Tough Row To Hoe
PLAY AGAINST any 4-5 NFL road team in Game Ten of the season off a
SU favorite loss if they are facing a sub. 400 opponent.
ATS W-L Record Since 1990: 7-0
Play Against: Pittsburgh Steelers
Rationale: NFL teams in Game Ten of the season, off a disappointing loss that dropped them below .500, have a difficult time getting back up when playing on the road against inferior opposition. Note: these teams are also 0-7 STRAIGHT-UP in this role.
(3) Ravens +7.5
(5) Steelers -9
(10) TEN @ IND Over 53
(5) Dolphins -2
(5) MIA @ LA Under 39.5
(7) Seahawks -6.5
(5) NE @ SF Over 51
(3) Packers +3 -135
(5) GB @ WAS Over 49.5
5 Unit Play. #578 Take Over 158.5 in Iona @ Nevada (8 pm) Both teams have coaches that like to get up and down the floor and that should set up a strong play with the over. Iona shoots a lot of three point shots and they will get hot at some point and rattle off a quick ten points in the blink of an eye. Nevada has gone over the posted total in 8 of their last 12 nonconference games (1 push). Iona has gone over the posted total in 36 of their last 53 nonconference games.
3-Unit Play. #522. Take North Texas -5.5 over Drexel (Sunday @ 2pm est)
Per this game, we think that North Texas will be a better team this year and though their record has not shown it, and neither does their performance against Texas Tech for that matter, don't be surprised to see them bounce-back in a positive manner here. Drexel is a team that we have gone against twice now as we went against them when they face Rutgers as well recently. North Texas comes off a hrorendous loss to Texas Tech where they simply did not perform well offensively and don't hold that against them too much as Tech has new coaching and a renewed sense of energy. We like North Texas to get back on track against a Drexel team that simply does not have quality coaching and consequently we like this decent public fade as North Texas gets it done later this afternoon. The Mean Green is 4-0 ATS at home when they face a team with a winning percentage of greater than 60%.
Other Thoughts:
Take a look at Mahattan today. They likely surprise at Temple as they have talent and in a low scoring game, the points become significant. Also take a look at Creighton today, they could beat up on NC State, we show a clear power ranking differential and the 5.5 is not enough.
