01-20-22 | Appalachian State v. Georgia State -5.5 | 61-60 | Loss | -110 | 1 h 39 m | Show | |
Rating: 3 Units When the Panthers fell to the Mountaineers in the championship game of last year’s Sun Belt tourney as 7-point favorites, the plug was immediately pulled on a terrifi c 16-6 season. And while they fi nished the campaign with the highest win percentage of any team in the loop, it meant little with COVID lurking in the background for second-year coach Rob Lanier’s troops. Had they beat App State, and cut down the nets, they would have gone dancing. And today is their shot at revenge. The Apps enter 1-5 SUATS away this season at press time, as well as 1-7 SU and 2-6 ATS versus winning foes this campaign (check GSU record). Meanwhile, the host cats return home off a two-game road trek knowing they are 11-7 SUATS at home with revenge in this role, including 8-4 SUATS versus .500 or greater foes. With the Panthers anxious to dig their paws in, the fi nal call goes to THE CLINCHER: The host team in this series is 10-3 ATS, with Georgia State going 5-0 ATS in its last fi ve games as the host. |

While the Hoosiers are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as a home underdog and 11-4 ATS in their last 15 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600. In addition, the home team is 5-2-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings. |

01-19-22 | Pacers v. Lakers -4.5 | 111-104 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 38 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Pacers are 4-9-2 ATS in their last 15 games following a straight up loss, 7-19 ATS in their last 26 Wednesday games, and 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog. While the Lakers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. In addition, the Pacers are 0-5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Los Angeles. |

01-19-22 | Clippers v. Nuggets -7.5 | 128-130 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 11 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Clippers are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up win, 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 1 days rest, 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win, and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog. While the Nuggets are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games vs. a team with a losing road record and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss. |
|||||||
01-19-22 | Virginia -3.5 v. Pittsburgh | 66-61 | Win | 100 | 9 h 33 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Tony Bennett is one of the best coaches when it comes to preparation. His team this year is certainly not the same caliber as some of his past teams, so this year's team has to find different ways to win each game. I think Virginia's 57-56 victory over Pitt on Dec. 3 gives the Cavaliers an advantage. Take Virginia. |
|||||||
01-19-22 | Maple Leafs v. Rangers +1.5 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 48 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Yes, they're in a traditionally tough spot back home following a long road trip that took them all over the map. However, they're playing terrific hockey right now and have gone 10-5 on home ice this season, giving up just 2.3 goals per game. This will be the third meeting between these two teams this season with both previous contests being settled by just one goal. You would have to go back five meetings to find the last time Toronto defeated New York by more than a goal, that coming back in December of 2019. |

Rating: 2 Units Asheville leads the Big South with 9.4 made three-pointers per game, is first in three-point defense at 26.4 percent, first in blocked shots with 5.6 per game and third in scoring offense at 76.0 points per game. North Carolina A&T is 2-8 on the road and struggles to score overall (68.9 ppg). |
|||||||
01-19-22 | Hampton v. Radford -6.5 | 51-54 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 58 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units This in-state matchup should provide extra motivation for the home team, Radford. In a down season, the Highlanders are still capable of having potent scoring streaks. Despite going 1-7 over the last eight games, grab Radford. |
|||||||
01-18-22 | Canucks v. Predators -125 | 3-1 | Loss | -125 | 9 h 14 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Canucks are 1-4 in their last 5 games as an underdog, 1-4 in their last 5 games as a road underdog, and 2-9 in their last 11 when their opponent allows 5 goals or more in their previous game. While the Predators are 20-7 in their last 27 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation, 21-8 in their last 29 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game, and 41-16 in their last 57 vs. a team with a losing record. |

|||||||
01-17-22 | Suns v. Spurs +3.5 | 121-107 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 59 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Phoenix just ruled out Deandre Ayton and it's looking doubtful that Cameron Johnson will play. I believe the healthy Spurs can win this outright but won't turn down the +3.5. It's the second of a B2B for Phoenix, which has covered just two of its past eight in that scenario. San Antonio is 6-0 ATS in its past six games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. |
|||||||
01-17-22 | Cardinals +4 v. Rams | 11-34 | Loss | -109 | 129 h 10 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units If the Rams have a legitimate MVP candidate this season it would be WR Cooper Kupp. During the first 16 games of the season, he connected with QB Matthew Stafford 138 times, the third most in NFL history. And he led the league in receiving yards and touchdown receptions. However, in order for the Rams to move forward they need Stafford dialed in like he was when he opened the season 8-1. Since the start of Week 9, he has thrown the NFL’s second-most interceptions (11), including 4 pick-sixes. And he has never won a playoff game. Flipping the script, after a 7-0 start that had many thinking they would be the No. 1 seed in the NFC, the Cardinals finished 4-6, and in a wildcard spot. The good news is after losing defensive lineman J.J. Watt to a shoulder injury in Week 7, it appears he’s ready to return for the playoffs. His return would be most welcomed, especially given the fact that the Cardinals were 8-2 SUATS away this season. Noting the Rams’ 2-5 SUATS and 1-6 ITS (In The Stats) record this season against fellow playoff squads, as opposed to Arizona’s 5-2 SUATS and ITS marks against the same, it appears the wrong team just may be favored here today. Finally consider that playing on any .600 or greater team in the Wild Card Round of the NFL playoffs if they are seeking same-season revenge is 17-5 ATS since 1990. |
|||||||
01-17-22 | Predators v. Blues OVER 6 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 4 h 14 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Over is 4-1 in Predators last 5 games playing on 1 days rest, 4-1 in Predators last 5 vs. Western Conference, 4-1 in Predators last 5 vs. a team with a winning record, and 9-3 in Predators last 12 when their opponent allows 5 goals or more in their previous game. While the Over is 18-7-1 in Blues last 26 vs. a team with a winning % above .600. |
|||||||
01-17-22 | Wyoming +2.5 v. Nevada | 77-67 | Win | 100 | 4 h 3 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units I have this one projected as a dead even matchup. Wyoming is a strong competitor and has looked good this season. Nevada hasn't been able to get many games in do to Covid, but they're on a five game slide against the spread. The last time they covered it was November 30th. Wyoming has upset their Mountain West foe in three straight meetings, and I think theres a chance they do it again today. This is a solid team, grab the extra points. |
|||||||
01-17-22 | Blazers -1.5 v. Magic | 98-88 | Win | 100 | 4 h 37 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Trail Blazers are expected to get reinforcements for this game with C.J. McCollum no longer on their injury report. He hasn’t played in over a month because of a collapsed lung, so expect him to be on some sort of a minutes restriction. However, with him, Anfernee Simons and Jusuf Nurkic all healthy, they are a much more dangerous team. Meanwhile, the Magic are set to play their sixth straight game without Wendell Carter Jr. (hamstring) out. They went 1-4 without him the last five games, which included a loss to the Pistons. |
|||||||
01-17-22 | Blackhawks v. Seattle Kraken OVER 5.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -108 | 1 h 18 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Chicago won the first game between the clubs by a score of 4-2. I think they'll at least reach that number of goals here on Monday. Chicago is off a 3-0 win over Anaheim. The Hawks have scored three or more goals now in six of their last nine games. Defense has been the issue for Chicago this year, ranked 22nd in goals against this season. Seattle has lost nine in a row. The Kraken have struggled on both ends of the ice this year. They rank 24th in goals per game, but 31st in goals against. I believe Chicago can continue its recent offensive form and I look for Seattle to find the back of the net a couple of times tonight as well. |
|||||||
01-16-22 | Steelers v. Chiefs -12 | 21-42 | Win | 100 | 104 h 24 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Chiefs couldn’t have handpicked a better opening round opponent this Wild Card weekend. They’ve allowed an NFL worst 7.6 yards per play in the past two weeks. Over the same span, the Steelers have averaged 4.0 yards per play on offense. Kansas City has surrendered 12.9 PPG over the last eight games of the season. Pittsburgh has averaged 297.6 YPG over the same span. After starting the season 3-4, the Chiefs enter this contest on a 9-1 overall win skein, meaning they are surging at the right time. In fact, Kansas City is 19-3 SU and 13-8-1 ATS from Game Twelve out the past three seasons. Toss in Patrick Mahomes’ 27-1 SU and 16-11-1 ATS mark in his last 28 games during November, December, and January, and you know who will be advancing on to the divisional Round of the playoffs next week. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh is just 4-4 in its last eight games, losing the stats in seven of those contests. And in his last four games, QB Ben Roethlisberger has posted QB Ratings of 80.1, 56.2, 73.4 and 80.1. Yikes. That would find most starters on the bench in this league. Furthermore, Big Ben is 1-6 SU with only two ATS covers in his seven career starts as a dog of 7 or more points, while the Steel City’s 2.2 PPG in the 1Q is the lowest in the league this season – KC’s 7.6 is the best. |
|||||||
01-16-22 | 49ers +3.5 v. Cowboys | 23-17 | Win | 100 | 102 h 44 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Ever since the league first expanded the playoff field to 12 teams, and began seeding them in 1990, at least four new clubs have reached the postseason every successive year. The 2021-22 lineup features seven (50%) new teams – and two of them lock horns here, while also including the likes of the Cardinals, Bengals, Raiders, Patriots, and Eagles. After a 2-5 start, the Niners won eight of their final 10 games to qualify for the postseason, beating three playoff teams in the process. That’s a pretty strong body of work. Since the 49ers began using WR/RB Deebo Samuel extensively in the backfield in Week Ten, Samuel has been one of the NFL’s most unstoppable offensive weapons. He tied for the league high with 11 touchdowns over that span, and ranked No. 4 in yards from scrimmage (1,006). On the other side of the ball, since Dallas QB Dak Prescott returned to the lineup in Week 9 the offense has sputtered. Prescott ranked No. 11 in Total QBR in Weeks 1 to 6, but only No. 17 in Weeks 9 to 17. Worse, the Cowboys have beaten up on Washington and Eagles backups lately. Complicating matters, Jerry’s Boys are the worst team in the loop in Penalties Per Game (7.5) this season. Yes, Dallas was 10-2 SU and 11-1 ATS in conference play this season, but the Pokes are just 3-10 SUATS in the playoffs since 1997, including 1-6 ATS as a favorite. |
|||||||
01-16-22 | Canucks v. Capitals -185 | 4-2 | Loss | -185 | 1 h 56 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Only one game today and both teams are playing the back end of a back to back. I was originally gonna lay off this game but the Caps are getting Dimitry Orlov and Carl Hagelin out of COVID protocol and will have their full defense. Canucks have now lost 3 straight and they are missing a couple players today including their backup goalie. So either Thatcher Demko makes a second start in two days or the Canucks go with a third stringer they just called up. I like the Caps at home. |
|||||||
01-16-22 | Eagles v. Bucs -8.5 | 15-31 | Win | 100 | 97 h 21 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Defending Super Bowl champions have fared well at home the following postseason when coming off a win, going 13-2 SU and 10-4-1 ATS since 1990. Enter the Eagles, owners of the worst record of all teams still playing these days (read: fellow playoff foes) in the NFL. We are fully aware that you can only play the teams on your schedule, but after the Eagles followed their 2-5 start with a 7-3 run to clinch a playoff spot, it should be noted that four of those wins came against teams with a backup QB – and it’s only fair to note they didn’t beat a single team with a winning record. In fact, Philadelphia was laid to rest in each of its six games against fellow playoff squads this season. To close it out, consider that NFL playoff teams who won 4 or fewer games last season are 1-8 SU and 0-9 ATS since 1981 when coming off a loss of more than 7 points. |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Patriots v. Bills -4 | Top | 17-47 | Win | 100 | 83 h 49 m | Show |
Rating: 5 Unit Wild Card Game of the Week Rest assured, the Bills have been chewing nails since losing to Kansas City in the AFC title game last season. Not only have they played their way back to the postseason this year, they’ll take the field today knowing that playoff home teams who fell in their conference title game the previous season are 44-8 SU and 34-16-2 ATS overall, including 26-3 SU and 21-6-2 ATS when coming off a win of 6-plus points. Yes, we realize that six of their victories this season have come against teams that were using a backup quarterback, but after its 7-0 SUATS winning skein, New England enters just 1-3 SUATS in its last four contests while nearly mirroring its dismal 1-4 start to begin the season. The Pats where out-yarded -406 net yards against five fellow bowl teams this season, while the Bills outs tatted six playoff teams to the tune of +325 net yards. In fact, consider that NFL playoff home favorites who were in the playoffs the previous season are 15-3 SU and 14-5 ATS since 1996 when facing a foe coming off a loss, including 6-0 ATS when coming off a loss of more than 8 points. |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Raiders +5.5 v. Bengals | 19-26 | Loss | -109 | 79 h 0 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Joe Burrow enters this scrape with a hot hand, having tossed for 971 yards in his last two starts – just three yards short of an NFL record over a two-game period. Along with rookie WR Ja’Marr Chase, they have become one of the league’s mostfeared duos. With RB Joe Mixon tallying 16 TDs in 16 games this season, this is an offense no one wants to face this postseason. Meanwhile, the Raiders ride a 4-game win streak. With it, this will mark the first playoff game for both signal-callers, Derek Carr and Burrow. Las Vegas coach Rich Bisaccia became the first interim coach since 1960 to take over a team during mid-season and lead his troops to the playoffs. With the Raiders looking to avenge a 32-13 home loss to the Bengals back in November – a game much closer than the final score indicates when the contest got out of hand late (Burrow threw for 148 yards) – and the Bengals riding an 8-game losing skein in the playoffs since their last win during the 1990 season, look for Cincy to succumb to its postseason inexperience and an 0-5 SUATS record in the playoffs when entering off a loss. Take the points. |
|||||||
01-14-22 | Warriors v. Bulls -170 | 138-96 | Loss | -170 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units After getting smoked by the Bucks on Thursday, the Warriors have a quick turnaround here in Chicago. Draymond Green (calf), Klay Thompson (rest) and Gary Payton II (back) have all been ruled out, and it wouldn’t be a surprise if Otto Porter Jr. and/or Andre Iguodala are ultimately rested, as well. The Bulls will be highly motivated to bounce back from their second-half disaster against the Nets on Wednesday, so they could roll to a lopsided victory. |
|||||||
01-14-22 | Stars v. Panthers -198 | 1-7 | Win | 100 | 9 h 6 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Dallas won a wild home game vs. Florida about a week ago, but the Stars have just four road wins and are missing a couple of their top-six forwards. Florida is a Terminator at home with just three losses and also nearly at full strength from COVID/injury. We're taking this early because I expect it to be north of -200 by the morning. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Georgia State v. South Alabama -118 | 65-74 | Win | 100 | 6 h 6 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units This spread/ML seems low Thursday as South Alabama is way higher via both KenPom and Sagarin rankings. USA has two of the top seven scorers in the Sun Belt in Charles Manning (17.2 ppg) and Jay Jay Chandler (15.5 ppg). The Jaguars rank in the Top 3 of the Sun Belt in scoring defense (63.6 ppg), scoring offense (75.1), scoring margin (11.5), turnover margin (3.9), blocked shots per game (5.4 bpg) and turnovers forced (16.73). My only real worry here would be COVID issues, but otherwise South Alabama should win. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Canadiens v. Blackhawks -197 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 23 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units As of this writing, the Blackhawks are the only home team Thursday priced under -210 or so -- let's just take it now before it rises/comes off the board ahead of Montreal playing tonight in Boston with a very depleted roster. It should be third-string Sam Montembeault in net for the Habs, and he's an ugly 1-6-0 with a 3.98 GAA. Hawks netminder Marc-Andre Fleury shut out Montreal a few weeks ago for his 500th career win. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Jets v. Red Wings +1.5 | 3-0 | Loss | -193 | 29 h 32 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Jets are 2-5 in their last 7 vs. a team with a losing record and 2-6 in their last 8 vs. Eastern Conference. While the Red Wings are 8-3 in their last 11 home games. In addition the home team is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Devils v. Islanders -188 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Going to make a few NHL plays on lookahead lines because there are so many big favorites on Thursday and I think these numbers will only rise. New Jersey's top two goaltenders are out so the Devils will start Jon Gillies. There's a reason the 27-year-old journeyman has made only 14 career appearances in the NHL since 2016. New Jersey has a handful of other guys out, too, while the Islanders are very healthy other than Coach Barry Trotz in protocols. |
|||||||
01-13-22 | Canucks v. Lightning -245 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 31 h 30 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Canucks are 5-2 in their last 7 road games, 6-13 in their last 19 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game, and 2-7 in their last 9 after allowing 5 goals or more in their previous game. While the Lightning are 42-17 in their last 59 home games, 66-29 in their last 95 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game , and 50-23 in their last 73 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. In addition, the Canucks are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings. |

Rating: 2 Units Thought I posted this earlier but it didn't show up so I'm sure it was user error -- unfortunately, the ML moved from -160 to -170 in that time, although I doubt it matters as every model has Youngstown State winning despite entering on a two-game skid. Northern Kentucky is 0-5 on the road and has lost each by at least nine points and may have some COVID issues with its past three games postponed/canceled. These clubs are about the same regarding scoring defense but YSU is better offensively and is 8-2 this year when scoring at least 70. NKU has allowed a minimum of 70 points in three of its past four. |

01-13-22 | Florida Atlantic v. Middle Tennessee -165 | 57-70 | Win | 100 | 4 h 9 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units the Blue Raiders probably should be bigger favorites (at least -5 instead of -3.5) but I'm not messing with the spread regardless as FAU isn't a bad team at all. Plus, there could always be the surprise COVID factor. Middle Tennessee is one of those full-court pressure teams and it has led to 133 steals and 252 forced turnovers through the team's first 15 games. Pressure defense always works better at home, where MT is unbeaten -- it's why West Virginia is nearly impossible to beat in Morgantown. |

01-13-22 | Coastal Carolina +3.5 v. Appalachian State | 60-61 | Win | 100 | 4 h 42 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units In March these teams met in the Sun Belt Tournament semifinals, and Appalachian State edged Coastal Carolina, 64-61, in overtime. I expect the Chanticleers to be highly motivated for revenge and cover against an App State team that may have peaked during its tournament run. |

01-12-22 | Boise State +1 v. Nevada | 85-70 | Win | 100 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Boise State returns to action following a 15-day layoff. The Broncos will face a Nevada Wolf Pack team that has won six of its last seven. Last season, they also defeated Boise State three times. Yet, look for Boise State’s top-tier scoring defense to be a catalyst Wednesday. The Broncos rank 11th in the country, allowing just 58.2 points per game. |

01-12-22 | Seattle Kraken v. Stars -190 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 26 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Stars have won 4 of their last 5 games and they are now 13-3-1 at home this season. The Kraken have now lost 6 straight games, and 9 of their last 10. They are also just 4-9-2 on the road this season. Braden Holtby is still on the COVID list for the Stars so Jake Oettinger will get the start. He is 8-2-0 with a 2.22 GAA this season. Stars are pretty much healthy other than Holtby while the Kraken are missing two of their top scorers in Brandon Tanev and Jaden Schwartz. I don’t mind laying the juice here because the Stars have been so dominant at home, but a good way to lose the juice would be to play the Stars in regulation at -140. |

Not great for either side, but San Jose does come in off back-to-back victories after a 6-2 defeat at Detroit last week. The Wings have lost both games to open up their road trip. They return home for a game against the Jets on Thursday, so the possibility of "looking ahead" could be an issue as well. I think this is a very reasonable price to pay for the revenge-minded home side tonight. |

Rating: 2 Units Colorado is off a much tighter than expected 4-3 win at home over Seattle just last night and I believe it'll be fatigued here in the 2nd game of the B2B. Nashville on the other hand has been off for two nights after a 4-2 win at Arizona in its most recent action. In fact, the Preds enter playing their best hockey of the season after four straight victories. Nashville scored the 5-2 win over Colorado on December 16th and I believe it has a good chance to do the same again here at home tonight. |

01-10-22 | Georgia v. Alabama +3 | 33-18 | Loss | -110 | 126 h 14 m | Show | |
Rating: 3 Units Nick Saban stands 25-1 SU and 16-10 ATS against former coaches by an average margin of victory of 23.8 PPG, including 4-0 SU versus Smart by an average margin of victory of 11 PPG. He’s also a perfect 6-0 SUATS as a dog coming off four or more wins in a row – the same role in which he knocked off Georgia in the SEC title game last month. In addition, the Dawgs had better not let the Tide take a double-digit lead in this contest as Alabama is 60-0 SU in games when leading by 10 or more points (the longest skein in the nation). The favorite in CFP championship games shows no real advantage, going 4-3 SU and 2-5 ATS all-time, including 0-3 ATS when not undefeated. Bad role for Georgia, too, as the Bulldogs are just 1-4 SU and 0-5 ATS as bowl chalk of 7 or fewer points when not coming off consecutive SUATS wins and facing foes coming off a SUATS win. We could go back-and-forth all day, but the bottom line is we cannot pass up an opportunity to back the No. 1 ranked team in the nation as a dog in the biggest game of the season. |

Young Zach Fucale is in net and he has been spectacular in three appearances and two starts with a 0.42 GAA and a .980 save percentage. The Bruins are 3-8 in their last 11 games as underdogs and 5-12 in their past 17 in DC. Boston is certainly good enough to win this game, but I can't turn down the Caps at this great price at home. |

Rating: 2 Units The Sacramento Kings look to beat Portland for the third consecutive time this season when they visit the Trail Blazers on Sunday night. Both teams are struggling entering the latest meeting. Sacramento has lost three straight games and 11 of 16, while Portland has dropped six of its last seven games and 16 of its last 20. Portland will be without star guard Damian Lillard (abdomen) for the fourth straight game while backcourt partner CJ McCollum (lung) will miss his 15th consecutive game. The Trail Blazers are 3-11 during McCollum's absence. Consider that the Trail Blazers are 3-14 ATS in their last 17 games as an underdog. |

01-09-22 | Chargers v. Raiders +3 | Top | 32-35 | Win | 100 | 55 h 18 m | Show |
Rating: 4 UnitSNF Game of the Week The Chargers’ Achilles heel has been its scoring defense in late stages of the game, as the 10.3 PPG they surrender in the 4Q of games is the worst in the league. However, Vegas is the worst team in the league in Penalty Yards Per Game which means nothing surprises us in this prime time playoff eliminator. In a game of back-and-forth possibilities, we settle on this beauty that winning division home dogs of 3 or fewer points seeking revenge in their final game of the season are 11-5 SU and 12-4 ATS since 1980. In addition, playing on any division home dog with a winning record coming off a SU non-division NFL road win as a dog of 4 or more points if they are facing an opponent that has won 21 or fewer of its last 32 overall games is a perfect 7-0 ATS since 1980. That should put the Raiders in the playoffs. |

Rating: 2 Units Off a 4-0 loss at LA last night, I believe Detroit will struggle with fatigue/energy levels this evening. Anaheim is 18-12-4-3 this year, but it's now lost 5 of its last 6 after last night's 4-1 loss here to the Rangers. The difference for me comes on the offensive end though, as Anaheim averages 2.97 GPG, while Detroit averages 2.71. Give me the Ducks at home in this favorable rebound spot. Consider Anaheim! |

01-09-22 | Wisconsin -125 v. Maryland | 70-69 | Win | 100 | 9 h 16 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Containing two of the nation's top three scorers was a big task this week for Maryland, which proved to have no answers for Iowa's Keegan Murray or Illinois' Kofi Cockburn. Now comes the nation's other top scorer as Johnny Davis and No. 23 Wisconsin (12-2, 3-1 Big Ten) arrive in College Park, Md., Sunday for a game against the Terrapins (8-6, 0-3). Tough assignments are the fate these days for Maryland, which yielded 35 points to Murray in an 80-75 loss at Iowa Monday, and 23 points and 18 rebounds to Cockburn in a 76-64 defeat at Illinois on Thursday. Consider that the Badgers are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up win, 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite, and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall. |

01-09-22 | 49ers +4.5 v. Rams | Top | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 98 h 9 m | Show |
Rating: 4 Unit NFC Play of the Day Niners need either a win or a loss by the Saints, and they are in the playoffs as a wild card. Frisco upended Los Angeles, 31-10, as a 3.5-point home dog back in November, and has now won and covered each of the past three meetings in this series. After stumbling out of the gate 3-5 during the first half of the season, Kyle Shanahan’s troops have found their groove going 6-2 SUATS and 7-1 ITS (In The Stats) in their previous eight games. With the horned heads just 3-9 ATS at home when coming off consecutive road contests, and the 49ers sporting a 28-12 SU and 28-10-2 ATS record as a visitor in this series, the points become the play today. To cap it off, consider that the Rams are 1-7 SUATS at home in division games when coming off consecutive away wins, including 0-6 SUATS the last six. |

01-09-22 | Jets v. Bills OVER 41 | 10-27 | Loss | -110 | 98 h 37 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Here’s something from the ‘Did You Know?’ department: Over the last three months of NFL play, who has been the league’s best OVER team? Your obvious guesses would probably be teams like the Cowboys, Buccaneers, Chiefs or Bills (the top 4 scoring teams in the NFL this year). But it’s actually the NEW YORK JETS. After starting the season with 3 straight UNDERS, the Jets have actually gone a very surprising 10-3 O/U since the start of October... with a very gaudy average of 56.5 combined PPG! So that’s where we are going this week, as we play the OVER in the AFC EAST Division game between the JETS and BILLS. |

The Hawks began the road trip -- which covered 5,723 miles -- with 12 players on either the COVID-19 list or injured list. Healthy again, they have won two of the five road games. The Clippers were defeated 123-108 on Saturday for their third straight loss. The Clippers have dropped nine of their last 12 games. |

01-09-22 | Stars v. Blues -150 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 3 h 30 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Stars played yesterday in Dallas so they should be a bit weary playing a back to back and their third game in three nights despite their long break. Jordan Binnington should be back in net for the Blues after getting the last game off, while Braden Holtby should start for the Stars. Holtby struggled in his first start back but the Stars are 4-9-1 on the road while the Blues are 13-3-2 at home. Blues will be without a couple players still, but they swept the Stars in a 2 game home and home series in December, I expect them to continue their strong play at home and against the Stars. |

01-09-22 | Bengals +4.5 v. Browns | Top | 16-21 | Loss | -110 | 95 h 54 m | Show |
Rating: 6 Unit AFC Game of the Month Cincinnati comes into this one celebrating their first playoff berth, division title, and season of double-digit wins since 2015. QB Joe Burrow passed for 446 yards and four TDs, giving him 971 yards and eight TDs, and zero interceptions over the past two weeks. And Burrow to Ja’Marr Chase has become the NFL ‘s most dangerous connection. With the Browns averaging a mere 4.4 PPG during the 4Q this season – only Atlanta was worse – look for the Bengals to avenge a 41-16 home loss suffered against Cleveland two months ago. Finally, consider that Cincinnati is 10-0 SU and 8-2 in this series when the Browns are coming off consecutive SUATS losses, including 6-0 SUATS when Cleveland owns a losing record. |

Winless at home since Dec. 16, the Nets will attempt to halt a five-game home skid Sunday afternoon when they face the San Antonio Spurs. Brooklyn earned its Dec. 16 home victory when Kevin Durant scored 34 points in a 114-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. The losing streak started with a seven-point loss to the Orlando Magic on Dec. 18, which was followed by collapses down the stretch in losses to the 76ers and Los Angeles Clippers before the Nets lost by double digits to the Memphis Grizzlies and Milwaukee Bucks. On Monday, the Nets trailed by 28 against Memphis in a 118-104 defeat. After rallying from 19 points down to win at Indiana on Wednesday, the Nets never led, trailing by as many as 24 points in Friday's 121-109 loss to the Bucks, who hit 16 3-pointers. Consider that the Spurs are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. |

01-08-22 | Heat v. Suns -8.5 | 123-100 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Miami Heat, 2-2 in what is scheduled to be a six-game road trip, will face their stiffest test yet on Saturday when they visit the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix has the best record in the NBA at 30-8, and Chris Paul leads the league in assists per game (10.1) while ranking fifth in steals (1.9). The Suns are 25-0 when leading after three quarters, and Paul -- as their veteran point guard -- deserves credit for closing out opponents. Consider that the Heat are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games following a ATS win. |

01-08-22 | Pepperdine v. Gonzaga -29.5 | 83-117 | Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Fourth-ranked Gonzaga looks to defeat Pepperdine for the 42nd consecutive time when the two teams open West Coast Conference play on Saturday night at Spokane, Wash. The Waves have lost 23 consecutive times in Spokane as part of that dubious skid. Pepperdine's last road win in the series was a 65-64 triumph on Feb. 19, 1998, and its most recent victory anywhere against the Bulldogs was an 88-79 home win on Jan. 18, 2002. Gonzaga (11-2) is 45-2 against the Waves (6-9) during Mark Few's 23-year tenure as coach. |

01-08-22 | Capitals v. Wild +101 | 2-3 | Win | 101 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units As the Wild look to keep rolling, Washington hopes to regroup. The Capitals will try to recover after giving up five unanswered goals in a 5-1 loss on Friday night in St. Louis. Washington has dropped two straight following a 4-3 overtime loss against the New Jersey Devils last Sunday. That snapped a two-game winning streak for the Capitals, who posted a 5-3 win over the Nashville Predators on Dec. 29 and a 3-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Dec. 31. Consider that the Wild are 15-5 in their last 20 when their opponent allows 5 goals or more in their previous game and 30-10 in their last 40 home games. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Sharks v. Flyers +110 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Sharks have also been depleted with captain Logan Couture on the COVID list. Erik Karlsson, Jacob Middleton and goaltender James Reimer were all out with injuries as well. Consider that the Sharks are 8-17 in their last 25 when their opponent allows 5 goals or more in their previous game and 1-4 in their last 5 road games. While the Flyers are 11-4 in their last 15 games following a home loss of 3 or more goals. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Panthers v. Hurricanes -105 | 4-3 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Florida Panthers head into Saturday night's game with the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh, N.C., knowing that the road to an Atlantic Division title begins with improving their performance on the road. Florida is an NHL-best 18-3-0 on home ice this season, which is an amazing four more wins than any other team in the league. But the Panthers, who trail first-place Tampa Bay by two points, have won just four times (4-4-5) in 13 games away from Sunrise, Fla., which ties them for the second-fewest road wins in the league. Consider that the Hurricanes are 36-16 in their last 52 home games. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Maple Leafs v. Avalanche OVER 6.5 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the over is 4-0 in Maple Leafs last 4 vs. Central, 5-1-1 in Maple Leafs last 7 vs. Western Conference and 4-1-1 in Maple Leafs last 6 vs. a team with a winning record. While the over is 21-7-3 in Avalanche last 31 overall and 18-6-3 in Avalanche last 27 games as a favorite. In addition the over is 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings and 10-0 in the last 10 meetings in Colorado. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Washington State v. Utah -2.5 | 77-61 | Loss | -103 | 6 h 25 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Utes have lost three in a row. They blew a 14-point lead in the second half Thursday in a 74-68 loss to visiting Washington. Branden Carlson, Lazar Stefanovic and Gabe Madsen each scored 12 points for Utah and Marco Anthony and Rollie Worster tallied 10 apiece. Anthony grabbed a game-high 13 rebounds and led the Utes with four assists. It was just Utah's second loss in eight home games this season. |

01-08-22 | Tennessee v. LSU -1.5 | 67-79 | Win | 100 | 6 h 20 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units LSU held on to beat Kentucky for its first SEC win. The Tigers bounced back from their first loss of the season in their SEC opener at Auburn six days earlier. LSU held the Wildcats to 10 points during the final 13 minutes of the game to overcome a nine-point deficit. Even with the frantic final two minutes, the Tigers finished the game with a 24-10 run. Consider that the Tigers are 19-6-1 ATS in their last 26 games overall. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Notre Dame v. Georgia Tech +1.5 | 72-68 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 17 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Notre Dame is coming off a big win over North Carolina on Wednesday to make it four straight wins for the Irish as they improved to 2-1 in the ACC. Notre Dame now hits the road where it has struggled, going 1-2 with the two losses coming by blowouts against Boston College and Illinois and the lone win being a one-point win at Pittsburgh. Overall, the Irish are 6-0 at home but just 2-5 on the highway, getting outscored by close to nine ppg. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Iowa State +6.5 v. Oklahoma | 66-79 | Loss | -101 | 6 h 13 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units First, Iowa State had further to go, after going 2-22 last season, 0-18 in conference play, and a combined 14-42 over the last two seasons combined. The Cyclones lost all five of their top scorers from last year's team and returned three rotational players from last year's team, who averaged just 10.7 points per game combined. Iowa State won its first 12 games of the season by an average of 17 points per game, with just two decided by fewer than 10 points. The Cyclones are coming off a 51-47 win over Texas Tech on Wednesday that was their first conference win since late February 2020. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Chiefs v. Broncos +10.5 | 28-24 | Win | 100 | 75 h 34 m | Show | |
Rating: 3 Units The Chiefs were 3-point chalk two weeks ago in this game at the Super Book in Las Vegas. They were also 9.5-point favorites in this matchup at Arrowhead just five weeks ago, a game they won 22-9 despite being out yarded 404-267 yards. Given the Featherheads’ 2-8 ATS mark of late against sub .500 foes, look for the Broncos to improve on their 8-1 ATS mark when coming off a division road contest. In fact, for more, consider that Denver is 17-5 SU and 20-2 ATS as a home dog when coming off a division contest, including 13-0 ATS versus sub .700 opponents. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Syracuse +4.5 v. Wake Forest | 74-77 | Win | 100 | 3 h 48 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Demon Deacons played without Daivien Williamson, the team's third-leading scorer (12.9), who missed a game for the first time this season Tuesday night and was believed to be in the health and safelty protocol. Carter Whitt filled in, though he didn't score. Of concern to Forbes were 22 turnovers, including eight by LaRavia. Consider that the Demon Deacons are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Texas v. Oklahoma State +2.5 | 51-64 | Win | 100 | 3 h 45 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Cowboys are 12-5-1 ATS in their last 18 Saturday games and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog. While the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | VCU -7 v. La Salle | 85-66 | Win | 100 | 3 h 39 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Rams are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall and 6-0 ATS in their last 6 road games. While the Explorers are 17-35-1 ATS in their last 53 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600 and 5-12-1 ATS in their last 18 games overall. In addition, the road team is 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | East Carolina v. Temple -4 | 75-78 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 34 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Consider that the Pirates are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games and 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog. While the Owls are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games, and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall. In addition the home team is 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Villanova -8.5 v. DePaul | 79-64 | Win | 100 | 3 h 31 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Justin Moore continues to show why he's on the verge of becoming the next standout for No. 19 Villanova. With Collin Gillespie scoreless midway through the second half, Moore took over and carried the Wildcats past Creighton 75-41 on Wednesday. Moore finished with 22 points, though Gillespie, a Player of the Year candidate, did finish with 11. Moore will look to keep Villanova (10-4, 3-1 Big East) surging when it aims for a fourth straight win Saturday at DePaul. Consider that the Blue Demons are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a home underdog. |
|||||||
01-08-22 | Connecticut +4.5 v. Seton Hall | 87-90 | Win | 100 | 1 h 5 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units UConn (10-3, 1-1 Big East) is ready to return to action for the first time since beating Marquette 78-70 on Dec. 21. All players are expected to be available, although some could be on a minutes limit. The Pirates (10-3, 1-2) lost to both Providence and Villanova last week with only eight scholarship players available. But rim protector Ike Obiagu returned from COVID pause to help Seton Hall beat host Butler on Tuesday, and 6-10 forward Tyrese Samuel likely will be available to play against the Huskies. Consider that the Huskies are 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. |

01-08-22 | Dayton -8 v. George Washington | 83-58 | Win | 100 | 1 h 55 m | Show | |
