Cincinnati Reds vs. St Louis Cardinals (MLB) - Sep 3, 2010 8:15 PM EDT
Play: Total: 8/-125 Under Play Title: Free Pick
A big showdown in St. Louis, which means both managers will use their best relief pitchers and its a key series for the Cards if they plan on making a playoff push. And the starters are outstanding. Bronson Arroyo (14-8, 3.82 ERA) has a 2.95 ERA his last three starts, a veteran fired up for a pennant race. Jaime Garcia (2.33 ERA) of the Cardinals is 3-0 against the Reds this season and on a tear, with no runs allowed his last three starts! UNDER is the safe play here.
Tulsa vs. East Carolina (NCAAF) - Sep 5, 2010 2:00 PM EDT
Play: Point Spread: 8/-102 East Carolina Play Title:
Free Play from Doc’s Sports. #104 Take East Carolina over Tulsa (Sunday 2 pm ESPN 2) A new era for the Pirates starts on Sunday, as Ruffin McNeil takes over as the new head coach of East Carolina. Former Coach Skip Holtz left and took with him much of the talent from last year’s 9-5 team. That being said, I just do not believe that the Golden Hurricanes are good enough to be able to cover this number on the road. East Carolina won at Tulsa this year by a score of 44-17, as a four point underdog. WR Dwayne Harris is still on the team and I expect him to go over 1000 yards receiving on the year. The Golden Hurricanes return only five starters on defense and I expect this to be a high scoring game with the underdog covering easily. East Carolina is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Conference USA games. Don’t miss Doc’s Sports weekend card, featuring a top play from the Big Ten, a conference Doc has owned for 39 years.
Play: Point Spread: 11/-105 Purdue Play Title: Tom Stryker's Free College Football Play
Notre Dame is going to be a good football team by the end of the season. New head coach Brian Kelly has done a phenomenal job getting the Fighting Irish back into good physical shape and they’re starting to find confidence they never really had under former coach Charlie Weis. Unfortunately, in this battle for the coveted Shillelagh Trophy, Purdue will provide the rebuilding Irish team with a tremendous challenge.
It won’t be tough for the Boilermakers to find motivation for this game. If you recall, ND QB Jimmy Clausen hit TE Kyle Rudolph for a touchdown pass with 25 ticks left on the clock as the Irish escaped Ross-Ade Stadium last year with a stunning 24-21 victory.
According to the history book, the Boilers are an ugly 1-13 SU in their last 14 visits to Notre Dame Stadium. That fact is noted. However, this Purdue team really started to peak as 2009 ended picking up victories in four of its last six games. One of those wins came against a Ohio State team that could very easily be one of 2010’s best programs. I’ve got a hunch that momentum will carry over and the Boilermakers will be able to find some success against a UND team that has installed new schemes on both sides of the ball.
There are technical reasons that support this investment too. Notre Dame has really struggled as a home favorite posting a weak 30-51-1 ATS record including just 4-12 ATS in this role matched up against a Big 10 foe. As a double-digit favorite, the Irish have lost their fight notching a bankroll-busting 5-13 ATS mark including just 2-11 ATS in their last 13 at home in this role. On the visitor’s side of the field, Purdue has found success priced as a touchdown dog (+7) or more posting a reliable 33-22 ATS mark including a perfect 7-for-7 in this role in non-conference action.
The Irish have come favored 24 times against Big 10 foes dating back to 1994 and were only able to cash five winning tickets. The Boilermakers haven’t forgotten about last year’s near miss and they’ll be out for a little payback on Saturday afternoon. Grab all the points you can here men! Take Purdue! Thank you and best of luck, Tom Stryker.
Arizona U vs. Toledo (NCAAF) - Sep 3, 2010 8:00 PM EDT
Play: Point Spread: -16.5/-106 Arizona U Play Title: Free Football Friday
Arizona finished up their regular season strong by winning two road games including the last one over 18th ranked USC, but were clearly overmatched in their bowl game losing 33-0 to Nebraska. Toledo finished last year losing four of five games and were just 3-3 at home in 2009. Look for Arizona to come out hungry and destroy Toledo infront of their home crowd with a monster win to start the season on a winning note.

Detroit Tigers vs. Kansas City Royals (MLB) - Sep 3, 2010 8:10 PM EDT
Play: Total: 8.5/-123 Under Play Title: RV: FRIDAY FREE PICK + 2 BIG 100% SYSTEM WINNERS INFO
Friday 5* 100% 14-0 NL Totals System + 100% Blowout System lead BIG Friday Card. Thursday sweeps 3-0
On Friday the MLB Free play is on to play under the total in the Detroit at KC game. What we want to do is play the under for road dogs off a road dog win that scored 10 or more runs in vs an opponent off a home dog loss. These games have played under all 6 times the past 8 years. The system is rare so the sample is small. However KC has also played under all 4 times as home favorite form -150 to -175 this year. Tonight KC has Z. Grenke making the start. In his starts vs the Tigers he has allowed just 1 run in 18 innings. He has gone under the total in his last 3 starts, while posting a 2.41 era. Look for J.Bonderman to put forth a much improved effort here tonight resulting in the game going under the total. On Friday I have 2 100% MLB System plays. One of which wins by 4 runs per game. The other is a total that has won 14 straight times. For the free play take the under in the Detroit at KC game. RV

MISSOURI -12: Pretty simple here RON ZOOK is a terrible coach. Last year ILL was favored and still were killed by MIZZOU. Look for Missouri offense to be even better than the impressive year of 2009. Defensively the Tigers might not be quite as good as last year but with the terrible offense of ILL it won't take much. Easy win here as MISSOURI continues the domination of this series!

Play On: Washington -105 (Hernandez/Duke) Listed
Washington is 57-77 overall this year while Pittsburgh comes in with a 44-89 overall record on the season. Washington is 40-36 after a loss this year. Looks like they should bounce back strong tonight. Pittsburgh is 3-18 this year when playing on Friday. Pittsburgh is 26-65 this year against right handed starters. Pittsburgh is 6-20 this year when playing against a team with a losing record in the 2nd half of the season. Pittsburgh has lost 5 of their last 6 games overall.

Livian Hernandez is 9-9 with a 3.49 ERA overall this year and has a 3.25 ERA on the road this season. Zach Duke is 6-12 with a 5.17 ERA overall this season. Washington is 3-0 against Pittsburgh this year. We'll recommend a small play on Washington tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky
Play: Point Spread: 3/-122 Denver Broncos Play Title: Jeff's Week One NFL Free Pick
Denver Broncos +3
The Broncos secondary will be able to shutdown Jacksonville's passing attack without much effort. Denver will than focus on stopping the run with only their front seven. Maurice Jones-Drew injury is a minor concern and he is coming off a heavy workload in 2009-10. Denver has a history of starting fast so don't be surprised if the Broncos win this game straight-up. Take Denver plus the points!
Play: Money Line: 102 Cleveland Indians Play Title: FREE PLAY
FREE PLAY
1 Unit on Cleveland Indians +102
The Indians have won their last six games in Seattle, and I like them to make it seven straight tonight. Carmona has struggled in recent starts, but he is a rock solid 6-4 with a 3.99 ERA on the road. Plus, he is 2-1 with an ERA of just 2.36 in his career against the Mariners. Seattle's southpaw French is coming off a quality outing against Minnesota, but I'm not sold. When pitching on 4 days of rest, he is just 1-5 on the money line in his last 6 starts. Plus, the Indians have done their best work at the plate against lefty starters this season, hitting .259 (.329 on-base %) and scoring 4.1 runs per game. Those numbers may not get you out of your seat, but consider that Seattle is only hitting .236 (.297 on-base %) and scoring 3.3 runs per game against righties. Cleveland is an impressive 8-2 in road games vs. an AL team with an on base percentage of .320 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons, defeating these teams by an average score of 6.1 to 3.6. Take the Tribe.
