10* over 7

Detroit has now played 15 overs in a row and aiming for #16 on Monday night when they travel to Seattle to face the Mariners. Alfredo Simon starts for the Tigers and he has allowed 29 hits in his last 14 innings and has 3 overs, o unders in his last three starts. His ERA is 11.05 in those starts. Iwakuma starts for the Mariners and he is coming off the Disabled List but did allow 4 runs in each of his last four starts.

The Tigers are without Miguel Cabrera but others like Kinsler, Cespedes and JD Martinez have done well. Seattle has Robinson Canu and Nelson Cruz for offense.

Hopefully, both teams contribute runs and we see over 7 runs on July 6th.

10* over 7 runs

10* over 9

Detroit has played 14 overs in a row and trying for #15. It hurts that Miguel Cabrera is out but JD Martinez, Victor Martinez and Cespedes are all solid hitters. Toronto has players like Reyes, Donaldson and Bautista who hit for power and average.

Justin Verlander's ERA is over 5 and he started the year injured. Estrada walked 4 vs. the Red Sox and gave up 5 runs in an earlier raod game.

Playing the streak until it ends.

10* over 9 runs

Toronto at Detroit
1pm Saturday
10* 0ver 8

The Tigers have 13 overs in a row and aim for 14 on Saturday afternoon. Dickey vs. Price. Playing the streak until it ends.

10* over 8.5

Detroit has played 13 overs in a row and face the best offense in baseball on Friday night. The Tiger bullpen has been erratic and the starters on Friday have combined for 19 overs/12 unders.

10* over 8.5

10* over 8 runs

Detroit has played 12 overs in a row and aim for 13 on Thursday afternoon. Red Dog has been on the last few overs. The Pirates won easily yesterday as Neal Walker was the key hitter. McCutcheon and Alvarez are others stars for the visitors while Detroit has Miguel Cabrera and JD Martinez (20 HR's).

It does concern me that Liriano starts for Pittsburgh and he has good stuff but did allow 5 runs at Washington recently and I expect the Tigers to bounce back after a 9-4 loss on Wednesday.

10* under 7

The Cards have played 27 overs and 45 unders and the CWS have 30 overs to go with 41 unders. The two starters combine for 70% unders. I think we see a 3-2 or 4-2 final on Wednesday.

Pittsburgh at Detroit
7pm Wednesday
10* over 8

Detroit has now played 11 overs in a row. Both teams used up some relievers in extra innings on Tuesday night and we won with the over 7.5. AJ Burnett has a low ERA but has allowed 3, 4 and 5 runs in his last three road games while Simon has allowed 5 and 7 runs in his last two starts (3 walks in both games). Playing the over streak to continue until it losses. Hoping to continue to see runs from both teams on Wednesday with solid hitters on both the Pirates (McCutcheon, Alvarez) and the Tigers (Cabrera, Martinez).

10* under 154

These two just played on Sunday in Tulsa and we saw a high scoring game with 182 (93-89) points. They played earlier in June and we saw just 113 points. Seattle has struggled so far with a new coach and some new players, even though Sue Bird still plays point guard. Tulsa has solid players like Skylar Diggins and Riquena Williams.

The league started off with unders but we have seen plenty of overs lately but I think we see a game in the 140's in this rematch from just a few days ago.

10* over 7

San Diego has 44 overs and just 26 unders. They are off a low scoring game against Madison Bumgarner and we see two pitchers (Kennedy and Vogelsong) that have ERA's in the 5.43 and 4.48 range.

Melvin Upton Jr. leads the Padres while Buster Posey is a perrenial all-star for the Giants.

I think we see 7+ runs on Wednesday.

10* over 7

10* under 194

I think we see another under. The last game was a push and now they travel back to Cleveland to play Game Xix in about 48 hours after the last game in California. Lebron has been scoring for the Cavs but others like Dellavedova, JR Smith, Mozgov and Thompson have been playing a lot of minutes with injuries to Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love.

Golden State has Curry, Klay Thompson, Harrison Barnes and others making some key shots lately but Cleveland wants to keep the game slow so they have a better chance to win.

10* under 194

Toronto at New York Mets

Monday 7pm

10* over 7.5

These two have combined for 64 overs and 52 unders. Both teams put up double digits on Sunday as Toronto won 13-5 to continue their win streak. Mark Buehrle has pitched well lately but has allowed 0, 4, 4, 2, 8 and 5 runs in his last few road starts. The New York Mets won 12-10 on Sunday and had five innings where they scored 2 or more runs. Syndergaard starts for the Mets, who are 23-11 at home. Toronto has scored 88 runs in their 11 game win streak, which is 8 runs per game. The Blue Jays have solid hitters like Josh Donaldson, Jose Bautista and Jose Reyes.  Hopefully, these two can play a 5-4 game on Monday night and help the total go over.

It does concern me that they will use National League rules without a DH but both teams have been hot and the ball should travel well with the temperature in the mid 80's.

Toronto 5

NYM 4

10* over 7.5 runs

10* under 5.5

The last two games have had totals of 5 but now we get a 5.5. I think we see a 3-2 game that stays under as both Crawford and the two TB goalies have been solid.

10* under 193

I think we see another under as Cleveland is not deep and is happy running down the clock and letting Lebron shoot. Curry and Thompson have not been hot yet as the Cavs are playing solid defense behind the 3-point line. I was impressed with David Lee coming in and scoring inside on Tuesday.

We would have 3 unders if not for overtime in Game One.

10* under 193

10* under 7

I think 7 is low for an American League total but think that is the right play as both starters are tough. Max Scherzer has an ERA of 1.85 (he is 2-1 with an ERA of 2.14 in his last 3) as he has allowed 4, 0, 1, 0 and 1 in his last five. Tanaka has an ERA of 4-1 with an ERA of 2.76 but is 3-0 with a super low ERA of 0.89 in his last 3 starts. Washington is just 2-8 in their last 10 and the Yankees have won 6 in a row. Hopefully, we see a 3-2 or 2-1 final score on Tuesday.

10* under 7 runs

10* over 5 goals

The opener stayed under with a 2-1 final. Tampa's five home games before that ended with 10, 6, 11, 5 and 8 goals scored. Chicago's three games before the opener reached 8, 7 and 9 goals. Chicago's games at Nashville totaled 7,8 and 7. Their games at Minnesota ended with 1 and 9 goals. Their three games at Anaheim made it to 5, 5 and 9.

I think things open up a little in Game Two and we see more goals and get an over. A 3-2 or 4-1 final gives us a push.

10* over 5 goals

Tulsa at Minnesota

8pm Friday

10* over 163

This is the opener for both teams. The preseason is over. The first two meetings last year ended with 187 and 176 points. Minnesota is one of the best teams in the WNBA and led by Maya Moore, who can score inside or outside and can make here free throws. They also have Lindsay Whalen, Seimone Augustus, Brunson and Dantas.

Tulsa was the worst team in the league a few years ago but is much better after adding Skylar Diggins from Notre Dame and Odyssey Sims from Baylor.

Hopefully, we get plenty of points on Friday and see an over.

10* over 163

10* under 203

The two teams will be off for over a week waiting to play in the finals. Golden State is known for offense but they have 7 unders and one push in home playoff games. In all playoff games they have 11 unders, 3 overs and one push. Cleveland's road playoff games have reached 195, 170, 167, 186 and 176 but those were against Chicago and Atlanta. Hopefully, we don't see OT and we get a low scoring game one on June 4.

10* over 8 runs

Jeremy Guthrie pitched poorly last start at Yankees Stadium and lasted just one inning. He did pitch well before that but his ERA is 6.72. These two have solid offenses as KC is led by Lorenzo Cain while the Indians have improved offensively after a slow start. Hopefully, both starters allow some runs and we get to close to 10 runs for an over.

10* under 6

6,7,2 and 4 are the amount of runs scored in Felix Hernandez home games. This game loses of we see a 4-3 score but I like our chances with it being 3-1 or so as the game will be played in the 50's. NY does have some solid hitters but the under has won 20-5-1 in Felix's last 26 games.

10* under 8

These two played a low scoring under yesterday. Tampa Bay and the Orioles have combined for 39 overs and 55 unders and Odorizzi has 1 over/9 unders. Hopefully, we see another under on Sunday.

10* under 5 goals

These two just played a 7-3 game at Tampa but the game before that at New York ended 2-0 as the Rangers were shutout at home.The opener to the series ended 2-1. The others did reach 8, 11 and 6 goals.

New York's game 7 with Washington was 2-1 in OT and their final game in the series with Pittsburgh was 2-1. Back in 2014 their game 7 with Philadelphia was 2-1 and their game 7 score with Pittsburgh was also 2-1. Their game 6 with Montreal ended 1-0. 

Both Ben Bishop and Henrik Lundquist can be solid defensive goalies. I won't be shocked to see an over. I can live with a 3-2 push but think we have a shot at the under with the pressure of Game 7 to get to the finals.

10* under 5 goals

over 8.5

NYY jumped ahead and won 14-1 yesterday. Led by Brian McCann. Gardner, Arod, Mark Texeira and company the Yankees played well. Even Chase Headley hit an early HR. The weather is hot in New York and the ball is traveling well. I expect KC to play better as they have the best record in the American League. The two starters have combined for 9 overs/4 unders this year. I think we get to 9 runs on Tuesday for an over.

10* over 8.5 runs

10* under 213

Golden State has played unders in 9 of its last 10 games. The last two with Houston have reached 195 and 197. The teams are 3-0 in games and playing Game 4 on Sunday so they will be familiar with each other and all three games have stayed under. Curry, Thompson and Green are solid for the visitors but both have played solid defense lately. Go with the under on Sunday.

10* over 8.5

Chris Capuano starts for the Yankees. He is 36 years old and has been on the DL. Texas has played well in the two games and put up 10 runs in one inning on Saturday. The New York pitching staff has an ERA of 6.69 in their last 9 games as they are 1-8 after a fast start. Texas has power from Prince Fielder while NY has Arod, Mark Teixiera and Beltran. I think we see close to 10 runs on Sunday as Texas starts Ygenvi Gallardo and he was hit hard in his last start.

10* over 8.5 runs

over 2.5

AC Milan has reached 5, 3, 3, 4 and 3 goals with their opponents in its last five while Torino has tallied 2, 6, 1, 4 and 3 in its last five. Hopefully we see a 2-1 final that gets to 3 goals and goes over.

10* over 2.5

over 5 goals

I think we get at least a push at 3-2. Anaheim is a goal scoring team at home so hopefully we see a 4-2 type of game that gets over 5.

10* over 5

10* under 8.5 runs

Cleveland vs. Chicago
Thursday
under 8.5 runs

They stayed under last night to make 13 unders in a row. Playing the under streak when they meet again on Thursday.

10* under 8

These two have played 12 unders in a row. Carlos Rodon starts for the home team and the Indians aren't used to his stuff. I am playing the streak until it ends. Hopefully we see a 4-3 type of game.

under 7.5

These two have played 11 unders in a row and under in 19 of the last 22 meetings. Last night's game ended 2-1. Bauer and Quintana pitched well recently and the White Sox are last in the American League in scoring runs. Hopefully, we see a 3-2 or 4-3 type of game on Tuesday night that stays under.

Cleve 3

CWS 4

10* under 7.5 runs

under 2.5

10* under 196

The 3 games so far have reached 187, 187 and 188. Memphis is up 2-1 in games and should continue to focus on Curry and Thompson outside. These two combined for 76 overs and 100 unders this year.

10* under 196.5

The first two meetings reached 187 points. These two combined for 20 more unders than overs.

10* under 7

Both starters have ERA's under 2 in their last 3 starts. They have combined to allow just 44 hits in 65 innings. Hopefully, we see a 3-2 type of game.

10' Over 8.5

They have combined for 27 overs and just 15 unders. They reached 19 & 11 runs in the first two games and the pitchers have combined for 6 overs and 2 unders.

I think we see close to 10 runs.

10' under 220

Dallas is down 3-0 in games and at home. They allowed 230 points and Harden scored 42. One previous game had just 210 and two regular season games were under200.

over 7

We got a push last night on the over but Saturday,'s game will be warmer and start at 4pm.Hopefully. the Mets can score a few runs.

10' over 7

over 7

These two played twice at YankeeStadium last May. They have combined for 21 overs and 10 unders. NYY scored 13 at Detroit in their last game. It does concern me that Degrom has thrown well in 2015.

10' over 6

Kershaw and Bumgarner are great pitchers but have 5 overs and just one under with high ERA's. Hopefully both can get to 3 runs.

Over the total

Sorry no writeup!

10' under 5

Both teams have seen their share of low scores lately and the season is almost over.

10' under the total

The last four meetings have stayed under. Both are in the top 11 in FG defense. I think we see a game in the 180's.

10' over 5.5

Dallas has played 6 overs in their last 7 games and has scored 21 goals in their last 4.

These two have played 15 overs in their last 21 meetings at Anaheim.

10' under 5.5

This should be alow scoring playoff type game as both are trying to make the playoffs. The Pens have some great offensive players but Ottawa is home and led by young goalie Andrew Hammond. I think we see a 2-1 or 3-2 final.

10' under 138.5

This game is played at New York's Madison Square Garden. ODU will focus on defense as they struggled on the road. There is a 30 second clock but I look for an under.

under 138.5

10' under 145

Duke has played 5 unders in a row. They are not deep and playing slower and focused on defense. This games total is 17points higher than the other one.

10' inder 138

ODU is undefeated at home. Trey Freeman did not score in their win over Ill St on Monday. The game ended with just 99 points. ODU plays good defense and Trey won't be 100%.

10' over 116.5

MSU has played 7-1 overs in their last 8 and these two reached 120 last year. UVA's last two were 138 with UNC and 146 with Belmont.

I think we see 120+ with Anderson back.

10' under 135'

This is an early start and even with the 30 second clock I think we see an under.

10' over 132'

UNC will dictate pace with better athletes and be happy to see an Ivy team and not ACC players. Harvard scored 153 combined with MSU last year.

10' under the total

Both canscore but this is set in Dayton on a neutral floor with First Four pressure. All it takes is one team struggling for an under.

10* under 146

Oregon games averaged 144 ppg while AZ was at 136. Both teams played games that stayed well under this total on Friday. The Wildcats are a good defensive team. They are playing their third game in 3 days. Oregon can run and gun at home against weak teams but not vs. this solid Wildcats team.

10* under 146

10' over 122

The last two meetings ended with 137 points. Tar Heelswill foul late if down. It is the lowest total for a UNC game under Roy Williams.

Under 134.5

The ACCT has seen their share of overs so far but thesetwo have played recently and know each other. VT is mostly freshmen pkaying theur furst tourbet.

under 134.5

10' under 200

Dallas has played 11 unders in a row. Combined for for 48 overs and 80 unders.

10' Under 202

Dallas has played 10 unders in a row mainly due to pg Rajon Rondo as he plays solid defense and slows downthe game with his pace.

over 139

These two have combined fot 29 overs and just 15 unders.

10* over 113.5

These two managed to play a game in the 130's at UVA last year. Both play solid defense and have had their share of low scores. UVA allowed GT to score just 28 and Harvard struggled. However, FSU has some decent guards, led by Xander Mayes-Hyphen who scored 35 at UNC.

Virginia has some decent scorers like Malcolm Brogden, Mike Tobey and Anthony Gil. Darien Adkins is solid inside as well. Justin Anderson is out but the Cavaliers are good shooting 3's.

10* over 113.5

East vs. West (NBA All-Star Game)
8:30pm EST
5* under 296

Hopefully, this line will go up and you can get under 296 or more but I see it at 295.5 early Sunday morning. These games feature plenty of points with not much defense. And there are very few foul shots but lots of dunks. Sometimes, we see the teams take pride in being on the East or West squad.

All we need is a slow part of one quarter and we have a 150-143 game that stays under by a few points. Small play on the under set for Sunday night.

5* under 296

I think we see an over in this night game seen on espnu. There is good chance of ot.Mcclelland and Rodriguez score for Mismi while Clemson has Blossomgame and Hall and Grantham.

The total is so low all we need is a 61-59 game.

over the total

10* over 48.5

Both teams can score and it will be at a warm weather venue in Glendale, Arizona. QB Tom Brady is a future Hall Of Famer and Russell Wilson won a Super Bowl last year over Denver. NE should learn from the mistakes Peyton Manning and Denver made last year. Lynch is a solid runner for the Seahawks.

10* over 48.5 points

10* under 5.5

I think we see a 3-2 final score so take the under.

Sunday:

NFL Pro Bowl
Carter/Irvin
10* under 67.5

Past Pro Bowls have been high scoring games when AFC played NFC but last year's game was led by captains Jerry Rice and Deion Sanders. It is 22-21 (43 points) as they played hard to win. The rules favor the offense so there should be plenty of points. 87, 100, 96, 75 and 51 points were scored in previous years before last year. We can see a 35-31 game and still win with the under.

Thanks and GL on Sunday!

10* under 67.5

10* under 199.5

Kendall Marshall is out with an injury. Milwaukee just played in London on Thursday and returned home to face Toronto. The Bucks have played 11 unders in a row and should have tired legs. I hope it effects their offense and not their defense.

Let's hope the streak continues to stay under.

10* under 199.5

over 155

I was looking at playing the under at first but Iona is a good offensive team that has played overs in 14 of their last 19 Friday games and these two played over 200 last year at Iona and 90-89 at Niagara last year.

Iona gets 20.8 from English, Lanz gets 20, Williams 14.5 and Casimir 14 ppg. They are one of a few teams that get 20 points per game from two players.

Go with the over on Friday ay night.

10* over 155

under 133

Davidson and UVA played last year and we saw a game with 127 points and that was at Davidson and now they play at UVA. Davidson lost by 18 vs. UNC and now plays another ACC team that likes to play defense and it is at an odd time.

I think we see a game with 125 to 130 points and an under.

10* under 133

10* under 45

This line was 46 earlier in the week and I liked that better for obvious reasons. However, most places now have it at 44 or 45, which is low for a college game. Both teams like to run the ball and play solid defense. Arkansas played a 14-13 game with high powered Alabama, the team that is favored to win it all in the playoff.

I think we see a 24-16 type of game that stays under by a few points. Take the under as our Top Toal for Monday in college football action.

10* under 45

under 54

San Diego State has played 1 over this weason and the just were unders. They played Air Force (another service academy that likes to run) and beat them easily. The defeated Navy a few years ago 35-14 (49 points) and like to trun the ball themselves. The SDSU QB struggled to throw the ball as he had about 11 TD's and int's so the Aztecs stick with running the ball, which keeps the close going.

Navy had 4 overs and 7 unders and is led by QB Keenan Reynolds and he is key for this game staying under. If he can run and make some nice passes then the Navy has a chance to win and put up points.

SDSU coach Rocky Long has a solid 3-3-5 defense that should be prepared for the Navy run game. I think we see under on Tuesday night.

10* under 54

under 135

This total did drop a few points and Kenpom has it making it to 138. However, Saint Mary's has played under in 13 of its last 16 and under in 24 of its last 33 road games. Saint John's has played 0 overs, 5 unders and one push this year. Steve Lavin's Red Storm has played unders in 8 of its last 10 Friday games. Hopefully, both teams play solid defense and we don't see overtime and the under wins the cash.

10* under 135

10* under 59.5

#303/304 (Army/Navy)

3pm Saturday

These two are used to each others plays. The last 8 meetings have stayed under the total reaching 41, 30, 48, 48, 20, 34, 41 and 40 points combined. When Army played Air Force it was 23-6 (29 points) while the Air Force Navy meeting ended with 51 points.

Navy QB Keenan Reynolds is a great runner and his play should decide if this go over or not. Army's last two have reached 73 and 76 while Navy's have made it to 82, 71, 88, 72 and 65 and that does concern me but I think the teams know each other's running attack and suggest the under at 59.5.

10* under 59.5

over 115

This is a very low total. I don't expect Columbia to score too many points but think the home team can put up 75+. Maybe we get a 74-44 game and reach 118. That isn't asking too much for the #1 ranked team in the nation to go over 115 points led by the Harrison twins, Willie Cauley-Stein and Karl Townes and Alex Poythesis.

John Calipari does stress defense and Columbia did have 17 unders in a row a few years ago but I think we have a solid chance for an over which is set at 115.

10* over 115

10* ECU/UNC over 142

Both teams are off losses. The Tar Heels lost at home to Iowa and only scored 55 points and now face East Carolina, who are coached by former UNC guard Jeff Lebo. When these two played two year ago we saw a 93-87 (180 points) game. And ECU's game with Wes Miller's (former UNC guard) UNC Greensboro ended 85-84.

Teams are playing a zone against UNC and forcing them to shoot outside and only Marcus Paige is solid from behind the arc (he did miss a  late 3 to tie against Iowa and he played high school hoops in Iowa).

ECU played a 99-81 game with UNCW and 83-79 with UNCA and 148 points with Hawaii. They just playing a game with FAU that ended with 135 points. ECU is led by Tyson 16 ppg, White at 14 (43% 3's and 92% FT) and Whisnant 11 ppg. Hopefully, someone can get hot and they can reach the mid 60's. And hopefully, they play man to man to allow Kennedy Meeks and Brice Johnson to score inside.

UNC plays at Kentucky next Saturday so I expect this to be a fun game and get Paige, Meeks, Brice Johnson, Tokoto, Justin Jackson, etc. some scoring opportunities in a faster paced game that UNC likes to play.

All we need is a 82-64 type of game to get an over.

10* over 142

10* over 133.5

This total at 133.5 seems to low for me to open the ACC season. It has moved up at some books to 135. Both are off losses in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. The last two years these two have seen 82-67 (149) points scored last year in Raleigh and two years ago was 81-66 (147 points). Wake Forest did play a home game with Iona that ended with 166 as both were in the 80's.

Wake is led by Codi Miller-McIntyre at 11 ppg, Thomas 10 points and 10 rebs, Mitoglu at 8 ppg and several at 7 points.

NCSU is led by Turner, Barber and Lacey. They played a 84-72 (156 points) game at home with Richmond.

These teams know each other as they are located in the middle of the state and hopefully, they play a fast paced game and Wake Forest can make some 3's and we see some FT's made.

Thanks and good luck this weekend!

10* over 133.5

under 72.5

Both teams can score quickly and have great QB's as Oregon signal caller Marcus Mariotta is leading for the Heisman Trophy. Solomon of the Wildcats is solid as well. However, this game is for the Pac 12 conference title and plenty of pressure and played on a neutral field.

The first meeting this year saw a 31-24 final that reached just 55 points. The two previous meetings made it to 58 and 49 points. We did see a 56-31 score four years ago.

Arizona had 4 overs and 8 unders in 2014 while the Ducks had 6 overs, 5 unders and a push.

Hopefully, we see some decent defense and a score in the 60's that stays under.

10* under 72.5

over 149.5

UNC likes to play fast and got to the 150's with Robert Morris at home and 90-72 (162) with Davidson in Charlotte. This is a high total as Iowa avergaes 130 ppg while UNC is at 146. Games in the Bahamas did go over but had low totals for Tar Heel games.

White, Uthoff and Woodbury are the top scorers for Iowa and they have three starters averaging over 50% from the field. UNC is led by Marcus Paige, Kennedy Meeks and Brice Johnson.

Iowa did score 90 vs. Hampton and 86 with NDSU. Hopefully, they can make some shots, hit 3's and we get late FT's and into the 150's.

10* over 149.5

10* over the total

I was hoping to get a 5.5 but 6 is ok.

These two have combined for 23 overs and just 15 unders this year and the last 4 meetings have seen total goals of 7, 10, 7 and 7.

Hopefully we see a 4-3 type of score or atl least get a push.

10* over 6

10* over 134

Both teams are off big losses yesterday ad playing their third game in 4 days. ODU was just 2/17  from 3's and has just 4 points at the 10 minute mark. ODU lost and scored just 45 points and now play a team that is fast paced and their games average 154 ppg. ODU has reached 70 vs. LSU (and were just 11-23 at the FT line). They scored 76 vs. UNCW. Their home game with Richmond is a rivalry that reached 120.

ODU is getting 19 ppg from Trey Freeman and he shoots 92% from the line. Ambrose Mosley is shooting just 28% but can get hot. Richard Ross is at 11 ppg and shoots 62% FG and is an inside threat. Arledge is at 8 ppg but did have 19 vs. UNCW. Palmore, Bacote, Baker and Nik Biberaj contribute for Jeff Jones' Monarchs.

Gardner Webb is known as the Runnin'Bulldogs and their games have seen 152, 142, 147 and 175 this year and going back to last year they saw 169, 146, 154, 154 and a high scoring OT game. The two before that reached 135 and 120 and they were road games.

GW is led by Hill at 17 ppg and Tsenior PG Tyler Strange at 14 ppg and 7.4 assists. Nelson is at 14 ppg and shoots 55% FG and Davis 12 ppg.

If ODU can make some early shots and get into a running game this should reache the upper 130's or higher. I like our chances for an over.

10* ODU/GW over 134

under 69

45, 52 and 30 points have been scored in ECU's last 3 games. They lost 20-10 at Temple in the cold, rain and some wind.  ECU did put up 70 vs. UNC at home but now goes to Cincy and trying to bounce back from an UGLY loss on the road and must try to play better on offense led by QB Shane Carden (a senior), RB Breon Allen (injured and not 100%) and WR Justin Hardy. The Bearcats played a game in the 70's vs. Miami but I think these two will play some defense trying to move up in the conference standings.

10* under 69

under 5.5

Colorado has 3 overs to go with 9 unders and these two have seen 63% of their last 15 meetings stay under the total with some pushes thrown in. I think we see a 3-2 final score so take the under and hope for no empty net goals if it is 3-2 late in the 3rd.

10* under 5.5

over 43

This could end 37-7 or 30-14 and make it over. Seattle is off a low scoring game at Carolina but others reached 52, 51, 46, 44, 53 and 54 while Oakland has played 31-28 with San Diego and 38-14 with Miami.

10* over 43

under 56.5

These two played a 21-10 game back on November 2, 2013. Ga Tech is off a wild, high scoring loss at UNC which ended 48-43 and now they focus on a defensive team. The GT game with Duke had 56 points, 45 with Miami, 51 with Va Tech. Pitt has seen 37 with Va Tech, 43 with UVA, 31 with Akron, 44 with Iowa and 50 with BC. They did reach 67 with FIU.

GT has seen 4 unders in their last 4 vs. winning teams. Pitt has played GT before and will be prepared with their schemes. Take the under on Saturday afternoon.

10* under 56.5

under 79.5

I like to play unders in weekday games since there is more focus on the team and either Cal or Oregon will step up on defense. The Ducks are led by Heisman hopeful Marcus Mariota at QB and a decent defense that could hold down the Bears. We could see a 50-24 game that stays below the total by a few points. These two have played unders in 6 of the last 7 meetings and I think we see under 79.5on Friday.

10* under 79.5

under 47.5

I think we see an under as Dallas is off a win at Seattle. NYG lost at Philly and did not score. Both teams have solid QB's but their defense should not be surprised by what the offenses do.

10* under 47.5

under 5.5 goals

I think we see a 3-2 type of game on Thursday. Some books may drop this down to 5 but most have it at 5.5.

Colorado 2

10* under 5.5

Opening Night is here. The Flyers were known for overs two years ago. Boston is a solid team on defense and saw plenty of 5's rather than 5.5's last year. I think we see a 3-2 game that gets to 5 goals and hopefully, we don't see an empty netter!

Phil 2

Boston 3

10* under 5.5

This is the only game scheduled for Sunday as the regular season is almost here. Both teams are off wins and will not want to risk injuries at this time so I think we see an under today. My guess is 3-2.

Free Pick on under 5.5 goals.

Be sure to check out RED DOG SPORTS for hockey picks this winter as they were 58-26 for $11,190 profit back in 2013, which was #1 at THE SPORTS MONITOR.

Monday:

NFL
10* New England at KC
under 47

New England played a 16-9 game last week at home with Oakland.
Tom Brady is a great QB but has struggled so far this year. The last 4 meetings have stayed under and KC's last 5 Monday night games have gone under. Let's hope Brady doesn't go wild this week on national TV.

Thanks and GL on Monday.

10* under 47 points

over 159

Phoenix may be without Griner, who is less than 2 days off of eye surgery. The Mercury should just rest her since they are up 2-0 in games. Chicago has lost the first 2 games badly at Phoenix and now they play at UIC due to a concert at their regular venue. Elena Delle Donne should score 20+ and Sylvia Fowles should score inside. Phoenix still has Taurasi and Bonner and Taylor to score. Griner is a great defensive presence and without her, it's be easier for Chicago inside.

10* over 159

under 160

Minnesota and Phoenix meet for Game Three of their series on Tuesday night. All the key players like Maya Moore, Brunson, Augustus, Whalen, Bonner, Dupree, Griner and Taurasi played 33+ minutes and should have tired legs. They have reacehd 159 and 156 points so far in the two games.

Trends:

*Minnesota under 9-4 last 13 games

*under 10-2 last 12 meetings

*Phoenix under 23-9-1 last 33 home games (7 overs/12 unders this year).

10* under 160

under 8 runs

Volquez of the Pirates has an ERA of 1.42 in his last 3 starts while Milwaukee's Willy Peralta's ERA is also in the 1.42 range for that span. I think we see a 4-2 or 4-3 type of game that stays under on Saturday.

Pitt 3

10* under 8 runs

10* under 164.5

Both teams played last night and lost. They both played overs and allowed plenty of points. The Tulsa game included a quarter where the Shock scored just 6 points. The regular season ends on Sunday. Maya Moore and the Lynx won the title last year so they know how to do things. They can play solid defense even though Tulsa can score and allow points. I think we see low 160's or 150's on Saturday so take the under.

10* under 164.5

under 164.5

Tulsa has played their share of overs on the road but the season is winding down and there are just about two games left for each team. Tulsa does have Skylar Diggins and Odyssey Sims (who hasn't been 100%) and the Dream are led by all-WNBA forward Angel McCoughtry. I won't be shocked to see a game in the upper 160's but like the under on Friday night.

10* under 164.5

under 144

This is a low total but the season is winding down and there should be some tired legs. NYL has seen 15 unders in the last 21 on the road while Indiana has 7 unders in the last 9 at home. Indy has seen 15 unders in the last 21 on Thursday. The two meetings in 2014 saw 136 and 166 points.

Look for a game that reaches about 140 and stays under on Thursday.

10* under 144

under 160.5

Phoenix played last night and had a low scoring game. The first meeting reached 142 points. The Mercury have 14 unders, 6 overs and one push in their last 21 on the road and they have 6'8" Britney Griner inside to block shots and rebound. The regualr season is aboot one week ago and Phoenix is not deep and will be happy to play a game in the 150's and an under.

10* under 153

The first meeting only reached 141 points. The last 9 meetings have seen 6 unders, 2 overs and a push. Phoenix has 14 unders, 6 overs and one push in its last 21 on the road while the home team (Liberty( has 15 unders, 6 overs and a push in its last 22 on Tuesday. The season is winding down and New York plays solid defense and they have two former players that were once on the Mercury.

Tulsa at Seattle (9pm)

#609/610

10* over 153.5

Seattle has 9 overs and 6 unders at home while Tulsa has 11 overs and 2 overs at home. The last few road games have seen 186 at LA, 159 at Washington, 188 at San Antonio and 175 at Minnesota. They are led by Skylar Diggins and Kayla McBride. Tusla is just 12-19 while Seattle is just 11-20 but off a nice 20 point win at home over Atlanta.

Seattle has won two in a row at home with Little, Sue Bird, Stricklen, Langhorne, Wright and Johnson providing points. The game vs. San Antonio was just 71-65 but there should be opportunities for points on Sunday.

10* over 153.5

under 165.5

San Antonio just played an OT game at home and lost to Phoenix (and it stayed under even with the extra five minutes). Tulsa has played 19 overs/10 unders but 8-8 (over/under) at home and 11 overs/2 unders on the road.

SA now must head to Tulsa and face the Shock and the last 3 home games for the home team have reached 159, 160 and 154. These two have played some high scores but both will need to scores 21 points per quarter to get the over.

All it takes is an 18-14 quarter and it stays under.

10* under 165.5

over 37

Here are the QB rotations:

QB Rotations: DAL - B. Weeden, C. Hanie, D. Vaughan
SD - P. Rivers, K. Clemens, B. Sorensen

The Cowboys will be without QB Tony Romo and will try to put points on the board while San Diego has shown they can score in preseason games last year.

I think we see a 24-17 type of game that reaches 40 to 41 points and over.

10* over 37 points

under 164.5

Phoenix has played 3 unders in a row and has 6 unders in its last 8 home games. The Mercury is not a deep team and depend on Diana Taurasi, Britney Griner, Penny Taylor, Candace Dupree and Dewanna Bonner for minutes.

They face the best team from the east and one of the few winning teams in the WNBA (besides Minnesota). Angel McCoughtry and de Souza are solid players for the Dream but 164.5 is a high total. One quarter of 35 points could head this in the direction of an under.

Phoenix does have 6'8" Griner inside to block shots which helps an under.

10* under 164.5

under 166

The two best teams in the WNBA meet on Thursday night. Phoenix is 22-3 and 10-2 on the road. Their games average 160 ppg and they are led by future Hall Of Famer Diana Taurasi, 6'8" center Britney Greiner, Penny Taylor, Dupree and Bonner. Griner blocks close to 3 shots per game.

Minnesota has had some injuries and that may affect chemistry but they did win the title last year. They are led by possibly the best player in the league (Maya Moore), Simeone Augustus, Whalen, McCarville and White. Moore scores 21 ppg and plays solid defense. The Lynx games average 162 ppg.

Phoenix has wom both games this year. 80-72 (152) at Minnesota and 92-79 (171) at their place. The teams have played 7 unders in the last 8 meetings. I expect to see some good defense and one team try to make a statement. All it takes is one slow quarter and we have a game in the low 160's and under.
