CKO CONFIDENTIAL KICK-OFF

10 *CHICAGO over Green Bay
Late Score Forecast:*CHICAGO 31 - Green Bay 16
(Monday, December 22)

After a mid-season burst of promise, Green Bay—the defending NFC North champs—saw its campaign slide downhill, due mostly to a declining defense (speedy MLB Nick Barnett out) and lack of a pass rush, which, of course, is crucial in these pass-happy days of the NFL. Now, stalwart RT Mark Tauscher is also gone, and the offense (just 37 total points the last two weeks) has also turned inconsistent. Meanwhile, Chicago is hot on the heels of the Vikings in the North, and HC Lovie Smith (6-3 vs. G.B.) puts special emphasis on every game vs. the rival Packers.

CONFIDENTIAL TIP-OFF BASKETBALL

Monday, Dec. 22
CREIGHTON over Fresno State (at Las Vegas)...There are some intriguing new faces on Fresno’s roster (such as 6-7 frosh dunkmeister
George & 6-4 Arizona State transfer Seay), but Bulldogs still very much a work in progress for HC Cleveland, with eight newcomers and just
one returning starter from last season on hand. Big experience edge to Creighton and its versatile, veteran backcourt that appears back in
sync after HC Altman and LY’s MVC Frosh of the Year PG Stinnett (benched recently) patched up their differences. Note Bluejay Gs
Woodfox & Korver both hitting better than 50% beyond arc! CREIGHTON 77 - Fresno State 57 RATING - 10

CHICAGO (-5) Green Bay (42) 7:35 PM
This NFC North clash still has significant meaning and the Packers would love to knock the Bears out of the playoffs despite a horribly
disappointing season and a four-game losing streak. Chicago was very fortunate to win last week and the defense has not lived up to
expectations this season. Green Bay dominated the Bears earlier this season and could win again in this match-up. PACKERS BY 3

MARC LAWERENCE PLAYBOOK

CHICAGO over Green Bay by 7
Another Monday night division tilt fi nds one team streaking to the playoff
wire against another that’s pulled a hamstring. The Bears fi gure to benefi t
from last week’s home overtime win against the Saints as home teams off a
Thursday home win have responded with aplomb, going 14-6-1 ATS. Green
Bay’s 1-4 ATS mark on the Monday night road is a major concern for Packer
backers, too. Look for Chicago to avenge its worse loss in this series since
1994 as the Cheeseheads’ fondue fi nish does them in again.

THE GOLD SHEET

MONDAY, DECEMBER 22

*CHICAGO 30 - Green Bay 17—When Lovie Smith took over Chicago in
2004, one of his top goals was to end the recent domination of the Bears by their arch-rivals in Green Bay. He has mostly succeeded, going 6-3 SU (5-3-1 vs. the spread). But Smith says his team was humiliated in its first meeting TY, so look for nothing less than an ultra-fierce effort as Chicago fights to make the postseason. With Kyle Orton stabilizing the passing game, Matt Forte (1115 YR, 58 recs.) pounding overland, and the Packer defense caving, Lovie gets his
revenge. CABLE TV—ESPN (08-G. BAY 37-Chi. 3...G.24-9 G.38/200 C.20/83 G.23/30/1/227 C.17/33/0/156 G.0 C.1) (07-Chi. 27-G. BAY 20...G.18-16 G.22/121 C.33/82 G.29/40/2/318 C.15/25/1/203 C.0 G.3)

Big Al Mcmordie

Game: Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears Dec 8:35PM
Prediction: Green Bay Packers
Reason: At 8:35 pm, our member selection is on the Green Bay Packers plus the points over Chicago. The Bears must win to make the playoffs, but as I discussed yesterday in my analysis of the Jets/Seahawks game, just because a team "needs to win" doesn't mean that it will. And, in actuality, it usually doesn't cover the spread. We saw that phenomenon in the Seahawks' upset of the Jets, as well as in the Bills' upset of the Broncos on Sunday. Don't be surprised if the Green Bay Packers step up and defeat their hated rivals at Soldier Field tonight. Take the points.

Carlo Campanella

Game: Marquette at N.C. State Dec 22 2008 7:00PM
Prediction: Marquette
Reason: NC State is 7-1 SU, including 6-0 at home and has home court advantage on Monday night, but still finds themselves in the home Dog role against 9-2 Marquette. Not biting with this home Dog as we find NC State at 0-7 ATS hosting Big East teams since 1997! Without covering in this Situation the past 10 years, we'll lay the small number with a Marquette squad that's won 4 of their last 5 games and averaging a very solid 83 points per game this year.

7* Play On Marquette



Scott Spreitzer
Game: Wake Forest at East Carolina Dec 22 2008 7:00PM
Prediction: Wake Forest
Reason: I'm playing Wake Forest, minus points over East Carolina. I went against these Pirates a few days ago and cashed with NC State. The Wolfpack closed the deal in late fashion, but I expect the Demon Deacons to have little trouble starting much earlier in this one. The Pirates have built their 8-2 record against some serious creampuffs. The best thing about this matchup is that ECU will look to play an uptempo style, which plays right into the hands of the high-scoring Deacs. Wake is averaging 83.6 ppg, but even in games where the opponent has tried to slow things down, the ACC entry has rolled to big wins. Winston-Salem and Wright State both forced a deliberate pace, yet WF won by 31 and 13 points, respectively. No less than six players are averaging between 7.7 and 19.6 ppg for coach Dino Gaudio. Five of those players are scoring in double-figures, led by Jeff Teague. That spells trouble for ECU. The Pirates biggest problems last season came on the defensive end and in the rebounding department. They have really played just two, somewhat, "step-up" games during their 8-2 start, losing to George Mason and NC State. The Pirates allowed too many second chance points against the Patriots, and couldn't stay with the Wolfpack on the defensive end, allowing NC State to hit 52% of their shots. Most preseason predictions had the Pirates finishing 11th in Conf-USA, just ahead of Rice. While that may be a couple of spots too low, I don't believe it's too far off. The defense just hasn't proven it can hang with a scoring unit like Wake Forest. Finally, the Pirates are 1-2 ATS this season, and 10-24 ATS the last 34 times against winning teams. And, they're 0-2 this season, and 2-12 ATS the last 14 times against strong defensive teams, those that allow less than 65 ppg. Look for the Demon Deacons to grab the comfortable win and cover on Monday night. Wake Forest, minus points.

NHL
Jimmy The Moose
Game: Pittsburgh Penguins at Buffalo Sabres Dec 22
Prediction: over
Reason: The Penguins have played over the total in 4 straight and in 5 of their last 6 games. In their last 7 games vs. a team with a losing record the over is 6-1. The over is 4-1 in their last 5 vs. Eastern Conference team's. Buffalo has played over the total in 6 of their last 8 games. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. In their last 8 home games vs. a team with a winning road record the over is 7-1. The last 4 meetings between the clubs have played over the total.

Play the over.
