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
Nobody gave FSU a chance in
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
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.

The Buckeyes (7-2, 4-1) pounded
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.
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

Warner will outgun Cutler, get Bears back on track
Neither the Bears nor Cardinals can make up their mind. Both oscillate from brilliant victory to crushing defeat, and momentum has been non-existence. Perhaps this Sunday matchup will spark something and get one of them rolling… but probably not. So who should you take at the sportsbook this weekend?
Sunday, November 9 at
NFL odds: Bears -3
The Cardinals offense was in flux last week, to say the least. Kurt Warner’s five interceptions highlighted an awful day that culminated in a 35-21 home loss to the Panthers. Receiver Anquan Boldin is struggling with an ankle sprain and has been severely limited, but that’s no excuse—Warner has plenty of good targets to choose from. Warner now has 11 touchdowns and 11 interceptions this season; he hasn’t been able to recapture the magic of last season’s Super Bowl run.
The Bears finally got a nice contribution from the running game, racking up 170 yards and two scores. Problem is, 85 of those yards came from a back-up and quarterback Jay Cutler. Matt Forte ground out 90 yards and the two touchdowns but it took him 26 carries to do it—a 3.5 average. Cutler continued his blase season, much to the confusion of many sports betting system, and went 17/30 for 225 yards, no touchdowns and a pick. He has an underwhelming 80.8 passer rating and, like Warner, 11 touchdowns to 11 interceptions.
Both teams are up and down, but Arizona’s offense has proven to be much more explosive, even with Warner struggling last week.
