The Terrapins avoided looking ahead by taking care of Wake Forest, getting a career-high 20 points from Nick Faust. However, that win does little to amplify the team's meager NCAA Tournament hopes, as it is 0-8 against teams ranked in the top 50 of the RPI, with perhaps its best win coming Nov. 25 against Providence. A matchup with Syracuse, fellow tournament hopeful Clemson and first-place Virginia in the final four games. Maryland has lost the last two meetings, in the 2004 NCAA Tournament and the 2008 NIT.

The sky isn't falling in Indiana, as the loss to Orlando snapped a four-game winning streak and the Pacers still own the best record in the NBA. A silver lining from Sunday's loss was Paul George breaking out of a mini slump with 27 points, just the second time in the last eight games he has topped 20. Guard Lance Stephenson has been nursing a sore back but played 40 minutes against the Magic, so his status could be in question in the second game of a back-to-back.
Denver is likely to be without point guard Ty Lawson (broken rib), which hurts at the offensive end, but the Nuggets' bigger problems are on defense. They just gave up 126 points in a loss to a Detroit team that fired its coach a day later and have allowed 100 or more points in seven straight games and 12 of the last 13

This year's rendition of College Football's top game features two undefeated teams from BCS conferences.
Auburn comes into this one sporting an impressive offensive attack led by Heisman quarterback Cam Newton. The Tigers averaged an unbelievable 10.5 yards per pass attempt and 7.5 yards per play while racking up 42.7 points per game raking sixth in the nation. Auburn won some close games this season as six of their 13 wins were decided by a score or less.
Oregon comes into this contest with an even more impressive offense as they lead the nation with 49.3 points per game and 539 yards per game. They are led by RB LaMichael James and QB Darron Thomas.
With both offenses able to move the ball at will this game will come down to defense. The Ducks allow six fewer points per game, 30 fewer yards per game and have a yards per play edge of almost a full yard.
Supporting Angles: AUBURN is 6-17 ATS (-12.7 Units) vs. poor ball control teams, 28 or less possession minutes/game since 1992. OREGON is 37-16 ATS (+19.4 Units) when the line is +3 to -3 since 1992.

Rating: 3 Unit Big-10 Game of the Week
In a Big-10 contest that Michigan Wolverines travel to the "horseshoe" to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes. Unfortunately for the Wolves they will be facing QB Pryor knowing that their defense ranks 92nd versus the rush, 111th versus the pass, 112th in total Defense, and 99th in scoring defense.
Michigan has a star themselves in Robinson but he'll be facing a much better Buckeyes defense that ranks 3rd, 5th, 3rd, and 5th in those same categories.
Supporting Angles: MICHIGAN is 0-8 ATS (-8.8 Units) versus good rushing defenses - allowing <=120 rushing yards/game over the last 2 seasons. OHIO ST is 10-2 ATS (+7.8 Units) in home games vs. poor passing defenses - allowing 8 or more passing yards/att. since 1992. MICHIGAN is 0-9 ATS (-9.9 Units) in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons.
Sure it's a lot of points to give but this one is a total mismath as the Buckeyes roll in this one.

The surprising Kansas City Chiefs rolls into Denver after they crushed them in this same stadium last year 44-24. This season, the Chiefs are moving the ball even better and will be going against a Denver defense that has been injury-plagued. They have been horrible lately as they have been run over by the Raiders and 49ers in their past two games.
The Broncos come into this one off a bye week but that is mitigated by the fact that they are a horrible 2-13 at home versus AFC West opponents over the past three seasons.
Supporting Angle: Road teams (KANSAS CITY) coming off a road loss are 40-11 ATS in November road games over the past five seasons.

The Lakers continue thier homestand tonight and look to remain perfect early on the season. The Lakers could come into this one not giving maximum effort as they have been on cruise control thus far in the season. That won't be surprising for a defending champion playing in a meaningless November game.
Portland was one of the best road teams in the league last year going 25-19 (57%) SU and 26-16-2 (62%) ATS on the road. The Lakers have had success versus just about everyone but haven't had that same success versus Portland as Portland is 8-6 against L.A. over the past four seasons.
Supporting Angles: LA LAKERS are 3-13 ATS (-11.3 Units) in home games after scoring 105 points or more 5 straight games since 1996. PORTLAND is 59-41 ATS (+13.9 Units) versus teams who make 6 or more 3 point shots/game on the season over the last 3 seasons.
