NC CENTRAL @ NC A&T | 2/17 | 7:00 PM EST
9:08 AM
North Carolina Central has taken a defensive approach when the game is rated close to a tossup. The Eagles have allowed a shooting percentage of 41.7 when the line is within three points of a pick'em and 46.6 percent when they are getting more than three points. As a result, they are 0-6 O/U when the line is within three points of a pick'em, staying Under by an average of 9.6 ppg. North Carolina A&T is 0-9 O/U as a favorite off a loss, staying Under by an average of 15.22 ppg. We make the play the Under.

3-0 IN LAST 3 CBB O/U PICKS | +300
NOTRE DAME -3.5
N. CAROLINA @ NOTRE DAME | 2/17 | 7:00 PM EST
9:05 AM
North Carolina is averaging 71 ppg this season and only 55 percent of its baskets have been assisted. Notre Dame has matched up well against similar opponents, as it is 11-0 ATS vs a team that has averaged fewer than 15 assists and fewer than e80 points per game season-to-date. In their last game, the Tar Heels committed 13 turnovers while attempting 50 shots. This is a shot-per-turnover ratio of 3.85, significantly below their season-to-date average of 4.85. North Carolina is 0-9 ATS off a game in which its shot-per-turnover ratio was less than 4.00. Lay the short number.

BETHUNE-COOK. @ DELAWARE ST. | 2/17 | 7:30 PM EST
YESTERDAY 8:46 PM
I'm projecting 153 points for this matchup, giving us solid value on the Under. The Under is cashing in over 70 percent of my simulations.

15-7 IN LAST 22 CBB PICKS | +706
NOTRE DAME -4
N. CAROLINA @ NOTRE DAME | 2/17 | 7:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 8:43 PM
Look for host Notre Dame to bounce back strong from its blowout loss at Duke. The Tar Heels are in a 5-15 spiral, including five straight losses. This is a must-win desperation spot for the Fighting Irish, who are 15-10 and trying to get to the postseason. Notre Dame is covering in nearly 70 percent of my simulations. Lay the points.

15-7 IN LAST 22 CBB PICKS | +706
FLORIDA -105
FLORIDA @ SAN JOSE | 2/17 | 4:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 8:39 PM
The Panthers have won the past three meetings and five of the last six. San Jose hasn't won a home game since Jan. 27. Although the Sharks enter on a two-game win streak, they'll be short-handed without two key players. I have Florida winning over 60 percent of simulations.

TAMPA BAY -115
TAMPA BAY @ COLORADO | 2/17 | 9:00 PM EST
9:11 AM
There is no hotter team in the NHL than the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are riding a 10-game winning streak and are 22-2-1 their last 25 games overall. The Lightning lost their last meeting vs. Colorado, but had won five straight in this series, including four straight in Colorado. Lightning G Andrei Vasilevskiy has the most wins in the NHL with 32 and is 19-0-2 in his last 21 starts. He hasn't lost in regulation in over two months.

WASHINGTON @ VEGAS | 2/17 | 6:00 PM EST
9:10 AM
The Capitals own the best road record in the NHL, posting a 21-7-1 mark and they have won six of the last seven meetings against the Golden Knights. Alex Ovechkin is looking to become just the eighth member of the 700-goal club, and has feasted on Knights goalie Marc-Andre Fleury. The Capitals are 9-2 their last 11 games as road underdogs, while the Knights are just 3-10 their last 13 Monday games.

ALLEN EASTMAN CBB

7-Unit Play.* Take 'Over' 147.5 North Carolina at Notre Dame (7 p.m., Monday, Feb. 17)

I expect a high-scoring game here in South Bend. North Carolina has gotten better since freshman Cole Anthony has come back from his injury. They've gone 'over' in two of their last three games and I think that they will have a big game tonight. Notre Dame has gone 'over' in seven of its last nine games and the 'over' is 4-0 in its last four home games. Notre Dame is coming off a tough week. They played three straight road games and only averaged 57 points per game. The Irish have only shot 34 percent in their last two games. This is a very strong shooting team and I expect them to be much better now that they are shooting in their own arena. North Carolina has averaged 79 points per game in their last nine games against the Irish and I think that they will score around 80 points in this one as well. I think that this game will be played at a fast pace and will be a high-scoring. I expect a close game and I think that this one will go way 'over' the total.

7-Unit Play. #863. Take Over 147.5 North Carolina vs. Notre Dame (Monday @ 7pm* est)
Great 2-0 Weekend in College Basketball and 8-1 Run in College Ball for +2300. We are also on a 5-0 NBA Run and +6500 in the NBA for the Season as we are on a 12-2 Basketball Run for +4000 which is fantastic and went 3-0 this weekend in the XFL. Oh, and 7-1 in Soccer Plays and 8-1 Daily Free Pick Run as well, just remarkable. Take a moment, save money, and sign up for the Entire Season in All Sports especially as we head into the MLB/WNBA Season where we have won 3 straight years and won in the MLB/WNBA nicely last year. We roll with the Over today as it is a nice spot to take the Over as you have a UNC team that is 10-15 but who is playing with great passion and who has just lost the last few games by around a bucket. This team lost once again but the wild thing is with Cole Anthony back and Garrison Brooks, this team always has a shot and they get a role player back today who averages 13 points per game. UNC will make some noise before the season is done make no mistake about it - remember how far they took Duke and it took a Duke miracle to win that game. UNC will likely bust out big time here offensively as they put up 76 points in the home opener against Notre Dame and are even more motivated according to all press clippings about getting back on track this game. This is a team just lost by 2 points to Virginia and put up 62 points against them and now they get to face a more porous Notre Dame defense and I think they put up a strong number on the road here and I also think Notre Dame will get back on track after back to back tough losses against Virginia losing in overtime by a bucket and getting routed by Duke. Highly motivated Notre Dame team here as well and I this game could be a track meet that sees this game go Over.

4-Unit Play #863 North* Carolina +3.5 over Notre Dame (Monday, February 17 at 07:00 PM ET)
Take North Carolina ATS as my top collegsze basketball pick for Monday night. This pick falls into one of my top college basketball systems and the Tar Heels are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as an underdog. North Carolina is also 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games as an underdog and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games when playing a team that has a winning record. Notre Dame is just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games after a loss by more than 20 points and they shot just 32.8% against Virginia and then 36.5% against Duke in their last 2 games. North Carolina shot 50% against that same Virginia team in their last game in a close two-point loss and they also lost to Duke by just 2 points shooting 52.2% against them. Play North Carolina ATS and I would not be shocked if they won a right here tonight.

5 Unit Play.**Take #861 Xavier -2 over St Johns (6:30p.m., Monday, February 17 FS1)*The Musketeers need to complete the season sweep of the Red Storm to stay on the NCAA Tournament bubble. They already beat them once this season by 8 points and now St. Johns is without Mustapha Heron. The favorite is 3-1 ATS (1 push) in the last 5 meetings between Xavier and St Johns. Xavier is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games.

Play Rating: 3%
Play: St. John\'s 2.0 (-110)

View Analysis

3% Take St John’s (#862)
Xavier has a grand total of three road wins all season, not a team that has shown any dominant tendencies on the highway. They’ve got all the pressure on them down the stretch in February, a ‘bubble’ team because they haven’t been good enough to put themselves squarely in the Big Dance mix. Put those two factors together and we can expect Xavier to struggle tonight against St John’s at Madison Square Garden.
Sure, the Musketeers are much bigger than the Red Storm – they’re likely to win the rebounding battle tonight. But the Johnnies full court pressure gave Xavier fits in the first meeting between these two teams in Cincinnati; a game where the Musketeers committed 19 turnovers. St John’s shot an uncharacteristic 1-16 from three point range in that game while missing eleven free throws. They still covered the closing pointspread!
We can expect better perimeter shooting from the Red Storm tonight, even without injured star senior Mustapha Heron. They just won their first game without him in the lineup, beating Providence by double digits. Xavier head coach Travis Steele: “They don’t look a lot different (without Heron). They just kind of throw another guy in and do their deal.” I’m expecting the Johnnies to win their second straight without Heron on the floor tonight. Take St John’s.
Line Parameter: 3% at+1 or higher 2% at pk or if St John’s goes off the favorite

View Analysis

(866) 3% IOWA ST/KANSAS UNDER 140.5
Knee jerk reaction here is to look and see that Kansas is a big favorite so immediately one would expect a lot of scoring to cover that big number. Then you look and see Kansas scored 87 points on Saturday and Iowa St scored 81 so this should soar over the 140.5 total right? Wrong Kansas played Oklahoma on Saturday an up tempo team right after they played WVU which is a slow paced team with a great defense. So yes Kansas was going to score a lot of points on Saturday. Even though Iowa St scored 81 points on Saturday they are not a fast paced team. They also shot an insane 57% from the field on Saturday and 40% from 3 point range. Iowa St will not put up those kind of numbers today. Kansas will want to take the air out of the ball in the second half saving energy for their big showdown with Baylor in 5 days. KANSAS is 28-13 UNDER after playing a home game over the last 3 seasons. KANSAS is also 17-8 UNDER in all lined games this season. My numbers have 135 or less total points being scored here here. TAKE IOWA ST/KANSAS UNDER 140.5 as my 3% Big Monday Total Domination Play.

A&T comes into this HUGE MEAC showdown (on ESPN!!!) not looking like the team they'd hoped coming down the stretch...losers of 2 in a row and now hosting NCC, on a win streak of the entire month and with all the momentum.
Jay Joyner's boys run...and this is not a question...top 15 in the country period on the whole...but whatever "fast" is...however you perceive "fast" in college hoops...the Aggies have redefined that term inside league play this season...going north of 80 possessions per 40 minutes and a 14 second possession clock...they don't turn it over...they get their asses.to the line early and often...and this is a rivalry game! 133 or 134 points is a mistake number to open this at...and it will rise...
National TV...stakes enormous...both teams want to impress in the rare.spot they get to show all of US what they have in conferences like the MEAC...
Big shots, big plays, big moments...and a game that doesn't stick in the 60s...especially not the victor
