Falcons vs Lions

1:00 PM EST

8-Unit best bet on the Falcons plus the 3.5 points

Betting on dogs in the first four weeks of the regular season that are priced as 6.5 or fewer points and facing a non-playoff team from last season that also won two or more of their last games in the previous season have gone 22-13 SU and 29-6 ATS for 83% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

Houston vs Jacksonville

1:00 EST

EverBank Stadium, Jacksonville, FL

8-Unit Best Bet on the Texans plus the points.

Betting on road dogs of 3.5 to 10 points that are scoring an average of 28 or more points and did not make the playoffs in the previous season have earned a highly profitable 33-64-1 SU record averaging a +450 dog bet on the money line and a 64-30-4 STS record for 68% winning bets  over the past 10 seasons. Not one season posted a losing money result following the discipline of this betting system.

Currently, the line is giving 7.5 points to the Texans and suggest placing 6-Units preflop at +7.5 points and look to get +10.5 points during the first half of action for the remining 2-Units.

Ole Miss vs Alabama

10-UNIT BEST BET on the Alabama Crimson Tide minus the points.

With a total of 56 points and a line favoring Alabama by 7 points reflect s an Alabama 31.5 24.5 in Tuscaloosa. My predictive models show an 86% probability that Alabama will score at least 28 points and in past games in which they did score 28+ points they have gone 113-6 SU for 95% winners and 75-41-3 ASTS for 65% winning bets under head coach Nick Saban. Alabama is 15-1 SU and 12-4 ASTS for 75% under Saban in conference games and having suffered a loss on the season and scoring at least 28 points. If that loss was at home, he has gone 11-2 SU and 10-3 ASTS for 78% winning bets. He is also 18-9 STS for 67% winners coming off two or more ats losses.

Mississippi is just 14-40 SU and 16-37-1 ATS for 30% when allowing 28 or more points and 11-35 SU and 14-31-1 ATS for 31% when facing an SEC foe since 2014.

Alabama has issues on offense and there is no doubting it, but the market has overreacted in a significant fashion. More than two months ago, this game had Alabama lined as a 15.5-point favorite and now has plummeted to -7. Did everyone forget just how good this defense is this season. In each of the previous negative starts to the season in which Saban’s team have struggled out of the gate they did successfully make the adjustments and fixed the problems on both sides of the ball and came out with a performance that reminds of us of who the Tide are: winners of 10 National Champions, twice as many as any one else. They covered the spread by an average of 7 PPG in these situations and my predictive model is expecting the same outcome.

New Orleans vs Carolina

8-Unit Best Bet on the Carolina Panthers plus the points

No more than a 3-Unit Parlay Under in this game and Under in the second game, which is Cleveland vs Pittsburgh

Betting on underdogs of three or fewer points that are facing a conference foe that was not in the playoffs last season has earned a 32-22 SU record and 34-19-1 ATS mark good for 64% winners since 1992.

Of 82 head-to-head series in NFL history to have included at least 50 regular-season meetings, this is the only one which is currently tied -- 28 wins apiece. The Panthers have won three of the last four meetings while holding the Saints to an average of 11.5 points. The Panthers committed three turnovers in a season-opening, 24-10 loss at Atlanta. However, Carolina had only six turnovers at home last season, tied with Detroit for fewest in the league. It was their fewest ever at home even though 2022 marking the first time they played nine home games in a season.

Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots

8:20 PM EST, Sunday Night Football

8-Unit best bet on the Patriots +2.5 points.

The Dolphins and Chargers each recorded 30 first downs in their Week 1 matchup (which Miami won, 36-34). It was the eighth regular-season NFL game since 1960 in which each team had 30 or more first downs and only the sixth such non-overtime game in that time. Mac Jones had a career-high 54 pass attempts in the Patriots' Week 1 loss to the Eagles. Including postseason play, the Patriots are 0-8 in games in which Jones has thrown 38 or more passes (16-9 when he has fewer pass attempts).

From the predictive model, we are looking for the Patriots to throw 30 or fewer passes and either gain more than 100 RY or gain more rushing yards than the Dolphins, and have no more than a single turnover. In past home games in which the Patriots met or exceeded these performance measures has led them to a highly profitable 37-1 SU and 30-7-1 ATS for 81% winning under Belichick. The Dolphins are 4-40 SU, 4-39-1 ATS when allowing these measures since 2000.

Since 2000, the Patriots are 18=7 SU and 19-6 ATS when coming off a home loss in which they threw 35 or more passes under Belichick.

San Francisco vs LA Rams

4:05 PM EST

8-Unit Best Bet on the Rams +7.5 points and a little sprinkle on the money line.

The 49ers are just 5-20 ATS following a great defensive effort in which they allowed 50 or fewer rushing yards. They are 14-28-1 ATS when on the road and coming off a game in which they allowed fewer than 10 points. They are 23-42 ATS in road games following a win by 14 or more points.

Teams playing in weeks 2 through 4 that are coming off a road win against a divisional foe are 40-14 SU for 74% and 34-19-1 ATS for 64% winning bets spanning the past 10 seasons. If our team is playing at home, the record moves higher to 33-9 SU for 79% winning bets and 28-13-1 ATS for 68% winning tickets over the past 10 seasons.

Puka Nacua became the fifth player in the last 60 years to record 10+ receptions in his NFL debut, along with Sid Banks in 1964 (13), Keke Coutee in 2018 (11), Anquan Boldin in 2003 (10) and Earl Cooper in 1980 (10).

The 49ers held the Steelers to only seven points in Week 1, generating five sacks and two interceptions. The only other season opener in the last 60 years that San Francisco's defense hit all these marks was in 2003 (7 pts allowed, 5 sacks, 3 INTs). The next game they faced the Rams on the road and lost that game 27-24.

San Diego Chargers vs Tennessee Titans

8-Unit Best Bet OVER the posted total currently priced at 46.5 points

Betting the Over in a game with a total of 45 or more points, with the road team coming off a game in which they and their foe both had 27 or more first downs has earned a 13-23 SU record for 36%, 14-22 ATS for 39%, and 26-10 Over for 72% winners. Plus, if the game is a divisional showdown, the record soars to an amazing 13-3 OVER for 81% winners since 2000.

Tannehill posted his worst passer rating in Tennessee's 16-15 loss in New Orleans, which also marked just the third game of his career and first since his rookie season with three interceptions and no touchdown passes. The Chargers (0-1) have their own motivation. They haven't won in their past two trips to Nashville and are coming off a 36-34 loss to Miami where they gave up a league-high 466 yards passing.

From the predictive model, we are looking for the Chargers and Titans to combine for more than 700 yards of offense. In past games when the Chargers and their foe gained over 700 total yards has seen the OVER go 127-39 for 77% and the Titans have seen the OVER go 98-26 for 79% winners and these are projections without Eckler in the game.

Green Bay Packers vs Atlanta Falcons

8-Unit Best Bet on the Packers plus 2.5 points

1:00 PM EST

Betting against non-playoff teams that won their last two games of the previous season and are favorites of not more than 6.5 points in weeks 2 through 4 have gone 7-15 SU and 4-18 ATS for 18% winners and failing to cover the spread by an average 6 points per game over the past 10 seasons.

Falcons are 3-17 ATS in home games coming off a double-digit win.

Green Bay (1-0) faces the Falcons (1-0) on Sunday, and their QB Jordan Love will be looking to build on the solid numbers he put up in a 38-20 victory at Chicago. He threw for 245 yards and three touchdowns in his second career start after backing up Rodgers the last three seasons. The Falcons find themselves in strange territory after opening the season with a 24-10 victory over Carolina. For the first time since the end of the 2017 season, Atlanta has a winning record. The Falcons are a young team that remains uncertain and in a rebuild mode. However, the Packers have the potential under Love, how got to study, watch, and learn from the departed Aaron Rogers and that showed immensely in Week 1.

The Falcons are building around their own young quarterback, Desmond Ridder, who passed for only 115 yards against the Panthers. Most notably, top receiver Drake Young failed to make a catch and was targeted only once and look for the Packers defense to minimize his catches today.

Kansas City Chiefs vs Jacksonville Jaguars

8-Unit Best Bet on the Jaguars plus the points

Consider betting 6.5 units preflop on the Jaguars and then look to add 1.5 units if the Chiefs score a TD first or the betting line gets to +7.5 during the first half of action.

Betting on home teams coming off a double-digit win to a divisional foe, total is 50 or more points and was in the playoffs in the previous season have produced a 34-6 SU record, 26-13-1 ATS for 67% winning bets since 1990.

Jags head coach Pederson is a remarkable 15-4 ATS as a home dog for his career and 13-4 ATS as a home dog of 6.5 or fewer points for his career.

Supporting a sprinkle on the money line is the fact that teams coming off a road win against a divisional foe in the first four weeks of the regular season have gone 40-14 SU, and 34-19-1 ATS for 64% winning bets over the past 10 years.

No Super Bowl winning team has started out the following season 0-2 since the 1999 Denver Broncos, who were in rebuild mode after their legendary QB John Elway retired. The Chiefs fell to the Lions in Week 1, making them the second defending champions since 2000 to lose their season opener to a team that missed the playoffs the previous year. The 2012 Giants lost to the Cowboys in their season opener after winning Super Bowl XLVI. The Giants went on to a dismal 9-7 record, 7-8-1 ATS in 2012.

The Jaguars have a great coach in Doug Pederson, who won the 2017 Super Bowl as the herd coach of the Eagles and their roster is built to make a run for the AFC Championship game.

Tennessee vs Florida

7:30 PM EST, Saturday, September 16

10-Unit best bet on the Florida plus the points

With a total of 58.5 points and a line favoring the No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers by 6 points implies a 32-26 Volunteer win. The scoring has the potential to be quite volatile with many lead changes, which will provide great betting opportunities as well. So, consider betting 6-Units preflop and then add 1-Unit if Tennessee scores a touchdown first (not a field goal or safety) or if Tennessee gets out to a 10-0 lead having scored a FG first. Or simply add the 2-units if the price makes Florida a double-digit underdog at any point during the first half.

Betting on teams ranked in the Top-20 (not Top-25) that are road favorites of 4.5 to 9.5 points and facing a conference foe in the first four weeks of the regular season has gone 29-11 SU (73%), but just 13-27 ATS for 33% winning bets. So, fading these ranked false favorites is a great betting opportunity. If the game occurs in the SEC conference, the home dog is an amazing and highly profitable 13-2 ATS for 87% winning bets sine 1994 and has not lost ATS since 2010 going a perfect 10-0 ATS for 100% winners.

No. 11 Tennessee opens Southeastern Conference play on the road Saturday night against a Florida offense that gained nearly 1,100 yards combined in their last two meetings. Tennessee defeated Florida last season, 38-33, after losing 16 of the previous 17 matchups against the Gators. This will be the first matchup the Volunteers are ranked in the AP Poll and the Gators are not since October 2, 1971, when Tennessee was then No. 12. Last week against the McNeese State Cowboys, Trevor Etienne, Montrell Johnson and Treyaun Webb became the first FBS trio this season to each record at least 10 rushes, 70 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in a single game. This is the only such game for the Gators over the past 25 seasons. The last time Tennessee visited the Swamp on Sept. 25, 2021, Florida held the No. 11 ranking and rolled up 505 yards of offense in a 38-14 victory.

The predictive models and applications. Suggest that Florida will score 27 or more points and have at least a three-minute edge in time-of-possession and run at least 8 more plays then Tennessee. In past games in which they met or exceeded these performance measures led Florida to a 24-1 record, 18-7 ATS for 72% winners and a 16-9 Over result. In past games in which Tennessee allowed these measures led them to a 4-21 SU record and 4-20-1 ATS mark for just 17% winning bets including an 18-6-1 Over result.

Minnesota Vikings vs Philadelphia Eagles

8-Unit Best Bet on the Vikings +7.5 points

8:20 PM EST

Betting on road teams in the first five weeks of the season in a matchup where both teams are playing on a short week, both teams had no individual player having more than 19 rushing attempts in the previous game have gone 16-14 SU, 18-10-2 ATS for 64% winning bets over the past 15 seasons. If our dog is priced between a 1 and 7-point underdog produces an 8-9 SU, 12-5 ATS mark good for 71% winning bets over the past 15 seasons.

Betting road underdogs that committed three or more turnovers in their previous game and facing a host that committed no more than a single turnover in their previous games has earned an outstanding 45-20-1 ATS record good for 69% winning bets over the past five seasons. In 2022, this system went 14-3 ATS for 82% winners. In 2021, it went 11-7 ATS for 61% winners. In 2020, it went 9-1 ATS for 90% winners. In 2019, it went 11-9-1 ATS for 55% winners. Point is that this system has generated tremendous results over the course of a season and remember that this system has had 20 ATS losses over the past five seasons. So, on any betting opportunity, it is exactly that – an OPPORTUNITY and not a LOCK.

Betting against the previous season Super Bowl loser in weeks 2 through 4 and facing a foe that is coming off an upset loss are 1-5 SU and 0-6 ATS losing to the spread by an average of 13 PPG over the past 10 seasons.

The Eagle’s defense is banged up and they were unable to generate any significant pass rush last week against the Patriots. Giving Cousins time to throw the ball and having numerous weapons to throw to starting with the NFL’s best receiver in Justin Jefferson is not a winning situation for the Eagles. Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell and safety Reed Blankenship are out with rib injuries while cornerback James Bradberry is in the concussion protocol. Defensive tackle Fletcher Cox is questionable with rib injuries. The Eagles already placed linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) on the injured reserve this week.

Replacing Bradberry is Josh Jobe, who has had just 24 totals snaps in the NFL, which by itself makes Justin Jefferson, rookie Jordan Addison, and TE TJ Hockenson primary targets and excellent Over Player prop bets for catches and/or betting Over receiving yards gained tonight.

If the Eagles elect to have Darius Slay mirror Jefferson, the first Slay will be out of position if lined up on the left side (defense perspective) and also puts Jobe in a new side of the field with no experience. The Vikings can utilize Jefferson as a decoy and force another backup at the free safety position, rookie Sydney Brown, to be used as deep help against Jefferson leaving Jobe on an island to cover Addison. Thius is a simple read for Cousins to make, especially if the Eagles defensive front does not get pressure on him with just their front four. If the Eagles need to bring linebacker blitzes, then look for Cousins to get the ball out quickly targeting Hockenson over the middle.

Buffalo Bills vs NY Jets
Monday, September 11, 2023
10-Unit bets bet on the NY Jets plus the points, currently priced as 2.5-point dogs

Now, this is a top-rated pick and we have seen an increase in scoring volatility with nearly 30% of games played seeing both teams enjoying 7 or more-point leads. Two games already in Week 1 saw this happen with the Detroit Lions scoring first and leading 7-0 and then the Chiefs roaring back to retake the lead 14-7. In the second game, the Vikings took a 10-3 lead after the Bucs opened the scoring 3-0 and then tied the game at the half and took the lead in the third quarter 17-10. This game has the potential for a similar back and forth type of scoring volatility so if it does happen let it work in your favor.

Consider betting 8-Units on the Jets preflop and then if they fall behind by 7 points on the basis of a Bill touchdown to start the scoring add another unit plus the points, and if that lead goes to 10-0 or 14-0 then add the final unit plus the points. I am not suggesting this will happen, but if it does jump on it as another betting opportunity, in my opinion.

Aaron Rogers is back with his former OC Nathaniel Hackett and former Packer’s WR Allen Lazard and WR Randall Cobb. The last time Rogers had an elite defensive unit playing with the Packers as back in 2010, which is also the year of the only Super Bowl ring Rogers has ever had. More, the Jets last season allowed the second fewest yards-per-play at 4.8 and just a couple of hundredths higher than the Philadelphia Eagles. So, even though this is the first game of the regular season, this Jets team – at least on paper – is much better than last year’s edition.

Divisional dogs in week 1 action are 15-13-1 SU and 18-11 ATS over the past five seasons. Home dogs over the past five years have gone 5-3-1 SU and 7-2 ATS over the past five seasons, 9-6-2 SU and 13-4 ATS for 77% winning bets over the past 10 seasons, and 20-19-2 SU and 26-15 ATS over the past 25 seasons. If our dog is priced at just 2.5 points or less, they have gone 9-2 SUATS for 82% winners over the past 25 seasons.

Rodgers is 6-0 ATS as a home dog and 43-27 ATS facing a divisional foe for his career. Favorites playing on Week 1 and on MNF have gone a terrible 14-11 SU and 7-16-2 ATS for 36% winners since 2009. Plus, if the MNF game is facing off divisional foes, the favorite is on a 5-5 SU record and 2-7-1 ATS for 78% winning bets over the past 15 seasons. If the favorite is taking on a host that had a losing record last season, the favorites are a horrid 3-9 ATS for 25% winning bets.

From the predictive model, one of the high probability projections call the Bills to have the same or more turnovers than the Jets. Favorites on MNF in week 1that had the same or more turnovers when on to post a 2-7-1 ATS record for 22% winners. The Jets are also 12-3 ATS as a home dog hosting the Bills and 8-1 ATS for 89% winners when hosting the Bills as a home dog and priced at 7.5 or fewer points.

The Flyboys are 71-12 SU and 69-13-1 ATS in home games in which they have scored 24 or more points and had the same or fewer turnovers in games played over the past 20 seasons and 5-2 SU and 6-1 ATS for 86% winners over the past five seasons.

Take the Jets and remember always to be with your head and never over it and may all the wins be yours.

LA Rams vs Seattle Seahawks
Week 1
Sunday, September 10, 2023
8-Unit best bet on the LA Rams plus the points, currently priced as 5.5-point dogs.

Let’s look at some of the supporting betting algorithms for this bet on the Rams.

If our team is priced as a road dog, they have gone on to produce a 5-10 SU record and highly profitable 12-3 ATS mark good for 80% winning bets.

Betting on dogs in Week 1 facing a divisional rival have gone 22-21-2 SU and 31-12-2 ATS for 72% winning bets covering the spread by an average of 5 PPG. If our dog is priced as 6.5 or fewer points, they have earned a 19-14-1 SU mark and 24-8-2 ATS for 75% winning bets and if a priced as a home dog of 6.5 or fewer points an outstanding 7-4-1 SU and 9-2-1 ATS for 82% winning bets covering by an average of 8.3 PPG.

Tampa Bay Bucs vs Minnesota Vikings
Week 1

Sunday, September 10, 2023
8-Unit best bet on the Bucs plus the points, currently priced as 6-point dogs.

Let’s look at some of the supporting betting algorithms for this bet on the Rams. Betting on any team in Week 1 that won two or more games last season than the season prior and facing a foe that was in the playoffs last season, that won at least two more games last season than our team, and our team had a losing record last season have earned a 16-24 straight-up (SU) record and 27-13 ATS for 68% winning bets over the past 20 seasons. If our team is priced as a road dog, they have gone on to produce a 5-10 SU record and highly profitable 12-3 ATS mark good for 80% winning bets.

From the predictive models, there is high probability that the Bucs will outgain the Vikings in total yards in this game. In past games over the past five season, teams that are priced as road underdogs and outgain their foes have gone on to a highly profitable 231-92-5 ATS for 72% winning bets. The Vikings are 6-6 SU and 3-9 ATS for 25% winners when outgained as a home favorite over the past 10 seasons.

Philadelphia Eagles vs New England Patriots

Week 1

8-Unit best bet on the Patriots plus the points currently at +4.5 points.

The Super Bowl loser generally starts the next season off with a bit of a hangover or perhaps it is more over confidence knowing they are a Super Bowl contending type of team. The Patriots had an off season by many standards, and they did add quite a few solid pieces to fill voids and weakness from last year’s roster.

The Super Bowl loser is just 2-10 ATS when playing on the road in Week 1 spanning the past 20 seasons and 1-5 if a road favorite of at least 2 points. Coach Belichick is 29-15 ATS as a dog of 3.5 to 9.5 points, 57-37 ATS as a dog for his career, 102-65 Ats in games played in the first half of the regular season.

From the predictive models, we are expecting the Patriot to score 21 or more points, their defense to hold the Eagles passing game to 250 or fewer net passing yards and for the Patriots to gain at least 4 yards-per-carry. In past games in which the Patriots met or exceeded these performance measures saw them go an impressive 100-15 SU and 87-27-12 ATS for 76% winning bets and 67-4 SU and 53-17-1 ATS for 76% winning bets if playing at home in Gillette Stadium.

The ’spine’ of the Eagles defense is the weakest part of their unit entering the season. They have had numerous personnel changes within the unit due to free agency and it is rare that any team can have solid chemistry and communication early on in the season. They also have five defensive starters aged 30 or more and the wear and tear of a long-standing career does take it’s toll on the human body. Two of those players re at the cornerback position with Darius Slay, who is still one of the best entering the season and James Bradberry on the right side, who was acquired as a cap casualty from the Giants.

Last season, 12.0 of Matthew Judon's 15.5 sacks were recorded in the first half of games, most in the NFL. Overall, Judon's 28.0 total sacks since the start of the 2021 season are tied for the most in that span behind T.J. Watt.

Tampa Bay Bucs vs Minnesota Vikings

Week 1

Sunday, September 10, 2023
8-Unit best bet on the Bucs plus the points, currently priced as 6-point dogs.

Let’s look at some of the supporting betting algorithms for this bet on the Rams. Betting on any team in Week 1 that won two or more games last season than the season prior and facing a foe that was in the playoffs last season, that won at least two more games last season than our team, and our team had a losing record last season have earned a 16-24 straight-up (SU) record and 27-13 ATS for 68% winning bets over the past 20 seasons. If our team is priced as a road dog, they have gone on to produce a 5-10 SU record and highly profitable 12-3 ATS mark good for 80% winning bets.

From the predictive models, there is high probability that the Bucs will outgain the Vikings in total yards in this game. In past games over the past five season, teams that are priced as road underdogs and outgain their foes have gone on to a highly profitable 231-92-5 ATS for 72% winning bets. The Vikings are 6-6 SU and 3-9 ATS for 25% winners when outgained as a home favorite over the past 10 seasons.

Houston Texans vs Baltimore Ravens

8-Unit best Bet on the Texans plus the 9.5-points

Consider betting 6-Units preflop taking the points and then look to add 2-units at +14.5 points during the first half of action. Scoring volatility reached a new high last season and the trend has been moving higher in each of the past five seasons. So, let the back and forth scoring that is prevalent in a typical NFL game work in your favor.

Welcome to the start of the NFL season. I am coming off three strong seasons hitting 64% ATS as documented by SportsMemo and SportsCapping and others. I look to match those results and even do better, if possible, but please, there are no guarantees that will become reality. I am not being negative in the least, but being real with you and being transparent that sports gambling involves risks and events in games that are not predictable. Some will go in our favor, and some will not. I am confident to say that I am looking forward to another profitable season because have been profitable for my clients in 9 of the past 10 seasons in both College Football and the NFL. We won our first NFL bet with the Detroit Lions as a dog winning in outright fashion over the KC Chiefs.

We are 12-5 ATS for 71% winning bets through two weeks of college football and 68% on 79-38 ATS record spanning the last three seasons as documented by sportsmemo and sports capping.

Betting on underdogs in the first three weeks of the regular season had a porous defense that allowed 390 or more total yards per game in the previous season have earned a solid 45-25-2 ATS record good for 64.3% winning bets since 2010. If our dog is play on the road they soar to 30-12-1 ATS for 71.4% winning bets since 2010. In addition, if our road dog is priced between 3.5 and 9.5 points, the record soars to 19-5 ATS for 79.2% winning bets since 2010.

Betting on dogs of 6.5 or fewer points in the first four weeks of the season that are facing a host that did not make the playoffs but did win their last two games of the regular season in the previous season are 9-3 SU and 11-1 ATS for 92% winning bets over the past five seasons of action. Over the past 10 seasons, the record has been a highly profitable 22-14 SU and 29-6-1 ATS for 83% winning bets and over the past 20 seasons a record of 46-46 SU and 60-27-5 ATS for 69% winning bets.

Dogs in a week 1 divisional matchup are 22-21-23 SU, 31-12-2 ATS for 72% winning bets that have covered the spread by an average of 5.5 PPG and if the dog is priced at 6.5 or fewer points, the record goes to 19-14-1 SU and 24-8-2 ATS for 75% winning bets.

Line: Wisconsin -6 | Total:59 points

8-UNIT BEST BET on Wisconsin minus the points

This is a matchup between the Big Ten and PAC-12 in week 2 that will be televised nationally on ABC. Wisconsin got off to a low start in week 1 under new coach Luke Fickell before the offense took flight in a 38-17 win over the Buffalo Bulls. Wisconsin failed to cover the spread priced as 27.5-point home favorites. The Bulls trailed by only four points at the half, but were outscored by 24-7 in the second half.

Wisconsin inexplicably lost 17-14 at home to Washington State in Week 3 priced as 17.5 point favorites so revenge is a factor that will prevent them from overlooking them a second consecutive year. Washington State has played in a bowl game seven straight seasons and eight of the past nine. However, the coaching staff has it’s third different offensive and defensive coordinator in as many seasons. Despite the fact that they have former OC Ben Arbuckle, who developed the 8th best offense in college football that averaged just under 500 Yards-Per-Game, it takes time for any offense to learn a new system without any game experience.

On defense the problem worsens for Washington State having just five returning starters from a unit that allowed seven foes 20 or fewer points. So, it is not realistic to expect a rebuilding defense to have the potential to stop a Wisconsin air raid offense that returns 10 starters including quarterback Tanner Mordecai, who passed for 72 touchdowns in his past two seasons. Wisconsin has three outstanding starting receivers (Chimere Dike, Bryson Green, and Will Pauling) and added 13 quality players form the transfer portal.

From my predictive models, expect Wisconsin to score 28 or more points and gain at least 6 yards-per-play in this game. In past road games when they have met or exceeded these performance measures has led them to a 24-2 SU record and a 22-3-1 ATS mark since 2006. Since 2018 or five seasons, they have gone 8-0 SU and ATS.

Texas vs Alabama

7:00 PM EST, September 9, 2023

8-UNIT best bet on Texas plus the points currently priced at 7.

If Alabama scores first in this game, consider adding no more than 1-unit on the money line.

Texas head coach Sarkisian is 25-10 ATS in games with a total between 49.5 and 56 for his career. He knows what championship teams look like having been at the helm at USC in 2003 when they won the National Championship and as the offensive coordinator for Alabama in their championship season in 2020.

Betting on dogs between 3.5 and 9.5 points after a game in which they outgained their foes by 175 or more total yards and has an experienced QB under center while facing a foe with a new and inexperienced QB at the helm has earned a 55-22 ATS record for 72% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

Quinn Ewers is the starting QB for Texas and was the #1 5-star quarterback in the 2021 recruiting class. He had a largely up and down season, but now has that valuable game experience under his belt. Remember, Texas lost at home to Alabama as 17.5 underdogs on a last second FG last year. They have superior depth at wide receiver this season with returning starter Xavier Worthy and the top-rated WR in the transfer portal in AD Mitchell from Georgia. Even more important is that the Longhorns return four of the five offensive linemen, and that unit has tremendous chemistry, which is a significant advantage for them against the ‘Bama defense. If the models and my research are correct, I do believe Texas wins this game outright.

Betting on home teams that are coming off a game in which they gained 7.25 or more yards per play in their previous game and in a game with both teams having eight or more returning defensive starters on their team has earned a solid 79-39 ATS record good for 67% winning bets over the past 10 seasons and is a consistent 56-28 ATS for 67% winners over the past five seasons.

The Aggies have played their last six games without throwing an interception, which is the best current streak in the FBS. Problem for the Aggies is that these streaks rarely continue past six or seven games. Colbie Young had four receptions for 79 yards and caught his sixth career touchdown in his ninth career game with Miami. Among all power conference wideouts with less than 10 career games, Young has the most receiving touchdowns (six), second most catches (36) and second most receiving yards (446).

From the predictive models, Miami is expected to have the same or fewer turnovers and hold the Aggies to less than 100 yards rushing. In past games in which Miami achieved these performance measures has seen them go 42-6 SU and 31-15-2 ATS for 67.4% winning bets.  

Consider betting 80^ of your bet amount preflop and then look to add the remaining 20% if Notre Dame scores a TD first or takes a 10-0 lead if their first score was a field goal.

Betting on an unranked home underdogs of 7.5 or fewer points in the first two weeks of the season and with a posted total of 50 or more points has earned a solid 12-9 SU record and a 14-7 ASTS mark good for 67% winning bets since 2008. Now, if they are home dogs of between 3.5 and 9.5 points, they do even better with a 9-24 SU record and an impressive 16-7 ATS mark for 70% winning bets since 2008.

Teams have not played a game since 2017, but Notre Dame is riding a 32-3 SU record against the ACC, but has produced a 18-17 ATS mark over that span since 2017. Th efact that this trend has matured over many years actually becomes one that will be prone to reverse course with ND losing more ATS and SU then previously has been attained. Moreover, ND is just 2-112 ATS in road games after leading their last two games by 14 or more points at the half dating back to 2007.

Betting on home underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points, was a bowl team from the previous season has earned a 100-52 ATS mark for 65% winning bets. Plus, dogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points that are facing a foe that is coming off a home win of 17 or more points and had won 60% or more of their games in the previous season has earned a 50-20-2 ATS mark good for 72% winning bets over the past 20 seasons.

Detroit Lions vs Kansas City Chiefs

8-Unit best Bet on the Lions plus the 4.5-points

Consider betting 5-Units preflop taking the points and then look to add 2-units at +7.5 points and 1-Unit at +9.5 points. Scoring volatility reached a new high last season and the trend has been moving higher in each of the past five seasons. The Chiefs have played in the most games (32) in which they and their opponents had a 7 or more-point lead over the past five seasons and I believe this game tonight will be another one of those types of up and down games.

Welcome to the start of the NFL season. I am coming off three strong seasons hitting 64% ATS as documented by SportsMemo and SportsCapping and others. I look to match those results and even do better if possible, but please, there are no guarantees that will become reality. I am not being negative in the least, but being real with you and being transparent that sports gambling involves risks and events in games that are not predictable. Some will go in our favor, and some will not. I am confident to say that I am looking forward to another profitable season because have been profitable for my clients in 9 of the past 10 seasons in both College Football and the NFL.

Betting on underdogs in the first four weeks of the regular season that are facing a foe that won six or more of their last eight games of the previous season and won 75% or more of their games last season has earned a 38-27 SU record and a solid 52-32-1 ATS for 62% winning bets. If our team is priced as a dog of 6.5 or more points.

Clemson vs Duke
Monday, September 4, 2023
8-Unit best bet on the Duke Blue Devils plus the points, currently priced at 13 points.

Duke second-year head coach Mike Elko has 18 returning starters with 10 on offense including last year’s quarterback, Riley Leonard. After a three-win 2021 season that include losses in their last eight games, former head coach David Cutcliffe was dismissed. Elko turned things around immediately winning 8 regular season games and then won 30-13 in the Military Bowl over UCF.

This will be the first time since 2018 that these two ACC members have met. Since 1980, Duke is 5-25 SU and 14-16 ATS with all but three games taking place prior to the 2008 season. So, not much history between these programs, but given a chance to showcase their program, you can be sure that Duke and its’ fans will be fully prepared and ramped up to pull off an upset.

With a total of 55.5 points and Clemson favored by 13 points implies a 34.25-21.25 Clemson win. However, my predictive models show a high probability that Duke will score 27 or more points and average 6 or more yards-per-play. There are several projections that result in Duke’s offense gaining more YPP than Clemson. In past games in which Duke scored 27 or more points and averaged 6 or more YPP they went on to a highly profitable 12-3 SU and 11-4 ATS for 73% winning bets over the past 5 seasons. If they score 27+ points and gain more YPP than their foe, the record goes to 16-2 SU and 15-3 ATS for 83% winning bets.

Florida State vs LSU
8-Unit best bet on the Seminoles plus the points.

I suggest making a 7-Unit bet using the spread and then look for LSU to score first or retake the lead during the first half of action and then bet 1-unit on the Seminoles using the money line.

FSU head coach Mike Norvell returns 17 starters with nine on defense. The Seminoles started 22 freshman at some point in games played last season and that experience is a monumental advantage and provides superior depth at the skill positions in this matchup.

Last year, the Seminoles played 22 freshmen ranking third most in college football and ranked third nationally scoring an average 10.4 PPG in the first quarter of action. Jordan Travis, a senior transfer from Louisville, returns under center after having a great 2022 campaign completing 64% of his 226 passes for 3,214 yards, 24 touchdowns, and an outstanding 160.1 quarterback rating (QBR). What I am most impressed this coming into the season are the stable of Seminole running backs starting with red shirt junior transfer Trey Benson, red shirt freshman Rodney Hill, red shirt junior, Lawrence Toafili, red shirt junior transfer Caziah Holmes, and red shirt sophomore CJ Campbell, JR.

After transferring from Oregon, Benson ran for 990 rushing yards, averaging 6.4 yards-per-rush (YPR) including nine touchdowns (TD). He accounted for 1,156 yards from scrimmage and 120 TD. I believe Hill is going to have a breakout season and is listed as the second RB on the Seminole depth chart. He has elite quickness, speed, and elusiveness that may give the Seminoles two 1,000 yard ground gainers this season. The most significant addition to the Seminole offense is the junior transfer Keon Coleman from Michigan State, who has NFL size at 6-4 and 215 pounds and can be consistently covered in man coverage schemes. For MSU last season, he caught a team high 58 balls for a team-high 798 receiving yards, averaging 13 yards-per-catch (YPC) including team-high eight receiving TD.

From the predictive models, we are looking for FSU to score 28 or more points and have the same or fewer turnovers. In past games in which FSU met or exceeded these measures has produced a 18-0 record and 14-4 ATS record good for 78% winning bets. In games in which LSU allowed 28+ points and had the same or more turnovers has led to a 4-9 record and a 3-10 ATS record for 23% winners in games played over the past five seasons.

Thursday – Nebraska vs Minnesota
8-Unit Best Bet on Nebraska +7.5 points.

·      Betting on road underdogs facing a conference foe using the MONEY LINE

·      Our dog is priced at 10 or fewer points

·      Game occurs in the first three weeks of the season

·      Our dog is coming off a season in which they allowed 400 or YPG

·      26-26 (50%) | 315 ML wager | 310% ROI past 20 seasons

Subset: If our road warrior lost by 3 to 9 points in the previous meeting

9-12 (43%) | 12-5 ATS (71%) last 20 seasons

At this point, it appears the Cornhuskers will have their third different starting QB in as many seasons. Former Georgia tech QB, Jeff Sims transferred to Nebraska in December and had a solid Spring football season. He will have a much-improved offensive line in front of him led by ASU transfer and Center Ben Scott.  The offensive scheme will be the spread option under head coach Matt Rhule. Nebraska will run the ball from many different pre and post-snap alignments and create opportunities for short pass routes, which in turn will set up the play action pass play in man coverage situations. This ball-controlled scheme will give the defense time to rest between sets of downs, which is something that unit has not benefitted from in many seasons.

Sims will have a solid set of WR to throw the ball two starting with a duo of Senior-transfers. The ‘X’ wideout is Marcus Washington, who transferred from the Texas Longhorns after the 2021 season. For Nebraska last season he played in 12 games and caught 31 balls for 471 receiving yards, but only one TD. Billy Kemp has transferred from Virginia and is in position to excel in this ball-controlled offensive scheme. He will be in the slot and is quick enough at 5-9 and 170 lbs. to create separation from defenders as he did in the ACC. He had 137 receptions in the 2020 and 2021 seasons. The third WR is Zavier Betts, who is a red-shirt sophomore, who had 20 receptions in 12 games for 417 receiving yards.  Behind them is a core of WR featuring seven new freshman all with the potential to make sizable contributions.

The Gophers return just eight starters with four on offense and defense each this season. They are in a rebuilding type of season. Their defense ranked 41st nationally allowing 23.2 PPG and they lost a lot of talent from that unit that is not replaceable in the early weeks of a season for a program not named Georgia. So, I do strongly believe Nebraska will eb able to move the ball effectively and chew up the game clock and earn a sizable time-of-possession advantage leading to a potential outright win.

A Situational Betting System
The following betting system has earned a solid 296-204-1 ATS record good for 59.2% ATS winning bets over the past 20 seasons. The requirements are to bet on conference road teams with a total of 50 or fewer points and is priced as a dog between 7 and 13.5 points. What is truly great about this system is that it has not had a losing record season since 2004 and that is 20 season folks. If our road dog has lost the four consecutive games to the current opponent, the record soars to an amazing 32-11 ATS record good for 74.4% winning bets over the past 20 seasons.
     This is one of my more than 5000 betting systems and algorithms that I have developed and tested over my 28-year career. I have put together an optimized packed of 103 betting systems, which the aforementioned is one of them, and is akin to a well-managed optimized 401-K plan. By diversifying the risk of a single bet and spreading it out over the course of many diverse betting situations that teams and respective matchups find themselves has produced exceptionally profitable results. 

Head coach Rhule is a solid 43-18-1 ATS when facing a conference foe and is 28-12 ATS when on the road for his career.

Thursday – Florida Gators vs Utah Utes
8-Unit Best Bet on Florida +4.5 points

The ranked Utah Utes will take on the SEC-member Florida Gators in Week 1 action set to kickoff at 8:00 PM EST, Thursday evening.

Ranked teams of between a 7.5-point dog and 7.5-point favorite are 44-41 SU (52%) and 35-47-3 ATS (43%) in Week 1 action. If they won 10 or more games in the previous season, they have underperformed with a 26-22 SU record (54%0 and 19-27-2 ATS mark for just (41%), and the OVER has gone 28-18-2 for a solid 61% winning bets.

Let’s drill a bit deeper into the omnipotent database. In week 1 action ranked teams priced between a 7.5 dog and favorite and facing an unranked foe fall flat producing a 15-12 SU record and 7-19-1 ATS mark good for 27% winning bets. This implies that fading these falsely ranked teams, hits 73% winning bets. Not the situation for our matchup here but note for future reference that these Week 1 teams when priced as a dog have gone a terrible 0-4 ATS. If our road disrespected dog won fewer games in the previous season than the ranked foe, these dogs have earned an 11-15 record and a solid 18-7-1 ATS for 72% winning bets over the past 17 seasons and since Covid in 2020, this situational betting angle is a perfect 6-0 ATS.

Gator head coach Napier is 5-1 ATS pried as a dog and was 10-3 as a dog while at the helm of Louisiana Lafayette; 15-4 ATS for his career. Utes head coach Whittingham is just 21-35 ATS for 38% when priced as a 3.5-to-9.5-point favorite. If those games occurred during the first four weeks, Whittingham is just 4-9 ATS for 31%.

From the predictive models, we are looking for Florida to score 24 or more points and have a 5 or more-minute advantage in time-of-possession. In past games in which Florida has met or exceeded these performance measures, they have gone on to a 45-2 SU record and 35-12 ATS mark good for 75% winning bets and if the game is on the road and they are priced as the dog, 4-2 SU and a perfect 6-0 ATS. When Utah has allowed these performance measures, they have gone 4-16 SU and 3-16-1 ATS for 16%.

Monday – Seattle Mariners vs CWS
8-Unit best bet on the Seattle Mariners using the run line.

Start Time is 8:10 PM EST.

Consider betting 7-Units pre-flop using the -1.5-run line and then look for the CWS to score first or retake the lead at any point during the first three innings of action to add the 1-unit on the money line.

Betting on favorites of -150 or greater on the money line with the run line that is starting a pitcher with an ERA of 4.25 or lower on the season and is facing a struggling foe that is scoring just 4.25 or fewer RPG has produced a 23-13 ML record and a 20-16 Run Line record averaging a +105 RL wager and earning a 17% ROI since 2016.

The Mariners have caught fire since putting all-star Julio Rodriguez in the leadoff spot of the batting order having won five consecutive games and have won 15 of their last 18 games to close to within three games of Al Division-leading Texas Rangers and with 2.5 games of the reigning world champion Houston Astros. The Mariners hold the third wild card berth by just a ½-game over the Toronto Blue Jays and by three games over the surging Boston Red Sox.

The CWS are playing out the remainder of the season and have lost 12 of their last 17 games and allowed 30 runs to the Colorado Rockies in their three set over the weekend. Starting tonight for the CWS is Touki Toussaint, who is just 1-5 in eight starts with a 5.26 ERA and 1.519 WHIP. Over his last three starts he has posted a 0-2 record with a 6.91 ERA and a 1.954WHIP.

Boston vs Houston

Baltimore Ravens vs Washington Commanders

8-Unit NFLX best bet on the Commanders +1 or the money line.

Betting on any team priced between the 3’s that is coming off a win by six or fewer points has earned a 65-32-2 ATS record for 67% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

Fully aware that Baltimore is on a once-in a lifetime 24-0 SU run in the preseason, but this is the first time my predictive models have had targeted a foe to bet on when facing the Ravens. The Commanders have the motivation to win a second preseason game looking to generate much-needed fan support after so many dismal and pathetic seasons under the previous regime. So, let’s go with the Commanders and look for the SU win in this one.

Chicago Sky vs Atlanta Dream
8-Unit best bet on the Sky, who are priced as 2.5-point underdogs.

Betting on road teams that are averaging 76 or more PPG and facing a foe that is also scoring 76 or more PPG and is coming off a humiliating loss of 15 or more points has earned a 48-31-5 ATS record for 61% winning bets over the past five seasons. Both teams are coming off games and have had 4 days of rest to prepare. In this situation, the query improves to 31-14-1 ASTS for 69% winning bets over the past five seasons.

Cincinnati vs Atlanta
8-Unit best bet on the Falcons minus the points, currently priced a 6-point favorites.

Betting on favorites that gained 5.5 or fewer passing yards per attempt and taking on a foe that allowed 73% pass completion in their previous game has earned a 24-8-2 ATS record for 75% winning bets in the NFL preseason.

From the predictive models, the Falcons are 18-3-1 ATS when they have scored 21 to 28 points in a preseason game. The Bengals are an anemic 4-16 ATS for just 20% when they have gained between 250 and 299 total yards in a preseason game.

Dallas Wings vs Connecticut Sun
8-Unit best bet on the Wings, who are priced as 3.5-point underdogs. A sprinkle on the money line is a solid addition if the Wings get down by 10 or more points during the first half of action.

Betting on road underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points that has a scoring differential between -3 and +3 PPG and facing a foe that are outscoring their foes by three to seven PPG and are coming off a game scoring 80 or more points has earned a n 18-10 ATS record for 64% winning bets since 2011.

Thursday: Atlanta Dream vs Seattle Storm

8-Unit best bet on the Dream plus the points.

Betting on teams that are facing a losing record team that are coming off a double-digit home loss and is non-conference foe have earned a solid 49-17 SU (74%) record and 43-21-2 ATS for 67% winning bets. If our team is on the road, they have then gone 23-10 SUATS for 70% winners. Plus, if more than 15 or more games of the regular season have been completed the record improves to 16-7 (70%) and 17-6 ATS for 74% winning bets.

Blue Bombers vs Edmonton Elks (Thursday)

8-UNIT BEST BET on the Elks plus the double-digit amount of points

I recommend placing 85% of your normal bet size on the Elks pre flop (before the game starts) and is currently offered at 12 points and then add the remaining 15% if the Blue Bombers score first during the first half of action.

Betting on winless teams that are coming off a horrid game scoring nine or fewer points have gone 6-9 SU and 10-5 ATS for 67% covering the spread by an average of 6.7 PPG.

Thursday – Kansas City Royals vs Boston Red Sox
8-Unit best bet on the Red Sox using the -1.5-run line currently with -125 juice. Start Time is 7:10 PM EST.

Consider splitting this 8-Unit amount into two parts consisting of a 6-Unit amount using the -1.5-run line and then add a 2-Unit amount on the -1.5-run line if the Red Sox fall behind at any point during the first three innings of action.

Betting on home teams using the -1.5-run line that has an on-base-percentage of 0.260or lower spanning their last three games and with their bullpen struggling to an ERA of 7.00 or worse over their last 10 games has produced an outstanding 50-26-1 record for 67% winning bets over the past five seasons.

Thursday: Minnesota Lynx vs Indiana Fever

8-Unit best bet on the Lynx minus the points 

Betting on road favorites in matchup of faster than average pace with both teams coming into the game averaging 62 or more shots per game, after game number 20 has been played and with our road favorite coming off a game in which they made 50% or more of their shot attempts has produced a 67-27-2 ATS mark good for 64% winning bets since 2011. This algorithm betting system has never had a losing record season.

New England Patriots vs Houston Texans
August 10, 2023 | 10-Unit Best Bet on the Patriots plus the three points and this bet is valid if the Patriots remain an underdog of not greater than 6.5 points

It has not lost, though, since 2016, going a remarkable 16-0 ATS and covering the spread by an average of 9.81 points-per-game.

Atlanta Dream vs Las Vegas Aces
10-Unit best bet on Atlanta Dream plus the double-digit of points over the Aces.

Betting on a road team that played Over the total by 18 or more points in each of their two previous games in games played from May 1 to the end of the regular season has earned a 17-17 record, 22-11-1 ATS for 67% winning bets, and a solid 21-13 Over-Under record for 62%. If our road dog is priced at 6 or more points, they have gone just 3-9 SU, but 9-2-1 ATS for 82% winning bets and 8-4 Over for 67%. I four road dog is priced at any size dog and the total is at least 165 points, their record has gone 3-5 SU and 6-2 ATS and 7-1 Over-Under for 88% cashed tickets. Last, if our road dog played Over the total by 20 or more points in each of their last two games, they have produced a 3-8 SU record and 8-2-1 ATS mark good for 80% cashed tickets.

Hamilton vs Edmonton (CFL)

8-Unit best bet on Edmonton plus the 1.5 points or the money line when they take on Hasmilton tonight in CFL action.
Betting on underdogs that are coming off a loss of seven or fewer points to a divisional rival and is now facing a foe that is coming off an upset win has earned an outstanding 38-15-1 ATS for 72% winners over the past 10 seasons.
A second system has gone 12-12 SU on the money line and 16-8-1 ATS for 67% winning bets over the last 10 seasons. Bet on underdogs in July that are facing a foe coming off a win over a divisional foe.
From the predictive models, we are expecting Edmonton to score at least 21 points and have fewer turnovers than the Tiger Cats. In past home games when they have achieved this has sent to a highly profitable 37-3 SU record for 93% wins and 31-9 ATS for 78% winning bets.

Las Vegas Aces vs Minnesota Lynx
8-Unit best bet on the Las Vegas Aces minus the points
Betting on road favorites that are shooting at least 44% from the field for the season and facing a team that has shot 43% or better in each of their last three games has earned a solid 43-28-2 ATS record for 61% winning bets. If the road team is favored by 6.5 or more points, the record soars to 14-5 ATS for 74% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

WNBA: Minnesota Lynx vs Indiana Fever
8-Unit best bet on the Minnesota Lynx minus the points. Betting on teams that are revenging a hoe loss to the current opponent and are also coming off an upset win against a conference foe have earned a 23-8-2 ATS record good for 74% winning bets over the past five seasons.

The Lynx are in third place in the Western Conference with a 7-9 record while the Fever is in last place in the Eastern Conference with a 5-11 SU record. The Fever are on a four-game losing streak and have failed to cover the spread in the last two games. The Lynx have won four of their last five games and are riding a current three-game SUATS win streak. 

The predictive models expect the Lynx to score at least 80 points, make 43% or more of their shot attempts and get at least 10 offensive boards and in past games when they have met these performance measures in a home game has seen them go 61-4 SU and 50-14-1 ATS for 78% winning bets. 

Miami vs Boston  
8-Unit best bet on the Heat plus the points 
The Boston Celtics fell apart again, this time in Game 1 holding a 12-point lead early in the third quarter only to squander the lead and fall 12 points behind at the end of the stanza. Marcus Smart had 10 assists in the first quarter, none in the second, just one in the third, and mome in the fourth. Celtics head coach failed to even call a timeout during the third quarter collapse and his inexperience really showed against one of the best veteran head coaches in the NBA in Spoelstra. Jimmy Butler is not going to let his team think they accomplished what they set out do by earning a split in the first two games.  

From the predictive model, we are expecting Miami to shoot better than Boston and to have a better assist-to-turnover ratio. In past road games in which Miami met these performance measures has earned them a 63-11 SU record, 64-10 ATS mark (87%) winning bets in road games played in the past five seasons. In road playoff games, the Heat have gone 20-0 SU and 18-2 ATS for 90%. In playoff games, the Celtics are 1-11 SUATS when not shooting better than their foe and having the worse assist-to-turnover ratio spanning the past five seasons. 

 
Player Props for no more than 1-Unit Pizza money sized bets unless otherwise noted 
Max Strus Over 2.5 made 3-pointers –123 at BetMGM 
Jimmy Butler to record a double-double +390 at DraftKings 
Al Horford to commit at least 1 turnover –125 at BetMGM 

Golden State Warriors vs LA Lakers 
8-Unit Best Bet on the Warriors plus the points. My LIVE I-game strategy is to bet 60% preflop and then look to add 20% more at Warriors +6.5 and the remaining 20% at Warriors +9.5 points during the first half of action. I do like the Under for a 5-Unit amount too.  
  LeBron is 15-0 in games that close out a series, but this is the reigning world champion Warriors that still has Steph, Klay and Draymond in it. I have stated that I thought this series woud go 7 games despite the Warriors being down 3 games to 1. The Warriors have played 28 consecutive playoff series attaining at least one road win in every series.  
  The 7 seeds are 59-164 SU (27%), 85-135-3 ATS (39%) in the playoffs since 2002. A 7-seed has not made it to the Conference Finals since at least 2002. In a series in which the 7-seed was leading or was tied, they have gone 31-80 SU and 44-64-3 ATS for 41% and the Under has been solid at 63-45-3 for 58% winning tickets. From game-5 on, these 7-seeds are just 3-24 SU and 8-19 ATS. The Under is 18-5 for 78% winning tickets when favored.  

Since 2013, the Warriors are 9-3 SU (75%) and 10-2 ATS for 83% winners when facing elimination.  
 
 

Knicks vs Heat 
8-Unit Best Bet on the Heat minus the points. My in-game LIVE strategy is to bet 75% on the Heat preflop and then look to add 25% more on the Heat at pick-em or better.  
 
From my predictive models, we are expecting the Heat to shoot 48% or better from the field and have a better assist-to-turnover ratio. In past home games, in which the Heat met these performance measures has earned an outstanding 50-5 SU record and 45-10 ATS record for 82% winning bets over the past five seasons. 

LA Lakers vs Golden State Warriors 

8-Unit best bet on the Warriors minus the points. I like the strategy of betting 60% preflop at the current price and then looking to add 20% more at Warriors – 4.5 and Warriors –1.5 points. 

Betting on any team off a loss of three or fewer points to a divisional foe and with that foe having covered the spread in their last two games priced as a favorite has earned an outstanding 21-6 ATS for 78% winning bets over the past 27 seasons.  

Betting on any playoff team trailing in the series 3 games to one, coming off a heart-breaking loss by three or fewer points and is now the favorite up to and including -9.5 points has earned a perfect 7-0 SUATS record.  
 
Take the Warriors 
 

Boston vs Philadelphia Game-3 
8-Unit best bet on the 76ers plus the points, currently priced at +2 points.  
For live in-game betting consider betting 70% of your 8-Unit betting amount on the 76ers at the line offered at your book. Then, bet 15% on the 76ers at +5.5 points and 15% more at +7.5 points during the first half of action only. You are betting the full game lines during the first half of action. The reason we are not betting these two 15% amounts in the second half is simply that there is too little time remaining in the game to be right. It’s like trading options in the market on the S&P 500 and having a month till the contracts expire or less than 2 weeks. The value of your options will decay (Theta) much faster with just two weeks left till expiration just as the value of a second half LIVE bet will diminish the closer it gets to the final buzzer. Don’t be concerned with what Theta means and how it is calculated as I will present that in an upcoming university show. 

Philadelphia is 12-2 ATS revenging a road loss in games played this season, and 15-5 ATS when revenging a loss in which the foe scored 110 or more points this season. 
 

From the predictive models, we are looking for the 76ers to score 114 or more points and have a better assist-to-turnover ratio. In past games in which the 76ers met these performance measures have led them to post a 116-13 SU (90%) record and 97-31-1 ATS mark good for 76% winning bets over the past five seasons. If the game occurs after the all-star break and playoffs, the 76ers are 34-3 SU and 28-8-1 ATS. The Celtics have posted a money-losing 6-17 SU and 6-15-2 ATS record (29%) when allowing 114 or more points and the lower assist-to-turnover ratio in games played over the past five seasons.  
Bet on the 76ers and always bet with your head and not over it and may all the wins be yours! 

Baltimore vs Atlanta 

8-Unit best bet on the Braves using the –1.5 Run line  
 
Betting on any team that is coming off a three-game sweep of a divisional rival and is facing a foe from the other league (inter-league) has earned a solid 30-12 record averaging a –111 wager and producing a 33% ROI in games played over the past five seasons. The Run line is 15-9 63% averaging a –103 bet and a 30% ROI. 

Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics 
8-Unit best bet on the 76ers minus the points, currently priced at –9.5 points.  
(Repeat from yesterday) For those new to the service, thank you for trusting me and my 28 years of pro experience and looking to build strong long-lasting relationships with all of you. The 8-unit bet is your normal bet size, but I do highly recommend you make it 4% of your total bankroll. The 8-Unit best bet is the most common and is the foundation of my betting methods and strategies. The sacle for sides and totals ranges from 5 to 10-Units with 10-Units being akin to other’s Games of the month or Games of the Year. Even though the 10-Unit best bets have hit at 68.4% across all major sports and spanning more than 3 calendar years you must be disciplined and resist the temptation to bet more than what a 10-Unit betting amount is for you. So, if you bet $100 per unit, the 8-unit is $800 and the 10-unit $1000. Note, that there is a 25% increase in the amount wagered between the 8 and 10-unit bets. So, if you bet $100 per 8-unit wager, the 10-unit would be $125.00 and never more than $150 no matter what.  

     Player prop bets will range from 0.25% to 2% of your bankroll or $25.00 for the 2% bet if you are wagering $100 per 8-unit bet. 

     Pizza money bets mean that it is up to you to decide whether it is a plain pizza costing 0.25% or a full supreme double cheese, double pepperoni for $25.00 or 2% of the bankroll. (end of repeat intro) 

Let’s now get to the analytics, shall we?  

For live in-game betting consider betting 70% of your 8-Unit betting amount on the 76ers at the line offered at your book. Then, bet 15% on the 76ers at 14.5 points and 15% more at 17.5 points during the first half of action only. You are betting the full game lines during the first half of action.

Don’t be concerned with what Theta means and how it is calculated as I will present that in an upcoming university show. 

From the predictive models, we are looking for the 76ers to score 110 points and have a better, more efficient assist-to-turnover ratio. In past games in which the 76ers met these performance measures have led them to post a 57-7 SU record (89%) and 48-16 ATS mark good for 75% winning bets over the past three seasons. If the game occurs after the all-star break and playoffs, the 76ers are 24-1 SU and 19-6 ATS. The Celtics have posted a money-losing 25-31 SU and 20-36 ATS record (36%) when allowing 110 or more points and the lower assist-to-turnover ratio in games played over the past three seasons.  
Bet on the 76ers and always bet with your head and not over it and may all the wins be yours! 

Miami Heat vs NY Knicks 
8-Unit best bet on the Knicks minus the points, currently priced at –6.5 points. For those new to the service, thank you for trusting me and my 28 years of pro experience and looking to build strong long-lasting relationships with all of you. The 8-unit bet is your normal bet size, but I do highly recommend you make it 4% of your total bankroll.

Let’s now get to the analytics, shall we? In the second round of the NBA playoffs teams that lost Game-1 and are the lower seed (better regular season record) and are favored between 5 and 10 points in Game-2 have gone 16-2 SU and 14-4 ATS for 78% winning bets. This obviousy supports the bet on the Knicks. 

For live in-game betting consider betting 70% of your 8-Unit betting amount on the Knicks at the line offered at your book. Then, bet 15% on the Knicks at –2.5 points and 15% more at pick-em during the first half of action only. You are bettig the full game lines during the first half of action. The reason we are not betting these two 15% amounts in the second half is simply that there is too little time remaining in the game to be right. It Islike trading options in the market on the S&P 500 and having a month till the contracts expire or less than 2 weeks.

From the predictive models, we are looking for the Knicks to score 114 or more points and shoot 49% or better from the field. In past games in which the Knicks met these performance measures has led them to post a 36-9 SU record (80%) and 33-11-1 ATS mark good for 75% winning bets over the past three seasons. If the game occurs after the all-star break and playoffs, the Kicks are 6-1 SU and 6-1 ATS. Miami has posted a money-losing 11-35 SU and 10-36 ATS record (22%) when allowing 115 or more points and allowing a shooting percentage 49% or higher in games played over the past three seasons. If after the break and including playoffs 1-3 SU and ATS. 
 
Bet on the Miami Heat and always bet with your head and not over it and may all the wins be yours! 

Boston vs Atlanta 
Game-4 
8-Unit Best bet on the Boston Celtics minus the 6 points 
Betting on road favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points, who lost the last time they played this opponent and that opponent scored 100 or more points. The host is coming off a home win in which they scored 120 or more points and has earned an outstanding 34-8 SU 81% record and 29-13 ATS mark for 69% winning bets. This situational betting system has not had a losing season since 2004. If the game is taking place in the playoffs, our favorite is 7-2 ATS. 

Cleveland vs Knicks 
8-Unit best bet on the Knicks minus the points 
 
Betting on home teams in the same playoff round that are priced between a 3.5 dog and 3.5 favorite that defeated their foe in the previous game and with that foe shooting a horrid 25% from beyond the arc have gone 24-8 ATS for 75% since 2006. If our host is a favorite from pick-em to –3.5 points has earned an even better 18-4 ATS mark for 82% winners. 

From my predictive models, we learn that the Cavs are just 1-20 SU and 3-17-1 ATS for 15% when allowing 111 or more points and getting outrebounded by 10 or more boards in games played over the past three seasons. The Knicks are 26-8 SU and 27-7 ATS for 79% winning bets when outrebounding their foes by 10 or more boards and scoring 111 or more points in games played over the past three seasons. 

Nets vs 76ers 

8-Unit bets bet on the 76ers minus the points, currently priced at 10. 

The Nets had a game plan to double-team Joel Embiid and force the other 76ers on the floor to make perimeter shots and they sure came through with a franchise record 21 made 3-pointers. So, now that the Nets went all-in with that game plan and it failed, the alternative to not double-team Embiid could lead to an even worse outcome for the Nets.  

Over the past five playoff seasons, teams that have won between 45 and 55% of their games during the regular season and are trailing in the series are just 7-30 ATS for 19%. Playing on the home teams in Game-2 of an NBA Round 1 playoff series regardless if they are priced as a dog or favorite has gone 16-6 ATS for 73% winners over the past five seasons. Double digit favorites in the playoffs are 23-4 SU and 18-7-2 ATS for 72% winning bets over the past five seasons. 

From my predictive models, we are expecting the 76ers to score 115 or more points and shoot 48% or better from the field. In past home games in which the 76ers met or exceeded those performance measures, has led them to a 45-1 SU record and 34-12 ATS for 74% winning bets over the past five seasons.  

New York Knicks vs Cleveland Cavaliers (April 15) 
10-Unit best bet on the Cavaliers minus the points 
 

The top-4 seeds in the first two games of a playoff round are favored by 6 to 10 points and have the higher effective field goal percentage is 38-17-1 ATS for 69% of winners since 2017. Drilling down a bit further, if the total is between 205 and 215, these home teams have gone a quite impressive 15-2 SU and 13-4 ATS for 77% winning bets since 2017.  

From the predictive models, we are expecting the Cavaliers to score 111 or more points and have a better assist-to-turnover ratio. In past games in which the Cavs have met or exceeded these measures in home games has led to a highly profitable 27-6-1 ATS for 82% winning bets over the past three seasons. The Knicks in road games are just 12-24-2 ATS for 33% in the same scenarios.  
 

Nets vs Sixers Game-1 Round 1 (April 15)  
8-Unit best bet on the Sixers minus the points 
 
Betting on home teams in the playoffs facing a 6th seed or higher seed that has the lower opponent effective field goal percentage during the regular season are 11-5-1 ATS for 69% winning bets. Also, seeds 1 through 4 in the first two games of a playoff series that have the better season-to-date effective field goal percentage are 72-51-1 ATS for 59% winners since 2017. Moreover, the top-4 seeds in the first two games of a playoff round are favored by 6 to 10 points and have the higher effective field goal percentage is 38-17-1 ATS for 69% winners since 2017.  
The 76ers had the third-highest scoring fourth-quarter scoring differential in the NBA this season. Playoff home favorites that outscored their foes by an average of 1.75 or more PPG in the fourth stanza are 87-58-2 ATS for 60% winners. Overall, the 76ers went 54-28 SU and an impressive 48-34 ATS for 59% winning bets and in home games went 29-12 SU and 25-16 ATS for 61% winning bets this season.  

Chicago Bulls vs Miami Heat 
8-Unit Best Bet on the Chicago Bulls plus the points. I lik betting this matchup with a 70% bet preflop on the Bulls plus the current points available. Then during the first half of action only, look to add 15% more at 7.5 and 16% more at 9.5 points. 
 
From my predictive models, we are looking for the Bulls to score 111 or more points and to have the same or fewer turnovers than the Heat. In past games in which the Bulls met or exceeded these performance measures has led to a 17-9 ATS record good for 65% winning bets over the past five seasons. When Miami has been home they are 4-20 ATS for 17% when having more turnovers and allowing 111 or more points in games played over the past five seasons.  
 

Chicago Bulls vs Toronto Raptors 
8-Unit best bet on the Bulls plus the 5.5 points 
 
Live In-Game Strategy 
Bet 80% of your 8-Unit betting amount on the Bulls preflop, then add 15% more at 8.5 points preflop and then 5% on the money line if the in=game betting line moves to +10 or higher during the first half of action only.  
 
Situational Betting System 

The following betting system has produced exceptional and consistent results for many seasons sporting a 16-10 ATS record for 62% winning bets over the past five seasons Betting on any team that has held their last three opponents to more than 30 points below the opponents’ team total and has win percentage between 40 and 49% in games played in the last 20 games of the season and playoffs.  

Toronto won their last game of the regular season 121-105 over the Milwaukee Bucks, who were resting starters and really had no interest in the game. However, this trend does get my attention knowing that Raptors Nick Nurse is just 19-36 ATS in home games following a double-digit win.  

Player Prop Best Bet 

Tyler Hero Over 29.5 -112 at FanDuel Points, Assists, Rebounds 

NCAA 2023 Championship Best Bet 
8-Unit Best bet on San Diego State plus the 7.5 points and do believe you will see 8 and 8.5 potentially prior to the tip off.  
LIVE Betting Strategy 
We have reached the final 40 minutes of the NCAA Tournament and two unlikely programs have navigated the March madness maze to reach this distinguished event set to start at 9:20 PM EST at the NRG Stadium in Houston, TX. The Aztecs know they can come from behind and were down 14 points in the second half to FAU before rallying for the first-ever buzzer beater shot that was scored with the team trailing and not tied. In the third game of the season, Stanford was up 10 points and the Aztecs won by 12. They were down 13 points to Coastal Carolina before winning by six points. They were down 11 to the College of Charleston in the first round of the Tournament before rallying for a 6-point win. So, I like betting 70% preflop at +7.5 points and then adding 15% at 9.5 points and 15% at 11.5 points during the first half of action only. 
 
Although unlikely prior to the tournament, these two teams are the two best teams right now in the nation by many measures. They both prefer a slow, grinding, and physically tough style of game with UCONN ranking 252nd nationally averaging 66.7 possessions per game and SDST ranking 254th averaging 65.7 possessions per game.  

The Aztecs are the best defensive team in the nation overall and have been incredibly consistent at negating the three-point shot from an opponents’ scoring arsenal. For the season they allowed 26.50% 3-point shooting and were suffocating the best in the nation during the tournament. The Aztecs allowed 41% shooting from beyond the arc in their buzzer-beating win over FDU, who is the only team to have had success from beyond the arc. Prior to that Creighton shot a horrid 11.8%, No.1 seed Alabama shot 11.11%, Furman shot 23%, and College of Charlestown shot 20.83% from beyond the arc. Including FAU, only six teams managed to shoot 35% or better from beyond the arc against the sensational Aztec perimeter defense this season. The Aztecs held 29 opponent s to 35% or lower 3-point shooting of their 38 games played. Tennessee also matched that defensive feat and both teams ranked number 1 in the nation in this category. UCONN ranked third with 28 opponents under 35% shooting from 3-point territory, but based on SOS rankings was against significantly easier foes.  
  Teams playing in the Finals that have the lower defensive 3-point shooting percentage are 4-1 ATS for 80%. Teams like the Aztecs that three of their five previous opponents led by three or more points are 8-4 ATS for 67% in the Championship game. The Aztecs are 12-1 ATS when facing a foe that makes 8 or more 3-point shot attempts per game this season.

Matt Bradley Over 12.5 points 
 

76ers vs Bucks 
10-Unit best bet on the 76ers plus the points 

LIVE Betting Strategy 
If you will be watching this game, then the following strategy is recommended. Place 50% of your 10-Unit bet preflop and then look to add 25% more at Sixers plus 7.5 points and 25% more at Sixers plus 10.5 points.  
 
Betting on winning record underdogs that are facing a winning record host that is fresh off a 20 or more-point loss priced as the favorite has earned a highly profitable 18-10 ATS record for 64% winning bets over the past five seasons and a 40-22 ATS mark good for 65% winning bets over the past 15 seasons.  
In Thursday's 41-point home loss, Giannis Antetokounmpo posted a -32 plus-minus, his worst in any game of his career. Prior to this game, Antetokounmpo posted a -30 or worse plus-minus twice with a -31 against the Indiana Pacers on December 12, 2018, and a -31 against the LA Clippers March 29, 2021.  

The 76ers have won two straight games, covered the spread in three consecutive games. The Bucks are on a 4-game Over streak. Bucks are 13-25 when facing a team that has won 60 to 70% of their gamers on the season in games played over the past three seasons; 5-17 ATS when facing a team that has outscored their opponents by at least an average 3 PPG in games played in the second half of each of the past two seasons.  

From the predictive model, the 765ers are 31-4 SU and 24-10-1 ATS for 71% winning bets in road games, scoring 117 or more points, and making 35% or more of their 3-point shots spanning the past three seasons.  
 

Miami (FLA) vs UCONN 

10-Unit best bet on Miami plus the 5.5 points. Miami (29-7) will face UConn (29-8) in the second national semifinal on Saturday at NRG Stadium in Houston. It has been a banner season for the Hurricanes, who entered the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament as the top seed for the second time in program history. 

Miami has been led by senior guard Isaiah Wong, third-year sophomore forward NorchadOmier and fifth-year senior transfer guard Jordan Miller. Miller produced 27 points on perfect shooting to lead the Hurricanes to the 88-81 victory over the Longhorns on Sunday. 

The Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area has always been a perennial hot bed for football and baseball and may of their players had terrific careers in the pros. Both programs are making their first appearance in the Final Four, so add basketball as the third sport.  
 
Live Betting Strategy: This is a game that is going to a much faster pace than the first semifinal game. Betting 70% preflop on Miami at +5.5 and then add 30% more at +9.5 points during the first half of action. There will be scoring streaks by both teams. Overall, I do like Miami to pull off the uspet win here and move on the Finals – against FAU if everything works out there for us too. As a precursor I believe the line will be very close to pick-em if Miami and FAU meet in the Finals.  
 
Head coach Hurley is just 9-18 ATS in games away from the UCONN campus after having won 6 or 7 of their last 8 games. Miami head coach Larranaga is 28-14 ATS away from home after scoring 80 or more points in two consecutive games. 
 
 
Player Prop Bets: 1-UNIT MAX each recommended 
San Diego State’s Matt Bradley Over 12.5 points 
Miami’s Nigel Pack Over 13.5 points –110 
Miami’s NorchardOmier Over 22.5 points, assists, rebounds –110 
UCONN’s Andre Jackson Under 5.5 assists –110 
UCONN’s Alex Karaban Under 4.5 rebounds +100 
 
 

Florida Atlantic vs San Diego State 
8-Unit best bet on Florida Atlantic plus the points. 
3-Unit Parlay on FAU and Miami (FLA) money lines 
5-Unit Best bet OVER the posted total 
 
This matchup is the first game of the two NCAA Tournament semifinals taking place at the NRG Stadium in Houston, TX. First, I do not see the backdrops and backgrounds hindering shooting performances in either of these semifinals as we had seen in recent games taking place in Indianapolis, for instance. The first national semifinal of the Final Four at NRG Stadium in Houston on Saturday will feature a pair of first-time participants: Florida Atlantic (35-3) and San Diego State (31-6). And while the Owls and Aztecs made surprising runs to Houston, their season-long success belies the notion that their appearances are an aberration. The Owls are currently riding an 11-game winning streak that isn't even their longest of this season. FAU had its 20-game win streak snapped by an 86-77 road loss to UAB on Feb. 2. 

To many, the Owls might seem to be a bunch of unknowns. However, FAU leads the nation in victories and is ranked 15th in efficiency ratings. The Owls are no Cinderella and from a SDST perspective more akin to that evil stepsister.  

 
FAU uses their bench better than any other program and no player is averaging more than 30 minutes per game. At 13.1 points per game, Martin is one of three Owls averaging double figures in points with five-plus rebounds alongside fellow sophomores Johnell Davis and Vladislav Goldin. 

FAU has thrived via collective effort, and white-knuckle tournament victories over Memphis, Fairleigh Dickinson, Tennessee and Kansas State validated the Owls' egalitarian approach to success. 

FAU is 14-3 when facing defensive teams averaging 14 forced turnovers PPG this season and 25-11 ATS when facing teams that are called for 17 or more fouls per game in games played over the past two seasons. FAU is 23-9 after covering the spread in two of their last three games spanning the past three seasons.  

 
Betting the Over in any Tournament semifinal game (NCAA, NIT, or CBI) with a total between 130 and 139.5 points and with one of the teams coming into the game on a 7 or more-game win streak has earned a 53-32-2 Over record over the past 25 years. 

NBA 10-Unit 5% Max Bet of the Month 
Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns 
10-Unit best bet on the Phoenix Suns –5.5 points.  
5-Unit bet Over the posted total, currently priced at 235 points. An alternative wager is to bet 70% of your 5-unit amount at the current price preflop and then look to add 30% more at 226.5 points during the first half only. The higher the total, the greater the potential scoring volatility can be in an NBA game. I do not recommend a parlay unless you do it with pizza money amounts. 
 
The Suns are 19-6 ATS for 76% winning bets coming off a game shooting less than 43% from the field and facing a foe that is coming off a sharp shooting game hitting more than 50% from the field over the past five seasons.  

Betting on favorites that are taking on a foe that is ocming off two road upset wins and has won 50 to 60% of their games on the season has gone 69-33-2 ATS for 68% winning bets since 1996. This system has had just one losing season, going 3-2 ATS in 1999. 

Betting the Over with a home team that has posted an excellent 2.5 or higher assists-to-turnover ratio in each of their last three games and facing a foe that has trouble moving the ball and taking care of it as reflected by an assist-to-turnover ratio under 2 for the season has earned a 28-13-1 Over record good for 68.3% winning bets over the past 5 seasons. If the home team is playing on one day of rest, the Over record has earned a 20-7-1 mark for 74% winning bets. If the road team is playing on one day of rest, the Over record soars to 20-6-1 record for 77% winning bets. 

Magic vs Grizzlies
8-Unit bet on the Grizzlies minus the 7 points
Betting on home teams that are on a five or more-game win streak and defeated the current opponent in their previous same-season meeting, has won between 60 and 70% of their games on the season and facing a foe that has won betw3een 40 and 50% of their games on the season has earned a solid 11-5 ATS record good for 69% winning bets over the past five seasons and 38-17-3 ATS for 69% winning bets since 1996.

From the predictive model, Memphis is 90-21-1 ATS when scoring at least 115 points and having the better assists-to-turnover ratio in games played since 2018. The Magic are 24-76 ATS for 24% when allowing 115 or more points and with the foe having the better assist-to-turnover ratio since 2018.

Heat vs Raptors
8-Unit best bet on the Miami Heat plus the 3.5 points
Betting on road teams that are coming off a double-digit home loss and lost to the current foe in their previous same-season meeting have gone a solid 162-100-3 ATS record for 62% winning bets over the past 7 seasons and 107-64-2 ATS over their past five seasons. This set of parameters has produced profits for nine consecutive seasons.

From the predictive model, the Heat are 44-5 ATS for 90% winning bets when scoring 110 or more points and holding their opponent to 46% or lower shooting in games played over the past five seasons.

Celtics vs Wizards
8-Unit bet on the Celtics minus the 11.5 points
Betting on road favorites that are coming off a 20 or more-point win and facing a foe that has scored and allowed 100 or more points in each of their last three games has earned a solid 79-42-2 ATS for 65.3 % winning bets since 2015.

Tuesday March 21, 2023

Tuesday, March 21, 2023 

Tampa Bay vs Montreal 
8-Unit best bet on Tampa Bay using the puck line, currently priced at  
TB is 35-6 making 20 units using the puck line when facing a struggling team that is outscored by their foes by at least 0.5 goals per game in games played over the past two seasons. Montreal is 0-8 on the puck line losing 10 units following two consecutive games in which 8 or more goals were scored in each one spanning the past three seasons. Montreal is 1-10 on the puck line losing 14 units in home games after returning from a 3 or more-game road trip spanning the past two seasons. 

TCU vs Gonzaga 
8-Unit best bet on TCU plus the 4.5 points 

Here again, you can opt to bet 70% preflop plus the points and then look to add 30% money line at any price of +300 or better during the first half only.  

TCU has shot poorly recently and have played Under their team total by more than 20 points over their last 5 games. They are facing a team in Gonzaga that has struggled defensively this season and has also played Over their team totals by 15 points over their last five games. In the NCAA Tournament, teams that have played Under their team total by 20 or more points over their last five games and facing a foe that has played Over their team total by 15 or more points has seen the team, in this case, TCU, go 29-12 SU and 27-13-1 ATS for 68% winning bets. If it is a Round of 32 matchup, our team has gone 10-4 ATS for 71% winners and 3-0 ATS if priced as the underdog. 
Gonzaga ranks 357th of the 363 teams in consistency ratings and this makes Gonzaga extremely vulnerable to a significant regression after shooting 50% from the field in each of their past two games. We have a team in TCU that ranks 11th in second chance scoring in the nation matched up against Gonzaga, who ranks 105th nationally in this category defensively.  

From the predictive model, TCU is 40-12 ATS for 77% winners when getting 10 or more offensive rebounds and shooting at least 48% from the field and 10-2 ATS for 83% winners if priced as a dog of 6.5 or fewer points.  

Indiana vs Miami (FLA) 

8-Unit bet on Indiana using the money line 
Miami head coach Larranaga is just 12-25 ATS when playing their second road game in three days.  
From the predictive model, Indiana is 19-2 SU (91%) and 15-4-1 ATS in games scoring 75 or more points and having the same or fewer turnovers in games played over the past three seasons. Miami is 14-17 SU and 11-19-1 ATS for 37% when allowing 75 or more points and having the same or more turnovers in games played over the past three seasons.  

Florida Atlantic vs FDU 
8-Unit best bet on FAU minus 15.5 points 
4-Unit bet UNDER the total currently at 149 points. 
I suggest not betting this total preflop and instead look to get 50% of your 4-Unit amount at 154.5 points and another 25% at 147.5 points and the remaining 25% at 159.5 points during the first half of action only. The probability is quite high that the 154.5 price tag will be made available during the first half of the action given FAU’s outstanding offense that ranks 25th nationally averaging 78 PPG and 22nd nationally with a 55% effective field goal percentage. FAU is the best nationally sporting a 0.635 assist-to-turnover defensive ratio, but FDU does their scoring without significant ball movement as they rank 150th nationally with a 0.515 assist-to-field goal made ratio.  
I would stay away from any parlay bet. 

In the NCAA Tournament, a matchup of teams that has have beaten the spread by 55 or more points over their last 10 games have gone 18-8 ATS for 69% winning bets and 16-8-2 Under for 67% winning bets.  

St. Mary’s vs UCONN 
8-Unit Best Bet on ST. Mary’s +3.5 points 
STM is 15-7 ATS when facing teams that are attempting 21 or more 3-point shots per game. STM is 22-12-1 ATS in games with a posted total of 129.5 or fewer points in games played over the past three seasons. UCONN head coach Hurley is just 7-19 ATS away from home and has won 6 or 7 of their last 8 games.  
From the predictive model, STM is 28-2 SU and 22-6 ATS in games in which they scored 72 or more points and have the same or fewer turnovers in games played over the past three seasons. 

Maryland vs Alabama  
8-Unit bet on Maryland plus the 8.5 points, which could move to 9 points by the time I am done writing this research. From the predictive model, Maryland is 18-4 ATS for 82% winning bets when shooting at least 44% from the field, getting 38 or more rebounds and committing 11 or fewer turnovers in games played over the past 10 seasons. In the NCAA Tournament any team that meets or exceeds these performance measures has earned a 62-13-2 ATS record good for 83% winning bets over the past 15 tournaments and 20-4 ATS for 83% winners in the last three Tournaments. 

Auburn vs Houston 

8-Unit Bet on Auburn plus 5.5 points and sprinkle the money line if at any point Auburn is trailing by double-digits during the first half of action. 
Auburn is a solid 25-11 ATS when facing a foe that averages 21 or more 3-point shot attempts in games played over the past two seasons and 20-10 ATS when facing a solid shooting foe making 45% or more of their shots on the season over the past two seasons. From the predictive model, Auburn is 59-25-4 ATS for 70% winning bets when scoring 70 or more points and having the better more efficient assist-to-turnover ratio in games splayed over the past five seasons. 
 
Northwestern vs UCLA 
8-Unit bet OVER the posted total currently priced at 126.5 points. 
Betting over in a neutral court setting with a total between 120 and 129.5 points, with one of the teams, Northwestern coming off two consecutive games committing 11 or fewer turnovers and facing a foe that has committed 11 or fewer turnovers in three consecutive games has earned a highly profitable 70-39-4 Over record good for 64% winning bets.  

UCLA shot 54% from the field and allowed 37% shooting in their 86-53 win over UNC-Ashville. Teams that had a FG% differential of 15% or more in their last NCAA Tournament game have seen the OVER go 15-8-1 ATS for 65% winning bets.  

From the predictive model, UCLA is 11-5 Over the total when getting 42 or more rebounds, shooting 47% or better form the field, and committing 11 or fewer turnovers.  

Auburn vs Houston 
8-Unit Bet on Auburn plus 5.5 points and sprinkle the money line if at any point Auburn is trailing by double-digits during the first half of action. 
Auburn is a solid 25-11 ATS when facing a foe that averages 21 or more 3-point shot attempts in games played over the past two seasons and 20-10 ATS when facing a solid shooting foe making 45% or more of their shots on the season over the past two seasons. From the predictive model, Auburn is 59-25-4 ATS for 70% winning bets when scoring 70 or more points and having the better more efficient assist-to-turnover ratio in games splayed over the past five seasons. 

Arkansas vs Kansas 

8-Unit bet on Penn Arkansas plus the points, currently at 3.5 points. I suggest sprinkling the money line if Arkansas gets down double-digits in the first half of action.  
First, doesn’t this line look a bit curious with a No.1 seed Kansas squad favored by just 3.4 points against an Arkansas squad sporting a 21-13 overall record? Dogs of 5 or fewer points facing the No.1 seed in the Region from the Round of 32 on out to the Final Four have earned a 27-14 ATS record for 67% winning bets.  
Dogs of 2.5 to 7.5 points playing in the Round of 32, has achieved an excellent free throwsattempted to field goals attempted of at least .35 and facing a foe that has won at least three more games for the season has gone 12-5-1 ATS for 71% winning bets.  
Arkansas is 16-7 ATS following a double-digit win after game number 20 of the regular season over the past five seasons and if a dog, 6-1 ATS. 

From the predictive model, Arkansas is 17-4 ATS for 81% winning bets over the past five seasons when shooting 47% or better from the field and getting 34 to 39 rebounds.  
 
 

Duke vs Tennessee 
8-Unit best bet on Tennessee plus the points 
Duke ranks 3rd in excessive performance measures of the remaining teams in the Tournament and prone to regression on both ends of the court. Tennessee escaped in their opening round game defeating LA-Lafayette 58-55 as 11.5-point favorites. They did a terrible job handling the ball with 18 turnovers, but dogs in the NCAA Tournament that committed 18 or more turnovers in their previous win are 16-11 ATS for 59% winners.  

Betting on neutral dogs of 3.5 to 6. points in a matchup between Major Conference teams has earned a solid 36-24 ATS record good for 60% winning bets. If our dog has won just five or fewer games over their last 10 games, they have gone on to earn a 69% ATS record 22-10 ATS. 

From the predictive model, Duke is just 25-70-1 ATS for 26% when scoring 75 or fewer points and shooting no better than 45% from the field over the past 10 seasons. Plus, 6-18 ATS (33%) over the past three seasons priced as the favorite and scoring 75 or fewer points and shooting 45% or worse from the field.  

Kent State vs Indiana 
8-Unit best bet on Indiana minus the 4.5 points 
Betting on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points facing a foe that is seeded 13 through 16 in the NCAA Tournament and is on a four or more-game win streak has earned a 39-18 ATS record for 68.4% winning bets over the past 15 NCAA Tournaments. If our team has recorded a season-to-date offensive efficiency rating of between 95 and 112 points per 100 possessions, they record improves to 33-12-1 ATS for 73% winners. If we dive deeper into the database and isolate teams that have posted a pace of at least 68, the record soars to 26-9-1 ATS for 74% winning bets. 

Kent State is 6-16 ATS in NCAA Tournament games over the past 25 events.  
From the predictive analytics, we expect Indiana to make 48% of all shots and make at least 38% from beyond the arc. Indiana is 27-12 ATS (69%) when shooting at least 48% from the field in all games played over the past three seasons. Indiana is 16-6 ATS (73%) last 3 seasons in games in which they made at least 48% fo their shots and at least 38% from beyond the arc. Kent State is 2-8 ATS last three seasons allowing 48% shooting and 38% shooting from beyond the arc.  

Kansas State vs Montana State 
8-Unit Best bet on Kansas State minus the 7.5/8 points and is good up to 9.5 points.  
Betting on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in the Round of 64 facing a foe that is seeded 13 through 16 in the NCAA Tournament and is on a four or more-game win streak has earned a 24-13-1 ATS record for 65% winning bets over the past 15 NCAA Tournaments. If our game is one of the more popular games and betting volume for spread and money line bets is 11,000 or more in total, then our favorite soars to 35-11 for 76% ATS winners. So, far there have been 56,000 bets made on this matchup, Montana State is on an 8-game win streak and seeded 14. 
K-State is 10-2 ATS when facing a foe that has won between 60 and 80% of their games after the 15th game in each of the past two seasons. They are also 7-1 ATS after failing to cover the spread in 2 or more games spanning the past two seasons. Teams that are on a two or more-game losing streak entering the NCAA Tournament and priced as favorites of 6 or more points are a solid 6-1 ATS and 7-0 SU. 

Florida Atlantic vs Memphis 
Friday, March 17, 2023 
Round 1 of the NCAA Tournament 
Nationwide Arena - Columbus, OH 
8-Unit Best Bet on Florida Atlantic  

No matter what conference a team resides in, a season winning 30 or more games is always impressive and Florida Atlantic posted a 31-3 SU mark and 21-10-1 ATS mark with two games played having no posted betting lines. Over the past 10 NCAA Tournaments dogs that have won 30 or more games are 2-2 SU and 4-0 ATS so Memphis may be caught basking in their glory of upsetting No.1 ranked Houston in their previous game. 
     FAU is 7-1 ATS after two straight games allowing 65 or fewer points. Memphis is 0-6 ATS after covering the spread I two or more straight games this season. Memphis is 4-7-1 ATS following an excellent game in which they shot 50% from the field and allowed 33% or lower shooting in games played over the past five seasons. Memphis head coach Hardaway is a money-burning 9-20 ATS following three games in which this team scored 75 or more points.  

     From the predictive model, we are looking for FAU to score 75 or more points and have 13 or fewer turnovers. In past games in which they have met these performance measures has led them to an amazing 15-7 SU and 17-4-1 ATS mark for 81% winning bets since the 2015 season.  
     Last, consider the in-game betting strategy that I plan to use by placing 60% preflop on FAU plus the points and then adding 30% at FAU +5.5 and 10% at +350 using the money line.  
 
 

Providence vs Kentucky 
8-Unit bet on Providence plus 4 points. 
Kentucky is 1-8 ATS when facing strong shooting teams making 45% or more of their shots this season. Providence is 21-10 ATS when facing a foe that is outscoring their opponents by 4 or more PPG in games played over the past two seasons. Providence head coach Cooley is 12-4 ATS following three consecutive losses to conference foes. 

From the predictive model, Providence is 11-2 SU and 10-3 ATS when scoring 82 or more points and having the same or fewer turnovers in games played over the past three seasons.  

Iona vs UCONN 
8-Unit Bet on UCONN minus the points, currently at 9 and is good up to 11 points. Betting on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points facing a foe that is seeded 13 through 16 in the NCAA Tournament and is on a four or more-game win streak has earned a 39-18 ATS record for 68.4% winning bets over the past 15 NCAA Tournaments. If our favorite has recorded a defensive efficiency rating between 84 and 100, the record improves to 29-11-1 ATS for 73% winners. UCONN has a solid defensive efficiency rating of 93.2 for the season. Iona is on a 14-game win streak. 

The predictive analytics show us that UCONN is 20-5 ATS for 80% winners when scoring 75 or more points and out rebounding their foes by double digits over the past three seasons.  
 

Celtics vs Timberwolves 

10-UNIT MAX Bet on the Celtics minus the points, currently at –5 points. 

Betting on road favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points that are outscoring their foes by at least 3 PPG and facing a host that was leading by 20 or more points at the half of their previous game has earned a highly profitable 45-15 ATS record for 75% winning bets since 2004. This betting system is one of the best ones you will ever find as the parameters have a very strong P-Value (JR-Value) of .000067 and the close a P-Value gets to absolute zero the stronger the correlation of the game-dependent parameters becomes. 
From the predictive model, the Celtics are 56-10 SU and 51-15 ATS when scoring 117 or more-points and making 80% or more of their shots from the charity stripe in games played over the past three seasons. 
 

Texas A&M vs Alabama 
SEC Championship Game 
8-Unit Bet on Alabama minus the points and is good up to 9.5, although it won’t get there by game time. Teams that are favored in conference tournaments that lost two same-season games to the foe, and with that foe shooting higher percentage over their last three games than their season-to-date shooting average and with both teams play on back-to-back days has seen them go 24-8 SU and 22-10 ATS for 69% winning bets.  
 
Alabama is on a 14-4-1 ATS streak when coming off a double-digit win and 7-1 ATS when coming off back-to-back double-digit wins this season. 
 
 

Princeton vs Yale 
8-Unit bet on Yale –3 points 
8-Unit Bet UNDER 140 points 
Interesting to note that Yale is the home team despite playing on Princeton’s home court at Jadwin Gymnasium in Princeton, NJ. This does make the line a bit cheaper and adds value to backing Yale in this spot to win and earn the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. 
This season, the Ancient Eight saw Princeton and Yale tie for the regular season Championship with Princeton getting to host their version of the Final Four. To their credit they get the IVY League Tournament done in just 2 days on a weekend.  

I suggest betting no more than a 2.5-unit amount on the parlay and would encourage you to wait till the game starts and look to get Yale at pick-em and the Under at 146.5 or more points during the first half of action. Perhaps 1.5 units parlay preflop and then 1 more unit in-game.  
 
Princeton lost at Yale 87-65 back on January 28 as 3-point dogs and lost at home in overtime 93-83 as 1.5-point favorites. Dogs of 3.5 or fewer points playing in a conference tournament, having lost two same season games to the foe, who has covered the spread in at least three consecutive games have seen the Under go 20-7 for 74% winners.  

Dogs that are playing in their conference tournament and that lost two same season games to the current foe, with a total between 135 and 145 points and with that foe averaging a higher shooting percentage over their last three games than what they shot for the season have gone just 18-27 ATS for 40%. 
 

Xavier vs Marquette

8-Unit best bet on Xavier plus the two points
Betting on any team priced between the threes and they scored 75 or more points in each of the last two games and are facing an opponent coming off two consecutive wins by 6 or fewer points has earned an outstanding 43-22-1 against the spread for 66.2% winning bets over the last five seasons. If in a conference tournament, these teams are 6-1 SUATS for 86% over the past 5 seasons. This will be the first time for Xavier to return to the NCAA Tournament and they will be attractively priced as a bet to make the Elite-8. So, keep that in mind.

Texas vs Kansas
8-Unit bet on the Texas Longhorns plus 1.5 points and if the line goes to +1 or pick, then take the cheaper price3 between the money line and the +1 spread. 
Big 12 Tournament Championship Game at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, MO
From the predictive model we learn that Texas is a solid 10-1 SUATS when making at least 80% of their free throw shots and scoring 75 or more points in games played over the past three seasons. Kansas is just 3-11 SU and 2-12 ATS when allowing 75 or more points and the foe made at least 80% of their free throws in games played over the past three seasons.

Fordham vs Dayton
8-Unit best bet on the Fordham Rams plus the 6.5 points
From the predictive model, we expect Fordham to score 65 or more points and have 11 or fewer turnovers. In past games in which Fordham met or exceeded these performance measures has led them to an outstanding 17-4 straight up record for 81% wins and 19-2 against the spread for 91% winning bets over the past three seasons.
 This game will start approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first semifinal game between VCU and Saint Louis. Quisenberry’s 22 points led Fordham past LaSalle in their last game. He  also contributed six rebounds for the Rams (25-7). Khalid Moore scored 20 points while shooting 6 for 14 (2 for 5 from 3-point range) and 6 of 8 from the free throw line, and added 11 rebounds. Will Richardson was 4 of 7 shooting (2 for 4 from distance) to finish with 10 points. One of the keys to fornham winning this game is to force the tempo to be faster which is something that Dayton does not do well in. Date and ranked 345th of 363 Division One basketball programs in pace of play averaging just 64.31 possessions per game. Fordham ranks 42nd in the nation averaging 70.6 possessions per game. Fordham is 25-1 and 20-5-1 against the spread for 80% winning bets when scoring 65 or more points in games played this season. Slicing the data a bit further we find that Fordham is a perfect 6-0 straight up and against the spread when scoring between 65 and 69 points in games played this season.

Penn State vs Northwestern 
8-Unit best bet on Penn State plus the 1.5 points. 

The following situational algorithm has earned a 15-8 SU record and 20-3 ATS record for 87% winning bets over the past 10 seasons and requires a bet on neutral court teams, PSU, that defeated the current opponent as an underdog and with that foe coming off a double digit road win. If our team is the dog, the record goes to an incredible 15-1 ATS for 94% winning bets.  
 
 

North Texas vs UAB 
8-Unit best bet on UAB money line or any dog line of +1.5 or more.  
Betting on teams lined between a 3.5-point dog and favorite in conference tournament games that are facing a foe that led their last three games at the half by a total of 30 or more points and our team has scored a total of 240 or more points over their last three games has earned an 18-7-1 ATS for 72% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. 
This matchup is a semifinal game in the Conference USA Tournament being held at the Ford Center at the Star and set to tip at 2:00 EST. The betting line opened with UAB priced as a 1-point underdog and early flows suggest that the line could go to +1.5 points. The money line flows will shift more to UAB at +1.5 points and there is not enough market strength to push the line past +2. Moreover, the early start limits the amount of time remaining for any steam to come in on North Texas.  
Over the past three seasons, UAB is on a solid 22-11 ATS win streak when facing a free throw shooting team making 72% or more of those shots from the stripe. North Texas is just 2-10 ATS coming off back-to-back blowout wins by 20 or more points. 
From the predictive playbook we learn that UAB is 39-2 SU and 22-9-2 ATS for 71% in games in which they had fewer turnovers and more rebounds than their opponent in games played over the past three seasons. 

Ohio State vs Michigan State 
8-Unit best bet on MSU minus the 4.5 points 
OSU has won four of their last five games and covered five straight to the number but looks like the season ends this afternoon. In conference tournament games, betting on a team that had at least one BYE and taking on a losing record foe that is playing on back-to-back days and has covered the spread by at least 25 points has earned a 16-8-1 ATS record for 67% winners. If the foe has covered the spreads by at least 35 points, the record goes to 9-3-1 ATS for 75% winners and are 25-1 straight-up (SU). OSU has covered the spread by 43 points over their past 5 games, so the market now has over valued them. 

Villanova vs Creighton 
8-Unit best bet on Villanova plus the points, currently 5 points. I like betting 60% preflop and then looking to get ‘Nova +9.5 points in-game for the remaining 40% bet amount. 
Betting on teams that defeated the opponent as a dog in their earlier meeting and is coming off a double-digit road win has earned a 39-14 ATS record for 74% winning bets over the past 25 seasons. If our team is priced as a dog of not more than 8 points, the record has been 15-9 ATS over the past three seasons. 

From the predictive model, Villanova is 7-1 SUATS as a dog, hitting 80% or more of their shots from the charity stripe, and having the better assist-to-turnover ratio in games played over the past 5 seasons. 

LaSalle vs Fordham 
8-Unit best bet on the Fordham Rams minus the 6 points 
The following system has earned a highly profitable 23-10 ATS record over the past five seasons. Bet on neutral court favorites in a matchup of teams allowing between 67 and 74 PPG and with the dog coming off back-to-back double-digit wins. Drilling down a bit further we learn that betting on favorites in conference tournament action of 3.5 or more points have gone 19-5 SU and 17-7 ATS for 71% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. 
Fordham is 20-9 ATS when facing a foe that averages 21 or more 3-point shot attempts in games played over the past two seasons; 23-7-1 ATS when playing only their second game in the past 7 days in games played over the past two seasons. 

From the predictive mode, we expect Fordham to score 75 or more points and have between 10 and 13 turnovers and when they have achieved this have gone to a 20-3 SU record and 18-4-1 ATS record for 82% winning bets. If they are facing a conference foe an even better 16-3 SU and 12-2-1 ATS record for 86% winning bets.
