At 7 pm, our selection is on the Princeton Tigers minus the points over Dartmouth.  The Tigers were upset last night, 78-69, by Harvard.  And that was the 3rd straight loss by Princeton.  However, this losing streak has set up the Tigers in a very good 78-29 ATS system of mine which plays on certain teams on losing streaks.  Even better:  single-digit Ivy League home favorites have cashed 57.4% since 1990 in Saturday games off an upset home loss the night before.  Lay the points with Princeton.  Ivy League Game of the Week.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

Our selection is on the Northern Illinois Huskies over Bowling Green.  The Huskies enter this game off four straight losses, while the Falcons come in off a home win over the CMU Chippewas.  The good news for the Huskies is that they are 24-13 ATS at home off a loss, including 11-3 ATS when not favored by 1.5 or more points.  And Mid-American Conference home favorites (or PK) have cashed 63% since 1990 off 3 SU/ATS losses, if matched up against a Conference opponent off a win.  Finally, the Huskies fall into 33-9 and 40-14 ATS systems of mine which play on certain teams off 4+ losses.  Take Northern Illinois.  MAC Game of the Week.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the San Jose Sharks over Vancouver.  The Canucks edged Los Angeles, 4-3, in overtime on Thursday night.  But the Canucks have won just once in 13 games off an overtime win.  Meanwhile, San Jose was blasted 5-1 here, at home, by the Washington Capitals on Thursday.  However, they're 38-14 off a home loss by more than two goals.  Take San Jose.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Vegas Golden Knights over the Nashville Predators.  After a 6-3 drubbing at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Knights have now lost three straight -- all at home.  If they fall to the Predators tonight it would be their second four-game losing streak in their last 10 games.  But two of the games in that last streak were on the road.  And, in fact, Vegas has never had a four-game home losing streak since they came into the league at the beginning of last season.  Another reason to like the home team tonight is because this is a revenge situation.  The Preds just beat the Knights right here in Las Vegas less than a month ago, 2-1, on January 23.  And Vegas is 16-3 (+14 games on the money line) when playing with revenge from a home defeat.  Finally, the Knights are also 23-6 in their last 29 home games vs. teams with a winning road record (the Preds are 15-14 away from Nashville this season).  Take Vegas.

At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the Columbus Blue Jackets over Chicago. The Blue Jackets lost at home, 4-1, to these Blackhawks in the first meeting between the teams this season.  The good news for Columbus is that it's 8-2 when playing with revenge from a home loss.  It's also 36-20 off a loss by 2+ goals in its previous game.  With the Jackets in off a 3-0 shutout loss to the Islanders, we'll back the road team in this game, tonight.  Take Columbus.

At 2 pm, our selection is on the Marshall Thundering Herd minus the points over Middle Tennessee St.  Earlier this season, Middle Tennessee was winless against the spread until its 13th game of the season, at Rhode Island.  Since then, the Blue Raiders are 9-5 ATS, including 5-0 ATS its last five.  The Thundering Herd, now, are the team on the point spread losing streak, as it has lost its last nine games against the spread.  We'll lay the points with Marshall, as teams off a loss have covered 66.1% since 1990 (and a perfect 8-0 ATS the past 2 years) if they were on a 9-game (or worse) ATS losing streak, and their opponent was off a point spread win.  Take Marshall.  Conference USA Game of the Month.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6 pm, our selection is on the Georgia Bulldogs + the points over LSU.  Georgia has lost its last five games -- both straight-up, and against the spread.  But we'll take the home dog this evening, as SEC Conference teams are a super 60% ATS since 1992 at home in Conference games off 3+ losses when playing with revenge.  With the Bulldogs, indeed, playing with revenge from a 92-82 loss at LSU last month, we'll take the points with Georgia.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 4:30 pm, our selection is on the Pittsburgh Panthers + the points over Virginia Tech.  It's true that the Panthers are on an 8-game SU/ATS losing streak.  But when one looks closely at the eight ATS defeats, they have not been by very many points.  Indeed, Pitt's average ATS defeat over this stretch has been by a mere 3.87 points per game.  So, one can chalk it up largely to randomness, as opposed to poor play.  I love the Panthers here, at home, this afternoon, as they fall into a 69-28 ATS system of mine which plays on certain team on losing streaks.  Pitt is also 12-4 ATS as revenge-minded conference home dogs of +5 or more points, if Pitt was off back to back losses.  And Pitt's 4-1 straight-up its last five home games vs. the Hokies.  Take Pitt.

At 4 pm, our selection is on the West Virginia Mountaineers + the points over Kansas.  The Jayhawks upset TCU, 82-77, in overtime, on the road this past Monday.  Unfortunately for Kansas, it's a horrid 2-17 ATS in its last 19 Big 12 Conference games off a road win.  Take West Virginia.

At 3 pm, our selection is on SIU-Edwardsville over Tennessee-Martin.  On the surface, these two teams are headed in opposite directions, as Edwardsville is off 3 SU/ATS losses, while Tennessee-Martin is off 3 SU/ATS wins.  Interestingly, the Skyhawks find themselves in a Pk-em situation on the road, even though they are 0-12 straight-up, and 2-10 ATS on the road this season!  That doesn't bode well for Tennessee-Martin today.  And neither does the fact that Edwardsville is 5-0 ATS its last five off 3 SU/ATS losses, and also 5-0 ATS its last five vs. opponents off 3 SU/ATS wins.  Take the Cougars.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Valparaiso Crusaders + the points over Drake.  The Crusaders were upset, 87-82, at home on Wednesday, while Drake went into Carbondale, and upset Southern Illinois, 72-69.  Since 1990, Missouri Valley teams off an upset home loss have covered 88% vs. foes off an upset road win, if our 'play-on' team (here, Valparaiso) was playing with revenge from a loss sustained earlier in the season.  With the Crusaders, indeed, playing with revenge from an 11-point loss three weeks ago to Drake, we'll grab the points with Valpo this afternoon.
