ride a seven-game winning streak into Friday’s matchup, and they trounced Edmonton 36-20 on the road last week. The Roughriders (6-4 SU, 5-5 ATS) will be looking to bounce back from an ugly 31-2 road loss to Winnipeg last week in which they managed just a pair of singles. Oddsmakers have Calgary listed as a 2.5-point road favorite for Friday night’s matchup.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League schedule for Friday has the Yankees at Baltimore, the Angels at Tampa Bay, Toronto at Boston, Oakland at Minnesota, Cleveland at Kansas City, Detroit at the White Sox, and Texas at Seattle. C.J. Wilson is expected to get the ball for the Rangers in that last contest, while the Mariners send Felix Hernandez (11-11, 2.39 ERA) to the mound. Lefthander Wilson is coming off a short outing against the Yankees in which he gave up four runs on six hits over just three innings of work. Righthander Hernandez lost to the Angels last time out, surrendering seven runs in his 6 1-3 innings.

Over in the National League on Friday it’s then Arizona at Pittsburgh, Washington at Philadelphia, the Cubs at Florida, Atlanta at the Mets, Cincinnati at Houston, San Diego at St. Louis, Milwaukee at San Francisco, and Colorado at the Dodgers. Ubaldo Jimenez (18-6, 2.75 ERA) is slated to pitch for the Rockies on Friday night, with Hiroki Kuroda (10-12, 3.32 ERA) taking the hill for Los Angeles. Righthander Jimenez was stuck with a no-decision against the Diamondbacks last time out despite giving up just one run on six hits over his six innings of work. Righthander Kuroda is also coming off a hard-luck no-decision, surrendering one run on four hits in six innings against Houston.

Matt Rivers, who was the winningest handicapper ever—nobody came close—on a large network of sites says Friday is on the Mariners in the first 5 innings at 5 Dimes

A little unconventional play here as this is a first five inning play on the home M’s. Here is my logic and it’s fairly simple, Felix Hernandez is amazing. Yup that’s it, no rocket science, no crazy algorithms, that’s it.

Certainly Seattle’s offense has been awful and the team overall is a complete disaster. Ichiro has not even been very good this season and what appeared to be a promising season that started with a pitching staff that had three studs in Hernandez, Cliff Lee and Erik Bedard turned into a dreadful underachieving piece of garbage. With that said though Hernandez has been the best pitcher in baseball over the past few months and that is including everybody. The last start wasn’t good as King Felix allowed four earned but in the previous six starts the guy allowed a grand total of one earned run. Yes that’s right in the previous 45 innings he allowed one run. I know mind-boggling.

I don’t trust anything about this Seattle club including their offense, bullpen and pretty much everything else, save Hernandez, and the M’s are up against a very tough lefty in CJ Wilson and a first place Texas club that is well superior. But the King is truly amazing and very possibly will not allow a run in the first five innings. Granted Wilson may not either but to not really lay anything with Hernandez in this situation is well worth it. Think about it this guy has not allowed a run in five of his last seven starts.

We could be looking at a 0-0 push after five and if that is the case then so be it. But to get the best pitcher in the game on his home mound in Seattle and not really lay anything is a must play, period.

For more information: Yup, that’s right I don’t say the above lightly at all as I have a whopping four plays tonight including a monster raising of the bar 400,000* between Cal and Nevada.
