South Carolina at UAB 7:00 ET Blazers (-) over Gamecocks- Here are a pair of schools that are moving in opposite directions as the once proud Gamecocks have fallen to the point where a Conference USA team is a double-digit favorite over an SEC team. When you look at the stats you can see why the price is what it is. South Carolina is one of the more offensively challenged team in the NCAA ranked No. 331 averaging just 64.2 PPG and their defense is ranked at 211 PPG. The Blazers are one of the top scoring team’s in the nation at No. 6 averaging 87.9 PPG. shooting 49.1% from the floor. Take ALABAMA-BIRMINGHAM! | |||||||

Arizona State at Creighton 9:00 ET Sun Devils (+) over Blue Jays- No. 21 Creighton won’t be ranked in the Top-25 mush longer as they have lost four straight games and now face a red hot Arizona State squad that has won seven in-a-row. The Sun Devils won 58-57 at Creighton last season and look to do it again with a defense that only allows 59.8 PPG. Devils are 6-0 ATS when playing a team with a winning record. Take ARIZONA STATE! | |||||||

Wisconsin at Iowa 6:30 ET Badgers (+) over Hawkeyes- Iowa was a huge winner for us last time out as they beat down rival Iowa State 75-56 on Thursday as the won without Kris Murray who leads the team in scoring (19.4) and rebounds 10.1. This time around it will be a little tougher without him as the Badgers (7-2, 1-0) look to win their second Big Ten contest. This game will pit the No. 22 offense of Iowa against the no. 24 defense of Wisconsin. The Badgers are 5-1 ATS on the road and the road team is 9-4-2 ATS in the last 15 meetings. Take WISCONSIN! | |||||||

Indiana at Rutgers 4:00 ET Scarlet Knights (+) over Hoosiers- Oh boy! Ain’t we got fun...Indiana pops into the Top-10 for the first time in over five years after defeating an over-ratted North Carolina clubs that has now dropped three in-a-row. This is a perfect spot to ambush the 7-0 Hoosiers who are playing their first true road game and they are 8-20-2 ATS in their last 30 road games after three straight at home. And get this the Scarlet Knights are 10-4-1 ATS in their last 15 home games against teams with winning records, add that the home team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take RUTGERS! | |||||||
12-02-22 | Gonzaga v. Baylor +2.5 | Top | 63-64 | Win | 100 | 9 h 1 m | Show |
Baylor at Gonzaga 8:00 ET Bears (+) over Bulldogs- These two teams played for the National Championship in 2021 and it wasn’t pretty for the Zags as the 4.5-point underdog Bears led from start to finish as they highest scoring team in the nation was stifled. This time around Gonzaga is playing behind a closed window as it is Baylor that scores 88.1 PPG ranking No.6 while on defense the Bulldogs have dropped to No. 331 allowing 76.7 PPG. Bears are off a beat down by Marquette 96-70 and they are 6-1 ATS after a loss of 20-points or more. Gonzaga is 1-8-1 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games. The underdogs is 5-0 ATS in this series.

11-29-22 | Virginia -3.5 v. Michigan | Top | 70-68 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
Virginia at Michigan 9:30 ET Cavaliers (-) over Wolverines- I saw No. 3 Virginia defeat Baylor and Illinois in Las Vegas and although they were crowned tourney champs I can say that I was all that impressed. Although, I feel that they will win games because of their experience and depth. As Claude Reins would say ‘I am shocked...’ yep, I am shocked at how little respect the Wolverines are receiving from the book-makers as I expect them to be ranked which they are not and I don’t expect them to be such an underdog at home Now, the decision is do I believe my lying eyes or a lying bookmaker. Maybe, they know something a Michigan is 1-5 ATS in their last six home games and they are 2-9 ATS after a SU win. Cavaliers 7-2 ATS in last nine against winning teams above .600. Looks too easy to take the Wolves...take VIRGINIA! | |||||||
11-29-22 | Missouri v. Wichita State +2.5 | Top | 88-84 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 30 m | Show |
Missouri vs Wichita State 8:00 ET Shockers (+) over Tigers- Missouri opened the season with seven straight wins and that is always impressive even if they defeated the likes of SIU Edwardsville, Southern Indiana, Lindenwood, Mississippi Valley State, Coastal Carolina and of course Houston Christian. Now, not that seven sub-division schools isn’t bad enough they played them all at home. Now, this isn’t a true road game as it is a neutral site but they are playing a real basketball team. Take WICHITA STATE! | |||||||
11-27-22 | North Carolina v. Alabama -115 | Top | 101-103 | Win | 100 | 4 h 51 m | Show |
North Carolina vs Alabama 3:30 ET Crimson Tide over Tar Heels- Okay here we go again. The Odds-makers versus the Pollsters. The Poll people have North Carolina ranked on top at 1 and to date I have not been impressed. Bama who does impress me is ranked No. 18 by the Pollsters and yet the odds-makers opened the Tide a small favorite on a neutral site. I could go through a lot of stuff but it is simply a matter of those who really are in the know and those that think they are. Take ALABAMA! | |||||||
11-25-22 | Iowa v. Clemson +8.5 | Top | 74-71 | Win | 100 | 8 h 60 m | Show |
Iowa vs Clemson 7:00 ET Hawkeyes over Tigers- As I have said before because power schools schedule so many powder puffs it is difficult to evaluate just how good they may actually be. Clemson has had one game among their five against a Division I school and they lost to South Carolina. Iowa has covered all four games playing one legit opponent defeating Seton Hall by 17 points in the Pirates Cove. Hawkeyes are 17-8-2 ATS at neutral sites while the Tigers are 5-1 ATS at neutral sites they are 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall. One thing to respect is that Clemson has 20 years of playing experience among their starters. Take CLEMSON! | |||||||
11-24-22 | Alabama -3.5 v. Michigan State | Top | 81-70 | Win | 100 | 21 h 44 m | Show |
Alabama vs Michigan State 10:30 ET Crimson Tide (-) over Spartans- This one gets me with Michigan State being the higher ranked team at No. 12 and the Crimson Tide being the favorite ranked No. 18 and it is not a tiny number. The bookmaker is telling us that Alabama is the better team and although the media believes otherwise and I trust the bookies (Not really) to have better knowledge. What concerns me is the schedule that these two squads have undertaken as the Spartans have dealt with Kentucky, Gonzaga and Villanova while the Tide were dealing with the likes of Longwood, Liberty, South Alabama and Jacksonville State who combined are all under .500. Comparing stats it is easy to see why Books have chosen this price as the Tide are better at both ends of the court, be it against inferior opposition but regardless they rank 26th on offense and MSU is 177th and on defense No. 31 for Bama and 140 for State. P.S.- Tide lead the nation in rebounding. Take ALABAMA! | |||||||
11-24-22 | Iowa State +2.5 v. Villanova | Top | 81-79 | Win | 100 | 14 h 45 m | Show |
Iowa State vs. Villanova 3:30 ET Cyclones (+) over Wildcats- Oh, I like what is coming out of Ames as T.J. Otzelberger has taken the air out of the ball and returned to fundamentals starting with defense. Iowa State holds their opponents to an absurd 45.0 PPG while holding opponents to 32.8% shooting from the floor. Add that Villanova who is just not the same since Jay Wright took a powder and it will show here as they are ranked No. 260 on offense scoring just 69 PPG and are ranked No. 346 (Yep) in rebounding. Cyclones 6-2 ATS last eight neutral site games and Cats are 1-4 ATS in last five. Take IOWA STATE! | |||||||
11-20-22 | Baylor v. UCLA +2.5 | Top | 80-75 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 31 m | Show |
UCLA vs. Baylor 5:30 ET Bruins (+) over Bears- One of these wild critters will leave Las Vegas with two consecutive losses and a damper on the start of their season. UCLA held a 41-28 lead in the second half before the Illini when on a shooting spree and outscored the baby bears 51-29. The Bears allowed Virginia to shoot 56% and trailed by 23-points in the second half and were never really in it. Bruins are 6-1 ATS after a SU loss and Naylor is 1-5 ATS against teams with winning records. Take UCLA! | |||||||
11-18-22 | UCLA v. Illinois +3.5 | Top | 70-79 | Win | 100 | 7 h 9 m | Show |
Illinois vs UCLA 9:30 ET Illini (+) over Bruins- Both clubs are 3-0 and will be playing a real opponent for the first time this season. These clubs have not met since 1997 and the Bruins hold a 6-3 series edge but that stirs nothing between these two today. This game is being played in Las Vegas an there should be a slight lean in the crowd for the Bruins but it hasn’t helped in the past. Take ILLINOIS! | |||||||

North Carolina vs Kansas 9:00 ET Tar Heels (+) over Jayhawks- The regular season college basketball season had about three weeks remaining when my thoughts about North Carolina were that Hubert Davis just wasn't cutting it and I expected the Tar Heels be to an also ran the rest of the season. But, not so fast as this team has matured right before our eyes and is playing for the NCAA title by winning 11 of their last 12. Kansas just totally dominated a short-handed Villanova squad that had over-achieved all season and are 7-2 ATS in their last nine at neutral sites. But, the Tar Heels are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 against teams with winning records and get the money here. Take NORTH CAROLINA! | |||||||
04-02-22 | Villanova +4.5 v. Kansas | Top | 65-81 | Loss | -110 | 29 h 4 m | Show |
Villanova vs Kansas 6:09 ET Wildcats (+) over Jayhawks- The 'thing' about this year's NCAA Tournament is that most felt that it was wide open this season as there was no dominating favorite and yet it was more of the 'old guard' making to the Final-4 in New Orleans as the traditional basketball powers prevailed. Kansas, North Carolina, Duke and two-time winner in the last five years Villanova. The Wildcats will be without their standout guard Justin Moore who racked up the most playing time among the Wildcat starters. That could be a factor but the oddsmaker has kept the price low as Villanova is 21-6 ATS in their last 27 NCAA Tournament games and Kansas is 2-5 ATS in their last seven Tournament games and are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings against the Wildcats. Take VILLANOVA! | |||||||

Washington State vs Texas A&M 9:00 ET Cougars (+) over Aggies- Washington State got here the hard way winning a pair of games on the road at SMU and BYU winning by 12 and 19 points respectively and seems to have caught a spark going 7-1 ATS in their last eight games overall. Texas A&M has had the best of it as a No. 1 seed in the NIT they sat at home and defeated Alcorn State, Oregon and Wake Forest covering the last two and being strong favorites in each game. The Aggies have been impressive ATS going 9-2 in their last 11games overall and are 5-2 in last seven at neutral sites. Although the Cougars are 0-5 ATS in their last five games at neutral sites they are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games as neutral site underdogs. Take WASHINGTON STATE! | |||||||
03-27-22 | Miami-FL v. Kansas -5.5 | Top | 50-76 | Win | 100 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
Miami vs Kansas 2:20 ET Jayhawks (-) over Hurricanes- So, Kansas the only Number 1 seed remaining has the task of defeating a well coached 10th seed in the Miami Hurricanes who are 26-10 on the season. The Canes have been under valued all year as their 21-14 ATS record might attest. In Friday's win over Providence the Jayhawks became the winningest program in college basketball history and they are now stopping there. It's a tribute to Miami's coach Larranaga who has brought a team that is ranked No's 330th, 229th and 288th in the three most important defensive categories. Jayhawks can cease the moment and they will as they Final-Four awaits. Take KANSAS! | |||||||

Houston vs Villanova 6:09 ET Wildcats (+) over Cougars- With two National Championships to their credit in 2016 and 2018 this will be the third time in the past six years that Villanova has made it to the Elite Eight. Houston disposed of Arizona by holding the Wildcats to 25-points below their scoring average, but, these Wildcats present a different problem. They are now 20-6 ATS in their last 26 NCAA tourney games and have the discipline that it takes to win here. Take VILLANOVA! | |||||||

Iowa State vs Miami-Fl 9:40 ET Cyclones (+) over Hurricanes- Oh boy, this is a tough one as both clubs won ugly for 'us' already in the first two rounds. Iowa State has won a pair fo Tournament games where as last season the won just two game the entire season. The road for the cyclones in the tourney had them defeating LSU and Wisconsin with a couple of stellar defensive performances holding those squads at 54 and 49 points respectively. Miami is well coached and has committed just seven turnovers in their two wins over USC and Auburn. The Cyclones are 6-1 ATS as neutral site underdogs and the Hurricanes are 5-15-1 ATAS as neutral site favorites and 0-5 ATS as NCAA tournament games as favorites. Take IOWA STATE! | |||||||
03-25-22 | North Carolina v. UCLA -2 | Top | 73-66 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 37 m | Show |
North Carolina vs UCLA 9:40 ET Bruins (-) over Tar Heels- Golly, I hate to do this the way the Tar Heels have been playing but I must admit I didn't expect the Bruins to be favored by more than 1-point. North Carolina has always gotten the best of this series having won the last five and they are 10-3 all-time. The Heels average 78.6ppg and their defense has allowed 72.6 ranking them No. 279 while UCLA play defense and defense travels well at least better than offense and they allow just 64.3ppg. The slower pace can cause any team to get anxious and the the Heels are 7-18-1 ATS as neutral site underdogs and 1-6 ATS in their last seven NCAA Tournament games when underdogs. Bruins are 8-3 as favorites and 9-4 ATS min their last 13 neutral site games. Take UCLA! | |||||||

Houston vs Arizona 9:40 ET Cougars (+) over Wildcats- Houston is the best 5th seed that I can ever remember seeing play and the oddsmaker seems to agree with me. Arizona is the No. 1 seed in the South and at 33-3 and is in a virtual pick-em situation against the Cougars (31-5) and that show respect for the Five seed. The Cougars feel that the committee slighted them with the seeding and have won 11 of 12 and is in the Sweet-16 for the third straight years while the Wildcats are here for the first time in six years. Cougs 12-3 ATS in the last 15 as underdogs. Take HOUSTON! | |||||||

Texas Tech vs Duke 9:40 ET Red Raiders (+) over Blue Devils- Oh my, Coach K has experienced many tribulations in his storied career and his final note will be the heart-breaking loss to the Red Raiders in his last game. Sorry Blue Devils fans, but the line is a 'give-away' as these two Blue and Red don't mix. Duke's is No. 8 scoring offense at 80.4ppg and Texas Tech defense surrenders only 60.7ppg and in these tournament games defense rules. The Red Raiders are at their best against the best as they are 14-3 ATS against teams with winning records better than 60%. As great as Duke has been they are 1-5 ATS in their last six games and 1-7 ATS in their last eight NCAA tourney games and finally they are 1-7 ATS against teams with winning records.

Texas vs Purdue 8:40 ET Longhorns (+) over Boilermakers- Texas is in foreign territory as they posted a round one win for the first time since 2014 as they handled Virginia Tech 81-73 for the victory. Purdue had no problems with Yale and put the Bulldogs down 78-56 as they continue to dominate the boards holding a 9.5 rebounds-per-game advantage over opponents. The Longhorns are getting it done with defense and that travels well as former Texas Tech coach Chris Beard has them playing well as underdogs at neutral sites going 6-2 ATS. Take TEXAS! | |||||||

Michigan vs Tennessee 5:10 ET Wolverines (+) over Volunteers- It has been a roller coaster year for the Wolverines and many never expected them to make it to the 'Big Dance.' Michigan was one of the favorites to reach the Finals and at 17-14 it was a shocker to be selected seeded No. 11 and defeated No. 5 seed Colorado State. After the suspensions and fights the Wolverines have rallied together and had a 28-point turnaround in their win and their confidence couldn't be any higher. Take MICHIGAN! | |||||||

Notre Dame vs Rutgers 8:10 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Scarlet Knights- Despite having the second best ACC regular season record (15-5) Notre Dame wasn't a sure thing to make the tourney and the result is this 'extra' game that must be played.

Texas A&M vs Tennessee 1:00 ET Volunteers (-) over Aggies- Many thought that the Aggies would have had to win the SEC tournament to reach the 'Big Dance' but having won three straight including two victories over Top 25 ranked teams they know that they have already punched their ticket.

Colorado (19-10) comes off beating the No. 2 team in the nation Arizona 79-63 covering the spread by 25.5 points and now travel to Utah who just lost to Arizona 97-77 and ASU last time out. But, here's the rub the 11-18 Utes are FAVORED!

Iowa at Michigan 9:00 ET Hawkeyes (+) over Wolverines- Both clubs are on an upswing as Iowa has won four straight and seven of eight with the loss coming at home against these Wolverines. For Michigan it seems that 'less is more' as they are off another win while Juwan Howard serves out his five-game suspension but are only 4-10 ATS after a SU win. Although I look to play 'on' a team favored over a ranked team in this situation I like the advantages the Hawkeyes have with the 5th ranked offense scoring 83.7ppg while the Wolves rank No. 188 on defense.

Arkansas is off an emotional 75-73 win over No. 6 Kentucky Saturday and may get caught in an emotional down turn here off their victory over the Wildcats. Take L.S.U.! | |||||||

Syracuse at North Carolina 7:00 ET Orange (+) over Tar Heels- Having won their last three games the Tar Heels still have a shot at the ACC regular season title (a surprise to me) and need a win here tonight and again in their final game at Duke. Syracuse who will need a tourney push to qualify for the 'Big Dance' has dropped their last two including a 97-72 drubbing by Duke Saturday. The Boeheim trio are gutty and respond after a defeat and are 7-2 ATS after a SU loss and 11-5 ATS after a double digit loss.

Northwestern at Penn State 7:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Nittany Lions- Although neither of these clubs is in any real contention in the Big Ten there seeding in the Conference tournament extends a bye in the first round. Northwestern can clinch a bye with a win over the Nittany Lions who defeated the Cats at home the first week of January. The dogs is 4-1 ATS in the last four meetings and Penn State is 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games. So, after defeating the Wildcats earlier they are a meager favorite here because they are in trouble. Take NORTHWESTERN! | |||||||

The little bears don't seem to travel all that well as they are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games and 17-39 ATS in their last 56 road games as favorites. Ducks sitting pretty here get the win.

Xavier at Providence 7:00 ET Musketeers (+) over Friars- Providence managed to overcome a 19-point second-half deficit and defeat Butler but it wasn't good enough to cover as they fell to our Money Game winner. So, here they are the over-achieving Friars are the Big East leaders at 12-2 and here is inconsistent Xavier 7-8 in conference playing in what the odds-makers deem to be a virtual pick-em affair.

Baylor at Oklahoma State 9:00 ET Cowboys (+) over Bears- It seems a bit strange to me that No. 7 Baylor who ranked No. 1 before losing to the Cowboys in mid-January are now trailing Kansas by 1.5-games in the Big-12. The Bears have slipped some as they have been playing with 40% of their starters down as both Adam Flager and LJ Cryer are down with foot and knee issues. OSU is 4-1 ATS in their last five games as home underdogs and the dog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take OKLAHOMA STATE! | |||||||

Villanova at Providence 8:00 ET Wildcats (-) over Friars- Does this not seem out of whack as No. 8 Providence (21-2) is a home underdog to No. 10 Villanova (19-6) especially when you consider is that the Friars are 14-0 SU in the Dunkin' Donuts Center. The Friars have won eight straight while the Wildcats are on a 3-game win streak of their own.

The Hoosiers are 7-2 after an ATS loss and the underdogs is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. The Spartans haven't played well as favorites going 1-6 ATS in the last seven in that role and are 1-5 ATS in their last six home games. Take INDIANA! | |||||||

Michigan State routed rival Michigan on Saturday with the bench outscoring the Wolverines 33-6 and their second stringers have outscored opponents 144-43 in their past five games. Last season the Spartans had a losing record in Big Ten play but still managed to get to the Final-4 while the Terrapins shot just 28.6% of its field goal attempts against the Hoosiers in their loss Saturday. By all right MSU should be a much bigger favorite and I believe the Book are telling 'us' that there is an upset brewing. Take MARYLAND! | |||||||

Virginia Tech just dropped a game to Miami where they were outscored 8-0 in the final minutes dropping to 10-10. This line is way low considering the past performances of these two clubs so it will have to be done with defense. The Hokies are once again once of the leaders on defense allowing just 61.6 ppg and they will disrupt the Seminole flow. Take VIRGINIA TECH! | |||||||

Arizona at U.C.L.A. 10:00 ET Bruins (+) over Wildcats- The best of the Pac-12 go at it at Pauley Pavilion where the Bruins will play before at home before a 'live' crowd for the first time since Dec. 1. UCLA opened the season ranked No. 2 starting but were blown out early in the year to Gonzaga in Las Vegas and have been scraping along ever since. Arizona has moved into the No. 2 spot nationally and is averaging 88.7 ppg also ranking No. 2. The Wildcats are a small favorite here and the underdogs is 17-4 ATS in the last 21 meetings and the Bruins are 6-1 ATS as underdogs. Take UCLA! | |||||||

This hasn't been much of a intra-state rivalry of late as the Boilermakers have won the last nine meetings and haven't loss to Indiana since February 2016. But, Purdue is 5-11 ATS as road favorites and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall while the Hoosiers are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games and 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as home underdogs and the home team is 5-2-1 ATS in the last eight meets.

Wake Forest at Georgia Tech 7:00 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Demon Deacons- Hard to believe that Georgia Tech is the defending ACC Champions as they sit dead last at 1-5 in conference and 7-9 overall. The Yellow Jackets were blown out from start to finish on Saturday against North Carolina 88-65 while Wake Forest was a winner at Virginia finishing with a 13-0 run. Tech won both meetings last season and are 5-1 ATS after a loss of 20 or more points. The home team has dominated the series going 20-8 ATS in the last 28 meetings.

Wisconsin has won six straight including wins over ranked teams Ohio State, Iowa and Purdue and now they are less than a long shot away from covering. The line is 'suspect' to me although the home team is 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the Wildcats are 1-5 ATS in their last five home games. Need a miracle...take NORTHWESTERN! | |||||||

Florida State has won 4-of-5 including a non-cover win over rival Miami on Tuesday but are a nightmare on the road where they are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 away from Tallahassee.

Ohio State at Wisconsin 7:00 ET Buckeyes (+) over Badgers- These two rivals met in early December and the Buckeyes prevailed in Columbus 73-55 and that was they last time the Badgers lost. Wisconsin has won five in-a-row since that loss as they lead the nation in fewest turnover committed a game at 8.2. In the first meeting the Buckeyes has a 49-28 rebounding advantage and I'm sure that will change but just by how much. The Buckeyes are 7-2 ATS in their last night as road dogs and 11-5 ATS in their last 16n road games overall. Whisky is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games overall and 6-2 in their last eight games as favorites. Still, take...OHIO STATE! | |||||||

Kentucky at Vanderbilt 7:00 ET Commodores (+) over Wildcats- No. 18 Kentucky has relied on 'home' cooking to boost their record (12-3) as they are 11-0 when in the comforts of the Bluegrass state but they are not the same away from Rupp Arena. The Wildcats don't have to leave the state for tonight's game in Nashville against intra-state rival Vanderbilt. Like many rivalries this is an underdog series as they have gone 15-5-2 ATS in the last 22 meetings and they Commodores are 10-3-4 ATS in their last 17 games as underdogs. The Wildcats are 5-12 ATS against teams with winning records. Take VANDERBILT! | |||||||

Wisconsin at Maryland 7:30 ET Terrapins (+) over Badgers- It came as a surprise to me that the Big Ten's leading scorer plays for Wisconsin as they have always had the defense first mentality. Johnny Davis leads the Badgers with 22.6 points per game and they have won four straight including wins over Purdue and Iowa with their only losses coming when Davis was sidelined with a minor injury. Maryland is hungry for the first conference win (0-3) having lost at Iowa and Illinois the last two times out. Take MARYLAND! | |||||||

Georgetown has been idle nearly three weeks and this is their conference opener as they had four Big East games postponed and had their first week of practice since a week before Christmas. I don't believe that Marquette can repeat the kind of performance they had against the Friars and the Hoyas should be chomping at the bit to get into action. Take GEORGETOWN! | |||||||

North Carolina at Notre Dame 9:00 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Tar Heels- After slow starts to the season both of these clubs have picked up their play as North Carolina is 3-0 in true road games and have won 7-of-8 while the Fighting Irish are 5-0 SU at home. Notre Dame (7-5) has won their last three and 4-of-5 but are 2-7 ATS in their last nine home games ATS. This is just a game the Irish should be primed for although they are 4-15 ATS in their last 19 games overall. Take NOTRE DAME! | |||||||
01-04-22 | Kentucky v. LSU -2 | Top | 60-65 | Win | 100 | 8 h 18 m | Show |
Kentucky at L.S.U. 7:00 ET Tigers over Wildcats- Kentucky off a big Tubby Smith honoring last Friday crushed under-manned High Point 92-48 and it says two things and that is the Wildcats like to beat up on the little guy and Tubby Smith's better days are behind him. Shooting 60% against that talent level is no go great accomplishment as they embark on just their second true road game of the season. In their first road attempt at Notre Dame (We win Megabucks) they lost outright 66-62 as a 5-point favorite and the same should happen here tonight as they are 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine road games. Tigers are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 home games. Take LOUISIANA STATE! | |||||||
01-04-22 | Florida State +1.5 v. Wake Forest | Top | 54-76 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 57 m | Show |
Florida State at Wake Forest 7:00 ET Seminoles (+) over Demon Deacons- It's difficult to gage just how good some of these college teams are right now or how good they should be right now as the virus has slowed down a number of programs. One of which is Florida State as they had 17 days of inaction and at 7-4 SU and it is hard to be impressed. Wake Forest at 11-3 SU should be by all rights a much bigger favorite at home where they are 8-0 SU and 5-2 ATS as favorites. To compound the strangeness of this low 'price' the Seminoles are 0-7 ATS in their last seven road games. I think that this one smells and look for the Deacons to get scalped by the Seminoles! Take FLORIDA STATE! | |||||||
01-02-22 | Michigan State v. Northwestern +2 | Top | 73-67 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
Michigan State at Northwestern 2:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Spartans- No. 10 Michigan State is on a six-game wining streak and has been playing short-handed because of virus protocols but will be a full strength for the first time in two weeks. Northwestern hasn't played since their 90-50 win on December 20 against Ill-Springfield and are 1-0 in Big Ten action. The Wildcats are 6-0 SU at home and the home team is 6-0 ATS in their series. Spartans don't like the Sunday routine going 1-5 ATS in their last six at the weeks end. Take NORTHWESTERN! | |||||||

Central Florida at S.M.U. 2:00 ET Knights (+) over Mustangs- Central Florida has won five-in-a-row including an 85-71 Megabucks win for 'us' last time out over Michigan. The Knights showed great poise in over-coming a 12-point second half deficit out scoring the Wolverines 53-27 over the final 15 minutes in Orlando and on the road UCF is 7-2 ATS in their last nine. SMU has won seven straight with five straight ATS wins but are just 4-10 ATS in their last 14 home games. Take CENTRAL FLORIDA! | |||||||

Tennessee at Alabama 9:00 ET Volunteers (+) over Crimson Tide- SEC opener for a pair of ranked teams as No. 19 Alabama hosts No. 15 Tennessee with both clubs having posted wins over top ranked squads.

The Tide is 1-2 SU last three and 0-4 ATS in their last four and the dog is 4-1 ATS in last five meetings and the Vols 5-1 ATS against teams with winning records. Take TENNESSEE! | |||||||
12-28-21 | Notre Dame v. Pittsburgh +4 | Top | 68-67 | Win | 100 | 12 h 37 m | Show |
Notre Dame at Pittsburgh 8:00 ET Panthers (+) over Fighting Irish- Pitt is bad, how bad well how about losing at home to Monmouth and The Citadel. Notre Dame is not playing with the most talent around but they showed they can play tough by beating Kentucky 66-62 at home. But the road is a different story when talking about the Irish who are 0-2 away from home and 1-6 ATS in their last seven away games. The Panthers are 5-1 ATS in their last six overall and the underdog is 10-3-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings.Take PITTSBURGH! | |||||||
12-22-21 | Arizona v. Tennessee -114 | Top | 73-77 | Win | 100 | 7 h 3 m | Show |
Arizona at Tennessee 7:00 ET Volunteers over Wildcats- No. 6 Arizona is embarking on their longest road trip in 14 years when they face No. 19 Tennessee in Knoxville tonight and their next three games are all against PAC-12 opponents. The Volunteers have had eight days of rest and are 6-0 SU at home and are 4-1 ATS in their last five games. As favorites the Vols are also 4-1 ATS while Arizona is 6-13-1 ATS in their last 20 games as underdogs. The Wildcats are No. 1 nationally on offense averaging 91 PPG while the Vols only allow 57.9 PPG. Take TENNESSEE! | |||||||
12-17-21 | St Bonaventure +3 v. Virginia Tech | Top | 49-86 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 9 m | Show |
St. Bonaventure and Virginia Tech 4:00 ET Bonnies (+) over Hokies- I can't remember the last time I posted a side in a game where St. Bonaventure was involved but it probably was when Bob Lanier was at center for the Bonnies in 1970 (and yes I was betting these games when I was at NYU). SB is looking for their second straight Atlantic-10 title and have an all senior starting lineup but lost 74-64 loss to No. 15 Connecticut last Saturday and are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall. Virginia Tech after opening the season with four straight wins has lost 4-of-6 and are 0-4 ATS in their last four neutral site games while the Bonnies are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 neutral site games but are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall. That ends here. Take ST. BONAVENTURE! | |||||||
12-14-21 | Alabama v. Memphis +5.5 | Top | 78-92 | Win | 100 | 12 h 13 m | Show |
Alabama at Memphis 9:00 ET Tigers (+) over Crimson Tide- No. 6 Alabama has been good to 'us' defeating Gonzaga outright as an underdog and beating Houston but not the 'number' in a non-cover victory. Tonight is a first for the Crimson as they will be playing their first true road games of the season. Memphis in the meantime is 4-5 after having lost their last four including a 74-72 home loss to Murray State last Friday. I look for the Tigers to scratch and claw their way to a win here in this non-conference battle. Take MEMPHIS! | |||||||
12-12-21 | Villanova +4.5 v. Baylor | Top | 36-57 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 28 m | Show |
Villanova at Baylor 3:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Bears- A pair of Top-10 ranked cagers meet at Baylor where the No. 4 ranked Bears will host No. 6 Villanova in what should be the best college basketball game of the day. The defending National Champions are undefeated (8-0) and are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven this season. This Wildcats will be playing their third road game of the season and have yet to 'cover' and are 0-2 ATS losing at UCLA after destroying Michigan State 91-51. The Bears have had the best of it to date but have yet to play a team with this much big game experience. Take VILLANOVA! | |||||||
12-11-21 | Houston +3 v. Alabama | Top | 82-83 | Win | 100 | 12 h 3 m | Show |
Houston at Alabama 10:00 ET Cougars (+) over Crimson Tide- No. 9 Alabama has had seven days to savor their 91-82 outright win over former No. 1 Gonzaga and now they will host No. 14 Houston who is 8-1 SU losing only to Wisconsin 65-63 while the Tide's only loss (8-1) was against Iona. The surprise out of Houston is that they are allowing just 53.4 PPG ranking No.2 in defensive scoring and on the flip side Alabama is ranked 241 allowing 71 PPG but scores 86.4 PPG ranking No. 6. Cougars are 9-3 ATS as road underdogs and get it done here. Take HOUSTON! | |||||||

The Hawkeyes lead the series 47-27 and are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 after a SU loss. Add that the Cyclones are 6-13 ATS in their last 19 home games and the underdogs is 6-1-1 ATS in the last eight meetings. Take IOWA! | |||||||

Texas Tech vs Tennessee 7:00 ET Red Raiders (+) over Volunteers- This should be a good early season matchup as both clubs are 6-1 AU and 4-3 ATS with both clubs coming off their first true road games of the season. The Vols had better fortune coming from behind to win at Colorado while the Red Raiders blew a lead a Providence and fell 72-68. This game is at Madison Square Garden and Texas Tech is 4-1 ATS as neutral site underdogs and although Tennessee is 4-1 ATS as neutral site favorites they are 2-7 ATS after a ATS win. Take TEXAS TECH! | |||||||

Syracuse at Florida State 4:00 ET Seminoles (-) over Orange- Syracuse enters its ACC opener after a huge double-overtime win over Indiana after getting blown out by Auburn in their previous game. The Orange (4-3) are led by a clan of Boeheim's as Buddy and Jimmy Boeheim scored a combined 53 points against the Hoosiers. Florida State is off a loss to the No.2 team in the nation getting trounced by Purdue 93-65 and now the Seminoles come up strong favorites in their conference opener. The Orange defense is one of the worst in the nation surrendering 82 PPG ranking 345th. Take FLORIDA STATE! | |||||||

Cincinnati at Miami-Ohio 7:00 ET Red Hawks (+) over Bearcats- With all the attention on Cincinnati directed toward the football field the Bearcats basketball team is yearning for some attention. The Bearcats opened the season with five straight wins and have now dropped their last two losing to No. 13 Arkansas in Kansas City and then shocked by Monmouth-NJ (+11) 61-59. Miami-O also started the year 5-0 but dropped their last contest at Western Illinois 79-67 their first road game of the season.

The Bulldogs were undefeated and coming off a thrashing of No. 2 UCLA in Las Vegas Tuesday night. Ohio State hasn't been so fortunate dropping two of three including a 71-68 loss to No. 23 Florida on a 3-point buzzer-beater. Although Duke is 19-3 in the Challenge the Buckeyes are 9-11 defeating North Carolina and Notre Dame the last two events. OSU is 7-2 ATS in their last nine games as underdogs.

Oklahoma vs Central Florida 2:00 ET Knights over Sooners- Under coach Johnny Dawkins Central Florida is 4-0 for the first time in four years and will be hosting a 5-1 Oklahoma team playing their first true road game. Being on the road is a place the Sooners would rather not be as they are 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games overall and 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games as favorites. The Knights are 4-1 as underdogs and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Take CENTRAL FLORIDA! | |||||||

OSU is 8-5 over the Gators in their 13 series meetings and I like the team that hard the tougher road to the finals. Take OHIO STATE! |
