Sports Picks & Predictions

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Coppin State Eagles + the points over Howard.  The Bison have been brutal to bettors as a favorite this season, and are 2-8-1 ATS since December 16.  They're favored by double-digits tonight vs. the Eagles, who are 7-3-1 ATS since November 26 as double-digit underdogs (and 37-27-3 ATS their last 67).  Howard did win this season's earlier meeting by 15 points, 81-66.  But that victory has triggered a 93-45-2 ATS system of mine which plays on certain revenge-minded teams.  Take Coppin State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Miami-Florida Hurricanes + the points over North Carolina.  The 'Canes lost by 3 points, 75-72, in Miami, on February 10.  Miami did cover the 4-point spread in that 3-point loss, but has gone 0-4 ATS since.  We'll take the Hurricanes as a road underdog tonight, as they're 41-22 ATS when on a 3-game ATS losing streak.  And Miami is a terrific 26-6-1 ATS as a double-digit road underdog vs. conference foes when Miami's owned a winning record.  The Hurricanes also fall into a 251-148 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off 3+ losses.  Grab the points with Miami.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over the San Antonio Spurs.  The Jazz were upset here, at home, by Charlotte on Thursday, 115-107.  We'll take Utah to bounce back off that loss, as it is 109-65 ATS as a rested favorite of -2 (or more) points off a SU home loss.  Take the Jazz.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Hawks over the Orlando Magic.  The Magic come into State Farm Arena off 3 straight wins.  We'll fade Orlando tonight, as Atlanta is a solid 142-93 ATS at home vs. foes off 3+ wins.  Take the Hawks.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Nebraska Cornhuskers minus the points over Minnesota.  The Golden Gophers are an ugly 34-83 ATS away from home when priced from -1 to +11 vs. Big 10 Conference foes, including 6-33 ATS at a revenge-minded foe.  With Nebraska, indeed, playing with revenge from an 11-point loss in Minneapolis on Dec. 6, we'll lay the points with the 'Huskers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers minus the points over Washington.  From December 16 through February 10, the Cavs were the league's hottest teams, as they went 22-4 straight-up, and 18-8 ATS.  But they've stumbled to a 1-3 SU and 0-4 ATS record over the past 2 weeks.  We'll lay the points with Cleveland this evening, as Washington is 25-49-3 ATS at home vs. rested foes, including 1-8 ATS as an underdog vs. foes off an upset loss.  Take Cleveland.

At 5 pm, our selection is on the Xavier Musketeers + the points over Marquette.  Xavier was upset at home, 79-75, by Providence, on Wednesday.  We'll take Xavier to bounce back, as it's 26-14 ATS off an upset loss vs. foes off a SU/ATS win.  And it's 12-2 ATS away from home off a loss by 5 points or less, including 7-0 ATS its last seven.  Take Xavier + the points.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the IUPUI Jaguars + the points over Northern Kentucky.  The Jaguars lost earlier this season by 16 to the Norse, as a 10-point home dog.  They're getting double-digits again this afternoon from Northern Kentucky, which enters off a narrow 75-73 win over Cleveland St.  We'll take IUPUI, as it falls into a 924-677-35 ATS system of mine.  Additionally, Horizon League road underdogs of more than 10 points, off a SU loss, have gone 99-69 ATS vs. conference foes off a win.  And Northern Kentucky is a soft 5-15 ATS off a win when favored by 9+ points vs. revenge-minded foes.  Take IUPUI + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Wagner Seahawks minus the points over Long Island.  Wagner comes into this game off back to back losses to Sacred Heart and Central Connecticut St.  We'll take the Seahawks to rebound at home this afternoon, as they fall into 85-35 and 105-56 ATS systems of mine.  Additionally, the Seahawks have cashed 64.2% off back to back losses, including 5-0 ATS their last five vs. foes off an upset win.  With Long Island entering off an upset victory over Le Moyne on Thursday, we'll lay the points with Wagner.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the SMU Mustangs over South Florida.  The Mustangs are a terrific 34-17-1 ATS on the road vs. a foe off a win, if the Mustangs were not getting 2+ points.  Take SMU.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Texas El Paso Miners minus the points over Sam Houston St.  The Miners have lost their last 3 games SU/ATS, while the Bearkats are on a 3-game SU/ATS win streak.  The knee-jerk reaction might be to play on the relatively-hot road team, but we'll lay the points with UTEP, as it's cashed 73% the last 34 seasons off back to back SU/ATS losses, when playing a conference foe off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Take the Miners.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Texas A&M Aggies + the points over Tennessee.  The Aggies come into this game on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak, including a home upset loss to Arkansas (as an 11.5-point favorite) on Tuesday.  We'll take A&M to rebound tonight, as it's 59-29 ATS off 2 ATS losses, and 18-6 ATS when on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak.  Take the Aggies.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Yale Bulldogs minus the points over Columbia.  Yale comes into this evening's game off back to back losses at Princeton and at Cornell.  We'll take the Bulldogs, as they're 23-7-1 ATS as favorite away from home off a loss, and 42-22 ATS away from home off back to back losses.  Take Yale.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Brown Bears + the points over Cornell.  The Big Red defeated the Bears by a single point last month, 84-83.  We'll take Brown to avenge that defeat, as it is 44-26-1 ATS as an underdog of 7+ points.  And it's covered the last 4 meetings vs. the Big Red.  Take Brown.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the Lindenwood Lions + the points over Arkansas Little Rock.  The Trojans enter today's game on a 6-game win streak.  Unfortunately, the Trojans are a poor 6-19-1 ATS on a 5-game (or better) win streak, while the Lions have cashed 67% vs. foes on 3-game (or better) win streaks.  Take the Lions + the points.

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the New Orleans Privateers + the points over SE Louisiana.  The Lions upset the Privateers, 73-68, as 2-point underdogs last month.  They're favored by double-digits this afternoon, and we'll fade the Lions, as double-digit faves have cashed just 39% since 1990 if they upset their opponent in the season's prior meeting.  Take New Orleans.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the UC San Diego Tritons minus the points over Cal Irvine.  The Tritons lost by 11 points at Irvine earlier this season.  We'll take the revenge-minded Tritons at home this afternoon, as they're 10-2 ATS their last 12 when playing with revenge; 11-3 ATS their last 14 at home; and 12-3 their last 15 when favored.  Take the Tritons.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Air Force Falcons + the points over New Mexico.  The Falcons were blown out by 29 points, 72-43, in their most recent game vs. UNLV.  And they also lost at home to these Lobos by 19 last month.  We'll take Air Force to bounce back this afternoon, as it's 8-0 ATS on the road off a loss by 15+ points, and 17-3-1 ATS on the road when playing with revenge from a loss by more than 7 points.  Take the Falcons.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Vanderbilt Commodores + the point over Florida.  The Commordores lost their previous game, SU/ATS, as they fell to Georgia, 76-64.  And that was their 2nd straight defeat, overall.  We'll take the underdog this afternoon, as SEC Conference underdogs of > 14 points have gone 82-56-2 ATS in regular season conference games, if they were off back to back losses.  Take Vanderbilt + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers minus the points over Philadelphia.  This is the 3rd meeting of the season between these clubs.  Cleveland won the first meeting at Philly, 122-119, while the Sixers upset Cleveland, 123-121, on the road 11 days ago.  Both of these teams were upset at home last night in their first game following the All-Star Break.  Cleveland lost, 115-109, to the Orlando Magic, while the 76ers fell by 14 points, 110-96, to the New York Knicks.  Tonight, the Cavaliers are favored at Philly, as Joel Embiid remains out following knee surgery.  This season, without Embiid on the floor, the Sixers are a woeful 6-15.  Even better for Cleveland:  it's a solid 24-16 ATS off a SU/ATS loss, and has cashed its last five when playing with revenge.  Lay the points with the Cavaliers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 11 pm, our selection is on the Arizona Wildcats minus the points over Washington St.  Both teams come into tonight's game off blowout wins.  Arizona smashed Arizona St., 105-60, while Wazzu downed Stanford, 72-59.  That was the 7th straight win for the Cougars, who upset the Wildcats last month, 73-70, as a 9-point home underdog.  We'll take the Wildcats to avenge that defeat, as revenge-minded Pac-12 home teams have gone 100-72 ATS off back to back wins, provided their opponent wasn't off back to back losses.  Even better:  Arizona is 32-6-1 ATS when favored by 7+ points, if it was off a 20-point (or greater) win, and covered the spread in that win by 10+ points.  Take the Wildcats.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 11 pm, our selection is on the Loyola Marymount Lions + the points over Santa Clara.  The Lions lost, 68-57, at home to the Broncos last month.  We'll take the Lions to avenge that defeat as West Coast Conference road teams have gone 114-63 ATS if they weren't getting 13+ points, and were playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  Take Loyola Marymount.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Tarleton St. Texans + the points over Grand Canyon.  The Texans come into this game on a 6-game SU/ATS win streak, and have been installed as a home dog vs. the Antelopes.  We'll take the Texans as teams riding 6-game SU/ATS win streaks have cashed 65.6% since 1990 as home underdogs.  And the Texans also fall into a 265-167 ATS 'momentum' system of mine which plays on certain teams off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Take Tarleton St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Southern Utah Thunderbirds + the points over Texas Arlington.  Southern Utah comes into this road game off a 78-75 home loss to Utah Valley St.  We'll grab the points with the Thunderbirds, as they're 33-21 ATS as an underdog, and 28-12 ATS off a SU loss.  Take Southern Utah + the points.

At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the New Jersey Devils over the New York Rangers.  With less than 8 weeks remaining in the regular season, the Devils sit 4 points behind Detroit for the 2nd wild card berth in the Eastern conference, so each game is critical for their playoff hopes.  The Devils were embarrassed on Tuesday night, as Washington blew them out, 6-2.  But New Jersey is a solid 15-9 after giving up 4+ goals this season (and 6-2 after surrendering 6+ goals).  The Devils are 11-6 their last 17 off a loss, while the Rangers have lost 6 of their last 9 road games.  Take New Jersey.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 7 pm, our selection is on the New Jersey Tech Highlanders + the points over New Hampshire.  Both teams come into this game off SU losses.  The Highlanders fell, 69-55, at home to Binghamton, which lowered their season record to 7-17 SU and 9-14 ATS.  And New Hampshire lost at Vermont, 70-54, to drop its record to 14-10 SU and 12-11 ATS.  The Wildcats did defeat NJIT, 70-62, in Newark last month.  But we'll take the Highlanders to avenge that defeat as UNH has covered just 35.2% vs. foes it defeated earlier in the season, including 0-7 ATS if the Wildcats had a winning ATS record.  Additionally, the Highlanders fall into an 893-670-33 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off losses.  Grab the points with New Jersey Tech.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Radford Highlanders + the points over Gardner-Webb.  Both teams come into tonight's game with identical 13-14 records.  The Highlanders' 10-4 start to the season has long been forgotten, as they've gone 3-10 since, including 5 straight losses coming into Thursday's game.  Meanwhile, the Runnin' Bulldogs return home off back-to-back road wins at Charleston Southern and South Carolina Upstate.  The knee-jerk reaction might be to take the relatively-hot Runnin' Bulldogs.  Unfortunately, they are a poor 16-31 ATS at home, while Radford is 26-16-1 ATS its last 43 away from home.  I like Radford to snap its losing streak tonight.  Take the Highlanders + the points.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the New Mexico Lobos minus the points over Colorado St.  The Rams are 8-5 ATS at home this season, where they have covered the spread by an average of 2.15 ppg.  On the road, however, they're just 3-5 ATS, and have failed to cover the spread by an average of 2.81 ppg.  Meanwhile, the Lobos have dominated at home, as they're 9-3 ATS, and they've covered the spread by an average of 5.25 ppg.  The Rams won the first meeting this season, 76-68.  But New Mexico is a super 53-25 ATS as a single-digit favorite when playing with revenge, while Colorado St. is a woeful 32-56-3 ATS as a single-digit underdog when playing a revenge-minded conference foe.  Lay the points with the Lobos.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Tigers minus the points over Charlotte.  The 49ers enter tonight's game off a 72-61 home win over Wichita, as a 6-point home favorite.  The 49ers, though, are 11-1 SU and 10-2 ATS at home this season, and have covered the spread at home by 5.41 ppg.  On the road, it's a different story, as they're 2-6 ATS, and have failed to cover by 1.94 ppg.  And when the 49ers are off a straight-up win, they're 10-29-1 ATS their last 40 road games, including 2-14 ATS when getting 5+ points.  Take Memphis.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Rhode Island Rams + the points over Richmond.  The Spiders blew out George Washington, 90-74, on Saturday.  We'll fade them on the road, as they're 0-8 ATS away from home off a win by 12+ points.  Take Rhode Island.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the George Mason Patriots + the points over Dayton.  The Patriots are 17-8, and come into this home game off back to back wins, including a 23-point blowout win eight days ago over George Washington.  The Patriots are 54-37 ATS at home off back to back wins, including 10-4 ATS as home underdogs.  And they're 18-2 ATS off a win by 18+ points, including a perfect 12-0 ATS vs. winning opposition.  Take George Mason + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Navy Midshipmen over Loyola Maryland.  The Greyhounds come into tonight's game off an ATS win at Lehigh.  They lost by 5, but covered the 10-point spread.  Unfortunately, the Greyhounds are a ghastly 18-45 ATS at home off a point spread win.  Even worse:  this season, at home, regardless of how they did their prior game, the Greyhounds are 0-9 ATS.  Take Navy.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Miami-Fla Hurricanes + the points over Duke.  This is a rematch of an ACC Conference Tournament semifinal game last season, won by Duke, 85-78.  After reaching the NCAA Tourney semi-finals last season, Miami very likely won't be going to the Big Dance this season, as it's 15-11 thus far.  Miami comes into this game off 4 straight losses, including an 85-77 loss to Boston College, as a 1-point underdog, last Saturday.  But 3 of those 4 defeats were on the road, while the home loss was a 3-point defeat to N. Carolina, as a 4-point home underdog, so the Hurricanes covered the spread.  Miami has won 27 of its last 31 home games, including a perfect 3-0 ATS when installed as an underdog.  And, whether home or away, the Hurricanes are 30-11-1 ATS as underdogs, including 11-2 ATS when playing with revenge.  Take the points with Miami.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Utah State Aggies minus the points over San Diego State.  The Aggies have dominated as a home favorite, going 78-47-1 ATS their last 126.  Meanwhile, the Aztecs are 3-12 ATS their last 15 road games.  Take the Aggies minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the BYU Cougars minus the points over Baylor.  The Cougars lost their fourth straight game ATS on Saturday, as they were upset, 93-83, by Oklahoma St.  BYU is a super 19-3 ATS as a favorite off 4+ ATS losses, and we'll lay the points tonight.  Take the Cougars.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Creighton Bluejays + the points over Connecticut.  The Huskies have won 14 straight games, including a 62-48 win as a 6-point home favorite vs the Bluejays, on Jan. 17.  And these facts have triggered a 69.0% system of mine which goes against certain teams on 14-game (or better) win streaks that are playing an opponent with revenge from a double-digit loss.  Even better:  Creighton has won its last 3 games SU/ATS.  And NCAA teams on 14-game win streaks have cashed just 26 of 69 road games vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Additionally, the Bluejays have gone 18-7 ATS off 3+ wins, if they were playing with same-season revenge, including 6-0 ATS as an underdog.  Take the Bluejays.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm (in a write-in game), our selection is on the Morehead St. Eagles minus the points over the Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles.  Morehead State returns home tonight off back to back road losses to Little Rock and Tennessee-Martin.  The good news for the Eagles is that they are 12-0 at home this season, while going 6-1 ATS in their seven lined home games (covering by an average of 4.25 ppg).  Morehead was also super last season at home, as it was 14-2 SU and 9-3 ATS.  And it's 31-15-2 ATS its last 48 at home, including 12-3-2 ATS off an ATS loss.  Lay the points with Morehead St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over the New York Rangers.  The Rangers won their 7th straight game, with a comeback, 6-5 win over the rival Islanders, on Sunday.  Today, they'll welcome the Stars to Madison Square Garden.  And Dallas will be looking to bounce back from losses to Edmonton and Boston -- both by 4-3 scores, settled after regulation.  We'll take Dallas in the underdog role tonight, as it is 50-24 (+15.7 net games) after allowing 3+ goals in back to back games.  And it's a stellar 23-8 on the road off a loss (and 9-1 on the road off back-to-back losses).  Meanwhile, the Rangers are 4-9 after scoring more than 4 goals in their previous game.  Take Dallas.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Toledo Rockets minus the points over Akron.  Both of these Mid-American Conference teams have winning records inside the MAC.  Akron is 11-1, while Toledo is a game behind, at 10-2.  We'll lay the points with Toledo, as MAC conference matchups between teams with winning conference records have seen the favorite cover 60% over the last 27 regular seasons, if they owned a worse conference record than their opponent.  Additionally, Toledo is 14-4 ATS as a favorite of less than 8 points vs. Akron, while the Zips are 0-10 SU and 1-9 ATS as an underdog of 2+ points.  Take Toledo.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Florida St. Seminoles minus the points over Boston College.  The Seminoles enter tonight's game on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak.  But Florida St. is a solid 48-28 ATS off 3+ losses.  Lay the points with the Seminoles.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Western Michigan Broncos + the points over Miami-Ohio.  The RedHawks play this game with revenge from a 9-point upset loss at home to the Broncos last month.  Unfortunately, they're 2-7 ATS their last nine meetings with the Broncos when installed as the favorite.  Even better:  the Broncos enter tonight's game on a 6-game losing streak.  But they're a solid 47-25 ATS at home off back to back losses when they weren't favored by 4+ points.  Take the home underdog Broncos.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Houston Cougars minus the points over Iowa State.  Both of these Big 12 Conference teams come into tonight's game off SU/ATS Wins.  Houston blew out Texas, 82-61, on Saturday, while Iowa State won and covered its fourth straight game, with an 82-74 victory vs. Texas Tech.  The Cougars don't lose very often, but they did suffer a defeat in Ames last month.  The Cyclones upset the Coogs, 57-53, as a 2.5-point home dog.  We'll take Kelvin Sampson's men to avenge that upset loss, as Houston is 38-15 ATS vs. foes off back to back ATS wins, if Houston was not off back to back ATS wins.  Even better:  the Cougars are 14-0 straight-up at home this season.  And home teams, with a 7-0 (or better) home record, have gone 135-103 ATS in the regular season when priced from -9 to -16.5 against a foe it lost to earlier in the season.  Finally, Iowa State is a horrid 0-12-1 ATS away from home on a 4-game (or better) ATS win streak, if their opponent was off an ATS win.  Lay the points with Houston.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Texas Southern Tigers over the Southern Jaguars.  The Jaguars have won 7 straight games, while the Tigers have dropped two straight.  We'll take the Tigers to snap their losing streak, and avenge a 58-51 loss to Southern earlier this season.  The Jaguars are a poor 8-13 ATS on the road vs. revenge-minded foes, while Texas Southern is 15-8 ATS when playing with revenge against foes off an ATS win.  Take the Tigers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Illinois State Redbirds minus the points over Evansville.  The Redbirds will seek revenge this afternoon vs. Evansville, as the Purple Aces upset the Redbirds, 58-54, last month.  The good news for Illinois State is that it has dominated this series in the regular season vs. the Purple Aces, going 15-4 SU and 14-5 ATS the last 19 meetings, including a perfect 4-0 ATS when playing with revenge.  Additionally, the Purple Aces are 5-15-1 ATS on the road when playing a revenge-minded foe, and not catching double-digits.  Take Illinois State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Florida Atlantic Owls minus the points over South Florida.  The Bulls are 18-5 SU on the season, 14-5-4 ATS, and have covered the spread by an average of 2.89 ppg.  They also come into this game on a 10-game win streak.  Notwithstanding those gaudy stats, we'll fade South Florida, and lay the points with Florida Atlantic, as the Owls are 32-9 ATS vs. foes not off a straight-up loss, including 10-0 ATS if their foe has covered the spread by an average of 2.85 ppg (or better).  Take the Owls.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Pacific Tigers + the points over Gonzaga.  The Bulldogs return home off 2 impressive road wins, and have won 3 games SU/ATS, overall.  They won at home vs. Portland on Feb. 7, then went into Lexington and upset Kentucky, 89-85, last Saturday, and then followed that up with a 91-74 win at Loyola Marymount.  But off those 3 SU/ATS wins, we'll fade Gonzaga, as it's 11-20 ATS as a double-digit favorite off 3 SU/ATS wins.  Take Pacific.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the Missouri Tigers + the points over Ole Miss.  The Tigers are a huge underdog in Oxford tonight.  We'll take Mizzou + the points, as SEC Double-Digit Dogs are 152-96 ATS in conference games off losses by more than 11 points.  Take Missouri.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Michigan Wolverines + the points over Michigan St.  The Wolverines lost by 19 earlier this season at Michigan St.  And Michigan also comes into this home game off back to back road losses at Nebraska and Illinois.  We'll take Michigan to bounce back, as it's 22-10 ATS off a loss, if it was playing with revenge from a defeat earlier in the season.  Take Michigan as a home dog.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Cal Baptist Lancers + the points over Grand Canyon.  The Antelopes are on a 6-game win streak, and won their previous game, 73-61, vs. Utah Tech.  Unfortunately, they're a wallet-busting 6-17 ATS off a double-digit win.  Take Cal Baptist + the points.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Cal Baptist Lancers + the points over Grand Canyon.  The Antelopes are on a 6-game win streak, and won their previous game, 73-61, vs. Utah Tech.  Unfortunately, they're a wallet-busting 6-17 ATS off a double-digit win.  Take Cal Baptist + the points.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Princeton Tigers minus the points over Yale.  These two teams met 15 days ago in New Haven, and the Bulldogs got a 6-point win, 70-64.  We'll take the Tigers to avenge that loss, as they're 14-8 ATS as a single-digit home favorite when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  And the favorite is also 34-21 ATS in this series.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the DePaul Blue Demons + the points over Providence.  The Friars blew out DePaul by 38 points a month ago.  We'll take the Blue Demons tonight, and go against a Providence team which is a poor 48-73-2 ATS as a double-digit home favorite, including 23-41-1 ATS against an opponent it defeated by 10+ points in the prior meeting.  Take DePaul.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the West Virginia Mountaineers + the points over Baylor.  The Bears enter today's game off ATS wins against Kansas and Oklahoma, while WVU returns home off back to back SU/ATS losses at Texas and TCU.  We'll take the home dog, as Big 12 road teams have gone 69-105 ATS if they covered the spread in their 2 previous games, and their opponent lost ATS in its two previous games.  Take the Mountaineers.

At 5 pm, our selection is on the Weber State Wildcats + the points over Eastern Washington.  The Wildcats were upset, 80-78, by the Eagles earlier this season.  We'll take the Wildcats to avenge that loss, as they're an awesome 101-57 ATS in the regular season when playing with revenge, including 45-21 ATS on the road.  Take Weber State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the Houston Christian Huskies + the points over SE Louisiana.  The Lions will look for their sixth straight win today, and will welcome a Huskies team looking to bounce back off a 51-point loss in their last outing, as well as avenge a 22-point loss to SE Louisiana last month.  We'll take Houston Christian, as SE Louisiana is 0-8 ATS off 4+ wins.  And the Huskies are 9-2 ATS off a loss by 15+ points, if they were playing with revenge.  Take the Huskies.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. 

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Nicholls St. Colonels + the points over McNeese St.  The Colonels have won 38 of their last 43 home games, straight-up, yet find themselves installed as a huge home dog today vs. the Cowboys.  We'll take Nicholls, as home dogs of more than 5 points that have won at least 35 of their previous 40 home games, have cashed 60% since 1990.  Take Nicholls St.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Cal Santa Barbara Gauchos over Hawaii.  Hawaii comes into this game off a blowout win, 80-51, over Cal Poly SLO.  And that was its second straight high-scoring blowout victory, as it smashed Cal Davis, 87-70, last Saturday.  Meanwhile, UCSB comes into this game off 3 SU/ATS losses.  Still, we'll take the Gauchos minus the points as favorites off back to back SU/ATS losses have covered 62% since 1990 vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins in which they scored 80+ points.  Take UCSB.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Mississippi Valley St. Delta Devils + the points over Alabama A&M.  The Delta Devils lost by 8 earlier this season to the Bulldogs.  We'll take Miss Valley State this afternoon as a huge underdog, as it is 17-7 ATS as an underdog when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.

At 3 pm, our selection is on IUPUI + the points over Oakland.  IUPUI will be looking to avenge a 22-point loss to the Grizzlies last month.  We'll take the Jaguars, as they're 27-15 ATS as an underdog of 2+ points when playing with revenge vs. a foe off a SU win.  Take IUPUI.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Marquette Golden Eagles + the points over Connecticut.  Marquette is 2.5 games back of UConn in the Big East standings.  We'll take Marquette as an underdog, as it's 8-2-2 ATS when playing a conference foe with a better conference record.  And it's a stellar 26-9-2 ATS its last 37 as an underdog.  Grab the points.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Valparaiso Beacons + the points over Missouri St.  The Beacons will look to bounce back from a 19-point home loss to Northern Iowa, and snap their 7-game losing streak.  Meanwhile, the Bears also lost by double-digits their last time out, with an 82-72 defeat at Murray St.  We'll take Valparaiso, as Missouri Valley Conference double-digit dogs have gone 129-89 ATS in the regular season when facing an opponent off a straight-up loss.  Even better:  Valpo plays this afternoon's game with revenge from an 81-70 loss.  And it's 12-0 ATS with revenge, if it was off a loss by 8+ points, and getting 8+ points in its current game.  Take the Beacons.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Loyola-Maryland Greyhounds + the points over Lehigh.  The Greyhounds lost at home earlier in the season to the Mountain Hawks.  We'll grab the points with Loyola-Maryland, as it is 45-25 ATS on the road when playing with revenge from a home loss.

At 3 pm, our selection is on IUPUI + the points over Oakland.  IUPUI will be looking to avenge a 22-point loss to the Grizzlies last month.  We'll take the Jaguars, as they're 27-15 ATS as an underdog of 2+ points when playing with revenge vs. a foe off a SU win.  Take IUPUI.

At 1:30 pm, our selection is on the Fordham Rams + the points over Dayton.  The Rams come into this afternoon's game off back to back home losses to VCU (75-60) and St. Bonaventure (85-67).  We'll take the Rams + the points, as they're 8-0 ATS their last 8 (and 19-3 ATS their last 22) off back to back losses -- and 7-0 ATS as a double-digit dog off back to back losses.  Take Fordham.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Texas Tech Red Raiders + the points over Iowa State.  It's true that Iowa State is 14-0 straight-up at home this season, and has only allowed an average of 55.4 ppg in those 14 wins.  But Texas Tech has excelled as an underdog of more than 5 points vs. defensive-minded foes that give up less than 64 ppg, as it has gone 12-2 ATS.  Take Texas Tech + the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Dartmouth Big Green + the points over Columbia.  The Lions return home tonight after playing 3 Ivy League games on the road.  They covered the spread in all 3, and won the last 2 games, straight-up.  They're laying a big number to Dartmouth, which is on a 3-game losing streak.  We'll grab the points with the road team, as Columbia is a poor 4-17-1 ATS at home off a road win, including 0-7-1 ATS when favored by more than 5 points.  And Dartmouth is 58-36-3 ATS as a road dog of > 9 points in Ivy League games.  Finally, Dartmouth falls into a 612-411-26 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams with inferior records.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Portland Pilots + the points over San Diego.  The Toreros upset Portland, 85-81, on the road last month.  We'll fade San Diego, as it is 16-28-4 ATS playing an opponent it defeated on the road in the season's prior meeting.  Take Portland.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners over the Cal State Northridge Matadors.  Both of these teams come into this game off nice wins.  The Matadors upset the Gauchos, 82-74, as a 6-point road dog, while Bakersfield edged Fullerton, 73-71, as a 2-point home favorite.  It's true that Northridge has revenge from an 8-point home loss to the Roadrunners.  But revenge-minded Big West road teams, off a SU/ATS win, have cashed just 28% when installed as a favorite against a foe off a SU win.  Take Bakersfield.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Arkansas Little Rock Trojans + the points over Morehead St.  The Eagles come into this game with a 20-5 record.  We'll take the points with the home dog, as Little Rock is 20-6 ATS vs. winning teams, including 9-1-1 ATS at home.  Grab the points.

At 9:10 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over the LA Lakers.  Los Angeles won and covered its 2nd straight game last night with a 125-111 blowout of Detroit.  We'll fade Los Angeles tonight, as it's 43-77 ATS in the regular season off back to back wins and covers, when matched up against a foe off a SU loss.  Take Utah.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9:10 pm, our selection is on the Denver Nuggets minus the points over Sacramento.  The Nuggets were blown out, 112-95, by Milwaukee, on Monday.  And that was their 2nd straight loss.  We'll lay the points with the Nuggets, as defending champs are 61-34-1 ATS off back to back losses, if they lost their most recent game by 15+ points.  Take Denver.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Bradley Braves minus the points over Illinois-Chicago.  The Braves were upset, 74-67, by Drake here, at home, on Saturday.  We'll take Bradley to bounce back as it is 27-17-3 ATS at home off a SU loss.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Brooklyn Nets + the points over Boston.  The Nets lost at home last night, 118-110, to Boston.  This rematch is in Boston.  We'll take the Nets, as they're 54-32 ATS as a road underdog when playing with revenge from a home defeat.  Take the Nets + the points.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Hawks minus the points over the Charlotte Hornets.  Charlotte won its last two games -- each as a home underdog -- vs. Memphis and Indiana.  We'll fade Charlotte tonight, as home underdogs have cashed just 36% since 1990 off back to back upset home wins where they were an underdog of +5 (or more) points in those two upset victories.  Take Atlanta minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Detroit Titans minus the points over IUPUI.  The Jaguars upset Detroit earlier this season, 67-55, as a 2.5-point home underdog.  We'll take Detroit to avenge that defeat, as IUPUI is 32-42-1 ATS when playing a revenge-minded foe, including 9-16 ATS if IUPUI won the previous meeting by double-digits.  Lay the points with Detroit.

At 7 pm our selection is on the Northern Kentucky Norse + the points over Green Bay.  The Phoenix are on a 5-game win streak.  But we will fade them this evening, as they're 13-22-1 ATS off 3+ wins.  Grab the points with Northern Kentucky.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Kennesaw St. Owls minus the points over Jacksonville.  The Dolphins pulled off an upset, 67-63, at home vs. North Alabama on Saturday.  Unfortunately, Jacksonville is a poor 3-18 ATS off a point spread win.  Lay the points with the Owls.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 11 pm, our selection is on the Nevada Wolf Pack minus the points over New Mexico.  This is a great game tonight between two teams with identical 19-5 records.  It's also a rematch of a game played just 16 days ago in Albuquerque.  The Lobos won that game by 34 points, 89-55.  We'll take the revenge-minded Wolf Pack, as .775 (or better) teams have cashed 60.7% ATS as favorites when playing with revenge from a loss by more than 20 points earlier in the season.  Take Nevada minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Wisconsin Badgers minus the points over the Ohio State Buckeyes.  Wisconsin is on a rare 4-game SU/ATS losing streak.  But their last two games were on the road.  Wisky is back home tonight.  And it's a super 51-30-1 ATS at home off back to back ATS losses (including 35-17 ATS off a SU loss).  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the LSU Tigers + the points over Florida.  The Tigers were blown out, 109-92, by Alabama, on Saturday.  We'll take LSU to bounce back, as SEC Conference double-digit underdogs are 151-96 ATS off losses by 12+ points.  Grab the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Bearcats over the Iowa State Hawkeyes.  The Bearcats lost here, at home, to Houston, 67-62, on Saturday.  But off that loss, we'll take Cincy tonight, as it is 14-0-1 ATS off a conference loss.  Take the Bearcats.

At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the Washington Wizards + the points over Dallas.  The Mavericks have won 4 straight games (both SU and ATS), including an upset of Oklahoma City, 146-111, in their last game.  Meanwhile, the Wizards are riding a 6-game losing streak.  We'll fade Dallas off its upset win, as it's 0-8 ATS this season off an upset win.  Even worse for the Mavs:  they defeated Washington, 130-117, earlier this season.  But Dallas is 15-32-1 ATS vs. revenge-minded foes, while Washington is 97-63-3 ATS when playing with revenge from a home loss.  And Dallas is also a wallet-breaking 16-33-2 ATS as a home favorite, including 0-12-1 ATS when favored by more than 3 points vs. Eastern conference foes.  Finally, the Wizards are 6-0 ATS in their last six road games.  We'll grab the points with Washington.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the San Francisco 49ers (on the moneyline), to win the game, straight-up, over the Kansas City Chiefs.  This is a rematch of the 2020 Super Bowl won by the Chiefs, 31-20, as a 1.5-point favorite.  Since then, the two teams have met once.  And that was last season, in San Francisco, in RB Christian McCaffrey's first game as a 49er following the trade with the Carolina Panthers.  The Chiefs were favored by 1 point, and won, 44-23.  Kansas City is, without a doubt, playing its best football of the season.  It won impressively at Buffalo and Baltimore to reach this game.  And it has been well-chronicled how well the Chiefs have performed in the underdog role (17-4-1 ATS, including 15-1-1 ATS away from home).  But the 49ers have also excelled in the role of small favorite.  San Francisco is a perfect 7-0 SU/ATS when favored by less than 4 points.  And it has covered the spread in those games by an average of 16.25 ppg.  Notably, six of those seven games involved opponents that qualified for the playoffs.  The 49ers have also been terrific against teams off upset wins (8-1-1 ATS) and against opponents off back-to-back wins (59-39-3 ATS).  And, while it's true that the Niners failed to cover the spread in their three previous games, the Chiefs are 1-10 SU and 2-8-1 ATS as underdogs vs. foes off 3 ATS losses!  Even better:  NFL Playoff teams that weren't getting 3+ points, have gone 0-9 ATS if they covered their previous game by 10+ points, and their opponent was on a 3-game (or worse) ATS losing streak.  The 49ers will no doubt be prepared for Steve Spagnuolo's blitz packages.  And Brock Purdy led the NFL, statistically, this season when facing a blitz.  He ranked #1 with 9.9 yards per attempt, and also had the best QB rating (127.9).  I will take the 49ers to win the game, straight-up, on the moneyline.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3:10 pm, our selection is on the Oklahoma City Thunder minus the points over Sacramento.  The Kings won the first two meetings this season between these teams.  But those two games were at home, in Sacramento.  This afternoon's game is in Oklahoma City.  We'll take the Thunder, as they've cashed 69% at home the last 34 seasons, if they owned a better record than their opponent, and were playing with double revenge in the regular season from two losses suffered earlier in the season.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Iowa Hawkeyes minus the points over Minnesota.  The Golden Gophers have been installed as an underdog at Iowa this afternoon.  We'll fade the Gophers, as they are an ugly 1-25 ATS away from home in Big 10 Conference regular season games vs. foes with a losing conference record, when Minnesota was priced from +2.5 to +8 points.  Take Iowa minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Pacific Tigers + the points over San Diego.  The Toreros have been installed as a road favorite.  But they're a terrible 2-11-1 ATS as a favorite, including 0-7-1 ATS when laying less than 6 points.  Take the Tigers + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Sacramento State Hornets + the points over Weber St.  The Hornets have lost their last 3 games to the point spread.  But we'll take them as a huge underdog tonight, as they're 14-4 ATS when getting 9+ points off 2 (or more) ATS losses.  Take Sacramento St.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Utah Utes minus the points over Arizona State.  This is a huge revenge spot for the Utes, who lost, 82-70, at Arizona State earlier this season.  Utah is 69-46 ATS at home when playing with revenge from a road loss, while ASU is a soft 23-39 ATS as a double-digit road underdog.  Lay the points with Utah.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Idaho Vandals + the points over Eastern Washington.  Idaho lost by 21 at Eastern Washington last month, 79-58.  We'll take the revenge-minded Vandals, as they're 47-27-5 ATS when playing with revenge from a double-digit loss.  Grab the points.

At 6  pm, our selection is on the Penn Quakers + the points over Princeton.  The Quakers have dropped five straight games (both SU and ATS), with the last 3 coming on the road.  We'll take Penn + the points as it is 11-1 ATS off 3 road losses.  And it also falls into a 337-226-13 ATS system of mine that plays on certain teams on ATS losing streaks.  Take Penn.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Mount St. Mary's Mountaineers + the points over Quinnipiac.  The Bobcats come into this game off back to back blowout home wins over Canisius and St. Peters.  Unfortunately, they've covered just 8 of 25 off back to back home wins, including just 2 of 12 vs. revenge-minded foes.  Earlier this season, the Bobcats blew out the Mountaineers, 79-65.  We'll take Mount St. Mary's to avenge that loss this afternoon, as the Bobcats have covered just 10 of 34 as favorites vs. foes they defeated earlier in the season.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3:40 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Clippers minus the points over Detroit.  The Pistons have been on a roll, with 11 ATS wins in their last 13 games.  The Clippers -- notwithstanding their home loss Wednesday to the Pelicans -- have also been playing well, with 21 ATS wins in their last 31.  We'll take the Clips to bounce back off their loss, as they're 11-4 ATS at home off a SU home loss.  And Detroit is 1-7 ATS on the road vs. a foe off a SU home loss.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Rice Owls + the points over South Florida.  The Owls fell, 81-73, at South Florida last month.  We'll grab the points with the revenge-minded home underdog, as the Bulls are 15-33-2 ATS when playing a revenge-minded foe, including 0-10-1 ATS when priced from -3 to -13 points.  Take Rice.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Yale Bulldogs minus the points over Cornell.  The Bulldogs have ripped off 8 straight wins and covers since losing by 15 at Kansas on December 22.  I won't step in front of this freight train, and especially not in Ivy League play where it is 14-2 SU/ATS its last 16.  The Bulldogs have completely dominated the Big Red, as they're 18-2 straight-up, and 15-5 ATS in the last 20 meetings.  And Cornell has struggled as an Ivy League dog of more than 4 points, as it's gone 4-21 SU and 8-17 ATS.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the North Florida Ospreys minus the points over Central Arkansas.  The Bears got the $$$ as a 7-point underdog at Jacksonville, on Thursday.  But off that ATS win, we'll fade the Bears, as they're a brutal 13-35-2 ATS off a point spread win, including 1-10 ATS vs. foes off back-to-back losses.  The Ospreys did lose their two previous games against Austin Peay and North Alabama, but they're a solid 10-4 ATS at home off a SU/ATS loss.  We'll lay the points with North Florida.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Michigan State Spartans minus the points over Illinois.  Tom Izzo's troops are 6-6 in Big 10 Conference play.  We'll take Michigan State minus the points, as they're 52-20-2 ATS in Big 10 home games when they had a .500 (or worse) conference record.  Lay the points.

At 1:30 pm, our selection is on the Navy Midshipmen + the points over Army.  The Black Knights have been unreliable as a favorite, as they're 17-25 ATS, including 5-15 ATS when priced from -2.5 to -5.5 points.  And they're also a woeful 2-8 ATS off a straight-up win, and 5-11-1 ATS their last 17 at home.  Take Navy + the points.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Vanderbilt Commodores + the points over South Carolina.  The Commodores were blown out, 109-77, by Kentucky on Tuesday.  We'll take Vandy to bounce back as SEC double-digit underdogs have gone 151-95 ATS in conference games off a loss by 12+ points.  Take Vanderbilt.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the George Washington Revolutionaries + the points over Loyola Chicago.  The Ramblers have won 3 straight after besting George Mason, 85-79, on Wednesday.  They're favored on the road at George Washington, and we'll happily take the points, as the Ramblers have covered just 5 of 18 away from home when installed as a favorite, including 0-5 ATS vs. foes off back to back losses.  Even worse for Loyola:  it's 3-19 ATS off a win by 6 or less points, including 0-10 ATS off an ATS win.  Take George Washington.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
