10* Iowa pick'em

UVA is at home but has lost by 10 to Navy at home and by 20 to Houston. Iowa should make some 3's and win a close one.

Thanks and GL.

10* Gonzaga -7.5

I think we see Gonzaga win by 10 or more as Drew Timme has experience inside and Holmgren can score as well as block shots.

Thanks and GL.

10* EMU +9

I think we see CMU win by 4 to 7 points on Friday. Take the points and GL.

10* Miss St -1

I like Miss State to win by 5 points in this game being played on a neutral floor.

Thanks and GL!

10* Cincy +10.5

I hoped for 12 but this game is set at a neutral floor. Take the points with Wes Miller's team.

Thanks and GL.

10* North Texas -9.5

Most have this at -10 but there are some below that. I think we see North Texas win by 14 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* C of C +12.5

UNC has struggled on defense as they allowed 50 at the half by Brown. The Tar Heels are on the road and face the team that coached at Winthrop the last few years.

I like C of C to stay within 10 to 12 and cover.

Thanks and GL.

10* Buffalo -12.5

I think Buffalo bounces back with a 14 point win after a bad loss at Jax last week.

This is a division game.

Thanks and GL.

10* Gonzaga -7

The Zags win by 10.

Thanks and GL.

10* ECU +5.5

ECU has won two in a row. I think we see the Pirates stay close and keep it within 4.

Thanks and GL.

10* Bears +7

The Steelers seem to play down to their opponent. I think the Bears lose but stay within 4 to 6 points on Monday night.

Thanks and GL.

10* Titans +7.5

I think we see Tennessee stay within 7 without Henry. They will be motivated and Tanneyhill and the defense are solid.

Thanks and GL.

10* Temple +16

ECU is off a nice win on Thursday night, a comeback win at home and now faces Temple. I think ECU wins by 12 to 14.

10* Boston -2

Chicago takes to the road to face Boston.

Boston 108

Chicago 103

Thanks and GL.

10* NE +4.5

I think we see NE stay within a touchdown of LA. 

LA 24

NE 21

Thanks and GL.

10* Atlanta -3

Matt Ryan has 9 TD's and just one int in the last few weeks. Carolina started 3-0 but struggled with Darnold  at QB and McCaffrey injured.

Falcons by 10.

10* Seattle +5

Seattle at home is solid. I think we see a 3 point win with either Geno Smith or Wilson at QB.

Take the +5 and good luck!

10* SD State +3

SDSU has won 8 in a row vs. Air Force and used to their running game. We get the #1 running team vs. the #1 running defense. Take the +3 and GL.

10* Tennessee +6

The Bills just won at KC and have to travel to Tennessee to face the solid defense and running game of Derrick Henry.

I like Buffalo to win but take the +6.

10* Navy +10.5

Memphis has played lots of close games. I think Memphis wins but only by 6 to 10 points.

Take the +10.5.

10* Seattle +2.5

I would like to get +3 but like Seattle to continue to play well vs. SF.

Russell Wilson is a future Hall Of Famer.

Thanks and GL.

10* Duke +18

These two are rivals just 8 miles apart. Duke has just one loss. I expect UNC to win by 10 to 14.

Thanks and GL.

10* NCSU +10

The Wolfpack is home and Clemson is playing their first true road game.

I think Clemson wins by 7 so take the 10 points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Alabama -14

The Tide keep on rolling with Bryce Young at QB and Nick Saban at coach.

Alabama by 17 or more in their SEC opener.

Thanks and GL.

10* CFU -6.5

CFU fell behind 14-0 to Boise St 14-0 but still won 36-31. Gabriel is a solid QB and they outgained Boise by 200 yards.

CFU wins by 10 to 14.

10* WFT +1

Most books have this even. Washington is the home team with a better defense and a coach with more experience. Take the WFT to win on Sunday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Ct -3.5

I like Connecticut to win by 6. One team is a threat to win the title and one is a pretender.

Thanks and GL

10* Liberty -4

Liberty has been solid at covering. They are well coached by Hugh Freeze (65-35 ATS) and have a good QB who can run and pass.

Liberty by 7. 

Thanks and GL.

10* LA +10

The line has moved to +10 and I think LA stays within 8 on Thursday night.

Thanks and GL.

10* Dallas +8

I like the underdogs getting more than a TD in the opening game on Thursday night.

Thanks and GL!

10* Rice +19.5

Rice is 7-3 ATS in their last 10. Won their last road game 20-0. I think we see an Arkansas win by 10 to 14 points. Take the underdog.

Thanks and GL!

10* FSU +20.5

Fresno St has already played a game while Oregon will be playing this game with an early local start. I like the underdog!

10* ECU +10.5

This game will be played on a neutral field in Charlotte. QB Holton Ahlers can run and pass and is a junior. Coach Mike Houston has been at ECU for a few years. I think App State wins but like ECU plus the points on Thursday.

Thanks and good luck!

10* CWS -1.5

Giolitto has been a great pitcher. I think we see a 6-3 win by the home team.

CWS 6

Pitt 3

Thanks and GL!

10* Chicago +6

This was +7.5 and I like that better. Chicago just beat them on Friday. Candace Park, Deshields and Vandersloot are solid and they should be better than 13-12.

Seattle won the title last year and is a favorite this year but I like the Sky getting 6.

Thanks and GL.

10* Washington -3

Della Donne has played well lately. Washington will be at home and I like them to win by 5 or more on Thursday.

Thanks and GL!

10* LAA -1.5

The Orioles continue to struggle. We were on LA yesterday at -129 and they won 14-8. Ohtani is a little overrated but I think the Angels win by 2 or more.

LAA 6

Orioles 3

Thanks and GL.

10* Reds -1.5

The Reds lost 2-1 yesterday and I expect them to bounce back and win 6-3 on Wednesday. 

Thanks and GL.

10* Toronto -1.5

Toronto 5

Washington 3

The Blue Jays are trying to stay in the race. There pitcher has allowed just 4 runs in his last 2 starts.

Thanks and GL.

10* Reds -1.5

Wade Miley is 6-2 with a 3 ERA at home. The Cubs have played poorly with an ERA of 7 since trading key players.

Reds 6

Cubs 3

Thanks and GL.

10* Washington +11.5

The second half of the season starts today and the Mystics should push to make the playoffs. LV is good but only beat them by 3 earlier. Take the points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Suns +4.5

I like Phoenix to stay within 4 after losing badly in game 3. The Bucks were down 2-0 in games and heading home and Yoennis played great as Ayton had foul problems.

I expect Devon Booker to play well and the Suns to cover.

Thanks and GL.

10* LA +15

These two just played and it ended with a 10 point difference. I think we see a 10 to 14 point game on Wednesday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Fever +15

Indian is bad but they are at home and just lost by only 6 (86-80) to this team.

Take the +15 in an early start at 1pm.

10* Indiana +11

I think we see the underdogs stay within 10 points tonight.

Thanks and good luck!

10* Mavs +6.5

The visitors have won all 6 games so far. Luke Doncic will be needed to play great and get help from Porzingas, Hardaway and Finney-Smith. LA should win the game but I expect a close one within 6.

10* Brooklyn -4

The big three will play for the Nets and I expect Durant to make key plays and for the home team to win by 6 or more. Hopefully we don't see the Greek Freak have a super game.

Thanks and GL.

10* LAC -2.5

The series has been won by the visitors in all 5 games so far. I expect Paul George and Leonard to step up and play better defense vs. Luka Doncic.

LA by 7.

10* LA -2

I think LA will find a way to win at home and after the embarrassing loss in Game 5. Lebron James should lead his team to a win whether or not Anthony Davis plays or not.

10* Dallas +1.5

Dallas won by 20+ at LA earlier. LA has some injury issues and no longer has Candace Parker from previous years.

Thanks and GL.

10* LAC -5

The Clippers lost their last two games but should be set for the playoffs and we saw LA win big vs. Dallas last year when they played in the playoffs as LA scored 154 one game.

I like LA to win by 8 to 10.

10* SA +4.5

I was hoping to get 5 but +4.5 is it.

SA is 5-1 in its last 6 and lost by 20 to Miami in that one loss. DeRosen has played well lately for the Spurs. Both teams are 2 games over .500.

Take the points and GL.

10* Baylor +4.5

I like Baylor's juniors/seniors to play well. Jared Butler and Mayer can score and play defense and rebound to stay within 4.

10* Houston +5

I like Houston to stay within 5 when they meet on Saturday.Both are from the state of Texas and used to be members of the old Southwest Conference.

Take the points.

Thanks and good luck.

10* USC +9

USC's Andy Enfield is 9-0 ATS in the NCAA tourney with Fla Gulf Coast and USC. The Mobleys have played well and so has the Pac 12. Gonzaga is 29-0 and only one game (West Va) was under 10. Take the points.

10* Creighton +13.5

The Blue Jays are will coached under Doug McDermott and are full of juniors and seniors. They had 5 guys score double figures in their last game and have played Gonzaga in recent years and will be prepared for Mark Few's system.

I like the Zags to win but take the points getting +13.5.

10* Syracuse +6.5

The Orange are playing well with Boeheim, Doleazag, Giren, et al. Coach Boeheim has his team playing solid zone defense and led by seniors and juniors. Houston may win but take the points.

Thanks and good luck.

10* Phoenix -9.5

The Suns are one of the best NBA teams and just beat Miami while Orlando has been travelling up and down the coast. The Suns are 67% ATS and win another one tonight.

10* Ohio +6

Vander Plas and Preston are a solid inside/outside duo for Ohio. They have won 10 of 11 while Creighton beat UCSB by just one and are 4-3 in its last 7.

Take the points.

10* OR +8.5

Oral Roberts can stay within 8 of Florida. The Gators beat Va Tech in OT and are well coached by Mike White and have 2nd team all-SEC Castellon inside but Oral Roberts is on a roll and lost some close games this year. Fla is just 2-4 in its last 6 and one win was close vs. Vandy.

Take the points.

10* EW +11

EW has won 11 of 12 and had some close losses vs. good teams. They have 5 players scoring between 10 and 15 ppg.

Take the points!

10* Mich State -2

UCLA travels to Indiana to play Mich State in a venue that the Spartans will be familiar with. MSU has struggled in recent games with Maryland (regular season and tourney) but now play the team that has won the most national titles. 

Tom Izzo should have his team ready and they are a solid defensive team that beat Michigan and  Illinois this year.

MSU by 6.

10* Utah -6.5

Utah should be excited to play Golden State when they are down. Mitchell, Mike Conley Jr and the Jazz big center (Rudy!) should play well. I think we see a 10 point road win on Sunday.

Utah by 10.

Thanks and GL

10* UVA -5

UVA should play solid defense on Boeheim. They beat the Orange by 23 earlier. I expect Hauser, Clark and Huff to play well and Virginia to win by 8 to 10.

10* Mich St +1.5

I think Mich State bounces back from a loss at Maryland about a week ago. They have beaten Michigan, ILL and Ohio State and usually play well late in the year under Tom Izzo. Spartans win outright.

10* Michigan State +12.5

I had hoped to get more points that 12 or 12.5. Michigan is off a bad loss to top 5 ranked Illinois but MSU is 4-1 in its last 5 and should be motivated vs. their rival.

Thanks and good luck!

10* Villanova -5

Nova is off a loss at Butler by double digits. They lost at Creighton earlier and it wasn't close. I think Jay Wright rights the ship and Villanova wins by 8.

10* Milwaukee -7

Milwaukee has played well lately and beat the LA Clippers in their last game. I think the Bucks win by 10 and cover on Tuesday.

MIlw 115

Denver 105

Thanks and GL

10* Mich St -2.5

MSU is off a bad road loss at Maryland. They sit at 14-9 and on the bubble to make the Big Dance. Tom Izzo's team won at Indiana by 7 earlier. I think they bounce back with a solid home win and cover the spread against Archie Miller's team.

10* HP +13

These two just played twice at High Point and the games were decided by 6 and 8. Winthrop is 20-1 while HP is below .500 but won their opener. HP has one strong scorer who will be needed to put up 20+ points.

I think Tubby Smith's High Point team stays within 10 on Monday.

Thanks and GL!

10* Mich St +3

Tom Izzo has his team playing better on defense as well as offense. Maryland is playing well too and at home but Mich State needs wins to get into the Big Dance. 

Take the points.

10* Ky -2.5

Kentucky has been playing well lately. They won at Florida earlier by double digits.

They are a young team that has learned to play together.

Ky wins by 7.

Thanks and good luck!

10* St Louis -4.5

St Louis is 11-5 and off two road losses. They are 10-1 at home and beat the Spiders by 16 last year. Richmond lost at VCU by 12. I think the Billikens win by 8 and cover on Friday night.

Thanks and good luck!

10* Michigan -4

Michigan has just one loss. They have a nice mixture of seniors (Livers, Smith) and young players like Hunter Dickenson to go with Wagner's inside/outside game.

Iowa has lost several games and does have Luke Garza inside and solid  3-point shooters but I like the defense of Michigan to win and cover on Thursday.

Thanks and good luck!

10* Iowa -10

Penn State just gave up 92 to Ohio State at home and faces #3 (KenPom rankings) at Iowa. Iowa just won at Wisconsin by 15 and beat Mich State by 30. Luka Garza looks to win the trophy as the best college player and coach Fran McCaffrey is solid on offense and defense.

I think we see Iowa win 90-75 and hope PSU doesn't back door with with the double digit number in this Sunday meeting.

Thanks and GL.

10* UVA -1

UVA is off a bad loss at FSU. They play solid defense. They have several key players who are upperclassmen while Duke is mostly young and lack defensive skills. Duke has won their last two road games but lost at home to UNC and Notre Dame, allowing 90+ in each loss. 

Jalen Johnson has decided to opt out for the the Blue Devils.

Take Virginia -1.

10* UNC -3

I was hoping to see -1 or -2.

UNC is off a bad loss to Virginia in the ACC and on the bubble to make the NCAA Tournament. They are getting better and have not lost at home. Walker Kessler has improved and scored 9 and 10 points in the last two games.

UNC did get to play Northeastern on Wednesday and won by 20. We had the over 136 in that game. UNC has a solid inside game with Brooks, Bacot and Sharp to go with Kessler and young guards in Love, Davis and Kerwin Walton. UNC is a top 5 rebounding team but bad at making 3's and FT's.

Louisville has been off due to Covid-19 issues and beat UNC by 17 at home last year.

UNC will aim for revenge and I think the Tar Heels win by 7.

10* Michigan -10

Michigan is off a nice road win at Wisconsin. They play home after several on the road and have won home games by 24 vs. Md, by 23 vs. Wisconsin, by 25 vs. Minnesota and by 19 vs. NW. They only beat Penn State by 4.

Rutgers does concern me because they have many juniors and seniors but lost at Iowa by 13, lost at PSU by 12, lost at Mich State by 23, and lost by 12 at Ohio State. Michigan can beat you inside and out. I think they win by 14.

10* Clemson -3.5

Clemson has just one home loss and that was to Virginia. They lost to Ga Tech on the road earlier and will seek revenge. Brad Brownell's Tigers beat UNC 63-50 at home and are a solid defensive team with seniors and juniors.

GT 62

Clemson 68

Thanks and good luck!

10* OKC +12

These two just played an OT game in LA on Monday. Davis may play and that is a key reason LA is -12 but I like OKC to stay within the number.

Thanks and GL!

10* Mich St -3.5

Penn State is 7-8 and their only road win was early in the year at Va Tech. Michigan State is 9-7 and is off a 10 point home win vs. Nebraska. They also beat Rutgers by double digits at home.

Tom Izzo is a top 5 coach in college basketball and seems to get his team to play better late in the season. I would have liked to see this line at -2 or better but -3.5 is available. Hopefully the Spartans can win by 5 or more on Tuesday.

10* TB +3.5

These two played a 27-24 earlier. TB has a better defense. I think we see a solid game that is close. Most of the Brady Super Bowls have been close. Take the +3.5.

10* ODU +6

ODU features defense and rebounding. Marshall has been off due to Covid 19 protocol. These two play Friday and Saturday at ODU. I expect ODU to stay within 5.

10* Texas +6

Baylor is #2 in most polls without a loss. Texas is #11 in KenPom rankings under coach Shaka Smart and off a one point loss to Oklahoma. I expect them to bounce back with Coleman and Brown leading the way. Texas is a team with key juniors/seniors and they did beat Baylor two years ago at home and lost in OT at Baylor.

I think we see a close win by Baylor so take the points.

10* Syracuse -6.5

NCSU will be without their best player (Devan Daniels) due to an injury. Syracuse is off a loss to VIrginia by 23 points. In their last two home games the Orange won by 18 over Va Tech and by 26 vs. Miami. 

NCSU is off a home win vs. Wake Forest but lost previous road games to UNC by 10 and by 32 at FSU. Hopefully, we see a Syracuse win by 10 or more.

10* SFA -6

I liked -5 better. SFA is off a road loss and beat Sam Houston by 10 last year. The home team has plenty of seniors and should win by 10 to 12.

10* Pitt +3.5

Pitt is off a close loss to WF on the road and should bounce back. They beat Duke at home. They may not win but have a solid chance to cover with Justin Champagnie finding ways to score.

10* KC -3

I just think Mahomes will play and KC finds a way to win and cover at home. Buffalo has been solid but are we really sure about Josh Allen on the road in the playoffs.

KC by 7

10* Nevada -4

Wyoming won the first meeting recently as Nevada only made 4 3-pointers. I expect Nevada to bounce back under coach Steve Alford and win by 7.

Nev 71

Wyo 64

Thanks! Good luck.

10* WF +11.5

I hoped to get +12 so look out for it. WF has new players full of transfers under Steve Forbes. UNC will be at home in front of 100 fans and a young team that will be happy to win by 10 to 12 points.

UNC wins but does not cover.

10* LA -6.5

LA Clippers should play Leonard and Paul George key minutes while Indiana traded a key player last week and has been playing on the road the last few games.

LA wins by 10 to 12.

10* New Orleans -3

New Orleans won both games this year easily, one by 11 and one by 35.

I think Brees has gotten healthy and the Saints defense has been one of the five best in the NFL this year. 

Tom Brady has been great as usual but I think we see a Saints win.

TB 20

NO 27

Thanks and good luck.

10* Wisconsin -3

The Badgers lost badly at Michigan and play at Rutgers, who has lost their last 3 games. Two of those were at home. I think we see a close one with Wisconsin winning due to key outside shooting.

Wisc wins by 6.

10* Ky -1.5

Alabama may have a letdown after winning the national title in football on Monday. Ky has won 8 titles in basketball and is playing better after a poor start. They won by double digits at Florida recently,

KY wins by 6.

10* Pittsburgh -6

The Steelers have motivation after losing last week to Cleveland.

Big Ben is back for the home team.

Steelers by 7 or more.

10* Washington +9

Washington is a big home underdog in the playoffs, a rare sight in the NFL. However, they are well coached by Ron Rivera and have a solid defense led by Chase Young who can slow down TB and Tom Brady.

QB Alex Smith is sure to be the Comeback Player Of The Year and he has been solid and the passing game is decent under McKissic.

I expect Tampa Bay to win by 4 to 7 so take the points.

10* WF +14.5

This is an early game with a 12 noon start. Duke beat BC by just one in a recent game. BC is one of the weaker teams in the ACC, which has no teams to threaten the Final Four.

I see Duke winning by 10 to 12 since there will be no fans there at Cameron Indoor.

10* Louisville -4

VT plays their first true road game of the season. They have just one loss and are one of the highest ranked ACC teams. Louisville beat the Hokies by 14 last year. I think the Cardinals win by 8 to 10 on Wednesday night.

Thanks and good luck!

10* West Va -1

WV is off a loss and should be motivated vs. Oklahoma State. WV is a good rebounding team and better on defense.

WV wins by 5.

10* Michigan -8

Michigan is 8-0 and full of seniors and juniors. They beat NW by 25 last year on the road. I think we see the Wolverines win by 10 or more led by Simpson and Teske.

Thanks and good luck!
