This is a 5* play on Vanderbilt. |

03-09-23 | Oklahoma State v. Texas UNDER 142.5 | 47-60 | Win | 100 | 9 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Under. Both BIG12 games failed to go over 140 points in the conference tournament yesterday. The Cowboys won 57-49 in their game versus Oklahoma. They lost 89-75 at Texas back in January, but each of the previous three meetings between these teams fell well short of the total. The total in each of the last four meetings had been set below 140. I am expecting another low scoring affair here at a neutral site in the conference tournament. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-09-23 | Rutgers v. Michigan -155 | Top | 62-50 | Loss | -155 | 20 h 14 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Michigan. The Wolverines finished the season winning three of their final five games, and one of those wins was a 59-48 win at Rutgers. They covered the spread in all five of those games, losing by a combined six points in road games at Illinois and Indiana. Rutgers won just two of their last five games of the season, and those wins came by a combined four points at Penn State and Wisconsin. The Scarlet Knights come in averaging 57.8 points per game in their last five, exactly 20 points fewer than Michigan has averaged during that span. The Wolverines are 36-15-2 ATS in their last 53 neutral site games. The Scarlet Knights are 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight games overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Oklahoma +2 v. Oklahoma State | 49-57 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Oklahoma. The Sooners already lost twice to the Cowboys this season, but things could be different here. Oklahoma State lost five of their last six games, with the only win coming by three points against a Texas Tech team that just suspended their coach. The Cowboys have allowed opponents to average over 80 points per game in their last five. The Sooners were 3-3 in their final six games of the season, five of those games versus ranked teams. They beat #12 K-State, #23 Iowa State, #22 TCU and they lost by just two points at #6 Texas. The Sooners are 7-1 ATS in their last eight neutral site games, while the Cowboys have failed to cover in four straight at neutral sites. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Virginia Tech v. NC State -142 | 77-97 | Win | 100 | 19 h 7 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on NCSTATE. The Hokies won the ACC Tournament last year, and if they want to go to the NCAA Tournament they probably have to do it again this year. The won their final three games of the season, but against three of the bottom four teams in the conference. The Wolfpack lost back to back games at the end of the year, but there is no shame in losing by four at Duke in their last game. They had won 11 of 14 prior to that. The Hokies are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games versus a team with a winning record, and they have failed to cover in five of their last six at a neutral site. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-07-23 | Georgia Tech -110 v. Florida State | 61-60 | Win | 100 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Georgia Tech. These two teams are trending in opposite directions. Georgia Tech won four of their final five games, while FSU lost four of five at the end of the season. The Yellowjackets come in averaging 80 points per game over their last five, while the Seminoles have scored just 68.8 points per game during that span. The Yellow Jackets are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games overall. The Seminoles are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games overall, and they have failed to cover in six straight neutral site games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-06-23 | BYU v. St. Mary's OVER 129.5 | 69-76 | Win | 100 | 19 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. So St. Mary's is one of the best defensive teams in the country, and they did win 57-56 at BYU back in January. BYU score 65 in the rematch at St. Mary's though, losing by just six points. The Gaels come in allowing over 63 points per game in their last five overall. BYU comes in scoring over 76 points per game in their last five overall. This number looks a little low for a neutral site game, considering the over is 146-118 in college basketball games played at Orleans Arena (prior to WCC Tournament). There has been several high scores here in this venue since the tournament started, and we have yet to see a game with less than 136 points scored. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Houston v. Memphis +6 | 67-65 | Win | 100 | 10 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Memphis. I like the home dog here. I really think the Tigers will be up for this final home game against Conference champs Houston. I don't see any reason for the Cougars to get fired up about this game as they get geared up for tournament season. The home team is 9-1 straight up in the last 10 meetings, and last year Memphis won at home by a score of 75-61. They lost at Houston by just eight points a few weeks ago, asking them to cover six here seems very reasonable. Don't be surprised if the Tigers win outright, a sprinkle on the ML is probably a good idea. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-05-23 | San Francisco v. Santa Clara -147 | 93-87 | Loss | -147 | 17 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SCU. Santa Clara swept the season series, winning both games by double digits. The finished the season on a roll, winning their final seven games. One of those was an 84-70 win at San Francisco. The Dons are coming off a win over Pacific, but they are 9-23 ATS in their last 32 games following a ATS win. The Broncos come in averaging over 85 points per game in their last five overall, and I don't think the Dons have the firepower to keep up. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Tennessee v. Auburn -135 | Top | 70-79 | Win | 100 | 12 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Auburn. The Vols are looking forward to the NCAA Tournament, while the Tigers might need a win here today if they want to get in. Auburn is coming off an overtime loss at Alabama, but they are much stronger on their home floor than they are on the road. The Tigers are 13-2 at home, while the Vols are just 4-5 on the road. Auburn has won five of the last seven head to head meetings, and all three home meetings since 2018. The Tigers are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games following a straight up loss, while the Vols have failed to cover in four straight road games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Memphis v. SMU +7 | 81-62 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on SMU. The Mustangs got off to a rough start in the American, but they've been playing a lot better down the stretch. They catch Memphis at the end of the season with a home game against #1 ranked Houston on deck, and the Tigers could get caught looking ahead here. The Mustangs are averaging over 75 points per game in their last five overall, just slightly more than Memphis during that span. While they have won just twice in their last six overall, their only loss during that span that came by more than five points was against Houston. The Tigers are 5-11-2 ATS in their last 18 games overall and they have failed to cover in eight of their last 10 versus a team with a losing record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-01-23 | Penn State v. Northwestern -168 | 68-65 | Loss | -168 | 16 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NW. The Wildcats don't get much respect when you consider they have 20 wins and are tied for second place in the BIG10. They host Penn State tonight, and they are just a small favorite against a Nittany Lions team that has lost seven of 10 on the road. The home team has won seven of the last nine meetings between these teams, and the Wildcats have already beaten Purdue, Indiana, Illinois and Iowa at home this season. Northwestern is 6-1 ATS in their last seven overall, and they have covered in five of their last six home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-01-23 | Xavier v. Providence -165 | 94-89 | Loss | -165 | 14 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on PROV. The Friars are undefeated at home this season, with a record of 15-0. They host the Xavier Musketeers, and this is a revenge spot after losing 85-83 at Xavier earlier this season. Providence had won four of the previous five meetings between the two teams. The Friars are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games overall, and they have covered in eight of their last 10 home games. The Musketeers won by 22 on the road at Seton Hall in their last game, and that could set them up for a let down here. They are 6-13 ATS in their last 19 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-28-23 | Colorado State v. San Jose State -145 | 46-63 | Win | 100 | 23 h 5 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on SJST. The Spartans have long been the whipping boys of the Mountain West, but they have some swagger in their step this season. San Jose State is 11-3 at home, with wins over Conference big boys Utah State and Boise State. They play their final home game tonight against a Colorado State team that is 5-11 in the Mountain West. The Rams are 8-22 ATS in their last 30 games versus a team with a winning record, and the favorite is 10-2 ATS in the last 12 head to head meetings. The Spartans have covered in five of their last six home games, and they are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-26-23 | Rutgers v. Penn State -150 | 59-56 | Loss | -150 | 14 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 10* play on PSU. The Scarlet Knights have lost four of their last five overall, while Penn State has won three straight. The Nittany Lions lost at Rutgers by a score of 65-45 back in January, setting up a revenge spot here at home. The home team has won six straight meetings in this series, and the Nittany Lions are 12-2 SU at home. Rutgers has only scored an average of 59 points per game in their last five overall, and that's not likely gonna be good enough. Rutgers has failed to cover in five straight road games, and the Nittany Lions are 19-7-1 ATS in their last 27 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-25-23 | St. Mary's v. Gonzaga -5 | Top | 68-77 | Win | 100 | 20 h 29 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on GONZ. |
|||||||
02-24-23 | St. Peter's v. Canisius -190 | Top | 53-66 | Win | 100 | 11 h 44 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Canisius. The Golden Griffins have won eight of their last 10 versus MAAC rivals St. Peters, and even last year's talented squad that went to the Sweet Sixteen lost at Canisius. This Peacocks team has taken a major step back, going 3-11 ATS in their last 14 road games. The home team has covered in five of the last six head to head meetings, and when you look at the recent play from the Griffins it inspires plenty of confidence. Prior to a one point loss on the road at Mount St. Mary's, they won outright over Rider and Quinnipiac. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-23-23 | Northeastern v. Drexel -5 | Top | 48-75 | Win | 100 | 12 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Drexel. The Dragons host Northeastern in their final home game of the season, and they have owned this team in recent years. Drexel defeated the Huskies by 21 points on the road earlier this season. They won at home versus Northeastern by 16 points last February. They are 4-0 SU and 4-0 ATS in this series over the last three seasons. The Huskies are coming off a home win over Conference bottom feeder CWM, and they are 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games following an ATS win. Drexel lost it's last game at Hampton, and they are 22-7 ATS in their last 29 games following a straight up loss. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-23 | New Mexico v. Boise State UNDER 146 | 77-82 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. New Mexico beat Boise State by a score of 81-79 in overtime earlier this season, but only 144 points were scored in regulation in that game. We see a total of 146 here in the rematch, despite the fact that the under is 5-2 in the previous seven head to head meetings. New Mexico is averaging over 81 points per game this season, but they have lost four of their last five averaging just over 75 points per game during that span. They face a Boise State team that is holding opponents to less than 60 points per game while going 12-1 at home. In their last three games at Boise, the Lobos have scored 52,53 and 61 points. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-23 | Fordham -132 v. Loyola-Chicago | Top | 71-69 | Win | 100 | 19 h 21 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Fordham. The Rams are just 2.5 games out of first place in the A-10, and they come into Loyola as winners of eight of their last 10. During that span they have road wins at Duquesne, La Salle, Davidson and St. Bonaventure. They are a small favorite here on the road versus the last place team in the conference, and Loyola has lost it's last two home games by double digits. The Ramblers are 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games, and have failed to cover in 19 of their last 27 overall. The Rams are 7-1 ATS in their last eight road games versus a team with a losing home record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-23 | Vanderbilt -132 v. LSU | Top | 77-84 | Loss | -132 | 18 h 45 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Vanderbilt. Vandy comes in red hot, winning their last five games. They are now in a position to possibly make the NCAA Tournament, but they likely need to run the table. It starts tonight at LSU, a team that has lost 13 straight games. Vandy has won back to back road games at Florida and South Carolina, and they are 37-17-1 ATS in their last 55 road games. The Tigers are 6-20 ATS in their last 26 home games and they have failed to cover in 16 of their last 21 overall. Two teams trending in opposite directions, I know who I'll put my money on. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-23 | Providence v. Connecticut UNDER 143.5 | 69-87 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Friars won at home by a score of 73-61 over UCONN back in the beginning of January, falling well short of the total listed at 142.5. We see a similar total for tonight's rematch in Connecticut, despite the fact that these teams haven't scored a combined 140 points in any of the last five head to head meetings. The Friars have gone under in five of their last seven road games, and seven of their last 10 coming off a loss. The Huskies have failed to reach the total in five of their last six versus a team with a winning record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-21-23 | Indiana v. Michigan State UNDER 136 | 65-80 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 39 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Spartans are 10-2 at home, and they have allowed fewer than 60 points per game during that span. They have gone under in six straight home games, and the under is 6-0 in their last six coming off a loss. The Hoosiers have gone under in four straight overall, and five straight on the road. Both teams come in averaging well below 70 points per game in their last five overall, and I don't expect either team to score 70 here in East Lansing. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-21-23 | Baylor v. Kansas State UNDER 146.5 | 65-75 | Win | 100 | 20 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Wildcats are the underdog at home here versus Baylor, despite a 14-1 home record. Kansas State has held opponents to just 60 points per game at home, and they have only scored an average of 67 points per game in their last five overall. When these two teams played in Manhattan last season, the bookmakers set the total at 136. They came up short of the number in that game, and the total for tonight's game is almost 10 points higher. They under is 5-0 in the Wildcats last five home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-23 | Iowa v. Northwestern +1.5 | 60-80 | Win | 100 | 16 h 49 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NW. The Wildcats sit above Iowa in the BIG10 standings, and they are 12-4 overall at home. Their last two home games were outright wins over Purdue and Indiana, and yet unranked Iowa comes in as a favorite. It might have something to do with the fact that Iowa has won nine straight meetings between the two teams dating back to 2017. That's something not likely lost by the Wildcats who look like they should be the favorite in this game. The Hawkeyes are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 road games, and the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Iowa is just 3-5 SU on the road. Wrong team favored! GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-23 | Ohio State v. Purdue -12 | 55-82 | Win | 100 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Purdue. Ohio State is reeling! They have lost 12 of their last 13 overall and they are 1-8 SU on the road. They aren't just losing, they are getting blown out. The Buckeyes have covered the spread just once in their last 12 games, and they have failed to cover in seven straight on the road. Asking the Boilermakers to win by double digits here doesn't seem unreasonable at all. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-23 | North Carolina v. NC State -130 | 69-77 | Win | 100 | 3 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NCST. The Tar Heels are just 2-6 on the road while NC State is 13-1 at home. The Wolfpack are outscoring opponents by an average margin of 17 point per game at home. The home team is 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS in the last five head to head meetings. The Tar Heels are likely getting too much respect for past performance, as this year's squad doesn't justify being a near pickem on the road here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Michigan State v. Michigan UNDER 134.5 | 72-84 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Wolverines only scored 53 points in a 59-53 loss at East Lansing back in January. The good news for Michigan fans is that the home team has won nine straight head to head meetings between these two teams. Michigan State is scoring just 60 points per game in their last five overall, and they have held opponents to fewer than 60 points per game during that span. The Wolverines have failed to score 70 in four of their last five versus Sparty. Expect points to be hard to come by here in this rivalry game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Oklahoma State v. TCU UNDER 141 | 75-100 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Horned Frogs have struggled since losing leading scorer Mike Miles. They have only scored an average of 67.4 points per game in their last five overall. They still have a solid home record going 11-3 straight up and holding opponents to just 62.1 points per game. The Oklahoma State Cowboys are strong defensively even on the road, where they have held opponents to just 66 points per game. The total has been listed below 140 in each of the last 10 head to head meetings between these teams, and this appears to be a rather inflated number. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Iowa State v. Kansas State -160 | Top | 55-61 | Win | 100 | 5 h 5 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on K-State. The Wildcats have lost four of their five, but three of those losses came on the road. They host Iowa State, and the Cyclones have lost five in a row on the road. Kansas State is 13-1 SU at home, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 15 points per game. They are allowing just 60 points per game at home, while the Cyclones are scoring less than 65 points per game on the road. The Wildcats are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games, while the Cyclones have failed to cover in six of their last eight overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Illinois v. Indiana UNDER 144.5 | 68-71 | Win | 100 | 12 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Hoosiers beat Illinois by a score of 80-65 back in January, but they shot 62 percent from the field in that game, and I don't like their chances of repeating that performance. Illinois won at Indiana the last time they played there by a score of 74-57 last February. The total went under the number of 137 in that game, and we see a much higher total here in today's game. The Hoosiers come in scoring less than 65 points per game in their last five overall, and they have held opponents to fewer than 63 points per game at home. I am expecting a defensive battle here in this revenge game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Texas Tech v. West Virginia UNDER 146 | 78-72 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 43 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Red Raiders have lost six of seven on the road, and they are scoring less than 64 points per game during that span. They scored just 61 in a home loss to the Mountaineers back in January. They went under the number of 139 in that game, and the bookmakers have sent the total at 145.5 for today's game. That number is far higher than we have seen in any of the previous 10 head to head meetings. In fact the total was lower than 140 in nine of those 10 contests. I expect to see another low scoring game between these two teams. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-17-23 | Quinnipiac v. Siena -165 | 66-63 | Loss | -165 | 13 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Sienna. |
|||||||
02-16-23 | Ohio State v. Iowa -8 | 75-92 | Win | 100 | 21 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on IOWA. The Buckeyes are now 1-11 in their last 12 games overall. They are coming off a 21-point home loss to Michigan State, and now they are playing on the road at Iowa Thursday. This is a revenge game for the Hawkeyes who lost 93-77 at Ohio State in January. Ohio State has struggled to score, averaging just 60 points per game in their last five overall. That's 20 points [er game less than Iowa has scored during that same span. The Hawkeyes are 12-2 SU at home, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 15 points in those games. The Buckeyes have failed to cover in six straight road games, and they are 0-11 ATS in their last 11 losses. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-23 | TCU v. Iowa State -175 | 59-70 | Win | 100 | 14 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ISU. The Horned Frogs have lost four of five games since leading scorer Mike Miles went down with a knee injury. They are in a tough spot here on the road at Iowa State, who is 12-1 SU at home this season. The Cyclones are outscoring opponents by almost 20 points per game at home, and they are holding teams to just 54 points per game on their home floor. The Horned Frogs lost their last road game by 21 points at Kansas State. I'll take the home team. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-23 | Indiana v. Northwestern +1.5 | 62-64 | Win | 100 | 13 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on NW. So I had Michigan on Saturday, and they lost 62-61 at home to Indiana. The Wolverines failed to score in the final five minutes of that game. I want to go against the Hoosiers again here as they are the favorite on the road at Northwestern. The Wildcats are 11-4 at home, while Indiana has a losing record on the road. These two teams have the exact same record overall and in conference. Northwestern is 3-1 straight up in the last four versus Indiana, and the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. I think this is a situation where the wrong team is favored. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-23 | St Bonaventure v. Fordham -190 | 63-78 | Win | 100 | 11 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Fordham. The Rams are the favorite here in a home game against St. Bonaventure, and prior to this season the Bonnies had won and covered in eight straight meetings between these teams. The Bonnies have been a powerhouse in the A10 for years, but this isn't the same team we have seen in recent seasons. This year's squad has lost 8-of-10 on the road, and they are just 13-13 overall. Fordham on the other hand is 15-2 at home and 20-5 overall. One of their wins came at St. Bonnies by a score of 79-68. The Rams are 7-1 ATS in their last eight overall, and they are 24-7-1 ATS in their last 32 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-14-23 | LSU v. Georgia -175 | Top | 63-65 | Win | 100 | 16 h 55 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on UGA. The Georgia Bulldogs are 12-2 at home, and they host an LSU team that is 0-6 on the road. Georgia is coming off a home win over Kentucky, and some might say that sets them up for a let down here. I think at this point in the season a home game against a team with a 1-11 conference record is more of an opportunity than a spot we would see a let down. The Tigers are 8-20-1 ATS in their last 29 games overall, and they are coming off a 74-62 home loss to Texas A&M. They are 0-7 ATS in their last seven coming off a double digit home loss. The home team has covered in four of the last five head to head meetings. |
|||||||
02-13-23 | Miami-FL v. North Carolina -175 | 80-72 | Loss | -175 | 18 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on UNC. There is no doubt that this isn't most mighty of UNC Tar Heel teams, but they are still 11-1 at home in Chapel Hill. They are a short favorite in tonight's home game against Miami, and we've been waiting a while for this Hurricanes team to suffer a let down. This is a perfect spot to face a Miami team that is a little inflated right now. They have lost four of their last five at Chapel Hill, and the Tar Heels have outscored the opposition by an average margin of 14 points per game at home. I'll take the unranked home favorite versus the ranked underdog. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-12-23 | Youngstown State v. Cleveland State OVER 145.5 | 78-81 | Win | 100 | 13 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Youngstown State Penguins lead the Horizon in scoring averaging over 83 points per game. They will play at Cleveland State, and the Vikings are a team more known for their defensive prowess. This battle of conflicting styles might still yield plenty of points here on Sunday. The last game between these teams ended with the Penguins winning 85-71. Cleveland State has averaged over 74 points per game in their last five overall. This number looks incredibly low when you consider the over is 12-4 in Vikings last 16 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-11-23 | Indiana v. Michigan -145 | 62-61 | Loss | -145 | 15 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Michigan. Michigan and Indiana are in a four way tie for second place in the BIG10. The Wolverines have covered the spread in six of their last seven home games, and they host a Hoosiers team that is 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games. The Hoosiers beat Michigan last March, but the Wolverines had won the previous nine meetings outright. Michigan averages almost 75 points per game at home, while the Hoosiers have scored just 67.8 points per game on the road. This should be a good game, but I'll take the home team to come away with the victory. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-10-23 | Fairfield v. Rider -195 | 57-58 | Win | 100 | 18 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Rider. They Rider Broncs are eyeing the NCAA Tournament, and they have a home game tonight against Fairfield. The Broncs have won seven straight, moving into first place in the Metro Atlantic. One of those wins came at Fairfield, and that was a close game. It might bot be as close here as the Broncs are 6-2 at home and they have won their home games by an average margin of 11 points. The Stags have lost seven of 10 on the road, and they bring a three game losing streak into tonight's game. The Stags are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a ATS loss. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-08-23 | Wisconsin v. Penn State -185 | 79-74 | Loss | -185 | 12 h 40 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on PSU. The Badgers won 63-60 at home versus Penn State back in January, but they lost their last game at Penn State by double digits. I like the Nittany Lions to blow the doors off here in this revenge spot at home. Penn State comes in with an 11-1 home record, and they have outscored opponents by an average margin of 14 points in those games. Their last home game was a blowout win over Michigan, and they scored 49 points in the first half of that contest. The Badgers have failed to cover in 11 of their last 12 overall and nine of their last 10 coming off a loss. THe Nittany Lions are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 home games. I love Penn State in this revenge spot. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-23 | Iowa State v. West Virginia -155 | 71-76 | Win | 100 | 18 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on WVU. The Cyclones won at home versus West Virginia last February, but the Mountaineers had won six straight in this series before that. Playing at Morgantown is a tough task, and I like the home favorite here in this BIG12 rivalry game. Iowa State has lost five of seven road games this season, scoring just 63.6 points per contest. That surely wont be good enough against a West Virginia team that is 10-3 at home, averaging over 79 points per game on their home floor and outscoring opponents by an average margin of a dozen points in those games. Iowa State lost here last February by a score of 79-63 (matching the exact home away splits for each team). GL, Jesse Schule |

02-08-23 | Tennessee v. Vanderbilt +10.5 | 65-66 | Win | 100 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Vanderbilt. |
|||||||
02-07-23 | TCU v. Kansas State -4.5 | 61-82 | Win | 100 | 23 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on K-State. |
|||||||
02-07-23 | North Carolina v. Wake Forest +1.5 | 85-92 | Win | 100 | 20 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on WAKE. The Tar Heels come in as Blue Blood road favorites here, despite their 2-5 road record. They have lost back to back games at Wake in 2022 and 2020. The home team is 5-0 straight up in the last five meetings in this series, and I expect that trend to continue here. The Tar Heels are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 road games, and they have failed to cover in four straight on the road versus a team with a winning home record. The Demon Deacons are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games overall, and this appears to be a case of the wrong team favored. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-07-23 | Marquette v. Connecticut -181 | 72-87 | Win | 100 | 12 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on UCONN. |
|||||||
02-06-23 | Duke v. Miami-FL OVER 145.5 | 59-81 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 39 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Duke Blue Devils lost 68-66 at home to Miami earlier this season, and while this is a revenge game for Duke, I expect a higher score here in Miami. The over is 18-8 in the Hurricanes last 26 versus a team with a winning record, and they have gone over in four of their last five home games. The Canes have a 12-0 home record, and they are averaging over 82 points per game at home. They beat the Blue Devils 78-74 in Miami last January, and we should expect a similar result here this time around. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-05-23 | Northwestern v. Wisconsin -150 | 54-52 | Loss | -150 | 13 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Wisconsin. The Badgers lost 66-63 at Northwestern on January 22, and this sets up a nice revenge angle for Wisconsin here at home Sunday. Wisconsin has owned the Wildcats in recent meetings, winning seven straight head to head prior to the last meeting. Wisconsin is 7-3 at home this season, holding opponents to just 61.3 points per game. It's possibly worth noting that all the Badgers other conference losses have come against teams that are ahead of Northwestern in the BIG10 standings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-05-23 | Ohio State v. Michigan -175 | 69-77 | Win | 100 | 7 h 0 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on MICH. The Wolverines are in the middle of the pack in the BIG10, and they will host an Ohio State team that appears to be in a downward spiral. The Buckeyes have lost eight of their last nine overall and five straight on the road. They also failed to cover in every single one of those losses. They come in with a 1-6 road record, averaging just 67.4 points in those games. Michigan has an 8-3 home record, and they have outscored opponents by an average margin of eight points in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-04-23 | Miami-FL v. Clemson -135 | 78-74 | Loss | -135 | 13 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Clemson. The Tigers are in first place in the ACC, and they are 12-0 at home. They are just a slight favorite in Saturday's home game against Miami, and the Hurricanes are 4-4 on the road. Clemson has covered in five of their last six home games, and they are outscoring opponents by an average margin of 13 points per game on their home court. The home team is 8-3-1 ATS in the last 12 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-04-23 | Illinois v. Iowa -150 | 79-81 | Win | 100 | 14 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on IOWA. Illinois sits second in the BIG10, but they are in a tough spot on the road at Iowa. The Hawkeyes are 11-2 at home, and the home team is 8-1 SU in the last nine head to head meetings in this series. Iowa has covered the spread in seven of their last eight overall, and the Hawkeyes are 45-20-3 ATS in their last 68 home games. They average almost 90 points per game at home, and they have outscored opponents by an average margin of 17 points in their home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-04-23 | TCU v. Oklahoma State -170 | 73-79 | Win | 100 | 11 h 29 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on OKST. The Cowboys are just a short favorite at home versus TCU, and the home team is 9-1 SU in the last 10 meetings in this series. Oklahoma State owns a 9-2 home record, going 8-1 ATS in their last nine home games. The Horned Frogs won't have leading scorer Mike Miles Jr. who is sidelined with a knee injury. The junior guard averages over 18 points per game, and logged a team high 30 minutes per game. It's a big loss for TCU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-02-23 | Stanford v. Utah -6.5 | 78-72 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 37 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on UTAH. The Utes are just a game out of first place in the PAC12, and they host bottom feeders Stanford tonight. I have to believe Utah is at least 7-points better than Stanford. They beat the Cardinal by a score of 71-66 at Stanford earlier this season. Stanford comes in off four straight home wins, most recently against last place California. The Cardinal are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up win. The Utes have outscored opponents by an average margin of 17 points while going 10-3 at home. The home team is 10-3-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-01-23 | Oklahoma State v. Oklahoma -170 | Top | 71-61 | Loss | -170 | 20 h 26 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Oklahoma. Some might suggest that the Sooners are primed for a let down after upsetting Alabama in a 24-point blowout win at home in their last game. I will push back on that, as it's a rivalry game in a revenge spot after they got blown out in Stillwater earlier in the year. The home team has won straight up in eight of the last 10 meetings, and the Cowboys are 2-5 straight up on the road. The home team is 21-8-1 in the last 30 head to head meetings. Oklahoma State struggles to score on the road (averaging 67.3 points per game) and I don't think they can score enough to keep up to the Sooners here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-31-23 | Virginia Tech v. Miami-FL -175 | 83-92 | Win | 100 | 12 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 10* play on MIA. The Canes are 11-0 at home, while the Hokies are 0-6 on the road. This has all the signs of a close game but given the home away splits I gotta back the home team as a short favorite. The Hokies have scored an average of 67.5 points per game on the road, 13.5 points fewer than the Canes are scoring at home. The Hokies are 10-26-1 ATS in their last 37 road games, and just 2-7 ATS in their last nine overall. It's asking too much for them to get the upset here IMO. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-29-23 | Michigan v. Penn State -3 | 61-83 | Win | 100 | 9 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on PSU. The Wolverines are 1-3 SU on the road, and they are just 1-5 ATS in their last six game overall. They are at Penn State, and the Nittany Lions are 10-1 SU at home, and have covered in 18 of their last 24 home games. Penn State is coming off a blowout loss at Rutgers, and the Nittany Lions are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up loss. Michigan has failed to cover in four of the last five head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-28-23 | NC State v. Wake Forest -170 | 79-77 | Loss | -170 | 12 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Wake. The Wolfpack are coming off an 85-82 home win over Notre Dame, and they are just 7-20-1 ATS in their last 28 games following a straight up win. They are Wolfpack are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 road games. Wake is strong at home, with a 10-1 record this season. They are coming off an 81-79 loss at Pittsburgh, and they are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up loss. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-26-23 | Iowa v. Michigan State -140 | 61-63 | Win | 100 | 15 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Michigan State. The Spartans have lost three of their last four, but two of those losses came on the road, and a home loss to BIG10 leaders Purdue by a single point. They host Iowa tonight, and this looks like a great spot for the home team to get back on track. The Hawkeyes are a far better team on their home court, and they have failed to cover in six of their last seven road games. The Spartans are also stronger at home, and they have covered in five straight on their home court. Their most recent home game was a double digit win over Rutgers. Michigan State is 20-5 straight up in their last 25 games in East Lansing. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-25-23 | St. Joe's v. George Washington -4 | 91-92 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on GW. The Colonials will be a short home favorite versus St. Joe's on Wednesday, and some might think this looks like a let down spot coming off a win over Dayton. It might be a bigger let down for the Red Hawks who have won three straight versus conference bottom feeders UMass, LaSalle and Loyola Chicago. The Hawks are 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight road games, and they have lost three of their last four at George Washington. The home team has covered in five of the last six head to head meetings, and this looks like a short line. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-24-23 | Ohio State v. Illinois -3.5 | 60-69 | Win | 100 | 17 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Illinois. The Buckeyes have lost five of eight games in the BIG10, and they have lost four of five on the road. They might not have leading rebounder Zed Key for tonight's game in Illinois, as his status is questionable with a lower body injury. They are coming off a home win over Iowa, and they are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up win. Illinois is 9-2 straight up at home, and they have covered the spread in seven of their last 10 home games. This looks like a short line. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-21-23 | Texas Tech +5 v. Kansas State | 58-68 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Texas Tech. Kansas State is coming off an 83-82 home win over Kansas, setting them up for a let down here against Texas Tech. The Red Raiders are still looking for their first conference win, but they are healthier now than they have been over the last few weeks. Their last road game was a 72-70 loss at Texas. The Red Raiders are 8-2 straight up in the last 10 meetings, and three of those wins came at Manhattan. The underdog has covered in five straight in this series. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-19-23 | Rutgers v. Michigan State -145 | 57-70 | Win | 100 | 16 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on MSU. The Spartans have lost back to back games, but they covered against Purdue, and they gave Illinois a run for their money in Champaign. A home game against Rutgers is expected to be another close game, but ultimately home court should be enough to allow the Spartans to get back into the winner's circle. The Scarlet Knights have lost five straight at East Lansing, and they are just 2-8 straight up in the last 10 meetings. The Spartans have covered in four straight home games, and five of their last six overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-18-23 | Florida v. Texas A&M -3.5 | Top | 52-54 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Texas A&M. The Aggies are undefeated in the SEC, and they are 8-1 at home. They have already beat the Gators in Florida this season, and they won both meetings versus Florida last season. The Gators are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games versus a team with a winning home record. The Aggies are 22-8 ATS in their last 30 games overall, and they are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 versus Florida. The Aggies have outscored opponents by an average margin of 19 points at home. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-16-23 | Montana v. Eastern Washington -165 | Top | 57-64 | Win | 100 | 22 h 59 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on EWU. The Eagles are undefeated in conference play, and they look good as just a small home favorite here tonight. The Eagles are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall, and they have covered the spread in five of their last six home games. The Grizzlies are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 road games, and they are just 3-3 in the Big Sky. One of their losses came on the road at Northern Arizona, a team with a 5-14 record. The Eagles are averaging 92 points per game at home this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-15-23 | Ohio State v. Rutgers -168 | 64-68 | Win | 100 | 14 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights have won 52 of their last 62 home games, and they host a struggling Buckeyes team on Sunday. Ohio State has lost three straight, and they have just one win in three road games. The Scarlet Knights are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall, and they are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games. The home team is 7-1 straight up in the last eight head to head meetings. Rutgers has held opponents to just 52 points per game at home this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-14-23 | Colorado State v. UNLV -5.5 | 82-81 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on UNLV. The Rebels host the Rams in a matchup between two teams sitting at the bottom of the standings in the Mountain West. While both teams have just one conference win, the Rebels losses have come against Mountain West powerhouses San Diego State, Boise State and on the road at San Jose State. The Rams on the other hand are coming off a double digit home loss to Air Force. The Rams are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games, and they have failed to cover in five straight versus teams with a winning record. The Rebels are coming off a home loss to Boise State, and they are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up loss. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-14-23 | Duke v. Clemson -132 | Top | 64-72 | Win | 100 | 16 h 10 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Clemson. The Tigers are sitting in first place in the ACC, and they are undefeated at home (9-0). The home team is 8-2 straight up in the last 10 head to head meetings, and this year's Blue Devils team is not your typical Duke squad we saw under Coach K. Duke has lost two of three road games so far, failing to cover in all three. They lost at Wake Forest by double digits, and Clemson beat that same Demon Deacons team by 20 points. Starting PG Jeremy Roach, who leads the Blue Devils in assists is expected to miss this game with a foot injury. I'll take the Tigers to get the "W" at home. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-13-23 | Kent State -150 v. Ohio | Top | 70-65 | Win | 100 | 14 h 27 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on KENT. The Golden Flashes have won 19 of their last 23 conference games, and they are undefeated in the MAC so far this season. They have three seniors in their starting five, including their two leading scorers Sincere Carry and Malique Jacobs. This is the best team in the MAC, and I wouldn't be expecting them to lose many games this season whether at home or on the road. The Golden Flashes are 22-7-1 ATS in their last 30 games overall. The Bobcats are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up win. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-12-23 | San Francisco -132 v. Portland | 87-92 | Loss | -132 | 21 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on San Francisco. The Dons are 21-8 straight up at home the last two years, and they are coming off a two-point home loss to Gonzaga, followed up with a two-point win on the road at Loyola. The Dons are 4-1 straight up in their last five versus Portland, and they won both meetings at Portland during that span. The Dons are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games, while the Pilots are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall. The Pilots are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points, and they are coming off an 85-43 loss at St. Mary's. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-12-23 | Gonzaga v. BYU +7 | 75-74 | Win | 100 | 20 h 7 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on BYU. This will be the third consecutive road game for Gonzaga, after beating San Francisco by two points, and winning 81-76 at Santa Clara. Despite being 5-18-3 ATS in their last 26 games overall, they are asked to cover another big number on the road at BYU. I don't think the markets have yet caught up to the fact that this Gonzaga team is no longer in the elite class it has been in recent seasons. The Bulldogs are 3-15-3 ATS in their last 21 games following a straight up win, and they have failed to cover in four straight road games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-11-23 | Creighton v. Xavier -140 | 87-90 | Win | 100 | 10 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on XAV. The Musketeers are 8-1 at home, 13-3 overall and 5-0 in the Big East. They host Creighton and they are just a slight favorite tonight. Creighton has lost all three true road games, and history favors the home team in previous head to head meetings. Xavier won both meetings last season, winning 80-73 at home. The Musketeers are 4-1 straight up in their last five home games versus Creighton. This line should probably be a bit higher. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-10-23 | Texas Tech +7 v. Iowa State | Top | 50-84 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 45 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on TEXAS TECH. The Red Raiders will be shorthanded here at Iowa State, and they are already 0-3 in conference play. History suggests that this game will be close, and I think the bookmakers are overreacting to a few injuries here. Daniel Batcho and Pop Isaacs didn't play in an overtime loss to Oklahoma, but the Cyclones leading rebounder Aljaz Kunc has also missed the last three weeks. Texas Tech has won eight of the last 10 in this series, and both losses came in games decided by four points. The Cyclones are 3-0 in the BIG12, but two of those wins came in games decided by three points or less. I'll take the points! GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-08-23 | Niagara -150 v. Manhattan | 59-64 | Loss | -150 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Niagra. The Manhattan Jaspers have only won four games so far this season, and they host the Niagara Purple Eagles on Sunday. Niagara won 72-63 at Manhattan last year, and the Jaspers are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. The Purple Eagles are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Niagara already has won convincingly on the road at Quinnipiac and Farfield, while Manhattan is coming off back to back home losses to Canisius and Quinnipiac. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-06-23 | St. Peter's v. Siena -7.5 | 60-70 | Win | 100 | 19 h 43 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Siena. The Saints are undefeated in the MAAC, and they host St. Peters on Friday. This isn't the same Peacocks team that made noise in the NCAA Tournament last year. The Peacocks are 2-3 in the MAAC, and their wins have come against Manhattan and Quinnipiac, two of the worst teams in the country. St. Peters has failed to cover in eight straight road games, and the home team is 15-5 ATS in the last 20 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-05-23 | Indiana v. Iowa -1 | Top | 89-91 | Win | 100 | 20 h 40 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Iowa. The Hawkeyes are reeling after losing three straight, but a home game against BIG10 rivals Indiana looks like a good spot to get back on track. The home team is 5-1 straight up in the last six meetings between these teams. The Hoosiers have failed to cover in four straight overall, and four of five on the road. They have been playing without two starters, leading scorer Trayce-Jackson-Davis and PG Xavier Johnson. The Hawkeyes are 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games, and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 off a loss. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-04-23 | Connecticut v. Providence +5 | 61-73 | Win | 100 | 19 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Providence. The Huskies are no longer invincible, coming off their first loss of the season on the road at #22 ranked Xavier. They will be asked to cover a sizable number here on the road at unranked Providence. History favors the Friars, who are unbeaten at home, and unbeaten in the Big East. They have won four of their last five home games versus Connecticut, and the one loss came by a score of 82-79. The Huskies are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up loss, and the home team has covered in eight of the last 10 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-31-22 | Baylor -1 v. Iowa State | 62-77 | Loss | -117 | 11 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on BAY. The Cyclones will be a short home dog against undefeated Baylor, and some will think they look like a sharp play today. Iowa State has covered the spread in four straight meetings, but they have lost six straight and nine of the last 10 in this series. I have this line at -5.5 based on my numbers, and getting the Bears at a pickem is too goo to pass on. Baylor has a starting PG listed as questionable with a concussion, but the Cyclones leading rebounder Aljaz Kunc is out with a finger injury. The Bears are 33-16-2 ATS in their last 51 road games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-28-22 | Alabama -130 v. Mississippi State | 78-67 | Win | 100 | 19 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Crimson Tide. Alabama has already beat two #1 ranked teams this season, one of those wins coming on the road at Houston. A road game in the SEC is never easy, but they should be the better team here in Starkville. The Bulldogs lost two of their top three scorers from last season to graduation, and they didn't really bring anyone in to replace last season's leading scorer Iverson Molinar. An 11-1 record has Mississippi State ranked in the Top 25, but don't expect them to remain ranked. They haven't played anybody, and they are coming off a 58-52 loss to Drake. They have failed to cover in seven of their last eight overall, and they are 0-7 ATS in their last seven home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-22-22 | Illinois -6.5 v. Missouri | 71-93 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ILL. The Missouri Tigers look pretty good with a 10-1 record, until you examine who they beat (10 unranked teams), and how they lost (by 28 points to Kansas). Illinois has played a much tougher schedule, with wins over #2 Texas and #8 UCLA. Mizzouri lost by 26 points in this exact game at this exact venue exactly one year ago (to the day). Illinois has lost five straight versus ranked teams, and four of those losses came by double digits. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-21-22 | Kent State -170 v. New Mexico State | 73-63 | Win | 100 | 11 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Kent State. The Golden Flashes are 8-3, with two of their three losses coming against Top 25 teams. In fact one of those losses was a 49-44 loss at Houston. That's an impressive result when you consider Houston was shortly after ranked #1 nationally. I think Kent State is more than four points better than New Mexico State on a neutral court. The Golden Flashes are 22-5-1 ATS in their last 28 games overall, and they have played plenty of tough teams during that stretch. The Aggies are 6-1 ATS in their last seven neutral site games, but strength of schedule is a concern. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-20-22 | Virginia -140 v. Miami-FL | 64-66 | Loss | -140 | 12 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on UVA. The Virginia Cavaliers are coming off their first loss of the season to Houston. It was a close game, but the Cougars ended up taking a 69-61 road victory. The Cavs try to get back on track on the road in Miami today, and at first glance the Canes look like a formidable opponent. Miami is 11-1 overall and 8-0 at home. That sounds great until you check their schedule and see that they haven't really played anyone. Their first game against a ranked team will come against a Cavs team that has had their number in recent seasons. Virginia is 6-0 straight up in the last six meetings, so I like them to get the W here off a loss. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-17-22 | Alabama -125 v. Gonzaga | 90-100 | Loss | -125 | 7 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on BAMA. Call it a revenge game if you want, but after beating the Bulldogs in Seattle last year, the Tide are just a slight favorite in Saturday's game in Birmingham Alabama. I've long been saying that Gonzaga is overrated, and that opinion is justified by the fact that they are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 neutral site games, 3-15-3 ATS in their last 21 games overall and 1-12-3 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win. Gonzaga has faced ranked teams four times so far this season, losing three of those four games. Alabama has a pair of wins over the #1 ranked teams in the country, and they beat the #1 ranked Cougars in Houston. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-14-22 | Ohio +13 v. Florida | 48-82 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Ohio. The Bobcats lost their first four road games, but they are coming off an 81-79 win at Youngstown state for their first road win of the year. They lost by just four points at #20 ranked Michigan in Ann Arbor. This is not a true road game, as they face the Gators in Tampa rather than Gainesville. The Gators are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games overall, and they have failed to cover in six straight neutral site games. This line looks a little inflated considering that the Gators have lost four of their last eight games outright. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-14-22 | DePaul +1.5 v. Duquesne | 55-66 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a free play on DePaul. The Blue Demons will be an underdog on the road at Duquesne tonight, and you could call this a revenge spot since DePaul beat the Dukes by 20 points in Chicago last year. DePaul has a pair of senior starters that average over 15 points per game. Umoja Gibson is a transfer from Oklahoma, while Javan Johnson transferred from Iowa State midway through last season. The Dukes have lost back to back home games to Marshall and New Mexico State, and both losses came by a double digit margin. The Dukes are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games, while the Blue Demons are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 road games. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-11-22 | Oklahoma State v. Virginia Tech -1 | 65-70 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on VT. The Hokies are 9-1, and they are 2-0 in neutral site games. This is an experienced squad with three senior starters all scoring in double digits. They come off a 77-49 win over Dayton, and Grant Basile led all scorers with 23 points on 9-of-17 shooting. The Cowboys are 6-3, coming off a win over Sam Houston. The Cowboys are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win. While these teams haven't played since 2012, the Hokies have won four straight versus Oklahoma State. This team won 13 of their last 15 games last season, beating Duke in the Final of the ACC Tournament. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-10-22 | Arizona v. Indiana | Top | 89-75 | Win | 100 | 12 h 20 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Arizona. The Wildcats are 7-1, with a pair of wins over ranked teams. They beat San Diego State and Creighton before losing their first true road game at Utah. They host the #14 ranked Indiana Hoosiers in a neutral site game tonight, but Las Vegas might feel like a second home to the Wildcats. This Arizona team was 11-1 in non-conference games last year, beating #4 Michigan right here in Las Vegas. Indiana might struggle to match the scoring prowess of a Wildcats team that is averaging 91.5 points per game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-08-22 | Michigan v. Minnesota UNDER 136 | 90-75 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Under. The Minnesota Golden Gophers have scored just 63 points per game. There are 371 teams in college basketball that score more than that. They are pretty good defensively though, holding the opposition to just 66 points per game. It's not surprising that they have failed to reach the total in five straight home games. They host a Michigan team that has scored just 69 points over it's last five games. Losing their starting PG Jaelin Llewellyn for the rest of the season won't help. I'd be surprised if either of these teams gets to 70 points. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-07-22 | Dayton v. Virginia Tech -7.5 | 49-77 | Win | 100 | 19 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VT. This is a revenge spot for the home team, as Dayton beat the Hokies in Ohio last year by a score of 62-57. They didn't fare so well in non-conference road games, losing at SMU and Ole Miss by a combined 16 points. This will be just their second road game this season, losing 60-52 at UNLV last month. The Flyers are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall. The Hokies are 6-0 at home, and the average margin of victory in those games is 17 points. This should be a double digit win for the home team. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-03-22 | Wichita State v. Kansas State -6.5 | Top | 50-55 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 17 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on K-State. The Wildcats are coming off their first loss of the season, on the road at Butler. A home game against Wichita State looks like a good spot to get back on track. Wichita State had three players score in double digits last season, and all three are gone. One went to the NBA (Tyson Ettienne) and two transfered. The Wildcats have three senior starters averaging in double digits, and this gives them a huge edge in experience. Kansas State has won both their home games by double digits, and the Shockers are likely to be overmatched here in Manhattan. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-02-22 | South Dakota State v. Kent State -7 | 68-83 | Win | 100 | 15 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on KENT. It comes as no surprise that Kent State is off to a good start, with an overall record of 5-2, and a 4-0 home record. They have three senior starters, all scoring in double digits. The Golden Flashes are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 home games, and they are 19-6-1 ATS in their last 26 games overall. They host South Dakota State, and the Jack Rabbits have failed to cover in five straight versus a team with a winning record. South Dakota State lost two of it's top three scorers from last season via transfer, and the other to graduation. This should prove to be a mismatch. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-30-22 | CS-Fullerton v. Seattle University -9.5 | 62-69 | Loss | -115 | 21 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Seattle. This line looks a little short when you look at the overall body of work for Seattle University. The Redhawks suffered their first loss of the season on the road at Washington over the weekend. They are 5-1 overall, and 3-0 at home. They have outscored opponents by more than 30 points per game at home, and they have faced some strong teams. They won by a dozen in a home win over Portland State, a team that has a pair of wins over the PAC12 already. They also beat a Portland Pilots team by a dozen on the road, and the Pilots have a win over Villanova followed up by a one point loss to Michigan State. The Titans lost their last road game by 16 points at North Dakota, and another double digit defeat should be expected here. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-28-22 | Texas Southern v. Kansas UNDER 139.5 | 55-87 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under. The Kansas Jayhawks are off a 64-50 upset loss to Tennessee, and they have only scored an average of 74.4 points per game so far, ranking 150th nationally. Of course their defense has been stellar, and they host a Texas Southern team that has scored less than 53 points per game in three losses to Top 25 teams. All three of those games went under. Texas Southern has gone under in six straight overall, and the under is 18-7-1 in the Tigers last 26 games following a straight up loss. The under is 9-2 in Jayhawks last 11 games following a loss. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-27-22 | Iowa State v. Connecticut -5 | Top | 53-71 | Win | 100 | 21 h 58 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on UCONN. The #20 Huskies are 7-0, and they beat #18 Alabama by 15 points on Friday at the Phil Knight Invitational. They face an unranked Iowa State team that just upset #1 North Carolina, and this could be a let down spot for the Cyclones. Iowa State made 9-of-20 three-point attempts in the upset win over the Tar Heels. I don't like their chances of hitting 45 percent from beyond the arc here in this game. The Huskies have the experience, the shooters, and the coaching to take down this scrappy Cyclones team. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-25-22 | Butler v. NC State +1 | Top | 61-76 | Win | 100 | 12 h 11 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on NCSTATE. The Butler Bulldogs didn't get a lot of returning talent from last year, and they did not look good in their first game against a ranked team. They scored 45 points on 32 percent shooting in a loss to Tennessee a few days ago. The Wolfpack have more experience, and that may be what allowed them to hang with #3 ranked Kansas. NC State comes in averaging over 80 points per game, while the Bulldogs average just slightly above the national average (71.5). The Wolfpack currently rank 1st in the ACC in scoring, and near the top in FG percentage, FT percentage and three-point shooting. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-24-22 | Alabama v. Michigan State +4 | 81-70 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on MSU. Alabama is powered by a pair of talented freshmen, and they face their first real test here in the Phil Knight Invitational on Thanksgiving. Michigan State has a ton of experience, with their three top scorers all seniors. The Spartans have already faced two teams ranked in the Top 5, winning outright by double digits versus #4 Kentucky and losing by a point to #2 Gonzaga. They also beat unranked Villanova by a bucket. The experience in close games early in the season is invaluable. Alabama is 4-0 versus unranked competition, and the Crimson Tide are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-24-22 | Iowa State v. Villanova -1 | 81-79 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VILL. The 3-0 Cyclones are facing the 2-2 Villanova Wildcats at the Phil Knight Invitational in an afternoon game on Thanksgiving. The Wildcats were 1 bucket away from beating #12 ranked Michigan State at East Lansing. This Villanova team made the Final Four last year, and they bring back plenty of key players from that team. Villanova is 5-1 ATS in their last six versus a team with a winning record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-22-22 | Syracuse v. St. John's -130 | 69-76 | Win | 100 | 14 h 41 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SJU. The Red Storm take on the Orange in Brooklym Tuesday at the Empire Classic, and history favors St. John's. The Red Storm are 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings versus Syracuse, and the Orange come in without most of the talent they had last season. They will miss the Boeheim brothers, who last year combined for an average of 30 points per game. Syracuse beat Richmond by a score of 74-71 in overtime yesterday. The Orange are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-21-22 | Buffalo v. George Mason UNDER 145.5 | Top | 82-74 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 39 m | Show |
This is a 4* play on Under. George Mason lost 66-62 to Belmont at the Paradise Jam at the UVI Sports & Fitness Center in the Virgin Islands on Saturday. In fact all four games at this venue over the weekend were low scoring, falling well short of 140 combined points. Neither of these two teams have been scoring regardless of the venue, Buffalo comes in averaging 69 points per game while the Patriots are averaging just 65 points per game. The Patriots are strong defensively, which might be why they have gone under in five of their last six games. This number looks way too high. GL, Jesse Schule |
