12-27-22 | Seton Hall v. Marquette -7 | 69-83 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
Seton Hall at Marquette 8:00 ET Golden Eagles (-) over Pirates- Marquette coach Shaka Smart is non-too happy about the Golden Eagles double-overtime loss at Providence where the Friars shot 30 more free throws. That was the first loss for them to a team outside the Top-25 ( not that providence is all that bad). Most trends surrounding this game favor Seton Hall but the Pirates are a notch below past teams and the Eagles are just a better overall club with a much deeper bench. Take MARQUETTE! |

12-27-22 | Hawks -119 v. Pacers | 114-129 | Loss | -119 | 8 h 2 m | Show | |
Atlanta at Indiana 8:00 ET Hawks over Pacers- The question here is will these clubs continue on their current trends. Indiana lost to New Orleans last night as they scored just 38 points at the half and were never in it. For Atlanta they caught fire in the second half against Detroit Friday and scored 70 points in their 25 point win. This is the first of three meetings this season sn the Hawks swept all four games last season and they are 5-1 ATS in their last six trips to Indiana. Take ATLANTA! |

12-27-22 | 76ers v. Wizards +5 | Top | 111-116 | Win | 100 | 8 h 32 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over 76ers- Currently the hottest team in the NBA Philadelphia has won eight straight and are 7-1 ATS since their OT loss to Houston back on December 5. The 76ers have been doing this without one of their more impact players in Tyrese Maxey who returns to action tonight. These two have already split two games this season each winning on the others home floor. The Sixers have done it with defense which is second allowing 107.7 and they won seven of those games at home. on the road they are a different team as they are 9-19-1 ATS in their last 29 road games. Take WASHINGTON! |

12-27-22 | East Carolina -7 v. Coastal Carolina | 53-29 | Win | 100 | 8 h 3 m | Show | |
Coastal Carolina vs East Carolina 6:45 ET Pirates (-) over Chanticleers- Coastal Carolina has one of the more outstanding quarterbacks in the country in Grayson McCall who has entered the transfer portal but will still play in this game. McCall has thrown for 8,019 yards and 78 TD passes and only eight interceptions as a four-year starter. The Chanticleers can reach 10 wins for the third straight year while the Pirates have won a bowl game in nine years and have had back-to-back winning seasons for the first rime since 2013-14. East Carolina at 7-5 is favored over a 9-3 Coastal team and that seems a bit odd but, the Pirates have QB Holton Ahlers a five year starter who has thrown for 3,408 yards and 23 touchdowns with five interceptions this season. Chanticleers are 2-8 ATS against winning team and are 13-5-1 ATS against winning team. Take EAST CAROLINA! |

12-26-22 | Hornets +5.5 v. Blazers | 113-124 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
Charlotte at Portland 10:30 ET Hornets (+) over Trailblazers- Now here is something that I never realized and it is that Charlotte has dropped 14 straight games to the Trailblazers and haven’t defeated Portland since March 29, 2008 when they were know a the Bobcats. The Hornets will be without Miles Bridges who is suspended for domestic violence charge but will have LaMelo Ball healthy and a hot Gordon Hayward. Hornets are 9-4-1 ATS on the road against winning teams and 25-12-2 ATS in their last 39 road games overall. Take CHARLOTTE! |
|||||||
12-26-22 | Jazz v. Spurs +4.5 | 122-126 | Win | 100 | 7 h 14 m | Show | |
Utah at San Antonio 8:00 ET Spurs (+) over Jazz- Gone of late is talk of Gregg Popovich and his greatness as a coach as San Antonio has become an also-ran and much of the time they are not even competitive. Yet, over the years the Spurs have had their way against the Jazz going 24-9-1 ATS in the last 34 meetings. Utah’s Colin Sexton has returned to action but is playing time is still reduced. Look for the Spurs to come with a huge effort after a 20-point loss at Orlando. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-26-22 | Chargers v. Colts +4 | Top | 20-3 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 56 m | Show |
LA Chargers at Indianapolis 8:15 ET Colts (+) over Chargers- These Colts have been something else this season and what else I couldn’t tell you other than we’ve don’t pretty well betting on and against them. Indy has lost four straight including losing the biggest lead in NFL history. Now, don’t you think that would embarrass you. The Chargers have been even better to us as we have no problems fading Herbert in the right spots and this is one of them. Indianapolis has changed quarterbacks once again and this time it will be Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles who with any luck won’t have to face Joey Bosa who does not appear to be ready. The Chargers are 1-3-1 ATS after a SU win and the underdog is 7-2-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Colts 5-0 ATS after allowing 30 points or more. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |
|||||||
12-26-22 | Wolves +2 v. Heat | Top | 110-113 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 20 m | Show |
Minnesota at Miami 7:30 ET Timberwolves (-) over Heat- The Heat have fallen below the break even mark by dropping their last two games at home with Jimmy Butler ailing. Miami is 5-7 without Butler and just don’t play at the high level of more recent seasons. The T-wolves are a weak rebounding team and Miami is even worse but they can shoot the ball ranking third at 49% from the floor while the Heat are second to last in scoring only ahead of the Clippers. The Heat are just 3-13-1 ATS at home while Wolves are 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine meetings. Take MINNESOTA! |

12-25-22 | Suns +3.5 v. Nuggets | Top | 125-128 | Win | 100 | 18 h 18 m | Show |
Phoenix at Denver 10:30 ET Suns (+) over Nuggets- After cruising in a 26-point win over the LA Lakers Phoenix dropped a pair at home to Washington and then Friday night to the Grizzlies by 25 points. The Suns have been without Devin Booker who missed the last two games and has missed five of seven but expected to play Christmas night. Denver has won their last five home games and this is their fourth in-a-row as hosts. No matter Suns are 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings and the Nuggets are 4-10 ATS after a 10-point win. Take PHOENIX! |

12-25-22 | Bucs v. Cardinals +8 | Top | 19-16 | Win | 100 | 16 h 1 m | Show |
Tampa Bay at Arizona 8:15 ET Cardinals (+) over Buccaneers- Tampa Bay leads the NFC South with a 6-8 record and is looking to back into a playoff spot by winning the division with a less than .500 record. With Carolina and New Orleans at 6-9 but holding the tie-breaking edge, so it just adds pressure on an already flawed team. Arizona is already out of the playoff picture and will have former Penn State QB 26-year old first time-starter Trace McSorely under center while the GOAT Tom Brady has started 330 times. Bucs are 1-10-1 ATS in their last 12 games overall and are dead last in rushing. Cardinals 4-0 ATS in the four meetings. Take ARIZONA! |
|||||||
12-25-22 | Bucks v. Celtics -4.5 | Top | 118-139 | Win | 100 | 13 h 49 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Boston 3:30 ET Celtics (-) over Bucks- Despite a mini slump where they just lost three straight and five of six everyone in the know seems to think that Boston is the team to beat this year and by the looks of this line I believe the odds-maker thinks so too. Milwaukee has dropped their last two games and this is their four straight on the road while Boston has been home since Dec. 16 and this will be their fifth straight at home. The Celtics just have so much fire power with Brown and Tatum leading the charge and balancing the ‘Greek Freak.’ Take BOSTON! |

12-25-22 | Broncos -2.5 v. Rams | Top | 14-51 | Loss | -120 | 12 h 12 m | Show |
Denver at LA Rams 4:30 ET Broncos (-) over Rams- This has got to be the ‘You have got to be kidding’ game of the week. With both these teams at 4-10 there really shouldn’t be much interest in the match-up except that the Super Bowl Champs are a home underdog to one of the worst offensive teams ever to grace the NFL averaging 15.6 points. With 12 different offensive line-ups and leading the league in sacks allowed and by now have just given up while Hackett’s Broncos are fighting for his job. Take DENVER! |
|||||||
12-25-22 | Packers v. Dolphins OVER 49.5 | 26-20 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
Green Bay at Miami 1:00 ET Packers/Dolphins (OVER)- Miami comes limping home after three straight road losses and they didn’t look good at any time during their slide. Green Bay has won back-to-back games to give many false hope and even Aaron Rodgers is upbeat. Tua Tagovailoa still leads the NFL in QB rating 107.8 and will be back in his comfort zone where the Dolphins are 5-1 SU and scored 30 and 39 in their last two home starts. Look both QB’s to have good days weather permitting and this should go OVER the total. OVER! |
|||||||
12-25-22 | 76ers v. Knicks +2.5 | 119-112 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at New York 12:00 ET Knicks (+) over 76ers- The moment I saw this match-up (they have had lines up for these games since opening night tip-off) i though this is trouble. The NBA starts the days with Joel Embiid playing in his first Christmas Day games and vowing to display his talents before ‘the world’ on it’s biggest stage. The Knicks were just had an eight-game winning streak stopped at home by the Raptors followed by another to the Bulls. The 76ers enter this fray winning their last seven (6-1 ATS) with Joel on a mission. The line seems short and looks too inviting and this is nit a Christmas gift. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
12-24-22 | Raiders +2 v. Steelers | 10-13 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 59 m | Show | |
Las Vegas at Pittsburgh 8:15 ET Raiders (+) over Steelers- This would have been an emotional day as it was with the anniversary of Franco Harris’s Immaculate Reception and now with his passing just day’s before he was to be honored it should have a strong impact. Las Vegas after horrid start to the season have won 4-of-5 and have blown leads of 13 points or more four this season. Trubisky will sit if Pickett clears protocol and they are just 4-11 after a SU win and the Raiders are 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings. Take LAS VEGAS! |
|||||||
12-24-22 | Eagles v. Cowboys -4 | 34-40 | Win | 100 | 18 h 56 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Dallas 4:25 ET Cowboys (-) over Eagles- The soaring Eagles are 13-1 on the season and a perfect 7-0 SU on the road but just 2-5 ATS because they have been favored. Hurts is out and a Gardner Minshew will run the show and he has been more than capable in his limited play although he was 7-13 as a starter at Jacksonville. He had 186 yards 2 TD’s and an interception against the Cowboys last year in a loss. Dak Prescott was out in the first meeting and will look to raise he stock against one of the top defenses in the NFL. So...lay it! Take DALLAS! |
|||||||
12-24-22 | Bengals v. Patriots +3 | Top | 22-18 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 5 m | Show |
Cincinnati at New England 1:00 ET Patriots (+) over Bengals- How can anyone possibly play on the Patriots and against the Bengals after what we all witnessed last week. New England was in a dead heat with Las Vegas as time was expiring and for some reason decided that they had to win the game on the final play and second to Franco’s catch this could be the wildest final play of all time. Cincinnati meanwhile came from 17-0 and forced five straight turnover to defeat megabucks Tampa Bay. With the jets loss Thursday Cincy has clinched a playoff spot and will be care free and easy...nothing comes easy in the NFL. Take NEW ENGLAND! |
|||||||
12-24-22 | Lions v. Panthers +2.5 | Top | 23-37 | Win | 100 | 15 h 56 m | Show |
Detroit at Carolina 1:00 ET Panthers ()+) over Lions- Here me roar... the Lions are lining up their pray and have the Panthers in sight alone with a possible wild card spot. Since blowing a huge lead to the Dolphins on October 30 Detroit has won six of seven games and have gone 7-0 ATS over that span. Carolina who is still just one-game off the lead in the NFL South was completely shut down at Pittsburgh last week and will atone for that with an all out effort here. The home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the underdog is 8-2 ATS in the last eight meetings. Panthers 4-0 ATS last four versus the NFC. Take CAROLINA! |
|||||||
12-23-22 | Hornets +3.5 v. Lakers | 134-130 | Win | 100 | 11 h 38 m | Show | |
Charlotte at LA Lakers 10:30 ET Hornets (+) over Lakers- Both of these clubs are absolutely dreadful as the impostor Lakers are like a walking MASH unite and Charlotte is just not very good to start with. The Hornets have dropped 9-of-10 and trailed the Clippers by 36 points before the first half ended. Lebron James at 40 years old is still putting up All-Star numbers with 27.1 ppg, 8.4 rebounds and 7.6 assists, his number are balanced with the return of LaMelo Ball is off his first Triple-Double of the season with 25 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds. Lakers 2-6-1 ATS last nine without Davis who was second in NBA rebounding. Take CHARLOTTE! |

12-23-22 | Raptors +4.5 v. Cavs | Top | 118-107 | Win | 100 | 8 h 38 m | Show |
Toronto at Cleveland 7:30 ET Raptors (+) over Cavaliers- It seems that we will need a reversal of fortune to win this match-up as the Cavaliers have the best home record in the NBA going 16-2 straight-up 13-4-1 ATS while Toronto is just 4-12 SU but 7-9 ATS. I really like this Cleveland squad but the Raptors who just ended a 6-game losing streak by defeating the Knicks and stopping their winning streak at eight. Now, they can stop the Cavs who have five straight wins and are 2-5 ATS after a win. Take TORONTO. |

12-23-22 | Clippers +3.5 v. 76ers | Top | 114-119 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 9 m | Show |
LA Clippers at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Clippers (+) over 76ers- Tonight finishes a 14 day seven game home stand for Philadelphia and they have won all six covering five time. The started against the Lakers and will end it against the Clippers tonight. LA has won their last two as they are starting to get healthy and have played tough through their adversary. Joel Embiid leads the NBA in scoring and appears to be on that MVP mission and stated that he’s finally apply to see that the 76ers will be playing on Christmas day so he can showcase his talents to the world. But, that is Sunday...take LA CLIPPERS! |

12-23-22 | Wake Forest v. Missouri +2.5 | Top | 27-17 | Loss | -104 | 16 h 29 m | Show |
Wake Forest vs Missouri 6:30 ET Tigers (+) over Demon Deacons- Wake Forest quarterback Sam Hartman is on the brink of setting numerous ACC records starting with his next touchdown pass. His task should be that much easier as three of Missouri’s standout defenders are deferring to the NFL draft and will not be in play. That being known the odds makers never blink and the price hasn’t changed even with other entering the transfer portal. Missouri played a much tougher schedule and played some pretty good defense ranking No. 28 allowing only 337 ypg. Deacons just 4-10 ATS last-14 on grass and the Tigers are 5-1 ATS on grass. Take MISSOURI! |

12-22-22 | Jaguars v. Jets -130 | Top | 19-3 | Loss | -130 | 19 h 46 m | Show |
Jacksonville at New York Jets 8:15 ET Jaguars over Jets- A pair of clubs that are moving in opposite directions as the Jets have dropped three in-a-row while Jacksonville has won 3-of-4 with wins over Dallas, Tennessee and Baltimore. New York has out-gained Detroit, Buffalo and Minnesota by a over a combined 300 yards and still lost because of big play defensive breakdowns. Zach Wilson the No. 2 pick behind Trevor Lawrence in2021 will get to starting nod over Mike white for has a headache. The Jets have won five of the last seven meetings including a 26-21 last season as hosts and they do it once again. Take the J-E-T-S! |

12-22-22 | Spurs +8.5 v. Pelicans | 117-126 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 50 m | Show | |
San Antonio at New Orleans 8:00 ET Spurs (+) over Pelicans- Things are taking a down turn of late for the Pelicans as they have lost their last four and will be without Zion Williamson tonight. This is the third meeting of the season and the Spurs lost them by 19 and 18 points and they will meet one more time in March. San Antonio is 9-4 ATS after a SU win and despite the two losses this year are 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Pels 2-6 ATS playing on two days rest. Take SAN ANTONIO! |
|||||||
12-22-22 | Air Force v. Baylor -3 | Top | 30-15 | Loss | -120 | 9 h 28 m | Show |
Air Force vs Baylor 7:30 ET Bears (-) over Falcons- The moment I saw this match-up I knew I would have Air Force...not so fast my friend. Of course that was my keen jerk reaction and I stayed with it for a while. But, Baylor has dropped their final three games and after playing seven straight bowl opponents they will have played a much tougher schedule. Air Force leads the nation in rushing and total defense as well as time of possession but this isn’t New Mexico or UNLV it is a Big-12 power and they will wear down the Falcons. Take BAYLOR! |
|||||||
12-21-22 | USC v. Colorado State +3 | Top | 73-64 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 36 m | Show |
Colorado State vs Southern California 11:00 ET Rams (+) over Trojans- As their coach stated ‘this is our biggest win of the year by far.’ Comments that make me think that USC must really be full of themselves after their 74-71 victory over No. 19 Auburn. If the Trojans continue to think of how great a win they had last time out they will get ambushed this time at home against Colorado State. On the other end of the spectrum the Rams were defeated earlier this season by Northern Colorado who was rated No. 207. CSU is off a 62-60 win at St. Mary’s (not as easy to do as you might think. This number is way too low and I won’t be surprised of the Rams win on the floor. Take COLORADO STATE! |

12-21-22 | South Alabama -3.5 v. Western Kentucky | Top | 23-44 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 51 m | Show |
Western Kentucky vs South Alabama 9:00 ET Jaguars (-) over Hilltoppers- Last season I saw the Hilltoppers in the Boca Bowl blow out Appalachian State 59-38 as Bailey Zappe threw six touchdown passes, zero interceptions and for and for 422 yards. Austin Reed has replaced Bailey and has thrown for 4,249 yards and 36 TD passes for 8-5 Western Kentucky and was named USA New Comer of the Year. This is year’s squad overall is not as good as last year’s version and they will be up against the No. 11 defense in yards allowed surrendering just 303.4 per game. Toppers are 1-4 ATS against the Sun Belt Conference and the Jaguars are 4-0 ATS in non-conference games as well as 8-3 ATS on field turf. Take SOUTH ALABAMA! |

12-21-22 | Auburn -3.5 v. Washington | Top | 84-61 | Win | 100 | 9 h 37 m | Show |
Auburn at Washington 11:00 ET Tigers (-) over Huskies- Auburn started the season 8-0 but have dropped 2-of-3 as the competition got tougher as they lost to Memphis and in their first road game to USC Sunday. It was one of those games where even a 32-19 rebounding edge over the Trojans didn’t help as 23 turnovers were key. The Huskies have played two games against real competitors and lost them both to Gonzaga and Oregon State. The Tigers lead the nation in blocked shots averaging an incredible 7.5 blocks. The cream rises and the tigers bite the Huskies. Take AUBURN! |
|||||||
12-21-22 | Notre Dame -1 v. Florida State | 72-73 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
Notre Dame at Florida State 8:30 ET Fighting Irish over Seminoles- The Fighting Irish are coming off back-to-back losses and are looking for their first ACC win of the season. Notre Dame has five starters that average double figures but its defense has been spotty as they rank 222 in points allowed. Florida State has had numerous injuries that have force them to play small ball. The trouble with that is this is not baseball where it can work as they are No. 335 in rebounds per game averaging just 29.2. ND is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games while Florida State is 3-11-1 ATS in their last 15 games following a loss. Take NOTRE DAME! |

12-21-22 | Raptors +2 v. Knicks | Top | 113-106 | Win | 100 | 7 h 49 m | Show |
Toronto at New York 7:30 ET Raptors (+) over Knicks- So here we have the hottest team in the NBA the New York Knicks who have won eight straight at home against the raptors who have lost six in-a-row. So, how can the odds maker decide that the Knicks should be less than a bucket favorites. It looks too easy especially when we see that the Raptors are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in New York. Take TORONTO! |

12-20-22 | Virginia v. Miami-FL +4 | Top | 64-66 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show |
Virginia at Miami-FL 8:30 ET Hurricanes (+) over Cavaliers- I have seen No. 6 Virginia up close and alone with UCLA I believe to be the most over-rated teams in college basketball. The Cavaliers suffered their first loss of the season last time out against Houston (Megabucks winner) while No. 22 Miami are winners of seven straight games. Virginia has won the past six meetings and under coach Tony Bennett are once again defensive leaders allowing just 59.1 PPG. The Canes have averaged 81.6 PPG during their current winning streak and are No. 8 in offensive efficiency. Take MIAMI-FL. |

12-20-22 | Bulls +5 v. Heat | Top | 113-103 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show |
Chicago at Miami 7:30 ET Bulls (+) over Hurricanes-Miami defeated the Bulls 116-108 in the season opener and will meet for the second time tonight. The Heat are struggling on offense and are second to last in points scored and are at the bottom in most offensive categories. In a mirror of each other the Bulls have lost four straight while Miami have won four straight. Reverse of form here. Take CHICAGO! |

12-20-22 | Toledo v. Liberty +4 | Top | 21-19 | Win | 100 | 18 h 43 m | Show |
Liberty vs Toledo 7:30 ET Flames (+) over Rockets- In recent season’s the Liberty Flames have come to national prominence and have won three straight Bowl games. But, the enter this fray having lost not only three straight but lost their head coach as well as Hugh Freeze who departed for Auburn. Toledo is led by quarterback Dequan Finn and have never lost (3-0) to the Flames. The problems for the Rockets is that a one-man gang doesn’t fare well against tough defenses. Liberty was wasted by New Mexico State 49-14 last time out allowing over 200 yards rushing and they are 13-3-1 ATS after allowing 200 or more rushing yards. Add that the Rockets are 1-5 ATS both against winning teams and on neutral sites. Take LIBERTY |

12-19-22 | Rams v. Packers -7 | Top | 12-24 | Win | 100 | 24 h 2 m | Show |
LA Rams at Green Bay 8:20 ET Packers (-) over Rams- Never before has a defending Super Bowl Champion (4-9) won only four games after 13 weeks of play and never before has Aaron Rogers with and his Packers so inept. Green Bay who has dominated the NFL North with during Rodgers’ rein with occasional pressure from the Vikings. As it is the Packers have won seven of the last eight meetings going 8-0 ATS with Rogers tossing 20 TD passes and only three interceptions. The Rams are 31st on offense ahead of only Houston averaging 283 YPG and are 1-4 ATS after a SU win. That’s enough for me. Take GREEN BAY! |

12-19-22 | Bucks v. Pelicans +1.5 | Top | 128-119 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
Milwaukee at New Orleans 8:00 ET Pelicans (+) over Bucks- New Orleans returns home having lost three straight on the road after blowing a 24-point lead to Phoenix Saturday night. They started on their trek with a seven game winning steak and are 4-1 ATS in their last five games at home. Milwaukee rebounded from a 41-point loss to Memphis with a 123-97 win over Utah without Giannis and Middleton and they are 2-8-2 ATS after a SU win. This match-up is a clash of trends as the Bucks bring the No. 4 defense while the Pelicans bring the No. 4 offense to play.Take NEW ORLEANS! |

12-19-22 | Connecticut v. Marshall -10.5 | 14-28 | Win | 100 | 21 h 32 m | Show | |
Marshall vs Connecticut 2:30 ET Thundering Herd (-) over Huskies- Who-ray for the Huskies who in the previous seven seasons have had five coaches and nothing close to a winning season. After Connecticut upset Liberty 36-33 to become bowl eligible under first year coach Jim Mora Jr. for the first time since 2015. In that game the Flames out-gained UConn by 165 yards as the Huskies were out-gained in 9-of-11 games. But they were so over-come with glee and emotion with the win that the team (in uniform) remained on the field for an hour after the game to celebrate with the fans. The next week they were pounded by Army and they will have trouble moving the ball against the Herd who are No. 9 on defense in yards allowed while the Huskies barely average 300 YPG. Take MARSHALL! |

12-18-22 | Giants v. Commanders -4.5 | Top | 20-12 | Loss | -110 | 26 h 54 m | Show |
New York Giants at Washington 8:20 ET Commies (-) over Giants- the Giants have on once in six weeks and from what I see out there most expect them to come to life here in Washington a team that they played to a 20-20 tie two weeks ago in New York where the Giants blew a 10-point fourth quarter lead. The former Skins held Barkley in check in the first meeting and this time the league’s No. 4 defense will squash Danny Jones. The Dores are 6-1 ATS in their last seven overall and take control here. Take WASHINGTON! |

12-18-22 | Auburn +1 v. USC | Top | 71-74 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 45 m | Show |
Auburn at USC 5:30 ET Tigers over Trojans- USC is looking to gain some recognition on the hard wood not just the gridiron and a win over No. 19 Auburn in the cages would show their progress (8-3) by defeating a ranked ream. The Trojans have won four straight but just can’t match the Tigers when it comes to depth or defense. Auburn under Bruce Pearl play defense and only allow 61 PPG. USC is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games and are 2-7 ATS after a SU win. Take AUBURN |

12-18-22 | Bengals v. Bucs +4 | Top | 34-23 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 53 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Tampa Bay 4:25 ET Buccaneers (+) over Bengals- Man, Tom Brady once again an underdog at home up against the NFL’s points spread leader Cincinnati at 10-3 ATS while Tampa Bay is dead last at 3-8-1 ATS. You know what has been said for eons and that is out with the old and in with the new as Joe Burrow takes over the mantle as the NFL’s winner! Yeah, it might seem that way but The Buc’s Tom Brady actually leads the NFL in competitions and yardage so the problem falls elsewhere. Burrow mentioned this week that this is just another game but I don’t believe Tampa Bay is approaching it the same way. The Bucs are desperate for a win as their playoff spot slips away. take TAMPA BAY! |

Tennessee at LA Chargers 4:25 ET Titans (+) over Chargers- We were winners with and against both these clubs last weeks as our Vegas Insider jaguars won outright over Tennessee and the Chargers cleaned house with our Sunday Night Stand alone winner over Miami. So, what I am trying to get to is that I believe that i have a really good feel for what is going on and I can see th Titans being a bully to a banged up team that rose to the occasion on national TV and now will revert to form. The Titans are 14-5 ATS on the road against winning teams and th Chargers are 7-20 ATS in their last 27 home games against teams with winning records. Take TENNESSEE! |

12-18-22 | Eagles v. Bears +9 | 25-20 | Win | 100 | 18 h 24 m | Show | |
Philadelphia at Chicago 1:00 ET Bears (+) over Eagles- Okay, I must admit that while they were undergraduates I hardly expected for these two No. 1 quarterback draft picks to emerge as they have. Philadelphia’s Jalen Hurts has taken over the MVP talk on all media outlets and his adversary for Chicago Justin Fields is setting NFL rushing records for QB’s in every start. The Eagles have soared over their last three opponents covering while having a 575 yards gained advantage and that’s pretty dominating. Meanwhile, the Bears have lost their last six and nine of 10 but the have the No. 1 rushing team in the NFL with 189 YPG most provided by QB Fields. Oh, did I fail to mention that that behind that same guy Chicago is dead last in passing.Eagles are just 2-6 ATS in their last eight rod games and the Bears have been so terrible that I can’t even find a positive trend...honest. The positive thing will come with the results. Take CHICAGO! |

12-18-22 | Cowboys v. Jaguars +4 | 34-40 | Win | 100 | 18 h 17 m | Show | |
Dallas at Jacksonville 1:00 ET Jaguars (+) over Cowboys- At this point of the season it appears like Dallas can do just about whatever they want. The didn’t want to crush the Texans last week and were on cruise control until the final four minutes when they turned it on and posted an uninspiring 27-23 victory. When we saw from Vegas Insider winner Jacksonville last week may have been the blooming of Trevor Lawrence as he delivered the type of performance that we have expected. As quick as the cowboys look at home they seem to lose something when playing on natural grass where they are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10. The dog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take JACKSONVILLE! |

12-18-22 | Lions v. Jets +105 | 20-17 | Loss | -100 | 18 h 9 m | Show | |
Detroit at New York Jets 1:00 Jets over Lions- I am the Lions and hear me roar is the mantra out of Detroit right now and why not. Certainly the most impressive turn around in the NFL is the transformation of the Motor City’s grid iron boys who are 5-1 SU in their last six and more importantly they are 6-0 ATS in their last six overall. The Jets have dropped 3-of-4 despite out-gaining each opponent by an average of 150 yards behind QB Mike White. But, guess what? New York had a blond matinee idol in street clothes holding clipboard on the sideline for three weeks and Sunday their No. 1 bust Zach Wilson is back under center. But for the defense it is and will have to be about defense as the leagues No. 3 only allows 301 YPG and they are 5-0 ATS after a SU loss. Take NEW YORK JETS! |

12-17-22 | Vanderbilt +6.5 v. NC State | Top | 66-70 | Win | 100 | 11 h 32 m | Show |
Vanderbilt vs N.C State 10:30 ET Commodores (+) over Wolfpack- These two have very different records and only one common opponent to judge them. This will be a late start in Chicago and is the final game of a quadruple-header at the United Center. For Vanderbilt it will be their first ‘live’ action in nine days and they are ready to get back to the hardwood. This is the sixth meeting with the Commodores having a 3-2 advantage with all six games having being played on neutral sites and Vandy is 7-1 ATS in their last eight games at neutral sites. NC State who is off a huge 92-73 win over under-manned Furman are 5-15-1 ATS after a SU win. Take VANDERBILT! |

12-17-22 | Tennessee +3.5 v. Arizona | 70-75 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
Tennessee at Arizona 10:30 ET Volunteers (+) over Wildcats- This will be a test of a pair of offensive power as Arizona now leads the nation in scoring averaging 92.0 PPG while shooting 54.5% from the floor. Tennessee will be playing their first true road game and for the most part that becomes a challenging experience for them and us. I have seen Arizona live twice already this season and still think that they can be had as they are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games overall and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games. The Vols are 14-5 ATS on the road after three straight home games. Take TENNESSEE! |

12-17-22 | Jazz +4 v. Bucks | Top | 97-123 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 43 m | Show |
Utah at Milwaukee 8:00 ET Jazz (+) over Bucks- I don’t know about these Bucks as this line just doesn’t seem right to me. Memphis is supposed to be one of the stiffer competitors and the Bucks who trailed by 15-points after the first quarter out-scored the Grizzlies by 56 points the final three quarters. I don’t think they’ll do it in back-to-back games and will put my trust in the Jazz who have won their last two games over New Orleans and overcame a 15-point deficit themselves. The Jazz are 30-9 ATS in the last 39 meetings and 6-2 ATS in their last eight trips to the Brew City. Take UTAH! |

12-17-22 | Rice +6.5 v. Southern Miss | 24-38 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 30 m | Show | |
Rice vs Southern Mississippi 5:45 ET Owls (+) over Golden Eagles- Rice enters this bowl contest with three straight losses and the worst record of any teams in bowl games with just five wins in 12 contests and they got here because of the schools academic record. But, these Owls can play averaging 25.3 PPG a full 2-points better than Southern Mississippi who last won a bowl game in 2016 and they are 11-15 in bowl games while Rice is 7-5. These two were conference foes for 17 years in the CUSA from 2005-2021 and were 6-6 head-to-head. The Eagles 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven bowl games. Take RICE! |

UCLA vs Kentucky 5:15 ET Wildcats (+) over Bruins-I just love winning these games involving the UCLA Bruins...sometimes no matter if you are with or against certain teams you have a great insight as to what they are doing night by night. That is how it has been for ‘us’ regarding the Bruins and Kentucky is the perfect opponent for Saturday’s action. The Wildcats dropped a game to No. 2 Gonzaga back on November 20 but have reeled off four straight wins since. When quality programs like this meet the points become such a huge factor as the dog in this series is 4-0 ATS in last four meetings. I’m not going to give you any other trends as they might discourage you. Have no fear! Take KENTUCKY! |

The Cougars are playing in their seventh straight bowl game some started by Mike Leech and had won three in-a-row before nationally ranked rival Washington ended their regular season but they are 7-1 ATS after a SU loss. The Bulldogs are 0-2 against the Pac-12 this season losing Oregon State and USC and 2-7 ATS in their last nine bowl games. Take WASHINGTON STATE! |

Florida (6-6) has had roller coaster ride on the season with the end coming crashing down with losses at Vanderbilt and at rival Florida State and they were never in either contest. Oregon State enters the Vegas Bowl with six straight covers and that sort of has my attention but, the key here is what we are getting out of the Swamp. The Gators will be without starting quarterback Anthony Richardson who threw for 17 TD’s and ran for nine more had over 3,500 yards from scrimmage as well as three other stalwarts and that’s not the last of it.

Indianapolis at Minnesota 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Vikings- Minnesota is in the same spot this week as last when what they need is one victory to clinch the division and a playoff. They are coming off a 34-23 loss at Detroit and are hosting the leagues’ second worst scoring team averaging 16.1 PPG who lost to Dallas 54-19 on December 4. In that contest the Cowboys scored 33 unanswered fourth quarter points and the Colts have had two weeks to regroup and wash away the stench they carried after that game.The Vikings are not respected by the odds makers so I why should I. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |

Denver at LA Lakers 10:00 ET Lakers (-) over Nuggets- The Lakers are on the upswing as they are 9-6 SU in their last 15 games after starting 2-10. Part of the solution for winning for Los Angeles had been the return of a healthy Anthony Davis who bricked a pair of Free-throws in the clutch against Boston which kept the Lakers fro winning in regulation. Denver has been the best of late and are 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall and 9-20 ATS after a SU win and are 1-4 ATS in their last five meetings in Los Angeles. Take the LAKERS! |

The Nets who started 2-7 under Steve Nash are 15-7 SU since replacing him with Jacque Vaughn. Toronto is struggling to return to championship status is 10-4 SU at home while Brooklyn is 7-7 SU on the road with a 114-105 win already at Toronto.

Atlanta at Charlotte 7:00 ET Hornets (+) over Hawks- Both of these clubs have seen better days and have been very disappointing for their backers to date. Charlotte who is expecting the return of Gordon Hayward (Isn’t he always returning from some aliment) have dropped six straight games and the Hawks have been just one-game better in their last six contests going 1-5 SU. But more importantly for the Hornets LaMelo Ball returned to action Wednesday and had 23 points and 11 assists in their loss at Detroit. The Hornets have had their way with Atlanta winning going 10-4-1 ATS as hosts in their series and get it done tonight. Take CHARLOTTE! |

New Orleans at Utah 9:00 ET Jazz ( ) over Pelicans- In what was a rare thing in NBA scheduling the current wave is for many teams to play a pair of games at the same site to reduce travel. So, it was just Tuesday that Utah ended the Pelicans 7-game win streak with a resounding 121-100 victory as they held New Orleans to their second lowest scoring game of the season. Can the Pelicans make the adjustments needed to split the 2-game set. They are a stellar 12-3 at home but just 6-6 on the road and 1-5 ATS in their last six games against teams that have a winning home record. The Jazz are 15-5 SU at home and are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings as hosts. Take UTAH! |

San Francisco at Seattle 8:15 ET Seahawks (+) over 49ers- Maybe the Niners don’t really need a quarterback with experience as they are able to post wins because the the NFL toughest and No. 1 overall defense. San Fran already posted a win over the Seahawks in September and Seattle has dropped their last two games and needs a win in the worst way to right the ship. The 49ers have nothing but positive stats except for one and this trend is way vital. They are just 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 meetings in Seattle and 6-15-1 ATS in the last 22 meetings overall.

Milwaukee who is looking to get back into the winners circle are off a message sending 128-111 win at Golden State and have won 8-of-10. The Bucks continue to pressure their opponents and are No. 2 in defense in points scored allowing 107.6 PPG and are No. 1 in FG % defense. The Grizzlies are off a 128-103 win over Atlanta on Monday and are 2-6 ATS after scoring 125 points or more in their previous game while the Bucks are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games after a win of 10 points or more.

Cleveland at Dallas 9:00 ET Kings (+) over Mavericks- Cleveland is one of the most exciting and improved teams in the NBA and they are looking to make some head way against a team that beat them seven of eight times last season. Part of the Cavaliers improvement is centered around Donovan Mitchell who is averaging 29.0 PPG. The Cavs are looking to bounce back from a loss at San Antonio on Monday when the Spurs ended a nine-game losing streak. Cleveland is the No. 1 defensive club in the NBA allowing just 105-1 PPG and are 3-0-2 ATS after a SU loss while Dallas is 3-9-2 ATS in their last 14 home games. Take CLEVELAND! |

UCLA at Maryland 9:00 ET Terrapins over Bruins- Seems strange that these two will be playing in the same conference next season as the Big Ten has swallowed a former ACC stalwart Maryland and a the PAC-12 legendary UCLA. These Top-25 ranked teams meeting each with a pair of flaws with losses in early season tournaments. Maryland has dropped their last two contests and returns home after losses to Tennessee and at Wisconsin. The Bruins to me were one of the least impressive teams ranked teams in the early part of the season. Terps are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 home games but this price is way low considering the trends. Take UCLA! |

After two straight defeats to and couple of good basketball teams in Oklahoma and Memphis the Rebels rebounded with a 37-point victory over Valparaiso. Mississippi is a perfect 5-0 (3-1-1 ATS) at home and this will be the first true road encounter for the Knights. Central Florida is just 1-6 and ATS in their last seven road games but 5-1 ATS in their last six games against teams with winning records. Take CENTRAL FLORIDA! |

When you look at the stats you can see why the price is what it is. South Carolina is one of the more offensively challenged team in the NCAA ranked No. 331 averaging just 64.2 PPG and their defense is ranked at 211 PPG. The Blazers are one of the top scoring team’s in the nation at No. 6 averaging 87.9 PPG. shooting 49.1% from the floor. Take ALABAMA-BIRMINGHAM! |

Memphis at Alabama 9:00 ET Tigers (+) over Crimson Tide- You have to love the way this game is set up. Alabama accomplished a feat last done by Duke in 1965-66 and that is defeating two different No. 1 teams. The Tide are coming off a 71-65 upset of No. 1 Houston Saturday parlayed with their (4OT) win over then No. 1 North Carolina 103-101. I expect a non-cover in the game following a win like that and that happened after their first upset win. Memphis can play and are on a six-game winning streak after defeating Bama rival Auburn 82-73 on Saturday. Tigers are 13-4 ATS in last 17 games against a team with a winning percentage above 60% or better. Tide 2-8 ATS following an ATS win. Take MEMPHIS! |

Sacramento at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Kings (+) over 76ers- It might be surprising to you because it was to me when I realized it but Sacramento has a better record than the Sixers. Be it just one game but it sort of caught my attention. Now, Philly is coming off an epic performance by Joel Embiid (53-points) who is still on a mission to prove he’s the league’s best and a huge win on Sunday, while the Kings were blown out in New York. Okay, here’s some supporting info, Kings are 15-5 ATS after a loss of 10 points or more as well a 15-7-1 ATS in their last 23 road games. Although Philly holds a big series edge the Kings are 4-1 ATS in the last five game in Philadelphia. Take SACRAMENTO! |

But, like so many clubs that go west they experience what I say is a Bang-Bang Theory, that is when they get beat in back-to-back games. LA has been hurt by injuries and only had Kawhi Leonard and Paul George for the seventh time on Saturday. In a tight one the Clippers get it dome. Take LA CLIPPERS! |

The Sun Devils won 58-57 at Creighton last season and look to do it again with a defense that only allows 59.8 PPG. Devils are 6-0 ATS when playing a team with a winning record. Take ARIZONA STATE! |

New England at Arizona 8:15 ET Cardinals over Patriots- Arizona as we might remember start the 2021 season with seven straight wins and it has been all downhill since. The Cardinals are 4-8 and with five games remaining are 3-games behind the conference leader. Cliff Kingsbury the Red Birds leader is on the hot seat here as the disappointment of the season falls on him and the best shortstop in the NFL Kyler Murray as he has thrown for less than 200 yard in each of the past two games. New England has lost their last two and are having problems at the quarterback position as well as Mac Jones has fallen short of a solid rookie season. In need it’s... ARIZONA! |

12-11-22 | Dolphins v. Chargers +3.5 | Top | 17-23 | Win | 100 | 28 h 2 m | Show |
Miami at LA Chargers 8:20 ET Chargers (+) over Dolphins- I have it on good authority that the Chargers are coming to play this week against the favored Dolphins. Los Angeles (I still have trouble with that) is truly banged up and always do enough to lose but with an excuse be it coaching, penalties or player miscues the always seem to disappoint. Miami was man-handed by the 49ers last week and stayed in southern Cal as opposed to returning round trip to and from Miami. Charger defense has allowed 150 or more yards rushing six straight games but no to worry Miami only averages 89 YRP ranking No. 28. Running the ball is where LA need to shine as they try to recover from an 86 yard performance against Vegas last week and are 9-3 ATS the week after gaining less than 90 yards on the ground. So, it all comes out that that home team gets the Money going 7-3 ATS last 10 meetings. Take LA CHARGERS! |

This time around it will be a little tougher without him as the Badgers (7-2, 1-0) look to win their second Big Ten contest. This game will pit the No. 22 offense of Iowa against the no. 24 defense of Wisconsin. The Badgers are 5-1 ATS on the road and the road team is 9-4-2 ATS in the last 15 meetings. Take WISCONSIN! |

Kansas City at Denver 4:05 ET Broncos (+) over Chiefs- This is a grand match up to the point that the NFL moved it out of the Prime time position. Kansas City has the Number One offense in the NFL in multiple categories including points scored with 29.2 PPG. Denver can boost of the No. 3 defense in yards allowed and No. 2 in points allowed at 17. The Chiefs have won 13 straight in the series and are 7-1 ATS in their last eight trips to Denver while the Broncos (+6) who lost 10-9 last week are 0-7 ATS after a point spread win as well as 1-4 TAS last five at home. But, the Chiefs are in the point spread doldrums and will do just enough to get by. In spite of all that I have given you...take DENVER! |

Cleveland at Cincinnati 1:00 ET Browns (+) over Bengals- I love just about everything about this match up as the AFC defending Champs are off a huge victory over Kansas City last week as Joe Burrow remains undefeated against Patrick Mahomes. But, one team who Burrow has yet to beat on the field is the Browns. Cleveland finally has their starting quarterback in Deshaun Watson who was less then stellar last week against Houston. With the rust being played out I expect a bit of improvement from Watson and a letdown by the Bengals. Take CLEVELAND! |

12-11-22 | Vikings v. Lions -130 | 23-34 | Win | 100 | 21 h 31 m | Show | |
Minnesota at Detroit 1:00 ET Lions (+) over Vikings- Okay, what’s going on? The 5-7 Detroit Lions are the home favorites (-1.5 at this time) against the 10-2 Division leading Vikings. That seems a bit odd and so much so that it has attracted the attention of those outside the point spread genre, meaning that they are think more in terms of Vegas and what the numbers mean. The Lions have covered five straight while Minnesota was out-gained by 200 yards last week by the Jets and still managed (to my chagrin) to cover. But, the way to go in this one is to play the OVER as they have the two worst defenses in the NFL allowing 402 YPG by Detroit and 399 YPG allowed by Minnesota! Still, numbers don’t lie...take DETROIT! |

Jacksonville at Tennessee 1:00 ET Jaguars (+) over Titans- Why does it seem that every week I am looking to play on the Jaguars and against the Titans. Honestly probably more successful against Tennessee but Jacksonville was a huge winner for us over the Ravens two weeks ago. Shiny Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence has had limited practice time this week and is questionable and C.J. Beathard would lead the charge if the ‘big-guy’ can’t make it. With such a drop off in possible QB usage I have to believe that Lawrence will start and the Titans are in for a battle if the Jaguars can bite the leg of Derek Henry. Coming off their worst game of the year the Jaguars surprise in the division game. take JACKSONVILLE! |

These wins came after a 128-117 loss to the Pacers in Indiana back on November 25. Last night the Nets posted a 120-116 win over Atlanta and this being the second of back-to-back games they will have a number a players who will rest. One of course will be Ben Simmons and the other will be Durant and possibly even Irving. Nets are 0-6 ATS in the last six meetings against the Pacers and are 1-10 ATS when starters play a combines 150 minutes the previous night. Take INDIANA! |

The Tigers are like playing in a track meet as they lead the nation in scoring averaging 93 PPG and shoot 51% from the field. The Jayhawks average 77 themselves but the rank 104 on defense. The Tigers biggest scare came in overtime at Wichita State 88-84 overcoming a second half deficit. Revenge and better talent has the Tigers stripes shining. Take MISSOURI! |

Army vs Navy 3:00 ET Cadets (+) over Midshipmen- It has not been the best of seasons for these two service academies who both enter this fray below .500. Navy has been idol since Nov. 19 when the dominated and upset Central Florida 17-14. The Army is second in the nation averaging 306 YPG rushing while the Middles are No. 4 in rushing defense allowing just 85.8 YPG.

Minnesota at Utah 9:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Jazz- The return of 3-time defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert to Utah in a different uniform for the first time is the storyline in the Great Salt Lake state. The Jazz of course are also without Donovan Mitchell and have performed surprising well to date this season winning 17 of 31. The Jazz are off a 124-123 win over Golden State and I don’t expect them to meet that level of play against tonight. T’wolves are 4-0-1 ATS in their last five visits to Utah. Take MINNESOTA! |

Las Vegas at LA Rams 8:15 ET Rams (+) over Raiders- I just love it and if ‘we’ lose this match-up I will have more than egg on my face. Los Angeles is having the worst season after a Super Bowl victory. We all expect a down fall after winning the Big-One but injuries and down play have a decimated roster have been the major factor. Las Vegas on the other hand was so over-rated that they had to tank the first half of the year and then when the public soured on them they started to win. So now, the public is back and they are ready to tank again. PS...2nd worst defense in NFL. Take LA RAMS! |

Iowa State at Iowa 8:00 ET Hawkeyes (-) over Cyclones- Iowa State (7-1) is doing it with defense and are sixth in the nation only allowing 56.8 PPG while for Iowa it is done on offense where they average 83.4 PPG. The Cyclones can be tough under former UNLV leader T.J. Otzelberger who stresses defense. The Hawkeyes are 5-1 ATS following a loss and are 38-18-3 ATS in their last 59 home games and the home team is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings. Take IOWA! |

Phoenix who has been playing without Chris Paul for the past 16 games expects his return soon and maybe even tonight. The Suns were caught in a look-ahead at Dallas Monday night and were crushed 130-111 and are 7-0 ATS after a SU loss. They are also 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings in Phoenix. Take the SUNS! |

Dallas at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (-) over Mavericks- Denver had reeled off fur straight victories before make a tow game road trip to Atlanta and New Orleans where they struggled to provide a healthy line-up. Injuries have forced the Nuggets to shuffle his line-up and the second unit has been out played badly. Dallas comes in off a pair routs at New York and hosting Phoenix. The Mavs have not responded well after a SU win and are 3-13 ATS after a victory while theNuggets are 7-2 ATS after a loss. Take DENVER! |

Iowa vs Duke 9:30 ET Hawkeyes (+) over Blue Devils- Duke is once again the show piece in New York’s Madison Square Garden where they play more often then local city schools. Iowa is playing their second straight against an ACC opponent as they defeated Georgia Tech 81-65 last Tuesday. The Hawkeyes have one loss to TCU when they had their worst shooting day of the season going 3-for-17 from downtown. Iowa is 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games overall and Duke is 1-5 ATS after a SU win. Take IOWA! |

12-05-22 | Saints v. Bucs -3 | Top | 16-17 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 26 m | Show |
New Orleans at Tampa Bay 8:15 ET Saints (-) over Buccaneers- Over the years it has been a losing proposition to fade Tom Brady as he in the greatest winner in NFL history. But, under the current circumstances with limited offensive talent to work with and a head coach that has never been successful as a head coach in his prior experiences. The Buccaneers at 5-6 are in perfect position leading the NFC South by two-games in the loss column over all other division clubs. New Orleans has lost their last two getting shut out by the 49ers last week and have averaged just 250 YPG their last three contests. The Saints are 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings including 4-0 ATS in their last four at Tampa Bay. Bucs 1-7-1 ATS in their last nine home games. But guess what, I am not fading Tom Brady tonight. This is not the same Saints team that was led by Sean Payton. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Boston at Toronto 7:30 ET Raptors (+) over Celtics- Toronto has gone back to the NBA days when home teams had a major advantage and on the road not so much. The Raptors are a stellar 9-2 SU at home while struggling with a 3-9 record on the road. Boston the leagues highest scoring team has no such troubles as they win everywhere...well, almost. Not tonight! Take TORONTO! |

Kansas City at Cincinnati 4:25 ET Bengals (+) over Bengals- All that I’ve heard all week is how Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are looking to extract a measure of revenge against the Bengals who knocked Kansas City out of the playoffs after trailing by double-digits. Kansas City has won five straight and Mahomes leads the NFL with 3,585 yards and 29 TD passes while Cincinnati has won their last two and after an 0-2 start they are 7-2. Here’s the dilio, KC is 0-7-1 ATS in their last eight games versus the AFC and they are 1-4 ATS in their last five trips to the Queen City. Bengals 7-1 ATS in their last eight home games. take CINCINNATI! |

Miami at San Francisco 4;25 ET 49ers(-) over Dolphins- Hey, ya know what I just Heard on Las Vegas radio (no not Brittany pears) but that Miami’s offense in a fraud...personally I don’t think so but they make a good point which I shall share with you all. It was pointed out to me that the Dolphins have been lucky enough to have played against some of the NFL’s worst defenses including games against the Lions, Texans, Bears, Browns and Ravens. They will see a different animal on the West coast as the Niners rank No. 1 in total defense allowing just 281 YPG and are 7-2 ATS last nine home games and Fins 0-3-1 ATS against teams with winning home records. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

Denver at New Orleans 3:30 ET Nuggets (+) over Pelicans- Now, here’s a good one...New Orleans is the division leader in the Southwest and it has surely been the impact of Zion Williamson that has made the difference in this years club. The Pelicans have won eight of their last 10 and the last three were without leading scorer Brandon Ingram and he is day-to-day. Nuggets had won four straight before a Friday defeat at Atlanta and will rebound here wit the line being to clue. Take DENVER! |

12-04-22 | Jets +3 v. Vikings | 22-27 | Loss | -114 | 21 h 13 m | Show | |
New York Jets at Minnesota 1:00 ET Jets (+) over Vikings- Believe it or not but Minnesota can clinch the NFC North with a win here and a Jacksonville win at Detroit. Seems silly at this point of the season but the division is that weak. That won’t matter here as the Vikings will have to wait a week at least. New York has found the magic elixir and his name is Mike White who has replaced Zach Wilson leading the Jets to a season high 466 yards of offense against the Bears last week. The club has responded to the change and now believe that with their defense (Ranked No. 5) they can make the playoffs and cause some damage. Like what they do against the Vikings. Take the NEW YORK J-E-T-S! |

12-04-22 | Titans v. Eagles -4 | 10-35 | Win | 100 | 21 h 4 m | Show | |
Tennessee at Philadelphia 1:00 ET Eagles (-) over Titans- I am a bit surprised at what I am seeing surrounding this game as I expected people to gravitate to the high flying eagles especially after them beating the packers without much difficulty and the Titans falling tat home to Cincinnati. Philadelphia has incentive as a win clinches the division along the best record currently in the NFC. Tennessee is have problems in the red-zone as their one sided offense meets resistance closer to the goal. Eagles No. 2 on defense allowing just 304 YPG and are No. 4 on offense averaging 382 YPG. The home team is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings and the beat goes on...take PHILADELPHIA! |

12-04-22 | Jaguars +1 v. Lions | Top | 14-40 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 49 m | Show |
Jacksonville at Detroit 1:00 ET Jaguars (+) over Lions- Here I am thinking that Detroit is that hot team and now the book-makers do this. What you ask? Well, the Lions and Jaguars have the same record (4-7) and the Lions had won three straight until Thanksgiving against the Bills but have covered four in-a-row while Jacksonville is off their thrilling come-from-behind win over the Ravens winning for only the 2nd time in their last eight games. I though I saw something in the Jags last week that make me believe that they are getting better and by the looks of this line so do the odds-makers. Take JACKSONVILLE! |

Michigan at Kentucky 1:00 ET Wildcats (-) over Wolverines- These two once proud basketball schools no longer dominate the top of the polls. Kentucky (5-2) have beat up on five double-digit wins against inferior competition and have lost against power schools Michigan State and Gonzaga. Michigan State (5-2) have dropped out of the ranking after bowing to Virginia and Arizona State and even struggled with Ohio. The price is high if you are to lay-it and you’ll be right. Take KENTUCKY! |

Portland at Utah 9:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Jazz- After a quite start to the season Portland has dropped three straight and 7-of-8 and their swoon can be attributed to Damian Lillard’s absence as he has missed the last six games and will also be out tonight. Utah has won their last two games after losing five straight. Blazers 9-4 ATS in their last 13 road games and get the money here. Take PORTLAND! |

Mountaineers coach Bob Huggins has had plenty of experience against Xavier going 8-8 in the ‘Crosstown Shootout’ when coaching Cincinnati who he led to a Final Four. Mountain-boys have four in double-digits and enough talent with good coaching t win here. take WEST VIRGINIA! |

12-03-22 | Clemson -7.5 v. North Carolina | 39-10 | Win | 100 | 32 h 34 m | Show | |
Clemson vs North Carolina 8:00 ET Tar Heels over Tigers- How could they, how could they make this Clemson team more than a TD favorite here. Come-on, their quarterback is atrocious and is getting worse every week. Once thought to be a potential super star this guy should be sitting the bench. Now, how bad is their back-up at QB that Dabo doesn’t make a change. Letting this kid play is a firer-able offense (never Happen). North Carolina has been a major disappointment for the second straight year and they are so tempting because of and offense that averages close to 500 YPG. I guess the issue is that they allow about 450 YPG. But, this is the ACC Championship game and it is December when the Tigers are 15-2 ATS in their last 17 games and they are 20-7 ATS at neutral sites. Add that the favorite is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings. Tar Heels are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games at neutral sites. Take CLEMSON! |

12-03-22 | Purdue +17 v. Michigan | 22-43 | Loss | -110 | 32 h 33 m | Show | |
Purdue vs Michigan 8:00 ET Wolverines (-) over Boilermakers- Michigan was the most impressive of all contenders last Saturday just waylaying out the Buckeyes. The question here is can they keep their intensity for the Big Ten Championship game. Purdue has a future pro at quarterback with Adian O’Connell who has thrown for over 3,000 yards and has 22 TD’s but has been hampered by injuries this season. The Wolves have the second best defense in the country allowing just 262.3 YPG and just 83 yards rushing. Purdue did good the get here and it was mostly the schedule and defense ranking No. 34 allowing just 347 YPG. Wolves 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Take PURDUE! |

Wichita State at Kansas State 9:00 ET Shockers (+) over Wildcats- That was quite a performance by the Shockers last time out hosting Missouri they went overtime before falling 88-84. But, the thing to note is that the tigers shot 54.1% from the floor and made 12 3-pointers, but the committed 20 turnovers and missed 8-of-14 free throws. How does a team make 12 3-pointers and not make FT’s? Kansas State suffered their first loss to Butler in Indianapolis and are 1-4 ATS after a SU loss. Take WICHITA STATE! |

Central Florida at Tulane 4:00 ET Knights (+) over Green Wave- Win or lose I’m pretty sure of one thing and that this will be an exciting game with a pair of clubs that score just a hair under 35-point per game. This is a rematch of a the regular season game at Tulane which Central Florida won 38-31 in a game where they had a 17-point lead late in the third quarter and the game wasn’t as close as the final might make you believe. The Knights ran for 336 yards and dominated time of possession 35-23. Tulane is 43-21-2 ATS at home but the dog in this series has won the last four. Take CENTRAL FLORIDA! |

Ain’t we got fun...Indiana pops into the Top-10 for the first time in over five years after defeating an over-ratted North Carolina clubs that has now dropped three in-a-row. This is a perfect spot to ambush the 7-0 Hoosiers who are playing their first true road game and they are 8-20-2 ATS in their last 30 road games after three straight at home. And get this the Scarlet Knights are 10-4-1 ATS in their last 15 home games against teams with winning records, add that the home team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings. Take RUTGERS! |
