11-29-18 | Saints v. Cowboys +7.5 | Top | 10-13 | Win | 100 | 83 h 4 m | Show |
20* SAINTS/COWBOYS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Cowboys +7½ -110 My money is on the Cowboys to cover as a huge 7.5-point home dog to the Saints. Sure New Orleans comes in having won 10 straight and covered 8 in a row, but if you don't think the books have inflated this line given those runs, you haven't been betting very long. New Orleans is a good team and has played well of late, but Dallas is no pushover. Cowboys are playing extremely well since adding Cooper and with the way they can run the ball and how well they play defense, I think they have as good a shot as anyone to slow down Brees and this high-powered Saints offense. Bet the Cowboys +7.5! |

11-28-18 | Valparaiso v. UNLV -5.5 | 72-64 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 46 m | Show | |
15* VALPARAISO/UNLV CBB SHARP PLAY on UNLV -5½ -110 My money is on the Rebels to cash in a win and cover as a 5.5-point home favorite against the Crusaders. Valparaiso is a mere 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 road games against a team with a winning home record. Rebels have been a great team to back at home early on, as they are 17-7 ATS last 3 seasons in home non-conference games. Bet UNLV -5.5! |
|||||||
11-28-18 | Northern Iowa v. Utah State OVER 145.5 | Top | 52-71 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
20* N IOWA/UTAH ST CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Iowa vs Utah State over 145½ -110 My money is on the OVER 145.5 in Wednesday's college basketball action that has Utah State hosting Northern Iowa. Utah State comes into this game averaging 87 ppg and have scored at least 80 in 5 of their 6 games this season. UNI has hit 90 points twice this year. They are coming off a couple of lower scoring games against ODU, but the Monarchs are a team that hangs their hat on the defensive side of the ball. I think both teams easily hit 70 points and this one finishes closer to 160. Bet the OVER 145.5! |
|||||||
11-27-18 | Iona +1 v. Ohio | Top | 65-89 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 24 m | Show |
20* IONA/OHIO CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iona +1 -115 My money is on the Gaels to secure a win on the road against Ohio tonight. Iona came into the season way overvalued and have paid the price with a 0-5 ATS mark in their first 5 games. However, the books have over-adjusted and it's time to jump on the Gaels. Ohio is not a good team and while they come in averaging 73 ppg, we saw them score a mere 46 against USF and 56 vs Loyola-Marymount. Iona has beat Ohio each of the last two years and will make it 3 in a row with an easy win. Bet the Gaels +1! |
|||||||
11-26-18 | Nebraska v. Clemson -3.5 | Top | 68-66 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 24 m | Show |
20* NEBRASKA/CLEMSON CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Clemson -3½ -110 My money is on the Tigers to cash in a win at home against the Cornhuskers. Both these teams come in at 5-1, but Clemson is the one fresh off a loss to Creighton as a 5-point favorite. That was on a neutral site and just a few days ago Nebraska got steam-rolled by Texas Tech 70-52 as a 3-point favorite on a neutral site. I just think home-court is everything in this matchup. Just too good a price to pass up on the Tigers. Bet Clemson -3.5! |
|||||||
11-25-18 | Oregon State v. Long Beach State +8.5 | 75-72 | Win | 100 | 10 h 38 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Long Beach State +8½ -110 My money is on the 49ers to at worst keep this within the big spread for the cover, though I think Long Beach is more than capable of winning this game outright against the Beavers. Oregon State is 4-1 but a lot of that is their schedule and this 49ers squad is no pushover, as they only lost by 11 on the road to UCLA earlier this season, as they put up 80 on the Bruins. Long Beach State's ability to score will allow them to hang around and keep this much closer than expected. Bet the 49ers +8.5! |
|||||||
11-25-18 | Patriots v. Jets +10 | Top | 27-13 | Loss | -115 | 76 h 60 m | Show |
20* PATS/JETS AFC EAST GAME OF THE MONTH on Jets +10 -115 My money is on the Jets to cash in a cover here as a double-digit dog against division rival New England. This is just too good a price to pass up on New York at home. Despite all the roster turnover that's taken place, the Jets always seem to find a way to play the Patriots close at home. They haven't lost by more than a touchdown the last 5 times they hosted New England and won two of those outright. With all the injures the Patriots are dealing with and this team not being nearly as efficient on the road, it will be really hard for NE to pull away here. Bet the Jets +10! |
|||||||
11-24-18 | CS-Fullerton -4 v. CS Sacramento | 82-87 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 41 m | Show | |
15* FULLERTON/SACRAMENTO CBB SHARP PLAY on CS-Fullerton -4 +100 My money is on CS-Fullerton to cash in a win and cover here as a short road favorite against Sacramento State. While Fullerton is just 2-4 and Sacramento is 2-0, the Titans have played the much tougher schedule with 3 games against the likes of Arizona State, UCF and Wake Forest. They played all 3 of those teams close, losing by just 8 at Arizona State and by 7 on a neutral site to the Demon Deacons. Look for them to have no problem here winning by at least 5 points. Bet CS-Fullerton -4! |
|||||||
11-24-18 | Celtics v. Mavs OVER 211.5 | 104-113 | Win | 100 | 17 h 47 m | Show | |
15* CELTICS/MAVS NBA SHARP PLAY on Celtics vs Mavs over 211½ +100 My money is on the OVER 211.5 in Saturday's NBA action that has the Mavericks hosting the Celtics. Boston has got the offense rolling of late and should have no problem staying hot against the Mavericks. Dallas should be able to push the tempo here playing on 2 days of rest, while Celtics are in the second game of a back-to-back set on the road. OVER is 6-2 in Mavs' last 8 when playing on 2 days of rest. Bet the OVER 211.5! |
|||||||
11-24-18 | Southern Miss v. UTEP OVER 44.5 | 39-7 | Win | 100 | 54 h 28 m | Show | |
15* SOUTHERN MISS/UTEP CFB SHARP PLAY on Southern Miss vs UTEP over 44½ -110 My money is on the OVER 44.5 in Saturday's C-USA clash between Southern Miss and UTEP. This is just too low a total for a game that features a team that's as bad defensively as the Miners. UTEP has given up 40+ in each of their last two games against Middle Tenn and Western Kentucky. While Southern Miss hasn't been putting up a ton of points, this is one defense they can expose and there's zero motivation here for UTEP, who has to just want this season to be over with. OVER is 13-4 in the Miners last 17 when they come in having lost 6 or 7 of their last 8 games. Bet the OVER 44.5! |
|||||||
11-24-18 | Stanford v. UCLA +7 | 49-42 | Push | 0 | 11 h 12 m | Show | |
15* STANFORD/UCLA CFB SHARP PLAY on UCLA +7 -105 My money is on the Bruins to cash in an easy cover here as a touchdown dog at home against the Cardinal. While UCLA comes into this game sitting at just 3-8, they have continued to show signs of improvement as the season progresses and are fresh off a 34-27 win at home against USC. There's got to be a ton of excitement going into year two under Chip Kelly and I expect the Bruins to play their hearts out here in the finale home game of 2018. I just don't see a ton of motivation here for the Cardinal and this is not your typical Stanford team in terms of talent. I just think this is too big a price for the Cardinal to be laying away from home. Bet UCLA +7! |
|||||||
11-24-18 | NC State -7.5 v. North Carolina | Top | 34-28 | Loss | -100 | 57 h 32 m | Show |
20* IN-STATE RIVALRY CFB PLAY OF THE MONTH on NC State -7½ +106 My money is on the Wolfpack to add to what's been a miserable 2018 season for the Tar Heels. North Carolina is just 2-8 and one of those two wins came against a FCS foe in Western Carolina. NC State has had their ups and downs this year, but they are fresh off a 52-10 win at Louisville as a mere 16-point favorite and I see no reason not to expect them to win here by at least double-digits. Bet NC State -7.5! |
|||||||
11-23-18 | Washington +3 v. Washington State | Top | 28-15 | Win | 100 | 65 h 42 m | Show |
20* WASHINGTON ST/WASHINGTON CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Washington +3 -109 My money is on Washington to cash in an easy cover here against their in-state rivals. As tempting as it might be to think this will be the year that the Cougars break through against the Huskies, I'm betting we will see more of the same. In the last 5 meetings (starting with the most recent) Washington has won 41-14, 45-17, 45-10, 31-13 and 27-17. Pretty amazing that not once has Washington State scored at least 20 points. This Huskies defense is one of the best in the country and I just don't think Minshew and that Cougars offense will be able to score enough to win this game. Bet Washington +3! |
|||||||
11-23-18 | George Mason +10 v. Cincinnati | 55-71 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 44 m | Show | |
15* G MASON/CINCINNATI CBB SHARP PLAY on George Mason +10 +102 My money is on the Patriots to cash in a cover here as a double-digit neutral site dog against the Bearcats. While Cincinnati comes in off a cover against Western Michigan, they are just 1-3 ATS on the season. I think the books have been a little high on them out of the gate and certainly feel like this is a few too many points for them to be laying against an experienced George Mason squad that brought back everyone from last year's team. Bet the Patriots +10! |
|||||||
11-23-18 | Louisville v. Marquette -3.5 | 74-77 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 24 m | Show | |
15* LOUISVILLE/MARQUETTE CBB SHARP PLAY on Marquette -3½ -109 My money is on the Golden Eagles to cash in an easy cover here as a short 3.5-point favorite against the Cardinals in Friday's final round action of the early season NIT Tournament. This is simply a rebuilding year for Louisville, but because they are such a brand name and have been so good for so long, the books will be slow to adjust on them, which means there will be value fading them early. They are just 1-2-1 ATS out of the gate and I think they are getting too much love against a good Marquette team. Bet the Golden Eagles -3.5! |
|||||||
11-23-18 | Marshall v. Maryland UNDER 162.5 | 67-104 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
15* MARSHALL/MARYLAND CBB SHARP PLAY on Marshall vs Maryland under 162½ +100 My money is on the UNDER 162.5 in Friday's college basketball action that has Maryland hosting Marshall. Terps have been a really strong UNDER play this season, as it's cashed in 4 of their 5 games. A big reason for that is their defense, which comes in holding opponents to just 39.5% shooting from the field. Marshall is team that likes to push the tempo, but this is a step up in competition. UNDER is 14-5 in Maryland's last 19 as a favorite and 13-4 in their last 17 home games when playing only their second game in a week. Bet the UNDER 162.5! |
|||||||
11-23-18 | Wolves v. Nets UNDER 220.5 | 112-102 | Win | 100 | 5 h 41 m | Show | |
15* WOLVES/NETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Wolves vs Nets under 220½ +100 My money is on the UNDER in Friday's early NBA action that has the Nets and Timberwolves tipping off at 12:00 EST. Not only are players likely not 100% invested in playing the day after Thanksgiving, but I can't see them wanting anything to do with this early start time. Minnesota will be on a plane back home as soon as this is over, as they got to host the Bulls tomorrow night and Brooklyn's not exactly a team to get up for. Defense has been a lot better for Minnesota since they traded Butler and the Nets offense struggled from the floor since losing LeVert. I think this one finishes close to 210. Bet the UNDER 220.5! |
|||||||
11-22-18 | Falcons +13 v. Saints | Top | 17-31 | Loss | -115 | 89 h 32 m | Show |
20* FALCONS/SAINTS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Falcons +13 -115 My money is on the Falcons to cash in as a big underdog against the Saints on Thanksgiving night. I just don't get this line at all. Atlanta was a 1.5-point home favorite agains New Orleans earlier this season and it was the Saints who needed to score late to force OT. I just think New Orleans is getting way too much respect for blowing out an Eagles team that simply hasn't been very good this year. Atlanta has shown they can hang with the Saints and there's just no way I'm passing up on this many points. Bet the Falcons +13! |
|||||||
11-22-18 | Colorado State v. Air Force -14.5 | 19-27 | Loss | -105 | 36 h 42 m | Show | |
15* COLORADO ST/AIR FORCE CFB SHARP PLAY on Air Force -14½ -105 My money is on Air Force to win and cover at home against the Rams. This will be the last game of the season for both of these teams, as neither will be bowl eligible. That's where I think you have to give a big edge here to the Falcons. Air Force is one of the last teams that is going to throw in the towel. They are going to compete no matter what. The same can't be said for Colorado State, who has lost 4 straight and off a crushing loss at home to Utah State, which I think to them was their Super Bowl. Look for Air Force to rack up the points and win here by at least 3 scores. Bet the Falcons -14.5! |
|||||||
11-21-18 | Virginia v. Middle Tennessee OVER 131.5 | 74-52 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 6 m | Show | |
15* VIRGINIA/MIDDLE TENN CBB SHARP PLAY on Virginia vs Middle Tennessee over 131½ +102 My money is on the OVER 131.5 in Wednesday's CBB action the that has Middle Tennessee facing off against Virginia. No surprise to see a low number on the total with Virginia involved, but this is too low. Middle Tennessee has some legit offensive fire-power. The Blue Raiders are averaging 85.5 ppg. They are also not good defensively, giving up 76 ppg and recently allowed 92 on the road to Belmont. OVER is 34-18 in Virginia's last 52 as a neutral court favorite. Bet the OVER 131.5 |
|||||||
11-21-18 | Suns +2 v. Bulls | 116-124 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 29 m | Show | |
15* SUNS/BULLS NBA SHARP PLAY on Suns +2 -110 My money is on the Suns to go into Chicago and get a win against the slumping Bulls. All of the injuries Chicago has had to deal with early on this season are really starting to take their toll. They come in having lost 4 straight and have been absolutely atrocious on the offensive side of the ball. Only once in their last 5 games have they shot better than 44%. Suns come in shooting 48.1% over their last 5 and I'll the hot team offensively in a matchup of bad teams. Bet Phoenix +2! |
|||||||
11-21-18 | Dartmouth +18.5 v. Buffalo | Top | 71-110 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 44 m | Show |
20* DARTMOUTH/BUFFALO CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Dartmouth +18½ +100 My money is on the Big Green to cash in an easy cover here on the road against the Bulls. Buffalo is just way overvalued after going on the road and beating West Virginia 99-94 as a 10.5-point dog and Southern Illinois 62-53 as a 4-point favorite. Dartmouth's only loss is at Davidson and they lost that by just 3-points as a 18.5-point dog. Big Green are 9-0 ATS last 9 road games after scoring 85 or more and Buffalo is 1-12 ATS last 13 at home with a total of 150-154.5! Bet Dartmouth +18.5! |
|||||||
11-21-18 | Wisconsin v. Stanford OVER 141 | 62-46 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 14 m | Show | |
15* WISCONSIN/STANFORD CBB SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin vs Stanford over 141 -105 My money is on the OVER 141 in today's college basketball clash between Stanford and Wisconsin. I just think the number here is a bit low. We just saw Stanford go on the road and give up 90 to UNC. Cardinal have scored 70+ in each of their 3 games and put up 72 on UNC, despite only 40% shooting. Wisconsin is known as a defensive program, but have scored 85 and 96 in two of their 3 games and had 77 on the road against Xavier. I see this a lot closer to 155 than 140. Bet the OVER 141! |
|||||||
11-21-18 | Utah State +5 v. Arizona State | 82-87 | Push | 0 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
15* UTAH ST/ARIZONA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Utah State +5 -110 My money is on the Aggies to cash in a winning ticket against the Sun Devils on Wednesday. Utah State has been an absolute covering machine to start out the 2018 season. The Aggies are 5-0 SU and 5-0 ATS. Last time out they rolled St Mary's by 17 as a 4-point dog. ASU is also off an upset win over Miss St, but the Sun Devils are just 9-24 ATS last 33 road games off an upset win, while Aggies are 9-2 ATS last 11 off a win by 10 or more points. Bet Utah State +5! |
|||||||
11-20-18 | Northern Illinois -5.5 v. Western Michigan | Top | 21-28 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 16 m | Show |
20* N ILLINOIS/W MICHIGAN CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois -5½ -110 My money is on the Huskies to cash in a win and cover against the Broncos in Tuesday's MAC action. I get Northern Illinois has no real incentive here with the MAC West title locked up. Sure they could just decide to not show up and focus everything on the MAC Championship Game next week. I just don't think you want to go into the biggest game of the year off back-to-back losses. I think they could out in the 1st half and try to put this game away and with how good they are defensively and how bad Western Michigan is defensively, they could be up 20+ by halftime. Bet Northern Illinois -5.5! |
|||||||
11-19-18 | Chiefs +3 v. Rams | Top | 51-54 | Push | 0 | 88 h 27 m | Show |
20* CHIEFS/RAMS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Chiefs +3 +105 My money is on the Chiefs to cash in a cover on the road against the Rams on Monday Night Football. I just think KC is the more complete team, especially with LA losing one of their top offensive weapons in Cooper Kupp. Everyone wants to talk about how bad the Chiefs defense is, but they have been getting better and better as the season progresses. As for the Rams, their defense has only gotten worse and I don't know that there's a defense out there that can slow down Mahomes and the Chiefs. Look for KC to really put an emphasis on stopping Gurley and allowing that pass rush to cause chaos for Goff and that Rams passing attack. Bet the Chiefs +3! |
|||||||
11-19-18 | Nuggets v. Bucks -5 | 98-104 | Win | 100 | 16 h 17 m | Show | |
15* NUGGETS/BUCKS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bucks -5 -110 My money is on the Bucks to cash in a win and cover here at home against the Nuggets. Denver has been on a complete free-fall since they started out 9-1. The Nuggets have lost 5 of their last 6 to fall to 10-6 and I just don't see them putting up much of a fight here against a really good Milwaukee team that has gone 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS on their home floor this season. Nuggets just 1-4 ATS last 5 on the road. Bet the Bucks -5! |
|||||||
11-19-18 | Auburn v. Xavier UNDER 157.5 | 88-79 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
15* AUBURN/XAVIER CBB SHARP PLAY on Auburn vs Xavier under 157½ +100 My money is on the UNDER 157.5 in Monday's big non-conference clash between Auburn and Xavier. The game is being played in Hawaii as part of the Maui Invitational. I just think it's hard for teams to shoot well in these neutral site games that are a long way from home. The game is being played at 10:30 AM in Hawaii and when the body clocks are off you don't perform up to your potential. Look for the defenses to shine here and for this one to stay well below the mark. Bet the UNDER 157.5! |
|||||||
11-19-18 | Cal-Irvine -9.5 v. Texas-San Antonio | 65-56 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
15* UC-IRVINE/UTSA CBB SHARP PLAY on Cal-Irvine -9½ -110 My money is on the Anteaters to cash in an easy win and cover against the Roadrunners. UTSA hasn't won a game this season and while two of those were against Big 12 foes in Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, they failed to cover both, losing by 20 as a 9.5-point dog to OU and by 22 as a 12.5-point dog to the Cowboys. UC-Irvine is 4-0 SU and a perfect 3-0 ATS. They won their last game by double-digits, despite shooting just 38% from the field. They had shot 50% or better in each of their first 3, so look for them to get back on track here and cruise to an easy win. Bet UC-Irvine -9.5! |
|||||||
11-18-18 | Washington v. Santa Clara +15.5 | 82-68 | Win | 100 | 16 h 12 m | Show | |
15* WASHINGTON/SANTA CLARA CBB SHARP PLAY on Santa Clara +15½ -105 My money is on the Broncos to cash in a cover here against Washington as a 15.5-point dog. San Clara couldn't have looked much worse in their first two games, losing by double-digits to both Prairie View A&M and UC-Irvin. Broncos shot horrible in both of those games and simply can't continue to be that bad from the field. Huskies got annihilated in their big test at Auburn and then barely held on to be San Diego by 3 as a 9.5-point home favorite. Look for Washington to struggle to pull away in this one. Bet Santa Clara +15.5! |
|||||||
11-18-18 | Blazers v. Wizards UNDER 224 | 119-109 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 17 m | Show | |
15* BLAZERS/WIZARDS NBA SHARP PLAY on Blazers vs Wizards under 224 -110 My money is on the UNDER 224 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Blazers visiting the Wizards. UNDER has been a very profitable bet in Portland games, as it's cashed in 6 of the last 7. UNDER is also a perfect 2-0 in Washington's last 2 games, as the books have really inflated their totals with how poor they were playing defensively early in the year. The fact that the total is 224 and these two combined for 249 with a total of 228 back on Oct. 22nd, tells you all you need to know about what the right side is. Bet the UNDER 224! |
|||||||
11-18-18 | Steelers v. Jaguars +6 | Top | 20-16 | Win | 100 | 81 h 12 m | Show |
20* STEELERS/JAGS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Jaguars +6 -105 My money is on the Jaguars to cash in an easy cover here at home against the Steelers. Pittsburgh is simply overvalued after winning 5 straight and Jacksonville couldn't be more undervalued after losing 5 straight. I loved how the Jaguars fought back last week against the Colts on the road and I expect an even bigger effort here at home with their season on the line. Jacksonville won both meetings last year against the Steelers and both of those were in Pittsburgh. Look for that defense to be the difference in this one. Bet the Jaguars +6! |
|||||||
11-18-18 | Wake Forest v. Valparaiso +1 | 69-63 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
15* WAKE FOREST/VALPO CBB SHARP PLAY on Valparaiso +1 -110 My money is on the Crusaders to cash in a winning ticket at basically a pick'em against the Demon Deacons in the final round of the Myrtle Beach Invitational. I just haven't been impressed with Wake Forest, who barely scraped by CS-Fullerton 66-59, as they shot a mere 33.9% from the field. Valpo on the other hand shout 50% in a win and cover against Monmouth. Deacons are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 vs a team that's won 60%-8% of their games and 5-14 ATS in their last 19 road games against strong defenses teams that are holding opponents to 42% or worse from the field. Bet Valparaiso +1! |
|||||||
11-17-18 | Hawks v. Pacers -11 | 89-97 | Loss | -111 | 15 h 13 m | Show | |
15* HAWKS/PACERS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pacers -11 -111 |
|||||||
11-17-18 | UAB v. Texas A&M -16 | 20-41 | Win | 100 | 87 h 8 m | Show | |
15* UAB/TEXAS A&M CFB SHARP PLAY on Texas A&M -16 -110 My money is on the Aggies to easily cover this spread at home against UAB. With this being the first year under Jimbo Fisher, I think there's still a lot of motivation to keep playing hard and we saw they are still motivated with last week's 38-24 win against Ole Miss. I think people see UAB at 9-1 and think this team can at least hang around and keep it close. I just don't think that will be the case. It reminds me a lot of late last year when they were a mere 10-point dog at Florida in the second to last week and lost 36-7. I think the Aggies are simply too talented and there's been enough talk about the potential for an upset that they will show up. That should be all it takes for them to win here by at least 20 points. Bet Texas A&M -16! |
|||||||
11-17-18 | Iowa -14 v. Illinois | Top | 63-0 | Win | 100 | 84 h 42 m | Show |
20* IOWA/ILLINOIS BIG TEN GAME OF THE YEAR on Iowa -14 -107 My money is on the Hawkeyes to easily cover here as a two touchdown favorite against the Fighting Illini. Iowa comes into this game having lost 3 straight to fall to 6-4 and completely out of the Big Ten race after that 6-1 start. The most recent game was a ugly 14-10 loss at home to Northwestern as a 11.5-point favorite. After that game no-one wants anything to do with Hawkeyes, but this is the ideal bounce back spot for this team, as there's a big difference from 8-4 and 6-6 or 7-5 when bowl selection comes. Keep in mind Iowa could easily be undefeated right now, as all their losses have come in the finale minutes of the 4th quarter. Illinois is making progress, but they just don't have the offensive fire-power against a defense like this to keep this game close. Illini have allowed 30+ in 5 straight, giving up 45 or more in 4 of those. Bet Iowa -14! |
|||||||
11-17-18 | Nevada v. San Jose State OVER 57.5 | 21-12 | Loss | -109 | 79 h 12 m | Show | |
15* NEVADA/SAN JOSE ST CFB SHARP PLAY on Nevada vs San Jose State over 57½ -109 My money is on the OVER 57.5 in Saturday's Mountain West clash between Nevada and San Jose State. I think Nevada is going to put up a huge number here and the Spartans will do enough on their home field to push this over the mark. Wolf Pack are averaging 33.8 ppg and have scored 40+ twice in their last 3 games, including 49 last time out against Colorado State. San Jose State just gave up 62 at Utah State and are allowing 43.8 ppg at home. They are also averaging 32.4 ppg at home and Nevada is allowing 37.7 ppg on the road. These two are going to get to 60 points no problem. Bet the OVER 57.5! |

15* SYRACUSE/NOTRE DAME CFB SHARP PLAY on Syracuse vs Notre Dame over 61 -109 My money is on the OVER 61 in Saturday's big showdown between No. 3 Notre Dame and No. 12 Syracuse. With Ian Book expected back for the Irish, I look for that offense to have their way here with a pretty mediocre Orange defense, especially with the game being played on their home field. ON the flip side of this, I think this Syracuse offense is one of the better units Notre Dame has faced, certainly in the last couple months. Orange have scored 40 or more in 4 straight and if you look at what Clemson's defense has done to the rest of the ACC, their 23 points against the Tigers in Clemson is pretty impressive. Notre Dame is not on that level. Bet the OVER 61! |

20* BOISE ST/N MEXICO MWC PLAY OF THE MONTH on New Mexico +21 -109 My money is on the Loboes to keep this thing close enough to cover. I fully expect Boise State to win the game, as they need a victory to keep their hopes alive of playing in the MWC Championship Game. However, coming off that big win over Fresno State and basically a playoff game against Utah State on deck (assuming they win), this is the definition of a trap game. Bet New Mexico +21! |

15* NIAGARA/WYOMING CBB SHARP PLAY on Wyoming -5½ -105 My money is on the Cowboys to cash in a win and cover at home against Niagara. Wyoming was able to right the ship and avoid an 0-3 start with a 86-78 win at home over Grambling. The Purple Eagles have covered their first two winning outright as a dog at home to St Bonaventure and covering at Loyola-Chicago. It has them getting a little too much respect here on the road against what will be a hungry Cowboys team. Bet Wyoming -5.5! |

11-16-18 | Jazz v. 76ers UNDER 216.5 | 107-113 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 17 m | Show | |
15* JAZZ/76ERS NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs 76ers under 216½ -110 My money is on the UNDER in Friday's NBA action that has the Jazz visiting the 76ers. The biggest thing here for me is I expect a big effort here from both sides. Philadelphia lost their first game with Jimmy Butler at Orlando and don't want this thing to turn into a story with them not being able to mesh. Utah on the other hand just got absolutely annihilated at Dallas 118-68. That's the kind of loss that you don't just shrug off. That's embarrassing and I expect them to come out with the energy and effort to make sure that doesn't happen again. With the offensive chemistry issues with Philadelphia right now, this should stay well below the mark. Bet the UNDER 216.5! |

15* UNI/PENNSYLVANIA CBB SHARP PLAY on Pennsylvania -2½ -110 My money is on the Quakers to take down Northern Iowa in the opening round of the Paradise Jam, which is played in the Virgin Islands. Penn has started out 3-0 and have covered the spread in all 3. They put 90+ points in their last 2 and have shot better than 50% from the field in all 3 games. UNI is offensively challenged. They shot just 39.3% from the field against UTSA in their last game and in that contest were a miserable 3 of 22 from deep. I think those woes continue here against a team that can light up the scoreboard. Bet the Quakers -2.5! |

15* FAU/NORTH TEXAS CFB SHARP PLAY on Florida Atlantic vs North Texas over 61½ -109 My money is on the Owls and Mean Green to easily eclipse the total for tonight's anticipated C-USA matchup. This is a rematch of last year's C-USA Championship Game and these are two teams that can light up the scoreboard. North Texas is averaging 37.2 ppg and 40.4 ppg at home, while FAU comes in giving up 37.8 ppg on the road. Owls are scoring 31.1 ppg and had 110 in the two meetings between these two teams last year. They also come in rolling having score 34 on WKU and 49 at FIU in their last 2 games. Bet the OVER 61.5! |

20* PACKERS/SEAHAWKS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Packers +3 -115 My money is on Aaron Rodgers and the Packers to cash in a winning ticket on Thursday Night Football. I'll take the 3-points in this one, but I fully expect Green Bay to win outright. Seattle is not as good as people think. They are just getting love for two close losses to the Rams. There's a reason they are 4-5 on the season and it's not bad luck. Rodgers is too good and will not let his team lose this one, as he goes for his 4th straight win over the Seahawks. Bet Green Bay +3! |

15* WARRIORS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Rockets -1½ -110 My money is on the Rockets to cash in at basically a pick'em at home against the Warriors. Golden State is a complete mess right now. Durant and Green are at each others throats and Curry is out with an injury. Houston is playing much better of late and you can count on a max effort here in a game they have had on their mind since losing Game 7 at home in last year's Western Conference Finals. Golden State is still the better team, but tonight the Rockets should dominate. Bet Houston -1.5! |

15* ALABAMA/NORTHEASTERN CBB SHARP PLAY on Alabama vs Northeastern under 144 -110 My money is on the UNDER 144 in Thursday's early afternoon clash on the college hardwood between Alabama and Northeastern. The UNDER has cashed in 22 of the Crimson Tide's last 32 non-conference games and is a dominant 12-4 in Alabama's last 16 after going OVER the total in each of their last 2. UNDER is also 20-9 in Northeastern's last 29 off a upset win as a road dog and 13-5 in their last 18 when playing on 5-6 days of rest. I look for both of these offenses to be out of sync here on a neutral court with an unusual start time. Bet the UNDER 144! |

15* COLORADO ST/MONTANA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Colorado State -11 -105 My money is on the Rams to cash in an easy cover here at home against Montana State. Colorado State is 2-0 and a team to watch out for in the Mountain West. They brought in Niko Medved to be their new head coach and all he last year was take Drake from 7 to 17 wins in his first year on the job. Rams just won by 25 as a mere 13.5-point favorite over Arkansas-Pine Bluff and now face a Montana State team that has lost by 30 to Utah State and 45 to Indiana (scored a whopping 35 points). Bet Colorado State -11! |

15* NIAGARA/LOYOLA-CHICAGO CBB SHARP PLAY on Niagara +14 -104 My money is on Niagara to cash in the cover against Loyola-Chicago. I just think the Ramblers are being asked to lay some big prices here after what they did last year in the NCAA Tournament. It's a lot different going from the underdog to the favorite and they definitely got a target on their back. Last time out they were ice-cold from the field and lost outright as a 8.5-point favorite to a Furman team that is picked middle of the pack in the Southern Conference. Niagara won 19 games last year and are expecting to contend for the MAAC title. Bet the Purple Eagles +14! |

15* BULLS/CELTICS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bulls vs Celtics under 210½ -102 My money is on the UNDER 210.5 in Wednesday's NBA action that has the Bulls listing the Celtics. Chicago just doesn't have the depth offensively with Portis, Dunn, Valentine and Markkanen all sidelined with injuries. Those are 4 of their best offensive players. Bulls have score fewer than 100 in 3 straight and will be facing a pissed off Celtics team that just finished up a road trip at 1-4, where they defense didn't play great. I could see them holding the Bulls to 85 or something like that. Chicago's defense has been decent, so I don't see Boston going off. Bet the UNDER 210.5! |

20* CBB SMALL CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE MONTH over 153½ -110 My money is on the OVER 153.5 in Tuesday's CBB action that has Northern Colorado hosting Pepperdine. Both these teams showed no mercy in their season openers. Pepperdine put up 100 on Cal Dominquez and Northern Colorado put up 126. The Bears attempted 47 3-pointers and made 23, so you get a pretty good idea of what style they prefer to play. I think both teams could hit 80 points in this one. Bet the OVER 153.5! |

20* HORNETS/CAVS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Hornets -6½ -109 My money is on the Hornets to easily cash in as 6.5-point favorites at Cleveland tonight. Charlotte already crushed the Cavs 32 earlier this season, putting up 126 points in the process. Cleveland has lost 5 straight and are right there with Atlanta for the worst team in the league. Not only is Kevin Love out, but George Hill, Sam Dekker, Cedi Osman and Kyle Korver are all sidelined for this one. Bet the Hornets -6.5! |

15* WISC-MILWAUKEE/FIU CBB SHARP PLAY on Wisc-Milwaukee vs Florida International under 137½ -110 My money is on the UNDER in Tuesday's CBB action that has Wisconsin-Milwaukee visiting FIU. Milwaukee is off a crushing 63-60 home loss to North Dakota and have seen the UNDER cash in 12 of their last 15 after playing their previous game at home. Milwaukee is also averaging 56.5 ppg and facing a FIU defense that has held their first 2 opponents to 35.1% and 26.2% from the field. FIU has scored 110 and 117 in those two wins, but the competition was inferior to say the least. Look for both teams to struggle offensively. Bet the UDNER 137.5! |

15* W MICHIGAN/BALL ST CFB SHARP PLAY on Western Michigan vs Ball State over 54½ -106 My money is on the OVER 54.5 in Tuesday's weeknight MAC football action that has Ball State hosting Western Michigan. The Cardinals have allowed at least 42 points in each of their last 3 games and the Broncos have given up 51 and 59 in their last two. I get these two offenses are both missing their starting quarterbacks, but this total is way to low for the talent defensively. Bet the OVER 54.5! |

20* GIANTS/49ERS MNF VEGAS SHARP TOP PLAY on 49ers -3 -115 My money is on the 49ers to cash in a win and cover laying only a field goal at home against the Giants. I'm just not buying that this is going to be the game that New York finally plays up to their potential. Until they get better talent on the offensive line and part ways with Eli Manning, this team is going to disappoint. I also think the 49ers might have found something special in Nick Mullens, who shined in his first NFL start. I get it was against the Raiders, but you can tell there's something there and that's why the 49ers are starting him again instead of going back to C.J. Beathard. Bet San Francisco -3! |

15* 76ERS/HEAT NBA SHARP PLAY on Heat -1 -110 My money is on Miami to come away with a win at home against the 76ers on Monday. Philadelphia made a huge splash this weekend, acquiring Jimmy Butler in a trade with the Timberwolves. That could make the 76ers the team to beat in the east, but it's going to take time for them to learn how to play with each other and he's not going to be available tonight. That leaves them shorthanded against Miami as they traded two key pieces in Robert Covington and Dario Saric. Bet the Heat -1! |

15* BOWLING GREEN/VCU CBB SHARP PLAY on Bowling Green +8 -110 My money is on the Falcons to cash in as a dog against VCU on Monday. I just think the Rams are getting too much respect here against a quality Bowling Green team that is fresh off an easy cover as a 18.5-point dog at St John's losing by a final score of 84-80. Falcons are capable of winning this one outright and might get a boost here if VCU's De'Riante Jenkins (questionable) isn't able to go. Falcons have covered 5 of 6 on the road and 8 out of their last 11 after covering last time out. Bet Bowling Green +8! |

15* TROY/PITTSBURGH CBB SHARP PLAY on Pittsburgh -5 -108 My money is on Pitt to cover the short number at home against the Trojans. The Panthers come into the season getting zero love after going 8-24 overall and 0-18 in the ACC. New head coach Jeff Capel saw several players transfer out after he was hired, but has still managed to put together a solid nucleus that while unlikely to compete in the ACC, should be able to handle teams like Troy at home. Talent is just as good as last year, but the coaching is much better. Bet Pittsburgh -5! |

15* NORTH TEXAS/HAWAII CBB SHARP PLAY on North Texas -1 -102 My money is on the Mean Green to cash in at basically a pick'em on the road against the Rainbow Warriors. North Texas is picked by many to finish in the top half of a strong C-USA, while Hawaii is picked near the bottom of the Big West. Warriors won at home last time out and are a mere 2-9 ATS in their last 11 off a home win. Mean Green have also covered 15 of their last 21 vs a team with a wining record. Bet North Texas -1! |

15* BUCKS/NUGGETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bucks vs Nuggets over 221½ -107 My money is on the OVER 221.5 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Bucks visiting the Nuggets. Both of these teams got off to a blazing 8-1 start, but each has stumbled of late and are now both at 9-3. Milwaukee comes in averaging 121.7 ppg and Denver is at 112.7 ppg at home and can light it up. They should here as the Bucks are giving up 113.5 ppg on the road. Just too much talent offensively to stay below the mark set by the books. Bet the OVER 221.5! |

20* PATRIOTS/TITANS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Titans +7 -110 My money is on the Titans to cash in as a touchdown underdog at home against the Patriots. No team is better at winning ugly than Tennessee, which also makes them a difficult team to back against the spread. It's why they continue to be undervalued and come in with a 5-2 ATS mark over their last 7 games. Patriots on the other hand are one of the biggest public plays on the board week in and week out. That won't change this Sunday, as NE comes in having covered 3 straight and 5 of their last 6. Pats won't have Gronkowski and have a number of other key guys banged up. Look for Tennessee to hang around and maybe even pull off the upset. Bet Titans +7! |

20* ULM/S ALABAMA SUN BELT PLAY OF THE MONTH on South Alabama +5½ +110 My money is on the Jaguars as a slim 5.5-point home dog to ULM. South Alabama has had about as tough a start as you could draw up to conference play in the Sun Belt. After winning their conference opener against Texas State they have had to play Appalachian State, Georgia Southern, Troy and Arkansas State. They are just 1-5 SU and 2-4 ATS in their last 6, which is why we are getting value here with them. Look for South Alabama to win this one outright. Bet the Jaguars +5.5! |

15* NEW MEXICO/AIR FORCE CFB SHARP PLAY on New Mexico vs Air Force under 56½ -105 My money is on the UNDER 56.6 in Saturday's MWC action that has Air Force hosting New Mexico. Both these teams love to run the football. The Falcons come in averaging 57 rush attempts per game and 241 ypg. The Lobos rush it an average of 43 times/game. On the flip side of this we have two defenses that have been pretty good at stopping the run. This should lead to a lot of long possessions and a lot lower-scoring game than the books are calling for. Bet the UNDER 56.5! |

11-10-18 | Knicks v. Raptors OVER 219 | 112-128 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
15* KNICK/RAPTORS NBA SHARP PLAY on Knicks vs Raptors over 219 -105 My money is on the OVER in Saturday's NBA action that has the Raptors hosting the Knicks. The books have struggled to set the total high enough in Toronto games this season, especially at home. OVER is 8-4 in Raptors 12 games so far with a 5-1 mark when they play in Toronto. They are averaging 118.8 ppg at home and the Knicks give up 110.3 ppg on the road. I think Toronto gets close to 120 here and NY manages to at worst eclipse the 100-point mark. Bet the OVER 219! |

15* TCU/W VIRGINIA CFB SHARP PLAY on TCU +12½ -110 My money is on the Horned Frogs to keep it closer than expected on the road against the Mountaineers. The pressure is mounting on West Virginia and that makes this a really dangerous game for the Mountaineers. TCU hasn't been playing well and it will be easy for West Virginia to look past them with what looks like much tougher opponents on deck with Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. As bad the Horned Frogs have looked, I got a lot of confidence in Gary Patterson getting everything he has out of his players and if the TCU defense shows up, they might pull of the upset. This will be the best defense that the Mountaineers have faced since Iowa State and that Cyclones defense basically shut them down. Either way, this should be low-scoring and that makes the points that much more valuable. Bet TCU +12.5! |

15* MARYLAND/INDIANS CFB SHARP PLAY on Maryland +1 -110 My money is on the Terps to cash in a win on the road against Indiana and turn a lot of turmoil into a positive with their 6 win to get to bowl eligibility. Not to mention the books are begging you to take the Hoosiers at less than a field goal favorite at home. Maryland doesn't have much of a passing attack and have really struggled against top tier defenses like they did last week with Michigan State. I just don't think Indiana is on that level, as the Hoosiers have allowed 30+ in each of their last 4 games including 38 last time out against a pretty average at best Minnesota offense. Bet Maryland +1! |

15* UC-IRVINE/TEXAS A&M CBB SHARP PLAY on Cal-Irvine +6 -110 My money is on the Anteaters to cover the 6-point spread and maybe even pull off the upset of the Aggies. I just think we are seeing Texas A&M opening up the season getting a little bit of love for what they were a year ago and not what they figure to be this season. The Aggies lost a ton of talent and size from last year's team and those big guys are why they went 22-13. I think it's a big rebuilding year for Texas A&M and worth a fade against a talented UC Irvine team that's expected to win the Big West. Bet the Anteaters +6! |

15* WIZARDS/MAGIC NBA SHARP PLAY on Wizards vs Magic under 218 -103 My money here is on the Wizards and Magic to stay below the total of 218. Washington's defense hasn't been very good this year. Through 10 games they are giving up 120.5 ppg and allowing teams to shoot 48% from the field. However, a lot of that is effort and we have seen some better showings of late. I think they bring the intensity on defense after an ugly 19-point loss at Dallas and Orlando is team that struggles to score no matter who they are paying. Magic are shooting 42.9% from the field and scoring just 101.3 ppg. Bet the UNDER 218! |

20* LOUISVILLE/SYRACUSE ACC PLAY OF THE MONTH on Syracuse -20 -109 My money is on the Orange to cash in an easy win and cover at home against Louisville. Syracuse comes in to this game averaging 43.3 ppg (46.8 ppg at home) and will be facing a Cardinals defense that just allowed 77 to Clemson in their last game and 56 the week before to Wake Forest. They also gave up 66 not that long ago at home to Georgia Tech. They lost all 3 of those by at least 21 points and I could see them losing by a lot more than that, as I think Syracuse is going to be out to get some revenge from the lopsided losses Lamar Jackson handed this Orange team the last two years. Bet Syracuse -20! |

15* S ILLINOIS/KENTUCKY CBB SHARP PLAY on Southern Illinois +18 -103 My money is on the Salukies to cash in an easy cover here against the Wildcats. This isn't just a play against Kentucky after how bad they looked against Duke. It's more about how talented this Southern Illinois team is and how much more this game will mean to them than it will the Wildcats. A lot of people just assume Loyola is going to win the Missouri Valley, but I wouldn't count out the Salukies. They have back all 5 starters from a 20-win team and while I don't think they win, I expect them to be around the 10-15 range. Bet Southern Illinois +18! |

15* CELTICS/SUNS NBA SHARP PLAY on Celtics vs Suns under 212 -110 My money is on the UNDER 212 in tonight's NBA action that has the Celtics visiting the Suns. Phoenix is coming off a game where they scored 82 points on 34.6% shooting at home against the Nets. There's just no chemistry with that offense and now they have to face a pissed off Boston team that is coming off back-to-back losses. While this is the Celtics third straight on the road, they have had the last two days off. Expect a bigger than normal effort here against an inferior opponent and for this to stay well below the total. Bet the UNDER 212! |

20* PANTHERS/STEELERS NFL SHARP TOP PLAY on Panthers +5 -110 My money is on the Panthers to cash in a cover here as a decently priced road dog against the Steelers. Pittsburgh appears to have righted the ship with 4 straight wins, but 3 of those came within their division and the other was against a Falcons team that has disappointed. I know the defensive numbers have been great the past few games, but I'm just not sold on that defense magically being fixed. I think Cam Newton and this efficient Carolina offense will expose them on a short week. I'll take the points as insurance, but I think the Panthers will win this one outright. Bet Carolina +5! |

15* WAKE FOREST/NC STATE CFB SHARP PLAY on NC State -18 -105 My money is on NC State to easily cash in a cover as a big home favorite against Wake Forest. Demons Deacons might have the worst defense in the ACC and that's not a good thing for them. The Wolfpack come in having scored 40+ in back-to-back games and you have to believe that senior quarterback Ryan Finley is going to want to put on a show in his final home game. Wake Forest lost starting QB Sam Hartman and are going with a redshirt sophomore who has next to no experience and will be forced to throw with how good the Wolfpack are against the run. Bet NC State -18 |

I just think UConn is getting way too much respect here against what should be a much-improved Morehead State team that brings back all 5 starers from last year and added in a couple of recruits that should help out right away. UConn's future is bright with the hire of Dan Hurley, but it's going to take take time and I think they struggle out of the gate here. Bet Morehead State +12! |

20* NBA NON-CONF PLAY OF THE MONTH on Pelicans -10 -105 My money is on the Pelicans to easily cash in a winner as a double-digit favorite against the Bulls. New Orleans is way better than their 4-6 record (lost all 5 on a tough road trip against Nuggets, Warriors, Blazers, Spurs and Thunder). I can't imagine how frustrated this team is. I think they give max effort here and there's nothing the Bulls will be able to do to stop it, much like an earlier game when they gave up 149 points (92 at half) to the Warriors. Bet Pelicans -10! |

15* TOLEDO/N ILLINOIS CFB SHARP PLAY on Toledo +3 +100 My money is on the Rockets to cover the 3-point spread against the Huskies. I just think this like begging you take Northern Illinois, as they are at home and have the better resume to this point. Defense can carry teams to a certain point, but good offenses can score against any defense. Toledo is averaging 41.2 ppg and nearly 6.3 yards/play. Northern Illinois is averaging 19.2 ppg and 4.2 yards/play. So much has to go right for the Huskies to win this game. Bet Toledo +3! |

15* MARSHALL/E KENTUCKY CBB SHARP PLAY on Marshall -8½ -104 My money is on the Thundering Herd to easily win here by double-digits. Marshall is a program on the rise under Dan D'Antoni. They run the a similar offense to the Rockets in the NBA (who his younger brother coaches). They got their two stud guards back from a team that won a game in the NCAA Tournament last year. They are going to be hungry to get back and do more. Bet Marshall -8.5! |

11-06-18 | Bucks v. Blazers +1 | 103-118 | Win | 100 | 18 h 17 m | Show | |
15* BUCKS/BLAZERS NBA SHARP PLAY on Blazers +1 -105 My money is on the Blazers to cash in a win and cover at home as a slim 1-point dog against the Bucks. Milwaukee comes in at 8-1 and are 6-3 ATS, including a 5-1 ATS mark over their last 6. I believe it has the Bucks way-overvalued here as a road favorite against a very good Blazers team. Portland comes in at 7-3, but are getting no love from the media and it has them playing with a chip on their shoulder. Milwaukee's strong start has been aided by the fact that 6 of their first 9 games were at home. They are just 1-2 ATS on the road. Bet Portland +1! |

15* SOUTH ALABAMA/AUBURN CBB SHARP PLAY on Auburn -19 -110 My money is on Auburn to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Jaguars. The Tigers are coming off a 26-8 season and are expected to be just as good this year with all the talent they have coming back Bruce Pearl is now in year 5 here and I expect him to keep this program near the top of the SEC for the foreseeable future. South Alabama simply doesn't have the talent to keep this one competitive. Bet the Tigers -19! |

15* SE MISSOURI STATE/ST LOUIS CBB SHARP PLAY on SE Missouri State +20½ -110 My money is on the Redhawks to cash in a cover as a big road dog against St. Louis. The Billikens are a popular pick to win the Atlantic 10 this this season and I think it has them way overvalued out of the gate. I like what Ricky Ray has been able to get out of his team at SE Missouri and expect the Redhawks to put up a nice fight here. Bet SE Missouri State +20.5! |

11-06-18 | Kent State +22.5 v. Buffalo | Top | 14-48 | Loss | -109 | 34 h 38 m | Show |
20* KENT ST/BUFFALO CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Kent State +22½ -109 My money is on the Golden Eagles to cash in as a massive 22.5-point underdog against the Bulls. Buffalo is simply way overvalued right now, as they are not only 8-1 SU on the season, but they have gone 7-2 ATS, covering each of their last 4. Kent State is not a team the public will be looking to back, but they have covered 3 of 4 and I believe are catching Buffalo in a great spot. The only thing in the way of the Bulls securing the MAC East title is a win next week at Ohio. Even a loss here and a win over the Bobcats and they are division champs. I'm not saying Buffalo will lose, I just think a less than 100% focused Bulls team will struggle to create the kind of separation needed to cover this big number. Bet Kent State +22.5! |

15* SIENA/PROVIDENCE CBB SHARP PLAY on Siena +19½ -110 My money is on the Saints to cash in a cover here as a big road dog against the Friars. Providence is always going to be a quality team with head coach Ed Cooley running the show, but I think we could see the Friars struggle a bit early after losing 3 starters, who were responsible for 34.9 of the 73.6 points/game they averaged. They bring back two quality players in Alpha Diallo and Emmitt Holt, but are going to be inexperienced at the points. Look for Sienna to hang around and keep this closer than expected. Bet the Saints +19.5! |

20* TITANS/COWBOYS MNF SHARP TOP PLAY on Titans +5½ -109 My money is on the Titans to cash in as a decently priced road dog against the Cowboys on Monday Night Football. No secret that Dallas is a big public team and the books know the public will be all over the Cowboys against this Titans team. As ugly as Tennessee can look at times, they just always seem to find a way to hang around and keep games close. All 3 of the Titans wins are by 3-points and 3 of their losses are by a touchdown or less, including 2 by a single-point. With not many points expected to be scored, the 5.5 is that much more valuable. Bet Titans +5.5! |

15* PELICANS/THUNDER NBA SHARP PLAY on Thunder -3½ -110 My money is on the Thunder to cash in as a small home favorite against the Pelicans on Monday. OKC got off to that miserable start, but have won 4 straight and I don't see them slowing down. New Orleans started out 4-0, but have lost 5 straight. A lot of the Pelicans struggles are injury related. They don't have anyone that can impact the game like Elfrid Payton, who is out again. Not to mention Anthony Davis doesn't look 100% and he's got to play at an MVP level for this team to win on the road against a top tier team like OKC. Bet the Thunder -3.5! |

15* MAGIC/SPURS NBA SHARP PLAY on Magic vs Spurs under 209 -115 My money is on the UNDER 209 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Spurs hosting the Magic. San Antonio ranks in the top half of the league in defensive efficiency and always seem to bring a little more on that side of the ball at home. Spurs are also not one of the teams looking to play at a frantic pace, as they rank 27th in pace early on. Orlando is middle of the pack in pace, but are the least efficient offense in the league and it's not really close. They average 96.8 points/100 possessions and the next worst is the Suns at 100. Bet the UNDER 209! |

25* NFL NON-CONFERENCE GAME OF THE YEAR on Bills +10 -105 My money is on the Bills to cash in as a 10-point dog against the Bears. The books have completely jacked this line knowing the public will not take Buffalo. I like Chicago, but let's keep in mind the Patriots were a 13.5-point favorite at Buffalo last week. Chicago is not on Tom Brady and Bill Belichick status. Bears offense is still a work in progress and the defense won have All-Pro Khalil Mack to disrupt the other teams offense. Look for the Bills to keep it closer than expected. Bet Buffalo +10! |

15* UTAH ST/HAWAII CFB SHARP PLAY on Hawaii +19 -110 My money is on Hawaii to cash in an easy cover as a 19-point home dog to Utah State. The Aggies have surprised a lot of people by going 7-1 to start the year and a good chunk of the betting public has been riding this team week after week, as they are also 7-1 ATS. It's to that point in the season where you want to start thinking about jumping off the teams that have been cover machines. I think that spot is right now for Utah State. I'm not saying they don't win, but Hawaii has the offense to make a game of it and a lot of teams struggle to play up to their potential when they have to travel to Hawaii (time difference). Bet the Rainbow Warriors +19! |

20* PENN ST/MICHIGAN CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Michigan -10 -110 My money is on Michigan -10 at home against Penn State. The Nittany Lions are off a lucky win over Iowa and a hard fought win at Indiana. This team is fortunate to have not lost 4 straight and I think the number here wouldn't seem so far off if they had. Penn State just doesn't have a ton left to play for, as they came into this season with some lofty expectations. Michigan has the Big Ten title and playoff spot staring them in the face. Wolverines are off a bye and will be 100% ready to in this one. They have got revenge in their last two against Wisconsin and Michigan State in blowout fashion and will do the same here. Bet Michigan -10! |

15* TULANE/S FLORIDA CFB SHARP PLAY on Tulane +7½ -115 My money is on the Green Wave as a 7.5-point dog in Saturday's AAC action that has them visiting South Florida. I wasn't surprised to see USF lose the way they did to Houston last week. This team's 7-0 start was a joke. They hadn't played anybody and were very fortunate against bad teams. I don't think they are just going to bounce back from the loss to the Cougars. I think if anything they struggle to get up after that poor showing as they have to come to grips with the fact that they aren't as good as they thought. Bet Tulane +7.5! |

15* LIBERTY/UMASS CFB SHARP PLAY on Liberty +3 -120 My money is on Liberty to cash in a winning ticket as a 3-point dog to UMass. the Flames have been a can't miss story in college football and I think they keep the magical first season as a FBS-member going with another upset win. This time taking down the Minutemen. UMass snuck out a 5-point win over UConn, which tells you how bad they are, because the Huskies are atrocious. Bet Liberty! |

15* IOWA/PURDUE CFB SHARP PLAY on Iowa vs Purdue under 51½ -110 My money is on the UNDER 51.5 in Saturday's Big Ten action that has Purdue hosting Iowa. I know these two offenses have both had some high-scoring outputs, but I just think both are going to really bring the intensity off losses last week. Iowa has the goods defensively to slow down any team in the country. The Hawkeyes offense has been hit or miss, but I think they struggle to get going on the road, especially with Stanley either not playing or playing at less than 100%. Bet the UNDER 51.5! |

11-02-18 | Pacers v. Bulls UNDER 215 | 107-105 | Win | 100 | 16 h 17 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers vs Bulls under 215 -105 My money is on the Bulls/Pacers to stay well UNDER the mark of 215 set by the books. No team plays at a slower pace than Indiana and the Bulls aren't exactly pushing the tempo early on with all the injuries they are dealing with. When Chicago has showed up ready to play the defense has been solid and you have to think they will be motivated at home against a division rival. Indiana not only plays slow, but they are also a great defensive team. They should be able to hold this depleted Bulls lineup in check. Bet the UNDER 215! |

20* PITT/VIRGINIA ACC TOTAL OF THE MONTH on Pittsburgh vs Virginia over 48 -105 My money is on the OVER 48 in Friday's ACC action that has Virginia hosting Pittsburgh. I know Virginia has a great defense, but it just doesn't take a lot for a college game to see 49 points. Pittsburgh just gave up 45 at home to Duke in their last game, so it's not out of the question that Virginia could eclipse this total on their own. Bet the OVER 48! |

15* RAIDERS/49ERS NFL SHARP PLAY on Raiders vs 49ers under 47½ -110 My money is on the UNDER 47.5 in tonight's Thursday Night Football matchup between the Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers. I think the whole 'Battle of the Bay' does add a little something extra to this game. I know both defense haven't been great, but both of these are down to scraps offensively. San Francisco may be without C.J. Beathard here and have to turn to a guy that hasn't played a real NFL snap. Oakland just traded away wide out Amari Cooper and Marshawn Lynch is out with an injury. I just think this will be a sloppy game with neither team being able to sustain drives. Bet the UNDER 47.5! |

15* THUNDER/HORNETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Thunder vs Hornets under 227 -103 My money is on the UNDER 227 in tonight's NBA action that has Charlotte hosting Oklahoma City. Both these teams are playing well and I just think both are going to bring the defensive intensity in this one to try and make sure they get a win. OKC has held each of their last 3 opponents to 110 or less and Charlotte hasn't allowed more than 113 in 4 straight. If both just keep doing what they have been doing, we cash an easy winner. Bet the UNDER 227! |

20* OHIO/W MICH MAC GAME OF THE MONTH on Ohio +2½ -110 My money is on the Bobcats to cash in a win on the road over Western Michigan. The Broncos are coming off a 51-24 loss at home to Toledo and in the process lost their starting quarterback. I just don't see them being able to compete without Wassink. Ohio has won 4 of their last 5 with the only loss by 3-points at N. Illinois. They have rushed for over 800 yards in their last 2 games and Western Michigan is giving up 4.7 yards/carry. Bet the Bobcats +2.5! |

15* NUGGETS/BULLS NBA SHARP PLAY on Nuggets vs Bulls under 226½ -115 My money is on the UNDER 226.5 in tonight's NBA action that has the Bulls hosting the Nuggets. Chicago just gave up 149 points (92 at the half) to the Warriors in their last game and that's one that has to sting a little. I expect the Bulls to come out with an emphasis here on the defensive side of the ball. Tough spot for Denver to get excited about what figures to be an easy win and I think they struggle to get the offense going. As for Chicago's offense, they are going to have hard time getting going with all the key guys they have out. The only reason they put up 124 against Golden State, is because the game was over at the half and the Warriors quit playing defense. I think this one stays closer and the Bulls struggle to get to 100. Bet the UNDER 226.5! |

20* BALL ST/TOLEDO CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Ball State +18½ -105 My money is on the Cardinals to keep it close enough to cover the big spread on the road against the Rockets. I just think we are getting a great price here on Ball State, as the books have completely over-adjusted this line with the Cardinals losing starting quarterback Riley Neal. I look for Ball State to come out with a chip on their shoulder and catch Toledo potentially looking past this game off the big win against Western Michigan and an even bigger game on deck at Northern Illinois. Cardinals have covered 13 of their last 17 road games after failing to cover 3 of their previous 4. Bet Ball State +18.5! |
