          Kansas -33
          Kansas is not afraid to run up the score at home, they love pouring it on... if they can beat a pretty solid team like Ohio by 37, and a decent mid-major like Northern Arizona by 41, then I have no doubt they will beat Loyola by 40+... Even if they play their backups and 3rd strings those players are still going to be better than Loyola's and they'll be more inclined to want to score since they dont play as much, thus making it even more of a blowout

          Indiana -9.5
          Just seems a little too obvious, normally I try to stay away from plays that seem so obvious... unless I see the opposing team is 2-10 ATS... so maybe the linesmakers like giving away free money?

            ST. JOHN’S/CONNECTICUT UNDER 143: I WISH I got this line, as I bet this Under at 138.5! St. John’s has been abysmal on the road, averaging just 58.4 points per game on a pathetic 34.4 percent shooting from the floor. As if that is not bad enough, they are only hitting on 18.6 percent of their three-pointers away from home. Sure Connecticut could score, but they are only allowing 59.6 points per game at home defensively, so they will be doing most of the scoring themselves tonight, making it difficult for this game to go Over. Besides, the Under is 11-5 in U-Conn’s last 16 Big East games.

            NEW YORK KNICKS +6.5: Yes, the Knicks are 1-13 on the road and have lost seven straight games SU, but the Bulls have not exactly been world-beaters at home. In fact, they have a losing record of 7-9 SU in their own building, where they are a dismal 5-11 ATS. Chicago escaped with a 94-93 home win over lowly Sacramento on Saturday. They haven’t won consecutive home games in about a month.

              718 Sacramento Kings +4½
              I really think the Kings can win this SU so I'll glady take the points.

              729 Brown +15½
              Way too many points for Baylor to cover, so I'm taking their opponent.

                You've been doing this long enough that you know you need to add analysis.

                  714 Chicago -7
                  They meet up with NY on Dec 30th and won
                  on the road 100-83. Chi looks ready for a repeat.

                  739 Purdue +13.5 Mich St is tough at home but could
                  only hang on last game to win MN by six. 13.5 may be
                  to many points.

                    Let's see if I can get one right. Started off with my first parlay right, then I lost 5 in a row.

                    Siena vs. Fairfield
                    These two teams played on Dec. 7th, 2007 and Siena beat Fairfield by 13 at Fairfield. I like Siena to cover this game now that they are playing at home.

                    Indiana
                    vs. Michigan
                    Indiana has a much better team. This is a TV game and the Indiana players will shine. Crisler arena is not an intimidating place to play.

                    Parlay record 1-5. Parlay game record 6-6.

                      NJ seems to have gotten over the Kidd snafu, Charlotte in a funk
                      Alabama -2

                          Michigan is absolutely terrible... 4 wins, all against crap teams... IU should win by 15+ tonight...

                          Miami Heat -1.5
                          Wade should take this game over and they are the better team here even if they haven't been playing like it...

                          Time to get on the board!

                            MAGIC (-) 4.5
                            Their 15-5 road record, along with the King's injuries, looks like a soggy win on a stormy night in SacTown.

                            MAGIC/KINGS: (UNDER) 197.5
                            With the King's major scorers sidelined, the UNDER is the obvious lean here.

                              Alabama -2 : Got to like the home team in conference play with such a low number.


                              Georgetown -7.5 : Play the best D in hoops and look for them to lock down on the Demons here.

                                  01/08/08: USCFOOTBALL33’s Parlay Of The Day

                                  Man, Can You Smell It? That’s right, we stunk it up the last two days with a 1-1 record both days. Let’s get back on track!

                                  Wake Forest +1.5
                                  Analysis: BYU is just not that good. They haven’t beaten anybody all season except a Louisville team that was banged up at the time and now they have to go and play a tough ACC team on the road in a hostile environment. It’s just not going to happen ladies and gentlemen. Wake Forest is 10-3 right now and that is not that far from BYU’s 11-3. In fact, with Wake Forest’s schedule BYU would not be as good as 11-3 right now. Furthermore, Wake Forest is on a 5 game win streak and is starting to find a groove with three of those wins over solid teams such as Virginia Tech, South Florida, and Air Force. BYU’s last 5 wins? Well, they have all been over bad teams with losing records and every single one of them has been at home, plus there are some losses sprinkled among them. The Demon Deacons will just be to strong tonight and BYU will experience their third loss in their last seven games. Take Wake Forest and the points.

                                  Orlando -4.5
                                  Analysis: Without Martin and Artest, Sacramento is really not that good of a basketball team. Orlando is struggling, but they are still Orlando and they are still 22-13 and at the top of the Southeast. Sacramento? Well they are still a bottom feeder at 12-20 and only 8-8 at home. Meanwhile, Orlando is a dangerous road team at 15-5! Bottomline, even with Orlando’s backcourt problems, this is just too small of a spread for Orlando. Take Orlando to cover the spread.

                                    This team is bigger and faster than these little schools. I've seen them outrebound teams like this by a huge margin. Kansas by 40 no less.

                                    Cavaliers -9
                                    Follow the Cavs and they have little business being favored by 9 in most any case. Although tonight this is a very short line.

                                      I like the way they're playing and feel like they're record should be a lot better than the Sixers right now. Looking to see them start a bit of a run.

                                      NJ -1.5

                                      Once again just like the way they're playing. I'm all about streaks.

                                        Wichita State/Missouri State OVER 121: Hate overs. Hate overs even more in the MVC. But 121? Really? These teams have combined to go under the posted total in 15/21 lined totals this season, which may be partially responsible for the low number, but MSU put up 71 on SIU, then followed that up with a 91-point performance against Bradley. In their 3 meetings a year ago, these schools averaged a combined 149.6 ppg, with each game comfortably clearing tonight's 121-pt. total.

                                        St. Johns/UConn UNDER 143: LT stole my thunder with this one :

                                        I WISH I got this line, as I bet this Under at 138.5! St. John’s has been abysmal on the road, averaging just 58.4 points per game on a pathetic 34.4 percent shooting from the floor. As if that is not bad enough, they are only hitting on 18.6 percent of their three-pointers away from home. Sure Connecticut could score, but they are only allowing 59.6 points per game at home defensively, so they will be doing most of the scoring themselves tonight, making it difficult for this game to go Over. Besides, the Under is 11-5 in U-Conn’s last 16 Big East games.

                                        Only thing I'll add is that Calhoun's teams ALWAYS defend, and St. John's has had a difficult time scoring against the capable defensive squads on their schedule, mainly Miami and VA Tech. UConn's defense, allowing opponents to shoot only 36.3%, is the stingiest unit they've faced to this point, and the Johnnie's young roster should find putting the ball in the basket difficult tonight.

                                          Tonight Philadelphia plays Milwaukee. Milwaukee has struggled as they are just 3-7 in their last 10 games. They are a very bad team on the road going 4-15 straight up. I am playing Philadelphia in this situation.

                                          Utah Jazz -8
                                          Tonight Utah plays Indiana. Utah is 12-3 at home while Indiana is 8-10 on the road. I am showing Utah with a more difficult schedule so far this season ... I am playing the Utah Jazz in this situation.

                                            kings stars are hurt and magic need a win coming of 2 losses. orlando is well rested and is also the better team.

                                            hoosiers/wolverines under 139.5
                                            hoosiers can score high numbers but michigan can't. michigan more likely to keep it low scoring at home. start of big ten usually has a lot of unders.

                                              1* Indiana -9.5 (at Michigan)
                                              Everything points to a blowout. Indiana will outshoot Michigan by about 10% and will outrebound them by about 10 to 20 rebounds. Michigan has been blown out in their last three at home (UCLA, Wisconsin, and Central Michigan), including a loss to Central Michigan by 11 on 12/15. Indiana will do the same to them.

                                              1* DePaul +7.5 (v. Georgetown)
                                              I have been impressed with DePaul in their last two -- their excellent win as dogs over Nova (which cost me) and their win and cover over Providence (which paid me). Georgetown has talent and they win games, but their style of play (the "Princeton Offense" or whatever) does not get them many blowouts, or even covers.

                                                Miami -1 because they are playing the only team playing worse than they are lol

                                                NJ -1.5 Nets are 9-5 on the road and the Bobcats inability to maintain a lead will haunt them yet again, and that's if they ever get the lead

                                                  Miami Heat -1.5 The Timberwolves are the worst team in the NBA and Miami isn't great but they can handle that spread.

                                                  De Paul +7.5 I just like the generous point spread.
