11-23-19 | Nebraska -5 v. Maryland | 54-7 | Win | 100 | 24 h 51 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Nebraska -5 -109 A rough patch has dragged the Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-6) below .500. Saturday, they’ll have a chance to regain some momentum when they take on the Maryland Terrapins (3-7). After a narrow victory over Northwestern, Nebraska has lost four straight. While the losses to good Minnesota and #14 Wisconsin teams weren’t close, the two losses to Indiana and Purdue were by seven points or fewer. Nebraska has scored 31 points or more in half their games this year. On average, the Cornhuskers are scoring 26 points per game on 417 yards of offense while allowing 30 points per game on 413 yards. Nebraska quarterback Adrian Martinez has thrown for at least 200 yards in each of Nebraska’s last three games. Martinez has racked up 1,712 yards, eight touchdowns, and seven picks with his arm, and added another 488 yards and six touchdowns with his legs. After a hot 2-0 start that included wins over Howard and #21 Syracuse, Maryland has lost seven of their last eight games. The worst of the bunch was a 59-0 throttling at the hands of #12 Penn State. Maryland has scored 17 points or fewer in six games. On average, the Terrapins are scoring 28 points per game on 359 yards of offense while allowing 34 points per game on 442 yards. In each of Maryland’s last three games, they’ve failed to have a 100-yard passer. |

11-23-19 | Louisiana Tech +7 v. UAB | 14-20 | Win | 100 | 29 h 19 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Louisiana Tech +7 -115 The Louisiana Tech Bulldogs (8-2) will have a chance to separate themselves atop the Conference USA standings on Saturday night when they go on the road to play the UAB Blazers (7-3). Before last week’s loss to Marshall, Louisiana Tech had won eight in a row. The team’s only other loss came to #10 Texas. Before the Marshall loss, the Bulldogs had scored 43 points or more in five out of six contests. On average, the Bulldogs are scoring 35 points per game on 457 yards of offense while allowing 24 points per game on 392 yards. Louisiana Tech comes into this contest as seven-point dogs because they lost quarterback Aaron Allen to a hand injury last week. Allen was filling in for starting quarterback J’Mar Smith. However, the Bulldogs can lean on the legs of Justin Henderson, who’s rushed for 799 yards and 15 touchdowns this year. UAB defeated UTEP by a score of 37-10 last week, but lost two straight before that game. After a 30-7 loss to Tennessee, the Blazers fell to Southern Miss by a score of 37-2. On average, the Blazers are scoring 26 points per game on 369 yards of offense while allowing 19 points per game on 267 yards. In his two games at quarterback for UAB, Dylan Hopkins has thrown for just 103 and 96 yards. Hopkins has thrown for two touchdowns and three picks. |

11-23-19 | Texas State +30 v. Appalachian State | 13-35 | Win | 100 | 22 h 41 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Texas State +30 -109 The #24 Appalachian State Mountaineers (9-1) will earn their 10th win of the season if they can take down the Texas State Bobcats (3-7) today. Texas State is getting 30 points in this matchup, and it’s largely due to the fact that they’ve won only three games this season. However, one of those wins came in a recent contest against South Alabama. Texas State scored 30 points on their way to victory. On average, the Bobcats are scoring 19 points per game on 327 yards of offense while allowing 33 points per game on 414 yards. Tyler Vitt has taken over at quarterback for the Bobcats and is getting more comfortable. He threw for 263 yards in a loss to Troy and 373 yards in a win over South Alabama. The Mountaineers hold the best record of any Sun Belt team, but they’ve shown some vulnerability. To close October, Appalachian State faced off against Georgia Southern and suffered their first loss of the season. On average, the Mountaineer are scoring 38 points per game on 425 yards of offense while allowing 20 points per game on 330 yards. Appalachian State has allowed 24 points or more in five games this season. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Liberty +17 -109 The Virginia Cavaliers (7-3) look like the most likely opponent for Clemson in the ACC Championship Game. Saturday night, the Cavaliers will be taking on the Liberty Flames (6-4). Liberty started of the year with a pair of losses to #22 Syracuse and the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns. Since then, the Flames have been very good, earning a record of 6-2 with impressive wins over Buffalo, New Mexico, and New Mexico State. Liberty has scored 59 points or more on three occasions. On average, the Flames are scoring 33 points per game on 443 yards of offense while allowing 27 points per game on 424 yards. Liberty is led by the arm of quarterback Stephen Calvert, who’s thrown for 2,941 yards, 23 touchdowns, and just three interceptions. Calvert has thrown for at least 300 yards in six games this year. Virginia has won three of their last four games, giving themselves a chance to reach a conference championship game. However, they’ve given up 28 points or more in each of their last three contests. On average, the Cavaliers are scoring 31 points per game on 369 yards of offense while allowing 23 points on 316 yards. The running game has been lacking for Virginia. Quarterback Bryce Perkins leads the team with 493 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on the ground. |

50* Powerhouse Play on East Carolina +8 -110 After pulling off one of the more shocking upsets in recent memory, the Evansville Purple Aces (3-1) have earned a winning record through four games. Tonight, the Purple Aces will go up against the East Carolina Pirates (1-3). The players in the Evansville locker room won’t soon forget their victory on the road against #1 Kentucky 10 days ago. Since that win, the Purple Aces have defeated IU-Kokomo and lost to SMU by two. Two of Evansville’s three wins have come by four points or fewer. On average, the Purple Aces are scoring 73 points while allowing 67.3 points per game. After DeAndre Williams, who’s scoring 17.8 points per game for the Purple Aces, no other Evansville player is averaging more than 11.5 points per game. East Carolina’s lone win of the season came in the opener against the VMI Keydets. Since then, the Pirates have fallen to Navy, Appalachian State, and Liberty. However, two of those losses came by six points or fewer. On average, the Pirates are scoring 64 points while allowing 68.8 points per game. East Carolina has a proven scorer in forward Jayden Gardner. While hitting 56% of his field-goal attempts, Gardner is scoring 20 points per game in addition to his 9.3 rebounds per contest. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Utah -5½ -110 Both the Ohio Bobcats (3-2) and Utah Utes (3-1) can boast winning records at this early stage of the college basketball season. These two clubs will face off this evening in Utah. Ohio won their first three games of the season before dropping two straight to Villanova and Baylor. Both of those losses were by a margin of 23 points or more. Ohio is now set for their fourth road game of the season. On average, the Bobcats are scoring 68.2 points while allowing 65.8 points per game. Against Baylor last night, Ohio could only muster two double-digit scorers. Lunden McDay put up 16 while Jason Preston added another 12 points. Meanwhile, Baylor had three players with at least 10 points, led by Jared Butler’s 19-point performance. Before suffering a disappointing loss to Coastal Carolina, Utah kicked the season off with three-straight wins over Nevada, Mississippi Valley State, and Minnesota. The Utes showed their offensive prowess with 143 points in their second game of the season. On average, the Utes are scoring 88 points while allowing 67.8 points per game. Timmy Allen has proven himself to be a dangerous scorer for Utah by averaging 20.8 points in addition to his 8.5 rebounds per game. Both Gach is adding another 14.5 points per contest. |

11-22-19 | Hawks v. Pistons -6 | Top | 103-128 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Pistons -6 -110 The Hawks (4-10) and Pistons (4-10) will put their identical records on the line for a matchup this evening in Detroit. Atlanta enters this evening’s game as losers of four in a row, three of which were on the road. However, it’s been a tough schedule for the Hawks recently, as they’ve dropped contests against the Suns, Clippers, Lakers, and Bucks. The more worrying aspect of that losing streak is that Atlanta allowed at least 122 points in each game. On average, the Hawks are scoring 107.6 points while allowing 116.9 points per game. Trae Young leads Atlanta with his 26.8 points and 8.6 assists per game, but he’s also turning the ball over 4.8 times a game. Beyond Young, no Hawks player is averaging more than 17 points a game. Since a 122-102 win over the Knicks, the Pistons have lost five straight. However, four of those five losses were on the road, and the Pistons will be at home tonight. On the bright side, Detroit allowed no more than 120 points in any of those losses while scoring at least 106 points of their own on four occasions. On average, the Pistons are scoring 107.3 points while allowing 112 points per game. As Blake Griffin gets back into the swing of the NBA season, the Pistons have four players who are scoring at least 17 points a night. Andre Drummond has led the charge thus far, averaging 18.6 points and 16.8 rebounds per game. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on IUPU Ft Wayne +26 -109 The #10 Ohio State Buckeyes (4-0) are set to host their fifth-straight home game of the season with the Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons (2-4) coming to town. Fort Wayne has already racked up four losses and an 0-3 away record, but they’ve also won two of their last five and are getting 26 points tonight against the Buckeyes. Two of Fort Wayne’s four losses have come by just four points or fewer, including a 79-78 loss to SE Missouri State. On average, the Mastodons are scoring 77.8 points while allowing 76.5 points per game. Three scorers power the Fort Wayne offense. While Brian Patrick and Jarred Godfrey lead the way with 15.5 points per game each, Matt Holba is adding another 13.8 points per game while hitting 42.5% of his threes. The Buckeyes have ripped off four wins in a row to get the season started, all of which have come at home. However, Ohio State has allowed at least 51 points in every contest while they’ve scored more than 76 points of their own just once. On average, the Buckeyes are scoring 75.5 points while allowing 53.5 points per game. 26 points is a lot to be giving up for a team that only has three players scoring more than 10 points a game, none of which are hitting 12 points per game. |

50* Powerhouse Play on North Texas +7 -110 In a late afternoon game, the North Texas Mean Green (2-3) are set to host the Rhode Island Rams (3-1). Only a 73-55 loss to Maryland has kept Rhode Island from a flawless record, but all three wins have come at home while their lone loss of the season was on the road. The Rams have allowed at least 65 points in every game this season. On average, the Rams are scoring 73.5 points and allowing 70.5 points per game. Rhode Island is led by the 17.3 points per game of Fatts Russell, but only he and Jeff Dowtin are scoring more than 11 points per game for the Rams. And none of Rhode Island’s top three scorers are hitting more than 42.3% of their shots from the field. North Texas has book-ended a three-game losing streak with wins over Edmond Trition and North Carolina A&T. Although the Mean Green have a losing record overall, they’ve earned a record of 2-1 at home. On average, the Mean Green are scoring 61.8 points and allowing 56.2 points per game. Led by the 11.4 points per game of Umoja Gibson, North Texas has five players scoring at least 7.6 points per game. Zachary Simmons is averaging 7.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Suns -4 -110 With only two games on the NBA’s Thursday slate, the late offering will feature the Pelicans (5-9) and Suns (7-6) in Phoenix. Although Phoenix hasn’t been able to keep up their form after a great start to the season, they’re still 5-4 at home. The Suns have lost three of their last four, but only failed to score at least 115 points in one of those games. Phoenix has also been very good against weaker competition, as the majority of their losses have come against future playoff teams. On average, the Suns are scoring 115 points and allowing 110.4 points per game. Devin Booker has been on an All-Star level for most of this season. Booker leads the team with 25.4 points per game while adding 5.9 assists. Ricky Rubio leads Phoenix with 8.1 assists per game in addition to his 12.5 points per contest. Although they’re still not yet at full strength, the Pelicans have managed to win three of their last four games. However, all three wins were in New Orleans and the lone loss in that stretch was an away game at Miami. On average, the Pelicans are scoring 115.6 points and allowing 118.9 points per game. Over New Orleans’ last seven games, a Pelican has scored more than 27 points just once. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Connecticut -3 -109 The Buffalo Bulls (2-1) and UConn Huskies (2-1) will no longer share identical records after they go head to head this evening. After falling by five points to Dartmouth to open the season, Buffalo took down Nazareth and Harvard. In their two wins, the Bull scored at least 88 points. Against Dartmouth, Buffalo could manage only 63 points. On average, the Bulls are scoring 86.7 points and allowing 72 points per game. In that Dartmouth game, Buffalo fell too far behind in a 33-26 first half. The Bulls only received five points from their bench in that contest, all of which came from Ronaldo Segu. UConn will play their fourth-straight home game this evening after taking on Sacred Heart, Saint Joe’s, and Florida. The nine-point loss to St. Joseph is the only blemish on an otherwise impressive UConn resume at this point in the young season. On average, the Huskies are scoring 79.3 points while allowing 74 points per game. Christian Vital has been great throughout the first three games of the season. Thus far, Vital is averaging 19.3 points and nine rebounds per game while hitting 35% of his threes. Three other Huskies are scoring 12.7 points or more per game. |

A grand total of two points have kept the Chanticleers from a perfect record through four games.

On average, the Chanticleers are scoring 84.3 points and allowing 70.5 points per game. Five Coastal Carolina players are scoring 11 points or more per game.

50* Powerhouse Play on Portland State -6 -110 An in-state rivalry game pits the Portland Pilots (3-1) up against the Portland State Vikings (1-2). This evening’s game will take place on the Vikings’ home floor, where they’re 1-0 on the season. Only a 10-point loss to USC has kept the Pilots from an undefeated record through four games. After starting with a big win over Willamette, Portland has earned comfortable victories over San Jose State and Maine in their two most recent games. On average, the Pilots are scoring 73.5 points and allowing 57.8 points per game. JoJo Walker and Isaiah White lead the Pilots in scoring.

Tonight, the Broncos will play host to the BYU Cougars (3-1). The Cougars will play just their second road game of the season after barely taking down Houston in a 72-71 contest five days ago.

Both of those games resulted in losses, the latter of which came by a margin of nine points. On average, the Broncos are scoring 87 points and allowing 74.7 points per game. Guard Derrick Alston is the leading scorer for Boise State with 25 points per game. RJ Williams is perhaps the most important Bronco thus far with his 16 points and 11 rebounds per game. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Hornets +4 -105 The Nets (5-8) won’t be at full strength this evening when they host the Hornets (6-8) in Brooklyn, yet they’re giving four points to the visitors. Charlotte isn’t tearing up the NBA, but they’re a decent 3-4 on the road. Most recently, the Hornets have won two of their last three. Before losing to the Raptors, Charlotte defeated Detroit by three and New York by one. On average, the Hornets are scoring 105.9 points per game while allowing 113.6 points per game. Charlotte likes to score by committee. Of the five players averaging 11 points or more, Devonte Graham leads the way with his 18.3 points per game. Terry Rozier is adding another 16.4 points per game. After a huge offseason, it looks like the Nets will have to wait until next year to truly reap the rewards. A mediocre start to the season has gotten worse as Brooklyn has dropped four of their last five. Over that stretch, Brooklyn was held to 93 points or fewer twice. On average, the Nets are scoring 114.5 points and allowing 118.5 points per game. Kyrie Irving is set to miss his third-straight game, which means the Nets will struggle to replace his 28.5 points per contest. They’ll aim to do so with Spencer Dinwiddie, who’s averaging 18.5 points per game. |

On average, the Kings are scoring 104.4 points while allowing 108.4 points per game. Buddy Hield has proven himself as an NBA scorer after his prolific college basketball career. On average, Hield is scoring 19.9 points per game to lead the Kings. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on New Mexico +1 -110 Both the New Mexico Lobos and UTEP Miners are undefeated. That will change for one of these teams after tonight’s game between the two on UTEP’s home floor. New Mexico has kicked the year off with four-straight wins, and the most impressive part has been their offensive consistency. In each of those four contests, the Lobos have scored between 90 and 97 points while holding every opponent to 80 points or fewer. On average, the Lobos are scoring 93 points while allowing 74.8 points per game. Guard JaQuan Kyle leads the Lobos with his 19 points per game, much of which has come on the back of his 52.4% shooting percentage from beyond the arc. Kyle is also adding 6.3 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game. Four other New Mexico players are averaging at least 11.8 points per game. UTEP has won all three of its games played thus far, which came against New Mexico Highlands, New Mexico State, and Eastern New Mexico. The Miners were held to just 65 points against New Mexico State. On average, the Miners are scoring 76.3 points per game while allowing 59 point per game.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Chiefs -4 -110 Tonight’s Monday Night Football offering will have a special twist as the Chiefs (6-4) and Chargers (4-6) will take the field in the Estadio Azteca for a game in Mexico City. After starting the year off with four wins in a row, Kansas City has now lost four of their last six.

On average, the Chiefs are scoring 28 points per game on 419 yards of offense while allowing 24 points per game on 393 yards. Defense has been Kansas City’s biggest issue all year long. In each of their last three losses, the Chiefs have allowed 31 points or more. However, this high-powered offense looks ready to get it going again after a 446-yard day from Mahomes against the Titans. Before last week’s narrow loss to Oakland, the Chargers earned a pair of wins over Chicago and Green Bay. Defense was the key to those victories, as they held the Bears to 16 points and the Aaron Rodgers-led Packers to just 11 points. On average, the Chargers are scoring 21 points per game on 368 yards of offense while allowing 20 points per game on 334 yards. Throughout this season, the Chargers have scored 20 points or fewer in six contests. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Clippers -2½ -110 While the Clippers (7-4) have gotten off to a decent start without one of their two star players, the Pelicans (2-8) have won just 20% of their games thus far. Tonight, the Pelicans will be hosting the Clippers in New Orleans. The two Los Angeles teams are once again atop the Pacific standings after the Clippers have earned a 0.5-game lead over the Suns.

On average, the Pelicans are scoring 117 points and allowing 122.4 points per contest. Brandon Ingram leads New Orleans with 25.9 points per game, but it’s unclear if he’ll be able to go this evening after picking up a knock to his knee. |

In the opener, the Marquette offense flowed through guard Markus Howard. In 26 minutes, Howard scored a game-high 38 points while shooting 7-of-10 from beyond the arc and 9-of-10 from the free-throw line. Howard also added five rebounds and two assists.

50* Powerhouse Play on Miami-OH -2 -109 Both the Miami of Ohio Redhawks (0-1) and Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons (1-2) are seeking a .500 record. One of them will do so when these two teams meet today.

Samford put together a consistent performance against Wesleyan, scoring 33 and then 35 while holding Kentucky Wesleyan to 21 in both halves.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Dolphins +11½ -105 Fresh off their first win of the NFL season, the Dolphins (1-7) now set their sights on the Colts (5-3) as they travel into Indianapolis looking for two straight. Through several recent games, Miami had jumped out to a lead only to see it fade away. Against the Jets, Miami claimed a first-half lead and never looked back, earning a 26-18 victory. Although it was just Miami’s second game of 21 points or more, it was the best version of Ryan Fitzpatrick, who threw for three TDs. On average, the Dolphins are scoring 13 points per game on 284 yards of offense while allowing 32 points per game on 411 yards. The win over New York was Miami’s second time holding their opponent to 18 or fewer points in the last four weeks. Although the five-win Colts have shown enough grit and talent to defeat the likes of Kansas City and Houston, they’ll enter Sunday’s game without Jacoby Brissett at quarterback. Instead, Brian Hoyer will make his first start in over two years. The Colts are laying 11.5 points in this contest, yet they’ve failed to earn a margin of victory of more than seven points all season long. On average, the Colts are scoring 23 points per game on 356 yards of offense while allowing 22 points on 355 yards. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Cal-Irvine +3 -110 While the UC Irvine Anteaters (1-0) earned a victory in their season opener, the Pepperdine Waves (0-1) weren’t so fortunate. Tonight, these two squads will face off in Firestone Fieldhouse. With a huge come-from-behind performance, the Anteaters earned a big 76-73 victory over San Diego. UC Irvine was outscored 48-34 in the first half, then used a suffocating defensive effort to limit San Diego to just 25 second-half points. In an effort to bridge the 14-point gap the Anteaters were up against, three Cal Irvine starters scored at least 13 points. Guard Evan Leonard led the team with 19 points, six rebounds, three steals, and two assists while hitting all 10 of his free throws. Tommy Rutherford added another 16 points and six rebounds while Collin Welp scored 13 points and four rebounds. Pepperdine faced a tough task in a season-opening matchup against California, and they couldn’t stand up to it.

In 35 minutes, Ross scored 19 points and added seven assists and three rebounds. Kessler Edwards was right behind Ross, scoring 18 points of his own. |

Today, it’s going to get worse for one of these two squads who face off today. The UC Irvine Anteaters handed San Diego a tough three-point loss in their first game of the season. The Toreros fell apart with just 25 points in the second half after jumping out to a 48-34 lead at halftime. Stamina may have been an issue for San Diego with only seven players seeing meaningful minutes on the floor. Both Joey Calcaterra and Braun Hartfield played 35 minutes. Offensively, Hartfield led the way with a team-high 17 points in addition to his eight rebounds and two assists. Guard Marion Humphrey added another 14 points. Long Beach State took a tough loss of their own as the UCLA Bruins came out on top by just a four-point margin. This was another case of letting the game slip in the second half after the 49ers earned a 33-27 at halftime. Of the three Long Beach State players who reached double-digit points, Michael Carter III and Chance Hunter did most of the damage. While Carter III had 20 points, Hunter added another 19. |

Throughout that streak, only one game has ended as a one-possession game. The Celtics have scored at least 104 in every win, but were held to just 93 points by Philly. On average, the Celtics are scoring 110 points while allowing 102.1 points per game. Among the three Celtics averaging at least 20 points, Kemba Walker leads the way with 24.3 points per game. Jayson Tatum is averaging 21.6 points and 7.7 rebounds per game, and Gordon Hayward is averaging 20.3 points and 7.9 rebounds per game. After two straight losses to the Lakers and Hawks, the Spurs responded with a 121-112 win over the Thunder in their most recent game. While San Antonio has lost three games, only one has come at home. On average, the Spurs are scoring 112.3 points and allowing 109.9 points per game. DeMar DeRozan leads all San Antonio scorers with his 20 points per game while adding five rebounds and 4.8 assists. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Tennessee State +3 -109 While the Chattanooga Mocs (0-1) failed to come out of their season opener as victors, the Tennessee State Tigers (1-0) did. Today, these two teams will face off against one another. Against Alabama A&M, Tennessee State exploded for 106 points while holding their opponent to just 66. With 64 points in the first half, the Tigers nearly matched the Bulldogs’ total in half the time. Apart from two 14-point scorers, Alabama A&M didn’t have another player reach double-digit points against Tennessee State. Meanwhile, four of the Tigers’ five starters and a bench player all reached 10 points or more. Leading the way for Tennessee State was Carlos Marshall Jr., who dropped 22 points with four rebounds and three assists. Guard Will Harris added another 15 points, seven rebounds, and three assists. With a 79-68 loss to Eastern Kentucky, Chattanooga picked up where they left off last year after a 20-loss season. The Mocs actually led at the half, but were outscored 46-30 in the second half. Three Chattanooga players went for 12 points or more, but two Mocs who played double-digit minutes failed to score a single point. David Jean-Baptiste led the way with 18 points in addition to his five rebounds. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Siena +20½ -109 Cincinnati, Ohio will be the destination for a showdown between the Siena Saints (1-0) and the #19 Xavier Musketeers (1-0). Siena is getting 20.5 points in this contest. The Saints opened the season with a big 96-80 win over American. In that game, Jalen Pickett led all scorers with his 22 points from the bench. Pickett also added five rebounds and four assists in his 30 minutes on the floor. In addition to Pickett, Siena had three other scorers drop 14 points or more. Forward Elijah Burns was perhaps the most influential player on the floor for the Saints as he put up 19 points, nine rebounds, three assists, and two blocks. Manny Camper pitched in with 14 points, eight rebounds, and four assists. A fast-paced Siena team figures to offer more of a challenge for Xavier than the Musketeers’ first opponent, Jacksonville University. Despite severely outmatching Jacksonville, Xavier was only able to muster a 19-point victory, and they’re laying more than 20 points tonight. Against Jacksonville, both Tyrique Jones and Naji Marshall scored 17 points. While Jones also snagged 11 rebounds, Jones added six rebounds, four assists, and two steals. In total, four Musketeers scored at least 11 points. |

11-08-19 | Loyola-Chicago +5.5 v. Furman | 63-87 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 12 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Loyola-Chicago +5½ -110 Both the Loyola-Chicago Ramblers (1-0) and the Furman Paladins (1-0) kicked off the college basketball season with a win. Tonight, these two teams will go head to head. In Loyola’s first game, which came against UC Davis, the Ramblers demolished their opponent by scoring 82 and holding the Aggies to just 48 points. Loyola jumped out to a 39-22 lead at the half and never looked back. In the opening contest, four Loyola starters reached double-digit points. Center Cameron Krutwig led the way with 15 points in addition to his 11 assists and eight rebounds. Krutwig finished the night 6-for-8 from the floor, and figures to be a big part of Loyola’s plans going forward. Tate Hall was another vital player for the Ramblers in the season opener. In total, Hall scored 14 points while racking up nine rebounds, four assists, and three steals. Furman was on the road against Webber to open the season. A relatively close game ended in a seven-point victory for the Paladins. Much of Furman’s offense came down to the trio of Noah Gurley, Alex Hunter, and Clay Mounce, who were the only three Paladins in double digits. Gurley was the leading scorer of the bunch with 18 points. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Marist +7½ -110 The Marist Red Foxes are set to open their 2019-20 college basketball season with a matchup against the VMI Keydets (0-1). Marist will be looking to improve upon a season in which they managed just 12 wins. To end the season, the Red Foxes followed up a four-game winning streak with a five-game losing streak, including a 71-68 overtime loss in the season finale. Against non-conference competition last year, the Red Foxes went 5-7 while allowing 68.9 points per game and scoring 65.8 points per game. On the flip side, VMI went 3-6 out of conference and allowed those opponents to score 81.8 points per game while scoring 70.9 points per game of their own. The Keydets started the season with a 80-68 loss to East Carolina. In that contest, only two VMI players managed to get to double-digit points. Greg Parham was the leading Keydets scorer by a wide margin with 23 points. Parham also added four rebounds, three assists, and two steals. Jake Stephens, who scored 10 points in 22 minutes, was the only other VMI player to reach double digits. In addition to a lack of scoring, the Keydets have an issue slowing down opposing offenses. Against ECU, VMI allowed two Pirates to score 20 points or more. |

11-06-19 | Cincinnati v. Ohio State -6.5 | 56-64 | Win | 100 | 13 h 47 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Ohio State -6½ -109 A pair of Ohio rivals will take the court in the season opener as the Cincinnati Bearcats go into Columbus to take on the #18 Ohio State Buckeyes. After a strong 14-4 performance in the American Athletic Conference and a 28-7 season overall, head coach Mick Cronin left Cincinnati for greener pastures at UCLA. Cronin has been replaced by John Brannen, who led Northern Kentucky to two NCAA Tournament berths in three years. Although they appear to be outmatched this evening, the Bearcats can lean on returning wing player Jarron Cumberland. Last season, Cumberland averaged 18.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game. Cincinnati will also send out transfer point guard Chris McNeal, who averaged 9.5 points a game last year, but who’s also going to be playing for his fifth team in five years. After bringing in the top recruiting class in the Big Ten, the Buckeyes are ready to bounce back from a disappointing 20-15 season. The Buckeyes have a host of talent ready to replace the likes of C.J. Jackson, who averaged 12 points and 3.5 assists per game last year. Look for E.J. Liddell, who highlights a freshman class as a 6-6, 236-pound all-around player who blocked 500 shots in high school. |

11-06-19 | Belmont -6 v. Illinois State | Top | 72-79 | Loss | -114 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Belmont -6 -114 After losing their head coach to retirement and their star guard to graduation, the new-look Belmont Bruins will look to start the season strong against the Illinois State Redbirds. Rick Byrd did a wonderful job in his last season in charge of the Bruins, leading the team to a 27-6 record and an NCAA Tournament berth. Byrd now hands to reigns over to his former player, Casey Alexander. On the floor, Belmont also loses a big piece in the form of guard Dylan Windler, who was a first-round draft pick after a senior season in which he averaged 21.3 points and 10.8 rebounds per game. However, the Bruins are returning three starters from a year ago, including OVC Freshman of the Year Nick Muszynski, who averaged 14.7 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. Last year, Belmont was the second-ranked scoring offense in college basketball with 86.9 points per game. Illinois State was perfectly average last year. On top of a 9-9 record in MVC play, the Redbirds went 17-16 overall. The Redbirds are returning only one starter from last season – Zach Copeland. If Illinois State will improve, they’ll likely need more than 9.6 points per game from Copeland. |

11-05-19 | Pepperdine v. California +2.5 | 71-87 | Win | 100 | 13 h 42 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on California +2½ -109 Berkley, California will be the site of a non-conference season opener for both the Pepperdine Waves and Cal Golden Bears with the latter playing host. Under first-year head coach Lorenzo Romar, Pepperdine won 10 more games than the year prior last season. However, the Waves still finished with a losing record after winning only 16 games and advanced the school’s streak of NCAA Tournament absences to 17 seasons. Colbey Ross was Pepperdine’s standout player last year. On average, Ross put up 19.7 points and seven assists per game whilst shooting 39.6% from three. In addition to Ross, Pepperdine will feature Kameron Edwards, who scored 14.7 points with 6.2 rebounds per game, and Kessler Edwards who scored 10 points with 5.6 rebounds per game. The Pepperdine offense played with pace under Romar, but left themselves open to attack on the defensive end. Opposing offenses were able to score by shooting 53.9% from the field. California is looking for a quick turnaround after last year’s 8-23 season, and they brought in former Georgia head coach Mark Fox to do so. Fox finished with a winning record in each of his last five seasons with Georgia in a tough SEC. Senior Justice Sueing led the 2018-19 Cal team with 14.3 points and six rebounds per game. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Heat +4½ -109 Through 12 total games, you’ll find only three losses between the Heat (5-1) and Nuggets (4-2). Tonight, these two teams will do battle in Denver. Miami has been a pleasant surprise in the Eastern Conference. Only a 116-109 loss to the Timberwolves separates the Heat from a perfect record. Most recently, Miami won back-to-back games against the Hawks before taking down the Rockets in a comfortable win. On average, the Heat are scoring 117.8 points and allowing 106.2 points per game. The Heat are getting production from all over the place. In total, Miami has eight players scoring in the double digits on average. Of those eight, half are scoring at least 15 points per game. Kendrick Nunn leads the way with his 19.5 points per game. The Nuggets jumped out to a 3-0 start before dropping two straight against Dallas and New Orleans, the latter of which felt like a blowout against a weak NBA roster. Most recently, Denver bounced back with a 91-87 win in Orlando. On average, the Nuggets are scoring 103.5 points and allowing 103.2 points per game. Nikola Jokic is scoring 15.8 points while averaging a team-high 10.5 rebounds and six assists per game. While Jokic is the most productive player, Jamal Murray is leading the team in scoring, with 18.5 points per game. |

11-05-19 | Lakers -7 v. Bulls | 118-112 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 13 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Lakers -7 -109 All of a sudden, the Lakers (5-1) look like the best team in the NBA. This evening, the Bulls (2-5) will do their best to slow down L.A. when they host LeBron and company in Chicago. Since dropping the season opener to the cross-town rival Clippers, the Lakers have ripped off five victories in a row. Defense has been the special ingredient on this streak that includes wins over Utah and San Antonio. On average, the Lakers are scoring 109.8 points and allowing 99.3 points per game. When LeBron recruited Anthony Davis, the Lakers instantly had one of the best duos in basketball. So far, it’s showing. While James is scoring 25.5 points per game while leading the team with 11.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game, Davis is tops on the Lakers with 28.5 points, 11.5 rebounds, and three blocks per game. The Bulls haven’t had much success through the early part of the NBA season. After notching their second win of the season at the start of November, Chicago then lost handily to the Pacers. On average, the Bulls are scoring 105 points and allowing 110.3 points per game. Zach LaVine continues to be the leading scorer for Chicago. On the season, LaVine is averaging 21.1 points, four rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game. |

11-05-19 | Bradley -4.5 v. St. Joe's | Top | 81-86 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 42 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Bradley -4½ -109 The Hawks of St. Joe’s will kick off the season with a non-conference contest as they host the Bradley Braves. Bradley is coming off a strong 20-15 season in which they won nine of their 18 games in conference play. With Drake leading the conference, the Braves finished fifth in the MVC standings. By allowing just 65.3 points per game, Bradley ranked 35th in the nation a year ago. The Braves were clearly a defensive team, as they ranked 366th with their 66.5 points per game on offense. St. Joe’s was one of the weaker teams in the Atlantic 10 Conference, trailing well behind 25-8 VCU and 24-10 Davidson. With just six wins out of their 14-19 record coming in the conference, the Hawks will need a big improvement if they’ll come close to competing for anything meaningful this year. The Hawks were a mediocre team on both side of the ball a season ago. While St. Joe’s ranked 269th in scoring offense with 70.5 points per game, they ranked 211th in scoring defense with 72.6 points allowed. After serving as St. Joe’s captain for three years, guard Lamarr Kimble transferred to Louisville, taking his 15.6 points per game with him. |

11-05-19 | George Washington +6.5 v. Towson | 58-72 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 15 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on George Washington +6½ -110 Both the George Washington Colonials and Towson Tigers struggled throughout the season last year. Tonight, both teams will aim to start a new campaign on the right foot as they face off on Towson’s home floor. In the Atlantic Ten, George Washington managed just four conference wins as part of their 9-24 overall record. Meanwhile, Towson earned a similar record of 10-22 while going 6-12 in the Colonial Athletic Association. After last year’s underperformance, the Colonials decided a change was needed at head coach. So, George Washington opted to hire Jamion Christian, who spent a single year in Siena, where he led the Saints to a record of 17-16 and 11-7 in conference play. Christian will try to open things up for guard Maceo Jack, who returns as the team’s third-leading scorer form a year ago with 11.5 points per game. Towson played decent defensive basketball last year, holding opponents to 43.6% shooting from the field. However, the Tigers’ offensive production was severely lacking. By shooting 32.7% from three and 43.5% from the field, Towson struggled to outscore anyone. Senior Brain Fobbs led the team with 17.5 points and 5.9 rebounds per game. |

11-05-19 | Virginia Tech v. Clemson -6.5 | 67-60 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 35 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Clemson -6½ -105 Neither the Virginia Tech Hokies or the Clemson Tigers will be ranked as the 2019-20 college basketball season gets underway. Tonight, these two teams will go head to head on Clemson’s home court. Last year, Clemson finished with a record of 20-14 and went 9-9 in ACC play. Virginia Tech finished the season with a 26-9 record that included a 12-6 performance in the conference. These two squads most recently met back in February. Although you can’t necessarily glean too much from a contest between last year’s teams, it’s worth noting that Clemson earned a 59-51 victory at home. After a trip to the Sweet 16, head coach Buzz Williams departed Virginia Tech in favor of Texas A&M. Now, new coach Mike Young will have to see what he can do without the team’s top five scorer from a season ago, all of whom are no longer with the Hokies. Finding offense will be tough for a Virginia Tech team that ranked 170th in the nation with 73.5 points per game last season. By allowing just 63.9 points per game last year, the Tigers ranked 23rd in scoring defense. Offensively, Clemson will be counting on Curran Scott, who scored 8.9 points a game at Tulsa, and Tevin Mack, who scored nine points per game at Alabama. |

11-05-19 | VMI v. East Carolina -7.5 | 68-80 | Win | 100 | 10 h 37 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on East Carolina -7½ -109 After a 10-21 season, the East Carolina Pirates are aiming for a more successful season this year. To start towards that goal, the Pirates will play host to the VMI Keydets in the first game of the new campaign. VMI finished the 2018-19 season as one of the worst teams in the Southern Conference. Only Western Carolina was worse in a conference that featured the likes of Wofford, UNC Greensboro, and Furman. The Keydets don’t have a lot to build on, and it’s gotten even worse after guard Bubba Parham, who led the Southern Conference in scoring, decided to transfer away from VMI to Georgia Tech. Without another scorer averaging even 11 points per game a season ago, VMI will miss the 21.4 points per game Parham racked up last year. East Carolina only managed three wins out of 18 conference games last season to finish 13 games back of the AAC-leading Houston Cougars. Second-year head coach Joe Dooley is spearheading one of the biggest rebuilds in the country with only two players returning from last year’s squad: Seth LeDay, who scored 11 points per game, and Jayden Gardner, who scored 16.3 points per game. 11 newcomers are joining this Pirates team. |

11-05-19 | Louisville v. Miami-FL +7 | 87-74 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 29 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Miami-FL +7 -105 After finished with a record of 20-14 a year ago, the #5 Louisville Cardinals are set to kick off the college basketball season against the Miami Hurricanes in Coral Gables. While both teams will be short-handed to start the season, Louisville will have the biggest of the losses with the absence of center Malik Williams, who averaged 9.8 points and 8.4 rebounds per game in his last five games. After breaking his foot in September, Williams is likely to return later this month. In Williams’ place will be Steven Enoch, who averaged 10 points and 5.6 rebounds per game from the bench over the Cardinals last 20 games. Miami is looking to rebound from a 14-18 season, and they should have more talent and depth in that endeavor. Last season, the Hurricanes played the majority of their games with a seven-man rotation. This year, Miami should have more to offer with center Rodney Miller and forwards Sam Waardenburg and Anthony Walker in the frontcourt. Last season, guard Chris Lykes led the Hurricanes with 16.2 points per game in addition to his 3.2 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game. Guard Dejan Vasiljevic was the best shooter on the team, hitting 91.8% of his free throws and 36.7% of his attempts from three. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Bucks -6 -109 A pair of strong NBA rosters will face off in Minnesota this evening when the Timberwolves (4-1) play host to the Bucks (4-2). Milwaukee has regained some of its preseason shine with a pair of victories over Orlando and Toronto. The Bucks won both those games handily, despite having to play them on consecutive days. On average, the Bucks are scoring 119.2 points per game while allowing 111 points per game. Milwaukee will go as far as Giannis Antetokounmpo takes them, and that will likely be enough for a deep postseason run. So far, Giannis leads the Bucks with 26.7 points, 13.8 rebounds, 7.7 assists, and 1.3 steals per game. In Milwaukee’s most recent game, Giannis had a game-high 36 points in addition to 15 rebounds and eight assists. Three other Bucks starters pitched in with at least 11 points in the game. Only a loss to the 76ers that featured a scuffle between Karl-Anthony Towns and Joel Embiid has kept Minnesota from earning a perfect record through five games. Most recently, the Wolves defeated the Wizards 131-109. On average, the Wolves are scoring 118 points and allowing 112 points per game. Towns has been Minnesota’s best player through the opening part of the season. With 27.2 points and 11.5 rebounds per game, Towns leads the Wolves. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Mavs -4½ -109 It’s been a strong start to the season for the Mavericks (3-2), who took the Lakers to overtime two night ago. Tonight, Dallas will go into Cleveland to take on the Cavaliers (2-3). That overtime loss to Los Angeles was one of just two Dallas losses, with the other coming in a two-point game against a strong Portland team. The Mavericks have been able to take down the Pelicans, Wizards, and Nuggets so far this season. On average, the Mavericks are scoring 113.8 points per game while allowing 112.4 points per game. Of the star duos in the NBA, the pair of Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis are often forgotten behind the offerings of the Lakers, Clippers, or Rockets. However, the Dallas duo has been very strong. While Porzingis leads the team with two blocks per game in addition to his 21 points per game, Doncic leads the Mavs with 26.2 points, 9.6 rebounds, 8.4 assists, and 1.8 steals per game. The Cavaliers have an interesting collection of talents, but they’re currently trying to get back to .500. Most recently, Cleveland lost to Indiana after having beaten the Pacers earlier in the season. On average, the Cavaliers are scoring 103.8 points per game while allowing 107 points per game. Kevin Love is back to averaging a double-double so far this year with his 17.2 points and 16.8 rebounds per contest. Tristan Thompson is also off to a solid start with 17.6 points and 11.4 rebounds per game. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Kings +1 -114 An early-evening NBA matchup will feature two of the worst teams in the league when the Knicks (1-5) host the Kings (1-5) in New York. No matter what, one of these squads will start the year with just one win out of their first seven games. After dropping their first five contests of the season, Sacramento was able to scrape together their first victory in a one-point game against a strong Utah team. De’Aaron Fox led the Kings in that contest with his game-high 25 points. On average, the Kings are scoring 99.2 points per game and allowing 113.2 points per game. Fox leads the team on the season with his 17.7 points per game in addition to his 6.3 assists and 3.8 rebounds per contest. Buddy Hield struggled from the three-point line in the team’s win over the Jazz, but he’s normally very capable from that range, which is why he’s averaging 16.3 points per game. Since defeating Chicago towards the end of October, the Knicks have lost two straight to Orlando and Boston. In that contest against the Magic, New York only scored 83 points. On average, the Knicks are scoring 100.8 points per game while allowing 108 points per game. While Julius Randle leads New York in both rebounds, with 11 per game, and assists, with five per game, young RJ Barrett is the team’s leading scorer with 17.7 points per game. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Hawaii -2 -109 With a win today, the Fresno State Bulldogs (3-4) could get back to .500. Tonight, they’ll attempt to do so against the high-flying Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (5-3) in Hawaii. Fresno State appeared to be on a good run of form after winning three of four, but they’ve now dropped two of their last three games. In those losses, the Bulldogs allowed 43 points to Air Force and 41 points to Colorado State. On average, Fresno State is scoring 33 points per game on 401 yards of offense while allowing 31 points per game on 388 yards. Quarterback Jorge Reyna leads the Fresno State attack. On the season, Reyna has thrown for 1,655 yards with 10 touchdowns and six interceptions. Hawaii has continued their long-standing tradition of trying to outscore opponents with a fast-paced offense. After losses to Air Force and #14 Boise State, the Rainbow Warriors returned to their winning ways with a 45-31 victory over New Mexico. On average, the Rainbow Warriors are scoring 37 points per game on 488 yards of offense while allowing 35 points per game on 437 yards. Completing 65.5% of his passes, quarterback Cole McDonald continues to chuck the ball all over the field. On the year, McDonald has 2,521 yards with 24 touchdowns and 11 picks. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Oregon -4 -109 The #7 Oregon Ducks (7-1) are the Pac-12’s best chance of having a representative in the College Football Playoff. The Ducks will face one of their toughest tasks of the season when they go on the road to take on the USC Trojans (5-3) Saturday evening. Oregon’s lone loss of the season came on a neutral site game to open the year when they allowed #16 Auburn to earn a comeback victory. Since then, the Ducks haven’t lost. Oregon recently survived two tough games against #25 Washington and then Washington State. On average, the Ducks are scoring 36 points per game on 466 yards of offense while allowing 15 points per game on 308 yards. Quarterback Justin Herbert has been getting plenty of NFL draft chatter, and for good reason. On the year, Herbert has thrown for 2,104 yards with 21 touchdowns and just one interception while completing 68.3% of his passes. USC has trudged through a difficult schedule that’s included a stretch of games against #10 Utah, #17 Washington, and #10 Notre Dame. To get to 5-3, the Trojans recently took down both Arizona and Colorado. On average, the Trojans are scoring 31 points per game on 442 yards of offense while allowing 25 points per game on 429 yards. A trio of receivers has accounted for 16 of USC’s touchdowns so far this year. Michael Pittman Jr. has racked up 755 receiving yards and seven touchdowns to lead the group. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Jazz -1½ -105 The Clippers (3-1) are the favorites to win the Western Conference as well as the NBA Finals, but there’s plenty of good competition aiming for an upset. One of those good competitors is a talented Jazz team (3-1). Tonight, the Jazz are hoping to prove they can play with anyone when they host Los Angeles. After opening the season with a pair of relatively comfortable wins over the Lakers and Warriors, the Clippers fell to the Suns before rebounding against Charlotte with a 111-96 victory. With a 52% field goal percentage, the Clippers are averaging 121.5 points per game while holding their competition to 112.5 points per game. There’s a sharp drop off in scoring without Paul George on the floor for Los Angeles. Kawhi Leonard, Lou Williams, and Montrezl Harrell are all averaging at least 20 points per game, but the next scorer on the list is Landry Shamet, who’s scoring just 10.3 points per game. The Jazz have every chance to compete for a Western Conference championship, especially if Donovan Mitchell can take the next step towards superstardom. So far, he’s helped Utah to three wins out of four, with only a loss to the Lakers blemishing the record. Mitchell, who’s averaging 24 points, five rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game, is getting help from CJ McCollum, who’s scoring 23.7 points per game of his own. The most impressive aspect of the Jazz in the early part of the season is their ability to hold all four opponents to 95 points or fewer. |

10-30-19 | Blazers -1 v. Thunder | 102-99 | Win | 100 | 12 h 54 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Blazers -1 -109 Through four games of the NBA season, the Trail Blazers (2-2) are a .500 team. Tonight, Portland will travel into Oklahoma City to take on the Thunder (1-3). Portland is now set for its third-straight road game after going 2-1 against the Kings, Mavericks, and Spurs, with their only loss coming in the second game of a back-to-back against San Antonio. Before this road trip, the Blazers opened the season with a 108-100 loss to Denver. On average, the Blazer are scoring 113.3 points and allowing 113 points per game. The scoring duo of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum has picked up where it left off a season ago. So far, Lillard is averaging 30.8 points per game while McCollum is adding another 23.3 points per game. Hassan Whiteside has gotten off to a great start for Portland, as he’s dominated the boards with 12.3 rebounds per game while pitching in offensively with 13 points per contest. The Thunder haven’t found much success in this early season. Of their three losses, Oklahoma City failed to score more than a 95 points in two of them. On average, the Thunder are scoring 103 points per game while allowing 101.3 points. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been the top scorer for Oklahoma City, averaging 23.8 points per game. The only other Thunder player over 14 points per game is Danilo Gallinari, who’s scoring 19.3 points per game. |

10-29-19 | Hawks v. Heat -8 | Top | 97-112 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Heat -8 -105 Through three games, the Hawks (2-1) and Heat (2-1) have identical records. Tonight, the Heat are set to host the Hawks in Miami. Atlanta opened the season with a pair of wins over Detroit and Orlando. Most recently, the Hawks took their first loss in a tight 105-103 game against Philadelphia. With a win this evening, the Hawks would take control of the Southeast division. Through three games, Trae Young has been exceptional for Atlanta. Young leads the team in both points, with 34 points per game, and assists, with nine per game. However, it’s hard to find a second scorer on the Hawks right now. John Collins, who leads the team with 10 boards per game, is second on the team with 14.3 points per game. The Heat have followed the same path to 2-1 as the Hawks by winning their first two contests before dropping the third. It’s easier to forgive Miami’s loss, though, as it came in the second game of a back-to-back. In the Heat’s overtime win against Milwaukee, Goran Dragic led the team in scoring from the bench with 25 points. On the season, Dragic is tied with Justice Winslow as the second-leading scorer with 19 points per game. Playing less than 32 minutes per game, Kendrick Nunn leads Miami with 22.3 points per game. |

10-26-19 | Hawaii v. New Mexico +10 | 45-31 | Loss | -110 | 30 h 3 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on New Mexico +10 -110 With Saturday’s game versus the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (4-3), the New Mexico Lobos (2-5) will try to begin digging themselves out of the basement of the Mountain West Conference. Hawaii’s strong first half of the season came to a grinding halt with two straight losses to #14 Boise State and Air Force. In both games, the Rainbow Warriors gave up at least 56 points. On average, the Rainbow Warriors are scoring 35 points per game on 475 yards of offense while allowing 36 points per game on 428 yards. A dynamic Hawaii passing attack is led by quarterback Cole McDonald, who’s thrown for 2,284 yards with 23 touchdowns and 10 picks. The rushing attack is far inferior, with running back Miles Reed leading the team with just 273 yards and three touchdowns on the season. New Mexico has lost four straight since the end of September while scoring 10 points in two of the contests and 21 points in the other two. On average, the Lobos are scoring 24 points per game on 417 yards of offense while allowing 37 points per game on 494 yards. The New Mexico offense features a pair of solid running backs. Averaging 5.1 yards per carry, Ahmari Davis leads the team with 543 yards and four touchdowns. Averaging 6.3 yards per carry, Bryson Carroll has added another 444 yards and two touchdowns. |

10-25-19 | Blazers -2.5 v. Kings | Top | 122-112 | Win | 100 | 15 h 5 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Blazers -2½ -109 Two teams looking for their first when will face off this evening when the Trail Blazers (0-1) take on the Kings (0-1) in Sacramento. Portland is coming off a relatively close home loss to a good Nuggets team. The Blazers didn’t shoot well, making just 41.4% of their shots from the field, but they showed their scrappiness with nine steals in the game. Damian Lillard led all scorers in the game with 32 points, including three three-pointers. Lillard also added eight assists and four rebounds. Hassan Whiteside put in an efficient shift for Portland, snagging 19 rebounds and scoring 16 points on 6-of-7 shooting from the field. Sacramento had a tougher time in their season opener against the Suns. By shooting a dismal 39.1% from the field, the Kings were blown out by a score of 124-95. By shooting 50% from the three-point line and putting up a high volume of shots from the field, guard Buddy Hield scored 28 points in addition to his five rebounds and two assists. With 14 points, Marvin Bagley III was the next-highest scorer for Sacramento. By bringing down 10 rebounds, Bagley III earned a double-double. |

10-25-19 | Bulls -1 v. Grizzlies | 110-102 | Win | 100 | 12 h 17 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Bulls -1 -109 Both the Bulls (0-1) and Grizzlies (0-1) will aim to avoid an 0-2 start when they take on one another this evening in Memphis. These two teams opened up the 2019-20 season Wednesday night on the road, and while they both lost, Chicago fell by only a single point. By a score of 126-125, Charlotte bested the Bulls while the Grizzlies lost in Miami by a score of 120-101. Although the outcomes were the same, the Bulls managed to display a better a shooting performance in their matchup. With a 46.7% field goal percentage, Chicago outshot a Memphis team that made just 42.7% of their shots from the field. For the Bulls, Lauri Markkanen was a beast from everywhere on the floor aside from the three-point line, where he was 1-of-7. In 34 minutes, the Chicago big man scored 35 points and pulled down 17 rebounds, five of which came on the offensive end. Both Thaddeus Young and Coby White added 17 points each from the bench, which was more than any starter not named Markkanen. Even without Jimmy Butler in uniform, the Heat cruised to victory over the Griz on Justice Winslow’s 27-point performance. Memphis didn’t have a single player get to the 20-point mark, but Ja Morant started his NBA campaign with 14 points and five rebounds. |

10-24-19 | SMU v. Houston +14.5 | Top | 34-31 | Win | 100 | 33 h 8 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Houston +14½ -110 D’Eriq King and the Houston Cougars (3-4) were supposed to be a top AAC team this year. Instead, it’s the undefeated #16 SMU Mustangs who lead the conference. Tonight, these two teams face off in Houston. Ever since opening the season with a 37-30 win over Arkansas State, SMU has scored at least 41 points in every single contest. That includes a win over #25 TCU and a 45-21 performance against a good Temple team. On average, the Mustangs are scoring 44 points per game on 521 yards of offense while allowing 27 points per game on 370 yards. Quarterback Shane Buechele leads the SMU offense. Completing 64.8% of his passes, Buechele has thrown for 2,122 yards with 18 touchdowns and six interceptions. Buechele is coming off a huge game against Temple in which he threw for 457 yards with six TDs and one pick. The Cougars followed up a loss to #25 Cincinnati with a 24-17 win over UConn. On average, Houston is scoring 31 points per game on 393 yards of offense while allowing 31 points per game on 470 yards. Houston features a running game with a pair of backs that have scored three touchdowns each. Kyle Porter leads the team with 448 yards, and Patrick Carr has racked up 301 yards of his own. Although Houston doesn’t have the stingiest defense in the nation, giving 14.5 points to an offense that averages 31 is a dangerous affair. |

10-23-19 | Cavs v. Magic -8 | 85-94 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Magic -8 -114 New Cavaliers (0-0) head coach John Beilein is set to make his debut for the franchise on the road against the Magic (0-0) in Orlando. Beilein is taking over a team that has three remaining or returning players from the 2016 glory days: Matthew Dellavedova, Kevin Love, and Tristan Thompson. Love hasn’t been able to return to his 26 point, 13 rebound days from Minnesota, but he averaged 17 points and 10.9 rebounds a season ago. With some young talent in the form of Collin Sexton and rookie Darius Garland, the Cavs have a shot at the playoffs if they get solid contributions from Larry Nance Jr. and Jordan Clarkson. The Magic have made some moves that give them a great opportunity to make a second-straight postseason appearance for the first time since 2012. First of all, Orlando resigned Nikola Vucevic, who averaged 20.8 points, 12 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.1 blocks per game last year. Orlando simply offers more firepower than the Cavs, featuring Terrence Ross, Michael Carter-Williams, Markelle Fultz, Aaron Gordon, and Jonathan Isaac. If Gordon, who shot 34.9% from three last year, and Isaac, who shot 32.3% from three last year, can improve from deep, this team could be dangerous. |

10-22-19 | Lakers -2.5 v. Clippers | Top | 102-112 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 35 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Lakers -2½ -110 The NBA season will tip off with a bang as we get things started with the battle for Los Angeles between the Lakers (0-0) and Clippers (0-0). While we’ll have to wait for the real war between LeBron James and Anthony Davis versus Kawhi Leonard and Paul George – George is out after undergoing surgery on his shoulders – tonight’s matchup will certainly quench a thirst that was created as soon as these two teams acquired their premier talent. After sending a host of young players to New Orleans, including Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, and Brandon Ingram, the Lakers acquired Davis and became an instant favorite in the Western Conference. Davis joins LeBron and the up-and-coming talent of Kyle Kuzma in addition to veteran role players like JaVale McGee and Rajon Rondo. The Clippers pulled off a pair of blockbuster moves to land free agent Kawhi Leonard and acquire Paul George from the Thunder. With the likes of Patrick Beverley leading the role players on the Clippers, this team is full of scrappy guys who’ll compliment their stars. Without George on the floor, the advantage falls to the Lakers. Last year, Davis averaged 25.9 points, 12 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game with the Pelicans, and LeBron averaged 27.4 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game for L.A. As we get our first look at these two teams, keep an eye on Danny Green and what sort of contribution he can provide for the Lakers from three. |

10-21-19 | Patriots v. Jets +10 | Top | 33-0 | Loss | -115 | 33 h 15 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Jets +10 -115 Two familiar opponents are set for a Monday Night Football brawl as the undefeated Patriots (6-0) go on the road to take on the Jets (1-4). The double-digit favorite Pats are yet to drop a contest, but they’ve also played one of the easiest schedules in the NFL through six weeks of play. New England has had the pleasure of playing the likes of Miami, Washington, and the Giants thus far. While it’s taken the Patriots offense awhile to get going, the defense has been dominant throughout the season. On average, New England is scoring 32 points per game on 399 yards of offense while allowing an NFL-lowest eight points per game on 260 yards. After throwing for only 150 yards against Buffalo, quarterback Tom Brady has bounced back with 348 yards against the Redskins and 334 yards against the Giants. On the season, Brady has thrown for 1,743 yards with 10 touchdowns and three picks. The Jets have only been better than Miami in the AFC East, but they’re coming off their first win of the season on Sam Darnold’s return and their best offensive performance of the year. On average, New York is scoring 13 points per game on 250 yards of offense while allowing 25 points per game on 369 yards. Although New England won a Week 3 matchup between these teams by a score of 30-14, Darnold was out of the game with mono. Now, the Jets will have their starter under center after going 23 of 32 for 338 yards, two TDs, and a pick against Dallas last week. |

10-17-19 | UL-Lafayette -6 v. Arkansas State | Top | 37-20 | Win | 100 | 33 h 52 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on UL-Lafayette -6 -110 Thursday evening features a matchup of Sun Belt programs as the University of Louisiana – Lafayette Ragin Cajuns (4-2) go on the road to take on the Arkansas State Red Wolves (3-3). After four straight wins, Lafayette suffered their second loss of the season last week as they fell to the Appalachian State Mountaineers by a score of 17-7. Offensively, the Ragin Cajuns have been great, scoring between 35 and 77 points in each of their victories. On average, Lafayette is scoring 38 points per game on 492 yards of offense while allowing 21 points per game on 344 yards. The Ragin Cajuns can boast a trio of productive running backs. Trey Ragas leads the team with 572 yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Following Ragas, running back Elijah Mitchell has racked up 470 yards and nine TDs while Raymond Calais has added 320 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Arkansas State is coming off a tough 52-38 loss to Georgia State, which is the first game they’ve dropped since the team’s 55-0 beatdown to #3 Georgia. On average, the Red Wolves are scoring 34 points on 430 yards of offense while allowing 39 points on 535 yards. This appears to be the perfect storm for Lafayette, who will love their chances with a high-powered offense going up against a defense that’s used to giving up a ton or yardage and points. |

10-16-19 | Melbourne United +23 v. Kings | Top | 110-124 | Win | 100 | 13 h 19 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Melbourne United +23 -110 The Kings (2-2) will open up the regular season against the Suns on October 23rd. Tonight, Sacramento will complete its final in-game preparations in the team’s preseason finale against Melbourne United. After starting the preseason with a pair of losses to the Pacers, including a 132-131 overtime loss in the first exhibition game, the Kings have rallied to defeat the Suns 105-88 and the Jazz 128-115. The latter of Sacramento’s wins came against Utah, when the Kings received another effective night from guard Buddy Hield. On 9-of-17 shooting from the field and 3-of-6 from three, Hield racked up 23 points in 28 minutes. Hield ended with a plus/minus of +22 and added five assists and three rebounds. The team’s second leading scorer was Marvin Bagley III, who put up 22 points in 30 minutes on the floor. Bagley was a 50% shooter from the floor and from three on 16 and four attempts, respectively. The Kings power forward had a strong night on the boards, bringing down 11 rebounds and blocking two shots. The Sacramento bench was led by Bogdan Bogdanovic, who scored 16 points alongside eight assists and five rebounds in 29 minutes. |

10-16-19 | Spurs +4 v. Rockets | 128-114 | Win | 100 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Spurs +4 -110 Through three preseason games, the Spurs (0-3) are winless. For head coach Gregg Popovich, getting better performances out of his team with just two games remaining before regular season play will be the objective. Tonight, the Spurs will take on the Rockets (3-1) in Houston. While the Spurs have allowed between 107 and 125 points in each preseason game thus far, the Rockets have scored at least 109 points in each of their exhibition games. The bigger issue for Houston is having allowed 129 and 111 points to the Raptors in back-to-back games. San Antonio most recently took on New Orleans in a game highlighted by Demar DeRozan and Bryn Forbes. While DeRozan had 16 points on 4-of-6 shooting from the field, Forbes was 7-for-13 on his way to 18 points for the Spurs. It was no surprise to see both James Harden and Russell Westbrook leading the Rockets in scoring in their latest contest. Both men put up 22 points, three rebounds, and three steals while Westbrook dished out four assists and Harden assisted nine times. Both teams will have one preseason game remaining after this evening’s contest. |

10-16-19 | South Alabama v. Troy -14.5 | Top | 13-37 | Win | 100 | 11 h 59 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Troy -14½ -110 Despite entering a Wednesday evening game against the South Alabama Jaguars (1-5) as a two-touchdown favorite, the Troy Trojans (2-3) have just two wins on the season. South Alabama hasn’t won since a 37-14 victory over Jackson State, but they’re coming off a 20-17 double-overtime loss against Georgia Southern. On average, the Jaguars are scoring 17 points per game on 319 yards of offense while allowing 29 points on 400 yards per game. With 170 yards per game on the ground, the running game is the strength of this South Alabama team. Running back Tra Minter leads the Jaguars with 477 yards and two touchdowns. Both South Alabama and Troy enjoyed a bye week last weekend, but the Jaguars have also had two extra days to prepare for this contest. Troy has fallen in their last two games to Arkansas State and Missouri, allowing a total of 92 points. On average, the Trojans are scoring 35 points per game on 450 yards per game while allowing 32 points per game on 402 yards. The defense looks very susceptible right now, so Troy will be counting on quarterback Kaleb Barker to perform. On the season, Barker has thrown for 1,476 yards with 14 touchdowns and four interceptions. |

10-15-19 | Celtics v. Cavs +4.5 | Top | 118-95 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 32 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Cavs +4½ -110 Through three preseason games, the Celtics (3-0) have failed to lose a single contest. Tonight, the Celtics will go into Cleveland to take on the Cavaliers (1-2) for the second-straight game. Game by game, Boston has scored 107, 100, and 118 points against the Hornets, Magic, and Cavs. Meanwhile, Cleveland has scored 120, 105, and 72 against San Lorenzo, Detroit, and Boston. In Sunday’s matchup between these two squads, a 37-9 second quarter put the game out of reach for Cleveland before the halftime break. On the way to a 118-72 blowout, Boston outscored the Cavs in every single quarter of play. The Cavaliers can’t be much worse from the three-point line. The five Cleveland starters went a combined 1-for-22 from beyond the arc. So, of a potential 66 points, the starter alone left 63 points on the floor. Sindarius Thornwell was Cleveland’s best player, scoring 12 points and bringing down five rebounds in 17 minutes. Thornwell wasn’t all that far off from matching the combined point total of all five starters, who managed just 21 points on a horrid shooting night. The Celtics, who received double-digit scoring nights from three starters and three subs, should be expecting tougher competition from a Cavaliers team that would struggle to shoot worse than they did a few nights ago. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Lions +4 -110 As a favorite in the NFC, the Packers (4-1) will be aiming to defend their home field as they host the Lions (2-1-1) in Green Bay this evening. Detroit, who is coming off a bye week, only lost by four to a strong Kansas City team. Before that, the Lions took down the Chargers and Eagles in consecutive weeks. On average, Detroit is scoring 24 points per game on 401 yards of offense while allowing 24 points per game on 418 yards. Green Bay was victorious against the Cowboys a week ago, but fell to the Eagles at home the week before. On average, the Packers are scoring 24 points per game on 354 yards of offense while allowing 19 points per game on 397 yards. Although underdogs, the Lions have won four straight against the Packers, including last year’s 31-0 slaughter at Lambeau. Aaron Rodgers is on a four-game streak of throwing for at least 300 yards on Monday Night Football, but he’ll be without his top target, Davonte Adams, who remains sidelined with turf toe. Through four games, Matthew Stafford has thrown for 1,122 yards, nine touchdowns, and two picks. |
