02-04-22 | Bulls v. Pacers +3 | Top | 122-115 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 11 m | Show |
Chicago at Indiana 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Bulls- The 'line' on this encounter seems a bit shallow as the Eastern Conference leaders are very short favorite against a bottom feeder like the Pacers. This may well be because the Bulls Zach LaVine who was questionable last night but played 42 minutes and most likely will be rested in the second of back-to-back games. Indiana has lost seven straight and 12 of their last 13 contests. Chicago is 0-3-1 ATS in their last four road games and are 5-12 in their last 17 games at Indiana. Take the PACERS! |

02-04-22 | Cavs +4.5 v. Hornets | 102-101 | Win | 101 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Charlotte 7:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Hornets- Although the Cavaliers are without Collin Sexton and now Darius Garland and have lost two of their last three games they were 11-4 SU in January. The Hornets have lost back-to-back games as their high powered No. 1 offense scores well but they will be up against the NBA's No. 1 defense allowing just 102.5 ppg. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
02-04-22 | Creighton v. Seton Hall -6 | 55-74 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
Creighton at Seton Hall 7:00 ET Pirates (-) over Bluejays- After a quick start to the season Seton Hall has taken a downturn losing four of their last five and are 4-6 in conference play. Part of their problem has been the effect of COVID as they have had short-handed losses losing to Providence and Villanova. Creighton came back to defeat Connecticut on Tuesday after blowing a 17-point lead against Xavier on Saturday. The Bluejays 7-1 center Ryan Kalkbrenner suffered an ankle injury last time out and missed the second half and is questionable tonight. The home team is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings and the favorite is 9-2 ATS in the last 11. Take SETON HALL! |

02-03-22 | Washington +2.5 v. California | 84-63 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show | |
Washington at California 11:00 ET Huskies over Golden Bears- Washington who had to go into overtime to hand Utah their tenth straight loss winning their fifth in their last six games now play at California against a team that has lost eight straight. In the first meeting the Bears took a nine-point lead only to lose 64-55 having the home team go 7-0 ATS in the last seven meetings. So, here are the Huskies a small favorite on the road where they are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games overall. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
02-03-22 | Lakers +3.5 v. Clippers | 110-111 | Win | 100 | 12 h 40 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at L.A. Clippers 10:00 ET Lakers (+) over Clippers- Hey, 'how 'bout dat'...the Lakers actually won and 'covered' a game ending a three game slide with Anthony Davis scoring 30 points and 15 rebounds. Because of the frivolous Emmy Awards the Clippers have played eight straight on the road going 4-4 SU. LeBron James has missed the last five games and the Clippers have been without Paul George since December. The Lakers are 4-0 ATS with no rest and the Clippers are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games as favorites. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
02-03-22 | Washington State -3 v. Stanford | 66-60 | Win | 100 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
Washington State at Stanford 9:00 ET Cougars over Cardinal- This one really has me perplexed as the Cougars come up the favorite at Stanford despite an inferior record and having lost at home 62-57 in the first meetings. Another thing that bothers me about this 'price' is how Stanford has dominated the series winning 15 of the last 17 meetings overall and Washington State hasn't won at Stanford since January 2011. So how can they be favored? Well, they are 8-3-1 ATS in their n;last 12 road games including 4-0-1 ATS in their last five games as road favorites. Take WASHINGTON STATE! |
|||||||
02-03-22 | UCLA v. Arizona -6.5 | Top | 66-76 | Win | 100 | 9 h 36 m | Show |
UCLA at Arizona 8:00 ET Wildcats (-) over Bruins- A huge contrast in styles here as No. 4 UCLA brings their tough defense allowing just 63.9 ppg up against No. 5 Arizona whose offense is ranked third scoring 86 ppg. The Bruins have won six straight and 11 of 12 with their lone loss coming in OT to Oregon while the Wildcats have won 6-of-7 with their lone loss coming at UCLA 75-59 a week ago. Arizona's stellar offense have hit a snap the last two times out as they shot 30.7 and 32.2 percent in each of their last two games. UCLA has three player questionable including standout Johnny Juzang. Wildcats looking to shoot better tonight and gain a bit of revenge with the home team 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take ARIZONA! |
|||||||
02-03-22 | Suns v. Hawks +4.5 | Top | 115-124 | Win | 100 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
Phoenix at Atlanta 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Suns- They are at it again...the Suns who already own the NBA's longest winning streak this season have now won 11 straight going 8-3 ATS. Atlanta has been playing well and just had their own seven-game win streak stopped by Toronto (Megabucks winner) Monday. Phoenix has had the best of it between these two as they are 17-8-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings. The Hawks are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games and get the money here. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
02-03-22 | Heat v. Spurs +4.5 | 112-95 | Loss | -107 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
Miami at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Heat- It has happened just twice now this season as the Heat have lost three in-a-row while San Antonio has dropped their last two. Miami players complained of fatigue after losing late at Toronto having played four games in five days and this will be their fifth game on seven days. Trend wise it is all Miami but that should be expected as they are the better team. But, tonight the Spurs come to play as they are 4-1 ATS after a loss. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Wisconsin v. Illinois -6.5 | 67-80 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show | |
Wisconsin at Illinois 9:00 ET Illini (-) over Badgers- This one seems a bit 'off' as No. 18 Illinois is such a heavy favorite over No. 11 Wisconsin who have won nine of their past 10. but, things have turned around in this series as the badgers had won 15 straight meetings but have now lost the last three. Illinois rallied for a come-from-behind win over Northwestern as Kofi Cockburn returned to action. The Illini are 0-4 ATS in their last four games but are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games as home favorites and the Favorites is 18-7-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings. Take ILLINOIS! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Oklahoma State +2.5 v. Kansas State | 68-71 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
Oklahoma State at Kansas State 9:00 ET Cowboys (+) over Wildcats- Both clubs are 10-10 and on three-game losing streaks. Oklahoma State has defeated Baylor but blew a 16-point lead to Florida and lost 81-72 last time out while Kansas State had wins over Texas and Texas Tech. The Wildcats were beaten by common opponent Baylor 74-49 their worst loss of the season and are 9-19-2 ATS in their last 30 home games while the road team is 4-0 AATs in the last four meetings. Take OKLAHOMA STATE! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Cavs v. Rockets +5.5 | 104-115 | Win | 100 | 10 h 23 m | Show | |
Cleveland at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Cavaliers- Cleveland who is having their best season since the departure of Lebron have won nine of 11 but are in a tough spot right now. The Cavaliers lost guard Darius Garland to injury and his absence has a huge impact on the Cavs play. Earlier this season with Garland scoring 35 points in Cleveland they pounded the Rockets by 35 points. This time they meet in Houston and Cleveland is 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 road games. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Hornets +4.5 v. Celtics | Top | 107-113 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 56 m | Show |
Charlotte at Boston 7:30 ET Hornets (+) over Celtics- Two teams that are off extreme results from their last outings as Boston won their second straight a 122-92 romp over Miami Monday while the Hornets were getting blown out 115-90 at home to the Clippers. I expect both clubs to move toward the center here as there was a difference of 55 points in their results. The Celtics won the first meetings in October 140-129 in overtime...turnabout-is-fair-play. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Grizzlies v. Knicks +4 | 120-108 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 54 m | Show | |
Memphis at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Grizzlies- Boy, this looks inviting...too inviting. After dropping three straight on the road New York has won their last two a home and host Memphis who has won 16 of their last 20. The Grizzlies had an 11-game win streak that ended two weeks ago and they are just 5-4 since. Ja Morant the Memphis guard was drafted one spot before the Knicks took RJ Barrett and the local media will make this matchup their storyline. Look for the Knicks to surprise the Grizzlies here. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
02-02-22 | Notre Dame +4.5 v. Miami-FL | 68-64 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Notre Dame at Miami-FL 7:00 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Hurricanes- Defense will be key in this match in Miami as the Hurricanes will 'press' you end-to-end while Notre Dame who ranks No. 208 on offense try and improve on their 43 point output against Duke on Monday. The Hurricanes have won 12-of-14 with both losses coming at the hands of Florida State and are 9-2 at home. The Canes have been out-rebounded in 10 of 11 games against Power-5 schools and yet they are 8-3 in those contests. The Fighting Irish are 4-1 ATS after a loss and Miami is 4-13-1 ATS in their last 18 games as favorites. Take NOTRE DAME! |
|||||||
02-01-22 | Ole Miss v. LSU -12.5 | 76-72 | Loss | -108 | 12 h 1 m | Show | |
Mississippi at L.S.U. 9:00 ET Tigers (-) over Rebels- If there is a team that needs a big win it is Louisiana State who have lost four of five after a 15-1 start to the season. Mississippi is in a bad spot and are 1-6 away from home this season and although the won over Kansas State on Saturday but were 1-5 leading into the win. LSU does it with defense as they allow just 59.2 ppg and the Rebels are terrible on offense ranking No. 282 scoring just 67 points per game. The Rebels are 1-4 ATS after a SU win and the Tigers are 14-3-1 ATS in their last 18 home games. Take LSU! |
|||||||
02-01-22 | Providence v. St. John's -3 | 86-82 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
Providence at St. John's 9:00 ET Red Storm (+) over Friars- Providence is No. 15 in the nation and has been a part of the Top-25 since December and have won their last five games including a 65-63 win over Marquette on Saturday. St. John's has lost five of their last seven and are unbeaten on their Queens campus. As good as the Friars have been they are just 1-4 ATS after a SU win while the Storm are 12-5 at home against teams with winning records. Take ST. JOHN'S! |
|||||||
02-01-22 | Warriors v. Spurs +2.5 | Top | 124-120 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 1 m | Show |
Golden State at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Warriors- Interesting matchup where the 'price' is way too cheap. Golden State has won six straight games and are off a late game win at Houston and now scoot to San Antonio where the Spurs are lay-in-wait. The Spurs are expecting a trio of injured to return to the lineup as Murray, Poeltl and Derrick White will all play tonight. Golden State is still without Draymond Green and Otto Porter Jr will also be out. The Spurs have won seven of the last 10 meetings and are 4-1 after a SU loss and the Warriors are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
02-01-22 | Michigan State v. Maryland +4 | Top | 65-63 | Win | 100 | 10 h 7 m | Show |
Michigan State at Maryland 7:00 ET Terrapins (+) over Spartans- One of these two teams is hot and the other is not. Michigan State routed rival Michigan on Saturday with the bench outscoring the Wolverines 33-6 and their second stringers have outscored opponents 144-43 in their past five games. Last season the Spartans had a losing record in Big Ten play but still managed to get to the Final-4 while the Terrapins shot just 28.6% of its field goal attempts against the Hoosiers in their loss Saturday. By all right MSU should be a much bigger favorite and I believe the Book are telling 'us' that there is an upset brewing. Take MARYLAND! |
|||||||
02-01-22 | Texas A&M v. Tennessee -10.5 | 80-90 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 18 m | Show | |
Texas A&M at Tennessee 7:00 ET Volunteers (-) over Aggies- Tennessee trailed Texas by 17 points with 7:59 to go at Texas Saturday and held the Longhorns without a field goal the rest of the way but were beaten by a free throw with 6.2 seconds remaining. This time the Volunteers are looking to get off to a quicker start to handle the Aggies who have lost four straight games after starting the season 15-2. Texas A&M actually has a better record than the Vols and they are 4-0 ATS in their last four road games which makes me suspicious to why the line to so high. Vols are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as favorites. Take TENNESSEE! |
|||||||
01-31-22 | TCU v. Oklahoma -5 | 72-63 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
Texas Christian at Oklahoma 9:00 ET Sooners (-) over Horned Frogs- TCU has alternated wins and losses the last five games but have wins over ranked teams on each of the past two Saturday's including defeating No. 19 LSU 77-68. Oklahoma is reeling and has lost five of their last six including a 86-68 loss on Saturday to No. 1 ranked Auburn. The Sooners are 8-3 ATS following a loss and the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take OKLAHOMA! |
|||||||
01-31-22 | Raptors +1.5 v. Hawks | Top | 106-100 | Win | 100 | 9 h 56 m | Show |
Toronto at Atlanta 7:30 ET Raptors (+) over Hawks- Atlanta has won their last seven games and are 7-0 ATS in that span and will meet Toronto for the first time this season and the Hawks have won the past three meetings. The Hawks reserves have outscored opponents 160-60 the last six games and are 6-0 ATS in their last six home games. The Raptors who are off a 3OT win at Miami on Saturday are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games as underdogs and 16-6 ATS in their last 22 games overall. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
01-31-22 | Kings +6.5 v. Knicks | 96-116 | Loss | -107 | 9 h 51 m | Show | |
Sacramento at New York 7:30 ET Kings (+) over Knicks- So much more was expected from both of these clubs as the youngsters on Sacramento was supposed to mature and the Knicks busted up any winning chemistry they had established last season. The Kings have lost six straight while New York has lost six of seven. RJ Barrett the NY guard admits that they just don't match other teams intensity down the stretch. The lowly Kings blew a 17-point lead to the 76ers last time out and are just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 road games while New York is 7-2 ATS at home in their last nine. Still, this one should come down to the final buzzer. Take SACRAMENTO! |
|||||||
01-31-22 | Duke v. Notre Dame +5.5 | Top | 57-43 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 40 m | Show |
Duke at Notre Dame 7:00 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Blue Devils- Both of these clubs are a half-game behind Miami in the ACC and the winner will move into a tie for the conference lead. Duke has won three straight while the Fighting Irish have won their last four. The teams split the season series last year each winning on the others court. Mike Brey the Notre Dame coach is a former underling of the Blue Devils' Mike Krzyzewshi and has defeated Duke six times and the Irish are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games overall. Take NOTRE DAME! |
|||||||
01-31-22 | Iowa v. Penn State +5 | 86-90 | Win | 100 | 10 h 31 m | Show | |
Iowa at Penn State 7:00 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Hawkeyes- Penn State lost their third straight game last time out getting routed by Indiana 74-57 a game where they trailed 46-17 at the half and I expect a better effort this time out. Iowa is just 2-4 on the road and lost 83-73 at Purdue Thursday night but are 6-2 ATS as favorites while the Lions are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games. The home team is 6-2-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take PENN STATE! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Nuggets +6.5 v. Bucks | 136-100 | Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
Denver at Milwaukee 7:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Bucks- Denver is having quite a road trip as they have won at Detroit, Brooklyn and New Orleans and have four straight victories as Nikola Jokic has taken over. He is averaging 29.3 points, 13.1 rebounds and 10.5 assists in his last eight games. The Bucks have won four of five but are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as favorites including 2-5 ATS at home. The Nuggets are 4-1 ATS in their last five trips to the Brew City and get the money once again. Take DENVER! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | 49ers v. Rams -3.5 | 17-20 | Loss | -100 | 32 h 10 m | Show | |
San Francisco at L.A. Rams 6:40 ET Rams (-) over 49ers- The Niners have defeated the Rams six straight times and have been very physical doing it as many consider the Rams 'soft' in comparison. Los Angeles is supposed to be the home team as the game is at SoFi Stadium but if the attendance is anything like the first time they met in L.A. there may be more fans wearing red jerseys than the Rams blue. The most impressive performances in the postseason have been given to us by the Rams although last weeks giving up a 27-3 lead was due to four lost fumbles and they still won the game. More than anything I believe the difference this time out will be in the quarterbacking and I give a huge edge to the Rams. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Pittsburgh v. Boston College -3.5 | 56-69 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
Pittsburgh at Boston College 4:00 ET Eagles (-) over Panthers- A pair of ACC dregs that the Big East should be happy are gone. In the earlier meeting at Pittsburgh the Panthers prevailed 69-67 and are off a 64-53 home win over Syracuse. Boston College has dropped eight of their last 10 games and are looking for a win over a team that they know they can beat. Pitt is 2-6 ATS after a SU win and the Eagles are 4-1 ATS after a SU loss. Take BOSTON COLLEGE! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Blazers +6 v. Bulls | Top | 116-130 | Loss | -107 | 6 h 40 m | Show |
Portland at Chicago 3:30 ET Trailblazers (+) over Bulls- Chicago is struggling to keep it together as injuries and COVID are beginning to take a toll. Without Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso the Bulls defense has suffered and so has their overall play. The Bulls have dropped eight of their last 11 and face a team that has won five of seven on the road after starting 2-13 in away games. CJ McCollum has return to play and is looking to pad the Trailblazers 8-2 ATS record in the last 10 meetings. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Bengals v. Chiefs -6.5 | Top | 27-24 | Loss | -130 | 46 h 59 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Kansas City 3:05 ET Chiefs (+) over Bengals- Can you envision Cincinnati in the Super Bowl...I can't! Don't get me wrong I like where they are and what the Bengals are doing especially with a winner like Joe Burrow. But, their time for this season is done. Kansas City has won 11 of 12 with their lone loss coming at Cincinnati as Joe Borrow passed for 415 yards with Ja'Marr Chase receiving 266 of those yards. The Bengals are 4-0 ATS in their last four as underdogs but are 2-6-1 ATS in their limited playoff experience, while the Chiefs are 6-0 ATS as home favorites and 6-2 ATS in their last eight playoff games. Take KANSAS CITY! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Lakers v. Hawks -7.5 | 121-129 | Win | 100 | 3 h 8 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Atlanta 1:00 ET Hawks (-) over Lakers- Atlanta is looking to repeat what they did last season when they turned things around and make a run into the playoffs. The Hawks are soaring having won their last six and host the Lakers who have lost their last two games and three of their last four. This line seems exceedingly high although LeBron James has missed the last two games an Anthony Davis returned to action after missing 17 games only to bail out Thursday because os a sore wrist. L.A. played tough last time out and got the money against the Hornets but are 7-21 ATS after a point spread win and the high flying Hawks are 5-0 ATS in their last five home games. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Marquette +2.5 v. Providence | Top | 63-65 | Win | 100 | 4 h 34 m | Show |
Marquette at Providence 12:30 ET Golden Eagles (+) over Friars- Very quietly Marquette has won seven straight including four wins over ranked teams. The Golden Eagles (former Warriors) last defeated was a double-overtime loss at Creighton on New Year's Day. No. 17 Providence is 12-0 SU and barely have to give points here. Isn't this 'price' way cheap for a team that is undefeated as hosts. The Eagles own an 88-56 win over the Friars already this year and now they will sweep the season series. Take MARQUETTE! |
|||||||
01-30-22 | Ohio State v. Purdue -9.5 | 78-81 | Loss | -109 | 3 h 3 m | Show | |
Ohio St at Purdue 12:00 ET Boilermakers (-) over Buckeyes- Boy, this 'line' looks way high to me. Ohio State is off a dominating performance against Minnesota where they out-rebounded the Gophers 48-22 grabbing 20 offensive boards. The Buckeyes won't find 'cleaning' the glass so easy this time out as they are 2-6 ATS following a win and the Boilermakers are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall. The favorite is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take PURDUE! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | Raptors +5.5 v. Heat | Top | 124-120 | Win | 100 | 11 h 53 m | Show |
Toronto at Miami 8:00 ET Raptors (+) over Heat- Clubs that appear to be moving in opposite directions as Miami has won nine of the last 11 games while the Raptors have lost six of their last nine games overall. Toronto has been playing without Fred VanVleet but he should return to action tonight and lost to Chicago on Thursday and are 7-0 ATS after a SU loss and they are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as underdogs. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | Tennessee +4 v. Texas | 51-52 | Win | 100 | 12 h 59 m | Show | |
Tennessee at Texas 8:00 ET Volunteers (+) over Longhorns- The storyline here has more to do with the sidelines than who's playing the game and former Texas coach of 17 years Rick Barnes return for the first time since being dismissed in 2015. The Longhorns return home after a dominating performance a 73-50 win over TCU their biggest win of the season but, they are 2-6 ATS after a win of 20 points or more. The Vols overcame a five minute drought and came from behind to defeat Florida 78-71 on Wednesday. The Longhorns have the No. 1 defense in the nation allowing only 54.7 ppg but their offense struggles ranking 225. The Vols defense is tough enough surrendering 63.1 still among the best. Take TENNESSEE! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | Baylor v. Alabama +4 | 78-87 | Win | 100 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
Baylor at Alabama 4:00 ET Crimson Tide (+) over Bears- After dropping a pair of Big-12 conference games the Bears have won three in-a-row and come growling into Tuscaloosa against an Alabama squad that fell flat at lowly Georgia and have dropped four of their last six. The Crimson must have had something on their minds as they have shown they can play with the best having defeated Gonzaga, Tennessee, LSU and their lone loss in 10 home games was to No. 1 Auburn. Baylor may be the best team in the country again and have great balance and play both ends of the floor but this is not a good spot for them...away, non-conference against a team hungry for a win. Take ALABAMA! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | Virginia Tech +2.5 v. Florida State | Top | 85-72 | Win | 100 | 7 h 20 m | Show |
Virginia Tech at Florida State 3:00 ET Hokies (+) over Seminoles- Florida State has shown that they can play with just about anybody defeating ACC leading Miami twice and Duke. Virginia Tech just dropped a game to Miami where they were outscored 8-0 in the final minutes dropping to 10-10. This line is way low considering the past performances of these two clubs so it will have to be done with defense. The Hokies are once again once of the leaders on defense allowing just 61.6 ppg and they will disrupt the Seminole flow. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | St. Joe's v. St Bonaventure -10.5 | 69-80 | Win | 100 | 6 h 44 m | Show | |
St. Joseph's at St. Bonaventure 2:00 ET Bonnies (-) over Hawks- One might think that this might be close with both squads fighting for Jesus as Catholic schools but there is no love loss here. One oddity that might bring you in toward the underdog is that both teams average 70.0 points per game but the Hawks are 10-21 after a SU win and the favorite is 4-1 in the last five meetings. Take ST. BONAVENTURE! |
|||||||
01-29-22 | Oklahoma +10 v. Auburn | 68-86 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 29 m | Show | |
Oklahoma at Auburn 2:00 ET Sooners (+) over Tigers- After winning 16 consecutive games the No. 1 Tigers are brimming with confidence and well they should be but they realize there is more to be done. Oklahoma snapped a 4-game losing steak with win at West Virginia Wednesday and they are ready tested having played Baylor and six ranked teams in their past eight and the fourth top-10 team. The Sooners have won nine straight against the SEC and realize this isn't football. Take OKLAHOMA! |
|||||||
01-28-22 | Bulls v. Spurs +2.5 | Top | 122-131 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
Chicago at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Bulls- Chicago has come a long way since the end of last season and now have an All-NBA starting guard as DeMar DeRozan who played his last three seasons with the Spurs. But, the Bulls have struggled in recent weeks with injuries and players out because of COVID. They are 0-3-1 ATS in their last four as road favorites and 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight road games overall. The Spurs are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games following a loss. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
01-28-22 | Jazz +4 v. Grizzlies | 109-119 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 1 m | Show | |
Utah at Memphis 8:10 ET Jazz (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis is the hottest team in the NBA winning 14 of 17 games with Ja Morant making his mark averaging 36.8 points and 8.5 assists in the last four games. Utah on the other side has lost nine of 11 games as both Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell have missed the last five games. Both stars are probable for tonight's battle. With the Jazz having their problems and the Grizzlies so hot I am surprised the line is this low. The Jazz are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and Memphis is 0-6 ATS in their first home games after a road trip of seven days or more. (How 'bout dat). Take UTAH! |

01-28-22 | Pistons +3.5 v. Magic | 103-119 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 2 m | Show | |
Detroit at Orlando 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Magic- The NBA's worst go head-to-head tonight in Orlando where the Pistons who have won only 11 games go after the Magic who have just nine victories. But, as a good friend once said to me, 'There's got to be a winner' when the game is over. The goof here is that Detroit has won just four of 22 road games while Orlando has only three wins at home in 20 games. The Pistons have covered their last four outings and are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings. Take DETROIT! |

01-27-22 | Lakers +2.5 v. 76ers | Top | 87-105 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 21 m | Show |
L.A. Lakers at Philadelphia 7:30 ET Lakers (+) over 76ers- In Joel Embiid unstoppable? He has at least 38 points and 12 rebounds in four straight games and he has elevated his play. The floundering Lakers fresh off a win at Brooklyn saw their defensive stalwart Anthony Davis return to action after missing 17 games and block four shots. Los Angeles was 7-10 in his absence and have struggled against teams with winning records going 6-14 in their last 20. 76ers are hot but still are just 5-11 ATS in their last 15 home games. Take the LAKERS! |

01-26-22 | Mavs v. Blazers +4.5 | 132-112 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 50 m | Show | |
Dallas at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Mavericks- Both teams fell in their games last night with Dallas falling 130-92 at Golden State and Portland failing 109-107 while hosting Minnesota. The Mavericks lost more than a game last night as Tim Hardaway Jr. sustained a broken foot and adjusting to playing without your point guard might take time. Dallas has won the last two meeting in Portland by an average of 27.5 points. I don't expect that tonight. Take PORTLAND! |

01-26-22 | Raptors +4 v. Bulls | Top | 105-111 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
Toronto at Chicago 8:10 ET Raptors (+) over Bulls- Toronto is looking to get remain on track after defeating Charlotte 125-113 on Tuesday and they did it without Fred VanFleet who was sidelined. The Raptors are 6-0 ATS with no rest and 15-5 ATS in their last 20 games overall. Chicago after a fabulous start have hit hard with injuries and COVID protocols and are struggling losing five of their last six and are 2-5-1 ATS as home favorites. Take TORONTO! |

01-26-22 | Arkansas v. Ole Miss +4.5 | Top | 64-55 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 55 m | Show |
Arkansas at Mississippi 7:00 ET Rebels (+) over Razorbacks- Since starting conference play 0-3 the Razorbacks have won four straight SEC games with their lone road win this season coming at LSU 10 days ago. Mississippi had dropped six of seven before we posted them as 'our' Megabucks 70-54 winner over Florida on Monday. Although Arkansas has won seven straight in the series the Rebels are 7-1-1 ATS as home underdogs and are feeling very confident. Take MISSISSIPPI! |

Vanderbilt at South Carolina 7:00 ET Commodores (+) over Gamecocks- Vandy has dropped four of their last five including the first game of this slide to the Gamecocks 72-70 as hosts. The Commodores are 4-2 SU on the road this season and are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 road games while South Carolina is just 1-5 ATS following a straight-up win. Both clubs will be short-handed as injures have affected them but the 'Dores have better depth. Take VANDERBILT! |

01-26-22 | Miami-FL v. Virginia Tech -4.5 | 78-75 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
Miami-Fl at Virginia Tech 7:00 ET Hokies (+) over Hurricanes- Miami has won 10 of their past 12 games, and their only losses during that span were each by one point to rival Florida State while Virginia Tech has dropped their last two. The Hokies won both meetings last season winning by two at home and in overtime at Miami and are favored here which to me is surprising. Consider this, the Canes are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 as underdogs and the Hokies are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall. This 'price' makes no sense. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |

Arizona at U.C.L.A. 10:00 ET Bruins (+) over Wildcats- The best of the Pac-12 go at it at Pauley Pavilion where the Bruins will play before at home before a 'live' crowd for the first time since Dec. 1. UCLA opened the season ranked No. 2 starting but were blown out early in the year to Gonzaga in Las Vegas and have been scraping along ever since. Arizona has moved into the No. 2 spot nationally and is averaging 88.7 ppg also ranking No. 2. The Wildcats are a small favorite here and the underdogs is 17-4 ATS in the last 21 meetings and the Bruins are 6-1 ATS as underdogs. Take UCLA! |

01-25-22 | Mavs +3 v. Warriors | Top | 92-130 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 45 m | Show |
Dallas at Golden State 10:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Warriors- For the Mavericks there is something special that happens when they go play at the Chase Center in San Francisco as they are 3-0 against the host Warriors. Dallas is 11-2 SU in their last 14 games as they have held 10 opponents under 100 points scored. But defense has been the name of the game of Golden State as they are ranked No.1 allowing just 101.9 ppg while the Mavericks are ranked No. 3 allowing just 102.5 ppg. Curry is slumping, Draymond Green is out and Klay Thompson is questionable. Take DALLAS! |

Mississippi State at Kentucky 9:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Wildcats- Kentucky is off a disappointing 80-71 loss at Auburn after leading by 10-points before TyTy Washington turned his ankle and missed the final 30 minutes. In the second half they lost point guard Sahvir Wheeler and dropped their third game against ranked competition. UK had defeated the bulldogs 15 straight time before last season upset win by Mississippi State in the SEC playoffs. Wildcats licking their wounds are just 5-11-1 ATS after a SU loss. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

L.A. Lakers at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Lakers (+) over Nets- So, the word is that the Lakers spent more time partying in South Beach buying five-figure bottles of wine Saturday night before falling to the Heat 113-107 on Sunday. Now, in Brooklyn the Lakers will face the Nets who will be without Kyrie Irving and Los Angeles should have Anthony Davis turning to the lineup tonight. The Lakers are 14-4-3 ATS in their last 21 trips east against the Nets and Brooklyn is 5-16 ATS in their last 21 home games. Take the LAKERS! |

New Orleans at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Pelicans (+) over 76ers- Two years ago the 76ers couldn't buy a win on the road and were a dominate home team but things have turned. They are a pedestrian 10-10 SU and 8-12 ATS as host and this time around are 17-9 SU on the road. New Orleans surprisingly enough are the sixth seed in the East despite a 18-28 record and are off a road win over the Knicks. The Pelicans are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings and are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five games in Philly. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

01-25-22 | Michigan State v. Illinois -5.5 | 55-56 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 38 m | Show | |
Michigan State at Illinois 7:00 ET Illini (-) over Spartans- Michigan was a huge Megabucks winner for 'us' on Friday as they took down the Badgers 86-74 in Wisconsin leading from start to finish. After six straight wins Illinois has dropped their last two games including a double-overtime loss to Purdue. The Illini's top player Kofi Cockburn was out in their loss to Maryland but will return here. Michigan State is 1-4 ATS following a SU win and the home team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings and the Illini are 7-3 ATS as favorites. Take ILLINOIS! |

Write-in Game Chicago at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Bulls- Five games before the season's mid-point the Bulls were 26-10 and one of the best ATS winners in the league but injuries and COVID issues have spun this team in another direction. Chicago was down to six players with 113 combined starts this season and they just haven't been competitive losing seven of their last nine in cluing a loss to the NBA's worst team Orlando yesterday. Oklahoma City has been even worse losing the last five and 10-of-11 losing at Cleveland yesterday 94-87. Thunder are 7-1-1 ATS as home dogs and Bulls are 1-5 ATS as home favorites have get gored here. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

Virginia Tech at North Carolina 8:00 ET Hokies (+) over Tar Heels- The difference in North Carolina with Ray Williams gone could not be more obvious as the Tar Heels look nothing like the 'Carolina' that we are accustomed to seeing take the court this a thing of the past. UNC has lost back-to-back games by 20-or-more points for the first time in 20 years. Virginia Tech was faded late against lowly Boston College on Saturday and have a glaring weakness off the boards while that is the Tar Heels strongest attribute. I just don't believe that that are all that well coached...take VIRGINIA TECH |

Florida at Mississippi 7:00 ET Rebels (+) over Gators- Florida won it's third straight SEC contest when the whipped Vanderbilt on Saturday 61-42 without their leading scorer rebounder and shot blocker center Colin Castleton out. Mississippi have lost four straight and six of seven as Commodores star Scotty Pippen Jr. was 1-of-10 continues to slump shooting 1-10 from the field. The Gators are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games and the dog is 16-5 ATS in the last 21 meetings and the Rebels are 6-1-1 ATS as home underdogs. Take MISSISSIPPI. |

01-24-22 | Louisville +5.5 v. Virginia | 52-64 | Loss | -117 | 7 h 4 m | Show | |
Louisville at Virginia 7:00 ET Cardinals (+) over Cavaliers- More has been expected from these two squads as their matching 11-8 records are more pedestrian than the standards they usually carry. Virginia's problems are in more talent level and execution than effort. In the Louisville camp there appears to be issues concerning effort and attitude. The Cardinals have dropped 4-of-5 and are 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine games overall and are off a 78-65 home loss to Notre Dame. Red Birds are 17-7 ATS after a double-digit home loss and the Cavaliers are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games as home favorites. Take LOUISVILLE! |

Memphis at Dallas 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Grizzlies- Hot is hot and both of these squads are on a run having each won 8-of-10. This is the fourth meetings of the season between the two and Dallas has won the last two with Memphis the winner in the first encounter. It was the Mavericks who ended the Grizzlies 11-game win streak and are off a 109-101 home loss to Phoenix and they are 5-0 ATS after a straight-up loss. Take DALLAS! |

Philadelphia at San Antonio 7:00 ET Spurs (+) over 76ers- Both of these clubs blew fourth quarter leads in their last encounters with the 76ers losing to the Clippers 102-101 at home blowing a 24-point lead while the Spurs faded in the final quarter in their home loss to Brooklyn 117-102 on Friday. Philadelphia who was led by Joel Embiid who has scored 90 points in his last two games but the Sixers who are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 trips to San Antonio will be short handed with just eight players available. Spurs are 19-7-1 ATS after a SU loss of 10-points or more. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

L.A. Lakers at Miami 6:10 ET Lakers (+) over Heat- Playing 'against' Miami is always so stressful because they are so well coached disciplined and always give a professional effort. Not the same can be said of the Lakers who have more chemistry problems than I ever had in sophomore science labs. LeBron James at 37 is playing some of the best basketball of his career and is returning to Miami where he won a pair of NBA titles. The Heat will mostly likely be without Tyler Herro once again and he is a key component to their success. Take LOS ANGELES |

Michigan at Indiana 3:30 ET Wolverines (+) over Hoosiers- Entering Thursday night the Hoosiers had lost nine straight games to Purdue before upsetting the No. 4 Boilermakers 68-65. Sunday, Indiana takes on Michigan a conference rival that has defeated them seven straight times in the regular season with all wins by double-digits. The hosts are a perfect 12-0 SU at home and are 8-0 ATS as home favorites in their last eight games while the Wolves are 3-9 ATS as road underdogs. Look for the Hoosier to have a letdown here after their huge win on Thursday. Take MICHIGAN! |

01-23-22 | Rams v. Bucs -2.5 | 30-27 | Loss | -114 | 22 h 19 m | Show | |
L.A. Rams at Tampa Bay 3:00 ET Buccaneers (-) over Rams- After posting his first career playoff win Matthew Stafford will facing the winningest playoff quarterback in NFL history. What is lost in Stafford's performance was a defense and running game that was so dominate against Arizona that he only threw 17 passes. Earlier this season in Week 3 the Rams posted a 34-24 win over the Buccaneers in LA with Stafford tossing four TD passes and for 343 yards. The Rams looked unbeatable last week as they committed zero turnovers. I expect adjustments to be made by the Bucs...take TAMPA BAY! |

San Francisco at Green Bay 8:15 ET 49ers (+) over Packers- I would feel a lot better about this one if I had stuck to my guns and 'fired' with the 49ers last week but alas it was not to be. This week I see more of the same. I know bucking Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay is a tough task and San Francisco may have left their best on the field in last weeks romp over the Cowboys. Niners whipped Green Bay in the 2019 NFC Championship game but the 'Pack' has won the two meetings since including their 30-28 win in the Bay area in Week 3. SF is 6-1 ATS as underdogs and 4-0 ATS in Division Playoffs while the Packers are 7-1 ATS at home and 11-1 ATS after a SU loss. Tough call but it is SAN FRANCISCO! |

01-22-22 | Thunder v. Cavs -12 | 87-94 | Loss | -106 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
Oklahoma City at Cleveland 8:00 ET Cavaliers (-) over Thunder- The Cavaliers have made one of the most impressive turnarounds from one season to the next in the NBA and currently are an amazing 30-15-1 ATS on the year and they have done it with defense. Cleveland is ranked 3rd in points allowed with 102.8 and Oklahoma City is hampered on offense ranking dead last with just 100.6 PPG. Despite their poor overall record the thunder have been a 'take' on the road going 14-6 ATS as road underdogs. But, the Cavaliers are 10-2-1 ATS in their last 13 home games including 7-2-1 ATS as home favorites. Cavs are off a blowout loss at Chicago and look to rebound here. Take CLEVELAND! |

North Carolina at Wake Forest 8:00 ET Tar Heels over Demon Deacons- This is a bit of a test for North Carolina who was just wasted 85-57 at Miami a game where they never competed but are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a loss. Wake Forest is off back-to-back road wins and is 10-1 SU at home. Carolina is one of the top rebounding teams in the country and have more their game into the paint. The underdogs is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take NORTH CAROLINA! |

L.S.U. at Tennessee 6:00 ET Volunteers (-) over Tigers- Another pair os Top-25 SEC teams going at it and we are not even on the football field. LSU has managed to win some big games and even posted an impressive 79-67 win over Tennessee two weeks ago in Baton Rouge. But, Auburn has has it's dynamics change as they have lost both starting guards to injury who were their leading scorers and rebounder and assist leader. The home team is 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings and the Volunteers are 4-1 ATS in their last five games at home. Take TENNESSEE! |

01-22-22 | Bengals v. Titans -3.5 | 19-16 | Loss | -109 | 18 h 55 m | Show | |
Cincinnati at Tennessee 4:30 ET Bengals (+) over Titans- Looking into the face of Derrick Henry's return there is concern over his effectiveness but without him Tennessee is still formidable as their No. 1 seed has established. In previous playoffs Henry ran for over 175 yards in back-to-back games and with Tannehill being more than serviceable (21 TD's, 14 Ints) Titans are tough out. The upstart Bengals has a Q that has been a winner at every level and he's doing it against Joe Burrow had an NFL best 70.4 completion percentage, 4,611 yards passings with 34 TD passes. His ole college All-American receiver JaMarr Chase are spectacular together. But the Bengals have already overachieved. Take TENNESSEE! |

Baylor at Oklahoma 3:00 ET Sooners (+) over Bears- Oklahoma is on a 3-game slide and have lost 4-of-5 with losses to Kansas, Texas and oh yeah Baylor losing 84-74 at Waco. The Bears had their own missteps dropping a pair to Texas Tech and Oklahoma State but rebounded with a 77-68 win at West Virginia on Tuesday. The Bears have won seven straight in the series but it is time for the scrappy Sooners to make changes and adjustments on defense against the Bears front line. Take OKLAHOMA! |

Florida State at Miami-Fl 2:00 ET Hurricanes (-) over Seminoles- A rematch of the top two ACC teams are playing in Miami where the Hurricanes fresh off 28 point win over North Carolina try and extract a bit of revenge against their rival who were the last teams to defeated Miami. FSU won by a single point in the first meeting as a 7.5-point favorite and upset Duke on Tuesday. Seminoles are 1-8 ATS in the last nine on the road and Miami is 5-1 ATS in their last six games overall. Take FLORIDA STATE! |

Kentucky at Auburn 1:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Tigers- A pair of SEC winning streaks are on the line as No. 2 Auburn has knocked over 14 straight opponents while No. 12 Kentucky has notched four straight wins. These two schools that dominate each other in different sports has the Tigers are n control on the gridiron but the Wildcats have had the best of it on the hardwood holding a 92-21 SU advantage. Kentucky is 8th in the nation averaging 83 PPG and Auburn is right behind them with 80.7 PPG. The line is short for good reason as the Wildcats are ready to pounce. Take KENTUCKY! |

The Badgers have won the past two meetings but previous to that the Spartans had won eight straight in the series between the two. MSU is 5-1 ATS after a SU loss and 4-0 ATS in their last four road games. Take MICHIGAN STATE! |

Memphis at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Grizzlies- The Grizzlies have turned heads with their most recent play which included an 11-game win streak with Ja Morant paving the way. Memphis was short-handed in their loss to Milwaukee and will most likely be two players short for tonight's encounter. The Griz have been great as underdogs going 9-2 ATS on the road but are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six trips to Denver. The Nuggets Nikola Jokic is back and dominating play as he recorded another triple-double headed by his 49 points against the Clippers Wednesday. Take DENVER! |

Brooklyn at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Nets- The biggest guessing game in the NBA is who is going to play for Brooklyn and where will they be playing. Well, Kyrie Irving will be playing is Texas while Kevin Durant will be sidelined and James Harden looks once more for another trade. San Antonio has won two of their last three and are 11-7 when they have had their starting lineup healthy. Irving was fined $25,000 last time out for an altercation with a fan. Brooklyn is a totally different team without Durant as they are 7-19 ATS as favorites and 8-21 ATS after a SU win and they are 2-7 ATS in their last nine trips to San Antonio. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

The Blazers Jusuf Nurkic has record three consecutive double-doubles since his return from COVID and they are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five trips to Boston.

Last time out against Detroit the trio including Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins shot 20-of-37 posting just the third wi in eight games for the Warriors. Indiana who has never lost at the Chase Center winning in each of the past two season while Thompson was sidelined.

Phoenix at Dallas 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Suns- There are plenty of positive notes to say about both these clubs as Phoenix has won four straight on the road and are No. 1 ranked in Field Goal percentage (47.6%) and have dominated this series. The Suns beat Dallas twice in November and have won eight straight meetings and 15 of the past 18 SU. The Mavericks have won four in-a-row and 10 of their last 11 games including six straight at home. The Suns Deandre Ayton will miss this encounter while Luka Doncic who miss both November meetings is ready to go. Take DALLAS! |

This hasn't been much of a intra-state rivalry of late as the Boilermakers have won the last nine meetings and haven't loss to Indiana since February 2016. But, Purdue is 5-11 ATS as road favorites and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall while the Hoosiers are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games and 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as home underdogs and the home team is 5-2-1 ATS in the last eight meets.

Indiana at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Pacers (+) over Lakers- The Lakers are beginning to realize 'this is serious' as they are cutting players minutes on the court. Los Angeles used only four players off the bench in Monday win over Utah as 'Magic' oops, LeBron ran the show and the less Westbrook handles the ball the better for them. But, old habits are hard to break and I expect Russell to have his hands on the ball more tonight and that helps the Pacers who have dropped their last four and 13 of 16. But the Pacers are 17-8-1 ATS in their last 26 games as underdogs and the Lakers are 9-19 ATS as home favorites. Take INDIANA! |

Detroit still they dregs of the league are 3-19 SU on the road but are an improved 10-12 ATS and are 13-4 ATS in their last 17 following a loss. Sacramento is in turmoil as coaching changes and person grips about wanting ti be traded have been the highlight of their season. (oh yeah, they have beaten the Lakers).

Toronto at Dallas 8:30 ET Raptors (+) over Mavericks- NBA often is a game of streaks and the Mavericks are on one right now having won 10 of 11 including their last two at home against Orlando and Oklahoma City. Toronto has dropped 3-of-4 after having won their previous six and are playing their fourth straight game on the road. The Raptors bounce back for the foremost as they are 6-1 ATS after SU loss and 13-3 ATS against a team with a winning record and 12-4 ATS in their last 16 overall. Take TORONTO! |

01-19-22 | Kentucky -7 v. Texas A&M | 64-58 | Loss | -114 | 11 h 43 m | Show | |
Kentucky at Texas A&M 8:30 ET Wildcats (-) over over Aggies- Let me set this up from my viewpoint. Texas A&M is 15-2 SU. A&M has won eight straight games, the Aggies are 4-0 in the SEC and they have won the last two meetings in the series. Kentucky is 14-3 SU and has won three straight games but is 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 road games and yet...this number is way high and the oddsmakers and pollsters agree on this one. I have to lay it here. Take KENTUCKY! |

01-19-22 | St. John's +3.5 v. Creighton | 64-87 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 16 m | Show | |
St. John's at Creighton 7:00 ET Red Storm (+) over Blue Jays- Both clubs are 10-5 SU and come stumbling into this fray having lost three of their last five. Creighton has had problems with turnovers and that plays into the Red Storms' create 'havoc' pressing defense. St. John's just ended a two game losing streak with a dominating 88-69 win over Georgetown while the Blue Jays lost at Xavier 80-73 last time out after 10 day layoff because of COVID issues. They will try and recover here but it is the Johnnies's that rebound well. Take ST. JOHN'S! |

01-19-22 | Wake Forest v. Georgia Tech +3 | Top | 80-64 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
Wake Forest at Georgia Tech 7:00 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Demon Deacons- Hard to believe that Georgia Tech is the defending ACC Champions as they sit dead last at 1-5 in conference and 7-9 overall. The Yellow Jackets were blown out from start to finish on Saturday against North Carolina 88-65 while Wake Forest was a winner at Virginia finishing with a 13-0 run. Tech won both meetings last season and are 5-1 ATS after a loss of 20 or more points. The home team has dominated the series going 20-8 ATS in the last 28 meetings. Deacons are just 3-9 ATS as road favorites. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

01-18-22 | Duke v. Florida State +5.5 | 78-79 | Win | 100 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
Duke at Florida State 9:00 ET Seminoles (+) over Blue Devils- In a day and age where the moment you step over the mid-court line your are in shooting range the Blue Devils have moved the game closer to the basket. Duke scored 58 points in the paint against NC State on Saturday but will face a formidable front line from the Seminoles. Florida State has win three straight and they have all been close so pressure down the stretch should not be a concern. Devils are just 5-11 ATS on road against teams with winning records and the Seminoles are 43-19-2 as home underdogs the last 64. Take FLORIDA STATE! |
|||||||
01-18-22 | Wisconsin v. Northwestern +3.5 | Top | 82-76 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 47 m | Show |
Wisconsin at Northwestern 9:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Badgers- Northwestern ended a 4-game losing streak Saturday at No. 10 Michigan State and now they face the No. 8 team in the country. Wisconsin has won six straight including wins over ranked teams Ohio State, Iowa and Purdue and now they are less than a long shot away from covering. The line is 'suspect' to me although the home team is 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the Wildcats are 1-5 ATS in their last five home games. Need a miracle...take NORTHWESTERN! |

01-18-22 | Wolves v. Knicks +3 | Top | 112-110 | Win | 100 | 9 h 53 m | Show |
Minnesota at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Timberwolves- A pair of clubs treading water to keep their heads above the break even point and are playing well of late. New York has won 8-of-12 to bring themselves to .500 and the T'wolves are 5-2 in their last seven games to come within one-game of the mark. Minnesota who is 8-3-1 ATS on the road are just 1-4 ATS at MSG and the Knicks are 5-1 ATS at home in their last six games. Take NEW YORK! |

01-18-22 | Iona v. Monmouth +3 | 86-85 | Win | 100 | 7 h 45 m | Show | |
Iona at Monmouth 7:00 ET Hawks (+) over Gaels- I love this matchup as I personally have been on both campus (not that there is much) and it has been Iona that has a basketball history to note while there is not much to speak of about Monmouth...until this year. Now, we understand that with Rick Pitino as coach the Iona will once again gain prominence (Oh for those Jeff Ruland days) and become competitive on the national seen. The Hawks will never that kind of impact but they have made an impression with wins over Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and Yale and a narrow loss to St. John's but they enter this game with three straight losses. I look for a huge rebound here. Take MONMOUTH! |

01-18-22 | Kansas v. Oklahoma +4.5 | 67-64 | Win | 100 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
Kansas at Oklahoma 7:00 ET Sooners (+) over Jayhawks- Kansas has won 10-of-11 while Oklahoma is off back-to-back losses for the first time this season. After a 3-game span in a non-starters role the Jayhawks' 6-10 David McCormack says it 'lit a fire in me.' The Sooners don't have a starter over 6-9 and should be challenged. Kansas was an 85-59 winner at West Virginia Saturday and is just 6-17 ATS after a win of 20 points or more and Sooners are 7-0 ATS in their last eight games as home underdogs. Take OKLAHOMA! |
|||||||
01-18-22 | North Carolina v. Miami-FL +2.5 | 57-85 | Win | 100 | 7 h 41 m | Show | |
North Carolina at Miami-Fl 7:00 ET Hurricanes (+) over over Tar Heels- Gone is Ray Williams and a bit of the North Carolina mystique is now waning as the 12-4 and unranked Tar Heels come to Miami to play the upstart Hurricanes who lead the ACC at 5-1. NC is a half-game (4-1) behind and have picked up momentum winning 8-of-10 and are 5-1 ATS in their last six games as favorites. The 'Canes are 10-1 ATS as underdogs in last 11 including 9-3 ATS as home dogs. With a win at Duke the 'South Beachers' believe that they can defeat anybody. Take MIAMI-FL. |

Utah at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Lakers (+) over Jazz- Utah is 15-6 SU on the road while Los Angeles are 9-16 ATS at home. The Jazz just ended a 4-game losing streak Sunday as Rudy Gobert and Rudy Gay returned from protocol and they are 3-8 ATS when playing with no rest. L.A. will still be without star Anthony Davis as these two meet for the first time this season and the Lakers are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings at Home and Utah is 3-10-1 ATS in their last 14 games as favorites. Take LOS ANGELES! |

Phoenix at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Suns- Phoenix once again is riding high on a win streak having won their last three and six of their last seven while the Spurs just ended a five-game losing streak with a home win over the Clippers Saturday. The Suns have already won the first two meetings this season both by four points but San Antonio is 2-0 ATS in those games and 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings overall. Phoenix had an easy outing yesterday against Detroit but are 2-5-1 ATS in the second of back-to-back games. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

01-17-22 | Cardinals v. Rams -3.5 | Top | 11-34 | Win | 100 | 12 h 46 m | Show |
Arizona at L.A. Rams 8:15 ET Rams (+) over Cardinals- This is the third meeting of the season between these two division rivals with each club winning on the road. Arizona started the year 7-0 but they have gone 4-6 since that start including just 1-4 in their last five games. Los Angeles won the division but are just 2-5 against playoff teams but are 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Although the Cardinals are 18-6-2 ATS as road underdogs they are just 3-8 ATS against teams with winning records. The Rams are 11-4-1 ATS after a SU loss and the favorite is 8-2-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take LOS ANGELES! |

01-17-22 | Bulls v. Grizzlies -8 | 106-119 | Win | 100 | 5 h 48 m | Show | |
Chicago at Memphis 3:30 ET Grizzlies (-) over Bulls- Memphis just had their 11-game win streak stopped by Dallas 112-85 Friday (Megabucks winner) and are looking to start another win streak against the slumping Bulls who have lost four of five. This line may seem a bit inflated but Chicago will be without Lonzo Ball and Zach LaVine and the fading Bulls are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games and are 0-4 ATS in their last four games against teams with winning records. The Grizzlies are 5-1 ATS against winning teams and 19-7 ATS in their last 26 games overall. Take MEMPHIS! |

01-16-22 | Steelers v. Chiefs -11.5 | 21-42 | Win | 100 | 12 h 4 m | Show | |
Pittsburgh at Kansas City 8:15 ET Chiefs (-) over Steelers- So with Big Ben leading the way the Steelers are they team that doesn't belong. Everyone has got to feel that they backdoored their way into the playoffs. After all I was calling them a hoax even when I was betting on them. So, now the odds makers are telling us all that Pittsburgh is in over their heads in this matchup. What gets me here is that Tomlin's teams always give everything they have and I wonder of they have left everything they have on the field against the Ravens. I don't see the public on the Steelers and I can see why as the Chiefs are the glamor team. KC already destroyed Pittsburgh three weeks ago 36-10 as the Steelers totaled 225 yards on offense. Take KANSAS CITY! |

01-16-22 | Warriors v. Wolves -4.5 | Top | 99-119 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
Golden State at Minnesota 8:00 ET Timberwolves (-) over Warriors- Minnesota is coming off consecutive losses to the New Orleans Pelicans and Memphis Grizzlies while Golden State posted a 138-96 win at Chicago Friday but had lost four of their previous five games. The Timberwolves players believe that they are ready to establish themselves as a formidable force in the playoff hunt. The last time the Warriors played here they were 4.5-point favorites and now they are 4.5-point underdogs. The line has swung 9-points and I believe the oddsmakers here. Take MINNESOTA! |

01-16-22 | 49ers v. Cowboys -2.5 | Top | 23-17 | Loss | -125 | 8 h 22 m | Show |
San Francisco at Dallas 4:30 ET 49ers (+) over Cowboys- The moment I saw this 'number' I said aloud 'the Cowboys are in trouble.' We posted Dallas as our Megabucks winner on Saturday and they responded by trouncing the under-manned Eagles but this time around they are playing a team that is getting healthy. Dak Prescott has remained inconsistent and when he makes an error here it will cost him and the Cowboys. The Niners have turned it around and will try to dominate the front lines but will find the Cowboys tougher than the realized them would be. The Cowboys are No. 1 in takeaways with 34 and they should cause Jimmy G to have his moments of carelessness. The favorite is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take DALLAS! |

01-16-22 | Eagles +9.5 v. Bucs | 15-31 | Loss | -130 | 5 h 51 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Tampa Bay 1:00 ET Eagles (+) over Buccaneers- This is the second meeting of the season between these two clubs with Tampa Bay (-7) winning at Philadelphia 28-22 back on October 14 as the Bucs dominated 'Time of Possession' virtually 40 minutes to 20. (off 4 seconds). Eagles running back Miles Sanders is good enough to go even with a broken hand. Tampa is 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS at home this season but the Eagles are 10-1 ATS in their last playoff games as underdogs and the dog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. TB is 0-5 ATS in their last five Wildcard games and 1-5 ATS as playoff favorites. Take PHILADELPHIA. |

01-15-22 | Lakers +4.5 v. Nuggets | 96-133 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 12 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Denver 9:00 ET Lakers (+) over Nuggets- Both of these clubs are floundering round the breakeven mark and neither of them look like the contender they expected to be. LeBron James is trying to square to Lakers and has scored 30 or more points in 11 of his last 12 games but L.A. is still without Anthony Davis and has been hit time and again with COVID issues. The reigning MVP Nikola Jokic numbers are even better this season but the supporting cast of the Nuggets hasn't lived up to their potential. Los Angeles is 4-0 ATS in their last four games as road underdogs and are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Denver is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as favorites and 3-9 ATS after a SU win. Take the LAKERS! |
