ST. LOUIS -9

NEW YORK @ ST. LOUIS | 2/23 | 3 p.m. ET

The Guardians' goose egg last week drops them to worst in the league at 3.95 yards per play on offense, where they also rank in the bottom two in completion percentage, yards per pass attempt and yards per rush attempt. The defense wasn't particularly good either in the first week, despite allowing just three points. On the flip side, the BattleHawks went on the road against two of the presumed best teams in the league and played well in both games. That makes them a top-tier team, so I love them in this matchup, no matter the spread.

LOS ANGELES +8

DC @ LOS ANGELES | 2/23 | 6 p.m. ET

The Defenders have looked like the best team in the league over the first two weeks, but they also benefited from playing possibly the league's two worst teams in New York and Seattle, with both games at home. Now they go cross-country to face a Wildcats team that performed much better in Week 2 with Josh Johnson under center. This feels like a little bit of a shootout, and I like the Wildcats' chances of covering through the back door if needed.

The NCAAB Comp Play for Sunday is on Fairfield plus the 3-4 points at 2:00 eastern. Fairfield has covered 13 of 16 as a home dog, including 5 straight and has won 5 of their last 56 here at home. Siena coasted at home in the first meeting and have won their last 4 at home. Things should be different here today though as Siena is a dreadful 0-8 ats a a road favorite. In fact this conference has been awful of late as a road favorite Of 8 or less going 0-16-1 to the spread. Look for Fairfield to cover.

3-unit Play. #422. Take Over 40 New York vs St. Louis. Sunday @ 3:00 pm est

This is one of the two 1-1 matchups this weekend as St. Louis host its first professional football game in a very long time. The BattleHawks fought until the end against a strong Houston side, losing by just four points. St. Louis has one of the highest producing offenses in the League putting up almost 400 yards per game and nearly 20 points as well. Their biggest issue is converting their extra points, which they are 0-6 this season. Jordan Ta'amu should have another break out performance as he is averaging close to 250 yards passing per game and is completing 78 percent of his passes. For New York, they were blanked last week against DC 27-0 after making easy work of Tampa Bay in the opening weekend. New York has struggled at times, but they will face a defense that will under estimate their ability as they challenge this St. Louis side that is expecting a big crowd. New York is under producing this season for its talent and is primed for a blowout performance.

4-unit Play. #423. Take DC -8.5 over Los Angeles. Sunday @ 6:00 pm est

We like DC on the road in our third and final game of the weekend. DC are 2-0 this season having opened up the XFL with an easy 31-19 win over Seattle which was followed by a 27-0 win over a New York side that could not get out of its own way last week. DC is averaging over 300 yards per game with most of those in the air, which will be a struggle for an LA defense that is giving up 31 points per game. Cardale Jones has been a bright spot in the XFL's return and is averaging 255 yards passing per game while completing 62 percent of his passes. Rashad Ross can be difficult to slow down and should have a dominate game against this LA defense. For the host, LA are 1-1 this season and are coming off a 25-18 loss at home to a very below average Dallas side. LA does have some bright spots, but QB Josh Johnson may have come out looking better than he is as they took advantage of a Dallas side that puts up points, but struggles to slow teams down. This LA defense has giving up a league high eight TDs already this season. Though DC are on the road, LA does not have the talent to take advantage of home field.

FEATURED PICK
WISCONSIN -4.5
RUTGERS @ WISCONSIN | 2/23 | 1:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 7:56 PM
Wisconsin is 12-1 at home this season, including wins over Maryland, Michigan State, Ohio State, Purdue and Penn State. Meanwhile Rutgers is 1-6 in true road games this season. My model says the Badgers cover about 70 percent of the time, so you're getting strong value at this number.

18-11 IN LAST 29 CBB PICKS | +561
3-2 IN LAST 5 RUT ATS PICKS | +88

FEATURED PICK
OHIO ST. -2.5
MARYLAND @ OHIO ST. | 2/23 | 4:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 8:15 PM
My model says Ohio State covers almost 70 percent of the time, so you're getting strong value with the Buckeyes at this number. Ohio State is a much better shooting team at home (47.9 percent), which should help after shooting just 31.3 percent in the first meeting against Maryland, which the Terrapins won 67-55. My simulations say the Buckeyes win by close to double digits. Take Ohio State.

18-11 IN LAST 29 CBB PICKS | +561

YESTERDAY 10:23 PM
NORTHWESTERN +4
MINNESOTA @ NORTHWESTERN | 2/23 | 3:00 PM EST
Sunday, Northwestern finds itself the smallest underdog it's been in 19 games. The Wildcats' Sunday opponent, Minnesota, comes in struggling having lost five of six. And the Gophers have lost their last three Sunday games. This is another abnormal Sunday time slot, which could give the Gophers problems. Look for Northwestern to play a competitive game as it did Jan. 5 vs. Minnesota. Grab Northwestern.

Micah Roberts

NASCAR

1) #22 Joey Logano (13-2) -- He's the active leader with an 8.5 average finish at LVMS with top-10 finishes in his last eight starts, which includes a win and five top-five finishes. He's led laps in his last eight starts, showing he knows how to get out front. It has been nauseating watching him race during Daytona Speedweeks causing several wrecks, but he's got a groove going in Las Vegas.

2) #4 Kevin Harvick (4-1) -- What's better than having an anniversary with your wife every spring in Las Vegas? That's what DeLana and Kevin Harvick have done every year since getting married in Vegas when he got a Cup ride after Dale Earnhardt passed away. Harvick has won two of the past seven LVMS races and was fourth or better in both races last season. He's been racing on this track at all levels since it was built in 1996. He closed out 2019 strong with this race package, getting wins at Michigan, Indianapolis and Texas. Same package, so ...

3) #2 Brad Keselowski (6-1) -- He doesn't mess around in Las Vegas. In just 13 starts he's tied a track record with seven top-fives while winning three times in the last eight LVMS races. He's got a sweet lucky spot in town that works for him. I suggest not betting against him in matchups and perhaps betting Under on his finish position and against most drivers in matchups.

4) #19 Martin Truex Jr. (5-1) -- He's averaged a 10.8 finish between 16 LVMS starts with wins in two of his last five starts, including the fall race. In the 2017 race, he dominated all three stages with wins. This is his best-type track on the circuit with 13 career wins.

5) #12 Ryan Blaney (18-1) -- He comes off a tough runner-up finish at Daytona where he may feel down due to bumping Ryan Newman into a horrific wreck, but that's racing at 200 miles per hour, which all the drivers sign up to do. That was not his fault. Hopefully, Blaney comes in with a clear mind knowing he has finished fifth in three of the last four LVMS races. He's got Team Penske stuff and is a great bet to win.

6) #18 Kyle Busch (9-2) -- He's an emotional guy and not winning the Daytona 500 again crushes him. I'd love to say this is a bounce-back spot for him, but I'd need at least 10-to-1 odds to bite on a guy who didn't win on a 1½-mile layout last season until Homestead. I'll root for the local franchise but did not bet on him. His only Cup win on his home track was in 2009.

7) #11 Denny Hamlin (10-1) -- He has won three of the last five Daytona 500s but has never won at Las Vegas in 16 Cup starts. He has managed a 13th-place average finish with just two top-fives. Las Vegas is not his best track, but winning on two of the 11 1½-mile tracks last season should give comfort if you're betting on him.

8) #42 Kyle Larson (12-1) -- He has an 11th-place average finish between eight LVMS starts and has been runner-up between twice in his last five starts there. His team showed lots of speed in the second half of last season. He won a 2018 Xfinity Series race there in 2018.

9) #9 Chase Elliott (12-1) -- He's averaged a 21st-place finish in his six Cup starts at LVMS but was top-10 in both 2019 starts. Keep a close eye on him during final practices because he may be really fast and worth a bet. He was ninth and fourth in the two LVMS races last season.

10) #20 Erik Jones (22-1) -- In five Cup starts at LVMS his best finish was eighth in 2018. He'll be fast like his Joe Gibbs Racing teammates and is a great candidate to be the highest-paying LVMS winner in a Cup race. He won a 2014 Truck Series race at LVMS in 2014.

11) #1 Kurt Busch (30-1) -- He has won on the bullring at LVMS but not on the speedway in any series. This is his home track, and it's treated him poorly despite having elite cars in almost half his starts. His best finish was third in 2005, the season after winning his only Cup championship, and his only other top-five finish in the Cup series at home came in this race last season (fifth). He's averaging just a 22nd-place finish at LVMS. The track owes him, but he'll need lots of luck to beat the favorites.

12) #88 Alex Bowman (30-1) -- Do you remember last summer when his team figured stuff out with this race package and finished second at Kansas and won at Chicago? All that stuff applies here this week, and watching the two practices Friday should give a great indication of what he's got. Check out where he stacks up on the 10-consecutive lap averages. He was 11th and sixth in the two Vegas races last season.

13) #24 William Byron (30-1) -- Mark it down: The kid wins a race this season. Maybe it's Vegas where his crew chief set up four winning cars for Jimmie Johnson. He led laps in both races last season and had a career-best seventh in the fall race. Still, I need about 50-1 to bet him to win, something he's never done before in the Cup series at a track where no driver has ever paid out more than 20-1 odds to win in 25 LVMS Cup races.

14) #14 Clint Bowyer (50-1) -- He had top-fives in two of the first three races on 1½-mile tracks last season but didn't have another on the remaining eight at the same distance. He has a Stewart-Haas Racing ride, which should give him a good car, but Vegas hasn't been kind to him since being runner-up in 2009 while driving for Richard Childress Racing.

15) #10 Aric Almirola (30-1) -- He was seventh in the spring Vegas race and 13th in the fall race. He's got Stewart-Haas Racing power that helped him finish second at Texas during the playoffs. He's not the worst thing to spend $5 on this weekend.

16) #48 Jimmie Johnson (30-1) -- The seven-time champ holds the LVMS record with four wins and 595 laps led in his 20 Cup starts. However, he last cracked the top-10 here in 2016. I will be rooting for him to finish well because I've always admired him through his 83 career Cup wins and he's retiring after the season. But he didn't show much with this race package last season. He has top-fives at Texas and Chicago among the 11 races on 1½-mile tracks.

17) #41 Cole Custer (100-1) -- The only reason to suggest a small wager on him to win this week is that Harvick is his Stewart-Haas Racing teammate. The No. 41 was third in both Texas races last season, which is a sister track of LVMS.

18) #21 Matt DiBenedetto (75-1) -- He's had six Cup starts at LVMS driving with three different organizations, mostly underfunded, and his best finish was 21st in both races last season driving the No. 95 Toyota. The No. 21 Wood Brothers Ford was not very competitive on the 1½-mile tracks.

19) #95 Christopher Bell (60-1) -- A small case could be made to bet on him to win only because he's driving Joe Gibbs Racing equipment, but last season the race package on the smaller track was more successful than the one being used this week on the bigger track.

20) #3 Austin Dillon (100-1) -- In nine Cup starts at Vegas his best finish was fifth in 2016 and he has a respectable 15th-place average finish. He won the 2015 Xfinity Series race at LVMS in 2015.
