11-07-22 | Cavs -4 v. Clippers | 117-119 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 31 m | Show | |
Cleveland at LA Clippers 10:30 ET Clippers (+) over Cavaliers- Since dropping their opening game 108-105 at Toronto the Cavaliers have reeled off nine straight wins and covers as their off season addition of Donovan Mitchell is paying dividends. Cleveland is playing their three straight on the road as part of six of seven on the trail. With Kawhi Leonard having missed the last seven games Paul George has picked up the slack averaging 32.3 points. Cavs are 3-9 ATS in the last 12 meetings including just 1-5 ATS in LA. Take the CLIPPERS! |

11-07-22 | Ravens v. Saints +1.5 | Top | 27-13 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 47 m | Show |
Baltimore at New Orleans 8:15 ET Saints (+) over Ravens- If this game was played on Sunday it would have been my ‘Highest-Rated’ Megabucks so I have no problems using them here. New Orleans has a chance to do something for the first time this season and that is to win back-to back games. The Ravens accomplished that feat last week after defeating Tampa Bay 27-24 and Cleveland the previous week. The Saints have put something together after last week’s dominating performance against Las Vegas winning 24-0 and allowing just 183 yards total offense. Ravens 2-6 ATS against teams with losing records and 0-3-1 ATS on field turf while the Saints are 6-2 ATS after allowing less than 250 yards the previous games. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

11-07-22 | Bucks v. Hawks +4.5 | 98-117 | Win | 100 | 8 h 17 m | Show | |
Milwaukee at Atlanta 8:15 ET Hawks (+) over Bucks- Milwaukee is still unbeaten at 9-0 and if Giannis comes to play every night they just might not lose at all (get real...). This is the second meeting already this season and of course the Bucks won 123-115 in Milwaukee 10 days ago as Antetokounmpo racked up 34 points. Scoring machine Trae Young recorded 42 points in that one and I expect more of the same in Atlanta where the Bucks dropped both meetings last year. Hawks are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 home games against teams with winning records. Take ATLANTA! |
|||||||
11-07-22 | Suns v. 76ers +2.5 | Top | 88-100 | Win | 100 | 8 h 3 m | Show |
Phoenix at Philadelphia 8:10 ET 76ers (+) over Suns- It might seem improbable but the 76ers usually provide more drama than talent. Philadelphia’s biggest talent Joel Embiid will return after missing the last three games due to a non-Covid illness but the real drama has James Harden sidelined for a month because of a strained foot. I understand that sometimes less is actually more as with Harden out Tobias Harris and Tyrese Maxey will see more playing time and together will be more efficient than Harden. Suns are 1-4 ATS on the road and the Sixers are the same at home. Take PHILADELPHIA! |
|||||||
11-06-22 | Titans v. Chiefs -12 | Top | 17-20 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 41 m | Show |
Tennessee at Kansas City 5:20 ET Chiefs (-) over Titans- Okay, here we go with the craziness. Tennessee has won and covered four straight and now without their mediocre quarterback out and rookie Milik Willis they are a double-digit road dog. This price tells you exactly what to expect as the Titans conservative style will prevent them from competing here. Mahomes and KC offense too much for the air challenged Titans. The trends are all Tennessee as they should be with a number like this. But, it is there for a reason. Take KANSAS CITY! |
|||||||
11-06-22 | Bulls +2.5 v. Raptors | Top | 104-113 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 29 m | Show |
Chicago at Toronto 6:00 ET Bulls (+) over Raptors- DeMar DeRozen who played nine years in Toronto and was traded for Khawi Leonard before the 2017-18 season to San Antonio where he played for three years before this two year tenure in Chicago. He has averaged 23.8 points against Toronto in 10 meetings. The Bulls are 22-8 ATS in their last 30 games versus the Raptors including 12-3 ATS in Toronto. Take CHICAGO! |
|||||||
11-06-22 | Vikings v. Commanders +3 | Top | 20-17 | Push | 0 | 20 h 58 m | Show |
Minnesota at Washington 1:00 ET 2 Commies (+) over Vikings- Minnesota is leading the way in the NFC and at 6-1 in the NFC North and have a 4-game lead in the loss column over both the Packers and Bears who are both 3-5. The Vikings are a perfect 4-0 at home and will be taking it on the road for the first time in three weeks. Washington is off a late second 17-16 win at Indianapolis and are 2-0 under gutsy Taylor Heinecke and have won their last three but are still in the NFC East basement. Vikings defense is ranked No. 28 and allowing 381YPG and the Dogs is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings in the series. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
11-06-22 | Dolphins v. Bears +4.5 | 35-32 | Win | 100 | 19 h 59 m | Show | |
Miami at Chicago 1:00 ET Bears (+) over Dolphins- After the way the Dolphins make comeback under Tua is a scary thing. There was the 21 points that they overcame against Baltimore and then last week they trailed the Lions by multiple scores once again stand managed to win and cover. Chicago is getting better and their performance against Dallas last week showed that they still have a few things to work on (HA...I’ll say). Bears are 3-1-1 ATS after a SU loss and the underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. Take CHICAGO! |
|||||||
11-06-22 | Colts +6 v. Patriots | 3-26 | Loss | -116 | 18 h 21 m | Show | |
Indianapolis at New England 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Patriots- There are so many reasons that I did not want to make a play on this game as there are question marks on both sides of the ball for both teams. Quarterbacks seem to be the problem as the Colts have replace Ryan and the Patriots are beginning to question if Mac Jones is the answer for them or is it Baily Zappe. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |
|||||||
11-05-22 | Wake Forest v. NC State +3 | 21-30 | Win | 100 | 26 h 4 m | Show | |
Wake Forest at N.C. State 8:00 ET Wolfpack (+) over Demon Deacons- Playing against the Demon Deacons has been a joy as our Megabucks winner Louisville routed Wake Forest last week. NC State is in perfect position to pull off a second consecutive upset of the Deacons as their defense is geared to stop Wake allowing barley 300 yards per game. The home team is 18-4 ATS in the last 22 meetings and the Wolfpack are 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings as hosts versus Wake. Take NC STATE! |
|||||||
11-05-22 | Celtics v. Knicks +5 | Top | 133-118 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 10 m | Show |
Boston at New York 7:30 ET Knicks (+) over Celtics- This is Tom Thibodeau’s third season with the Knicks and they have had a team that always seems like they are in some sort of transition. Their style of play has varied since his taking the coach job and they have improved by leaps and bounds. This year’s clubs seems the most balanced that he has had to work with and now they have shown some talent. Boston who is 1-5 ATS in their last six road games is also 1-5 ATS after a SU win. Knicks are young and 16-6 ATS in the second of back-to-back games. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
11-05-22 | Clemson v. Notre Dame +4 | 14-35 | Win | 100 | 26 h 48 m | Show | |
Clemson at Notre Dame 7:30 ET Fighting Irish (+) over Tigers- The Irish came through as ‘our’ Early-Bird Game of the Year winner a 41-24 win over Syracuse. after dropping their opener o Ohio State and then getting routed by Marshall after two games the season looked bleak for Notre Dame. But, wins over North Carolina and Syracuse have them believing in themselves once again. Clemson is the clubs that prides itself with a stout defense but is actually Notre Dame that is ranked one spot above the Tigers on D. Clemson is 2-8 ATS in their last 10 non-conference games and the Irish are 6-0 ATS against the ACC. Take NOTRE DAME! |
|||||||
11-05-22 | Alabama -13.5 v. LSU | Top | 31-32 | Loss | -105 | 26 h 41 m | Show |
Alabama at LSU 7:00 ET Crimson Tide (-) over Tigers- Oh boy...this is our chance to see Alabama actually rout a decent team in their backyard. LSU has defeated the tide once in the past 11 years and that was the season led by Joe Burrow the Tigers won the National Championship. The difference between these two will be witnessed on both sides of the ball as Alabama’s defense allows just 295 YPG and that includes the 567 yards put up by No. 1 Tennessee. Note that the road team is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings and that trend continues here. Take ALABAMA! |
|||||||
11-05-22 | Tennessee v. Georgia -8 | Top | 13-27 | Win | 100 | 24 h 32 m | Show |
Chip’s Highest-Rated SEC Game of the Year Tennessee at Georgia 3:30 ET Bulldogs (-) over Volunteers- Oh, so you think that Tennessee is the No. 1 team in the land and that Georgia is No.3...think again. The Bulldogs are the most dominate team in college football and they will be out to prove it here against a great Vol's offense. Tennessee is leading the nation is scoring at 49.4 PG and 553 YPG while Georgia is No. 2 in total offense 531 YPG and score 41.8 PPG. On defense is where the winner will be determined and that mean the Bulldogs have a huge advantage. defense allows nearly 400 YPG of which 300 yards come from the passing game. Bulldogs are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings and the beat goes on...Take GEORGIA! |
|||||||
11-04-22 | Oregon State v. Washington -4 | Top | 21-24 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 59 m | Show |
Oregon State at Washington 10:30 ET Huskies (-) over Beavers- Interestingly enough both of these clubs come off bye weeks and should be relatively healthy and both support identical records (6-2, 3-2). When I first gazed upon this match-up I’m thinking here is an un-ranked squad (Washington) favored over a ranked team (OSU) and I begin to wonder what is going on. The Beavers can pound it on the ground averaging 230 rushing and they would need every bit of that this week as starting QB Chance Nolan is out with a concussion. The story here is Michael Penix Jr. who leads the nation in passing with 366 YPG. State is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 trips to Seattle but are 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games overall while Huskies are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games. Take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
11-04-22 | Bucks v. Wolves +3.5 | Top | 115-102 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 44 m | Show |
Milwaukee at Minnesota 10:00 ET Timberwolves (+)over Bucks- There is no question who the most dominant player in the NBA game today is and Giannis seems driven to prove it every night. Undefeated Milwaukee (7-0) led by Antetokounmpo who averages 33.6 points, 12.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.7 blocks and 1.1 steals per game on 57% shooting. (WOW...really) The Wolves made some huge off-season moves and they are still waiting to gel and tonight could be the start. Take MINNESOTA! |
|||||||
11-04-22 | Bulls v. Celtics -7 | 119-123 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
Chicago at Boston 7:30 ET Celtics (-) over Bulls- Chicago has won their last two games and defense was the difference as they held the Nets to 99 points and the Hornets to 88 after allowing 113.1 on the season. Boston has dropped 3-of-4 including a pair of overtime losses to Cleveland and lost at Chicago 10 days ago. The Celtics are 10-3 ATS after a SU loss and rebound here. Take BOSTON! |
|||||||
11-04-22 | Knicks v. 76ers -3.5 | 106-104 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 46 m | Show | |
New York at Philadelphia 7:00 ET Knicks (+) over 76ers- The Philadelphia squad is another NBA drama queen club with Harden, Embiid and their off-court issues causing a stir, although they are nowhere near as ego driven as Brooklyn. The Knicks blew a 23-point lead at home to Atlanta a team that they blew a 26-point home court lead to last year. They have lost their last three and failed to cover any of their last four games but are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 road games while the 76ers are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
11-02-22 | Pelicans v. Lakers +3.5 | 117-120 | Win | 100 | 9 h 58 m | Show | |
New Orleans at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET Lakers (+) over Pelicans- Break-up the Lakers...the once proud franchise posted their first win of the season and now stand at 1-5. But, hey getting their first victory wasn’t the most important thing, that is that they finally covered a spread (Yea!). This may be the unveiling of the young against the aging as the upstart Pelicans bring the future while the crumbing Lakers fall apart with seniors Davis, Lebron and Westbrook. Although New Orleans is 17-8 ATS in their last 25 road games and 4-1 ATS in last five against LA the vets will suck it up to save embarrassment. Take the LAKERS! |
|||||||
11-02-22 | Raptors -7.5 v. Spurs | Top | 143-100 | Win | 100 | 6 h 29 m | Show |
Toronto at San Antonio 8:00 ET Raptors (-) over Spurs- I sort of did a double-take at this game when I first saw the opening line as the Raptors (4-3) who are 1-2 on the road were a strong favorite at San Antonio (5-2) where the Spurs are 3-1. The Spurs have won five of their past six games and the first two of their home stand but they will be playing short handed as no less than four players will be unavailable. Raptors are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings although the Spurs are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games...so why the heavy line? Take TORONTO! |
|||||||
11-01-22 | Wolves +3.5 v. Suns | Top | 107-116 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 51 m | Show |
Minnesota at Phoenix 9:00 ET Timberwolves (+) over Suns- The aging Suns will be without center Deandre Ayton once again tonight and that should boost the Wolves who have lost seven of eight to the Suns including all three meeting last season. Timberwolves are one of the most improved teams in the league over the past two seasons and look to move on during the playoffs. This match will help them measure just how far they have come. Take MINNESOTA! |
|||||||
10-31-22 | Bengals v. Browns +3 | Top | 13-32 | Win | 100 | 23 h 42 m | Show |
Cincinnati at Cleveland 8:15 ET Browns (+) over Bengals- One club has their quarterback of the future and the other club in waiting for their future quarterback to return from double-secret probation. No doubt Joe Burrow has emerged as an elite QB but a major part of his past success is now sidelined as La Marr Chase is down for six weeks. With Chase down the browns run defense can put more pressure on Joe Mixon and the Bengals run game. I state rivals have the underdog 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings. Take CLEVELAND! |
|||||||
10-31-22 | 76ers v. Wizards +4.5 | Top | 118-111 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Washington 7:00 ET Wizards (+) over 76ers- Philly is always looking for an opportunity to take a day off and with the likelihood that Joel Embiid will ‘rest’ this on out. Washington has dropped two straight after a quick start and are now even at 3-3. The Wizards have a few fresh faces including Kristaps Porzingis who has been a disappointment where ever he has been. James Harden will dominate the ball and get some great stats while Embiid is sidelined and that just enough to get you beat...take WASHINGTON! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Packers +11 v. Bills | 17-27 | Win | 100 | 28 h 34 m | Show | |
Green Bay at Buffalo 8:20 ET Packers (+) over Bills- Relax! Ha! I’m pretty sure Aaron Rodgers will be relaxing on a beach or playing golf come the first week of the NFL playoffs as the 4-time MVP his having a career worst season. I’ve been kidding all season that Geno Smith is the NFLs MVP, but in reality it is Josh Allen. But as you all know ‘you can’t win em all.’ Buffalo has won three straight games while the Packers have lost three straight but under Rodgers they are 6-0 ATS after gaining less than 250 yards the previous game. The Bills are just really good but this one should stay close. Take GREEN BAY! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Knicks +4.5 v. Cavs | Top | 108-121 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 37 m | Show |
New York at Cleveland 6:00 ET Knicks (+) over Cavaliers- During the off-season the Knicks were trying desperately to acquire Donovan Mitchell who is bow averaging 31 points a game for Cleveland. New York ended their search for help by signing Jalen Brunson from Dallas and he has had a positive impact averaging 18.6 points and playing solid defense. The Knicks are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 road games and are 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings in Cleveland. Take NEW YORK! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | 49ers v. Rams +1 | 31-14 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 40 m | Show | |
San Francisco at L.A Rams 4:25 ET Rams (+) over 49ers- Really now, I know the record between these two teams and it is all Niners to the point that they have already dominated the Rams once this season willing 24-9 as a 1-point dog. With this line I would normally move toward the Rams but the sentiment is overwhelming for San Francisco. Maybe it’s the Cable Car City’s now allowing residence to use the sidewalks as toilets I don’t know and I don’t get it. The 49ers looked helpless against the Chiefs last time out and I believe they were exposed and then they come up favorite and the masses are on them Not me. Take LOS ANGELES! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Titans v. Texans +2.5 | Top | 17-10 | Loss | -103 | 24 h 35 m | Show |
Tennessee Houston 4:05 ET Texans (+) over Titans- Oh man, really, the Titans are less than a field against the NFL’s worst in spite of them getting their wish. Be careful what you wish for as Malik Willis might get his chance. Ryan Tannehill is not at full strength but it is his low QB rating could be a factor. Trends are backing Texans as the home team is 9-3 ATS in last 12 meetings and get the rest of this. Titans are 1-7 ATS in last eight meets in Houston and 6-15-1 ATS in the last 22 meetings overall. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Dolphins v. Lions +3.5 | Top | 31-27 | Loss | -108 | 21 h 32 m | Show |
Miami at Detroit 1:00 ET Lions (+) over Dolphins- The Lions have scored a grand total of three points in their last two games and had a much needed week off to regroup. I do believe that Miami can beat anyone and being favored here is no surprise but they still have lingering doubts as to who should be playing at quarterback. It isn’t that Tua can’t win the issue is getting him and keeping him on the field as this has been a career issue. Take DETROIT! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Raiders v. Saints +1.5 | 0-24 | Win | 100 | 20 h 17 m | Show | |
Las Vegas at New Orleans 1:00 ET Saints (+) over Raiders- If you bet them they will lose...yeah that’s me and the Saints but fortunately we we bet against Las Vegas we win. The Raiders are one of those teams that just doesn’t do what is expected (maybe it is an Al Davis thing) and they have only two wins and are favored on the road. Guess what, they are 2-6 ATS in their last seven road games and are 0-6 ATS on the road against teams with losing records. Meanwhile, the Saints stink and their coaching is coming into question but they win here. Take NEW ORLEANS! |
|||||||
10-30-22 | Broncos +2.5 v. Jaguars | 21-17 | Win | 100 | 20 h 38 m | Show | |
Denver at Jacksonville 9:30 ET Broncos (+) over Jaguars- Yeah, I just love this match-up and so happy that is garbage game in overseas and many won’t have to endure this sure to be ‘classic.’ We had both these side last week and we were very disappointed with the outcome as Denver held the Jets to 10 first downs and lost without Russell Wilson and the Jaguars fumbled into the end zone twice in blowing a lead to the Giants. It bothers me that I like the Broncos and the Jags have come up the favorite with identical records on a neutral site but nobody else like the Broncos. So take DENVER! |
|||||||
10-29-22 | 76ers v. Bulls +2 | Top | 114-109 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 23 m | Show |
Philadelphia at Chicago 8:10 ET Bulls over 76ers- Was it Joel Embiid or was it James Harden? No, it was Tyrese Maxey who scored a season high 44 points last night in the 76ers win over Toronto. Chicago is coming off a loss at San Antonio last night when Zach LaVine sat out for rest management (HA imagine that, five games into the season). Philly has won 11 straight meetings including five in-a-row in Chicago. Not, this time. Take CHICAGO! |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Pittsburgh +3 v. North Carolina | Top | 24-42 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 19 m | Show |
Pittsburgh at North Carolina 8:00 ET Panthers (+) over Tar Heels- Whoa, really now, the Tar Heels are favored by how much, at home, over who. It can’t be Pittsburgh because they have three losses and were crushed by Louisville last week after falling to a win-less Georgia Tech team. North Carolina has the No. 6 offense averaging 506 ypg but they don’t tackle well and surrender 476 ypg ranking No. 125. Panthers are 6-0 ATS in last six after a SU loss and are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games. UNC defeated Duke 38-35 a non-cover win last time out two weeks ago and they are 0-6 ATS following a bye week. Take PITTSBURGH! |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Ole Miss v. Texas A&M +2 | 31-28 | Loss | -105 | 23 h 1 m | Show | |
Mississippi at Texas A&M 7;30 ET Aggies (+) over Rebels- I hate to say this is because we all can see how bad the Aggies are but the book maker doesn’t see it that way. Week after week ‘they’ make it so easy to play against them and they have one of the least impressive offenses in college football. Texas A&M in this day and age average just they are ranked 87 passing and 105 rushing and 109 in scoring. So here’s Mississippi 490 ypg ranking No. 12 252 yards rushing.ranking third in the nation. The Aggies have dropped three-in-a-row and are still 8-2 ATS after a straight-up loss. Yet, bookies think this No. 12 team should be favored by less than a field goal...no way, I do! Take TEXAS A&M! |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Pacers v. Nets -10 | 125-116 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 54 m | Show | |
Indiana at Brooklyn 7:40 ET Nets (-) over Pacers- There was a time in New York sports where their were cries from the rest of the league to ‘break-up’ that dominating squad. Well, Brooklyn seemed like they could have been like those great clubs of the past with Harden, Durant and Irving. The Nets have become a standing joke with all the drama they create for them selves as their egos are biggest than their desire to win. But, the odds maker believe i them tonight, okay so will I. Take BROOKLYN. |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Kentucky +12 v. Tennessee | 6-44 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 26 m | Show | |
Kentucky at Tennessee 7:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Volunteers- A rhetorical question...Have you guys and gals seen this Tennessee offense, of course you have and you know they average 50.1 points and 571 ypg No. 1 in the USA.Kentucky had a week off and so did the Vols, oh not they annihilated UT Martin 65-24. Cats 20-5-2 ATS against teams with winning records and the Vols are 9-24 ATS in their last 33 games at home against teams with winning records. Take KENTUCKY! |

10-29-22 | Heat v. Kings +4.5 | 113-119 | Win | 100 | 5 h 25 m | Show | |
Miami at Sacramento 6:10 ET Kings (+) over Heat- The Kings who have not the NBA Playoffs in 17 years are also waiting fir their first win of the season before they are ostracized into the WNBA. Sacramento has four of its first first five game at home while Miami is on the road for the third time in four night. De’Andre Fox has become a force for the Kings he just needs a little help which he should get tonight against a team struggling with continuity. Take SACRAMENTO! |

10-29-22 | Wake Forest v. Louisville +3.5 | Top | 21-48 | Win | 100 | 19 h 54 m | Show |
Wake Forest at Louisville 3:30 ET Cardinals (+) over Demon Deacons- This is the first game that caught my attention as I felt Wake Forest was being slighted as a meager 5-point favorite at Louisville. It just doesn’t look right as the Demon Deacons have been rolling over opponents covering four straight with their only loss in OT to Clemson. They have been bet down to -3.5 as the ‘sharps’ knocked it down even more. Louisville looks like a different club from the one that lost to lowly Boston College and got crushed by Syracuse and it is the defense that has turned things around for the Cardinals.In their last two wins over Pittsburgh and Virginia they allowed less than 600 total yards. Take LOUISVILLE! |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Notre Dame +2 v. Syracuse | Top | 41-24 | Win | 100 | 18 h 12 m | Show |
Notre Dame at Syracuse 12:00 ET Fighting Irish over Orange- It all catches up to the Orange this week as their bubble was burst lat week in allowing Clemson to come from behind in the final quarter handing them their first defeat despite the cover. Early on Notre Dame was a disappointment and then they turned to more than most expected only to fail once again at Stanford after three straight wins. Syracuse will be a little saddened and then surprised at the level of the Irish talent and just how far away they actually are. Domers are 21-8-1 ATS on the road and 5-0 ATS vs the ACC. Take NOTRE DAME! |
|||||||
10-28-22 | Rockets +4.5 v. Blazers | Top | 111-125 | Loss | -120 | 10 h 43 m | Show |
Houston at Portland 10:00 ET Rockets (+) over Trailblazers- Portland started the year 4-0 with Damian Lillard leading the way and then disaster hit as Lillard went down with a calf injury in their loss to Miami Wednesday night. He will be out for at least two weeks and the Trailblazers will suffer without him as he was averaging 33.3-points while shooting 50%. Although Houston has won just one of five games played they are 4-1 ATS and are 4-0 ATS in their last four trips to Portland. Blazers are 6-18 ATS following a SU loss and are 1-7 ATS at home against teams with losing records. Take HOUSTON! |
|||||||
10-28-22 | Jazz v. Nuggets -8 | 101-117 | Win | 100 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
Utah at Denver 9:00 ET Nuggets (-) over Jazz- Because of off season personnel changes not much is expected out of Utah this season so it came as a surprise opening night when the Jazz manhandled the Nuggets 123-102. More is expected of Denver who are favored to win the Northwest and are looking to get a measure of revenge after their season opening defeat. Utah is 8-21-1 ATS in their last 30 road games and Denver has struggled to cover at home going 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games as hosts. Still, tonight it is DENVER! |
|||||||
10-28-22 | East Carolina +3.5 v. BYU | Top | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 8 h 13 m | Show |
East Carolina at Brigham Young 8:00 ET Pirates (+) over Cougars- Usually under these circumstances I would be looking for reasons to the play the home Cougars. East Carolina is coming off their best game of the season a 34-13 win over Central Florida and BYU is off their worst game a 41-14 loss at Liberty. The line here looks a bit short but it is probably right as the Pirates have higher ranked offense and defenses and are 11-5 ATS in their last 11 games on the road. The Cougars have not cover since defeated and are 0-6 ATS in their last six games overall. Straight-up the Pirates get it done. Take EAST CAROLINA! |

Cleveland at Boston 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over Celtics- A pair of 3-1 clubs that got there in different ways meet in Boston where the Celtics who won their first three before dropping a game to the Bulls on Monday. Cleveland took the opposite course by losing their opener and is now on a 3-game winning streak. The Cavaliers are 28-10-2 ATS after a win as winning breeds confidence. In an oddity the Celtics are just 3-9 ATS on Fridays. Take CLEVELAND! |

10-27-22 | Grizzlies v. Kings +3 | Top | 125-110 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 55 m | Show |
Memphis at Sacramento 10:00 ET Kings (+) over Grizzlies- There should be a great match-up between two of the NBA’s brightest gems against each other as the league’s leading scorer Ja Morant and Sacramento’s De’Aaron Fox. Fox is averaging 31.7 points 7.0 assists and is shooting 60% while Ja averages 35.3 ppg. Something bogus with this one as the Kings who haven’t make the playoffs in 16 years and have lost six straight to the Grizzlies including all three games last season by an average of 23.7 points. Take SACRAMENTO! |

10-26-22 | Lakers +5.5 v. Nuggets | Top | 99-110 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 29 m | Show |
LA Lakers at Denver 10:00 ET Lakers over Nuggets- I don’t ever recall that a LeBron James team is 0-3 to start the season and they are also 0-3 ATS so far. Los Angeles is currently the worst shooting team in the NBA but they do have one huge factor on their side tonight and that is the absence of Russell Westbrook who is about as affective as Russell Wilson of the Broncos. Lakers are 5-2 ATS on the road against winning teams and Denver is 0-5 ATS at home against a team with a losing record. Take LA LAKERS! |

10-26-22 | Rockets +7.5 v. Jazz | 101-109 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
Houston at Utah 9:00 ET Rockets (+) over Jazz- The youthful Rockets posted their first win of the season Monday taking down the Jazz in Houston on Monday. Utah opened the year with three straight wins which was a surprise as Donovan Mitchell is gone and little is expected of the them this season. The Rockets are 5-1 ATS in their last six trips to the ‘Mile High City’ and Utah is 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. Take HOUSTON! |

10-26-22 | Nets +3.5 v. Bucks | 99-110 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 1 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Milwaukee 7:30 ET Nets (+) over Bucks- It looks like another year of turmoil coming out of Brooklyn with Kyrie Irving able to play more than just road games and Kevin Durant is still making his identity. Milwaukee is just more of Giannis as he’s now averaging over 30-points per game against the league and his career average is the highest against the Nets. The Bucks are No. 1 in NBA defense allowing just 96.5 ppg. Bucks just 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 home games. Take BROOKLYN! |

10-24-22 | Nuggets v. Blazers +5 | 110-135 | Win | 100 | 9 h 6 m | Show | |
Portland at Denver 10:10 ET Trailblazers (+) over Nuggets- Since dropping their opening game the Nuggets have won back-to-back games defeating the leagues best and worst in Golden State and Oklahoma City. Portland meanwhile is 3-0 as Damian Lillard is back healthy after missing 9 1/2 months of regular season play. The Nuggets were 3-1 in meetings last year and have won 14 of the last 18 straight-up but are 1-6 ATS in their last seven after a SU win while the Blazers are 6-2 ATS after a SU win. Take PORTLAND! |

10-24-22 | Bears +9 v. Patriots | Top | 33-14 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show |
Chicago at New England 8:15 ET Bears over Patriots- I know one thing it’s that is Bill Belichick is not afraid of making a quarterback change at anytime (see Bledsoe). Former Western Kentucky star QB threw for over 6,000 yards and 62 TD’s in his final season and had a great start for the Patriots winning a pair of games over Detroit and Green Bay going 51-of-70 for 596 yards with four TD’s and only one interception. Unlike Mac Jones or Zappe Bears QB Justin Fields is better off running the ball as opposed to throwing it. Bears growl on a Monday night. Take CHICAGO! |

10-24-22 | Jazz v. Rockets +2 | Top | 108-114 | Win | 100 | 7 h 22 m | Show |
Utah at Houston 8:00 ET Rockets (+) over Jazz- There were some major changes in Utah during the off season and I don’t mean the incarceration of Warren Jeffs. The Jazz traded away their best asset in Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert during the off-season and added four new faces who have them 3-0 (3-0 ATS). Houston may appear rto be the same old story but the are raw wit young talent that has yet to win 0-3 straight-up this season. Until tonight. Take HOUSTON! |

10-24-22 | Nets +1.5 v. Grizzlies | 124-134 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
Brooklyn at Memphis 8:00 ET Nets over Grizzlies- If I was able to root for any teams and against any teams I would be on the other side of this match-up. That’s because I ‘love’ the Grizzlies and really can’t stand Brooklyn (the team) and my heart is on the opposite sides of this one. But, the numbers just don’t figure for Memphis. Ben Simmons may have return to action but he still can’t shoot but rebounds and defense are his attributes and they help the Nets win tonight. Take BROOKLYN! |

Phoenix at L.A. Clippers 10:00 ET Suns (+) over Clippers- The Clippers have already started with their pulling players on he second night of back-to-back games. Both John Wall and Kawhi Leonard sat out the Clippers 111-109 over the Kings while Phoenix is off a a 113-11 loss at Portland and have player a pair of 2-point games a win and a defeat. The Clippers hold a fine 11-4 ATS record over the visiting Suns in LA. But, this time the Suns opened the favorite and that is huge. Take PHOENIX! |

Kansas City at San Francisco 4:25 ET 49ers (+) over Chiefs- Perfect spot for the Niners as the Chiefs come off a physical encounter against Buffalo. San Francisco was beaten down in Atlanta last week 28-14 and will be a little more focused this time out. At 3-3 the 49ers are in need of a win before falling too far back in the NFC West while Kansas City is 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall and 0-5 ATS in their last five visits to Sam Francisco. Niners 6-0 ATS last six at home and 6-0 ATS against teams with winning records. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

NY Jets at Denver 4:05 ET Broncos (-) over Jets- Well, after what we have seen so far this season some have come to realize that Denver has issues at QB with a slowed and aging Russell. The Jets have QB issues of their own as their No. 1 draft pick in 2021 Zach Wilson has completed 56% of his passes and improvement from last year’s 55%. Jets fall 26-0 at Denver last season and even with Brett Rypien at QB this time around they win easy! Take DENVER! |

New York Giants at Jacksonville 1:00 ET Jaguars (-) over Giants- My, my are the Giants in trouble here...and it is not me saying this it is the book makers, the guys that make the spread, blame them don’t get mad at me. How in heavens name can the Jaguars be the favorite here, has anybody been watching what is happening on the playing field. New York has won 5-of-6 while the Jacks have dropped three straight. It just doesn’t seem right and I will follow the bookies lead. Take JACKSONVILLE! |

Indianapolis at Tennessee 1:00 ET Colts (+) over Titans- How Tennessee has won any games at all is an accomplishment as they rank at or near the bottom in both NFL offensive and Defensive categories. The Titans are ranked No. 31 on offense (among 32) and No. 28 on defense ranking last in passing yards allowed. The Colts threw for 386 yards last week and will repeat that type of performance here. Take INDIANAPOLIS! |

Green Bay at Washington 1:00 ET Commandos (+) over Packers-The Pack must be done! Look at this price! Very cheap if you ask me. Aaron Rodgers QB rating is down over 30 points from his MVP 2020 season and down over 20 points in his2021 MLVP season. Washington will go with Taylor Heinicke and you could do worse as he is 7-9 as a starter and has the heart of a winner. Take WASHINGTON! |

Washington at California 10:30 ET Golden Bears (+) over Huskies- Former Indiana QB Michael Penix Jr. has exceeded passing for 300 yards in all seven games this season for the 5-2 Huskies. Last week he threw for 516 yards against Arizona in a 49-39 win but will find it a little tougher this week. California (3-3, 1-2) have lost back-to-back games including last weeks loss to lowly Colorado (0-5 prior the meeting). Bears will be ready to growl after that defeat and bring this down to the wire.

LA Clippers at Sacramento 10:00 ET Kings (+) over Clippers- There is something that I don’t trust about this opening line. The Clips are a meager favorite against a team that the had defeated 15 straight time on their court before a loss last December. Kawai Leonard returned to LA’s lineup for the first time in 16 months and should take tonight and half of the rest of the season off. Take SACRAMENTO! |

Minnesota at Penn State 7:30 ET Golden Gophers (+) over Nittany Lions- I’m looking for this to be the second part of what I call the ‘Bang-Bang’ theory. It is what happens to a team after they have suffered their first loss after an undefeated start. Penn State was mauled by the Wolverines last week dropping them to 5-1 on the year as they fell to No. 16 in the rankings. Minnesota lost their second straight after a 4-0 start as injuries took there toll. Gophers 32-15 ATS after aSU loss and 8-2 ATS on road in last 10 while the Lions are 6-20 ATS after a SU loss. Take MINNESOTA! |

Chip’s GOM Winner Texas at Oklahoma State 3:30 ET Longhorns (-) over Cowboys- Now let me get this, No. 20 Texas (5-2, 3-1) who just struggled at home to defeat Iowa State (24-21) go to Stillwater to face No. 11 Oklahoma State and open a 7-point favorite on the road. The Cowboys return home after blowing a 17-point lead to TCU and fall in double-OT after surrendering two TD’s in tjr final 1:47 to send the game into overtime. Texas is 26-10 lifetime in the series and the road team is 12-3 ATS in the last 15 meetings. Take TEXAS! |

10-22-22 | UCLA v. Oregon -6 | Top | 30-45 | Win | 100 | 23 h 6 m | Show |
UCLA at Oregon 3:30 ET Ducks (-) over Bruins- I expect that we will have very little company with ‘us’ on this one and that’s just the way I like it. Both clubs are coming off bye weeks with No. 9 UCLA (6-0, 3-0) visiting Eugene where No. 10 Oregon (5-1, 3-0) will be laying in wait as they are 19-8 ATS following a bye week. The Ducks are 12-3 against the Bruins since 2000 and has won 9-of-10 last meetings. Bo Nix is maturing as QB after a career (not much of one) at Auburn and he can match Thompson-Robinson’s numbers. Take OREGON! |

10-22-22 | Purdue v. Wisconsin -2 | 24-35 | Win | 100 | 22 h 20 m | Show | |
Purdue at Wisconsin 3:30 ET Badgers (-) over Boilermakers- It has been such a down year for the Badgers and losing to Michigan State at home has got to feel horrible as the Spartans are one of the Big Ten doormats this season. Purdue has one of my Heisman favorites in Aidan O’Connell led them to their fourth straight win over Nebraska 43-37 (not much to brag about) as they move to 3-1 in the conference. The Badgers have won 15 straight in this series and at this level for some reason the beat goes on. Take WISCONSIN! |

10-21-22 | Nuggets +5 v. Warriors | 128-123 | Win | 100 | 10 h 44 m | Show | |
Denver at Golden State 1-:00 ET Nuggets (+) over Warriors- These appears to me to be a very short price for the Warriors at home where they are 39-19-2 ATS in their last 60 home games. Golden State is 7-3-1 ATS against Denver when hosting and 11-2-1 ATS on Fridays. Look for the Nuggets who are 8-3 ATS on the road against teams with winning records. The return of Jamal Murray and Michael Porter will help the Nuggets. Take DENVER! |

Phoenix at Portland 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Suns- The Suns staged a huge comeback in their opener winning over Dallas after trailing by 22-points in the third quarter. Now they take to the road and visit the Trailblazers who won their opener at Sacramento 115-108 where they are 1-4 ATS in their last five. The Blazers have a new look and it should work better than their previous seasons. Take PORTLAND! |

10-21-22 | UAB +1.5 v. Western Kentucky | Top | 17-20 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 36 m | Show |
UAB at Western Kentucky 8:00 ET Blazers (+) over Hilltoppers- Bailey Zappe may not be starting for the Patriots Monday night but he will be paying attention to his high scoring Alma mater as the Hilltoppers are 17th in the nation averaging 490 ypg. UAB is not that far behind averaging 450 ypg themselves but the Blazers have the stronger defense allowing just 319 ypg ranking No. 20. Defense will be the difference...Take UAB |

10-21-22 | Celtics v. Heat +2.5 | Top | 111-104 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 21 m | Show |
Boston at Miami 7:30 ET Heat (+) over Celtics- I’d like to make a coaching comparison between these two but the jury is still out on the Celtics change at that position as their former coach couldn’t keep it in his pants with female subordinate and is on double-secret probation for at least a year. Miami coach Eric Spoelstra is probably the most under-rated coach on the NBA and he will have he Heat ready to rebound from their opening loss to the Bulls. Take MIAMI! |

L.A. Clippers at L.A. Lakers- Lakers (+) over Clippers- The Clippers swept the Lakers last season winning all four games and have won seven straight meetings. The Lakers are already 0-1 as they fell to Golden State on opening night. But, Anthony Davis is back and healthy (?) and the Lakers will be the first to see the return of Kawhi Leonard who hasn’t play in an NBA game in over 16 months. The Lakers still believe they are contenders for the title and look to show what they have tonight. Take LAKERS! |

New Orleans at Arizona 8:15 ET Saints (+) over Diamondbacks- So, you think that Kliff Kingsbury can coach? Well, let’s think this thing over again. This is a guy that said ‘we don’t practice like professionals.’ What, hey you are the head coach, practice is your responsibility. The 2-4 Cardinals have a quarterback that isn’t willing to put in the extra time it takes to be a winner. Arizona is 2-4 and defensive injuries hit them hard last week. Take NEW ORLEANS! |

\Virginia at Georgia Tech 7:30 ET Cavaliers (+) over Yellow Jackets- Neither of these clubs have been very impressive as Georgia Tech has won their last two to even their record at 3-3 while Virginia continues to slide and is 2-4 and 0-3 in ACC action dropping four-of-five. Tech has an interim coach Brent Key and he is 2-0 while the Cavaliers have first year head coach Tony Elliott who spent 11 years as a Clemson assistant. Cavs are 13-4 ATS after a bye week and the Jackets are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games and 2-11 ATS after a straight-up win. Take VIRGINIA! |

Dallas at Phoenix 10:00 ET Suns (-) over Mavericks- I think there is good reason to back the Suns here as their season came to an end last year when Dallas defeated them in Games 6 and 7 of the playoffs by over 30-points in each game. Regular season action has Phoenix 10-4 ATS in last 14 as hosts versus Mavericks. The Mavs are 1-6 ATS in last seven road games while the Suns are 4-1 ATS in their five regular season home games. Take PHOENIX! |

Portland at Sacramento 10:00 ET Trailblazers (+) over Kings- Neither of these two clubs made to expanded NBA playoffs last season and for Portland it was the first time they missed the postseason in eight years whereas the Kings have not made the playoffs in 16 seasons. There’s a new coach in Sacramento in Mike Brown the former Lakers and Cavaliers leader. Alvin Gentry replace Luke Walton after 17 games last season and the Kings weren’t much better after the change. Same old...take PORTLAND! |

New Orleans at Brooklyn 7:30 ET Pelicans (+) over Nets- This game should draw plenty of attention as Kyrie Irving and Zion Williamson are the ones people want to see. Williamson of course hasn’t played since May 2021 missing the entire last season last year and of course Irving plays when he wants too. Kevin Durant is his same self and hating the coach more than he likes basketball. James Harden is gone and that might be a plus but how they handle Ben Simmons will tell the tale. Take PELICANS! |

Denver at L.A. Chargers 8:15 ET Broncos (+) over Chargers- Entering last week’s game in Cleveland the Chargers were last in rushing in the NFL but a breakout game by Austin Ekeler moved them up 10 spots. Justin Herbert was his usual self and when he is they are hard to beat. Denver got what they wanted by signing Russel Wilson and they are beginning to realize what they actually have...and for four more years after this. LA has covered their last two while Denver is 0-2 getting beat 12-9 last week at Indy but they are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games after scoring less than 10 points. Add that LA is 5-13 ATS at home against teams with losing records.Take DENVER! |

Dallas at Philadelphia 8:20 ET Eagles (-) over Cowboys- Unbeaten Cooper Rush will likely be under center Sunday night when his Dallas Cowboys visit the unbeaten Philadelphia Eagles. Rush is 4-0 as the starter since Dak Prescott broke a bone in his throwing thumb in the season opener. Prescott is not expected to be ready for the primetime NFC East showdown between the Cowboys (4-1) and Eagles (5-0). Jalen Hurts has emerged as an early MVP candidate in his third season, passing for 1,359 yards and four touchdowns and rushing for 266 yards and six scores.Hurts is 1-2 against Dallas with five turnovers (four interceptions, one lost fumble) and three TD passes. The Eagles rank No. 2 in the NFL in total offense (419.8 yards per game) and No. 4 in rushing (160.0). Take PHILADELPHIA! |

New York at Cleveland 7:00 ET Yankees over Indians (oops I done it again)- After yesterday’s heartbreaking loss it is difficult to see how the Yankees can pick them selves up facing elimination. The answer is Gerrit Cole (1-0, 1.42 ERA 2022) who’s postseason record is outstanding. he is 9-5 with a 2.83 in 15 career postseason starts. that’s all that needs to be said. Take NEW YORK |

Buffalo at Kansas City 4:05 ET Chiefs (+) over Bills- The Chiefs (4-1) and Bills (4-1) are tied for best record in the AFC. This will be the fifth meeting in the past two-plus seasons, with the teams splitting two regular-season contests and Kansas City winning a pair of playoff games. Mahomes leads the NFL with 15 touchdown passes while throwing for 1,398 yards and two interceptions. He threw four touchdown passes to Kelce in Monday night's 30-29 home win over the Las Vegas Raiders. It marks the 15th time he has thrown four or more scoring passes in a regular-season game. Josh Allen leads the NFL with 1,651 passing yards, including a career-high 424 yards in last Sunday's 38-3 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He threw four touchdowns, all in the first half, to raise his season count to 14 against four interceptions. Take KANSAS CITY! |

Cincinnati at New Orleans 1:00 ET Saints (+) over Bengals- The Bengals (2-3) have struggled thus far to regain the form that brought them to the Super Bowl last season. All three of the Bengals' losses have come on a field goal on the final play of the game. It has dropped from No. 13 to No. 22 in total offense, from No. 7 to No. 12 in passing offense and from No. 7 to No. 16 in scoring. New Orleans put together a complete offensive game for the first time this season in a 39-32 home victory against Seattle that ended a three-game losing streak last Sunday. Saints starting quarterback Jameis Winston has missed the last two games because of back and ankle injuries and has been replaced by Andy Dalton, who started 133 games for Cincinnati from 2011-19.

Tampa Bay at Pittsburgh 1:00 ET Steelers (+) over Buccaneers- The Steelers (1-4) return to play at home this weekend, but they will host Tom Brady's Tampa Buccaneers. While the Steelers defense will have plenty to worry about with Brady and the Tampa Bay offense, the Buccaneers (3-2) are also armed with a stout defense that could pose some problems for Pittsburgh rookie Kenny Pickett. After going whooped 38-3 last week I expect a prideful effort out of the Steelers. Take PITTSBURGH! |

San Francisco at Atlanta 1:00 ET Falcons (+) over 49ers- Last week the San Francisco defense was as dominant as the offense, limiting the Panthers to 64 yards rushing, recording six sacks and getting a 41-yard TD interception return from cornerback Emmanuel Moseley. Playing without injured running back Cordarrelle Patterson, who went on injured reserve with a knee injury, and standout tight end Kyle Pitts, the Falcons (2-3) were held to a season-low point total in a 21-15 loss at Tampa Bay in Week 5. Rookie Tyler Allgeier and second-year back Caleb Huntley rushed for a combined 79 yards in the defeat. The Falcons hope to get Pitts (hamstring) back into game action against the 49ers after he returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday. He had four catches for 77 yards when the clubs met last December. Take ATLANTA! |

USC at Utah 8:00 ET Utes (-) over Trojans- No. 20 Utah (4-2, 2-1) was expected to be the team from the west to rep the Pac-12 in the College Football Playoff, but after dropping their second game of the season to UCLA last week that dream has disappeared. But, the Utes still have a chance to repeat as conference champs. USC (6-0, 4-0) is now the clubs that the media has embraced and they are ready to trip up here. The home team is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings and the trojans are 2-7 ATS in their last nine conference games while the Utes are 19-8 ATS in their last 27 Pac-12 game. Take UTAH! |

Alabama at Tennessee 3:30 ET Crimson Tide (-) over Volunteers- No. 1 Alabama (6-0, 3-0) has won 15 in-a-row against the No. 6 Volunteers who are led by QB Hendon Hooker who leads the SEC with a 175 QB rating. The question for the Tide is will QB Bryce young be ready to play and he needs to play after what we saw last week from the crimson offense. Well, that might not matter because Hooker (I just love that, where’s Dandy Don) hasn’t faced a defense like Alabama’s. ‘Bama averages 6.99 ypr and only allows 250 ypg on defense. Vols learn how far they have to go. ALABAMA. |
