3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Rhode Island/Fordham under 123½ -110

I just don't see these two teams combining for more than 120 points. It's going to be real tough here for Fordham to score. Rhode Island is outstanding at defending the 3-pointer and Fordham is dead last in the A-10 in 2-point shooting percentage. 

In last year's lone meeting between these two teams, both shot under 35% from the field. Fordham comes in having failed to reach 60 points in a game in 8 straight. The Rams are averaging a mere 50.8 ppg in their last 5. They have also been locking down defensively, as they only give up 62.8 ppg in league play. 

UNDER is 10-3 in Fordham's last 13 conference games, 12-3 in their last 15 at home and 6-0 in their last 6 after scoring 55 or less in a conference game. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB - Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on TCU +3½ -110

I love the value here with TCU as a small road dog against the Cyclones. Iowa State followed up a 20-point loss at Kansas last Monday with a 30-point loss at home to Texas Tech. Cyclones are now 1-3 SU and ATS since losing their best player and potential NBA lottery pick Tyrese Haliburton. 

In the 3 games they haven't covered they have failed to do so by an average of 16.0 ppg. There's definitely reason to believe it could get ugly for ISU, even at home. Haliburton had a triple double (22 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists) in a loss at TCU earlier this season. 

TCU may only have a couple more wins in Big 12 play, but they have won 2 of their last 3, most recently knocking off a ranked West Virginia team at home in OT. Horned Frogs will be coming into this one with a lot of confidence. 

Cyclones are 1-6 ATS last 7 games vs a team with a winning record. Take TCU! 

4* NCAAB - Sharp Money HEAVY HITTER on Bowling Green +1½ -109

The Falcons are definitely worth a look here as a small home dog against the Zips. No way should Bowling Green by getting points at home in this one. Akron is simply overvalued having won 5 straight. The Falcons are 12-1 on their home floor and come in playing well with 11 wins in their last 13 games. 

It just so happens one of those was a double-digit loss at Akron. Revenge will also be a key factor here in favor of Bowling Green. Last time out the Falcons didn't play their best, but still found a way to beat a good Ohio team 62-61. That win is another positive. Falcons are 13-4 ATS last 17 off a home conference win. Take Bowling Green! 

5* NCAAB - Vegas Insider PLAY OF THE MONTH on West Virginia -5 -109

I love the value here with West Virginia laying a small number on the road against Texas. The Big 12 has 2 elite teams in Baylor and Kansas, two top tier squads in West Virginia and Texas Tech and then a bunch of mediocre to bad teams. I think the books have struggled to price teams like the Mountaineers high enough in road games. 

It's going to take a near perfect game for Texas to win this contest. They haven't beat one of the top 4 teams yet. They are 6-8 in league play with their wins coming against Kansas State, Oklahoma St, TCU and ISU. The Horned Frogs, who are 6-8, are the only one of those 4 with a Big 12 mark better than 4-10. 

Texas has lost at home to baylor, Texas Tech, Kansas and Oklahoma in Big 12 play. I know they have won two straight, but I don't think playing at home will be enough. West Virginia is just too good. Longhorns are 5-15 ATS last 20 home games off a win and 1-8 ATS last 9 times they have been off two or more wins. Take West Virginia! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas Oddsmakers LINE MISTAKE on Canisius +3½ -108

I really like this price with the Canisius as a small road dog against the Jaspers. No one is going to want to back the Golden Griffins right now, as they have lost 4 straight and 7 of 4 overall. Thing is, it's not going much better for Manhattan, who has lost 3 straight and failed to cover 7 of their last 10 overall. 

This has been the money spot for the Griffins, who are 9-1 ATS last 10 times they have been on the road with a total in the 130's. Canisius is also 12-3-2 ATS last 17 as an underdog. Road team has gone 20-5-1 ATS last 26 games in this series with the underdog cashing in 4 of the last 5. Take Canisius! 

5* NCAAB - American Athletic PLAY OF THE WEEK on Temple -2½ -109

The Owls are definitely worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Pirates. Temple has been playing much better here of late. The Owls have won 4 of 6 and are fresh off a double-OT win at home against UConn. 

I just think we are getting some value with Temple because of their losing mark of 6-7 in the AAC. It's really not asking much for the Owls to win here by a few points. ECU has lost 3 straight and 9 of their last 11 overall. They just played a brutal 3 game stretch in 8 days against Tulsa, Cincinnati and Memphis. 

These two already played once this season and the Owls won by 12 at home. Temple has covered 5 straight games vs a losing straight up record. The favorites has also covered 7 of the last 10 meetings in the series. Take Temple! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Idaho State +9½ -110

I really like the value here with the Bengals as a near double-digit home dog against Northern Colorado. The Bears come in having won 3 straight and 6 of 7 overall. They are also sitting T-2nd in the Big Sky at 11-4, while Idaho State is tied for last in the league with a mark of just 3-12. 

Key here is the Bengals really matchup well with Northern Colorado. Bears have struggled against teams who are strong offensive rebounding teams. Idaho State is No. 3 in that department in the Big Sky. Bengals also defend the 3-ball at a high rate and that's a big part of the Northern Colorado offensive attack. Idaho State also struggles with turnovers and Bears are 296th in forcing mistakes. 

Also a bit of a letdown spot for Northern Colorado, who is a mere 9-22 ATS last 31 after playing 4 straight games as a favorite. Take Idaho State! 

5* NCAAB - Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Virginia Tech +17 -110

I love the value here with Virginia Tech catching a massive number on the road against the Blue Devils. Hokies are coming off a 3OT game against Miami on Wednesday, but they will be able to recover enough in 3 days to give a max effort here against Duke. 

I'm sure most will be counting on the Blue Devils to bounce back with a big game after not leading for a single second in a 22-point loss at NC State. While I have little doubt that Duke will win this game outright, I don't see them pulling away. 

One thing that the Blue Devils love to do is get out and run off of turnovers. Those chances will be extremely limited in this one. Virginia Tech is 5th best in the country in offensive turnover rate. Duke is also just 1-4 ATS last 5 times they have been listed as a favorite. Take Virginia Tech! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on Florida/Kentucky under 139 -114

I really like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's big SEC showdown between No. 10 Kentucky and Florida. The books just can't seem to get the number right on the total when these two face off. Since Mike White took over at Florida the UNDER has cashed in 6 of 8 games. 

I don't see them eclipsing the mark in this one. Both of these teams are playing well on the defensive side of the ball. Florida just held Arkansas to 59 in their last game and are giving up just 63.5 ppg over their last 4. Kentucky's opponents are shooting a mere 38% against them in SEC play and the Wildcats are allowing just 62.8 ppg at home on the season. 

Kentucky has won 5 straight and when they are on a run like this their games tend to go UNDER. In fact, UNDER is 10-1 in their last 11 when playing on a winning streak of 5 or more. UNDER is also 10-2 in Gators last 12 on the road with a total of 130 to 139.5. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Georgia -2½ -109

Easy play here on the Bulldogs as a small road favorite against the Commodores. Georgia snapped their recent skid in style, knocking off Auburn 65-55 Wednesday. I look for the Bulldogs to carry that momentum into this one against a struggling Vanderbilt team. 

Commodores suffered their 4th straight loss and fell to 1-12 in SEC play with a heartbreaking 61-65 loss at Tennessee. Vanderbilt just can't score at a high enough rate to be taken seriously. They have shot 40% or worse from the field in 4 straight and 11 of 12 games overall. It doesn't matter if you are home or away. You aren't going to win often if you can't shoot at least 40% from the field. 

Commodores are a mere 1-8 ATS at home off a conference road loss, 3-12 ATS last 15 conference home games overall and 0-7 ATS last 7 as a home dog of 6 points or less. Take Georgia! 

4* NCAAB - Sharp Money HEAVY HITTER on SMU +1½ -108

The Mustangs are definitely worth a look here at basically a pick'em on the road against the Golden Hurricane. This is a prime bounce back spot for SMU, coming off an ugly loss at Tulane, who even with the win is still dead last in the AAC at 3-11. 

Note it wasn't a huge surprise to see them come out flat in that game, as they were only a few days removed from a dramatic 73-72 overtime win at home against Houston. The same Cougars team that just annihilated Tulsa 76-43 on Wednesday.

I just don't see the Golden Hurricane being able to keep pace with this juggernaut of an offense that SMU sends out. Especially when the Mustangs figure to clean up on the offensive glass when they do miss. Mustangs are 20th in offensive rebounding. Tulsa is 210 in defensive rebounding. 

Mustangs are 7-3 ATS last 10 games as a dog, while Golden Hurricane are 7-15 ATS last 22 as a home favorite. Road team has also gone a staggering 21-5-1 ATS in the last 27 meetings. Take SMU! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Virginia/Pittsburgh under 112 -115

The UNDER is worth a look here in Saturday's ACC matchup that has Pitt hosting Virginia. It's no secret that the Cavaliers are a strong defensive team. The key here is the matchup. Virginia does an outstanding job of forcing team to beat them with jump shots. They just don't give you many easy looks at the rim. 

Shooting is not a strength of the Panthers, especially from deep. Pitt ranks a miserable 329th in the country in 3-point percentage. Last year the Panthers could only muster 49 points in a loss at Virginia. The previous year they only scored 37 at home. I think getting to 50 in this one will be a struggle. 

Virginia's offense is nothing to write home about either and the Cavaliers only average 56.2 ppg away from home this season and are scoring just 58.9 ppg in ACC play. 

UNDER is 17-5 in Pitt's last 22 as a home dog and 8-1 in their last 9 at home off a road loss by 10 or more. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB - Early Bird Total ENFORCER on Kansas/Baylor under 129½ -110

I really like the UNDER in Saturday's massive Big 12 matchup between No. 3 Kansas and No. 1 Baylor. Not only is this a matchup of two Top 5 teams, but for Kansas they have to win to have any shot at the Big 12 title, as they already lost at home to the Bears earlier this season. This could also play a big part in a No. 1 seed for the Big Dance. 

Either way, I'm confident both teams are going to show up for this one with everything they got. I With how strong these two are defensively, I just don't see them eclipsing 130 points. Baylor is No. 3 in the country in defensive efficiency and KU is No. 2. These two only combined for 122 in their first meeting this season. 

UNDER is 15-5 in Kansas' last 20 vs a team with a winning record and 8-2 in their last 10 when facing a top tier team that's outscoring opponents by 8+ points/game. UNDER is also 8-0 in Jayhawks last 8 on the road when they come in having won 8 of their last 10. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on VCU/St. Louis under 133½ -115

The UNDER is definitely worth a look in Friday's A-10 matchup that has the Billikens hosting VCU. I think we are going to see both of these teams come out with a big effort here to try and save their season. Both teams have struggled recently and have just 5-games left before the A-10 Tournament. It might not be enough, but 5 straight could get them in the conversation for the Big Dance. 

Either way, I think this is going to be a low scoring game. VCU's offense has completely abandoned them here of late. It started with a mere 67 points against a bad George Mason defense, then they managed just 59 at Richmond and 61 at home against Dayton. Hard to see them snapping out of this funk on the road, against a St Louis team that needs their defense to play well to make up for their inefficiencies on offense. 

UNDER has cashed in 12 of the last 16 home games for St Louis if they are off a game they didn't cover. It's also 11-4 in their last 15 as an underdog and 8-2 in their last 10 vs a team with a winning record. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB - Horizon League PLAY OF THE MONTH on Oakland -3½ -109

I really like the value here with the Grizzlies laying a short number at home against Milwaukee. Oakland comes into this game ride a wave of momentum off back-to-back wins. The first time since early November that they strung two together two wins in a row. 

There strong play really goes back to late January, which was about the same time that transfer Rashad Williams started to get comfortable with his new team. Williams didn't make his debut until Jan. 16. After averaging just 12 ppg in his first 3 games, Williams has exploded for 25.3 ppg in his last 6. He's only played 9 games and made 39 shots from behind the 3-point line. That's second most on the team, just 6 behind the leader. 

I just don't think people realize how different a team Oakland is. They just look at their overall numbers and see a mediocre team that is 7-9 in a small conference like the Horizon. I just think with how they are playing and Milwaukee off a crushing 4-point loss at home to rival Green Bay, this price is way to low on the Grizzlies. Take Oakland! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night Total NO-BRAINER on Santa Clara/BYU under 153½ -110

I really like the value with the UNDER in tonight's WCC action that has Santa Clara visiting Provo to take on the Cougars. There's going to be some scoring in this one, but nothing like what the number is suggesting. 

Santa Clara is a team that is prone to foul trouble. They are 9th out of 10 in the WCC in defensive foul rate. Good news for them is BYU is the worst in the conference at getting to the free throw line and it's not close. When the Broncos have faced similar teams who struggle to get to the line, the games have been much lower scoring than anticipated. UNDER is 8-1 in Santa Clara's last 9 vs a team that's attempting 18 or fewer free throws a game at least 15+ games into the season. 

Santa Clara also doesn't figure to score a ton in this one. The Broncos only average 67.5 ppg on the road, where they are shooting a miserable 40% from the field. In their last two games they failed to score more than 61 points. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB - Big Ten Total PLAY OF THE MONTH on Michigan State/Nebraska over 151 -110

This might seem like a big total for what figures to be a lopsided matchup between the Cornhuskers and Spartans. I don't think it's high enough. I look for these two to fly past the number. 

I don't care how bad Michigan State is playing coming into this game, they aren't going to lose this game because they can't score. Nebraska just gave up 81 on their home floor to Wisconsin, who likes to play at a snails pace. In their last 5 games the Cornhuskers are giving up 80.8 ppg. A lot of that is bad defense, but it's part of the pace they like to play at, as they lead the Big Ten in tempo. 

I know Nebraska's offense isn't great and Michigan State's defense is one of the top units in the Big Ten. I just don't see the Spartans being 100% locked in defensively with how easy it will be for them to score and just how much more talented they are. These two played last March to a combined score of 167 in a 91-76 Spartans win. I could see something similar here. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Ohio State/Iowa over 143 -105

I like the value with the OVER between Ohio State and Iowa. The Hawkeyes are coming off an extremely low-scoring game by their standards, as they won 58-55 at Minnesota on Sunday. The previous low for points scored by Iowa on the season was 67 in a win over Maryland.

As for the defense allowing 55, that's just not who the Hawkeyes are. Iowa is giving up 75 ppg in Big Ten play. I just think with the way the Hawks like to push the tempo and the likelihood that they shoot well at home, this thing is going to approach 150 points. 

Ohio State should definitely score. Buckeyes are an excellent 3-point shooting team (No. 1 Big Ten) and Iowa gives up a ton of good looks from deep. The Hawks also offer little resistance inside. OVER is 4-1 in Iowa's last 5 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games and 14-6 in Buckeyes last 20 vs a team with a winning record. Take the OVER! 

5* NCAAB - ACC Total PLAY OF THE MONTH on Syracuse/Louisville over 140 -118

I absolutely love the OVER in Wednesday's ACC matchup between Syracuse and Louisville. These are two of the top teams in the conference in offensive efficiency. Duke leads the ACC with a 112.8 offensive efficiency rating. Louisville is No. 2 at 108.8 and Syracuse is No. 3 at 106.8. Notre Dame and FSU are the only other teams with a rating over 99.7. 

You have to be the Cardinals are going to put up a bunch of points in this one. Louisville is averaging 77.2 ppg on 48% shooting from the field and 40% from deep at home this season. Cardinals are also Top 15 in the country in 3-point shooting pct. They should get a lot of good looks against Syracuse's 2-3 zone. Teams that have played zone against Louisville have definitely paid the price this year. 

Another thing is the Orange have not played well defensively away from home. It's why we have seen the OVER go a perfect 7-0 in their last 7 road games. Most recently losing at FSU 77-80. 

Key here is Syracuse can score. They have proven that. They are scoring 75.2 ppg on the road this year and are averaging 76.8 ppg in their last 5, despite only shooting 40.6% from the field. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Rutgers -1 -115

Rutgers is definitely worth a look at basically a pick'em on their home floor. How do you know back the Scarlet Knights at this price when they are 17-0 at home this season. Rutgers has lost 3 of their last 5 and needed OT to win at home over Northwestern, but are fresh off a big time 72-57 home win over Illinois. 

Those that follow the Big Ten know that the Scarlet Knights are the real deal, but I don't think that's a perception shared across the country. Michigan on the other hand is a name brand and are making headlines with their recent play. Wolverines come in having won 3 straight and 5 of 6 overall. 

Michigan is better with Livers back in the mix, but I'm not sold on them being good enough to win on the road against a team like Rutgers. The Wolverines only true road wins all season have come against bottom feeders Nebraska and Northwestern. You take away those 3 wins in 3 days at Atlantis and they are just 2-5 away from home. 

Rutgers also playing with revenge here from a close 6-point loss to Michigan in the first meeting. Scarlet Knights should feed off an electric home crowd. Take Rutgers! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on Wofford/NC-Greensboro over 130½ -114

I like the value here with the OVER at this low number. These two teams played once already this year and it ended up Wofford outscoring Greensboro 98-92 in double-overtime. The two extra periods didn't matter on the total. The game closed at a total of 128.5. It was 78-78 at the end of regulation. 

I see no reason not to expect another high-scoring game in the rematch. These two teams both love to shoot 3-pointers. They hoisted up a combined 76 attempts in the first meeting. Both teams making 14. They both had at least 18 made free throws.  I think both teams can get into a rhythm offensively when you have to similar styles like this. Take the OVER 130.5! 

5* NCAAB - SEC Total PLAY OF THE YEAR on Kentucky/LSU over 145 -110

I absolutely love the OVER in tonight's late night SEC matchup between LSU and Kentucky. The Tigers have consistently been involved in high-scoring games. Each of their last 4 games have seen a combined score of 160 or more. In their last 9 conference games, only one has finished with fewer than 156 and that was 136 against Ole Miss, who is one of the worst offenses in the SEC and they like to play slow. 

Kentucky can definitely score. While they did just play in a low-scoring game on Saturday, which saw 129 total points, that was against Ole Miss. Prior to that they had scored 77 or more in 3 straight games. Wildcats are going to do some damage here. LSU is 12th out of 14 SEC teams in both defensive efficiency and effective field goal defense. They are also 12th in forced turnovers at just 14.9%. 

Kentucky has a solid defense, but they are playing on the road on a just two days of rest, so they aren't going to have the freshest of legs here. I also just don't think there's any slowing down the Tigers at the Maravich Assembly Center. 

OVER is 8-1 in LSU's last 9 at home vs teams holding opponents to 42% or worse at least 15 games into the season. OVER is also 10-2 in the Tigers last 12 conference games overall. OVER is also 8-1 in Kentucky's last 9 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games and 6-2 in their last 8 on the road. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Northwestern/Maryland under 133½ -109

The UNDER is definitely worth a look in Tuesday's Big 10 matchup that has 1st place Maryland hosting last place Northwestern. Terps have won 8 straight to improve to 11-3 (only other team in Big 10 with fewer than 6 losses is Penn St.), while Wildcats have lost 9 in a row and are sitting at 1-13 in league play. 

These two first met this season on Jan. 21. Northwestern jumped out to a 40-26 1st half lead, but ended up losing 77-66. While that game ended with 143 points, I'm confident the rematch will be a lot lower scoring. 

Northwestern shot 50% from the field and 44% from deep in that game at home against the Terps. Chances of that repeating are slim. Wildcats are shooting just 40.8% overall in conference play. They ranked 13th in the conference in 2-point shooting. 

I also don't see Maryland's offense going off in this one. This is big letdown spot for the Terps off that monster road win at Michigan State on Saturday. I see Maryland going thru the motions and could see this thing struggling to get to 125. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB - Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Florida -6 -110

I got no problem laying the points with Florida at home against the Razorbacks. The Gators are rolling right now. They have won 4 of their last 5 and are off two dominating performances in a 78-61 road win at Texas A&M and 84-66 win at home over Vanderbilt. Florida is very quietly sitting at 8-4 in the SEC (only 2 games out of 1st). 

While the Gators are surging, Arkansas is on a free fall with 4 straight losses. You really have to wonder about the psyche of this Razorbacks team, as two of the 4 losses came in OT and the other was a 1-point loss at home to Mississippi State. 

I just think it's going to be hard to right the ship on the road for Arkansas. Razorbacks are really feeling the injury to guard Isaiah Joe, as they are not a deep team. PLaying on the road with just 2 days rest is a lot harder for this team than it is for others. 

Arkansas is also just 11-25 ATS last 36 on the road after 2 or more consecutive conference losses and 2-9 ATS last 11 after allowing 75+ points in 2 straight games. Favorite has also covered 6 of the last 7 in the series. Take Florida! 

5* NCAAB - Big East PLAY OF THE MONTH on St. John's +2 -109

I really like the value here with the Red Storm as a home dog against the Musketeers. St John's just won at home Wednesday against Providence 80-69 as a 5.5-point dog. The Red Storm will carry over that momentum into this one. 

Xavier on the other hand just had their 3-game winning streak snapped in a 61-66 loss at Butler on Wednesday. This team has had trouble bouncing from a loss, as they have multiple losing streaks in Big East play. 

St John's is also going to be plenty motivated to get revenge from a mere 8-point loss at Xavier back in early January. Forcing turnovers is a big part of the Red Storm path to success and that's a weakness of the Musketeers. Xavier turned it over 19 times in the first meeting and that was at home. Those mistakes could be compounded here on the road and if St. John's gets that momentum early they should win here no problem. 

Xavier is just 2-5-1 ATS last 8 as a favorite and 1-5 ATS laying points in their last 6 as a road favorite. Red Storm are 6-2 ATS last 8 as a home dog. Take St. John's! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Connecticut -4 -105

I like the value here with the Huskies laying a shot number at home against Memphis. UConn is just 4-7 in the AAC, but if you watch this team, especially here of late, you know that they are much better than their record. Huskies have lost 11 games this season, 9 of those by single-digits, including 3 overtime losses. 

I think we are getting a steal here with them at this price. This is an absolutely brutal spot for Memphis, who lost a game they shouldn't have in Thursday's 86-92 overtime loss at Cincinnati. Not easy playing extra time on the road and then having just 2 days off before going back on the road against a quality opponent. 

Memphis plays good defense and are solid on the boards, but that's not a concern here. UConn is 8-1 ATS last 9 at home vs good defensive teams that are holding opponents to 42% or less at least 15 games into the season and 9-2 ATS last 11 at home vs teams who are outrebounding teams by 4+ boards/game. Huskies are also 21-10 ATS last 31 at home and 9-2 ATS last 11 when they have won 2 of their last 3. Take Connecticut! 

5* NCAAB - Big Ten GAME OF THE MONTH on Minnesota -4½ -110

Easy play here on the Gophers as a relatively small home favorite against the Hawkeyes. Iowa has had their struggles on the road this season. Hawkeyes are 8-6 in Big Ten play and all 6 of those losses have come on the road. Iowa's only road win came against league worst Northwestern. 

Don't be fooled by Iowa having already beat Minnesota 72-52 at home. At the same time, Minnesota is also a much different team at home compared to on the road. Gophers are 10-3 at home compared to 2-8 on the road. 

The big key here besides the home/away splits is the health of Iowa. Hawkeyes are unlikely to have standout freshman guard CJ Fredrick, who rolled his ankle in their 77-89 loss at Indiana on Thursday. 

Note that while Iowa is playing on a mere 2 days of rest here, Minnesota has been off since last Saturday. That extra time to prepare should only add to the edge here for the Gophers. Take Minnesota! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night ATS HEAVY HITTER on Utah State -5 -109

The Aggies are worth a look here as a small road favorite against the Bulldogs. This is just too good a price to pass up with Utah State given how well they are playing right now. The Aggies come in having won 3 straight and 6 of 7 overall. They got a realistic shot here of finishing No. 2 in the MWC behind San Diego State. 

As for Fresno State, they avoided a 3rd straight loss with a 84-78 OT win at San Jose State, but that's not exactly a positive needing OT to beat a team like that. This has just not been a good year for the Bulldogs, who have a losing record at 5-6 at home. Even more important is their awful 2-7-1 ATS record in home lined games. 

One thing Fresno State does well is generate offensive rebounds and they have to with how sloppy they are with the ball and their lack of shooting. Problem is the Aggies are a great defensive rebounding team. I just don't see the Bulldogs keeping this close. Take Utah State! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Virginia/North Carolina under 118½ -110

This game is not going to be one to watch if you like scoring. With the Cavaliers inability to score on a consistent basis and the Tar Heels lack of outside shooting, I wouldn't be surprised if these two failed to reach 100 points. 

Virginia plays as slow as any team and they figure to be on the slower side of things after a grueling OT win against Notre Dame on Tuesday. As for the Tar Heels, they had that great game against Duke last Saturday, but then managed just 57 points on the road against Wake Forest next time out. Even with the home crowd to help, I don't see UNC's offense being able to generate a lot here. 

UNDER is also 38-18-1 in Virginia's last 57 road games and 37-15 in their last 52 as an underdog. UNDER is 6-1 in the Tar Heels last 7 vs a team with a winning straight up record and 11-4-1 in their last 16 as a favorite. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on Cornell/Dartmouth under 134½ -109

I like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's Ivy League action that has Dartmouth hosting Cornell. These are two of the slower paced Ivy teams and both figure to be on the slow end of things in this one. The Big Red were on the road at Harvard last night and could not stop the Crimson in a 63-85 loss. Big Green were also in action last night. They pulled out a grueling 65-63 win at home against Columbia. 

Last two times Dartmouth has played in the second game of a back-to-back the offense has been a now show. Last Saturday they managed just 57 points at Yale and the Saturday before a mere 46 at Penn. I could see both teams failing to reach 60 in this one. 

UNDER is 8-3 in the Big Green's last 11 off a win and 5-1 in their last 6 as home favorite. UNDER is also 4-0 in Cornell's last 4 off a SU loss by more than 20 and 8-2 in their last 10 on Saturday. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB Prime Time ATS Line MISTAKE on Tennessee +4½ -115

I think a lot of people will have a hard time backing Tennessee on the road at this price, especially with how well South Carolina has been playing. Frank Martin's Gamecocks just went on the road and destroyed Georgia 75-59, improving to 5-1 over their last 6 games. 

One of the big reasons I think we are seeing the number a little low, is this has become a difficult spot for South Carolina. Just as everything was going well for the Gamecocks, news of NCAA allegations was announced Thursday. The slightest of distractions can derail a team and I just think they struggle to play well here. 

Tennessee has also been playing well here of late and recently won as a road dog at Alabama. Last time out they absolutely destroyed Arkansas 82-61. Vols are 20-8-1 ATS last 29 off a win by more than 20 points and 8-1 ATS last 9 on the road after a win by 20 or more. Take Tennessee! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Notre Dame +12½ -108

The Fighting Irish are definitely worth a look here as a double-digit underdog against the Blue Devils. I think Notre Dame is built to give Duke a tough contest. The Irish are certainly playing well coming in, as they are 4-1 over their last 5 with the only loss a mere 1-point setback on the road at Virginia (really should have won). They have covered 6 straighta against the number. 

Duke is always going to have an inflated number on them because of how big a public play they are, so the value is definitely there. I also think this is a good spot to fade the Blue Devils, who have played two monster games leading up to this. Last Saturday they had that epic OT win over rival UNC and then Monday had to grind out a 5-point home win over FSU. 

Another thing to note here is that this is Notre Dame's only regular-season game against Duke and given how big it is to play Duke for these other ACC teams, I think we get their best effort here. Irish are 4-0 ATS last 4 on the road and 6-2-1 ATS last 9 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games. Take Notre Dame! 

3* NCAAB - Undervalued DOG OF THE DAY on Clemson +6½ -110

I like the value here with Clemson getting a decent number at home in Saturday's matchup with No. 5 Louisville. The Cardinals had their 10-game winning streak snapped in a 58-64 loss at Georgia Tech on Wednesday as a similarly priced 6-point dog. 

Louisville really came out sluggish in that contest and I think the perception here is they will bounce back. Easier said than done when playing on the road with just two days off against a hungry Clemson team that is going to lay it all on the line in this one. 

Tigers had been struggling, but put an end to their 3-game skid with an emphatic 72-52 road win at Pitt on Wednesday. Not only will they be motivated here at home against a top ranked foe, but they will come in very confident. 

Tigers are 15-5 ATS last 20 at home off a cover, 10-2 ATS last 12 at home off a win by 10 or more and 6-0 ATS last 6 off an upset win as an underdog. Take Clemson! 

5* NCAAB - Vegas No Limit PLAY OF THE MONTH on Georgia +1 -110

I love the value here with the Bulldogs at basically a pick'em at Texas A&M. These two teams played a couple weeks ago at Georgia and the Bulldogs won convincingly 63-48.

Aggies had no answer for Georgia small ball up-tempo attack and really struggled to slow down star freshman Anthony Edwards. I see no reason why we shouldn't expect those same struggles in the rematch. 

The Bulldogs have lost 3 straight since that win over Texas A&M, but that's almost a positive given they are 9-2 ATS last 2 years when coming off 3 or more straight conference losses. Aggies are also 0-7 ATS as a favorite, 0-6 ATS at home after playing a game as a home dog and 2-9 ATS last 11 at home when revening a loss. Take Georgia! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Rider +5½ -109

Rider is definitely worth a look here at this price. This is a big number for the Broncs to be catching. These two teams already played once this season at Rider and the Broncos won that game 85-77. That was back in a stretch in which Rider was 2-6 over a 8 game run. 

This time around the Broncs have won 5 of 6 and just won and covered as a 9-point home favoire against Niagara in their last game. There's no question they are going to be up for this one. That first meeting was heated. Multiple players were ejected. 

In that first meeting Riders' guards Vaughn and Jordan combined for 50 points and the Broncs defense forced the Saints into 20 turnovers. No reason not to expect more of the same this time around. 

Sienna is 2-6 ATS last 8 games off a win and 3-8 ATS last 11 times they have been listed as the favorite. Take Rider! 

5* NCAAB - Atlantic 10 PLAY OF THE MONTH on St Bonaventure -3 -104

I absolutely love the value here with the Bonnies laying a short number at home against the Wildcats. St Bonaventure comes into this game on a roll. Last time out they avoided the dreaded trap game, making easy work of St. Joes on the road after that big upset win at Duquesne. 

You factor in how well the team is playing and the energy and excitement around this game, the atmosphere in the Reilly Center should be a big advantage for them. They don't get many prime time games on ESPN2 in their home gym. 

On top of that, Davidson has shown no ability to play up their potential on the road. In fact, the Wildcats have really been underachievers all season. They are 4-10 SU and 3-11 ATS when they are tasked with playing a game away from home. They are also a great fade when the books are giving them points. Wildcats are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 as an underdog. Take St. Bonaventure! 

5* NCAAB - Late Night NO LIMIT Top Play on Washington +4 -114

Easy play here on the Huskies. Most will look to stay clear of Washington, as they come into this game having lost 6 straight. Not me. Huskies are so close to getting this thing on track and I think they might have found something in the 2nd half against Washington State with their two point guard look. 

USC is also not playing great right now. Trojans are reeling off 3 straight losses and fresh off a heartbreaking loss at ASU. I just think USC is in a bad place right now and are going to have a hard time putting the Huskies away. Keep in mind Washington absolutely owned the first meeting, beating the Trojans 72-40 back in early January. 

USC has covered their last 2 and 7 of 9 overall, but that's a positive here. Trojans are 2-11 ATS last 13 at home after 2 or more straight covers and 1-10 ATS last 11 at home after covering 4/5 of their last 6. USC is also a mere 2-6 ATS last 8 games as a favorite. Take Washington! 

5* NCAAB - Heavy Hitter GAME OF THE MONTH on Northern Colorado -4 -103

I love the value here with Northern Colorado laying a short number on the road against Northern Arizona. The Bears will be highly motivated for revenge from a 6-point home loss to the Lumberjacks and are getting them at the right time. Lumberjacks have lost 2 of 3 and the lone win was in OT against Big Sky bottom feeder Idaho State. 

One of the biggest strengths of Northern Arizona is their 3-point shooting. The Lumberjacks average 8 made 3-pointers and are shooting 38% on the season. They rank 2nd in Big Sky in 3-point shooting and yet are 7th in 2-point shooting. 

Northern Colorado is elite in terms of defending the 3-pointer. The Bears are No. 1 in the Big Sky in 3-point pct. defense and 6th nationally. They are also 6th best in the country in percentage of shots they allow from 3-point range. 

Last time these two played the Bears offense just wasn't in sync. Northern Colorado comes in averaging 75.2 ppg in their last 5 and the Lumberjacks are giving up 73.2 ppg in their last 5. Bears did make 9 3-pointers in the loss, but shot 38 for a mere 23.7%. On the season they shoot 37% from 3 and Northern Arizona is giving up 35% in conference play. 

Bears are 13-4 ATS last 17 road games after playing a game as a home favorite, 15-5 in their last 20 on the road after covering 2 of their last 3 and a perfect 6-0 ATS in their last 6 off a cover. Take Northern Colorado! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Texas State -2½ -109

The Bobcats are definitely worth a look here at basically a pick'em on their home floor against the Trojans. Little Rock has a big target on their back in the Sun Belt, as they are 3-games clear of the next best team in the league with a 12-2 mark. 

The fact that they are a dog here speaks a lot to how much the books respect this Texas State team. There's definitely a lot to like with the Bobcats in this matchup. For starters, they will be out for revenge from a mere 4-point loss at Little Rock earlier this season. 

This is also a Texas State team that is rolling.After starting out 1-4 in the Sun Belt, Bobcats have won 7 of their last 9 conference games. Really should be 8-1 in this stretch as they gave away a game last time out at App St.

They led 36-18 and lost 57-60, scoring just 6 points in the final 10 minutes of the game. No way they lose that if leading scorer Nijal Pearson plays. He'll be back for this one as he simply missed the game for the birth of his daughter. 

Bobcats have led by 5 or more at the half in each of their last 3 games. Teams that have pulled off this feat are a dominating  81-40 (67%) ATS last 5 years in games with a line of +3 to -3 and facing an opponent that has scored 75 or more in 3 straight games. Take Texas State! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Eastern Kentucky +4 -110

I really like the value here with Eastern Kentucky as a road dog against Morehead State. The Colonels had been on a tear before a small hiccup on the road against SIU Edwardsville. The fact that they only lost by 8, despite shooting 7 for 37 on 3-pointers and missing one of their better players in Russhard Cruickshank, really says a lot about how good this team is. 

Cruickshank should be ready to go as he's had another 4 days to recover after nearly giving it a go in their last game. Either way the Colonels should bounce back with a big effort here against the Eagles. 

Morehead State is a misleading 3-1 over their last 4, as they had 3 straight games and wins over the 3 worst teams in the Ohio Valley. Those are their only 3 wins in their last 8 games. EKY is 6-1 ATS last 7 overall, 5-1 ATS last 6 vs a team with a losing record and 4-1 ATS last 5 as a road dog. Take Eastern Kentucky! 

4* NCAAB - Sharp Money NO-BRAINER on Drexel +6 -109

The price here is too good to pass up with Drexel. These two teams already played once this season and the Dragons won that contest 84-57. It's really been the undoing for the Tribe, who came in at 6-0 in conference play and are now 8-5. 

Drexel dominated every aspect of that game against William & Mary. I get they too have took a turn for the worse with 4 losses in their last 5, but no way should they be this big of a dog in this fight. Especially with how the Tribe's offense is struggling. William & Mary is averaging 58.2 ppg on 40% shooting in their last 5 games. 

It would be on thing if their defense was playing well, but they are giving up 70 ppg on 50% shooting during this same 5-game stretch. Tribe are 0-5 ATS last 5 vs a team with a winning record and 0-4 ATS last 4 as a favorite. The road team and underdog are both 4-1 ATS last 5 meetings in this series. Take Drexel! 

3* NCAAB - Undervalued DOG OF THE DAY on St. John's +2 -105

I really like the spot and the value with St. John's as a home dog against the Friars. The Red Storm come in off 3 straight losses and we know they are going to be motivated here, especially playing with revenge from a earlier 5-point loss at Providence.

Friars aren't exactly coming into this one with momentum, as they let one slip away on the road Saturday in a 58-64 loss to Xavier. Providence is a mere 8-20 ATS last 3 seasons after playing their last game on the road, 2-9 ATS last 11 off a SU loss and are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 as a road favorite. 

While the Friars have struggled in this spot, St. John's has covered 5 of their last 7 off a game where they failed to cover and are a dominant 6-2 ATS last 8 times they have been listed as a home underdog. Take St. John's! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Georgia Tech +6 -105

The Yellow Jackets are worth a look here as a home dog against Louisville. There's no question who the better team is. The Cardinals are 21-3 and ranked No. 5 in the country and Georgia Tech is sitting there with a losing record at 11-13. 

I think these are the toughest games for a team like Louisville, who is riding high on a 10-game winning streak, which they just extended to 10 with a grueling 80-73 win at home against Virginia. This is the definition of a letdown spot for the Cardinals. 

On the flips side, Georgia Tech is going to relish the opportunity to try and knock off a Top 5 team on their home floor. Especially given how close the Yellow Jackets were to upsetting the Cardinals in Louisville a few weeks back, as they lost 64-68 as a 13-point dog. 

Georgia Tech lost their last game 64-73 at Pitt, which only adds more value to this play, as the Yellow Jackets are a dominant 9-3 ATS off a loss this season (23-9 Last 32 off a loss). Cardinals are just 1-4 ATS last 5 games vs a team with a losing record. Take Georgia Tech! 

5* NCAAB - Big 12 Total PLAY OF THE YEAR on Kansas/West Virginia over 135 -109

I absolutely love the value here with the OVER in Wednesday's massive Big 12 matchup that has No. 14 West Virginia hosting the No. 3 Kansas. These two played back on Jan. 4 at KU and that game finished with a mere 113 points in a 60-53 Jayhawks win. That game had a total of 141.5, so there's clearly been an adjustment by the books for the rematch. 

I just think we are going to see a lot more offense this time around, in large part because the scene is shifting to Morgantown. West Virginia likes to play fast. They are the top team in Big 12 play in tempo and should be able to dictate the pace at home. Mountaineers average 72.8 ppg on 43% shooting for the season, but that jumps to 78.7 ppg on 47% shooting at home. 

As for Kansas, they are pretty consistent regardless of the venue, as they average 75.0 ppg on 48.6% shooting overall and that drops just slightly to 73.4 ppg on 48.3% shooting on the road. I think both teams are going to get to 70-points in this one. 

In that first meeting, which saw WV score just 53 points, they couldn't have shot it any worse. Mountaineers were 19-59 (32.2%) from the field and 3-14 (21.4%) from deep. They also went just 12-22 (54.5%) from the free throw line. Kansas wasn't much better going 19-47 (40.4%), 3-17 (17.6%) from deep and 19-30 (63.3%) on free throws. OVER is also 5-0 last 5 times the Jayhawks have been listed as a dog! Take the OVER! 

5* NCAAB - SEC ATS PLAY OF THE MONTH on Vanderbilt +13 -110

I absolutely love the value here with the Commodores as a big double-digit home dog against the Wildcats. Vanderbilt comes in with a 1-9 record in SEC play, which I think has them way undervalued, especially with how well they have been playing. 

Commodores have covered 4 straight and all 4 have come against some quality opponents. They lost by just 9 as a 21-point road dog at Kentucky, then lost by just 6 at home to Florida as a 11.5-point dog. They proceeded to then beat LSU 99-90 as a 11.5-point home dog and last time out lost by just 10 at Mississippi State as a 15.5-point dog. 

Even though it's a long-shot, I can guarantee you Vanderbilt is approaching this game with the confidence they not only keep it close, but win outright. For a Kentucky team that is sitting at 8-2 and fresh off a big road win at Tennessee, it wouldn't be a huge shock to see them lay an egg here. 

Wildcats are just 2-9 ATS this season as a favorite of 10 or more and Commodores are 4-0 ATS last 5 vs a team with a winning record and 4-0 last 4 as a dog. Take Vanderbilt! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Bowling Green +7½ -114

The Falcons are worth a look here as a big road dog against the Zips. Bowling Green suffered a big blow when one of their best players, Dylan Frye, decided to just up and leave the program. Frye was a big part of that team, but if there's a team that can overcome a loss like that it's the Falcons. 

I feel the books have inflated the number here on Akron too much. The Zips snapped a two game skid with a win at home over Eastern Michigan, but it was far from a dominant showing. Akron won by the slimmest of margins 59-58, coming no where close to covering as a 12-point favorite. Zips continued to struggle from the field and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Bowling Green won this game outright. 

Falcons are 13-5 ATS last 18 times they have been listed as a dog, 13-3 ATS last 16 off a home conference win and 14-5 ATS last 19 on the road off a home win. Take Bowling Green! 

5* NCAAB -  Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Florida State +8½ -115

Easy play here on the Seminoles as a near double-digit dog at Duke. I just think there's too much value with FSU in this spot. Blue Devils come into this game off an improbable 98-96 OT win on the road against rival North Carolina. Not only did the game go to OT, but Duke had to rally from double-digits down late in the 2nd half and eventually won the game on a last second shot. 

I know the Seminoles are not a team to overlook and I expect Duke to play hard, I just don't think they are going to have enough in the tank to pull away and win this thing by more than the number. In fact, if they struggle at all this is a game the Seminoles can win outright. 

FSU can light it up. Seminoles are shooting 46% from the field and 37% from deep on the season. Duke is just 3-15 ATS last 2 seasons when playing a team at least 15 games into the season that is hitting 45% or better from the field. Blue Devils are also 1-5 ATS last 6 at home vs a team with a winning road record. Take Florida State! 

5* NCAAB - Missouri Valley PLAY OF THE MONTH on Evansville +12½ -107

I really like the value here with the Purple Aces as a huge road dog against the Braves. Evansville is a team the betting public wants absolutely nothing to do with, as they are winless in MVC play at 0-11. That has left the books no choice but to inflate the number in their games and I just feel there's a ton of value here. 

While the losses keep mounting, the Purple Aces have been on the verge of that first conference win. They just took Southern Illinois to OT at home in their last game, lost by just 12 at home to UNI in their previous game and only lost by 11 at Illinois St and by 2 at Valpo in their two before that. 

Bradley has lost 4 of their last 6 and are off back-to-back double-digit losses at Loyola and Drake. I just think they are going to have a hard time here giving an Evansville team they beat by 20 on the road their full attention. Purple Aces' ability to defend the 3-pointer (29th nationally) is also huge, as the Braves are 313th in 2-point shooting. Take Evansville! 

3* NCAAB - Late Night ATS DESTROYER on Pacific -3 -109

Easy play here on the Tigers as a small home favorite against the Waves. Pacific is rolling right now, as they come in having won 3 straight to improve to 6-4 in WCC action. Tigers are tough to beat at home, where they are 12-4 this season and they already beat Pepperdine on the road earlier this year. 

Tigers are 32-15 ATS last 47 home games off 2 straight conference wins and should have a field day offensively in this one, as the Waves are giving up 83.2 ppg on 49% shooting in road games this season. While some of that has to do with their non-conf schedule, they are allowing 81.2 ppg on 50% shooting in their last 5 games. 

Pepperdine is off a 91-77 win at home over Santa Clara, but are just 2-7 ATS last 9 off a SU win. They are also 2-8 ATS last 10 after winning 2 of 3 and 1-7 ATS last 8 after scoring 80 or more. Take Pacific! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Weber State -2 -109

I really like the value here with the Wildcats at basically a pick'em on their home floor against Northern Arizona. Weber State has caught fire here of late with 3 wins in their last 4 to go from 2-6 in Big Sky play to 5-7. I look for them to build on that momentum and get revenge from an earlier 8-point loss at Northern Arizona. 

The big thing to note with the Lumberjacks win in the first meeting is they only won by 8 on their home floor, despite shooting 57% from the field and 56% from behind the 3-point line. You shoot like that, you should win by 20+. I just don't see them having near the success on the road, where they are scoring just 68.8 ppg on 43.7% shooting. 

With Weber State scoring 80.9 ppg on 50% shooting at home, I just don't see Northern Arizona being able to score enough to win this one. Wildcats are 70-44 (61%) ATS last 114 when revenging a road loss and 32-15 ATS last 47 at home with a line of +3 to -3. Take Weber State! 

5* NCAAB - ACC PLAY OF THE MONTH on Syracuse -8 -110

Easy play here on the Orange at home against the Demon Deacons. Syracuse should have zero problem beating Wake Forest by double-digits Saturday. Lot to like with the Orange in this one, as they have had a full week off to get their minds right following a tough home loss to Duke last Saturday. Huge motivational spot for Syracuse to put their 2-game losing streak to rest. 

As for the Demon Deacons, this is not an ideal spot for them playing on the road for a second straight game after a grueling loss at home to Louisville on Wednesday. I just don't think 2 days is enough for Wake Forest to get their minds right for this game and they have had their troubles keeping games respectable on the road (3 of their last 4 on the road have resulted in losses by 10 or more). 

Demon Deacons are also just 2-7 overall, which is worth noting, as they are a mere 14-33 ATS last 47 on the road when they come in having lost 6/7 of their last 8. They are also just 3-13 ATS last 16 road games off a conference loss. Favorite has also covered 5 straight in the series. Take Syracuse! 

3* NCAAB - Situational ATS DESTROYER on South Florida +8½ -109

I like the value here with South Florida as a near double-digit dog on the road against Memphis. While the Tigers come in having won 3 straight, only one of those was by more than 7 points and that was against a bad Temple team last time out. 

I just don't think this Memphis team can be trusted to lay a number like this. South Florida has got some momentum going with back-to-back wins and are off one of their best games this season, beating UCF by 16 at home last Saturday. Bulls will also draw plenty of confidence and motivation from a near upset of Memphis at home earlier this season, which they lost by just 4 points. 

Having a week to prepare for USF is huge, especially given that Memphis has quick turnaround after playing on Wednesday. Tigers also struggle with turnovers and had 22 against the Bulls in that first meeting. South Florida should have a big edge there again, which will make it really hard on Memphis to pull away. 

Bulls are 18-6 ATS last 24 off a home win, 13-3 ATS last 16 after playing 2 straight games as a favorite, 14-4 ATS last 18 off 2 straight wins and a perfect 7-0 ATS last 7 off two straight covers as a favorite. Take South Florida! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Purdue/Indiana under 129½ -110

I really like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's Big Ten showdown between Purdue and Indiana. Don't be fooled by the 104 points that the Boilermakers put up in Wednesday's win at home over Iowa. Hawkeyes have the worst defense in the conference and were in a huge flat spot off a big home win over Illinois. 

I look for Purdue to go right back to their ways of struggling to score, especially with this game being on the road. Boilermakers are averaging a mere 54.8 ppg in regulation on the road in Big Ten play and have not scored more than 63 points in regulation in those 6 road games. Indiana only gives up 66.1 ppg on 40% shooting at home. 

Purdue's defense isn't as good on the road as it is at home, but they are giving up just 64.3 ppg on the highway and are facing an Indiana offense that has scored 49 and 59 points in their last two games. 

UNDER is 11-2 in the Hoosiers last 13 home games off a road loss and 9-1 in their last 10 at home if they have failed to cover 4/5 of their last 6. UNDER is 7-2 in Purdue's last 9 after scoring 90 or more points and 6-2 in their last 8 on the road. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas ODDSMAKERS ERROR on Furman -4 -109

The Paladins are worth a look here as a small road favorite at Western Carolina. Furman is sitting tied on top the Southern Conference at 9-2 with East Tennessee State and are one of the better small conference teams not a lot of people know about. Paladins are 73rd right now in KenPom. 

Western Carolina in comparison is sitting at No. 158. Furman comes into this one playing extremely well, as they have won 4 straight, most recently destroying Mercer 79-57 at home. That was the same Mercer team they only beat by 2 on the road earlier this season. 

The Catamounts fall into a similar spot, as they gave the Paladins a really good game back in January, losing by just 4 on the road. I don't see Furman playing around with Western Carolina this time around. 

Look for turnovers to be the difference maker, as the Paladins are 26th nationally in defensive turnover rate, while Western Carolina is 236th in offensive turnover rate. Paladins are also 13-4 ATS last 17 as a road favorite and 13-4 ATS last 17 off a conference home win. Take Furman! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas ATS Line MISTAKE on VMI PK -110

I like the value here with the Keydets at a pick'em on the road against The Citadel. All you have to do here is look at the recent history between these two teams to see the value with VMI. The Keydets have covered 9 of the last 10 meetings in the series and are covering by almost 7 ppg. 

You also have to factor in all the injuries that the Bulldogs are dealing with. Not only do they got several key guys out, but those that are able to play are playing at less than 100%. On top of that, The Citadel is sitting winless in Southern Conference play at 0-11. They aren't just losing, they are getting beat badly, as 6 of their last 7 losses are by 9 or more points. 

Playing another bad team hasn't helped them out much either. Bulldogs are 15-34-2 ATS last 51 at home vs a team with a losing road record and 1-4 ATS last 5 vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their games. VMI on the other hand is 7-0 ATS last 7 times they have faced a team that's allowing 77 or more points/game. Take VMI! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Rhode Island/George Washington under 141 -110

The UNDER is definitely worth a look in Saturday's early action out of the A-10 between George Washington and Rhode Island. I just think the total here is way too high for this matchup. The Rams are one of the best defensive teams in the Atlantic 10 and couldn't matchup better with the Colonials. 

George Washington runs basically their entire offense thru the pick and roll and Rhode Island is exceptional at defending that action, ranking 28th best in the country. Rams have also really hit their stride on the defensive side of the ball here of late and are giving up just 64.3 ppg in conference play. The UNDER is 7-3 in their 10 conference games. 

Colonials are also struggling offensively right now. They managed just 47 points at St Bonaventure last time out. A game they were missing starting point guard Armel Potter, who is questionable to play in this one. Prior to that they scored just 54 on the road against Richmond. You need both teams to score to hit a total like this and I just don't see it happening. Take the UNDER! 

5* NCAAB Vegas NO LIMIT Top Play on Iona +6 

I love the value here with the Gaels as a decently priced road dog against the Bobcats. It hasn't been the easiest of seasons for Iona, as they try to make it work under interim head coach Tra Arnold, but this is just too good a price to pass up. 

Quinnipiac is setting 3rd in the MAAC at 6-4, but they are just 2-4 in league play after starting out 4-0. Most recently losing by 16 on the road at Niagara, who is ranked just slightly higher than the Gaels. 

Bobcats have been a good fade at home off a road loss. They are just 5-15 ATS last 20 at home off a conference road loss and a mere 1-11 ATS in their last 12 at home off a road loss by 10 or points. 

Quinnipiac has also not had much luck against teams that make a living from the 3-point line. Bobcats are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 at home vs teams who average 8 or more made 3-pointers. Take Iona! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night ATS HEAVY HITTER on Santa Clara +3 -115

I really like the value here with the Broncos as a road dog against the Waves. These two teams just played two weeks ago at Santa Clara and it came down to the wire with Pepperdine winning 90-86 in OT. Since 1997 the Broncos are 60% ATSS when revening a same season loss. 

Most might think the Waves are the way with this time the game being played on their home floor. However, Pepperdine is a mere 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games. They are also 2-10 ATS last 12 games as a favorite and 1-7 ATS last 8 as a home favorite. Road team and underdog has covered 4 of the last 5 games in this series. Take Santa Clara! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Middle Tennessee +8½ -110

I like the value here with the Blue Raiders as a near double-digit dog at home against the Mean Green. North Texas just had their 8-game winning streak snapped in an ugly 75-84 loss at Rice as a 8.5-point favorite. Prior to that they struggled to put away a bad UTEP team. I just think it's asking a lot for the Mean Green to win here in blowout fashion. 

Middle Tennessee is just 2-8 in C-USA play, but they have won 2 of their last 3, including a win at UTSA in their last game as a 8-point dog. Blue Raiders haven't been nearly as bad as their conference record and that shows in their 6-4 ATS mark in C-USA play. 

Blue Raiders have gone 4-1 ATS last 5 games as a dog and are 10-2 ATS last 12 off a conference win as a dog of 6 or more. Home team has also covered 8 of the last 10 meetings in the series. Take Middle Tennessee! 

5* NCAAB - American Athletic PLAY OF THE MONTH on Wichita State -4 -110

I love the value here with the Shockers as a small home favorite against the Bearcats. I just feel like this is too good a price to pass up with Wichita State at home given how motivated the Shockers are going to be off a close 3-point loss at Tulsa. Not to mention Wichita State is 13-1 on their home floor this season. 

Cincinnati has won 4 straight, but 3 of those 4 were at home and the other was at a bad Temple team. We saw these same Bearcats lost by 11 at Memphis on the road. I also think this is a really tough spot for Cincinnati coming off that emotional 64-62 win at home over Houston, where they rallied from 15 down to get the win. 

Bearcats are 1-5 ATS last 6 on the road vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games and 3-13 ATS last 16 as a road dog. Shockers are 7-3 ATS last 10 off a game where they failed to cover. Take Wichita State! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas Oddsmakers LINE MISTAKE on Elon +3½ -110

I like the value here with the Phoenix getting points on the road against the Seahawks. I just don't think UNC Wilmington should be favored. They are a mere 2-9 in CAA play and their two wins are both by a mere 2-points. They come in off back-to-back double-digit losses on the road to Townson and most recently at James Madison by 17. 

These two teams played earlier this season and the Phoenix won by 17 at home, which I think speaks for itself in the value with them getting points in the rematch. UNC Wilmington simply can't score. They are last in the CAA in both offensive efficiency and effective field goal percentage. Not to mention they struggle with turnovers and aren't good on the boards. They also are bottom of the pack in defense. 

Seahawks are 1-5 ATS last 6 as a home favorite and 0-7 ATS last 7 at home vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their road games. Take Elon! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under TOTAL DESTROYER on Wisconsin/Minnesota over 124½ -110

The books have completely missed the mark here with the total in Wednesday's Big Ten matchup between Wisconsin and Minnesota. I get the Badgers like to play slow, but there's just too much value with this low total to not take a shot on the OVER. 

Gophers are a different offensive team on their home floor and the OVER is 10-1 in Minnesota's last 11 home games as a favorite of 6 points or less and the average combined score in these games is 149. OVER is also a perfect 6-0 in the Gophers last 6 at home after a game where they scored 60 or fewer points. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Western Carolina -5 -105

Easy play here on the Catamounts laying a really short number on the road against Samford. The Bulldogs are simply one of the worst teams in the conference. Samford has lost 8 straight games with each of the last 7 setbacks coming by 7 or more. 

There's a lot the Bulldogs do well. They are 9th in the Southern Conference in offensive efficiency and 10th (last) in effective field goal percentage. They are also 10th in both of these categories on the defensive side of the ball. 

Samford is a mere 2-9 ATS last 11 games vs a team with a winning record, 2-11 ATS last 13 as a dog and 1-9 ATS last 10 after giving up 80 or more in their last game. Catamounts should win and win big. Take Western Carolina! 

5* NCAAB - Southern Conf TOTAL OF THE MONTH on Mercer/Furman over 142½ -114

I love the value here with the OVER between Mercer and Furman in Wednesday's action out of the Southern Conference. Both of these teams come into this game clicking on the offensive side of the ball.

The Bears are averaging 78.2 ppg on 53% shooting in their last 5 and the Paladins are averaging 77.6 ppg on 46% shooting in their last 5. 

It's worth noting the spread here, with Furman currently laying 11-points at home. The OVER is 9-2 the last 2 seasons when the Paladins are a home favorite of 10 or more and the average score in these games is 159.9. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Wofford/VMI over 137½ -115

I really like the value here with the OVER between Wofford and VMI. I think we are getting some value here with the number due to the fact that these two played to a combined score of just 120 in an earlier meeting. 

Thing is both teams shot poorly in that matchup with VMI connecting on just 35% of their attempts and Wofford at 43%. The two also went a combined 15 of 55 from 3-point range. Wofford averages 10 made 3's a game and VMI averages 11, so that was clearly an off night for both teams. Note each of the previous 3 meetings between these two saw a combined score of 166 or more. 

VMI comes in losers of 3 straight and that's a positive here, as the OVER is 16-4 in their last 20 off 3 straight losses and 6-0 in their last 6 at home after 2 or more losses. OVER is also 20-8 in Wofford's last 28 off a conference win by 20 or more and 8-1 in their last 9 off a cover as a double-digit favorite. Take the OVER! 

3* NCAAB - Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Air Force +11 -112

The Falcons are definitely worth a look here as a double-digit road dog at Nevada. This is just way too many points for the Wolf Pack to be laying with how they are playing. Nevada is just 3-5 over their last 8 games and have lost their last two. 

Air Force has lost 4 straight and failed to cover all 4, but that's definitely playing into this favorable price we are getting. Falcons will be extremely motivated here and have had a full week to prepare, having not played since last Tuesday at home against Fresno State. As for Nevada, they were in action on Saturday. 

Air Force is a profitable 28-17-1 ATS when they have an advantage in rest under head coach Dave Pilipovich. Falcons are also 15-7 ATS last 22 games vs a team with a winning record and 7-3 ATS last 10 on the road vs a team that's won more than 60% of their home games. Take Air Force! 

5* NCAAB - SEC TOTAL PLAY OF THE MONTH on Auburn/Arkansas over 143 -115

We should have no problem cashing the OVER in tonight's big SEC showdown between Arkansas and No. 11 Auburn. These are not only two of the top offenses in the SEC, but both of these teams like to play fast. Razorbacks are 3rd in the SEC in tempo and Auburn is 5th. 

Auburn comes in having scored 74 or more in 4 straight games and have done so in each of their last two games despite shooting worse than 38% from the field. Arkansas has scored 70 or more in each of their last 4 and 7 of their last 8 overall. Razorbacks are also giving up 75 ppg over their last 5. Last time they were at home they allowed 79 points on 50% shooting to South Carolina. 

OVER is 5-1 in Arkansas' last 6 as a home favorite and 40-22 in Auburn's last 62 on the road against top tier teams that are outscoring opponents by 8+ ppg at least 15 games into the season. Take the OVER! 

4* NCAAB - Sharp Money ATS HEAVY HITTER on Tennessee +6 -110

I like the value here with the Volunteers as a decently priced road dog against the Crimson Tide. Alabama went on that ridiculous 12-game ATS run and I think it simply has them overvalued right now. Tide have failed to cover each of their last 3 games. 

During this stretch they only won by 3 at home against K-State as a 9.5-point favorite, lost by 14 at LSU as a mere 3-point dog and most recently lost by 4 as a 3.5-point home favorite against Arkansas. 

Big reason things have gone south for Alabama is injuries. I think the loss of Herb Jones is huge as he was one of their top defenders. Without him they let the Razorbacks shoot 48% from the field and while Tennessee has lost 3 straight they have shot the ball well. Vols are shooting 48% from the field in their last 5 games. 

Tennessee is a profitable 36-18 ATS off 2 straight conference losses, while Alabama is a mere 2-10 ATS last 12 when they come in having failed to cover 3 of their last 4. Take Tennessee! 

5* NCAAB - Big Sky PLAY OF THE MONTH on Northern Arizona -1 -110

I love the value here with the Lumberjacks at basically a pick'em on their home floor against the Eagles. I get Eastern Washington is sitting on top the Big Sky right now, but Northern Arizona is rolling right now. Lumberjacks have won 5 straight and are a strong 7-2 at home this season. 

Speaking of playing at home, this will be the 4th straight home game for the Lumberjacks, which is huge this time of year. As for the Eagles, they just played at Sacramento State on Saturday and will be back on the road with just 1 day of rest. 

Another thing here is Eastern Washington has not defended the 3-point line very well and this Northern Arizona team can light you up from deep. They are averaging 9 made 3's on their home floor and are shooting 39% from behind the 3-point line at home. 

Lumberjacks are also 8-1 ATS last 9 vs a team with a winning record, including a 6-1 ATS mark in their last 7 at home vs a team with a winning road record. Take Northern Arizona! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night ATS CASH COW on Hawaii -6 -109

I like the value here with the Rainbow Warriors at home against CS-Northridge. Hawaii is at a huge advantage here, as they get ready to play their 4th straight at home. Rainbow Warriors haven't had to leave their island in over two weeks. They have also won each of those last 3 at home. 

The Matadores have been hit or miss of late, as they have alternated wins and losses since a 3-game winning streak around the new year holiday. They come in off a win at home over UC-Santa Barbara, but lost their previous game at Fullerton. 

While Hawaii hasn't had to leave home, Northridge will be playing their 5th road game in their last 7 games overall. Take Hawaii! 

3* NCAAB - Prime Time ATS MONEYMAKER on Clemson -1 -110

I really like the value here with the Tigers at basically a pick'em at home against the Demon Deacons. Clemson is coming off a big time 71-70 win at home over Syracuse a game the Tigers can get a lot of confidence from. Orange had really been playing well coming into that game and Clemson won despite a poor effort from their best player in Aamir Simms. 

Look for the Tigers to have their way here against a struggling Wake Forest team. Demon Deacons have lost 6 of 7 with their only win against BC at home. While Clemson only won by 3 at home over WF in an earlier meeting, they shot 50% from the field and it really should have been a much bigger blowout. 

Tigers are 23-10 ATS last 33 vs a team with a losing record and 8-2 ATS last 10 off a SU win. Road team has also covered 5 of the last 7 and the favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6. Take Clemson! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on Arkansas State -2 -110

I like the value here with the Red Wolves at basically a pick'em at home against the Chanticleers. This is just too good a price to pass up with Arkansas State. Red Wolves are off a home loss to Appalachian State, but had won 3 straight prior to the setback. 

Coastal Carolina is the perfect team for them to get back on track against. Chanticleers have lost 4 straight, three of those at home. The most recent was on the road Thursday at Little Rock and they got annihilated by 17. Hard to see them showing up with the kind of effort needed to win this game on just 1 day of rest. 

Coastal Carolina is 1-6 ATS last 7 vs a team that's won more than 60% of their games and the Red Wolves are 10-1 ATS last 11 off a SU loss and 6-1 ATS last 7 as a home favorite. Take Arkansas State! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on San Jose State -3½ -109

I really like the value here with the Spartans as a small home favorite against the Cowboys. San Jose State has lost 4 of 5 and fresh off a 26-point blowout loss at Boise State. It might make you think they are a team to avoid, but Wyoming is a team they should honestly be favored by more against. 

Cowboys have lost 8 straight and all but one of those came by fewer than 9 points, so it's not like they are close to winning. Wyoming is 0-10 in Mountain West play and for them to be favored by this little on the road is a bit of a joke. 

Spartans have covered 4 of their last 5 at home and are a perfect 6-0 ATS last 6 off a game where they failed to cover. Take San Jose State! 

5* NCAAB - MAC GAME OF THE MONTH on Miami-OH +4½ -109

I love the value here with the Redhawks as a small road dog against the Huskies. Miami (OH) had their game on Tuesday postponed, which means they haven't been in action since last Saturday. That should work out as a big positive for the Redhawks in this one, especially with Northern Illinois playing on just 3 days of rest. 

Huskies are also a team that has had a real hard time playing up to their potential against lesser opponents. Northern Illinois is a mere 1-6 ATS last 7 games vs a team with a losing record. They have also failed to cover 5 of their last 6 as a favorite. 

Adding even more value here is how the dog has owned this series, cashing a winning ticket in 17 of the last 21 meetings between these two teams. Take Miami (OH)! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on George Mason/St Bonaventure under 132½ -109

I like the value with the UNDER quite a bit in Saturday's action out of the Atlantic 10, which has St. Bonaventure hosting George Mason. The Bonnies snapped their 3-game losing streak with a 62-55 win at Fordham. St Bonaventure limited the Rams to just 33% shooting and I look for them to carry over that strong defensive effort here at home against the Patriots. 

It also helps that George Mason's offense is in a bit of a slump. They have shot 38% or worse from the field in each of their last 3 games and last time on the road they managed just 53 at Davidson, who ranks near the bottom of the league in defensive efficiency. 

UNDER is 11-3 in St Bonaventure's last 14 home games and 10-2 in their last 12 as a home favorite. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB - Vegas Oddsmakers LINE MISTAKE on NC State +3½ -110

The Wolfpack are definitely worth a look here as a home dog against the Cardinals. The fact that NC State is only a 3.5-point dog really says it all, as the books know the public is going to pound No. 6 ranked Louisville in this one. Cardinals have won 7 straight, while the Wolfpack have lost their last two. 

Thing is, while Louisville's last two wins have both come in blowout fashion, their previous 4 games were all decided by 6-points or less, including a mere 3-point win at Notre Dame and a OT win at Pitt. Two teams that I think NC State is better than. 

Wolfpack are coming off a shocking 10-point loss at home to a struggling UNC team, but you have to think some of that was them looking ahead to this game. They are 12-5-1 ATS last 18 off a double-digit loss at home and have gone a dominant 6-1 ATS in their last 7 as a home dog. Home team has also covered 5 straight in the series. Take NC State! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Drexel/Delaware under 141½ -110

I like the value here with the UNDER in Saturday's CAA action that has Drexel visiting Delaware. Drexel is your ideal team for a low scoring game. The Dragons really struggle to score offensively, but are sound on the defensive side of the ball. 

So even if there defense slips like it has in their last two games, they don't figure to score enough to push it over the mark. Drexel only managed 59 last time out at Hofstra and 52 the game before at Northeastern. As for Delaware, they like to play fast, but are only averaging 72.8 ppg in their last 5. 

I just don't see these two combining for more than 140 points. UNDER has cashed in 7 of their last 9 road games and is 7-3 in their last 10 as a road dog. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB - Early Bird ATS NO-BRAINER on Villanova -6 -109

Easy play here on the Wildcats laying what I feel is a very favorable number at home against the Bluejays. Villanova is rolling right now, as they come in having won 7 straight. Hard to see them slowing down at home, where they are a perfect 10-0 this season, including 5-0 at home in Big East play. 

Creighton comes in having won 3 straight, but are just 3-4 away from home. Even more important is how the Bluejays have not been able to crack the code of Jay Wright and Villanova. Wildcats are 9-1 SU and 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. That includes a 6-point win at Creighton earlier this season and Villanova won that game shooting just 38% from the field. 

Wildcats are 31-15 ATS last 46 as a home favorite and the Bluejays are a mere 12-25 ATS last 37 as an underdog. Take Villanova! 

5* NCAAB - MAAC PLAY OF THE MONTH on Quinnipiac/Canisius under 149 -112

I love the value here with the UNDER in Friday's action out of the MAAC. This is a really big number for these two to get to. Canisius likes to play fast, which I think is playing into the high total, but they are just 10th out 11 in offensive efficiency in the MAAC and will be up against a Quinnipiac defense that is 2nd in the conference in effective field goal defense. 

Canisius also comes into this game in poor form. In their last two games they have scored 66 points on 43% shooting at Iona and just 55 points on 40% shooting at Fairfield. Quinnipiac has scored 61 points or fewer in 3 of their last 4, including a mere 61 last time out on the road against a bad Siena defense. 

UNDER is 11-4 in Quinnipiac's last 15 road games vs a team with a winning home record and 7-3 in their last 10 games overall. Take the UNDER! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Oregon State +7 -110

I really like the value here with the Beavers as a near double-digit dog against the Cardinal. I get Oregon State comes in having lost and failed to cover each of their last 4 games, but I think that's why we are getting such a great number with the Beavers in this matchup. 

Stanford started out Pac-12 play with 4 straight wins, but I think a lot of that had to do with a favorable schedule to start out league play. They have since lost back-to-back on the road to USC and most recently rival Cal. 

Cardinal are just 1-4 ATS last 5 off a SU loss. Oregon State is 10-4 ATS last 14 off a double-digit loss at home and 6-2 ATS last 8 as a road dog. Road team has also covered 5 of the last 6 in the series. Take Oregon State! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on CS-Fullerton/Cal Poly over 131½ -109

The OVER is definitely worth a look between CS-Fullerton and Cal Poly. This is a really low number for how good the Titans have been on the offensive side of the ball in their last two games. Fullerton followed up a 78-point outburst at Cal Davis with 82 at home against CS-Northridge. 

They got a great shot here to stay hot against a slumping Mustangs defense. Cal Poly allowed 97 on 54% shooting at CS-Riverside and then allowed 74 on 48% shooting at UC-Irvine. All we really need here is for the Titans to get to 70, as they are allowing 71 ppg in league play. 

OVER is 8-1 in Fullerton's last 9 vs a team with a losing record. It's also 6-0 in Cal Poly's last 6 vs a team with a losing record and 4-0 in their last 4 at home after playing 3 straight on the road. Take the OVER! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on South Dakota/Denver over 149 -110

Easy play on the OVER in tonight's Summit League action that has South Dakota visiting Denver. These are two of the fastest paced teams in the league with the Coyotes ranking 3rd in tempo and the Pioneers 2nd. 

South Dakota is absolutely lighting it up on the offensive end right now. The Coyotes have scored 83 or more in each of their last 3 and 80 or more in 5 of their last 6. Hard to see them not getting to 80 in this one. Denver is giving up 78 ppg in conference play. 

South Dakota's defense is also allowing a lot, as they are giving up 76 ppg in Summit action and have allowed 80 or more in 3 of their last 5. OVER is 10-4 in the Coyotes last 14 road games. It's also 13-3 in Pioneers last 16 as a home dog and 6-0 in their last 6 at home vs a team with a losing road record. Take the OVER! 

5* NCAAB - Colonial Athletic PLAY OF THE MONTH on College of Charleston -5½ -110

Love the value here with the Cougars laying what I think is a really small number on the road against a bad James Madison team. I believe the value with Charleston stems from their recent run that's saw them go 1-3 in their last 4 and fail to cover 5 straight. 

Two of those losses were by 3-points or less and they should have no problem bouncing back with a convincing win against the Dukes. James Madison is just 1-8 in league play. They have lost 6 straight and are 0-5-1 ATS in this stretch. Each of their last 4 setbacks have come by at least 7 points. 

Going on the road after playing their last few at home has been a huge buy on spot for Charleston, as the Cougars are 5-0 ATS last 5 on the road after playing 3 straight at home. Dukes are 7-19 ATS last 26 as a dog and have failed to cover 7 straight games vs a team with a winning record. Take Charleston! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas Oddsmakers ERROR on La Salle +4 -110

I really like the value here with the Explorers as a home dog against the Billikens. I just think we are getting a great price here on La Salle due to the fact that they come in having lost 5 straight. Thing is 3 of the 5 were on the road and one of the home games was against VCU. 

St Louis has won 4 of 6, but they continue to be overvalued by the books. The Billikens are just 2-6 ATS over their last 8 games. They have failed to cover 5 of their last 7 when laying points and are just 1-7 ATS after holding their previous opponent to less than 50 (allowed 39 to Fordham). Explorers are 5-2 ATS last 7 as a home dog and 4-0 ATS last 4 off a double-digit loss at home (lost 76-65 to VCU). Take La Salle! 

5* NCAAB A-10 PLAY OF THE MONTH  on Duquesne +9 -110

Love the value here with the Dukes as a near double-digit home dog against the Flyers. Dayton comes in at 7-0 in A-10 play and have won 9 straight overall and it simply has the Flyers laying way to big a number on the road against a Duquesne team that is not only capable of covering but winning this game outright. 

The Dukes come in having lost their last two, both on the road. The first was understandable at Rhode Island, but losing at UMass really looks bad. You just have to factor in the spot. Playing on just two days of rest in back-to-back road games in a major lookahead spot with this game on deck. Duquesne is a perfect 8-0 at home this season and have gone 4-1-1 ATS last 6 at home vs a team that's won more than 60% of their road games. Take Duquesne! 

3* NCAAB - No Doubt ATS BLOWOUT on George Washington +5½ -109

Easy play here on the Colonials as a home dog against Davidson. While the Wildcats have won and covered 3 straight, the last two were at home and the other was on the road against a bad Fordham team. I think this recent stretch has Davidson back to being overvalued, especially on the road where they are just 4-8 SU and 3-9 ATS. 

George Washington has been a covering machine of late. The Colonials have cashed a winning ticket in 5 of their last 6 games and are 3-1 in their last 4, with two outright wins as a dog. The big thing to note is this surge for GW has coincided with the move to insert freshman Chase Paar into the starting lineup. He's been a difference maker and it should have the Colonials continuing to show value the rest of the way. Take George Washington! 

4* NCAAB - Situational ATS HEAVY HITTER on St. John's +3½ -109

I really the value here with the Red Storm catching points at home. St John's comes in with a mere 2-6 mark in Big East play, but it's not as bad as it looks. Their 4 conference road games, all losses, have come against Xavier, Georgetown, Providence and Marquette. They also have home losses to Butler and Seton Hall, but could have easily won both, losing by 2 to the Bulldogs and by 3 to the Pirates. 

St John's definitely has what it takes to win outright and I think that's why the books are begging the public to lay the short number with Villanova. Red Storm have won 2 of the last 3 meetings and I think they are catching the Wildcats in a good spot, playing on just 2 days of rest after a big road win at Providence. 

Plus, Villanova is likely to be down one of their better players in Jermaine Samuels, which is a big blow as they are a much better team with him on the floor than not. St John's is also 9-3-1 ATS at home this season and are 6-1 ATS last 7 as a home dog. Wildcats are 3-9-1 ATS last 13 on the road and just 2-6-1 ATS last 9 as a road favorite. Take St John's! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Iowa -5½ -110

I really like the value here with Iowa laying what I feel is a short number at home against the Badgers. Hawkeyes are 9-1 at home this season and haven't lost at home since early November. They have been outstanding at home in Big Ten play, knocking off Minnesota, Maryland Michigan and Rutgers. 

Wisconsin really has a hard time on the road for a couple of reasons. The biggest being they don't shoot the ball nearly as well, especially from the outside and they don't defend the outside shot. That's a recipe for disaster with this Iowa team. It's also a lot harder to get teams to play at your pace on the road. Another big problem against the Hawkeyes who are tops in the Big Ten in tempo. 

Wisconsin also isn't great on the boards. They had just 16 rebounds in their 19-point loss at Purdue. Iowa is the No. 1 offensive rebounding team in the Big Ten, so even when the shots aren't falling, Hawkeyes figure to get multiple chances to put the ball in the basket. 

Add in Iowa has been off since Wednesday and will be playing just their second game in 10 days and I just think it adds up to an easy win and cover for the home team. Take Iowa! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Loyola-Chicago/Northern Iowa under 131 -109

I really like the value here with the UNDER between Loyola-Chicago and Northern Iowa. This is a big time matchup in the MVC. The Ramblers are currently sitting on top the conference at 6-1, but the Panthers are right on their heels at 5-2 and can essentially take over the top spot with a win here, as they would own the tie-breaker. 

I just think we are going to get the best of both teams on the defensive side of the ball. Loyola-Chicago is the best defensive team in the MVC and also the slowest in terms of tempo. It's why the UNDER has cashed in all 7 of their conference games. Only once have they allowed a MVC opponent to top 58 points. 

UNI is one of the better offensive teams, but the two best defensive teams in the conference behind the Ramblers are Southern Illinois and Indiana State. Panthers had just 68 points at home against the Sycamores and 66 at the Salukis. 

UNDER is 13-3-1 in Loyola's last 17 games as a road dog and 4-1 in the Panthers last 5 vs a team with a winning record. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Over/Under Total ANNIHILATOR on Vanderbilt/South Carolina under 142 -109

The books have completely missed the mark with the total they have set for Saturday's SEC matchup between Vanderbilt and South Carolina. These are two of the worst offensive teams in the conference. The Gamecocks rank 11th in offensive efficiency and the Commodores are dead last at 14th. No surprise given how they struggle to generate easy baskets. SC is 12th in 2-point field goal percentage and Vandy is 11th. 

The one area where the Gamecocks have done well offensively is shoot the 3, as they are 3rd in 3-point field percentage. Just so happens that's one of the few things that the Commodores defend well, as they are 4th in the SEC in 3-point field goal defense. 

UNDER is 20-8 in Vanderbilt's last 28 as an underdog and 8-0 in their last 8 vs a team with a winning record. UNDER is also 6-0 in the Commodores last 6 off 2 straight loss by 10 or more and 7-0 in their last 7 after scoring 65 points or less in 3 straight games. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Vegas ATS Line MISTAKE on Ohio +5½ -109

Easy play here on the Bobcats as a decently priced home dog against the Zips. While Ohio is just 2-4 in MAC play, this young Bobcats team has been in every game and there's no reason to think they don't have a shot of winning this outright. 

I get Akron has won and covered 5 of their last 6 games, but a bunch of those have come against the bottom half of the conference. I just think the Zips could be a little full of themselves right now and also being asked to cover an inflated number. 

Bobcats have been outstanding in this spot, covering 9 of their last 10 as a home dog of 3.5 to 6 points and winning by an average of 2-points/game. Take Ohio! 

5* NCAAB ACC ATS PLAY OF THE MONTH on Clemson +11 -110

I love the value here with the Tigers catching double-digits against Louisville. The Cardinals come in having won 5 straight and that's definitely playing into this inflated number. What gets overlooked in their winning streak, is that 4 of the 5 wins have come by 6 or fewer points, including a mere 4-point win at home last time out against Georgia Tech as a 13-point favorite. 

Clemson failed to cover in a 71-68 win at home against Wake Forest in their last game, but the Tigers had covered each of their previous 4 games, including a 79-72 home win over Duke as a 10.5-point dog. 

Tigers are 8-2 ATS last 10 games as an underdog and have covered 4 of their last 5 vs a team with a winning record. Cardinals are just 1-4 ATS last 5 at home vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their road games and 1-3-1 ATS last 5 as a favorite. Not to mention the underdog has covered 4 of the last 5 in the series. Take Clemson! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total DESTROYER on Clemson/Louisville over 127½ -109

The OVER is definitely worth a look here between Clemson and Louisville. I'm not expecting a shootout by any means, but these two should easily surpass this low number. Only once in Louisville's 8 conference games have they combined for fewer than the total for this game and that was a home game against Pitt back in early December. 

It's a similar story with Clemson, who has had just one of their last six conference games fail to reach 139 points. With how Louisville likes to attack in transition and the Tigers willingness to let teams shoot from deep (Cardinals hitting 38% from deep), I see them flirting with 70 points and I think Clemson can definitely keep pace. 

OVER has cashed in 5 of the Tigers last 6 overall and is 25-12 in their last 37 as a road dog. OVER is also 5-1-1 in Louisville's last 7 home games vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their games. Take the OVER! 

4* NCAAB - Over/Under Total NO-BRAINER on Villanova/Providence over 136½ -109

I'll gladly take my chances here with the OVER in Saturday's Big East showdown between Providence and Villanova. The Wildcats have got their offensive act together of late in conference play, as they are averaging 78.3 ppg in their last 3 Big East games. 

Hard to see them slowing down against a Friars defense that has really struggled against the top teams in the Big East, as they allowed 70 points on 56% shooting to Butler at home and 73 points on 58% shooting at Seton Hall last time out. 

Key here is I think we see Providence snap out of their recent offensive funk, which has seen them shoot under 40% in each of their last 4 games. While Villanova's defense was great last time out at home against Butler, they let UConn shoot 49% and DePaul to connect on 48% in their previous two games. 

Friars last two were also on the road and that's worth noting as the OVER is 37-16 last 53 after 2 straight road games and 16-6 in their last 22 off 2 straight road losses. OVER is also 68-45 in Villanova's last 113 games as a road favorite and 55-32 last 87 road games off a conference win by 10 or more. Take the OVER! 

5* NCAAB - MAC TOTAL PLAY OF THE MONTH on Kent State/Buffalo under 156 -110

I absolutely love the value here with the UNDER in Friday's massive total in the MAC between Buffalo and Kent State. No question these are two of the better offensive teams in the MAC, but this is just too many points. 

Both of these teams rank in the Top 6 in defensive efficiency in the MAC and Kent State is one of the few teams that can slow down Buffalo. Bulls are not a great 3-point shooting team. They are No. 1 in the MAC in 2-pt percentage, yet 11th in 3-pt percentage. That plays right into the Golden Flashes defense, which is No. 2 in the conference in 2-pt percentage defense. 

Bulls are coming off back-to-back high scoring games, as they had 86 in a win at Central Michigan and then 90 at home against Western Michigan. That's important to note as the UNDER is a perfect 7-0 in their last 7 home games after two straight games where they scored 85 or more. UNDER is also 6-0 in their last 6 at home off 4 or more consecutive wins. Take the UNDER! 

3* NCAAB - Late Night ATS ANNIHILATOR  on Idaho State +6 -109

I like the value here with the Bengals as a decently priced home dog against the Grizzlies. Most will be running to the ticket window to back Montana here, as they sit on top the Big Sky with a 6-1 record, but I think this is a really tough spot for them on the road against a hungry Idaho State team. 

Bengals have already knocked off one of the top teams in the Big Sky at home, defeating Eastern Washington 75-69 as a similarly priced 7.5 point dog. Idaho State is also a great bet when getting points. Bengals are 8-3-1 ATS last 12 games as a dog. They have also covered 6 of their last 9 vs a team with a winning record. Montana is also 4-14 ATS last 18 off a home win and just 2-9 ATS at home off a conference win. Take Idaho State! 

4* NCAAB - Late Night BAILOUT BLOWOUT on Grand Canyon -2 -117

The Antelopes are worth a look here as a small home favorite against Seattle. Grand Canyon is coming into this one riding a wave of momentum off back-to-back road wins over Chicago State and UMKC. 

Completely different vibe for the Redhawks coming into this one. Seattle just had their 3-game losing streak snapped in a crushing 67-75 loss at home to New Mexico State, where they were down just 2 with 2 minutes to go. 

Redhawks are also a mere 1-7 ATS last 8 games when listed as a dog and have failed to cover 4 straight when getting points on the road. Take Grand Canyon!

4* NCAAB - Sharp Money ATS HEAVY HITTER on Tenn-Martin +8 -109

The Skyhawks are definitely worth a look here as a near double-digit road dog against the Panthers. There's just no reason Eastern Illinois should be laying this kind of number. Both of these teams are bad. Panthers are 2-4 in OVC play and the Skyhawks are 1-5. 

Thing is Tennessee-Martin is the much better offensive team and should have a big edge at the free throw line, as they ranked 3rd in the conference in free throw rate, while the Panthers are 10th. I just don't see Eastern Illinois being able to pull away enough here to cover this big number and wouldn't be completely shocked if they lost outright. 

Panthers are just 2-6 ATS last 8 at home vs a team with a losing road record and just 1-6 ATS last 7 overall. Take Tennessee-Martin! 

4* NCAAB - Situational VEGAS INSIDER on Utah +1½ -111

I really like the value here with Utah as a home dog against the Huskies. Washington has not been the same team since losing point guard Quade Green and this couldn't be a much better spot to buy low on Utah. 

Utes comes in having lost 5 of 6 since that big upset win over Kentucky, including a 1-4 start to Pac-12 play, but it's not as bad as it looks. Their 5 losses have come against the likes of San Diego St, Oregon, Colorado, Arizona and Arizona State. The only one of those defeats at home was a mere 5-point loss to a really good Oregon team. In their win they beat Oregon State by 12 and I wouldn't be shocked at all if they won here by double-digits. 

Utes are 35-17 ATS last 51 at home after 2 or more losses in a row and 16-5 ATS last 21 after failing to cover 3 straight. Take Utah! 

5* NCAAB - C-USA PLAY OF THE WEEK on Florida Atlantic +4 -109

I love the value here with the Owls as a road dog against the 49ers. I'm confident FAU will not only cover, but win this game outright. Charlotte is simply overvalued right now. The 49ers come in at 4-2 in C-USA play, but all 4 wins have come against teams who are 3-3 or worse in league play. Their only game so far against a team in the top half of the standings was a game at WKU and they got annihilated by a score of 80-63. 

FAU is definitely going to be up for this game after losing one they shouldn't have at home against UAB on Saturday. Owls have not lost back-to-back games since dropping two in a row in early November to Miami and Alabama. They also have a nice scheduling edge, playing on 4 days of rest, while Charlotte is on just 2 days of rest and just played two in a row on the road. 

Owls are 13-6 ATS last 19 off a loss, 5-1 ATS last 6 road games against a team with a winning home record and a perfect 6-0 ATS last 2 seasons as a road dog of 6 points or less. Take FAU!
