Las Vegas - When you're down 1-0 at home in a five game series, it's not pretty. But help is on the way for the Braves who have 21 game winner Kyle Wright ready to even the series. It's not gonna be easy because Zack Wheeler has been really solid the last month for the Phillies. But Wright is on a WHOLE other level at home in Atlanta. Since June, Kyle has started 11 times in the ATL and has NOT lost. Ten straight wins with one no decision, which the Braves wound up winning.

Las Vegas - As most of you who sit at my table know, I never bet on or against the Yankees. Why? Because I bleed pinstripes. But there is another game that caught my eye, and it's the Dodgers over the Padres.

Las Vegas - EIGHTY NINE is the number we're working with. Last season, the Chiefs CRUSHED the Raiders in Kansas City 48-9 and busted 'em up in Vegas as well, 41-14.

K.C. has won eight of the last nine in this AFC West rivalry, and 13 of the last 15.

Las Vegas - There's Gino's Pizza and then there's Geno Smith. We're here to tell you about the QB, not the pizza. After Russell Wilson packed his bags for Denver, Geno has moved into the starting slot, and MAN is he rocking. He was pretty accurate last season in limited action, hitting on 65 of 95 for 68.4%. This season, he is OFF THE CHAIN, hitting on 102 of 132 for a RIDONKULOUS 77.3%. Yea, lemme scream at you, SEVENTY SEVEN POINT THREE PERCENT!

Las Vegas - Props to Brian Kelly and his family for committing $1 million to the Tiger Athletic Foundation to support construction of LSUs new athletic training room and recovery suite. Kellys donation is the largest by a sitting head coach in LSU history. BRAVO! Still NOT gonna win you a game. Lemme throw some numbers at you and tell you why they don't always mean squat. So, the LSU pass defense has allowed only five TDs in 137 attempts so far this season. Amazing right?
