02-02-17 | Belmont v. Murray State +4 | Top | 81-69 | Loss | -115 | 15 h 31 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Murray State Racers + the points over Belmont. The Bruins are riding a 12-game win streak, but should see that streak snapped on the road vs. Murray State tonight, as Belmont falls into a negative 43-77 ATS system of mine which plays against certain teams on win streaks. Additionally, the Racers are 124-18 straight-up in their last 142 home games, so we'll grab the points with Murray St. |

02-02-17 | 76ers v. Spurs -13.5 | Top | 86-102 | Win | 100 | 19 h 50 m | Show |
At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs minus the points over Philadelphia. (Analysis to follow.) |

02-02-17 | Hawks v. Rockets -9 | Top | 113-108 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 14 m | Show |

02-02-17 | Middle Tennessee v. Texas-San Antonio +14.5 | Top | 69-59 | Win | 100 | 13 h 27 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Texas San Antonio Roadrunners + the points over Middle Tennessee St. The Roadrunners have lost their last three games, but all three of those were on the road, where they have won just one game all season (69-68, as a 16.5-point underdog at Louisiana Tech). But at home, it's a different story, as Texas-San Antonio is a perfect 8-0 straight-up in front of its home faithful. We'll take the points with the Roadrunners, as they fall into a 123-51 ATS system of mine which plays on certain home teams with strong home courts. Even better: Middle Tennessee is a poor 2-14-1 ATS away from home off back-to-back home wins! Take Texas-San Antonio. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-02-17 | Canadiens v. Flyers -109 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 13 h 34 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Flyers over the Montreal Canadiens. Although they are comfortably ahead in the Atlantic Division with 67 points (the second place team has 58) and they seem almost certain to make the playoffs, the Canadiens will need to find a way to string consecutive victories together if they're to go deep in the post-season. After winning games in bunches through the first month of the season, the Canadiens have only been able to win back-to-back contests four times since Thanksgiving, and only once during that time did they win three in a row. They will try again tonight as the Habs won their last game on Tuesday against a pretty bad Buffalo squad, by an easy 5-2 score. But they have to go on the road in Philadelphia to do that, and that could make the task that much harder as the home team has won each of the last seven meetings between these two, and 22 of the last 25. Take the Flyers. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-02-17 | Missouri +22 v. Florida | Top | 54-93 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 30 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Missouri Tigers + the points over Florida, as Missouri falls into 177-85, 112-51, 95-36, and 130-83 ATS systems of mine. On the surface, it might look hard to take Mizzou, as it's lost 12 straight games, and is 6-9-2 ATS on the year, while Florida is off back to back SU/ATS wins, and is 11-8 ATS. But road teams without a winning record, or winning ATS record, that are off more than 5 losses, are 62% ATS vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins since 1991. Also, Florida has a home game this Saturday vs. rival Kentucky, and if history is any indication, it could be caught looking ahead to that match-up. Indeed, since 1991, Florida is an awful 7-18-1 ATS in games immediately before a home game vs. Kentucky, including 3-12 ATS vs. foes off back to back losses. Take Missouri. SEC Game of the Year! Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-02-17 | James Madison +7 v. Elon | Top | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 12 h 27 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on James Madison + the points over Elon. James Madison's lost its last four games, including an upset loss at Delaware on Saturday, while Elon's on a 4-game win streak. But I never have a problem grabbing points with "cold" teams in such situations. Indeed, JMU falls into a 487-338 ATS system of mine which targets such clubs. Moreover, Elon's a poor 36% ATS as a favorite vs. foes off upset losses over the past 27 years. Take James Madison. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Cincinnati v. Tulsa +8 | Top | 57-55 | Win | 100 | 18 h 48 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Tulsa Golden Hurricane + the points over Cincinnati. The Bearcats are 19-2 this season, after winning their 12 straight game, on Sunday vs. South Florida. But teams that have won more than 90% of their games (at Game 22 forward) are money-burners as favorites in the regular season. And especially when they're playing with less than 3 days' of rest. Since 1990, those teams have cashed just 42% of the time. Take Tulsa. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Texas Tech v. Texas -1.5 | Top | 58-62 | Win | 100 | 3 h 58 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Texas Longhorns minus the points over Texas Tech. The Red Raiders are a poor traveler, as they're 16-31 ATS their last 47 as road underdogs. And they're also 5-15 ATS at Texas when not getting more than 15 points. And they've lost their 20 straight games in Austin (straight-up), so that doesn't bode well for them tonight. Texas has covered seven of its last nine, and falls into a 147-84 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off SU losses vs. foes off SU wins. Finally, the Longhorns are an awesome 35-18 ATS at home since 1991 vs. conference foes when not laying 5+ points, including 11-2, 84.6% ATS vs. .735 (or worse) foes. Take Texas. NCAA Roadkill Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Nevada v. Utah State +3.5 | Top | 57-74 | Win | 100 | 18 h 40 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Utah St Aggies + the points over Nevada. The Aggies upset the Fresno St Bulldogs on Saturday, 78-65, as a 2-point home dog. And I like playing on home dogs to follow up one upset win as a home dog with a second straight upset. And especially later in the season, when priced as a home dog of +9 or less. Indeed, at Game 17 forward, those home dogs are 117-75 ATS. The Aggies have also gone 12-4 ATS at home vs. Nevada since 1993. Take the points with Utah St. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Northern Iowa +7.5 v. Illinois State | Top | 51-57 | Win | 100 | 9 h 39 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Northern Iowa Panthers + the points over Illinois St. The Redbirds have won 11 straight games, but might meet their match tonight against Northern Iowa. The Panthers are just 10-11 this year, and 5-5 in conference play. But Northern Iowa is red-hot with 3 SU/ATS wins in its last three games, and five straight conference wins, overall. We'll grab the points with the Panthers, as teams (like Illinois St) on a 10-game (or better) win streak have covered just 28% of the time since 2000 vs. .525 (or worse) foes off 3 SU/ATS wins. Also, .636 (or worse) teams on 5-game win streaks have cashed 63% as dogs of more than 7 points vs. .770 (or better) foes since 1990. Take Northern Iowa. NCAA Road Warrior. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Bruins v. Capitals -165 | Top | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 11 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Washington Capitals over the Boston Bruins. The Caps went into the All-Star Break with the best record in the NHL and with 72 points in the ultra-tough Metropolitan Division. Washington featured one of the strongest offenses in the league (160 goals) and the largest goal differential (+54). So how did they come out of the break? The Caps proceeded to throw in a clunker last night against the Islanders - a team they usually dominate without too much trouble. That game was on the road in New York and tonight the Caps will return to Verizon Center, where they are 19-5-1 as they seek to become the second team in the league to win 20 games at home (Pittsburgh). This could be the beginning of a successful stretch for the Caps, who will play five of their next six games here in DC. The Bruins meanwhile come into tonight having won their last three games (two before the break, and a victory over the Lightning on Tuesday) and this team hasn't won four in a row since November of 2015. The Bruins are 0-7 in the last seven meetings and 0-4 in the last four visits to Washington. They're also 3-13 in their last 16 games on zero days' rest. Take the Capitals. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | TCU +6 v. Kansas State | Top | 86-80 | Win | 100 | 16 h 9 m | Show |
At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the TCU Horned Frogs + the points over Kansas St. The Horned Frogs suffered a loss to Auburn, 88-80, as a 10-point home favorite last Saturday. But TCU generally bounces back from upset losses, including 9-0 ATS if it didn't lose by double-digits its previous game. Take TCU. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Villanova v. Providence +9.5 | Top | 66-57 | Win | 100 | 16 h 40 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Providence Friars + the points over Villanova. The Friars have a strong home court, as they've won 14 of their last 16 home games, and 51 of their last 64. They're also a solid 23-10 ATS at home when not favored by more than five points. And home dogs of +5 or more points that have won more than 10 home games (against 2 or less home losses) are 64.7% ATS the past 27 years. Take Providence. |
|||||||
02-01-17 | Georgia Tech v. Clemson -9 | Top | 62-74 | Win | 100 | 16 h 39 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Clemson Tigers minus the points over Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets have covered their last six games. But this ATS win streak has set up the Jackets in two negative systems of mine, with records of 66-120 and 92-152 ATS since 1990. Moreover, the Tigers lost as a 10-point favorite earlier this year at Georgia Tech. But teams playing with revenge from an upset loss earlier in the season as a favorite of more than 5 points are 173-121 ATS vs. .635 (or worse) foes. Take Clemson. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Wyoming v. San Diego State -9.5 | Top | 68-77 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 8 m | Show |
At 11 pm, our selection is on the San Diego St. Aztecs minus the points over Wyoming. Steve Fisher's men have dropped their last two games, but SDSU is a super 18-8 ATS as a conference favorite of -2+ points off back to back losses. And the Aztecs fall into a 111-60 ATS system of mine which plays on certain home favorites off back to back SU/ATS losses. Finally, San Diego St. is 9-3-1 ATS its last 13 vs. Wyoming, including 5-0-1 ATS when favored by more than 6 points. Take the Aztecs. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Georgia v. Kentucky -16.5 | Top | 81-90 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 8 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Kentucky Wildcats minus the points over Georgia. UK has dropped its last two games, at home vs. Kansas, and on the road to Tennessee. But off those two upset losses, we'll lay the points with Kentucky, as it falls into an awesome 89-40 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off back-to-back SU/ATS losses. Moreover, Kentucky is 8-0 ATS off an upset loss vs. foes with a .500 (or better) ATS win percentage. Take Kentucky. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Wisconsin v. Illinois +6.5 | Top | 57-43 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 59 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Illinois Illini + the points over Wisconsin. The Illini are 10-2 at home this season, and fall into a 136-61 ATS system of mine which plays on certain home underdogs with strong home courts. Additionally, the Illini have cashed 100% (8-0 ATS) as .500 (or better) home underdogs of +6 or more points. Take Illinois. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Jets v. Blues -138 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -138 | 8 h 27 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the St Louis Blues over Winnipeg. These two teams met just 10 days ago in Winnipeg, and the Jets won 5-3, even though they were outshot, 37-29. But Phoenix Copley was in goal that night (his first-ever NHL start). Tonight, the Blues will return to Jake Allen between the pipes. The Blues have dropped both meetings to the Jets this season. But the good news is that St Louis is 29-15 when playing with double revenge. Take St. Louis. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Predators v. Penguins -169 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 28 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Pittsburgh Penguins over the Nashville Predators. The Defending Stanley Cup Champions stumbled into the All-Star break with back-to-back losses against the Blues (here at home) and Bruins (on the road). The 3-0 loss to St. Louis last Tuesday was the first home shutout suffered by the Pens since last March. The Pens likely will relish the break more than their opponents tonight as the Predators are 0-4 in their last four games off of three or more days of rest. Also, the break may have been just what the doctor ordered as the Pens will see the return of Kris Letang (out since January 14 with a knee injury). Of course Evgeni Malkin won't be ready to come back from his injury tonight, but there's plenty of firepower left on this team to take care of things as Pittsburgh continues its pursuit of the Caps and Blue Jackets in the ultra-tough Metropolitan Division. The Predators are 2-7 in the last nine meetings with the Pens. Take Pittsburgh. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Flyers v. Hurricanes -130 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 27 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Carolina Hurricanes over the Philadelphia Flyers. The Flyers are off three wins, and have given up less than two goals in each of their last two games. But they're a poor 36-57 off back to back games where they allowed fewer than 2 goals. They've also won just 17 of 62 road games where the total was 5.5 goals. Take Carolina. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Creighton v. Butler -6.5 | Top | 76-67 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 1 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Butler Bulldogs minus the points over Creighton. These two teams met 20 days ago, and the Blue Jays won, 75-64, at home vs. Butler. That extended the record of the home team in this series to 6-1 ATS. We'll lay the points with Butler tonight, as the Bulldogs fall into a 156-97 ATS revenge system of mine. Also, Creighton falls into a negative 33-57 ATS angle of mine that fades certain teams off a win, if they lost by 20+ points two games back. The Bulldogs lost a rare home game on Saturday, when they were upset by Georgetown, 85-81. But the Bulldogs are a sensational 23-10 ATS at home, or on a neutral court, off an upset loss, including 8-0 ATS since Dec. 22, 2014. Additionally, Butler's an awesome 97-53 ATS in competitively-priced games, with single-digit pointspreads, if it's playing an opponent with a margin of victory of 7.4 or better. Take Butler. Big East Game of the Month! Good luck as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Central Michigan v. Buffalo -7 | Top | 91-101 | Win | 100 | 14 h 59 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Buffalo Bulls minus the points over Central Michigan. The Bulls come into this game off back to back losses. But both games were on the road. The Bulls are back home tonight, and they're 15-5 ATS since 2014 off a road loss. Even better: the Chippewas have covered just 10 of 38 vs. .600 (or worse) foes off a loss, including 0-9 ATS when priced from +2 to +7.5 points. Take Buffalo. |
|||||||
01-31-17 | Maryland v. Ohio State -2 | Top | 77-71 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 59 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Ohio St Buckeyes over Maryland. The Buckeyes lost, 85-72, at Iowa on Saturday. But I love them to bounce back at home, tonight. Since 2015, Ohio State is 11-0 ATS at home off a loss to a Big 10 rival. Take Ohio St. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | SIU-Edwardsville +19 v. Belmont | Top | 69-92 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 35 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on SIU-Edwardsville + the points over Belmont. The Cougars have dropped their last nine games, while Belmont is on an 11-game win streak. Unfortunately for the Bruins, their win streak has set them up into several negative systems of mine, with records of 71-111, 56-108 and 65-118 ATS since 1990. Even better: the Cougars' losing streak has triggered a strong 129-57 ATS system of mine. Finally, Edwardsville is 13-2 ATS as a dog of less than 20 points off 5+ losses, including 7-0 ATS vs. a foe off a win. Take the points with the Cougars. OVC Game of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | Nets +9.5 v. Heat | Top | 96-104 | Win | 100 | 27 h 31 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, on Monday, our selection is on the Brooklyn Nets + the points over Miami. These two teams met last week, and the Heat won, 109-106, as a 2-point road favorite. At the time, it was Miami's 5th straight win (both SU and ATS). But after upsetting Detroit, 116-103, on Saturday, the Heat's SU/ATS win streak has now reached 7 games. We'll fade Miami as a big home favorite, as .578 (or worse) teams are a dreadful 0-20 ATS in the regular season since Dec. 25, 2001, if they've covered their previous seven games, and their opponent failed to cover the spread by 9+ points in its previous game. With Brooklyn, indeed, off a pointspread loss by 9 points in its last game, a 129-109 blowout defeat at Minnesota, we'll grab the points with Kenny Atkinson's men on Monday night. NBA Conference Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | Texas State v. Appalachian State -2 | Top | 68-55 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 7 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our Sun Belt Conference Game of the Month is on the Appalachian State Mountaineers minus the points over Texas State, as the Mountaineers fall into a 39-14 ATS System of mine, which plays on certain teams off back to back losses. Appy State comes into this game with a 1-7 Sun Belt Conference record, but has been installed as a favorite over Texas State, which is 5-3 in Sun Belt play. But teams that have won less than 15% of their conference games, and own a much worse conference win percentage than their opponent (at least .400 worse, after at least six conference games), have cashed 61.1% the past 27 years when installed as a favorite/PK! Additionally, Appalachian St, which lost at home to Texas Arlington on Saturday, is 8-0 ATS its last eight off a home loss. Take the Mountaineers. Sun Belt Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-30-17 | Duke -1.5 v. Notre Dame | Top | 84-74 | Win | 100 | 5 h 9 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Duke Blue Devils over Notre Dame. The Blue Devils lost in the ACC Tournament last season to Notre Dame (and also were upset in the regular season), but fall into a great 95-51 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams playing with revenge from 2 losses the previous season. Additionally, Duke eked out an 85-83 win over Wake Forest on Saturday. And the Blue Devils are a solid 125-93 ATS off a game in which they scored 80+ points. Take Duke. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-29-17 | South Florida +25.5 v. Cincinnati | Top | 53-94 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 1 m | Show |
At 4 pm, our selection is on the South Florida Bulls + the points over Cincinnati. The Bearcats have won 11 in a row (covering their last two), while South Florida has lost its last eight games (failing to cover its last three). But we'll jump on the Bulls this afternoon, as they fall into one of my favorite systems, which is 177-84 ATS since 1990. Additionally, double-digit underdogs off 3 SU/ATS losses are 67% ATS away from home if they also failed to cover by double-digits in their previous game, and their opponent is off back to back SU/ATS wins. Finally, the Bulls are 7-0 ATS on the road if they didn't cover the spread in their previous game, while Cincy has covered just 6 of 28 as a home favorite of more than 10 points vs. foes off back to back losses. Take South Florida. NCAA Game of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-29-17 | UC-Santa Barbara v. Hawaii -6.5 | Top | 56-78 | Win | 100 | 18 h 22 m | Show |
At 12:30 am, on Sunday morning (or Saturday night, depending on your perspective), our selection is on the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (rotation #672) minus the points over Cal Santa Barbara. Hawaii comes into this game of back to back upset home losses to Cal Davis and Cal Riverside. But I love the Rainbow Warriors to stop their slide in this game vs. the Gauchos. Hawaii falls into several of my best systems, with records of 110-59, 82-47 and 128-71 ATS, that play on certain teams off upset losses. Moreover, since 1990, Big West favorites are a super 68% ATS in the regular season conference games the past 23 years, if they're off back to back upset losses. Take Hawaii. NCAA High Roller. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Georgetown v. Butler -9.5 | Top | 85-81 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 6 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Butler Bulldogs minus the points over Georgetown. The Hoyas upset Creighton, 71-51, earlier this week. But off that upset win, we'll fade John Thompson's men, as they fall into a 32-73 ATS 'letdown' system of mine that goes against certain teams off upset wins over exceptional foes (Creighton was 18-2 going into that game). These two teams met in DC earlier this month, and the Bulldogs got the better of the Hoyas, 85-76. I don't see much changing this evening, as Butler's a solid 43-32 ATS at home, including a perfect 7-0-1 ATS its last eight against foes it defeated earlier in the season. Take Butler. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Towson v. Northeastern -2.5 | Top | 62-69 | Win | 100 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Northeastern Huskies minus the points over Towson State. Northeastern has dropped its last four games, both SU and ATS, including an upset loss, here at home to Elon, two days ago. But Northeastern's losing streak has triggered several of my best systems, with records of 120-68, 195-124 and 102-47 ATS (since 1990). Additionally, the Huskies play with revenge from a loss at Towson on Jan. 14. And they fall into a 155-97 ATS 'revenge' system of mine. Finally, Colonial Athletic Ass'n teams are an awesome 78.9% ATS since 1990 as a favorite off an upset loss, if they also lost two games back, and are playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season to their opponent. Take Northeastern. CAA Game of the Year. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | UTEP +13.5 v. Marshall | Top | 91-68 | Win | 100 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Texas El Paso Miners + the points over Marshall. Utep has broken out of its mid-season swoon (which saw it lose 12 straight games) by winning three of its last four games (and covering its last two). UTEP did lose its last game at Western Kentucky, 65-62 (but covered as an 8-point underdog), and now falls into a great 316-185 ATS system of mine which plays on certain road teams off losses. Moreover, the Thundering Herd are a dismal 0-7 ATS vs. UTEP when the Herd has not had a worse ATS win percentage than UTEP. Take the points. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Oregon State +21 v. Utah | Top | 78-86 | Win | 100 | 13 h 56 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Oregon State Beavers + the points over Utah. The Utes just lost a tough game against the Pac-12's best team, Oregon. Now, they'll face the conference's worst team, Oregon State, which has yet to win in eight Pac-12 tilts this season. We'll grab the points with the Beavers, as Utah's an awful 10-43 ATS in Conference games when priced from -14 to -28 points if the Utes don't have a losing ATS record on the season, including 1-19 ATS vs. foes with an ATS win percentage below .465. Take Oregon St. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Baylor v. Ole Miss +7.5 | Top | 78-75 | Win | 100 | 12 h 59 m | Show |
At 6 pm, our selection is on the Ole Miss Rebels + the points over Baylor. Ole Miss falls into a great 54-24 ATS non-conference system of mine which plays on certain underdogs in non-conference games vs. foes off a win. Even better: Ole Miss has cashed 22 of 31 as an underdog the past 3 seasons, including a perfect 8-0 ATS when priced from +5 to +9 points, and 7-0 ATS vs. non-conference foes off a win. Take Mississippi. Good luck, as always....Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | NC-Wilmington v. William & Mary +6 | Top | 78-96 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
At 4 pm, our selection is on the William & Mary Tribe + the points over NC Wilmington. William & Mary lost by 24 at Wilmington earlier this month, but they're back home this afternoon, and they've gone 35-5 SU and 17-11 ATS at home since Feb. 17, 2014, including a perfect 5-0 ATS vs. .700 (or better) foes. We'll grab the points with the revenge-minded home underdog this afternoon, as it falls into a 64% ATS system of mine, which plays on home dogs of +5.5 or more points with strong home courts (with wins in at least 35 of their last 40 home games). |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Maryland v. Minnesota -4 | Top | 85-78 | Loss | -116 | 8 h 20 m | Show |
At 2 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Golden Gophers minus the points over Maryland. The Terrapins are on a 5-game SU/ATS win streak, but we'll fade them this afternoon in Minneapolis, as they've covered just 4 of their last 20 games away from home while on a 4-game ATS win streak. Also, Minnesota is a perfect 6-0 ATS since 1997 off back to back losses, if they're matched up against an .820 (or better) foe off back to back wins, and that foe also covered its previous game. Take Minnesota. |

01-28-17 | Florida v. Oklahoma +2.5 | Top | 84-52 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 4 m | Show |
At 2 pm, our selection is on the Oklahoma Sooners + the points over Florida. The Sooners come into this non-conference affair off back to back losses to Iowa State and Texas. But I look for Oklahoma to rebound today, as the Sooners have dominated SEC Conference foes at home, going 7-0 ATS since 2000. And the Sooners are also 7-0-1 their last eight off back to back losses, if they lost to a Conference foe in their previous game. Take Oklahoma. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | North Carolina v. Miami (Fla) +6 | Top | 62-77 | Win | 100 | 7 h 1 m | Show |
At 1 pm, our selection is on the Miami-Fla Hurricanes + the points over North Carolina. Miami is 9-1 at home this season, and has won 22 of its past 23 home games. That bodes well for the Hurricanes as a home underdog, as they fall into 123-55, 120-51 and 135-61 ATS systems of mine that play on certain home dogs with strong home courts. Also, the Hurricanes have lost their last three games to the spread, but are 12-0 ATS off 3+ ATS losses when matched up against .750 to .900 foes (North Carolina's win percentage is .863). Take Miami. |
|||||||
01-28-17 | Wisconsin v. Rutgers +16.5 | Top | 61-54 | Win | 100 | 6 h 3 m | Show |
At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights + the points over Wisconsin. Earlier this season, Wisconsin defeated Rutgers, 72-52, in Madison. But we'll grab the double-digits with the Knights this afternoon, as they fall into a super 95-34 ATS revenge system of mine, which plays on certain teams with revenge from a 20-point (or worse) defeat. Additionally, Big 10 Conference underdogs are an awesome 54-30 ATS since 1990 off a pointspread defeat when playing with revenge from defeat worse than 15 points earlier in the season. With Rutgers indeed off an ATS loss (at Maryland) in its last game, we'll grab the points this afternoon. High Noon Hanging. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-27-17 | Rockets -6 v. 76ers | Top | 123-118 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets minus the points over the Philadelphia 76ers. Mike D'Antoni's men have lost their last two games -- at Milwaukee and at Boston -- each as a 4-point favorite. But I love Houston to bounce back tonight and defeat the red-hot 76ers, who have won 10 of 13 games. In the NBA, road teams off a SU/ATS loss are 375-297 ATS in the regular season vs. foes off a win, if our road team isn't getting more than 6 points. And the Rockets are 102-50 ATS on the road off a SU/ATS loss, if they also failed to cover the spread two games back. Take Houston. NBA Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-27-17 | Magic +9 v. Celtics | Top | 98-128 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 21 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Orlando Magic + the points over the Boston Celtics. The Magic are off back to back SU/ATS losses to Golden State and Chicago, and have been installed as big underdogs at Boston, tonight. One thing in the Magic's favor tonight is that it has had the last two days off (while Boston's playing on just one day of rest). We'll grab the points with Frank Vogel's men, as underdogs of +8 or more points, off 2 SU/ATS losses, playing with at least two days' of rest vs. a less well-rested opponent, are 165-113 ATS. Also, the Celtics upset Houston in their last game, but are a poor 43-73 ATS at home off an upset win if their opponent is not off a SU/ATS win. Take Orlando. NBA High Roller Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Oregon v. Utah -2.5 | Top | 73-67 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 42 m | Show |
At 10:30 pm, our selection is on the Utah Utes minus the points over Oregon. Utah's covered its last five games, and has also won its last two in blowout fashion -- 88-47 at Washington St, and 94-72 at Washington. That bodes well for the Utes tonight, as home teams, not favored by 6+ points, off back to back 20 points wins, have cashed 89.4% at home since 1990 if they own a strong home court (with wins in at least 36 of their previous 40 home games), and are matched up against an opponent off back to back wins. Take Utah. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Cal Poly +14 v. UC-Irvine | Top | 79-66 | Win | 100 | 16 h 14 m | Show |
At 10 pm, our selection is on the Cal Poly SLO Mustangs + the points over Cal Irvine, as Cal Poly falls into 315-185, 94-36 and 62-17 ATS systems of mine. The Anteaters come into this game off 3 ATS wins, while Cal Poly has lost its last four games ATS. The knee-jerk reaction might be to play on the 'hot' Anteaters and against the 'cold' Mustangs. But Big West Conference road teams off 3 ATS losses have covered 14 of 15 (and 22 of 26) vs. conference foes off back to back ATS wins, including a perfect 7-0 ATS as double-digit dogs! Take Cal Poly + the points. Big West Game of the Year. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Eastern Washington v. Montana -5.5 | Top | 72-60 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 13 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Montana Grizzlies minus the points over Eastern Washington. The Eagles are 10-1 at home this season, but a poor 3-6 on the road. And the one team to defeat the Eagles at their home gym was Montana, back on Jan. 7. Since that game, Montana's split its four games, with home wins over N. Colorado and N. Dakota, but road losses at Portland St. and Sacramento St. their last two games. I look for the Grizzlies to bounce back off those last two losses, and sweep this season series, as the Eagles are an awful 11-28-1 ATS on the road, when priced from +4 to +6.5 points. Meanwhile, the Grizzlies are a super 73% ATS as favorites off back to back losses if playing a winning foe. And they fall into a 73-30 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off back to back losses. Take Montana. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Jets v. Blackhawks UNDER 5.5 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -116 | 5 h 60 m | Show |
At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the 'under' in the Chicago/Winnipeg game. This will be the fourth meeting between these two division rivals this season. The first three all comfortably sailed under the total, with results of 3-1, 2-1 and 4-0. I look for this game to once again be low-scoring, as the Jets have gone 'under' in 11 of 15 division games this year, while Chicago's gone 'under' in 34 of 51 home games when the line has been 5.5 goals. Take the 'under.' |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Sabres v. Stars -145 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 5 h 59 m | Show |
At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over Buffalo. Dallas' 6-game home stand has not started off well, as it's lost the first two games (vs. Washington and Minnesota) by scores of 4-3 and 3-2. But those are two of the best teams in hockey; Buffalo, notwithstanding its 3-game win streak, is not. And Buffalo rarely puts long win streaks together, as it's 4-15 off back to back wins. With the Stars 26-9 at home off back to back losses, we'll look for them to stop their slide tonight. Take Dallas. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Elon v. Northeastern -5 | Top | 51-49 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 13 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Northeastern Huskies minus the points over Elon. Both teams come into this game with 12 wins, though it's been the Fighting Christians (sorry, I can't resist using Elon's old nickname) who have been hotter, lately. Elon's won its last two games, and has covered its last six, while Northeastern's on a 3-game SU/ATS losing streak. But this cold patch has set up Northeastern in several of my strong systems, including one which is 194-123 ATS, which plays on certain favorites off back to back SU/ATS losses, and another which is 158-94 ATS. Additionally, Northeastern's cashed 80% as a favorite (or PK) vs. a foe off 3 SU/ATS wins the past 27 years, while Elon's only covered 14% over the past 14 years off 3 SU/ATS wins, if its opponent wasn't off a SU/ATS win. Take Northeastern. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | Kings v. Hurricanes -117 | Top | 3-0 | Loss | -117 | 4 h 30 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Carolina Hurricanes over Los Angeles. We played on Los Angeles on Tuesday night, and were rewarded with a 3-1 victory at New Jersey. But the Kings are still 1-4 in their last five games, and are 5-13 when playing at least their fourth road game in a row. Meanwhile, Carolina's 15-6 at home this season, and 3-1 off 3+ losses. Take the Hurricanes to snap their losing streak tonight. |
|||||||
01-26-17 | UC Riverside v. Hawaii -5.5 | Top | 70-64 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 0 m | Show |
At Midnight, our selection is on the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors minus the points over Cal Riverside. Hawaii dropped its last game, as a home favorite vs. Cal Davis. But that upset loss sets up our play tonight, as Hawaii falls into a very good 102-65 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams off upset losses. Additionally, Cal Riverside has covered its last five games, but now falls into a negative 109-190 ATS system of mine which fades certain teams off 5+ pointspread wins in a row. Hawaii is 8-0 ATS when priced from PK to -8 off an ATS defeat, while Riverside is a poor 0-10 ATS on the road off 3+ wins, if not getting more than 16 points. Take Hawaii. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | UCLA v. USC +6 | Top | 76-84 | Win | 100 | 18 h 4 m | Show |
At 11 pm, our selection is on the USC Trojans + the points over UCLA. The Trojans are 10-2 at home this season after defeating Arizona State, 82-79, here, on Sunday. Meanwhile, UCLA lost its last game, 96-85, to Arizona, yet has been installed as a big road favorite vs. USC, even though the Bruins are an awful 2-11 ATS their last 13 in Pac-12 play. Last year, these two rivals met three times, and the Trojans won all three meetings by 14+ points! We'll grab the points with USC, as home dogs of +5 or more points, off a win, have cashed 74% in conference games the past 27 years if they haven't lost more than 2 home games on the season (against at least 8 home wins), and their opponent is off a SU/ATS loss. Take USC. Pac 12 Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | Warriors -9 v. Hornets | Top | 113-103 | Win | 100 | 28 h 15 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors minus the points over Charlotte. The Warriors' 7-game win streak (and 5-game ATS win streak) was snapped Monday night by Miami, which upset the Warriors, 105-102, as an 11-point favorite. I look for Golden State to bounce back tonight, as favorites of less than 13 points, off a loss as a favorite of -11 or more points, have gone 112-74 ATS in the regular season since 1994. Moreover, the Warriors are 31-9 ATS off an upset road loss, if it's not favored by more than 11 points. Take the Warriors. NBA Game of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | Raptors v. Grizzlies -6 | Top | 99-101 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 24 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Grizzlies minus the points over Toronto. The Grizzlies have a big advantage tonight due to the two teams' respective schedules. Memphis will play this game with three days off, following a loss at home, this past Saturday to the Houston Rockets. Unfortunately for the Raptors, they'll be unrested, after losing last night, at home, to the Spurs. This is a terrific spot for Memphis, as it will also be playing with revenge from a 120-105 loss to the Raptors at the Air Canada Centre in November. And, since 1990, NBA revenge-minded teams, playing with at least three days' of rest, have gone 91-59 ATS at home off a loss vs. unrested foes. Toronto will once again be without All-Star DeMar DeRozan, and it's dropped its last four games SU/ATS. The Grizzlies are 8-1 ATS this year when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season. Take Memphis. NBA High Roller Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | Tennessee State -7 v. SIU-Edwardsville | Top | 76-56 | Win | 100 | 15 h 17 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Tennessee St. Tigers minus the points over SIU-Edwardsville. The Tigers come into this game on a 3-game losing streak, including two upset losses at home last week. But I love the Tigers to bounce back today against Edwardsville, which has lost 12 of its last 13 games (including 0-7 in Ohio Valley play), though Edwardsville did cover the spread in its last game, an 8-point defeat at Tennessee-Martin. The Tigers are an awesome 14-4 ATS as a road favorite vs. foes off a loss. And road teams have covered 64% the past 27 years off back to back home upset losses, if matched up against an opponent off a pointspread win. Take Tennessee St. Ohio Valley Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | Memphis v. Temple -1 | Top | 66-77 | Win | 100 | 13 h 12 m | Show |
At 6 pm, our selection is on the Temple Owls over Memphis. The Owls are a terrific 51-19 ATS at home since 2005, if not favored by more than six points, including 33-9 ATS vs. conference foes! That bodes well for the Owls on Wednesday. As does the fact that the Tigers are a horrid 16-33-1 ATS off a win, including 1-8 ATS as an underdog of less than 5 points. Take Temple. |
|||||||
01-25-17 | SMU v. UCF +4.5 | Top | 65-60 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 11 m | Show |
At 6 pm, our selection is on the Central Florida Knights + the points over SMU. UCF has a strong home court, as it's 10-1 at home this season, and it's also 18-13 ATS at home its last 31. Tonight, UCF falls into a 102-61 ATS system of mine which plays on certain home underdogs of less than 8 points with strong home records. Take the Knights. |
|||||||
01-24-17 | Sharks v. Jets -105 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 21 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Jets over San Jose. The Sharks have won five straight, but are in a brutal scheduling spot tonight. They had to play on the road last night, and this will be their 3rd game in four nights (with travel after the last two), and fourth in six nights. San Jose's a money-burning 5-8 off four (or more wins), while Winnipeg is 8-2 if it has lost at least five of its previous seven games. These two teams met earlier this month in San Jose, and Sharks came away with a 5-2 victory. But the Jets are 9-5 when if they lost the previous meeting on the road to their opponent. Also, Patrik Laine (21 goals and 16 assists) is ready to return tonight following his recovery from a concussion, so that will greatly help the Jets. Take Winnipeg at home tonight against San Jose. NHL Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-24-17 | Villanova v. Marquette +5.5 | Top | 72-74 | Win | 100 | 16 h 33 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Marquette Golden Eagles + the points over Villanova. We played against the #1-ranked Villanova Wildcats back on January 4, and were rewarded with a win by Butler, 66-58. Immediately after losing that game, the Wildcats rebounded with a win over these Golden Eagles, 93-81, in Philly. And the defending Champs have won each game since, for a 5-game win streak, and an overall record of 19-1. But much like that Butler team (which is unbeaten at home this season), Marquette sports a very strong home court. Marquette's won 10 of its 11 home games this season, and comes into tonight's game off an upset win over another team that had just one loss this season -- Creighton. We'll fade Villanova tonight, as .901 (or better) teams have covered just 24.1% of their road games off a home win, at Game 21 forward, if they're matched up against a conference foe with a Home W/L percentage better than .765, if that foe is also off a win (including 8 straight ATS losses since Feb 14, 2014). Take Marquette. NCAA Elite Info Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-24-17 | Kings -110 v. Devils | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 3 h 22 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Kings over the New Jersey Devils. Beginning Saturday, the Kings embarked on an incredibly tough stretch that will see them play nine of ten games on the road all the way through February 9. Then they have a strange seven day break with no games until they come back home for a game on the 16th. They came into this road stretch off of two home losses to the Lightning and Sharks and then proceeded to lose the first two on the road in New York to the Islanders (Saturday) and Rangers (Monday). Now the Kings travel across the river to New Jersey to take on the Devils who are in the midst of one of the most unlikely hot streaks of any team this season. The Devils come into this game having won four of their last five. However, only one of those four victories was against a team with a winning record (last Tuesday vs. the Wild), and this is a club that is just 1-6 in its last seven home games - and that doesn't bode well for this evening. The Devils have been without #1 goalie Cory Schneider, who has been down with a case of stomach flu, and although he is expected to be back between the pipes tonight, we'd be surprised if Schneider was close to 100% after not being able to eat for at least a couple of days. The road team is 5-2 in the last seven meetings. Take the Kings. NHL High Roller. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

01-23-17 | Panthers -130 v. Coyotes | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -130 | 7 h 4 m | Show |
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Florida Panthers over the Arizona Coyotes. Arizona won its last game, 5-3, vs. Tampa Bay. But the Coyotes had lost 4 in a row prior to that, and are still a dismal 14-32 on the season. Faithful followers know that I love to play against bad teams off wins, and I will do that here, and fade Arizona. Indeed, the Coyotes are a poor 4-8 off a win this season, and they're 4-16 off a home win in which they tallied more than 3 goals. Florida, meanwhile, is off 3 straight road losses. But the Panthers were underdogs (or PK) in each of those three roadies; here, they're playing an inferior team -- one of the two worst in hockey -- and solidly favored. The Panthers are a super 13-8 off 3 losses (+6 games on the moneyline). Take Florida. NHL Game of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-23-17 | Cavs -6.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 122-124 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 8 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers minus the points over New Orleans. The Cavs lost at home, in overtime , 118-115, to the league's 2nd best team, San Antonio, on Saturday. And the Cavs also lost three games back to the league's best team (Golden State), 126-91. So, LeBron James & Co. know that the road to repeat their championship season from a year ago will be tough. I expect them to have a renewed focus tonight, and to blow out the New Orleans Pelicans. Cleveland falls into a 325-194 ATS system of mine which plays on certain road teams, in non-division games, off losses. Take the Cavaliers. NBA Road Warrior. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-23-17 | Ducks +100 v. Jets | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 5 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Anaheim Ducks over the Winnipeg Jets. The Ducks were a hot team the last couple of weeks, having won five of six when they went into Minneapolis on Saturday and lost a tough one. Things looked great in the third period as the Ducks held a 3-2 lead against a very good team on the road more than halfway through the final stanza. But then with thirteen and a half minutes left, the wheels fell off as the Wild scored three goals in less than two minutes to come away with the victory. Look for the Ducks to take out their frustration from Saturday tonight in Winnipeg. The Jets are on a two-game winning streak, but Saturday's win here against the Blues was costly for them as RW Drew Stafford left with a lower-body injury and won't dress for tonight's game. Stafford was one of only three 20+ goal scorers for this anemic offense last season so the team can hardly afford to lose him. Conference Series don't get much more lopsided than this one has been recently. The Ducks are 10-1 in the last 11 meetings as well as 6-0 in the last six in Winnipeg. The road team is 4-1 in the last five meetings. Take Anaheim. NHL Road Warrior Winner. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-23-17 | Clippers +7.5 v. Hawks | Top | 115-105 | Win | 100 | 6 h 37 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Clippers + the points over Atlanta. It's true that the Clippers are short-handed, as both Chris Paul and Blake Griffin are sidelined. But we'll grab the points with Los Angeles tonight, as I look for it to bounce back from its 25-point loss at Denver. There's no doubt that Paul is extremely valuable (he ranks 6th in Player Efficiency Rating this season), but the Clippers' cupboard is far from bare. Raymond Felton is a decent replacement. And JJ Redick, Jamal Crawford and DeAndre Jordan are solid players. Los Angeles falls into an 80-33 ATS system of mine which plays on certain .540 (or better) teams to bounce back from double-digit losses. Also, Atlanta's 8-16 its last 24 games as a favorite, including 2-8 ATS when laying more than 4 points. Grab the points with Los Angeles. Underdog Shocker. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

01-22-17 | Steelers v. Patriots OVER 50 | Top | 17-36 | Win | 100 | 157 h 48 m | Show |
At 6:40 pm, our selection is on the 'over' in the Pittsburgh/New England game. We played on the 'over' in the Patriots/Texans game, and were rewarded with a 34-16 New England win. That high-scoring game extended New England's 'over' run to 78-49 its last 127, and 8-2-1 at home in the playoffs. Meanwhile, the Steelers have generally been an 'over' team in the Playoffs. Since 1983, Pittsburgh's gone 'over' 27-12-1, including 10-1 'over' if its opponent's defensive ppg was less than 16.36. New England, of course, is giving up just 15.64 ppg this season, but teams that give up less than 16 ppg have gone 'over' 57% in the Playoffs the past 37 years (and 67% if the O/U line was 46+ points). The 'over' falls into 60-29, 37-14 and 50-24 Totals Systems of mine. Take the 'over.' Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-22-17 | Steelers v. Patriots -6 | Top | 17-36 | Win | 100 | 157 h 47 m | Show |
At 6:40 pm, our selection is on the New England Patriots minus the points over Pittsburgh. The Patriots are a better team across the board. They own the better offense (27.94 ppg vs 24.83 ppg), better defense (15.64 vs. 19.72), better win percentage (.882 vs. .722), better pointspread differential (5.17 vs. 1.05), better pointspread win percentage (.823 vs. .611). They're also playing at home, and have been installed as a mid-sized favorite. In the Playoffs, when you get a team (like Pittsburgh) playing away from home against an opponent which is superior in every single one of these categories, it's not very surprising to learn that our inferior teams don't do very well. Of course, certain of our statistics bear more importance than others at this stage of the Playoffs. And one of the things I love to do in the Conference Championship round is play on the teams that own the better defense. Here, of course, that's New England. The Patriots have given up just 15.64 ppg this season, and that rates 4.08 ppg better than the Steelers' defense. And in the Conference Championship round, teams with a defensive ppg at least 1 point better than their opponent's defensive ppg, have cashed 100% (10-0 ATS) at home when priced from -2.5 to -6.5 points. New England's 8-1 SU and 6-3 ATS at home in the Playoffs since 2012. And it's 10-3-1 ATS vs. Pittsburgh in the last 14 meetings (as well as 4-0 ATS vs. Pittsburgh in the last four post-season meetings). Finally, road underdogs priced from +3.5 to +9.5 points are a dismal 6-17 ATS in the Conference Championship round if they pulled an upset win in the quarterfinals. Take New England. NFL Game of the Year! Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

01-22-17 | Virginia Tech v. Clemson -6 | Top | 82-81 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 28 m | Show |
At 6:30 pm, our selection is on the Clemson Tigers minus the points over Virginia Tech. The Tigers have dropped five straight games, both SU and ATS, including a 92-60 loss at Louisville on Thursday. But I love them to snap their losing streak on Sunday. Since 1990, the Tigers are 13-0 ATS as a favorite off an ATS loss, if they also lost by more than 15 points in their previous game, and are now matched up against a .375 (or better) foe. Take Clemson. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

01-22-17 | La Salle v. VCU -7 | Top | 52-90 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
At 2 pm, our selection is on the VCU Rams minus the points over LaSalle. VCU is 14-5 on the season, but lost its last two games, both as a favorite. But .701 (or better) teams have cashed 64.2% at home over the past 27 years off back to back upset losses, if they were favored by double-digits in their last game. Take Virginia Commonwealth. |
|||||||
01-22-17 | George Mason v. Richmond -6 | Top | 82-77 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 59 m | Show |
At 1 pm, our selection is on the Richmond Spiders minus the points over George Mason. Richmond returns home this afternoon after losing on Thursday, 75-59, as an 11-point underdog at Dayton. George Mason also lost its last game, but as a 13.5-point home favorite vs. St. Louis. Last year, these two teams met twice, with George Mason winning both games outright as an underdog. The Patriots upset the Spiders, 83-73, as a 6-point home dog, and 78-74, as a 13-point road underdog. But those two upsets set today's play up, as Richmond falls into a revenge system of mine which is 50-22 ATS since 1990. That angle plays on certain teams with double-revenge, if they are off a SU loss. Even better: Richmond has cashed 64.7% over the past 25 years when playing with double revenge, and favored off a SU loss. Take the Spiders. |

01-21-17 | Pepperdine +23 v. St. Mary's | Top | 65-85 | Win | 100 | 18 h 5 m | Show |
At 11 pm, our selection is on the Pepperdine Waves + the points over St. Mary's. We played against St. Mary's on Thursday, and got the $$$ with Pacific, which covered as a 23-point underdog. Tonight, St. Mary's is laying another big number, but it's a horrid 0-for-13 ATS when laying 21+ points since 2010. Additionally, Pepperdine falls into a system of mine which is 431-272 ATS since 1990. Take Pepperdine. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

01-21-17 | Rockets -1 v. Grizzlies | Top | 119-95 | Win | 100 | 15 h 19 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets over the Memphis Grizzlies. Houston lost earlier this month, at home, to these Grizzlies. And that was the second straight defeat this season that Houston has suffered vs. Memphis. But I love Houston to avenge those losses tonight, as it falls into a 100-36 ATS 'revenge' system of mine. Moreover, off its loss last night to Golden State, Houston also falls into a 371-296 ATS angle, which plays on road teams off a SU/ATS loss against foes off a win, provided our road team isn't getting more than 6 points. Finally, the Grizzlies are an awful 15-36-1 ATS vs. foes with double-revenge, provided such foe isn't off back to back losses. Take Houston. NBA Payback Payday. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Portland +28.5 v. Gonzaga | Top | 52-73 | Win | 100 | 15 h 60 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Portland Pilots + the points over Gonzaga. The Bulldogs are 18-0, and have covered 11 straight games. Of course, such extreme success just results in the pointspread being raised. And we're at the point now where there's significant value to be had by betting against the Zags. So, we'll pull the trigger on Portland tonight, as the Pilots fall into 89-33, 22-1 and 116-46 ATS systems of mine. Additionally, the Zags have covered just 18 of 53 as double-digit favorites off a win by 25+ points, while undefeated teams with an 18-0 (or better) record have covered just 26 of 68 regular season games since 1990 when favored by 13+ points. Take Portland. NCAA Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Kings -113 v. Islanders | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -113 | 14 h 17 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm. our selection is on the Los Angeles Kings over the New York Islanders. If you were wondering what was keeping Islanders' coach Jack Capuano employed behind the bench after five-plus seasons - only two of which resulted in winning records - then wonder no more. The Isles fired Capuano and replaced him with first-time coach Doug Weight. The problem with the move isn't that Capuano was a particularly good coach, but rather that most people would agree that it was GM Garth Snow who had been ruining this franchise lately and not the man behind the bench. Of course, as is often the case, the Isles won the first game they played with Weight behind the bench - and they didn't just win it, but they shut out the Dallas Stars, 3-0. Weight and his team will try to make it three in a row tonight, but the task will likely get tougher against the Kings, who are 5-2 in their last seven games against teams from the Metropolitan division. The Kings are 20-8 in their last 28 games when playing on two days' rest and they are also 11-4 in the last 15 meetings with the Isles. Take Los Angeles. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Senators v. Maple Leafs -140 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -140 | 14 h 16 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Maple Leafs over the Ottawa Senators. The Leafs were on a three-game winning streak when they ran into a somewhat desperate Rangers team looking for some revenge on Thursday night, and suffered a 5-2 loss in New York. They're back home tonight facing one of their Canadian neighbors in the Senators. Ottawa is on a two game winning streak (and four of the last five) and has been playing very well of late. But the 'Nats are without their #1 goalie, veteran Craig Anderson, who is with his wife while she undergoes cancer treatment and he likely won't be back with the team until late in January at the earliest. That means that 2nd year net-minder Mike Condon is shouldering the load during Anderson's absence. And Condon has played very well, but he's also been between the pipes in 17 straight complete games (he's appeared in 20 in a row going back to December 1). That's a lot for any goaltender, let alone someone who has been in the league less than two seasons. The Senators simply have no choice at this point, but eventually, the workload will catch up to the 26-year-old from Massachusetts. The Senators are 2-6 in the last eight meetings in Toronto. Take the Leafs. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Toledo v. Kent State -1.5 | Top | 61-85 | Win | 100 | 14 h 7 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Kent State Golden Flashes over Toledo. The Golden Flashes have dropped four straight games, while Toledo's off an 85-73 win over Bowling Green. But we'll take Kent St. tonight, as it falls into a super 27-2 ATS angle. Since 1991, the Golden Flashes are 27-2 ATS at home in conference play off a SU loss, if their opponent is off a win, and Kent St. is priced from +1 to -10 points. Even better: if Kent is playing with revenge, then our 27-2 stat zooms to a perfect 15-0 ATS. With Kent, indeed, playing with revenge from a loss suffered to Toledo last February, we'll take Kent State this evening. MAC Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | North Texas +17 v. Louisiana Tech | Top | 57-81 | Loss | -115 | 14 h 5 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the North Texas Mean Green + the points over Louisiana Tech. North Texas has lost its last seven games to fall to 6-12 on the season. But its losing streak has triggered a 175-82 ATS system of mine. Meanwhile, the Bulldogs are 13-6, and have won their last three games, including a double-digit home win vs. Rice on Thursday. Unfortunately for Louisiana Tech, it's a dismal 4-18 ATS off 3+ wins. Take North Texas. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Louisiana-Monroe +14 v. Texas-Arlington | Top | 55-71 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 35 m | Show |
At 5:30 pm, our selection is on the Louisiana Monroe Warhawks + the points over Texas Arlington. These two teams met three times last season, with Monroe sweeping the series, 3-0, and it won each game outright as an underdog. Overall, Monroe's 14-5 its last 19 meetings vs. the Mavericks. Even better: the Warhawks are 18-5 ATS off 4+ losses, if they're playing an opponent off a win. With Monroe in off 5 straight defeats, and UT-Arlington in off a win at South Alabama, we'll grab the double-digits today with the Warhawks. |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Blues v. Jets UNDER 5.5 | Top | 3-5 | Loss | -117 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
At 3:05 pm, our selection is on the 'under' in the St. Louis/Winnipeg game. The Jets exploded for 6 goals on Wednesday, in a 6-3 home win vs. Arizona. But I look for a much lower-scoring game this afternoon, as the Jets have gone 'under' in 21 of 30 at home if they scored more than three goals in their previous game (including 6-0 'under' if they scored more than five goals in their previous game). Winnipeg's also gone 'under' in 11 of 14 games vs. division rivals, including a 3-2 win over these Blues last month. Take the 'under.' |
|||||||
01-21-17 | Georgia v. Texas A&M -3.5 | Top | 62-63 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 8 m | Show |
At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Texas A&M Aggies over Georgia. Texas A&M lost its last game, 62-60, to Arkansas, while Georgia is off a 76-68 victory over Vanderbilt. For the season, A&M is 9-8, while the Bulldogs are 12-6. We'll lay the points with Texas A&M, as it is 49-12 ATS at home or on a neutral court, if it is off a loss and owns a .440 (or better) record, provided its foe is not off a SU/ATS loss. Take the Aggies. High Noon Hanging. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-20-17 | Canadiens -116 v. Devils | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 52 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Montreal Canadiens over the New Jersey Devils. After losing three straight at home, the Devils may not have felt all that confident as they got ready to embark on a four game, western road swing that would take them from Edmonton to Calgary to Vancouver to Minnesota. But after losing the first of those to the Oilers, New Jersey has reeled off three in a row, culminating with a tough 4-3 victory against the Wild on Tuesday. Now they come back home to play the Canadiens with perhaps a little extra confidence to boost them. But this is still a pretty bad team, despite the fact that they have a winning record here at the Prudential Center this year (10-9). The Habs come in having lost to the defending Stanley Cup Champion Penguins in their last game (their second loss in a row), and there's certainly not a lot of shame in that these days. You may think the fact that Carey Price will not be in net for the Canadiens tonight (he's been given the night off) is a bad thing for them, but veteran back-up Al Montoya is no slouch and he has more games against the Devils than he has against any other team in the league. And Montoya holds a stellar .938 saves pct. and 1.55 GAA in those 10 contests against New Jersey. The Habs are 8-3 in their last 11 meetings in New Jersey. Take Montreal. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-20-17 | Blazers v. 76ers | Top | 92-93 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 24 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Portland Trail Blazers over the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers come into tonight's game off back to back upset wins -- at Milwaukee, and at home vs. Toronto -- while the Blazers have dropped their last three games, both SU and ATS. But we'll take the Trail Blazers to snap Philly's 2-game win streak, as road teams off a SU/ATS loss are 123-68 ATS in the regular season vs. .400 (or worse) foes off a win, if our road team wasn't getting more than six points. Additionally, home underdogs off back to back upset wins have cashed just 37.2% over the past 27 years vs. losing teams. Take Portland. NBA Road Warrior Winner. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-20-17 | Red Wings v. Sabres -121 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 19 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Buffalo Sabres over Detroit. The Red Wings come into tonight's game on a 3-game win streak. But all three of those victories came at home. Away from Joe Louis Arena, Detroit has lost its last three (by a combined score of 15-8). Meanwhile, Buffalo has won its last three home games (by a combined score of 12-5). With Detroit a poor 23-29 (minus 21 games on the moneyline) off 3+ home wins, and 5-14 off an overtime win, we'll back the homestanding Sabres on Friday night. Take Buffalo. |
|||||||
01-20-17 | Blackhawks v. Bruins -139 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -139 | 16 h 19 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Boston Bruins over the Chicago Blackhawks. The Bruins dropped a heartbreaker on Wednesday, 6-5, at Detroit. Boston actually led that game 4-1 after the first period, but Detroit stormed back to tie the game in the final minutes of regulation. And, then, the Red Wings won the shootout to earn the 2 points. I look for Boston to bounce back, at home, tonight, as it is 23-8 its last 31 off a loss by 1 goal, and 6-3 this season off back to back losses. Take Boston. |
|||||||
01-19-17 | Pacific +22.5 v. St. Mary's | Top | 50-62 | Win | 100 | 20 h 58 m | Show |
At 11 pm, our selection is on the Pacific Tigers + the points over St. Mary's. St. Mary's will try to bounce back off its 23-point loss to Gonzaga last week. It very likely will win the game -- it's been installed as a huge favorite, after all -- but it likely will fall short at the betting window. We'll grab the points with the Tigers, as Pacific falls into a great 367-231 ATS system of mine, which plays on certain road teams vs. superior foes, while St Mary's falls into a negative 51-114 ATS system, based on it being a double-digit home favorite off a loss. Also, St. Mary's is a dreadful 4-17 ATS at home in conference play off a loss by more than 8 points. Take Pacific. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-19-17 | Wolves +2.5 v. Clippers | Top | 104-101 | Win | 100 | 20 h 32 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Timberwolves + the points over the Los Angeles Clippers. We played on the Clippers on Monday, and were rewarded with a 120-98 blowout of the Thunder. That was L.A.'s 7th straight win, overall. But the Clippers suffered a big blow in that game when star PG Chris Paul sprained his thumb. He'll be sidelined upwards of two months, so Los Angeles will be without its floor leader tonight. We'll grab the points with Minnesota, as it is playing with revenge from a 14-point loss earlier this season to the Clippers. And revenge-minded teams that lost earlier in the year to their opponent have covered 58% this season (82-60 ATS), if they also lost their previous game SU. Even better: NBA teams (like LA) off back to back wins are a poor 32-58 ATS if they scored 117+ in their last game, and their opponent is off a loss. Take Minnesota. NBA Underdog of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-19-17 | Clemson +7.5 v. Louisville | Top | 60-92 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 49 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Clemson Tigers + the points over Louisville. The Tigers have lost the last four games -- both straight-up and ATS. But I look for them to bounce back tonight. Prior to this 4-game skid, the Tigers had won nine straight (and they had also covered their last four games of that nine-game win streak). But even though the Tigers are 0-4 ATS in their last four, three of the four ATS losses have been narrow defeats. Clemson lost by 3 as a 2.5-point underdog to North Carolina on Jan. 3. Then, four days later, it fell by five at Notre Dame, as a 4-point underdog. Finally, in its most recent game, it lost by just four points to Virginia, as a 1.5-point underdog. With Clemson 68-44 ATS off back to back losses, and 10-2 ATS off 4+ ATS losses, we'll grab the points with the Tigers tonight. |
|||||||
01-19-17 | Maryland v. Iowa -1 | Top | 84-76 | Loss | -115 | 16 h 1 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Iowa Hawkeyes minus the points over Maryland. The Terrapins have won their last three games -- all as an underdog -- and are now 16-2 on the season. But they've been installed as an underdog tonight at Carver Hawkeye Arena vs. the 11-8 Hawkeyes. We'll lay the points with Iowa, as Maryland falls into a negative 48-80 ATS system of mine which fades certain road teams off 3+ upset wins. Moreover, Iowa falls into a 91-45 ATS system of mine which plays on certain inferior teams favored over superior foes. Iowa is a super 12-1 ATS at home vs. foes off back to back SU/ATS wins. And the Hawkeyes are also a terrific 15-7 ATS at home vs. Big 10 Conference foes when priced as a favorite of -3 points or less, including a perfect 7-0 ATS if they're off a loss, and their opponent is off a SU win. Take Iowa. Big 10 Game of the Week. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-19-17 | Connecticut +9.5 v. SMU | Top | 49-69 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 59 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Connecticut Huskies + the points over SMU. UConn will try to hand SMU its first defeat at home this season. The Mustangs are a perfect 11-0 SU and 5-1 ATS in front of their home faithful But SMU is a poor 45-67 ATS at home off a win. And UConn is a solid 33-13 ATS as an underdog off a pointspread win. Take Connecticut. |
|||||||
01-18-17 | Sharks v. Kings -120 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -120 | 10 h 26 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Kings over San Jose. The Kings lost their last game, here at home, to the Tampa Bay Lightning, 2-1. That dropped the Kings' record on home ice to 14-8. But Anze Kopitar didn't play in that game, as he had the flu (he'll be back on the ice tonight, though). The Kings are 24-16 off a home loss, including 5-2 this season. Take Los Angeles. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-18-17 | Bruins -138 v. Red Wings | Top | 5-6 | Loss | -138 | 8 h 51 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Boston Bruins over the Detroit Red Wings. The Detroit Red Wings barely kept their post-season streak alive last April when they snuck into the NHL Playoffs at the last minute, despite only their third non-winning season since 1998 (they finished at 41-41). But unless something dramatic happens in the second half, it appears the Wings streak will end this season. That's because the normally dominant team from Detroit has just 19 wins in 44 game heading into tonight's showdown with the Bruins. And despite the usual boost the Red Wings get from playing in their home arena, Joe Louis hasn't been a good place for them this season, as they have only nine wins here (in 22 games) vs. 10 on the road. The Bruins have completely dominated this series lately, taking 12 of the last 14 meetings and four of the last five here in Detroit. The Red Wings are 1-5 in their last six games following a victory (they beat Montreal 1-0 on Monday). Take Boston. |
|||||||
01-18-17 | Penguins v. Canadiens -110 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Montreal Canadiens over the Pittsburgh Penguins. We played on the Pens two nights ago, and were rewarded with a thrilling 8-7 win over the Capitals, in what surely was the best game of the season-to-date. But Pittsburgh's a poor 17-20 (minus 14 games on the moneyline) following a home win in which it scored more than 3 goals. And it's 7-14 (minus 12 games on the moneyline) following a game in which it scored more than 5 goals. On the road, the defending champs have been woeful this season (8-12), while the Canadiens have been stellar at home (16-6). Take Montreal. |
|||||||
01-18-17 | Tulane +12.5 v. Tulsa | Top | 82-89 | Win | 100 | 15 h 1 m | Show |
At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Tulane Green Wave + the points over Tulsa. The Golden Hurricane come into this game off back to back upset wins. Last Wednesday, they stunned Memphis, 81-71, as a 4.5-point home dog. And then, last Saturday, they pulled an upset at Temple, 70-68, as a 6.5-point underdog. For tonight's game, however, they're laying points, and double-digits, at that. And Tulsa falls into a negative 114-217 ATS system of mine which fades certain .417 (or better) double-digit favorites off upset road wins. Moreover, Tulane is a super 27-15 ATS away from home vs. conference foes off an upset win. Finally, this series has been dominated by the road team, which is 13-3-1 ATS, including 8-1, 89% ATS as an underdog of +5 or more points. Take Tulane. AAC Conference Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-18-17 | St. Joe's +6 v. Massachusetts | Top | 57-62 | Win | 100 | 14 h 29 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the St Josephs Hawks + the points over Massachusetts. The Hawks will be in an ornery mood, as they lost both games on their 2-game home stand last week. And they were favored in each game. But I love them to bounce back tonight, as they fall into a super 310-182 ATS system of mine which plays on certain road teams off losses. Even better: St. Joes has dominated this rivalry, with five straight wins (4-1 ATS). And the Hawks have covered six straight as single-digit conference underdogs (or PK) away from home. Take St. Josephs. Atlantic 10 Game of the Month. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Lightning v. Ducks -170 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 25 m | Show |
At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Anaheim Ducks over Tampa Bay. The Lightning had to play last night. The good news is that they won, 2-1, against Los Angeles. The bad news is that they are 10-25 when playing without rest the past three years. Yikes! They're also 2-10 on the road when the o/u line is 5 goals or less, and 7-13 this season off a win. Meanwhile, the Ducks lost 2-1 to St. Louis, here at home, on Sunday night. But the Ducks are 30-18 off a game in which they didn't score 2 goals. Take Anaheim. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Predators v. Canucks OVER 5 | Top | 0-1 | Loss | -120 | 9 h 24 m | Show |
At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the 'over' in the Nashville/Vancouver game. The Predators have gone 'over' in 6 of 9 road games this season (and 31 of 54 the past three seasons) when the total was 5 goals or less. Similarly, at home, Vancouver has gone 'over' the total in 27 of 45 games the past three years (as well as 135 of the last 234) when the o/u line was 5 goals or less. Moreover, Nashville's on a 3-game win streak following victories over these Canucks (2-1), Boston (2-1) and Colorado (3-2). But the Preds have gone 'over' in 17 of 26 after not allowing 3+ goals in any of their three previous games. Take the 'over.' Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Panthers v. Flames -133 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 34 m | Show |
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Calgary Flames over the Florida Panthers. The Panthers gave their head coach a two-year extension last January and he finished the season with a winning record (47-35) and had a winning record through the first 21 games of this season. But for some strange reason, that wasn't enough for Gerard Gallant to keep his job and in late November Gallant was relieved of his duties behind the bench in South Florida. It was a curious move by a team looking for consistency, and normally when a team like the Panthers makes the General Manager the skipper of the team, it's likely not going to produce positive results. That's certainly been the case since the Panthers handed the coaching duties over to GM Tom Rowe after the firing of Gallant as the Panthers have gone 9-15 since Rowe has taken over. It doesn't help their chances tonight that the Panthers are hurting right now, with three of their center icemen likely out for this games (Aleksander Barkov, Nick Bjugstad, Greg McKegg). The Flames are 4-2 in the last six meetings and 5-0 in their last five games when playing on two days rest. Take Calgary. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Texas +14 v. Baylor | Top | 64-74 | Win | 100 | 14 h 34 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Texas Longhorns + the points over Baylor. We played against the Bears last week, when they were an underdog vs. WVU, and they lost their first game of the season, 89-68, to fall to 16-1. They bounced back nicely with an upset win on Saturday at Kansas State, 77-68. But off that upset win, we will fade the Bears on Tuesday. And that's because .910 (or better) teams off a road upset win are 0-14 ATS since 1999 (at Game 7 forward) if they're playing at home against a foe which has a much worse win percentage (at least .500 less). Take Texas + the points. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Bowling Green v. Toledo -8.5 | Top | 73-85 | Win | 100 | 14 h 33 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Toledo Rockets minus the points over Bowling Green. The Rockets come into this game off back to back upset losses on the road. But they're back home tonight, and they've won seven of eight home games on the season (with their only loss by a mere point to Green Bay). We'll lay the lumber with Toledo, as home favorites of -5+ points have cashed 65% since 1997 off back to back upset losses, if their opponent is also off a SU/ATS loss (which Bowling Green is). Take the Rockets. |
|||||||
01-17-17 | Arkansas v. Texas A&M -4 | Top | 62-60 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 33 m | Show |
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Texas A&M Aggies minus the points over Arkansas. Historically, the Razorbacks have been a dreadful traveler. And especially on the road vs. conference foes with a win percentage less than .750. Since 2001, in that role, the Razorbacks are an awful 30-83 SU and 35-77-1 ATS. We'll take Texas A&M tonight to bounce back off its 8-point loss to Miss State, as the Aggies are a fantastic 49-11 ATS at home (or on a neutral court), off a loss, if they owned a .500 or better record, and their opponent wasn't off a SU/ATS loss. Take Texas A&M. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-16-17 | Thunder v. Clippers -7.5 | Top | 98-120 | Win | 100 | 11 h 0 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Clippers minus the points over Oklahoma City. These two teams met on New Year's Eve, and the Clippers were blasted, 114-88, by the Thunder. But I love Los Angeles to avenge that defeat, as .575 (or better) teams, playing with revenge from a loss by 25+ points, are a super 66% ATS at home in the regular season since 1990 against foes off a win, including a perfect 3-0 ATS already this season. Los Angeles is on a 6-0 SU and 5-1 ATS run since the calendar turned on January 1. And it's 17-5 ATS its last 22 when playing with same-season revenge in the regular season (including a perfect 6-0 ATS when priced from -5 to -10 points). Take the Clippers. NBA Payback Payday. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
01-16-17 | Cavs v. Warriors -7.5 | Top | 91-126 | Win | 100 | 14 h 5 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Warriors lost a heartbreaker in Cleveland on Christmas Day, and will look to avenge that defeat tonight. I love Steve Kerr's team to get its revenge, as it's a fantastic 11-2 ATS vs. 376 (or better) teams when playing with revenge, including a perfect 7-0 ATS when its opponent was off a win. Take Golden State. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
