Oklahoma State Cowboys at Iowa State Cyclones

Oklahoma State Cowboys ML

-375

Oklahoma State averages 529.1 yards and 40.0 points, versus Iowa State’s 339.9 and 25.9. The Cowboys have scored 30-plus in six straight games; Iowa State has lost four of its expected top six receivers. Back the win without needing a ten-point road margin.

Why this pick

The -375 price offers a small return. Iowa State has allowed only four 300-yard passers in its last 30 games and plans to start Jaylen Raynor. Oklahoma State allows 364.0 yards per game; a home upset remains the main risk.

Ohio State Buckeyes at USC Trojans

Under 51.5

-112

Ohio State allows 13.4 points and 264.3 yards per game, including just 5.2 yards per pass attempt. USC scored seven last week, while Ohio State replaces injured Julian Sayin after a bye. Those constraints support Under 51.5.

Why this pick

USC’s Maiava has completed nearly 70% at home with 13 touchdowns. Ohio State averages 39.3 points and has explosive receivers. Either replacement quarterback could outperform expectations; turnovers giving short fields also threaten the under. Keep 51.5 at -112 or better.

Atlanta Hawks at New Orleans Pelicans

Atlanta Hawks ML

-185

Atlanta averages 32.5 assists and 13.8 turnovers, versus New Orleans’ 25.2 and 17.4. New Orleans allows 121.6 points per game to Atlanta’s 114.5. The official 4 PM report lists Poole and Missi out for New Orleans and Landale available for Atlanta.

Why this pick

New Orleans shoots 49% and scores 119.4 per game, so its offense can still win this at home. Both teams just ended losing runs. Early-season numbers are limited evidence; prefer Atlanta’s -185 moneyline to requiring a five-point win.

  2. 2Under 51.5Ohio State Buckeyes at USC Trojans

Oklahoma State ML pairs a 529.1-yard offense against a depleted Iowa State receiving group with Ohio State–USC Under 51.5, supported by Ohio State’s 13.4 points allowed and Sayin’s injury. These are separate games.

Why this pick

Calculated from individual DraftKings prices: Oklahoma State -375 and Under 51.5 -112. Both must win. Iowa State’s home upset potential and Maiava’s strong home passing are the main risks; the parlay magnifies them.

  3. 3Atlanta Hawks MLAtlanta Hawks at New Orleans Pelicans
  4. 4Miami Hurricanes MLMiami Hurricanes at North Carolina Tar Heels

Oklahoma State ML backs its 529.1-yard offense. Ohio State–USC Under 51.5 leans on Ohio State’s 13.4 points allowed and quarterback change. Atlanta ML adds its assist/turnover advantage. Miami ML backs 49.0 points and 551.9 yards per game against UNC’s 24.4 points and 335.9 yards.

Why this pick

Calculated from four separate DraftKings markets: -375, -112, -185 and -600. Every leg must win. Miami adds only 16.7% payout, but its offense and 60.0 rushing yards allowed support the win over covering -14. Friday’s ACC report lists Miami depth absences, with Mensah/Toney unlisted; UNC has defensive and offensive-line absences/questions. UNC’s pass rush and Miami’s road trip remain risks. Atlanta’s road defense and an unexpectedly explosive USC game are bigger concerns. The two-leg is the stronger concentrated choice.
