BAYLOR -6.5
BAYLOR @ OKLAHOMA ST. | 1/18 | 12:00 PM EST
12:05 AM
Spotting a home team this many points in conference play is risky, but less so with this matchup. Baylor has held opponents to under 60 points in eight of the last nine outings. Oklahoma State scored 41, 41 and 40 in its three games prior to the latest one, in which the Cowboys exploded for 64. The only danger here is the Bears taking the Cowboys lightly, but a 13-game win streak suggests they take no foe for granted. Take Baylor.

ARIZONA -6
COLORADO @ ARIZONA | 1/18 | 2:30 PM EST
12:03 AM
Nice win by Colorado, a notoriously weak road team, at Arizona State on Thursday night. The Buffaloes had to travel, albeit a short distance, to another away game for a quick turnaround for a lunch-hour tip-off in Tucson. 'Zona is a scoring machine at home, averaging 87.3 points a game and going 9-1 straight-up. The Buffs have not gotten within seven points of the Wildcats in this building. The Cats cover.

PURDUE @ MARYLAND | 1/18 | 2:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 11:59 PM
The number is large given the low total (125), but the elephant in the room is Purdue’s 1-4 straight-up road record and Maryland’s 10-0 mark at home. The Terrapins’ average margin for the last three in their comfortable confines is 14 points. Home teams are rolling in the Big Ten, and the disparity in road/home records with these teams is too stark to ignore. I'm on Maryland.

5% W. KENTUCKY -6
Two hot teams meet up here in Conference USA action. Charlotte is in 1st place in the Conference at 4-0 while W. Kentucky is in a 4 way tie for 2nd place with a 4-1 record. So when you first look at this game you are going to want to grab the 1st place dog Charlotte but that would be a mistake as Charlotte is no where near as good as their record might indicate. Charlotte is counterfeit as they have played one of the easiet schedules in the country. Charlotte's schedule is the #332 ranked schedule. That's 332 out of 353 teams. Only 21 teams have played a softer schedule this year. W. Kentucky has played the #176 toughest schedule. W. Kentucky won but failed to cover it's last game. My feeling is that W. Kentucky got caught looking ahead to this first place showdown. I love taking a good team following a scare in their last game because you can always count on getting their best effort in this one. My numbers have W. Kentucky winning by 11-13 points as my 5% COLLEGE GAME OF THE MONTH

SETON HALL @ ST. JOHN'S | 1/18 | 12:00 PM EST
9:22 AM
Seton Hall comes into this game having won seven straight, and there's a very good chance that streak extends to eight. Still, it's the second-straight road game for the Pirates against a team that's been good at home, and I like the Storm to stay within range during an early start.

The way this college basketball season is going you could have made a lot of money by simply betting against any team that has suddenly become The It Team. Right now, that's Baylor, so, on a Saturday, I'm betting against Baylor. Oklahoma State's at home, and it is a good defensive team. It will keep the Bears within range.

MIAMI (FLA.) +6
FLORIDA ST. @ MIAMI (FLA.) | 1/18 | 1:00 PM EST
9:16 AM
I am an Illinois fan, and earlier this season Miami came to Champaign and I watched as 5-foot-7 Chris Lykes lit the Illini up and thought to myself "this is the greatest basketball player I've ever seen." Well, he's not, and Miami has plenty of flaws (what is defense, anyway?), but I like the Canes in this spot at home against the Noles.

FLORIDA -2
AUBURN @ FLORIDA | 1/18 | 1:30 PM EST
9:11 AM
I took Alabama against Auburn earlier this week because I said Auburn wasn't as good as its undefeated record suggested. I said you shouldn't be surprised if Alabama won outright. Well, Alabama won, and now Auburn is playing its second straight road game against a Florida team that is better than Alabama. I like the Gators for many of the same reasons I liked the Tide.

KANSAS ST. +5.5
W. VIRGINIA @ KANSAS ST. | 1/18 | 2:00 PM EST
9:09 AM
Well, we are certainly buying low here, aren't we? Kansas State enters this game having lost four straight and nine of its last 12 after a 4-0 start to the season. Now they're facing the best defense in the country according to KenPom, but that poor play of late, as well as that No. 12 next to West Virginia's name has led to this spread being a little too large.

TEXAS +7
KANSAS @ TEXAS | 1/18 | 2:00 PM EST
9:06 AM
Kansas is the better team here by a lot, but this will be a tricky matchup for the Jayhawks. The one thing Texas' defense does really well is pressure you and force turnovers. Well, Kansas has struggled with turnovers on the offensive end all season long. That and free throws are its two biggest weak spots. Two things which can sometimes loom large on the road.

ARIZONA -6
COLORADO @ ARIZONA | 1/18 | 2:30 PM EST
9:03 AM
Any time I see a ranked team on the road in a conference game that's as large a dog as the Buffs are here, my ears perk up. There's good reason for it this time, as Arizona is a better team than Colorado, and at home I like the young, talented Wildcats.

OREGON @ WASHINGTON | 1/18 | 3:45 PM EST
8:59 AM
There's value on this line. Oregon has been fantastic at home this season, going 10-0. On the road or at neutral sites, however, the Ducks are 3-4. On the road here, against a rival in Washington, I like a strong defensive team like the Huskies.

ARKANSAS -1.5
KENTUCKY @ ARKANSAS | 1/18 | 4:00 PM EST
8:54 AM
I can't say I don't have any concerns about this play, but I believe that Arkansas is slightly undervalued in this spot. I'd have the line closer to three points, so if I can find Arkansas at -1.5, it's hard to pass that up.

PROVIDENCE @ CREIGHTON | 1/18 | 4:30 PM EST
8:51 AM
Yes, hi, it's me, the guy who just isn't all that impressed by what he sees when he watches Creighton. It's a team that doesn't defend or rebound well, and those teams are always difficult to trust against the spread against teams that do defend, and have a significant size advantage. Creighton should win this game, but this spread is too large for this matchup.

GEORGIA TECH -107
VIRGINIA @ GEORGIA TECH | 1/18 | 8:00 PM EST
8:47 AM
Virginia comes into this game on a three-game losing streak and I'm expecting the skid to reach four straight. These are two teams with defenses that are far more advanced than their offenses, but there's not much value on the total. Instead I'll take the offense that's at home.

24-18-1 IN LAST 43 CBB PICKS | +402
PENN ST. +1.5
OHIO ST. @ PENN ST. | 1/18 | 12:00 PM EST
8:43 AM
Ohio State has been one of the more confusing teams in the country this season. It's ranked No. 12 overall by KenPom, yet it's only 2-4 in conference play. Given how similar these teams are, Penn State's size, and the way home teams have performed in the Big Ten this year, Penn State is the smarter play.

Rotation #855
NC State -7 over Clemson
Clemson started off the New Year with a win against this same NC State team in their building and then beat UNC which has owned them in ACC play. This team then beat Duke. NC State is a team that will push the pace in their home building and a team that will put up a lot of points. Clemson got out to a red hot start in the first half of the game they played last week and shot a percentage from the floor and the foul line which was way above their season averages. I believe they will come back down to life today and it will be themselves on the wrong end of a quick Wolfpack start at home. Take NC State.

Rotation #653-654
TCU/Oklahoma Over 134
TCU has not played in many road games. In the last one they were blown out by West Virginia. This is a Horned Frogs team that can knock down a lot three pointers. Oklahoma is out of control at times and can give up the three ball so this is a perfect spot for TCU on offense. Oklahoma can use their size to take advantage of a TCU team not playing the best defense right now. Oklahoma also has a lot of players on their roster that can cash in from the three point line as well. This should be a high scoring game. Take the Over.
College Basketball
3:00 PM EST
Rotation #679
Rice +1 over Southern Miss
Southern Miss returns just one starter from last year while the Rice Owls return a good majority of their players from last year. Jay Ladner is going to need time to get this Southern Miss team on the same page. Rice has been scoring the basketball much better and has a lot of senior leadership. This is a Southern Miss Offense that just can’t score. Look for the veteran leadership for the Owls to propel them to a road victory against a team struggling in Conference USA play. Take Rice.

Rotation #763
Louisville +7.5 over Duke
Chris Mack learned a valuable lesson the hard way last year and that is to finish. Louisville was up 23 at home to the Blue Devils and feel asleep only to look at and to be losers by blowing one of the biggest leads ever with just 10 minutes of basketball remaining. This Cardinals team will be focused to return the favor in Cameron Indoor Stadium where we have seen Duke look human for the first time in a long time. This is a very experienced Cardinals basketball team that is getting a generous amount of points for being a top level program. I don’t think this year’s Duke Freshman class is as good as last year’s. Take Louisville.

Saturday card has a powerful Hoops card led by the ACC Game of the Year, SEC Play of the Month, an Executive Level TIER Exclusive play and a PERFECT System NBA Play. Comp Play Below.

The NBA Comp Play is on Utah at 9:05 eastern. The Jazz are home for Sacramento after getting losing on the road in a game where they allowed 138 points. The Jazz are 6-1 to the spread at home after a game where they allowed 120 or more. Sacramento have failed to cover 5 of 6 on the road off a game where they allowed 120 or more at home. To tie in a nice league wide system we note that rested home favorites of 5 or more with a 210+ total that scored and allowed 120 or more like Utah have covered 85% since 1995 vs an opponent that was a home dog in their last game. Look for the Jazz to cover. On Saturday a huge hoops card is up and led by an Executive Level TIER 1 NCAAB Play at night, an Early ACC Game of the Year, SEC Play of the Month and a Perfect system NBA Side.

PURDUE @ MARYLAND | 1/18 | 2:00 PM EST
12:02 PM
It's been nearly a full week since Purdue stomped Michigan State at home, and most of the public seems to believe the Boilermakers are in a natural letdown spot Saturday against Maryland. Although undefeated at home, the Terrapins are flawed and the program is showing an alarming trend of peaking early in the season before fading late. They outplayed Wisconsin most of the way only to come up short. The clearly superior team is getting a decent handful of points here.

Robert Ferringo cbb

2-Unit Play. Take #603 Seton Hall (-4.5) over St. John's (Noon)
I'm going to keep riding Seton Hall. They are the best team in the Big East and coming off a nice win at Butler. They've won seven straight games overall and I think they will take down their rivals here. St. John's has been playing over its head all season long and they will come down to reality sooner rather than later.
3-Unit Play. Take #608 Pittsburgh (-3) over North Carolina (Noon)
Things have been going terribly wrong for North Carolina. It's only going to get worse on the road. They haven't played a true road game in a month. And after three straight dispiriting home losses I don't expect more effort outside of Chapel Hill. Roy Williams is right: this is just a bad basketball team.
3-Unit Play. Take #613 Illinois-Chicago (-2) over IUPUI (Noon)
UI-C is better than its record suggests. This team wasn't healthy during the nonconference. But now that they have their seniors back in the fold this team is going to be a tough out. They proved that with their win over Wright State last weekend. IUPUI is a mess right now and is just a really bad team. The Flames should hold it together enough to pick up a road win.
3-Unit Play. Take #616 Villanova (-9.5) over Connecticut (Noon)
Connecticut is a try-hard team. But they don't have enough shooters and their guards are underwhelming. Losing Tyler Polley was a huge blow because he was by far the team's best shooter. They simply don't have the firepower to hang around in a game like this. And if they can lose by double-digits at Cincinnati and at South Florida they can definitely lose by double-digits at Villanova.
2-Unit Play. Take #626 DePaul (+4) over Butler (1 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
I think that this is a letdown spot for Butler. They are coming off a huge game against Seton Hall that they lost, and now they have to go on the road with a giant target on their backs. DePaul has lost four straight games. But they have played really well against a brutal schedule and they are due for a marquee win. I think they get it here.

2-Unit Play. Take #634 Florida (-2) over Auburn (1:30 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
Auburn is coming back to reality a bit after their hot start. They are coming off an emotional game against rival Alabama and now have to go back on the road to another tough SEC venue. Florida has been overrated all season long. But they are still a decent team and they are always tough in their own gym.
2-Unit Play. Take #635 Dartmouth (+12) over Harvard (2 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
Neither team has played in a couple weeks so it is tough to know what they are going to bring to the table in this one. But Harvard has been a disappointment for most of this season and they have struggled against big numbers like this. I think the Crimson will win, but they won't be able to run it up here against a feisty Dartmouth team.
2-Unit Play. Take #638 North Carolina State (-6.5) over Clemson (2 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
This is a major letdown spot for the Tigers. They are not a good team and they played out of this world against Duke. They are going to come crashing back to reality here.
4-Unit Play. Take #651 West Virginia (-5.5) over Kansas State (2 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
I had this number closer to 8.5. Kansas State does have a nice home court edge. But they just aren't very good. WVU has been in no-screwing-around mode all season long and Huggy Bear won't let them have a mental lapse here. West Virginia has been good away from home this year and I think that they will roll in the second half of this game.
2-Unit Play. Take #654 Oklahoma (-3) over TCU (2 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)

I'm going to keep going against TCU. I think that this team is overrated. They have played a joke of a schedule. And after getting slapped around in Morgantown they have to make a tough trek out to Norman to finish up their road trip this week. The Sooners have lost two straight so they will be focused for this game. And I think that OU is the better team in this one.
7-Unit Play. Take #670 VCU (-9) over St. Bonaventure (2 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
VCU should be able to bounce back here after their blowout loss at Dayton. That game was closer than the final score suggests. VCU has been absolutely terrible ATS this year. But they are due for a maiming. The Bonnies have won four straight and 11 of 12. However, those wins have come against a bunch of nobodies. This is a really young team - they start five sophomores and have two freshmen off the bench - and I think VCU will take advantage.
3-Unit Play. Take #673 Richmond (-2) over George Mason (2:30 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
This is a really good, experienced Richmond team going up against a young, erratic George Mason group. I think the Patriots have actually overachieved this season. However, they have lost four of their last five games and haven't looked good in the process. Richmond is experienced and methodical and I think that they are legit. They will get this win.
4-Unit Play. Take #691 Oregon (-2) over Washington (3:45 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
Washington is dealing with some serious personnel issues. Quade Green is out and Jaden McDaniels didn't play earlier this week because of an ankle issue. That's two starters for a team that doesn't use its bench at all. Washington has lost four of six and they are pointed in the wrong direction. I think that Oregon is going to bounce back after their dud at Washington State. This team is too good to lose two in a row to inferior opponents.
2-Unit Play. Take #695 Northern Arizona (+10.5) over Northern Colorado (4 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
1-Unit Play. Take #700 South Alabama (-1) over Georgia Southern (4 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
South Alabama laid an egg against Georgia State on Thursday. However, I don't see them losing to both State and Southern - at home - in the same weekend.
3-Unit Play. Take #714 Wichita State (-4) over Houston (4 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)

This line seems way off. Wichita State has been fantastic at home. And Houston, for as talented as they are, hasn't exactly been a world beater on the road. Betting on Wichita State in their home gym is never a bad idea and I think that they will get another W here.
1-Unit Play. Take #740 UT-Martin (+4.5) over Austin Peay (5 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
2-Unit Play. Take #757 Northern Iowa (+1) over Bradley (6 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
3-Unit Play. Take 'Under' 136.5 Northern Iowa at Bradley (6 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
Bradley is coming off a bizarre game against Missouri State. They were up 10 points at the half. Then they fell behind by 11 points midway through the second half. Then they outscored Missouri State 33-12 in the final 10 minutes to win by 13. They shot 17-for-30 from 3-point range in that game. They aren't going to do that nonsense again. This one will be played in the 50's and low 60's and Northern Iowa will grind out another W.

4-Unit Play. Take #766 USC (-2) over Stanford (6:30 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18)
Stanford is coming off a win over UCLA. But UCLA stinks. Now they are playing a real team and I think they will take one on the chin. Stanford is 15-2 and their numbers look real good. But they haven't played anyone. And they haven't done a single thing on the road this year. This is only their third road game of the season. And the first two came against San Jose State and UCLA. USC has beaten some good teams this year. They are more talented offensively and they have the home court edge. I'll go with the Trojans.

3 Unit Play. Take #643 Over 129.5 Ohio at Eastern Michigan (2:00p.m., Saturday January 18 ESPN3)
The Ohio Bobcats are averaging a little over 70ppg their last 6 games and the Bobcats have struggled dropping 4 out 5 games. EMU has also dropped 4-Straight and 6 out 7 so defense could be flown out the window and I see this total cashing this afternoon. Ohio is 4-1 O/U following a ATS win and the EMU is 7-1 O/U following a ATS loss.


4 Unit Play. Take #766 USC -2 over Stanford (6:30p.m., Saturday January 18 PAC-12)
A fantastic PAC-12 Conference matchup tonight at Galen Center and something will have to give tonight. The home team Trojans has won 9 out 10 and the Stanford Trees are 4-1 on the road. What will give tonight? USC two nights ago beat the Cal Bears 88-56 and the Trojans dominated the game from the start. Tonight I see this game being closed from the tip but late in the second half I see USC pulling away and winning by 4 points or more. The home team in this series is 5-1 ATS and again the Trojans squeaked out a home cover.

5 Unit Play. Take #819 Over 154 BYU at Gonzaga (10:00p.m., Saturday January 18 ESPN2)
Tonight at McCarthey Athletic Center the Gonzaga Bulldogs welcome the BYU Cougars. We will see tons of points being scored tonight in Washington and the Zags are coming off a 104-54 win at home against Santa Clara. BYU is red hot coming to Washington as the Cougars have won 8 out 9 and they have cashed 5 out 6 'Over' tickets. The Zags to win this game and I see this total flying 'Over'! BYU is 5-0 O/U as a road underdog and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are 11-2 O/U following a SU win. Let's also throw in that the Bulldogs are 16-5 O/U last 21 games and wouldn't shock me to see both teams hit the 80 mark.

VSI - NBA (won 9 in a row)

6 Unit Play. Take #559 Over 234.5 Los Angeles Lakers at Houston (8:35p.m., Saturday January 18)
Last night we cashed our 'Over' ticket with the Miami Heat/Oklahoma City Thunder game and tonight we see more fireworks hitting the scoreboard in Houston. The Lakers come to the Toyota Center cashing 4-Straight 'Over' games and King James has been dropping assists left and right. Houston has been struggling on offense as of late especially J. Harden but tonight both teams will be playing up-tempo games and this total flies 'Over'. The Lakers are 5-2 O/U as a road underdog and the Houston Rockets are 5-2 O/U following a double-digit loss at home. Let's also throw in that the last 13 meetings between these two teams 10 of them have gone 'Over'.

KENTUCKY +1.5
KENTUCKY @ ARKANSAS | 1/18 | 4:00 PM EST
1:08 PM
Kentucky frittered away a sizable second-half lead in a loss Wednesday to South Carolina by going soft on the boards. The tree-tall Wildcats should dominate in that area against Arkansas, which sometimes deploys an all-guard lineup. The Razorbacks boast the country’s lowest defensive three-point percentage, but Kentucky does not rely on the three so its offense should not be hampered. Take the Cats.

4% Take Florida (#634)

Auburn just lost their first game of the year, blown out in Tuscaloosa against the Crimson Tide earlier in the week. This is a team that has not truly been battle tested on the highway – their previous true road games came at South Alabama, where they never sniffed a pointspread cover and at struggling Mississippi State. I expect them to lose again in a hostile environment today.

Auburn is a ‘bet-on’ team against foes that are going to try to run with them. But when the Tigers face an opponent with strong guard play primed to slow the pace and avoid easy transition buckets – a team like Florida -- they’re in for trouble. Today’s competition is going to be much tougher for an Auburn squad that is, quite simply, an overvalued commodity in the betting markets right now after their unsustainably hot start to the season.

The Gators have lacked consistency this year, but they’re ‘bet-on’ all the way in a step-up game at home. This team got a real wake-up call last weekend in a blowout loss at Missouri; bouncing back strong with a double digit blowout over Ole Miss earlier in the week. They’ve shown plenty of ‘refuse to lose’ on this floor already this season; undefeated in Gainesville since a loss to Florida State back in October. Cheap price to lay…..Take Florida

Line is crazier than hell...I played the spread but because people I don't think are terrible at their jobs are oppo me here I will be "safer" and go with a pure W...but not only am I offended by the opening line considering the Ags are 5-1 last 6 ATS and USC is off a bank shot 3 point buzzer beater over Cal & Co. I have this right in the 65-55 range...and USC beat UVA as a big upset and then failed to cover the following game by 25 points!

Line is already shitting out on us...damnit

-6.5/-7 I would still play this at 5% with the -6 being a spread I'd rate even higher than 5%

-8 or more I would start easing off...and 4% is a better investment...but would still play 4% at -9



Adams ended up sitting last night in the front end of a B2B both at home...after being listed, then removed from the injury report...then downgraded...then OUT! Confusing as hell to play the NBA with this happening...but I leaned the Heat either way and would have played them HARD had we gotten a decent gambling chip from OKC info-wise.

Now we stand tonight with both these teams on no rest, finishing B2B tonight off losses...OKC at home and Portland in Dallas...where CJ left the game with an ankle and didn't return...Dame was sick...and the short bench gets shorter with Trent out as well.

Hard for me to think Adams isn't a go tonight...and maybe even close to 100% after sitting last night in what must be nothing very serious even listed as "knee".

Thunder are 6-0 ATS this season on no rest, will be at mostly full strength outside of Nader...assuming Adams goes, who is down there to wreak havoc on Whiteside while SGA and CP3 anf Schroder all go for 20+ each...with Gallo there to possibly be a 4th against a poor, fatigued, shorthanded Blazer defense more shorthanded on offense to keep up with an impressive OKC offense....also this is the final meeting and OKC needs to secure a season split...and the Thunder are in NO position to F around with ANY games...wide spread, home, or not...for this wildly right West playoff race.

Thunder win this by double digits going away similarly to the last meeting in December 108-96...or worse!
