Richmond at Saint Bonaventure
Play: Saint Bonaventure -4.5
St. Bonaventure destroyed Fordham at home last Saturday and it followed that up with an overtime win at Rhode Island on Wednesday. While that won't qualify as a quality win and not even a good win but it is significant in what didn't happen. If the Bonnies had lost that game, it could have been a disaster as the Rams are the only winless teams in the A-10. Past St. Bonaventure teams would have gone on the road and lost but this team is different and it rides confidence into a big game. Richmond is coming off a similar mauling of Fordham on Wednesday as it rolled by 44 points. That snapped a two-game losing streak for the Spiders but I am still not sold on this team yet. They were one of the top team in the country last season but they lost a significant amount of talent and while it isn't a rebuilding project, things are not as good. Richmond already has six road losses which is twice as many as all of last season and it is going to a place that has been tough on opponents. The Bonnies are 7-1 at home and they are one of only four teams in the Atlantic Ten that have played fewer home games than road games and that is significant. It shows they have been tested more and that they have not scheduled a big amount of home games against cupcake teams that don't help at all going forward. They have won six straight games at home and are a perfect 3-0 at home in conference games, including a very solid win against Dayton. This is the first time in a while that the Bonnies have an edge and they take advantage. They have edges both offensively and defensively in terms of points and shooting and they also have a big edge down low with a +8.6 rpg margin between the two teams. St. Bonaventure has not been in position very often to extract any sort of revenge but that is finally the case here. The Bonnies have faced Richmond once in each of the past three years and was blown away each time, losing by 16, 19 and 27 points. Now its their turn.

San Jose State @ Utah State
PICK: Utah State -13
It's getting down to crunch time for the Utah State Aggies. After a tough start to the month, they picked up a much-needed win over Hawaii on Thursday night, pulling back to an even 3-3 in conference play.
This looks like an ideal spot for the Aggies to build some positive momentum, as they host San Jose State.
The Spartans are essentially in a rebuilding year, and it's showed. They're just 7-14 SU and 6-10 ATS in lined games this season, and have yet to notch a victory in conference play.
This is a tough scheduling spot for San Jose State, as it plays its second road game in three days, following a hard-fought 74-66 loss at Idaho on Thursday.
Utah State owns a strong home court edge, having posted a 9-2 SU record on this floor this season. The Aggies slipped up against a fast-rising Nevada squad here at home earlier this month, but has also posted impressive double-digit victories over Kent State and Fresno State on this court over the last five weeks.
San Jose State had a much stronger team a year ago, and managed to stay competitive in two of three meetings with Utah State, but still came up empty on all three occasions. Without Adrian Oliver and Justin Graham to lean on, I suspect the Spartans will be in tough against a highly-motivated Aggies squad on Saturday night.
Marc Lawrence
Middle Tennessee State @ Vanderbilt
PICK: Middle Tennessee State +8.5
There’s nothing ‘Blue’ about the Raiders’ 15-4 ATS log this season. The nation’s top money earners are also 14-1 ATS when not favored by more than 13 points and a perfect 5-0 ATS when taking points this season. And against .500 or greater opposition this season, the Raiders have certainly not lost their ‘Arc’, posting a 6-0 SU and 5-0 ATS mark. This non-conference affair also finds the Commodores in the middle of a nasty SEC revenge sandwich. While Vandy did get some payback on Tuesday against a Tennessee team who swept them last season, the Commies are just 4-11 ATS after facing their archrivals from Knoxville. We also have a feeling that Kevin Stallings’ squad may be peeking ahead to a Tuesday night matchup at Arkansas against a herd of hogs that came into Nashville last year as 13-point dogs and ran away with a 89-78 victory. With a winless (0-3) record in this series, we can’t call for a Raiders’ outright win, but we do suggest grabbing the points as this ‘blue-headed’ stepchild appears to have a few more teeth this season. We recommend a 1-unit play on Middle Tennessee state.

Wichita State vs. Drake
Play: Wichita State -9½
Wichita State is locked in a battle for first place in the MVC with Creighton. They are a stellar road team this season and 18-3 overall. The Shockers are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a winning home record and 13-6 ATS in their last 19 road games. Drake is 5-5 in the conference, the Bulldogs are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a winning road record and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. Play Wichita State!
Scott Spreitzer
UNLV at Air Force
Prediction: UNLV
The Runnin' Rebels received a scare in Boise, Idaho last time out. UNLV was obviously flat from the opening tip and they were also a bit surprised and shocked when they met a matchup zone defense employed by the Broncos. The Rebels had to go to OT before finally winning the contest. They shot too many 3-pointers (34) and were quite fortunate to "can" 13 of them. Overall, the Rebels made just 34.8% against Boise. The Rebels have not played 2 straight uninspired games in a row this season and I doubt this veteran bunch will start now. Air Force is 8-2 SU at home. That success - plus their close call the other night will keep UNLV focused on the task at hand. The Falcons haven't reacted well to UNLV's athleticism, scoring just 47.8 ppg in their last 8 meetings, all Rebel wins. AFA did not top 53 points in any of the 8 tilts. UNLV is 5-1 ATS off a spread loss, while AFA have covered just 7 of their last 28 as an underdog of 7 to 12 1/2 points. I'm recommending a play on UNLV on Saturday.

Hawaii at Idaho
Play: Hawaii
The Warriors (11-9) have lost three of their last four games after their 77-72 loss at Utah State on Thursday as a 10-point underdog. Hawaii has rebounded to cover the point spread in 4 of their last 5 games after a loss. The Warriors have also covered 5 of their last 6 games after exceeding expectations with a point spread victory. Hawaii has also covered 8 of their last 11 games against fellow WAC opponents. Idaho (11-9) is 7-3 at home this season but they only have a +3.1 net point differential on their home court. The Warriors are 2-4 on the road this season but they do possess a respectable net point differential of -3.6 away from home despite that losing road record. Hawaii has covered the spread in 8 of their 11 road games against teams with a winning record at home. The Vandals have failed to cover the spread in 6 of their last 7 home games against teams with a losing record on the road. Idaho comes off a 74-62 win against San Jose State but they have failed to cover the spread in 5 of their last 6 games following a victory. The Vandals have also failed to cover the spread in 7 of their last 9 games against WAC opponents. Lastly, the deeper net Points-Per-Possession metrics in conference play (my favorite college basketball metric) suggests that Hawaii is undervalued as a 5.5-point underdog in this matchup. Idaho is tied for 2nd in the conference with a 4-2 record. However, their net PPP efficiency margin of -0.03 in WAC play is 6th in the conference (Offensive PPP: 1.06; Defensive PPP: 1.09). Hawaii is 3-3 in the conference -- but their +0.02 net PPP efficiency margin in the conference (Offensive PPP: 1.08; Defensive PPP: 1.06) is 3rd best in the WAC. Hawaii is a little better than their record while Idaho looks due for a reality check. The Warriors should keep this game very close.

Tulsa vs. SMU
Play: Tulsa -2.5
Tulsa has won and covered 11 of 14 times in this series and has home loss revenge here for a 57-55 loss as an 8.5 favorite. Tulsa has won their last 5 and is 6-1 in Conference play. When the are a road favorite from -3 or less they have won and covered 4 of the 5 times. Tulsa is 3-1 vs teams ranked 150 to 200 in the RPI. SMU is 4-13 vs teams who allow 65 or less points per game and 2-6 ats vs winning teams. When they are a home dog of 3 or less they are 3-10 straight up and ats. Look for Tulsa to get the win and cover tonight.
Dave Cokin
Saint Marys Ca vs BYU
Pick: BYU
St. Mary's is a rock solid entry but this will be a difficult spot for the Gaels. BYU can be very tough at home and it sure sounds like the Cougars are excited about this game, which appears pivotal as far as their post-season hopes are concerned. The number is a bit of a hurdle, but I'm going with BYU to get the job done tonight.
Triple Threat Sports!
1* North (-) over South
These All Star games are all about QB play, and the North throwers are simply better - and very importantly more suited to the NFL game - than those on the South squad. The South has Nick Foles of Arizona, Ryan Lindley of San Diego State (who we think will have the best numbers of the three South QB's in this game) and Brandon Weeden of Oklahoma State. The latter has put up amazing numbers, but that was in a system designed for amazing numbers, and now he is being asked to adapt to a pro system. On the other hand the North has pro style pocket passers in Kirk Cousins of Michigan State and Kellen Moore of Boise State to go along with Russel Wilson of NC State/Wisconsin. The latter can produce from the pocket but also adds mobility, and the ability to improvise is crucial in All Star games like this. The talent on the other spots on the roster is even overall, but the QB play will be the difference here.
SPORTS WAGERS
Colorado St. +2½ over SAN DIEGO ST.
With college football done and a two week wait for the Super Bowl, all eyes on this Saturday afternoon turn to college basketball. One of the most profitable angles over the years involves ranked teams that are a small favorite on the road facing an unranked opponent and this one sticks out like a sore thumb. San Diego State has shot up the rankings over the past couple of weeks with a straight up win over then #12 UNLV followed by a win over New Mexico at the Pit. They're now 4-0 in the conference and 18-2 overall. They've won 11 in a row and they're gaining national recognition. Surely, the books are quite aware of all the attention yet they've made the Aztecs just a 2½-point choice over the Rams. Colorado State is just 2-2 in the conference with only conference wins coming against bottom feeders, Tennessee and TCU. They've lost two in a row to Wyoming and New Mexico and they lost by 33 at the Pit and by 19 to Wyoming. Combine that with SDSU's scorching run and what we have is a very enticing Aztecs here laying a small number. San Diego State wasn't supposed to be this good. They lost four starters from last year and entered the season with less returning experience (as measured by possessions weighted by playing time) than any other Mountain West team. The line here is suspect and we’re following its lead. Play: #590 Colorado State +2½ (Risking 2.04 units to win 2).
We're also playing the following games:
AIR FORCE +11 over UNLV
Play #688 Air Force +11 (Risking 2.2 units to win 2).
MASSACHUSETTS +166 over Saint Louis
Play: #582 +166 (Risking 2 units).

1 Unit Texas A&M -4.5
Expect a letdown from Oklahoma State on the road following Wednesday's big upset win over Missouri. The Cowboys are just 2-8 when playing away from home this season, losing those games by an average of 8.8 points. Texas A&M, meanwhile, is 10-2 at home, where it is winning by an average of 11.0 points.
The Cowboys have been a terrible road underdog for quite some time, checking into this contest at 19-41-2 ATS in their last 62 games in the role. They are also just 14-31-1 ATS in their last 46 games as an underdog of 6.5 points or less. The Aggies, meanwhile, are 15-7-1 ATS in their last 23 games as a home favorite of 6.5 points or less.
The Aggies have won the last 3 in this series with the 2 home wins during this span coming by 15 and 23 points. Also, the home team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Take Texas A&M.

1 Unit Tennessee -9
Auburn has been awful away from home, where it is 1-7 this season with an average losing margin of 14.5 points. Tennessee is a strong 8-3 at home, where it is winning by 9.5 points. Plus, the Vols have won 6 in a row at home against the Tigers with those wins coming by 26, 19, 16, 6, 23 and 29 for an average winning margin of 19.8 points. Motivated by Tuesday's poor performance at Vandy, expect the Vols to bounce back strong here.
Chip Chirimbes
Auburn vs. Tennessee
Play: Tennessee -9
Doesn't it seems strange to you that the 9-11 Volunteers are favored so heavily over a 12-8 Auburn club. The answer may be found in past performances where the home team in this series is 11-1 ATS in the last 12 and that the favorite has won 10 of the last 12 meetings. With the addition of Memphis native the 6'8” Jarnell Stokes who makes a difference for the Volunteers.
