02-06-19 | Connecticut v. Temple -3.5 | 63-81 | Win | 100 | 4 h 24 m | Show | |
6* UConn/Temple AAC *CA$H COW* on Temple -3.5 The Key: The Temple Owls will be hungry for a win after losing 3 of their last 5 coming in. The Owls are 16-6 this season and a bubble NCAA Tournament team. All 6 losses came by 10 points or fewer so they have been in every game they’ve played. The Owls are 8-2 at home this season, while the Huskies are 1-7 in all road games, including 0-4 SU in true road games. The Huskies are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 road games. The Owls are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss. Connecticut is 0-8 ATS in road games when playing its 3rd game in a week over the last 2 seasons. It is losing by 16.2 PPG in this spot. Take Temple. |

02-05-19 | NC State +10.5 v. North Carolina | 96-113 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 45 m | Show | |
6* NC State/UNC ACC *CA$H COW* on NC State +10.5 The Key: The NC State Wolfpack are coming off their worst game of the season. They scored 24 points, shot 16.7% from the field and 2-for-28 (7.1%) from 3-point range. It was a tough spot for them. They were coming off an overtime loss to Virginia and had this game against UNC on deck, making it a sandwich game. I think because their performance was so bad, we’re getting a few extra points here as the Wolfpack are now double-digit underdogs. They were 1.5-point favorites at home over UNC the first time the met, so this is a 12-point adjustment from that line and it’s too much. The Wolfpack want revenge on their rivals here. Bets on road dogs of 10 or more points who are off an upset loss by 15 points or more as a favorite when playing on Tuesday nights are 24-4 ATS since 1997. Take NC State. |
|||||||
02-02-19 | Kansas State -3.5 v. Oklahoma State | 75-57 | Win | 100 | 10 h 20 m | Show | |
6* Big 12 Game of the Day on Kansas State -3.5 The Key: Kansas State had won 5 straight prior to its loss at Texas A&M. And two of those wins came on the road at Iowa State and Oklahoma. This team is so much better than Oklahoma State it’s not really even close. This is a Cowboys team that is just 5-9 SU & 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games overall. They are probably the worst team in the Big 12 if it’s not WVU. The Wildcats are 6-0 ATS in road games after scoring 55 points or less over the last 3 seasons. The Cowboys are 2-11 ATS at home when the line is +3 to -3 over the last 3 seasons. Oklahoma State is 2-8 ATS in its last 10 home games. The Cowboys are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games against a team with a winning record. The road team is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take Kansas State. |
|||||||
02-02-19 | Temple v. Tulane +10.5 | 75-67 | Win | 100 | 10 h 20 m | Show | |
6* AAC Game of the Day on Tulane +10.5 The Key: Tulane has covered two straight games with a 10-point loss as 14.5-point dogs at SMU and a 1-point loss as 5-point dogs at ECU. This team is playing better of late, and now they are getting 10.5 points at home against Temple. This is a deflated Owls team that will suffer a hangover from back-to-back close losses to Cincinnati and Houston, their two biggest contenders for the AAC title. They’ve only had one day to recover from their loss at Houston on Thursday. Take Tulane. |
|||||||
02-02-19 | Duquesne +9.5 v. Dayton | 64-68 | Win | 100 | 6 h 20 m | Show | |
6* Atlantic 10 Game of the Day on Duquesne +9.5 The Key: Duquesne is 15-6 on the season. The Dukes are 6-2 in Atlantic 10 play with their two losses coming in narrow fashion by 6 to VCU and by 4 at Davidson. And now they are catching too many points here as 9.5-point dogs to Dayton. This is a Dayton team with some lackluster home wins and even home losses. They won by 4 over Georgia Southern, by 5 over UMass and actually lost outright to George Mason in recent home games. Duquesne is 9-1 ATS in road games off 2 consecutive home games over the last 3 seasons. Dayton is 0-9 ATS off a conference home win over the last 2 years. The Flyers are 3-17 ATS off a home win over the last 2 years. Take Duquesne. |
|||||||
02-02-19 | North Carolina v. Louisville +2 | Top | 79-69 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 20 m | Show |
7* UNC/Louisville ACC *HEAVY HITTER* on Louisville +2 The Key: Louisville is playing as well as anyone in the country. The Cardinals are 6-0 SU & 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall with their only non-cover coming in a 10-point win over Boston College as 11-point favorites. All 6 wins have come by 7 points or more and 5 of them by double-digits. That includes their 21-point win at UNC as 11-point dogs. And now they are dogs again here against UNC. Louisville is 12-1 at home this season with its only loss to Kentucky. Take Louisville. |
|||||||
01-31-19 | Oregon v. Utah -2 | 78-72 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
6* Oregon/Utah Pac-12 *CA$H COW* on Utah -2 The Key: The Utah Utes are playing too well to only be 2-point home favorites over the Oregon Ducks tonight. I like the price with the Utes, who are 4-0 SU & 4-0 ATS in in their last 4 games overall with their 4 wins coming by 12.3 PPG. Oregon is just 3-4 SU & 3-4 ATS in its last 7 games overall and hasn’t been able to overcome the loss of it’s best player in Bol Bol. Utah is 8-1 ATS as a home favorite of 6 points or less or PK over the last 3 seasons. Larry Krystkowiak is 9-1 ATS off a game where they made 13 or more 3-point shots as the coach of the Utes. The Ducks are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 road games. The Utes are 45-19-3 ATS in their last 67 home games against a team with a losing road record. Take Utah. |
|||||||
01-30-19 | West Virginia +13 v. Iowa State | Top | 68-93 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 30 m | Show |
7* WVU/Iowa State Big 12 *HEAVY HITTER* on West Virginia +13 The Key: With the temperatures in the Midwest tonight, the Iowa State Cyclones won’t have their normal home-court advantage. Fans will be staying home instead of going to this game tonight. And I think the Cyclones are primed for a letdown following their road win at ranked Ole Miss over the weekend. The WVU Mountaineers beat Kansas recently and hung tough on the road at No. 1 Tennessee before falling apart late. And they should be able to hang with the Cyclones for 40 minutes in this one. Bets on dogs of 10 or more points who score 74-78 PPG against a team that gives up 63-67 PPG after 15-plus games, off a loss by 15 points or more are 39-15 ATS since 1997. Take West Virginia. |
|||||||
01-29-19 | Pittsburgh +9.5 v. Clemson | 69-82 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 9 m | Show | |
6* Pitt/Clemson ACC *CA$H COW* on Pittsburgh +9.5 The Key: Clemson would have to win by double-digits to cover against Pitt tonight. It’s too many points, especially for a disappointing Clemson team that has been overrated all season. The Tigers are just 11-8 SU & 6-13 ATS this season. They are 1-5 SU & 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games overall, which have been all ACC games. Pitt is coming off a brutal stretch where they faced UNC, Louisville twice, Duke, Syracuse, FSU and NC State. Clemson is worse than all 6 of those teams and Pitt is more than capable of hanging around. The Panthers are 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 games vs. a team with a winning record. The Tigers are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games. Take Pittsburgh. |
|||||||
01-29-19 | Virginia v. NC State +7.5 | 66-65 | Win | 100 | 5 h 4 m | Show | |
6* Virginia/NC State ACC *CA$H COW* on NC State +7.5 The Key: The Virginia Cavaliers have now covered an incredible 10 consecutive games. They are getting a lot of respect from oddsmakers now as they keep having to set their spreads higher and higher. And now they are 7.5-point road favorites against a quality NC State team that is more than capable of beating them. The Wolfpack are 12-1 at home this season and winning by 22.9 PPG. Take NC State. |
|||||||
01-29-19 | Tennessee v. South Carolina +9 | Top | 92-70 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 34 m | Show |
7* Tennessee/South Carolina SEC *HEAVY HITTER* on South Carolina +9 The Key: The South Carolina Gamecocks have been one of the most underrated teams in the SEC over the past few seasons. The Gamecocks are 11-2-1 ATS in their last 14 SEC games. That includes upset wins over Florida, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt and Auburn already this season in SEC play. And now they are getting 9 points at home to Tennessee. The Gamecocks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings with the Vols, not once losing by more than 7 points in those 5 games. Take South Carolina. |
|||||||
01-27-19 | Houston v. Tulsa +7.5 | 77-65 | Loss | -110 | 1 h 15 m | Show | |
6* Houston/Tulsa AAC *CA$H COW* on Tulsa +7.5 The Key: It’s like night and day the way Tulsa plays home and away. On the road they have been terrible, going just 2-7 SU in all road games. But they are 10-1 at home with their only loss coming to Cincinnati in overtime. And I think they can hang with Houston here. The Golden Hurricane want revenge from their 18-point loss at Houston in their first meeting this season earlier this month. Tulsa is 7-0 ATS in home games when revenging a loss over the last 2 seasons. The Golden Hurricane are 6-0 ATS as a home underdog or PK over the last 2 seasons. Take Tulsa. |
|||||||
01-26-19 | Utah -5.5 v. California | Top | 82-64 | Win | 100 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
7* Pac-12 Game of the Week on Utah -5.5 The Key: Fading the Cal Bears is the gift that keeps on giving. They are far and away the worst team in the Pac-12. The Bears are 5-14 SU on the season and 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games overall. They have lost 8 straight coming in with all 8 losses coming by 9 points or more. That includes home losses to Seattle by 9, ASU by 14, Arizona by 22 and Colorado by 9. They also lost on the road to USC by 9, UCLA by 15, Washington State by 23 and Washington by 19. Utah has won 3 straight coming in with a win by 18 at home of Washington State, by 9 at home over Colorado and by 4 at Stanford. They should easily cover this 5.5-point spread today. The Utes are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 Pac-12 games. The Bears are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games. Take Utah. |
|||||||
01-24-19 | NC State v. Louisville -4 | 77-84 | Win | 100 | 5 h 2 m | Show | |
6* NC State/Louisville ACC *CA$H COW* on Louisville -4 The Key: The Louisville Cardinals have been playing some of the best basketball in the ACC here of late. They are 4-1 in their last 5 games overall. They beat Miami by 17 at home, UNC by 21 on the road as 11-point dogs, Boston College by 10 at home and Georgia Tech by 28 on the road in their 4 wins. NC State has benefited from a home-heavy schedule this year, playing just 4 true road games. They lost at Wisconsin and Wake Forest, and only beat Notre Dame and Miami by a combined 9 points. Miami is terrible, and Notre Dame is short-handed and rebuilding. Louisville will be the best team they’ve played on the road yet. The Cardinals are 10-1 at home this season. The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. Take Louisville. |
|||||||
01-23-19 | Loyola-Chicago -2 v. Missouri State | 35-70 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
6* MVC Game of the Day on Loyola-Chicago -2 The Key: Loyola is starting to play much more like the team that went to the Final Four last year than the one that opened this season struggling. The Ramblers have gone 7-2 SU & 6-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall. Five of those seven wins came by double-digits. Missouri State, which is just 2-4 in conference play, won’t offer much resistance tonight. Missouri State is 0-8 ATS in home games off a road loss to a conference team over the last 3 seasons. The Ramblers are 12-4 ATS in there last 16 games against a team with a losing record. The Ramblers are 42-16-1 ATS in their last 59 road games against a team with a winning home record. The Bears are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games against a team that wins at least 60% of their games. Take Loyola-Chicago. |
|||||||
01-22-19 | Clemson +6.5 v. Florida State | Top | 68-77 | Loss | -115 | 2 h 26 m | Show |
7* NCAAB Situational Game of the Month on Clemson +6.5 The Key: It’s rare that you’ll see one team with such a big rest advantage over another team in the middle of conference play. But that’s the case here with Clemson having a big edge in rest coming in over Florida State. Clemson last played on January 16th and has had five full days off to get ready for the Seminoles. Florida State just played on Sunday, January 20th, so they only have one day to get ready for Clemson. And the Seminoles are not playing well, going 1-4 SU in their last 5 games and 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games. The Seminoles are 0-6 ATS vs. good free throw shooting teams who make 72% or more of their attempts this season. The Seminoles are 2-11 ATS in their last 13 ACC games. Take Clemson. |
|||||||
01-21-19 | Creighton v. Georgetown -1.5 | 91-87 | Loss | -106 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
6* Monday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Georgetown -1.5 The Key: The Georgetown Hoyas are 9-3 at home this season with their 3 losses coming by 3, 3 and 8 points. The Creighton Bluejays are 1-4 in true road games this year with their 4 losses coming by 19, 13, 15 and 15 points. This is a pretty easy choice tonight as the Hoyas basically just have to win at home to cover this short number. Creighton is 2-11 ATS as a road underdog or PK over the last 2 seasons. The Bluejays are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 road games overall. Take Georgetown. |
|||||||
01-19-19 | South Carolina +9 v. LSU | 67-89 | Loss | -108 | 6 h 54 m | Show | |
6* SEC Game of the Day on South Carolina +9 The Key: The South Carolina Gamecocks are 5-0 SU & 4-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall. They have upset both Florida and Vanderbilt on the road, while also upsetting Mississippi State at home, and beating Missouri by 10 as 4.5-point home favorites. The Gamecocks are better than they are getting credit for with this 9-point spread. LSU is not going to beat them by double-digits. It’s a letdown spot for the Tigers off their upset road win over Top 25 Ole Miss last time out, and Ole Miss team that was also in letdown mode off an upset road win at Mississippi State in its previous game. LSU is 0-6 ATS off a win an SEC win by 10 points or more over the last 3 seasons. It is coming back to lose by 13.0 PPG in this situation. The Gamecocks are 10-1-1 ATS In their last 12 SEC games. Take South Carolina. |
|||||||
01-19-19 | St. John's +4.5 v. Butler | 71-80 | Loss | -109 | 4 h 24 m | Show | |
6* Big East Game of the Day on St. John’s +4.5 The Key: Chris Mullin has far and away his best team at St. John’s this season. The Red Storm are 15-3 this year with all 3 losses by single-digits, losing by 2 at Seton Hall and by 5 at Villanova among them. They have beaten Marquette by 20 at home, Georgetown on the road, and Creighton by 15 at home. They are the better team in this matchup with Butler, which is down in the midst of an 11-7 rebuilding year. The wrong team is favored here. Butler is 0-7 ATS off a game where they made 78% of their free throws or better this season. St. John’s is 6-0 ATS after having lost 2 of its last 3 games over the last 2 seasons. The Red Storm are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games against a team with a winning record. Take St. John’s. |
|||||||
01-17-19 | Santa Clara +16.5 v. St. Mary's | Top | 55-75 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 39 m | Show |
7* WCC Game of the Month on Santa Clara +16.5 The Key: Santa Clara has gone 7-2 in its last 9 games overall while going 8-1 ATS in the process. They have upset the likes of USC, Washington State and San Diego, and their only losses were on the road to Gonzaga and BYU. This St. Mary’s team is in rebuilding mode and not as strong as most season with just an 11-7 record on the season. The Gaels are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 home games when coming off a road win by at least 10 points. The Broncos are 10-4-1 ATS in their last 15 road games. Take Santa Clara. |
|||||||
01-16-19 | Boston College +11 v. Louisville | 70-80 | Win | 100 | 4 h 56 m | Show | |
6* ACC Game of the Day on Boston College +11 The Key: This is more of a situational play than anything. I’m fading Louisville in a letdown spot off their blowout win at North Carolina over the weekend. They won’t be playing with the same passion as they did against UNC when Boston College, losers of 4 straight, comes to town Wednesday night. This is a pesky BC team that only has one loss by more than 11 points this season, and that was against arguably the best team in the country in Virginia. Jim Christian is 22-6 ATS after having lost 4 or 5 of his last 6 games as the Eagles’ head coach. Take Boston College. |
|||||||
01-16-19 | Temple v. East Carolina +8.5 | Top | 85-74 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 57 m | Show |
7* AAC Game of the Week on East Carolina +8.5 The Key: ECU is playing too well to be catching 8.5 points at home to Temple tonight. The Pirates are 3-0 ATS in their last 3 games overall. They upset Cincinnati outright as 17.5-point home dogs, and if they can beat Cincinnati, they can certainly beat Temple. They also only lost by 6 as 15.5-point dogs at Memphis and by 11 as 16.5-point dogs at UCF. They have covered against 3 of the best teams in the conference. Temple is feeling a little too good about itself following a 73-69 home win over Houston, handing the Cougars their first loss of the season. They promptly laid an egg and needed OT to beat South Florida at home as 9-point favorites. And they will have to fight tooth and nail to win this game against ECU, let alone cover an 8.5-point spread. The Pirates are 8-2 SU & 8-2 ATS at home this year. The Pirates are 20-8 ATS in their last 28 home games overall. The home team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Take East Carolina. |
|||||||
01-15-19 | South Florida +13 v. Cincinnati | 74-82 | Win | 100 | 4 h 14 m | Show | |
6* AAC Game of the Day on South Florida +13 The Key: The South Florida Bulls have been flying under the radar all season. They are 12-4 SU & 12-4 ATS and now they are getting 13 points from Cincinnati. The Bulls are 5-0 ATS in road games this season, which includes only a 3-point loss at the buzzer at Tulsa as 5.5-point dogs and a 2-point loss at Temple in overtime as 9-point dogs. Cincinnati’s last three games show that they should not be favored by 13 here. They lost outright as 17.5-point favorites at ECU, needed OT to beat Tulsa as 6.5-point favorites, and only beat UConn by 2 as 11.5-point home favorites. The Bulls are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games against a team that wins better than 60% of their games. The Bulls are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 road games. The Bulls are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 games against a team with a winning record. The Bulls are 15-5-1 ATS in the last 21 meetings, and 9-3 ATS in their last 12 meetings in Cincinnati. Take South Florida. |
|||||||
01-15-19 | Florida +5 v. Mississippi State | Top | 68-71 | Win | 100 | 4 h 14 m | Show |
7* SEC Game of the Week on Florida +5 The Key: I think Mississippi State is a fraud this season. Florida is the better team in the Kenpom rankings, and I agree with it. A lot of it has to do with Florida playing a much tougher schedule as they’ve played the 19th-most difficult while Mississippi State is 68th. The Gators are 8-0 SU in their last 8 meetings with the Bulldogs and should not be 5-point underdogs in this matchup, let alone dogs at all. Take Florida. |
|||||||
01-14-19 | Wisconsin v. Maryland -3.5 | 60-64 | Win | 100 | 5 h 13 m | Show | |
6* Wisconsin/Maryland Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Maryland -3.5 The Key: The Maryland Terrapins are 8-2 SU & 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall. They are not being priced right in the market as they are better than they get credit for. The Badgers have had some really precarious results here of late. They lost at Western Kentucky, and they also lost at home to Minnesota and Purdue, going 1-3 SU & 1-3 ATS in their last 4 games. They just don’t have much talent outside Ethan Happ. The Badgers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning record. The Terrapins are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss. The Terrapins are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 Monday games. Take Maryland. |
|||||||
01-13-19 | East Carolina +17 v. UCF | 65-76 | Win | 100 | 4 h 53 m | Show | |
6* Sunday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on East Carolina +17 The Key: Just look at their last two games and it’s easy to see that East Carolina should not be getting 17 points against UCF today. The Pirates pulled the 73-71 upset over Cincinnati as 17.5-point underdogs. They also only lost 72-78 at Memphis as 15.5-point underdogs. And now they are catching too many points here again Sunday against a UCF team that is likely rusty after having over a week off prior to this game. Bets against favorites of 10 to 19.5 points who have made 55% or more of their shots in 2 straight games against an opponent that is coming off a game where they made 20% of their 3-point shots or worse are 24-6 ATS since 1997. Take East Carolina. |
|||||||
01-12-19 | Valparaiso v. Southern Illinois -6 | 65-61 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
6* Missouri Valley Game of the Day on Southern Illinois -6 The Key: Valparaiso will be without leading scorer Ryan Fazekas (12.7 PPG, 44% 3-pointers) for the first time this season after he suffered an ankle injury last game. After opening 3-0 in MVC play with wins over 3 of the worst teams in the conference, I think the Crusaders suffer their first loss here. They’ll be facing a Southern Illinois team that returned all 5 starters from last year. Leading scorer Armon Fletcher (12.8 PPG, 50% 3-pointers) has missed 8 games this season due to suspension, but he recently returned and will make the Salukis a formidable opponent moving forward. The Salukis are 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 games following an ATS loss. Take Southern Illinois. |
|||||||
01-12-19 | Rutgers v. Minnesota -10.5 | 70-88 | Win | 100 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
6* Big Ten Game of the Day on Minnesota -10.5 The Key: Rutgers leading scorer and rebounder Eugene Omoruyi (14.6 PPG, 7.5 RPG) has been ruled out for this game and will miss his first game this season. That makes the job a lot easier for Minnesota, which comes in with a chip on its shoulder from an upset home loss to Maryland last time out. Rutgers is in a huge letdown spot after beating ranked Ohio State at home on Wednesday. Minnesota is 3-0 SU & 2-1 ATS in its last 3 home meetings with Rutgers, winning those 3 games by 17.7 PPG. Expect another blowout victory in favor of the Gophers with Omoruyi out for Rutgers. Take Minnesota. |
|||||||
01-10-19 | Pepperdine v. Santa Clara -1.5 | 64-67 | Win | 100 | 9 h 50 m | Show | |
6* Thursday NCAAB *BAILOUT* on Santa Clara -1.5 The Key: Santa Clara has really been impressive of late and should be a bigger favorite over Pepperdine here. They are 6-1 SU & 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall. They upset USC 102-92 as 8.5-point dogs, upset Washington State 79-71 as 8-point dogs and upset San Diego 68-56 as 6-point dogs. Pepperdine is 0-5 in true road games this year with losses to likes of Northern Colorado, UC-Riverside, Southern Utah and Long Beach State. Santa Clara is way better than all 4 of those teams. Pepperdine is 2-14 ATS in its last 16 road games off 3 consecutive home games. The Broncos are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games. The Broncos are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings with the Waves. The Broncos are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home meetings with the Waves. Take Santa Clara. |
|||||||
01-09-19 | Iowa v. Northwestern -2.5 | 73-63 | Loss | -109 | 6 h 60 m | Show | |
6* Iowa/Northwestern Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Northwestern -2.5 The Key: The Iowa Hawkeyes have now trailed by at least 17 points at some point in 11 consecutive Big Ten road games. It’s a big reason why Iowa is just 1-11 ATS in all road games over the last 2 seasons. And the Hawkeyes are 9-24-1 ATS in their last 34 road games overall. The home team is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings in this series. Take Northwestern. |
|||||||
01-08-19 | Tennessee v. Missouri +9 | 87-63 | Loss | -115 | 3 h 15 m | Show | |
6* Tennessee/Missouri SEC *CA$H COW* on Missouri +9 The Key: Missouri is 7-1 at home this season. The Tigers are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 home games. They can hang with the Tennessee Vols, who are 3-1 on the road this season but only winning by 4.5 PPG on average. Three of those road games were on a neutral, and in their only true road game they won by 10 at Memphis. Missouri is better than Memphis. The Tigers are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games as a home underdog of 6.5 to 9 points. Take Missouri. |
|||||||
01-05-19 | Ole Miss v. Vanderbilt -1.5 | 81-71 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 44 m | Show | |
6* Ole Miss/Vanderbilt SEC *CA$H COW* on Vanderbilt -1.5 The Key: Vanderbilt is 8-1 at home this year and winning by 19.4 PPG on average. I like the price we are getting on the Commodores are only 1.5-point home favorites over Ole Miss here Saturday. Ole Miss has only play 2 true road games this year, losing by 7 at Butler and winning by 7 at Illinois State. They have played an easy schedule overall and are getting too much respect from oddsmakers now after their 10-2 start. The Commodores are 6-0 ATS in home games after having won 4 or 5 of tier last 6 games over the last 3 seasons. Vanderbilt is 15-5 ATS in its last 20 home games off 2 consecutive home wins by 10 points or more. The Rebels are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 SEC games. The Commodores are 39-19 ATS in their last 58 games following a win by more than 20 points. Take Vanderbilt. |

01-05-19 | Georgia +13.5 v. Tennessee | 50-96 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 44 m | Show | |
6* Georgia/Tennessee SEC *CA$H COW* on Georgia +13.5 The Key: The Georgia Bulldogs are improving rapidly under first-year head coach Tom Crean. They have gone 5-1 SU & 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games overall with their lone loss coming 74-76 to Arizona State as 3-point home dogs. They can hang with Tennessee, which remains without Lamonte Turner with a shoulder injury today. The Bulldogs are 6-0 ATS after playing a home game this season. Georgia is 24-12 ATS as an underdog over the last 3 years. The Bulldogs are 11-3 ATS against teams who commit 12 or fewer turnovers per game over the last 2 seasons. The Vols are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS win. The Bulldogs are 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings, consistently playing Tennessee tough year in and year out. Take Georgia. |

01-03-19 | Minnesota +9.5 v. Wisconsin | 59-52 | Win | 100 | 6 h 10 m | Show | |
6* Minnesota/Wisconsin Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Minnesota +9.5 The Key: The Minnesota Golden Gophers returned 5 starters this year and should be able to give Wisconsin a run for its money tonight. It’s a Wisconsin team that is coming off a bad 76-83 loss at Western Kentucky. Minnesota has already beaten Texas A&M, Washington, Oklahoma State and Nebraska with its only two losses coming on the road to both Boston College and Ohio State. This number is just a little too steep as Wisconsin would have to win by double-digits to cover. Wisconsin is 1-8 ATS off a game as a road favorite over the last 3 seasons. Take Minnesota. |
|||||||
01-02-19 | Tulsa +11 v. Houston | 56-74 | Loss | -112 | 4 h 50 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Tulsa +11 The Key: The Houston Cougars are 13-0 right now. Because they’re undefeated, they are squarely in the spotlight of the betting public. And they are consistently overvalued until they get beaten. I think that’s the case here as Houston is getting too much respect as a double-digit favorite against a good Tulsa team that is capable of giving them a game. Tulsa is 10-3 this season with its 3 losses all coming by 10 points or less all on the road to Nevada, Utah and Southern Illinois. They have quality wins over Oklahoma State, Kansas State and Dayton. The Golden Hurricane are 6-0 ATS against good defensive teams that allow 64 or fewer PPG over the last 2 seasons. Take Tulsa. |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Wichita State v. VCU -5.5 | 54-70 | Win | 109 | 3 h 6 m | Show | |
6* Saturday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on VCU -5.5 The Key: VCU is off back-to-back losses to Virginia and Charleston that will have them hungry for a victory. And they’ve had a whole week to get ready for Wichita State after playing on December 15th last. Wichita State only has two days to get ready for VCU after playing on Wednesday, December 19th last at home against Oral Roberts. That rest and preparation advantage makes VCU a strong play today. Wichita State has only played one true road game this season, and they lost that game handily 48-80 at Oklahoma as 6.5-point underdogs. VCU is 5-1 at home this year. Take VCU. |
|||||||
12-21-18 | Cal-Irvine +9 v. Butler | 54-71 | Loss | -105 | 2 h 29 m | Show | |
6* UC-Irvine/Butler NCAAB *CA$H COW* on UC-Irvine +9 The Key: UC-Irvine is off to an impressive 11-2 start to the season while upsetting both Texas A&M and St. Mary’s in true road games. It’s a veteran bunch that returned 5 starters and one that is capable of hanging with any team in the country. I think they will hang with Butler, which is coming off a lackluster 9-point home win over Presbyterian. The Bulldogs also have losses to Dayton and Saint Louis this season among their three losses in an 8-3 start. Irvine is 10-1 ATS in its last 11 road games. Take UC-Irvine. |
|||||||
12-19-18 | Rider v. Drake -4.5 | 58-76 | Win | 100 | 5 h 19 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *BLOWOUT* on Drake -4.5 The Key: The Drake Bulldogs are one of the most underrated teams in the entire country. They have gone 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall as the books have consistently missed their mark. Heck, they were leading against Iowa State deep into the second half just a few games ago to show their potential, and easily covered as 13.5-point dogs. Their only other loss came at Colorado. They have upset wins over Boise State and North Dakota State and sit at 7-2 SU on the season. Rider is just 4-4 SU & 2-6 ATS. They are 1-4 SU in true road games with all 4 losses by 14 points or more, and their only win coming as a favorite at lowly Wagner. The Broncs are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games overall. The Bulldogs are 19-7-1 ATS in their last 27 home games. Take Drake. |
|||||||
12-18-18 | South Dakota +22 v. Kansas | 53-89 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 35 m | Show | |
6* NCAAB Situational *SLAM DUNK* on South Dakota +22 The Key: Kansas is already going to be getting a lot of respect from oddsmakers due to their No. 1 ranking this season. But this isn’t the best team in the country. The Jayhawks have won 6 of their 9 games by single-digits this season, and 8 of their 9 wins have come by 16 points or fewer. And South Dakota is a good team that went 26-9 last year and returned 4 starters. They can hang with the Jayhawks. And I like fading Kansas in this awful spot. They are coming off a huge 74-71 home win over defending champion Villanova, and they have a huge game on deck this weekend at Arizona State. It’s a sandwich game that the Jayhawks won’t show up for. They recently lost star C Udoka Azubuike to an ankle injury and there’s no timetable for his return. That’s a big loss moving forward for this team. South Dakota is 8-0 ATS off a road win over the last 2 seasons, and 13-1 ATS off a road game over the last 2 years. Take South Dakota. |
|||||||
12-15-18 | Davidson v. Temple -3 | 75-77 | Loss | -106 | 4 h 4 m | Show | |
6* Davidson/Temple NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Temple -3 The Key: Davidson has played a much weaker schedule than Temple. In their toughest game, they lost by 21 to Purdue as 7.5-point underdogs on a neutral. And Purdue is a rebuilding team this year. Temple is battle-tested with true road games at Missouri, St. Joe’s and Villanova. They beat the first two, and took Villanova down to the wire. The Owls are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 neutral site games. Take Temple. |
|||||||
12-08-18 | Buffalo -7 v. St Bonaventure | 80-62 | Win | 100 | 3 h 25 m | Show | |
6* Saturday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Buffalo -7 The Key: The Buffalo Bulls are one of the best teams in the country that nobody knows about. They have moved up to No. 17 in the rankings this week and are off to an 8-0 start. And now they want some revenge on St. Bonaventure after losing 4 straight meetings in this series between these upstate New York rivals. Buffalo has gone on the road and beaten West Virginia 99-94 as 10.5-point dogs, Southern Illinois 62-53 as 4-point favorites, and San Francisco 85-81 as 4-point favorites. Those are 3 really good teams. St. Bonaventure is in a rebuilding year. The Bonnies are just 4-5 with their 4 wins coming against Jackson State, Canisius, Delaware State and Siena all at home. They have lost to Bucknell at home, as well as Niagara, Georgia State, Boise State and Akron on the road. Those last four losses all came by 8 points or more. That’s why I think Buffalo has no problem covering this 7-point spread today. The Bulls are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Bulls are 8-1 ATS in road games off a win by 15 points or more over the last 2 seasons. The Bonnies are 4-16 ATS in their last 20 home games after committing 8 or fewer turnovers in their previous game. Take Buffalo. |
|||||||
12-05-18 | Marshall -1 v. Duquesne | 82-93 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 2 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Marshall -1 The Key: There’s a lot to like about this Marshall team that returns 4 starters behind underrated head coach Dan D’Antonio. They are 5-2 this season with both of their losses coming on the road to very good Maryland and Ohio teams. They should be able to handle this Duquesne squad that returns just 2 starters and lost by 21 to Pitt and by 11 to Notre Dame, failing to cove the spread in both those games. Their 4 wins have all come at home against William & Mary, Illinois-Chicago, Redford and UMass-Lowell. Marshall is their stiffest competition at home thus far this season. The Thundering Herd are 15-3 ATS off a road loss over the last 3 seasons. Duquesne is 2-12 ATS in its last 14 home games with a total set of 160 or higher. Take Marshall. |
|||||||
12-04-18 | Providence v. Boston College -3.5 | 100-95 | Loss | -103 | 5 h 11 m | Show | |
6* Tuesday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Boston College -3.5 The Key: Boston College is a veteran team with 4 returning starters. That has helped the Eagles to a 6-1 start hit season that includes a 68-56 home win over a Minnesota team that returned all 5 starters. Providence only has 2 starters back this year and is 6-2. The six wins have come against weak competition, and they lost to Wichita State on a neutral and Michigan on a neutral by 19. This will be the first true road game of the season for Providence. The Friars are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 Tuesday games. The Friars are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 non-conference games. The home team is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings. The Friars are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road meetings with the Eagles. Take Boston College. |
|||||||
12-01-18 | Tulsa +7.5 v. Utah | 64-69 | Win | 100 | 4 h 38 m | Show | |
6* NCAAB Game of the Day on Tulsa +7.5 The Key: Utah is a rebuilding team with just one returning starter and they should not be favored by 7.5 over Tulsa today. Utah’s 3 wins have come against Maine, Grand Canyon and Miss Valley State. They lost by 9 at Minnesota, by 11 to Hawaii on a neutral and by 22 to Northwestern on a neutral. They clearly aren’t very good. Tulsa is 5-2 with its only losses coming as underdogs to Nevada and Southern Illinois. And they only lost by 7 to Nevada as 14-point dogs, and Nevada is unbeaten and one of the best teams in the country. Take Tulsa. |
|||||||
11-30-18 | Wisconsin v. Iowa +2 | 72-66 | Loss | -102 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
6* Wisconsin/Iowa Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Iowa +2 The Key: The Iowa Hawkeyes are off to a 6-0 start this season. They are one of the most improved teams in the Big Ten due to their 5 returning starters. They have already beaten Oregon and UConn in New York and they should be able to beat Wisconsin at home tonight. Iowa beat Wisconsin 85-67 as 2.5-point home favorites in their lone meeting last season. The Hawkeyes are 28-10 ATS in their last 38 home games against teams who force 12 or fewer turnovers per game. The underdog is 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings. Take Iowa. |
|||||||
11-28-18 | Rutgers +11.5 v. Miami-FL | 57-54 | Win | 100 | 6 h 48 m | Show | |
6* ACC/Big Ten Challenge *CA$H COW* on Rutgers +11.5 The Key: Rutgers is 4-1 this season with all 4 wins coming by double-digits. They should be able to hang with Miami, which has had some ugly showings. Miami only beat Bethune-Cookman 78-70 as 27-point home favorites. They only beat Fresno State 78-76 as 8-point neutral court favorites. And they lost to a bad Seton Hall team 81-83 as 4.5-point neutral court favorites. They should not be this heavily favored against Rutgers tonight. Miami is 5-17 ATS as a home favorite or PK over the last 3 seasons. The Scarlet Knights are 11-3 ATS in non-conference games over the last 3 seasons. The Hurricanes are 10-25 ATS in their last 35 home games. Miami is 4-10 ATS in its last 14 vs. Big Ten teams. Take Rutgers. |
|||||||
11-27-18 | Virginia Tech -4 v. Penn State | Top | 62-63 | Loss | -103 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
7* VA Tech/Penn State ESPN 2 *HEAVY HITTER* on Virginia Tech -4 The Key: Virginia Tech has been mighty impressive during its 5-0 SU & 5-0 ATS start this season. The Hokies have beaten Purdue along the way and should be able to handle another Big Ten opponent tonight in Penn State. The Nittany Lions have already lost two games. They were upset by DePaul on the road and also upset by Bradley on a neutral court. Their 3 wins have come against North Florida, Jacksonville State and Wright State. So Virginia Tech is by far the best opponent that the Nittany Lions will have faced. The Hokies are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 November games. The Hokies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. Big Ten teams. Take Virginia Tech. |
|||||||
11-21-18 | San Diego State v. Iowa State -3 | 57-87 | Win | 100 | 2 h 16 m | Show | |
6* SDSU/Iowa State NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Iowa State -3 The Key: Iowa State has 3 newcomers this season that have been their 3 best players. Marial Shayok is averaging 19.2 PPG and 7.2 RPG, Michael Jacobson is averaging 17.4 PPG and 7.2 RPG, and Taken Horton-Tucker is averaging 17.2 PPG and 6.4 RPG. This trio is flying under the radar. They have allowed the Cyclones to flourish this season despite all their injuries and suspensions to 3 returning starters and 1 other key player. They should handle this overmatched San Diego State squad today that lost by 26 to Duke and needed a late rally to beat Xavier. Iowa State thumped Illinois 84-68 after blowing a late lead against Arizona thus far. The Cyclones are 8-1 ATS in road games after having won 3 of their last 4 games over the last 3 seasons. Take Iowa State. |
|||||||
11-20-18 | Arizona +10 v. Gonzaga | Top | 74-91 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 39 m | Show |
7* Arizona/Gonzaga ESPN *BAILOUT* on Arizona +10 The Key: The Arizona Wildcats were impressive in their 71-66 win over Iowa State yesterday. They are now 4-0 SU & 3-1 ATS as head coach Sean Miller has done a great job of reloading with talent via transfers this season. They should be able to hang with Gonzaga, which barely beat Illinois 84-78 yesterday as 15.5-point favorites. I like the fact that Arizona played before Gonzaga yesterday, so they will be the more rested team, and they will have had the opportunity to watch the Zags. They should be able to stay within 10 points of the Bulldogs tonight. Arizona is 11-1 ATS in road games after covering 2 of their last 3 ATS over the last 3 seasons. Gonzaga is 0-7 ATS off 4 straight games where it made 47% of its shots or better over the last 2 years. The Wildcats are 10-0 ATS in their last 10 road games vs. teams who make 52% of their shots or better. Take Arizona. |
|||||||
11-14-18 | Seton Hall v. Nebraska -7.5 | 57-80 | Win | 100 | 5 h 4 m | Show | |
6* Seton Hall/Nebraska NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Nebraska -7.5 The Key: Nebraska is a legit contender to win the Big Ten this season. The Huskers went 22-11 last season and 13-5 in Big Ten play. And now they have 4 starters and each of their top 4 starters back from that squad, including James Palmer Jr. and his 17.2 PPG. Seton Hall is not going to be very good this season with the losses of 3 of their top 4 scorers in Khadeen Carrington, Angel Delgado and Desi Rodriquez, who combined to average 46.7 PPG. The loss of that trio is a huge one for this Pirates program, which is now in rebuilding mode. They return just one starters in Myles Powell. The Huskers are 15-2 ATS in their last 17 home games and 21-5 ATS in their last 26 games overall. Take Nebraska. |
|||||||
11-13-18 | Wisconsin +1 v. Xavier | 77-68 | Win | 100 | 5 h 39 m | Show | |
6* Wisconsin/Xavier NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Wisconsin +1 The Key: The Wisconsin Badgers return 95% of their scoring from a year ago and all 5 starters. They also have all of their key reserves back. They basically don’t lose anyone. Xavier loses its top 3 scorers from last season and 2 key reserves. The Musketeers are in trouble this season. That was evident last time out when they only beat Evansville by 6, an Evansville team that lost by 39 to Illinois the game prior. Take Wisconsin. |
|||||||
11-09-18 | Washington +10.5 v. Auburn | 66-88 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
6* Washington/Auburn Top 25 *CA$H COW* on Washington +10.5 The Key: The Washington Huskies should be one of the top teams in the Pac-12 this season. They went 21-13 and 10-8 in conference play last year in the first season under Mike Hopkins. And now they return all 5 starters from a team that suffers zero key losses from that team. I backed them against Western Kentucky in a 73-55 win as 8.5-point favorites in their opener. Now I’m taking them as double-digit underdogs here against Auburn. This game will be closer than the books are expecting. Take Washington. |
|||||||
11-09-18 | Arkansas v. Texas -6 | Top | 71-73 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 3 m | Show |
7* Arkansas/Texas ESPN *HEAVY HITTER* on Texas -6 The Key: The Texas Longhorns return 4 starters this season and should be one of the top teams in the loaded Big 12. The Arkansas Razorbacks lost 6 of their top 7 scorers from a year ago and are in rebuilding mode under Mike Anderson. I think it’s worth laying the 6 points with Texas here given that these programs are going in opposite directions heading into the season. Take Texas. |
|||||||
11-06-18 | Western Kentucky v. Washington -8.5 | 55-73 | Win | 100 | 8 h 39 m | Show | |
6* WKU/Washington ESPNU *BAILOUT* on Washington -8.5 The Key: The Washington Huskies should be one of the top teams in thePac-12 this season. They went 21-13 and 10-8 in conference play last year in the first season under Mike Hopkins. And now they return all 5 starters from that squad and suffer zero key losses. Look for them to get out of the gate quickly against Western Kentucky tonight. WKU only returns 2 starters, and they will be without Auburn transfer DeSean Murray, who is suspended to start the season. Lamonte Bearden (11.8 ppg LY) is one of the two returning starters, and he’s serving a 6-game suspension to start the year as well. Take Washington. |
|||||||
04-02-18 | Michigan v. Villanova -7 | Top | 62-79 | Win | 100 | 7 h 3 m | Show |
7* Michigan/Villanova NCAAB *HEAVY HITTER* on Villanova -7 The Key: The Villanova Wildcats have won every one of their NCAA Tournament games by 12 or more points. They have won by an average of nearly 18 points per game. Michigan is a good team, but no match for these Wildcats. The Wolverines lucked their way into the Championship Game by getting a huge break in the schedule, not once having to face a team seeded lower than 6th. Villanova is 10-1 ATS in its last 11 against Big Ten teams. Take Villanova. |
|||||||
03-25-18 | Duke v. Kansas +3.5 | Top | 81-85 | Win | 100 | 4 h 39 m | Show |
7* Duke/Kansas Elite 8 *HEAVY HITTER* on Kansas +3.5 The Key: Kansas should not be an underdog to Duke in the Elite 8. The Jayhawks have the home-court edge with this game being played in Omaha. And they are playing their best basketball of the season. The Jayhawks are 11-1 in their last 12 games overall. Azubuike is healthy and a double-double machine. And the Jayhawks are hitting on all cylinders offensively. The Blue Devils have had too easy of a path to get here with wins over Iona, Rhode Island and Syracuse. Kansas is 3-2 SU & 4-1 ATS in its last 5 meetings with Duke. Take Kansas. |
|||||||
03-24-18 | Florida State v. Michigan -4.5 | Top | 54-58 | Loss | -107 | 16 h 38 m | Show |
7* NCAA Tournament Game of the Year on Michigan -4.5 The Key: The Michigan Wolverines are on fire. They are 12-0 SU & 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games. I think the fact that Florida State has upset two straight teams in Xavier and Gonzaga has them getting too much respect from oddsmakers. Both Xavier and Gonzaga came into the tournament overrated in my opinion. Michigan remains severely underrated. The Wolverines should be more than 4.5-point favorites against this inexperienced FSU team that isn’t ready for this big of a stage with a trip to the Final Four on the line. Michigan’s suffocating defense will be the difference, and they are obviously feeling it offensively right now after hanging 99 points on Texas A&M on Thursday. Take Michigan. |
|||||||
03-23-18 | West Virginia v. Villanova -5 | Top | 78-90 | Win | 100 | 8 h 11 m | Show |
7* WVU/Villanova Sweet 16 *HEAVY HITTER* on Villanova -5 The Key: The Villanova Wildcats are the best team in the country. They don’t have any weaknesses. They will exploit the one weakness of West Virginia, which is their half court defense. The Wildcats won’t be phased by WVU’s press, especially with extra time to prepare for it. And they will take advantage of their opportunities when the Mountaineers are out of position going for too many steals. This is a Villanova team that doesn’t get enough credit for their offensive efficiency. They score 86.9 PPG and shoot 50.3% from the field, including 40.2% from 3-point range this season. On the other end, Villanova is elite defensively, and WVU struggles shooting the 3-ball. The Wildcats don’t give up anything easy. Villanova is 8-1 ATS in its last 9 neutral site games. The Wildcats are 50-21-1 ATS in their last 72 non-conference games. Take Villanova. |
|||||||
03-22-18 | Loyola-Chicago +1.5 v. Nevada | Top | 69-68 | Win | 100 | 5 h 5 m | Show |
7* Loyola/Nevada Sweet 16 *HEAVY HITTER* on Loyola-Chicago +1.5 The Key: Loyola is the more complete team in this matchup. They are by far the superior defensive team. I love the way they share the basketball on offense and have 3-point snipers all over the court. This has allowed them to upset both Miami and Tennessee to get here. And now they actually take a step down in class against Nevada, yet are still underdogs. Their magical run will continue with a win tonight. Loyola is 9-0 ATS after allowing 30 points or less in the first half of 2 straight games this season. Take Loyola-Chicago. |
|||||||
03-19-18 | Western Kentucky +5 v. USC | Top | 79-75 | Win | 100 | 10 h 3 m | Show |
7* Western Kentucky/USC NIT *BAILOUT* on Western Kentucky +5 The Key: USC is still bummed from being left out of the NCAA Tournament. That was evident in their NIT opener when they went through the motions and were fortunate to escape with a 103-98 home win over UNC-Asheville despite being 13.5-point favorites. Of course it doesn’t help that they are without their two best players in Bennie Boatwright (injury) and Cimenzie Metu, who has decided to skip the NIT to focus on the NBA Draft. Western Kentucky will likely pull the upset tonight. The Hilltoppers blitzed Boston College 79-62 at home in their NIT opener and are clearly happy to be here. The Hilltoppers are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 non-conference games. Western Kentucky is 11-4 ATS in its last 15 games vs. a team with a winning percentage of better than 60%. Take Western Kentucky. |
|||||||
03-18-18 | Texas A&M v. North Carolina -6 | Top | 86-65 | Loss | -114 | 10 h 52 m | Show |
7* Texas A&M/North Carolina *HEAVY HITTER* on North Carolina -6 The Key: The North Carolina Tar Heels have the big men to match Texas A&M. The Tar Heels are one of the best rebounding teams in the country. So the difference in this game is going to be the guard play. The Tar Heels have elite guards, while the Aggies have some of the worst guards in the tournament. They lost starting point guard Duane Wilson in mid-February and haven’t been the same team since. Roy Williams has never lost in the NCAA Tournament in their home state, and they’ll certainly have a big home-court edge again with this game being played in Charlotte. Texas A&M is 2-10 ATS vs. teams who are called for 17 or less fouls per game over the last 3 seasons. The Aggies are 1-9 ATS after having won 4 of their last 5 games over the last 2 seasons. The Tar Heels are 20-6-2 ATS in their last 28 vs. SEC teams. Take North Carolina. |
|||||||
03-17-18 | Houston v. Michigan -3 | Top | 63-64 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 4 m | Show |
7* Houston/Michigan *HEAVY HITTER* on Michigan -3 The Key: The Michigan Wolverines need to be bigger favorites today against the Houston Cougars. The Wolverines are playing as well as anyone in the country. They are 10-0 SU & 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall. Houston was fortunate to get by San Diego State on a buzzer-beater by a final of 67-65. Now they take a step up in class against arguably the best team they have faced all season. Michigan is 9-0 ATS vs. teams who make 8 or more 3-point shots per game this season. Take Michigan. |
|||||||
03-16-18 | Maryland-Baltimore County v. Virginia -20 | Top | 74-54 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 33 m | Show |
7* NCAAB First Round Game of the Year on Virginia -20 The Key: Virginia was the best team in college basketball all season. Now they will roll over Maryland-Baltimore County tonight as only 20-point favorites in their NCAA Tournament opener. The No. 1 seeds thus far are 2-0 ATS with both Kansas and Villanova covering. And the last 8 No. 1 seeds favored by 20 or less have now gone 8-0 ATS. Take Virginia. |
|||||||
03-16-18 | Kansas State +1 v. Creighton | 69-59 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
6* K-State/Creighton *CA$H COW* on Kansas State +1 The Key: Kansas State played in the best conference in the country in the Big 12. The Big 12 has shown well thus far in the NCAA Tournament, and I think the Wildcats will make easy work of the Creighton Bluejays tonight. Creighton took a turn for the worse once they lost Martin Krampelj to a season-ending ACL tear, their leading rebounder and best big man. The Bluejays have gone just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games overall. Creighton is 1-7 ATS in road games after a game with 5 or less offensive rebounds this season. The Bluejays are 0-6 ATS in road games when playing against a team with a winning record after 15 or more games this season. Creighton is 1-9-1 ATS in its last 11 NCAA Tournament games. Take Kansas State. |
|||||||
03-15-18 | San Diego State +4 v. Houston | Top | 65-67 | Win | 100 | 10 h 48 m | Show |
7* SDSU/Houston *HEAVY HITTER* on San Diego State +4 The Key: San Diego State is a team that nobody wants to face right now. The Aztecs have gone 9-0 SU & 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games overall. They beat Nevada twice by 5 at home and by 17 on a neutral. They really cruised through the Mountain West Tournament and are hitting their stride. Houston had a solid season, but I question how good the American Athletic really is. I believe the wrong team is favored in this matchup. The Aztecs are 8-0 ATS when playing their 3rd game in a week this season. SDSU is 7-0 ATS in its last 7 vs. a team with a winning record. The Cougars are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 vs. MWC teams. Take San Diego State. |

03-15-18 | Oklahoma v. Rhode Island -1 | 78-83 | Win | 100 | 2 h 23 m | Show | |
6* Oklahoma/Rhode Island *CA$H COW* on Rhode Island -1 The Key: Oklahoma doesn’t even belong in the NCAA Tournament. Once teams figured out that stopping Trae Young is all they had to do, the Sooners folded down the stretch. They went 2-8 SU in their final 10 games. Oklahoma is also just 3-13 ATS in its last 16 games. The Sooners really struggled on the road, going 0-9 SU & 0-9 ATS in their final 9 road games. Rhode Island is a great team at 25-7 with four of its seven losses coming by 4 points or less. The Rams are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games. The Sooners are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games. Oklahoma is 3-14 ATS in its last 17 games vs. a team with a winning record. Take Rhode Island. |

03-14-18 | BYU v. Stanford -2 | 83-86 | Win | 100 | 6 h 17 m | Show | |
6* BYU/Stanford NIT *CA$H COW* on Stanford -2 The Key: The Stanford Cardinal have had a tremendous home-court advantage down the stretch. They have gone 8-1 ATS in their last 9 home games. They are 7-1 SU in their last 8 home games with their only loss coming to Arizona by a more 2 points. BYU is just 8-17-2 ATS in its last 27 games vs. a team with a losing record. It’s a hangover spot for the Cougars after they lost by 20 to Gonzaga in the WCC Championship with a trip to the NCAA Tournament on the line. Take Stanford. |
|||||||
03-13-18 | Long Island +6 v. Radford | 61-71 | Loss | -103 | 5 h 53 m | Show | |
6* Long Island/Radford First Four *CA$H COW* on Long Island +6 The Key: Long Island closed the season on a 5-game winning streak. I watched most of their 71-61 win at Wagner as 9.5-point underdogs and came away very impressed. They are certainly a live underdog tonight. Joel Hernandez (20.9 PPG) and Raiquan Clark (17.4 PPG) combine to form a star duo that is capable of beating Radford here. The Blackbirds are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 games following a win. The Highlanders are only 3-8 ATS in their last 11 neutral site games. Take Long Island. |
|||||||
03-10-18 | Providence +13.5 v. Villanova | 66-76 | Win | 100 | 5 h 5 m | Show | |
6* Providence/Villanova Big East *CA$H COW* on Providence +13.5 The Key: Providence is playing its best basketball at the right time. On the bubble and likely out of the NCAA Tournament two weeks ago, the Friars have gone 4-1 SU & 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall with their only loss coming at Xavier by 10 as 11-point underdogs. They returned the favor with a 75-72 upset win over Xavier yesterday. And Providence beat this same Villanova team 76-71 as 9.5-point underdogs back on February 14th. They can certainly stay within 13.5 points in the rematch here tonight. Villanova is 0-6 ATS off 3 straight wins by 15 points or more over the last 2 seasons. They are now getting too much respect from the books and it’s time to fade them. Take Providence. |
|||||||
03-09-18 | West Virginia -2 v. Texas Tech | Top | 66-63 | Win | 100 | 8 h 46 m | Show |
7* Texas Tech/WVU Big 12 *HEAVY HITTER* on West Virginia -2 The Key: West Virginia’s style is built for tournament basketball. It’s tough to prepare for them on short rest, especially when playing on back-to-back days. That’s the task Texas Tech faces here. WVU was clearly the better team in the regular season with the Mountaineers only losing 71-72 on the road and winning 84-74 at home in their 2 meetings with the Red Raiders. WVU made easy work of Baylor in a 78-65 win yesterday, while Texas Tech struggled to put away a depleted Texas team 73-69. The Red Raiders are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games after 4 straight games where they forced 11 or fewer turnovers. Texas Tech is 7-20 ATS in its last 27 neutral site games, and 0-5-1 ATS in its last 6 games overall. The Mountaineers are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Take West Virginia. |
|||||||
03-09-18 | San Diego State v. Nevada -2.5 | 90-73 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 6 m | Show | |
6* SDSU/Nevada Mountain West *CA$H COW* on Nevada -2.5 The Key: Nevada wants revenge from a 74-79 road loss at San Diego State in the regular season finale. Well, the Wolf Pack had nothing to play for in that game as they already head the MWC wrapped up. They will be more hungry for a win this time around, and they will have the home-court edge being played in Las Vegas. SDSU is 3-14 ATS in its last 17 games off 3 consecutive covers as a favorite. SDSU is 0-6 ATS in road games off a game with 9 or less assists over the last 2 years. The Wolf Pack are 33-14-4 ATS in their last 51 games vs. a team with a winning record. The favorite is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take Nevada. |
|||||||
03-08-18 | South Carolina v. Arkansas -5 | 64-69 | Push | 0 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
6* South Carolina/Arkansas SEC Tournament *CA$H COW* on Arkansas -5 The Key: South Carolina won a grueling 85-84 battle with Ole Miss yesterday. Arkansas received a bye and will be fresh. That Arkansas press will really give the fatigued Gamecocks fits today. Arkansas beat South Carolina 81-65 at home as 7-point favorites in their lone regular season meeting. I think we are getting the Razorbacks at a great price at only -5 given the situation. South Carolina is 1-7 ATS after having won 4 or 5 of its last 6 games this season. Arkansas is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 neutral site games. The Razorbacks are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take Arkansas. |
|||||||
03-08-18 | Massachusetts v. George Mason -1.5 | Top | 75-80 | Win | 100 | 2 h 49 m | Show |
7* Atlantic 10 Tournament Game of the Year on George Mason PK The Key: George Mason is playing the better basketball than UMass right now and is primed for a run in the Atlantic 10 Tournament. George Mason has gone 5-2 SU in its last 7 games overall, and 7-2 ATS in its last 9 lined games. UMass is just 3-11 SU in its last 14 games. George Mason won both regular season meetings both home and away and has won 4 straight in this series overall. UMass is 1-10 ATS in its last 11 games as a neutral court dog of 3 points or less or PK. Take George Mason. |
|||||||
03-07-18 | DePaul v. Marquette -5.5 | Top | 69-72 | Loss | -104 | 10 h 55 m | Show |
7* Big East Game of the Month on Marquette -5.5 The Key: At 18-12 on the season, Marquette has played its way onto the bubble of the NCAA Tournament. They have done so by going 4-1 SU & 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall, which has included two wins over Creighton, an NCAA Tournament team. Now they should make easy work of DePaul like they did back on January 15th at home in a 70-52 victory, and not like they lost to them on the road on February 24th. They are now healthy with Markus Howard in the lineup and should roll here. DePaul is 1-8 ATS as a neutral court underdog or PK over the last 3 seasons. The Blue Demons are 6-21 ATS in their last 27 neutral site games overall. The Golden Eagles are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Take Marquette. |
|||||||
03-05-18 | Bowling Green +7 v. Central Michigan | 77-81 | Win | 100 | 5 h 3 m | Show | |
6* MAC Tournament *CA$H COW* on Bowling Green +7 The Key: The Bowling Green Falcons have a nice rest advantage here. Central Michigan had its game postponed on Friday and rescheduled for Saturday. The Chippewas won that game 84-71 over Western Michigan. But now they only have one day to get ready for Bowling Green, while the Falcons have two full days to get ready after losing to Buffalo on Friday. The Falcons will be playing with double revenge after losing their last two meetings with CMU by 6 on the road and 9 at home. Given the rest advantage, I expect them to stay within 7 points and possibly pull off the upset. Bowling Green is 7-0 ATS after failing to cover 3 of their last 4 against the spread over the last 2 seasons. The Falcons are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. a team with a winning record. Take Bowling Green. |
|||||||
03-04-18 | Michigan +4.5 v. Purdue | 75-66 | Win | 100 | 4 h 58 m | Show | |
6* Michigan/Purdue Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Michigan +4.5 The Key: It’s revenge time for the Michigan Wolverines. They lost by 1 point at home against Purdue and by 4 on the road in their two regular season meetings. They have been mighty impressive in the Big Ten Tournament thus far, crushing both Nebraska and Michigan State in their last two games. Purdue has struggled to get by both Rutgers and Penn State. The Wolverines are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 Sunday games. Michigan is 6-0 ATS in its last 6 games vs. a team with a winning percentage above 60%. The Wolverines are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 neutral site games. The Boilermakers are 1-10-1 ATS in their last 12 games overall. Take Michigan. |
|||||||
03-03-18 | Loyola Marymount v. Gonzaga -19 | Top | 69-83 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 17 m | Show |
7* WCC Tournament Game of the Year on Gonzaga -19 The Key: Gonzaga is currently on an 11-game winning streak. The Bulldogs take on Loyola-Marymount tonight in their WCC Tournament opener. It’s a team they have dominated of late by going 6-0-1 ATS in their last 7 matchups while winning by 28.3 PPG on average. They have won 44 of their last 47 meetings with this team. It will be yet another mismatch here tonight. Take Gonzaga. |
|||||||
03-03-18 | St Bonaventure -2 v. St. Louis | 64-56 | Win | 100 | 7 h 16 m | Show | |
6* Atlantic 10 *CA$H COW* on St. Bonaventure -2 The Key: St. Bonaventure has played its way into the NCAA Tournament by going 11-0 in its last 11 games overall to get to 23-6 on the season. But this is still a bubble team, so they focus will still be there tonight when the Bonnies travel to face Saint Louis. They already beat Saint Louis 79-56 at home in their first meeting on February 7th. The Bonnies are now 7-0 SU in their last 7 meetings with the Billikens. Chalk up win #8 in the row in this series tonight. Take St. Bonaventure. |
|||||||
03-02-18 | St. Peter's v. Rider -5.5 | 66-55 | Loss | -106 | 6 h 43 m | Show | |
6* Friday NCAAB *CA$H COW* on Rider -5.5 The Key: Rider is 22-8 this season and has the advantage of playing rested against a 13-17 St. Peters team that just played yesterday in a 60-58 victory over Monmouth. Rider has won each of its first two meetings with St. Peters this season and should be able to win going away today given the rest advantage. St. Peters is 1-7 ATS when playing its 3rd game in a week this season. Rider is 6-0 ATS after allowing 90 points or more over the last 2 seasons. Take Rider. |
|||||||
03-01-18 | Oregon State v. Washington -3 | Top | 77-79 | Loss | -113 | 9 h 26 m | Show |
7* Oregon State/Washington Pac-12 *BAILOUT* on Washington -3 The Key: The Washington Huskies are in need of a couple victories to close out the season if they want to make the NCAA Tournament. They are a bubble team right now but wins over Oregon State and Oregon at home to close out the season would help their chances. That would get them to 21-10 and 11-7 in league play, and the committee would almost certainly have to put them in. It starts with this home game against the Beavers. I think Oregon State is in a letdown spot after facing a brutal schedule of UCLA, USC, Arizona and Arizona State in their last 4 games. I also think Washington wants revenge from a 94-97 road loss at Oregon State in their first meeting. Washington has won 15 of its last 19 home meetings with Oregon State. The Huskies are 14-3 at home this year. Oregon State is 0-7 ATS when the total is 130 to 139.5 this season. The Beavers are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games following a win and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games. The Huskies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games. The Huskies are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings with Oregon State, including 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home meetings. Take Washington. |
|||||||
02-28-18 | Fordham v. George Washington -8 | 56-72 | Win | 100 | 3 h 26 m | Show | |
6* Wednesday NCAAB *BLOWOUT* on George Washington -8 The Key: George Washington is really playing some good basketball to close out the season. The Colonials are 4-2 SU & 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games with wins by 26, 24, 11 and 11 points. Their only losses both came on the road as underdogs. Now they’re at home tonight against a Fordham team that is just 9-19 on the season, including 1-11 SU & 4-8 ATS in all road games. The Rams are 1-9 in true road games with all 9 losses coming by 8 points or more. George Washington is 10-0 in its last 10 home meetings with Fordham. The Rams are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games overall. Take George Washington. |
|||||||
02-28-18 | Dayton v. La Salle -2.5 | Top | 53-71 | Win | 100 | 3 h 26 m | Show |
7* Atlantic 10 *HEAVY HITTER* on La Salle -2.5 The Key: La Salle is 9-4 at home this season while Dayton is just 2-11 in all road games. I think the price is right to pull the trigger on the Explorers at home tonight. They have won two of their last three with their only loss coming 93-95 (OT) against Rhode Island, the best team in the Atlantic 10. Dayton is just 1-10 ATS in its last 11 games overall. The Flyers are 1-8 ATS vs. teams who commit 12 or fewer turnovers per game this season. Dayton is 0-6 ATS in its last 6 road games and 0-7 ATS in its last 7 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The home team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Take La Salle. |
|||||||
02-27-18 | Oklahoma v. Baylor -3.5 | Top | 64-87 | Win | 102 | 7 h 4 m | Show |
7* Oklahoma/Baylor Big 12 *HEAVY HITTER* on Baylor -3.5 The Key: The Baylor Bears are one of the last four in teams on Joe Lunardi’s Bracketology. They are a bubble team and must win this game against Oklahoma to get in. They also lost in overtime at Oklahoma which will have them in revenge mode. Considering Oklahoma is 0-8 SU & 0-8 ATS in its last 8 road games, I like the Bears’ chances of getting a win and cover at home on Senior Night. Take Baylor. |
|||||||
02-26-18 | Texas Tech v. West Virginia -6.5 | Top | 74-84 | Win | 100 | 7 h 18 m | Show |
7* Texas Tech/West Virginia Big 12 *HEAVY HITTER* on West Virginia -6.5 The Key: I expect West Virginia to get a big win and cover here on Senior Night against the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Mountaineers will be hungry to avenge a 71-72 loss at Texas Tech in their first meeting this season. I think this is a flat spot for the Red Raiders, who had their Big 12 title hopes crushed with a 72-74 home loss to Kansas over the weekend. Now they have to try and get back up off the mat two days later, and I don’t see it happening for them. The Mountaineers are 5-0 in their last 5 home meetings with Texas Tech with each of the last four wins coming by 6 points or more. The Red Raiders are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following a SU loss. The Mountaineers are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS loss. Take West Virginia. |
|||||||
02-25-18 | Northwestern v. Iowa -3 | Top | 70-77 | Win | 100 | 7 h 12 m | Show |
7* Northwestern/Iowa Big Ten *HEAVY HITTER* on Iowa -3 The Key: Northwestern and Iowa have been two of the most disappointing teams not only in the Big Ten, but also in the country. But I look at Iowa and they keep fighting with a 2-point loss to Indiana and a 4-point loss to Minnesota. And there’s no doubt the Hawkeyes will be hungry for a win on Senior Day tonight to end their season on a winning note. I do question Northwestern’s motivation as they are just 15-15 this year despite returning almost everyone from their NCAA Tournament team last year. They are clearly just looking ahead to the Big Ten Tournament. The Wildcats are 0-5 SU & 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. They have lost three straight at home coming in, and their lost by 9 at Rutgers and by 16 at Maryland in their last two road games. They are now just 3-8 SU & 3-8 ATS in true road games this year. The Hawkeyes are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. The Wildcats are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 visits to Iowa City. Take Iowa. |
|||||||
02-24-18 | George Washington v. St. Louis -5.5 | 53-62 | Win | 100 | 12 h 46 m | Show | |
6* George Washington/Saint Louis Atlantic 10 *CA$H COW* on Saint Louis -5.5 The Key: The Saint Louis Billikens are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games overall. They have been very underrated when playing at home. They are 8-1 ATS in their last nine home games. They should be able to handle George Washington with ease at home Saturday. The Colonials are just 4-16-1 ATS in their last 21 road games. The Billikens are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games vs. a team with a losing record. Saint Louis is 6-0 SU & 4-2 ATS in its last 6 home meetings with GW. The Billikens are 5-0 ATS in their last five meetings with the Colonials. Take Saint Louis. |
|||||||
02-24-18 | Washington State v. Stanford -12.5 | 84-86 | Loss | -101 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
6* Washington State/Stanford Pac-12 *CA$H COW* on Stanford -12.5 The Key: The Stanford Cardinal are 6-1 SU and a perfect 7-0 ATS in their last 7 home games. Their only home loss was a 71-73 setback to Arizona as 6-point underdogs. Their last two home games have resulted in blowout wins over Washington by 16 and Oregon by 35. Now they should be able to handle Washington State, which is the second-worst team in the Pac-12 at 3-12 SU & 4-11 ATS in conference play this season. The Cardinal are 8-1 SU & 6-1-2 ATS in their last nine meetings with the Cougars with all eight wins coming by 9 points or more. Washington State is 1-9 in true road games this year and losing by 16.3 PPG. Take Stanford. |
|||||||
02-24-18 | Washington -4 v. California | 68-51 | Win | 100 | 8 h 16 m | Show | |
6* Washington/Cal Pac-12 *CA$H COW* on Washington -4 The Key: The Washington Huskies cannot afford to lose to Cal if they want to make the NCAA Tournament. They are currently on Joe Lunardi’s ‘first four out’ line and a loss to Cal would crush their chances. Look for them to played inspired basketball tonight. Cal is the worst team in the Pac-12 at 8-20 overall and 2-13 in conference play. The Huskies are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. The Golden Bears are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning percentage of better than 60%. Take Washington. |
|||||||
02-24-18 | Valparaiso v. Drake -5 | Top | 69-64 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 36 m | Show |
7* Missouri Valley Game of the Month on Drake -5 The Key: The Drake Bulldogs have 4 of 5 senior starters. That makes today even more special for them than most teams on Senior Day. Expect them to lay it all on the line to get a win against Valparaiso this afternoon. The Bulldogs are 10-2 SU & 7-2 ATS at home this year. The Crusaders are 2-12 in true road games. The Crusaders are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 road games. The Bulldogs are 15-5-1 ATS in they last 21 home games. Drake is 6-0 ATS in its last 6 Saturday games. The Bulldogs are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. Take Drake. |

02-22-18 | Gonzaga v. San Diego +12 | 77-72 | Win | 100 | 7 h 3 m | Show | |
6* WCC *CA$H COW* on San Diego +12 The Key: The San Diego Toreros have been one of the most improved teams in the nation this season. They are 17-11 and have clinched a winning record for only the 2nd time in the past 10 years. They have have some big performances against top teams, too. They only lost 62-65 as 8.5-point home underdogs to St. Mary’s. They beat BYU 75-62 as 3-point home underdogs last time out. They also only lost 59-69 as 19.5-point road underdogs at Gonzaga. Now they get to host the Zags this time and are catching 12 points in the rematch. I think this game will be closer than the books expect. The Bulldogs are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall. The Toreros are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning percentage of better than 60%. Take San Diego. |
|||||||
02-22-18 | Washington v. Stanford -5 | Top | 78-94 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show |
7* Pac-12 *HEAVY HITTER* on Stanford -5 The Key: Stanford already won 73-64 at Washington back on January 13th. With the way they are playing at home of late, they should have no problem beating the Huskies by 5-plus points at home in the rematch. The Cardinal are 5-1 SU & 6-0 ATS in their last 6 home games with their only loss coming to Arizona by a final of 71-73 as 6-point underdogs. They beat Oregon by 35, Oregon State by 9, Arizona State by 9, USC by 1 and UCLA by 8. Stanford is 6-0 ATS in home games when playing just its 2nd game in a week this season. The Cardinal are 9-1 ATS in home games when playing against a team with a winning record after 15-plus games over the last 2 seasons. Take Stanford. |
|||||||
02-21-18 | Iowa v. Minnesota -1.5 | 82-86 | Win | 100 | 7 h 5 m | Show | |
6* Iowa/Minnesota Big Ten *CA$H COW* on Minnesota -1.5 The Key: The Minnesota Golden Gophers have lost 9 straight coming in. But they showed some fight in their overtime loss at Wisconsin last time out. And I think they’ll put up a big effort at home on Senior Night to try and end this skid. That is what is perplexing about the skid is that the Gophers are loaded with seniors. They will be laying it all on the line to go out a winning in their final home game. And it should come pretty easy for them against an Iowa team that is 1-9 in true road games this season and losing by 14.1 PPG on average. The Hawkeyes are 7-21-1 ATS in their last 29 road games. The home team is 8-2 SU in the last 10 meetings. Take Minnesota. |
|||||||
02-21-18 | Duquesne +10.5 v. St Bonaventure | 67-73 | Win | 100 | 5 h 15 m | Show | |
6* Duquesne/St. Bonaventure Atlantic 10 *CA$H COW* on Duquesne +10.5 The Key: St. Bonaventure is in a big letdown spot following its upset home win over Rhode Island last time out, handing the Rams their first conference loss of the season. Now they are double-digit favorites against a feisty Duquesne team that will battle them for 40 minutes. Duquesne wants to avenge an 81-84 home loss to St. Bonaventure in their first meeting on February 3rd earlier this month. The Dukes are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings with the Bonnies, only losing by 3 and 4 points respectively in their last two trips to St. Bonaventure. The Bonnies are 6-18 ATS in their last 24 home games off an upset win over a conference opponent as an underdog. The Dukes are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Take Duquesne. |

7* NCAAB *BLOWOUT* Game of the Month on George Washington -3.5 The Key: The George Washington Colonials have won 3 of their last 4 in impressive fashion. They beat La Salle by 11 and VCU by 24 at home, while also winning on the road at UMass by 11. I like the price we are getting with the Colonials at home today against Richmond, which has lost three straight coming in to fall to 9-17 on the season. The Colonials will be hungry to avenge a 68-78 road loss at Richmond back on January 13th. Take George Washington. |
|||||||
02-20-18 | Northern Iowa v. Valparaiso -2.5 | Top | 68-63 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 37 m | Show |
7* Missouri Valley Game of the Month on Valparaiso -2.5 The Key: I love the price we are getting with Valparaiso as only a 2.5-point home favorite over Northern Iowa. Valpo will be looking to avenge a 76-81 road loss at Northern Iowa back on January 13th. They should get their revenge at home considering they are 10-3 at home this year and winning by 12.3 points per game on average. The Panthers are just 2-11 SU & 2-10 ATS in all road games. Northern Iowa is 0-8 ATS in true road games this season. The Panthers are 4-17-1 ATS in their last 22 road games dating ack further. Take Valparaiso. |

7* Miami/Notre Dame ACC *HEAVY HITTER* on Miami +4.5 The Key: The Miami Hurricanes will be hungry for a win tonight after their 18-5 start has turned into 18-8 following three consecutive losses. Now they’re up against a Notre Dame team they have had success against in going 2-1 SU & 2-1 ATS in the last three meetings. They are also 4-1 ATS in their last five trips to Notre Dame. The Hurricanes are 32-17 ATS in their last 49 games after failing to cover the spread in 3 or more consecutive games. Miami is 98-56 ATS in its last 154 games as a road underdog or PK, including 52-28 ATS in its last 80 games as a road dog of 6 points or less or PK. Take Miami. |

02-18-18 | Wichita State +7 v. Cincinnati | Top | 76-72 | Win | 100 | 4 h 5 m | Show |
7* Wichita State/Cincinnati AAC Game of the Month on Wichita State +7 The Key: It’s rare that you get the opportunity to back Wichita State as an underdog, let alone a 7-point dog. We’ll take advantage today and back the Shockers in a game that will clearly have them more motivated than Cincinnati. The Shockers must win this game if they want any chance of winning the American Athletic, while the Bearcats can afford a loss because they have a two-game lead.

6* Mountain West *CA$H COW* on Air Force +14 The Key: Air Force only lost by 6 at home to Boise State in their first meeting a few weeks ago. Now the Falcons will want to avenge that loss at 14-point road underdogs in the rematch. The Broncos are ripe for the picking after losing to Nevada at home, which was a loss that cost them a shot at the MWC title. They won’t be up for this game at all now. And the Broncos have tended to fade late in the season in recent years as they are only 1-10 ATS in their last 11 February games. Take Air Force. |
