Good Afternoon!
|
The first College Football Playoff rankings of the season landed last night, and the committee put Miami top at 8-0, with Georgia, Utah and Indiana behind them. The eyebrow-raiser is Notre Dame, fourth in the AP poll and nowhere near the top ten here. Then tonight brings a full NBA card with Mavs-Spurs and 76ers-Pistons on ESPN, and both exclusives are elsewhere again.
Here's what you need to know today.

Mark Lammey
NHL MONEYLINE PICK
|
Seattle Kraken
Moneyline (-135)
Seattle has been off the ice since last Friday, which ironically, was a loss to tonight's opponent - the Flames. However, this is actually going to be the fourth meeting between these teams this year, and the Kraken won each of the first two matchups in blowout fashion (6-1 both times). They're also a 4-2-0 team at home, while Calgary is 2-5-0 on the road with wins against the Sharks and Ducks. Seattle bounces back tonight.

Howard Bender
NFL SPREAD PICK
|
Jacksonville Jaguars
-9.5
This is the highest we will go before pivoting to the other side of this game, but considering the fact that the Ravens could be using Kedon Slovis as their starting quarterback against the No. 1 defense in the NFL, I think he can lay the 9.5 here. Ravens ATS numbers following big losses are also not good.

The committee's first top 25 is above with the reactions, and the NBA card, Mavs-Spurs, 76ers-Pistons and the Week 9 survivor picks fill in the rest. Miami sit top at 8-0 and Notre Dame are the name everyone is arguing about, with five more rankings to come before the field is named on December 6. Both exclusives go their own way tonight: Mark likes Seattle at home off a week's rest, having beaten Calgary 6-1 twice already this season, while Howard is laying 9.5 with Jacksonville against a Baltimore side that may be starting Kedon Slovis. Good luck tonight.
