ANALYSIS
Looking for them to make me some big time money again tonight.
Winners of 5 straight, 8 of 9 and 12 of their last 14, Wisconsin Green Bay Phoenix come home to take on the last team to beat them, Northern Kentucky.
Even better, they are looking to cover for the 13th time in their last 14 games.
All the winning has put them tied at the top of the league all by themselves at 12-3.
Now they take their home floor, where they have won and covered all 6 conference games, winning every single one by 8-points or more.
They closed out December beating Wright State 88-77 catching 7 1/2 and Robert Morris 78-61 laying 3 followed by a blowout win over Cleveland State 79-71.
As a 3-point dog they took care of Oakland 69-59, as an 11 1/2 point favorite crushed Detroit 78-64 and laying 12 killed Indiana Purdue 79-56.
For the season in front of the home folks, they are 10-1 SU and 8-1 ATS.
Bottom line: this team is playing the best ball of anyone in the league.
As for Northern Kentucky, they have been terrible on the road this year in conference play going 1-4 SU with their only win: 0-26 Detroit Mercy.
They lost by 13 at PFW, 3 at Cleveland State, 5 at Oakland and 30 at Youngstown State.
All things considered on the road this year for the season, they stand at 3-10 SU and 5-8 ATS.
I'm sorry folks, but it's clear NKU can't play on the road, especially against the elite of the Horizon league, which is exactly what Green Bay is.
Ride one of the hottest ATS teams in the country and the Phoenix go to 11-1 SU at home and 9-1 ATS with a rock solid win tonight.
Lay the wood with confidence tonight.

LANG PICKS: WISKY GREEN BAY -3 1/2
One down and 3 more to go.
Last night I stepped up with a really juicy home dog with my 50 dimer on Evansville (+8) over Drake and the Aces were in it the whole way.
Having lost the previous meeting at Drake by 49 points, no one gave them a shot at home to keep it close but yours truly stepped up and rolled the dice.
With absolutely spot on analysis, Evansville, having avenged an earlier 36 point loss to Bradley, would keep it close and they most certainly did.
It started with that 50 dime winner last night. It will continue with this Up The Ante 75 dime winner tonight.
Let's go!!!
Another Wire To Wire Up The Ante LOSER for Lang. Keep picking teams you don't know the coach, their nickname, a player on the team or have seen 2 minutes all season of them play. Maybe he needs a bi weekly meeting with all the made up handicappers so they can give him some input leading up the March Madness. In fact I'm willing to offer 10K if he can video a meeting with just 10 of the handicappers and 5 show their driver's license and it matches their name on the BLang.com site. Lang needs money bad so for 10K someone in his predicament would try like hell to set it up if they were real people.

The Pick: My 60 Dime play is on the UCLA Bruins.
The Line: The current line on this game is +1 1/2 in Vegas and offshore as of 12:10 pm EST. Be sure to shop around for the best line available.
ANALYSIS
They are the hottest team in the PAC-12.
Mick Cronin had to replace the same starting 5 he had for the last 2 years, a group that took him to a final four and elite 8.
So you knew there were going to be growing pains, just didn't know how big those pains were going to be.
Well they were huge.
After a non conference schedule found them 5-6, they opened conference play with a nice win at Oregon State 69-62.
Then came the collapse.
We're talking 4 straight losses at Oregon 64-59, home losses to Stanford 59-53 and Cal 66-57 and then came the Titanic sinking: at Utah 90-44.
It was their 8th loss in 9 games.
Cronin said afterwards, "We got our ass kicked every way we could. Coaching, playing, hustling, everything."
Now for most coaches, the season could have gone south after that game, but not for Cronin, who is a much better coach that that.
They proceeded to come home and as a 1-point home dog beat Washington 73-61, followed by the 68-66 win at Arizona St as a 3-point dog.
Up next, +18 1/2 at Arizona and man did they show up jumping out to a 37-28 halftime lead but the Wildcats rallied.
Courtesy of making 22 of 23 free throws in the final 20 minutes, Arizona battled back for the 77-71 win but the easy cover for UCLA.
They haven't lost since with wins at USC 65-60, home wins over Oregon State 71-63 and Oregon 71-63 and then the Northern California sweep over Stanford 82-74 and CAL 61-60.
Don't look now but that is now a 7-1 run SU and ATS.
Now comes the Colorado Buffaloes to Westwood, a team that can't win on the road.
In their 6 true road games this year they are 1-5 SU and ATS with the only win and cover: at Washington 98-81.
They lost at Colorado State by 5, Arizona by 47, Arizona State by 3, at CAL by 4, Washington State by 9 and Utah by 5.
The Buffs are coming off an embarrassing loss at home over Arizona, getting blown out in the 2nd half 99-79.
You just give up close to 100 at home and now you go face the hottest team in the PAC-12?????
Give me the Bruins all night long tonight.

LANG'S PICK: UCLA BRUINS +1 1/2
Well, didn't see that coming.
Wisconsin Green Bay had been so good, so consistent, especially at home, it was shocking to see them play the way they played last night.
Winners of 5 straight, 8 of 9 and 12 of 14. They covered all 6 conference games at home. They were looking to cover for the 13th time in their last 14 games.
Defensively, they were solid again but at home, to lay that kind off egg offensively, the word I use is SHOCKING.
I guess it's safe to say that just don't match up with Northern Kentucky. Simple as that. Might want to file that away come the conference tourney.
Let's move on.
Here is where the College Basketball Run stands:

Trust me when I tell you that number will be over 10 grand if not more by the end of the month.
Trust me on that.
