College Football Season Subscription of Stephen Nover

I went 67-39 (63 percent) in college football in 2022 as verified by Vegas Insider by combining many handicapping factors such as matchup analysis, statistics, history, weather and situational elements. Information is the key. I'm fortunate that I have many sources to rely on. Many stem from having been a sportswriter/sports editor for daily newspapers in the Midwest, South and West for more than 20 years and having been the sports gaming writer for the Las Vegas Review-Journal for 13 years while also having covered the UNLV football team as the team beat writer for several years. I have the knowledge, experience and resources necessary to win.

Toronto deserves to be favored on the road against the Lakers given LA's bad form, horrendous scheduling situation and multiple injuries.

The Lakers lost, 132-116, to the Trail Blazers in Portland last night. LA did not have Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves and center Deandre Ayton in that defeat. Marcus Smart scored 25 points for the Lakers, but limped off the court midway through the fourth quarter and did not return.

Reaves remains sidelined. The others are questionable. Doncic is dealing with groin soreness. It wouldn't surprise if LeBron James sat out, too, since this is a back-to-back spot for the Lakers. This also marks the Lakers' fifth game in seven days.

The 25-18 Raptors have a winning record in their last eight games. They have been in Los Angeles since Friday when they lost to the hot Clippers in overtime.

The Lakers are anything but hot. They have dropped five of their last six games. Toronto ranks sixth defensively allowing 112.3 points per game. Both Scotty Barnes and Brandon Ingram have returned from injury for Toronto.

The Lakers rank 20th defensively surrendering an average of 117.3 points per game. They are 28th in defensive field goal percentage. LA  is allowing an average of 126.7 points during its last four games.

Midnight strikes here for the Patriots. I base this opinion on Houston having more playoff experience, the superior defense and New England's weak schedule catching up to them.

Nothing against Drake Maye, who has been fantastic, but the Patriots' fattened their record against extremely weak competition. The Bills were the only playoff team they met during their last 13 regular season games.

The Chargers were the best defense the Patriots went up against all season. They held New England to 16 points last week. The Texans defense is better. It ranks in the top three in points per game allowed (17.4), yards per game allowed (277.2) and takeaways (29). Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson are the best edge pass rushing duo in the NFL. They combined for 27 sacks.

C.J. Stroud got better during the second half of the season, ranking 8th in expected points per play since Week 9. Stud wide receiver Nico Collins is out with a concussion. Houston is deep at wide receiver, though.
