We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Friday, including picks from the MLB, MLS and College Football. One pick is taken from each sport with a second pick from College Football. A winning ticket would give us a very nice payout with odds of +1303 at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Let's break down each of these plays.
College Football pick today: UTSA Roadrunners -4.5 over Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders (-110), 7:30 pm ET
In what could be the biggest letdown spot of the week, Middle Tennessee is a team I'm looking to fade on Friday. The Blue Raiders just knocked off Miami on the road as 3-touchdown underdogs, and now return home for a date with UTSA. This is almost the perfect scenario for the Roadrunners to start Conference USA play, and presents a great “sell high” spot for their opponent.
UTSA's offense is averaging more yards per play than the Blue Raiders and the Roadrunners have also been far more efficient on 3rd downs, converting at nearly a 59% clip. UTSA has been an excellent road team under Jeff Traylor, posting a 13-5 ATS record in its last 18 road games. The Roadrunners are also 7-3 against the number in their last 10 conference games. For that reason, backing UTSA will be the play tonight.
