At 4:30 pm, in a game played in Las Vegas, in the Resorts World Classic, our selection is on the Lehigh Mountain Hawks + the points over Cal Santa Barbara. Lehigh has generally been solid as a big underdog, as it's 31-16 ATS when getting more than 7 points, including 16-5 ATS off a loss. UCSB, on the other hand, is 23-41-2 ATS its last 65, including 14-28-1 ATS as a favorite. Take Lehigh + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 4:05 pm,
our selection is on the New York Islanders over the Philadelphia
Flyers. The Islanders must have felt pretty good about returning from a
seven-game road trip having gone 6-1 and knowing that they were looking
at the next seven games at their beautiful (new) home arena. But this
extended homestand is not off to a good start with the Isles going 1-2
over the first three games here at UBS Arena. How they lost the last
one is quite a mystery as New York out-shot Boston here on Wednesday by
an incredibly lopsided 45-14 but still managed to drop a 3-1 decision to
the Bruins. They'll regroup against the Flyers this afternoon on this
Black Friday that has all but two NHL teams on the schedule. This is a
revenge game for the Isles who lost by 4-3 in a shootout in the only
previous meeting so far this season (the Flyers also beat the Isles by
the exact same score in a shootout in their last meeting of last
season). New York is 9-3 this season when playing against teams with
winning records (4-1 at home in those situations). Take the Islanders.
As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 3:30 pm, our selection is on the North Texas/Temple game to go UNDER the total. These two teams met each of the two previous seasons, and both games went UNDER the total including last year's 24-17 game, which went under the total of 63 by 22 points. This year's line is even higher than last season's, and Temple is 10-3-1 UNDER the total when the O/U line is 62+ points. Additionally, the UNDER falls into a 94-59-2 Totals system of mine. Take the UNDER. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 3:30 pm, our selection is on the North Texas Mean Green minus the points over Temple. North Texas has won and covered 5 straight games heading into this season finale, while the Owls have lost their last three games. The Mean Green have racked up 53 and 56 points in their previous two games, so I won't step in front of this freight train. Indeed, teams playing their final home game of the season, off back to back SU/ATS wins in which they scored 50+ points, have covered 68.1% since 1980. Lay the wood. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Memphis/Navy game. The Tigers have played 4 straight Overs coming into this game, while Navy checks in off back-to-back Overs. The knee-jerk reaction might be to look for a high-scoring game here. But consider that NCAA Football teams off exactly 4 Overs have gone 122-85 UNDER the total when the O/U line was 57+ points. That bodes well for the Under. As does the fact that this game falls into an 89-55 Totals system of mine. Take the Midshipmen and Tigers Under the total. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 5:30 pm, our selection is on the South Florida Bulls minus the points over Western Kentucky. This game is being played in Nassau, Bahamas, as part of the Battle 4 Atlantis Tournament. The Bulls come into this game off back-to-back SU/ATS losses to Oklahoma St. and VCU, and are 3-3 on the season. We'll take South Florida to bounce back, as it's cashed 62% in non-conference games since 1990 off 2 SU/ATS losses. Additionally, South Florida falls into a 96-45 ATS system of mine which plays on certain favorites off a SU loss. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
| 11/27/2025 - College Basketball | WINNER |
At 12 Noon, our selection is on the East Carolina Pirates + the points over St. Bonaventure. This game is in Fort Myers, Florida, as part of the Fort Myers Tip-Off Tournament. St. Bonaventure comes into this game off a 15-point loss to North Carolina, and has been installed as a double-digit favorite this afternoon. But it's been atrocious in this price range, as it's 27-57-2 ATS when priced from -8.5 to -12 points, including 8-30 ATS if the Bonnies were off a SU loss. The Pirates, meanwhile, were blown out by 33 points on Tuesday by Tom Izzo's Spartans, and are winless ATS thus far. But underdogs off a loss by 33+ points have gone 98-73 ATS if they were 0-2 (or worse) ATS on the season. Take East Carolina + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
| 11/26/2025 - College Basketball | WINNER |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Tigers minus the points over Southern Illinois. The Tigers were 29-6 last season, but have stumbled out of the gate with a 1-4 record this year. They're back at home tonight, and will host a Salukis squad which is 3-3. Memphis is a solid 13-3 ATS in non-conference games off back to back losses. And it also falls into a 90-44 ATS system of mine which plays on certain favorites off SU losses. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
| 11/26/2025 - NHL | LOSER |
At 7:05 pm,
our selection is on the Carolina Hurricanes over the New York Rangers.
It’s easy to forget just how quickly the Rangers crumbled from top-tier
Stanley Cup contender to a non-playoff team hosting a fire sale.
Beginning last season, they were the reigning Presidents’ Trophy
winners, fresh off an Eastern Conference Final berth. Led by Artemi
Panarin (120 points), New York had an offense that seemed to have no
bounds. But a disastrous five-game stretch a year ago was the beginning
of the end and GM Chris Drury decided it was time to pull the plug and
start dismantling. Now the Rangers are hoping that new head coach Mike
Sullivan can bring them back from the doldrums quickly, but that looks
like a pipe dream at this point and one has to wonder how much longer it
will be before Drury is gone. Things certainly don't get any easier
tonight as New York heads into Raleigh where the 'Canes are 6-2-1 on the
season. That's not surprising as this has been one of the toughest
places for visitors for years. Carolina is 5-0 in the last five
meetings. Take the Hurricanes. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

Our 3 selections include the Boston Celtics, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Milwaukee Bucks.<br><br>At 5:10 pm (note the early start time), our selection is on the Boston Celtics + the points over Detroit. The Pistons are firing on all cylinders, and enter the TD Garden on a 13-game win streak. These two teams met three days before Detroit's streak began, and the Pistons bested Boston that night, 119-113. We'll grab the points with the Celtics, who are 18-6 ATS when playing with revenge, while Detroit is 4-10 ATS its last 14 when playing a revenge-minded foe. Take Boston.<br><br>At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Timberwolves + the points over Oklahoma City. The T-Wolves play with revenge from last season's Playoff ouster. And Minnesota also checks in off an overtime loss to the Sacramento Kings. The Wolves should be ultra-focused tonight, and we'll grab the points, noting that road underdogs off a SU/ATS loss have cashed 64% when playing with revenge from a playoff defeat. Take Minnesota.<br><br>At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Milwaukee Bucks + the points over Miami. The Heat have won 5 straight, while the Bucks have dropped 5 straight. We'll take the underdog Bucks, as Miami is a nasty 38-62 ATS off a SU win if its opponent was off a SU loss. The Bucks also fall into a 250-157 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams on long losing streaks. Take Milwaukee. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
