La.-Monroe -6.5
With Troy on the road tonight i think the road woes continue here for the Trojans. One win this year on the road Vs. a bad Nichols St team and by just 1 point tells me this team is not ready to take on UL Monroe tonight. This is a back to back road effort here for the Trojans as well. UL Monroe will be able to lock down this poor passing attack of Troy and set the defense up and i think that will force Troy to take some bad shots. To go along with that Monroe is a very good rebounding team and Troy is just very poor. Monroe is also coming off back to back road wins. This has to give this team an added boost as well. Monroe hangs in the balance for the Sunbelt overall lead and a big win here would be a big help before they showdown with UL Laf early next week. I like the fact we lay under 7 here and i think Monroe gets a very comvincing win by double digits tonight.
Nebraska +15
A low-scoring game is projected here, which means the underdog should be more live than usual especially since that 'dog - Nebraska - gives up less than 61 points a game ranking 51st in the nation in defense. According to KenPom.com, Nebraska is first in the Big Ten in adjusted defensive efficiency
The Cornhuskers are coming on with the return of Moses Abraham and Leslee Smith back in their rotation. They also have the Big Ten's No. 2 scorer in Terran Petteway.
Wisconsin gets back Frank Kaminsky, but will be without injured point guard Traveon Jackson, who has made 84 career starts for Wisconsin.
The Badgers are overrated here because of how close they came to reaching the NCAA championship game last year. But the Badgers don't win by talent. It's more about execution and chemistry with them. And that balance has been disrupted. They are going to struggle here against a defensive-minded Nebraska team without their point guard while hurting from lack of guard depth.
Cincinnati vs Memphis
Pick: Cincinnati +1
While we get that the Memphis Tigers are home hosting the Cincinnati Bearcats, we feel this is good value for a Cincinnati club that we feel is the clearly better team. But do not take our word on that, but rather consider Cincinnati is ranked 35th in the country on the Pomeroy Ratings overall despite having four losses while the 9-6 Tigers are ranked just 83rd. All four of Cincinnati?s losses have come to Pomeroy Top 100 teams while the Bearcats have already beaten the likes of San Diego State, NC State and SMU, thanks to a defense ranked 14th in the land in efficiency and 17th in effective field goal percentage allowed. Meanwhile Memphis?s best win was vs. 98th ranked North Carolina Central and it has lost at home to the likes of Stephen F. Austin and Tulane. Memphis is 1-6 ATS its last seven games vs. teams with a winning percentage above .600.
BYU vs. Pacific
Play: BYU -9
Huge mismatch here as BYU heads to take on Pacific this evening. We?ve cashed a couple of tickets with BYU already, and I expect another easy winner here tonight. This game has blowout written all over it. The Cougars have one 4 of their last 5 games and that one loss came to Pepperdine. BYU didn?t take the Waves as seriously as they should have and dropped a conference game at home because of it. They won?t be overlooking any teams for a while after that and Pacific isn?t close to having the personnel to hang around here. The Cougars are one of the top scoring teams in the country at 83.8 points per game and Tyler Haws has been a monster, putting up over 22 points per night. BYU gets the job done by shooting 3?s, and they can really put up points in a hurry. They?re going to take the crowd out of the game and run up and down the floor. They?re also undefeated on the road this season and Pacific isn?t exactly a tough venue to play at. The Tigers are slumping right now and it?s a bad time to not be on your game. They?ve lost 4 of their last 5 and are only putting up 65.8 points per contest. That alone is a huge discrepancy and might just be the deciding factor for the spread. It?s likely that Pacific will give up when things start to go south for them. They?re also not a particularly deep team, so stamina could be an issue with how much BYU is going to run. Blowout all the way here.
Nebraska +16
Looking at the Big 10 tonight, and gonna try Nebraska +16 points over Wisconsin. There is NO doubt that Wisky is gonna get the win on its home floor, but the Cornhuskers can keep this under double digits. They come to Madison with a decent 10-6 record, nothing like the Badgers 15-2 mark, but lets look at their losses. Nebraska lost at Rhode Island by 4, home to Creighton by 10, home to Incarnate Word by 1 (Incarnate is a school in San Antonio,Texas if you're interested), at Hawaii by 8, home to Indiana by 5 and at Iowa by 11. Last season, the 'Huskers BEAT Wisconsin in Lincoln, 77-68, so they will not be in awe. This big fat spread looks very tasty, and since Wisky has covered only one of its last five, gimme half a Benjamin on Nebraska.
Vancouver -? +122 over PHILADELPHIA
Regulation only. Extremely difficult assignment for the Flyers here. Philadelphia played in Washington last night and lost 1-0 after firing away just 21 shots on net. The Flyers have registered 25 shots on net or fewer in three straight and in five of its past seven games. The Flyers will now play their third game in four days and tail end of back-to-backs. Playing on zero rest, Philadelphia is 1-6 this season with five of those losses occurring in regulation. They are also forced to use Ray Emery after rookie call-up Rob Zepp played last night. Emery?s save percentage in his last two starts was .769 and .700 respectively. In his 15 appearances this season, Emery has posted a save percentage of .880 or less in eight of them. There?s a reason that Emery has been on five different teams since 2008 and it?s not because he?s good. Right now, he looks slower and older than ever.
Vancouver has dropped three straight to Florida, Calgary and Nashville, however, they outshot all three. That tells us they are on the verge of snapping out of this modest funk. The Canucks also own a better on the road than they do at home. Vancouver played on Tuesday and playing on one day rest they have compiled a 14-7 record. Prior to those three aforementioned losses, the Canucks defeated Detroit and the Islanders in back-to-back games and they now take a significant drop in class here. It wouldn't surprise us if the Canucks looked sharp and the Flyers dull over the entire 60 minutes. Vancouver can play tremendous hockey once it gets cranked up and the goaltending mismatch in our favor serves as the icing on the cake.
Jets / Stars Over 5.5
The Jets have found a new style of offense the last few games. They have been scoring and attacking more than ever. The defense is the same for the most part and i expect this game to go well over the total of 5.5 tonight. Dallas is one of the better teams to score the puck and we get Lehtonen in net tonight for the Stars. He has lost 3 straight and i wonder how he will handle this pressure from Winnepeg tonight. I think he will give up his fair share of goals tonight. I can see this one being a back and forth offensive show tonight. The Jets will go with Hutchinson in net tonight he has performed well over his last few starts, but i think this road game in Dallas will prove he isn't in top form right now. I expect a large number of shots tonight in this one. Both avg around 30 shots per game. I think we exceed that on both ends. I really think the power play will be in full effect tonight as well. I will be shocked if this one isn't over the total before the 3rd period...I can see a 5-4 final in this one.
