Jeff Siegel's Gulfstream Analysis/Wagering Strategies - 12/9/20 December 9, 2020
Jeff Siegel’s Gulfstream Park Analysis & Wagering Strategies
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
*

Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s “Daily Analysis and Wagering Strategies” isolates those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6.
*
The selections are posted at 6:00 a.m. and updated later in the morning to reflect late scratches and changes. For additional commentary, follow us on twitter @jsiegelracing.
*
*
Grade Descriptions: Grade A=Highest degree of confidence; Grade B=Solid Play. Grade C=Least preferred or pass; Grade X=probable winner but likely at odds too short to play.


RACE 1: Post: 12:35 ET Grade: B
Use: 1-Awesome View; 6-Luisana Princess; 9-Lifechangingevent

Forecast: Lifechangingmoment exits a live maiden claiming off-the-turf sprint at this level at GPW and seems certain to improve on a surface she’s bred for while making her second career start for a barn that has very strong stats (21%, powerful ROI) with this angle. The daughter of Soldat is plenty quick, has two nice breezes since raced and offers value at 4-1 on the morning line. Rolling exotic player should also consider – at least as savers – Awesome View and Luisana Princess. The former has form over this course and distance that charts well with this group, while the latter drops to her lowest level ever and should be doing her best work from the quarter pole to the wire.
*
*
RACE 2: Post: 1:04 ET Grade: C+
Use: 3-Fast Fraction; 5-Too Much War

Forecast: Fast Fraction, in the frame in all four of her outings over the local main track, just defeated a slightly lesser field at GPW while competing for this bottom-rung price tag ($6,250) may deserve a very slight edge on top despite the restricted condition raise from nw-2 to nw-3. The daughter of Algorithms has good tactical speed that projects to produce a trouble-free, pace-stalking trip. Too Much War has never raced on dirt – all 12 of her prior outings have come on grass – but on pedigree there’s no reason she won’t handle the main track. The daughter of He’s Had Enough is a fit on figures and should be prominent throughout. We’ll try to get by using just these two in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 3: Post: 1:33 ET Grade: B-
Use: 5-Charliecando; 6-Geoscience

Forecast: Geoscience is relatively unexposed and therefore rates top billing in this lethargic maiden-claiming grass sprint for older horses. He’s only had three starts and has been forced to the sidelines after each start, so the son of Gemologist returns off a layoff yet again while showing up for a tag for the first time. He’s quick from the gates, is re-equipped with blinkers, hails from a high-percentage outfit, will be very tough to catch if he shows up with his best stuff. Charliecando already has had 13 chances, so he’s clearly not one to trust, but on his best form he charts as a contender. The Shanghai Bobby gelding has hit the board in five of six career outings on grass and projects to draft into a good second flight position. He can be included on a ticket or two as a back-up or a saver.
*
*
RACE 4: Post: 2:03 ET Grade: B
Use: 1-Orbs Baby Girl; 3-High Speed Stef

Forecast: Orbs Baby Girl has a couple of runs under her belt, a fourth place finish behind subsequent Maryland Million Lassie Stakes winner Miss Nondescript and then a distant third behind Malathaat, who came back to win both the Tempted S-G3. and the Demoiselle S.-G2 and currently ranks among the best juvenile fillies in training. ‘Girl returns off a two-month freshening for a capable outfit and seems well-spotted to graduate in what is a considerably easier group that what she’s seen so far. With L. Saez aboard and at 9/2 on the morning line she’s worth a play. You also have to include the fast-working first-timer High Speed Stef somewhere on your ticket. A $140,000 OBS March sale purchase, the daughter of Liam’s Map shows a couple of recent bullet gate drills to indicate she’s fit and ready, though it’s never easy to win first time out at this extended sprint distance of seven furlongs.
*
*
RACE 5: Post: 2:36 ET Grade: B-
Use: 2-All Inclusive; 3-Getthe Muny Bernie

Forecast: Getthe Muny Bernie shows up in a seller for the first time after a poor run over a sloppy track at GPW in late October. Against this group the son of Munnings appears to have found his friends. He’ll add blinkers for the first time (the S. Joseph, Jr. barn has superior stats with this angle), and with excellent form in three prior starts over this course and distance the lightly-raced 4-year-old gelding should be hard to beat at 5/2 on the morning line. All Inclusive is a Woodbine invader with figures that fit and like our top pick will be making his first career start on grass. He’s the quicker of the two main contenders, so if he can shake loose early without pressure the Canadian-bred gelding may be hard to catch. Both should be included in rolling exotic play; we’ll give Getthe Muny Bernie a slight edge on top.
*
*
RACE 6: Post: 3:06 ET Grade: C+
Use: 4-Slick Star; 6-Deckology; 10-Money Come

Forecast: This restricted (nw-3) $6,250 claiming sprint looks fairly wide open and requires a spread in rolling exotic play. Deckology returns to his winning level and has recent speed figures vs. tougher foes that are good enough to beat this field. Both of his career wins have been earned over the local main track, and with the addition of I. Ortiz, Jr. the son of Point of Entry appears extremely well-meant at 7/2 on the morning line. Slick Star, in the money in his last six and dropping to his lowest level ever, always seems vulnerable under pressure in the final furlong but against this group could easily see out the trip. The Bellamy Road gelding projects to be on or near the lead throughout. Money Come is just 2-for-28 with 12 seconds and thirds and is another one that has found it difficult to seal the deal. Perhaps the switch to L. Saez will make a difference.
*
*
RACE 7: Post: 3:36 ET Grade: B-
Use: 5-National Honor; 12-Rocket Joe Copper

Forecast: We’re not crazy about the extreme outside draw that Rocket Joe Copper will have to deal with in this one mile grass affair for older $16,000 claimers but this class drop to his lowest level ever seems realistic, so if the R. Spatz-trained gelding can work out a decent trip under I. Ortiz, Jr. he’ll be the one to beat. The versatile son of Rock the Rocket can be dangerous on the front end or when held up early and allowed to run late and both of his prior races over the local lawn were solid. National Honor, entered this past Sunday but opting for this race, was a winner at Parx in his most recent outing in September and has two prior victories over the local turf course. He’s a deep closer that needs pace up front and good racing luck to have his best chance. Both should be used in rolling exotic play; we’ll press with extra tickets keying Rocket Joe Copper on top.
*
*
RACE 8: Post: 4:06 ET Grade: B
Use: 1-Geonosis; 2-Glory of Florida; 5-Answer In

Forecast: Geonosis is a genuine and consistent gelding fresh from a nice GPW victory last month over a wet fast track around two turns in a starter event and is properly spotted in this one-turn mile for allowance/optional $25,000 claimers. A three-time winner over the local main track and especially effective at this trip, the son of Dialed In employs a second-flight, stalking style, has speed figures that fit, shows a bullet three furlong breeze (35 3/5) six days ago and is enticingly-priced at 8-1 on the morning line. Glory of Florida is well-placed for a big effort as well and also appears attractive at 5-1 on the morning line. All four of his career victories have been accomplished at Gulfstream Park and the speed figures he earned in each of the three races since joining the high-percentage C. David barn make him a serious contender at this level. Answer In, a dangerous Churchill Downs invader from the B. Cox barn, was a highly-regarded 3-year-old earlier this year (he was third as the favorite in the Southwest S.-G3) and ran better than the line will show when fourth in his recent comeback. This one-turn mile trip appears perfect for his style, so at 5/2 on the morning line he’s certain to get plenty of play and deservedly so.
*
*
RACE 9: Post: 4:36 ET Grade: B
Use: 1-Dundalk; 4-Soglio; 8-Mo Hawk

Forecast: Soglio, first off the claim for S. Klesaris, is waiver protected while launching a comeback following a 10-month vacation and in fact won off an extended layoff when last seen in February of this year. The son of Scat Daddy returns with I. Ortiz, Jr. while showing a bullet half mile grass workout (:47 3/5 around dogs, fastest of 45) at Palm Meadows late last month, so we’ll assume the ex-classer is fit and ready. Dundalk is guaranteed an ideal ground-saving, front-running trip from his favorable inside draw and if not pressured up front could take his foes a very long way. The Laurel invader will be making his third start off a long layoff and is shortening to a flat mile, his preferred trip. Mo Hawk shows up in a seller for the first time and is likely to draft into a cozy pace-stalking position outside. Fairly-well regarded in his younger days, the son of Uncle Mo has form at Indian Downs that charts fairly well with this group.
*
*
RACE 10: Post: 5:06 ET Grade: B
Use: 9-A Beautiful Day; 10-Aerodynamic

Forecast: The finale is a mid-level claiming miler for fillies and mares. We’ll try to get by using just two. A Beautiful Day has won three of her last four and seems properly spotted for another big effort. The daughter of Prospective is moving up from the restricted (nw-3) $12,500 level to this open $16,000 affair, but her numbers continue to rise and another forward move is possible, if not likely. P. Lopez stays aboard and knows her well. Aerodynamic, freshened since late September, is a three-time winner over the local lawn and is better suited against this group than the allowance optional claimers that were out of her range last time out. She has a good stalking style and catches what projects to be a favorable pace scenario.

Brian W. Spencer's Daily Picks Mountaineer - Race #3


Picks
Notes


#4 Just U and Me Kid
Took a little step forward in that second lifetime start, and though he needs another significant move in the right direction to handle the chalk, he may offer a fair enough price as the second choice to give him a shot.


#2 Touchdown Jesus
He's the most likely winner in here by a long way off the really good debut run. He returns with Lasix for this second trip to post and may not even need a repeat of that last one to score.


#3 Tuffian
Debuts out of the same barn as the chalk, and the team can get them ready to run good ones at first asking. There isn't much else in here on paper, so he won't have to be a whole lot to land a piece.


Race Summary
Just U and Me Kid makes his local debut off a couple of mostly even Mahoning Valley tries, and he may offer a decent price with a likely odds-on chalk signed on in here.


Mountaineer - Race #5


Picks
Notes


#5 Ears Up
Caught a tough winner in the local debut, and now he'll drop in to try the local claiming company for the first time. Guessing he'll be a good fit with this kind.


#8 U S S Costly
He turned in a big effort at first asking before returning with two complete duds with Lasix. Not sure what to make of him here on the drop, but his ceiling is obviously high enough to win this. Still, I wouldn't want any short kind of price off those last two.


#2 Rock Solid Truth
He'll step up for this one, but he has been competitive at this price with the locals before. He's probably best used underneath.


Race Summary
Ears Up might be the right one to use in trying to beat a somewhat suspect U S S Costly. He has been in with better and could wake up a bit with these.


Mountaineer - Race #9


Picks
Notes


#8 Whiskey Moment
A handful of potential forward players might set things up for something from off the pace, and this guy has a sort of modest finishing gear that may allow him to grind out a score with a good race shape looming.


#10 Anytimeallthetime
Not much to write home about from those last two, and while this drop can make him tough, he's probably going to have to hustle a bit to get in the mix early from the outside, and that may not be the best place to be in this one.


#4 Crealock
Faces winners for the first time, but he might be able to settle and finish in hopes of passing some of the gassed early players in the lane. Underneath?


Race Summary
Whiskey Moment is appealing enough at something like the 10/1 ML price, as he should get outrun in the early going, leaving him with a late run into what figures to be a fair pace.

Frank Carulli's Daily Picks Harrah's Philadelphia - Race #2


Picks
Notes


#3 ALWAYS BE LUCY
Vacated pocket to go after 5-2 pace-setter, late drift proved costly.


#7 ENGLISH ROSE
Won twice since November, broke stride twice since November.


#8 LOVERS COVE
Yonkers invader back-pedaled last week but fits off prior running lines.


Race Summary
Always Be Lucy has an exceptional lifetime record, but she drifted in late stretch and it proved costly. She enters a low-percentage barn but can win if she minds her manners. Play 3-7 and 3-8 exactas.


Pompano Park - Race #2


Picks
Notes


#7 MR WISCONSIN
Hoosier invader is all-or-nothing type, should win if he stays flat.


#1 DAMIEN HALL
Passed the favorite, finished second to the pocket sitter.


#4 PAYOFF PITCH
Good speed, acclimated locally, inflated price, use in gimmicks.


Race Summary
Mr Wisconsin broke stride in 2 of his last 3 starts, stands 1-22 lifetime and hasn’t raced in five weeks. However, a duplicate of his race in the Indiana Sire Stakes two starts back would win this. He made a bold move at the odds-on favorite on the final turn and just missed while widest in a 3-horse blanket finish.


Northfield Park - Race #3


Picks
Notes


#9 MAX PLAY
Repelled by the favorite after early move, held well for third, live longshot.


#6 MAE’S DIAMOND
Led clear until stretch but tired on ‘off’ track that played slow.


#1 I’M BLUFFIN YA
Gave way chasing ‘Diamond,’ gets aggressive driver from the rail.


Race Summary
Max Play saved ground in fourth, came out before the half and drew even with the pace-setting favorite, then rode the pocket the rest of the way to finish third. He starts from the second tier again but could work out a good trip behind I’m Bluffin Ya. Play a 1-6-9 exacta box.

Jerry Shottenkirk's Daily Picks Gulfstream Park - Race #8


Picks
Notes


#2 Glory of Florida
Just ran out of room last time and has been in good form over thee past few months; likes the track and is well placed today.


#1 Geonosis
Was up in time at GPW last out and has the tactical speed to stalk from the inside; has taken two of his last three and is much improved from mid-year, when he was in bottom claiming races.


#3 War Stopper
Showed brief speed and then tired in the G3 Gotham; was an easy maiden winner two back at Aqueduct and has worked for his first since March.


Race Summary
Glory of Florida doesn't run many bad ones and is coming off one of his better efforts, although he was second; he back to one turn and can pack some punch.


Gulfstream Park - Race #9


Picks
Notes


#1 Dundalk
Came off a 13-month layoff with a good second and then followed with a third, both at Laurel; does his best on the front and speed is usually tough on this course.


#4 Soglio
Was up in time and claimed last time out, which was in February; makes his first for the Klesaris barn and has some good works to his credit. Getting I. Ortiz board for his first back is a good sign.


#6 Zulu
Is a late mover, and while he usually needs more ground that this, he'll have a good pace to set up some kind of run from him.


Race Summary
Dundalk is very good on the front end and gets his chance today; big player in his third off a layoff.


Gulfstream Park - Race #10


Picks
Notes


#2 Pert
Was in very good form in her last one at GPW, when she refused at the start; she had one three of her last six and was claimed by Negrete last out. Has won two of four over this course; don't be surprised if the Tonalist filly gets back to form.


#5 La Incondicional
Ran on for second in her latest and won over this course in April; usually is fairly close to the early action and can finish.


#10 Aerodynamic
Stepped up to a much tougher level last time and should be tough as she comes back down to a more comfortable price; she won two straight here in August.


Race Summary
Pert has had three works -- including one very sharp half-mile move -- since refusing last time in a race that came off the turf. She had been performing well and is 'blinkers off' for her return. Has done well over the course and will do well if she feels like going when they send them on their way.

Sport/League: SOC
Date/Time: December 9, 2020 3PM EST
Play: Inter Milan -1.5 (-130)
Champions League - Shakhtar Donetsk at Inter Milan
Quick Synopsis: Who advances in this group has come down to the final match day with all 4 teams with a chance and as far as these two are concerned Inter Milan would qualify if they win on Wednesday AND the other game between Real Madrid and Borussia Monchengladbach does not end in a draw. Shakhtar get in with a win OR if both group games end in a draw. Inter and Shakhtar played to a scoreless draw in Ukraine on match day 2 and Inter held all the advantages in the important metrics with the exception of the final score. That was more of a makeshift line up back then for Shakhtar who were still dealing with covid issue and a much more defensive side. Having players back here might be more of a disadvantage than an advantage as weird as that may sound. Quality wise Inter are the better side here and these two did meet in last seasons Europa League semifinals with similar line ups with Inter winning 5-0. While I wouldn’t expect the same to happen here if Inter are able to get ahead early they are at an extreme advantage here and should cover the goal line with relative easy. Shakhtar showed in their match day 3 and 4 losses to Gladbach by a combined 10-0 goal differential that they’re not built to chase games. With those thoughts in mind the free play here is Inter Milan –1.5 and I’d recommend grabbing this number early as I can see it easily going to –1.75 which is an Asian split line of –1.5 and –2.0 and that would still be playable.
The play is Inter Milan -1.5 -120

Brandon Siefken Event: (619) Marshall at (620) Coll Of Charleston
Sport/League: CBB
Date/Time: December 9, 2020 7PM EST
Play: Marshall -5.5 (-110)
This is a rare 4% play I am putting out as a free play. My numbers have Marshall winning this game 89-62. After checking the numbers closer I do not think it will be this much of a drubbing but 5.5 seems quite small to give. Marshall just beat Wright State by 16 on the road and I have Wright State more than 80 spots over Charleston. I have Furman about equal to Marshall and Charleston just lost to them by 24. Everything points to Marshall winning big. Bet Marshall -5.5.

Play on: Borussia Monchengladbach +1 -122 at betonline

Wednesday Champions League Free play. My selection is on Monchengladbach +1 goal over Real Madrid at 3 pm et on Wednesday.
We've been high on 'Gladbach throughout Champions League action and will certainly grab the insurance goal with them here as they look to put a wrap on top spot in Group B or at the very least clinch their spot in the knockout stage. There's still everything to play for in the group of course with only three points separating the four positions. Real Madrid is coming off a 1-0 victory over Sevilla in La Liga action but certainly hasn't been in top form lately, most recently suffering a stunning 2-0 defeat at the hands of Shakhtar in Champions League play last week. 'Gladbach didn't bring its best effort the last time these two squads met back in October, yet still managed to come away with a point in a 2-2 draw. Another draw wouldn't surprise in the least on Wednesday. Take Monchengladbach +1 goal (8*).

# 8 APALACHEE BAY 9/5




# 3 ACADEMY BAY 6/1




# 7 HATTIES JEWEL 7/2




APALACHEE BAY looks to be a respectable contender. Well above average win clip at this distance/surface. Has to be given consideration based on the quite good speed rating put up in the last contest. Appears to have a decent class edge based on the recent company kept. ACADEMY BAY - Earnings per start in dirt sprint races is solid for this horse. Could provide positive dividends based on formidable recent Speed Figures with an average of 80. HATTIES JEWEL - Ought to be carefully examined based on the strong speed figure posted in the last contest. Well above average win clip at this distance/surface.

#3 RULING (ML=5/2)
#4 PATAZ (ML=7/2)
#5 STORMY LEO (ML=3/1)


RULING - The most dangerous animal in racing is the lone speed horse. If they let him get away early they probably won't catch him. This speed horse could take the lead quickly. My guess is he'll take a shot at getting the early lead and taking it home. Ran in the last race against a tougher field at Charles Town. The move down the class ladder should suit him well. Another way to evaluate class is earnings per race. This racer has the uppermost in the group. I think he'll be close at the finish line. PATAZ - The jockey and handler combination have a beneficial ROI when they team up. Sub-par performance in the last race at Charles Town was due to the off-going (he finished fifth). Should do much better in this field without the slop. STORMY LEO - You always have to be on the watch for money generating jock/trainer duos; we have an instance right here.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 TAPTAPTAP (ML=9/2), #7 A POWERFUL TALE (ML=6/1), #6 UNION GRACE (ML=8/1),

TAPTAPTAP - The speed figure last out doesn't fit very well in this race when I look at the class rating of today's contest. Mark this horse as a questionable contender. A POWERFUL TALE - When checking today's Equibase class figure, he will have to garner a much better rating than last out to compete in this dirt sprint. UNION GRACE - If you keep playing these sort of 'hanger' types, you're going to be disappointed regularly. Finished second in his most recent race with a substandard speed figure. When I look at today's class figure, it would take an improved performance to prove victorious after that in this group.

https://www.trackmaster.com/images/tophat.jpgGUEST COMMENTARY: The Turf Man - RULING - This solid grass runner is the horse to beat in this contest.

# 2 GLORY OF FLORIDA 5/1




# 1 GEONOSIS 8/1




# 7 IL FARAONE 20/1




I think GLORY OF FLORIDA is a decent choice. With a sound jock who has won at a very good 25 percent clip over the last month. This has to be one of the top picks. Will most likely be one of the early speedsters of the bunch going into the midpoint of the race. Is a solid contender - given the 103 Equibase Speed Figure from his most recent race. GEONOSIS - Like the finish positions in the last couple of events. His 86 average has this colt with among the best Equibase Speed Figures in here. IL FARAONE - When this jockey and conditioner team up, bettors often make money. Well above average win rate at this distance/surface.

#4 JUST U AND ME KID (ML=9/2)


JUST U AND ME KID - Coming off a fourth place finish at Mahoning Valley Race Cour, some may skip this horse. I'm not. He just missed hitting the show spot, and has pretty good odds today. Nice return on investment for this rider and handler twosome. This animal didn't run well on a track listed as good in his last race around the track at Mahoning Valley Race Cour. You should disregard that effort.

Vulnerable Contenders: #2 TOUCHDOWN JESUS (ML=3/5), #1 TEAM LEYENDECKER (ML=6/1), #7 JOE'Z BIZ (ML=6/1),

TOUCHDOWN JESUS - I'm prognosticating a less than stellar go out of him this time. TEAM LEYENDECKER - Not the proper 'fit' in this race. JOE'Z BIZ - Didn't land in the money on August 29th at Monmouth Park. Followed it up with another less than stellar outing. Will be hard for this animal to beat this group off of that last speed rating. Improbable to improve enough to run a figure close enough to today's class figure, so put him on the questionable contenders list.

NCAA-B | Marshall vs College of Charleston
Play on: Marshall -5½ -110 at sportsbook

PICK - Marshall Thundering Herd -5.5
RATING: 30*
ROT#: 619
I will gladly take Marshall at -5.5 on the road against College of Charleston. The Thundering Herd are currently ranked No. 88 in KenPom, while the Cougars are way back at No. 202.
Marshall is a team that I'm really high on coming into the 2020-21 campaign. After starting out last season 2-6, the Herd went 15-9 over their last 24 games, including a 7-2 run to close things out.
With all 5 starters back Marshall should be even stronger and are more than capable of winning C-USA this year. Last time out they were only a 1-point road favorite at Wright State and won that game by 14.
As for Charleston, they only return 1 starter from last year's team that went just 17-14. They are just 1-2 to start the season and the lone win is against a non-DI opponent in Limestone. They lost by 19 at UNC and by 24 at Furman in their two losses.
Big thing to note with the Cougars is this is a team that's built around their defense and it hasn't been great in their two games against quality opponents. They allowed 79 points to the Tar Heels and 81 to Furman. With how fast and potent Marshall is offensively, I just don't see Charleston keeping this close. Give me the Thundering Herd -5.5!

The Nebraska Cornhuskers are one of the most improved teams in the country this season. That isn’t hard to believe considering Fred Hoiberg is one of the best coaches in the land after what he did with Iowa State several years ago before moving onto the NBA. And Hoiberg is now in his second season with the Huskers. They are 3-1 this year with their only loss coming to Nevada by 3. They face a Georgia Tech team tonight that is in a letdown spot off their upset win over Kentucky on Sunday. The Huskers have had a full week to get ready for Georgia Tech after last playing on December 1st. And this is a Georgia Tech team that was upset by Georgia State as an 8.5-point favorite and also upset by Mercer as a 10-point favorite prior to beating Kentucky. The Huskers are 50-24 ATS in their last 74 home games with a line of +3 to -3. Give me Nebraska.

Play on: Nebraska -121 at Draft Kings

Georgia Tech vs Nebraska Free Pick December 9, 2020
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are owners of one of the highest-scoring averages in the nation, but a 123-120 quadruple overtime game is skewing these stats severely.
The Yellow Jackets are 1-2 SU and ATS on the season and here they'll come up against a solid Nebraska squad that is 3-1 SU and 2-2 ATS.
The Cornhuskers are coming off a much-needed break after playing four games in seven days. Coming this one, they'll be well-rested as they've not been in action since a 76-69 win over South Dakota on December 1.
The Yellow Jackets last played on December 6, an admittedly impressive 79-62 triumph as a 6.5-point underdog to then No. 20 Kentucky. I sense a potential letdown spot for Georgia Tech here, so I'm backing the home team Nebraska to get it done.
Free pick on Nebraska.

The Key: The Xavier Musketeers are coming off their huge rivalry game in a 77-69 upset win at Cincinnati on Sunday. This game has letdown written all over it, especially with their Big East conference opener against Providence on deck Saturday. Expect them to lose to Oklahoma here. The Musketeers are 6-0 but could easily be 3-3 or worse. Four of their 6 wins have come by 8 points or less, including three by 3 points or fewer over Bradley (51-50), Toledo (76-73) and Eastern Kentucky (99-96). Oklahoma is loaded this year with 3 returning starters led by seniors Brady Manek (21.5 PPG, 5.5 RPG) and Austin Reaves (20.0 PPG, 7.0 RPG). These two averages 29.1 PPG combined last year and have taken their games to the next level this year. Sophomore De’Vion Harmon (17.5 PPG) has also taken a big leap after not scoring more than 14 points in any game once last year. The Musketeers are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 home games against a team with a winning record. Take Oklahoma.

NCAA-B | California vs Pepperdine
Play on: Pepperdine -4 -110 at Mirage

Pepperdine -4
We backed Pepperdine earlier this season and it worked out well for us. This team returns a lot of starters and have the ability to really put the pressure on opposing defenses with their speed. Cal has struggled going just 2-3 out of the gates with some very sub par wins thus far. Look for Pepperdine to control the pace of play and really look to get out in transition and run.
Back Pepperdine.
Good Luck, Razor Ray.

NCAA-B | Pittsburgh vs Northwestern
Play on: Pittsburgh +4 -108 at Draft Kings

I like what Capel is doing with this Pittsburgh team. They have went from a complete laughing stock to a team that is capable of knocking you off if you dont bring your A game. I believe Pitt has the overall better talent here lead by Johnson and Champagne. They also have a couple transfers that will contribute as well. I also believe that Northwestern has a chance to be the worst team in the Big 10 so quite frankly they shouldn't be laying points to anyone.
