Sport Recap of Last Night
CFB Parlay Strikes Gold at +610 Odds!
The college football season began with a bang as our Thursday Week 1 picks and parlay hit the jackpot at +610 odds! Despite missing starting QB Cam Rising, Utah triumphed over Florida 24-11 on Thursday night, scoring a 70-yard TD on their opening play and employing a 2 QB system while Rising recovers from a knee injury. Our pick of under 43.5 in the Nebraska vs. Minnesota game was never in doubt as the Golden Gophers secured a 13-10 victory with a last-minute field goal.
A Day to Remember for Ronald Acuna Jr.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. had a day he’ll cherish forever, tying the knot in the morning before launching a grand slam in the 2nd inning as the Braves edged out the Dodgers 8-7. Earlier in the day, the Marlins defeated the Nationals 6-1, and our top MLB player prop bet paid off handsomely.

Best Sport Bet of the Day
MLB: Houston Astros -1.5 over New York Yankees (+100)
8:10 pm ET, Amazon
The reigning AL Cy Young winner, Justin Verlander, enters this start on an 11-inning scoreless streak and is delivering the best baseball of the season. In his three starts against the Yankees this season, Verlander has yielded only 3 runs and 12 hits while notching 16 strikeouts across 19 innings. On the opposing side is Carlos Rodon, once hailed as New York’s ace but currently sporting a disappointing 5.97 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 8 starts. Rodon, a southpaw, must contend with an Astros lineup that has tallied 52 runs in the last 5 games, possibly resulting in a resounding victory for the Astros. Dive into our complete Yankees vs. Astros predictions.
