NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Michigan Wolverines

A huge matchup in the Big Ten Conference for both teams. The Wolverines started out scoring hot winning their first seven games in dominating fashion then went through a significant amount of adversity and now have responded with five consecutive wins and covered in all five games. They were ranked No. 4 in the country in the December 2 AP poll and were not ranked in the January 20th poll. After four weeks of not appearing in the Top-25, they earned the 19th ranked slot in this week’s poll.

Teams that have won four out five ATS and are ranked, but were not ranked the previous week and installed as a conference favorite are 21-14-2 ATS for 60% and more important for Michigan is that those teams have gone 32-5 SU winning the games by an average of 10 points.

Here is a situational betting system that supports the Wolverines in this matchup and has earned a 75-38-2 ATS for 65% ATS winners last five seasons and has an excellent ‘p’ value. Send me a direct message @JohnRyanSports1 if you are interested in learning what and how the ‘p value is used in combinatorial algorithms. Make bets on home favorites of 3 to 9.5 points that are coming off an upset win over a conference foe and in a game involving both teams with win percentages between 60 and 80% on the season.

From the predictive side things, the following historical precedents match the overall summarized projections produced by the machine learning tools. Michigan is 53-0 SU and 34-7-1 ATS covering by an average of 9 points in home games in which they held their opponent to less than 40% shooting and they made 25 or more field goals in games played since 2007.

The requirements are to bet on teams in game lined within 3 points on either side of pick and have allowed 80 points in each of their last two games and facing an opponent that has played four consecutive games where they and the opponent did not score more than 70 points.

The Matadors are a vastly better ball-handling team and rank 55th in the country with a 1.155 assist-to-turnover ratio while LBST ranks 344th with a terrible 0.653 ATR ratio.

From the predictive side of things, the Matadors are 20-8 ATS for 71.4% wins when they have forced an opponent into 15 or more turnovers and had the better, more efficient, assist-to-turnover ratio.

7:00 PM EST, 02-26-20
NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Furman Paladins

Huge matchup in the Southern Conference tonight when the Furman Paladins travel to take on the UNC-Greensboro Spartans. The Paladins are 13-3 in conference play and trail conference-leading East Tennessee State Buccaneers by one-game. The Spartans are tied in the conference standings with the Paladins in a three-team race down the stretch to win the regular season conference championship.

ICYMI: Paladins refers to the knights of Charlemagne's Court who were men of courage and daring, persons of "outstanding worth or quality who are firm in support of some cause or objective. Not bad for a sports team.

The Spartans have been scorching hot winning their last six games and 11 of their last 12 games. However, they have shot poorly in the last three games making just 37% of their shots in a 67-55 win at Mercer and 36.4% shooting in their last game where they defeated VMI 71-68 and failed to cover the spread as 9.5 point road favorites.

The Paladins have been equally as hot winning seven of their last eight games with the loss occurring on the road against conference-leading E-Tenn-State.

Here is a situational betting system that supports the Paladins in this matchup and has earned a solid 52-25-1 against-the-spread (ATS) record for 67% wins since 2006 and 24-9-1 ATS for 73% wins since 2015.  So, the requirements are to play on road underdogs including ‘pick’ that are revenging a home loss and with the opponent coming off two close wins of five or fewer points against conference rivals.

From the predictive side things, the following historical precedents match the overall summarized projections produced by the machine learning tools. Furman is 27-17 ATS for 61.4 wins in games in which they took between 54 and 62 shots; 7-3 ATS for 70% when they have allowed 64 to 74 points in games played over the last three seasons; 22-6 ATS for 79% winning bets in road games in which they had the better, more efficient, assist-to-turnover ratio.

Milwaukee vs Toronto

7:35 PM EST, February 24, 2020
7-Star Best Bet on the Toronto Raptors

Last season, the Bucks won 60 games and 3 of the four games against the Raptors, but lost to the Raptors in the Eastern Conference Final and then watched them move to win the World Championship. There has been one game between the two teams so far this season with the Bucks winning 115-105 at home on November 2.

The Raptors have won 17 of their past 18 games and the Bucks have won 17 of their last 19 games. The Bucks though are playing their third game in four days and that is a huge disadvantage for them as visitors tonight.

The Raptors are 39-22-1 ATS for 64%, which is the best record in the NBA, when playing against good passing teams that are averaging 23 or more assists-per-game in games played over the past two seasons. They are also a solid 25-13 ATS for 65.8% winners. Which is also best in the NBA, playing against teams that average 23 or more APG and are making 46% or more of their field goal attempts in games played over the last two seasons.

Toronto is also coming off their largest margin of victory in franchise history (46) with their drubbing of the Indiana Pacers 127-81 this past Sunday. This puts them into an excellent betting system that has earned a solid 36-17 ATS mark good for 68% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to bet on home teams that are lined within three points on either side of ‘pick’ and are coming off a game in which they allowed 85 or fewer points. If we add the tightener to return games from the database that had lines within two points of ‘pick’ the record increases to 20-7 for 74% winning bets.

Dayton vs George Mason

7:00 PM EST 2-25-20
NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the George Mason Patriots

Let us start with a supporting power-query betting system that has earned an outstanding 85-31-3 ATS record for 72% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to bet on underdogs between 10 and 19.5 points that have gone ‘under’ the posted total by a combined18 or more points over their last three games and is facing an opponent that has gone ‘UNDER’ the total by a combined 36 or more points in their last five contests. If the game is in the A-10 conference the record has earned an 8-4 ATS record for 67% wins. 

The Patriots are a solid 25-12 ATS when facing elite shooting teams making at least 48% of their shots on the season. Dayton is just 6-18 ATS after a game where they made 78% of their free throws or better over the last three seasons; 11-22 ATS after three straight games forcing opponent to commit 14 or less turnovers over the last three seasons.

Patriots are a terrific 10-2 ATS after two straight games where they attempted 12 or free throws

7:00 PM EST, 02-25-20
NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Iowa Hawkeyes 

This is a matchup that has been dominated by the Michigan State Spartans, who have won four consecutive games and 13 of the last 15 dating back to the 2011 season. That translates into an 11-2 straight-up (SU) mark and 9-4 against-the-spread (ATS) in favor of the Spartans. The last time the Hawkeyes defeated the Spartans was a road victory in East Lansing by the final score of 76-59 and with the Hawkeyes covering the spread by 26 points as a 9-point underdog.

This will mark the third game that both teams were ranked in the Top-25 AP poll and the last two games were both won and covered by the Spartans. In the first meeting this season the Spartans defeated Iowa on the road 82-67 and covered the spread as 5-point favorites and the score stayed ‘UNDER’ the posted total of 156 points. Prior to that game, the Spartans defeated the Hawkeyes at home 90-68 and covered the spread as 11-point favorites on December 3, 2018.

Note that when ranked teams are playing each other in conference matchups and the team that is ranked higher (better) in the polls is an underdog of at least 7.5 points they have sported a terrible 12-48 SU mark for 20%, but have earned a solid 37-23 ATS record for 38% winning tickets since 2006.

Adding on this data theme, the Spartans are coming off a big 86-65 dominating win over Nebraska and shot51.6% from the field. So, take the aforementioned string of parameters and add the favored team, Spartans, coming off a game in which they shot better than 50% form the field and they turn into a money-burning 5-13 ATS for just 28% winning bets.

Now, Iowa has won back-to-back games and shot 56% from the field in their demolition of Ohio State by an 85-76 final score. If we take the aforementioned parameters and substitute the opponent, Iowa, shooting over 50% in their last game, the result is that the favored team goes 1-6 ATS.

It gets worse for Michigan State too. I’ll summarize the parameters that we have been working on to make sure the final team-specific trend is crystal clear for all of us. Favorites of at least 7.5 points that are playing an opponent that is ranked higher than them in the most recent AP poll and the opponent is coming off a win are an imperfect 0-12 ATS and failing to cover the spread by an average of 14.6 points.

So, I think I will be on Iowa tonight. I also recommend splitting this wager into two parts consisting of 80% of your 7-Star betting amount placed using the line and the remaining 20% placed using the money line.

The money line is priced at about +300 and with the 80/20 rule in place serves to optimize the total rate of return for this betting opportunity.  For example if you bet $100-per-star then 80% of $700 is $560, which is placed on the line and then 20% of $700 is $140 using the +300 money line. So, if Iowa loses by less than eight points you win the ATS wager, but lose the money line wager for a net gain of $420. If Michigan wins by nine or more points, you will lose both bets and a total of $700 just as you would have betting all $700 on the line. If Iowa does pull off the upset, you win the ATS wager of $560 and win the money line wager of $420 (3*$140) for a grand total of $980.

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Lehigh Mountain Hawks

This situational betting system has earned a solid 47-16 ATS mark good for 75% winning bets over the last five seasons. The betting query instructs us to be on any team that is in a game with a line within three points on either side of pick-em and is revenging a road loss of 10 or more points and is also coming off a closely contested loss by three or fewer points. 

So the team being bet on, is lined as no more than a 3-point favorite or no more than a three-point underdog. 

Back on January 18 Lehigh traveled to Bucknell (within about an hour of Penn State) and were dealt a 72-56 loss and failed to cover the spread as 5.5 point road dogs. Lehigh is also coming off a 70-67 loss at Colgate, but easily covered the spread as 13-point underdogs. The Colgate Raiders are leading the Patriots Conference with a 12-3 record so, for Lehigh to nearly pull off the huge upset is a confidence builder and it will spill over into this game as well. 

From the predictive side of things, the Bison are just 1-9 ATS in road games in which they attempted 55 to 65 shots this season. Lehigh is 22-10 ATS in games in which they have made 47 to 53% of their shot attempts. 

Penn State vs Indiana

12:00 PM EST, February 23, 2020
7-Star Best Bet on the Penn State Nittany Lions

The No. 9 Lions (10-5 conference) are in second place in the 14-team Big Ten Conference and trail conference-leading and No. 7 Maryland by two games and have a ½-game lead over both No. 20 Iowa and Michigan State. The Lions are coming off a tough home loss to a desperate Illinois team, who now sits in fifth place and one-game behind the Lions and three-games behind the Terrapins.

The Hoosiers are 7-8 SU in conference are tied for ninth place with No. 25 Ohio State, which reflects once again how incredibly deep and talented the Big Ten Conference is this season. 

The Lions are 18-5 ATS in road games when facing defensive teams that are forcing 14 or fewer turnovers-per-game after 15 or more games over the last three seasons. The Lions are 13-4 ATS against teams committing 14 or fewer turnovers-per-game this season. Not to mention a sparkling 11-1 ATS after four straight games forcing opponent to commit 14 or fewer turnovers in games played over the last three seasons.

Philadelphia vs Milwaukee

8:35 PM EST, February 22, 2020
10-Star Best Bet on the Philadelphia 76ers

This is a matchup that may very well be a precursor to the Eastern Conference Finals. The 76ers have the best home record in the NBA and Milwaukee is right behind them. The 76ers have lost just two games at home, but have lost 19 of 28 road games this season. The additions of Robinson III and Burks is already paying dividends and adding significant depth top the bench. 

There has been talk about if Embiid can coexist with Simmons, which I say is nonsense. Yes, they may not like each other personally, but there have been many dynamic duos that have not shared beers or broke bread together, but still won Championships in every professional sport. 

I do think Simmons will have a monster game tonight. He is rested and did not play in the 76ers win over the Nets, which saw the 76ers climb to a 16-point lead in the first quarter and then were outscored 44-10 and trailed by 20 points in the second quarter. Simmons is one of the bnest defensive players in the NBA and his presence on the court is going to slow down the Milwaukee Bucks scoring machine. 

The Bucks are 25-42 for 36% coming off a game in which they had 10 fewer turnovers than the opponent including 12-27 for 30% when the game is at home. 

From the predictive side of things and why I do believe it is quite possible for the 76ers to win this game, the 76ers re 26-3-1 ATS for 90% winning bets in road games when the have had the better assist-to-turnover ratio and held their opponent to 107 or fewer points in games played since 2015.

As an alternative wager, consider a combination bet using 80% of your 10-Star bet size on the line and then 20% on the money line. 

Florida vs Kentucky

NBA 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Indiana Pacers minus the points

The Indiana Pacers will play seven of its next nine games on the road and had dropped six in a row before topping Milwaukee 118-111 in their last game before the break. The Pacers had many encouraging signs in the win over the NBA-best Bucks from several players.

The Pacers have been trying to get back on track since former All-Star Victor Oladipo returned from surgery to repair a ruptured quad tendon on Jan. 29. Oladipo turned in his most efficient performance with 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting. Point guard Malcolm Brogdon handed out 13 ‘dimes’ and spread the ball extremely well I the half-court sets.

The Knicks were riding a four-game winning streak before dropping two straight heading into the break and are still dealing with the fallout after a rumor by a front office marketing executive stated in an interview that the coaching staff was on the way out. The team brass, though, denied that Allegation, but the damage had been done. New York is playing for the future (whatever that means to them) amnd they will put the younger players on task for more minutes down the stretch – a modified form of tanking

The Pacers are 30-15 ATS when facing defensive teams that are allowing 46% or worse opponent shooting in game splayed in the second half of each of the last three seasons.

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Philadelphia 76ers

This is the final game of the head-to-head series between the Nets and 76ers with the 76ers winning tow of the first three games. The 76ers laid an egg in December, but have won the last two in this series in convincing fashion and both of those wins without their star power forward Joel Embiid.

Embiid will be in the lineup and may find it a bit more difficult to score given the presence of Nets DeAndre Jordan, who is always near the top of the league defensively. Still, his presence will open up things on the perimeter for his teammates to bang away at 3’s.

The 76ers are 14-5 ATS as a home favorite having covered the spread in two of their last three games and are coming off a game in which they forced only nine turnovers and facing an opponent that has won eight or more of their last 10 games ATS and with the opponent having a lower win percentage than the 76ers.

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Mississippi State Bulldogs

Both South Carolina and Mississippi State have their work cut out for them to get the attention of the NCAA selection committee and to earn one of the coveted double-byes in the SEC conference Tournament. I believe the Bulldogs will take a large stride toward achieving both goals with a dominating win tonight in Starkville, Mississippi.

After starting the conference portion of the season with three consecutive losses the Bulldogs have clawed their way back to sixth place and trail conference-leading Kentucky by 2.5 games and are only 1-game behind second-place Auburn in a log jam of six teams. They are coming off a come-from-behind win over Arkansas by a final count of 78-77 and covered the spread as a 2.5-point road underdog.

The following situational betting query has earned a terrific 73-36-2 against-the-spread (ATS) record and 67.2% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to home favorites of 3 to 9.5 points that are coming off an upset win over a conference foe and in a game involving both teams with win percentages between 60 and 80% on the season.

The Bulldogs are an excellent rebounding team and rank second in the conference in allowed offensive rebounds. In defending their glass well they limit an opponents’ second chance scoring opportunities. Not good news for SC as they are an imperfect 0-7 ATS when facing a dominant rebounding team that is outrebounding opponents by 7 or more per game over the last three seasons.

From the predictive side of things, the Bulldogs are 14-4 SU and 9-3-1 ATS for 75% winners when they have played a game making between 31 and 37% of their 3-point attempts and attempted between 54 and 62 shots. The Bulldogs are 14-0 SU and 8-1 ATS for 89% winning tickets when they have had 40 or more rebounds and made between 31 and 37% of their 3-point shot attempts.

Villanova vs DePaul

Villanova is just 6-13 ATS after playing a game as favorite this season. DePaul is 12-5 ATS for 71% winning bets when playing in home games and on a 3-game or more ATS losing streak.

From the predictive side of things, the Deacons are 13-4 ATS for 77% winning bets when they have shot higher percentage than the opponent and made at least 30% of their three-point shot attempts. This does have upset alert written all over it and as surprising as it may appear for Villanova to lose in the momth of February it just might happen.

Butler vs Seton Hall

Baylor vs Oklahoma

9:00 PM EST, February 18, 2020
10-Star Best Bet on the Oklahoma Sooners

Here is where the Baylor Bears run into trouble against a Sooners team in need of a resume building win. First of all Baylor is 0-12 ATS coming off a double-digit home win and had fewer than 10 points from the charity stripe in games played since 2007.

The Sooners boast three of the league's top 11 scorers and an 11-1 record at home this season. They are coming off a disappointing 87-70 loss at third-ranked Kansas over the weekend, but we all saw how good Kansas is playing right now in their extremely easy win over Iowa State last night. The Sooners gave Baylor all it could handle in the first meeting on Jan. 20 before settling for a 61-57 loss in Waco. 

The Sooners Kristian Doolittle is averaging15.5 points and a team-high 9.1 rebounds and has produced three of his seven 20-point efforts over the last three games after going off for 27 versus the Jayhawks and was named the Big 12 Player of the Week for the third time this season on Monday. Brady Manek is averaging a team-high 15.6 points and 6.3 rebounds entered Saturday as the top 3-point shooter in the Big 12. Austin Reaves is averaging 14.1 points and 5.0 rebounds and has been unable to reach his season scoring average and/or make 40 percent of his field-goal attempts in six of his last eight games, which is a stretch that began with a 3-for-17, eight-point effort at Baylor last month. The Sooners are ready and have the talent to get the upset win.

From the predictive side of things, the Sooners are 30-6 SU and 22-10 ATS when they made 77% or more of their free throw while the opponent made less than 70%, and with the Sooners making at least 35% of the 3-point shots, including 5-0 ATS as a home dog.

The Merrimack Warriors are on top of the Northeast Conference with a 12-2 straight-up (SU) record, but will have their hands full the Bryant Bulldogs tonight.

The Warriors Are winners of 11 of their last 12 games and are on a current two-game win streak. Bryant has lost five of their last seven games and are looking to end a current two-game losing streak. Further, they have covered the spread in just two of their last 12 games and have a current streak of three consecutive ATS losses. This is a text book contrarian play in which there will be at least three times more bets on the Warriors as compared to the Bulldogs – yet the Bulldogs are the slight favorite.

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Nittany Lions

Now, the Penn State Nittany Lions are getting their respect from the pollsters coming in as the No. 9 team in the country. They will be on full alert tonight not to have a letdown after their huge run of late. Coach Chambers has done a miraculous job keeping his team in the present-minded and not getting ahead of themselves and focused on bettering themselves each week.

The program that once struggled to fill the lower bowl of Bryce Jordan Center for home games is now selling out the 15,261-seat building. Linebacker U. might not be Ball Reversal U. just yet, but Happy Valley is learning the joys of making the extra pass and rotating perfectly on defense.

"We're trying to do something special, something that Penn State hasn't seen before," Penn State coach Patrick Chambers said. "We've been talking about moments since the beginning of the season, and here's another moment for us."

They have won 20 games and are the fastest to win 20 games in school history. An experienced core of seniors in Lamar Stevens and Mike Watkins, mixed with fundamentally sound role players like Myreon Jones and Jamari Wheeler, has helped Penn State play consistently well on both ends of the court.

This situational betting query has earned an outstanding 34-11 ATS record for 75% winning tickets opver the last five seasons. The requirements are to pay on home favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points that have a win percentage of 80% and higher and have covered the spread by at least 48 points in their ;last seven games and facing an opponent with a winning record. If this game is taking place after the 15th game of the regular season the record zooms to 22-5 ATS for 82% winning bets.

From the predictive side of things, the Lions are 23-8-1 ATS for 74% winning bets when they have had the better, more efficient, assist-to-turnover ratio and made at least 28 field goals in games played since 2006; 13-3 ATS and 17-2 SU winning the games by an average of 21 points over the last three seasons; 8-1 ATS for 89% this season.

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Jayhawks

Kansas is getting into full gear and looking to chase down the Baylor Bears, who they play this Saturday. First things first, though, and Kansas is not a team that is going to get caught looking ahead to this revenge showdown. The line is heavy chalk, but for good reasons. So far the public is on Iowa State as the line may look extremely high for this conference matchup.

Kansas throttled the Oklahoma Sooners 87-70 and covered the spread as 11-point home chalk. Kansas is 22-5 ATS for 83% winning bets when playing their third game in a week since 2006.

From the predictive side of things., Kansas is 47-21-1 ATS in games in which they shot between 49 and 54% form the field and shot 40% or better from beyond the arc; 32-12 ATS if theses games saw the Jayhawks score 81 or more points.

Monmouth vs Niagara

1:00 PM EST February 16, 2020

NCAAM 7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Monmouth Hawks

The Hawks trail the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference-leading Saint Peter’s Peacocks by just ½ game and know a win is imperative over the Fairfield Stags, who sit in ninth place of the 11-team conference standings. The Hawks are 15-6 ATS when playing against a bad team that has won 20% to 40% of their games in each of the last two seasons. They are 9-2 ATS when facing a below average rebounding team averaging only 33 or fewer boards-per-game in games played after the 15th one in each of the last two seasons.

Seton Hall vs Providence
8:00 PM EST
NCAAM 7-Star Best bet on the Providence Friars

This is an upset alert type of game, but given the skinny line there is no real advantage to use the money line. So., simply play a 7-Star amount on the Providence Friars getting 1.5-points. I am currently seeing pick-em at the Bookmaker sportsbook and I do believe the line could move to pick-em by game-time. The line that your book has will be close to the lines I a seeing across the board. They are all the same and rarely do you see a 1.5 difference between the major Vegas books and the offshore ones.

The Pirates are 2-12 ATS after allowing 80 points or more over the last three seasons; 1-8 ATS after playing a game where both teams score 80 points or more over the last three seasons. Pirates head coach Willard is just 4-15 ATS after playing a game where both teams score 80 points or more.

From the predictive side of things, Providence is 31-7-1 ATS in home games when they have shot 43% or better from the field, had fewer turnovers than the opponent, and had fewer than 12 turnovers; 6-1 as a home dog!

Wisconsin vs Nebraska

Yale vs Princeton

NCAA Basketball 10-Star on the Princeton Tigers

The Jadwin Gymnasium in Princeton, NJ will be packed and rocking tonight to support the Tigers in their quest to upset the Yale Bulldogs and take over the first place in the Ivy League. The Bulldogs and Tigers are tied for first with 5-1 straight-up records (SU) and one of them will leave the gym in first place.

The top-4 teams in the Ancient-Eight Conference make it the Tournament and the loser will remain one of the four teams to play in Philadelphia. Good news for the Harvard Crimson, who were the trendy pick in the preseason to win the League and get the auto-bid to the Tournament.

Since 2006, the Bulldogs hold a 16-12 SU edge and have earned a 14-12-2 against-the-spread (ATS) record. The ‘UNDER’ has a modest edge sporting a 15-13 record. The Tigers have lost four straight games to the Bulldogs. The Bulldogs most recently defeated the Tigers 83-77 in last season’s Ivy League Tournament on Saturday, March 16, in new Haven Connecticut. The Tigers did manage to cover the spread as 10.5-point underdogs.

The Tigers have faced games with quadruple revenge and are 7-3 SU, 6-4 ATS, and the ‘UNDER’ has earned a solid 7-2 mark in these games. Seven of theses games were at home and the Tigers are 6-1 SU winning the game by an average of 8 points, 5-2 ATS covering the spread by an average of 6.8 points and the ‘UNDER’ is 4-2.

From the predictive side of things, the ‘Machine’ projects that Princeton will make at least 72% of their free throws and score at least 70 points in this game and when they have done so in past games they have achieved a remarkable 77-16 SU record and 50-22-2 ATS mark for 68% winning bets since 2006; 34-6 SU and 27-11-2 ATS in conference games; 4-4 SU, but 7-1 ATS and 7-1 ‘OVER’ as a conference underdog.

7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Oklahoma Sooners

Senior Oklahoma Sooner forward Kristian Doolittle broke out of a recent slump with 27 points including 12 rebounds in Saturday's 69-59 big win over No. 14 West Virginia. The Sooners will not overlook Iowa State tonight given that a huge showdown for them is scheduled Saturday against the Kansas Jayhawks. The momentum gained with the win over the Mountaineers will carry them through this matchup and I expect the Sooners to play extraordinarily well.

Junior forward Brady Manek was the only other Sooner to score in double figures Saturday, finishing with 11 points to leave his team-leading average at 15.8. Doolittle comes next at 14.7 per contest and leads the squad in rebounding at 9.1 - 10.7 over his last six games.

Furman vs Samford
7:30 PM EST, February 12, 2012
NCAAM 7-Star Basketball Best Bet on the Samford.

First, my plays are released throughout the day and there will be more releases forthcoming in the NCAA and NBA hardwood, and NHL.

Furman is tied for first-place with the East Tennessee State Buccaneers in the Southern Conference while Samford has struggled this season to a 2-10 SU conference record and 8-18 SU overall season record. This is the time of th season where we can get excellent pricing for the ‘ugly dog’ playing the elite conference-leading or contending teams.

The line has dropped from an opening price of Furman favored by 12-points to 11.5 despite seeing 61% of the best made going on Furman. This is a sign that there has been some ‘smart money’ going on the Bulldogs.

This situational betting query has earned a solid 36-16 ATS record good for 78% winners since 2006. The requirements of the query are to bet on home underdogs of 10 to 19.5 points after failing to cover the spread in two or more consecutive games and is a struggling team that has won 20 to 40% of their games on the season and is now facing a team with a winning record.  The SU record is just 3-50 so do not expect the shocking upset in this one. Do expect a much closer game than is expected.

NCAAM 7-Star Basketball Best Bet on the Missouri Tigers

The requirements are to bet on underdogs of 10 or more points, which is Missouri, after being beaten by the spread by 18 or more points total in their last three games against opponent after going over the total by more than 12 points in two consecutive games.

If the underdog has failed to cover the spread in seven of their last eight games and queried with the aforementioned situations the ‘UNDER’ has produced a solid 27-13-2 record for 68% winning bets.

I recommend playing this pair of 7-star Titans as two separate bets with the normal amount you bet on a 7-Star play. I then recommend to play NO MORE than a 3-Star amount on a Reverse Parlay (pays 4:1) combining the Missouri Titers plus the points and the ‘UNDER’.

Here is a situational betting system that supports the play on the Pacers and has earned a 51-22 ATS mark good for 70% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to bet on home favorites between 3.5 and 9.5 points that have failed to cover the spread in three of their last four games and are now facing an opponent after having covered the spread in four of their last five games.

Chicago vs Philadelphia
6:00 PM EST, February 8, 2012
NCAAM 7-Star Basketball Best Bet on the Philadelphia 76ers

The 76ers showed the NBA world that they can be an elite and dominating team with their pasting of the Memphis Grizzlies Friday on back-to-back nights. Now they face a team that has struggled this year and knowing they are playing the top home team in the NBA, who has had just two losses on the season.

From the predictive side of things, the following precedents match the projections for this game. The 76ers are a solid 42-25 ATS in games in which they made 48 to 51% of their shot attempts and 36-14 ATS when they have forced 13 to 17 turnovers in game splayed over the last three season. When they have met both performance measures they have earned a 46-18-1 ATS record including 32-12-1 ATS as a home favorite and 10-1 ATS as a home favorite of seven or more points.

2:00 PM EST, February 9, 2020

7-Star Best bet Titan on the Rider Broncs

From the predictive side of things, Rider is projected to shoot between 48 and 52% from the field and have at least 10 more rebounds than Niagara. In past games, in which the Broncs met or exceeded these performance measures they have earned an outstanding 12-3 against-the-spread (ATS) mark for 80% winning bets. The Broncs are 38-4 SU and 25-11 ATS in home games in which they sot between 48 and 52% from the field.

Niagara is an imperfect 0-13 SU losing the games by an average of 17 points and 0-12-1 ATS losing to the spread by an average of 10.2 points when they have allowed an opponent to shoot between 48 and 52% from the field and were outrebounded by 10 or more boards.

Gonzaga vs St. Mary’s 

10:00 PM EST, February 8, 2020

NCAAM 7-Star Upset Alert Titan on the St. Mary’s Gaels

This is a huge game, needless to say. The Upset alert is almost always a combination wager comprised of 80% of your 7-Star amount bet on the line and 20% bet on the money line, which for this matchup is priced at +200.  Making these plays consistently over the course of the seasons does add a significant amount to the return-on-investment (ROI)

Gonzaga has been a scoring machine and have played in a weak conference. However, the Gaels do have the defense to control the tempo and keep Gonzaga well under wraps. The Bulldogs are an imperfect 0-6 ATS after scoring 80 or more points in five consecutive games this season. 

The Gaels are a solid 22-9-1 ATS after two consecutive games with nine or fewer offensive rebounds over the last two seasons. Bulldogs head coach Few is 4-13 ATS in road games after scoring 80 points or more in five consecutive games. 

From the predictive side fo things, the Gaels are an incredible 40-3 SU and 28-7-1 ATS for 80% winning bets since 2007 when the have made 80% or more of their free throw shots, made 10 or more three-point shots. 

Vermont vs Harford
7:00 PM EST, February 8, 2020
10-Star Best bet on the Hartford Hawks in American East Conference action.

Here is a situational betting system that has earned an outstanding 56-14 ATS record for 80% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to be on an underdog of 10 to 20 points that has gone ‘UNDER’ the total by 24 or mor epoints in total over their last three games and is now facing an opponent after going ‘UNDER’ the total by at least 35 points in total spanning their last five games.

 The Hawks have been a resilient team under head coach Gallagher and are 15-5 ATS after one or more consecutive losses over the last two seasons.  Gallagher is also 30-13 ATS when facing good ball handling teams committing 14 or fewer turnovers-per-game.

 From the predictive side of things, the projections call for the Hawks to shoot at least 42% form the field, make at least nine 3-point shots, and make more 3-point shots than Vermont.

 A win by the Hawks puts them right in the thick of things for the AEC conference Championship. To earn the win will require them to pay extraordinarily well, but I do expect the final score to be 5 or fewer points.

Eastern Kentucky vs SIU-Edwardsville
4:30 PM EST, February 8, 2020
7-Star Best bet on SIU-Edwardsville

 Let us start with a situational betting system that ahs hit 67% ATS winners over the last 20 seasons.

From the predictive side of things, UVA is a solid 15-6 ATS when they attempt 54 to 62 shots in a game over the last two seasons; 20-9 ATS in road games when they attempt 13 or less free throws in a game over the last three seasons; 18-3 ATS in road games when they have had the better, more efficient, assists-to-turnover ratio in road games since 2017.

Philadelphia 76ers vs Milwaukee Bucks

8:00 PM EST, February 6, 2020
NBA 7-Star Upset Alert on the 76ers.

I recommend a combination wager on this game with 85% of a normal bet size on a 7-Star being made using the line and then the remaining 15% placed on the money line. Over the course of a season this type of wager has contributed significantly to the total profits made for the season. This is a valid game even if the 76ers are two players short on the bench tonight due to the trades.

The trade made by the 76ers is a Grade A+ that will pay big dividends down the stretch and has the potential to get the 76ers to the Eastern Conference Finals. The missing piece has been a few sharp shooters from beyond the arc that an opposing defense must respect. Now, they have two more to add to the player rotation.

This situational betting system has earned a solid 95-50 ASTS record good for 66% winners since 1995 and instructs us to play on road underdogs coming off an embarassing 20point or more loss and is now facing an opponent that is coming off two consecutive games in which 215 or more points were scored in each game.

From the machine learning prognosticating tools the 76ers are an awesome 52-5-2 ATS for 91% winning bets when they have shot at least 47% from the field, had the better, more efficient, assists-to-turnover ratio, and made at least 78% of their free throws.

Central Florida vs East Carolina
7:00 PM EST, Wednesday, February 6, 2020
7-Star Best bet Titan on Central Florida

ECU is on a two-game skid losing 76-64 at Temple in their previous game. The CFU Knights have lost three consecutive games after scoring a season-low in a 64-48 horror show against local rival South Florida University. The Knights couldn’t hit sand if they fell off a camel form beyond the arc going 2-for-22. They have lived and died by the ‘three’ going 5-1 straight-up (SU) and 5-1 against-the-spread (ATS) when they have made eight or more 3-point shots and just 6-9 SU and 4-10 ATS in games they made less than eight this season.

ECU head coach Dooley is a solid Dooley is 13-2 ATS in home games after a game giving up five or fewer offensive rebounds in all games he has coached. One of the keys to any win is limiting an opponent to a minimum number of second-chance scoring opportunities. I believe you will see this from the Pirates tonight and that will be a m,ain reason they can win this game.

Froj the predictive side of things (the machine .earning tools), defensive rebounding will a key factor. ECU is 11-1 ATS when they have gotten between 40 and 44 rebounds in games played over the last two seasons. Since 2015, ECU is 16-0 SU and 12-2 ATS when getting 40 or more rebounds.

William & Mary vs Charleston
7:00 PM EST, Thursday, February 6, 2020
NCAA Basketball 7- Star Upset Alert on William & Mary Tribe. I recommend making a combination bet consisting of 80% of your average bet size on the line and 20% on the money line,

With six games remaining on the regular season, the William & Mary Tribe, the Charleston Cougars, and Hofstra Pride are tied for the Colonial Athletic Association lead. Only one team will get the invite to the Dance by winning the Association Championship, but whoever that team is will have earned it. This is a conference that I enjoy following because the games are highly competitive and many exciting moments at the end of the games – especially when you have money bet on the game.

So, this is a huge game for both teams and those that are in the chase. Five of the 10 teams in the CAA are within 1.5-games of the conference lead.

Head Coach Dane Fischer has built a balanced team on both sides of the ball. They rank 158th of the 353 Division-1 basketball programs in the country in scoring offense averaging 72 points-per-game and 163rd in scoring defense allowing 68.7 points-per-game. Their defense has stepped up in conference games where they rank 4th-best allowing 68.6 points-per-game. The offense ranks 7th scoring an average of 70.3 points-per-game.

The Tribe are coming off a 4-game home stand in which they went 2-2 straight-up (SU) and 1-3 against-the-spread and have lost three consecutive games to the spread. They played their worst game of the season losing 83-60 to the Hofstra Pride as 2-point home favorites and shot a miserable 37% from the field. I completely expect the Tribe to get off the mat and play on eof their best games of the season tonight.

Senior forward Nathan Knight is the Tribe. He is an awesome player that has NBA talent. He is averaging team-highs in scoring averaging a double-double with 20.3 points-per-game and 10.6 rebounds-per-game. When he exceeds these averages the Tribe win games and when he does not, they will be more likely to lose games. However, more players are stepping up for the Tribe and another reason the Tribe can win this game. Senior forward Andy Van Vliet is contributing an increasing amount over the last several games and averages 13.7 points-per-game and 8.6 rebounds-per-game. Look for sophomore Thorton Scott, who averages a team-high 4.5 assists-per-game, to have a big game tonight.

The following team trends match the projections from the machine learning tools for the outcome of the game.  Tribe is 13-5 ATS when they attempt 54 to 62 shots in games played this season; 17-6 ATS when their opponents make 40% to 46% of their shots in a game over the last three seasons; 22-11 ATS when they make 79% or more of their free throws in a game over the last three seasons.

Denver vs Utah

10:05 PM EST, Wednesday, February 5, 2020

7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Utah Jazz

The trades that involved the Nuggets will have negative effect on the team given the lack of depth coming off of their bench. This is not the only reason for the bet, of ocurse.

The Jazz are 23-10 ATS in home games facing foul drawing teams attempting 24 or fewer free throws-per-game over the last two seasons.

This situational query supports the bet on the Jazz and has earned a solid 47-17-1 ATS record over the last five sesons and requires us to be on favorites of 3 to 10 points that have a winning record on the season and is playing another winning record team that has beaten the spread by at least 24 points in their last three games.

From the predictive side things, the Jazz are 98-25-4 ATS for 79% when scoring 115 or more points in a home game since 1995. 31-6-1 ATS for 84% over the last three seasons.

No. 17 Iowa vs Purdue
7:00 PM EST, February 5, 2020

7-Star Best Bet on the Purdue Boilermakers

The Hawkeyes have won six of their last seven games, including a 72-65 victory over 21st-ranked Illinois on Sunday, to move into a second-place tie in the Big Ten conference standings. Purdue is need of a win as they are tied in 8th place with four other teams in the 14-member Big Ten Conference. The good news is that as many as 11 Big Ten teams could get invites to the NCAAM Tournament. A win over a ranked team would give Purdue another signature win for their Tournament resume.

Boilermaker head coach Fran McCaffery told reports “I think this is one that we kind of needed to have…. I think we just have to build off this and make sure we improve every single day in practice.”  So, that implies that he is communicating this to his team and emphasizing the need to execute each possession at a high level and only one possession at a time.

Purdue is 18-5 in the month of February since 2016 and that trend will continue again this February.

From the predictive side and hat the machine learning tools are projecting is the fact that Purdue is 29-2 SU and 22-8-1 ATS in home conference games in which they shot 46% or better from the field and had 10 to 1`4 turnovers.

Maine vs Vermont
7:00 PM EST, Wednesday, February 5, 2020
7-Star Best bet Titan on Maine

The Maine Black Bears will travel to take the Vermont Catamounts in an American East conference matchup. The Catamounts are 17-6 SU and 7-1 SU in conference games putting them in first place with a one-game lead over both the Hartford Hawks and the Stoneybrook Seawolves. The Bears are tied for last in the coferfence standings with a 6-16 SU overall record and a 2-6 SU conference mark. Sol there is disparity between the tow teams basketball abilities, but not enough to warrant a 20+ point spread.

Supporting this bet is a situational query that has earned a 63-35-1 ATS mark good for 64% winning bets since 2015. The requirement are to play on a road underdog of at least 12.5 points and in game that features a low total of not higher than 126 points.

Maine is a terrific 7-2 ATS as an underdog of 12.5 or more points and a game total line of not higher than 130 points.

Clemson vs Virginia

7:00 PM ESR, February 5, 2020

7-Star Titan on the Virginia Cavaliers

Here are a few quick hitters supporting UVA.

Clemson is 5-15 ATS when facing a defensive team that is forcing opponents to commit an average of 14 or fewer turnovers-per-game in games played over the last two seasons. UVA is 14-4 ATS coming off a home win over a conference rival spanning the last three seasons.  Bennett is 44-25 ATS off a home win against a conference rival as the coach of UVA.

From the predictive side of things, UVA is 76-16-1 ATS for 83% when making at least 40% of their three-point shot attempts and allowing less than 60 points.

Missouri vs Texas A&M

9:00 PM EST, February 4, 2020
7-Star Best Bet Titan on the Missouri Tigers

Here is a situational betting system that has earned an outstanding 54-22-2 ATS record good for 71% winning bets over the last 5 seasons. The requirements are to be on any team after the 15th game of the season that is a game with a betting line within three points of pick-em and in a game involving two teams that average at least 20 three-point shot attempts per game and with the one team shooting under 40% overall in three consecutive games.

 Aggies have not done well when facing sa team that loves to launch 3-pointers like the Tigers. In fact, they are 0-8 ATS when facing a team that has struggled overall from the field shooting 42% or lower on the season.

 From the predictive side of things, the Tigers are 18-6 ATS when they have held their opponent to 34 to 39.9% shooting in games played over the last three seasons; 7-1 ATS when they have allowed 60 or fewer points in a game this season.

Milwaukee Bucks vs New Orleans Pelicans
7:35 PM EST, February 4, 2020

10-Star Best Bet on the Milwaukee Bucks

This situational NBA betting query has earned a consistent 171-96-5 ATS record good for 65% winners since 1995.

Play on road favorites of 3 to 10 points that have a win percentage of 64% and higher after game number 16, is outscoring their opponents by an average of at least 3 points-per-game and have scored 104 or more points in 3 consecutive games, and have less than two days rest from their previous game.

If the game number is after the 41st game or in other words being played in the second-half of the regular season the record jumps to 107-53-5 ATS for 67% winning bets since 1995.

 From the predictive side of things and what the machine learning tools are projecting the Bucks are 19-5 ATS for 79% winning bets as a road favorite and when they have shot over 50% from the field and hit between 37 and 42% of their 3-point shot attempts.

Ohio State vs Michigan
7:00 PM EST, February 4, 2020
7-Star Best Bet on the Ohio State Buckeyes

Here are a few quick hitters that reinforce the grading produced by the machine learning tools.

OSU is 9-1 ATS after allowing 60 or fewer points this season; 7-0 ATS after allowing 60 or fewer points in back-to-back games; 6-0 SATS after allowing 65 or fewer points in three consecutive games this season.

From the predictive side of the game, OSU is 28-6 ATS for 82.4% winning bets when they have scored 75 or more points, made at least 11 3-point shots, and shot 40% from beyond the arc in games played since 2007.

The Volunteers are a polar opposite of the Crimson Tide. They rank 298th in the country in scoring offense averaging 66.5 points-per-game but rank 19th in scoring defense allowing 61.2 points-per-game on the season. They rank 45th in the nation overall based on my power ratings.

Despite scoring a below-average number of points-per-game, the Volunteers have five players averaging double-digits. This balanced attack is going to be a big problem for the Crimson Tide’s porous defense. Senior guard Jordan Bowden is averaging a team-high 12.6 points-per-game, junior forward John Fulkerson is averaging 11.6 points-per-game, senior guard Lamonte Turner is averaging 12.3 points-per-game and a team-high 7.1 assists-per-game, junior guard Yves Pons is averaging 11.1 points-per-game. And freshman guard Santiago Vescovi is averaging 10.3 points-per-game.

The Volunteers will control the pace of the game with their defense and not allow the Crimson Tide to make the game a run-and-gun shootout.

Chicago vs Toronto
3:00 PM EST, Sunday, February 2, 2020
Toronto, Ontario

7-Star Titan on the Raptors

Let us face facts. Toronto is a monumentally better team than the Bulls. Raptors rank 13th in scoring offense averaging 12.3 PPG as compared to the Bulls, who rank 26th and average 106 PPG. In scoring defense the Raptors rank 4th allowing 106 PPG while the Bulls rank 12th allowing 108.3 PPG. Raptors rank 10th with an assist-to-turnover ratoio of 1.765 as compared tot eh Bulls, who rank 24th with a 1.513 assist-to-turnover ratio. The Bulls are a terrible rebounding team ranking 30th and averaging 50.1 boards-per-game.

Bulls are just 10-23 ATS when competing against up-tempo teams averaging 88 or more shots-per-game - 2nd half of the season over the last two seasons; 12-25 ATS when going up against a solid offensive team averaging at least 106 points-per-game and with the game occurring in the second half of the regular season.

From the predictive side of things and provided by the machine learning work horse, the Bulls will score between 100 and 105 points. The Bulls are 8-16-2 ATS when they have scored between 100 and 105 points in games played over the last two seasons. The Raptors are 18-5 ATS when they have allowed an opponent to score between 100 and 105 points over the last two seasons.

Utah vs UCLA

3:00 PM EST, February, 2, 2020

7-Star NCAAM Best Bet on the UCLA Bruins

Coach Mick Cronin’s first UCLA team appears to be gelling at an opportune time, winning three of its last four games to climb in the Pac-12 standings. The Bruins will try to continue that surge Sunday afternoon when they host Utah in this PAC-12 matchup.

UCLA’s most-recent win was its most impressive of the season, building a 39-27 halftime lead at home and never trailing thereafter in beating No. 21 Colorado 72-68 on Thursday night. Junior guard Chris Smith scored a career-high 30 points as the Bruins finished 25-of-29 at the free-throw line and outrebounded what was the conference’s top team on the glass by a 39-29 margin.

Utah is 0-7 ATS after a loss of 6 or fewer points in games played over the last three seasons. UCLA is a near-perfect 8-1 ATS in home games off a win against a conference rival over the last 3 seasons.

This si a trap type of game for the Crimson Tide. Razorbacks head coach Musselman is 17-6 ATS off a loss against a conference rival in all games he has coached. He is also 22-9 ATS after one or more consecutive losses in all games he has coached.

From the predictive side of things, the Razorbacks are 8-2 ATS when they commit three to seven fewer turnovers than their opponent does in games played this season and 6-0 ATS when they have scored 75 or more points along with the 3 to 7 fewer turnovers.

Second-ranked Gonzaga aims to register its 15th consecutive victory when it visits San Francisco on Saturday in West Coast Conference play. The Bulldogs have won a record 35 straight WCC regular-season games after notching an 87-72 road win over Santa Clara on Thursday night.

Gonzaga is expected to be without Killian Tilli, sprained his left ankle in the win over Santa Clara. He has missed six games this season due to knee and ankle injuries. When he has he has four 20-point performances over his last seven games. The Dons have won five of last six games, including Thursday's 69-44 rout of host San Diego. This is the best position they have been in to challenge the Gaels and playing at home makes all the more intense for them.

Junior guard Charles Minlend averages a team-high 15 points-per-game and scored 21 points and season-highs of 10 rebounds and four blocked shots in the win over San Diego. Prior to this game he was struggling averaging 7.5 points on 7-of-24 shooting over the previous two games. Minlend has been the most consistent player for the Dons and in my view is the team leader. He has scored 15 or more points in 14 games this season and the showing against the San Diego marked his third time he has reached 20 or more points this season.

Here is a situational betting system that ahs earned a terrific 35-10 ATS record good for 79% winning bets over the last five seasons. The requirements are to bet on underdgos of 10 or more points, who are coming off a game in which they allowed 33% or less shooting and are now facing an opponent that has been scorching hot from beyond the arc making at least 47% in three consecutive games.

I suggest playing this dog as combination wager using 80% of your bet on the line and 20% on the money line.

ePaul vs Marquette
2:00 PM EST, Saturday, February 1, 2020

NCAAM 7-Star Titan on the Marquette Golden Eagles

The requirements are to bet on a home favorite between 3.5 and 9.5 points that is off a win over a conference foe as an underdog and with both teasm in the matchup sporting win percentages between 60 and 80% on the season.

From the predictive side of things, Marquette is 18-9 ATS when they have scored 77 or more points and more than 45% of the points came from beyond the arc. DePaul is 3-13 ATS when they have allowed 77 or more points and 45% or more fo them came from beyond the arc.

The following situational betting system has earned a 102-51-5 against-the-spread record good for 67% winning bets over the last 20 seasons.

A few buzzer beater team trends point out that the Pistons are an imperfect 0-7 ATS when facing teams forcing opponents into an average of at least 16 turnovers-per-game; 5-17 ATS facing solid teams that are outscoring their opponents by an average of at least 6 points-per-game in games played over the last two seasons. Pistons are a miserable 14-29 ATS after failing to cover four of their last five against the spread in games played over the last three seasons.

The Clippers are just 3-15 ATS after two consecutive ATS wins installed as a favorite in games played over the last two seasons; 23-46 ATS following a game in which they committed 10 or more turnovers than the opponent spanning the last 20 seasons. 

Eastern Illinois vs Murray State

NVAAM 7-Star Titan on the Eastern Illinois Panthers

Murray State is just 19-44 ATS when hosting a game after having won the previous four games; 8-25 ATS when hosting a game after seven or more consecutive wins; 4-16 ATS in home games after nine or more consecutive wins. So I think you get the [point. The Panthers head coach Spoonhour is 20-10 ATS for 67% when coming off a home win. 

The following situational betting system has earned a 37-10-2 against-the-spread record good for 79% winning bets over the last five seasons.

A few buzzer beater team trends point out that the Raptors have been a money burning 14-28 ATS after covering the spread in three of their last four games in games played over the last two seasons. 

Houston vs Portland

NBA 7-Star Titan on the Portland Trailblazers

Here is a situational betting system that has earned a solid 54-26 ATS record good for 68% winners spanning the last five seasons. The query instructs us to bet on all teams in games lined within 3-points of pick-em and is facing an opponent that is outscoring their opponents by at least 3 points-per-game and with both of the teams scoring at keast 100 or more points in each of their last four games.

The No 1 Baylor Bears will try to go 7-0 in conference action for the first tie, since 1958 in what was the Southwest Conference. They also will look to extend their 16-game win streak, but the Iowa State Cyclones have an entirely different goal in mind.

Is Baylor a Team that Can Stay at No 1?
The Bears are 17-1 straight-up (SU), 12-6 against-the-spread (ATS), and the ‘Under’ bet is 10-8 on the season. In true road games they are 4-0 SU, 4-0 ATS, and the total is an even at 2-2. They have played four neutral site games in which they have compiled a 4-1 SU and ATS record with the only loss occurring at the hands of the Washington Huskies in the second game of the season November 8, 2019.

The Bears have played remarkable defense under head coach Scott Drew and rank 5th out of the 353 Division-1 programs in the country in scoring defense allowing just 58.6 points-per-game on the season. They have played the 50th most difficult schedule and rank 8th overall in my proprietary power rankings.

The Bears have four players averaging 10 or more points-per-game in a balanced attack. They are led in scoring by sophomore guard Jared Butler, who is averaging 15.8 points-per-game including 2.8 rebounds-per-game, and 3.1 assists-per-game. Their top rebounder is senior Freddie Gillespie, who is averaging 9.8 rebounds-per-game.

This is the Game of the Year for the Cyclones unless they catch fire down the stretch and improve on their 9-10 SU and 2-4 conference record. A win over No1 Baylor would go a long way to achieving that goal. The Cyclones have played the 27th most difficult schedule and rank 52nd in my power rankings. So, despite the 9-10 SU record they are a good team fully capable of pulling off the upset win.

The Cyclones have two incredibly good sophomore guards, who both average a team-high 16 points-per-game. Tyrese Haliburton leads the offense and in addition to his scoring he also averages a team-high 7.1 assist-per-game. This is a duo that will create matchup problems for the Bears. If they are double teamed both are excellent at finding the open unguarded teammate that will then get drives to the rim for high percentage shots.

From the predictive side of things, the Cyclones are 29-12 ATS for 71% in games in which they scored 70 or more points, had no more than 14 turnovers, made 78% of their free throws and made at least seven 3-point shots; 17-7 ATS for 71% winning bets in home games.

Indiana vs Penn State
8:30 PM EST, January 29, 2020
7-Star Bet on the Penn State Nittany Lions

The PSU Nittany Lions became ranked for the first time in 14 years back in December, then fell out of them, and were re-ranked again after stron back-to-back wins over Ohio State and Michigan. Another win tonight would start to solidify their invite to the Big Dance too.

PSU’s  Lamar Stevens scored 19 points and nine rebounds to finish in double figures for the 19th consecutive game in the Lions first win in Ann Arbor since Feb. 20, 2010.

Here is a situational betting system that has earned a money-making 65-31-1 ATS mark over the last five seasons. The system instructs us to play on home favorites of 3 to 9.5 points that are coming off an upset win over a conference foe and in game involving both teams with win percentages between 60 and 80% on the season.

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights will look to remain undefeated in home games when they take on the Purdue Boilermakers tonight. They had to scratch and claw their way to their 14th consecutive home win in their defeat of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The Knights puked a 14-point lead early in the second half and trailed by six points with less than three minutes remaining in the game. Once again, their conference-leading scoring defense clamped down and did not allow a point the remainder of the game while the Knights scored the final nine points to earn the win.

The opponent tonight is second in the Big-Ten in scoring defense and they are going to put up a much bigger test than Nebraska provided. Purdie’s head coach Matt Painter called his team out prior to their dominating win over the Wisconsin Badgers in which they outrebounded them 42-16 and had a massive 19-2 advantage in second chance points. I belevie the Boilermakers will play another overwhelming game and leave Piscataway, NJ with the outright win.

From the predictive side of things, the Knights are 34-80 ATS in games in which they have shot under 30% form beyond the arc; 26-52 ATS when they have made 65 to 70% of their free throw shots.

Purdue is 37-5 SU (88%) and winning the game by an average of 22.2 points in games in which they held the opponent to less than 30% shooting and had 40 or more rebounds and had more rebounds than the opponent; 35-4 SU since 2010; 6-2 SUATS when on the road.

Villanova vs St. Johns
7:00 PM EST, January 28, 2020
7-Star Bet on the Villanova Wildcats

Wildcats legendary head coach Jay Wright has a Final-4 potential and his teams always begin to peak at this time of the season. The Wildcats are 14-1 straight-up (SU) and 10-5 against-the-spread (ATS) over the last two seasons. Coach Wright will not have to think long for motivational material tonight as his Wildcats blew a 17-point first-half lead and were shocked by the Red Storm 71-65, which marked the first home win against the Wildcats for the Red Storm in 17 seasons.

·        The Wildcats are 22-11 ATS when facing winning teams that are outscoring their opponents by four or more points-per-game after 15 or games have been played over the last three seasons.

·        The Wildcats are 33-15 ATS after having won eight or more of their last 10 games spanning the last three seasons.

·        The Wildcats are 13-3 ATS coming off a road win spanning the last three seasons.

No. 3 Kansas vs Oklahoma State

NCAAM Basketball: 7-Star Oklahoma State

The Big-12 Conference ranks as second strongest in my rankings as a conference and have four teams in the Top-25 of the polls with several more teams capable of adding themselves to the list of ranked teams. One of these teams is in a difficult road matchup in which it will take a well-played game for them to leave with the win.

The Kansas Jayhawks will look to add to their current four-game win streak and chase down the Baylor Bears, who are atop the Big-12 Conference standings at 6-0. The Jayhawks last loss was to the Bears, who will have to stumble for the Jayhawks to win the Conference regular season title.

The Cowboys are coming off a 73-62 win at College Station and the Texas A&M Aggies that ended a 6-game conference losing streak. Their defense played well allowing the Aggies just 30% shooting from the field and they must bring that defensive mindset to this matchup if the have any intensions of defeating the Jayhawks.

There are many team-specific trends that support the Cowboys and an upset bid.

·        The Jayhawks are 6-15 ATS after having won 12 of their last 15 games in games played over the last three seasons.

·        Under Bill Self, the Jayhawks are just 34-43 ATS after playing four consecutive games in which they had 14 or fewer turnovers in each game.

·        The Cowboys are 16-10 against the money line making $1,200 per $100 wager in home games after having lost four of their last five games.

NCAAB Upset Alert: The Oklahoma State Cowboys +7 (-110) that is offered at the Heritage Sportsbook. I recommend making a combination bet consisting of 85% of your average bet size on the line and 15% on the money line.

I will get right to the team-specific trends and betting systems that support and reinforce the projections from the machine learning toolbox.

This situational power-query has 48-18 ATS record for 73% winning bets over the last 20 seasons. The requirements are to bet on underdogs that have failed to cover the spread in 12 or more of their last 15 games and are facing a team that has covered four or five of their last six games against the spread.

From the predictive side of things, the Nets are 85-9-2 ATS for 90% winning bets when they have scored 115 or more points and had the better assist-to-turnover ratio.

San Diego State vs UNLV

NCAAM 7-Star Upset Alert on the UNLV Rebels

For the season the Rebels have earned an 11-10 SU mark, 11-10 ATS, and the ‘OVER’ is 11-10. In MWC action the Rebels are a solid 6-2 SU, 5-3 ATS, and the ‘OVER’ has recorded a 5-2 winning record. As a host the Rebels are 9-4 SU, 8-5 ATS, and the ‘UNDER’ is 7-6 for the season.

In their last game, the Rebels lost to the Nevada Wolfpack 86-72 as a 4-point road underdog Wednesday. They shot just 36% from the field and their defense forced only six Wolfpack turnovers.

The Rebels have a balanced scoring attack led by four players averaging at least 11 points-per-game. Their scoring leader is junior guard Amauri Hardy, who is averaging 15.1 points-per-game. Sophomore guard Bryce Hamilton is second on the team in scoring averaging 13.5 points-per-game and was ranked as the 95th best High School player in the country last year. He has been the sixth man coming off the bench and has played well in that role averaging 27 minutes-per-game, shooting 51% on 2-point shots and 31% on three-point shots.

In their loss at Nevada Hamilton had a team-high 26 points on 10-for-23 shooting and in the second to last game against New Mexico he had a team and career-high 35 points on 14-for-19 shooting. He and Hardy must have their best on the court if they are to take down the Aztecs.

This situational betting system has earned an outstanding 63-28 ATS record for 69% winning NCAAM picks over the last five seasons. The system requires us to bet on home underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points, who have a win percentage between 51 and 60% on the season and is now facing an elite team winning 80% or more of their games on the season and are coming off a home win over a conference rival.

Rebels head coach Otzelberger is 14-2 ATS in home games and facing an elite shooting team that is making at least 47% of their shots and with the game taking place in the second half of the season (after Game 15). I do believe that the Rebels can hang around long enough to have a chance at the end to get the headliner upset win today.

NCAAM 7-Star Upset Alert on the Illinois Fighting Illini

The pressure of being a head coach in a Big Five Conference is weighing more and more on the broad shoulders of Michigan head coach Juwan Howard. He is not on the hot seat and is given the benefit of the doubt as having been a member of the legendary Michigan Fab-5 team and having had a solid NBA career. However, his team has lost four of their last five games and the last three straight-up (SU) and against-the spread (ATS).

The Michigan defense has been the problem as they have allowed 48% or higher shooting four of the last five opponents. Only their 84-78 win over Purdue - the only one of the last five – they did hold the Boilermakers to 41% shooting. Problem there is that it was Purdue missing wide open shots especially in the paint area.

The Wolverine offense has been a steady meltdown over the last stretch of games. In their shocking loss to Penn State (We had Penn State in this matchup) they shot a horrid 35% from the field while Penn State was able to light it up from beyond the arc and also in the paint areas to shoot 48% form the field.

Coach Howard appears to be stubborn in focusing on defending the perimeter and 3-point shooters, which they have done well. However, this stretches his defense and allows opposing big men to get the fall in open space against one defender.

In this matchup. Illinois likes to get a high-percentage shot as close to the rim as possible. They rank 316th of the 353 Division-1 programs in the country attempting an average of 17.5 3-point-shots-per-game. The Illini rank 69th making 52% of their 2-point shot attempts. So, it is still a pick your poison situation for the Wolverines. If they pack the paint, Illinois will adjust and look for shots near the 3-point shot line and not necessarily beyond it if the Wolverines pack the paint in a zone defense.

Even though the Illini have struggled from beyond the arc, they have talented shooters than can bury open shots from that range.

Illinois head coach Underwood is a perfect 8-0 ATS in road games and is coming off two consecutive wins against conference rivals.

Illinois is 58-11-3 ATS for 84% winning bets when they have made at least 45% of their shot attempts and had at least five more rebounds then the opponent in game splayed since 2006.

LA Clippers vs Miami
8:05 PM EST, January 24, 2020

Play on road teams that went under the posted total by at least 30 points an dis now facing a non-conference host that went OVER the total by at least 18 points in their last game.

From the predictive side of things, The Clippers are 19-7 ATS when they can play fast and attempt at least 88 or more shots this season; 30-14-1 ATS when their opponent has shot between 40 and 45% from the field spanning the last two seasons; 102-22-3 for 82% winners when they scored 115 or more points and had 14 or fewer turnovers in games played since 2000.
