Or a Top 6 team like the Sooners laying a bucket to a 5 loss team. Again. Will go ML with the home dog. 4* Money Maker KANSAS STATE

Taking WEST VIRGINIA. Well - West Va beat this team here the last 2 years. Those Kansas teams were ranked #2 and #1 when visiting Morgantown. This is nothing like those Jayhawks teams. Is this the game Kansas finally turns it on? Lost to Washington by 11 as 21.5 faves. Followed by Arizona beating them by 10 on their own home court. The very next game as 12pt faves they edge Nebraska by 1 on the road. Lose at home to Texas Tech by 12 as 8pt faves. Survive TCU on the road. Edge Iowa State by 5 as 16pt home faves. Hold on for 1pt win over K-State on a miss at the buzzer as 12pt home faves. But yet.. They are ready to play tonight. Press Virginia off a 72-71 road loss. A game they blew a 11pt lead. You know Huggy rode these guys after blowing that game. They take it on Kansas tonight. 4* Money Maker WEST VIRGINIA

Chattanooga off a 110-101 OT loss. 7 guys played. 2 played 45 minutes, 1 played 44. Another 39. Now they are back on the road, against a pretty Mercer team. Bears dropped their first 3 SoCon games before blasting Samford 31 last game. I see nearly the same outcome tonight. 4* Money Maker MERCER

Taking ANAHEIM today. As we close out the football season, I will be getting back to adding more NHL and the occasional NBA play. There will always be daily college hoops. Hockey a bit slow for us so far (45-59 -440). Obviously, we have played a lot more dogs, but have yet to reap the rewards. The last 3 years we have seen profits of +1245, +608 and +3116. So we have several months to grind out winners. I really think that we can be back to even, or up, by Super Bowl Sunday. -- So we'll grab the DUCKS tonight as the finish up this 5 game road swing (2-2). Avs in the tail end of huge home-stand. Scheduling points to the home team. But odd that the road team is favored. Ducks have had the edge of late, winning 4 of the last 5. 4* Money Maker ANAHEIM DUCKS

So after a 22-15 start, we have gone 1-6 since December 20th. Not what I want at all. Several close losses that if we go 3-0 instead of 0-3, I wouldn't be terribly upset. That being said, let's start to find some winners in The Association. Early start, Hornets not shooting the ball well last 2.

Taking the VIKINGS. Real simple for me. One. We are rested. Two. We have the much better defense. Three. We have seen the last 2 weeks that New Orleans has had trouble stopping Tampa and Carolina. A pair of teams that are pretty generic with their offenses. - Now they face a Minny team that has a bunch of options for their QB to turn to. This is no knock on Brees. I just thin that their defenses injury and depth will catch up with on the road, and vs a team with probably the most under-rated HC in the league. 5* Best Bet MINNESOTA VIKINGS

Taking the STEELERS. Have to play a little on Pitt. First we have that revenge working for us. Utterly wrecked at home with Big Ben tossing, what, 10 INTS! - Seriously. That was a joke. Yes this Jags defense is very good. But the offense is putrid. And I had them last week. I thought they can put up points. Because they have. But I have seen Seattle and SF both carve this team up recently. This is an experienced Steelers team. Lots of explosiveness on offense. We are laying just a TD. I thin this should be a 10pt game for us. 8* Sure Shot PITTSBURGH STEELERS

Taking the PATRIOTS. I'll lay this beast. And try to keep my reasons brief. So Titans down 21-3 to KC. KC loses best player to take advantage of poor Tenn pass defense. Titans get, let's just say, a few calls in their favor. Won't get into detail. Safe to say that everything that needed to happen, happened. Enter the Pats. We are going to go against Hoodie? In a week where we see a problem between Brady, Kraft and Hoodie. It's mass chaos in New England. Coach vs Trainer vs Owner vs QB. Forget that nonsense. The defense has been an absolute monster down the stretch. Toss out those early games. 14ppg since. 'All in on Tennessee' - Belichick 10* Money Bomb NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

Taking MANHATTAN. I lost fading Siena the other night. Will come back for more here on Saturday. One. I like the Jaspers. Think they are really the only team to give Iona a run. Two. Siena comes in off of giving that Iona every it could handle. A 14pt lead in the game, before losing by 2. I think they gave it everything in that spot, and could be very flat, and the tank will run dry giving us room to pull out a nice double digit win. 4* Money Maker MANHATTAN

Taking the FALCONS today. You can grab the 2.5, but I will go 3 just to take back a little extra cash. So, we cashed on Atlanta last week. I am not sure why everyone is shocked they won. As I said. Against a rookie HC and basically, a rookie QB, I would take a veteran QB and HC playing with a chip, the size of a Super Bowl Trophy, on their shoulder. And what do they walk into here. Only an Eagles team that has been average at best. Now, I like Foles. In fact, I backed Philly over the Giants and while they won, they couldn't cover. Then we had that Monday night game vs the Raiders. Finally, the Nate Sudfeld game. Enter our Falcons. This isn't last years team. They are playing much better defense. The fact is, with no Wentz, this game is a toss up. ATL the fave really based on the QBs. Both defenses are pretty solid. And both teams can run the ball. I am just coming back to what they learned last year. Philly, like the Rams, are rolling the dice with house money, up-starts. Bright futures. Falcons on the other side of that. Veterans. Looking to redeem themselves. 5* Best Bet ATLANTA FALCONS

Taking SOUTH ALABAMA this afternoon. It would be easy to say we have to back the defending Sun Belt Champs with this line even on the road. But they are not playing well right now. They have dropped 3 of 4 to start conference play. This is their 3rd straight road game, again, in conference play. Every team will come at them just a bit harder, as they are the defending champs. But I will take my chances with the Jaguars who won both games last year, and 6 of the last 7. Maybe they just have Troy's number. 4* Money Maker SOUTH ALABAMA

Taking MONTANA here. It might look like a good call taking a home team that scores 90ppg in a Pk'em. Not for me though. I look at a couple bloated scores (116 on Linford, 125 on Portland Bible College! 111 on Willamette) and then at what has been done in conference play (75 Sac State, 74 Eastern Washington - 93 on Montana State who gives up nearly 80ppg). Forget that the Grizzlies have come in covering their last 10. We will focus on a defense giving up less than 70ppg. Montana is one of the top teams in the Big Sky. I did not have the Vikings as high. And I can't discount how they push the tempo. They have beaten 'big names' already this year. (Stanford, Cal, Loyola Marymount, Santa Clara, lost by a bucket to Butler). Conference play is a different animal though. And you have to ask yourself why a team that appears better by their wins and scoring ability is not favored. 4* Money Maker MONTANA GRIZZLIES

That is nuts. There will be a return to the norm. Tigers not giving up easy looks. And they need to start getting some conference wins themselves. Forget the 3, I will go ML. 4* Money Maker TOWSON

I'll lean on our rebounding edge as what pushes this to the win column for us. 4* Money Maker COASTAL CAROLINA

Last years 2 point loss at Fullerton was the only game in the last 4 that was less than a thirteen point victory. 20-19-13. Titans off an OT game. Maybe the tank runs a little dry late.

Taking SAN DIEGO. I'm buying these guys. They place tough. Good defense. I know this is a PK so there is no point value. But this team has lost to Mary's by 7 on the road. No shame in that. They dropped an OT game to North Texas. But that was on the heels off a big road win against PAC 12 Colorado. Losing to San Diego State isn't a bad loss. I don't like them losing to Santa Barbara. But they have beaten teams like Pacific already. Pacific with an OT win, a 1pt win, and a 2pt win. And near 40pt win over something called Arkansas-Fort Worth. 7-10 can just as easily be 4-13. And 2-13 if you take out that no-name team. I like my home teams. But I can't even hold my eyes and play the Tigers. SD is the better team regardless where the game is played. 4* Money Maker SAN DIEGO

And vs a team like GT, or any team that is playing the home dog role, I have to take that angle. Especially when we have a revenge spot from a 69-58 loss already this season.

Remove the 3 overtime games in the last 10 - We are now looking at a Huskies that team has scored more than 64 points twice. 5 times 64 or less.

Off to an 0-2 start in conference play as they have dropped both game to the other top teams, Furman and East Tenn. So this the the old 'circle the wagons game.' Must win in every sense of the word. They beat Western by 15 at home, and 20 on this court. They need more of the same tonight. 8* Sure Shot MERCER

Taking TEXAS A&M - These guys have sunk like an anchor after being ranked in the Top 10. But injuries will do that. They got their leading scored G Hogg back last game. Davis and Williams (should be back, out ill last game) should be able to control the paint. With Kentucky. They always reload. But they have to get on the same page. It is a problem.

Taking ALABAMA tonight. So. Tide is the team that shouldn't have been playing say a lot of people. Even though as the 4 seed they were to be favored over every other team in the playoffs, and the country for that matter. It is easy to say that the only real team Alabama played, Auburn, beat them. And then you Auburn beating what was the #1 Alabama and then #1 Georgia before falling to Georgia in the SEC Championship. But this Bama team was #1 for nearly all season for a reason. Just like they are favored over every team for a reason. Again, they have been dogs exactly once since 2010. A 1.5 to these same Georgia Bulldogs in 2015. Crimson Tide rolled to a 38-10 win. We know what to expect from Alabama. I thought they would cruise to a relatively easy win over Clemson and they did. I think the Clemson defense is as good, or better than Georgia's. Now. Is Baker Mayfield and the Sooner offense better than the Tide. Absolutely. But they pasted this defense for 48 points. And really, they should have won. And I am not saying that as a guy who had the Sooners. Their 1st year HC Riley really wet the bed when it mattered most. Kirby Smart is an old Bama assistant. Well, Saban is 11-0 winning with an average score of 38-10 over his old coaches. 427-111 in those 11 games Tide have outscored Tennessee (Dooley) , Colorado State (McElwain), Florida (Muschamp)+ (McElwain), Florida State (Jimbo) , and Michigan State (Dantonio. I am not expecting some wild game like that. I think this is going to be more along the lines of Bama/LSU, Auburn/ Oregon than the last 3 playoffs where we saw at least 60 scored in each game. These are really 2 of the same molded programs. But I am backing the teacher over the student. 5* Best Bet ALABAMA

Utes off a tough loss to Arizona, battling back a couple times before falling. Sun Devils after starting their road trip losing to rival Arizona, lost in OT at Colorado. Now have to face an always tough Utah team. And the last 3 trips here, ASU has been absolutely crushed. 81-46 last year, 83-41 the year before. 2014, 86-63.

Taking the PANTHERS. So. We have the old, it's hard to beat a good time 3 times playing out. Saints won 34-13 and 31-21 this already this year. But it is January football. I am not a fan of Cam at all. But I like his legs and the rest of the RBs vs this depleted Saints defense. Not a lot of depth and they are missing 5 starters. We saw the Bucs march down the field last week as time was running out to score a win. On a side not, that TD sent it Over the total and we go 7-2 instead of a super 8-1. I just think that we have seen Carolina knock off the Pats and Vikes. A pair of pretty good teams. We cashed with the Falcons over these same Panthers. Everyone saying, oh Carolina has a lot to play for. Well what about Atlanta. They were playing for their season. (had them yesterday also) - Road team 23-10 ATS last 33 in the series. Underdog 6-1 ATS last 7 in the series. Panthers 0-6 ATS last 6 in the series. Something has to give. I am betting on Cam being 'Superman' and not 'Laptop Man' - 8* Sure Shot CAROLINA PANTHERS

And if CoC was coming in off a win over Drexel, 5 straight and 9 of 10. Then maybe a play on Towson would have been in the cards. But that isn't the case. We get now a very focused and angry Charleston against the Tigers. The Tigers, who have already lost at Charleston by 9. Towson, who before beating up on Wilmington, had lost 4 straight (Elon, CoC, Pitt, Oakland) - Charleston has won 5 of the last 6 in the series. Again, bad loss.

I think the Jaguars defense is a beast. I think with a gimpy McCoy, if he even plays, we know he is not near 100%, that Taylor will force some things. That plays into the Jax strength, their defense. Yes, it is frightening laying near double digits with Blake Bortles. Jags have won their last 5 at home, last 3 putting up 35ppg. 4* Money Maker JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

But those two combinations is exactly why I am on the visitors in this spot. Atlanta really changed gears down the stretch going 6-2. Rams not exactly with a huge home field edge here either. Falcons couldn't make a stop in the 2nd half of the Super Bowl. But the defense is what has improved this year while the offense has taken a step back. I do like this Rams team. But all I have heard from people is, how don't the Rams win by a touchdown? For me, this is too many points to give to a playoff tested experienced team. Don't be shocked if Falcons win this outright. 4* Money Maker ATLANTA FALCONS
