Bet The RedBlacks and the Points in Friday's CFL Tilt

The featured Friday night matchup in Week 6 of the CFL regular season is a rematch between the East Division Ottawa RedBlacks and the West Division Winnipeg Blue Bombers. These two inter-division foes met two weeks ago in Ottawa with the Blue Bombers cruising to a 29-14 victory closing as three-point road underdogs. This time around, Winnipeg is a heavy 10.5-point favorite at home on the CFL betting board at BetAnySports online sportsbook.

As part of my CFL coverage for the popular sports betting website, Ask the Bookie, I have made the RedBlacks my 'Underdog Pick of the Week' as heavy road underdogs. Winnipeg is the only undefeated team in the CFL at 4-0 both straight-up and against the spread, but the early results throughout the nine-team league point to quite a bit of parity between most of the teams. Ottawa is 2-2 SU overall with a 1-3 record ATS. One of the early wins was a stunning 32-28 upset over Calgary closing as a nine-point road underdog. While I am not sure if the RedBlacks can win this game SU on the road, I am betting that they can keep things close enough to cover.

The following link to Ask the Bookie is my complete game preview of Friday night's clash.

Betting on 2019 SEC Win Totals

One of the most popular preseason college football bets is the OVER and UNDER on projected wins. The betting odds at BetAnySports online sportsbook cover almost every Division IA team in the five major conferences as well as several of the top teams in the other five Mid Majors. While it would be extremely helpful to have a crystal ball as a definitive edge in placing a few winning bets, breaking down a team's schedule is the next best thing.

When you are one of the best teams in the nation such as Clemson and Alabama, the OVER/UNDER comes down to running the table in the 12-game regular season or getting tripped up with a bad loss somewhere along the way. The next tier of teams will have to navigate their way through a few trap games along the way. The final group is hoping to notch enough wins to extend their season with a bowl game.

As part of my ongoing series for the popular sports betting site Scores & Stats, this week I took a closer look at the top teams in the SEC to find the best betting value in the current win total odds at BetAnySports. Please click through the link below for the full report.

Calgary at Hamilton Highlights CFL Week 5 Slate

Heading into Week 5 of the CFL regular season, the defending Grey Cup Champion Calgary Stampeders face an important test on the road this Saturday night against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The Stampeders are 2-1 straight-up (1-2 against the spread) and a game behind Winnipeg in the West Division standings. The Tiger-Cats are 3-1 both SU and ATS in first place in the East, but they are coming off a bad loss to Montreal as heavy double-digit road favorites.

BetAnySports took their time releasing the betting lines for this week's CFL games, but Hamilton eventually opened as a four-point home favorite. As part of my weekly sports betting coverage for the popular site 'Ask the Bookie', I am always on the lookout for high-value underdogs. Calgary fits the bill this week in a game I have it winning SU. For my complete game preview and free betting pick, please click through the link below to Ask the Bookie.

Going With the OVER in BC at Calgary

Saturday's featured matchup in the CFL is a West Division battle between the British Columbia Lions and the Calgary Stampeders in a 7 p.m. start at McMahon Stadium. I made this game my "best bet" of the week at part of my coverage of the CFL for the popular sports betting site, SBR Picks. Calgary is listed as a heavy 10.5-point home favorite and BetAnySports online sportsbook has set the total at 53.5 points.

I bet the OVER at 52.5 points earlier in the week and the betting public tends to agree given the one-point move in that same direction leading up to game time. The Lions are 0-2 out of the gate behind a defense that has allowed a combined 72 points. Calgary scored 28 points in a Week 1 loss to Ottawa ahead of last week's bye. I am not sure if the Stamps can cover the 10.5 points in a game they should win straight up, but I feel pretty good about each of these teams scoring enough points to cash in on that OVER bet,

Harvick Eyes First Checkered Flag at Chicagoland

Kevin Harvick knows how to win Cup Series races. So much so, that he led the way in the 2018 racing season with eight trips to Victory Lane. Kyle Busch also belongs on that list after matching that total in the same season. The next driver on the list was Martin Truex Jr. with four victories. Joey Logano had the last laugh by winning the only race that mattered to win that season's racing title. All four drivers are in the thick of things in the current Cup Series point standings with one major point of difference.

Flash forward to the first 16 point races of the 2019 campaign and Busch has kept up his end of the deal with four victories under his belt driving the No. 18 Toyota while Harvick is still looking for his first point-race win of the year. To say that the No. 4 Ford is due would be a mass understatement. Truex won last week on the road course at Sonoma to tie Busch with four wins and Logano has crossed the finish line first in two races this year.

BetAnySports online sportsbook has Harvick listed as a +450 second-favorite to get that first win this Sunday in the Camping World 400 at Chicagoland. Kyle Busch is the favorite to win at +330 with Truex third on the list at +550 followed by Logano at +880 odds to win. As part of my weekly coverage of NASCAR's Cup Series for the popular sports betting website SBR Picks, I have broken down the entire field for this Sunday's race to come up with the best value in BatAnySports' betting odds to win.

CFL Week 2 Top Betting Pick

Week 2 of the new CFL season features an interesting West Division tilt on Friday night between the British Columbia Lions and the Edmonton Eskimos. The Lions lost their season opener to Winnipeg both straight-up and against the spread as slight one-point home underdogs. Edmonton got past Montreal at home in Week 1 but it failed to cover as an eight-point favorite.

The Eskimos are looking to extend their current five-game SU winning streak against BC at home as four-point favorites and BetAnySports has set the total line at 55.5 points for this 9 p.m. start at Commonwealth Stadium.

I cashed in on my Week 1 ‘best bet’ for SBR Picks with the OVER on the Blue Bombers’ 33-23 victory against the Lions with the closing line set at 51 points. This week, I am going against BC as a road underdog. My complete game preview and free CFL pick can be found at the link below on the popular sports betting site SBR Picks.
