(203) Stanford at (204) Virginia Tech: Spread
3:30pm EST - Nov 14/2026

THE PLAY: Stanford +16.5 (-102)

I played against Virginia Tech last week. The Hokies got hammered 51-28 at SMU. The Mustangs had a 569 to 417 edge in yards. Off that big loss and with Miami (followed by instate rival Virginia) on deck, I feel that the Hokies may have some trouble getting up for Stanford. The Cardinal have been known to pull off some big upsets. Don't be surprised when they give their hosts all they can handle.

(39) Philadelphia Flyers at (40) Vancouver Canucks: Moneyline
9:37pm EST - Nov 9/2026

THE PLAY: Vancouver Canucks 112

Here's a chance for the struggling Canucks to earn a rare victory. While Vancouver has the worst record in the NHL, the Flyers have the worst record in the Eastern Conference. Vancouver is rested and playing at home. The Flyers, 1-6-1 on the road entering Sunday's game at Calgary, are playing their second game in two days. They're already 0-3 in that situation this season. Don't be surprised when the Canucks pull off the upset.

(29) Philadelphia Flyers at (30) Calgary Flames: Moneyline
7:07pm EST - Nov 8/2026

THE PLAY: Calgary Flames -102

The Flames have swept the Flyers in back-to-back seasons. They won the two games at Calgary by scores of 5-1 and 6-3. Though both teams are off consecutive losses, the Flames are 5-4 at home while the Flyers are 1-6-1 on the road. The Flames convert 30% of their power-play chances and the Flyers only convert 16.36% of theirs. The Flames score 2.47 goals per game, which isn't very good. However, the Flyers manage only 2.17 g.p.g. which is the worst in the NHL. Go with Calgary
