This is a play on the NEW YORK KNICKS for our NBA Signature Enforcer. New York is back home following a rough roadtrip where it went 1-3 and going back the Knicks are 2-7 in their last nine games to fall into third place in the Eastern Conference. of the seven losses, five have been on the road and the Knicks are back home where they are 16-4 and hoping to get Jalen Brunson back. One of the recent roadtrip losses came in Phoenix so this is a quick revenge game and the Knicks are 5-0 ATS this season revenging a loss as road favorites. Phoenix was on a 9-2 run but has dropped the first two games of this six-game roadtrip and this is not the ideal spot for a rebound. While the Knicks are dealing with Brunson, Devin Booker is questionable for the Suns so keep an eye on both for line value but this is a play on New York no matter the decisions for either of them. Here, we play against teams off a road cover where the team lost straight up as an underdog going against an opponent off a road loss by 10 points or more. This situation is 108-56 (65.9 percent) since 2017. 10* (536) New York Knicks

This is a play on the WASHINGTON HUSKIES for our Saturday Free Play. Michigan St. has won three straight games by double digits with all of those coming at home and the Spartans head west for a two-game spot here against Washington and then at Oregon on Tuesday. They are 1-1 on the road with the win at Penn St. and a hard fought loss against undefeated Nebraska and its two overall losses have come against teams with one combined loss, Duke being the other at 16-1. This is just their second Quad 2 road game. Washington has lost three of its last four games, the first two coming at Indiana and Purdue and then losing by 10 points at home against Michigan on Wednesday. The Huskies will be the popular fade here based on the opponent and the fact they are 1-4 in Quad 1 games but this is only the second one at home. Play (820) Washington Huskies

This is a play on the IDAHO VANDALS for our CBB Late Powerhouse. Idaho is coming off a loss at Idaho St. on Thursday to fall to 2-2 in the Big Sky Conference. The Vandals are on a 1-4 ATS run and the value is here as they remain on the road where they are 3-5 and of the previous four road losses, two were by five points combined with the other two against Notre Dame and UC San Diego, their two highest ranked opponents. Weber St. has won and covered four straight games to improve to 4-1 in the conference, the lone loss coming in overtime against Portland St. The Wildcats are 7-3 at home but two of those wins were non-Division I victories and three wins against teams ranked No. 257 or worse. 10* (809) Idaho Vandals

This is a play on the UC SANTA BARBARA GAUCHOS for our CBB Late Enforcer. UC Santa Barbara snapped a three-game losing streak with a win over CS Bakersfield on Thursday which evened its record at 3-3 in the Big West Conference. The Gauchos failed to cover against the Roadrunners and they are now on a 0-4 ATS run, 4-11 overall, and they head back home where they are 6-2, the first loss in overtime against Loyola Marymount and then in its most recent home game against UC Davis. Hawaii is coming off a 20-point win against Cal Poly Thursday to open its two-game trip to the mainland where it is now 2-2. This sets up similar to two weeks ago, coming off a Thursday road win and then a Saturday loss. 10* (808) UC Santa Barbara Gauchos

This is a play on the MISSISSIPPI ST. BULLDOGS for our CBB Rivalry Rout. Mississippi St. remains home following a 15-point loss to Alabama on Tuesday which came after a 14-point loss at Kentucky last Saturday. The Bulldogs are 7-2 at home with the other loss coming against SMU in overtime back in November and this is a good spot to back them as they will be a fade based on those two recent losses but they were 2-0 in the SEC with wins over Texas and Oklahoma. The Rebels are coming off a huge upset as they won in Athens, defeating Georgia by a bucket as 10.5-point underdogs and that was the first road win of the season after starting 0-2. Mississippi is 2-6 in Quad 1 and Quad 2 games. 10* (798) Mississippi St. Bulldogs

This is a play on the SAN DIEGO ST. AZTECS for our CBB Late Attraction. San Diego St. got off to a rough start but it has found something as the Aztecs were the preseason pick to win the Mountain West Conference and they are off to a 6-0 start with solid wins over Boise St. and Nevada. This comes after a 6-4 nonconference record which included a double overtime loss against Sun Belt Conference favorite Troy in their third game of the season, a loss against Baylor in Las Vegas and losses against No. 1 Michigan and No. 2 Arizona. New Mexico has won and covered four straight games and is 5-1 in the conference, 3-0 at home and 2-1 on the road with one of those roadies coming at No. 342 Air Force. Auto fade. 10* (796) San Diego St. Aztecs

This is a play on the WOFFORD TERRIERS for our CBB Ultimate Underdog. This is a good bounce back spot for Wofford which opened 3-0 in the Southern Conference but has lost its last two games which includes a loss at Mercer despite putting up 97 points which at the time was its third straight game scoring 95 or more points. The Terriers lost at home to Chattanooga by nine points last time out as they could not buy a basket. They are back on the road where they are 5-5 with three of those losses coming against George Mason, Auburn and Wichita St. Furman is 4-1 in the SoCon following three straight wins and while 8-2 at home, three wins were non-Division I and another against No. 341 VMI. 10* (755) Wofford Terriers

This is a play on the UT MARTIN SKYHAWKS for our CBB Letdown Fadeaway. Tennessee Martin is off to a solid 14-4 start including going 6-1 in the Ohio Valley Conference following six straight wins after an opening loss at Tennessee St. We played against the Skyhawks Thursday and failed to get the cover against SIUE but we are behind them here as they look to improve to 9-0 at home and while the schedule has not been difficult, it has been stronger than that of Lindenwood. The Lions have gotten off to a surprisingly good start as they are 5-2 in the conference as they were picked to finish second to last. Lindenwood is off a 12-point upset as 6.5-point underdogs at SE Missouri St. to go to 3-6 on the road. 10* (734) UT Martin Skyhawks

This is a play on the NORTHWESTERN WILDCATS for our CBB Contrarian Crusher. The Nebraska run has to come to an end at some point and what better way than to go contrarian in a spot that no one will be fading the Huskers. They are off to a 17-0 start and they have won 21 straight games going back to last season following a 35-point home win over Oregon. Nebraska is back on the road where it is 3-0 with the most recent win coming at Indiana last Saturday as it rallied from a 16-point deficit. Northwestern has dropped four straight games starting with a six-point home loss and ending with an 11-point home loss to Illinois and this is another test but we have the ultimate buy low/sell high spot. 10* (724) Northwestern Wildcats

This is a play on the CENTRAL FLORIDA KNIGHTS for our CBB Afternoon Enforcer. UCF has the chance to pull off another big upset at home as it has already defeated Kansas this season where it is now 10-1. The Knights are 3-1 in the Big 12 Conference with the loss coming at Oklahoma St. which was the letdown spot following the win over the Jayhawks and they have won two straight games since then against Cincinnati and Kansas St. so there is no letdown heading into this one. A win is on the table but UCF is getting a huge number. Arizona has been rolling along at 17-0 including a 3-0 record on the road with a Quad 1 win at Connecticut back in November and now facing the highest rated opponent since then. 10* (718) Central Florida Knights

This is a play on the COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON COUGARS for our CAA Game of the Month. Charleston had its seven-game winning streak snapped with a nine-point loss at Towson on Thursday and we went against the Cougars with our free play and now this is the time to jump back on. They are now 2-3 on the road but those first two losses were when they were severely shorthanded and while not back to full strength, they are as close as they will get with the return of Colby Duggan. We did have a play on Stony Brook and it was more of a sell high time for Hofstra which had won eight straight games and this is a spot where the Seawolves should regress back to their 1-6 run prior to their win on Thursday. 10* (703) College of Charleston Cougars

This is a play on the WESTERN KENTUCKY HILLTOPPERS for our CBB Supreme Annihilator. Kennesaw St. turned things around as after a 0-4 run including three losses to open Conference-USA, it has won three straight games, all at home, but now that momentum has been shot. Kennesaw St. has been linked to the ongoing gambling probe that was released on Thursday and with that, leading scorer and Preseason player of the Year Simeon Cottle has been suspended for his unknown involvement. The Owls hit the road where they are 2-3. Western Kentucky has won two straight games to improve to 4-2 in the conference with both losses coming on the road. The Hilltoppers are 8-1 at home, losing only to Tulsa by a point. 10* (686) Western Kentucky Hilltoppers

This is a play on the ST. BONAVENTURE BONNIES for our CBB Revenge Rout. St. Bonaventure needs a get right game after opening the Atlantic Ten Conference season 0-4. The Bonnies started off 10-1 with that loss coming against North Carolina before splitting the next two games prior to the start of conference action. They have No. 293 Illinois-Chicago on deck so two wins are imperative with three of the next four after that against the top three teams in the conference. LaSalle has lost two straight games to fall to 1-4 in the conference and while the Explorers are back home, there is no home court advantage here as they are 3-3 which includes a non-Division I win and a victory over No. 364 Coppin St. 10* (679) St. Bonaventure Bonnies

This is a play on the ILLINOIS ST. REDBIRDS for our CBB Bounceback Baller. It has been a brutal stretch for Illinois St. as it has lost three straight games after a 4-0 start in the Missouri Valley Conference, part of an 11-1 run with the loss coming against No. 22 Utah St. by five points. This is the get right spot as the Redbirds are back home where they are 7-1, the loss coming last Saturday in overtime against Illinois Chicago. While it is not must win time just yet, a loss here will likely put the preseason favorites four games out of first place. Bradley opened 3-0 before a pair of losses but has won its last three to move to 6-2 in the conference. This includes a 2-2 record on the road with the two wins coming in overtime. 10* (660) Illinois St. Redbirds

This is a play on the VANDERBILT COMMODORES for our CBB Afternoon Attraction. Vanderbilt finally got taken down as after a 16-0 start, the Commodores went to Austin and were handled fairly easy by Texas in a 16-point loss. It was its worst offensive performance of the season as it scored a season low 64 points while shooting only 37 percent from the floor. They are back home where they are 9-0 and now playing their second Quad 1 game in Nashville. Florida is starting to look like the team that is the reigning National Champion as it has won three straight games following a 17-point win at Oklahoma which was its first road win of the season. It was a Quad 1 win as well where they are just 3-5. 10* (650) Vanderbilt Commodores

This is a play on the FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL PANTHERS for our CBB Platinum Pickem. FIU opened up 2-1 in Conference-USA with the loss coming in overtime against top rated Liberty and it has been three straight losses for the Panthers since then but all of those have been on the road and all being competitive. They are back home where they are 9-2 with that Liberty loss along with a loss to James Madison back in November. This is a big home game with two road games on deck as well as four of their next five. Sam Houston is also 2-4 in the conference while it is coming off a win, part of a 2-1 run after a 0-3 start. The Bearkats are 3-6 on the road with all three wins against lower rated teams than the Panthers. 10* (642) Florida International Panthers

This is a play on the GEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS for our CBB Afternoon Dominator. Georgia Tech has dropped three straight games, all by double digits, and the number is reflecting this run as the Yellow Jackets are back on the road. They are 0-3 in true road games but they have been competitive in all of those against Georgia, Duke and Miami which are a combined 45-6 and they came out of those with covers in all three games, losing by a combined 21 points. NC State is coming off a 44-point win at Florida St. as it won both road games last week to improve to 3-1 in the ACC. The Wolfpack are back home for just this one game before a big lookahead game at Clemson on Tuesday and are overpriced. 10* (615) Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
