North Carolina State Wolfpack at Boston College Eagles

B.C. stayed within the number Saturday at Duke as it caught the Blue Devils off their big win over North Carolina. The Eagles still went down to their sixth straight defeat, all in league play, and at 12-10 on the season are a long shot to even make the N.I.T. In contrast, N.C. State has an outside shot at the Big Dance and an almost certain N.I.T. bid if it can win games like this and pull an upset or two down the stretch. It has lost four times already on the ACC road but those were to Duke, North Carolina, Clemson and Maryland in its last. It has revenge spots upcoming at home versus the first three of those clubs so if it grabs this one can build some momentum for a solid stretch run.

Heat vs. Bulls

A pair of franchises heading south in a hurry in this game. These teams competed in the opening round of the Eastern Conference playoffs last spring and neither will be in the big picture this time around. Our complimentary NBA selection for Thursday Night action will be on #701 Miami Heat as they avenge last season’s playoff loss on the Bulls home court to save a little face in this disappointing season.

Cal Poly @ UC Santa Barbara

Play: UCSB -11.5

UC-Santa Barbara has been a major money burner at home in Big West action. But Cal Poly is a good matchup for the Gauchos and off a dreadful second half showing that got them a loss last Saturday against UC-Irvine, I think we see UCSB going full bore for the full forty tonight. Poly is heading back in the wrong direction and I believe they'll get clobbered tonight. UC-Santa Barbara is the play.

No Arizona (15-9) at Montana St (13-10)

Big Sky matchup as NAU is 7-4 and Montana St is 13-10.

This is a revenge game but the first one was no contest

at NAU as the Lumberjacks won 78-58.

This will be closer but NAU wins again.

Take No Arizona

Jimmy The Moose

Game: Tampa Bay Lightning at Philadelphia Flyers
Prediction: Tampa Bay Lightning

Reason: Tampa currently sits in last play in their conference but have played a lot better of late. The Lightning have won 3 of their last 4 games. Tampa has won 6 of their last 7 road games. In their last 6 games vs. a yeam with a winning record TB is 5-1. Philadelphia has lost 4 straight and all 4 losses have been vs. Conference opponents. In their last 16 games played with 1 days rest between games the Flyers are 5-11. Tampa has won their last 4 trips to Philadelphia. The Flyers are 5-16 in the last 21 meetings between the clubs. Play on the Lightning +.

Game: Washington State vs. Oregon State

Plays On: Oregon State +11.5

Game Analyses: Washington State is the better overall team, however, they should NOT be favorite by so many points. This means great value with Oregon State tonight.

It's already a known fact that Oregon State almost always seems to play well against Washington State. In fact, Oregon State is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 meetings against Washington State.

Grab the points with this underdog!

Selection: Oregon -7.5

Reason: Put us down on Oregon -7.5 for our Free College Basketball Selection on Thursday. Today Washington will be on the road (3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games) as they take on Oregon (12-5-2 ATS in their last 19 home games). We will lay the points with Oregon! One key to an Oregon victory comes down to the fact that they have the much better offense. Oregon (at home) is scoring an average of 86.5 points per game, while Washington (on the road) is scoring an average of only 65.2 points per game. This means that the Oregon offense is scoring an average of 21.3 points per game more then the Washington offense. In addition, the home team has had much success in this series. In fact, the home team is 8-1 ATS in the last 9 meetings between these teams. It's also good to note that Oregon is 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 games against Pac-10 Conference teams. Lay the points!

Take Oregon -7.5

Boston College Eagles - 4.5 over N.C.State Wolfpack

N.C. State (15-8, 4-5) is 1-4 ATS last five road games. Boston College (12-10, 3-6) in last season's meeting, the Eagles were in control throughout winning at N.C.State 74-58.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets + 9 over (at) Clemson Tigers

Clemson (17-6, 5-4) vs. Georgia Tech (11-11, 4-4) enters on a three game ACC road winning streak. Teams split two meetings last season each winning at home, Tech 80-62, Clemson 75-74.

John Ryan

Game: Eastern Illinois at SE Missouri St.
Prediction: Eastern Illinois

Reason: Ai Simulator 3* graded play on Eastern Illinois - Eastern Illinois has won just 4 games, but they are in a solid opportunity to get a rare road upset win tonight. AiS shows a 77% probability that EI will lose this game by 7 or fewer points. When you have a 4-20 record your defense is nearly always a weak spot. That is certainly the case with EI as they have allowed 45% shooting and 70 PPG on the season. This weakness though has rarely been exploited by SE Missouri State. SEMST is 4-15 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record after 15 or more games over the last 3 seasons; 5-14 ATS versus poor defensive teams allowing a shooting percentage defense of >=45% after 15+ games over the last 3 seasons. SEMST is coming off 3 straight losses and in their last game they lost at Eastern Kentucky by 11 points failing to cover the 9 points they were given. Note that SEMST is just 4-15 ATS off a road loss against a conference rival over the last 3 seasons. Take Eastern Illinois.

VEGAS EXPERTS TIP OF THE DAY

Washington State Cougars at Oregon State Beavers

After opening the season 14-0 Washington State is just 4-5 its last seven. It has USC's number, having beat the Trojans by 15 points on the road before Saturday's 24 point home win. But in the rest of its league road games it really hasn't been able to get any margin. It won last year at Oregon State 58-54 after losing the previous eight at this site. Oregon State in the midst of a 13-game losing streak and has lost five in a row at home. Its last was no disgrace though as it fell Saturday at Stanford 71-56. This is then coming home for the Beavers and dropping in class as well. Washington State has Oregon on deck and will struggle to cover the big number.
