Free pick: Florida State Seminoles vs. Clemson Tigers

Yes it is probably the strongest betting days in years for those who track the top football handicappers. Among the free picks is one from superstar Matt Rivers.

Rivers has bet on Florida State +9 points at Clemson, using BetUs Sportsbook. I don’t care how inept and pathetic and horrific Bobby Bowden’s team has looked at times. Nor do I care how CJ Spiller and the Clemson Tigers are playing their best ball of the season right now. This number is too darn overinflated and this thing reminds me of BYU for the Seminoles.
 
Nobody gave FSU a chance in Provo and it appears to be deja vu all over again right here in Death Valley.
 
Spiller is lightning fast and great and the Tigers are certainly a dangerous team but they are perenially an underachieving squad that never does anything in the end and today may prove that once again. I am just not scared of Clemson as a whole, even fully admitting that Spiller can be God at times, and to get a guy in Christian Ponder who has been great and a potential Heisman Trophy winner next season plus a touchdown and around a field goal is preposterous.
 
FSU’s defense at times is horrible and Mickey Andrews is just playing out the string after announcing this is his last season. But FSU still has a lot of athletes, maybe not as many in years’ past, but all in all enough for sure to rise up today and at the very worst be competitive in this still national spotlight type of a game.
 
Dabo Swinney’s team has come to life for sure these past three games including winning in overtime at Miami in upset fashion but I do not trust Swinney nor can I ever trust this Clemson program when they are expected to do well in such a spot.
 
Say what you want about Bowden or the ‘Noles, they have won their last two games, including the great second half comeback win at North Carolina and at 4-4 right now have a shot to finish up 7-5 with that eventual loss at Gainesville to Tim Tebow and the Gators.
 
The value in this thing with FSU is too good to pass up. There is still a ton of ability on the visitors’ sideline and to get such a handsome number back against “Clemson” is a steal.

NCAA Football Odds – Don’t Expect A Shootout When Buckeyes, Nittany Lions Hook Up

Whatever the posted total is in your sportsbook for Saturday’s Big Ten showdown between No.11 Penn State and No.16 Ohio State, consider the under, which has been the result for four of their last five meetings.

Ohio State vs Penn State odds – Saturday, November 7, 3:30 PM ET

The Buckeyes (7-2, 4-1) pounded New Mexico State 45-0, but don’t be surprised, sportsbook players: Ohio State is not an offensive juggernaut. The Buckeyes are 63rd in the nation in offense, including 94th through the air, and quarterback Terrelle Pryor has struggled this year, thanks in part to some poor play-calling by coach Jim Tressel. Pryor was a darkhorse in many sports picks for the Heisman award, but it seems that Tressel still hasn’t figured out how to use his dual-threat pivot.

The Nittany Lions (8-1, 4-1) dropped Northwestern 34-13 on the road, and they’re a much more balanced offensive squad than the Buckeyes as they’re 33rd on the ground, powered by Evan Royster, or you can face Darryl Clark and the No.34-ranked aerial attack. Penn State has been on a mission since their upset home loss to Iowa, who lead the Big Ten, and this will be their first major sportsbook test since then.

Sportsbook odds favor the Nittany Lions by five points at home, and the Buckeyes would love nothing more than to avenge last year’s 13-6 loss at the Horseshoe at the hands of Penn State. This should be a low-scoring as the Nittany Lions are fifth in the nation in points allowed, while the Buckeyes are sixth in the country. Outside of Ohio State‘s 37-17 win at Happy Valley, their recent meetings have been defensive slugfests, and this is looking to follow that trend. The Buckeyes really don’t have many outside threats besides Pryor, while the Nittany Lions can go to Royster to take the pressure off of Clark, which also brings the play-action pass into play. The Buckeyes won’t win, or at least share, their fifth straight Big Ten title, and the Nittany Lions will keep their hopes alive.

NCAA football picks: Penn State -5

NBA Free Picks

White hot sports handicapper Matt Rivers has another free winner today on the Nuggets at Heat. BetUs Sportsbook has Miami -1.
 
I’m going to roll with the red hot boys from Denver today as my comp winner. We all saw Carmelo and the fellows get hyped last season only to get outclassed and fall short against Kobe and the Lakers. Well that really was a lesson that George Karl’s team has to work even harder if they are going to break through and become an elite team. So far a week plus into the season that lesson has been learned.
 
Let’s face it Denver is a supremely talented team and at 5-0 have show this on numerous occasions already. I’m not at all saying that going to South Beach and taking care of business is going to come easy as Dwyane Wade is awesome and the Heat are playing very good ball early on with that 4-1 mark but in the end I will put my chips on the visitors.
 
Melo can fill it up and somewhat offset Wade and after that, major advantage Denver. Karl’s crew is absolutely oozing with talent and now Ty Lawson is proving himself to be a baller to go along with Anthony, Billups, Nene, Martin and others. These guys seem to be on a mission early on as they are scoring points in bushels and appearing much focused.
 
At some point the Nuggs will lose that is the obvious of the obvious but I don’t see what is still a very mediocre Heat team being the first loss.  
 
The pick: Denver +1. Matt says the final score will be 111-104 in favor of Denver.
