15* SPURS/NUGGETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Spurs +4 -105

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a win and cover here as a road dog against the Nuggets. San Antonio just beat the Nuggets 111-103 at home on Wednesday. Typically that would signal a revenge play on Denver here, but I just don't trust the Nuggets at all with the injuries they are dealing with. At the same time, I think San Antonio is playing as well as any team in the NBA over the last 3 weeks. Spurs are 8-2 SU and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. A stretch in which their defense has not allowed a single opponent to shoot better than 43.5% from the field. Bet the Spurs +4! 

15* DELAWARE/HOFSTRA CBB SHARP PLAY on Delaware +12 -108

My money is on the Blue Hens to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Pride. Hofstra is getting a ton of love due to the fact that they are 10-3 overall with a perfect 7-0 record at home. It's got people overlooking the fact that Delaware is 4-2 on the road and are 4-1-1 ATS. Pride are 5-120-1 ATS last 26 at home vs a team that's won 60% or more of their road games. Bet the Blue Hens +12! 

15* CELTICS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Celtics +2 -110

My money is on the Celtics to easily cash in a win on the road against the Rockets. I get that Houston has won a couple here without Chris Paul, including a thrilling 113-109 victory against OKC on Christmas Day, but I really like what I'm seeing from Boston. I fully expect the Celtics to go on a big run the rest of the way. It started with that OT win over the 76ers and will continue with a win tonight. Bet the Celtics +2

15* UMKC/CREIGHTON CBB SHARP PLAY on UMKC +19½ -109

My money is on the Kangaroos to cash in as a big road dog against the Bluejays on Thursday. Creighton comes into this game off a 110-60 cupcake win at home against Coe and that puts them in the ideal fade spot, as the Bluejays are a mere 4-11 ATS in their last 15 off a SU win, 2-7 ATS in their last 9 after scoring 90+ points and 2-8 ATS last 10 off a SU win by more than 20 points. Bet UMKC +19.5! 

15* CAVS/GRIZZLIES NBA SHARP PLAY on Cavs +10½ -110

My money is on the Cavaliers to cash in an easy winner here as a double-digit dog against the Grizzlies. Memphis shouldn't be this big of a favorite against any team in the league with how they have been playing. The Grizzlies have won just 5 games since they beat the Spurs back on Nov. 21. They had just lost 5 straight before getting a win against the Lakers Sunday, but you have to wonder just how much of that was LA looking ahead to their big game against the Warriors on Christmas Day. Bet the Cavs +10.5! 

15* INDIANA ST/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on Indiana State +12 -109

My money is on the Sycamores to cash in a easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Horned Frogs. TCU is way overvalued right now, as they have covered 7 straight including a 20-point win at home over Indiana State back on 12/16. This game is in Honolulu and I'm expecting a much more competitive game. Bet the Sycamores! 

20* 76ERS/CELTICS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Celtics -3½ -105

My money is on the Celtics to cash in an easy win and cover at home against division rival Philadelphia. Boston has underachieved to this point, but are still one of the elite teams in the east and I expect them to play their best here at home against the 76ers. Boston is 7-1 at home against Philadelphia over the last 3 seasons, including a 105-87 blowout win earlier this season. Bet the Celtics -3.5!

15* HAWKS/PISTONS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pistons -9 -105

My money is on the Pistons to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Hawks. I'm expecting a big effort here from Detroit coming off an ugly loss at Charlotte where they scored a mere 89 points. Atlanta has given up 100+ in 5 straight games and are 3-14 on the season in road games, where they are getting outscored by 11.3 ppg. Bet the Pistons -9! 

15* CHARLOTTE/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on Charlotte +21½ -108

My money is on the 49ers to cover this massive spread in the opening round of the Diamond Head Classic in Honolulu. No question TCU is the better team, but this is really tough spot for them to show up and play at the level needed to win here by more than the number. Just too easy too look past Charlotte with all the distractions not only with being on vacation in Hawaii, but Christmas just a few days away. 49ers have an upset win as a 13-point dog over Oklahoma State and I'm confident they keep it close. Bet Charlotte +21.5

15* SETON HALL/MARYLAND CBB SHARP PLAY on Seton Hall +8½ -109

My money is on the Pirates to go into College Park and keep this well within the number set by the books. Maryland came into the season undervalued and simply were better than people thought. They have now covered 4 straight and 5 of their last 6 overall, which is why they are being asked to lay such a big price here against a quality Seton Hall team that has won 4 straight and are 7-1 in their last 8, with the only loss a 5-point defeat to Louisville. Bet the Pirates +8.5! 

15* LOYOLA-CHI/ST. JOE'S CBB SHARP PLAY on St. Joe's -3 -108

My money is on the Hawks to cash in a win and cover here at home against the Ramblers. Loyola is just way overvalued coming into this season after what they did a year ago. For evidence of that, all you have to do is look at their 4-7 ATS record. This is just too good a price to pass up on St. Joes at home. Don't be fooled by the Hawks 2-5 record in their last 7 games, as they have played a brutal schedule during this stretch. St Joes is 5-1 ATS last 6 off a SU loss and 9-4-1 ATS last 14 at home. Bet the Hawks -3! 

15* WAKE FOREST/TENNESSEE CBB SHARP PLAY on Wake Forest +19½ -108

My money is on the Demon Deacons to cash in an easy cover here as a massive road dog against the Volunteers. Tennessee has started out the season 9-1 with a perfect 6-0 record at home. The public has taken notice of this team and there's no doubt they are overvalued right now by oddsmakers. That's evident by the fact that despite the great overall record, Tennessee is just 4-4 ATS overall and a mere 1-3-1 ATS in their 5 lined home games. Bet Wake Forest +19.5! 

15* SOUTHERN UTAH/USC CBB SHARP PLAY on USC -11½ -110

My money is on the Trojans to easily win and cover here as a double-digit home favorite against the Thunderbirds. USC has covered 9 of their last 12 at home against a team with a losing road record and we can bank on a max effort here from the Trojans with them coming in off 4 straight losses. The key thing to note is only one of them came at home and that was too an elite Nevada team. Southern Utah is simply outclassed. Bet USC -11.5! 

15* PISTONS/HORNETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pistons +4 +103

My money is on the Pistons to cash in as a road dog against the Hornets on Friday. Detroit comes into this one off a huge 129-123 win at Minnesota, where they rallied from way back in the 4th quarter. They are 3-0-1 ATS last 4 and I like them to win outright here against a struggling Charlotte team. Hornets are just 4-5 in their last 9 and have only covered twice during this run, which includes a 1-6 ATS mark at home. Bet Detroit +4! 

15* WYOMING/EAST TENN STATE CBB SHARP PLAY on Wyoming +5½ -109

My money is on the Cowboys to easily cover as a 5.5-point dog against East Tennessee State in the opening round of the Sun Bowl Invitational. The Buccaneers have a 8-4 record, while Wyoming is a mere 3-7, but that all has to do with who these two teams have played. I think the Cowboys are the better team and fully expect them to win this game outright, but will gladly take the points for insurance. Bet Wyoming +5.5! 

20* ROCKETS/HEAT NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Rockets -3 -105

My money is on the Rockets to easily cash in a cover as a short road favorite against the Heat. Miami is playing on 3 days rest and the Rockets played yesterday. It's not going to matter. Houston is just too talented and are finally playing up to their potential. Maybe they don't win here by double-digits like they would if they had at least one day of rest, but I'm confident they get the job done and secure their 6th straight win. Bet the Rockets -3! 

15* YALE/MONMOUTH CBB SHARP PLAY on Yale -10½ -108

My money is on the Bulldogs to cash in an easy win and cover here as a double-digit road favorite against the Hawks. Yale is a respectable 5-3 on the season, while Monmouth is winless at 0-11. Two of the Bulldogs 3 losses are true road games against Duke and Memphis. They won at Cal and beat Miami. This is a complete mismatch. Bet Yale -10.5! 

15* WARRIORS/JAZZ NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz +3½ -109

My money is on Utah to cash in here as a home dog agains the Warriors. I just think the Jazz are going to want this one more and Utah is not exactly a fun or easy place for opposing teams to play. Golden State is basically just going through the motions, as they have to be a bit bored with the regular-season by now. The are 6-1 in their last 7 and got 4 home games on deck. I think they come out super flat here and Utah gets the outright win. Bet the Jazz +3.5! 

15* VALPARAISO/TEXAS A&M CBB SHARP PLAY on Valparaiso +11 -109

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

15* W MICHIGAN/DAYTON CBB SHARP PLAY on Western Michigan +12½ -108

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

15* WIZARDS/HAWKS NBA SHARP PLAY on Hawks +4½ -109

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

15* SHARP PLAY on Oakland +12½ -110

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

15* CHARLESTON/SIENA CBB SHARP PLAY on College of Charleston -5 -109

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

15* SIU-EDWARDSVILLE/DRAKE CBB SHARP PLAY on SIU-Edwardsville +14 -109

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

15* BUCKS/PISTONS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3½ -100

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

15* HEAT/PELICANS NBA SHARP PLAY on Heat +7½ -109

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

15* CHATTANOOGA/OLE MISS CBB SHARP PLAY on Chattanooga +19 -104

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

15* INDIANA ST/TCU CBB SHARP PLAY on TCU -14 -110

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

15* ROCKETS/GRIZZLIES NBA SHARP PLAY on Rockets -2½ -109

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

15* E WASHINGTON/STANFORD CBB SHARP PLAY on Eastern Washington +14 -107

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

15* FT WAYNE/AUSTIN PEAY CBB SHARP PLAY on IUPU Ft Wayne +3½ -108

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

15* MARSHALL/AKRON CBB SHARP PLAY on Marshall +4 -108

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

20* WARRIORS/KINGS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Warriors -8 -105

My money is on the Warriors to easily cash in a win and cover here on the road against the Kings. Golden State is coming off a humbling 20-point loss at home in a prime time game to the Raptors. Great teams don't take losing lightly and I expect a pissed off Warriors team to take the floor against Sacramento. Kings have been a great story, but they are completely outmatched here. Bet the Warriors -8! 

15* GREEN BAY/CREIGHTON CBB SHARP PLAY on Green Bay +18 -105

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

15* BULLS/MAGIC NBA SHARP PLAY on Bulls +5½ -110

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

20* MOREHEAD ST/SAMFORD CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Morehead State +9 -109

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

15* DENVER/WYOMING CBB SHARP PLAY on Denver +7½ -110

My money is on Pioneers to cash in a cover here as a decently priced road dog against the Cowboys. Neither team is very good. Denver is 3-7 and Wyoming is 3-6. We are simply seeing the Cowboys get some love here because they are off an upset win at home over South Carolina. I actually think that victory works in our favor, as they are primed for a letdown off that big win. Wyoming is also a mere 5-14 ATS last 2 seasons when listed as a favorite and a mere 3-11 in their last 14 as a home favorite. Bet Denver +7.5! 

20* BLAZERS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Rockets -6½ -105

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

20* MAGIC/MAVS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Magic +5½ -110

My money is on Orlando to cash in an easy cover here on the road against the Mavs. Dallas is getting way too much respect from the books off their big upset win at home over the Rockets. No surprise to see the Magic undervalued, as that's been the case for over a month now. Going back to Nov. 9th, Orlando is 11-3-1 ATS in the 15 games they have played. Magic are also a sizzling 9-2 ATS on the road this season, where they are actually outscoring opponents on the season. Bet the Magic +5.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Morehead State +13½ -110

My money is on the Eagles to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog against the Thundering Herd. Morehead State just played 3 straight at home and are a sizzling 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games after playing 3 or more straight games at home. Eagles are also 5-1 ATS in their last 6 off a win and 9-2-1 ATS last 12 on the road. Marshall has dropped 4 of their last 5 in non-conference and come in having failed to cover in 3 straight. Bet Morehead State +13.5! 

15* BUCKS/RAPTORS NBA SHARP PLAY on Raptors -5 -110

My money is on the Raptors to cash in an easy win and cover here at home against the Bucks. Milwaukee is in a bit of a funk right now. The Bucks are just 3-4 SU and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games. They just lost at home by double-digits to Golden State as a 2-point favorite and I just have a hard time seeing them snap out of their funk against Toronto, who is 11-3 at home and out for revenge from a ugly 124-109 loss at Milwaukee earlier this season. Bet the Raptors -5! 

15* OREGON ST/ST LOUIS CBB SHARP PLAY on St. Louis -2½ -110

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

15* E ILLINOIS/W ILLINOIS CBB SHARP PLAY on Eastern Illinois +10 -110

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

20* NUGGETS/HAWKS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Hawks +7½ -110

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

20* S ILLINOIS/SE MISSOURI ST CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Southern Illinois -9½ -104

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

15* LOUISVILLE/INDIANA CBB SHARP PLAY on Indiana -6½ -108

My money is on Indiana to cash in a win and cover at home against the Cardinals. Indiana is 7-2 with their only two losses coming in true road games against Arkansas and Duke. They won both their early Big Ten games, including an upset victory at Penn State last time bout. This is just one of those teams that is a whole different beast on their home floor. Indiana is 12-3 ATS last 15 off a road win by 3-points or less, 11-1 ATS last 12 home games after 3 straight games forcing 14 or fewer turnovers and 8-0 ATS last 8 at home after 2 straight games against conference opponents. Bet the Hoosiers -6.5! 

20* THUNDER/BULLS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Thunder -8½ -110

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

20* UMASS/PROVIDENCE CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Massachusetts +9½ -110

My money is on the Minutemen to cash in a cover here as a near double-digit dog at Providence Friday. I'm just not huge on the Friars this year and think they are way over-priced coming in on a 4-game winning streak and off an upset win at Boston College. UMass can light it up offensively. The Minutemen are averaging 81.2 ppg and shooting 47% from the field and 38% from long distance. That fire-power on offense should keep them in and gives them an outside shot of winning this thing. Bet UMass +9.5! 

20* ROCKETS/JAZZ NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Rockets +2 -105

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

20* IOWA STATE/IOWA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iowa +1½ -105

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

20* OKLAHOMA ST/TULSA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Tulsa +1 -110

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

20* HAWKS/WIZARDS SOUTHEAST GAME OF THE MONTH on Hawks +5 -110

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

15* MONMOUTH/HOFSTRA CBB SHARP PLAY on Monmouth +14½ -110

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

20* KINGS/SUNS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Kings -6 -110

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

20* MICHIGAN/NORTHWESTERN CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northwestern +7 -105

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

15* RUTGERS/WISCONSIN CBB SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin -13 -110

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

20* CAVS/NETS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Cavs +6 -110

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

15* LOYOLA MARYMOUNT/UCLA CBB SHARP PLAY on UCLA -9½ -105

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

15* JAZZ/HEAT NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz -3½ -110

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

15* WARRIORS/PISTONS NBA SHARP PLAY on Warriors -4½ -110

15* MARSHALL/OHIO CBB SHARP PLAY on Ohio +4 -110

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

15* SETON HAL/LOUISVILLE CBB SHARP PLAY on Seton Hall -3 -105

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

15* SAN FRANCISCO/BUFFALO CBB SHARP PLAY on San Francisco +5½ -110

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

20* CAVS/CELTICS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Cavs +12½ -110

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

20* C CAROLINA/S CAROLINA CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on South Carolina -12½ -110

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

15* VALPARAISO/UNLV CBB SHARP PLAY on UNLV -5½ -110

My money is on the Rebels to cash in a win and cover as a 5.5-point home favorite against the Crusaders. Valparaiso is a mere 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 road games against a team with a winning home record. Rebels have been a great team to back at home early on, as they are 17-7 ATS last 3 seasons in home non-conference games. Bet UNLV -5.5! 

20* N IOWA/UTAH ST CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Iowa vs Utah State over 145½ -110

My money is on the OVER 145.5 in Wednesday's college basketball action that has Utah State hosting Northern Iowa. Utah State comes into this game averaging 87 ppg and have scored at least 80 in 5 of their 6 games this season. UNI has hit 90 points twice this year. They are coming off a couple of lower scoring games against ODU, but the Monarchs are a team that hangs their hat on the defensive side of the ball. I think both teams easily hit 70 points and this one finishes closer to 160. Bet the OVER 145.5! 

20* IONA/OHIO CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iona +1 -115

My money is on the Gaels to secure a win on the road against Ohio tonight. Iona came into the season way overvalued and have paid the price with a 0-5 ATS mark in their first 5 games. However, the books have over-adjusted and it's time to jump on the Gaels. Ohio is not a good team and while they come in averaging 73 ppg, we saw them score a mere 46 against USF and 56 vs Loyola-Marymount. Iona has beat Ohio each of the last two years and will make it 3 in a row with an easy win. Bet the Gaels +1! 

20* NEBRASKA/CLEMSON CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Clemson -3½ -110

My money is on the Tigers to cash in a win at home against the Cornhuskers. Both these teams come in at 5-1, but Clemson is the one fresh off a loss to Creighton as a 5-point favorite. That was on a neutral site and just a few days ago Nebraska got steam-rolled by Texas Tech 70-52 as a 3-point favorite on a neutral site. I just think home-court is everything in this matchup. Just too good a price to pass up on the Tigers. Bet Clemson -3.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Long Beach State +8½ -110

My money is on the 49ers to at worst keep this within the big spread for the cover, though I think Long Beach is more than capable of winning this game outright against the Beavers. Oregon State is 4-1 but a lot of that is their schedule and this 49ers squad is no pushover, as they only lost by 11 on the road to UCLA earlier this season, as they put up 80 on the Bruins. Long Beach State's ability to score will allow them to hang around and keep this much closer than expected. Bet the 49ers +8.5! 

15* FULLERTON/SACRAMENTO CBB SHARP PLAY on CS-Fullerton -4 +100

My money is on CS-Fullerton to cash in a win and cover here as a short road favorite against Sacramento State. While Fullerton is just 2-4 and Sacramento is 2-0, the Titans have played the much tougher schedule with 3 games against the likes of Arizona State, UCF and Wake Forest. They played all 3 of those teams close, losing by just 8 at Arizona State and by 7 on a neutral site to the Demon Deacons. Look for them to have no problem here winning by at least 5 points. Bet CS-Fullerton -4! 

15* CELTICS/MAVS NBA SHARP PLAY on Celtics vs Mavs over 211½ +100

My money is on the OVER 211.5 in Saturday's NBA action that has the Mavericks hosting the Celtics. Boston has got the offense rolling of late and should have no problem staying hot against the Mavericks. Dallas should be able to push the tempo here playing on 2 days of rest, while Celtics are in the second game of a back-to-back set on the road. OVER is 6-2 in Mavs' last 8 when playing on 2 days of rest. Bet the OVER 211.5! 

15* G MASON/CINCINNATI CBB SHARP PLAY on George Mason +10 +102

My money is on the Patriots to cash in a cover here as a double-digit neutral site dog against the Bearcats. While Cincinnati comes in off a cover against Western Michigan, they are just 1-3 ATS on the season. I think the books have been a little high on them out of the gate and certainly feel like this is a few too many points for them to be laying against an experienced George Mason squad that brought back everyone from last year's team. Bet the Patriots +10! 

15* LOUISVILLE/MARQUETTE CBB SHARP PLAY on Marquette -3½ -109

My money is on the Golden Eagles to cash in an easy cover here as a short 3.5-point favorite against the Cardinals in Friday's final round action of the early season NIT Tournament. This is simply a rebuilding year for Louisville, but because they are such a brand name and have been so good for so long, the books will be slow to adjust on them, which means there will be value fading them early. They are just 1-2-1 ATS out of the gate and I think they are getting too much love against a good Marquette team. Bet the Golden Eagles -3.5! 

15* MARSHALL/MARYLAND CBB SHARP PLAY on Marshall vs Maryland under 162½ +100

My money is on the UNDER 162.5 in Friday's college basketball action that has Maryland hosting Marshall. Terps have been a really strong UNDER play this season, as it's cashed in 4 of their 5 games. A big reason for that is their defense, which comes in holding opponents to just 39.5% shooting from the field. Marshall is team that likes to push the tempo, but this is a step up in competition. UNDER is 14-5 in Maryland's last 19 as a favorite and 13-4 in their last 17 home games when playing only their second game in a week. Bet the UNDER 162.5! 

15* WOLVES/NETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Wolves vs Nets under 220½ +100

My money is on the UNDER in Friday's early NBA action that has the Nets and Timberwolves tipping off at 12:00 EST. Not only are players likely not 100% invested in playing the day after Thanksgiving, but I can't see them wanting anything to do with this early start time. Minnesota will be on a plane back home as soon as this is over, as they got to host the Bulls tomorrow night and Brooklyn's not exactly a team to get up for. Defense has been a lot better for Minnesota since they traded Butler and the Nets offense struggled from the floor since losing LeVert. I think this one finishes close to 210. Bet the UNDER 220.5! 

15* VIRGINIA/MIDDLE TENN CBB SHARP PLAY on Virginia vs Middle Tennessee over 131½ +102

My money is on the OVER 131.5 in Wednesday's CBB action the that has Middle Tennessee facing off against Virginia. No surprise to see a low number on the total with Virginia involved, but this is too low. Middle Tennessee has some legit offensive fire-power. The Blue Raiders are averaging 85.5 ppg. They are also not good defensively, giving up 76 ppg and recently allowed 92 on the road to Belmont. OVER is 34-18 in Virginia's last 52 as a neutral court favorite. Bet the OVER 131.5

15* SUNS/BULLS NBA SHARP PLAY on Suns +2 -110

My money is on the Suns to go into Chicago and get a win against the slumping Bulls. All of the injuries Chicago has had to deal with early on this season are really starting to take their toll. They come in having lost 4 straight and have been absolutely atrocious on the offensive side of the ball. Only once in their last 5 games have they shot better than 44%. Suns come in shooting 48.1% over their last 5 and I'll the hot team offensively in a matchup of bad teams. Bet Phoenix +2! 

20* DARTMOUTH/BUFFALO CBB SHARP TOP PLAY on Dartmouth +18½ +100

My money is on the Big Green to cash in an easy cover here on the road against the Bulls. Buffalo is just way overvalued after going on the road and beating West Virginia 99-94 as a 10.5-point dog and Southern Illinois 62-53 as a 4-point favorite. Dartmouth's only loss is at Davidson and they lost that by just 3-points as a 18.5-point dog. Big Green are 9-0 ATS last 9 road games after scoring 85 or more and Buffalo is 1-12 ATS last 13 at home with a total of 150-154.5! Bet Dartmouth +18.5! 

15* WISCONSIN/STANFORD CBB SHARP PLAY on Wisconsin vs Stanford over 141 -105

My money is on the OVER 141 in today's college basketball clash between Stanford and Wisconsin. I just think the number here is a bit low. We just saw Stanford go on the road and give up 90 to UNC. Cardinal have scored 70+ in each of their 3 games and put up 72 on UNC, despite only 40% shooting. Wisconsin is known as a defensive program, but have scored 85 and 96 in two of their 3 games and had 77 on the road against Xavier. I see this a lot closer to 155 than 140. Bet the OVER 141! 

15* UTAH ST/ARIZONA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Utah State +5 -110

My money is on the Aggies to cash in a winning ticket against the Sun Devils on Wednesday. Utah State has been an absolute covering machine to start out the 2018 season. The Aggies are 5-0 SU and 5-0 ATS. Last time out they rolled St Mary's by 17 as a 4-point dog. ASU is also off an upset win over Miss St, but the Sun Devils are just 9-24 ATS last 33 road games off an upset win, while Aggies are 9-2 ATS last 11 off a win by 10 or more points. Bet Utah State +5! 

15* NUGGETS/BUCKS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bucks -5 -110

My money is on the Bucks to cash in a win and cover here at home against the Nuggets. Denver has been on a complete free-fall since they started out 9-1. The Nuggets have lost 5 of their last 6 to fall to 10-6 and I just don't see them putting up much of a fight here against a really good Milwaukee team that has gone 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS on their home floor this season. Nuggets just 1-4 ATS last 5 on the road. Bet the Bucks -5! 

15* AUBURN/XAVIER CBB SHARP PLAY on Auburn vs Xavier under 157½ +100

My money is on the UNDER 157.5 in Monday's big non-conference clash between Auburn and Xavier. The game is being played in Hawaii as part of the Maui Invitational. I just think it's hard for teams to shoot well in these neutral site games that are a long way from home. The game is being played at 10:30 AM in Hawaii and when the body clocks are off you don't perform up to your potential. Look for the defenses to shine here and for this one to stay well below the mark. Bet the UNDER 157.5! 

15* UC-IRVINE/UTSA CBB SHARP PLAY on Cal-Irvine -9½ -110

My money is on the Anteaters to cash in an easy win and cover against the Roadrunners. UTSA hasn't won a game this season and while two of those were against Big 12 foes in Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, they failed to cover both, losing by 20 as a 9.5-point dog to OU and by 22 as a 12.5-point dog to the Cowboys. UC-Irvine is 4-0 SU and a perfect 3-0 ATS. They won their last game by double-digits, despite shooting just 38% from the field. They had shot 50% or better in each of their first 3, so look for them to get back on track here and cruise to an easy win. Bet UC-Irvine -9.5!

15* WASHINGTON/SANTA CLARA CBB SHARP PLAY on Santa Clara +15½ -105

My money is on the Broncos to cash in a cover here against Washington as a 15.5-point dog. San Clara couldn't have looked much worse in their first two games, losing by double-digits to both Prairie View A&M and UC-Irvin. Broncos shot horrible in both of those games and simply can't continue to be that bad from the field. Huskies got annihilated in their big test at Auburn and then barely held on to be San Diego by 3 as a 9.5-point home favorite. Look for Washington to struggle to pull away in this one. Bet Santa Clara +15.5! 

15* BLAZERS/WIZARDS NBA SHARP PLAY on Blazers vs Wizards under 224 -110

My money is on the UNDER 224 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Blazers visiting the Wizards. UNDER has been a very profitable bet in Portland games, as it's cashed in 6 of the last 7. UNDER is also a perfect 2-0 in Washington's last 2 games, as the books have really inflated their totals with how poor they were playing defensively early in the year. The fact that the total is 224 and these two combined for 249 with a total of 228 back on Oct. 22nd, tells you all you need to know about what the right side is. Bet the UNDER 224!

15* WAKE FOREST/VALPO CBB SHARP PLAY on Valparaiso +1 -110

My money is on the Crusaders to cash in a winning ticket at basically a pick'em against the Demon Deacons in the final round of the Myrtle Beach Invitational. I just haven't been impressed with Wake Forest, who barely scraped by CS-Fullerton 66-59, as they shot a mere 33.9% from the field. Valpo on the other hand shout 50% in a win and cover against Monmouth. Deacons are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 vs a team that's won 60%-8% of their games and 5-14 ATS in their last 19 road games against strong defenses teams that are holding opponents to 42% or worse from the field. Bet Valparaiso +1! 

15* HAWKS/PACERS NBA SHARP PLAY on Pacers -11 -111

15* NIAGARA/WYOMING CBB SHARP PLAY on Wyoming -5½ -105

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

15* JAZZ/76ERS NBA SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs 76ers under 216½ -110

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

15* UNI/PENNSYLVANIA CBB SHARP PLAY on Pennsylvania -2½ -110

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

15* MIAMI (OH)/N DAKOTA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on North Dakota State +3 -115

15* WARRIORS/ROCKETS NBA SHARP PLAY on Rockets -1½ -110

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

15* ALABAMA/NORTHEASTERN CBB SHARP PLAY on Alabama vs Northeastern under 144 -110

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

15* COLORADO ST/MONTANA ST CBB SHARP PLAY on Colorado State -11 -105

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

15* NIAGARA/LOYOLA-CHICAGO CBB SHARP PLAY on Niagara +14 -104

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

15* BULLS/CELTICS NBA SHARP PLAY on Bulls vs Celtics under 210½ -102

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

20* CBB SMALL CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE MONTH over 153½ -110

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

20* HORNETS/CAVS NBA SHARP TOP PLAY on Hornets -6½ -109

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