NFL Picks
Las Vegas Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs – 3:00 PM
The Raiders are heavy underdogs against the Chiefs, and the +13.5 line reflects Kansas City's dominance this season. However, divisional matchups tend to be tighter than expected, and the Raiders have shown resilience under interim head coach Antonio Pierce. Kansas City’s offense has been inconsistent in recent weeks, and large spreads like this are always risky to cover. While the Chiefs should win, the Raiders could keep it within two touchdowns, making this an intriguing bet.
Pick: Raiders +13.5
Final Score: Raiders 17 - Chiefs 19
College Football Picks
Oklahoma State @ Colorado – 12:00 PM
Deion Sanders' Colorado squad faces a tough Big 12 matchup against Oklahoma State. While the Buffaloes have struggled against high-caliber teams, Oklahoma State’s defense has shown vulnerability to explosive offenses. With Colorado's passing game likely to find mismatches, the -16.5 spread reflects a belief in their ability to outpace Oklahoma State and get back on track in a meaningful way.
Pick: Colorado -16.5
Final Score: Oklahoma St. 0 - Colorado 52
Oregon State @ Boise State – 12:00 PM
Boise State faces a tough road test against a disciplined Oregon State team. The Broncos thrive on their high-scoring offense, but this spread suggests confidence in their ability to handle the Beavers' physicality. Oregon State’s secondary has struggled against big plays, and Boise State's efficient attack should capitalize. If they can control the tempo, covering this large spread is achievable.
Pick: Boise State -17.5
Final Score: Oregon St. 18 - Boise St. 34
Minnesota @ Wisconsin – 12:00 PM
A classic Big Ten rivalry game with near-even odds. Wisconsin has the edge in the trenches and should rely heavily on their rushing attack to dictate the pace. Minnesota’s inconsistent offense gives the Badgers a slight advantage, and their defense could be the difference-maker in a low-scoring battle.
Pick: Wisconsin +1
Final Score: Minnesota 24 - Wisconsin 7
Mississippi State @ Ole Miss – 3:30 PM
The Egg Bowl always brings drama, and while Ole Miss is the superior team, rivalry games often defy expectations. Mississippi State’s defense is capable of slowing down the Rebels’ high-powered offense just enough to stay within the massive 25-point spread. Look for a hard-fought game with pride and bragging rights on the line.
Pick: Mississippi St. +25
Final Score: Mississippi St. 14 - Ole Miss 26
NBA Picks
Los Angeles Clippers @ Minnesota Timberwolves – 7:30 PM
The Clippers have a talented roster with stars like Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, but they’ve been inconsistent this season. However, against a Timberwolves team that has been up-and-down themselves, the six-point spread is generous. The Clippers have the defensive capability to slow down Minnesota’s key players, and if they can execute offensively, they should keep it close, if not win outright. This matchup could go down to the wire, making the +6 spread very valuable.
Pick: Clippers +6
Final Score: Clippers 92 - Timberwolves 93
Oklahoma City Thunder @ Los Angeles Lakers – 10:00 PM
The Thunder are one of the most exciting young teams in the league, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading the charge. They face a Lakers team that has struggled with consistency, especially on the road. With the Thunder's up-tempo play and pressure defense, they should be able to dictate the pace and cover the modest -2 spread. This is a great opportunity for Oklahoma City to extend their winning streak and build momentum against a Lakers team that has been hit-or-miss so far this season.
Pick: Thunder -2
Final Score: Thunder 101 - Lakers 93
