01-02-20 | Tennessee -1.5 v. Indiana | Top | 23-22 | Loss | -110 | 221 h 33 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #293 Tennessee Volunteers over Indiana Hoosiers (Gator Bowl, 7p.m., Thursday, January 2 ESPN) Tennessee has had a remarkable turnaround winning 5 straight games to close out the regular season and get the fan base back on board. Both teams have a lot of experience, but I believe the best unit on the field will be the Tennessee defense. Tennessee is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games against Big 10 teams. Their last 3 bowl appearances have come against Big 10 teams and they have won those games by 17, 39, and 14 points. Indiana did not finish the season well, losing 2 of their last 3 games with only a 3 point victory against Purdue during this span. |

01-01-20 | Wisconsin -2.5 v. Oregon | 27-28 | Loss | -110 | 195 h 44 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #267 Wisconsin Badgers over Oregon Ducks (Rose Bowl, 5p.m., Wednesday, January 1 ESPN) The Badgers being favored in this game tells me we are on the right side. Just not a fan of Mario Cristobal as a game coach. He is a great recruiter but never seems to get over the hump and have a truly great season. QB Just Herbert is in a similar boat, as he looks the part but never seems to put it together for 60 minutes. Wisconsin has been playing the way Oregon wants to play for the last 30 years. RB Jonathan Taylor is the best player on the field, and he wants to go out with a bang! Wisconsin is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 bowl games. Oregon is 5-14 ATS in their last 19 games following an ATS win in their previous game. |

01-01-20 | Predators v. Stars -115 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 3 h 43 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #050. Take Dallas over Nashville (Wednesday at 2:05 pm). As per your selection on Dallas, you have to like the way the Stars come into this game, winners of two straight against two good teams in Colorado and Arizona. The Stars are one of the best defensive teams in the league, ranking second in goals against per game with just 2.48. In an outdoor game, which are typically low scoring, you need to back a team that can play good defense as the play is typically sloppy and choppy because of the ice and elements. Nashville has had a tough go lately, losing B2B games against Pitss while giving up 11 goals in the process. We'll take the "home team" and the team in better form heading into this game to help us cash a ticket. |

12-31-19 | Canadiens v. Hurricanes -164 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #032. Take Carolina over Montreal (Tuesday at 7:05 pm) As per your selection on Carolina, we like them to get a good win in this spot as they are coming off a good win against Washington and now get to stay home with two days of rest and take on a Montreal team that's been leaking goals of late, losing three of their last four while giving up 15 goals in the process. This is also Montreal's last game on their seven-game road trip and as is natural, they are anxious to get home and start the New Year with a three-game homestand. Carolina has been great at home this year posting an 11-6 record and with rest, and the home crowd behind them, we'll back Carolina to get us this win and cash our ticket. |

12-31-19 | Clippers v. Kings +8 | Top | 105-87 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 39 m | Show |
The Kings have lost seven straight. They have been deceptively competitive during this stretch, however, despite a lack of covers. They have lost by double-digits only once during that stretch. During the dog days of the NBA season bad teams can take games off and you never know when it will happen. But the Kings are in desperation mode to stop this losing streak, and a win over the Clippers could really put that bad stretch in the rearview mirror. The Clippers have been dealing with the flu bug. That is normally an overhyped angle for handicapping because these guys are professionals and can play through it. But for a team like the Clippers that doesn’t really care about the regular season, they might not give their all here. And Pat Beverley is out here, and he is kind of the sparkplug for this team and a leader that doesn’t get the credit he deserves. We think that hurts the favorite tonight. LA’s last five opponents: Houston, San Antonio, OKC, LA Lakers, and Utah. This Kings team on a seven-game losing streak isn’t going to really move the needle for them. And we think this spread has been inflated as well. |
|||||||
12-31-19 | Miami-FL v. Clemson -2 | 73-68 | Loss | -116 | 5 h 53 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #798 Clemson over Miami (4p.m., Tuesday, December 31 ACCN) Clemson has underachieved during the nonconference portion of the season but they still have talent. Being the favorite in this game tells me that this is the correct side to take. Miami has not played the schedule that Clemson has, and they have only played one conference game thus far. The home team is 5-0 ATS (1 push) in the last 6 games between Miami and Clemson. The Tigers are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games. Miami is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games. |
|||||||
12-31-19 | Kentucky v. Virginia Tech -2.5 | 37-30 | Loss | -105 | 166 h 35 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #292 Virginia Tech Hokies over Kentucky Wildcats (Belk Bowl, 12p.m., Tuesday, December 31 ESPN) Mark Stoops was getting some publicity for the Florida State job but that would have been an uninspiring hire. Kentucky is not any good this year and they had one of the worst passing offenses in the country. They were floundering for most of the season before getting better down the stretch winning 3 straight game. 2 of those wins came against terrible teams, but they did beat Louisville in their regular season finale. They have quarterback that struggles to throw the football and you can bet Bud Foster will make the Wildcats beat them through the air. Virginia Tech had an up and down season, but they did win 8 games and are a much more balanced team. They lost last time out to Virginia and that prevented them from playing in the ACC Championship. But it also keep them fresh and healthy by avoiding Clemson and they will be ready to make a big statement in this game. This will be the last game for Bud Foster, and he has just as much respect as most head coaches in the country. The players and coaches want to send him out with a victory. Virginia Tech is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games. Kentucky is 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games after allowing more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game. Lay the points and play Virginia Tech. |

12-30-19 | Chicago State +33.5 v. Missouri | 33-91 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take Chicago State over Missouri (8p.m., Monday, December 30 SECN+) Only one time has Missouri covered this big of a spread in their 11 games played this season. They are only averaging 65.9 points per game and unless they go way over that tonight, it is almost impossible to cover this big of a spread. The Cougars have covered the spread in 4 of their last 5 games. Missouri is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |
|||||||
12-30-19 | Hawks v. Magic UNDER 209 | Top | 101-93 | Win | 100 | 6 h 5 m | Show |
Young is out for the Hawks again and this team has really struggled on the offensive end. They have scored in the 80s in their last two games, which is almost impossible in the present-day NBA. Orlando is one of the better defensive teams in the NBA and has held two of their last three opponents under the century mark. We don’t see the Hawks achieving their offensive goals in this one, and this game looks like a potential blowout, and we don’t think the Hawks will be able to do enough to do their share for the total. |
|||||||
12-30-19 | Illinois +7 v. California | 20-35 | Loss | -115 | 146 h 41 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #249 Illinois Fighting Illini over California Golden Bears (Redbox Bowl, 4p.m., Monday, December 30 FOX) Lovie Smith was close to being fired but turned it around in 2019 to qualify for a bowl game. Cal had a hot start to the season but faded during conference play losing 5 of their last 8 games down the stretch. This game is being played in Santa Clara but the Bears to not travel well and Illinois is excited to be here. Cal is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games. Illinois is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall. |
|||||||
12-29-19 | Titans v. Texans +4 | 35-14 | Loss | -110 | 122 h 57 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #102 Houston Texans over Tennessee Titans (4:25p.m., Sunday, December 29 CBS) Nothing seems predictable in the AFC South. This game obviously means more to the Titans, as a victory will guarantee them a spot in the playoffs. Houston just beat this team earlier in the season and feel they can keep this game close at home despite resting some key personal. Tennessee is 4-12 ATS (1 push) in their last 17 games against Houston. |
|||||||
12-29-19 | Raiders +3.5 v. Broncos | 15-16 | Win | 100 | 122 h 56 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #131 Oakland Raiders over Denver Broncos (4:25p.m., Sunday, December 29 CBS) We will grab the points in this game, as the Raiders still have an outside chance to make the playoffs. Raiders played one of their best games of the season last week against the Chargers, a better team than they will face on Sunday. Oakland won the first meeting by 8 points and I do not see them getting blown out in this game. Denver had trouble putting away the Lions last week and just should not be favored by this many points against anyone in the league. Oakland has covered the spread 4 straight games against Denver. The Broncos are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games against AFC West teams. |
|||||||
12-29-19 | Kansas v. Stanford +6.5 | 72-56 | Loss | -103 | 4 h 47 m | Show | |
5 Unit Play. Take #868 Stanford over Kansas (12p.m., Sunday, December 29 ABC) The Cardinal are for real this season and they are an NCAA Tournament team. We will grab the points in this game as it is a true road game for the Jayhawks. Stanford lost in overtime to Kansas last year in Lawrence and I just do not see them getting run out of the building today in Stanford, CA. Kansas is 5-16 ATS in their last 21 road games. Stanford is 25-8 ATS in their last 33 home games. |
|||||||
12-29-19 | Chargers v. Chiefs -8 | 21-31 | Win | 100 | 119 h 31 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #126 Kansas City Chiefs over Los Angeles Chargers (1p.m., Sunday, December 29 CBS) The Phillip Rivers era as the starting quarterback of the Chargers will likely come to an end on Sunday. The Chargers have been one of the most disappointing teams in the league this season and will finish out the season losing 6 of their last 7 games. Kansas City has dominated this series winning 10 of the last 11 games against Los Angeles (8-3 ATS). The Chiefs still have a chance to earn a first round bye and thus their will be no let-up in this game from start to finish. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Jazz +9 v. Clippers | 120-107 | Win | 100 | 10 h 36 m | Show | |
Even though the Clippers have had a couple days off after the big Christmas win against the Lakers, we still think this is a letdown spot after that big game. The players just tried to brush that one off like just another game, but they aren’t fooling anyone as that was probably the biggest game in the NBA thus far this season. Now they face a Utah team that is quietly playing much better. They seem to have found their game late like last year, and we expect a competitive game here. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Coyotes v. Golden Knights -135 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 11 h 34 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #071. Take Vegas -135 over Arizona (Saturday at 10:05 pm). We are still traveling for the holidays so no time for a lengthy write up. As per your selection on Vegas, we believe this is a great spot for them out of the break to snap their two-game losing streak against an Arizona team that has alternated wins and losses since Dec 5. Arizona figures to come crashing back down to earth in the back half of the season as they are playing well above their pay grade and as Vegas has such a good home-ice advantage, we'll take the better goalie and better overall team to get the win tonight and cash a ticket for us. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Pacific v. Cal-Irvine OVER 127 | 56-69 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 31 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #670 Over 128 in Pacific @ UC Irvine (10p.m., Saturday, December 28) Pacific has gone over the posted total 4 of their last 5 games as a road underdog. UC Irvine has gone over the posted total in 7 of their last 8 games when they are favored to win the game. They have also gone over the posted total in 4 of their last 5 games played on Saturday. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Suns v. Kings -2 | 112-110 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 11 m | Show | |
Just think this is a bad spot for the Suns coming in on a back-to-back, and they didn’t look any good last night in a loss to the Warriors. Now they face a much better team in Sacramento and a Kings team that had the night off. The Kings have been struggling with five straight losses and no covers, but those games have been more competitive than it seemed, and they were on the road a bunch, too. We like them to get back on the winning track tonight. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Pistons v. Spurs -5 | 109-136 | Win | 100 | 8 h 36 m | Show | |
The Spurs have been alternating wins and losses for about a month, and this team can’t seem to get anything together. But they are coming off a loss so should be in a good bounce back spot here (4-0-1 ATS after a loss) and they have covered in four of their last five overall. Detroit is 4-10 on the road this season. It’s understandable the oddsmakers can’t make this line bigger for San Antonio, but we see value here as we think this is a good spot for the home team. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Mavs v. Warriors +11 | 141-121 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
There is really no pressure on the Warriors right now. They are playing free and loose. And they have been playing well, winning four straight. They come in on a back-to-back after a win vs. the Suns last night. But this is just too many points. Luka Doncic is just getting back into the groove with the Mavs after injury, and we don’t think Dallas will bring their A Game today against a Warriors team playing with a lot of confidence. The Mavs win, but Golden State keeps it within double digits. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Clemson -2 v. Ohio State | 29-23 | Win | 100 | 102 h 2 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #243 Clemson Tigers over Ohio State Buckeyes (Fiesta Bowl, 8p.m., Saturday, December 28 ESPN) Not much you can find to not like about either of these teams. Just feel Clemson is favored for a reason and they have been in a competitive game this season, something that cannot be said for Ohio State. Clemson has the more experienced coaching staff and they have covered the spread in 18 of their last 21 games. Clemson is the defending National Champion and they can play the no respect card since they were awarded the No. 3 seed despite winning 27 straight games. Clemson is 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games. Ohio State is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against ACC teams. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Hawks v. Bulls UNDER 216.5 | 81-116 | Win | 100 | 7 h 5 m | Show | |
Trae Young is likely out here and the Hawks are coming in on a back-to-back and we don’t see them doing anything special on offense tonight. The Chicago defense has been really playing well lately and the Hawks aren’t good offensively anyways, on average, and we expect them to struggle tonight. We think there’s a good chance they will struggle to hit the century mark, or maybe just make it, and this one should go way under no problem. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Pacers -1 v. Pelicans | 98-120 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 5 m | Show | |
The Pelicans have been playing better lately and the Pacers are coming in on a back-to-back, but we think the oddsmakers have way overadjusted this line. We had this one handicapped at Indiana -4 as they are by far the superior team, and even though they lost a tough one at Miami last night we expect them to come into this one determined and play to win here. The Pacers won both meetings last season when the Pelicans had a better team. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Louisville v. Kentucky -2 | 70-78 | Win | 100 | 4 h 17 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #630 Kentucky -2 over Louisville (3:45p.m., Saturday, December 28 CBS) Kentucky needs this game in a big way. They have been struggling of late but playing at home in Rupp Arena should be able to get them back on track. Both teams struggle at times on offensive, but Kentucky has had success in this match-up over the years. The favorite is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings between Louisville and Kentucky. Whoever shots the ball better will win this game and I expect that to be Kentucky. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Wisconsin +4 v. Tennessee | 68-48 | Win | 100 | 2 h 3 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #609 Wisconsin +3.5 over Tennessee (1:30 p.m., Saturday, December 28 CBS) Both teams are fringe NCAA Tournament teams. Wisconsin got a lift with the eligibility of Micah Potter at the end of the first semester and they should be able to take this game down to the wire and win it straight-up. Tennessee already has lost to Florida State, Memphis, and Cincinnati and their resume is lacking for quality wins. Tennessee is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against teams with a winning record. |
|||||||
12-28-19 | Long Beach State v. Florida OVER 136.5 | 63-102 | Win | 100 | 1 h 34 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #606 Over 136.5 in Long Beach State @ Florida (12p.m., Saturday, December 28 SECN) The Beach has gone over the posed total in 6 of their last 7 games as a road underdog. Florida has gone over the posted total in 5 of their last 6 games overall. Expect score by both teams and we will not worry if Florida can cover this big number and just collect with the over. |
|||||||
12-27-19 | Kings v. Sharks -140 | 3-2 | Loss | -140 | 12 h 41 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #054. Take San Joses -145 over Los Angeles (Friday at 10:05 pm). We are still traveling for the holidays so no time for a lengthy write up. We believe this is a great spot for the Sharks to get a much-needed win out of the break to snap a three-game losing skid. The Sharks have been done in by three good teams in their losses and now get to take on a LA team who has also lost three straight and that is among th worst teams in the league in offensive and defensive categories. The Sharks will feed off the home ice energy and w'ell take them at a short price to continue their 7-2-1 dominance of the Kings over the last 10 meetings. |
|||||||
12-27-19 | USC +2 v. Iowa | 24-49 | Loss | -108 | 78 h 48 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #233 USC Trojans over Iowa Hawkeyes (Holiday Bowl, 8p.m., Friday, December 27 FS1) Clay Helton lives to coach another year and the Trojans had a pretty good season despite injuries and a brutal schedule. Just not a fan of Iowa this season on the offensive side of the football. QB Nate Stanley is just not a big-time player and Iowa did not perform well against the top teams on their schedule. USC had a nice finish to the season winning 3 straight games (2 road games) and this team wants Clay Helton as their coach despite the fan base and media. USC is 6-2 ATS (1 push) in their last 9 games against teams with a winning record. Iowa is 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games on grass. |
|||||||
12-27-19 | Cavs v. Celtics -13.5 | Top | 117-129 | Loss | -109 | 3 h 27 m | Show |
The Cavs have won three straight against lousy opponents, and make no mistake about it: this team isn’t any good. These teams played earlier in the month, in this same arena, and the Celtics won by 22 without barely breaking a sweat. Really don’t see any reason why this game would be different. The Celtics played on Christmas while the Cavs have had extra time off, but Boston is at home and had the day off yesterday. This team is playing its best basketball since two seasons ago and they shouldn’t take anything for granted after the disaster that was last season. They have some of the best coaching in the NBA, and we think they will come to play today. Boston has traditionally been one of the best betting teams in the league (you can point to the coaching as a reason). They have won and covered all but two games this month. They should dominate this one today. |
|||||||
12-27-19 | Michigan State v. Wake Forest +4 | 27-21 | Loss | -110 | 73 h 5 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #230 Wake Forest Demon Deacons over Michigan State Spartans (Pinstripe Bowl, 3:20p.m., Friday, December 27 ESPN) Michigan State has fallen back to a middle of the pack Big 10 teams and they do not warrant to be favored by anyone that qualifies for a bowl game. Wake Forest returns a ton of talent and I just do not believe their defense will be picked apart by Michigan State. The Spartans got to play to terrible teams to close out the regular season but prior to that they lost 5 straight games and they were only competitive in one of those 5 losses. Wake Forest finished poorly down the stretch, but they have the edge in offense and special teams and will win this game straight-up. Michigan State is 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games. Wake Forest is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 bowl games. |
|||||||
12-26-19 | Blazers v. Jazz -5.5 | Top | 115-121 | Win | 100 | 10 h 55 m | Show |
Utah has gotten off to another slow start this season, as they did last season, but they turned it around last year and we are starting to see the signs it’s happening again as they have won five of six. Portland has won four of five also, but they have played a home-heavy schedule. They are 6-10 on the road this season while Utah is 11-3 at home. Portland is 1-5 ATS in their last six as an underdog, and when they are getting beat in these situations it’s normally well beyond the spread. Utah is just the better team despite the slow start and they have one of the best home-court advantages in the NBA. We think they roll tonight with a comfortable 7+-point win. |
|||||||
12-26-19 | Knicks v. Nets OVER 224 | 94-82 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 56 m | Show | |
The Knicks are trending to the over with a 4-1 run for the over in their last five games. This team struggled to get over the century mark a month ago but their offense is flourishing under new coaching. But coaching hasn’t done much for the defense as they have given up 120 or more in four straight games. We see the Nets scoring a bunch tonight and the Knicks will be able to do their part to get this one over the posted number. |
|||||||
12-26-19 | Miami-FL v. Louisiana Tech +6.5 | 0-14 | Win | 100 | 217 h 10 m | Show | |
2 Unit Play. Take #224 Louisiana Tech Bulldogs over Miami Hurricanes (Independence Bowl, Thursday, December 26 ESPN) Miami just is not what they once were and nobody can figure out how to get this program back to glory. They finished the season with two straight losses including a 10-point setback to Duke, a team that did not even quality for a bowl. Manny Diaz thought he had all the answers resigning from Temple after not even coaching a game. He has been humbled and already lost the fan base and former players. The Bulldogs had a good year and were in great shape before stumbling down the stretch losing 2 of their final 3 games. But they did rebound beating UTSA last time out and will be more excited to be in this game than Miami is. The Hurricanes are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 bowl games. The Bulldogs are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 bowl games. |
|||||||
12-25-19 | Clippers v. Lakers UNDER 223 | 111-106 | Win | 100 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
The Clippers have a clear injury sheet for the first time all season. When healthy and motivated, in our mind this is clearly the best team in the NBA. And they will be motivated tonight because of the opponent. Really shocked the Clips were installed as an underdog as we had them laying two points on our line. This team does not really care much about the regular season but this is one of a handful of games that they will be very motivated for. And the Clippers have had the Lakers number ever since the Griffin/CP3 years. |

12-25-19 | Rockets -10.5 v. Warriors | 104-116 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 54 m | Show | |
This Houston team got off to a slow start and there were some chemistry issues earlier in the season, but this team is now in midseason form and playing some of their best basketball of the season now. They have won four straight and covered in three straight, starting with the very impressive win over the Clippers in LA. This team will want to win tonight against the team that has been a thorn in their side for years despite the fact that this Golden State team is a shell of the team from the last few years. We think this one will be a blowout. The Rockets have now covered their last four on the road. |

12-23-19 | Packers +5 v. Vikings | 23-10 | Win | 100 | 149 h 23 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #481 Green Bay Packers over Minnesota Vikings (8:15p.m., Monday, December 23 ESPN) The final Monday Night Football game of the season is an NFC North rivalry. This game actually means more to Green Bay, as they have visions of the No. 2 seed and a bye. Even if Minnesota wins this game, they still will likely be a wildcard and thus I do not see them blowing out the Packers in this contest. Green Bay is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record. Minnesota is 4-13 ATS in their last 17 games against teams with a winning record. Expect a field goal game and we will collect with whoever comes out on top. |

12-23-19 | Canadiens v. Jets -118 | 6-2 | Loss | -118 | 9 h 8 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #024. Take Winnipeg over Montreal (Monday at 8:05 pm) As per your selection on the Winnipeg Jets, we believe they are in a great spot to return home after a good 6-0 win against Minnesota and extend their winning streak to 2 games. They take on a Montreal team who is coming off a hard-fought 4-3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers and will be thinking of the Christmas break as they are in the middle of a 7 game road trip as they head to Florida for two games and Carolina to end the year. The Habs are among the worst teams in terms of goals allowed per game and PK% which we believe the Jets will exploit on home ice. Look for Winnipeg to dominate the play and skate away to a good win before the break. |

12-23-19 | Georgia State +9 v. SMU | 76-85 | Push | 0 | 8 h 1 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #807 Georgia State over SMU (7p.m., Monday, December 23 ESPN3) The Mustangs are back home after two straight losses and I do not see a blowout in this game. SMU has lost two straight games and they do not have any quality wins on the season. Georgia State is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as an underdog. SMU is 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games as a home favorite. |

3 Unit Play. Take #475 Dallas Cowboys over Philadelphia Eagles (4:25p.m., Sunday, December 22 FOX) This is likely a winner take all game! If Dallas wins, they clinch the NFC East and will host a home game on wild card weekend. The Eagles have won two straight games, but they struggle to put away the Giants and Redskins. The Cowboys played their best game of the season last time out and they just have much more talent on offense than the Eagles do. Dallas blew out Philadelphia by 27 points earlier this season. The favorite is 7-1 ATS in the last 8 matchups. Philadelphia is 4-10 ATS in their last 14 home games. |
|||||||
12-22-19 | Mavs v. Raptors UNDER 218 | 107-110 | Win | 100 | 3 h 40 m | Show | |
This is a battle of two solid defensive teams and with an early Sunday matinee start time this will probably be a hard-fought defensive battle and this total seems a few points too high. Dallas has been an over team for most of the season, but the oddsmakers have overadjusted and we think there is value with this number today. Dallas held the Sixers under the century mark last time out on the road, and they should have some success defensively here as well. |
|||||||
12-22-19 | Giants +2.5 v. Redskins | 41-35 | Win | 100 | 118 h 9 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #465 New York Giants over Washington Redskins (1p.m., Sunday, December 22 FOX) Both teams played well last week with the Giants winning their game and the Redskins nearly knocking off Philadelphia. New York played their best game of the season against Washington back in September and I expect them to win this game as well straight-up regardless of who plays for them under center. New York is 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games against Washington. The Redskins are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. |
|||||||
12-22-19 | Panthers v. Colts -6.5 | 6-38 | Win | 100 | 118 h 9 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #472 Indianapolis Colts over Carolina Panthers (1p.m., Sunday, December 22 FOX) Carolina backdoor covered last week against Seattle and despite that late rally they have decided to bench their quarterback in Kyle Allen. The Colts will not be the playoffs either, but they have not quit like the Panthers have and expect them to go all out with a chance of finishing the season at 8-8. Indianapolis is 12-5 ATS (1 push) in their last 18 games against NFC teams. Carolina is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games against teams with a losing record. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Washington v. Boise State +3.5 | 38-7 | Loss | -106 | 101 h 41 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #216 Boise State Broncos over Washington Huskies (Las Vegas Bowl, 7:30p.m., Saturday, December 21 ABC) Chris Petersen has been a fixature at both schools and we will resign as head coach of the Washington Huskies after this game. Boise State just wins bowl games and they have won 3 of their last 4 bowl games including a victory in the Las Vegas Bowl two years ago. Washington did not have a good year finishing just 7-5 and did not beat any top teams in the country this season besides USC. Boise State is 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog. Washington is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 bowl games. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Lightning v. Capitals +101 | 1-3 | Win | 101 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #066. Take Washington over Tampa Bay (Saturday @ 7:05 pm) As per your selection on the Washington Capitals, we have no issues backing them on the second half of B2B nights as they are the better team in this matchup and will be amped up to get home and take on a good Tampa team. Washington owns a great 9-3-4 home record and already dispatched of Tampa just last week by a score of 5-2. Tampa has been extremely inconsistent this year, going 5-4-1 in their last 10 games after tying the NHL record last year in wins. There could also be a few issues lingering for the Bolts as they benched their star player Kucherov for a turnover and lack of effort. This is a tough spot for them as they are playing just their second road game since Dec 3, and we don't think they'll be up to the task tonight. Washington wins this one and sweeps the series vs the Bolts. |

12-21-19 | Kentucky v. Ohio State -2.5 | 65-71 | Win | 100 | 6 h 56 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #738 Ohio State -3 over Kentucky (5:15p.m., Saturday, December 21 CBS) Kentucky is really struggling to shoot the ball this year especially from the 3-point line. Ohio State got back on track last time out and expect them to win this game by 6-8 points. Kentucky just has not found the chemistry needed to be success this season at this point. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Bills v. Patriots -6 | 17-24 | Win | 100 | 98 h 40 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take #454 New England Patriots over Buffalo Bills (4:30p.m., Saturday, December 21 NFLN) This game appears big on paper but in reality that is not the case for the Bills. Even if Buffalo wins this game, New England still controls its own destiny to win the NFC East and would just have to beat the Dolphins in Week 17 at Foxboro. But the Patriots need a bye if they have any plans of doing damage in the playoffs this year. New England has beaten Buffalo 15 of the last 17 games at Gillette Stadium. The Patriots got well last week against the Bengals and will win this game by close to 10 points. New England is 42-19 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 63 home games. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Utah State v. Florida -3 | 65-62 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #718 Florida -3.5 over Utah State (2:30p.m., Saturday, December 21 FS1) Florida is always a tough team to beat inside the state and they need this game more than does Utah State. The Gators played their best game of the season last time out against Providence and expect them to follow that up with another impressive victory on Saturday. The Aggies struggled with USF last time out and this is a much tougher opponent. Utah State is 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games. Florida is 9-2 ATS in their last 11 neutral site games. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Purdue v. Butler -2 | Top | 61-70 | Win | 100 | 3 h 38 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #722 Butler -2 over Purdue (2:30p.m., Saturday, December 21 BTN) TOP COLLEGE HOOPS PLAY Purdue lost a ton of scoring last year when Carson Edwards left, and they will have trouble keeping pace with Butler in this game. The Bulldogs have a ton of quality wins this season included bating Stanford and Florida. Purdue beat Virginia but they have struggled in their other big games losing to Florida State, Texas, Marquette, and Nebraska. Butler is better than all 4 of those teams. Butler dominated Indiana last year before losing on a freak play to end the game and they have a bad taste in their month from that Crossroads Classic. Butler is 45-20 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 67 neutral site games. Purdue is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog. |
|||||||
12-21-19 | Texas v. Providence +1 | 48-70 | Win | 100 | 2 h 15 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #644 Providence (pk) over Texas (2p.m., Saturday, December 21 FOX) This line is begging you to take Texas, but we will not bite and take the Friars in a true home game. Texas has played a weak schedule thus far for their impressive record. |
|||||||
12-20-19 | Knicks v. Heat OVER 215.5 | 114-129 | Win | 100 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
The Knicks have been trending to the over with three of four going over. And we think it will go that way again tonight. This offense has been rejuvenated with the new coaching staff. This team had a hard time reaching the century mark for much of the season, but they scored 143 last time out against the Hawks. We won’t see an effort like that tonight against a stout Miami defense, but we do expect fluid scoring from both teams and think this one will get over 220. |
|||||||
12-20-19 | Grizzlies -2 v. Cavs | 107-114 | Loss | -102 | 6 h 8 m | Show | |
Two lousy teams here, but the Grizzlies are the better overall team and this is a very winnable game for them. The Grizzlies are 5-7 on the road while the Cavs are 4-10 at home this season, and there isn’t much of a home-court advantage here. The Grizzlies have covered in five of their last six games. This team is quietly playing well above expectations right now and providing value for bettors. This team is playing to win lately, and we think they will take this opportunity to bring their A Game against a lowly opponent. |
|||||||
12-19-19 | Rockets v. Clippers -5 | Top | 122-117 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
The Clippers are finally getting fully healthy and could very possibly have the full roster at their disposal tonight. This team has been kind of a work in progress with load management and injuries, but we think at full strength that this team is the best in the NBA. We think this is a game where they will want to flex their muscles a bit in front of a national audience. We think with these teams at their best, which we are likely to see tonight, that LA is the clear superior team. The Rockets have been winning, but they are overrated by the oddsmakers recently as they have covered in only one of their last five games. The Clippers, on the other hand, have covered in five of six and this team has been playing some of its best basketball of the season lately, a couple hiccups aside. Los Angeles doesn’t care much about the regular season, but this game for sure will be important for them and we think they put their best foot forward tonight in what we see as a comfortable win by the home team. |
|||||||
12-19-19 | Kings v. Blue Jackets -142 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 26 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #032 (5Dimes). Take Columbus -145 over Los Angeles (Thursday @ 7:05 pm). As per your selection on the Columbus Blue Jackets, we like the spot they are in and we believe they are going to win this game at home to push their home record to 10-8-1. The Jackets come into this game winner of two straight and now get to take on a Kings team who is on the tail end of a 6 game road trip as this is their fifth game. We know LA is thinking about getting home and after an emotional win against Boston last time out, we believe they will be due for a letdown against a pesky Columbus team. The Kings are just 9-24 in their last 33 vs the Eastern Conference and 7-18 in their last 18 Thursday games. The Jackets are 23-10 in their last 33 Thursday games and the favorite in this matchup is 21-6 over the last 27 H2H'S. Take Columbus. |
|||||||
12-18-19 | Michigan State v. Northwestern +12 | 77-72 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
5 Unit Play. Take #668 Northwestern over Michigan State (8p.m., Wednesday, December 18 BTN) The Big 10 home winning streak will likely end at tonight, but I do not see it being a blowout. The Wildcats have played better of late winning 3 of their last 5 games. Michigan State has been one of the most disappointing teams this season and they lack quality wins at this point of the season. Michigan State is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. Northwestern is 5-2 ATS (1 push) in their last 8 games as a home underdog. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |
|||||||
12-18-19 | Hornets +3 v. Cavs | Top | 98-100 | Win | 100 | 6 h 25 m | Show |
You have to look to play against the Cavs when they are favored against anyone this season. This is one of the worst teams in the NBA. They haven’t been favored many times this season but are 0-2 ATS when laying points. We think this is a very winnable game for the road team, who should have Batum back tonight. Charlotte has won and covered in four of their last five games. They are 5-1 ATS on the second half of a back-to-back, so the lack of rest doesn’t worry us too much tonight. |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Suns +13 v. Clippers | 99-120 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
The Clippers don’t care a lot about each game so it would be hard to lay this many points with them against a decent Phoenix squad. This team can beat anyone on any given day but they just don’t have a lot of motivation every night as we saw last time out in Chicago. This game was selling for very cheap tickets so locals aren’t too excited about it so why would the Clippers be, especially with the Rockets on deck on Thursday. We think the road team keeps this within single digits. |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Hurricanes v. Jets +109 | 6-3 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 46 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #014. Take Winnipeg over Carolina (Tuesday at 8:05 pm) As per your selection on Winnipeg, it appears the Jets have regained their form of two years ago when they went to the Western Conference Finals. The Jets are going for their six straight victory at home and we believe they get it as they come off a great 7-3 win and now have momentum heading into tonight's game. The Hurricanes are on the tail end of a 5 game road trip and they've just beat a good Calgary team 4-0. We don't believe they can pay two perfect games in a row which is why we side with the Jets in this one. |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Nets -2 v. Pelicans | 108-101 | Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
Despite consistently getting very generous lines from the oddsmakers, the Pelicans are one of the worst ATS teams in the NBA. They are getting too much credit from the bookies tonight for playing at home, and they face a hot Nets team tonight in another game that should not go great for them. Brooklyn has won four of their last six and covered in six of their last eight, and this is a team that is trending upwards after a slow start to the season. |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Hawks v. Knicks OVER 224.5 | 120-143 | Win | 100 | 7 h 41 m | Show | |
The Knicks offense has been playing better lately and they should be able to get plenty of points at home against one of the more porous defenses in the NBA. The Hawks give up nearly 118 points per game, and if the Knicks get anywhere close to that this one should fly over as this should be a close game and no blowout and both squads should get their points. The Hawks have gone over in four straight road games, and we see that trend continuing tonight. |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Florida -4.5 v. Providence | 83-51 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #629 Florida over Providence (7p.m., Tuesday, December 17 ESPN2) The Gators have not played up to their preseason ranking thus far in 2019-2020 but they still have talent. The Friars are in even worse shape having lost to a bunch of bad teams this year and will enter having won just 2 of their last 6 games. The Gators are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games as a favorite. Providence is 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |

12-17-19 | Ducks +125 v. Flyers | 1-4 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #001. Take Anaheim over Philadelphia (Tuesday at 7:05 pm) As per your selection on Anaheim, we believe this is a great spot for the Ducks to win their second game in a row against a Philly team that is banged up through injuries and that has lost three straight. The Ducks are off a 4-3 win against the Rangers and are rested having not played since Dec 14. Philly lost all three games on their western road trip giving up 14 goals while scoring just 5. Now they return home and we don't see them getting back in the win column. |
|||||||
12-16-19 | Avalanche +102 v. Blues | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 18 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #071. Take Colorado over St. Louis (Monday at 8:05 pm) As per your selection on Colorado, we feel that this is a great spot for them to do well as they come into this matchup with the Blues well-rested and riding a solid two-game winning streak. The Avs have also won 8 of their last nine games and we feel that as they get healthy they are going to be one of the top teams in the league (if they aren't already). We like the fact that the Avs have had 2 days off to rest up for this game and this game marks the start of a two-game Central road trip, so we know they want to start the trip off on a winning note. As for St. Louis, they are in the middle of a four-game homestand and as they come off a 4 goal comeback in their last game against Chicago, we can see a little complacency set in and they may not have a full effort tonight. We know Colorado is a great road team and we believe they will get the job done once again tonight. |
|||||||
12-16-19 | Wizards v. Pistons -5.5 | Top | 133-119 | Loss | -103 | 6 h 24 m | Show |
The Pistons are kind of under the radar right now but playing well, winning three of their last four, including a big win at Houston last time out. Even though they can be inconsistent, they are clearly the better team here, and they are facing a Washington team that has dropped seven of their last eight and already has no hope for the season. Even with some injury concerns tonight we expect this Detroit team to take care of business and stay hot. |
|||||||
12-16-19 | Kent State -2 v. Cal-Irvine | 68-74 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #837 Kent State over Cal Irvine (7p.m., Monday, December 16) The Anteaters have some bad losses on the season including to Detroit, Pepperdine, and & Cal Baptist. The Golden Flashes are off to an impressive start at 8-1 this season and they pounded Detroit by a score of 92-57. Kent State is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games overall. Expect them to win this game by 6-8 points. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |
|||||||
12-15-19 | Kings -3.5 v. Warriors | 100-79 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show | |
The Kings tend to bounce back well from a loss. They are 8-1 ATS in their last nine games after a loss. Before that loss last time out they had won three straight over playoff contenders and they lost in OT in San Antonio before that winning streak. That loss to the Knicks was a head-scratcher, but this is a young team that can be inconsistent. But we still think they are hot and playing well overall and we expect a big effort in a very winnable game tonight. |
|||||||
12-15-19 | Bills v. Steelers -1.5 | 17-10 | Loss | -115 | 126 h 29 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #322 Pittsburgh Steelers over Buffalo Bills (8:25p.m., Sunday, December 15 NBC) Just not sold on the Buffalo Bills and feel their record is mostly a byproduct of their schedule. Buffalo has struggled against the AFC North this season losing to the Browns and Ravens and only beating the Bengals by 4 points. This is the final home game for the Steelers, and it is a must win if they have visions of making the playoffs this season. Buffalo does not get many primetime games and I do not believe they will be up for the challenge in this game. Buffalo is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games. |
|||||||
12-15-19 | Rams v. Cowboys | 21-44 | Loss | -110 | 123 h 36 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #329 Los Angeles Rams over Dallas Cowboys (4:25p.m., Sunday, December 15 FOX) This line opened at -3.5 (Dallas) and has been bet down all week long and still is not where it should be. Dallas is terrible and is only being talked about because they play in the NFC East. This game does not mean much for the Cowboys and it will likely come down to them beating the Eagles on 12/22 to determine their playoff fate. We used the Rams are our top play last week and won easily against the Seahawks and now they face a much more dysfunctional team. The Rams are 8-1 ATS in their last 8 road games. Dallas is 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games against teams with a winning record. |
|||||||
12-15-19 | Bears v. Packers -4 | 13-21 | Win | 100 | 119 h 9 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #310 Green Bay Packers over Chicago Bears (1p.m., Sunday, December 15 FOX) The Packers are not getting much respect of late and thus we will take them on Sunday against a team they have already beaten once this season. Just do not trust QB Trubisky to win games on a consistent basis. Green Bay knows they need this game in order to win the division and they will get it by 7-10 points. Chicago is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games. Green Bay is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games against teams with a winning record. The Bears are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games against the Packers. |
|||||||
12-14-19 | Gonzaga v. Arizona -3 | 84-80 | Loss | -120 | 26 h 16 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #758 Arizona over Gonzaga (10p.m., Saturday, December 14 ESPN) Tough spot for the Bulldogs playing their second straight road game against a PAC-12 school. Gonzaga is not as strong as they have been in past years and they are playing a team that is hungry for this quality win and to get back into the NCAA Tournament. The Wildcats just have one loss on the season, a true road game at Baylor which went down to the wire. They have not had many competitive games and I feel they will pull away late to win this game by 7-10 points. Arizona is 12-5 ATS (3 pushes) in their last 20 games. |
|||||||
12-14-19 | Georgia v. Arizona State -4.5 | 59-79 | Win | 100 | 24 h 17 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #746 Arizona State over Georgia (8p.m., Saturday, December 14 PAC12N) These teams met last year in Athens and Arizona State came back from being down 18 points to win by 2. They should have a much easier time this season, as I just do not believe Georgia is much better in year 2 under Tom Crean. The Dawgs are 6-2 but they have yet to record a quality win this season. Arizona State has won 4 straight games and they are a tough team to beat in Tempe. Georgia is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games. Arizona State is 9-2 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS loss in their previous game. |
|||||||
12-14-19 | Stanford v. San Jose State +16 | 78-58 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 17 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #742 San Jose State over Stanford (7p.m., Saturday, December 14 CBSSN) The Spartans have played better basketball of late despite losing 5 in a row. They nearly won at San Diego State, a team many believe will get to the NCAA Tournament this season. Stanford is better this year, but they are not the type of team to be laying this kind of a number in a true road game. They are scoring just 75.6 points per game and it will be hard for them to cover if they just hit their average. Stanford is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as a road favorite. |
|||||||
12-14-19 | Spurs v. Suns -2 | 121-119 | Loss | -109 | 4 h 22 m | Show | |
We feel this is a joke of a line and based on name more than performance this season. The Spurs are just a lousy team. The Suns are coming off a loss and we think they will be primed for a good bounce back today. The Spurs are 1-4 ATS in their last four road games and we had this line handicapped at 5 so there is good value today. |
|||||||
12-13-19 | Rockets v. Magic UNDER 222 | Top | 130-107 | Loss | -114 | 6 h 16 m | Show |
Orlando is one of the worst offensive teams in the NBA and one of the best defensive clubs, and you have to always look for the under when this team has a total in the 220s. Five of the last seven games they have played have gone under the posted total, and they average under 103 PPG on offense. The Rockets have played under in three of their last four, and we don’t expect a shootout here and it’s very likely this total finishes well under 220. |
|||||||
12-12-19 | Hurricanes -105 v. Canucks | 0-1 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 56 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #019. Take Carolina over Vancouver (Thursday at 10:05 pm) As per your selection on Carolina, we believe this is a great spot for them to extend their winning streak to four games against a Vancouver team that's been mediocre at best over the last two weeks and have give up 9 goals over their last two games. Vancouver games may be fun to watch for the neutral fan but they hardly play any defense and we are going to exploit that tonight by backing a Carolina team that's scored 6 goals in back to back games and are among the top-10 in the league in all offense categories as well as defensive categories. This is also a letdown spot for the Canucks who vied their last game against a fellow Canadian team a big test in which they ultimately failed. Carolina gets another win tonight and we extend our NHL run to 4 straight winners. |
|||||||
12-12-19 | Mavs -5.5 v. Pistons | Top | 122-111 | Win | 100 | 8 h 16 m | Show |
This game is in Mexico City. Dallas has a lot of international players, so they should feel right at home here! The Mavs have been getting the job done in the favorite role as they are 8-1 ATS in their last nine when laying points. This team has been covering lines like crazy lately but are staying under the radar because of all the other big stories in the NBA this season. The Pistons are just so inconsistent, and we don’t think they will do well in this setting that they aren’t used to. We think there’s a great chance for a Dallas double-digit win here. |
|||||||
12-11-19 | Knicks v. Warriors OVER 210.5 | 124-122 | Win | 100 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
The Warriors have played a bunch of unders lately, but we are getting a too-low total as a result. In fact, this total is crazy low in today’s NBA. But the Knicks played last night and chased the Blazers up and down the court in a lousy effort. We don’t see them playing a lick of defense tonight, and the Warriors offense should thrive. And the Knicks will keep this competitive enough to where they will get their share of points to go over this posted number. |
|||||||
12-11-19 | Thunder +1.5 v. Kings | 93-94 | Win | 103 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
We just think the Thunder are the much stronger team here and this line is more than fair with them catching points on the road. In fact, we had them handicapped as a slight favorite in this game and we think they have a great chance for the outright win. They have won five of their last six and are playing very well right now. And this team is under the radar but they have been cashing tickets on a regular basis lately. There is value with the road team. |
|||||||
12-11-19 | Grizzlies v. Suns -7 | Top | 115-108 | Loss | -106 | 8 h 4 m | Show |
Phoenix started their season off hot then went into a bit of a lull. But they have got their groove back lately and this team has covered in four of its last five. After a four-game road trip they came back home in that tricky first game after a road trip and walloped the Timberwolves. Now they face an even bigger step down in competition against the Grizzlies. Memphis is a very bad team this season. They are getting a lot of points on a nightly basis from the oddsmakers but can’t cover any lines. They are coming off a win and a cover last time out against the Warriors, and they should be content tonight and won’t play desperate since not on a losing streak. This looks very much like a double-digit win for the home team. |
|||||||
12-11-19 | Bruins v. Capitals -122 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 14 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #066. Take Washington over Boston (Wednesday at 7:05 pm) As per your selection on Washington, we feel as if this is a great spot for Washington to get back int he win column after losing their last game 5-2 to a Columbus team that always plays the Caps tough. Now they get to take on a Bruins team that is on the decline as of right now, losers of three straight and having given up 13 goals during that span. We know Washington's strength is putting the puck in the back of the net as they sit third in the league in goals scored per game and shooting percentage. Boston is in the middle game of a four-game road trip and has to travel to Tampa Bay for a division showdown tomorrow. Washington is the fresher of the two teams having just played twice since they've only had one game between Dec 6 and tonight. Give us Washington on home ice to continue our winning ways on the ice. |

12-11-19 | Wisconsin +1.5 v. Rutgers | 65-72 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
5 Unit Play. Take #635 Wisconsin over Rutgers (7p.m., Wednesday, December 11 BTN) Rutgers is coming off two straight defeats and in appears obvious that this team will not be going anywhere come March for yet another season. Wisconsin played their best game of the season last time out against Indiana and expect to follow that up with another victory on Wednesday. Rutgers does not have a quality win this season and will lose this game straight-up. Both teams need this win, but Wisconsin has a history of coming up big during conference play and Rutgers does not. |

12-10-19 | Maple Leafs -113 v. Canucks | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #061. Take Toronto over Vancouver (Tuesday at 10:05 pm) As per your selection on Toronto, we feel as if this is a great spot for them to do well as they come into this game full of confidence after beating the defending Cup champs 5-2 in what was arguably their best game of the season. We know the Leafs have been inconsistent of late, but there comes a point where one game can turn the season around and we feel as if the Leafs know that their Saturday win would have been for nothing if they don't follow it up with a win vs a team they should beat. The Canucks are a good young team and are coming off a sloppy defensive game where they gave up 5 to Buffalo in an eventual 6-5 Ot win. Nonetheless, the Leafs will want to get their western road trip started on a winning note and should show some urgency to get both points in this game. |

12-10-19 | Nevada v. BYU -8 | 42-75 | Win | 100 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #618 BYU over Nevada (9p.m., Tuesday, December 10 ESPNU) The Wolf Pack have beaten up on weak teams for their 7 wins this season. Their last two losses have come by double digits and playing BYU in Provo will be too much for them to overcome. Having Yoeli Childs back gives the Cougars a big edge in this game. Nevada is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |

12-10-19 | Wizards v. Hornets UNDER 229.5 | 107-114 | Win | 100 | 6 h 10 m | Show | |
The Wizards have had some really high totals. But some of these numbers are getting ridiculous. Bettors are probably blindly taking the over every night so the bookies are increasing the numbers. The Hornets are one of the worst offensive teams in the NBA. They have scored more than 107 only once in their last eight games. They play some pretty solid defense. This should be a higher scoring game than they are used to, but we had this one handicapped around 223 so we think there is some nice value on the under. |
|||||||
12-09-19 | Magic +13 v. Bucks | 101-110 | Win | 100 | 9 h 39 m | Show | |
This line is just too large, in our opinion. The Magic got off to a slow start, but they come in having won four in a row (against an easy schedule, but still impressive). They are playing with a lot of confidence and playing like the playoff contender many thought they were coming into the season. When a good and popular team like the Bucks start winning a lot and covering the lines sometimes get out of control, and we think that is the case here as we expected 9.5 but got a few more points than we were expecting on the spread. |

12-08-19 | Seahawks v. Rams +1 | 12-28 | Win | 100 | 126 h 52 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #158 Los Angeles Rams over the Seattle Seahawks (8:20p.m., Sunday, December 8 NBC) The Rams appeared to get it last week and they must win games to keep their chances of a wild card berth alive. Seattle can afford to drop this game, since their chances of winning the division lie with their December 21st game against the 49ers. The Rams played the Seahawks tough earlier this season in Seattle and should be able to emerge victorious with this game being played at the Coliseum. Seattle is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games played in Los Angeles. The Rams are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games against NFC teams. |
|||||||
12-08-19 | Gonzaga v. Washington +4.5 | 83-76 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #804 Washington over Gonzaga (7p.m., Sunday, December 8 ESPN2) Just do not believe Gonzaga should be favored in this true road game for the Bulldogs. Gonzaga is not as talented as they have been in past years and Washington is a legit Top 25 team in 2019-2020. Gonzaga is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games. Expect this to be a close game that goes down to the wire and we will come out top with whoever wins it by a bucket. |

12-08-19 | Chiefs v. Patriots -3 | 23-16 | Loss | -105 | 122 h 58 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #152 New England Patriots over Kansas City Chiefs (4:25p.m., Sunday, December 8 CBS) Everyone is ready to put the nail in the coffin for Patriots, but I am not one of them. The Patriots have not lost at home this season and they should be able to get their offense back on track against this suspect Chiefs defense. This is strength vs strength, as the Chiefs offense is their best unit and they will have to go against the Patriots defense, which is their best unit. New England is 42-18 ATS (2 pushes) in their last 62 home games. Kansas City is 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games played during Week 14 of the regular season. It may not be pretty, but the Patriots will pull out this game by 7-10 points. |

12-08-19 | 49ers v. Saints -2.5 | 48-46 | Loss | -109 | 119 h 34 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #138 New Orleans Saints over San Francisco 49ers (1p.m., Sunday, December 8 FOX) This is a bad situational game for the 49ers, as they are playing their second straight 1 p.m. road game (10 am local). The 49ers gave the Ravens all that they can handle last week and now must face a team with an even greater home field advantage. QB Garoppolo continues to turnover the football each game and thus may be the best defense he will face this season. I believe the 49ers are deflated knowing they could end up as the No. 5 seed in the NFC and thus I would expect them to drop at least 2 of their remaining 4 games. San Francisco is 6-13 ATS (1 push) in their last 20 games against NFC teams. New Orleans is 51-25 ATS (1 push) in their last 77 games against teams with a winning record. |

12-07-19 | Wisconsin +16.5 v. Ohio State | Top | 21-34 | Win | 100 | 102 h 49 m | Show |
10 Unit Play. Take #119 Wisconsin Badgers over Ohio State Buckeyes (Big 10 Championship Game, 8p.m., Saturday, December 7 FOX) Sooner or later Ohio State is going to have a competitive game. They clobbered Michigan last week, but Wisconsin did the same thing to the Wolverines as well this season. The line opened at -18 but has bet down a little since 12/1/19 and I still think Wisconsin gives them a game and easily covers this spread. Penn State and Wisconsin both had to play in Columbus and getting to face them in Indianapolis will be a much different atmosphere. The underdog has covered the spread in 5 of the last 8 meetings (1 push). Wisconsin is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games against teams with a winning record. |
|||||||
12-07-19 | Pacers v. Knicks OVER 208 | Top | 104-103 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 42 m | Show |
This total is low because the Knicks have a lousy offense, but with the Pacers coming in on a back-to-back after playing their blood rival Detroit last night, we don’t see their defense being up to snuff. We think the Knicks will have an opportunity to score the basketball tonight. The over is 6-1-1 when the Pacers are on the second end of a back-to-back. This will be the first game for the Knicks with their interim coach, and they might push the pace more than we have seen recently. |

12-07-19 | Wild v. Hurricanes OVER 5.5 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #007/008. Take Over 5.5 Goals (-110) - Minnesota vs Carolina. (Saturday at 7:00 pm) As per your selection on the over in this spot, we feel as if this is a great spot to ride the Wild's momentum and bank on them scoring a few goals against a Carolina team who has been inconsistent over their last handful of games. The Wild just put up five on a great Tampa team and have extended their win streak to five games. We see them bagging at least three more goals tonight while the Hurricanes will want to also put on a show for their home crowd and we see them bagging a few goals themselves tonight. We love the fact that this game is at 5.5 as we can easily see a 4-2 game. Let's get this win and add to our NHL totals this weekend! |

12-07-19 | Indiana v. Wisconsin +1 | 64-84 | Win | 100 | 5 h 9 m | Show | |
6 Unit Play. Take #654 Wisconsin over Indiana (4:30p.m., Saturday, December 7 BTN) The Hoosiers have yet to play a true road game this season and they have not had much success at all playing in Madison. Wisconsin is a much better team at home, and this is a game they need to win to record if they have any hopes of making the NCAA Tournament come March. Wisconsin already beat Marquette at home and they will keep their undefeated home winning streak alive. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |

12-06-19 | USC v. TCU OVER 132.5 | 80-78 | Win | 100 | 10 h 45 m | Show | |
3 Unit Play. Take Over in Southern Cal @ TCU (9p.m., Friday, December 6 ESPN2) Both teams are off to good starts and this should not be a blowout allowing some late scoring to occur via fouls at the end of the game. USC has gone over the posted total in 10 of their last 14 road games. Expect that trend to hold true again on Friday night and we will not worry if TCU can cover this spread and just collect with the over. Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports |

12-06-19 | Clippers v. Bucks -3.5 | Top | 91-119 | Win | 100 | 7 h 29 m | Show |
When all is said and done we think the Clippers have a great chance to win the championship this season, and they will likely have to get through this Bucks team to achieve that goal. But at this point the Bucks are way ahead of the curve while the Clippers are still figuring a lot of things out on the go. The Clippers, smartly, don’t seem to care much about the regular season and are forward thinking with their gameplans for the playoffs. We just think the Bucks are in a much better spot for a big win tonight. |
|||||||
12-06-19 | Kings v. Spurs -4 | 104-105 | Loss | -104 | 7 h 29 m | Show | |
The Spurs have been one of the bigger disappointments to start the season, but there have been signs of life lately with home wins over the Clippers and Rockets in their last three. Of course, they had that real stinker at Detroit in between those games, but the Spurs need this with badly and we have to think they will take care of business against a Kings team that has been very inconsistent so far this season. San Antonio is still one of the toughest places for an opponent to come in and have success, and we think the Spurs get the job done tonight. |
|||||||
12-06-19 | Oregon +7 v. Utah | 37-15 | Win | 100 | 78 h 39 m | Show | |
4 Unit Play. Take #103 Oregon Ducks over Utah Utes (Pac-12 Championship Game, 8p.m., Friday, December 6 ABC) Utah has the better coach but I just believe Oregon has the better team. The Ducks are catching a lot of points and I think they will thrive under the spoiler role in this situation. Oregon is 2-0 in this game and they have not played many complete games this year, but this would be a great time for that to occur. Oregon is 22-9 ATS in their last 31 games being played on grass. Expect this game to go down to the wire and we will come out on top with whoever wins this game by a field goal. |
|||||||
12-06-19 | Wizards v. Heat UNDER 232.5 | 103-112 | Win | 100 | 7 h 60 m | Show | |
The Wizards come in on a back-to-back after playing a tough game last night in a loss to Philly. This team is also playing their third game in four nights. We don’t think they will have anything left in the tank here. Miami had their own back-to-back on Wednesday and lost badly to Boston. They will be fired up to get back on track here. We see this one as a total blowout and don’t see the Wizards scoring enough to get anywhere near this total against a tough Miami defense. |
|||||||
12-06-19 | Warriors v. Bulls -4.5 | 100-98 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 59 m | Show | |
It’s crazy how the Warriors have gone from one of the best teams the NBA has even seen to maybe the worst team in the NBA this season. But this team has been besieged with injuries and they are bringing out a very young and raw roster every night. Chicago has had a rough start to the season, but they have been playing better lately and this is a good chance for them to keep the positive momentum going tonight. |
