Towson has covered both road games this season and outscored their hosts by a 68-59.5 average. The Kent State Golden Flashes are 4-2 S/U and 2-2 ATS on the season. They are coming off a lopsided win over Point Park, 107-41. Have to toss that one out as we do their win over Oberlin, 84-38. In their other four games, they have been held below 60 points scoring in two of those. So those 191 points against those two non-board teams skews the average a bit. I'm not convinced Kent State is all that good, while I know Towson can cover spreads very well. Take the points with Towson. |

12-04-21 | Youngstown State v. Green Bay | 82-58 | Win | 100 | 5 h 35 m | Show | |
The Youngstown State Penquins are 3-3 S/U and ATS to start the season. The Penquins are coming off a win over Wisconsin Milwaukee, 70-68 as a 4.5-point road dog. YS is averaging 70.7 ppg and allowing 70.7 ppg this season. On the road, they are actually outscoring their hosts, 75.3 to 74 in three games. They are also 2-1 S/U and 3-0 ATS away from home. The will face a Wisconsin Green Bay Phoenix team that is 2-5 S/U and 4-2 ATS on the season. The Phoenix are coming off a win over Robert Morris, 70-58 as a 2-point favorite. Otherwise they have been dogs in every other posted game. This game is around pick tonight, so the spread won't be a factor in this one. That being said, I like the way Youngstown has played on the road this young season and look for them to win here tonight. |

They have been very good at home too, going 5-0 S/U, 3-2 ATS and allowing just 57 ppg. BC should dominate this Irish team on their home court. Play Boston College. |

Maryland is also 5-2 S/U but have covered just two of their seven games. They are coming off a loss against Louisville, 55-63, as a 2.5-poing dog.

They have also played four home games and a pair of tourney games. The one bad thing is that the Pack has covered just one game and that was last time out vs La Tech, 90-81, covering the 3.5-point line. The 6.5-points they are laying tonight is just too many to a good team like Nebraska. Take the dog here, play Nebraska. |

This will be the first road game for the Bulls this season. This team has not scored well and that was all the games at home, as they average just 56.4 ppg.

Virginia Tech is 5-0 S/U and ATS on the season, though they have yet to face competition of tonight's level. The Hokies have yet to be a favorite of fewer than 11-points with four of their games 19-points or more. Now they are a dog against a much higher class opponent. I don't believe this Tech team is all that good and tonight should prove it. Play Memphis. |

I look for VCU to have a hard time cracking this Syacuse zone defense here today. I'll lay the points with Syracuse. |

The Ramblers have had a few days off before this tourney after beating Illinois Chicago on Saturday, 80-63. The Ramblers have been at least 18-point favorites in every game thus far.

They lost their opening game to Kansas 74-87 and since have beaten Western Michigan, Butler and Eastern Michigan, all by at least 19-points.

Gulf Coast Showcase from Estero FL here today. The Fordham Rams look to build on their most recent game, a win over Akron, 63-43. That snapped a two-game losing skid. The bad spot on the resume is a home loss to Maryland Eastern Shore, 73-75 as a 12.5-poing favorite. The Delaware Blue Hens are 3-1 and after losing their opening game of the season to Davidson they have rattled off three straight wins. The Hens are 2-2 vs the number. The Hens are laying 6.5 here today. They have played much better competition and played much better. I'll take Delaware. |

11-23-21 | George Mason +3.5 v. Nevada | 69-88 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 14 m | Show | |
The George Mason Patriots have looked pretty good to start the season at 4-2 S/U and ATS. They started 4-0 before dropping their last two games, including last night vs Washington, 74-77. Tonight, they play a team they would normally never play in Nevada. This game will be played in Sioux Falls, North Dakota. Nevada is still smarting from their defeat last night by South Dakota State, 75-102 as a 2.5-point dog. The Wolf pack opened the year with a win over Eastern Washington and have since dropped four straight games and are 1-3 vs the number in that span. Defense has been the issue, as they have allowed 73 or more points in all five games for an average allowed of 84.4 ppg. Now they have to lay around 5-points to a very good GM team? I don't think so, I'll take Mason and even look for an outright win. |

11-23-21 | Wisconsin v. Houston -7.5 | Top | 65-63 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 13 m | Show |
MAUI Invitational Second round action has the Wisconsin Badgers taking on the Houston Cougars. The Badgers beat the Texas A&M Aggies in the first round yesterday, 69-58 and covering the 3-point line. Wisconsin is now 3-1 S/U and 2-2 ATS on the season. The Badgers shooting has not been good, hitting over 40% from the field in just one of four games. The defense is good as it is always, holding opponents to just 53.3 ppg on the season. Houston had little trouble with Butler in the opening round, 70-52, covering the 10-point spread. The Cougars are 4-0 S/U and 3-1 ATS on the season. In fact, they have won their last games by 18 (Butler), 20 (Virginia) and 27 (Rice). All impressive wins. They are holding their opponents to just 55 ppg and scoring 74.8 ppg. Always tough in these tournaments playing back to back games as they are today. Houston is just too good on offense and almost equal on defense. I'll lay the points in what I believe won't be a close game. Play Houston. |

11-22-21 | Providence +1.5 v. Northwestern | 77-72 | Win | 100 | 9 h 46 m | Show | |

The Wildcats are coming off a win over Farleigh Dickinson, 82-46, as a 24.5-point favorite. They Cats have shot really well from 3-point arc, 33% or better in all games. Should be a great game, but I'll take the Friars in this one. Take Providence. |

The Cougars are coming off their first loss of the season last time out against North Carolina, 83-94, but covered the 12.5-point dog line. The Cougars have outrebounded three of their four opponents so far. The Oklahoma State Cowboys are 4-1 S/U and 3-2 ATS so far. The Cowboys one loss came in a big upset by Oakland, 55-56 as a 17-point favorite. They are coming off a win in their last game over NC State, 74-68 as a 4.5-point favorite. The Cougars getting 16 points here should be enough for them to come in under that number. take the dog, play College of Charleston. |

11-22-21 | Harvard -4.5 v. Siena | 69-72 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 15 m | Show | |
The Harvard Crimson is 3-1 S/U and 2-0 ATS so far this season. They are coming off a win over MIT, 98-52. Their last board game was a win at Albany, 60-53 as a 6.5-point favorite. This might have been a nice test for the Crimson tonight, however Seina is 0-4 S/U and ATS on the season. The Saints are coming off a loss at Georgetown, 65-83 as 15.5-point dogs. They have yet to be a favorite in a game. Again here tonight, they are the dog on their home court to Harvard. This Siena team lost by 20 points at home to Delaware and I believe Harvard is better then they are. I'll lay the points with Harvard. |

11-22-21 | Ohio State v. Seton Hall -2 | 79-76 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 15 m | Show | |
Opening round of the Fort Myers Classic Beach Division here tonight has Ohio State taking on Seton Hall. Ohio State is 3-1 S/U and 1-3 ATS on the season. The Buckeyes are coming off their first loss of the year at Xavier, 65-71 as a 2.5-point favorite. The Buckeyes had their worst shooting performance as they hit just 37.7% from the field and had eight fewer rebounds. Seton Hall is 3-0 S/U and ATS to start the season. The Pirates are coming off a huge win over Michigan, 67-65 as a 8-point road dog. The Pirates look to be the real deal and I look for them to beat their second straight Big-10 team here tonight. Play Seton Hall. |

11-21-21 | Villanova +3.5 v. Purdue | 74-80 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 5 m | Show | |
Hall of Fame Basketball Tip off Finals today from Uncasville, CT has 3-1 Villanova taking on 4-0 Purdue for the crown of this tourney. Villanova could easily be 4-0 if they didn't collapse at the end of their game at UCLA back on Nov 12 and then lose in OT. Still, the Cats are 3-1 S/U and 2-2 ATS. Purude does come into this final undefeated at 4-0 S/U and 3-1 ATS on the season. They are coming off a win over North Carolina, 93-84. They also have wins over Wright St, Indiana St and Bellarmine. The Boilermakers have scored at least 90 points in all four games. This looks to be one of the best games of the day with two top 10 ranked teams facing off. I'll take the couple of points though. Take Villanova. |

The Florida International Golden Panthers are 2-1 S/U and 1-1 ATS after three games. The Panthers are coming off a win and cover over Ball State, 73-60 as a 1.5-point favorite. They also played Georgia, losing 51-58 as a 6.5-point dog, narrowly missing the cover. They play a Wisconsin Green Bay Phoenix team that is still looking for their first win of the season against three losses. The Phoenix lost to Indiana State in their opener, 77-81 as a 2.5-point dog. Then lost at Wiscosin, 34-72 as a 21-point dog and then lost last time out to UNC Greensboro, 58-60, but covering the 10-point dog line. This is not a very good Green Bay team and today they will find it difficult to get that first win against a very good FIU club. Play FIU. |

Weber is 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games overall and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 as a favorite. I'll lay the points here with Weber State. |

CSU has dominated all three games this season and looked stacked with returning players including on one of the best in the Mountain West, Isaiah Stevens. Bradley won't stand much of a shot against this high scoring CSU team today. Play Colorado State. |

Marquette coming off that amazing win over highly ranked Illinois. On a neutral floor I'm sticking with Marquette. |

11-17-21 | Arkansas-Little Rock +13.5 v. Loyola Marymount | 63-82 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 53 m | Show | |
The Arkansas Little Rock Trojans are 3-0 S/U to start the season and 1-0 AS. The Trojans are coming off a win over Arkansas Baptist, 91-60 and Champion Baptist before that, 115-51. Their one test was a narrow win over Southern Illinois, 69-66 as a 6.5-point dog. The Loyola Marymount Lions are 1-1 after losing to UT Chattanooga to open the season 64-75 as a 7-point favorite. They are coming off a win over Arizona Christian, 75-67. Neither outing very impressive for this Lions team. I'll take the visitor here tonight. Play Arkansas Little Rock. |

11-17-21 | George Mason +9.5 v. Maryland | 71-66 | Win | 100 | 6 h 53 m | Show | |
A pair of 3-0 teams meet here tonight as Maryland hosts George Mason. The George Mason Patriots are not only 3-0 but have covered all three spreads. They opened with a win over Stony Brook, 74-52, then beat Penn, 87-66 and last game over Morgan State, 90-53. The Patriots have shot at least 50% from the field in each game and over 45% from the 3-point line in their last two games. Maryland is also 3-0, but just 1-2 vs the number. They are coming off a win over Vermont, 68-57, just covering the 9-point line. Unlike Mason, they have shot 36.7% vs Vermont and 37.5% vs George Washington. They play a very good George Mason team here today and are laying right around 10-points. Their field goal shooting has me concerned though. I'll take the points in this one. Play George Mason. |
|||||||
11-17-21 | Drexel -1 v. St. Joe's | 78-75 | Win | 100 | 6 h 52 m | Show | |
The Drexel Dragons are 1-1 beating Neumann College 103-74 and then losing last game at Syracuse, 60-75 as a 15.5-point dog. Syracuse shot great from the field, 55.6% and 50% from 3-point arc. St Josephs Hawks are 2-0 coming into tonight. The Hawks have two softball wins on their resume, 69-67 over Maryland Eastern Shore and 80-60 over Mount St Marys. They covered against St Marys but didn't against Eastern Shore. The latter a 24.5-point favorite and they won the game by just 2-points. Can't put a lot of stock in St Joe's early wins, especially the one they were 24.5-point favorites. This is a team that was 5-15 last year and 11-41 in the two years under HC Billy Lange. Drexel made the NCAA last year and have Wynter back this year. I'll take Drexel here tonight. |
|||||||
11-16-21 | Seton Hall +8.5 v. Michigan | 67-65 | Win | 100 | 6 h 6 m | Show | |
The Seton Hall Pirates put their perfect 2-0 record on the line as they travel to Big 10 Powerhouse Michigan tonight. The Pirates have had an easy go of it thus far with blowout wins over Fairleight Dickinson, 93-49 and then Yale, 80-44. They are also 2-0 ATS in those two games. The test comes tonight at Michigan. The 4th ranked Wolverines are also 2-0 S/U and 1-1 ATS. They beat Buffalo to open the season, 88-76, but just failed to cover the 12.5-point line. Last game they won easily against Prairie View A&M, 77-49 as a 23.5-point favorite. The Pirates should be taken lightly as they rank 35th in the Kenpom power rankings. This Pirates team also has experience and depth which they will need tonight. The Pirates will be able to run bodies in and out of the game and I fully expect them to hang with the Wolverines. Play Seton Hall. |

11-16-21 | St. Louis v. Memphis -10.5 | Top | 74-90 | Win | 100 | 7 h 31 m | Show |
The St Louis Billikens are 3-0 to start their season and 2-0 ATS. They haven't really played anyone of significance yet with wins over Central Arkansas, Harris Stowe and their last game over Eastern Illinois, 86-44 as a 21-point favorite. The will face the 11th ranked Memphis Tigers tonight who are 2-0 S/U and 1-1 ATS on the season. The Tigers opened with a win over Tennessee Tech and then last time out beat NC Central, 90-51 as a 28.5-point favorite. St Louis Freshman Gibson Jimerson has been a early bright star, averaging 18.7 ppg through the first 3 contests. Memphis has aspirations of a long trip through the NCAA's this year. This Tigers teams is expected to be one of the best defensive teams in the nation this year. This Memphis team looks to be a early favorite in the country to win and win big. Yes, St Louis is undefeated, however they haven't faced a dynamic team like Memphis yet. This is just too much quality for the Billikens. Play Memphis. |

11-16-21 | Austin Peay v. IUPU Ft Wayne -7 | 60-65 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 31 m | Show | |
The Austin Peay GOvernors take their 1-1 record on the road to Indiana Purdue-Fort Wayne here tonight. The Governors opened the season with a slim win over Martin Methodist, 86-79. They were outshot from both the field and 3-point line in that contest. Last time out they went to Southern Illinois and lost badly, 55-73 as a 13.5-point dog, again getting outshot 39% to 57%. The defense has been horrible thus far and if they hope to compete tonight they will have to improve. IUPU-Fort Wayne is 1-0 after beating a overwhelmed Earlham College, 103-54. This will be their first real test tonight for the Mastodons. Austin Peay is 0-6 ATS in their last six road games while the Mastodons are 4-1 ATS overall their last five games. I don't like this Austin Peay defense, even against a poor opponent they played poorly. I'll lay the points tonight with Fort Wayne even though they only have one game played. Play IUPFW |

11-15-21 | Furman v. Belmont -6 | 89-95 | Push | 0 | 8 h 14 m | Show | |
The Furman Paladins bring a 2-0 record into this evenings contest at Belmont. The Palidins pulled off the big upset win in their last game over Louisville in OT, 80-72. This followed their win over NCU-Greenville, 118-66. Furman shot 42.9% from three-point arc vs Louisville and held the Cardinals to just 36.2% overall shooting and 24.1% 3-point shooting. The Belmont Bruins are 1-1 to start the season. They lost their opener to Ohio U, 80-92 as a 4-point home favorite. Then followed with a win over Evansville, 81-43 as a 14-point favorite. Furman is only 2-8 ATS in their last 10 road games and 0-8 ATS in their last eight game after a ATS win. Have to throw out that NCU Greenville game as everyone scores 100+ against that team. The Louisville win was a resume builder, but the fact that the Cardinals were just horrible and still forced OT is something to think about. I don't like Furman on the road and Belmont will build on their last win. Play Belmont. |

Battle of ranked teams here as No 5 Texas takes on top Ranked Gonzaga from the Great Northwest tonight. Texas gets the opportunity to show just how good they are tonight against the nation's top ranked team. If there is a game that Texas can catch Gonzaga sleeping a bit, this is the one early in the season. This Texas team is excellent on defense and they will need it against one of the best scoring teams in the nation. This early, I'll take a good defensive team like Texas in this spot. Take the points. |

11-13-21 | UTEP +7.5 v. New Mexico State | 71-77 | Win | 100 | 10 h 3 m | Show | |
Rivalry game here tonight in the I-10 Battle has UTEP taking on New Mexico State from Las Cruces. UTEP opened the season with a win over Western New Mexico, 85-57. New Mexcico State also opened with a win over UC Irvine 62-51. UTEP has a new coach in Joe Golding. Golding led led Abilene Christian to a NCAA tournament last year. NM State always a good defensive team, it's on offense they need to find more points. They averaged just 71.1 ppg last year. The Aggies return three starters, but also lost some bench production too. I like this new coach for UTEP and will take the points with his new team tonight. Play UTEP. |

11-12-21 | Villanova +3.5 v. UCLA | 77-86 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 16 m | Show | |
UCLA gets tested early as they host Villanova at Pauley Pavillion tonight. Both these teams are ranked in the top 5 in the country. Villanova opened with an easy winner over Mount St Mary's, 91-51 while UCLA had little trouble with Cal Bakersfield, 95-58. Villanova lost leading scorer Jeremiah Robinson-Earl to graduation but return plenty of talent on this team. UCLA is one of the best shooting teams in the nation. They are also one of the best 3-point shooting teams in the nation. They hit on 13-of-27 from three point land vs Bakersfield. This will be a high scoring affair tonight as both teams can shoot lights out. I'll take the dog in this one. Play Villanova. |

11-12-21 | UL - Lafayette -3 v. Southern Miss | 66-45 | Win | 100 | 6 h 24 m | Show | |
Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns opened their season on Tuesday with a win at home over West Florida, 81-47. The defense was outstanding, holding West Florida to just 27.3% from the field an 21.1% from 3-point arc. The Ragin' Cagins his 47.9% from the field though they need to improve on free throws, hitting just 45.5%. The play at Southern Miss tonight. The Golden Eagles got a win on Tuesday at home over William Carey, 81-57. One big problem for the Eagles is they got outrebounded 43-76. My numbers tonight show ULL a bigger favorite then what he have right now. I'll take ULL against a Southern Miss team that doesn't look to have a very good season. Play ULL |

11-12-21 | Northern Colorado -2.5 v. Hawaii | 81-78 | Win | 100 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
Both these play their second games of the season tonight in Hawaii as the Warrior Rainbows host the Northern Colorado Bears. On Wednesday, the Bears beat Pacific, 67-65 and Hawaii beat Hawaii-Hilo, 97-67. No Colorado finished last year at 11-11 (6-8 in conference). Hawaii has had a winning record in each of their last five seasons, but that might a tall hill to climb this year as they will be without their top two scorers from last year in Justin Webster and James Jean-Marie. Both those players transferred out of Hawaii after last season. NO Colorado has all it's top players back from last year. Both teams will have to see about conditioning after playing last night. I am taking Northern Colorado as they have more returning talent back this year. |

11-11-21 | Air Force +8 v. South Dakota | 53-59 | Win | 100 | 4 h 37 m | Show | |
Early action here on the Thursday college hard court as Air Force takes on South Dakota. This non-conference game opens the season for both teams. Air Force was just 5-20 in Joe Scott's first year as head coach. South Dakota was 14-11 last year and lost in the Summit League semi-finals to North Dakota State. These clubs have met two times in the past with Air Force taking both those games. Air Force is not known for offense as they play a ball-control game with lots of movement. South Dakota is the better team here, but if Air Force can play their normal ball control and keep the score lower, they will cover this spread. Play Air Force. |
|||||||
11-10-21 | William & Mary v. Wake Forest -15 | 59-77 | Win | 100 | 7 h 32 m | Show | |
William & Mary Tribe play their opening game of the season on the road tonight at Wake Forest. The Tribe are coming off a 7-10 season and 4-6 conference mark. Wake also coming off a poor season that saw the Demon Deacons go 6-16 overall. Will & Mary returns four starters and added senior Brandon Carrol who averaged 11.3 ppg last year for Florida Southern. The Tribe will need to improve on their three-point shots as they ranked 291st in the nation from beyond the arc last year. Wake had to endure a full month off between games last year due to Covid. That can put a hinder into anyone's game. The roster has nine new players, which could be good after such a dismal season last year. They do return Davien Williamson who averaged 12.9 ppg last year. Don't know what to fully expect from this Wake team yet, but I'm going to take them here tonight against a William & Mary team that returns players but to a losing team. Take Wake Forest. |

11-09-21 | Towson -2 v. Albany | 77-56 | Win | 100 | 6 h 12 m | Show | |
First meeting ever between these basketball teams. Albany Great Danes are led by Antonio Rizzuto who was the America East All Defensive team player. Albany has a new coaching staff and really a new team with nine new players suiting up for the purple and gold. Not a lot to go with here in opening games but Alabany looks to be a team that will take time for both coaches and players to get used to each other. I'm going to take Towson here on opening night. |

11-09-21 | Southern Illinois -5.5 v. Arkansas-Little Rock | 66-69 | Loss | -111 | 5 h 12 m | Show | |
Full schedule of action today to tip-off College Hoops season. Tonight, Southern Illinois Salukis take on the Little Rock Arkansas Trojans. SIU was 12-14 last season while Little Rock was 11-15. SIU started 7-0 last year in non-conference games but then faltered once they got into conference. I look for the Salukis to be much improved this year in a conference that is crowded with some good teams. They have 2020 Freshman of the Year Marcus Domask back and a very good backcourt. Look for this version of the SIU team to be a lot better. Play Southern Illinois. |

04-05-21 | Baylor v. Gonzaga -4 | 86-70 | Loss | -118 | 30 h 5 m | Show | |
Both these teams advanced to the NCAA Championship game on different paths. The Baylor Bears had little trouble with their intra-state rivals, Houston, winning in a never close game, 78-59. Gonzaga took a much more exciting route, beating UCLA in OT 93-90. This game was close the entire way and it looked like we were headed to Double OT as UCLA made a basket with just over three seconds left. However, a nearly half court 3-points banked in and the Zags advanced to the title game here today. Baylor has more offensive weapons then UCLA and likes an up-tempo pace, as does Gonzaga. I've been high on the Zags all season and I don't see any reason to let the UCLA dissuade me. Take the Zags here on Monday. |

However, a nearly half court 3-points banked in and the Zags advanced to the title game here today. Baylor has more offensive weapons then UCLA and likes an up-tempo pace, as does Gonzaga. I expect this pace tonight to be fast and with that I'm taking the OVER. |

04-03-21 | UCLA v. Gonzaga UNDER 145.5 | 90-93 | Loss | -103 | 48 h 19 m | Show | |
Lets face it, this NCAA Tournament is Gonzaga's to lose. They are by far the best team in this tournament, winning every game by double digits and making them look easy. Now come UCLA, who has been lucky to win some OT and close games going back to the PAC-12 and NCAA tourneys. Totals have been going under in this tourney, mainly due to 3-pointers having dropped. Teams finally seem to catch on how to defense beyond the arc. UCLA has not scored much and I don't see them doing so here today. I think Gonzaga will keep this UCLA team bottled up all night. Play the UNDER. |

Now come UCLA, who has been lucky to win some OT and close games going back to the PAC-12 and NCAA tourneys. My feeling here is that Gonzaga will destroy this UCLA club as they have everyone else. No reason to look at numbers or anything else, just taking Gonzaga. |

Scoring has been down in this tournament, mainly because 3-point shooting percentages have dropped a lot. We've seen that even in Gonzaga games. These two teams both these teams. Houston has gone under in three straight games. Baylor has been one of the few teams to get more overs in this tournament, with both their last games going over. Still, I expect these teams to be more deliberate here today and more defense to be on display. Take the UNDER. |
