11-20-19 | UC-Davis v. CS Sacramento -4.5 | 51-61 | Win | 100 | 9 h 41 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber NCAAB Bonus Best Bet is on the Sacramento State Hornets Bullet Analysis: Sacto State starts five upperclassmen and is No.44 in experience out of 352 Div-I board teams. Cal Davis turns the ball over just about once out of every four possessions and shoots just 23% from downtown. Short number and plenty of value here. |

11-20-19 | Austin Peay v. Vanderbilt -7.5 | 72-90 | Win | 100 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber NCAAB Bonus Best Bet is on Vanderbilt Commodores Bullet Analysis: Vandy pounded two stiffs and lost in OT to a very good Richmond team. The 'Dores have shot lights out and that will serve them well against an Austin Peay outfit that plays no perimeter defense, opponents shooting a robust 44% from beyond the arc. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Hornets +4.5 v. Nets | 91-101 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber NBA Bonus Best Bet is on the Charlotte Hornets Bullet Analysis: Granted … the Hornets are not much but they play hard and do their best work on the road where they are 5-1 ATS in six road games. The Nets are have lost 4 of 5, are 1-4 as a home fave, and just 3-6 SU L9 in the series. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Akron v. Miami-OH -30.5 | 17-20 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 56 m | Show | |
DMack's Weds Night MAC Daddy is on the Miami Red Hawks Let me preface this play by saying that laying more than four touchdowns in a MAC conference game is not a long term recipe for success but in this case, it's warranted. Akron has not won OR COVERED a game this year. The 0-10 SU and ATS Zips are No.130 in Div-I in scoring, rushing the football, and turnover margin. Akron is No.123 in scoring defense allowing better than 36 ppg. and have lost their five road games by an average score of 42-12. Miami, Oh is the best MAC team by the eye test and also on paper. The 6-4 Red Hawks have three non-conference losses to Iowa, Cincinnati and Ohio State and their lone conference loss cam early on at Western Michigan. Miami clinches the MAC East with a win here and comes off a 44-3 rout of an equally bad Bowling Green team in it's last so the Hawks can win by margin. Miami, Oh 51-10. |
|||||||
11-20-19 | Siena v. Yale -4.5 | 89-100 | Win | 100 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber NCAAB Bonus Best Bet is on Yale Bulldogs Bullet Analysis: Yale should enjoy home court and a huge drop in class after facing the No.56 toughest schedule and return from West coast roadie against better. Bulldogs start three seniors and two juniors. |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Thunder v. Lakers -10.5 | 107-112 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Lakers The Thunder have lost all five of their road games this year (3-2 ATS) and left it on the floor (this floor) last night when Paul George hit a late three inside of 30 seconds for the win. OKC is not very good, not very deep, and second of B2B is not the best of spots. The Lakers are 11-1 in their L12 and 6-2 this year as a home fave. We saw very similar situation on the weekend when the Clippers tenderized the Hawks 150-101 on Saturday and the Lakers cooked the bird by 20 less than 24 hours later. Get in early if you can as it will likely be 12-13 at tip. |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Texas-Arlington v. Gonzaga -23 | 66-72 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 52 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Gonzaga Bulldogs As you can probably tell bey now if you've been with me, I'm not too proud to cash a ticket on a bully that can win by 50 laying 20 whatever. That's what we have here. The Zags return just one starter but their new crew is 4-0, knocking down 42% of their treys and shooting 62% inside the arc. They beat Texas A&M by 30 over the weekend. Gonzaga beat this Arlington team 89-55 last year. The Mavericks try hard but this is their third straight roadies after losses by 7 at Nevada and by 20 at Oregon. Zag reserves always play hard while waiting for their turn so the back door is shut tight. |
|||||||
11-19-19 | Ohio -20 v. Bowling Green | 66-24 | Win | 100 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
DMack's Tuesday Night MAC Attack winner is the Ohio Bobcats Good news bad news for the Ohio Bobcats. The bad news is that Ohio lost its last two home games by a field goal and must now win out on the road to get bowl eligible for the 5th straight year. The good news is that the road games are short drives to Bowling Green and Akron so Frank Solich and Co. have no excuses. This is so much more a fade of Bowling Green than a recommendation on Ohio to win with suitcase by margin. The BGs are 2-9 ATS in their L11 home games period and rock an offense that hasn't surpassed 277 yards in three straight. The Falcons also cannot stop the run allowing better than 5.5 ypc., not good against a Cat offense that c0-features two pretty good backs in Tuggle and Allison. Ohio has won three straight in the series, posting 97 points in the last two. Ohio should be interested here and again … there are no excuses. |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Southern Utah v. UCLA -11.5 | 61-76 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show | |
Mack Attack Subscriber Bonus Play winner is on the UCLA Bruins Southern Utah is pretty good for what they are and predicted to compete for Big Sky title. The T-Birds have a win over Nebraska and lost at BY by five. USU's achilles heel is that they are shooting just 11% from beyond the arc. Mick Cronin has brought his magic to Westwood with three wins of 14+. Cronin is a proven winner from his prior stops at Murray State and Cincinnati and will do good things here. |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Chiefs -4 v. Chargers | 24-17 | Win | 100 | 10 h 45 m | Show | |
DMack's Chief/Chargers Week 11 Monday night Mayhem winner is the Kansas City Chiefs This is Kansas City's second scheduled trip to Mexico City. Las year, the field was deemed unplayable and the game was moved to the Los Angeles Coliseum and a year ago tomorrow, the Rams beat the Chiefs 54-51 in a Monday night semi-classic. Techs all favor the Bolts in this spot but just see more urgency with the Chiefs who have lost four of six and have their bye next week. Mahomes threw for 446 yards in his return last week versus the Titans and he's skewered the Chargers in the prior meetings of his young career. The Chief defense has been horrific but the offenses that give Kansas City problems are the ones with mobile quarterbacks. Philip Rivers is anything but mobile. This game is dependent on Kansas City's front seven. Mahomes will get his and you can figure on 30+ points. If Kansas City can keep Rivers in the pocket and get some type of pressure, Rivers will make mistakes ... he has all year! The Raider defense is not much better than Kansas City's and they gave Rivers fits last week. The Chief's are on a 15-5 ATS roll through the AFC West and we fully expect them to extend that here. Chiefs 41-27. |

11-18-19 | Cavs +3 v. Knicks | 105-123 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Cleveland Cavaliers The Cavs have lost three straight but those were a home-and-home with the 76ers and versus Miami so no shame there. Four back was a 108-87 win over these same Knicks on this same floor. The Knicks are 2-9 L11 with two inexplicable wins over the Mavs. Cleveland is not much but they play hard and their four wins (Indiana, Chicago, Washington, NYK) are against their own kind. The Knicks are going to have to show us. Cavs straight up. |
|||||||
11-18-19 | Appalachian State v. NC-Greensboro -9 | 41-55 | Win | 100 | 7 h 24 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on NC-Greensboro These two have a common opponent in Montana State. App State lost by three to the Bobcats, Greensboro was beat by a 50-foot heave at the buzzer. The Mountaineers are picked to finish at the bottom of the Sun Belt while Greensboro returns three from a 29 win team last year. The Spartans are experienced and much like West Virginia in that they are deep and play people. The UNCG bench is actually 28th of 352 in minutes played. The line reflects the quality of Greensboro in a game at face looks closer than it actually is. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Detroit v. Clemson -14.5 | 65-87 | Win | 100 | 3 h 46 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Clemson Tigers Clemson is 2-1 with a 7-point loss to a pretty good Virginia Tech outfit and a nice double-digit win over Colgate which is a co-fave in it's conference. Detroit has played just one game, an 84-65 loss at North Carolina State last Sunday, so this is the Titan's second trip to tobacco road in a week. An unknown quantity at this point, most pundits have Detroit finishing at or near the bottom so we'll assume they are not much. The Tigers have Bama A&M on deck before getting serious with TCU, Minnesota, and Florida State. Clemson is deep and physical and should bully this group of overmatched Michiganders. Clemson 83-58. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | New Mexico State v. Arizona -12.5 | 53-83 | Win | 100 | 2 h 11 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAB Subscriber Bonus Play is on the Arizona Wildcats The Miller off-season drama appears to has been not much and this edition of the Cats has looked like killers beating Illinois by 21 and a couple of tomato can by 39 and 48. New Mexico State starts 5 seniors, 4 of whom were starters on last year's 30 win Aggie team that lost by a point to Auburn in the Dance. That said, don't be confused as the WAC has the worst RPI of the 25+ Div-I conferences. This same NMSU team lost its last to UTEP by 15. The team is not much. Zona frosh PG Mannion is already being touted as the best to come down the line at a Tuscon and that's saying something. Arizona can name the score and wins by 20. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Falcons v. Panthers -4 | 29-3 | Loss | -110 | 35 h 55 m | Show | |
DMack's NFL 500* Game of the Week winner is the Carolina Panthers The Falcons unexpected win over the Saints last week did not come without a cost as half the Dirty Bird significant roster will miss here with injuries. Despite the Falcons win in the Super Dome, Atlanta is 1-4 ATS on the road this year and 2-9 L11 as a road dog. Strangely enough, this is November 17th and this is Atlanta's first outdoor game this season. BTW, the Falcons are also 2-10 ATS L12 on natural grass, Look for lots of McCaffrey here in a game the Panthers have to win in the crowded race for a wildcard. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Jets +2.5 v. Redskins | 34-17 | Win | 100 | 35 h 51 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Power Pack winner is on the New York Jets The Skins have lost three straight by a 52-18 and haven't scored an offensive touchdown in their L23 drives. Haskins makes his second career start but that might be more of a negative than a shot in the arm as the rook out of Ohio State has not shown he can play at this level in his limited opportunities. The Jets are 0-4 on the road with all four losses by 14+ points. Gang Green did do some good things against the Giants and have beaten the Cowboys this year. From a talent aspect, Jets are much the best and the better team getting points is always a good spot to be in. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Bills v. Dolphins +7 | 37-20 | Loss | -125 | 35 h 44 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Power Pack winner is on the Miami Dolphins Sometimes you just make your bet and hold your nose. This is one of those games. Buff (-17) beat the Dolphins 31-21 in Week 7 but remember that the Bills were down 14-9 at the half, outgained for the game by 76 yards, and ran an onside kick back for a touchdown in the final seconds. The Dolphins have won two straight and have led their last four games at the half so they are playing hard behind Fitzmagic. A kick decides this one either way. |
|||||||
11-17-19 | Saints -5 v. Bucs | 34-17 | Win | 100 | 35 h 43 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Power Pack winner is on the New Orleans Saints New Orleans ran into the Atlanta Falcons while they were having a "perfect storm", much like what happened to the Packers against San Diego. The Saints beat Tampa Bay 31-24 with Teddy Bridgewater but that final was deceiving in that they outgained the Bucs by 225 yards, converted 8-15 3rd downs, and gained a generous 9.6 yards-per-passing-ATTEMPT. Saints get back on track with an easy double-digit win. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Oregon State -10.5 v. Wyoming | Top | 83-63 | Win | 100 | 8 h 34 m | Show |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Oregon State Beavers The Oregon State returns three starters and use a rotation of three seniors and three juniors including Tinkle who scored 28 points in a Beaver 19-point win over Wyoming last year. The Cowboys have scored 85 combined points in their last two losses and haven't shown anything to give ANY indications that they can compete here. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | UCLA +21.5 v. Utah | 3-49 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 34 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the UCLA Bruins Wild possibilities here as it is UCLA that actually controls its fate in the Pac12 South. The Bruins have finally caught on to Chip Kelly's offensive scheme and the defense has inexplicably thrown the switch in the last three games as well. The host is just 1-6 ATS L7 in this series. The Utes will try and bully the Bruins in the trenches but not 21 points worth. Take 'em. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Hornets +3.5 v. Knicks | 103-102 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Charlotte Hornets The Hornets have lost 4 of 5 but are 3-1 ATS as a road dog and won't find a better spot to get healthy than this. The Knicks are 1-12 this year against anyone not wearing a Dallas Maverick uniform. Charlotte beat the Pistons last night on a buzzer beater so they should be felling good here for a game that is very winnable. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Oklahoma v. Baylor +10 | 34-31 | Win | 100 | 73 h 10 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Baylor Bears It's put up or shut time for the Bears who control there own destiny in this possible Big 12 championship game preview. Baylor is patient and deliberate of offense and does not turn the ball over. The defense is the best in the Big 12 and team is supremely coached by Matt Ruhl. For the techies out there ... team that undefeated and home home dogs after Week 10 and beyond are a gaudy 15-4-1 ATS. Won't call for Bears to win straight up but we will take the double-digit points. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Appalachian State -16.5 v. Georgia State | 56-27 | Win | 100 | 18 h 22 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Appalachian State Mountaineers App State now has a leg up in the Sun Belt and two wins over Power Five schools after taking down South Carolina last week. The Mountaineers are 5-0 (3-1-1 ATS) in five meetings with Georgia State winning by an average of 28+ per. The Mounties are also 10-4 L14 as SBC chalk and will not falter here. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Cincinnati -14 v. South Florida | 20-17 | Loss | -100 | 73 h 39 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Game of the Week winner is on the Cincinnati Bearcats South Florida is 4-0 ATS the last four times it has hosted Cincinnati but recent history means nothing here as the Bulls are completely overmatched and the Bearcats are essentially off a bye (a 48-3 win over UConn) with bigger fish to fry down the road. Cincinnati still in line for one of the better Bowls. Cincinnati 45-17. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Air Force -10 v. Colorado State | 38-21 | Win | 100 | 19 h 34 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Air Force Falcons Both teams had last week off. Air Force is on a 3-0 SU and ATS Mountain West run while Colorado State has salvaged its season with three straight wins after a 1-5 start. Road favorite has not been the best spot for the Falcons but this Flyboy outfit is the best in recent years, rushing for 377 per and facing a Ram stop unit giving up better than 178 per outing. Air Force has extra time to recover from physical war with Army and should prevail by margin in this regional rivalry. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Kentucky -9 v. Vanderbilt | 38-14 | Win | 100 | 15 h 56 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Kentucky Wildcats The Wildcats didn't do themselves any favors by losing to Tennessee last week and now need two wins to get Bowl eligible. Vandy is down to it's 3rd string QB and could only manage 128 yards of total offense against Florida last week The Dores are also on a 1-5 ATS run and 2-7 L9 as a home dog. UK is not much but has no excuses to not take care of business here. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Coastal Carolina v. Arkansas State -13 | 27-28 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 39 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Arkansas State Red Wolves Arkansas State has found it's mojo and is well rested off a bye. Coastal Carolina also has had some extra time after getting smoked by ULL 48-7 last Thursday. Ark State is 14-4 ATS in their L18 as a home fave while the Chants are just 3-9 L12 as a road dog. All ASU here. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Troy -6.5 v. Texas State | 63-27 | Win | 100 | 15 h 36 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Troy Trojans Texas State has not covered a game this year (0-7-1) and haven't been able to stop anyone on the ground (No.124) and don't figure to here facing Trojan dynamic duo of Barker and Billingsley (6.8 ypc.) The Troy ball control offense will have a lot of success while burning clock and protecting their flawed stop unit against a pretty much toothless Bobcat offense. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Wisconsin -14 v. Nebraska | 37-21 | Win | 100 | 66 h 34 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Wisconsin Badgers Recent press conferences by Frost have all but indicated that he's thrown in the towel on this bunch and that there will be full scale changes in Lincoln next year. The Badgers rebounded from Ohio State thumping with a win over Iowa that was nowhere as close as the 24-22 final. Jonathon Taylor win run for 200 plus and the Badgers win by 20. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Michigan State v. Michigan -13.5 | 10-44 | Win | 100 | 23 h 29 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Michigan Wolverines Forget the prior recent series history. Michigan State is arguably the biggest disappointment in college football and has mailed it in as evidenced by last week's fourth straight loss, a game they led Illinois by 31-10 in the fourth quarter. Michigan is playing their best football of the year and Harbaugh will have no qualms about spanking this cross-state rival. |
|||||||
11-16-19 | Tulane v. Temple +6 | 21-29 | Win | 100 | 11 h 1 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Temple Owls This is the best Tulane team in a long time and the Waves are off a bye after beating up lesser. Temple got back on track with a win over South Florida after going 0-3 through the Memphis, SMU, UCF guantlet. The Owls might not have the firepower of Tulane but their defense is better, at home where they are 7-3-1 L11 as a home dog with 7 straight up wins. Too many points. |
|||||||
11-15-19 | 76ers -3.5 v. Thunder | 119-127 | Loss | -106 | 8 h 44 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Philadelphia 76ers Earlier this morning the 76ers upgraded Joel Embiid to probable so we'll go with that assumption here. Philly has lost 4 of 6 with both Embiid and Simmons (shoulder) battling injuries. OKC has been one of our best fade teams and have struggled to go 1-3 in their L4. The Thunder do their best work at home but ... if the 76ers are able to get any type of play from Embiid in his return, they win this one by 8-10 points. Lay it with the visitor. |
|||||||
11-15-19 | Louisiana Tech +2.5 v. Marshall | 10-31 | Loss | -106 | 62 h 15 m | Show | |
* Note to subscribers First, let me apologize to all subscribers to my late response here. I originally had liked this game so much that I was going to release it as a conference Game of the Year. I posted the game Monday hoping to keep the +2.5 but filly expected La Tech to go off around pick or even a small favorite. Sure enough, subsequently it was announced that the Bulldogs would have major player suspensions including starting QB J'Mar Smith plus a top wide out and linebacker. The line at this writing is Marshall -6.5 and I will not be playing this game personally. Since losing their opener to Texas, La Tech has won 8 straight and rolled through their CUSA schedule. The Bulldogs have an excellent offensive line and are No.18 (in a good way) in a metric that combines sacks and tackled for loss plays. Defense is the keystone of this year's Thundering Herd outfit but I believe Tech (averaging 42+ ppg. L4) would have still had a lot of success in this game but .... with J'Mar Smith at quarterback. Redshirt freshman Aaron Allen will be under center. This year, he's completed all 9 passes that he's thrown, 8 for 9 with a pick and a touchdown. Can he beat a Marshall team that has won four straight after a 2-3 start and very well coached ??? We'll see. Marshall is just 4-12-1 L17 as a HF. I depend a lot on the eye test and IMO, La Tech is the better team but ... I'll be watching this one preparing for the weekend. We'll make this one right. |

11-15-19 | South Alabama -4.5 v. Chattanooga | 72-90 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the South Alabama Jags The Jags start 5 senior starters and are the most experienced team in the country. They were down 14 in the second half against Auburn on Tuesday and took the lead in the final minute before losing on the final shot. Chattanooga returns 4 starters (No.122) and the teams are very familiar with South Alabama winning by 19 at home last year. In that game, the Mocs were just 1-16 from beyond the arc. USA is on the road but have to think the team will take a lost of positives from the comeback versus Auburn rather be down about the loss. Jags know what they are in for here but still come out with a 10 point win. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Steelers +3 v. Browns | 7-21 | Loss | -120 | 26 h 7 m | Show | |
DMack's NFL Thursday Night Thunder winner is on the Pittsburgh Steelers Cleveland snapped a four-game skid with a life-and-death win over Buffalo in their last. The Browns are have converted just 17 of their L57 3rd downs at home and are 5-11-1 L17 as a home favorite. We also know that Mayfield isn't much for taking care of the football which is not good against the Steelers who are +12 in turnovers (25 takeaways) in their L8 games and rock a current 7-1 run as a road dog. The Steelers road losses are to the 49ers and Patriots and with their defense playing like it's been, even with Mason Rudolph at the controls, the Steelers should be tough to deal with here. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Mavs -7.5 v. Knicks | 103-106 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Dallas Mavericks The Knicks have lost 6 of 7 and strangely enough that win was at Dallas last week. New York gives train wrecks a bad name and the team is now thinking about making HC David Fizdale the fall guy for the team's terrible start. The Mavs saw their 4-0 SU and ATS road mark go down in Boston 72 hours ago. Dallas was down 20, fought back to take the lead and then ran out of gas. This is Kristaps Porzingis' first trip back to New York so thinking mates might just circle the wagons to make it a winning one. Dallas by 14-18. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Buffalo -6 v. Kent State | 27-30 | Loss | -108 | 38 h 17 m | Show | |
DMack's Thursday Night MAC Daddy is on the Buffalo Bulls These are two teams headed in opposite directions. Kent has lost three straight, allowing 103 points, 1521 yards, 817 of those (269 per) on the ground. The Flashes are 3-1 ATS as a home dog this year but versus inflated number early. Buffalo has found its stride after a rough October. The Bulls have won three straight against this kind by a 107-34 agg and a win here will get the Bulls Bowl eligible. Remember, Buffalo led Penn State for three quarters earlier in the year so they can play. The Bulls have urgency here and confidence as they smoked Kent by 48-14 and 27-13 the last two years. Buffalo by two touchdowns. |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Towson +18 v. Florida | 60-66 | Win | 100 | 6 h 7 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Towson Tigers The North Florida Ospreys played the Gators dead even for 35 minutes before falling late. Florida was then promptly waxed at home by Florida State, their sixth straight loss the Seminoles. Florida currently plays the No.10 slowest pace of the 352 Division-I board teams. Towson can play! They return all five starters from last year and have already beaten George Washington by 14 and lost in OT to a 20-win Kent team from last year that returned four starters. Too many points. |
|||||||
11-13-19 | Spurs v. Wolves -2 | 114-129 | Win | 103 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Minnesota T-Wolves The Spurs have lost 4 of 5 and it's looking more and more like even the great Gregg Popovich can't put lipstick on a pig. San Antonio is just not very good and that will be more apparent as the Spurs hit the road after a home game heavy start to the season. Minnesota flew out of the box before getting derailed by the KAT suspension after the fiasco with Embiid. Minnesota appears to be back on track and this number is reflective of San Antonio's dominance in the series of late. This is not the same Spurs team. Minnesota by 10. |
|||||||
11-13-19 | Northern Illinois v. Toledo -2 | 31-28 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 18 m | Show | |
DMack's Weds Night MAC Attack winner is the Toledo Rockets At 2-6, Northern Illinois has pretty much played it's way out of bowl eligibility. The Huskies gave up 327 yards rushing (6.5 per) to Central Michigan in their most recent and face a much tougher overland attack here in Toledo with stud backs Koback and Seymour. For our purposes, it would be nice to see the Rockets rush for 300+ yards and burn plenty of clock as they received horrific QB play from Peters last week and the defense forgot how to tackle in a "shouldn't have been close" win against Kent. Toledo is very tough at home going 12-2 SU L14 at the Glass Bowll (7-2 ATS L) vs. MAC opposition. There is some reports that original Toledo starting QB Mitch Guadagni could play here after missing three games with a shoulder injury. Toledo is right there in a four-team race in the MAC West and have to think we'll get their best tonight in front of a national TV audience. Toledo 41-14. |
|||||||
11-13-19 | Villanova +2 v. Ohio State | 51-76 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Villanova Wildcats Nova is very young with no seniors in their rotation. They return three starters from last year's 26-win team and the underclassmen that they do have got some playing time last year as the Cats took their lumps early and then went through the gauntlet of the every night tough Big East schedule. Ohio State is home and owns a quality win over Cincinnati but in this case, the Buckeyes are simply overmatched. |

11-13-19 | Miami-OH -1.5 v. IUPU Ft Wayne | 84-80 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAB Subscriber Bonus Play on the Miami, Ohio Redhawks IPFW does not play a lot of defense, allowing 82.5 ppg. in two losses in their only two games against D-I opposition. Miami, Oh, returns four starters (three juniors and a senior) and played a very good Wright State team to the finish in their opener priming them to beat a Mastadon team they beat by 6 last year. |

11-12-19 | Oklahoma v. Oregon State +1.5 | 77-69 | Loss | -100 | 22 h 18 m | Show | |
DMack Power Pack Winner is on the Oregon State Beavers Hate to go against a Lon Kruger coached team but Oklahoma doesn't look to be much despite returning three starters off a 20-win team last year. Oregon State starts 3 juniors and 2 seniors and is off an impressive win over quality Iowa State outfit. Pac12 teams are 11-2 ATS to this point which says a lot about the conference's improvement. Beavers win by 8. |
|||||||
11-12-19 | Miami-FL -1 v. UCF | 79-70 | Win | 100 | 20 h 45 m | Show | |
DMack Power Pack Winner is on the Miami, Florida Hurricanes All 5 UCF starters are juniors or seniors but the Knights did lose four starters from last year's club that beat VCU before losing to Duke by 1 in The Dance. UCF trailed Prairie View by 8 in its most recent. The Canes are also a veteran outfit that we used last week in their win over FAU. Taking Louisville to the limit in their opener confirms their quality. |

11-12-19 | Thunder v. Pacers -3 | 85-111 | Win | 100 | 18 h 33 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Indiana Pacers No problem whatsoever fading the 0-3 on the road Thunder who we hold in little regard and figure to be major sellers when the time comes in spring. The Pacers are 4-1 at home and holding things together nicely as they wait for Oladipo to finish rehabbing his knee. Sabonis is a beast in the paint like his old man and gets better every game. Pacers by double-digits+. |

11-12-19 | Northeastern -1.5 v. Massachusetts | 71-80 | Loss | -109 | 18 h 58 m | Show | |
DMack Power Pack Winner is on the Northeastern Huskies UMass is 2-0 against two tomato cans … 6 of the first 8 in the Minuteman rotation are freshman. UMass ranks in the bottom 30 in Division-I for experience. Northeaster generally always puts out a quality product. The Huskies beat Boston U and Harvard by 5 in a Beanpot round-robin. Northeastern extends late to win this one by 10. |

11-12-19 | Eastern Michigan -17 v. Akron | 42-14 | Win | 100 | 16 h 16 m | Show | |
DMack's Tues Night MAC Con Mac Daddy is on the Eastern Michigan Eagles I thought about passing tonight as these mid-week, mid-major games are tough and played by teams as dependable as rain. Akron is 0-9 SU and ATS this year having been outscored 131-9 in their L4 errrrr "efforts". Eastern Mich's optimum role is as dog but the EMUs are 2-3 this year on the road with a win over Illinois. The Eagle beat Akron 27-7 (-11) last year so they can win as a favorite by margin. With Northern Illinois and Kent on deck, getting bowl eligible is VERY doable with a win here. Expect big effort from the visitors. |
|||||||
11-11-19 | Mavs v. Celtics -3.5 | 106-116 | Win | 100 | 7 h 18 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Boston Celtics The Dallas Mavs are 4-0 SU and ATS on the road while the Celtics have won 7 straight going 6-1 ATS so something has to give. Gordon Hayward broke his hand over the weekend and is out but the Celtics are plenty deep enough to compensate for those minutes. Dallas certainly can't keep up this type of road play and some of their inexplicable home losses indicate that the Mavs are a work in progress. This line should be Boston -6 or -7 with or without Hayward. Lay it. |
|||||||
11-11-19 | Kent State +2.5 v. Towson | 84-80 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAA Play of the Day is on the Kent State Golden Flashes Towson returns all five starters from last year's 10-22 team and the Tigers were impressive in beating George Washington in their opener. The Tigers shot just 12 treys and took just 9 FTs so this team plays old school. Kent starts three seniors and a junior, all four started last year on Kent's 22 win team. The Flashes spanked a D-III in their tune-up and should be ready for better here. Kent by 5-8. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Vikings v. Cowboys -3 | 28-24 | Loss | -105 | 78 h 3 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Early Release is on the Dallas Cowboys This "cap" doesn't really require a whole lot between two similar teams with very similar numbers. It basically comes down to the Vikings haven't won these types of key games and Cousins doesn't win these types of game. Cousins was 1-6 against the Pokes when he was a division opponent with Washington. Tonight, he'll be working without a key cog in the Vike offense in Adam Thelen which should allow Dallas to double up on Diggs and Rudolph. Dallas, an automatic home fade during the first part of Garrett's tenure, is on a 6-3-1 run as a home favorite. Dallas scored 31+ in all 5 wins and scored 22-10-24 in their losses. Big game for Dallas here but if the Cowboys get off to a fast start should cruise to an easy double-digit win. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Bucks -7.5 v. Thunder | 121-119 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Milwaukee Bucks The Bucks saw their four-game win streak go down in flames, losing their last at Utah. No shame there and Milwaukee actually had a big double-digit lead for a good part of the game before a late fold …. much like their last loss at Boston back on Oct 30th. OKC is a 30-35 win team at best and that will be proven out in April. The Thunder have won their last three home games, all against fellow bottom feeders or this line would be double-digits. That's the disparity between these two teams. Milwaukee 126-107. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Rams -3.5 v. Steelers | 12-17 | Loss | -110 | 45 h 38 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Early Release is on the Los Angeles Rams Barring a total and complete meltdown by Goff, the Rams are much the best here. In McVay's two years, the Rams 51-17 and 30-16 out of the bye week like they will be here. The Ram offense has worked things out, converting 15 of 29 3rd downs in L2 wins after a brutal three-game run. The Steelers were lucky to beat the Dolphins and were the beneficiaries of an act of God against the Colts. Rams with this by two touchdowns. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Cardinals +5 v. Bucs | 27-30 | Win | 100 | 71 h 42 m | Show | |
DMack Game of the Week winner is on the Arizona Cardinals Bruce Arians face the team he coached for four year's with a Tampa Bay outfit that is 4-15-1 L20 as a home favorite, a defense allowing 33.8 ppg. L4, and a quarterback who is a turnover machine. Arizona has done some good things. The Cards have covered 4 of 5, covered 3 of 4 road games, and are 7-4-1 L12 as a road dog. Kyler Murray has "gotten it" pretty quickly. The Cards have not the ball over AT ALL in their L5 games so they don't hurt themselves. Add to the mix that NFC West non-division road dogs are 7-1 this year and we'll grab five with an Arizona team showing "buy" signs. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Lions v. Bears -1 | 13-20 | Win | 100 | 70 h 28 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Power Pack Release is on the Chicago Bears Both teams have played a number of close games but feel that the homestanding Bears are the right side here. Chicago has lost four straight thanks to an offense that doesn't produce points that often leaves the defense in terrible spots. The Bears did sweep the series last year and just might have the key to stop or slow Stafford down. Nagy and Trubisky are under some massive Windy City heat and will pull out all the stops and open up the game plan after the "O" produced and embarrassing 9 total yards in the first half last week in Philly. |
|||||||
11-10-19 | Falcons v. Saints -13.5 | 26-9 | Loss | -109 | 15 h 17 m | Show | |
DMack NFL Power Pack Release is on the New Orleans Saints Both teams are off a bye week and both teams have had success coming out of a bye but that is where all similarity ends. Atlanta is has lost six straight, 1-5 ATS, and are 0-4 on the road with two of the losses by 16 and 21 points. The Dirty Birds are also just 1-9 L10 as a road dog, 0-3 this year. New Orleans welcomed Drew Brees back with a 373-yard passing day. Can't think of one single reason that Sean Payton would take his foot off the pedal or call off the dogs here. Lay it. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Mavs -4 v. Grizzlies | 138-122 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Dallas Mavs JA Morant appears to be the real deal but at least for this year, he doesn't have much to work with. The Grizz seem to have the same M.O., play a solid first half and get smoked in the second 30 minutes. The Grizz were down two at the half in last but lost by 30. Dallas has won and covered all three of their road games and will be glad to be out of Dallas after losing to the Knick last night. Mavs by double-digits. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Clemson -33 v. NC State | 55-10 | Win | 100 | 15 h 57 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Clemson Tigers North Carolina State just got smoked by Wake Forest and their prospects are not much better this week. The slumping Wolf Pack is just 1-6 ATS L7. Clemson has to be a little salty that they are defending NCAAF champion and undefeated this year and are still on the outside looking in at No.5 in the playoff rankings. As "bad" as Clemson has reportedly played, the Tigers are 7-2 ATS and holding opponents to 165 yards below their season averages. A fast start here is all Clemson needs to get this going. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | LSU +6.5 v. Alabama | 46-41 | Win | 100 | 50 h 30 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the LSU Tigers Bama has won the L7 of the series and Tua appears to be good to go after a high ankle sprain. That was 7 straight Tide wins, the L3 by 21-14-14 but this is a very different LSU. The Tigers are averaging 49 ppg. and are 6-1 ATS the last two years as home dogs. Coach Ed has taken his lumps in the past against Saban but with Joe Burrow and a stable of NFL caliber wide receivers, Ogeron and LSU have the fire power to stop the bleeding at 7 games. LSU 30-27. |

11-09-19 | Louisville +7 v. Miami-FL | 27-52 | Loss | -120 | 49 h 25 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAF Underdog Shocker is on the Louisville Cardinals The Canes are off two huge program changing wins including a dominating 27-10 over rival Florida State in most recent. That said, the Canes are just 1-4 as chalk this year and you can't hep but like what's going on in Louisville where former App State HC Satterfield is 18-6-1 ATS in his L25 and Louisville has two quarterbacks that hurt you in the air or running the ball. Louisville wins straight up if they can avoid turnovers. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Wake Forest -2 v. Virginia Tech | 17-36 | Loss | -105 | 49 h 22 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons VTech is 4-1 SU and ATS L5 in the series but the two have not met since 2011. Prefer a very balanced edition of the Demon Deacons who have head success against all comers. The vaunted Hokie defenses and special teams of the Beamer years is long gone. Wake picks up it's third win this year as a straight ass dogs. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Stanford -3 v. Colorado | 13-16 | Loss | -110 | 49 h 4 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Stanford Cardinals Colorado's season is circling the drain fast thanks to having allowed all 9 of their opponents 30+ points and 425+ yards of offense. The Tree is finally getting healthy and with Costello back calling the shots at QB, Stanford should hit it's point for yards and points as well. Stanford's current 10-3-1 road fave mark locked in with the 1-5 L6 Buff home dog run seals the deal. |
|||||||
11-09-19 | Maryland v. Ohio State -42 | 14-73 | Win | 100 | 45 h 7 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner is on the Ohio State Buckeyes You will very rarely see games like this and Clemson on the DMack card but in this case, won't look a gift horse in the mouth. Ohio State was a surprise No.1 when they announced the playoff rankings. The Buckeyes will be very cognizant of the need for style points and also of the fact that Maryland dropped 51 on OSU in an OT loss last year. This year's turtle got off to a good start but in the L3 games, can only show a garbage time touchdown for their efforts. Ohio State 56-0. |
|||||||
11-08-19 | Washington v. Oregon State +10.5 | 19-7 | Loss | -112 | 35 h 59 m | Show | |
DMack's Friday Pac12 Super Play is on the Oregon State Beavers Forget about the recent prior history between these two, this is a very different Oregon State team. The Beaver defense is a work in progress but the offense is top quality Pac12 with Luton calling the shots (19 TDs, 1 Int) and two stud backs, each averaging about six yards per carry. The Huskies are off two tough home losses and UWub's season has degenerated from a Pac12 championship and trip to the playoff to a Las Vegas Bowl game against Boise. Add to the mix the Huskies 2-6-1 runs as a conference road favorite (with 5 straight up losses) and we have a strong case to take the red hot home dog getting double-digits. |
|||||||
11-08-19 | Grizzlies v. Magic -6.5 | 86-118 | Win | 100 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is Orlando Magic We're getting lots of line value here because the Magic are off to such a hideous start. Orlando has lost four straight, all on the road but return to the Magic Kingdom here well rested and 1-1 as a home favorite. The Grizz are 0-2 SU and ATS in two road games with losses by 19 and 29. The home team has won 8 of 9 in the series and Memphis has only cover one of it's L5 visits to the O-Rena. Lay it. |
|||||||
11-08-19 | Florida Atlantic v. Miami-FL -11 | 60-74 | Win | 100 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Miami Hurricanes The Canes dropped their opener to Louisville, no shame there. Miami starts four juniors and a senior so this is a team that has seen and done it all including beating FAU 75-55 (led by 32 late) last year. The Owls opened with a win over a D-II school called Flagler that somehow managed to shoot 68% inside the arc against them and still won by eleven. FAU starts four sophs and plays a lot of players for short spurts in a go-go scheme. Miami has no excuse not to beat this CUSA outfit by 20. |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Seattle University v. Washington State -2.5 | 54-85 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Play of the Day is on the Washington State Cougars Nothing bad to say about Seattle. The Redhawks return four from an 18-15 team that beat Wazzou last year. Seattle is expected to contend for WAC title but remember that the WAC is arguably the weakest of ANY Div-I conference in the country. Washington State has a new coach that went 164-122 in stints at Columbia and San Francisco … not much on face but two tough tough places to win so Smith can coach. He's brought six new players with him to go with three Coog returning starters. Washington State needs to get off to a good start and a solid win over a solid Seattle outfit would do just that. |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Thunder v. Spurs -4.5 | 112-121 | Win | 100 | 8 h 27 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the San Antonio Spurs The Spurs have lost 3 of 4 but a closer look shows losses to the Clippers and Laker and an odd one game overnight to much improved Atlanta. The home side has won the last seven games in the series and the Thunder are 0-5 ATS in their L5 visits to Alamo City. OKC has won B2B games but on the road at Spurs is a far cry from home wins over the Pelicans and struggling Magic. Pop will have things figured out tonight … Lay it. |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Chargers v. Raiders | 24-26 | Loss | -114 | 58 h 54 m | Show | |
DMack's NFL Thursday Night Thunder winner is on the Chargers The Chargers have won two straight and were dominating in their win over the Packers in a game that was nowhere near as close as the final score. This is the last game in Oakland for these old AFL West rival. The Bolts have won and covered the last four series meetings winning by a 76-26 aggregate. This game should be considerably higher scoring are the Raiders have allowed 24+ to 7 straight opponents. IMO, Oakland has gotten this far on smoke and mirrors. The Chargers seemingly responded to their new OC and we can expect Carr to be running for his life while under pressure from Bosa and Ingram. Bolts have done their best work on the road (13-4-1 ATS L18) and should win by double-digits here. |
|||||||
11-07-19 | Temple -1.5 v. South Florida | 17-7 | Win | 100 | 65 h 31 m | Show | |
DMack's Temple/South Florida AAC Super Play winner is the Temple Owls Not real concerned about Temple's last two performances. The Owls just finished a three-game "gauntlet where they beat Memphis before getting smoked by at the time undefeated SMU and offensive juggernaut Central Florida. Temple is a solid, balanced, well coached team that generally outperforms their own kind and will be in revenge mode here. The Owls have had a chance to regroup and get healthy off a bye and have not lost three straight since 2014. South Florida is as counterfeit as they come and just 2-5 L7 as a home dog. Temple convincingly … 30-13. |
|||||||
11-06-19 | Miami-OH v. Ohio -6.5 | 24-21 | Loss | -114 | 42 h 17 m | Show | |
DMack's Weds MAC Conference MACK DADDY is on the Ohio Bobcats Miami Oh beat Ohio 30-28 last year, a costly loss for the Bobcats. The Red Hawks are 1-4 L5 as a road favorite and even off last year's win, Miami is just 2-11 L13 in the series. Ohio is 3-1 in the MAC this year with the loss to a desperate Northern Illinois. With home field, revenge, and the lead in the Eastern Division on the line ... expecting the best effort of the year for Frank Solich's crew and an easy Bobcat rocking chair win. |

11-05-19 | Montana State v. Utah State -21.5 | 73-81 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 40 m | Show | |
DMack's NCAAB Bonus Subscriber Best Bet is on the Utah State Aggies Utah State returns four starters off last year's 28-win team that was arguably better than Nevada last year in the Mountain West. They enter the season ranked Top 20 and their first tune up should be a good one as Montana has nice PG in Frey but little in the way of other pieces to help out. The Bobcats will be a work in progress. Lay it. |

11-05-19 | Denver v. Colorado State -13 | 63-74 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
Mack Attack NCAAB Opening Night Slam Dunk is on the Colorado State Rams The Rams showed signs at the end of last year and figure to be much improved this year. They face a Denver team that was 3-13 in the Summit last year and lost four starters off that team. Colorado State figures to dispatch the Pioneers with little problem. |

DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Indiana Pacers Both teams have split their first six games with the Pacers the hot hand, winning their L3 after an 0-3 start. This has been a home team dominated series with the host winning 8 of the L10 but ... new season with new rosters Indiana has the best of that in this virtual pick 'em. Sabonis is emerging as a major force as a scorer and on the boards. Take Indiana. |

11-05-19 | Kent State v. Toledo -7 | 33-35 | Loss | -106 | 17 h 17 m | Show | |
Mack Attack Tuesday MAC Conference Super Play winner is on the Toledo Rockets At 3-5, Kent is still somewhat of a fraud as the Flashes have really only played one good game all season, that a 62-20 win over Bowling Green. Strangely, Bowling Green beat Toledo 20-7 in a game where the Rockets were a complete no show. Toledo is much the better team despite the result versus this particular common opponent. Toledo is home, owns a win over BYU on this field, and has won the L4 in the series while going 3-1 against the points. Expect an easy double-digit win here. |

11-04-19 | Blazers -9.5 v. Warriors | 118-127 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 1 m | Show | |
DMack's NBA Play of the Day is on the Portland Trailblazers Don't mind laying this big road number with the Blazers who are big, physical, and can play. Portland is 3-1 (4-0 ATS) on the road and face a depleted Golden State team that will now even be without Draymond for several days with a hand ailment. Golden State is 0-4 at home and giving up better than 120 per game. In it's current state the Warriors just don't have the fire-power to even hang. Portland 124-106. |

11-03-19 | Patriots -3 v. Ravens | 20-37 | Loss | -130 | 134 h 18 m | Show | |
DMack early release NFL winner on the New England Patriots I'm a firm believer in the old boxing adage that you can only beat who they put in front of you so I don't put much credence in the "Haters" that say the Pats have played nobody. They haven't but the scariest part of the whole thing is that Brady has been pedestrian at best and hasn't shown an inkling of "Goat" status in 2019. Yeah, Harbaugh is good off a bye but the Belechick's domination over rook and 2nd year QB's is legendary and you KNOW the hoodie will have something dialed up for Lamar Jackson. Pats 10-3 L13 in the series and 3-1 L4 visits here. In the end, another routine Patriot win. |

11-03-19 | Packers -3 v. Chargers | 11-26 | Loss | -120 | 130 h 25 m | Show | |
DMack early release NFL winner on the Green Bay Packers Green Bay is rolling behind MVP front-runner Aaron Rodgers. The Pack has won four straight averaging 32.5 ppg. and converting 14 of their L23 3rd down attempts. I'm disconnect the Chargers from life support and calling time of death despite getting win over the Bears last week in a game they had no right winning and figure on 26,999 of the 27,000 fans in Carson today being Green Bay fans. Packers 35-17. |

11-03-19 | Browns v. Broncos +4.5 | 19-24 | Win | 100 | 42 h 38 m | Show | |
DMack Sunday NFL Power Pack winner is on the Denver Broncos For a team that has lost three straight while allowing more than 30-points per, the Browns continue to get lots and lots of love. Sure the Broncos are 2-6 and going with two QBs that have never taken an NFL snap but switch from Flacco can only be good. Ex-Arkansas QB Brandon Allen threw the ball around with success for three years at Arkansas and the Broncs still rock a prideful defense. Denver is 1-3 at Mile High with two losses by two points. Denver CAN win this game straight up. |
|||||||
11-03-19 | Titans v. Panthers -3 | 20-30 | Win | 100 | 40 h 44 m | Show | |
DMack Sunday NFL Power Pack winner is on the Carolina Panthers "Sharp" money reputedly coming in on the Titans here because of spark from Tanneyhill and several random techs but fact remains that Tennessee is an 11-21 ticket burner in it's L33 as a road dog and they'll be facing a VERY salty Carolina bunch that had a 50-burger dropped on them last week by the 49ers. Carolina had won four straight prior. Rivera let McCaffrey do his thing and Panther defense shut done Henry to get Mojo back. |

11-03-19 | Bears v. Eagles -4 | 14-22 | Win | 100 | 40 h 41 m | Show | |
DMack Sunday NFL Power Pack winner is on the Philadelphia Eagles The Eagles got off to a slow start last week in Buffalo but played a near perfect second half the blow out the Bills. The Eagles ran for 218 yards in the game but most importantly are getting healthy on both sides of the ball and have benefitted from excellent play from Wentz. The Bears have lost three straight with their vaunted Monsters allowing a tic less than 28-points-per. Chicago (3-4) is 0-4 when the defense is unable to hold an opponent to less than 15 points … and then there is Trubisky. Philly by double digits. |

11-03-19 | Colts +1 v. Steelers | 24-26 | Loss | -112 | 38 h 3 m | Show | |
DMack's NFL Game of the Week winner is on the Indianapolis Colts Can't think of one reason that I would want the Steelers here. Pitt was life and death to beat the Dolphins in last, Rudolph was mostly ineffective in his return back out the concussion protocol, Connor is hurt, and it's a short work week. The Colts have won three straight, 5 of 6, and are 3-0 ATS on the road this year. Indy is 5-0 when they allow less than 30 points and I doubt the Steelers would score 30 here in a double-header. For the techies … AFC South non-division road teams are 9-2 ATS this year, NFC North non-division home teams are 0-11 ATS. The wrong team is favored here. Indy 27-13. |

11-03-19 | Texans v. Jaguars +2 | 26-3 | Loss | -115 | 36 h 17 m | Show | |
DMack's Texans/Jaguars London Calling winner is on the Jacksonville Jaguars Strangely enough, this division series has been swept the last eight years. Houston won 13-12 when Jags went for two in Week II but Jacksonville has been showing "Buy" signs with Minchew who is now 4-2 at the controls. The Texan defense is in shambles where as the Jags have allowed 17 or less in their L3 … and the dog is 6-2 L8 in series. Jacksonville owner Khan has Euro connections and win would be sweet for him. Jags oblige … call it 20-13. |

11-02-19 | Northwestern v. Indiana -11.5 | 3-34 | Win | 100 | 98 h 14 m | Show | |
DMack early release NCAAF winner on the Indiana Hoosiers The surprising Hoosiers are already bowl eligible but won't rest on their laurels when with 8 wins they can get something pretty decent. Indiana can play offense with just about anyone and the Hoosier defense has to deal with a Northwestern offense that is averaging 7.6 points and 243 yards per game in Big 10 play. This could be a prime spot for an upset alert but with Northwestern winning 9 of the L10 in the series, Indy HC Allen won't let that happen. |

11-02-19 | Texas State v. UL-Lafayette -22 | 3-31 | Win | 100 | 96 h 13 m | Show | |
DMack early release NCAAF winner on UL-Lafayette This figures to be a complete mismatch from coin toss to final whistle. Texas State has one cover this year but most importantly for out purposes, the Wildcats are soft on run defense, No.128 in the FBS they'll face a Cajun outfit that has averaged 308 yards overland in it's L6 games (No.3). Texas State will have to move the chains fairly consistently to just have 20 minutes TOP. Lay it. |

11-02-19 | Utah v. Washington +3.5 | 33-28 | Loss | -120 | 34 h 21 m | Show | |
DMack's Pac12 Game of the Year winner is on the Washington Huskies Since losing to USC, Utah has won four straight while allowing 20 total points. They get a very different animal here in Washington which has had its moments good and bad this year. The Huskies beat Utah twice last year, allowing the Utes just 10 points. Just two return from that defense but UWub offense compensates with added fire power. Washington off a bye and Chris Peterson has been money in this spot. How good ??? With extra time, 18-0 SU and 11-7 ATS and we are getting more than a field goal. |

11-02-19 | Arkansas State -1.5 v. UL-Monroe | 48-41 | Win | 100 | 95 h 52 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner on the Arkansas State Red Wolves Winner take all in the Sunbelt West with the loser out. Arkansas State has owned Monroe, winning and covering the L9 in the series. Red Wolves feature a dynamic duo in QB Hatcher (300+, 12-5 L4 games) and RB Murray (278 rushing yards L2) that should shred ULL stop unit at will. |

11-02-19 | Troy +1 v. Coastal Carolina | 35-36 | Push | 0 | 103 h 14 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner on the Troy Trojans Coastal starts a sophomore QB making his third start and the Chants are 0-6 ATS at home vs. FBS teams and are 2-8-1 ATS in SBC play since joining the Sunbelt last year. Troy QB Barker has a big arm and throws for 333 per in Sunbelt play. Troy has won prior two meeting by an average of 24 ppg. and strong Trojan run defense should lock up Coastal team that runs better than 60% of the time. |

11-02-19 | Akron v. Bowling Green -6 | 6-35 | Win | 100 | 103 h 37 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Power Pack winner on the Bowling Green Falcons The Zips are winless, coverless, on a current 3-14 run against the points and rock the No.129 ranked offense in the FBS. Bowling Green is 9-1 L10 in the series but lost in this matchup last year. The B.G.'s get top QB back here and have shown signs of life at times. Asking the Falcons to win by a touchdown and they have no excuses. |

11-02-19 | Michigan -18.5 v. Maryland | 38-7 | Win | 100 | 100 h 21 m | Show | |
DMack Bully Beat Down winner is on the Michigan Wolverines The Terps made big news in the first two weeks of the season by crushing an FCS team and then dropping 63 on Syracuse. The truth is that the Terps win total for the year was 3.5 in most spots and they've proven to be a case of "They are what we thought they were" by continuously getting mauled in Big 10 play. Michigan has covered four of five and has had to trouble with The Turtle of late, winning the L4 meetings by an average of 33. Wolverine triggerman Patterson showcased here against Maryland's fishnet No.116 pass defense. Michigan 54-13. |

11-02-19 | Liberty -23 v. UMass | 63-21 | Win | 100 | 10 h 47 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Subscriber Bous Play winner on the Liberty Flames No …. I haven't lost my mind laying 3+ touchdowns with a road fave that lost to Rutgers in it's last game. This game has become a must win for Liberty which still needs two FBS wins for bowl eligibility. A revenge game for a UMass 3X OT win last year. UMass is just 1-7 SU and ATS with win over winless Akron and catching 16+ points in seven of those losses. |

11-02-19 | Old Dominion v. Florida International -17.5 | 17-24 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 45 m | Show | |
DMack NCAAF Subscriber Bous Play winner on the FIU Panthers Old Dom is offensively offensive, No.128 in scoring offense, No.130 in total offense. Look for the Monarchs to serve as a whipping boy for an FIU team that should be mad after getting smoked by Middle Tennessee last week. Panthers still have an outside shot at a bowl and should fire here. |

11-01-19 | Navy -26.5 v. Connecticut | 56-10 | Win | 100 | 85 h 7 m | Show | |
DMack's Friday Night AAC Super Play is on the Navy Midshipmen If the 40 years my data base goes back, this is the most points Navy has ever laid as a road favorite. The 6-1 Middies have won four straight but most importantly have rushed for a whopping 1207 yards (402.3 per) over its L3 games and figures to ground and pound UConn into submission. In fact, the Huskies are 0-4 in conference play, allowing 177 points yet are fat and happy after smoking hapless UMass last week. Coach Ken is a gentleman but may not have a lot of choice regarding the score here. Navy 56-10. |

10-31-19 | 49ers -8.5 v. Cardinals | 28-25 | Loss | -110 | 62 h 17 m | Show | |
Mack Attack Thursday Night Thunder is on the San Francisco 49ers If you haven't seen the 49ers yet, you're in for a treat. IMO, this is light years the best team in the NFL and will be proven out here. Firstly, the 49ers are 4-0 on the road with wins of 14-24-13-9 points and the 9 was at Washington in a driving monsoon. They have five wins of 13+ and have held five opponents to less than 100 yards passing. The Cards have no running attack and will need to start Kenyon Drake (acquired Monday) and hope. That leaves Kyler Murray to run for his life against Nick Bosa and company. The Cards have done some nice things this year and have done well in the series but not buying here. San Francisco 38-13. |

10-31-19 | Georgia Southern v. Appalachian State -16 | 24-21 | Loss | -110 | 61 h 21 m | Show | |
DMack's Sunbelt Conference Game of the Month is on the Appalachian State Mountaineers App State is very quietly 7-0 with a win at North Carolina and have just crushed what was thought to be three of the better teams in the Sunbelt by a 99-17 aggregate. In those games, the Mounties rushed for 200+ yards and the defense has been pretty much impregnable. Georgia Southern has been decent but goes on the road here to face a different level. The Eagles lost their last to visits to Boone by 21 and 18 and it figure that it will be at least that here. Lay it. |

10-30-19 | Blazers -1 v. Thunder | 102-99 | Win | 100 | 2 h 18 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber Bonus Play is in the Portland Trailblazers Bullet Analysis: When the smoke clears, Portland is going to be a 50+ win team that is going to be a real tough out in the playoffs. I rarely bet futures if at all but do have a moderate UNDER ticket on OKC. This is not a good team and will probably trade the few pieces that they do have and start a complete and total rebuild. |

10-30-19 | Bucks -3 v. Celtics | 105-116 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 7 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber Bonus Play is in the Milwaukee Bucks Bullet Analysis: Tons of line value here as trend players and "sharps" play an angle involving teams that knocked the other out of the playoffs the prior year in the teams first meeting. Not applicable here as Bucks will salty off bad loss at Miami and Boston not clicking under Kemba. Bucks get their "Freak" on. |

10-30-19 | Wolves +7.5 v. 76ers | 95-117 | Loss | -109 | 1 h 27 m | Show | |
DMack Subscriber Bonus Play is in the Minnesota T-Wolves Bullet Analysis: The could be the year of the KAT … Karl-Anthony Towns. The Wolves are off to a fast start and this could be the year that Towns becomes a super start of Anthony Davis type proportions. Minnesota also has built a nice supporting cast of complimentary players that will defer to him. Philly is what Philly is but too many points here. |
