5* NCAA Tourn Rd of 32 GAME OF THE YEAR on Auburn -

I love the value here with Auburn at basically a pick'em against Clemson in Sunday's Round of 32 action out of the Midwest Region. Auburn won their opener 62-58 over Charleston. That was a lot closer than most expected, as they were a 9.5-point favorite, but that's a much better Charleston team than most people realize. It didn't help that Auburn shot about as poor as they could, hitting just 35.6% from the field. 

Clemson had a little easier time in their first game, as they beat New Mexico State 79-68 behind a red-hot 55.9% shooting. I just think the contrasting victories have created some big time value here with Auburn. I look for Clemson to have a much tougher time offensively against this Auburn defense, while I expect Auburn to be much more efficient from the offensive side of the ball. 

Clemson hasn't exactly excelled in this spot. They are just 8-19 ATS in their last 27 when playing on the road in their 2nd game in a week. Take Auburn!

5* NCAA Tournament NO LIMIT Top Play on Cincy OVER

I love the value here with the OVER in Sunday's Round of 32 action that has Nevada taking on Cincinnati. It's no secret that the Bearcats are a great defensive team and I think that is definitely playing into this low number. 

The key here is the matchup and unfamiliarity with this explosive Nevada offense, which features 3 big time offensive players in Jordan Caroline and the Martin twins. This is a team that scores 83.2 ppg and doesn't play at a really fast tempo, which speaks to how efficient they are. The other big key is they don't turn the ball over and shoot close to 40% from behind the 3-point line. 

While I could see the Bearcats struggling to contain this Nevada offense, they should be able to put up a big number of their own against this Wolf Pack defense. Nevada hasn't allowed fewer than 74 points in each of their last 6 games. 

OVER is 5-1 in the Wolf Pack's last 6 non-confernece games, and 8-2 in their last 10 games played on a neutral site. OVER is also 33-15 in Nevada's last 48 vs great defensive teams that are giving up 64 or fewer points/game at least 15 games into the season. Take the OVER! 

3* NIT Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Oregon/Marquette UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Sunday's NIT action that has Marquette hosting Oregon. The Ducks come in off a 99-86 win over Rider in the opening round of the NIT. That game flew over the total of 159 and I think it has the number here inflated. The Golden Eagles are a team that averages 80.8 ppg, but aren't in great form right now, as they have scored 72 or fewer in each of their last 3 games. 

While Oregon gave up 86 to Rider, the Ducks had held each of their previous 4 opponents to 74 or less and I expect a big effort here defensively on the road. Keep in mind that both teams can score well into the 70s and we can still cash a winning ticket with this high number.

UNDER is 9-2 in the Ducks last 11 off a home win by 10 or more points, 15-5 in their last 20 road games off a home game and 7-1 in their last 8 after allowing 80 or more points. UNDER is also 16-5 in Marquette's last 21 home games with a total in the 150's. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAA Tournament Vegas INSIDER on Loyola +

I like the value here with the Ramblers as a decently priced dog against the Volunteers, as I think there's a decent chance they win this game outright. A lot of people simply don't realize just how good this Loyola-Chicago team is. Not only because of the small conference they play in, but they haven't really been in this spot before. 

One of the reasons that Tennessee had such a great season is the defense they played, but the Ramblers are every bit as good on that side of the ball. Loyola-Chicago only gave up 62.7 ppg on the season and were right on point, limiting the Hurricanes to 62 points in the first round. They forced Miami into 16 turnovers and did an excellent job keeping them off the line, as the Hurricanes only attempted 13 free throws. 

The other big key here is the Ramblers can stroke it from long-distance. They shot 40% as a team from behind the 3-point line and have 5 different players who shoot 38% or better. I simply trust their offense more in this one and I feel this line is inflated by a good 3-4 points because of how good the Vols looked in their opener with Wright State. Take Loyola-Chicago! 

3* NCAA Tournament Vegas LINE MISTAKE on Buffalo +

I like the value here with the Bulls catching a decent number against the Wildcats. Buffalo pulled off a big upset in the first round and did so in impressive fashion. The Bulls defeated Arizona 89-68 as a 9-point dog. A lot of people credited the win more on how bad the Wildcats played and while they didn't play their best game, this Buffalo team is no joke. 

The Bulls have 3 dynamic scorers in Jeremy Harris (15.6 ppg), C.J. Massinburg (17.3 ppg) and Wes Clark (14.1 ppg). These 3 combined for 67 points and were 11 for 22 from long-distance. That 3-point shooting is a huge factor here, as Kentucky is one of the worst 3-point shooting teams in the country and failed to make a single 3 in their win over Davidson in the first round. While the Wildcats will be able to score inside on the Bulls, trading 2 for 3 will allow Buffalo to keep this close and maybe even win outright. Take Buffalo! 

4* NIT Over/Under Total DESTROYER on Penn State OVER

I like the value here with the OVER in Saturday's NIT action that has Notre Dame facing off against Penn State. While Notre Dame put up 84 in their first NIT game against Hampton, the Nittany Lions played a very low-scoring game against Temple, which the won 63-57. I think that combined with the fact that the Irish only allowed 63 to Hampton has this number a lot lower than it should be. 

Penn State is a much better offensive team than they showed in their game against the Owls and should have a much easier time scoring here against the Irish. Keep in mind that Notre Dame allowed Duke to shoot 55.4% from the field in their final game of the ACC Tournament. The other key here is I don't see the Nittany Lions defense being able to slow down the Irish offense, which is averaging 82 ppg at home. 

Note the OVER is 14-4 over the last 2 seasons when Penn State is listed as a road dog and 8-1 in Notre Dame's last 9 home games as a favorite of 6 or less. Take the OVER! 

4* NCAA Tournament ATS NO-BRAINER on Missouri +

I like the value here with the Tigers at basically a pick'em against the Seminoles in Friday's first round action out of the West Region. Missouri is one of the bigger wild card teams in the field, as Michael Porter Jr basically didn't play the entire season until the Tigers SEC Tournament game. He's a special talent and a for sure lottery pick in next year's NBA draft. He's the kind of player that can put a team on his back. 

To no surprise Porter Jr was a bit rusty in his first game back, but he certainly wasn't lacking any confidence, as he hoisted up 17 shots off the bench in just 23 minutes of playing time. I think that was huge for the Tigers to get a warm-up game with Porter Jr. in the mix. They now have had a few days to put together a game plan and I think they are going to have their way with Florida State. 

The Seminoles have some nice pieces and were a solid team, but they aren't playing well down the stretch. FSU went just 4-6 over their final 10 games. I also don't love the matchup for the Seminoles. Florida State relies a lot on penetration to get their offense going and this Missouri team can lock you down defensively. The Tigers also are a great 3-point shooting team, which is huge given all the size and athleticism the Seminoles have inside. Take Missouri! 

5* NCAA Tournament No Limit TOP PLAY on UMBC +

I love the value here with the Maryland-Baltimore Country catching a huge number against No. 1 overall seed Virginia. Most people probably didn't even know UMBC was a school and that unfamiliarity combined with the Cavaliers being ranked No. 1 overall will have the public backing Virginia. I think the books were well aware of this action and have inflated this line to where there's tremendous value with the underdog. 

You hear it all the time, great guard play is critical in the NCAA Tournament. Well the Retrievers are led by their backcourt of Jairus Lyles and K.J. Maura. Both of which are very quick off the dribble and have great instincts on defense. They create a lot of easy looks from deep with their penetration and generate a lot of steals on the defense, allowing UMBC to get out in transition. 

I know Virginia doesn't have a ton of holes, but I think the pressure of the Retrievers and the Cavaliers potentially not giving this team their full amount of respect with much bigger games looming, will allow UMBC to keep this game a lot closer than most expert. Take Maryland-Baltimore County! 

3* NBA Over/Under TOTAL ANNIHILATOR on Nets UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Friday's NBA action that has the 76ers hosting the Nets. These two division rivals have a history of playing lower scoring games than what the books expect. The UNDER is 11-3-2 in the last 16 meetings and 5-1-1 in the last 7 games played in Philadelphia. 

With how well the 76ers are playing overall an especially at home, there's a good chance this gets out of hand and blowouts typically aren't all that high-scoring. You really need both teams to put up a lot of points to go OVER a mark like this. The Nets just aren't clicking offensively right now, as they are shooting just 43.7% from the field in their last 5 and only average 99.7 ppg vs division opponents. 

UNDER is 11-2 in Philadelphia's last 13 home games when playing against a bad team like the Nets, who have won between 25% to 40% of their games. UNDER is also 22-9 in Brooklyn's last 31 after 3 straight games with a combined score of 215 or more and 17-7 in their last 24 when revenging a home loss of 10 or more points. 

4* NCAA Tournament VEGAS INSIDER on Creighton -

I like the value here with the Bluejays at basically a pick'em in Fridays' first round action out of the South Region. Bruce Weber did another masterful job at Kansas State this year, as many experts had them pegged near the basement of the Big 12 standings. Martin forces effort from his players on a nightly basis and that played a big part in the Wildcats regular-season success. 

The thing is, effort can only get you so far and we saw this team really struggle against the top tier teams in the Big 12. In fact, they were 0-7 against the likes of Kansas, West Virginia and Texas Tech. I think we are going to see a similar struggle for them against a very good Creighton team that is extremely efficient offensively and plays at a frantic pace. The Bluejays put up 84.3 ppg. K-State simply doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace, as they really only have to legit scoring options in Dean Wade and Barry Brown. Take Creighton! 

3* BEST BET on Murray State +

I like the value here with the Racers catching double-digits against the Mountaineers in Friday's first round action out of the East Region. It's no secret that West Virginia is a tough team to prepare for in the NCAA Tournament, but I think Murray State has the pieces in place to handle the Mountaineers pressure. 

The Racers have two good ball handlers in their backcourt in Jonathan Stark and Demetrius Morant. The two combined to average 34.4 ppg and 10.3 apg. While they are great at sharing the ball on the offensive side of the ball, they were also one of the best teams in the country in forcing teams to beat them one-on-one. If they can keep from turning it over and not allowing the Mountaineers to get out in transition, this team can make it extremely hard for West Virginia to score. If the outside shot is falling for Murray State, they not only will keep this within the number, but they will have a legit shot at pulling off the upset. Take Murray State! 

3* NCAA Tournament TOTAL ANNIHILATOR  on Butler UNDER

I like the value with the UNDER in Friday's East Region action that has No. 7 Arkansas taking on No. 10 Butler. Those that just look at the numbers from the regular-season will think this is gong to be a high-scoring game. Both teams average right around 80 ppg and both are allowing on average in the high 70's. 

The thing is, the defensive intensity is taken to a different level in the NCAA Tournament and teams also simply don't shoot as well because of all the hype and pressure that comes with these games. The other thing is both offenses weren't exactly clicking down the stretch. 

While Arkansas put up 80 in a win over Florida in the SEC Tournament, that was the only time in their last 4 games they reached 70 points. Same thing with Butler, who scored 70 or fewer in 3 of their final 4 games. I think we get enough defense here to keep this well below the mark. Take the UNDER! 

3* LATE INFO INSIDER 

3* NCAA Tournament TOTAL MASSACRE on Marshall UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Friday's first round action out of the East Region that has Marshall taking on Wichita State. There's no denying that these are two explosive offensive teams. The betting public is going to simply look at the offensive numbers of these two teams and run to the window to take the OVER. The books are well aware of this and have certainly inflated this total to a price where I think the value is on the other side. 

One thing to keep in mind with teams like Wichita State and Marshall, who rely a lot on the 3-point shot, is that first game of the tournament can prove to be difficult for teams to shoot well. The defensive intensity is also at it's highest, so there's not going to be as many easy looks like their will be in the regular season. 

Note that Marshall has seen the UNDER cash in 23 of their last 31 games when they are up against a dominant rebounding team like Wichita State that's outrebounding opponents by 7+ boards/game. UNDER is also 15-5 in the Shockers last 20 games as a neutral court favorite and 16-5 in their last 21 tournament games overall. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAA Tournament Rd of 64 GAME OF THE YEAR on Marshall +

I love the value here with the Thundering Herd as a big dog against the Shockers in Friday's first round action out of the East Region. Marshall's head coach is Dan D'Antoni, who is the brother of Houston Rockets head coach Mike D'Antoni. As you might have guessed the two have similar philosophies on the offensive side and want to try and outscore teams by outshooting them from long-distance. 

It worked really well down the stretch for Marshall, who punched their ticket to the Big Dance by winning the C-USA Tournament. The Thundering Herd average 10-made 3-pointers a game and have 7 different players who shoot 33% or better from deep. That long-range attack helped them average 84.3 ppg. 

While Wichita State has the offensive fire-power to hang with Marshall and likely ultimately win this game, they are definitely on upset alert. That's because the Shockers aren't as good defensively as they have been in years past. One of their biggest weaknesses was defending the 3-point shot, making this a horrible matchup out of the gates. I think the Thundering Herd give them a scare and maybe win this one outright. Take Marshall! 

4* NCAA Tournament BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Buffalo +

I like the value here with the Bulls catching a big number against the Wildcats. There's been plenty of talk about how Arizona got the shaft on their seed and I think it has a lot of people jumping on the Wildcats laying single-digits here. As good as Arizona is, this Buffalo team is no joke. 

The Bulls cruised to the MAC Tournament title, winning all 3 of their tournament games by double-digits. They also showed extremely well in non-conference against the likes of Cincinnati, Texas A&M, Syracuse and St Bonaventure. The Bulls are also 12-2 ATS in their last 12 neutral court games with a perfect 7-0 ATS record in their last 7 neutral site games as an underdog. Take Buffalo! 

5* NCAA Tournament VEGAS INSIDER on Stephen F Austin +

I love the value here with the Lumberjacks catching double-digits against Texas Tech in Thursday's first round action out of the East Region. Stephen F. Austin has a lot of great qualities for success in the NCAA Tournament. The Lumberjacks have great depth and balance on the offensive side of the ball. They also bring the intensity on the defensive side of the ball and as a result led the nation in turnover percentage and steels. That pressure often leads to a lot of good looks on the offensive side of the ball, especially from long-range, where Stephen F. Austin is deadly from. 

As for Texas Tech, this is a team that really lost its mojo down the final leg of the season. The Red Raiders went just 2-5 over their final 7 games and the two wins could have easily been losses, as both came by 4-points or less. Rarely do you see a team that comes into the Big Dance struggling flip the switch and go on a deep run. If Texas Tech struggles with the pressure of the Lumberjacks, they not only aren't going to cover, but they may lose this game outright. Take Stephen F. Austin! 

3* NCAA Tournament ATS HEAVY HITTER on Miami

I like the value here with the Hurricanes on the money line, as the Ramblers continue to get a lot of love in your classic 12 vs a 5 upset. Miami has a lot more talent than people realize and are extremely athletic. Not to take anything away from Loyola-Chicago, but I just think they are going to have a really hard time against this Hurricanes team. 

I also don't think that Miami head coach Jim Larranaga gets near enough credit for how he can impact a tournament game. Larranaga is one of the best in the business at breaking down the Xs and Os and will have his team ready for anything the Ramblers throw at them. Take Miami! 

4* NCAAB Over/Under TOTAL DESTROYER on Gonzaga UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Thursday's first round action out of the West Region between No. 4 seed Gonzaga and No. 13 seed UNC-Greensboro. Gonzaga is an offensive juggernaut. The Bulldogs ranked 10th in the country in offensive efficiency while averaging 84.5 ppg. 

The problem here is I don't think Gonzaga is going to be able to put up a big number here against the Spartans. UNC-Greensboro is a team that is built around it's defense and will do whatever they can to slow down the pace of the game to take the other team out of their offensive rhythm. They know their only shot of pulling off the upset is to do exactly that and I just don't think there's going to be enough possessions to push this over the mark. Keep in mind Gonzaga is no slouch on the defensive side of the ball. They only gave up 67.1 ppg and Greensboro is not a very good offensive team. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAA Tournament ODDSMAKERS ERROR on Wright State +

I like the value here with the Raiders catching double-digits against the Volunteers in Thursday's opening round action out of the South Region. Wright State got to the big dance behind one of the better defenses in the country. The Raiders ranked were just outside the top 50 in the nation in defensive efficiency. They are especially good at defending inside the arc behind big men Loudon Love and Parker Ernsthausen. 

With Tennessee also being an elite defensive team, points are going to be at premium, which only adds more value here with the Raiders at this price. Keep in mind the Volunteers aren't exactly an offensive juggernaut. A big reason for that is they don't have an elite guard who can create his own shot when needed. This is also a primarily a jump shooting team and if the shots aren't falling for the Vols they not only won't cover, but could lose this game outright. Take Wright State! 

3* NCAAB Vegas LINE MISTAKE on Oklahoma +

I like the value here with the Sooners as a dog against the Rams in Thursday's 1st round action out of the Midwest Region. There's been all kinds of talk about how Oklahoma didn't deserve to make the field of 68 due to their poor finish. I think the Sooners will use that as motivation and come out with a huge chip on their shoulder here. 

Rhode Island wasn't exactly playing great down the stretch either. The Rams were just 4-4 over their final 8 games, which included an ugly 30-point loss at home to St. Josephs. I know teams in the Big 12 seemed to figure out freshman sensation Trae Young, but let's not forget how dominant he was in non-conference play to start the year. Oklahoma has the best player on the court and I think the long break between their early exit in the Big 12 Tournament and this game will do wonders for the Sooners. Take Oklahoma! 

4* NIT Over/Under TOTAL ANNIHILATOR on Washington OVER

I like the value here with the OVER in Wednesday's late night NIT action that has Boise State taking on Washington. The Broncos defense really slipped down the stretch, as they allowed 79 ppg over their final 3 games.

I know the Huskies aren't a great offensive team, but they should be able to put up a big number here at home against this defense. On the flip side of this, I don't think Washington will be able to slow down the Broncos attack, sending this one well over the mark set here by the books. 

OVER is 19-9 in the Huskies last 28 non-conference games and 9-1 in their last 10 when playing on 5 or 6 days of rest. Take the OVER! 

3* CBI No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Grand Canyon -

I like the value here with the Antelopes laying what I think is a short number against the Bears in the opening round of the CBI Tournament. Grand Canyon won 22 games this season and were on a 5-game winning streak before getting knocked out of the WAC Tournament by regular-season champ New Mexico State. 

A huge factor here is the Antelopes get to host this game, as they went an impressive 16-2 at home this season. I think the fact that Mercer had won 8 straight before losing to Wofford in the Southern Tournament has them getting too much respect here.

The Bears are just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 non-conference games, while the Antelopes have covered 5 of their last 6 games outside conference play. Take Grand Canyon!  

5* CBI Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on New Orleans -

I love the value here with the Privateers laying a short number against the Vaqueros in Wednesday's CBI action. Both of these teams finished the season poorly, but I still think New Orleans is the far superior team here. Looking back at non-conference play, we see both teams played at SMU. While both teams lost, the Privateers kept it respectable in a 13-point defeat, while the Vaqueros got annihilated by 31 points. 

The other big key here is UT-Rio Grande Valley was not good on the road and they come in a mere 1-9-1 ATS over the last 11 road games. They are also 1-6 ATS in their last 7 non-conference games The Privateers were a solid 9-3 on their home court and are a perfect 4-0 ATS in their last 4 off a SU loss by more than 20 points (lost by 22 to Sam Houston St in conference tournament). Take New Orleans! 

4* NBA Situational ATS NO-BRAINER on Bucks -

I like the value here with Milwaukee laying single digits on the road against the Magic on Wednesday. The Bucks have made easy work of sub-par teams in their last two games, winning 120-112 at home over the Knicks and 121-103 at Memphis. I look for more of the same here against Orlando, who has lost 5 straight and are just 2-12 in their last 14 overall. 

Last time out the Magic didn't even look like they had any interest playing, as they scored just 72 points in a 36-point loss at the Spurs. It was the 3rd time in their last 5 games that they scored fewer than 90 points. 

Orlando is a mere 2-10 ATS in their last 12 home games when they come in having lost at least 5 of their last 7, while the Bucks are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 road games when they have won 2 of their last 3 and are 9-1-1 ATS in their last 11 road games against a team with a losing home record. Take Milwaukee! 

3* NCAAB Late Night ATS ANNIHILATOR on Asheville +

I really like the value here with the Bulldogs catching a big number against USC in the opening round of the NIT. This is all about motivation and I just have a hard time seeing the Trojans being all that excited about even playing in this tournament. USC had their eyes set on the NCAA Tournament and had to feel like they did enough to make it. They won 23 games, finished 2nd in the Pac-12 regular-season standings and reached the Pac-12 Tournament title game. 

Asking this team to get up for this game is asking a lot, especially given the opponent. As for UNC-Asheville, they are going to relish in the opportunity to showcase their talents against a Power 5 opponent. The Bulldogs have two dynamic scorers to help them at least keep this within the number in Ahmad Thomas and Marcio Teague, who both average right around 16.5 ppg. 

The other big key here is the Trojans head into the NIT at less than 100%. Bennie Boatwright was lost for the season back in the middle of February and leading scorer Chimezie Metu is questionable for this game because of rest, which speaks volumes to how little this game means to this team. Take Asheville! 

4* NIT Vegas ATS NO-BRAINER on Western Kentucky -

I like the value here with the Hilltoppers laying a short number against the Eagles. The betting public is all over BC, as they come from the much stronger conference, but this Western Kentucky team is no joke. The Hilltoppers went 14-4 in a strong C-USA and just missed out on an automatic bid, losing to Marshall in the C-USA Tournament title game. 

Western Kentucky did more than prove they can hang with the big boys in non-conference play. They knocked off Purdue and SMU in back-to-back games and only lost by 8 to Villanova. The fact that the Hilltoppers are the better seed and get to host this game is also a huge factor in why I like them to win and cover. Western Kentucky was 13-3 at home this season, while the Eagles were a dreadful 5-12 away from their home court. 

Hilltoppers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their road games and are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 non-conference games. Take Western Kentucky! 

4* NBA Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Wizards -

I like the value here with the Wizards laying a short number at home against the Timberwolves. This is an ideal spot to jump on Washington after an ugly 27-point loss at Miami in their last game. It's also a good spot to go against Minnesota, who is coming off two huge home games against the Celtics and Warriors. The Timberwolves were able to rebound from a loss to Boston with a 109-103 upset win over Golden State in their last game, but that came against a short-handed Warriors team. 

Minnesota hasn't exactly been playing well away from home. The Timberwolves are just 1-9 in their last 10 away from home and the lone win was against the Kings. Minnesota has gone just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 away from home and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 off a SU win. Wizards are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 off a SU loss by more than 10 points and 9-1 ATS in their last 10 when they come in having lost 4 or 5 of their last 6 games. Take Washington! 

4* NIT No Doubt ATS HEAVY HITTER ON Wagner +

I like the value here with the Seahawks as a big double-digit dog against the Bears in Tuesday's first round action of the NIT. Baylor received a No. 1 seed, but I just don't think they are going to be all that motivated to play in the NIT. Keep in mind this was one of the last few teams left out of the Big Dance. 

A big reason they were left out is they went just 1-4 over their final 5 games. Not playing well and no real motivation are two keys to a team like Baylor getting knocked off by a lessor opponent in Wagner. 

While the Seahawks lost in the NEC finals to miss out on a trip to the NCAA Tournament, these small conference schools have a much easier time putting that disappointment behind them and focus on the opportunity to showcase their talents against some quality opponents. Look for the Seahawks to come out swinging and give the Bears all they can handle. Take Wagner! 

3* NBA Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Spurs OVER

I like the value with the OVER in Monday's NBA action that has the Rockets hosting the Spurs. Houston is coming off a couple of sub-par offensive showings in their last two games to close out a 4-game road trip, but still managed to score 105 in both of those games. They also played their last game without James Harden. With Harden expected back in the lineup tonight, I think we see the Rockets return to form and put up a big number here on a Spurs team that is struggling.

San Antonio has lost 4 of 5 and are just 2-8 in their last 10 games. They are giving up 110 ppg over their last 5. They did score just 94 in their last game against OKC, but had scored 100 or more in each of their previous 7 games. I think they get to at least the century mark here, which should push this well over the mark. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB Early Bird ATS ANNIHILATOR on Central Michigan OVER

I like the value here with the OVER in Monday's early CIT action that has Fort Wayne hosting Central Michigan. The Mastodons averaged 82.1 ppg and were even better at home, where they put up 89.5 ppg. I don't think the Chippewas will be able to slow down this attack. Central Michigan wasn't a great defensive team and allowed 77.7 ppg away from home. 

The key here is the Chippewas have the offensive fire-power to keep pace with the Mastodons and push this well over the mark set by the books. Central Michigan closed out the season averaging 78.0 ppg over their last 5 contests. Fort Wayne allowed 83.8 ppg over their final 5 games. 

The OVER is a perfect 8-0 in the Mastodons last 8 games and 7-1 in the Chippewas last 8 games. OVER is 9-2 in Central Michigan's last 11 road games with a line and 8-1 as an underdog this season. OVER is also 14-4 in Fort Wayne's last 18 as a home favorite and 7-1 in their last 8 after scoring 75+ in 3 straight games. Take the OVER! 

3* NBA Undervalued UNDERDOG on Pacers +

I like the value here with Indiana as a pretty big road dog here against the Celtics. Boston comes in off an impressive 117-109 win at Minnesota and are now 6-1 SU and 6-1 ATS since returning from the All-Star break. I simply think it has the Celtics overvalued here and we can see how much this line has been inflated by noting that Boston was just a 4-point home favorite the last time these two teams played on Feb. 9th. 

The Celtics also suffered a big blow in their win over the Timberwolves. Jaylen Brown suffered a concussion and will be out for a while. While Boston has a pretty balanced lineup, Brown is a big piece to replace. He's second on the team in scoring at 14.1 ppg and had really been playing well before the injury. 

The Pacers for whatever reason continue to not get the respect they deserve. Indiana is just a 1/2 game back of Cleveland for the 3rd best record in the east and have been playing very well of late, going 8-3 in their last 11 games. I not only see them keeping this within the number, but could see them win this one outright. Take Indiana! 

4* NBA No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Pelicans +

I like the value here with the Pelicans as a home dog against the Jazz. New Orleans had their 10-game winning streak snapped in their last game. They really didn't have much of a chance, as Anthony Davis had to miss the game with an ankle injury. He's expected to return for this game and I expect the Pelicans to return to form and get a big home win. 

The last time these two teams played was early February in New Orleans, which Utah won 133-109. That was back before the Pelicans turned a corner and started playing some of their best basketball. This has proven to be a great revenge spot for New Orleans, as the Pelicans have gone 30-18 ATS in their last 48 when revenging a loss to a team that scored 110 or more on them in the previous meeting. Take New Orleans! 

4* NCAAB Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Houston +

I like the value here with the Cougars catching points in Sunday's AAC Tournament title showdown. Houston showed they are more than capable of hanging with the Bearcats during their two regular-season meetings. The Cougars did more than hold their own in a 10-point loss at Cincinnati earlier in conference play and later defeated the Bearcats 67-62 at home. 

Both teams took great care of the basketball in their semifinal matchups. Houston turned it over just 7 times, while the Bearcats committed just 3 turnovers. Houston has gone an impressive 30-16 ATS in their last 46 after a game with 8 or fewer turnovers, while Cincinnati is just 4-14 ATS in their last 18 in this same scenario. I think there's a great chance the Cougars don't just cover but win this game outright. Take Houston! 

3* Kentucky/Tennessee ATS ANNIHILATOR on Tennessee

I like the value here with the Volunteers in Sunday's SEC Tournament title game. Tennessee had the Wildcats number this season, sweeping the season series, and I look for them to add to it with another win here. 

The Volunteers have been one of the big surprises this season and Just don't think this team gets the respect they deserve. They certainly shouldn't be an underdog here, but Kentucky is playing well and are the bigger name, so the books are shading where the public money will be coming in. 

The Wildcats are a mere 2-11 ATS in their last 13 road games after 2 straight conference wins and are just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 off a blowout win by more than 20 points. Take Tennessee! 

3* NBA Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Magic UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's NBA action that has the Clippers hosting the Magic. While the Clippers have scored 116 or more in 4 straight games, I think we could see a much slower pace for LA tonight. The Clippers playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back after laying it all on the line at home last night against LeBron James and the Cavs. A game they won by 14. 

This is now a prime letdown spot for Los Angeles against a bottom feeder like the Magic. Orlando is a complete mess right now and the offense has really struggled of late. The Magic have failed to score 90 twice in their last 3 games. The key here is they have played some decent defense of late, as they are only allowing 100.4 ppg over their last 5. 

UNDER is 18-8 in the Magic's last 26 non-conference games and 10-1 in the Clippers last 11 home games off an upset win as a dog. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Arizona -

I love the value here with the Wildcats laying a short number against the Trojans in the Pac-12 Tournament title game on Saturday. You have to give USC props for how well they have played without one of their best players in Bennie Boatwright, but I don't see the run continuing here against one of the best teams in the country, especially now that the Trojans are playing their 3rd game in 3 days.  

Arizona has won 4 straight and are 7-1 in their last 8. Any concerns about this team being hurt by all the off the court drama that's going on can be thrown out the window. If anything, it has brought this team together and have them playing with a bit of a chip on their shoulder.

The Wildcats made easy work of the Trojans in the lone meeting this season, winning by 14 on their home floor. It could have been a lot worse, as Arizona shot 56% from the field and finished with a +18 edge on the boards. Those are two great signs that the Wildcats are the far superior team and will have no problem getting the win here. Take Arizona!

4* NCAAB No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Rhode Island -

I like the value here with the Rams laying single-digits against the Hawks in Saturday's A-10 semifinals. Rhode Island was hands down the best team in the conference and they did just as expected and snapped a 2-game skid to end the regular-season with a 76-67 victory over VCU yesterday. While St. Joe's defeated George Mason by 19 as a 6.5-point favorite, I don't see the Hawks being able to keep this one close. 

That's because the Rams are going to be 100% locked in for this game. The only meeting between these two teams came at Rhode Island in the final week of the regular season. St. Joe's won that game 78-48 as a 13.5-point dog. The Hawks took advantage of a Rams team that wasn't locked in with the A-10 regular-season title already in the bag. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Rhode Island flipped the script and ended up winning here by 20+. 

With yesterday's cover over VCU the Rams are now 7-1 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games. They are also a dominant 21-9 ATS in their last 30 games off a conference win and 8-1 ATS in their last 9 when playing only their 2nd game in a 8-day stretch. Take Rhode Island! 

3* NCAAB Early Bird ANNIHILATOR on Alabama UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's SEC semifinal action between Kentucky and Alabama. These are two of the better defensive teams in the league and with a trip to the title game on the line, I think this one stays well under the mark set by the books.

The Crimson Tide limited Texas A&M to just 70 points and on 39% shooting in their first game of the Tournament and followed that up by holding Auburn to a mere 63 points on 32.3% shooting. Kentucky's defense was even better in their only game so far in the tournament, as they held Georgia to a mere 49 points on 28% shooting. 

UNDER is 10-2 in Alabama's last 12 games after playing 2 straight games as an underdog and 15-5 in their last 20 after going UNDER the total in their previous game. UNDER is also 7-2 in Kentucky's last 9 games played on a neutral site. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB Over/Under VEGAS INSIDER on Cornell UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER is Saturday's Ivy League action between Cornell and Harvard.  These two teams combined for at least 149 in both regular-season meetings, but I expect a much more defensive game with what is at stake here in postseason play. 

Harvard won the most recent meeting at home by double-digits and that's worth noting, as the UNDER is 13-4 in Cornell's last 17 road games when revenging a road loss of 10 or more points. UNDER is also a strong 16-5 in Harvard's last 21 when they come in off 2 straight games where they scored 75 or more points. 

Adding to all of this is a great system in play. The UNDER is 25-3 when you neutral court teams against the total (HARVARD) - after 3 or more consecutive overs, an average team (+/- 3.5 PPG diff.) against a poor team (-3.5 to -8 PPG diff.) after 15+ games. Take the UNDER!

5* NCAAB Vegas Insider TOP PLAY on Houston -

I like the value here with the Cougars in Friday's American Athletic action, as I think Houston wins this by double-digits no problem. The Cougars have been one of the best kept secrets in the country. Houston finished 24-6 and were 14-4 in the AAC. They went 8-1 over their last 9 games and several of those were close. 

UCF comes in off back-to-back wins over Tulane and East Carolina, with the win over the Pirates coming in yesterday's AAC Tournament action. That's important to note, as Houston got a bye and will have a big rest advantage here with the Knights playing for the 2nd time in 2 days. The only meeting between these two teams this season came at UCF, which the Cougars won 69-65. 

The Knights are a mere 1-8 ATS in their last 9 road games after covering the spread in 3 of their last 4 games and 1-8 ATS in their last 9 road games after playing 2 straight games as a favorite. Take Houston!

5* NCAAB No Limit TOP PLAY on Davidson -

I like the value here with the Wildcats in Friday's A-10 action against the Billikens. Davidson saved it's best basketball for late in the year, as they closed out the regular season on a 8-2 run with the only two losses coming at Rhode Island (A-10 regular season champs) and at St. Bonaventure (finished 2nd in A-10) in triple-overtime. 

These two teams played just once in the regular-season. Davidson won that contest at home 54-51. Note that was back before they caught fire, so there's every reason to expect a larger margin of victory tonight, especially given the rest advantage for the Wildcats. Davidson didn't have to play yesterday, while St Louis had to take on George Washington. Look for that to play a big part in the Wildcats winning here by more than the number. Take Davidson! 

3* NBA No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Pacers -

The like the value here with the Pacers laying single-digits at home against the Hawks on Friday. Indiana should have no problem winning here going away. The Pacers are going to be extremely motivated off an embarrassing 20-point home loss to the Jazz last time out. Atlanta is the perfect team to get back on track against, as the Hawks are more focused about building for the future than winning games right now. 

Note the last two times that Atlanta traveled to play the Pacers it hasn't gone well. These two met at Indiana back on Feb. 23 and the Pacers won 116-93. The previous meeting at home for the Pacers saw them win by a final of 104-86. 

Pacers are 21-6 ATS in their last 7 off a double-digit loss at home and are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 vs teams from the Eastern Conference. Take Indiana!

5* NCAAB SEC GAME OF THE MONTH on Kentucky -

I love the value here and spot for the Wildcats, as they will take on Georgia in the quarterfinals of the SEC Tournament. Kentucky defeated the Bulldogs in the lone meeting this season and have won 10 straight in the series overall. 

This is a big spot for the Wildcats, who are going to want to bounce back with a strong showing here after an ugly double-digit loss at Florida to close out the regular season. Georgia just isn't a team I feel that can compete with Kentucky given the circumstances. While the Bulldogs will be playing their 3rd game in 3 days, the Wildcats will be playing their first game of the tournament after receiving a double-bye. This is a statement game for Kentucky and I expect them deliver with a convincing win. Take Kentucky! 

5* NCAAB A-10 GAME OF THE MONTH on St. Joe's -

I love the value here with the Hawks in Friday's A-10 action against George Mason. St. Joseph's closed out the regular-season on a tear, going 6-1 in their final 7 games, which includes that impressive 78-48 win at Rhode Island as a 13.5-point dog. I look for the Hawks to have zero problem making easy work of the Patriots. 

George Mason is at a big disadvantage here in terms of rest. While St. Joseph's got a bye for yesterday's action, the Patriots had to take on UMass. It wasn't an easy win, as George Mason escaped with a 75-70 victory. I just don't see them having enough left in the tank here and we know we are going to get the very best the Hawks have to offer. St Joseph's is playing with double-revenge from two extremely close losses to the Patriots, losing by 2 at George Mason and by 3 at home. 

Hawks haven't played since last Saturday and are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games when playing only their 2nd game in a week. They are also 11-2 ATS in their last 13 away from home when they come in having won at least 6 of their last 8 games. Take St. Joseph's!

4* NCAAB Early Bird ATS NO-BRAINER on Rhode Island -

I like the value here with Rhode Island in Friday's game against VCU in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic-10 Tournament. VCU is a well-known name for a small-school and aren't often this big of a dog, but they are simply outmatched here against a Rhode Island team that is one of the better teams in the country not everyone knows about. 

Rhode Island comes in at 23-6 overall and won the A-10 regular season title with a mark of 15-3 in conference play. They had a stretch in the season where they won 16 straight. They did close out the regular-season with 2 straight losses and I think that was more of just this team getting a little complacent. I expect to see a different focus an intensity when they take the floor here. 

Rhode Island went on the road and beat VCU 81-68 in early February, which is a good sign they can win by a similar margin on a neutral site. It also helps that Rhode Island will have a big edge here in terms of rest. While they had a bye on Thursday, VCU was playing in a dog fight against Dayton, which they prevailed 77-72. 

I mentioned earlier VCU isn't use to being a big dog. They are just 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games when getting points. They are also 3-7 ATS in their last 10 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games. Take Rhode Island! 

4* NCAAB Late Night ATS MASSACRE on USC -

I like the value here with the Trojans in Thursday's Pac-12 Tournament action against the Beavers. I just think USC is being undervalued here because of the injury to Bennie Boatwright. While that's a big loss in the grand scheme of things, I don't think it will keep the Trojans from making easy work of the Beavers. 

Oregon State comes in off an impressive win over Washington last night, but they needed overtime to do it. The Beavers aren't a dip team and 5 different players logged over 30 minutes in that game. Now Oregon State has to play on no rest against a USC team that got a first round bye.

USC won both meetings during the regular season, including a 7-point win at Oregon State. The Trojans are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games vs a team with a winning record and a perfect 8-0 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games. Take USC! 

5* NCAAB MWC GAME OF THE MONTH on Boise State

I like the value here with the Broncos in Thursday's MWC action against the Aggies. Boise State was by the far better team during the regular season. The Broncos went 23-7 with a 13-5 mark in the MWC, while Utah State was just 16-15 with a 8-10 mark in conference play. The Aggies defeated Colorado State 76-65 yesterday, but that was to be expected. 

Now Utah State is being forced to play on no rest, while the Broncos are playing on 4 days of rest. Boise State is going to want to play well in this tournament after going just 3-3 down the stretch. They will also be extremely motivated here playing with revenge from a loss in the last meeting with Utah State. 

The Aggies have won and covered their last two games, but are a mere 2-12 ATS in their last 14 after successfully covering the spread in 2 straight games. They are also a mere 5-15 ATS in their last 20 road games against a good team that's won between 60% and 80% of their games. Take Boise State! 

3* NBA Undervalued UNDERDOG on Nets +

I like the value here with the Nets catching a decent number here agains the Hornets. Just when it looked like Charlotte was making a move after winning 5 straight, they have lost their last 4. This team is a miserable 5-9 ATS in their last 14 games. This team continues to get too much respect. 

As bad as the Nets have been, I wouldn't be shocked to see them win this game outright. Brooklyn is starting to get healthy and I think they gained some confidence in their last game against the Warriors. While they lost by 14, they can build on the fact that they took a halftime lead against the defending champs after being down by as many as 21 in the 1st quarter. 

Charlotte has to be a tired team right now and are just 2-10 ATS in their last 12 games when playing their 8th game in 14 days. They have also really struggled against the Atlantic division, going just 7-22 ATS in their last 29 games. It's the exact opposite for the Nets, who are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 vs the Southeast. Take Brooklyn! 

5* NCAAB Vegas Prime Time TOP PLAY on Duke

I like the value here with the Blue Devils in Thursday's showdown with Notre Dame in the quarterfinals of the ACC Tournament. There's no question that the Irish are a different team with Colson in the lineup and likely deserve to be included in the NCAA Tournament regardless if they win this game or not. 

Either way, I don't think they will have enough gas left in the tank to keep this game competitive against what should be a very motivated Duke side. Notre Dame had to play in the opening round on Tuesday and scratched out a 67-64 win over Pitt. They then miraculously rallied from 21 down in the 2nd half in yesterday's win over Va Tech.

The Irish will be playing their 3rd game in 3 days against a Duke team that received a double-bye and hasn't played since Saturday. The Blue Devils will cruise to an easy win and cover tonight. Take Duke! 

4* NCAAB ATS HEAVY HITTER on UCLA -

I like the value here with the Bruins laying what I feel is a very short number against the Cardinal. While these two teams finished with identical 11-7 records in Pac-12 play, I believe UCLA is simply the better team and has the more impressive resume. 

The other big key here is the rest advantage that the Bruins have in this contest. Despite the same record, UCLA earned a first round by in the Pac-12 Tournament, while the Cardinal had to play yesterday in opening round action against Cal. Note that Cal is responsible for 2 of Stanford's 5 road wins. 

This is also a good spot to fade Stanford coming off a strong defensive showing against Cal, where they held the Golden Bears to just 58 points. The Cardinal are a mere 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games after allowing 60 points or less. Take UCLA! 

4* NCAAB No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Kansas -

I like the value here with the Jayhawks laying what I feel is a short number against the Cowboys. I know Oklahoma State swept the season series, but I think there's every reason to expect a different outcome this time around. The Cowboys caught the Jayhawks by surprise in Lawrence the first go around. That wasn't a great spot for KU off two big wins (at home vs Texas A&M and at in-state rival K-State). The second time around was the regular-season finale for both teams, which Oklahoma State rolled to a 18-point win. The big thing there is Kansas already had the conference title locked up, so there wasn't much of anything to play for. 

This time around I'm confident we will get the very best the Jayhawks have to offer. Not only because they are playing with double-revenge, but also because the last thing this team wants is to lose here and go into the NCAA Tournament with zero momentum. I think this one could get out of hand in a hurry, especially with the big rest edge the Jayhawks have with Oklahoma State playing on no rest and off a big win over in-state rival Oklahoma. Take Kansas! 

5* NCAAB Pac-12 GAME OF THE MONTH on Arizona -

I like the value here with the Wildcats in Thursday's Pac-12 Tournament action against Colorado. I just think all the outside noise that has surrounded this program of late with head coach Sean Miller and a couple of their star players, has brought Arizona closer together as a team and have them poised for a great postseason run. This is without a doubt one of the most talented teams in the country. 

Colorado comes in off an impressive upset win over Arizona State yesterday, but the Sun Devils have struggled down the stretch. It was only the 5th win away from home all season for the Buffaloes and chances are they won't be able to duplicate that strong performance this afternoon. I think the Wildcats win here comfortably. 

Colorado is a mere 1-7 ATS in their last 8 road games off a win and 4-12 ATS in their last 16 off a win by 10 or more points. Wildcats on the other hand are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 road games after playing their previous game as a home favorite and a perfect 7-0 ATS in their last 7 road games off a conference home win. Take Arizona! 

4* NCAAB Money Line DESTROYER on George Mason 

I like the value here with the Patriots on the money line Thursday against the Minutemen. George Mason closed out the regular season with an ugly 14-point loss at home to Richmond, but keep in mind they were dog in that fight. The Patriots are still a respectable 6-3 over their last 9 games, which includes a win over UMass. 

The Minutemen knocked off LaSalle 69-67 as a 6-point dog yesterday, which followed an 85-75 win over Duquesne at home in their regular-season finale. I think these back-to-back wins have UMass way overvalued here. Keep in mind the Minutemen were a mere 1-11 in their previous 12 games. 

The Patriots won both regular season meetings and history backs them winning the third meeting, as UMass is a mere 1-9 on the money line in their last 10 games when playing with double-revenge. Take George Mason! 

5* NCAAB ATS No-Brainer TOP PLAY on Clemson -

I like the value here with the Tigers laying a short number against the Eagles in Thursday quarterfinals action of the ACC Tournament. Not only is Clemson the better team, but the Tigers have a major edge here in rest. Boston College will be playing their 3rd game in 3 days, while Clemson has yet to play after receiving a double-bye. 

I still think this Tigers team is being undervalued because of the fact that they lost Donte Grantham for the season, but they have played extremely well without him. Clemson should also be plenty motivated here after losing their regular-season finale at Syracuse, as they will want some momentum going into the NCAA Tournament. It's been a nice run for the Eagles, but it stops here. Take Clemson! 

5* NCAAB Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Virginia -

I really like the value here with the Cavaliers covering what I think is a short number against the Cardinals. I know Louisville had Virginia on the ropes last Thursday (blew a 13-point lead 2nd half lead and 4-point edge with less than a second to play), but that was on their home floor. Keep in mind that the Cardinals came into that game not playing well and it's likely the Cavaliers didn't give them the respect they deserved. 

I don't see that being a problem this time around. Virginia will be extremely motivated here to play well, as they don't want to go into the NCAA Tournament off an early exit from the ACC Tournament. This is also a well-rested Virginia squad, who hasn't played since Saturday. Louisville on the other hand could be both emotionally and physically drained after a big win over FSU yesterday, as that was one they had to have for any shot at making the field of 68. 

The Cavaliers ended the regular-season with a win at home over Notre Dame, but did fail to cover the spread. Both are important to note, as they are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 road games off a conference win and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 off a game in which they failed to cover the spread. Take Virginia! 

5* NCAAB Vegas Insider TOP PLAY on Xavier -

I like the value here with the Musketeers covering this spread against the Red Storm on Thursday. Xavier simply isn't getting enough respect here. They went 15-3 in league play with two of those losses coming against Villanova. They swept the season series against St. John's and should have no problem taking them down again. 

Xavier has a history of playing well in games played on a neutral court, as they are 19-7 ATS in their last 26 games played at a neutral site. They are also 14-5 ATS in their last 19 tournament games. While St John's won and covered in the first round yesterday against Georgetown, they are still just 2-6 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games. 

Rest is also a key factor here, as Xavier had a first round bye and will be catching the Red Storm in the 2nd game of a back-to-back set. I just don't think St. John's is capable of playing well enough on no rest to keep this one competitive. Take Xavier! 

3* NBA Over/Under TOTAL ANNIHILATOR on Lakers UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Wednesday's NBA action that has the Lakers hosting the Magic. While these two teams have played in a lot of high-scoring games of late, both come in off a poor offensive showing. Orlando scored just 80 points and shot a mere 34.1% from the field in their last game at Utah, while LA scored just 103 and shot 39.5% from the field in their last game against the Blazers. 

UNDER is 7-1 in the Magic's last 8 games vs a team with a losing record and 11-2 in their last 13 vs the Western Conference. UNDER is also 15-3 in the last 18 meetings between these two teams when they face off in LA. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB ACC GAME OF THE MONTH on North Carolina -

I love the value here with the Tar Heels laying single-digits against the Orange on Wednesday. North Carolina is one of the best teams in the country and after losing their final two regular-season games are going to be extremely motivated here to play well in the ACC Tournament, so they have some kind of momentum going into the NCAA Tournament. 

As for Syracuse, they got a huge win yesterday in the opening round against Wake Forest. They still likely need to win here to get in, but I don't see it happening. The Orange simply don't have the offensive fire-power to keep this close and it's only going to be that much harder with tired legs  on rest. 

Syracuse is a mere 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games away from home after a win and are 0-10 ATS in their last 10 road games vs a team that averages 8 or more made 3-pointers a game. Take North Carolina!

5* NCAAB Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on NC State - 

I like the value here with the Wolfpack laying a short number against the Eagles. NC State really closed out the season strong. They went 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS over their last 6 games. The lone hiccup coming in a game at Georgia Tech, where they simply didn't show up to play. I don't see any concern here with NC State showing up. 

The Wolfpack offensively are absolutely rolling right now. They are average 83 ppg over their last 5 and haven't scored fewer than 70 points in a game since the middle of January when they put up just 51 at Virginia. 

Another key here is the rest advantage for the Wolfpack, who received a first round bye, while the Eagles had to suit up yesterday and take on the Yellow Jackets. NC State is also a great tournament team and have gone 30-12 ATS in their last 42 games in the ACC Tournament. 

Adding to all of this is a great system in favor of the Wolfpack. Neutral court favorites who are an explosive offensive team (76+ ppg) that have scored 75+ in 3 straight games are 83-41 (67%) ATS when facing a decent offensive team that averages 74-76 ppg. Take NC State! 

3* NBA Over/Under TOTAL ANNIHILATOR on Nuggets OVER

I like the value here with the OVER in Tuesday's NBA action that has the Nuggets visiting the Mavericks. Denver comes in scorching hot on the offensive side of the ball. They have scored 104  or more points in 14 straight games and have hit or eclipsed 110 points in 11 of those 14 games. They are averaging 118 ppg over their last 5. 

Dallas isn't a great offensive team, but are in good form, averaging 107 ppg over their last 4. I think they hit that mark and then some. As good as the Nuggets have been offensively, they have been just as bad defensively. Denver has given up 100+ in 14 straight and have allowed 12 of their last 13 opponents to shoot 50% or better from the field. 

OVER is 21-8 in the Mavs last 29 home games after giving up 105 or more points in 3 straight games and 5-0 in their last 5 at home. OVER is also 14-4 in the Nuggets last 18 road games vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their home games and 20-9 in their last 29 off 2 or more consecutive wins. Take the OVER! 

4* NCAAB Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Stony Brook +

The Catamounts are the overwhelming favorites to take home the America East Tournament title and earn the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. I think it has Vermont way overvalued here against the Seawolves. Stony Brook comes in playing well, as they are 5-2 in their last 7 games. They got the America East Tournament started off in style, winning on the road over Albany 69-60 as a 9.5-point dog. 

It's also worth pointing out just how competitive the Seawolves were in both regular-season meetings between these two teams. Stony Brook lost by just 9-points in each meeting. While the game will be played at Vermont, the Catamounts are a mere 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 home games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games vs a team with a losing road record. Take Stony Brook!

4* NBA Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Suns/Heat OVER

I'm recommending a play on the OVER in Monday's NBA action that has the Suns visiting the Heat. In Phoenix's 6 games since the All-Star break they rank 1st in the league in pace of play and I think that up-tempo brand of basketball will help push this well over the mark. The Suns have scored 112.5 ppg in those 6 games since the break. As good as the offense has been, the defense has been equally bad, which explains why they are just 1-5 SU despite the offensive fire-works. Phoenix is giving up 116.3 ppg during this stretch. 

Miami is known more as a defensive team, but are just two games removed from allowing 131 to the Lakers on their home floor. They are also trending up offensively right now, as they have scored 100+ in 7 straight games and should have zero problem eclipsing that mark against this Suns defense, which might be lacking energy off that crushing last second loss to the Hawks yesterday. 

OVER is 8-3 in the Heat's last 11 overall and 4-0 in their last 4 games vs a team from the Western Conference. OVER is also 11-2 in the Suns last 13 road games when playing in the second game of a back-to-back set and 7-0 in their last 7 when their starting 5 logged more than 160 minutes the previous day. Take the OVER!

4* NBA Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Bucks UNDER

I think we are going to see a high-intensity game here on Sunday with the Bucks and 76ers facing off in Milwaukee. Both of these teams are trying to climb up the ranks in the Eastern Conference and I expect both to be highly motivated for a win. 

Philadelphia comes in playing their best basketball of the season, as they are 9-2 in their last 11 games. The 76ers will be motivated to keep that going. As for the Bucks, they come in having lost 4 straight and will be desperate for a win here. Note the UNDER has cashed in each of Philadelphia's last 4 games and each of Milwaukee's last 3 contests. 

Adding to all of this is a great system in play based off the Wizards recent struggles. The UNDER is 142-81 (64%) over the last 5 seasons in the month of March when you have a total greater than 200 in a game that involves a team that's lost 3 or more straight games. Take the UNDER! 

5* NBA Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Pacers UNDER

I love the value here with the UNDER in Sunday's NBA action that has the Wizards hosting the Pacers. Just 2-games separate these two teams in the Eastern Conference playoff race and I think both sides will be highly motivated here to get a win. 

Indiana snapped a short 2-game skid with an impressive 103-96 win at Milwaukee in their last game and should be motivated here to finish up their road trip with a .500 record at 2-2. As for Washington, they are looking to bounce back from back-to-back home losses to the Warriors and Raptors. 

It's also worth noting the UNDER has been a really strong play of late in Wizards' games. In fact, the UNDER has cashed in each of Washington's last 4 games. The Pacers have also played to the UNDER in each of their last 2 games and is 9-2-1 in Indiana's last 12 road games and 5-0-1 in their last 6 on the road vs a team with a winning home record. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB Colonial GAME OF THE MONTH on Northeastern -

Analysis will be posted shortly

3* LATE INFO INSIDER 

4* NCAAB Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Fresno State +

I like the value here with the Bulldogs catching points on the road against the Lobos. Fresno State comes in off a win at Air Force and are now 6-1 in their last 7 games. They have also won 4 straight on the road. New Mexico comes in having won 4 straight behind some ridiculous shooting, but that's not sustainable and this Bulldogs defense can get after you on the defensive side of the ball. 

Fresno State is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 as a road underdog and 8-1 ATS in their last 9 road games after allowing 25 points or less in the 1st half of their last game. 

Adding to this is a great system to fade New Mexico. Home favorites who have shot 47% or better from the field in 3 straight games are just 12-35 (25%) ATS over the last 5 seasons when facing a team that held their previous opponent to 33% or less from the field. Take Fresno State! 

4* NCAAB Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Louisville +

I like the value here with the Cardinals catching points in Saturday's road contest against the Wolfpack. Louisville will be in desperation mode here, as they need a win to get off the bubble for the NCAA Tournament. It looked like they were going to get that big win in their last game, as they had No. 1 Virginia on the ropes, but somehow blew a 4-point lead with less than 1-second to play. I think we see the Cardinals bounce back in a big way here with a huge road win at NC State. 

Louisville has been a covering machine in the ACC, as they are 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 conference games. They also have been a great bet on the road, where they are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games. NC State on the other hand is a team that hasn't played up to their potential against the better teams. The Wolfpack are just 7-15 ATS in their last 22 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games. Take Louisville! 

5* NCAAB Big 12 GAME OF THE MONTH on Oklahoma  State +

The Cowboys already went into Lawrence and defeated the Jayhawks 84-79 as a huge 12-point dog. I see no reason why we shouldn't expected a similarly competitive game in the rematch and I think there's an excellent chance Oklahoma State wins this one outright.

Keep in mind there's plenty of incentive here for the Cowboys, not only playing against an elite team and Big 12 regular season champ, but it's also senior day. 

The other big factor here is the spot for Kansas. I don't know that revenge is really on the mind of the Jayhawks here. They are coming off two huge wins at Texas Tech and at home against Texas to lock up yet another Big 12 title.

This game really doesn't mean a whole lot and I think Kansas is going to come out a bit flat, as they start to look ahead to next week's Big 12 Tournament and NCAA Tournament. Take Oklahoma State!

3* NCAAB Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on TCU UNDER

I like the value with the UNDER in Saturday's Big 12 action that has TCU at Texas Tech. I think the number here really says it all. These two teams combined for 154 points in their previous meeting this season, going over the mark set of 146. Now we have an even lower total in the rematch. That's a clear sign the books think this will be more of a defensive battle than the first meeting, as the public will be all over the OVER at the cheaper price. 

Texas Tech seems to always bring the defensive intensity when they play on Saturday. In fact, 10 of the last 12 games the Red Raiders have played on a Saturday have gone UNDER the total. Keep in mind this is senior day for Texas Tech, so we should get their very best effort on that side of the ball. The UNDER is also 4-1 in the Horned Frogs last 5 road games vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB Undervalued UNDERDOG on South Alabama +

I like the value here with the Jaguars in Saturday's Sun Belt action that has them on the road against the Panthers. South Alabama does come into this game having lost 4 straight, but I think it has them way undervalued here. Georgia State is far from an elite team and aren't exactly playing well right now.

The Panthers have lost 4 of their last 5 games, including a 13-point loss to Troy at home as a 7.5-point favorite in their last game. They also lost 82-90 at home to ULM as a 13.5-point favorite during this stretch. 

South Alabama covered last time out against the Georgia Southern and are 13-4 ATS on the season after covering in their previous contest. The Panthers on the other hand are are a mere 8-18 ATS in their last 26 when playing 2 games in a 3 day stretch and 1-8 ATS in their last 9 off a conference loss by 10 or more points. Take South Alabama! 

3* NCAAB Vegas LINE MISTAKE on Clemson +

I like the value here with the Tigers at basically a pick'em on the road against the Orange in Saturday's ACC action. This Clemson team has been flying under the radar all season and come in off an impressive 13-point win at home over a good Florida State team. I think they have no problem here against Syracuse. 

The Orange haven't been playing well at all down the stretch. They come in having lost each of their last 3 and are just 3-6 in their last 9. Last time out they got rolled by 15-point at BC. I think the woes for Syracuse continue here at home against the Tigers. Clemson has the talent offensively to attack that Orange zone and are one of the top defensive teams in the ACC. Take Clemson! 

5* NBA Non-Conference TOTAL OF THE MONTH on Warriors/Hawks OVER

I recommending playing the OVER in Friday's NBA action that has the Hawks hosting the Warriors. We can pretty much bank on Golden State putting up a big number here offensively. The Warriors haven't scored fewer than 105 points in 11 straight games and are averaging 119.4 ppg over their last 5. Atlanta doesn't have the talent or scheme defensively to slow them down. 

The key here is I don't think we are going to see Golden State bring the defensive intensity against an inferior opponent in what's the final game of a 3-game road trip and a nice 3-day break looming after this contest. I think we get a very similar type of game to the Warriors recent road game against the Knicks, where they won 125-111. 

OVER is 6-2-1 in the Warriors last 9 games vs a team with a losing record. It's also 13-4 in the Hawks last 17 home games vs a team with a winning road record and 7-1 in their last 8 home games vs a top tier team that's won more than 60% of their road games. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB Undervalued UNDERDOG on Cornell +

I like the value here with the Big Red catching near double-digits on the road against the Crimson. These two teams met back in early February at Cornell and the Big Red nearly pulled off the upset, losing 73-76. That result is important to note, as it sets up Cornell in a very profitable situation. 

The Big Red are 13-4 ATS in their last 17 road games when revving a loss of 3-points or less. They are also 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games overall vs a team with a winning home record and 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings in the series. Take Cornell! 

5* NCAAB MAAC GAME OF THE MONTH on Rider -

I like the value here with the Broncs laying what I feel is a short number in the quarterfinals of the MAAC Tournament. Rider earned a share of the MAAC regular-season title with a 15-3 league record. That includes two wins over St. Peter's who finished up 9th in the MAAC with a mere 6-12 record. 

The Peacocks did give the Broncs a scare in each of the meetings this season, but it won't be easy keeping this one close. That's because St. Peter's is at a big disadvantage here playin on no rest after taking on Monmouth last night. A game that went right down to the wire, as the Peacocks escaped with a 60-58 win. I just don't see St. Peter's having enough left in the tank here and the Broncs aren't going to overlook them given how close the previous two games were. 

Last time out Rider played in a shootout, defeating Iona 110-101. That's worth noting, as the Broncs are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 games after allowing more than 90 points. We also see that the Peacocks are a mere 2-7 ATS in their last 9 vs a team with a winning record and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 off a SU win. Take Rider! 

4* NCAAB Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Ohio State -

I like the value here with the Buckeyes laying what I think is a short number here against the Nittany Lions. The fact that Penn State won both regular-season meetings will have some looking to grab the points, but I fully expect Ohio State to not just get their revenge, but to do so in conniving fashion. Note the Buckeyes are a dominant 35-19 ATS in their last 54 when playing with double-revenge. 

Another key factor here is the rest advantage that Ohio State has in this matchup. The Buckeyes are well rested having not played since last Friday, while the Nittany Lions will be playing on 0 days of rest after facing off against Northwestern last night. Penn State is also a mere 1-7 ATS in their last 8 when playing against a top tier team that's won between 60% and 80% of their games. Take Ohio State! 

4* NCAAB Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Penn State UNDER

I like the value here with the UNDER in Friday's Big Ten action that has Penn State taking on Ohio State. These two teams have already played twice this season. The first meeting saw a ton of offensive fireworks, as the two combined for 171 points.

It was a completely different story in the rematch, as the two only combined for 135. I think we see an even bigger edge defensively in the 3rd meeting, keeping this well under the mark. 

UNDER is 20-9 on the season in Ohio State games. It's also 8-2 in the Buckeyes are playing only their 2nd game in a 8-day stretch and 7-1 in their last 8 when playing on a neutral site. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Michigan State -

I'm recommending laying the points here with the Spartans in Friday's quarterfinal action of the Big Ten Tournament. Michigan State will face off against the Badgers in the first game of the day and I think they make easy work of them. Wisconsin has been playing well down the stretch and come in having covered 5 straight, but let's not get carried away. This is still a very mediocre team (15-17 overall) and even with yesterday's win over Maryland, they are still a mere 4-10 away from home this season. 

While the Badgers edged out the Terps on Thursday, they shot just 36% from the field. It doesn't figure to get any better on Friday. Wisconsin's offense shot 37% or worse in both meetings against the Spartans during the regular season. I look for Michigan State to turn the defensive intensity up another notch here in tournament play and should be able to provide more than enough offense to pull away and cover this double-digit spread. 

Note that while the Badgers covered at home recently against Michigan State, the Spartans had gone 10-3 ATS in the previous 13 meetings in the series. They also come in with a dominant 22-9 ATS record in their last 13 games vs a team with a losing record. Take Michigan State! 

3* NBA Over/Under Total NO BRAINER on Nets UNDER

I like the value in the UNDER for Thursday's NBA action that has two of the league's worst going at it in the Kings and Nets. These are two of the worst offenses in the league. The Kings rank dead last in offensive efficiency and the Nets are far behind at 26th. Note they played once already this season and combined for a mere 203 points in a 104-99 Sacramento win at Brooklyn. I'm expecting a similar outcome here. 

UNDER is 9-2 in the Kings last 11 games vs the Eastern Conference and 12-3 in their last 15 after allowing 105 or more points in 4 straight games. UNDER is also 6-2 in the Nets last 8 vs a team with a losing record, 20-8 in their last 28 off a SU loss and 12-4 in their last 16 when revenging a home loss to an opponent. 

Adding to this is a great system in play. The UNDER is 46-18 (72%) going all the way back to 1996 when you have a total of 210 to 219.5 where you have a bad team (Win pct. 25% to 40%) off a road loss by 10 or more (Kings) and are playing another team with a losing record. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB Late Night HEAVY HITTER on Austin Peay -

I like the value here with the Governors laying a short number in Thursday's quarterfinals action of the Ohio Valley Tournament. Austin Peay ended the season on a 7-3 run, which included a 7-point win at Eastern Illinois. The Governors also defeated the Panthers at home by 16 earlier in the year and have won 5 straight in the series. 

I like this spot for Austin Peay off that crushing loss at home to Murray State in their regular-season finale. The Governors are a a rock-solid 6-2 ATS in their last 8 off a SU loss and are also 7-1 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games. They also have a big edge in rest here, as they have had a full 4 days off since their last game, while the Panthers had to play last night in the opening round, which they gutted out 73-71 over Tennessee State. 

Adding to all of this is a great system in favor of the Governors. Favorites with a winning record that are playing a team with a losing record on a neutral site are 31-9 (78%) ATS when they come in having gone over the total by 42 or more points in their previous 5 games. Take Austin Peay!  

4* NCAAB Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Missouri State -

I like the value here with the Bears laying a short number against the Crusaders in Thursday's opening round action of the Missouri Valley Tournament. Missouri State won both meetings during the regular season and I see no reason why they won't finish off the sweep. The Bears won going away by 17 at Valpo back in late December and by 7 at home in the rematch (trailed by 5 at the half). Missouri State's defense was the difference in both meetings. They held the Valpo to just 34.8% shooting on the road and 35.5% at home. Look for their defense to be the difference once again. 

Crusaders are just 4-14 ATS in their last 18 games in the first round of a tournament and are a mere 2-10 ATS in their last 12 neutral site games with a total set between 130 and 139.5. Bears are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 neutral site games. 

Adding to all of this is a great system in favor of the Bears. Favorites with a winning record that are playing a team with a losing record on a neutral site are 31-9 (78%) ATS when they come in having gone over the total by 42 or more points in their previous 5 games. Take Missouri State! 

4* NCAAB Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Cal +

I like the value here with the Golden Bears catching a big number on the road against the Sun Devils tonight. I just think this is way too many points for Arizona State to be laying here. The Sun Devils aren't exactly playing their best basketball right now. They come in having lost 3 straight. The most recent being a 75-79 defeat at Oregon State, who is now just 6-10 in Pac-12 play. 

There's no denying that Cal is right there with Washington State for the honors of being the worst team in the conference, but I think the Golden Bears show up here. Cal gave the Sun Devils all they could handle in a 8-point home loss earlier this season and now will be out for revenge. This is also a big bounce back spot after getting embarrassed on their home floor 51-68 by Washington last time out. 

Adding to this is a great system in favor of the Golden Bears. Underdogs of 10 to 19.5 points who are revenging a same season loss and are off a home loss where they scored 60 or fewer points are a dominant 94-53 (64%) ATS over the last 5 seasons. Take Cal! 

4* NCAAB No Doubt ATS ANNIHILATOR on Jacksonville State -

I like the value here with the Gamecocks laying what I feel is a short number against the Golden Eagles in Thursday's quarterfinals action of the Ohio Valley Tournament. Jacksonville State closed out the regular season with back-to-back impressive wins. They first knocked off Belmont 78-67 as a 3-point dog and then rolled over Tennessee Tech 66-57 as a mere 3-point road favorite. 

Some might think the Golden Eagles are the play here with revenge from that recent loss, but they also beat Tennessee Tech by 17 on their home floor earlier this month. On top of that, they have an edge here playing on a full 4 days of rest, while the Golden Eagles are on no rest after playing last night against SIU Edwardsville in the opening round. A game they won 60-51, but shot a miserable 34.5% from the field. 

The Gamecocks are an impressive 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games vs a team with a winning record and are a perfect 7-0 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games. Golden Eagles are a mere 3-9 ATS in their last 12 off a SU win. Take Jacksonville State! 

3* NCAAB Undervalued UNDERDOG on Charleston Southern +

I like the value here with the Buccaneers catching a decent number against the Bulldogs in the Quarterfinals of the Big South Tournament. Charleston Southern got a tune-up game last night, as they rolled over Presbyterian 68-51, covering the number as a 9.5-point favorite. I like the Bucs chances of carrying over that performance and giving UNC-Asheville all they can handle. 

Charleston Southern lost both regular-season meetings against the Bulldogs, but the key thing is they were competitive in both. They only lost by 10 at UNC-Asheville and by a mere 5-points at home. The Bucs shot 47% or better in both meetings and I believe their ability to score with the Bulldogs will allow them to keep it close and maybe even pull off the upset. Take Charleston Southern! 

5* NCAAB Big Ten GAME OF THE MONTH on Michigan -

I love the value here with the Wolverines laying single-digits against the Hawkeyes this afternoon. Iowa was able to pull away late and defeat Illinois 96-87 in the opening round of the Big Ten Tournament on Wednesday. I'm not reading into that performance at all. Michigan has a big time advantage here in rest with the Hawkeyes playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back and let's not forget they swept the season series. They first won by 7 at Iowa and later won by 15 on their home floor. 

While Iowa was able to knock off the Fighting Illini, this Hawkeyes' team has had a miserable time just keeping games competitive on the road. Iowa's loss at Michigan was one 7 losses away from home in Big Ten play by double-digits. The only two exceptions being against Rutgers and Minnesota, who were the first two teams out of the tournament. 

Iowa's inability to defend should allow the Wolverines to pull away. Iowa is giving up staggering 82.3 ppg away from home, while the Wolverines are only allowing 68.6 ppg away from home and have a more than capable offense. Take Michigan!

3* NBA Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Pacers OVER 

I like the value here with the OVER in Wednesday's NBA action that has the Hawks hosting the Pacers. These two teams faced off last Friday in the first game out of the break for both sides and the two teams combined for 209 points with Atlanta mustering a mere 93 points. 

The key here to this one being even higher scoring is that the Hawks should be more of a threat offensively at home, as the Pacers are not the same team defensively on the road. On the flip side of this, we should see a similar offensive outburst from Indiana, as Atlanta is equally bad on the defensive end at home as they are on the road. 

OVER is 5-1 in the Hawks last 6 off a loss by 10 or more and 4-1 in their last 5 home games vs a team with a losing road record. Take the OVER!
