Dave Cokin
(535) MISSISSIPPI vs (536) MISSISSIPPI STATE
Take (536) MISSISSIPPI STATE
SEC GAME OF THE YEAR! Home cookin' has been big in this SEC rivalry, with the host winning and covering each of the last six meetings. Mississippi State has been especially dominant when entertaining the Rebels. I figured to be on the Bulldogs in this game to begin with, but the selection became much stronger off the Ole Miss shocker vs. Kentucky. That was a monster national TV win for a team that's had all kinds of injury issues, along with the well publicized off the court issues for their coach. I doubt the beleaguered Rebels can summon up another big effort here and I like Mississippi State to score the blowout win today.


(549) MIAMI OHIO vs (550) EASTERN MICHIGAN
Take (549) MIAMI OHIO
MISMATCH OF THE YEAR! I can't see anything other than a lopsided Miami win here. The RedHawks are always tenacious on defense and Eastern Michigan is one of the least efficient offensive teams in the country. Miami has no problem playing on the road and they've already had some blowout victories on enemy floors this season. Miami has also thoroughly dominated this opponent at this site, covering each of their last seven visits to EMU. Finally, the hapless Eagles just suspended one of their better players for the rest of the season. This has all the earmarks of a 20-25 point crush job, and I'm laying the number with Miami.


(641) WRIGHT STATE vs (642) CLEVELAND STATE
Take (641) WRIGHT STATE
HORIZON GAME OF THE YEAR! Wright State was my pre-season pick to win the Horizon. That looks dicey as Butler has once again emerged as the class of the league, but the Raiders are definitely the best of the rest in my view. They overcame the loss of their best player without missing a beat and Wright State has been an absolute monster under Brad Brownell as underdogs. The number here is inflated due to Cleveland State having the revenge motive. There's no question the Vikings will be fired up for this and they do have a substantial home court edge. But I rate this game as very much a tossup and there's no way I can resist taking what looks like an overly generous number with Wright State.

Saturday's Action



1500? Wake Forest Demon Deacons



Even laying points on the road I like Wake Forest as there is not much hope for Georgia Tech today. Not when the Yellow Jackets have only covered once in their last 10 games and still sit winless in league play at 0-6, including their 0-3 SU/ATS record in home league games. One particular home loss that stands out is the Yellow Jackets 14 point loss to Duke who just loss at Wake Forest by 2 points in a game the Demon Deacons dominated most of the way. Even worst news for Tech will be the fact that Wake Forest will be looking to exact revenge after losing their last four times to Tech in Atlanta. Meanwhile, for Wake Forest they are not only good, but there are red hot thanks to their 17-1 straight up record on the season where they have won by an average of 17 points per game. Plus, for the Demon Deacons they are perfect on the highway this season at 5-0 straight up, including a pair of double digit road wins in league play with wins at Boston College and Clemson. Flat out unless Wake Forest has a major let down they will win by at least 15 points against the worst team in the league due to the huge gap in talent between the two teams. Well don’t expect any kind of let down from the Demon Deacons today as their talent alone will carry them to an easy win.



Lay the points.



500? Utah Utes



Bonus action I like the Utes minus the small chalk as they continue to dominate at home. The same Utah team that has come alive at home by winning their last six games at home with key wins over BYU, LSU, Wyoming and Gonzaga outright to name a few. Well enter the Lobos today and the Utes 7th straight home victim as Utah host a weak traveling New Mexico team that has lost 4 of 7 games away from the PIT including setbacks at UNLV, SDSU and Texas Tech. Well if you ask me Utah is a much tougher place to play then the previous mentioned stops for the Lobos. So behind the talented from line of Utah I look for the much small Lobos to struggle in the Beehive State as the Utes run away late for the cover win at home. All Utah minus the small home chalk!

Note From Steve Budin:

50 DIME

PITTSBURGH

Note From Steve Budin:

Pittsburgh is between a 6 1/2 to 7 point favorite. In either case, buy down 1 full point. The logic here from a former bookmaker's perspective is that you will find more games ending on six than seven.

The key in this game is to shop around. The line dropped in Vegas to 6 1/2 at a few sportsbooks as early as Wednesday. Finding that price should be your goal.

If you have Pittsburgh -7, I suggest you buy down the 1 point to -6 so you get the win should Pittsburgh win by seven or a push with a win by six.

If you have Pittsburgh -6 1/2, I suggest you buy down the 1 point to -5 1/2 so you get the win should Pittsburg win by six.

In either case above, you are paying somewhere in the neighborhood of -135 for the purchase of that 1 full point.

If for some reason you get Pittsburgh -7 1/2 (which should not be the case since this price has dropped, not risen) even after shopping around, buy down the 1 point still to -6 1/2 so you get the win should Pittsburgh only prevail by a touchdown.

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. In this case, however, it's a wise investment strategy, using the power of money - our bulging bankroll - against the bookmaker.

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 itse

Game: Wisconsin Badgers @ Northwestern Wildcats - Saturday January 31, 2009 8:00 pm
Pick: 4 units (Play of the Day) ATS: Northwestern Wildcats -1 (-110)

This is a 5* and 5 Unit Play. We have done great in College basketball this month. We sit at 69 units of total profit for the month so this along with our NBA Selection will put as +78 for the close of this month if I happen to sweep similar to Friday. It would be nice to go 9-0 in Big 10 GOM lifetime and 28-7 with 5* selections. We'll see what holds today. As per this game, why do people continue to think that Wisconsin is so great. Yes, they were great in the past. But, that is simply not the case this year. Look, this team, comes off losing 5 straight contests in Big 10 play. They lost to Iowa on the road in overtime, Purdue at home in a tight 1 point contest, Minnesota at home in overtime, Illinois on the road and lost to Purdue on the road by 13. Certainly, this team can bounce-back. But, if that was the case, would they not have bounced-back against Purdue on the road? Yes, Wisconsin drilled this team in an ugly fashion 74-45 at home. Well, now, it's Northwestern's turn to return the favor. Look, do you know that Michigan State has lost one conference game all year long? Michigan State is the best team in the conference in many ways and they have one loss this year. Do you know who that is too? You got it, Northwestern. Now, did this team lost to NW on the road? No, the Spartans lost to Northwestern at home. That's right. This Northwestern team went on the highway and did something that not even tpo 25 ranked Illinois or any of the other teams were unable to do - defeat Michigan State at home. Then, this team defeats Minneosta relatively easily at home - the same team Wisconsin los to at home in OT. Wisconsin is a good defensive team but they simply lack firepower currently. Northwestern had a tight ball game against Indiana who is beginning to get much better, and they were also looking ahead to this game. They want revenge against Wisconsin badly for not only their first loss of the season, but also because of last year's season sweep from the hands of the Badgers. So, we have revenge from this season, we have revenge from last season's sweep, we have a team that defeated Minnesota, lost to Purdue at home by just a bucket and beat Michigan State on the road that will be fired up in a night time game on television against Wisconsin. NW takes the cake here today. Badgers are 1-4 ATS as a favorite in their last 5 and the Badgers are 0-4-1 ATS in their last 5 against the Big 10.

BRYAN LEONARD'S COLLEGE BASKETBALL GAME OF THE YEAR!
560 Oklahoma State at Texas A&M
Terrible scheduling spot for the Cowpokes who have been through four straight emotional games before taking on the Aggies here. It all started two weeks ago to the day when Oklahoma State dropped a 98-92 overtime decision to the Baylor Bears. The Cowboys then survived a 97-95 home win over Missouri that was intense throughout. Oklahoma State then went into Lincoln and beat Nebraska 76-74 in overtime. Then on Monday the team faced instate rival Oklahoma in front of a Big Monday national television audience. The Cowboys lost that game 89-81 as their defense once again was non-existent.
Oklahoma State has long struggled on the road posting a 5-25 road mark the past three seasons. This year they stand at 2-2 straight up on the road with the victories being at Texas A&M Corpus Christie and last Saturday's overtime win at Nebraska.
Texas A&M is looking to avenge not only a 72-61 loss earlier this season in Stillwater, but a home loss here to the Cowboys last season. That defeat led to a three game losing streak and damaged a 15-1 home record to start the 2007-08 season. A&M currently sits at 11-1 at home this season with the only loss coming to powerful Oklahoma by 6 points. In the first meeting Oklahoma State had great success pressing the senior less Aggies but Texas A&M has grown a great deal since then. Besides it's much easier to dictate pace when playing in front of a home crowd.
Home court is huge in college basketball and the Aggies have been terrific in this building. They own the better defense and unlike the Cowboys they haven't been through game after game of all out wars. With Oklahoma, Kansas State, Baylor and Texas on the horizon this becomes a must win game for the host, and the line is very favorable for a team hiding under the radar.
PLAY TEXAS A&M

Game: Chicago Bulls @ Phoenix Suns - Saturday January 31, 2009 9:05 pm
Pick: 4 units (Play of the Day) TOTAL: Over 213 (-110)



We are 4-1 on the week in the NBA and things are going well as we have now secured 6 straight winning weeks in the Association. That's now officially my best streak in the NBA as well. As per this game, keep in mind that Chicago embarassd the Suns at home earlier this year by 17. In fact, the Suns didn't even break 85 points in that game. Phoenix also comes off a loss to the Spurs at home by 10. So, let's just say the Suns are in no means in a good mood coming into this game. But, the Bulls are not the type of team to roll over. The Bulls at the start of they year would roll over when another team has revenge - but not this Bulls team currently. These Chicago Bulls are now healthy with the return of Deng and Kirk and are playing great basketball once again. Bear in mind that they just romped the Clippers and Kings easily and even nearly defeating the Twolves on the road as they slid inside the number. I think the Bulls are game today and in the same token the Suns want to get revenge off their loss and franly want to pummel somebody as the Bulls roll in. Consequently, I think this is going to make for a wide open game of up and down basketball as I expect both teams to exceed 110 points a peice and send this game over the posted total en route for our 5-1 week. The over is 4-1 for the Bulls when they play teams with winning records meaning they are likely to get up for this game and be an active dog to send this game over as well as the fact the over is 11-4 for the Suns when they play the NBA Central
