On the latest episode of Bet the Edge, Sara Perlman and Vaughn Dalzell dive into college football Week 2 and react to the spread movement in the Tennessee (3.5) vs. Pittsburgh matchup after it opened at -1.5. Vaughn explains why he’s eyeing Ohio State’s team Total over against Oregon, who could be without defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux.
NBC Sports EDGE’s Kenny Ducey joins the show to break down the action in the US Open and MLB. He thinks Felix Auger-Aliassime is in a perfect position to take down Carlos Alcaraz-Garfia in the quarterfinals. He’s backing the Canadian (-1.5 sets) to win against the young Spaniard. Kenny also explains why the Yankees (-1.5) should dominate the Blue Jays with Gerrit Cole on the mound.
NASCAR analyst Dan Beaver highlights the top names heading into this weekend’s Cup Series race at Richmond Raceway. Dan thinks Martin Treux Jr. (+440) should not be one of the co-favorites and explains his erratic driving makes him a tough bet at that number. On the other hand, Dan agrees with the market making Danny Hemlin (+440) the other co-favorite in this race and details his success at Richmond Raceway.
Sara and Vaughn wrap up today’s episode with their Edge of the Day plays. Vaughn sees value Dak Prescott’s Over 39.5 pass attempts against the Buccaneers and Sara expects Gerrit Cole to record a win (-105) against the Blue Jays.
