At 1 pm, our selection is on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights + the points over Tennessee.  The Scarlet Knights were upset by Central Connecticut St., 67-54, as a 15.5-point favorite on Friday.  We'll grab the points with Rutgers in this game being played as part of the Players Era Championship in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Rutgers has cashed 68% since 1990 as a double-digit underdog in non-conference games.  And it's also 12-1-2 ATS following a game where it failed to cover by 22+ points.  Take Rutgers.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs plus the points over Phoenix.  The Suns handed San Antone its first loss of the season three weeks ago.  We'll grab the points with the Spurs in this rematch, as they're 77-43-4 ATS when they owned a .395 (or better) win percentage, and were playing with revenge.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4:05 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Jets over the Minnesota Wild. Minnesota comes into this afternoon's match-up with Winnipeg riding a rare -- for them -- four-game win streak. Included in that streak was a 4-3 shootout victory over the Hurricanes and a 5-0 blanking of the Penguins which was Friday night at Pittsburgh (despite only managing 40 shots on goal in those two victories combined). Now the Wild travels from Western PA to Central Canada to take on a Jets club that is once again one of the best in the Western Conference. The Jets lost a tough one on Friday night to the 'Canes here at home and they look to bounce back from that against a team they've had a lot of success against recently. Despite its moderate success this season, Minnesota is just 2-5 in seven games as a road underdog. This has been one of the most lopsided series in recent NHL history with the Jets having won each of the last nine meetings going back to April 2023. Take Winnipeg. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics minus the points over Orlando.  The Celtics were upset by the Nets, 113-105, on Friday.  Boston usually bounces back from upset losses to division rivals, and especially if the Celts were favored by at least 4 points in that defeat.  In that situation, Boston has covered the point spread 39 of 51 in the game following the upset loss.  Look for the Celtics to blow out Orlando.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
 
11/23/2025 - NFLWINNER
At 4:25 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Cowboys + the points over the Philadelphia Eagles.  These two teams met in Week 1, and the Eagles defeated Dallas, 24-20.  We'll play against Philly in this re-match, as defending Super Bowl champs are a soft 41-56-4 ATS when playing a revenge-minded division foe it defeated in the season's first meeting.  Moreover, in NFC East division games, underdogs with a losing record have gone 92-65 ATS vs. foes off a SU/ATS win.  Take the Cowboys.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
 
11/23/2025 - NFLLOSER
At 4:05 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Arizona/Jacksonville game.  The Cardinals have played back-to-back high scoring games.  They lost to the 49ers last week, 41-22, and the previous game was a 44-22 defeat at Seattle.  We'll take the UNDER, as teams have gone Under 59.3% after back-to-back games that totaled 63+ points, including 63.6% if the O/U line was 48 points or less.  Take the UNDER.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
 
11/23/2025 - NFLLOSER
At 4:05 pm, our selection is on the Arizona Cardinals + the points over Jacksonville.  The Jaguars pulled off an upset win last week when they blew out the Chargers, 35-6.  We'll fade the Jaguars on the road today, as favorites -5 (or less) points are 0-11 ATS following an upset win by more than 28 points.  Additionally, the Cardinals are 37-12 ATS at home off back to back losses when playing an opponent off an ATS win.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

Our 5 selections include Canisius, Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Longwood, Illinois State, and Western Illinois.<br><br>At 1 pm, our selection is on the Canisius Griffins minus the points over Binghamton.  The Bearkats have been installed as an underdog this afternoon, and they fall into a negative 27-77 ATS system of mine.  Lay the points with Canisius.<br><br>At 1 pm, our selection is on the Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions + the points over Miami-Ohio.  The Golden Lions will be looking to bounce back from two blowout losses to SMU (106-60) and Marshall (98-70).  We'll grab the big number vs. Miami, as Mid-American Conference teams are a woeful 26-53 ATS when favored by more than 16 points, including 2-14 ATS when playing an opponent off back to back ATS losses.  Take Pine Bluff.<br><br>At 2 pm, our selection is on the Longwood Lancers plus the points over Columbia.  Longwood was stunned, 83-82, as a 17.5-point favorite by Maryland-Eastern Shore this past Tuesday.  We'll take the Lancers to rebound off that debacle, as they've cashed 73% after failing to cover the spread by more than 12 points.  Take Longwood.<br><br>At 5 pm, our selection is on the Illinois State Redbirds minus the points over Coastal Carolina.  The Chanticleers are on a 2-game SU/ATS win streak.  But they're a poor 2-23 SU and 7-17-1 ATS as an underdog of +1.5 (or more) points off back to back ATS wins.  Coastal Carolina falls into negative 35-82 and 80-123 ATS systems of mine.  Take the Redbirds.<br><br>At 7 pm, our selection is on the Western Illinois Leathernecks over North Dakota.  The Leathernecks dropped an 84-64 decision to Coastal Carolina on Friday.  But Western Illinois has won the last 5 meetings vs. the Fighting Hawks, and we'll look for that dominance to continue this evening.  North Dakota is a dismal 13-24 ATS vs. foes off a loss by more than 8 points.  And the Ohio Valley Conference has cashed 64% at home vs. Summit League foes.  Take Western Illinois.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

Our 5 selections include the Cincinnati Bengals, Tennessee Titans, Kansas City Chiefs, the UNDER in the Cincinnati/New England game, and the UNDER in the Tampa Bay/Los Angeles game.<br><br>At 1 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Bengals + the points over New England.  Cincinnati is a solid 51-29-1 ATS when priced from +2.5 to +10 points, including 11-1 ATS its last 12 when playing a non-division foe off a SU win.  It's true that the Patriots are 5-0 SU on the road this season.  But those five wins have been by 6, 3, 6, 18, and 5 points.  And their only win by more than 6 points came against (arguably) the worst team in the League (Tennessee).  Take Cincy + the points.<br><br>At 1 pm, our selection is on the Tennessee Titans + the points over Seattle.  The Titans are catching double-digits at home this afternoon.  Long-term, double-digit home dogs have gone 131-102-2 ATS since 1980, including 76-48-2 ATS in non-division games.  We'll take the Titans + the points.<br><br>At 1 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Cincinnati/New England game.  The Bengals are allowing 33.4 ppg this season.  We'll look for this game to go UNDER the total, as teams with poor defenses that allow 33.4+ ppg have gone 45-25 UNDER in non-division games.  And the UNDER also falls into a 313-227 Totals system of mine.  Take the UNDER.<br><br>At 1:00 pm, our selection is on the Kansas City Chiefs minus the points over Indianapolis.  The Colts have the league's #1 offense, as they average 32.1 ppg.  The Chiefs rank #9, and score 6.7 ppg less than the Colts.  But Andy Reid's Chiefs have dominated opponents with superior offenses, as KC has gone 19-2-1 ATS vs. foes that score at least 4.9 ppg more than the Chiefs (including 9-0-1 ATS as a favorite).  Lay the points.<br><br>At 8:20 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Tampa Bay/Los Angeles game.  The Bucs have been installed as a big underdog tonight.  And when Tampa is a big dog, the games are generally lower-scoring, as Tampa's 19-7 UNDER when getting more than 6 points.  The UNDER falls into one of my favorite Totals systems which is 356-250-12 since 1980.  Take the UNDER.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:30 pm, our selection is on the San Jose St. Spartans + the points over San Diego St.  The Spartans played their worst game of the last 46 years (as far back as my database goes) when they were routed, 55-10, by Nevada, and failed to cover the minus 10-point spread by 55 points.  We'll grab the points with San Jose St. as teams that failed to cover the spread by more than 45 points are 12-0-1 ATS vs. foes off a SU win.  Meanwhile, the Aztecs have covered just 6 of 20 conference games when favored by more than 3 points vs. foes off an upset loss.  Take the Spartans + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
