10:00PM: Lakers just played the Grizzlies last week in Memphis and lost by 17 points and now they are a 7.5 point favorite. Mostly due to Ja Morant and Desmond Bane being out for the Grizzlies. I think the Lakers want some quick revenge. There was a decent amount of trash talk and chippyness in that last game between the teams. Not much love between the players here. I think Lakers control this game at home.
9:00PM: One of the good games in the young college basketball season so far. Duke has 2 of the top freshman and have a lot of hype coming into this year. Kentucky basically ran Calipari out of town and hired Mark Pope. Two different types of coaches including how they build a team. Neither team has played a viable opponent yet this year so this should be a good test to see where they are heading into Feast Week.
8:15PM: In the last 4 Rams games, the overs are 1-3. They are due for an over. Since Tua has been back for the Dolphins, they have scored 27 points in both games. Their defense has given up 28 and 30 points in both of those games. Since the Rams have gotten helathy their offense has looked so much better. The overs this weekend have also gone 3-9. Dolphins are desperate for a win and the Rams need to keep pace with the Cardinals in the NFC West. I think a lot of points will be scored tonight.
1:00PM: San Fran is getting healthier with CMC coming back. They are also coming off a bye. Yes they are on the road and almost a touchdown favorite. Niners are 4-4 on the year and still only a game behind in the NFC West. This is prime time to get rolling as they make a big push for the playoffs. Tampa is also coming off an OT game against the Cheifs on Monday Night. A little bit of a rough stretch for the Bucs here playing both Super Bowl teams in back to back weeks.
7:30PM: Alabama is not the Alabama of old. Yes they are coming off a 34-0 win over Missouri but Missouri is not good. Alabama is 1-2 on the road and the 2 road losses were against SEC opponents. Now they go into LSU and Death Valley at night. Ask Ole Miss how that fared for them a couple of weeks ago. LSU is coming off a bye but before that they lost to Texas A&M. In that game they dominated the first half and struggled in the second half. I think a bye week between these 2 big games is huge for them. They do struggle against mobile quarterbacks (see 2nd half against A&M). This is an elimiation game between these 2 teams for the new 12 team playoff. So I’ll take the points with the home team in this game.
7:00PM: Indiana has not won a game this year by more than 7 points. All but 3 games for Charlotte have been decided by single digits. LaMelo Ball has been playing well this season after having a lost season last year. Pacers are having a bit of a hangover to start the year after making an ECF run in the playoffs. I’ll take the points at home for the underdog.
