01-01-19 | Washington +7 v. Ohio State | Top | 23-28 | Win | 100 | 85 h 12 m | Show |
20* WASHINGTON/OHIO STATE CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Washington +7 -110 My money is on the Huskies to cash in an easy cover here as a 7-point dog against the Buckeyes. It's not that I don't think Ohio State isn't the more talented team, I just think bowl games are all about motivation. The Buckeyes got passed up by the playoff committee, despite going 12-1 and winning the Big Ten title. I think after watching how bad Notre Dame played against Clemson that Ohio State was more deserving. It's just not the same playing in a bowl of less magnitude and then you got the distraction with Urban Meyer stepping down. I think Washington and Chris Petersen really need this game and will be 100% locked in. Bet the Huskies +7! |

01-01-19 | Winthrop +20 v. Florida State | 76-87 | Win | 100 | 5 h 36 m | Show | |
15* WINTHROP/FLORIDA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Winthrop +20 -105 My money is on the Eagles to cash in a cover here as a big road dog against the No. 9 ranked Seminoles. FSU is simply way over-priced here. This will be a tough one for them to show for. Not only cause it's New Year's Day, but this is their last cupcake opponent before they start ACC play, which they open up on Saturday at Virginia. Bet Winthrop +20! |
|||||||
12-31-18 | Warriors -10 v. Suns | 132-109 | Win | 100 | 17 h 17 m | Show | |
15* WARRIORS/SUNS NBA SHARP PLAY on Warriors -10 -105 My money is on the Warriors to go into Phoenix and secure an easy win and cover here as a double-digit favorite. Golden State is fresh off a double-digit win and cover at Portland. Warriors allowed 105 points to the Blazers, which is the 6th straight game they have allowed 105 or more. That's something to note, as we have seen the Warriors go an impressive 10-1 ATS after allowing 105 or more points in 4 straight games. Golden State is also 8-1 ATS in their last 9 road games vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their games. Suns are 0-4 ATS last 4 at home vs a team with a winning road record. Bet Warriors -10! |
|||||||
12-31-18 | Albany v. Niagara -4 | 79-74 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
15* ALBANY/NIAGARA CBB SHARP PLAY on Niagara -4 -115 My money is on the Purple Eagles to cash in an easy win and cover here as a small home favorite against the Great Danes of Albany. Niagara is by far the better team and have a solid 4-2 record on their home floor. The Great Danes have just 4 wins on the season and are 1-5 away from home. Purple Eagles have covered 6 of their last 8 vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their games. Bet Niagara -4! |
|||||||
12-31-18 | Pittsburgh +5.5 v. Stanford | Top | 13-14 | Win | 100 | 82 h 12 m | Show |
20* HYUNDAI SUN BOWL SHARP TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh +5½ -109 My money is on the Panthers to cash in a winning ticket as a near touchdown dog against the Cardinal. A lot of people want to write-off what Pitt has been able to accomplish this year. You can't blame them for taking advantage of a weak Coastal. Stanford plays in the Pac-12 for cyring out loud, which is easily the worst of the Power 5 conferences. Not to mention the Cardinal weren't anything close to what we have seen in previous years and I think they will be lucky to win this thing. Bet Pittsburgh +5.5! |
|||||||
12-30-18 | Eagles -6.5 v. Redskins | 24-0 | Win | 100 | 85 h 37 m | Show | |
15* EAGLES/REDSKINS NFL SHARP PLAY on Eagles -6½ -110 My money is on the Eagles to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Redskins. Unfortunately for the defending champs they waited to long to start playing with a chip on their shoulder. I would want nothing to do with facing this team in the playoffs, but for that to happen the Bears have to upset the Vikings. Chicago has stated they are playing to win, despite needing the 49ers to upset the Rams for their game to matter, so there's some life for the Eagles. Either way, I think Philadelphia takes care of business against a injury-depleted Washington team. Bet the Eagles -6.5! |
|||||||
12-30-18 | UC Riverside v. Western Michigan -9 | 64-73 | Push | 0 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
15* UC RIVERSIDE/W MICHIGAN CBB SHARP PLAY on Western Michigan -9 -108 My money is on the Broncos to cash in an easy win and cover here as a near double-digit favorite at home against the Highlanders. These two teams both come in with a mere 5-wins, but there's really no debate who the better team is. Washington Michigan needs a win after losing their last 3 and will have no problem covering this number against UC Riverside. Broncos are 20-8 ATS last 28 at home after losing 6 or 7 of their last 8 and Highlanders are 5-15 ATS last 20 non-conference road games. Bet Western Michigan -9! |
|||||||
12-30-18 | Panthers +9 v. Saints | Top | 33-14 | Win | 100 | 81 h 12 m | Show |
25* NFC SOUTH GAME OF THE MONTH on Panthers +9 -114 My money is on the Panthers to cash in an easy cover here against the Saints. This line is absolutely ridiculous. The game means absolutely nothing to New Orleans, as they have the No. 1 seed in the bag. Several starters won't play and this isn't just a game Carolina can keep close, but win outright. I think this game means a lot to the Panthers, who come in having lost 7 straight. You don't want to take a losing streak like that into the offseason. Bet the Panthers +9! |
|||||||
12-30-18 | Alabama A&M +20 v. Hawaii | 63-71 | Win | 100 | 15 h 12 m | Show | |
15* ALABAMA A&M/HAWAII CBB SHARP PLAY on Alabama A&M +20 -115 My money is on the Bulldogs to cover the 20-point spread on the road against the Rainbow Warriors. Alabama A&M comes in with a mere 1-11 record, but they just got their first win of the season last time out in a 67-59 victory over Tulane. They are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 non-conference games and 5-1 TS last 6 off a win. Bet Alabama A&M +20! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Long Beach State +11.5 v. Stanford | 86-93 | Win | 100 | 19 h 42 m | Show | |
15* LONB BEACH ST/STANFORD CBB SHARP PLAY on Long Beach State +11½ -109 My money is on the 49ers to cash in a cover as a double-digit dog against the Cardinal. Long Beach State has covered 4 of their last 5 against a team from the Pac-12. Stanford just isn't very good this year, which is why they come in at 6-5. The fact that they were just a 9-point dog at San Francisco says it all. Bet Long Beach State +11.5! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Cavs +5 v. Hawks | 108-111 | Win | 100 | 16 h 47 m | Show | |
15* CAVS/HAWKS NBA SHARP PLAY on Cavs +5 -106 My money is on the Cavs to cash in a cover here on the road against the Hawks. I get Cleveland isn't a good team and the Hawks are playing well, but this is too many points for Atlanta to be laying, especially in this spot. While both teams are playing on no rest, I think the Hawks could have the tougher time getting up for this game, as they are off a huge upset win as a 10-point dog against the Timberwolves and have to feel like they can just show up here and beat Cleveland. Bet the Cavs +5! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Furman v. East Tennessee State -2.5 | 56-79 | Win | 100 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
15* E TENN ST/FURMAN CBB SHARP PLAY on East Tennessee State -2½ -109 My money is on the Buccaneers to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Paladins. East Tennessee State comes into this game at 10-4 and are a perfect 6-0 at home where they are scoring almost 90 (89.7) and giving up less than 60 (58.5). I get that Furman is 12-1, but they did just have their 12-0 start snapped with a 18-point loss at LSU. Bet the Bucs -2.5! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Florida v. Michigan -6.5 | Top | 41-15 | Loss | -106 | 80 h 12 m | Show |
20* PEACH BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Michigan -6½ -106 My money is on the Wolverines to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Gators. No one expecting Michigan to show up here after how they ended the season with that ugly loss to Ohio State, which kept them out of the Big Ten title and likely the college football playoff. I'm not buying that. I expect the Wolverines to come to play and that should be more than enough for them to beat a pretty average Florida team by at least a touchdown. Bet Michigan -6.5! |
|||||||
12-29-18 | Northern Illinois +24 v. Michigan State | 60-88 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |
15* N ILLINOIS/MICHIGAN ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Northern Illinois +24 -108 My money is on the Huskies of Northern Illinois to cash in an easy cover here as a massive underdog against the Spartans. More than anything, this is just a really tough spot for Michigan State. This will be the Spartans last game until they return to Big Ten action on Jan. 2nd. I also think it will be tough for Michigan State to cover this big number with how well Northern Illinois shoots the basketball. The Huskies have shot 50% or better from the field in 6 of their last 8 games and are shooting 52.3% for the season. Give me Northern Illinois +24! |
|||||||
12-28-18 | Spurs +4 v. Nuggets | 99-102 | Win | 100 | 15 h 33 m | Show | |
15* SPURS/NUGGETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Spurs +4 -105 My money is on the Spurs to cash in a win and cover here as a road dog against the Nuggets. San Antonio just beat the Nuggets 111-103 at home on Wednesday. Typically that would signal a revenge play on Denver here, but I just don't trust the Nuggets at all with the injuries they are dealing with. At the same time, I think San Antonio is playing as well as any team in the NBA over the last 3 weeks. Spurs are 8-2 SU and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. A stretch in which their defense has not allowed a single opponent to shoot better than 43.5% from the field. Bet the Spurs +4! |
|||||||
12-28-18 | Iowa State +3 v. Washington State | Top | 26-28 | Win | 100 | 84 h 8 m | Show |
20* ALAMO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iowa State +3 -109 My money is on the Cyclones to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Cougars in the 2018 Alamo Bowl. Washington State was one of the best stories in the country this year, as a lot of people thought they wouldn't even make a bowl and they nearly won the Pac-12. The thing is they were a win over their rivals away from playing for a conference title and a spot in the Rose Bowl. I just question if they are really happy about playing this game and at the same time, I don't trust them the slightest. Mike Leach's Cougars have been a favorite in each of the last 4 bowls they have gone to and only walked out with 1 win. Iowa State is arguably the better team and really has all the edges you look for when handicapping a bowl game. Bet the Cyclones +3! |
|||||||
12-28-18 | Delaware +12 v. Hofstra | 46-91 | Loss | -108 | 39 h 12 m | Show | |
15* DELAWARE/HOFSTRA CBB SHARP PLAY on Delaware +12 -108 My money is on the Blue Hens to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Pride. Hofstra is getting a ton of love due to the fact that they are 10-3 overall with a perfect 7-0 record at home. It's got people overlooking the fact that Delaware is 4-2 on the road and are 4-1-1 ATS. Pride are 5-120-1 ATS last 26 at home vs a team that's won 60% or more of their road games. Bet the Blue Hens +12! |
|||||||
12-27-18 | Celtics +2 v. Rockets | 113-127 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 17 m | Show | |
15* CELTICS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Celtics +2 -110 My money is on the Celtics to easily cash in a win on the road against the Rockets. I get that Houston has won a couple here without Chris Paul, including a thrilling 113-109 victory against OKC on Christmas Day, but I really like what I'm seeing from Boston. I fully expect the Celtics to go on a big run the rest of the way. It started with that OT win over the 76ers and will continue with a win tonight. Bet the Celtics +2 |
|||||||
12-27-18 | UMKC +19.5 v. Creighton | 53-89 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 24 m | Show | |
15* UMKC/CREIGHTON CBB SHARP PLAY on UMKC +19½ -109 My money is on the Kangaroos to cash in as a big road dog against the Bluejays on Thursday. Creighton comes into this game off a 110-60 cupcake win at home against Coe and that puts them in the ideal fade spot, as the Bluejays are a mere 4-11 ATS in their last 15 off a SU win, 2-7 ATS in their last 9 after scoring 90+ points and 2-8 ATS last 10 off a SU win by more than 20 points. Bet UMKC +19.5! |
|||||||
12-27-18 | Duke v. Temple -3 | Top | 56-27 | Loss | -110 | 52 h 34 m | Show |
20* INDEPENDENCE BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Temple -3 -110 My money is on Temple to cash in an easy win and cover as a 3-point favorite against the Blue Devils in the 2018 Independence Bowl. The simple fact that the Owls are favored over a Power 5 opponent after their head coach left to take over at Georgia Tech really says it all. I just think people are really underestimating how much talent is on this Temple roster and I got major concerns for Duke's offense. The Blue Devils scored a mere 13 points in their final two games of the regular season and had 7 turnovers in their last 3 games. The Owls scored 40 or more in 3 of their last 4. Duke won't be able to keep up. Bet Temple -3! |
|||||||
12-26-18 | Cavs +10.5 v. Grizzlies | 87-95 | Win | 100 | 14 h 13 m | Show | |
15* CAVS/GRIZZLIES NBA SHARP PLAY on Cavs +10½ -110 My money is on the Cavaliers to cash in an easy winner here as a double-digit dog against the Grizzlies. Memphis shouldn't be this big of a favorite against any team in the league with how they have been playing. The Grizzlies have won just 5 games since they beat the Spurs back on Nov. 21. They had just lost 5 straight before getting a win against the Lakers Sunday, but you have to wonder just how much of that was LA looking ahead to their big game against the Warriors on Christmas Day. Bet the Cavs +10.5! |
|||||||
12-25-18 | Indiana State +12 v. TCU | 69-83 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 12 m | Show | |
15* INDIANA ST/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on Indiana State +12 -109 My money is on the Sycamores to cash in a easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Horned Frogs. TCU is way overvalued right now, as they have covered 7 straight including a 20-point win at home over Indiana State back on 12/16. This game is in Honolulu and I'm expecting a much more competitive game. Bet the Sycamores! |
|||||||
12-25-18 | 76ers v. Celtics -3.5 | Top | 114-121 | Win | 100 | 38 h 47 m | Show |
20* 76ERS/CELTICS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Celtics -3½ -105 My money is on the Celtics to cash in an easy win and cover at home against division rival Philadelphia. Boston has underachieved to this point, but are still one of the elite teams in the east and I expect them to play their best here at home against the 76ers. Boston is 7-1 at home against Philadelphia over the last 3 seasons, including a 105-87 blowout win earlier this season. Bet the Celtics -3.5! |
|||||||
12-23-18 | Chiefs v. Seahawks +2.5 | Top | 31-38 | Win | 100 | 89 h 32 m | Show |
20* CHIEFS/SEAHAWKS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Seahawks +2½ +100 My money is on the Seahawks to cash in a win at home against the Chiefs. I fully expect Seattle to win this game outright, but I'm taking the points just for some extra insurance. Kansas City's offense just hasn't had the same feel to it since they lost star running back Kareem Hunt and have had to make due without wideout Sammy Watkins. Seattle reminds me a lot of a Ravens team that went into Kansas City and should have beat the Chiefs a couple weeks back. As good as Mahomes is, and he's really good, KC simply doesn't have the defense or running game to win December and January football. Bet the Seahawks +2.5! |
|||||||
12-23-18 | Hawks v. Pistons -9 | 98-95 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 17 m | Show | |
15* HAWKS/PISTONS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pistons -9 -105 My money is on the Pistons to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Hawks. I'm expecting a big effort here from Detroit coming off an ugly loss at Charlotte where they scored a mere 89 points. Atlanta has given up 100+ in 5 straight games and are 3-14 on the season in road games, where they are getting outscored by 11.3 ppg. Bet the Pistons -9! |
|||||||
12-23-18 | Jaguars +4.5 v. Dolphins | 17-7 | Win | 100 | 81 h 12 m | Show | |
15* JAGUARS/DOLPHINS NFL SHARP PLAY on Jaguars +4½ -110 My money is on the Jags to cash in as a road dog against the Dolphins in Week 16. I just don't trust the Miami the slightest. For as bad as everyone is saying Jacksonville is playing, they have just one loss by more than 6-points in their last 7 games and the lone exception was a road game on short rest for Thursday Night Football. There's still a ton of talent on that defensive side of the ball and Leonard Fournette is healthy and should be in line for a big day after watching Miami give up over 200 yards rushing last week to the Vikings. Bet Jacksonville +4.5! |
|||||||
12-23-18 | Charlotte +21.5 v. TCU | 57-82 | Loss | -108 | 15 h 2 m | Show | |
15* CHARLOTTE/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on Charlotte +21½ -108 My money is on the 49ers to cover this massive spread in the opening round of the Diamond Head Classic in Honolulu. No question TCU is the better team, but this is really tough spot for them to show up and play at the level needed to win here by more than the number. Just too easy too look past Charlotte with all the distractions not only with being on vacation in Hawaii, but Christmas just a few days away. 49ers have an upset win as a 13-point dog over Oklahoma State and I'm confident they keep it close. Bet Charlotte +21.5 |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Ravens +4.5 v. Chargers | Top | 22-10 | Win | 100 | 65 h 32 m | Show |
20* RAVENS/CHARGERS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Ravens +4½ -105 My money is on Baltimore to cash in a winning ticket here as a well priced dog. Sure the Chargers are coming off a big win against KC, but the Chiefs really dominated that game and should have won. Los Angeles doesn't have much of a home field edge playing at the StubHub Center. All the talk is about how Lamar Jackson won't be able to run against a good Chargers defense. It's a lot harder to stop a mobile quarterback than it is to just focus in on a running back. No other team runs their QB like Baltimore. It's the closest thing the league has seen to Michael Vick. I think the Ravens keep doing what they have been doing, while the Baltimore defense locks in on Rivers and that LA offense. Bet the Ravens +4.5! |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Seton Hall +8.5 v. Maryland | 78-74 | Win | 100 | 14 h 42 m | Show | |
15* SETON HALL/MARYLAND CBB SHARP PLAY on Seton Hall +8½ -109 My money is on the Pirates to go into College Park and keep this well within the number set by the books. Maryland came into the season undervalued and simply were better than people thought. They have now covered 4 straight and 5 of their last 6 overall, which is why they are being asked to lay such a big price here against a quality Seton Hall team that has won 4 straight and are 7-1 in their last 8, with the only loss a 5-point defeat to Louisville. Bet the Pirates +8.5! |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Loyola-Chicago v. St. Joe's -3 | 42-45 | Push | 0 | 13 h 12 m | Show | |
15* LOYOLA-CHI/ST. JOE'S CBB SHARP PLAY on St. Joe's -3 -108 My money is on the Hawks to cash in a win and cover here at home against the Ramblers. Loyola is just way overvalued coming into this season after what they did a year ago. For evidence of that, all you have to do is look at their 4-7 ATS record. This is just too good a price to pass up on St. Joes at home. Don't be fooled by the Hawks 2-5 record in their last 7 games, as they have played a brutal schedule during this stretch. St Joes is 5-1 ATS last 6 off a SU loss and 9-4-1 ATS last 14 at home. Bet the Hawks -3! |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Houston v. Army -4.5 | 14-70 | Win | 100 | 57 h 2 m | Show | |
15* ARMED FORCES BOWL CFB SHARP PLAY on Army -4½ -106 My money is on the Black Knights to easily cover the spread here against the Cougars. Not only does Army have the motivational edge, I think they are the more talented team. All the talk is about how fast Houston plays and how much Army slows the game down. With Ed Oliver not playing and all the injuries that have piled up for the Cougars defensive line, I'm confident the Black Knights will be able to run the ball and control the clock. I think that's going to really frustrate this Houston offense, which keep in mind is without their best player in quarterback D'Eriq King. Bet Army -4.5! |
|||||||
12-22-18 | Wake Forest +19.5 v. Tennessee | 64-83 | Win | 100 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |
15* WAKE FOREST/TENNESSEE CBB SHARP PLAY on Wake Forest +19½ -108 My money is on the Demon Deacons to cash in an easy cover here as a massive road dog against the Volunteers. Tennessee has started out the season 9-1 with a perfect 6-0 record at home. The public has taken notice of this team and there's no doubt they are overvalued right now by oddsmakers. That's evident by the fact that despite the great overall record, Tennessee is just 4-4 ATS overall and a mere 1-3-1 ATS in their 5 lined home games. Bet Wake Forest +19.5! |
|||||||
12-21-18 | Southern Utah v. USC -11.5 | 49-91 | Win | 100 | 19 h 12 m | Show | |
15* SOUTHERN UTAH/USC CBB SHARP PLAY on USC -11½ -110 My money is on the Trojans to easily win and cover here as a double-digit home favorite against the Thunderbirds. USC has covered 9 of their last 12 at home against a team with a losing road record and we can bank on a max effort here from the Trojans with them coming in off 4 straight losses. The key thing to note is only one of them came at home and that was too an elite Nevada team. Southern Utah is simply outclassed. Bet USC -11.5! |
|||||||
12-21-18 | Pistons +4 v. Hornets | 86-98 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 17 m | Show | |
15* PISTONS/HORNETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pistons +4 +103 My money is on the Pistons to cash in as a road dog against the Hornets on Friday. Detroit comes into this one off a huge 129-123 win at Minnesota, where they rallied from way back in the 4th quarter. They are 3-0-1 ATS last 4 and I like them to win outright here against a struggling Charlotte team. Hornets are just 4-5 in their last 9 and have only covered twice during this run, which includes a 1-6 ATS mark at home. Bet Detroit +4! |
|||||||
12-21-18 | East Tennessee State v. Wyoming +5.5 | 76-53 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 28 m | Show | |
15* WYOMING/EAST TENN STATE CBB SHARP PLAY on Wyoming +5½ -109 My money is on the Cowboys to easily cover as a 5.5-point dog against East Tennessee State in the opening round of the Sun Bowl Invitational. The Buccaneers have a 8-4 record, while Wyoming is a mere 3-7, but that all has to do with who these two teams have played. I think the Cowboys are the better team and fully expect them to win this game outright, but will gladly take the points for insurance. Bet Wyoming +5.5! |
|||||||
12-21-18 | Florida International v. Toledo -5.5 | Top | 35-32 | Loss | -110 | 81 h 42 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Toledo -5½ -110 My money is on the Rockets to cash in an easy cover here against FIU in the Bahamas Bowl. It's been a great year for the Panthers, but they are going into this one shorthanded and simply won't be able to keep it close. Starting quarterback and 2018 C-USA Newcomer of the Year, James Morgan is not going to play. They also had running back Sawndarrius Phillips arrested and he too won't be available. Toledo comes in averaging 41.1 ppg and 448 yards/game. FIU isn't going to be able to keep pace offensively without Morgan. Bet the Rockets -5.5! |
|||||||
12-20-18 | Rockets -3 v. Heat | Top | 99-101 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 17 m | Show |
20* ROCKETS/HEAT NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Rockets -3 -105 My money is on the Rockets to easily cash in a cover as a short road favorite against the Heat. Miami is playing on 3 days rest and the Rockets played yesterday. It's not going to matter. Houston is just too talented and are finally playing up to their potential. Maybe they don't win here by double-digits like they would if they had at least one day of rest, but I'm confident they get the job done and secure their 6th straight win. Bet the Rockets -3! |
|||||||
12-20-18 | Marshall -3 v. South Florida | 38-20 | Win | 100 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
15* GASPARILLA BOWL CFB SHARP PLAY on Marshall -3 -109 My money is on the Thundering Herd to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Bulls. All the talk about USF is they started out 7-0 and then lost 5 straight because the schedule got a lot tougher. They lost 5 straight because they aren't a very good team and played a bunch of cupcakes early on and won some games they shouldn't have. Marshall was a top player in C-USA and has the defense to slow down USF and the Bulls play no defense. Thundering Herd head coach Doc Holliday is also a perfect 5-0 in bowl games. Bet Marshall -3! |
|||||||
12-20-18 | Yale -10.5 v. Monmouth | 66-58 | Loss | -108 | 13 h 44 m | Show | |
15* YALE/MONMOUTH CBB SHARP PLAY on Yale -10½ -108 My money is on the Bulldogs to cash in an easy win and cover here as a double-digit road favorite against the Hawks. Yale is a respectable 5-3 on the season, while Monmouth is winless at 0-11. Two of the Bulldogs 3 losses are true road games against Duke and Memphis. They won at Cal and beat Miami. This is a complete mismatch. Bet Yale -10.5! |
|||||||
12-19-18 | Warriors v. Jazz +3.5 | 103-108 | Win | 100 | 12 h 41 m | Show | |
15* WARRIORS/JAZZ NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz +3½ -109 My money is on Utah to cash in here as a home dog agains the Warriors. I just think the Jazz are going to want this one more and Utah is not exactly a fun or easy place for opposing teams to play. Golden State is basically just going through the motions, as they have to be a bit bored with the regular-season by now. The are 6-1 in their last 7 and got 4 home games on deck. I think they come out super flat here and Utah gets the outright win. Bet the Jazz +3.5! |

15* VALPARAISO/TEXAS A&M CBB SHARP PLAY on Valparaiso +11 -109 My money is on the Crusaders to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit favorite against Texas A&M. Aggies have won 3 straight, but are just 4-4 on the season and have only covered 2 out of their 8 games and are 0-4 ATS at home. Valpo has failed to cover their lat 4, but are a quality team and have covered as decent priced dogs at both West Virginia and UNLV. Bet the Crusaders +11! |

20* DXL FRISCO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on San Diego State +2½ +106 My money is on the Aztecs to cash in as a small dog against the Bobcats in the DXL Frisco Bowl. I just don't think the MAC is that good and Ohio is getting way too much love as a favorite here. I think San Diego State is the far superior team and will not only win this game outright, but win this thing in a blowout. Bet the Aztecs +2.5! |

15* W MICHIGAN/DAYTON CBB SHARP PLAY on Western Michigan +12½ -108 My money is on the Broncos to cash in an easy winner here as a big double-digit dog against the Flyers. Dayton comes into this game having lost 5 of their last 6, including a 5-point loss as a 4-point favorite in their last game vs Tulsa. Flyers for whatever reason just keep getting love from the books, yet are just 14-26 ATS in their last 40 games and 2-6 ATS last 8 off a loss. Bet Western Michigan +12.5! |

15* WIZARDS/HAWKS NBA SHARP PLAY on Hawks +4½ -109 My money is on the Hawks to cash in a cover here as a home dog against the Wizards. Atlanta will be out for revenge from a recent home loss to Washington back on Dec. 5. That was a tough spot for the Hawks as they had just laid it all on the line agains the Warriors in their previous game. That was one of just 4 road wins for the Wizards this season, who are dismal 4-12 ATS on the road. Washington is also not playing great right now, as they have lost 4 of their last 5. Bet the Hawks +4.5! |

20* BOCA RATON BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois +3 -115 My money is on Northern Illinois to cash in an easy cover as an underdog against UAB. I just think the books have completely missed the mark here, as I think the Huskies are the better team. UAB is a great story, but I don't think C-USA is all that it's made out to be. The Huskies are better than people think, as they played an absolutely brutal non-conference schedule against the likes of Iowa, Utah, FSU and BYU. They started out 6-0 in MAC play and had the division title wrapped up before losing their final two conference games. They then upset a really good Buffalo team in the MAC title game. Bet Northern Illinois +3! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Oakland +12½ -110 My money is on the Golden Grizzlies to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog at Georgia. This is not a very good Bulldogs team. Georgia comes into this game with a mere 5-4 record, which includes an ugly 24-point loss to Georgia State. Oakland has lost 4 of their lat 5 and are just 5-7 on the season, but only 2 of those 7 losses have come by more than 10 points. Bet the Golden Grizzlies +12.5! |

15* CHARLESTON/SIENA CBB SHARP PLAY on College of Charleston -5 -109 My money is on the Cougars to cash in an easy win and cover here on the road against the Saints. Charleston has been outstanding early on. They are 9-2 with their only 2 losses coming at Oklahoma State and on a neutral court vs LSU (they were competitive in both). Last time out they won at VCU by 4 as a 5.5-point dog. Siena is no match here. Saints have already lost home games to the likes of Lehigh and Colgate. Bet Charleston -5! |

20* SAINTS/PANTHERS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Saints -6 -102 My money is on the Saints to cash in a cover here on the road against the Panthers. Carolina comes in having lost 5 straight, but because they started out 6-2, they continue to get overvalued by the books. New Orleans had an ugly loss at Dallas and played a awful half last week against the Bucs, but they got the offense back on track in the 2nd half at Tampa Bay and I just think that offense will be too much for the Panthers to keep this game close. Carolina's defense gets a lot of love, but they aren't very good against the pass and are giving up 25.5 ppg. New Orleans' defense hasn't allowed more than 17 points in 5 straight games. Bet the Saints -6! |

15* SIU-EDWARDSVILLE/DRAKE CBB SHARP PLAY on SIU-Edwardsville +14 -109 My money is on the Cougars to cash in as a double-digit dog against the Bulldogs. No one is going to want anything to do with SIU Edwardsville against a Drake team that comes in having covered 6 straight. The books know this and they have drastically inflated this line, which I feel should be a lot closer to 8-9 points. Bet the Cougars +14! |

15* BUCKS/PISTONS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3½ -100 My money is on Milwaukee to cash in an easy cover and win on the road against division rival Detroit. The Bucks have taken division games very seriously and their 6-1 record in division games this year reflects that. Note they aren't just sneaking out wins, they are outscoring division opponets by 10.6 ppg. Detroit upset the Celtics last time out, but that one win doesn't cover up the 6-game losing streak prior to that. Look for the Pistons to return right back to their losing ways. Bet the Bucks -3.5! |

20* EAGLES/RAMS SNF PLAY OF THE MONTH on Eagles +11 -115 My money is on the Eagles to cover the double-digit spread against the Rams. Philadelphia is in a familiar spot in December. The Eagles are being counted out after losing Carson Wentz to a serious injury. Does Nick Foles have another magical run in him? It's not out of the question. Either way, I think we see Philadelphia get back some of that nasty underdog mentality that carried them to a Super Bowl last year. Rams are in a tough spot these final 3 weeks. They got their division wrapped up and are going to end up with at worst the No. 2 seed. I don't see them matching the intensity of the Eagles, which will make it really hard for them to cover this massive spread. Bet the Eagles +11! |

15* HEAT/PELICANS NBA SHARP PLAY on Heat +7½ -109 My money is on the Heat to cash in as a big dog at New Orleans on Sunday. Miami's been undervalued a bunch here of late. The Heat are 8-3 ATS over their last 11 games. They are also 6-1 ATS last 7 one the road and 24-8-1 ATS last 33 road games vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games. Pelicans are 1-6 AATS last 7 vs a team with a losing record and 0-4 ATS last 4 off a SU win. Bet Miami +7.5! |

15* CHATTANOOGA/OLE MISS CBB SHARP PLAY on Chattanooga +19 -104 My money is on the Mocs as a huge road dog against the Rebels. Ole Miss comes in at 7-2, but this is not a great Rebels team. They are expected to be at or near the bottom of the SEC this year and just think they have a hard time winning here by 20+ points. Bet Chattanooga +19! |

15* INDIANA ST/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on TCU -14 -110 My money is on the Horned Frogs to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Sycamores. Indiana State is simply getting way to much credit for their 6-2 start. The Sycamore haven't played anyone. This will be their first game against a Power 5 opponents. TCU on the other hand is 7-1 on the season and fresh off a 35-point throttling of USC. This should get ugly in a hurry. Bet TCU -14! |

15* ROCKETS/GRIZZLIES NBA SHARP PLAY on Rockets -2½ -109 My money is on the Rockets to cash in as a slim 2.5-point favorite at Memphis. The Rockets have won and covered each of their last 2 and are going to keep playing hungry because of their poor record. The Grizzlies got off to a great start, but have been trending in the wrong way of late. They are just 4-7 in their last 11 both SU and ATS. Bet the Rockets -2.5! |

15* E WASHINGTON/STANFORD CBB SHARP PLAY on Eastern Washington +14 -107 My money is on the Eagles to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Cardinal. This is not a very good Stanford team. They are just 4-4 to start the season and are simply way overvalued here because of how bad Eastern Washington has been to this point. Eagles are a mere 1-7 ATS. The books have over-adjusted here. Bet Eastern Washington +14! |

15* FT WAYNE/AUSTIN PEAY CBB SHARP PLAY on IUPU Ft Wayne +3½ -108 My money is on the Governors to cash in as a home dog against the Mastodons. Austin Peay is just 5-4 on the season, but come in playing their best basketball. They have won 3 straight, which they got going with a upset win at Troy. Simply put, they shouldn't be a home dog here against a team like Ft Wayne, who is 9-26 ATS in their last 35 road games. Bet Austin Peay +3.5! |

15* MARSHALL/AKRON CBB SHARP PLAY on Marshall +4 -108 My money is on the Thundering Herd to cash in an easy winner here as a dog against the Zips. These two teams come in with similar records, but Marshall has played the way tougher schedule. Last year the Herd absolutely destroyed Akron by 22-points at home and I just don't think they should be a dog in this fight. Marshall can light up the scoreboard, as they average 84 ppg and 10 mad 3-pointers. I just don't see the Zips keeping pace. Akron isn't great at forcing turnovers and the Herd are 16-7 ATS last 23 vs teams who average 14 or fewer turnovers/game. Bet Marshall +4! |

Golden State is coming off a humbling 20-point loss at home in a prime time game to the Raptors. Great teams don't take losing lightly and I expect a pissed off Warriors team to take the floor against Sacramento. Kings have been a great story, but they are completely outmatched here.

15* GREEN BAY/CREIGHTON CBB SHARP PLAY on Green Bay +18 -105 My money is on the Phoenix to cash in an easy cover here as a big road dog against the Bluejays. Creighton impressed with a 6-1 start, but the lone loss was a 9-point defeat at home to Ohio State. They enter this one off back-to-back losses, including an ugly 19-point loss at Nebraska. Wisconsin Green Bay has been undervalued a bunch this season, which is why they are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 line games. They also have 4 wins this season in games where they were an underdog.

15* BULLS/MAGIC NBA SHARP PLAY on Bulls +5½ -110 My money is on the Bulls to cash in an easy cover here as a 5.5-point dog against the Magic. This line suggest that if this game was in Orlando the Magic would be close to a 9-point favorite. They shouldn't be laying that many points to any team. In fact, I really like Chicago to win this game outright. They just got back two of their best players in Dunn and Portis and not that long ago got back Markkanen. This team is finally starting to get healthy and I think they come out with a chip on their shoulder after all the negative talk that's come from getting blown out in their last 2 games. Bet the Bulls +5.5! |

20* MOREHEAD ST/SAMFORD CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Morehead State +9 -109 My money is on the Eagles to cash in an easy cover as a near double-digit road dog against the Bulldogs. Morehead State has played the much tougher schedule to this point, so don't be fooled by the fact that they are just 3-6 overall. The Eagles returned all 5 starters from last year and should be one of the more improved teams in the Ohio Valley. Samford didn't return a single starter and are picked to finish middle of the pack in the Southern. This is simply a much more evenly matched game than the records would lead you to believe.

Denver is 3-7 and Wyoming is 3-6. We are simply seeing the Cowboys get some love here because they are off an upset win at home over South Carolina. I actually think that victory works in our favor, as they are primed for a letdown off that big win. Wyoming is also a mere 5-14 ATS last 2 seasons when listed as a favorite and a mere 3-11 in their last 14 as a home favorite. Bet Denver +7.5! |

20* BLAZERS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Rockets -6½ -105 My money is on the Rockets to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Blazers. It's been a rough go of things for Houston, as they come in having lost 3 straight. There's been nothing but negative talk about the Rockets play and it has the public flocking to take the points with Portland, especially given that they already won in Houston earlier this season by a final of 104-85. I'm willing to bet we see Houston get some serious revenge and a much-needed win. Bet the Rockets -6.5! |

No surprise to see the Magic undervalued, as that's been the case for over a month now. Going back to Nov. 9th, Orlando is 11-3-1 ATS in the 15 games they have played. Magic are also a sizzling 9-2 ATS on the road this season, where they are actually outscoring opponents on the season. Bet the Magic +5.5! |

Morehead State just played 3 straight at home and are a sizzling 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games after playing 3 or more straight games at home. Eagles are also 5-1 ATS in their last 6 off a win and 9-2-1 ATS last 12 on the road. Marshall has dropped 4 of their last 5 in non-conference and come in having failed to cover in 3 straight.

The Bucks are just 3-4 SU and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games. They just lost at home by double-digits to Golden State as a 2-point favorite and I just have a hard time seeing them snap out of their funk against Toronto, who is 11-3 at home and out for revenge from a ugly 124-109 loss at Milwaukee earlier this season.

15* OREGON ST/ST LOUIS CBB SHARP PLAY on St. Louis -2½ -110 My money is on the Billikens to cash in a win and cover as a short home favorite against the Beavers. St Louis is off to a strong 6-2 start with a perfect 5-0 record at home. Their only two losses are a mere 2-point defeat against Pitt on a neutral site and a 5-point loss at Southern Illinois. Last time they were at home they knocked off Butler by 12 as a 3.5-point dog. The most recent was that loss to Southern Illinois and it's a game worth mentioning. The Billikens lost 61-56 and are a perfect 11-0 ATS in their last 11 after a road loss where they scored 60 or fewer points. Bet St Louis -2.5! |

25* PATS/DOLPHINS AFC EAST PLAY OF THE MONTH on Dolphins +8 -105 My money is on the Dolphins to cash in a cover here as a big division home dog to the Patriots. Miami is a team the public wants nothing to do with and I think it's resulted in a ton of value with the line shaded heavily in favor of New England. Miami has covered 5 of their last 6 at home and are 7-2 ATS last 9 at home vs a team with a winning road record. Bet the Dolphins +8! |

15* SAINTS/BUCS NFL SHARP PLAY on Bucs +9 -110 My money is on Tampa Bay to cash in an easy cover here, as the Bucs are a near double-digit division home dog to New Orleans. Tampa already beat the Saints once this season, so it's not out of the question they could win here. Note that New Orleans was a 10-point home favorite in Week 1 against the Bucs, which means had they played on a neutral field the Saints would have been about a 6-point favorite and somewhere around a 3-point favorite if it had been in Tampa. As you can see, big overreaction here and the Bucs come into this playing arguably their best football of the season. Bet Tampa Bay +9! |

15* E ILLINOIS/W ILLINOIS CBB SHARP PLAY on Eastern Illinois +10 -110 My money is on the Panthers to cash in a winning ticket here as a double-digit dog against the Leathernecks. Western Illinois comes in off a 68-64 upset loss at Stetson as a 6-point favorite and that's a good thing for us. Teams off an upset loss as a road favorite in a non-conference matchup between two mid-major programs are a mere 34-67 ATS since 1997. That's a 66.3% long-term system in favor of the Panthers. Eastern Illinois is also coming off a game where they held their opponent to a mere 37-points and that's worth noting as they are 7-1 ATS last 8 after allowing less than 50 points. Bet Eastern Illinois +10! |

20* NUGGETS/HAWKS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Hawks +7½ -110 My money is on Atlanta to cash in a cover here as a decently priced home dog against the Nuggets. No question that Denver is the better team, but this is one I think the Nuggets struggle to show up for. This is their 5th straight game on the road and 9th road game in their last 11 overall. They are also on no rest having played last night in Charlotte and are not expected to have Paul Millsap or Gary Harris for this one. Bet the Hawks +7.5! |

20* S ILLINOIS/SE MISSOURI ST CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Southern Illinois -9½ -104 My money is on the Salukis to cash in an easy win and cover here on the road against SE Missouri State. This is just a complete mismatch in talent. The Redhawks have 5 wins over the likes of Quincy, Jacksonville, UT-Chattanooga, Missouri State and Miss Valley St. They lost by 21 at home to South Alabama and double-digits to both St Louis and Bradly. Southern Illinois just beat St Louis in their last game and come in playing with a ton of confidence riding a 4-game winning streak. SE Missouri St is 2-9 ATS last 11 home games and Salukis are 4-1 ATS last 5 on the road. Bet Southern Illinois -9.5! |

15* ARMY/NAVY CFB SHARP PLAY on Army -7 -110 My money is on the Black Knights to make it 3 straight against rival Navy and cover the 7-point spread in the process. I think a lot of people just assume this will be close, but I think there's a pretty big gap in talent this time around. The biggest thing for me is how poorly Navy played earlier in the year against Air Force, losing 35-7. Army's only two losses this season are true road games against Duke and Oklahoma and they took the Sooners to overtime in Norman. Bet Army -7! |

15* LOUISVILLE/INDIANA CBB SHARP PLAY on Indiana -6½ -108 My money is on Indiana to cash in a win and cover at home against the Cardinals. Indiana is 7-2 with their only two losses coming in true road games against Arkansas and Duke. They won both their early Big Ten games, including an upset victory at Penn State last time bout. This is just one of those teams that is a whole different beast on their home floor. Indiana is 12-3 ATS last 15 off a road win by 3-points or less, 11-1 ATS last 12 home games after 3 straight games forcing 14 or fewer turnovers and 8-0 ATS last 8 at home after 2 straight games against conference opponents.

20* THUNDER/BULLS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Thunder -8½ -110 My money is on the Thunder to go into Chicago and cash in a win and cover here. Bulls figure to try a little harder under interim head coach Jim Boylen, but until they get back Kris Dunn and Bobby Portis from injury, this team is going to struggle to be competitive. The offense has just been dreadful, as the Bulls are shooting a miserable 43.9% from the field. In their last 21 games they have shot better than 45% from the field just 6 times. OKC has been playing solid defense of late and after coming out flat last time out against the Nets, I expect a much better effort the whole way in this one. Bet the Thunder -8.5! |

I'm just not huge on the Friars this year and think they are way over-priced coming in on a 4-game winning streak and off an upset win at Boston College. UMass can light it up offensively. The Minutemen are averaging 81.2 ppg and shooting 47% from the field and 38% from long distance. That fire-power on offense should keep them in and gives them an outside shot of winning this thing.

The Rockets built up a 19-point lead in the 1st half at Minnesota on Monday, but then decided to take the 2nd half off and lost 103-91, scoring just 29 points in the 2nd half and just 9 in the 4th quarter. That's embarrassing and I expect them to bounce back in a big way here. As for Utah, it's the exact opposite. They are do for a major letdown after shooting a ridiculous 61% from the field and making 20-pointers in a 139-105 win at home over the Spurs. Bet the Rockets +2! |

20* IOWA STATE/IOWA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iowa +1½ -105 My money is on the Hawkeyes to cash in a win and cover here as a small home dog against in-state rival Iowa State. Iowa is showing big time value here due to the fact that they lost their last two and failed to cover both, but it came against two of the top teams in the Big Ten in Wisconsin and Michigan State. Cyclones are just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 road games against a team with a winning home record and Iowa is 3-0-1 ATS last 4 off a SU loss by more than 20 points. Take Iowa +1.5! |

20* OKLAHOMA ST/TULSA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Tulsa +1 -110 My money is on the Golden Hurricane to cash in a cover against the Cowboys on Wednesday. Tulsa is a perfect 5-0 at home this season and all 3 of Oklahoma State's losses have come on the road. Tulsa has lost 3 of 4, but were competitive in all 3 and they came against quality competition in Nevada, Southern Illinois and Utah. Cowboys have lost both true road games they have played, including an ugly loss at Charlotte as a 13-point favorite. Bet Tulsa +1! |

20* HAWKS/WIZARDS SOUTHEAST GAME OF THE MONTH on Hawks +5 -110 My money is on Atlanta as home dog against the Wizards. As bad as the Hawks have been so far in 2018, Washington has no business laying this kind of a number on the road against any team. The Wizards are 3-9 SU and 3-9 ATS in their 12 road games to date. Washington is just 13-26 ATS last 39 road games after winning 2 of their last 3 and 15-26 ATS last 41 as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points. Bet the Hawks +5! |

15* MONMOUTH/HOFSTRA CBB SHARP PLAY on Monmouth +14½ -110 My money is on the Hawks to cover the big spread here agains the Pride. I just think we are dealing with a drastically inflated line due to the fact that Monmouth comes in having yet to win a game at 0-9. A big reason for that is the schedule has been brutal. They only lost by 1-point to Hofstra a year ago and I just think they can easily keep this within single digits. The Pride are 3-13 ATS last 16 after covering 6 or 7 of their last 8 games and Monmouth is 10-2 ATS last 12 off a game with a combined score of 110 or less. Bet the Hawks +14.5! |

20* KINGS/SUNS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Kings -6 -110 My money is on the Kings to easily cover the 6-point spread on the road against the Suns. Sacrament snapped a 3-game skid with a win over the Pacers on Saturday and got two days off to get right for this 4-game road trip. It's one they have to be a little excited about, given the 4 games are against Phoenix, Cleveland, Indiana and Chicago. I look for them to be highly motivated to get things started with a win here and with the way Phoenix is playing that shouldn't be a problem. Suns have lost 5 straight and have only won 4 games all season. Bet the Kings -6! |

12-04-18 | Michigan v. Northwestern +7 | Top | 62-60 | Win | 100 | 17 h 12 m | Show |
20* MICHIGAN/NORTHWESTERN CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northwestern +7 -105 My money is on the Wildcats here as a big home dog against the Wolverines. There's no denying that Michigan is better than most expected, but the Wolverines are now No. 5 in the latest poll and everyone is going to be on this team after watching them dismantle North Carolina (84-67) and Purdue (76-57) in back-to-back games. I think it has them way overvalued here against a good Northwestern team. It's just not easy winning on the road in the Big Ten, especially against quality teams. All we need is for the Wildcats to make a game of it and I'm confident they will. Bet Northwestern +7! |

15* RUTGERS/WISCONSIN CBB SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin -13 -110 My money is on the Badgers to cash in as a big home favorite against the Scarlet Knights. Wisconsin came into the season flying way under the radar. While they are now the No.12 ranked team in the country, I still think there's some value to be had on Wisconsin. Rutgers is improved, but still not quite ready to compete with the elite teams in the Big Ten on the road. They just lost by 11 at home to Michigan State and I think they will struggle to keep this within 20 points. Bet Wisconsin -13! |

20* CAVS/NETS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Cavs +6 -110 My money is on the Cavaliers to cash in a decently priced road dog agains the Nets on Monday. Brooklyn was really playing well early on, but have just not been the same team since they lost LeVert to injury. They come in having lost 6 straight overall, as well as each of their last 6 at home. As bad as Cleveland is, this is one they can win and I think worst case they keep it close. Bet the Cavs +6! |

15* LOYOLA MARYMOUNT/UCLA CBB SHARP PLAY on UCLA -9½ -105 My money is on the Bruins to win here by double-digits at home against Loyola-Marymount. The Lions come into this game with a perfect 8-0 record and that simply has them getting way too much respect here against UCLA on the road. While Loyola has wins over UNLV and Georgetown, they haven't seen anything close to the talent they will see on the court against the Bruins. The Lions have also played just one true road game and that was back in early November. UCLA just routed Hawaii by 19 as a 13-point home favorite and I think they could easily win here by 20+. Bet the Bruins -9.5! |

15* JAZZ/HEAT NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz -3½ -110 My money is on the Jazz to cash in a win and cover on the road against the Heat this Sunday. Utah enters off back-to-back impressive road wins over the Nets (101-91) and Hornets (119-111) and I see no reason for them to not keep it going against the Heat. Miami was able to knock off the Pelicans as a home dog in their last game, but this team has not been able to string many wins together. The Heat are just 5-11 in their last 16 and own a mere 4-8 record at home this season. Bet the Jazz -3.5! |

15* VIKINGS/PATRIOTS NFL SHARP PLAY on Vikings +5½ -115 My money is on the Vikings to cash in as a 5.5-point dog at New England. This just doesn't look like the Patriots teams we have seen in the past going into the final month of the regular season. The offense is hit or miss and dealing with a lot of injuries and the defense is far from elite. I just think the Vikings are better than people think and really matchup well with New England. To have success against Brady and the Pats offense, you got to be able to put pressure on him and the Vikings can definitely do that. You also need an offense that can finish drives and there's definitely talent on that side of the ball for Minnesota. I just see a one possession game here in the 4th quarter and a good chance the Vikings win this one outright. Bet Minnesota +5.5! |

20* CHIEFS/RAIDERS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Raiders +15½ -115 My money is on the Raiders to cash in a cover here as a massive home dog against division rival Kansas City. The perception here is that Oakland has no chance of even keeping this game close, let along winning the game. I think that's definitely a stretch for the Raiders to pull off the upset, but I think they will keep it closer than expected. Chiefs figure to be a bit out of sync offensively with the loss of Hunt, which is also an added off the field distraction. More than anything, this Kansas City defense is going to give up yards and are not nearly as good on the road as they are at home. Bet the Raiders +15.5! |

15* MARSHALL/OHIO CBB SHARP PLAY on Ohio +4 -110 My money is on the Bobcats as a short dog against the Thundering Herd. Marshall likes to push the pace and can score with the best of them, but they don't play a ton of defense and this Ohio team is every bit as good as the Herd on the offensive side of the ball. The Bobcats are averaging 75.7 ppg on the season, but that number jumps to 88 ppg on their home court. Marshall allows 90.5 ppg away from home and 77.2 ppg overall. Bet Ohio +4! |

15* SETON HAL/LOUISVILLE CBB SHARP PLAY on Seton Hall -3 -105 My money is on the Pirates to cash in an easy win and cover at home against Louisville. The Cardinals come in off an impressive 82-78 home win over Michigan State as a 5-point dog, but that's just the power of home court in CBB. There's likely to be a bit of a letdown here for Louisville and I still think they endure more growing pains than success this season. Seton Hall is playing with a ton of confidence right now, as they have won 3 straight, including an upset win over Miami last time out. Bet the Pirates -3! |

15* SAN FRANCISCO/BUFFALO CBB SHARP PLAY on San Francisco +5½ -110 My money is on the Dons to cash in a cover here as a short dog against the Bulls. This is just too many points for San Francisco to be catching in a game that I believe should be closer to a pick'em on a neutral court. Neither team has lost this year, but Buffalo is the more known program and the consensus pick to win the MAC this year. Dons are 21-9 ATS last 30 after back-to-back covers as a favorite and 5-1 ATS last 6 when facing a team that's won more than 60% of their games. Bet San Francisco +5.5! |

20* CAVS/CELTICS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Cavs +12½ -110 My money is on Cleveland to cash in a cover here as a double-digit dog against the Celtics. I get Boston is coming into this game off a nice win over the Pelicans, but this line feels a bit off. I get how good the Celtics were suppose to be, but the fact of the matter is they are just 11-10. They will be without two key pieces tonight in Al Horford and Jaylen Brown, plus this is a big lookahead spot facing a bad team with a big game on deck tomorrow at Minnesota. This will be a lot closer than expected. Bet the Cavaliers +12.5! |

20* C CAROLINA/S CAROLINA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on South Carolina -12½ -110 My money is on the Gamecocks to cash in a cover as a big home favorite here against the Chanticleers. This is a big get right game for South Carolina, who was completely embarrassed at home last time out in a 81-61 loss to Wofford. The Gamecocks let Wofford shoot 48% from the field, turned it over 17 times and shot 33%. Coastal Carolina was just a 9.5-point dog at Northern Kentucky and are only getting 3 more points against a Power 5 team. South Carolina is getting no love and this line shows it. It's time to jump on board. Bet the Gamecocks -12.5! |
