double-dime bet109 KAN / 110 OAK UNDER 43.0 Bodog (http://www.cappersmall.com/forums/redirect-to/?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Frecord.bettingpartners.com% 2F_pO1vV3scjG8UbyPgnoR23mNd7ZgqdRLk%2F1%2F)
Kansas City Chiefs @ Oakland Raiders
2** Play on: UNDER the TOTAL
The OU line in this AFC WEST division clash opened at 43 points. At last look, it was down to 42.5. The KEY NUMBER for us in this game is 41.5. Make sure your line is at least 41.5 or more points before placing your wager. We say this because 41 is a very common number for numerous final scores in the NFL. Many popular scoring combinations can result in a final score that falls right on 41 points. Score like 35-6… 34-7… 31-10… 28-13… 27-14… 24-17… and 21-20.
Why is our optimum number 41.5 instead of 42.5? Well, 42 are not that special of a number. There have been NO games this season that have finished on tip of this number. For a game to finish EXACTLY on 42 points that would require a combination of 6 touchdowns and ZERO field goals. Such a combination (all TD’s / 0 FG’s) is unlikely. Particularly with two offenses that tend to shut down one they get into the red zone. On the flip side, there have already been 15 games this season that have finished with exactly 41 points… 40 points… or 39 points.

EZ's Plays For Thursday

A 2-0 sweep in college basketball on Wednesday! I'm not touching the NFL shitfest between Kansas City and Oakland tonight. Two plays on my card for Thursday. One college basketball afternoon game and one college football game. Best of luck!

-EZ


MCAAF

4* (111) Kansas State Wildcats +2.5

The high powered West Virginia offense has not been so potent lately. The Mountaineers have not reached 300 yards of total offense in their last three games and they have lost two of those games straight up. The K-State defense has had a week to recover from the beating that they took against TCU and I expect them to bounce back. The Wildcats have handled West Virginia easily in the last two meetings between these two teams and the K-State defense made things very tough on quarterback Clint Trickett and this Mountaineer offense in last season's 35-12 win. Kansas State head coach Bill Snyder has an outstanding record against the spread as an underdog and his teams are 13-0 against the spread off of a loss by 21 points or more to a conference rival. Take the points.


NCAAB

1* (729) Drexel Dragons +9

I like this spot to fade what I think will be a dangerous Miami team come tournament time after their big win at #8 Florida. The Canes are a bit over valued in this spot against a talented Drexel team that is sitting at 0-2. Bruiser Flint's Dragons were just 16-14 last season, but had major injuries. Junior guard Damion Lee is back after missing most of last year with a knee injury after averaging over 17 points two seasons ago. Drexel should hang around in this afternoon, tournament neutral site game. Miami should struggle to match their intensity that they played with against the Gators. Take the points.

NBA Inside the Paint - Thursday
By Chris David

Thursday’s pro basketball slate offers up another double-header on TNT, which features not one but two non-conference affairs. Before we break down the matchups, I wanted to bring up the developing total trend that I mentioned in last week’s “Total Talk” installment.

TNT has had eight games featured on national television this regular season and all eight have gone ‘under’ the total, which includes both results last Thursday.

Tuesday, Oct. 28
Dallas 100 San Antonio 101 (Under 203)
Houston 108 L.A. Lakers 90 (Under 207)

Thursday, Oct. 30
New York 95 Cleveland 90 (Under 204)
Oklahoma City 90 L.A. Clippers 93 (Under 205.5)

Thursday, Nov. 6
San Antonio 81 Houston 98 (Under 179)
Dallas 87 Portland 108 (Under 209.5)

Thursday, Nov. 13
Chicago 100 Toronto 93 (Under 196.5)
Brooklyn 99 Golden State 107 (Under 210.5)

There hasn’t been a great lean for choosing sides as we’ve seen home teams produce a 5-3 record.

Point-spreads have mattered in the televised matchup, with favorites going 6-2 straight up and 4-4 against the spread.

There has only been one game pitting the East vs. West and the Warriors took care of business in last week’s win over the Nets.

Neither game for Thursday had overnight numbers posted due to key injuries, which we’ll touch on below.

L.A. Clippers (6-4 SU, 2-8 ATS) at Miami (6-5 SU, 6-5 ATS)

This particular non-conference matchup is tough to handicap because of injuries and the recent history between the pair isn’t a factor since LeBron James isn’t with the Heat anymore. With that being said, I would use current form and situations.

After running past Orlando 114-90 on Wednesday as five-point road favorites, the Clippers will be facing a back-to-back spot. Los Angeles has only played on zero days rest once this season and it beat the Lakers 118-111 on Oct. 31 but failed to cover as 12-point road favorites.

Covering numbers has been a major issue for the Clippers this season, who are 2-8 ATS. Prior to last night's victory, their first cover came last Saturday in a 120-107 victory at home against Phoenix. Unfortunately, Doc Rivers’ team was humbled two nights later to the Bulls (105-89).

This will be the second game of a seven-game road trip for the Clippers and the latest quotes from their head coach could have you scratching your head.

“I’ll tell you in seven games,” Rivers said. “Really, I do like going on the road. I think it is an opportunity to find yourself. You can also lose yourself on the road. So we’ll see.”

Including last night’s meeting, Los Angeles has gone 2-1 SU and 1-2 ATS on the road and one of those wins came at the Staples Center versus the Lakers.

Miami snapped a three-game losing skid on Monday with a 95-83 victory at Brooklyn as an eight-point underdog. The Heat didn’t have Dwyane Wade (hamstring) and Luol Deng (wrist) in the lineup on Monday and both players are currently listed as ‘questionable’ for Thursday.

Wade has already missed three games this season and the team has gone 1-2 in those contests. With the All-Star active, the Heat are 5-3.

Total bettors looking for a lean in this game could go ‘under’ in this spot. Miami has shot the ball well from the field (46.5%) and 3-point land (38.8%) too but the pace has been super slow. The Heat are averaging 75.1 shots per game, which is the lowest in the league. Los Angeles is at 79.2 attempts, which is ranked 26th.

Miami has gone 3-3 both SU and ATS at home this season and will enter tonight’s game looking to snap a two-game skid at American Airlines Arena. The Heat have gone 2-1 both SU and ATS versus the West his season.

As mentioned above, past history shouldn’t be used strongly but make a note that the Heat have won the last three encounters against the Clippers.

Chicago (8-3 SU, 5-6 ATS) at Sacramento (6-5 SU, 7-4 ATS)

The Bulls began their annual circus trip on Monday with a dominating 105-89 victory over the Clipppers as seven-point underdogs. Chicago trailed 50-48 at halftime but outscored L.A. 57-39 in the final two quarters. What was even more impressive about the Bulls’ win on Monday is that Derrick Rose (hamstring) and Pau Gasol (calf) sat out. Rose is expected to play Thursday while Gasol is listed as ‘questionable’ for this game.

Sacramento opened some eyes this season by starting off with a 5-1 record. Unfortunately, this year’s Kings have looked like the same-old Kings lately as they’ve dropped four of their last five and some of the losses were ugly. In setbacks to the Mavericks and Grizzlies last week, Sacramento blew 20-point leads on the road in both contests.

This past Tuesday, Sacramento opened up a 54-45 halftime lead against New Orleans at home. Unfortunately they ran out of gas again and lost 106-100 to the Pelicans as three-point home favorites.

DeMarcus Cousins (22.5 PPG, 11.6 RPG) and Rudy Gay (21.8 PPG) have been playing at a high level for the Kings this season and you could argue that they form the best frontcourt in the league, ranked second in points (69.4 PPG) and first in boards(37.9 RPG). Gay has been deemed 'questionable' for Thursday due to an Achilles injury.

The main issue for the Kings is depth in their backcourt. Darren Collison was a nice pickup at point guard but second-year player Ben McLemore is still raw and the loss of Isiah Thomas to the Suns has been their gain. The Kings backcourt is averaging 33.2 PPG, which is ranked 29th in the NBA.

Chicago continues to impress me each season and it’s easy to see why head coach Tom Thobodeau is considered one of the best in the game. The Bulls have six players averaging double figures and All-Star center Joakim Noah (8.2 PPG) isn’t one of them. Derrick Rose has only played in five games, never more than 32 minutes, and the Bulls are 4-1 in those games. Without Rose, the team is 4-2.

If you want to find a good NBA team, then look for one that wins on the road. Chicago is 6-0 as a visitor this season and it captured closed calls against inferior teams in Minnesota (106-105) and Philadelphia (118-115), which is a sign of a good team to me.

Kings should have confidence for this matchup since they destroyed the Bulls in their last two meetings at home by 42 and 29 points.

Game of the Day: Kansas State at West Virginia

Kansas State Wildcats at West Virginia Mountaineers (-2.5, 58)

Kansas State tries to bounce back from a devastating loss at TCU when it visits West Virginia on Thursday night, but the oddsmakers do not see it happening as the unranked Mountaineers are favored to defeat the No. 11 Wildcats. Kansas State was in the national championship picture before dropping a 41-20 decision to the Horned Frogs on Nov. 8, but still has an outside shot to win the Big 12 title with wins in its final three games and some help. The Wildcats are tied with No. 6 Baylor - one-half game behind No. 5 TCU - with a showdown looming with the Bears in Waco, Texas, on Dec. 6 to finish the regular season.

West Virginia has dropped two straight, including a 31-30 decision to TCU on Nov. 1 before falling at Texas 33-16 on Nov. 8. While the Mountaineers are not involved in the Big 12 race, they will be tough to beat on Senior Night. "We still have things to fight for like a good bowl game,'' junior safety K.J. Dillon said in Monday's press conference. "No one is down, everyone still wants to win for the seniors this Thursday and wants to win and finish out a good season."

TV: 7 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1.

LINE HISTORY: West Virginia opened as 1.5-point home favorites and have been bet up a point to sit at -2.5. The total has remained at the opening number of 58.

INJURY REPORT: N/A.

WEATHER REPORT: It will be a chilly night in West Virginia with temperatures in the mid 20's for the game. There will also be a 20 percent chance of snow flurries to go along with an 11 mile per hour wind blowing across the field from west to east.

WHAT CAPPERS SAY: "This one might mean a little more to West Virginia as it checks in sporting a modest 6-4 SU record this season but who's interested in standing in front of Bill Snyder's Kansas State Wildcats in an underdog role? The Wildcats were embarrassed in a nationally-televised showdown with TCU last time out, so you can be sure the Mountaineers will get their best effort here. With that being said, West Virginia will be highly-motivated as well, coming off back-to-back losses, including a blowout at the hands of Texas. Expecting a tight game here, leaning toward taking the points." Sean Murphy.

ABOUT KANSAS STATE (7-2, 6-3 ATS, 6-3 O/U): The Wildcats have two of the top receivers in the Big 12 in Tyler Lockett (60 receptions, 14.6 yards per catch, six touchdowns) and Curry Sexton (53, 13.6, four), but might be better off trying to run. Quarterback Jake Waters (63.6 completion rate, 13 TDs, four interceptions) has rushed for 406 yards and seven TDs, second in both departments to Charles Jones (430, 11), and they'll go against a defense that yields an average of 181.5 rushing yards - eighth in the 10-team Big 12. Kansas State won its first two road games versus Iowa State and Oklahoma by a combined five points.

ABOUT WEST VIRGINIA (6-4, 6-4 ATS, 3-7 O/U): Quarterback Clint Trickett is putting together a solid season with a 68.3 completion rate and 18 touchdowns against eight interceptions. His favorite target is wide receiver Kevin White, who has 91 catches (second in the nation) for 1,207 yards (third) and eight TDs. The Mountaineers can also get it done on the ground with Wendell Smallwood (585 yards, two TDs), Rushel Shell (560, six) and Dreamius Smith (411, five).

TRENDS:

* Kansas State is 6-0 ATS in its last six games following a bye week.
* West Virginia is 0-7 in its last seven games following a bye week.
* Over is 5-0 in Kansas State's last five road games versus a team with a winning home record.
* Under is 6-0 in West Virginia's last six games overall.

CONSENSUS: The consensus is fairly split with just 52 percent of wagers backing West Virginia at -2.5.

Money Line: -150 Southern Methodist

This game has the 1-1 SMU at the 2-0 Indiana. SMU lost a tough one at Gonzaga but they are still one of the best teams in College Basketball. Indiana is 2-0 but has not faced anyone that would give them a game like SMU will. SMU is coming off a NIT championship and alot is expected from them they are in year 3 under Larry Brown. SMU has the better team from top to bottom. The public is 50/50 on this game but the line went from 2 to 3 in most spots. Big value here as we get the much better team at a small line. Play SMU to win straight but if you have to lay the points for a 10* winner.

Well there isn't much to say about last week. Nevada lost in OT and couldn't cover, and Mississippi State scored a last second touchdown to cover the spread against Alabama. It's been rough goings for me in College Football, but I continue to put in the work to try and finish strong. Two picks tonight.
2 UNIT = Kansas State @ West Virginia - [112] WEST VIRGINIA -2.5 (-104)
(Note: I'm risking 2.00 units to win 1.92 units)
2 UNIT = North Carolina @ Duke - [113] NORTH CAROLINA +6 (-102)

*This teaser is available at a couple of sportsbooks (5dimes (http://www.5dimes.com/)) that have their lines shaded to prevent against people teasing the Chiefs down below 3. If you can't bet this teaser with Raiders at +14.5 or better I would recommend a 2 unit pick on the Raiders against the spread tonight.

Strike Point Sports CBB:

4-Unit Play. #711 Take SMU (-2.5) over Indiana (8 p.m., Thursday, November 20)
This is another early non-conference road game where we back the away squad. But it makes sense. SMU is in a much better position, not just their overall prospects for this season but also how capable they are early on in the schedule. The Mustangs have three returning starters from their 27-win team in 2013. Add to that two double-digit scorers as new pieces via transfer, one from Xavier and the other from Texas Tech. Indiana lost several of their best players from last season and Yogi Farrell isn't enough to best an SMU squad that is balanced and capable of getting production from so many players. This is a modest number, but it's low because this game is at Indiana. Nonetheless, the better team is favored and they come through with a quality true road victory.

The free NBA Totals play is on the under in the LA. at Miami game. Rotation numbers 701/7012 at 8:05 eastern. Miami has gone under the total in 7 of their last 8 games, and all 3 vs Non conference teams. This game fits a solid totals system that has played under in 80% of games since 1995. Play the under for home teams with rest like Miami if they covered by 14+ points as a road dog of 5 or more points and are playing an opponent like the Clippers that also covered by 14+ points on the road but did so as a favorite. Wade for Miami is still banged up and may not play. The Clippers played much better last night in a blowout win over Orlando and this one figures to be a lower scoring game. Take the under. On Thursday the NFL Power 5 play takes center stage and has 5 league wide long term power systems. In NCAAF Action we have the 23-0 College Football game of the week and an Undefeated NCAAB Power angle play.

***OAKLAND (+7.5 -120) 22 Kansas City 20

Thu Nov-20-2014 at 05:25 PM Pacific Rotation: 110 Over/Under 42.5

This is a good spot for the Raiders as they get the visiting Chiefs on a short week in between high profile games. Kansas City was fortunate to come away with a close 24-20 win last week at home against the Seahawks in a hard fought game against the Super Bowl champs and have a showdown at the top of the division at home against the Broncos in primetime next Sunday night. This is a soft spot in their schedule and facing an 0-10 team, it’s going to be hard to get motivated on a short travel week. On the other side, the Raiders will be fired up to get the spotlight at home and should bring an inspired effort in a game that they could win. Kansas City has been an about average team from the line of scrimmage offensively, generating 329 total yards at 5.4 yppl against teams that allow 330 yards at 5.3 yppl but have converted third downs at a 48% rate (#3 ranking) and have been good in the red zone (69.7% for a #3 ranking). On the other side, the Raiders have a #30 ranking in offensive third down conversions. Some regression to the mean is possible in both of those stats and if that is the case in this game, the Raiders could surprise. Oakland is last in the league as well with a -12 turnover differential but have had negative fumble luck while the Chiefs have had slightly positive fumble luck. As a result, Oakland qualifies in a turnover based 498-409-15 situation. They also qualify in a 53-21-4 home dog situation as well as a 52-21 situation that plays on winless teams in the back half of the season. With a good spot and solid systems on their side, I’ll take the Raiders +7.5 -120 for 3-stars to +7 and for 2-stars at down to +6.
***Cleveland (+3.5 -125) 27 Atlanta 21

Sun Nov-23-2014 at 10:00 AM Pacific Rotation: 251 Over/Under 46.5

The Browns didn’t play well last week in their 7-23 loss at home against the Texans but they were coming off of a big divisional statement win in Cincinnati against their in-state rivals and were flat as a result. The same thing happened earlier this season after they clobbered the Steelers in Week 6 (31-10) then lost as a favorite the following week to the previously winless Jaguars (6-24). Just as they bounced back the week after that game for a ten point win against the Raiders (24-14), I expect that they’ll bounce back in this spot as well. Cleveland is right in the thick of it in the AFC North with a 6-4 record and they know that they can’t afford to slip up here. They should be able to move the ball well against a Falcons defense that has not been good this season in allowing 404 total yards at 6.1 yppl to teams that average 343 yards at 5.5 yppl. Cleveland should get a boost from the return of WR Josh Gordon, who is coming off his ten game suspension to start the season. Last year, Gordon led the NFL with 1646 receiving yards on 87 receptions for an 18.9 yard average with nine touchdowns without a competent quarterback. His return, coupled with the return last week of 2014 Browns leading receiver Andrew Hawkins, should provide the Browns passing offense with a spark. They’ll face the NFL’s worst pass defense that has allowed 280 yards at 7.8 yps to teams that gain 239 yards at 6.3 yps on average and provide a great matchup for the Cleveland passing offense.

On the other side, the Browns defend the pass well (allowing 229 yards at 6.0 yps to teams that gain 243 yards at 6.5 yps) and should be able to minimize the Falcons strength, which is their passing offense. Atlanta is coming off of two divisional wins and find themselves in first place in the bad NFC South with a 4-6 record and any may not have their best in this non-conference game. The Browns benefit from a negative 53-113-3 statistical match-up situation that plays against Atlanta as well as a 103-53-4 situation that plays on dogs that lost big as a favorite last week. My model predicts a 2.0 point Browns victory in this one, so with what appears to be a good spot, with good situations and some line value, I’ll take the Browns +3.5 (-125) for 3-stars down to +3 -115 and for 2-stars at up to +3 -1

**TOLEDO (-6) 38 Bowling Green 24

Wed Nov-19-2014 at 05:00 PM Pacific Rotation: 108 Over/Under 54.0

I’ll assume that starting quarterback Logan Woodside will not play this week for Toledo and that may actually be a good thing. When I wrote up last week’s opinion on Toledo against Northern Illinois I mentioned that I wasn’t impressed with backup quarterback Michael Julian and that I wouldn’t be surprised if WR Dwight Macon came in at quarterback if Julian was ineffective. Julian was ineffective but Macon didn’t line up behind center until Julian suffered a concussion and after Woodside tried to play a series with his injured leg. Macon took over and completed 8 of 11 passes for 130 yards on 13 pass plays (including 2 sacks) and ran for 107 yards on 16 runs to nearly lead the Rockets to a comeback win before falling 3 points short. Macon’s good play wasn’t that surprising to me given he was recruited to play quarterback and was switched to wide receiver to get his talent on the field in an era when the Rockets had two very good starting quarterbacks in Terrance Owens and Austin Dantin. Macon was actually rated higher as a quarterback coming out of high school than any of the Toledo quarterbacks except Alabama transfer Phillip Ely, who suffered a season ending injury in week 2. It appears to me as if the line has been significantly adjusted for Toledo being down to their 4th string quarterback but I actually think the position has been upgraded with Macon, who actually knows the offense better than any of the quarterbacks, having been in the system longer than anyone on the team, and adds a running element that the other quarterbacks didn’t show. I’m not going to adjust Toledo’s offensive rating components upward, even though I feel it’s warranted based on Macon’s talent and what he showed last week, but I’m certainly not going to lower the Rockets’ offensive ratings. The overall offensive projection does end up being lower because Toledo will run the ball more with Macon at quarterback, which plays into the strength of a Bowling Green defense that is horrible defending the pass (6.7 yards per pass play allowed despite facing quarterbacks that would combine to average only 5.5 yppp against an average defense) but the math still projects Toledo to gain 531 yards at 6.6 yards per play in this game which is more than reasonable given that Toledo has averaged 500 total yards at 6.3 yppl this season (against teams that are 0.3 yppl worse than average defensively) and the Bowling Green’s defense is allowing 508 yards per game and are rated at 0.5 yppl worse than average even after dampening the affect of the 648 rushing yards at 11.5 yprp that they allowed to Wisconsin. I did take into account that Toledo would run the ball a lot more than normal, which would lower the total number of plays in this game, but Bowling Green runs their offense at a very fast pace and Toledo is still projected to run 80 plays because they’ll have more possessions to work with.

Bowling Green’s offense looks pretty good when you look at total yards (457) and points (32.6 per game) but the Falcons run a lot of plays with their no huddle offense, which disguises the fact that they are actually not good offensively. The Falcons have averaged 5.7 yards per play despite facing teams that would allow 6.3 yppl to an average attack and my model projects 407 yards at 5.4 yppl on the road against a Toledo defense that is just as bad (6.1 yppl allowed to teams that would average 5.4 yppl against an average defense).

Toledo is projected to outgain Bowling Green by 124 total yards and predicts a 15 point win by the Rockets (with 64 ½ total points). The projection also is based on normal weather and the weather for this game is expected to be cold and windy with some snow, which actually could help Toledo if it gets really windy (since Bowling Green is more of a passing team that would be negative affected by the wind). Regardless of which side the weather may favor (maybe neither) it is likely to result in fewer points than my model predicts, but I still think the total has been adjusted too much for the weather and for Toledo having a 4th string quarterback (who I think is at least as good as the other Rockets’ quarterbacks). The math model gives Toledo a 56.2% chance to cover based on the historical performance of the model and I’ll take Toledo in a 2-Star Best Bet at -7 points or less. I will also consider the Over (54) a Strong Opinion at 55 points or less.
**Arkansas State (-5) 35 TEXAS STATE 22

Thu Nov-20-2014 at 06:30 PM Pacific Rotation: 115 Over/Under 58.5

Arkansas State played their worst game of the season last week in a 32-37 upset loss to Appalachian State but the Red Wolves haven’t lost consecutive games to the spread since last October and last week’s result has supplied us with added line value tonight. Texas State has played relatively well lately but the Bobcats haven’t proven good enough to beat a team like Arkansas State. In fact, all 5 of Texas State’s victories this season have been against teams that are at least 12 points worse than an average FBS team (Ark Pine Bluff, Tulsa, Idaho, UL Monroe and New Mexico State) and the Bobcats are equally bad on both sides of the football – rating at 0.8 yards per play worse than average on offense (5.5 yards per play against teams that would allow 6.3 yppl to an average team) and 0.7 yppl worse than average defensively (5.9 yppl allowed to teams that would combine to average 5.2 yppl against an average team). Arkansas State has been 0.2 yppl worse than average offensively for the season but they played two games without star RB Michael Gordon (844 yards at 7.3 ypr) and top WR J.D. McKissic missed nearly all of the last 3 games, which hurt the pass attack. Quarterback Fredi Knighten averaged just 5.1 yards per pass play the last two games without his security blanket (he’s completed 83% of his passes intended for McKissic this season) after averaging 7.0 yppp in the previous 6 games this season against worse than average pass defenses with McKissic playing. McKissic is back this week, which should help the pass attack and get the 3rd down conversion rate back up and Gordon should post big rushing numbers against a Texas State defense that has allowed an average of 239 rushing yards at 5.5 yards per rushing play in 9 games against FBS opponents that would combine to average just 4.8 yprp against an average team. The Bobcats are also poor defending the pass (6.4 yppp allowed to quarterbacks that would combine to average 5.5 yppp against an average team), so Knighten could go back to his 7.0-plus yppp level with McKissic back. My math model projects 521 yards at 6.3 yppp for Arkansas State in this game, which should get them over their average of 33.8 points (on 449 average total yards).

Texas State’s sub-par offense is projected to tally just 379 total yards at 5.0 yppl against a solid Arkansas State defense that’s allowed just 5.3 yards per play this season to a collection of opponents that would average 5.4 yppl against an average defense. The Red Wolves have a good chance to win by 7 points or more with a projected 142 yards advantage and a slight edge in projected turnovers (Knighten has thrown just 4 interceptions all season). My math model calls for a play on the Red Wolves and I’ll take Arkansas State in a 2-Star Best Bet at -7 points or less.

4-Unit Play. Take #737 Syracuse (-4.5) over California (9 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 20)

I love the Orange tonight. They are playing in New York City and they always have a huge advantage there. The Orange get great crowd support and they will be excited to play this game in this tournament. The Orange played Cal in Maui last November. They won that game easily, 92-81, and I think they will do the same thing tonight. The Orange also beat Cal in the NCAA Tournament in March of 2013 so they have beaten Cal twice in the last 20 months. Tonight they go for the sweep!Syracuse has one of the strongest frontcourts in the country and they have their patented 2-3 zone. They are a Top 10 scoring defense through two games and they were more impressive in the lead-up to this game. Syracuse will be too much for the Bears tonight and they will take advantage of their crowd advantage and travel edge.

5-Unit Play. Take #730 Miami -9.5 over Drexel (Thursday, November 20th at 3:00 p.m.)
Many will consider this a let down spot for the Hurricanes but I’m not buying it. This Hurricanes team is led by two guards that transfered in from other schools and they have something to prove. Former Kansas State guard, Angel Rodriguez, certainly proved his value in the big upset win over Florida. Former Texas guard, Sheldon McClellan, didn’t have as big of an impact but he did play the most minutes (39) of anyone on the team. Today, the Hurricanes face an inferior opponent, Drexel, in the opening game of the Gilden Charleston Classic. Drexel has stumbled out of the gate with two losses at Colorado and vs St. Joe’s. The Dragons have had some bad luck with injuries the past few seasons but this year they simply don’t have the overall talent to be a contender. They would have to play a near perfect game to stay within the number in this ballgame. St. Joe’s beat them on their home court and St. Joe’s lost by 52 points last night at Gonzaga. I know the Zags are good but 52 points. Fifty-Two points. Miami will roll today and move on in the winner’s bracket of the tournament.
Take Miami.
4-Unit Play. Take #731 Penn State -3 over Charlotte (Thursday, November 20th at 5:30 p.m.)
Penn State has a roster that is starting to resemble a solid Big Ten roster. They have a potential Big Ten player of the year candidate in guard D.J. Newbill. He finished second in the league in scoring last season and the senior can play the point or the two guard position. The Nittany Lions also return three other starters and they will get a big contribution from Pitt transfer, John Johnson, all season long. Shep Garner is a highly touted freshmen guard and he has played well in the early season. Charlotte is a solid but not great team. They should have a better year this year than last year but they will certainly miss Shawn Lester who opted to turn pro and play overseas. This game will come down to guard play and Penn State’s rotation of guards is better and deeper than Charlotte’s. Newbill will have a big game on the national stage today. I look for Charlotte to keep it close and perhaps have a lead at halftime. However, the Nittany Lions will pull away to an 8 or 9 point victory in the second half.
Take Penn State.
4-Unit Play. Take #712 Indiana +3 over SMU (Thursday, November 20th at 8:00 p.m.)
Indiana is a guard laden team and Crean has started four guards in each of their two games this season. That’s a perfect matchup for the Hoosiers vs SMU. Neither team will have a dominant big man in this game and like the Penn State/Charlotte game, this game will come down to guard play. Indiana certainly isn’t a legit contender for a Big Ten title but they do have some legitimate guards that can play. Yogi Ferrell is the most talented guard on the team and he will be looked upon to provide scoring and leadership. James Blackmon and Robert Johnson are two very good freshmen guards and it will be fun to watch how they play vs a solid SMU backcourt. SMU has some very good players but the loss of Markus Kennedy (eligibility) and the decision of Emmanuel Mudiay to play pro ball instead of attend SMU has put a huge damper on their season. Indiana is a tough place to play and SMU has already failed one road test this season when Gonzaga picked them apart in a 16-point defeat. Indiana is certainly not Gonzaga but they are at home and the strength of their team matches up well with the strength of the Mustangs. This will be a fun game to watch on many different levels and the Hoosiers will pull off the home win by 5-8 points.
Take Indiana.

Charleston @ UCONN


Early afternoon game in San Juan features the defending champs against a rebuilt Charleston squad. The huskies came out of the gates slow and grinded out a W in the end against a weak Bryant team. That game was almost a full week ago and I cant imagine that it has been a fun week at practice with Coach Ollie. I expect a highly motivated team to show up on this occasion.


My take is Charleston is that this team is filled with what I call "hoisters". Guys that are not afraid to chuck up 3's. If the long balls drop, they have a chance of hanging within the number. If they miss, the long rebounds will lead to easy UCONN breaks where Boatwright is fantastic at finding teammates in transition.


The total number has dropped to 127.5(5dimes) which doesnt scare me away...just means its time to FIRE.


OVER 127.5




George Mason vs. WVU




The Mountaineers are another team who came out of the gates slow after high offseason expectations. Potential Big 12 POY Juwan Staten may be the best PG in the nation. I see a lot of Shabazz Napier in his game, the ability to make shots combined with veteran leadership will be key to this teams success. WVU also has a couple big boys down low, particular Williams aka rec specs, who hound the glass the way Huggins teaches it.


Mason played in a couple close teams and actually came away with a solid win over Princeton. The were able to use their size and athleticism to wear down a couple Ivy League teams. I don't see them being the more physical team in this matchup, and their lack of ability to make jump shots will prove problematic.


WVU -9 is the pick

Miami Heat +4

LA is on a b2b, playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, after traveling all of the way across-country for yesterday’s game. They’ll take on a well rested Miami team that had 2-days off prior to tonight. Yesterday the Clips were -5 @ ORL, and now a day after and in a more challenging physical spot, they’re -4 at Miami? Are the Heat on the same level as Orlando? Of course not, but Miami is dealing with some injury issues. Wade is out. Deng was listed as doubtful but did go through the shoot-around. Neither Deng nor McRoberts (nor Wade) played on Monday yet Miami still won @ BKN. McRoberts is expected back, and from what I know of Deng from his days with Chicago, if he’s able to get through a shoot-around, he should be able to play as well. Clippers have beaten OKC, LAL, UTA, POR, PHX, and ORL this seasion, as only POR is a ‘playoff team’ (OKC will be also when KD and RW return). Clippers are 1-4 SU and 0-5 ATS against true ‘playoff’ contenders, and now will play against another one on the road in a challenging spot. I believe they’re overvalued, especially if Deng suits up tonight.

Sacramento Kings -3

Bulls are 6-0 SU on the road so easy pick on them tonight to continue their winning ways right? Well, no team can go 41-0 on the road in the NBA, so eventually everyone losses. So could today be the day when Chicago gets its first road loss? Quiet possibly. First, they will once again be without Pau Gasol and Rose. Rose is not a surprise and Chicago is pretty used to playing without him - they have been for over the last 2+ years. Gasol though is a bigger loss. He’s 2nd on a team with a 21.5 PER (behind Butler’s 22.6), he is the guy that enables Chicago to have such great ‘big man’ depth (Noah, Gasol, and Taj), and he’s also excellent at spacing the floor as he has a deadly mid-range jump shot, something that Noah does not. Gibson has a good jump-shot, but it’s not nearly as polished as Gasol. Bulls played well without Gasol @ LAC, but today could be a lot tougher. Second key factor is a huge rebounding differential between these two teams. Bulls rank 29th in DRB-rate while Kings are 1st on the offensive boards. In addition Kings are 2nd in DRB% while Bulls are 18th on the offensive boards. You don’t normally associate Chicago with ‘poor rebounding’ but that has been the case this year. A lot of that has to do with Noah not being 100% fit after his off-season knee surgery. He just doesn’t have the same lift right now, which could be a major issue against Cousins, one of the most dominant forces in the game today. Finally, maybe the reason that the Kings could win today’s game is that they’re a better team. Yes, Chicago has a +5.4 differential to Sacramento’s +0.5, but are the Bulls really 5-points better? Kings are 6-5 this year but only have one bad loss, @ OKC on the road. They have played GSW, POR, LAC, PHX, DAL, MEM, SAS, and NOP. That’s a lot of quality teams. Chicago has faced CLE (first game of the season for the Cavs who are still learning to play with one another), TOR, and LAC (who aren’t at the same level as last year). Besides these 3 teams, they’ve been playing squads like NYK, MIN, ORL, MIL, PHI, BOS, DET, and IND. The difference in strength of schedules are very drastic, so Kings’ +0.5 MOV is just as impressive, if not more so, than Chicago’s +5.4. Besides, Bulls lost to IND and BOS at home this year, so this team is capable of a let-down game at any moment. They’re coming off a big win @ LAC and will face a very strong POR team on the road tomorrow. Kings are off a bad home loss to the Pellies, so I’d expect a bounce-back here. I think this is a great spot for the home team and a prime spot for Bulls to get their first loss of the year.

3-Unit Play #701 Take LA Clippers/Miami UNDER 197.5 (8 p.m. EST, Thursday)

Even though the Clippers thumped the Magic last night, we are still not convinced that this team is right offensively yet, and we are even more skeptical that they can do it twice in two nights on the road. Not to mention they are facing a pretty good defensive team in the Heat. Miami is No. 6 for points allowed this season. They also really like to slow down the game and among the bottom 4 teams in the league in pace. There is a good reason the under is 7-4 in their 11 games played so far. They will also be without Dwyane Wade, who has been ruled out this game, so that will hurt their offense. The Clippers offense is in the middle of the pack so far this season, and they should be much better than this, and the team belongs in the Top 3. They will probably get better as the season progresses, but right now they are not consistent, and we don't expect them to have a good night against this D on a back-to-back. And Miami has been mostly stronger on defense than offense, and we don't see them breaking out for a huge point total, either.

7 Unit Play Take #704 Sacaramento -1.5 over Chicago (10:35pm est):

The Chicago Bulls could be without two of their top guys here in this one due to injuries. The Bulls overcame those absences in their last game winning 105-89 against the LA Clippers. That was the opening game of a big seven game road trip for Chicago. The 1st game of a long road trip is usually the one game where you see teams bring their best effort as their excited and focused on getting things started off on the right foot. It's after that 1st road game where teams start to feel the grind from being away from home, especially for team like Chicago playing out west like they are here in this one.

The Sacramento Kings started out the season red hot going 5-0 overall but things have went south since then as they have dropped 4 of their last 5 games overall. Many of the Kings players aren't happy about their recent play inlcuding Darren Collison who said he felt the Kings should have won their last game, a 106-100 loss to New Orleans. Collison even went as far as to say he felt the Kings lacked the effort needed to win after blowing a halftime lead in the game. Players don't usually like to call out their teammates for effort but be assured when they do it's heard by all. Now add that in with the fact this is a big TNT nationally televised game also tonight. Most home teams get up for this game as they know that their usually the only NBA game that's being played at that time and so the rest of the league will be watching.

The Kings have faced the 2nd toughest schedule in the NBA coming into this contest as four of their five losses were against teams with a combined 33-11 record thus far. The other defeat was against a desperate Oklahoma City team who was 1-5 at the time and at home in what felt like was a must win situation. The Bulls on the other hand have benefitted greatly playing in the much weaker Eastern Conference and have played the easiest schedule in the league to start the year.

Take Sacramento here.

4 Unit Play. #706 Take Michigan -18 over Detroit (6 pm BTN) Detroit is coming back from a west coast trip to Oregon late Monday night and I do not expect them to have their legs for this game. They fell apart in the second half and expect Michigan to dominate this game for 40 minutes.

4 Unit Play. #710 Take Maryland -17 over Fordham (7:30 pm BTN+) Fordham is always a bottom feeder team in the ACC and today will be no different.

MSG has been a favorite of Coach Boeheim and we will side with them tonight with this short number against Cal. The Golden Bears were just a middle of the pack team last year in the PAC-12 and I do not see them being much better this season. The Orange are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 nonconference games. Cal is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games against teams from the ACC. Syracuse always has a winning streak to start the season and tonight will be no different.

CFB - 1st Half Play - West Virginia -125 (ML)

NBA Info

Thibs says Rose and Gasol are both out tonight.

Both Luol Deng (wrist) and Josh McRoberts (foot) went through this morning’s team shootaround.

FWIW - Deng has been 'upgraded' to probable.......D_Wade still a question mark and I doubt he plays..
