Yale has been on fire, winning 17 of their last 18 games. They are very well coached and their style of play is the type that will keep them in games, especially in the NCAA Tourney. Yale plays a half court style offense that is extremely efficient and fantastic defense. They are only giving up 63.5 points per game. I believe the key number in this game in 70. When Baylor scores less than 70 points, they haven't covered the spread once, going 0-10 against the number. The Baylor Bears also haven't been a great team on the road this season as they have a negative point differential when traveling.

Tulsa +4.5

I'll start with this; Whenever ESPN, CBS, or any of the experts on TV single out the worst team in the Tournament that doesn't deserve to be there, that team usually does really well their first game. We've actually seen that team make decent runs in prior years. UCLA last year was panned by everyone and they went on and won 2 games. A few years back, I specifically remember Jay Bilas being outraged that VCU was in the tourney. They wound up getting the play in game for an 11 seed. They ended up reaching the Final Four. Tulsa should come out with a GIGANTIC chip on their shoulders, ready to prove everybody wrong.

There's no surprise that the public loves Michigan right now. They're a big name school and everyone's talking about how easy it's going to be for them to win this game. I don't think its going to be that easy. Michigan relies heavily on the jump shot and Tulsa is actually the 8th best team in the field in turnover margin. Tulsa is also 5-0 ATS facing a team with a winning percentage of .600+ and Michigan is just 1-4 ATS in that same spot. Personally, I think Tulsa should win this game outright, but we'll gladly take the points here.

North Florida +7.5

It's big brother vs. little brother in this match up of Florida teams. The Gators are the #2 seed and the Ospreys are the #7 seed, yet North Florida will be playing at home. This is a HUGE deal. This game is eerily similar to the Kentucky/Robert Morris game in the NIT a few years ago when Noel was apart of the Wildcats. Kentucky was -8 (just like this game) but they had to play at Robert Morris with the ESPN cameras there. Robert Morris was ROCKING and they absolutely punished a team that just simply wasn't motivated to play in the NIT. I expect the same exact thing to happen in this one.

50* One & Only CBB GAME OF THE YEAR

Temple +3.5

How on earth can the Huskies not suffer a letdown here? We were on the Huskies Friday afternoon so I watched every moment of that amazing game. One thing that is a HUGE problem for UConn is their inability to close out ball games. Their struggles in the final 2 minutes were the reason this game went quadruple OT in the first place. It did make for an incredible game as UConn needed an miraculous full court shot to send the game to the 4th extra session. Now when you think about that, each OT is 5 minutes long. 4 overtimes=20 minutes. Connecticut had to play 1 and half basketball games Friday and now have to play another game less than 24 hours later. These players legs have got to feel like Jello. Tired legs lead to jump shot coming up short and poor defensive efforts. What benefits us here is that Temple got to be on cruise control against a bad South Florida squad, so the Owls should be in good shape for this one, well more so than UConn. According to Joe Lunardi, with a win yesterday, Connecticut would make it to the NCAA Tournament. The players know this. It's not the end of the world if they lose this game. The Cincy game was the must win and they got it. UPDATE: Now Joe Lunardi is saying UConn needs a win here. I still like Temple. I still think UConn will make the Tourney if they lose.

I couldn't believe Temple was the underdog here, especially a TWO possession dog. I was expecting the Owls to be a short favorite in this one. In my opinion, clearly the wrong team is favored. Just from a stand point on how each team plays against great competition (teams above .600) the Owls are much better and are the exact opposite against the spread than the Huskies. Temple is 7-2 ATS and UConn is 2-7 ATS. The Huskies are also 0-4 ATS their last 4 meetings against the Owls. Temple has won the money in 4 straight neutral site games.

The Fighting Irish have been practicing with a 20 second shot clock. I will paraphrase Mike Brey's quote but he said that moving fast will help Jackson and we may take bad shots but we're going to play downhill and roll. Looking for a ton of easy buckets in transition. You know who also likes to get out in transition and play fast...UNC. This game should be played up and down and as long as one of these teams don't go on a scoring drought like Duke did yesterday (even though it still went over), this should soar over.

Kansas -6.5

The Jayhawks, arguably, are playing the best basketball in the country right now. They have also OWNED the Baylor Bears in recent history. The Jayhawks are 7-0 SU and 6-0-1 ATS against them. Bill Self and company's average margin of victory is 11 points per game against the Baylor Bears and the Bears have lost by 10+ points on the road or on a neutral site to them as well. Talk about total domination of an opponent. I simply don't like this Baylor team and if this Kansas train gets rolling, watch out. Baylor has had awful numbers offensively against this Kansas team.

Huge revenge angle here for the Gaels as they have lost both meetings this season to Pepperdine. It's extremely hard to beat a team 3 times in one season, especially when that team has much more talent. Pepperdine is just 1-4 ATS their last 5 Conference games and 1-4 ATS their last 5 neutral site contests.

40* CBB BLOWOUT GAME OF THE WEEK

Indiana -5

In my opinion, the Indian Hoosiers have one of, if not the best, home field advantages in the land. This team is 16-0 at home and are outscoring opponents by 23.9 points per game. The Hoosiers are also 8-2 ATS facing a team with a winning percentage of .600 or better. 

Maryland has been sputtering lately, as they have lost 3 of their last 5 games. They did however win their last game in blowout fashion but that was to a bad Illinois team. This actually works to our advantage as Maryland is 7-19 ATS their next game after winning their previous game by 20+ points. Bottomline in this game is that Maryland doesn't travel well and they have to go into one of the hardest places to play basketball against a team that thrives on their home court. If Indiana can drain their shots from the perimeter, this will be a very long day for the Terrapins.

Note to the all the new subscribers:

Plays are released throughout the day. For instance, we could have 2 plays by 12:00pm EST then 3 more plays be added by 5:00pm EST. My point is that to always make sure to check back before the 6:45 EST deadline to release picks to see if there is any late breaking news or late added releases. We typically do have at least one late release each day because of late information given from sources and seeing how the final money tally goes before the games go off.

I would like to say thanks to all you guys and I really appreciate you putting your trust in Don Anthony Sports.

50* ACC GAME OF THE YEAR

Notre Dame -2

Another one of those spreads where the unranked team is favored against an AP Top 10 team. We've had a ton of success taking the favorite in this situation and we're going to do it again. I expect the Fighting Irish to bounce back in a big way tonight as they come off their worst performance of the season against Florida State. Notre Dame has been a fantastic home team, going 13-1, and have been covering machines following straight up and spread losses. They are 5-0 ATS following a straight up loss and 6-0 following a spread loss. Notre Dame also hasn't lost back-to-back games since 2013 and they have gone 68 straight games without doing so. That is simply incredible. This game is mega important for the Irish as they can still get a top 4 seed for the ACC tournament if they win out. Given the added motivation of revenge from an earlier loss to Miami, Notre Dame should roll.

50* MAC GAME OF THE YEAR

Ohio -3

One of my closest sources, that follows the Mid-American Conference extensively, has this as his favorite play in the conference this season. We definitely agree as this is a fantastic spot for the Bobcats. EVERY trend there is all over Ohio tonight and fades Bowling Green. The Bobcats have covered the number in 5 straight games and in conference, and they are 6-0 ATS facing a team with a losing record. They also have huge revenge from a prior meeting this year as they lost as double digit favorites to Bowling Green. I don't see them taking them lightly this time around and they definitely had this game circled.

The Falcons have failed to cover the number in 7 straight games and in conference. They are also 0-7 ATS facing a team with a winning record and 0-6 ATS their last 6 games at home. Simply put, the Bobcats are hot and the Falcons are not. The road team has covered the spread in 6 of the last 7 meetings between these teams so Ohio should not be intimated playing on the road and they should roll tonight.  

Best of luck to us tonight and remember to always use proper money management.

Florida -4.5

Big time revenge spot here for the Gators as they lost to Vandy on the road just a few weeks back. Florida's furious come back came up just short as they lost by one single point. That is important in this game as Vanderbilt just got by Florida and that was on their home floor where they have a huge advantage with the raised floor. Vanderbilt is not a good team on the road and that should show here tonight. 

Vanderbilt is just 2-8 straight up (3-7 ATS) on the year as the visitors. This shows that HFA is huge for this team. They are also terrible against the better teams in the league. Vandy has covered just once in 9 tries facing a team with a winning percentage above .600, and have failed to win against the spread in 7 straight following a spread covered their previous game. The Commodores are too inconsistent.

Florida has been playing great on their home floor as they are 12-2 this year. Florida has also been great covering the number off a straight up loss, going 5-1 in that spot. The biggest weakness for Florida is that they can go through offensive droughts at times, but they are much better at managing that on their home court and given the fact that this is their second time seeing Vandy this year, they should be able to make the necessary improvements to avoid those droughts tonight.

50* BIG-12 GAME OF THE YEAR

West Virginia (WVU) -2.5

The Oklahoma Sooners are in big trouble. The lack of depth for this team is starting to show late in the season. This team has now lost 3 of their last 4 games and could very easily be 0-4. The Sooners have also been dreadful on the road. This team has now been upset by Texas Tech and Kansas State. Come on now...I believe this team has become vastly over-rated. Oklahoma has been awful in their current spot and against the spread recently. They are just 1-5 ATS their last 6 on the road, 1-6 ATS off a straight up loss, and 0-5 ATS facing a team with a winning record. What's one of the worst places to go when you are struggling? Yeah, its Morgantown WV. 

The Mountaineers will make you work for every possession. They are the best at turning you over and playing very physical defense. This place will be ROCKING after every turnover that leads to a transition bucket. I mean it's going to be deafening. That's one thing about my alma mater, those fans know how to go nuts. WVU is 8-1 ATS following a straight up loss and they are 13-3 ATS their last 16 home games. As long as Oklahoma doesn't go berserk from the perimeter, the Mountaineer's will roll.

UCLA -1

Here we go again. Another one of those spreads that look like something's up. These spreads where the "better team" is the underdog and the "worse team" is favored, the favorite has been covering at an insane rate lately. Still kicking myself for not making St. Joes last night a top play, but I digress.

Utah is 19-7 and UCLA is 14-11, yet the Bruins are favored. Most people are going to line up all day to take the Utes here. The problem with backing the Utes is that the are not the same team on the road. This team benefits greatly from their HFA (home-field advantage.) Utah is just 3-5 away from home this year. They have lost 2 straight and 3 of those 5 losses have come by more than double digits. This is extremely important as the last 6 meetings between these two clubs, the home team has covered all 6 times. This is also a tough spot for Utah as they come off crushing a terrible WSU team and the Utes are just 2-5 ATS their last 7 games following a win of 20+ points.

UCLA needs a big win badly. They have struggled a bit lately but they were in the middle of a tough scheduling spot. 5 of their last 7 games, which includes 3 straight, have been away from their building. They are in a desperate need of some home cooking. After playing 3 straight games on the road and returning home, the Bruins are 6-1 ATS their last 7. The Bruins have the length to give Poeltl and company some trouble down low and that is where most of Utes success comes from. The crowd should give the Bruins a huge boost tonight and this should propel them to the victory tonight.

Best of luck to us tonight and always remember to use proper money management
