The MAC championship will be on the line tonight when the Buffalo Bulls face the Northern Illinois Huskies at Ford Field in Detroit. Buffalo comes into tonight’s game at 10-2 and can light up the scoreboard. The Bulls average 35.2 points per game and allow an average of 24.2. Buffalo’s potent offense is led by their 6’7″ quarterback Tyree Jackson and he is a play maker, tossing 25 TDs and running for another 7. The Huskies come into tonight’s game at 7-5, averaging just 19.9 points per game and allowing 20.9. This won’t be a walk in the park for Buffalo. Northern Illinois is stingy on defense and have won the last 10 meetings against the Bulls, but trends always end. The line sits at -3.5 Buffalo so consider the Bulls on the money line.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO BULLS M/L
Month: November 2018
Thursday NBA Pick
The Los Angeles Lakers were humiliated in Denver on Tuesday, getting blown out by the Nuggets, 117-85. Tonight they will look to get back on track when they host the Indiana Pacers at Staples Center. The Pacers do not cover the number against the Lakers. They are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings with the Lakers and 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 at Staples Center.

Wednesday NHL Pick
The Dallas Stars will take their 4-7-2-0 road record into Scotiabank Saddledome tonight when they step across the border to take on the Calgary Flames. Good luck, because you’re gonna need it. The Flames are 5-1 in their last 6 at home and 4-1 in their last 5 overall.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CALGARY FLAMES
Tuesday NHL Pick
When the Winnipeg Jets take the ice at Bell MTS Place, good things usually happen, and that’s where they will be tonight when they host the Pittsburgh Penguins. Winnipeg is 8-2-1-1 at home. They will face a Pittsburgh team that is 0-5 in their last 5 road games and 3-10 in their last 13 overall.

Monday NHL Pick
The New York Rangers have lost two in a row and tonight they will look to get back on track when they host an Ottawa Senators team that cannot stop the puck. The Senators have allowed more goals than any other club in the NHL and are a dismal 2-7-1 on the road where they are allowing an average of 5.40 goals per game, which is not good. The Rangers are always a force at MSG, with a home record of 9-4-0 and are 7-1 in their last 8 at the rink in mid-town. The home team has won 10 of the last 11 meetings between these two clubs and Ottawa is 1-4 in their last 5 trips to MSG. TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK RANGERS
Sunday NFL Pick
The Buffalo Bills will be a home dog today when they host the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jags have lost 6 in a row and are just 1-3 on the road. The Bills will have their rookie quarterback Josh Allen back in the lineup. This kid is a true competitor and can make things happen. Buffalo hasn’t forgotten last season when they lost to the Jags in the Wild Card game and would love nothing more than to put a dagger in these guys today. The Bills will be well-rested after coming off a bye from last week and will have 80,000 Western New Yorkers in the stands to back them up.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS +3
Saturday NCAA Men’s Basketball
