Hofstra has been a red-hot team and it has carried over to the tourney too. I'll take Hofstra here today. |

They are coming off a loss at Houston, 66-83, covering the 17.5-point line. They are 3-2 S/U and ATS their last five games.

03-04-23 | Chicago State +12.5 v. Fresno State | 69-108 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 37 m | Show | |
Pretty rare to find teams playing non-conference games this late in the regular season, but that's what we have here today as Chicago State visits Fresno. The Chicago State Cougars are 11-19 overall on the season. They are coming off a loss at Gonzaga last Wednesday, 65-104, as a 28-point dog. That actually snapped a three game win streak for the Cougars. They are also 16-10 vs the spread this year and 6-2 the last eight games with lines. The Fresno State Bulldogs are 10-19 and really have to win the Mountain West Tournament to make the NCAA. This game has no bearing on any postseason aspirations for the Dogs, in fact it really hurt them with a team they should beat easily on the schedule this late. Fresno is just 1-5 S/U and 2-4 ATS in their last six games. They are also 10-18 ATS overall on the season. No real motivation for Fresno here, but Chicago State would love to pull the big upset. Take Chicago State. |

03-04-23 | Tennessee v. Auburn -1.5 | 70-79 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
SEC action here today has 3rd place Tennessee (11-6 in conference) taking on 7th place Auburn (9-8). Tennessee is 22-8 overall and has a two-game win streak coming into this game. The Volunteers are 3-4 S/U their last seven and 3-6 ATS their last nine games. In addition, the Vols are 4-5 S/U and 3-6 ATS on the road this year. Auburn needs wins. The Tigers are 19-11 overall and need quality wins to help them come NCAA tournament time. The Tigers are just 2-6 S/U and ATS in their last eight games. They have been good at home with a 13-2 S/U record. With the line sitting around Auburn -1 we need little more than a straight-up win here today with Auburn. I'll take Auburn here today. |
|||||||
03-04-23 | Alabama v. Texas A&M -1.5 | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show | |
Early Saturday SEC action has Texas A&M hosting Alabama. Alabama looks to have the conference locked-up as they sit 16-1 in the SEC, 2-games ahead of Texas A&M. A&M is 22-8 overall and while they look to make the NCAA easily, a win here today would definitely pad the tourney resume. Alabama is 26-4 overall and needed an OT to beat Auburn in their last game, 90-85, failing to cover the 10-point line. While the Crimson Tide have won four straight and eight of the last nine, they have covered just one of their last five games. A&M is coming off a win over Ole Miss, 69-61, covering the 5-point line. They are now 7-1 S/U and ATS in their last eight games. In addition they are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games. Basically all we need is a straight-up win here today with the Aggies. I'll take Texas A&M on their home court and lots of motivation to win this game. |

03-03-23 | Knicks -2.5 v. Heat | 122-120 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
Eastern Conference battle here on Friday has 5th place NY Knicks taking on the 7th place Miami Heat. The Knicks are 37-27 overall and have won seven straight games both S/U and ATS. That includes last game on Wednesday over Brooklyn, 142-118, as a 7.5-point favorite. The Knicks have been good on the road, going 18-12 S/U and 19-10-1 ATS (65%). The Miami Heat could be without start Jimmy Butler who is nursing a knee injury. Butler is listed as questionable. The Heat are 33-30 overall and have lost five of their las six games both S/U and ATS. That includes Wednesday's loss at home to Philly, 96-119. With or without Butler tonight I like the red-hot Knicks here in this one. |

03-03-23 | Stephen F Austin +8.5 v. Utah Valley | 69-113 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 23 m | Show | |
Utah Valley sits atop the Western Athletic Conference standings with a 14-3 record and 23-7 overall mark. Stephen Austin comes in tied for their with Southern Utah at 11-6 and 19-11 overall. Austin had their 2-game winning streak snapped on Wednesday by Sam Houston, 59-64, as a 1.5-point dog. They are 4-3 ATS over their last seven games. They have done well for bettors on the road, going 7-2-1 ATS in their nine 10 away games. Utah Valley rebounded from their loss at Abilene Christian with a win over Texas Arlington on Wednesday, 79-59, as a 13.5-point favorite. I think this game will be tighter than what the odds may reflect at this point. I'll take the points with Stephen Austin. |

The Spurs snapped a three game losing streak with a win at Utah their last game, 102-94, as a 9.5-point dog. That was only their second win in their last 16 games.

St Mary's pulled the big win over Gonzaga in their last game, though they had to go to OT to do it. That makes St Mary's 10-0 in the West Coast and in 1st place, two game ahead of Gonzaga. That makes the Gaels 20-4 overall on the season. You have to go back to Dec 18th for the last time they lost and that was at home to Colorado State, 60-62, as a 11.5-point favorite. Loyola Marymount is third in the West Coast with a 6-5 record and 16-9 overall mark. They look to snap a two-game losing streak after a pair of games on the road. They return home tonight where they are 11-2 S/U and 9-3 ATS on the season. St Mary's could be in for a bit of a letdown after that big win last game.

The Big East is filled with quality teams and two of those go head to head tonight. This game could make the difference between a NCAA bid and a NIT or lower conference big. Creighton is tied for fourth in the conference with a 9-3 record. Right behind them is Seton Hall with a 8-5 record. Creighton has won six straight games after their win over Villanova, 66-61, as a 10-point favorite. They are just 3-5 ATS their last eight games.

02-07-23 | Suns -4.5 v. Nets | 116-112 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 30 m | Show | |
The Brooklyn Nets had high hopes when they added Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. However, those hopes were crushed as they just didn't materialize. Now, the Nets have decided to trade Irving away to the Mavericks. Now Durant is hurt and missed yesterday's game vs the Clippers. It looks like the Nets have given up on their Superstars as leading them to the promised land. The Nets lost last night to the Clippers, 116-124. Now they have to play the 2nd of a back-to-back spot. They are just 5-16-1 ATS their last 22 home games vs a team with a road winning record. They are also 18-41-2 ATS their last 61 home games. The Suns had the last two nights off after beating Detroit on Saturday, 116-100, as a 4.5-point favorite. They have won two straight and four of their last five both S/U and ATS. They are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games and 4-1 ATS in their last five road games. With this Nets team now in flux and Durant possibly missing another game here tonight, I'll lay the points with the Suns in this one. |

02-07-23 | Rutgers +4.5 v. Indiana | Top | 60-66 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 5 m | Show |
Big 10 action here on Tuesday has Rutgers taking on Indiana. Indiana is third in the Big 10 with a 7-5 conference record and 16-7 overall mark. Rutgers is 2nd in the Big 10 with a 8-4 record and 16-7 overall record. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights have won two straight games since their loss to Iowa on Jan 28th. They are coming off a win over Michigan State, 61-55, as a 5-point favorite. They have also covered three of the last four and 10 of the last 13 games. Indiana rebounded from their last on Jan 31 to Maryland with a win over top ranked Purdue, 79-74 last game. That huge win could be an issue here today if the Hoosiers find themselves in a bit of a letdown spot following that win over the top ranked team in the nation. I'm going to take the points here today. Rutgers is good enough to pull out the straight-up win and I'm not convinced that win over Purdue won't have a lasting effect on Indiana here. Take Rutgers. |

02-06-23 | Green Bay +17.5 v. Wisc-Milwaukee | 80-79 | Win | 100 | 7 h 30 m | Show | |
Wisconsin Milwaukee is 10-3 in the Horizon league and in 2nd place, one game back of Youngstown State. Green Bay is in last place in the conference, 1-12 in Horizon play and 2-22 overall. Green Bay looks to snap a 14-game losing streak here tonight when they travel to Milwaukee to play their instate rivals. Milwaukee has won four of it's last five games including last game at IUPUI, 72-69. Yes, Green Bay is arguably the worst team in college basketball. They lost their opening seven, won two of three, then lost their last 14 games. The Phoenix have lost to Milwaukee once this season, 81-67, on Dec 1 as 7-point home dogs. Milwaukee should have little issues here tonight to stay on pace with Youngstown State. So why in the world would I even consider taking Green Bay here tonight. Well, the points are +17 and that's a tall number no matter who you are playing. And I also figure Milwaukee to rest many of their regulars as they prepare for the final push in conference play. They have little interest in this game tonight while Green Bay would like nothing better than to upset their rivals. I'll take the points and give them a shot. Play Green Bay. |

They are coming off a win over the Knicks, 134-128, as a 2.5-point favorite. They play the final game of their road sweep here tonight before returning to the Staples Center.

They are also 5-2 O/U in their last seven overall games and 15-7-1 O/U their last 23 vs a team with a winning home record. The Nets rebounded from their loss at Boston on Wednesday with a win over the Wizards, 125-123, as a 1.5-point dog. It was their second straight over game and fifth in their last six games. They are also 5-3 S/U in their last eight games. The Nets have gone over in five of their last six games and are 3-1-1 O/U in their last five playing on one day rest. Both teams are playing well, but I'll just stick with the OVER here tonight. |
