Temple ML - 140 vs St Louis (2-unit play)...Temple is better then the young Bilikens. This game will be close and likely quite boring to watch, as the total is posted at 110 points for the game. Temple is much better offensively and that gives them the edge here. Continue reading ...

Light day today in NCAA and NBA Hoops... Make sure to check the MSP Premium Page for selections. This will be a pay for picks service, but MSP Premium is offering free selections all month to show the value of a premium pick site.... (CBB) Georgetown +6 vs West Virginia... The Hoyas are free falling and they need to get things turned around quickly. They need to put their best game on the floor tonight in front of a national audience in Morgantown. Meanwhile the Mountaineers charmed life at ho... Continue reading ...

Not much time to write these up, but we have two selections today... Northwestern +2 at Penn State...Look for the Wildcats to get some revenge for a home loss a couple of weeks ago that effectively shut out Northwestern from the Big Dance. UConn ML -160 vs Louisville...Huskies look like they have righted the ship just in time. Louisville is not near the class of Villanova, and we all saw what UCONN did to them earlier this week.

 12:00 noon start time for what at least on the surface appears to be an easy win... Pittsburgh -2 or ML -140 vs St Johns... Yes the Panthers got spanked earlier this week against an inferior Notre Dame team, still the Panthers have to be able to bounce back and win this game at MSG against an even inferior team in the Red Storm. Something seems odd that this line is only -2....If this game were in Pittsburgh I think the line would be 8 or 9. No way does home court mean that much in this game. ... Continue reading ...

3:00PM United States vs Finland.... Team USA has been riding high this whole tournament, and if you believe the hype you'd already have conceded this game as a formality...big mistake. USA has won 4-straight games but in reality they have only beaten 1-good team...Canada. They beat Norway, big deal... and the Swiss twice, but struggled to do so both times. Finland has talent and can win this game. Worth a shot to go for FINLAND. Also suggest playing the OVER in this game, its posted at 4.5 go... Continue reading ...

Friday NCAA play....
Niagara -3 vs Manhattan...The Purple-Eagles are making a late-season run like they always do. To get into the NCAA they'll need to win the MAAC tournament...needless to say this is a game they should win too. The Jaspers aren't super in the MAAC and more importantly they have no home court atmosphere. This is a win for the Purple Eagles all the way. We might back both the spread and the ML for added unit gain here!

Here are the only three NCAA games that we are playing Sunday...
(CBB) Villanova -2 at Pittsburgh...Wildcats have been resting for a few days, meanwhile Pittsburgh had a big road win on Thursday night beating Marquette. Wildcats need to step-up if they want a #1 seed. We suggest they get it done.
(CBB) Wisconsin v Northwestern Over 121...Last week at home the Badgers shredded Indiana. Expecting the same fate here for a Wildcats squad that has squandered their hopes of an NCAA bid,
(CBB) Ohio... Continue reading ...

(NBA) San Antonio ML -3 at Philly (2U play)... Looking to the Spurs to expose the 76èrs much like the Heat did to them here on Wednesday night. Flat out the Spurs are the better team and Philly will have little in the way of defense of Ginobli and Duncan. Really like the Spurs here, small price to pay. Continue reading ...

 California - 6 at Oregon State (3U play)...Without question this is a big mis-match as the Bears are a high scoring team and the Beavers are anything but. Cal has a habit of pulling no-shows in their conference games so far this season, and its costing them seeding in the NCAA tournament. Bears get their act together here and easily win over a Beaver squad that has virtually no "A" talent. Pittsburgh +6.5 at Marquette (2U play)...What do we know about Marquette? They play close games, so with ... Continue reading ...

Blog has been having some issues with posting lately...Here are some NCAA winners for Wednesday:
We have three plays...
(CBB) Seton Hall PK at St John's (2U play)...We're going to play the better offensive team here in a match-up of lower tier Big-East squads. If the Pirates top players play their game Seton Hall can and should win this game.
(CBB) UAB PK at Southern Mississipi (2U play)...Here again we go back to the well for the UAB Blazers. We've played this team several times this season. Th... Continue reading ...

Relatively light night today in the NCAA. I purused the board up and down but in the end will just focus on the 9PM prime time Big-12 game... (CBB) Texas A&M +8.0 vs Kansas (1Uplay/SB)...Big home game for the Aggies tonight, a win almost assures them of getting off the bubble and into the NCAA tournament, a blowout won't look good, so one has to think they give it there all and hang in there with the Jayhawks. I expect a loud and racous crowd and that should keep the Aggies within the 8-points... Continue reading ...

Looking for some Valentine's Day magic? Here are 3 picks for today...
(CBB) Seton Hall vs DePaul Over 137 (4Uplay)...Like this game a lot as Seton Hall has been an offensive force at home. the Blue Demons will attempt to control tempo but its not going to work. The Prudential Centre score board will show 75+ points at the end of the game for the Pirates, assuming the Demons stay relatively close puts this one over.
(CBB) Marist +19.5 vs Niagara (1Uplay)...Niagara will have a minor let-down here... Continue reading ...

Light night in the sports world as the NBA is shut-down for All-Star Weekend, and men's college hoops gears up for a busy Saturday. So with just one Top-25 game and some secondary conferences we're only looking at one big play tonight... (CBB) West Virginia vs Pitt Over 127 (5U play/SB)...Second meeting in two weeks and the Panthers will be out for revenge. I think they come out flying tonight and that means West Virginia will need to play catch-up which means they'll be more impatient and try... Continue reading ...

(NBA) Charlotte Bobcats -2 at Minnesota (2U Play/BM)... First pick tonight is in the NBA where we'll back the Charlotte Bobcats as they head into Minnesota to play the T-Wolves. Charlotte is clearly the better squad here, that being said they have struggled on the road most of the season. If however we look back at their most recent west-coast trip we do see some solid efforts, even though they did come up short on some of those ocasions. That trip was against way better teams then they'll fa... Continue reading ...

(NBA) Chicago Bulls +2 at Indiana (2.0U play/BM)...Our first pick tonight goes in the NBA as we back the Chicago Bulls as a small dog on the road against Indiana. The Pacers have played well the past 10-days but we expect a let-down eventually and why not tonight? against a good defensive ball club in the Bulls. Pacers recent wins have all been against a team will flaws, Toronto (defense), Detroit (offense). Tonight they'll meet up with a Bull's unit that is decent on both sides. Not great......

Looking to College Basketball Monday to get the week off on a high-note. Playing three games, including two of the national TV games. 69.5% NCAA Men's Basketball record last week, and that was actually near 80% until a poor showing Sunday afternoon... (CBB) Niagara -1 at Rider (2 Units/SB)... Our first play is in the MAAC where we've pencilled in the Purple Eagles to get the win on the road against Rider. These two teams met a couple of weeks ago and Rider pulled off the upset. The Purple Eag... Continue reading ...

We'll go on record here in print that we are fully endorsing the New Orleans Saints. We've got the Saints +5 for 5.00 Units, and we also recommend a 3.00 unit wager on the Saints versus the money-line. The end result will be determined just after 10PM Eastern...If we hit these plays we'll be 1/2 way to our guaranteed 50.00 unit gain by the end of February. If we lose (and it could happen) we're back to square one...not the greatest but not down either. We could even hit the middle play too, w... Continue reading ...

 (CBB) Gonzaga +4.5 at Memphis (2U play/BM)...Precedence alone suggests this is the play. The Bulldogs go out of conference again travelling east to play the Tigers. Earlier this year the Zags' have made some impressive trips out east, and one has to think they step up their game today again. The West Coast Conference provides the Bulldogs with little challenge so they'll be ready to go in Memphis today. Meanwhile the Tigers have talent, but they're not as good as they have been in recent year... Continue reading ...

 (NFL) New Orleans +5 vs Indianapolis (5U play)... I think this much about the Superbowl...the game will be close. Common sense tells you that when you think the game will be close you should back the team taking the points. We're taking the Saints. Manning is an absolute gem at QB, but after that the Saints player for player with the odd exception match up well against the Colts. It should be a great game, amid all the pomp and pagentry of the night there actually is a game. We're on the Sain... Continue reading ...

We expect to get this back tonight as the Devils play at home, Brodeur will be between the pipes, and the Prudential Center will be a buzz with the arrival of Ilya Kovalchuk. Maple Leafs were boosted on Tuesday by the buzz of their recent trade, and we expect the same here. Wierd scenario here as this is the 3... Continue reading ...

Expecting a double digit win here at home on a Friday night. Iona will keep it close but eventually the Saints will go on a run and earn the sweep over Iona. Doubtful that the Saints lose a game in regular-season MAAC play...Go Saints! Continue reading ...

(NCAA-B) Georgia Tech vs Duke Over 143 (3U Play)...Revenge and redemption will be on the minds of Blue Devil players tonight when they play host to ACC rival Georgia Tech. The Jackets beat Duke earlier in January, and everyone saw Duke stink up the Verizon Centre last Saturday in a national TV game vs Georgetown. Look for the Devils to come out firing on all cylinders tonight. We believe this should send this game well over the 143 total. Expect the total to continue to rise so get in on the ...

That's two-straight for a team that had previously lost a tonne of games in a row. The Wild are pretty solid at home hence they've garnered our support here. Go Wild! Continue reading ...

Ohio State has dominated at home recently, since the return of Evan Turner as they have blown away Northwestern and Minnesota. Penn State is insuperior to either of these squads. Vegas spread in this game is -14.5, which by its very nature suggests some points will be scored. The total here is under 130-points because the Lions struggle of... Continue reading ...

 (NHL) New Jersey -155 at Toronto (2U play)...these teams played last Friday night and the Devils prevailed. Leafs returned home the next night and choked a three goal lead against the Canucks. They then proceeded to trade what seems like most of their talented goal scorers away. That move may work out in the long run, but all it does for this season is make the Maple Leafs fodder for talented teams like the Devils. Hopefully Brodeur goes in this one, even if he doesn't you can argue support f... Continue reading ...

We're going to play the under here. For loyal followers you all know we tend to rarely play a total under, just because in some wierd sort of way it seems to take away from the exitement of the game.

Bears have been on a bit of a roll in conference play, where as State has been in a bit of a rut including a drubbing at the hands of intra-state rival Arizona this past weekend.

Minnesota got gassed last night by the Knicks, so one has to think they at least attempt to play a better defense tonight. As for the Cav's they tend to shut down inferior opponents defensively, so we can expect Minnesota to score more than 90-points here. Cav's should have this one in the bag so they'll likely open the bench up late keep... Continue reading ...

Down to eight women in the first grand-slam event of 2010. Here are my fearless predictions (along with a couple bonus selections from the men's draw)... Henin -260 vs Petrova - Justine Henin has shown well at this event, stiff challenge here but we believe she will prevail and reach the final four. (Risk 1.30U to Win 0.50) Kirilenko +110 vs Zheng - Maria Kirilenko made it to this round because her opponent in the last round withdrew due to injury, she should be fresh and hungry here as the sli...

AFC - NY Jets +8 vs Indianapolis (3U play)...Now that we can get the benefit of that eighth point I will lean towards the Jets here. They are brimming with confidence and they have the talent defensively to win this game. The key will be to keep Peyton Manning off the field and that means converting first downs!!! Should be a good game. J-E-T-S....Jets! Jets! Jets! NFC - Minnesota +3.5 at New Orleans (3U ... Continue reading ...

Mav's should be fresh as they've had a day in between here, so despite being on the road all week, have to believe Mavericks win this game. (NBA) Detroit -3.5 vs Indiana (1.1U Play)...Pacers stink.
