This is an 8* play on the Seattle Mariners +1.5. |

04-21-17 | Maple Leafs v. Capitals -1.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 27 h 51 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Washington Capitals -1.5.
The Capitals were supposed to beat the Leafs in 4-5 games, but they head back to Washington with the series tied 2-2. Game 5 is an absolute "must win" for Washington, a team that is trying to shake it's reputation as a playoff bust. The Caps have come out like gangbusters in each of the last two games, building big early leads. The Leafs were able to come from behind to win Game 3 in overtime, but they couldn't come back in Game 4. In fact if it wasn't for a bad call on a disallowed goal, the last game wouldn't have been close. Washington ranked 3rd in the league in scoring, and they had the 3rd best power play in the league during the regular season. They allowed fewer goals than any other team in the league, and Braden Holtby ranked second in the NHL in GAA during the regular season, and third in save percentage. This is a game that the Capitals simply can't afford to lose. I expect to see them start fast as they did in Games 3 and 4, but this time I don't think the Leafs will be able to come back. Take WAS.

04-19-17 | Rockies v. Dodgers -0.5 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 37 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the LAD -1.5. Clayton Kershaw lost at Coors Field earlier this month, but he had owned the Rockies prior to that game. Here is what I said prior to the Dodgers loss at Colorado on April 8th. "Colorado's Coors Field is the most intimidating ballpark in the majors for pitchers, but that doesn't seem to apply to Clayton Kershaw. He's 8-0 with a 1.91 ERA in nine starts versus the Rockies since 2014, and he's 3-0 with a 2.81 ERA in four starts at Coors Field during that span. Kershaw was dealing on Opening Day, going seven strong innings, striking out eight and allowing just one earned run. The Rockies lineup is batting just .214 with a whopping 76 strikeouts over a combined 243 at bats." The Rockies hand the ball to Tyler Anderson, who was rocked by the Dodgers at home in the last series. Anderson (1-2, 8.59 ERA) allowed five runs on five hits and four walks in five innings, losing that game by a score of 10-6. He's pitched two of his three starts this season on the road, surrendering nine runs on 13 hits over 9 2/3 innings. Take LAD. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-17-17 | Diamondbacks +1.5 v. Dodgers | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 11 h 53 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Arizona +1.5. The D'Backs won by a score of 3-1 at LA on Sunday, and I expect a similar result when Arizona sends lefty Robbie Ray to the mound on Monday. Ray (1-0, 2.19 ERA) struck out eight while giving up just four hits in six scoreless innings in a 4-3 win at San Francisco his last time out. He's pitched well in previous meetings with the Dodgers, going 3-3 with a 2.98 ERA in his last eight starts against them. The Dodgers line is batting just .215 over 93 combined at bats against Ray. The Dodgers hand the ball to Brandon McCarthy, who is off to a good start to the season. McCarthy (2-0, 1.50 ERA) allowed four hits over six scoreless innings in a 2-0 win over the Cubs at Wrigley his last time out. The D'Backs haven't seen much of McCarthy, but they have hit .286 over 28 total at bats. The Dodgers really struggle against left-handed pitching, batting just .225 versus southpaws this year. This is nothing new, they hit just .213 versus left-handed pitching in 2016. Take ARI. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-15-17 | Diamondbacks +1.5 v. Dodgers | 4-8 | Loss | -150 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Arizona Diamondbacks +1.5.
The Dodgers won big in Game 1 of this home series versus division leaders Arizona last night. The D'Backs are an underdog again tonight, and I like their chances of bouncing back with a win. Patrick Corbin will toe the slab for the visitors, and he's looked great in two starts so far. Corbin (1-1, 1.80 ERA) tossed six scoreless innings, giving up just four hits in a 3-2 win over Cleveland his last time out. The Dodgers hand the ball to Kenta Maeda, who has struggled so far this season. Maeda (1-1, 6.30 ERA) allowed four runs on five hits over five innings in a 10-4 win over Colorado his last time out. He gave up three runs on six hits and a pair of walks in five innings in a home loss to the Padres in his season debut. The Dodgers really struggle against left-handed pitching, batting just .209 versus southpaws this year. This is nothing new, they hit just .213 versus left-handed pitching in 2016. Take ARI.

04-12-17 | Blue Jackets +1.5 v. Penguins | 1-3 | Loss | -210 | 30 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on CBJ + 1.5.
The Blue Jackets owned the best record in the NHL for a long stretch this season, but after slumping at the end of the year they find themselves playing on the road at Pittsburgh in the first round of the playoffs. The Pens will be a big favorite in Game 1, but history tells us that it might not be an easy matchup for Pittsburgh. The key to winning in the playoffs is often goaltending, and Sergei Bobrovsky led the league in GAA and save percentage, and was third in the NHL in wins. The two teams split the season series 2-2, and six of the last eight meetings between the two teams have been decided by just one goal. The defending champion Penguins are banged up heading into the playoffs, with Chris Kunitz and Kris Letang out, and Evgeni Malkin coming off a shoulder injury. I expect Bobrovsky to keep the Jackets in this game, and make it a long series. Take CBJ. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-10-17 | Red Sox v. Tigers +1.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 16 h 23 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Detroit Tigers +1.5.
The Tigers have taken two of three in this home series versus the Red Sox, and I expect another close game here on Monday. Both teams will send their aces to the mound, but history favors Justin Verlander. The 34 year old Verlander has owned Boston, going 2-1 with a 1.04 ERA in four starts against the Sox since 2014. Boston's lineup is hitting a combined .200 with 25 strikeouts over 115 total at bats against him. Mookie Bets is 0-for-9 lifetime versus Verlander. The Red Sox hand the ball to southpaw Chris Sale, who was dealing on Opening Day. Sale has had troubles in past meetings with the Tigers though. Miguel Cabrera has roughed him up pretty good, batting .304 with four home runs and six RBIs in 46 career at bats. Victory Martinez has hit him even harder, batting .435 with four homers and nine RBIs in the same 46 at bats. Sale is 1-2 in his last five starts in the Motor City, surrendering 11 runs on 31 hits over 34 innings in those games. Take DET +1.5. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-04-17 | Padres v. Dodgers -1.5 | 4-0 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 12 m | Show | |
The San Diego Padres have been the laughing stock of the major leagues for decades, and if Opening Day is any indication, nothing has changed. The Dodgers tagged Jhoulys Chacin for nine runs in just 3 1/3 innings in a 14-3 win. It could be another one sided affair in Game 2 at Chavez Ravine. Clayton Richard will toe the slab for San Diego, and he's struggled in previous starts versus the Dodgers. Richard only started in nine games last season, but he faced the Dodgers twice. He gave up three runs on 12 hits over five innings in those games. The Dodgers lineup has eaten him alive, batting .376 over a combined 93 at bats. The Dodgers hand the ball Kenta Maeda, who is coming off a stellar rookie season at the age of 28. He tossed three innings of no-hit ball, using just 29 pitches in his final start of the spring. He faced the Padres four times last season, going 2-1 with a 3.27 ERA. April was his best month, posting a 1.47 ERA in five starts. The Dodgers have won seven of the last 10 meetings between the two teams, and six of those wins came in games decided by more than one run. Take LAD -1.5. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-03-17 | Padres v. Dodgers -1.5 | 3-14 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the LAD -1.5.
The Dodgers open the season at home against the Padres, and they will be an enormous favorite with Clayton Kershaw on the mound. Kershaw was 8-1 with a 1.08 ERA in 10 starts at home last season. He's owned the Padres, going 5-0 with a 1.10 in eight starts versus San Diego over the last three seasons. The Padres lineup has managed just 10 hits while striking out 23 times over a combined 67 at bats versus Kershaw. Jhoulys Chacin will toe the slab for San Diego, and he's been hit hard by the Dodgers in recent meetings. LA has scored a dozen runs on 25 hits over 21.5 innings against him over the last three seasons (4 starts). The Dodgers lineup is hitting a combined .336 over a total of 113 previous at bats versus Chacin. Take LAD -1.5. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-02-17 | Cubs v. Cardinals +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 20 h 58 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on STL +1.5.
The defending World Series champs will open the season on the road at St. Louis, and we see a pair of aces on the mound on Opening Day. Jon Lester will go for the Cubs, coming off a 19 win season a year ago. His numbers were better at Wrigley than they were on the road, but he was 13-0 with a 2.09 ERA in 18 starts under the lights. He tossed eight scoreless innings allowing just three hits in his only start in St. Louis. The Cardinals will counter with Carlos Martinez, who is coming off back to back impressive spring starts. Martinez tossed five scoreless innings, giving up just three hits in a 6-1 win over Washington on March 22nd. He then gave up a pair of runs on three hits over five innings in a 3-2 win over the Astros in his final start of the spring. The Cards have gone under in seven of his last nine home starts, and they've won in seven of his last nine overall starts. For what it's worth, the Cardinals finished second in the Grapefruit League this spring. Take STL +1.5. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-01-17 | South Carolina +7 v. Gonzaga | 73-77 | Win | 100 | 15 h 38 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the South Carolina Gamecocks.
I certainly never expected South Carolina to make it to the Final Four, especially after finishing the regular season with six losses in their final nine games. They did go 12-6 in the SEC this year though, and this team has come together at the right time. They have already taken down 2, 3 and 4 seeds (Duke, Baylor, FLA). The Bulldogs are now in uncharted territory, playing in the Final Four for the first time. The Bulldogs are the heavy favorite here, coming in as a #1 seed with a record of 36-1. It's important to consider that all their impressive stats are skewed due to the fact that they play in one of the country's weakest conferences, beating up on bottom feeders for most of the regular season. While they blew out Xavier in their Elite Eight matchup, they narrowly escaped with close wins in tight games against Northwestern and West Virginia before that. The Gamecocks are 20-8-1 ATS in their last 29 neutral site games as an underdog. They are also 38-18-1 ATS in their last 57 non-conference games. Take SOCAR. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-31-17 | Kings v. Canucks +1.5 | 2-0 | Loss | -215 | 14 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 6* play on the Vancouver Canucks +1.5.
The LA Kings will be eliminated from the playoffs if they lose tonight in Vancouver, but at this point it's only a formality. LA is coming off a 4-1 win in Calgary, but it was just the Kings third win in the last nine games. The Kings rank 25th in the NHL in scoring, and they are just 15-19-3 on the road. The home team has won four of the last five meetings in this series, and six of the last nine games were decided by just one goal. Vancouver has a winning record at home, and starting goalie Ryan Miller is 2-0 with a 2.00 GAA against the Kings this year. I just don't think the Kings deserve to be the favorite here, and I do expect a competitive game. Take VAN. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-30-17 | Georgia Tech +3.5 v. TCU | Top | 56-88 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Georgia Tech was one of the top defensive teams in the ACC this year, but during the regular season the offense often failed to click. That hasn't been the case here in the NIT Tournament, as the Yellow Jackets have averaged over 71 points per game on 44.8 percent shooting over their last five. Defense is still their strength though, holding opponents to just 61.6 points per game on 37 percent shooting during that span. They will play TCU in the NIT Final at Madison Square Garden, and they looked pretty comfortable in New York in their 76-61 win over Cal State Bakersfield in the Semi Final. For whatever reason, bettors aren't that fond of Georgia Tech. They are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games overall, but they are actually getting points here against a mediocre BIG12 team. Georgia Tech has covered the spread in six straight versus teams from the BIG12. Take GT. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-29-17 | Wizards v. Clippers -5 | 124-133 | Win | 100 | 20 h 14 m | Show | |
The Washington Wizards have struggled on the road all season long, and playing the Clippers in LA on back to back nights looks like a particularly tough spot. The Clippers have been playing well, winning three of their last four home games. They should have made it four straight wins at home but blew a 15 point lead in the final five minutes in a shocking 98-97 loss to the Kings Sunday. They've had a couple days off to regroup, and I expect them to come out focused here, looking to put that loss behind them. The Clippers have won seven of 10 meetings with Washington since 2012, and they won all five home games during that span. Washington trailed by 16 with two minutes to play in the 3rd quarter in last night's win over the Lakers. With the victory they clinched first place in the Southeast Division, setting them up for a massive let down here tonight. Take LAC. Â GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-29-17 | Hornets v. Raptors -6 | 110-106 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 3 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Toronto Raptors.
The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a 118-108 home loss to Milwaukee, and they play on back to back nights north of the border Wednesday. The Raptors are coming off a blowout win at home over Orlando (131-112). Toronto has won six of the last eight head to head meetings, and four straight home meetings in this series. Toronto is coming in riding a six game winning streak, and it's going to be hard for the Hornets to halt that while playing on no rest. The Hornets are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest, and 9-19-2 ATS in their last 30 road games versus a team with a winning home record. DeMar Derozan is lighting it up lately, averaging over 31 points per game over his last five. Toronto shot an incredible 59 percent from the field in Monday's win over Orlando. Take TOR.

03-25-17 | Wolves v. Blazers -7 | Top | 100-112 | Win | 100 | 14 h 33 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Portland Blazers.
Portland is one of the hottest teams in the league right now, and this is starting to look like another late season push for the playoffs like we saw last year. The Blazers have won nine of their last 12, and their last three wins have been in games decided by double-digits. The Minnesota Timberwolves are in town tonight, playing their second game of a back to back and coming in as losers of five straight. Four of those five losses were by 10 or more points, and that includes last night's 130-119 loss at the Lakers. That loss was particularly disturbing, blowing an eight point lead in the final 2 and a half minutes. The Wolves are likely to lay down here in a tough spot against a hungry Blazers team, and I expect a blowout. Take POR. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-23-17 | Suns v. Nets -4 | Top | 98-126 | Win | 100 | 19 h 21 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Brooklyn Nets.
The Nets have been quite competitive lately, coming into tonight's home game against Phoenix as winners of three of their last six. The Suns have lost five straight and seven of their last eight overall. Injuries have taken their toll on Phoenix, with Eric Bledsoe, Tyson Chandler and Brandon Knight done for the remainder of the season. Jeremy Lin has been in and out of the lineup for the Nets, but he's expected to play in tonight's game. The Suns have not performed well in previous meetings with Brooklyn, failing to cover in eight of the last 11 meetings, and losing four of their last five at Brooklyn. The Nets won the last meeting by a score of 122-104 in Phoenix back in November. Nets center Brook Lopez is lighting it up lately, averaging 26 points per game over his last five. He scored 29 points in Tuesday's win over the Pistons, and he should fill the stat sheet here against a defensively challenged Phoenix team. Take BKN. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-21-17 | Georgia Tech v. Ole Miss -5 | Top | 74-66 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 60 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Ole Miss Rebels.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are coming off back to back impressive wins in the NIT Tournament. Both of those were home games though, and they have really struggled on the road. Their most recent road game was a blowout loss (90-61) at Syracuse, where the Rebels just beat the Orange by a score of 85-80. The Yellow Jackets come into Mississippi as losers of seven straight road games. While they do play strong defense, they simply can't seem to score enough points on the road. Georgia Tech has averaged just 63.3 points per game on 42.1 percent shooting in road games, which is roughly 17 points fewer than the Rebels average at home. The Yellow Jackets are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games following three or more consecutive home games. The Rebels have covered the spread in five straight non conference games, and six of their last seven home games. Take MISS. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-21-17 | Bulls v. Raptors -6.5 | 120-122 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 27 m | Show | |
The Bulls have lost seven of their last nine overall, and they have dropped all the way to 10th place in the Eastern Conference. It's looking less likely by the day that the Bulls will be playing in the post-season, but as I said a few weeks ago, I don't think they are all that interested in getting their butts kicked by Cleveland in the first round. Dywane Wade is done for the year, and the looker room remains divided between players and coaching staff. The Raptors are starting to look like the playoff contender they were supposed to be, coming in as winners of three of their last four. They've lost 11 straight to the Bulls, and that's something that hasn't been lost on Dwane Casey: "Set the tone defensively from start to finish from the jump ball. That's the way we have to play and continue. Whatever we have to do to get this (monkey) off our back against Chicago, they beat us 11 in a row and that has to stop. Collectively, whatever we have to do defensively and offensively to set the tone, we have to do that." I expect a motivated Raptors teams to win big here at home in a game with massive playoff implications. Take TOR. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-18-17 | Canucks v. Oilers -1.5 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 113 | 9 h 46 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Edmonton Oilers.
The Oilers have won their last two games by a combined score of 14-5. They will host a struggling Canucks team tonight that has conceded a whopping 19 goals while losing five straight. Vancouver's last three losses were in games decided by more than one goal, and with their backup goalie going tonight, another lopsided loss seems likely. Richard Bachman will get the start in Edmonton tonight, and it's just his second appearance this season. "If we had Markstrom here, (Miller) wouldn't be playing as much, for sure," said Desjardins. "But he's played good, we've had time between games. I think a lot of starters would go through with that schedule ... you look at (Montreal starter Carey) Price, you look at those guys, they play that all the time." The Canucks could have trouble getting up for a game like this late in the year when they know they will be golfing in a few weeks. Take EDM. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-17-17 | Stars v. Flames -1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 150 | 11 h 36 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Calgary Flames.
The Dallas Stars played last night in Vancouver, defeating the Canucks by a score of 4-2. That snapped a three game losing streak, and one of those losses was a 7-1 defeat in Edmonton. They are back in Alberta tonight to face the Flames, and I think a similar result awaits. Here is what I said prior to their game versus the Oilers: "The Dallas Stars, who are one of the league's worst defensive teams. In fact, only Colorado has allowed more goals than Dallas this season. The Stars have given up a whopping 10 goals while losing their last two games. Matters have only gotten worse for Dallas after trading a pair of veteran defensemen at the deadline" They lost forward Jaime Benn to an upper body injury last night, and he will not play in Calgary. The Flames have won 10 of their last 11 overall, and three of their last four wins came by more than one goal. Take CAL. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-17-17 | Oklahoma State +2.5 v. Michigan | Top | 91-92 | Win | 100 | 10 h 44 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
On day 1 of the tournament, we saw two of the nation's longest winning streaks snapped when Princeton and Vermont lost in the first round. The public has been heavily invested in teams coming in riding hot streaks, and we can see that 70 percent of bettors are backing the Wolverines here in their first round matchup versus Oklahoma State. Michigan won the BIG10 Tournament, and has won seven of it's last eight overall. They might have lost whatever momentum they might of had though, as they played five games in seven days, then had the entire week off. The Cowboys won 20 games in the regular season (the same as Michigan) in a much tougher BIG12 Conference. Most of Michigan's wins came at home, winning just three of 11 on the road. The Cowboys were 7-5 on the road, and they are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 non-conference games. Michigan didn't fare well outside the BIG10, failing to cover in five of it's last seven non-conference games. Take OKST. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-16-17 | VCU v. St. Mary's -4 | Top | 77-85 | Win | 100 | 93 h 9 m | Show |
This is a play on the St. Mary's Gaels.
St. Mary's only lost four games this season, and three of those losses came against the #4 ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs. Admittedly the West Coast Conference is one of the weaker leagues in the country, but the Gaels had an impressive non-conference schedule. They beat Nevada by 18 points, won at Dayton, and won by 15 points at Stanford. They rank among the nations best defensively, allowing just 56.5 points per game on 40.9 percent shooting. They will face VCU in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, and the Rams didn't look sharp in their most recent games. They needed overtime to beat a pretty mediocre Richmond team, and then got blown out by Rhode Island in the A-10 Final. St. Mary's lost badly to Gonzaga in the WCC Final, but they beat BYU by a whopping 30 points in their previous game. The Gaels won 28 games this year, 26 of those were decided by double digits. Take SMC. GL, Jesse Schule |

Notre Dame finished the season strong, and pushed Duke to the limit in the ACC Championship Game Saturday. They came into that contest as winners of seven of their previous eight, beating #21 ranked Virginia and winning twice against #16 Florida State during that span. Princeton won plenty of games in the Ivy League, but they don't have any wins against ranked opponents. In fact, they haven't even played a Top 25 team this season. The Tigers non-conference schedule includes double digits losses to BYU, VCU and CAL. They even lost by eight points against A-10 bottom feeders St. Joseph's. Despite playing a far tougher schedule, the Irish scored more points, shot for a higher percentage, and were far better at the free throw line. This looks like quite a mismatch, and I don't think the Irish will have any trouble getting past the Ivy League champs. Take ND. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-12-17 | Cavs v. Rockets -5 | Top | 112-117 | Push | 0 | 14 h 53 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Houston Rockets.
The Cavs ended a three game losing streak with a 116-104 win over the Magic in Orlando Saturday, and they will travel West to play the Rockets in Houston Sunday. The Cavs have been careful with LeBron James in these back to back situations this season, and that's one reason why they are 1-5 ATS in their last six in the second game in as many nights. While LeBron is likely to play tonight, his minutes could be limited, and if the game gets out of hand the starters could get yanked early. Kyle Korver is out with a foot injury, and Kevin Love is still recovering from surgery. Cleveland hasn't had a lot of success in previous trips to Houston, failing to cover in 10 of their last 11. The Rockets have 45 wins this season, two more than the Cavs. This looks like a tough spot for a Cleveland team with not a lot to prove at this point. Take HOU. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-09-17 | Davidson -4 v. La Salle | Top | 82-73 | Win | 100 | 13 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Davidson Wildcats.
The Wildcats come into this A-10 Tournament matchup versus La Salle as winners of three of their last six. Two of those three losses came on the road, and all three of those games were against teams ranked near the top in the A-10 standings. The Explorers have lost five of their last seven overall, and their wins during that span came against bottom feeders Fordham and St. Joe's. All five of those losses came by a double digit margin, and La Salle has failed to cover in four straight as an underdog. Davidson has improved since losing at La Salle in January, while the Explorers have really dropped off after a solid start to the season. These two teams are trending in opposite directions, and I'll take Davidson as the small favorite. Take DAV. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the St. Mary's Gaels.
Gonzaga has won both regular season meetings versus the Gaels, but since then it's been St. Mary's that's been playing better basketball. The Gaels mopped the floor with BYU last night (81-50). This comes just over a week after the Cougars upset the Bulldogs on their home court. Gonzaga struggled to put away Santa Clara last night, but ended up pulling away late to win by nine (77-68). The Bulldogs have now allowed 60 points or more in seven of their last eight games, while the Gaels have held the opposition under 60 in six straight. While Gonzaga won and covered in both previous meetings, the Bulldogs are asked to cover an even greater number here at this neutral site. The Gaels have better numbers in neutral site games, averaging 73.9 points on 54.9 percent shooting. St. Mary's has been hot from beyond the arc, hitting 47.4 percent from three-point ranger over the last five games. I'll take the points in this marquee matchup. Take SMC. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-04-17 | San Diego State v. New Mexico | Top | 59-64 | Win | 100 | 20 h 14 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the New Mexico Lobos.
It's Senior's Night for New Mexico, and one senior in particular could have a major impact on this game. Forward Tim Williams hasn't played since the end of January, but he's expected to start in the Lobos final home game. Williams is the team's leading rebounder, and he led them in scoring prior to his injury. In his absence Elijah Brown has stepped up, and the junior guard has totaled 47 points in his last two home games. The Lobos host rivals San Diego State, and the Aztecs have really dropped off this year. They are just 3-8 on he road, and two of those wins came against bottom feeders UNLV and Utah State. They are coming off a 51-38 win over Air Force in their final home game, bu they were brutal offensively in that win. They shot just 28.8 percent from the field, and went 4-for-27 from three-point range. The Aztecs have averaged just 60.8 points on 38.2 percent shooting over their last five games. San Diego State has only covered the spread twice in 11 road games this season. The Lobos won 68-62 at San Diego State earlier this year, and they dominated the boards in that game, out-rebounding SDSU 38-27. Take UNM. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is an 8* play on the LA Clippers.
The Clippers have lost three of four since the All Star break, but those losses came against three of the league's best teams (Warriors, Rockets and Spurs). The head out East to play their next two games on the road, and they really need to pick up some points. LA is in a dogfight for the fourth spot in the Western Conference. Only two points separate the 4th and 7th spot (Utah, OKC, The Clippers and Memphis). They will be in Milwaukee tonight, and the Bucks are a team with a promising future. They are not ready to compete right now though, as evidenced by the fact that they have lost two of three home games coming out of the All Star break. The Clippers have won eight of the last nine meetings in this series, and they are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games playing on 1 days rest. They are also 6-1-1 ATS in their last eight following a double digit home loss. Take LAC. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is an 8* play on Cal State Fullerton.
The UCSB Gauchos are 0-11 on the road this season, and they've lost their last two road games by a combined 39 points. They lost at home to the Titans by a whopping 26 points earlier this season, so it would come as no surprise if they got their butts served to them here at Fullerton on CSF's Senior's Night. Gabe Vincent leads the Gauchos in scoring, and he hasn't played due to a knee injury suffered the last time these two teams met. Fullerton's last two home games were wins over the top two teams in the conference (UCD and UCI). They average 14 points more at home than the Gauchos do on the road, and they give up a couple points less. The Gauchos are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 road games, and the home team is 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings between these teams. Take CSF. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-28-17 | Indiana v. Purdue -10.5 | Top | 75-86 | Win | 100 | 15 h 22 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Purdue Boilermakers.
The Boilermakers are hosting BIG10 rivals Indiana Tuesday, with a chance to clinch first place in the conference. The Hoosiers are coming off a one-point home win over Northwestern, but had lost five straight before that. One of those losses was a 69-64 home loss to Purdue. The Boilermakers have a history for punishing Indiana at home, winning by double digits in 2015 and 2014. Purdue has been beating up on the opposition at home this season, with a 14-2 home record. They have held visiting teams to an average of just 61.4 points on 37.7 percent shooting in those games. Indiana has struggled on the road, scoring an average of less than 70 points while losing seven of eight. Indiana only scored 63 points in their final home game against Northwestern, and they were outscored (36-27) in the second half of that game. They ended up winning by one-point with a free throw in the final seconds, and I think that sets them up for a let down here against the mighty Purdue Boilermakers. Take PUR. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is an 8* play on the Rider Broncs.
Rider is coming off it's most impressive result of the season, scoring a whopping 103 points in an upset win at Iona. They play their final home game tonight against bottom feeders Manhattan, and I think this looks like a mismatch. The Jaspers are just 3-11 on the road, and their last two road games were both losses by more than 20 points. They shot just 25 percent from the field in a 78-49 loss at Fairfield on February 1st. Manhattan has scored fewer than 70 points per game on just 40 percent shooting on the road, while the Broncs are averaging over 80 points per game at home. Rider has scored more than 85 points per game on better than 50 percent shooting in it's last five games. The home team should win this one in a route. Take RIDER. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-21-17 | Colorado State +3 v. New Mexico | 68-56 | Win | 100 | 22 h 41 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Colorado State Rams.
The New Mexico Lobos are just 1.5 games out of first place in the Mountain West, but they haven't played particularly well lately. They are 3-3 in their last six games, and one of those losses came at home to San Jose State. The Lobos leading scorer Tim Williams suffered an injury against Nevada at the end of January, and it's no coincidence that they've struggled since. Colorado State comes in tied for first place in the conference (with Nevada and BSU), and the Rams are one of the hottest teams in the country right now. They've won seven of their last eight, with four of those wins coming on the road (at SDSU, at USU, at UNLV and at WYO). Senior forward Emmanuel Omogbo has really elevated his game, averaging 16.8 points and 11.4 rebounds per game in his last five. He scored 19 points and pulled in 16 rebounds in a win at Wyoming last Tuesday. Take CSU. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the Maryland Terrapins.
The Badgers host Maryland Sunday, and the winner of this game will move into a first place tie with Purdue at the top of the BIG10. Wisconsin has only lost one game at home this season, while the Terps have only lost once on the road. The Badgers are coming off back to back losses, and they've failed to cover in four straight. They've been brutal offensively, averaging just 61.8 points on 38.6 percent shooting over their last five games. One reason for their struggles has been an injury to senior guard Bronson Koenig, who didn't play in a 64-58 loss at Michigan Thursday. He was just 1-of-8 from the field, scoring two points in 30 minutes in last Sunday's home loss to Northwestern. Koenig is officially listed as day to day, and might be able to play today. Maryland has won 10 of 13 games in conference play, and their three losses came by an average margin of just three points. They beat the Badgers at Madison last season by a score of 63-60, and they are 10-1-1 ATS in their last 12 games as an underdog. Melo Trimble comes in feeling the hot hand, he scored 32 points on 12-of-17 shooting in a 74-64 win at Northwestern on Wednesday. Take MD. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the Eastern Washington Eagles.
The Idaho Vandals are coming off a blowout loss (88-65) at North Dakota, falling to 4-8 on the road this season. They face another tough road game tonight, playing at Eastern Washington. They already lost to the Eagles at home earlier this season by a score of 69-62. The Eagles are a dominant team on their home court, with a record of 12-1 this season, and a record of 34-4 over the last three seasons. They score an average of 85.9 points on 49 percent shooting at home, and that's roughly 15 points per game more than the Vandals have averaged on the road. The Eagles won last year's home game against Idaho by a score of 74-60, and they've won their last four home games by an average margin of 12 points. Eastern Washington is coming off it's best defensive showing of the season, holding Northern Colorado to just 44 points on 28.3 percent shooting. I don't expect this game to be close, Eastern Washington should run away with it. Take EWU. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the Tennessee Volunteers.
The Wildcats are just 3-3 in their last six games, and one of those was an 82-80 loss at Tennessee. Kentucky is favored to win the rematch at home, and many bettors will be playing the revenge angle here. I think this line is just far too inflated, especially considering how the Wildcats have struggled in recent weeks. They failed to cover in home games against LSU and Georgia, lost at home to Kansas, and got absolutely crushed at Florida. They have won their last three home games versus the Vols, but not one of those wins came by more than 10 points. Seven of the last 10 meetings between the two teams have been relatively close (10 points or less). Kentucky has struggled defensively over it's last five games, giving up 78.2 points per game on 48.7 percent shooting. The Vols have allowed opponents to average 10 points fewer, with a field goal percentage of just 38.4 percent during that same span. Tennessee has been a good bet on the road, covering the spread in eight of their last 11. I'll take the points. Take TEN. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the Denver Nuggets.
The Golden State Warriors are coming off a 130-114 win over the Thunder in Oklahoma City. That game was the second of a back to back, coming off a 122-107 win in Memphis the night before. They will play their third game in four nights on the road in Denver (at altitude) and this game couldn't be any more meaningless for the visitors. This is the ultimate let down spot for Golden State. This team has nothing left to prove to anybody. Kevin Durant scored 34 points in his first game back in Oklahoma City, despite dealing with hostile fans all night long. We don't have to speculate about what the Warriors did after the game, as their party plans are well documented. Durant wanted to rent out the Mahogany Prime Steak House, but was refused. He and his teammates ended up dining with the rest of the restaurant's regular clientele, which includes Russell Westbrook. It could be hard to get up for this game in Denver coming off such a marquee win. The Nuggets have won seven of their last eight home games, and they are battling for the eighth and final playoff spot in the West. Denver has covered the spread in six of their last eight versus Golden State, and they look good getting a double digit spread here tonight. Take DEN. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-11-17 | Warriors v. Thunder +7.5 | Top | 130-114 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 53 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on OKC. The Golden State Warriors visit the Thunder Saturday, in Kevin Durant's first game back at Oklahoma City. This will be the third meeting this season, and the Warriors won the previous two at home. Both of those games were high scoring, but neither game reached the inflated total. Once again the bookmakers are calling for a shootout, with another inflated number. These teams have failed to reach the total in four straight meetings, and the under is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings. This is a huge game for both teams, and we should see both sides giving 100 percent on both offense and defense. The Warriors have gone under in 19 of their last 26 road games, while the Thunder have failed to reach the total in five of their last seven home games versus a team with a winning record. The Warriors dominated the first two meetings, and Kevin Durant went off for 39 and 40 points (his two highest totals of the season). Playing on back to back nights, and dealing with all the emotions, I could see Durant struggling in tonight's game. He's hired additional security for this game, and that in itself may suggest his mind is on more than just basketball. The Warriors are just 1-5-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Oklahoma City. Take OKC. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-11-17 | Oklahoma +9.5 v. Iowa State | Top | 64-80 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Oklahoma Sooners.
The Oklahoma Sooners have lost six straight, and they are at the bottom of the BIG12 standings with a record of 2-9 within conference. With all the losses piling up, it's easy to forget just how competitive this team has actually been. Their last win came on the road at West Virginia by a score of 89-87. Since then, they've lost by just one point at Texas, and by two points at home versus Oklahoma State. Both of those games were decided by buzzer beaters. A home loss to Iowa State came by a score of 92-87 in double overtime. The Sooners were actually a two point favorite in that game, which means we see a 11.5 point swing in the rematch just three weeks later. These two teams have a history of playing close games, as each of the last five meetings have been decided by five points or less. Nine of the last 10 meetings have been decided by seven points or less, and neither team has been favored by more than 7.5 points in each of the last 10 meetings dating back to 2013. The Sooners are 7-2-2 ATS in their last 11 games as an underdog of 7.0-12.5, and the line in this revenge game appears to be grossly inflated. Take OKLA. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the Miami Hurricanes.
The Hurricanes will host Virginia Tech tonight, and both teams are 5-5 in conference play. Virginia Tech actually has a better record at 16-6, but the Hokies have been blown out in three of their last four road games. The only exception during that span was a one-point win at Clemson. Miami has won three of it's last four, and that includes a double-digit home win over the #9 ranked Tar Heels. They have played exceptional defense at home, holding opponents to just 61.9 points per game on 38.1 percent shooting. The Hokies are allowing opponents to average over 85 points on better than 50 percent shooting while losing four of six road games. The Hurricanes are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a home favorite of 0.5-6.5. I don't think the Hokies have what it takes to hang with the Hurricanes in Miami. Take MIA. GL, Jesse Schule |

The Nashville Predators have won eight of their last 12 games, but six of those eight wins came in games decided by just one goal. They host the Vancouver Canucks tonight, and five of the last six meetings between these two teams have been decided by only one goal, with each team winning 3-of-6 games. Three of those six games required overtime. The Canucks have a history of success in Nashville, winning 14 of their last 20 at the Music City. Both these teams are fighting for a playoff spot in the Western Conference, and we should see a strong effort from both sides. I like Vancouver's chances of snapping a three game losing streak here against a familiar opponent. Take VAN. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on the New Orleans Pelicans.
The Pelicans have a losing record at home (13-14 overall), but they have won seven of their last 11 home games. During that span they beat the Spurs, Clippers and Cavs. They host Phoenix Monday, and the Suns have lost six of their last seven overall. Their last five losses have all come by a double digit margin, and they have failed to cover the spread in five of their last six overall. Anthony Davis has been banged up all year, but he's played through various injuries, and continues to dominate. He's averaged over 25 points and 15 rebounds over his last five games. They Suns have allowed opponents to average over 112 points per game, only Brooklyn ranks worse. The Bucks scored a whopping 137 points on 63.4 percent shooting, handing Phoenix a 137-112 home loss on Saturday. The worst team in the Western Conference is unlikely to provide much of a challenge to New Orleans team that is just 3.5 games out of a playoff spot. Take N.O. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-05-17 | Patriots v. Falcons +3 | Top | 34-28 | Loss | -106 | 325 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Atlanta Falcons.
The New England Patriots will be the favorites in Super Bowl 51, and I can't argue with that. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick might go down in history as the league's best ever coach, and quarterback. It's been amazing watching them keep this team on top, despite the fact that they aren't the league's most talented team. Brady's receiving corps is mediocre at best, especially after the loss of Rob Gronkowski. The Patriots simply don't have the talent that Atlanta and Matt Ryan have to work with. Julio Jones might be the most dominant receiver in the league. They have a pair of dynamic running backs that are equally as dangerous in the passing game as they are running the ball. They led the NFL in scoring during the regular season, and they have played near perfect football so far in the playoffs. The only team that beat Brady this season was Seattle, who Atlanta played twice. The Seahawks rallied to win 26-24 at home in the regular season meeting, but Julio Jones got the better of Richard Sherman with seven catches for 139 yards and a TD. Atlanta won 36-20 in a home playoff win over the Seahawks just a few weeks ago, and once again Sherman couldn't keep Jones from reaching pay dirt. The Patriots defense had no answer for Russell Wilson in a 31-24 home loss to Seattle. Wilson threw for 348 yards and three TDs on 25-of-37 passing. They will have their work cut out for them trying to stop the probable MVP Matt Ryan, who has completed more than 70 percent of his passes for more than 1,000 yards and 11 TDs in his last three starts. The fact that the game is being played in a dome could also be an advantage for the "Dirty Birds". Take ATL. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-05-17 | Indiana v. Wisconsin -12.5 | Top | 60-65 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 35 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Wisconsin Badgers  The Indiana Hoosiers are coming off a triple overtime win over Penn State, by a score of 110-102. They had lost back to back road games prior to that, by a combined margin of 43 points. Now they head to Wisconsin, where the Badgers have won 18 straight. Wisconsin has beaten up opponents at home, winning their last four home games by an average margin of more than 15 points. The Hoosiers are in a tough spot, missing a pair of key players (OG Anunoby and James Blackmon). The Hoosiers are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog of 7.0-12.5. The Badgers on the other hand have covered the spread in four of their last five as a home favorite. This looks like a mismatch of epic proportions.Take WIS. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-04-17 | Oklahoma +7 v. Texas Tech | Top | 69-77 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 44 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Oklahoma Sooners.
Oklahoma has had some bad luck this season. The Sooners have lost four straight, and eight of their last 10. Their leading scorer Jordan Woodard has been battling injury and illness during that span, but despite all the adversity, they've still been quite competitive. Three of four losses on their current losing streak came in games decided by five points or less. They have covered the spread in six of their last eight versus BIG12 teams, and they are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a road underdog of 0.5-6.5. Texas Tech hasn't looked that great, failing to cover in six of it's last eight overall. The Red Raiders are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games versus a team with a losing road record. Jordan Woodard no longer appears on the Sooners injury report, and if he's healthy the Sooners might just be a threat to win this game outright. Take OKLA. GL, Jesse Schule |
