Houston Rockets @ Toronto Raptors (TOR -1, 230) 7:30 PMDenver Nuggets @ New York Knicks (DEN -9.5, 202.5) 7:40 PM Clint Capela has 8 straight games with 19+ rebounds in which he has averaged 20.5 rpg. The Raptors rank last in the league in opponent rebounds per game. With his total set at 15.5, weContinue reading “NBA 12/5”

Virginia @ Purdue (PUR -2, 103.5) 7:15 PM No, you aren’t reading that incorrectly. Purdue is favored and the total is dangerously close to being under 100! The Cavaliers are 350th in possessions per game while the Boilermakers are 324th in possessions per game. The Cavaliers allow 40.3 ppg which ranks 1st while the BoilermakersContinue reading “College Basketball 12/4”

Brooklyn Nets @ Atlanta Hawks (BKN -3, 229) 7:40 PM With this total set at 229, we can assume at least one team will need to score at least 115 (at the minimum). The Nets have scored 115+ just once in their last 8 games averaging 105.3 ppg over that span. Defensively, they have allowedContinue reading “NBA 12/4”

Butler @ Ole Miss (OLEM -1, 130) 7 PM I think the wrong team is favored here. The Rebels have lost 2 of their last 3 games and trailed by 16 in at the half in the one game they did win. They have trailed by 16 points or more in each of those 3Continue reading “College Basketball 12/3”

Orlando Magic @ Washington Wizards (WAS -2, 227.5) 7:10 PM The last time these two teams played, the Magic came away with a 125-121 win in Orlando, their highest point total in any game this season. The Magic have only scored 98.3 ppg since then. Wizards games this season are usually high scoring. The WizardsContinue reading “NBA 12/3”

Chicago Bulls @ Sacramento Kings (SAC -5, 212) 10:10 PM I land shortly after 9 and there is only one game I could and will place a bet on in time for the night to close out. Luckily, there is some value here. The Kings have covered in 12 of their last 13 games. MeanwhileContinue reading “NBA 12/2”

New York Jets @ Cincinnati Bengals (NYJ -3, 42.5) 1 PM The Jets have scored 34 points in 3 straight weeks, an NFL first. While the Bengals defense has allowed 17 and 16 points in their last 2 weeks, they still allow 26.5 ppg which ranks 27th in the league. The over/under is 4-1 inContinue reading “NFL 12/1”

Indiana @ Purdue (IU -7, 56.5) 12 PM Before the injuries to starting quarterback Elijah Sindelar and star sophomore running back Rondale Moore, the Boilers were 1-3 ATS. However, since the new offense has taken over, the Boilers are 6-1 ATS. Vegas has severely undervalued this Purdue team and Jeff Brohm’s ability to coach. RivalryContinue reading “College Football 11/30”

Virginia Tech @ Virginia (VT -2.5, 48.5) 12 PM Let’s keep making money on the Hokies. They have covered in 5 straight and in 6 of their last 7. They have held their last four opponents to 9.5 ppg including 2 shutouts. Meanwhile, Virginia has won four of their last five. However, they are justContinue reading “College Football 11/29”

Chicago Bears @ Detroit Lions (CHI -5.5, 37) 12:30 PM David Blough gets the start on Thanksgiving. He threw for 271 yards, 2TDs and 2 INTs in the preseason and now gets to play Khalil Mack and this Bears defense. The Bears beat Driskell a few weeks back by 7 and should do worse damageContinue reading “NFL 11/28”
