This is a play on the SEATTLE REDHAWKS for our Wednesday Free Play. It has been a struggle for both teams and we are backing the home team. Seattle is coming off a 21-point loss against Gonzaga and the first season in the West Coast Conference has not been a smooth transition for the Redhawks as they are 2-5. The schedule makers did them no favors as they have already had to face Gonzaga twice, St. Mary’s and San Francisco, the top three projected teams coming into the season. Seattle did go 11-2 in the nonconference part of their schedule and things lighten up tonight. This is the start of four of their next five games against teams ranked lower in the NET Rankings. Loyola Marymount has lost three straight games to fall to 2-6 in the conference and while one of those wins was against the aforementioned San Francisco, it was by two points at home that took overtime. The Lions opened the season 6-0 that included two road wins but have lost their last four road games. Play (756) Seattle Redhawks

This is a play on the NEW ORLEANS PELICANS for our NBA Ultimate Underdog. Detroit is coming off a win over Boston on Monday which was its third straight win while going 5-1 in its last six games, all of those taking place at home with the one setback coming against the Clippers. The Pistons hit the road for just one game in a horrible letdown spot after facing the No. 2 team in the Eastern Conference and have a game on deck back home against Houston so this is the sleepy road spot. Speaking of Houston, the Pelicans are coming off a loss against the Rockets on the road and return home where they are 7-18 with those 18 losses being the most in the NBA. The line is obviously taking this into consideration and on the season, New Orleans is two games over .500 against the number. The Pelicans are 9-5 ATS in their last 14 home games as the inflated numbers have been beneficial and this is another good spot. 10* (522) New Orleans Pelicans

This is a play on the NEW YORK KNICKS for our NBA Signature Enforcer. The Knicks have been in a freefall as they have dropped nine of their last 11 games including loss in both games at home following their 1-3 west coast roadtrip. We played them in a revenge game against Phoenix in the first game back and they blew a double-digit lead in a seven-point loss and we stayed away last game against Dallas as they were rolled by 17 points, their sixth double-digit loss over this stretch, and were booed off the floor. A players only meeting was held on their day off and this is the spot to get right. The Nets have lost two straight games and seven of their last eight with the lone victory being a three-point home win over Chicago. Brooklyn has lost five straight on the road and has been a punching bag for the Knicks the last few seasons as they have lost the last 12 meetings, seven straight at MSG including five by double digits. 10* (520) New York Knicks

This is a play on the TEMPLE OWLS for our CBB Late Enforcer. We lost with Temple on Sunday as it led throughout but lost the lead late in a collapse over the final five minutes. It was the second straight loss for the Owls as they are now 3-2, losing to two of the top five teams in the American and now they can make both of those games back as the schedule eases up. Temple is 2-2 on the road with the wins over Davidson and Charlotte which are both ranked higher than Rice and while being a dog at Charlotte, the Owls are favored here. The other Owls are coming off a win at UTSA two make it two wins in three games, both victories on the road, following a three-game losing streak. Rice is 8-10 overall with the only other significant win was against Arkansas St. by only one point as two of eight were non-Division I wins and three others against teams ranked No. 267 or higher. 10* (725) Temple Owls

This is a play on the WESTERN CAROLINA CATAMOUNTS for our CBB Contrarian Crusher. This is one of the bigger contrarian plays as Western Carolina comes in off a home loss against Chattanooga to make it seven losses in its last nine games and it is now 2-4 in the Southern Conference. The Catamounts are back on the road where they are 1-9, part of the contrarian angle, with the win coming at Furman 18 days ago and a handful of their road losses include Cincinnati, Duke, Virginia Tech and Georgia so the schedule has not been easy. The Bears side also offers contrarian pieces as they have won four straight games after losing their first two conference games on the road. Mercer has now covered seven straight games  and the situation put it in auto fade and on top of that, the Bears are 8-0 at home but that does include three non-Division I wins and while this team is not, it is sell high time. 10* (707) Western Carolina Catamounts

This is a play on the DRAKE BULLDOGS for our CBB Ultimate Underdog. Murray St. has quietly won 12 consecutive games and is off to an 8-0 start in the Missouri Valley Conference which is good for a game and a half lead. The Racers have been able to avoid the road upset as they are 3-0 in the conference with a convincing win over Evansville, the lowest NET Ranked team in the MVC, but a pair of close calls at Valparaiso and Illinois Chicago and this is another test against a team ranked very similar. It was expected to be a regression season for Drake after going 17-3 and the Bulldogs have fallen to a 3-5 start in the conference. The home court has not been there as after going 14-2 last season, they are 4-6 but three losses were by two points and another two defeats by five points each so that record could be better and this is the buy low time. Murray St. is at Northern Iowa next. 10* (704) Drake Bulldogs
