Play on: Toledo -18½ -106 at pinnacle

MACtion continues tonight with an East Division contest. Toledo has skyrocketed from -17 to -19 9now. 18.5) and taken the total for a ride also, as that number has gone from 61.5 to 64.5. This Rockets club is not what we are used to watching at only 4-4 and the problem is the defense, which is permitting 33 PPG. Ball State only gains 15 fewer YPG than Toledo but has scored 23.8 PPG compared to their 40.7. The Cardinals will also be without their normal starting QB, which makes matters worse. If you figure the Rockets get their normal scoring average and Ball State just reaches 20, that's a cover for Toledo. The total seems high, but this home team is 17-4 OVER in their stadium after a win by 17 or more points.

10* FREE NCAAF PICK (Toledo -18.5)
I'll take my chances here with Toledo covering the big number at home. I just think that the injuries Ball State is dealing with on the offensive side of the ball are going to be too much to overcome.
The big story line here will be the Cardinals playing without starting quarterback Riley Neal, who is out with a knee injury. That's a big time loss for this team. Neal has a 11-4 TD-INT ratio and is second on the team with 357 rushing yards and tied for the team lead with 5 rushing touchdowns.
They could also be playing without leading rusher James Gilbert (questionable) and backup running back Caleb Huntley (questionable). Gilbert is dealing with a back injury and Huntley hasn't played the last 3 games. Starting left tackle Kaleb Slaven is also doubtful to play. There's only one injury on defense, but it's a big one in star linebacker Jacob White, who led the team in tackles last year.
After watching how badly this team played after Neal went down against Ohio last week, I just don't know how you can trust this team to show up on the road against a team like Toledo, who can score in bunches. The Rockets had over 515 yards on the road against a pretty good Western Michigan team and Ball State let Ohio rack up 554 yards in their last contest.
Another thing here, is this Ball State team hasn't exactly performed great when things are going poorly. The Cardinals are just 2-9 in their last 11 off a loss by 10 or more to a conference rival. They are also a mere 1-8 ATS off a loss by 21 or more and have lost the next time out by an average of 30.3 points/game.
On the flip side of this, the Rockets have been a great team to back when they are fresh off a big win. In fact, Toledo is 14-4 ATS in their last 18 home games off a conference win by 21 or more points. I just don't think it's asking a lot for the Rockets to win here by at least 20 points. Give me Toledo -18.5!

Play on: Nets -2½ -110 at Bovada

These two teams have already met the first game of the season and the Pistons came out on top winning by 3. In that game though the Nets were ice cold from long range shooting 18% from distance. That number will change and I think we get a motivated Nets team with revenge plus coming off an ugly loss against the Knicks.
The Pistons are in a tougher spot here giving a huge effort last night against the Celtics but came up short. In fact both of their losses are against Boston. The line is telling you something here wy the Nets are favored and this will move higher.

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach NBA Game #701 Wednesday Free Pick Detroit Pistons (+) @ Brooklyn Nets @ 7:35 ET - This is a revenge game for the Nets and the Pistons are in a back to back spot. However, it won't matter. Brooklyn's strength on defense this season has been stopping the 3-ball but that is not what Detroit does. The Pistons pound teams inside with Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond and the Nets simply can not stop this! Also, Detroit is NOT in a good mood! They are fired up off back to back losses to the Celtics and that means there is no doubt that Detroit brings their "A game" for this one. The fact we can get a few points in addition to backing the team that should dominate this one is why you're reading about this right here in this spot. Looks like a great spot for a winner for us. In terms of technical support, the Pistons have won 3 straight games over Brooklyn and also the road team is a perfect 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings between these teams! The Nets are 19-70 SU in games against teams with a winning record! Grab the road dog here! Yes, it is a back to back but the Pistons are hungry and take out their frustration on an over-matched Brooklyn team in this one! Free Pick DETROIT

Play on: Pistons +2½ -102 at pinnacle

I like the Nets far more as a 'dog than favorite. The teams met opening night in Detroit and the Pistons won, 103-100. That game was close and Detroit failed to cover as a 6-point favorite. However, the Nets shot 48.8 percent from the floor while the Pistons hit just 42.4 percent of their field goal attempts. Both teams are off disappointing losses. The Pistons opened 4-0, but are now 4-2 after consecutive losses to the Celtics. No shame in that. The Pistons aren't in Boston's class for sure. But they are a level higher than the Nets. Brooklyn was blown out by the Knicks on Monday. The Nets were outrebounded, 53-32, by the Knicks. The Nets also were outrebounded by nine in their loss to the Pistons. They couldn't control Andre Drummond, who had 24 points and 20 rebounds. The Nets are going to have trouble again with Drummond on the boards. Blake Griffin and Drummond provide the Pistons with the two best players on the court. Detroit is 5-1 in its last six games against the Nets. The Pistons beat the Nets in both meetings at Barclays Center last season winning by 34 and 12 points. (Editor's note: Stephen Nover has long been one of the top NBA 'cappers in North America and he's off to another winning year this season.

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Utah Jazz -5.5
The Utah Jazz are one of the best teams in the NBA. And they’ve been playing their best on the road this season as they’ve gone 4-0 SU & 3-1 ATS with all four victories coming by at least 6 points. They won by 11 in Houston, by 21 in New Orleans and by 9 in Dallas in their last three games coming in. Now they face a Minnesota Timberwolves team that could be without three starters. Jimmy Butler is out due to rest and Jeff Teague is out with a knee injury. Andrew Wiggins is questionable with a quad injury. Give me the Jazz.

Dave’s Wednesday Free Play:
1* on Chicago Bulls +8.5
The Key: The Bulls are catching a few too many points at home tonight to the Denver Nuggets. The last thing the betting public remembers was the Bulls giving up 51 points and an NBA-record 14 3-pointers to Klay Thompson in a 149-124 Warriors win. But the Bulls had played well prior to that defeat and it was simply a once-in-a-lifetime performance from Thompson. They should be able to hang with the Nuggets tonight, who won’t be taking them too seriously. The Nuggets have played just 2 road games this season and split them with a win over the Clippers and a loss to the Lakers. They aren’t nearly as good on the road as they are at home through the years. Denver is 2-12 ATS in its last 14 games after scoring 110 points or more in 3 consecutive games. Take Chicago.
