Sports Picks & Predictions

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Kansas Jayhawks minus the points over West Virginia.  The Mountaineers have covered five straight.  But we'll fade them today, as Kansas is 55-28 ATS when favored by 3.5 to 13.5 points vs. foes on a 3-game (or better) ATS win streak.  Take the Jayhawks.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2:30 pm, our selection is on the Providence Friars + the points over Connecticut.  The Friars come into this game off back to back upset losses to Xavier and Seton Hall.  We'll look for Ed Cooley's men to bounce back this afternoon, as they're 25-11 ATS as an underdog, including 10-0 ATS when playing with revenge.  Take Providence.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2:30 pm, our selection is on the Duke Blue Devils minus the points over Pitt.  The Blue Devils upset North Carolina last Saturday, 62-57.  We'll lay the points with Duke this afternoon, as it's 23-12 ATS in the post-season off an ATS win.  And it's also 7-3 ATS in the ACC Tourney when not favored by 9+ points.  Take the Blue Devils.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Mississippi St minus the points over Florida.  The Bulldogs were edged by 2 points at home by Florida in the season's lone meeting.  We'll take the revenge-minded Bulldogs this afternoon, as they're 50-22 ATS when playing with revenge from an upset loss, including 14-1 ATS when favored by less than 5 points.  Take Miss State

At 12:30 pm, our selection is on the Baylor Bears minus the points over Iowa St.  This is a rematch of a game played five days ago, won by the Cyclones, 73-58.  We'll take Baylor today, as it's 14-5 ATS when it lost the previous meeting by double-digits.  Lay the points.

At 11:30 pm, our selection is on the Montana St. Bobcats minus the points over Northern Arizona.  The Lumberjacks come into this championship game off back to back upset wins over Eastern Washington and Montana.  We'll take the Bobcats to end Northern Arizona's streak, as Montana St. has won each of the last 9 meetings vs. the Lumberjacks.  Additionally, favorites have covered 72% in the Big Sky tournament the past 10 years vs. foes off an upset win.  Take Montana St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9:30 pm, our selection is on the Texas Southern Tigers + the points over Alcorn St.  The Braves are 3-10-2 ATS their last 15 Southwestern Athletic Conference tourney games, while the Tigers are 18-3-2 ATS their last 23 post-season contests.  Take Texas Southern.

At 9:30 pm, our selection is on the Rice Owls minus the points over Texas-San Antonio.  The Owls come into this game on a 4-game SU/ATS losing streak, and will seek to avenge a 5-point loss to the Roadrunners last month.  We'll take Rice, as Conference USA teams have cashed 70.8% in the tournament when playing with revenge, if they were off back to back SU/ATS losses.  Lay the points with Rice.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Georgetown Hoyas + the points over Villanova.  The Hoyas surrendered 99 points to Creighton in their final regular season game, and lost by 40 points, 99-59.  We'll take Patrick Ewing's men to bounce back, as Big East teams have gone 26-8 ATS off a loss by 30+ points.  Take Georgetown.

At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Detroit Red Wings over the Chicago Blackhawks.  The 'Hawks shut out Ottawa, 5-0, on Monday.  We'll fade the Blackhawks tonight, as they've gone 1-7 off a shutout win, and 3-14 off a win by more than 2 goals (and 0-6 off a win by more than 3 goals).  Meanwhile, Detroit's 8-4 (+10.0 net games on the moneyline) after scoring 1 goal or less in their two previous games.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Duquesne Dukes minus the points over La Salle.  Duquesne was "Pk'em" in its last regular season game, at Fordham, and lost, 87-60, so it will look to bounce back this evening vs. La Salle.  Meanwhile, the Explorers pulled off an upset last night, 73-56, vs. Rhode Island.  We'll take Duquesne tonight, as Atlantic 10 tourney favorites have gone 9-1 ATS off a loss as a PK/favorite, if they were playing an opponent off an upset win.  Take Duquesne minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie

At 7:00 pm, our selection is on the Ole Miss Rebels minus the points over South Carolina.  The Rebels lost, 64-61, in the previous meeting.  And they're also off back to back losses to Texas A&M and Missouri to end their regular season.  We'll take Mississippi to avenge that 3-point loss to the Gamecocks, as revenge-minded favorites off back to back losses have gone 9-1 ATS in the SEC Tournament.  Take Ole Miss.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers over Texas-El Paso.  The Hilltoppers managed to score just 33 points in their final regular season game.  We'll take Western Kentucky to bounce back tonight, as NCAA teams have covered 63.8% since 1990 after scoring less than 35 points in their previous game, provided they weren't getting 10+ points in their current game.  Take the Hilltoppers.

At 11 pm, our selection is on the Montana St. Bobcats minus the points over Weber St.  The Bobcats were upset, 73-63, as a 4-point favorite in the previous meeting by the Wildcats.  We'll lay the points tonight, as revenge-minded favorites of -5+ points have covered 59% in the post-season since 1990 if they were upset by 10+ points as a 4-point (or greater) favorite in the previous meeting.  Take Montana St.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Colorado Avalanche minus 1.5 goals over the San Jose Sharks.  The Sharks will be going for their second big road upset in a row tonight after knocking of the Jets in Winnipeg on Monday, 3-2, in overtime.  This, despite being completely out-played and out-shot by a lopsided 46 to 24 margin.  But doing that in Winnipeg against the struggling Jets (now 3-11 in their last 14) and doing it in Colorado against the defending Cup champions are two very different things.  Sure, the Avs have lost three straight, but those have come against the likes of the Kraken, Stars and Devils.  So, they will no doubt look forward to stepping down in class tonight to take on the 18-33-12 Sharks -- a team they've dominated recently.  The Sharks are just 1-7 in the last eight meetings with the Avs and 5-16 in the last 21 here in Denver.  And even if it weren't the Avs they were facing, this is not a situation that does the Sharks any favors are they are 16-35 in their last 51 games playing without rest.  Finally, the favorite is 40-12 in the last 52 meetings of these two clubs.  Take Colorado minus 1.5 goals.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles minus the points over North Dakota St.  The Bison lost the 2 regular season meetings vs. the Golden Eagles.  But that was no different than any Summit League team, as Oral Roberts was undefeated in league play this season.  Overall, the Golden Eagles have won 16 straight games.  We'll lay the points tonight, as ORU is 17-8 ATS as a favorite of less than 12 points, while North Dakota St. is 10-17 ATS as an underdog of less than 12 points.  Take the Golden Eagles.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners minus the points over Cal State Northridge.  The Roadrunners have covered 7 of their last 11 games, including its final regular season game this past Saturday, while Northridge is 5-6 ATS its last 11.  Even worse:  the Matadors are a horrid 5-23 ATS their last 28 Big West conference games when installed as an underdog of less than 13 points, including 0-12 ATS vs. a foe off a point spread win.  With Bakersfield in off an ATS win at Cal Irvine on Saturday, we'll lay the points with the Roadrunners on Tuesday night.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Northwestern St. Demons minus the points over New Orleans.  The Privateers upset SE Louisiana, 82-78, as a 5.5-point underdog last night.  New Orleans is an underdog again tonight, and we'll fade New Orleans, as Southland Conference tourney underdogs have covered just 35.7% off an upset win.  Take Northwestern St.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Merrimack Warriors minus the points over Fairleigh-Dickinson.  We played on FDU in its last game, and were rewarded with a 20-point blowout win over St. Francis (PA).  But that game was in Hackensack, NJ; tonight's game is in North Andover, MA.  And FDU has won just once in its last five meetings at Merrimack (2-3 ATS), with its average margin of victory -6.4 ppg.  Admittedly, the Knights won both regular season meetings this year.  But double-revenging favorites have cashed 63% in the tourneys since 1990 vs. foes off a win by 14+ points.  Take Merrimack.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Charleston College Cougars minus the points over NC Wilmington.  We played on the Seahawks last night as our Colonial Athletic Ass'n Tourney Game of the Year, and were rewarded with an outright win over #1-seeded Hofstra.  But off that upset win, we'll fade Wilmington tonight, as single-digit underdogs have gone 13-30 ATS in the Colonial Athletic tourney off an upset win.  Take Charleston minus the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish + the points over Virginia Tech.  The Hokies come into this ACC tourney off a blowout win, 82-60, over Florida St.  Meanwhile, the Irish were blown out, 87-64, by Clemson, on Saturday.  We'll grab the points with Notre Dame, as ACC teams off a loss by 15+ points have covered 66% in the post-season since 1990 vs. foes off a win by 15+ points.  Take Notre Dame.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Texas A&M Corpus Christi Islanders minus the points over McNeese St.  The Cowboys upset Nicholls St., 77-71, last night.  And that was McNeese's 2nd straight upset win.  Unfortunately, the Cowboys now have to take on the #1-seeded Islanders tonight.  And Corpus Christi already defeated McNeese twice in the regular season.  In the Conference Tourneys, since 1992, double-revenge-minded teams off back to back upset wins have covered just 39% vs. #1-seeded foes since 1992.  Take Corpus Christi.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Abilene Christian Wildcats minus the points over California Baptist.  The Wildcats have dropped their last 5 games -- both SU and ATS.  Indeed, they haven't won since facing this same Cal Baptist squad back on February 4.  Abilene won that game in blowout fashion, 87-71, as a 4.5-point road underdog.  And they also won the only meeting last season, 77-68, as an 8-point home favorite.  The tariff is lower here this afternoon, and I think they'll cover the shorter number.  Abilene is a solid 31-14 ATS as a favorite of 14 or less points, including 5-1 ATS when the line is 2 points or less.  Meanwhile, the Lancers are 2-9 ATS their last 11 when the point spread was 3 points or less.  And they're 4-10 ATS their last 14 when playing with revenge.  Take Abilene Christian minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9:30 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland St. Vikings minus the points over Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  The Panthers were 15-3 SU and 9-5-1 ATS at home this season, and they covered the spread by 5.1 ppg in those lined home games.  But away from home, the Panthers were 6-7 SU/ATS, and failed to cover the spread by 1.46 ppg.  And as underdogs of less than 5 points, they were 0-3 SU/ATS away from home, and lost by an average of 16.3 ppg.  Take the Vikings minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the St Mary's Gaels minus the points over BYU.  The Cougars are a dreadful 16-42 ATS as an underdog at home, or on neutral courts.  That doesn't bode well for BYU tonight.  Nor does the fact that West Coast Conference tourney favorites of less than 13 points have gone 87-55 ATS.  Take St. Mary's minus the points.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Charleston College Cougars minus the points over Towson.  The Cougars roll into this semifinal game on an 8-game win streak, including back to back blowout wins of 22 and 40 points.  Charleston has a solid 37-24 ATS record in the post season, while Towson is riding a 2-12 ATS record in the post-season.  And the Tigers have lost six straight semi-final matchups.  Lay the points with Charleston.

At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Edmonton Oilers over the Buffalo Sabres.  It was a busy deadline season for the Oilers who pulled off three fairly major deals between Tuesday and Thursday.  On paper Edmonton improved its blue line with the acquisition of Mattias Ekholm from the Predators although you wouldn't know it based on Saturday's 7-5 loss at the hands of the Jets.  The Oilers look to bounce back from that one tonight in Buffalo against a Sabres team which has won five of its last six.  Jack Campbell faltered badly in goal once again in that Winnipeg loss so expect Stuart Skinner to be in net tonight for this one.  Although Campbell started the season as the #1 Edmonton netminder, Skinner is the #1 right now with Campbell having assumed the role of back-up.  Indeed, the Oilers have lost each of Campbell's last 5 starts, while the 24-year-old Skinner has been impressive recently with a 2-0 record and 2.51 GAA in his two starts this month.  And the Oilers are 4-1 in his last five starts, with the only loss to the other-worldly Boston Bruins.  The Oilers are 11-4 in their last 15 games vs. teams from the Atlantic Division and they're 40-17 in their last 57 after allowing five or more goals in their previous game.  Take Edmonton.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana-Lafayette Rajin Cajuns over South Alabama.  The 8th-seeded Jaguars upset James Madison on Sunday to advance to the Sun Belt Championship game.  We'll fade South Alabama on Monday, as teams off upset wins in the Sun Belt Semi-Finals have gone 2-10 ATS vs. foes not off an upset win.  Take the Cajuns.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the NC Wilmington Seahawks + the points over Hofstra.  The Pride have won 12 straight games entering this semi-final matchup vs. the Seahawks.  And they won their quarterfinal game by 48 points vs William & Mary, 94-46, as a 14.5-point favorite.  But off that blowout win, we will fade the Pride, as NCAA favorites have covered just 20% in the semifinal round of the Conference Tourneys since 1990 off a game where they covered by 30+ points.  Additionally, Wilmington is 41-23-6 ATS in the post-season, including 5-0 ATS its last five.  Take NC Wilmington.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Nicholls St Colonels minus the points over McNeese St.  The Cowboys come into this quarterfinal game off an upset win over Texas A&M Commerce yesterday.  Unfortunately, in the Southland Conference Tourney, underdogs off an upset tourney win have covered just 30.7%.  Take Nicholls St. to blow out the Cowboys.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics minus the points over the New York Knicks.  Six days ago, the Knicks upset Boston, 109-94, as a 2-point underdog.  And that was the 2nd straight upset win by New York in this series.  We'll lay the points with Boston this evening, as the Celtics are a solid 58-24-1 ATS when playing with double-revenge from two losses earlier in the season, if they failed to cover the spread by 10+ points in the previous meeting.  Take Boston.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Eastern Washington Eagles minus the points over Northern Arizona.  The Eagles come into this game off back to back upset losses.  But before their 2-game losing streak, they had won 18 straight.  And they had also gone 17-3-1 ATS in their previous 21 games.  We'll take the Eagles to get back on the winning track tonight, as they're 11-0 SU and 10-1 ATS when favored by 4+ points in the post season against a foe off a SU win.  Take Eastern Washington.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:00 pm, our selection is on the St Thomas Tommies minus the points over Western Illinois.  The Tommies are favored in this quarterfinal game, and they're an awesome 16-2 ATS their last 18 as a favorite.  That bodes well for St. Thomas this evening.  As does the fact that the Leathernecks are 56-87 ATS off a conference loss.  Lay the points with St. Thomas.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the James Madison Dukes over South Alabama.  The Jaguars are 16-27 ATS their last 43 post-season games, while the Dukes are 11-6 ATS in the post-season.  And in the Sun Belt tourney, underdogs off back to back covers as a dog, have gone 6-16 ATS.  Take the Dukes minus the points.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Liberty Flames minus the points over Kennesaw St.  These two teams met here, on Kennesaw's campus, last month in a battle for 1st place.  The Owls were down by 11 points with 7:35 to play, but stormed back with a 29-11 run to close the game, and win, 88-81.  We'll take Liberty in this Championship game, as it's 8-2 ATS as a revenge-minded favorite.  And the road team has gone 7-2 ATS in the Atlantic Sun Conference title game when it wasn't getting 11+ points.  Take Liberty.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2:30 pm, our selection is on the NC Wilmington Seahawks minus the points over Drexel.  The Dragons lost the lone meeting vs. the Seahawks this season, 72-71.  Drexel is a dismal 15-25 ATS in the post season, including 1-5-1 ATS if it lost each of the season's previous meetings to its opponent.  Meanwhile, the Seahawks are 40-23-6 ATS in the post season, including 20-9-2 ATS its last 31 as a favorite.  Take NC Wilmington.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Iowa Hawkeyes minus the points over Nebraska.  The 'Huskers upset Iowa, 66-50, earlier this season.  We'll take Iowa this afternoon, as it's 13-1 ATS at home when playing with revenge from an upset loss.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Memphis Tigers + the points over Houston.  The Tigers look to avenge a 72-64 loss at Houston two weeks ago.  I think they'll get it, as they're 61-36 ATS when playing with revenge from a road loss, including 27-10 ATS off back to back wins when matched up against a conference foe.  Take the home underdog Tigers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Calgary Flames over Minnesota.  The Wild won on the road vs. Vancouver on Thursday.  But Minnesota is a poor 7-15 (minus 11.9 net games) on the road off a road win.  Take Calgary.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Utah State Aggies minus the points over Boise St.  Utah State has long had one of the better home courts, and it's 176-133 ATS as a home favorite (or PK).  We'll lay the points with the revenge-minded Aggies tonight, as they're on a 4-game SU/ATS win streak, and also 37-21 ATS off a win.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Northeastern Huskies + the points over Delaware.  The Huskies were a 6-point ROAD underdog, and lost by just 3 at Delaware earlier this season.  Now, the number is similar for this neutral court game.  The value is on the side of the Huskies, and we'll grab the points with the underdog.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets minus the points over San Antonio.  The Rockets have lost 11 straight.  But they were underdogs in all 11 of those games.  Now, they get to play a team (the ONLY team) which is worse than themselves.  And Houston plays with revenge from 2 losses to the Spurs earlier this season.  We'll take the Rockets as at San Antone, as the Spurs are 24-37 ATS this season as an underdog.  And the Rockets also fall into a 57% ATS revenge system of mine.  Take Houston.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Fairleigh Dickinson Knights minus the points over St Francis (PA).  The Knights lost on the road just nine days ago to the Red Flash, 82-72, and will seek to avenge that defeat here, at home, tonight.  We'll lay the points, as FDU falls into a 90-48 ATS system of mine which plays on certain home teams in tourney games.  Additionally, the Red Flash are a horrible 13-26 ATS away from home, including 0-6 ATS off a double-digit conference win.  Take Fairleigh Dickinson.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs + the points over Florida Atlantic.  The Owls have had a great season, with a 27-3 record.  But this point spread is inflated after the Owls won their last three games by 40, 26 and 29 points.  The Owls are now laying double digits on the road vs. a team they only beat by 5 points at home (as an 11-point favorite) three weeks ago.  It's too big of a tariff, and especially against a foe which is 82-56 its last 138 when playing with revenge from a road loss.  Take the Bulldogs.

At 6:05 pm, our selection is on the Florida Panthers over Pittsburgh.  The Penguins won, 5-4, in overtime vs. the Lightning, on Thursday.  We'll fade the Pens at Florida, as Pittsburgh is a soft 14-23 on the road (minus 16.8 net games) after scoring 4+ goals.  Take Florida.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Marshall Thundering Herd over Texas St.  The Herd had their 5-game win streak snapped at Old Dominion last week, when the Monarchs upset them, as a 2.5-point dog.  Marshall is 8-2 ATS off a point spread loss, and I look for it to blow out the Bobcats.  Lay the points.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Samford Bulldogs minus the points over Chattanooga.  The Bulldogs lost at home, 93-79, to Furman to end the regular season.  We'll take Samford to bounce back off that defeat, as Chattanooga has covered just 16% in the post season since 1991 off an ATS win when matched up against a foe off an ATS loss.  And Samford also falls into a 250-160 ATS tourney system of mine which plays on certain teams off losses.  Lay the points.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 5:10 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Raptors minus the points over the Washington Wizards.  These 2 teams met two nights ago in this building, and the Wizards were victorious, 119-108.  We'll lay the points with Toronto, as it falls into a 118-79 ATS 'right-back revenge' angle of mine which plays on certain teams in the 2nd of back to back meetings.  Take Toronto.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Texas Longhorns minus the points over Kansas.  The Jayhawks have won 7 straight, but are 3-10 ATS their last 13 after winning 4+ games.  Texas fell by 8 points in Lawrence, in February.  And Texas falls into a 185-124 ATS revenge system of mine.  Lay the points with the Longhorns.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the UMass-Lowell River Hawks minus the points over Maine.  UMass Lowell is on a 4-game SU/ATS win streak, and has won/covered 7 of 8.  For the season, the River Hawks are 7-1 ATS at home vs. conference foes.  Lay it.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Troy Trojans over James Madison.   Troy's won 7 of 8 games, and will look to avenge a 2-point loss to the Dukes earlier this season.  The Trojans fall into a 27-4 ATS revenge system of mine.  Grab the points with Troy.

At 2:30 pm, our selection is on the Boston College Eagles minus the points over Georgia Tech.  The Eagles are playing this home game -- their final one of the season -- with a lot of momentum, as they're riding a 3-game SU/ATS win streak, in which they won all 3 games outright as underdogs.  Look for Boston College to stay hot, as it falls into an 88-36 ATS 'momentum' system of mine.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Louisville Cardinals + the points over Virginia.  The Cardinals have largely been horrible this season.  But they were competitive in defeat when these two teams met in Louisville in February, as they only lost by 3.  And the Cardinals have covered 6 of their last 9, while UVa is 1-4 ATS its last 5.  Take Louisville + the points.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Texas A/M Aggies minus the points over Alabama.  The Crimson Tide come into this game on a 3-game ATS losing streak, while A&M is smoking hot right now 'in Vegas' with a 7-1 ATS run coming into this, its Final Home Game.  Take Texas A&M to get the $$$ in this early game on Saturday afternoon, as Bama is a wallet breaking 43-72 ATS as a road underdog of +6 or less points (or PK).  And it's 25-56 ATS off a home win in which it failed to cover the spread.  Take Texas A/M.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Iowa St Cyclones + the points over Baylor.  The Cyclones are 89-56 ATS off back to back ATS losses.  With ISU in on a 4-game SU/ATS losing streak, we'll take the points with the Cyclones.

At Noon, our selection is on Elon over William & Mary.  The Phoenix play this game with revenge from a 13-point loss to the Tribe just nine days ago.  And Elon falls into a 64% ATS angle of mine which plays on certain teams off back to back blowout losses, as well as a 246-174 ATS revenge system of mine.  Grab the points with the Phoenix

At 11:30 pm, our selection is on the San Francisco Dons minus the points over Pacific.  West Coast Conference tournament favorites of less than 13 points have gone 84-54-6 ATS.  That bodes well for San Francisco tonight.  As does the fact that Pacific is 9-26 ATS as an underdog of less than 17 points away from home off an upset win.  Take San Francisco.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Abilene Christian Wildcats + the points over Sam Houston.  The Wildcats have lost each of their last four games SU/ATS, including a 77-62 defeat to these Bearkats on Feb 11.  We'll take Abilene to avenge that loss, as WAC Conference road teams, on an 0-3 SU/ATS losing streak, have covered 65% of games vs. conference foes since 1990, if they were playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  Grab the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Tulane Green Wave minus the points over East Carolina.  The Pirates and Green Wave are playing a rare home-and-home series.  The Pirates won Round 1 two days ago, with a 15-point home win.  We'll take Tulane at home in this rematch, as it's 10-1 ATS off a road defeat, while ECU is a poor 15-47 ATS off a double-digit win, when matched up against .700 (or worse) conference foes.  Take Tulane.

At 5 pm, our selection is on The Citadel Bulldogs + the points over Mercer.  The Bears swept the season series with 74-65 and 72-50 victories vs. The Citadel.  But the Bulldogs are 8-1 ATS in the tournament when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  And Mercer is a horrid 3-11 ATS in the post-season off a SU/ATS win.  Take the Bulldogs.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2:30 pm, our selection is on the Gardner-Webb Runnin' Bulldogs over South Carolina Upstate.  These teams are playing back to back games, as Upstate defeated Gardner-Webb, 75-69 last Saturday.  We'll take the Runnin' Bulldogs to avenge that defeat, as they're 8-1 ATS in the post-season when playing with revenge, while Upstate is 1-4 ATS when going into revenge in the tournament.  Take Gardner-Webb.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Monmouth Hawks over the Hampton Pirates.  Neither of these teams were able to win 30% of their games this season.  Monmouth was 6-25, while Hampton was 8-23.  The Hawks will play this afternoon's game with double-revenge from losses on Feb 23, at Hampton (86-81), and on Jan 21 (83-66).  We'll take Monmouth, as Colonial Athletic Ass'n teams with a losing record have covered just 36% in the conference tourney vs. foes they defeated twice in the regular season.  Take Monmouth.

At 11:30 pm, our selection is on the Pepperdine Waves minus the points over Pacific.  The Tigers come into this game off an upset win over Portland, 81-77, as a 3-point underdog.  We'll fade the Pilots tonight, as they're 0-19-1 ATS in the post-season off a SU/ATS conference win.  Take Pepperdine minus the points.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Clippers minus the points over Golden State.  The Warriors come into tonight's game off 3 SU/ATS wins, while the Clippers are off 3 SU/ATS losses.  We'll fade the Warriors, as defending NBA champions have covered just 33% at home since 1991 off back to back wins vs. foes off back to back losses, if the champs were also off an ATS win, while their opponent was off an ATS loss.  Take the Clippers minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Cal Irvine Anteaters plus the points over Cal Riverside.  Cal Irvine has failed to cover the spread in its last four games, while Riverside is 4-0 ATS its last four.  We'll take Irvine to get the $$$ tonight, as Big West Conference road teams have cashed 74.4% since 1998 off 3+ ATS losses vs. conference foes off 2+ ATS wins, including 8-0 ATS when not getting 2+ points.  Take Irvine.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Lightning over the Pittsburgh Penguins.  Compared with other contenders in the East -- the Maple Leafs and Rangers in particular -- the Lightning have been relatively quiet on the trade block approaching the deadline.  They did just make a deal and created some cap space by moving Vladislav Namestnikov to the Sharks, so another move may follow.  But for now it's business as usual on the ice and that means avenging an ugly loss to the Pens in Pittsburgh just four days ago.  The Penguins embarrassed the Bolts, 7-3 and then Tampa followed that up with a lackluster performance at home against the Panthers.  They'll regroup tonight for the Pittsburgh rematch in a much better environment than the meeting on Sunday.  The Bolts are 5-2 in the last seven meetings with the Pens here at Amalie Arena.  The Pens are .500 overall, but just 3-12 in their last 15 games vs. teams with a winning record.  They're also 3-12 in their last 15 against the Eastern Conference.  Take Pittsburgh.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Siena Saints minus the points over Manhattan.  The Saints were blown out in their last game, 93-60, by Iona.  We'll take the Saints to bounce back tonight, as they're 8-0-1 ATS as a favorite off a loss by more than 15 points.  Take Siena.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Cal Baptist Lancers minus the points over Rio Grande Valley.  The Lancers come into this game off back to back road losses at Sam Houston and SF Austin.  We'll lay the points, as Cal Baptist is 8-1 ATS as a favorite off back to back losses.  Take the Lancers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Chicago St Cougars + the points over Gonzaga.  We played on the Zags in their last game, and were rewarded with a 9-point SU/ATS win over St. Mary's for our West Coast Conference Game of the Year.  We'll fade Gonzaga tonight, as it's 2-11-1 ATS its last 14 off a point spread win.  And Chicago St is a solid 10-3 ATS as a double-digit road underdog.  Take the Cougars + the points.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Presbyterian Blue Hose + the points over Campbell.  The Fighting Camels are 5-18-1 ATS their last 24 games as a favorite of 7 or less points, including 1-13-1 ATS if their opponent was not off an ATS win.  With Presbyterian in off a SU/ATS loss to Charleston Southern, we'll take the underdog Blue Hose tonight.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Creighton Blue Jays minus the points over Georgetown. The Blue Jays dropped their two previous game.  But we'll lay the points with Greg McDermott's men, as Creighton is an awesome 22-0 straight-up, and 19-2-1 ATS in conference games, if it was off exactly 2 losses, and favored by 3+ points.  Take the Blue Jays.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets + the points over Memphis.  The Rockets have lost 10 straight following a 21-point loss at Denver.  We'll take the Rockets tonight, as the Grizzlies are a horrid 38-80 ATS vs. sub-.600 foes off a loss by 18+ points.  Take Houston.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics minus the points over Cleveland.  The Celtics lost the 2 previous meetings to Cleveland and also come into this game off an upset loss to the New York Knicks.  Boston is 17-6 ATS in the regular season off an upset loss when playing with double revenge.  Lay the points.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia 76ers minus the points over Miami.  These two teams met two days ago in the City of Brotherly Love, and Miami upset Philly, 101-99.  We'll lay the points with the Sixers in South Beach, as the Heat are 15-34-3 ATS at home vs. revenge-minded foes off a SU loss.  Take Philly.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Long Island Sharks + the points over Merrimack.  This game is a rematch of Saturday's game at Long Island, which was won by Merrimack, 80-59.  We'll take Long Island + the points tonight, as double-digit dogs have cashed 90% the past 20 seasons in the tournaments, if they were playing with revenge from a home loss in their previous game.  Take Long Island + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm our selection is on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish + the points over Pittsburgh.  The Irish are playing their final home game of the season.  And they'll also look to snap a 7-game losing streak.  The Irish are 10-3-1 ATS since 2009 in their final home games of the season, and 6-0 ATS their last 6 'final home games' if they were off a SU loss.  Meanwhile, the Panthers are 0-7 ATS their last 7 (and 2-12 ATS their last 14) when playing an opponent which was playing its final home game of the season, and also off a loss.  Take Notre Dame.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Tulsa Golden Hurricane + the points over South Florida.  These two teams met two weeks ago, and the Bulls won by 27, 96-69.  But going into that game, Tulsa had won 12 straight (8-4 ATS) since 2015 vs. South Florida.  We'll take the double-digits tonight, as the Bulls are 21-40-4 ATS when favored by more than 4 points, including 1 ATS win in 6 games vs. revenge-minded foes they defeated earlier in the season.  Take Tulsa.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Georgia St Panthers + the points over Texas St.  The Bobcats are an ugly 1-9 ATS their last 10, and 68-90-1 ATS their last 159 games played at home, or on a neutral court.  And they're also 10-21-1 ATS their last 32 when priced from -4 to -14 points.  Texas State is understandably favored in this game, as it owns the better record.  But it's still off back to back losses.  And Sun Belt teams, off back to back losses, have gone 3-12 ATS in the  Tourney when favored by more than 3 points.  Take Georgia St in the underdog role tonight.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the American Eagles minus the points over Bucknell.  The Eagles finished the regular season with a 15-14 record, while the Bison were 12-19.  It's true that the Eagles were blown out by the Bison, 73-51, in the previous meeting.  But we'll lay the points with American in this Patriot League tourney game, as revenge-minded teams that lost the previous meeting by 15+ points have gone 16-4 ATS in the Patriot League Tournament. And if our team owned a winning record, then our 16-4 stat zooms to a perfect 6-0 ATS.  Lay the points with American.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Syracuse minus the points over Georgia Tech.  The Orange were pummeled, 99-82, at Pitt on Saturday, as a 6-point underdog.  Meanwhile, the Yellow Jackets -- after failing to cover the spread in six straight games from Jan 14 to Feb 1 -- have now covered each of their last six lined games.  We'll fade Georgia Tech on the road tonight, as Syracuse is a terrific 20-6 ATS in conference games after failing to cover the spread by 9+ points in its previous game, including 11-1 ATS at home.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Stetson Hatters minus the points over Lipscomb.  In this quarterfinal round game of the Atlantic Sun tourney, we'll lay the points with the Hatters, as they play with revenge from a 7-point loss to the Bisons last week.  And the Hatters are 24-12 ATS when playing with revenge, including 6-1 ATS as a favorite.  Lay the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Kennesaw St Owls minus the points over Queens Univ.  We played on the Royals last night vs. Florida Gulf Coast, and were rewarded with a victory.  We'll switch gears and fade Queens Univ. at Kennesaw tonight, as the Owls will be looking to avenge a 10-point loss to the Royals 10 days ago.  Kennesaw is a solid 13-4 ATS when playing with revenge vs. an opponent off a win.  Take the Owls minus the points.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers minus the points over Arkansas St.  In this opening round game of the Sun Belt tourney, we'll take Coastal Carolina.  The Chanticleers were smashed by 16 points, 73-57, by the Red Wolves earlier this month.  We'll take Coastal to avenge that loss, as the Red Wolves are 4-10 ATS in the post-season vs. revenge-minded foes.  And the Chanticleers are 8-1 ATS when favored (or PK) and playing with revenge from a double-digit loss.  Take the Chanticleers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Queens U. Royals minus the points over Florida Gulf Coast.  The Royals will be at home for this opening round game of the Atlantic Sun tournament.  And we'll go against an Eagles team which has had its problems on the road.  Indeed, over their last 26 road games, the Eagles are a poor 8-18 ATS.  But they're over .500 ATS during this time at home, or on neutral courts.  We played on the Eagles this past Friday, in their game vs. Austin Peay, and were rewarded with an 89-71 blowout win.  But that game was at home.  We'll fade the Eagles tonight, as they're a poor 1-11 ATS on the road off a win by more than 5 points.  Take Queens U. minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers minus the points over Toronto.  After winning 7 straight in the first half of February, the Cavs are now mired in a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak following their 17-point loss to the Atlanta Hawks.  We'll look for Cleveland to snap its losing streak this evening, as the Cavs are 47-23 ATS off back to back losses, if they were favored by 6+ points vs. a losing team.  Take Cleveland.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Stanford Cardinal minus the points over Washington.  Stanford comes into this game off losses to UCLA, USC and Wazzu.  We'll take the Cardinal to bounce back here, at Maples Pavilion, as it's 28-14-1 ATS at home off back to back SU/ATS lossses.  Additionally, it's 9-3 ATS the last 12 meetings vs. Washington, and 13-2 ATS vs. Washington when priced from -4 to -10.5 points.  Take Stanford.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Bradley Braves minus the points over Drake.  The Braves come into this afternoon's game in Peoria on a 9-game win streak, and have also gone 6-0-1 ATS over their last seven games.  We'll lay the points with red-hot Bradley, as it seeks revenge from an 86-61 loss at Drake in January.  Missouri Valley Conference teams have gone 67-33 ATS off a SU win, when playing with revenge from a conference loss by 18+ points earlier in the season, if they weren't favored by 5+ points.  And the Braves are 65-39 ATS at home when playing with same-season revenge, including 7-1 ATS if they lost the previous meeting by 24+ points.  Take Bradley minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3:35 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Jets over the New York Islanders.  In a move that should bolster their offense, the Jets acquired winger Nino Niederreiter on Saurday from the Predators in exchange for a 2024 2nd round draft pick.  It's an offense that's managed just one goal in each of its last two games and it could certainly use a talent like the 30-year-old Niederreiter who should be available for his Winnipeg debut this afternoon.  The Jets likely aren't done either when it comes to improving the team as the trading deadline and post-season quickly approach.  This afternoon they will entertain an Islander team that made an early acquisition when it acquired Bo Horvat from the Canucks back on January 30.  Although Horvat has made an early impact, the Isles are still just 3-5 in their last eight games and have fallen below the .500 mark as a result.  Winnipeg was blasted at home by the Avs, 5-1 in its last but the Jets are 9-1 in their last 10 following a home loss of three or more goals.  New York is 1-5 in its last six vs. Central Division teams.  Take the Jets.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie

At 3:10 pm, our selection is on the Brooklyn Nets + the points over Atlanta.  The Nets were blasted by the Bulls on Friday, 131-87.  We'll take Jacque Vaughn's men to rebound this afternoon in Atlanta, as the Hawks are a horrid 50-92 ATS when playing rested foes off 20-point (or worse) defeats.  Take Brooklyn.

At 1:10 pm, our selection is on the Phoenix Suns + the points over the Milwaukee Bucks.  Milwaukee extended the NBA's longest win streak this season to 13 games with its 128-99 blowout win over the Miami Heat.  We'll fade the red-hot Bucks this afternoon, as Milwaukee is 98-154 ATS off 3+ wins, if playing a rested opponent.  And the Suns are a spectacular 30-15 ATS when playing an opponent with off back to back SU/ATS wins, if the Suns weren't favored by more than 7.  Take the Suns.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Iona Gaels minus the points over Siena.  Rick Pitino's men are in fine form, with eight straight wins, and a 6-0-1 ATS streak heading into this afternoon's contest.  And this 8-game streak started immediately after the Saints upset Iona, 70-53, on Jan. 27.  I don't expect Iona to take its foot off the gas today, given that it will be playing with revenge from that blowout loss.  And Iona typically doesn't let down off wins, as it's 46-30-2 ATS off a SU win, including 8-3 ATS when playing with revenge.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Gonzaga Bulldogs minus the points over St. Mary's Calif.  Gonzaga lost the first meeting in overtime.  But it's back home in "the Kennel" tonight, and we'll lay the points with the Bulldogs in this West Coast Conference revenge match.  St. Mary's comes into this game off a 31-point blowout of Pacific.  Unfortunately for the Gaels, Gonzaga is 23-6-1 ATS at home when playing an opponent off a win by 9+ points.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9:10 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs + the points over the Utah Jazz.  San Antonio lost its 15th straight on Thursday, when it fell by 26 at Dallas.  But this is a good matchup for the Silver and Black.  The Spurs have "owned" the Jazz lately, as they've covered four straight vs. Utah, including a 126-122 upset win earlier this season.  We'll grab the points with San Antonio, as Utah is 8-17 ATS its last 25 as a home favorite, while San Antonio is 53-35 ATS off a loss by 22+ points.  Take the Spurs.

At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia 76ers + the points over the Boston Celtics.  The 76ers won and covered their fifth straight game when they stormed back from a big deficit to defeat Memphis, 110-105, on Thursday.  They'll look to avenge a 106-99 loss at Boston 17 days ago when they host the Celtics tonight.  Philly is 14-3 ATS at home when playing with revenge from a road loss earlier in the season.  And it's also 12-0 ATS its last 12 home games when not favored by 5 or more points.  Take Philly.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the New Orleans Pelicans + the points over the New York Knicks.  The Pelicans will be looking to snap a 2-game losing streak after falling, 115-110, to Toronto on Thursday.  Meanwhile, the Knicks have won and covered four straight high-scoring games after last night's 115-109 victory over the Wizards.  Unfortunately, home favorites have only covered 30.7% since 1990 off 4 SU/ATS wins in which they scored 115+ points in each of those four victories, if they were matched up against an opponent off a SU loss.  Take New Orleans + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the DePaul Blue Demons + the points over Marquette.  DePaul will be looking to bounce back from an upset loss at home, 59-58, to Butler, on Wednesday.  The Blue Demons are 17-0-1 ATS in conference games vs. winning foes, if the Blue Demons were getting more than 3 points, and scored less than 62 at home in their previous game.  Take DePaul.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Miami Heat minus the points over Charlotte.  The Heat were blown out by Milwaukee, 128-99, in their first game after the All-Star Break.  And that was Miami's 3rd straight SU/ATS loss.  We'll take the Heat to bounce back, as they're 55-32 ATS off 3 ATS losses.  Lay the points with Miami.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Long Beach St 49ers minus the points over Cal State Northridge.  The 49ers failed to cover the spread by a half-point in their previous game, a 78-73 loss to UCSB as a 4.5-point underdog.  Tonight, they're favored by double-digits.  We'll lay the points, as Long Beach is 32-17 ATS off a point spread defeat, including 8-2 ATS when favored by more than 3 points.  Take the 49ers to blow out the Matadors.

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the Longwood Lancers minus the points over NC-Asheville.  Longwood has been installed as a home favorite in this game.  And the Lancers are a super 13-0-1 ATS at home when not favored by 6+ points.  Take Longwood.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners + the points over Cal State Fullerton.  The Titans blew out Bakersfiled, 76-46, at home earlier this season.  We'll take the Roadrunners to avenge that road defeat, as Big West Conference underdogs have cashed 67.7% since 1990 when playing with revenge from a 30-point (or worse) defeat earlier in the season.  Take Cal State Bakersfield.
