Our 5 selections include Texas Tech, Rhode Island, Columbia, Merrimack and Air Force.<br><br>At 2 pm, our selection is on the Texas Tech Red Raiders + the points over Houston. The Cougars come into this game off SU/ATS wins over Baylor, West Virginia and Arizona State. We'll fade Houston, as the Red Raiders are a solid 48-32 ATS at home when they've owned a .789 (or better) win percentage, while Houston is a wallet-busting 24-38-2 ATS off 3 SU/ATS wins. Take Texas Tech.<br><br>At 2 pm, our selection is on the Rhode Island Rams + the points over George Mason. These two teams met 3 weeks ago, and the Patriots defeated the Rams, 61-50. The Patriots are currently riding a 9-game win streak, but fall into a negative 58-103 ATS system of mine which goes against certain teams on long win streaks that are playing a revenge-minded foe. Take Rhode Island.<br><br>At 2 pm, our selection is on the Columbia Lions minus the points over Dartmouth. The Lions enter this game off SU/ATS losses to Harvard, Brown and Yale. They'll look to snap their 3-game losing streak this afternoon, and they've covered 67% since 1990 as a favorite off 3 SU/ATS losses. Take Columbia.<br><br>at 3 pm, our selection is on the Merrimack Warriors over St. Peters. The Peacocks defeated Merrimack, 76-63, 13 days ago in Jersey City. We'll lay the points with Merrimack in this re-match, as Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference road teams have cashed just 35.5% when they've owned a conference win percentage at .800 (or better) at Game 4 forward, including 24% when they won the season's first meeting. Take Merrimack.<br><br>At 4 pm, our selection is on the Air Force Falcons + the points over Boise St. We played against Air Force on Wednesday, and got the $$$ with Colorado St., in a 29-point blowout. But off that 81-52 defeat, we'll switch gears and take the Falcons + the points this afternoon, as Boise is 6-15-1 ATS vs. conference foes off losses by 25+ points. Take Air Force. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Binghamton Bearcats + the points over Maine. The Black Bears upset Albany, 52-49, in their last night. This afternoon, the Black Bears have been installed as a favorite over the Bearcats. But Maine has consistently burned money as a favorite, going 0-3 ATS this season, and 1-8 ATS its last nine. Meanwhile, Binghamton has been solid as an underdog of more than 2 points, with 27 ATS wins in its last 41, including 20-3 ATS vs. foes off a win. Take the Bearcats + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

Our 3 selections include Wofford, Minnesota and Connecticut.<br><br>At 11 am, our selection is on the Wofford Terriers + the points over Mercer. These two teams met just 14 days ago, and the Bears bested Wofford, 109-97. And that was the only time Mercer has defeated Wofford in the last eight meetings. We'll take the Terriers to avenge that loss, as they're 7-1 ATS their last eight as an underdog (or PK) when playing with revenge. Take Wofford.<br><br>At 12 Noon, our selection is on the Minnesota Golden Gophers + the points over Nebraska. The Gophers are a solid 32-17-2 ATS as a home underdog off a SU loss, provided they didn't cover the point spread in their previous game, including 24-7 ATS if the line was 6 points or less. Take Minnesota.<br><br>At 12:30 pm, our selection is on the Connecticut Huskies minus the points over Villanova. UConn is riding a 14-game win streak. But it's also 0-5 ATS its last five. I like the Huskies this afternoon, as they're 21-9-2 ATS vs. foes off a SU win, if the Huskies were on a 4-game (or worse) ATS losing streak. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Indiana Pacers + the points over the Oklahoma City Thunder. These two teams met in Indiana's season opener, and the Thunder came away with a 6-point win in overtime (as a 7.5-point road favorite). Indiana is a solid 47-20 ATS as an underdog of more than 9 points when playing with revenge. And the Pacers also fall into a 244-152-9 ATS system of mine which plays on certain double-digit underdogs off losses. Grab the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Ohio Bobcats + the points over Akron. The Zips are 15-4 on the season, and 6-1 inside the MAC, while the Bobcats are 11-9, and 5-3 in conference play. I like Ohio as a home dog, as the Bobcats are a super 121-76 ATS at home when they didn't own a better record than their opponent. Additionally, Akron falls into a negative 'letdown' system of mine, which is 72-133 ATS since 1990, based on the Zips' blowout win over Buffalo on Tuesday. Take Ohio + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 9:35 pm,
our selection is on the Minnesota Wild over the Detroit Red Wings. The
Red Wings had to travel from Toronto to Minnesota overnight after their
victory over the Maple Leafs last night. Minnesota also just beat
the Leafs in Toronto quite decisively three days ago. And this has been
a very back-and-forth series lately with each team (Red Wings and Wild)
having won three of the last six meetings going back to the beginning
of the 2022 season. If Minny is going to make a statement, now would
be the time with a four-game homestand on the horizon beginning
tonight. The Wild's 2.82 goals-against this season is the fifth-best
number in the Western Conference and much of that can be attributed to
goalie Filip Gustavsson and his 2.56 GAA. Detroit is 13-8 this season
against teams with winning records, but when facing them on the road, it
is just 3-6 in nine games. Take Minnesota. As always, good luck...Al
McMordie.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Timberwolves minus the points over the Chicago Bulls. The Wolves have had an up-and-down January. After winning six of seven games to start the month, they've now lost three in a row -- all on the road. And their last loss was against the woeful Utah Jazz, as a 12.5-point road favorite. The good news for the T-Wolves is they're back home tonight where they'll take on the Chicago Bulls. Minnesota has won all three meetings vs. Chicago the last 2 seasons, and each win was by a wide margin. Last month, Minnesota blew out the Bulls by 35 points, 136-101. And its two wins last season were by 16 and 19 points. Minnesota is 13-4 ATS its last 17 games following an upset loss, including 10-0 ATS when it wasn't favored by 11+ points. Take the Timberwolves. Good luck as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7 pm, our selection is on the William & Mary Tribe minus the points over NC Wilmington. The Seahawks are riding a 7-game win streak, and have won 16 of their last 17. But they've not been making many friends "in Vegas," as they're 2-7-1 ATS their last 10. NC Wilmington has been installed as a road underdog tonight against a Bill & Mary team which is perfect at home this season, going 7-0 SU (4-1 ATS). The Tribe is also 20-2 SU its last 22 at home, and 10-3 ATS as a home favorite vs. foes off back-to-back wins (including 5-0 ATS its last five). William and Mary is covering the spread by an average of 4.4 ppg at home this season, while the Seahawks have failed to cover the spread on the road by 1.07 ppg this season. Lay the points with William & Mary. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Iona Gaels + the points over Merrimack. The Gaels enter tonight on a 2-game losing streak, while the Warriors are on a 2-game win streak. We'll take Iona as it is 15-6 ATS off back-to-back losses, including 6-0 ATS as an underdog (or PK). And Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference teams (like Merrimack), with an .800 (or better) Conference win percentage (at Game 4 forward), are 36.2% ATS on the road vs. conference foes. Take Iona. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the New York Knicks minus the points over Brooklyn. When the Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs in Las Vegas on December 16 to win the NBA Cup, it marked their sixth straight win and cover. And New York was 19-7 SU and 18-8 ATS at that time. But since winning that In-Season Tournament, the Knicks have hit the skids in a major way, going 7-11 SU and 3-15 ATS, including 0-4 SU/ATS their last four. So, perhaps there's no opponent New York would rather see tonight than the Brooklyn Nets. After all, New York has won 12 straight meetings vs. their Big Apple rival, going 8-3-1 ATS in those 12 games. We'll lay the points with the Knicks, as .579 (or better) teams off 4 SU/ATS losses have gone 12-0 ATS their last 12. Take New York. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
