01-14-22 | Davidson v. Richmond OVER 143 | Top | 87-84 | Win | 100 | 16 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Davidson/Richmond OVER. I am on the over in the Davidson vs Richmond game on Friday. Davidson has won 12 games in a row and they have put up 70+ points in all of those games. Their 2 losses this year were the only games that they didn't put up 70+ points in but those 2 losses were right at the beginning of the year and they have been scoring a ton ever since they went on their huge run. They have been stringing a lot of wins together lately but they haven't been getting those wins by playing good defense and I think this is going to be another game where they focus on their offense and try to outscore Richmond on the road here. Davidson has given up 65+ points in 3 games in a row and all of those games were in conference play. Their defense has been a lot worse on the road though and I think that is going to continue here. They have won all 3 of their road games this year but they have given up 69+ in all of those games, giving up 73+ points in their 2 most recent road games. I don't think Richmond is going to get pushed over by them though and I expect them to put up a fight here since they have the extra motivation of being the team that can end Davidson's long win streak. Richmond is also at home here where they have played much better this year and they just won their most recent game at home while putting up 80 points. That was their 1st win in conference play this year and now that they have the taste of winning in their mouths again, I expect a good performance from them on their home court. I think Davidson is going to focus on shooting and scoring in this game and I think it is going to leave plenty of opportunity for Richmond to keep up and even take the lead. These teams are going to be chasing each other all night with their shooting so I like the over in this game. T.M. Selection: 81-78 Richmond. |

01-05-22 | Texas Tech v. Iowa State -2.5 | Top | 47-51 | Win | 100 | 15 h 21 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Iowa State. I like Iowa State to cover the spread against Texas Tech in this game on Wednesday. Iowa State has been having a great year, they won 12 games in a row to start the year off but lost their most recent game to Baylor. Baylor is ranked 1st in the country so that is not a bad loss but they only lost that game by 5 points at home and they have to be steamed about coming so close there. I think they are going to be hungry to bounce back in their next game and they will need to win since that loss started off their conference play at 0-1. They are at home again and I think Iowa State is going to step up here and get that conference win to get back to their winning ways. Before that loss to Baylor, Iowa State had won 4 games in a row by 10+ points and they had won all of their home games this year by 10+ points except for 1 game that they won by 8 points. They look great when they are on their home court and I think they are going to cover the spread here after playing very well against Baylor and almost ending their undefeated run. Texas Tech has looked good in their games lately but they have not been playing any strong teams really. They have only played in 1 road game this year and they lost to Gonzaga by 14 who has shown some cracks this year already. Texas Tech lost their only true road game played this year and now they get to be on the road again for their 1st game of conference play and Iowa State is not an easy team to play their 1st conference game against. I think Iowa State is the better team here and they are going to be upset over their loss to Baylor. I think Iowa State will bounce back in this game and cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 77-70 Iowa State. |

12-29-21 | LSU v. Auburn -4 | Top | 55-70 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: AUBURN (10* GAME OF WEEK). LSU has a big target on its back with a 12-0 record. The Tigers are off a relatively simple 95-60 win over Lipscomb last time out. The Tigers average 79.6 PPG, while allowing only 54.1. Auburn is 11-1. It's 6-0 at home. It averages 81.1 PPG, while conceding 64.9. Three players average double figures for LSU. Three players average double figures for the home side as well. LSU has been fantastic, but it faces its toughest test of the year at Auburn. I say that home court advantage is the difference-maker! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-21-21 | Georgia State v. Georgia Tech -5 | Top | 62-72 | Win | 100 | 16 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Georgia Tech. I like Georgia Tech to cover the spread against Georgia State in this game on Tuesday. Georgia Tech had a great start to their year with a 5-1 record in their 1st 6 games but they have fallen into a slump lately losing 4 games in a row. I think this is a great game for them to bounce back, they are getting a team at home that they are much better than and this is a state rivalry game so i expect the Georgia Tech players to get up for this game. Georgia Tech has lost 4 games in a row but they have had a very tough schedule during that time facing 3 ranked teams and 1 team that wasn't ranked but is very good at 6-2 this year. Before that losing skid, they had won all but 1 of their wins by 9+ points and looked really good playing on their home court. Georgia State has not looked that great in their games lately, they have had alternating wins and losses over their previous 4 games and they only have those 2 wins in their previous 5 games. They have played a much weaker schedule than Georgia Tech has too so their wins haven't even been that impressive. They have really struggled in their games against better teams though, including some 10+ point losses against teams like Mississippi State, Rhode Island, and Richmond. I think Georgia Tech is a much better team than Georgia State is and I think Tech is going to be very happy in this game with a nice chance to end their losing skid. I expect them to play well in this game and pull away in it early sustaining their lead the whole game. I like Georgia Tech to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 77-56 Georgia Tech. |
|||||||
12-15-21 | Portland +17.5 v. Oregon | Top | 71-96 | Loss | -108 | 13 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Portland. I like Portland to cover the spread against Oregon in this game on Wednesday. Portland has looked good in their games this year with an 8-3 start to the year. A lot of their wins this year have been close games but their has been a few that they won by 10+ points too. They have only lost 3 games all year and they did not even look terrible in those losses. Their biggest loss was by 16 points to Arizona State in their 1st game of the year but things translate over fully in that first game and they have gotten a lot better since that loss. They have lost 2 games since then and those were both losses by single digits. Their defense hasn't looked great but their offense is scoring in their games and has been keeping up with whatever team has been in front of them. Oregon was supposed to have a very promising year this year but that has turned into a disaster as they have 5 losses through 10 games already. They started great winning 3/4 games to start the year but they have lost 4/6 in their most recent games and haven't looked good in any of those games but 1. Their 1 impressive win was over Montana by 40 points but their other win was an unimpressive 6 point win over UC Riverside on their own home court and then they had 2 losses by 10+ points and 2 closer losses against other conference teams. Oregon has looked bad all year and they are playing bad in a lot of their games. Oregon is not going to win this game by double digits with the way they have been playing so I like Portland to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 66-62 Oregon. |

12-07-21 | Michigan v. Nebraska UNDER 141.5 | Top | 102-67 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Michigan/Nebraska UNDER. I am on the under in the Michigan vs Nebraska game on Tuesday. Michigan started the year as a ranked team but they have come a long way since then with 3 losses just 8 games in they have already been stripped of their rank this year and are not the team people though them to be. Their defense has looked good lately and they have kept the opposing team to less than 60 points in 2 of their previous 3 games. Their offense has decreased a lot since the beginning of the year though and they aren't scoring as much as they were. They have only put up 70+ points in 1 game of their previous 4. Michigan has also played just 1 road game this year and they were terrible in that game only putting up 51 points. Nebraska has been playing in some high scoring games this year but now that conference play is here I expect that to change. Nebraska put up 70+ points in their 1st 8 games this year except for 1 and that was against Creighton. Creighton was the best team that they faced during that time but as soon as they play a decent team they can't score as much and aren't as good anymore. Their most recent game was a conference loss to Indiana and they only put up 55 points in that game, and that was right after a game that they scored 100 points in. Their defense wasn't terrible in that game either though and they didn't let Indiana get to 70 points in that game. I think that Nebraska is going to struggle here since Michigan is a much better team but I don't think Michigan is going to come out and lay the points on them either. I expect there to be some good defense in this game from both and I think Michigan is also going to struggle on the road a bit. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 64-56 Michigan. |

12-04-21 | Alabama v. Gonzaga -9 | Top | 91-82 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga. I like Gonzaga to cover the spread against Alabama in this game on Saturday. Gonzaga just won their previous game by 9 points against Tarleton State but I think that they still have to be boiling over their loss to Duke in their game before that one against Tarleton. They lost to Duke by 3 points but they still played very well in that game and they have looked really good all year. That loss dropped them to 3rd in the country while Duke took over 1st place and then went and lost to Ohio State after that. I think that Gonzaga is boiling over that loss and I think that they are looking to destroy all ranked teams and take back their spot at the top. Gonzaga has already beaten a few ranked teams this year and they were by double digits in both games. They beat a top 10 Texas team by 12 points and they also beat a top 5 UCLA team by 20 points and they were 2nd in the country at the time of that loss to Gonzaga. I think Gonzaga is still by far the best team in the country no matter what the rankings say. Gonzaga has beaten many opposing teams by 20+ points and by double digits this year, including ranked teams, and I expect this game to be no different for them. Alabama has looked okay in their games this year but they have also had a much easier schedule than Gonzaga has and Alabama hasn't even faced a ranked team all year before this game. I think Gonzaga is still the best team and I like them to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 85-65 Gonzaga. |
|||||||
11-23-21 | Gonzaga -5.5 v. UCLA | Top | 83-63 | Win | 100 | 19 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga. I like Gonzaga to cover the spread against UCLA in this game on Tuesday. Gonzaga is the best team in the country by a lot and I think that they are going to prove it in this game when they destroy UCLA. Gonzaga has been scoring a lot of points this year with 80+ points in all of their games. They have given up less than 60 points in most of their games this year and have only given up 70+ points on 1 occasion and it was against a ranked team. UCLA has not been playing good defense this year giving up 60+ points in most of their games, even giving up almost 80 points to Long Beach State. I think Gonzaga plays better defense and will be able to shut down UCLA when they have possession. UCLA only put up 75 points in their previous game too, and I think that they will not be able to match the Gonzaga offense playing like that. They also have a common opponents in their 1st few games. Both teams have played Bellarmine already, UCLA won by 13 points and Gonzaga won by 42. Gonzaga is just a much better team and I think that they are going to show why they are the best in the country when they destroy UCLA here. I like Gonzaga to cover the spread in this game. T.M. Prediction: 84-72 Gonzaga. |

04-05-21 | Baylor v. Gonzaga OVER 159 | Top | 86-70 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Baylor/Zags OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). This total is definitely low in my opinion. Defense is going to be an afterthought in the Championship Game, as each team tries its best to assert itself. The Bears are at their best when their shooting the three-ball, as they enter as tops in that department in the nation. Gonzaga is the most efficient two-ball shooting team and it's also the highest-scoring team in the nation. Each team is good defensively as well, but note that Gonzaga has seen the total go over in eight of its last ten after scoring 90 or more points in an OT victory in its last outing; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
04-03-21 | Houston v. Baylor UNDER 135 | Top | 59-78 | Loss | -108 | 80 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston/Baylor UNDER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). Both teams are great on the defensive end. Baylor is one of the most efficient three-ball shooting teams in the nation, but the Bears are also No. 28 in adjusted defensive efficiency (they also force the third most turnovers in the country.) Houston is even stronger on the defensive end, as it ranks No. 1 in the country in defensive field goal percentage. Houston is also one of the slowest teams in the nation as far as pace is concerned, ranked No. 331 in average possession length. The stage is set for a highly competitive, but ultimately lower-scoring under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-30-21 | USC v. Gonzaga OVER 153 | Top | 66-85 | Loss | -103 | 10 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: USC/Gonzaga OVER (9* TOTAL BEST OF THE BEST). USC and Gonzaga have both covered all three of their games. The Trojans have been amazingly defensively of late, but now they face the Nation's No. 1 offense, which averages over 90 PPG. The Trojans are going to have their hands full with this up-tempo, efficient Bulldogs offense. USC put up 41 points in each half in its win over Oregon, and there's no reason not to think that it can't keep the foot on the gas here offensively either. I expect a faster-paced, higher-scoring shoot-out; this number is a tad low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-29-21 | Oregon State v. Houston UNDER 129 | Top | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston/Oregon State UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Oregon State is on fire, especially on the defensive end. The Beavers enter off an impressive 65-58 defeat of Loyola Chicago in their last game. Houston clobbered Syracuse 62-46. The reason these two teams are where they are right now? Incredible defensive play, that never gives up and presses from start to finish. Don't expect anything to change here. This number is definitely much too high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-28-21 | Oregon +2.5 v. USC | Top | 68-82 | Loss | -109 | 106 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oregon (10* SWEET 16 GAME OF THE YEAR). Clearly these two teams are evenly matched. The Ducks have won 12 of 13, their only loss comig to these very Trojans in that span. Oregon recovered and went on to win the PAC 12 championship and it's coming off an impressive 95-80 upset win over Illinois last time out. The Ducks' offense is firing on all cylinders and they're playing better perimeter defense as well. Overall the Ducks are hitting 38.2 percent from 3-point land, which ranks 15th in the natoin. Look for the revenge factor to be the difference-maker in this one; however, let's grab the points for sure! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Oral Roberts +11.5 v. Arkansas | Top | 70-72 | Win | 100 | 79 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oral Roberts (10* TRADE-MARK). Oral Roberts continues to get little respect. The Golden Eagles are coming off an impressive 81-78 win over Florida to advance. Arkansas on the other hand had to fight tooth and nail to get by Texas Tech 68-66. I think that the Razorback are gassed here. Oral Roberts has momentum and it also plays with revenge after an 87-76 loss to Arkansas back on December 20th. Oral Roberts' defense has been its weak point, but it's been significantly better over the last month and I expect this one to coe right down to the wire. While the outright is possible, in the end I'll recommend to grab as many points as you can! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-20-21 | Grand Canyon v. Iowa -14.5 | Top | 74-86 | Loss | -103 | 29 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Iowa (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I think Luka Garza and the Hawkeyes are going to lay the hammer down here on the Grand Canyon Antelopes. Grand Canyon earned the 15th seed by winning the WAC vs. New Mexico State last weekend. Iowa earned the No. 2 seed after falling to Illinois in the Big Ten Semifinals. Both teams are sharp defensively, as the Antelopes allow just 61.1 PPG, while the Hawkeyes allow 71.9. Iowa though is 7-0-1 ATS in its last eight as a neutral site favorite, and I simply can't see Grand Canyon's sub-par offense keeping pace with the high-flying Hawkeyes. This one has "BLOWOUT" written all over it! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-19-21 | Morehead State v. West Virginia -13 | Top | 67-84 | Win | 100 | 30 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: WVU (10* OPENING ROUND GAME OF YEAR). Morehead State has won seven in a row and advanced here by beating Belmont in the OVC Tournament Championship game. The Eagles aren't a high-scoring team, but they make up for it on the defensive end by conceding just 63.4 PPG. The Eagles played two ranked teams this year and were annihilated by each, falling 81-45 to Kentucky and 77-44 to Ohio State. WVU has a big chance here to turnaround a poor ending to the regular season. WVU has four players averaging in double figures and I can't see the Eagles keeping pace in the second-half. Note as well that the Mountaineers are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 NCAA Tournament games as a favorite, while Morehead State is just 2-7 ATS in its last nine neutral site contests as an underdog. Look for the hungry Mountaineers to press from start to finish and lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-18-21 | UCLA v. Michigan State UNDER 135 | Top | 86-80 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UCLA/MSU UNDER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). UCLA enters off an 83-79 OT loss to Oregon State in the conference tournament. The Bruins were 17-9 overall, and they come in desperate to break a four-game slide and prolong their run in The Big Dance. The Bruins average 72.8 PPG, while allowing only 68.5. Michigan State got crushed by Maryland in the first round of the Big Ten tournament by a score of 68-57. MSU averages 69 PPG, while conceding 70.6. When MSU pulled off a couple big upsets this year, it was because of its tough defensive play. UCLA is a deliberate offense and I think all of these factors will add up to an under once the final whistle blows! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-14-21 | Ohio State v. Illinois -6 | Top | 88-91 | Loss | -107 | 7 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* BIG TEN TOURNEY GAME OF YEAR.)Â It's all come down to this. These two teams have been great, but Illinois is the better team on both ends of the court and I expect it's offense to be just too much for Ohio State to keep up with down the stretch. Ohio State upset Michigan to advance, and I think it'll be gassed here. The Buckeyes average 77 PPG, and they concede 70.3. The Fighting Illini average 81 PPG, while conceding just 68.6. Illinois is 5-0 ATS In its last five vs. teams with a record above .600 and 7-3 ATS in its last ten as a favorite, while Ohio State is just 2-5 ATS in its last seven overall. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-13-21 | Georgia Tech v. Florida State -4 | Top | 80-75 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Florida State (10* BEST OF BEST). Both teams have been playing reall well to reach this point. Georgia Tech beat Miami to advance (and got an unexpected bye), while FSU took out UNC by three points in its most recent matchup. The Seminoles rank tenth in the entire country in adjusted offensive efficiency and I just can't see the Yellow Jackets keeping pace. I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-12-21 | Ohio State v. Purdue OVER 142.5 | Top | 87-78 | Win | 100 | 5 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Purdue/OSU OVER (10*). Two of the best in the conference/nation go head-to-head here and I'm expecting some offensive fireworks. Both teams come in off victories and each has performed well in this spot, as Ohio State has seen the total go over in eight of its last 11 after a victory, while Purdue has seen the total fly over in seven of its last ten neutral site games. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-11-21 | Cal Poly v. Cal-Irvine UNDER 128 | Top | 51-58 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UC Irvine/Cal Poly UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Cal Poly is only 4-18, and I have a hard time seeing it mustering much of an offensive attack here vs. the 15-8 UC Irvine Anteaters. The Mustangs actually snapped a nine-game slide with a win over CSU Fullerton in the opener of the tournament. UC Irvine enters on a four-game win skein. The Anteaters enter off a commanding 73-58 win over LBSU on Saturday and I expect a similar smothering defensive peformance here as well. These teams met twice in the regular season and the Anteaters held the Mustangs to just 49 and 44 points respectively. This number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: Coming shortly. |
|||||||
03-10-21 | Iowa State v. Oklahoma -11 | Top | 73-79 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oklahoma (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Do I think that Iowa State can break its 17 game slide with an epic upset win here? I do not. Do I think the Cyclones can even compete here vs. Oklahoma? I also, do not. I expect the Sooners to lay the hammer down here from start to finish. Iowa State only averages 65.3 PPG, while conceding 76.6. The Sooners on the other hand average 75.1 PPG, while allowing 69.1. The Sooners won't be taking anything for granted here after losing their final four games of the regular season. Here's the perfect opponent to take their frustrations out on; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-10-21 | NC State v. Syracuse -2.5 | Top | 68-89 | Win | 100 | 4 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Syracuse (10* MONEY-MAKER). NC State is 13-9, it beat Notre Dame by 11 in its finale. Syracuse is 15-8 and it last beat Clemson at home by ten points. Despite having won five in a row, I think that the Wolfpack will stumble here vs. the defensive-minded Orange. In the win over Clemson, Syracuse conceded just 54 points. NC State is fantastic defensively as well, but note that the Orange are 7-2 ATS in their last nine neutral site games as a favorite in the -1.5 to -3.5 points range. Lay the short points, but don't be surprised by a lop-sided destruction! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-09-21 | Southern Miss v. Rice -4 | Top | 52-61 | Win | 100 | 11 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rice (10* MONEY-MAKER). Southern Miss is just 8-16, while Rice is 13-12. The Golden Eagles enter the Tournament off a loss to FAU at home by seven points in their finale. The Owls lost four of their final five games, but they were the much more consistent team throughout the season. Rice is also 6-2 ATS in its last eight vs. a team with a losing SU record, while the Golden Eagles are a poor 1-6 ATS in their last seven overall. Rice ranks 133rd in adjusted offensive efficiency, while Southern Miss ranks 303rd. Look for the Owls to pull away in the second half! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-08-21 | St. Mary's v. Gonzaga OVER 142.5 | Top | 55-78 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga/Saint Mary's OVER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Gonzaga is 24-0 and I expect it to send a statement here, not only to Saint Mary's, but also to the rest of the conference and the rest of the country. Gonazga just beat Saint Mary's 73-59 in its regular season finale. The Gaels will be forced to match pace here with the Bulldogs. Good thing for Saint Mary's here is that it's line-up is 100% healthy. The Bulldogs are the highest scoring team in the nation, averaging 92.9 PPG and I expect them to hit that mark and go over it tonight. Gonzaga has the fourth highest tempo in the nation and I expect for that to be on full display tonight. This total is a little low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-07-21 | Texas Tech v. Baylor UNDER 139 | Top | 73-88 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Texas Tech/Baylor UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Texas Tech is 17-8 after beating Iowa State at home by 27 points in its last outing. Baylor is 20-1 after hammering Oklahoma State at home by 11 in its last outing. Mac McClung and the Red Raidres are catching fire at the exact right time, but clearly Texas Tech will be looking to slow the pace of this one down and get the Bears out of their comfort zone. Texas Tech is ranked 16th in defensive efficiency, while Baylor ranks 25th. Look for this slower-paced game to stay well under the number once the final horn sounds! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-06-21 | Alabama -8 v. Georgia | Top | 89-79 | Win | 100 | 7 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Alabama (10* TRADE-MARK). Alabama annihilated Georgia by a score of 115-82 earlier in the year and I think that another beatdown is in the cards here as well. Alabama is 20-6, averaging 79.2 PPG, while conceding 70.0. Georgia averages 77.4 PPG, while conceding 78.4. The Crimson Tide are 11-6 ATS in their last 17 conference games and I simply can't see the Bulldos slowing down this offensive juggernaut. I'm laying the points and expecting a decisive victory! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-05-21 | Idaho State v. Eastern Washington -12 | Top | 62-75 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Eastern Washington (10* TRADE-MARK). I think the 12-7 Eastern Washington Eagles are the better team here and I like them to find a way to deliver vs. this 11-9 Idaho State Bengals. The Bengals comes in off a 68-63 win over Eastern Washington last time out, which sets this up as an immediate revenge game for the Eagles. Idaho State is averaging 68.7 PPG, while allowing 60.7. The Eagles are averaging 79.5 PPG, while conceding 72.1. Eastern Washington is still 11-4 ATS in its last 15 vs. teams with winning records and in this revenge spot and off the upset loss, all signs point to this one being completely lop-sided in nature; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |

03-04-21 | UCF -3 v. East Carolina | Top | 64-60 | Win | 100 | 13 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UCF (10*). The Pirates somehow managed to beat Houston, but since then they've predictably lost two in a row. Expect that slide to continue here. ECU is 0-4 ATS with four-plus days off and just 1-6 ATS in its last seven following a loss. UCF beat the Pirates by seven points earlier in the year, but all signs point to a much more lop-sided destruction here. Clearly the outright upset is possible, but in the end I'm grabbing the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-03-21 | Connecticut v. Seton Hall +1.5 | Top | 69-58 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Seton Hall (10* TRADE-MARK). This is a huge game for Seton Hall, which is on the cusp of the bubble looking into the Tournament right now. The Pirates come off a poor 61-52 loss to Butler last Wednesday, but I expect them to bounce-back here in this crucial contest. UConn is off an 80-62 win over Marquette, but when these team's met back on February 6th, it was the Pirates who scored the 80-73 victory as 1-point favorites on the road. The Huskies are healthier now, but this one means far more to Hall. I'm backing the Pirates in this one! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-02-21 | Illinois +8 v. Michigan | Top | 76-53 | Win | 100 | 11 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). This could easily be a preview for the Big Ten title game. Illinois scores almost 82 PPG, and whether Ayo Dosunmu plays or not, I think the visiting side will keep this competitive until the final moments. The Illini got the job done against Wisconsin last time out without Dosunmu and I think that Kofi Cockburn can hang with Hunter Dickinson and Franz Wagner. Illinois is also 5-1 ATS in its last six road games vs teams with winning home records. Look for Illinois' unstoppable offense to keep this one close late and grab as many points as you can! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
03-01-21 | Oklahoma v. Oklahoma State +1 | Top | 75-79 | Win | 100 | 13 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oklahoma State (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I like Cade Cunningham and the Cowboys in this one. Oklahoma State picked up a 94-90 road upset win over the Sooners on Saturday and I like them to do it again here. The Sooners are reeling now, on a two-game losing streak and just 2-6 ATS in their last eight after two or more straight SU/ATS losses in a row. That doesn't bode well facing this now confident Cowboys side, which enters on a near-perfect 5-1 ATS run in its last six after scoring 90 or more points in a road OT victory in its last outing. "Momentum" is a very real, tangible factor in sports and at this time of year and the Cowboys enter this contest with a ton of it! The play is Oklahoma State! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-28-21 | Villanova v. Butler +12 | Top | 61-73 | Win | 100 | 21 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Butler (10* SLAM-DUNK). Villanova is 15-3 overall and 10-2 in conference play. No outright upsets here for lowly Butler, but I do think the Bulldogs can take a bite out of the Wildcats and keep this one competitive. Butler is just 8-13 overall and 7-11 in Big East action. Butler's defense though has been good, allowing just 67 PPG. The Bulldogs have covered in four of their last seven games, while Villanova has gone just 1-1-1 ATS in its last three. No outright, but tighther than what this spread would suggest; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-27-21 | Illinois +4.5 v. Wisconsin | Top | 74-69 | Win | 100 | 6 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* MONEY-MAKER). Illinois defeated Wisconsin 75-60 back on February 6th, winning the rebound battle 46-19. Kofi Cockburn had 23 points and 14 boards in the victory. The Badgers had lost two in a row most recently as well, before pulling away for a 68-51 win over Northwestern. The Illini will be without a couple key players, but they're a deep team that I think can fill in the gaps no problem. The Badgers are alos 0-4 ATS in their last four following a SU win, while the Fighting Illini are 4-1 ATS in their last five road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Look for Illinois to rally and find a way to get the job done here! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-26-21 | Southern Illinois v. Loyola-Chicago -19 | Top | 52-60 | Loss | -108 | 12 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Loyola Chicago (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). With the end of the regular season finish line in sight, I look for the 19-4 Ramblers to smash the 11-11 Salukis tonight. Southern Illinois averages 67 PPG and it concedes 69. The Ramblers average 74.3 PPG and allow just 56.1. Loyola Chicago is also 5-1 ATS in its last six at home, while Southern Illinois is just 3-7-1 ATS in its last 11 overall. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-25-21 | Ohio State -4 v. Michigan State | Top | 67-71 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ohio State (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Ohio State is coming off a five-point loss to Michigan, it's first loss in over a month. I like the Buckeyes to get back on track here. I think MSU will take a step back though after back-to-back wins over Indiana and Illinois. Ohio State will be without Kyle Young today, but that just means "next man up." Keep your eyes on EJ Liddell, who leads the BUckeyes with 15.9 PPG. The Spartans have managed two wins in a row, but they still have the 82nd ranked offense. I'm banking on Ohio State's three-point shooting to be too much for MSU to handle down the stretch! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-23-21 | Iowa State v. Baylor -23 | Top | 72-77 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Baylor (10* MONEY-MAKER). No upsets here. With the end of the season in sight, I look for Baylor lay the hammer down from start to finish and really run up the score against the 2-16 Iowa State Cyclones. Baylor is 17-0 and just beat Texas on the road by 14 points. The Cyclones are coming off a ten-point home loss to Oklahoma and have just been terrible all year. Baylor and Jared Butler on the other hand have arguably been the best team in the nation this year. The Cyclones are a poor 6-13 ATS in their last 19 vs. teams with winning percentages above .600 and I expect this very strong trend to continue here; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-22-21 | Syracuse +5 v. Duke | Top | 71-85 | Loss | -106 | 11 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Syracuse (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Syracuse came from behind in the second half to knock off Notre Dame 75-67 in its last outing and I like the Orange to keep that momentum rolling here. Duke is coming off a 66-65 home win over No. 7 Viringian this weekend as a 2.5 point underdog, but the Blue Devils have been the model of inconsistency this season. Syracuse is still in a hunt for an at-large bid to the Tournament. Overall the Orange average 76.5 PPG, while conceding 70.3. Duke is averaging 75.6 PPG, while allowing 71.2. The Blue Devils though are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 at home, while the road team is 4-1 ATS the last five in this series. Two of Duke's latest wins came over lower tier teams. Expect the Orange to find a way to get the job done here! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-19-21 | Old Dominion v. UABÂ -6.5 | Top | 69-76 | Win | 100 | 11 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UAB (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). ODU is 11-5 and UAB is 16-4. ODU is off a 65-45 win over Charlotte. Overall the Monarchs average 69.6 PPG, while allowing 69.4. Clearly the margin of error is pretty slim most nights for ODU. UAB is the hungrier team here after its 69-64 loss to Louisiana Tech. The Blazers average 72.4 PPG, while allowing only 59. ODU is also just 3-9-1 ATS in its last 13 against a team with a winning record, while UAB is 4-1 ATS in its last five at home. I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-18-21 | Stanford v. Washington +10.5 | Top | 79-61 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Washington Huskies (10* MONEY-MAKER). Stanford enters having won three of its last four most recently getting the better of Utah at home by 7 points. Stanford has a winning road record, but I think it'll have its hands full here with this hungry Washington team, eager for a rare conference victory. The Huskies come in under the radar here after losing 16 of 20 games this year. Washington has been competitive in back-to-back ATS victories, losing 64-61 to UCLA as a 9.5 point dog and actually beating Washington State outright 65-63 as a 6.5 point dog last time out. No outright here, but closer than expected; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-16-21 | Northwestern v. Illinois -13 | Top | 66-73 | Loss | -108 | 27 h 40 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* BLOWOUT). Illinois routed Northwestern last month and I expect another beatdown of epic proportions here as well. Northwestern has lost 11 straight, so the temptation to possibly "look past" their lowly opponent, one which they annihilated 81-56, is a definite possibility, but in the end with the regular season so close to finishing, I don't expect any lapse in concentration from the favored side here. And that's the bottom line as far as I'm concerned. Illinois is vastly superior in every facet and as long as it's focussed on the task at hand, it'll have no issues covering this larger spread. And that's exactly what I expect; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-15-21 | East Tennessee State +2 v. Chattanooga | Top | 51-53 | Push | 0 | 10 h 43 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: East Tennessee State (10* MONEY-MAKER). I like the 12-8 Bucs to pull off the minor upset here. East Tennessee State is 12-8 and it's led by Ledarrius Brewer with 16.5 PPG. Overall the Buccaneers average 71 PPG, while allowing 65.8. The Mocs are 16-5 and led by David Jean-Baptistte with 17.2 PPG. Overall Chattanooga averages 74.3 PPG, while allowing 69.8. East Tennessee State has performed well in this spot for bettors by going 15-7 ATS in its last 22 vs. teams with winning records. ETSU plays with revenge here after losing by two points earlier in the year and that extra motivation edge is the difference maker here. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-14-21 | Minnesota v. Maryland -2.5 | Top | 59-72 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Maryland (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Maryland crushed the Gophers 63-49 in the first meeting this year and I expect a similar final discrepancy once the final buzzer sounds this time around as well. Revenge is all well and good in certain situations, but the Gophers have yet to even win a game on the road yet this year. The Terps have the 35th ranked defense and it has several impressive victories this year, including over Illinois and Wisconsin. The Terps are 4-1 ATS the last five in this series, while the Gophers are just 1-6 ATS in their last seven away from friendly confines. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-13-21 | Northwestern v. Rutgers -8 | Top | 50-64 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rutgers (10* BEST OF THE BEST). No upsets here in my opinion. The Northwestern Wildcats are struggling in the Big 10. Overall the Wildcats average 72.9 PPG, while allowing 74.1. The Scarlet Knights had won four of five before losing to Iowa last time out. It beat Northwestern on the road by 8 points earlier, but a bigger blowout is in the cards here in my opinion, as note that Rutgers is 7-2 ATS in its last nine home games following a SU/ATS loss. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-11-21 | Purdue v. Minnesota -3.5 | Top | 68-71 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Minnesota (10* TRADE-MARK). The GOlden Gophers will be hungry to break out of a 3-6 run out of their last nine games. Purdue is 6-2 in its last eight. Both teams are still in contention for a tournament spot. This is a big time revenge game for Minnesota as well, as the January 30th meeting between the schools saw a 19-point Purdue victory. Minnesota though is a "different" team at home, with wins over St. Louis, Iowa and Ohio State. Purdue on the road can't be trusted to deliver against this super hungry, revenge-minded home side in my opinion. Lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-10-21 | Rutgers v. Iowa OVER 151.5 | Top | 66-79 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Iowa/Rutgers OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Rutgers has won four straight and it's back in the mix as far as the Big Ten race is concerned. Iowa won't be lacking for motivation here today gentlemen, because it's dropped four of its last five to fall to 13-6 overall. Teams have begun to figure out how to slow down Luka Garza, but I think he'll be a handful here for the Red Storm. The Hawkeyes won this game 77-75 back on January 2nd, and while I'm expecting another hard-fought competitive affair, I think it'll be a little more wide-open and high-scoring in the end. Both teams are decent defensively, but the re-match points to a S-H-O-O-T-O-U-T in my opinion - the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-09-21 | Notre Dame v. Duke -7 | Top | 93-89 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 25 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Duke (10* MONEY-MAKER). Duke won the December 16th ACC opener 75-65 and I think a similar final discrepancy is in the works here as well. The Irish just gave up a 17 point half time lead to lost 84-82 to the Yellow Jackets and I think they have a predictable letdown here after that disappointing heart-breaker. The Blue Devils come in off back-to-back losses to Miami and UNC, so a win here is crucial if they want to keep their tournament hopes alive. I can't trust either of these teams in a really big game, but the Irish on the road is much too difficult for me to get behind here. Instead, this one favors the hungry home side desperate to break out of its slump; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-08-21 | NC-Greensboro v. Furman -3.5 | Top | 49-68 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Furman (10* MONEY-MAKER). These are two good teams. UNC Greensboro is 13-5 and Furman is 11-6. The Spartans have now won seven in a row and I think that an inevitable letdown is in the cars here. The Paladins on the other hand look to break out of a 1-3 stretch, most recently falling 75-67 to Wofford on Saturday. Furman though is 7-2 ATS in its last nine conference home games after being held to 69 or fewer points in a SU/ATS loss in its last outing. I expect the "hungrier" team to deliver; the play is Furman! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-07-21 | Georgetown v. Villanova -13.5 | Top | 74-84 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Villanova (10* MONEY-MAKER). I think the 5-8 Georgetown Hoyas are going to get steamrolled today from start to finish. The Hoyas come in off a rare win, an 86-79 upset over Creighton. Despite the win, Georgetown still only averages 72.7 PPG, while allowing 74. Villanova won't be "looking past" anyone after its 70-59 loss to St. John's in its last outing. Overall the Wildcats average 77.5 PPG, while conceding only 67.4. This one has "letdown" written all over it for the Hoyas and "bounce back" for the Wildcats; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-06-21 | East Carolina v. Memphis -12.5 | Top | 59-66 | Loss | -107 | 6 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Memphis (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). East Carolina enters off an upset victory over Houston and suffice it to say, I expect an immediate return to mediocrity here. ECU had lost five in a row previous to that. Memphis on the other hand enters on top form, having won two in a row and five of its last six. Memphis is good on both ends, but especially defensively where it concedes an average of only 63.1 PPG. ECU is primed for a major letdown here and note that it is in fact 0-4 ATS in its last four on the road entering this one. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-04-21 | Gonzaga -23 v. Pacific | Top | 76-58 | Loss | -119 | 12 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga (10* MONEY-MAKER). This game was scheduled at the last minute due to COVID issues and I think the "better" team will be more prepared to lay a beatdown here. Gonzaga is 17-0 on the season and I expect it to make the most of this opportunity and to keep up its pace from start to finish. Most recently the Zags spanked Pepperdine 97-75. Gonzaga averages 94.3 PPG. Pacific enters off a heart-breaking 95-87 double OT loss to BYU and I think it'll struggle to find any energy and focus here vs. this juggernaut. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-03-21 | Virginia Tech v. Pittsburgh +3.5 | Top | 72-83 | Win | 100 | 11 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pittsburgh (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Pittsburgh is 8-5 this year overall and 4-4 in conference play. The Panthers though come in starving to break a three-game slide after getting stomped 84-58 by the Irish on Saturday. The Hokies are 13-3 and 7-3 in conference play, but after winning two straight, I think they'll have their hands full with this Panthers team that sports almost identical offensive and defensive numbers. This one purely comes down to "motivation" for me and that's for sure Pittsburgh after the three-straight losses. Pittsburgh's at home as well and while I do think the straight-up outright is possible, in the end I'm grabbing the points. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
02-02-21 | West Virginia -11 v. Iowa State | Top | 76-72 | Loss | -113 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: WVU (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). The 17th ranked WVU Mountaineers got caught looking past Floriday last time out, losing 85-80. Suffice it to say, I don't expect that to happen again here. WVU faces an Iowa State team which is 5-6 this year and which has failed to cover in three straight. The Cyclones are also a poor 1-6 ATS in their last seven home games, while WVU is 7-2 ATS in its last nine after allowing 85 or more points in SU/ATS loss in its last outing. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-31-21 | SMU v. Houston -10 | Top | 48-70 | Win | 100 | 5 h 55 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). SMU held on for a 67-65 win over Memphis last time out, but I expect it to have a much more difficult time here. Houston enters off an 83-60 win over Tulane and I expect a similar final discrepany when the final buzzer sounds in this one as well. Houston won this game 74-60 in early January and I expect an even bigger beatdown here. The Mustangs average 77.5 PPG, while allowing 67.5. The Cougars have won seven straight though, as they average 74.4 PPG, while allowing just 56.5. Look for Houston's superior defense to be the difference-maker here and lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-28-21 | New Mexico v. Fresno State -6.5 | Top | 62-64 | Loss | -105 | 15 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Fresno State (10* MONEY-MAKER). New Mexico is just 5-9, most recently falling by 12 to SJSU. Fresno State is coming off a 22 point loss to Boise State to fall to 5-6. However, the Bulldogs have been better at home and the Broncos are one of the best teams in the nation. Here's the perfect opponent to get untracked against, as the Lobos just allowed 83 points to a pretty mediocre SJSU team. Orlando Robinson is a force to be reckoned with, he averages 17.5 PPG for Fresno State and note that the Bulldogs are near-perfect 10-1 ATS in their last 11 home games following three or more consecutive road games. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-26-21 | Mississippi State v. Tennessee -9.5 | Top | 53-56 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tennessee (10* SEC GAME OF THE YEAR). It's all hands on deck for 18th ranked Tennessee, which comes into this one having lost two straight, most recently a 73-64 setback to Missouri. The Bulldogs come in off a solid cover, but an overall SU 81-73 loss to Alabama on Saturday. The Bulldogs have lost two in a row as well. The Bulldogs give up only 67.1 PPG, but the Vols come in hungry to reverse their fortunes here. Tennessee is on an entirely different level defensively though, as despite back-to-back losses, it's still eighth in the country by conceding only 59.8 PPG. Jaden Springer could be out of the line-up again tonight, but it's not going to matter in my opinion. This one has "blowout" written all over it! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-25-21 | Oklahoma State v. Iowa State +2.5 | Top | 81-60 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Iowa State (10* TRADE-MARK). Oklahoma State at 9-4 is about to lay a proverbial egg here in my opinion. The Cowboys have split their last eight games, they enter averaging 76.2 PPG, while allowing 71.6. The Cylones are the hungrier team for sure though as they look to snap a three-game slide. Iowa State averages 68.4 PPG, while conceding 74.8. The Cyclones though are a near-perfect 7-1 ATS in their last eight after a three-games or longer SU/ATS losing streak. The extra time off between games is going to be beneficial for the home side and while the outright is possible, let's grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-24-21 | Fordham v. Rhode Island -17 | Top | 42-52 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 23 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rhode Island (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Rhode Island won this game 76-75 last year, but I'm expecting a much bigger victory today. Fordham enters this game as the lowest scoring team in the country, averaging only 51 PPG this season. Rhode Island is already 4-1 when playing in Kingston. Note that Rhode Island is also 5-1 ATS in its last six as a home favorite in the -16.5 to -19.5 points range as well. This is a major mismatch in every respect and I expect a blowout of epic proportions! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-22-21 | Louisiana Tech v. UTEP OVER 136 | Top | 74-82 | Win | 100 | 13 h 55 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UTEP/LA Tech OVER (10*). Louisiana Tech is 11-4, averaging 73.8 PPG, and allowing 66.8. UTEP will be desperate here as it looks to break a three-game slide. I always like betting "overs" with motivated teams and both clearly are. The Miners average 72.6 PPG and they allowing 70.3, but note that UTEP has seen the total soar over in eight of its last 12 after three or more SU losses in a row. Considering the situation and these trends, I do indeed feel this number is a tad low; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-20-21 | Tulsa v. Houston -11.5 | Top | 59-86 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston (10* TRADE-MARK). The Houston Cougars are 11-1 overall and 6-1 in league action. Tulsa is 8-4, and 5-2 in AAC play. Houston's only lost one game, and that was to the Golden Hurricane a couple weeks ago. They say "revenge is a dish best served cold" and suffice it to say, I expect a frozen slap to the head here by the Cougars tonight. Since the loss to Tulsa though, Houston has won four in a row and it comes in now ready to lay a beating. Tulsa on the other hand looks primed for a letdown here after squeaking by Memphis 58-57 last time out. Expect the better, revenge-minded home side to keep the foot on the gas from start to finish; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-19-21 | Akron v. Bowling Green -5.5 | Top | 69-57 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bowling Green (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Akron has already had more than a few games cancelled due to COVID. The Zips are 5-3, averaging 79.8 PPG, while allowing 72.13. Bowling Green is 10-3 oerall and 6-1 in conference action. The Green Falcons are averaging 81.62 PPG, while conceding 73.31. We're coming down the home stretch of the regular season and there's no way the Green Falcons are taking the foot off the gas at home in this favorable spot. I expect a lop-sided blowout once the final horn blares, so lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-18-21 | New Mexico v. UNLV UNDER 139 | Top | 46-53 | Win | 100 | 14 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UNLV/New Mexico UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). New Mexico is just 4-7 overall, while UNLV is 3-6. Neither team has gotten out to the start it had hoped for this year, but I expect that to translate into a scrappy, and ultimately defensive affair here as each desperately tries to secure a victory. UNLV scored the 77-54 win over New Mexico on Saturday, and I expect a similar final combined score here as well. Note that the under is 8-1-1 the last ten road games for New Mexico as well. Considering all of the above situational information, I do indeed feel this total is too high; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-17-21 | Memphis -124 v. Tulsa | Top | 57-58 | Loss | -124 | 7 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Memphis Memphis hasn't played since late December, holding on for a tougher than expected 58-57 win over South Florida. The Tigers face a 7-4 Tulsa team which just had a four-game win streak snapped in a humbling 72-53 setback to Wichita State on Wednesday. This is a revenge game for Memphis as well after it fell 56-49 to the Golden Hurricane at home last year. These team's offensive and defensive numbers are similar, but the longer layoff will help the Tigers in my opinion. Conversely, after their first loss in almost a month, I think the Golden Hurricanes are primed for a classic letdown in this spot. I'm banking on the "better" team securing an outright here. T.M. Prediction: 78-63 Memphis |

01-16-21 | Tennessee State v. Tennessee Tech +1 | Top | 71-74 | Win | 100 | 15 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tennessee Tech (10* MID-MAJOR GAME OF YEAR). A couple of terrible teams collide in this one, but it's a matchup which I think that Tennessee Tech will finally step up in and take advantage of. Tennessee State is just 2-7 so far this season, including only 1-4 in its last five. Tennessee Tech is the hungrier team though at just 1-13. The Golden Eagles though have played more games and faced stiffer competition. Not trying to say their a good team that's fallen on some bad luck, but I'll point out that they're 3-1-1 ATS in their lasr five overall. The Tigers on the other hand are a miserable 1-7 ATS in their last eight on the road and only 1-4 ATS in their last five after a SU loss. As I said, considering everything listed above, this one favors the Eagles! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |

01-15-21 | Robert Morris v. Illinois-Chicago -3 | Top | 53-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois Chicago (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). After being on the road for over a month, the Flames return home for the first time in a long time and I expect them to make the most of it here. Here's the perfect opponent as well, vs. newcomer Robert Morris. One player to keep your eyes on today is Teyvion Kirk for the home side, as he posted the third triple-double in UIC history in the Flames' victory over Oakland on Dec. 20th. Robert Morris is overmatched on the road here against a team happy to be in friendly confines. I'm laying the short points and expecting a big rout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-14-21 | San Francisco v. Portland +13 | Top | 79-63 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Portland (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). San Francisco is 8-6 overall and 2-2 in WCC play. Portland is 6-5, but 0-2 in league action. The Dons enter off a 68-60 loss to Loyola Marymount. The Pilots play with revenge here against San Francisco after losing earlier in the year. They also enter focussed after a three-game losing streak, most recently falling 116-88 to Gonzaga. San Fran averages 74.4 PPG, while allowing 68.6, while Portland has allowed 80.5 PPG. That defensive number is skewed though because of the level of competition the last two games. Note that the Dons are 0-4 ATS in their last four road games as well. I like Portland to keep this one close at home and while I'll stop short in calling for the outright, everything points to this one big a classic nail-biter; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-13-21 | Texas Tech v. Texas OVER 133.5 | Top | 79-77 | Win | 100 | 13 h 40 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Texas/Texas Tech OVER (10* TOTAL ELITE OF THE ELITE). This has all the makings of a great game. Suffice it to say, I'm expecting a "shootout," not a "chess match." Texas Tech averages 75.54 PPG, while it allows 58. Texas averages 75.64 PPG, while allowing 63.73. I think that the Longhorns though will be out to get the Red Raiders out of their comfort zone, and that means playing at as high a tempo as possible. I look for these talented offenses to explode in the second half; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-12-21 | TCU v. Oklahoma -7.5 | Top | 46-82 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oklahoma (10* MONEY-MAKER). TCU has dropped back-to-back games by double-digits to Kansas and Baylor. Oklahoma enters off a slim loss to Kansas as well, but it was playing without the services of Brady Manek and Jalen Hill. Both will be out here as well, but the fact that the Sooners took the Jayhawks down to the wire without them in the line-up is a real testament to how deep this Oklahoma team really is. TCU is decent, but not great. It's ranked 84th in defensive effeciency and 90th in defensive efficiency. Oklahoma on the other hand has the 24th ranked offense and 60th ranked defense. Look for the home side to put the foot on the gas from start to finish and pull away for the comfortable cover! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-11-21 | Boise State v. Wyoming +8.5 | Top | 83-60 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wyoming (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). These teams play today, and then again on Wednesday. Boise State has obviously been fantastic in the early going with a 10-1 overall record. Overall the Broncos allow 81 PPG, while conceding 61.27. Wyoming is no push over though at 7-2. The Cowboys average 82 PPG, while allowing 75. I don't think that the home floor advantage can be overlooked here though and while I'm stopping short in calling for the upset, I'll grab the points as I expect this one to come right down to the wire! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-10-21 | Maryland v. Illinois -10 | Top | 66-63 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Terps are bad, going just 1-3 this season vs. ranked teams. Most recently Maryland fell 89-67 to Iowa. The Illini on the other hand enter off a commanding 81-56 victory over Northwestern and I like them to continue to build momentum here as well in this favorable matchup. Maryland averages 72.2 PPG, while allowing 68.5. Illinois is out for a fifth straight win. The Illini average 85 PPG, while conceding only 67.9. Look for Illinois superior play on both ends of the court help it to pull away in the closing moments; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-09-21 | Georgetown v. Syracuse -10 | Top | 69-74 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Syracuse (10* BEST OF THE BEST). Georgetown is off to a 3-7 start. Syracuse is 6-2 overall, but just 1-1 in ACC action. I think the Orange come in focused here as they look to improve their record in this favorable matchup on their home floor. Georgetown enters off a poor 63-55 loss to Butler, shooting a terrible 33.9 percent from the floor. Syracuse will be especially motivated here after losing 63-60 to Pittsburgh at home in its last outing, after previously averaging 101 points in two of three games prior. Note as well that the Orange are 7-0 ATS in their last seven following an ATS loss, while the Hoyas are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven vs. a team with a winning straight-up record. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-07-21 | Washington State v. California +1 | Top | 71-60 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: California (10* MONEY-MAKER). Cal comes in off its first loss of the year, an 86-82 setback in double OT to Arizona and suffice it to say, I think a predictable letdown is imminent here. Cal is off a 73-64 loss to Oregon State, but it's the hungrier team for sure as it seeks its first conference victory still. These teams are evenly matched, but Cal comes in with a plethora of situational advantages working in its favor. Note as well that WSU is just 5-12 ATS in its last 17 following an ATS victory, while the Golden Bears are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 home games. I'm on Cal! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-06-21 | St. John's v. Xavier UNDER 155 | Top | 61-69 | Win | 100 | 11 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Xavier/St. John's UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Xavier hasn't played since December 20th, a 94-83 win over Georgetown. It's last two games have been canceled due to COVID issues. St. John's is 4-6 this year and hwile the total has gone over in eight of its ten games this season, I think that trend ends here vs. the Musketeers. The Red Storm come in off an exhausting 97-94 OT win over the Hoyas in their last game, so I expect them to be a bit flat-footed here as well. Expect these two teams to battle tooth and nail and look for this total to ultimately fall under at the end of the night! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-05-21 | Rutgers v. Michigan State -1.5 | Top | 45-68 | Win | 100 | 13 h 53 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Michigan State (10* GAME OF THE YEAR). MSU got by Nebraska in its last game and I like it to build off that important confidence building victory. Rutgers though has dropped two of three and I think it'll struggle in this difficult road arena. Rutgers is a good team. Better than I thought it would be. The Scarlet Knights only two losses have come against ranked teams in Iowa and Ohio State. This has been a weird and difficult year for all sports, but especially College. And I'd argue it's been hardest on College Basketball players, who got hit just before the Tournament last year. I'm not reading too much into early season results. I think MSU builds off its latest victory, while all signs point to the Scarlet Knights continuing to regress. The play is Michigan State! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-03-21 | Northwestern v. Michigan -8 | Top | 66-85 | Win | 100 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Michigan (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Michigan is going to lose at some point, I just don't see that happening here. Northwestern somehow started the year with three straight upset wins, but it's since come back down to earh, most recently getting smashed 87-72 to Iowa. Michigan is 10-0 after beating Maryland on the road. The Wolverines are vastly superior and have the advantage of experience as well. Finally note as well that Michigan is 7-1 ATS in its last eight after five or more straight SU victories in a row. Look for the Wolverines to pull away in the second half; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-02-21 | Baylor -15 v. Iowa State | Top | 76-65 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 0 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Baylor (10* BIG 12 B OF B). The Bears have won eight straight and I'm not going to stand in front of this train anytime soon. Last year the Bears lost to the Cyclones in an upset, so there's no way that Baylor is going to "look past" its opponent today. In fact, I expect it to just add fuel to the fire. The Cyclones managed a win last time out, but previous to that they'd lost four straight. Expect an immediate return to mediocrity here; I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout from start to finish! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-01-21 | Marshall v. Louisiana Tech -1 | Top | 68-75 | Win | 100 | 11 h 49 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Louisiana Tech (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Louisiana Tech enters off a 68-57 win over Louisiana Monroe to move to 7-2 on the year. Marshall is off back-to-back wins itself. Overall the Herd averages 80.2 PPG and it allows 70.4, while the Bulldogs average 74.8, while conceding 66.4. Louisiana Tech is a much better team at home. As good as Marshall has been, I'll point out as well that it's still just 2-7 ATS in its last nine after back-to-back SU victories. I'm grabbing the short points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-31-20 | Colorado v. USC -1.5 | Top | 72-62 | Loss | -114 | 14 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: USC (10* TRADE-MARK). USC comes in with momentum having won two straight, most recently taking down Santa Clara 86-63 as a ten-point favorite. The Colorado Buffalos on the other hand enter off a poor 88-74 loss to Arizona as two-point underdogs. Previous to that Colorado had won four straight. The Buffs average 77.4 PPG, and they concede 61.3. USC comes in with momentum like I mentioned, but it also comes in motivated as it's lost four straight in this series. The Trojans average 86 PPG, and they allow just 63.7. USC is also interestingly 8-3 ATS in its last 11 games played in December, while Colorado is just 1-5 ATS in its last six on the road. I'm laying the short points, but expecting a decisive victory! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-30-20 | St Bonaventure v. Rhode Island -2 | Top | 57-63 | Win | 100 | 12 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rhode Island (10* BEST OF BEST). I think the Bonnies will move to 2-1 after tonight. St. Bonaventure is so far 2-0, averaging 79 PPG and allowing 71.5. Osun Osunniyi is averaging 19.5 points and 10 rebounds. The Rams are the desperate dog in this fight, as they look to snap a three-game losing streak. Overall they've averaged 72.6 PPG, while allowing 71.6. Fatts Russell is averaging 14.4 points and 3.6 assists. Note as well that the favorite in this matchup is 7-1 ATS the last eight in the series and the home team is 7-1 ATS the last eight in the series as well. The Bonnies have only played two games. The Rams have had a much more difficult path to this point. I'm laying the short points, but expecting a big blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-29-20 | Texas A&M v. LSU OVER 141.5 | Top | 54-77 | Loss | -113 | 11 h 55 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: A&M/LSU OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). This one has over written all over it in my opinion. LSU ranks sixth offensively in the KenPom with a top 10 effective field goal % in the nation (it also runs at an above average pace.) The Aggies of course like to slow things down and grind out victories with a half-court offense, but LSU's pressure is going to take them out of their comfort zone for sure here. The LSU defense though is poor, ranked 118th in the KenPom. The Tigers though will look to take advantage of an A&M team which is allowing opponents to shoot 34.7 percent from range. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-28-20 | Northern Arizona +41 v. Gonzaga | Top | 58-88 | Win | 100 | 14 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Northern Arizona (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I'm of course not suggesting whatsoever that you should "sprinkle a little" on the money line. No need to get into individual player matchups or anything like that, as this is 100% based upon the "situation." The Zags just crushed UVA 98-75, but with a few days off before a Januar 2nd home matchup vs. San Francisco, I believe the Bulldogs finally have a bit of a mental letdown here. Note as well that Gonzaga is just 2-7 ATS in its last nine after scoring 95 points or more in a SU victory in its last outing, while NAU is 7-2 ATS in its last nine after a SU victory (the Lumberjacks are 1-5 this year, coming off their first win of the season.) Of course, no outright, but this is far too many points; the play is Northern Arizona! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-27-20 | DePaul v. Providence -6.5 | Top | 90-95 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Providence (10* TRADE-MARK). I base my selections on many different things. This particular one is primarily based upon common sense and the good old fashioned eye test. Providence has looked solid in the early going, while DePaul is playing only its second game of the season due to COVID 19 issues. It looked dominant in that victory, but teams which have come back from lengthy COVID issues have had a difficult time this year and I expect that trend to continue here after Providence fell to Butler in its latest action. I think the Blue Demons come in flat-footed and rusty; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-26-20 | Virginia +9 v. Gonzaga | Top | 75-98 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: UVA (10* BLOWOUT OF THE MONTH). Am I predicting an outright upset? I'm not. But this is a few too many points to be giving up to this hungry Cavs side, as I expect the visitors to fight tooth and nail and to at the very least, take this one right down to the wire. Gonzaga is the clear cut No. 1 after beating Iowa last week. The Bulldogs though get caught looking ahead to a much more favorable schedule upcoming in my opinion, as note that this is in fact their very final Tier A game on its schedule this season. UVA is 4-1 and it'll be gunning for the outright upset after cruising by William & Mary 76-40 last time out. The Cavs remain one of the best defensive teams in the natoin, allowing just 86.8 points per 100 possessions, which ranks fourth. They're also 3-1-1 ATS in their last five vs. clubs with winning SU records. The Bulldogs on the other hand are a poor 1-4 ATS in their last five after scoring 90 or more points in their previous game. Expect this one to come down to the wire and grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-23-20 | Villanova -4 v. Marquette | Top | 85-68 | Win | 100 | 10 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Villanova (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). At some point Villanova will have a letdown, but I don't think it'll be against an opponent like Marquette. Villanova is averaging 79.5 PPG this year, while conceding just 67.0. Nova is also shooting an efficient 37.21 percent from range. Marquette has played better than its record would indicate. The Golden Eagles average 76.11 PPG, and they allow 69.3. Note though that they're just 3-6 ATS in their last nine at home in this series, while Villanova is a strong 4-1 ATS in its last five overall. Marquette has struggled against the better offenses already in the early going, which doesn't bode well here facing Villanova; I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-22-20 | Tenn-Martin v. Ole Miss -27 | Top | 43-90 | Win | 100 | 25 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ole Miss (10* TRADE-MARK). The Tennessee Martin Skyhawks are 3-1, but that's due almost entirely to the level of competition they've faced in the early going. Ole Miss is 4-1 and I expect it to make an example of TM tonight. In the early going the Skyhawks are averaging 80 points and allowing 73.8, while the Rebels are averaging 71.6 points per game, while conceding only 54.6. This Skyhawks offense is in for a rude awakening, as I look for Ole Miss to improve to 9-3-1 ATS in its last 12 at home with a decisive victory on Tuesday night; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-21-20 | Belmont -9.5 v. Evansville | Top | 72-63 | Loss | -101 | 11 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Belmont (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). No upsets here today, as I look for the 7-1 Belmont Bruins to lay the hammer down onthe 2-3 Evansville Aces. Belmont enters on top form having won four straight and averagnig 80 points and allowing 69.1 per contest. Luke Smith is averaging 17.6 points and 2.5 assists for the visiting side. Evansville averages just 65.2 PPG, while conceding 72.8. Clearly that's not a recipie for long or short-term success. The Bruins are also 6-1 ATS in their last seven on the road, while the Purple Aces are a disappointing 2-7-2 ATS in their last 11 at home. At some point Belmont is going to have a letdown, but that "some time" isn't going to be tonight; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-20-20 | Delaware State +32 v. Georgia Tech | Top | 69-97 | Win | 100 | 9 h 5 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Delaware State (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I'm of course not suggesting that Delaware State will win this game outright or anything, but I do absolutely expect the 3-3 Yellow Jackets to go up early, and to then take the foot off the gas in the second half as they get ready for ten whole days off, before facing North Carolina at home on the 30th, followed by Wake Forest on January 3rd. This pick is primarily based upon the situation, but it also has some strong ATS trends to support it, as note that Delaware State is 7-2 ATS in its last nine non-conference road games as a 30 points or greater underdog. I'm grabbing the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-19-20 | Gonzaga -190 v. Iowa | Top | 99-88 | Win | 100 | 3 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Gonzaga MONEY LINE (10* MONEY-MAKER). Sorry, I'm dealing with power/technical issues due to a severe storm in the Pacific Northwest right now, so I'm not able to properly give my usual extremely detailed analysis today. Iowa comes in off a 106-53 home win over NIU, but I think it'll struggle here vs. this elite level competition. Luke Garza and the Hawkeyes lead the nation in scoring with 100.5 PPG, but those numbers are skewed due to the level of the competition. Gonzaga has been off for two weeks, so I expect it to be extremely prepared here. Fatigue is a factor for Iowa. Also note that the Hawkeyes are just 2-7 ATS in their last nine after scoring 100 or more points in a SU/ATS victory in their last outing. The Bulldogs depth and balance will prove to be too much for Iowa to handle in the end. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-18-20 | Loyola-Chicago v. Richmond OVER 141.5 | Top | 73-75 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Loyola Chicago/Richmond OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Richmond is 5-1, it is pretty good offensively by averaging 77 points per game, but the Spiders have to be, as they concede 70.3. Loyola-Chicago won't be intimidated here as it enters at 3-1, averaging 76 PPG and conceding 60.9. These teams both play at a very high-pace and I expect that to translate into offensive production on the court today (note that Richmond has seen the total go over in eight of its last 11 overall, while Loyola Chicago has seen the total go over in ten of its last 11 overall.) Look for these two talented teams to eclipse the number before the final horn blares! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-17-20 | Long Island v. Sacred Heart +4 | Top | 72-87 | Win | 100 | 7 h 13 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Sacred Heart (10* MONEY-MAKER). The Sharks won this game last night, so I expect the 0-2 Pioneers to bounce back and at the very least, take this one down to the final moments. I think LIU takes a step back here after yesterday's 20-point win, a contest which was close at half-time. Bettors can take advantage of this spot though, as the Sharks are indeed a poor 2-5 ATS in their last seven following a SU win, while the Pioneers are 4-2-1 ATS in their last seven following a SU loss of 20 points or more. Grab the points, but don't be shocked by an outright either! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-16-20 | Sam Houston State v. Texas -28 | Top | 63-79 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Texas (10* TRADE-MARK). I like the 5-1 Longhorns to bury the 3-4 Bearkats today. Sam Houston State comes to down off a poor 88-66 loss to LSU. Demarkus Lampley was a lone bright spot in the poor effort, finishing with 16 points. Sam Houston State's averages are skewed due to early pathetic competition. Texas enters off a 74-63 win over Texas State last time out. The Longhorns only allow 60.5 PPG this year and Sam Houston State is just 1-5 ATS in its last six road games. Texas? It's 5-1 ATS in its last six at home. The Bearkats have stumbled against stiffer competition this year and I expect that trend to continue vs. his defense-minded Texas team; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-15-20 | Furman v. Alabama -5 | Top | 80-83 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Alabama (10*). Furman is 5-1 and getting too much credibility in this one though in my opinion from the oddsmakers. So far the Paladins average 85.8 PPG and allow 61.7. Of course, the level of competition needs to be taken into account. TH eTide have splite their last four games. Alabama enters averaging 75 PPG and conceding 69.6. Alabama hasn't lived up to expectations early, but this is a big yardstick test for it and I expect it to make the most of this opportunity. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-14-20 | Sam Houston State v. LSU -25 | Top | 66-88 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: LSU (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The 3-3 Sam Houston Bearcats average 81.6 PPG, while allowing 72.6. Zach Nutall is averaging 22.5 points and 5.2 rebounds per contest. The LSU Tigers are 3-1 and they enter averaging a whopping 89.3 points, while conceding just 66. Cameron Thomas is averaging 22.3 points and 2.8 rebounds for LSU. The Bearkats are overmatched completely here and I think that LSU will keep the pressure on in the second half. Finally note that Sam Houston State is a poor 0-5 ATS in its last five on the road and 0-8 ATS in its last eight overall, while the Tigers are 4-1 ATS in their last five at home. No upsets here, only outright domination; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-13-20 | St. John's v. Georgetown OVER 151.5 | Top | 94-97 | Win | 100 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Georgetown/St. John's OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The Red Storm are 5-2 and the Hoyas are 2-3. The Red Storm were just 17-15 last year. These teams split a pair of games last year, each winning on the other's floor. The Red Storm average 80.3 PPG and they allow 75.6. Georgetown averages 71.0 PPG and it allows 68.8. The Hoyas were just 15-17 last year. Georgetown enters off a 76-63 loss to Villanova, but the Hoyas have seen the total go over the number in eight of their last 11 home games after allowing 75 points or more in a SU/ATS loss in their last outing. I look for these two hungry conference rivals to combine for more than enough to push this total over the posted number! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-12-20 | UMKC v. Toledo -11.5 | Top | 57-64 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toledo (10* TRADE-MARK). The Roos are on a three-game losing streak and I think they're ripe for the picking here as well. UMKC is averaging 85.6 PPG and it's allowing 71, but those numbers are skewed due to the level of competition in their opening two wins. The Rockets are averaging 74 PPG and they're conceding 69.3. Toledo has three double-digit scorers, with Setric Millner Jr. leading the way with 15.5 points and eight boards and they're also 7-2 ATS in their last 11 non-conference home games as a favorite in the -10.5 to -13.5 points range. I think Toledo's depth is the difference; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
12-11-20 | San Jose State +18.5 v. St. Mary's | Top | 61-96 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Jose State (10* TRADE-MARK). St. Mary's is 5-1 and San Jose State is 1-0. I think the Gaels take the foot off the gas in the second half though. SJSU has had a couple of early cancelations. The Gaels have won five straight, but winning leads to complacency. And with a game vs. lowly Eastern Washington up next, the Gael's have hit a very vanilla part of their schedule, before they get into the Conference action. I think this sets up as a natural letdown spot for the home side. The Gaels are also just 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight vs. teams with a winning SU record, while SJSU is 7-2 ATS in its last nine as a road dog in the +17.5 to +21.5 points range. No outright, but a solid cover, so grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |

12-10-20 | Long Beach State v. San Francisco -16 | Top | 62-107 | Win | 100 | 14 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Francisco (10* TRADE-MARK). Long Beach State is 1-1 and I think it'll stumble here vs. the 4-2 San Francisco Dons. San Fran enters on top form after back-to-back victories over Nevada and Cal Poly. LBSU used to be a mid major that needed to be respected, but the talent level has dropped off considerably from years past. San Francisco has depth, talent and experience working in its favor here; also note that it's 5-1 ATS in its last six following a SU win, while LBSU is just 4-10-1 ATS in its last 14 on the road. I'm laying the points and expecting a decisive victory! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |

12-09-20 | California v. Pepperdine -4.5 | Top | 62-74 | Win | 100 | 12 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pepperdine (10* TRADE-MARK). Both teams had big expectations coming in and so far neither has lived up to the hype in the early going. That said, I think this is a contest which definitely favors the Waves. Cal is 2-3, as the GOlden Bears have lost to Oregon State, UCLA and Arizona State. Pepperdine is 2-2, as it's lost to UCLA and San Diego State. Pepperdine had a 34-20 lead at half time over the Aztecs, but it inexplicably fell apart in the second half. Note though that the Waves are 4-1 in their last five at home and Cal is just 1-5 ATS in its last six on the road. I'm laying the points and expecting a lop-sided destruction! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |

12-06-20 | Wyoming v. Oregon State -9 | Top | 76-73 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oregon State (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Wyoming enters off a tougher than expected 94-83 OT win over Incarnate Word and I think they'll predictably stumble after that victory and in this difficult non conference matchup. The Beavers on the other hand will be eager to get back to work here after suffering their first loss of the year in a 59-55 setback to Washington State. Oregon State has allowed just 54.7 PPG and I have a hard time seeing the Cowboys mustering much of an offensive attack here. Wyoming is also just 2-7 ATS in its last nine on the road, while Oregon State is 7-1 ATS in its last eight at home. I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout of the monster variety! T.M. Prediction: Coming shortly. |

12-05-20 | Illinois-Chicago +6 v. Ball State | Top | 66-68 | Win | 100 | 6 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Illinois Chicago (10* TRADE-MARK). I think this one is going to come right down to the final moments. The Flames of UIC are now 5-2 ATS in their seven games this year. Ball State is trending in the other direction right now, starting 0-2. UIC is 3-0 and it's getting balanced play across the board. Last year Ball State was 18-13, but after getting smashed by Michigan last time out, I think the Cardinals come out flat here as well. Also note that Ball State is a poor 1-5 ATS in its last six home games vs. a team with a winning road record, while the Flames are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 road contests. Grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
