12-19-23 | Golden Knights v. Hurricanes -128 | Top | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 40 m | Show |
The Golden Knights are the defending champions. The Golden Knights have the top record. So, why are Hurricanes favored? Because this is an exceptional team which is 53-23 its last 76 home games with a total of 6 or more, 47-29 its last 76 against Western Conference opposition. The Hurricanes are the healthier team. They are playing at home and they are hell-bent on snapping their losing streak and beating the champs. They'll do it! ***NHL GOW*** |

12-19-23 | Flyers v. Devils -155 | 3-2 | Loss | -155 | 10 h 36 m | Show | |
New Jersey won at Philadelphia earlier and has won five of its last six home games against Philadelphia. The Devils are 10-5 after allowing 4 goals or more. The Flyers are only 11-31 (-18.2) the past 42 times that they scored 1 goal or less in their previous game. They are also just 32-68 their last 100 games against team with winning records. The Devils will continue their home ice dominance of this division rival. ***Divisional Dominator*** |

12-19-23 | Hampton +12.5 v. Bowling Green | 65-75 | Win | 100 | 2 h 37 m | Show | |
This is too many points for a team like Bowling Green to be laying. The Falcons were 11-20 last season and they brought back only 1 starter. The Falcons have won 6 of their last 9 games but only 2 of those wins came by more than 10 points. The Pirates score 83 points a game and the Falcons are only 6-14 against the spread their last 20 against teams which score 77 or more. Hampton is 8-2 against the spread the past 10 times that it was a road underdog of 9.5 to 12 points. Grab the points! ***EARLY RISER*** |

12-18-23 | Eagles v. Seahawks OVER 45 | Top | 17-20 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 27 m | Show |
This total is too low. Philadelphia games average 51 points. Seattle games average 46. The Eagles offense is very difficult to stop but their defense has allowed 33, 42 and 34 points their last 3 games. Similarly, Seattle has allowed 28, 41 and 31 points its last 3. Both defenses saw some important players miss practice this week. The Eagles are healthy on offense. The Seahawks hope to have Geno Smith back to lead their offense. The extra day's rest helps his chances. Smith or Lock, the Seahawks know they are going to need a lot of points. This one goes over! ***NFC TOW*** |

12-18-23 | Rockets v. Cavs -4 | Top | 130-135 | Win | 100 | 10 h 25 m | Show |
Strong spot for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Cleveland scored 127 in Saturday's 8-point win over Atlanta. The Cavaliers had Sunday off. Not so for the Rockets. They played at Milwaukee on Sunday. The last time that the Rockets played 2 games in 2 days saw them lose by 10. The Cavaliers won by 17 points and by 18 points in last season's 2 games with the Rockets. Even dealing with some injuries, the Cavaliers, 4-1-2 against the spread in December, will win big again on Monday. ***NBA GOW*** |
|||||||
12-18-23 | Western Kentucky v. Old Dominion OVER 51 | 38-35 | Win | 100 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
Total is too low. Neither defense is very good. The Hilltoppers allow 28.2 points a game. The Monarchs allow 27.8. Both teams allow more on the road. Western Kentucky's last 3 games have finished with 67, 51 and 69 points. These schools combined for 63 points in 2021. 6 of their last 7 meetings have finished with more than 60. There are no weather issues and this will be another high-scoring games. Go with the Over. ***SUPER SMASH*** |

12-18-23 | Louisiana-Monroe v. Jacksonville UNDER 140.5 | 65-75 | Win | 100 | 3 h 53 m | Show | |
Total is too high. Same two clubs faced each other last year and the total was only 129.5. Even that was too high. Jacksonville won 65-55. They had only 46 by halftime. ULM is 131-91 to the under in road games over many years, 3-2 to the under on the road this season. The Warhawks are also 4-1 to the under as underdogs. Jacksonville kept its last opponent to 54 points and is allowing an average of 54 at home. This game stays under. ***EARLY RISER*** |
|||||||
12-17-23 | Ravens v. Jaguars +3.5 | Top | 23-7 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 38 m | Show |
Give me the points with Jacksonville. The Ravens are strong but Jacksonville plays best against good teams. The Jaguars are 5-2 against the spread against winning teams. It helps their cause against the Ravens that the Jaguars are the 4th best team in the NFL at stopping the run. They allow only 92.2 yards on the ground, per game. The offense is in good hands with an improving Trevor Lawrence. The Jax QB said this: "It's feeling better. Thankfully, I made out of the game pretty clean. I didn't re-aggravate it anymore. I'm just trying to keep getting better every day. Hopefully it feels even better this week. I was able to move around decent on Sunday, so that was positive." The Jaguars beat the Ravens by 1 point last year. That was an exciting 28-27 victory. This will be another close one and I look for the Jaguars to again get it done. ***SNF GOY** |

12-17-23 | Senators v. Golden Knights UNDER 6.5 | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -108 | 12 h 31 m | Show |
Both the Senators and the Knights will look to improve their number of goals allowed today. The last time that the Senators were off 3 straight losses, they responded with a 2-0 win. The last time that the Knights allowed 5 or more goals, they responded with a 4-1 win. The Knights allow only 2.48 goals per game, 3rd best in the NHL. They kill 87.3% of their penalties. Only Boston is better. Ottawa's last 3 visits to Sin City have finished with scores of 3-2, 2-1 and 4-1. All 3 of those games went under the total and this one will too. ***NHL TOW*** |

12-17-23 | Pelicans -7.5 v. Spurs | 146-110 | Win | 100 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
The Spurs are off a rare victory. That win came against a tired and injured Laker team which was without 3 starters and which was playing its 3rd road game in 4 nights. The only other time that the Spurs won by double-figures, they lost and failed to cover against Toronto in their next game. Popovich's team will have trouble against a rested Pelicans team which is playing its best. New Orleans has won the last 6 meetings with the Spurs, including a 121-106 win 2.5 weeks ago. Valanciunas had 29 points and 13 rebounds in leading the Pelicans to a 3rd straight victory on Friday. They won big here both meetings last year and will be too much for the Spurs to handle again this afternoon. ***Super Smash*** |

12-17-23 | Jets v. Dolphins UNDER 37.5 | Top | 0-30 | Win | 100 | 96 h 60 m | Show |
The Jets offense has had its moments but has mostly been inconsistent. Before going overboard about their 30 point effort against Houston, remember that they scored 8, 13, 6, 12, 6 and 13 points their previous 6 games. The Miami offense is dangerous but NY has the defense to slow them. The Jets rank in the top 5 in the NFL for yards allowed. The Dolphins defense is better than the general public realizes. The Dolphins allowed 2 touchdowns in the final 3 minutes last game but they had only given up 14 for the first 57 minutes of that game. Before that, they gave up 15, 13 (to the Jets) and 13 in 3 previous games. They are a top 10 defense for yards allowed. Last season, the game at NY finished with 57 points but the rematch in Miami was far lower-scoring, finishing with only 17 points. This season the game at NY finished with 47. Once again, the rematch wiull be far lower-scoring. Go with the Under! ***AFC East TOY*** |

12-16-23 | Brandon Royval v. Alexandre Pantoja UNDER 2.5 | Top | 0-1 | Push | 0 | 16 h 49 m | Show |
Brandon Royval is off back-to-back 1st Rd wins. 8 of his last 9 fights have ended in either the 1st or the 2nd round. Alexandre Pantoja went the distance against Moreno last fight. He won his previous fight in the 1st round though. He previously defeated Royval in the 2nd round. Royval's style makes it likely that this rematch won't last long. The Raw Dog fights with ferocity and pace. Go with the Under! ***UFC TOTAL OF THE YEAR*** |

12-16-23 | Knicks v. Clippers -5.5 | Top | 122-144 | Win | 100 | 14 h 21 m | Show |
The Knicks beat the Clippers 111-97 on November 6th, at MSG. They pulled away in the second half and spoiled the debut of James Harden. Six weeks later, the Clippers will have their revenge. The Clippers have won 6 straight games and they are 4-1 against the spread their last 5. They didn't play on Friday. The Knicks played last night at Phoenix. The Knicks are 2-3 against the spread when playing the second of back to backs. The Clippers won by 11 last meeting here. Look for NY to fall to 3-8 against the spread against winning teams. ***Revenge GOM*** |

12-16-23 | Arizona State v. TCU -7.5 | 59-79 | Win | 100 | 14 h 56 m | Show | |
These teams met in the first round of last year's NCAA Tournament. TCU won a thriller. Arizona State would like to avenge that loss but its not going to happen. At less than perfect health, the Sun Devils aren't going to enjoy tonight's visit to Dickies Arena. Having already been blown out 77-49 by BYU, the Sun Devils are 0-3 their last 3 games against Big 12 competition. TCU takes care of business in December. The Horned Frogs are 9-4 against the spread in 13 tries in the month of December, 12-1 straight up in those games. They are also 6-2 against the spread the past 8 times that they played with 5 or 6 day's rest. This one won't be close. ***Weekend Wipeout*** |

12-16-23 | Broncos v. Lions UNDER 48 | Top | 17-42 | Loss | -108 | 28 h 57 m | Show |
The Lions scored only 13 points against Chicago last week. Now they take on a Denver defense which just allowed 7 points. The Broncos have been stingy for the past couple of months. Before holding the Chargers to 7, they allowed 19, 17, 9, 22, 20, 12 and 22 points. That's an average of 16 points allowed over their past 8 games. Although the defense has played well, the Broncos tend to have trouble scoring on the road. They've scored 24 or fewer points in every road game but one, averaging 20.7 points and only 191.3 yards of offense. 8 straight Denver games have finished with 46 or less. Go with the Under! ***Non-Conf TOM*** |

12-16-23 | Penguins v. Maple Leafs -137 | 0-7 | Win | 100 | 11 h 24 m | Show | |
The Maple Leafs scored 5 period goals to storm back and earn a point in their last game, a 6-5 overtime loss against Columbus. They have earned at least a point in 8 straight games and will carry the momentum into today's game against Pittsburgh. The Penguins have lost 3 of their last 4 road games and the win was in Overtime at Montreal. The Maple Leafs will play with revenge from a November loss at Pittsburgh. Prior to that, Toronto had beaten Pittsburgh twice in a row. Toronto will be the better team on Hockey Night In Canada tonight. ***Saturday Slap Shot*** |

12-16-23 | Vikings v. Bengals OVER 39.5 | 24-27 | Win | 100 | 72 h 7 m | Show | |
The Bengals offense is back. They scored 34 points in each of their last 2 games. The Vikings only managed 3 points last game but they still average 20.9 points a game on the road. The Bengals have now had 6 of their last 7 games finish with 42 or more points. Four meetings have all had 40 or more points the most recent (2021) finishing with 51. Both games at Cincinnati finished with more than 50. No weather issues. This game goes over! ***NFL Dominator*** |

12-16-23 | Georgia Southern v. Ohio +4 | 21-41 | Win | 100 | 91 h 12 m | Show | |
I'll take the points with the better team in this one. Rourke and some of the offensive players have hit transfer portal. Defense still matters. The Bobcats allow 15.6 points a game. The Eagles? They allow 29.6 points a game. Ohio is 6-3 against the spread its last 9 as an underdog of 3.5 to 10 points. GA Southern is 0-4, both straight up and against the spread, the past 4 times it played with 2 or more week's worth of rest. Eagles are 0-4 against the spread last 4 times that they were off a conf. loss, 4-10 their last 14 in that situation. Rourke's replacement is a senior who can both throw and run, My play is with the points but if you're feeling adventurous, you may want to also sprinkle in a little on the money-line. Go Bobcats! ***CFB EARLY RISER*** |

12-16-23 | Fulham v. Newcastle United OVER 2.5 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 2 h 27 m | Show |
With 33 goals in 16 EPL matches, Newcastle has no trouble finding the back of the net. Keeping the ball out of the net is a different matter. The Magpies conceded 4 goals last match and and 9 goals in their past 3 matches, across all leagues. Its been a similar story for Fulham. Through 16 matches, the Cottagers have scored 26 goals but have all conceded 26. That's an average of 3.25 goals per match. Last 5 matches have had 4, 5, 7, 5 and 5 goals scored. The Cottagers are scoring goals in bunches right now but often give up a lot on the road. This has all the makings of a high-scoring match. ***EPL TOW*** |

12-15-23 | Sabres +1.5 v. Golden Knights | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 19 m | Show | |
The Sabres have taken two of their last 3 meetings with the Golden Knights. Their last visit to Sin City resulted in a 3-2 victory. The Golden Knights are finding ways to come out on top but their wins aren't coming easily. Vegas is off back-to-back 5-4 victories. One came in overtime and the other came in a shootout. 5 of the Knights last 9 games have been tied at the end of regulation time. Before a bad game at Colorado, the Sabres had started to play much better. They will be better tonight. I recommend grabbing the +1.5 goals. ***Road Warrior*** |
|||||||
12-15-23 | CS Bakersfield v. Fresno State UNDER 132.5 | Top | 58-61 | Win | 100 | 14 h 17 m | Show |
Fresno State and CS Bakersfield also faced each other last December. That game produced only 104 points, 54 in the first half and 50 in the second. CS BakersField will again struggle to score. The Roadrunners already had a game where they scored 40 points. They've scored 65 or less 4 times. Fresno State allowed only 56 points last game. The Bulldogs have also scored 65 or less in 3 of their last 5. The Roadrunners are 3-0 to the under against Mountain West opponents the last few seasons. This will make 4-0. ***DEC CBB TOM*** |

12-15-23 | Pistons +16.5 v. 76ers | Top | 92-124 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 38 m | Show |
This is a case of too many points, given the scheduling situation. The 76ers just destroyed the Pistons at Detroit. They will be over-confident tonight. With a Saturday road game to follow, they will take it easy late in the game. The Pistons are 2-0 against the spread when they were road underdogs of 12.5 or more points. They play with 2x revenge and will play with a chip on their shoulder. This season's first meeting was close, the 76ers winning by 8. This will be too. Grab the big points. ***Eastern Conf GOW*** |

12-15-23 | Tottenham Hotspur -137 v. Nottingham Forest | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 32 m | Show |
Two previous matches have seen Tottenham victorious by scores of 2-0 and 3-1. Tottenham is off a 4-1 thrashing of Newcastle. Nottingham Forest has 4 losses and 1 draw its last 5 EPL matches. Forest was outscored 13-5. The victory against Newcastle was just what the Spurs needed. They are gunning for the top 4 and need maximum points from this game. Forest has 17 goals in 16 matches. Tottenham has 33 goals in 16 matches. Even with some injury concerns, a revitalized and determined Tottenham team will be too much for outmatched Nottingham Forest! ***EPL GOY*** |

12-14-23 | Jazz v. Blazers -3.5 | Top | 122-114 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
I won with the over when these teams faced each other earlier this month. This time, the play is on Portland. The Jazz won yesterday but have dropped all 4 games when playing 2 games in 2 days. Their 3 road games in that situation all lost by double-figures. One of those was a 16 point setback at Portland. The Jazz are only 1-11 on the road overall, the worst road record in the league. The Trail Blazers are 9-5-1 against the spread their last 15 in a revenge situation. Lay the small number and look for a big win for the home team. ***Northwest Div GOM*** |

12-14-23 | Chargers v. Raiders OVER 33 | Top | 21-63 | Win | 100 | 77 h 40 m | Show |
I played on the Chargers in this season's earlier game. It had an O|U line of 49 points. This one is much, much lower. The biggest difference is that Herbert played in the first game and that he may not in this one. He's questionable at the time of this writing. Coach Staley said Monday: "There’s a lot of information that we’re gathering right now, but he's as tough as they come. We’re gonna make sure that whatever it is, we’re going to do what’s best for Justin long term." Remember that Herbert was only 13 of 24 for 167 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT in the first game. He did add 2 rushing TDs but still his performance wasn't one of his best. But its because of him, primarily, that the total has come down so much. That's giving us value on the over. Of course, Herbert's not the only factor. The Raiders scoring 0 points last week also works in our favor to bring the line down. The last 9 meetings have all finished with 41 or more. With or without Herbert, this number is too low! ***AFC West TOY*** |
|||||||
12-14-23 | Capitals v. Flyers OVER 5.5 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
This is the lowest total of any of Thursday's hockey games. The rest have totals of 6 or more. Turning a 6 into a win instead of a push or loss is a big deal. Washington's last game finished with 6 goals. Two of the Capitals last 4 games have landed on that number. Three of their last 4 have finished with more than 5.5 goals. The last 10 meetings between these teams have also all had total lines of 6 or more. Capital road games average 5.9 goals on the season. Same goes for Flyer home games. Washington's last visit to the Philadelphia resulted in a 5-3 final, Travis Konecny recording a hat trick for the home team. This one will also finish over the total! ***Metro Div TOM*** |

12-14-23 | Furman +6.5 v. Tulane | 110-117 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 24 m | Show | |
Give me the points with Furman. The Paladins were the best team in the Southern Conference last season and advanced to the NCAA second round. The Paladins are 4-1 against the spread the last 5 times that they were road underdogs of 6.5 to 9 points. The Paladins are also 9-4 against the spread the last 13 tries after allowing 60 or less. Off a 30-point loss, the Green Wave are only 9-19 against the spread their last 28 games outside of their conference. Grab the points! ***Road Warrior*** |

12-14-23 | Rangers v. Betis OVER 2.5 | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 29 m | Show |
The first leg was low-scoring, a 1-0 final back in September. This one sets up for more scoring. At the top of Group C, Real Betis needs a point from the match to ensure a place in the knockout round playoffs. A win will confirm a direct spot for them in the round of 16. The visiting Rangers need a victory. This will lead to them throwing caution to the wind. Both clubs are missing some key defensive players which will lead to this match producing a minimum of 3 goals. Go with the Over. ***Europa Cup TOY*** |
|||||||
12-14-23 | AC Sparta Prague -126 v. Aris Limassol | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show |
The first match resulted in a 2-2 draw. Limassol has little to play for. Sparta needs a victory. Sparta has won their last five games across competitions. They have kept clean sheets in the majority of those while scoring 9 goals. Even though they are in third place, Sparta can still win the group and go directly through to the last 16 if they win by three or more goals here. They would also need a Betis draw with Rangers in Spain. That might be asking too much but they will at least secure the victory. ***Europa League GOM*** |

12-13-23 | Jets v. Kings OVER 6 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 13 m | Show | |
The Jets couldn't muster much offense last night. They will have to do better tonight as the Kings have scored 15 goals against them in the past 3 meetings alone. LA finally lost on the road, the trip wearing them down. The Kings had scored 4 or more goals in 3 straight and 7 of 8 before visiting New York though. Winnipeg has only played back-to-back games once and that game finished with 7 goals. This one goes over! ***Total Wipeout*** |

12-13-23 | Utah State v. Santa Clara +3.5 | Top | 84-82 | Win | 100 | 14 h 40 m | Show |
The Aggies blew out the Broncos at Utah State last year. Two totally different teams will face each other tonight but Santa Clara hasn't forgotten. The Broncos are a brilliant 18-9-1 against the spread their last 28 as underdogs, 13 of those resulting in outright victories. They already won outright at Stanford and beat Oregon. In both cases, they were getting points. The Aggies replaced every starter from last year's NCAA tournament team, as well as their coach. They are 9-14 against the spread their last 23 on the road, 0-2 this season. Give me the points. ***Underdog GOM*** |

12-13-23 | Grizzlies v. Rockets OVER 214 | Top | 104-117 | Win | 100 | 12 h 57 m | Show |
On a night where the Pacers and Bucks have a total approaching 260, it's kind of refreshing to see a total this low. It's by far the lowest of the Wednesday NBA games. Too low? I believe so. Houston comes off a great defensive effort. The previous 5 opponents all scored in triple-figures and the Rockets do allow 105.6 points per game. Also, the Rockets are 3-0 to the over last 2 seasons after allowing 90 or less. The Grizzlies allow more than 112 points a game. The Grizzlies were struggling to score, on a 3-game streak where they only scored in double-figures when the teams first met. They've hit triple-figures in 6 straight now and scored 113 last game. They are 24-12-1 to the over last 37 tries off a division game. This game will get over the low total! ***SouthWest Div. TOY*** |

12-13-23 | AC Milan v. Newcastle United OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 7 h 53 m | Show |
The first leg, back in September, was a scoreless draw but this will be entirely different. Both clubs now know that only a victory can possibly help them. That will lead to a wide open and exciting match. Goals will be plentiful. Why not? Neither team has anything to lose. Attacking chances will be the order of the day. Both clubs will find the back of the net and it would not surprise me if they both did so more than once. There will be no quit from the team which is trailing. They will throw caution to the wind which can lead to goals on the counter-attack. This match goes Over! ***Champions League TOY*** |

12-13-23 | Paris Saint-Germain -110 v. Borussia Dortmund | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 51 m | Show |
Paris St Germain needs a victory. Borussia Dortmund is dealing with a lot of injuries. PSG has never lost four consecutive European games on the road. The French club is loading with attacking options. The Germans have conceded at least one goal in four consecutive matches. PSG will find the back of the net on more than one occasion and a depleted Borussia Dortmund squad won't be able to keep up. ***Champions League GOM*** |

12-12-23 | Kings v. Clippers UNDER 234.5 | Top | 99-119 | Win | 100 | 15 h 58 m | Show |
This is a back-to-back situation for both clubs. The only time that the Kings played a road game, after playing the previous day, they scored just 93 points. The final score of that November 20th game fell comfortably under the posted total. When the Clippers played a home game, after playing the previous day, they held Dallas to just 88 points. The final score of that November 25th game also stayed comfortably beneath the posted number. Last night's game was high-scoring but Clipper home games have been going to the under all season. We can expect a return to that brand of basketball tonight. ***Pacific Div. TOY*** |

12-12-23 | Panthers v. Seattle Kraken UNDER 6.5 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 52 m | Show |
Seattle has a scoring problem. The problem is that the Kraken can't score. They average only 2.52 goals a game. That's 4th worst in the NHL. Last game, they scored 0. They have scored 3 or less every time, in losing each of their 8 games. Over their last 5 games, they've scored only 6 combined goals. The Panthers are difficult to score against. They only permit 2.4 goals per road game. 8 of 14 road games have gone under. This season's earlier game finished at 3-2. Florida's visit here last December finished at 5-1. They won't even get that many tonight. ***NHL TOM*** |

12-12-23 | Alcorn State v. Maryland -21.5 | 65-105 | Win | 100 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
The Braves are in over their heads again. Alcorn State is off 7 straight losses. 6 of those came by more than 10 points, including each of the last 5. Last game was a 28 point loss. The game before that was a 21-point loss. That is exactly the type of opponent which Maryland wants to see right now. The Terrapins allow 65 points a game at home, the Braves allow 88 points a game on the road. Maryland will win with ease and improve to 11-6 against the spread the last 17 times it faced a team with a losing record. ***CBB Wipeout*** |

12-11-23 | Titans +14 v. Dolphins | Top | 28-27 | Win | 100 | 10 h 29 m | Show |
Miami may be the flavor of the month but this is far too many points. The Titans manhandled this Miami team last season. Henry didn't even play and they still rushed for 198 yards. The Titans sacked Tua 4 times. He threw an interception and fumbled 3 times. Granted, that was in cold, rainy Nashville and this will be in much warmer Miami. The point remains that Tennessee matched up very well with Miami les than a year ago. This season, six of the Titans' 8 losses came by 14 or less. Vrabel's is liked and respected by the Titan players. They are well aware that is job could be in jeopardy. This is their chance to go out and play hard for him under the National spotlight, going all out for their first road win. This game will be close and I'm grabbing the points. ***MNF GOY*** |

12-11-23 | Nuggets v. Hawks OVER 241 | Top | 129-122 | Win | 100 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
Both these clubs have dropped 3 consecutive games. The Nuggets are 8-2-1 to the over last 2 years after 3 or more straight losses. The Hawks are 9-4 to the over last 2 years after 3 or more straight losses. Denver has played 4 teams from the Eastern Conference. The over is 3-1. Atlanta has played 3 teams from the Western Conference. The over is 2-1. Denver's last game against an Eastern team finished with 243. points and Atlanta's last game against a team from the West finished with 272. Defense. What defense? They can't set this total high enough. The final score will fly over. ***NBA TOM*** |

12-11-23 | Maple Leafs -120 v. Islanders | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -120 | 11 h 43 m | Show |
Leafs are a bargain at this price. Toronto comes off a shutout win. Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe said: "In the second period, especially, our game started to really come and I thought we really took care of the puck and made sure we just were wearing them down and not really let their game get started offensively. I just loved our second period and that set us up for the third, which the guys took care of well." The Maple Leafs outshot the Predators 37-18 and 18-5 in the 3rd period. It was the first time in almost 10 years that they shutout an opponent on 18 or fewer shots. Toronto wins again! ***NHL GOW*** |

12-11-23 | Howard v. Pennsylvania -5 | 68-78 | Win | 100 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
Its been a few years since these teams faced each other. The last time came in 2019 and Penn won by 19 points. Before that, the Quakers won by 17 in 2017. Different faces for today's game but the result will be the same. Howard is 1-4 against the spread, losing all 5 outright, the last 5 times it was a road underdog of 3.5 to 6 points. The Bison haven't played since November and that will hurt them. They are 2-4 against the spread their last 6 after playing with 7 or more day's rest. The Quakers are 18-9-1 against the spread in home games the last 2 years. Off a game against Kentucky, they should win this one fairly comfortably. **CBB CRUSHER** |

12-10-23 | Eagles v. Cowboys -3 | Top | 13-33 | Win | 100 | 131 h 2 m | Show |
I had a big win with Philadelphia in the first meeting. I remember that game well. So do the Cowboys, who will be thinking payback when they host the hated Eagles on Sunday night. Their loss at Philadelphia continued a disturbing trend for Dallas of losing against top teams. The Cowboys will be determined to change that and make things right. They want to prove to themselves and to the world that they don't just beat the bad teams. The setup is perfect. The Cowboys have had had some extra time to rest up and prepare, due to their Thanksgiving game. The Eagles just got a reality check out from the 49ers. Before that, they'd taken on the Bills and Chiefs. All those games against elite teams are going to take a toll. Dallas outscores teams by an average of 14 points. The Eagles outscore teams by an average of 3 points. Dallas is undefeated at home this season and is 7-2 against the spread last 9 as a home favorite of 3.5 to 7 points. Give me the Cowboys. ***Revenge GOY*** |

Iowa is 7-3 against the spread its last 10 tries as a home favorite in the 3.5 to 7 point range. Over that period, Iowa is also 2-0 against the spread after failing to cover in each of the previous 3 games. Michigan is averaging 75.8 points per road game. Iowa is averaging 99.7 points per home game. Hawkeyes won by 9 here last season, covering the -5.5. They do it again this afternoon! ***Conf. Crusher*** |

12-10-23 | Vikings v. Raiders OVER 40 | Top | 3-0 | Loss | -110 | 127 h 52 m | Show |
In my opinion, this number is too low. Both defenses are mediocre, both teams allow more than 20 points a game. The Vikings offense stalled last game but had previously been firing on all cylinders. The Raiders just had three straight games AFC teams, their most recent finishing with 48 points. The three games came against two playoff teams in KC and Miami and a really good defensive team in the New York Jets. Last time they faced an NFC opponent, the Vikings scored 30. Both offenses will have areas where they can enjoy success against these defenses. All 4 meetings over the years finished with at least 44 points. I've got this one penciled in for at least that many once again. ***NFC TOY*** |

12-09-23 | Pacers v. Lakers -4 | Top | 109-123 | Win | 100 | 14 h 46 m | Show |
The Pacers have been scoring points at a high rate and have done very well to get this far. Lebron may be downplaying it but he is on a mission to add in-season tournament champion to his resume. James, Davis and the Lakers will not be denied. The Lakers have allowed only 89, 103 and 97 points over their last 3 games. Indiana will get more but not as many as it normally does. The Lakers superior defense will be on display on ABC TV and will separate them from the Pacers. ***Non-Conf GOM*** |

The Dukes are a good team with a national ranking but this will not be an easy game. Far from it. The stadium will be a white-out and the home team and crowd believes it can pull off the upset. "We're a marked team right now," James Madison coach Mark Byington said. "I'm anticipating that Old Dominion crowd being one of the toughest we play all year." Both JMU road games have been by 5 points or less. These teams had one common non-conf. opponent. Last game here, the Monarchs beat Radford. That same Radford team gave JMU real trouble in a 3-point game. The last 2 JMU visits here were decided by 5 and 2 points. The Monarchs, 4-2 against the spread their last 6 tries after 3 straight non-covers, hung within single digits at Arkansas. JMU coach Byington went on to say: "I know they've been excited about our game and it's a really good team, good coach. Great intra-state game. It's a little odd playing in December but here we go." Give me the points. ***Sun Belt GOY*** |

Army enters as the hotter team but that isn't necessarily a positive. The Black Knights have been out of action since November 18th. The last time that they played with more than a week off, the Knights were small favorites against Boston College. They lost that game outright. They are 21-44-2 against the spread, when coming off a bye. Navy hasn't had nearly as long a layoff. The Midshhipmen are 7-5 against the spread the last 12 times that they were off a conference loss and 16-9 ATS their last 25 as underdogs. Go. Navy! |

12-09-23 | Florida Gulf Coast +10 v. Minnesota | 57-77 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 26 m | Show | |
Give me the points with Florida Gulf Coast. Though the Eagles have gotten off to a tough start, they are better than their sub-500 record indicates. The Eagles brought back 4 of their top 5 scorers (8 of top 10) from a team which won 17 games. The Gophers may be without the versatile Dawson Garcia, as he left last game with a leg injury. The Gophers are a dismal 1-9 against the spread their last 10 games against teams with a losing record. Grabe the points! |

12-08-23 | Kings v. Suns +2 | Top | 114-106 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
No Durant. No problem. Even though they're short-handed, the Suns will be bringing their best on Friday night. Remember, that Booker carried the load before Durant arrived and that he can still do so. With Durant out, we get the Suns as underdogs and don't have to worry about laying any points. The Kings are 4-8 against the spread as favorites and they're 3-6 against the spread the past 9 times that they played with 3 or more day's rest. The Suns are 74-31 straight-up their last 105 in this building. They score 118.2 at home compared to Sacramento's 112.9 on the road. Booker will have a monster game and the Suns will move to 12-8 against the spread their last 20 home games with a total of 230 or more. ***Pacific Div GOY*** |

The Panthers are playing well and they just beat a good Dallas team. They are 15-8-2 on the season. The Penguins (11-11-3) aren't what they used to be. I played against them their last game and that was their 3rd straight loss. They have dropped 8 of their past 11 games (3-5-3). The Pittsburgh power play is a woeful 0-for-33 over the past 12 games. Crosby has seen better days. The Panthers take to the road after this and will make sure to close out the home stand with a victory. ***Dominator*** |

Their previous game produced only 204. They are 9-5 to the under when listed as favorites. The Pelicans upset the Kings to get here. They are 6-2 to the under off a SU win as an underdog, 4-1 to the under off a win by 10 points or more. Neither team scores as many when away from its home floor. This game goes under. ***Western Conf. TOM*** |

12-07-23 | Patriots +6.5 v. Steelers | Top | 21-18 | Win | 100 | 59 h 6 m | Show |
Off a loss to Arizona, the Steelers are 3-3 over their last 6 games. All 3 of their wins came by 6 points or less. The Patriots lost by 14 at Miami in October. That's the only of their past 7 games which was decided by more than 6 points. Every other game has been ultra-close. The defense has allowed 10 points or less in 3 straight. That makes beating the Patriots by more than 6 points very difficult. The Patriots may score the fewest points but the Steelers aren't far behind. They average only 16 a game. A bad Steeler offense against a great New England defense. With the Steelers 0-5 against the spread the past 5 times that they were home favorites of 3.5 to 7, I'm happy to take the points. ***TNF GOM*** |

You've heard me say it before. Anytime that the Maple Leafs are priced this low, I'm going to take a closer look. In this case, a closer look reveals that this is a strong spot. The Leafs are rested and playing with revenge from an earlier loss. Toronto was last in action on December 2nd, losing to Boston. The Leafs are 10-4 their past 14 tries with 3 or more day's rest. Over the same period, the Leafs are 50-29 after allowing 4 or more goals. Ottawa is 30-40 after scoring 4 or more and only 29-54 against winning teams. Throw in a 22-10 record for Toronto when playing with revenge from a home loss and you see why this play is so strong. ***Atlantic Division GOM*** |

UNC Greensboro is 9-16-1 against the spread at home the last 2 years. The Spartans only returned 1 starter from last year. They are 2-10 against the spread the past 12 times that they scored 80 or more points in their last game. EKU won by 4 last December. This will be another close one. ***Road Warrior*** |

The game before that, they combined for 216. Before that, they combined for just 188. Miami road games are averaging 216 points this season, much lower than Miami home games.

The Lakers have managed to win both of this season's games. That changes tonight. The Suns had Durant for the first 2 games but not Booker. Tonight, they'll have both. Booker is averaging 27.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 8.4 assists through 11 games. Each of the first 2 games were very close. Adding Booker to the Suns makes them far more dangerous than the team that LA saw in those first 2 games. The Lakers are 0-3 against the spread on the season, after allowing less than 100 points in their previous games. In two of those instances, they allowed more than 130 points in losing the next game. Booker, Durant and the Suns will take this one. ***Pacific Div. GOM*** |

The Kings have been remarkable on the road but they won't be excited about a visit to Ohio. The Kings have played in Columbus 4 times the last 4 seasons. The Blue Jackets won the first by a 4-1 score. The last 3 games here all were tied after regulation. The Jackets ended up winning 2 of those. The last time that the Kings won a game here by more than 1 goal was back in 2017. The Blue Jackets have scored 18 goals in winning 3 of their last 4 at home. Columbus' Boone Jenner, who leads the team in goals said: "I think we've got to use the momentum when we have it." The Jackets will carry their home ice momentum into this one and have a strong chance of handing the Kings their first road loss. ***Non-Conf. GOW*** |

I know this is a Big Ten game between two teams typically known for defense but this total is too low. The Badgers average 74 points a game. The Spartans average 74.9. The Spartans have scored at least 65 points in all 7 of their games. The Badgers have scored at least 65 in 7 of their 8 games. Though the one that they didn't reach 65 in came on the road, the Badgers are 15-8-1 to the over in road games past 2 seasons, 5-3 as road underdogs of 3.5 to 6 points. Both teams reached the 65 mark in the last meetings, a 69-65 win for the Spartans in January. Both teams will hit at least 65 again, the winning team exceeding that number.

The Bengals struggled in Browning's first start. He's gotten his feet wet now and will be better from the experience. He also expects to have Tee Higgins back, a luxury he didn't have against Baltimore. Browning, who did complete 19 of 26 passes for 227 yards against the Ravens, said this of Higgins: "Tee's one of the top receivers in the NFL. I don't think can really put into words how important he is to this offense ... there's just something that Tee brings the table being as big, as fast and having the experience he does, where it's always nice to have him and Ja'Marr on the outside." The Bengals are 15-7 against the spread their last 22 as underdogs. The Jaguars won by 3 last game and have only won one of their last 5 games by more than 10. Grab the points! **NFL GOW** |

The Bison haven't played since the loss at San Jose State. They are 6-4 straight-up the last 10 times that they played with revenge from a road loss, 62-40 their last 102. They are also 5-2 straight-up their last 7 when playing with 5 or 6 day's rest in between games, 50-24 their last 74. They will be the fresher team. The Spartans are 6-24 straight-up their last 30 road games, 0-7 when the total was in the 135 to 139.5 range. They are 5-56 their last 61 in that spot.

The Chiefs have scored 31 or more in 2 of their last 3 against the Packers. Green Bay scored 29 last game. Packers coach Matt LaFleur played things more aggressively after expressing remorse for previously being too conservative with his play-calling. The game finished with 51 points.

Carolina's last five visits to Tampa have finished with scores of 41, 63, 48, 58 and 54 points. The last 4 of those all went over the total. Last season's game at Carolina had 24 points but the game at Tampa had 54. This season, Tanpa games average 39.9 points. Carolina games average 42.2 points.

Perhaps this isn't the most exciting game on the board but the best value is often found in the lesser known conferences. Utah Valley is projected to be a top 5 team in the WAC Conference. Utah Tech is projected to finish dead last. The Wolverines did lose a lot from last season but new coach Todd Phillips still has a lot to work with. The Trailblazers will play their first home game.

Michigan averages 37.6 points a game. That's more than this total is set at. It's entirely possible that the Wolverines exceed this total all by themselves. They're favored by more than 3 touchdowns. So, they're going to expected to score more than that. Remember they scored at least 30 in every game but one. Iowa is all about defense. That we know. But the Hawkeyes also know that they will need to score points, if they want to avoid total embarrassment. The last meeting had 41 points and the one before that had 45. The 45-point game (42-3 Michigan) was right here in the Big 10 Championship game. Last year's Big 10 title game had 65 points. This game goes over the low number! |

Those Rousey fights (both losses) were back in 2012 and 2013. Tate retired in 2016. Out of the sport for 5 years, she returned in 2021. She's been outclassed in both fights since coming back and has now lost 4 of her last 5. Clearly, Tate is on the downside of her career. She probably should have never come back. Avila has been out of action due to a pregancy. She left at the top of her game though. She's a couple years younger than Tate and still believes her time is yet to come: Avila said: "I’m going to see this through and there’s going to be a title in my future." She fought really hard to get back and will build up her name by handing Tate her 3rd loss in a row. ***UFC Fight Of The Year*** |

12-02-23 | Missouri State v. Drake -6.5 | Top | 57-74 | Win | 100 | 8 h 44 m | Show |
Knowing that they got swept by them last season, the Bulldogs will be too much for the Bears this afternoon. Missouri State hasn't faced competition this good. The Bulldogs will be on of the top teams in the Missouri Valley Conf. again this season. They began conference play by crushing Valparaiso. Their 46-29 second half will act as a springboard into today's game. Bulldogs average 83 points at home. Bears average 68 points on the road. Drake wins by 10+! ***MVC GOM*** |

12-02-23 | Boise State -2.5 v. UNLV | 44-20 | Win | 100 | 72 h 35 m | Show | |
Boise State is peaking at the right time. UNLV is not. The Broncos are off three straight convincing wins. The Rebels just lost to San Jose State. The Spartans had nearly 500 yards of offense. San Jose State arguably deserved to be here, after beating the Rebels, but a computer broke the 3-way tie. The previous game, the Rebels allowed 344 rushing yards. Broncos are 5-2-1 against the spread last 8 tried laying points. Rebels 3-7 against the spread last 10 tries as home dogs of 3 or less. Lay the small number with the better team. |

12-02-23 | Miami-OH v. Toledo UNDER 46.5 | Top | 23-14 | Win | 100 | 123 h 60 m | Show |
Miami is here because of defense. The RedHawks permit only 16.3 points a game. Toledo is also stout on defense. The Rockets concede 20.4 points a game. The regular season game finished with 38 points. The RedHawks held the Rockets scoreless in the second half but couldn't erase a 21-3 halftime deficit. Toledo was in this game last year and beat Ohio 17-7. That game finished way below the total. Defense rules the day once again! ***MAC TOY** |

12-02-23 | Wolverhampton Wanderers v. Arsenal UNDER 3 | Top | 1-2 | Push | 0 | 21 h 55 m | Show |
Arsenal has conceded only two goals in its past 6 matches. 4 clean sheets and a pair of 1-goal games. Wolverhampton has scored only once in its last 4 matches against Arsenal. Of the last 8 head-to-head matches, only 1 has produced more than 3 goals. Wolverhampton will play conservatively. Arsenal won't come anywhere close to matching the number of goals it had against Lens last game. One or two at most. That's all that will be required as Wolverhampton likely won't score at all. Go with the Under! ***Soccer TOY*** |

12-01-23 | San Diego State -13.5 v. UC San Diego | 63-62 | Loss | -115 | 14 h 1 m | Show | |
Six meetings between these "rivals" since 2006, 2 in the past 2 years. The Aztecs won all six games. All 6 victories came by at least 16 points. This will be another destruction. The Tritons are off 3 straight losses and they've been getting progressively worse. Last loss came by 27 points. That loss came against a team (Washington) which the Aztecs have beaten. Lay the points with the road team and enjoy the beating. ***Road Warrior*** |

12-01-23 | Wizards +11 v. Magic | Top | 125-130 | Win | 100 | 11 h 15 m | Show |
It's not easy to blow a team out two games in a row. Orlando hammered Washington a couple of days ago. It won't happen again! The Wizards have been at their best when off a bad loss. They're 71.4% against the spread when off a loss of 10 or more. Magic 12-15-1 against the spread last 28 when off a win of 10+. Washington coach Wes Unseld Jr: "We just have to get there with a little more urgency..." The Wizards will play with a sense of urgency and they will improve to 13-7 against the spread their last 20 tries after giving up 130+. **southeast GOY** |

12-01-23 | Senators v. Blue Jackets UNDER 6.5 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 115 | 11 h 16 m | Show |
Ottawa scored 0 last game and has managed 5 goals total its last 3 games. Averaging 2.88 goals, Columbus is one of the lower-scoring teams in the league. The Jackets scored 2 last game which marked the third time in 4 games that they scored less than 3 goals. None of the last 9 meetings have exceeded 7 goals. Six games since 2022 have averaged less than 5 goals each. Under is 5-1 in Blue Jackets last 6 vs. a team with a losing record. Blue Jackets are also 4-1 to the under last 5 tries when playing with 1 day's rest in between games. This game goes Under! ***EASTERN CONF TOM*** |

12-01-23 | Iona v. Fairfield UNDER 147 | Top | 78-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
The Stags have a reputation for defense. Their last 3 meetings with Iona have all finished with 144 or less. Last game finished with 131. The Gaels are 4-1 to the under last 5 tries, when playing a road game where the total is 145 to 149.5. Iona opened up MAAC Conference play with a 68-64 loss against Marist. They've failed to reach 70 in either of their road games. Fairfield is 8-4 to the under last 12 in December. Defense will rule the day! ***MAAC TOY*** |

11-30-23 | UC-Davis v. Oregon State -2.5 | Top | 59-71 | Win | 100 | 13 h 43 m | Show |
There's a big difference between the Pac-12 and the Big West. The Beavers will likely find things tough in their own conference. UC Davis may have more success within theirs. That makes winning this non-conference game a priority for the Beavers. They can't afford to squander opportunities against squads from lesser conferences. The Aggies are 0-3 against the spread the past 3 tries as road underdogs of 3 or fewer points. The last time that the Beavers were favored, they won by 10 points, when laying -2.5. They get it done again tonight! ***NOV GOM*** |

11-30-23 | Seahawks +9.5 v. Cowboys | Top | 35-41 | Win | 100 | 11 h 4 m | Show |
The Cowboys have been clobbering bad teams. The Seahawks aren't a bad team though and Dallas has far more trouble with better teams. Dallas is only 4-8 against the spread last 12 against winning teams. The Cowboys also have a very big game upcoming against the Eagles next week. Off their Thanksgiving Day romp and looking ahead to that game, Seattle could be overlooked. Seattle is 7-3 against the spread last 10 tries after losing 2 or more games in a row. Grab the points! ***NFC GOM*** |

11-30-23 | Pistons +13.5 v. Knicks | Top | 112-118 | Win | 100 | 11 h 33 m | Show |
I can understand that some bettors don't like taking a team like the Pistons. Personally, I don't like to pass up opportunities. The Pistons got blown out last night. That has allowed us to get a couple of extra points. Detroit doesn't mind playing 2 games in 2 days though. They have been in that situation 4 times this season. They won 1 game and the other 3 losses all came by 11 or less. They almost upset Denver. They are 17-13-1 against the spread in back to back situations the last 2 years. The Knicks have a division road game tomorrow night. They will be tested. Grab the points! ***Eastern Conf GOW*** |

11-30-23 | Devils -133 v. Flyers | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
Flyers have more points in the standings but the Devils are favored on the road. That says a lot. The Devils are the stronger team. They beat the Flyers 7-0 last meeting. The favorite has won 6 of the past 8 meetings. The Devils won their last 2 games and are now on a roll. The Flyers lost their last game and have now dropped 3 of 4. Both teams have been a little better on the road. Road team takes this one! ***Road Warrior*** |

11-30-23 | Fairleigh Dickinson v. Fordham UNDER 159 | Top | 52-80 | Win | 100 | 10 h 1 m | Show |
This is a very high total considering that the Rams are a good defensive team. They allow 67.5 points a game and a 41% field goal percentage. They are 15-7 to the under the past 22 tries when the total ranges from 150 to 159.5. The Knights are not very good defensively, the reason for such a high total. The Knights can play defense though. We saw that last March. Remember, this team shocked the world and held Purdue to 58 points in the NCAA Tournament last year. Look for the under to more to 7-3 last 10 times that Fordham scored 80 or more in the previous game. ***CBB TOW*** |

11-29-23 | Jazz v. Grizzlies -4 | Top | 91-105 | Win | 100 | 11 h 13 m | Show |
The Grizzlies are going to really want this game. They're still winless at home and need to fix that. They're also 0-2 against Utah already this season. They're going to want to fix that, too. Adding to the revenge angle, the most recent of those games had some controversy. Memphis player Jared Jackson got ejected with a double-technical. Coach Jenkins said: "One of the most poorly officiated games I've ever seen," which led to him being fined $25,000 by the NBA. He went on to say: "Our team is competing their tails off, and this is what happens? The interaction right now with the officials, complete disrespect. It's unbelievable. ... I don't understand it." Grizzlies are 40-30-2 against the spread in the revenge role last 2 years, 12-8-2 against the spread when avenging a home loss. They will improve to 16-8 against the spread their last 24, after scoring 100 or less. ***Revenge GOM*** |

11-29-23 | Tarleton St v. Stephen F Austin -8.5 | Top | 68-66 | Loss | -112 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
Stephen Austin has a very well-coached team and the program has a lot of pride. They beat Drake but then got blown out by Utah State. That won't sit well. Off its previous loss, SFA won its next game by 26 points. The Lumberjacks are bigger, stronger and more experienced than last year. Importantly, they're also healthier. Last season, they dealt with a lot of injury problems. That isn't an issue so far this season. The Lumberjacks are better than the Texans in the frontcourt and also in the backcourt. They're a team destined to finish near the top of the WAC, Tarleton State should finish near the basement. Texans are 1-7 against the spread last 8 tries when playing with 5 or 6 day's rest. Lay the points. ***WAC GOY*** |

11-28-23 | Golden Knights v. Oilers -140 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
The Oilers have found their footing and they have a scheduling advantage working for them. The Knights have taken a big step back from last year. For all their success, the Knights are a dismal 6-14 their last 20 when playing 2 games in 2 days. The Knights have only scored 3 goals in their last 4 games. The Oilers scored 8 in their last game and 13 in their last 2 games. Oilers play with revenge from last year's playoffs and will win their third straight. |

11-28-23 | NC State v. Ole Miss -1.5 | Top | 52-72 | Win | 100 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
The Rebels are 3-0 at home, 5-0 overall. The WolfPack are playing their first true road game. They are only 7-13 their last 20 away games, 0-4 SU in road games with a total of 145 to 149.5. The Rebels are finding a way to win close games. Three straight wins of 3 points or less. Wolfpack just gave up 95 points in a loss against BYU. They are 7-13 last 20 times after giving up 80 or more. Rebels keep on winning! **Tuesday Takedown** |

11-28-23 | Missouri +6.5 v. Pittsburgh | 71-64 | Win | 100 | 9 h 40 m | Show | |
First instalment of the ACC/SEC challenge. The Tigers have had some trouble covering as favorites but this is their first time as underdogs. They've won 4 of their last 5 and the only loss was by 1 point. The Panthers just blew out Oregon State but the Beavers are among the worst teams in the Pac-12. Before that the Panthers played an SEC opponent, as they will here, and lost by 15. Florida's defense gave the Panthers trouble and Missouri will use similar methods. The Panthers other games all came against weak opposition. The Tigers will give them fits. Grab the points. **Road Warrior** |

11-28-23 | Islanders v. Devils -158 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
Isles are off a shutout loss. They are 0-4 after scoring 1 goal or less in previous game. They are also 0-7 in their last 7 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. The Devils broke out with a big game last time, scoring 7 goals. The Devils are 5-0 in their last 5 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. Back the better team that just scored 7 and is playing at home against the team which just failed to score at all. |

11-28-23 | Panthers v. Maple Leafs -126 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
Leafs have home ice advantage. Leafs also have scheduling advantage. They have had 2 days off and Florida played last night. Panthers played yesterday and they are only 11-17 (-12.2) last 2 years when playing 2 games in 2 days. Leafs are 29-19 when playing with 2 day's rest in that time. Toronto is 44-26 last 70 in revenge role. Go Leafs Go! |

11-27-23 | North Dakota State +9 v. San Jose State | 65-78 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 4 m | Show | |
The Bison are always a force in the Summit Conference and they've got an experienced team this season. They are more than capable of pulling off the upset tonight. The Spartans lost a lot from last season, including star player Omari Moore. They're already dealing with a few injuries. NDSU lost last game but is still 20-14 against the spread last 2 seasons on the road. They have faced Creighton on the road and they already won outright at Montana. This game will come down to the wire. Grab the points. ***Road Warrior*** |

11-27-23 | Bears v. Vikings OVER 44 | Top | 12-10 | Loss | -110 | 30 h 41 m | Show |
Fields is back and the Bears offense is looking better. The defense continues to struggle. Chicago's last game saw 57 points scored. Vikings scored 27 last home game, a 46 point game against New Orleans. Minnesota home games average 44 but Bears' road games average 49.3. Bears last three visits here have had scores of 51, 48 and 60. This one goes over! **NFC North TOM** |

11-27-23 | Blazers v. Pacers UNDER 240.5 | Top | 114-110 | Win | 100 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
The Pacers have been streaking to the over all season long. Games have been flying above the total. Their over streak will come to an end tonight. Portland only scores 104.4 points per game this season. That's the lowest in the NBA. A 43.2% field goal percentage is second worst. Last season's game here the total was 237.5 and the game only finished with 207 points. Blazers already 4-1 to the under against Eastern Conference teams. This game goes under! ***NBA TOW*** |
