Let's break down each of these plays.
MLB pick today: Texas Rangers ML over Los Angeles Angels (-150), 2:05 pm ET
Texas can close out this series with a win, as they will have their ace on the mound. Lefty Martin Perez was once a top AL Cy Young candidate, and owned the Angels the last time he faced them. In fact, he's done so to most teams all season. If you look back at his only struggles in the past 2 and half months, they've only been to the AL-best Astros. When Perez last took on the Angels, he held them to just 1 run and 3 hits over 7.0 innings. Because Perez has been dominant this season minus a few starts against the Astros, backing the Rangers will be the play.

College Football pick today: Coastal Carolina Chanticleers -2 over Georgia State Panthers (-110), 7:30 pm ET
The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers will travel to Atlanta on Thursday night to play the Georgia State Panthers in a Sun Belt East matchup. Grayson McCall is in his third full year as the Coastal Carolina starting quarterback and has performed admirably with 64 combined touchdowns, only 6 interceptions and a 70.1% completion rate. The junior signal caller has propelled his team to a 3-0 start, albeit none of the wins coming by more than 12 points. Army, Gardner-Webb, and Buffalo aren't necessarily the toughest competition to begin their season but Georgia State hasn't been sharp either as they enter this game 0-3. At this short line, backing the Chanticleers who have the better quarterback and have shown more consistency early in the season will be the play.
