Stephen Nover's Big East Game of the Month

Georgetown vs St. John's
3* Georgetown +7.5 (-110)

I liked and respected Chris Mullin as a basketball player. But I don't think much of his coaching abilities. And I don't believe his St. John's team is good enough to be laying this many points to Georgetown. The Red Storm have yet to win a Big East game going 0-4. They are second-to-last in the conference in rebounding differential and have a weak perimeter defense. Georgetown averages nearly 81 points. St. John's averages 71.8 points, last in the conference. St. John's continues to be without injured Marcus LoVett and it has shown in bad home losses to DePaul and Providence. The Hoyas have covered all three of their lined road games this season. The line is high because the Hoyas are coming off a 90-66 home loss to Creighton. The good news, though, about that loss was that Georgetown's two best players, Jessie Govan and Markus Derrickson, played reduced mintues. Both should be fresh and fired-up for this matchup.



Stephen Nover's MAC Dominator

Ball State vs Ohio
Ohio -1 (-110)

Ohio is 7-1 at home this season and catches Ball State traveling out of Indiana for the first time since before Thanksgiving. Often times a team that had a long winning streak just end doesn't play well in their next game. Ball State is in that position. The Cardinals had their nine-game win streak snapped this past Saturday losing by 20 points to Buffalo at home. Buffalo exposed the Cardinals' inconsistent perimeter game and lack of size. Ohio can do the same. The Cardinals are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 road contests after playing three or more home games in a row. Ball State isn't expected to have starting guard Jontrell Walker either. He was supsended indefinitely on Saturday after being charged with domestic battery.


Stephen Nover's NHL Tuesday Top Ticket

Calgary (Flames) vs Minnesota (Wild)
Min Wild -114

The price is right here to get the Wild at home. Minnesota has been dominant at Xcel Energy Center going 11-1-1 during its last 13 games there, including winning four in a row. The Wild outscored their last four opponents at home by a combined 12 goals. The Wild have extra incentive after being humiliated by Colorado on the road this past Saturday, 7-2. The Flames are 0-2 versus the Wild this season. Minnesota won both games with Alex Stalock in net where he'll be tonight.

Stephen Nover's NBA

Heat vs Raptors
Raptors -3.5 (-110)

The Raptors have won five in a row averaging 121.8 points per game during this span.
Toronto has been dominant at home with a 14-1 record. Yet the line is much shorter than normal because Kyle Lowry is out. I believe the marketplace has overreacted to this injury.
The Raptors are much better than the Heat. They've defeated the Heat the past five times in Toronto, too.
DeMar DeRozan, who is on fire, is the Raptors' key player not Lowry. Miami has a couple of injuries, too, with Dion Waiters and Justise Winslow both out.

Dave Essler

3* Marquette

Analysis:
One angle I like a lot is Conference Tournament revenge. It's not the be-all, end-all or this would be easy, but it helps, and Seton Hall knocked Marquette out of the Big East Tournament last season in the first round. It was a six-point game, and both their regular season games were three points games. If Seton didn't just beat Butler this would probably have Marquette favored by a couple, and of course Marquette lost at 'Nova, but played well. Seton's win over Butler was just their third road game, and before this little run (at home) this is a team that lost at Rutgers. This (Seton) is going to be a tough team to back on the road for me if for no other reason than the fact that they're not a great FT shooting team. Marquette IS. IF Seton has a weakness on offense it's protecting the ball and Marquette has been turning people over. Seton is the #1 three-point shooting team so far in Conference play, but Marquette has the #2 defense and that's including a game against Villanova. On the road last season Seton lost their first six Big East games - they beat Butler on the road to end the season but their other two road wins were G'town and and DePaul (barely) - Marquette only LOST two home games last season and barely‰, to Butler and Providence (by one). It looks to me like the wrong team is favored.



1* Texans &am +6

Analysis:
Aggies get healthy tonight - I'll play it smaller in part because more of the planet seem to like the Aggies which as we know from experience can be a bad thing. A & M is plenty big enough to handle Kentucky, who doesn't REALLY have a good win (by their standards) since beating Kansas. I don't count Louisville since it's their rivalry game and L'ville's issues. Kentucky beat these guys twice last season, once (here) in brutal fashion and although it might be different players - the Aggies certainly don't care. If Kentucky can't control the pace, and I worry about that being so young, they may not win this game. When healthy, Texas A & M has two losses by a total of four points, and they've beaten some good teams away or on neutral sites -

MAX" 3* on MICHIGAN/PURDUE OVER 140

We missed the best number on this, but I sill love this at 140. I have this game landing in the mid to high 140's after 40 minutes of play. This Michigan team SHOULD have success beyond the arc from the 3-ball land this evening. This team is extremely dangerous offensively when they are at HOME. I expect their shooters to have success on their home court here. On the flip side we have another extremely good offensive club in Purdue. So, we have two potent offenses who can really get hot from 3-ball land and add on the fact that this should be a close game, we very well could get a slew of points at the end of the game, due to fouling. Fouling and stoppage of the clock and the strong ability to shoot beyond the arc equates to a high % of this game going OVER this number. My strongest Big-10 source (Sam) is on this over as well, and I'm all over the OVER between these two clubs tonight.

VSI NHL HOCKEY

4 Unit Play. Take #60 St. Louis -160 over Florida (7:05p.m., Tuesday January 9)
The St. Louis Blues come back home to the Scottrade Center after dropping back-to-back road games but tonight the Blues look for 4-straight home wins. Florida comes to St. Louis struggling to win road games and the Panthers have dropped 3-straight road games giving up 12 goals and if the Blues can grab an early lead I see St. Louis having no trouble winning this game. I hate laying such a big number in the NHL but again the way Florida has been playing on the road I believe the Blues is the 'Best Bet' on the NHL board. St. Louis is 8-3 in their last 11 meetings against Florida and the Panthers are 9-23 in their last 32 road games.

VSI NBA BASKETBALL

3 Unit Play. Take #507 Over 214 Sacramento at Los Angeles Lakers (10:35p.m., Tuesday January 9)
The Lakers defense has given up an average of 120.8ppg in their last 8 games and with the Kings coming to Staples Center trending over games I see this game flying over. The Kings last 5 games 4 of them have gone over and with the Lakers healthy now I see this game tonight flying over. Sacramento is 6-1 O/U against Western Conference opponents and the Lakers are 7-0 O/U against division teams and the Lakers are 5-1 O/U in their last 6 home games.

Tuesday's College Basketball Plays

3-Unit Play. #512 Take Indiana (+1.5) over Penn State (7 p.m., Tuesday, January 9)

Not sure Penn State should be favored in Bloomington, but we'll take IU without having to lay a point on their home floor. The Hoosiers have one of the more productive and underrated players in the Big Ten in Juwun Morgan (15 points, 7 rebounds), and I don't see the Nittany Lions being able to stop him nor keep Indiana from a home win in this one. Penn State hasn't challenged themselves much on the road, and we'll back the Hoosiers coming off their strong win at Minnesota.

3-Unit Play. #520 Take Eastern Michigan (-4.5) over Central Michigan (7 p.m., Tuesday, January 9)

Eastern Michigan has tallied a modest 9-6 record, but its at home where the majority of the Eagles' success has come. EMU is 7-1 in Ypsilanti, and tonight they get a conference opponent they've dominated in recent memory. Central Michigan has definitely overacheived at 12-3 this season. Last season they graduated the top scorer in the country in Marcus Keane (30 ppg) as well as Braylon Rayson (21 ppg). No team lost two more prolific scorers than did the Chippewas. And despite their early success this year, Eastern has their number. The Eagles have won the last four meetings with Central by an average of 21.2 points per win. Eastern Michigan is getting great production out of Robert Morris graduate transfer Elijah Minnie (17 points, 6 rebounds), and he is a lethal combination with double-double machine James Thompson IV (15 points, 11 rebounds). These two are going to be dominant on the block tonight and a big reason for the home team's big win here. Eastern Michigan is 3-1 ATS this season as a favorite, while Central Michigan has allowed 82 points in road games. This is an opponent the Eagles know they confidently can defeat and will do so to get back in the win column and register their first in MAC Play.

3-Unit Play. #533 Take Rhode Island (-7.5) over Saint Louis (7 p.m., Tuesday, January 9)

Rhode Island is 11-3 and the three teams they have lost to have a combined record of 38-10 (Nevada, Virginia and Alabama). Since the most recent of those losses, the Rams have won six straight, the last four all by double digits. And in this one they face a Saint Louis team that simply does not have the horses to compete. The Billikens rank 334th in the nation in points (64.7), 325th in field goal percentage (40.7) and 330th in three-point percentage (30.2). Rhode Island has an RPI of 21 compared to Saint Louis' 185 ranking. The Rams are 8-0 SU and 6-2 ATS as a favorite this season. Last year they won this game at Saint Louis by 34, and you can make a case the talent differential is even greater this time around. Rhode Island have dominated this series covering ten straight games against Saint Louis, including each of the last four by double figures. Nothing changes here with another strong win for the Rams over the Billikens.

3-Unit Play. #538 Take Alabama (-4.5) over South Carolina (7 p.m., Tuesday, January 9)

It was just last March that South Carolina was in the Final Four. But boy it seems like much longer than that. And while the Gamecocks are still 10-5 and nothing to groan at, they also aren't really anything to write home about. This team is just so blah to me, having graduated a ton of talent from the group that went on that special NCAAB Tournament run. They face a Crimson Tide team that really needs a win after a few very inconsistent weeks. Alabama beat a very good Texas A&M team by 22 to open SEC play but then went on to lose a one-point game at Vanderbilt and then get blown out at Georgia this past weekend. 'Bama has beaten some good teams on their home floor, and here they come through with a strong victory to even up their league record.

7-Unit Play. #548 Take Nebraska (-1.5) over Wisconsin (8:30 p.m., Tuesday, January 9)

The Cornhuskers are 11-6 to this point, already near last season's win total of 12. This is a pretty modest number considering how poor Wisconsin has played. Of Nebraska's six losses, five are to RPI Top 50, the other to UCF's 59th RPI ranking on a neutral court. The home Cornhuskers come in having covered six straight games and have payback for last year's lone match-up with the Badgers when they lost by a single point in overtime when Wisconsin was ranked No. 7 in the country. That Top Ten ranking is a far cry from the type of ball Wisconsin is playing this season. Wisconsin is 1-7 this season aginst the RPI Top 100. Nebraska's RPI is 77 and will continue the Badgers struggles tonight. Wisconsin is 1-6 away from Madison this year and scoring a miserable 54 points in their true road games. This Badgers team has just five players averaging more than 20 minutes per game. This is a very thin team with absolutely no depth after a few injuries forced two rotation players to miss the rest of the season. Nebraska is putting up 81 points at home, and the Cornhuskers are 8-1 on their home floor, their lone loss being a one-point result to Kansas. Back at home Nebraska keep up their winning ways with a 13-point victory over Wisconsin.

2-Unit Play. Take #510 St. John's (-6.5) over Georgetown (6:30 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
The Red Storm flopped over the weekend, getting blown out at home by DePaul. They've now lost four straight games and a once-promising season is going down the drain. I really think that this is their last stand if they are going to turn this around and I expect a solid effort here. Georgetown lost by 24 at home and they have lost three of their last four games as well. This team didn't play a tough nonconference schedule and it is kind of coming back to bite them. St. John's needs this one worse.


2-Unit Play. Take #513 Tulane (+3.5) over Memphis (7 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
I just don't know that Memphis should be favored over anyone. These guys have been pretty much a mess this year and they just don't have a lot of talent to work with. This is a major rebuilding year for Tubby Smith and he's just trying to make it through. Memphis is coming off a win, but they are just 1-4 ATS in their last five games. Tulane, on the other hand, is on the up and up. Mike Dunleavy is further along with his rebuild and the Green Wave are off a nice upset of SMU. They have also won at Temple and right now I think that the better team is getting points in this spot

.
2-Unit Play. Take #520 Eastern Michigan (-4.5) over Central Michigan (7 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
These are two high-offense, no-defense teams. That generally leads to some wild games between these two. Their last meeting was a 109-81 Eastern Michigan win, for example. But the Eagles have really dominated this series over the last few years. They are 7-3 SU and 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Central Michigan isn't the same team on the road and after back-to-back losses I think that Eastern Michigan is desperate right now. They should win in a shootout.


3-Unit Play. Take #530 Oklahoma (-2) over Texas Tech (7 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Big game in the Big 12. I'm rolling with the Sooners. I know Texas Tech won at Kansas. But that was one game. And their body of work over the last few years has shown me that they are not to be trusted on the road. And that game at Kansas was actually their only road game of the season. The Red Raiders are coming off their best hoops week in a long, long time. But sustaining that success is going to be difficult. Oklahoma is coming off a loss and they won't be messing around. This young team has been outstanding at home and I think they are going to appreciate going back to a bit of the underdog role (they are the lower-ranked team, of a loss, facing a higher ranked team with momentum so despite the spread the Sooners, mentally, can still play the underdog card) and now Texas Tech is the team with the target on its back. Ride the home team.

1-Unit Play. Take #542 Bradley (-6) over Southern Illinois (8 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)

5-Unit Play. Take #546 Virginia (-9) over Syracuse (8 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)

2-Unit Play. FIRST HALF: Take #546 Virginia (-4.5) over Syracuse (8 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Syracuse is starting to get exposed. This is not a good basketball team. They lost to a bad Wake Forest team on the road last week and that would've been a double-digit loss if Wake hadn't been a disaster down the stretch. Then the Orange lost at home to a Notre Dame team that was playing without its two best players. SU is a horrible offensive team and I will be absolutely stunned if they score more than 50 points tonight against perhaps the best defensive team in the country. Virginia has lost to SU in the last two meetings and they will want to get some revenge. The Cavs have won six straight gams and all but one of them was by double digits. Again, I just don't see how SU is going to score in this game. And UVA has blown out a lot better teams than the Orange.
2-Unit Play. Take #548 Nebraska (-1.5) over Wisconsin (8:30 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Wisconsin is awful. They are a bad basketball team and no bet against them is a bad bet at the moment. They have lost their last two road games, at Rutgers and Temple, and they were lucky to win at Penn State back on Dec. 4. This team can't play on the road. The Badgers simply don't have enough good guard play to be trusted. So while I don't really like Nebraska this year I will admit that they have been playing beyond expectations and that they have been tough at home.


3-Unit Play. Take #550 Creighton (-7) over Butler (8:30 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
God damn Creighton. Naturally they puke on themselves last week when I release a big play on them at home. Then, after they flop they go on the road and play their best game of their season on the road on Saturday. Good grief. I expect them to play better at home this time around. And I don't think that Butler is going to hold up in a very difficult road venue. The Bulldogs are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games and, frankly, other than Kamar Baldwin there is not a lot about this team to like. They've played several emotional games in a row - OT at Georgetown, beating Villanova, at Xavier, home against Seton Hall - and this could be a flat spot.


3-Unit Play. Take #551 Purdue (-1.5) over Michigan (9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Michigan is tough. They are a system team and they have settled into that system very well. But Purdue is legit. They are one of the two best teams in the Big Ten and they have the talent, experience, and size to hammer the Wolverines. Michigan has a nice looking record. However, who have they played? They've lost to any decent, tournament-caliber team that they've taken on this year. Their lone good wins were in OT over UCLA and a road win at Texas when the Longhorns were without one of their best players. Purdue has won a lot of games in a lot of places this year and right now they are dominating people. This should be a great game. But at the end of the day I'll with talent and experience over home court.


3-Unit Play. Take #553 Seton Hall (Pk) over Marquette (9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Marquette is all over the map. You never really know what you are going to get from this team. But one thing has been consistent: they are yet to beat a team that is better than they are. The Golden Eagles haven't upset anyone and I don't see them beating the Pirates. I am a big fan of this Seton hall team. And even though they haven't fully hit their stride yet this team has the talent, experience, and toughness to be a potential Final Four squad. Marquette doesn't defend and I don't think that they have the athleticism to matchup with the Pirates. I know it would be very difficult for Seton Hall to pull a road sweep with wins at Butler and Marquette. But I also think that Seton Hall is the much better team in this one and this line is short.


2-Unit Play. Take #557 Tennessee (-2) over Vanderbilt (9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)
Both of these teams are a mess right now. Vanderbilt is 4-8 in its last 12 games and their program is in the midst of a rebuild. Tennessee has lost two of three but that one win was a blowout home victory over Kentucky, putting them in a prime letdown spot here on the road. It's really tough to gauge which one of these teams is going to show up and play tonight. But I will go with the Vols. They have shown a lot of mental toughness. And a team that is good enough to beat Purdue and Kentucky and almost beat UNC and win at Arkansas is good enough to give another gut shot to this bad Vandy squad.


1-Unit Play. Take #556 Kansas (-15.5) over Iowa State (9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)

1-Unit Play. Take #559 Mississippi (+10) over Auburn (9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)

2-Unit Play. Take #561 Boise State (+4) over Fresno State (10 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 9)

Yes, I know that Fresno can be a tough place to play. But I just don't thin
1-Unit Play. Take 'Under' 147.5 Baylor at West Virginia (7 p.m., Tuesday Jan. 9)

4 Unit Play. Take #546 Over 113 in Syracuse @ Virginia (8p.m., Tuesday January 9 ACC Network) Do not see this low of a total much in college basketball anymore. It is with reason, but I believe this will be a competitive game with some fouling at the end to propel this total. Syracuse has gone over the posted total in 22 of their last 29 road games (1 push). The last 5 head to head meetings have gone over the posted total three times (1 push).


4 Unit Play. Take #547 Wisconsin +1.5 over Nebraska (8:30p.m., Tuesday January 9 Big 10 Network) We will follow the line movement in this game. Wisconsin did not get anything from Ethan Happ on Friday and thus they suffered a loss at Rutgers. They will need more from him tonight, but it should be easier to face Nebraska, as they do not pressure the ball like Rutgers does. Tim Miles is all but fired come March and I just do not believe Nebraska will have much success in the Big 10. Wisconsin is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games played on Tuesday.


4 Unit Play. Take #561 Boise State +4 over Fresno State (11p.m., Tuesday January 9 ESPN U) I just believe Boise State is the second-best team in the MWC this season. The Broncos are coming off a bad loss against Wyoming in which they blew a double-digit lead in that game to lose by one point. Fresno State is always a tough out at home, but they lost a lot of firepower from last year. Boise State already has a win at UNLV and they do not have a bad loss this season. The Bulldogs have yet to earn a quality win on the season and they are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games. The Broncos are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall.

**TORONTO (-4) over Miami

Rotation #502 – 4:35 pm Pacific

The market has overreacted to Kyle Lowry likely not playing in this game, as Lowry really doesn’t move the needle for the Raptors when he’s in or out of the game. Last season Lowry missed 23 games and Toronto’s average game rating in those 23 games was +2.9 points, which was only 0.8 points lower than their average game rating of +3.7 points in the games that Lowry played in. This season I don’t think there will be any negative affect to the Raptors with Lowry out given how well Van Fleet and Wright have played. The Raptors have a plus-minus of +7.6 points per 48 minutes when Lowry is in the game and a PM per 48 of +8.3 when he’s on the bench. Part of that is because DeMar DeRozan plays better when Lowry is not dominating the ball. This was the case last season as well but this season the difference in DeRozan’s play when Lowry is on the bench is much more significant. Toronto has outscored opponents by 7.2 points per 48 minutes when DeRozan and Lowry are on the court together this season but DeRozan is +18.6 points per 48 minutes (+78 in 201.6 minutes) when he’s playing without Lowry. Obviously, there is some variance in that fairly small sample size but there is more than enough evidence to suggest that Toronto is no worse without Lowry and my ratings favor the Raptors by 8 ½ points in this game against Miami’s current rotation with James Johnson back (a positive) and Bam Adebayo getting fewer minutes (also a positive). I’ll take Toronto in a 2-Star Best Bet at -5 points or less.

7-Unit Play. #513. Take Tulane +3.5 over Memphis (Tuesday @ 7pm est)


If you want, you can wait on this line because the public will just keep hammering Memphis but we like the underdog here on the road. Take a moment and save money and sign up for the entire season as we go for 13 straight winners today for +$7500 and move for a season total of +$8200. We love working hard for you both in College Basketball and the NBA as our clients so please take a moment and save money and sign up for the entire season. Per this selection, we like Tulane and have liked them for some time because have mentioned them on our free pick video and it has been our free pick several times as well. Tulane is a team that could win this game outright and is coached by Mike Dunleavy - the same coach who used to coach the LA Clippers mind you. Ex-NBA Coaches that move to College have had success including Lon Kruger who coaches Oklahoma now who is an elite team and he used to coach the Atlanta Hawks, Dunleavy is afraid of no one and especially not anyone in this conference. He instills that no fear attitude with his own players as well. Tulane won 6 games last year and this year they are on their revenge tour. They are already 11-4 to start the year after winning just 6 games last year, top 120 in defense, top 100 in 3 point shooting, beat top 35 SMU at home by 3 points, beat Temple on the road by 10 points and they face a Memphis team who is outside the top 200 in turnover margin and outside the top 250 in effective field goal percentage. Plus, Tulane lost both times to Memphis last year and has been looking forward to this game in a big way. Tulane comes out very motivated today and we roll with them.
