Here at Pickswise we have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are available from PointsBet Sportsbook. We will also discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.
Penn State Nittany Lions to lead at halftime and win – Boosted from +115 to +130 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need the Penn State Nittany Lions to lead at halftime against the Auburn Tigers and they will also need to win the game. Penn State come into this game as a slight favorite after beating Purdue to open the season and crushing Ohio last week. They are the #22 ranked team in the country and have also held leads at halftime in both of their games. Auburn is also 2-0, beating Mercer in Week 1 and San Jose State in Week 2. However, the game against San Jose State was a game where they struggled and even found themselves behind at halftime. Our experts like the Nittany Lions this afternoon because they have been much more consistent. For that reason, look for Penn State to jump on Auburn early to take a lead into halftime and use that momentum to win this game on the road.

BYU Cougars to lead at halftime and win – Boosted from +210 to +240 with PointsBet Sportsbook
This prop will need the BYU Cougars to lead at halftime against the Oregon Ducks and to win the game on Saturday afternoon. BYU is coming off an upset win over Baylor last week, which need 2OT. They are now #12 in the country, but have a tough test at Oregon. The Ducks hit the reset button after their 49-3 loss to Georgia in the season opener, beating Eastern Washington by a score of 70-14 last week. It is hard to know which Oregon team will show up, especially with Bo Nix under center. However, our experts love the Ducks to use the momentum from last week to pick up another win, while the Cougars may be in over their head in a hostile environment. For that reason, avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.

Shohei Ohtani to get a hit, throw 5+ strikeouts and the Los Angeles Angels to win – Boosted from +160 to +180 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need Shohei Ohtani to record a hit, record at least 5+ strikeouts and the Los Angeles Angels will need to beat the Seattle Mariners on Saturday night. Ohtani has an ERA of 2.55 this season and has 188 strikeouts, the 8th-most in the league. He has recorded at least 5 or more strikeouts in his last 3 starts and in 5 of his last 6 starts.
At the plate, Ohtani is batting .265 on the season. He has recorded a hit in each of his last 2 games and in 4 of his last 5 games. Our experts like the Mariners tonight, but backing this prop still looks to be worth a small lean because the Angels tend to be at their best when Ohtani is on the mound.
