We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which today are from DraftKings Sportsbook, FanDuel Sportsbook, and PointsBet Sportsbook. We’ll discuss whether or not they are worth playing.

Cincinnati to be leading at half-time & win the game – Boosted from -175 to -160 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs the Cincinnati Bearcats to be leading at half-time and to win their game against Houston. They are playing a feisty team who should not be taken lightly. However, our experts like the Bearcats to win by double digits, so backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

Oklahoma State to win game by 10+ points – Boosted from +145 to +160 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Oklahoma State to win by at least 10 points in the Big 12 Championship against Baylor. The win last week against Oklahoma was huge for the Cowboys and with another win, they would be almost guaranteed a spot in the College Football Playoff. The Cowboys showed a ton of fight in Bedlam last week and have already beaten Baylor once. Our experts love the Cowboys to win and cover, so pushing this to be a double-digit win looks to be worth a play.

Under 39.5 points scored in Michigan vs Iowa – Boosted from +160 to +180 with DraftKings Sportsbook

The Big Ten Championship game sees Michigan and Iowa facing off tonight. This prop needs there to be 39 or fewer points scored. However, given what Michigan’s running back Hassan Haskins did to Ohio State last week, our experts believe there will be more points than most might expect. For that reason, backing this prop is probably worth avoiding.

Alabama under 20 points and Georgia to win – Boosted from +120 to +140 with PointsBet Sportsbook

Normally, this prop would probably be crazy to back, but this Georgia defense is historically good. Yes, the Crimson Tide have Bryce Young, but he struggled against Auburn until the last drive of the game. Facing a Georgia defense that has allowed 6.9 points per game will be a much tougher task and the Bama offense will likely have plenty of struggles. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a small play.

Both Alabama and Pittsburgh to win – Boosted from +400 to +500 with FanDuel Sportsbook

This parlay needs both Alabama and Pittsburgh to win their Championship games. We like Pittsburgh to beat Wake Forest behind the arm of Kenny Pickett, but expect Georgia to beat Alabama in the SEC Championship. For that reason, this parlay should be avoided.

Boston Bruins, Washington Capitals & Toronto Maple Leafs all to win – Boosted from +370 to +480 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we need 3 NHL teams to win their games tonight: the Boston Bruins against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Washington Capitals against the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Toronto Maple Leafs against the Minnesota Wild. We like both Washington and Toronto to win, but would fade Boston. For that reason, this parlay is worth staying away from.
