The 12-team College Football Playoff field may be crowded, but the championship picture looks much smaller. Notre Dame, Georgia, Miami, Ohio State, and Alabama are the five teams that look capable of winning it all, while the rest are fighting for a chance to prove they belong in that class.

Atlanta enters the WNBA postseason healthy, deep, and playing its best basketball at exactly the right time. With DeWanna Bonner, Jordin Canada, Angel Reese, Allisha Gray, and Rhyne Howard all clicking, the Dream look like the most complete team left. At +195, there is still value on Atlanta to finish the job. Let’s make sure Allisha Gray is healthy first though. She matters a lot.

USC’s loss to Oregon was disappointing, but the reaction has already gone too far. The Trojans competed at a Top 10 level for three quarters, and the real test comes next against Washington. If Lincoln Riley still has control of this team, USC has every opportunity to prove the current narrative wrong.

A strong overall weekend survived a brutal early NFL window, with Florida delivering a featured Bet Thrive winner and the WNBA model producing another perfect Sunday. Now attention turns to a loaded week featuring MLB Wild Card action, WNBA playoffs, and major college and NFL matchups.

NFL Week 4 brings another board full of tricky numbers, situational spots, and potential traps. We run through every matchup with quick thoughts on where the value may be, which sides are worth considering, and which games are better left alone.

Week 2 brought chaos to Circa Survivor, while Circa Millions once again showed why true handicapping skill matters more than lottery-style survival. We also remember Chris Spatola following his tragic passing and look ahead to a wide-open WNBA postseason as the playoff picture comes into focus.

The Vikings were competitive last season despite poor quarterback play. With Kyler Murray healthy and a strong coaching staff in place, Minnesota to make the playoffs at +140 offers real value.

Arike Ogunbowale has sacrificed shots, statistics and individual attention to help build a winner in Dallas. Her willingness to adapt to Jose Fernandez’s system and share control with Paige Bueckers deserves plenty of credit. It will help make the Wings contenders for years to come.

Angel Reese continues to prove the doubters wrong. After another dominant 26-rebound performance, the three-time All-Star is establishing herself as one of the WNBA’s elite rebounders while building an impressive career and brand away from the court. I underestimated Reese. It’s time to give her the respect she’s earned.

USC enters 2026 with real pressure on Lincoln Riley and major upside behind Jayden Maiava. With a Heisman-caliber quarterback, a schedule loaded with opportunity, and a 30/1 title price, the Trojans may be overlooked as a team ready to jump into the elite tier.
