Teddy June’s College Basketball Game of the Day
My 10* College Basketball Game of the Day is the Rhode Island Rams minus the points over the Charlotte 49ers. Big revenge spot here for the Rams as these two teams just met last week with Charlotte beating URI 74-64. The Rams struggled down the stretch of the season but are still the better overall team here and I expect they regroup and make a strong run in this tournament. Charlotte overall on the year was not particularly strong on the road going 5-9 with neutral court games included while URI had a lot of early season success on the road and finished including neutral court games 10-6. URI is led by senior point guard Will Daniels who is a flat out stud and should have a huge A-10 tournament. Expect the Rams to enact some revenge here and make a solid run in this tourney. I currently have this line at -1.5 and have this rated at 10* up to -3. As always, Good Luck, Let’s make some money.

California -2 (POD)
I was in Vegas for 9 months years ago before leaving to start grad school. I went there to learn about writing odds, worked for sportsadvisors.com as a writer and analyst and at that time sold whowillcover.com when I left there, the website that my buddy and I started up (sold it to sportsadvisors and brandon). I came across a gent who at that time was 68, thus he is 72 now. He helped me develop a part of the spreadsheet that I have today and in many ways was my mentor. He contacted me yesterday and occsaionally give sme feed back as he does read this blog frequently as he still wagers and looks at the research I put up and essentially stated:
"Listen, your strength is your research, it always has been. Your success in the past has been the research and the spreadsheets that you created. If you want a structure to live by regarding your philosophy of betting, then do this. Research the shit out of games. Be selective, Prefer Dogs that can win outright as you always have, but don't limit yourself and do take favorites when they have a strong correlation to cover, stay away from gut feelings that is not supported by research as it is just not worth it, be confident in your picks and your hard work, don't be arrogant and stay humble, stay up beat and even keel regardless of wins and losses, and simply work hard, kick some *** and let gambling Gods take care of the rest as if you do this, I promise you things always take care of itself." Best advice I have heard in a long time as I consider him my mentor over the past few years and might even keep that as my signature just to read it every morning. Let's Roll.
The Play:
Cal is my POD today for many reasons. You remember that shaft of a game this team had against UCLA, a game this team should have won as that was a blatant foul on westbrook although I think the shot by Ship should have counted as it wasn't directly over the backboard, but I can see the argument from both sides. However, that was a clear foul on Westbrook as UCLA was actually trying to foul in that instant. California has lost 7 of their last 8 ballgames including losing to Washington earlier this year by 3 points at home on March 1st. But, this is where I will come and defend Cal. Look, this team went on the road to UCLA and lost by 1 point - against a team that is of #1 caliber. This team was cheated. This team has revenge on Washington and this team lost by 4 points to USC on the road. Thus, thi team faced USC and UCLA on back to back games and lost by a total of 5 points - what does that tell you? That tells you that this team is capable of playing solid teams and doing well. This game is in the Staples Center in the State of California where the Lakers play so that should be an advantage for this team and of course, this team did beat Cal on the road by 4 earlier this year. I like Cal here with the edge with the crowd behind them and bouncing back from their latest screw job at UCLA, as of course, if this team can lose by a total of 5 points to UCLA and USC on the road, I think they can beat a team they have already defeated on the road at home on a bounce-back. The Golden Bears are 9-2-1 ATS as favorites on neutral ground while Washington is 2-5 ATS as small underdogs. Go Golden Bears!
Charlotte Bobcats (Don't have a line on this game)
There is no line on this game, but I will gladly take Charlotte as hopefully as a 7.5 or better dog, although I would hope that this line is possibly even up to 9 given Dallas's big win over New York. However, why would New York not get thumped when essentially their top 4 scorers are out and Dallas of course is looking for big wins at home given that their team is actually worse now that it was before in my opinion. Charlotte played a very tight ballgame but lost the game and the cover the last time they played the Mavs at home but the Bobcats believe it or not are in a playoff hunt having won 5 straight games including a big road win against Washington and even were competitive against the Celtics losing by 8 easily falling within the huge double-digit 17 point cover that game. Follow me here: Charlotte won by 12 against the Raps at home, 20 on the road at Minny, 9 against GS at home, 15 against ATL at home and 3 points on the road outright at Washington. Why can they not stay competitive in this game given their latest rounds of blowout wins and outright wins especially playing with revenge on what is likely to be an inflated Mavs line given their big win over the Knicks recently. Give me the points in a game that the Bobcats will be competitive and who knows, could win this game outright. The Bobcats have covered their last 6 ballgames.
76ers +9
What I like most about this game is the fact that the Sixers come off a loss to the Celtics by 15. This is a good Sixers team and actually one of the better teams in the East as proven by their covering 6 of their last 8 ballgames. Yes, they lost to the Celtics, but the C's were drilling teams on the road, just take a look at the Memphis game. This team beat Phoenix outright on the road, they beat the Clippers by 26 on the road, Milwaukee by 22 on the road and have lost to the Pistons by scores of 86-78 and 83-78 twice this year. This is a game that I think the Sixers will play very hard and stay within the inside cover and this was nearly my POD today as the Bobcats were as well, but I think the Sixers hang very tough today and compete for the outright at Detroit.
Cincy Bearcats +9
Any time I can get a team coming off getting spanked by 40 points, I will take them the next game on the spread. This includes the Bearcats who play in a competitive Big East Conference facing a Pittsburgh team away from home and a Pitt team that the Bearcats lost to Cincy on the road by 3 points and beat them by 6 points at home. Cincy lost by 45 points on the road to Uconn but they had a delay at the airport and consequently that really affected this team's preparation for that game not to mention that Uconn is a solid team this year. I look for the Bearcats to be fired up for this game, they do have revenge of course and nearly beat Pitt twice this seaso including on the road even if Pitt had revenge of their own from the previous loss earlier this year, Pitt has not been dominant on the road such as barely winning at 'Cuse, West Virginia, Marquette, Uconn and Notre Dame. Is Cincy as good as those teams I just mentioned, no. But, they have had success against Pitt both times they played them at home and on the road and come off the worst loss in the school's history in the conference play if I am not mistaken. They should be fired up today.
Dayton -5.5
This is the game that goes off at Noon eastern today so which is roughly an hour and a half from now and and one of the first games that I put up realizing that it goes off early. Look Dayton is a top 60 team, a very good team that has beat St. Louis by scores of 63-36 and that was after beating them 68-57 earlier in the year. Let me take you into the psyche of this St. Louis team. This is the same team that scored 20 points at George Washington for the game, although they made me look silly when they beat St. Josephs on the road recently. But, after that game this team lost to St. Bonny a top 250 team at home by 20 points and then one would expect them to bounce-back but they then went on the road to get drilled by Duqunsne by 27 points. So, if this team did have some heart it would have been in that game. I think Dayton comes out playing well today as they come in winning thier last 3 ballgames including a 12 point win over St. Josephs who is a top 60 team recently and their previous successes will bode well for them as I believe they will do very well here and their offense is more consistent than St. Louis as well. Go Flyers!
