COLLEGE BASKETBALL

(20) Georgia Tech (17-6, 11-6 ATS) at Miami, Fla. (16-7, 8-7 ATS)
The Yellow Jackets head to South Beach and the BankUnited Center for an ACC contest with struggling Miami.
Georgia Tech held off North Carolina State 73-71 Saturday for its fifth win in the last seven games, but fell well short as a 9½-point home favorite for its second straight pointspread setback, following a four-game ATS surge. The Yellow Jackets are narrowly outscoring opponents on the road, averaging 74 points per game while allowing 73. Defensively, though, they allow just 36.8 percent shooting overall, good for third in the country.
After a torrid 15-1 SU start, Miami has dropped six of its last seven games (2-5 ATS), all in ACC play, but five of those losses came on the road. On Saturday at Florida State, the Hurricanes lost 71-65, but got the cash as an eight-point underdog. For the season, Miami has averaged 76.1 ppg at home and given up just 59.8, though in its past five outings overall, it is getting outscored by nearly 7 ppg (66.8-73.6).
Georgia Tech beat Miami 78-68 as a three-point home pup last season, ending a 4-0 SU and ATS run by the Hurricanes in this rivalry. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings, and the SU winner has covered the last six in a row.
The Yellow Jackets are on ATS rolls of 15-6 overall, 8-3 on the highway, 9-4 in the ACC, 4-1 after a non-cover, 11-5 after a SU win and 13-6 against winning teams. On the flip side, the ‘Canes are on ATS slides of 2-6 overall, 3-9 in conference action, 2-6 against winning teams and 1-5 after a spread-cover.
The under is on runs of 7-3 for Georgia Tech in the ACC and 4-0 for Miami after an ATS win, but the over is on upticks for the Jackets of 4-1 on Wednesday, 5-2 against winning teams and 7-3 after a non-cover, and the over is 3-1-1 in Miami’s last five games following a SU loss. In addition, the total has gone high in five of the last seven meetings in this rivalry.

ATS ADVANTAGE: GEORGIA TECH


UConn (14-9, 8-13 ATS) at (2) Syracuse (23-1, 15-5 ATS)
Scorching-hot Syracuse looks to keep its Big East regular-season title hopes on track when it takes on the sliding Huskies at the Carrier Dome.
Syracuse won 11 in a row to start the season and is now on a 10-game SU tear (8-2 ATS) after Sunday’s 71-54 victory at Cincinnati as a four-point chalk. The Orange are the No. 1 team in the nation in field-goal shooting, making an eye-popping 53.1 percent of their shots, and are seventh nationally in scoring 82 ppg, while yielding just 64.1. At home, Jim Boeheim’s troops outscore opponents by 21.6 ppg (83.7-62.1).
Connecticut topped DePaul 64-57 Saturday to end a 2-6 SU skid, but came up short as a hefty 15½-point home chalk in taking its fourth straight ATS loss. The Huskies are getting outscored on the road by an average of nearly eight points per game (74.8-67.2), shooting just 25.8 percent from three-point range. However, their defense allows just 38.3 percent shooting from the floor overall (12th).
The last clash between these rivals was a memorable one in the Big East tournament last year at Madison Square Garden, with Syracuse claiming a 127-117 victory as a 5½-point pup in a six-overtime thriller, the second-longest game in Division I history. Prior to that, UConn had won and covered two in a row against Syracuse, following a 3-1 SU and ATS run by the Orange. In fact, the SU winner has cashed in each of the last 23 clashes between these two.
The Orange, who are the third-best spread-covering team in the nation, is on ATS sprees of 24-7 overall, 19-7 at the Carrier Dome, 16-5 in the Big East, 4-0 on Wednesday, 20-6 against winning teams, 20-7 after a SU win and 16-6 after an ATS. The Huskies are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 Wednesday starts and 5-1 ATS in their last six after a SU win, but they carry negative ATS streaks of 2-6 overall, 2-5 on the road, 0-4 in conference play, 1-6 after a non-cover and 2-5 against winning teams.
Syracuse is on “under” surges of 4-0 overall (all in the Big East), 5-1 after a spread-cover, 4-1 on Wednesday and 11-5 against winning teams. Likewise, UConn is on “under” runs of 9-4 on the road, 4-0 on Wednesday, 6-2 after a non-cover and 11-5 against winning teams.
Finally, in this rivalry, the total has stayed low in 11 of the last 16 meetings overall and five of the last seven in Syracuse. Even last year’s six-OT affair stayed under the posted price of 145½ at the end of regulation, with the two teams tied at 71.

ATS ADVANTAGE: SYRACUSE and UNDER


(8) Duke (19-4, 14-8 ATS) at North Carolina (13-10, 7-14 ATS)
The defending national champion Tar Heels, in the process of playing themselves out of the NCAA Tournament, look to regain some traction at the Dean Smith Center against archrival Duke.
North Carolina got hammered at Maryland on Sunday, losing 92-71 as a six-point pup for its third consecutive SU and ATS setback, and the Heels are now 1-6 SU and ATS in their last seven starts – all in ACC action – scoring 71 or less in all seven defeats. Roy Williams’ squad is averaging 80 ppg and allowing 73.9 for the season, but over the past seven games, Carolina has been outscored by an average of 8.5 points, allowing 77.4 and netting just 68.9.
The one positive for the Tar Heels is that they average 39.5 rebounds per game, fifth in the country and an average of 8½ more than their opponents.
Duke edged Boston College 66-63 Saturday as an eight-point road chalk, notching its fourth SU win in the last five games (3-2 ATS). The Blue Devils are ripping off 81.4 ppg on average (ninth), while allowing 63 ppg, and they are really getting it done both offensively and defensively from beyond the three-point line. Duke hits 39 percent from long distance (24th) and holds opponents to just 28.5 percent from beyond the arc (ninth).
Carolina is 6-1 SU and 5-2 ATS in the last seven clashes in this Tobacco Road rivalry. The Tar Heels swept last year’s meetings, rolling 101-87 as a two-point road favorite, then winning 79-71 at home, but falling just short as an 8½-point chalk. Carolina is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings, the underdog is 13-4 ATS in the last 17 matchups and the road team has cashed in four straight.
The Tar Heels are on a 30-10-1 ATS tear following a SU loss, but along with their current 1-6 ATS skid, they are in pointspread funks of 1-6 against winning teams, 1-5 at home, 1-5 on Wednesday, 1-4 after a non-cover and a dismal 7-22 in the ACC. The Blue Devils, meanwhile, are on ATS upswings of 5-0 after a non-cover, 5-2 on Wednesday and 5-2 in the ACC, but they’ve failed to cover in four of their last five road games.
The under for North Carolina is on streaks of 7-1 overall, 4-0 at the Dean Dome, 8-1 in the ACC, 7-1 after a SU loss and 5-1 after a non-cover, and the total has remained low in 11 of Duke’s last 15 Wednesday outings and 23 of its last 32 ACC tilts. The over, though, is on identical 6-2 runs for both squads when facing winning teams. Plus, in this rivalry, the total has cleared the posted price in six of the last eight clashes overall and six of the last eight battles in Chapel Hill.

ATS ADVANTAGE: OVER


(15) New Mexico (21-3, 15-7-1 ATS) at (23) UNLV (19-4, 15-6 ATS)
Two surging teams from the Mountain West Conference collide when the Lobos travel to the Thomas & Mack Center seeking revenge against UNLV.
Since suffering a 12-point home loss to UNLV on Jan. 9, New Mexico has peeled off seven consecutive victories (5-2 ATS), including Saturday’s 88-86 overtime win against San Diego State giving seven points at home. Despite the narrow victory over San Diego State, the Lobos are still outscoring opponents by nearly 13 ppg over the past five contests (78.4-65.8). During this stretch, Steve Alford’s squad is shooting 40.6 percent from three-point range while allowing just 33.9 percent from long distance.
The Rebels led by as many as 29 points Saturday against 12th-ranked BYU in coasting to an 88-74 home victory as a two-point favorite for its fifth straight win and seventh victory in the last eight games (6-2 ATS). UNLV has been killing it from the field during its five-game win streak shooting 53.8 percent while allowing just 39 percent from their opponents. In doing so, Lon Kruger’s club has outscored its foes by nearly 14 ppg (77.0-63.2) over the past five outings.
UNLV posted a 74-62 upset as a five-point pup at The Pit in the aforementioned Jan. 9 clash between these two, cashing for the second straight time in this rivalry (both on the road). In fact, the road team has covered in the last three clashes, and New Mexico is 5-2 ATS on its last seven trips to Las Vegas. In addition, the underdog has cashed in six of the last eight meetings.
The Lobos are on pointspread surges of 4-1 overall (all in the MWC), 19-7-1 in Wednesday contests and 9-4 against winning teams. The Rebels, who rank fifth in the nation’s pointspread standings, are on a bundle of spread-covering sprees, including 4-1 overall (all in conference play), 7-0 on Wednesday, 6-0 against winning teams, 8-1 at home against teams with a winning road record and 7-3 following a SU win.
New Mexico is on “under” streaks of 7-2-1 overall, 3-0-1 on the road, 3-0-1 after a non-cover, 6-2-1 after a SU win and 8-2-1 in conference action. Conversely, UNLV is on “over” tears of 5-2 overall, 4-1 at home, 5-2 in the Mountain West, 4-1 after a spread-cover, 5-2 after a SU win and 5-2 in Wednesday affairs.
Finally, the total has stayed low in three of the last four meetings between these teams, following a four-game “over” run.

ATS ADVANTAGE: UNLV


NBA

Boston (32-17, 19-29-1 ATS) at New Orleans (27-25, 25-27 ATS)
The Celtics will try to get back on the winning track when they visit New Orleans Arena for a matchup with the struggling Hornets.
Boston has been off since a 96-89 home loss to Orlando on Sunday, failing to cover as a three-point favorite, its third-straight non-cover. Rajon Rondo had 17 points, nine assists and eight rebounds, but no other Celtic managed more than 14 points. The loss snapped a three-game, straight-up winning streak (1-2 ATS) for Boston, which is 17-8 (13-12 ATS) on the highway this season.
New Orleans has dropped four of five overall (2-3 ATS), including Monday’s 123-117 loss in Orlando, though it cashed as a 9½-point underdog. The Hornets have lost four straight at home (SU and ATS), including Friday’s ugly 101-94 setback to the lowly Sixers as a 2½-point favorite. New Orleans, which is playing without injured point guard Chris Paul, has allowed the opposition to average 107 points on 51.9 percent shooting over the last five games.
Boston won the lone matchup this season with the Hornets on Nov. 1, prevailing 97-87 but coming up short as an 11-point home favorite. The Celtics have won four in a row (3-1 ATS) in this series and seven of the last 10 (6-4 ATS). The favorite is 5-1 ATS sin the last six matchups.
The Celtics are 15-7 ATS in their last 22 games against Southwest Division teams and 17-8-1 ATS in their last 26 road games against teams with a winning home record, but they are on ATS slides of 2-9-1 overall, 0-6-1 against Western Conference teams and 1-6-1 after a non-cover. New Orleans has failed to cover in any of its last six at home but it is 22-7 ATS in its last 29 at home against teams with winning road records and 15-5 ATS in its last 20 against winning teams.
Boston has stayed below the posted total in four of five overall and nine of 12 against teams with a winning record, but it is on “over” runs of 20-9 after a straight-up loss and 18-7-1 after getting two days off. The Hornets have stayed below the total in 45 of 67 home games against teams with winning road records, but they are on “over” streaks of 4-0 overall, 4-1 at home, 6-1 after getting a day off and 4-1 after a spread-cover.
In this series, the under has been the play in three straight and six of the last nine.

ATS ADVANTAGE: UNDER


Portland (30-24, 28-25-1 ATS) at Phoenix (31-21, 28-24 ATS)
The Suns will try to make it six straight victories when they welcome the Trail Blazers to the US Airways Center.
Portland fell 89-77 at home Tuesday against Oklahoma City, failing to cash as a 1½-point home underdog, shooting just 40.3 percent from the floor. The Blazers are a mediocre 12-13 (15-10 ATS) on the highway this season, where they average just 95.5 ppg on 45.3 percent shooting.
The Suns returns home following a four-game SU and ATS sweep of Western Conference road trip, wrapping it up with Friday’s 114-102 win in Sacramento, cashing as a 2½-point chalk. All five starters reached double figures in scoring, with Amare Stoudemire leading the charge with 30 points and nine rebounds. Phoenix has reached triple digits in 11 straight games and 23 of its last 24. The Suns have averaged 111.8 points a game over the last five, shooting a stellar 50.5 percent from the floor.
The Blazers have won three straight in this series, including a 105-102 victory as a 1½-point favorite on Dec. 17 matchup in Portland. The home team has won each of the last six meetings (5-1 ATS) and the favorite is 18-7-1 ATS in the last 26 overall. Phoenix has cashed in 23 of the last 35 series matchups, including 12 of the last 17 in the desert.
Portland is on ATS runs of 13-3 when playing the second night of a back-to-back, 4-1 as a road ‘dog, 5-1 on the road and 5-1 as a road ‘dog of between five and 10½-points. The Suns have cashed in five straight against Western Conference teams and four of five on Wednesday, but they are on ATS slides of 2-5 at home and 2-10-1 after getting three or more days off.
The Blazers are on a plethora of “over” streaks, including 7-4 overall, 8-3 against Western Conference teams, 12-2 on the road against teams with a winning record, 5-0 as a road ‘dog and 7-1 on the second night of a back-to-back. Phoenix is on “over” tears of 28-11 on Wednesday and 12-5 against Western Conference teams, but the under is 5-2 in its last seven at home.
Finally, the “over” is 4-1 in the last five head-to-head between these squads and 7-3 in the last 10 played in Phoenix.

ATS ADVANTAGE: PHOENIX and OVER


L.A. Lakers (40-13, 24-27-2 ATS) at Utah (32-18, 30-17-3 ATS)
The red-hot Jazz will try to make it 10 straight wins when they host the rival Lakers inside EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City.
Los Angeles has won seven of its last nine overall (5-3-1 ATS), including its last two without All-Star guard Kobe Bryant, who is listed as doubtful for tonight’s matchup because of an ankle injury. The Lakers crushed San Antonio 101-89 on Monday as 2½-point home favorites, getting 21 points and 19 rebounds from Pau Gasol and 16 points and 10 rebounds from Lamar Odom. L.A. is 15-9 on the road this season but just 10-13-1 at the betting window.
Utah made it nine straight wins with Tuesday’s 109-99 come-from-behind victory in Los Angeles against the Clippers, cashing as five-point road favorites as it got 34 points and 14 rebounds from Carlos Boozer. The Jazz have been lighting up the scoreboard lately, reaching triple digits in 11 straight contests, including averaging 109 points and 53.6 percent shooting in their last five heading into Tuesday’s game against the Clippers. Utah has won 10 straight home games (7-1-2 ATS) and gone 22-6 (18-8-2 ATS) in front of the Salt Lake City faithful this season.
The home team has won nine of the last 10 series matchups between these teams (7-3 ATS), including both games this season. The Jazz scored a 102-94 home win back on Dec. 12 as two-point favorites, just three days after losing 101-77 in Los Angeles as a 10½-point pup. Going back farther, the host has cashed in 17 of the last 25 series clashes.
The Lakers are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six roadies, but otherwise they’re on pointspread slides of 1-5 against Northwest Division teams and 2-7-1 on the highway against teams with a winning home mark. It’s nothing but positive ATS runs for Utah, including 15-4-2 at home, 19-7-3 overall, 4-0-1 on the second night of a back-to-back, 33-16-3 at home against teams with winning road records and 4-0 on Wednesday.
Los Angeles is on a host of “under” runs, including 5-2 overall, 13-6 against Northwest Division teams, 4-0 on the road and 5-0 against teams with a winning record. On the flip side, the Jazz have topped the total in eight of 11 overall and five of six on the second night of a back-to-back, but they are on “under” runs of 5-0 against teams with a winning record and 4-2 against Pacific Division opponents. Also, the under has cashed in five straight Jazz-Lakers battles.

ATS ADVANTAGE: UTAH and UNDER

4* SOUTHERN MISS over TULSA

In cashing an easy 4* ticket on Saturday behind Larry Eustachy and his scrappy Golden Eagles, we noted how their style of play brings almost no sex appeal to the marketplace, and as such no real line adjustments despite their outstanding recent run. We can repeat that same mantra to set this one up.

Southern Miss is playing ferocious defense, holding seven straight Conference USA opponents to less than 60 points, and going 6-1 ATS in those games. And while the SU tally was only 4-3, look at the defeats – they fell at U.T.E.P. and U.A.B., and at home vs. Memphis, by a combined 10 points. The polish is not quite there offensively to finish against that class of competition but the defense goes hard for the full 40 minutes regardless, and on a current 4-0 run, including that outright win at Houston on Saturday, the confidence is at a high level all the way around. We can start with Eustachy - “It says a lot about our players. I don’t think we’ve scratched the surface as a team. We’re going to run out of time. All of them can get so much better. The hand they were dealt by the conference (four league road games in the first six) was ridiculous and they handled it well. We can play a lot better than we did at Houston, but we found a way to win.”

The fact that they are only building momentum, and nowhere near a peak, is a mindset that we like to see, and Sai’Quon Stone continues that theme - “We haven’t been successful yet and we haven’t been successful in our coach’s mind. He’s been instilling that into the rest of players and that makes us more hungry. We haven’t done anything yet and we haven’t earned anything.” And part of that surge comes from the physical play of Torye Pelham inside, who had 13 rebounds in only 22 minutes at Houston (from Stone - ”He’s been relentless for us the last four or five weeks”). They are 4-1 SU since he came back from injury, losing only at U.A.B. by a single point.

Southern Miss is only allowing 40.2 percent from the field and 27.6 from 3-point range in CUSA play, winning the battle of the boards by 39, and only allowing 73 assists through eight games. That are the epitome of a “tough out”, and not only do the Eagles hang around the entire way here, but the outright upset is absolutely in range. While they are playing their best basketball of the season, Tulsa has fallen into a funk. When Southern had to open against the CUSA elite the Golden Hurricanes had a softer early ride, but in stepping up in class the past two weeks they fell by 10 at U.A.B. and 14 at U.T.E.P., and they have only managed a 5-11 ATS tally in the role of the favorite this season. They have also not played well at all when forced into a slower pace, going just 1-8-1 ATS in games in which neither they nor their opponents scored more than 75 points. And now there are distraction issues as well, with Saturday night’s nationally televised home game vs. Memphis looming too large on the horizon – it is both “Legends Weekend” and a “Hoops for Haiti” white-out promotion, and for a team that does not get that kind of showcase often it makes the task of getting past this challenge even more difficult.
