03-18-16 | Predators v. Capitals OVER 5 | 1-4 | Push | 0 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |
Nashville vs. Washington Over 5 The Predators and Capitals go at it on Friday night and the over holds solid value here. Both of these teams certainly have the ability to find the back of the net. On the season, Nashville has averaged 2.72 goals per game, while the Capitals are sitting well above 3 per game. With as many playmakers as both these teams have, it's rather easy for them to find the back of net. Situationally too, this is a solid over spot for both teams. The Predators have hit the over in 6 of their last 9 games and had two pushes in that string of games. The Capitals have been an over bet following a win too. This team has hit the over 12 times and pushed 7 times in a 23 game span. These two teams met back on 2/9 and things were as expected. Both teams had plenty of opportunities on goal as Washington tallied a 5-3 win. Some trends to consider. Over is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings. Over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings in Washington. Expect a similar game to the one on 2/9, as both teams will have plenty attack in them, which should push this total over. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* NHL O/U Play |

03-18-16 | Middle Tennessee v. Michigan State -18 | 90-81 | Loss | -106 | 37 h 24 m | Show | |
Michigan State -18 The Spartans open up Round of 64 play against the MTSU Blue Raiders and this could not be a better matchup for this Spartans team. Michigan State is a heck of a lot more physical and tough than MTSU. The Spartans use Matt Costello (10.4 PPG, 8.2 RPG) and Deyonta Davis (7.4 PPG, 5.5 RPG) down low and they have a lot of height. On the Blue Raiders side of things, their tallest guy is 6'7. It's safe to say the Spartans will dominate the paint. The Spartans also have a major advantage in the aspect that they're really good in March. This team just knows when to turn it up. Michigan State has won 10 of 11 and 9 straight as they swept through the Big Ten tourney with rather ease. They also have one of the best coaches in Tom Izzo. in the month of March, Izzo has gone 100-42. Some trends to consider.  Spartans are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 games overall. Spartans are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Friday games. Michigan State is just so more physical and much more talented here. Look for them to run away with this Round of 64 game with rather ease. Back Michigan State. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-17-16 | Gonzaga v. Seton Hall OVER 145.5 | 68-52 | Loss | -108 | 58 h 3 m | Show | |
Gonzaga vs. Seton Hall Over A lot of pace can be expected here as the Bulldogs and Pirates get set to do battle on Thursday night. Both of these teams like to get out in transition and aren't afraid to hoist it at any point during the shot clock. Gonzaga averages 80 points per game and in the WCC tourney, they were the easiest over bet. The Bulldogs put up 92 against Portland (allowed 67), 88 against BYU (allowed 84), and 85 against SMU (allowed 75). As for Seton Hall, they average 75 points per game and in their first two games they won 81-73 vs. Creighton and 87-83 against Gonzaga. Both teams have hit the over in 6 of their last 10 games too. Some trends to consider. The total has gone OVER in 5 of Seton Hall's last 6 games. The total has gone OVER in 4 of Gonzaga's last 5 games. Both teams really will push the tempo here. Neither team likes to play slow as it forces them well out of their game. Look for both teams to put up a lot of shots in this one, giving the over value. Back the Over. Good luck, Razor Ray.

03-17-16 | Providence -1.5 v. USC | 70-69 | Loss | -110 | 57 h 51 m | Show | |
Providence -1.5 The Friars get set to take on USC in a 9 vs. 8 matchup and it's Providence who holds value here. Providence comes into this one playing very well as they've won 4 of their last 5 with the lone loss being to Villanova in the Big East tourney. The Friars gave Nova all they could handle and fell just short in the end. Providence has covered in their last 5 games and have been a solid 18-14 ATS overall this season. USC can pin their success at their home play. They were dominant at home, but the road was such a sketchy place for them. They were 5-10 SU away from home and 6-9 ATS. While they are listed as the "home team" the game is being played at PNC Arena, a neutral site. Defense is where the Friars hold a major advantage. Providence has held the opposition to just 69 points per game and that comes from a very high pressured strategy. They average roughly 7 steals per game, which is very impressive. Some trends to consider. USC is 2-6 ATS in their last 8. Providence is 5-0 ATS in their last 5. USC is 2-5 SU in their last 7. The Friars come into this one playing much better and their defensive play is what will win this game. They close out so well on shooters and do not let teams get to the basket easily. With that, laying the small number is the way to go. Back Providence. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-17-16 | Buffalo v. Miami (Fla) -14 | 72-79 | Loss | -105 | 56 h 56 m | Show | |
Miami -14 The Buffalo Bulls and Miami Hurricanes meet on Thursday in a 14 vs. 3 seed matchup. Buffalo got hot and made a nice run through the MAC Tournament, but there is nothing from their regular season body of work that would suggest they could play with Miami in this game. Buffalo had a rough time hanging around with any quality teams in their non-conference slate this year. They lost by 19 at Old Dominion. They lost by 22 at St. Joe's. They lost by 21 at VCU. Buffalo simply couldn't match the level of the top teams they played this season. Miami won the early season tournament in Puerto Rico by beating down Utah, Mississippi State, and Butler on neutral floors. The Hurricanes level of play dipped a bit in the middle of the year, but they are back to playing very well late in the season. They have a good coach and some good guards, and those are two big keys in March. Take Miami. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-17-16 | Iona +8 v. Iowa State | 81-94 | Loss | -109 | 52 h 41 m | Show | |
Iona +8 The Iona Gaels have a lot of talent, and they might have the best player on the floor in A.J. English. English is a future NBA player who can really fill it up. He can shoot it from outside, and he is the type of guy who can create his own shot. What has Iowa State done to show they can win on a neutral floor? Iowa State was great at home this year, but there is a big difference between playing a game in Denver, Colorado against Iona and playing at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones lost 11 games and struggled badly away from home. Iona is a veteran team that isn't going to be overwhelmed by the moment. That's important because there are a lot of the smaller schools that aren't able to get past that problem. The Gaels also closed the season playing their best basketball of the year. Some trends to consider, Iona is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games. Iona is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. Take Iona. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-17-16 | Butler -4 v. Texas Tech | 71-61 | Win | 100 | 50 h 6 m | Show | |
Butler -4 The Butler Bulldogs have a nice trio of stars in Jones, Martin, and Dunham. This is a team that has been a bit up and down this year, but Butler is a team with a nice veteran core that can be trusted in the postseason. They'll go up against Tubby Smith's Texas Tech Red Raiders. Texas Tech was a nice story this year, but a close look at their performance away from home this year makes me think they aren't quite as good as they looked in the middle of the year. They lost to teams like Kansas State and Arkansas on the road this year. They had just one good road win (Baylor). The Big East is definitely a much better conference than they have been in the past, and Butler is being overlooked by too many people now. When you have three very good scoring options on the floor at all times, it is tough on the opposing defense. Some betting trends to consider in this game. Butler is 21-6-1 ATS in their last 28 NCAA Tournament games. Butler is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. the Big 12. Texas Tech is 3-13 ATS in their last 16 neutral site games. Take Butler. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-16-16 | Knicks v. Warriors -15.5 | 85-121 | Win | 100 | 11 h 21 m | Show | |
Golden State -15.5 The Warriors welcome in the Knicks on Wednesday night and they continue to tear apart the competition and this one should be no different. Golden State has hit the 60 win plateau and is now setting their sights on grabbing their 50th consecutive win at home. The Warriors come in off an 18 point domination of the Pelicans, as they once again covered a big spread. Golden State is now 37-27-2 ATS overall and when you're averaging 115.6 points per game, you're likely going to cover a lot of big spreads. As for the Knicks, they've been a wreck this year. Their road play has been horrific, going 12-22 and they average just 98.4 points per road contest. That doesn't bode well when you're going up against a team that can strike for 120+ points on a regular basis. Golden State has dominated the head to head, winning 3 in a row. That also includes a 116-95 win in New York at the end of January. Some trends to consider. Warriors are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 1 days rest. Warriors are 19-9-1 ATS in their last 29 Wednesday games. Look for Golden State to continue their dominance over the Knicks here. Golden State has covered in 10 of the last 13 against New York and this one should be no different. Back Golden State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* NBA ATS Play |

03-16-16 | Hawks v. Pistons +1 | 118-114 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 2 m | Show | |
Detroit Pistons +1 The Pistons come in off one of the most embarrassing losses in franchise history and look to bounce back here as they get set to take on the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night. Detroit took on Washington last time out and was completely embarrassed from the opening tip and even though it was a giant loss, the +1 to the L column is clearly what kills them the most. In the midst of a battle for the 8th spot in the East, the Pistons cannot afford to string together losses. This is a solid spot for them as they get set to open a 9 game home stand. Detroit has played extremely well at home this year, going 19-11 SU. They've been equally as good ATS, going 19-10-1 in that span. Detroit has played much better on the defensive end, holding teams under 100 points per game when they come into The Palace of Auburn Hills. Some trends to consider. Pistons are 34-16-1 ATS in their last 51 home games. Detroit is 7-3 ATS after coming out a blowout loss of 34 points or more. The Pistons realistically need Andre Drummond to dominate the paint. This team will only go as far as he takes them and he matches up well against them here. Back Detroit. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* NBA ATS Play |
|||||||
03-16-16 | Belmont +7 v. Georgia | 84-93 | Loss | -106 | 16 h 6 m | Show | |
Belmont +7 Belmont and Georgia meet in the first round of the NIT and it's certainly a motivation factor here that gives the visitors a lot of value. Georgia made a late season run at trying to gain an at large bid and had Kentucky on the ropes in the semi finals of the SEC tourney. However, at about the 10 minute mark of the 2nd half, they completely collapsed and so did their NCAA Tournament chances. Belmont on the other hand should be a bit disappointed too here, but this team knows any kind of postseason is good for their program. Belmont won the regular season title in the Ohio Valley Conference and were upset by Austin Peay who will be representing the conference. The Bruins had a quality season as they upset Marquette and did run off a stretch where they won nine in a row. Belmont has no problem scoring either. This team averages 83 points per game and really likes to push the tempo which gives them an advantage against a Bulldogs defense that isn't used to the run and gun style of offense. Some trends to consider. Bruins are 15-5 ATS in their last 20 games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game. Bruins are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Belmont doesn't back down from anyone, just ask Marquette. Expect them to come out firing here and really give the Bulldogs fits here. Back Belmont. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* CBB ATS Play |
|||||||
03-15-16 | Bruins v. Sharks OVER 5.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
Boston vs. San Jose Over 5.5 The Bruins head west into San Jose for a Tuesday night showdown and the over here holds a lot of value given both teams ability to find the back of the net. Looking at the visitors from Boston first, this team loves playing on the road. The Bruins have averaged 3.27 goals per road contest this year. On the home side of things, San Jose has averaged 2.94 goals per game, but does concede 2.77 per home game. This year, San Jose has hit the over 19 times in 28 home contests. Overall, they are 37-26 to the over. The last time these two teams met back on 11/17 and it turned into the contest that was certainly expected. The Sharks went into Boston and ended up leaving with a 5-4 victory. Some trends to consider. Over is 16-7-3 in Bruins last 26 vs. Pacific. Over is 16-7-3 in Bruins last 26 vs. Pacific. This game is surely going to be fast paced with a lot of action. Both teams are very sketchy on the defensive side of the puck and have some very talented offensive firepower. Look for goals to come all night long here as we see a similar game like the one back on 11/17. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL O/U play |

03-15-16 | Vanderbilt v. Wichita State UNDER 137 | 50-70 | Win | 100 | 20 h 33 m | Show | |
Vanderbilt vs. Wichita State Under 137 The Vanderbilt Commodores and the Wichita State Shockers meet in the best "play-in" game in NCAA Tournament history, at least on paper. Vanderbilt was a surprise entry into the tournament, and Wichita State is likely surprised to be in the play-in game.Both of these are very good on the defensive end. Wichita State is especially good defensively. The Shockers rank first in the nation in defensive efficiency according to Ken Pomeroy's site. Wichita State does a great job limiting opponents to one shot. They also force a ton of turnovers throughout the course of the game. Vanderbilt's Damian Jones and Luke Kornet are a nice tag team of shot blockers down low. These guys will be better in the paint than anyone Wichita State saw in the Missouri Valley Conference. Some trends to note for this contest. The under is 16-6-1 in Vanderbilt's last 23 neutral site games. The under is 8-2-1 in Wichita State's last 11 games. The under is 4-1 in Wichita State's last 5 neutral site games. Both of these teams like to play in the halfcourt rather than in transition, and early game jitters can certainly play a role in the first NCAA Tournament game for teams. Take the Under. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 7* CBB O/U Play |

03-14-16 | Wolves +1 v. Suns | 104-107 | Loss | -106 | 20 h 53 m | Show | |
Minnesota Timberwolves +1 The Timberwolves head into Phoenix on Monday night and anytime you can get points when going against this Suns team, there is value. Phoenix and losing streaks have become quite the norm. The Suns have dropped 3 straight games and that is just a small sample size of what has been a season long struggle for them. The Suns aren't even that good at home. This season, Phoenix has gone just 11-22 SU and concedes over 106 points per home game. While Minnesota has been far from overwhelming, this team has built such a solid young core, that will matchup well against the Suns. The T'wolves come in off their best performance of the season as they upset the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday behind a Ricky Rubio 3 pointer. Minnesota has the solid compliment of veterans and rookies that it balances out so well and helps the younger guys play better. Some trends to consider. Timberwolves are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Phoenix. Timberwolves are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 2 days rest. Take the point here. The Suns aren't good at all and this is a solid matchup for Minnesota, especially coming in after a momentum building game like they are. Back Minnesota. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-14-16 | Predators -145 v. Oilers | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 15 m | Show | |
Nashville Predators -145 The Predators head into Edmonton on Monday night and with their recent surge up the standings, the Preds hold solid value here. The Preds do come in off a loss, but that was on the heels of a 14 game point streak for them. They had gone 9-0-5 over that span, catapulting themselves right back into the playoff race. Nashville was also in the midst of a 13 game road point streak that came to an end. Both runs were very impressive and shows how good this team has been lately. They get a chance at an Oilers team who hasn't been good lately. Edmonton has scored just 2 times over their last 3 games. They have lost 2 of their last 3 with both losses being home shutout losses. This is team is in quite the offensive funk and that hasn't been rare for them this season. Scoring goals consistently has been a major problem for them. Nashville has also dominated the head to head series. They have taken 5 straight and to surprise, they've held Edmonton down offensively. The Oilers have recorded just 4 goals in that 5 game span. Some trends to consider. Predators are 4-1 in their last 5 Monday games. Predators are 10-3 in their last 13 road games. Considering the situation and how good Nashville has been lately and head to head against the Oilers, this is a game where they bounce back against a very weak opponent. Back Nashville. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NHL ML Play |

03-14-16 | Panthers v. Islanders -130 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 35 m | Show | |
New York Islanders -130 The Islanders welcome in the Florida Panthers on Monday night and the home side holds a lot of value here. Florida has played exceptionally well this season, but the fatigue is really starting to catch up with them. The Panthers have won just 3 of their last 8 overall and really look sluggish. They head into a Barclays Center, where the Islanders have played extremely well in. New York has gone 20-8-3 on the season and has won 5 of their last 6 inside the Barclays Center. On the visitors side of things, Florida has lost 4 of it's last 5 road games. New York also has their captain in top form. Jonathan Tavares has scored in 3 straight games and has averaged over 1 point per home game this season. With him in solid form, expect the Islanders first line to really be a difference maker in this one. Some trends to consider. Islanders are 5-1 in their last 6 home games. Islanders are 16-5 in their last 21 Monday games. With the Islanders playing so well at home and this low of juice, they hold some solid value here on Monday. Back New York. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* NHL ML Play |

03-13-16 | Knicks -2 v. Lakers | 90-87 | Win | 100 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
New York Knicks -2 The Knicks head into Los Angeles on Sunday night and we get the final rendition of Carmelo vs. Kobe. Los Angeles is typically a giant underdog in almost any spot, which is why this spot is very valuable. Yes the Knicks aren't the greatest of teams and haven't been this season, but they have much more talent than Los Angeles. Carmelo Anthony may be frustrated, but he at least hasn't given up. Anthony has logged heavy minutes lately as he's gone 31 plus minutes in 12 straight games as he continues to not give up on the season nor give up on this team despite their struggles. Anthony has been shooting extremely well too, going 8 of 16 from the field last time out, while scoring 20 points. The Knicks have taken three straight in this head to head series as they've had no problem shutting Bryant down. Some trends to consider. Knicks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss. Knicks are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. The Knicks laying this small of a number is a solid move. They are much more talented and when you get a hungry Carmelo Anthony, there is no stopping him. Back New York. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-13-16 | Memphis v. Connecticut -5 | 58-72 | Win | 100 | 4 h 55 m | Show | |
Connecticut -5 The Huskies and Tigers go at it in the AAC Title game and it's the favorites who have tremendous value here. With a spot in the tourney on the line, the Huskies have plenty of experience in this position. Uconn has been in all the high pressured situations you can think of in the past seasons and this spot is no different. The Huskies are on fire right now as well. After a 4 overtime win over Cincinnati, they showed no signs of slowing down as they routed top seeded Temple by 15 points on Saturday. With their win over the Owls, the Huskies may have locked in an at large bid, but they can control their own destiny here and roll right into the tourney with a win. Uconn took both regular season meetings, which includes a 20 point road win in Memphis last time these two teams met. Uconn dominated the boards and held Memphis to under 40% shooting in the win. Some trends to consider. Huskies are 35-15-1 ATS in their last 51 neutral site games. Tigers are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following a ATS win. The Huskies are much more experienced situationally and should have no problem taking care of business here. Back Uconn. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-13-16 | St. Joe's +4 v. VCU | 87-74 | Win | 100 | 1 h 3 m | Show | |
St. Joe's +4 The VCU Rams rely heavily on their defensive pressure to force turnovers and get easy buckets. VCU isn't a very good team in the halfcourt on offense, and that should be a big issue for them against St. Joe's in the Atlantic 10 final on Sunday. St. Joe's turns the ball over less than any other team in the conference, and they have guards who are well equipped to handle the pressure. The Hawks have been playing some excellent basketball down the stretch. They've beaten Dayton twice in the last three weeks, and the Flyers are an excellent team that plays very well in March. VCU deserves to be the favorite because of their body of work, but St. Joe's recent performances have been awfully impressive. The Rams should be a very small favorite. Getting this many points, I'll gladly grab the underdog. A couple trends to consider for this game. The underdog is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 between these teams. St. Joe's is 20-7-1 ATS in their last 28 games. Take St. Joe's. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-12-16 | Long Beach State v. Hawaii OVER 144 | 60-64 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
Long Beach State vs. Hawaii Over 144 The 1 and 3 seeds meet in the Big West Conference final on Saturday night. Both teams have the ability to really hit jump shots, especially threes, giving the over a lot of value here. Hawaii comes in averaging 79 points per game on neutral courts. This team likes to really push the ball and use very little of the shot clock. In the two tourney games they've played in thus far, Hawaii has put up 75 and 88 point performances. As for Long Beach State, they too have been the same way. They've put up 82 and 77 points in their two games and really like to push the tempo. They get into their comfort zone when they get a quick  shot up as they like to attack the offensive glass as well. Long Beach State has been 20-11 to the over on the season, while Hawaii has gone 13-11-1. Some trends to consider. Over is 4-1 in Warriors last 5 games following a straight up win. Over is 5-2 in Warriors last 7 overall. This has the making of a very fast paced game, where both teams have the ability to hit the 80s. With that, the over has tremendous value. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-12-16 | Utah v. Oregon -1.5 | 57-88 | Win | 100 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
Oregon Ducks -1.5 The Ducks take on the 2 seed Utah in the Pac-12 Championship and Oregon holds value here at this low of a number. The Ducks have a chance to grab a 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, but will certainly need a Pac-12 Championship if they want to show the committee they deserve it. Oregon swept the season series and did it with rather ease. They handled Utah by 10 at home and also took care of business on the road by 18 points. The Ducks defense stepped up in both games, slowing down Utah's 7 footer. Utah has also struggled against the Ducks head to head for many seasons. In the past 5 seasons, the Utes have gone just 1-9 head to head in this series. Oregon has also had their offense going nuts lately. They put up 83 in the win over Washington and then followed that up with a 95 point performance against Arizona. The Ducks 'have had both the inside and outside game working as they have caused so many problems with their ball movement. Some trends to consider. Utes are 0-5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Ducks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. Pacific-12. Look for Oregon to really push the tempo here and with a 1 seed chance on the line, they should be able to handle business. Back Oregon. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-11-16 | Knicks v. Clippers -9.5 | 94-101 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 20 m | Show | |
Los Angeles Clippers -9.5 A bounce back is in order here as the Los Angeles Clippers welcome in the New York Knicks on Friday night. In the past 3 in LA, the Clippers have taken all three in this series and held the Knicks to just 79.3 points per game. Some trends to consider. Clippers are 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss. Clippers are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. Los Angeles should have no problem here bouncing back and taking out some frustrations on the Knicks today. Back Los Angeles. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* NBA ATS Play |

03-11-16 | Blackhawks -105 v. Stars | 2-5 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 45 m | Show | |
Chicago Blackhawks -105 The Blackhawks and Dallas Stars open as a PK here and its the Blackhawks who have tremendous value. Sole possession of first place is on the line and with the Hawks being the much more experienced team in this situation, they certainly are worth the play. Chicago has been a solid road team this year considering the factors as they've gone 17-13-3-1 away from home. This team has one of the best goals for/goals against in the NHL. Chicago averages 2.82 goals per game while they concede just 2.38. That bodes well as they go up against a Dallas team that allows nearly 3 goals per game. They should be expecting a lot of chances here today. Dallas also comes sputtering into this one. The Stars have gone 3-5-3 over their last 11 and really haven't picked up any steam lately. They've had many defensive breakdowns, which has led to easy counter attacks for the opposition. Some trends to consider. Blackhawks are 4-1 in their last 5 Friday games. Blackhawks are 36-15 in their last 51 games playing on 1 days rest. Expect Chicago to use their experience here and really get out quickly tonight against the Stars, en route to a first place win. Back Chicago. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 7* NHL ML Play |

03-11-16 | Florida v. Texas A&M -4 | 66-72 | Win | 100 | 3 h 28 m | Show | |
Texas A&M -4 The Aggies get set to take on Florida and the number 1 seed in the SEC Tournament holds tremendous value here. The Aggies come into this one hot, winners of 6 straight games and continue to look for a better and better seed in the NCAA tournament. They'll get a very tired Florida team who had a hard fought battle with Arkansas yesterday, which will certainly lead to some fatigue, especially in the 2nd half. Texas A&M relies heavily on their duo of Jalen Jones and Danuel House to get their offense going and the duo did just that against Florida in the regular season this season. The two had a combined 48 points to lead the way in a win over the Gators. Expect those two to have another big game here today as they took advantage of their ability to create space and get themselves open looks in the meeting earlier this season. A&M is also very stingy on defense. This team allows just 65 points per game, which is near the top in the conference. They like to run and get out in transition, but will always have five guys behind the ball on defense regardless of the pace. Some trends to consider. Aggies are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. Southeastern. Aggies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win. The Aggies march on with a dominant performance here against a very tired Florida team. Back Texas A&M. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-11-16 | South Florida +11.5 v. Temple | 62-79 | Loss | -106 | 4 h 56 m | Show | |
USF +11.5 The USF Bulls got a nice win over East Carolina yesterday. Temple has been off for a bit now, and this could be a spot where the Owls are actually at a disadvantage for not having played recently. USF got into a nice rhythm on Thursday. USF and Temple have played two relatively close games this year, and while Temple is a good team, they aren't a team that blows people out very often at all. The Owls offense isn't any good, and South Florida does work hard on the defensive end. USF is close to home here, while Temple is a long way away from home. There is a bit of a homecourt advantage here for the Bulls. While I don't think Temple is going to lose this game, I think this is just too many points to pass up in what should be a low scoring game between two good defensive teams. Some trends to consider. The Owls are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record, are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win, and are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 overall. The Underdog is 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings. Take South Florida. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-10-16 | Texas State v. Georgia State -2.5 | 63-61 | Loss | -106 | 17 h 2 m | Show | |
Georgia State -2.5 The Georgia State Panthers made a tremendous run last year. R.J. Hunter and Ron Hunter were the stars of the opening days in the NCAA Tournament. Georgia State hasn't been even close to that level this year, partially because R.J. Hunter is now in the NBA. Still, this Panthers team has a lot of talent. Georgia State didn't play up to their potential throughout the course of the season, but this is a good spot for them to put forth a good effort. The Panthers showed signs of playing better in their last few games of the season. Additionally, despite Georgia State being so bad throughout the regular season, they did beat Texas State in both meetings. Texas State has a horrible time scoring the basketball, and that plays right into the hands of this Georgia State team. Some trends to consider. Panthers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games after allowing more than 90 points in their previous game. The Panthers put together a nice game in a win or go home spot. Their past experience should help here. Take Georgia State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-10-16 | Alabama v. Ole Miss -2.5 | 81-73 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 32 m | Show | |
Ole Miss Rebels -2.5 The Rebels open up SEC tournament play with the Alabama Crimson Tide and it's Ole Miss who has the major edge here. From the motivation factor, the Rebels have a lot higher will to win here. Ole Miss has grabbed another 20 win season, but despite that, they are really on the outside looking in as far as the tournament is concerned. While a win over Alabama may not be enough still, they would get Kentucky next, which would give them that chance to grab another quality win. Ole Miss also has the leader scorer in the SEC in Stefan Moody. He has been quite the difference maker for this team and really can take a game over. Moody has averaged 23.1 points per game, which ranks 7th in the nation. Look for Sebastian Saiz to be the game changer here. He had a stellar performance against Bama this season as he went for 21 points and 16 rebounds, causing many problems in the paint on both side of the floor. Some trends to consider. Crimson Tide are 0-3-1 ATS in the last 4 meetings. Rebels are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games overall. With the motivation high for Ole Miss and their playmaking ability from both the paint and behind the arc, the Rebels at this low of a line hold plenty of value here. Back Ole Miss. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-10-16 | Bowling Green v. Central Michigan -6 | 62-59 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
Central Michigan -6 The Central Michigan Chippewas are a difficult matchup for the Bowling Green Falcons. Bowling Green can defend the paint just fine, but they aren't good at getting out on shooters. Central Michigan is loaded with all kinds of good shooters. Central Michigan beat Bowling Green easily in both regular season games. While some would say that means this is a spot to Bowling Green, we are looking to back the team that has proven they are much better. The Chippewas had injury concerns for much of the season and that held them back a bit, but they are healthy now and they have a high upside. Bowling Green finished the season in ugly fashion. The Falcons pulled off an upset against Kent State in the first round of the MAC Tournament, but the task will be much tougher against a team with outside shooters as good as Central Michigan's. The Chippewas should run away with this one. A couple trends to back this one. Bowling Green is 2-10 ATS in their last 12 games. Central Michigan is 15-6 ATS in their last 21 vs. Bowling Green. Take Central Michigan. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-09-16 | Jazz v. Warriors -13 | 94-115 | Win | 100 | 13 h 7 m | Show | |
Golden State Warriors -13 The Warriors welcome in the Jazz on Wednesday night and this is the perfect spot for Golden State to really get their swagger back. Golden State hasn't looked themselves over the past two games. After getting routed by the Lakers on Sunday, the Warriors failed to pull away from the Magic the next night at home. While they still managed to grab a win, it wasn't a pure Warriors win like most of them have been. The Jazz come limping into this one as they have lost 6 of their last 7 and 9 of 12 overall. Utah has struggled to find any sort of offense this season as they average just 97 points per game. That certainly doesn't bode well in this spot as they take on a team that averages 115 points per game. This is a prime spot for the Warriors to really get back in a big way. They get a team that struggles to score while they have no problem running up the scoreboard with their 3 point shooting. Some trends to consider.  Jazz are 2-5 ATS in the last 7 meetings. Jazz are 0-4 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Golden State. Golden State handled business by 18 points last time these two teams met and this one could get even uglier. Back Golden State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 9* NBA ATS Play |

03-09-16 | Minnesota v. Illinois -8 | 52-85 | Win | 100 | 14 h 9 m | Show | |
Illinois -8.5 The Illinois Fighting Illini aren't a good team, but they are a lot better than Minnesota, especially Minnesota in the shape that they are in now. Minnesota's Joey King is expected to miss this one with an injury. Minnesota also kicked four key players off the team recently. How has Minnesota been without those key guys? The only game where King and the dismissed players were all missing was at Rutgers. Remember, Rutgers had zero wins in the Big Ten Conference before that game. Rutgers pummeled Minnesota in that game by a score of 75-52. Illinois won at Minnesota earlier this year, and that was when Minnesota was at full strength. The five guys who are missing are with quite a few points to the number here. Some trends to consider. Minnesota is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 neutral site contests. Minnesota is also 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games against Illinois. Take Illinois. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-09-16 | North Texas v. Western Kentucky -7.5 | 76-84 | Win | 100 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
Western Kentucky -7.5 The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers have proven to be a very good tournament team in the past few years. Go back and look and you'll see that Western Kentucky has been at their best in these conference tournaments under Coach Harper. There is no reason to expect anything different here. The North Texas Mean Green were terrible away from home this year. This is a neutral site game that will be played in front of very few people. I'm not sure North Texas is even that motivated for this game. It is a team that seems ready to be done with this disappointing season. Western Kentucky could be a sleeper in this Conference USA Tournament, and the Hilltoppers have the balance needed to take over in this game. Some trends to consider. North Texas is an ugly 3-14 ATS in their last 17 vs. a team with a winning record. North Texas is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 neutral site games. Western Kentucky is 35-16 ATS in their last 51 neutral site games. Take Western Kentucky. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-09-16 | Syracuse +2.5 v. Pittsburgh | 71-72 | Win | 100 | 5 h 2 m | Show | |
Syracuse Orange +2.5 The 8 and 9 seeds get things going in the ACC Tournament as the Syracuse Orange and Pittsburgh Panthers meet on Wednesday afternoon. A lot more than just a chance to advance is on the line as both teams are certainly on the bubble for the NCAA Tournament, meaning a win or loss here can make or break these teams. While both teams really stumbled down the stretch, it was Syracuse who got a lot more production from various players, rather than just 1 or 2 guys. Michael Gbinije earned 2nd team honors in the ACC as he averaged 17.6 points per game and shot 40% from behind the arc. Also stepping up down the stretch of the season was freshman Tyler Lydon. The freshman shot 22 of 39 from the field over the final 4 games of the season, while averaging 15 points. The Orange have a compliment of shooters who can really hit the 3 ball too. They featured 3 players who made 66, 78, and 81 three pointers on the season. Some trends to consider. Orange are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Panthers are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. This one is going to be a solid battle, but it's the Orange who will have the advantage here because of their ability to shoot the 3 and control the paint. Look for them to come away here with a win and advance to the third round. Back Syracuse. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-08-16 | Gonzaga -2 v. St. Mary's | 85-75 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
Gonzaga Bulldogs -2 Gonzaga and St. Mary's meet once again in the Conference Championship and revenge is on the plate for the Bulldogs as they look to avenge two losses to St. Mary's this season. First off, both of those regular season losses for Gonzaga have certainly made them a bubble team. Gonzaga has played extremely well, but failed to grab a much needed resume boosting win when the opportunities came about. That means, to make it 18 straight seasons of participating in the Big Dance, Gonzaga may need to just win the conference here as an at large is sketchy. The good news for Gonzaga? Their offense looked phenomenal against BYU on Monday night. They had their inside and outside game working, which will certainly give them some momentum heading into this one. Kyle Wiltjer will be the difference maker here. He averaged only 9.5 points in the meetings with St. Mary's this season. Wiltjer went 5 for 7 from behind the arc and totaled 29 points in the victory over BYU on Monday. Some trends to consider. Bulldogs are 8-1 ATS in the last 9 meetings. Bulldogs are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 vs. West Coast. Expect Gonzaga to come out for this one really fired up. They know they're a bubble team and with the dominance they've had, especially in this spot, they know it's time to take business into their own hands. Back Gonzaga. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-08-16 | Nets v. Raptors -12 | 99-104 | Loss | -105 | 19 h 55 m | Show | |
Toronto Raptors -12 The Raptors welcome in the Nets on Tuesday night and this is the perfect bounce back spot for them. After blowing an 18 point lead to Houston on Saturday, they get a chance at one of the most unstable defenses in the NBA. Brooklyn has been abysmal this season. The Nets allowed the Timberwolves to shoot 68.4% from the field and conceded 132 points to them in Saturday's loss. The Timberwolves have been very inconsistent on the offensive end, which says a lot about that performance. The Nets will get a Raptors team that is averaging 104.4 points per home game and a team that has gone 23-7 SU. Toronto has also dominated this head to head series. The Raptors have won both meetings this season and won them by an average of 14.5 points. Brooklyn just hasn't had enough on either side of the floor to really keep up with the Raptors for a full game. Some trends to consider. Raptors are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 vs. NBA Atlantic. Nets are 3-10-1 ATS in their last 14 vs. Eastern Conference. With the Raptors right on the Cavs heels in the East, expect them to really come out and send a message against a weak Brooklyn team as they take advantage of the Cavs loss on Monday and pick up another 0.5 game. Back Toronto. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

03-08-16 | Green Bay v. Wright State | 78-69 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
Green Bay Phoenix PK The Horizon League Championship features two underdogs that got through the semi finals and the game opens at a PK. These teams are nearly identical, thus the line opening at a PK, as they both took the home game in the head to head series this season. However, the Phoenix roll in playing better and looking the more impressive of the two teams. Wright State defeated Oakland in the Semis, but they didn't look anything special on the offense end. Despite facing a bad defensive team in Oakland, the Raiders only managed to score 59 points. The Phoenix on the other hand, did go to overtime, but put up 99 points against a very impressive Valpo defense. Had the opponents been flipped, it's fair to say we wouldn't see Wright State in this spot. Green Bay has also been the much better team in terms of ATS. The Phoenix have gone 19-10-2 on the season, while Wright State has flopped going 14-16-1. Some trends to consider. Raiders are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 Tuesday games. Raiders are 1-6 ATS in the third game of a 3-in-5 days situation. Wright State doesn't play well when games are this cluttered together and combine that with the Phoenix length and size, we should see the Raiders really struggle on the offensive side of the ball. With that, expect Wisconsin Green Bay to really control this game, especially in the paint. Back Wisconsin Green Bay. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-07-16 | BYU v. Gonzaga -3 | 84-88 | Win | 100 | 22 h 13 m | Show | |
Gonzaga Bulldogs -3 The Gonzaga Bulldogs get set to take on BYU in the WCC Conference tourney on Monday night. Gonzaga has certainly underachieved this year and is on the bubble right now. Right now, the only way to feel safe is to win the conference and that starts by going through BYU. Gonzaga has won 3 straight games and one of those wins includes a 71-68 victory at BYU. The Bulldogs got things started off in the conference tourney on the right foot with a blowout win over Portland. Gonzaga dominated in every aspect of the game, en route to a 92-67 win. It's actually exactly what the Zags needed as they got their confidence up as they get set for what is likely two very tough match ups, pending a win obviously here first. BYU has played the Zags tough, but this is certainly the time where Gonzaga will step up. They've been notorious for winning this conference and that experience comes into play in games such as these. Some trends to consider. Bulldogs are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 Monday games. Bulldogs are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. West Coast. Look for Gonzaga to use their stellar defense (that allows just 65 points per game) as they really shut down BYU and continue their dominance in the conference tourney with another win, covering the very small number here. Back Gonzaga. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-07-16 | Pepperdine +7 v. St. Mary's | 66-81 | Loss | -111 | 12 h 3 m | Show | |
Pepperdine +7 The Pepperdine Waves beat St. Mary's twice during the regular season and are now a 7 point underdog here on a neutral floor. Of course I realize there's plenty of revenge built up when it comes to St. Mary's wanting this game, but I think that theory has inflated this number. Why wouldn't Pepperdine want this game badly as well? After all, their only chance to get to the NCAA Tournament is to win the West Coast Conference Tournament. The Waves have a well-balanced team that has given St. Mary's trouble with their inside game. Stacy Davis is one of the most underrated players in the country. St. Mary's relies heavily on three-point shooting, and Pepperdine does a good job closing out on shooters. The Gaels struggled in their game against Loyola Marymount before eventually pulling away in the final few minutes. Pepperdine should give them a much tougher test. Some trends to consider. Pepperdine is 33-16-2 ATS in their last 51 vs. a team with a 60% win percentage or higher. The underdog is 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings between these two teams. Take Pepperdine. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* CBB ATS Play |

03-07-16 | Bucks v. Bulls -7 | 90-100 | Win | 100 | 19 h 1 m | Show | |
Chicago Bulls -7 The Bulls welcome in the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday night and it's the home team that holds a lot of value here. Milwaukee will be on the unfortunate end of a back to back after having to deal with Oklahoma City on Sunday. Chicago has fallen back in the Eastern Conference standings and it looked like this team had bottomed out. Then, on Saturday that all changed. Jimmy Butler returned to the lineup and this Chicago team looked completely different. Butler had missed a month, but came back in style by going for 24 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists. It was very evident Butler's presence was not only a difference maker in terms of stats, but it also changed a lot of mentalities around for the Bulls. They looked like a much more confident team with Butler out there. This is a solid spot with them being at home too. The Bucks have been a mess on the road this season. Milwaukee has gone just 8-25 SU on the road and scores only 96 points per game. Things are worse defensively for them as well, as they concede 104 points per road game. Some trends to consider. Bulls are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games. Bulls are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. NBA Central. With the Bucks having to deal with the Thunder on Sunday, coming into this one with tired legs against a rejuvenated Bulls team isn't something they look forward to. Back Chicago. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* NBA ATS Play |

Tampa Bay Lightning -121. The Lightning head into Philadelphia on Monday night and Tampa holds a lot of value here with the line being very low here. The Lightning are on fire right now. They've won 9 straight games and have jumped to the top of the Atlantic Division. The Lightning have everything clicking in terms of offense and defense during this streak as they haven't let anybody stand in their way. Tampa Bay has used the line of Ondrej Palat, Tyler Johnson, and Nikita Kucherov to produce offensively. The Lightning trio has 7 goals over the past 3 games. G Ben Bishop is also on fire right now. The Lightning goalie has won 6 straight games while allowing just 9 goals in that span. Even their back up, Andrei Vasilevskiy continues to dominate as he has gone 9-1 over his last 10. Some trends to consider. Lightning are 7-1 in the last 8 meetings. Lightning are 21-6 in their last 27 overall. At this listed price, the Lightning have plenty of value. They are hot right now and whether it be road or home, it hasn't mattered. Back Tampa Bay. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NHL ML Play |

03-06-16 | Wisconsin +6 v. Purdue | 80-91 | Loss | -106 | 15 h 59 m | Show | |
Wisconsin +6 The Wisconsin Badgers defense is elite this season. Greg Gard deserves a ton of credit for turning this team around this year. When Bo Ryan left in the middle of the season, Wisconsin looked like they were going to have a forgettable season. Instead, Wisconsin went back to the basics and toughened up on the defensive end. Wisconsin is playing that typical style of Badgers basketball that they seemed to get away from for a while. Purdue is a quality team, but their defense has slipped throughout the course of the year. Additionally, the Boilermakers offense does struggle at times when they play against teams with quality post defenders like Wisconsin's. Wisconsin is playing about as well as anyone in the country in the last few games, especially on the defensive end. Some trends to consider. The Badgers are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up win, are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record, and are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. This should be a close one all the way, so I'm happy to grab the six points. Take Wisconsin. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's Sunday 8* CBB ATS Play |

Iona Gaels +1 The semi finals of the MAAC Tournament features Iona vs. Siena and the Gaels hold value here in this one. The teams split the season series as the Gaels won by 6 on the road and fell by 3 at home. This matchup is a very close one as both teams play very similar styles of offense. Where the Gaels have the advantage? Their ball movement is phenomenal and they really never force any shots. The Gaels rank 18th in the nation with 17.0 assists per game. Because of their ball movement, they always find the open guy with one extra pass. This team averages 79.6 points, which is good enough 38th in the country. Look for senior AJ English to be the difference maker here. English averages 22.2 points per game and dominated Siena this season, scoring 63 points in both meetings combined. Some trends to consider. Gaels are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win. Gaels are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a ATS win. Look for English to have another stellar game as the Gaels take down Siena and move on in the MAAC. Back Iona. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* CBB ATS Play |

Dallas Mavericks -3 The Mavericks hexad into Denver on Sunday and it's bounce back time for sure here for Dallas. The Mavericks currently sit in 6th place in the West and missed out on a huge opportunity last time out. The Mavs were 4-1 heading into the final game of their home stand against the lowly Kings, but faltered and missed out on grabbing a 5-1 home stand. When the races are this close, it's vital to win games against sub .500 teams. The good news for the Mavs is that they're getting contributions from a lot of different guys. One of those, Chandler Parsons, is tearing things up right now. Parsons shot 12 of 17 from the field last time out and continues to turn in solid games. They're also getting a lot from David Lee. Since joining the Mavs, Lee has put in 2 double-doubles. As for Denver, they just haven't had it this season. They have gone just 12-19 SU at home and 13-17-1 ATS in that span. Defense has been the biggest issue, as they allow 106 points per game at home on the season. Some trends to consider.  Mavericks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. Mavericks are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 Sunday games. Look for Dallas to bounce back in a big way. They got the better of the two in the last matchup and with a low number here on the road, they are worth the play. Back Dallas. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-06-16 | Temple -6 v. Tulane | 64-56 | Win | 100 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
Temple -6 The Temple Owls are a bubble team that is likely on the outside looking in. Temple cannot afford to lose this game. This is certainly one of those games that could pop their bubble. The Owls aren't going to overlook this Tulane team. Tulane has only one guy who can consistently score on offense (Dabney), and a good defensive team like Temple doesn't often let that one guy beat them. Tulane has shown to not have much of a home court advantage. The attendance at their home games is downright brutal, which makes this place far less scary than most road courts. Some trends to consider. The Owls are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. The Green Wave are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall. Temple is a veteran team led by a good coach, and the Owls have a chance to win the AAC title. Between that and the fact that they are on the bubble, this Temple team is going to play their best basketball on Sunday. Lay the points. Take Temple. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Cincinnati Bearcats -1.5 The Bearcats welcome in the Mustangs for the season finale and it's the home side that holds value. For SMU, the season ends today thanks to their postseason ban. That will certainly cause a distraction as the frustration has to be setting in now for them. Not only are they frustrated, but the lack of focus will cause many problems. The Mustangs have been through all the emotional things with Senior Night. It's basically to the point this team has had it and wants the season to end. On the other side of things Cincinnati has a lot to play for play. The Bearcats can't confirm their entry into the tourney, meaning winning a game like this can solidify their spot. Cincinnati has also been very good at home. The Bearcats have gone 13-3 at home and have really played much better defense, allowing only 63.5 points per game. Some trends to consider. Mustangs are 1-4 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Bearcats are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 home games. Look for Cincinnati to use the Senior Night emotion, along with the motivation to grab another resume building win here. Back Cincinnati. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* CBB ATS Play |

San Antonio -12.5 The Spurs welcome in the Sacramento Kings here and this is not only a let down spot for Sacramento, but also a solid spot with the Spurs being at home. Sacramento comes in off a win in Dallas, which was their first win in 23 tries against the Mavs in Dallas. The Kings are fighting for their lives in the NBA playoff chase, but haven't had the spark to get them going. The Kings downfall has been from the defensive end. They have allowed 110 points per road contest. That doesn't bode well when you're going up against a solid offensive team like the Spurs. San Antonio has been a perfect 29-0 SU at home and have gone 20-9 ATS in that span. They've dominated on both ends of the floor, as they score 106 points per game and allow just 90. The Spurs have taken both meetings this season in blowout fashion and 5 straight in the head to head series. Some trends to consider. Spurs are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. Spurs are 20-6 ATS in their last 26 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Look for San Antonio to really have their way on Saturday night. This team is just too good, especially at home. Back San Antonio. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NBA ATS Play |

Dayton -1.5 The Dayton Flyers have struggled a bit down the stretch, but this is still a team that knows how to win in March. Archie Miller is one of the better coaches in the country, and the Flyers are a team that has peaked at the right time in the past few seasons. This game is a really important one for Dayton. Dayton is just one game behind VCU for the Atlantic 10 lead, and they get to host the VCU Rams in this regular season finale. Obviously, they'd love to grab a share of the conference title. In addition, they need to get some momentum going as they head into the most important part of the season. Kendall Pollard is back in the lineup for Dayton, and that is extremely important. VCU is a quality team, but they are walking into a tough spot here. Take Dayton. Good Luck, Razor Ray. |

Cal -3.5 The Cal Golden Bears are playing some tremendous basketball down the stretch. Cal has two potential lottery draft picks in Jaylen Brown and Ivan Rabb. I would consider Brown a sure thing type of prospect with his strength and great finishing ability around the rim. It took some time for the team chemistry to come around at Cal, but things are going great at the right time of the year. The Arizona State Sun Devils have played hard for Coach Hurley this year, but this team is just overmatched when playing against the most talented teams in the league, and they are definitely up against one of the most talented teams in the league here. Arizona State will put forth the effort here, but I don't expect that to be enough. A few important betting trends to consider in this one. The Cal Golden Bears are a perfect 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games, and are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games at Arizona State. Arizona State is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 following a win. Take Cal. |

03-05-16 | Predators -130 v. Avalanche | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 55 m | Show | |
Nashville Predators ML The Predators head into Colorado on Saturday night and the visitors hold a lot of value here. Nashville comes in holding an advantage over Minnesota and Colorado, along with an 11 point streak. Revenge also holds a solid factor here. The Predators have dropped 3 of 4 overall to Colorado and both meetings this season. Nashville has been unstable all year long, but they realistically have figured things out. This team has gone on that 11 game point streak, as they have produced both offensively and defensively. Nashville has also been a very respectable road team. The Preds have gone 15-11-6-0 away from home this season. Nashville was once one of the worst team's in the NHL in terms of offense, but this team has really stepped it up and figured things out. Winning head to head games like this against teams they're going against is extremely important for the Preds. Some trends to consider. Predators are 4-0 in their last 4 road games. Predators are 5-1 in they'r last 6 overall. At this price, expect Nashville to really come out here and play well. With the play of Pekka Rinne lately too, they have things clicking. Back Nashville ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-05-16 | LSU v. Kentucky -13 | 77-94 | Win | 100 | 11 h 47 m | Show | |
Kentucky -13 The Kentucky Wildcats went to Baton Rouge and got thumped early in the SEC season. You better believe this Wildcats team or their coach didn't forget that one. Kentucky is playing much better than they were at that time, while LSU skids into this game with all sorts of issues. Kentucky is in a great revenge spot here. It doesn't hurt that Kentucky is also tied with Texas A&M for the lead in the SEC standings with one regular season game to go here. Kentucky definitely wants at least a share of that title, and in order to get it they'll need to win here. In their last two SEC road games, LSU lost by 16 in Tennessee and 20 at Arkansas. Those two teams don't even come close to having the talent this Kentucky team has this season. A few betting trends to consider for this game. LSU is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games. LSU is 3-8 ATS in their last 11 vs. a team with a winning record. Kentucky is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games. Take Kentucky. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-04-16 | The Citadel v. Mercer OVER 169.5 | 69-71 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 33 m | Show | |
Citadel vs. Mercer Over Two teams out of the Southern Conference tip things off in the conference tournament on Friday night. Both teams like to get out and push the ball, making this over a very nice, valuable play here. Both teams played to the over this season. Citadel went 15-7 and while their counter parts in Mercer weren't too far behind at 15-11. Mercer took both of the head to head meetings in the regular season and both games were high scoring. 91-80 and 88-72 both went to Mercer, but it shows the lack of defense both teams play. In both contests, Mercer and Citadel pushed the issued and really tried to get out in transition. With their seasons on the line today, expect a lot of fast paced action here. The key here is Citadel. On the season, they averaged 84 points per game, while conceding 95. They bring out the best in team's in terms of their offense and Citadel can certainly keep up with the pace. Some trends to consider. Over is 6-1 in Bears last 7 vs. Southern. Over is 5-1 in Bears last 6 games following a straight up loss. Look for a lot of points in this one. Both teams have been over teams this season and this one should be no different, especially with seasons on the line. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* CBB O/U Play |

03-04-16 | Eastern Michigan v. Toledo -7.5 | 79-75 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 58 m | Show | |
Toledo -7.5 The Toledo Rockets are a better team than the Eastern Michigan Eagles. Toledo will be working hard to both finish the regular season with a win on their home floor and build some momentum going into the MAC Tournament. Eastern Michigan hasn't been competitive on the road inside the MAC. Eastern Michigan has not lost a road game by less than 8 points since the middle of January. They have lost their last two road contests by scores of 86-64 and 115-79. It's been ugly. Toledo has an efficient offense with Nathan Boothe down low and several good shooters on the outside as well. The Rockets have the potential to hurt teams that play zone too much, and Eastern Michigan plays a zone all the time. Some trends to consider. Eastern Michigan is 4-10 ATS in their last 14 following a win, are 7-20 ATS in their 27 road games, and are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games at Toledo. Â Eastern Michigan will likely be content to get this game over with and get into the conference tournament. Take Toledo. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's Friday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-03-16 | Connecticut v. SMU -5 | 54-80 | Win | 100 | 19 h 50 m | Show | |
SMU Mustangs -5 The Mustangs welcome in the UConn Huskies on Thursday night and the Mustangs hold plenty of value here considering the factors. First factor, revenge. Connecticut took SMU down back on 2/18 68-62. In the game, the Huskies got a lot of calls to go their way and it was really a game that could have gone either way, but some there was a lot of missed opportunities down the stretch for SMU. Second factor, Senior Night. Nic Moore headlines Senior Night as he will play his last game at home. Moore has played through many injuries and has been the go to guy for the Mustangs, especially late in games. Third factor, motivation. SMU has a post season ban on them, but this Mustangs team is currently tied with Temple for 1st. It would be perfect for SMU to send a message and win the regular season title. This team wants to do just that and really prove they are the real deal. Some trends to consider. Mustangs are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. Huskies are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. Back SMU.

Pittsburgh Penguins -135 Revenge is the name of the game here as the Pittsburgh Penguins welcome in the New York Rangers on Thursday night. Pittsburgh holds solid value here as they look to continue their winning ways, while getting back at the Rangers a bit here at home. The Rangers came into Pittsburgh and took them down 3-0 last month. Pittsburgh hasn't forgotten that game and holds a very solid advantage by being at home. Pittsburgh has gone 19-9-1-3 on their home ice. On the other side of things, the Rangers are just 14-14-1-2 on the road. They struggle with their defense as they allow 2.77 GA while the Pens put in over 3 goals per home contest. Penguins G Marc-Andre Fleury has also dominated at home. He's gone 17-6-2 and has added 4 shutouts to his credit. Some trends to consider. Penguins are 9-2 in their last 11 home games. Penguins are 7-2 in their last 9 games playing on 1 days rest. Expect Pittsburgh to really come out fired up for this one, as they grab a home win, along with a little payback. Back Pittsburgh -135. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* NHL ML Play |

03-03-16 | Louisiana Tech v. Marshall -4.5 | 97-94 | Loss | -117 | 17 h 42 m | Show | |
Marshall -4.5 The Marshall Thundering Herd have been playing some tremendous basketball on their home floor in the past couple months. This is a team that was dinged up early in the season, and they started very slowly, but they have been dominating opponents in recent weeks. Marshall has only lost one game at home inside Conference USA. The rest of their home games have not only been winners though, they have been easy winners. Marshall hasn't won a game at home inside the conference by less than 15 points! The Thundering Herd have a star in James Kelly, and I don't think Louisiana Tech has anyone who can shut him down. Marshall is averaging 85 points per game on the year, and the Thundering Herd have a far more consistent offense than does Louisiana Tech. Louisiana Tech has lost two of their last three road games. Those losses were against UTEP and North Texas. Neither of those teams are any good, and Marshall is a huge step up from those teams. Some trends to consider. Marshall is 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 home games. Marshall is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 following a loss. LA Tech is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games against a team with a winning home record. Take Marshall. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* CBB ATS Play |

03-02-16 | Oregon State v. USC -5.5 | 70-81 | Win | 100 | 13 h 25 m | Show | |
USC Trojans -5.5 The Trojans welcome in the Oregon State Beavers on Wednesday night and this one offers a lot of value on the home side. USC has been nearly flawless at home this season. The Trojans have gone 15-1 at home and have dominated Oregon State in Southern Cal. The Trojans have gone 20-4 over the last 24 meetings between these two teams inside the Galen Center. This is also a case where USC must grab a win for their tournament status. It's fair to say two 6th place teams in the Pac-12 are on the bubble. Separating them from the Beavers is extremely important here and the home court advantage is a giant plus for USC. Oregon State has also been kind of a flop on the road. They are only 3-6 SU away from home and are getting outscored by an average of 72-66. Some trends to consider. Trojans are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points. Trojans are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games. USC has outscored the opposition at home by an average of 15 points. Look for them to separate themselves from Oregon State here and grab a giant home win. Back USC -5.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

03-02-16 | Thunder v. Clippers -1 | 98-103 | Win | 100 | 23 h 10 m | Show | |
Los Angeles Clippers -1 The Thunder and Clippers will certainly be the center of attention here on Wednesday night as the two teams meet with a lot on the line. The Clippers lay just 1 point and with them being at home, this is a solid spot and number to back them at. The door is wide open for Los Angeles right now to make a serious push at the Thunder in the 3rd spot in the West. Oklahoma City stumbled up a bit over the past week, while the Clippers went on a winning streak, which brought the teams within just 2.5 games of each other. The difference for the Clippers and where they have an advantage here is with Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan. Looking at Paul first, he's recorded 4 straight double doubles. Paul had 23 points and 12 assists in the team's latest win over Brooklyn, as he continues to contribute in both stat categories. DeAndre Jordan continues to dominate the boards. He will cause a lot of problems for a Thunder team that really doesn't have a true center that can step up and stop him. Some trends to consider.  Clippers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Clippers are 13-3-2 ATS in their last 18 games following a ATS loss. The Clippers know the door is open and expect them to take advantage of home court here and grab a win on Wednesday. Back Los Angeles -1. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Wednesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

03-01-16 | Magic v. Mavs -4.5 | 108-121 | Win | 100 | 11 h 15 m | Show | |
Dallas Mavericks -4.5 The Mavs welcome in the Magic here on Tuesday night and Dallas holds a lot of value considering the struggles Orlando has had recently. The Magic haven't been the same team from earlier this season. They have completely fallen off, as their 6 games under the .500 mark. This is a revenge spot certainly for Dallas. The last time these two teams met, the Magic erased a 9 point deficit and eventually won the game in overtime. Dallas has played much better of the two since that game and have won back to back games as they currently sit in 6th in the Western Conference. Dallas has also been a very solid home team. They've gone 18-12 this season, while going 19-11 ATS. They have a solid compliment of an outside and inside game, which comes from their depth and having so many people contribute. Some trends to consider. Mavericks are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. Mavericks are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Look for Dallas to really get a bit of payback here, along with grabbing a much needed home win here on Tuesday. Back Dallas -4.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

03-01-16 | Baylor v. Oklahoma -7.5 | 71-73 | Loss | -106 | 18 h 37 m | Show | |
Oklahoma -7.5 The Oklahoma Sooners haven't been playing all that well in the last few games, but this is a tremendously talented team that is very capable of big things in March. Maybe most importantly is the fact that they are led by arguably the nation's best player: Buddy Hield. Hield is a senior who will be playing his final home game in Norman on Tuesday night. Expect him to bring his best for this one. Hield has shown all year that he has an amazing competitive spirit, and the Sooners star is very capable of carrying his team to a big victory here. Baylor lost by 10 at home against Oklahoma earlier this year. The Bears also lost by 10 points at Oklahoma last season. The Bears aren't quite the team they were last season, while Oklahoma is much better on both ends of the floor. Some trends to consider. Baylor is 9-24-2 ATS in the last 35 meetings between these two teams. Baylor is 1-6 ATS following a straight up win. Baylor is 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 vs. a team with a winning record. Take Oklahoma. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 7* CBB ATS Play. |

St. Louis Blues -115 The Blues head into Ottawa on Tuesday night and the visitors open at a solid price, giving them plenty of value. The Blues come in off an impressive 5-2 win over Carolina, which marked their 5th road win in 6 tries. This Blues team has consistently been hot on the road, as they've gone 17-9-2-3 which is certainly in the top tier in the NHL. St. Louis also has a legit chance within the Central Division. They have had the unfortunate situation of being in the same division as the Blackhawks and Stars, two of the top teams in the NHL. However, they are right there in the race, which is a very motivational factor here. Some trends to consider. Blues are 5-0 in their last 5 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Blues are 7-1 in their last 8 Tuesday games. Blues are 6-1 in their last 7 vs. Eastern Conference. At this price, the Blues are extremely valuable. They are a much better team and playing on the road has simply not been a factor for them. This team gives up just 2.38 goals against per game. The opposition just never has a chance to counter against the Blues D and goal scoring opportunities are very rare. Back St. Louis -115. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL ML Play |

03-01-16 | Dayton v. Richmond | 85-84 | Win | 100 | 17 h 19 m | Show | |
Dayton ATS The Dayton Flyers are a better team than they have shown in their last few games. Dayton will be eager to show that in this contest. This Flyers team is led by one of the better coaches in the country in Archie Miller. Dayton knows how to win big games on the road. Dayton already won at Vanderbilt earlier this year, and they won at Rhode Island a few weeks ago as well. This line is a clear overreaction to what has been seen most recently. Dayton has had some disappointing showings, but those were mostly in spots where they were the favorite and at home. Additionally, the Flyers weren't healthy in many of those losses. Now, Dayton goes to take on a flawed Richmond team. The Spiders have already lost five games inside the Atlantic 10 on their home floor. Some trends to consider. Richmond is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games. The Spiders are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 vs. a team with a win percentage of 60% or higher. Dayton has the much better defense and that should matter a lot in what will likely be a close game. Take Dayton. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 9* CBB ATS Play |

03-01-16 | Bowling Green v. Kent State -5.5 | 54-70 | Win | 100 | 17 h 3 m | Show | |
Kent State -5.5 The Golden Flashes and Bowling Green Falcons get set for a battle inside the MAC Center in Kent, Ohio on Tuesday night. There are a lot of factors that play into why Kent State has plenty of value. From the emotional aspect, it's Senior Night for Kent. Kent State will send off Khaliq Spicer and Chris Ortiz, two crucial parts to this team. The motivation to have them finish their careers at the MAC Center with a win is certainly there, especially for 2 players who have been very important to this team for 4 years. Kent is also in a very big must win situation. To secure a for sure bye to the Q for the MAC Tournament, Kent will need to beat Bowling Green and Akron. The home/away factor plays a giant role here too. Bowling Green is just 6-7 away from home while the Golden Flashes have gone 12-2. Kent's offense has really gotten it going in front of their home crowd, scoring 78 points per game. Kent State also has PG Jaylin Walker back. Walker, who was injured about half way through the season, left Kent very thin at the guard position. He got a game to shake off the rust and should be really full speed here in this one. Some trends to consider. Falcons are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 vs. Mid-American. Falcons are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Bowling Green has just been bad as of late. Kent State beat Bowling Green in BG already this season and really dominated inside. Expect Kent to do the same thing here, as they have such a much better paint presence, that outmatches the Falcons big time here. Back Kent State -5.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* CBB ATS Play |

02-29-16 | Thunder -7 v. Kings | 131-116 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
Oklahoma City Thunder -7 The Thunder head into Sacramento as they continue their 4 game road trip and they hold solid value in this bounce back spot. The Thunder took to national TV on Saturday night against the Warriors and hand the game essentially won. However, they coughed the ball up with just seconds to go and saw Golden State tie it, then win it with a ridiculous Steph Curry three pointer in overtime. Here is a spot where they get a struggling Kings team, that they've had a ton of success against. The Thunder are 23-5 against the Kings and Sacramento comes into this one limping in, losing back to back games to fall into 10th place. Sacramento could also receive bad news in terms of Rajon Rondo, who is battling a thumb injury. He will be a game time decision, but even if he does play, he certainly won't be 100%. This will force somebody to step up and guard Westbrook, which will likely be too much to handle. Some trends to consider. Kings are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss. Kings are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss. Oklahoma City now has their sights on just holding off the Clippers for the 3rd spot. Expect them to really bring it against Sacramento, as they handle them in this spot on Monday. Back Oklahoma City -7. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 8* NBA ATS Play |

Kansas Jayhawks -1.5 The Jayhawks head into Texas on Monday night and lay a low number here, making them very valuable. Don't get it twisted, Texas is no pushover by any means. In fact, they do come in off a win that actually helped Kanas as they defeated No. 4 Oklahoma. The issue here is they run into a very hot Kansas Jayhawks team. Kansas has won 9 in a row and has clinched at least a share of the Big 12 title. Kansas now looks to grab the crown outright, which could be just what they need to get the overall number 1 seed. With the top teams in the nation falling, the door is wide open for Kansas to jump to #1. Kansas has also had plenty success against the Longhorns. They've won 9 of the pst 10 meetings and are 26-8 all time. They took care of business at home this season in a 76-67 win. Some trends to consider. Jayhawks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Jayhawks are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games overall. Look for Kansas to really push the issue here as this team is hot right now and doesn't want any blemishes or slip ups down the stretch. Back Kansas -1.5. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Indiana Pacers ATS The Pacers take on the Trail Blazers Sunday night and they look for bounce back game here. With holding home court advantage, Indiana holds plenty of value here. The home/away discrepancy is too big to ignore. The Pacers have gone 18-10 at home, while the Blazers have gone just 11-16 on the road. Both teams play noticeably different in the given situation as Portland is a much worse defensive team on the road (102 points against) and Indiana is much better defensive team at home (98.6 points against). Rodney Stuckey returned last game to bolster the bench and while he played just 15 minutes, he should have the rust shaken off and be ready to go for the long haul today. Given that, he will have a much larger impact on the game, that will greatly benefit the Pacers. The difference maker here will be Paul George. The F has been on a tear lately, making at least 10 field goals in three straight games. In a game of this importance, look for him to really step up and deliver on Sunday. Trends to consider. Pacers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss.Pacers are 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 Sunday games. Look for the Pacers to really come out with a purpose here and take it to the Trail Blazers on Sunday night. Back Indiana ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 8* NBA ATS Play |

St. Louis Blues ML The Blues head into Carolina on Sunday and after getting shutout in Nashville on Saturday, this is the solid spot to get back into the win column. Carolina comes into this one scuffling, losing back to back games and completely looking lost on offense. The Hurricanes have scored just 1 goal in each game, as this has been a reoccurring problem this season for a team that averages just 2.43 goals per game. To make matters worse for the Canes, they'll be going up against one of the best in the league in terms of defense. St. Louis has allowed just 2.39 goals per game on the season. The Blues have been one of the best road teams as well in the NHL. St. Louis has gone 16-9-2-3 away from home and hasn't allowed losses snowball into something more. That's been the biggest key for them, avoiding long losing streaks. Some trends to consider. Blues are 4-0 in their last 4 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Blues are 5-1 in their last 6 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. Look for St. Louis to come out really fired up for this one and handle business on Sunday. Back St. Louis ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 7* NHL ML Play |

Wisconsin Green Bay +6 The Wisconsin Green Bay Phoenix are a clear underdog at home here against Valparaiso. Let's be clear first of all: this Valparaiso team is excellent. They are the real deal. Why do I want to fade them here? This game means almost nothing to the Crusaders. Valparaiso is locked into the first spot in the Horizon League Conference Tournament. The Crusaders don't have any real reason to be too terribly motivated here. They want to win to help their potential NCAA Tournament seed, but they shouldn't have the same killer instinct they normally do. Wisconsin Green Bay was quite competitive for much of the game earlier this year at Valparaiso. The Phoenix are playing their home finale here, and this game will mean a lot more to them. They clearly aren't as good of a team as Valparaiso, but this is a lot of points to get with a good home team that can score in bunches. Some trends to consider. Crusaders are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record, and are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win. The Phoenix are 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 home games. We'll side with the more motivated home underdog. Take Wisconsin Green Bay. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's Sunday 8* CBB ATS Play |

Vanderbilt +2.0 The Kentucky Wildcats have been inconsistent this year. That is to be expected from a really young team like the Wildcats. Vanderbilt hasn't played even close to their potential for much of the year, but the Commodores are very capable of big things. They scratched the surface by beating Florida in their last game, and that gives them significant momentum heading into this game. Vanderbilt has long had one of the most underrated home court advantages in college basketball. Vanderbilt's defense is excellent. In fact, they are only allowing opponents to shoot a miserable 28 percent from 3 point range on the season. Some trends to consider. Wildcats are 1-6-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Underdog is 6-1-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Kentucky is a good team with a good coach, but they aren't the same elite team they have been the past couple seasons. Vanderbilt isn't at the big talent disadvantage that they have been in the past. The Commodores are on the bubble and they need a big win here. Take Vanderbilt. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's Saturday 7* CBB ATS Play |

St. Louis Blues ML The Blues head into Nashville on Saturday and we have an over adjustment here, making the Blues very valuable. St. Louis is a much better team and certainly have the value here plus money. St. Louis comes in 35-19-5-4 overall and they've been stellar on the road going 16-8-2-3, which is one of the best road records in the NHL. So why is the price overvalued here? Yes, Nashville has been hot, but this team has struggled when it's mattered the most. They have beaten the sub .500 teams, but when it comes to good teams, they simply have struggled when they need a win. St. Louis has also dominated the head to head portion of this series. They bring in a 5 game winning streak here, with the most latest win coming back on 2/2 on the road in a 1-0 fashion. Blues are 4-0 in their last 4 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game.Blues are 4-0 in their last 4 road games. In this particular spot, it's worth a look on St. Louis. This Blues team is one of the best in the NHL and this is a solid bounce back spot, especially considering how good they've been head to head. Back St. Louis ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Northwestern -18.5 The Rutgers Scarlet Knights have been getting beaten up by everyone they have played this year. Rutgers just isn't a competitive team in the Big Ten. Now, they are playing without their star freshman Corey Sanders (suspension). Without him, this team is a disaster. Northwestern has a chance for a 20 win season, and the Wildcats are better than their Big Ten record would indicate. The Big Ten is a very tough conference this year, and there are only two really weak teams at the bottom of the conference. The first is Minnesota and the second (and by far worst team) is Rutgers. Northwestern beat Minnesota by 24 and 25 points already this year. The Wildcats have sustained several close losses of late, and I think they'll take their frustration out on this Rutgers team that is short-handed and ready to be done with the season. Some trends to consider. Wildcats are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400.Wildcats are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

02-27-16 | Arizona v. Utah -3.5 | 64-70 | Win | 100 | 4 h 46 m | Show | |
Utah -3.5 The Utah Utes have a tremendous homecourt advantage. Utah had a virtual walkover on Thursday night when Arizona State laid down and lost by more than 30 points in Utah. The Utes are well rested here. Arizona comes into this one off of a loss at Boulder against the Buffaloes of Colorado. Colorado is a quality team, but more importantly is the fact that game was played at elevation. That can be hard for teams like Arizona to deal with. What makes that so important? Well, this game will be played at elevation as well in Utah, so two straight games in that tough environment. Arizona is a good team, but they aren't as good as they have been in the past few seasons. They have a good offense and a decent defense rather than the superb defense we are used to them having. Some trends to consider. The Utes are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up win, are 24-9 ATS in their last 33 Saturday games and are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 vs. Pac12. Utah's an underrated team who is playing well now. Take Utah. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's 8* Saturday CBB ATS Play |

02-26-16 | Grizzlies -4 v. Lakers | 112-95 | Win | 100 | 22 h 55 m | Show | |
Memphis Grizzlies ATS The Grizzlies head into Los Angeles for the 2nd leg of a home and home as they look to sweep it. Memphis opens as a slim road favorite, making them very valuable here. The line is cut in half from the meeting on Wednesday when Memphis took down Los Angeles as -8 favorites. Memphis cashed for us then and this is a solid spot to back them again as the Lakers haven't used home court advantage at all this season. Los Angeles as gone just 6-19 SU and have gotten outscored by an average of 104-96. Memphis learned that Marc Gasol would be out for the remainder of the season and they adjusted their offense completely to fix their current system. Without Gasol, the Grizzlies aren't as dominant in the paint anymore. They have switched to the fast paced style without using much clock and it benefited in the win over the Lakers on Wednesday as they put up 128 points. The new style benefits not just the starters, but also the bench. Matt Barnes turned in one his best performances of the season against LA as he went for 25 points. Grizzlies are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400.Grizzlies are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Memphis is in the midst of a playoff run while the Lakers continue another losing streak. With home court not playing any advantage here, look for Memphis to use that high tempo offense to run wild on Friday as they cover the number. Memphis Grizzlies ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NBA ATS Play |

02-26-16 | Detroit v. Oakland OVER 184 | 97-108 | Win | 100 | 10 h 24 m | Show | |
Detroit vs. Oakland Over The Horizon League is featured on Friday night with the Detroit Titans and Oakland Golden Grizzlies going at it. Even with a high total listed, both of these teams have had no problem this year scoring and reach high point totals, making this one very valuable. It's very rare to find two teams in a mid major conference as good as these two in terms of field goal percentage.The Golden Grizzlies have shot 46% from the field this season and averages over 63 shots per game. Detroit is shooting the same 46% from the field and get up over 61 shots per game. These two teams will not use the shot clock as they like to get up and down the floor and jack up shots. Both teams have been profitable to the over as well. Detroit has gone 8-5 to the over on the road while Oakland has gone 15-10 overall to the over this season. There has also been zero defense when it comes to these two teams. Detroit concedes 87 points per game, while Oakland is right there with 82. Both Detroit and Oakland have given up those kinds of numbers to lower tier teams as well, which means when they run into fast paced, high scoring teams like this, things could get very ugly. Over is 13-0 in Golden Grizzlies last 13 home games following three or more consecutive road games.Over is 4-1 in Golden Grizzlies last 5 overall. This one is going to be fun to watch. Up and down action with a lot of buckets from both inside and out. Don't be scared of that big number. Both teams have the ability to hit 100 points in this one. Back the over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* CBB O/U Play |

02-25-16 | Senators v. Canucks -105 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
Vancouver Canucks ML The Canucks welcome in the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night and the home team at a PK price holds a lot of value here. The Canucks haven't been an all that bad team this season. This team is where they are at because of one really long losing streak that knocked them down further and further in the standings. Despite the fact they are in 11th, the Canucks still aren't out of the playoff race. They trail Colorado by 10 points and still have 4 games in hand against them. Winning games like this and taking out Colorado when they get their chance still hasn't put them out of it by any means. Vancouver got back into the win column last time out against the Avalanche, as they kicked off a 5 game home-stand in a 5-1 route. This Canucks team will go as far as G Ryan Miller will take them. Miller turned in a 37 save performance and will need a similar feat here. Ottawa has been a bad road team this season going just 12-16-1-1 away from home. Along with that, they've dropped 6 of their last 7 in Vancouver. Senators are 4-11 in the last 15 meetings.Senators are 1-6 in the last 7 meetings in Vancouver. This head to head series is dominated by the Canucks and with them being at home, coming off a win, they are certainly valuable at the price here. Back Vancouver ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

02-25-16 | UCLA v. California -7 | 63-75 | Win | 100 | 21 h 19 m | Show | |
California Golden Bears ATS The Pac-12 is featured Thursday night as the UCLA Bruins and California Golden Bears go at it. The home team lays 7 here, which gives them a lot of value here. California is hot right now as they have skyrocketed right into the Pac-12 race as they sit in 4th, just 1 game out. The Golden Bears have won 5 straight and get the Bruins at home here, where teams haven't had any success this season. Cal has gone 16-0 at home this season and has paid off for bettors going 11-5 ATS. The Golden Bears are outscoring their opposition on their home floor 78.4 to 62.6. As for the Bruins, this team has been the most disappointing team in the Pac-12 and is likely destined for the NIT unless they can pull off an epic run in the Pac-12 tournament. UCLA is just 4-8 ATS on the road this season and hasn't had any success against Cal lately. The Golden Bears have taken 4 of the last 5 in this series. Bruins are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings in California.Golden Bears are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games. Roll with the home team here. This Cal team is just completely unstoppable at home and with a chance at a Pac-12 Title, they certainly will bring their A game here. Back California ATS.

02-25-16 | Islanders v. Flames OVER 5.5 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 10 m | Show | |
New York Islanders vs. Calgary Flames Over The Islanders and Flames meet Thursday night and we get two very fast paced teams, which makes the over a very lucrative bet. Both of these teams have proven this year they have the ability to find the back of the net in bunches. New York has a solid veteran group that plays smart and can strike at any moment while the Flames use their youth to really push the tempo. The Islanders have averaged 2.83 goals per game, with the Flames putting in 3.07 per home game. Both teams concede a lot as well. While New York gives up over 2.5 per game, the Flames are seeing the opposition score 3.05 per game. It also doesn't help out their cause that starting goalie Karri Ramo is OUT for the remainder of the season. They are now onto their backups, which spells a lot of trouble for them. Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Calgary.Over is 5-2 in Islanders last 7 vs. Western Conference. This will be a very fast paced game with both teams really attacking the net, making this game an over one tonight. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NHL O/U Play |

02-25-16 | North Dakota State v. South Dakota State -10 | 59-71 | Win | 100 | 13 h 55 m | Show | |
South Dakota State -10 The South Dakota State Jackrabbits have the highest upside of any team in the Summit League. South Dakota State wasn't healthy through much of the middle of the season, and they lost several games during that time. Now that they are healthy, they are looking like the best team in the league once again. North Dakota State took advantage of South Dakota State's injury issues earlier this year. The Bison now have injury problems of their own with Paul Miller missing the past few weeks with an injury. He is questionable for this game. North Dakota State doesn't have a high powered offense to start with, and with Miller either gimpy or not playing at all, it's hard to see them keeping up with South Dakota State on the road. Also, South Dakota State is just a game back in the Summit League standings, and they badly need this game. North Dakota State is just getting ready for the conference tournament. Some trends to consider. The Bison are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a ATS loss, and the Jackrabbits are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up win. Take South Dakota State. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CBB ATS Play |

02-24-16 | Arizona v. Colorado +5.5 | 72-75 | Win | 100 | 11 h 3 m | Show | |
Colorado Buffaloes ATS The Pac-12 features a key matchup for both teams as Arizona and Colorado go at it in Boulder on Wednesday night. The home team catches points here, which makes them very valuable considering the circumstances. First off, looking at Colorado, this team is certainly on the bubble. They had their chance to make a push at the top of the Pac-12, but they came up flat in their California trip, losing to USC and UCLA. With that, they've came back down to the middle of the pack, which doesn't look good for any team trying to impress the committee. Arizona does come into this one winning 6 in a row, but this will be their first road game in nearly 3 weeks. They are just 4-3 on the road as they really play a different styled game when they're away from home. With them experiencing a road game for the first time in a while, going into Boulder is certainly not ideal. Colorado is 14-1 SU there and has won 8 straight there. It's been notoriously a tough place to play for opponents and with Colorado having a chance to add a win over the #9 team in the nation to their resume, this is a spot where they will certainly try to steal this game behind the home crowd. Buffaloes are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games.Buffaloes are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points. Go with the home team here. Colorado has a real chance to bolster their resume and with them having so much success at home, this is one they will really be up for. Back Colorado ATS.

02-24-16 | Lakers v. Grizzlies -8 | 119-128 | Win | 100 | 10 h 25 m | Show | |
Memphis Grizzlies ATS The Grizzlies continue their pursuit in the Western Conference as they get set to take on the Lakers in a home and home, beginning in Memphis Wednesday night. The Grizzlies lay a relatively lower number here, making them valuable. Los Angeles has dropped 6 straight games overall and brings in one of the worst road records in the NBA as they sit at just 5-28. They've conceded 109.1 points per game compared to just the 98.0 they've scored. As for Memphis, this team has gotten themselves into playoff contention with their home play. They are 20-9 overall and have held teams to just 99.1 points on the season. They've also dominated the head to head with Los Angeles. Memphis has won 7 straight against the Lakers, which includes a 112-96 win in Memphis the last time these two teams met. The Grizzlies have handled the lower teams in the NBA, going 25-4 SU and 18-10-1 ATS against under .500 teams. Grizzlies are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss.Grizzlies are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. Memphis has continuously bounced back from losses and this is one of those cases here, as they should have no problem handling the Lakers here today. Back Memphis ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

02-24-16 | Northwestern v. Michigan -7 | 63-72 | Win | 100 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
Michigan Wolverines ATS The Wolverines welcome in Northwestern on Wednesday night and this is an absolute must win spot for them. Michigan is considered a bubble team right now and while they won't impress the committee as much with just a small win over Northwestern, a big win will certainly look good to add to their resume. This is also a spot where Michigan can take nothing for granted. A loss to the Wildcats adds one of those "bad losses" to their resume, which could really hurt them come selection time. Michigan has gone 12-3 SU at home this season and got a giant win last time out over Purdue, in a game where their defense held the Boilermakers to just 56 points. Northwestern has been struggling as well. They've won just 2 times in their last 9 games, both coming against the bottom teams in the Big 10, at home. They've dropped 5 straight on the road, losing by an average of over 10 points in all 5 meetings. They also have had zero luck in Michigan, losing 5 straight there as well. Wildcats are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 vs. Big Ten.Wildcats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss. There just hasn't been anything there for Northwestern as of late. With Michigan really on the bubble, this is game they can use to win by a large margin and grab a bonus win to add to their resume under the "impressive" category. Back Michigan ATS.

02-23-16 | Senators v. Oilers -115 | 4-1 | Loss | -115 | 19 h 21 m | Show | |
Edmonton Oilers ML The Oilers welcome in the Senators on Tuesday night with the game essentially opening at a pick price, giving the home team value here. Why the pick line here? Ottawa has played well as of late and the Oilers struggled on their current home-stand. However, the Oilers have been a very respectable team at home this season and with them heading out on the road for a while after this one, giving their home fans a solid showing, along with grabbing some momentum for the road is a must. Edmonton is 15-13-1-1 at home this season and have put in 2.77 goals for in their home tenure. Ottawa has really struggled on the road, going just 11-16-1-1. The Senators have lost plenty of games on the defensive end, as they concede over 3.5 goals per road game. Edmonton got the better of the 2 when these teams met back on 2/4 as they routed Ottawa 7-2. Senators are 1-4 in their last 5 Tuesday games.Senators are 3-13 in their last 16 road games. The Senators should not be this good of a price on the road. They're a struggle away from home and when you concede 3.5 goals per game, you're not going to win much. Grab the home team in Edmonton here as they finished the home-stand off with a win and gain some steam heading out on the road. Back Edmonton Oilers ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NHL ML Play |

02-23-16 | Rockets v. Jazz -5 | 114-117 | Loss | -104 | 11 h 29 m | Show | |
Utah Jazz ATS The Jazz welcome in the Rockets for a crucial Western Conference showdown with a lot on the line here. Revenge and tie breaking scenarios are motivation for the Jazz here, making them valuable. Utah has dropped both meetings to Houston this season. A loss here would give the Rockets the tie breaker head to head, which could become very costly for Utah down the road. Currently, it's these two teams, along with Portland, fighting for the 7 and 8 seeds. It's the Jazz that sit 0.5 game out, behind the Rockets. Utah cannot afford to lose the tie breaking scenario as it essentially puts them an extra game behind Houston. While Houston did take the first two meetings this season, Utah was with without Derrick Favors and had an injured Rudy Gobert in one of the games. Favors has made all the difference in the world since returning from injury. He led the Jazz to a winning streak that got them back into the race prior to the All Star break and has averaged 21.3 points over the past four games. As for Gobert, he missed the first meeting and played in just 15 minutes in the 2nd meeting. His presence in the paint alone is important, especially when the Rockets have a player like Dwight Howard. Jazz are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 home games.Rockets are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 vs. NBA Northwest. The Rockets are a different team on the road and the Jazz have done a nice job protecting their house. Look for Utah to use the home court, along with Favors and Gobert, to get some revenge and grab a convincing win over Houston here. Back Utah ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Tuesday 8* NBA ATS Play |

02-23-16 | Vanderbilt +4 v. Florida | 87-74 | Win | 100 | 17 h 11 m | Show | |
Vanderbilt +4 The Vanderbilt Commodores have definitely been a disappointment so far this year, but there is still plenty of time for them to change that. Vanderbilt has a wealth of talent, but they haven't quite been able to pick up those key road wins yet. Even with the way they have fallen short so far this year, look at their losses on the road. They lost by 2 at Baylor against a good Bears team. They lost in OT at Arkansas. They lost by a point at Mississippi State. The Commodores have been very close. This Vanderbilt team has far more balance than does Florida. The Gators offense has been very bad this year, and they rely on the ability to slow down the opposition. Vanderbilt has several very good outside shooters and two good big men in Jones and Kornet. Some trends to consider. Gators are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. Underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. Vanderbilt has a good chance to win this game, but given this many points, I'll grab them in what should be a close game. Take Vanderbilt. Good Luck, Razor Ray. 9* Tuesday CBB ATS Play |

Wisconsin Green Bay ATS The Phoenix welcome in the Vikings for a Horizon League showdown and the home team in Green Bay holds a lot of value here. Green Bay continue to hold onto the 4 seed in the Horizon League, but needs a lot of work to catch the 3rd spot while avoiding falling into 5th. The Phoenix bring in one of the best scoring offenses in the conference as they score 86.3 points per home game. Take that into consideration when looking at Cleveland State, as they average just 60.8 points per game. Winning for opposing teams in Green Bay has been a rarity as well this season. The Phoenix bring in a 9-2 SU record while going 5-3-1 ATS in lined games. Overall on the season, they've been a profitable team going 14-10-1 ATS. Meanwhile, Cleveland State has gone just 9-15-2 ATS and have won just 3 of 12 road games. These teams met in Cleveland back on 1/7 and it was all Green Bay as they routed the Vikings by 20. They simply were too much offensively, both inside and out. Vikings are 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Green Bay.Vikings are 2-7-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Cleveland State hasn't had any success against Green Bay head to head and they haven't had much success in general this season. Look for a very lopsided win here for the Phoenix as they have no problem with the Vikes. Back Wisconsin Green Bay ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Monday 9* CBB ATS Play |

Nashville Predators ML The Predators head into Montreal on Monday night and the Predators have picked up some solid steam, making them very valuable in this position. Montreal, who was once the best team in the NHL earlier this season, has completely fallen off the radar with the injury of goalie Carey Price. Now, this team has struggled to put together any sort of consistent winning streak and sits very far out of the playoff race. As for Nashville, they bring in a solid 5 game point streak, going 2-0-3 as they hold onto the 2nd Wild Card spot in the West. Nashville has played extremely well, as they haven't lost in regulation since January 12th. Head to head wise, the Predators have had a lot of recent success against the Canadiens. Nashville has earned at least a point in each of the last 8 meetings between these clubs, going 5-0-3 in that span. In their last 3 trips to Montreal, they've gone 2-0-1. Pekka Rinne has been a fein in goal against Montreal stopping 57 of 59 shots over the past 2 meetings and has gone 5-0-1 with a GAA of just 0.99 in the last 6 starts in this series. Predators are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing record.Predators are 15-7 in their last 22 vs. Atlantic. With how well the Predators are playing, combined with just how Montreal hasn't been able to pick up any steam, the Preds hold a lot of value here on the road on Monday. Back Nashville ML.

Illinois +11.5 The Illinois Fighting Illini are the play here because Wisconsin is in a clear letdown and look ahead spot. Wisconsin is coming off a stretch where they played Maryland and Michigan State back to back. They go to Iowa after this game. Wisconsin needs to win this game, but they don't need to win by 13. The Badgers should be content with just getting out of here with a win. The Badgers need another marquee win to get on better footing for the NCAA Tournament selection which is only 3 weeks away. They know this game won't do them any good with the committee. Illinois has been inconsistent this year, but they have played some solid teams tough on the road. They lost by only two at Ohio State and at Northwestern. Illini are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 road games. Wisconsin should win this game, but this is too many points. Take Illinois.

Cleveland Cavaliers ATS The Cavs and Thunder headline the Sunday slate of NBA match-ups and the road team in Cleveland catches 3 points, making them very valuable. It's rare to find Cleveland getting points and even though their opponent is the Thunder here, Cleveland matches up very well with them. Cleveland picked up right where they left off prior to the break as they won their 5th in a row, handling the Bulls with rather ease. As for the Thunder, they stumbled out of the gates here in the 2nd half with a home loss to Indiana. They come into this one down, as it's becoming more and more evident that catching the Spurs and Warriors just isn't likely. Cleveland should also have Channing Frye, their deadline acquisition, dressed and ready to go. Frye was acquired to stretch the floor and more depth to this Cavs team. Frye has shot 40% from behind the arc this season, making him that much more dangerous. Cleveland has taken the last 2 meetings and is a very respectable 16-10 away from home. Cavaliers are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings.Cavaliers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. Western Conference. Look for the Cavaliers to really make a statement here. Grab the points as they have a very good chance of winning this game outright. Back Cleveland ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Pittsburgh Penguins ML The Pens head into Buffalo and a bounce back is certainly in store here for this Pittsburgh team. At this low of a price, they're certainly worth the price. Pittsburgh fell at home on Saturday to Tampa Bay 4-2 and getting one of the worst teams in the NHL is the perfect scenario for bouncing back. The Penguins also have dominated the series with Buffalo. Pittsburgh has won 7 straight in this series, which also includes a 1 goal win this season. Also making this even more of a nice play, Penguins G Marc-Andre Fleury owns a career record of 18-5-2 against Buffalo. Fleury was sick on Saturday and missed the loss to Tampa, which plays into our advantage. Fleury is questionable still, but should play here. The extra day of rest works out for him and will make him fresh going into Sunday. Penguins are 5-0 in the last 5 meetings in Buffalo.Penguins are 42-19-4 in the last 65 meetings. Pittsburgh has absolutely dominated Buffalo and the large sample size of the last 65 meetings shows that. With everything falling into place for this one, expect Pittsburgh to roll here over Buffalo. Back Pittsburgh ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Sunday 10* NHL ML TOP PLAY |

Nashville ML The Predators welcome in the Los Angels Kings on Saturday night and the home team opens as an essential pickem here, making them very valuable. Nashville has had a roller coaster of a season. However, when they needed it the most, they turned in one of their best performances of the season last time out. The Preds took down the Bruins 2-0 at home. Predators G Pekka Rinne saved all 29 shots he faced in the win, as he came up clutch after being pulled in 2 of the previous 3 contests. Rinne, like the team, has had a very up and down season. However, when asked upon, he's turned in big game after big game, like the last one. At home this season, Rinne has gone 14-9-3 and the team has gone 15-10-3-1 overall. Meanwhile, the Kings come into this one on a bit of skid, as they've dropped 3 in a row going 0-2-1 in the process. Kings are 1-5 in the last 6 meetings.Predators are 4-0 in their last 4 vs. Pacific. The Kings haven't been good head to head wise with the Predators and this Nashville team is much better than they're 27-21 record. Look for the Preds to do exactly what they did to Boston, en route to a home win here on Saturday. Back Nashville ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Saturday 8* NHL ML Play |

Chattanooga -13 The Chattanooga Mocs are arguably the most complete team in the Southern Conference. They are both very good on offense and on defense. This is a team that does everything well. That's tough to go against for opponents. UNC Greensboro is one of the worst teams in this league. The Spartans lost their best player (Saddler) before the season, and they have struggled all year. Chattanooga already beat UNC Greensboro by 13 on the road this year, and the Mocs certainly have a good home court advantage. Chattanooga hasn't lost at home all year. The Mocs also have very nice road wins at Georgia and at Dayton. That's a sign of a very good team. Chattanooga is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games. UNC Greensboro is coming of an ATS cover, and they are 18-37 in their last 55 after covering the previous game. Lay the points. Take Chattanooga. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

North Dakota -9.5 The North Dakota Fighting Hawks  are coming off a one point road loss at Idaho. It was a tough loss, but this sets up as a nice bounceback spot for North Dakota. They host Northern Colorado, and Northern Colorado has the single worst defense in the country in terms of efficiency. Northern Colorado has had a lot of injury trouble, and they are a team that has not gotten better throughout the course of the season. The Bears of Northern Colorado are allowing opponents to shoot better than 40% from 3 point range on the season. North Dakota has already had nice home wins over some of the better teams in the Big Sky Conference. They beat Idaho State easily. They knocked off Weber State, who I believe is the best team in this league. North Dakota plays quickly and should put up a lot of points in this one. Take North Dakota. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Xavier -4 The Xavier Musketeers have lost one game at home this year. It was to this Georgetown Hoyas team. Xavier didn't come ready to play on that day, but I think they will in this one. Xavier is clearly the much better team in this matchup, and they'll be out for revenge. Georgetown has lost 5 of their last 6 games. This Hoyas team is one of the bigger disappointments in the country this season. I look for them to struggle through the rest of the regular season. Why? Because there isn't much incentive for them now until they get into the conference tournament. Xavier is playing to try to improve their seed. The Musketeers have all sorts of star power in the backcourt, and their quickness should give Georgetown's defense fits. Xavier is the much better defensive team and they will be more motivated as well. This is a fair number to lay in this matchup. Take Xavier. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Razor's 7* Saturday CBB ATS Play |

02-19-16 | Iona +5.5 v. Monmouth | 83-67 | Win | 100 | 13 h 18 m | Show | |
Iona ATS Iona and Monmouth renew what has turned into a rivalry here on Friday night. The Gaels have had this game on their radar ever since 1/15 as revenge is on the minds of all their players. After their meeting on 1/15, a fight broke out during the handshakes as the Gaels weren't happy with the way Monmouth was presenting themselves. Iona took extreme exception to the disrespect Monmouth gave them on their own home floor. Iona comes into this matchup in a much better place than the last time these two teams met. The Gaels have gone 5-1 ATS and SU in their last 6 and look to build off a 19 point win. This team has been playing much better as of late and has much more confidence coming into this matchup than the last one. There is also a lot on the line for Monmouth here. This team does have the chance to clinch the conference regular season title on Friday. This game is expected to be filled to capacity, which isn't a norm there. With this being the biggest crowd Monmouth will be playing in front of, combined  with all the hype, expect a lot of nerves from them here. Gaels are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.Gaels are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. Metro Atlantic Athletic. With all the pressure on, along with the revenge factor here, expect Iona to be right there in the end with plenty of chances to win this one outright. Back Iona ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

02-19-16 | Rockets v. Suns OVER 214 | 116-100 | Win | 100 | 7 h 55 m | Show | |
Rockets vs. Suns Over 214 The Houston Rockets and Phoenix Suns are two teams who play zero defense. Fresh legs should help both of these teams quite a bit. Houston is certainly better than they have shown so far this year, but they have team chemistry problems and that shows up the most on the defensive end. Look at the last four games played between these two teams. We have finals of 113-111, 127-118, 117-102, and 111-105. That's four straight meetings over this total. I don't see any reason why this meeting would be any different. Phoenix doesn't have Markieff Morris now, and some believe they will have some trouble scoring moving forward. That might be the case, but I don't expect that to show up tonight against a Houston defense that few teams have struggled to score against. Over is 8-1 in Rockets last 9 road games and 11-1 in last 12 when opponent scores 100 points or more in previous game. Plus the OVER is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in Phoenix. Look for a shootout with very little defense all the way in this contest. Take the over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NBA O/U Play |

02-19-16 | Islanders -109 v. Devils | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 19 h 50 m | Show | |
New York Islanders ML The Islanders will play the 2nd leg in their back to back when they head into New Jersey to take on the Devils. At pickem price, the Islanders have solid value here. The Islanders were tough luck losers at home against the red hot Capitals as they tied things up with just a minute to play before losing in overtime. Still, the Islanders got a point and sit in 3rd place in the Metropolitan Division. New York has won 4 of their last 6 and earned points in 5 of them. They'll be going up against a Devils team that has struggled to score all season long. They're averring just 2.21 goals per game and hit the 3 goal mark just twice in the month of February. They were shutout against the Islanders back on 12/13 in a 4-0 decision. Head to head wise, this series has been dominated by New York. They have won 8 of the last 9 and 6 of the last 7 in New Jersey. Islanders are 5-1 in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest.Islanders are 4-1 in their last 5 overall. New York has been hot as of late and has no problem playing with no rest. With the way they dominate the Devils, this price on New York is a thing of beauty. Back New York ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

02-19-16 | Mavs v. Magic | 104-110 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 23 m | Show | |
Dallas Mavericks ATS The Mavericks head into Orlando as both teams get set for the drive toward the postseason. Both of these teams limped into the All Star break, but the Magic had the worst end of the two. Orlando started the season extremely hot and looked like they would be the surprise team here. However, since the page turned to 2016, the Magic have gone just 4-16. With them sitting 3.5 games out of the playoffs, the Magic decided to make a giant move at the deadline and acquire Brandon Jennings and Ersan Ilyasova. While these two will make this team better, no doubt, it will take some time to gain the team chemistry with the rest of the Magic. Dallas stood pat and sits in the 6th seed in the Western Conference. They come absolutely dominating the head to head series. Dallas has won 7 straight in this series and have won the last 9 meetings in Orlando. Mavericks are 9-0 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Orlando.Mavericks are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings. The Mavs aren't just winning in this series, they're covering the games too. With this game a pickem and the Magic trying to adjust to the team chemistry, look for Dallas to grab a road victory here on Friday. Back Dallas ATS. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 9* NBA ATS Play |

02-19-16 | Sabres +130 v. Blue Jackets | 4-0 | Win | 130 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
Buffalo Sabres ML Buffalo heads into Columbus on Friday night and they open as considerable underdogs, which gives them value here. Columbus does come into this one playing well, but this is such a solid let down spot for them as they welcome in a very low quality opponent. Don't overlook the fact that Columbus isn't that good of a team. This team is 5 games under the .500 mark, which is exactly where Buffalo is at. Columbus also isn't anything special at home. They're just 11-11-4-2 inside Natinonwide Arena and are horrid defensively as they give up 3.07 GAA per home game. Buffalo has gone 12-12-1-3 on the road this season which isn't all that bad as it means they've won more on the road than at home this season. Buffalo also got the better of the matchup back on 10/12 as they secured a 4-2 win as they outshot Columbus 33-24. Road team is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings.Blue Jackets are 1-8 in their last 9 games playing on 2 days rest. Home ice hasn't been much of a factor in this head to head series and with this being a let down spot for a Columbus team that has been playing top opponents lately, Buffalo holds value here. Back Buffalo ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Friday 8* NHL ML Play |

02-18-16 | Bruins v. Predators -126 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 9 m | Show | |
Nashville Predators ML The Predators welcome in the Boston Bruins on Thursday night and the home team holds solid value at the given price. Both teams are fighting for playoff positioning and with Nashville currently battling for one of the 2 Wild Card spots, they certainly have to win home games such as this caliber. Nashville is a very respectable 14-10-3-1 at home this season. They're scoring nearly 3 goals per home contest while conceding just 2.4. While the Predators have been struggling recently, this team has enough veterans and talent to really realize things need to be turned around starting now before the bottom completely falls out. G Pekka Rinne got 2 games off to really clear his head and get it right for the long haul in the push toward a Wild Card spot. This is the perfect spot for the Preds net minder to get his edge back as he is 3-0-1 lifetime with a 2.32 GAA against Boston. Home team is 9-2 in the last 11 meetings.Bruins are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Nashville. This is the best and most optimistic spot for the Predators really get themselves going. After all the bad times they've endured, they're still in a playoff position. With their success at home vs. Boston, combined with Rinne's success against them, this is a nice spot for Nashville. Back Nashville ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 8* NHL ML Play |

02-18-16 | Sharks -105 v. Panthers | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 18 h 24 m | Show | |
San Jose Sharks ML The Sharks and Panthers headline a marquee NHL matchup on Thursday. The game opens as a pickem and the visitors are worth it at this price for sure. Florida has easily been the biggest surprise this season. It started with them being under the radar, but now, they've gained the attention of everyone in the NHL. They're not used to big, marquee games like this while the Sharks have been through it all. Florida did knock off the Penguins 2-1 last time out [as we back them on the money line], however, they did that without 5 crucial players. They looked like a completely different team as they lacked the firepower they usually have. It's very likely they may be without all or some of those key guys as they all continue to battle injuries. The defense for the Panthers is extremely thin with Willie Mitchell and Erik Gudbranson both OUT. The Sharks have a lot of firepower offensively as they average 3.03 goals per road game this year. They will certainly exploit that here. San Jose is also hot coming into this one. They have gone 4-1-1 over their last 6 contests. They come in off a 4-2 victory over Tampa Bay that kicked off a 5 game road trip. This is also one of the best road teams in the NHL as they've gone 19-8-2 on the road this season. Panthers are 3-8 in their last 11 vs. Pacific.Panthers are 1-5 in their last 6 vs. Western Conference. The Panthers are just too thin here to compete with the high powered offense San Jose has. Expect the Sharks to come in here and grab another road victory. Back San Jose ML. Good Luck, Razor Ray.

02-18-16 | East Tennessee State v. The Citadel OVER 183.5 | 67-51 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 19 m | Show | |
East Tennessee State vs. The Citadel Over East Tennessee State and The Citadel clash on Thursday night and we get a chance to see two very good offenses and two very bad defenses. With that, the over holds tremendous value here. Anytime Citadel takes the floor, the over is a solid option. It just can't seem to get high enough when they play. Looking at Citadel, they have played to the over in 13 of 18 games this season. Overall they're scoring 84.4 points per game and conceding a ridiculous 95.5 points against. This team will get up the floor very quickly and use very little of the shot clock. On defense, they won't send many guys at the rim for defensive rebounds as they like to get their guards out and ready to book it. This gives the opposition plenty of 2nd chance points. On the East Tennessee State side of things, they are 13-8-1 to the over this season. They aren't quite as drastic in terms of numbers, but they're certainly up there. They put in 76.5 points per game and concede 76.6. They're right there in terms of the run and gun style as they too never use the shot clock. These two teams met on 1/23 and it was a complete shootout. ETSU knocked off Citadel 101-92. Over is 35-16 in Bulldogs last 51 overall.Over is 41-19 in Bulldogs last 60 vs. Southern. Expect this one to be just like the 1/23 matchup. These are two over teams that have the chance to both easily surpass the 100 point mark on any given night. Back the Over. Good Luck, Razor Ray. Thursday 9* CBB O/U Play |

02-17-16 | Colorado v. USC OVER 151 | 72-79 | Push | 0 | 24 h 8 m | Show | |
Colorado vs. USC Over The Trojans look to rebound from a rough road trip when they welcome in Colorado for a crucial Pac-12 matchup. Both teams really have the ability to score and put up points in quick flurries, making this over very nice. Looking at the home side first, the Trojans have the 2nd best scoring attack in the Pac-12 as they average 84 points per game. More impressively, that number jumps up to 87 points when they play at home. They'll get a chance at a very mediocre road defense that allows nearly 75 points per contest. Colorado also isn't too shabby in the offensive production department. They average 77 points per game and are the best 3 point shooting team in the conference. From behind the arc, the Buffs shoot 40% per contest as they aren't afraid to hoist it up from beyond the distance. The Buffaloes have also been an over team as of late, cashing in both times in their previous two games as them, along with the opposition found themselves in the 80's. USC has also been a solid over team, going 9-4 in their last 13. Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. Look for a lot of back and forth action here as these two teams aren't afraid to take early shot in the shot clock and will really look to get out and run here. Back the over. Good Luck, Razor Ray.
