At 8:05 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Golden State Warriors (715) and the Cleveland Cavaliers (716). Cleveland (716). Cleveland (26-16) has lost seven of their last nine games after their 97-95 loss in Indiana on Friday as a 1.5-point favorite. The Cavaliers have lost their last two games despite being the favorite — and they have played 9 of their last 10 games Over the Total after suffering at least two straight upset losses. Cleveland has also played 12 straight games Over the Total after losing four or five of their last six games. Additionally, the Cavaliers have played 33 of their last 17 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a point spread setback. Now this team returns home for the first time since January 2nd after playing five straight games on the road — and they have played 9 straight home games Over the Total after being on the road for at least seven days. Cleveland has also played 5 of their last 6 home games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage over 60% on the road. This is a rematch of the Christmas Day game between these two teams that finished well below the 216 Total with the Warriors winning by a 99-92 score. We had a big play on the Over that day — and neither team could hit the side of a barn that day. The Cavaliers made just 31.8% of their shots along with making only 27% of their 3-pointers. They should shoot much better tonight as they have a 48.6% shooting percentage along with a 37.6% mark behind the arc when playing at home. Of course, Cleveland has since seen Isaiah Thomas return from injury — and his insertion into this rivalry should help the scoring on both sides since he is both a prolific scorer and a liability on defense because of his size. It is interesting that the Total has been installed in the 230s for this game like the Totals ended in last year’s NBA Finals — even after a combined 191 points were scored between these two teams three weeks ago. It looks easy to take the Under — and that makes me feel even more comfortable with this contrarian play.

Golden State (35-9) did not have Stephen Curry in that Christmas Day meeting between these two teams — so that explains some of the reasons why the Total has shot up over 15 points from that contest. The Warriors made only 46.3% of their shots in that contest which was well below their 51% mark for the season. That game started at a blistering pace — but with both teams unable to make their baskets, that fast tempo eventually waned as both coaches wanted their teams to take more time to get better shots. Golden State comes off a 127-125 win in Toronto on Saturday as a 5.5-point favorite. The Warriors have then played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a straight-up win. Golden State has also played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total after scoring at least 100 points in their last game. And in their last 7 games after allowing at least 100 points in their last game, the Warriors have played 6 of these games Over the Total. Additionally, Golden State has covered the point spread in 13 of their last 19 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage over 60%. This team is fully healthy again with Andre Iguodalo listed as probable despite his hip injury. The Warriors got on the road where they have played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total. Golden State has also played 12 of their last 16 road games with the Total set at 220 or higher. Lastly, in the last 8 games between these two teams in Cleveland, the game finished Over the Total 6 times. 25* NBA Pre-All Star Break TNT Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Golden State Warriors (715) and the Cleveland Cavaliers (716). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:40 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the New Orleans Saints (307) and the Minnesota Vikings (308). New  Orleans (12-5) has won three of their last four games with their 31-26 win over Carolina last week as a 6.5-point favorite. The Saints have played 7 of their last 9 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. New Orleans generated 410 yards of offense against a tough Panthers defense — and they have then played 13 of their last 16 games Over the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. The Saints defense did surrender 413 yards of offense themselves with Cam Newton passing for 306 of those yards. New Orleans has played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total after allowing at least 250 passing yards in their last contest. That game with the Panthers finished above the 47.5 point total — and that makes it 9 of their last 11 games that the Saints have played a game Over the Total when the number was listed in the 42.5 to 49 point range. New Orleans has also played 11 of their last 14 games Over the Total in the playoffs. This is a rematch of the Week One meeting between these two teams which was won by the Vikings by a 29-19 score. The Saints have played 18 of their last 24 road games Over the Total when looking to avenge a loss where their opponent scored at least 29 points.

Minnesota (13-3) has won three straight games entering the playoffs with their 23-10 win over the Bears two weeks ago. Many bettors may be scared off from taking the Over considering how good this Vikings defense is that has allowed only 17 combined points over their last three games. But Minnesota has played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 14 points in three straight games. And while the Vikings have played three straight games Under the Total, they have then played 5 of 8 games Over the Total in that fourth game. QB Case Keenum has been outstanding since Week 10 this season: he boasts a 71% completion percentage while averaging 7.8 Yards-Per-Attempt with 15 touchdown passes to just four interceptions over that span. Minnesota scores 24.7 PPG at home and they should be able to reach that number this afternoon against this Saints’ defense that has allowed at least 400 total yards in two straight games. Lastly, the Over is 5-0-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams. 20* NFL Sunday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the New Orleans Saints (307) and the Minnesota Vikings (308). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 1:05 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Jacksonville Jaguars (305) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (306). Jacksonville (11-6) flexed their muscles on defense last week with their 10-3 win over Buffalo. The Jaguars held the Bills to just 263 yards of offense in that game. Jacksonville was 2nd in the NFL in both points allowed and total defense as they hold their opponents to just 15.9 PPG along with only 284.8 total YPG (after last week)— and this defense travels as they are holding their home hosts to only 15.4 PPG and 288.0 total YPG which is right in line with their seasonal numbers. The formula for success in this game is defense and running the football. Blake Bortles threw the ball only 23 times last week while often looking like he lacked confidence. He completed 12 of those balls for 87 yards making him just the fourth quarterback since 2006 to not pass for at least 100 yards in a playoff game. The Jaguars have to burn time off the clock and shorten the length of this game — and that helps our Under play. They failed to cover the 8-point spread last week against Buffalo — and they have then played 6 straight games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Jacksonville has also played 6 of their last 8 road games Under the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Furthermore, this team has played 8 of their last 9 road games Under the Total as an underdog getting 3.5 to 7 points. And in their last 9 games against fellow AFC opponents, the Jaguars have played 8 of these games Under the Total.

Pittsburgh (13-3) enters this game coming off their 28-24 win over the Browns on December 31st. The Steelers have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total when playing at home after a game where both teams scored at least 24 points. Pittsburgh surrendered 272 passing yards in that game — and they have then played 20 of their last 27 games Under the Total after allowing at least 250 passing yards in their last game. The Steelers will be looking to avenge a 30-9 loss to the Jaguars back on October 8th — and they have played 6 straight games Under the Total when looking to avenge a loss by at least four touchdowns to their opponents. And remember with that game that two of the Jacksonville touchdowns came off tipped passes that were then intercepted and returned for a touchdown. Pittsburgh has played 4 of their last 5 home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. The Steelers have also played 21 of their last 31 games Under the Total against fellow AFC opponents. And in their last 6 games in the playoffs, the Under is 4-1-1. 10* NFL Jacksonville-Pittsburgh O/U CBS-TV Special with Under the Total in the game between the Jacksonville Jaguars (305) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (306). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:15 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (303) and the New England Patriots (304). New England (13-3) has been a favorite laying at least 13 points three times in the AFC Divisional Round of the Playoffs in the Bill Belichick-Tom Brady era. The results were as follows: a 34-16 win over Houston last year with the Total at 44; a 45-10 win over Denver in 2012 with the Total set at 50; a 31-20 win over Jacksonville with the Total set at 51. While the Total was 2-0-1 for those three games, all three games saw at least 50 combined points scored with the Patriots averaging 36.7 PPG over that stretch. If New England approaches that number in this game, then this game should go safely Over the Total. The Patriots enter this game with momentum as they followed up their 37-16 win over Buffalo in Week 16 with a 26-6 victory over the Jets to close out their regular season. New England has then played 10 of their last 13 games Over the Total after winning at least two straight games by double-digits. The Patriots are averaging 29.4 PPG at home this season — and they have not only played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total at home but they have also played 9 of their last 11 home games Over the Total with the number set in the 45.5 to 49 point range. Furthermore, New England has played 6 straight playoff games at home Over the Total. And in their last 8 games in the AFC Divisional Playoffs, the Over is 7-0-1.

Tennessee (10-7) got their offense going in the second-half last week by scoring 19 points to stun Kansas City with their 22-21 upset victory as an 8.5-point underdog. The Titans have played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total after failing to score more than a field goal in the first-half of their last game. Tennessee has also played 16 of their last 22 games after a victory by 3 points or less in their last game. The Titans have played two straight games Under the Total — but they have then played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after playing two straight games that finished below the number. Tennessee’s defense ranks 13th in the NFL by allowing 328.0 total YPG — but Pro Football Focus ranks their strength of schedule of opposing offenses to be last in the league. The Titans pass defense allowed 239.2 passing YPG this season which was 25th in the NFL. Considering that the Tennessee run defense ranks 4th in the NFL by allowing 88.8 rushing YPG, it is the passing game from which the Patriots are likely to exploit — and that helps our Over play with more stoppages of the clock likely coming from incomplete passes. The Titans have played 5 of their last 7 road games Over the Total against teams with a winning record at home. And in their last 5 trips to Foxboro to play the Patriots, the game finished Over the Total 4 times. 25* AFC Divisional Playoff Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (303) and the New England Patriots (304). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:35 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Atlanta Falcons (301) and the Philadelphia Eagles (302). Atlanta (11-6) has now played six straight games Under the Total given the steadily improved play of their defense combining with too many bettors not catching up to the reality that this Falcons offense is not as powerful this year as the one last year that led the NFL by scoring 33.8 PPG. This Total opened in the 43.5 range and has been bet down to 41 — and that is simply too low for how this game will likely play out. For starters, both these teams have amped up the number of offensive plays they are generating per game. Atlanta leads all teams left in the Playoffs by averaging 68.0 offensive plays per game over their last four contests — and that is well above their 62.5 offensive plays per game average for the regular season which was just 25th in the league. They now face an Eagles team that opponents passed the ball against in 61.4% of their offensive plays which was 3rd most this season. It stands to reason that the Falcons will emphasize the pass in this game considering that this Philadelphia team led the NFL by allowing a 79.2 rushing YPG. Atlanta behind Matt Ryan has played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total in the Playoffs. The Over is also 11-4-2 in the Falcons’ last 17 games in the month of January. Additionally, the Over is 3-1-1 in Atlanta’s last 5 road games against teams with a winning record at home. And while the Falcons come off their 26-13 upset win in Los Angeles as a 6.5-point underdog against the Rams last week, they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after upset win as a road underdog.

Philadelphia (13-3) ran the 3rd most plays this season averaging 67.1 offensive plays per game this season — and that number dropped only slightly to 66.1 offensive plays per game over their last four contests which encompasses the time where Nick Foles became the starting quarterback for the injured Carson Wentz. The Eagles hale the field again after losing their last game of the regular season by a 6-0 score at home to the Cowboys as a 4-point underdog. Philadelphia has then played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a loss at home. The Eagles have also played a decisive 47 of their last 69 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and this includes playing fifteen of their last twenty games Over the Total after a defeat. Additionally, Philadelphia has played 15 of their last 21 games Over the Total after a point spread setback. And they have played 4 straight games Over the Total after failing to score more than 14 points in their last game. The Eagles ran the ball only 18 times in that game for 70 yards with their number one seed in the NFC already secured. The Eagles will surely attempt to get their ground game going support Foles under center — and they have seen he over go 40-15-1 in their last 56 games after failing to rush for more than 90 yards in their last game. 25* NFC Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Atlanta Falcons (301) and the Philadelphia Eagles (302). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 3:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles (681) and the North Dakota State Bison (682). North Dakota State (9-8) has lost two of their last three games with their 67-61 upset loss to Denver as an 11-point favorite. The Bison have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 13 of their last 17 games Over the Total after a point spread setback. This North Dakota State team stays at home where they have played 10 of their last 13 games at home Over the Total — and they have played 8 straight home games Over the Total with the Total set in the 140-149.5 point range. The Bison have also played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage no better than 40%.

Oral Roberts (7-12) saw their three-game winning streak snapped on Thursday with their 78-75 loss at South Dakota State as a 10.5-point underdog. The Golden Eagles have then played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss. Oral Roberts has also played 11 of their last 14 games Over the Total after a point spread victory. Now this team stays on the road where they have played a decisive 58 of their last 92 games Over the Total — and this includes playing twenty-five of their last games over the number. And in their last 11 games against teams with a winning record, the Golden Eagles have played 8 of these games Over the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 123-50 combined angle for this situation. 10* CBB Saturday Afternoon O/U Tip Off with Over the Total in the game between the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles (681) and the North Dakota State Bison (682). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 10:35 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the San Antonio Spurs (507) and the Los Angeles Lakers (508). Los Angeles (13-27) played their best defensive game of the season on Tuesday when they held the Kings to just 34.5% shooting in their 99-86 victory. Even with that strong defensive performance, the Lakers have allowed their last five opponents make 46% of their shots which is right in line with their 45.9% opponent’s field goal percentage for the season. Los Angeles did see the return of their rookie point guard Lonzo Ball who bolstered the offense with 11 assists along with pulling down 11 rebounds. While Ball’s shooting numbers have been disparaged by his many critics this season, his contributions to his team as the Floor General have been unappreciated. The Lakers have covered the point spread in two straight games — and they have then covered the point spread in 6 of their last 8 games after covering the point spread in their last two games. Los Angeles stays at home in the Staples Center for this game where they have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total — and they have played 7 of their last 10 home games Over the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. Additionally, the Lakers have played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record.

San Antonio (28-14) is a M*A*S*H Unit right now as they are burdened with a host of injuries. The biggest loss for the team is two-time Defensive Player of Year Kawhi Leonard who is out tonight with the shoulder injury he suffered a few days ago. Rudy Gay is also out for tonight with a heel injury while Tony Parker and Danny Green are questionable with ailments. Gregg Popovich has lamented that missing these players will impact the cohesiveness of the five players he can send out on the court — and that likely will hurt the team on defense much more than on offense. The Spurs come off a 107-100 win at Sacramento on Monday. That game finished well above the 199.5 point total which was the 22nd game that San Antonio has played Over the Total in their last 33 games in the month of January. Additionally, the Spurs have played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total against teams with a losing record. Additionally, San Antonio has played 4 straight road games Over the Total against teams with a losing record at home. Lastly, these two teams have played 7 of their last 8 meetings Over the Total — including playing four straight Overs when playing in LA at the Staples Center. Together, these team trends produce our specific 65-21 combined angle for this situation. 25* NBA Pre-All Star Break Thursday TNT Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the San Antonio Spurs (507) and the Los Angeles Lakers (508). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:00 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Denver Pioneers (587) and the North Dakota State Bison (588). North Dakota State (9-7) has won four of their last five games with their 84-79 upset win at South Dakota as an 8-point underdog. The Bison nailed 52.8% of their shots in that win — and that momentum may very well carry over into tonight’s game. North Dakota State has played 7 of their last 9 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a point spread victory. And with that game with the Coyotes ending far above the 142.5 point total in that game, the Bison have now played a decisive 17 of their last 21 games Over the Total against fellow Summit League members. North Dakota State stays at home for this contest where they are shooting a slick 52.6% from the field. The Bison have played 10 of their last 12 games Over the Total on their home court — and they have played eight of their last nine home games Over the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. Defense is an issue for this team as they are allowing Summit foes to make 47% of their shots. Additionally, North Dakota State has played 6 straight games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage below 40%.

Denver (6-10) has lost two straight games — as well as five of their last six contests — with their 82-63 loss to IUPU-Fort Wayne last Saturday as a 3-point underdog. The Pioneers have then played 10 of their last 13 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. This is Denver’s second game in the last eight days — and they have played 10 of their last 12 games Over the Total when playing their second game in ten days. The Pioneers are allowing their Summit League foes to make 49.1% of their shots which helps explain why they have played 20 of their last 27 games Over the Total against conference opponents. Denver is making 48.8% of their shots over their last five games. And in their last 28 road games against teams with a winning home record, the Pioneers have played 21 of these games Over the Total. 25* CBB Summit League Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Denver Pioneers (587) and the North Dakota State Bison (588).

Take Under the Total in the game between the Portland Trail Blazers and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Portland (21-18) has won two straight games with their 111-110 win over San Antonio on Sunday. The Trail Blazers have then played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total after allowing at least 100 points in their last game. Portland has also played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total on the road. Oklahoma City (22-18) looks to bounce-back from their 114-100 loss at Phoenix as an 8.5-point favorite on Sunday. The Thunder have played 23 of their last 34 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. The Under is also 18-8-1 in their last 27 games against teams with a winning record. Take the Under. Best of luck — Frank.

At 8:45 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the National Championship Game between the Alabama Crimson Tide (151) and the Georgia Bulldogs (152). Alabama (12-1) flexed their muscles on defense last Monday by holding Clemson to just 188 yards of offense en route to their 24-6 win over the Tigers. Considering that the Crimson Tide generated just 261 yards of offense against the Clemson defense, it might appear that the Under is the preferred totals play when they face off against another Top-Ten defense in this Alabama team. But each game has its own internal narrative. The third contest in the Crimson Tide-Tigers trilogy played out as a defensive battle. Don’t be surprised if this Alabama-Georgia showdown between two teams of similar compositions ends up seeing much more offense — and with a Total set in just the mid-40s. The Crimson Tide have seen the Over go 6-2-1 in their last 9 games after allowing no more than 275 yards in their lsat game. And while Alabama has played three straight games that finished Under the Total, they have then played 7 of their last 9 games Over the Total after playing at least two straight games that finished Under the Total. Remember that while this Crimson Tide team has the nation’s top scoring defense (11.1 PPG) and total defense (252.4 YPG), they are no slouches on offense either. Alabama was 12th in the nation by scoring 37.9 PPG while averaging 449.7 total YPG (27th in the FBS). And remember that these offensive numbers are a little lower than they could be since their outstanding defense helped them earn comfortable leads without putting up Oklahoma-like numbers. An elite defense is nothing new for a Nick Saban-coached team. Yet they have played 10 of their last 14 Bowl games Over the Total — and this includes playing five of their last six games in the month of January Over the Total.

Georgia (13-1) finished Top-Five in scoring defense (15.7 PPG) while finishing 6th in total defense (289.5 YPG). But this Bulldogs team scored 36.3 PPG while averaging 440.3 total YPG which ranked 17th and 31st in the FBS respectively. As Georgia proved against the Sooners on Monday, they can crank up their offense into high gear to winning a scoring fest if they need to in order to win. In their 54-48 win in overtime against Oklahoma, they generated 527 yards of offense. The Bulldogs have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after gaining at least 450 yards in their last game. But the Georgia defense had trouble slowing down the Sooners offense as they gave up 531 yards along with 6.55 Yards-Per-Play. The Bulldogs have played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after allowing at least 6.25 YPP in their last game. Additionally, while Georgia has covered the point spread in four straight games, they have then played 5 of the last 6 games Over the Total after covering the point spread in four or five of their last six contests. Furthermore, the Bulldogs have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total against fellow SEC opponents. Lastly, in the last 6 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Over the Total 5 times. 25* CFB Bowl Total of the Year with Over the Total in the National Championship Game between the Alabama Crimson Tide (151) and the Georgia Bulldogs (152). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:40 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Carolina Panthers (107) and the New Orleans Saints (108). Carolina (11-5) will be facing this Saints’ offense for the third time this season — and that should give an advantage to their defense given this familiarity. The Panthers have played 12 of their last 18 games Under the Total against NFC South rivals — and this includes playing four of their last five games Under the Total against divisional rivals. Carolina looks to bounce-back from their 22-10 loss in Atlanta last week with that final score falling far below that 44.5 point total. The Panthers offense managed to generate just 248 yards of offense in that game. Carolina also allowed 371 yards in that contest — and the Under is then 9-3-1 in their last 13 games after allowing at least 350 yards in their last game. Furthermore, the Panthers have played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total when playing in a domed stadium. They only generate 308.2 YPG when playing on the road this season. But this stout Carolina defense only allows the home team to score 19.6 PPG while limiting them to just 303.2 total YPG.

New Orleans (11-5) looks to bounce-back from their 31-24 upset loss in Tampa Bay despite being a 6-point favorite in that game. The Saints have then played 11 of their last 18 games Under the Total after a loss as a road favorite. New Orleans has also played 14 of their last 23 games Under the Total after a game where at least 50 combined points were scored. The Saints defense allowed the Bucs to generate 455 yards of offense in that loss. But now New Orleans returns home where they held the Panthers to just 279 yards of offense back on December 3rd in their 31-21 victory. That does not seem to be a fluke when considering that the Saints only allowed 288 total yards in the first meeting between these two teams back on September 24th in their 34-13 victory. Those numbers average out to just 17 PPG along with 283.5 total YPG for Carolina in their two games against New Orleans this season — so the Saints defense looks poised to have a much better day. Additionally, while New Orleans has failed to cover the point spread in five of their last seven games, they have then played 23 of their last 38 games Under the Total after failing to cover the point spread in five or six of their last seven games. 25* NFC South Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Carolina Panthers (107) and the New Orleans Saints (108). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 1:05 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Buffalo Bills (105) and the Jacksonville Jaguars (106). Buffalo (9-7) did their part to reach the AFC Playoffs last week with their 22-16 win in Miami as a 2.5-point favorite. The Bills have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a straight-up win. Buffalo’s defense did surrender 356 yards in that game — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest. This Bills’ team has been vulnerable on defense when playing away from home. They allowed 24.6 PPG while surrendering 349.6 total YPG in their eight road games this season. Moving forward, Buffalo has played 9 of their last 13 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record.

Jacksonville (10-6) has lost two games in a row after their 15-10 loss at Tennessee. The Jaguars have then played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after failing to score more than 14 points in their last game. The Jaguars defense did limit the Titans to just 229 yards of offense — but they have then played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 250 yards in their last game. Now Jacksonville returns home where they have played 10 of their last 14 games Over the Total — and this includes playing four straight games Over the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. And in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record, the Jaguars have played 5 of these games Over the Total. Lastly, these two teams have played 5 straight games Over the Total in their last 5 meetings. 10* NFL Buffalo-Jacksonville O/U Special with Over the Total in the game between the Buffalo Bills (105) and the Jacksonville Jaguars (106).

At 8:15 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Atlanta Falcons (103) and the Los Angeles Rams (104). Atlanta (10-6) enters this game having played five straight games that finished Under the Total after their 22-10 win over Carolina with that Total closing around 44.5. For some, that might be enough to trigger a contrarian Over bet — and I considered this angle for a lengthy time. But the damning case against that argument is that the Falcons specifically have played 7 straight games Under the Total after playing at least five straight Unders before that game. Atlanta plays underrated defense — they rank 9th in the NFL by allowing 318.4 total YPG. Over their last three games, they are limiting their opponents to just 312.0 total YPG after limiting the Panthers last week to just 248 yards of offense. The Falcons have then played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a straight-up win. And while they generated 371 yards of offense over Carolina, they have then played 11 of their last 16 games Under the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last contest. Atlanta will look to run the ball to keep the Rams offense off the field and exploit this vulnerability in the Los Angeles defense as they are allowing 122.3 rushing YPG which is 28th in the league. The Falcons have not scored more than 24 points in five straight games — so this a ball-control defensive-orientated team is what this team is become this season. They controlled the clock for 34:42 minutes last week against the Panthers in that must-win game. They have played 4 straight games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. And in their last 5 playoff games on the road, the Under is 3-1-1.

Los Angeles (11-5) rested their starters last week in a 34-13 loss to San Francisco. Yet their effort on defense had to be a disappointment for defensive coordinator Wade Phillips after seeing his defense surrender 463 yards to the 49ers. The Rams have played 10 of their last 13 games Under the Total after allowing at least 30 points in their last game. Los Angeles has also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last contest. Additionally, not only have the Rams played 9 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns but they have played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a loss by at least 21 points. On their home field, Los Angeles has played 6 of their last 9 games Under the Total with the number in the 42.5 to 49 point range. And in their last 11 home games as the favorite, the Rams have played 7 of these games Under the Total. 10* NFL Saturday Night Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Atlanta Falcons (103) and the Los Angeles Rams (104). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (101) and the Kansas City Chiefs (102). Kansas City (10-6) has won four straight games with their 27-24 win at Denver as a 3-point underdog last Sunday. The Chiefs have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. Now this team returns home where they are holding their visitors to just 16.9 PPG. This Kansas City team scores 24.1 PPG on their home field — and that is 1.8 PPG lower than their 25.9 PPG seasonal average. They also only generate 343.1 total YPG which is over 30 YPG lower than their 375.4 total YPG mark. The Chiefs have played a decisive 44 of their last 63 games Under the Total on their home field. They also have played 14 of their last 20 home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. And in their last 5 playoff games at home, Kansas City has played 4 of these games Under the Total.

Tennessee (9-7) clinched a spot in the AFC Playoffs last Sunday with their 15-10 victory over Jacksonville as a 2.5-point favorite. The Titans eked out that game despite generating only 232 yards of offense. A +3 net turnover margin helped the Titans overcome their limited offensive effort in that game. Tennessee scores only 20.9 PPG while averaging just 314.0 total YPG — and those numbers drop to scoring just 17.5 PPG while averaging a mere 270.7 total YPG when on the road. The Titans defense did do a fine job of stopping the Jaguars offense last week as they managed only 229 yards of offense. In fact, the lone Jacksonville touchdown came from a fumble recovery returned for a 67-yards touchdown. Tennessee has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. The Titans formula for success in this game will be running the football to burn time off the clock which keeps the Chiefs’ offense off the field — and that is a great formula for the Under. Lastly, in their last 11 games played in the month of January, Tennessee has played 8 of these games Under the Total. 25* NFL Wildcard Playoff Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Under the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (101) and the Kansas City Chiefs (102). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 7:05 PM ET on Friday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Penguins (51) and the New York Islanders (52). New York (20-17-3) has lost four straight games with their 6-4 loss in Philadelphia last night. The Islanders have then seen the Over go 16-5-1 in their last 22 games after allowing at least five goals in their last game. The Over is also 3-1-1 in their last 5 games when playing without a day of rest. Additionally, New York has played 21 of their last 26 games Over the Total after playing a game that finished above the number. This team returns home where they are scoring 4.0 Goals-Per-Game. The Over is 15-5-1 in their last 21 games on home ice. Some of the issue is goaltending for all these Overs. Their top goalie, Jaroslav Halak who will be between the pipes tonight, has a mediocre 3.0 Goals-Against-Average with a middling .913 save percentage on home ice this season. Moving forward, the Islanders have played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total against teams with a losing record. New York has also played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total against fellow Metropolitan Division opponents. And the Islanders will be playing with revenge on their minds after their 4-3 loss at Pittsburgh back on December 7th. Not only has New York then played 10 of their last 15 games Over the Total when looking to avenge a loss to their opponent but they have also played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total when their opponent scored at least four goals in that victory.

Pittsburgh (20-19-2) has lost three of their last four games with their 4-0 shutout loss to Carolina last night. The Penguins have played 4 straight games Over the Total after a loss by at least three goals — and the Over is 6-2-1 in their last 9 games after a loss on home ice by at least three goals. The Over is also 6-1-1 in their last 8 games when playing without a day of rest. Sidney Crosby has not scored a goal in his last eight games while managing just three assists over that span — but that means he is time bomb when it comes to the offensive fury that is likely to come. The Penguins will likely need to score goals tonight with backup Tristan Jarry serving as goaltender. Jarry has been a surprise with his 2.36 GAA along with a .922 save percentage  — but those numbers are likely not to be sustainable as teams get a book on him. This will be the second time he has faced this Islanders team. Pittsburgh’s defense has been faulty this season — they are allowing 3.56 Goals-Per-Game on the road this year. The Over is also 7-3-1 in the Pens’ last 11 games against teams with a losing record. And in the last 5 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Over the Total 4 times. 25* NHL Pre-All Star Game Metropolitan Division Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Penguins (51) and the New York Islanders (52). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 7:00 PM ET on Tuesday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Hofstra Pride (525) and the Northeastern Huskies (526). Hofstra (7-6) has lost three straight games after their 90-87 loss at William & Mary on Saturday as a 2-point underdog. The Pride have then played 5 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 5 straight games Over the Total after a point spread loss. Now Hofstra stays on the road where they have played 5 straight games Over the Total — and they have played 5 straight road games Over the Total against teams with a winning record at home. The Pride allow their home hosts to make 50.6% of their shots. That is one of the reasons why they have played 12 of their last 15 road games Over the Total as an underdog getting 6 or less points.

Northeastern (8-5) looks to build off their 81-70 won at James Madison on Saturday. The Huskies forced only 8 turnovers in that game — and they have then played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a game where they did not force more than 8 turnovers. Now Northeastern returns home where the Over is 3-1-1 in their last 5 games on their home court. The Huskies have also played a decisive 50 of their last 78 home games Over the Total when playing just their second game in a week. Additionally, Northeastern has played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. Lastly, in the last 13 meetings between these two teams at Northeastern, the game finished Over the Total 9 times. 25* CBB Colonial Athletic Association Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Hofstra Pride (525) and the Northeastern Huskies (526). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:45 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the Sugar Bowl between the Alabama Crimson Tide (273) and the Clemson Tigers (274). Clemson (12-1) has won six straight games after defeating Miami (FL) in the ACC Championship Game by a 38-3 score back on December 2nd. The Tigers rushed for only 77 yards in that game — but they have then played 4 straight games Over the Total after rushing for at least 100 yards in their last game. Clemson ranks 35.4 PPG this season which was 20th in the FBS — and they did not experience any drop-off when playing away from home where they scored 35.3 PPG. Of course, the Tigers have played the Crimson Tide for the National Championship in each of the last two seasons with the final score seeing 66 and 85 combined points. Despite the Total being a few points lower than the 51 or so points assigned as the Total for those two games, I see little reason why this Semifinals showdown will not be another shootout. Certainly both coaches will assume that scoring 30 points will be a prerequisite for winning this game. Clemson has played 4 straight games Over the Total when playing in the month of January. And in their last 6 games played on speedy field turf, the Tigers have played 5 of these games Over the Total.

At 5:00 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the Rose Bowl between the Georgia Bulldogs (271) and the Oklahoma Sooners (272). Georgia (12-1) reached the College Football Playoffs with their 28-7 win over Auburn in the SEC Championship Game as a 2-point favorite. The Bulldogs have then played 10 of their last 13 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 16 of their last 21 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. Additionally, Georgia has played 13 of their last 18 games Under the Total after allowing 20 points or less in their last game. The Bulldogs defense dominated this game as they held Auburn to just 259 yards of offense. Georgia has then played 13 of their last 18 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 275 yards in their last game. The Bulldogs allowed only 145 passing yards in that game as well — and they have then played a decisive 21 of their last 26 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 170 passing yards in their last game. Moving forward, Georgia has played 4 straight games Under the Total against teams outside the SEC. And in their last 8 games played on a neutral field, the Bulldogs have played 6 of these games Under the Total.

Oklahoma (12-1) has won eight games in a row with their 41-17 win over TCU in the Big 12 Championship Game. The Sooners have not committed a turnover in four straight games — and they have then played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after not committing a turnover in their last game. It may be tempting to expect the Over given Oklahoma’s high-powered offense that has scored at least 38 points in four straight games. But the Sooners have played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after scoring at least 37 points in three straight games. Additionally, Oklahoma has generated at least 461 yards in all their games this season — and they have then played 11 of the last 16 games Under the Total after gaining at least 450 yards in five straight contests. The Sooners have played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. They also have played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total against teams from the SEC. Furthermore, Oklahoma has played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total when playing on a neutral field including five of their last six games Under the Total in Bowl games. Together, these team trends produce our specific 93-34 combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Georgia-Oklahoma O/U Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the Rose Bowl between the Georgia Bulldogs (271) and the Oklahoma Sooners (272). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 1:00 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the Citrus Bowl between the LSU Tigers (269) and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (270). LSU (9-3) has won three straight games with their 45-21 win over Texas A&M to close out their regular season. The Tigers have then seen the Under go 9-4-2 in their last 15 games after a straight-up win. The Under is also 6-1-2 in LSU’s last 9 games after a victory by at least 20 points. And in their last 6 games after scoring at least 40 points, the Under is 4-0-2. Additionally, LSU has played 6 straight games Under the Total after a game at home where they won by at least 17 points. They generated a whopping 601 total yards against the Aggies while averaging 6.90 Yards-Per-Play — but they have then played 10 straight games Under the Total after a game where they averaged at least 6.75 YPP. LSU averaged just 21.8 PPG in their six games away from home. But their defense travels as they held the six teams they faced away from home to just 299.5 total YPG which was even lower than the 311.7 total YPG mark which was 11th best in the nation. The Under is 13-6-1 in the Tigers’ last 20 games against teams with a winning record. And in their last 8 games against teams outside the SEC, the Under is 5-2-1.

At 12:00 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the Outback Bowl between the South Carolina Gamecocks (265) and the Michigan Wolverines (266). South Carolina (8-4) looks to bounce-back from a 34-10 loss to Clemson back on November 25th to close out their regular season. The Gamecocks have then played 5 straight games Over the Total after a double-digit loss at home. South Carolina has also played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss. The Gamecocks managed only 207 yards of offense against the thought Tigers defense — but the Over is 11-5-1 in their last 17 games after failing to generate more than 275 yards in their last game. And in their last 9 games after failing to score more than 20 points, South Carolina has played 7 of these games Over the Total.

Michigan (8-4) has lost two straight games with their 31-20 loss to Ohio State as a 12.5-point underdog back on November 25th. The Wolverines have then played 4 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up loss. Michigan has also seen the Over go 3-0-1 in their last 4 games after a point spread setback. The team should certainly benefit from the return of redshirt freshman quarterback Brandon Peters. The first Jim Harbaugh recruit under center for the team was effective when taking over late in the season. He completed 37 of 64 passes for 486 yards and four TD passes before suffering a concussion in the Wisconsin game that kept him out of that rivalry game with the Buckeyes. Moving forward, the Over is 15-6-1 in Michigan’s last 22 games against teams with a winning record. The Over is also 6-1-1 in the Wolverines’ last 8 games against teams outside the Big Ten. Additionally, the Wolverines have played 10 of their last 12 games Over the Total when playing on a neutral field. And in their last 10 Bowl games, Michigan has played 8 of these games Over the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 81-20-4 combined angle for this situation. 20* CFB New Year’s Day Afternoon Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the Outback Bowl between the South Carolina Gamecocks (265) and the Michigan Wolverines (266).

At 4:25 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the San Francisco 49ers (331) and the Los Angeles Rams (332). Los Angeles (11-4) will be resting a few key players — including quarterback Jared Goff and running back Todd Gurley — in this game with their slot in the NFC Playoffs as either the third or fourth seed secured. That means that the QB for this game will be Sean Mannion while the bell cow running back will be Malcolm Brown. While those names are not encouraging, the Rams defense should still be in good shape under defensive coordinator Wade Phillips. In fact, Phillips will want to see many adjustments made from the 41-39 game that the Rams won in the first meeting between these two teams back on September 21st. Los Angeles enters this game coming off their 27-23 win at Tennessee last week as a 5.5-point favorite. The Rams have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after winning a game on the road where they failed to cover the point spread as the favorite. Los Angeles has also played 9 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a game where at least 50 combined points were scored. The Rams return home where they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total. Los Angeles has also played 10 of their last 12 home games Under the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. And in their last 8 home games with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range, the Rams have played 6 of these games Under the Total.

San Francisco (5-10) has won four straight games with their 44-33 upset win over Jacksonville as a 4-point underdog. The Jimmy Garoppolo era is off to a fine start with the QB still undefeated as a starter after tearing up a very good Jaguars defense by completing 21 of 30 passes for 242 yards. While some bettors may expect another big day from the 49ers’ offense, I look for the San Fran defense to play much better this week as they look to build for next season. The 49ers have played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after allowing at least 30 points in their last game. Now San Francisco goes back on the road where they have played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total. And in their last 5 games against fellow NFC West rivals, the 49ers have played 4 of these games Under the Total. 25* NFC West Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the San Francisco 49ers (331) and the Los Angeles Rams (332). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 1:00 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (315) and the Indianapolis Colts (316). Houston (4-11) has lost five straight games after their 34-6 loss to Pittsburgh on Christmas Day. The Texans managed only 227 yards of offense behind quarterbacks T.J. Yates and Taylor Heinicke — and the team will be without their All-World wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. As it is, Houston has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a double-digit loss at home. The Texans have also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns. Additionally, Houston has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after failing to generate at least 250 yards of offense. And in their last 10 games after failing to score at least 15 points, the Texans have played 8 of these games Under the Total. The team had to resign QB Josh Johnson off the streets this week with both their quarterbacks going through the concussion protocol this week. Yates has been cleared to start — but he completed just 19 of 47 passes for 211 yards and a QB Rating of 50.9 in his Houston has not scored a point in the first-half in their last two games — and they have then played 21 of their last 28 road games Under the Total after failing to score more than a touchdown in the first-half in two straight games. 

Indianapolis (3-12) has lost six straight games with their 23-16 loss in Baltimore last week in a game where they managed only 296 yards of offense. The Colts have then played 6 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Indianapolis has also played 22 of their last 29 games Under the Total in the month of December. Now Indy returns home where they have played 4 straight games Under the Total — and they have also played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total at home against teams with a losing record on the road. With rumors that the franchise will not be retaining head coach Chuck Pagano, the team may mail in their effort this afternoon. As it is, the Colts have played 4 straight games Under the Total against AFC South rivals. Lastly, these two teams have played 8 straight games Under the Total when facing off in Indianapolis. 25* AFC South Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (315) and the Indianapolis Colts (316). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the Orange Bowl between the Wisconsin Badgers (263) and the Miami Hurricanes (264). Miami (FL) (10-2) has lost two straight games with their 38-3 loss to Clemson in the ACC Championship Game as a 12.5-point underdog. The Hurricanes have then played 5 straight games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Miami has not scored more than 14 points in their last two games — and they have then played 6 straight games Under the Total after failing to score more than two touchdowns in two straight games. The Hurricanes will be playing on their home field at Hard Rock Stadium — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total on their home field. And in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record, Miami has played 6 of these games Under the Total. Additionally, the Hurricanes have played a decisive 45 of their last 65 games Under the Total against teams outside the ACC. And in the last 4 Bowl games, Miami has played all 4 games Under the Total.

Wisconsin (12-1) looks to bounce-back from their 27-21 loss to Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship Game. Look for this Badgers team to play much better on defense — they still rank number one in the nation by limiting their opponents to just 253.2 total YPG. In their six road games this season, Wisconsin allowed only 12.8 PPG while holding their opponents to just 284.5 total YPG. The Badgers have played 4 of their last 5 road games Under the Total as a favorite of 7 points or less. Wisconsin has also played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total as a favorite in the 3.5 to 10 point range. Additionally, the Badgers have played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total against teams outside the Big Ten.

At 8:05 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Minnesota Timberwolves (505) and the Milwaukee Bucks (506). Milwaukee (17-15) has lost two straight games as well as five of their last seen contests with their 115-106 loss to Chicago on Tuesday as a 7.5-point favorite. The Bucks have then seen the Over go 6-0-1 in their last 7 games after a straight-up  loss — and the Over is 6-0-1 in their last 7 games after a point spread loss. Additionally, the Over is 13-3-1 in Milwaukee’s last 17 games after allowing at least 100 points in their last game. The Bucks lost that game despite holding the Bulls to just a 43.7% shooting percentage which was their best defensive effort in their last seven games. Now Milwaukee returns home where they have seen the Over go 7-0-1 in their last 8 games on their home court. And in their last 5 games against Western Conference opponents, the Bucks have played all 5 games Over the Total.

Minnesota (22-13) has won five straight games with their 128-125 win over Denver last night. The Timberwolves have then played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total when playing without a day of rest. Minnesota has also played 4 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 5 straight games Over the Total after scoring at least 100 points in their last game. And while the T-Wolves were 4.5-point favorites in that game, the Over is then 37-13-1 in their last 51 games after a point spread loss. Now Minnesota goes back on the road where they have played 4 straight games Over the Total — and they have also played 4 straight games Over the Total against teams with a winning record on their home court. 20* NBA Over/Under Situational Special with Over the Total in the game between the Minnesota Timberwolves (505) and the Milwaukee Bucks (506).

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Oakland Raiders (131) and the Philadelphia Eagles (132). Philadelphia (12-2) enters this game coming off a 34-29 win in New York against the Giants on the heels of a 43-35 win in Los Angeles against the Rams. Those two games went Over the Total by 22 and 31 points respectively which may make it tempting for some bettors to expect another Over tonight. There are a host of empirical situational angles that help inform my decisions that do not end up being documented in my Reports but I wanted to highlight this one that identifies the contrarian play regarding the Under with the Eagles. After the first month of the season in games with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range, when one team has played their last two games Over the Total by at least two touchdowns, these games finished Under the Total in 34 of the last 44 situations (77%) where these conditions applied. The Eagles should see a much better effort from their defense after giving up 64 combined points over their last two games. Philly has played 5 of the last 6 games Under the Total after a game where at least 50 combined points were scored — and they have also played 15 of their last 18 home games Under the Total after playing two straight games where at least 50 combined points were scored. Additionally, the Eagles have played 37 of their last 54 games Under the Total after a game where at least 60 combined points were scored — and they have played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a game where at least 60 combined points were scored in two straight contests. Philadelphia has also played 10 of their last 11 games Under the Total after two straight wins on the road. Returning home after playing a rigorous three straight games on the road should help this defense. On their home field, the Eagles are allowing only 15.2 PPG along with just 278.3 total YPG — and they have not given up more than 24 points at home all season. Furthermore, the Eagles have played 11 of their last 18 home games Under the Total as the favorite which includes playing their last two games Under the Total when favored in the 7.5 to 14 point range.

Oakland (6-8) enters this game coming off their 20-17 loss to Dallas back on December 17th. The Raiders have then played a decisive 39 of their last 57 road games Under the Total after a loss at home. This team struggles to score when away from home. Oakland is averaging just 17.0 PPG while generating a mere 292.5 total YPG when on the road. They have played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total when on the road. And things are likely to get even tougher for Derek Carr and this offense with their Pro Bowl left tackle Donald Penn going on Injured Reserve with a foot injury. Penn will be missing his first game since the 2007 season after being a rock on the offensive line for this team. On the plus side, the Raiders are quietly playing much better on defensive side of the football. They are allowing only 334.3 total YPG over their last three contests. Lastly, Oakland has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total in the month of December — and they have played 6 straight games Under the Total when on the road in the last four weeks of the regular season. 25* NFL Monday Night Football Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Oakland Raiders (131) and the Philadelphia Eagles (132). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (129) and the Houston Texans (130). Houston (4-10) managed only 186 yards of offense last week in their 45-7 loss to Jacksonville as a 10.5-point underdog. Backup quarterback T.J. Yates managed to complete only 12 of 31 passes for 128 yards. The Texans have then played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total after failing to score more than 14 points in their last game. Houston has also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns. And the Texans have played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Moving forward, Houston has played 13 of their last 18 games Under the Total in the month of December.

Pittsburgh (11-3) saw their eight-game winning streak snapped last Sunday with their heartbreaking 27-24 loss to New England. The Steelers have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. And while Pittsburgh gained 413 yards in that game, they have then seen the Under go 13-4-1 in their last 18 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. Their offense will be without the dynamic Antonio Brown for this game — and the speedster has been catching almost every literal ball thrown his way this season. While the Steelers still have weapons on offense, losing someone of Brown’s immense talent is a big blow. The team is getting cornerback Joe Haden back in their secondary — and that will help shore up a pass defense that has been porous in his absence. Now Pittsburgh goes back on the road where they have played 22 of their last 28 games Under the Total. The Steelers have also played 10 of their last 11 road games Under the Total against teams with a losing record at home. and in their last 11 road games as the favorite, Pittsburgh has played 9 of these games Under the Total. 10* NFL Christmas Day Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (129) and the Houston Texans (130). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 3:05 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Cleveland Cavaliers (703) and the Golden State Warriors (704). Over six months after last year’s NBA Finals, it is safe to give away a trade secret: I was pounding the Over in the NBA Finals because the betting public and the oddsmakers were behind on appreciating the style of play that the Cavaliers were deciding to engage against the Warriors. While I expect more of the same for this early regular season game in this marquee television matchup, too much will have changed by the time the 2018 NBA Finals rolls around to ensure near automatic Overs if there is a third sequel between these two teams. The oddsmakers set the number rather high for Game One of the NBA Finals last year at 224.5 — and the Under hit with Cleveland shooting just 34.9% from the field in a Golden State blowout. The Total dropped to 222 and we pounded the Over in what turned out to be the Warriors’ 132-113 victory. The number jumped to 226.5 for Game Three and we still took the Over and got there with Golden State’s 118-113 victory. For Game Four, the number climbed to 227 yet we kept the Over going and won easily with the Cavs’ 137-116 victory. That finally prompted the oddsmakers to traverse the 230 Total threshold with the number placed at 231. We still took the Over and were rewarded with a 129-120 score with the Warriors closing out that series. With this Total for a regular season game with a reconfigured Cavs’ roster facing a Golden State team without Steph Curry who is injured, lets still pound the Over. The Warriors side of this equation is rudimentary. Golden State (26-7) saw their eleven-game winning streak snapped on Saturday in a 96-81 loss to Denver despite being an 8-point favorite. The Warriors shot just 38.6% from the field which was their worst shooting effort in their last twenty-two games. Expect Golden State to come out firing on all cylinders. Not only has Golden State played 6 straight games Over the Total after an upset loss but they have played 14 of their last 16 games Over the Total after an upset loss by at least 15 points as a home favorite. While the team certainly misses Curry, they still have plenty of offensive firepower with Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson along with Draymond Green and Shaun Livingston who are both listed as probable after dealing with nagging  injuries. The Warriors have played 4 straight games Over the Total against teams with a winning record.

Cleveland (24-9) should see LeBron James and company continue to deploy the same strategy they established last season to defeat the Warriors — especially with Golden State missing Curry and this Cavs’ team yet to incorporate Isaiah Thomas into their rotation (which might change everything). Cleveland’s basic plan is to use their depth to out-run and out-gun their opponents. They entered the NBA Finals last year scoring 120.7 points per 100 possessions which was the top mark in the last 40 years in the NBA Playoffs. They shoot tons of 3s — they entered last year’s Finals with 41.9% of their field goal attempts to be behind the arc. Granted, I am not even looking at what the numbers are this year for Cleveland because I don’t think it matters. This is how the Cavs wanted to play Golden State last year and they have not changed their roster in a way to change this formula. Defense was the biggest issue for this team last year — particularly in transition. Cleveland plans to sacrifice defense for easier transition points when the opponent does miss while they take and make more 3-pointers than their opponents. In other words, they try to out-do the Warriors’ style — and that is why we get huge numbers with the Over/Under that the Over still shatters. The Cavaliers enter this game having won six of their last seven games with their 115-112 win over Chicago back on December 21st. They shot 51.2% from the field in that win which was their fifth game in their last six contests where they made at least 50% of their shots. But Cleveland allowed the Bulls to make 55.3% of their shots after allowing the Bucks to make 52.4% of their shots in their previous game. Not coincidentally, the Cavs’ defense is missing one of their best defenders in Iman Shumpert who is dealing with a knee injury. The Cavaliers have failed to cover the point spread in five of their last six games — and they have then played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total after failing to cover the point spread in five or six of their last seven games. Cleveland has also paled 31 of their last 47 games Over the Total after a game where at least 220 combined points were scored. Furthermore, the Cavs have played 25 of their last 36 road games Over the Total with the number set in the 210 to 219 point range. Cleveland has played 4 straight games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. They have also played 9 of their last 12 games Over the Total against Western Conference opponents. Lastly, the Cavaliers have played 9 of their last 11 games Over the Total when playing with revenge. 25* NBA Pre-All Star Break ABC-TV Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Cleveland Cavaliers (703) and the Golden State Warriors (704).

This game first consolation match on the last day of this holiday tournament in Hawai’i will be played at 7:30 AM local time to accommodate the early afternoon tipoff on the east coast for the ESPNU national audience. Expect both teams to be a bit sluggish for this one. Akron (6-4) has lost two straight games after their 64-62 loss to Princeton on Saturday as a 5.5-point underdog. The Zips have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a point spread win — and they have played 9 of their last 11 road games Under the Total after a point spread win.

And in their last 21 road games against non-conference foes, Akron has played 15 of these games Under the Total. And in their last 7 games played on a neutral court, the Zips have played 6 of these games Under the Total.

Davidson (4-6) has lost three straight games with their 79-71 upset loss at Hawai’i who is the host team for this event on Saturday. The Wildcats shot just 38.1% from the field in that loss. While I sometimes expect the Regression Gods to swoop in an correct outlier efforts like that, in this case, I suspect those Gods will be busy elsewhere and not appearing in Hawai’i before 9:30 AM local time. As it is, Davidson has played 9 of their last 13 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and the Under is 18-8-1 in their last 27 games after a point spread setback. Additionally, the Wildcats have played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total after an upset loss. Davidson has covered the point spread once in their last three games — and they have played 22 of their last 30 games Under the Total when they have failed to cover the point spread in two of their last three games. Their game with Hawai’i did finish Over the 141 point Total — but they have played 22 of their last 30 games Under the Total after a game that finished above the number. Lastly, the Wildcats have played 12 of their last 16 games Under the Total as a favorite on a neutral court by 6.5 to 12 points. 25* CBB Diamond’s Head Classic Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Akron Zips (711) and the Davidson Wildcats (712).

At 8:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (103) and the Green Bay Packers (104). One final check of the weather indicates it will be cold in Green Bay tonight with temperature in the teens — but there should not be any snow with only a 10% chance of precipitation. Generally, these weather conditions lead to Overs as Green Bay (7-7) has played 6 straight games Over the Total in the month of December. The Packers enter this game coming off a 34-21 loss in Carolina last Sunday as a 3-point underdog. Green Bay has then played 4 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a point spread victory. Additionally, while the Packers gave up 387 yards in that loss to the Panthers, they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last game. Aaron Rodgers was placed on Injured Reserve after that game so it will be a Brent Hundley Joint tonight — but he has completed 69.1% of his passes over his last three starts while leading an offense that averaged 27 PPG. The Packers have played four straight games that finished Over the Total — and they have then played 11 of their last 14 games after playing at least two straight games that finished Over the Total. Additionally, Green Bay has played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. The Packers have also played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total at home in Lambeau Field. And in their last 14 games as the underdog, Green Bay has played 11 of these games Over the Total.

Minnesota (11-3) has won nine of their last ten games after their 34-7 win over Cincinnati as a 12.5-point favorite last week.

Additionally, Minnesota has played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after allowing less than 15 points in their last game. The Vikings held the Bengals to just 161 yards of offense in that game — but they have then played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 250 yards in their last game. This team is getting sensational play from Case Keenum who started the year as the likely 3rd string quarterback when Teddy Bridgewater returned from his torn ACL injury. Now Keenum has made himself a boat load of money — and he actually leads the NFL in Passer Rating since Week 10 this season. Lastly, Minnesota has played 4 of their last 5 games on the road Over the Total. 10* NFL Saturday Night Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (103) and the Green Bay Packers (104).

What helps the defense succeed is keeping them off the field by running the ball on offense. Appalachian State rushed for 357 yards again the Ragin’ Cajuns in that last game.

Baltimore generated 376 yards in that contest — and they have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game.

Indianapolis (3-11) has lost five straight games with their 25-13 loss to Denver as a 3-point underdog back on December 14th.

And while the Colts allowed a whopping 462 yards to the Broncos in that loss, they have then played 9 of their last 10 road games Over the Total after allowing at least 400 yards in their last game. Lastly, the Over is supported by an empirical angle that has been 78% effective one the last five seasons that is particularly on point for this situation. Indianapolis scores only 16.1 PPG while not having scored more than 17 points in five straight games — and in games involving a road team that does not score more than 17 PPG and who has to topped 17 points in two straight games, these games finished Over the Total in 28 of the last 36 situations where these conditions applied. 10* NFL Saturday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the  Indianapolis Colts (101) and the Baltimore Ravens (102).

At 7:05 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Chicago Bulls (503) and the Cleveland Cavaliers (504). Chicago (10-20) has been on fire since getting power forward Nikolo Mirotic back on the court after missing the start of the season due to injuries sustained when he got into a fight with teammate Bobby Portis. The Bulls are undefeated since Mirotic returned to the lineup — and they have won seven straight games after their 112-94 win over Orlando last night as a 5.5-point favorite. Chicago is scoring 111.0 PPG over their last five games while making 47.7% of their shots as they clearly are buoyed with Mirotic’s presence down low. For the season, the Bulls are scoring 99.3 PPG on a 43.5% shooting percentage so Mirotic’s impact has been impressive. The Magic shot just 39.3% from the field against Chicago which was the Bulls’ best defensive effort in their last eighteen games — so they are likely to come back to Earth tonight when facing LeBron James and company at least on the defensive end of the court. As it is, Chicago has palyed 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a point spread victory. The Bulls have also played 8 of their last 11 games Over the Total when playing without rest and none of their players logged in more than 29 minutes last night in their easy victory. Chicago goes on the road for this contest where they have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total. The Bulls have also played 4 of their last 5 road games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage over 60% on their home court.

Cleveland (23-9) looks to bounce-back from their 119-116 upset loss in Milwaukee as a that snapped a five-game winning streak. The Cavaliers have then played 18 of their last 26 games Over the Total after an upset loss. Cleveland has also played 29 of their last 40 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 13 of their last 17 games Over the Total after a loss decided by 6 points or less. The Cavaliers have shot at leas 50% from the field in four of their last five games but they have also failed to cover the point spread in four of those last five games. Cleveland has then played 15 of their last 19 home games Over the Total after failing to cover the point spread in at least three of their last four games. The Over is also 15-5-1 in the Cavaliers’ last 21 home games against teams with a losing record on the road. Over those last five games, the Cavs are scoring 115.0 PPG on 51.2% shooting — but they have allowed those five opponents to shoot 47.4% from the field while scoring 108.8 PPG themselves. Moving forward, Cleveland has played 20 of their last 27 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage below 40% overall. And in their last 36 games as a double-digit favorite, the Cavaliers have played 24 of these games Over the Total. 25* NBA Pre-All Star Break Central Division Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Chicago Bulls (503) and the Cleveland Cavaliers (504).

The Zips have then played 26 of their last 36 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Akron has also played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. The Zips have also played 13 of their last 16 games Under the Total after allowing at least 40 points in their last game. And while Akron allowed 561 total yards to the Rockets, they have then played 26 of their last 39 games Under the Total after allowing at least 475 yards in their last game. The Zips have played better defense over the second half of the season and it was that unit that stepped up to help them upset Ohio and win the MAC East title. Akron has played 8 of their last 10 road games Under the Total. And in their last 4 games against teams outside the MAC, they have played all 4 games Under the Total.

The Buccaneers have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Tampa Bay allowed 434 yards in that game — but they have then seen the Under go 7-2-1 in their last 10 games after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest.

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Dallas Cowboys (329) and the Oakland Raiders (330). Dallas (7-6) looks to build off their 30-10 win in New York against the Giants last week. The Cowboys have found their offense again as they dialed up 454 yards of offense behind a rushing attack that generated 122 yards of offense. Getting Tyron Smith healthy again at left tackle has made a big difference for this team as they have rushed the ball 73 times over their last two games for 304 rushing yards. Rushing the football tonight will keep the clock moving and help our Under tonight. As it is, Dallas has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after they gained at least 350 yards in their last game.

At 8:25 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Chargers (305) and the Kansas City Chiefs (306). Los Angeles (7-6) has won four straight games — as well as seven of their last seven games — with their 30-13 win over Washington last Sunday as 6-point favorites. The Under is then 25-9-1 in the Chargers last 35 games after a straight-up win — and the Under is also 5-1-1 in their last 7 games after a point spread victory. Los Angeles has also played 5 straight games Under the Total after a win by at least two touchdowns. And in the Chargers’ last 4 games after not allowing more than two touchdowns, the Under is 3-0-1. Since Week Five, their defense has held opposing quarterbacks to the second lowest Passer Rating in the league. And since Week 11, the Chargers boards the best scoring defense in the league by allowing just 13.3 PPG. LA did generate 484 yards in that game behind Philip Rivers — but the Under is then 7-2-1 in their last 10 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. Now the Chargers go back on the road where they have played 4 straight games Under the Total. And in their last 8 games against fellow AFC opponents, Los Angeles has played 7 of these games Under the Total.

Kansas City (7-6) enters this game coming off a 26-15 win over Oakland last week as a 4.5-point favorite. The Chiefs had scored 31 points the previous week in their 38-31 loss in overtime in New York against the Jets — but they have then played 7 straight games Under the Total after scoring at least 25 points in two straight games.

At 4:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Chicago Bears (303) and the Detroit Lions (304). Detroit (7-6) enters this game coming off their 24-21 win in Tampa Bay last week in a pick ‘em game. QB Matthew Stafford was outstanding in that contest as he completed 36 of 44 passes for 381 yards — but the Lions have then played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total after passing for at least 250 yards in their last game. But despite that nice offensive effort, Detroit is scoring only 22.3 PPG over their last three games. One of the concerns for the Lions is their inability to run the football as they rank last in the league by averaging only 76.3 rushing YPG. Over their last four games, Detroit has not rushed for more than 78 yards — and they have played 8 of their last 12 games Under the Total after failing to rush for at least 100 yards in four straight games. On the other side of the football, the Lions allowed 267 passing yards to the Bucs in that victory — but they have then played 8 of their last 11 games Under the Total after allowing at least 250 passing yards in their last contest. Furthermore, Detroit has played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total against teams with a losing record.

Chicago (4-9) enters this game coming off their 33-7 win in Cincinnati last Sunday as a 6-point underdog. The Bears have then played 17 of their last 26 ames Under the Total after a double-digit upset victory as an underdog. The Bears controlled the clock for this game as they had the football for 38:09 of this game which helped them churn out 482 yards of offense. This Time of Possession advantage helped them keep the Bengals off the field — and Cincy had just 234 yards of offense in that contest. Chicago won the first down battle in that contest as well by a 29-14 margin — and they have then played 10 of their last 16 games Under the Total after a game where they dominated Time of Possession by holding the ball for at least 34 minutes while also generating at least 24 first downs. Additionally, the Bears have played 14 of their last 22 games Under the Total after outgaining their opponents by at least +150 net yards. With the Chicago offense stabilizing, their strong defense can flex their muscles. For the season, the Bears rank 11th in the NFL by allowing only 325.5 total YPG. On the road, Chicago is giving up 15.8 PPG along with 317.2 total YPG. The Bears will need their defense to shine in this one when considering that they score only 16.0 PPG on the road while averaging just 314.8 total YPG. Chicago has played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total with the number set in the 42.5 to 49 range. The Bears have also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total against fellow NFC opponents. Lastly, Chicago has played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total as an underdog — including five of their last seven games Under the Total when an underdog getting 3.5 to 9.5 points. 25* NFL NFC North Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Chicago Bears (303) and the Detroit Lions (304). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 2:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Georgia State Panthers (203) and the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (204). Western Kentucky (6-6) limps into this game having lost five of their last six games after suffering a 41-17 loss at Florida International on November 24th as a field goal favorite. The Hilltoppers have then played 9 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a double-digit loss to a conference rival. Western Kentucky has also played 3 straight Unders after suffering an upset loss by at least 17 points. The Hilltoppers have also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after failing to score more than 20 points in their last game. This team has seen their offensive production regress this season under first-year head coach Mike Sanford despite his previous experience as the offensive coordinator at Notre Dame. The Western Kentucky offense returned senior QB Mike White from an offense that averaged 45.5 PPG — but they saw that production drop by almost 20 PPG as they are scoring just 26.2 PPG this season. Furthermore, the Under is 6-2-1 in their last 9 games against Sun Belt Conference opponents.

Georgia State (6-5) has lost two straight games after their 24-10 loss to Idaho as a 7.5-point favorite back on December 2nd. The Panthers have then played 11 of their last 16 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread setback. Additionally, Georgia State has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after scoring 20 points or less in their last game. Offense is certainly an issue for this team as they ranked 118th in the FBS by scoring just 19.7 PPG — and they also ranked just 86th in the nation by averaging 385.2 total YPG. Moving forward, the Panthers have played 15 of their last 19 games Under the Total in the second-half of the season. Georgia State has also played 12 of their last 16 games Under the Total with the number set in the 49.5 to 56 point range. And in their last 5 games against teams outside the Sun Belt Conference, the Panthers have played 4 of these games Under the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 73-17-1 combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Over/Under Situational Special with Under the Total in the game between the Under the Total in the game between the Georgia State Panthers (203) and the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (204).

At 7:35 PM ET on Friday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Utah Jazz (811) and the Boston Celtics (812). Boston (24-6) has won seven of their last nine games with their 124-118 win over Denver on Wednesday. The Celtics have then played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 6 straight games Over the Total after a narrow win by 6 points or less. The Over is also 9-2-1 in their last 12 games when playing with one day of rest. Now this team stays at home where they are averaging 106.5 PPG — and they have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total. Boston has also played 19 of their last 25 home games Over the Total after winning six or seven of their last eight games. And the Over is 25-10-1 in the Celtics’ last 36 home games against teams with a losing record on the road. The team is likely to get Al Horford back on the court as he is listed as probable with his knee injury. That helps them on offense — and the fact that Marcus Morris will still be out with his knee issue takes away one of their better post defenders. Boston has played 11 of their last 15 games Over the Total as a favorite laying 3.5 to 9.5 points. Additionally, the Celtics have played 15 of their last 20 games Over the Total with the number set in the 190 to 199.5 point range. And in their last 5 games against Western Conference opponents, the game has finished Over the Total 4 times.

Utah (13-15) has lost four straight games with their 103-100 loss in Chicago to the Bulls as a 5.5-point favorite. The Jazz have then played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. This team looks to have Joe Johnson back as he is listed as probable despite his wrist injury to give the Jazz another offensive weapon. Now they stay on the road out east — and they are allowing home teams to shoot 48.4% from the field. Utah has played 7 of their last 9 road games Over the Total. The Jazz have also played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage over 60%. Utah has played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total against Eastern Conference opponents. And in the last 33 meetings between these two teams, the Over is 21-10-3. 25* NBA Pre-All Star Break Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Utah Jazz (811) and the Boston Celtics (812). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Denver Broncos (301) and the Indianapolis Colts (302). Denver (4-9) snapped their eight-game losing streak on Sunday with their 23-0 shutout win over the Jets as a 1-point home underdog. The Broncos held the Jets to just 100 yards of offense. Denver has been a disaster on offense as they have not been able to develop a quarterback between Trevor Siemian, Payton Lynch and Brock Osweiler — but the Broncos defense remains outstanding. Despite little help on offense in staying off the field, the Denver defense remains number one in the league by holding their opponents to just 280.5 total YPG — and they rank 2nd in the NFL in passing defense (191.1 passing YPG) and 4th in the league in rushing defense (89.5 rushing YPG). The Broncos held the Jets to just 41 passing yards last week — and they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 150 passing yards in their last game. Denver has also played 6 of their last 8 road games Under the Total against teams with a losing record at home. Additionally, the Broncos have played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total against teams with a losing record. Denver has played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total in the month of December. And in their last 28 games as the favorite, the Broncos have played 19 of these games Under the Total.

Indianapolis (3-10) looks to bounce-back from their 13-7 loss in the blizzard in Buffalo on Sunday as a 3.5-point underdog. The Colts have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. QB Jacoby Brissett managed to complete only 11 of 22 passes for 69 yards in that game — and Indianapolis have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after failing to pass for at least 150 yards in their last game. While the snowy conditions made it difficult for both offenses in that game, the fact remains that this Indy offenses lack weapons at the skill positions as well as a decent offensive line to protect a backup albeit promising quarterback in Brissett. The Colts are 30th in the NFL by scoring 16.3 PPG — and they are 31st in the league by averaging just 290.7 total YPG. Now Indianapolis returns home where they have played 9 of their last 12 games Under the Total. The Colts have also played 6 of their last 8 home games Under the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. Additionally, Indianapolis has played 29 of their last 27 games Under the Total in the month of December.

Portland has also played 4 straight games Under the Total after scoring at least 100 points in their last game. Additionally, the Trail Blazers have played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total when playing with one day of rest.

And in their last 9 games against Eastern Conference opponents, then Trail Blazers have played 7 of these games Under the Total.

Miami (13-13) has won two straight games with their 107-82 win in Milwaukee as a 1.5-point underdog. The Heat shot 56.1% from the field which was their best shooting mark of the season. But Miami has then played 24 of their last 32 games Under the Total after scoring at least 100 points in their last game. The Heat have also played 12 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a double-digit victory. Additionally, Miami has played 20 of their last 28 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 19 of their last 26 games Under the Total after a point spread victory.

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the New England Patriots (133) and the Miami Dolphins (134). New England (10-2) enters this game coming off their 23-3 win in Buffalo last Sunday. The Patriots have then played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a straight-up win. New England generated 435 yards of offense in that contest with the Bills — but they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last contest. The team will be without tight end Rob Gronkowski in this game which takes away Tom Brady’s security blanket. Brady’s numbers are markedly better with Gronkowski on the field. In his career, Brady completes 66% of his passes while averaging a robust 8.0 Yards Per Passing Attempt with a 5.29:1 touchdown to interception ration and a QB Rating of 79. But in games without Gronkowski, Brady sees those numbers drop to a 62% completion percentage with a 7.0 YPA mark and a 2.95:1 TD to interception ratio and a QBR of 63. Furthermore, South Beach has not been Brady’s favorite place to play as the Patriots are scoring just 23.8 PPG in his fifteen starts in Miami while Brady has gotten sacked 32 times while throwing 13 interceptions. New England has played 4 of their last 5 road games Under the Total — and they have played 5 straight road games Under the Total against teams with a losing record at home The Patriots have also played 10 of their last 12 games Under the Total when playing on grass.

The Dolphins have played 5 of their last 7 home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. Together, these team trends produce our specific 70-26 combined angle for this situation. 25* AFC East Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the New England Patriots (133) and the Miami Dolphins (134).

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Baltimore Ravens (131) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (132). Baltimore (7-5) has won four of their last five games with their 44-20 win over Detroit last Sunday. The Ravens have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a straight-up win. Baltimore generated 370 yards of offense in that contest — and they have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. The Ravens’ defense surrounded 372 yards of offense to the Lions — and they have played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest.

Defense is an issue for this team as of late — they really miss Joe Haden in their secondary. Over their last three games, Pittsburgh is allowing 238 passing YPG which is 40 yards more than their 198 passing YPG season average entering this game. Lastly, the Over is 12-5-2 in the last 19 meetings between these two teams in Pittsburgh. 10* NFL Sunday Night Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Baltimore Ravens (131) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (132).

At 3:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Army Black Knights (103) and the Navy Midshipmen (104). Army (8-3) saw their six-game winning streak snapped in their last game back on November 18th in their 52-49 loss at North Texas. The Black Knights have then played 9 of their last 13 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Army has also played 11 of their last 13 games Under the Total after scoring at least 40 points in their last contest. The Black Knights did allow 386 passing yards in that game — but they have then played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total after allowing at least 280 passing yards in their last game. Army does have a strong defense as they ranked 30th in the FBS by allowing only 21.6 PPG. Their fundamentally sound defense has helped them see the Under go 34-16-1 in their last 51 games against teams with a winning record. The Black Knights have also played 10 of their last 11 games Under the Total as an underdog.

Navy (6-5) takes the field again for the first time since November 24th after their 24-17 loss at Houston as a 6.5-point underdog. The Midshipmen have then played 16 of their last 23 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have also played a decisive 36 of their last 53 games Under the Total after a point spread setback. These two teams have played thirteen of their last sixteen games Under the Total — but relying on those team trends along would be Fool’s Gold. The inner truth that that trend exposes is that the defenses have the advantage in this matchup when considering that both units practice against a spread triple option all the time since their offense deploys that scheme. Both these teams often enjoy an advantage over their opponent during the regular season as they are unfamiliar with defending this unique offensive style. I don’t think the number has adjusted enough given the fact that no more than 41 combined points have been scored in this rivalry game in each of the last five seasons. Navy has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. The Midshipmen have also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total against teams outside the American Athletic Conference. And in their last 22 games played on a neutral field as a favorite, Navy has played 16 of these games Under the Total. 10* CFB Saturday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Army Black Knights (103) and the Navy Midshipmen (104).

At 9:30 PM ET on Friday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Boston Celtics (515) and the San Antonio Spurs (516). Boston (22-4) has won four straight games with their 97-90 win over Dallas on Wednesday. The Celtics won that game despite making only 41.4% of their shots which was their worst shooting effort in their last ten games. In their previous five contests before facing the Mavericks, they had shot at least 50.6% in all of their games — so they should get back to making more shots tonight. Boston was able to win that game by holding Dallas to just a 39.5% shooting percentage which was their second best defensive effort of the season — so the Regression Gods should be making an appearance for this game tonight. The Celtics have then played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a straight-up win. Boston has also played 7 of their last 8 games Over the Total when playing with one day of rest. Now the Celtics go back on the road where they have played 6 straight games Over the Total on the road. Boston has also played 14 of their last 18 games Over the Total with the number posted in the 190 to 199.5 point range.

At 8:05 PM ET on Friday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Sacramento Kings (509) and the New Orleans Pelicans (510). New Orleans (13-12) has won two of their last three games with their 123-114 win over Denver on Wednesday. The Pelicans have then played 4 straight games Over the Total after scoring at least 100 points in their last game — and they have played 5 straight games Over the Total after allowing at least 100 points in their last contest. The team has been without Anthony Davis for their last three games as he is dealing with a groin injury. The Pelicans hoped he could play tonight but he has been downgraded to doubtful for this contest. His absence probably hurts New Orleans more on defense. Over their last five games with three without Davis, the Pelicans are allowing 117.8 PPG while seeing their opponents shoot 49.1% from the field as compared to the 110.2 PPG they are allowing this season along with an opponents’ field goal goal percentage of 46.2%. But New Orleans is still getting plenty of offensive production from DeMarcus Cousins, Jru Holiday and company. Over their last five games, the Pelicans are scoring 114.2 PPG while shooting 50% from the field which are both well above their 109.4 PPG and 48.3% shooting percentage for the season. Moving forward, New Orleans has played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total when playing with one day of rest. And while this will be their third straight game at home in the Big Easy, the Pelicans have played 17 of their last 21 home games Over the Total after playing their last two games at home. Additionally, New Orleans has played 5 of their last 6 games on their home court Over the Total. And in their last 5 games against fellow Western Conference opponents, the Pelicans have played all 5 games Over the Total.

Sacramento (7-17) has lost two straight games with their 101-95 loss at Cleveland on Wednesday. The Kings have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a straight-up loss. Sacramento has also played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total when playing with one day of rest. The Kings have also played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total against an opponent that allowed at least 100 points in their last contest. This team will again be without forward Willie Cauley-Stein who is out with a back injury — and this team misses his presence of the defensive end of the court. Over their last five games, Sacramento is allowing their opponents to make 50.3% of their shots. But this team is also finding a rhythm on offense as they are scoring 100.6 PPG on 48.0% shooting over those last five games which is 5 PPG more than their season average and well above their 44.3% shooting percentage for the season. The Kings lost by a 109-104 margin in their previous game in Milwaukee last Saturday — and they have played 21 of their last 29 road games Over the Total after losing their last two games by 6 points or less. Sacramento has also played 7 of their last 10 games on the road Over the Total. And in their last 12 trips to New Orleans to play the Pelicans, the game finished Over the Total 9 times. Together, these team trends produce our specific 91-24 combined angle for this situation. 25* NBA Western Conference Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Sacramento Kings (509) and the New Orleans Pelicans (510). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the New Orleans Saints (101) and the Atlanta Falcons (102). New Orleans (9-3) rebounded from their loss in Los Angeles to the Rams with their 31-21 win over Carolina last week. The Saints flexed their muscles on defense by holding the Panthers to just 279 yards of offense. Part of the success of the New Orleans defense is staying off the field. Drew Braes had his offense on the field for 33:21 of that game led by an effective rushing attack that ran the ball 28 times for 140 yards. The Saints will certainly a take a page or two from the Vikings defense that only allowed 9 points to the Falcons last week. New Orleans should commit themselves to running the football to control the Time of Possession — and that is a good formula for the Under. Tellingly, the Saints have played 9 of their last 14 games on the road Under the Total with the number set at 49.5 or higher. New Orleans has also seen the Under go 4-0-1 in their last 5 games played on a Thursday night.

Atlanta (7-5) cannot blame their defense last week in a 14-9 loss to the Vikings where they held Minnesota to just 312 yards of offense. The Falcons offense managed to register only three field goals for those 9 points in their last four trips inside the Red Zone. Red Zone offense has been an issue for this team all season — and it is an area where first-year offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian has really struggled in dialing-up effective plays. Atlanta has played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after failing to score more than 14 points in their last game. The Falcons have also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after both a straight-up defeat as well as after a point spread setback. And with that game with the Vikings falling way below the 48.5-point Total, Atlanta has played 15 of their last 21 games Under the Total after their previous game finished Under the Total. The Falcons defense is playing well as they have held five of their last six opponents to no more than 20 points. Offense has been the issue for this team after their historic season on that side of the ball last season. After their 3-0 start, Atlanta has scored more than 17 points in just four of their last nine games. Moving forward, the Falcons have played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. Atlanta has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total at home — and they have played 9 of their last 13 home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. Lastly, in the last 8 meetings between these two teams in Atlanta, the game finished Under the Total 6 times. 10* NFL Thursday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the New Orleans Saints (101) and the Atlanta Falcons (102). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (379) and the Cincinnati Bengals (380). Cincinnati (5-6) exploded for 30 points last week with their 30-16 victory over the winless Bengals as a 7.5-point favorite. The Bengals generated 405 yards of offense which was far above their league-bottom 274.3 total YPG average this season. Cincinnati is scoring only 18.1 PPG which is 25th in the NFL. One of the league’s worst offensive lines is the biggest culprit for these problems on offense and helps to explain why they are 26th in the NFL with the pass (198.6 passing YPG) and last in the league with the run (75.6 rushing YPG). The Bengals have then played 16 of their last 21 games Under the Total after a point spread win — and they have played 12 of their last 16 games Under the Total after a straight up victory. The Cincinnati defense has been solid this season — despite being on the field too much given their anemic offense. The Bengals are 10th in the NFL by allowing just 19.5 PPG. Cincy did give up 361 yards last week — but they have then played 12 of their last 16 games Under the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last game. The Bengals stay at home where they have played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total. Additionally, Cincinnati has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total in the month of December. And in their last 16 games against fellow AFC North opponents, the Bengals have played 12 of these games Under the Total.

Pittsburgh (9-2) has won six straight games with their 31-28 win over Green Bay last Sunday night. The Steelers defense ranks 3rd in the NFL in yards allowed (289.4 total YPG) and 4th in points allowed (17.5 PPG) — so they will likely have a chip on their shoulder after letting QB Brett Hundley almost steal that game against them. Pittsburgh did gain 462 yards on offense — but they have then seen the Under go 13-4-1 in their last 18 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last contest. The Steelers have also played 15 of their last 22 games Under the Total after scoring at least 30 points in their last game. Now Pittsburgh goes on the road where they have played 22 of their last 27 games Under the Total — and this includes playing ten of their last eleven road games Under the Total against teams with a losing record at home. Furthermore, the Under is 13-4-1 in the Steelers’ last 18 games against AFC North opponents. Lastly, in the last 7 meetings between these two teams, the game has finished Under the Total 5 times. 25* NFL AFC North Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (379) and the Cincinnati Bengals (380). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Philadelphia Eagles (377) and the Seattle Seahawks (378). Philadelphia (10-1) has won nine straight games with their 31-3 win over Chicago last week. The Eagles offense is clicking on all cylinders right now — they generated 420 yards of offense against an underrated Bears defense. Philadelphia has then played 21 of their last 30 games Over the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. Now the Eagles go back on the road where they have played 14 of their last 17 games Over the Total — and this includes playing four of their last five road games Over the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Philadelphia has also played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. Furthermore, the Eagles have played 23 of their last 31 games Over the Total in the month of December. And in their last 11 games played on field turf, Philadelphia has played 9 of these games Over the Total.

At 8:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Ohio State Buckeyes (327) and the Wisconsin Badgers (328). Wisconsin (12-0) has the best statistical defense in the entire FBS. The Badgers have the best total defense in the nation by allowing only 236.9 total YPG — and they are 2nd in the nation by giving up only 12.0 PPG. What is impressive about this unit is that they are balanced. Wisconsin ranks 2nd in the nation against the pass (156.4 passing YPG) while topping the nation by allowing only 80.5 rushing YPG. The Badgers enter this game coming off a 31-0 shutout win at Minnesota as an 18.5-point favorite in a game where they held the Golden Gophers to just 133 yards of offense. Wisconsin has then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread win — and the Under is 12-5-1 in their last 18 games are a win by at least 20 points. Additionally, the Badgers have played 15 of their last 18 road games Under the Total after double-digit win on the road. Furthermore, Wisconsin has not allowed more than 234 yards of offense in three straight games — and they have then played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 275 yards in two straight games.

At 8:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Miami (FL) Hurricanes (325) and the Clemson Tigers (326). Clemson (11-1) is the new number one team in the nation with their 34-10 win at South Carolina last Saturday. The Tigers defense has risen their play to another level as they have not allowed more than 14 points in their last three games. Clemson has then played 19 of their last 26 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 17 points in three straight games. The Tigers crushed the Citadel in their previous game by a 61-3 margin — and they have then played 17 of their last 23 games Under the Total after winning at least two straight games by at least three touchdowns. Additionally, Clemson has played 8 straight games Under the Total when playing on a neutral field with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range.

At 12:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the TCU Horned Frogs (333) and the Oklahoma Sooners (334). Oklahoma (11-1) reached the Big 12 Championship Game with their 59-31 win over West Virginia last Saturday as a 23-point favorite. The Sooners did allow 250 rushing yards in that game to the Mountaineers — but they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after allowing at least 200 rushing yards in their last game. The formula for success for this Horned Frogs team will be to run the football to move the chains and burn time off the clock to keep Baker Mayfield and this powerful Oklahoma offense off the field. The Sooners have played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. Oklahoma has also played 17 of their last 21 games Under the Total in the month of December. And with this game being played on a neutral field at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, the Sooners have played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total at a neutral site.

TCU (10-2) enters the Big 12 Championship Game coming off their 45-22 win over Baylor as a 24.5-point favorite last week. The Horned Frogs have then played 9 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a win over a conference opponent. TCU has also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. The Horned Frogs have also played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after scoring at least 40 points in their last game. Moving forward, TCU has played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total in the month of December. And in their last 4 games against teams with a wining record, the game finished Under the Total all 4 times. Lastly, in the last 8 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Under the Total 6 times. Together, these team trends produce our specific 74-15 combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Saturday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the TCU Horned Frogs (333) and the Oklahoma Sooners (334). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 12:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Akron Zips (319) and the Toledo Rockets (320). Akron (7-5) will be playing the Mid-American Championship Game as a significant underdog considering that they were blown out by the Rockets back on October 21st by a 48-21 score in a game that they managed only 333 yards of offense. Since that game, the Zips have won three of their last four games due in large measure to improved play on the defensive side of the football. They clinched the MAC East Title in their last game back on November 21st with their 24-14 in over Kent State as a 14.5-point favorite led by a defense that held the Golden Flashes to just 246 total yards. Over their last three games, Akron is allowing only 353.7 total YPG which is 67.8 YPG below their season average. The Zips have played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 26 of their last 35 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Additionally, Akron has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 20 points in their last game — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 275 yards in their last game. Furthermore, the Zips have played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. The offense is an issue with redshirt freshman Kato Nelson taking over for senior Thomas Woodson who was suspended a few weeks ago for violating team rules but will be available to play in this game. Nelson completed only 6 of 20 passes for 69 yards against Kent State last week. Over their last three weeks, Akron has averaged just 302.3 total YPG. Furthermore, this game will be played at Ford Field in Detroit as a neutral site — and the Zips score only 16.7 PPG while averaging 284.7 total YPG when away from home.

Toledo (10-2) reaches the Mid-American Conference Championship Game after their 37-10 win over Western Michigan back last Friday. The Rockets have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a victory by at least 20 points. Toledo has also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after allowing 20 or less points in their last game. The Toledo defense flexed their muscles in that game by holding the potent Broncos offense to just 275 yards of offense. Moving forward, the Rockets have seen the Under go 23-8-1 in their last 32 games against teams with a winning record. Toledo has also played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total in the month of December. And in their last 4 games played on a neutral field, the Rockets have played all 4 games Under the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 91-26-1 combined angle for this situation. 25* College Football Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Akron Zips (319) and the Toledo Rockets (320). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:00 PM ET on Friday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Stanford Cardinal (303) and the USC Trojans (304). Stanford (9-3) enters this game after their 38-20 upset win over Notre Dame as a 3-point underdog last Saturday. The Cardinal won that game despite gaining only 328 total yards — they benefited from a +3 net turnover margin in that game. Stanford has then played 7 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up win. The Cardinal has also played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total against fellow Pac-12 opponents. Now this team looks to avenge their 42-24 loss to the Trojans back on September 9th where they allowed a whopping 623 yards of offense. Expect David Shaw to have his defense play much better in this rematch. Over their last three games, Stanford is allowing only 18.7 PPG along with 359.0 total YPG which is over 30 YPG better than their seasonal average. But on offense, the Cardinal generates only 323.3 total YPG which is more than 70 YPG below their seasonal average. Moving forward, the Cardinal has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record.

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Washington Redskins (301) and the Dallas Cowboys (302). Dallas (5-6) has fallen on hard times after Ezekiel Elliott began serving his six-game suspension as they ave lost three straight games after their 28-6 loss to the Chargers last Thursday on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys’ offense has been a complete disaster as they have scored only a combined 22 points while failing to reach double-digits in all three of those games. Given that, it might be very tempting to take the Under — but this is a good situation to take the contrarian play with the Over. I do expect the Dallas’ offense behind QB Dak Prescott to be much better with a full week of practice under their belts. Remember, the Elliott injury came at the very worst time in terms of the schedule with the Cowboys playing three games over an twelve day period. They simply did not have much time to address the problems with the offense after that Falcons game with the Giants coming to town just four days later. Furthermore, left tackle Tyron Smith has had a full week to getting healthier after the Dallas offense spent the entire first-half in their game last Thursday avoiding running the ball to his side. But even if the Cowboys’ offense remains limited without Elliott, the defense presents another set of problems for this team. The Dallas defense has surrendered 92 combined points over their last three games. At home this season, the Cowboys are allowing 25.8 PPG along with 368.0 total YPG. Additionally, Dallas has played 6 of their last 7 home games Over the Total against teams with a losing record on the road — and linebacker Sean Lee has been declared out for this game once again this week.

Washington (5-6) enters this game coming off their 20-10 win over the Giants last Thursday. The Skins have then played 6 of their last 7 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 14 points in their last game. Washington held the Giants to just 84 rushing yards in that contest — and they have then played 8 straight games Over the Total after not allowing more than 90 rushes in their last game. Now this team goes back on the road where they are allowing 26.2 PPG along with 420.8 total YPG. The Skins have played 20 of their last 28 games on the road Over the Total — and this includes playing five straight road games Over the Total against teams with a losing record at home. Additionally, Washington has played 10 of their last 12 road games Over the Total as an underdog of 7 points or less. And the Skins have played 7 straight road games Over the Total against fellow NFC East opponents. Washington has also played 9 of their last 12 games Over the Total against NFC East teams overall. Furthermore, the Skins have played 14 of their last 17 games Over the Total against teams with a losing record. And in their last 7 games in the month of November, Washington has played 5 of these games Over the Total. They have also played 11 of their last 13 games Over the Total when listed in the +/- 3-point range. Lastly, in the last 4 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Over the Total all four times. 25* NFL Thursday Night Football Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Over the Total in the game between the Washington Redskins (301) and the Dallas Cowboys (302).

At 3:00 PM ET on Wednesday, we will be playing Over the Total (of 3.0) in the match between Stoke City (35568) and Liverpool (35567). Liverpool (6-5-2) returns to the pitch looking to get back into the Top Four of the English Premier League table after falling to 6th place on Saturday with their 1-1 draw with Chelsea. That was the second straight match where the Reds surrendered a lead after blowing a 3-0 lead last Tuesday in a midweek Champions League match with Sevilla that ended in a 3-3 draw. Defense was an issue for this team last year that lacks depth in their back-line and too often plays sloppy in manager Jurgen Clop’s high-pressing system. Liverpool has allowed 16 goals in their six matches on the road in EPL action this season. But the Pool Boys are a powerful on offense as they are 3rd in the EPL with 25 goals for the year. Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino did not play in that match against Chelsea as they were given the day off after that Champions League match. Both players should be back on the pitch this afternoon which will boost their offensive attack.

Stoke City (3-4-6) looks to bounce-back from an embarrassing 2-1 loss at Crystal Palace on Saturday. The Potters took a 1-0 lead against the basement team in the EPL table but blew a one-goal lead for the third time in their last two league matches. In theory, this is supposed to be a defensive team under manager Mark Hughes. In practice, they have produced only one clean sheet in their last eleven matches while allowing at least two goals in eight of their last ten contests. This team really missed their top keeper Jack Butland who is the English national team’s top goalkeeper — but he is out with an injury and backup Lee Grant does not make as many spectacular saves. But if there is a bright side for this team, it is that they are starting to score more goals as they have found the back of the net five times in their last three matches. Striker Saido Berahino did not play on Saturday against Crystal Palace but both he and Ramadan Sobhi who has been injured should be back on the pitch for this important match at home. Stoke City should score at least once — and perhaps twice — in what will be likely a losing effort to Liverpool. But that should be enough to reach our Over. 25* English Premier League Total of the Month with Over the Total (of 3.0) in the match between Stoke City (35568) and Liverpool (35567). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (275) and the Baltimore Ravens (276). Baltimore (5-5) pitched their third shutout of the season — and second in their last three games — with their 23-0 win at Green Bay last Sunday. The strong Ravens’ defense has facilitated the Total being set at a low number below 40 (as of this writing) — so lets attack that Over. Baltimore has played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 14 points in their last game. Additionally, the Ravens have played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after the first month of the season. And while this Baltimore offense looks anemic with their 21.3 PPG scoring mark which is 18th in the league, they are getting better on that side of the ball as they get healthier after suffering from a barrage of injuries. In their last three games, the Ravens are scoring 27.7 PPG while still not getting very aggressive with their play-calling with their two of those games being blowout shutouts. Their close game in their last three games was a 23-20 loss at Tennessee in a game where Joe Flacco aired the football out 53 times for 268 passing yards. Those are Over numbers. Moving forward, Baltimore has played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total against AFC opponents.

Houston (4-6) enter this game coming off their 31-21 win over Arizona as a 2.5-point favorite. The Texans have then played 4 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 5 of their last 7 home games after a win by double-digits. Houston has also played 9 of their last 10 games Over the Total after a point spread victory — and they have played 10 of their last 10 games Over the Total after a point spread victory when playing on the road. Additionally, that game finished well above the 38-point Total in that game and not only have the Texans played 4 of the last 5 games Over the Total after a game that finished Over the Total — and they have played 6 of their last 9 games Over the Total after a game where at least 50 combined points were scored. Head coach Bill O’Brien always gets the most out of his offensive talent. Led by QB Tom Savage who completed 22 of 32 passes for 230 yards, Houston generated 357 yards of offense against the Cardinals. The Texans have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the total after scoring at least 30 points in their last game. And while Houston held Arizona to just 48 rushing yards, they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 90 rushing yards in their last game. Lastly, the Texans have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total against fellow AFC opponents. 25* NFL Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (275) and the Baltimore Ravens (276). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Green Bay Packers (273) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (274). Green Bay (5-5) was shutout last week in their 23-0 shellacking at the hands of Baltimore as a 2.5-point underdog. It goes without saying that the Packers are a dramatically different team with QB Aaron Rodgers. But I do have confidence in head coach Mike McCarthy to scheme his way to points this week with the players he has left including QB Brett Hundley. Green Bay has played 9 of their last 12 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. Furthermore, the Packers have played 13 of their last 18 games Over the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns. The Green Bay defense did limit the Ravens to just 219 yards in their loss — but they have then played 8 of their last 11 games Over the Total after allowing less than 250 yards in their last game. Their defense could be in big trouble tonight against this powerful Pittsburgh offense — and they will likely be without linebacker Clay Matthews for this contest.

Pittsburgh (8-2) enters this game coming off their 40-17 win over Tennessee back on November 16th. The Steelers held the Titans to just 52 rushing yards in that contest — and they have then played a decisive 26 of their last 34 home games Over the Total after not allowing more than 75 rushing yards in their last game. Pittsburgh themselves have not rushed for more than 88 yards in their last three games — and they have then played 27 of their last 46 games Over the Total after not rushing for at least 100 yards in their last game. And while the Steelers have covered the point spread in four of their last five games, they have then played 27 of their last 46 games Over the Total. Lastly, while Pittsburgh has not allowed more than 17 points in their last five games, that helps place the Over into a historical angle that has been 76% effective since 1983. In games involving one team that has not allowed more than 17 points in five straight games now facing an opponent that did not score more than 3 points in the first-half of their last game, these games finished Over the Total in 40 of the last 53 situations where these conditions applied. 10* NFL Sunday Night Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Green Bay Packers (273) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (274). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 7:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Texas A&M Aggies (199) and the LSU Tigers (200). Texas A&M (7-4) will be playing one for their head coach Kevin Sumlin who has been reported by the Houston Chronicle earlier this week that he will be relieved of his coaching duties win or loss after this game. Expect the Aggies to play hard — particularly on defense — in this contest. Texas A&M comes off a 31-24 victory at Ole Miss last week as a 2.5-point favorite. The Aggies have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 straight games Under the Total after a point spread setback. Additionally, Texas A&M has played 6 straight games Under the Total after a close victory by 7 points or less against a conference rival. Now the Aggies stay on the road where they have played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total — and this includes playing 8 of their last 9 road games Under the Total against teams with a winning record at home.

LSU (8-3) once again boasts a stout defense as they are holding their opponents to just 18.5 PPG along with only 314.4 total YPG which ranks 18th and 15th best in the FBS. The Tigers enter this game coming off their 30-10 win at Tennessee last week as a 17-point favorite. LSU held the Volunteers to just 287 yards of offense — but they managed only 281 yards themselves. The Under is 9-3-2 in their last 14 games after a straight-up win — and the Under is 6-2-2 in the Tigers’ last 10 games are a point spread in win. The Tigers have also played 6 straight games Under the Total after a double-digit win against an SEC team rival. LSU returns home to Baton Rouge where they have seen the Under go 9-3-2 in their last 14 home games — and the Under is 3-0-1 in their last 4 home games against teams with a winning record on the road. Furthermore, the Tigers have played 13 of their last 16 games Under the Total in the month of November. Lastly, in the last 5 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Under the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 89-17-7 combined angle for this situation. 25* CFB SEC Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Texas A&M Aggies (199) and the LSU Tigers (200).

At 8:30 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the New York Giants (111) and the Washington Redskins (112). Preseason NFL games tend to see Totals that are set 3 to 7 points below what they normally would be if those two teams met in the regular season. One of the basic reasons for this is that scoring points typically requires successful execution of a play. Put another way: if both sides of the football are inept, the defense tends to win out simply because of the ineffectiveness of the other side of the football. This is why high school football games tend to be lower scoring (all else being equal). In this NFC East contest, both teams are M*A*S*H units with a host of injuries on both sides of the football. Both teams will likely struggle to move the football on offense. And both head coaches will likely try to take advantage of the injuries on both sides of the football by imposing their will at the line of scrimmage — and that means more running of the football. When then considering that both these teams are playing on a short week after both teams come off a game that required overtime, the smart play is the Under for this one. New York (2-8) will likely be without two starters on their offensive line with Justin Pugh and D.J. Kluker both out for this game. The Giants come off 12-9 overtime win over Kansas City last week. New York has then played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total after a straight-up win. The Giants have also played 28 of their last 38 games Under the Total after a win by a field goal or less. And in their last 8 games after failing to score more than 14 points in their last game, New York has played 6 of these games Under the Total.

Washington (4-6) returns home after their 34-31 loss in overtime at New Orleans on Sunday. Injuries abound on the offensive side of the football for this team with two of their top three running backs on Injured Reserve and rookie Samaje Perine listed as questionable with a finger injury. The Skins are also on their third-string center so cohesion with their offensive line is also an issue. These two teams tend to play lower scoring games as these two teams have played 8 of their last 11 meetings Under the Total — and this includes seeing four of their last five encounters in Washington finish Under the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 53-18 combined angle for this situation. Lastly, the Under is supported by an empirical contrarian angle that has been 63% effective over the last ten seasons. The Skins have played their last five games finished Over the Total by a combined 43.5 points — but in games involving divisional rivals where one team has played their last five games Over the Total by at least 35 combined points have then finished Under the Total in 131 of the last 207 situations where these conditions applied. 10* NFL Thursday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the New York Giants (111) and the Washington Redskins (112). Best of luck for us — Frank.

At 4:30 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Chargers (109) and the Dallas Cowboys (110). Dallas (5-5) has been a mess on offense without Ezekiel Elliott along with left tackle Tyron Smith in their last two games as they followed up their 27-7 loss in Atlanta two weeks ago with their 37-9 loss to Philadelphia last Sunday. The team hopes to get Smith back for this game but Elliott still has four games left to serve with his suspension so the Cowboys will be without their key offensive weapon. Opposing defenses are comfortable to stack the box to defend the run without much risk of trouble since wide receiver Dez Bryant has lost a step or two as a deep threat at wide receiver — so an offensive explosion is not likely from this team even with their offensive line getting healthy. As it is, Dallas has played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a double-digit loss at home. The Cowboys have also played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after allowing less than 15 points in their last game. Dallas managed only 225 yards of offense against the Eagles — and the Under is 32-15-1 in their last 48 games after failing to gain at least 250 yards in their last contest. The Cowboys need to step up their play on defense as well — and they have played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total after allowing at least 30 points in their last contest. Additionally, Dallas has played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total against teams with a losing record.

Los Angeles (4-6) enters this game coming off their 54-24 win over Buffalo last Sunday as a 7-point favorite. The Chargers have played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a victory by at least two touchdowns — and the Under is 3-0-1 in their last 4 games after a straight-up win. And while Los Angeles allowed 393 yards in that game, they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest. Additionally, the Under is 20-8-1 in the Chargers’ last 29 games after a game where they scored at least 30 points in their last game. Lastly, Los Angeles has played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total on the road. 10* NFL Thursday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Chargers (109) and the Dallas Cowboys (110).

At 12:30 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (107) and the Detroit Lions (108). Minnesota (8-2) stymied the high-powered Rams offense on Sunday in their 24-7 victory where they held that Sean McVay offense to just 254 total yards. The Vikings should continue to flex their muscles on defense as they have played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 25 of their last 37 games Under the Total after a win by at least two touchdowns. Minnesota did generate 451 yards against the Rams’ defense — but the Under is 17-7-1 in their last 25 games after generating at least 350 yards in their last game. Now the Vikings go on the road where they have played 8 of their last 9 road games Under the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Minnesota has also played 20 of their last 28 games Under the Total with the number set in the 42.5 to 49 point range. And in their last 23 games against fellow NFC North opponents, the Vikings have played 18 of these games Under the Total. Furthermore, Minnesota has played 7 of their last 10 games played on a short week on a Thursday Under the Total.

Detroit (6-4) has defeated the Vikings in three straight games despite managing just four combined touchdowns in those contests. The Lions managed just 251 yards of offense back on October 1st in their 14-7 win at Minnesota. But Detroit held the Vikings to only 284 yards of offense in that effort. The Lions come off a 27-24 win at Chicago last week where they scored a defensive touchdown with a 27-yard fumble recovery. QB Matthew Stafford completed 21 of 31 passes for 299 yards — but they have then played 9 of their last 11 games Under the Total after passing for at least 250 yards in their last game. The Lions rushed for just 65 rushing yards against Chicago — and they have then played 23 of their last 34 games Under the Total after failing to rush for at least 90 rushing yards. These two teams tend to play Unders. Not only have they played 7 of their last 8 meetings Under the Total but they have also played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total when playing in Detroit including last Thanksgiving where the Lions defeated Minnesota by a 16-13 score. With this game being played on a short week, expect the recent team trends between these two teams to continue to consistent. 25* NFL NFC North Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (107) and the Detroit Lions (108).

At 9:05 PM ET on Wednesday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the San Jose Sharks (73) and the Arizona Coyotes (74). San Jose (10-8-0) looks to snap their three-game losing streak with their 3-2 loss to Anaheim on Monday. The Sharks have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after failing to score more than two goals in their last game. Scoring has been an issue for this team — as epitomized by the play of defenseman Brett Burns who has yet to score this season while registering a mere 7 points in nineteen games after being one of the best offensive players on the blue-line in the entire NHL. San Jose is getting outstanding play from their goalie Martin Jones when on the road this year where he owns an outstanding 1.01 Goals-Against-Average along with a .967 save percentage in four starts. The Sharks have played 4 straight games Under the Total on the road. San Jose has also seen the Under go 5-1-1 in their last 6 road games against teams with a winning percentage below 40% at home. Furthermore, the Under is a decisive 30-11-18 in the Sharks’ last 59 games against fellow Pacific Division opponents.

Arizona (5-15-2) has won three straight games with their 4-1 upset win in Toronto on Monday. The team has overcome a disastrous start due to better goaltending as of late. Tonight goalie Anntti Raanta has won his last three starts while allowing only three goals with a sparkling .950 save percentage over his last two starts. The Coyotes played a front-loaded schedule on the road which did not help their start but Raanta has a solid 2.51 Goals-Against-Average with a .921 save percentage at home this year. Arizona has played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total after a victory. The Under is also 7-3-1 in the Coyotes’ last 11 games after failing to score more than two goals in their last game. And in their last 14 games against teams with a winning record, the Under is 9-4-1. Lastly, in the last 5 meetings between these two teams in Arizona, the game finished Under the Total 4 times. Together, these team trends produce our specific 70-21-22 combined angle for this situation. 25* NHL Pacific Division Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the San Jose Sharks (73) and the Arizona Coyotes (74).

At 2:00 PM ET on Wednesday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Eastern Kentucky Colonels (569) and the Eastern Washington Eagles (570). This game is the opening game of the loser’s bracket of the MGM Grand Main Event right here in Las Vegas — and take note of the 11 AM PT local time tip for these two teams. These early tips often see at least one of the teams still trying to overcome morning lethargy. Eastern Kentucky (2-2) enters this game coming off an 80-70 upset loss to Prairie View A&M on Monday as a 10-point underdog. The Colonels have then played 21 of their last 29 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Eastern Kentucky has also played 17 of their last 22 games Under the Total after allowing at least 80 points in their last game. The Colonels saw Prairie View A&M make 48% of their shots which was their worst defensive performance of this young season — so expect a better effort on that end of the court this afternoon. Eastern Kentucky did make 30 of their 36 free throw attempts in that last game for a crisp 83.3% clip at the charity stripe. But the Colonels have then played 35 of their last 55 road games Under the Total after making at least 78% of their free throws in their last game. Additionally Eastern Kentucky has played 23 of their last 33 games Under the Total as the underdog.

Eastern Washington (2-3) takes the court again after their 68-50 loss to Georgia State on Monday. That loss to the Panthers followed up a 15-point loss at UNLV — and the Eagles have then played 8 straight games Under the Total after losing two straight games by at least 15 points. Eastern Washington has also played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Additionally, while the Eagles have been underdogs in all four of their boarded games this season, they have then played 28 of their last 41 games Under the Total after playing their last three games as an underdog. Together, these team trends produce our specific 148-62 combined angle for this situation. 10* CBB Wednesday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Eastern Kentucky Colonels (569) and the Eastern Washington Eagles (570).

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Atlanta Falcons (475) and the Seattle Seahawks (476). Atlanta (5-4) has won two of their last three games after their 22-7 win over Dallas last Sunday. That game finished well below the 49 point Total set for that game — and they have then played 15 of their last 20 games Under the Total after playing a game that finished Under the Total. Additionally, the Under is 3-1-1 in the Falcons’ last 5 games after not allowing more than 14 points in their last game. Atlanta held the Cowboys to just 233 yards of offense in that victory — and the Under is then 19-7-1 in their last 26 games after allowing less than 250 yards in their last game. Furthermore, the Falcons have played 4 straight games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. Atlanta has also played 21 of their last 27 games Under the Total in the month of November.

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Philadelphia Eagles (473) and the Dallas Cowboys (474). Philadelphia (8-1) returns from their bye week off coming off a 51-23 win over the Broncos back on November 5th. The Eagles have then played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a win by at least two touchdowns. Philadelphia generated 419 yards in that victory — and they have then played 21 of their last 30 games Over the Total after averaging at least 350 yards in their last game. One of the reasons that is making the Eagles so tough this season is their Red Zone offense as they are tops in the league in that category with QB Carson Wentz throwing 15 passing TDs in the Red Zone with zero interceptions. This efficiency has helped them score 31.4 PPG which is second best in the NFL so far this season. The Philly defense has also been outstanding as they held the Broncos to just 226 yards of offense. But the Over is then 16-6-2 in the Eagles’ last 24 games after allowing less than 250 yards in their last game. Now this team goes on the road where they have played 14 of their last 16 games Over the Total — and this includes playing four of their last five road games Over the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Philadelphia has also played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. And in their last 12 games against fellow NFC East rivals, the Eagles have played 10 of these games Over the Total.

Dallas (5-4) saw their three-game winning streak snapped last Sunday in their 27-7 loss in Atlanta as a 3.5-point favorite. The Cowboys really missed left tackle Tyron Smith in that game as his replacement, Chaz Green, was repeatedly burned by the Falcons pass rush that accumulated eight sacks in that game. Priority number one for this Dallas offense is addressing this issue as Smith will not be able to suit up for this game. Expect the Cowboys to commit to running the football more after running the ball only 21 times against the Falcons which was their second fewest attempts of the season. That game was still a 17-7 score entering the 4th quarter so the play-calling should not be blamed on falling behind to Atlanta too early in the game. A commitment to running the football will open up QB Dak Prescott’s play-action passing — and he should find success throwing the football against this Eagles defense that ranks 26th in the NFL by allowing 249.4 passing YPG. Dallas has played 4 of the last 5 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. And with Prescott getting sacked eight times, the Cowboys ended up with just 126 passing yards last week. Dallas has then played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total after failing to pass for more than 150 yards in their last game. Lastly, in their last 5 games against NFC foes, the Cowboys have played 4 of these games Over the Total. 25* NFL NFC East Total of the Year with Over the Total in the game between the Philadelphia Eagles (473) and the Dallas Cowboys (474).

At 12:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Cincinnati Bearcats (325) and the East Carolina Pirates (326). Cincinnati (3-7) looks to bounce-back from a 35-24 loss to Temple as a 3-point underdog last Friday. The Bearcats have then played 11 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total after a double-digit loss at home. Cincinnati surrendered 205 rushing yards in that loss — and they have seen the Under go 8-1-1 in their last 10 games after allowing at least 200 rushing yards in their last game. Now this team goes back on the road where the Under is 6-2-1 in their last 9 games on the road. And in their last 8 road games against teams with a losing record at home, the Bearcats have played 6 of these games Under the Total. Additionally, Cincinnati has played 18 of their last 25 games Under the Total in the month of November.

East Carolina (2-8) has lost two straight games after their 31-24 loss to Tulane in overtime last week. The Pirates held the Green Wave to just 121 passing yards — and they have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after not allowing more than 170 passing yards in their last game. East Carolina has also played 10 of their last 13 games Under the Total after playing their last two games against conference opponents. Now this team stays at home where they have played 8 of their last 9 home games Under the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. The Pirates have also played 5 of their last 6 home games Under the Total as the underdog getting no more than 7 points. Lastly, this East Carolina team has played 11 of their last 14 games Under the Total in the second-half of the season. 10* CFB Saturday Afternoon Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Cincinnati Bearcats (325) and the East Carolina Pirates (326).

At 10:35 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Houston Rockets (503) and the Phoenix Suns (504). Houston (11-4) saw their six-game winning streak snapped on Tuesday with their 1219-113 loss to Toronto despite being a 6.5-point favorite in that game. Chris Paul may take the court again for the Rockets which does not shape much into the rationale for this play (outside of helping this Houston team ensure they always have a potent point guard on the court since the original plan was to have one of these two stars on the court at all times this season). The Rockets shot just 41.8% from the field against the Raptors which was their worst shooting effort in their last seven games. Expect Houston to get back to their torrid shooting pace as they are scoring 119.2 PPG over their last five games while nailing 48% of their shots even with their poor performance on Tuesday during that span. But the Rockets’ style of play does allow the opposition to find easy shots on their own. Over their last five games, Houston is allowing 108.6 PPG while seeing these opponents make 48.5% of their shots. The Rockets have played 7 of their last 9 games Over the Total after a double-digit loss at home. Houston has also played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after allowing at least 100 points in their last game. The Rockets have also played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total when playing with one day of rest. Additionally, Houston has played a decisive 38 of their last 53 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage below 40% — and they have played 6 straight Overs against teams with a losing record. And in their last 24 road games against teams with a winning percentage below 40% on their home court, the Rockets have played 17 of these games Over the Total.

Phoenix (5-10) has lost six of their last seven games with their 100-93 loss to the Lakers on Monday. This Suns team likes to play at a fast-pace with their young team — but they don’t play much defense. Over their last five games, Phoenix is scoring 106.0 PPG — but they are surrendering 112.4 PPG. This team has played 11 of their last 12 games Over the Total when playing with two days of rest. The Suns have also played 22 of their last 30 games Over the Total against teams with a winning percentage over 60%. And in their last 4 home games against teams with a winning percentage over 60% on the road, Phoenix has played all 4 of these games Over the Total. Lastly, these two teams have played 6 straight games Over the Total — and they have played 8 of their last 9 games Over the Total when facing each other in Phoenix. 25* NBA Thursday TNT Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Houston Rockets (503) and the Phoenix Suns (504).

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (311) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (312). Pittsburgh (7-2) has won four straight games with their 20-17 win at Indianapolis last week as a 10.5-point favorite. The Steelers have then seen the Under go a decisive 37-16-1 in their last 54 games after a straight-up win. Pittsburgh has also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. The Steelers managed only 88 yards of rushing in that game — and they have then played 7 straight games Under the Total after failing to rush for at least 90 yards in their last game. Le’Veon Bell ran the ball 26 times but managed only 80 rushing yards against the Colts. Expect a heavy dose of Bell in this game on the short week as the Steelers look to wear the Titans out. Pittsburgh has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. The Steelers have also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total in the month of November. And in their last 4 appearances on Thursday Night Football, the game finished Under the Total all 4 times.

Tennessee (6-3) has won four straight games as well after their 24-20 win over Cincinnati last week as a 4.5-point favorite. The Titans held the Bengals to just 308 total yards in that contest as their defensive unit continues to play quite well since getting dusted for 59 points against the Texans. Since that game, Tennessee has allowed their next five opponents to average just 17.4 PPG. The Titans actually lead the NFL by allowing the fewest big plays in the league. They will need a strong defensive effort to stay competitive in this game as their offense has been limited when on the road. Tennessee is scoring only 18.2 PPG while averaging just 260.5 total YPG. The Titans average just 203.9 passing YPG which is 27th in the NFL so they are not equipped nor will be comfortable getting into a scoring contest with the Big Ben and the Steelers. Instead, Tennessee will want to run the ball and control time of possession. The Titans are completing 61.7% of their passes on offense — but Pittsburgh has played 19 of their last 28 games Under the Total against teams that complete at least 61% of their passes. And while Tennessee is allowed 236.4 passing YPG, the Steelers have played 12 of their last 14 games Under the Total against teams that allow at least 235 passing YPG. Furthermore, the Titans have played a decisive 40 of their last 57 road games Under the Total with the number set in the 42.5 to 49 point range. The Steelers boast an underrated defense that is allowing just 16.4 PPG along with only 284.4 total YPG which are both 2nd best in the league. Pittsburgh has played 6 straight games Under the Total with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range. And in the Steelers’ last 13 games as the favorite laying 3.5 to 9.5 point range, the game finished Under the Total 11 times. Together, these team trends produce our specific 132-57 combined angle for this situation. 10* NFL Thursday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Tennessee Titans (311) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (312).

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Miami Dolphins (275) and the Carolina Panthers (276). If I could accurately predict that special teams miscues would lead directly to 17 first-half points (like last night), I would be retired on a beach. Irrespective of last night’s very frustrating results from Denver, I had the Over circled for this game all week after witnessing the Dolphins’ improved offense last Sunday night after they traded away running back Jay Ajayi. That might be the ole “addition by subtraction” situation as the offense looked more in synch while they were able to turn to capable players in former Alabama running back Kenyon Drake along with Damien Williams. Miami (4-4) looks to bounce-back from their 27-24 loss to Oakland last week as a 3-point underdog. The Dolphins did show some signs of like on offense by generating 395 yards of offense. QB Jay Cutler played his best game in a Dolphins uniform by completing 34 of 42 passes for 311 yards and 3 touchdown passes. Getting wide receiver DeVante Parker healthy and back on the field certainly helped as he caught 5 passes for 76 yards. Miami did allow 379 yards in that game to the Raiders — and they have then played 8 of their last 11 games Over the Total after allowing at least 379 yards in their last game. Cutler has thrown 86 passes in his last two games — and his team has played 17 of their last 22 games Over the Total after passing at least 40 times in two straight contests. Now the Dolphins go back on the road where they have played 4 of their last 5 road games Over the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Additionally, Miami has played 5 of their last 6 games in the month of November Over the Total. And in their last 9 appearances on Monday Night Football, the Dolphins have played 7 of these games Over the Total.

Carolina (6-3) enters this game coming off their 20-17 upset win over the Falcons as a 3-point underdog. The Panthers have won and covered the point spread in two straight games. Carolina has then played 7 of their last 9 games Over the Total after at least two straight point spread wins. The Panthers have also played 12 of their last 18 games Over the Total after winning at least two straight games. Furthermore, Carolina has played 4 straight games Over the Total after a win at home against a fellow NFC South rival. And in their last 15 games after a win at home, the Panthers have played 10 of these games Over the Total. Cam Newton passed for just 137 yards on 24 throws in that game but Carolina has then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after not passing for at least 150 yards in their last game. Lastly, while the Panthers have not allowed more than 17 points in three straight games, they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 17 points in at least two straight games. Together, these team trends produce our specific 82-27 combined angle for this situation. 10* NFL Monday Daily Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Miami Dolphins (275) and the Carolina Panthers (276).

At 8:05 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Memphis Grizzlies (705) and the Milwaukee Bucks (706). Memphis (7-5) has lost four of their last six games with their 111-96 loss at Houston on Saturday. The Grizzlies have then played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after allowing at least 100 points in their last game. Despite moving on from Zach Randolph and defensive wizard Tony Allen in the offseason who were the face of their “Grit-n-Grind” identity, this Memphis team still is playing great defense. Opposing teams are shooting just 42.6% from the field this season. Now this team stays on the road for their fifth straight contest — and they have played 14 of their last 19 games Under the Total after playing at least three straight games on the road. The Under is also 4-1-1 in their last 6 games when playing with one day of rest. Furthermore, the Under is 11-5-1 in the Grizzlies last 17 games when playing on the road. And in their last 7 games with the Total set in the 200 to 209.5 point range, the game finished Under the Total 5 times.

Milwaukee (6-6) has won two straight games with their 98-90 win over the Lakers on Saturday as a 6.5-point favorite. The Bucks have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up win. Milwaukee has also seen the Under go 15-5-1 in their last 21 games after a point spread victory. Additionally, the Under is 9-2-1 in their last 12 games when playing with one day of rest. The Bucks forced 21 Laker turnovers in that game which was ten more than they committed — and they have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after committing at least ten fewer turnovers than their opponents in their last game. Milwaukee stays at home where they have played 4 straight games Under the Total. Furthermore, the Under is 8-2-1 in their last 11 games against teams with a winning record. Lastly, the Under is 6-0-1 in the last 7 meetings between these two teams in Milwaukee. Together, these team trends produces our specific 93-24-6 combined angle for this situation. 25* NBA Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the Memphis Grizzlies (705) and the Milwaukee Bucks (706).

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the New England Patriots (273) and the Denver Broncos (274). Denver (3-5) embarrassed themselves last week by losing in Philadelphia to the Eagles by a 51-23 score as a 7-point underdog. After surrendering over 50 points, expect this proud “No Fly Zone” Broncos’ defense to step up in this opportunity to make a statement against Tom Brayed and this Patriots’ offense. Denver has played 8 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a straight-up defeat — and they have played 8 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. The Broncos surrendered 197 rushing yards in that game to the Eagles — but they have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after allowing at least 150 rushing yards in their last game. Denver has bigger issues on offense with Brock Osweiler under center for an ineffective Trevor Siemian. The Broncos managed only 226 yards of offense last week — and they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after failing to generate at least 250 yards in their last game. Additionally, Denver has played 7 of their last 8 home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road.

New England (6-2) comes off their bye week after their 31-13 win over the Chargers back on October 29th. The Patriots generated 401 yards of offense in that victory — but they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. Tom Brady tends to struggle when playing in the high altitude and thin air against the perennially tough Broncos defense. New England has played four times in Denver since January 19th of 2014 in those AFC Playoffs — and Mr. Brady has led an offense that is scoring just 18.5 PPG while averaging a mere 306.5 YPG on those contests. Not surprisingly, these two teams have played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total when playing in Denver. Additionally, this Patriots defense is playing much better as well. After allowing 32 PPG over the first month of the season, New England has lost only 51 points over their last four games for a stingy 12.8 PPG scoring average. The Patriots have played 10 of their last 14 games Under the Total on the road — and this includes playing five straight road games Under the Total against teams with a losing record at home. Lastly, in their last 6 games against teams with a losing record, the Patriots have played 5 of these games Under the Total. 25* NFL Sunday Night Football Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the New England Patriots (273) and the Denver Broncos (274).

AAt 4:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the San Jose State Spartans (153) and the Nevada Wolf Pack (154). Nevada (1-8) enters this game coming off their 41-14 loss at Boise State last week as a 20-point underdog. The Wolf Pack have then played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a loss. Nevada allowed 479 yards in that contest — but they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last game. That game with the Broncos finished below the 63 point Total — and they have then played 13 of their last 18 games Under the Total after playing a game that finished Under the Total. And in their last 13 games after failing to score more than 20 points in their last game, Nevada has played 9 of these games Under the Total. Now the Wolf Pack return home where they have played 20 of their last 29 games Under the Total. And in their last 11 games as the favorite, Nevada has played 9 of these games Under the Total.

San Jose State (1-9) looks to bounce-back from their 52-7 loss to San Diego State as a 23.5-point underdog last week. The Under is a decisive 33-16-2 in their last 51 games after allowing at least 40 points in their last game. And while the Spartans allowed 648 yards to the Aztecs in that game, they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last game. San Jose State did hold San Diego State to just 94 passing yards — and they have then played 10 of their last 11 games Under the Total after not allowing more than 170 passing yards in their last game. Moving forward, the Spartans have played 7 of their last 9 games Under the Total against teams with a losing record. And in the last 6 meetings between these two teams, the game finished Under the Total 5 times. Together, these team trends produce our specific 128-46-2 combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Over/Under Situational Special with Under the Total in the game between the San Jose State Spartans (153) and the Nevada Wolf Pack (154).

At 3:30 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Florida State Seminoles (211) and the Clemson Tigers (212). Florida State (3-5) looks to build off their 27-24 win over Syracuse last Saturday as a 7.5-point favorite. The Seminoles have then played 5 straight games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Florida State were outgained by a 463 to 343 yardage margin — and they have then played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last game. Offense is the big concern for this team that has not been able to move the ball consistently under true freshman QB James Blackmon. He completed 12 of 19 passes in the victory last week but accumulated in just 136 yards. Now Florida State goes on the road where they are scoring just 13.2 PPG while averaging just 289.5 total YPG. The defense does play better on the road where they know they have to play well to stay competitive. The Seminoles are allowing home teams to average just 320.0 total YPG which is more than 41 YPG below their season average. The Seminoles have played 6 straight games Under the Total on the road. And in their last 27 games in ACC play, Florida State has played 20 of these games Under the Total.

Clemson (8-1) looks to build off their 38-31 win at North Carolina State last week as a 10-point favorite. The Tigers have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a straight-up win. Clemson has also played 4 straight games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Now this team returns home where they flex their muscles on defense by holding their opponents to just 8.0 PPG while allowing only 208.2 total YPG. The Tigers have played 4 straight games Under the Total on their home field. And in rather last 6 games in the ACC, Clemson has played 5 of these games Under the Total. 10* CFB Florida State-Clemson ESPN O/U Special with Under the Total in the game between the Florida State Seminoles (211) and the Clemson Tigers (212).

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Seattle Seahawks (111) and the Arizona Cardinals (112). We have endured too many bad beats with too many of these prime-time televised games when we happened to have the Under — with the Packers scoring a garbage touchdown on the last play of the game on Monday after being the beneficiary of a Pass Interference call in the end zone as time expired. And it will take years for me to forget the Baltimore Ravens’ two defensive touchdowns that just put their Thursday Night game over the total a few weeks ago despite them shutting out the Dolphins. Our NFL Total of the Month in October was that Houston-Seattle 41-38 scoring fest — so I am not a complete zombie taking Unders. We just tend to remember the losses with Unders. It is psychological — Overs are more exhilarating to win because it is a definitive experience to witness the score toppling the number while Unders are deflating when a score reaches the point where winning the bet becomes impossible. But it is my job to forget the past (which has no bearing on tonight’s results) and make a cold-calculating decision on the proposition in front of us. Tonight, that is the Under. Arizona (4-4) has scored 20 or less points in six of their eight games this season with their 20-10 win in San Francisco last week as a 2.5-point favorite. The Cardinals have then played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a point spread win. And while that game finished below the 39 point Total, Arizona has then played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total at home after a game that finished Under the Total. They did generate 368 yards of offense with backup QB Drew Stanton starting for the injured Carson Palmer, but they have then played 11 of their last 16 games Under the Total after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. Now the Cardinals return home where they have played 12 of their last 15 games Under the Total — and this includes five straight home games Under the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. Furthermore, Arizona has played 9 of their last 12 games Under the Total against fellow NFC West opponents.

Seattle (5-3) saw their four-game winning streak snapped on Sunday in their 17-14 upset loss to Washington as an 8-point favorite. This team has scored 16 or less points in four of their eight games this season — and their defense has held their foes to 18 or less points in six of their eight games. The Seahawks have still won five of their last seven games — and they have played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total after winning five or six of their last seven games. And while they gained 437 yards and 479 yards in their last two games, they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after gaining at least 400 yards in each of their last two games. Now Seattle goes back on the road where they have played 6 of their last 7 road games Under the Total as a favorite laying 3.5 to 7 points away from home. The Seahawks have also played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total against NFC West opponents — and they have played 5 straight games Under the Total against NFC foes. Together, these team trends produce our specific 82-22 combined angle for this situation. 10* NFL Thursday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Seattle Seahawks (111) and the Arizona Cardinals (112).

At 7:30 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the North Carolina Tar Heels (117) and the Pittsburgh Panthers (118). North Carolina (1-8) has lost six straight games in a disaster of a season with their 24-19 loss to Miami (FL) two Saturdays ago as a 21-point underdog. Larry Fedora’s team is a M*A*S*H unit this season with injuries on the offensive line particularly hurting this team from week-to-week. The Tar Heels rank 109th in the FBS by scoring 21.3 PPG while ranking 108th in the FBS any averaging 344.2 total YPG. On the road, North Carolina sees their yardage numbers drop to 310.0 total YPG. And over their last three games, the Tar Heels are scoring just 13.3 PPG while averaging 285.7 total YPG. North Carolina has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after failing to score more than 20 points in their last game. The Tar Heels have also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. And while UNC covered the three-touchdown spread against the Hurricanes, they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. The defense does seem to be playing better after limiting the Miami (FL) rushing attack to just 59 yards in that game. Over their last three games, they are holding their opponents to just 17.4 PPG while allowing more than 46 YPG below their season average. The Tar Heels have played 12 of the last 14 games Under the Total after the first month of the season. North Carolina has also played 4 straight road games Under the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Moving forward, the Tar Heels have played 9 of their last 11 games Under the Total as an underdog. And in their last 8 games played on a Thursday night, North Carolina has played all 8 games Under the Total.

Pittsburgh (4-5) takes the field again after their 31-14 win over Virginia as a 1-point favorite back on October 28th. The Panthers have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up win. Pat Narduzzi’s team is fighting for bowl eligibility now — and the former Michigan State defensive coordinator is seeing improved play out of his young defense that returned just four starters from last season. Over their last three games, Pitt is allowing 22.0 PPG along with 377.0 total YPG which is 5.9 PPG and 43.7 YPG better than their seasonal averages. On offense, the Panthers have turned to sophomore Ben Dinucci at QB with the season-ending shoulder injury to USC graduate transfer Max Browne. Dinucci has been more of a game manager after passing just 18 times last week for 134 yards. Junior running back Darrin Hall has rushed for 365 yards over the last two games as he has become the focal point of this offense. It is 2 1/2 years into his tenure at Pitt but Narduzzi looks to finally be constructing this team into the types of teams he was an integral part with under head coach Mark Dantonio at Michigan State. But the team will be without a key piece to their offense with fullback George Aston out for this game with an ankle injury — his absence should not be underestimated. This team stays at home where the Under is 3-1-1 in their last 5 games — and the Panthers have played 10 of their last 16 home games Under the Total when favored by 7.5 to 14 points. Lastly, Pitt has played 5 straight games Under the Total against fellow ACC opponents. Together, these team trends produce our specific 65-14-1 combined angle for this situation. 25* CFB Thursday Night ESPN Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the North Carolina Tar Heels (117) and the Pittsburgh Panthers (118).

At 7:30 PM ET on Tuesday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Akron Zips (101) and the Miami (OH) Redhawks (102). Akron (5-4) looks to build off their 21-20 win over Buffalo last week as a 3-point underdog. The Zips have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after both a straight-up win — and they have played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. And while Akron allowed the Bulls to gain 454 yards in that upset victory, they have then played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in the last game. Now this team goes back on the road where they have played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total. And in their last 6 games against teams with a losing record, the Zips have played all 6 games Under the Total.

Miami (OH) (3-6) looks to bounce-back from their 45-28 loss at Ohio last Tuesday. The Redhawks have then played 16 of their last 21 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. Miami (OH) managed just 98 rushing yards in their last game — and they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after failing to rush for at least 100 yards in their last game. Now this team returns home where they have played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total — and they have played 11 of the last 14 home games Under the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. Together, these team trends produce our specific 74-15 combined angle for this situation. Lastly, this Redhawks team does play very good defense as they rank 39th in the nation by holding teams to just 365.9 total YPG. 10* CFB Over/Under Situational Special Under the Total in the game between the Akron Zips (101) and the Miami (OH) Redhawks (102).

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Detroit Lions (473) and the Green Bay Packers (474). Detroit (3-4) has lost three straight games after their 29-15 loss to Pittsburgh last Sunday night as a 3-point favorite. The Lions managed only five goals in that game as their lack of a running game and a go-to short yardage wide receiver continues to hurt them in the Red Zone where they are 28th in the league. Detroit ranks 28th in the league by averaging just 82.1 rushing YPG. Now this Lions team goes on the road where they have played 22 of their last 30 games Under the Total — and this includes playing fourteen of their last seventeen road games Under the Total against teams with a winning record at home. Additionally, Detroit has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total against fellow NFC North opponents. And in their last 6 games in the month of November, the Lions have played 5 of these games Under the Total. Furthermore, in Detroit’s last 12 games on Monday Night Football, they have played 9 of these games Under the Total.

Green Bay (4-3) takes the field again after their 26-17 loss at home to Green Bay back on October 22nd in their first game after Aaron Rodgers suffered his shoulder injury. The Packers have played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after their bye week. Brett Hundley completed just 12 of 25 passes in that game for a mere 85 yards — and Green Bay has played 5 of their last 7 games Under the Total after failing to pass for at least 150 yards. The Packers stay at home for this game where they have played 5 of their last 7 games with the Total set in the 42.5 to 45 point range. And Green Bay has played 11 of their last 14 home games Under the Total after the first month of the season. Together, these team trends produce our specific 67-21 ATS combined angle for this situation. 10* NFL Monday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Detroit Lions (473) and the Green Bay Packers (474).

At 9:35 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Memphis Grizzlies (719) and the Los Angeles Lakers (720). Memphis (6-3) snapped their two-game losing streak last night with their 113-104 win in Los Angeles against the Clippers as a 5-point underdog. The Under is then 4-1-1 in the Grizzlies last 6 games are a straight-up win — and the Under is 3-1-1 in their last 5 games after a point spread victory. Additionally, Memphis has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after allowing at least 100 points in their last game. This Grizzlies team has moved on from the “Grit-n-Grind” era defined by the duo of Zach Randolph and Tony Allen — but this group is still playing good defense with Marc Gasol patrolling the middle. Memphis is holding their opponents to just 97.1 PPG while limiting these teams to shooting only 41.7% from the field. But this Grizzlies team is shooting just 43.8% from the field themselves as this team’s identity seems to continue to be defense-first. Now Memphis stays on the road to play a second game in the Staples Center —and the Under is 9-4-1 in their last 14 games on the road.

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Oakland Raiders (471) and the Miami Dolphins (472). Oakland (3-5) has lost five of their last six games with their 34-14 loss in Buffalo last Sunday. The Raiders stayed on the East Coast for this game which is critical to saving their season. Oakland’s resolve will likely come from the offensive side of the football when considering that they rank 26th in the NFL by allowing 356.9 total YPG. Additionally, the Raiders’ secondary is banged up with both safety Karl Joseph and cornerback David Amerson both listed as questionable with injuries. Oakland has played 11 of their last 14 games Over the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns. The Raiders generated 361 yards in that loss to the Bills and their potent defense — and they have then seen the Over go 16-6-1 in their last 23 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. And while they only rushed for 54 yards in that while Marshawn Lynch served his one-game suspension, they have then played 9 of their last 11 games Over the Total after failing to rush for at least 75 yards in their last game. Lynch returns to the team for this game. Moving forward, Oakland has played 7 of their last 10 games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. The Raiders have also played 13 of their last 21 games Over the Total when listed in the +/- 3-point range. And in their last 27 games in the month of November, the Over is 19-5-3 with Oakland.

Miami (4-3) looks to reset their offense after hitting rock bottom two Thursdays ago in their 40-0 loss at Baltimore. After being out rushed by 129 yards to the Ravens, the Dolphins traded away running back Jay Ajayi to the Eagles and will hand the primary rushing duties to Kenyan Drake. The Dolphins have played 11 of their last 17 games Over the Total after being outrushed by at least 75 yards in their last game. The Dolphins have also played 7 straight games Over the Total with the Total set in the 42.5 to 49 point range. This team returns home where they have played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total — and they have played 5 straight home games Over the Total against teams with a losing record on the road. Miami has also played 4 of their last 5 home games Over the Total as an underdog of 3 points or less. And in their last 5 games in the month of November, the Dolphins have played 4 of these games Over the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 117-39-4 combined angle for this situation. 10* NFL Sunday Night Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Oakland Raiders (471) and the Miami Dolphins (472).

At 12:20 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Syracuse Orange (331) and the Florida State Seminoles (332). Florida State (2-5) looks to bounce-back from a 35-3 loss at Boston College last week as a 6-point favorite. The Seminoles have then played 6 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up loss — and they have played 4 straight games Under the Total after a point spread defeat. The struggling Florida State offense managed just 213 total yards in that contest — and they have played 5 straight games Under the Total after failing to gain at least 275 yards in their last game. They have also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after failing to score more than 20 points in their last game.

Furthermore, Florida State has played 11 of their last 13 games Under the Total in the month of November.

Syracuse (4-4) looks to bounce-back from their 27-19 loss at Miami (FL) back on October 21st as a 17.5-point favorite. The Orange has then played 10 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a straight-up loss. The Orange have also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after a point spread loss. Additionally, Syracuse has now played 10 of their last 11 games Under the Total in ACC play. And while the Orange surrendered 480 yards against the Hurricanes, they have then played 7 of their last 8 games Under the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last contest.

At 12:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (377) and the Vanderbilt Commodores (378). Vanderbilt (3-5) has lost five straight games with their 34-27 loss at South Carolina last Saturday. The Commodores have then played 5 straight games Over the Total after a straight-up loss. Now Vanderbilt returns home where they have played 8 of their last 9 home games Over the Total against teams with a winning record on the road. Gone are the salad days of September when this team went into their meeting with Alabama with the best statistical defense in the nation. Over their last three games, the Commodores have given up 45.3 PPG along with 512.7 total YPG. Vandy allowed 212 rushing yards to the Gamecocks last week — and they have then played 5 straight games Over the Total after allowing at least 200 rushing yards in their last game. The Commodores’ offense has kicked into another gear with junior QB Kyle Shurmur completing 27 of 49 passes for 333 yards and 3 TDs against South Carolina. This team is scoring 25.3 PPG over their last three games while averaging 364.3 total YPG which is well above their 314.9 total YPG seasonal average.

Western Kentucky (5-3) saw their four-game winning streak snapped last Saturday with their 42-28 loss at Florida Atlantic as a 6.5-point underdog. The Hilltoppers have then played 13 of the last 19 games Over the Total after a point spread loss. Western Kentucky allowed 461 yards in that contest — and they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after allowing at least 450 yards in their last game. The Hilltoppers have also played 4 straight games Over the Total after allowing at least 40 points in their last contest. This team has cranked things up on offense as they are scoring 36.0 PPG over their last three games while totaling 504.3 total YPG over that span. Western Kentucky has needed this increased production on offense because they are allowing 29.0 PPG over their last three games while allowing 406.0 YPG over that span which is 37 YPG more than their seasonal average. Moving forward, the Hilltoppers have played 14 of their last 20 games Over the Total against teams with a losing record.

At 8:25 PM ET on Thursday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Buffalo Bills (307) and the New York Jets (308). New York (3-5) looks to snap a three-game losing streak tonight after they lost by a 25-20 score at home versus Atlanta on Sunday as a 6.5-point underdog. The Jets managed only 43 rushing yards in that game — and they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total. New York was outrushed by 97 yards in that contest — and they have then played 25 of their last 37 home games Under the Total after being out rushed by at least 75 yards. And while the Falcons outgained them by 107 net yards, the Jets have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after being outgained by at least 100 yards. New York allowed 386 yards to Atlanta in that game — but they have then played 6 of their last 7 games Under the Total after allowing at least 350 yards in their last contest. The Jets do play better defense at home where they are holding their opponents to just 18.2 PPG along with 324.2 total YPG which is 5 points fewer along with -37.2 net YPG lower than their seasonal averages. This shapes up to be low scoring game with both teams on a short week and when considering that New York has played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total against fellow AFC East opponents. These two teams have also played 5 of their last 6 meetings Under the Total.

Buffalo (5-2) has won four of their last five games with their 34-14 win over the Raiders last Sunday as a 2-point favorite. The Bills have then played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a point spread victory. Additionally, Buffalo has played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a win by at least two touchdowns. The Bills are playing outstanding defense as they rank 3rd in the NFL by holding opponents to just 16.4 PPG led by a run defense that also ranks 3rd in the league by limiting opponents to just 80.1 rushing YPG. Defense travels which helps explain why Buffalo has played 4 straight games Under the Total on the road. Lastly, in their last 7 appearances on Thursday Night Football, the Bills have played 5 of these games Under the Total. 25* NFL AFC East Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the Buffalo Bills (307) and the New York Jets (308).

At 8:20 PM ET on Wednesday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Houston Astros (913) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (914) listing both starting pitchers Lance McCullers and Yu Darvish. Houston (111-68) blew their first chance to win the World Series last night with their 3-1 loss to the Dodgers. The Astros have then played 25 of their last 35 road games Over the Total after scoring two runs or less in their last game. Houston has also played 16 of their last 22 road games Over the Total after scoring and allowing no more than three runs in their last contest. You may see some stats today about the dearth of Astros’ runs in this postseason — but remember that this team scored seven runs in Game Two of this series in LA to defeat the Dodgers and they are averaging 5.9 Runs-Per-Game away from home for the year which includes the playoffs. They give the ball to McCullers who was 7-4 with a 4.25 ERA and 1.30 WHIP this season. But while the right-hander thrived at home during the regular season with a 3.04 ERA with a 1.17 WHIP and .222 opponent’s batting average in nine starts, those numbers rose to a 5.14 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and .269 opponent’s batting average in thirteen regular season starts. And the Astros bullpen has a 6.12 ERA in their last seven games so there is little relief on the way if and when McCullers falters. 

Los Angeles (114-62) has played 22 of their last 33 home games Over the Total after not allowing more than two runs in their last game. Manager Dave Roberts really has little choice than give the ball to Darkish to start this game despite his getting shelled in Game Three of this series where he allowed four runs and six hits in just 1 2/3 innings of work. Darvish is at the epicenter of Slick Ball Gate with him being very dependent on a slider that was not dropping as much as he usually coaxes out of the baseball when getting hammered last Friday night. Even if the Slick Ball issues are rationalizations for poor pitching performances (I think it is real because I give credence to testimony from the likes of Justin Verlander and others), the fact is that the feel of the ball is now in Darvish’s head which will likely have a negative impact on his efforts tonight. As it is, Darkish has not been as effective at home as on the road this year. For the regular season between the Dodgers and Rangers, the right-hander has a 10-12 record with a 3.86 ERA with a 1.16 WHIP. At home during the regular season, Darkish had a 5.25 ERA with a .246 opponent’s batting average as compared to his 2.44 ERA and .206 opponent’s batting average on the road. With the Dodgers during the regular season, Darkish had a 4.84 ERA in four starts with a 1.21 WHIP and .250 opponent’s batting average as opposed to his 2.44 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and .223 opponent’s batting average in five starts. This will be Darvish’s first start at home for the Dodgers in this postseason. For his career, Darkish has a subpar 4.74 ERA in 24 2/3 innings of work in the playoffs. I do expect a short leash to be on Darkish tonight with Alex Wood the first likely candidate to replace him being on three days rest from a great start on Saturday. Clayton Kershaw will certainly take the mound as well — but he has never pitched well on short rest and is coming off that home outing where he allowed six earned runs. The Dodgers’ bullpen has a 4.07 ERA in their last seven games. Lastly, you may see some stats today about the dearth of Astros’ runs in this postseason — but remember that this team scored seven runs in Game Two of this series in LA to defeat the Dodgers and they are averaging 5.9 Runs-Per-Game away from home for the year which includes the playoffs. 20* MLB Wednesday Daily Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Houston Astros (913) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (914) listing both starting pitchers Lance McCullers and Yu Darvish.

At 8:20 PM ET on Tuesday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Houston Astros (911) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (912) listing both starting pitchers Justin Verlander and Rich Hill. I have spent the last day getting into the weeds regarding “Slick-Ball Gate” to see if there is something to this that is helping to generate more higher scoring games — like the Astros’ 13-12 home run fest on Sunday. And despite a Buster Olney tweet about the aggregate batting average against sliders in this World Series being lower than it was during the regular season, I have concluded that there is something going on here. That tweet from the ESPN baseball “expert” speaks volumes about the limitations of quantitative analytics (and the need for pundits to understand what statistics say and do not say). Just looking at one of the World Series baseballs versus the ones used during the regular season illustrates the difference. Verlander claims that even signing the baseballs illuminates a significant difference in how the ink is absorbed — or with these slick World Series balls — or smears. Verlander compared it to writing on carbon paper. Not only are the balls slicker but the seams on the ball are not raised. Olney probably was never a pitcher as a child. I was. Raised laces was essential for my ability to get spin on my breaking balls. Now, not all sliders are created equal (mine certainly wasn’t) — which is one of the reasons why Olney’s stat about the batting average against sliders in the World Series does not communicate nearly as much as he thinks it does. Some pitchers are still finding success in the World Series — like Alex Wood and Charlie Morton in Game Four (when we had the Over). But Wood and Morton do not throw sliders. And for the pitchers that do rely on sliders, even if “Slick Ball Gate” is not a rationalization for poor pitching in the Fall Classic, it is having a psychological effect at the very least. Wood and Morton are likely to see significant time on the mound if there is a Game Seven — but for Game Six, this shapes up to be another high scoring affair even with Verlander on the mound for the Astros. The veteran right-hander is not likely to pitch a complete game — and the Houston bullpen has been a disaster with a 7.58 ERA in this World Series. Verlander allowed three earned runs in 6 innings of work in his Game Two start — and the Astros have played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total with Verlander looking to follow up a Quality Start. Additionally, the Over is 13-5-1 in their last 19 games after an of day. The Over is also 3-1-1 in Houston’s last 5 games after allowing at least five runs in their last game — and the Over is 7-3-1 in their last 11 games against an opponent that allowed at least four runs in their last game. Furthermore, the Over is 9-4-1 in their last 14 road games against National League teams. And in their last 39 road games priced in the +/- 125 range, the Astros have played 26 of these games Over the Total. They face a Dodgers team scoring 6.1 Runs-Per-Game in their last seven games. Los Angeles has also played 7 of their last 9 home games Over the Total against right-handed starting pitchers. And in their last 5 games against starting pitchers with a WHIP of 1.15 or lower, the Over is 3-1-1.

Los Angeles (113-62) was favored on Sunday with Clayton Kershaw having the ball — and they have then played 36 of their last 52 home games Over the Total when looking to avenge a loss on the road where they were the favorite. The Over is also 6-2-1 in their last 9 games at home. They counter with Rich Hill who had a 12-8 record with a 3.32 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP during the regular season. Hill allowed only one earned run in Game Two in 4 innings of work. In his 29 career innings in the postseason, the left-hander sees his ERA and WHIP rise to 3.72 and 1.41 marks. Hill has not pitched into the 6th inning in any of his three starts in these playoffs — so that means the Dodgers’ bullpen that has a 5.32 ERA in the World Series will have to pitch at least four innings most likely. Los Angeles has played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total with Hill pitching at home. He faces an Astros team that is scoring 5.6 Runs-Per-Game over their last seven games. Lastly, Houston has played 6 of their last 7 road games Over the Total against left-handed starting pitchers. 10* MLB Tuesday Daily Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Houston Astros (911) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (912) listing both starting pitchers Justin Verlander and Rich Hill.

At 8:30 PM ET on Monday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Denver Broncos (273) and the Kansas City Chiefs (274). Denver (3-3) managed only 251 yards of offense last week in their 21-0 shutout loss in Los Angeles to the Chargers. But the Broncos did play well on defense as they held the Chargers to just 242 yards of offense in the losing effort. One of the Los Angeles touchdowns was via a 65-yard punt return. Denver leads the NFL by limiting their opponents to just 258.1 total YPG. The Broncos have played 6 straight games Under the Total after a loss on the road. Additionally, Denver has played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after a loss by at least two touchdowns. The Broncos have also played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total after both a straight-up loss as well as after a point spread setback. Furthermore, Denver has 9 of their last 13 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record.

Kansas City (5-2) looks to bounce-back from their 31-30 loss in Oakland as a 3-point favorite back on October 19th. The Chiefs have then played 19 of their last 26 games Under the Total after allowing at least 30 points in their last game. The Under is also 35-16-1 in their last 52 games after allowing at least 30 points in their last game. Furthermore, while Kansas City has failed to cover the point spread in their last two games, they have then played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after failing to cover the point spread in two straight games. Now the Chiefs return home to Arrowhead Stadium where they have played a decisive 40 of their last 58 games Under the Total — and this includes played eight straight games at home Under the Total with the number set in the 42.5 to 45 point range. Admittedly, the KC offense has been dynamic — they generated 425 yards against the Raiders fueled by Alex Smith completing 25 of 36 passes for 342 yards. But the Chiefs have played 23 of their last 32 games Under the Total after a game where they passed for at least 250 yards. 10* NFL Monday Daily Discounted Deal with Under the Total in the game between the Denver Broncos (273) and the Kansas City Chiefs (274).

At 8:30 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (271) and the Detroit Lions (272). Detroit (3-3) looks to bounce-back from their 52-38 loss in New Orleans two weeks ago. The Lions have played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after scoring at least 30 points in their last game. Detroit has also played 4 of the last 5 games Under the Total after a game where they surrendered at least 30 points. The Lions did pass for 312 yards in that loss — but they have then played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total after passing for at least 250 yards in their last game. Detroit is struggling to getting a credible ground game going as they have not rushed for more than 97 yards in four straight games. The Lions have then played 7 straight games Under the Total after failing to rush for at least 100 yards in their last game. Additionally, Detroit has played 4 straight games Under the Total after their bye week. With Golden Tate still not 100%, this Lions defense might struggle to reach the 298.0 total YPG they are averaging this season which is just 26th in the NFL.

Pittsburgh (5-2) has won two straight games with their 29-14 win over Cincinnati last week. The Steelers have then played 12 of their last 14 games Under the Total after a win by at least two touchdowns. Pittsburgh has also played 8 of their last 10 games Under the Total after allowing less than 15 points in their last contest. The Steel Curtain has been flexing their muscles so far this season by holding teams to just 16.3 PPG while allowing only 258.7 total YPG which are 3rd and 2nd best in the NFL respectively. The Steelers did generate 420 yards against the Bengals defense last week — but the Under is then 13-2-1 in their last 16 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last contest. Pittsburgh has also played 11 of their last 14 games on the road Under the Total — and they have played 9 of their last 11 road games Under the Total as the favorite. Lastly, in their last 26 games in the month of October, the Steelers have played 20 of these games Under the Total. 25* NFL Sunday Night Football Total of the Month with Under the Total in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers (271) and the Detroit Lions (272).

At 8:20 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Dodgers (909) and the Houston Astros (910) listing both starting pitchers Clayton Kershaw and Dallas Keuchel. Los Angeles (18-4) looks to build off their 6-2 victory over the Astros last night that evened this series at 2-2. The Under is then 5-1-1 in their last 7 games after a victory — and the Under is 4-0-1 in the Dodgers’ last 5 games after scoring at least five runs in their last game. Additionally, the Under is 6-1-1 in LA’s last 8 playoff games on the road. They give the ball to their ace Kershaw who is 3-0 with a 2.96 ERA and an 0.82 WHIP in 24 1/3 innings of work in these playoffs. The Under is 20-7-2 in the Dodgers’ last 29 road games with Kershaw starting against teams with a winning record. He faces cold Astros team that is hitting just .227 with a .289 On-Base Percentage and .713 OPS over their last seven games. Additionally, the Under is 5-1-1 in Houston’s last 7 games against starting pitchers with a WHIP of 1.15 or lower.

Houston (110-67) has now seen the Under go 4-1-1 in their last 6 games at home. The Astros have also played 33 of their last 56 games Under the Total when playing at least their third game in a row at home. They counter with Dallas Keuchel who will be looking to avenge his Game One loss to Kershaw. For the season, the left-hander had a 14-5 record with a 2.90 ERA with a 1.12 WHIP this season. Keuchel was outstanding at home during the regular season where he had a 2.26 ERA with a 0.95 WHIP and .187 opponent’s batting average in eleven starts as compared to his 3.53 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP and .245 opponent’s batting average in twelve starts on the road. In his 38 innings in his career in the playoffs, Keuchel has a 2.84 ERA with a 1.08 WHIP. Houston has played 10 of their last 14 games at home Under the Total with Keuchel on the hill.

At 4:05 PM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (267) and the Seattle Seahawks (268). Houston (3-3) has quickly transformed from a defensive-oriented low-scoring team to a high-flying offensive juggernaut that has to outscore their opponents. Season-ending injuries to J.J. Watt and Whitney Mercilus on defense along with the emergence of rookie QB Deshaun Watson has been the reasons for this transformation for Bill O’Brien’s team. Over his last three games coinciding with the return of Will Fuller at wide receiver, Watson has throw 12 TD passes with just two interceptions for a Passer Rating of 117. During that span, Watson is being sacked only once in ever 20 pass attempts — and he received a big boost this week when Houston’s star left tackle Duane Brown ended his holdout. Brown should be on the field this afternoon blocking for Watson and this rushing attack that is 3rd in the NFL by averaging 137.7 rushing YPG. The Texans come off their bye week after their 33-17 win over the Browns two weeks ago as a 7.5-point favorite. Houston has then played 6 of their last 8 games Over the Total after a straight-up win — and they have played 8 straight games Over the Total after a point spread victory. Additionally, the Texans have played 5 of their last 7 games Over the Total after a game where at least 50 combined points were scored. And in their last 5 games after scoring at least 30 points in their last game, Houston has played 4 of these games Over the Total. Moving forward, the Texans have played 4 straight games Over the Total against teams with a winning record. And in their last 21 games in the month of October, Houston has played 16 of these games Over the Total.

Seattle (4-2) has won three straight games after their 24-7 win in New York against the Giants last week. The Seahawks have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after a win by at last two touchdowns. Seattle has also played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total after allowing 14 or fewer points in their last game. Additionally, while the Seahawks held the Giants to only 146 passing yards in that game, they have then played 4 of their last 5 games Over the Total after not allowing more than 150 passing yards in their last game. Seattle scored only a field goal in the first half of that game last week — but they have then played a decisive 55 of their last 83 games Over the Total after a game where they did not score more than a field goal in the first half of their last game. Lastly, the Seahawks have played 5 of their last 6 games Over the Total as a home favorite not laying more than 7 points. 25* NFL Total of the Month with Over the Total in the game between the Houston Texans (267) and the Seattle Seahawks (268).

At 9:30 AM ET on Sunday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (251) and the Cleveland Browns (252). Cleveland (0-7) has already had a tumultuous trip to London this week when they were awoken by a late night alarm at their hotel. The Browns remained winless this season with their 12-9 loss in overtime to Tennessee last Sunday. Cleveland has then played 10 of their last 13 games Under the Total after a loss. The Browns have also played 4 of their last 5 games Under the Total after allowing less than 15 points in their last game. The Cleveland defense is good — they rank 9th in the league by allowing only 304.7 total YPG. But the offense is a mess as they rank 31st in the NFL by scoring 14.7 PPG. Rookie QB Deshone Kizer is clearly not ready for the league as he is struggling mightily with NFL defenses. His job just became much worse as well with the season ending injury to the rock on the Cleveland offensive line in Joe Thomas at left tackle. With Thomas out, expect the Browns to run the ball even more which will burn time off the clock. Cleveland has played 16 of their last 21 games Under the Total against teams with a winning record. And while the Browns have failed to cover the point spread in five of their last six games, they have then played 10 of their last 12 games Under the Total after playing five or six of their last seven games Under the Total.

Minnesota (5-2) has won four of their last five games with their 24-16 win over Baltimore as a 5.5-point favorite last week. The Vikings have then played 8 of their last 11 games Under the Total after a point spread win — and the Under is 18-7-1 in their last 26 games after a straight-up victory. Additionally, while Minnesota gained 357 yards against the Baltimore defense, they have then seen the Under go 17-7-1 in their last 25 games after gaining at least 350 yards in their last game. And in their last 6 games on the road after a victory, the Vikings have played all 6 games Under the Total. Minnesota is 4th in the NFL with a defense that allows just 284.0 total YPG. This game should be well in hand which means they will run the football a lot to play this game conservatively while respecting the Cleveland defense. Lastly, the Browns have played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total in the month of October. 25* NFL London Total of the Year with Under the Total in the game between the Minnesota Vikings (251) and the Cleveland Browns (252).

At 8:20 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Over the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Dodgers (908) versus the Houston Astros (907) listing both starting pitchers Charlie Morton and Alex Wood. Houston (110-66) has seen their bats wake up with the sense or urgency that filled them in the 8th inning of Game Two of this series when they were facing Kenley Jansen with a 3-1 deficit. Since those dire moments, the Astros have scored eleven runs in their twelve frames at bat which includes the remaining four innings in their 7-6 victory on Wednesday as well as their 5-3 win over the Dodgers last night in Game Three of this series. The Over is now 3-0-1 in their last 4 home games against teams with a winning record on the road. The Over is also 7-2-1 in their last 10 games against teams that allowed at least five runs in their last game. They give the ball to Morton who is 14-7 with a 3.62 ERA along with a 1.19 WHIP this season. But the right-hander has a 6.23 career ERA with a 1.54 WHIP in his three career starts in the postseason — so there is a good chance he will be feeling some nerves in his first appearance in the World Series. And remember, this Astros bullpen has been unreliable — to say the least. In these playoffs, the Houston bullpen has a 4.50 ERA.

Los Angeles (112-61) has seen the Over go 9-3-2 in their last 14 games after a loss. The Over is also 10-4-2 in the Dodgers’ last 16 games after allowing at least five runs in their last game. And in their last 6 road games against teams with a winning percentage over 60% at home, the Over is 4-1-1 for LA. They counter with Alex Wood who was 16-3 with a 2.72 ERA and 1.06 WHIP this season. But while the left-hander was lights out with a 1.67 ERA along with a 0.89 WHIP and .174 opponent’s batting average in 15 games (thirteen starts) prior to the All-Star Break, those numbers rose to a 3.89 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP and .262 opponent’s batting average in twelve regular season starts after the break. The Dodgers have played 4 straight games Over the Total with Wood pitching after a loss. The Astros have played 8 of their last 10 games Over the Total against left-handed starting pitchers. And manager Dave Roberts has exhausted his bullpen over the last two games after using eight relievers in Game Two and another five relievers last night. 10* MLB Saturday Night Discounted Deal with Over the Total in the game between the Los Angeles Dodgers (908) versus the Houston Astros (907) listing both starting pitchers Charlie Morton and Alex Wood.

At 12:00 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing Under the Total in the game between the Miami (FL) Hurricanes (129) and the North Carolina Tar Heels (130). Miami (6-0) remained undefeated last week with their 27-19 win over Syracuse as a 17.5-point favorite. The Hurricanes have then played 4 straight games Under the Total after a straight-up win. And while QB Malik Zaire passed for 344 yards in that victory, Miami has played 4 straight games Under the Total after a game where they generated at least 280 passing yards. Now they go back on the road where they have played 5 straight games Under the Total. The Hurricanes bring with them a defense that is 23rd in the FBS by holding opponents to just 18.7 PPG.

North Carolina (1-7) continued their disastrous season last week with a 5907 loss at Virginia Tech as a 20.5-point underdog. The Tar Heels managed just 172 yards of offense in that game. North Carolina has then played 7 of their last 10 games Under the Total after a point spread loss — and they have played 9 of their last 13 games Under the Total after a loss by at least 20 points. This team has also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total after failing to gain more than 275 yards in their last game. The Tar Heels are 113th in the FBS by averaging only 333.8 total YPG and they are scoring just 11 PPG in their last five games. They return home where they have played 6 of their last 8 games Under the Total. They also have now played 8 of their last 9 games Under the Total in the month of October. And in their last 5 games against teams with a winning record, UNC has played 4 of these games Under the Total. Together, these team trends produce our specific 52-12 combined angle for this situation. 10* CFB Miami (FL)-North Carolina ESPN2 O/U Special with Under the Total in the game between the Miami (FL) Hurricanes (129) and the North Carolina Tar Heels (130).
