At 1 pm, our selection is on the Chicago Bears + the points over the Detroit Lions.  The Bears have been installed as a home dog vs. Detroit, which defeated the Bears on Thanksgiving Day by 3 points.  We'll grab the points, as Chicago is a super 12-3 ATS as a home dog of +6 (or more) points, if it didn't cover the spread in either of its two previous games.  Additionally, in the season's final 3 games, NFL road teams with a win percentage > .800, have covered just 1 of 13 since 1986 vs. foes off a SU/ATS loss, if our home team was playing with revenge from a loss suffered earlier in the season.  Take Chicago.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Jets/Rams to go UNDER the total.  The line in this game has ticked up to 47, and that's all I need to pull the trigger on the Under, since it now falls into a super 334-238-12 Totals system of mine.  Additionally, the Rams are 42-22-4 Under vs. foes off 3+ Overs, including 11-0 Under their last 11 (and 20-3-3 Under their last 26) if the O/U line was greater than 46 points.  Take the Under. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Michigan Wolverines minus the points over Fort Wayne.  The Wolves enter this game off back losses to Arkansas and Oklahoma.  The good news for the Maize and Blue is that they're 107-79 ATS off a loss, including 11-3 ATS if they were playing back to back non-conference games.  Take Michigan to bounce back at home this afternoon.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Towson Tigers minus the points over Bryant.  The Tigers were upset by Robert Morris in Coraopolis, 68-67, on Tuesday.  Towson is back home this afternoon, and it has cashed 64.2% since 1990 at home following an upset loss, when installed as a favorite (or PK).  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Alabama Crimson Tide minus the points over Kent St.  Nate Oats men failed to cover the spread in their previous game vs. North Dakota, while Kent St. is on a 3-game SU/ATS win streak.  We'll lay the points with Alabama, as it is 16-7-1 ATS off a point spread loss if playing an opponent off 3+ ATS wins.  Take the Crimson Tide minus the points.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Central Arkansas Bears + the points over Oklahoma.  The Sooners are a perfect 11-0 on the season after downing Michigan, 87-86.  But Oklahoma is an ugly 16-38 ATS vs. non-conference foes, if the Sooners were off back-to-back wins, and favored by double-digits.  Take the Bears + the points.

At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Mavericks minus the points over the Los Angeles Clippers.  This is the second of back-to-back meetings between these teams here, in Dallas.  Los Angeles won Round 1 on Thursday with a 23-point win, 118-95.  We'll lay the points with the Mavs in this rematch, as they're 166-107-8 ATS off a SU loss, when playing an opponent off a SU win.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics minus the points over the Chicago Bulls.  These two teams met in Boston on Thursday, and the Bulls came away with a 117-108 victory.  We'll take Boston tonight, as it's 94-54-1 ATS on the road off a home loss by more than 7 points.  Take the Celtics.

At 8 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on the Ohio State Buckeyes minus the points over Tennessee.  The Buckeyes lost yet again to rival Michigan, as the Wolverines stunned Ohio State, 13-10, in Columbus, to end the season.  The good news for the Buckeyes is that its season didn't end with that loss, and it has a great opportunity ahead of it to still win the NCAA Championship.  I look for Ohio State to get off on the right foot in this opening round game, as it has gone 59-28-3 ATS when scoring less than 25 points in its previous game.  Take Ohio St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Sacramento Kings minus the points over the Los Angeles Lakers.  The Lakers come into this evening's game off back-to-back SU/ATS wins, while the Kings are off back-to-back SU/ATS losses.  We'll lay the points with Sacramento, as it is 31-12 ATS off back-to-back losses, while the Lakers are 105-143-7 ATS in the regular season off back-to-back SU/ATS wins.  Take the Kings.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Richmond Spiders minus the points over VMI.  The Spiders come into this game off a 93-87 loss at William & Mary.  The good news is that they're back home today, where they've gone 17-3 SU and 12-7 ATS the past 2 seasons.  More good news: the Keydets are a soft 16-30 ATS on the road vs. a foe off a SU/ATS loss.  Take Richmond minus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Wisconsin-Green Bay Phoenix + the points over Drake.  The Bulldogs moved to 10-0 on the season with a win in Kansas City vs. the Kansas St. Wildcats, 73-70, in overtime.  We'll fade Drake this evening, as undefeated teams, with a 10-0 (or better) record, have cashed just 36.9% since 1990 off a home/neutral court win, if they were matched-up against a foe off back-to-back losses in their current game.  Take Green Bay.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on the Texas Longhorns minus the points over Clemson.  The Longhorns lost the SEC Conference championship game, in overtime, to the Georgia Bulldogs, while Clemson upset SMU to win the ACC Conference title.  We'll lay the points with Texas, as SEC Conference teams have gone 80-54 ATS in the Bowls off a SU loss, including 19-13 ATS if they lost the SEC Conference title game.  Meanwhile, teams off wins in the ACC Conference title game have been poor in the Bowls, going 7-12 ATS, including 0-3 ATS vs. foes off a loss.  And ACC teams are 0-7 ATS vs. the SEC in the Bowls, if our ACC team was getting 7+ points and off a SU win.  Take Texas to blow out Clemson.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Texas Southern Tigers + the points over Abilene Christian.  The Tigers were trounced in their last two games by Nevada (105-73) and Boise St. (82-51).  Off those two losses, we'll play on Texas Southern this afternoon, as NCAA teams have cashed 60% since 1990 off back-to-back SU/ATS losses, if they fell by more than 30 points in each of their two previous games.  Take the Tigers.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Bellarmine Knights + the points over Colorado.  The Buffaloes come into this game off back to back double-digit wins over Colorado St (72-55) and S. Dakota St. (81-70).  We'll fade the Buffaloes tonight, as they're a brutal 17-40 ATS off back-to-back wins by more than 7 points.  Grab the points with Bellarmine.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Austin Peay Governors + the points over Vanderbilt.  Austin Peay will make the short drive down I-24 today to face off against its cross-state rival.  We'll grab the points with Austin Peay, and fade a Commodores squad which has covered just 16 of 39 vs. non-conference foes off back-to-back SU/ATS losses.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Golden Gophers minus the points over Fairleigh Dickinson.  The Knights come into this road game off an ATS win at La Salle, on Wednesday.  We'll fade Fairleigh Dickinson this afternoon, as Minnesota is a solid 26-14 ATS when favored (or PK) vs. foes off an ATS win, while FDU is a dismal 25-32 ATS off an ATS win, including 8-18 ATS vs. foes off a SU loss.  Lay the points with Minnesota.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Georgia St. Panthers + the points over Troy.  The Trojans went into Atlanta last season, and defeated the Panthers by 4 points, 78-74.  We'll take Georgia St. + the points, as it is 51-33-2 ATS when playing with revenge away from home.  Take the Panthers.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Houston Texans + the points over Kansas City.  The Chiefs covered last week vs. Cleveland, but that was their first point spread win in eight games.  We'll fade Kansas City on Saturday, as defending Super Bowl champs have gone 3-13 ATS when they were off 4+ wins, and favored by 3+ points (including 0-6 ATS vs. a foe off a SU win).  Additionally, the road team has gone 9-2 ATS in this series when the line was less than 8 points.  And, finally, the underdog has gone 24-13-1 ATS in Houston's last 38 games, and 18-9 ATS in KC's last 27 games.  Take the Texans + the points.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on the Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans to go OVER the total.  The Chiefs have played their last 3 games under the total, but they are 29-18-1 OVER off 3+ unders.  Likewise, the Texans have gone under in their last two games.  But Houston is 40-24 OVER following back-to-back unders.  The last 5 meetings between these clubs have sailed OVER the total, and I look for a relatively high-scoring game on Saturday.  Take the OVER.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Monmouth Hawks minus the points over Fairfield.  This is Monmouth's home opener after kicking off the season with eight road games, and three neutral court games.  We'll take the Hawks to blow out Fairfield, as Monmouth has won its last 13 home games in a row, going 9-4 ATS, including a perfect 8-0 ATS when not favored by 6+ points.  Take the Hawks.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Indiana Hoosiers minus the points over Chattanooga.  The Hoosiers have been an ATM machine here, at Assembly Hall, vs. non-conference foes over the years.  And especially when laying double-digits, as they've gone 90-54-1 ATS.  Meanwhile, Chattanooga is an ugly 0-5-1 ATS vs. Big 10 foes when getting double-digits.  Lay the points with Indiana.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights minus the points over Princeton.  The Tigers upset the Scarlet Knights last season, 68-61.  We'll take the Scarlet Knights to avenge that defeat, as they're 38-23-1 ATS when favored by 3+ points and playing with revenge.  Take Rutgers.

At 3:30 pm, on Friday, our selection is on the Tulane Green Wave + the points over Florida.  The Gators have been installed as a big favorite in this Gasparilla Bowl vs. Tulane.  Generally speaking, big favorites have NOT done well in Bowl games, as they've gone 71-90-3 ATS when laying double-digits.  And I can't lay ANY number with Florida -- much less, double-digits -- given how bad the Gators have been as a favorite.  Indeed, Florida is 6-18-1 ATS its last 25 games when installed as a favorite, including 2-13 ATS off a win, and 1-6 ATS in non-conference games.  Meanwhile, the Green Wave are 7-4 ATS their last 11 as an underdog.  Finally, sub-.800 SEC Conference teams have burned money in Bowl games when laying 8+ points, as they've gone 6-17 ATS.  Take Tulane + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Jacksonville St. Gamecocks + the points over Ohio U.  Both teams come into this Cure Bowl game off blowout wins.  The Gamecocks routed Western Kentucky, 52-12, while the Bobcats blew out Miami-Ohio, 38-3.  The underdogs have dominated the Cure Bowl games, going 7-1 ATS since 2016, including 5-0 ATS their last five.  And, speaking of domination, Conference USA teams have largely controlled games vs. Mid-American Conference foes of late, as they've gone 16-7 SU and 15-7-1 ATS in the last 23 meetings.  This season, only Boise State, Notre Dame and New Mexico gained more yards per rush than the Gamecocks, who averaged 5.7 ypr.  And underdogs of less than 8 points have gone 22-8 ATS in the Bowls if they averaged 5.7 (or more) yards per rush.  Take the Gamecocks + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, in the New Orleans Bowl, our selection is on the Sam Houston St. Bearkats + the points over Georgia Southern.  Both of these teams enter this game off wins to end their regular season.  The Bearkats upset Liberty to finish 9-3 on the year, while the Eagles defeated Appalachian St. to finish 8-4.  The Bearkats have been installed as an underdog in this evening's game, and they're a super 10-4 ATS when getting points.  The Eagles, on the other hand, are a money-burning 2-6-1 ATS when laying points.  That doesn't bode well for Georgia Southern tonight.  Nor does the fact that Sun Belt Conference teams, with a .666 (or better) win percentage, have gone 26-45 ATS when favored vs. non-conference foes, including 0-10 ATS if their foe was off a SU/ATS win.  We'll take Sam Houston St. + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the USC Trojans minus the points over Cal State Northridge.  USC comes into this game off back to back blowout wins over Washington (85-61) and Montana St (89-63).  We'll take USC as a big favorite, as Northridge is 7-17 ATS as an underdog vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Also, USC has dominated their SoCal rival, with 4 straight wins and 3 straight covers.  Take USC.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Gonzaga Bulldogs minus the points over Nicholls St.  The Colonels come into this game on a 5-game win streak, including a 44-point win over Southern-New Orleans last week.  But Nicholls is stepping up in class tonight, and will have the misfortune of facing an ornery Bulldogs squad that is coming off back to back losses to Kentucky and UConn.  We'll lay the points with Gonzaga, as it is 27-8-1 ATS at home vs. opponents off a win by more than 8 points.  Take the Bulldogs.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Michigan Wolverines minus the points over Oklahoma.  The Wolverines had their 7-game win streak snapped last week, when they were upset by Arkansas, 89-87, as a 4-point favorite.  Tonight, the Wolves will face another SEC Conference foe in Oklahoma.  And the Sooners are off to a 10-0 start.  I like Michigan to hand Oklahoma its first defeat, as U-M is 21-9 ATS as a favorite (or PK) off an upset loss.  Meanwhile, the Sooners are 1-6 ATS vs. foes off an upset loss.  And they're a dismal 28-42-1 ATS away from home vs. non-conference foes off a point spread defeat.  Lay the points with Michigan.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Arizona Wildcats minus the points over Samford.  The Wildcats are just 4-5 this season, but all five losses were to schools from Power conferences.  In games against lesser competition, the Wildcats have gone 4-0 SU and 3-1 ATS.  The Wildcats are 9-1 ATS their last 10 when they owned a losing record.  And they're 70-48-1 ATS when matched-up against an opponent off a SU/ATS win, if that opponent also owned a better W/L record.  Take Arizona.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Alabama A&M Bulldogs + the points over UAB.  The Bulldogs will take the short drive down I-65 for this game at Bartow Arena.  It's true that the Bulldogs are on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak.  But UAB has burned money since 1990 as a home favorite vs. foes on 3-game (or worse) SU/ATS losing streaks, as it's covered just 41%.  Meanwhile, the Bulldogs have cashed 64% following a 3-game (or worse) SU/ATS losing streak.  These two teams met last season in Huntsville, and the Bulldogs got the $$$ as a 13.5-point home dog.  They're getting more points this evening in Birmingham, and we'll take the Bulldogs + the points.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Massachusetts Minutemen minus the points over Northeastern.  UMass has dominated its cross-state rival, with a 6-2 SU/ATS mark, including a perfect 4-0 ATS at home, in Amherst.  The Huskies have won 3 straight games entering tonight's fray.  Unfortunately, the Huskies are a horrid 1-10-1 ATS off back to back wins.  Lay the points with UMass.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the East Tennessee Buccaneers minus the points over Elon.  The Bucs return home after 3 straight road losses at James Madison, Wichita St. and Jacksonville.  And their loss to the Dolphins was as a 2.5-point road favorite.  The good news for ETSU is that it's 5-1 at home this season.  And it's also cashed 58% off 3+ losses.  Meanwhile, Elon is a poor 28-40-1 ATS when playing an opponent off an upset loss.  Take East Tennessee St.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the La Salle Explorers minus the points over Fairleigh Dickinson.  The Explorers were blown out by North Carolina, 93-67, in their last game.  And that was La Salle's 3rd straight loss (both SU and ATS).  We'll take the Explorers tonight as a double-digit favorite, as they're 22-7-3 ATS when riding a 3-game ATS losing streak, and installed as a favorite (including 6-1 ATS vs. non-conference foes).  Take La Salle.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Sacramento St. Hornets + the points over Oregon St.  The Hornets lost to cross-town rival, Cal Davis, 69-62, on Saturday.  And that was the Hornets 4th straight defeat (both SU and ATS).  We'll take Sacramento St. to bounce back tonight, as it is 6-0 ATS its last six (and 14-2 ATS its last 16) when getting more than 9 points off back to back SU/ATS losses.  Take Sacramento St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Texas Southern Tigers + the points over Boise St.  The 7-3 Broncos are hefty favorites tonight vs. the 2-8 Tigers.  We'll fade the Broncos, as they're 5-12 ATS when laying more than 20, while Texas Southern is 27-9 ATS when priced from +7.5 to +26 points vs. an opponent not off a point spread loss.  Take the Tigers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Colorado St. Rams minus the points over Radford.  The Rams return home following back to back SU/ATS losses to Colorado and VCU.  We'll lay the points, as Colorado St. has cashed 71% of its home games vs. non-conference foes since 1990 off back to back SU/ATS losses.  Meanwhile, Radford is a soft 14-22 ATS when getting more than 8 points.  Take the Rams.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 9 pm, our selection is on the Utah St. Aggies minus the points over UC San Diego.  This is a great match-up tonight between the 10-0 Aggies and the 9-2 Tritons.  Utah St. enters off back to back SU/ATS wins over Utah Tech and South Florida, while the Tritons have covered six straight.  We'll fade UC San Diego as a road dog, as it's an ugly 0-7 SU/ATS when getting 3 (or more) points off back to back wins.  Meanwhile, the Aggies are an awesome 30-13 ATS as a home favorite vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles + the points over Lamar.  The Golden Eagles have been installed as a home underdog tonight.  Southern Miss is 7-1 ATS its last eight as a home dog, including 5-0 ATS its last five.  That bodes well for it tonight.  As does the fact that it is 6-0 SU and 4-0-1 ATS its last six meetings with the Cardinals, including an 82-79 win at Lamar last season.  Take the Golden Eagles + the points.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Ohio St. Buckeyes minus the points over Valparaiso.  The Buckeyes were blasted, 91-53, by Auburn in their previous game, while Valpo blew out Central Michigan, 93-77.  We'll lay the points with the Buckeyes off their embarrassing loss, as they are a super 14-5-1 ATS in non-conference games off a SU/ATS loss, when favored by 12+ points.  Additionally, Valpo is a woeful 10-29-2 ATS on the non-conference road following a SU win.  Take Ohio St.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Missouri Tigers minus the points over Jacksonville St.  The Tigers won their 9th straight game on Saturday when they defeated Long Island, 88-61.  They're favored by double-digits tonight vs. the Gamecocks.  We'll lay the points, as Missouri is a solid 42-28-1 ATS off 3+ wins, when favored vs. non-conference foes.  Take Missouri.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Western Carolina Catamounts + the points over Tennessee.  The #1-ranked Vols are 10-0 after their huge win at Illinois on Saturday.  They're laying a large number tonight vs. Western Carolina, and we'll happily grab the points with the Catamounts.  Western Carolina is 17-11 ATS when catching more than 10 points.  And undefeated NCAA teams, with a 10-0 (or better) record, have cashed just 38.8% over the last 35 years when laying more than 29 points.  Take the Catamounts.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons minus the points over James Madison.  The Dukes hit the road tonight following back to back SU/ATS home wins over E. Tennessee St. and Utah Valley St.  Unfortunately, they've covered just 42% of their non-conference road games since 1990 off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Lay the points with Wake Forest.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the TCU Horned Frogs minus the points over South Alabama.  Jamie Dixon's men received bad news when leading scorer, Frankie Collins, was lost for the season after he sustained a broken foot in their previous game -- an 83-74 loss to Vanderbilt.  Collins was averaging 11.2 ppg, and 4.4 apg this year.  Without Collins, Vasean Allette will see additional minutes.  Allette was dismissed from Old Dominion on January 30, 2024 (for "conduct unbecoming") while leading the Monarchs in scoring (17.4), rebounds (5.7), assists (3.1) and steals (1.8) last season.  I like TCU to bounce back from its loss to Vandy.  Indeed, Big 12 Conference teams have dominated Sun Belt foes, with a 119-9 SU and 71-54 ATS record.  And if our Big 12 team was off a point spread loss, and favored by double-digits, then the record zooms to 28-9 ATS since December 2000.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Miami-Florida Hurricanes minus the points over Presbyterian.  Just two seasons removed from their Final Four appearance, the Hurricanes program has hit the skids.  They're currently riding a 7-game losing streak, and have lost 17 of 20 games (5-15 ATS), dating back to last season.  The good news for Jim Larranaga's men this afternoon is that the Blue Hose have gone 1-30 SU when getting 12+ points.  And Presbyterian is a poor 8-16-1 ATS on the road vs. a foe off a SU loss, including 0-4-1 ATS when getting 12+ points.  Finally, ACC Conference teams have gone 94-67-4 ATS at home off 5+ losses since 1990.  Lay the points with Miami-Fla.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the Cleveland Browns + the points over the Kansas City Chiefs.  The Chiefs have now failed to cover the spread in each of their last 7 games.  We'll fade Patrick Mahomes & Co. as road favorites on Sunday, as winning teams are a wallet-breaking 30% ATS since 1980 off 7+ ATS losses.  Moreover, defending Super Bowl champs are a poor 21-39 ATS away from home, when favored off a SU Win and ATS Loss in their previous game.  Take Cleveland + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Texas Southern Tigers + the points over Nevada.  We played on Nevada three days ago here, at home, vs. South Dakota St.  And we got the $$$ in a 14-point win.  The Wolf Pack, though, are laying significantly more points tonight, and we'll switch gears and fade the home team.  Since 1990, Nevada is a wallet-breaking 28-48-2 ATS when laying more than 13, including 8-20- ATS vs. foes off back-to-back losses.  The Tigers are a terrific 26-9 ATS away from home as an underdog vs. foes off a point spread win.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the NC A&T Aggies + the points over Liberty.  The Flames are 9-1 this season, and are on a 5-game ATS win streak.  The Aggies, on the other hand, are going in the opposite direction, with five straight losses (and four straight ATS losses).  The knee-jerk reaction might be to play on the red-hot Flames.  But we'll grab the points with NC A&T, as it is 7-0 ATS as an underdog off a loss, when playing an opponent off back to back SU/ATS wins.  Take the Aggies + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3:30 pm, in a game televised on the SEC Network, our selection is on the Arizona State Sun Devils + the points over Florida.  The Sun Devils blew out San Diego, 90-53, to win their 6th straight game, and cover their 3rd in a row.  They will match-up against an equally-hot Florida club seeking its 10th straight win.  We'll grab the points with Arizona State, as Florida is a terrible 2-8 ATS when laying more than 6 points vs. foes off 3 SU/ATS wins.  And the Sun Devils are 11-4-1 ATS as an underdog (or PK) off 3 SU/ATS wins.  Finally, underdogs off 6+ wins and 3+ covers have cashed 59% away from home when getting 6+ points in non-conference games.  Take Arizona State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3:15 pm, in a game televised on ESPN, our selection is on the Kansas Jayhawks minus the points over NC State.  The Jayhawks lost at Missouri, 76-67, as a 6.5-point road favorite, last Sunday.  We'll take Bill Self's men to rebound on Saturday, as Kansas is a solid 48-36-3 ATS as a home favorite off a SU/ATS loss.  And winning teams off an upset loss have gone 153-115 ATS, if they also lost two games back, and were favored at home vs. a non-conference foe.  Lay the points.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the California Golden Bears minus the points over Northwestern State.  The Golden Bears were upset at home by Cornell, 88-80, as a 9-point home favorite.  Off that debacle, I like the Bears to bounce back at home this afternoon.  Indeed, Cal has cashed 75% of its non-conference games over the last 35 seasons as a double-digit home favorite following an upset home loss.  That bodes well for the Bears today.  As does the fact that the Demons are a dreadful 2-9 ATS as an underdog vs. foes off upset losses.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks + the points over Texas Arlington.  We played on Monroe Wednesday, and got the $$$ in a 16-point win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff.  We'll come right back with the Warhawks this afternoon, as this is a revenge game for them.  Earlier this month, they hosted the Mavericks, and lost 84-70, as a 7-point home dog.  They're catching double-digits in Texas this afternoon, and the Warhawks have cashed 62.9% when playing with revenge on the road following a SU win.  Meanwhile, the Mavericks have cashed just 38 of 88 as a favorite vs. a revenge-minded for.  Take Louisiana-Monroe.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on the Navy Midshipmen + the points over Army.  The Black Knights won the AAC Championship last week with an upset win at home over Tulane.  And, in a strange scheduling quirk, the Black Knights will now play a regular season game against conference rival, Navy, which had last week off.  The Midshipmen lost the last two meetings with Army, and I like them to get revenge on Saturday.  For technical support, consider that rested, revenge-minded underdogs of +5 (or more) points, off a SU win, have gone 153-112-4 ATS since 1980 vs. unrested conference foes.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, in a game televised on ESPNU, our selection is on the Tulsa Golden Hurricane + the points over Central Florida.  The Golden Hurricane were upset by Southern U., 70-66, in their last game, as an 8-point home favorite.  We'll take Tulsa to bounce back, as it's cashed 67% since 1990 when getting 5+ points off an upset home loss.  And it's also cashed 58% since 1990 as a non-conference, double-digit dog.  Grab the points.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Grizzlies minus the points over Brooklyn.  The Grizzlies were upset not once, but twice by Brooklyn this season.  We'll lay the points with Memphis tonight, as it is 75-49 ATS in the regular season, when rested, if it owned a .600 (or better) win percentage, and was playing with revenge.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Indiana Pacers + the points over Philadelphia.  This is the first game for each of these teams since the In-season Tournament break.  When they last took the court, the Pacers were upset by Charlotte, 113-109, on Sunday, while Philly won at Chicago, 108-100.  These two teams met earlier this season, and the Sixers upset the Pacers, 118-114, as an 8.5-point underdog.  We'll take Indiana as a road dog tonight, as it is 165-97 ATS off a SU loss when rested, and playing with revenge against an opponent off a SU win.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:15 pm, on Thursday, our selection is on the San Francisco 49ers minus the points over Los Angeles.  These two division rivals met in L.A. earlier this season, and the Rams upset the Niners, as a 6-point home underdog, 27-24.  We'll take San Francisco on Thursday, as it's cashed 67% over the last 45 seasons when favored and playing with revenge from an upset loss earlier in the season.  Additionally, the Rams are a poor 16-30 ATS off back to back wins during coach Sean McVay's tenure.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the NC A&T Aggies + the points over Virginia Tech.  The Aggies will look to snap a 4-game losing streak (and 3-game ATS losing streak) tonight when they go into Blacksburg to take on the Virginia Tech Hokies, who have dropped their last six.  We'll grab the points, as Coastal Athletic Ass'n road dogs of +9 (or more) points have cashed 96 of 156 off back to back SU/ATS losses (including 22-12 ATS vs. non-conference foes).  Additionally, the Aggies are a solid 24-16 ATS as road dogs off a SU loss, while the Hokies are 4-16 ATS when favored by 7+ at home off a SU loss (and 1-12 ATS if favored by 12+).  Take NC A&T plus the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Nevada Wolf Pack minus the points over South Dakota State.  Nevada did something last week it does not do very often.  And that's lose back-to-back SU/ATS games.  Indeed, over the last 2 seasons, Nevada has been one of the top teams against the point spread, as it's gone 27-15 ATS.  We'll take Nevada to bounce back today, as it's cashed 71% of its home non-conference games following back-to-back losses.  And the Jackrabbits have covered just 22% as road underdogs vs. non-conference foes off back-to-back losses.  Take Nevada.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Utah Valley Wolverines minus the points over North Dakota.  Utah Valley was blown out, 78-61, by James Madison on Saturday, as a 6.5-point road underdog.  Off that poor performance, we'll take the Wolverines to bounce back tonight, as they've cashed 62.9% following a game where they failed to cover by 10+ points.  Take Utah Valley.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks minus the points over Arkansas-Pine Bluff.  The Golden Lions upset Central Arkansas, 84-78, on Saturday.  We'll fade them off that upset win, as they've cashed just 42% on the road off an upset win, while the Warhawks have covered 79% of the time as a favorite vs. foes off an upset win.  Lay the points with Louisiana-Monroe.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:00 pm, our selection is on the Louisville Cardinals minus the points over Texas-El Paso.  The Cardinals lost their ACC Conference opener over the weekend to Duke, 76-65, and will play out of conference this evening vs. UTEP.  Over the last 35 years, Louisville has been stellar as double-digit home favorites vs. non-conference foes off a SU/ATS win, as it has cashed 70%.  Lay the points.

At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Jets over the Boston Bruins.  First the bad news about the Jets heading into this match-up with the Bruins.  They've lost five of their last seven games overall and Boston has won seven of the last eight meetings going back to January of 2020.  Now the good news.  Despite their recent slump, the Jets are still 20-9 overall and 9-3 here at home.  And almost all of those losses against Boston were when the Bruins were a dominant team.  Those days appear to be over in Boston, if only temporarily.  A four-game win streak has finally pushed the Bruins over the .500 mark for basically the first time all season (15-11-3) but they appear to be a shell of the team that dominated the Eastern Conference for the better part of the last decade.  A recent coaching change seems to have helped, but Brad Marchand is about the only veteran left from those recent glory days.  The Bruins are 2-5 as a road underdog while the Jets are 88-41 (+23.5 net games) as a favorite, including 18-3 this season (+13.0 net games).  Take Winnipeg.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Tennessee State Tigers + the points over Western Kentucky.  The Hilltoppers come into Tuesday night's game off a blowout win over Evansville, 79-65.  They're laying double-digits tonight, and we'll happily grab the points with the Tigers.  Western Kentucky is a wallet-breaking 15-28 ATS as a double-digit home favorite off a double-digit win.  Take Tennessee State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights over Penn State.  The Knights have dropped 3 in a row, with losses to Alabama, Texas A&M and Ohio State.  But each of those games was away from home.  The Knights are back in Piscataway for this Big 10 clash vs. the Nittany Lions.  Rutgers is an awesome 21-4 ATS at home when not laying more than 3 points, when matched up against foes with a win percentage greater than .600.  Take Rutgers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:00 pm, our selection is on the Brown Bruins + the points over Rhode Island.  There's nothing the Bruins relish more than pulling an upset over their (bigger) cross-state rival.  Indeed, the Bruins were underdogs each of the last three meetings, and won those games outright, as 8-point, 5-point, and 4-point underdogs.  The Bruins are currently on a 5-game win streak (including 3-0 ATS their last 3), and have covered 14 of 18, dating back to last season.  Brown is 16-7-1 ATS when on a 3-game SU/ATS win streak.  Take Brown + the points.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Miami-Fla Hurricanes + the points over Tennessee.  The Hurricanes have been installed as a huge underdog vs. the #3-ranked Volunteers.  We'll grab the points, as Miami is 59-24 ATS when catching double-digits away from home, if it wasn't off a loss by more than 15 in its previous game.  Take the Hurricanes.

At 8:15 pm, on Monday, our selection is on the Cincinnati Bengals minus the points over Dallas.  The Bengals come into this game off 3 straight losses, including a 44-38 defeat as a home favorite vs. Pittsburgh last Sunday.  We'll take the Bengals to bounce back in Dallas, as NFL teams that scored more than 36 points in defeat have gone 43-23 ATS in their next game, including a perfect 5-0 ATS on Monday Nights.  Look for Joe Burrow & Co. to roast the Cowboys.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:15 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati/Dallas game to go UNDER the total.  The Bengals gave up 44 points last week to the Pittsburgh Steelers.  But off that defensive debacle, we'll look for a much better defensive effort tonight.  Indeed, Cincy has gone 65-45 UNDER the total following a game where they gave up 33+ points, including 39-17 UNDER on the road.  And Monday Night Football games, where the home team was installed as an underdog, have gone 44-20-2 UNDER (compared to 53-46 OVER when the home team was favored), including 30-7-2 UNDER when the O/U line was between 43 and 50 points.  Take the UNDER.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Penn Quakers + the points over VCU.  The Rams have gotten off to a strong 7-2 start this season, while Penn is 3-6 SU and 1-8 ATS after back to back SU/ATS losses to Elon and Drexel.  VCU has been installed as a huge home favorite vs. Penn.  And we'll happily grab the points, as the Rams are a brutal 1-11 ATS when they owned a .750 (or better) win percentage, and were not getting more than 3 points against a non-conference foe on a 2-game (or worse) ATS losing streak.  And Penn is a super 70.5% ATS in non-conference games, when installed as an underdog, and off back to back SU/ATS losses.  Take the Quakers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Golden Gophers + the points over the Indiana Hoosiers.  The Gophers were blasted in their Big 10 opener by Michigan State, 90-72, and will now face a Hoosiers team playing its first Big 10 game of the season.  We'll fade Indiana, as it is an ugly 30-58 ATS vs. a conference foe which lost its previous game by more than 12 points.  Take Minnesota as a big underdog.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Denver Nuggets + the points over the Atlanta Hawks.  The Nuggets have lost their last two games (and have failed to cover their last four).  We'll take Denver this evening, as it is 35-18 ATS when it's lost its last three games ATS, and is matched up against a .400 (or better) foe.  Look for the Nuggets to halt Atlanta's 6-game win streak.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 5:10 pm, our selection is on the Charlotte Hornets + the points over the Indiana Pacers.  The Pacers have been installed as a big favorite vs. the Hornets on this Sunday.  Charlotte has lost 8 straight (including the last 3 ATS).  But we'll grab the points with the Hornets, as the Pacers are a poor 24-51-4 ATS vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS losses, if the Pacers weren't getting more than 8 points.  We'll fade Indy as a big favorite today.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the UNDER in the Pittsburgh Steelers/Cleveland Browns game.  These two teams played very high-scoring games last week.  The Steelers won, 44-38, while the Browns lost at Denver, 41-32.  Over the last 45 years, games between teams that each played a high-scoring game the previous week that totaled more than 72 points have gone UNDER the total 75% of the time.  Take the Under.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the New York Giants + the points over the New Orleans Saints.  The Giants have lost their last 7 in a row -- both SU and ATS.  I'll take New York + the points, as teams off 7+ point spread defeats have gone 16-4-2 ATS when priced as an underdog of less than 6 points.  Take New York.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Purdue Boilermakers minus the points over Maryland.  The Boilers lost their Big 10 opener on Thursday, as Penn State saddled Matt Painter's men with an 81-70 setback.  We'll take Purdue to bounce back here, in West Lafayette, as it is 59-26 ATS at home vs. Big 10 foes, if it was off an ATS loss, and not favored by double-digits.  Lay the points with Purdue.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Clemson Tigers + the points over SMU.  The Tigers were upset by South Carolina, 17-14, last week, and have been installed as an underdog in this ACC Championship game.  Clemson is 71-44-1 ATS when installed as a pup, including 13-4 ATS in the post-season (and 4-0 ATS in the post-season if it was off an upset loss).  Take the Tigers.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Penn State Nittany Lions + the points over Oregon.  Single-digit underdogs have gone 5-1-1 ATS in Big 10 Conference title games, and that's the way we'll look in this game.  The Ducks have burned money in the post-season when favored by 14 or less points, as they've gone 5-13 ATS, including 0-5 ATS their last five.  Meanwhile, the Nitts have gone 8-3 ATS in the post-season when installed as an underdog of less than 6 points (or PK).  Take Penn State + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana-Lafayette Rajin' Cajuns minus the points over Marshall.  The Thundering Herd went into Harrisonburg last week, and upset James Madison, in overtime, 35-33.  We'll fade Marshall here, as it has gone 2-9 ATS off an upset conference win.  And it also falls into a negative 34-93-1 ATS system of mine which fades certain teams off upset wins.  Additionally, the Cajuns are a super 29-16 ATS vs. conference foes with winning records, while Marshall is 21-30-1 ATS in conference games vs. winning foes.  Lay the points with Louisiana-Lafayette.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the USC Trojans + the points over Washington.  The Trojans come into this Big 10 Conference game on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak.  We'll grab the points with USC as it's cashed 75% of its conference road games as an underdog of 8 or less points, when it was on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak.  USC has also won the last nine meetings (6-3 ATS) with Washington, including 82-75 outright last March here, in Seattle, as a 4-point dog.  And Washington has covered just 8 of 23 as a favorite vs. conference foes off 3 SU/ATS losses.  Take USC + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 5:30 pm, our selection is on the Houston Cougars minus the points over Butler.  The Cougars lost a week ago to San Diego State, 73-70.  We'll take Kelvin Sampson's men to rebound off that bad game, as Houston has gone 26-10 ATS at home when it was on a point spread losing streak, including a perfect 7-0 ATS vs. .800 (or better) foes.  Lay the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the Boise St. Broncos minus the points over Washington St.  The Broncos play this game with revenge from a 5-point loss to Wazzu last season.  We'll lay the points, as Boise has cashed 64% over the last 35 years when playing with revenge and favored by 3+ points.  Take Boise.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the NC State Wolfpack minus the points over Florida State.  The Wolfpack lost their 3rd straight game on Wednesday when they fell here, in Raleigh, by 4 points to Texas.  I like NC State to bounce back at home, as it has cashed 75% since 1990 in Raleigh  when it was off 3 SU/ATS losses, if its opponent was also off a loss.  With FSU checking in off a double-digit loss to LSU, we'll lay the points this afternoon with NC State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Arizona Wildcats minus the points over Southern Utah.  The Wildcats come into this game off back to back losses to Oklahoma and West Virginia.  We'll lay the points with Arizona, as it has cashed 85% of its non-conference home games over the past 35 years off back to back losses.  Take the Wildcats.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Tulane Green Wave + the points over George Mason.  The Green Wave are on an 0-4 SU/ATS run after losing to SE Louisiana on Monday.  We'll grab the points with Tulane, as it's cashed 58% since 1990 on the road off 3+ SU/ATS losses.  Take the Green Wave.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the North Carolina Tar Heels minus the points over Georgia Tech.  The Tar Heels are on a 3-game losing streak after losing to Alabama, 94-79.  The good news for UNC is that it's a wallet-fattening 76-40-4 ATS when favored by 4+ points off a SU loss.  Lay the big number with the Heels.

At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Arizona State Sun Devils over Iowa State.  Arizona State has been installed as a small favorite vs. the Cyclones.  ASU has cashed 7 straight as a favorite, while the Cyclones are 2-15-1 ATS their last 18 vs. .750 (or better) foes, including 0-10-1 ATS in Big 12 Conference games.  Take the Sun Devils.

At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Timberwolves over the Golden State Warriors.  After losing 7 of 9 to fall to 8-10, the T-Wolves have won their last 3 games, including their most recent two by double-digits.  They blew out the Lakers, 109-80, on Monday, and then throttled the Clippers by an almost-identical score, 108-80, on Wednesday.  I won't step in front of the T-Wolves here, as Minny is 6-0 SU/ATS its last six on the road off back-to-back double-digit wins.  And it is 47-25 ATS when not laying more than 2 points, including 8-1 ATS vs. an unrested foe.  Take the T-Wolves.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over the Vegas Golden Knights.  Dallas comes into this game off a 3-2 loss at Los Angeles.  We'll take the Stars to bounce back tonight, as they're 29-14 (+8.7 net games) off a road loss, including 18-8 (+8.0 net games) on the road.  Even better:  the Stars are 49-24 (+12.2 net games) as a road favorite, and 4-1 in the last five meetings with the Golden Knights.  Take the Stars.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Indiana Pacers minus the points over the Chicago Bulls.  Last night, Chicago went into San Antone, and blew out the Spurs, 139-124.  And that was the Bulls' 2nd straight blowout win, as they smashed Brooklyn, 128-102, on Monday.  We'll fade the unrested Bulls tonight vs. the rested Pacers, as Chicago is 82-133 ATS at home off back to back point spread wins, if it was playing a rested opponent.  Lay the points with the Pacers. 

At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets minus the points over Golden State.  The Rockets are a road favorite tonight vs. the Warriors, who will be without their All-Star, Steph Curry.  We'll lay the points with Houston, which seeks to bounce back off its 9-point loss at Sacramento on Tuesday.  The Rockets are 19-11 ATS off an ATS loss, when playing a foe off an ATS win (including 5-0 ATS their last five).  Lay the points with Ime Udoka's men.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10 pm, our selection is on Long Beach State + the points over Cal State Fullerton.  Long Beach State was upset, 76-71, by the Titans in the last meeting.  We'll grab the points with The Beach, as they've gone 32-8 ATS as a revenge-minded underdog off an ATS loss.  Take Long Beach State.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Arkansas State Red Wolves minus the points over Jackson State.  Last season, the Tigers went into Jonesboro, and upset the Red Wolves, 75-71, as an 8-point dog.  We'll fade the Tigers, as they're a poor 1-12 ATS vs. revenge-minded foes that they beat on the road in the previous meeting.  Take Arkansas State minus the points.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the TCU Horned Frogs plus the points over Xavier.  Jamie Dixon's men have gone 4-0 at home this season, but have gone 0-3 away from home, including upset losses against Santa Clara and Colorado State last week at the Acrisure Invitational.  The good news, then, is that tonight's game is back in Fort Worth.  We'll grab the points with TCU and fade Xavier, as the Musketeers are 0-5 ATS their last five road games.  Even better:  the Musketeers are 1-10 ATS on the road vs. foes off back-to-back SU/ATS losses, when the Musketeers were not laying more than 3 points.  Take TCU.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Charlotte Hornets + the points over New York.  Yes, the Hornets have lost 6 straight.  But they're winning where it matters:  against the spread.  Charlotte is 13-8 ATS this season, and would have covered for the 7th time in 8 games on Tuesday, but for a last-second turnover, which lead to a meaningless lay-up by Philly at the end of the game.  The Knicks are a poor 15-27 ATS off a SU win, if they were favored by 12+ points.  Take Charlotte as a big dog.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Denver Nuggets + the points over Cleveland.  The Nuggets have been installed as a road underdog at 19-3 Cleveland.  Denver is 33-17 ATS its last 50 as an underdog (or PK), including 21-6 ATS when catching more than 3 points.  I won't fade these numbers.  Take Denver + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
