CFL | Edmonton Elks vs Toronto
Play on: OVER 44½ -110

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach CFL Tuesday Free Pick OVER 44.5 in Toronto Argonauts vs Edmonton Elks @ 7:30 ET - The line on the side in this game has come way down as the Argos clinched a home playoff game with their win over Hamilton last week. That said, Toronto's main objective is just to stay healthy but QB Pipkin has CFL experience, including this season, and he'll get the start here as the Argos rest some starters. The thing is Edmonton is on even shorter rest than the Argonauts and so I just can not trust the 2-10 Elks here even though they may be the more motivated team. I do look for the offense to continue scoring well here though as they have come on strong in recent games in terms of yardage production. That said, I like the over here as the Argos offense, even with the QB switch, still have plenty of talent on that side of the ball and both defenses could have some tired banged up guys out there and, lets face it, this late season match-up just does not provide a lot of incentive for defensive intensity. This is particularly true on the short week as this game is getting squeezed in as a rescheduled match-up from earlier

NBA | Warriors vs Nets
Play on: Nets -3 -104 at pinnacle

My free play is on the Brk Nets at 7:35 ET.


The Golden State Warriors went from FIVE consecutive appearances in the NBA Finals to 15-50 in the 2019-20 season. Last season was better (39-33) but NO one expected the Warriors to open the current season 11-1. Any doubts these days regarding Steph's greatness? That said, the Warriors did get a huge boost from the schedule-maker, as Golden St had an eight-game homestand at Chase Center from Oct 28-Nov 12 (lost first game but won the last seven). The Warriors lost the first game of what will be a five-game road trip on Sunday, falling 106-102 at Charlotte.


The now 11-2 Warriors play at Barclays Center tonight against KD and the Nets, who have opened 10-4. Brooklyn was 48-24 last season, just ONE game worse than the East's No. 1 seed, Philadelphia. After taking out the Celtics 4-1 in the first round, the Nets won the first two games at home against the Bucks but saw Milwaukee bounce back to take that series with a 115-111 (OT) Game 7 win at Barclays. All are aware that Kyrie is not with the team this season (for how long?), but after starting 2-3, the Nets have won EIGHT of their last nine!


Klay Thompson is hopeful to be back in mid-January but there is no timetable on James Wisenman's return from knee surgery (team's 1st-round pick last year). The team that is, is led by Curry (28.1-6.2-6,7), who has gotten strong support from SF Wiggins (18.0 & 4.6) plus SG Poole (17.2). Reserve guard Lee (10.1) makes four double digit scorers but the "do everything" Green (8.2-8.1-7.1) does not quite "do everything" the way he used to.


KD leads the NBA in scoring at 29.6 PPG, while adding 8.4 RPG and 5.1 APG. James Harden (19.5-7.6-8.3) has knocked off the early rust following a summer of strictly rehab from two hamstring injuries. He scored 16 points on Sunday and is averaging 20.4 points and 10 assists in his past seven games. That includes a 39-point game Friday in New Orleans. PF/C Aldridge (12.8 & 5.7), PG Harris (11.3) and reserve guard Mills (10.4), alo score in double digits.


I have to believe both Curry and KD want to win badly and as great as Steph has been, KD is having a 'knockout' season. He is shooting a career-best 58.6 percent.and has scored at least 22 points in every game, while racking up seven 30-point games so far this season. He just averaged 31.5 points during Brooklyn's 5-1 road trip that featured three double-digit victories and ended it by scoring 33 points in Sunday's 120-96 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. I'm playing KD and the Nets in this one.


Good luck...Larry

NCAA-F | Bowling Green vs Miami-OH
Play on: Miami-OH -17 -107 at pinnacle

Jack's Free Pick Tuesday: Miami Ohio -17
The Miami Ohio Redhawks are tied for first in the MAC East right now. They have a lot to play for and still need another win to get bowl eligible. They put forth a big effort in a 45-18 win over Buffalo last week, and I look for another big effort from them on Senior Night in their home finale to get the win and cover against Bowling Green.
The Bowling Green Falcons were a good story early in the season, opening 5-0 ATS in their first five games with an upset win over Minnesota. But they have been overvalued since, especially of late as they have lost five of their last six games overall. Their two most recent losses were blowouts by 31 to Eastern Michigan and by 32 to Toledo.
Now the Falcons sit a 3-7 on the season and have officially been eliminated from bowl contention. I question their motivation the rest of the way, especially tonight off their 17-49 loss to Toledo last week. That game was every bit the blowout that the final score showed. The Falcons managed just 196 total yards and gave up 539 to Toledo, getting outgained by 343 yards by the Rockets.
The Falcons have now allowed 539, 499 and 455 yards in their last three games coming in. Things won't get any easier for their defense tonight against a Miami Ohio offense that is hitting its stride. The Redhawks had 569 yards against Ohio two weeks ago and 536 more against Buffalo last week. And they still have one of the best defenses in the MAC, giving up just 20.2 points and 357.3 yards per game in conference play this season.
Miami Ohio is 7-0 ATS in its last seven home games after averaging 475 or more yards per game in their last three games coming in. The Redhawks are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 home games. Miami Ohio is 19-8 ATS in its last 27 conference games. Bowling Green is 4-10 ATS in its last 14 conference games. Bet Miami Ohio Tuesday.

NHL | Sharks vs Wild
Play on: Wild -185 at linepros

Tuesday NHL Free play. My selection is on Minnesota over San Jose at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday.
The Wild return home off a successful three-game road trip to open a brief two-game homestand against the reeling Sharks on Tuesday night. I like their chances of extending their home dominance. Note that the Wild check in 19-7 in their last 26 games following consecutive road contests, outscoring the opposition by 1.1 goals on average in that spot. On the flip side, the Sharks are a miserable 12-34 in their last 46 contests following consecutive road tilts over the last two-plus seasons, outscored by a wide margin of 1.4 goals on average in that situation. San Jose opened its current trip with a 4-1 win in Calgary but has since dropped back-to-back games by a combined 10-3 score. Even the win in Calgary was somewhat fortunate as San Jose was outshot by a 38-26 margin in that game. Note that the Sharks have averaged a woeful 1.7 goals and been outscored by 1.3 goals on average the last six times they've played on the road after giving up four goals or more in consecutive games. We're being asked to lay a fairly steep price to back the Wild in this spot, but it's warranted in my opinion, especially when you consider you would have to go back four meetings in this series to find the last time the Sharks won a game over Minnesota. Take Minnesota.

The Nevada Wolfpack travel to Santa Clara to take on the Broncos on Tuesday night. Nevada is 1-1 SU overall this year while Santa Clara comes in with a 2-0 SU overall record on the season.

Nevada is 8-3 ATS last 11 road games. Santa Clara is 5-18 ATS last 23 games after an ATS win. The favorite is 4-1 ATS last 5 meetings overall in this series.

NCAA-B | BYU vs Oregon
Play on: Oregon -4 -110 at Caesars

Dave's Tuesday Free Play:
1* on Oregon -4
The Key: The Oregon Ducks look strong again this season. After starting the season with an 83-66 win over Texas Southern, they put together a very impressive 86-63 win as a 7.5-point favorite against a very good SMU team. BYU beat Cleveland State by 10 and San Diego State by 6 to open the year. Now they go on the road for the first time, and while it is technically a neutral court, it will basically be a home game for the Ducks being played in Portland, Oregon. I trust Dana Altman more to get the job done tonight. The Cougars are 5-21 ATS in their last 26 neutral site games as underdogs. The Ducks are 14-5 ATS in their last 19 neutral site games. Take Oregon.

NBA | 76ers vs Jazz
Play on: 76ers +9½ +103 at pinnacle

1* NBA - 76ers/Jazz FREE PICK on 76ers +9.5
Tuesday's Free NBA Pick is on the Philadelphia 76ers as a 9.5-point road dog against the Utah Jazz. I know the 76ers are going to be without Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons is still out, but this just feels like a few too many for a struggling Jazz team to be laying and it makes sense that the line is being inflated some with this being a big game on TNT that is going to get a lot of action. The Jazz are just 1-4 SU and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games which includes a 100-111 loss at home to the Pacers as a 10.5-point favorite and a 105-111 loss at home to the Heat as a 9-point favorite. Bet the 76ers +9.5!

Play on: 76ers +10 -110 at linepros

I know, no Embiid no Simmons but this line is out of control here now. The Sixers have lost 4 straight and failed to cover in each of those but each of those games were decided by single digits. The Sixers have actually played their best on the road with a 4-2 SU record. The Jazz simply shouldn't be laying this much either. They have lost 4 of their last 5 games.

Play on: Jazz -9½ -110 at Mirage

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Utah Jazz -9.5
This looks like a get right game for the Utah Jazz. They have been upset in two straight home games as similar favorites to Indiana and Miami. But now they take on a short-handed Philadelphia 76ers team that is 0-4 SU & 0-4 ATS in their last four games overall. The 76ers are without Embiid, Simmons, Thybulle and Green right now which is why they are struggling. The Jazz are fully healthy and focused for a win here. The 76ers are 7-23-1 ATS in their last 31 games as road underdogs. The Jazz are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games playing on two days of rest. Give me the Jazz.

NHL | Capitals vs Ducks
Play on: Capitals -130 at linepros

The Ducks check in on an impressive 7-game winning streak. Yet, they're underdogs. That's for good reason, in my opinion. Like the Ducks, the Capitals are on a winning streak. They've won four straight. Off a 6-1 blowout of the Penguins, they're full of confidence. Ovechkin has eight points during the 4-game winning streak. The teams didn't play last season but the Caps won both meetings the previous season. They're going to be highly motivated to start their West Coast trip with a victory and I like their chances of getting one. Consider Washington.

NHL | Capitals vs Ducks
Play on: OVER 5½ -119

This is a free play on Over.

The Ducks and the Capitals are both ranked in the Top 5 in the NHL in scoring, and we can expect a high scoring game at the Duck Pond tonight. Alex Ovechkin ranks 2nd in the NHL in goals scored, and third in the league in points. The over is 7-2-1 in the Capitals last 10 games as a road favorite, and the over is 9-4 in Ducks last 13 overall. I am gonna predict a 4-3 (OT) final score with the Capitals getting the win.
