One thing the Buffalo Bulls don’t do is lose, winners of 13 in a row, and winning is contagious. Today they will look to make it 14 straight when they face the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Bulls are getting 4 points in this one and you know what they do in non-conference games, cover. They are 9-2-1 ATS in their last 13 non-conference games. This could be a money line bet on Buff but they are getting 4. Take it.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BULLS +4
Month: March 2019
Saturday NHL Pick
The Montreal Canadiens are just 1 point ahead of the Columbus Blue Jackets for the final spot in the Wild Card race so losing is not an option. The Habs are surging at the right time, winners of their last two, and will host a struggling Buffalo Sabres team tonight at Bell Centre. Buffalo is just 3-12-2 in their last 17 overall and a dismal 11-20-5 on the road. The Canadiens are 0-1-2 this year against the boys from Western New York so they are due.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MONTREAL CANADIENS
Friday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Buffalo Bulls are the real deal and they will prove that today when they face the Arizona State Sun Devils in an early one in Tulsa. Numbers do not lie. The Bulls have won 12 straight and are ranked 5th in the nation in scoring, averaging 84.9 points per game. Buffalo is 5-0 on a neutral court where they have averaged 87.0 points per game and allowed an average of 71.6. On the flip side, the Sun Devils are 4-2 on a neutral court where they have averaged 76.2 points per game and allowed an average of 72.8. Buffalo has the edge in points per game, field goal percentage, free throw percentage, defense, rebounding, turnovers, and bench. Run with the Bulls.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BULLS M/L
Thursday Men’s NCAA Tournament Pick
The #7 ranked Nevada Wolf Pack and #10 ranked Florida Gators square off today in the first round of Western Regional play. Consider the Wolf Pack in this one. Nevada plays an up tempo game and can score. They are averaging 80.7 points per game and have a solid defense, surrendering an average of 66.7. Florida has defended well, allowing an average of 63.6 points per game but offensively they are averaging just 68.3. The Pack has the edge in points per game, field goal percentage, rebounding, turnovers, and bench. Nevada’s star player, Jordan Caroline, will be back in the line-up and he is a game changer. TONIGHT’S PICK: NEVADA WOLF PACK M/L
Wednesday NBA Pick
The Toronto Raptors will be spotted 5 points tonight when they visit Chesapeake Energy Arena for a match-up with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Raptors are catching a Thunder team that has lost 3 straight and have not been covering the number. OKC is just 3-12 ATS in their last 15 overall and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 at home. Toronto is an impressive 21-14 on the road, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 in Oklahoma City, and the road team has covered 6 of the last 7 meetings.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TORONTO RAPTORS +5
Tuesday NHL Pick
With the Arizona Coyotes and the Minnesota Wild both breathing down their necks in the wild card race, the Dallas Stars know they have to get back on track and in a hurry. Dallas will try to do just that and snap their 2-game skid when they host the Florida Panthers tonight at American Airline Center. Dallas has played well at home with a record of 21-12-3, they expect to have Ben Bishop between the pipes and he has been red hot. Bishop has not allowed a goal in over 230 minutes of play, has a .933 SV% and a 2.05 GAA. On the flip side, Florida has been playing well, winning 4 of their last 5 but their road record is not great at 14-16-6 and they fell to Dallas at home back in February, 0-3. The Stars get back on track.
TONIGHT’S PICK: DALLAS STARS
Monday NHL Pick
With a win tonight at home over the Arizona Coyotes, the Tampa Bay Lightning will capture the Atlantic Division title. The NHL’s best is 30-6-2 at home and are riding a 4-game winning streak. In the last meeting between these two clubs, the Lightning were throttled by the Coyotes, 7-1, but that was in the desert and Tampa has not forgotten. Payback time.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING
