The Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons will be a road favorite tonight over the Wright State Raiders, and they should be. Year in and year out the Mastodons have been a scoring machine, and this year is no different. They are averaging 82.5 points per game, and they are hot. The Mastodons have won 3 straight, 8 of their last 10, and over their last 3 wins they have put up 258 points. PFW sits in the second spot in the Horizon and in conference play they are 6-2. Wright State is seventh in the Horizon and is 3-4 in conference play, averaging 75.5 points per game. The Raiders fell to Robert Morris in their last outing, 75-72, and are just 2-4 in their last 6 games. The line is currently PFW -1.5, with a money line of -120. It should be higher. Jump on the Mastodons money line.
TODAY’S PICK: PURDUE FORT WAYNE MASTODONS M/L
Tuesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Southeast Missouri State Redhawks will be on their home court tonight when they face off with their Ohio Valley nemesis, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Trojans. The Redhawks lost both meetings with the Trojans last year so they will have payback on their minds and should prevail. As the home team, the Redhawks are 7-2 and are averaging 73.4 points per game. As the away team, the Trojans are 3-5 and are averaging 68.2 points per game. Edge SE Missouri State. The Redhawks are currently laying 1.5 and are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games but the money line is only -130. Don’t get burned by the hook.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SOUTHEAST MISSOURI STATE REDHAWKS M/L
Monday NHL Pick
The Florida Panthers will be at Wells Fargo Center tonight to face the Philadelphia Flyers. The 18-20-5 Flyers will have their hands full tonight. The Champs are 25-15-3 overall and have played well on the road, with a record of 13-7-1. They have also won both meetings with the Broad Street Bullies this year. The Flyers have just 1 win in their last 5 tries and are just 9-11-1 on their home ice. The Panthers score more, give up less, and is the side to consider.
TONIGHT’S PICK: FLORIDA PANTHERS
Sunday NFL Pick
Tonight’s NFC Wild Card game will be at Raymond James Stadium where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Washington Commanders. Both of these teams were hot down the stretch, with Washington winning their last 5 and Tampa winning 6 of their last 7. The Bucs have already beaten the Commanders earlier this year in Tampa, cruising to an easy 37-20 victory. Tampa’s QB, Baker Mayfield, has been overshadowed by the likes of Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, but he shouldn’t be. Mayfield has thrown for 4,500 yards with 41 touchdowns and if that doesn’t put fear in the Commanders defense, I don’t know what will. Washington’s QB, Jayden Daniels, has had a great rookie season, but he is still a rookie and will make mistakes.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS M/L
Saturday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The USF Bulls will be a 3.5 underdog today when they travel to the Big Easy for a matchup with the Tulane Green Wave. The 9-6 Bulls are #2 in the AAC and the Green Wave sit in the #7 spot with a record of 8-8. The Bulls once again are getting no respect, but they should. This team is good. Last week they were an 8.5-point dog against the Wichita Shockers, and it was a shocker alright. Not only did they cover the number, but they also blew the Shockers out on their home court, 91-72. South Florida is also on a 4-game winning streak, averaging 79.3 points per game as opposed to Tulane’s 76.2 and is the side to consider.
TODAY’S PICK: USF BULLS +3½
Friday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference has an early one scheduled today with the Sacred Heart Pioneers hosting the Merrimack Warriors in Fairfield, Connecticut. The Pioneers will be a home dog, currently getting 2.5, and I’ll take it. Both teams are 6-8 overall and match up well but the edge goes to the Pioneers. As the home team, the Pioneers are 4-1 and average 76 points per game as opposed to the Warriors 63.8. They also have the edge in 3-pointers, rebounds, and have won their last two.
TODAY’S PICK: SACRED HEART PIONEERS +2½
Thursday NHL Pick
The 15-18-7 New York Islanders had better be clicking on every cylinder tonight because they will be at T-Mobile Arena to face the best in hockey, the 28-9-3 Vegas Golden Knights and they are hot. The Knights have won 3 straight, 9 of their last 10, and are 17-4-0 on the strip. They are also one of the league’s most prolific scoring teams, averaging 3.55 goals per game while surrendering just 2.65. The Isles won their last game over the Bruins in OT but prior to that they lost 3 in a row and are just 3-6 over their last 9. Vegas has won the last two meetings with New York and is the side to consider.
TONIGHT’S PICK: VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS
