10* Toronto -1.5 runs

3,3,0,0 and 2 are the runs given up by Gausman. Wainwright is tough for STL but they are without key players without vaccines. I think we see a win by 2 or more on Wednesday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Toronto -1.5

STL will be without Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt due to lack of vaccine. The Blue Jays have been hot and even beat Boston 28-5 last week.

Toronto 5

ST Louis 3

Thanks and GL.

10* NYL +8.5

CT may be without Jones. NYL has played well lately led by superstar guard Sabrina Ionescu.

Thanks and GL on Tuesday!

10* Washington -4.5

Minnesota has been playing plenty of games recently and had some travel issues while Washington is off a loss and should bounce back.

Thanks and GL on Sunday.

10* Edmonton +9

I think we see Edmonton stay within 8 points on Thursday.

Thanks and GL

10* Sun -5

Sun wins by 8 or more on Sunday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Seattle -1.5

Seattle 5

Oakland 3

The A's have a starter in Martinez who is making his second start this season. The M's have played well recently and I predict a 5-3 score.

Thanks and GL.

10* NY Liberty -4.5

NY is playing better and led by Sabrina Ionescu and Howard and Dolson. I think we see a win by 8 to 10 points on Thursday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Seattle -2

The Storm is off a home loss so I expect them to bounce back. Sue Bird and Loyd played poorly last game so I expect them to join Stewart with solid games.

Thanks and GL.

10* Minnesota -1.5

I think we see the Lynx win by 5 on Tuesday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Las Vegas -8

I was hoping for a lower number but expect Las Vegas to bounce back after a loss.

LV by 8 or more.

Thanks and GL

10* NY +2.5

NY is playing better and led by Sabrina Ionescu and Howard.

Take the points and GL.

10* NYL +4.5

Liberty playing good ball led by Ionescu, Howard, Dolson and Xa Wu.

Thanks and GL.

10* Atlanta -1.5 

Braves 7

Nationals 5

Thanks and GL.

10* Boston +4

Most books have this as +3.5 but there are some +4's out there. I expect Boston to play well after losing by 10 at home. Boston was able to win game one at Golden State. Smart, Brown and Tatum should play better.

Thanks and GL.

10* NY Liberty +7

NY is 3-1 in its last 4 as Sabrina Ionescu has played well. Dolson and Howard are scoring inside. I think we see NY stay within 7 on Sunday.

Thanks and GL.

10* GS +4

I think Golden State bounces back and covers in Game 4 behind Curry, Thompson and Green and Poole.

Take the points as the Warriors make the proper adjustments on Friday night.

Thanks and GL.

10* Golden State -4

GS jumped ahead early but was outscored 40-16 in the 4th quarter. I expect adjustments with Curry, Thompson and Poole scoring and solid defense from Green and Looney inside.

GS can't go down 2-0 at home and expect to win.

Thanks and GL.

10* Dallas +7

Seattle has two players out while Dallas is at full strength and playing well on the road.

Thanks and GL.

10* Ct Sun +4.5

These two played earlier in the week. I expect the Sun to stay close. I do wish I was getting more points but +4.5 it is.

Thanks and GL.

10* Boston -8.5

The Celtics can wrap up the eastern title with a win. I think we see Boston win by 10 or more on Friday night.

Thanks and GL!

10* GS -7.5

I think we see Golden State win by 10 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* Boston -7

I think we see Boston bounce back at home and win by 10 or more as they are down 2 games to one. I expect Jayson Tatum and Brown to lead the way. 

Thanks and GL!

10* Dallas +6.5

I expect Luka to play well and force Dallas to bounce back in game two.

Thanks and GL.

10* Indiana +16

Going with +16 as this is the largest spread of the year. Hopefully they stay within 15.

Thanks and GL.

10* Minnesota +11.5

I think the spread is too high. Cheryl Reeve of Minnesota is one of the best in the WNBA. I think we see LV win by 7 to 10.

Take the points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Boston +3.5

I think we see Tatum and Marcus Smart play well. Boston may end up winning but take the points.

Thanks and GL!

10* GS -4.5

Most have it at -5 but -4.5 is out there. Dallas is off a tough 7 game series but did have an easy win in Game 7. Now they face the Warriors with 3 future Hall of Famers. GS wins by 6 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* Phil 76ers -2

The 76ers are off a blowout loss on the road and down 3-2 in games but Have won the two home games easily. I think the crowd helps Joel Embiid and company win and cover.

10* Seattle -6

Sue Bird and Brianna Stewart lead the way for the Storm. They won the title a few years ago and will be excited to open with a home win vs. a Lynx team that is middle of the pack.

Thanks and GL!

10* Golden State -8.5

Golden State is up 3-1 and looking to end the series with Denver. Denver's Jokic has been great and helped the Nuggets win game four. The Warriors were able to win game one by 20 and game two by 16. Jordan Poole has been the wild card for Golden State and adding firepower.

I think we see a win by 10 or more.

Thanks and GL!

10* Tampa Bay -1.5 goals

Tampa Bay has won 4 of 5. The wins were 8-4, 6-2, 8-1 and 7-4. Columbus has some injuries and is not good on defense. I think we see Tampa Bay win by 2 goals.

Tampa Bay 4

Columbus 2

Thanks and good luck!

10* Milwaukee -4

The Bucks played well in their Game Three win as Yoennis played well as expected but others stepped up, including Grayson Allen. The Bucks should be fresh as they won by 20 in Chicago and have a history of playing well there. I hope the loss of Kris Middleton doesn't bite the Bucks in this game but I like Milwaukee to win and cover.

Thanks and GL!

10* Bucks -2.5

The Bucks are off a loss at home. They will be without Middleton but won at Chicago in the last meeting by 21 points. I think they will be motivated off the loss and still have one of the top three players in the NBA in Yoennis. 

I think we see the Bucks win and cover.

Thanks and GL.

10* Villanova +4.5

This team shoots over 82% FT's, #1 all time and are well coached by Jay Wright, who has won 2 national titles. They are a team full of seniors and juniors and play a slow style. Take the points as I see some +4.5's.

Thanks and GL!

10* St Peters +8.5

This team has won 10 in a row and is confident. UNC may win by 4 to 7 but not cover a team that is off wins vs. Ky and Purdue.

Thanks and GL.

10* TT -1

Texas Tech plays solid defense and did make 12 of 20 3's in their opener. Duke was down 5 late to an average Michigan State team but came back to win. They are not deep and will be under plenty of pressure to keep winning for Coach K, however the Blue devils are led by young players like freshman Paulo Banchero. 

I expect a close one with TT winning.

Thanks and GL!

10* BYU -3

BYU has played the first two games at home and won by 20 in each one. Washington State played on the road and won at SMU and must travel again. I think we see BYU win by 6.

Thanks and GL.

10* Michigan State +6.5

MSU is well coached Big Ten team that has key seniors in Gabe Brown and Joe Hauser. Hoggard is a solid guard. They have beaten good teams and stayed close to others such as a recent 5 point loss to Purdue. I think there will be lots of pressure on Duke with Coach K retiring.

Tom Izzo is a good coach and just beat a nice Davidson team.

Thanks and GL.

10* WF -5

Wake Forest won their opener by 10. They only lost one game at home and that was to Miami, Florida. They are a team with juniors and seniors that can make a statement after losing early in the ACC Tournament. Alondis Williams and LaRavia were solid scorers for WF. VCU is a tough team but lost by 10 to Richmond.

I like WF to win and cover on Saturday.

10* UNC +6

Most books have it at +5.5 but a few +6 are out there. The game is being played in Texas which should favor Baylor. Brady Manek played well for UNC and he starred at Oklahoma and knows the Bears well. UNC will need for Caleb Love to make some key shot as well as Bacot inside and RJ Davis too. 

Baylor won the title last year but did suffer a key injury last month.

Take and points and GL!

10* Michigan State pick'em

This should be a great game. Davidson is close to Greenville, SC and should have many fans but MSU played in the rugged Big Ten and under coach Tom Izzo should be able to wear down the Wildcats and win a close one.

Thanks and GL.

10* UNC -2.5

UNC lost to Marquette last year at the Dean Dome and will look for revenge. Garcia Dawson played at Marquette last year and transferred to UNC but left after health problems in his family. 

I expect UNC to bounce back after a bad game vs. Va Tech. Shaka Smart is a solid coach for the underdogs but UNC lost to Wisconsin by 20+ last year with many of these same players and should find a way to get the ball inside to Bacot and win by 5 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* Towson +8

I think this game means more to Towson going vs. an ACC team. The crowd should be small and Towson is all juniors and seniors and were 10-2 down the stretch.

Thanks and GL!

10* Texas A&M

Buzz Williams has the Aggies of A&M playing well. I think we see a close one. Tennessee did beat them by 10 earlier but I think the underdogs stay within 6 on Sunday.

Thanks and GL.

10* Kansas -2

Kansas is playing well. Texas Tech has been a surprise with a new coach.

I see Kansas winning by 5.

Thanks and GL.

10* OSU +9.5

Oregon will be without their top player in Richardson. OSU made a nice run last year and won the conference as 40 to 1 underdogs. They are solid in neutral court games. These two are state rivals and Oregon State only lost by 2 at home. Take the points and GL.

10* FSU pick'em

Syracuse has found ways to lose at home and on the road. They are not athletic and FSU is. The Seminoles have struggled with injuries but I think they find a way to win even though the Orange may have more fans as this is held in Brooklyn.

Thanks and GL.

10* Syracuse -1.5

Syracuse is off a game at UNC that they led most of the time but lost in OT. Before that they lost at home to Duke. We get Senior Day at the Carrier Dome. I expect Buddy Boeheim to play well and Cole Swider as well. Miami is a long way from home and had a nice season but I like the Orange.

Thanks and GL.

10* Kansas -11.5

Kansas is off two road losses and just faced TCU on the road and lost by 10. TCU has lost their last 3 on the road. Kansas beat Baylor at home by over 20 and I think they get revenge and win by 15 or so and cover on Thursday.

Thanks and GL!

5* Notre Dame -1.5

FSU is off a miracle win at Virginia after being down late in the game. They have several key injuries while Notre Dame is a team with a nice mixture of seniors and juniors and well coached by Mike Brey. The Irish win by 5 or more.

Thanks and GL!

*most books have this at -2 but there are a few -1.5's.

10* Michigan +1

Michigan will be coached by Phil Martelli with Howard being out. Illinois lost at Rutgers by 11, lost at Md by 16 and lost by 16 at Purdue. Illinois will probably win if Kofi Cockburn plays well but I think Hunter Dickinson plays solid for the home team.

Michigan played well vs. Rutgers and needs to keep the momentum going to make the tourney. The Wolverines didn't do that earlier vs. Ohio State.

I hope to see Michigan get energy from the crowd and win outright.

Thanks and GL.

10* Gonzaga -10.5

This should be a good game. St Mary's plays solid defense but just played two games in their conference where they won by about 6 points. I think Drew Timme and Chet Holmgren are more ready for playing in a big game and we see Gonzaga win by 15.

Thanks and GL!

10* UNC -4

UNC won earlier by 20. They lost at NCSU last year so they will be focused. UNC won at Ga Tech, BC, Louisville, Clemson and Va Tech so they can win on the road.

Bacot was able to score inside since NCSU's Manny Bates was injured early this year. NCSU is 5-15 in their last 20 and just lost at home by 8 to BC.

UNC is on the bubble and needs a big win.

10* Harvard +8.5

Princeton is at home and has a solid record. Harvard has key players who are seniors and juniors and they are well coached by former Duke player Tommy Amaker.

Harvard does have a few players who are missing and probably the reason this line is +8.5 but I think we see a game with the home court Tigers winning by 6.

Thanks and GL.

10* Oregon +3.5

Oregon is off a 3 point loss at Arizona. They are a team of juniors and seniors led by Will Richardson. They won at UCLA earlier. Kenpom.com has UCLA by 6 but we know how tough the Ducks can be at home. I expect a close game and would love more points. Hopefully, Oregon can win but take the points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Radford +9.5

Radford is a team full of juniors and seniors that has won 3 in a row and played Longwood in an overtime game earlier. They beat Longwood twice last year, although both were at home. Many of Longwood's wins have been by 5 to 8 points. Take the points.

Thanks and GL!

10* Louisville +10.5

UNC just played at VT and won outright. They played Louisville earlier and won in OT. The VT game was Saturday so UNC won't have much time to prepare and may have a letdown after a big win. UNC did lost to Pitt in their last home game and also lost to Duke by 20 at home. I expect a Tar Heel win by 6 to 9 points.

10* Ky -6.5

I expect Kentucky to bounce back after a double digit loss at Tennessee. I expect Oscar to have a solid game and for the Wildcats to win by 10.

Thanks and GL!

10* VCU -3

These two are both located in Richmond, Va. I think we see the home team win by 5 or more on Friday night.

10* Buffalo -9

Buffalo won by 20 at home vs. EMU. Buffalo is off a game where they scored 112. EMU is off two 20 point losses at home. Buffalo wins by 15.

Thanks and GL.

This game is 12noon.

10* Ky +2

Ky beat them by over 20 points at home and scored 100+ in doing so. Tenn is solid and hasn't lost at home but Ky beat them the last two times in Knoxville. Take the points and GL.

10* Virginia +5.5

These two rivals play Monday and the total is set at 120 so they are expecting a low score. Both have played well. UVA started poorly with a loss to Navy but has played well lately. I like taking +5.5 in this game.

Thanks and GL.

10* Cincy +4.5

We have seen some close games so far in the playoffs. Stafford has been inconsistent all year. Cincy has solid weapons with Joe Burrow, Chase and their FG kicker.

Take the points.

10* Michigan -2

Michigan is off a 20+ win at home vs. Purdue. They are hoping to get a berth in the NCAAT under Juwann Howard and need a big win. They are at home and face a solid OSU team.

Michigan wins by 7.

Thanks and GL.

10* Georgia +14.5

Georgia is coached by Tom Crean. They only lost by 7 at Florida last year. I think they can stay within 9 to 12 points on Wednesday in SEC action.

Thanks and GL.

10* Arkansas +2.5

Arkansas has won 8 in a row while Auburn has won their last two road games by 2 and 1 point. Take the points with the Razorbacks at home.

Thanks and GL.

10* ND +5.5

Notre Dame is 10-0 at home and Duke may be looking ahead to playing UNC on Saturday. ND is full of juniors and seniors. Take the points!

10* SF +3.5

I like the 49ers to stay within a field goal. Getting +3.5 in nice as I think one team will win by 3. The SF running game and defense are solid and Jimmy G can amke enough plays.

Thanks and GL on Sunday!

10* Cincy +7.5

I like KC to win but think we see the Bengals stay within 7.

Thanks and GL.

10* Ky -9.5

I like Ky to win big at home off a road loss at Auburn. The Wildcats beat Tennessee by 30 in their last home game. 

Take Ky to cover as I think they win by 10 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* UNC -5.5

I hoped for -4 or so but UNC is off two road losses that were blowouts but return home, where they have not lost. They beat VT by 8 in the ACC Tournament last year.

VT is playing their third straight road game. UNC by 8.

Thanks and GL.

10* Tampa Bay -3

The Super Bowl champions are -3 at home vs. the Rams, who are off a big home win vs. the Cards. You have to favor Brady over Matthew Stafford. 

I think we see Tampa Bay win by 3 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* AZ +4

I think we see AZ stays within 3 points on Monday night.

Hopefully we see QB Murray play well.

Thanks and GL.

10* TB -8.5

Most have it at -9 or so. I like Brady at home with their defense and coach Ariens. The Eagles played in the weak NFC East and gavre up 51 at Dallas.

Take Tampa Bay and GL!

10* NE +4

I like NE +4 as coach Belichick has more experience and won at Buffalo earlier. Josh Allen has been great with passing and running but Mac Jones had a nice year too. 

Take the +4.

10* ODU -4

ODU is 8-9 trying for a .500 record. They won their last home game by 20 points and face a team from halfway across the USA. ODU is known for defense and rebounding under Jeff Jones.

ODU wins by 8.

Thanks and good luck!

10* Alabama +3

Nick Saban always seems to beat his former assistants (except for Jimbo Fisher one time). Bama ran the ball well vs. Cicy and only allowed 6 points and they beat Georgia by 2 TD's in the first meeting.

Take the 3 points.

Wisc +12.5

Teams like Purdue could be off a little after New Years and Christmas. Johnny Davis is a solid scorer for Wisky and they only lost by single digits last year vs. Purdue. Badgers off an OT win vs. a weak team. They did lose badly at Ohio State but I think they stay within 10.

10* WFT +5

WFT is at home and out of the playoffs but have a chance for pride after poor losses and a bad loss at Philly recently. The Eagles have not beated a team over .500 this year. I expect WFT to stay within 4 so good luck and thanks for going with Red Dog Sports!

10* Michigan +7.5

Georgia may have a letdown after a bad loss to Alabama. Michigan should have confidence after a big win vs. Ohio State and BLOWOUT of Iowa.

Take the points and GL.

10* Michigan State -2.5

Pitt will be without QB Kenny Pickett and played in the weak ACC as teams have struggled to win bowl games the past two years. MSU has a better defense and solid running game.

All we need is for MSU to win by 3 or more.

Thanks and GL.

10* USC +9.5

Shane Beamer's team is from the SEC and should be able to stay within 9 of UNC. The Tar Heels will have Sam Howell at QB but are average in skill positions and defense under Mack Brown.

Thanks and GL.

10* Georgia State -5.5

I like the solid running game of Ga State to play well vs. the weak defense of Ball State. The MAC has not done well so far,

Ga State wins by 7 to 10.

10* CFU +7

Florida is the SEC team that is favored but CFU will be motivated playing a state school that has won national titles. CFU coach Gus Malzahn has knowledge pf the SEC and should help CFU stay close.

Thanks and GL.

10* ODU +9.5

ODU has been hot as they started 1-5 and ended 6-6. They just scored 50+. Tulsa ended 6-6 but most of their recent wins were close. They did lose to Navy by 3.

Tulsa may win but I like ODU to cover.

Thanks and GL.

10* ODU +11.5

These two are based in Virginia connected by I-64. ODU plays solid defense and rebounds well under coach Jeff Jones. I do think we see the Spiders win by 5 to 10 but take the points on Sunday afternoon.

Thanks and GL.

10* EMU +10

I like the underdog in this game as Liberty struggled down the stretch. Hopefully Eastern Michigan can stay within 10.

Thanks and GL.

10* SC State +37.5

Duke is off a loss but they haven't played in 2 weeks. SC State is off two wins and a loss in OT. I think they can stay within 32 to 34.

Thanks and GL.

10* Winnipeg -1

I think we see Winnipeg win by 4 points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Washington +5

I like the WFT getting 5 points at home. Their defense has been solid so has the running game with Gibson and QB play with Taylor Heinicke. Dallas may win but take the points.

Thanks and GL.

10* Brown -1

Brown stayed within 7 at UNC and scored 87. They beat Merrimack 82-55 two years ago.

Thanks and GL.

10* Pitt -3

Pitt has a better defense and their QB makes less mistakes.

Pitt wins by 7 to 10.

Thanks and GL.

10* Alabama +6.5

Georgia has faced Clemson to open the season and did not face another solid team after that. Alabama has Nick Saban on his side and a nice game by Bryce Young and he wins the Heisman Trophy and Bama is in the playoff along with SEC's Georgia.

Take the points.

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!
