01-01-18 | Central Florida v. Auburn -9.5 | 34-27 | Loss | -110 | 411 h 56 m | Show | |
                          AUBURN VS CENTRAL FLORIDA Auburn was 10-3 and lost the SEC Championship game to Georgia their last game. their other 2 losses were to Clemson and LSU. Their 15th ranked offense is led by QB Stidham who passed for over 2800 yards and 17 TD's as the Tigers had 1 of the most balanced offenses in the country. They rushed and passed for over 225 yards a game while averaging 34.4 points a game which was good for 25th best. Their running game was ranked 22nd as they won 8 of their last 10 games with all 8 wins by double digits. They were helped by a defense ranked 25th that allowed just 312 yards a game and only 17.3 points which was 10th best in the country. They had some big wins including victories over Alabama and Georgia who are both in the Championship series. UCF was the only undefeated team in the FBS but they played most of their games against American Conference opponents. They led the nation in scoring with over 49 points a game and scored at least 45 points in 7 of their last 9 games. What they don't have is a defense like Auburn's as they were ranked 91st, allowing over 420 yards a game including over 260 passing yards ranking them 111th. They allowed over 25 points a game but their last 2 opponents scored 97 points total. If they falter on defense their offense could be under way too much pressure against an excellent Auburn defense. Take Auburn |

12-31-17 | Cardinals +10 v. Seahawks | 26-24 | Win | 100 | 99 h 26 m | Show | |
                            CARDS @ SEATTLE Arizona is 3-2 over their last 5 games and that is their best stretch over 5 games all year. Their defense allowed 20 points or less in their last 3 games and 23 or less in 6 of their last 8. Their defense is ranked 6th in total yards and 4th in stopping the run. Seattle lost 2 of their last 4 games and have been outgained in yards in their last 4 games. QB Wilson threw for just 93 yards last week in their win over Dallas and only 142 the week before. They average just 332 yards of total offense a game and score less than 23 points. They have struggled on offense all year and this is a big spread to cover against this Card defense. Take Arizona |

                             PANTHERS @ FALCONS Carolina has won 7 of their last 8 games and want to improve on their #5 seed if they lose this game. They are 4th in the league running the ball while QB Newton has passed for less than 200 yards in 6 of his last 8 games and is nursing a bad shoulder. Their defense has not played their best football and has allowed at least 24 points in 4 of their last 5 games and have allowed 27 and 31 points in their last 2 road games which was the most allowed in back to back road games this season. Atlanta can clinch a playoff spot with a win or hope Seattle loses. They have won 5 of their last 7 games with help from a defense that allowed 23 points or less in 9 of their last 10 games and 20 points or less in their last 4 home games. Their last 2 losses have both been on the road. Take Atlanta |

Their defense has held 4 of their last 5 opponents below 70 points while their bench is very deep with 11 players getting at least 12 minutes a game. Mercer has lost 4 of their last 6 games and allowed at least 80 points in all 4 losses. Their last 3 wins were against a Division ll school and 2 teams with a combined 4-26 record.

12-31-17 | Browns +10.5 v. Steelers | 24-28 | Win | 100 | 45 h 16 m | Show | |
                            BROWNS @ STEELERS Cleveland will try and get their 1st win and not end up 0-16 for the year. Their offense has been held to 16 points or less in 5 of their last 6 games but they have lost a bunch of games after being ahead or within a few points in the 4th quarter. Their defense hasn't allowed more than 27 points in 5 of their last 6 games. Pittsburgh will probably rest most of their key players because of injury risks as they have wrapped up their division. Cleveland has more incentive than Pittsburgh while in their 1st meeting the Steelers won 21-18. Take Cleveland |
|||||||
12-31-17 | Texans v. Colts -4 | 13-22 | Win | 100 | 45 h 5 m | Show | |
                         TEXANS @ COLTS Houston's season fell apart after losing QB Watson and they have now lost 8 of their last 9 games. Their offense has shut down being held to 16 points or less in 7 of their last 8 games and the defense has allowed at least 24 points in 6 of their last 8 games. To top it off they have lost by double digits in their last 4 losses and 5 of their last 6 overall. They are 1-6 in road games and are down to their 3rd string QB and are probably happy this is the final game for them. The Colts are also having a year they would like to forget as they have lost 6 straight games and 9 of their last 10 overall. They haven't played as badly as Houston as 5 of their last 7 losses have been by 7 points or less while the defense has allowed 25 points or less in 7 of their last 8 games. Their last win was against Houston and there is no reason they can't do it again here at home. Take Indianapolis |

12-31-17 | Jets +17 v. Patriots | 6-26 | Loss | -135 | 45 h 50 m | Show | |
                            JETS @ PATRIOTS NY has lost 5 of their last 7 games and 8 of 10 overall. Amazingly they have been close in 6 of those losses as they lost by 8 points or less while their defense has also been better than their record indicates allowing 25 points or less in 5 of the losses. The Jets are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games and 7-1 ATS when they were a dog by 4 points or more. They lost to New England 24-17 in their 1st meeting after blowing a 14 point lead. New England has won 10 of their last 11 games and Brady is once again the leading QB in the NFL. But he has sputtered recently throwing just 4 TD's and 4 picks while completing only 52% of his passes in his last 3 games. New England has won 8 of their last 10 meetings with NY but won 6 of those games by 7 points or less with 4 of those by 5 points or less. With not much at stake in this game. This is a very large spread to ask the Pats to cover. Take New York |

They have had success against Florida over the last few years and won the last 5 meetings with the Gators. They have won 7 of the last 10 meetings overall while Florida won by 3 points in 2 of the 3 wins they have over that stretch. After winning their first 5 games the Gators are 3-4 in their last 7 while being held to 75 points or less in their last 6 games which is way below their 84 point average for the season. Take Vanderbilt |

They were led by QB McSorley who threw for over 3200 yards and 26 TD's and 1 of the best running games led by RB Barkley with over 1100 yards and 16 TD's. That had their offense ranked 30th averaging over 450 yards a game and scoring over 41 points a game.

Their well balanced offense was led by QB Browning who threw for over 2500 yards and 18 TD's with a running game that scored 34 TD's. They have been pretty good defensively as they are ranked 5th and allow just 277 yards and only 14.5 points a game but in 2 of their last 3 games allowed 30 points to both Stanford and Utah. They haven't played a team as good as Penn St on both sides of the ball and will need to bring their best. Take Penn State |

                          MISSISSIPPI ST VS LOUISVILLE Mississippi St lost 2 of their last 3 games as well as their head coach who accepted the head coaching job at Florida and to make matters worse they lost their starting QB who broke his ankle in their final regular season game. They had a 4 game winning streak where the defense allowed 23 points or less and then lost 2 of their final 3 games as the defense allowed 31 points in each of the 2 losses.

12-29-17 | USC v. Ohio State -7 | 7-24 | Win | 100 | 346 h 41 m | Show | |
                               OHIO ST VS USC Ohio St probably feels slighted since they won the Big 10 Championship game but weren't chosen in the Championship Series. Since losing their last game they reeled off 4 straight wins to end their season with big wins against Michigan, Michigan St and their biggest win against Wisconsin to win the Big 10 title game.

He has thrown for over 3700 yards and has the 19th best passing game as they average 294 yards in the air and 34 points a game. Their defense which is only 100th in the country, allows over 400 yards and over 26 points a game and must play better than that against this Buckeye team. They can't afford to have to play catch up against this defense. Take Ohio State |

Their offense was 105th in the country averaging only 351 yards a game and were pretty bad passing the ball averaging 181 yards which ranked them 100th.

They average 576 yards a game and score over 46 points a game. They won 6 of their last 8 games and scored at least 40 points in 8 of the last 10 games of the season. Defensively it's another story as they allowed at least 39 points in 4 of their last 5 games but they have had some good defensive games holding 4 of their last 10 opponents to 21 points or less. They allow 400 yards and 30 points a game but they will be without their leading receiver. Their offense isn't all that good to begin with as they are ranked 71st and score less than 29 points a game. In their last 4 games of the season they were held to 22 points or less and 24 points or less in 6 of their last 8. They have a good defense that only allowed 13.5 points a game but gave up 28 points to Miami and Georgia Tech in 2 of their last 4 games.

12-27-17 | Missouri -2.5 v. Texas | 16-33 | Loss | -110 | 36 h 24 m | Show | |
                              TEXAS VS MISSOURI Texas finished 6-6 never winning more than 2 straight games all year and went 3-4 in their last 7 games. Their offense struggled and played inconsistently as they scored 23 points or less in 4 of those games which was below their average of 29 a game. They will be without 2 running backs and their best offensive lineman as well as a WR because of suspensions and players sitting the game out. They will also not have 2 players in the secondary and possibly their best LB for the same reason and their weakness is pass defense. Missouri won their last 6 games and scored at least 45 points in each game. They have the 15th ranked offense that averages over 39 points and over 500 yards a game led by QB Lock who leads the nation with 43 TD passes.

Defensively they allow over 31 points and over 400 yards a game but held 5 of their last 6 opponents to 21 points or less while they are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games. Take Missouri |

They can all score as they have 8 players averaging at least 7.5 points a game while defensively they have held 9 of their 13 opponents to 70 points or less. They are the only team in the country in the Top 5 in both field goal percentage (52.2 percent) and free throw percentage (79.8 percent). Marquette relies mainly on 3 players that account for 57 of the 83 points they average each game. They have won 4 straight games and all by at least 9 points but played 2 ranked teams so far and lost both games and what has hurt them is their 32 boards a game average. They were outrebounded in all 3 games they lost as they don't have a lot of size and that will be a problem against Xavier also.

                        BUTLER @ GEORGETOWN Butler is 10-3 winning 7 of their last 8 games and scoring at least 81 points in their last 4 wins but 2 of their last 3 wins were against teams with a 6-17 combined record.

Their 3 losses were all against teams with a huge front line and they were outrebounded in 2 of the games by a combined 81-57 margin and lost both games by at least 14 points each. They visit Georgetown who also have a big front line as the Hoyas average 82 points and grab 41 boards a game as well as dish out 19 assists a game. They have 3 double digit scorers and 4 other players getting at least 7 points a game while hitting 50% from the floor with 4 of their top 5 scorers all hitting above 52%. they are 10-1 with the only loss to Syracuse in OT.

12-26-17 | Northern Illinois +6 v. Duke | 14-36 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 18 m | Show | |
                          DUKE VS NORTHERN ILLINOIS Duke relied on a defense that was ranked 22nd allowing 335 yards and 21 points a game. The problem was a very inconsistent offense that scored 21 points or less over a 6 game losing streak before they won their last 2 games going 6-6 for the year and the defense allowed at least 21 points in 6 of their last 8 games after allowing 20 points or less in their first 4. Offensively they were ranked 92nd averaging 25 points and and 379 yards a game. The Huskies might have even been better on defense as they were 18th in the country overall allowing 21 points and 328 yards a game. They won 6 of their last 8 games while scoring at least 30 points in their last 4 wins as they averaged over 30 points and almost 400 yards a game that was balanced almost equally between the run and pass. Their defense actually ranked in the top 25 in 9 different defensive categories. With Duke's offense and the Husky defense being what they are, asking Duke to win by a TD to cover the spread is asking a lot. Take Northern Illinois |

                          STEELERS @ TEXANS Pittsburgh is 11-3 but saw their 8 game winning streak broken last week when they allowed the Pats to score the last 11 points in the game before losing 27-24. Their defense which is ranked 3rd overall held New England to only 77 rushing yards but they have allowed at least 27 points in 3 of their last 4 games. They still average allowing less than 20 points a game and they are 5th against the run and the pass. Big Ben has been one f the biggest reasons for their success as he has really come on strong in the 2nd half of the season. Over his last 5 games he has thrown 14 TD's and at least 281 yards in each game. Houston has collapsed since losing QB Watson and have lost 6 of 7 since he was hurt. They lost by double digits in 4 of their last 5 losses including their last 3 games while the offense can't get anything going as they have been held to 16 points or less in 4 straight games. With Houston having to start their 3rd string QB and with Pittsburgh able to wrap up a #1 seed with a victory, it's a perfect storm. Take Pittsburgh |

                           PRINCETON @ HAWAII Princeton has won 4 of their last 5 games including an OT win over USC which may have taken a lot out of them. They scored less than 70 points in the next 2 games winning their last by 2 points and losing the other one after scoring at least 80 in the 2 previous games. They average 69 points and 30 boards a game but have to play Hawaii which is the only team with home court advantage in this Hawaiian Classic which is a big advantage. Hawaii has won 4 of their last 5 with the only loss to #6 Miami and all 4 wins at home by at least 8 points including a 79-71 over a tough Davidson team. Their defense has held those 4 teams they beat to 71 points or less and are 8-2 at home. Take Hawaii |

Their defense hasn't played very well and has allowed at least 78 points in 5 of their 6 losses while holding only 2 teams below 70 points. Akron has lost 2 straight games and the last was a 2 point loss to Princeton and the other to a very good USC team. they had won 3 straight before dropping their last 2 and scored at least 81 points in each win.They average 72 points and grab 35 boards a game and hit their 3's shooting over 37%. They have good size in their rotation and match up well with Davidson. This is a big spread for a struggling Davidson team to cover who isn't at home. Take Akron |

                           JAGUARS @ 49ERS Jacksonville has won 3 straight games and 7 of their last 8 overall and with a win today they can clinch their division. QB Bortles has played very well throwing for over 300 yards in 2 of their last 3 wins and completing over 66% of his passes in all 3. He has also thrown 7 TD's without a pick in those games and 12 TD's and just 4 picks over his last 9 games. He has led an offense that scored at least 30 points in those 3 wins while the defense has held 6 of their last 8 opponents to 17 points or less. SF has won 3 straight games since Garappolo has taken over at QB. They beat both Houston and Chicago for 2 of those wins but Houston has lost 7 of their last 8 while the Bears have lost 6 of their last 7. Jacksonville has the 2nd ranked overall defense and their 14.9 points allowed a game ins the best in the NFL. Take Jacksonville |

12-24-17 | Browns +6.5 v. Bears | 3-20 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 34 m | Show | |
                            BROWNS @ BEARS Cleveland and Chicago have 2 of the worst offenses in the NFL. Both teams have passing games that average less than 200 yards a game and Chicago averages less than 300 yards a game. Both teams average less than 17 points a game and while Cleveland hasn't won a game all year the Bears have lost 6 of their last 7 games and are just 2-5 at home losing their last 3 in Chicago. Both teams have nothing to play for but Cleveland probably has more incentive because they don't want to go winless. I don't think either team deserves to be laying this many points. Take Cleveland |

12-24-17 | Falcons +6 v. Saints | 13-23 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 27 m | Show | |
                            FALCONS @ SAINTS Atlanta has won 5 of their last 6 games and with a win today get 1 step closer to the playoffs as the Saints are 1 game up on them in the division. Their defense has held opponents to 21 points or less in their last 4 games and in 7 of their last 8 overall. They have played well on the road winning 3 of there last 4 there including their big win last week against the Bucs. NO is 2-2 since their 8 game winning streak was snapped but have a very good 6-1 home record. Their last loss was in Atlanta and the Falcons have won the last 3 meetings. The Saints allowed opponents to score at least 20 points in 4 of their last 5 games which was the defense's worst stretch of the year. This is a big game with 2 good teams playing so the points look good. Take Atlanta |

12-24-17 | Chargers v. Jets +7 | 14-7 | Push | 0 | 4 h 23 m | Show | |
                             CHARGERS @ JETS LA had their 4 game winning streak snapped last week losing to KC 30-13. It was their 3rd loss in their last 4 road games. It was also the 2nd time in their last 3 games they scored less than 20 points and as a matter of fact they scored less than 20 points in 4 of their last 5 road games. QB Rivers threw for just 227 yards last week which was his lowest total in the last 6 games and has thrown 4 TD's and 3 picks in his last 3 games. They have played better at home lately as they have 4 of their last 5 wins there. NY has lost 2 straight games including last week in New Orleans where they were within 5 points until they allowed a 50 yard TD run in the last minute of the game. They have played better at home and have 4 of their 5 wins there while in their last 2 home losses blew 4th quarter leads. This isn't a good spot for the Chargers especially laying points. Take New York |

                             BUCS @ PANTHERS Tampa Bay has lost 4 straight games and they can thank their 31st ranked defense but they lost their last 3 games by 6 points or less. QB Winston threw 3 TD's last week but they couldn't stop Atlanta when they had to. It was the 2nd week in a row they lost by 3 points while QB Winston has played well in his last 3 games completing at least 65% of his passes in each and throwing 7 TD's with just 2 picks. He has 14 TD's and just 5 picks over his last 9 games. Carolina has won 6 of their last 7 games but their once tough defense has allowed at least 24 points in each of their last 4 games while winning by less than 10 points in 4 of their last 5 wins. QB Newton hasn't been very effective passing the ball as he has passed for 250 yards or more just once in his last 9 games while winning by 7 points or less in 5 of their last 8 wins. He is having problems with his throwing shoulder and will probably play but a double digit spread might be too much to ask. Take Tampa Bay |

                              COLTS @ RAVENS Baltimore has lost 5 straight game but 4 of their last 6 losses were by 6 points or less and the defense allowed 20 points or less in 4 of their last 6 games. There are no playoffs in their future but are playing against a Baltimore offense that has been inconsistent all year. The Raven offense is ranked 27th in total yards while the passing game gets less than 200 yards a game ranking them 29th in the league. They score just over 24 points on average but have been outgained in total yards in 4 of their last 5 games. This is a big spread to ask the Ravens to cover considering their questionable offense.

They have 5 double digit scorers but are shooting just 67% from the foul line and have 3 losses so far compared to last year's 31-5 team.

They score 71 points and grab 37 boards a game shooting 41% from the floor. They have 5 players scoring at least 8.8 points a game with 3 in double digits and have 6 players getting at least 4 rebounds a game. Auburn has won 8 straight but without their leading scorer and their 2nd leading rebounder that streak could be in jeopardy. They average 86 points and 41 boards but shoot only 46% from the floor and with 2 of their 6 players who get at least 20 minutes each game out, it could affect their game. They haven't really faced any major competition yet and their last 3 wins were all by 6 points or less. Take Connecticut |

They average 79 points hitting 50% from the floor and 36% of their 3's. They have a very deep bench with 10 players getting at least 11 minutes a game while 3 of their top 4 scorers are shooting at least 52% from the floor. The Tarheels lost for the 2nd time when they were beaten by Wofford at home in their last game. It was the 2nd straight game they were held below their scoring average of 85 points. They have struggled with their offense with inconsistent scoring from their players with just 1 game that 3 players averaged at least 9 points in a game. their defense has allowed 5 of their last 6 opponents to score more than 70 points. They aren't at home and this spread might be a little too much for them to cover. Take Ohio State |

With 4 double digit scorers they average 85 points and grab 41 boards a game with 4 players averaging over 5 a game.

                         MANHATTAN @ SETON HALL Manhattan is 5-6 and has had some tough luck as 3 of their last 5 losses were by 7 points total. They won 2 of their last 3 game as they average 67 points and 32 boards a game. They hit 38% of their 3's which could help them stay with Seton Hall and counter a lacking inside game. Seton Hall is 10-2 and bounced back after their 2nd loss with a win over a weaker Wagner team. They average 81 points and 39 boards a game but hit less than 66% from the foul line. They will be without 1 of their best fill in players who is also the 3rd leading rebounder. They might be looking ahead to their 1st Big East game against Creighton after today and a tough Manhattan defense could keep it within double digits. Take Manhattan |

They average 82 points and 42 boards a game but have been held below their scoring average in 5 of their last 7 games and committed 21 TO's in their last game.

                           ST PETERS @ SETON HALL Since losing 3 of their first 4 games St Peters has won 3 of their last 4. They have relied on defense and last year held their last 13 opponents below 70 points and 9 of those below 60. Their defense hasn't been that strong yet but they lead the MAAC in scoring defense, field goal defense, 3 point defense and TO margin. Their offense was struggling in their first 4 games but have scored at least 77 points in 3 of their last 4. Seton Hall is ranked in the top 20 with an 8-1 record and wins against Louisville and Texas Tech. They have an excellent offense that averages 82 points and 37 boards a game but has been held below their scoring average in 4 of their last 6 games. Their last 4 wins have been by 13 points or less while winning by more than 16 points twice. This might be a little too many points to give to a team with a defense like the Peacocks have.

They only hit 40% from the floor and less than 25% of their 3's. They don't have much size as only 1 player is taller than 6'8" and they are up against the best rebounding team in the country so 2nd chance shots will be far and in between. Rutgers averages 73 points and 47 rebounds a game. Their 3 losses were all to quality teams- Minnesota, Florida St and Michigan St. They are 7-3 at home ATS in their last 10 in Rutgers.

Three of their top 5 scorers are shooting below 46% from the floor and the team hits below 70% from the foul line. This is a big spread to ask them to cover as they seem to be struggling.

They have struggled on the road recently having lost 2 of their last 3 there while scoring 23 points or less in 4 of their last 5 away games. Pittsburgh won their last game for their 7th straight win.Their defense has been strong allowing 20 points or less in 6 of the 7 wins while Big Ben has thrown 10 TD's and just 3 picks in his last 3 games.

That was a big help to the offense who haven't scored more than 24 points in 6 of their last 8 games. They are now playing in Jacksonville against arguably the best defense in the league. They lead the league in scoring defense (14.7 points a game) as well as yards per game and their 45 sacks also are the best. They have won 5 of their last 6 games and have won their last 3 at home. They are fighting with Tennessee for the division lead and Seattle might be looking ahead to next week's game with division leading LA. Take Jacksonville |

They won by 4 points or less in 3 of their last 4 wins while their last loss was a 40-17 beating on the road in Pittsburgh. They have been vulnerable away from home as they have 3 of their 4 losses on the road. Arizona is having a pretty bad season losing 3 of their last 4 games and losing their starting QB in the 3rd week of November. They have 2 of their last 4 losses to the 9-3 division leading Rams. This could be a tough spot and a let down for the Titans who struggle on the road. Take Arizona |

They are led by 3 seniors and have 5 double digit scorers of which 4 average over 15 points a game. Kansas suffered their 1st loss after winning their first 7 games. Their offense seems to have hit a wall as they haven't scored more than 76 points in their last 2 games. They were averaging almost 90 a game with their 5 double digit scorers but in their last game they were held to 65 points and only 2 players managed to score in double digits and 1 of them scored 10. They play 3 of their next 4 games on the road so they could have a lot on their minds besides their most recent loss. This is a big spread for a team that has had it's share of problems recently.

They have no passing game as it ranks 32nd with 160 yards a game and they have only 11 passing TD's all year and 9 picks. They are horrible on the road having lost 4 of their 5 played there. Cincinnati got off to a horrible start losing 4 of their first 6 games before going 3-3 in their last 6. But their last 2 losses were by 7 points total. They have a bend don't break defense that allows less than 20 points a game but have been hurt because of a lack of a running game to open up the passing for QB Dalton who has thrown 20 TD's and passed for over 2600 yards. Over the last 6 games he has thrown 11 TD's without an interception. Take Cincinnati |

They have won 7 of their 8 wins by double digits. Arkansas is 6-2 and average 87 points and 35 boards a game but their defense has allowed the better teams they played to score over 80 points in 3 of their last 5 games. They lost their leading scorer and their leading rebounder from last year's team and that could be trouble against Minnesota who would be their toughest matchup since their loss to No Carolina.

                     FLORIDA VS CINCINNATI Florida won their first 5 games but have now lost 3 straight. Their last was bad losing to Loyola Chicago 65-59 and it was the 2nd straight game being held under 70 points. They were at home for 3 of their wins and have been held way below their average of 90 points a game. Their shooting has gotten worse as they are down to 46% from the floor as they have played good defenses. Now they have to play 1 of the best defenses as Cincinnati is always tough defensively. They were spanked in their last game at Xavier but had held their 6 previous opponents below 70 points and 5 of them below 60. They can score as they average 86 points a game and grab 43 boards while dishing out 18 assists. They shoot 48% from the floor and hit almost 39% of their 3's. four of their top 5 scorers are shooting above 49% from the floor and they don't commit a lot of TO's.
