Sunday, December 14

New Orleans over TORONTO by 14
Here’s a matchup of two teams driving down different roads this season.
After dominating during the NBA pre-season, the Hornets have picked up
right where they ended. Meanwhile, the Raptors spoiled a 3-0 start and have already made a coaching change. At press time they are a measly 3-6 SU and 2-7 ATS at home this season and appear to be a team in disarray. To make matters worse, the Dinosaurs are 0-5 ATS at home on Sundays while the Hornets have bagged the cash in 7 of their last 8 visits north of the border. Back the better team here tonight.

Tom's NFL System Play of the Week!

NFL Late Season Awesome Encore
Handicapping the last three weeks of the NFL regular season can be tricky. The linemaker has made adjustments for those teams still in the playoff hunt and the pointspreads on those battles carry little value.
Trying to determine the mindset of a team that has been eliminated is no easy task either. Will those not making it to the post season play the role of a spoiler or toss in the towel? Thankfully, my pro database has helped me determine what situations are significant and profitable at this time of the year.
The technical gem that I’m about to break down isn’t that flashy. The parameters that make it click are simplistic. However, this NFL Late-Season Awesome Encore really packs a pointspread punch. Take a look!
Since 1980, non-division regular season hosts from game 14 to game 16 are a respectable 66-44 ATS provided they enter off a straight up underdog win. Momentum continues to be an effective tool when it comes to handicapping the NFL and, off an upset win late in the season, teams tend to carry over that quality of play especially at home in a non-division situation. Fortunately for us, there are two squads locked into this “play on” set this weekend: Miami and Philadelphia.
There are a couple of parameters that really make this system pop. First, if our side checks in off a straight up underdog win over a division opponent, technical treat improves to an incredible 39-16 ATS! Miami enters off a win over Buffalo while Philadelphia checks in off a victory over New York which means the Fish and Green Birds apply to this tightener.
Finally, with our 39-16 ATS in hand, a 7-7 ATS record can be removed if we eliminate bad teams. If our host carries a won/loss percentage of .400 or better, this system explodes to a nifty 32-9 ATS! Guess what? Both the Dolphins and Eagles apply!
Good luck with Miami and Philadelphia (on Monday) and be sure to check back next week for the first of three powerful college bowl systems.

[Mr. IWS]

EXPERT: Lee Kostroski
TITLE: 10* NFL Total of the Month - 83% run!
REASON FOR PICK: PLAY ON 10* Under the total, Cleveland vs. Philadelphia, 8:30 PM EST

Cleveland’s offensive struggles are the main reason we are taking the UNDER on this game. With Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn both sidelined with injuries, the Browns will start Ken Dorsey at quarterback for the second straight week. Last week in a 9-28 loss to the Titans, Dorsey was a mere 22/43 for 150 yards and 1 interception. We don’t see his production improving this week vs. a stingy Eagles defense. Even before Dorsey was handed the starting job, the Browns were struggling to score points. They have totaled just 21 points in the past three weeks (just 7 points per game). Their total yardage numbers the last three games are 240, 192 and 178. The Cleveland offense has been horrendous and now they face off against the 4th ranked defense in the NFL. The Eagles stop unit has completely shutdown two of the best offenses in the NFL the last two weeks. They held Arizona to just 20 points and 260 total yards two weeks ago. Last Sunday they topped the Giants 20-14. New York put together only 211 yards of total offense against this red hot defense. Not only that, their 14 points were even a bit deceiving as they scored one TD on a 71-yard blocked field goal return and the other TD came with just 20 seconds remaining in the game.

Back to the Browns and their defense which has actually been playing fairly well. Before giving up 28 points last week to the Titans, the Browns held Houston to just 16 points and Indianapolis to just 10 in back to back weeks. Cleveland is actually 3rd in the entire NFL in defensive efficiency allowing just one point for every 17 yards gained by their opponent. They have allowed 17 points or less in six of their last ten games. This team is decent on defense and really bad on offense. That combination leads to low scoring games.

The Eagles were in shambles after their 29 point loss to the Ravens, but as we mentioned, they bounced back nicely with big wins against the Cardinals and the Giants the last two weeks. Philly has been riding on the back of Brian Westbrook for the last two weeks as he has totaled 240 yards rushing. Eagle coach Andy Reid has really decided to lean on the run down the stretch and that has amounted to 81 rushes in the last two games. Don’t expect him to change his philosophy which has led to two straight wins. With the Browns ability to stop the pass (Cleveland has allowed an average of 185 yards passing the past three weeks, allowing just 3 touchdowns and forcing 6 interceptions), we will get an over abundance of the Philly ground game here.

Philly doesn’t have the strongest receiving corps to begin with, and they will have to use Westbrook a lot to consistently move the ball in this game. Running the ball will speed the game up and keep the score low. Last week, the Titans ran the ball 43 times for 235 yards in their 28-9 win. Both teams are a combined 11-2 UNDER in their last 13 games in December and we see that trend continuing on Monday night. Look for Philly to grab a lead and just sit on it using their running game. Go with the UNDER.

Best of Luck, Lee.

Lee Kostroski 10* picks are usually pretty good ones.

Sunday's NFL winnners ...
25 Dime: COWBOYS (minus the points vs. Giants) ... NOTE: I highly doubt that this number will climb to 3 1/2, but if for some reason it does, buy the half-point with Dallas and only lay 3. Do NOT get beat on the hook in this game!


Forget about the latest saga involving Mr. Me, Terrell Owens, and the supposedly fractured Cowboys locker room. And forget about any lingering hangover from Dallas’ blown four-quarter lead at Pittsburgh last week. It means nothing. All that matters is this is THE biggest game of the year for the Cowboys, and I’m fully confident that they’ll be ready to play football tonight. And if they do indeed bring their A game, then we’ve got ourselves tremendous value with the home team.



First off, don’t forget that Dallas is 5-1 at home this season, with the last two victories – both with Romo back under center – being by a combined score of 69-31. Yes, the opponents were the 49ers and Seahawks, I get that. But have you seen what San Francisco has done the last two weeks, winning at Buffalo and knocking off the Jets last Sunday? And did you see Seattle, with its backup quarterback, take New England to the wire a week ago? No, I’m not suggesting that the 49ers or Seahawks – two teams that the Giants also crushed at home earlier this season – are in the same league as the defending champions. I am saying those were pretty thorough whippings by the Cowboys, who outgained the Niners and Seahawks by 229 total yards



And even though they gave away that game against the Steelers last week, we can all agree that Dallas outplayed a Super Bowl contender on the road in frigid conditions. And had they pulled out the win, the Cowboys would be riding a four-game winning streak right now and we’d probably be laying more than 5 points tonight. So indeed there is line value with Dallas tonight.



Meanwhile, hours before Dallas outplayed the Steelers last Sunday, the Giants got completely run over at home by the Eagles. Some are willing to chalk up the loss to the distractions caused by the Plaxico Burress incident. Not me. When you get outgained by 120 total yards (331-211), when you’re the league’s #1 rushing team and you get outrushed 144-88, when you managed just 14 first downs (and allow 24), and when your quarterback – playing his second game without his favorite, most reliable 6-foot-7 target – goes 13-for-27 for 123 yards, well, you can’t blame that all on distractions. And don’t be fooled by the 20-14 final score, either. The Giants got one touchdown on a blocked field goal return on the final play of the first half, then got a garbage TD with 20 seconds left to make the score more respectable.



Honestly, guys, I think the Giants got exposed a bit in that Eagles loss, especially offensively. With Brandon Jacobs hurt (and he’s been ruled out for this game), New York’s vaunted ground game did nothing. And with no Burress on the field, Philadelphia’s defense didn’t have to mask coverages with a double team, meaning Eli Manning had fewer open options in the passing game. Now, without Burress and without Jacobs – both of whom made big contributions in the Giants’ 35-14 win over Dallas five weeks ago when the Cowboys didn’t have Romo – New York must try and solve a Cowboys defense that has been outstanding recently. Since the Giants’ debacle, that D has given up 15.3 points per game, and that includes the Steelers’ INT return for a touchdown last week that obviously wasn’t the fault of the Dallas defense.



In the last three games alone, the Cowboys have given up just 288 total yards per game, including a scant 58.7 rushing yards per game. During that same span, the Dallas offense has produced 27.3 points and 381.3 yards per game, including 286.3 passing ypg from Romo. Meanwhile, the Giants defense has been torched by the pass the last three weeks, allowing an average of 254.3 ypg to Kurt Warner, Jason Campbell and Donovan McNabb. The point: I see Romo bouncing back from last week’s disaster at Pittsburgh, and I don’t care what WR or TE he’s throwing to.


Bottom line: While the Giants are playing for home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, and that’s important, the Cowboys are playing to save their season. They’re at home, where all five of their wins have come by four points or more, while the Giants are playing their fourth road game in the last six weeks, with three of those being against divisional foes. If the Cowboys come ready to play from the start, I not only see them winning, I see them winning handily.

Sunday's NFL winnners ...

15 Dime: TEXANS (plus the points vs. Titans)

At this late point in the season, it’s important to identify the attitudes and motivations of teams as much as it is to break down the actual matchups. When it comes to teams that are out of the playoff hunt, like the Texans, it’s critical to determine which are still giving an honest effort on every play and which are going through the motions. Clearly, after three consecutive victories and four straight spread-covers (three of which came on the road), Houston falls into the category of a squad that’s still giving its all.



At the same time, Tennessee wrapped up a division title and a first-round bye last week and is a virtual lock for home-field advantage, making this a major flat spot for Jeff Fisher’s team. Frankly, I just can’t envision the Titans, who are hitting the road for the fourth time in the last six weeks, having that mental edge today. Simply put, it’s only natural in a grueling 16-week season for teams – even great ones like the Titans – to have an off week, and this would seem to be the perfect storm for such an occurrence: Fourth road game in six weeks, coming off clinching a division title for the first time in years, facing a gritty and improving divisional opponent and missing one Pro Bowl-caliber defensive lineman (Kyle Vanden Bosch is out for the Titans) and another who is banged up (Albert Haynesworth is questionable).



Also, when these squads met back in Week 3 in Nashville, the final score read Titans 31, Texans 12, but it was a misleading final for two reasons: 1) the Texans were playing their first game after dealing with the devastation of Hurricane Ike, not to mention coming off an unscheduled bye week filled with non-football-related distractions; and 2) the Texans marched inside the Tennessee 11-yard line five different times but only managed 13 points (1 TD, 2 FGs), while being stopped on downs twice and having an interception returned 99 yards for a score. In fact, from a yardage perspective, Houston was every bit as good as Tennessee that day, finishing with 317 yards (146 rushing, 5.2 yards per carry) and giving up 343 yards (154 rushing, 4.3 ypc).



This time around, the Titans are catching Houston fully focused and playing great football. With last week’s 24-21 win at Lambeau Field – they outgained the Packers by 162 yards! – Houston won for the third straight week and the sixth time in the last nine weeks. In those nine contests, the Texans’ offense has put up 24 points or more six times. More impressively, though, over the last three weeks, the defense has really stepped up, giving up just 44 total points – or 30 points if you take away two garbage-time touchdowns to Jacksonville two Mondays ago.



Texans QB Matt Schaub returned from injury last week and lit up the Packers for 414 passing yards, and his presence makes rookie RB Steve Slaton that much more dangerous (Slaton gashed a really good Titans defense for 116 yards on just 18 carries in the first meeting). Houston is 6-1 ATS in its last seven games as a home underdog and 5-1 ATS in its last six games in December. Also, despite the Week 3 result, the ‘dog has dominated this rivalry of late, cashing in seven of the last 10 meetings, with five outright upsets.



Take the points, though I’ve got a strong feeling we’re not even going to need them, as I think the surging Texans (4-2 at home this year) will catch Tennessee napping.

Sunday's NFL winnners ...

5 Dime: 49ERS (plus the points vs. Dolphins) ... NOTE: If this line jumps to 6 1/2, play it smart and protect yourself by buying the half point and grabbing seven, which is obviously a key number in the NFL.

Along with the Falcons, the Miami Dolphins are in the midst of one of the most remarkable seasons I’ve ever witnessed in the NFL. For them to go 1-15 last year – with that lone victory coming in overtime – to 8-5 and atop the AFC East standings in 12 months is beyond stunning. But if there’s one legitimate criticism that can be charged against the Dolphins it’s their inability to handle the role of favorite. Miami has been a chalk six times this season and has covered the spread only once, and that was a 25-16 come-from-behind home win over the Bills as a scant one-point favorite (and in some spots, that game closed as a pick-em). On the other hand, since losing their first two games to the Jets and Cardinals, the Dolphins have cashed five straight times as an underdog.



Well, today, they’re laying almost a touchdown against the 49ers, who fall into the same category as the aforementioned Houston Texans: a team that’s going all out on both sides of the ball despite having nothing but pride for which to play. San Francisco has won back-to-back games for the first time this year, and it was against two teams from Miami’s division (10-3 road win at Buffalo; 24-14 home win over the Jets). Over their last five games, the 49ers are 4-1 ATS, with three outright wins. The most impressive had to have been last week’s 10-point beat-down of the first-place Jets. San Francisco finished with 375 total yards (100 rushing) and held New York to just 182 yards (59 rushing), and Niners QB Shaun Hill (275 passing yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT) clearly outplayed Brett Favre (137 passing yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT).



Now, I admit that this is a difficult travel spot for the 49ers, as they’re making their third trip to the East Coast since Oct. 19. They’re also on the road for the third time in the last four weeks, having previously trekked to Dallas and Buffalo in consecutive weeks at the end of November. That said, San Francisco is the ONLY team from the West Coast to win a game in the Eastern Time Zone this season (that seven-point win at the Bills). They’re playing with a lot of heart and a ton of confidence, and new coach Mike Singletary clearly has pushed the right motivational buttons. And even if RB Frank Gore is a no-go, I still think San Fran can hang in this game against Miami, which has struggled to beat the likes of the Seahawks (21-19) and Raiders (17-15) at home, as well as the lowly Rams (16-12) on the road. Take the points.

Good 5-0 yest, lets build from there,

NFL
ATLANTA-2.5 -125

Revenge game here for Falcons. Ryan and Turner played their worst game against the Bucs early on. We have been on the Falcons a lot this year, especially at home. Bucs coming off a short week to face a good, young, revenge minded Falcons team that will have a lot of home cooking going on. Carolina may have exposed the Bucs a little as well. I expect a great effort from the Falcons and Matt Ryan has been sensational for a rookie. Huge game to get in the playoff hunt for Falcons being a game back. Big day for the franchise. They have been one of the best teams in the NFL at home putting up 32 points a game. FALCONS-2.5

ARIZONA CARDS-2.5 -125

This line will probably go up so get on it soon and get the 2.5. Tav. Jackson will be starting for the Vikes. I do not trust him yet. Before he was benched he was just completing a little over 50% of his passes. We also have a banged up Allen for the vikes which is a big loss if your best pass rusher is not 100% going against Warner. Quietly the Cards have the 10th best D in the NFL. Everyone talks about Warner, Boldin, Fitzgerald, but this D can play. They will still be pumped to play because they are still playing for seeding. The crowd will be excited because they have clinched a playoff berth. They will put 8 in the box to stop AP and Tavaris should be good for a couple of mistakes. Just need a FG to win ARIZ-2.5
another update around 930 pac, remember we are on the

Ravens-2.5 as well (from other day)

ATLANTA –3 over Tampa Bay SPORTSINTERACTION

The Bucs rely heavily on a sound running game combined with a great defense but all of that was thrown out the window last week when the Panthers completely exposed them. These Bucs are just not the same team without Earnest Graham, as Warrick Dunn and/or Cadillac Williams just can’t maych up against him nor can they carry the load. The Bucs are not built to come from behind either and all the above-mentioned factors suddenly makes this team very vulnerable. Also, the Bucs have struggled on the road all year and now they’ll play back-to-back road games on a short week and that makes this assignment even more difficult. The Falcons still aren’t getting the respect they deserve but the fact remains that these Dirty Birds have been juggernauts in their own barn. They’re 5-1 at home and all but one of their home wins have been by 13 points or more. Atlanta lost in Tampa in week 2 but that was then and this is now. The Falcons are much more seasoned, Matt Ryan has a bunch more games under his belt, the whole team is more confident and they can really put themselves in a favorable position to make the playoffs with a win here. The Bucs are 4-1 over its last five games but they’ve been winning ugly and unimpressively and it all came to a head last week in Carolina. A similar result to that game could be in store for them again. Play: Atlanta –3 (Risking 3.15 units to win 3).



BALTIMORE –2 over Pittsburgh SPORTSINTERACTION

Is it me or do the Steelers have horseshoes up their butts? Some may call them opportunistic but they seem to get every break and every bounce go their way. How they came out victorious last week is incredible, as they were virtually written off for dead. They also pulled a rabbit out of their hats against San Diego in that bizarre 11-10 win. Then there was the week 4, 23-20 win over these same Ravens, that the Steelers had no business winning either. The Ravens controlled the game and time of possession in a game that the Steelers managed just 11 first downs. They’ve also had trouble with both Jacksonville and Cleveland but once again they prevailed in both games. Now, after an incredibly physical, not to mention emotional game, they’ll head to Baltimore to play the just as physical Ravens and you can be damn sure the Ravens will be ready. Once again Big Ben will be pressured over and over and his magical act of turning nothing into something is about to end. The Steelers offensive line is a complete mess and there’s just no way, after last week’s war, that the Steelers defense will compensate for the lack of offense. This venue has been unkind to the Steelers, as they’ve dropped five in a row here and now more then ever, the Steelers are ripe as hell and this quality host will take full advantage. Play: Baltimore –2 (Risking 3.3 units to win 3).

This line is already moving towards 3 so get on it early.

2500* - NY Jets,

1000* - Tennessee Titans




2 weeks ago, after the Jets had routed Tennessee at Tennessee, Brett Favre and company looked like a lock to win the AFC. My how things have changed, as New York has suffered back-to-back losses to Denver, and at San Francisco to come back to the pack. But, and this is a big BUT...the Jets still control their own destiny. A win and cover today against the fading, and faded Bills is way in order, as Buffalo has just 1 win and cover in their last 7 games, and their offense has been held to just a field goal in each of their last pair of losses. Injuries have taken their toll on Buffalo, and it is doubtful to me that after losing their big division showdown with Miami last week, the Bills are going to be too inspired on the road today once they get behind. This one will turn into a rout before long. New York won a 26-17 decision at Buffalo as the 5-point dog back on November 2nd, as the Jets forced some timely turnovers en route to the upset win.
Expect New York to use the same formula they used in that win Sunday afternoon. Pounding the running game with Jones, and Washington against the banged up Bills defense, and Favre mixing in some safe play-action to open this game up. The line may seem a little "steep", but with Buffalo's offense showing just 17-points or less in 5 of their last 7 games (including the loss to the Flyboys), the Bills just aren't in the hunt come the end of this one.



Lay it, lay it, lay it!


2500? One-and-Only AFC Game of the Year on the New York Jets!



2500? - New York Jets











I am still scratching my head over the line in today's Titans-Texans game!?!?!?!?

Either this is the biggest sucker play, or NOBODY believes in this 12-1 Tennessee team?

Well, I am sold on the Titans, as not only are they 12-1 straight up, but they are 11-2 against the spread this season. Included is a 31-12 rout of Houston as the 4 1/2-point home favorite back on September 21st, the Titans 5th straight win, and cover against Houston.
Houston appears to be coming on strong, and lots of folks are intrigued by their "upset" win at Lambeau Field last week, but Matt Schaub did turn it over a few times, and Houston's recent uptick comes against some bad teams - see Jacksonville, and Cleveland!
The Titans are a perfect 6-0 against the spread on the road this year, and a win today secures home-field advantage through the playoffs! With games against the Steelers, and the Colts on-deck, you can bet that Jeff Fisher WANTS this to be the clincher.

Lay the small road wood.

Steven Budin-CEO SUNDAY'S PICK 25 DIME

NEW YORK GIANTS


Note From Steve Budin:

This price has been +3 across the board almost the entire week.

If you have New York +3, I suggest you buy up the 1/2 point to +3 1/2 so you get the win should New York only lose by three.

If for some reason you get New York at +2 1/2 - even after shopping around - buy up the 1/2 point to +3 so you get the push should New York only lose by a field goal.

Take it from a former bookmaker and the guy who fathered the offshore sportsbook industry that too many gamblers and handicappers needlessly buy half points on all types of numbers. But the ONLY number that matters from a bookmaker's perspective is 3 because of overtime and that's why its the only number they (bookmakers) charge the extra juice for. Once again, we're using the power of money - our bulging bankroll - against the bookmaker in this case.

Why not buy a little extra insurance at a few cents on the dollar to protect your investment? As CEO of a multi-million dollar company I can tell you it's the right move, just like I knew it was the right move when as a bookmaker I saw smart players doing the same thing when the opportunity presented itself

4:15 PM -- McAfee Coliseum
New England by 21-24 Points
Starting Time: 4:15 Comments: New England (8-5) is tied with both the New York Jets and the Miami Dolphins for first place in the AFC East and is in an absolutely must win situation. There is no team anyone would rather face in this circumstance than the Oakland Raiders (3-10), an obviously confused team that has little talent and less coaching. In watching the Raiders of late, it is a simple fact its receivers and quarterback are not on the same page and the defensive backfield blows coverage after coverage. New England coach Bill Belichik will come with a game plan to rip the Raiders to pieces—and the figures say the Patriots will do just that.

Minnesota's Adrian Peterson is the best running back in the NFL and Arz 's run defense is average.
Cardinals have trouble with physical teams.

Oakland +7
NE is racked with injuries on defense, they have struggled on the road vs losing teams game 13 on out, going 2-13 ATS.


Buffalo vs NYG Under 41
Winds and cold weather will be a factor here. The Bills have only scored 6 points the last 2 weeks and Favre hasn't thrown a TD pass in the last 2 weeks

Game: Green Bay Packers @ Jacksonville Jaguars - Sunday December 14, 2008 1:00 pm
Pick: 3 units ATS: Green Bay Packers -1 (-120)



This game features two teams having very disappointing seasons. However, Green Bay still has something to play for, while Jacksonville does not. The Packers still have a chance at tying Minnesota for the NFC North title. The Vikings still have to play Arizona, Atlanta, and the New York Giants, a very brutal schedule. It is possible that Green Bay could win out, while Minnesota could lose their remaining three games. In addition, Jacksonville has given up on this season more than any other team, including Detroit, Cincinnati, and Cleveland. This team has shown absolutely no fight or promise. The Jaguars suffered a devastating injury as well, losing running back Fred Taylor for the season. His injury just adds to an already lengthy list of players gone for the season, especially on offense. Quarterback David Garrard has not been able to carry this team, and he won’t be able to in this game either. Green Bay has lost five out of their last six games, but four of those losses were in the last few minutes of the game. However, Jacksonville’s losses haven’t been competitive, getting hammered by Minnesota, Tennessee, Houston, and Chicago. The Jaguars have little to no home field advantage, as they are only 1-5 at home. This selection is mainly a play against Jacksonville, as Green Bay will get an easy win.

Sunday's Comp Selection:

#305. Detroit Lions +17 over Indianapolis Colts (Sunday 1pm est).

Wow, this is such a big spread. Note, that Orlovsky is likely to start this game as Culpepper is doubtful. But, if you are a Lions fan you want Orlovsky to start as he is far more accurate and frankly more athletic than Culpepper. Stanton is listed as probable as well – if you don’t know who he is – he is a no name QB that the Lions picked up because all of their quarterbacks are hurt. Addai is questionable for Indianapolis. The line opened up at -17 and 45 and has remained steady. The Colts have won 6 straight games as they go for win #10 today at home. Don’t forget though the Lions have covered their last four games on the road including a home cover last week over the Vikings which was my POD. I lean on the points and the Lions here if Orlovsky is the starter but I don’t think that will be announced until closer to game time. Plus, I can see how there could be a backdoor cover as well. But, it is not as if the Lions are not getting any love here as they do have 45% of the public backing. But, the Lions have had solid success covering on the road and I like them here with Orlovsky as he is a much better player overall and I think the Lions will make it interesting and likely lose by 10-13 points here. It's enough for me to take a shot on them as my comp selection.

Basketball Card :

Take Drexel +7.5 over Fairfield (Sunday @ 3:30pm est). We are going to make profit in college basketball if it Kills me. I have continued to add more teams into my formulas and we got screwed by the Indiana vs. Kentucky game but we did cash the Texa A&M game which shows us life. As per today, there ere are three college basketball games on tap. First off, Drexel is a team that I have ranked top 100. Why is this significant? Well, they are a top 110 team catching 7.5 points here which is important. This team played a top 75 team in George Mason at home and fell short by just 1 point and the only other road game it had played was against the Hoyas of Georgetown who are ranked top 7 in my Power rankings. As per this game, I like Drexel to hang tough as they come off a bounce-back against George Mason. Drexel has revenge against Fairfield from last year and remember Faifield is a top 125 team. In essence, I believe Drexel is the better team here catching the points and consequently that is what makes us take the points in a potential outright win. Remember, Fairfield beat the likes of Iona at home by just a field goal and Iona is ranked in the top 175 while our Drexel team is ranked in the top 125. Fairfield only defeated Sacred Heart 16 as well and they are a team in the top 275. Thus, let's roll with the 7.5 points here with our squad that is actually ranked 20 spots better roughly as we cath the points in a game that we have the numbers clearly working in our favor.
Take La Salle +9 over Villanova (Sunday @ 7pm est). Don't you dare understimate the Explorers. Remember, Villanova got a scare against St. Josephs and St. Josephs is a top 100 team who they barely defeated at home. Villanova on the other hand is a top 140 team in my books and hae played the likes of Southern Miss and have barely lost to them at home, that have played the likes of Uconn and lost by just 8 and that was in the Virgin Islands earlier this year on neutral footing and lost to Florida State by just 4 points at home. La Salle hails out of the Atlantic 10 and by no means do they win this game but they do have enough talent to hang tough. After all, if they can lose to a Uconn team by the spread of this margin here on neutral footing, why can't they hang within the spread against a Villanova team that is not as good on their home court? Remember, I have Uconn as a top 12 team in my power rankings while Villanova is a top 38 team. I say we rolle with La Salle at home where the crowd will be rocking for tonight's game as this team has obviously shown they can play against talented teams and for a game that will total in the mid 130's today, I will gladly take the roughly double-digit points as we look to cash in a game that La Salle will likely lose by 3-5 points.

Take Detroit +7.5 over Bowling Green (Sunday @ 6pm est.) Well, the auto industry might stink in Detroit but they do have some positives including their basketball team that has some bite. Look, these two teams are very familiar with each other. Bowling Green beat this young Detroit team last year on the road by 16. You think this Detroit team doesn't remember that game? On top of that, I think Detroit is steadily showing improvement. Look, to start the year, this team stunk including losing to Purdue on the road by 32 although that might be understandable. Then, this team lost to top 240 Western Michigan on the road by double-digits. But, then they started to improve and buy into their new system. They ended up losing to top Depaul on the road by just 9 points. They defeated St. Louis at home Outright by 5 and recently lost to Wisconsin Green Bay by 11 who is a top 75 team. But, although I have Bowling Green as a top 100 team, here is the deal. This team has lost to some of the worst teams in the nation including Savannah State who is one of the worst teams in the history of college sports (I'm not exaggerating, this team went 3 years without a win at one point). Two of BG's wins came against teams that aren't even division 1 teams but they have had close games against Ohio State and Georgia State. In short, follow me here, BG is the type of team that plays to its competition and it is not the type of team that blows out division 1 opponents. I believe this will be a tight game all the way through. Let's take the points and roll here.


Take Memphis Grizzlies +1.5 Over Miami Heat (Sunday @ 4pm est.). Are you aware of what the Grizzlies have done over the past few games? Check it out:
They are an 8-15 team but in particular, they are 6-5 at home. And, on top of that, they defeated the Rocets at home (without McGrady) - but still impresive nonetheless as at points they were winning that game by 15-20 points. Miami has only four more wins than Memphis which might surprise you and Memphis also defeated the Bulls at home, Oklahoma City at home and a very good Clippers team by nearly double-digits at home. Hence, this team is on the longest winning streak of the year - 3. They have four of their last five games and they start the likes of Mayo, Lowry and Gay with a sound crop of young players coming off the bench as well. Miami does come off a loss against Atlanta so they will do better today on their bounce-back. But, note that Beasley is still fighting the flu which takes the air of this team's offense and Haslem is also questionable which will affect the size of this team will Darko and Gasol are in the thick of the lineup for Memphis. Let's take the hot team here at home against a banged up Heat as the Grizzlies are like any other young team as they rise with confidence and are all about streaks.
