01-12-21 | Kansas v. Oklahoma State +4 | Top | 70-75 | Win | 100 | 6 h 17 m | Show |
Kansas at Oklahoma State 8:00 ET Cowboys (+) over Jayhawks- Kansas may have the matchup they want as coach Bill Self prefers to play an 'inside' game as their 'big man' David McCormack is expected to clean the boards and managed to score 37 points in the past two games including scoring the game winner against Oklahoma Saturday. The Cowboys play tough defense allowing opponents just 39% FG shooting although undersized and ranking No. 222 in defensive rebounding. The Jayhawks are tough on the road going 9-2 ATS as favorites but State is 4-1 ATS as underdogs and the home team is 5-1 ATS in their last six home games. Take OKLAHOMA STATE! |

01-12-21 | Heat v. 76ers -7 | Top | 134-137 | Loss | -106 | 6 h 49 m | Show |
Miami at Philadelphia 7:00 ET 76ers (-) over Heat- This has got to be the COVID game of the year with both clubs struggling to provide the minimum of eight available players. Miami has their last game cancelled against Boston as the Heat had eight players on the protocol list. Philadelphia has had their own virus issues and have dropped three straight after starting the season 7-1. The Sixers were beaten in Atlanta last night as they were missing five players of their own but they expect the return of en Simmons tonight. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

01-11-21 | Ohio State v. Alabama -8.5 | Top | 24-52 | Win | 100 | 6 h 24 m | Show |
Ohio State vs Alabama 5:00 ET Buckeyes (+) over Crimson Tide- Ohio State had their best game of the year using Dabo's 'Bulletin-board' material to dismantle Clemson and established that they belong here. Alabama's 31-14 win over Notre Dame was never in doubt as they scored the first time they had the ball and led 14-0 after having had two possessions and controlled the outcome from that point. The Tide may welcome wide receiver Jaylen Waddle back to saddle up with Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith as if QB Mac Jones didn't have enough ammo with Najee Harris (27 TD's) running the ball. OSU QB Justin Fields is supposed to be banged-up but I'm sure he will be out there. Take ALABAMA! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Suns v. Wizards +5.5 | Top | 107-128 | Win | 100 | 4 h 45 m | Show |
Phoenix at Washington 7:05 ET Wizards (+) over Suns- A year ago these two clubs were both outsiders trying to reach the playoffs. Both teams made changes in the off-season and they both have different looks and results. Phoenix has added Chris Paul and is off to a 7-3 start including 4-2 AU on the road. The Suns have improved to the point where they are favored on the road while the Wizards with the addition of the most 'overrated' player in NBA history Russell Westbrook now hooked up with scorer Bradley Beal are last in defense allowing 123 ppg. Although Phoenix is 12-2 ATS at Washington this is the first time that they have been favored here. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Colorado v. Utah +3 | Top | 65-58 | Loss | -112 | 5 h 33 m | Show |
Colorado at Utah 6:00 ET Utes (+) over Buffaloes- Colorado who is off a 79-72 home win over Oregon were in the middle of a four-game home stand but instead are on the road in Salt Lake City tonight. Utah on the other hand is also off a home game against the Ducks but with different results as they fell 79-73 and have lost three straight in Pac-12 play. The Buffaloes are 6-1 ATS in their last games seven as favorites but it is a different story when on the road where as favorites as they are 6-16 ATS in that role and 11-40-1 ATS in their last 52 road games overall. Take UTAH! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Raptors -3 v. Warriors | Top | 105-106 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 48 m | Show |
Toronto at Golden State 8:30 ET Raptors (+) over Warriors- Golden State has picked up the tempo and are off a great come-from-behind win over the LA Clippers, trailing by 20-points in the second half Curry goes on a run and the win outright 115-105 going away. The Raptors finally put and end to a slide that saw them dropped 7-of-8 ATS as they ran away from the Kings in Sacramento 144-123. Toronto has been tough on the road against winning teams and are 21-10 ATS in that role. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Browns +6 v. Steelers | Top | 48-37 | Win | 101 | 27 h 49 m | Show |
Cleveland at Pittsburgh 8:15 ET Browns (+) over Steelers- No surprises here at these two rivals meet for the third time this season and the second week in-a-row. These two split the season series with Pittsburgh getting the money in both games and four of the last five with the home team going 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. No matter what issues I read about concerning Cleveland as to players, coaches and not being able to use their facilities the line has not moved. The Steelers were 11-0 and have dropped four of five and I believe have been exposed and just won't have enough to get by here. Browns ground game will be the difference. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Cincinnati +2.5 v. Wichita State | Top | 76-82 | Loss | -119 | 5 h 20 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Wichita State 4:30 ET Bearcats (+) over Shockers- The Bearcats who have been the 'kiss-of-death' to backers broke through with an outright win over SMU for 'us' last time out and from what I am hearing they actually like what it feels like to be a winner. So, I am giving them another opportunity to prove their worth against not-so talented group of Shockers. Hey how about this the underdog is 4-0 ATS in their season and the road team is 7-0 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take CINCINNATI! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Rams +3.5 v. Seahawks | Top | 30-20 | Win | 100 | 22 h 10 m | Show |
L.A. Rams at Seattle 4:40 ET Rams (+) over Seahawks- This could be the most difficult of all to call because of the quarterback situation with the Rams. Starter Jared Goff was replaced by first time starter John Wolford who guided LA to an 18-7 victory over Arizona. Seattle defeated the Rams here two weeks ago with Goff as a starter 20-9 although the Seahawks were held to 292 yards total offense. LA has the NFL's No.1 defense hands down in points, yards , FD's and more. Seattle is 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings and 11-5 ATS as hosts.But, Seattle is 1-7 ATS following a SU win and 1-5 versus the NFC while the Rams are 20-7-1 ATS against the NFC and are 5-2 ATS in last seven as road underdogs. I expect an outright victory...take the RAMS! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Mississippi State v. Vanderbilt +3.5 | Top | 84-81 | Win | 100 | 2 h 5 m | Show |
Mississippi State at Vanderbilt 1:00 ET Commodores (+) over Bulldogs- Mississippi State is coming off a great come-from-behind win over No. 13 Missouri 78-63 trailing by 16 at one point while Vanderbilt trailed Florida and Kentucky and never recovered and stand 0-2 in SEC play. The only positive trend that I can find for the 'Doors is that the underdog is 9-4-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings and that they are 4-2 SU at home. Bad spot for Bulldogs who may get caught napping. Take VANDERBILT! |
|||||||
01-08-21 | Raptors -5 v. Kings | Top | 144-123 | Win | 100 | 9 h 25 m | Show |
Toronto at Sacramento 10:00 ET Raptors (-) over Kings- Toronto who won the NBA championship two seasons ago is 1-6 SU this year and 0-4 SU and ATS on the road. 0-4 ATS on the road and yet they are favored here at Sacramento where the Kings are 3-1 SU. This doesn't make any kind of sense what-so-ever although the Kings De'Aaron Fox strained his right hamstring last time out and mostly likely will be sidelined tonight. The Raptors are 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings and the Kings 1-6 ATS after scoring over 125 points the pervious game. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
01-08-21 | Purdue +5.5 v. Michigan State | Top | 55-54 | Win | 100 | 6 h 16 m | Show |
Purdue at Michigan State 7:00 ET Boilermakers (+) over Spartans- Boilermakers have covered but once in their last nine games going 1-6-2 ATS and have dropped their last two straight-up. Michigan State is bouncing back from a 3-game slide with a pair of wins over Nebraska and No. 13 Rutgers but had lost seven straight to the 'number' before the win over the Scarlet Knights. Purdue has won the past two meetings and are 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take the BOILERMAKERS! |
|||||||
01-07-21 | USC +4.5 v. Arizona | Top | 87-73 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show |
U.S.C. at Arizona 9:00 ET Trojans (+) over Wildcats- This could play out as one of the better Pac -12 match-ups as 9-1 unranked Arizona winners of four straight including a pair of wins over the Washington schools hosts 6-2 USC off a smothering win over Utah. The Trojans who have the size to get the ball off the rim held the Utes to 27.9% shooting and just 46 points. Arizona also makes claim to the ball off the boards as they possess a plus-11.4 edge in rebounds. USC is 7-1 ATS in their last eight games as road underdogs and 17-7 ATS against teams with a winning record while Arizona is 2-6 ATS against teams with a winning record. Take SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA! |
|||||||
01-07-21 | Iowa v. Maryland +5.5 | Top | 89-67 | Loss | -109 | 6 h 23 m | Show |
Iowa at Maryland 7:00 ET Terrapins (+) over Hawkeyes- Iowa as most are aware have one of the best 'big men' in the country in Luke Garza but many are not aware of the fact that they are a great 3-point shooting team that helps open the inside. The Hawkeyes have rebounded from their OT loss at Minnesota and are off a 77-75 win at No. 14 Rutgers. Maryland has dropped two straight after an upset win at Wisconsin and will try and get it done with defense as they allow 66.6 ppg while Iowa scores at a 92.7 clip. The trends are all one-sided and if I wrote them out it might steer me away from who I believe is the winner. Take MARYLAND! |
|||||||
01-06-21 | Wizards +6.5 v. 76ers | Top | 136-141 | Win | 100 | 8 h 45 m | Show |
Washington at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over 76ers- Can Doc Rivers really be the difference in Philadelphia...as the 76ers who have been the biggest underachievers in the NBA the past three seasons currently have the best record (6-1) in the league. 'We' caught 'on' the Sixers three times during their four game SU and ATS streak but now it's about to turn. Washington started in horrid fashion losing their first five games including opening night to Philadelphia 113-107. The Wizards have won their last two as Westbrook and Beal are starting to mesh. Although they haven't fared well in Philly the Wiz are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
01-06-21 | Virginia Tech +5 v. Louisville | Top | 71-73 | Win | 100 | 6 h 53 m | Show |
Virginia Tech at Louisville 6:30 ET Hokies (+) over Cardinals- No. 19 Virginia Tech (8-1) has played seven games at home and two on neutral sights which makes this their first true road game of the season. But, how much of an 'actual' road game can this be if there are no spectators, no fans there to intimate their opponents and to harass the refs. Still, the Hokies are 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games and are 7-17 ATS in their last 24 overall. The Hokies had their game with Virginia postponed so it has been a week since their 80-78 win over Miami their fourth straight. No. 25 Louisville has won three straight after suffering pounding at Wisconsin 85-48 their sole loss and are 6-2-1 ATS at home. Take VIRGINIA TECH! |
|||||||
01-05-21 | Missouri v. Mississippi State +2.5 | Top | 63-78 | Win | 100 | 10 h 31 m | Show |
Missouri at Mississippi State 9:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Tigers- No. 13 Missouri is the surprise of the SEC (aside from Kentucky being 2-6) and are 7-1 and coming off a huge win at Arkansas. That makes them but 1-1 in conference play falling to Tennessee 73-53. Mississippi State was good to 'us' at Georgia winning 83-73 outright as a 3-point dog a week ago but fell to Kentucky in overtime at home Saturday 78-73. The Tigers haven measured up to the competition on the road going 3-8 ATS in their last 11 against teams with winning records while the Bulldogs are 10-4 ATS after a SU loss. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |
|||||||
01-04-21 | Knicks +7 v. Hawks | Top | 113-108 | Win | 100 | 8 h 18 m | Show |
New York at Atlanta 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Hawks- Break-up the Knicks! New York has won 3-of-4 and two of three which came on the road on this current four game trip. Atlanta's free wheeling style opened the season with three straight wins and 4-of-5 also incurred their defeat at the hands of Cleveland Saturday as they committed 20 turnovers. The Knicks have a completely new outlook under Tom Thibodeau and attitude and the difference is striking. NYK is 3-0-1 ATS in their last four trips to Atlanta while the Hawks are 0-4-1 ATS in their last five games as home favorites. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
01-03-21 | Blazers v. Warriors +5.5 | Top | 122-137 | Win | 100 | 9 h 11 m | Show |
Portland at Golden State 8:30 ET Warriors (+) over Trailblazers- This is the second of the two-game home series between these two as the Trailblazers took out the Warriors 123-98 Friday night. In that game Portland turn the tide by made 20 3-point shots while the Warriors made only seven. Golden State at times looks like the worst the in the NBA as all of their three losses have come by double-digits losing by 26, 39 and 25 points as their defense ranks No. 30 (Dead last). Although State is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games they are 24-11 ATS against the Blazers at home. Take GOLDEN STATE! |

01-02-21 | Cavs +7 v. Hawks | Top | 96-91 | Win | 100 | 11 h 31 m | Show |
Cleveland at Atlanta 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over Hawks- The Hawks are flying high and if Trae Young continues to score at this rate many will be hard pressed to match Atlanta's offensive output. They are No.1 in scoring at 129 ppg and are 4-1 coming off a huge 114-96 win at Brooklyn and return home for this game tonight. Cleveland jumped out 2-0 on the season and have dropped their last two including a 119-99 loss to Indiana two nights ago. The Cavaliers will be without Kevin Love and often that is a plus as they have started playing more competitive basketball going 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games. Atlanta as favorites haven't done all that well going 1-3-1 ATS in their last five and they are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 on zero days rest. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
01-02-21 | Oregon +5 v. Iowa State | Top | 17-34 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 42 m | Show |
Oregon vs Iowa State 4:00 ET Ducks (+) over Cyclones- Wally Pipp felt ill took himself out of the lineup and never played again as Lou Gehrig did the next 2,130 games. Well, the Washington Huskies felt ill and the Oregon Ducks filled in quite nicely in the Pac-12 Championship game defeating USC 31-24 and they are still playing. Iowa State recovered after an opening week loss to Louisiana-Lafayette winning 8-of-9 before falling in the Big-12 Championship game to Oklahoma 27-21. Like most Pac-12 teams the Ducks struggle out of conference 5-11-1 ATS last 17 but are 25-9 ATS playing on grass. Although Iowa State is 16-7 ATS after a SU loss they are 2-7 ATS in non-conference games and 0-6 ATS at neutral sites. Take OREGON! |
|||||||
01-02-21 | LSU +1.5 v. Florida | Top | 79-83 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 59 m | Show |
LSU at Florida 2:00 ET Tigers (+) over Gators- Both clubs are coming off dominate performances as Florida was never headed at Vanderbilt winning 91-72 while the Tigers manhandled Texas A&M 77-54. I must give the gators credit as they are 4-1 and have played four of their first five games away from home only hosting Stetson winning 86-40 as 24-point favorites. LSU (6-1) unlike the Gators have played just one true road game at St. Louis receiving their only defeat 85-81 as the Billikens made 44-of-70 shots.Neither team has any impressive trends to speak of other than the road team is 5-1-1 in the last seven meetings. Take LSU! |
|||||||
01-01-21 | Clippers v. Jazz +3.5 | Top | 100-106 | Win | 100 | 10 h 13 m | Show |
L.A. Clippers at Utah 9:00 ET Jazz (+) over Clippers- I wonder about these 4-1 LA Clippers because in their loss to Dallas they scored just 27 points in the entire first half. Now, I will give you that Leonard was not in the lineup, but they have played and won countless times while he's getting his nails clipped. After opening with a win at Portland the Jazz have failed to cover three straight and squeezed out their lone will against the striped bare Oklahoma City Thunder. Going back to last season the Jazz opening win was the only ATS win in their last nine games overall. Still, it's time...take UTAH! |
|||||||
01-01-21 | Ohio State +7.5 v. Clemson | Top | 49-28 | Win | 100 | 27 h 39 m | Show |
Ohio State vs Clemson 8:00 ET Buckeyes (+) over Tigers- No. 11, yup, that where Dabo Swinney ranks the Buckeyes and if you don't think that statement wasn't billboard material think again. The Tigers' head coach wasn't actually saying he thinks they are the 11th beat team in the country he was stating that you shouldn't be playing for the NCAA Championship with a five-game regular season resume. I understand that Trevor Lawrence is who we think he is but the Buckeyes will have him in their sights. Ohio State looked lack luster and even sluggish in the Big Ten Championship game against Northwestern and we find out for good reason. The last time these two met OSU had a 16-0 lead 25 minutes into the game and Clemson closed strong winning 29-23. This time the Buckeyes get it done a full 60 minutes. Take OHIO STATE! |
|||||||
12-31-20 | Michigan v. Maryland +1.5 | Top | 84-73 | Loss | -109 | 19 h 15 m | Show |
Michigan at Maryland 7:00 ET Terrapins (+) over Wolverines- So here comes No. 16 ranked and undefeated Michigan (7-0) into College Park and the Terrapins return home after upsetting ranked Wisconsin in Madison. The Wolverines just had an easy time as Nebraska where they were never threatened winning 80-69 as a 7.5-point favorite. That was Michigan's first game since Dec. 13 and in their last meeting in the final game last season the Big Ten co-champs who closed the season with a 83-70 win over the visiting Wolverines. Take MARYLAND! |
|||||||
12-31-20 | Knicks v. Raptors -9 | Top | 83-100 | Win | 100 | 18 h 21 m | Show |
New York at Toronto 7:30 ET Raptors (-) over Knicks- Okay, enough le'ts get back to reality! Having 'had' the Knicks both games I am quite comfortable looking to pay against them here. Toronto who isn't sure where home is hasn't won a game (0-3) and they haven't covered' either. Now, the Raptors who have defeated New York eight straight times are a healthy 9-point favorite. If ever there was a spot to use a cliché this is 'what the doctor ordered' as Toronto needs a fix in the worst way. Last time out the blew a 14-point second half lead to the 76ers and they have already claimed that this is a 'must win' and I agree. Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
12-31-20 | West Virginia -6.5 v. Army | Top | 24-21 | Loss | -117 | 19 h 57 m | Show |
West Virginia vs Army 4:00 ET Mountaineers (-) over Cadets- Having been a former platoon Sergeant in the US Army it pains me to even write this up. Fort Campbell, KY and Fort Sill, OK stand proud as are both coming under fire for it's past policies and practices. After defeating Navy and Air Force on consecutive Saturdays to end the season the Cadets got this opportunity when Tennessee developed issues. So, the Army who had packed up their gear and ended their season had to unpack and start the 'show' up for one more game when this invite came along. Meanwhile, West Virginia hasn't missed a beat continuing to practice through all the crap. I could go on about schedules trends and such but it still comes down the the Cadets having ended a satisfying season (9-2 SU) and then end up getting drafted to play. Take the MOUNTAINEERS! |
|||||||
12-30-20 | Lakers v. Spurs +5.5 | Top | 121-107 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 38 m | Show |
L.A. Lakers at San Antonio 8:30 ET Spurs (+) over Lakers- Los Angeles open the season with four games at home won the middle two while dropping their opener to the Clippers and Monday to Portland. They take to the road for the first time and are 1-3-1 ATS in their last away games. Lebron has been as good as ever and the Lakers still haven't settled in or found their chemistry, with Davis and others in-and-out things may take a bit of time. But, we are still talking about LeBron James who can and is the difference ANY time he decides. San Antonio broke out with a pair of wins but were totally out of whack last time out as they didn't box out allowing 13 offensive rebounds, committed 15 turnovers and made only eight free throws. Spurs 18-8 ATS in last 26 as home underdogs. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-30-20 | Florida +6 v. Oklahoma | Top | 20-55 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 56 m | Show |
Florida vs Oklahoma 8:00 ET Gators (+) over Sooners- In this the most unusual of seasons in all sports the Cotton Bowl which set up as one of the best games of the entire bowl venue has been tainted by defections. Florida and Oklahoma ranked 7 and 6 were to have a battle matching epic offenses that were running on all 16 cylinders. Both quarterbacks Florida's Kyle Trask and the Sooners Spencer Rattler are exceptional as the Gator senior has 43 TD passes (10 more than any other QB) and the red-shirt Sooners freshman one of the nations top recruits and he has completed 68% of his passes with 25 TD passes averaging 280 ypg. But, as you must have noticed by now the line which had the Gators favored and climbing to minus-3 has turned and jumped to Oklahoma -3 and then -4, 4.5, 5.5 and 6 and it will keep climbing until kickoff. The reason for this is that a number of Florida receivers will not be playing. If it's true that can be a big blow to the Gators, but that's how stars are born. So, we will have Florida and wait as long as, we can before making a play. Take FLORIDA! |
|||||||
12-30-20 | Mississippi State +2 v. Georgia | Top | 83-73 | Win | 100 | 6 h 51 m | Show |
Mississippi State at Georgia 7:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Bulldogs- So big bad Georgia is undefeated (7-0) but was so lightly regarded by the oddsmakers that two games ago against a 2-5 Cincinnati team they were a 2-point underdog at home. Miss State is 4-0 at home and 0-3 on the road and all three were at neutral sites against better competition. This is the start of a 'new' season as it is the SEC opener for both and it takes on that little something extra. Of any trends of significance Georgia holds the edge but the oddsmaker say different. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |
|||||||
12-29-20 | Colorado v. Texas -7 | Top | 23-55 | Win | 100 | 25 h 47 m | Show |
Texas vs Colorado 9:00 ET Longhorns (-) over Buffaloes- No. 20 Texas closed their season with a rush winning four of their last five heading into their fourth straight bowl under Tom Herman and they are 3-0 the past three bowls. Under first year coach Karl Dorrell Colorado was the surprise of the Pac-12 opening the season with an impressive win over UCLA but finished on a down note losing at home to Utah.The price is high to me as Texas is just 1-3-1 ATS in last five as favorites although they are 7-1 ATS in their last eight non-conference games and 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings. Buffs are only 3-8 ATS after a SU loss (before Dorrell) but also 5-2 ATS out of conference. Take TEXAS! |
|||||||
12-29-20 | Knicks +3.5 v. Cavs | Top | 95-86 | Win | 100 | 8 h 60 m | Show |
New York at Cleveland 7:00 ET Knicks (+) over Cavaliers- Break-up the Cavs, no hey break-up the Knicks! All of a sudden these two dog franchises have show life and have actually won some games. Cleveland is 3-0 both SU and ATS having defeated Charlotte, Detroit and Philadelphia not exactly the top tier of NBA clubs but their was one common denominator...the were underdogs in all three. The turnaround here is that they have become the favorite and have a target on their back. New York finally jumped into the win column handing Tom Thibodeau his first win with a 130-110 pounding of Milwaukee. That's a great confidence builder for this young Knicks team who look much improved. Take NEW YORK! |

12-29-20 | Purdue +3.5 v. Rutgers | Top | 76-81 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 31 m | Show |
Purdue at Rutgers 7:00 ET Boilermakers (+) over Scarlet Knights- Rutgers was 6-0 with a pair of Big Ten wins over Maryland and Illinois and then ran into Ohio State was were out-classed 80-68 after building a 13-point lead. The Scarlet Knights won their first five games by double-digits but a 20-1 run by the Buckeyes brought Rutgers back to reality. The are lead by one-gang Ron Harper Jr. who can't do it alone and the Knights will be short handed as a pair of their standout freshman are questionable. Purdue had won the first eight meetings between the two until last season when Rutgers swept the series (2-0) and this time out the boilermakers get their revenge. Take PURDUE! |

12-28-20 | Colorado +3 v. Arizona | Top | 74-88 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 50 m | Show |
Colorado at Arizona 9:00 ET Buffaloes (+) over Wildcats- Something smells here! Arizona (6-1) who perennially is a national contender on the hardwood is a meager favorite at home over Colorado who since joining the Pac-12 in 2011 has never won in Tucson. Get this the Buffaloes are 13-39 ATS in their last 52 road games and yet they virtually have to win the game outright to win the bet. Coach Sean Miller said of his Wildcats he has five new faces starting and they may have won six games but they are 0-1 against Division I schools. Losing to Stanford in their conference opener. The Buffaloes are a veteran team that leads the nation in free throw percentage (85.9%) while Arizona is shooting 54.4% at the line in their last two games. Take COLORADO! |

12-28-20 | Rockets v. Nuggets -6.5 | Top | 111-124 | Win | 100 | 8 h 51 m | Show |
Houston at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (-) over Rockets- Denver is 0-2 on the season and yet is a 9-point favorite over a team that has the league's leading scorer the last three seasons in James Harden. But that's not all, Houston also has four players in quarantine and the league is still looking to take action against Harden for violations of the COVID regulations. Denver who went to the conference finals last season is 0-2 at home losing outright as 9.5-point favorites in both games. Although the Rockets are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings but they are 7-17 ATS on the road while despite the recent losses the Nuggets are 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 at home. Third time will be a charm for the Nuggets at home...take DENVER! |

12-28-20 | Bills v. Patriots +7.5 | Top | 38-9 | Loss | -124 | 24 h 5 m | Show |
New England at Buffalo 8:15 ET Patriots (+) over Bills- It has just got to be! With Buffalo (11-3) having already clinched the AFC East could be looking past the Patriots toward the playoffs but having won the Division for the first time in 21 years (1999) they may want to made a statement to New England who has dominated the AFC East since Belichick's arrival. Getting Cam Newton to replace Tom Brady was a one-year experiment that just didn't work as he has eight games without a touchdown pass and New England has to rebuild from the bottom up. I'm really impressed with Josh Allen this season and his top receiver Stephon Diggs but, I can see the Bills taking their foot off the gas while the Pats play for pride. Take NEW ENGLAND |

Philadelphia at Cleveland 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over 76ers- The Sixers seem to have a new attitude under Doc Rivers leadership as Joel Embiid looks rejuvenated as he averages 28 points and 12 rebounds. Cleveland has won their first two games for the first time since LeBron James left as No. 1 draft pick Collin Sexton has been unstoppable and is off a 32 point performance. Kevin Love is back in the lineup and the Sixers were just 10-24 on the road last season. Take the CAVALIERS! |

12-27-20 | Panthers +1 v. Washington Football Team | Top | 20-13 | Win | 100 | 16 h 18 m | Show |
Carolina at Washington 4:05 ET Panthers (+) over 'Those Guys'- Carolina is one of those team that have played much better than their record shows as they fought through injuries to key personnel. The Panthers have been especially under-rated on the road as they are 2-5 SU but get this 6-1 ATS. So, here we have division leader Washington who must win to stay in playoff contention only a 1-point favorite at home. It just looks the 'books' know Haskins can't cut it. Cats are 8-1 in last nine as road underdogs while the Football Team is 1-4 ATS as favorites and 6-13 ATS after a SU loss. Take CAROLINA! |

Philadelphia at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over 76ers- The 76ers did their thing staging a fourth quarter comeback in defeating the Wizards gaining the victory with a non-cover. In their opener against Indiana New York held a lead at the half and then just could keep pace as the Pacers just ran over the Knicks in the second half. New York under their first year with veteran coach Tom Thibodeau showed some signs of promise as RJ Barrett looked like the player the Knicks thought he could be. I'm not sure if Philadelphia has solved any of their internal issues but the are still 16-35-2 ATS in their last 53 road games. Take NEW YORK! |

San Francisco at Arizona 4:30 ET '49ers (+) over Cardinals- San Francisco has had some kind of year and I mean in the NFL not what's going on in their streets but the results have been similar a total disaster. They were five minutes away from winning the Super Bowl and now they will try and be a spoiler against Arizona who can clinch a Wild Card spot with a win here. With backup QB Mullins going down last week the Niners signed Josh Rosen but C.J. Beathard will start and they are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as underdogs. How much of a road game this is can be questioned as San Francisco play their home game here now. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

12-26-20 | Virginia +9 v. Gonzaga | Top | 75-98 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 6 m | Show |
Gonzaga at Virginia 4:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Bulldogs- No. 15 Virginia was looking to prove themselves against ranked teams like Villanova, Florida and Michigan State all of which were cancelled do to COVID issues. The Cavaliers have won three straight but haven't played anyone the likes No. 1 Gonzaga's (6-0) who just played a pair of games against Northwestern State just to stay sharp as they won by 38 and 17 as 39 and 43-point favorites. Virginia (4-1) will be facing a Bulldogs team that averages 95PPG and Tony Bennett will have his No. 5 ranked defense ready and they rise to meet their competition and are 37-16 ATS in their last 53 games as an underdog. Take VIRGINIA! |

L.A. Clippers at Denver 10:30 ET Nuggets (+) over Clippers- I just love the way this one sets itself up as the Clippers come off their opening night win over the NBA Champs and take to the road against a beaten-favorite. Denver lost in overtime at Sacramento and return home hungry for their first win of the season. The last time these two met was during the 'Bubble Playoffs' and LA had a 3-1 game lead in the series only to see the Nuggets come back with three straight wins. In their loss to the Kings Jamal Murray had one field goal before fouling out, I expect a much better performance tonight. Denver 10-4 ATS as home dogs. Take NUGGETS! |

Marshall vs. Buffalo 2:30 ET Thundering Herd (+) over Bulls- Both these non-Big 5 clubs started the season with prolonged winning streaks as Marshall was 7-0 before getting pasted 20-0 by Rice (they also lost to UAB 22-13 in their next game) while Buffalo was 5-0 entering their MAC Championship game where they were bested by Ball State 38-28 last Friday. The Bulls have the flash with Jaret Patterson who ran for 301 and 409-yard in back-to-back games but was removed in the final quarter as he injured his right knee. The Thundering Herd are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 as underdogs and 7-1 ATS in their last eight bowl games while Buffalo is 1-7 ATS at neutral sites. Take MARSHALL! |

Hawaii vs Houston 3:30 ET Cougars (-) over Rainbow Warriors- How 'bout diss, the New Mexico Bowl is being played in Frisco, Texas somewhere in that huge state near Dallas. Houston (3-4) has dropped their three after having eight games postponed or cancelled is 19-7 against Mountain West teams and they want to finish the season at .500. Hawaii who is used to playing and hosting their own bowl game will be playing a bowl game on the mainland for just the third time. The Rainbows defeated the Cougars 54-48 in 3OT's in the 2003 Hawaii Bowl and the cats have been waiting for revenge ever since (Ya think?)! Aside the Islanders are 17-41 ATS against teams with losing records and 19-46 ATS after an ATS loss. Houston who plays on field turf is 20-8 on natural grass. Take HOUSTON! |

San Antonio at Memphis 8:00 ET Spurs (+) over Grizzlies- Memphis who has the youngest roster in the NBA averaging just 24 years of age qualified as the 8th seed in last seasons playoffs but loss a one-game play-in game to Portland ended their surprising season. The Grizzlies had a strong preseason winning their first three while San Antonio failed to win a game going 0-3 and losing all three game by at least 13 points. This is Popovich at his best. Spurs are 5-1 ATS as underdogs and Memphis is 2-7 ATS in their last seven overall. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

Villanova at Marquette 7:00 ET Golden Eagles (+) over Wildcats- No. 5 Villanova has already beaten a pair of ranked teams in Texas and Arizona State and have run off five straight winners since their lone loss in overtime against Virginia Tech. Marquette has dropped 3-of-4 winning at Creighton but losing at UCLA and Xavier and falling to Seton Hall at home. The Wildcats are the better club but the Golden Eagles are in a in a foul mood should be ready to bring this one down to the final buzzer. Take MARQUETTE! |

L.A. Clippers at L. A. Lakers 10:00 ET Clippers (+) over Lakers- The defending NBA champion Lakers will open the season against the Clippers and their will be no home court advantage. Not only because fans won't be allowed to attend but of course because the Clippers and Lakers play in the same building. LAL went 4-0 in the preseason and with their off-season acquisitions many believe they are even stronger while LAC who was 0-3 in the preseason remained pat for the most part. Okay, he's meaningless support for 'our' side...Clippers are 7-0 ATS when playing the Lakers as visitors. Take CLIPPERS! |

Cleveland at New York Giants 8;20 ET Giants (+) over Browns- Daniel Jones is out and Colt McCoy is in for the Giants and there will be no homecoming or welcoming party here for Odell Beckham. New York had their 4-game win streak stop by Arizona last week and they were never in it while Cleveland had their own 4-game win streak stopped by the Ravens on Monday night. The Browns (9-4) are much improved but are still 4-9-1 ATS after a SU loss while the Giants are 6-0 ATS after an ATS loss and 7-1 ATS in their last eight as underdogs and 4-1 ATS in the last four meetings.

Alabama vs Florida 8:00 ET Gators (+) over Crimson Tide- Alabama opened the season by allowing 24, 48, and 24 points and it was said that they had defensive weaknesses. Well, in their last six games they have allowed 17, 0, 3, 13, 17and 3 a grand total of 53 points averaging allowing 9.1 points and now they are up against a powerhouse offense. Florida who has 609 yards in offense last week in their 37-34 loss to LSU leads the nation in passing yards with 386 and the Tide are ranked No. 5 overall with 538 yards per game. The Crimson Tide are 7-0 ATS in their last seven and are 5-1 TAS in the last six meetings while Gators are 5-1 ATS in last six games as underdogs. Ebb tide as Gators chomp! Take FLORIDA! |

Western Kentucky at Alabama 2:00 ET Hilltoppers (+) over Crimson Tide- Western Kentucky is 5-2 SU and only 2-5 ATS but have played some tough competition as their losses have come at the hands of Louisville and West Virginia while they have defeated a ranked Memphis team and Rhode Island. Alabama (4-2) has just one quality win over Providence and are 1-3-1 ATS in their last five games overall and are only 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 home games and 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 overall.

Oregon at U.S.C 8:00 ET Ducks (+3) over Trojans- Before the season started this was the match-up the experts all predicted would happen in the Pac-12 Championship Game but, it didn't happen the way that was expected. USC was unimpressive early struggling as double-digits favorites lucky just to beat ASU and a terrible Arizona team and last week they put together a miracle finish to beat and 'cover' against UCLA after trailing by 18-points late in the 3rd quarter. The Trojans were expecting to play Washington but 'you know what happened' as they aren't able to field a team. Oregon was 3-0 before dropping their last two on the road at Oregon State and California. These Ducks flew south for this game and they will crap on the Trojans! Take OREGON! |

12-17-20 | Seton Hall +4 v. Marquette | Top | 70-63 | Win | 100 | 10 h 13 m | Show |
Seton Hall at Marquette 9:00 ET Pirates (+) over Golden Eagles- After starting the season 1-3 Seton Hall has won three straight including their Big East opener a 77-68 win over St. John's last Friday and their Tuesday game against Xavier was postponed. Marquette has defeated a pair of ranked teams taking down No. 4 Wisconsin 67-65 two weeks ago and Creighton 89-84 on Monday. But, the Eagles are now favored and should have difficulty focusing and that means trouble as the Pirates have a surefire No.1 draft pick in Sandro Mamukelashvili (how 'bout dat) who posted 32 points shooting 12-of-18 with nine rebounds against a weak red Storm. Add that the road team is 21-7-1 ATS in the last 29 meetings and the underdog is 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings. Take SETON HALL! |

Duke at Notre Dame 9:00 ET Fighting Irish over Blue Devils- It's bad enough that No. 21 Duke is 2-2 but, to be 0-4 ATS has the alumni grumbling and having lost to a pair of Big Ten teams falling to Michigan State and Illinois at home. The Blue Devils take to the road for the first time against a Notre Dame team off a 64-63 win over Kentucky scoring just 16 points in the second have hanging on for the win. The Fighting Irish also lost to a pair of Big Ten powers MSU and Ohio State and this will be this their fourth game against a ranked opponent as they go 0-4. It's a difficult task for a 'Devil' to win at this Catholic venue even if it's Blue but coach 'K' has made deals with the 'Devil' before. Take DUKE! |

Ohio State at Purdue 7:00 ET Boilermakers (+) over Buckeyes- This is another unusual situation where we an undefeated ranked team No. 20 Ohio State (5-0) an underdog against a two loss club. Purdue (4-2) lost twice on the road against Clemson and at Miami but are a perfect 4-0 at home against inferior competition but are also 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games against teams with winning records. The Buckeyes have winning trends all over the board but one spot, they are just 20-45 ATS on the road against winning teams above .600. It's the BOILERMAKERS! |

Georgia Tech at Florida State 8:30 ET Yellow Jackets (+) over Seminoles- One of the biggest and least known home-court advantages belongs to Florida State who is 3-0 this season and have a 26-game winning streak when playing as hosts and a has won 68-of-71 home games. One of those wins came against Clemson (2-2) who dropped a 70-58 decision in Tallahassee last season and have lost 14 of the last 16 meetings overall. But, the Tigers are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 road games and 10-4 ATS as road underdogs. Add that the road team is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings and the underdog is 21-9 ATS in the last 30 meetings. After losing their first two the Yellow Jackets have bounced back with wins over Kentucky and Nebraska as their defense was the key factor. Take GEORGIA TECH! |

Marquette at Creighton 9:00 ET Golden Eagles (+) over Blue Jays- Marquette was short-handed when they fell 69-60 at UCLA Friday night as they had numerous players either out or hampered and used several line-ups had little practice time and committed 18 turnovers. Creighton just destroyed intra-state rival Nebraska using a 30-7 surge leading to a 98-74 victory while forcing 25 turnovers. The Bluejays had an incredible shooting night scoring on 10 straight possessions and hitting 17-of-24 during one stretch while the former 'Warriors' were 4-of-20 from 3-point range against the Bruins including 0-for-11 in the second half.

The unranked Tigers are 4-0 and are off to their best start in seven years. This should be an inside as the Illini have a strong middle with 7-0 Kofi Cockburn and 6-9 Giorgi Bezhanishnili while Mizzou will kill you with a trio of guards that average between 13.5 and 17.2 points apiece. Illinois has lost to Baylor and Missouri has defeated Oregon and Wichita State. Take the TIGERS! |

High Roller Minnesota at Nebraska 12:00 ET Cornhuskers (-) over Golden Gophers- Nebraska has been good to 'us' winning all three times 'we' had them including last week's 37-27 win at Purdue their second straight road cover. The Cornhuskers are a young them that is getting better and gaining momentum but this number having them favored by double-digits peaks my interest. They have been favored just one other time this season against Illinois (-17) and the4y failed miserably losing 41-23 outright. Minnesota is coming off a win of their own over Purdue 34-31 at home but that was three weeks ago as the virus has affected their schedule. The Golden Gophers won last year's meeting in Minneapolis 34-7 and now it's payback...take NEBRASKA! |

Marquette at UCLA 10:00 ET Bruins (-) over 'Once Warriors'- A pair of 4-1 clubs that last met in 1964 when both side were coached by legends of their day and Hall of Fame members UCLA's John Wooden and Marquette's AL McGuire. The 'Legend of Westwood' got his Nat'l Champion Bruins to best (61-52) of the brash New York rookie coach that day, McGuire later captured his NCAA Championship (1977 vs NC), but hey just wanted to say I remember that as Gail Goodrich got the best of Cazzie Russel of Michigan in the 91-80 Finals victory as the star and MVP Bill Bradly led Princeton to the finals. Okay, so what...well the Bruins also defeated Marquette in Dec. 1949 but I was only nine months old and don't remember it but I like the 71-year and two game streak to continue. Take UCLA! PS-I could have written up some scenario but the answer would have been the same...BRUINS! |

12-11-20 | Arizona State -11 v. Arizona | Top | 70-7 | Win | 100 | 20 h 31 m | Show |
Arizona State at Arizona 7:00 ET Sun Devils (-) over Wildcats- The best thing about the outcome of this game is that at least one major college football team in the state has a victory. Arizona State (0-2) has played both LA schools losing to USC 28-27 (Trojans scored twice in last minute after on-side kick) and to UCLA 25-18 at home last week. Last week Arizona jumped out to a 13-0 lead against Colorado and with six minutes to go in the second quarter the game was over for the Wildcats as the Buffaloes went 24-0 the rest of the way and were never threatened. This 'price' is way out of whack for a 'rivalry game' considering the Sun Devils haven't won a game yet...until tonight. Take ARIZONA STATE! |

Ohio State at Notre Dame 7:30 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Buckeyes- No. 23 Ohio State (3-0) has had the pleasure of beating up on three clubs at home where they were favored by a combined 71.5-points and they won all three by 71-points going 2-1 ATS. For Notre Dame it hasn't been so nice as they opened against No. 8 Michigan State and lost by 10 and then defeated Detroit-Mercy by eight and are 0-2. Both teams have four starters averaging double-digits with Prentiss Hubb of the Fighting Irish leading all scores with 23-ppg. Each club is dealing with injuries and the 'Shamrockers' are down to eight scholarship players. Buckeyes playing their first game on the road and against quality competition may well struggle here. You can only play with five at a time anyway...take NOTRE DAME! |

Buffalo vs San Francisco (at Glendale, AZ) 49ers over Bills- As most are aware this game has been shifted to Arizona as COVID has forced the move from California. Buffalo has won four of five with the lone loss coming on this field against the Cardinals when a 'Hail-Mary' pass handed them their only defeat. The Bills who were the same 8-3 a year ago went 2-3 their final five games while many have to be reminded that the 49ers were in the Super Bowl last season. SF is getting healthy as players return and the Bills face the undefeated (as of now) Steelers next week. That SAN FRANCISCO! |

But, the Pirates are 51-25 ATS in their last 76 games as road underdogs while Penn State is 1-7 ATS in their last eight games overall and 1-4 ATS in their last five home games and as favorites.

Cleveland at Tennessee 1:00 ET Browns (+) over Titans- Very sneaky...watch out for this one. I imagine most will see the Titans as very inviting side with their version of Jim Brown, Derek Henry running with authority over and through defensive backs. Both clubs are 8-3 but appear different in the public eye. This pair are 1 and 2 running the ball with the Browns at 161 rypg and the Titans 158 rypg with Cleveland's passing game lame at No.30 while Tannehill throws for just 227. Titans have turned the ball over just five times a league low but.. It's CLEVELAND! |

12-05-20 | Oregon v. California +9 | Top | 17-21 | Win | 100 | 20 h 35 m | Show |
Oregon at California 7:00 ET Golden Bears (+) over Beavers- Both clubs off losses to rivals and yet it probably hurts Oregon more than it does California. True that the Golden Bears (0-3) have yet to win but the Ducks loss surely knocks them and the Pac-12 out of any shot for the FBS. Ducks have won the last three and 10 of the last 11 meetings with the bears lone win at home in 2016. Hey, Herbert is gone and the Ducks spend more time on the ground where Bears have a chance to growl. Cal out-gained Stanford by a 150 yards on the ground while Oregon's putrid defense gives up 457 YPG, 30-points per and have only two forced turnovers while surrendering five. Take CALIFORNIA! |

Wisconsin at Marquette 7:00 ET Badgers (-) over Golden Eagles- Wisconsin (3-0) is a deep veteran team that was making a run when the season closed down last March winning their final eight and have started with three straight this season. Marquette (2-1) fell short against Oklahoma State Tuesday as they weren't able to crack the Cowboys zone shooting just 8-foe-31 in the second half. If they think OK St can play defense wait until they get a load of the Badgers. Both coaches preach defense first so this should a low scoring game with the Badgers controlling the tempo. Take WISCONSIN! |

Illinois vs Baylor 10:00 ET Illini (+) over Bears- Oh my...this is one to watch! No. 2 Baylor (2-0) is to meet No. 1 Gonzaga on Saturday in Indianapolis but must contend with No. 5 Illinois today and they are beasts on both ends of the floor. Baylor of course is averaging 99 points per game and the Illini counter with 98.7 ppg but the difference comes at the other end of the floor where the Bears allow 67 ppg Illinois defense is allowing 57.5 ppg. They also are No. 2 in the nation in rebounds with 50.7! Take ILLINOIS! |

11-30-20 | Seahawks v. Eagles +6.5 | Top | 23-17 | Win | 100 | 24 h 53 m | Show |
Seattle at Philadelphia 8:15 ET Eagles (+) over Seahawks- These two met at Philadelphia in the playoffs and Seattle posted a 17-9 victory their second of the season over Philly and by the same score 17-9. The Eagles had struggled most of the year and then closed with a flurry before the loss to end their season. In 2020 it has been even worse for them as Carson Wentz has been under duress the entire season having been sacked 40 times with 18 turnovers and a 73.3 passer rating. It's the same old story for the Seahawks plenty of offense with 400 yards per game, but their defense hasn't improved and is dead last allowing 435 yard per game. The head-to-head games are all Seattle as they are 6-0 ATS in the past six meetings including 5-0 ATS in Philadelphia. Both clubs are in second place with only the Eagles assured to move into first with a victory. Take the EAGLES! |

11-29-20 | Chiefs v. Bucs +3.5 | Top | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 20 h 49 m | Show |
Kansas City at Tampa Bay 4:25 ET Buccaneers (+) over Chiefs- Oh man is this it? Is this where we actually see the 'changing of the guard' as Patrick Mahomes brings his 9-1 Chiefs into Tampa Bay where quarterback Tom Brady is starting to show some wear and tear and Kansas City has the NFL's No. 2 offense averaging 414 yards per game while the Buc's defense has been consistent the past few seasons and is No. 6 over and No. 1 against the run for the second straight season. The Chiefs may not even be concerned withy that as they are the leagues No. 1 passing teams at 300 yards per games and Mahomes has 27 TD passes with just a pair of interceptions. Tampa Bay meanwhile has had two clunkers in their last three games as Brady's efficiency has dropped Matt Patricia sleepless. Kansas City garnered a bit revenge last week at las Vegas against the Raiders who had inflicted the their only loss in early October and they have won their last five since. There are a few things that have me backing Tampa here. To start with Tom Brady is a prideful man and I have to believe he will atone for his indiscretions in recent losses and the Buccaneers need to make a statement here otherwise they fall to 7-5 and into also-ran territory. Take TAMPA BAY! |

11-28-20 | Penn State +1 v. Michigan | Top | 27-17 | Win | 100 | 14 h 15 m | Show |
Penn State at Michigan 12:00 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Wolverines- I 'jumped the gun' last week with Penn State as they dropped to 0-5 straight-up (0-5 ATS) breaking a 135 year school trend of posting a win before their fifth game. Things are a little better for Michigan at 2-3 but their 1-4 ATS record has their 'backers' calling for Harbaugh's head. The fact that he has yet to beat Ohio State and has losses to weakling instate rival Michigan State, had to go overtime to defeat Rutgers who has ONE Big Ten win in 27 games and they had their 33-year win streak (1987) against Indiana end. For Penn State the 'numbers' are brutal and they are 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings and they are 5-20-2 ATS after a straight-up loss. Still, the Nittany Lions believe it or not have out-gained their five opponents by an average of 75 yards per game. Despite the records of these two the Lions are a better team and will get their much needed win. Take PENN STATE! |

Notre Dame at North Carolina 3:30 ET Tar Heels (+) over Fighting Irish- I finally came over and I'm convinced that Notre Dame is one of the best teams in the country and that they have finally reached the 'upper tier' of college football powers and here I go 'playing' against them. Not, to worry Irish fans it looks like the odds-makers are giving you room to win and 'not cover, otherwise I believe the Tar Heels have a great shot of winning this game outright. Under Mack Brown, North Carolina is 6-2 going 4-0 SU and ATS at home, they are No. 4 in Total Offense averaging 563 YPG and are ranked No. 10 at 43.1 PPG. It's a perfect storm for the Tar Heels...take NORTH CAROLINA! |

11-26-20 | Texans v. Lions +3 | Top | 41-25 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 60 m | Show |
Houston at Detroit 9:30 ET Lions (+) over Texans- Houston who until Sunday's victory of New England had two wins entering that contest but had only defeated Jacksonville (twice). The Texans have now won 2-of-3 after a 1-6 start but a defense built by Romeo Crennel is ranked 31 of 32 NFL teams allowing 412 yards a game. Detroit under Matt Patricia is heading south fast and I still have difficulty figuring out out they actually won four games this season. The Lions over-rated offense is ranked No. 27 and their defense is No. 25, numbers that are not very impressive. After getting shut out at Carolina last week where the Lions looked like they just stopped playing and gathered only 185 yards total offense while rushing for just 40 and allowing five sacks and making only 10 first downs. As bad as Detroit is, if they have any kind of professional pride they will come out smokin' on Thursday. Houston is just 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven road games and 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 as favorites while the Lions are even worse going 3-7 ATS Last-10 at home going 4-11 ATS in last 15 as underdogs and 6-15 ATS in their last 21 overall. All because they are poorly coached and they stink...but Texans have no character and the Lions eat well on Thanksgiving. Take DETROIT! |

Kansas City at L.V. Raiders 8:20 ET Raiders (+) over Chiefs- The NFL has called put nine Las Vegas players on the reserve/COVID list and they were not able meet or practice until Friday. Coach John Gruden says that they will 'be ready for the game on Sunday. Kansas City may have revenge on their minds as it was the Raiders that scarred their undefeated season a game where LV's defense played a strong second half. The storyline behind the Chiefs is Andy Reid's record after a bye week, he is 18-3 SU and KC is 12-5 ATS at Raiders last 17 meetings. But, Vegas well coached and 5-0 ATS vs the AFC West L-5. Take LAS VEGAS! |

New England at Houston 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Patriots- This is it, this is the one...if it is to win, I believe that business must done! New England despite all their problems still conduct themselves and play like professionals while the 'troubles' surrounding this Houston team goes deeper than we will ever realize. The Patriots rose up for us last Sunday taking down the Ravens outright and now take to the road facing a team in total turmoil that is 2-7 with a pair of wins over Jacksonville who has just one victory themselves. In days gone by I would have no difficulty using the Texans as a best bet...but not on top today. Pats should stumble and the Texans should take advantage...'And thine shall be done.' Take HOUSTON! |

Iowa at Penn State 3:30 ET Nittany Lions (+) over Hawkeyes- It has been 19 years since Penn State started a season 0-4 and they finished 5-6 that season winning five of their last seven. Not only are the Nittany Lions 0-4 SU they are also 0-4 ATS and the odd fact is that they out-gained all opponents except for Ohio State as penalties, missed field goals and turnovers a key moments have doomed their season. Penn State has won the last SIX meetings and are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games as underdogs and are 8-3 ATS after a straight-up loss. Iowa is 2-5 ATS after an ATS win and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games on grass and only 1-3-1 ATS in the last five conference games. Take PENN STATE! |

Purdue at Minnesota 7:30 ET Golden Gophers (+) over Boilermakers- No doubt Minnesota has been a major disappointment from their opening week loss to Michigan (Yeah, that Michigan!) and they were annihilated 35-7 by Iowa last week. Purdue (2-1) started with an upset win over Iowa and then beat Illinois before losing 27-20 to Northwestern last Saturday. Boilermakers had +2 yards rushing last week and have just 191 yards rushing total in three games this season. Being one-dimensional is rarely a successful formula on the field. Look for the Gophers to emerge from the hole that they have created and use their ground game to dig out a home victory. Take MINNESOTA! Collect here and roll it over to Chip's Big Ten Game of the Year on Saturday. |

Arizona at Seattle 8:20 ET Seahawks (-) over Cardinals- These two are in the middle of the 3-way log jam at the top of the NFC West with the Rams among the leaders. Four weeks ago the Cardinals came from 10 down with 6:44 left in the 4th quarter and scored three times to win in OT 37-34 and handed Seattle their first loss. They were 5-0 and Russell Wilson had been faultless but in the past four games he has committed 10 turnovers as the Seahawks have dropped 3-of-4. Arizona is coming off a miracle win over Buffalo and have impressive numbers as road underdogs going 8-1-2 ATS in their last 11 whereas the Hawks are 5-2 ATS as home favorites and 32-15-4 ATS after a straight up loss. The Cardinals have played well on the road so don't be surprised if they get the 'action.' Take SEATTLE! |

Seattle at L.A. Rams 4:05 ET Rams over Seahawks- Now, that we've broken the Russell Wilson curse we shall ride the wave and continue building our bankroll. Last week 'we' played Buffalo over the Seahawks and were rewarded as the porous Seattle defense was drilled giving up 44 points and finished with the No. 32 ranked 'D' which is allowing 456 yards per game (that's the average folks). Yet, they are 6-2 with a 1-game lead over the Rams in the West as LA licks their wounds from their loss at Miami with a bye week and will be ready for this division game. Although Seattle is 9-2 ATS in their last 11 as road dogs they are only 2-6 ATS in their last eight games at LA. Rams have ability to bounce back and are 8-1 ATSA following a loss and 16-5-1 ATS against the NFC to boot. Take L.A. RAMS! |

11-15-20 | Bills v. Cardinals -2.5 | Top | 30-32 | Loss | -105 | 18 h 6 m | Show |
Buffalo at Arizona 4:05 ET Cardinals over Bills- Buffalo at 7-2 leads the AFC East and is off a huge home win over Seattle 44-34 where Josh Allen out-passed Russell Wilson 386 to 362. Last week Arizona was playing hosts to Miami and although they out-gained the Dolphins by 150 yards they lost 34-31 as a 6-point favorite. The Bills are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six road games and the improving Cardinals are 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall. But, Allen is not the answer today, it's Kyler Murray who has passed for 16 TD's and ran for eight more. I noted how many yards the Seahawks threw for last week because Arizona has the No. 1 NFL offense averaging 422 yards per game. They will exploit the Bills defense which surrenders 365 YPG. Take ARIZONA! |

11-14-20 | Wisconsin v. Michigan +5 | Top | 49-11 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 27 m | Show |
Wisconsin at Michigan 7:30 ET Wolverines (+) over Badgers- Wisconsin opened the year with one of the most dominating performances of this cockeyed season destroying hapless Illinois 45-7. The Badgers held the Illini to just 218 total yards which is best in the nation with just one game played. Michigan of course has garnered plenty of attention having lost two straight after an opening win over Minnesota as they fell to rival Michigan State and last week to Indiana who they had defeated 22 straight times. The media is starting to pressure Wolves coach Jim Harbaugh as Michigan licks their wounds while Wisconsin has had to deal with COVID issues having games cancelled and being idle for three weeks. After playing an defeating an inferior opponent the Badgers get to pat themselves on the back and lose their competitive edge. The Wolverines are desperate for a win and I expect a huge effort here as the home team is 7-2-1 ATS in the past 10 meetings. Take MICHIGAN! |

Indianapolis at Tennessee 8:20 ET Colts (+) over Titans- Indianapolis had won five of six before bowing to Baltimore at home last Sunday although their offense produced 10 more first downs and 100 yards more in total. Tennessee meanwhile had their first solid effort in a month controlling the Bears until late in the game winning 24-17 despite making only 11 first downs. The Colts who are just 0-3-1 ATS in their last four games as underdogs have rebound powers as they are 5-0-1 ATS after double-digits loss at home and are 12-4-1 ATS when playing on Thursdays. Although the favorite is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings the Titans are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games as favorites and Indianapolis is 6-2 ATS in Tennessee and 13-4 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Take the COLTS! |

New Orleans at Tampa Bay 8:20 ET Buccaneers (-) over Saints- I can tell you right off that I am so NOT impressed with the Saints. I'm not sure exactly what it is but it might have something to do with their 2-5 ATS record. Both New Orleans and Tampa Bay are riding winning streaks with the Halo's having won their last four but failing to cover in their last three while the Buc's have won three straight including that fourth quarter comeback against the Giants. Tampa's defense is No. 1 against the rush allowing 70 yards a game while nNew Orleans is third at 91 yards per. Both QB's Brees and Brady have shown their ages at times but it appears Brady is still in charge. NO is 0-4 ATS against teams with winning records. Take TAMPA BAY! |

11-08-20 | Ravens v. Colts +1 | Top | 24-10 | Loss | -100 | 20 h 58 m | Show |
Baltimore at Indianapolis 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Ravens- I question that I have been asking about the Ravens is that have they finally been exposed for what they are. What they are is a team like the NY Yankees built for the Home Run Derby but not to win championships. It isn't an accident that the Ravens are 'Never-more' when up against top defenses. Although they out-gained the Steelers last week their quarterback play fail in the most important situations. When you lead the league in rushing and your leading rusher is your quarterback he becomes useless as a passer (31st in passing yards) when his run game is shorted. Get this the Colts are 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings and their defense is ranked No. 2 allowing just 293 yards per game. They are also 12-4 ATS against teams with winning records and win here. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |

Houston at Cincinnati 3:30 ET Cougars (+) over Bearcats- Cincinnati will hang their hats on their defense as they allowing 12 points per games ranked No. 7 in points allowed and 15th in total overall defense. There last two win came over SMU and Memphis last week dominating both clubs. The Bearcats have out-gained every opponent including the powder-puffs they played like Austin Peay, Army and South Florida. Houston meanwhile has had five games postponed or cancelled and opened the season trailing Tulane 24-0 at the half and came back to win. Since then, they have lost to BYU and Central Florida a pair of pretty good clubs and defeated Navy. There is just too much attention being paid to the Bearcats and with the ESPN and national attention coming an opponent always wants to make an impression. Note that the Cougars are 19-6-1 ATS in their last 26 games as road underdogs. Take HOUSTON! |

BYU at Boise State 9:45 ET Broncos (+) over Cougars- No. 7 BYU might have the best quarterback in the country in Zack Wilson and with all the attention going to Lawrence and others and this week he's up against at thorn in the Cougars side. You see, Boise is 6-0 SU lifetime when hosting this 'Border War' including a start by Wilson in 2018 a 21-16 SU loss but a winner ATS getting +11. This time the Cougars are the favorite but the result will be the same although they are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 road games. As far as the Broncos are concerned they play well at home 6-1 ATS last-7 and as underdogs going 7-1 last eight in that roll. I kinda thing that they might have the wrong team favored here. Take BOISE STATE! |

So entering this matchup I believe that I have a bead on both these clubs. I love the way this game sets up and believe the Rams at home have a decided advantage over the Cowboys although the visitor in is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. They are also 14-6 ATS in their last 20 as favorites while the Rams are 7-3 ATS after a SU loss and are 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games. Take COLORADO STATE! |

Chip's 'Guaranteed' NFL Vegas Hotline Winner Tennessee at Cincinnati 1:00 ET Bengals (+) over Titans- I can't say that the Titans were exposed in last weeks' 27-24 loss to Pittsburgh, but without a running game that couldn't muster half (82) their per game average of 169 and totaled just 292 yards. Cincinnati's has won just one game of seven and are a stellar 5-2 ATS but their problem is that they don't play very good defense allowing almost 400 yards and 28 points per game. Tennessee won four single possession games beating powers like the Jaguars by 3, Vikings by 1, Broncos by 2 and Texans in overtime, the bunch are a combined 5-21 SU. Bengals in playing tough and ready to surprise as rookie Joe Burrow had 406 yards passing last week with three touchdowns as the Bengals are poised to win. The Cats are 5-1 in their last six meetings and the Titans are 6-19 ATS in their last 25 road games against teams with losing records. Take CINCINNATI! |

North Carolina at Virginia 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Tar Heels- I know they are good, real good and although the Tar Heels are 4-1 SU 'we' are 5-0 ATS having had a side in each of their contests. (I have a bead on this club). On paper this looks like a route with North Carolina who is second to Clemson in the ACC and is No. 8 in the nation with 531 yards offense and have committed just one turnover. Struggling Virginia has lost four straight since an opening win over Duke and had to scrap and claw to get the 'cover' last week against Miami-Fl (Megabucks winner) and that's what they will do again here. The CavalIers defeated Sam Howell and the tar Heels last season 38-31 so they know what to expect. Take VIRGINIA! |

West Virginia meanwhile does their thing losing on the road (0-2) and winning at home (3-0) and this one's at home, but that isn't the key factor as to why you should take the Mountaineers and 'forget about it.' The 'Hillbillies' have out-gained each of their five opponents while the Wildcats can only claim one such advantage. K. State has as usual had the best of special teams play with 15 turnovers so far and five returns for TD's. West Virginia will counter with No. 6 defense allowing just 261 yards a game while KSU offense is ranked 70 they also grade out better on offense at 461 yards per. Take WEST VIRGINIA! |

Atlanta at Carolina 8:20 ET Falcons (+) over Panthers- You have got to 'love' the NFL decision makers moves as at time it defies logic. Three weeks ago Atlanta finally let coach Dan Quinn go as the Falcons had the league's worst rated defense and yet a top three offense. So, upon his dismissal the brass that make the most important decisions promotes Defensive coordinator Raheem Morris to head coach. Under his lead the 'Dirty Birds' win at Minnesota and blew a 6-point lead allowing Detroit to drive 75 yards with 1:04 remaining and the defense could not make a stop. Am I missing something here? Now, this week Carolina welcomes to return of All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey as they try to recover after last weeks tough loss at New Orleans. The Panthers won the first meeting 23-16 which sent Atlanta to 0-5 and Quinn was let go the next day. But as bad as it looks for the Falcons they do manage to play Carolina better than other clubs. Atlanta is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings which includes the earlier loss this season and they are 6-1 in their last seven games as road underdogs. Carolina has upgraded with their coaching bringing Matt Rhule in will help but of late the Panthers are 3-8 ATS in their last games as favorites including 2-5 ATS as home favorites. Take ATLANTA! |

Seattle at Arizona 8:20 ET Cardinals (+) over Seahawks- I love the spot, I love the matchup what I don't like is that I am sure that Arizona is going to be a 'heavy play' for the professionals. Also, as I have stated a number of times it is so hard to get bye Russell Wilson as we did last time out with Minny (+) 26-27. Seattle was off last week and brings their perfect 5-0 SU record and dead last rated defense into Phoenix. The Seahawks allow 471.2 yards per contest while Arizona's offense is ranked No. 5 with 403 yds per game. That being said Seattle is 13-4-1 ATS in their last 18 road games and 6-2-1 ATS as favorites. Cardinals 4-0-1 as dogs last five and the dogs is 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Take ARIZONA! |

Tampa Bay at Las Vegas 4:25 ET Raiders (+) over Buccaneers- I'm still trying to figure out who the Raiders are going to field on their offensive line as the entire crew was put on lockdown and were not allowed to practice this week. So, will Derek Carr get the protection he needs as Tampa Bay's No. 1 defense is second sacks with 22. Las Vegas although playing with some missing practice has had two weeks to prepare and John Gruden can hang with Bruce Arians and move the ball. Buccaneers could have a slight lull after taking down the Packers that way they did and traveling three times zones. Take LAS VEGAS! |

Green Bay at Houston 1:00 ET Texans (+) over Packers- With 1:48 left in the contest last Sunday the graphics posted stated that with Houston leading 36-29 and an extra-point try pending by the Texans that had a 98.6% chance of winning. But, remember Romeo Crennel whose last led KC to a 2-14 season in 2012 and is now the acting head coach and he was able to show 'us' those odds are not insurmountable. So, the Texans lose in overtime while Green Bay was getting pummeled by Tampa Bay 38-10 (Megabucks winner). Aaron Rogers had one of his career worst days (16-35, 160 Yd, 2 Int) but now faces the league's worst rushing defense. To start with the way the Packers respond after a loss bothers me as they are 10-1 ATS in their following game and although Texans are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games they are 11-5-1 ATS in their games following an ATS loss. Take HOUSTON! |

Virginia at Miami-Fl 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Hurricanes- It's difficult to keep in mind that Virginia played in the ACC championship game last season as they enter this contest having lost three straight games by 17+ points while having to use four different quarterbacks. The difference for Miami (4-1) this year is the QB maturity of D'Eriq King has helped settle their offense but their defense allows 396 yards. Virginia has actually out-gained their opponents but have been hampered by 12 turnovers and costly errors at key moments. Cavaliers are 13-5 ATS against teams with winning records while the Hurricanes are 4-1 ATS at home, but Cavs also 4-1 ATS last five at Miami and the underdog is 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings.

Texas coach Tom Harmon is under the gun as they say in Texas as the results of his hire have yet to measure up to expectations while first-year Baylor coach Dave Aranda is just hoping to have 11 starters on each side of the ball ready to go. The Bears have had three games postponed because of COVID contacts including 28 players and 14 coaches testing positive on Oct 3 and then 17 other players teated positive on Oct 12. Sunday, they got to practice for the first time since October 7th. I just don't see them as being ready for the Longhorns who have won the last five in the series, Take TEXAS! |

N.C.

N.C. State who is playing their fourth road game is 4-1 SU and 4-1 ATS and I haven't had much interest in any of their games until I saw this 'number' here. My first thoughts were, are the Wolfpack really this long an underdog (+15) against their 'biggest' rival' in a series where the underdog is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Add that the road team is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings. Maybe the broken leg of starting QB against Duke influenced the line but, Bailey Hockman returns to the job he lost after opening the season with two starts. Mack Brown has NC on the rise and the Heels coming off last week's beating and should return to form in kind take over on defense against an NC State team that has been out-gained in total yards in three of last four. Carolina won last year 41-10 after three straight losses to the Pack and they romp again! Take NORTH CAROLINA! |

Injuries have been plaguing the Eagles the last two seasons while New York just has very little talent and they have been hit with major injuries as well. Still, with a win here Philadelphia can ascend into first place and their confidence should be high as they have defeated the Giants seven straight times. 'Big Blue' is 3-3 ATS and has been competitive and are 17-5 ATS in their last 22 as road underdogs and they are 5-1 ATS against teams with losing records and that including last weeks ATS loss against DC. Philly not so good as they are 2-6 ATS in their last eight at home and 0-4 ATS as favorites. Add that the road team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.

Kansas City enters Bills Stadium with the No. 4 ranked offense averaging 29.8 ppg and Buffalo's offense is just behind them ranked No. 7 and second in passing yards 308 while the Chiefs throw for 288. It looked like this was going to be a match-up of un-beaten's but both were upset and out-played in losses last week with the Bills loss on Tuesday at Tennessee. KC's rush defense is 31st allowing 158 ypg while the Bills rushing game is no better than 27th at 94 rush ypg. Buffalo is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings and 5-2 ATS after a straight up loss.
