Grabbing ILL CHI tonight. Flames already with a 15pt win under their belts a little over 2 weeks at home over Milwaukee. And to be honest, this is one of those, looks a little too good to me lines. Much like Top 5 Kansas giving a basket to K-State tonight(Wildcats as a Free Play tonight) - Ill Chi a notch below Wright State and Northern Kentucky in the Horizon at 6-3. Wis-Mil at 5-6. Road team 8-2 ATS last 10 in the series. Flames on a 6-1 ATS run through conference play. Ill-Chi 4-1 ATS last 5 in the series and 4-0 ATS here in Wiscy. 4* Money Maker ILLINOIS CHICAGO

Going UNDER the total. I'll tell, I wanted to pull the trigger on Western Carolina and the 11.5 - But even backing ugly dogs on a regular clip, it was just to tough tonight. Instead, I will focus on the over runs. 13 of the last 16 here have gone over. Yes. I said Over. But just looking at their last 10 match-ups, just 2 would have eclipsed this total. And 1 needed Double OT to get their. Going against the numbers. 4* Total Money UNDER Western Carolina/ Wofford

Taking LEHIGH. I don't see much difference in these teams. I do see Lehigh winning 4 of the last 6. The only 2 recently lined games, Lehigh was double digit faves in 2016. (They didn't cover 3&5pt wins) - Holy Cross lost by 6 just a couple weeks ago with both teams hitting over 50% of their shots. But numbers wise overall, have to lean with the dogs. You can grab 2.5 or even 3 if you want. But I think Lehigh outright. Better stats across the board. 3pt. FT rebounding. We have the edge. I'll grab the Mountain Hawks. 4* Money Maker LEHIGH

Taking TULSA. I like the Shockers. I am hoping for big things in March. But these guys are just off right now. 2 losses in 3 games. We had Tulsa as nice dogs at home and they lost by 4 in the game before those. So, for the last few games, Shockers not themselves. Tulsa on a 8-3 ATS run last 11.

Taking WEST VIRGINIA. Have had these guys a lot this year. Starting to forget what a win is like as they have dropped 3 of 4 outright. But I just have to auto-play here. Kentucky getting nearly double digits. Think the world will be on them. But I always say. Tough to get kids on the same page. They have had nice runs in the past. But eventually you hit a bad group that doesn't mix. Nothing really left to say. Huggy might remember losing 78-39 back in 2015. Maybe he tells his players to get revenge for the past. 4* Money Maker WEST VIRGINIA

Fairfield 2-6, the Bobcats 5-4. No team really shines here, so the records are worth a peek. Quinnipiac in 9 games decided by 2 or less points and are 6-3 in those games. So we know they are good in tight situations. Last 6 games in series all decided by 5 points or less. Quinni 4-2 in those. Fairfield on a 1-6 ATS run in conference play. 4* Money Maker QUINNIPIAC

Taking SEATTLE. A lot of times, I like ugly dogs. You know that. We have lost the last couple days with big spread conference dogs. But I see some pay for Seattle here. One. Bakersfield took a step back this year. Last year they went on a nice NIT run and won the WAC 2 years ago. They just snapped a 7 game losing streak. This is their 3rd straight road game. Take note. Chicago State is a terrible team. So Bakersfield scored 89. Before that - 59-53-74-42 in conference play. They barely shoot 40%. CSB has won 5 straight. Payback with the short home faves tonight. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE

Taking OAKLAND. Oakland is a trendy team to me. Couple years ago in the Summit they had a nice run. Back to back NCAAs getting to the 2nd round one year. They are 27-9 in Horizon play the last 2 years. But the Norse won this conference last year. Sitting on top at 7-1 while Oakland is at 5-3. This believe it or not to me, looks like a big line. Like. Why wouldn't we want Oakland getting points like this? NK won at Oakland back on the 8th, 87-83. Both teams can score. So again. Why is this number so high? I would think 3-4. Golden Grizzlies 1-6 ATS last 7 in Horizon play. Those were all as favorites. Only game as a dog they won outright as 5pt pups to Western Michigan. 5 times as dogs last year, 5 covers, 3 outright wins. Norse 15-5-1 ATS last 21 at home. As much as I say, sometimes things are good to be true. I have to grab the points. 4* Money Maker OAKLAND GOLDEN GRIZZLIES

We have a team that even with a poor record, comes out and battles every night. They are 4-4 in conference, Milwaukee 3-6. So maybe this is a line they are begging us to take.

Also just 1-5 on the road including 3 in conference play. 2 of those in OT and the other by 7. They have won 3 straight to get to 4-3 in A10 action. Duq with their last 2 home wins coming in OT fashion. The difference is while Richmond is scoring 73, 69 in OT games, Duquesne is putting up 101 and 94.

You have to take care of business, not wet the bed. East Tenn should win this one going away by 15+. Bears 0-3-1 ATS last 4 on the road, 1-6-1 ATS last 8 in conference play.

Central Michigan 4-10 ATS last 14 vs MAC teams. Maybe this line is too good to be true. But Red Hawks aren't that bad a team this year. We saw them knock off Ball State by 18 as a 5pt home dog. The East and West MAC are different. East, for me, is stronger. That being said, I had both of these guys at the bottom of their divisions. Again.

The underdog and road team, 5-1 ATS runs. Last 6 games these guys have played. 9-10-8-12-6 (Prov in OT)-2. So Nova had taken care of straight up wins. But have yet to cover this number.

Going OVER the total. It can be easy to look at this and think under. We have probably 2 of the Top 5 defenses in the league playing today. But this is still a low total. It was 38 and I was staring at it. I see a game in the 20s. For everyone who wants to knock Foles, the guy can still QB in this league. Do we forget 27 TD 2 INT year for these same Eagles? He has some weapons that Minny needs to contain. Vikings themselves can move the ball also. I just think everyone thinks Philly can't do anything offensively with what they have seen their last 3 games. 15-10, 6-0 loss to Dallas, 19-10 MNF Raiders game. Foles was 6-10 vs the Rams in relief of Wentz. He tossed 4 TDs vs the Giants the next. Raiders and Dallas were games they were going through the motions. Especially with nothing to prove vs the Cowboys. I won't be shocked to see this 30 points by halftime. 4* Total Money OVER Vikings / Eagles

Taking the JAGUARS. So. We had the Jags over the Bills. And we faded them last week vs the Steelers. Not really the way I want things to be working out on Jax. We cash very nicely with the Patriots as our Top 10* Money-Bomb over the Titans. That being said. There were reasons I liked/disliked them in spots. We won't rehash those. That is the past. Let's get to it. -- Defense. Clear edge for the Jags. Arguably the best in the league this year. Yes. We have seen Big Ben last week, and prior the Seahawks and SF put some points on the board on these guys. And Brady is the best in the biz. I probably shouldn't write Brady and Bortles in the same sentence. Look. Marrone is familiar with NE after going 2-2 ATS vs them when he was HC in Buffalo. It sure as heck can't hurt to have Tom Coughlin, who beat these Pats TWICE in Super Bowls in case you have been under a rock. Much like those Giants teams, defense is this teams strength. And like Marrone's old Biils teams, running the ball, is what dictates this offense. I know. I know. Pats looking like the last go around. Internal power struggles. I said last week, the Hoodie was ready.. On to Tennessee. But the fact is this. Both OC and DC are probably out to HC gigs. The HC and QB have been the best in the biz for a long time. You have to think this is their swan song. Either way. I think this defense keeps us in the game. Weather shouldn't be a problem. It will be warmer here than it was in Pitt last week. Maybe some rain. Will also be on the under here. 4* Money Maker JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

The one that lost the very next game 87-84 to Duke? Or do we get the Loyola-Chicago 16pt home fave losing outright? Look, these guys had a tough early stretch. But, before losing to Ole Miss they had reeled off 6 straight and 7 of 8, including a win at a very good Cincy team. So. we know they can play in hostile arenas. Not high on Kentucky. I know they bring in top classes. We had South Carolina over them for an outright win last game. I'll fade them again. 4* Money Maker FLORIDA

I am looking for a big bounce-back game here from VCU. Off a pair of losses, their last one a 67-52 home loss to Richmond. 34% shooting will contribute to 50 point games. For a team that scores over 75ppg, that is a huge drop-off. GW scored 53-55 in last years two games. VCU is going to want to get out and push it. GW is one of the slowest tempo teams in the land.
