20* WOLVES/MAVS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wolves +4½ -110

My money is on the Timberwolves to cash in a cover on the road against the Mavs. This is a brutal spot for Dallas playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back, as well as their 3rd game in 4 days. Minnesota on the other hand is well rested playing with 2 days of rest and just their 2nd game in the last 7 days. Wolves are also a great road team, going 7-2 SU and 7-2 ATS to start the year. BET MINNESOTA +4.5! 

20* TEXAS TECH/DEPAUL CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on DePaul PK -103

My money is on the Blue Demons to cash in a win and cover at home against Texas Tech. The Red Raiders were expected to take a step back this year after reaching the title game a season ago. I just think they are still overvalued from last year. They just lost to Iowa 72-61 in Vegas and 83-76 to Creighton. DePaul is 8-0 and playing as well as anyone as they already have two big road wins over Iowa and Minnesota, as well as a win at BC. BET THE BLUE DEMONS PK! 

20* UTEP/NEW MEXICO ST CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UTEP vs New Mexico State over 123½ -110

My money is on the OVER 123.5 in Tuesday's college hoops action that has the Miners visiting the Aggies. UTEP is averaging 77.2 ppg and New Mexico State is putting up 82.7 ppg at home. Miners are shooting 49.5% from the field and the Aggies are connecting on 48.5% of their shots at home. The books have simply missed the mark with this low total. BET THE OVER 123.5! 

20* ISLANDERS/CANADIENS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Islanders +109

My money is on the Islanders to cash in a win on the road against the Canadiens in Tuesday's NHL action. Islanders come in off back-to-back wins and have won 7 of their last 10 overall. It's not going near as good for Montreal, as the Canadiens enter on a 8-game losing streak. BET NEW YORK +109! 

20* PISTONS/CAVS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cavs +3 -105

My money is on the Cavs to cash in a win and cover as a small home dog against the Pistons Tuesday night. I just don't get Detroit being favored on the road. I know Cleveland isn't very good, but neither are the Pistons. Detroit is just 1-9 on the road. Cavs are going to give it their all and might be adding a couple key pieces to the rotation. BET CLEVELAND +3! 

15* VALPARAISO/E MICHIGAN CBB SHARP WINNER on Valparaiso vs Eastern Michigan over 134 -115

My money is on the OVER 134 in Tuesday's college hoops action that has Eastern Michigan hosting Valparaiso. The Eagles have won 3 straight at home and in the process have averaged an impressive 88.7 ppg. That offense should continue to roll against a Valparaiso defense that is giving up 79.2 ppg and 50.6% shooting on the road. Crusaders can also score, as they are averaging 78.0 ppg. BET THE OVER 134! 

20* BLUE/BLACKHAWKS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blues vs Blackhawks under 6 -117

My money is on the UNDER 6 in Monday's NHL action that has the Blues visiting the Blackhawks. On one side you have a struggling Chicago offense that has scored 3 or fewer goals in 6 straight games and St Louis comes in having held 4 straight to 3 or fewer and are giving up just 2.6 goals/game in their last 5. Blackhawks are going to be tired playing their 3rd game in 5 days and the UNDER has gone 11-4 in their last 15 in this spot. UNDER is also 15-5 in St Louis' last 20 off 2 straight wins by 2 or more. BET THE UNDER 6! 

20* WARRIORS/HAWKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawks -4½ -110

My money is on the Hawks to cash in a win and cover at home against the Warriors. This is a good spot to buy low on Atlanta, who just saw their losing streak reach double-digits in an ugly 158-111 loss at Houston on Saturday. I expect a big effort here at home. Golden State is just 4-17 overall and a mere 2-10 on the road. BET THE HAWKS -4.5! 

20* FURMAN/S FLORIDA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Furman -3½ -109

My money is on Furman to cash in a win and cover at South Florida as a small road favorite. The Paladins are off to an impressive 6-1 start, while the Bulls have been a major disappointment early on, going just 3-4 in their first 7 games. When Furman is favored on the road they are almost an automatic play, as they are 9-1 ATS last 10 times they are laying points away from home. BET THE PALADINS -3.5! 

20* ST BONAVENTURE/SAN DIEGO CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on San Diego vs St Bonaventure over 122½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 122.5 in Sunday's college hoops action between St. Bonaventure and San Diego. I just don't see a lot of offense in this one. Bonnies are a very limited offensive team. They have scored under 60 in 4 of their 6 games this season. They can do that because they play solid defense, as they only give up 65 ppg. San Diego only scores 63.7 ppg on the road. BET THE UNDER 122.5! 

20* RAMS/CARDINALS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rams vs Cardinals over 47 -110

My money is on the OVER 47 in Sunday's NFC West clash between the Rams and Cardinals. Arizona is the perfect opponent for LA to get that offense back on track. Cardinals have allowed at least 21 points in every game they have played and are allowing 30.6 ppg at home. Rams have allowed 25 ppg in division games and the Cardinals have the passing game to exploit their weak secondary. BET THE OVER 47! 

20* CELTICS/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Celtics -7 -115

My money is on the Celtics to cash in a win and cover at New York on Sunday. Big bounce back spot for Boston off a loss at Brooklyn Friday and they absolutely destroyed the Knicks 118-95 in their previous trip to New York this season. Knicks have also lost 5 straight. NY only averages 101 pgp at home and Boston only allows 101.5 on the road. Knicks won't be able to score enough to keep this within the number. BET THE CELTICS -7! 

20* STARS/WILD NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Stars vs Wild under 5½ -134

My money is on the UNDER 5.5 in Sunday's NHL action between the Stars and Wild. Dallas comes in in a major offensive funk. After getting shutout on Tuesday at Chicago they managed just 1 goal at St Louis on Friday. Hard to see them getting the offense going against a Wild defense that has held 3 straight teams to 3 or fewer goals. Minnesota did score 7 in their last game, but had scored 3 or fewer 6 of their previous 8 and Stars have held 6 straight teams to 3 or fewer. BET THE UNDER 5.5! 

20* ARMY/HAWAII CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Army vs Hawaii under 55 -110

My money is on the UNDER 55 in Saturday's late night action that has Army visiting Hawaii. There's just not a lot of motivation here for the Warriors with a spot already locked up in next week's MWC title game against Boise State. As for Army, they are a team that loves to run the ball and eat up clock and should be able to do just that against a Hawaii defense that is giving up 5.6 yards/carry. Army knows they can't get in a shootout and expect to win, so they are going to run, run and run some more to keep the Warriors offense off the field. BET THE UNDER 55! 

15* OREGON ST/OREGON CFB SHARP WINNER on Oregon State vs Oregon under 66½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 66.5 in Saturday's Pac-12 rivalry matchup between Oregon State and Oregon. I just think the number is too high given the circumstances. Oregon has zero motivation having just lost at ASU to end their dreams of making the playoffs. Their entire focus is now on the Pac-12 title game and I just don't see them going off offensively. I also don't see the Beavers putting up a big number. BET THE UNDER 66.5! 

15* CLEMSON/S CAROLINA CFB SHARP WINNER on Clemson vs South Carolina under 51 -109

My money is on the UNDER 51 in Saturday's big rivalry game between South Carolina and Clemson. I just think the OVER here is inflated a bit because of the fact that the Tigers have scored 50+ in 4 straight games, but those 4 were against the likes of BC, Wofford, NC State and Wake Forest. None of those have a defense. South Carolina is at least respectable and I think they came keep Clemson to 35 or less. As for the Gamecocks offense, I don't see them scoring a ton in this one against an elite Tigers defense. BET THE UNDER 51! 

20* LOUISVILLE/KENTUCKY CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Louisville vs Kentucky under 53 -107

My money is on the UNDER 53 in Saturday's rivalry game between Louisville and Kentucky. I know the Cardinals have a decent offense, but I don't see them going off on the road against a good Wildcats defense. I also don't see Kentucky's offense doing a lot. UNDER is 8-1 in Wildcats last 9 vs a team that averages 425 or more yards/game. BET THE UNDER 53! 

20* SAN FRANCISCO/HAWAII CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawaii +4½ -111

My money is on the Rainbow Warriors to cash in a cover here as a small 4.5-point dog. San Fran has started out 7-0 and are simply overvalued here on the road because of it. Hawaii is no pushover. Rainbow Warriors only two losses are to South Dakota and Illinois. They have covered 3 straight. BET HAWAII +4.5! 

15* SAN FRANCISCO/HAWAII CFB SHARP WINNER on San Francisco vs Hawaii under 147½ -109

My money is on the UNDER in Friday's college hoops action between San Fran and Hawaii. These are two strong defensive teams. San Fran is scoring a very misleading 88.9 ppg, as they have played some cupcake teams who don't play much defense. They Rainbow Warriors only giving up 68.7 ppg and just held Illinois to 66 on the road. OVER has been set way too high in this one. BET THE UNDER 147.5! 

20* WIZARDS/LAKERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wizards vs Lakers over 224½ -115

My Money is on the OVER 224.5 in Friday's NBA action between the Lakers and Wizards. In Washington's last 5 games they are scoring 122.6 ppg and giving up 122.4 ppg. That alone is enough reason to take the OVER. Lakers are scoring 115.8 ppg and giving up 111.2 ppg. BET THE OVER 224.5! 

20* BLUE/STARS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blues +134

My money is on the Blues to cash in a win here as a decently priced road dog against the Stars. Dallas has been playing well, but they just had their 7-game winning streak snapped in a 3-0 loss at Chicago. It's always tough to get right back on the winning track after a long winning streak is snapped and this is a pretty decent Blues team that is poised to get back on track here. BET ST LOUIS +134! 

15* BLUES/STARS NHL SHARP WINNER on Blues vs Stars over 5 -125

My money is on the OVER 5 in Friday's NHL action between St Louis and Dallas. Stars were shutout in their last game, but have scored 4 or more 5 of their last 7. Blues are also clicking offensively with 13 goals in their last 4 games. Neither defense is anything special. BET THE OVER 5! 

20* SIU-EDWARDSVILLE/UC-RIVERSIDE CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on SIU-Edwardsville vs Cal-Riverside over 122½ -115

My money is on the OVER 122.5 in Friday's college hoops action between UC-Riverside and SIU-Edwardsville. OVER is 9-1 in Edwardsville's last 10 after losing 4 of 5 and 14-5 in their last 19 off a loss by 15 or more. OVER is also 12-3 in Riverside's last 15 at home after giving up 65 or fewer points in 3 straight games. BET THE OVER 122.5! 

20* TOLEDO/C MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Central Michigan -10 -110

My money is on the Chippewas to cash in an easy win and cover as a double-digit home favorite against the Rockets. This script for this game turned upside down when Western Michigan was upset at Northern Illinois on Tuesday. Had the Broncos won they would have clinched a spot in the MAC title game. The loss however, opened the door for Central Michigan and if they win they are now the team that plays Miami (OH) next week. Not a lot for Toledo to play for and they just haven't been that great of late. BET THE CHIPPEWAS -10! 

20* DEVILS/CANADIENS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Canadiens -160

My money is on the Canadiens to cash in a win in Thursday's lone NHL action. Montreal has lost 5 straight and I just think they are due for a big game. Devils are the ideal candidate to get back on track against. New Jersey has lost 3 of 4 and have been outscored 12-4 in those 3 defeats. BET THE CANADIENS -160! 

20* BILLS/COWBOYS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bills vs Cowboys over 46 -109

My money is on the OVER 46 in Thursday's NFL action between the Bills and Cowboys. I'm pretty confident Dallas is going to score early and often, as they are averaging 30.2 ppg at home. I also think Buffalo will be able to move the ball and do enough here to get us over the mark. Keep in mind defenses tend to struggle when playing on just 3-days of rest. BET THE OVER 46! 

20* TENNESSEE ST/CAL POLY CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cal Poly +7½ -114

My money is on the Mustangs to cash in a cover here as a dog against the Tigers. Cal Poly comes in at just 1-5, but are a profitable 3-2 ATS. They have also been a dog of 16 or more in all 5 of their losses, so the record is to be expected. I just don't think Tennessee Tech is good enough to be laying this kind of number and could see the Mustangs actually winning this one outright. BET CAL POLY +7.5! 

20* HOFSTRA/SAN DIEGO CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hofstra PK -110

My money is on the Pride to cash in a win and cover as a pick'em at San Diego. Hofstra has won 3 straight, including two impressive road wins over UCLA and CS-Fullerton. They beat the Bruins 88-78 as a 14.5-point dog and rolled the Titans 78-57 as a 3-point favorite. San Diego has lost 3 straight and are just 2-5 on the season. BET HOFSTRA PK! 

15* S DAKOTA/CAL BAPTIST CBB SHARP WINNER on California Baptist +1½ -103

My money is on the Lancers to cash in a win and cover here as a small home dog against the Coyotes. Cal Baptist is just 3-3 but two of those losses are on the road against Texas and Cal. They covered as a 16.5-point dog against Texas and were just a 5-point dog agains Cal. BET THE LANCERS +1.5! 

20* MAPLE LEAFS/RED WINGS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Maple Leafs -185

My money is on the Maple Leafs to cash in a win at Detroit Wednesday night. Toronto has won two straight on the road and scored 8 goals in the process. Red Wings have lost 6 straight and allowed 4 or more goals in 4 of their last 5 games. BET MAPLE LEAFS -185! 

15* PANTHERS/CAPITALS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Panthers vs Capitals under 7 -130

My money is on the UNDER 7 in Wednesday's NHL action between Florida and Washington. Capitals offense has left them, as they have scored just 1 goal in each of their last 2 games and 3 or fewer in 6 of their last 7. Panthers have scored just 2 in each of their last 2. BET THE UNDER 7! 

20* KINGS/76ERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Kings vs 76ers under 213½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 213.5 in tonight's NBA action between the Kings and 76ers. Philadelphia has been locked in defensively of late, as they are giving up just 98.0 ppg in their last 5. They are also a dominant defensive team at home, where they are giving up 97.8 ppg on the season. Kings offense is limited at just 105.3 ppg and have been playing some decent defense here of late. BET THE UNDER 213.5! 

20* UC-DAVIS/CALIFORNIA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UC-Davis vs California under 124 -110

My money is on the UNDER 124 in Tuesday's college hoops action between UC-Davis and Cal. The Golden Bears have scored fewer than 55 in each of their last 3 games, shooting under 39% from the field in all 3 of those contests. I could see those struggles continuing against a UC-Davis team that doesn't exactly push the pace offensively. UC Davis also doesn't have a great offense and Cal has been really good on the defensive end. BET THE UNDER 124! 

20* WIZARDS/NUGGETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wizards +10½ -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a cover here as a 10.5-point dog against the Nuggets. There's no question that Denver is the better team, but with how well they have been playing (9-1 L10) and a 3-day break looming after this game, I think they are going to have a hard time giving Washington their full attention. Wizards might not be winning a lot of games, but they are 10-4 ATS on the season, which includes a 6-1 ATS mark on the road. BET WASHINGTON +10.5! 

20* BRUINS/CANADIENS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Canadiens +107

My money is on the Canadiens to cash in a win at basically a pick'em at home against the Bruins. Montreal has lost 4 straight, while Boston has won 3 in a row, but that doesn't concern me. Canadiens have lost 3 of those games by just 1 goal and even with the recent run the Bruins are just 4-5 in their last 9 games. BET MONTREAL +107! 

20* W MICHIGAN/N ILLINOIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Western Michigan vs Northern Illinois under 53 -110

My money is on the UNDER 53 in Tuesday's MAC action between Western Michigan and Northern Illinois. I think we are seeing an inflated total because of the Broncos giving up 30+ in each of their last 2, but with them coming off a bye and a spot in the MAC Championship Game on the line, I think they play much better. It also helps that Northern Illinois is down their starting QB and managed just 17-points against Eastern Michigan without him in their last game. Huskies bowl hopes may be over, but I think they play hard here knowing what's at stake for the Broncos. BET THE UNDER 53! 

15* MERCER/ST BONAVENTURE CBB SHARP WINNER on St Bonaventure -6 -110

My money is on the Bonnies to cash in a win and cover at home against Mercer in Tuesday's college hoops action. While the Bears are off a big upset win at Illinois-Chicago, I think they struggle here playing their 3rd road game in a span of just 8 days and only getting 2 days off from their last game. BET ST BONAVENTURE -6! 

20* RAVENS/RAMS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ravens vs Rams over 46½ -110

20* MAGIC/PISTONS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic +5 -110

My money is on the Magic to cash in a cover at Detroit tonight. Pistons are getting a lot of love here because Orlando is down both Vucevic and Gordon, but I just don't trust this Detroit team at all right now. Pistons are just 1-6 in their last 7 games and have been a complete no show in a number of those losses. Magic aren't just going to lay down and wouldn't be shocked at all if they won outright. BET ORLANDO +5! 

20* FLAMES/PENGUINS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Flames +136

My money is on the Flames to cash in a win as a decently priced road dog against the Penguins. I know it's been a struggle of late for Calgary, who is just 1-6 in their last 7, but they are coming in off a win at Philly and it's not like the Penguins are playing great hockey at the moment. Penguins are just 4-6 in their last 10. BET THE FLAMES +136! 

15* GEORGIA/DAYTON CBB SHARP WINNER on Dayton -2 -115

My money is on the Flyers to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point favorite against the Bulldogs. Both of these teams come into this matchup undefeated, but Georgia has played 3 cupcakes and arguably should have lost at home last time out to in-state rival Georgia Tech. Yellow Jackets shot just 12-23 (52%) from the free throw line and lost by just 4. I just don't think the Bulldogs are that good and this line backs that up. BET DAYTON -2! 

20* LOYOLA-CHICAGO/USF CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Loyola-Chicago PK -108

My money is on the Ramblers to cash in a win and cover against South Florida in Monday's college hoops action. These two will be facing off in the first round of the Cayman Islands Classic. Loyola is simply the better team. Ramblers just destroyed IUPUI 85-62 in their last game. The same IUPUI team that beat USF on the road 70-53. Loyola is just 3-2, but are outscoring opponents by 9.2 ppg and Bulls are 3-11 ATS last 14 against good teams that are outscoring opponents by 8+ points/game. BET THE RAMBLERS -108! 

15* NICHOLLS ST/UMBC CBB SHARP WINNER on Nicholls State vs Maryland-Baltimore County under 127½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 127.5 in Sunday's college hoops action that has Nicholls State taking on UMBC. Both teams are shooting awful away from home. Nicholls is hitting just 39% from the field away from home and UMBC is only hitting 35% on the highway. BET THE UNDER 127.5! 

20* COLORADO/WYOMING CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Colorado vs Wyoming over 123 -110

My money is on the OVER 123 in Sunday's college hoops action between Wyoming and Colorado. The Cowboys really like to slow things down to a snails pace and I don't think the Buffaloes mind playing slow. They just played a game against UC-Irvine that saw just 122 points. UNDER is 10-0 in Colorado's last 10 after 3 straight games as a favorite and 9-1 in their last 10 tournament games. BET THE UNDER 123! 

20* HURRICANES/RED WINGS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hurricanes -165

My money is on the Hurricanes to cash in a win as a big road favorite at New Jersey. Easy fade of the Devils on Sunday. New Jersey has lost 5 in a row and have allowed 18 goals in their last 4 games. Carolina has won 5 of 6 ands scored 4 or more 5 of their last 6. BET THE HURRICANES -165! 

20* MAVS/ROCKETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Mavs +5½ -105

My money is on the Mavs to cash in a cover as a 5.5-point dog at Houston. Dallas is playing out of their minds right now. In their last two games they destroyed the Cavs 143-101 and the Warriors 143-94. THey have won 4 straight overall and are catching the Rockets at the right time. Houston is in a really difficult portion of their schedule. This will be their 6th game in the last 10 days and the last two were massive games against Western Conference powers Denver and LA, both on the road. BET THE MAVS +5.5! 

20* PANTHERS/SAINTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Panthers vs Saints under 46½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 46.5 in Sunday's NFC South showdown between the Saints and Panthers. We have seen Carolina's offense go into a major funk over the last two weeks and I don't see it getting any better against this top tier Saints defense. It's going to be up to the Panthers defense to keep this close and I think they can do just that. While New Orleans scored 34 last week against Tampa they only had 328 yards of offense and the week before had just 310 against the Falcons. BET THE UNDER 46.5! 

15* LA TECH/UAB (TOT) CFB SHARP WINNER on Louisiana Tech vs UAB under 45 -109

My money is on the UNDER 45 in Saturday's C-USA tilt between Louisiana Tech and UAB. LA Tech's offense managed just 10-points in their last game without starting QB J'mar Smith and top wide out Adrian Hardy. Both are still suspended, so expect more of the same struggles. As for UAB's offense they are only averaging a mediocre 25.5 ppg and have scored 10 or fewer in 2 of their last 3. BET THE UNDER 45! 

15* LA TECH/UAB (ATS) CFB SHARP WINNER on Louisiana Tech +7 -115

My money is on the Bulldogs to cash in a cover as a 7-point dog at UAB in Saturday's C-USA matchup. LA Tech lost 31-10 at Marshall after having their starting QB and top wide out suspended right before the game. That's tough to overcome on short notice, especially on the road against a team as talented as Marshall. UAB is no where near as good as their 7-3 record and should not be laying this many points in this one. BET LOUISIANA TECH +7! 

15* MICHIGAN/INDIANA CFB SHARP WINNER on Michigan vs Indiana over 52½ -110

My money is on the OVER 52.5 in Saturday's Big Ten matchup between Indiana and Michigan. I just feel like the Wolverines are a better offensive team than they get credit for. They really have made some nice strides of the course of the season and are finally playing with the tempo we thought we were going to see from the start. Indiana's offense and their high-powered passing game is key, as Michigan is much better suited at stopping the run. BET THE OVER 52.5! 

20* LIBERTY/VIRGINIA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Liberty +17 -109

My money is on the Flames to cash in a cover as a big road dog against the Cavaliers on Saturday. There's no denying that Virginia is the better team, but that's not the issue here. It's motivation. This game means nothing for the Panthers, whose primary focus right now is on winning the ACC Coastal. Next week's game against Va Tech will decide whether they do just that. I expect Virginia to go through the motions and if they aren't careful they might lose. BET LIBERTY +17! 

15* E CAROLINA/UCONN CFB SHARP WINNER on East Carolina vs Connecticut under 66 -109

My money is on the UNDER 66 in Saturday's American Athletic matchup between UConn and East Carolina. Most of the focus here will be on the poor defensive numbers of these two teams and I think it has the number way too high. ECU is giving up 33.1 ppg and the Huskies are allowing 40.6 ppg. Thing is UConn can't score. Huskies are only averaging 18.6 ppg and while the defense is still bad it's better at home. BET THE UNDER 66! 

20* COLORADO ST/WYOMING CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Colorado State vs Wyoming over 50½ -109

My money is on the OVER 50.5 in Friday's MWC action that has Colorado State visiting Wyoming. I think this is a good matchup for both offenses. The Rams defense can't stop anyone and is awful against the run. The Cowboys are much better at stopping the run and the Rams offense is built around their passing game. I expect big plays and quick scores from both sides in this one. BET THE OVER 50.5! 

20* CELTICS/NUGGETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Celtics vs Nuggets under 210 -110

My money is on the UNDER 210 in Friday's NBA contest that has the Nuggets hosting the Celtics. Boston's a great defense team and will really have to rely on that defense in this one, as they just aren't going to have enough gas in the tank to push the pace playing their 5th straight on the road and 4th in 6 days. Denver is a solid defensive team as well and I think we see a similar score to the Nuggets last game against the Rockets, which ended up with just 200 points. BET THE UNDER 210! 

20* RANGERS/SENATORS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rangers vs Senators under 6½ +103

My money is on the UNDER 6.5 in Friday's NHL matchup that has the Rangers visiting the Senators. Really not a lot to think about here with how Ottawa's games have been trending of late. The UNDER is 7 -2 in their last 9 games as they continue to struggle to score while playing solid defense. UNDER isn't quite as good with Rangers, but is a solid 6-4 in their last 10. BET THE UNDER 6.5! 

15* PRAIRIE VIEW/GEORGIA ST CBB SHARP WINNER on Georgia State -7 -110

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a win and cover against Prairie View. These two teams both come in with just 1 win, but I've just been much more impressed with this Georgia State team and think they are easily the more talented team in this matchup. Panthers have covered 14 of their last 19 on the road in non-conference and 9-1 in their last 10 on the road after playing their previous game as a dog. BET GEORGIA STATE -7! 

20* GEORGE WASH/UMKC CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UMKC vs George Washington over 122½ -110

My money is on the OVER 122.5 in Friday's early afternoon clash between George Washington and UMKC. This is just too low a number. UMKC's defense comes in allowing a mere 58.6 ppg, but those are skewed because of their two games against non-D1 teams in Avila and Bacone, where they allowed 49 and 38 points. Their last game was against Bacone and that's important to note as the OVER is 9-1 in UMKC's last 10 after allowing 65 or less in 2 straight game. OVER is also 13-3 in their last 16 against teams who shoot 42% or worse. BET THE OVER 122.5! 

20* PELICANS/SUNS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pelicans +6 -110

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in a cover here as a 6-point dog against the Suns. New Orleans comes in with some confidence as they have won 2 straight. Pelicans are starting to healthy too and injuries have played a big part of their poor 5-9 start. Suns have lost 3 of 4 and they are now dealing with the injury bug, as their two big free agent pickups in Ricky Rubio and Aaron Baynes are both out. BET THE PELICANS +6! 

15* JETS/STARS NHL SHARP WINNER on Jets +148

My money is on the Jets to cash in a win as a decently priced road dog against the Stars. I know Dallas is playing great right now, as they have won 4 straight and 9 of 10 overall, but it's not like Winnipeg isn't playing well. The Jets have won 3 straight and 7 of 9. Simply too good a price to pass up on the road dog. BET WINNIPEG +148! 

20* AVALANCHE/WILD NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wild +110

My money is on the Wild to cash in a win as a small home dog against the Avalanche. Colorado comes in having won 5 of their last 6, but I just think the tough scheduling spot will be too much to overcome. Avalanche are playing their 5th straight on the road and are on just 1 day of rest. Wild are playing for just the second time in 5 days. BET MINNESOTA +110! 

20* NC STATE/GA TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on NC State vs Georgia Tech under 49 -110

My money is on the UNDER 49 in Thursday's ACC matchup between Georgia Tech and NC State. A lot of people are going to focus on the poor defensive numbers and assume these two can at least hit 50, but I don't think that will be the case. These are two awful offensive teams. Georgia Tech is averaging just 17.9 ppg in ACC play and NC State is worse at just 15.5 ppg. Wolfpack need this to keep bowl hopes alive and Yellow Jackets will show up for a prime time home game. BET THE UNDER 49! 

20* TEXAS/GEORGETOWN CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Texas -4 -108

My money is on the Longhorns to cash in a win and cover against Georgetown, as the two will face off at Madison Square Garden in the opening round of the Empire Classic. I think Shaka Smart has put together a really good team in Austin this year and are going to surprise some people. They are 4-0 and should no problem pulling away from what I think is a pretty average Hoyas team that already lost by 15 at home to Penn State. BET THE LONGHORNS -4! 

20* CAPITALS/RANGERS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rangers +155

My money is on the Rangers to cash in a win as a big home dog against the Capitals. Washington has been playing some great hockey, but it has them way overvalued here. Rangers have lost their last two, but both were on the road. Home teams that have lost 2 straight on the road are 123-83 (60%) on the money line in the 1st half of the season over the last 5 years. BET THE RANGERS +155! 

20* AKRON/MIAMI (OH) CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Akron vs Miami-OH under 44 -109

My money is on the UNDER 44 in Wednesday's MAC game that has Akron visiting Miami (OH). Zips are one of the worst offensive teams I have seen in years. They are scoring an atrocious 7.8 ppg in MAC play. Key here is that I don't see Miami running up the score. RedHawks primary focus is staying healthy as they have locked up a spot in the MAC title game. BET THE UNDER 44! 

20* SPURS/WIZARDS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wizards +2 -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a win at home against the Spurs. I just don't get why San Antonio keeps getting so much love. The Spurs are just 5-9 overall and have lost 6 straight. They are also just 1-5 on the road where they are allowing 113 ppg. Wizards are just 3-8, but one of the best in terms of covering with a 8-3 ATS mark. Washington should be poised for a great effort here playing on 2 days rest. BET THE WIZARDS +2! 

15* JAMES MADISON/OLD DOMINION CBB SHARP WINNER on Old Dominion -9½ -108

My money is on the Monarchs to cash in an easy win and cover at home against James Madison. This is just not a good matchup for the Dukes who really rely on their ability to score in transition. ODU is one of the best in the country at not letting teams exploit them on the fast break. I just don't see James Madison being able to score enough to keep this within single digits. BET THE MONARCHS -9.5! 

20* N KENTUCKY/BALL ST CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ball State -7½ -108

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win and cover at home against the Norse. I just think Northern Kentucky will have a hard time keeping this close without starting point guard Jalen Tate. They were able to win last time out against Coppin State without him, but that's an awful team. Ball State has started out 3-1 with their only loss coming at Evansville. Most recently they routed Indiana State by 14 as a mere 2-point favorite. The game before they rolled Illinois Chicago on the road by 19 as a 4.5-point favorite. Books just haven't caught up to this team. BET BALL STATE -7.5! 

20* MAPLE LEAFS/GOLDEN KNIGHTS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Golden Knights -115

My money is on the Golden Knights to cash in a win at home against the Maple Leafs. Toronto is just an easy fade right now. Maple Leafs have lost 5 straight and are in a bad scheduling spot here playing their 3rd game in 5 days. Toronto is just 2-9 in their last 11 when playing their 3rd game in 5 days. BET VEGAS -115! 

15* MAPLE LEAFS/GOLDEN KNIGHTS NHL SHARP WINNER on Maple Leafs vs Golden Knights under 6½ +115

My money is on the UNDER 6.5 in Tuesday's NHL action that has the Maple Leafs visiting the Golden Knights. These are two teams that more times than not struggle to find the net. Toronto has scored 3 or fewer in 5 of their last 7 and Vegas has scored 3 or fewer in 7 of their last 8. BET THE UNDER 6.5! 

20* WYOMING/DETROIT CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Detroit PK -108

My money is on the Titans to cash in a win and cover as a pick'em on the road against Wyoming. Detroit has started out 0-2, but that was to be expected, as they opened the season with road games at NC State and Clemson. While they did fail to cover in either game, they were able to keep both somewhat respectable. Wyoming is just not a good team and have already lost twice at home, including a 7-point loss to CS-Fullerton as a 3-point favorite. BET DETROIT PK!

20* WARRIORS/GRIZZLIES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Grizzlies -4½ -110

My money is on Memphis to cash in a win and cover at home against the Warriors. Golden State's season just can't get any worse. Having already lost their two best players in Curry and Thompson, they now must find a way to make things work without D'Angelo Russell. Memphis might seem like a team they can compete against, but the Grizzlies are playing well with 3 wins in their last 4. BET MEMPHIS -4.5! 

20* E MICHIGAN/N ILLINOIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois -4 -107

My money is on Northern Illinois to cash in a win and cover at home against the Eagles. Northern Illinois is a better team than their 4-6 record would lead you to believe. Huskies have simply been dealt a brutal schedule with 7 of their first 10 games on the road, three against Power 5 opponents in non-conference play. Last time out they won 31-28 at Toledo and really should have no problem putting away an Eagles team that is down this year. Always a good idea to take the Huskies off a big upset win in MAC play, as they are 15-2 ATS last 17 off an upset win over a conference rival. BET NORTHERN ILLINOIS -4! 

20* CHIEFS/CHARGERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Chiefs -4 -110

My money is on the Chiefs to cash in a win over the Chargers in Mexico. I think now is the ideal time to buy low on Kansas City. This line is basically saying that the Chiefs would only be about a pick'em on a neutral field. I don't think that's legit at all. LA just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace with Mahomes and that explosive KC offense. BET THE CHIEFS -4! 

20* SIU EDWARDSVILLE/S DAKOTA CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on SIU-Edwardsville vs South Dakota under 144 -109

My money is on the UNDER 144 in Monday's college hoops matchup between SIU-Edwardsville and South Dakota. I just think the total here is too high. I get South Dakota is averaging 81.5 ppg, but Edwardsville is only scoring 63.5 ppg and a mere 58.5 ppg on the road. I have this one handicapped closer to 135. BET THE UNDER 144! 

20* CAVS/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks -1½ -110

My money is on the Knicks to cash in a win at home against the Cavs. I know New York isn't great, but this is too good a price to pass up with them at home against a Cleveland team that has lost 3 straight and playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back after hosting the 76ers on Sunday. BET THE KNICKS -1.5! 

20* DUCKS/CAPITALS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Capitals -200

My money is on Washington to cash in an easy win at home against the Ducks. Capitals have won 8 of their last 10 overall, while Anaheim has dropped 5 of their last 6. When Washington is hot, it's a good idea to jump on board, as they are 9-2 in their last 11 after winning 4/5 of their last 6. BET THE CAPITALS -200! 

20* SABRES/BLACKHAWKS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Sabres +125

My money is on the Sabres to cash in a win as a road dog against the Blackhawks. Buffalo just snapped a 6-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over Ottawa and I like them to carry over that momentum to this one. Chicago comes in having won 3 straight, the most recent a 7-2 victory at Nashville, but they are just 4-15 in their last 19 at home off a road win. BET THE SABRES +125

20* CARDINALS/49ERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals vs 49ers under 44½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 44.5 in Sunday's NFC West matchup between the 49ers and Cardinals. A lot of people might be thinking the OVER given these two just played a few weeks ago and saw a combined 51 points in a 28-25 49ers win at Arizona. Thing is that was played on Thursday Night Football, so both defenses were at a big disadvantage on just 3 days rest. 49ers defense should be much better this time around and the offense figures to struggle some with George Kittle sidelined. BET THE UNDER 44.5

15* SETON HALL/ST LOUIS CBB SHARP WINNER on St. Louis +7½ -111

My money is on the Billikens to cash in a cover here as a near double-digit home dog at Seton Hall Sunday. St Louis has started out 3-0 SU and 3-0 ATS, all 3 wins coming by double-digits. There's no denying the Pirates are a really good team, but this is a big letdown spot on the road just 3 days after hosting and losing a heartbreaker at home against Michigan State. BET ST LOUIS +7.5! 

20* CELTICS/KINGS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Celtics vs Kings under 217 -110

My money is on the UNDER 217 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Kings hosting the Celtics. Sacramento has been a UNDER team early, as it's cashed in 7 of their first 11 games. Better defensive play is a big part of that. In their last 5 games they are only giving up 104.6 ppg. Boston is a strong defensive team as well. Celtics are only giving up 102.8 ppg on the road. UNDER is 7-1 in the Kings last 8 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their road games. BET THE UNDER 217! 

20* UCF/ILLINOIS ST CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Illinois State -1 -110

My money is on the Redbirds to cash in a win and cover at home against the Knights. Illinois State has started out 2-0 with a big home win under their belt over Belmont, where they won 79-72 as a 5.5-point dog. Redbirds are 26-13 ATS last 39 as a home favorite of 3 or less. BET ILLINOIS STATE -1! 

15* WYOMING/UTAH ST CFB SHARP WINNER on Wyoming vs Utah State over 50 -104

My money is on the OVER 50 in Saturday's Mountain West matchup that has Wyoming visiting Utah State. The Aggies finally let Jordan Love do his thing in their last two games and he's delivered big time. He threw for 394 against BYU and 388 last week at Fresno. They need his offense cause their defense is awful, giving up 31 or more in 3 straight and 4 of their last 5. BET THE OVER 50! 

15* VA TECH/GA TECH CFB SHARP WINNER on Virginia Tech vs Georgia Tech under 51 -110

My money is on the UNDER 51 in Saturday's ACC matchup that has Georgia Tech hosting Virginia Tech. I just don't see the Yellow Jackets scoring much here. Georgia Tech is a very run heavy offense and the Hokies run defense has been exceptional of late. Virginia Tech is also running the ball a lot more moving to a mobile quarterback. UNDER is 26-13 in the Yellow Jackets last 39 as a home dog and a dominant 35-17-1 in the Hokies last 53 games in November. BET THE UNDER 51! 

20* TCU/TEXAS TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on TCU vs Texas Tech under 56½ -112

My money is on the UNDER 56.5 in Saturday's Big 12 matchup that has Texas Tech hosting TCU. The books just keep missing the mark when these two teams play. In 2017 they combined for 30 with a total of 54. Last year they only combined for 31 with a total of 57.5. UNDER is also 9-1 in TCU's last 10 as a road favorite. BET THE UNDER 56.5! 

15* FLORIDA/MISSOURI CFB SHARP WINNER on Florida vs Missouri over 50½ -112

My money is on the OVER 50.5 in Saturday's SEC matchup that has Missouri hosting Florida. Most are going to look at the fact that Missouri has scored a total of 21 points in their last 3 games and facing a Florida defense that just shutout Vanderbilt last week. Kelly Bryant and wide out Larry Rountree are back healthy and I look for the Tigers to be much better at home. Each of the last 3 in the series have seen at least 54 and I think they could get to 60 this time around. BET THE OVER 50.5! 

15* WISCONSIN/NEBRASKA CFB SHARP WINNER on Wisconsin vs Nebraska under 51½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 51.5 in Saturday's Big Ten matchup that has Nebraska hosting Wisconsin. UNDER is always a smart play when the Badgers are involved. While they went OVER in their last game against IOwa, that game had a total of 37.5 and they only hit 46. Each of the previous 5 games for Wisconsin all went UNDER. UNDER is also 5-1 in Nebraska's last 6 home games. BET THE UNDER 51.5! 

15* MINNESOTA/UTAH CBB SHARP WINNER on Minnesota +4 -110

My money is on the Gophers to cash in a win and cover at Utah in Friday's college hoops action. I just think it's a good spot to buy low on Minnesota, who has started out 1-2, but unlike some other teams that just play cupcakes early, two of their games were against Oklahoma and Butler and they were dogs in both, so the record isn't all that surprising. They really couldn't have shot any worse in both those losses and yet they lost both by single digits. I like them to win outright, but will take the points as insurance. BET THE GOPHERS +4! 

20* NBA JAZZ/GRIZZLIES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jazz -6½ -110

My money is on the Jazz to cash in an easy win and cover at Memphis Friday night. Grizzlies come in off back-to-back wins and covers as a road dog against the Spurs and Hornets, but neither of those teams are playing well and I feel it has them way overvalued against one of the best teams in the Western Conference. Utah has won 4 straight and 6 of 8 overall and should only get better as the season progresses. BET THE JAZZ -6.5! 

20* PENGUINS/DEVILS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Penguins -125

My money is on the Penguins to cash in a win at New Jersey Friday. Pittsburgh is without their best player in Sidney Crosby, but they don't need him to beat a team like the Devils. New Jersey is just 5-12 overall with a miserable 2-7 mark at home. Devils just can't score right now. They have managed 2 or fewer goals in 5 straight games. BET THE PENGUINS -125! 

20* LOUISIANA TECH/MARSHALL CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Louisiana Tech vs Marshall over 54½ -109

My money is on the OVER 54.5 in Friday's C-USA matchup with Louisiana Tech and Marshall. Most will be looking to take the UNDER with the news that the Bulldogs won't have their starting QB or top wide out, but I still think LA Tech is going to find a way to score. They still have an electric back in Justin Henderson, who has scored 14 touchdowns and is averaging 6.5 yards/carry. Bulldogs have scored 40 or more in 4 straight and seen a combined score of 63 or more in all 4. BET THE OVER 54.5! 

20* NCAAB - W VIRGINIA/PITT CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh PK -108

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a win at home against the Mountaineers. Great value with Pitt at a pick'em in this one. Panthers may still have a ways to go to be taken seriously in the ACC, but they should be greatly improved from last year's team that went just 14-19 overall and 3-13 in conference play, especially at home. West Virginia is also a very young team that is relying on a lot of freshmen and sophomores and it's always tough on inexperienced teams in their first true road game of the season. BET THE PANTHERS! 

20* SHARKS/DUCKS NHL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ducks -102

My money is on the Ducks to cash in a win at home in Thursday's matchup against the Sharks. THis is just too good a price to pass up on Anaheim. While San Jose comes in having won 4 straight, all 4 wins were at home. Sharks are just 2-7 on the road, where they are scoring a mere 2.2 goals/game. BET THE DUCKS -102! 

20* MICH ST/SETON HALL CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Michigan State vs Seton Hall under 143½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 143.5 in Thursday's college hoops matchup between Michigan State and Seton Hall. Spartans put up 100 in their last game, but only saw a combined 131 points in their opener against Kentucky. While Michigan State fell to the Wildcats, their defense held Kentucky to just 38% from the field. I look for their defense to dominate against a Seton Hall offense that won't have it's star player in Myles Powell. This is also a pretty good Pirates defensive team. BET THE UNDER 143.5! 

20* STEELERS/BROWNS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Steelers vs Browns over 40 -110

My money is on the OVER 40 in Thursday's NFL action that has the Browns hosting the Steelers. Most will look to take the UNDER here, as this looks like a matchup of two bad offensive teams against two solid defensive teams. Thing is, these Thursday games are a lot harder on the defenses and are almost always see more points than expected. Really doesn't take a lot to get to 41 points. BET THE OVER 40! 

20* BULLS/BUCKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -11 -110

My money is on Milwaukee to cash in a win and cover at home against the Bulls on Thursday. Chicago is coming off a win and cover, but that was at home against an awful Knicks team. Bulls have been a major disappointment this season and just don't have the talent to keep it close against an elite team like Milwaukee. BET THE BUCKS -11! 

20* N CAROLINA/PITT CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on North Carolina vs Pittsburgh under 50½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 50.5 in Thursday's ACC matchup that has Pittsburgh hosting the Tar Heels. I expect this to be a defensive struggle. Not only are these two solid defensive teams, but they each will have had 11 days to prepare for the opposition. Pitt is only giving up 20.1 ppg and UNC has held 6 of their 9 opponents to 25 or less. They should add the Panthers to that list, as Pitt only averages 20.9 ppg. BET THE UNDER 50.5! 

20* RAPTORS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Raptors +4½ -110

My money is on the Raptors to cash in a cover at Portland Wednesday night. I get the Blazers made it to the Western Conference Finals last year, but that was a fluke and it's showed early on. Portland has lost 5 of 6 and are in a horrible rest spot playing in the 2nd game of a back-to-back after last night's upset loss to the Kings, who were missing Fox. BET THE RAPTORS +4.5! 

20* INDIANA ST/LOUISVILLE CBB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Indiana State vs Louisville over 147 -105

My money is on the OVER 147 in Wednesday's college hoops action that has Indiana State visiting No. 4 Louisville. The Sycamores gave up 86 on the road in their opener against Dayton and I wouldn't be shocked at all if the Cardinals put up 90+ in this one. Key here is that Indiana State can score. They had 81 and shot 47% from the field vs the Flyers. BET THE OVER 147! 

20* N ILLINOIS/TOLEDO CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois vs Toledo under 53½ -117

My money is on the UNDER 53.5 in Wednesday's MAC showdown between Toledo and Northern Illinois. The Huskies are not a very good offensive team. They only managed 10-points last time out at Central Michigan. Toledo may not have their starting QB and leading rusher and these two almost always seem to play closely contested low-scoring games. UNDER is a dominant 11-4 in the last 15 in the series. BET THE UNDER 53.5!
