12-04-20 | North Dakota v. Minnesota UNDER 149 | 67-76 | Win | 100 | 20 h 17 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under. Minnesota looks impressive after three games, and they are a huge favorite against North Dakota. These teams met earlier last season, and the Gophers won that game of 79-56. The total for that game was listed at 138, more than 10 points lower than this year's meeting. This number looks a little inflated and I am making a value play by fading the big number. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-04-20 | Wisconsin -175 v. Marquette | 65-67 | Loss | -175 | 20 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Wisconsin. The Badgers are off to a good start, heading into Friday's game against Marquette with a perfect 3-0 record. They have played excellent defense in all three of those games, allowing an average of 55.7 points per game. This success is not surprising given the experience in the starting lineup. Their top three scorers are all seniors, and all three are scoring in double figures. Marquette is missing Markus Howard, who averaged almost 28 points per game last season. So far nobody has stepped up to fill in anywhere near that kind of production. I expect the Eagles to struggle against this veteran team. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-03-20 | Connecticut v. USC +1 | 61-58 | Loss | -100 | 18 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on USC. |

12-02-20 | Montana State v. Pacific UNDER 137 | 70-74 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under. The Pacific Tigers have a win and a loss so far, and they went under in both of those games. A combination of strong defense and not so strong offense seems to be a recipe for low scoring games. Hitting less than half of their free throws certainly has been a factor. Montana State scored 91 points in a win over UNLV in their opener, but they have gone under in nine of their last 11 after scoring 90 or more points. The under is 7-1 in the Tigers last eight games following an ATS loss, and they have failed to reach the total in five of their last seven home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-01-20 | Michigan State +4 v. Duke | 75-69 | Win | 100 | 17 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on MSU. Duke is loaded with freshman talent, but lacks experience early in the season. This was quite evident in their opening game against Coppin State. They turned the ball over a whopping 22 times, failing to cover as a 30-point favorite in an 81-71 win. The Spartans lost a lot of star power from last year's squad (Cassius Winston and Xavier Tillman), but Rocket Watson and Aaron Henry are back, and the addition of Joey Hauser gives them plenty of experience in their starting five. The Spartans are 4-0 ATS in their last four games as an underdog, and the underdog is 4-0 in the last four head to head meetings between these teams. I think it's to early in the year to back Duke's freshman as favorites. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-30-20 | Pacific v. Nevada UNDER 150 | 58-70 | Win | 100 | 22 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under. The Nevada Wolfpack have played excellent defense during a 2-0 start, holding their opponents to an average of just 57 points. A home game against Pacific should be a defensive battle, as the Tigers can also play strong defense. The under is 12-5 in the Tigers last 17 road games versus a team with a winning home record. The Wolfpack's last two games against teams from the WCC were losses to St. Mary's (68-63) and to BYU (75-42). Nevada has failed to reach the total in five straight against teams with a winning record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-29-20 | Oakland v. Michigan OVER 148.5 | 71-81 | Win | 100 | 13 h 26 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over. The Wolverines shot over 54 percent in a 96-82 win over Bowling Green in their first game of the season, and they might shoot out the lights again tonight against Oakland. The Golden Grizzlies are 0-3, and they have given up an average of 85 points in those losses. These two teams haven't played since 2011, but Michigan won that game by a score of 90-80. The over is 5-1 in the Wolverines last six overall, and the over is 11-4 in the Golden Grizzlies last 15 Sunday games. I expect this non-conference game to be another shootout. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-28-20 | LSU v. St. Louis UNDER 147 | 81-85 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under. The Bilikens won 15 of their 18 home games last season, and they are bringing back all their starters from last season. They host LSU Saturday, and the Tigers lost six of 10 road games last season, and they also bring back the majority of their starters. The Billikens are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 Saturday games, and 4-1 ATS in their last five home games. The under is 19-7-1 in Billikens last 27 Saturday games, and they allowed just 52 points in their win over SIU on Thursday. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-26-20 | Purdue v. Clemson UNDER 131.5 | 70-81 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 26 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Under. |

11-26-20 | Gonzaga -2.5 v. Kansas | 102-90 | Win | 100 | 18 h 41 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Gonzaga. |
|||||||
11-25-20 | Clemson -4 v. Mississippi State | 53-42 | Win | 100 | 16 h 15 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Clemson Tigers. Clemson finished just one game over .500 last season (16-15 overall) and they finished in the middle of the pack in the ACC. They might be a little better this season, returning three of their top four scorers, including leading scorer Aamir Simms. The Bulldogs aren't as fortunate. They had four starters score in double figures last season, and they lost all four of them. The Tigers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 neutral site games. The Bulldogs are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine neutral site games as an underdog. This Clemson team was good enough last season to get wins against the likes of Duke, North Carolina, Louisville and Florida State. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-11-20 | North Carolina -135 v. Syracuse | 53-81 | Loss | -135 | 12 h 1 m | Show | |
This is an 8 play on the Tar Heels. I had the Tar Heels versus Virginia Tech last nigtht, and here is what I said before that game: "North Carolina had a terrible season, but they did finish strong down the stretch. The Tar Heels had won three straight before losing 89-76 at Duke. They scored an average of over 80 points in their last five games, while the Hokies averaged less than 60 points per game in their last five overall. Virginia Tech lost five of their final six games. Injuries were a problem for the Tar Heels all year, but Cole Anthony and Garrison Brooks were healthy down the stretch. The Hokies are 2-12 ATS in their last 14 games overall, and they have failed to cover in six straight as an underdog. They are 2-8 straight up in their last 10 versus UNC." The Tar Heels have won nine straight against Syracuse. Take UNC. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-11-20 | Vanderbilt +9.5 v. Arkansas | 73-86 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 59 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Vanderbilt Commodores. Vanderbilt was dead last in the SEC this season, with a record of 3-15. They picked up two of those three wins in their last two games however, and they were quite competitive in March. They come into the conference tournament averaging 72 points per game in their last five overall. Only one of their last six games was a loss by double digits. The Razorbacks are an awfully big favorite for a team that has covered in just three of it's last 10 overall and is just 1-5 ATS in it's last six neutral site games. I'll take the hot team getting a bunch of points. Take Vanderbilt. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-10-20 | North Carolina -180 v. Virginia Tech | 78-56 | Win | 100 | 6 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 7* play on the Tar Heels. North Carolina had a terrible season, but they did finish strong down the stretch. The Tar Heels had won three straight before losing 89-76 at Duke. They scored an average of over 80 points in their last five games, while the Hokies averaged less than 60 points per game in their last five overall. Virginia Tech lost five of their final six games. Injuries were a problem for the Tar Heels all year, but Cole Anthony and Garrison Brooks were healthy down the stretch. The Hokies are 2-12 ATS in their last 14 games overall, and they have failed to cover in six straight as an underdog. They are 2-8 straight up in their last 10 versus UNC. Take UNC. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-20 | St. Mary's v. BYU -4 | 51-50 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 17 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the BYU Cougars. The Cougars are winners of nine straight, and they have score over 81 points per game in their last five overall. During their winning streak they have wins over Saint Mary's and Gonzaga. The Gaels are 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall, and they are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games as an underdog. The Gaels are 8-21 ATS in their last 29 neutral site games as an underdog. The Cougars are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games overall, abd they are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games as a favorite. Take BYU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-20 | San Francisco +13 v. Gonzaga | 77-81 | Win | 100 | 11 h 44 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the San Francisco Dons. The Bulldogs are a double digit favorite here against San Francisco, after beating the Dons in both regular season meetings. The game at San Francisco was close, decided by just four points. Now the Bulldogs have little to gain here, and the Dons have everything to play for. We should expect this game to be somewhat close. The Dons are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven neutral site games. The Bulldogs are 0-4 ATS in their last four neutral site games. The Dons are 5-2-1 ATS in their last eight neutral site games as an underdog. Take SF. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Elon v. William & Mary -4.5 | 68-63 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 50 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on CWM. |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Pepperdine v. St. Mary's OVER 144.5 | 82-89 | Win | 100 | 15 h 52 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over 144.5. Pepperdine is coming off an 84-73 win over Santa Clara, and I expect to see another high score here in Las Vegas when they play St. Mary's. The Gaels won 78-69 at Pepperdine earlier this season, the over is 19-7 in the Gaels last 26 overall. St. Mary's is coming off an 86-76 loss to Gonzaga, and the over is 6-1 in the Gaels last seven games following a straight up loss. The over is 5-1 in the Waves last six neutral site games, and they have gone over in 10 of their last 14 as an underdog. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-07-20 | Utah State v. San Diego State OVER 130 | 59-56 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 27 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over 130. |
|||||||
03-07-20 | Oklahoma State v. Texas -180 | 81-59 | Loss | -180 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 7* play on the Texas Longhorns. Texas comes into Saturday's home game against Oklahoma State as winners of five straight. Some impressive results during that span include wins at Texas Tech and Oklahoma, and a home win over West Virginia. The Cowboys have won back to back games at home, but they have lost their last two road games and they are just 4-7 on the road. They have lost four straight at Texas dating back to 2015. The Cowboys are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games as an underdog, and they are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games following a straight up win. Take TEX. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-07-20 | Louisville v. Virginia | 54-57 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 8* play on the Virginia Cavs. The defending champs are playing like contenders down the stretch, coming into Saturday's home game versus Louisville as winners of seven straight. Louisville on the other hand has lost three in a row on the road. They lost by double digits to Clemson and Florida State, and lost 64-58 at Georgia Tech. They beat the Cavs at home in February, but they had lost nine straight to Virginia prior to that. They are 0-5 straight up in their last five at Virginia, and they covered the spread in just one of those games. The Cardinals are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as an underdog. Take UVA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-07-20 | Baylor v. West Virginia | 64-76 | Win | 100 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the West Virginia Moutaineers. A few weeks ago the Baylor Bears were ranked #1 in the country, and they looked unbeatable. They might have peaked too early though, as they have been pretty average since. Baylor comes into Morgantown as losers of two of their last four, and they only covered the spread in one of those games. This isn't an easy place to play, and the Mountaineers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games. Baylor did win it's last game in West Virginia, but the Bears had lost four straight at Morgantown prior to that. This just looks like a tough spot for a Baylor team that hasn't been that sharp lately. Take WVU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-06-20 | Ball State v. Northern Illinois -1 | 75-54 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 55 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Northern Illinois. Northern Illinois is 11-3 at home this season, and they have won their last six home games. Here is what I said prior to last week's win over Central Michigan: "The Huskies have won four straight home games, and they will host a Central Michigan team that has lost four in a row overall. The Chippewas have lost nine of 11 road games this season, while the Huskies are 9-3 at home. The Chippewas are one of the highest scoring teams in the country, averaging over 80 points per game. They have had real trouble scoring on the road though, scoring less than 70 points per game. The Huskies are allowing just 60 points per game at home. Northern Illinois is 14-3 ATS in their last 17 home games versus teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400." They host Ball State tonight, and the Cardinals are just 4-7 on the road, and they are 1-5 ATS in their last six games as a road underdog. Take NIU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-05-20 | Washington v. Arizona State -6 | 90-83 | Loss | -115 | 30 h 58 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Arizona State Sun Devils. |
|||||||
03-05-20 | Houston -129 v. Connecticut | 71-77 | Loss | -129 | 10 h 52 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Houston Cougars. Houston is just a half a game out of first place in the AAC with two games remaining, and I like their chances on the road at Connecticut tonight. The Huskies have hit by injuries to a pair of key guards, including team assist leader Alterique Gilbert. The Cougars are 8-2 straight up in the last 10 meetings between the two teams, and they have won four straight since 2017. One of those wins was a 71-63 win here in Connecticut. Home court hasn't been an advantage in this series, with the home team failing to cover in seven of the last nine meetings. Take HOU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-04-20 | Air Force v. Fresno State UNDER 143.5 | 77-70 | Loss | -115 | 15 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 143.5. The Bulldogs beat the Falcons by a score of 71-62 just a few weeks ago, falling short of the total of 143. It was the sixth time in the last seven head to head meetings that these teams failed to reach the total. The majority of those games saw a lower number than we see for tonight's game. Air Force only scores an average of 66 points per game away from home, and they have averaged just over 58 points per game in their last seven versus the Bulldogs. This total appears to be on the wrong side of 140. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-03-20 | Toledo v. Northern Illinois -126 | 50-71 | Win | 100 | 12 h 51 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Northern Illinois Huskies. Northern Illinois is 10-3 at home this season, and they have won their last five home games. Here is what I said prior to last week's win over Central Michigan: "The Huskies have won four straight home games, and they will host a Central Michigan team that has lost four in a row overall. The Chippewas have lost nine of 11 road games this season, while the Huskies are 9-3 at home. The Chippewas are one of the highest scoring teams in the country, averaging over 80 points per game. They have had real trouble scoring on the road though, scoring less than 70 points per game. The Huskies are allowing just 60 points per game at home. Northern Illinois is 14-3 ATS in their last 17 home games versus teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400." They host Toledo tonight, and the Rockets appear to have decent numbers on the road. They are coming off consecutive road wins over Western Michigan and Central Michigan, two of the conference bottom feeders. I don't like their chances against MAC West leaders Norther Illinois. Take NIU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-01-20 | Michigan v. Ohio State -166 | 63-77 | Win | 100 | 8 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Ohio State Buckeyes. Ohio State won at Michigan by a score of 61-58 earlier this season, and I like their chances of sweeping the season series with a win here at home on Sunday. The Buckeyes are 13-2 at home while the Wolverines are just 4-5 on the road. Michigan is coming off a home loss to Wisconsin. The Wolverines are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games as a road underdog, and they are 0-3 at Ohio State since 2014. The home team has covered in seven of the last nine head to head meetings, and I'll go with the home favorite in this one. Take OSU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-29-20 | Utah v. California +1 | 79-86 | Win | 100 | 19 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on California. The Cal Bears have been playing a lot better of late. They are coming off a home win over the #21 ranked Colorado Buffaloes, and they have won two of their last three. Utah doesn't have a lot to be positive about, the Utes have lost four of their last five overall and they are just 1-9 on the road. It sure seems odd that a team that has lost nine of 10 road games is actually a favorite this afternoon against a Bears team that is 7-1 ATS in their last eight home games. The Bears are also 6-1 ATS in their last seven games as a home underdog. Take CAL. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-29-20 | Central Michigan v. Eastern Michigan -3.5 | 63-67 | Win | 100 | 6 h 1 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Eastern Michigan. Central Michigan has lost seven in a row, and last week I bet against them when they played on the road at Northern Illinois. Here is what I said prior to that game: "The Chippewas have lost nine of 11 road games this season, while the Huskies are 9-3 at home. The Chippewas are one of the highest scoring teams in the country, averaging over 80 points per game. They have had real trouble scoring on the road though, scoring less than 70 points per game." They face Eastern Michigan this Saturday, and the Eagles have been rock solid at home. Opponents have averaged fewer than 60 points per game at Eastern Michigan. Take EMU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-29-20 | Penn State v. Iowa -4 | 68-77 | Win | 100 | 6 h 1 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Iowa Hawkeyes. Iowa lost 89-86 to Penn State in Philadelphia earlier this season, but they have a chance to get revenge here at home this Saturday. The Hawkeyes are undefeated at home in conference play, and they are 13-1 overall at home this season. They come into today's game averaging over 82 points per game at home. Penn State has lost two of their last three, with the lone win coming at home by a single point against Rutgers. It's going to be difficult for the Nittany Lions to keep up with Iowa here in Iowa City. Take IOWA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-28-20 | Kent State v. Ohio -119 | 69-76 | Win | 100 | 10 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Ohio Bobcats. The Bobcats have won four straight at home, most recently defeating MAC powerhouse Buffalo by double digits (80-69) on Tuesday. Kent State lost at home to Buffalo last week, and the Golden Flashes have dropped back to back road games. The Golden Flashes are 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 road games. The Bobcats are 5-0 ATS in their last five home games, and 5-1 ATS in their last six overall. I'll jump on board and ride the hot ream as a pickem at home here. Take OHIO. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-27-20 | Arizona State v. UCLA OVER 141 | 72-75 | Win | 100 | 12 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 1* free play on Over 141. The UCLA Bruins host the Arizona State Sun Devils in a big game in the PAC12 tonight. The winner will take over first place in the conference, and both these teams come in riding long winning streaks. The Sun Devils are going for an eighth straight win, while the Bruins have won five straight. The total seems a little low here considering that both teams have been scoring plenty during their win streaks. History suggests that we could see a high score, as eight of the last 10 meetings have seen at least 150 points scored. That includes an 84-66 win for Arizona State at home just a few weeks ago. The Sun Devils have gone over in five of their last six road games, and the over is 13-5 in the Bruins last 18 games following a win. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-26-20 | LSU v. Florida OVER 149.5 | 66-81 | Loss | -115 | 30 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 149.5. |
|||||||
02-25-20 | DePaul v. Xavier OVER 136 | 67-78 | Win | 100 | 15 h 12 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over 136. The Xavier Musketeers host Depaul tonight, and the bookmakers have listed a low number for the total. The reason is likely a trend of low scoring games, with these teams going under in eight straight head to head meetings and nine of the last 10. Of course tonight's total is far lower than it was in any of those games. Each of the last five meetings saw a total of 140 or higher, and twice the total was higher than 150. Depaul has given up a ton of points over their last five games, allowing an average of 79 points. They have scored 70+ points in three of their last four games. This total seems just a little lower than it should be. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-22-20 | Central Michigan v. Northern Illinois -159 | 81-82 | Win | 100 | 8 h 44 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Northern Illinois Huskies. The Huskies have won four straight home games, and they will host a Central Michigan team that has lost four in a row overall. The Chippewas have lost nine of 11 road games this season, while the Huskies are 9-3 at home. The Chippewas are one of the highest scoring teams in the country, averaging over 80 points per game. They have had real trouble scoring on the road though, scoring less than 70 points per game. The Huskies are allowing just 60 points per game at home. Northern Illinois is 14-3 ATS in their last 17 home games versus teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Take NIU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-20-20 | Stanford v. Washington -135 | 72-64 | Loss | -135 | 13 h 53 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Washington Huskies. The Huskies come into tonight's home game against Stanford as losers of eight straight overall, but they have shown signs of being competitive in recent losses. They were leading at halftime in their last two games, losses at USC and UCLA. Stanford comes into this game as losers of seven of their last eight overall, and they have lost four straight on the road. The Huskies are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite, and they have won three of their last four home games against Stanford. The favorite is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings, and the home team has covered the spread in four straight meetings. Take WASH. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-20 | California v. Washington State OVER 132 | 66-57 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 132. California is coming off a home loss to Arizona State (80-75), and I had the over in that game. Here is what I said prior to tip off: "California and Arizona State have failed to reach the total in five straight head to head meetings, but the bookmakers might have over-corrected with a super low number here in Sunday's game. The total in each of the last four meetings was higher than 150, and each of the last eight meetings had a total higher than 140. As poorly as California has played this season, they have scored 72 points and 69 points respectively in two of their last three home games." We see another low total here in tonight's game at Washington State. It's lower than it was when the Bears beat the Cougars 73-66 at home earlier this year. Three of the last five meetings between these teams had a total over 150. Let's punish the books for offering such a low number here in this game. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-20 | Michigan v. Rutgers -1 | 60-52 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 1* free play on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Michigan is the bigger basketball brand, and that can be the only explanation for why this line is so close to a pickem. Rutgers has a better overall record, and they are 17-0 at home. Michigan has been brutal on the road, losing five of seven games and averaging under 70 points per game in that span. Rutgers has the better conference record, and their last home game was a double digit win over a ranked team (Illinois). Rutgers has been lights on defensively at home, allowing just 57.5 points per game. This line probably should be 3-4 points higher than it is. Take Rutgers. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-20 | Baylor v. Oklahoma +3.5 | Top | 65-54 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 39 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Oklahoma Sooners. The #1 ranked Baylor Bears come into Oklahoma as winners of 22 straight. They are 12-0 in the BIG12, and they are 11-0 on the road. You've got to have BIG BRASS TACKS to bet against a team that hasn't lost since November ... but sign me up! The Bears keep winning, but rarely are they blowing teams out. Four of their last five road games were single digit wins, and all five of those games came against teams that trail Oklahoma in the standings. They won by a score of 61-57 at home versus Oklahoma just a few weeks ago. The Sooners are 11-1 at home, and they won their last two home games by a combined 39 points against #13 ranked West Viriginia and Iowa State. The underdog has covered in five of the last six meetings between these two teams. Take OKLA. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-17-20 | North Carolina v. Notre Dame -156 | 76-77 | Win | 100 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 1* free play on Notre Dame. The Irish are coming off back to back losses to Duke and Virginia, but a home game against North Carolina figures to be an opportunity to get back on track. Ladies and gentlemen, these aren't your daddy's Tar Heels, this UNC squad is just 3-11 in the ACC, and they have lost six of eight road games. Even when the Tar Heels have been competitive, they have found a way to blow leads and lose close games. The Fighting Irish are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall, and they are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine home games. Notre Dame has averaged almost 80 points per game at home, and the Tar Heels haven't looked capable of keeping up on offense. Take ND. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-17-20 | Xavier v. St. John's OVER 141 | 77-74 | Win | 100 | 12 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 140. The St. John's Red Storm will be a home dog on Monday against Xavier, and history suggests this could be a high scoring battle. The total sits at just 140, while in previous meetings we had seen far higher totals. Eight of the last nine meetings had a total higher than 145, and five of those games had a total higher than 150. The Red Storm have been scoring plenty of points at home, averaging almost 78 points per game while winning 11 of 16 home games. They have averaged almost 75 points per game in their last five overall, and they have averaged 73 points in their last three home games against Xavier. The over is 6-3 in the last nine head to head meetings, but all nine of those games went over 140 combined points. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-16-20 | Arizona State v. California OVER 134 | 80-75 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 133.5. California and Arizona State have failed to reach the total in five straight head to head meetings, but the bookmakers might have over-corrected with a super low number here in Sunday's game. The total in each of the last four meetings was higher than 150, and each of the last eight meetings had a total higher than 140. As poorly as California has played this season, they have scored 72 points and 69 points respectively in two of their last three home games. Arizona State hasn't been one of the better defensive teams in the PAC12, and they are allowing 72.5 points per game on the road. The Bears average almost 69 points per game at home, and they should be competitive here against the Sun Devils. The over is 4-1 in the Sun Devils last five road games, and the over is 5-1 in the Golden Bears last six home games versus a team with a winning road record. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-20 | Illinois v. Rutgers -196 | 57-72 | Win | 100 | 8 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Rutgers Scarlett Knights. It's hard to ignore Rutgers home record of 16-0, and I like their chanced of extending that home win streak here against Illinois. The Scarlet Knights are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 home games, and they are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 games overall. They have been very impressive defensively at home, holding opponents to just 57.5 points per game. Illinois has struggled offensively of late, averaging less than 65 points over their last five games. Illinois leading scorer Ayo Dosunmu suffered a serious knee injury in Wednesday's loss to Michigan State, and needed to be helped off the court. It's unclear if he will be available today. Take Rutgers. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-20 | Western Michigan v. Eastern Michigan -187 | 51-69 | Win | 100 | 6 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Eastern Michigan Eagles. The Eagles have won three of their last four, and they are 8-3 at home. They will be a significant favorite at home Saturday versus MAC rivals Western Michigan. The Eagles have won three straight versus the Broncos, and four of their last five home meetings versus Western Michigan. Western Michigan has lost eight of 11 road games this season, and they have struggled on defense allowing and average of more than 77 points in those games. The Eagles have been solid on defense over their last five games, allowing fewer than 65 points per game. The Eagles should handle the Broncos at home here. Take EMU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-15-20 | Texas v. Iowa State UNDER 137 | 52-81 | Win | 100 | 10 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 137. The Iowa State Cyclones will host Texas Saturday afternoon, and this will be their second game since losing leading scorer Tyrese Haliburton for the rest of the season with a wrist injury. They scored just 61 points in a loss at Oklahoma on Wednesday. Iowa State has struggled offensively scoring just over 63 points per game in their last five overall. That's still roughly five points more than Texas has averaged during that span. The Longhorns could also be without a pair of starters for this game. Texas has failed to reach the total in five of their last six overall, and this should be another low scoring game. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-14-20 | Davidson v. St Bonaventure OVER 133 | 93-64 | Win | 100 | 13 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 133. The Davidson Wildcats will be on the road at St. Bonaventure Friday, and the bookmakers may have set a low number for this game. Both these teams come in scoring plenty of points in recent games. The Wildcats have scored almost 80 points per game in their last five overall, while the Bonnies have averaged 73 points per game during that span. These teams failed to reach the total in a low scoring game last March, but they had gone over in four straight meetings prior to that. The over is 6-2-1 in the Bonnies last nine overall, and they have gone over in five straight home meetings versus Davidson. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-14-20 | Akron v. Central Michigan UNDER 155 | 80-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 155.5. The Central Michigan Chippewas rank in the top 10 nationally averaging over 81 points per game, but I don't like their chances of reaching that number here as a home underdog versus Akron. Central Michigan has averaged fewer than 73 points over their last five games, while Akron has held opponents to fewer than 70 points per game in their last five. The Zips have won two of the last three meetings, and neither team surpassed the 70 point mark in those games. The under is 38-18 in the Zips last 56 games as a favorite, and the Chippewas have failed to reach the total in each of their last four as an underdog. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-13-20 | Washington v. USC UNDER 137.5 | 56-62 | Win | 100 | 17 h 41 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Under 137.5. The Huskies are sitting dead last in the PAC12, and they come into tonight's game as losers of eight of their last nine overall. They have lost five straight road games, scoring just 61 points per game during that span. The Trojans are 9-2 at home, and they have allowed opponents to average just 66.5 points in those games. These teams have failed to reach the total in six of the last eight head to head meetings, most recently the Huskies winning 72-40 at home earlier this season. The under is 31-12 in the Huskies last 43 road games, and the Huskies have failed to reach the total in five of their last six versus teams with a winning record. The under is 37-18-1 in the Trojans last 56 home games. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-13-20 | Washington v. USC -154 | 56-62 | Win | 100 | 12 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 1* free play on the USC Trojans. The Huskies are sitting dead last in the PAC12, and they come into tonight's game as losers of eight of their last nine overall. They have lost five straight road games, scoring just 61 points per game during that span. The Trojans are 9-2 at home, and they have allowed opponents to average just 66.5 points in those games. The Huskies crushed USC by a score of 72-40 in Washington earlier this year, setting up a killer revenge angle here in California. The Trojans are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games overall, and the favorite is 20-9 ATS in the last 29 meetings between these teams. Take USC. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-10-20 | Florida State v. Duke UNDER 148.5 | 65-70 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on FSU@DUKE to go Under the total. Duke is coming off a 98-96 win at Chapel Hill, rallying after trailing by 14 in the final 4:30 to win in overtime. We should expect a much lower score here at home versus Florida State. These teams last played in March of 2019, and Duke won by a score of 73-63. The Seminoles come in averaging under 70 points per game on the road, but they have only allowed 66 points per game on the road. Duke has held opponents to an average of just over 62 points per game at home. The under is 11-5-1 in the Seminoles last 17 games as an underdog, and the Blue Devils have gone under in 10 of their last 11 following a game where they scored 90+ points. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-09-20 | Notre Dame +1.5 v. Clemson | 61-57 | Win | 100 | 10 h 23 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Notre Dame Irish. At first glance we can see that the Clemson Tigers are 9-4 at home, while the Irish have lost four of six road games. Look a little closer and you can see that Clemson has lost four of six, and their two wins during that span came by a combined four points. The Irish on the other hand have won four of six, and their two losses during that span came by a combined three points. Notre Dame lost by just a single point on the road at #5 ranked Florida State in it's last road game. The Irish are 5-2 straight up in the last seven head to head meetings, and they have won two of the last three at Clemson. Take ND. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-20 | Boise State +9.5 v. Utah State | 61-70 | Win | 100 | 15 h 44 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Boise State Broncos. Boise State will be a big underdog on the road at Utah State tonight, and the Broncos come in as winners of five straight overall. One of those wins was an 88-83 home win over the Aggies. That game went to overtime, and close games between these teams have been the norm. These two teams have played eight straight games decided by six points or less, and each of the last two meetings went to overtime. The underdog is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings, and the road team is 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take BSU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-20 | Wake Forest v. Syracuse UNDER 148 | 73-75 | Push | 0 | 15 h 48 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Under 148. The Orange beat Wake Forest by a score of 79-54 last March, going under the listed total of 137. The total for tonight's game is more than 10 points higher than it was in the last meeting, and each of the last four head to head meetings saw a total below 140. The under is 4-1 in the Orange last five games as a home favorite, and they have held opponents to just 63 points per game at home. This figures to be an easy win for the Orange, and it seems unlikely that Wake can score enough points to push this total over such a high number. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-20 | St Bonaventure v. Duquesne -3.5 | 83-80 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 42 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Duquesne Dukes.
St. Bonnaventure has had plenty of success against the Dukes, in fact they have seven straight and nine of the last 10 versus Duquesne. There are plenty of reasons to expect them to struggle on the road here in this game. The Dukes are 9-1 at home, and they are coming off a double digit road win at Saint Louis. The Bonnies are just 5-5 on the road, and they have failed to cover in four of their last five as an underdog. The Dukes have allowed opponents to score fewer than 60 points per game at home. Take DUQ. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-08-20 | St. Louis v. Dayton UNDER 138.5 | 65-71 | Win | 100 | 12 h 41 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Under 138.5. The Flyers beat Saint Louis earlier this season, hitting a buzzer beater to tie the game at 69-69 to force overtime. Then they hit another buzzer beater for the game winner. This game isn't expected to be as close, with Dayton favored by double digits at home. The Flyers are 12-0 at home, and they have held opponents to just 61 points per game. The total for this game is higher than it was in any of the last nine head to head meetings. The under is 10-4 in the Billikens last 14 games as an underdog. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-20 | Kentucky -140 v. Tennessee | 77-64 | Win | 100 | 5 h 38 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Kentucky Wildcats. The Wildcats come into Knoxville as winners of five of their last six, and they are just a game out of first place in the SEC. The Vols had lost three straight before edging out a win at Alabama by a single point in their last game. The Volunteers are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games, and they might not have the talent to pull off an upset here against Kentucky. Their best free throw shooter and best three-point shooter (J.J. James) is listed as doubtful to play against the Wildcats. Take UK. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-07-20 | Kent State v. Northern Illinois +2 | 54-57 | Win | 100 | 23 h 57 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Northern Illinois Huskies. The Huskies lost both games against Kent State in 2019, and they look to return the favor here in 2020. They already beat the Golden Flashes by a score of 76-69 on the road earlier this year, and they will be an underdog here at home in the second meeting. Kent State may have a better overall record, but the Huskies have a better record in the MAC, and they have won five straight overall. The Golden Flashes appear to be currently overvalued, failing to cover in six straight as a road favorite, and they are 2-6 ATS in their last eight overall. The Huskies are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games as an underdog, and the underdog is 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine meetings. Take NIU. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-05-20 | LSU v. Vanderbilt +12 | 90-99 | Win | 100 | 27 h 19 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Vanderbilt Commodores. I cashed in a winner with Vanderbilt on Saturday, and here is what I said prior to their loss to Florida. "The Vanderbilt Commodores are in last place in the SEC, and they have lost plenty of games by double digits. They are coming off a nine point loss on the road at 1st place Kentucky. They easily covered a 20+ point spread in that game, and they have played well against the top teams in the conference. They also lost by just four points at #5 ranked Auburn." The Tigers appear to be overvalued, coming in with an 8-0 record in the SEC. It's important to understand that LSU hasn't played any Top 25 teams, and the majority of their wins came in close games. Take VAN. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-04-20 | Virginia Tech v. Georgia Tech UNDER 131 | 57-76 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 54 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Under 131. The Yellow Jackets are always a tough out on their home court, and they have been quite competitive all season long. They are coming off an 80-72 loss at Notre Dame, but they have won back to back home games, holding opponents to fewer than 60 points in both those games. Georgia Tech will host Virginia Tech tonight, and the Hokies struggle to score on the road averaging just 61.7 points per game while winning three of six away games. The bookmakers set the total at just 122 when these teams met last year, but they went way over that number. Tonight's total is far higher, and six of the last eight meetings have gone under. The Yellow Jackets leading scorer is also listed as questionable after missing their last game. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-01-20 | Florida v. Vanderbilt +12 | 61-55 | Win | 100 | 18 h 32 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Vanderbilt Commodores. The Vanderbilt Commodores are in last place in the SEC, and they have lost plenty of games by double digits. They are coming off a nine point loss on the road at 1st place Kentucky. They easily covered a 20+ point spread in that game, and they have played well against the top teams in the conference. They also lost by just four points at #5 ranked Auburn. The Gators are coming off three straight losses, and they may be hard pressed to cover such a big number. Take VAN. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-01-20 | Houston v. Cincinnati -3 | 62-64 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 7* play on the Cincinnati Bearcats. Cincinnati is likely better than their record indicates, and they look to prove just that with a home win over rivals Houston on Saturday. Cincinnati has a home record of 9-1 this season, and they are 5-0 ATS in their last five home games. The improved play of Jarron Cumberland has played a role in the Bearcats recent success. "I didn't coach him last year. I just know what I see now," coach Brannen said of Cumberland. "He's definitely healthy. A big part of him being on the ball more is he's in great shape. He's able to do what he's capable of doing. Great players make the game easier for others. That's where Jarron is right now." This Cincinnati team appears primed to make a move in the American Conference. Take CIN. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-01-20 | Michigan State -5 v. Wisconsin | 63-64 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 3 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Michigan State. The Wolverines come into Madison looking to take advantage of an undermanned Wisconsin team. The Badgers are in a bad place right now, with leading scorer Kobe King leaving the team, and starting guard Brad Davison serving a suspension. Wisconsin is coming off back to back road losses at Iowa and Purdue, and they have lost three of their last four overall. They scored just 55 points in a double digit loss at East Lansing in January, and it's going to be tough to do any better here on Saturday. The Spartans are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games as a favorite. Take MSU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-30-20 | Northeastern v. William & Mary -2.5 | 58-59 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 51 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on CWM. The Tribe are coming off a rare home loss to Towson, and here is what I had to say prior to that game: "The Tribe have been the class of the CAA so far, winning six of seven games in conference play. They are an absolute juggernaut at home, and their last three home games were double digit wins over UNC Wilmington, Charleston and James Madison. They have now covered the spread in six straight home games." They are back on their home court Wednesday night against Northeastern. The Huskies last road game was a loss to last place UNC Wilmington, and they are coming into tonight's game off a home loss to Delaware. The Tribe won a close game at Northeastern earlier this season. Take CWM. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-28-20 | Ohio v. Northern Illinois -147 | 59-61 | Win | 100 | 1 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Northern Illinois Huskies.
The Huskies played Ohio three times in 2019, winning all three of those games. Two of those wins came at home, and both were decided by a double digit margin. The Bobcats are just 2-5 in the MAC, and they have lost seven of their last 10 overall. The Bobcats are 7-16 ATS in their last 23 road games, and they are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games following an ATS win. The home team has covered in six of the last eight head to head meetings. This looks like a great spot to back a Huskies team that has been notoriously tough at home in recent seasons. Take NIU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-25-20 | Towson v. William & Mary -6 | Top | 70-58 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 36 m | Show |
This is an 8* play on William and Mary. The Tribe have been the class of the CAA so far, winning six of seven games in conference play. They are an absolute juggernaut at home, and their last three home games were double digit wins over UNC Wilmington, Charleston and James Madison. They have now covered the spread in six straight home games. The Tribe won a close game at Towson last year, and in 2018 they won both meetings by double digits. The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings, and I think the Tribe deserve to be closer to a double digit favorite here. Take CWM. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-23-20 | James Madison v. William & Mary -9 | 75-88 | Win | 100 | 18 h 17 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the College of William and Mary. The Tribe have been the class of the CAA so far, winning six of seven games in conference play. They are an absolute juggernaut at home, and their last two home games were double digit wins over UNC Wilmington and Charleston. The James Madison Dukes have lost six of seven games in conference play, and they are 1-6 straight up in their last seven versus the Tribe. The Dukes are 7-15 ATS in their last 22 road games, and they are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight up loss. The Tribe are 5-0 ATS in their last five home games. Take CWM. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-22-20 | St. Louis +2.5 v. Davidson | Top | 59-71 | Loss | -109 | 20 h 10 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Saint Louis Bilikens. The Davidson Wildcats are still one of the more recognizable brands in the Atlantic-10 Conference. They have been far more successful than Saint Louis over the last decade, but so far this season there is no doubt that the Bilikens have been the better team. Saint Louis is 14-4 overall, and three of their four losses came against ranked teams. The one loss against an unranked opponent came against a Duquesne team that is on the cusp of being ranked. They are 3-2 in conference play, and both losses came against the top two teams in the conference. Most recently they lost in overtime on a buzzer beater by a score of 78-76 at home versus Dayton. These two teams split the season series in 2019, and Saint Louis won by 20+ points at Davidson. They had previous lost to the Wildcats by a single point at home earlier in 2019. I think the Bilikens should be the favorite here. Take SLU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-21-20 | Florida +2.5 v. LSU | 82-84 | Win | 100 | 16 h 54 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Florida Gators. While LSU sits at the top of the SEC with a perfect 5-0 record in conference play, they have yet to play any of the top teams. The majority of their wins came in close games against the weaker teams in the SEC. Wins over Arkansas, Mississippi State and Mississippi came by a combined seven points. History doesn't bode well for the Tigers as a home favorite versus Florida, with the home team losing outrihgt in four of the last five head to head meetings. Florida is coming off back to back wins by a combined 38 points. They held #4 ranked Auburn to just 47 points in their last game. Take FLA. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-18-20 | BYU v. Gonzaga OVER 153.5 | Top | 69-92 | Win | 100 | 24 h 27 m | Show |
This is an 8* play on the BYU@GONZ to go Over the total. These teams played twice last season, and Gonzaga scored over 100 points at home, and more than 90 points on the road. They won and covered in both games, and each of those games went over the total. The Cougars come into tonight's game playing great offensively, they've scored 90+ in back to back wins, and they scored 84 points in a loss to St. Mary's in their last road game. Gonzaga has gone over in six of their last seven home games, and the Cougars have gone over in five straight as a road underdog. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule. |
|||||||
01-16-20 | Oregon State +4.5 v. Washington | Top | 56-64 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 36 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Oregon State. The Beavers are getting a bunch of points on the road at Washington, and history tells us that the underdog has been the play in recent meetings. These teams have gone to overtime three times in the last five head to head meetings. The underdog has covered the spread in four of those games. The Huskies are shorthanded, with their starting PG missing the last two games since being ruled academically inelligeble. Quade Green leads the team in assists, and he's the Huskies best free throw shooter and he's also their biggest threat from beyond the arc. Green isn't available until late March. The Huskies are 0-2 without him, failing to score 60 points in each of those losses. The road team is 5-0 ATS in the last five head to head meetings. I'll take the points. Take ORST. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-11-20 | College of Charleston v. William & Mary OVER 142 | 56-67 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 44 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on COFC@CWM to go Over the total. The College of William and Mary are always a strong home team in the CAA, and they are 5-0 at home so far this season. They have averaged over 80 points per game at home. Charleston will know that they need to score to keep up with the Tribe, but the Cougars are 5-0 in the CAA and have averaged 78 points per game so far. The last meeting between these two teams went to overtime, and the Tribe won 86-84. Six of the last seven head to head meetings have gone over the total, and the total for this game is lower than it was in the previous six meetings. The over is 36-16 in Tribe last 52 home games, and they have gone over in eight of their last nine as a home dog. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule. |

01-08-20 | Davidson v. Rhode Island UNDER 143 | 58-69 | Win | 100 | 20 h 37 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on DAV@URI to go Under the total. Davidson comes into Rhode Island looking for their first conference win, and they can get back to .500 with a win over the Rams. The Wildcats have struggled offensively, averaging less than 70 points per game. They have been solid defensively however, only giving up 66 points per game. The Rams are coming off a 69-61 home loss to Richmond, and leading scorer Fatts Russell scored just three points on 1-of-12 shooting. The under is 6-1-1 in the Wildcats last eight overall, and four of their last five versus Rhode Island have gone under. All five of those games saw fewer than 142 points. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-04-20 | Towson v. NC-Wilmington OVER 131 | Top | 67-60 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 56 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on TOW@UNCW to go Over the total. The Seahawks were once the powerhouse in the CAA, but they have slipped all the way to the cellar. They will be a home underdog against Towson on Saturday, and their poor play doesn't inspire me to back them in this role. That being said, they still average over 77 points per game at home, and history suggests they will score their fair share against the Tigers. These two teams have played eight times since 2015, and all of those previous eight meetings saw a total higher than 140. Towson gave up 81 points in a loss to Charleston in their last game, and the over is 5-1 in the Tigers last six games following an ATS loss. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-01-20 | Wofford v. East Tennessee State OVER 142 | 48-49 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 6 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on WOF@ETSU to go Over the total. The Eastern Tennessee State Buccaneers will host conference rivals Wofford on New Years Day, and history tells us we can expect a high score. These teams have gone over the total in six of the last seven meetings, and the under is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings. They haven't just gone over the total, they have gone way over. They have scored 150 points or more in five of the last eight head to head meetings. The over is 47-19-2 in Buccaneers last 68 home games, and the Buccaneers have averaged over 85 points per game at home. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-30-19 | Seton Hall v. DePaul UNDER 139.5 | 74-66 | Loss | -115 | 20 h 57 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on HALL@DEPAUL to go Under the total. I bet the under in Seton Hall's recent win over Maryland, and here is what I said prior to that game. "The Seton Hall Pirates have lost back to back games, but they have even bigger problems. Leading scorer Myles Powell suffered a concussion, and he won't play tonight at home versus Maryland. Powell is averaging 21.2 points per game this season, one of just two players averaging in double figures. The other is junior forward Sandro Mamukelashvili, who is averaging just 10.9 points per game. Neither of the two will be available for tonight's game, and perhaps for the remainder of 2019. The Pirates struggled without them, scoring just 48 points in a loss to Rutgers." The Pirates went on to beat Prairie Valley by a score of 75-55 after beating Maryland 52-48. Take Under.

This is an 8* play on PVAM@HALL to go Under the total. Here is what I said prior the Pirates 52-48 win over Maryland: "The Seton Hall Pirates have lost back to back games, but they have even bigger problems. Leading scorer Myles Powell suffered a concussion, and he won't play tonight at home versus Maryland.

The Pirates struggled without them, scoring just 48 points in a loss to Rutgers. The under is 8-1 in the Pirates last nine games following an ATS loss, and they have failed to reach the total in five of their last six overall. You really have to wonder where the points are going to come from here against a Top 10 ranked Maryland team." It looks like they have stepped up their defense, and we should expect that trend to continue here on Sunday. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-16-19 | Mercer v. NC-Wilmington OVER 144 | 72-63 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on MER@UNCW to go Over the total. The Seahawks come into tonight's home game versus Mercer as losers of three straight, and they gave up an average of 76 points per game during that span. They might have more success against a Mercer team that has lost three of four on the road. Mercer is allowing opponents to average 77 points per game this season. The over is 7-2 in the Bears last nine road games versus a team with a winning home record. The over is 10-3 in the Seahawks last 13 home games. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-14-19 | Duquesne +0.5 v. Radford | 71-49 | Win | 100 | 25 h 12 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Duquesne Dukes. The Dukes are 8-0 to start the season, and they come into their first true road game as a favorite over Radford. What looks like a tough matchup for the Dukes might not be as tough as it would have been a year ago. The Highlanders finished first in the Big South last year, and were a Cinderella team in the NCAA Tournament. They have started this season off by losing five of their first eight games. Free throw shooting could be a huge advantage for the Dukes, who are hitting just shy of 80 percent from the charity stripe. Radford is shooting just over 60 percent from the free throw line. The Highlanders are 3-15 ATS in their last 18 Saturday games. Take DUQ. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-11-19 | Boise State v. Tulsa OVER 131 | 56-69 | Loss | -115 | 17 h 56 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on BSU@TULSA to go Over the total. The Boise State Broncos come into Tulsa as winners of four of their last five. They have scored an average of more than 77 points per game during that span. The Broncos have given up their fair share of points as well, with opponents averaging almost 70 points per game in their last five overall. Tonight's total of 131 will be the lowest that the Broncos have seen all year, and they have gone over in four straight road games. The Hurricanes are coming off a home loss to Arkansas State, and the over is 15-7-1 in their last 23 games following a ATS loss. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-07-19 | Charlotte v. NC-Wilmington +4 | 76-57 | Loss | -107 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on UNCW. The Seahawks are a tough nut to crack when they play at home. They have won four of five at home so far this year, and the one loss came against the mighty UNC Tar Heels. They host the Charlotte 49ers this afternoon, and Charlotte is 0-3 on the road so far. A look a little further back reveals that the 49ers are 15-36 ATS in their last 51 road games. They haven't been a strong play in the role of favorite, they 2-6 ATS in their last eight games as a favorite, and they have failed to cover in four of their last five when asked to cover points on the road. Take UNCW. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-04-19 | Texas Tech v. DePaul OVER 139.5 | 60-65 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 35 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on TTU@DePaul to go Over the total. The Red Raiders are coming off back to back road losses, and they face a 8-0 DePaul team in Chicago tonight. DePaul won the last meeting back in 2011, and the final score was 76-70. That fell short of the listed total of 150, but tonight's total is 10 points lower. Both these teams are scoring their fair share of points, and shooting the ball relatively well. The point spread suggests this game is expected to be close, so we might expect a wild finish. DePaul has scored 70+ points in all eight of it's games so far, and that includes road wins over Minnesota and Boston College. I like both teams to get 70+ tonight. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-30-19 | Tulsa v. Vanderbilt OVER 137.5 | Top | 67-58 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 59 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on TULSA@VAN to go Over the total. The Vanderbilt Comodores come into tonight's home game against Tulsa averaging over 85 points per game on better than 51 percent shooting. They have gone over the total in all six games so far this season, and tonight's total seems a little low (on the wrong side of 140). Vandy isn't quite as impressive on defense, allowing opponents to average over 70 points per game. The Comodores have gone over in nine straight non-conference games, and the over is 5-0 in their last five home games. Tulsa has scored 72 or more in five of their six games so far. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-30-19 | San Francisco v. Hawaii OVER 147 | 75-85 | Win | 100 | 13 h 3 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on SF@HAW to go Over the total. The San Francisco Dons are off to an impressive start to the season, winning seven straight games. Their 7-0 start has been helped by their potent offense, coming into Friday's game in Hawaii averaging over 86 points per game on better than 47 percent of shooting. The result has been a streak of overs in non conference games, and the Don's have now gone over in 8-STRAIGHT outside the WCC. They have also gone over the total in four straight versus Hawaii, and the over is 9-1-1 in Hawaii's last 11 versus teams from the WCC. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-28-19 | Davidson v. Marquette -159 | 63-73 | Win | 100 | 9 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 7* play on Marquette. The Golden Eagles are off to a solid start, winning three of four games with a loss on the road at Wisconsin. They host the Davidson Wildcats in Orlando on Thanksgiving, and Davidson hasn't looked good at all so far. The Wildcats have lost three of five overall, and they have been just getting killed on the boards. They lost their last game to unranked Wake Forest, and they were out-rebounded 43-29 in the game. The Wildcats are 2-6 ATS in their last eight non-conference games, and they just don't look like they currently have what it takes to compete with the bigger teams from the bigger conferences. Take MARQ. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-27-19 | St. Louis v. Boston College UNDER 132 | 64-54 | Win | 103 | 4 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on SLU@BC to go UNDER the total. Both the Saint Louis Bilikens and the Boston College Eagles are teams that focus on playing strong defense. That has been the theme in recent head to head meetings, failing to score a combined 115 points in any of the last three meetings. Saint Louis has failed to reach the total in nine of their last 13 versus ACC teams, and they have gone under in five straight road games. The under is 8-3 in the Eagles last 11 home games. The Eagles have failed to reach the total in five of their last six versus teams from the A-10. Take Under. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-17-19 | Seton Hall v. St. Louis +7 | 83-66 | Loss | -103 | 17 h 15 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Saint Louis Bilikens. I bet on the Bilikens early this week, and here is what I said prior to their win over Eastern Washington: "The Bilikens have won 17 of their last 19 home games, and they are coming off double digit wins over Valparaiso and FGSU. They have gotten off to good starts in both those games, leading by 22 at halftime against FGSU and leading by 11 at halftime in their win over the Crusaders." They are getting points here at home versus Seton Hall, and I wouldn't be surprised if they win this game outright. Take SLU. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-16-19 | USC v. Nevada +2.5 | 76-66 | Loss | -108 | 16 h 27 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Nevada Wolfpack. Nevada lost it's home opener to Utah, but has since won back to back games. They are hosting another PAC12 team tonight, and this time they will be an underdog versus USC. The Wolpack have four seniors in their starting lineup, and they should have an edge here at home against a USC team that is 3-9 ATS in their last 12 road games. The Wolf Pack are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven versus PAC12 teams, and they are 40-19-3 ATS in their last 62 games following an ATS win. Take NEV. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-16-19 | NC-Wilmington +17.5 v. Davidson | 49-87 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on UNCW. The Seahawks are 2-1, and they lost by 16-points to #9 ranked North Carolina. They will be a huge underdog here at Davidson, and I don't see any reason why the Wildcats should lay a bigger beating on them than the Tar Heels did. The Wildcats beat the Seahawks 91-85 last year, and they have won all five meetings since 2011. They are a bigger favorite in this game than they were in any of those previous five games. The Seahawks are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine non-conference games. Take UNCW. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-16-19 | Tennessee v. Washington +1.5 | 75-62 | Loss | -119 | 10 h 26 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Washington Huskies. The Huskies opened the season with an impressive win over #16 ranked Baylor in Alaska. They will be in Toronto on Saturday, taking on unranked Tennessee. Both teams are a little younger this year, but Vols coach Rick Barnes seems to think his team has a long way to go: "We felt going into this year, knowing we had these younger guys, that we had to challenge them as much as we could with this schedule," said Barnes. "Even if you get burnt somewhere along the way, you have to know that it will help us in the long run." The Volunteers are 1-4 ATS in their last five non-conference games, and they have failed to cover in four straight non-conference games. Take WAS. GL, Jesse Schule |
