Indiana St +8
Too many points in a even matchup type game, and Creighton does not carry the type of homecourt this year they have in the past. Cold weather will keep the locals at bay and a sparse crowd tonight in Omaha for this one. The Blue Jays 4-9-1 ATS at home their last 14. Creighton off an 18 point beat down their last game while Indiana gave Mo Valley big shot Wichita State all they wanted on the road in a 6 point loss, Creighton not near the team the Shockers are. This is too many points. Play 1 Unit on Indiana State

4* PROVIDENCE +4
This line is an absolute JOKE! The red-hot Hoyas smashed Villanova by 13 points on Saturday and the Wildcats are an excellent team – did you catch them winning easily as 6-point dogs last night at West Virginia? Those results tell me the Friars are completely overmatched here. I think Georgetown will FLAY the Friars by double-digits – so your play is on PROVIDENCE.

George Mason +3.5
George Mason hosts the Rams at the Patriot Center in a Colonial Athletic Conference clash with both teams looking to stay within striking distance of first-place Northeastern. The last time these two teams met was in the CAC tourney† when VCU sent the Patriots packing. George Mason enters tonight's fray knowing they are 5-1 ATS in games against opponents off back-to-back wins this season, and 3-0 SU and ATS this season in games off a double-digit loss. With the Rams just 4-11-1 ATS in games after facing Old Dominion when meeting an opponent off a loss, look for the Patriots to get their revenge here tonight. We recommend a 3-unit play on George Mason.
Indiana -1.5
What a difference a couple of months make. When the Chicago came to the United Center in mid-November, the Bulls were sent packing on a six-game road trip. The result? A 1-5 SU and 2-4 ATS record. Now, two months later, Vinny Del Negro’s Bulls have turned into road strongmen – winning and covering the last five of a brutal seven-game west coast swing. As a result of their recent road success comes line value. Chicago also arrives off a same-season revenge win over Miami where they are 1-8 ATS after taking on the Heat, including 0-1 ATS this season. To make matters worse for the visitors, Conseco Fieldhouse has seen the host Pacers win 22 of 25 games SU in this series. Indiana has also kept pace with the Bulls when seeking same-season revenge, posting a solid 12-4 SU and 10-4-2 ATS mark. Indy’s 5-0 ATS log after meeting Milwaukee cements it. We recommend a 3-unit play on Indiana.

Indiana -1
The Bulls started the year as a terrible road team, but were able to win the final five games of a seven-game road trip at the end of last month, covering all those games as well. We're willing to write that off as an aberration as they've since lost at Philly and at Atlanta to fall to 9-17 SU overall away from the United Center this year. They did rally to defeat Miami at home on Saturday, but note that Chicago is just 24-39 ATS off its last 63 home wins. Indiana will be playing with revenge here for a 104-95 loss in the Windy City back in December and note that they are 185-132 ATS when revenging a road loss. This is a totally different team at home than on the road and they've gone 18-8 ATS at Conseco Fieldhouse when off a road loss. The Pacers have won their last two home games by double-digits, including scoring 130 points on the Raptors. For the year, they average 104 PPG at home, which is one of the better averages in the league. Chicago simply lacks that kind of firepower. In fact, they've only scored 100+ points in 13 games this season and average just 94.8 PPG on the road. Perhaps of most interest is the fact that the Pacers have won 17 of 20 home games vs. the Bulls since 1999, their best record here vs. any conference opponent over that time frame. Indiana is our #1 NBA Side of the Week/Central Division Game of the Month.
Illinois St. +1
At least to us, it seems pretty ridiculous that a Bradley team that lost to Illinois State by 19 points just eleven days ago could be favored in the rematch. What the oddsmakers are probably looking at is the "home dominance" that has existed previously in this Missouri Valley Conference rivalry with hosts winning the last seven meetings. However, it's not like the Braves are a good home team this year, going just 2-8 ATS in Peoria, including 1-7 ATS when favored. We can take advantage of the fact that Bradley is coming off what is likely its finest effort of the season, an 83-63 victory over last place Evansville (0-13 SU vs. MVC), a game where the Braves shot 62.5%. However, in their previous road game, which was at ISU, they shot just 28.5%, a season low. Also of note from that game is that the Redbirds grabbed 50 rebounds and were +22 on the boards overall. Before the Evansville game, Bradley's two previous wins were a two-point home victory over a very so-so Drake team and another win vs. the Purple Aces. Illinois State is our CBB Oddsmaker Mismatch.

Here’s the rule of thumb betting pucks, whenever you have two division teams stinking up the joint and can’t find the twain, take the value and play the Dog. When ANY NHL Team played as a home team - Vs Conference Opponent - After a non division game - Total is 5.0 - Coming off a 4 game losing streak - Coming off a Road loss as a Underdog - Coming off 1 under the Home Team is 5-11-1 in this situation since 1996.
Chicago / Indiana Over 205
When ANY NBA Team Played as Road team as a Underdog - Before a non division game - Last 5 years vs. opponent with a 31% to 40% winning % - Coming off a 4-7 point win; the OVER is 11-5-0 for the Road Dog (CHI) in this spot the L5Y. Take the OVER.
