03-19-21 | Winthrop +6.5 v. Villanova | Top | 63-73 | Loss | -108 | 37 h 14 m | Show |
NCAA First Round action here has Winthrop taking on Villanova. Winthrop didn't have to win a conference tournament, rather winning their regular season crown is what got them into the NCAA tourney. Winthrop was 24-1 S/U and 14-11 ATS on the season. They had little trouble in the Big South conference, lsoing just to UNC Asheville back on Jan 29th, 55-57 as their lone setback. Villanova was a victim of the Georgetown freight train that bullied through the Big East. The Cats lost their last two games and three of their last four. In addition they are covered just one of those last four. Winthrop getting around 6 points here on Friday. I believe Winthrop has a very good chance to win this game straight-up. Play Winthrop. |

The Syracuse Orange of the ACC takes on the Mountain West Conference Champion, San Diego State. Syracuse beat NC State in the ACC tournament, 89-68 before losing to Virginia, 69-72. The Orange did cover their last four games. San Diego State finished 22-4 on the season with a 14-12 spread record. The Aztecs had a scare by Wyoming in the first round, then beat Nevada 77-70 and finally Utah State for the Championship, 68-57. They only covered one of their final five games. I like the Big East conference teams over this Mountain West Conference. I'll take the points and look for Syracuse to win outright. Play Syracuse. |

03-19-21 | Rutgers v. Clemson +1.5 | 60-56 | Loss | -104 | 37 h 38 m | Show | |

03-19-21 | Nets -10.5 v. Magic | 113-121 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 5 m | Show | |
Brooklyn Nets are having a fine season, which seems to have turned around after picking up James Harden from Houston. They are now 28-13 S/U and 22-19 ATS on the season. The Nets have won six straight and 14 of their last 15 games. The Nets have also been good for bettors on the road, covering their last eight away games. They are also 12-3 ATS in their last 15 overall games. Unfortunately, the Orlando Magic are not having a good year at just 13-27 on the season. The Magic have lost nine straight games, though they are 4-5 ATS during that span. They lost to the Nets back on Feb 25th, 92-129 at Brooklyn. The Nets are just 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 home games against a team with a winning road record. Big number to lay on the road, but the Nets can score big and should have no trouble covering this number today. Play Brooklyn Nets. |

03-19-21 | Liberty +7.5 v. Oklahoma State | 60-69 | Loss | -105 | 34 h 54 m | Show | |
Atlantic Sun Conference Tourney Champ Liberty gets to take on the Big 12's Oklahoma State. Liberty finished 20-5 S/U and 15-8 ATS on the season. They won their last 11 games and covered six of their last eight games. Liberty beat North Alabama in the Championship game, 79-75, but failed to cover the 13.5 point favorite line. Oklahoma State finished at 20-8 S/U and 16-10 ATS on the season. The Cowboys lost in the tourney to Texas, 86-91 after beating West Virginia and Baylor. Liberty has looked fairly impressive this year and is worth a dog shot in the first round getting 7 or 7.5 points. Play Liberty. |

03-19-21 | Oral Roberts +16.5 v. Ohio State | 75-72 | Win | 100 | 30 h 18 m | Show | |
Oral Roberts survived the Summit League conference tournament by winning three straight games to claim the crown and the automatic NCAA bid. Oral Roberts got hot at the end of the season, winning five straight games and going 4-1 ATS. They finished just 13-10 S/U and 14-9 ATS on the season. Ohio State came up a bit short in the Big 10 Championship game, losing in OT to Illinois, 88-91. They did cover three of the four games in the Big 10 tourney. Despite getting in, they are just 3-4 S/U and ATS in their last seven games. Ohio State laying 16.5 points here today and for me that's just too many by a team that is 3-4 in their last seven games. Play Oral Roberts. |
|||||||
03-19-21 | Utah State v. Texas Tech -4 | 53-65 | Win | 100 | 29 h 3 m | Show | |
Utah State advanced to the NCAA from the Mountain West conference despite losing in the Championship game to San Diego State, 57-68. The Aggies finished 19-8 S/U and 16-11 ATS on the season. They did win six of their last seven games though they covered just three of their last nine. Texas Tech comes out of the Big 12 conference with a 17-10 S/U and 10-16 ATS records. The Raiders lost to Texas in the conference tourney, 66-67. They lost their last two games and are 3-2 S/U and ATS in their last five games. Good matchup here but I like the strength of the Big 12 conference here over the Mountain West. Play Texas Tech. |

The nation's second highest teams should be able to stay close to any team, especially get 8 1/2 point as they are today. I'll take a shot with Colgate in this one. Play Colgate. |

03-18-21 | Drake -2 v. Wichita State | 53-52 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 33 m | Show | |
NCAA First Round action here on Thursday has Drake taking on Wichita State. Drake had a fine season at 24-4 S/U and 20-7 ATS. However, the Bulldogs finished winning just one of their last three games. They lost in the Missouri Valley tournament to Loyola Chicago, 65-75 as a 7-point dog. Wichita State was 14-5 S/U and 9-9 ATS on the season. The Shockers had their 8-game win streak snapped in their conference tournament by Cincinnati, 59-60. The Shockers have covered just three of their last 10 games. Both teams looking for that play-in spot here today. I'll take Drake in this one. |

|||||||
03-17-21 | Sharks v. Golden Knights -1.5 | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 13 m | Show | |
Vegas has owned the San Jose Sharks, not only winning all three games this year but going 9-4 in the last 13 games in Vegas. Vegas is the top team in the West thanks in big part to 36-year old Marc Andre Fluery. Fluery is having a great season and has the Knights allowing the fewest goals in the league this season. Add to that that the line of Mark Stone and Max Paciorty have been amazing this season and the Knights just have way too much for this overmatched Sharks team. Can't lay the money line, but I'll lay the puck line here tonight with the Knights. |
|||||||

NIT first round action has Toledo taking on Richmond here tonight. Richmond could be shorthanded here tonight. One of their best players, guard Blake Francis is questionable with a hip injury.

They are also 5-2 in their last seven games. Richmond finished the season just 12-8 S/U and 9-11 ATS. They lost their last three games of the season both S/U and ATS.

Round of 16 action here in the UEFA Champions League. The Italian team, Lazio, is coming off a 1-4 home loss in their first leg. Bayern looks to have this Champions League wrapped-up, going 3-0 in their matches in a very dominatnt way. They have beaten Kohn 5-1, Borussio Dortmund 4-2 and Werder Bremen, 3-1. Lazio has lost its last two games to Bologna, 2-0 and Juventus 1-3. The team is in 7th place. Bayern looks to use Lazio as just another of its fodder here en route to their Champions League title. Take Bayern Munich on the Goal Line -1 1/2 goals. |

03-14-21 | Ohio State v. Illinois -5.5 | 88-91 | Loss | -112 | 20 h 39 m | Show | |
Ohio State advanced to today's Big 10 Championship game agaisnt Illinois, but barely. The Buckeyes faced a Michigan team that was without one of their star players in Forward Livers. The Buckeyes led by 16 points with just four minutes to play but then were outscored 2-17. A turnover with 28 seconds left in the game led to a Michigan chance to win, but they couldn't connect as time ran out. Illinois had little problems advancing with a win over Iowa, 82-71. Illinois led by eight at half and increaded that lead over the 2nd half as they cruised to the win. For me, I believe Ohio State escaped the loss on Saturday against a Michigan team without one of their star players. Illinois should have little trouble here today winning the Big 10 Tournament Championship. Play Illinois. |
|||||||
03-14-21 | Murray State -4.5 v. Tennessee Tech | 36-31 | Win | 100 | 3 h 47 m | Show | |
Murray State makes the short trek today over the board to take on Tennessee Tech. The Racers have started off to a 2-0 record in the FCS football. They look to return to the FCS playoffs for the first time since 2002. The defense has been outstanding, holding UT Martin to just 10 points in their opening game and beating SE Missouri, 24-21 in game number two. Tennessee Tech has been out to a slow start offensively which has resulted in a 1-1 record. QB Bailey Fisher was highly touted before the season but has been dissapoiting with just 137 total passing yards in two games. Tech has already played two very good defenses and not faired all that well. They do so again here today. Murray State's defense should do well against a struggling Tech offense here today. Play Murray State. |

03-13-21 | Cal-Irvine +2.5 v. UC-Santa Barbara | 63-79 | Loss | -107 | 11 h 24 m | Show | |

They opened with a win over Long Beach on Thursday, 95-87 and then beat UC Davis last night, 71-55. They lost both games at UC Irvine way back in December, both S/U and ATS. I'm going to take Irvine again here tonight as they seem to have this team's number. Play UC Irvine. |

03-13-21 | Ohio +2.5 v. Buffalo | 84-69 | Win | 100 | 7 h 24 m | Show | |
MAC Conference Championship Game here this evening has Ohio U taking on Buffalo. Ohio advanced to this point with wins over Kent, 85-63 and last night over Toledo, 87-80. They covered both games and have now covered eight of their last nine games. Buffalo won its 7th straight game with their semifinal victory over Akron last night, 81-74. However, they needed OT to get it. It was their third cover in a row. With games being played back-to-back and three in a row, those OT minutes can take added tolls from a team. I'm taking Ohio in this one tonight. Play OHIO U. |
|||||||
03-13-21 | Raptors v. Hornets -2 | 104-114 | Win | 100 | 7 h 60 m | Show | |
Toronto Raptors finished the 1st half of the season by losing their last three games and five of their last six. This is a team without a home since they can't play in Canada, their home games have to be in Florida. Tonight they are in Charlotte to face the Hornets. The Hornets opened the 2nd half of the season with a win over Detroit, 105-102. It was the team's 2nd win in a row and third in their last four games. Charlotte has covered the last four in this series with the Raptors and is 11-5 ATS the last 16 meetings in Charlotte. Play Charlotte. |

03-13-21 | Georgetown +8.5 v. Creighton | Top | 73-48 | Win | 100 | 6 h 29 m | Show |
Georgetown is the Cinderella team of the Big East Conference Tourney. The Hoyas finished the regular season just 8-13 S/U but have won three straight tourney games over Marquette, Villanova and last night over Seton Hall. They have covered three straight games and six of their last eight games. Their only chance to punch their ticket to the NCAA tournament and likely kill their opponents, is a win tonight over Creighton. The Blue Jays opened with a win over Butler, 87-56, before having to battle all night last night and take a close one vs U Conn, 59-56. I am taking the big points tonight with the Hoyas and hope that Creighton doesn't give much thought to them. Play Georgetown. |

Mountain West Championship game from Las Vegas, NV has Utah State taking on San Diego State. No surprise here as the two best in the conference play for the right to advance to the NCAA tourney. Utah State Aggies had wins on Thursday over UNLV, 74-53 and then last night over Colorado State, 62-50. Their defense has been very good, allowing fewer than 60-points in each of their last four games. San Diego State Aztecs opened with a narrow win over Wyoming, 69-66 as a 15-point favorite and then failed to cover again last night over Nevada, 77-70 as a 8-point favorite. The Aztecs have no failed to cover four straight games. Looks to be a good defensive battle tonight, but I'll take the points. Play Utah State. |

USC had to go to Overtime last night to get past Utah, 91-85 as a 7.5 point favorite. The Trojans have won three straight, but covered just one of their last five games. Great matchup here late on Friday, but with USC having to go the extra time and then come back tonight, I'll take Colorado here tonight. |

Mountain West Semifinal action here on Friday night from Las Vegas has Nevada taking on San Diego State. Nevada finished the season 15-9 S/U and 18-6 ATS. They got the upset win last night over Boise State, 89-82, as a 4.5-point dog. It was the team's sixth win in their last eight games and ninth cover in the last eight games.

They had a tough time last night with Wyoming, barely getting by the Cowboys 69-66 as a 15-point favorite. It was the team's 12th win in a row. However, they have failed to cover the last three games. They beat Nevada twice this year, 65-60 and 69-67, failing to cover both games as double digit chalks. I like the points again here tonight. Play Nevada. |

I'll take the Huskies here today. Play U Conn. |

Duke looked like the Duke of old yesterday as they demolished the Boston College Eagles, 86-51 in the opening round of the ACC tournament. Duke has had a rough year at just 12-11 S/U and 8-15 ATS. The Blue Devils snapped a three-game losing streak with that win, both S/U and ATS. Though Tuesday's game went Under, no thanks to BC, the Devils have still seen six of their last seven go over and nine of their last 11. Louisville plays their first tourney game today. They were 12-6 S/U and 9-9 ATS on the regular season. The Cardinals lost their last game at home to Virginia, 58-68. Louisville took both games from Duke this year. They won 70-65 at home as a 2-point favorite and then won at Duke, 80-73 in OT as a 5.5-point dog at the end of February. This will only be Louisville's 2nd game in March so could be some rust here for the Cardinal. I don't believe the Cardinals can beat Duke three times in one season. I'll lay the small number with the Blue Devils. Play Duke. |

Big West Conference first round here tonight from Las Vegas has Cal Poly SLO taking on Cal State Fullerton. Cal Poly finished the regular season on a nine-game losing streak. They did better vs the spread, going 5-1 ATS their last six. Cal Fullerton has lost two straight and four of their last five games. My own line on this game has Fullerton around a 8 to 8 1/2 point favorite. They have twice as many wins (6) and while both teams are not very good - Fullerton is the team to advance and cover in this spot. Play Cal State Fullerton. |

Horizon league championship game here today has Oakland taking on Cleveland State for the right to advance to the NCAA tournament. The loser, likely done for the year or relegated to a minor tournament. Oakland advanced to this spot with a win over Northern Kentucky last night, 69-58 as a 1-point dog. It was the team's fourth win in their last five games both S/U and ATS. Cleveland State won last night over Wisconsin Milwaukee, 71-65, just covering the 6-point favorite line. It was the team's third win in a row. Cleveland State has won both previous meetings this year with Oakland on their home court, 80-72 and 90-78, covering both games. Both games they were a favorite of fewer then 2-points. Yet today on a neutral court they are 2 1/2 point favorites. Tough to beat a team three times in one season. I'll take the small dog here with Oakland. |

Colonial Conference Championship game here today at Harrisonburg, VA has Elon and Drexel both looking to punch their ticket to the NCAA tournament. Loser may be done for the year as both teams fair to midland at best. Elon has advanced with wins over Towson, James Madison and yesterday over Hofstra, 76-58. The latter two both as dogs. They have extended their ATS win streak to seven games now. The Drexel Dragons have advanced with wins over College of Charleston and yesterday over Northeastern, 74-67. Drexel laying 4.5 points here today and for me that's too many points to a team that can win this game outright. Play ELON. |

03-07-21 | Texas Tech +8 v. Baylor | 73-88 | Loss | -107 | 5 h 4 m | Show | |
Texas Tech has made a quiet impression this year to the tune of a 17-8 record a reason for them to be invited to the NCAA tournament. The Red Raiders have won three straight games both S/U and ATS. The Raiders played Baylor back on Jan 16th and lost at home 60-68, failing to cover the 4.5 point dog spread. Baylor is 20-1 and really has little motivation to win this game. The Bears will be in the NCAA tournament. Their recent form shows they are doing little more than winning straight up. They had their only loss of the season on Feb 27 at Kansas, 58-71. They have covered just one of their last six games. The Bears laying around 8-points here today. I look for Tech to give them all they can handle as the game means more to the visitor in this one. Play Texas Tech. |

The Bulldogs are coming off a win over Missouri State, 71-69, just covering the 1-point spread. They lost the previous game at Bradley, 61-67 as a 8.5 point favorite. The Bulldogs will have to go the rest of the way without one of their best players in ShanQuan Hemphill who is out with a foot injury. That has impacted this team in recent weeks. Loyola Chicago Ramblers are 23-4 S/U and 15-9-1 ATS. The Ramblers have won five straight and 15 of their last 16 games. In their two games at Drake, they split, winning the first 81-54 and losing the second, 50-51. Drake will need to keep this score low to have a shot of winning. I like Loyola much more and Drake can take consolation that they will make the NCAA's anyways. Play Loyola Chicago. |

03-07-21 | Wisconsin v. Iowa -6.5 | 73-77 | Loss | -115 | 2 h 34 m | Show | |
Big 10 action here on Sunday has Wisconsin at Iowa. Wisconsin needs every win it can get with a 16-10 overall record. They have lost two straight games and four of their last five. Not exactly the form you want to be heading into March. Iowa has been in good form, with an overall record of 19-7. The Hawkeyes have won two straight games and six of their last seven.

03-06-21 | Iowa State v. Kansas State -4.5 | 56-61 | Win | 100 | 5 h 48 m | Show | |
Iowa State is hoping for a fast end to this horrible season. The Cyclones are have just two wins against 20 losses. You have to go all the way to before Christmas for the last time this team won a game. They are also just 2-6 ATS in their last eight games. Kansas State also looking forward to rebuilding next year as they sit 7-19 on the season. They have won two of their last three games both S/U and ATS. Don't expect a lot of points in this game as neither team scores much. But the line is low enough for me to be on the host here today. Play Kansas State. |

The LSU Tigers are 15-8 S/U and 10-13 ATS on the season. The Tigers won't likely be in the NCAA tourney, but should make one of the lesser tournaments. The Tigers snapped a two-game losing streak last time out with a win over Vanderbilt, 83-68. The Missouri Tigers are 15-7 and pretty much in the same boat as LSU. They have lost four of their last six games both S/U and ATS. Both teams struggling a bit, so I'll be on the dog here today. Play LSU. |

The Indiana Hoosiers having a very off season at just 12-13 on the year. They can climb back to the .500 mark today with a win. However, that doesn't look good at a descent Purdue team here today and the fact that they have lost four straight games both S/U and ATS. Purdue hoping for a NCAA bid with their 17-8 record, but they need every win at this point. The Boilermakers have won their last four games both S/U and ATS. Two teams going in opposite directions here today. Play Purdue. |

They have won five of their last six and covered five in a row. One issue though will be the availability of Guard Cade Cunningham, who is questionable today for the Cowboys with a ankle injury. West Virginia is 18-7 S/U and 13-12 ATS on the season. The Mountaineers are coming off a win over TCU, 76-67, but failed to cover the 13-point line. They are now 4-1 ATS in their last five games and 6-2 ATS in their last eight games. I'll lay the points with West Virginia here today. |

They just had their two-game set with North Alabama, winning both 69-60 and 86-60, covering both games. North Alabama is 12-10 S/U and 7-11 ATS on the season. The Lions have won two straight games after a six game losing streak. They are just 2-7 ATS on the road this season. Hard to beat a team three times in a season, but I believe Florida Gulf Coast is up to it. Take Florida Gulf Coast. |

Still, they are just 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games. The Knicks are coming off a loss last Tuesday at San Antonio, 93-119. That snapped a three game win and cover streak for the Knicks. Still, they are 7-3 S/U and ATS in their last 10 games. The Knicks have covered 23 of the last 32 games in this series in New York. I'll be on the Knicks here tonight. Play New York. |

The LA Lakers are 24-12 and just behind Pacific division leading Phoenix. Life has gotten rough for the Lakers since mid-February. The Lakers lost four straight games both S/U and ATS starting on Feb 18th. Then they turned around for a few games, beating Portland and Golden State. Last game they hot beat at home by Phoenix, 104-114 as a 2-point dog. Now they travel to Sacramento to face the 13-21 Kings. They Kings have lost 10 of their last 11 games and covered just one of those 11. They are coming off a home loss to Charlotte, 126-127 as a 3.5 point favorite. The Kings covered the last time these teams met back on August 13th, winning the game 126-122 at LA. The main reason I will be on the Kings tonight is because both LeBron James and Anthony Davis will both be out for the Lakers. That's 48 ppg the Lakers have to replace. James will be rested tonight while Davis is out indefinitely with a Achilles issue. All teams get up to beat the defending NBA champions and that's why I'll be on the Kings here tonight. Play Sacramento. |

This Bulldog team has been very good defensively, holding six of their last eight opponents to 61 points or fewer. Texas A&M also looks to stay above .500 tonight as they sit 8-7 on the season with a 5-10 ATS spread record. The Aggies are 0-3 both S/U and ATS in the role of a home dog this season. State will look for some payback here tonight and I expect that to happen. Play Mississippi State. |

The loss was also their first after winning four straight. Utah State improved to 15-7 with that win. The win also snapped a two game losing streak, both at Boise State.

The South Dakota Coyotes where having a decent season at 13-9 S/U and 9-11-1 ATS. They have won two straight games, the last over today's North Dakota State team, 80-71, covering the 1.5 point spread. However, they could be without their best player here today in AJ Plitzuweit who was injured and likely out the rest of the season in the N.Dakota State win. The Coyotes are only one win away from the Summit league title and No 1 seed in their conference tournament. But the loss of Plitzuweit to a knee injury has really put a damper on their season. AJ Plitzuweit average 19 points per game this year and was injured late in their game. This is a huge loss for the Coyotes, one I am not sure they can rebound from. Perfect situation for North Dakota State to get the win here today. |

Lately it's been the former, with three straight wins and covers to improve to 13-9 on the season. The Spartans beat three of the best in the Big 10, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio State. I'll take a chance that the Dr Jekyl and not the Mr Hyde shows up here today. Play Michigan State. |

02-27-21 | Missouri State -5 v. Evansville | Top | 63-72 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
The Missouri State Bears improved to 15-5 last night with a win over this same Evansville team. The Bears shot nearly 70% from the field en route to their 90-81 win. They also hit 68% from 3-point arc. The defense could do better though, allowing 51% from the field and 47.6% from 3-point arc to Evansville. Still, it was the team's seventh straight win and they are 6-0-1 ATS during that streak. Evansville lost its seven in a row and is 2-4-1 during that span.

Missouri State lost three games in the fall of 2020 before packing it in. They got beat bad by a top ranked Oklahama team, 0-48 and lost twice to Central Arkansas. Those games will give the team something to build on here in the FBC football conferences. Missouri State has a decent QB in Jaden Johnson and he has very good running back behind him in Kevon Latulas. The running game will be the big question for Western Illinois. They need more experience on the offensive line to opening up the running game here today. Western Illinois is the team I will be on Saturday, despite laying 5 to 6 points on the road. Should be a good game, but Missouri State will cover this game. Play Missouri State. |

While they have little chance of winning this game S/U, they can cover this 20+ point spread. The Baylor Bears are 17-0 S/U and 13-4 ATS on the season. They are 5-3 ATS at home. The one issue that comes into play in this game is that Baylor won't be much interested in this contest. They have a big game coming up against No 10 West Virginia on Thursday. For me, this could be one of those "look ahead" games where the Bears will sit or rest some stars with their eyes on Thursday's game. I'm going to take the big points here and see if Baylor even wants to play this game. Play Iowa State. |

The Lakers are 22-9 S/U but have struggled of late, losing their last two games at home to Miami and Brooklyn. Lebron James and Anthony Davis have both been battling injuries. James will be fine tonight, but Davis is expected to miss with an Achilles issue. Davis is likely a big reason why they have struggled of late. The Lakers have not been good at covering spreads.
