World Cup Betting Preview - For the United States, redemption's a theme in Qatar

<p>The NCAAF season continues with Week 6, and among many intriguing games scheduled for Saturday, October8, we’re covering this Big 12 tilt, so feel free to check out the best Horned Frogs vs. Jayhawks betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Both TCU and Kansas are looking to maintain their perfect records when they meet at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. The Horned Frogs are 7-point favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline/">BetOnline Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 67.5 points. These conference foes met once in 2021, and TCU won that game 31-28 in Fort Worth.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="h-horned-frogs-destroyed-the-sooners-at-home">Horned Frogs destroyed the Sooners at home</h2>



<p>The TCU Horned Frogs (4-0, 4-0 ATS) recorded their first conference win of the campaign in a 55-24 demolition job of the Oklahoma Sooners at home. For the second time this year, TCU scored 55+ points, while they covered a +5 spread with ease. The Horned Frogs totaled 668 yards opposite Oklahoma’s 355 and had seven first downs more than the Sooners (29-22).&nbsp;</p>



<p>Max Duggan completed 23 of 33 passes for 302 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions. He added 116 rushing yards and two touchdowns on just five carries. Kendre Miller led all the runners with 136 yards and a couple of scores on 13 attempts, while Taye Barber led all the receivers with 107 yards and a touchdown on three receptions. Dee Winters had two sacks, while Johnny Hodges recorded ten total tackles as he led his defense in this win.&nbsp;</p>



<p>WR Quincy Brown is bothered by an unknown injury, and it has yet to be determined how long he will be out. QB Chandler Morris has missed the last three games with a left knee injury, and it is uncertain if it will keep him out of the lineup versus Kansas on Saturday.</p>



<h2 id="h-jayhawks-edged-the-cyclones-at-home">Jayhawks edged the Cyclones at home</h2>



<p>The Kansas Jayhawks (5-0, 5-0 ATS) continued with excellent displays and recorded another victory. This time around, the Jayhawks beat the Iowa State Cyclones 14-11 at home and covered a +3.5 spread along the way. Kansas scored all of its 14 points in the space of six minutes in the second quarter. The visitors were better in total yards (313-213), first downs (20-10) and possession (35:02-24:51), but the hosts wanted this win more and got it.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Jalon Daniels completed 7 of 14 passes for 93 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions. The pass offense didn’t work here, but run offense was solid as the Jayhawks collected 112 yards and two touchdowns on 31 carries. Devin Neal led all the runners with 75 yards on 12 attempts, while Luke Grimm caught four passes for 46 yards. Defensively, Kansas had five sacks opposite Iowa State’s one.&nbsp; Ra'Mello Dotson and Rich Miller led the team with seven tackles apiece.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 id="h-trends">Trends:</h3>



<p><strong>TCU:</strong></p>



<ul><li>2-6 ATS in the last eight conference games</li><li>1-4 ATS in the last five road games vs. a team with a winning home record</li></ul>



<p><strong>Kansas:</strong></p>



<ul><li>8-0 ATS in the last eight games overall</li><li>6-0 ATS in the last six games following an ATS win</li><li>5-0 ATS in the last five conference games</li><li>4-0 ATS in the last four home games</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-tcu-horned-frogs-vs-kansas-jayhawks-pick">TCU Horned Frogs vs. Kansas Jayhawks Pick  </h2>



<p>Both teams have been impressive this season and are among 16 unbeaten in college football at the moment. It’s going to be a tight encounter that could go either way, but given the spread, I am going with the Jayhawks, like I did last week against the Cyclones. TCU has the 4<sup>th</sup> best offense in the country that averages 48.5 ppg, but I think the Jayhawks, who allow 16.0 ppg on average at home, will contain the visitors. One team will remain undefeated following this game, and I am not saying it’s going to be Kansas, but I believe they can cover.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: </strong>Take the Jayhawks at +7.5 (-120)</p>



<h2 id="h-the-total">The Total</h2>



<p>TCU and Kansas are combining for almost 89 points per game and around 500 passing yards per game, which means we could have a classic shootout and a high-scoring affair. I am pretty sure they will combine for around 60 points here, but I am going with Kansas’ defense to slow down TCU’s high-flying offense. That’s why I am not brave enough to bet on Over 67.5 points. Only one of the last ten H2H duels produced more than 67.5 points. Under is 5-2 in the Jayhawks’ last seven home games, while Under is 5-1 in Kansas’ previous six vs. a team with a winning record.<strong>Pick: </strong>Go Under 67.5 points (-110)</p>

<p>Fairfield’s season continued with a 91-66 loss to Yale on Saturday, November 23rd. Playing at home, the Stags entered the game as +10.5 point underdogs but failed to cover the spread.</p> 

<p>Fairfield found themselves in a deep hole early, trailing 46-26 at halftime. While they managed to score 40 points in the 2nd half, they also allowed 45 points during that stretch. The game’s total points of 157 went over the pre-game line of 139.5.</p><p>Fairfield's offense put up 66 points in their last game, shooting 40% from the field and 31.8% from beyond the arc.

<p>After an eventful Monaco Grand Prix, Formula 1 travels to the familiar Circuit de Barcelona-Cataluyna, featuring a new track layout guaranteed to bring higher speeds and faster laps times. Mercedes will see what they have in the new-look W-14, while many teams are expected to bring</p>



<p>While Max Verstappen and the RB19 are the clear, overwhelming favorites to win in Barcelona, there are still plenty of betting lines that provide real value, while Verstappen likely cruises to another win. Bangthebook has you in pole position in your betting version of the RB-19 with our Gran Premio de Espana betting preview.</p>



<p>Lights out, and away we go!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-max-verstappen-s-lonely-world-at-the-top">Max Verstappen’s Lonely World at the Top</h2>



<p>It’s not Red Bull versus Red Bull anymore; it might be Max Verstappen versus the entire grid, which is where we start our Gran Premio de Espana betting preview.</p>



<p>BetOnline has Verstappen listed at -260 to win the Grand Prix, while the other 19 drivers in the field are listed at +200.</p>



<p>Unless reliability issues or major contact on the race start affecting Verstappen’s RB-19, he’s likely to overcome whatever deficit is put in front of him and win the race. He’s won from deep on the grid numerous times in the last two seasons. That’s the type of pace advantage we’ve grown accustomed to Verstappen happening since the introduction of the new rules set in 2022. When you pair the race pace of the Red Bull with Verstappen’s magnificent technique, touch, and feel behind the wheel.</p>



<p>We’re taking Verstappen to defeat the field at -260 odds. We’re also taking the winning margin of +5 seconds or more at -260.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-gran-primio-de-espana-the-battle-for-p2">Gran Primio de Espana: the Battle for P2</h2>



<p>There have been two constants in Formula 1 in 2023: Max Verstappen being close to perfect and Fernando Alonso returning to the podium.</p>



<p>Aston Martin’s AMR-23 in Fernando Alonso’s hands was the biggest surprise to start the season. Alonso is the biggest threat to the Red Bulls and is still tenths of a second off in race pace. However, can Alonso claim his second straight P2 finish by beating Sergio Pérez in the other RB-19?</p>



<p>In the head-to-head betting line, Alonso is listed at +150, while Pérez is listed at -180. With the pace advantage, Pérez should have in the RB-19, he should be a larger favorite. Alonso has finished higher than Pérez this season: in Australia, after Pèrez binned it in qualifying 1, and last weekend in Monaco, where Pérez binned it in Qualifying 1 again.</p>



<p>While we're pulling for an Alonso win when something does happen to Verstappen’s car, we’re not pulling the trigger on this wager until we’ve seen if Pérez is on top of the RB-19 in practice.</p>



<p>If Pérez is not on the pace, the likelihood he bins it in qualifying will increase, opening the door for an Alonso head-to-head win at +150.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-who-s-upgrade-package-is-better">Who’s Upgrade Package is Better?</h2>



<p>Both Ferrari and Mercedes will have new upgrades on their respective cars, with Ferrari’s making their debut, while Mercedes will get their first real look at what the revamped W-14’s baseline is.</p>



<p>Mercedes (-130) is favored over Ferrari (+100) in a constructor head-to-head wager. So far this season, Mercedes have won 5 of the six head-to-head battles with Ferrari this season, and we expect that to continue as Mercedes learns the new W-14, finding more pace along the way.</p>

<p>There weren’t any odds listed on Bookmaker for who will win pole position at the time of publication.</p>



<p>When betting on qualifying, you need to remember that qualifying is the one area where Red Bull can be caught. And there is no single driver who is better over one lap than Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who has captured the only pole position that didn’t go to one of the Red Bull drivers.</p>



<p>Can Leclerc put his SF-23 on pole once again, or will it be an all-RB-19 front row? We’ll let you decide when the odds are released, and we’ve seen the cars on track for practice.</p>

William & Mary Tribe vs Appalachian State Mountaineers NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 11/24/24

<p>New circuit, same result?&nbsp;</p>



<p>Formula 1 makes its second trip to North America, landing at the long-tenured Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on the Île Notre Dame in the St. Lawrence River in Montréal, Quebec, Canada, with another likely Max Verstappen win on tap. With Red Bull’s RB-19 the dominant cream of the 2023 crop, oddsmakers have noticed and have various betting options other than Max Verstappen to win everything.&nbsp;</p>



<p>BangtheBook has searched the alternative betting lines to find our favored bets that will likely pay out at this weekend’s Grand Prix du Canada.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-red-bull-versus-the-world">Red Bull Versus the World</h2>



<p>Max Verstappen’s current race form in the RB-19 is something to marvel at. Hate the lack of competition if you must, but it's hard not to marvel at the ease at which Verstappen navigates his RB-19 around a circuit and shoots directly to the top of the timing charts on his first flying lap of any session.</p>



<p>The soon-to-be three-time Drivers’ World Champion Verstappen has won four of the six races this season, winning three by more than 5 seconds. With this info, we have two picks for you from BetOnline: Verstappen (-300) over the field (+240) and to take the over on the winning margin being 5 seconds or more&nbsp; (-280).</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-battle-of-the-bulls-verstappen-vs-perez">The Battle of the Bulls - Verstappen vs Pérez</h2>



<p>Red Bull has won every race this season and might win every race unless something goes terribly wrong for Verstappen.</p>



<p>There are two Battle of the Bulls betting lines we’re focusing on for qualifying and the Grand Prix. In the qualifying battle, Verstappen holds a 5-2 advantage over Pérez. However, Pérez did out-qualify Verstappen for the Azerbaijan GP Sprint Race on Pérez’s best weekend in Formula 1.</p>



<p>We’re taking Verstappen (-375) to out-qualify Pérez (+275), who has had awful qualifying performances in his last two races.</p>



<p>Verstappen holds a 5-2 Grand Prix advantage in the battle of the Bulls and is our pick to defeat Pérez in the head-to-head Grand Prix battle, with both drivers listed at the same odds from the qualifying head-to-head betting line.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-best-head-to-head-betting-options">The Best Head-To-Head Betting Options</h2>



<p>Alpha Tauri’s Yuki Tsunoda (-180) holds a 5-2 qualifying edge over Nick de Vries (+150) this season. We’re taking Tsunoda to out-qualify de Vries. Tsunoda (-240) holds a 6-1 advantage in the head-to-head battle over de Vries (+190) and is our pick to win the Alpha Tauri battle.</p>



<p>Staying with backmarker head-to-head battles, we’re taking Nock Hülkenberg (-155) to out-qualify Kevin Magnussen (+125), holding a 5-2 qualifying advantage. Hülkenburg has consistently been very good in qualifying, often putting the VF-23 into Q2 or Q3 clutch last-ditch flying laps.</p>



<p>For a couple of bank-the-win type picks, take Williams’ Alexander Albon at -900 in qualifying and -400 in the Grand Prix to outperform rookie teammate Logan Sargeant. Albon holds a 7-0 qualifying edge and a 5-2 Grand Prix advantage, although both times Sargeant out-finished Albon, it was due to retirements.</p>



<p>Fernando Alonso (-450) holds a 6-1 qualifying advantage over Aston Martin teammate Lance Stroll (+325). Alonso (-325) has out-finished Stroll (+250) in all seven Grand Prix this season.</p>



<p>However, has the Mercedes W-14 bridged the gap to Aston Martin with its new upgrades? One-time teammates Alonso (-120) and Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton (-110) are currently third and fourth in the Drivers’ Championship standings, with Alonso out-finishing Hamilton 5-2. However, we like the new look W-14 a lot, and we’re taking Hamilton to out-finish Alonso in Montréal.</p>

Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs Kennesaw State Owls NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 11/24/24

<p>The college basketball betting action goes on Thursday, December 9, 2021, with the marquee non-conference matchup at James H. Hilton Coliseum in Ames, so we bring you the best Iowa vs. Iowa State betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Another Cy-Hawk clash is upon us, and Iowa aims for its fourth straight victory over Iowa State. The Hawkeyes opened as 4.5-point road favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline/">BetOnline Sportsbook</a>, while the totals are listed at 152.0 points.</p>



<h2>Iowa hopes to snap its two-game skid</h2>



<p>After winning their first seven games in 2021-22, the Iowa Hawkeyes (7-2; 6-3 ATS) have dropped two straight contests at No. 2 Purdue 77-70 and to Illinois 87-83. They’ve covered a huge 15.5-points spread against the Boilermakers on the road, but the Hawkeyes failed to satisfy the odds as 3.5-point home favorites against the Fighting Illini this past Monday.</p>



<p>Sophomore forward Keegan Murray leads the way for the Hawkeyes, averaging 23.9 point, 8.0 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game. Iowa had to replace Luka Garza, who’s been an offensive focal point for four years, and Murray has done a great job so far this season.</p>



<p>The Hawkeyes are No. 20 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 21 in the latest KenPom rankings. They are scoring 118.1 points per 100 possessions (5<sup>th</sup> in the country) while surrendering 98.1 in a return (96<sup>th</sup>). Iowa is 37<sup>th</sup> in the nation in field goal percentage (48.7%) and 52<sup>nd</sup> in 3-point percentage (37.6%).</p>



<h2>Iowa State continues to roll on the back of its defense </h2>



<p>The No. 17 Iowa State Cyclones improved to 8-0 SU and 5-3 ATS following a 64-58 victory at the Creighton Bluejays this past Saturday. Once more, the Cyclones put on a strong defensive performance and managed to cover a 5.5-point spread on the road.</p>



<p>Iowa State forced Creighton into 21 turnovers. The Cyclones held the Bluejays to 31.6% shooting from beyond the arc while making seven of their 14 attempts from deep. Senior guard Izaiah Brockington led the way with 12 points, seven rebounds, and a couple of steals, while junior G Caleb Grill added 16 points off the bench.</p>



<p>Brockington is a key player for Iowa State, averaging 16.0 points and 7.5 rebounds a night. He’s shooting 47.5% from the field and 44.4% from beyond the 3-point line. The Cyclones are No. 22 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 66<sup>th</sup> in the KenPom rankings. They are scoring 103.9 points per 100 possessions (127<sup>th</sup> in the country) and yielding 92.9 in a return (40<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Iowa:</strong></p>



<ul><li>4-1 ATS in the last five games overall</li><li>4-0-1 ATS in the last five games against the Big 12 Conference&nbsp;</li><li>11-3 ATS in the last 14 games played in December</li></ul>



<p><strong>Iowa State:</strong></p>



<ul><li>0-5-1 ATS in the last six games against Iowa</li><li>0-5 ATS in the last five games against the Big Ten Conference</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-iowa-vs-iowa-state-pick">Iowa vs. Iowa State Pick</h2>



<p>The lack of height will be a problem for the Cyclones in this matchup. They rank 61<sup>st</sup> in the nation in the opponent field goal percentage (39.3%) and 21<sup>st</sup> in the opponent 3-point percentage (26.5%), but slowing down the Hawkeyes will be a tall order.</p>



<p>Iowa is not an elite defensive team, but the Cyclones’ offense hasn’t impressed thus far. The Hawkeyes should have enough firepower to outscore their rivals, and, hopefully, cover a 4.5-point spread.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Iowa Hawkeyes -4.5 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>The over is 9-2 in Iowa’s last 11 games overall. On the other side, the under is 5-2 in Iowa State’s previous seven outings at any location. The Cyclones need their best defensive game to win this clash, but we shouldn’t expect to see a low-scoring affair.</p>



<p>The line is a tricky one at 152.0 points, though neither team prefers to play at a slow pace. Iowa State averages 69.2 possessions per 40 minutes (142<sup>nd</sup> in the country), while Iowa registers 72.1 (31<sup>st</sup>). The over is 11-2 in the last 13 meetings between the Hawkeyes and Cyclones, and seven of their previous eight encounters have produced 152 or more points in total.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over 152.0 points at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>
