Play on: (908) 10* San Francisco (Moore) over Pittsburgh (Vogelsong) @ 10:15 Eastern The Giants are coming off a bullpen collapse in the 9th inning against the Orioles, and now look to rebound against the Pirates who caused the Dodgers all kind of problems this past weekend. Pirates use former Giants RHP 39-year old Vogelsong (1-2, 2.67) who was on the DL for three months but, has looked solid lately in a six inning stint against San Diego surrendering only 3 hits with no earned runs. San Francisco uses lefty Moore again after a decent 6 innings giving back just 3 hits with 2 earned run on the road against Miami. He has 1-1 record 1.93 ERA L3 times out. Despite the Pirates having the recent series edge, we believe the Giants are in a solid “win” spot tonight. First off, they show 5-0 off a loss, and 37-18 against losing road units. The Pirates have had some success against lefties, but they are 0-5 with Vogelsong in a game #1 set and 1-8 versus “winning” teams. In his career the righty has gone 0-1 with a 5+ ERA in three career starts facing the Giants lineup. We look for San Francisco to bounce from the Baltimore series with a huge win tonight. Good Luck!

081116 Play on: (909) 10* Houston (Fister only) over Minnesota (Berrios only) @ 1:10 Eastern MLB GAME OF THE WEEK Brad Diamond Sports Houston despite the road hurts is a much better entry than the inconsistent Twins, even on the road. First off, RHP Fister (10-7, 3.47) is coming in off a nice 6 innings of work against Texas surrendering just one earned run. Berrios (2-2, 8.31) was hit around by TB for four earned runs in 5 innings of labor. More important with Fister, the Astros are an almost perfect 9-1 off a team loss. Houston with Fister is red hot 7-1 during road sets. With Minnesota 9-25 against RHP and 1-4 in the first game of a DH, we’re backing the visitor Houston this afternoon. Good Luck! If we are successful this afternoon, check back 5:30 Eastern for an update.

10* (957) Pittsburgh over Milwaukee LHP Liriano of the Pirates is the key for the win this afternoon. The struggling hurler might be in for a bit of good luck. First, an emotional player in Lucroy is gone, and now Braun is banged up. This just maybe the emotional edge the hurler needs in a tough road test vs. a unit winning three straight. Liriano leads the league in walk, but did throw a quality start in on 07/21 vs. Milwaukee after going 6 2/3 innings allowing just 4 hits and 2 earned runs, with 13 SOs. He did fall short recently at home against Seattle as he could only manage 38 strikes. His problem is trying to cut the corners with breaking stuff. The Pirates are 4-1 on Sunday's with umpire Winters calling balls and strikes. Supporting we find the Pirates 8-1 with Liriano on Sunday and 6-1 game #3 of a series. Remember, the Brewers are 0-11 in game #3 of a series and 0-6 on Sunday.

Play on: 10* (904) ATLANTA/Phillies UNDER 7-1/2 @ 7:10 Eastern After going 1-2 yesterday we look to bounce back with our NL East Total of the Year. The suffering Phillies have averaged three runs or less the last ten of fifteen encounters. In addition, they have supported offensive frustrations stranding at least 9 (LOB) over the last week and half. Now they must face talented RHP Teheran of Atlanta who has been sidelined recently with a minor injury. For sure, the Braves don’t back the hurler scoring only 2.5 runs in his 2016 outings. RHP Hellickson opposes today with a decent 7-7 record and a 3.65 ERA, not bad coming out of a struggling offensive unit. The hurler has been showing some improvement of late with 1.89 ERA in his most recent mound appearances. In this last outing against Atlanta the hurler was superlative. Remember, this series has been a consistent UNDER play 11-4-1 L16 times out. Combing starts for Hellickson and Teheran, the total has shot UNDER 5-of-6. With the data and the situation, we go UNDER as our NL East Total of the Year!

10* LA (Maeda) over Arizona (Ray) @ 4:10 Eastern Can't help marking this as a TOP PLAY with the Dodgers off a 2-1 loss yesterday to Arizona. After all, the series has LA in command with a 40-16 edge. On the hill this afternoon RHP Maeda looks to lead the Dodgers back to the winning column with his majestic 5-1 road mark this season supported by a nice 2.62 ERA. He shows off 7 innings against the Padres allowing just 1 earned run. He is 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA vs. Arizona. Arizona use lefty Ray (4-8, 4.81) who has been rocked at home this season with a 2-4 mark and a 5.92 ERA. Over his last three outings the hurler has struggled with a 5+ ERA and a 0-2 mark. The Snakes show 3-13 L16 times out and 1-6 in a game #3 set with Ray. Los Angeles comes PERFECT 9-0 after allowing 2 or less runs in their last game.

10* Golden State/Cleveland UNDER the total On a red hot total run in the NBA, while looking to build on our 18-8 streak. Here for Golden State will not have a key player on the floor with Bogut being done for the season. The series has shot UNDER 3-of-4 overall. Golden State surprisingly has gone UNDER 5-1-1 L7 and 5-0 OVER after their last opponent came in with 100+ points. Cleveland is 4-0 UNDER on Thursday's and 5-1 UNDER after a win of 10+ points. Finally, the trend that points us clearly in the direction of the UNDER side is the Warriors super 9-1-1 UNDER stat after being defeated by double digits. Overall, fell this will be the most "defensive" matchup inside the series...UNDER.

And, Smyly shows with a 1-4 mark with a 7.18 ERA allowing 14 home runs over the last two months. Tampa Bay is 1-5 with Smyly in game #2 of a series. Seattle uses Karns (5-2, 4.09) who is coming off 4-1/3 innings of work allowing 2 hits and 1 run. The Mariners are 5-1 with the righty in road sets and 5-1 with 5 days of rest. Seattle comes back tonight 6-1 L7 versus Tampa Bay and should score large here.

The 69-27 Cavaliers have a major advantage of rest and play the Warriors who went through a grueling series versus Oklahoma City. Golden State shows an amazing 85-14 SU with a dominating 25-5 record in games versus the Eastern Conference. The major key for the opposing King James and company is playing the game one possession at a time, trying to limit mistakes eliminating break points for the Warriors. Golden State comes in #1 in points off turnovers. At home the Warriors 48-3, but 1-5 ATS L6 vs. the Eastern Conference. The Cavs play 29-19 on the road this season, however, show with the more effective defense, while being rested. The road unit in the series is 4-1 ATS. With the Cavaliers 16-5 ATS vs. .600+ units, the play is Cleveland.

And when you consider 72-16 SA is just 2-11 at OKC you might be a little ill when you read this, consider I'm going the other way. However, SAN is 17-6 ATS off a SU loss, while OKC is 0-5 ATS in Friday editions. More importantly, SA has to be really frustrated by the recent encounters with the Thunder in this building, and believe put up sensational shooting numbers considering same...SAN ANTONIO.

Here LHP Chen of Miami has a zero ERA vs Philly in a QS. Currently, he his limiting LH to a .211 BA which should subdue Herrera and Howard tonight. Granted youngster RHP Velasquez (4-1, 1.44) has looked impeccable early, but Miami 3-0 L3 game #1 outings, while Philly is 7-18 in that venue. Plus Philadelphia comes -27 in run differential (-3 Miami), facing the Marlins who just held Arizona to 7 runs in three games including a shutout. Miami is on a monster 10-1, 3-0 at home. MIAMI!

This situation from the runs line perspective tags Eovaldi of NY in this core mound appearance in Boston vs. franchise type lefty Price. No doubt Price has pitched well vs. NYY going 3-0, 1.71 ERA to boot. But, Eovaldi is off a monster effort vs. Texas and seems to be a ripe situation in a prime time event (ESPN) catching much juice on the Strip. Granted the Yankees bats have been mediocre with a .223 average this season, scoring just 9 runs in their 1-5 run coming in to action Sunday night. Still, the value is with New York who has been stressed lately because of some difficult losses. Feel we'll see a 2-1 type game and the RL winner with New York.

10* LA DODGERS (Maeda) over San Francisco @ 8:05 Eastern The 7-5 Dodgers and Giants do battle tonight on the national ESPN stage. The Giants come in hitting .257 on the year, with a team ERA of 4.50. Los Angeles shows with a .268 BA and a team ERA 3.28. The Giants lead the series this season 4-2 scoring a 33-27 run advantage, and winning last night 4-3. SOS is about even with the Dodgers facing also rans San Diego and Arizona so far, the Giants contesting Colorado and Milwaukee. So, in some respect it’s a little difficult garnering a vivid picture of the strength and weakness matchups in the current set. No matter, still favor RHP Maeda (LA) the Japan import who has pitching experience across the water in this spot. He has put together two flawless starts allowing no runs, while carrying a 1-0 record. San Francisco brings veteran Smardzija (1-0, 3.38) who will be making his third start of the season. Last time out he handled Colorado gathering 8 innings of work with 2 earned runs. Against the Dodgers in his career, the big righty is 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA, but he has not faced them since 2013. We note, San Francisco is a horrid 3-13 vs. >.600 units. And, 4-17 on the road vs. a winning unit. We close with the Dodgers a consistent 70-33 at home, and 7-2 off a loss…LOS ANGELES!

NHL PLAYOFF GAME OF THE WEEK 10* CHICAGO (55) over St. Louis We have the ULTIMATE VALUE...the Stanley Cup Champions as an underdog! Granted they are on the road in game #1 of the playoffs vs. the recycled Blues. Statistically, the Blues brought a better record into the playoffs last season, but the Blackhawks went on to become CHAMPS! Ditto here, as far their records (107 vs. 103) and now the Blues play with "nothing" to lose. Down the stretch the Blues went 13-4 with a solid 7-1 record against playoff units, taking out the Blackhawks twice. Consequently, they opened -1.15-1.20 favorite on the Strip. Chicago making lineup adjustments late in the season, finished on a negative 8-10 run, 2-8 versus playoff types. Remember, though, the STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS were under sold last season going into the post season and have now won 8-of-11 playoff series. Granted the home team in this series is 28-12, but STL is 2-8 in the Quarterfinal round of the playoffs. And, Chicago 8-2 in the Quarterfinal round. Also, the Blackhawks are a PERFECT 4-0 after the current opponent allowed 5 or more goals in their last game. No matter, the MAJOR EDGE in this encounter is DOUBLE REVENGE. GO CHAMPS!

10* PORTLAND/Minnesota UNDER 214 Minny comes in off back-to-back wins, including defeating "Golden State" 105-97 earlier this week. I'm mentioning this because as in the Warriors tilt the T-Wolves can't expect to "run" with Portland and win. The last series contest was 120-115. With Minnesota looking for their first three game winning streak since last November, we're projecting a resilient "defensive" effort. So, my reasoning points to going UNDER with the T-Wolves who are 5-1 to that side after holding the prior opponent to under 100 points in their last game. And, Minnesota is 4-1 UNDER L5 times out. The series is UNDER 4-0-1 in Portland.

BRAD DIAMOND SPORTS TOP PLAY ALERT REVENGE GAME OF THE MONTH 10* LA DODGERS (KERSHAW ONLY) over San Francisco @ 4:05 Eastern Cashed our Rivalry Game of the Month the other day with the Giants and Peavy over the Dodgers. Now we switch gears with lefty Kershaw in the box who has a career 9-3 mark @ AT&T Park with a sizzling 1.16 ERA. Kershaw threw seven straight scoreless innings against San Diego on Monday, while striking out nine. The Giants have won back-to-back games after cashing a 3-2 effort last night and super effort by RHP Cain. Historically, the Giants have had the edge in this building from the series standpoint, and when Bumgarner and Kershaw met last season the Giants won 3-1. Still, must note lefty Bumgarner suffered from location issues in game #1 allowing 5 walks and 2 Home Runs (5.40 ERA). And, the rebounding Dodgers are 6-0 after scoring two or less runs in their last game. Los Angeles is a PERFECT 4-0 in the last four road tests with Kershaw, while the Giants show 0-5 after allowing 2 or less runs in their last game…DODGERS BOUNCE BACK!

040716 Brad Diamond MLB Rivalry Game of the Month April….BDS 10* SF (PEAVY) over LA Check out this super angle in the Giants and Dodgers series later this afternoon out on the west coast when the Dodgers use Jake Peavy in a monster early test. One key injury has San Francisco playing without super catcher Posey. But, the Dodgers too may be a missing a few key players with rest being the issue, not injuries as in Posey’s case. Jake Peavy has made 29 starts lifetime versus the Dodgers going a majestic 14-3 with a sweet 2.38 ERA. His best outing of camp came on April 2nd when his sinker and slider were working effectively. Here the veteran will have the benefit of an overcast day and high humidity with winds up to 20 miles per hour. The Dodgers use classy lefty Wood, but they are 2-5 in his last seven road starts, despite the SF 6-2 mark last eight vs. LA. With Peavy a PERFECT 8-0 in home starts and the Giants 25-12 at home overall the call is SAN FRANCISCO!

03/21/16 10* (619) George Washington+ over Monmouth @ 7:00 Eastern NIT GAME OF THE YEAR Looking for GW to continue rolling in the NIT versus the tenacious Hawks. Granted the kids from New Jersey have outstanding guards, but when their shots don’t fall the Colonial big men will clean up. Also, guard Deion Jones is out for Monmouth, he scored 15 points in the last game that he play. That’s a tough situation, so now this will put more pressure on the perimeter game for the Hawks! Over the last seven games, GW has an average net point differential of +4.0, while the Hawks enlist +9.7 points. But, in that set for the Colonials was a very difficult 4 point loss to NCAA entrant VCU. SOS of schedule is about even with MU playing a more challenging non-conference slate. George Washington (4 NCAA Bids) comes out of the A-10 an overall much stronger conference than the MAAC (2 NCAA Bids). With the Colonials catching pointspread value and Monmouth 1-4 ATS at home versus a team with a plus road mark...G. WASHINGTON!

10* INDIANA +2 over Toronto No doubt the so-so but, winning record (36-31) this season for the Pacers has been depreciated somewhat by their inability to handle success. In fact, after a SU win they are just 3-8-1 ATS. This does not build well for Indiana since talented Toronto hits the hardwood tonight. 45-21 is a clear indication the Raptors are for real. And, when you add in their stellar 8-1 ATS series mark, 7-1 ATS at the Pacers it's clear we surely have the wrong team chalked...INDIANA!

10* Yale +5-1/2 (721) over Baylor 2:45 Eastern Getting a little misty here, but I have a poem title from one of the great poets of our time, Dylan Marlais Thomas..."Don't go gentle into that good night." Happy St. Patty's Day everyone! To generate the green today we are coming out with CBB GAME OF THE MONTH on the Yale (22-6) Bulldogs. Yale has covered 6 straight non-conference games coming into Thursday action. No doubt facing a Big-12 entity is difficult, no less away from the east coast and Connecticut. But, playing in the West Region could really help Yale a team who's style and dedication just might influence Baylor into key floor mistakes. Yale finished the season on a super 7-1 run, but again that was the Ivies. They lost senior Montague last month who was expelled. That could be an issue, as Baylor is extremely athletic. The Bears super players, including Sherrod have made the unit a pleasure to watch down in Waco finishing 22-11 on the season, being unable though to handle Kansas. This is a huge game for the Bears who were taken out quickly last season by GEORGIA STATE in the first round! Yale too, has something to prove not being in the Big Dance going all the way back to 1962. They are 5-of-7 ATS against the Big-12, and 33-15-4 ATS off a SU win. WIRE JOB!

VCU more talented and deeper, but has not faced a determined unit as such, therefore expect a little over confidence considering they won 85-82 at Hawk Hill this season.

This is a major factor dictating their so-so record SU and ATS (18-16). Dallas without the overall talent level of Indiana is 32-30 SU coming in with a decent ATS record of 20-14 ATS mark. Indiana is 3-0 SU and ATS L3 vs. Dallas and 9-2 ATS in the series, 6-1 ATS at this site. Still, must show great respect being at home and playing in day action off 4 straight losses. Plus, this a major double-digit revenge situation after being mauled by Indiana in the their last meeting. Indiana comes with a horrid 6-15-1 ATS record on Saturday, 2-7-1 ATS off a SU win. Remember, the Pacers are coming off a 99-91 win over San Antonio, so expect some over confidence early in this encounter. With Dallas being the underdog now (Noon Eastern) believe we have the underdog of the day. Good Luck.

Granted 21-6 Eli apparently bringing the "better" team to the floor vs. 21-9 Columbia. In fact, Yale has a 12-3 ATS record against Columbia which adds to the public support. However, the Eli played a much easier tilt yesterday, which gives the Tigers an edge in the "tension" factor. So, we look for a slower paced game today as Columbia tries to reduce the ball positions of hard firing Yale. Remember, technically the Eli have not fared well vs. winning units going 1-3-1 ATS, so this is a distinctive change element helping Columbia. The Tigers have covered 4-of-5 in conference which adds a little to our support. More importantly, I admire the "character" of Columbia and their overall tenacity...UPSET ALERT!

Pennsylvania (10-12) won their fourth straight Ivy League game last night and returns home +9 vs. the talented Eli. Yale has won 7 straight in the series, 6-1 ATS. In their last meeting Yale (13-½) won 81-58. Over their last ten games they have captured 9, going 6-2 ATS. However, they have lost a key performer in Montage (9.6) who is out indefinitely. The Quakers have looked improved lately coming with a +4.0 average margin lately, not as definitive as Yale, but a great improvement. With this game being played at the famous Penn Palestra you can bet the crowd will be loud supporting the Quakers defense, especially around the arc where the Eli is 41% the last five games. Realize this is a bounce back for Yale, but the Quakers improvement and crowd should bring this under the current number. Remember too, Yale is just 6-6 SU away, while the Quakers are 8-4 at home. Penn has covered at a 3-1-1 clip in conference, while being 5-2 ATS at home.

They seemed to have been discarded most the season by the lines makers who have now reacted appropriately. All the techs in this encounter seem to favor the Rams, and they do possess floor edges. However, in the SU battle last time at UM, the Rams won in OT. Believe me, there egregious calls in the game both down the stretch in regulation and in OT, not favoring UM. Remember UM had won four straight in the series before the 2016 loss, while Fordham has been the underdog in the last three games (series). TAKE ALL THE POINTS, and remember be patient and try to buy a 1/2-point, if possible. Good Luck...THIS IS THE FIRST PART OF OUR TRIPLE CROWN PACKAGE FOR WEDNESDAY.

Plus they have Varnado (14.3) hobbling a key performer and their #2 rebounder. Injuries as such in a tight losing set is critical in what happens, cause and effect, on the floor. Further, Georgia Southern (10-12) plays with a stronger SOS facing stronger defensive units overall this season. Troy is a horrible 7-21-2 ATS at home last 30 times out, while the underdog in the series is a PERFECT 4-0 ATS. Lastly, with GS on a solid 11-4 ATS streak on Thursday and 7-0 ATS vs. the Sun Belt, we are on the visitor.

10* DENVER +6..nothing lower over Carolina We project this battle to be one of the great ones in the storied history of the Super Bowl. If we look back to last week, it was noted how Carolina dominated Arizona who had key injuries on the defensive side of the ball, missing the "Honey Badger" above all and his incredible "field efficiency" numbers which are off the charts. Also, QB Palmer still showed signs of the finger injury, no matter what the observers thought. I have been doing this 40-years and see the Cardinals play all the time, Palmer was no exacting and the stats prove that out. Granted the Panthers defense had a say in his effectiveness, but early touch in the 2nd half could have changed the "MO" in the game...and we liked Carolina. Here the Panthers are being solid hard everywhere as the line opened truly at -3-1/2 last Sunday, and is now at the aforementioned incredible transition. Granted Carolina is the superior physical team, and Cam is the stellar player on the field. However, we can't discount the gritty ride Denver has had all season, and their sensational defense against QB Brady and the Pats. The Broncos defense during the challenging regular season held the opponents to 18.2 points per game, and 283 an outing. They held offenses to a third down conversion ratio of 35% which is more effective than Carolina. This is critical because of Newton's running ability...If Denver is successful in this aspect of the game...they win SU. As far as the Denver offense and Manning looking at a slower paced approach (TOP) and with a much different game plan than what was shown against NE...This is really the issue as HC Kubiak will not be out coached in this situation. Remember Denver coming into the season had the #10 SOS vs. Carolina who showed #27. Granted against the spread in the playoffs the Panthers have a winning mark, but this is CLASSIC UNDERDOG set for this handicapper, as the majority of the nation is taking the Denver abilities for granted which accrues point spread value. The Broncos are 4-1 ATS vs. winning units, and no matter, I believe they will cash here in a VERY CLOSE GAME!

Here, the Tigers have been gunning Yale all summer and will need to continue playing turnover free hoops to win this SU. If Yale has an off night shooting, the Tigers rebounding should bring this game to the wire. Remember, the Eli again last night failed on the foul stripe hitting 51.5%, if the inaccuracy continues tonight the Tigers should win this system play SU.

012416 NFL CHAMPIONSHIP TOTAL OF THE WEEK 10* (313/314) ARIZONA/CAROLINA OVER the total of 47 @ 6:40 Eastern This “should” be one of the best offensive battles in recent playoff memory. The Carolina group has garnered 15 wins vs. the Cardinals who show with 13 successes. It is the most wins logged on a combined basis by two teams in the era of the Super Bowl structure. Further, they are the first two post season types that have each averaged over 30 points a game. Our only minor concern is QB Palmer of Arizona who has had problems recently. But, the Carolina defense maybe a help as they have given up 22, 28 and 24 points in the second half of games over the last six weeks. Remember, Arizona is 5-1 OVER in the Playoffs. On the Carolina side of the ball, the Panthers one of a kind QB Cam Newtown has thrown 27 touchdowns and just 1 INT over the last 9 games, he is virtually unstoppable. And, NFL chalks laying under 10 with a SU record like Carolina have shot OVER in 8 straight playoff games (If you recall, we had 10* CAROLINA OVER as our NFL PLAYOFF TOTAL OF THE YEAR). In addition, Carolina comes 12-3 OVER vs. the NFC and 4-0 OVER in January.

10* SEATTLE/Carolina OVER the total NFL PLAYOFF TOTAL OF THE YEAR...BDS Not often we go into two quality defenses looking to go OVER, while expecting a monster result. But, we must recall these two have recently "scored" the last two meetings 50 & 48 to be exact. With that in mind believe we have Seattle traveling for the 2nd week from the west coast to play an early game which just might bring problems for their defense in the 2nd half. The Panthers have gone OVER 10/15 this season. Realize Seattle has gone UNDER 5 straight when the total hits 40+ but, again this situation brings two explosive quarterbacks who bring it all on each down. Also, the series has gone UNDER 5 straight, but somewhat misleading considering the aforementioned numbers. Carolina has shot OVER 11-3 vs. the NFC, and 6-0-1 OVER after gaining 350+ yards in their last game. Seattle shows 5-1 OVER L6 playoff games. Look for a surprising HIGH scoring game with weather being co-operative. Good Luck! Going into the second game Saturday, we are 12-1 in the NFL with our 5* New England winning.

Now they are laying a hefty price with the public assuming a rebound is in order with Washington State the lesser unit from the strength standpoint. ASU does possess the better defense and rebounding edges and protects the ball more effectively than the visitor. The Sun Devils go 9 deep with 4 DD scorers. WSU has an edge in scoring and does have a deeper bench. Granted the home teams has been cashing inside the series 15-3 ATS coming into action, while WSU has suffered on the road 9-21-4 ATS. Also, Washington 74-71 over Arizona State was the last meeting in the rivalry.

To add a little “outside edge” to the battle, the weather projection is estimated to be around zero degrees. Already, I am thinking about former legendary HC Bud Grant’s approach to this type scenario, but then again the Vikings have that already with their running game and the ability to play one down at a time. Surely, we are aware of the 38-7 beating the Seahawks put on the Vikings in December on this same field…So, we have same season REVENGE, on the same field in less than perfect weather conditions. Remember Seattle jumped out early in that encounter and stifled the Vikings run game, which led to throwing the ball in obvious down and distance situations. This gave the #1 rushing defense even more of situational edge. Seattle (10-6, 8-7-1 ATS) is on a solid 6-1 SU run coming in with QB Wilson (24/1) in solid form. In that run the Seahawks out pointed the opposition 224-98. They have been playing on a high for sure. RB Lynch (abdominal) will be starting for the first time since November. Minnesota (11-5, 13-3 ATS) has had some inconsistency but, they were hurt with RB Peterson’s injury. He is expected to be 100%. The Vikings (144.9) start with the #4 running game in the NFL. Defensively, they have held opponents to 18.9 points per game, and are one of the better run defenses in the NFL. When you consider they are at home Sunday, the unit should be more than ready to cut off the big plays by QB Wilson. Last year in the NFL playoffs, the underdog went 6-4 ATS. Granted Seattle comes 5-2 ATS in the month of January, but Minny has been money in the bank at home 10-3 ATS. And, at home they show a PERFECT 5-0 ATS versus winning road units. With REVENGE, the weather, home field and the EMOTIONAL EDGE…Take the points!

10* Ole Miss -7, not higher over Oklahoma State Don't mean to raddle anyone, but this will be a close call from the spread standpoint. The Pokes are 4-1 SU and 3-2 ATS in their last 5 bowl games dating back to 2010 all under the leadership of HC Mike Gundy. As a 6-1/2 underdog they defeated Washington last year SU 30-22 in the Cactus Bowl..So, this is a step-up in class via the Sugar Bowl which is all SEC country. Ole Miss recent taste of bowl action in the last three years..2-1 SU/ATS. The 42-3 loss to TCU in Peach Bowl has the Hugh Freeze group sky high! Only negative is their very best defensive player is out of the game as you know per the news releases recently. The Rebs started strong 4-0 SU beating Alabama, but then lost on the road at Florida, Memphis(?), and Arkansas...Easily, the unit has an issue with focus. But, that will NOT be the case today knowing the opposing talent, the conference and the chance to pick up a DD win (9-3) season is a glaring issue. The Rebs finished nicely beating and covering vs. LSU and Mississippi State...two hated rivals. SEC BOWL FAVS show 4-0 ATS going into Saturday. Oklahoma State (10-2) only lost two games, both at the end of the season to Baylor and Oklahoma. The Pokes lead with their passing game QB Rudolph as the unit ended #10 in the NCAA throwing the pigskin. The schools last played in 2010...Ole Miss 21-10. For the Rebs to cover they will need their rushing attack to control the tempo and field position, and of course, the legs of QB Kelly will be needed. OKS is 2-7 ATS off a SU loss, 4-10 ATS after surrendering 450+ yards and 3-7 ATS off ATS loss. The Rebs are 1-5 ATS off a SU win, but you can discount that item, considering the TCU debacle last season. Ole Miss comes in 24-8 ATS non-conference, 3-0-1 ATS (January), 6-1-1 ATS at neutral sites and 4-1 ATS in BOWL games. This should be a high scoring, as I remember the opening total was 67. In closing, history has shown that teams relate more closely to current reality and for the Pokes losing BB conference game...ouch! So, we are riding OLE MISS!

10* Georgia State+ over San Jose State @ 7:00 Eastern CURE BOWL...BDS The first ever Cure Bowl has San Jose State (5-7) traveling a great distance. SJU did defeat NMU last time out, but vs. other FBS units...a horrid 9-28 SU in the past. GSU a starter program going back to 2010 finished the season on a 4-0 SU run. And, they were very kind to their backers going 8-3-1 ATS. Fundamentally, they average 6.3 yards per play. Granted the Spartans come out of the MWC a more highly rated conference, but they did not fair well this season and seem to give up at the end of games...I doubt very much they are interested going to Florida around the holidays, despite the warm weather. The EMOTIONAL EDGE here is all GEORGIA STATE...Look for an outright upset!

121315 10* Pittsburgh +3 (105), nothing less….over Cincinnati @ 1:00 Eastern Spent many years doing weekend radio in the “Steel City” accruing friends and contacts! All I can tell you is, they are buzzing about Big Ben and the Steelers. Granted it plays right into the Las Vegas line movement that has the number down to +2-1/2 at the Westgate on the Strip. We specified you must have +3 to qualify this situation as a GOY! Granted the Bengals have had a solid season but, the last two weeks Pittsburgh is playing Super Bowl caliber football. The Bengals show 10-2 SU in the division, the Steelers suffering without Big Ben 7-5 SU. Visiting Pittsburgh is not awed by the site or Cincinnati winning and covering the last three in the series, covering 4-of-5 on the road. In addition, historically Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin has been money in the bank as a road underdog against a unit off a SU/ATS win. Last week the Bengals chewed up the Browns 37-3, so we expect somewhat of a slow start for Cincy here in the first quarter…Remember Pittsburgh leads the series 55-35. Critical is the Steelers secondary which has been hurt by the big play this season, so look for these two, despite weather, to trade points all day….We close with the Bengals 1-7 ATS in week #14, with Pittsburgh 13-2-1 ATS in Cincinnati…Now you can understand the heavy money overload the last two days…Good Luck, and thank you!
