At 7 pm, our selection is on the Maine Black Bears + the points over Minnesota. This will be the Golden Gophers' final non-conference tune-up before their Big 10 schedule resumes (they played Ohio State and Nebraska earlier this month). The Gophers have won 4 straight, and have covered their last six. But they also haven't played a game in over a week, so I expect some rust this evening. Maine is 14-5 ATS as a double digit underdog. And it's also 21-11 ATS off a loss vs. an opponent off a win. Finally, the Black Bears fall into an 871-649-31 ATS system of mine. Take Maine + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

Cincy is a stellar 15-0 ATS off an ATS loss, when it wasn't favored by more than 21 points, so I look for it to blow out Evansville tonight. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs + the points over Portland. This is the first of back to back games between these clubs. (Game #2 will be played here tomorrow night.) The Blazers pulled off an upset of the Sacramento Kings, 130-113, on Tuesday. But that upset win has triggered a negative 41-86 ATS system of mine which fades certain teams off home upset victories. The Spurs come into this game off 5 straight losses, including a 130-118 loss to the Jazz two days ago. And coach Gregg Popovich is extremely displeased with his team's lack of effort on the defensive end (and has expressed his displeasure vociferously over the last 2 days). The Spurs are 163-118 ATS in the regular season off a loss by more than 10 points. I expect a better performance by the Silver and Black tonight, and we'll take the points.

At 5 pm, our selection is on the Pacific Tigers + the points over Cal Davis. The Mustangs are favored on the road, even though they're 3-5 SU, and off an upset loss as a 9-point favorite vs. Wisconsin-Milwaukee. We'll fade Cal Davis, and take the points with Pacific. For technical support, consider that losing teams, off a SU/ATS loss, have covered just 107 of 255 as road favorites vs. non-conference foes. Take Pacific + the points.

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the Indianapolis Colts over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Colts were blown out, 34-14, by Cincinnati last week, as a 3-point road underdog. So, Indianapolis failed to cover the spread by 17 points. But that bodes well for them here, at home, vs. Pittsburgh, as the Colts are 35-10 ATS off a straight-up loss, if they failed to cover the spread in that previous game by 8 or more points. Take Indianapolis. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Hawks + the points over the Toronto Raptors. This is the 2nd of back-to-back meetings in Toronto between these teams. The Raptors won, 135-128, on Tuesday, as a 2.5-point favorite. This game is also competitively-priced with a point spread of 3 points or less. And when NBA teams have played back to back games vs. the same opponent, each with a point spread of 3 or less, the straight-up loser of the prior meeting has covered 57% of the time. And this applies to both regular season, and playoff games. Take the Hawks + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
