12-29-23 | Bucks -5.5 v. Cavs | 119-111 | Win | 100 | 11 h 1 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Bucks square off against the Cleveland Cavaliers in NBA action. Milwaukee is 23-8 this season while Cleveland is currently 18-13. The Bucks have won eight of their last night games while Cleveland has won five of their last six. Milwaukee is 8-1 in their last nine games, with an average margin of victory of +12.2. Cleveland has won two straight and five of their last six games. Cleveland is dealing with a lot of injuries at the moment. Mobley and Garland are out and Mitchell is still a question mark. If Mitchell does go. Cleveland will still be without two starters and this Bucks team is starting to put things together with their new pieces. The Bucks have too much offense in this one. Play on Milwaukee. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-29-23 | Nets -6 v. Wizards | 104-110 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
The Brooklyn Nets go on the road to take on the Washington Wizards. Brooklyn lost to the Milwaukee Bucks after winning two straight games against the Pistons. Washington is on a three-game losing streak after losing to the Toronto Raptors by 30. The Nets are putting up 116.2 points. The Nets are giving up 116.3 points a game. The Wizards are putting up 116.6 points a game and on the defensive end, they are ranked last in points allowed per game. The Nets have been good on the offensive end this season and with their best players being rested yesterday they should have a huge night against the Washington defense. The Wizards have given up the most points in the NBA. The Wizards have been struggling all season long and have not played consistently on either end of the court. The Nets have more depth and more scoring options. They blew out the Wizards the last time these two teams met and I look for the same in this one. Play on the Brooklyn Nets. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

12-29-23 | Memphis +10.5 v. Iowa State | 36-26 | Win | 100 | 7 h 60 m | Show | |
Memphis and Iowa State will meet in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. The game will actually be played in Memphis’ home stadium. The Tigers are 9-3 this season and won five of their last six games. The Cyclones are 7-5 this season and they split their final four games of the season. Memphis is putting up 39.7 points per game which ranks seventh in the nation. On the defensive end, they gave up 29 points per game. Memphis is 4-7-1 against the spread this season. The Tigers are 1-4-1 against the spread when Memphis has played at home this season. The Tigers lost starting RG Davion Carter, S Cameron Smith, and OT Makylan Pounders to the transfer portal. Iowa State will be without their top two running backs for this game. Iowa State put up 26.3 points per game. On the defense side, the Cyclones are allowing 21.7 points per game. Iowa State is 7-5 against the spread this season. This is the first time this season that Iowa State has been a double-digit favorite. ISU will be going with a freshman running back and quarterback. Memphis will be able to put up points in this game as they can move the ball on the ground and through the air. The Cyclones' defense is good, but it's not elite. This is a lot of points as I don’t think the ISU offense can score a ton of points. This is just too many points. Play on Memphis. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-29-23 | Notre Dame -6 v. Oregon State | 40-8 | Win | 100 | 5 h 27 m | Show | |
No. 19 Oregon State and No. 16 Notre Dame meet in the Tony the Tiger Sun Bow. The Beavers were 8-4 SU, 6-6 ATS, and went 5-4 in Pac-12 play. The Fighting Irish finished 9-3 SU, 9-3 ATS. Oregon State averaged 33.8 points per game but over their final two games, they averaged just 13.5 points per game. Oregon State’s defense allowed 21.5 points. They not only lost their head coach and most of their offensive staff but were hit hard with the portal and opt-outs. Starting quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei and tight end Jack Veiling entered the transfer portal, wide receiver Anthony Gould declared for the NFL Draft, and running back Damien Martinez was suspended. On the defensive side, they lost their two top tacklers. QB Ben Gulbranson threw one pass all season. The Fighting Irish won four of their last five to close out the season. Notre Dame put up 39.1 points per game and their defense allowed just 16.6 points per game. As bad as the exodus was for Oregon State it was worse for the Irish. Starting quarterback Sam Hartman and running back Audric Estime left for the NFL Draft while their top three wide receivers went into the portal. They also lost two starting offensive tackles and their starting center, as well as their two top tight ends. On defense, starting linebacker Marist Liufau and cornerback Cam Hart also left. QB Steve Angeli had little playing time this season, going 19-25 for 272 yards with four TDs and an INT. Both teams have been decimated by the transfer portal and opt-outs. Both teams will be going with backup quarterbacks and probably running backs depending on whether or not Martinez plays. OSU’s Gulbranson started the last eight games in 2022 but threw just one pass this season. Notre Dame has enough on defense to allow them to get the win and cover. Play on Notre Dame. This is a 2% play. | |||||||
12-29-23 | Notre Dame v. Oregon State UNDER 41.5 | 40-8 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 26 m | Show | |
Oregon State split their games evenly this year between the over and under. Notre Dame went over the number in eight of their 12 games in the regular season. They went over in their last five games to end the season. Playing time has been very limited for many of the Notre Dame and OSU players. OSU’s quarterback has only thrown one pass this season. I can see both teams looking to establish the run. I think the defenses will be ahead of the offenses. Take the UNDER. Play on the UNDER. This is a 2% play | |||||||
12-28-23 | Spurs v. Blazers -4 | 118-105 | Loss | -112 | 14 h 33 m | Show | |
The San Antonio Spurs are just 4-25 this season and 11-18 ATS. They go on the road to take on the Portland Trail Blazers who are 8-21, 14-15 ATS. The Spurs have lost five in a row after a loss to Utah while Portland is coming off a win against Sacramento. The Trail Blazers are the better team overall playing at home and will have some mismatch advantages. The Trail Blazers have covered in three of their past four matchups. The Spurs have won just once in their 24 games and would be the joke of the league if it weren’t for the Pistons. Take the Balzer at home. Play in Portland. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-28-23 | Arizona -135 v. Oklahoma | 38-24 | Win | 100 | 13 h 43 m | Show | |
In the Valero Alamo Bowl, the No. 14 Arizona Wildcats take on the No. 12 Oklahoma Sooners. Arizona finished the season with a 9–3 record, while the Sooners finished 10–2. The Sooners will have to go without starting quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who has already transferred to the Oregon Ducks. Quarterback Noah Fifita has been a catalyst for Arizona's success. The Wildcats' three losses have been all decided by one score. Arizona had minimal losses through the transfer portal and NFL opt-outs. On the other hand, Oklahoma has had significant losses, impacting key positions, including the departure of offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby, the offensive line, and the absence of star quarterback Dillon Gabriel. Arizona should be able to score on a Sooner defense that gave up 29 points in their last seven games. I can’t trust the Sooner offense with all their losses, especially at quarterback. Play in Arizona on the money line. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-28-23 | Jets v. Browns -7.5 | 20-37 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
The New York Jets head to Cleveland to take on the Cleveland Browns. New York is 6-9 SU, while Cleveland is 10-5 SU,as well as 10-5 ATS. The Jets have gone 2-1 SU over their last three games, but they had lost five in a row before that. The Jets offense is 30th in the NFL in scoring at just 15.4 points per game. On the defensive end, the Jets are giving up 21 points a game but have given up 29 points in their last two games. The Browns, despite all their struggles at quarterback this season, have won three in a row and are fifth place in the AFC. Cleveland’s offense is putting up 23 points a game this season and they have averaged 29 points per game over their last three games. On the defensive end, the Browns are giving up 22 points per game. New York is 7-3 SU and ATS in the last ten games. The Jets are on their fourth different quarterback and with Zach Wison not expected to make it back, The Brown's defense will be able to tee off on the Jets' offense. Over their last eight games, the Jets are 1-7 ATS. In their last nine games, Cleveland is 7-2 ATS and 3-0 ATS over their last three. At the end of the season, motivation can become a factor and the Browns have all the motivation in this one. The Browns can clinch a playoff spot with a win, while the Jets are hoping this nightmare season will be over soon. The Jets only rank 30th in scoring and will have trouble putting up points against Cleveland's top-ranked defense. I am looking for Cleveland’s defense to control this game and the offense to score enough to cover. Play in Cleveland. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-28-23 | Jets v. Browns OVER 34.5 | 20-37 | Win | 100 | 12 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a pretty low number and I can see the Browns pitching a shutout but will go with a flier on the over. The Jets scored 30 last week and the Browns have been scoring over their three-game winning streak and the Jets defense has averaged 29 points the last two games. Cleveland has gone over in four of their last five games. They have scored at least 36 total points in eight of their last ten meetings. Cleveland’s offense has scored at least 21 points in nine games this season. With Flacco under center, they have averaged 26.5 points per game. The over is 4-1 in Cleveland’s last five games and 2-1 in the Jets last three. Play on the OVER. This is a 3% play | |||||||
12-28-23 | Pacers -1 v. Bulls | 120-104 | Win | 100 | 12 h 34 m | Show | |
The Indiana Pacers head to the Windy City to take on the Chicago Bulls. Indiana is coming off a 123-117 win over the Rockets on Tuesday. The Pacers are in eighth place in the Eastern Conference. Indiana is putting up 125.8 points per game and is shooting 50.2% from the field and 37.8% from three. On the defensive end, they are giving up 125.4 points per game. Chicago is in 10th place in the East and fourth in the Central Division. The Bulls are putting up 110.2 points per game and on the defensive end, they are giving up 112.4 points per game. The Pacers have not played as well since the in-season tournament but they continue to make shots at a high level. Chicago's offense has not been great this season but has been playing better, but the Bulls don't have a lockdown defense, and will not be able to keep up offensively. The Pacers are the most efficient team in the league. Chicago's offense is inconsistent in hitting open shots. I like the Pacers in this one. Play on Indiana. This is a 4% play | |||||||
12-28-23 | SMU -10.5 v. Boston College | 14-23 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 27 m | Show | |
The 24th-ranked SMU Mustangs take on the Boston College Eagles Wasabi Fenway Bowl. The Mustangs finished the regular season with an 11-2 record and nine straight wins, while the Eagles struggled down the stretch to finish at 6-6. The SMU Mustangs put up 40.2 points per game. Quarterback Preston Stone threw for 3.197 yards with 28 passing touchdowns to six interceptions but is out with a broken leg. Kevin Jennings started and won the AAC title game for the Mustangs. As good as their offense was, their defense was just as good, allowing 17.4 points per game. The Boston College Eagles lost their final three regular season games. The offense averaged 25.0 points per game. On the defensive end, they gave up 29.5 points per game. The Mustangs are the better team and should be able to dominate on offense even with Jennings at quarterback. Patrick Garwo is one of Boston College’s best players but he neutered the portal which will limit their offense even more. BC has caught a break with the weather and it is very mild in Boston for late December. SMU has a lot of weapons and now Jennings has had a month to prepare for this game and work with the offense. I like SMU in this game as BC did not look good closing out the season and the Mustangs have more to play for. Play on SMU. This is a 3% play | |||||||
12-27-23 | Louisville -7 v. USC | 28-42 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 42 m | Show | |
Louisville has a top-ranked defense and as they say, defense travels. USC hasn’t had much of a defense either on the road or at home. The Trojans will be facing the Louisville defense with a backup quarterback and runningback. When going with a quarterback that hasn’t seen a lot of action, teams turn to the running game but USC will be going up against the 14th-ranked Cardinals rush D. Louisville will also be missing key portions of their offense but will still have veteran QB Jack Plummer. Key Louisville players are entering the NFL draft but will look to improve their stock worth here. USC not only lost Williams for this game but also their top running back, their receiver with the most touchdowns, and a starting cornerback will miss this game as well. They are also missing extra pieces on defense that were not very good when at full strength. USC went 3-9 ATS this season. USC has only covered once since September 23rd. With the advantage at quarterback and defense for Louisville. I like them to win and cover over an unmotivated USC team. Play on Louisville. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

Milwaukee stays in New York City to take on the Brooklyn Nets after dropping their Christmas Day game to the Knicks. Brooklyn won their game last night against the Detroit Pistons but came away with a push after missing 5 of 6 free throws in the last 26 seconds. The Buck's loss snapped a seven-game winning streak. The Bucks have played well over the last week or so, putting up 132 points per game over their last 8. For the season, they are putting up 124.5 points per game this season. They are shooting 49.9% from the field and 38% from three-point range. On the defensive end, they are giving up 119.1 points per game. The Nets have won two in a row, against the Pistons, after losing five straight. For the season, Brooklyn is putting up 116 points per game. They are shooting 46.8% from the field and 38.5% from three. On the defensive end, they are giving up 115.5 points per game this season. Milwaukee is 8-2 SU and 6-4 ATS over their last games versus Brooklyn. The Nets have the ability to light up the scoreboard but can and will struggle on the offensive end against the Bucks. Play on Milwaukee. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-27-23 | North Carolina v. West Virginia -5.5 | 10-30 | Win | 100 | 6 h 20 m | Show | |
The W. Virginia Mountaineers has not been hit as hard in terms of opt-outs and portal transfers as Carolina has. When you lose your quarterback who is projected to be the no.1 or 2 pick in the draft, your offense is going to take a hit. Harrell will be making his first career start for the Tar Heels. The freshman quarterback will also be without some of the team’s top weapons. West Virginia will have pretty much all of their starters for this one. Down the stretch, the Tar Heels went 1-4 ATS over their last five games while the Mountaineers went 3-2 ATS over the same span. Without Maye and Walker going for the Heels, the Mountaineers had a significant advantage. I look for West Virginia to try to run and succeed in running the ball against the Heels' 89th-ranked run defense. North Carolina always has the ability to just outscore everyone but that ability is gone in this one. Take the Mountaineers in this one. Play on W. Virginia. This is a 3% play | |||||||

Two of the top teams in the Western Conference meet up when the Minnesota Timberwolves go on the road to take on the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Timberwolves are a 1/2 game behind Boston for the best record in the NBA at 22-6. The Thunder are 18-9 so far this season. The Wolves are 10-5 on the road this season. The Wolves have the 18th-ranked scoring offense and the first-ranked scoring defense. Karl Anthony Townes is listed as questionable for this game with a knee injury. The OKC Thunder are currently 18-9 on the season and are in third in the conference. The Thunder has the fifth-ranked scoring offense and the 14th-ranked scoring defense. Josh Giddey has an ankle injury and is listed is questionable for this game. Minnesota took the first-ranked game between the two, 106-103. These teams are evenly matched and i am looking for a close game. I am going to take the points with Minnesota in this one. Play on Minnesota. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

The Utah Jazz are go on the road to take on the San Antonio Spurs. Utah has won two straight and five of their last seven. The Jazz are 12-18 on the season and are in fourth in the Northwest Division. The Jazz are putting up 113 points per game this season. On the defensive end, they are giving up 119.4 points per game. San Antonio has lost four in a row and 22 of their last 23. They are just 4-24 on the season. The Spurs are putting up 110.6 points per game and on the defensive end, they are giving up 123 points per game. Wembanyama has missed two of the last three games and is questionable for this contest. Utah has won two straight, both on the road, and five of their last seven games. The Spurs have lost 22 of their last 23. I like the jazz in this one, with or without Wemby in for the Spurs the Jazz still have an edge. Play on Utah. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

The Brooklyn Nets take on the dreadful Detroit Pistons. The Nets took care of the Pistons 126-115 at home on Saturday. The Nets had lost five in a row before beating the Pistons. The Nets have covered the spread in just one of their last five games. The Nets have struggled on the road lately going 1-4 overall and ATS in their five games on the road. Brooklyn is putting up 116 points and on the defensive end, they are giving up 115.5 points. The Pistons are the worst team in the league, and they are on a 26-game losing streak. The Pistons have covered in one of their last five games. There is no home-court advantage for the Pistons as they have won just once on their home floor. They have covered in just one of their last five home games. Detroit is putting up just 109.2 points and on the defensive end, they are giving up 120.9 points. They have given up at least 124 points in four of their last five games. Detroit has lost by at least eight points in nine of their last ten games. The Pistons haven’t shown me that they can play a consistent four quarters. Play on Brooklyn. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-25-23 | Ravens +6.5 v. 49ers | 33-19 | Win | 100 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a potential Super Bowl matchup in February. The Ravens match up well against the 49ers on both sides of the ball which makes this number a little high for a game that could come down to who has the ball last. Baltimore has been favored in all but one of their games this season. The one time they were an underdog, they won outright. The Ravens are 4th in scoring offense and 1st in scoring defense. The 49ers are good and playing really well at the moment but let's not forget they did lose three in a row earlier in the season. Baltimore’s defense will give Purdy and the offense some problems. I am taking the points in this one. Play on Baltimore. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-25-23 | Ravens v. 49ers UNDER 47 | 33-19 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
It is going to be hard to establish long drives and I would expect the offenses to break down before the defenses. These are two of the best defenses in the league. Baltimore is first in defensive scoring, and San Francisco is second. I don’t see a lot of long plays with a lot of underneath passes in the passing game. Both teams will look to establish a running game and with a lot of short passes you can get some long time-consuming drives but I don’t see a lot of touchdowns. I can understand liking the over as both offenses are high-powered but I like the defenses to shine in this one. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-25-23 | Giants v. Eagles OVER 43 | 25-33 | Win | 100 | 5 h 33 m | Show | |
The Eagles defense has not been as stout as people had thought it would be this season. The Giants have the worst passing game in the country and the Eagles have the second-best rushing defense. The Giants are also near the bottom in third-down conversions. The Giants have gone under in 10 of 14 games. The Giants D will be no match for the Eagles offense. The Eagles have too many weapons and I expect them to come out firing and try to get the offense back on track. I like the Eagles to score in the 30’s themselves and the Giants will score just enough to push this over the number. Play on the over. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-25-23 | Raiders v. Chiefs UNDER 42 | 20-14 | Win | 100 | 1 h 51 m | Show | |
When they last met, these two combined for 48 points, which marked the sixth time in the last seven meetings between these two teams that went over the number. This season these two teams have gone under in 19 of 28 games. You have to throw out last week's game against the Chargers but in the four games before the Chargers game, Vegas didn’t score more than 17 points in a game. They have not scored more than 17 points in 10 games this season. Las Vegas has stayed under the number in four of their six road games this season. Five of the Chiefs’ six home games have gone under the number. Both defenses are in the top 10 in scoring and I am looking for a low-scoring game in this one. KC has not been putting up a ton of points on their own and I don’t see the Raiders scoring much in this one. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-25-23 | Bucks -155 v. Knicks | 122-129 | Loss | -155 | 1 h 10 m | Show | |
This will be a rematch from Saturday's contest won by the Bucks 130-111. Milwaukee is second in the Eastern Conference at 22-7. New York is 16-12 and sits sixth in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks will be looking for their eighth win in a row. They are putting up 124.6 points per game this season, and on the defensive end, they are giving up 118.8 points per game. New York is ranked ninth on the defensive end, allowing 112.0 points a game. On the offensive end, they are putting up just 114.6 points per game. The Knicks play solid defense but were unable to slow the Bucks down. Milwaukee has too much firepower and the Knicks don’t have the offense to match up. Play on Milwaukee. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-24-23 | Cowboys v. Dolphins UNDER 48.5 | 20-22 | Win | 100 | 7 h 43 m | Show | |
These are the top two scoring offenses in the NFL. The Cowboys' offense isn't as strong on the road as it is at home. If Hill can’t go or is even slowed, the Dolphins' fast-paced offense losing something. The Cowboys are ranked just 15th in the NFL in turning red zone opportunities into touchdowns while the Dolphins have dropped to 21st in the NFL. Miami is banged up at wideout, offensive line, and running back. Tua and the offense will struggle against the Cowbow’s fron seven and the Miami defense should be able to slow Dak down. I am looking for a tighter defensive game in this one. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

The Lions played their most complete game of the season and possibly in years last week against the Broncos. They look to clinch the NFC North with a win. Detroit has proven they can win on the road and with a backup for the Vikings at quarterback they should have confidence coming into this one. Detroit has one of the league's best running games and should be able to control the ball on the ground, which will open up their passing game. Detroit has covered the spread in two of their last three games, while Minnesota hasn't covered in any of their last three. Detroit has covered in five straight against the Vikings. Detroit’s offense is not as good on the road, but they will be indoors for this one. Detroit has its eye on the prize and will come away with the NFC North title. Play on Detroit. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-24-23 | Lions v. Vikings OVER 47.5 | 30-24 | Win | 100 | 3 h 28 m | Show | |
Both offenses can put up points and both defenses have given up points at times this season. The Vikings have the league's best receiver back on the outside and will be definitely targeting him in this game. Detroit may not have the best receiver, but they do have one of the best and a loaded receivers room to with him. They also have a two-headed monster in the rushing game, which when not grinding out yards is an integral part of the passing game. The over has hit in the last three games between these two and in five of Detroit's last six games overall. Play on the OVER. | |||||||
12-24-23 | Browns v. Texans UNDER 40 | 36-22 | Loss | -108 | 3 h 24 m | Show | |
Without CJ Stroud, Houston has moved to a more rush-focused offense with Devin Singletary getting most of the work. Both teams rely on field goals and defense and that is even more pronounced now with both teams going with backups. The Texans are 18th in the league with 32 touchdowns while Cleveland is 22nd with 30. The under has hit in 4 of the last 5 for the Texans. With Houston relying on the run and I don't think the get much from the passing game, and the Brown’s offense being what it is, I like this game under the number. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-23-23 | Bills -11.5 v. Chargers | 24-22 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 45 m | Show | |
The Buffalo Bills go on the road to take on the Los Angeles Chargers. The Bills won two straight and three of their last four. They have scored at least 30 points in three of those games. They are in the top 10 in passing and running the ball. They will be facing a Chargers defense that does not defend the ball well and is worse against the pass. The Chargers fired coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco, They have lost five of their last six games including two straight and three straight home games. They have not scored more than 20 points in four of their last five games. Easton Stick will be under center so don’t expect much from their passing game and their running game is poor. It is hard to see the Chargers getting up for this game after quitting last week against the Raiders. Lay the points with the Bills. Play on Buffalo. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-23-23 | Bengals v. Steelers +3 | 11-34 | Win | 100 | 5 h 52 m | Show | |
We have an AFC North showdown with huge playoff implications between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cincinnati comes into this contest at 8-6 and sixth in AFC while Pittsburgh is currently 7-7 and sits 10th in the playoff hunt. The Bengals Jake Browning has guided the Bengals to three straight wins after losing his first start at quarterback. The Steelers have lost three in a row and will be going with a new quarterback. TJ Watt leads the NFL in sacks and should be able to apply pressure to Browning and cause some bad throws. The Bengals will be without Chase in this one.

The Bengals’ run defense ranks 28th in the league, allowing 128.3 yards per game. I expect Pittsburgh to try and loosen the load on Mason Rudolph and try to establish Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren on the ground and shorten the game. The under has cashed in 10 of the last 14 games between these two teams when the game is played in Pittsburgh. This will be an AFC North battle that will rely on the defenses and with no Chase, the Bengals offense will be more limited. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

The Milwaukee Bucks travel to Madison Square Garden to face the New York Knicks. Milwaukee is 21-7 and sits second in the Eastern Conference. New York is fifth in the Eastern Conference at 16-11. Last season the Bucks won all three of their games against the Knicks. The Bucks come into this game having won five in a row. They are putting up 124.4 points per game. They are shooting 49.6 percent from the field and 37.9 % from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 119.0 points. The New York Knicks are playing well on the defensive end, where they are giving up just 111.4 points per game. On the offensive end, they are putting up 114.7 points per game. They rank sixth in three-point shooting percentage, the Knicks are 23rd in field goal shooting percentage. The Bucks have the second-best offense in the league. Even though the Knicks have a strong defense, their defense struggles against stronger offensive opponents. In their last three games against top 10 offenses, the Knicks lost by at least 10 points. The Knicks will find it difficult to match up against Antetokounmpo and Lillard. The Bucks will overpower the Knicks in this one. Play on the Milwaukee Bucks. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

The Denver Nuggets go on the road to take on the Brooklyn Nets. Denver has won five of six and three straight on the road. The Nuggets score 115.2 points per game and shoot 49.0 percent from the field and 37.3 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 110.3 points per game and their opponents shoot 46.2 percent from the field and 35.7 percent from deep. The Nets put up 115.6 points per game and are shooting 46.5 percent shooting from the field and 38.4 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they give up 115.3 points per game. Brooklyn started the season 17-5-1 ATS but has lost four straight ATS. The Nets are too reliant on the three-ball. The Nuggets can take away the three-ball and are tough to score on at the rim. The Nuggets shouldn’t have a problem scoring against the Nets defense. I am looking at the Nuggets to roll in this one.

Chicago is coming off a win over the Lakers last night and will be on the second game of a back-to-back. The Bulls have won seven of their last ten even though they have been without Zach LaVine. Chicago has been playing better basketball without LaVine and has covered the spread in eight of nine games. The Spurs do not have the perimeter defenders to slow down Derozan and White.

Baylor has won 9 of 10 but were blown out against their only competition. Duke is 7-3 but has played tougher competition. This will be Baylor’s first game against a ranked opponent. They lost by over 20 to a Michigan State team that Duke has already beaten. The Bears do not have an answer for Kyle Filipowski down low. Baylor’s defense is its weakness. Michigan State shot lights out against Baylor and I look for Duke to have similar success, Play on Duke on the money line. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

The Celtics have won five straight games and 8 of their last 9. Golden State is just 12-14 overall and they are in 11th place in the Western Conference. The Warriors have won back-to-back games. Boston is putting up 117.6 points per game and they shoot 47.8% from the field and 37.2% from behind the arc. On the defensive end, they are giving up 108.5 points per game and their opponents shoot 44.5% from the field and 36.5% from behind the arc. Kristaps Prozingis is questionable for Tuesday’s game.

On the defensive end, the Warriors are giving up 115.7 points per game and their opponents are shooting 46.5% from the field and 34.9% from deep. Paul is questionable to play on Tuesday. Gary Payton II is still out with an injury while Draymond Green has been suspended indefinitely. The Warriors have struggled this season with injuries and suspensions and have not found their rhythm. Golden State has not been shooting as well as past teams and the Celtic’s defense will make things difficult. Without Green, they will struggle to slow down Tatum and Brown. Golden State is also just 3-9 against the spread when playing at home. Play on Boston. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

On the defensive side, they are giving up 126.0 points per game, and their opponents are shooting 50.8% from the field and 39.6% from deep. The Clippers are getting it done on both ends of the court. The Clippers are putting up 115 points a game and should be able to score against a Pacers defense that has some deficiencies. The Pacers have an outstanding offense but I think the Clippers will be able to slow things down. The Clippers should be able to control things on the boards. I like the Clippers in this one.

The last two games between the two have gone over the number. Both teams rank in the top half of the league in several key offensive categories. The Ravens rank at in the top 10 in the league in average points scored per game on the road. Baltimore has scored 20 or more points in three straight games on the road. The Jaguars have gone over the total in four of their last five games played at home and they scored 30 or more in three of their last four. The Jaguars' defense ranks in the bottom half of points per game allowed. They give up more points at home than on the road. Baltimore has gone over in three of their last four games. Jacksonville has given up 30 points in back-to-back games against backup quarterbacks. I would expect Baltimore to do the same. Jacksonville could struggle with Lawrence's slack of mobility but they should do enough to put this one over the number. Play on the over. This is a 3% play | |||||||

The San Francisco 49ers have a division matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. San Francisco comes into this game at 10-3 while Arizona is currently 3-10. San Francisco has won five in a row. The Cardinals were in the running for the top draft pick but for some reason, they have decided to win two of their last four games. San Fran has been blowing teams out over their winning streak, with an average margin in their wins being 19.4 points. They have the league’s third-best offense with 29.2 points a game. They will be facing a Cardinals defense that ranks 30th with 25.5 points allowed per game. San Francisco is 4-2 ATS in their last six matchups against the Cardinals.

The Carolina Panthers come in at 1-12 and unfortunately, they don’t own the No. 1 draft pick in the upcoming draft. The Atlanta Falcons come in at 6-7 and are hungry for a win. The Buccaneers, Falcons, and Saints are tied for the NFC South so all games count for the Falcons. Atlanta will rely on their defense which ranks 12th in scoring at 20.7 points per game. They give up 3.9 yards per rush (10th) and 6.6 yards per pass attempt (8th) which will be tough for the struggling Panthers offense to overcome. Atlanta's offense scored just 15 points last week and has exceeded 20 points in four of their past five games. On the season, they have put up 19.3 points a game as they have spent the season trying to find a consistent quarterback. Carolina’s offense has struggled to integrate a rookie into an offense with no weapons or offensive line. They are putting up just 15.2 points per game and have failed to score a touchdown in 3 games this season. The Panthers' defense spends too much time on the field and gets tired late. They have given up 26.2 points per game. The Falcons score 19.3 points per game and should find success against a Panther defense that allows 26.2 points per game. The Falcons took the first game of the season by 14 and I can't see how Carolina has made significant improvement. Only two teams score fewer points than the Panthers. I look for Atlanta to move the ball on the ground with Robinson and pick their spots through the air. Take Atlanta to win this game. Play on Atlanta. This is a 5% play. | |||||||

The Chicago Bears somehow find themselves in the mix for the playoffs as they are 13th in the NFC with a 5-8 record. They do come in on a two-game winning streak. The Cleveland Browns have been playing well despite a ton of injuries. They are the fifth seed in the AFC with an 8-5 record. The Bears' offense is putting up 20.8 points a game. They are fourth in the league with 138.0 rushing yards a game and will need to establish the run to minimize the Brown’s pass rush. The defense is giving up 23.8 points per game but has been playing better since Montez Sweat joined the defense. They have allowed just 23 combined points over the last two games. The Cleveland Browns are putting up 22.2 points a game. They are a dominant running team ranking seventh in the NFL. Joe Flacco has been playing well since joining the team. This defense has allowed just 20.9 points a game but will be without their leading tackler and second-best pass rusher. Chicago is allowing 16.8 points in their previous four games while Cleveland is giving up a remarkable 30.7 points in their last three games. Chicago can continue winning games with a chance to make the playoffs and be locked into the top pick in the NFL draft. Cleveland will be without two top defensive players, both offensive tackles and a guard. Sweat has made a huge difference to the Bears pass rush and Flacco is not that mobile. I think the Bears' defense will be the difference and the Bears have a great chance to win this game outright. Play on Chicago. This is a 5% play | |||||||

Pittsburgh and Indianapolis enter the week in those 6th and 7th playoff spots in the conference, but four other teams share a 7-6 SU record with them. Both teams will be going with a backup QB this week. The Colts offense ranks 8th in Points per Game at 24.2 and the Colts defense ranks 29th in Opponent Points per Game at 25.4. Those two factors tend to put Colts games over the number. They have gone over the number in three straight and in six of the past eight games. Pittsburgh hasn't scored more than 20 points in over a month. Pittsburgh has gone under in 10 of their 13 games, as they rely on their defense to make plays. The Steelers are still only 27th in scoring. Both teams are on their backup quarterbacks, and will probably rely more on the ground game to attempt to keep this game close. I am looking for a low-scoring AFC battle and I don’t see Pittsburgh doing enough to put this game over the number. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

KenPom has Purdue ranked as the #3 team and their offense ranks 3rd in the nation in efficiency and their defense ranks 9th. Edey is a monster inside but will have to compete against 2 capable 7-footers for Arizona. Edey is used to scoring on smaller opponents, but Ballo is a powerful 7-footer, and Krivas is 7'2.

Texas A&M is putting up 76.6 points a game and is shooting 43.2% shooting from the field and just 28.3% from three. Texas A&M is giving up 69 points a game while their opponents shoot 42.9% from the field and 35.2% from three. Houston is putting up 76.4 points a game and is shooting 43.6% from the field and 34.7% from deep. On the defensive end, the Cougars are giving up just 49.7 points and their opponents are shooting 35% shooting from the field and 27.5% shooting from deep. The Aggies have lost three of their last five as their offense has been inconsistent and their defense has not been shutting teams down as it did to start this season. Houston is one of the most experienced teams in the country. Houston has not allowed 70 points or more yet this season. Houston is the better offensive team and the vastly better defensive team. The Aggies rely on the three and I don’t think they will be able to shoot well enough to stay in this one. Play on Houston. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

The Vikings are also 7-6 overall and in sixth place in the NFC. The Vikings have won six of their last eight after starting the season 1-4. Nick Mullens replaced Dobbs in the fourth quarter and will get the start in this game. He may be without one of the best receivers in the league with Justin Jefferson being listed as for questionable for Saturday’s game. Alexander Mattison, wide receiver Jalen Nailor, and guard Dalton Risner are also questionable. The Vikings are putting up 20.5 points per game which ranks 21st.and on the defensive side of the ball, they are giving up 18.6 points per game. The Vikings are 7-4-2 against the spread this season. Jake Browning has been decent since replacing Burrow going 2-1. He could be without wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tyler Boyd who are listed as questionable for Saturday’s game. Cincinnati is putting up 21.5 points per game and on the defensive side, they are giving up 22.1 points per game. The Bengals are 6-6-1 against the spread this season. They are 2-1 against the spread since Burrow’s injury. Both teams have gone to back-up quarterbacks and in the Vikings case, it will be their fourth. The Vikings offense will not be able to move the ball well enough to come close to winning on Saturday. The Bengals have won two straight games and have scored more than 30 points in both games. The Vikings' pass defense isn’t very good, so I expect them to struggle to slow down the Bengals' passing game. The Vikings have lost two of their last three games and haven’t looked good on offense.

The Georgia Southern Eagles are on a four-game losing streak. Georgia Southern is 5-3 Against the Spread as favorites this season. Ohio will struggle on the offense end with a third-string quarterback and their top two running backs due to transfers. They will have most of their defense for this game which will be needed to keep them in this game with a diminished offense. The Georgia Southern offense was able to move the ball well against most of its opponents during the regular season.

Ohio's offense is currently much weaker than Georgia Southern’s defense and will have a hard time scoring with a weakened offense. Ohio's defense allowed 15.4 points per game. The total has finished under in 12 of Ohio's last 16 games and in six of the last seven games Georgia Southern has played during the month of December. With the offensive struggles that Georgia Southern showed down the stretch and with Ohio’s offense being down to their third-string quarterback, I think this number is a little on the high side.

Both teams score in the mid to upper 80s, and on the defensive end, they are allowing in the mid 60’s. Both shot over 50% from the field as well. Gonzaga had to go against a big man in the middle in Zach Edey but it did not go well. Edey had 25 points and 14 rebounds and even though Donovan Clingan is not Edey, he will cause problems for Gonzaga around the rim. UConn has three over 40% of their shots, connecting on 70% of them.

They have scored two or fewer goals in six of their last nine games. On the defensive end. They rank 17 in shots but are a dismal 30th in goals against. Since Connor McDavid returned to the lineup the offense has been clicking. They rank 3rd in shots per game and 6th in goals per game. They have scored four or more goals in seven of the last eight games. On the defensive end, they rank 20th in goals against and fifth in shots against per game. Edmonton has won eight in a row coming into this game. The Oilers average 3.50 goals per game, they should be able to find the back of the net against a Lightning back end that is allowing 3.53 goals per game.

For the season, they have put up 21.7 points a game and the defense has allowed 21.7 points per game. The Raiders offense hasn’t scored more than 17 points in any of their last three games and for the season they are putting up just 15.5 points per game. On the defensive side, they are giving up just 19.9 points per game, which ranks ninth in the league. Over the last ten meetings, the Raiders hold a slight 5-4-1 ATS advantage. The Chargers struggled to score with Herbert out last week and I don’t see them doing much against the Raider’s defense. The Raiders are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five games and the Chargers are 1-4 ATS. The Raiders didn’t score last week but come in as the favorite. I think they will be able to move the ball enough against the Chargers' defense to score some points. I can’t see how a Chargers team playing with a third-string quarterback and no running game will be able to score against the Vegas defense. It may take the Vegas defense to score to win this one. Play on the Vegas Raiders on the money line. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-14-23 | Chargers v. Raiders UNDER 34 | 21-63 | Loss | -110 | 29 h 15 m | Show | |
These two teams have scored a combined 33 points in their last two games. Los Angeles kicked just two field goals against New England and have scored a total of just 23 points over their last three games. They struggle to run the ball and will be going with a third-string quarterback. Vegas has a decent defense that will limit the Chargers' already limited offense. The Raiders’ offense has only once scored over 17 points in their six games. The under is 6-4 in the last ten meetings between these two. The under is also 8-2 in the Raiders' last ten games and 9-1 in the Chargers' last ten. The Raiders and Vikings combined to score three points last week, and the Chargers and Patriots only combined to score six points in the previous week. This game will be ugly and I don’t see a lot of scoring in this game. Play on the UNDER. | |||||||
12-14-23 | Hurricanes v. Red Wings +151 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
Carolina has lost five of their past seven games. On the road, they are 7-10-0 and have lost four of their last five road games. Detroit is 7-3-1 over their past 11 games and is 15-9-4 on the season. They are 8-4-3 at home this season. Detroit has won six of the last 10 and 3 of the last five against Carolina. Carolina has struggled on the road this season while Detroit has played well at home and is 3-1-1 in their last five games on home ice. The addition of veteran Patrick Kane to the lineup has added depth to a young and talented team. I am taking the dog on home ice in this one. Play on Detroit. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-13-23 | Sabres v. Avalanche -1.5 | 1-5 | Win | 125 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |

The Sabres have struggled on offense, scoring three or fewer goals in seven of their last 10 games. The Avs scored three or more goals in seven of the last 10 games.

The #8 Creighton Bluejays are 8-1 this season overall and 7-2 ATS. The UNLV Rebels are 3-4 this season and 2-5 ATS. According to KenPom, Creighton ranks 12th in the nation in offensive efficiency and 8th in defensive efficiency. KenPom has UNLV ranked 74th in offensive efficiency while their defense ranks 220th. Creighton has covered spreads of 19 or more five different times this season. UNLV does not have the size to stop Kalbrenner and he will have a field day inside. UNLV has lost three games as a favorite and now plays their toughest competition of the season. Creighton puts up 86.8 points per game. And allow just 63.4 points a game. Creighton has the better offense and defense and will easily take care of a UNLV team that has been blown out by lesser teams. Play on Creughton. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

The Los Angeles Lakers are on the road to take on the San Antonio Spurs. This will be the second game of a back-to-back for the Lakers.

On the defensive end, they are giving up 111.8 points a game. San Antonio has struggled this season and is just 3-19 this season and has lost 16 in a row. The Spurs are putting up 109.4 points a game and they are shooting 45.1% from the field and 33.6% from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 121.4 points a game. Even though this is a back-to-back situation for the old Lakers, I still like them in this game. The Lakers are solid on the defensive end while the Spurs have struggled to score. The Spurs have struggled on the defensive end and even if not everyone plays for LA, they have enough offensive weapons to score in this game. LA is 12-12 against the spread while San Antonio is 8-14 against the spread and at home is 4-7. I like the Lakers in this one. Play on the LA Lakers. This is a 3% play. | |||||||

12-13-23 | 76ers -11.5 v. Pistons | 129-111 | Win | 100 | 6 h 18 m | Show | |
The Philadelphia 76ers square off against the Detroit Pistons in NBA action. Philly comes into this game having won three straight and are 15-7 ATS this season. Philadelphia is led by Joel Embiid with 33.4 points, 11.5 rebounds, and 6.4 assists a game. Tyrese Maxey adds 27 points and 6.7 assists. As a team, they are putting up 122.0 points and are shooting 48.0 percent from the field and 37.8 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 113.2 points and their opponents are shooting 46.6 percent from the field and 35.7 percent from deep. Detroit started the season by winning two of their first three games and have not won a game since, losing 20 straight. Detroit is 8-14-1 ATS this season. Detroit is led by Cade Cunningham with 22 points and 7.3 assists a game. Jalen Duren adds 12.6 points and 10.9 rebounds but is out for this game with an ankle injury. Detroit is putting up 108.7 points a game and they are shooting 46.4 percent from the field and 34.0 percent deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 118.8 points a game and their opponents shoot 48.4 percent from the field and 37.0 percent from deep. Outside of Cunningham, Detroit doesn’t have a reliable scorer. Philadelphia has Embiid and Maxey that can score over 25 and have depth with 3 others scoring 15. The Pistons are just 1-11 straight-up at home but have covered four of those. Embiid should have a huge night, as Detroit’s interior defense has been weakened by injuries to Jalen Duren and Marvin Bagley III. Detroit could keep this one close early, but I have no faith in them keeping it up for the whole game. Play on Philadelphia. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-12-23 | Hofstra v. Duke -15 | 68-89 | Win | 100 | 12 h 4 m | Show | |
The Hofstra Pride and No. 21 Duke Blue Devils will meet for the first time. Hofstra had a five-game winning streak snapped by St. Louis last time out. They are putting up 80.4 points per game this season, on 47.8% shooting from the field and 38.7% from deep . On the defensive end, they are giving up 68.9 points per game and their opponents are shooting 38.9% from the field and 34.5% from three-point range. Tyler Thomas leads the Pride with 23.6 points per game. The Blue Devils snapped a two-game losing streak with a win over Charlotte on Saturday. Duke is putting up 80.8 points per game this season, on 47.8% shooting from the field and 35.4% from behind the arc. On the defensive end, they are gigging up 65.9 points per game, and their opponents are shooting 42.4% from the field and 31.1% from deep. Kyle Filipowski leads Duke with 17.3 points and 8.9 rebounds per game this season. Hofstra loves to shoot the three-ball, making 11.2 threes each game. That won't be easy to replicate against the Duke defense and playing at Cameron Indoor for the first time. Duke has a huge advantage in the paint and has four guards they can throw at Thomas to slow him down and make it difficult for him to get going. Duke has covered some big spreads this season and were 15-point favorites last time out and easily covered that number. I expect them to cover this number as well. Play on Duke. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-11-23 | Titans v. Dolphins OVER 46 | 28-27 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
Monday Night Football features the Tennessee Titans and the Miami Dolphins. The Titans rank 25th in scoring with 17.8 points per game. On the defensive end, they are giving up 21.3 points per game which ranks 16th. Miami leads the league in total offense with 428.4 yards per game and is 2nd in scoring with 32.0 points. Their defense is not as good as the offense as they rank 21st in the league by allowing 22.2 points per game. The Dolphins managed to put up 45 last weekend and even though they might not hit that score they will score in this one. The Titans rank 22nd in passing defense while Miami’s strength is the passing game. I am looking for a huge game from Hill in this one. The Titans have gone over in two of their last three games, while the Dolphins have gone over in two straight. With the Titans allowing 31 to the Colts, and 34 to the Jaguars I can see the Dolphins at least being able to get in the 30s. The Titans will more than likely lean on Levis and the passing game and as long as he has a decent game, the Titans should be able to move into scoring position a few times this game. Miami will score most of the points but Tennessee will do enough to put this one over the number. Play on the OVER. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-11-23 | Mavs -1.5 v. Grizzlies | 120-113 | Win | 100 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
The Dallas Mavericks and the Memphis Grizzlies have split their two games this season. Dallas is putting up 119.9 points per game and has reached that mark in three straight games. Luka Donic is putting up 31.9 points a game. In the game Memphis won, Doncic didn’t play in that game. The Mavericks have struggled on the defensive end this season so don’t expect a defensive struggle. The Mavs will be without Kyrie Irving, Grant Williams, Josh Green, and Maxi Kleber. The Grizzlies have struggled on the offensive end with Ja Morant being suspended and Marcus Smart, Brandon Clarke, Steven Adams, and Luke Kennard being injured. They do play better on the defensive end. This is a good matchup for the Mavericks. Their offense should be able to put up points and even though their defense is not great they have held Memphis to just 109 points a game this season. Dallas has won two in a row. Memphis is tied with the Spurs for the second-fewest wins in the West and they only have one home win. Memphis won without Doncic on the floor, now that he is playing, the Grizzlies won’t be so lucky. Play on Dallas. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

Detroit is one of if not the worst team in the league. Detroit ranks 28th in offense at 108.0 points per game and 23rd in defense, allowing 118.2 points per game. The Pistons are led by Cade Cunningham, with 22.0 points per game, Bojan Bogdanovic adds 17.7 points. The last five wins have come by an average margin of victory of 7.8 points per game. The Pacers have a huge advantage on the offensive end and with both a lack of offense and defense I like the Pavers to cruise in this one. The Pistons are 2-5 ATS over their last seven games.

As good as Washington has been on the offensive end, Philadelphia has been even better. The Sixers are fourth in points per game this season. On the defensive side, they are 18th in points per game allowed this season. Each team is in the top 7 in fastbreak points per game. Washington will try to push the pace, as they rank second in the NBA in pace of play. Last week, the two teams combined for 257 points and I a looking for the same type of game in this one.

The Broncos have won five of their last six games and have scored at least 24 points in three of their last five games. The Chargers have lost three of their last four games. Denver likes to run the ball and should have success against a Chargers defense that has struggled to stop the run. I like Denver to control this game on the ground and their defense will limit the Chargers passing game. Take the points with Denver. Play on Denver, This is a 4% play Play. | |||||||
12-10-23 | Vikings -150 v. Raiders | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 17 h 15 m | Show | |
The Minnesota Vikings are coming off a bye week and are 6-6 on the season. They travel to Sin City to take on the 5–7 Las Vegas Raiders. Both teams come into this one with two straight losses. Even though the Vikings lost Cousins for the season and Jefferson for a few games, they still rank 6th in Passing Yards/Game at 258.6. With Jefferson back in the lineup, Dobbs has another reliable weapon in his arsenal. Las Vegas has only scored more than 17 points once in their last six games. Jefferson's return adds a spark to the Vikings offense. The Vikings' defense hasn't given up much in the first half of games so I am looking for the Vikings to get out to an early lead in this one. The Raiders struggled in pass pro, allowing 28 quarterback sacks this season, and will struggle against a Vikings defense that has recorded 32 quarterback sacks. Las Vegas is putting up just 16.8 per game. The Vikings have covered the number in their last five road games and six of their last seven overall. Las Vegas failed to cover the number in nine of their last twelve against NFC opponents. Take the Vikings to cover the number in this one. Play on Minnesota on the money line.

Henry Coleman III adds 14.3 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. Memphis has shown they can compete, having beat Missouri, Michigan, and Arkansas. Memphis plays at a fast pace that could cause the Aggies problems. Texas AM relies on hitting the three ball and I look for Memphis to push the pace after Aggie misses.

The Bears are only 2-3 in their last five games and 2-3 at home. The Bears do not have the offense to keep up with the Lions. They have scored 17 or fewer points in four of their last five games.

They are 5-1-1 against the number in the last seven games against Washington. Gonzaga will look to push the pace before Washington sets up its defense. They have an advantage on the boards which should lead to second-chance points and some running opportunities. Also, Gonzaga doesn’t take bad shots so Washington will have to be patient on the defensive end. This is Gonzaga’s first true road game. The Zags will use their depth, advantage on the glass and this low number to come away with a cover. Play on Gonzaga. This is a 4% play. | |||||||

The Kraken have also won four of their last five matchups overall against Tampa Bay.

The Patriots lost 6-0 to the Chargers last week and Pittsburgh lost 24-10 to Arizona. Nothing has gone right for the Patriots this season. They have lost five in a row and have been held to seven points or less for three straight games and five times this season. Whether it be Bailey Zappe or Mac Joned, the quarterback position has been dreadful this season. The Patriots are 23rd in passing offense, 22nd in the league in rushing offense, and 32nd in scoring offense at 12.3 points per game. On the defensive side, they are 16th in scoring defense at 21.2 points per game. The Steelers are 7-5 on the season and they hold the top wild-card spot in the AFC with four teams with 7-5 records. The Steelers rank 28th in passing offense, 14th in rushing offense, and 28th in scoring offense at 16 points per contest. On the defensive side, they rank 6th in scoring defense, giving up 19.1 points per game. Both teams have not gotten much from their quarterbacks and now the Steelers will be without Pickett for the next couple of weeks. I am not sure it will be any worse. New England’s offense has been terrible all season coming in last in the league in scoring. For what it is worth Pittsburgh has at least been able to move the ball on offense the last couple of weeks. It doesn't matter if it is Zappe or Jones, the loss of Stevenson is a big detriment to the Patriots' offense. I don’t see how they move the ball against the Pittsburgh defense. The Chargers only needed six points to get the win and I think the Steelers will score a little more and shut out the Patriots once again. Play on Pittsburgh. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-07-23 | Patriots v. Steelers UNDER 30.5 | 21-18 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 27 m | Show | |
New England has gone under the total in nine of their 12 games this season. They have gone under the number in four of their five road games this season and have gone under in four straight. Pittsburgh has gone under the total in 10 of their 12 games on the year. Five of their seven home games have gone under the number. Over their last five games, the Patriots offense has averaged 9.4 points per game. The Pittsburgh offense doesn’t give you a lot of confidence, especially playing a backup quarterback. I look for the Steelers to run the ball more and not make their backup quarterbacks take chances. I don’t see a lot of points in this game, even at this low number. Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play | |||||||

Each of the Bucks’ last four wins has come by at least six points. Milwaukee has depth with six players averaging in double figures this season. Milwaukee has a height advantage which will be the difference in this one. Play on Milwaukee. This is a 2% play. | |||||||
12-06-23 | Hurricanes v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 41 m | Show | |

12-06-23 | Golden Knights v. Blues UNDER 6 | 6-3 | Loss | -120 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
The Vegas Golden Knights are 18th overall in goals per game at 3.08. On the defensive end, they are No.1, allowing just 2.31 goals a game They are also excellent in killing off penalties. Doing it at an 86.7% clip. With Adin Hill out for a week, Logan Thompson takes over in net. He is 6-3-3 this season with a .919. Save percentage and a 2.33 Goals against average. The Blues are putting up 2.88 goals per game which ranks 23rd. They are converting on just 9.9% of their powerplays. They are giving up 3.04 goals a game. The Blues took the last game by a 2-1 score. Neither team has been scoring well at the moment. The Blues will struggle against the best defense in the NHL, especially on their home ice. The Golden Knights have allowed four goals in their last three games. The Blues have only scored three goals in their last two games. I like the under to hit in this one. Play on the under.

12-06-23 | Texas +8.5 v. Marquette | 65-86 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
We have a good BIG 12-BIG EAST matchup tonight with the Marquette Golden Eagles taking on the Texas Longhorns. Texas ranks 43rd in points scored at 81.3 points per game. On the defensive end, they are giving up 65.9 points per game, which ranks 58th in the country. Marquette lost their first game of the season to Wisconsin last time out. Wisconsin had a huge advantage on the boards which led to the win. Marquette is putting up 79.3 points per game which is 63rd in the country. They have not reached this number in two of their last three games. On the defensive side end, they are giving up 67 points per game, which ranks 74th. Marquette struggled on the boards against Wisconsin and I think the same thing will happen against Texas. Texas can defend both the perimeter and the paint and I look for them to cause Marquette some problems on that end of the floor. Former Texas head coach Shaka Smart will look to get revenge against his former team in this one. Both teams play at s slower pace which will limit possessions. I like Texas to keep this one close at the end. Take the points with Texas. Play on Texas. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-06-23 | Memphis -159 v. VCU | 85-80 | Win | 100 | 9 h 25 m | Show | |
The Memphis Tigers take on the VCU Rams in nonconference action. Memphis is 5-2 this season while VCU is 4-4. Memphis had started the season by winning five straight games but have lost two in a row since. They are led by David Jones with 18.4 points and 6.3 rebounds a game. Jahvon Quinerly adds 10.9 points and 4.6 assists. VCU has also struggled as of late, having lost three of their last four. They are led by Max Shulga with 16.0 points per game. Zeb Jackson adds 14.9 points and 4 assists. Both teams have struggled as of late losing a combined five out of the last six. Looking at KenPom, Memphis ranks 42nd and VCU is 103rd. Memphis’s last two losses came against tough competition. The Tigers are the more talented team. VCU is coming off a home loss to Norfolk State so you can’t say VCU has an imposing home-court advantage. Jones will cause VCU problems on both ends of the floor. I am looking at Memphis to come away with a win and cover. Play on Memphis on the money line. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-06-23 | Rutgers v. Wake Forest -165 | 57-76 | Win | 100 | 9 h 50 m | Show | |
Wake Forest takes on Rutgers in a non-conference matchup between two power conferences. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are 5-2 this season and are coming off a loss at home to Illinois.

They are putting up 78.9 points per game on the offensive end and 72.7 points a game on the defensive end. They played last season, with Rutgers coming away with a 24-point win. This is a different Knight’s team as they are as strong offensively. They average under 70 points and are shooting just over 40%. Wake has four players averaging 16 points or more. Rutgers has struggled to score and Wake has no problem putting up 70 a night. I like Wake’s chances at home to have another huge offensive night. Play on Wake on the money line. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-05-23 | Indiana +7.5 v. Michigan | 78-75 | Win | 100 | 12 h 43 m | Show | |
The Indiana Hoosiers have a Big 10 conference showdown with the Michigan Wolverines. Indiana went 2-0 against Michigan last season. The Hoosiers come into this game winners of three straight. They opened conference play with a win over Maryland and have covered in two of their last three games. Indiana is putting up 73.6 points and allowing 68.4 points a game. The Hoosiers have allowed less than 70 points in four of their seven. The Michigan Wolverines come into this game having lost four straight games. The Wolverines have covered the spread in just one of the last five games. The Wolverines are putting up 82 points and are allowing 76.5 points a game. They have given up 73 points or more in seven of eight games. These teams are heading in opposite directions at the moment. The Hoosiers are the better defensive team and should be able to slow down the ochigan scorers. Each of the Hoosiers' last five wins have been by eight or more points. I look for the Hoosiers to control this game with their defense and inside game on offense. Play on Indiana. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-04-23 | Bengals v. Jaguars OVER 40 | 34-31 | Win | 100 | 16 h 57 m | Show | |
Cincinnati has gone under in 6 of their 11 games this season but has gone over in three of their 5 games -played on the road. Jacksonville has also gone under in 6 of 11 games. They have gone over in three of their five home games on the season. The Bengals are last in passing yards allowed per attempt at 7.6. I am looking for a big day from Lawrence passing the ball against this defense. This is a different Bengals offense without Burrow, but Browning does have some weapons to throw to and the Jaguars may be without one of their starting cornerbacks, I am going to buck the trend and take the over as I think the Bengals will score enough to put this one over the number, Play on the over, This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-03-23 | Dolphins -9 v. Commanders | 45-15 | Win | 100 | 9 h 51 m | Show | |
Both teams come into this game well-rested, This game will come down to the big-play abilities of the Miami Dolphins offense against a Washington defense that allows too many big plays. On the defensive side, Miami has a very good pass rush that should be able to get pressure on Howell and force some bad throws. The Dolphins are 7-4 against the spread this season and the the Commanders are 5-6-1 and as a home underdog are 0-1-1. I am looking for the Dolphins to get enough big plays on both sides of the ball to cover the number. Play on Miami. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-03-23 | Chargers -4.5 v. Patriots | 6-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 26 m | Show | |
Neither side can give you a lot of confidence as the Patriots are just a bad team and the Chargers have been known to give games away this season. I will be taking the better quarterback with better weapons. Herbert is a known commodity with better offensive weapons, while with Zappe you are not sure what you are going to get. The Chargers have scored at least 20 points in eight of their 11 games this year. The Patriots have nothing to play for but a quarterback in the next draft and the best way to ensure you get a good one i by losing. I like the Chargers to cover this one and hold on at the end, Play on LA Chargers. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-03-23 | Lions -4 v. Saints | 33-28 | Win | 100 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
New Orleans did not look good last week against the Atlanata Falcons ad they were only able to kick five field goals. The Saints suffered key injuries to their recieving Corps and coould struggle in this game in the passing attack. The Lions did not play good game against the Packers, turning the ball over three times. Detroit will try to establish their running game against a defense that gave up over 200 yards rushing last week. The Lions defense need to step up as they have not played well the last few weeks.. Detroit has covered the spread in five of its last six road games. I am on the Lions to win and cover in this one. Play on Detroit. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-02-23 | Michigan -21.5 v. Iowa | 26-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 59 m | Show | |
The Big Ten Championship Game, I feel will be anticlimactic with the undefeated Michigan Wolverines taking on the underwhelming Iowa Hawkeyes. Despite all the drama around the team, I feel you will see total domination from the Wolverines against the Hawkeyes. Michigan is 12-0 on the year but just 6-5-1ATS. The defense has been outstanding this season allowing 10.3 points a game. Iowa has to be the most underwhelming, ugliest offense on a ten-win team ever. Iowa was also 6-5-1. Iowa got it done all season with their defense, which was ranked fourth in the country with 12.2 points allowed per game. These teams faced off in the 2021 Big Ten Championship Game with Michigan coming out on top 42-3. Iowa relies on their running game and I don’t see them doing much against the Michigan defense. Their QB completes less than 50 percent of his passes, so I am not sure where points are coming from. Play on Michigan. This is a 4% play. | |||||||
12-02-23 | Michigan v. Iowa OVER 35 | 26-0 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 37 m | Show | |
Iowa has not seen a total this high in their last six games and this total is the lowest total in a conference title game since 2000. Iowa’s defense has the numbers to be seen as a top defense, Their competition outside of Penn State has been lacking in offense. prowess and Penn State isn’t that prolific on offense. e a whole different beast. Michigan can move the ball on the ground and through the air. The Wolverines were the 13th-best offense this season, with 37.6 points per game. I think Michigan can hit this over with no help from Iowa. Play on the OVER. This is a 5% play | |||||||

The two best teams in the SEC will meet up once again in the SEC Championship with the Georgia Bulldogs and the Alabama Crimson Tide. Alabama has beaten Georgia in each of their three meetings in Atlanta. Georgia comes in a 29-game winning streak. Alabama comes in with an 8-4-0 ATS record and they have won 10 games in a row. Georgia Bulldogs on the other hand has struggled against the number, posting a 4-7-1 ATS record. Georgia’s offense has started to come together but their defense has not been up to the same level as in years past. I think Bama will keep this one close and cover the number. ROLL DAM TIDE!!! Play on Alabama. This is a 3% play. | |||||||
12-02-23 | Oklahoma State +15.5 v. Texas | 21-49 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 41 m | Show | |
The 19th-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys and the 7th-ranked Texas Longhorns for the Big 12 Championship on Saturday. The Cowboys are 9-3 this season and have won two in a row. The Longhorns finished up the regular season at 11-1. OSU made it to the Championship with a 40-34 win over BYU in double overtime. OSU comes in with the 26th-ranked offense in the country. They are 50th on the ground and 40th through the air. On the defensive side of the ball, the Cowboys will need to step up as they are 112th in the country in total defense. The 7th-ranked Texas Longhorns The Longhorns come with the 15th-ranked total offense. On the defensive end, Texas is 23rd in the country in total defense. They are fourth against the run but just 85th against the pass. The Longhorns are still playing for a playoff spot while the Cowboys are looking to play spoiler. Texas will be without their starting running back in Baxter while defensive backs, Watts and Jordan, questionable. Oklahoma State runs its offense through running back Gordon III but could have problems as the Longhorns are ranked fourth against the rush. OSU likes to use Gordon to run the ball and set up their short passing game. I think OSU will be able to use their short passing attack and the rushing ability to keep this one close. Play on OSU.
