I know Iowa St has some guys out which has obviously inflated this line a lot.  I just dont think TCU is good enough to be laying this many against anyone.  Iowa St is also good in this home underdog role at 4-1 their last 5 with wins over Texas Tech West Virginia and Oklahoma.  Iowa St can keep this close if not win despite the injuries 

I will take my chances here with Oklahoma St.  They have played themselves into the conversation at least but currently sit out with back to back losses.  A win wont guarantee anything, but will put them in the hunt at least.  Tech's best player in Evans has a foot injury and is questionable.  Even if he goes he wont be 100% plus Tech has Kansas on deck  

This game here is really make or break for Cuse and their season.  They win this and they are in the tournament no doubt about it.  UNC has been hot I can't take that away from them and it has been impressive.  Cuse has won 3 of their last 4 and 6 of their last 9.  I think their zone can create some problems here for UNC on offense.  I just like taking the desperate teams this time of the season you normally get some huge performances.  

Penn St isn't getting enough credit for the season they have had.  They are 14-3 at home and looking to make the NCAA tournament for the first time in a long time.  Michigan has won 5 of 6 but 4 of those were on their home court.  Throw in the fact they are coming off a huge win over their rival in Ohio St this is a major let down spot 

This games simply comes down to revenge for Wyoming and the home/road splits.  New Meixco is terrible on the road with a 2-10 SU record and Wyoming is 11-3 SU at home this season.  

Both of these teams are tied in conference play, but UNI is a bad bad road team with a 2-11 SU record.  Valpo is 10-3 at home and have covered 3 straight games.  I also think the revenge angle is huge here because UNI shot 38 free throws compared to just 16 for Valpo and UNI still barely beat them by just 5.

Vandy is 0-11 on the road do I really need to say anymore than that?  They are coming off back to back home wins over Florida and Miss St setting up for another road let down.  

I'm not a big fan of Nebraska myself but you cant ignore the fact that this team is one point away from having a perfect record at home this season.  Indiana has been beaten up on the bad teams here recently.  I know a lot dont like Nebraska but no other option than to take them here

I will take my chances here with the Wolfpack on their home court.  This NC St team is playing for a tournament berth.  They have quality wins and cant afford bad home losses.  Well at a short price here I think they can handle it even though this line has dropped quite bit.  BC is terrible on the road at a 3-8 SU record.  NC St is 13-3 at home 

The Gophers have clearly mailed this season in.  If you can't get up for a big time home game against a top ranked team then your done.  Minnesota lost at home by 30 to Michigan St.  You can't back a team like that.  Look at Wisconsin now, they come into tonight beating Purdue and are looking to end their rough season on a high.  People often forget that this is a rivalry game between these schools as well.

I like the Boilermakers to bounce back with a big game here tonight.  They are on a 3 game skid now, but all 3 were very tight games and could have gone either way.  They lost those 3 by a combined 8 points.  They have a huge size advantage here vs Penn St and with Penn St coming off a big win over Ohio St this isn't the greatest spot for them 

This is simply to good of a spot to not fade Houston.  They are coming off their biggest win of the year beating Cincinnati.  They have won 3 straight, but all of those were at home.  Temple is a respectable 7-4 at home.  They only lost to Houston by 3 in the first meeting despite the Cougars shooting 48% from the field.  Temple gets the W here today 

Talk about a line that smells funny.  Boy does this one ever stand out.  Nebraska has covered 8 straight, but they have beat all the bottom feeders in conference.  Well, here is another bottom feeder team but Illinois is 11-5 at home and they put up a great battle in the first meeting losing by just 1 while shooting just 39%

This is a nice short price here to back UCLA.  This team is on the bubble right now and cant afford a home loss.  Oregon is getting a lot of respect because they have 5 of their last 6 games.  UCLA has won 5 of their last 6 games though.  Oregon also just nipped UCLA by 3 in Oregon 

I really expect this line to go up throughout the day.  This is where North Carolina slips up here and drops one.  Louisville is 14-3 at home and have this one circled as clearly its a big game whenever North Carolina comes to town 

I dont trust this Texas Tech team at all.  I think they are the most overrated team in the country.  With Baylor playing their best basketball right now I believe they win this game SU

This is too many points here for Nevada.  They will take all the money as well since they are ranked, but they were just dogs @ Boise and won SU and now favored @ Utah St where they just beat Boise on their home court.  Tricky spot here for Nevada 

LSU has fared well at home with a 10-4 record.  Missouri is playing well I just think this is a big flat spot for them here 

Providence is coming off a their biggest win beating Nova.  This sets up for a huge flat spot here and Butler lost to Providence so the revenge angle as well is very strong 

This is just to short of price to pass up on with Xavier.  Xavier has established themselves as one of the best teams in the country and still aren't getting the respect they deserve at home.  Yes, I know they have huge look ahead with Nova coming to town, but Seton Hall is playing some bad basketball right now 

Auburn is sure getting a lot of love right now.  I know Kentucky isn't the same powerhouse freshman lead team but I'm not buying Auburn either.  Coach Cal will have them ready here for a big game tonight and while they may not win I think the effort is there to keep it close 

I dont like the trade the Lakers did giving up some of their young pieces for Thomas who has now turned into a huge ego guy.  He was after their recent game and they lost to the Mavs.  That says it all to me.  I think the Pelicans take care of business. 

I might be on the wrong side as this number has came down, but Drake isn't getting enough credit here with a 9-2 home record and both those losses came to the upper teams in the conference.  Indiana St is in terrible form right now as they are just 1-5 SU their last 6 

This is another line here that really makes no sense to me.  Southern Illinois should be a lot bigger favorite here.  They are playing very well right now winning 6 of their last 7 games.  Missouri St is coming off back to back wins but prior to that they were playing awful not covering 9 straight 

Getting this at + money is rare.  Kansas St has just been bad here as their offense is pretty much non existent.  Oklahoma St has improved a lot as the season goes on winning two huge road games @ Kansas and @ West Virginia. I look for Oklahoma St to continue their momentum 

Love Florida St tonight as they will take out some frustration on a Clemson team that is very overrated.  Yes, sure they have won some games now with their best player out, but that all comes to an end here tonight as Florida St is looking for a big time to get them a spot in the tournament  

Northwestern will be the desperate team here as of right now they are outside looking on the the tournament.  A loss here for sure would keep them out and a win would still keep them a float.  This is a veteran group I trust in Coach Collins to get his kids fired up even though it is Rutgers.

Miami is just too good of home team with a 9-1 record to pass up on here.  Virginia has been pretty fortunate this season I believe surviving a lot of close games.  It has to catch up at some point and I think we saw that last game as they fought back and lost in OT on their home court 

Pitt is terrible I know, but Boston College on the road is terrible as well.  BC hasn't been favored in a true road game and when you find teams that are in unfamiliar roles you have to play against them.  Wouldn't be surprised to see Pitt sneak one out 

Texas Tech is a team that plays some of the best defense in the country.  They won't have a problem here at home containing the stud freshman trae Young.  OU did hand Tech one of their 4 losses and Tech will be out for revenge.  Tech has 6 straight while OU has really fallen off just 2-6 SU thier last 8 

I will take my chances here with G Town to keep it close or at least within single digits.  They just upset Seton Hall for the first win in 4 games.  G Town was coming off 3 straight covers on the road against Creighton Xavier and Providence.  I wonder about Butler here coming off two of their biggest games in Xavier and Nova that both resulted in losses.  

This is an easy play here for me.  The Jazz are on fire right now winning 9 straight and play a Spurs team that hasn't been healthy all season.  

No choice but to take West Virginia here as I think they get their revenge this time around and will take advantage of TCU without their PG in Fisher.  West Virginia should be hungry here for a big bounce back as they suffered an ugly loss over the weekend to Oklahoma St.  

The Nets are racking up much wins as of late, but they have covered 2 of their last 3 games.  I just think are being over valued here as they are playing their 3rd road game in 4 days and also have two massive look ahead games with Boston and Golden St next.  This seems like the perfect flat spot for the Clippers

The Aggies are starting to play like the team we saw back in November.  A top 5 team with a ton of talent.  They have won 3 straight games and 5 of their last 7.  This Kentucky team still gets a lot of respect but they simply aren't the team we are use to seeing 

Texas Tech is the most overrated team in the country and I will gladly fade this team down the stretch here.  They have won 5 straight but none of those wins were against NCAA Tournament teams.  Kansas St isn't a fur sure thing right now to get in, but a win here would almost seal the deal.  I like how they responded at Texas as an underdog and think they get another here 

I will take ASU here who has won 3 of their last 4.  Yes, UCLA is playing well themselves but this is the prime let down spot after beating a top 10 ranked Arizona team on the road.  ASU is 11-2 at home this season coming off a nice win over USC.  I think the Devils play one of their best games 

This Bama team just seems to rise to the occasion on their home court like they did as dogs against Oklahoma not to long ago.  Bama is another one of these teams that need s a big time victory.  Sitting at 15-9 you cant lose these huge home games.  I also think Tennessee is being over valued here since they were just dogs at Kentucky who is worse than Bama 

The Irish have had a rough go of things and the main reason is because of the injuries to Colson their All-American but also Farell their 2nd best player and best shooter.  Farell is back in the lineup and the Irish are desperate for wins.  

Auburn is just one of those teams it's hard to put a finger on this season.  They have a great record because of their non conference schedule racking up wins against a bunch of nobodies.  They just lost by 1 to Texas AM and now have Kentucky on deck.  This isn't the ideal spot for them.  I also think we will get a max effort from Georgia here who has been struggling

I think this jump here is way too big on Oklahoma.  Has anyone seen them play on the road?  They have lost their last 5 SU.  Iowa St is having a down year, but they still pack Hilton and it's a tough place to play.  I also think Iowa St will bounce back after two straight ugly losses 

Taking the Sun Devils here at a fairly short price on their home court.  I know they have struggled in conference play, but I do think we get a huge effort considering they are playing one of the better teams in USC.  I also think the Trojans are looking ahead to their showdown with PAC 12 Zona this weekend 

Are the Wizards really a better team now without Wall?  I'm not buying it.  The Celtics are the better team and with them coming off a blowout loss to the Raptors we will get a max effort here.  Celtics are a bad matchup for this Wizards team down a superstar

No one wants to back this Pitt team who has yet to win a game in the conference.  This is just way too many though for a Clemson team to be laying without their best player.  There is no motivation here at all for Clemson and I think Pitt can keep it closer than people think.  Pitt has covered 5 of their last 6

I think Auburn is now getting a little too much love from the odds makers here because of their ranking.  I think people are forgetting that this Aggies team was ranked in the top 5 earlier this season.  Sure they haven't played up to potential but they have a ton of talent on that team and will give Auburn all they want

This Georgia team is throwing the towel in for the season now.  They are just 2-6 SU their last 8 games.  Vandy despite having a bad record still plays hard as they have covered 4 of their last 5 games.  I also give Vandy a pass because 4 of their last 6 have been on the road and they had won their 2 home games 

I got a good number here on Iowa as this line is dropping.  This just has the feeling as one of those weird National televised game against a superior opponent but it comes down to the wire.  I dont Michigan St cares about this game at all especially given the fact they have Purdue on deck

Ole Miss is a solid 10-4 at home this season.  They are catching Missouri at the right time here with them coming off a huge win over Kentucky on the weekend.  Missouri has had a ton of injuries this season and are just an average road team at best

I really think this is a cheap price here on Providence.  To me G Town is the worst team in the conference.  Providence should be excited here returning home after 3 road games while G Town is on their 3rd straight road game.  The reason for the low line is because G Town did cover @ Creighton and Xavier.  They run out of gas tonight 

These two teams already have met and Tennessee came out on top.  I like Kentucky this time around to get the revenge.  They have had this game circled no doubt and that is why I am giving them a pass for their last game at Mizzou.  Kentucky wins a hard fought game 

This a huge game for Northwestern if they have any hopes of making the tournament next month.  Collins has this team playing up to par now after they have struggled a large part of the season.  He knows the importance of this game and they will get the job done 

With the Bulls being hurt with Dunn and Lauri out I think that puts them in trouble.  They are also in one of those funks again losing 5 straight games.  Kings have enough here to get the job done against another young team 

The Jazz are red hot right now, but I think it's time to play against them as they are coming off a huge win over the Spurs.  This will be their 3rd game in 4 days.  The key here is that the Jazz ad their young stud in Mitchell is sick tonight and may or may not play.  Well even if he does he isn't 100% 

Louisville has lost 3 of their last 4 games, but now they are playing a terrible Syracuse team in which they shouldn't have a problem with.  Cuse really struggles big time on offense as they barely score over 60 a game in conference.  Louisville plays solid defense and won't have a problem shutting them down 

You have two of the worst teams in the Big 12 and Baylor here is laying a massive number.  The thing is though Iowa St is coming off a huge victory against West Virginia.  Iowa St on the road in conference play has lost all of them by double digits except for 1 game.  Baylor is simply due for a big game and it happens here tonight 

I would grab this one as soon as possible.  I think Texas clicking right now and they will be up for this game here today.  They are one of those teams that need more quality wins and this would be a huge one for them.  There is just way too much love for Oklahoma and Trae Young, not that they are a bad team but Vegas does inflate lines who the betting public loves

You just cant ignore the fact how good Stanford has been against the number in conference play.  They are 8-2 ATS in conference and only laying 1 here I think they get it done.  Oregon is coming in winning 3 straight but I think they are a little over valued this season .

I think we get a pretty pissed off West Virginia team here coming off 3 straight losses and just a horrible loss @ Iowa St losing by 16 as nearly double digit favorites.  The talent gap between these two teams is just to big.  West Virginia didn't even play well in the first meeting and still won by 8 on the road

Gut check time here for Marquette.  They have now lost 3 straight games and a realyl bad one last game at home against Butler where they lost by 20.  I think Wojo will have them ready here today for a huge bounce back game.  

This is the time where Clemson comes down to reality missing arguably their best player.  Wake Forest is a team that doesn't give up and I actually think they will pull the upset here today  

Texas Tech may be ranked in the top 10, but is everyone really buying it?  I'm sure not.  I missed the -3 but the fact that this is climbing says a lot about who is actualyl the better team.  TCU has had so many close losses or else they could easily be in first place 

Brogdon is out tonight for the Bucks and Giannis is questionable.   Even if Giannis doesn't play I like Milwaukee to bounce back from an ugly loss last night to the T Wolves.  I also think the fact that Jabari Parker returns to the lineup will serve as enough motivation as well 

The Heat continue to get no respect despite being the 4th best team in the Eastern Conference just behind the Cavs.  I can't trust the Sixers at this moment having lost 3 straight games. I also think the betting public does love Philly and their young team but I'm not buying into it. 

Let's back the Hornets here who will be looking for a quick revenge spot on the Pacers.  The Hornets have had their ups and downs, but I think they are catching the Pacers at the right time as their head coach is out and so is Myles Turner.  

It has been a rough go in conference for the Aggies.  A large part here recently is simply due to the fact that they have played 4 of their last 6 on the road and have lost all 4.  This team was a legit top 10 team and has a ton of talent.  

Oklahoma is getting much love now since they have lost 3 of their last 4 games.  However, all 3 of them came on the road against quality teams.  Baylor just struggles big time and Drew is about as overrated coach as they come.  Baylor has lost 3 straight and coming off a blowout loss by Florida.  

It has been a really rough year for Iowa sitting at 2-8 on the season in conference play.  I do think they are a play on team here at home down the stretch.  The fact Minnesota couldn't get up for their last game vs Northwestern in a perfect spot says it all to me about where this Gopher team is headed 

I have no clue why this line is so low.  St Johns has yet to win a conference game and things dont look much better going forward.  Xavier has been taking care of business winning 4 straight and have have had 5 days off so are fresh.  

UNC shouldn't have a problem here after dropping 2 straight.  I think Roy will have them ready here to knock of Clemson who is short handed.  UNC should have more focus than ever coming into this game . 

Kansas St is getting absolutely zero credit here from the odds makers.  They should be favored here in this game on their home court considering they lost by one 1 @ Kansas earlier in the season.  

The Heat have been a nice surprise this season no taking that away from them, I just think with all the travel they have had here recently they are a play against team for a while.  They played 5 straight road followed by just two games against poor teams and didnt show for those.  Now they are back on the road and have a huge look ahead with the Cavs next 

I will back the Bucks here at this short price.  They will be wanting some serious revenge from last week against the Sixers as they played without Giannis.  Both teams are on a back to back situation here.  I think this line climbs big time throughout the day so grab it now 

I dont think most will be on Temple here, but UConn has been a very poor road team and are coming off a huge win as an underdog over SMU.  Temple should be hungry here for a bounce back after they were just destroyed @ Cincy last game.  

The Raptors should be plenty motivated here as they dropped their last home game vs the Jazz.  They are now 17-4 at home this season.  I think the Lakers will really struggle here tonight without Ball in the lineup.  The Lakers have been playing well no doubt about it, but a large part of those games have been at home.  

The Yellow Jackets on their home court here tonight against Clemson who comes in ranked.  Well that ranking won't last after Tech beats them SU here tonight.  Clemson has suffered a major loss due to injury in Grantham.  Don't sleep on this Tech team especially on their home court

I'm gonna take Miss St here at this short price.  I will forgive their last two games which were both on the road.  Missouri have no excuse as they laid in egg last gmae at home vs Auburn.  

Cant say I have been very impressed with Miami here recently.  They have only twice in their last 6 games one of those was a close 6 point win over this Florida St team.  Florida St is the better team here and are 9-1 at home this season.  The revenge angle is this rivalry is huge.  

Oklahoma is easily one of the most public teams on the season right now because of their freshman PG Trae Young.  I just think the love crush is really inflating their lines.  He has to do everything for them and I think he get worse down on the road as they have lost their last 3 road games.  Bama wants a huge win at home and believe they get one today 

I like Evansville here today against Drake.  The Bulldogs have really fallen off after a hot start in the MVC.  I guess you could say they were lucky considering they won some close games.  I just think Evansville here shows up as they are 10-2 at home and will want revenge from an ugly loss earlier to Drake 

It's crazy to think that Arizona St hasn't covered a closing line yet in conference play, but that is exactly true after 7 games.  They return home here and get Utah and while most will say this is the revenge spot for Utah.  I think they played one of their best games vs ASU the first time and still couldn't beat them.  The last two road games for Utah weren't pretty getting blown @ USC and UCLA

I like the Nuggets to get the job done here tonight.  Porzingis is going to play, but I'm not sure he is quite 100%.  Also the Knicks have to be a tired team right now playing their 6th consecutive road game and especially coming off the Warriors where you know they gave a max effort.  Denver was actually favored by 5 @ New York in the first meeting.  So this is a discount price we cant pass up

This is too many points for Purdue to lay here.  Yes, they are playing great and do have a huge home court advantage, but double digits against another top team in the Big Ten is tough to swallow.  Remember this Michigan team walked into their rival Michigan St and beat them down.  I'm not saying that will happen but I will gladly take double digit points

This isn't your typical VCU team here.  They have really fallen off this season and especially on the road.  They are just 2-5 SU on the road.  Saint Louis has had their struggles no doubt about it but they have won 2 straight games will want to beat VCU who still has the household name 

The Gophers here cant afford another loss and given that it's on their home court they really need this one.  They are 10-3 on their home court while NW has struggled going 2-6 away from home.  Minnesota needs this if they want any part of the NCAA tournament.  It's getting crunch time now in the season
