Bengals v. Chargers -14 | | 21-26 |
Loss | -120 | 28 h 31 m | Show |
Taking the CHARGERS. I think they are just begging you to take Cincy. Look- I had the Steelers last week. Thought I was sitting pretty at the half. And then here come LAC. Now, we have had these guys a few times this year. I will grab them here. No let-down. This is a very good team. Both coaches for me are crap. And the guy on the other sideline should be run out of town after this season. Back up QB vs a tough defense. Potent offense vs the worse defense in the league. Chargers are scoring 35-40 today. Does Cincy get 20? 8* Sure Shot LA CHARGERS |

Falcons v. Packers -4.5 | Top | 20-34 |
Win | 100 | 25 h 49 m | Show |
Taking GREEN BAY. Not over thinking here. Dome team in cold weather. Aaron Rodgers gets his coach fired and I expect a huge day. Not just for him, but the entire offense. Defense is what it is. This is really a dead number - I don't think this is a FG game. This is GB running away by 2+ TDs as the Falcons, already sitting in last place, see their season slip away further. 10* Money Bomb GREEN BAY PACKERS. |

Saints -9.5 v. Bucs | | 28-14 |
Win | 100 | 25 h 34 m | Show |
Taking the SAINTS. Have these guys at -7 that I put in last Sunday. Have them in Super Contest -8. No problem laying double digits today. New Orleans with rest. New Orleans with revenge. New Orleans defense vastly improved since Game 1 (we did have Tampa). New Orleans with 7 sacks last vs Dallas. New Orleans off worse offensive game since 2010. I"m not impressed with Tampa beating Washington, SF and Carolina at home. The first 2 offenses scare nobody. And Carolina, well, they were 6-2 at one point, now 6-6, so they are sputtering. Tampa defense may look improved. But they won't shut down a determined Saints offense. Bucs do have a great offense. #1 offense, #1 passing in the league. But prone to TOs. The defense is 27th overall, 28th against pass. Hello Brees to Thomas for 180 and 2 TDs. I'm looking at Kimara, Ingram and even Taysom Hill to have a big impact today. 4* Money Maker NO SAINTS |

Taking the PATRIOTS. I am sure the 20 something people ahead of me in the Super Contest will be on the home dogs. They see Miami's 27-20 win last year and think more of the same. Well, we here Brady talking about how Dolphins play good and we don't in Miami. I am expecting more of what we have seen in 3 of the last 4 encounters between these two teams. They have been 35-7, 35-17 and 35-14. 5* Best Bet NE PATRIOTS |

Rockets -3 v. Mavs | | 104-107 |
Loss | -105 | 9 h 15 m | Show |
Taking the ROCKETS. I really try to pick and choose spots in NBA. We had a nice revenge spot last night Golden State, and we have another here with Houston. Dallas beat them by 20. Now, after scoring 91 in 2 straight road losses, Rockets with a shot at pay-back. If we get a combined 30 from Harden and Paul we are in trouble vs any NBA team. That has been the output the last couple games from our leaders. I am looking for a big game and a 10pt win from the visitors. 4* Money Maker HOUSTON ROCKETS |

Win | 100 | 40 h 9 m | Show |
Taking ARMY. I know when these guys play, you can toss out records and spreads. But this Army team is pretty good this year. I think they should cash at least a 10pt win this afternoon. Maybe the Sooners overlooked them at home in that over-time affair. But Army came out the next week, no let-down, hang-over, and took it to a pretty good Buffalo team on the road putting up 42 points. At 3-9 Navy is wrapping up a long season. Army looking to for back to back 10 win seasons. 4* Money Maker ARMY |

Taking GREENSBORO. Have cashed with these guys a few times already. They are a top mid-major program. Elon will be bringing up the rear in the CAA, while NCG should be dancing for the So Con. Greensboro crushed these guys last year 75-44 and I would think about 15-20 win is on tap tonight. 4* Money Maker NC GREENSBORO |

Fellas. I don't know what to say. Northeastern really wet the bed for us. But another near miss by a bucket with CMU.

Just one play as of now - Taking LOYOLA MARYMOUNT. 4* Money Maker -- - Texas, Cal , Rio Grande could be in play later today. |

Chargers v. Steelers -3.5 | | 33-30 |
Loss | -100 | 99 h 27 m | Show |
Taking the STEELERS. Hate going against the Chargers. We have had them several times already this year. But Pitt at home is a different animal. Big Ben, totally different at Heinz field. Will probably look into the over here as the game gets closer also. Flex helps a bit so it's not an early body clock game for LAC - If the Chargers had a healthy Gordon, maybe I would think about bucking Pitt at home. Can't see Rivers having a day like he did last week vs Arizona. Steelers will be in foul mood after losing at Denver. It's a short number, and Steelers dominate at Heinz. 4* Money Maker PITT STEELERS |

Taking SEATTLE. Will lay this. Seattle hurt me last week as we had Caroline. Our only loser on a 7-1 Sunday of NFL action. This SF team has hit hard times. The offense is terrible. Can't see them putting up 14 here vs the Seahawks who look they are ready for a playoff push. Seattle 10-2-1 ATS last 13 in the series. Mullins or Beathard vs Wilson. I was never a huge Wilson fan. But the guy is great. Seattle going away 30-13. 5* Best Bet SEATTLE SEAHAWKS |

Browns +6 v. Texans | | 13-29 |
Loss | -110 | 92 h 0 m | Show |
Taking the BROWNS. We will find out just how good the Texans are eventually. They are really getting all kinds of gifts in this win streak. OT Coaching blunders by Colts and Dallas. Injury to QBs during games. Games with backup QBs starting. Pick 6 INTs with a minute left in game. Now they are on a short week off that Monday nighter against Titans - and have big division game on deck vs Colts. Texans 4-11 ATS last 15 and 1-5 ATS last 6 at home. Browns come into town showing zero quit and battling every game. 4* Money Maker CLEVELAND BROWNS |

Taking OHIO STATE. So I am no fan of tOSU - But I will lay it and would lay 20 here. Fast track in the dome and I don't think Northwestern is keeping up. I know that Buckeyes have had some up and down performances. But not in Championship Games. They come to play, and Meyer won't be ashamed to run it up tonight. Last game on the card, so he will know how all the Sooners and Georgia did. I think Alabama, Clemson are locked in no matter the outcome of their games, plus ND. Who saw last week's butt-kicking of Michigan coming? Much like that 59-0 drubbing of Wisconsin in 2014 Championship Game. Not sure how Wildcats going to slow this machine done. No grass to help the cause. Ohio State has dropped 50+ 4 times and 49 on 2 more occasions. 10* Money Bomb OHIO STATE |

Taking ALABAMA today. My NJ Fan Dual app had this at 11 and I grabbed it.They sometimes have lines a couple points off, so that is nothing new. I feel just as fine laying this. We had the Tide last week. Eventually. This train breaks loose and it's a 20pt win. This isn't last year. Yes, Bulldogs with revenge for the Championship OT loss last year. A full season, and a full game Tua is a tough match-up. I hate comparing how they do in SEC play. But, Alabama 29-0 at LSU and Georgia losses 36-16 at LSU. I'm going to lay it. 5* Best Bet ALABAMA |

Memphis v. Central Florida -3 | | 41-56 |
Win | 100 | 66 h 1 m | Show |
Taking UCF. Bucking the trend of everyone fading these guys based on a back-up QB taking the reigns. At Memphis earlier this year, the line was 5.5, it opened in some places at 7 - and that tells me that with Milton this would have been UCF laying 10 or 11 points. Last 2 games a double OT game and a 1pt win. I am sure something special is in store for this afternoon. Something like back QB Darriel Mack leads UCF to back to back undefeated season with 4 TDs in win 20pt win over Memphis. Knights rally for their fallen leader. 4* Money Maker UCF |

Texas v. Oklahoma -8 | Top | 27-39 |
Win | 100 | 63 h 16 m | Show |
Taking OKLAHOMA. Forget about Tom Herman dog trends. Big revenge spot for the Sooners. Oklahoma has a bad defense- Well, after spotting Texas 3 turnovers and a 45-24 lead, Oklahoma only reeled off a 21-3 4th quarter. Did Texas just sit on their heels? Or did the Sooners play some defense? 56 points allowed last week. But hey, 2 defensive TDs. I don't think Ehlinger can keep Texas in this thing. If you are telling me you know that Boomer Sooner is turning the ball over 3 times and Longhorns hold onto the ball and turn those into 21 points - then I can see taking Texas here. No way Texas slows these guys down. 7 times scoring more than 50. 10 times scoring more than 45. High Noon Assault in Jerry's World. 5* Best Bet OKLAHOMA SOONERS |

Taking ST JOHNS here. I think Mullin finally has a decent crew here. I like these guys. I really don't remember Mullin/ Walter Berry teams. But I know I loved the Malik Sealy, Boo Harvey bunch and followed them since. Talent is there for them to get to the NCAAs. - 4* Money Maker ST JOHNS As I said the other day. CBB is very frustrating right now.(48-51) - With 125 games in College today, I had a pretty big ticket. I left these smaller schools off simply because of 1 - Several people have messaged me saying they can't get action on them. And 2 - When we are dropping close games, I know it is tough for you to back teams like this. - These guys nearly made the cut. Northern Alabama +10.5 - Bowling Green +1 - Boston U +1.5 - FAU -3 - Cal Baptist NL yet, I'm saying 3.5 or 4. |

As, the don't muster offense like some of those squads. Defense is solid. We will side with the Bulls to get it done. It will be a grind, they should pull away for a 10+ point win. 4* Money Maker BUFFALO BULLS |

Win | 100 | 4 h 42 m | Show |
Taking MARIST. -- First up. I know our CBB has been up and down so far. And that is very disappointing for me as I normally come out very strong in November hoops. Last November, 57-43 good for 57% - This year, 47-50. And seems like every game, win or lose, is decided by a bucket or 2. Like yesterday UCF. That could be a win, lose or push. Belmont misses by a bucket. I'm frustrated that I haven't delivered like I should be on the hardwood. We'll turn this around. Last year, we were the #1 Total Money Capper in College Basketball. We know what we are doing, won't panic, and continue to find winners to grind out our daily bankroll. We will back Marist here. Numbers have the Red Foxes winning this one. 4* Money Maker MARIST |

Never over .500 in 18 years in Big West play. A new HC and an overhauled roster. We'll take the small school in-state rival? I mean, they have to be rivals right? WAC vs Big West for Thursday night! 4* Money Maker CAL BAPTIST |

Taking DALLAS here. Both teams last seen winning on Thanksgiving. We have made money on the Saints all season except when we had Tampa in Week 1 and then Cincy 3 weeks ago. If NO is going to get clipped, it's here or in 2 weeks at Carolina. The first of 3 road games for the Saints. This is a tough game. Dallas finally putting some offense together. They do have a decent defense, though it doesn't really get turnovers. Take the home dog tonight. Won't be shocked if they steal an outright win here. 4* Money Maker DALLAS COWBOYS |

Always with a chip on their shoulder, you know you will get their 'A' game. These guys will win the Sun Belt and are led by conference POY. They just knocked off Georgia, and have beaten the Bonnies. I would put Tulane below those 2 programs right now. Tulane will most likely be pulling up the rear of the AAC. 5* Best Bet GEORGIA STATE |

Ducks v. Lightning -1.5 | | 3-1 |
Loss | -100 | 8 h 28 m | Show |
Taking TAMPA and going PUCK LINE. I'm not one of those guys who tell you to take -180, -220, -260 favorites. Not Money Line faves in MLB. Not in NHL. And sure as heck not in College Football or NFL. If that is what you like to do, then why are you on sites looking for betting help and advice. That isn't helping. I think that is a fraud. So we grab Tampa at home as the Ducks enter Game 2 of their east coach road trip. 4* PL Money TAMPA BAY |

Virginia Tech -3 v. Penn State | | 62-63 |
Loss | -105 | 8 h 57 m | Show |
Taking VIRGINIA TECH. Ok. Might be a bit of square play here. But I can't see VT losing this one. I have Penn State near the bottom of the Big 10. VT is a tough team. I hate laying such a short number with the 'ranked' team. I'm going to stick to my numbers and back the small road fave. 4* Money Maker VIRGINIA TECH |

Magic v. Warriors -8 | | 110-116 |
Loss | -110 | 13 h 52 m | Show |
Taking the WARRIORS. Normally I like to shy away from these guys. But we are getting some value here. So Magic opened their road trip getting ambushed in Denver losing by 25 - then yesterday, a nice win over the Lakers and LeBron. Maybe they put up a fight for a half. Something tells me we get a really focused Warriors team finishing up a home stand. 4* Money Maker GS WARRIORS |

Wofford +9 v. South Carolina | | 81-61 |
Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show |
Taking WOFFORD. Will grab the in-state rival in this spot. These guys should be the 1 or #2 team in the SoCon. I get it isn't SEC hoops. But South Carolina isn't that much better in ratings. Experienced bunch from the Terriers. They only beat Georgia Tech and North Carolina on the road last year. A team that was inexperienced at the time went on to win 21 games. Wofford has 2 losses this year, both by 11 to Oklahoma and NC. They will be in this one. 4* Money Maker WOFFORD |
11-25-18 |
Packers v. Vikings -3 | | 17-24 |
Win | 100 | 26 h 22 m | Show |
Taking the VIKINGS. I get how everyone will run to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. Last we saw these guys they were busy blowing a double digit lead on the road to Seattle. Always tough game after playing up there. GB now a miserable 0-5 this year on the road and 7 straight! 7 straight losses and a 1-5-1 ATS run for the Packers when they aren't at home. Minny on a 17-4-1 ATS as a home fave. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA VIKINGS |
11-25-18 |
Cardinals v. Chargers -13 | | 10-45 |
Win | 100 | 22 h 16 m | Show |
Taking the CHARGERS. Lost with both of thees guys last week. Will fade the road team today. I know that overall, Arizona has a pretty decent defense for themselves. And laying basically 2 TDs is a tough cover. But Chargers aren't too shaby themselves. Rosen has more INTs than TDs this year. he will cough it up. LAC needs to shut down the Cards RB. I don't see Arizona getting more than 13 points. Unless we have Rivers and LAC with 4 TOs on the wrong side of the 50, this games should be 30-10. A nice steady pace of Gordon on the ground and Rivers in the air should make this a nice afternoon win. 4* Money Maker LA CHARGERS |

Jaguars v. Bills +3 | | 21-24 |
Win | 100 | 20 h 52 m | Show |
Taking the BILLS. Think it is safe to say the party is over for the Jags. What a brutal way to go down last week to the Steelers. Now you are expecting them to get off the deck to win on the road, in Buffalo? I get the Bills are a bad team. But, we have revenge from the playoffs last year. Still some hold-over from that team. And, there has been plenty of play-off payback this season already. So again.. Both teams 3-7. Jags officially out of the playoffs. Up 16-0 and blowing it vs Steelers. On the heels of coming up short vs Indy. 6 straight losses. Bills dropped 41 on the Jets and have to be feeling good about things coming out of their bye week. 4* Money Maker BUFFALO BILLS |

Raiders v. Ravens -10.5 | Top | 17-34 |
Win | 100 | 20 h 47 m | Show |
Taking BALTIMORE. Looking to really move a bit here on the Ravens. Last week I took it right on the chin backing Arizona. What the heck are the Raiders doing winning games when they need that top draft pick? Oh. Carr says screw the draft, he wants to win. Well why I won't be shocked one bit when he is on the bench at halftime in say, a 16-3 game. He isn't going to be in Vegas. Gruden will be. Now from Arizona out the east coast vs a desperate Ravens squad. A bunch of 5-5 teams in the AFC. Baltimore needs to notch a win. Raiders had lost 5 straight games by at least 14 points before pulling out the W last week. I see this in the 27-13 range. 5* Best Bet BALTIMORE RAVENS |
11-25-18 |
Giants +5.5 v. Eagles | | 22-25 |
Win | 100 | 20 h 40 m | Show |
Taking the GIANTS. I never thought that NYG was as bad as the record. They had a heck of schedule out of the gate. I should have grabbed the 6 earlier in the week, but, I think we have the shot at the outright win today. Eagles don't look good. The offense isn't the same missing last years OC. The defense has been hit with injuries. GMen do have a couple play-makers that can cause some trouble for this Eagles crew. As much as people make fun of the Giants and Cowboys not scoring - Philly has scored more than 24 points just once this season! NYG has gotten 27 or more on 4 occasions including their last 2. 4* Money Maker NY GIANTS |
11-25-18 |
Patriots -10 v. Jets | Top | 27-13 |
Win | 100 | 19 h 26 m | Show |
Taking the PATRIOTS. Both teams in off bye weeks. Both in off losses. Pats on the road vs Titans as we backed Tennessee and their NE connections to a nice dog outright. Jets crushed at home by Bills. HC match-up is a complete mismatch. And one of them is having a rough go of things lately. NE has covered 3 of 4 off bye weeks and 13 of 17 off SU losses. Laying double digits to a division foe who plays you tough is a tricky spot. But as we toss in a rookie QB and the total state of Jets, a clearer picture comes into focus. At 7-3 NE has its work cut out for them if they want to be the 1 seed. It is a crowded room as Pitt 7-2-1, Houston 7-3, Chargers 7-3 are all looking at the 9-2 Chiefs. I'm thinking NE 27-13 with a couple of INTs by whoever is under center for NYJ. 8* Sure Shot NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS |
11-25-18 |
Seahawks v. Panthers -3 | Top | 30-27 |
Loss | -107 | 19 h 19 m | Show |
Taking CAROLINA as our Top 10* today. Last we saw Seattle, they were beating the Packers for all the world to see. Extra rest helps the cross-country trip. But still a 10am body clock game. Panthers last see costing us bankroll in a game vs Detroit. Look. I have had Seattle as a rebuilding club all year. That isn't changing. Carolina at home is a big step up from win-less on the road Green Bay. Cam is usually on the money in his home games. I see this as a 10 point win for us. 10* Money Bomb CAROLINA PANTHERS |

Pelicans -2 v. Wizards | | 114-124 |

Taking the PELICANS. Both teams in a back to back. But shorter travel and playing a worse team. I'll grab the better team tonight. 4* Money Maker NEW ORLEANS PELICANS |

Notre Dame -10.5 v. USC | Top | 24-17 |
Loss | -107 | 45 h 53 m | Show |
Taking NOTRE DAME. I think ND is the real deal. We have see the Irish drop 40+ the last 3 meetings. Were any of those teams better than 5-6 SC team? I know you can rally around the, 'well it's their Super Bowl or whatever' I just can't get behind the Trojans in anyway tonight. ND, like other playoff teams, know they need to pass the eye test. And that is putting up points. They need to pull a 48-17 win on the road, in the books tonight. 8* Sure Shot NOTRE DAME |

Hofstra +4.5 v. VCU | | 67-69 |

Charlotte v. Florida Atlantic -17.5 | | 27-24 |

Santa Clara v. San Jose State -2 | | 71-63 |
Loss | -110 | 8 h 41 m | Show |
Taking SAN JOSE STATE. This Clara team is pretty bad right now. They aren't scoring much. And they have given up 80+ in 3 of 4 games. So the defense sure isn't helping. Now. Spartans aren't a basketball powerhouse. Their lone win was over someone called Life Pacific. But, always a but people! -- They did go 0-3 in their tournament. lost by 2 to CMU, lost by 1 to Bakersfield, and by 8 to Weber. These guys are competitive. After some close calls, they get it done here at home. 4* Money Maker SAN JOSE STATE |

Louisiana Tech v. NC-Greensboro -3 | | 73-80 |

Taking GREENSBORO. You know this our team. Cashed with them a couple times already. Both of these guys in my Mid-Major Top 25 rankings. I just have NCG rated a bit higher. Should be able to cover this number. But both of these teams should be on your list of teams to be backing this season. 4* Money Maker NC GREENSBORO |

Auburn v. Alabama -24 | | 21-52 |
Win | 100 | 40 h 16 m | Show |
Taking ALABAMA. How does anyone get in front of this out of control freight train. So they played The Citadel to a 1st half tie last week. Bama needs to play with chips on their shoulders. Where is there motivation? Revenge from last years 26-14 loss should get the gears churning a bit. Not sold at all on Auburn. The one team remotely close to the Tide they have played - Georgia.. A 27-10 road loss. 37-6 sounds about right. 4* Money Maker ALABAMA |
11-24-18 |
SMU -2.5 v. Tulsa | Top | 24-27 |
Loss | -114 | 40 h 9 m | Show |
Taking SMU. Had these guys last game vs Memphis. Not only did they fail to cover, they did it a painful fashion with a missed 2pt conversion. Ouch. Look- SMU needs this W for their bowl birth. No let-down off that bad loss in site. Tulsa miserable this year. When they aren't turning the ball over, they are thinking about how to turn it off 3 possessions from now. Tulsa is 2-9 for a reason. They're bad. 10* Money Bomb SMU |
11-24-18 |
Western Kentucky -3.5 v. Indiana State | | 54-63 |
Loss | -110 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
Taking WESTERN KENTUCKY. Indiana State a two man team. Not shocking, since those 2 guys are their only returning contributors from last years team. I have WKU as one of the Top 15 mid majors in the country. They should take care of this bunch. These guys are the top dogs in CUSA. They opened losing at Washington. Beat Tenn-Martin, Valpo and West Virginia. Dropped the next game to UCF in a let-down spot. Should win this one by 10. 4* Money Maker WESTERN KENTUCKY |

Michigan v. Ohio State +5 | | 39-62 |
Win | 100 | 37 h 59 m | Show |
Taking OHIO STATE. Hey,, Laying 3.5 and maybe buying down to 3 with Michigan is one thing. Laying 5 to Urban Meyer and his insane dog numbers - totally different breed of animal. Ohio State hasn't been a home dog since 2011! 40-3 SU here. 13-1 SU in this series. In with 6 straight wins, and 13 in 14 games, Buckeyes dog to the Wolverines. The send out Game of the Year line on this was OSU -9. Now they are +5. I know OSU doesn't have a defense anything close to Michigan. Senior day in Columbus with the winner heading to the Big 10 Championship Game. Give me the home pups. 4* Money Maker OHIO STATE |

DePaul +5.5 v. Notre Dame | | 70-95 |
Loss | -105 | 2 h 9 m | Show |
Taking DEPAUL. I really don't think these teams are that far apart. Won't be shocked if this line goes up a bit since people love 'big names" and in CBB or CFB, Notre Dame is one of those names. Strus for DePaul the best guy on the floor. 4* Money Maker DEPAUL |

Jazz v. Lakers -2.5 | | 83-90 |

NC-Greensboro -6 v. Delaware | | 84-65 |
Win | 100 | 9 h 58 m | Show |

Central Florida -14 v. South Florida | | 38-10 |
Win | 100 | 18 h 42 m | Show |
Taking CENTRAL FLORIDA. Had these guys last week, will go back to the well again. As i said then. No team with more to prove. If they have any shot at the Playoffs they need 20-30 point win here. Win, win and win some more. This will be one of their 38-17 type games. 4* Money Maker UCF |
11-23-18 |
Virginia -4.5 v. Virginia Tech | | 31-34 |
Loss | -105 | 17 h 8 m | Show |
Taking VIRGINIA. No time like the present to end a 14 game losing streak to your in-state rivals. VT suffering through a bad year. I know as home pups, you would think they are up and ready to play their rivals. I just can't get behind the Hokies. Even off a loss, VA has a lot working in its favor. Big edge on defense. A QB completing over 70% of his passes last 3 games. 4* Money Maker VIRGINIA |

Seton Hall v. Grand Canyon +5.5 | | 82-75 |

Falcons v. Saints -13 | Top | 17-31 |
Win | 100 | 47 h 36 m | Show |
Taking the SAINTS, and will look for a 20+ point win. Look. Had these guys last week. And they rolled. And it looked like they went easy on Philly. Falcons in off loss to Dallas. We had the Cowboys and the points (lost the Over though). This is it for Atlanta. For you to be on the Falcons you have to be thinking they win out. They need to win their final 6 games for 10 wins and a playoff spot. They still have games at GB, Carolina and TB. And before you laugh at Tampa, just look at the points they put up. Plus games at home vs Baltimore and Arizona. And to tell you the truth, that isn't really weighing all that much on my play here. Rams won on Monday night. And for NO to hold that tie-breaker edge and home field through playoffs, they need to win. And this team isn't a win by a point team. Brees is on another level right now. He should carve up this defense like we will be carving up our Turkeys and Hams 3 hours prior to this kick-off. New Orleans again will toy with dropping a 50 spot. The sites don't have first half lines - But I can see NO jumping out to a fast lead by half-time if you want to sprinkle something on that. At this points, Saints really can just name their score vs teams. I think they want this 40pt streak to continue. The spots where I think NO is ripe for being picked off (though I was wrong at Cincy) is possibly Dallas next week or, playing their 3rd straight game at Carolina in 3 weeks. 5* Best Bet NEW ORLEANS SAINTS |
11-22-18 |
Redskins v. Cowboys -6.5 | | 23-31 |
Win | 100 | 7 h 3 m | Show |
Taking DALLAS - I know that Dallas is terrible at home ATS wise 0-7 on Thanksgiving. I know that Thanksgiving home faves are great ATS wise 15-3 when laying 7 or more. I don't think there is much drop off at the QB position for Washington. I think the bigger issue is their OL play. Dallas defense is tough. Not great at turning teams over, but the defense is very sound. Last game, Jason Garrett clapped his way to lose. That's what this clown does. Crush peoples hopes and dreams when you back them. In this spot, like last week. I swallow hard and pray to the football Gods that in a league that gave us a 100pt game on Monday night, this guy doesn't continue to bring back 3 yards and a cloud of dust football. Zeke is the key. The kid does it all out of the backfield. He then opens things up for Dak. Back to back upset road wins has Cowboys back in the NFC East hunt - Winner here takes first place as even splitting, Dallas 3-1 in division, Redskins 2-1. Huge game for Cowboys. 4* Money Maker DALLAS COWBOYS |

Taking FULLERTON. Like both of these schools and conferences. This isn't that bad of a spot for CSN. They were just in a tourney down in South Carolina. So they have been on the east coast for a bit.

Taking GEORGIA STATE. Will grab the Sun Belt over the SEC. I have said I am not high on Georgia and they could be the worse team in conference. This line shows that. GST will win the Sun Belt. They have the best player in conference. They have size, hit 3s, can play some D. Give me the experienced small school to prove themselves vs in-state brother. 4* Money Maker GEORGIA STATE |

South Dakota State -6.5 v. Colorado State | | 78-65 |

Taking SOUTH DAKOTA STATE. Lost backing these guys the other day. But will jump on them in this spot. With these early tourneys, we are on or off a lot of the same teams.

Win | 100 | 7 h 14 m | Show |
Taking TOLEDO. Will grab the Rockets as a little dog here. This is a pretty even game, but even on the neutral I rate Toledo as the fave. So them getting points is an auto play. ULL loses most of it's big stars from last year. So a bit of a rebuild. I think the Rockets can win the MAC this year. 4* Money Maker TOLEDO |

First up.. What a brutal day of CBB yesterday. Obviously our worse day out of the gate this season. Not the start to a new week I looking for. 7-16 the last 2 day. Uh. Sick to my stomach. Look - I don't like losing. Taking an L is part of the job. But We have a lot of new weekly + monthly people who join up on weekends. And that is a bad taste to have in your mouth for a Friday to Monday run of plays. I hope that my long term returns for the last 30-60-90 days show everyone that a bad couple is just that. A bad couple days - It's Thanksgiving week. We aren't going to start putting plays on tilt cause a bad couple days. Our numbers are strong and we will bounce back. No matter what site you are getting my picks on - We are still on the leader-boards in NFL, College Football, NBA, NHL and just fell off CBB because of a terrible day. I was #1 or 2 in NFL Money Last year. #1, 2 or 3 in CBB Money last year. As I say on Free Pick Video. Win or lose, ALWAYS the truth. And, when the month ends, we will have a winning month. When NFL ends, I am looking to be #1 Money Leader again. We have bowls next month. Playoffs ahead. Let's get back to grinding out our winners, and build some bankroll. Taking BRADLEY. Might be able to get a bit of better line as I think everyone will come down on SMU. And I think SMU has some talent and should be right there in the AAC Title hunt. Braves are middle tier of MVC. But just think they are deeper and play a bit better defense. 4* Money Maker BRADLEY |
