3-Unit Play. #307171. Take Florida A&M +22 over Georgia Tech (Friday @ 7pm est)
Georgia Tech beat this team by 33 two years ago but much has changed. Florida A&M has faced a tough schedule this year and they will be ready to hang tough against Georgia Tech. Sure, Ga Tech beat Nebraska and Kentucky and they come off a loss against FSU but I don't know how much Georgia Tech really cares about this game. Yes, they come off a loss but FAMU also played UGA this year and lost to them by 10, they played Oklahoma and lost to them by 29 and lost to Oregon by 21. They are not going to be intimidated in anyway and I think they can be a tough dog and hang tough here today.
3-Unit Play. #845. Take Idaho +23 over Utah (Friday @ 9pm est)
If you shop around, I'm sure you can get a better price here. These two have not met since 2009 so there is no recent matchup but I want you to know that Utah has played well this year but they have Arizona State on deck. Idaho has not won a game which is perfectly fine with us because we take ugly ducklings all the time. Idaho is a team that has hung tough against other quality defenses this year and I think they can hang tough here as this team hung tight against Washington State and lost by a few points despite them being a top 80 defense. Utah is not a bad team at all but I think Idaho will play its heart out today as they have been close to some big wins lately and though they won't win, they will hang tight here in our opinion.
3-Unit Play. #839. Take UT Martin (Tennessee-Martin) +5 over Southeast Missouri State
Tennessee Martin has lost to this team by 2 and 5 points last year and they have a new coach and several upperclassmen who remembers losing to this team every year. Coach Montez Robinson is a decent coach and this team has not lost yet this season though it has been a short year. Note that Tennessee Martin has some upperlcassmen depth, they have a new coach and I think they get up to face SE Missouri State and Tennessee-Martin did beat Evansville earlier this year as well. Look for SE Missouri State who is a good team but struggles to put away teams to have another similar situation here as UT Martin hangs tight the whole game.Comment

3 Unit Play. Take #835 West Carolina +3 over Charleston (7:00 p.m. ET, Friday, Dec. 18)
This encounter features two underrated conferences that sharp basketball bettors pay attention to. West Carolina is out of the Southern Conference and Charleston from the Colonial and they are a consensus choice to end up 4th in their leagues. Though Charleston has a 2-3 record, they have faced a tougher slate. Because of that and being at home, they are three-point favorites. However, don't sleep on West Carolina at 6-2 and they are comfortable in playing in close games already, sporting a 4-1 SU record in outcomes of seven or fewer points. WC is the better shooting team and Charleston is average defensively. Also, the Cougars are 9-24 ATS off a home blowout win by 20 points. WC outright.
3 Unit Play. Take #841 Santa Clara -9 over San Jose State (9:00 p.m. ET, Friday, Dec. 18)
Herb Sendek might not have been the right fit in Arizona State but he's found a home in Santa Clara who is 6-0 (2-2 ATS). Sendek realizes his team to this point is below average from behind the arc and has built the offense around getting the ball in and just outside the paint, where they shoot almost 50%. The Broncos defense is stifling to this point in holding foes to 33.5% and 29.9% from deep. The latter is important in this Bay Area encounter. San Jose State likes to play at a faster pace and essentially lives and dies with the three-ball and is shooting less than 40% as a team from anywhere. Visiting San Clara is 9-1 and 7-2-1 ATS at San Jose State and improves on both those numbers.
3 Unit Play. Take #853 Weber State +2 over Portland State (10:05 p.m. ET, Friday, Dec. 18)
Weber State used to rule this conference for years, but continual coaching changes and different philosophies changed the culture of high scoring teams and the Wildcats and Portland State are more viewed as middle of the road this season. Each unit has lost in the one tangible skirmish you could actually mark. From what I know and based on preseason prognostications; Weber State has better scorers that will hit a higher percentage. With that in mind and the Wildcats 32-9 ATS off a road loss after scoring less than 60 points, hop on them as short underdogs.
Quite surprised Wyoming played such poor defense yesterday and move ahead on a 10-5 run the last 10 days. Also, my football package was released and for the year I'm up $5,420, at 59.3% the last 10 weeks in college and pro football and will have 13 big plays over the next five days, including bowls and have 7-Unit Best Bet on Saturday.
Good Luck, Let's Roll,

Friday's College Basketball Plays
2-Unit Play. #817 Take Fairfield (+4) over Niagara (4 p.m., Friday, December 18)
I don't think you can really argue Niagara should be this solid of a favorite. The Purple Eagles are 0-3 and scored 45, 54 and 49 points. Fairfield is coming off a 1-1 split with a solid Iona team. Niagara covered both games last year, both as an underdog. I think the Stags get this one here outright.
2-Unit Play. #835 Take Western Carolina (+3) over Charleston (7 p.m., Friday, December 18)
Western Carolina's 6-2 start firmly suggests they are already on its way to follow up last season's 19 wins with another great campaign. Charleston lost its do-it-all scoring guard Grant Riller (21.9 ppg) as well as its third and fourth leading scorers from a season ago. WCU brought back seven of its top nine players from last year's winning team. Outright small dogs is the theme for today, and I like the Catamounts to pull through over CoC.
2-Unit Play. #853 Take Weber State (+1.5) over Portland State (10:05 p.m., Friday, December 18)
Both of these teams graduated the best talent each program had, but I can at least say Weber State did its best to add new pieces via the transfer portal. Five additions from D-I programs certainly makes them deeper and arguably more dangerous. PSU swept last season's two meetings, so we're going the opposite way with Weber State and their new cast.

(Pac-12 championship)
Stanford Steve: Remember last year when the Utah Utes were a win in the Pac-12 title game away from making the College Football Playoff? Then they went out and played their worst game of the year in a spot where they had the most eyeballs on them in any of their games. It feels like USC is getting plenty of love in the general landscape of the sport, and I would be the first person to tell you the Trojans should be ranked higher. But this line doesn't make sense. It feels like the undefeated Men of Troy should be giving more points. We'll take the Ducks and buy it to 3.5 points.
Pick: Buy Oregon to +3.5 (USC 38, Oregon 35)Comment
