However, a rough early tournament gave them a big loss to Michigan and they went on to lose five of their next six games. They have also lost their last two games, both conference games to start 0-2 in ACC play. The Tar Heels are also bad at covering, going 1-7 their last eight games.

Illinois State has not had a very good non-conference schedule, going just 5-7 S/U and 4-7 ATS. The Redbirds have failed to cover their last three games and five of their last seven games. They are 5-1 S/U at home, but that has come against the likes of Illinois-Springfield, Morehead and Belmont. They haven't played anyone of this caliber at home. I'm taking the visitor here on Tuesday. Play Northern Iowa. |

It was the team's second straight road win and cover. Northeastern is 4-2 S/U and AS on the road this year. The James Madison Dukes are 7-5 S/U and 5-6 ATS on the season. The Dukes lost their conference opener at home to Hofstra, 76-82, failing to cover the 2 1/5 point dog line. The line in this game has Northeastern around 2 1/2 to 3 point favorite. My own line has them closer to seven points. I will take the road team here on Monday. Play Northeastern. |
|||||||
12-30-19 | Hofstra +1 v. Towson | 75-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |

The Towson Tigers lost their conference opener at home to Northeastern, 45-61, failing to cover the 2-point line as a favorite. The Tigers are 1-4 ATS their last five games and 2-3 S/U. This game is a pick, but I have the road team favored in this one. I'm taking the road team. Play Hofstra. |

12-28-19 | Northern Arizona +6.5 v. Montana | 72-79 | Loss | -117 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
Big Sky Conference action starts today as Northern Arizona takes on Montana in both team's conference openers. NAU finsihed their non-con schedule 6-3 S/U and 5-2 ATS. They did beat a good South Dakota team, 76-72 and a good Nebraska-Ohaha club, 73-65. They have now covered four straight games. Montana finished their non-con schedule at 4-7 S/U and 3-6 ATS. The Grizzlies lost their last two games to Nebraska-Ohaha and Oregon, failing to cover either game. This team was not competitive in their games vs Stanford, Arkansas, Washington and Oregon, losing by double digits in all those games. NAU getting 6.5-points here tonight which is a bit too high according to my numbers. I'll take the points with Northern Arizona. |

12-28-19 | NC-Wilmington v. Delaware -12 | Top | 68-82 | Win | 100 | 7 h 27 m | Show |
Colonial Athletic Association conference play begins today for both these teams as UNC Wilmington travels to Delaware. The UNCW Seahawks finished their non-con schedule with a 5-8 S/U and 4-5 ATS record. Three of those wins came against Div II teams Johnson & Wales, North Carolina Weslyan and Emory & Henry. Not exactly a great resume of wins there. They have covered just one of their last five games heading into today's contest. They will face a very good Blue Hen's squad that was 10-3 in their non-con games with a 8-4 spread record. Delaware is one of the best in this conference. They started the season 9-0 before dropping three of their last four games. I expect this team to be at the top come conference tourney time. I'll lay the points with them here today. Play Delaware. |

12-28-19 | CS-Northridge +9 v. Boise State | 72-103 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 27 m | Show | |
Big West conference Cal Northridge Matadors travel to Idaho to take on the Mountain West's Boise State Broncos this evening. Northridge not having a good non-con result thus far at just 3-10 S/U and 6-6 ATS. The Matadors started the season 0-5 ATS, but since then they have covered six of their next seven games. The good news for CSUN is that they get back their most dynamic scorer in Lamine Diane. Diane returned after coming off an injury to score 30 points in the team's last game vs Pacific. That will be a huge boost to this Matadors' team. Boise State plays its last non-con game here today. The Broncos are 8-5 S/U and 8-4 ATS thus far. They are coming off a win over Texas El Paso on Christmas day, 72-67. Boise looks to content for the Mountain West title this year as they have a decent team. For me, with Diane back for CSUN, I think this is too many points to give them tonight. Play Cal State Northridge. |

12-28-19 | Eastern Washington -2 v. Weber State | 79-77 | Push | 0 | 4 h 27 m | Show | |
Big Sky conference game here today features Eastern Washington at Weber State. Eastern Washington Eagles are 7-4 S/U and 7-2 ATS on the season. The rest of the way it's all Big Sky for the Eagles. They are coming off a big loss, but it was to powerhouse Gonzaga, 77-112. It was their first spread loss in their last seven games. Weber State is just 4-7 S/U and 2-6 ATS as they head into conference play. The Wildcats are off a loss to instate rival BYU, 61-91. It was their 2nd spread loss in a row. Two of the cats four wins have come against Div II opponents West Coast Baptist and Bethesda University. They also scored just 34 points at their other instate rival Utah back in their opening game. This Weber State team is not very goo while Eastern Washington looks to be one of the top Big Sky teams this year. Play Eastern Washington. |

12-25-19 | Houston v. Washington +1 | Top | 75-71 | Loss | -107 | 9 h 22 m | Show |

The Cougars are 9-3 S/U and 6-6 ATS on the season. The Cougars are 2-0 both S/U and ATS in the Diamondhead Classic, beating by Portland 81-56 and then Georgia Tech, 70-59. Washington comes in ranked 21st in the country. The Huskies beat Ball State in the opener, 85-64 and then beat host Hawaii, 72-61, covering both games. This should be a great finish to the Classic tonight. I'm taking the Huskies here as either pick'em or plus 1. Play Washington. |

12-21-19 | Weber State v. BYU -17.5 | 61-91 | Win | 100 | 8 h 23 m | Show | |
Battle of the Beehive State here this evening as BYU takes on Weber State from Provo, UT. Weber not having a very good season at just 4-6 S/U and 2-5 ATS. These teams didn't meet in their recent Beehive Tourney where Weber lost to Utah U, 49-60. They did come back with a win over Bethesda last time out, 109-62. This Weber team has wins over Bethesda, Westcliff and West Coast Baptist, not exactly top notch talent there. BYU is 9-4 S/U and 7-5 ATS. The Cougars have won three straight games both S/U and ATS. In the Beehive tourney they beat Utah State, 68-64 as a 1-point dog. That was a week ago, as the Cougars are well rested for today's contest. This is a total mismatch as BYU should easily win this game and cover the 17.5 point spread. My own numbers have BYU well over a 20 point favorite in this one. Play BYU. |

12-21-19 | Cincinnati v. Iowa -2.5 | 70-77 | Win | 100 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
Chicago Legends Classic Tourney here today from Chicago, Illinois as Cincinnati takes on Iowa. Cincinnati is 7-4 S/U and 3-8 ATS on the season. The Bearcats are coming off a win over Tennessee at home, 78-66, covering the 1.5-point dog line. The Cats haven't covered much this year. In fact that was just the second time in their last nine games. Iowa has won two straight games and three of their last four. They have covered two straight and three of four. This is a good covering team in the Hawkeyes. Iowa just a 3-point favorite here this evening. My number has Iowa up around 7 to 8 points here tonight. I'm taking IOWA. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Oregon State -6 v. Texas A&M | Top | 49-64 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
Oregon State not getting a lot of love as they are not ranked despite a nice 9-1 S/U record. They have also covered eight of 10 spreads, so they are doing well for the bettors too. The Beavers haven't lost since Nov 12 to Oklahoma. Since then they are 7-0 S/U and 6-1 ATS. They are off a win at Texas San Antonio, 88-78 as a 8.5-point favorite. This team can score points, evidenced by their 80+ points in five straight games and six of the last seven. Texas A&M is 4-5 S/U and 0-9 ATS on the season. The Aggies have yet to cover a spread, which is horrible. They finally snapped a four-game losing streak though with a win over Texas A&M Corpus Christi, 63-60. Unlike OSU, this team doesn't score much, 63 or fewer points in eight straight. Big mismatch in my opinion here tonight. Oregon State is a 6.5-point road favorite here tonight. My own numbers have OSU over a double-digit favorite tonight. I'm taking the Beavers tonight. Play Oregon State. |

12-21-19 | Dayton -5 v. Colorado | 76-78 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 52 m | Show | |
Chicago Legends Classic tourney action today from Chicago Illinois has Dayton taking on Colorado. Dayton ranked 13th in country with a nifty 9-1 S/U record and 7-3 ATS mark. The Flyers only loss this season was an OT setback to Kansas back on Nov 27th, 84-90 as a 4-point dog. The Flyers did fail to cover last time out though as a 16-point chalk, beating North Texas, 71-58. Colorado started the season nicely, going 7-0 S/U. However, since then they are just 2-3 S/U, though they have won their last two games over Colorado State and Prairie View A&M. The Buffs got beat badly by Kansas (similar opponent), 58-72, failing to cover the 10-point line. Dayton favored by 5.5-points here today. My own line has the Flyers at least 3-points more than that. I like Dayton here today. Play Dayton. |

12-21-19 | Kentucky v. Ohio State -2.5 | 65-71 | Win | 100 | 5 h 12 m | Show | |
The Marquee matchup of the day in college basketball comes in the CBS Sports Classic tournament in Las Vegas, NV. No 6 Kentucky takes on No 5 Ohio State. The Buckeyes find themselves a 3 to 4 point favorite in this matchup. Ohio State is 10-1 S/U and 9-2 ATS this season. The Buckeyes only loss came just last week on Dec 15 when they lost at Minnesota, 71-84 as a 7.5 point road favorite. The Buckeyes did take it out on SE Missouri Stat the next game, beating them by 32 points, 80-48 and covering the 29-point line. Kentucky is 8-2 S/U and 3-6 ATS this season. The Wildcats are coming off a loss on a neutral court to Utah, 66-69 as a 11-point favorite. I had Utah in that game. The Cats are not a good covering team, that is the difference between them and Ohio State. This is going to be a great game and likely a close one. But I like a team that proves they can cover spreads and for me, that's Ohio State. |
|||||||
12-19-19 | Appalachian State +5 v. South Alabama | 81-71 | Win | 100 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
Two 6-4 teams matchup here tonight as South Alabama takes on Appalachian State. The App State Mountaineers are coming off a road win at Howard, 81-59. That was their third cover in a row and fourth in their last five games. South Alabama Jaguars are off a home win over Alabama A&M, 89-79 but failing to cover their 18.5-point favorite. It was their third game in a row without a cover. My own line has this game very close to a pick'em. For me, I like App State to even win this game outright. Play Appalachian State. |

12-19-19 | Maryland -6 v. Seton Hall | 48-52 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |

The Terps are 6 1/2 point road favorites here tonight. My own numbers have Maryland a bigger favorite here tonight. I like the Terps on the road tonight. Play Maryland. |

St Joe's not having such a good season at just 2-9 S/U and 4-6 ATS. The Hawks have lost eight straight games and covered just one of their last six. The Hawks are off a 47-point loss at Temple, 61-108. Still, despite what I see as a big edge to the visitor, they are just a 1 to 2 point favorite here tonight. My own number has them well above that. Take William & Mary. |

12-18-19 | Kentucky v. Utah +11.5 | 66-69 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show | |
Las Vegas, NV is the venue for tonight's game between two eight-win game teams. No 6 ranked Kentucky will take on 8-1 Utah. Kentucky has won six straight games since their one loss back on Nov 12 to Evansville, 64-67 as a 25-point dog. The Wildcats should be a perfect 11-0 and could be ranked No 1 if not for a loss to a 25-point dog. The Cats aren't the best covering team though, with a 3-5-1 ATS mark. In fact, after starting the season 2-0 ATS they are just 1-5-1 since. Utah's lone loss this year has come at the hands of Coastal Carolina of all teams. The Utes lost that game on a neutral court back on Nov 21st as a 4 1/2 point chalk. They have covered three straight games. One of my lines has Utah just a 3-point dog here tonight, well below the current 11-point dog line. I'm going too take the points with the dog here tonight. Play Utah. |
|||||||
12-18-19 | Cal Poly v. CS Sacramento -10 | 56-57 | Loss | -112 | 10 h 2 m | Show | |
Cal Poly Mustangs brings a 2-8 record into Sacramento to play the Hornets, 6-2. The Hornets had a very good season, going 6-2 S/U on the season and covering all six of their posted lines. This also has been accomplished with just one of those lines at home this year. Cal Poly has just two wins and they are off a drubbing at the hands of Fresno State, 37-62. Fresno not a good team this year so this games shows us how bad Cal Poly is this year. I like Sac State quite a bit tonight. Play Sacramento State. |

St Mary's is 9-2 S/U and 4-7 ATS on the season. The Gaels are off a win over Cal, 89-77, but lost the game before on a neutral court to Dayton, 68-78. The Gaels have covered just one of their last four and two of six. Arizona State has won five straight games after their last win over Georgia, 79-59 as a 4.5-point favorite. The Sun Devils are 5-0 S/U at home and like I stated, they will have a slight home advantage here tonight. I think ASU should be a slight favorite here tonight, but they are getting 1 to 2 points. I'll take that with a very good ASU team. Play Arizona State. |

The Golden Griffins had covered six straight games until last time out where they beat Holy Cross 80-72, but failed to cover the 11-point line. Still, this is a very good covering team that is also 4-1 ATS on the road this year. Buffalo is 6-4 S/U and 3-6 ATS on the season. The Bulls are off a home loss to Army, 76-89 as a 15.5-point favorite. The Bulls are installed as a 8 to 9 point chalk here today. I feel that is way too many points to give a good covering team like Canisius. One of my lines have this closer to Buffalo minus two points. I'm taking the visitor here, Take Canisius. |

Drake comes into tonight's contest a large dog, despite their 8-2 record they aren't getting much love from the oddsmaker here in this one. Looking at their games, tehir one real tough game is a loss at Cincinnati, 59-81 as a 11.5-point dog. Their other loss came in a neutral site tourney game to Miami Ohio, 59-67 as a 4.5-point favorite. Dayton meanwhile, is 7-1 S/u and 6-2 ATS and has played plenty of tough competition.

St Mary's has played predominately at home, with just one road game vs Wisconsin and one tournament game thus far. Their only loss came in a home shocker to Winthrop, 59-61 in which they were a 17 1/2 point favorite. This team hasn't covered spreads well though, going just 3-6.

Fresno is so bad that they game a 0-7 Cal Northridge team its first win of the season, 72-73. Then lost at home to UNLV, 80-81, two teams they were favored against and lost straight up. Now they hit the road for a three straight beginning with today's game. Utah State has just one loss, that coming on the road to a very good St Mary's team, 67-75 as a 2.5-point dog. The Aggies rebounded though with a win at San Jose State, 71-59. I am very anti-Fresno and with a very good Utah State team here today laying just 12 1/2 points, that's an early Christmas present as far as I'm concerned. Take Utah State in a blowout. |

Their lone loss this season came at Rutgers, 57-69. They will go on the road here tonight and play Alabama. Despit their losing record of 3-4 S/U, the Tide find themselves installed as a double-digit favorite here on Friday. Alabama just came off a three-game tournament in which they went 1-2, winning the last game over Southern Miss, 83-68 as a 11.5 point favorite. The Tide have lost at home to Penn this year, 80-81. One of my numbers has Alabama as a dog in this game. That's a number that reflects their total play and shows that this team has had its issues. I'm taking the double digits here today with the dog. Play Stephen Austin. |

Fresno has yet to cover a game this year, with five losses and one push. Not sure Fresno should be laying points to anyone at this juncture of the season. Tonight they give UNLV 4 1/2 points. UNLV has shown they can play good teams and hang in there. I'll take these points tonight. Play UNLV. |

12-03-19 | Murray State +4.5 v. Missouri State | 69-71 | Win | 100 | 7 h 20 m | Show | |
Murray State comes into this game with a 4-3 S/U and 1-5 ATS record. The Racers lost two of their three in their recent tournament. They failed to cover all three games also. SW Missouri State is 3-5 S/U and 4-3-1 ATS. The Bears have been in every game except their last which they lost to LSU, 58-73. Mo State laying around four tonight. My number has them quite a bit higher. I'm taking that and laying the point with the home club. Play SW Missouri State. |

12-03-19 | Texas A&M Corpus Christi +8 v. Texas-San Antonio | 67-89 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 19 m | Show | |
Battle of Texas here tonight as Texas A&M CC takes on Texas San Antonio. The San Antonio RoadRunners have not covered a spread in their six attempts. They are also 1-6 S/U with their only win coming at home to Wiley College, 90-68. This has not been a very good team. They must now face a Corpus Christ team that has won three straight games and covered two straight. The Islanders are just a 2-point dog accouridng to both my numbers. Yet, the oddsmaker has installed them a 8-point dog to a team that has just one win and no covers this season. I fully expect Corpus Christi to have a good shot at winning this game outright, but I'll take the 8-points that the oddsmaker has genously given me. Play Texas A&M Corpus Christi. |
|||||||
12-03-19 | Michigan +5.5 v. Louisville | Top | 43-58 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 50 m | Show |
Michigan has climbed all the way up to No 4 in the country as they take on top ranked Louisville tonight. This in in big part to their recent play, which included wins over Gonzaga (82-64), North Carolina (73-64) and Iowa State (83-76). Those key wins improved the Wolverines to 7-0 S/U and 5-2 ATS on the season. Top ranked Louisville is also 7-0 S/U, but just 3-4 ATS on the season. Louisville laying around 5 1/2 points here tonight. My numbers have this game anywhere from pick to 2 points on Louisville. Michigan proved they can beat the best and I won't be surprised if they pull it off again here tonight. Take the points with the visitor in this one, play Michigan. |
|||||||
12-03-19 | Butler v. Ole Miss UNDER 131 | 67-58 | Win | 100 | 6 h 20 m | Show | |
Butler puts its perfect 7-0 record on the line tonight when they play at Mississippi tonight. The Butler Bulldogs just won both of their tournament games over Stanford and Missouri. Tonight though, I'm looking at the UNDER in this game. Butler has been a very good defensive team, allowing just less than 60 points in six of its eight games. They also have a 2-5 O/U mark on the season. Ole Miss is 5-2 S/U this season and coming off a tournament loss to Oklahoma, 37-78. They have gone under in four of their seven games. We saw what the Ok State defense did to this team, now they face an even better defense in Butler. Don't expect many points here tonight. Play the UNDER. |
|||||||
12-02-19 | Columbia v. Delaware -6 | Top | 76-84 | Win | 100 | 6 h 23 m | Show |
Delaware puts its perfect 8-0 record on the line tonight at home against the Ivy league's Columbia. The Blue Hens are also 6-1 against the number this year. While the resume has no heavyweights on it, they are all the caliber of tonight's opponent. Their only non-cover came in their last game in a win over Maryland Eastern Shore, 75-56, failing to cover the 20.5 point chalk line. Columbia is 3-5 S/U and 4-4 on the season. The Lions have won two straight games over Central Connecticut and Lehigh. This team has played some heavyweights, losing to Virginia (42-60), Wake Forest (63-65) and St Johns (63-82). Don't see Columbia coming close to putting a "L" in that Delaware loss column. I'm taking Delaware tonight. |
|||||||
12-01-19 | Southern Illinois v. St. Louis -12.5 | 60-69 | Loss | -118 | 4 h 30 m | Show | |
Southern Illinois is 3-4 S/U and 2-4 ATS on the season. The Salukis snapped a four-game losing streak with a win at home over NC Central, 64-48, covering the 9-point chalk line. St Louis has been really good this year, going 6-1 S/U and 5-2 ATS. The Billikens are coming off a road win at Boston College, 64-54 as a 1.5-point dog. The team's only loss came at home to Seton Hall, 66-83. St Louis laying 13 points at home today. My one indicator has them much higher than that. I'll lay the points here with St Louis. |
|||||||
12-01-19 | NC-Wilmington +20 v. Stanford | 54-72 | Win | 100 | 4 h 30 m | Show | |
Stanford might be the class of this PAC-12 with a 7-1 S/U and 7-1 ATS record. The Cardinal just lost its first game though, a neutral site setback to Butler, 67-69 as a 3 1/2 point dog. Now they return home for one game and will lay about 20-points here to Wilmington. UNC Wilmington is 5-4 S/U and 3-3 ATS. Wilmington can cover these big spreads, they covered 22-points in a loss to North Carolina, 62-78. My own number has Stanford laying about 4-points less. I rely on my own numbers a lot early in the season. Take the points here, play UNC Wilmington. |
|||||||
11-30-19 | Tennessee v. VCU +1 | Top | 72-69 | Loss | -109 | 5 h 18 m | Show |
Emerald Classic first round action today from Niceville, Florida has Tennessee taking on VCU. Both teams suffered their respecitve first losses of the season in this tournament. Tennessee was 5-0 before losing last night to Florida State, 57-60, narrowly missing the +1.5-point cover. VCU lost a hard-fought battle to Purdue last night, 56-59, also just failing to cover the 2.5-point dog line. This game is very evenly matched and I won't be surprised to see this one come right down to the end of the game to find a winner. However, taking 2-points with VCU is what I'm doing here tonight since I look for VCU to win this game outright. Play Virginia Commonwealth. |
|||||||
11-30-19 | NC-Greensboro +7 v. Georgetown | 65-61 | Win | 100 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
A bit surprsed that Greensboro getting seven pints here today on the road. This has been a decent team at 5-2 S/U and 4-2 ATS. The Spartans have only played one true road game and that was a tough one at Kansas that they lost 62-74, but covered the 14.5 dog line. The Georgetown Hoyas return home after a two-game tournament that saw them go 1-1 S/U and 2-0 ATS. In fact, those were the only two covers so far this season by Georgetown after going 0-4 ATS at home the previous four. They return home today and will try for that first home cover. My own number has this closer to a 3/12 pints GT spread. I like these 7-points and will take them today. Play UNC Greesboro. |
|||||||
11-30-19 | William & Mary +8 v. Buffalo | 77-88 | Loss | -109 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
William & Mary comes into today's contest at 5-2 on the season with a 6-1 spread winning mark. The Tribe are a 8 to 8 1/2 point road dog today to Buffalo. My own numbers have that way lower. Why? Because Buffalo is only 4-2 S/U and has covered just one of five spread games. The Bulls have failed to cover their last three including a recent home win over Missouri State, 75-74. William & Mary has already played five road games, including Oklahoma and Stanford and their only non-cover came to the Cardinal. I like the Tribe getting these kind of points today. I wouldn't even be surprised by an outright win. Play William & Mary. |
|||||||
11-29-19 | Utah State +4 v. St. Mary's | 73-81 | Loss | -109 | 23 h 45 m | Show | |
Utah State comes into tonight's contest at St Mary's as a dog, but don't tell the Aggies that. Utah State is 7-0 S/U and 4-3 ATS on the season. Utah State has scored 80 or more points in six of their seven games. St Mary's is 5-1 S/U and 2-4 ATS this year. The Gaels lost to Winthrop at home as a 17.5 point favorite, their only loss. Utah State may not have the big name basketball players of St Mary's, but they have produced results all season. I'm taking the four points here tonight with the visitor. Play Utah State. |
|||||||
11-29-19 | VCU +3 v. Purdue | 56-59 | Push | 0 | 21 h 21 m | Show | |
VCU one of the unbeaten teams at 6-0 S/U and 2-4 ATS on the season. VCU finds themselves a small dog here tonight in the Emerald Coast Classic 1st Round. I find that difficult to believe considering they have yet to lost a game. Purdue is 3-2 S/U and 2-3 ATS. The Boilermakers have played two quality teams and lost to both. That included a home loss to Texas, 66-70 as a 8-point favorite and then losing the next game at Marquette, 55-65 as a 1-point dog. I like VCU here on a neutral court getting points. Play Virginia Commonwealth. |
|||||||
11-29-19 | NC-Wilmington +13.5 v. Boise State | 59-80 | Loss | -108 | 20 h 15 m | Show | |
NC Wilmington is a big dog in today's game at Boise State. Wilmington is 5-3 S/U on the season and 3-2 ATS. Boise State is 3-2 S/U and 2-2 ATS so far this season. The Broncos have won two straight games, both having to go to Overtime. They beat BYU, 72-68 and then at Pacific, 82-76. They did lost at home to UC Irvine, 61-69 and at Oregon, 75-106. The points look awfully tempting to take here with a decent Wilmington team. Play NC Wilmington. |
|||||||
11-29-19 | DePaul +4 v. Minnesota | 73-68 | Win | 100 | 14 h 16 m | Show | |
Depaul off to an excellent start to the season at 7-0 S/U and 4-2 ATS. The Blue Demons have beat Iowa, 93-78, a a 9-point dog and they beat Boston College, 72-67, a a 1-point favorite - both these games on the road. Minnesota is 3-3 S/U and 4-1-1 ATS on the season. The Golden Gophers lost at Butler, 56-64 and lost at Utah, 69-73. Both those games on the road. The Gophers really have no quality wins this season. I like Depaul in this game. Play Depaul. |
|||||||
11-29-19 | Massachusetts +9 v. Rutgers | 57-82 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 16 m | Show | |
Both these clubs have five wins this year, but for some reason Rutgers laying 8 1/2 points. My number has them around four points so I'm taking a good look at the visitor in this one. U Mass has covered five of their seven games while Rutgers is 2-4 ATS on the year. Rutgers barely got by Bryant, 73-71, as a 21.5 point favorite and lost outright to St Bonny's, 74-80, as a 8 1/2 point favorite. The Rutgers team too inconsistent for me. I'm taking the points with U Mass. |
|||||||
11-28-19 | Pepperdine v. Arizona -14.5 | 91-93 | Loss | -108 | 13 h 37 m | Show | |
Wooden Legacy 1st Round action has 16th ranked Arizona taking on Pepperdine. Arizona is a perfect 6-0 S/U and 5-1 ATS this season. The Wildcats benefited from all six of those games being played at home with big wins over Illinois (90-69) and a good South Dakota State team (71-64). That South Dakota win was the only game they haven't covered this year. Meanwhile, Pepperdine is 3-3 S/U and ATS on the season. The Waves are coming off a home loss to Sacramento State, 72-77 as a 9 1/2 point favorite. In fact, the Waves have lost their only two home games this year, with the other coming to UC Irvine, 73-77. Expect a fast paced game out of Arizona here today. Arizona has scored 83 or more points in all but one game this year. They shouldn't have any trouble covering this big spread. Play Arizona. |
|||||||
11-28-19 | Creighton v. San Diego State -2 | 52-83 | Win | 100 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
Las Vegas Invitational 1st Round action here late on the Thursday schedule has Creighton taking on San Diego State. San Diego State plays in the Mountain West and is used to playing in Vegas, so not much of a departure for the Aztecs here. San Diego State is 6-0 S/U and 4-2 ATS this season and a win here tonight could propel the Aztecs into the top 25. Creighton is 4-1 S/U and 1-4 ATS. Creighton has only played one road game and that was at Michigan, a 69-79 loss as a 5.5 point dog. Creighton hasn't really played anyone other than Michigan. San Diego State has beaten a very good BYU team on their resume. Aztecs just a 2-point favorite here tonight. I like the undefeated Aztecs to keep it going tonight. Play San Diego State. |
|||||||
11-28-19 | Wake Forest v. College of Charleston -2 | 65-56 | Loss | -109 | 6 h 7 m | Show | |
Wooden Legacy first round action here on Thanksgiving Day from Anaheim, CA has College of Charleston taking on Wake Forest. Charleston is 3-2 S/U and 2-2-1 ATS on the season. The lost last time out at Central Florida, 71-72. Their toughest game this year was at home vs Oklahoma State and they lost badly, 54-73 as a 4-point dog. Wake Forest has had five days off after beating Davidson in a tourney game, 82-70. The Deacons are 3-2 S/U and 2-3 ATS this season. Their two losses both came on the road at Boston College (70-77) and Charlotte (65-67). Wake Forest comes from the better conference, but their road losses have me concerned. Getting a few points here with Charleston, a team I believe can win this game, is good for me. Take College of Charleston. |
|||||||
11-27-19 | South Dakota -1 v. California Baptist | 84-83 | Push | 0 | 11 h 25 m | Show | |
South Dakota one of the better teams in the Summit League as they are 5-1 S/U and 4-2 ATS on the season. SD lost its first game of season last time out at Arkansas, 56-77 as a 14.5-point dog. Now they travel to the West Coast to play Cal Baptist. Cal Baptist is a new entry into the WAC and they are just 4-2 S/U and 3-2 ATS on the season. The Lancers won last time out on a neutral court against Georgia State, 82-69. I see a big difference in class among these two schools. South Dakota laying just 1 1/2 points is a deal for me. Play South Dakota. |
|||||||
11-27-19 | Hofstra +1 v. San Diego | Top | 69-79 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 27 m | Show |
Hofstra continues its one West Coast trip this season with a final game here at San Diego. The Pride started this swing at UCLA with a big win over the Bruins, 88-78 and then a blowout win at Cal State Fullerton, 79-57. Hosftra is now 4-2 S/U and 3-2 ATS on the season. San Diego is 2-5 S/U and 3-3-1 ATS on the season. San Diego has lost three straight games, getting beat by at least 17-points in each of those games. Things won't get much better here tonight as they have to play a very good Hofstra team. I like the visitor in this one. Play Hofstra. |
|||||||
11-27-19 | St. Louis +2 v. Boston College | 64-54 | Win | 100 | 3 h 26 m | Show | |
Two teams having a good start to their respective seasons meet here on Wednesday as Boston College hosts St Louis. The St Louis Billikins are 5-1 S/U and 4-2 ATS this season. The Billikins have played all their games at home this season and play their first road game of the season here today. Boston College is 4-2 S/U and 3-3 ATS. The Eagles covered their first three games of the season, but have dropped their last three. They have played five of their games at home thus far. BC a 2-point favorite here today, but my numbers slightly favor the visitor in this one. I'll take St Louis. |
|||||||
11-27-19 | Drake -1.5 v. Murray State | 63-53 | Win | 100 | 3 h 56 m | Show | |
Gulf Coast Showdown final round action here from Estero, FL as Murray State takes on Drake. Drake is 5-2 S/U and 4-2 ATS on the young season. The Bulldogs have split their two games in this tournament, losing the opener to Miami Ohio, 59-67 and then winning last night over Northeastern, 59-56. This will be the teams third game in three nights before they get 5-days off before returning home to play Wisconsin Milwaukee. Murray State is 4-2 S/U and 1-4 ATS this season. Murray is also playing its third game in three nights after losing the opener to Lasalle, 64-75 and then winning last night over Weber State, 69-68. This is an early game and Drake is small favorite. The Bulldogs have been covering well and I'm sticking with them again here today. Play Drake. |
|||||||
11-26-19 | Morehead State +6.5 v. William & Mary | 84-95 | Loss | -108 | 18 h 21 m | Show | |
Two teams with 4-2 records meet here tonight as William & Mary hosts Morehead State. Morehead is 4-2 S/U and 5-0 ATS. They have covered every game including road games at Missouri and at Butler. William and Mary has played five of its six games on the road and still has a 4-2 record with a 5-1 ATS mark. William & Mary has lost two straight games at Oklahoma and at Stanford, failing to cover only the latter in a 30-point road loss to the Cardinal. Two good cover teams here tonight and William & Mary laying 6 1/2 points might be just a bit too many for them to cover in only their second stint as the favorite. Take the points, play Morehead State. |
|||||||
11-26-19 | Mercer +6.5 v. St Bonaventure | 51-56 | Win | 100 | 18 h 51 m | Show | |
Southern Conference Mercer takes to the road for the third straight game here tonight at St Bonaventure. Mercer is 4-2 S/U and 3-2 ATS so far this season. Mercer is coming off a road win at favored Illinois Chicago 72-68 as a 4-point dog. St Bonny's is only 1-4 S/U and 2-3 ATS this season. Their lone win this season came on the road at Rutgers, 80-74 as a 8.5 point dog. Their losses included setbacks at home to Ohio and to Vermont. St Bonny's not a very good team and Mercer has shown they can beat good teams on the road. So they should be able to beat a bad team here tonight. Play Mercer. |

11-25-19 | CS-Northridge +9.5 v. Green Bay | Top | 84-85 | Win | 100 | 7 h 23 m | Show |
Lets face it, Cal Northridge would be in my bottom five teams in the nation. This team is horrible. They give up a lot of points and they are usually blown out in games, especially on the road. Northridge played last night against Colgate and then turns around and makes the trip to Wisconsin for tonight's game. They are on a long road trip here having been blown out at Auburn, 70-116 and then at Richmond, 62-90, before covering last night vs Colgate, 56-64 as a 10-point dog. Wisconsin Green Bay isn't a very good team, they have played four games and lost three of them on the road. However, they get a softball the next two games with home stints against CSUN and then Colgate. I look for Wisconsin Green Bay to get an easy win here tonight. Play Wisconsin Green Bay. |
|||||||
11-25-19 | Georgia v. Dayton -2 | 61-80 | Win | 100 | 2 h 52 m | Show | |
Two teams both undefeated matchup here tonight as Dayton and Georgia play in the 1st round of the Maui Invitational. Georgia is 4-0 S/U and 2-2 ATS after a four-game home stint that included a win over Georgia tech, 82-78 as a 5.5-point favorite. Dayton also played it's initial games at home, going 3-0 S/U and 2-1 ATS with wins over Indiana State, Charleston Southern and Nebraska Omaha. Dayton has scored 86, 90 and 93 points respectively in those three games. Dayton a small favorite here tonight. My own number has them about 3 points higher. I like the Dayton laying this short number. Play Dayton. |

11-24-19 | Arizona State +8.5 v. Virginia | 45-48 | Win | 100 | 2 h 19 m | Show | |
Hall of Fame Tip off Final round today from Uncasville, CT has Arizona State taking on defending NCAA Champion Virginia. The Cavaliers are off to a perfect 5-0 start to the season, just 2-3 vs the number. Virginia won yesterday in this tourney over U Mass, 58-46 as a 15.5 point dog, failing to cover three straight now. As usual, Virginia plays great defense but has trouble scoring points. Th Sun Devils are 3-1 S/U and ATS on the season after winning in this tourney yesterday over St Johns, 80-67 as a 3-point chalk. This Sun Devil team can score, averaging 80 points or more in its last three games. Today we'll see if Virginia can cover the 9 point line against this good scoring ASU team. Personally, I don't thing Virginia scores enough points to cover this big number against a good team. Take Arizona State |
|||||||
11-23-19 | UC-Davis v. Portland -7 | Top | 62-72 | Win | 100 | 4 h 34 m | Show |
UC Davis brings a 2-4 S/U and 0-5 ATS record into tonight's contest. Portland U is having a fine season with a 4-1 S/U and 4-0 ATS mark. Davis lost at Sacramento last time out 51-61 as a 5-point dog. Davis still looking for that first cover of the season against five misses. Portland is coming off a win over Portland State 82-75, covering the 6.5 point line. Unlike their opponent, Portland has covered all four of its attempts vs the number. I'm sticking with the hot team here today. Play Portland. |

11-23-19 | Arizona State -2.5 v. St. John's | 80-67 | Win | 100 | 2 h 4 m | Show | |
Arizona State and St John's play in the 1st Round of the Hall of Fame Tip off tonight from Uncasville, CT. ASU is 2-1 S/U and ATS on the young season. The Sun Devils opened with a neutral site loss to Colorado, 71-81 as a 5-point dog. Then they beat Central Conn and Rider. St Johns has opened with five home games and went 4-1 S/U and 3-2 ATS. The Red Storm only loss came to Vermont, 68-70 as a 3-point favorite. Now they play in this tourney before returning home for five straight games. ASU laying 2 1/2 points here in this one today. My one big indicator heavily favors the Sun Devils with my other number slightly giving them the nod. I like this short number with the better team. Play Arizona State. |

11-22-19 | Evansville -7.5 v. East Carolina | 68-85 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
Islands of the Bahamas 1st round action here today has Evansville taking on East Carolina. Evansville Purple Aces are 2-1 both S/U and ATS on the young season. The Aces opened with wins over Ball State and then the big shocking win at Kentucky, 67-64 as a 25-point road dog. Then of course, the big letdown the next game at home, losing to SMU 57-59. Meanwhile, East Carolina has lost three straight games after opening the season with a win over VMI. They are coming off a loss at home to Liberty, 55-77. This ECU team is not very good while Evansville has shown their potential with that big win over Kentucky. I'll lay the points here with East Carolina. |

11-22-19 | Eastern Kentucky v. Florida International -6.5 | 70-89 | Win | 100 | 7 h 9 m | Show | |
DC Classic 1st round action here today from Washington DC as Florida International takes on Eastern Kentucky. FIA is 2-2 S/U and 3-0 ATS on the season, while EKU is 2-2 S/U and 2-1 ATS. Florida International has played some stiff competition thus far with road games at Mississippi State (69-77) and North Carolina State (77-86). They covered both those games. Then they easily beat Cleveland State on the road last time out, 107-61, covering the 7-point chalk line. Eastern Kentucky got pummeled at Kentucky, 49-91 as a 28-point dog and last time out lost at home to Western Kentucky, 71-79, thought they did cover the 10-point line. FIU a 6 1/2 point favorite here today, but one of my key indicators has them much higher based on competition. I'm going to lay the points with Florida International. |
|||||||
11-21-19 | Toledo +7.5 v. Notre Dame | 62-64 | Win | 100 | 20 h 24 m | Show | |
Both clubs off to good starts with Toledo at 3-1 S/U and 2-2 ATS. Notre Dame is 4-1 S/U, but only 1-3 ATS. The Rockets opened their season with a road loss at Valpo, 77-79. However, they rebounded with three straight wins over Marshall, Robert Morris and Howard. Notre Dame also opened with a road loss at North Carolina, 65-76 then won four straight home game. However, none of those were against any good competition. This looks to be Notre Dame's toughest test since their opener. Notre Dame -7.5 point favorite here, but my numbers have them much less. I'm taking the points with Toledo. |
|||||||
11-21-19 | Central Michigan +9.5 v. Minnesota | Top | 57-82 | Loss | -108 | 20 h 56 m | Show |
Central Michigan perfect to start the season at 4-0 S/U and 2-0 ATS. Central Michigan opened with four home games and scored over 100 points in three of those games - albeit against weak competition. Now they hit the road for the first time and tonight is their toughest test thus far vs Minnesota. Minnesota opened with a win over Cleveland State, 85-50 and then lost three straight games to Oklahoma, Butler and Utah - all tough opponents. Minnesota laying 9 1/2 tonight. My numbers have them less than that, but we also have to look at the strength of schedule too - which greatly favors Minnesota. Still, I'm going to take Central Michigan and the points here tonight. |

11-21-19 | Xavier v. Towson +11.5 | 73-51 | Loss | -100 | 19 h 55 m | Show | |
Charleston Classic first round action has Xavier taking on Towson. Xavier is 2-2 S/U and 2-1 ATS to start the season. Towson is 4-0 S/U, but 0-3 ATS to start their season. Towson opened with three home games, losing only to Kent, 80-84. They then hit the road last time out and game nationally ranked Florida all it could handle with a a 60-66 loss as a 18 point dog. Xavier benefits from seven of their first eight games at home. They won their first four, but have yet to cover a spread at 0-3-1. Here today on a neutral court, Xavier is laying double digits. Not too promising for a team that has yet to cover a spread, three of which were double digit. I'm taking the points with Towson. |
