Under 58 W. Mich/S. Alabama Lower scoring game W. Mich better defense

CBB Xavier +8
Xavier is 8-2 in last 10 meetings.
Seems like a very generous line
To me so I’m taking points

Army
Navy has the worst defense of the two and Army can score a lot of points

Houston under The total has gone OVER in 4 of Houston's last 5 games on the road

Cfb
Navy under 39.5
Always a hard fought game both have scored points this year but this game is see a low score

Navy/Army UNDER 39.5

Both teams are primarily run teams as we've seen for decades. Both teams know each other very well and know how to stop the run. I expect the clock to keep running having the under hit hopefully. Historically this game is very low scoring in cold weather and that is the forecast today.

I am going with the UNDER too in army navy 39
history is good enough for me to do it

keep the clock moving
under 39

Army -6

While usually you play the dog in the academy games, Army this year just has the better team. Navy will have problems against Bryson Daily. Army also loves to run off tackle while Navy has allowed a 15% explosive play rate against those sets. Three weeks ago, Navy lost at home to Tulane 35-0, last week Army beat the same Tulane team 35-14

Army- simply too much offense and navy D is marginal
Xavier- hot team and with d they play, too many points
Auburn- Osu lack of size will be the difference.

Dayton -1

They have played well vs good teams so far but today they are a lower ranked team playing a higher ranked team at home a system that has worked well for a number of yrs

Hard to fade this Army team, I'm laying the 6 like 88% of the peeps out there. I get all the history and the Cadets losing against the spread in this game as a favorite but this is a different team... I think Army continues to roll...

Army -5- better QB The Cadets win by 10+

NBA
536 Milwaukee -3.5

On my spreadsheet I have a situation that . Milwaukee that is 20-10
Play Milwaukee

NHL

Vegas

Vegas has Edmonton twice this year. They have been to finals before.

I see them winning this game today.

2-Team Teaser: ARMY PK / UNDER 45 ... Should be a grinder game dominated in the end by Army run game. This could be over in 2 1/2 hours.

NHL: Ducks / Blue Jackets Over 6 -115

Blue Jackets rank 9th in goals scored
Blue Jackets rank 7th worst in goals allowed
Blue Jackets are 19-9-1 to the over

Over 6 is the lowest head-to-head number since 2022

Illinois ML ============== Tenn untested & the line tells you who the oddsmakers think will win

Milwaukee Bucks - Atlanta Hawks +3.5

My pick : Hawks +3.5

The Bucks face the Hawks in the semis in Vegas. Milwaukee’s been on fire lately, especially with Middleton back, but Atlanta is a dangerous underdog. The Hawks already beat the Bucks earlier this season, and Jalen Johnson’s return gives them a big boost.

While Milwaukee’s depth and star power (Giannis, Dame, Middleton) are undeniable, they’ve been inconsistent in clutch moments. Atlanta, led by Trae Young and a strong supporting cast, can keep it close. With the point advantage, I’m leaning toward the Hawks.

Gonzaga -3.5...Conn defense is pretty bad and Gonzaga should be able to score more than enough to cover this small number

Isaiah Hartenstein Double Double

Hartenstein has recorded a double double in 7/9 games this season, including in 7/8 when playing at least 25 minutes. He should see plenty of time on the court coming into this game with 2 days of rest, he played 30 minutes in the NBA Cup quarterfinals and with the matchup against Sengun Im expecting him to play close to 30 minutes again.
