World Series Game 1 betting preview

The 2025 World Series will pit the Toronto Blue Jays against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Toronto won the AL East with 94 wins and is playing in the World Series for the first time since winning back-to-back championships in 1992 and 1993. Meanwhile, Los Angeles is the defending World Series champion and won the NL West with 93 wins.

The Blue Jays will host Game 1 and Game 2, but they'll be at a slight disadvantage after playing a seven-game series in the ALCS while the Dodgers are fresh after sweeping the Brewers. Blake Snell will start Game 1 for Los Angeles, and the two-time Cy Young winner is a big reason why the Dodgers are -157 favorites in the Blue Jays vs. Dodgers odds. Toronto is a +129 underdog, and the over/under for total runs scored is 7.5. Get $300 in bonus bets instantly if your first bet of $5 or more wins and three months free of NBA League Pass.

Friday college football betting preview

There are three Friday FBS games on the Week 9 college football schedule and the action begins with Charlotte vs. North Texas at 7 p.m. ET. The Mean Green are favored by 25.5 points on the road while the over/under is 60.5 points for that matchup. Then in the nightcap on CBS Sports Network, Nevada will host Boise State for a 10 p.m. ET kickoff and the Broncos are favored by 21.5 on the road with the over/under at 51.5.

However, the biggest matchup of the night will be an ACC battle between the Virginia Tech Hokies and the California Golden Bears. Virginia Tech is 2-5 on the season but has looked more competitive since firing head coach Brent Fry after losing its first three games. Meanwhile, California has a 5-2 record but is a 4.5-point underdog in the latest Week 9 college football odds from DraftKings while the over/under is listed at 50.5. Get $300 in bonus bets instantly if your first bet of $5 or more wins and three months free of NBA League Pass.
