03-10-23 | Clemson +3.5 v. Virginia | 56-76 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 35 m | Show | |
Clemson at Virginia 9:30 ET Tigers (+) over Cavaliers- Virginia celebrated a bit much after defeating North Carolina yesterday advancing here to host the Tigers. Clemson was laying in wait and ambushed NC State who had just blown out Virginia Tech. Although the higher seed Clemson was not expected to win and they are not expected to win here either but, upsets abound and here’s another one. Take CLEMSON |

03-10-23 | Maryland +2.5 v. Indiana | Top | 60-70 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 53 m | Show |
Maryland vs Indiana 9:30 ET Terrapins (+) over Hoosiers- My how the years do go by as I remember when Indiana was the bully in the Big Ten and Maryland was playing for National Championships out of the Atlantic Coast Conference. But, believe it or not the Hoosiers have appeared in just one Big Ten championship game since 1998 losing to Iowa in 2001. The Terps defeated Indiana at home 66-55 six weeks ago and they will remember how it is done. Take MARYLAND! |
|||||||
03-10-23 | Oregon +5.5 v. UCLA | 56-75 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 17 m | Show | |
Oregon vs UCLA 9:00 ET Ducks (+) over Bruins- UCLA has been cruising along without any real pressure as they are assured a berth win or lose. For the Ducks it is desperation time and they are playing like it. right now they are certainly on the wring side of the bubble and only a win here can possible lead to a change. Effort supreme. Take OREGON! |
|||||||
03-10-23 | Iowa State +4.5 v. Kansas | Top | 58-71 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 56 m | Show |
Iowa State vs Kansas 6:30 ET Cyclones (+) over Jayhawks- How much does Bill Self mean to the Jayhawks during a game? Not as much as T.J. Otzelberger means to Iowa State. Kansas won eight times in the last nine outings and this will be the second straight without him. For the Cyclones who started the action like a whirl wind only to sump mid-season and have once against risen their play and it is all defense. T.J. has them focused and surprise here. Take IOWA STATE! |
|||||||
03-10-23 | Rutgers +5.5 v. Purdue | Top | 65-70 | Win | 100 | 11 h 41 m | Show |
Rutgers vs Purdue 12:00 ET Scarlet Knights (+) over Boilermakers- Purdue was ranked No.1 longer than any other school and will still likely draw a No. 1 seed. When they topped the polls at 22-1 their only defeat came at the hands of the Scarlet Knights 65-64 in West Lafayette on January 2. Rutgers did what they do best as the Wolverines found out yesterday they play defense. They held the Boilermakers to under 40% from the field and forced 13 turnovers. Guess what go ahead that a guess...Okay well that was Rutgers second program win over a No. 1 ranked team as they had beaten Purdue as No. 1 in December 2021. When a team has your number the have your number and the number for Purdue is up once again. Take RUTGERS! |
|||||||
03-09-23 | Knicks v. Kings -2.5 | Top | 117-122 | Win | 100 | 12 h 60 m | Show |
New York at Sacramento 10:00 ET Kings over Knicks- New York had their nine game winning streak ended at home by lowly Charlotte and now must take their longest road trip of the season and visit the Kings who are vying for a playoff berth for the first time in 16 years. Sacramento has won six of seven and are 20-13 at home and with the return of De Aaron Fox tonight the Kings rate the edge. Take SACRAMENTO! |
|||||||
03-09-23 | TCU -140 v. Kansas State | Top | 80-67 | Win | 100 | 18 h 37 m | Show |
TCU vs Kansas State 9:30 ET Horned Frogs (-) over Wildcats- Here we go in a huge match-up where the pollsters and the odds makers have a strong difference of opinion. Sort of like the Georgia/TCU championship game (Just an example). Kansas State is ranked No. 12 and have been Big-12 point spread darlings for a good part of the year. TCU is ranked No. 22 but comes up the favorite in Kansas City as the odds makers are taking a stand. TCU closed with a blowout loss at Oklahoma but are 15-5-1 ATS after a SU loss. Take TEXAS CHRISTIAN! |
|||||||
03-09-23 | Penn State +3.5 v. Illinois | 79-76 | Win | 100 | 15 h 12 m | Show | |
Penn State at Illinois 6:30 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Fighting Illini- As I look back on the college basketball season one lasting thought is that Illinois is over-rated and yet they went 18-13 ATS on the season. But, in actuality I was right as I saw them as a No. 8 ranked team to open the season in Las Vegas. They lost to Baylor leaving me totally unimpressed and now they are no where in the Top-25. Lions won both meetings this season covering by 15 and 25 points. The underdog is 22-10-2 ATS in the last 34 meetings and the Nittany Lions are 20-7-3 ATS in the last 30 neutral site games while the Illini are 3-8 ARS at neutral sites. Take PENN STATE! |
|||||||
03-09-23 | Ohio State +3 v. Iowa | 73-69 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
Ohio State vs Iowa 2:30 ET Buckeyes (+) over Hawkeyes- I really don’t expect an improbably five-game run by the Buckeyes by starting the playoffs as a Megabucks winner has giving them confidence and here is a team that lost nine conference games in-a-row and won only once on the road all season. Ohio State started four freshman in their season regular season final and against Wisconsin. Young fresh legs can play in back-to-back games. Iowa has been a disappointment for most of the season and are 0-4 ATS at neutral sites and the Buckeyes are 4-0 ATS in their last four overall. Take OHIO STATE! |
|||||||
03-09-23 | Rutgers +3.5 v. Michigan | Top | 62-50 | Win | 100 | 9 h 4 m | Show |
Rutgers vs Michigan 12:00 Scarlet Knights (+) over Wolverines- Like the man said many of these game as play-in games needed to win to get in but there are others like this one where the winner is not guaranteed anything while the loser is definitely run out of opportunities. Rutgers won early in Big Ten action and then for time it seemed that the conference caught up with them as playing 20 Conference games can be grueling. Rutgers defense will far out shine anything the Wolverines and do on offense as the Scarlet Knights are ranked No. 9 only allowing 60.4 PPG. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take RUTGERS! |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Stanford +1.5 v. Utah | 73-62 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
Stanford vs Utah 9:00 ET Cardinals (+) over Utes- Both of these programs have had disappointing seasons are it has been getting worse for one as opposed to the other. Utah is on a five-game losing streak and are just 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games while Stanford who had a horrid start to their year has recovered somewhat and closed winning 2-of-3/ Remember if either side was really any good they would not be playing this round. Utes 3-12-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a SU loss while the Cardinal is 9-4 ATS after an ATS win and 8-3 ATS at neutral sites. Take STANFORD |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Mavs v. Pelicans +2 | Top | 106-113 | Win | 100 | 7 h 15 m | Show |
Dallas at New Orleans 7:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Mavericks- These two clubs are battling for playoff spots in the congested Western Conference with Dallas looking forward with Irving while the Pelicans keep looking back for Zion. The Mavericks are off a season high six-game home stand and travel to New Orleans who are struggling having lost six of seven and 17 of their last 22. The Pelicans are 20-11 at home this season and this will be just their second home game in 26 days and they rebound here. Mavericks are 9-23-1 ATS after a SU win. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Ohio State -130 v. Wisconsin | Top | 65-57 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show |
Ohio State vs. Wisconsin 6:30 ET Buckeyes (-) over Badgers- When I first saw this match-up my thoughts were that the Badgers are a tougher group. I mean Ohio State has won just once of 11 road games and that was on New Years Day at Northwestern. Many believe that Wisconsin is on the bubble while Ohio State win have to win five straight. Okay, here is the rub in this one. The Badgers with a better record and a higher seed are an underdog and this after having defeated the Buckeyes on their own floor. Looks like they have made the wrong team the favorite and the favorite is 15-7 ATS in the last 22 meetings and this is not a mistake. Take OHIO STATE! |
|||||||
03-07-23 | 76ers v. Wolves | Top | 117-94 | Win | 100 | 12 h 48 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Minnesota 7:30 ET Timberwolves (+) over 76ers-man it is so hard to beat Philadelphia with Embiid going 19-for-19 from the Free Throw line and James Harden at the point turning the ball over just once while dishing out 20 assists and nine rebounds. The 76ers are doing something this season that has been lacking and that is being able to win on the road going 17-12 SU. Minnesota is winning on the road as well off three straight wins at LA, LA and Sacramento. I’d love to have the T’ Wolves here but without Towns Joel could name his score. Sixers are 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings including 4-0 ATS in the last four in Minnesota. Take PHILADELPHIA |
|||||||
03-07-23 | Notre Dame v. Virginia Tech -6.5 | Top | 64-67 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 30 m | Show |
Notre Dame vs Virginia Tech 7:00 ET Hokies (-) over Fighting Irish- The ACC Tournament is in Greensboro, NC which lends no advantage to either side. Virginia Tech is not of the same stature of recent edition but Notre Dame is just dreadful. The Hokies who defeated Duke in the ACC final last season are seeded No. 11 this year while the Fighting Irish are seeded No.14 and have lost eight of their last nine as Mike Brey remains coach for his last game. ND is 4-9 ATS in neutral sites while VT likes to beat up on the little guys and are 20-6 ATS in their last 26 games against teams with a winning percentage below 40%. Add that the favorite is 8-1 ATS in the last nine meetings. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
03-06-23 | San Francisco v. Gonzaga -14 | Top | 73-84 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 39 m | Show |
San Francisco vs Gonzaga 11:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Dons- San Francisco has already won a pair of WCC tourney games including a 93-87 double-overtime win over Santa Clara Saturday night. they are 4-12-1 ATS after scoring 90 points in their previous game and they are 10-23 ATS after a SU win. The Dons must now face the Bulldogs who are the No. 2 seed and a team that they have lost to 26 straight times including twice this season. The beat goes on...take GONZAGA! |
|||||||
03-06-23 | Pelicans +5.5 v. Kings | 108-123 | Loss | -115 | 13 h 14 m | Show | |
New Orleans at Sacramento 10;00 ET Pelicans (+) over Kings- I am really quite surprised that New Orleans with all their injury issues are only two-games under .500 after losing five of their last six. Sacramento who is set to make the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2006 are off a home loss Saturday night to Minnesota. The Pelicans with Brandon Ingram leading the way get it done here. take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
03-06-23 | Hawks +3 v. Heat | Top | 128-130 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show |
Atlanta at Miami 7:30 ET Hawks (+) over Heat- These two clubs met Saturday night in the Magic City and the Heat prevailed 117-109 as they held Atlanta’s lading scorer Trae Young to a season low eight points. He is averaging 26.7 points on the season and I expect him to bounce back with a stellar performance tonight. Miami has won 2-of-3 meetings and I look for the Hawks to even the series here as they are 6-2 ATS after a SU loss. The Heat are 10-25-2 ATS in their last 37 games following a SU win. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Knicks +5.5 v. Celtics | Top | 131-129 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show |
New York at Boston 7:30 ET Knicks (+) overt Celtics- New York is currently on their second eight-game winning streak of the season and their confidence has never been higher. But, there is a difference this time around as Josh hart and Jalen Brunson have been added and are making major contributions on both ends of the floor. Boston bolted out to a 28-point lead and then slept-walked the rest of the game and were overtaken and defeated as well as humiliated 115-105 at home by Brooklyn. Each of the Knicks victories have been by at least 15 points including a 109-94 win at Boston. Take the red-hot...KNICKS! |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Wisconsin -5 v. Minnesota | 71-67 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 38 m | Show | |
Wisconsin at Minnesota 7:30 ET Badgers (-) over Golden Gophers- I can not remember a Wisconsin team that has been in this position before, needing a win and strong run through the Big Ten Tournament to qualify for the Big Dance. They have been very consistent over the years taking pride in having one of the best defenses in the nation. Although they have slipped a bit they still only are allowing just 63.7 PPG but their offense hasn’t picked up any slack at all scoring just 65.0 PPG. The goof here is that Minnesota is one of the worst shooting teams in the country and that includes all aspects including Free Throws where they barely make over 60% (61.7% to be exact). The Golden Gophers just ended a 12-game losing streak with a buzzer beating shot against Rutgers and that is it for them. They shot their load and their season is finished and they know it. Gophers 4-9-1 ATS after a SU win. Take WISCONSIN! |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Northwestern v. Rutgers -5 | 65-53 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 32 m | Show | |
Northwestern at Rutgers 7:30 ET Scarlet Knights (-) over Wildcats- The Scarlet Knights took a big hit Thursday as Big Ten bottom feeder Minnesota upset their karma as they blew a 10-point lead with 1:15 to play. Northwestern who seem like a lock for the NCAA tourney after winning five straight bring their record to 20-7 but have now dropped three straight and need momentum and a confidence builder. The visiting Knights captured a road win 65-63 in the first meeting as the visitor is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings and the Wildcats are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games. The Scarlet Knights are 11-4 ATS at home this season. Take RUTGERS |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Michigan +4.5 v. Indiana | Top | 73-75 | Win | 100 | 9 h 44 m | Show |
Michigan at Indiana 4:30 ET Wolverines (+) over Hoosiers- I knew that it would come down to this game and so did both the Wolverines and Hoosiers. Michigan is on the bubble as they have been all season and all those close losses and overtime defeats will not mean a thing if they do not win somewhere. This would be a great spot for that as No. 15 Indiana is 14-2 SU at home. Wolves 4-0 ATS in their last four road games and the road team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. Take MICHIGAN! |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Suns v. Mavs -113 | 130-126 | Loss | -113 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
Phoenix at Dallas 1:00 ET Mavericks over Suns- Forty percent of Brooklyn’s decimated line-up will be starting on opposite ends of the floor Sunday afternoon as Kevin Durant suits up for the third time as a Sun (they are 2-0 with him) and he’ll be opposed by everyone’s favorite the Mavericks Kyrie Irving who had 40 points on 19-of 26 shooting as Doncic had 12 assists. Can these two share the ball when it comes to crunch time. We will see what we can soon. Dallas lost their first three with the duo playing together and then defeated lowly San Antonio before losing two more and enter this fray after a win over the 76ers who were without Embiid. How, long will we have to wait before Irving says that it is all the fault of Jason Kidd. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
03-05-23 | Illinois v. Purdue -7.5 | Top | 71-76 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 3 m | Show |
Illinois at Purdue 12:30 ET Boilermakers (-) over Fighting Illini- I know that Purdue has won the Big Ten regular season title and will have a double-bye 2hen the conference tourney starts while Illinois is in a log-jam with five other teams tied for second. Purdue is just 3-4 since losing to arch rival Indiana as their 3-point shot has deserted them. The Boilermakers won last year in over-tine as Zach Edey was the difference and I expect more of the same Sunday as the home team is 7-2-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take PURDUE! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Hawks +2 v. Heat | Top | 109-117 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 15 m | Show |
Atlanta at Miami 8:00 ET Hawks (+) over Heat- Miami has a half-game lead over the Hawks as they play the first of back-to-back contests. The Heat have dropped two straight and six of seven after bowing to New York last night. This is the third meeting with these two splitting a pair in Atlanta. The Hawks are 14-18 on the road SU and Miami is 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 home games against teams with losing road records and 9-24-1 ATS in their last 34 home games overall Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Connecticut -2 v. Villanova | 71-59 | Win | 100 | 11 h 28 m | Show | |
Connecticut at Villanova 7:30 ET Huskies over Wildcats-These two will fight like cats and dogs today as they both are playing their best of the season right now. Connecticut of course got off to that great start and were actually ranked No. 1 for about 45-minutes but have won their last four games and in a convincing manner. Villanova hasn’t had the best of years as Jay Wright is surly missed but they have won their last three. The Huskies posted a win but the Wildcats got the money in the first meeting. This game is off campus in Philadelphia and UCONN is 3-0 at neutral sites while Nova is 1-4. Take CONNECTICUT! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Pittsburgh +7 v. Miami-FL | 76-78 | Win | 100 | 10 h 14 m | Show | |
Pittsburgh at Miami-FL 6:30 ET Panthers (+) over Hurricanes- The Hurricanes are in a 3-way tie for the ACC regular season title with the Panthers and Virginia and would seem to have an edge over Pittsburgh as the are 15-1 SU at home. The later got caught in a look-ahead as the Panthers lost at Notre Dame on Wednesday. In the first meeting the Canes were a beaten 1.5-point favorite 71-68. Panthers are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 road games and the road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take PITTSBURGH! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Utah +4.5 v. Colorado | 60-69 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
Utah at Colorado 5:30 ET Utes (+) over Buffaloes- Colorado enters their regular season finale at .500 after three straight losses and they most likely will be without their leading scorer. Utah has not had the kind of season expected and have dropped their last four putting their once secure NCAA berth in jeopardy. The Buffs are 3-9 ATS after an ATS win and 2-6 ATS after a SU loss. The road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Kansas v. Texas -3 | Top | 59-75 | Win | 100 | 8 h 23 m | Show |
Kansas at Texas 4:00 ET Longhorns over Jayhawks- No. 3 Kansas has won the Big-12 regular season title and will be traveling to Austin the face No. 9 Texas. The Longhorns would have had a shot at the title except for their loss a TCU last time out and at Baylor the games before that. The Longhorns are 7-1 ATS in games after a SU loss. In the first meeting the Jayhawks used the home court to advantage and won 88-80. The home team is 30-1 ATS in the last four meetings. Take TEXAS! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Tennessee +2 v. Auburn | 70-79 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 6 m | Show | |
Tennessee at Auburn 2:00 ET Volunteers over Tigers- A win by the Volunteers here would assure them a double-bye for the SEC playoffs and mostly likely get them a third seed in the NCAAs. Auburn should be a bit down-trodden after blowing a late lead to arch-rival Alabama last time out. I always expect good thing from Bruce Pearls but the Tigers are either not that good or just under-achievers. The Volunteers one way or the other it will be the tougher defense that wins here...take TENNESSEE! |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Alabama v. Texas A&M +1 | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 17 h 37 m | Show | |
Alabama at Texas A&M 12:00 ET Aggies (+) over Crimson Tide- Alabama like so often the on the gridiron is the SEC regular season Champion on the hardwood as they finished 15-0 in conference play at home. Texas A&M who is 14-1 at home in SEC action has defeated the Tide four straight time and previous to that Bama had won six straight in the series. The Aggies are locked into the second seed and the underdog is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings. Aggies are 23-9 ATS after a SU win while the Tide is 0-4 after a SU win and have nothing to play for. Take TEXAS A&M! |
|||||||
03-03-23 | Clippers +6.5 v. Kings | 127-128 | Win | 100 | 14 h 39 m | Show | |
LA Clippers at Sacramento 10:00 ET Clippers (+) over Kings- The last time these two met seven days ago the Clippers scored 175 points and lost to the Kings. LA played last night at Golden State and blew an 11-point half-time lead only to get wasted in the second half 70-35 as Russell Westbrook played in his fourth straight losing game. Sacramento has won four straight but the Clippers are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as visitors. Take LA CLIPPERS! |
|||||||
03-03-23 | Grizzlies +5 v. Nuggets | 97-113 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 29 m | Show | |
Memphis at Denver 10:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Nuggets- These two met six days ago in Memphis with the Grizzlies winning by 18 their first of three straight wins. Although, Denver is 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine meeting as hosts they are just 3-7 ATS in the last 10 meetings overall. The Nuggets are 28-4 SU at home and haven’t loss in the Mile High City since December 6. The Griz have to make a move tonight if they are to have any chance to capture the top seed in the West. Take MEMPHIS! |
|||||||
03-03-23 | Pelicans +5.5 v. Warriors | Top | 99-108 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 44 m | Show |
New Orleans at Golden State 10:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Warriors- This will be the third meeting between these two clubs where the Warriors have played the previous night. Last night they defeated the Clippers as an underdog and now they are in the favorites role. The Pelicans are of course without Zion Williamson but Golden State will be without three mainstays. The trends and stats back the Warriors but shit happens in NBA games and I hope it happens here. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Washington State -120 v. Washington | Top | 93-84 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
Washington State at Washington 11:00 ET Cougars over Huskies- Now, let us look at this match-up closely. Here is Washington State at 15-15 on the road against their arc rival Washington who is 16-14 (not much difference so far) and favored. Here’s the rum, the Cougars are just 3-8 SU and ATS on the road and the Huskies are 12-5 SU at home. Granted State has won their last five to bring themselves to .500 and the Huskies have lost five of the last seven meetings. With the road team 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings I’ll follow that trend. Take WASHINGTON STATE! |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Clippers -3.5 v. Warriors | Top | 91-115 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 15 m | Show |
LA Clippers at Golden State 10 ET Clippers (-) over Warriors- These clubs have been playing a a mirror image of each other the past three games as the Clippers are 0-3 and the Warriors are 3-0. So of course, I expect each to reverse it’s most current trends and for Los Angeles to show up and take it to Golden State. Adding to the reverse trend is that they have split four games this season with the home team winning each encounter. This time around the visitor should prevail as the Clippers are 7-3 ATS in their last 20 road games and the Warriors are 1-4 ATS in their last four games against teams with winning records. Take LA CLIPPERS! |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Purdue v. Wisconsin +4.5 | 63-61 | Win | 100 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
Purdue at Wisconsin 9:00 ET Badgers (+) over Boilermakers- Purdue who spent more time as No. 1 in the country than any other team has dropped four of their last six and fallen to No. 5 but still are guaranteed a share of the Big Ten title. Part of the problem for the Boilermakers who have the most intimating inside game with 7-4 Zach Edey is three point shooting where they have fallen short. For Wisconsin any kind of shooting has been a nightmare. The Badgers are 5-10 since their six game winning streak ended in early January. The home team is 7-2-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings and the Badgers swept both games last season. Purdue is 0-3-1 ATS in their last four road games and Whisky is 4-0 ATS after a straight up loss. Take WISCONSIN! |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Pacers v. Spurs +6 | 99-110 | Win | 100 | 9 h 53 m | Show | |
Indiana at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Pacers- San Antonio just ended a 16-game losing streak with a wire-to-wire win over Utah winning for first time on the road since mid December. The Spurs defeated the Pacers in the second game of the season ans it has all been down hill ever since. Indiana is 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games and the Spurs are 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games against teams with rod records under .400. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
03-02-23 | Michigan +5 v. Illinois | 87-91 | Win | 100 | 8 h 47 m | Show | |
Michigan at Illinois 7:00 ET Wolverines (+) over Fighting Illini- This Illinois team is probably the most over-rated basketball team in college basketball (except probably for the Tar Heels) and yet they are 19-10 on the season which includes 14-2 SU at home. I don’t know why I say this because they are a stellar 17-12 ATS on the year. This match-up has the Wolverines trying to move off the bubble while the Illini ar4 fighting to stay away from it. Since Juwan Howard took over at Michigan they have yet to defeat Illinois and are 0-5 SU and 0-5 ATS. The Blue Maze are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games while Illinois is 1-4 ATS in their last five. Take MICHIGAN! |
|||||||
03-01-23 | Pelicans +1.5 v. Blazers | 121-110 | Win | 100 | 13 h 4 m | Show | |
New Orleans at Portland 10:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Trailblazers- When you hot you’re hot when you’re not you’re not as Damian Lillard when from a season high 71 points to his lowest point total in over a month in Portland’s 123-105 loss at Golden State last night. With this point spread being so small I expect him have tempered off a bit as the Pelicans have dropped their last four games and yet are a half game ahead of the Blazers for the final play-in spot in the West. Portland is 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 following a SU loss and just 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight home games. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
03-01-23 | Penn State +4 v. Northwestern | 68-65 | Win | 100 | 11 h 43 m | Show | |
Penn State at Northwestern 9:00 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Wildcats- Northwestern who has made the NCAA Tournament only once in school history in 2017 and with wins at Purdue and at Michigan State believe that they have done enough to qualify. The problem with is that you can never trust what the selection committee may be thinking. Penn State fell to Rutgers Sunday after building a 19-point second half lead and are 12-4 ATS after a SU loss.

Oklahoma at Kansas State 8:00 ET Sooners (+) over Wildcats- No. 11 Kansas State has been a surprise to many in the Big-12 but not so much to Oklahoma who handed the Wildcats one of their conference losses 79-65 on Valentines Day. K.State is 15-1 SU at home and 12-4 ATS. The Sooners will only reach the NCAA tourney by winning the Big-12 playoff which seems unlikely based on what they have done this season. But, they have built confidence with a road with at Iowa State Saturday and look to cause trouble for the Cats here as they are 13-6 ATS after a SU win. The underdog is 11-5-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Take OKLAHOMA! |

Brooklyn at New York 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Knicks- The surging New York Knicks have won six straight including an impressive 109-94 win over NBA leading Boston along with five other playoff bound teams. Brooklyn who at one time was the Vegas betting favorite to win it all is scrambling every night to try and post wins. within one year the Nets jettisoned three future Hall of Fame players and are just a shell of what they were. But, when they have now is a group that is out to prove that they belong and are looking for a measure of respect by playing hard from start to finish. The nets are now 5-1 ATS after a loss and 11-5 ATS overall. Take BROOKLYN! |

Cleveland at Boston 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over Celtics- These two combatants have met twice this season with both meetings being being played by Nov. 2 with the Cavaliers prevailing in both encounters. Boston are off their season low in 3-point shooting in their loss in New York on Monday and only took 14 free throws compared to the Knicks 34 attempts.

Maryland at Ohio State 7:00 ET Buckeyes (+) over Terrapins- No. 21 Maryland is 11-7 in Big Ten action including a stellar 10-0 at home which means that they have won just one of eight on the road. Ohio State just won a game at home on Sunday after losing nine straight and 14 of 15 overall. Finally with a win under their belt the Buckeyes are feeling better about themselves and look to ambush the Terrapins who defeated them 80-73 in early January.

Portland at Golden State 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Warriors- Portland’s Damian Lillard is coming off one of the best performances of all-time scoring 71 points in the most efficient manner going 14-for-14 from the free throw line as well as 13-22 from 3-point range. The 13 3-pointers are second only to Klay Thompson’s 14 made in 2018. Returning to his Oakland roots I expect more of the same tonight (of course not as much) because when you are hot as he is your confidence stays at the highest of levels. Take PORTLAND! |

02-28-23 | Wolves +7 v. Clippers | 108-101 | Win | 100 | 12 h 4 m | Show | |
Minnesota at LA Clippers 10:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Clippers- The Clippers have scored 299 points in their last two games and have zero wins to show for it and maybe if they had played defense at least once when the opposition had they ball they might have eked out one win. Minnesota has three in-a row themselves as they allowed Golden State to erase a 13-point fourth quarter lead losing 109-104 as they missed 10 of 21 free throws (these are pros). The T’wolves are 7-2 ATS in their lat nine games after a loss and are 10-4 ATS against teams with winning records. LA is just 2-5 ATS after allowing 125 or more points and the do play very little defense. Take MINNESOTA! |

The Wildcats are 3-9 ATS after SU win.

Washington is 0-2 since the break and are 10th in the NBA playoff seeding while Atlanta is 8th. This is the first of four meetings between the these clubs and the Hawks were 3-1 last season and have won six straight meetings at home. But, the Wizards are 7-3 in their last 10 road games while the Hawks are 16-35 ATS in their last 52 games following a SU win. Take WASHINGTON! |

Virginia returns home where they are 13-1 SU on the season and have dominated Clemson winning 12 of the last 13 meetings. The Tigers are off their best performance of the year defeating NC State by 25-points and will not come close to that tonight as they are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games.

Baylor at Oklahoma State 9:00 ET Cowboys (+) over Bears- Boy does this line look bogus or what! Here is No. 9 Baylor off a huge comeback win over Texas on Saturday. Oklahoma State on the other hand is moving in the opposite direction at this time having lost their last four and seem to have played themselves off the bubble. The Bears won the first meeting easily 74-58 as a 7.5-point favorite their only cover in the last five meetings between the two. The Cowboys are 11-4 SU in their last 15 home games and the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

Boston at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Celtics- There is no doubt that Boston is the best team in the East if not the entire NBA but nobody can win them all. New York has taken a positive turn winning 10 of 14 since the acquisition of Jalen Brunson who teaming up with Julius Randle has made the Knicks offense more formidable. The Knicks have played their best against better competition as they are 9-3-1 ATS against teams winning 60% or more of their games. Take NEW YORK! |

Miami at Philadelphia 7:30 ET Heat (+) over 76ers- Can the 76ers recover from their emotional loss to Boston this weekend is the question here. Joel Embiid hoisted a 3-point game tying shot that launched a hair late and his 75-foot shot was negated. They are professional athletes who are suppose to come to play everyday but we all know that doesn’t happen all often as it should. Miami has dropped four straight games two of which were played before the All-Star break and the last three have come on the road and they are just 1-8 ATS in their last nine games. The Heat are expected to do better and now is the time to start as they look forward to a deep playoff run. Take MIAMI! |

LA Clippers at Denver 10;00 ET Clippers (+) over Nuggets- The LA Clippers rested Saturday after doing what many would say is not feasible Friday night by scoring 175 points and losing the game to Sacramento. This was with the Clippers two best Kawhi Leonard and Paul George scoring 44 and 34 points respectively. Denver had their four-game winning streak stopped last night in Memphis and were never in it as they trailed the Grizzlies by 28 points at the half. The Nuggets are starting to feel the affects of missing players to injuries as Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon have pulled up lame. Turnover machine Russell Westbrook had 17 points and 14 assists alone with seven turnovers in his Clippers debut Friday. The Nuggets have won all three meetings this season and are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings but are 1-6 ATS on Sundays. LA is 4-1 ATS on the road and 8-3 ATS with one days rest.

02-26-23 | Wolves +3 v. Warriors | Top | 104-109 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 3 m | Show |
Minnesota at Golden State 7:30 ET Timberwolves (+) over Warriors- Sometimes when you see a match-up and look at the point spread and things just don’t seem right. This is what I see here as the NBA defending champions are a meager favorite at home against a team that has won just 11 of 28 road games. I’m speaking of Minnesota who has also lost their last two games both at home and visit Golden State who only seems to be able to win games at home where they are 23-7 SU. You should also consider that the Wolves are 0-5 ATS in their last five trips to the bay area and this price is way to cheap considering the history of these two clubs. But, the Timberwolves are 7-1 ATS after a loss and 21-8 ATS on Sundays. The Warriors who are off a 116-101 home win over the Rockets are 1-6-1 ATS after a win of 10 points or more. Take MINNESOTA! |

Sacramento trailed by 14 point in the 4th quarter before sending the game into double-overtime and are on track to make the playoffs and have a winning r3cord for the first time in 16 years. Oklahoma City who has dropped their last two games at Phoenix and Utah are a stellar 18-11 ATS at home and are an amazing 30-7 ATS on Sundays as well as 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games after a SU loss. The Kings are 1-4 ATS after a SU win and 0-4 ATS playing on one days rest. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

Boston is just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games against teams with winning records.

New Orleans at New York 7:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Knicks- It is kind of surprising that this will be the first meeting of the season between these two clubs and they both need wins for playoff seeding. New York has picked up the pace winning their last four and nine of their past 13 games. The Knicks are currently in the last guaranteed playoff spot and a 1.5 games in front of the Heat. The Pelicans are in a 3-way tie for the seventh playoff spot and they are 1.5 games behind Dallas and two-games behind the LA Clippers. New York is just 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games after a road trip of seven days or more. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

Virginia at North Carolina 6:00 ET Tar Heels (-) over Cavaliers- The ole gray mare ain’t what she used to be! Second year coach Hubert Davis is finding it difficult to win without Roy Williams leftovers. No. 6 Virginia who is not known for their shooting but their defense missed 17 of 21 attempt beyond the arc in their 63-48 loss as they were held to a season low in points and shooting 32% form the field. The Cavaliers didn’t shoot all that well in the first meeting (-4.5) this season in a 65-58 cover. The home team and favorite have dominated this series but that was when the Tar Heels could play as they are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 games against teams with winning records. take VIRGINIA! |

Auburn at Kentucky 4:00 ET Tigers and Wildcats- Auburn coach Bruce Pearl is supposed to be one of the better college basketball coaches in the nation and yet his Tigers have lost to the Wildcats in Kentucky 19 straight times and are 2-50 SU lifetime in Rupp Arena. (As my dearly departed from Larry Ness would say ‘How bout dat!’ The Tigers have lost 4-of-6 and are in need of a quick turnaround. Still, already with nine losses Kentucky is now cut from their usual cloth as they ranked 114th on both offense and defense and that doesn’t make the grade. The Tigers defense will show up as they allow 10 less points per game than do the Wildcats and that will spell the difference.Take AUBURN! |

Mississippi State has won six of eight after a 4-game losing streak and are 10-4 SU at home.

The Bears have dropped a pair after having won 10-of-11 games and dropped a 76-71 decision in Austin three weeks ago.

Oklahoma State has dropped three straight after winning five in-a-row and so go streaks. Cowboys coach Mike Boynton says the loss of guard Avery Anderson III and big man Moussa Cisse has hurt team chemistry. The Wildcats are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games against teams with winning records while the Cowboys are 1-4 ATS against teams with winning records and I’ll add that the road team is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings.

Oklahoma at Iowa State 12:00 ET Cyclones (+) over Sooners- What has happened to the Cyclones? After posting early impressive victories they have dropped four of five and six of the last eight including their last two at Kansas State and Texas and return home to host Oklahoma. The Sooners haven’t done any better as they have lost six of their last seven and are off a home drubbing by Texas Tech. with only three Big-12 wins the Sooners have one shinning moment a 24-point win over No. 1 Alabama in the Big-12/SEC showdown and have lost their next four games by a total of 75 points. Iowa State nipped OK 63-60 in Lawton but is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games. It is time for the Sooners to come and play and give a struggling club all that it cam handle. Take OKLAHOMA! |

02-24-23 | Nets +2.5 v. Bulls | 87-131 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 51 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Chicago 8:00 ET Nets (+) over Bulls- Once again I have the thoughts that there is more than meets the eye when it comes to these two squads. Brooklyn of course is just a shadow of what is to be expected from them. Since October the Nets have jettisoned James Harden, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant all three future Hall of Fame players. Nic Claxton is now their leading scorer at 12.8 PPG and they also replaced coach Steve Nash with no longer interim coach with Jacque Vaughn. Chicago who also expected better showing have lost six straight and haven’t won since February 6 against San Antonio. The Bulls won twice over the Nets this season and yet are home under all these changes they are less than a bucket favorites. That just doesn’t seem right. Take BROOKLYN! |

Miami at Milwaukee 7:30 ET Heat (+) over Bucks- There is something going on here that is not fully known to the general public and kept away from the media as well. I am sure that Giannis Antetokounmpo will be sidelined along with a number other other Bucks that will be limited in the play. Miami who was defeated by the Nets before the break were without four of their mainstays who will most likely play tonight. This is the fourth meeting of the season and the Heat have won both at home with the Bucks prevailing 123-115 in the Brew City. The Bucks have won 12 in-a-row and 14 of their last 15 and they are a meager favorite here which spells trouble. This price is way too low and the Bucks should show little game here. Heat are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take MIAMI! |

Indiana ended a five game losing streak before the break and had dropped 8-of-10 but have plenty of talent to keep this one competitive.

Florida who has been disappointing this season will be without leading scorer, rebounder and shot blocker Colin Castleton and he will be gone the rest of he season.

Iowa at Northwestern 6:30 ET Hawkeyes over Wildcats- This just looks wrong to me. Northwestern has a record that is two games better overall then Iowa and one-game better in Bug Ten action, yet they have been deemed an underdogs at home. But, the Hawkeyes have won three in-a-row and five of six after an 0-3 Big Ten start. The opening favorite is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings and they number say it will happen again. The Wildcats play a tougher brand of defense but the Hawkeyes can put the ball in the hoop averaging 81 PPG ranking 18th. Take IOWA! |

Iowa State at Kansas State Cyclones Wildcats- believe it or not the Big-12 is one of the better basketball conferences in the nation and teams like these are among conference leaders because of the great balance. Both of these clubs have fallen off their quick pace as Kansas State has lost five of seven and the Cyclones haven’t won two in-a-row since early January. Iowa State has struggled on the road but as they say defense travels well in big games and this is big for both sides. The road team and the under are both 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

Texas Tech at West Virginia 12:00 ET Mountaineers (-) over Red Raiders- There are so many reasons to on West Virginia I get excited about it all and can’t wait for this game to start. Well, that’s one side of it, the Red Raiders enter Morgantown have won four straight since a loss at home the the Mountaineers beating three ranked teams in Iowa State, Kansas State and Texas and they must be feeling pretty good about themselves where as UWV has dropped there last two at Baylor and Texas. Tech is 1-6 SU on the road and 2-8 in their last 10 meetings as visitors. But, the thing that bothers me is the behavior of a number of the Mountaineers talented young club losses their composure. Still, Huggins should have his team ready to mug the Raiders. Take WEST VIRGINIA! |

LA Clippers at Phoenix 10:00 ET Clippers (+) over Suns- Phoenix who has struggled through a 1-9 streak in January made the biggest of all deals getting Kevin Durant from the Nets and are waiting for him to get healthy after the All-star break.

02-15-23 | Kentucky v. Mississippi State -2.5 | 71-68 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
Kentucky at Mississippi State 8:30 ET Bulldogs (+) over Wildcats- Tings change...and a once proud basketball program finds themselves struggling and losing respect from the odds-makers and the pollsters as Kentucky is not ranked and with nine losses where they will be in the post season is a question. most likely the NCAAs but they will be lucky to be seeded anywhere. They have dropped their last two and the second at Georgia while the Bulldogs are chomping for that bid and have won their last five but the Wildcats have been without two starters not that should matter the way Calipari recruits. There is something and more than just something missing with this Kentucky team as they are 8-18 ATS on the road and 6-13 ATS against winning teams. The hungry Bulldogs are 6-0 ATS in their last six overall and the favorite is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

Cleveland at Philadelphia 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over 76ers- Well when you are hot the odds makers will take notice and they realize that Cleveland has seven straight and have taken no prisoners in the process. So, why should they be favored on the road at Philadelphia against a team that has a three-game advantage in the loss column. The Cavaliers are just 11-16 ATS on the road and the 76ers are 22-8 SU at home without the points. This has to be CLEVELAND! |

Alabama at Tennessee 7:00 ET Volunteers over Crimson Tide- The is No.1 and they should be as they have probably played the best basketball overall among their peers. After a shattering loss at Oklahoma Alabama bounced back with a crushing win over Vanderbilt 101-44 as the shot 59% from the floor and then posted 10 and 29-points wins over LSU and Florida before taking down rival Auburn 77-69. Tennessee who handled Texas the day after the Tide loss has gone in the opposite direction losing 3-of-4 going 0-4 ATS with their win coming over Auburn as 46-43. If the tides and time have worked for us the Volunteers should be ready to play.

Washington at Portland 10:00 ET Wizards (+) over Trailblazers- How do you or how does anyone stop Damion Lillard if he can be contained at all. Bombs away as Lillard was throwing in shot not from 30-feet but from forty feet and hitting nothing but net. Can this type of shooting continue...I doubt it. The Wizards are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games and are 41-18-2 ATS playing with no rest. Portland is 1-4-1 ATS in their last six home games. Take WASHINGTON! |

Sacramento at Phoenix 9:00 ET Kings (+) over Suns- Phoenix made perhaps the best of all NBA trades by picking up Kevin Durant and it is all Kyrie Irving’s fault. KD has been hurt and although he will help the Suns eventually but he will not be suiting up to play until after the All-Star break. This is the second meeting of the season and the Suns took the first one 122-117 in Sacramento in November. The Kings who have led the Pacific since Jan. 2 after having finished last a year ago and are 4-0 ATS in their last four trips to Phoenix. Take SACRAMENTO! |

Kansas at Oklahoma State 9:00 ET Cowboys (+) over Jayhawks- the cowboys know that they can play with Kansas as they took them to task earlier in the season holding a 15-points halftime lead before bowing 67-65. Kansas was No. 3 at the time and that doesn’t bother Oklahoma State as they took down No. 11 Iowa State 64-56 in Ames last Saturday. Then Cowboys are 11-2 SU at home and the home team is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take OKLAHOMA STATE! |

Michigan at Wisconsin 9:00 ET Wolverines (+) over Badgers- One of the biggest jokes being played on the college basketball fan is that Wisconsin van play basketball and will make a run at the NCAAS Tourney. But, I have news for you all, they are going anywhere meaningful. The Badgers are not a very good basketball team and last weak blew a 17-point lead to a dog like Nebraska. They ranked 331 in points scored and 317 in shooting percentage. Take MICHIGAN! |

Creighton at Providence 7:00 ET Bluejays (-) over Friars- Creighton opened the season with six straight victories and then hit a wall and lost their next six and have now won eight straight in Big East play and is moving up the charts. Not so much for Providence who is off a loss to Connecticut and has dropped 2 of 3 while splitting their last eight. The Bluejays are feeling it and are 9-3 ATS on the road against winning teams. The Friars have little depth and their bench was out-scored 23-4 against lowly St. Johns. Take CREIGHTON! |
