USC.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 747.

5:00 pm pst.

A half-game behind UCLA, USC needs this victory. They outclass Utah on both sides of the court. With the Utes on a four-game SU slide and a 1-4 ATS cold streak, this matchup will be a repeat of the January 2, 64-46 shellacking. The Trojans are 10-2 ATS L12 following a SU loss, 7-1 ATS L8 as a favorite, and 12-4 ATS L16 on the road. Take USC. Thank you.

Washington.

TOP-RATED PLAY.

Game 556.

4:05 pm pst.

Washington is starting to stride. They have won and covered six of their last seven games, both SU and ATS. Beal and Westbrook (42.5 PPG and 14.9 RPG combined) will go uncontested here as Minnesota is still without Beasley and Russell. Towns can’t carry the team all by himself. The center will have his hands full dealing with the Wizards big men in this matchup. Washington has covered four of their last five in this series, including a 130-109 romp on New Years Day. The Timberwolves are 1-4 ATS L5 on the road and 0-6 ATS L6 overall. Take the Wizards. Thank you.

FAU.

BEST BET.

Game 689.

2:00 pm pst.

FAU owns one of the nations most potent offenses (79.7 PPG). USM owns of the worst (64.7 PPG). The Owls’ five starters are all either flirting with or averaging double-digits. The “not so” Golden Eagles just can’t compete here. The Favorite is 6-2 ATS L8 meetings in this series. Southern Miss is 0-4 ATS L4 at home and 1-5 ATS L6 overall. Take FAU. Thank you.

Arkansas.

EARLY WINNER.

Game 640.

11:00 am pst.

Perfect timing for this matchup as Arkansas is striding with five straight wins and covers while LSU comes off one of their poorest performances of the season. The Tigers are 3-7 ATS L10 on the road and 2-5 ATS L7 overall. The Razorbacks are 4-0 ATS L4 at home and 5-0 ATS L5 overall. Take Arkansas. Thank you.

James Madison.

CAA GOW.

Game 822.

1:00 pm pst.

The No. 1 team in the CAA, James Madison (8-1 in conference play) faces one of the league’s worst representatives in Drexel (3-5 conference record). The Dukes took the Dragons down, 73-64 for both the win and the cover on January 31. JMU is looking to lock up the CAA’s top-spot. They are red-hot, winning and covering seven straight contests. Drexel does have four double-digit scorers. But that is all they have. The team lacks the depth to contend in this matchup. The Home Team is 5-1 ATS L6 meetings in this series. The Dragons are 6-15-1 ATS L22 on the road, 4-10-1 ATS L15 as an underdog, and 2-9-1 ATS L12 vs. teams with a SU winning record. The Dukes are 6-0 ATS L6 at home, 6-0 ATS L6 as a favorite, and 4-0 ATS L4 vs. teams with a SU winning record. Take James Madison. Thank you.

New Orleans.

Consensus Play.

Game 529.

6:35 pm pst.

There is no question Milwaukee deserves all their praise. The Bucks possess the No. 2 scoring offense in basketball. However, New Orleans has some scorers too (7th, 115.2 PPG).  Furthermore, they can counter here with the No. 1 defensive rebounding corps in the NBA. The Pelicans just don’t stop there. They also rank 5th on the offensive glass, getting their second chance points as well. They are 7-3 ATS L10 in Milwaukee. Take New Orleans. Thank you.  

Ohio State.

OSU/MSU WINNER.

Game 765.

6:00 pm pst.

Don’t overthink Michigan State’s back-to-back wins and covers against Indiana and Illinois. The 4th ranked Ohio State team comes in here angry and looking for some redemption following an ugly loss to Michigan, breaking their seven-game SU win streak (6-1 ATS). The Buckeyes are too much offensively for the Spartans erratic defense. The Favorite is 11-2 ATS L13 meetings in this series. Ohio State is 6-0 ATS L6 on the road. Michigan State is 2-8 ATS L10 at home. Take the Buckeyes. Thank you.

UCLA.

Pac-12 Payday.

Game 753.

5:00 pm pst.

With UCLA one win away from sharing the Pac-12’s top-spot with USC (playing Colorado today), look for the Bruins, which bested the Utes, 72-70, December 31 (third consecutive SU win in this series) to extend their current hot streak (3-0 SU L3). Meanwhile, Utah is cold as ice, losing three in a row SU and three of their last four ATS. On both sides of the court, they are outclassed here, particularly on the boards. Take UCLA. Thank you.

New York.

TOP-RATED PLAY.

Game 524.

4:35 pm pst.

With the NBA’s top-ranked defense (103.8 PPG allowed). New York is starting to stride. Especially for bettors. The Knicks have covered seven of their last 10 outings. They come off a loss to the Warriors on Tuesday. They are money following an ATS loss, covering six of their last seven in that situation. On the flipside, Sacramento is not only losing, but crushing followers as well, riding an eight-game slide both SU and ATS. The Kings won’t be able to get any rhythm facing the Knicks stifling “D”. To make matters worse, they own the league’s worst defense, yielding over 119.9 PPG. Sacramento is 3-14 ATS L17 following a SU loss and 0-4 ATS L4 on one days rest. New York is 5-1 ATS L6 as a home favorite and 5-2 ATS L7 overall. Take the Knicks. Thank you.

Kent State.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 653.

11:00 am pst.

The 14-5 Kent State Golden Flashes possess an outstanding offense (78.9 PPG) and are monsters on the boards (11th, 37.5 “O” RPG). That doesn’t bode well for the 7-11 Ball State Cardinals team that rank 264th defensively and 305th on the “D” glass. The very healthy Kent State squad is led by three tough, strong big men in Pippen, Beck, and Hamilton (39.9 PPG and 20.6 RPG combined). They are too much for the banged-up, undersized BSU squad. The Golden Flashes are 7-2-1 ATS L10 vs. teams with a winning percentage under .400 and 4-1 ATS L5 on the road. The Cardinals are 2-7 ATS L9 vs. teams with a winning percentage over .600 and 1-6 ATS L7 overall. Take Kent State. Thank you.   

Kansas.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 643.

6:00 pm pst.

Since an early-February loss to drop them out of the top-25 for the first time in a dozen years, the Jayhawks are on a mission, winning and covering five straight. The team, is now ranked 17th and a win over No. 14, Texas will further their status up the polls. To add to their motivation, they can and will avenge their worst home loss in coach, Bill Self’s tenure in Lawrence. The Longhorns embarrassed Self and his squad, 84-59 back at the beginning of the year. This is an ideal time to do just that as Texas is having some issues, dropping five of their last eight SU and seven of those eight ATS. The Road Team is 12-2 ATS L14 meetings in this series. The Jayhawks are 15-7 ATS L22 on the road. The Longhorns are 8-21 ATS L29 at home. Take Kansas. Thank you.

USC.

HIGH ROLLER PLAY.

Game 670.

6:00 pm pst.

USC, following Saturday’s loss to Arizona, is tied with UCLA at 12-3 for the Pac-12’s top-spot. That defeat put an end to their seven-game SU win streak and their six-game ATS hot streak. Look for the more established Trojans to bounce back here and make a statement to the rest of the conference. They are a bit better offensively, defensively, and on the boards. The Favorite is 8-2 ATS L10 meetings in this series. USC is 9-2 ATS L11following a SU loss, 11-3 ATS L14 following an ATS loss, and 19-9 ATS L28 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600. Take the Trojans. Thank you.

New York.

CONSENSUS PLAY.

Game 544.

4:05 pm pst.

Playing Minnesota is just what the doctor ordered for New York to continue their playoff push. The Knicks have won five of their last eight SU en route to a 14-16 overall record. The owners of the NBA’s top-ranked defense (103.7 PPG) have been money, covering six of those last eight outings. Towns is a good ball player. However, with Russell still sidelined, the team is just 5-21 this season when the duo is not on the floor together. The Timberwolves are 1-4 ATS L5 overall. The Knicks are 4-1 ATS L5 as a home favorite. Take New York. Thank you.

Houston.

HIGH ROLLER PLAY.

Game 800.

10:00 am pst.

Houston lost their top AAC spot and are on the verge of possibly losing their No. 6 national ranking. So, look for a bounce-back here at home where they are 11-0 this season. They outclass Cincinnati on both ends of the court and on both boards. The Bearcats are 3-8 ATS L11 on the road and 16-40 ATS L56 overall. The Cougars are 4-0 ATS L4 at home and 7-2 ATS L9 overall. Take Houston. Thank you.  

Oklahoma.

BEST BET.

Game 721.

3:00 pm pst.

Oklahoma is just a half-game behind Kansas for 2nd place in the Big 12. They face an Iowa State team yet to win, much less, compete in conference action (0-12). The Sooners need every win they can get right now and will not take this game lightly. They are 4-0 ATS L4 on the road and 8-1 ATS L9 overall. The Cyclones are 2-8 ATS L10 at home and 9-23 ATS L32 as an underdog. Take Oklahoma. Thank you.

West Virginia.

HIGH ROLLER.
Game 653.

12:00 pm pst.

Both teams sit at 7-4 in conference play. But West Virginia has played better opponents in recent weeks and come in here fired-up following a 1-point OT loss to Oklahoma. Expect the stellar Mountaineers back court to control the tempo while forward, Culver (15.1 PPG/10.4 RPG) dominates in the paint. The Longhorns are 8-20 ATS L28 at home, 19-39 ATS L58 as a favorite, and 1-6 ATS L7 overall. Take West Virginia. Thank you.

Tennessee.

SEC GOW.

Game 620.

10:00 am pst.

The 19th ranked Volunteers play a struggling Wildcats team that most-likely won’t make the Big Dance. They are 0-5 vs. top-25 teams. On both sides of the court, Tennessee outclasses Kentucky. They won and covered four of the last five meetings in this series, including an 82-71 rout two weeks ago. The Wildcats are 0-5 ATS L5 vs. teams with a SU winning record, 0-4-1 ATS L5 on the road, and 3-12-2 ATS L17 overall. Take the Volunteers. Thank you.

Akron.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 861.

4:00 pm pst.

Akron (11-3) is just a half-game behind Toledo (12-3) for the MAC’s top spot. And playing Ball State is just what is needed to earn another victory here. The Zips thumped the Cardinals, 74-42 just three weeks ago. Over the last month, Akron has taken their game to another level, going 9-1 SU and 8-2 ATS. This is a healthy team, playing at full strength and led by one of the best players in the nation in Loren Christian Jackson (21.4 PPG). The Road Team is 6-2 ATS L8 meetings in this series. The Zips are 4-1 ATS L5 on the road and 4-1 ATS L5 vs. teams with a SU losing record. The Cardinals are 2-8 ATS L10 as an underdog and 2-6 ATS L8 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600. Take Akron. Thank you.

BYU.

HR.

Game 749.

5:00 pm pst.

Coming off a tough loss to national powerhouse, Gonzaga, BYU will pounce the understaffed Pacific squad here. They have manhandled the Tigers, taking five straight meetings in this series, including an eight-point victory in late-January. The Cougars outclass the Tigers at both ends of the court and will take this opportunity to flex their muscles and further their status in the conference. BYU is 6-1-1 ATS L8 on the road. Take the Cougars. Thank you.

Missouri State.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 719.

6:15 pm pst.

Missouri State is the hottest team in the conference, winning five in a row, both SU and ATS. They have taken the last two meetings vs. SIU, SU and five straight ATS. On both sides of the court, they outclass their league rival. The Bears are 22-6 ATS L28 following a SU win, 18-6-2 ATS L26 on the road, and 19-7-1 ATS L27 overall. Take Missouri State. Thank you.

Kansas.

Kansas/Kansas State WINNER.

Game 703.

5:00 pm pst.

Since Kansas dropped from the top-25 for the first time in a dozen years, they are on a mission, winning and covering three straight to earn their No. 23 ranking. Look for the Jayhawks to continue to thrive as they face a Wildcats squad riding a 12-game SU slide. A repeat of a February 2, 74-51 shellacking. KU is 10-4 ATS L14 as a road favorite and 20-8 ATS L28 vs. teams with a winning percentage of under .400. KSU is 3-11 ATS L14 at home and 2-5 ATS L7 as an underdog. Take the Jayhawks. Thank you.  

Boston.

TOP-RATED PLAY.

Game 558.

4:35 pm pst.

Boston is back on track following Tuesday’s 112-99 win and cover over Denver. They have dominated Atlanta, winning all three meetings last season and nine of the last 10 SU, going 6-4 ATS. The Hawks are ice-cold, dropping four in a row and seven of t heir last eight SU, covering just twice in those eight outings. Defensively, the Celtics will shut down the Hawks “O”. Boston is 4-1 ATS L5 at home and 7-2 ATS L9 on 0 days rest. Take the Celtics. Thank you.

Santa Clara.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 638.

6:00 pm pst.

These two teams match up very well with one another when at full strength. However, LMU is without their second leading-scorer and rebounder, Dameane Douglas. The underdog id 6-1 ATS L7 meetings in this series. The Lions are 1-4 ATS L5 overall. Take the Broncos. Thank you.

LA Lakers.

TRP.

Game 541.

5:05 pm pst.

The Lakers were shredded by the Nuggets on Sunday when Anthony Davis went down. They must bounce back here and make a statement to the NBA that they can win without their star forward. They took down the Timberwolves late-December, 127-91 without Davis on the floor. So, this is an ideal spot for them to do it again. Minnesota is 12-27 ATS L39 at home. Take Los Angeles. Thank you.

Milwaukee Bucks.

Consensus play.

Game 540.

5:05 pm pst.

A banged-up Toronto team just can’t compete with Milwaukee’s explosive offense. Nor can they contend on the boards here (Bucks 2nd offensively, 9th defensively). Milwaukee is 5-2 ATS L7 as a favorite. Take the Bucks. Thank you.

Washington State.

PAC-12 PAYDAY PLAY.

Game 848.

5:00 pm pst.

Following a loss to USC on Saturday, Washington State will get back on track here and get some in-state bragging rights against a Washington team riding a five-game SU slide, going 2-3 ATS. The Cougars have taken the last three meetings with the Huskies SU, and the last four ATS. This includes a late-January, 77-62 thumping. There’s a huge edge for Washington State here as they possess a feisty defense and are far superior on both the offensive and defensive boards. Washington runs with mostly guards and does not have the big men to compete in the paint in this matchup. They also have just one offensive threat in Quade Green. WSU has six big men to rotate and a tandem of double-digit scoring guards in Bonton and Williams (30.9 PPG, 7.3 RPG, 6.3 APG, and 3.5 SPG combined). The Huskies are 7-20 ATS L27 on the road and 10-23 ARTS L33 overall. The Cougars are 8-3 ATS L11 following a SU loss and 4-1-1 ATS L6 overall. Take Washington State. Thank you.

Michigan.

BIG TEN SHOWDOWN WINNER.

Game 793.

10:00 am pst.

The oddsmakers are putting too much emphasis on the layoff Michigan has endured. The 3rd ranked, 13-1 Wolverines are in top-game form under 2nd year coach, Juwan Howard. Wisconsin, which got spanked in the mid-January matchup, 77-54, is only 9-5 in conference play. The Badgers are at a huge disadvantage on the glass here as the Wolverines (14th offensively, 34th defensively) will once again dominate the boards (41-28 first meeting). Michigan is 7-3 ATS L10 on the road, 5-1 ATS L6 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600, and 19-7 ATS L26 overall. Take the Wolverines. Thank you.

New York.

CONSENSUS.

Game 568.

5:05 pm pst.

New York leads the NBA in just about every major defensive category. This doesn’t bode well for Houston, which is struggling badly on offense. The Rockets are on a four-game lose and no cover slide. While the Knicks have covered four of the last five, winning three of those SU. Houston is 1-4 ATRS L5 vs. NY and 7-21 ATS L28 on one days rest. Take the Knicks. Thank you.

Arkansas.

SEC GOM.

Game 683.

1:00 pm pst.

Revenge is a dish best served cold. Missouri bested Arkansas at the beginning of January. Both teams are playing well. But the Razorbacks are playing better. They account for over 82.7 PPG (12th) and own one of the nations best offensive rebounding corps. The underdog is 13-6 ATS L19 meetings in this series. Take Arkansas. Thank you.

Phoenix.

TRP.

Game 564.

12:05 pm pst.

Phoenix and their 4th ranked “D” can and will neutralize the Philly “O”. The Suns are red-hot, winning and covering four in a row and seven of their last eight. Not only will they slow down the 76ers offense, but they also match up well on the boards here. Philadelphia is 2-5 ATS L7 meetings in this series and 14-35-3 ATS L52 on the road. Phoenix is 5-0 ATS L5 at home and 23-9 ATS L32 overall. Take the Suns. Thank you.

James Madison.

Game 644.

11:00 am pst.

The Dukes outclass the Pride both offensively and defensively. They are riding five-game SU and ATS win streaks. They match up well with Hofstra. JMU is 4-0 ATS L4 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600, 4-0 ATS L4 at home, and 19-6-1 ATS L26 in the third game of a 3-in-5 days situation. Take the Dukes. Thank you.

Portland.

CONSENSUS.

Game 562.

7:05 pm pst.

Portland, the 6th highest-scoring team in the NBA (114.7 PPG) has too much firepower for Cleveland’s 29th ranked offense (103.6 PPG). The Blazers are starting to stride, winning four of the last five SU and ATS (6-2 ATS L8 overall) while the Cavs are on five-game SU and eight-game ATS slides. Cleveland is 0-6 ATS L6 games played in Portland. Take Portland. Thank you.

Arizona. PP.

Game 84.

6:05 pm pst.

Arizona has taken the last three meetings with t. Louis this month and nine of the last 12 overall. The Coyotes are 4-1 L5 vs. the West. The Blues are 0-4 L4 on Friday. Take Arizona. Thank you.

Charlotte.

TRP.

Game 542.

4:05 pm pst.

On both sides of the court, Charlotte outclasses Minnesota. Karl-Anthony Towns is back for the T-Wolves. But the rusty center (one month layoff) must face one of the toughest big men in the league in Gordon hayward. The Hornets are 14-6-2 ATS L22 on one days rest, 5-1 ATS L6 following an ATS loss, and 4-1-1 ATS L6 at home. Take Charlotte. Thank you.

Iona.

HR.

Game 846.

2:00 pm pst.

The red-hot Gaels are on a three-game SU and ATS win streak. They outclass the Jaspers, scoring a whopping 9.0 more PPG. Manhattan has no offense whatsoever to compete here. The favorite is 13-3 ATS L16 meetings in this series. The Jaspers are 4-11 ATS L15 on the road. The Gaels are 5-0-1 ATS L6 on Friday. Take Iona. Thank you.

Utah.

CONTRARIAN.

Game 713.

3:00 pm pst.

After a rocky start, Utah is back on track, winning four of their last six both SU and ATS. Granted Cal took a mid-January meeting but these are two very different teams right now. The Golden Bears aren’t so golden, losing six in a row SU. They are getting massacred on the boards and are once again at a huge disadvantage here on the glass. Take Utah. Thank you.

Georgia.

ODDSMAKERS MISTAKE PLAY.

Game 675.

5:00 pm pst.

Both teams are running hot. But I feel oddsmakers are giving the UT defense too much credit here. While they are very good, the Vols offense leaves a lot to be desired. Georgia matches up well here. They took the last meeting and an overall seven of the last 10 in this series SU, going 7-3 ATS. The Bulldogs are 13-6 ATS LK19 as an underdog. The Volunteers are 2-5 ATS L7 at home. Take Georgia. Thank you.

Wichita State.

AAC GOW.

Game 653.

4:00 pm pst.

At 7-2 in league play and 11-4 overall. Wichita State is striding. The Shockers have won their last three outings. Central Florida, on the other hand, has dropped eight of their last 10 SU, going just 3-7 ATS. The Knights, on the other hand, are outclassed here offensively, defensively, and on the boards. WSU has taken all six meetings in this series going back three seasons. The best player on the floor, Tyson Etienne will dominate here. The Shockers are 4-1 ATS L5 on the road. The Knights are 2-5 ATS L7 as a home underdog. Take Wichita State. Thank you.

OLD DOMINION.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 651.

3:00 pm pst.

Old Dominion has dominated Charlotte, taking eight of the last 10 meetings SU and going 7-3 ATS. The Monarchs, behind four double-digit scorers are playing some good, solid basketball.

St. Johns.

Game 631.

6:00 pm pst.

The very healthy Red Storm are red-hot, winning six in a row SU and eight in a row ATS. They took down the Bulldogs, 69-57 back in January, while they were just beginning to stride. They are a better team now. SJU is 4-0 ATS L4 on the road and 5-0 ATS L5 as an underdog. Butler is 5-14-1 ATS L20 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600 and 4-9-1 ATS L14 as a favorite. Take the Red Storm. Thank you.

Arkansas.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 615.

4:00 pm pst.

Kentucky has dominated this series historically. They have taken eight in a row over Arkansas. But these are two very different teams this season. The Razorbacks own the 12 ranked scoring offense in the nation, accounting for over 82.7 PPG en route to a 14-5 record (10-7-1 ATS). The struggling Wildcats have only twice put up 80 points or so in a game. Their lackluster “O” is going to have major problems here against an Arkansas “D” that has been superb. Kentucky is 1-5 ATS L6 at home, 1-5 ATS L6 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600, and 1-6 ATS l7 overall. Take Arkansas. Thank you.

Ohio State.

BEST BET.

Game 861.

6:00 pm pst.

Ohio State is playing their best basketball of the season right now. The Buckeyes have won four in a row and seven of their last eight SU, going 6-2 ATS. They possess one of the best starting front courts in the nation. Their size, strength, and rebounding in the paint are too much for the Terrapins to handle. Ohio State is 4-0 ATS L4 on the road and 14-6 ATS L20 a favorite. Maryland is 0-6 ATS L6 at home and 1-4 ATS L5 overall. Take the Buckeyes. Thank you.

Kansas City Chiefs.

Super Bowl LV WINNER.

Game 101.

3:30 pm pst.

In a game that puts together the defending Super Bowl Champion and the league’s hottest young quarterback against a team led by the winningest quarterback in the history of the league, do away with all the smoke and mirrors. These two teams met back in the end of November in this same stadium, with Kansas City prevailing, 27-24. Patrick Mahomes bested Tom Brady. These are the NFL’s No.1 and No.2 passing offenses. Tampa Bay did away with the running attack for most of the season but as of late started to utilize the ground game. Kansas City has a mediocre rushing attack and has had a bit more success on the ground. Both offenses put up about the same number of points.

A lot has been spoken about the Bucs defense being stellar against the run. They are. But these are two of the best QB’s in the game and both units are primarily passing attacks. Having said that, overall, these two defenses yield about the same number of points, literally a half-point difference.

This game is going to come down to four major factors. First, coaching, Andy Reid is a much sharper coach with a better and more experienced playoff staff around him than Bruce Arians. Second, defense. We all know how good these offenses are. But the Chiefs are significantly better against the pass ranking 14th compared the Buccaneers, which are 28th. Third, special teams. Both have good kickers but KC has much better return specialists. Last, mistakes. And Patrick Mahomes has been more consistent than Tom Brady and overall, the Chiefs turn the ball over less. The Chiefs are 4-1 ATS L5 playoff games and 11-5 ATS L16 vs. teams with a winning record. Tale Kansas City. Thank you.

The 11th ranked Volunteers come in here looking to make a statement. They come off a loss and need to get back on track here. This is the opponent to do just that as they are confident facing a Wildcats team they have beaten three of the last four meetings both SU and ATS. Kentucky is ice-cold dropping five of the last six both SU and ATS. The healthier UT squad owns a swarming defense that ranks 6th nationally yielding only 58.9 PPG. The Road Team is 5-2 ATS L7 meetings in this series. The Wildcats are 1-4-1 ATS L6 as an underdog, 1-5 ATS L6 vs. teams with a SU winning record, and 1-4 ATS L5 at home. Take the Volunteers.

These two teams play each other close as the last six meetings have been separated by 1, 6, 5, 3, 1, and 5 points. While Marshall can score points, they really haven’t faced a tough defense. In comes the scrappy, Old Dominion team that can play “D”. The Monarchs, which have won four of the last five SU coming into this contest, can match the Thundering Herd back court double-digit scoring trio with their own superstars. But this game will be won in the trenches, where OD has the bigger and stronger front court. Ezikpe, Trce, and Reece (30.2 PPG, 19.2 RPG combined) will own the paint. Take the Monarchs. Thank you.

Game 6.

4:05 pm pst.

When the best team in the NHL faces off against the worst, we’ve got to move on it. The Canadiens are on-fire while the Senators are frozen. Montreal has taken three in a row and seven of the last 10 in this series. Take the Canadiens on the PUCK LINE. Thank you.

Dallas.

POWER PLAY.

Game 13.

4:05 pm pst.

Dallas took Tuesday’s meeting, 6-3. They rank 2nd offensively and 4th defensively and outclass Columbus in every category. The Stars are 7-0 L7 as a favorite and 5-0 vs. teams with a losing record. The Blue Jackets are 2-6 L8 at home and 4-10 L14 overall. Take Dallas. Thank you.

Florida.

Central GOW.

Game 2.

4:05 pm pst.

Florida owns a 5-0-0-1 record behind top-10 scoring and defensive squads. Nashville, on both sides of the ice possess some of the poorest stats in the league. The Panthers have taken seven of the last 10 meetings in this series, are 5-1 L6 vs. the Central, and 5-1 L6 as a favorite. Take Florida. Thank you.

Ohio State.

Best Bet.

Game 731.

4:00 pm pst.

The No. 7 and No. 8 teams in the nation square off here. Ohio State has won three in a row and six of their last seven SU, while covering five of those seven outings. This includes outright victories over such notables as Rutgers, Illinois, and Wisconsin. Iowa dropped two of their last three SU and all three ATS to Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan State. Two of those opponents, the Hoosiers and Spartans, they were favored by double-digits. While the Hawkeyes possess a powerful offense, they also yield a lot of points. The Buckeyes can score and own a nasty and frustrating “D”. Luka Garza is arguably the most dominating player in college basketball. But OSU has six solid big men to rotate on the center. 6’7”, 240 lb., Liddell, 6’7”, 215 lb., Sueing, and 6’8”, 225 lb., Young are also monsters and will be too much to handle defensively. The Buckeyes are 4-1 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600 and 4-1-1 ATS L6 as an underdog. Take Ohio State. Thank you.

Virginia.

ACC GAME OF THE MONTH.

Game 710.

6:00 pm pst.

The 14th ranked Virginia Cavaliers roll into PNC Arena angry and looking for redemption. The team comes off their first loss since the end of December. Following a seven game SU win streak (5-2 ATS), the Cavaliers couldn’t do anything right in Saturday’s, 65-51 embarrassing loss to rival, Hokies (as a five-point favorite). This is a team that was way off their stellar numbers of hitting nearly 40% from beyond the arc and an overall 50% from the floor (39.3% and 49.5%). They face a mediocre NC State Wolfpack squad that enters this contest dropping five of their last six SU and covering just twice since mid-December (2-8 ATS run). To make matters worse, they just lost their floor general and leading-scorer, Devon Daniels (16.5 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 3.1 APG, 1.7 SPG) a week ago. The starting back court trio of Murphy III, Clark, and Beekman will control the tempo while forwards, Hauser and Huff (28.4 PPG and 13.3 RPG combined) will go uncontested in the paint. Especially if NC State’s best rebounder, Funderburk (check status) misses another outing. The Cavaliers are 30-13-1 ATS L44 on the road, 7-0 ATS L7 following an ATS loss, and 4-1 ATS L5 overall. The Wolfpack are 1-4 ATS L5 at home, 0-5 ATS L5 following a SU loss, and 2-7-1 ATS L10 vs. teams with a SU winning record. Take Virginia. Thank you.

Edmonton on the PUCK LINE.

Losers of eight straight, Ottawa is hands down the worst team in hockey. During their current slide, they are losing by 3.0 GPG. Take Edmonton on the PUCK LINE. Thank you.

PSU.

SD.

Game 621.

5:30 pm pst.

PSU just upended Wisconsin, 81-71 on Saturday. The pesky Nittany Lions match up well with the Badgers. While I expect Wiscy to be a bit tougher than last game, the odds makers are severely overvaluing the revenge factor. The underdog is 17-4 ATS L21 meetings. Take Penn State. Thank you.

Memphis.

TOP-RATED.

Game 549.

5:05 pm pst.

Winners of seven in a row SU and ATS, Memphis is striding. They are monstrous on the boards and own the league’s 5th ranked defense. The Pacers are 1-5 ATS L6 at home, 1-4 ATS L5 on 1 days rest, and 2-6 ATS L8 overall. Take the Grizzlies. Thank you.

Montreal on the PUCK LINE.

PP.

Game 60.

4:05 pm pst.

The top-scoring team in the NHL faces off against the 27th ranked team in goals allowed. Montreal has taken eight of the last 10 meetings in this series, including the last three by a total of 18-7. Take the Canadiens on the PUCK LINE. Thank you.

Toledo.

HR.

Game 618.

4:00 pm pst.

Toledo has had their way with Akron, winning eight of the last 10 meetings both SU and ATS. The Rockets have a starting-five, all averaging double-digits. They are 5-1 ATS L6 at home, 8-2 ATS L10 as a fav, 19-7 ATS L26 overall. Take Toledo. Thank you.

Iowa.

BIG TEN BB.

Game 620.

4:00 pm pst.

Luka Garza (26.4 PPG/ 8.6 RPG) is arguably the most dominant player in the nation. MSU has no one to compete with the 7’0”, 270 lb. center. He will devour the Spartans. The Hawkeyes are 15-1 ATS L16 following an ATS loss, 20-4-2 ATS L26 at home, and 24-11-3 ATS L38 overall. Take Iowa. Thank you.

UNC.

Annihilator.

Game 623.

4:00 pm pst.

Two teams heading in opposite directions. UNC is red-hot, winning six of their last seven SU while Clemson is cold as ice, losing four of their last five SU and only covering two of their last 10 contests. The Tar heels will dominate the boards here. The Tigers are 0-4 ATS L4 as a ‘dog. Take North Carolina. Thank you.

West Virginia.

CTB.

Game 625.

4:00 pm pst.

Huge edge in every category for WVU. But getting to face them off an embarrassing loss will be fatal for Iowa State, which has only one SU win since November and is 3-8 ATS overall this season. The Cyclones are 1-11 ATS L12 as a home ‘dog. Take the Mountaineers. Thank you.

Baylor.

BB.

Game 627.

4:00 pm pst.

The Bears enjoy mauling conference foes and face a struggling Longhorns team here. This game gets ugly. Baylor is 19-7-1 ATS L27 as a road favorite and 12-4 ATS L16 overall. Texas is 1-4 ATS L5 as a home underdog and 7-19 ATS L26 overall at home. Take the Bears. Thank you.

Marquette.

Ideal spot for a healthy Marquette to turn things around against a Butler squad they have beaten three of the last four SU and all four ATS. Take the Golden Eagles. Thank you.

Game 863.

4:00 pm pst.

Revenge is a dish best served cold. Valpo got smoked 70-52 last night at the hands of Evansville. Look for the Crusaders, which have more talent and depth to bounce back here and win. The ‘dog is 4-1 ATS L5 meetings in this series. The Purple Aces are 2-6 ATS L8 as a favorite and 3-8 ATS l11 as a home favorite. Take Valparaiso. Thank you.

SJU.

SSD.

Game 819.

12:30 pm pst.

These two teams met two weeks ago with Marquette prevailing, 73-71. However, St. Johns has covered the last two meetings which were separated by a total of four points. The Red Storm enters this matchup going 4-1 their last five SU and riding a five-game ATS hot streak. While the Golden Eagles do possess the front court, these matchups are usually dominated by the back court. Where the Red Storm certainly has the better talent and depth. This includes the best player on the floor, guard, Julian Champagnie (19.7 PPG/6.8 RPG) Marquette is 1-5 ATS L6 at home, 1-6 ATS L7 as a favorite, and 1-8 ATS L9 overall. Take St. Johns. Thank you.

Pitt.

BB.

Game 758.

5:00 pm pst.

Pitt is on a two-game slide. But playing Notre Dame is just what the doctor ordered. AAC Player of the Year candidate, Justin Champagnie and the Pitt Panthers won eight of their last nine SU and went 7-2 ATS before dropping those last two outings. They have covered seven of the last eight meetings with the Irish. Notre Dame is a mess and is outclassed on both ends of the court in this matchup and will be manhandled on the boards badly. They are point spread poison going 2-6 ATS L8 as an underdog, 0-5 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage over .600, and 3-7 ATS L10 overall. Take Pitt. Thank you.

Sacramento.

Top-Rated play.

Game 507.

5:05 pm pst.

The much healthier Sacramento team is on a three-game win and cover streak while the depleted Miami squad (eight players out or questionable) has lost five in a row SU and are on a 3-9 ATS slide. The Kings are hot and possess the much stringer inside/rebounding corps. They are 5-1 ATS L6 vs. the Heat and 20-8 ATS L28 as a road ‘dog. The Heat are 1-7-1 ATS L9 on 1 days rest and 0-4-1 ATS L5 at home. Take Sacramento. Thank you

Calgary is ice-cold, losing three straight while Montreal is red-hot, riding a three-game win streak and has taken the last six meetings in this series. Take the Canadiens. Thank you.

Toronto.

BB.

Game 13.

4:05 pm pst.

Toronto has won four straight, en route to 7-2 record, sitting atop the North with 14 points. They account for over 3.3 GPG. This doesn’t bode well for an Edmonton team that yields over 3.7 GPG. Take the Maple Leafs. Thank you.

Baylor.

HR.

Game 660.

1:00 pm pst.

Baylor enjoys stepping out of their conference and making an example of reps from other conferences. The Bears account for over 87.5 PPG (6th) and own the nation’s No.1 3-point shooting squad (44.0 %). This doesn’t bode well for a Tigers team that ranks 266th, yielding over 74.3 PPG. Auburn played well the last few weeks. But, none of those opponents are in the same class as Baylor. The back court quartet of Butler, Teague, Mitchell, and Flagler are too potent. The Bears are 7-2 ATS L9 at home, 9-2 ATS L11 following a SU win, and 5-1 ATS L6 overall. Take Baylor. Thank you.

Wichita State.

AAC GOM.

Game 678.

1:00 pm pst.

Put no concern in the fact that the Shockers are playing just their second game in more than two weeks. Wichita State is motivated here, looking for some redemption following their worst loss of the season. Expect them to swarm Central Florida with their stifling defense and shut down the lackluster, Knights “O”. This team is 4-1 ATS L5 as a favorite, 40-15-1 ATS L56 vs. teams with a SU losing record, and 6-1 ATS L7 overall. UCF is 1-6 ATS L7 on the road, 1-5 ATS L6 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600, and 1-5 ATS L6 overall. Take Wichita State. Thank you.

Cal.

Pac-12 Payday.

Game 771.

8:00 pm pst.

Oddsmakers are looking to trap you here. This game should be closer to a basket or so. And despite being the bottom two teams in the conference, a lot separates Cal from ASU. For starters, the Golden Bears own 7-10 SU and 8-8 ATS marks, riding a three-game cover streak. The Sun Devils don a 4-8 SU record and are a dismal, 2-10 ATS this season. While they do score a bot more, they also give up quite a bit more and are absolutely no match for Cal on the boards. ASU is 1-9 ATS L10 at home, 0-7 ATS L7 as a home fav, 4-17 ATS L21 as a fav, and 4-16-1 ATS L21 overall. Take the Golden Bears. Thank you.

UNDER in the Anaheim/Arizona matchup.

TOTALS BEST BET.

Game 51 and 52.

6:05 pm pst.

Both teams are among the worst in the league in scoring and both are among the best in goals allowed. Anaheim enters this matchup having played six straight UNDERS while Arizona’s last two outings have both gone UNDER the total. This includes Tuesday’s 1-0 matchup. Take the UNDER. Thank you.

Florida

CDGOW.

Game 39.

4:05 pm pst.

Historically, Columbus has fared well with Florida. But these are different teams and different times. History will not repeat itself today. The 3-0 Panthers rank 2nd in the NHL in scoring, averaging 4.3 GPG. This does not bode well for the Blue Jackets, which are yielding over 3.0 GPG. Florida is 21-8 L29 vs. teams with a losing record. Columbus is 1-5 L6 at home. Take the Panthers. Thank you.

Montreal.

DBB.

Game 44.

4:05 pm pst.

Montreal is playing some great hockey, winning four of their last five coming into this contest. They have dominated Calgary, victorious in the last five meetings in the series. No reason why the red-hot Canadiens won’t extend their win streak over the Flames. Take Montreal. Thank you.

Utah.

CONSENSUS PLAY.

Game 550.

6:05 pm. pst.

While the Mav’s are most-likely seeing the return of a few regulars, there’s still a few sidelined. The Jazz come in here red-hot, winning and covering nine straight outings and own the NBA’s 3rd ranked defense. Dallas will be out of sync to begin win, trying to their returning players back into the rotation. But facing a Utah “D” that yields only 105.4 PPG is going to be fatal. To add insult to injury, on both ends of the court, they are outclassed on the glass, where the Jazz top the league offensively and possess the 6th ranked squad on the defensive side. Utah is 6-0 ATS L6 at home, 8-0 ATS L8 as a favorite, and 5-0 ATS L5 vs. teams with a SU losing record. Take Utah. Thank you.

Boise State.

HIGH ROLLER.

Game 691.

6:00 pm pst.

The Broncos have rattled off 13 consecutive SU victories and sit atop the Mountain West Conference at 9-0 in league play. Not only do they win SU, but they are a whopping, 10-3 ATS in lined games this season. The Rams are a good team. But there’s a difference between good and great. For starters, Boise State racks up over 81.2 PPG (30th) while allowing just 61.1 PPG (16th). They are monsters on the boards with five stellar rebounders. There’s a big disparity in this matchup on the glass. Colorado State’s two best rebounders are guards. They don’t have the big men to compete here. The Broncos are 6-1 ATS L7 on the road, 20-7-1 ATS L28 as a favorite, and 18-7-1 ATS L26 overall. Take Boise State. Thank you.

Georgia Tech.

BUST YOUR BOOKIE.

Game 641.

6:00 pm pst.

Georgia Tech is playing some solid basketball. They are scoring points with incredible accuracy, shooting 47.4% from the floor and 38.3% beyond the arc. Over the years Duke had had their way with them SU. And yet, The Yellow Jackets have covered the last two meetings in this series. But these are two very different teams this year. The Blue Devils are 5-5 SU and 1-9 ATS this season. To add insult to injury they are also 0-6 ATS L6 at home, 0-5 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage over .600, and 0-5 ATS L5 overall. The Yellow Jackets are 13-5 ATS L18 at home, 5-1 ATS L6 as an underdog, and 4-0 ATS l4 overall. Take Georgia Tech. Thank you.

Arizona.

HR.

Game 866.

8:00 pm pst.

Arizona had an 84-82 win over ASU on Thursday. The Sun Devils are a bit banged-up and may be distracted due to coach Bobby Hurley’s actions following the end of last week’s matchup which stirred backlash from the Pac-12, the media, and fans. The Wildcats are far superior on the glass and have quite a bit more depth. ASU is 1-5-1 ATS L7 on the road, 1-8 ATS L9 following a SU loss, and 5-15-1 ATS L21 overall. Take Arizona. Thank you.  

Buffalo Bills.

AFC TITLE GAME WINNER.

Game 313.

3:40 pm pst.

The defending Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs certainly deserve all their praise. But they haven’t covered

a game since November 1. As a matter of fact, their last seven regular season wins came by 2, 4, 3, 6, 6, 3, and 3 points. Throw in the mix last week’s six-point win over the Cleveland Browns, who outscored them in the 2nd half, and you realize they aren’t as unbeatable as their record shows. The Buffalo Bills enter this contest winning their last eight SU and going 9-1 ATS their last 10. In the regular-season matchup, the Chiefs came off their first loss of the campaign and was focused to bounce back against a still-maturing Bills squad. Buffalo has the confidence, the momentum, and the defense to rattle Patrick Mahomes and slow the Kansas City offense down. On the flip side, Josh Allen is 6-0 vs. top-10 total defenses this season. The Bills “O” ranks 2nd in scoring, putting up over 31.3 PPG. This doesn’t bode well as the Chiefs “D” is very beatable. Buffalo is 5-1 ATS L6 at the Chiefs, 4-0 ATS L4 on the road, 7-1-2 ATS L10 as a road ‘dog, and 6-1 ATS L7 vs. the AFC. Kansas City is 1-4 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning record, 0-5 ATS L5 at home, 0-4 ATS L4 as a home fav, and 0-5 ATS L5 vs. the AFC. Take the Bills. Thank you.

Green Bay Packers.

NFC TITLE GAME WINNER.

Game 312.

12:05 pm pst.

In a rematch from a mid-October meeting in which Tampa Bay throttled Green Bay, 38-10, you can expect a very different outcome here. That meeting was before the Packers offense became more well-balanced. The Buccaneers defense is good, but is vulnerable to the pass. Last week’s performance against Drew Brees, they took advantage of his diminished arm strength. Well, that’s not going to happen here. In comes Aaron Rodgers (48 TD’s, 5 INT’s, 70.7% CR, 4,299 YP) and one of the most explosive aerial assaults in the NFL. RB, Aaron Jones will keep the Tampa Bay “D” honest, allowing Rodgers to light up the sky in the air vs. the 21st ranked pass defense of the Bucs. We all know Tampa Bay abandoned the run this season. They don’t run the ball at all. When good, aggressive defenses go up against Tom Brady and key on him, the TB “O” sputters. Let’s face it the GB stop-unit vastly improved over the last two months, holding all opponents to 25 or less points. Remember that the Packers score 30 or more 13 times this season and have not turned the ball over in 11 outings. They rank No.1 in the NFL in offensive miscues. They don’t make mistakes. The Home Team is 5-2 ATS L7 meetings in this series. Tampa Bay is 3-7 ATS L10 in the month of January. Green Bay is 5-1 ATS L6 playoffs home games. Take the Packers. Thank you.

Winnipeg.

Best Bet.

Game 42.

7:05 pm pst.

Winnipeg is in fine form this early in the season. At 3-1, they are doing it with balanced scoring, strong defense, and a stellar effort in goal with the duo of Brossoit and Hellebuyck sharing time. They took both the Tuesday and the Thursday meetings with Ottawa to give the Jets four straight over the Senators, going back to last season, and eight of the last 10 matchups. Ottawa is 11-41 L52 on the road and 15-37 L52 overall. Winnipeg is 7-2 L9 at home and 7-0 L7 as a favorite. Take the Jets. Thank you.

Louisville.

Game 676.

1:00 pm pst.

The Blue Devils are crushing bettors, donning a 1-8 ATS mark this season. They enter this contest dropping their last two SU and their last four against the spread. The Cardinals are sliding as well, also on a two-game skid. But, at 9-3, Louisville has shown some real grittiness. They have the muscle up front and a quartet of guards that rival any back court corps in the nation. Duke is 1-7 ATS L8 on the road and 1-6 ATS L7 following an ATS loss. Take Louisville. Thank you. 

FSU.

High Roller.

Game 656.

12:00 pm pst.

Clemson’s weakness has been exposed. Their last two games, both downright beatings, they were brutalized by 3-point shooting. Now, they go up against the conference’s best 3-point shooting team. FSU hits an astounding 38.6% from beyond the arc. To add insult to injury, the Seminoles are on a three-game heater, both SU and ATS. Their front court of Gray, Koprivica, and Osborne (23.0 PPG, 15.7 RPG combined) have too much muscle. The Home Team is 5-1 ATS L6 meetings in this series. The Tigers are 2-5 ATS L7 on the road and 0-3-1 ATS L4 overall. The Seminoles are 8-3 ATS L11 at home and 11-5 ATS L16 overall. Take Florida State. Thank you.

UCONN.

Big East Blockbuster.

Game 615.

9:00 am pst.

The 11th ranked Blue Jays had a difficult time in the earlier matchup with the 23rd ranked Huskies. And, that was when they were playing well. Creighton is now on a two-game skid, both SU and ATS and have only covered two of their last seven contests. Connecticut has won four of their last five SU and is on a 6-1 ATS run. They are managing just fine since their star, Bouknight went down. The Huskies are 4-0 ATS L4 on the road. The Blue Jays are 1-4 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600. Take UConn. Thank you.

NY.

Game 551.

7:05 pm pst.

Very quietly, the New York Knicks own the NBA’s No.1 defense. They rank 1st in points allowed (102.8 PPG), FG% (43%), and 3-point % (30.7%). That would be enough here but they are also one of the best squads in basketball on the offensive boards and after a slight slump, New York has now rattled off three consecutive wins and covers. On the other hand, “Suckto”, I mean Sacto, is just horrible. They have dropped four in a row SU and nine of their last 11 overall while covering just once in the New Year. And if you are keeping score, that means they are 1-9 ARS in 2021. The Knicks are 5-1-1 ATS L7 in Sacramento. Take the Knicks. Thank you.

Game 27.

6:05 pm pst.

Very simply, Vegas is playing outstanding hockey. At 4-0 overall and 3-1 on the PL, the Golden Knights are once again making bettors money. They have won the last four meetings with the Coyotes by a combined, 15-4 and going 3-1 in those last four meetings on the PL. That includes Monday and Tuesday’s, 4-2 and 5-2 victories. There’s no reason why tonight’s outcome should be any different. Take Vegas on the PL. Thank you.

Michigan.

Game 843.

4:00 pm pst.

I am going to go against the grain here. I know many out there will automatically take the home ‘dog in this Big Ten rivalry. And why not? Purdue is on a four-game win and cover streak over conference opponents, MSU, Indiana, PSU, and OSU. But Michigan is an entirely different monster. The 7th ranked Wolverines are crushing opponents as well as anyone that bets against them. At 12-1 SU and outscoring foes by an average of 14.2 PPG, this team is 10-3 against the number. Following their only loss to Minnesota, Michigan came back to annihilate Maryland, 87-63. They were more focused and trust me, they will not be taking this matchup lightly. They are 5-1 ATS L6 as a road favorite and 6-1 ATS L7 overall. Take the Wolverines. Thank you.

Utah State.

VIM.

Game 778.

8:00 pm pst.

Utah State is rolling, winning 11 in a row and all eight of those lined games ATS. This includes an 83-64 beating over Colorado State on Tuesday. The Aggies dominated the Rams on the glass, 42-23. USU is 9th offensively and 15th defensively in rebounding and will once again own the boards here. Utah State is 5-0 ATS L5 at home, 9-0 ATS L9 as a favorite, and 10-1 ATS L11 overall. Take the Aggies. Thank you.

Pacific.

Consensus.

Game 759.

6:00 pm pst.

Pacific has dominated this series, taking eight of the last 10 meetings SU, including both 2020 meetings. The Tigers, at 5-1 SU are striding behind a top-25 defense. Pepperdine is in over their head here. The Waves two top players, Edwards and Ross are each putting in between 32-38 minutes per game and are truly overworked. This will prove to be fatal tonight. Pacific is 4-1 ATS L5 on the road and 7-3-1 ATS L11 overall. Take the Tigers. Thank you.

Arizona.

PAC-12 GOW.

Game 765.

6:00 pm pst.

The Sun Devils seem to be distracted, resulting in a four-game SU losing streak and even worse, a six-game ATS slide. As a matter of fact, ASU is a pitiful, 1-9 ATS this season. Poor shooting from both inside and outside of the perimeter and the 305th ranked defense has been serious issues. But, on both ends of the court, they own just about the poorest rebounding stats in college basketball (330th “O”, 326th “D”). That doesn’t bode well as Arizona possesses one of the best rebounding corps in the conference. Oh, by the way, they also own one of the most explosive offenses in the nation (80.0 PPG). The Sun Devils are 5-16 ATS L21 at home and 5-16-1 ATS L22 overall. Take the Wildcats. Thank you.

BOTN play.

Games 3 and 4.

4:05 pm pst.

These two rivals know each other well. Maybe that’s why seven of their last 10 matchups have gone under the total. Moreover, the last six meetings in Beantown have gone under the total. Look for a very physical game again resulting in an UNDER. Thank you.

Tampa Bay, which is 2-0 both SU and on the puck line, ranks 1st in goals (5.0), 2nd in shots (35.0), and 7th in PP%/PK% (28.6%). They are 5-1 the last six meetings in this series and come in here 46-17 L63 overall. While Columbus is just 3-8 L11 at home, 1-4 L5 on 1 days rest, and 8-21 L29 overall. Take the Lightning on the puck line. Thank you.

NJ/NYI UNDER.

Consensus.

Games 7 and 8.

4:05 pm pst.

These two rivals hate one another and play each other tightly, resulting in the under going 14-6-4 the last 24 overall meetings. This season they combine to play five unders in six total contests. The under is 5-0-1 in the Islanders L6 overall and 10-4 in the Devils L14 overall. Take the under. Thank you.

Rutgers.

MM.

Game 734.

4:00 pm pst.

This is an ideal opportunity for Rutgers to get back on track and get some confidence against a lesser foe. Their record is skewed as the last four games, all SU losses, were against Iowa, MSU, OSU, and Wisconsin. Penn State just doesn’t match up well here. This is a team that is 0-5 vs. conference foes and owns a league-worst “D”, allowing over 77.0 PPG. The Nittany Lions are 1-6 ATS L7 at home and 4-11 ATS L16 overall. Take the Scarlet Knights. Thank you.

They have been idle for over a week now but I wouldn’t expect any rust here as interim coach, Issac Brown is proving to be a very thorough and a pretty sharp guy. Memphis is point spread poison covering just once since their season-opener. That’s a 1-9 ATS slide. The WSU defense is way to tough for Memphis’s lackluster “O”. Tyson Etienne (17.9 PPG) is the best player on the court here. The Shockers are 19-7-1 ATS L27 on the road. The Tigers are 0-4 ATS L4 at home. Take Wichita State. Thank you.

Montreal.

The Canucks are “Cannots”. They have lost three in a row by a combined, 13-4. In comes the explosive Canadiens, which are averaging 4.0 goals per game and 34.0 shots on goal per game. They are 4-0 L4 in Vancouver and 16-5 L21 overall vs. Vancouver. Take Montreal. Thank you.  

Toronto.

PUCK PICK.

Game 78.

4:05 pm pst.

At 3-1, Toronto ranks 6th in shots on goal (33.8) and 9th in scoring (3.5 goals per game). They have taken seven of the last eight at home vs. Edmonton and 20 of the last 27 overall. Take the Maple Leafs. Thank you.

Clemson.

Best Bet.

Game 673.

4:00 pm pst.

Look for Clemson to bounce back here following their embarrassing loss on Saturday to Virginia that snapped their four-game SU win streak. The Tigers started the season at 5-0 (both SU and ATS) then dropped a nail-biter to the Hokies, then got on the hot streak. This is a team that recuperates and adapts quite well. Georgia Tech is hot too. But the Yellow Jackets are all offense. They can score but their numbers are padded. Outside of an early-December win over Kentucky, all of their big scoring performances were against nobody teams. They must now face the 12-ranked defense in the nation (60.1 PPG allowed). Take Clemson. Thank you.

St. Bonaventure.

BOOKIE BUSTER.

Game 670.

3:00 pm pst.

The very healthy Bonnies are red-hot, winning and covering four straight. VCU, on the other hand, is ice-cold against the spread, crushing bettors, dropping their last three against the number. The aggressive 21st-ranked St. Bonny defense (61.6 PPG allowed) is going to frustrate VCU, which only possesses two double-digit scorers. The Bonnies starting-five are all flirting with or averaging DD’s. Look for their stellar back court quartet of Holmes, Lofton, Adaway, and Osunniyi to slow down the pace and play their game. The favorite is 4-0 ATS L4 meetings in this series. The Rams are 3-7 ATS L10 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over .600 and 3-7 ATS L10 as a road underdog. The Bonnies are 11-4-1 ATS L16 at home and 20-6-1 ATS L27 as a home favorite. Take St. Bonaventure. Thank you.
