4 Unit Play. #103 Take Philadelphia +4 over Dallas (Saturday 8 pm NBC) This is a rematch from last week and in the NFC East, it is always hard to beat a team twice let alone three times. If Dallas does not get off to a good start, expect panic to set in with the coaches, players, and crowd and that will allow the Eagles to play their game and dictate the pace for ahead. Dallas has not won a playoff game since 1996 (0-6) and Philly always seems to turn it on come playoff time. Last year they went to the conference championship game as a sixth seed and it would not surprise me if they make a run this season as well. QB McNabb will play much better this evening and him to be in tune much better with his receivers unlike last week. Philadelphia 24, Dallas 20.

Steven Budin-CEO SATURDAY'S PICK COSTA RICA CONNECTION

100 DIME RELEASE

Cincinnati on the MONEY LINE

Note from Steve:

As I've told you before, when I refer to my "Costa Rica Connection," the source is actually a head clerk at one of the top three offshore sportsbooks. Obviously I can't tell you which one, but rest assured every wise guy in the country plays into this office. And I know this guy because I trained him when he used to work for me years ago at my book and we've remained close ever since.

This play, as you can see, is a MONEYLINE release. Right now, Cincinnati is anywhere from -135 to -140 on the moneyline offshore and in Vegas. So, betting the Bengals at these prices would be no different than betting a low-priced favorite in baseball.

Also, consider why this is such a typical wiseguy move: The pointspread for this game has been floating between 2 1/2 and 3 all week. Typically, the home favorite in these cases will settle at 3 by kickoff and most local bookies will go ahead and price it at -3 anyway. And thus smart players would then buy down the 1/2 point to 2 1/2 - which is what I would obviously recommend as well - at a price of -130 (which is what the going rate is nowadays when you're buying around the number 3 offshore and in Vegas and sportsbooks continue to squeeze you). But rather than buying insurance at -130 and worrying about the pointspread at all, these sharps are instead simply taking Cincinnati on the Moneyline at a slightly bigger price of approximately -135 or -140.

Here's another way of looking at it: Instead of buying down the half-point at a cost of -130 and still laying 2 1/2 points on the Bengals, they are getting a "3-point discount," making it a pick-em game at a cost of about -135 or -140. It's really an incredibly simple and effective strategy.

Returning with my analysis by 9 A.M. Eastern

Strategy Note:

You've heard me discuss this many times on TV and radio; I only believe in buying half points when the number is around 3, 4 or 7. This price is floating between 3 1/2 and 4, so go ahead and buy down the half-point in either case on Dallas.

6* W ido w W iseg uy Cowboys/Eagles Wild Card T OTA L OF THE Y EA R on UNDER 45(-107 at 5dimes)

The first two meetings between these teams went well UNDER the number. With a total of 49 in their first meeting, Dallas won 20-16 for 36 combined points. They dropped the total to 47 points in their second meeting, and Dallas won 24-0. Now, they dropped the total 2 more points, yet it's still too low. Dallas is playing tremendous defense, giving up just 17 points in their last 3 games combined for an average of 5.7 points/game. With the Eagles' offensive line beat up, they won't be able to do anything offensively in this game either. But we do expect their defense to rise to the occasion and make up for it. Dallas has gotten their running game going the last few weeks, and the Eagles know they have to get their running game going Sunday to try and keep Dallas off balance. Otherwise, the Cowboys will be able to just pin their ears back and get after McNabb all game long just like they have in the first two meetings. Dallas is 6-0 UNDER (+6.0 Units) off a division game this season. The Eagles are 13-4 UNDER (+8.6 Units) revenging a loss against opponent by 14 points or more since 1992. The UNDER is 8-1 in Dallas' last 9 games overall and they continue their stellar defense Saturday in a low-scoring defensive battle with the Eagles. Take the UNDER.



5* W iseg uy Jets/Bengals AFC Wild Card Re mat ch on New York +3(-125 at betus)

We aren't basing this play off of what happened last week in a 37-0 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Though the Bengals played their starters, other than Cedric Benson, for the first half, they still couldn't have totally been into the game. That said, the Jets owned the Bengals when their starters were in, limiting Carson Palmer to 1-of-11 passing for 0 yards. The Bengals will have a better attitude Saturday when playing at home, and they will be focused. But they don't have what it takes to slow down the Jets. New York owns the #1 ranked defense in the league, giving up just 14.7 points/game and 252 yards/game which is far and away the best average in the league. They also own the #1 running game at 172 rushing yards/game. Having the #1 defense and the #1 rushing offense is huge in the playoffs, as we've seen in year's past. Cincinnati simply isn't the same team they were in the first half of the season. The Bengals are just 3-4 in their last 7 games, with their wins coming against the Browns, Lions and Chiefs. And even in those wins, they weren't that impressive, failing to beat any of those 3 teams by more than 10 points. Chad Johnson just got hurt last week, and he is likely to play in this game but will also likely be slowed a little. He is really their only weapon at receiver. New York is the hotter team heading into the playoffs, and Mark Sanchez isn't being asked to do too much right now. New Yorks' offensive and defensive numbers are both better than Cincinnati's, and not even home field can help the Bengals get things turned around Saturday. Cincinnati is 0-7 ATS as a favorite this season. Take the Jets and the points. (Recommend buying to +3)



4* on Northern Colorado -12.5(-105 at 5dimes)

Northern Colorado is the superior team here and should be a much heavier favorite against 4-12 Idaho State. Northern Colorado is one of the better teams that nobody knows about as they enter Saturday's game with a 14-3 record on the season. At home, NCU is 5-0 S.U. and 4-1 ATS while winning by 12.8 points/game. Idaho State is 1-10 on the road this season, losing by 12.4 points/game. Idaho State is 1-9 ATS (-8.9 Units) in road games on Saturday games over the last 2 seasons. Idaho State is 0-9 ATS (-9.9 Units) when playing their 2nd road game in 3 days over the last 3 seasons. Northern Colorado is 11-0 ATS (+11.0 Units) after one or more consecutive overs over the last 2 seasons. NCU is 11-1 ATS (+9.9 Units) when playing their 2nd game in 3 days over the last 2 seasons. Take Northern Colorado and lay the points.



4* on St. John's +11.5(-102 at 5dimes)

We really like this St. John's team this season as they continue going under the radar. At 10-4 this season and with 5 returning starters, this team can compete with anyone in the country on any given night. They have proven that on the road twice this season already, losing at Duke by only 9 points and losing at Georgetown by just 7. On the road this season, they are 4-1 ATS and their experience allows them to not get rattled while playing in front of hostile road crowds. It will be hostile at Louisville Saturday, but the Cardinals' players won't fully be into this game. They are much more interested in having Villanova come to their place up next on Monday, just two days away. The Red Storm are 18-5 ATS (+12.5 Units) in road games after a loss by 15 points or more since 1997. St. John's is 12-2 ATS (+9.8 Units) in road games after scoring 60 points or less 2 straight games since 1997. Take St. John's and the points.

1500* - Cincinnati Bengals,

500* - Minnesota Golden Gophers

You can't say that last Sunday night's 37-0 blanking the Jets laid on the Bengals doesn't mean anything, but I honestly don't think it is indicative of what is going to happen on Saturday in Cincinnati.

For me, this game bolis down to two things; # 1- Rookie Quarteback, # 2 - The Road!

You can go on all you want about how the Jets will minmize Mark Sanchez' passes in this game, and how the Jets defense will be the difference, but eventually Sanchez is going to have to throw the pigskin, and I just don't see him engineering a road win in his first playoff start in a hostile environment.

Keep in mind that the Jets closed the season with wins over a pair of teams that mailed it in for the year, in the Colts and the Bengals. You will see a different Cincy team this afternoon in their 1st playoff game since Carson Palmer blew out his knee back in the 2005 season at home against Pittsburgh.

The Bengals have won their last 5 home games, and 6 of 8 overall this season, and while they are on a 1-6 overall spread slide, and a 3-5 home spread slide this year, this is the lowest price they have been asked to cover all season long, and I just don't see them losing this game.

Cincy has been through an awful lot this season with the deaths of Chris Henry, and the loss of defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer's wife. You can assume that all of that emotion is going to be channeled in a positive way today for the Bengals.

The Jets did well to make the postseason, today the reality sets in.

Take the Bengals minus the short chalk.

1500? - Cincinnati Bengals

Lest you think that a team that sweeps the regular season pair of games cannot win for a third time in the same season, 12 of the 19 times the scenario has presented itself, the hat trick has been completed. In fact, Pittsburgh won all 3 last season against Baltimore en route to winning the Super Bowl.

That fact bodes well for the Cowboys on Saturday night hosting the Eagles, but with Dallas having not won a playoff game since 1996, and with Philadelphia knowing the route to the championship game oh so well, I don't think it is going to be smooth sailing for the 'Pokes this evening at home.

I do think Dallas is going to eek out the win, but covering the impost is not going to happen.

If you ask me, no team is more dangerous in the NFC than the peaking Cowboys, but I don't see them pitching a 3rd straight shutout.

Philly did not maximize their patented blitzes in last week's loss, so you can assume they will try and rattle Romo's cage with a wide variety of their blitz packages in this one.

The first meeting between the teams saw Dallas win it 20-16 on November 8th in Philadelphia, I think this game will more resemble the first meeting than last last week's 24-0 beatdown.

Eagles plus the points as this game is decided by a field-goal tops.

500? - Philadelphia Eagles

One college hoops release for ya, as I like Minnesota to rebound from the beating Purdue put on them earlier this week in West Lafayette.

Minnesota is a perfect 9-0 at the Williams Arena, and 5-2 against the spread in their lined home games. I expect them to take advantage of an Ohio State team that has not been able to get much going in the absence of guard Evan Turner who is sidelined with a back injury.

The Buckeyes are just 4-3 straight up their last 7, and only 1-6 against the spread in that span!

The home team has won the last 4 series meetings, and 6 of the last 7 overall. With Minnesota looking so strong at home this year, no hesitation in laying the points with the Golden Gophers here.

Everybody's on the Jets Right?? Wrong, not me. Obviously what did we see last week when these same two teams played each other. The Jets had to "win to get in". The Bengals were already in. The Jets were playing in front of a raucous home crowd. The Bengals were like let's get this over with. I've never seen a team lay down so bad. It was almost like they wanted tp play the Jets again. And why not? They get a rookie QB in their own house going against Carson Palmer. That's a pretty big mismatch if you ask me, and I believe it's the mismatch that the Bengals wanted all along. Sure the Jets can run the ball. They are very good at it too. The Bengals are also very good at with Cedric Benson. Bengals know they can run it against the Jets. See here is the thing that some people might be missing here. Rex Ryan was a DC with the Ravens and they used to play the Bengals all the time and vice versa so there will be no surprises on either side of the ball. The Bengals are familiar with every blitz package and coverage that Ryan can throw at them. Palmer has seen it all. The Bengals threw nothing at Sanchez last week and even though Ryan may know what's coming he isn't playing QB. The Bengals will fore the Jets into a one dimensional offense, at which they d excel. But this is the playoffs and you're not going to convince me that a rookie SoCall QB playing in the snow and cold of Cinncy is gonna beat the Bengals in the playoffs.

Sean Michaels Saturday's Play 50 Dime Release - Cincinnati

As you know from watching the video on the subject on my homepage, this is a game with a price that demands buying down the half-point on Cincinnati if your price is -3 or 3 1/2. Now here in Vegas, it's pretty easy to get the Bengals at -2 1/2, and if that's the case with you as well, there's no need to buy down. But if your man or sportsbook is offering either 3 or 3 1/2, go ahead and buy down the hook.

Karl Garrett 50 DIMER - CINCINNATI BENGALS.....10 DIMERS - PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, & KENTUCKY WILDCATS 50 DIMER - CINCINNATI BENGALS

Don't be fooled by the Jets 37-0 season finale last week over this Bengals team, New York will NOT be playing the same Bengals team they just humiliated to punch their playoff ticket.

Believe me, Marvin Lewis and his staff wanted no parts of the Houston Texans in this game, and that would have been the case had Cincy bested New York.

In essence, the Jets last 2 wins came against teams that had nothing to play for. Just keep the Jets dismal 10-7 home loss to Atlanta at the Meadowlands fresh in your minds. That is the real Jets team. Oh sure, New York may own a staunch defense, but at some point Mark Sanchez, that is ROOKIE Mark Sanchez is going to have to make a few plays, and that ain't gonna happen in his 1st playoff game of the road.

Cincy has waited since the end of the 2005 season to be back in the playoffs, and that was the game in which Carson Palmer blew out his knee in the first series. This go'round will be different.

The Bengals did not do a good job this year when favored, I will grant you that, but this line is for all intents and purposes a pick'em game, and there is no way I feel the home team is going to get beat today.

Lay the small impost.

10 DIMER - PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

This one is a "gut"play, as I will grant you the fact that Dallas could be the hottest NFC team right now, but the playoffs are a different beast altogether, and Dallas has not won a postseason game since 1996.

Philadelphia took the # 6 seed in last year's playoffs all the way to the NFC Title Game, and while I don't see them going that deep this postseason, they at least know what it takes to advance, and after 2 season losses to the Cowboys, they will pull out all the stops to avoid the hat trick.

I still think Dallas wins this game, but my bucks are on the Eagles to get the spread win.

Take the Birds plus the points as this one goes down to the bitter end.

10 DIMER - KENTUCKY WILDCATS

Georgia is still savoring their upset win over Georgia Tech, but don't expect the Bulldogs to once again waltz into the Rupp Arena and pull off another upset win, as Kentucky just has too many horses for this still-learning Bulldogs bunch.

Georgia did spring the upset win at Kentucky last season, beating the Wildcats as the 17 1/2-point underdog!

Not going to happen today.

The Wildcats are 11-0 straight up at home, and they have been able to cover their last pair, and 5 of their last 7 on line.

The Bulldogs have not been able to get any traction on the road, going 1-4 against the spread away from home thus far.

This one has whitewash writtien all over it.

Take the 'Cats over the Dawgs.

double-dime bet 104 DAL -2.5 (-110) BetUS vs 103 PHI
Analysis: NFL: Philadelphia Eagles at Dallas Cowboys - Cowboys -3.5 -110 | Unit Value: 2
Game Date: 1/9/2010
Note: A lot of times on these re-matchups like this the favor is returned but the Cowboys are just playing too well right now, they have the homefield advantage, and the Eagles are suffering from some key injuries along the offensive line that are going to make it hard for their offense to go. In addition, unlike previous years, the Eagles are not stopping the run and that is paramount in these big games. I do not expect Dallas to win this one by a large amount as Philly will come to play, but I do see at least a comfortable win to get this spread. This line is on the move downward and I wish I could get the -3 but I am going to go ahead and get it now.

Game Date: 1/9/2010
Note: Many of you already know that I am close to this situation. Nobody will be watching the NFL Playoffs here today, they will be at the game, clamouring for tickets. Many will be remembering the final regular season football game where the Bulldogs prevailed. But this is not about the crowd. This is about the fact that Ole Miss is the better team. They suffered through major injuries last year but this year they are healthy and they are playing well. Nobody has come here to Oxford and beat them yet and not many have even come close. The do run a fast pace but unlike most teams that do, they take care of the ball. They also have a very strong bench and they will lose that often to wear down the Dogs. I am going to have to lay these small points here and not even close to the reason that I am a Rebel Fan.

Note: I am not a big proponent is laying these large numbers but I will with this one. VCU has lost 2 CAA conference games in a row and is just 1-3 overall. They are a very good team and they need a win badly. they should get it here with Delaware who is totally overmatched in every way today.

Game Date: 1/9/2010
Note: I surely do hate playing against the Rebels very often as they play a lot of people and get the job done in the second half. But THE PIT is one of the toughest places to play in this country and that alone gives us the 2nd half advantage. New Mex is 9-0 here and they have beat some pretty darn good teams at this court. Rebounding and Turnovers will be the key for this one and we have the advantage in both categories. Both teams are off a loss so whatever advantage UNLV would have is gone. Lay the points.

Game Date: 1/9/2010
Note: La Tech is a very good basketball team and winners of 7 straight games while playing good competition. So why has oddsmakers made this a pick game? Because they know that the Vandals play well at this court. At 1-1 in the conference they also need a win here. They can compete on the boards with the Bulldogs and they have been very good shooting at these nets, hitting 50% this year. The Bench is going to be the biggest factor for this contest and Idaho has more people they can put on the court here in the mountains. I see a strong 2nd half performance by our team this evening and a win. That win might be a close one but with the Vandals good free throw shooting, they should be able to close it out. I actually can see this number going up so I would go ahead and get it now.

Analysis:
I really see great value with the Bengals on Saturay--as we are getting them at UNDER the key number of 3....due to LAST WEEKS MEANINGLESS game- that saw the Jets hammer Cincy AT NEW YORK 37-0. Cincy could have cared less & IMO wanted to play the Jets in the playoffs instead of the Texans--and if Cincy would have beaten the Jets last weekend--thats who they would be playing for the Wild Card game. NY Jets looked like world beaters vs this Cincy team who clearly could have cared less. I am ALL OVER fading the Rookie QB Sanchez who has been flat out STRUGGLING the 2nd half of the season. Cincy has a very stout run game and defense too & I fully expect a WHOLE DIFFERENT Bengals team on Saturday AT HOME and behind a veteran QB Carson Palmer. Just MUCH MORE experience at the ever important QB spot for us in this matchup, and I think that plays a hu‚ge part. Cincy will definitely stuff the box and force Sanchez to beat them & I just DO NOT see that happening. Lay the short number with the Bengals here guys.

ASA's 4-Star play on: OVER Eagles vs. Cowboys - Jan 8

ASA4-Star play on: OVER 45 Dallas vs. Philadelphia - Saturday, January 9 – 4:30 PM CST (1 NFL picks this weekend - next update Friday, Jan 15th at 4:00 pm CST)

Dallas and Philadelphia meet in back-to-back games after Dallas’ 24-0 victory last weekend. The loss really took Philly off of their high horse. They entered the game on the momentum of six straight victories, averaging 31.2 points per game in that span. But instead of earning a first-round bye, the Eagles booked a return trip to Dallas with an uncharacteristic performance, gaining only 228 yards to the Cowboys’ 474. "It’s kind of embarrassing," Eagles tight end Brent Celek said. "I can’t wait to play these guys again. After what they did to us, I want to come back here. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else." This will be a high energy game and we expect some fireworks. Easy ‘over.’

In last week’s game, both teams missed their share of opportunities. Both Dallas and Philly had their own red zone turnover and Philly ‘just missed’ on a number of big plays. By halftime, Dallas owned a 17-0 lead and neither team was aggressive in the 2nd half. The Cowboys coasted to the easy victory and it was apparent that Philly conceded their win as their main goal was to keep their starters healthy for next week.

The Eagles are the main catalyst for this game finishing ‘over’ the total. They have a trio of big play receivers led by DeSean Jackson that can change the game whenever they touch the ball. Jackson has 12 touchdowns (9 receiving, 2 returns, 1 rushing) with 1167 receiving yards and 18.5 yards per reception. They love to pass the ball and it shows, with a full-season 60-40 pass-run ratio.

Dallas’ Tony Romo ended his season quite well. In his last six games, he has passed for 310 ypg with an 11/2 ratio. The Cowboys boast a 56-44 pass/run ratio and rank 6th in the NFL in passing yards and 2nd in the NFL in total yards. Philly, despite their poor performance on Sunday, still ranks 11th in total yards and 5th in scoring.

The Philly ‘over’ is 6-1 in Eagles last 7 games following a S.U. loss and 20-6 in last 26 games as an underdog. The average total in the past four meetings between the two is 47 points. The rivalry grows with another playoff match-up between these two with this being the first playoff game in Dallas’ new Cowboy stadium. Expect Fireworks and for this game easily to finish ‘over’ the total.

This is the second of four meetings as the road team has won four of the last five matchups. After their fifth loss in seven games, Panthers coach Peter DeBoer was in a sour mood on Wednesday morning when he put his team through a physical workout. Ottawa is still without Spezza (right knee, out until early March) and Alfredsson. The Panthers have scored 120 goals entering Saturday's clash with the Senators -- 14th in the League.

This is the third meeting between the teams. The Flyers won the first two games. The Flyers could move into eighth place in the Eastern Conference if they win and the Devils win in Montreal Saturday night. Flyers rookie left wing James van Riemsdyk has three goals in two games and six points in three games. Leighton is 6-0-1 with a 2.22 goals-against average as the Flyers' starter. Richards has scored in three straight games. Carter has seven points in five games. … Lightning center Vincent Lecavalier has 13 points in 10 games. St. Louis has 11 points in the past eight games. With five power-play goals in two games, the Flyers moved back into second place with a 23.4 percent success rate. Great night for the rookie watch: Van Riemsdyk is tied for second among NHL rookies with 16 assists and tied for fourth with 10 goals. Look for a big from the rookie of the Flyers.
Take PHILADELPHIA.

New York Rangers (+125) at Boston Bruins (-135) – (2**)
This is the third of four meetings between the teams, but the first visit for the Rangers to TD Garden. While the Rangers have earned at least one point in 10 of their last 11 games, the Bruins will be out for revenge after a tough 3-2 loss in New York on Monday. For New York, Lundqvist has allowed two goals or fewer in 13 of his past 16 games. Pesky winger Sean Avery tied a career-high with four points on Wednesday against Dallas. Newcomer Erik Christensen has five points in his past five games while forward Ales Kotalik has 2 goals in the past three games. One thing is certain for the surging Rangers, Henrik Lundqvist will be rested.
Take NEW YORK.

New Jersey Devils (-125) at Montreal Canadiens (+115) – (1*)
Second of four meetings this season. Patrik Elias scored with 2:36 left in the third period and New Jersey claimed a 2-1 win on home ice Dec. 16. Martin Brodeur returns to play in Montreal for the first time since he dramatically tied Patrick Roy's all-time wins record last March. Devils captain Jamie Langenbrunner has five goals and eight points during a five-game points streak, while Patrik Elias has seven goals and nine assists in his last 14 games. New Jersey plays for the second time in as many nights, although the Devils probably did more sitting around and waiting Friday than they did skating and shooting.
Take NEW JERSEY.

ODDSMAKERS DILEMMA
500? CINCINNATI BENGALS



Sorry all of you out there singing J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets ... I cannot rightfully back the Jets in this spot, with a rookie quarterback playing his first playoff game on the road against a team looking to prove it was third-rate last week.

In last Sunday’s night game, the Bengals held back a lot of the bread-and-butter in their arsenal, like the Double A-gap blitzes, like inside power runs by Ced Benson and active-motion by the receivers.

I know this is defensive wizard Rex Ryan's blitzing scheme, but all due respect, this unit hasn't seen a legitimate, first-rate offense since Nov. 22, when it went to New England and lost 31-14. To wit:



Nov. 29 vs. Carolina - 27-9 win over the Panthers' 19th-ranked offense
Dec. 3 vs. Buffalo - 19-13 win over the Bills' 30th-ranked offense
Dec. 10 vs. Tampa Bay - 26-3 win over the Bucs'
Dec. 20 vs. Atlanta - a 10-7 setback against
Dec. 27 vs. Indianapolis - a 29-15 win over the second strung Colts.
Jan. 3 vs. Cincinnati - a 37-0 win over the toothless-less Bengals



Now, don't get me wrong, the Bungles aren't exactly the most explosive bunch with the 24th-ranked offense. But they do rank ninth in rushing, and I am a firm believer there is no passing game that can succeed without an effective rushing game.

After all, it sets up your play action, it can force a member of the secondary toward the line of scrimmage to help fill those A-Gaps, leaving room for the receiving corps to roam and it ultimately causes confusion on those 3rd-and-short plays if the defense believes it's coming up the gut.

And for all intent purposes, let's assume the Jets defend well; what about Sanchez? I know there are many marveling at how he's managed to stay turnover-free the last two games, but the Colts and Bengals barely brought any fuel to the fire.

And, Brian Schottenheimer protected Sanchez by running the ball four times in seven third-and-long situations or using the Wildcat-formation in some of those situations. You don't think a full-strength Bengals defense will be better prepared this time around? No doubt about it, Schottenheimer is going to limit Sanchez’s throwing to first and second down, while hoping for third-and-manageable. But if the fourth-ranked defense gets to Sanchez early and often, he'll be gun shy the entire game.

Cause for rookie mistakes if you ask me.

I am going to play the home team in this one, as the Bengals are a solid 7-2 ATS when playing teams with a winning record - they play to the level of competition, as evidenced by them not exerting anything extra and/or worrying about inflated-line losses to Chiefs, Browns and Lions late in the season.

But I am advising you to BE SURE you're laying the 2-1/2 point spread that has been available all week. Do not get caught laying a field goal, in the event your book decides to move this line. If you see a -3, you're to purchase a half point down and lay only 2-1/2 points.

10-Dime - Bengals

[Mr. IWS]

st bernadine sports advisors
NFL:
2* Cincinnati -2.5 over NY jets(4:30 pm) - Everyone keeps saying how the Jets are lucky to be in the playoffs and yes they are. What is also true is that there isn't much of a talent difference between the 10th seed in the AFC(Pittsburgh) and the 3 seed(Cincy). So that is why we have a line of around 3 pts here, the home field advantage. Where I think that Cincy has the Edge here is that they can stop the run and that will force Sanchez to throw the ball more than 15 times. Sanchez despite having faced teams playing backups for the most part only threw for 170 yds in 2 weeks. Also look for Palmer to bounce back from from his 0.0 passer rating(0-11 passing). Teams coming in off a shutout have not fared well the next week. The last 11 teams to pitch shutouts have gone 2-9 ATS the next week.

NBA:
2* Charlotte Bobcats -5 over Memphis(7pm) - Charlotte has many things going for them here. They are a much better team at home, they are rested and they play a style that I believe matches up well with Memphis. Charlotte has that in your face defensive style that can frustrate you into taking bad shots. Memphis has an all offensive team. Defense is a foreign concept to this team. You can win the occasional game by out shooting a team, but vs a defensively tough minded team on the road, that is a tall task. Memphis is also on the 4th game in 5 night stretch so working hard for shots on the offensive end may be an issue for them. Look for the Bobcats to lay the wood to Memphis tonight.

NCAABB:
1* Ga st. /northeastern over 115.5(noon) - play this one up to 118 - Part of UGLY game system and it could get UGLY here as Ga st can slow things down when they feel they need to. Northeastern hasn't seen a total set anywhere near this low all year. They are an average paced team that should be able to get the score into the mid 60's here in this game. That would leave Ga st to get only 50. Considering Ga st has only had 1 game below 55 I like our chances there .

1* N.Iowa +1 over Illinois st.(4 pm) - Pretty much the same scenario as on Thursday. N Iowa has covered 5 of the last 6 meetings in this matchup. All of the top teams have been playing each other this week and so you have a pretty good idea how the oddsmakers view these teams. In looking at the spreads for all the common opponents, N Iowa getting points seems a little strange. Based on other games that have been rated, N.Iowa should be a 3 or 4 point fave. As such I will take the point and call it real value.

1* Richmond/saint Louis over 115(5 pm) - part of the ugly game system. Richmond creates a tempo that will have both teams having too many possessions for this not to go over. This will be the lowest total set for either team this year. Much like the Northeastern game, Richmond should get to at least the mid 60's here and that leaves St Louis to put up only 50.

Al DeMarco Saturday's Play15 Dime - Dallas Cowboys

Two things you've heard all week leading into this game, both myths that I want to debunk right now. First, it's not that hard for a team to beat another three times in one season. The possibility has arisen 19 times since 1970, and there have been 12 sweeps, including the Steelers of the Ravens last year.

The other myth-buster: Don't buy into the fact that the Eagles didn't give their all last week at Dallas with one of the reasons being they didn't want to "tip their hand" because of an eventual rematch with the Cowboys in the postseason. Are you kidding me? I'm based out of Philly and trust me, this wasn't like Cincinnati rolling over and playing dead at New York, or Indianapolis throwing in the towel in its final two games. The Birds had plenty to play for last week, mainly the No. 2 seed in the NFC and a first-round bye. Instead, by losing 24-0 in a game in which they were outplayed from start to finish, they got the absolute toughest road to reach the Super Bowl as it down will potentially take them through not only Dallas but Minnesota, too.

As for the games on the field, the Cowboys defense dominated in a 20-16 upset at Philadelphia and last Sunday's 24-0 shutout at home, sacking Donovan McNabb eight times and completely shutting down the Eagles' ground game. Do you know Philly had 21 offensive series in those two games but McNabb's attack managed just one touchdown? Not surprising when you consider receivers DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Macklin were held to a combined 11 catches in those contests.

On offense, Dallas had its way against Philadelphia's defense. Tony Romo passed for over 300 yards in both contests and the Eagles' pass rush rarely put significant pressure on him. Philly's secondary has had problems covering tight ends the past three years; nothing changed this season against Jay Witten. And they had no answer for Miles Austin, either. On the ground, the 1-2 punch of Miles Barber and Felix Jones, alternating liberally, churned out 179 of the Pokes' 474 total yards last week.

Will this be a closer game than last week's shutout? Absolutely. The Eagles will give their all, but it won't be enough as Dallas rolls 31-24.


Strategy Note:

You've heard me discuss this many times on TV and radio; I only believe in buying half points when the number is around 3, 4 or 7. This price is floating between 3 1/2 and 4, so go ahead and buy down the half-point in either case on Dallas.

[Mr. IWS]

Jeff Benton Saturday's Winners ... 25 Dime: COWBOYS (minus the points vs. Eagles) ...





NOTE: If this number is at 3 1/2, buy the half-point and grab Dallas at -3. Do NOT get beat by the hook in this contest!

GEORGIA TECH +7

For a number of different reasons I believe we're getting excellent value on Georgia Tech today:

The Blue Devils might need to see how they react to a close game because it has been a while. They’ve been in one game decided by less than nine points, and that resulted in their only loss in a game at Wisconsin. That also marked the team’s only true road game; keep in mind that Duke is 0-1 ATS on the road this season.

On the other side of the court: Georgia Tech has vastly improved after a dismal 2008-09 season.

Thanks to 6-foot-9 junior Gani Lawal and one of the nation’s top freshmen classes, Georgia Tech (11-3, 0-1) is one win shy of matching its total from last season when it won two ACC games. Despite the turnaround, the Yellow Jackets are in danger of dropping their first two league games after falling 73-66 at rival Georgia on Tuesday; however I expect a "rebound" tonight.

The Yellow Jackets will try to slow Duke with their aggressive full-court pressure.

Not only is Georgia Tech 10-2 SU its last 12 overall, it also always plays tough in front of the hometown crowd; 6-1 SU its last seven at home.

Bottom line: With "revenge" on their minds, look for GEORGIA TECH to improve to 5-3 ATS when playing against a team with a winning record and for Duke to fall to 1-1 ATS against conference opponents.

*8* GEORGIA TECH.

CINCINNATI BENGALS -2.5

The Bengals have been through a lot this season and are playing in their first playoff game in ages. Do not look at last Sunday's Game to handicap this game. Cincinnati has playing as vanilla as they could. The Jets do have a great defense, but the Bengals play good defensive ball and I just do not see Marc Sanchez as a rookie winning a big playoff game on the road. Look for the Bengals to get a big playoff win.

I'm taking Philly getting more than a FG and Under a big total of 45. I expect a close game and a better defensive effort from the Eagles this week. last week Philly was playing for positioning and I'm always surprised at how poorly that tends to work out for teams. Aside from what's on the field I like their edge in coaching and I think they will be ready Saturday. As for the Under, I like both defenses and the potential for this one to have 41 points or less scored. Take Philly +4 and Under 45, both for 3* Plays.

I like the Bengals to get the job done at home. Last game was misleading and the intensity wasn't there for ther Bengals. That gives us added line value and I'll back the team with the better QB at home. I believe Jets turnovers will be the difference and one of my all-time favorite Wild-Card angles indicates a play on the Bengals. I like the Bengals to cover the -2.5 but I'm going to grab the moneyline at a very reasonable -128 for added insurance. If you don't have that same option, lay the -2.5. Take Cincinnati for a 4* Play.

KANSAS STATE +4.5

This all the makings for a truly great match up at Mizzou Arena, a venue in which the Missouri Tigers have prevailed an astounding 29 straight games. I suspect most will love Mizzou with the relatively short number here and plan on banking some easy money. I will likely be in attendance at this one and frankly I would not be shocked to see the streak end. I call them the way I see them and when it has come to Mizzou basketball the last few years I am typically dialed in to have they will perform. This Kansas State club under coach Frank Martin is off to the schools best start since the 1958-59 season, and that span has included many fine quality clubs. At 13-1 they present a huge challenge to the Tigers. The Tigers will do what they always do, pressure defense and try to wreak havoc on the opponents creating points off turnovers. The deal here is that the Wildcats handle the ball well and their back court of Denis Clemente and Jacob Pullen will likely deal with the pressure much more effectively than anyone the Tigers have faced to date, with the possible exception of Vanderbilt who defeated them earlier this fall. The Wildcats also do not rely on a couple of players to carry the load offensively as they have five guys spreading the ball around all averaging in double figures. Mizzou is a sound, hustling team that is fun as hell to watch play and they will always leave it all on the floor, but this is still a work in progress for Mike Anderson has the team has only 3 seniors and frankly are downright weak down in the post and they do not typically hit the boards on the offensive end as hard as you might expect from an Anderson team. Don't be a bit surprised of Mizzou comes out like gangbusters in front of the sold out Mizzou arena, however they will soon realize this is not Austin Peay or Savannah State that they are dealing with. The Tigers will not be able to shake this Wildcat team and the contest will likely go to the final buzzer. I am a long time Missouri supporter but I call them the way I see them. Triple Star on Kansas State guys plus the points!

DREXEL -3

The Tribe of William and Mary has cashed all seven tickets as an underdog this season and is coming off a thrilling 74-73 road win over Delaware Wednesday night in overtime. The previous game saw them lose by one to UNC Wilmington. The game before that saw them win by one at Hofstra. All three games were decided in the final 17 seconds. Eventually this nonsense must come to an end and it speaks volumes that they are taking points here against an 8-8 Drexel squad. Both of these teams are 3-1 to start CAA play, which of course means that the Dragons played the more difficult non-conference schedule. Sure enough, you will find teams like Kentucky and Villanova on their schedule while no such quality foes exist on the William and Mary resume. That pretty much explains away the discrepency in records right there. The Tribe is 0-6 ATS off a conference win the last two seasons while Drexel is 10-2 ATS last 12 times laying points at home. The hosts are also the superior defensive club, allowing just 59.3 PPG on this floor. Drexel is our CAA Game of the Week.

triple-dime bet 103 PHI 4.0 (-110) BetUS vs 104 DAL
Analysis: Play O�n: Philadelphia Eagles (Game 103)
Note: The Eagles meet the Cowboys in an NFL opening round playoff game with redemption on their minds form a pair of losses they have suffered in this series this season. For openers, Philadelphia is 14-5-1 ATS as division dogs withe revenge under head coach Andy Reid, including 7-1 SU and 8-0 ATS when playing off a division game. In addition, the Eagles are 7-0 SU and 5-2 ATS in opening round playoff games under Reid. On the flip side, Dallas head coach Wade Phillips is 1-4 SU and ATS in post season play, including 0-3 SU and ATS when off a division contest. The clincher is the fact that teams in right back rematches who lost both SU and ATS in a season ending finale are 6-1-1 ATS in opening round playoff games since 1988, including 4-0 SU and ATS if they average more than 100 rushing yards per game on the season. Look for the Cowboys to make it seven straight playoff losses in a row here today. We recommend a 3-unit play on Philadelphia.

BUY the 1/2 POINT DOWN to -3...VR

[Mr. IWS]

Craig Davis

Saturday's Lineup


30 Dime – COWBOYS (Buy the 1/2 point)



10 Dime – BENGALS (Make sure this line stays below -3. If it moves up to -3, buy the 1/2 point down)



10 Dime – GEORGETOWN



DALLAS COWBOYS (absolutely, positively buy the half-point) --- I've tried to find every way in the world to take the Eagles in this game, but I just can't do it. I don't care that Andy Reid is 7-0 in the first round of the playoffs. I don't care that the Cowboys haven't won a playoff game since 1996. Eventually these streaks have to come to an end and I see no reason that can't happen today. Remember how badly the Cowboys got raked over the coals for being a horrible December team? Well, somehow they figured out how to get that monkey off their back this year and I believe it's only going to lead to bigger and better things this post-season.



Look, we all know for years the media and other football "gurus" have said the Cowboys were more than talented enough to be a Super Bowl contender, but they could never get over that hump. Whether it was coaching or bad luck, it just wasn't happening as it was supposed to. Sometimes you get the feeling a team might have finally exorcised all its demons and can finally get to the place that everyone has been thinking they'd be for the past few years. Boys and girls, I think this year might just be that year.



Everything seems to be working at just the right time... Roy Williams isn't whining, Tony Romo doesn't have any girlfriend distractions, Wade Phillips is not messing up a good thing, Jason Garrett is finally calling good games, and the defense has finally played up to its expectations. Factor in the running game is where it needs to be, Jason Witten is getting more and more involved, and the offensive line is opening gaping holes for the running game to succeed. Right now, the Cowboys are playing as good as just about anyone in the NFL.



Meanwhile, the Eagles are still a little shell-shocked from what happened last week and now they're starting to point fingers. Remember, this team was winning games in November and December... and winning them handily. Everything was just picture-perfect. Then Dallas not only shut them out, they knocked them from the #2 seed and a first-round bye all the way down to the #6 seed and no chance of hosting a single playoff game. Think about it from the players' perspectives... in the back of your mind you honestly believe you are better than the Cowboys and you have little doubt you'll get a week off. It's got to be a little deflating when you drop five spots in the playoff seeding because of one stupid loss.



And how about the recent reports that Donovan McNabb could be on his way out of Philadelphia after this year? Or that McNabb got into a subtle "war of words" with WR DeSean Jackson about his comments that younger players "stood around waiting for other players to make plays". Sometimes when you handicap a game, you have to throw the numbers out and look at who's hot, who wants it more, and which team has less turmoil surrounding them. I believe Dallas finally believes they are the best team in the NFC, and they'll prove it tonight with a 20-10 win over the Eagles... and yes, I'm well aware it will be the third straight win over Philly.



CINCINNATI (make sure this game stays below 3. if your line moves to 3, buy the half-point down to -2 1/2) --- It's not often I take this many favorites in the playoffs, but I can't argue with logic. We live in a society that remembers things on a short-term basis, so what we saw last Sunday night is hard to forget. Yes, I realize the Bengals didn't play many of their starters in the second half, but that game was over in the first quarter, so let's not even pretend that Cincy had a chance, whether the starters played or not.



All I've kept hearing is how the Jets have the best defense in the league and the best running game in the league and blah, blah, blah. What people fail to realize is that Cincy has a pretty darn good defense themselves, not to mention the fact that Cedric Benson is every bit the running back Thomas Jones is... maybe even better. You see, the Bengals are a completely different team than a year ago because they made it a priority to run the ball despite having a former All Pro QB like Carson Palmer.



And therein lies the biggest difference today... QB. Mark Sanchez vs. Carson Palmer. Who do you want leading the offense you're backing today? Do you want an established veteran who have weapons all over the field playing at home, or do you want a rookie who has more INTs than TDs playing in a hostile environment in his first ever playoff game? The Jets may have an ever-so-slight advantage on defense and in the running game, but the Bengals have a HUGE advantage under center, and that's going to be the difference.

Game: Philadelphia Eagles @ Dallas Cowboys - Saturday January 9, 2010 8:00 pm
Pick: 3 units TOTAL: Over 45 (-110)

Philadelphia and Dallas are meeting for the second consecutive week at Cowboys Stadium yet this total has moved quite a bit more than it should have in my opinion. Last week, the number closed at 47.5 and 48 and early this week, we are seeing 45 and even some 44.5’s out there. The fact that the Eagles were shutout and also the fact that Dallas has two straight shutouts may be leading to this drop as well as the fact that it is playoff time. With this game being played only six days after the last meeting, there should be no drop in this number so we are definitely getting some good value. Philadelphia was shutout for the first time in four years and while that may concern some, it is not concerning me at all. It was not an indication of how the Eagles have been playing as it is more of an aberration than anything. Philadelphia came into that Cowboys game on a six-game victorious streak and had scored 24 points or more in each, averaging 31.2 ppg. After 16 weeks, the offense finally had a bad game but that does not mean that it is going to continue. This offense is simply too good to be held in check two consecutive weeks. The Cowboys defense has been playing great as they have held some good offensive teams to low point totals. Dallas has recorded back-to-back shutouts for the first time in the history of the franchise so it is definitely an impressive feat. There is no chance it will happen three times in a row and I really do not see the defense keeping the Eagles, who are fifth in the NFL in scoring with 26.8 ppg, down again after allowing a combined 16 points in the first two meetings. I know this is a different year but not that much has changed from last season on either side when Philadelphia put up 44 and 37 points in the two meetings. On the other side, the Eagles defense has been extremely inconsistent as it has allowed 24 or more points in five of their last eight games. The Cowboys managed 24 points last Sunday and if the game had been tighter and Dallas needed it, it could have produced more as it did not score over the final 20 minutes of the game. The Cowboys have gone under in eight of their last nine games including both games in this series and that tells me right there it is time to go the other way. The contrarian thinking in me says to do so. 20 points will be the magic number here as the Eagles are 11-1 to the ‘Over’ when both teams hit 20 points while Dallas is 11-0 to the ‘Over’ when both teams hit 20 points. This may seem like 1st grade thinking but what it does say is that over the last two seasons, when the teams are scoring and allowing a fair number of points, these games tend to be shootouts. The Eagles averaged 61.6 ppg in those 12 games while Dallas averaged in 57.1 ppg in those 11 games. 3* Over Philadelphia Eagles/Dallas Cowboys

MREAST NCAAB SATURDAY DESTRUCTION

I think many have a short memory when it comes to this Irish team at home. They have enjoyed perhaps the top homecurt advantage in the country over the past several years. This is a team that is 61-4 in their last 65 in this building. The Big East is arguably the toughest conference of all because of its depth, but the Irish have blown through the Big east winning 27 of their last 29 at home. The last time they were instituted as a home dog, the Irish beat Louisville by 33! Mountaineers on the fast track, but that train has derailed as a small favorite, where they are 1-7 in their last 8 as a road favorite of up to 6.5. Irish will stand tall and proud in this one.

triple-dime bet 103 PHI 4.0 (-110) BetUS vs 104 DAL
Analysis: Play O�n: Philadelphia Eagles (Game 103)
Note: The Eagles meet the Cowboys in an NFL opening round playoff game with redemption on their minds form a pair of losses they have suffered in this series this season. For openers, Philadelphia is 14-5-1 ATS as division dogs withe revenge under head coach Andy Reid, including 7-1 SU and 8-0 ATS when playing off a division game. In addition, the Eagles are 7-0 SU and 5-2 ATS in opening round playoff games under Reid. On the flip side, Dallas head coach Wade Phillips is 1-4 SU and ATS in post season play, including 0-3 SU and ATS when off a division contest. The clincher is the fact that teams in right back rematches who lost both SU and ATS in a season ending finale are 6-1-1 ATS in opening round playoff games since 1988, including 4-0 SU and ATS if they average more than 100 rushing yards per game on the season. Look for the Cowboys to make it seven straight playoff losses in a row here today. We recommend a 3-unit play on Philadelphia

Saturday's NBA Plays
4-Unit Play. #501 Take Atlanta (+3.5) over Orlando (7 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 9)
The Magic have looked awful the last week or so. And with Vince Carter expected to miss, not so sure they should be favored here. The Hawks knocked off Boston last night at home, and here they win on the road over Orlando.
4-Unit Play. #503 Take Memphis (+6) over Charlotte (7 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 9)
The Grizzlies have been playing some good ball and are now over .500. They continue to make a push towards the playoffs and we have said for the last month or so that they will make it. Here they translate their home success into a road win. I just like the overall play from Memphis and think they can turn it up and start winning on the road as well.
