Nick Parsons is a WHITE HOT 6-2 (75%) with his College Football picks over the last two weeks, but that's literally just the tip of the iceberg, as looking back finds Parsons as our No. 2-ranked overall College Football capper since the start of the 2023 season, going 212-169 with ALL of his releases (note that Parsons is also our No. 1 NFL Capper over that same span, and our No. 1 overall COMBINED "Football" capper since 2023 as well!) Short, mid or long-term, Nick is DOMINATING the "Gridiron," so you CAN NOT AFFORD TO MISS his first BOWL PLAY of the season between BOISE STATE and WASHINGTON (LA BOWL WINNER) - are you in on this?!

| NHL | (9) Anaheim Ducks at (10) Pittsburgh Penguins | 7:07pm EST - Dec 9/2025 |
The PLAY: Pittsburgh Penguins -115
This is a FREE PLAY on the Pittsburgh Penguins.
I love the way this one sets up for Pittsburgh.
Anaheim is No. 1 in the Pacific, 18-10-1 overall, including 7-6-1 on the road, while Pittsburgh is No. 4 in the Metropolitan with a 14-7-6 record, including going 6-4-2 at home.
The Ducks rebounded from a 7-0 home loss to Utah to win their next two in Anaheim over Washington and Chicago, but now I think they'll stumble here in this difficult road venue, facing the hungry and revenge-minded Penguins.
Pittsburgh went 2-1 on its most recent road trip, falling 3-2 in a shootout at Dallas in the finale.
But, now back at home, I like Pittsburgh to avenge the 4-3 loss in Anaheim back in early October. Looking back to last year, the Pens are 7-3 in their last ten in trying to avenge a road loss as an underdog against an opponent.
Overall, Pittsburgh averages 3.2 goals per game, which is ranked ninth, while allowing 2.7, which is ranked eighth. Anaheim averages 3.6 goals per game, ranked second, while conceding 3.3, ranked 22nd.
The difference for sure comes on the defensive end, and it's a weakness I expect the home side to take advantage of in this revenge scenario.
With upcoming games at the Islanders, Devils, Rangers, and Blue Jackets, it's also almost impossible not to see Anaheim getting caught "looking ahead" here to its difficult upcoming road trip.
This is the start of five straight at home for the Penguins, though, and I expect them to get things started off on the proverbial "right foot" with a big victory on Tuesday night.
Consider the PENGUINS.
Good luck, NP

| NHL | (71) Tampa Bay Lightning at (72) Toronto Maple Leafs | 7:37pm EST - Dec 8/2025 |
The PLAY: Total Over 6.0 (-115)
This is a FREE PLAY on the OVER Lightning/Leafs.
As being primarily a situational capper, I love the way this one sets up to be more of a wide-open shootout, rather than a lower-scoring goaltenders battle, and that's why I like the OVER.
This is the first game of the year between these clubs and I'm expecting some offensive fireworks.
Tampa Bay is 16-10-2 overall, including 8-3-2 on the road, while Toronto is 13-11-4 overall, including 8-4-4 at home.
The Lightning have a tough game at Montreal tomorrow night, so they'll have to be careful not to get caught looking ahead.
The Bolts are off three straight losses as well, most recently a 2-0 setback at home to the Islanders, so they'll clearly be motivated here to get this difficult road trip started off with a lot more energy. One thing that's interesting, though, is that dating back to last year the Lightning have in fact seen the total go OVER the number in five of their last six following a shutout home loss as a favorite.
Overall, the Lightning average 3.3 goals per game, which ranks eight, while allowing 2.6, which ranks sixth, while Toronto averages 3.5 goals per game, ranked third, while allowing 3.4, ranked 24th.
Whoever gets the start in net here, as they're still undecided completely as of writing this, is going to be in for a serious workout in my estimation.
The bottom line here is that I expect a faster pace to lead to more shots and for that to lead to more goals.
So the play is on the OVER.
Good luck, NP
