#719 - Central Michigan +7 * 7 EST Again we have a team who can flat out score (86 ppg) on the road against a team with a losing record laying a big number in conference action. CMU has plenty of firepower on offense despite Buffalo’s 66 ppg allowed at home to hang within this number. CMU playing with double revenge as Buffalo swept them last year and Buffalo 2-4 SU their last 6 and CMU off back to back wins.

01-30-17 | Oklahoma State -1.5 v. Oklahoma | 68-66 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show | |
#525 - Okie State -1.5 *9 EST OU was buried against Florida this weekend and failed to reach 55 points on offense and they face the #1 offense in the Big 12 in Okie State who quite frankly simply has a better team, better players, and vastly more offense. Lon Kruger is rebuilding this season and while neither of these teams is going to contend for a Big 12 title, Okie State is 5-8 points better here. Okie State playing with 7-time revenge and have not beaten OU since Feb. of 2013. Think they want this one? The Cowboys lead the Big 12 in 3 pointers made, OU is second to last! I will take the more consistent scoring team who no doubt is highly motivated Play 1 Unit on Okie State |

01-29-17 | Illinois State -7 v. Evansville | 69-59 | Win | 100 | 6 h 48 m | Show | |
#863 - Illinois State -7 to 7.5 max *4 EST The Purple Aces are having issues scoring, 58 ppg their last 5, and they are playing the top team in the conference here. Illinois St is ALLOWING just 57 ppg their last 5! Need I say more. Evansville has dropped 7 straight games - and ISU is a 60% ATS cover team on the road this season so far.

01-29-17 | Knicks v. Hawks UNDER 211 | 139-142 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 33 m | Show | |
Under 211 Knicks and Hawks - *3:30 Est Amazingly the Over cashed in every single NBA game on Saturday, WOW. Atlanta is 8-2 on Unders the last 10 games, and play good defense at home and the Knicks offense is iffy at best and Rose is out for this game as well. I do not see this going much over 200. My power rating is 204.5, that is a huge overlay against the spread here. In the Knicks last 26 games, only 7 have went Over the total. Play 1 Unit on the Under |

01-28-17 | Kansas v. Kentucky -7 | 79-73 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 12 m | Show | |
#604 - Kentucky -7 *6:15 EST Kansas beat up and depleted in depth with recent suspensions and if they got waxed on the road at West Virginia what is Kentucky going to do to them. Not sold on Kansas being ranked this high, they exposed by a good team again. Kentucky has won their last 4 home games by 98 points, that is 24 ppg spread per game. While Kansas looked like a public take here, I will lay it and go against the grain. Kentucky has better athletes and are deeper and if Kansas gets in foul trouble Kentucky can pull away.

#539 - St. Bonaventure +6.5 *2 EST Not sold on Rhode Island laying this number. St. Bonny's has been a rock solid road team all season at 7-2 ATS and they are 9-1 ATS in this series, and have the better offense and Rhode Island stinks at the free throw line as well, just 58% in their last 5 games., This will be a close one.

#883 - Wisconsin GREEN BAY +7.5 *9 EST No idea why Oakland is laying his many as their home court is not overwhelming, as both these teams are explosive on offense and GB in their last 5 games is averaging 77 ppg, and Oakland just 71 a game in the same timeframe and are shooting just 21% from 3-point range. GB playing with double revenge after getting swept last year, allowing Oakland 111 points in both games. Oakland in a recent game lost to Wright State by 21 points and Green Bay beat that same by 17.

#513 - Golden State -10 *8 EST Curry back in home state, off a loss, Golden State clearly the better team and although the last game of a road trip, I have the feeling, based on numerous things that Charlotte gets crushed here and they play better defense than they did against Miami, which has been publicly stated.

01-25-17 | Indiana State v. Illinois State -13 | Top | 66-71 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 19 m | Show |
#552 - Illinois State -13 *8 EST The Top Team in the conference will smoke Indiana State tonight. We are catching them at home as well here which is a bonus, hell I would lay this on the road if I had to. Illinois State is the Top team in the conference at 8-0, they are the best defensive team in the conference and second on offense. They already beat this team on the road by 19 and are playing better now! In their last 5 games Illinois State is allowing just 56 ppg, that is 22 ppg better than Indiana State. Bear in mind Illinois State beat Wichita St in here by double digits. Play 2 Units on Illinois State |

01-24-17 | Auburn +9.5 v. South Carolina | 69-98 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 57 m | Show | |
#713 - Auburn +9.5 *6:30 EST Not sold on South Carolina laying this number as Auburn and Bruce Pearl are scoring some points right in, as I tend to look at recent 5 games trend this time of the season, and while the Tiger defense is not all that good, they are scoring damn near 80 ppg their last 5 games and South Carolina’s shooting average is 37% from the floor in their last 5 games, and Auburn does hit the defensive glass better than the Gamecocks who are off a 16 point beat down against Kentucky in their last game. I think this is lower scoring tonight and will bring the big points into play. Also PJ Dozier is very unlikely to play tonight for SC, and he averages 14 ppg! Play 1 Unit on Auburn

01-23-17 | NC State +16 v. Duke | 84-82 | Win | 100 | 19 h 23 m | Show | |
#519 - NC State +16 *7 EST This road trip is a 20 minute bus ride across town in Raleigh and I expect NC State to give 100%, and while it might not be enough, this is a huge number for Duke, who is featured a lot on Mondays and are 5-15 ATS their last 20 Monday games. Add in the fact Duke carries a premium number always, they have managed just 2 covers in their last 8 games and Grayson Allen is not 100% for this one. NC State is well coached and will bring all they have here, and bear in mind NC State has not lost by more than 10 points to Duke since March of 2015. Duke the better team, but in a rival game and not playing all that well, I will grab the big points and the Wolfpack here. Play 1 Unit on NC State |

01-22-17 | Virginia Tech +6 v. Clemson | 82-81 | Win | 100 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
Virginia Tech +6 Say what? Clemson has lost 6 straight, and yes 4 of those losses are to ranked teams, however this is too many points. I have these two teams even, and although the Hokies have not played all that well lately, I like them here as Clemson is off a 32 point beat down against Louisville and no doubt the Tigers confidence is shaken and they have no business laying this type of number. The Key in this game is rebounds as Tech has some good big guys that hit the boards and Clemson is a very undersized teams. That means cheap buckets inside favor VT here.

#311 / 312 - OVER 60 to 60.5 and take to 61 if need be by weekend - it will move. Atlanta / Green Bay *3 EST Yes it is high and for a reason. This is a no brainer even for the novice sports bettor. Two of the hottest QB’s in the game who can destroy an opponent with their arm, Aaron Rodgers is super human, Matty Ice is an MVP Player playing at his highest level ever and these 2 prolific QB's will trade punches all day long. The Green Bay defense will not matchup here, WR Jones is un-coverable, and we have already seen these 2 teams light it up once this year and both will go for broke all day long in order to get to the Super Bowl. Atlanta is LOADED and the best offense in football, their defense is below average and Green Bay damn near is the same story. Side play a close call here but the Total is a No Brainer.

01-21-17 | Northern Iowa v. Southern Illinois -3 | 58-57 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
#663 - Southern Illinois -3 *8 EST Tricked out line? Well I am buying it, as Northern Iowa is not a good team this season after massive losses to graduation. UNI is 3-13 ATS dating back to last season, and they have managed to score 57 ppg on the road this season playing a team with a winning record, who is 6-2 ATS their last 8 as a favorite and scores 75 ppg at home. NIU has won their last 2 games at home in a row, however they are a different animal on the road and they are catching a ticked off SIU team off an brutal OT loss at Drake, where they played badly. Good setup for a better team who is better than the spread here. Play 1 Unit on Southern Illinois |

South Dakota a better team and 14-3-1 ATS this season and this is a very tricked out line.

MSU is 5-1 on Overs on the road and 11-5 on Overs overall. Indiana State is 5-1 on Overs at home and 12-4 on Overs with one push on the year.

Good number here as Cleveland was stinking it up last week, but they got back on track on offense scoring 120 against the Kings and LeBron and company get complacent in certain scenario's, they will not here tonight and it should be a good game, as they have had the Warriors number.....no secret there.

Dallas -4 to 4.5 *4:40 EST Kick Dallas is a complete team. Good running game, the Best OL in football, QB Prescott is damn good, multiple weapons at WR and they have a defense that is going make the one dimensional offense of Green Bay earn every yard and point. You cannot win this late in the season with little or no running game, proven fact and Green Bay has none. Green Bay has been on a tear but running up wins in their crappy division with the Lions, Bears and Vikings has not impressed me. Their best WR Nelson is out for the game, their secondary is so/so and their defense is below average and Dallas have already manhandled the Packers on the road this year. Add in the fact the Giants imploded last week against Green Bay in a game they were dominating, dropped passes for TD's, giving up a hail Mary, turnovers, and again I am not impressed although we all agree Rodgers is hot and dangerous, you cannot beat Dallas at home who has rest with a make shift passing attack no matter who is QB. Dallas is poised for a Super Bowl this year guys, got to ride them here, as Green Bays demerits catch up o them here.

Pats / Texans UNDER 44.5 *8:15 EST I cannot lay double digits in a Playoff game, and New England will do most the scoring here, and I can easily see them having 30+ points and Houston will have some success on offense but not much. I took the over in their game last week and cashed for free against Oakland when the whole world was on the under in that one. The Pats scored 27 on them in September with Brissett at QB (Houston scored zero). The Pats will do what they have to do to win and that it is here and Bellichek will not run it up on his old fellow coach and buddy O’Brien here. With a couple of weeks off it will take the Pats a quarter to get back in sync. Oswiller running that offense against this Pats defense produced 0 points the last time, maybe they get 10 here - maybe. Pats have not been lighting it up against decent defenses either.

#647 - Wichita State -2.5 *8 EST The offense of of the Shockers here is the difference, averaging 82 ppg. The Shockers on road games are 3-0 SU this season and although they are a horrible Saturday ATS team, just 1-7 ATS their last 8 Saturday games, they are not as usual carrying a huge number in this one. The Redbirds are no doubt the second best team in the Mo Valley and spread it around well, but WSU is shooting 50% from the floor, 40% from 3 point range and scoring 87 ppg their last 5 games!

Their defense stinks, but their offense is a rock star. They have wins over Tampa, New Orleans, LA Rams, San Fran, Carolina, Lost to Philly who sucks, and lost to San Diego in here as well – just some of their last 10 games.

Also this is the Cavs 5th road game in a row since the 6th of this Month so I expect their defense to be weary here and allow the Kings, who are off a big win against Detroit, to score 100+ and for Cousins to continue his stellar play. Look for King James and company to put it up tonight on the scoreboard as they will be dialed in to improve their offense against a team giving up 107 ppg their last 5.

I took Creighton laying a small number Saturday and they were a no sweat winner, they simply have too much offense for Butler here on their home floor. Amazing their 7-footer Patton can also hit threes and also keep defenses honest by going low post and it opens up their perimeter game – very hard to defend. Butler is slow and methodical, but look for Creighton to dictate to their fast pace and for their backcourt to shine. Play 1 Unit on Creighton |

#151 - Clemson +6.5 to 7 *8 EST January 9, 2017 Revenge is not something to take lightly. Clemson was the better team last year and lost a tight one. Clemson has the best player on the field in QB Watson. His is countered with a true freshman who just lost his mentor when Kiffen was fired. Clemson is the only team in America that can test the Tide defense, and trust me, it is a good one without question. Losing Kiffen is a small hit at OC, but Alabama has time to adjust and his replacement is no stranger to the players, so I am not putting a ton of stock into that. Bottom Line - The ACC all Bowl season for the most part kicked ass and impressed and the SEC was a joke – Alabama had a patsy schedule based on who they played and how those teams fared in bowl games. You have the best player in college football at QB in my opinion, not LaMar Jackson, and that is Watson for Clemson with speed at RB to attack the edges and they have receivers that will test the secondary with success and the Tiger OL can manage the DL of Alabama. A mobile QB with all these weapons’ and a great OL is not something the Tide have seen all year. Yes Clemson was in some tight games this year, but in my opinion they were bored and complacent in many of those simply because they knew they were better, and in big spots they stepped up. They are not intimidated by Alabama, many other teams were. Clemson has the moxie and talent to win this game, and I will gladly the points.

While I usually see a line and stay away from it because it stinks to high heaven, the Red Storm have been playing some good ball, and the yearlong stats on off / def between these 2 is damn near even.

Miami has won with smoke and mirrors all year, and frankly in 8 of their wins, it could have gone either way. The Fish let Carson Palmer look like Joe Montana when they played them, they should have lost to the Browns, the list goes on and on, and frankly they are one the worst 10 win teams I have seen in years. The Steelers are a peak performance, avenging a 15 loss to the Dolphins, and bear in mind Big Ben went down to injury in that game, and Pittsburgh is playing the best football of anyone perhaps outside of Atlanta right now, and have weapons all over the place on offense. At home is worth 4 points in this game, cold weather and a team from South Beach with a career second string QB pulling the strings.

Oakland has a mammoth OL, a stud RB and two of the most dangerous weapons in the NFL at WR, and they are better than the Texans. Already beat them this year. Last year in the post season Kansas City shut out Houston in this same game and blew them away in here. Oswiller at QB is average at best to flat out bad at times, he was benched for a guy that was 3rd string last year! Houston’s defense will contain a pedestrian Houston attack on offense who tried to beat Tennessee last week leaving starters in through the 4th quarter and still could not win, and that was Matt Cassel pulling the strings for the Titans in that one. Whole world on Houston here, not me. Del Rio has all week for Cook to get coached up.

#538 - Loyola Chicago -2 *7 EST Northern Iowa was the once the class of this conference but have lost a ton to graduation and rank 235th in offense ranking at Ken Pom and on the road the Panthers numbers are horrific this year. They are scoring 53 PPG and Allowing 75 PPG! Wow. Loyola of Chicago is 10-5 SU, scoring 69 ppg at home and they are 3-1 SU and 3-1 ATS on their home floor. Looks too good to be true at a cheap number but I am drinking the kool aid on this one, and I will take the 4th ranked offense in the Mo Valley at home against a team who cannot score on the road and plays bad defense. NIU has dumped 4 in a row and after Loyola laid an egg in their last game at Illinois State and got blown out badly on their home floor, I expect them to bounce back tonight and bear in mind Illinois State is the 2nd best team in this conference behind Wichita State in my opinion.

#280 - Penn State +7 to 8 * 5 EST This line is jumping up, and after I have watched every bowl game, I have come to the conclusion that 2 conferences were over rated this year big time, the SEC and the PAC 12. The PAC 12 runner up got beat by 30 by Okie State and they have not looked good in any bowl game outside of Stanford playing an average North Carolina team. That said USC was the talk of the town and many broadcasters winning 6 straight with a new QB, Sam Darnold, who is a freshman with tons of promise and upside and no doubt he will play well here, but bottom line USC beat only 2 bowl teams out of the dismal PAC 12 in that 6 game run. Penn State on the other hand won the Big 10 Championship against a good Wisconsin team and managed 38 points in the title game against a great Badger defense, and that tells me QB McSorley and company for PSU can put points up here against a USC defense that is not as good as many Penn State has faced this year. The Lions are an unreal on defense away from home allowing 18 ppg, and they average more points on offense than USC, and quite frankly have the better coach and are playing the no respect card here and feel slighted they were left out of the final 4 as a conference champion and want to prove something. I think RB Barkley makes play action passing for Penn State click, they balance the offense more, and play physical and make this a hell of a game and can stay within the number and possibly win it SU. Play 1 Unit on Penn State BONUS PLAY Half Unit - Oklahoma -2.5 (Again the SEC is overrated outside of Alabama - No doubt OU has the best QB in the game, the best RB in the game, and while OU coach Bob Stoops is hit or miss in big games as a coach, OU has too many weapons on offense for Auburn to trade punches with). |

All that Venables staff (DC for Clemson) has to do is look at the Michigan game tape to see how the Wolverines shut OSU down, and QB Barrett is not a thrower and OSU simply cannot trade punches on the scoreboard. Clemson is loaded with speed, well coached, Watson is the best player on the field and while OSU is battle tested, their inexperience finally rears its ugly head here. Clemson has big play capability, and have waited all year, sometimes with complacency to rematch against Bama.

Washington went through a weak PAC 12 conference, struggled against Utah’s defense which is a shell of Alabama’s at best and they struggled against USC who has athletes, but still not of Bama’s caliber. Saban will be all business and while I respect Petersen’s talent as a coach, this is not the upset job he did on Oklahoma at Boise, this is the best team in the land, close to home and loaded at every skill position they have.

The Heisman curse, SEC team versus a lower tier school, and whenever Louisville came up against anyone outside of Florida State this year who was a good team they lost, including to SEC Kentucky of all people. Louisville does not match up well against physical teams and despite QB Jackson's ability, LSU has too much in the tank and their running game will take it right to the Cards. Remember a fading Houston team destroyed the Cards this season, and RB Guice ran for 8 yards a carry in the SEC! Also remember that LSU was the ONLY team in America this season to make Alabama sweat and with a new head coach who the players love, LSU should roll here with a more physical team and old school smash mouth running right at them.

It is also rumored that QB Tommy Armstrong if very iffy, and less than a 20% chance he plays because of a torn hamstring for this game and trust me, Nebraska’s backup could not start for any school in of the Top 5 conferences in the country. Mike Riley is a horrible coach, and frankly any team they faced that was ranked, Nebraska got waxed including a season ending blowout loss to an average Iowa team by 30 points. Ohio State beat Nebraska by 59 points gents. Tennessee is loaded and their speed, coaching, and QB Dobbs will absolutely destroy Nebraska who has no offensive firepower to counter punch what Dobbs and company will do on the scoreboard against a bad defense who cannot defend the read option, dual threat attack Tennessee has. Nebraska’s 3 best players out and 70% of their offense out. Need I say more, and remember I graduated from Nebraska, and am a Husker and follow this program as close as anyone in the business.

Arkansas off an embarrassing loss to a horrific Missouri team in their season finale, where they dominated an entire half, blew a huge lead and lost. VT has issues giving up big plays and they also have some ugly losses like Syracuse for instance and they are inconsistent.

Indiana did lose their head coach but worked their ass off to get to a bowl and are excited and motivated to play this game. Every sharp I know in Vegas including some max bets are on Indiana in this game and while we lost a point or point and half on a line drop because of the sharp move, I think Indiana wins this outright.

Line dropped to 9.5 in many places. Look Minny players going through the motions, limited practiced as they protested this bowl at one point, and fragile emotions and egos for the Gopher players and if they get smacked in the mouth early, they do not the QB or the offense to play from behind. Rough and tough Big 10 foe here who did not have 1 big win all year and Leach and his first [pick in the draft at player at QB, who wants to put on as show. Falk at QB is 71% in completion rate and over 4000 yards and one thing about Mike Leach, if he sees a weakness, he exploits it and drops the hammer, and will pile it on and let his start QB rack up he yards. Yeah Minny 23rd in defense in the NCAA, but Big 10 foes are different animal that a pass happy go for broke type offense that is quick paced.

They are looking to get to the post season healthy. That said they wont lay down either, but Detroit in the playoff fight and this is a must win for them. No doubt they are not the best team here but Stafford has had time to rest his finger, and they will expose a Dallas secondary here and put some points up. Detroit has had only 2 losses in 10 games, both to playoff teams and 1 of those losses was to the Giants whom beat the Boys twice. These 2 have played 3 times since 2011 and none of those games were further than 4 points apart. I think Detroit shows up here and they also have plenty of play-makers.

The Vandy offense scored 83 points in their last 2 games and have a banging RB in Webb. NC State ended the season with an upset of big brother North Carolina but struggled in ACC play in mid season.

I also am not sold on the Cavs even at home here, they needed OT to beat both Milwaukee and Brooklyn of all people in their last game. The defense of Golden State in their last 5 games is 10 ppg better than Cleveland and the Warriors have not lost a game in 24 days!

The MAC simply does not have the firepower to trade punches against high octane teams, and the speed of ODU is big factor here as well. All ODU wins by double digits this year and they are 9-3 on the year, that is impressive and Washington at QB has 28 TD passes and only 4 picks. Simply too much for EMU to contend with.

BYU is without their leader and key playmaker QB Hill, as he is hurt yet once again.

In my opinion this is the best team talent-wise, even though young, that coach Cal has had. You can throw the 59 ppg on defense allowed by the Cards out the window, as Kentucky can hit you about anywhere on offense and after a shootout with North Carolina over the weekend, I can assure you Coach Cal has stressed some defense in practice and will use the wide open approach on offense. The two leading scorers for Louisville average just 11 ppg, and I do not see how they trade punches on the scoreboard against KU even though their defense will slow them some.

Tulsa is an offensive machine and will have close to if not exceed 40 points here and Central Michigan is going to try and keep pace with a good 4 year starter at QB. Tulsa is hard to stop because of their balance, they run for 262 yards per game, and pass for 261, which is UNREAL balance and you simply cannot game plan to stop one or the other. CMU has been somewhat conservative this year, but I think they open up the playbook and pass a ton in this one and try to trade punches on the scoreboard because that is the ONLY way they have a chance to win and or even cover a big number.

New England is the best team in the NFL bar none and play well in big games. Denver is an above average team with no running game at all and a 2nd year QB at the helm that is not 100%. Denver tough at home, but the Pats are hot, Brady does not turn it over and I would not be surprised to see WR Floyd make a debut here.

Stafford the better QB here but he is hampered, and Manning has been hit and miss all year and turns it over.

#317 - Tennessee +5.5 Look Kansas City is a good team, but overrated and I live in KC. they get it done with defense and special teams, their offense is pedestrian at best. The temps in this game at going to be around 8 degrees Sunday and that will have an affect. Also with KC losing Derrick Johnson at LB, their #1 tackler on the team, they are VERY vulnerable to the run, and DeMarco Murray will get at least 25 touches Sunday and he will get his yards. Mobile QB Mariota may also be an issue for KC. This is a 3 point game one way or the other and no doubt low scoring. Play 1 Unit on Tennessee |

#329 - Pittsburgh -3 Square bet yes, but Cincy is done folks and the Steelers are 10-1 SU in their last 11 games in December, because they know when to turn it on. Big Ben tossed 3 TD's in the first game and none to WR Brown, and right now RB Bell is unstoppable. Andy Dalton is without weapons on offense and the Steelers are in a dogfight with the Ravens for the Playoffs and this division and they know the Ravens have a high chance of beating Philly this weekend so they will be ready for this one. The Bengals always play Pitt tough no doubt, but they are limited on offense and their OL is suspect. Play 1 Unit on Steelers |

12-18-16 | Titans v. Chiefs UNDER 41.5 | Top | 19-17 | Win | 100 | 20 h 40 m | Show |
UNDER 41.5 Kansas City / Tennessee Weather is a huge factor here in Kansas City. I live here, and the weather is almost uninhabitable outside and will be so on Sunday. Wind Chills below Zero, ice, snow, and fans dumping tickets like crazy. Arrowhead will be half full. Watching the Northwest Missouri State Game in Kansas City on Saturday with 2 highly offensive teams (Division II National Championship) Neither team can function nor score, simply because the weather and extreme cold limits range of motion, takes away the throwing game for the most part and reduces speed. A slick field, frozen grass and very hard to catch balls, it is simply the laws of nature that will make points a premium in this game. Plus Tennessee will pound RB Murray all day, and we all know Andy Reid is a run first, short controlled passes type of play caller, both schemes eat clock. Play 2 Units on the UNDER |

OVER 58 So. Miss / ULL
Well we all know unless you are living under a rock, Southern Miss has NO defense and they also have a stud QB in Mullins who can put up points and is 100% healthy, and the Cajuns RB McGuire is healthy and should run all over the porous Eagle defense. Cajuns QB Jennings likes to throw picks but he is also effective with over 2000 yards passing and is a dual threat. Inside the dome on a fast track in New Orleans.

Miami -2.5 (NFL)
While QB Matt Moore gets the start, I will take him over Bryce Petty any day of the week, he is a veteran QB with starts under his belt. If this line was over 3.5 or higher I would take the Jets in what should be a low scoring game, but QB Petty without Forte and Marshall at his disposal in this game and Miami playing lights out for a Playoff berth, I cannot fade them in this spot. Weather is supposed to be 40 degrees and raining, and Miami just ruins the ball better, and despite a come from behind 17-3 halftime deficit win for the Jets at the hapless 49ers last week, I am taking the Fish to cover the number.

Houston -3.5
Well let’s win one for the new gipper (Major Applewhite, previously offensive coordinator here, steps up) here as Houston’s Herman left for Texas. Lest we forget this team destroyed Oklahoma to open the season and they also pounded Louisville late in the year and a lot of hits and misses during the year. Applewhite was calling all the plays so no drop off on offense. Ward is a Stud at QB and will want to make a big splash in his last game, and no Mountain West QB SDSU has played compares to his talents, and SDSU while a good team, steps up way in class here and despite Rocky Long being a solid head coach, Houston has way too many weapons on offense and should be able to contain the Aztec run attack with the nation’s 3rd ranked rush defense allowing less than 98 yards per game on the ground.

#715 - Georgia Southern -1.5 * 7 EST Florida International has won 3 games this year and honestly 2 of those wins are against schools I have never heard of and I have been capping games for 25 years! GS is a good team with all 5 starters returning from last year, they gave NC State all they wanted in a surprising and impressive 2 point loss and they are a better than average spread team at 15-5 ATS their last 20. They have a superior backcourt production advantage here. Less than a layup - I will take em as numerous sharps hit this in Vegas today and the line will climb, get on it.

Ravens +6.5 No Gronk is gonna hurt this offense. Speak of the offense of the Pats, the Ravens have the overall #1 defense in the NFL and most important the #1 scoring defense as well. Flacco off his best game of the year, and the Ravens in a dogfight for the Playoffs and will be dialed in like none other tonight. Cold weather will hold the score down in my opinion and with fact New England has to redesign the offense and cannot use Gronk as a weapon in the red zone or use him as decoy, it makes them human, and the Raven defense will get after Brady and a sore knee tonight and make this a game.

#109 - Houston +6.5 Sharps all over this one in Vegas and I agree, without the Andrew Luck factor, quite frankly the Colts are a below average team. Not sold on a blowout of the Jets because the jets have NO QB at all, (I was all over Indy on MNF), but the defense of the Texans should provide issues and quite frankly Indy should not belaying 6 to any team at .500 or better, they are just not that good. All out game for both sides with division lead on the line (3-way tie right now with Tenn.). Too many points.

Army +6 Navy fully healthy would roll in this game. They are down to 3rd string QB who looked lost against Temple and also down one of their stud RB’s and they are off a devastating loss and a conference title lost all in one game where Temple just beat the hell out of them. Army has had 3 weeks off to prepare and a long term frustration in not getting over of rival Navy, and with their triple option attack and Navy’s bad defense, who will be on the field more because the offense is in idle with injuries, Army gets the cover and an outright win would not shock me.

KC -3 Disregarding the Thanksgiving games, the home team is 8-3-1 ATS in the Thursday night games for good reason. 2 days of prep and then travel and Oakland off a huge game on Sunday and now travel and the weather is going to be a huge factor, Artic Blast hitting KC (where I live) on Wednesday and Thursday and expect temps below 30 degrees at game time. KC defense vastly better and know how to shut down the potent Oakland attack, already beat them by 16 in the last game and only laying 3 since Vegas wants split action here. KC getting it done with WR Hill making huge plays, defense making huge plays, QB Smith taking care of the ball and TE Kelce a 1 man wrecking crew and RB Ware balancing offense. KC is 20-4 SU their last 24 games and at Arrowhead in this cold, a clear 3 point home field advantage as well. Play 1 Unit on Kansas City |

Looks like a set up line and ect, but Nebraska cannot get over on Creighton. Watson and Foster in the backcourt for Creighton one of the Top 3 backcourts in the nation.

One thing about the Colts, they beat teams they should beat, and lose to ones they should lose to. A Healthy WR Unit, RB unit and QB for the Colts versus human turnover machine QB Ryan Fitzpatrick and company at the Jets who are a total mess. Jets 1-4 SU at home and a total mess at QB.
