01-29-22 | Oklahoma +10 v. Auburn | 68-86 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 29 m | Show | |
Oklahoma at Auburn 2:00 ET Sooners (+) over Tigers- After winning 16 consecutive games the No. 1 Tigers are brimming with confidence and well they should be but they realize there is more to be done. Oklahoma snapped a 4-game losing steak with win at West Virginia Wednesday and they are ready tested having played Baylor and six ranked teams in their past eight and the fourth top-10 team. The Sooners have won nine straight against the SEC and realize this isn't football. Take OKLAHOMA! |

01-28-22 | Bulls v. Spurs +2.5 | Top | 122-131 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
Chicago at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Bulls- Chicago has come a long way since the end of last season and now have an All-NBA starting guard as DeMar DeRozan who played his last three seasons with the Spurs. But, the Bulls have struggled in recent weeks with injuries and players out because of COVID. They are 0-3-1 ATS in their last four as road favorites and 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight road games overall. The Spurs are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games following a loss. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

01-28-22 | Jazz +4 v. Grizzlies | 109-119 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 1 m | Show | |
Utah at Memphis 8:10 ET Jazz (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis is the hottest team in the NBA winning 14 of 17 games with Ja Morant making his mark averaging 36.8 points and 8.5 assists in the last four games. Utah on the other side has lost nine of 11 games as both Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell have missed the last five games. Both stars are probable for tonight's battle. With the Jazz having their problems and the Grizzlies so hot I am surprised the line is this low. The Jazz are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and Memphis is 0-6 ATS in their first home games after a road trip of seven days or more. (How 'bout dat). Take UTAH! |
|||||||
01-28-22 | Pistons +3.5 v. Magic | 103-119 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 2 m | Show | |
Detroit at Orlando 7:00 ET Pistons (+) over Magic- The NBA's worst go head-to-head tonight in Orlando where the Pistons who have won only 11 games go after the Magic who have just nine victories. But, as a good friend once said to me, 'There's got to be a winner' when the game is over. The goof here is that Detroit has won just four of 22 road games while Orlando has only three wins at home in 20 games. The Pistons have covered their last four outings and are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings. Take DETROIT! |
|||||||
01-27-22 | Lakers +2.5 v. 76ers | Top | 87-105 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 21 m | Show |
L.A. Lakers at Philadelphia 7:30 ET Lakers (+) over 76ers- In Joel Embiid unstoppable? He has at least 38 points and 12 rebounds in four straight games and he has elevated his play. The floundering Lakers fresh off a win at Brooklyn saw their defensive stalwart Anthony Davis return to action after missing 17 games and block four shots. Los Angeles was 7-10 in his absence and have struggled against teams with winning records going 6-14 in their last 20. 76ers are hot but still are just 5-11 ATS in their last 15 home games. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Mavs v. Blazers +4.5 | 132-112 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 50 m | Show | |
Dallas at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Mavericks- Both teams fell in their games last night with Dallas falling 130-92 at Golden State and Portland failing 109-107 while hosting Minnesota. The Mavericks lost more than a game last night as Tim Hardaway Jr. sustained a broken foot and adjusting to playing without your point guard might take time. Dallas has won the last two meeting in Portland by an average of 27.5 points. I don't expect that tonight. Take PORTLAND! |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Raptors +4 v. Bulls | Top | 105-111 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
Toronto at Chicago 8:10 ET Raptors (+) over Bulls- Toronto is looking to get remain on track after defeating Charlotte 125-113 on Tuesday and they did it without Fred VanFleet who was sidelined. The Raptors are 6-0 ATS with no rest and 15-5 ATS in their last 20 games overall. Chicago after a fabulous start have hit hard with injuries and COVID protocols and are struggling losing five of their last six and are 2-5-1 ATS as home favorites. Take TORONTO! |

01-26-22 | Clippers v. Magic -107 | 111-102 | Loss | -107 | 7 h 45 m | Show | |
L.A. Clippers at Orlando 7:10 ET Magic (+) over Clippers- If you had heard a half-time score of last night's Clippers' game where at one time trailed by 35 points and got the 116-115 final in the morning you may have thought you were still dreaming. How do you top that entering a game against the league's worst team with only nine wins? You can't! Orlando has just two wins in their last 16 games but one was their last time out a 114-95 win over Chicago. The Magic played the Clippers tough in their single meeting in Los Angeles losing 106-104 at the buzzer. Can't use stats here. Take ORLANDO! |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Vanderbilt +2 v. South Carolina | 61-70 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 52 m | Show | |
Vanderbilt at South Carolina 7:00 ET Commodores (+) over Gamecocks- Vandy has dropped four of their last five including the first game of this slide to the Gamecocks 72-70 as hosts. The Commodores are 4-2 SU on the road this season and are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 road games while South Carolina is just 1-5 ATS following a straight-up win. Both clubs will be short-handed as injures have affected them but the 'Dores have better depth. Take VANDERBILT! |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Miami-FL v. Virginia Tech -4.5 | 78-75 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
Miami-Fl at Virginia Tech 7:00 ET Hokies (+) over Hurricanes- Miami has won 10 of their past 12 games, and their only losses during that span were each by one point to rival Florida State while Virginia Tech has dropped their last two. The Hokies won both meetings last season winning by two at home and in overtime at Miami and are favored here which to me is surprising. Consider this, the Canes are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 as underdogs and the Hokies are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall. This 'price' makes no sense. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
01-26-22 | Arkansas v. Ole Miss +4.5 | Top | 64-55 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 55 m | Show |
Arkansas at Mississippi 7:00 ET Rebels (+) over Razorbacks- Since starting conference play 0-3 the Razorbacks have won four straight SEC games with their lone road win this season coming at LSU 10 days ago. Mississippi had dropped six of seven before we posted them as 'our' Megabucks 70-54 winner over Florida on Monday. Although Arkansas has won seven straight in the series the Rebels are 7-1-1 ATS as home underdogs and are feeling very confident. Take MISSISSIPPI! |

01-25-22 | Arizona v. UCLA +2.5 | Top | 59-75 | Win | 100 | 14 h 35 m | Show |
Arizona at U.C.L.A. 10:00 ET Bruins (+) over Wildcats- The best of the Pac-12 go at it at Pauley Pavilion where the Bruins will play before at home before a 'live' crowd for the first time since Dec. 1. UCLA opened the season ranked No. 2 starting but were blown out early in the year to Gonzaga in Las Vegas and have been scraping along ever since. Arizona has moved into the No. 2 spot nationally and is averaging 88.7 ppg also ranking No. 2. The Wildcats are a small favorite here and the underdogs is 17-4 ATS in the last 21 meetings and the Bruins are 6-1 ATS as underdogs. Take UCLA! |
|||||||
01-25-22 | Mavs +3 v. Warriors | Top | 92-130 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 45 m | Show |
Dallas at Golden State 10:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Warriors- For the Mavericks there is something special that happens when they go play at the Chase Center in San Francisco as they are 3-0 against the host Warriors. Dallas is 11-2 SU in their last 14 games as they have held 10 opponents under 100 points scored. But defense has been the name of the game of Golden State as they are ranked No.1 allowing just 101.9 ppg while the Mavericks are ranked No. 3 allowing just 102.5 ppg. Curry is slumping, Draymond Green is out and Klay Thompson is questionable. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-25-22 | Mississippi State +9.5 v. Kentucky | 74-82 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show | |
Mississippi State at Kentucky 9:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Wildcats- Kentucky is off a disappointing 80-71 loss at Auburn after leading by 10-points before TyTy Washington turned his ankle and missed the final 30 minutes. In the second half they lost point guard Sahvir Wheeler and dropped their third game against ranked competition. UK had defeated the bulldogs 15 straight time before last season upset win by Mississippi State in the SEC playoffs. Wildcats licking their wounds are just 5-11-1 ATS after a SU loss. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

01-25-22 | Lakers -2.5 v. Nets | 106-96 | Win | 100 | 10 h 10 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Lakers (+) over Nets- So, the word is that the Lakers spent more time partying in South Beach buying five-figure bottles of wine Saturday night before falling to the Heat 113-107 on Sunday. Now, in Brooklyn the Lakers will face the Nets who will be without Kyrie Irving and Los Angeles should have Anthony Davis turning to the lineup tonight. The Lakers are 14-4-3 ATS in their last 21 trips east against the Nets and Brooklyn is 5-16 ATS in their last 21 home games. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
01-25-22 | Pelicans +8.5 v. 76ers | 107-117 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
New Orleans at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Pelicans (+) over 76ers- Two years ago the 76ers couldn't buy a win on the road and were a dominate home team but things have turned. They are a pedestrian 10-10 SU and 8-12 ATS as host and this time around are 17-9 SU on the road. New Orleans surprisingly enough are the sixth seed in the East despite a 18-28 record and are off a road win over the Knicks. The Pelicans are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings and are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five games in Philly. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
01-25-22 | Michigan State v. Illinois -5.5 | 55-56 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 38 m | Show | |
Michigan State at Illinois 7:00 ET Illini (-) over Spartans- Michigan was a huge Megabucks winner for 'us' on Friday as they took down the Badgers 86-74 in Wisconsin leading from start to finish. After six straight wins Illinois has dropped their last two games including a double-overtime loss to Purdue. The Illini's top player Kofi Cockburn was out in their loss to Maryland but will return here. Michigan State is 1-4 ATS following a SU win and the home team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings and the Illini are 7-3 ATS as favorites. Take ILLINOIS! |

01-24-22 | Bulls v. Thunder +2 | Top | 111-110 | Win | 100 | 10 h 54 m | Show |
Write-in Game Chicago at Oklahoma City 8:00 ET Thunder (+) over Bulls- Five games before the season's mid-point the Bulls were 26-10 and one of the best ATS winners in the league but injuries and COVID issues have spun this team in another direction. Chicago was down to six players with 113 combined starts this season and they just haven't been competitive losing seven of their last nine in cluing a loss to the NBA's worst team Orlando yesterday. Oklahoma City has been even worse losing the last five and 10-of-11 losing at Cleveland yesterday 94-87. Thunder are 7-1-1 ATS as home dogs and Bulls are 1-5 ATS as home favorites have get gored here. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |
|||||||
01-24-22 | Virginia Tech +4.5 v. North Carolina | 68-78 | Loss | -106 | 8 h 16 m | Show | |
Virginia Tech at North Carolina 8:00 ET Hokies (+) over Tar Heels- The difference in North Carolina with Ray Williams gone could not be more obvious as the Tar Heels look nothing like the 'Carolina' that we are accustomed to seeing take the court this a thing of the past. UNC has lost back-to-back games by 20-or-more points for the first time in 20 years. Virginia Tech was faded late against lowly Boston College on Saturday and have a glaring weakness off the boards while that is the Tar Heels strongest attribute. I just don't believe that that are all that well coached...take VIRGINIA TECH |
|||||||
01-24-22 | Florida v. Ole Miss +4.5 | 54-70 | Win | 100 | 8 h 34 m | Show | |
Florida at Mississippi 7:00 ET Rebels (+) over Gators- Florida won it's third straight SEC contest when the whipped Vanderbilt on Saturday 61-42 without their leading scorer rebounder and shot blocker center Colin Castleton out. Mississippi have lost four straight and six of seven as Commodores star Scotty Pippen Jr. was 1-of-10 continues to slump shooting 1-10 from the field. The Gators are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games and the dog is 16-5 ATS in the last 21 meetings and the Rebels are 6-1-1 ATS as home underdogs. Take MISSISSIPPI. |
|||||||
01-24-22 | Louisville +5.5 v. Virginia | 52-64 | Loss | -117 | 7 h 4 m | Show | |
Louisville at Virginia 7:00 ET Cardinals (+) over Cavaliers- More has been expected from these two squads as their matching 11-8 records are more pedestrian than the standards they usually carry. Virginia's problems are in more talent level and execution than effort. In the Louisville camp there appears to be issues concerning effort and attitude. The Cardinals have dropped 4-of-5 and are 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine games overall and are off a 78-65 home loss to Notre Dame. Red Birds are 17-7 ATS after a double-digit home loss and the Cavaliers are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games as home favorites. Take LOUISVILLE! |

Memphis at Dallas 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Grizzlies- Hot is hot and both of these squads are on a run having each won 8-of-10. This is the fourth meetings of the season between the two and Dallas has won the last two with Memphis the winner in the first encounter. It was the Mavericks who ended the Grizzlies 11-game win streak and are off a 109-101 home loss to Phoenix and they are 5-0 ATS after a straight-up loss. Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
01-23-22 | 76ers v. Spurs +2.5 | Top | 115-109 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
Philadelphia at San Antonio 7:00 ET Spurs (+) over 76ers- Both of these clubs blew fourth quarter leads in their last encounters with the 76ers losing to the Clippers 102-101 at home blowing a 24-point lead while the Spurs faded in the final quarter in their home loss to Brooklyn 117-102 on Friday. Philadelphia who was led by Joel Embiid who has scored 90 points in his last two games but the Sixers who are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 trips to San Antonio will be short handed with just eight players available. Spurs are 19-7-1 ATS after a SU loss of 10-points or more. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
01-23-22 | Lakers +2.5 v. Heat | 107-113 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Miami 6:10 ET Lakers (+) over Heat- Playing 'against' Miami is always so stressful because they are so well coached disciplined and always give a professional effort. Not the same can be said of the Lakers who have more chemistry problems than I ever had in sophomore science labs. LeBron James at 37 is playing some of the best basketball of his career and is returning to Miami where he won a pair of NBA titles. The Heat will mostly likely be without Tyler Herro once again and he is a key component to their success. Take LOS ANGELES |
|||||||
01-23-22 | Michigan +4 v. Indiana | 80-62 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
Michigan at Indiana 3:30 ET Wolverines (+) over Hoosiers- Entering Thursday night the Hoosiers had lost nine straight games to Purdue before upsetting the No. 4 Boilermakers 68-65. Sunday, Indiana takes on Michigan a conference rival that has defeated them seven straight times in the regular season with all wins by double-digits. The hosts are a perfect 12-0 SU at home and are 8-0 ATS as home favorites in their last eight games while the Wolves are 3-9 ATS as road underdogs. Look for the Hoosier to have a letdown here after their huge win on Thursday. Take MICHIGAN! |

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

01-22-22 | North Carolina +2 v. Wake Forest | 76-98 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |
North Carolina at Wake Forest 8:00 ET Tar Heels over Demon Deacons- This is a bit of a test for North Carolina who was just wasted 85-57 at Miami a game where they never competed but are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a loss. Wake Forest is off back-to-back road wins and is 10-1 SU at home. Carolina is one of the top rebounding teams in the country and have more their game into the paint. The underdogs is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take NORTH CAROLINA! |

01-22-22 | LSU v. Tennessee -5.5 | 50-64 | Win | 100 | 9 h 20 m | Show | |
L.S.U. at Tennessee 6:00 ET Volunteers (-) over Tigers- Another pair os Top-25 SEC teams going at it and we are not even on the football field. LSU has managed to win some big games and even posted an impressive 79-67 win over Tennessee two weeks ago in Baton Rouge. But, Auburn has has it's dynamics change as they have lost both starting guards to injury who were their leading scorers and rebounder and assist leader. The home team is 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings and the Volunteers are 4-1 ATS in their last five games at home. Take TENNESSEE! |

01-22-22 | Baylor v. Oklahoma +3.5 | Top | 65-51 | Loss | -107 | 6 h 29 m | Show |
Baylor at Oklahoma 3:00 ET Sooners (+) over Bears- Oklahoma is on a 3-game slide and have lost 4-of-5 with losses to Kansas, Texas and oh yeah Baylor losing 84-74 at Waco. The Bears had their own missteps dropping a pair to Texas Tech and Oklahoma State but rebounded with a 77-68 win at West Virginia on Tuesday. The Bears have won seven straight in the series but it is time for the scrappy Sooners to make changes and adjustments on defense against the Bears front line. Take OKLAHOMA! |

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

01-22-22 | Kentucky +4 v. Auburn | 71-80 | Loss | -106 | 4 h 22 m | Show | |
Kentucky at Auburn 1:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Tigers- A pair of SEC winning streaks are on the line as No. 2 Auburn has knocked over 14 straight opponents while No. 12 Kentucky has notched four straight wins. These two schools that dominate each other in different sports has the Tigers are n control on the gridiron but the Wildcats have had the best of it on the hardwood holding a 92-21 SU advantage. Kentucky is 8th in the nation averaging 83 PPG and Auburn is right behind them with 80.7 PPG. The line is short for good reason as the Wildcats are ready to pounce. Take KENTUCKY! |

01-21-22 | Grizzlies v. Nuggets -3.5 | 122-118 | Loss | -101 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
Memphis at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Grizzlies- The Grizzlies have turned heads with their most recent play which included an 11-game win streak with Ja Morant paving the way. Memphis was short-handed in their loss to Milwaukee and will most likely be two players short for tonight's encounter. The Griz have been great as underdogs going 9-2 ATS on the road but are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six trips to Denver. The Nuggets Nikola Jokic is back and dominating play as he recorded another triple-double headed by his 49 points against the Clippers Wednesday. Take DENVER! |

Michigan State at Wisconsin 9:00 ET Spartans (+) over Badgers- With a pair of 7-footers controlling the paint Wisconsin has reeled off eight straight wins and at 6-1 in Big Ten play they are tied with Illinois for the conference top spot. Michigan State has a 7-footer of their own in Marcus Bingham Jr. as they have a 7.4 rebounding margin over their opponents. The Badgers have won the past two meetings but previous to that the Spartans had won eight straight in the series between the two. MSU is 5-1 ATS after a SU loss and 4-0 ATS in their last four road games. Take MICHIGAN STATE! |

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

McCollum has won four of their last six games although they are just 4-15 SU on the road. The Blazers Jusuf Nurkic has record three consecutive double-doubles since his return from COVID and they are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five trips to Boston. The Celtics are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games as home favorites and just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall. Take PORTLAND! |

Indiana at Golden State 10:00 ET Pacers (+) over Warriors- With Klay Thompson back Golden State now has three guards that will be very difficult for the opposition to defend. Last time out against Detroit the trio including Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins shot 20-of-37 posting just the third wi in eight games for the Warriors. Indiana who has never lost at the Chase Center winning in each of the past two season while Thompson was sidelined. Indiana is 18-8-1 ATS in their last 27 games as underdogs while the Warriors are 0-5 ATS after a SU win and 2-5 ATS as favorites in their last seven games. Take INDIANA! |

New Orleans at New York 7:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Knicks- The inconsistent Knicks took it on the chin once again Tuesday losing at home to Minnesota and fell below .500 having dropped their last two. New Orleans has also lost their last two games blowing an 18-point lead before falling to the Celtics on Tuesday. New York after having one of the top defenses in the NBA last season is still struggling to find their identity. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

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

01-20-22 | Purdue v. Indiana +3.5 | Top | 65-68 | Win | 100 | 10 h 56 m | Show |
Purdue at Indiana 7:00 ET Hoosiers (+) over Boilermakers- No. 4 Purdue has played 17 games with just three of them on the road going 2-1 SU and 1-2 ATS while the Hoosiers are 11-0 SU at home including 9-2 ATS. This hasn't been much of a intra-state rivalry of late as the Boilermakers have won the last nine meetings and haven't loss to Indiana since February 2016. But, Purdue is 5-11 ATS as road favorites and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall while the Hoosiers are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games and 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as home underdogs and the home team is 5-2-1 ATS in the last eight meets.

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

01-19-22 | Pistons +7 v. Kings | 133-131 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
Detroit at Sacramento 10:00 ET Pistons (+) over Kings- It is difficult to make a case for either side with this matchup but as a once close friend said to me, 'there's got to be a winner.' Detroit still they dregs of the league are 3-19 SU on the road but are an improved 10-12 ATS and are 13-4 ATS in their last 17 following a loss. Sacramento is in turmoil as coaching changes and person grips about wanting ti be traded have been the highlight of their season. (oh yeah, they have beaten the Lakers). Pistons 10-3 ATS in last 13 meetings in Sacramento. Take DETROIT! |

01-19-22 | Raptors +4 v. Mavs | Top | 98-102 | Push | 0 | 10 h 37 m | Show |
Toronto at Dallas 8:30 ET Raptors (+) over Mavericks- NBA often is a game of streaks and the Mavericks are on one right now having won 10 of 11 including their last two at home against Orlando and Oklahoma City. Toronto has dropped 3-of-4 after having won their previous six and are playing their fourth straight game on the road. The Raptors bounce back for the foremost as they are 6-1 ATS after SU loss and 13-3 ATS against a team with a winning record and 12-4 ATS in their last 16 overall. Take TORONTO! |

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

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

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

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

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

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

01-18-22 | Kansas v. Oklahoma +4.5 | 67-64 | Win | 100 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
Kansas at Oklahoma 7:00 ET Sooners (+) over Jayhawks- Kansas has won 10-of-11 while Oklahoma is off back-to-back losses for the first time this season. After a 3-game span in a non-starters role the Jayhawks' 6-10 David McCormack says it 'lit a fire in me.' The Sooners don't have a starter over 6-9 and should be challenged. Kansas was an 85-59 winner at West Virginia Saturday and is just 6-17 ATS after a win of 20 points or more and Sooners are 7-0 ATS in their last eight games as home underdogs. Take OKLAHOMA! |

North Carolina at Miami-Fl 7:00 ET Hurricanes (+) over over Tar Heels- Gone is Ray Williams and a bit of the North Carolina mystique is now waning as the 12-4 and unranked Tar Heels come to Miami to play the upstart Hurricanes who lead the ACC at 5-1. NC is a half-game (4-1) behind and have picked up momentum winning 8-of-10 and are 5-1 ATS in their last six games as favorites. The 'Canes are 10-1 ATS as underdogs in last 11 including 9-3 ATS as home dogs. With a win at Duke the 'South Beachers' believe that they can defeat anybody. Take MIAMI-FL. |

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

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

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

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

01-15-22 | Lakers +4.5 v. Nuggets | 96-133 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 12 m | Show | |
L.A. Lakers at Denver 9:00 ET Lakers (+) over Nuggets- Both of these clubs are floundering round the breakeven mark and neither of them look like the contender they expected to be. LeBron James is trying to square to Lakers and has scored 30 or more points in 11 of his last 12 games but L.A. is still without Anthony Davis and has been hit time and again with COVID issues. The reigning MVP Nikola Jokic numbers are even better this season but the supporting cast of the Nuggets hasn't lived up to their potential. Los Angeles is 4-0 ATS in their last four games as road underdogs and are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Denver is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as favorites and 3-9 ATS after a SU win. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Notre Dame v. Virginia Tech -6.5 | 73-79 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
Notre Dame at Virginia Tech 6:00 ET Hokies (+) over Fighting Irish- This game sets up so well for 'us' as one team's strength plays into the other teams weakness. Virginia Tech has a tradition of playing tough defense and it is no different this season as they allow just 58.4 PPG while Notre Dame is hampered offensively averaging just 70 PPG ranking No. 206 on offense. I like that the Irish posted an upset win at home last time out defeating Clemson while the Hokies fell short against Virginia. ND is 2-7 ATS in their last road nine games while Tech is 7-3 ATS as home favorites. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Florida State +2.5 v. Syracuse | Top | 76-71 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show |
Florida State at Syracuse 3:00 ET Seminoles (+) over Orange- Six weeks ago on December 4 Syracuse handed the Seminoles their first home loss in 25 games winning 63-60. The Orange have lost five of eight since then but have five players averaging double-figures including both Boeheim's. Florida State has won 4-of-5 including a non-cover win over rival Miami on Tuesday but are a nightmare on the road where they are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 away from Tallahassee. The 'Cuse' is 1-7 ATS in the last eight games following a win. Take FLORIDA STATE! |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Arkansas +6.5 v. LSU | 65-58 | Win | 100 | 6 h 55 m | Show | |
Arkansas at L.S.U. 2:00 ET Razorbacks (+) over Tigers- LSU is 10-0 SU at home and are off a win at Florida and have won three straight SEC games since opening with a loss to Auburn. The Tigers have done it with defense allowing just 56.5 PPG ranking No. 5 in the nation. Arkansas is trending the other way as they had lost 5-of-6 before defeating lowly Missouri last time out. The Razorbacks are 0-2 on the road losing their only true road games to Texas AM and Mississippi State. This time around the 'Backs' get the money. Take ARKANSAS! |

01-14-22 | Mavs +2.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 112-85 | Win | 100 | 10 h 37 m | Show |
Dallas at Memphis 10:00 ET Mavericks (+) over Grizzlies- The contest will feature two of the NBA's brightest stars with the Mavericks Luka Doncic leading the charge for Dallas and Ja Morant for Memphis. The Grizzlies are the hottest team in the NBA having won 11 straight while the Mavs just got wasted in New York 108-85 by the Knicks and I expect them to rebound here as they are 6-0 ATS in their last six game following a SU loss. Considering how these guys are playing this seems like a very short 'price.' The Grizz are hot and on a great run but they are still just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as home favorites. Take DALLAS! |

01-14-22 | Cavs v. Spurs +3.5 | Top | 114-109 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 12 m | Show |
Cleveland at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Cavaliers- The Spurs have lost four straight games, 8-of-9 and are nine games under the break even mark but they are a plus against the 'number' as they are 22-19 ATS on the season. Cleveland of course leads the NBA with a 27-14-1 ATS record and are the most improved team in the league. San Antonio has had their way against the Cavaliers as they are 65-34 all-time including 40-9 SU record at home. After a blazing start to the season the odds maker is catching up to the Cavs as they are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six games as favorites and 2-5 ATS in their last seven games on the road. Spurs have bounce back abilities as they are 8-3 ATS after an ATS loss. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

01-14-22 | Hawks +4.5 v. Heat | 118-124 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Miami 8:00 ET Hawks (+) over Heat- It was about this time last season when Atlanta turned it all around and ran itself to the No. 5 seed and first round playoff win over New York. But, this year it seems unlikely as the Hawks have lost three in-a-row 7-of-10 and 9-of-12 and are off a 115-91 home beating by the Heat on Tuesday. Miami, has won three straight and 8-of-10 and most of this was done without Jimmy Butler which lets you know just how well the Heat are coached but they are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games as favorites and 0-6 as favorites at home in their last six as hosts. Hawks are 33-16 ATS after a double-digit loss. Take ATLANTA! |

01-14-22 | Suns v. Pacers +5.5 | 112-94 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 36 m | Show | |
Phoenix at Indiana 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Suns- It appears that the Pacers have hit a lull as they have dropped 8-of-9 while Phoenix has won 4-of-5 and have a league low nine losses on the season. In an oddity the Suns are 7-3 ATS at Indiana but the Pacers are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings overall and 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 home games. Caris LeVert has returned to the Pacers lineup and that should help. Take INDIANA! |

01-13-22 | Wolves +5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 108-116 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 37 m | Show |
Minnesota at Memphis 8:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis is on a franchise high 10-game winning streak as Ja Morant is establishing himself as an All-Star for the first time. Minnesota just had their 4-game win streak end in New Orleans Tuesday and look to post their second win over Memphis the first coming in November. The T'wolves are 6-0-1 ATS as road underdogs in their last seven and are 10-4-1 ATS in their last 15 games. Despite their record setting streak the Griz are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as home favorites. Take MINNESOTA! |

01-13-22 | Ohio State +3.5 v. Wisconsin | Top | 68-78 | Loss | -106 | 6 h 41 m | Show |
Ohio State at Wisconsin 7:00 ET Buckeyes (+) over Badgers- These two rivals met in early December and the Buckeyes prevailed in Columbus 73-55 and that was they last time the Badgers lost. Wisconsin has won five in-a-row since that loss as they lead the nation in fewest turnover committed a game at 8.2. In the first meeting the Buckeyes has a 49-28 rebounding advantage and I'm sure that will change but just by how much. The Buckeyes are 7-2 ATS in their last night as road dogs and 11-5 ATS in their last 16n road games overall. Whisky is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games overall and 6-2 in their last eight games as favorites. Still, take...OHIO STATE! |

L.A. Lakers at Sacramento 10:00 ET Kings (+) over Lakers- This is fourth and final meeting of the regular season between these two California clubs as the Kings took the first meeting in 3 OT's but Los Angeles rebound with a pair of wins in the last two meetings. LeBron James says the 'Lakers are 'playing their best ball' of the season and are 4-1 SU in their last five games with the loss last time out against Memphis. The Kings have dropped five straight and are just 8-21-1 ATS hosting the Lakers in their last 30 visits to the state capital. Lakers just 7-9 SU on the road and Kings hungry for a win. Take SACRAMENTO! |

01-12-22 | Mavs v. Knicks +2.5 | 85-108 | Win | 100 | 8 h 55 m | Show | |
Dallas at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Mavericks- New York who hasn't played to the level expected this year after last season's emergence to the 4th seed in the East are one-game under .500 at the midpoint and haven't been even since December 7. Dallas has run off six straight wins but will be without Kristaps Porzingis and Willie Cauley-Stein and coach Jason Kidd who is in COVID protocol. The Mavericks have been outstanding on the road going 11-5 ATS in their last 16 away from home and 5-2 ATS as road favorites. The Knicks starting to jell are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games. Take NEW YORK! |

Charlotte at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Hornets (+) over 76ers- Since returning from a three week COVID absence the 76ers and Joel Embiid has scored 30 points or more in seven straight games all Philadelphia victories. Charlotte has won three straight including a pair of wins over the NBA Champs Milwaukee and have their best half-way mark (22-19) since 2001. The Hornets are No. 2 in total points averaging 115.2 PPG and are shooting 37.7% with their 3-point attempts. Charlotte has been a money maker and is 15-7 ATS as underdogs and 14-4 ATS against teams with winning records. Sixers are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games. Take CHARLOTTE! |

01-12-22 | LSU v. Florida -2 | 64-58 | Loss | -117 | 9 h 21 m | Show | |
L.S.U. at Florida 7:00 ET Gators (+) over Tigers- If gators and tigers were to fighting in the jungle I would give the Tigers a chance but this game is in the Swamp where the Gators thrive. Florida is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games and LSU is 20-6-1 ATS in their last 27 games overall. Florida has lost five of their last eight games and are 0-2 in SEC play and have lost a pair to ranked teams Auburn and Alabama, this time they get the prize. Take FLORIDA! |

Duke at Wake Forest 7:00 ET Demon Deacons (+) over Blue Devils- Duke like so many other schools build resume with their early season home games and rarely take to the road. The Blue Devils have had one road game and lost that at Ohio State 71-66 as a beaten 3-point favorite. The Demon Deacons are 10-0 SU at home and Duke is 5-12 ATS in their last 17 road games. Enough said for this battle...take WAKE FOREST! |

Denver at L.A. Clippers 10:30 ET Clippers (+) over Nuggets- Los Angeles is struggling winning just four of their last 13 games and coach Tyronn Lue is just waiting for the return of Leonard and George. The Clippers will be up against the league's MVP Nikola Jokic who is double and even triple teamed by opponents to no avail. Denver is 3-8 ATS after a SU win and are 2-6 ATS as favorites. L.A. is 11-5 ATS as home underdogs. Take the CLIPPERS! |

Golden State at Memphis 8:00 ET Grizzlies (+) over Warriors- This is one game that will be worth the price of admission as Steph Curry and Ja Morant are very 'special' players. Numbers aside did you catch the block made by Morant against the Lakers the other night...one of the most impressive plays I have ever witnessed in professional sports. Memphis is running with Ja and has won nine straight and the Grizzlies are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games as underdogs. Take the GRIZZLIES! |

01-11-22 | Miami-FL v. Florida State -6.5 | 64-65 | Loss | -106 | 10 h 37 m | Show | |
Miami-Fl at Florida State 8:00 ET Seminoles (-) over Hurricanes- What we are hearing now is that Miami-Fl is unranked despite winning nine straight games and defeating No. 8 Duke and are 5-0 in the powerful ACC. Now, the Hurricanes take to the road where they are 3-0 SU against rival Florida State who has been disappointing this season (8-5) to date. Florida State is 5-1 SU at home and are 7-1 ATS at home against teams with winning records. The Canes have been tough but this 'price' is way too high and it looks like Miami is the sucker play...hence. Take FLORIDA STATE! |

01-11-22 | Iowa State v. Kansas -12.5 | 61-62 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
Iowa State at Kansas 8:00 ET Jayhawks (-) over Cyclones- To start with I think that is 'line' is outrageously high as Iowa State is 13-2 and is ranked No. 11 and yet is a double-digit underdog. The Cyclones are off a loss at Oklahoma and Kansas is off a loss at Texas Tech. What makes this 'price' even more ridiculous is that Iowa State is 6-1-1 ATS as underdogs but, the favorite is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings and the Jayhawks are 34-15-2 ATS in their last 51 games after a SU loss. Take KANSAS! |

Kentucky at Vanderbilt 7:00 ET Commodores (+) over Wildcats- No. 18 Kentucky has relied on 'home' cooking to boost their record (12-3) as they are 11-0 when in the comforts of the Bluegrass state but they are not the same away from Rupp Arena. The Wildcats don't have to leave the state for tonight's game in Nashville against intra-state rival Vanderbilt. Like many rivalries this is an underdog series as they have gone 15-5-2 ATS in the last 22 meetings and they Commodores are 10-3-4 ATS in their last 17 games as underdogs. The Wildcats are 5-12 ATS against teams with winning records. Take VANDERBILT! |

Cleveland at Sacramento 10:00 ET Kings (+) over Cavaliers- The biggest turn-around in the NBA this season has to be the play of the Cavaliers who are an amazing 26-13-1 ATS and are 11-9 SU on the road. Cleveland's improved play can be attributed to a stuffing defense that allows just 102.4 points ranking No. 2 in the league. Despite the Cavs have started to slip a bit and are 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven games overall and 2-6 ATS in the last eight meetings. The Kings are still a work in progress but get the money here.

Indiana at Boston 7:30 ET Pacers (+) over Celtics- This is the first of a two-game set that will end on Wednesday with both clubs coming off uplifting victories and a parade of losses. Indiana had dropped six in-a-row until beating Utah on Saturday and the Celtics won a revenge game against the Knicks after losing 5-of-6. Boston swept (3-0) the season series last year and are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings in Beantown. The Pacers are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five road games and the Celtics are 1-5 ATS in their last six games as favorites and 2-8-1 ATS after a SU win. Take INDIANA! |

Milwaukee at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (+) over Bucks-It was two short days ago 'we' posted the Hornets (+1.5) as a 114-106 outright Megabucks winner over Milwaukee and it looks like more of the same to me. The Bucks have now dropped 3-of-4 while Charlotte has won four of their last six. These two are the No. 2 and No. 3 scoring teams in the NBA and yet the 'Under' is 5-1 in the last six meetings and the Bucks are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games in Charlotte. Hornets 7-1 ATS in their last eight as home underdogs and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 home games overall. Take CHARLOTTE! |

01-09-22 | Bulls v. Mavs +3.5 | Top | 99-113 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show |
Chicago at Dallas 7:30 ET Mavericks (+) over Bulls- With the addition of coach Billy Donovan the Bulls are doing it everywhere posting a 12-6 SU record on the road and 14-4 at home. They are 21-9 ATS in their last 30m games as favorites including 14-6 ATS as road favorites and 9-3-1 ATS in the last 13 meetings in Dallas. But, one thing to remember is that these trends were accumulated when the Mavericks were good and Chicago was always an underdog. The rolls are reversed her and so is the result. Take DALLAS! |

01-09-22 | Wisconsin v. Maryland +1.5 | Top | 70-69 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
Wisconsin at Maryland 7:30 ET Terrapins (+) over Badgers- It came as a surprise to me that the Big Ten's leading scorer plays for Wisconsin as they have always had the defense first mentality. Johnny Davis leads the Badgers with 22.6 points per game and they have won four straight including wins over Purdue and Iowa with their only losses coming when Davis was sidelined with a minor injury. Maryland is hungry for the first conference win (0-3) having lost at Iowa and Illinois the last two times out. Take MARYLAND! |

01-08-22 | Florida +7.5 v. Auburn | 73-85 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 28 m | Show | |
Florida at Auburn 8:00 ET Gators (+) over Tigers- No. 9 Auburn (13-1) has won 10 in-a-row with their only blemish coming against Connecticut in overtime. The Tigers average better than 80 points per game while the Gators hang their hat on defense where they allow 61.7 PPG. Florida battle Alabama last time out and faltered in the second half losing 83-70 while the Tigers have clawed LSU and Auburn in their last two outings. I look for this one to be more competitive. Take FLORIDA! |

01-08-22 | Jazz v. Pacers +2.5 | 113-125 | Win | 100 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
Utah at Indiana 7:00 ET Pacers (+) over Jazz- Utah was without eight players last night as they were an 11-point underdog at Toronto and 'we' took advantage and posted the Raptors as a Power Play winner. All but two players are expected back for the Jazz but the biggest return to action was by Lance Stephenson who scored 30 points in the Pacers 129-121 loss to Brooklyn on Wednesday. Jazz just 2-5 ATS in the last seven meetings and just 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games as favorites. Pacers are 9-2 ATS as home underdogs. Take INDIANA! |

01-08-22 | Bucks v. Hornets -117 | Top | 106-114 | Win | 100 | 8 h 1 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (+) over Bucks- Milwaukee did what it does best in defeating the nets in Brooklyn 121-109 last night and come right back with two games in three days in Charlotte. The Hornets are coming off a near record performance against Detroit scoring 140 points as they are 2nd in the NBA in scoring. The Bucks are just trodding along trying to put it all together by the time the playoffs start. Hornets have moved to the favorite and the Bucks are 1-4 ATS as road dogs and 2-8 ATS when playing with no rest. Take CHARLOTTE! |

01-08-22 | Tennessee +2 v. LSU | 67-79 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 51 m | Show | |
Tennessee at L.S.U. 6:00 ET Volunteers over Tigers- A 'no quit' attitude and staying tough in the clutch gave Tennessee a 16.5-point favorite a come back overtime win over Mississippi Wednesday night. LSU was a Megabucks winner Tuesday defeating Kentucky 65-60 bouncing back from a loss at Auburn. So, here is LSU 13-1 including 9-0 at home and they are barely the favorite as host against the Vols. The underdog is 19-6 ATS in the last 25 meetings and Tennessee is 4-0 ATS after an ATS loss and the Tigers are 15-5-1 ATS at home which makes this line suspect. Take TENNESSEE! |

01-08-22 | Iowa State v. Oklahoma -5.5 | 66-79 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
Iowa State at Oklahoma 6:00 ET Sooners (+) over Cyclones- Talk about 'Don't Make Sense'...this is it. No. 11 Iowa State (13-1) invades Norman as a heavy underdog to a Sooners team that is just 4-14 ATS at home including 2-10 ATS as home favorites. But, the home team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. With unranked Oklahoma favored as they are the oddsmaker is telling 'us' the Cyclones will subside. Take OKLAHOMA! |

01-08-22 | Notre Dame v. Georgia Tech +1.5 | 72-68 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 8 m | Show | |
Notre Dame at Georgia Tech 6:00 ET Yellow Jackets ( ) over Fighting Irish- When Notre Dame comes to town it is always a big deal and Atlanta will be humming tonight as the Fighting Irish fresh off wins over Pittsburgh and North Carolina bring their 1-7 ATS road record with them. After a 5-1 start to the season Georgia Tech has dropped six of seven but are hosting a mediocre N.D. squad that is 2-9 ATS as favorites and 5-15 ATS in their last 20 games overall. Take the YELLOW JACKETS! 5 |

01-08-22 | Baylor v. TCU +10 | 76-64 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
Baylor at T.C.U. 5:00 ET Horned Frogs (+) over Bears- Owners of the nation's longest win streak Baylor has won 20 straight while TCU has won seven straight with their only blemish coming against Santa Clara in the SoCal Challenge. The Bears are on an incredible run and are 15-6-1 ATS as road favorites while the Frogs are 6-18-2 ATS in their last 26 home games. I look for both of those trends to come back to the center. Take TEXAS CHRISTIAN! |

01-08-22 | Grizzlies v. Clippers +2.5 | 123-108 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 35 m | Show | |
Memphis at L.A. Clippers 3:30 ET Clippers (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis has won seven straight games and is off a 30-point rout of lowly Detroit with Ja Morant averaging 27 points, 6.3 assists and 6.2 rebounds since his 9-game return from injury. Los Angeles has been floundering dropping their last two and 7-of-10 and has been a .500 or there about club all season. The Clippers are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings and are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games as home underdogs. Take LA CLIPPERS! |

01-07-22 | Hawks +3.5 v. Lakers | 118-134 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 3 m | Show | |
Atlanta at L.A. Lakers 10:00 ET Hawks (+) over Lakers- A change has taken place of late with the Lakers as LeBron James has on more ball handling responsibilities and the result is wins and a dramatic drop in turnovers. The best thing that can happen tp Los Angels is to get the ball out of Westbrooks hands as he alone averages over five turnovers a game. Trae Young is returning after a 56-point effort and four others return to action for the Hawks tonight who are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 road games and the Lakers are 8-18 ATS as home favorites. Take ATLANTA! |

01-07-22 | Xavier v. Butler +4.5 | 87-72 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
Xavier at Butler 8:30 ET Bulldogs (+) over Musketeers- No. 22 Xavier certainly has the better club this season as their 11-2 record will attest as Butler at 8-5 has struggled have lost three times by 20-points or more. This game is listed as a home game for the Bulldogs but it is being played at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Both clubs are off Big East losses as the Musketeers fell to No. 6 Villanova on December 21 the last time they played and Butler lost to No. 24 Seton Hall at home on Tuesday. Xaviers is 0-4 ATS as road favorites and the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take BUTLER! |

01-07-22 | Mavs v. Rockets +3 | Top | 130-106 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 9 m | Show |
Dallas at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Mavericks- Dallas celebrated their Dirk Nowitzki honor Megabucks victory over Golden State Wednesday and have now won four straight. The Rockets blasted off against Washington last time out winning 114-111 breaking an eight game SU and ATS losing streak. Houston came to life after coach Silas suspended Kevin Porter and Christian Wood for one game and they responded. I'm looking for a Mavericks letdown after their heralded win and a spirited effort from the Rockets. Take HOUSTON! |

01-07-22 | Jazz v. Raptors -11.5 | 108-122 | Win | 100 | 10 h 35 m | Show | |
Utah at Toronto 7:30 ET Raptors (-) over Jazz- If you do a double or triple take when you first see the 'line' on this game I wouldn't be surprised. The send out 'price' was Utah -3 but this morning Toronto opened a double-digit favorite. Thinking how can this be as the Jazz have won 10 straight on the road and have defeated the Raptors the last three times that they have played. But, A-Ha...five Utah players have been ruled out for the game gutting their roster as 4-of-5 are starters. Take TORONTO! |

01-07-22 | Marquette v. Georgetown +2.5 | Top | 92-64 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 16 m | Show |
Marquette at Georgetown 6:30 ET Hoyas (+) over Golden Eagles- The former Warriors were a big winner for 'us' (Power Play) Tuesday as they pounded a tough No. 16 Providence squad 88-56 while the Hoyas last played on December 18 losing to TCU. Georgetown has been idle nearly three weeks and this is their conference opener as they had four Big East games postponed and had their first week of practice since a week before Christmas. I don't believe that Marquette can repeat the kind of performance they had against the Friars and the Hoyas should be chomping at the bit to get into action. Take GEORGETOWN! |

01-06-22 | Iowa +2.5 v. Wisconsin | Top | 78-87 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
Iowa at Wisconsin 9:00 ET Hawkeyes (+) over Badgers- No. 23 Wisconsin just posted a huge 74-69 win over No. 3 Purdue and will host Iowa who average 87.4 PPG. Since dropping three in-a-row in December Iowa has won four straight and have won the last four meetings with the Badgers with the road team going 2-0-2 ATS. The Hawkeyes are 6-1 ATS after a SU win and are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games overall. Take IOWA! |

01-06-22 | Warriors v. Pelicans +3.5 | Top | 96-101 | Win | 100 | 12 h 55 m | Show |
Golden State at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Warriors- If this isn't a typo there is something 'rotten in Denmark.' You have got to be kidding me with this opening line at New Orleans where the NBA's best is a meager favorite against one of the league dregs. My lone release yesterday 'we' posted Dallas over the Warriors and won our Megabucks and in that contest Steph Curry was injured and is not expected to play. The Pelicans have dropped their last three and 4-of-5 while Golden State is 1-4 ATS against teams with losing records.Take NEW ORLEANS! |

01-05-22 | Heat v. Blazers +2 | 115-109 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 50 m | Show | |
Miami at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Heat- I hate it, I really do, but there is no way getting around having to play 'against' the Heat. I know that they are well coached and it's probably a mismatch between Eric Sopelstra who always has his team ready to play through all kinds of adversities. Portland is a different teams than years' past and now we get to see why it took so long for Chauncey Billups to get a job. But, the heart and sole of this South Beach Crew is Jimmy Butler and he left the game against the Warriors last time out with an ankle injury and will be down for at least a week. Blazers are 5-2 ATS at home against the Heat...take PORTLAND! |

01-05-22 | Texas Tech +4 v. Iowa State | 47-51 | Push | 0 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
Texas Tech at Iowa State 9:00 ET Red Raiders (+) over Cyclones- Looks like 'we' will need a turn-about in this contest if 'we' are to come out with a victory. Texas Tech take to the road for just the second time in 12 games played and they are 0-1 in true road games losing at Providence 72-68 on Dec. 1. Iowa State, meanwhile is 9-1 SU at home with their lone loss on New Year's Day to No. 1 Baylor 77-72. There will be a huge difference in styles as the Red Raiders are averaging 78.2 PPG while the Cyclone defense allows just 57.7 PPG. State is just 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games as home favorites. Take TEXAS TECH! |

01-05-22 | North Carolina v. Notre Dame +2.5 | Top | 73-78 | Win | 100 | 10 h 37 m | Show |
North Carolina at Notre Dame 9:00 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Tar Heels- After slow starts to the season both of these clubs have picked up their play as North Carolina is 3-0 in true road games and have won 7-of-8 while the Fighting Irish are 5-0 SU at home. Notre Dame (7-5) has won their last three and 4-of-5 but are 2-7 ATS in their last nine home games ATS. This is just a game the Irish should be primed for although they are 4-15 ATS in their last 19 games overall. Take NOTRE DAME! |
