I backed Utah the other night against UCLA in a winner and will ride the momentum here again vs USC.  They are still on the outside looking in for the Tournament but another big win here would go along ways and I think they get another one.  Utah is 12-2 at home and have won 5 straight games 

I really think this is a key game for Virginia Tech for the NCAA Tournament.  A win here would give give them 21 wins and double digit conference wins which is hard to leave out.  I know they have Duke on deck,but they every win matters right now for them.  Louisville is just 2-5 SU their last 7 games. 

I really like this spot to back Maryland here as they are on the outside looking in for the NCAA Tournament.  This would be a huge win for them to get to 20 wins on the year and 9-9 in conference play.  Michigan has nothing to play for here as they cant win the conference, but have already secured a first round bye in the conference tournament 

I would normally say this spot would be weird because it's one of those stand alone road games on a back to back spot.  However, though I think it's different now given that the Cavs lost at home last night to the Wizards without Wall.  That should wake this team up here and I think they will bounce back with a big effort

I like Indiana here to wrap up their final game of the season with a big win and momentum into the Big Ten tournament.  Indiana is playing well to finish 4-1 SU their last 5 games.  They will be seeking revenge here as Ohio St 56% from the field and Indiana only 36%.  Those will change given home court advantage.  Also Ohio St is having a great year, but they are just an average team on the road with a 7-5 SU record 

The Celtics have me a little worries right now.  They went into All Star breaking losing 3 straight homes and 4 of their last 5 overall.  I think we will see the Pistons as a play on team here the 2nd half of the season trying to make the playoffs.  They are currently sitting in the 9 spot.  

Utah is a team that no one is talking about right now.  They might be on the outside looking in for the tournament but they have 3 straight home games remaining and 2 will be quality wins starting with this one tonight.  Utah is 11-2 at home and are 4-1 their last 5 games.  I also think UCLA careered it against them in the first game making 12 threes.  

Houston has really been playing well and they had a huge signature win over Cincy 2 games back.  Now they are ranked and with that comes some inflated lines.  They were only favored by 3 over Temple their last game and I think Memphis and Temple are the same team.  Now though they are laying 7?  Memphis was only an 8.5 point dog at home to Wichita St.  I think this is a big over reaction 

Well, its been a pretty disappointing end to the season for Northwestern, but on senior night I think there will be enough emotion here to put forth a big effort.  I also think Wisconsin is being a little over valued here covering 4 of their last 5 games.  This Wisconsin team is 2-10 SU on the road this season 

I know Howard is out tonight for Marquette, but this team showed a lot last game after he went down.  He only played 16 minutes, but they still held on for a big win @ Creighton keeping their tournament chances alive.  They cant afford another loss to St Johns like they did 11 days ago.  In that game St Johns shot 60% from the field which won't happen again tonight.  

I think the injuries now might be starting to take their tole on Clemson.  They are off a physical game with Duke as they clawed their way back into it but came up short.  It will be hard here to match the intensity I think VT will play with.  A win here and the Hokies are in the dance for sure so you dont have to question motivation especially since this will be their first home game after 3 road games.  

I really like Penn St a lot here in this match up for several reason.  First, this is senior night so their final home game of the season.  Penn St is playing great with their only two recent losses coming @ Michigan St and @ Purdue they covered both and probably should have won one of those.  Penn St is playing for their NCAA tournament berth.  Getting 10 conference wins in the magical number. I also think big let down spot for Michigan who is coming off beating Ohio St which I had Sunday.  

We all know the betting public will be all over UNC here because they are playing very good.  I just think all the motivation and everything else lies with Cuse here.  Their tournament bid is at stake here with this game its plain and simple.  I trust that they will be ready and the dome will for sure be rocking tonight.  

Even though Kentucky isn't the team we are use to seeing, it doenst matter for these schools as they have dominated this conference for so long.  Kentucky still has the names and these teams get up for them regardless.  I had Arkansas last game as an easy winner over Texas AM.  They are 14-1 at home 4-1 their last 5.  I also had Kentucky in a winner their last game over Bama snapping their 4 game losing streak.  Kentucky just 4-7 on the road.

This is another line here that I thought should be higher.  I think to much is being put into that Nebraska lost at Illinois.  Nebraska has been just a great home team with a 14-1 record and their only loss was to Kansas by 1.  Indiana is playing better as of late, but they are beating up on the bottom feeders in the conference.  The Hooisers have shot over 55% from the field for 3 straight games that is highly unlikely to continue. 

No choice but to take the Aggies here after coming up short in their last two games on the road.  Miss St is a team that has played very well at home this season and pretty bad on the road with a 2-7 road record.  After what looked like a promising start to the season the Aggies have struggled during conference play. I think they bounce back here with a big performance as they are 12-2 at home this season

I'm very confused to why this line has flipped.  I thought Baylor would be -4.5 considering they are one of the hottest teams in the country right now winning 5 straight games.  West Virginia has really fallen off here just 3-5 SU their last 8 games.  Those wins came against Kansas St, Oklahoma who is awful right now and TCU who is banged up.  I'm not impressed, but as mentioned shocked at this line maybe someone knows more than I do, but Baylor also has the revenge angle as well 

Butler ended their 3 game losing streak with a nice 15 point win over Providence.  I think they get the best of Creighton as they lost by 11 in the first meeting.  Butler was ice cold from distance that game only making 4 threes shooting 28%.  Really have to question where Creighton is right now after a bad performance against Marquette at home.  They haven't covered 5 straight games and have a huge look ahead with Nova coming to town 

We are going to back Notre Dame here who knows they have to start playing some good ball because they are a big question mark come tournament time.  If the committee takes into large consideration the injuries they will be in, but that being said they still need to win games.  they have won 3 of their last 4 only loss being at red hot North Carolina.  Miami is going the other direction losing 3 straight and are just 1-7 ATS their last 8 games. 

Cincy laid an egg on the road last game @ Houston which they were clearly looking ahead to this game against the Shockers.  This Cincy team doens't get a lot of love from the national media, but this team I love come March.  This is a veteran group that can score and they get in you face on defense.  Cincy is 13-0 at home and will want to send a statement to Wichita St who just joined the conference this season 

Michigan is 10-5 in league play right 14-1 at home and aren't getting any respect here.  They are also 4-1 their last 5.  I was against Ohio St the other night and they got throttled at Penn St.  Many will think bounce back, but this is a huge rivalry and Michigan will want revenge from way back in December. 

I know Bagley is out again for a third straight game, but that hasn't stopped Duke so far. Clemson is getting respect because they have covered 4 straight and because they are 13-0 at home this season.  The injuries are mounting though, they will be without Mitchell who was playing 33 minutes a game and averaging nearly 12 ppg.  That is a big loss considering he took a lot of heat off Devoe their shooter.  They are now down 2 starters and Duke is deep with All Americans.  I think Duke gets it done 

Really like the spot here to fade North Carolina as they are coming off 4 straight wins here but 3 of those were at home.  Only one was against a quality team and that was their big rival in Duke.  Louisville had a rough stretch losing back to back home games, but I they will be eager here tonight for a big time showing 

Baylor all of the sudden woke up and is playing their best basketball right now.  With a win here today and I believe they get it, they will probably be inside the tournament field projections.  They have won 4 straight and have covered 5 straight.  They were embarrassed as it was their worst conference loss @ Tech the first time around so you know that is in their head

Wrong team is favored here in this match up.  I just think Xavier is the real deal.  While,  I am high on Nova as well I just think Xavier is the right side here.  Sine their last meeting Xavier has won every game.  They were completely destroyed by Nova losing by 24 you know they will be out for blood today 

I think this is a very cheap price here to back Arkansas who is 13-1 at home.  They are 6-2 SU their last 8 games and have a 3 game winning streak here.  They will want revenge here from an earlier loss this season.  The Aggies moved back in the rankings this week and didn't work out so well as they lost pretty easily to Missouri

NC St has been a surprise this season, but I dont trust them here after winning at Cuse as a 6 point dog.  Wake is coming off a great performance beating Georgia Tech by 17.  Wake in their first meeting played just terrible barely shooting over 20% from three.  I think they put forth a better effort here today 

I will take my chances with Kentucky here to break out of their slump.  They have lost 4 straight, but 3 of those were on the road.  And to be fair to them they were underdogs in 3 of those games as well.  This looks like the spot where we get a great effort here out of Kentucky 

I think the wrong team is favored here.  I will give ya that Indiana has looked better than Iowa on the season, but Indiana doesn't deserve to be favored on the road as they are just 3-7 SU.  Iowa has sure had a rough road to say the least, but I expect a good effort from them today.  They also have the revenge angle here on their side. 

Arizona St gets their revenge here tonight.  They are little brother and while Arizona will be ready for this game it means a lot more to ASU.  they only lost by 6 despite shooting 38% while Zona shot 45%.  Arizona St has their lumps along the way, but are now playing well winning 3 straight and 4 of their last 5. 

I normally dont venture into the small schools but Louisiana Monroe is worth a shot here playing their best basketball of the season.  They have won 4 of their last 5 and coming off 2 road wins as a double digit underdog.  UT Arlington is coming off 3 straight wins but all were at home they are also just 1-5 SU their last 6 road games 

Really like Penn St here as they all of the sudden are playing great and making a move to get into the tournament.  They have won 5 of their last 6 with the only loss being at Michigan St in a game they actually blew the last 5 minutes.  I still think the betting public will be all over Ohio St since they are ranked, but remember Penn St already beat them once this season 

The price is right here to back Boise as they are a perfect 13-0 at home this season.  These two teams are battling for a Mountain West title and Boise would actually take over first place with a win here and I believe they get the revenge here.  Nevada has turned into a big public team because they are ranked now.  

New Mexico is in a little funk right now losing 3 of 4 all by single digits.  One of those games against Utah St.  They have this one circled for revenge here.  Plus Utah St is coming off a huge upset win over Boise St.  We all the PIT is a tough place to play and I believe New Mexico responds with a huge effort here tonight. 

The Celtics should be plenty motivated here to avoid a 3 game home losing streak.  This will be the 4th straight road for the Clippers in 6 days.  Another reason I think we get a huge effort from Boston is for the fact this is their last game before All Star break.  

I like these type of games in the NBA where a team that just recently lost to a bad team get their chance or revenge right away.  The Pistons were a hot team for a little bit with they got Griffin.  Just two games ago they were beat by the Hawks @ Atlanta.  Atlanta played last night in a hard fought game and covered vs the Bucks.  I think the Pistons take some anger out here and blow them out 

Ignore the rankings here plain and simple.  I think the Florida St rolls in this one.  Clemson has benefited from with their 2nd best player being out playing winning 4 straight but 3 of those were against bottom feeders.  Florida St is a desperate team right now and need a major win after losing two straight.  This is where the injury to Grantham kicks in and Clemson starts to tumble. 

Maybe I'm grabbing this line to early as Bagley is still questionable.  Even if he doesn't go I will gladly take them and when the line drops I would love it.  Anytime a team goes on the road as a big underdog and wins SU and the fact that it was against their rival in Virginia makes much more difficult to back up.  That win will catch Duke's attention and we will see a big performance here tonight at home. 

Any time Nova goes on the road in the Big East it's a big game for their opponents.  Well this happens to be an interesting spots here and that is why I am backing Providence.  Nova has their biggest game of the year on deck this weekend @ Xavier.  I'm very high on Nova but 9.5 here is too many for a team who is 11-3 at home. 

Maybe, just maybe this is were Virginia is hitting their wall.  They just lost SU as a double digit favorite to their rival Virginia Tech for their 2nd loss of the season.  It will be interesting to see how they handle their first loss in conference play.  Miami is no joke at 18-6 and 9-1 at home I think they were looking ahead to this game tonight.  

Yes, the Gophers have been playing bad and I get that.  I just think you have to fade Mich St here as they are obviously coming off their biggest win of the season beating #3 Purdue.  We will get a max effort here out of Minnesota no doubt.  Sparty has only covered one road game since the new year and that was at Illinois.  

Rhode Island is a very good team there is no doubt about it.  I backed this team earlier in the season quite a few times.  Now you have to pay a price as everyone knows about them and their 20-3 record.  Richmond is 9-15, but what goes unnoticed is that they are playing their best basketball right now.  They are 6-2 SU their last 8 games covering 7 of those.  Their last 5 losses going back to December 30th all have been by single digits.   I think they keep it closer than 16

Missouri isn't getting enough respect here IMO.  The Aggies are making headlines now and jumped back into the rankings.  Both teams are 4-1 their last 5 games.  I just think Missouri has been more impressive as they won two of their games as underdogs.  Also I think the Aggies are firmly in the tournament while Missouri is one of those iffy teams right now.  However, a win here tonight puts them and they get the revenge 

Iowa St has had a down year for them, but this is one game for them that is always circled.  I backed Iowa St vs Oklahoma as a dog and they won SU.  Iowa St has beaten Texas Tech West Virginia and Oklahoma at home why not Kansas this time.  Maybe, they wont but I will take the points.  Iowa St took Kansas down the wire as a 16 point dog.  This Kansas team clearly isnt the same we are use to seeing.

This is a do or die game for Texas as they have 2 road games coming.  They have lost back to back since beating Oklahoma and can't afford a slip up here.  I also had Baylor on Saturday as they won vs Kansas setting up for a let down here.  I just think Texas has enough pride here to show up for a big effort plus the revenge is on their side as well 

I will say I don't like the fact that West Virginia has Kansas on deck.  However, I don't think they will be looking ahead here for the simple fact that they just lost to Oklahoma St at home as double digit favorites.   Throw in the fact they will want revenge a loss @ TCU.  West Virginia was -2 in that game so given that this is on their home court the line should be 8.5-9.  

I will take the Bulls at a short price here against the Magic.  The Magic have been playing better as they are 4-2 SU their last 6 and 4-2 ATS.  3 of those 4 games were at home though.  The Bulls do get everyone back tonight except Dunn so I think that helps them a lot.  Also I believe the Magic will struggle on the road without their best player in Gordon 

I know Penn St is the better team overall I just have a hard time backing a team that hasn't been in the favorite role at all on the road.  We will see what kind off fight this Illinois team has after a lousy performance last game vs Wisconsin where they shot horrible.  Penn St has a huge game for them Thursday with Ohio St coming to town.  

This may not be ideal here to back Duke off North Carolina but the gap of talent is just massive.  I think Coach K will have them ready here after dropping 3 of their last 4 and 2 consecutive road games.  They have to get a road win and blow a team out for confidence.  I think that is the case here tonight.  Carter and Bagley should just own this game. 

I like here to get the job done.  Illinois state sits at third in the conference while Valpo sits dead last.  Now you ask yourself why is Valpo favored by 5.  Well Illnois St will be without their 2nd and 3rd leading scorer today which is a huge loss.  Their 2nd leading scorer for today will be a guy who averages 6 ppg.  Valpo is playing better than their record indicates as well as they have lost 4 of their last 5 but their last two both on the road were by 6 and 4.  Valpo gets it done 

Let's take Bama here and I think they get the job done outright.  Tenn was so lucky their last game @ Kentucky winning in the final seconds after they hit a deep three.  This Bama team is 10-2 at home.  They are coming off a loss @ Miss St, but they were in a rough spot there after winning @ Florida.  Bama and Sexton get the job done tomorrow

This line will go up as well.  I was hoping that Purdue would win outright against Ohio St, but that wasn't the case.  I give Sparty credit surviving back to back road games that were decided in the final minute.  To me all the talent still belongs to Michigan St.  I know this game means a lot to Purdue, but for Sparty it would put them in a tie for 1st place. 

I see this line making a decent jump come tomorrow.  For those who don't follow the MVC very well this is a huge rivalry game.  Drake laid an egg in the first meeting which is no surprise, they haven't won @ UNI in forever.  Drake at one time was leading the MVC, but have had a rough stretch, but two of those game against the best team in Loyola.  Drake bounces back here and gets a nice revenge game 

I will lay the number here with Creighton as they are looking for a huge win.  Xavier just survived one last game at Butler winning in OT.  While Xavier is playing very well I can't ignore the fact that Creighton is a perfect 13-0 at home this season.  The Bluejays average 11 made threes at home and that will be the difference here

If you have followed me this season you know how much I love to fade Oklahoma on the road.  They have lost 5 straight road games and failed to cover in each.  I could make the case that they shouldn't even be favored here.  Oklahoma is just 2-5 SU their last 7 games. Iowa St has beat the likes of West Virginia and Texas Tech at home. 

This Kansas team is just way overrated IMO.  They have been on the right side of so many close games it makes me sick.  They laid an egg last game vs Oklahoma St the worst team in the Big 12 at home.  Baylor will want some big time revenge as they let a lead slip away at Kansas and I think they get their revenge.

This line could go up a little more.  I know some will say here that UNC will be focused because NC ST just came in their place and beat them as a 12 point underdog.  I just think this is such a brutal spot considering UNC just beat their arch rival Duke on Thursday night.  As everyone knows thats the biggest rivalry in college ball and sets up for a huge let down 

Utah is one of the hottest teams in the league right now winning 7 straight games, but they made a huge splash yesterday before the trade deadline.  With them shopping their best true scorer in Hood after playing so well I can see this having a negative impact on the team.  They plan on cutting Rose and Crowder isn't much of an upgrade considering how bad he has played.  The Hornets are in their final road game here so expect a big effort 

I like the Heat here tonight as they will have all the motivation to try and avoid losing 3 straight at home.  They have had some close games here lately and have wound up on the wrong side.  They have lost 5 straight, but all 5 were single digits including a couple that came down to the final seconds.  Wade may not play tonight and even if he doesnt that is fine but I think he will bring enough energy for the Heat here tonight. 

Maybe LeBron will put his team on his back here and he could, but there is no way I could back them as they barely can yield a team.  The Cavs made the biggest moves yesterday which I think were very good getting younger and better on defense.  None of those players are playing tonight throw that in with the fact that Love is still out.  I could see the Cavs just throwing this game since they might have 7 guys available.

I really like the Sun Devils here at home tonight.  They were the surprise team everyone was talking about making their way into the top 5.  Everyone knew they would come back to earth a little bit and they have.  They are 10-2 at home though and I think this a tough spot for USC who is coming off their rival in UCLA and they are obviously looking ahead to playing Arizona to fight for the PAC 12 title.  

Both of these teams are bottom feeders in the league there is no doubt about it.  I just can't back this Badger team who is a pathetic 1-10 on the road this season.  Illinois is 11-3 at home so given the huge home/road splits these teams have I will take Illinois 

I like fading teams who are coming off their best game of the season.  That is exactly what Stanford is doing here as they were 1.5 point dogs against Oregon and just blew them out winning by 35 points.  They shot a crazy 63% from the field.  That is simply a tough task to follow up and the fact they are 2-6 on the road tells me big let down spot against Utah who is 9-2 at home 

I think Virginia Tech understands the importance of this game tonight as they have 3 road games coming up and will be lucky to win 1 of those.  They simply cant lose back to back home games.  I also think NC St is being over valued here.  They beat a bad UNC team this year lets face it.  They also have UNC coming to town this weekend which will be a huge look ahead.  

Most will probably view this as a classic let down spot for Texas.  I just dont think they are getting enough credit for that win over Oklahoma.  They have won and covered their last 5 home games and this Kansas St team isn't trending well losing by double digits their last two games. 

Well this line is odd and dropping.  I know how good Virginia has been and they are covering machines, but it has to stop and will stop.  Florida St is playing with a ton of confidence right now after going on the road and winning @ Louisville.  Florida St is 10-1 at home and this will be a huge win tonight 

This is just crazy here.  These two teams have already met back in early December and Nebraska pulled the upset at that time as Minnesota was highly ranked.  The Gophers were favored by 9 yes 9 points.  Now on their home court they are 3.5  This huge adjustments just creates tons of value with Minnesota.  The Gophers are struggling but I think we get a gutsy performance 

The Raptors just don't get any love when it comes to the betting market and public.  The Raptors have a legit shot to be #1 seed in the Eastern Conference.  They also play damn good basketball at home with a 21-4 record.  The Celtics have some nagging injuries right now Toronto gets the best of them tonight

I will take the Knicks here tonight as they just faced this Bucks team at Milwaukee and let one slip away losing by 2.  The Bucks have some injury issues right now and Giannis will play tonight but wont be 100%.  The Knicks have been a bet on team all season at home with a 16-10 ATS record 

I have had this one circled.  I went against Kentucky in their last game @ Missouri which was a win and now will back them here as I think they were looking ahead to this game tonight.  The Vols have established themselves as the frontrunner in the SEC, but Kentucky is right on their heels.  Kentucky is 13-1 at home as well 

Northwestern has won 3 of their last 4 with their only loss being to Michigan.  The Wildcats have had a disappointing season to say the least, but now they are fully healthy and are also on the outside looking in for the tournament.  A win here would go a long ways and I think they do win this game tonight.  

Miss St was a team coming into conference play I was looking to play against because of their weak non conference schedule.  They are just 5-5 in conference play, but have won 3 straight games.  They played Bama tough the first game only losing by 6 @ and shot 37% from the field.

The revenge spot sets up even nicer here as Bama comes in off a huge road win @ Florida setting them up for a let down spot.  They also have Tennessee on deck as well.  

Miss St wins fairly easy

Butler is playing their best basketball of the season right now winning 4 straight and 5 of their last 6.  Butler lost to Xavier only by 7 in the first go around.  Butler also defends their home court very well having a 12-1 home record.  

I cashed in playing against Oklahoma on Saturday night and it worked again.  You simply can fade this team on the road and back them at home.  They are a perfect 11-0 at home and will want revenge here from earlier this season.  West Virginia was in a do or die spot vs Kansas St as they were coming off 3 straight losses.  They responded with a big effort and blew them out.  

Wizards have covered and won SU 4 straight games.  I think the Pacers are being under valued as they are playing well themselves.  They have won 4 of their last 5 games and 6 straight home games which has lasted 3 weeks now.  The Wizards will slow down here without Wall as he will be a big miss against this Pacers team 

This is just a brutal spot here for Indiana.  I backed Indiana Saturday night as a winner and they played their tails off against Michigan St.  It's very hard for them to get back up here tonight on the road coming off that emotional of a game.  Rutgers is a team that you want to back at home as they are 8-2 ATS 

Now that this line has dropped down to me there is no choice but only to take the Patriots.  Let's look at how much love the Eagles are getting now.  They were home dogs in both of their playoff wins and now on a neutral field and are nearly the same amount as a dog as they were at home.  There is one thing that is the biggest factor to me and that is the fact that the Patriots are familiar with this territory and Brady just wins plain and simple.  There is just to much hype for me surrounding the Eagles defense right now.  I also think that Foles will come back down to reality here and the pressure will get to him on this stage. 

LATE ADD....Jazz playing their 2nd of a back to back here and the Spurs are coming off a home loss.  This spot favors the Spurs for a bounce back and they play very well at home 

If you have simply faded Oklahoma blindly on the road like I have you would be 4-1 since the end of December.  This team has the public in love with them because of the attention Trae Young gets on this team.  I think they are very overrated I say it time and time again.  Texas is playing well right now and are probably on the outside looking in for the tournament but a win here would go along ways.  

I think you need to get this one now as Boatwright the best player for USC is questionable.  Even if he does play clearly he isn't at 100%.  I think now that Ball is gone from the Bruins they have been forgotten about.  They are 15-7 right now and have defended their home court very well going 11-2.  USC has a good record, but they have also had probably the easiest schedule you could ask for so far in the PAC 12

Miss St is a hard team to get a grasp on.  They did play one of the easiest schedules in the non conference, but they have actually played better than I thought in conference play with a 4-5 record.  They are 3-2 their last 5 games with both losses coming on the road at Bama and Kentucky, there is no shame in that.  They are 14-1 at home and are catching Georgia who is coming off a nice upset over Florida 

I just can't see this line going any higher.  I actually believe it will drop a lot.  Let's face it here this Michigan St team has a lot going on right now in their program.  I fully expect Izzo to be fired at some point and it is serving as a big distraction.  Indiana will throw everything they have at Sparty here to pull the upset.  Remember they were 8.5 dogs vs Purdue and nearly beat them SU and I think Purdue is a lot better team right now than Michigan St.  

This line has to go up.  Evansville is missing their 2nd and 5th leading scorer and both happen to be guards.  They are in a tough spot here coming off 3 straight wins but being short handed here will kill them.  Illinois St is coming off a nice road win over Missouri St who is one of the better teams in the MVC.  They also already won @ Evansville earlier this season when they were at full strength.  This line hasn't been adjusted enough 

Are people all the sudden now buying into Kentucky.  I think that win at West Virginia is still fresh in peoples mind.  I also believe the Big 12 is overrated big time.  Kentucky is also in a tough spot here with a huge look ahead game against Tennessee while you know Mizzou will want this one.  I also really like the fact Missouri bounced back last game with a good win at Bama.  They still have a shot at the tournament and a win here would put them on bubble

Texas Tech has won 3 straight here all by single digits.  Have I mentioned I think the Big 12 is vastly overrated.  Here is a perfect example a top 10 team getting points huh?  I dont like Tech at all going forward.  This TCU team last home game had their way with West Virginia and they have impressed me a lot with out their PG Fisher.  TCU is 11-2 at home and they are another one that needs quality wins

I like the Suns here tonight catching this many and really wouldn't be surprised to see the upset.  The Jazz are really thin at the guard position with some injuries.  This is also a classic let down spot here the Jazz are coming off two huge wins beating the Raptors and Warriors and now have the Spurs on deck.  The Suns snapped their losing streak last game and generally teams ride that momentum

The Lakers had been playing prior to dropping their last two games.  I think this road trip is now getting to them. Here is another games I like the fact that the Nets snapped a losing streak last game beating the Sixers as big underdogs.  Also the Lakers beat the Nets earlier this season so revenge is in the mind of the Nets here 

The Pacers are 4-1 SU their last 5 games, but all those wins came at home and one of them came against these Hornets just two games ago.  Im a big fan of the quick revenge spots in the NBA and that is what we have here.  I also think we get a strong effort from the Hornets because they have a west coast trip following this game.  

I think this is a tough game for ASU.  They started off the season so hot and were even ranked inside the top 5.  Well they have had a slow conference start with a 4-5 record.  I'm not sure if Washington does have a chance for the tournament bid, but I bet in their minds they do and they need a quality win like tonight to help get them there.  Washington wins this one

Let's take Denver here coming off just two brutal losses.  They lost by 1 to the Celtics and by 2 to the Spurs.  The Thunder had their winning streak snapped and I think they lose again here.  These teams have played twice with each team coming away with a win, but the Nuggets only lost by 1 at OKC.  

Well it's time to see how much hearth this Badgers team has left in them.  I think they respond here at home against Northwestern who is 3-7 on the road this season.  Wisconsin blew a nice lead against Nebraska and they actually were bigger favorites in that game then they are here against a worse opponent.

This is desperate time for Marquette tonight.  I think they get the revenge on Butler, but more importantly they really need this game for tournament hopes.  They are coming off a great game against Nova only losing by 3.  Butler has won and covered their last 2 games, but those were against St Johns and Depaul the two worst teams in the conference 

Really like Bradley here tonight to take down the conference leader in the MVC in Loyola.  Bradley is a perfect 11-0 at home this season.  Bradley has won and covered 3 straight games.  I think they are catching Loyola at the right time and throw in the revenge factor as well 

This is by far the largest home underdog role I ever remember Iowa St being in.  For that reason alone I have to take them.  Hilton is a tough place to play and I think we see a big time effort here.  I also think West Virginia is a little overrated this team blew some serious leads against Kansas and Kentucky on their home court.  

I think Auburn is the most overrated team in country.  I'm not buying their record or ranking at all.  Ole Miss has been a solid team at home they just beat Bama in their last home game and the one previous to that they beat Florida.  I think Ole Miss is prime for a so called upset 

Alright I'm ready to jump back on board here with Drake.  They have lost 2 straight and 3 of their of last 4 games.  The price is right now as they are still 8-1 at home.  I know Southern Illinois is playing well right now winning 3 straight and 4 of their last 5.  They are coming off a pretty big win here over Missouri St as a 6 point dog.  Drake shot terrible in the first meeting and still won

The line move I am not shocked by.  I think UNC will be extra motivated here coming off back to back losses.  I cant back Clemson here even though they are still ranked and getting respect because they havent lost at home.  When you lose a key player like Grantham it's hard to replace him 

This time of the season I always look for teams that have their season on the line.  I think Georgia is in that boat right now.  They have lost 3 straight now and the last 2 have been close fought games.  This is the game that will make or break the season.  I think they respond here with a big effort against a rival in Florida.  

I just think the wrong team is favored here.  Oklahoma St has two consecutive losses, but both were on the road and came down to the wire.  I like the way they are playing and just think TCU really misses Fisher right now.  They also have a couple other injuries they are dealing with which will make this difficult tonight

I think the Big 12 proved a lot over the weekend how overrated they are as a conference.  I'm not buying into teams like Kansas and Oklahoma as they have been over ranked for a while now.  Kansas St is one of those sleeper teams and can actually tie Kansas in conference play with a win here tonight.  I believe they get the revenge as they only lost by 1 @ KU.
