01-17-21 | CS Bakersfield +2 v. Hawaii | Top | 83-72 | Win | 100 | 15 h 9 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on CS Bakersfield +2 -109 CS Bakersfield (+2) is worth a look here as a small dog against Hawaii in Saturday's rematch. These two teams played last night and the Roadrunners took home the win 60-55. That's now 4 straight wins for Bakersfield. Rainbow Warriors couldn't get anything going offensively last night and I don't expect it to be any better in the second go around. If anything I think the Roadrunners win even easier in the rematch. Play CS Bakersfield +2! |

01-16-21 | Rams v. Packers -6.5 | Top | 18-32 | Win | 100 | 31 h 30 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Packers -6½ -110 The Packers (-6.5) are worth a look laying less than a touchdown at home on Saturday against the Rams. LA had an impressive win at Seattle over Wild Card weekend, but they had a number of guys get banged up. Aaron Donald is going to play but will he be 100%? It seems unlikely. Goff is also playing at less than 100%. That's the Rams two most important players. Green Bay is healthy and fresh after getting a bye and I just don't see them having much trouble here. Play the Packers -6.5! |

01-16-21 | CS Bakersfield v. Hawaii -1.5 | 60-55 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 21 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Hawaii -1½ -110 The Rainbow Warriors (-1.5) are worth a look as a slim home favorite against CS-Bakersfield in Friday's late night action on the college hardwood. Hawaii has only played 4 games and while the first two were cupcakes, they did show well in their two games at UC-Riverside. They won the first matchup 88-83 as a 6-point dog and while they lost the rematch they covered as a 5-point dog in a 68-70 loss. Big home court edge for Hawaii and I fully expect them to take this one. Play the Rainbow Warriors -1.5! |

01-15-21 | Clippers -6.5 v. Kings | 138-100 | Win | 100 | 31 h 37 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -6½ -105 The Clippers (-6.5) are worth a look as a road favorite against the Kings in Friday's NBA action. While LA has failed to cover each of their last 3 games, I think that's playing into the favorable number here. The biggest thing is the Kings are not playing well at all. Sacramento is just 2-6 SU in their last 8 games and have gone a dreadful 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games and that's with them playing their last 5 games at home. Play the Clippers -6.5! |
|||||||
01-15-21 | Hawks v. Jazz -6 | Top | 92-116 | Win | 100 | 30 h 45 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -6 -105 The Jazz (-6) are worth a look as a relatively cheap home favorite against the Hawks. Atlanta has really fallen off since their hot start and while they come in off a win at home against the 76ers, that was a depleted Philadelphia team they took down. Not to mention they shot just 37.4% from the field in the win, marking their 3rd straight game where they shot worse than 38%. Utah on the other hand is rolling. The Jazz have have won and covered 3 straight and are getting it done on both sides of the ball. Play Utah -6! |
|||||||
01-13-21 | Pelicans v. Clippers -6 | Top | 106-111 | Loss | -105 | 31 h 44 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Clippers -6 -105 The Clippers (-6) are worth a look here as a home favorite against the Pelicans in Wednesday's NBA action. While LA has been hit or miss here of late, I'm confident the Clippers will show up with a big effort here in a game that will be televised on ESPN. You also have to look at how New Orleans is playing right now and it's not good. Pelicans have lost 3 straight and are a disappointing 4-5 overall. We know they will be without starting point guard Lonzo Ball and there's a chance they could be without both starters in the backcourt, as shooting guard Eric Bledsoe is questionable to play. Play the Clippers -6! |
|||||||
01-13-21 | Nets v. Knicks +5 | 116-109 | Loss | -105 | 28 h 24 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Knicks +5 -105 The Knicks (+5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Nets in Wednesday's NBA action. As difficult as it may be to back New York after their last 3 games, where they got absolutely destroyed and failed to break 90 points in all 3 games, I'm confident the Knicks will be ready for this game against one of their biggest rivals. As for Brooklyn they have not been playing great. While they come in off a win over the Nuggets they will be on no rest and still without 2 of their best players in Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie. Play the Knicks +5! |
|||||||
01-12-21 | Spurs v. Thunder +2 | 112-102 | Loss | -103 | 26 h 16 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Thunder +2 -103 The Thunder (+2) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Spurs in Tuesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with Oklahoma City right now. The Thunder have won and covered each of their last 3 games, winning all 3 outright as a dog. Spurs are also in a tough spot here. San Antonio is going to be without their best player in DeRozan and are also playing their 5th and final game of a 5-game road trip. Play the Thunder +2! |
|||||||
01-12-21 | Miami-FL -2 v. Boston College | 62-84 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 26 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Miami-FL -2 -105 The Hurricanes (-2) are worth a look as a small road favorite against Boston College in Tuesday's ACC action on the college hardwood. Miami comes in at 5-5, but injuries really hurt them early on. The Hurricanes have been playing much better of late, despite a 1-3 record in their last 4 games. The 3 losses in this stretch were a 2-point setback at Va Tech, a 1-point loss at home to Clemson and a 2-point loss at home to UNC. They snapped the losing streak on Saturday with a 64-59 upset win at NC State. Look for Miami to stay hot against a BC team that just can't figure out how to win games. The Eagles are just 2-9 and 0-5 in ACC play. Play the Hurricanes -2! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Pacers v. Kings +4 | 122-127 | Win | 100 | 30 h 20 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Kings +4 -100 The Kings (+4) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Pacers. Most will look to fade Sacramento here as they are just 1-5 SU in their last 6 and have failed to cover 5 straight. Thing is the Kings are catching the Pacers at the right time. Indiana has benefited a ton from playing 7 of their first 9 games at home. Look for them to come out a bit flat here in their first game on a West Coast trip. Play the Kings +4! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Ohio State +9 v. Alabama | Top | 24-52 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 18 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Ohio State +9 -109 Ohio State (+9) is worth a shot as a big dog against Alabama in the National Championship Game tonight. Not saying the Crimson Tide shouldn't be favored, but no way should they be laying more than a touchdown in this one. Buckeyes showed just how good they are in their 49-28 thrashing of Clemson, while I think more was to be expected from Alabama in their game against Notre Dame. Buckeyes have also gone 21-7 ATS in their last 28 as a dog of 3.5 to 10 points. Play Ohio State +9! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Knicks v. Hornets -4 | Top | 88-109 | Win | 100 | 27 h 20 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Hornets -4 -105 The Hornets (-4) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Knicks. While these two teams come into this game with the same 5-5 record, but they are headed in different directions. Charlotte has won and covered 3 straight and are averaging 111.0 ppg in this stretch. The Knicks have lost and failed to cover each of their last 2 and scored a mere 89 points in both games. I'll take the better team at this price all day long. Play the Hornets -4! |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Colorado v. Utah +3.5 | Top | 65-58 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 38 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Utah +3½ -110 The Utes (+3.5) are worth a look as small home dog against the Buffaloes. The books are begging you to take Colorado here. Utah comes in having lost 3 straight and are just 1-3 in Pac-12 play. Thing is two of those losses came on the road to UCLA and USC. The other was a mere 6-point home loss to Oregon. Utah is going to be the much more motivated team here at home in desperate need of a win, while the Buffs could be in for a bit of a letdown off their big win over the Ducks. Play Utah +3.5! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Indiana v. Nebraska +7 | Top | 84-76 | Loss | -108 | 24 h 51 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Nebraska +7 -108 Nebraska (+7) is worth a look here as a near double-digit home dog against the Hoosiers. It's been a rough go for the Cornhuskers in Big Ten play. Nebraska is winless in conference play at 0-4, but they did just cover at home against Michigan State and while they didn't cover in losses at Wisconsin and at home against Michigan, they were right there in both games. They lost by 14 as a 13.5-point dog at Wisconsin and by just 11 at home to Michigan as a 7.5-point dog. This is also a tough spot for Indiana playing their second straight on the road and playing on just two days of rest after that grueling double-overtime loss at Wisconsin. Play Nebraska +7! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Bulls +11.5 v. Clippers | 127-130 | Win | 100 | 25 h 37 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Bulls +11½ -101 The Bulls (+11.5) are worth a look as a double-digit dog against the Clippers in Sunday's NBA action. The books just don't want to give this Chicago team any kind of respect and it's turned them into a covering machine. The Bulls have covered the number in each of their last 4 games and 7 of their last 8 overall. This team is clearly playing with a chip on their shoulder. As for the Clippers, they have kind of just been going through the motions early on and I could see them struggling to get up for this one. Play the Bulls +11.5! |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Jazz v. Pistons +7.5 | Top | 96-86 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 37 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons +7½ -105 The Pistons (+7.5) are worth a look here as a pretty sizeable home dog against the Jazz. Detroit just pulled off a big upset win at home in their last game, beating the Suns 110-105 as a 8-point dog. It was the Pistons 4th cover in their last 5 games. Utah comes in off a huge upset win at Milwaukee, but with the Jazz on just 1 day of rest and playing their 5th straight on the road, I look for them to struggle to muster up the energy needed to turn this into a blowout. Look for Detroit to keep it close and maybe pull off the upset. Play the Pistons +7.5! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Suns v. Pacers -2.5 | Top | 125-117 | Loss | -109 | 28 h 42 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Pacers -2½ -109 The Pacers (-2.5) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Suns in Saturday's NBA action. For whatever reason the books just don't want to give this Indiana team the respect they deserve. Pacers are 6-2 SU and 6-2 ATS in their first 8 games They couldn't be catching Phoenix in a better spot, as the Suns will be playing their second straight on the road on no rest after last night's OT loss at Detroit. While Phoenix will be running on fumes, the Pacers are playing on two days rest and have had to do almost no traveling early, as this is their 6th home game in their last 7 contests. Play Indiana -2.5! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Northern Illinois v. Miami-OH -7 | 58-70 | Win | 100 | 20 h 41 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Miami-OH -7 -108 The RedHawks (-7) should have no problem covering as a decently priced home favorite against Northern Illinois in Saturday's college hoops action out of the MAC. Big get right game for Miami (OH) coming off back-to-back losses and the Huskies are just the team for them to get right against. Northern Illinois is a mere 1-8 on the season and that lone win came against an awful Chicago State team that is ranked No. 356 in KenPom. Play the RedHawks -7! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Richmond -5 v. George Mason | 77-57 | Win | 100 | 19 h 41 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Richmond -5 -108 The Spiders (-5) are worth a look as a short road favorite against George Mason in Saturday's early college hoops action out of the A-10. Richmond has yet to string together back-to-back wins in conference play and you can bet that's going to be on their minds, as they look to build off Wednesday's big win at home over Rhode Island. The Patriots are just not on the same level as the Spiders and I really think they will struggle to even make a game of it. Richmond can play their "C" game and still beat George Mason by 6 or more. Play the Spiders -5! |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Ohio State v. Rutgers -2.5 | Top | 79-68 | Loss | -108 | 19 h 41 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Rutgers -2½ -108 Rutgers (-2.5) is worth a look here as a small home favorite against Ohio State in Saturday's early college hoops action out of the Big Ten. This is just too good a price to pass up with the Scarlet Knights at home. Even more so when you factor in how motivated Rutgers is going to be for this game coming off back-to-back losses dropping them to just 3-3 in Big Ten play after they started out 3-1. Ohio State is better than expected, but are just 2-3 in conference play with a 0-3 mark on the road. Buckeyes just aren't built to win away from home in this league, especially against a top tier team like the Scarlet Knights. Play Rutgers -2.5! |
|||||||
01-08-21 | Hornets +6 v. Pelicans | 118-110 | Win | 100 | 28 h 13 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Hornets +6 -100 Charlotte (+6) is worth a look as a road dog against the Pelicans in Friday's NBA action. The Hornets will be riding a wave of momentum into this game, as they snapped a 3-game skid with a convincing 102-94 win at Atlanta as a 5.5-point dog. On the flip side, New Orleans is coming off back-to-back losses and have really been overvalued by the books early on. The Pelicans are just 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games. They are also just 1-3 ATS at home this season. Play the Hornets +6! |
|||||||
01-08-21 | Suns v. Pistons +7 | Top | 105-110 | Win | 100 | 28 h 46 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons +7 -100 The Pistons (+7) are worth a look as a home dog against the Suns in Friday's NBA action. Really look for Phoenix to struggle to get up for this game against a Detroit team that is just 1-7 on the season. Making it even harder to get up for the Pistons is the fact that this is the first of a back-to-back for the Suns with a much bigger game on deck against a red-hot Pacers team. Pistons are getting healthy for this one with Rose and Josh Jackson expected back. They might not have what it takes to win, but I fully expect them to give Phoenix a run for their money. Play Detroit +7! |
|||||||
01-07-21 | Wolves v. Blazers -10 | 117-135 | Win | 100 | 30 h 7 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Blazers -10 -105 The Blazers (-10) are worth a look as a double-digit home favorite against the Timberwolves in Thursday's NBA action. Good spot here to back Portland. Blazers come in having lost 2 straight and 3 of their last 4. The most recent being a 108-111 loss at home to the Bulls as a 9.5-point favorite. We should get a max effort here from Portland and that should be more than enough for them to make easy work of an awful Timberwolves team that continues to struggle to be competitive without Karl Anthony-Towns. Play the Blazers -10! |
|||||||
01-07-21 | 76ers -2 v. Nets | Top | 109-122 | Loss | -106 | 28 h 39 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -2 -106 The 76ers (-2) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Nets on Thursday. Philadelphia will be playing in the second game of a back-to-back, but that's not as big of a setback as Brooklyn playing without Kevin Durant. 76ers are also 7-1 to start the season and have covered 4 of their last 5. This line should be more. Play Philadelphia -2! |
|||||||
01-07-21 | Iowa v. Maryland +5 | Top | 89-67 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 38 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Maryland +5 -110 Maryland (+5) is worth a look here as a decently priced home dog against Iowa in Thursday's Big Ten matchup. As good as the Hawkeyes have been, winning on the road in this conference is no easy task. It's not an ideal spot for Iowa coming off a huge road win against a ranked Rutgers team. Hawkeyes could also be without starter Connor McCaffery. While McCaffery doesn't score a lot, he does all the dirty work and is by far the Hawks best post passer. Look for the Terps to give Iowa all they can handle in this one. Play Maryland +5! |
|||||||
01-06-21 | Wizards +6 v. 76ers | 136-141 | Win | 100 | 27 h 2 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Wizards +6 -102 The Wizards (+6) are worth a look as a road dog against the 76ers in Wednesday's NBA action. Philadelphia comes in having won and covered each of their last 4 games, but this is a really bad spot for the 76ers in the front end of a back-to-back with a much better team on deck in the Nets. Washington has also been playing much better of late. Wizards have won their last two after starting out 0-5 and both of those came on the road, including a 123-122 win at Brooklyn as a 7-point dog. Play Washington +6! |
|||||||
01-05-21 | Jazz v. Nets -2 | Top | 96-130 | Win | 100 | 27 h 2 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -2 -102 The Nets (-2) are worth a look at home against the Jazz. There's a chance Brooklyn will be without KD, as he's potentially facing a 7-day quarantine for Covid exposure, but even without him I like the Nets to win and cover against Utah. The Nets are going to come out fired up after losing 4 of their last 5 and are catching the Jazz in a tough spot playing their second road game in 3 days after playing at SA on Sunday. Utah is just 12-31 ATS last 43 games on the road vs top tier teams that are shooting 46% or better from the field, while also holding opponents to 43% or worse from the field. Play the Nets -2! |
|||||||
01-04-21 | Kings v. Warriors +2.5 | 106-137 | Win | 100 | 30 h 25 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Warriors +2½ -105 The Warriors (+2.5) are worth a look as a small home dog against the Kings. Golden State will be on no rest after playing the Blazers last night, but I still like them at this price. Steph Curry scored a career-high 62 in the win over Portland Sunday and he's playing with a chip on his shoulder right now as people are bashing him for the Warriors slow start. Thing is, Golden State is 3-3, but two of those losses were on the road against two of the best teams in the East in the Nets and Bucks without one of their best players in Draymond Green. Kings are a decent team, but have lost 3 of 4 and simply should not be favored on the road in this one. Play the Warriors +2.5! |
|||||||
01-04-21 | West Virginia v. Oklahoma State | Top | 87-84 | Win | 100 | 30 h 47 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on West Virginia PK -110 The Mountaineers (PK) are worth a look here as a pick'em on the road against Oklahoma State. West Virginia is one of the best teams in the country. They are 8-3 with their 3 losses coming against Gonzaga, Kansas and Oklahoma. The most recent was against the Sooners. They just dug themselves too big a hole early, falling behind 38-20 at the half. They rallied but just didn't have enough in the tank, losing 71-75. Expect a much better start in this game. Also, bit of a letdown spot for Oklahoma State coming off a huge upset win on the road in OT against Texas Tech. Play West Virginia PK! |
|||||||
01-04-21 | Pacers +1.5 v. Pelicans | 118-116 | Win | 100 | 23 h 50 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers +1½ -105 The Pacers (+1.5) are worth a look as basically a pick'em on the road against the Pelicans. Indiana is coming off a shocking 102-106 loss at home to the Knicks as a 10-point favorite, but some of that was just them not showing up against a bad team. That outcome only makes me like them more here, as this is one of the best teams noone is talking about. The Pelicans are a good team, but a bit overvalued in my mind. Play the Pacers +1.5! |
|||||||
01-04-21 | Knicks v. Hawks -6 | Top | 113-108 | Loss | -100 | 28 h 55 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Hawks -6 -100 Atlanta (-6) is worth a look as they host the Knicks in Monday's NBA action. The Hawks are showing value here coming off an ugly 91-96 loss to the Cavs on Saturday. While that's a game Atlanta probably should have won, them not producing at their normal level shouldn't have come as a surprise. That was an awful spot for the Hawks playing on no rest after laying it all on the line for a second straight game against the Nets. The Knicks are 3-3 to start the year, which is a bit of a surprise, but also nothing to overreact to. The talent simply isn't there. Look for Atlanta to rebound and win here with relative ease. Play the Hawks -6! |
|||||||
01-03-21 | Lakers v. Grizzlies +11 | Top | 108-94 | Loss | -109 | 27 h 42 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +11 -109 The Grizzlies (+11) are worth a look as a double-digit dog against the Lakers. Memphis showed they aren't going to just lay down after losing star point guard Ja Morant to an injury, as they just went on the road and blasted the Hornets 108-93 in their last game. The Lakers have won 4 of 5 and are just so much better than a lot of the teams they play. This just feels like one of those games where they just go through the motions for 3 quarters and try to pull out a win late. Play the Grizzlies +11! |
|||||||
01-03-21 | Packers -4.5 v. Bears | 35-16 | Win | 102 | 33 h 18 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Packers -4½ +102 The Packers (-4.5) are worth a look as a short road favorite against the Bears. Green Bay needs this game to clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC, while the Bears can earn a Wild Card spot with a victory. The fact that Chicago has something to play and have looked good over the last month, I think it has the Bears getting too much respect here. Chicago's simply feasted on some bad teams, who all play little to no defense. Aaron Rodgers is just too good to lose a game like this. Play Green Bay -4.5! |
|||||||
01-03-21 | Cowboys -1 v. Giants | Top | 19-23 | Loss | -115 | 32 h 60 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Cowboys -1 -115 The Cowboys (-1) are worth a look as they go on the road to face the Giants in a big game that could propel one of these teams to a division title if Washington were to lose at Philadelphia later tonight. Dallas comes in having won 3 straight and have scored 30+ points in each of those victories. The Giants have lost 3 straight and scored a combined 26 points in those 3 games. I just don't see New York being able to keep pace offensively in this one. Play the Cowboys -1! |
|||||||
01-02-21 | Kings +4.5 v. Rockets | Top | 94-102 | Loss | -100 | 25 h 25 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Kings +4½ -100 The Kings (+4.5) is worth a look in Saturday's NBA action that has them playing at Houston for the second consecutive game. Sacramento came up painfully short in a 3-point loss on Thursday, but I like them to not only come back and cover in the rematch, but win this game outright. Rockets are still learning how to play together with all the new pieces and they just don't play enough defense to be trusted. Play the Kings +4.5! |
|||||||
01-01-21 | Blazers -4 v. Warriors | Top | 123-98 | Win | 100 | 31 h 16 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers -4 -110 The Blazers (-4) are worth a look here as a relatively small road favorite against the Warriors. Even with Draymond Green set to play for Golden State, this is just not a good team right now. They simply aren't shooting the ball well from behind the 3-point line. That includes Steph Curry. Wiggins and Oubre Jr are jacking it up all over the place and not producing. Wiggins is shooting 36.8% from the field and Oubre is a pathetic 26% from the field. Portland just has too much fire-power with Lillard and McCollum. Play the Blazers -4! |
|||||||
01-01-21 | St. Peter's -5.5 v. Canisius | Top | 58-70 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 45 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on St. Peter's -5½ -105 St. Peter's (-5.5) is worth a look in Friday's MAAC matchup at Canisius. The Peacocks are hands down the better team in this one and winning by 6 here won't be a problem. The Golden Griffins are just 1-3 on the season and have lost 3 straight. The two most recent being a 18 point and 28 point loss to Monmouth, who is rated worse than the Peacocks at KenPom. Play St. Peter's -5.5! |
|||||||
12-31-20 | Pelicans -4.5 v. Thunder | 113-80 | Win | 100 | 29 h 41 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Pelicans -4½ -110 The Pelicans (-4.5) are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Thunder. New Orleans is just 2-2, but have played a really tough schedule to start out the season. They have played 3 of their first 4 on the road against the Raptors, Heat and Suns and hosted the Spurs. OKC will easily be the worst team they have faced so far and I just don't see them losing this game and 4.5 isn't a big number to cover. Play the Pelicans -4.5! |
|||||||
12-31-20 | 76ers -2.5 v. Magic | Top | 116-92 | Win | 100 | 27 h 14 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -2½ -105 The 76ers (-2.5) are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Magic on Thursday. Orlando has started out 4-0 and are starting to get some buzz, but let's not overreact. The Magic beat the Heat in their opener, but the other 3 wins are against sub-par teams with two coming against an awful Wizards team. 76ers have won 3 of 4 and are just the better team and this is a great price to back them here. Play Philadelphia -2.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on San Diego +14 -105 The Toreros (+14) are worth a look here as a double-digit dog against San Francisco. San Diego comes into this game at 1-3, while the Dons are 6-4. I just feel it has SF laying a few more than they should be against a conference foe. Not to mention the Dons are in a massive lookahead spot with a trip to No. 1 Gonzaga on deck Saturday. Play San Diego +14! |

12-30-20 | Hawks v. Nets -6.5 | Top | 141-145 | Loss | -100 | 28 h 25 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Nets -6½ +102 The Nets (-6.5) are worth a look in Wednesday's NBA action that has Brooklyn hosting the Hawks. While Atlanta has been impressive in their 3-0 start, their 3 wins have come against the Bulls, Grizzlies and Pistons. The fact that the Hawks are undefeated and that the Nets have lost their last two games, pretty much guarantees we get a max effort from Brooklyn in this one. I just don't think the Hawks will be able to keep pace, as this Nets team can really lock you down defensively when they are engaged. Play the Nets -6.5! |

12-30-20 | Butler +6 v. Providence | 55-71 | Loss | -115 | 25 h 22 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Butler +6 -115 Butler (+6) is worth a look in Wednesday's college hoops action. These two teams played last Wednesday at Butler and the Bulldogs won that matchup 70-64. I'm not saying Butler will pull of the sweep and win this one too, but I just can't pass up on the 6-points with the Bulldogs in this one. There's a chance Butler could be even stronger for the rematch, as Aaron Thompson, one of their best players, is questionable to return after missing the last 3 games. Play the Bulldogs +6! |

12-29-20 | Bulls v. Wizards -4 | Top | 115-107 | Loss | -112 | 29 h 52 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards -4 -112 The Wizards (-4) are worth a look as a small home favorite against the Bulls. I'm not sure why Washington isn't favored by more in this matchup. While both teams are 0-3 to start the season, Wizards have been much more competitive in their defeats. Not to mention all 3 of the Bulls losses came on their home floor. Chicago just doesn't play enough defense to be taken seriously on the road against any team. Play Washington -4! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Mercer -2 -111 Mercer (-2) is worth a look as a slim home favorite against Wofford in Tuesday's college hoops action. The Bears have been impressive early on. Mercer is 7-1 with their only loss coming by single digits on the road to a good Georgia State team. Wofford has lost 3 of their last 4 and have just one win vs a D-I opponent and that was against a sub-par Coastal Carolina team. Play Mercer -2! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Miami-FL +2½ -105 The Hurricanes (+2.5) are worth a look here as a dog against the Cowboys. I know Miami has some key guys sitting out on defense, but the Hurricanes still have more than enough talent on that side of the ball to keep this Oklahoma State offense in check. Miami also has a massive edge at the most important position on the field with their quarterback D'Eriq King going up against the Cowboys Spencer Sanders. The wrong team is favored here. Play the Hurricanes +2.5! |

12-28-20 | Rockets +8.5 v. Nuggets | 111-124 | Loss | -110 | 30 h 55 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Rockets +8½ -110 The Rockets (+8.5) are worth a look here as a big road dog against the Nuggets. I just think there's a ton of value with Houston because of all the guys they are missing due to Covid. They still got Harden and a good enough supporting cast to be competitive against most teams. We saw that in their opener when they lost by just 2-points at Portland as a 7.5-point dog. Denver is also a team I think is a bit overvalued coming into the year because of their deep bubble run. We already saw the Nuggets lose outright as a 8-point favorite at home to the Kings and by 13 as a mere 4-point dog at home to the Clippers. Play the Rockets +8.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills -7 -105 The Bills (+7) are worth a look here as a touchdown favorite on the road against the Patriots. Just because Buffalo has locked up the AFC East doesn't mean there isn't more to play for. The Bills still got a shot at the No. 2 seed, which would ensure another home game if they can win on Wild Card weekend. Also, if there's a game they are going to lay down in, it's next week against the Dolphins. Not at home against the Patriots on Monday Night Football. New England just doesn't have the offense to keep this close. Play the Bills -7! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Minnesota +1½ -110 The Gophers (+1.5) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Spartans. I get Michigan State is 0-2 and are desperate for a win, but they are 0-2 for a reason and it's extremely tough to win on the road in the Big Ten, especially when you play as little defense as what the Spartans have played so far in conference action. Minnesota just pulled off a big home upset against an elite Iowa team and I think they ride that momentum to a win here. Play Minnesota +1.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons +8½ -110 The Pistons (+8.5) are worth a look here as a big road dog against the Hawks. The betting public is going to see that Detroit is going to be sitting out both Blake Griffin and Derrick Rose and run to the ticket window to lay the big number with Atlanta, but the books know this. Pistons aren't just going to lay down and the Hawks are primed for a letdown in this spot. Atlanta will have a hard time taking this game seriously with Griffin and Rose out and they got two big games at Brooklyn on deck Wednesday and Friday. Play Detroit +8.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on 76ers -6 -105 The 76ers (-6) are worth a look here as a mere 6-point road favorite against the Cavs. Philadelphia beat the Wizards 113-107 in their opener and destroyed the Knicks 109-89 on Saturday. No reason not to think the 76ers won't make easy work of another sub-par team in Cleveland. While both teams will be playing on no rest, the Cavs are at a much bigger disadvantage as their game yesterday with Detroit went to double-overtime. All 5 starters for Cleveland logged at least 38 minutes with 4 playing 42 or more. Just won't be enough gas in the tank for the Cavs to keep this competitive. Play the 76ers -6! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Pelicans -5 -105 New Orleans (-5) is worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Spurs. This Pelicans team should be a big factor in the Western Conference this year with a healthy Zion Williamson. New Orleans got the season started off with a big 113-99 win at Toronto as a 4-point dog, but lost on Christmas Day to a really good Miami team on the road. Pelicans finally get to play at home and should take care of a Spurs team that has looked good, but are playing their 3rd game in 5 days and second of back-to-back. Play New Orleans -5! |

12-27-20 | Missouri State v. Northern Iowa -8 | Top | 79-59 | Loss | -108 | 26 h 42 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Northern Iowa -8 -108 Northern Iowa (-8) is worth a look in Sunday's Missouri Valley action that has the Panthers hosting Missouri State. UNI has gotten off to a disappointing 1-4 start, but a big reason for that is their schedule was brutal to start the year. All 4 losses have come against teams who could be playing in the NCAA Tournament in WKU, St. Mary's, Utah St and Richmond. They were competitive in all 4 losses. The Bears are 3-0, but have played nobody and are really outclassed in this one. A motivated and desperate UNI team should have no problem here winning by double-digits. Play the Panthers -8! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers +2½ -112 Pittsburgh (+2.5) is worth a look here as a small home dog against the Colts. This is the perfect time to jump back on the Steelers bandwagon. I know the Steelers have lost 3 straight and just lost as a two touchdown favorite last week at Cincinnati, but they should not be a home dog here. This is still one of the top teams in the league and I confident they get things back on track with a win against Indy. Play Pittsburgh +2.5! |

12-26-20 | Cavs v. Pistons -2 | Top | 128-119 | Loss | -105 | 27 h 29 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Pistons -2 -105 The Pistons (-2) are worth a look here as a small home favorite against the Cavs. I just think this is a great price to back Detroit and the perfect spot to fade Cleveland off their opening win over what figures to be an awful Charlotte team. Pistons outshot the T-Wolves in their opener, but Minnesota made 24 free throws to the Pistons 3. That won't happen again here. Play Detroit -2! |

20* SHARP PLAY on 49ers +5 -105 The 49ers (+5) are worth a look here as a decent road dog against division rival Arizona. With SF having played their last few home games at Arizona's stadium, the home field edge is not as strong as it normally would be. I also think there's a perception here that because this game means everything to Arizona in terms of making the playoffs and nothing to SF, that the 49ers are going to not show up. I don't think that will be the case at all. Plenty of motivation for SF to play spoiler. Play the 49ers +5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Cleveland State -1 -108 Cleveland State (-1) is worth a look here as basically a pick'em at home against Youngstown State. The Vikings got off to a slow start, as they lost their first 3 games, but those were against two quality MAC teams in Toledo and Ohio and a much better Ohio State, who they took to the wire in a mere 6-point loss. They have since won back-to-back games over Fort Wayne and they stay hot here against the Penguins. Play Cleveland State -1! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -9½ +101 Milwaukee (-9.5) is worth a look as a big home favorite against the Warriors on Christmas Day. I know this might seem like a lot of points for the Bucks to be laying, but they really should win here by double-digits rather easily. We know we are going to get a big effort from Milwaukee after losing their opener and while Golden State also figures to play hard, they just don't have the talent to compete, especially without Draymond Green. They lost to the Nets by 26 and it could have been much worse. Play the Bucks -9.5! |

12-25-20 | Marshall +5.5 v. Buffalo | Top | 10-17 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 22 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Marshall +5½ -110 The Thundering Herd (+5.5) are worth a look here as a pretty big dog against the Bulls. Buffalo put up some crazy stats against a soft schedule in their 5 MAC games, but were a complete no show in the title game against Ball State. I just think people are forgetting how bad the MAC is. Marshall didn't look much better losing to UAB in the C-USA title game, but in terms of talent the Herd are the much stronger team and I like them to win this game outright. Play Marshall +5.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin -1½ -110 The Badgers (-1.5) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Spartans. I just think the line here says it all. Even after getting blown out at Northwestern in their Big Ten opener, the betting public is going to be all over Michigan State as a home dog. I'll gladly take the other side and take my chances with a very good Wisconsin team that is built to win on the road in Big Ten play. Play the Badgers -1.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Pelicans +5 -100 The Pelicans (+5) are worth a look in the first of 5 NBA games on Christmas Day. There's plenty of hype with New Orleans this year with Zion Williamson a full go from the start, but clearly they still got some work to do to get some respect from the books. Part of it here is they are facing the reigning Eastern Conference champs in Miami. That's just it, the Heat just played in the Finals what seems like yesterday. They looked a little flat in their opening loss to the Magic and it could take a minute before they get back to playing like they did in the postseason. Pelicans are the more hungry team right now. Play New Orleans +5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Hawaii +11 -113 Hawaii (+11) is worth a look as a double-digit underdog against Houston in the New Mexico Bowl on Christmas Eve. This is just too many points for the Cougars to be laying in this one. Houston is far from full strength going into this game. They are still down 12-16 players, including 3 key guys who opted out (WR Marquez Stevenson, LB Grant Stuard, DL Payton Turner). Hawaii went just 3-5 ATS in their 8 games this season, but dogs with a losing ATS record have quite a track record in bowl games. They are cashing at a 59% rate since 2006. Rainbow Warriors aren't just good enough to cover, they can win this game. Play Hawaii +11! |

15* SHARP PLAY on South Florida -2½ -108 USF (-2.5) is worth a look here as a slim home favorite against the Shockers. This is just not the same Wichita State team as the previous years and I just feel they are still getting a little too much respect from the books. I like what I've seen out of this Bulls team. South Florida has won 4 straight and just beat Cincinnati on the road in their last game. This is just too good a price to pass up. Play the Bulls -2.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Ball State -5 -108 Ball State (-5) is worth a look here as a short road favorite against Western Michigan. I believe we are getting the Cardinals at a discount here due to them coming off a 10-point loss at Indiana State. This is just not a very good Broncos team this season. They did win their conference opener against Central Michigan, but they are way down. That's their only win against a D-I opponent. Look for Ball State to make easy work here. Play the Cardinals -5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers -14½ +100 The Steelers (-14.5) are worth a look as a big road favorite against the Bengals. I just think because Pittsburgh hasn't looked as good here the last few weeks, it has people hesitant to lay this many points on the road with them. I get it, but all signs here point to the Steelers running away with this one. Cincinnati can't do anything on the offensive side of the ball and the defense isn't much better. They have to play great and have a lot of breaks go their way just to make games competitive since losing rookie quarterback Joe Burrow. Play the Steelers -14.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Western Illinois +5½ -115 The Leathernecks (+5.5) are worth a look here as a slim dog against Tennessee Martin. Western Illinois is 1-4, but have played a really tough schedule. As for the Skyhawks, they are 3-0 but have played one of the easiest schedules. They could also be 1-2, as they needed double-overtime to win at home against Evansville and snuck out a 2-point win over SE Missouri State. I'm not so sure this line shouldn't be closer to a pick'em. Play Western Illinois +5.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Oklahoma State +8½ -110 Oklahoma State (+8.5) is worth a look in Sunday's Big 12 matchup at Texas. I just think this is a few too many points for the Longhorns to be laying in this one. Oklahoma State had started out 6-0 before losing at home to TCU. Sure the loss looks bad, as it was a game they were expected to win, but they did lose by just 1-point. They got the offensive fire-power to hang with Texas and even win this game outright. Play Oklahoma State +8.5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Drake -5 -114 Drake (-5) is worth a look here as a short road favorite against South Dakota in Friday's college hoops action. This one is easy for me. These two teams already played once this season and the Bulldogs defeated the Coyotes by 16 points. They held South Dakota to a season-low 53 points. I just feel we are seeing the Coyotes getting a little bit a love here off a big upset of in-state rival South Dakota State. That was a nice win, but it also had both teams playing their 3rd game in 3 days and anything can happen in rivalry games. Play Drake -5! |

I know the Raiders technically are the only team in the playoff race, but I just think LV is in a bad place right now. They got multiple starters out on defense and I don't think firing the DC is going to make things any better on that side of the ball. It's a lack of talent more than it is coaching. There's also plenty of motivation for LA to play spoiler here in a prime time game. Play the Chargers +3.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on San Francisco +8 -113 San Francisco (+8) is worth a look here as a near double-digit dog on the road against Oregon. The Pac-12 has not looked great early on this season and while Oregon comes in 4-1, I don't think this is an elite team by any means. The Dons are more than capable of going into Oregon and giving the Ducks all they can handle. San Francisco has already secured a win over Virginia and beat a decent Nevada team by 25. They also just barely lost to Cal in their last game 70-72. Play San Francisco +8! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Marshall -6½ -108 Marshall (-6.5) is worth a look as a short home favorite against Toledo. The books just keep underestimating this Thundering Herd team. Marshall is 4-0 SU and have gone 3-0-1. Last time out they were a mere 3-point home favorite against a good Ohio team and won by 14. Now they face another top tier MAC team in Toledo and I just don't see a much different result. Marshall is lighting it up offensively and are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 after scoring 80 or more and 11-2 ATS last 13 off a in by 10 more. Play the Herd -6.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Georgia State -4½ -108 You really just need to look at the line to know that Georgia State (-4.5) is the play in this one. These two teams played at Mercer back on Nov. 30. A game the Bears won 86-69. Mercer also comes in a perfect 6-0 SU on the season. All of that and yet the Bears are a dog in the rematch. It's for good reason. This Georgia State team is every bit as talented as Mercer and now they have the home court edge. Panthers get their revenge and we get our cover. Play Georgia State -4.5! |

This is a talented team, but come in 0-2 after opening the season with games at UCLA and home vs Nevada. Cal Poly is 2-2, but one of those wins was a cupcake non-DI opponent and the other was against a bad San Jose State team. I look for the Toreros to win and win easy. Play San Diego -5! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Furman +6 -105 Furman (+6) is worth a look as they visit Alabama in Tuesday's college hoops action. The Paladins have 4 starters back from a 25-win team and are the clear-cut favorites to win the Southern Conference. They are 5-1 to start this season with their only loss coming by a mere 5-points at Cincinnati. Note they only lost by 5 to the Bearcats, despite Cincinnati going off and shooting 56% from the field. Alabama just hasn't looked as good as what people were expecting. They just don't have the shooting they did a year ago. At least they aren't making shots at the same rate. Crimson Tide are only shooting 40% from the field and 29% from deep. If they shoot like that in this game they will lose. Play Furman +6! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Loyola-Chicago +9½ -115 Loyola-Chicago (+9.5) is worth a look in Tuesday's game at Wisconsin. This might seem like a small number for the No. 12 ranked team to be laying at home against an unranked opponent, but the Ramblers are no joke. They return all 5 starters from a team that won 21-games last year. These two teams also play at ridiculously slow tempo, which makes the 9.5 a lot more valuable than it might seem. I expect Loyola Chicago to make a game of it. Play the Ramblers +9.5! |

Clemson has started out 5-0 with wins over Mississippi State, Purdue, Maryland and Alabama. Three of those by double-digits and the other by 8. Virginia Tech had that big win over Villanova early, but have come back to reality a bit. They just lost at home by 20-points to a Penn State team that isn't nearly as talented as what Clemson is.

20* SHARP PLAY on Browns +3½ -115 The Browns (+3.5) are worth a look on Monday Night Football. Cleveland will be hosting division rival Baltimore in a game you know the Browns have had circled after that ugly 38-6 loss they were dealt by the Ravens back in Week 1. These are two different teams since they played in September. Cleveland is surging off 4 straight wins. Baltimore is just 1-3 in their last 4 and while they did win their last game, it was against a bad Cowboys team who plays absolutely no defense. This is also a tough spot for the Ravens, who are playing their 3rd game in 13 days because of that Week 12 game against the Steelers getting pushed back almost a week. Play the Browns +3.5! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Maryland -1½ -110 Maryland (-1.5) is worth a look as a small home favorite against Rutgers in Monday's Big Ten opener. This line is begging you to take the Scarlet Knights. You have a ranked team in Rutgers as a dog against an unranked team in Maryland. Not to mention the Scarlet Knights are coming in off an impressive 79-69 win over Syracuse and the Terps fresh off an ugly 14-point loss to Clemson. I'm confident Maryland bounces back here. Rutgers only won 2 true road games all of last season and this is their first true road game of this year. Play Maryland -1.5! |

Marshall returns all 5 starters from last year and are a perfect 3-0 to start the new season, including an impressive 16-point win over a quality Wright State team. Ohio is a decent team and are 4-1 with their only loss by 2 to Illinois, but too much value here to pass up with the Thundering Herd. Play Marshall -3! |

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants +3 -113 The Giants (+3) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Cardinals. The public really has fallen in love with Kyler Murray and Arizona this year. Even though the Cardinals are reeling, they continue to get love from the books. I just don't think they should be a favorite in this one. Arizona has lost 3 straight and failed to cover 5 straight games. Murray just doesn't seem right and that's a problem with the lack of defense this Cardinals team plays. Not to mention the Giants are one of the best defensive teams in the league. Play New York +3! |

15* SHARP PLAY on Wright State +3 -110 Wright State (+3) is worth a look here as a small road dog against Bowling Green. Big time system in play favoring the Raiders. Road teams with a line of +3 to -3 who are coming off a blowout win by 20 or more against an opponents that has scored 75 or more in 3 straight games are 42-15 (74%) ATS over the last 5 seasons. Play Wright State +3! |

12-12-20 | Valparaiso -2.5 v. Central Michigan | Top | 79-84 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 45 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Valparaiso -2½ -110 The Crusaders (-2.5) are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Chippewas in Saturday's college hoops action. Valpo got off to a slow start with three straight losses to start the season, but it came against a tough schedule that included two power 5 opponents. They have responded with back-to-back wins and I look for them to make easy work against a pretty bad Central Michigan team. Chippewas only win on the season against Western Illinois, who is ranked No. 345 at KenPom and they only won that game by a mere 6-points. Play Valparaiso -2.5! |

12-12-20 | Georgia -13 v. Missouri | 49-14 | Win | 100 | 31 h 53 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Georgia -13 -110 The Bulldogs (-13) are worth a look in Saturday's SEC East clash with Missouri. Georgia deserves a lot of props for continuing to play hard despite the fact that their No. 1 goal of winning the SEC East and making it back to the playoffs are out of reach. A big reason for that is the recent addition of starting quarterback J.T. Daniels to the lineup. Had he been there from day one, this probably would be a playoff team. The offense has really come to life under Daniels and should have a field day against a Missouri defense that has struggled against every good offense they have faced. Play Georgia -13! |

12-11-20 | Rider +3 v. Manhattan | Top | 82-64 | Win | 100 | 25 h 39 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Rider +3 -108 The Broncs (+3) are worth a look as a small road dog against Manhattan. Great buy low spot on Rider in this one, as they have had quite a challenging schedule to start out the year playing on the road against both Syracuse and St. John's. They only lost by 3 against the Red Storm. As for Manhattan, I have them rated lower and the Jaspers are at a disadvantage having not played a game yet. Play Rider +3! |

12-11-20 | Appalachian State +5 v. Charlotte | 61-57 | Win | 100 | 24 h 39 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Appalachian State +5 -108 The Mountaineers (+5) are worth a look as they visit Charlotte on Friday night. These two teams played last year and Appalachian State won by 9 at home. This is an even stronger Mountaineers squad in 2020. On the flip side, I think the 49ers are down a notch or two from last season. Winning on the road is also a lot easier with all the limitations on fans. All things considered, I think App State should be favored here. Play the Mountaineers +5! |

12-10-20 | Cal-Riverside -7 v. Northern Arizona | Top | 74-50 | Win | 100 | 26 h 49 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Cal-Riverside -7 -120 UC Riverside (-7) is worth a look here at this price. The Highlanders should have no problem winning by double-digits on the road against Northern Arizona. The Lumberjacks have only played one game and were absolutely destroyed by Arizona 96-53. UC Riverside lost to a quality Pacific team in their opener, but fired right back with a 15 point upset win against Washington and cruised to a 20-point victory over Denver in their last game, who I would say is pretty equal in terms of talent to Northern Arizona. Play the Highlanders -7! |

12-09-20 | Marshall -5.5 v. College of Charleston | 84-72 | Win | 100 | 27 h 30 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Marshall -5½ -108 The Thundering Herd (-5.5) are worth a look as a slim road favorite against Charleston. Marshall is a team that got better and better as last season progressed and return all 5 starters. Charleston on the other hand returns just 1 starter from a team that only won 17 games and was a mere 4th in the Colonial Athletic. I really think Marshall should be laying at least double-digits in this one. Play the Herd -5.5! |

12-09-20 | Eastern Illinois v. Evansville +4.5 | 65-68 | Win | 100 | 26 h 27 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Evansville +4½ -107 The Purple Aces (+4.5) are worth a look as a home dog against Eastern Illinois. Evansville has gotten off to a rough start, losing each of their first 3 games, but could easily be 2-1 with a 3-point loss in one defeat and a 2OT setback in another. Eastern Illinois is just 2-3 and while they have played some quality teams tough, their only wins are against Chicago St and Green Bay (2OT). Too much value to pass up with the home team in this one. Play Evansville +4.5! |

12-09-20 | Providence v. TCU -2.5 | Top | 79-70 | Loss | -108 | 25 h 35 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on TCU -2½ -108 TCU (-2.5) is worth a look here as a slim home favorite against the Friars. I think this line reflects a lot of what these two teams were a year ago and not what they are this season. Providence lost two of their best players and have not looked great early on with blowout losses to both Indiana and Alabama. TCU on the other hand is much improved and it's shown early as they are 4-1 with their only loss by 4-points to a top tier Oklahoma team. Play TCU -2.5! |

12-08-20 | Illinois v. Duke -4 | 83-68 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 26 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Duke -4 -105 The Blue Devils (-4) are worth a look as they host Illinois. This might seem like a big number with how hyped this Fighting Illini team was coming into this season, but we just saw Illinois come up way short in a big showdown with Baylor, losing 82-69. Duke might not be as loaded as they have been, but there's no denying they still have a ton of talent. Play the Blue Devils -4! |

12-08-20 | Penn State +6 v. Virginia Tech | Top | 75-55 | Win | 100 | 26 h 56 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Penn State +6 -115 The Nittany Lions (+6) are worth a look as a pretty decent sized underdog against the Hokies. Virginia Tech is 4-0 and have that big overtime win over No. 3 Villanova, but I don't think they should be laying this many points against an equally talented Penn State team. Nittany Lions only loss came in OT to a good Seton Hall team. I wouldn't be shocked at all if Penn State won this game outright. Play the Nittany Lions +6. |

12-08-20 | Cowboys v. Ravens -8.5 | Top | 17-34 | Win | 100 | 28 h 51 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Ravens -8½ -102 The Ravens (-8.5) are worth a look as they host the Cowboys on Tuesday. Baltimore has lost 3 in a row and have been hit hard with Covid over the last couple of weeks, but they are getting a lot of guys back and should be ready to go for this one. Had these two teams played a few weeks ago, everyone would be on Baltimore at this price. I just don't get the love for Dallas. Cowboys can't stop the run, which is a big problem against Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense. Dallas also is depleted on the offensive line after losing two more starters in their last game. Play Baltimore -8.5! |

12-08-20 | Kent State +1.5 v. Detroit | 80-66 | Win | 100 | 24 h 56 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Kent State +1½ -110 The Golden Flashes (+1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em against Detroit. The Titans are getting a lot of love for playing a couple close games against Michigan State (76-83) and Notre Dame (70-78), but I just think that was more of those teams not really giving Detroit their full attention. You can say the same thing about Kent State, who in their last game only lost by 7 as a 18.5-point dog to Virginia. I just feel in terms of talent the Golden Flashes are the better team and should not be a dog here. Play Kent State +1.5! |

12-07-20 | Chattanooga v. Middle Tennessee | Top | 80-70 | Loss | -110 | 30 h 35 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Middle Tennessee PK -110 The Blue Raiders (PK) are worth a look at a pick'em on their home floor against Chattanooga. Middle Tennessee lost their first two, but got back on track in their last game with a 78-61 win over Murray State, which was their toughest test to date. The Mocs are 3-0, but have not played a team inside the Top 200 of the KenPom rankings. Blue Raiders should be a much bigger favorite here. Play Middle Tennessee PK! |

12-06-20 | Oklahoma -2.5 v. TCU | 82-78 | Win | 100 | 24 h 54 m | Show | |
15* SHARP PLAY on Oklahoma -2½ -108 The Sooners (-2.5) are worth a look here as a slim road favorite against TCU. I think Oklahoma is flying a bit under the radar. Sooners were better than anyone expected last year and returned a lot from that team. They didn't play their first game of this season until this past Thursday and they destroyed UTSA 105-66. TCU is 4-0, but haven't played anyone. Play Oklahoma -2.5! |

12-06-20 | Central Michigan v. Western Illinois +9.5 | Top | 79-73 | Win | 100 | 23 h 24 m | Show |
20* SHARP PLAY on Western Illinois +9½ -108 The Leathernecks of Western Illinois are worth a look as a big home dog (+9.5) to Central Michigan. There's just no way the Chippewas should be laying this kind of number, as they are sitting at 0-3 themselves. Leathernecks only loss was to Iowa and while it was ugly, they just had no answer for Luka Garza (41 points). Central Michigan doesn't have anyone close to Garza's ability. It will be much easier on both sides of the ball for the Leathernecks. Play Western Illinois +9.5! |
