Senior Handicapper Matt Rivers of OffshoreInsiders.com has a free pick Saturday is on DePaul (+12) to Notre Dame.

Reasoning: I was skunked earlier in the week by these same Blue Demons at home against Marquette but once again I will say how I believe DePaul is better than some people believe and at this price I'll back the visitors.

No the Demons aren't good and may actually be the worst team in the Big East but they had the lead in that last game at the half against a pretty good Golden Hurricane squad and have actually been fairly competitive of late including an outright at Rutgers as the 9 1/2 point pup.

Notre Dame has been playing much better ball of late and it all started with the outright victory against then undefeated Syracuse. Mike Bray is a super coach who has done a ton in South Bend but this Fighting Irish team is still not even close to previous teams. Guys like Ben Hansbrough and Luke Harangody among others are long gone and this current version does not really scare me all that much at all. They may be an improved squad but that still doesn't make them a good squad. Tim Abromaitas has been out forever and even if the Irish are 16-8 overall and a rock solid 8-3 in the Big East Notre Dame cannot be such a favorite. These guys play good enough defense to squeak out an underdog victory against a superior side but it's a whole different animal to be able to take an inferior opponent behind the woodshed like this. Some teams just do not have that extra gear and blowout capability and Notre Dame is the epitome of just that.

Cleveland Melvin is good which probably isn't enough to snap the Irish' five game winning streak but for the at times offensively challenged and still mediocre Irish to be laying a dozen plus is just way too much, end of story.

Top expert pick on this game: DePaul

Now to The Canadian Crew with a pick on the Wyoming Cowboys (18-5, 4-3) vs. New Mexico Lobos (19-4, 5-2)

Odds: New Mexico -11

The Wyoming Cowboys are hoping to grab a piece of second place in the Mountain West West by knocking off the red hot New Mexico Lobos. But the Lobos will be looking to add on to their four game winning streak and aren’t likely to go quietly.

New Mexico has been on a serious roll the past couple of weeks since losing back to back games to conference leaders UNLV and San Diegeo State. Since then they’ve been dominating conference foes, outscoring them 302-197 since their current streak began.

Sophomore guard Kendall Williams has proven to be a major factor in the Lobos’ recent wins and is building momentum with each game. Over the course of the last four games he’s been averaging around 13 points and playing very strong. In their 65-49 win over Boise State, he put up a whopping 18 points.

But the Cowboys have proven themselves to be more than able to deal with high powered offenses. They showed off that skill set last Saturday by upsetting the then-#13 UNLV Runnin’ Rebels 68-66. At 80 ppg, UNLV is the ninth top scoring team in college hoops, but were all but silenced by the boys from Laramie.

That effort was led by big night from junior Leonard Washington (13.2 ppg) and senior Francisco Cruz (12.2 ppg). Both men scored 16 points on UNLV and were a big part of holding the Rebels to a 49 shooting percentage; and only 3 of 14 on three-point shots. A similar defensive performance could seriously hobble the Lobos today.

The problem with big wins (and since Wyoming hasn’t beaten a Top 25 team since 2000 this one qualifies as big) is that they’re frequently followed by big let downs. Wyoming has had a few bright moments this season, but mostly they’ve been pretty average on the court.

New Mexico is still very much in the hunt for the MWC title and there’s just too much on the line for them in this outing. Wyoming hasn’t shown that they can play spoiler on a regular basis, so this one should be all Lobos.

If you can still pick this one up -10 or -11, go with New Mexico. Some shops have the Lobos at -12.5 and if they do, take the Cowboys.

The Pick: New Mexico -12.5

Also Captain Vic Duke, the newest weapon in the OffshoreInsiders.com arsenal checks in with Cincinnati (+7) for 2 Units **

Cincinnati/Marquette 3:00: When you play sound defense, crash the boards hard and limit turnovers, you can win on the road. Such be the case for the Bearcats which are a solid 6-1 ATS as a traveler.

Cincinnati also has good scoring balance with four starters in double-digits. Guards: Dixon, Kilpatrick and Wright can score consistently but 6'9" Gates could be a key factor here against a Marquette team with limited big men due to injuries to both of their centers. We'll look for Cincinnati to grit it out here where they've won 3 of the last 4.

Bearcats are 4-1 ATS as a road dog in this spread range. Marquette has had trouble as a home favorite at 3-8-1 ATS and 0-5-1 ATS at home vs a team with a winning road record. The road team in this series is 5-2 ATS and we'll take the touchdown with Cincinnati.

Sports Wagers NHL

N.Y. ISLANDERS +105 over Los Angeles Pinnacle
The Kings play their fifth straight on the road here and in three of those games they scored one goal or less. That's not a good recipe for playing chalk on the road. Their one win on this trip was in Tampa Bay but losses to Carolina and Florida are inexcusable. The Kings’ lack of production and resulting frustration has not been rectified. Defensively, L.A. is one of the best teams in the league, which has been its saving grace. However, when you have to rely on your goaltender to keep coming up big in order to win, it’s an added pressure and it makes it difficult to be slotted in the favourite’s role. The Islanders picked up points in five straight games before losing to the Canadiens in their most recent. They remain a tough out for any opposing team because of their balanced scoring, current run and the suddenly hot goaltending of Evgeni Nabokov. Also note that this game is a 1:00 PM EST start and for the Kings, that's highly unusual. Wrong side favored. Play: N.Y. Islanders +105 (Risking 2 units).

Nashville +140 over BOSTON Pinnacle
1:00 PM EST. The Bruins’ Stanley Cup hangover has occurred much later than expected but it has arrived. Boston has dropped three of its last four games and was outscored 11-1 in the process. That's one goal in three games against Buffalo, Carolina and Buffalo. Now Tim Thomas is being hounded by the media for all his political statements since not showing up at the Whitehouse and instead of letting it fade away, Thomas made more political statements on his Facebook page recently. All this coincides with the Bruins funk and while it may not mean anything, one can't ignore the distractions it has caused and what affect that it's having. Conversely, the Predators are as sound as can be. They're strong defensively, they're scoring goals, they have an outstanding netminder and they rarely endure any prolonged slumps. Nashville had won five straight before losses to Philly and Vancouver in OT and that's nothing to hang one's head over. They've still picked up points in two of their past four games and that includes a 3-1 win over the NHL's hottest team, the St. Louis Blues. The Preds are always a live pup. Against a suddenly fragile B's club, the Preds offer up some strong value here. Play: Nashville +140 (Risking 2 units).

Chicago +101 over PHOENIX Pinnacle
This selection has nothing to do with the “due” factor as that is an angle we don't subscribe to. It has everything to do with the Blackhawks being a high quality club that has to be sick of losing. The Blackhawks’ annual prolonged trip is turning into a nightmare after losing in San Jose 5-3 last night and running their streak to seven straight losses. A game against the Coyotes couldn't have come at a better time. Playing in Phoenix is like playing in a mausoleum. There's no atmosphere whatsoever, as the building is three-quarters empty and it's demoralizing for a host club to endure that. Phoenix has won four in a row but we're not buying it for a second. They didn't outplay any of those clubs but instead got very lucky in wins over Detroit, Calgary, Dallas and San Jose. That has their stock inflated. Now the Coyotes will host a ravenous beast that hasn't eaten in almost three weeks. The superior club digs down deep here. Play: Chicago +101 (Risking 2 units).

Montreal +129 over TORONTO Pinnacle
The Canadiens are playing better than they have all season with three straight wins over Winnipeg, Pittsburgh and the Islanders. They also had a strong showing in a 5-3 loss in New Jersey prior to that but the Devils had four of the most bizarre goals in one game that you'll ever see. The real kicker here is that the Maple Leafs will retire Mats Sundin's jersey tonight. This is an angle we love. The host will stand around for 45 minutes on their own blue line while the Habs will be sitting in the dressing room getting properly prepared. These ceremonies look nice for TV and all but they are a big hindrance to the host. Along with everything else, there is Ron Wilson's stubbornness to go with the lesser James Reimer in net over Jonas Gustavsson. Reimer has been inconsistent and can look shaky in net while Gustavsson's form is sharp. Carey Price is among the best and is playing like it. Toronto has dropped two straight and can feel the pressure of hanging onto that final playoff spot. Current form and goaltending edge both go to the Canadiens. Play: Montreal +129 (Risking 2 units).

Kentucky Wildcats vs. Vanderbilt Commodores
The Kentucky Wildcats (24-1, 9-14-1 ATS) will look to continue their recent onslaught of SEC opponents Saturday night when they travel to Nashville to take on the Vanderbilt Commodores (17-7, 10-10 ATS) in ESPNs game of the night; tune in at 9:00 ET to take this one in live!

Only six games stand in the way of Kentucky going through its SEC schedule unscathed. The Wildcats improved to a perfect 10-0 SU within the conference on Tuesday night after taking the 7th ranked Florida Gators out behind the woodshed and serving up a good old fashioned southern beating. The most impressive aspect taken away from that game was certainly the ease in which KYs defense shut down Floridas sharpshooters. The Gators are one of the best shooting teams in the country both from two and three-point range, but the Wildcats limited them to a paltry 34.9 percent conversion rate from the field which included a woeful 6-of-27 effort from beyond the arc. Frosh sensation Anthony Davis once again made a huge impact scoring 16 points while swatting away four shots and collecting six rebounds. Kentucky is allowing an average of just 57.7 PPG and possesses the nations top FG percentage defense (35.8%). Theyve won five of their six true road games (3-3 ATS) to date and will be playing on a five-game ATS winning streak.

Its been a tale of two seasons for the experienced Commodores in 2011-12 pre and post Festus Ezeli. Without the big man in the line-up, Head Coach Kevin Stallings kids went 5-3 SU & 3-3 ATS in their six lined games. With him back clogging the paint, the Dores have gone 12-4 SU & 7-7 versus the closing pointspread. Most recently, Vanderbilt put an end to its two-game SU & three-game ATS losing streak by defeating LSU at home 76-61 as 11-point home favorites. Ezeli and John Jenkins were simply sensational combining to score 41 of the teams 76 point output, with guard Jeffery Taylor putting forth the most complete stat line with 19 points, two steals, two assists, and six rebounds. The win moved the Commodores to 11-4 SU but just 4-7 ATS as a host on the year. For Vanderbilt to have any shot of competing in this one, the defense is going to have to force turnovers and the offense is going to have to limit turnovers and take high quality shots. This game will mark just the third time theyve been dogged in SEC play (1-1 SU & ATS), and first at home.

These conference rivals split their two meetings a year ago with Vanderbilt winning 81-77 as one-point home underdogs in the first go round and Kentucky squeaking out the 68-66 win as hosts three weeks later; Vandy covered both contests. Kentucky has covered each of its L/5 SEC battles, but has only defeated the oddsmakers at a 2-7-1 ATS clip the L/9 times it opposed a +.600 opponent. Vanderbilt checks in just 8-20 ATS its L/28 match-ups against +.500 road teams, but is also 4-1 SU & ATS the L/5 times it was dogged by six-points or less.


PICK: Kentucky -PTS
