THE PLAY: USC -32.5 (-110)
This is one of the biggest mismatches in the month of August. USC is loaded with talent and looking to build off last year's finish. Missouri State, making its FBS debut, will be outclassed all over the field. Recall that the Trojans were last seen, defeating Texas A&M in the 35-31 in the Las Vega Bowl last December. The Trojans erased a 17-point deficit along the way, their biggest bowl comeback ever. Lincoln Riley commented: “In some ways it was kind of a poetic ending to the season. I’m incredibly proud of this group. The resiliency that they’ve shown. I told them there’s a toughness and a hardness developing in this program right now. You can look at a lot of different points throughout this season and certainly tonight and you see that. I have a lot of excitement about that. Our motto is ‘Fight On!’, and this team really embodies that." Last season, the Trojans began with a win over LSU and followed it up with a 48-0 drubbing of Utah State, a game they were laying -31 points for. Knowing that much tougher games lie ahead, the Trojans will take advantage of this early mismatch to build confidence with another one-sided blowout victory. *good up to -34
Ben Burns DOMINATED pro AND college football last season, ranking as WagerTalk's #1 overall football champion
THE PLAY: Denver Broncos -7.5 (-110)
The Broncos are going to be a popular “survivor” pick in Week 1. Nothing's ever certain in the NFL but they should be a relatively safe choice. The Titans are likely to have one of the worst defenses in the NFL and the Broncos are expected to have one of the best. The Broncos also figure to have a good shot at covering the spread. The Titans were dismal last year and they're expected to finish with only five or six wins this season. The Broncos, on the other hand, are projected to finish with nine or 10. Having lost their first two games last season, they're going to be determined to get off to a better start. They should pull away for a double-digit victory.
