The CFB PLAYOFF Round 1 Play is on Alabama. Game 295 at 8 eastern. First let me say,. The Tide with 3 losses do not deserve to be here. Notre Dame is a better team and were shafted because the powers that be have to have Bama in this year. With 3 losses its clear that they should be home. Dame lost 2 games by 4 points and to a pair of teams that have 3 losses combined. NOW The venting is over and we look at this game and see that favorites with Same season home favored loss revenge in a game that went under are 4-0 straight up and win by a 32-9 score when BOTH teams have at least 10 wins and the opponent scored 42 or less last out. Bama was clipped at home by the Sooners in a game they dominated on their home field as the turnovers were very costly. The Tide have prepared for bigger games more so than Oklahoma in recent years. This is not about the Sooners not being as a good a team but they are in a bad spot. Alabama is playing off a bad loss to a Georgia team that was sick of losing to and it showed. Bama played like a team that knew theyd get it regardless of the result of that game. Bama playing in a post season game where they are not laying alot of points and off a loss have covered every time vs a team off a win.

The NFC West Thursday night Power system play is on the LA. Rams. Game 101 at 8:20 eastern. Rob notes that Thursday night division home dogs with a winning record in week 3 or later that scored 30 or less last week are 0-15 straight if the total is 40 or higher. The system shows a loss even if these home team get favored by -1 which could happen as well. Looking further Thursday conference home teams off a home favored win and spread loss are 0-7 to the spread vs a team off a home win. The Rams are 5-1 straight up on the road after scoring 40 or more. ONLY the 2004 Colts have come into a Thursday night as a road team after scoring 40 or more in back to back games and they won. Since 2014 ANY road team that scored 40+ back to back are 4-0 all were dogs. Seattle is 0-7 straight up at home the last 3 years with road loss revenge if not laying 7 or more points. Seattle is 0-4 straight up at home on Thursdays. The Rams were tossed all over the field in a 2 point home win in the first meeting getting out yarded by 165 yards. The reason they won was holding Seattle to field goals and 4 Darnold picks. The game should be a close one here as Seattle likely wont turn it over 4 times Nor will they have such a large disparity in yards. The rams are 3-0 as a road favorite vs.750 or better teams and have won the last 3 on the road 2 as a dog vs an opponent with same season revenge. Both teams sit at 11-3 so this has major division implications. Based on the numbers we will go with the Rams. SU: 0-15 ATS: 0-14-1

The Ventures Bowl play is on UL. Lafayette at 8:30 eastern. Game 303 at 8:30 eastern. The Problem for Delaware in this game is they have just 1 win when not on their home field. Rob notes that Bowl dogs of less than 4 since 1983 are 0-6 straight up after scoring 57 or more and are taking on a team off a win. Also of note any bowl team that scored 60 or more are 2-12 to the spread vs a team with less than 8 wins. The Cajuns are rolling with 4 straight wins. There were only 2 teams with 6 wins off 4 straight wins and favored by 5 or less vs a team off a win and both covered. ULL Lafayette fits the better defensive model and we will back them tonight

Despite being a short dog these road teams lose by by 15 points per game setting up a solid Z-Factor. The home to road Dichotomy is about even on defense, Miami is ranked better i offensive statistics but the Steelers are better in scoring points per game and have better Turnover ration numbers. The Key for Pittsburgh will be stopping Achane who while playing is not 100% . The Steelers are in a dog fight with the Ravens for the division and should pull this one out.

The NBA non Divisional Power System Play is on Golden St. Game 581 at 9:10 eastern. The Warriors have same season Double revenge on Portland and they happen to be 7-0 straight up and to the spread the last few years as a road favorite playing off a home favored loss if they have home favored loss revenge. To tie in a nice system we see that Game 12 or later road favorites league wide are a perfect 15-0 straight up and to the spread in conference games off a home loss and playing with home favored loss revenge for a loss as a favorite of -9 or more, in other words. The loss they have revenge for was a pretty nice upset and we complete the system with our play against team coming in off a road loss in their last game.

The Sunday night Power system play is on Minnesota. Game 481 at 8:20 eastern. The Vikings are off a nice shutout win and apply to a solid and rare system that is 6-0 straight up for road Dogs of 2 or more since 1990 in week 4 or later in non division games if they are off a home win where they allowed less than 6 points and are taking on a .500 or better opponent like Dallas that comes in off a road dog loss. Minnesota has a better defense and Dallas has been allowing a ton of points. The Vikings lose road games to top level teams but every once in awhile spring upsets, like the one in Detroit as a 9 point dog a few weeks ago. We will take the points here.
