10-18-20 | Rams v. 49ers +3 | Top | 16-24 | Win | 100 | 26 h 45 m | Show |
L.A. Rams (4-1) at San Francisco (2-3) 8:20 ET That odor you smell in San Francisco is not the Bay, it emanates from the QB position occupied by Jimmy 'Crap'-pollo who has yet to play at the level expected of him since coming over from the Patriots. Niners have two wins beating the Jets and Giants (0-10) and it is unknown if they can beat anybody that isn't from New York. Injuries have played a part in SF's drop in status, but, if they can get ready for anyone it would be a favorite from Los Angeles. The Rams have played well losing once at Buffalo trailing 28-3 taking the lead and lose with 0:15 by a 3-yard TD pass. By the Numbers: LA is 10-3 ATS L-13 road games and 13-5-1 ATS as favorites. 49er's 5-1 ATS as dogs L-6 and 6-2 ATS versus teams with winning records. Under 10-2 L-12 when Rams favored and 12-3 Under L-15 on road vs. teams with losing hm records. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

10-18-20 | Packers v. Bucs +1.5 | Top | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 22 h 8 m | Show |
Green Bay at Tampa Bay 4:25 ET Buccaneers (+) over Packers- A quarterback matchup for the ages and I suggest you find a place to watch this one. It's been said that 43-year Tom Brady is a 'hare' slower and lacking the zip on the ball he once possessed and maybe so. No, such storyline with Aaron Rogers who leads the NFL's No. 2 offense in Total yards and No.1 in scoring. But, alas the Buccaneers own the No. 2 ranked defense and with the home cardboard cuts outs for support they will force the Packers to 'walk the plank.' We will 'learn' about more Tom Brady...if he remembers where he is, what quarter is it or what DOWN is it...it'll be fun! Take TAMPA BAY! |

10-17-20 | Texas A&M v. Mississippi State +5.5 | Top | 28-14 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 1 m | Show |
Texas A&M at Mississippi State 4:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Aggies- I LOVE this match-up after last weeks results and I can say I rate this one HIGHER than last weeks SEC Game of Month winner Texas A&M OUTRIGHT 41-38 over Florida. Now, we have the Aggies fresh off that upset win and must travel to Starkville to face an angry Bulldog team that has dropped their last two. Mississippi State started the season with a huge 44-34 win over LSU with K.J. Costello (transfer from Stanford) passing for an SEC record 623 yards and dropped their last two to Arkansas and Kentucky. The 24-2 loss to the Wildcats was a joke as the Bulldogs defense allowed just 158 total yards but SIX interceptions did them in. The Aggies are off their upset win over the Gators and battled Alabama the week before, there may not be much fuel let in the tank. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

10-16-20 | BYU v. Houston +5 | Top | 43-26 | Loss | -108 | 11 h 43 m | Show |
BYU at Houston 9:30 ET Cougars (+) over Cougars- HA! Not only is it confusing enough with both teams nicknames the Cougars but the site has been changed from Provo, Utah to Houston. Undefeated BYU (5-0) has had a soft schedule to this point while Houston had five games cancelled before their opener last week a come-back 49-31 win over Tulane after trailing 24-7 at the half. Houston committed five TO's (4 in 1st half) and with explosive talent made a number of 'big plays.' BYU's offense centers around QB Zach Wilson who has accounted for 14 TD's with one TO and 81.2% completions leading the offense to 557 yards a game. Although they were scheduled to play at home BYU is none-the-less 11-5 ATS on 'planned' road games...this one's different. Houston not to be taken lightly is 21-7-1 ATS as home underdogs. Take HOUSTON! |

10-13-20 | Bills v. Titans +3.5 | Top | 16-42 | Win | 100 | 17 h 43 m | Show |
Buffalo at Tennessee 7:00 ET Titans (+) over Bills- A pair of undefeated AFC clubs finally meet after COVID test requirements were met. Tennessee has had 23 players or staff test positive affecting their two top receivers Cory Davis and Adam Humphries. Buffalo off a 30-23 win against the Raiders in Las Vegas and is 4-0 with a 2-game division lead. The Titans are 0-3 ATS having won by a grand total of six points winning by 1, 2 and 3 points against the Jaguars, Broncos and Vikings a combined 2-10. The Bills have put it together of late and are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games as favorites and 8-2-2 ATS in their last 12 road games but just 1-3-1 ATS in their last five overall. The Titans versus AFC are 7-2-1 last 10 but just 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 home games and 0-4 ATS in their last four overall. The underdogs is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings. Take TENNESSEE! |

L.A. Lakers vs Miami 9:00 ET Lakers (-) over Heat- Yesterday, I didn't believe the Heat would lose again and win out in the series, but reality set in and although LA won the game Game 4 'we' did get the money. Now, we are in a position with Miami it is a chance to win and continue the series or keep it close so that we can get they money and they can go play golf or what ever they do in Miami during the off season. Take MIAMI! |

10-11-20 | Colts +1 v. Browns | Top | 23-32 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 35 m | Show |
Indianapolis at Cleveland 4:25 ET Colts over Browns- This game caught my eye immediately with the Colts being favored in Cleveland with the Browns after an opening week road loss are on a three-game winning streak and totally dominated the Cowboys in Dallas (Money Game winner) last Sunday. Indianapolis's defense is ranked No. 1 but what I hear is that they haven't faced anybody, just four NFL teams. The Browns offense has been spirited by its running game as Baker Mayfield had a 60.8 QB rating as they team scored 49 points,. It won't be the same this week because the Cowgirls defense stinks and Indy's doesn't. Take the COLTS! |

10-10-20 | Miami-FL v. Clemson -14.5 | Top | 17-42 | Win | 100 | 20 h 9 m | Show |
Miami-Fl at Clemson 7:30 ET Tigers (-) over Hurricanes- Doesn't Miami look inviting, I mean they are 3-0 both SU and ATS and have an exciting new offense lead by transfer E'Rick King. Clemson 3-0 SU is 0-3 ATS and just keeps plodding along and of course they understand that this is their first major challenge of the season. The Hurricanes are 2-0 in ACC action as are the Tigers who are 5-2 ATS in the last six meetings in including 18-8 ATS in their last 26 as home favorites. They have also won the last two meetings by a combined score of 96-3 (Yep, that's right)! Hurricanes get blown away...take CLEMSON! |

10-10-20 | Texas Tech +11.5 v. Iowa State | Top | 15-31 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 9 m | Show |
Texas Tech at Iowa State 3:00 ET Cyclones (-) over Red Raiders- This is the game that will tell us if Iowa State is for real as they come off an upset of Oklahoma and now are double digit favorites against Texas Tech after defeating the Sooners for the first time at home in Ames in 60 years and 20 straight games. Iowa State has the Big-12 leading rusher in Breece Hall and the winningest quarterback in Cyclone history in Brock Purdy who has a win over all Big-12 opponents. Just an opening week shocker when State lost to La Tech will keep the public away and the price is another factor but in may not matter as the Red Raiders are at the bottom of the conference food chain. Number is high and probably for good reason. Take IOWA STATE! |

10-10-20 | Florida v. Texas A&M +7 | Top | 38-41 | Win | 100 | 40 h 53 m | Show |
Florida at Texas A&M 12:00 ET Aggies (+) over Gators- Listen, I am a Gator fan all the way back to their Steve Spurrier days and I don't mean as a coach but when he was at quarterback. So understand, when I play against them that I have plenty of confidence and this one is really 'special'...special enough that I have used it as my SEC Game of the Month! To tell the truth I will be 'shocked' if A&M doesn't win this game on the field. The Gators will certainly be looking ahead to next week when they play LSU. The Aggies found out what it's like to be up against the 'Big Boys' (Alabama last week) and will last longer ready to win this game 'outright' and much less 'cover. If TEXAS A&M doesn't get the money here I will be honestly be shocked! Take the AGGIES! |

10-08-20 | Bucs v. Bears +4 | Top | 19-20 | Win | 100 | 24 h 58 m | Show |
Tampa Bay at Chicago 8:20 ET Bears (+) over Buccaneers- Tampa Bay is brimming with confidence as well they should be after their come from behind victory over the Chargers storming back behind five Tom Brady TD passes. Brady has attained 'God-like' status among guys that have only known losing...Bucs are 3-1 after an opening week loss and are No. 8 in scoring offense at 30.0 points per and their defense is just about the middle of the Pack at No. 16. The Bears play a stout defense that is ranked No. 8 and their offense should get a boost with Nick Foles being named starter. To a man the Bears have known Foles should be the starter as Chicago finally admits failure in their Trubinsky 'project.' The Bears are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 as home dogs and the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings Take CHICAGO! |

10-06-20 | Lakers v. Heat +7.5 | Top | 102-96 | Win | 100 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
L.A. Lakers vs Miami 9:00 ET Heat (+) over Lakers- I could not have more off-base than what I predicted in Game 3 as Miami showed their grit and took it to the Lakers from start to finish winning 115-104. The Heat are brimming with confidence as Jimmy Butler's 'triple-double' wasn't enough of a statement until he boasts 'we won't lose again!' Los Angeles may have something to say about that as they have yet to lose back-to-back games and that may be so but they are 2-8-1 ATS after an ATS loss. Now, like when I hear a pitcher or quarterback say 'it's just another game' when it is more than just another game. The last to say it was Lamar Jackson before the Ravens against Kansas City on Monday night and he got smoked as they always do. In the same vein James says after his eight turnover performance, 'We're not concerned'....he should be! Miami is 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games overall. Enough for me! Take the HEAT! |

10-05-20 | Falcons +7 v. Packers | Top | 16-30 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 17 m | Show |
Atlanta at Green Bay 5:15 ET Falcons (+) over Packers- Why is Dan Quinn still coaching the Atlanta Falcons? Is it because he once got this team to the Super Bowl or does he have Jeffery Epstein type of video of the Falcons brass? It has to be something we are not aware of because since he blew a 28-3 second half lead to the Patriots in the Super Bowl his teams continue to fail with basic fundamentals. I'm wondering what Atlanta who rank 31st of 32 teams on defense can do to stop Aaron Rogers who's offense is ranked No. 2. In order to support the Falcons I have found some trends that might help. How about this Atlanta is 5-1 ATS in their six meetings at Green Bay and they road team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings plus they are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games. If you want to hear something about the Packers, well they bare 5-1 ATS in their last six as home favorites...Good luck. Take ATLANTA! |

Miami vs L.A. Lakers 9:00 ET Lakers (-) over Heat- Okay Miami has given it the 'old college try'...but will fall short and the Lake Show is just beginning. With all the injuries growing The Heat have cooled off and LA is primed to sweep the series. Lebron as I said before is on a mission and will not be denied and along with Anthony Davis who has never been a winner in the pro ranks and came to LA for this sole purpose. I could go on with all kinds of numbers both good and bad on either side but it's just a matter of the Lakers finishing business. Take LOS ANGELES LAKERS! |

10-04-20 | Seahawks v. Dolphins +6 | Top | 31-23 | Loss | -115 | 17 h 16 m | Show |
Seattle at Miami 1:00 ET Dolphins (+) over Seahawks- I don't mean to laugh because so many of those I know took the Cowboys last week against Seattle and were burned once again by late heroics by Russell Wilson who threw five more TD's giving him 14 in just three games. Now, Wilson travels East to play in Miami and he breaks that west to east crap as he is 8-0 SU and ATS in the ET zone. Now, that's been great for the Seahawks but their defense has allowed 1,292 yards passing more than any other team in the NFL. Miami meanwhile posted their first double-digit win in 39 games defeating Jacksonville 31-13 on last Thursday night, that gives the Dolphins four extra days and they will be healthy. Like I said before and the reason I stayed away from taking Dallas last week is that it is so hard getting past Russell Wilson as they are 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 road games and 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven as favorites. But, Seattle is only 1-6 ATS in the last seven meetings against the Dolphins and the Dolphins are 5-1 ATS in their last six home games and 4-1 ATS in their last five as dogs. Take MIAMI! |

10-03-20 | Auburn v. Georgia -7 | Top | 6-27 | Win | 100 | 20 h 11 m | Show |
Auburn at Georgia 7:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Tigers- Love the match-up and believe this is my strongest release of the college football season. It's being said that Georgia's quarterback position is not settled while Auburn is fixed with Bo Nix last year's SEC Freshman of the Year. (He's Over-rated!) The Bulldogs who are known for their ground game totaled just 121 yards at 2.9 per attempt but held Arkansas to 280 total yards in their (-27.5) 37-10 win. Georgia has won the last six meetings 6-0 SU and 6-0 ATS at home and are 13-3 ATS after a ATS loss and they are 17-8 ATS against teams with winning records. The Tigers may be 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games overall but one of those losses was to the Bulldogs last season and finally the favorite is 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Take GEORGIA! |

Miami vs L.A. Lakers 9:00 ET Lakers (-) over Heat- The Heat won their last NBA Championship in 2013, their second of back-to-back titles over San Antonio and were led of course by LeBron James and I must give him props returning to the Finals once again. Miami like Los Angeles has won 12 of 15 playoff games and will have to measure up to the bigger Lakers inside by being more physical. L.A. has scored 44-points per game in the paint shooting 71% both leagues highs by wide margins. The Heat will need for their outside shooters to be on the mark to compete and they will use a 2-3 to stack the paint but, it won''t matter as LeBron is still muttering about the 'disrespectful' MVP vote. Take the LAKERS! |

Kansas City at Baltimore 8:15 ET Ravens (-) over Chiefs- The two best AFC clubs clash on this Monday night and the quarterback matchup is intriguing with Pat Mahomes arm and Lamar Jackson's legs. Baltimore who has lost the last two meetings by a total of eight points including a 33-28 win in Week 3 last season is 9-1 ATS in their last 10 versus the AFC. Kansas City as Super Bowl Champs has so trend support as well going 9-1-1 ATS as road underdogs and 12-5-1 ATS in their last 18 road games overall. The Ravens have the NFL's best five takeaways in two games against the Browns and Texans and have won 14 consecutive regular season games. In what should be a good one the edge here goes to the home team with revenge. Take BALTIMORE! |

Miami vs Boston 7:30 ET Celtics (-) over Heat- The Celtics have managed to survive their own attitude and now are two wins away from the NBA Finals. Boston had to make some adjustments as Miami came out determined in this series pushing the Celts to the brink of elimination. But, Boston survived and now have the psychological edge, as they have regained their confidence and are 24-9 ATS as playoff favorites. The Heat have been tough but are just 5-11 ATS versus Boston. Take the4 CELTICS! |

09-27-20 | Titans v. Vikings +3 | Top | 31-30 | Win | 100 | 19 h 2 m | Show |
Tennessee at Minnesota 1:00 ET Vikings (-) over Titans- 'How do you like me now' is struggling a bit and the 0-2 Vikings as Kirk Cousins QB rating sits at 15.9 as he has been sacked for a safety in each of this seasons games. Tennessee (2-0) is rolling behind Ryan Tannehill who had four TD passes and zero interceptions in last weeks 33-30 win over Jacksonville. But, the Titans don't seem to get 'up' teams with losing records as they are 7-18-1 ATS on the road against teams below .500. Minnesota on the flip side is 17-5-1 ATS as a home underdog and are 37-17-1 ATS in their last 55 home games. Take MINNESOTA! |

Setting up a situation where I can't help but be on the Texans (0-2) and Bill O'Brien last meeting 34-6 Christmas Day 3-years ago Pittsburgh is 8th in defensive yards allowed but have been up against a pair of pushovers in the Giants and Broncos. Houston is ranked 22nd on offense but have been up against the AFC's best in Kansas City ands Baltimore. Texans 8-1 ATS after a double-digit home loss. And 10-3-1 ATS after an ATS loss. Pittsburgh 2-6 ATS as home favorites but 4-1 ATS in last five meetings. Still, it is HOUSTON! |

Army at Cincinnati 3:30 ET Bearcats (-) over Black Knights- Both of these clubs are ranked in the Top-25 but they have come from different directions. The Army ranked No. 22 was 5-8 last season and are 2-0 after beating powerhouses Middle Tennessee State and Louisiana-Monroe outscoring them 79-7. No. 16 Cincinnati is off of a pair of 11-win seasons and return 16 starters. The true reason the Cadets received a Top-25 ranking is because of a number of other conferences that haven't played yet. The Knights are 0-20 against ranked opponents. Army is 1-4 in their last five road games and 1-5 ATS against a team with a winning record. Bearcats 6-2 ATS in last eight home games.

After taking a 2-0 lead over Denver when it looked as though the Nuggets couldn't handle the 'Lakesters' big two of Lebron James and Anthony Davis. But, this 'Mile-High City' club just doesn't quit and we have seen that as the recovered from 3-1 deficits against both Utah and the Clippers. LA has struggled withy Denver during the regular season going just 10-21 ATS in the last 31 meetings, but that is regular season action. Denver is 5-1 ATS in the Playoffs as an underdog. Still, one sure thing about these NBA Playoffs just when you think a team is 'done' they will bounce back. It doesn't look like the Lakers could cover a pot with a lid but of course this pot has gold in it. Take LOS ANGELES! |

Miami at Jacksonville 8:20 ET Dolphins (+) over Jaguars- Quarterbacks Ryan Fitzpatrick of Miami and Gardner Minshew of Jacksonville are having a verbal sparing match about their respective beards and mustaches. All in good fun they say but the fun ends Thursday night as the Jaguars are a same favorite. Before the season began Jacksonville was considered one of the worst teams in the NFL and after a pair of games they are being touted by the same people that said 'they stink' two weeks ago. Miami is 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games overall and 7-2 ATS after a straight-up loss. The Jaguars are 4-1 ATS in their last five but just 2-6 ATS as favorites including 1-4 ATS as hosts when favored. Take MIAMI! |

Boston and Miami 8:30 ET Heat (+) over Celtics- Okay, Miami is up 2-1 in games but the stats between the clubs are virtually dead even from points, to rebounds to assists and free throws. Then what will be the difference maker today...it's Jimmy Butler! Teams this deep in the playoffs should have positive trends and they both do. Boston is 23-8-1 ATS in their last 32 playoffs games although they are just 1-4 ATS in their last five in the Conference Finals. Miami is 10-2 ATS in the playoffs including their loss on Saturday and the Heat are an amazing 24-8-2 (75%) after a straight-up loss. Defense is the key as the Heat play it better. Take MIAMI! |

Trailing 3-1 in the past two series against the Jazz and Clippers the Nuggets managed to overcome to odds and win both series to face the Lakers in the Western Finals. The Lakers as a franchise have not lost a playoff series in which they lede 2-0 since 1969 when the lost to the Celtics. LA was up double figures in the fourth but needed a buzzer beater bye Anthony Davis to get by. This time they will not need the dramatics...Take LOS ANGELES! |

The new $2 billion Allegiant Stadium was to be rocking! Now, the Saints who come from a 'party' city of their own and pleased they won't have to deal with 70,000 crazed Raiders fans.

Gosh, I hate Jim O'Brien, no nothing to do with him personally I just mean his coaching and judgement during a game. Houston was pounded once again by Kansas City in their opener and now return home with a scatter arm Deshaun Watson at quarterback and little receiving talent. Baltimore...ah wins 38-6 over the Browns as Lamar Jackson threw for three TD's going 20 of 25 while rushing for 79 yards. The last time these two met in November 2019 the ravens crushed 41-7 as Watson was sacked six times passing for only 169 yards.

The Cardinals should have revenge on their minds after getting destroyed 55-27 in Miami last season. The hurricanes were only 7-7 last season and torched the Louisville defense for six TD passes. Yet, Miami wasn't that good last year and have transfer D'Eriq King from Houston and his quick feet and passing remind many of Kyler Murray now with Arizona Cardinals.

Cincinnati at Cleveland 8:20 ET Browns (-) over Bengals- I can hear it now 'Don't do it...they stink, they are are clown show.' Yep all that is true (especially if you are thinking Odell BeckHAM)! Last season the Browns were the media's and public's dark horse choice and the failed miserably. After Sundays' 38-6 beating by Baltimore I believe many have 'supporters' already jumped ship in 2020. Cincinnati should have make winner of Joe Burrow but his teammates we must understand are losers and committing a penalty on what would have been a winning play and then missing the tying field goal on consecutive plays as that is what losers do. Now for Cleveland, think about the opening line in this game, it was -8. So, it's bet done to -6 and still might go lower because no one wants any part of the Browns. But, the point I want to make is Cleveland is favored my more points this week than they score in the entire game last week against the Ravens. Don't that make you question...why? Take CLEVELAND! |

Yep, well Denver was only thinking about surviving.

Clippers vs Denver 1:00 ET Clippers (-) over Nuggets- Los Angeles was having so much fun and then they looked at the scoreboard and saw that they had a 15-point lead and they started thinking about the Lakers. Yep, well Denver was only thinking about surviving. After that the Nuggets played 'desperation ball' and found gold and out-scored the shocked Clippers by 21-points for the 111-105 win. But, this Los Angeles team has never won anything and knows that they still have to prove themselves and will taking nothing for granted this time around and add the Clippers are 21-6 ATS following a straight-up loss. Take L.A. CLIPPERS! |

New York Jets at Buffalo 1:00 ET Jets (+) over Bills- Last season when there was a pre-season the Cleveland were the 'hot' item and they went out and laid an egg, well this year's Browns are the Buffalo Bills. Talk is how it's the Bills time to take over the AL East with Tom Brady gone and the Jets and Dolphins being who they are. New York has their eggs in the Sam Darnold and Le'Veon Bell basket who are both looking to bounce back from disappointing seasons. Jets were 7-9 (not that bad) last year and although just 7-17-1 ATS as road underdogs the dog is 8-2 ATS in this series. Josh Allen has yet to fulfill expectations and the pressure is increasing every day. Take the J-E-T-S! |

Western Kentucky at Louisville 8:00 ET Hilltoppers (+) over Cardinals- Last season two 'new' head coaches took over struggling programs and show the most improvement and biggest turnaround in the entire NCAA. Western Kentucky under first year coach Tyson Helton brought his club from 3-9 in 2018 to 9-4 and a bowl win in 2019. At Louisville after Lamar Jackson left the Cardinals dropped to 2-10 and rebound under Scott Satterfield to 8-5 both clubs improved by six wins. Last season the Cardinal went to Nashville as a 11-point favorite and now at home after winning on the road 38-21 they come up the same number. I believe the oddsmaker is telling 'us' W. Ky has a shot. They are 6-0-1 ATS in the last seven road games and 36-16 in their last 52 as underdogs. Louisville is 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games but just 4-9 ATS as home favorites. Take the HILLTOPPERS! |

L.A. Lakers vs Houston 8:30 ET Rockets (+) over Lakers- Well, when I hear a team has 'no shot' and everyone has counted them out and are starting to look toward the next matchup funny things can happen. James Harden has been his usually playoff self which is so sub-par (just 2 field goals in Game 4). Houston hasn't changed much in recent seasons they will try and out-run you and out gun you and when they are 'on' they are tough to beat. The problems with shooting teams is the streaks they incur. Really no pressure here on Rockets most thinking they are already dead...Take HOUSTON! |

Boston vs Toronto 9:00 ET Raptors (+) over Celtics- The well balanced Boston Celtics in the back of their minds have to be thinking 'what if' that miracle shot that won Game 3 fell short. Instead of a commanding 3-0 lead the Celtics now find themselves 3-3 and in a do-or-die game. Kemba Walker had one of his worst nights of the season and still it took Toronto two overtimes to defeat Boston to tie the series. Karma is a bitch...take CLIPPERS! |

L.A. Lakers vs Houston 8:30 ET Rockets (+) over Lakers- When looking at this series I get the feeling that the :Lakers are blowing Houston out, but that's not the case as the series is just 2-1 LA and today is Game 4. Houston hasn't changed much in recent seasons they will try and out-run you and out gun you and when they are on they are tough to beat. The problems with shooting teams is the streaks they incur. All that goes by the wayside while Rockets play the Lakers as they dominated L.A. in recent years and are 17-10 ATS in the last 27 meetings and the Lakers are 6-10 ATS as favorites and just 6-11 ATS in their last 17 games overall.

Both these clubs have been great all season long and trends say that both of these clubs are worthy of a wager. Even with Serge Ibaka in a walking boot the Raptors will be all in. So take TORONTO! |

B.Y.U. at Navy 8:00 ET Midshipman (+) over Cougars- As always there are a number of ways to approach any game as there is here. BYU has one of the more prolific NCAA passers in Zach Wilson who has thrown for 3,960 yards in two seasons the second of which he missed significant time due to injury. Navy of course is a ground game school (go figure) and led the nation with 360 yards per game in 2019 but now they will be without Malcom Perry who ran for 2017 yards of an overall 3,700 team yards rushing. It won't matter and I'll tell you why after I slip this in. Navy is 7-1 ATS in their last eight at home and 13-3-1 ATS in their last 16 overall and add that the Cougars are 0-7 ATS in their last seven as favorites, but those are not the sole reason 'we' should have the Middies. You know, during the COVID time and even without it the Navy does not take days off. They are together all year long, this is a job, it is their service and they are in sync and have an early season advantage over the others. And by the way, if the line moves Navy is 20-8 ATS at home as favorites..Take NAVY! |

How's that sound...we have seen it happen. I could support my instincts with more fodder and stats but they won't matter in the 'Bubble'. So take TORONTO! |

All that goes by the wayside while Rockets play the Lakers as they dominated L.A. in recent years and are 17-8 ATS in the last 25 meetings. Houston is 5-1 ATS in their last six as underdogs and the Lakers are 4-10 ATS as favorites and just 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games overall. Take HOUSTON! |

Milwaukee vs Miami 6:30 ET Bucks (-) over Heat- Having had the Heat in both Games 1 & 2 I feel comfortable switching sides in Game 3. Playing against Miami might not be the wisest though I've had as they are 6-0 both ATS and straight-up in the playoffs and have won 10 of 11 overall in the playoffs and are 6-1 over the Bucks in the last seven meetings. Okay, that's all well and good but the way Milwaukee closed last years playoffs blowing a 2-0 games lead over Toronto and having the media whisper that maybe, just maybe Giannis Antetokounmpo isn't a 'big game' player. Well, Milwaukee finished with the best recored in the NBA and it's time for them to measure up against the Heat. Take the BUCKS! |

Now, it is Boston that is streaking having won six straight and 10 of 11 and are 21-8 ATS as underdogs.

The Thunder are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings and are 35-17 ATS in their last 52 games as underdogs. Houston on the flip side is just 2-5 ATS as favorites and 3-8 ATS following a straight-up loss.

These two had closed the regular season meetings with the Thunder having a five-game win and cover streak. This game should play toward the 'number' as Houston is just 2-5 ATS in their last s even games after scoring 100 the previous game while the Thunder is 11-3 ATS in their last 14 game following a straight-up loss of more than 10 points.

Utah now has a 3-2 series lead but are still 2-6 ATS in the last eight meetings. The Jazz who have come alive are just 4-17-2 ATS in their last 23 games as favorites while the Nuggets are not any better as they are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games after an ATS win.

Boston swept Philadelphia 4-0 but not necessarily in such dominating fashion. I rarely have problems thing about playing 'against' any team that scores 150 points in a night. The competition near is much tougher and better seasoned than the Nets. The Celtics are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings and are 15-5 ATS as underdogs. Toronto is still NBA Champs and they are 6-2 ATS in right playoff games as the favorite. But today...it's BOSTON! Thank you and Good Luck! |

Houston vs Oklahoma City 6:30 ET Thunder (+) over Rockets- As I said last time out the Rockets hot shooting would taper off and it did in Game 4. The question here is has Houston recovered enough after having fallen off with their 3-point shooting. OKC had won five straight in the series until these playoffs and it seems Houston has been saving it all up for this but the Thunder responded with a win in Games 3 & 4 and have evened the series. As I said before this game will show which club has more character. I don't believe that simply changing uniforms without the benefit of a home crown cheering for you makes much difference although the listed home team has won all four. Ha! The Thunder were one of the league's biggest surprises this season and had the best ATS record in the NBA and with desperate times at hand they will respond. Take OKLAHOMA CITY! |

But, this is the playoffs and the Lakers got their 'wakeup' call in Game 1 which was their sixth straight ATS loss to the Blazers. Lillard is hurting and LA gets serious. Take the LAKERS! |

Joel Embiid is a one man gang but that hasn't been enough as they have dropped the first two scoring 101 points in both losses. The Sixers bench has not picked up the slack left since Ben Simmons went down but I expect more from them in Game 3. Philly is 5-1 ATS after a loss of 10-points or more. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

OKC has been under-rated all season and is 41-20 ATS in their last 61 games as underdogs and 10-2 ATS following a loss of 10 points.

That was Boston's second win in five tries against Philadelphia who will once again be without Ben Simmons while the Celts lost the services of Gordon Hayward who went down with a bad ankle sprain.

Portland vs L.A. Lakers 9:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Lakers- While Portland was scratching and clawing for their play-in opportunity the Lakers guaranteed the No 1 seed in the West played uninspired ball with numerous players 'resting' as they lost four of their final five. The Trailblazers have had an emotional run during the restart that will drain their energy. They don't have a glorious playoff record as they are 4-9-1 ATS as a playoff underdog and just 10-26-2 ATS in 38 Conference Quarterfinal games. But, Portland does come to play when the Lakers are their opponent as they are 46-22 ATS in the last 68 meetings overall and that a good size sample. The Los Angeles 'numbers' are all negative as they are 0-5 ATS in their last five overall and 6-13 ATS in their last 19 after a 10-point loss. Playing possum...we will see. Take the LAKERS! If this message is garbled play is LAKERS! |

Philadelphia vs Boston 3:30 ET Celtics 76ers – The way these two came into this game may be the telling a tale one way or another. Philadelphia was 4-4 during the restart losing three straight before closing by crushing Houston a club missing all their firepower. The Sixers of course will be without Ben Simmons but that just gives Joel Embiid more room to roam. Boston was 5-3 in Orlando and totally laid down in their final game getting beat by the winless (0-7) Wizards. That scares me is I believe the Celtics will be ready to play and I have doubts about the Sixers after routing the Rockets on the final day as they are 0-6 following a win of 10-points or greater. But, Philly is 4-1 ATS as playoff underdogs but are just 5-12 ATS in the last 17 meetings with Boston. The Celtics are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 Conference Quarterfinal games. Tough call but the public sentiment and money is on the Celtics. In a surprise. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Memphis vs Portland 2:30 ET Grizzlies (+) over Trailblazers- Portland has gone 6-2 in Florida while the Grizzlies lost their first four and then split the final four so they were 2-6 SU. This is a curious playoff situation as the Trailblazers only have two win one of a possible pair of games while Memphis must win both game to advance. It would be the other way around as these two met in the opening of the restart and Memphis blew a huge lead and lost in OT 140-135 otherwise the Blazers would be the one needing to win twice. Portland is 6-13-1 vARTS when playing a sub-500 team and like an old friend once said to me I can win twice and lose only once if I play the team facing elimination. Take MEMPHIS! Thank you and Good Luck! |

What they should realize is that Philadelphia plays better when either Simmons or Joel Embiid are out. The floor just may not be big enough for both of them to be on it at the same time. Portland's loss to the Clippers yesterday leaves them a half-game ahead of San Antonio and Phoenix for the final play-in berth. The Blazers are 5-11-1 ATS when playing on one days rest.

LA Lakers at LA Clippers 3:30 ET Lakers (+) over Clippers- The Clippers are six game behind the Lakers in the loss column but have defeated this intra-city rivals twice this season with this being the third meeting. The Clippers now have a healthy squad and are 10-0 when at full strength and have averaged a 17-point victory margin in their past six games. The Lakers are off of a 113-103 win over Milwaukee when James just took over the floor and I expect much of the same today. Take the LAKERS! |

Michigan at Maryland 12:00 ET Wolverines (+) over Terrapins- This will be the third opportunity for Maryland to clinch a share of the Big Ten regular season championship coming off of a loss to Rutgers on Tuesday 78-67. Is it conference pressure that has the Terrapins o their heels and now they must defeat a Michigan team that they haven't beaten in three years going 0-3 ATS. The Wolverines need this much more than Maryland and can insure a better than .500 conference record with a win here. The road team is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take MICHIGAN! |

Utah at Boston 7:00 ET Jazz (+) over Celtics- Just when it looks like the Celtics were putting it together for the stretch run they have incurred a rash of injuries that will keep Gordon Hayward and Jaylen Brown out of the lineup and Kemba Walker is still ailing. Utah enters this game on a 3-game winning streak with their last loss at home against the Celtics 114-103 and are 5-0 ATS as road underdogs. Boston is 7-2 ATS in their last nine home games but this 'number' tells me that will struggle here. Take UTAH! |

Houston at Connecticut 7:00 ET Huskies (+) over Cougars- It hasn't been the best of season's for Connecticut but they have improved steadily as the year progressed. Houston began the week on top of the ACC but now take to the road where they are just 6-5 Su and 4-7 ATS and are 0-5 ATS as road favorites and 0-5 ATS after an ATS win. The Huskies are 13-3 SU at home including 5-1-1 ATS as a home dog and the underdog is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take CONNECTICUT! |

Virginia at Miami-Fl 9:00 ET Hurricanes (+) over Hokies- The defending National Champions started the season slowing as if with a hangover from their run through the NCAA Big Dance last year and getting ready to do it against with six straight wins. Miami has dropped two straight both on the road and is danger of having back-to-back losing season's which hasn't happen to a Jim Larranaga club since 1993. Surprisingly enough the Cavaliers trail the lifetime series 12-11 and are 2-7 straight-up in Miami and just 5-14 -1 ATS in their last 20 games as a favorite. Take the HURRICANES! |

Boston at Cleveland 7:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Celtics- Boston has dropped their last two contests and they had huge second half leads in both losses to Houston and Brooklyn last night. The Celtics have won the past three meeting this season by an average of 13.3 points but are just 1-3-1 ATS in Cleveland. There is something way 'wrong' with this 'number' as the Cavaliers will be without center Andre Drummond, guard Daruis Garland and a questionable Tristian Thompson and yet the Celtics price is the lowest between these two clubs I the last 10 meetings. Tale CLEVELAND! |

Purdue at Iowa 9:00 ET Boilermakers (+) over Hawkeyes- Here we go again with the Boilermakers, I have been involved with and against this 15-14 club all season with decent success. Although they let me down against Michigan they provided the wining margin against Wisconsin, Indiana and a huge 104-68 win over these same Hawkeyes. Tonight is Senior night in Iowa and they have ben promising revenge on Purdue, buy, ya know it just doesn't happen because you say it will. Senior night is not a good night for the home team as there are countless distracts and melancholy memories. Purdue has won the last three meetings by an average 25 points and sweep the series.

The Thunder were pasted last time out 133-86 by Milwaukee but have had four days to regroup and have a huge positive trend after losing by 10-points or more going 8-0 SU and ATS in their following eight games. These two have split a pair of games with each home team holding serve. OKC is 10-4 ATS as a home underdog in their last 14 while the Clippers are 1-6 ATS in their last seven trips tp Oklahoma City.

Boston has won 14 of 17 and has already seen this 'small ball' play from the Rockets, but will it help. The oddsmaker doesn't believe so, look at this line. The Celtics return home after winning five straight with the last four coming on the road going 5-0 ATS. Houston is 8-2 ATS on the road against team with winning records and are 6-2 ATS as road underdogs. Take the ROCKETS! |

The Seminoles have a half-game lead over Louisville trying to win their last first ACC title. Clemson at 14-13 is two years removed from a Sweet-16 appearance and just had a 3-game winning streak stopped on Tuesday by Megabucks winner Georgia Tech. With a 'double-bye' already assured for the ACC Tournament the Seminoles may come out flat here. Take CLEMSON! |

Washington State at Washington 9:00 ET Huskies (-) over Cougars- Okay, here we have the Pac-12 cellar dweller Washington opening a 10-point favorite against their arch rival Washington State. The Huskies just ended a nine-game losing streak with a 25-point 87-52 win over California and get to play their in-state competition who they have dominated through the years. Washington has won seven of the last 10 meetings at home and lead the all-time series 185-105.

Indiana at Purdue 7:00 ET Boilermakers (-) over Hoosiers- Now, this makes no sense to me at all. Here is Purdue having lost their last four their longest losing streak in six years a heavy favorite over Indiana who has won their last two and have five wins over nationally ranked teams. But, there are a few trends that explain this 'number.' To start with the Hoosiers are 2-6 ATS in their last eight road games including 1-5 ATS as road underdogs, while Purdue is 17-8-1 ATS in their last 26 games as home favorite. I can add that Indiana is 3-7 ATS after a straight-up win and the home team is 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take PURDUE! |

Maryland at Minnesota 9:00 ET Golden Gophers (+) over Terrapins- Maryland has a two-game lead in the Big Ten despite losing to Ohio State on Sunday ending their nine game win streak. Minnesota who had dropped five of their previous games came alive with a 83-57 rout of Northwestern Sunday. The Terrapins have won and covered the last three meetings and yet this 'price' is low. Maybe the reason is that Maryland will be ESPN's focal point Saturday as they host Michigan State. For whatever reason this line is way too low. Something's up? Take MINNESOTA! |

Boston at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Celtics- Sometimes as they say 'less is more' as the supporting cast is performing at a higher level with All-Star Damian Lillard sidelined with a groin injury. Even Carmelo Anthony is beginning to look like a real NBA player as he scored a season's best 32 points last time out and CJ McCollum put up a season-high 41 points. On the other side of the coin the Celtics young phenom Jayson Tatum matched his career high of 41 points against the Lakers Sunday picking up the slack left with Kemba Walker's absence. Boston had won 12 of 14 before falling to LA and are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games overall. The Celtics are 13-5 ATS in their last 18 meetings in Portland but, the Blazers who are playing better of late are 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games. Take the TRAILBLAZERS! |

T.C.U. at Iowa State 7:00 ET Horned Frogs (+) over Cyclones- Both of these Big-12 clubs are having disappointing seasons as they enter this contest winning just 3-of-10. TCU who has 16 wins on the year is just 1-8 on the road and the home Cyclones have suffered their two worst losses in school history. Iowa State is 2-6 ATS in their last eight while the Horned Frogs are 2-7 ATS in their last nine. (not that much on either side) But, TCU has won the last five meetings win a non-cover OT win 81-79 this season. Take TEXAS CHRISTIAN! |

Louisville at Florida State 7:00 ET Cardinals (+) over Seminoles- No. 8 Florida State is one of the more talented teams in the nation and have won their last three and six of seven. Louisville who has a deep basketball tradition is 23-5 on the season and have only one player scoring in double-digits. That is a testament to a well coached team with balance. The Seminoles took the first meeting at Louisville 78-65 in early January a stinging loss that grounded the Cardinals. Louisville is 5-0 ATS in their last five against teams with winning records and the road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take LOUISVILLE! |

Indiana at Toronto 6:00 ET Pacers (+) over Raptors- Toronto who many though would take a step down after losing Kawhi Leonard to the Clippers but have played like true Champions without him. The Raptors lost their final game before the All-Star break ending a franchise record 15-game winning streak but rebounded (noticed how I fit that in) with a 118-101 win over Phoenix. Meanwhile, Indiana ended a six game losing streak with a win over Milwaukee and are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games. As good as the Raptors have been they are just 2-8 ATS in games following a win by 10-points or more. Take INDIANA! |

But, Rutgers is a tougher club this season and is 12-5-1 in their last 18 games overall and 10-4-2 ATS in their last 16 games as underdogs. The Badgers are 1-4-2 ATS following a straight-up win. Take RUTGERS! |

L.S.U. at South Carolina 6:00 ET Gamecocks (+) over Tigers- Yeah, well this one look bogus to me...after losing their last two at Alabama and at home to Kentucky the oddsmaker seems to think that LSU is ready to swoon. The Gamecocks have been sneaking up on people as the leaders knocked each other around they have won five of six. The Tigers find them selves in almost the same spot as last year when the entered Columbia on a 3-game slide and posted a 89-67 victory to end their slide. This year it's only at two-games until the final buzzer here...then it will be three. Take SOUTH CAROLINA! |

Dallas at Orlando 7:00 ET Magic (+) over Mavericks- The Dallas Mavericks is 33-22 at the break and are tied with Oklahoma City for the 7thseed in the Western Conference. The key to the Mavs resurgence has been the play of Luca Doncic who miss seven games before the break with Dallas losing five but rebounded with a 20-point win over the Kings when he returned to the lineup. Orlando who has struggled offensively posted a pair of wins before the break scoring 135 and 116 points after having lost 8-of-10. The Mavericks have had the best of the Magic winning 10 of the last 13 meetings in Orlando. Ugly trends surround the Magic as they are 1-6 ATS in their last seven home games and 2-9 ATS overall in their last 11 as host. Still, the Mavs fall short here. Take ORLANDO! |

These two clubs met on January 2 and were both at 13-22 at that time, but, since then the Grizzlies have gone 15-4 and the Kings 8-11. Sacramento won that matchup 128-123 after overcoming a 20-point deficit. Jabari Parker is expected to make his team debut for the Kings tonight after being acquired from Atlanta.

No. 25 Ohio State has the nation's 14th ranked defense efficiency and hold opponents to 41.2% shooting on 2-point field goals. This will be the only regular season meeting and the home team is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings and now I ask. With the home court and higher poll ranking I question by the 'price' on Iowa is so cheap. The Buckeyes are 10-3 following a ATS win while the Hawkeyes are 0-3-2 ATS in their last five games following a straight-up win. Take OHIO STATE! |

Auburn at Georgia 7:00 ET Bulldogs (+) over Tigers- No. 11 Auburn hasn't been anything special since losing their first game of the season at Alabama when they were 16-0 and ranked No. 4 in the country. The Tigers have struggled from the perimeter and have lost projected NBA lottery pick Issac Okoro who suffered a hamstring injury and sat out Saturday's loss at Missouri as they have dropped three of five on the road. Georgia meanwhile has lost four straight and eight of nine but will have a healthy Anthony Edwards who many expect to be the top NBA pick in June. Take GEORGIA! |
