I won with the Aces when these teams played each other Tuesday. Vegas won 86-76, ending Washington's 7-game winning streak. The home team has won both meetings this season. Not surprising as the Mystics are quite a lot better on their home floor. The Mystics would have stayed in Vegas after Tuesday, which can be distracting. The Mystics only average 78 ppg on the road. The Aces should hand them a second straight defeat. *good to -8

This is a free play on NC State.
The Cavs won 11 games last year, and I was on the right sight of several of those wins. I do expect regression, coming off a season where everything went their way. They won three games in overtime. I am not a big fan of transfer quarterback Beau Pribula, and while he is playing his first game with new receivers in a new system on a new team, CJ Bailey is in his third season under Dave Doeren. I'll take the points.

Take Indianapolis (#107) on the Moneyline
The ‘Daily Double’ video posted below has ‘free play’ winners for the Patriots vs the Colts and the Chargers vs the Texans in Thursday’s NFL Preseason action. Here’s a brief write-up for my take on the Colts as a ‘bet-on’ team in Week 1 of the Preseason.
The first rule of preseason is this — your opinions about how good or bad teams are going to be in the regular season don’t matter one bit in August. Betting NFL in August is about betting on information, not opinions. And one of the best ‘tried and true’ betting systems for August is to bet ON teams with backup quarterback battles. Tommy Devito is the clearly established backup in New England; rookie Behran Morten is likely to get the majority of second half snaps. But for Indy, Anthony Richardson and Riley Leonard are locked in a ‘high stakes’ battle for the backup QB job. That’s two QB’s who are familiar with the offense playing very meaningful snaps for Week 1 of preseason. Expect that to matter on the scoreboard. When laying less than a field goal in August, I prefer the moneyline; just asking teams to win instead of asking them to win by margin. This is a game that Indy should win. Take the Colts on the Moneyline

Hideki Matsuyama Top 20 (Including Ties)
Hideki Matsuyama enters the FedEx St. Jude Championship playing some of the best golf in the field. He has recorded three straight Top-10 finishes and five consecutive Top-20s, showing the consistency you want when backing a placement market.
TPC Southwind has also been one of his better stops on the PGA Tour. Over his last three appearances in this event, Matsuyama has finished 17th, 1st, and 16th, proving both his comfort level on the course and his ability to contend against elite competition. (thesun.co.uk)
His underlying metrics are just as impressive. Over the last 30 days, Matsuyama ranks 4th in this field in Strokes Gained: Total, and one of the biggest reasons is his precision off the tee. Accuracy is critical at TPC Southwind, where water hazards and penal rough reward players who consistently find fairways and avoid big mistakes. His elite ball-striking has put him in contention week after week.
With outstanding recent form, a proven track record at TPC Southwind, and a game that perfectly fits this course, Hideki Matsuyama Top 20 (Including Ties) is the play.

LAFC vs Queretaro
Leagues Cup, Wednesday, 10:30pm ET
Play: LAFC -1.5
Odds at Time of Release: -115 DraftKings
Line Parameter: Line good to -130
LAFC need a win to qualify, and a combination of other results, basically they also need at least two of Dallas, Chicago or Austin to draw or lose their games. LAFC have the worst goal difference than all teams above them, meaning that they will need to fix that. A simple 1-goal win might not suffice, as it would take them to a +2 goal difference while the teams above them are at +3 or better. To be safe, LAFC will need to win their match by at least a 2-goal margin and wait for good results from the other matches.
Queretaro are not exactly a bad team but they had a really bad tournament so far, losing 2-0 to Dallas and 3-0 to Seattle, now eliminated from the competition but it's anybody's guess as to whether they will throw the towel here or try to get a positive result back to Mexico. Not doing well on the road in 2026 (W2 D4 L5), with 4 of 5 away losses coming by 2+ goals.

Washington Commanders Over/Under 7.5 Regular Season Wins
4% Washington Commanders UNDER 7.5 Regular Season Wins (+105)
UPDATE 8/9 12:30 PM EST: Washington just lost their top OL LT Tunsil for probably the season, this line could move a little, get it in!
Washington went 5-12 last year, and I’m not buying a three-win jump.
Jayden Daniels played only 7 games in 2025 and dealt with a knee sprain, hamstring injury and dislocated elbow. He also led all NFL quarterbacks with 8.3 rushing attempts per game. After 148 carries as a rookie, his style continues to expose him to significantly more contact than the average QB. Durability has to be priced into this number.
Washington also replaced both coordinators. David Blough takes over the offense and Daronte Jones takes over the defense, and both will be first-time NFL play callers.
They’ve added some names on defense, but per PFF, only 2 projected defensive starters carry grades over 70. This was a bad defense last year, and I’m not convinced the makeover fixes it overnight.
They also have only 8 true home games, with the Colts “home” game being played in London, and they open @ Philadelphia and @ Dallas.
Looking at the first 11 games, I project Washington to be favored in only 1 or 2 of them.
I don’t need Washington to be bad.
7-10 cashes this ticket.
Coming off 5 wins, with Daniels’ injury history and rushing workload, two first-time play callers, a questionable defense and this schedule, 7.5 is too high.

This is a free play on TCU.
If you can still get a -6.5, grab it now because I don't expect that number to be available as we get close to kickoff. While the hire of Bobby Petrino could be impactful for the Tar Heels offense, it may take some time. The Horned Frogs have a new QB, and given he played at Harvard last year, there will be doubters. I expect to see a successful transition as he will be playing behind one of the best offensive lines in the BIG12, surrounded by returning talent at WR and RB. Davis Warren has more of an uphill battle in my opinion.

Kansas Under 5.5 Wins (+135)
Kansas has finished 5-7 in back-to-back seasons, and they've got a real shot to make it three in a row.
Does a two-time 5-win team suddenly find a sixth? I don't see where it comes from. The Jayhawks are hanging around the bowl bubble once again and falling just short. This year they've got a harder path with a downgrade at the position that matters most, quarterback.
Jalon Daniels is in the NFL after six years in Lawrence, and the job now belongs to Cole Ballard, a redshirt junior who arrived as a walk-on, worked his way up, and started two games back in 2023. His stat line: 108 passing yards, one touchdown, one interception, and a QBR under 40. Even the reporting that has him winning the job frames him as the safe game-manager over higher-ceiling Isaiah Marshall.
This is a team that can’t finish close games. They stalled in the red zone and misfired in the two one-score losses that would've made them bowl eligible last season and now they're handing the keys to a game-manager with a sub-40 career QBR. That's not how a 5-7 team finds a sixth win.
Their schedule does them no favors. Five true road games, and Arizona State in London. We see how losing that “across the pond” game fared last season for my Wildcats. The middle of the year stacks three road games in four weeks, and they close with two of their last three away from Lawrence. LIU and Middle Tennessee, two wins. After that, the road to a sixth runs through Missouri, the London trip, at Utah, at Kansas State, at TCU, at West Virginia, and home dates with Baylor, UCF, and a high caliber BYU. There are potentially two coin flips in that mix. 4-8 is the ceiling for the Jayhawks in 2026.

Oklahoma to Win SEC +1200
If you want a longer shot further down the board to win the SEC, Oklahoma stands out.
With a healthy Jackson Arvidson, John Mateer and 16 returning starters, they'll be a prime contender in this conference. The schedule at first glance looks tough, with road games at Michigan, Georgia in September. But they get the Red River versus Texas coming off the bye week and middle of the pack SEC from there on out. I’ve always been told it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish in the SEC… Oklahoma very well could be playing in the championship game in Atlanta in December.
