Good morning Pickswise Nation and welcome to Wise n’ Shine, your one-stop shop for everything you need to know to bet better today!
It’s an NFL Sunday after another great day of college football and we also have a strong MLB slate and EPL soccer to provide top-quality sports entertainment. Let’s get straight to it!
About Last Night
MLB Mega Parlay’s mega run continues
We’re on a stunning run of success with our mega parlays. John Hyslop cashed the mega parlay on Monday at 11/1, Andrew Ortenberg did it on Wednesday at 13/1, and yesterday Ricky Dimon did it again at 12/1 as the Dodgers -2.5, Rockies ML, and Phillies -1.5 brought it home for us. You won’t want to miss today’s mega parlay, which has odds of +1667!
Crimson Tide given a fright by Florida
Alabama was given a real scare by Florida on Saturday, hanging on to win 31-29 but falling a long way short of covering the 14-point spread. The Crimson Tide remain +200 favorites for the National Championship with FanDuel Sportsbook, but Georgia, which beat South Carolina 40-13, is now +250. The Bulldogs can still be had at +330 with DraftKings Sportsbook, which has Alabama at +175. Check out Ricky Dimon’s take on what we saw in College Football Week 3.
Today’s Slate
NFL Week 2 dominates the day
Kansas City against Baltimore on Sunday Night Football tops tonight’s card, but before then we’ve got some great games to enjoy include Patriots vs Jets, Rams vs Colts, Bills vs Dolphins, and Titans vs Seahawks. Check out our great NFL Week 2 betting guide, which acts as a hub to access all our parlays, picks, previews, and prop bets for today’s games.
There’s MLB and soccer action too
We’ve got a full 15-game MLB slate including Phillies vs Mets on ESPN at 7 pm ET. Check out our picks for all today’s MLB action here. The Sunday EPL schedule is headed by Tottenham vs Chelsea at 11.30 am ET. You can read all today’s EPL and MLS picks here.
Best Bet of the Day
Philadelphia Eagles +3 vs San Francisco 49ers
1pm ET
The Eagles are not getting any respect, but this team is actually good. Sure they played the Falcons, but they played them in Atlanta and they blew them out. That’s what good teams do to bad teams. This week they will be in front of their home crowd for the first time in a while and they may even win straight up. Take the points just to be on the safe side, though. Check out all today’s NFL best bets.
