The USF Bulls will be on their home court tonight when they host the VCU Rams in the NIT Tournament in Tampa. The Bulls have been on a roll, going 8-2 over their last 10 and averaging 78.2 points per game. On the flip side, the Rams are 6-4 over their last 10, averaging 71.1 points per game. As the home team, USF is an impressive 15-2. You know for certain Yuengling Arena will be packed to the rafters with Bulls supporters and USF will not let them down. Currently the line is Bulls -3.5 with a money line of only -165 so it makes no sense to sweat the points.

Saturday’s NHL Pick
When the Vancouver Canucks take the ice at Rogers Arena, they are always the side to consider and that is where they will be tonight when they host the Calgary Flames. The best in the West Canucks boast a 44-18-8 overall record and are 23-7-4 on their home ice. The Flames, who need lots of prayers and help if they want to make the postseason, enter tonight’s game with an overall record of 33-30-5 and are 15-14-4 when away from the Scotiabank Saddledome. Vancouver is rolling and Calgary is not. The Canucks are 6-1-1 over their last 8 and the Flames have just 2 wins in their last 6 games. The Canucks will be without their #1 goalie, Thatcher Demko, again but no worries, Casey DeSmith has filled in just fine. Vancouver won the last meeting with the Flames in Calgary back in December and I expect they notch another one tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: VANCOUVER CANUCKS
Friday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The #12 seed James Madison Dukes and the #5 seed Wisconsin Badgers will square off tonight in a late one at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Going into the tournament, there was no one hotter than James Madison. The Dukes are riding a 13-game win streak, finishing the regular season with 31 wins, and I don’t care what conference you play in, that’s impressive. They also finished the season by ripping Arkansas State to shreds, 91-71. On the other hand, the Badgers fell to Illinois, 93-87, in their last outing and will have their tail between their legs entering tonight’s game. The Dukes are the real deal and are currently getting 5.5. Consider them.
TONIGHT’S PICK: JAMES MADISON DUKES +5½
Thursday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Nevada Wolf Pack and the Dayton Flyers will square off in the NCAA tournament today in Salt Lake City. Being in Salt Lake favors the Wolf Pack since Reno is a lot closer to Utah than Dayton so you know the arena will be filled with Pack fans. Nevada was also hot down the stretch, winning 8 of their last their 10. The Wolf Pack has the edge in points scored per game, 3-pointers, free throws, rebounds, steals, and blocked shots. The line is currently Nevada -1.5 with a money line of only -120.
TODAY’S PICK: NEVADA WOLF PACK M/L
Wednesday NHL Pick
The Toronto Maple Leafs have lost their last two games, and it won’t get any easier for them when they travel to DC tonight to face the surging Washington Capitals. The Caps have won their last three games against some quality opponents: the Vancouver Canucks, Calgary Flames and Seattle Kraken, all on the road. Toronto however has had Washington’s number. The Leafs have won six of the last seven meetings and have been a great road team with a record of 20-8-6. Despite being without one of their top producers, Mitch Marner, who is sidelined with an ankle injury tonight, the Leafs find a way to get it done.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS
