Trying to follow up 3-0

A quality 3-0 Saturday has us feeling pretty good today so let’s do it again. Have a nasty 87.9 percent system in the MAC tourney. In the Sun Belt, this team has yet to cover as a dog and Kendall had a solid Saturday and goes ACC huntin’ today with Best Bet. Good Luck

What I’m thinking today – Does North Carolina ever stink!

Free Basketball System -1) Play Against home underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points like Ball State, who are average three-point shooting team (32-36.5 percent), against a good three-point defense (32 percent or less), after two straight games making 37 percent of their shots or less. This system registers at 87.9 percent, with 29-4 ATS record.

Free Basketball Trend - 2) Denver U. is 0-9 ATS as an underdog this season, losing by nine points per game.

Free Basketball Pick -3) Kendall’s is 22-10 this week and had winner here yesterday. He’s bangin’ Wake Forest as a short home favorite for top play.

Bound for Glory Tuesday

After a couple of desultory days, got back to work with 3-0 Monday. For Tuesday have a sharp Top Trend in the NBA out West. Paul Buck is heating up in the NBA and has what he hopes is another winner for you today. Top quality systems are scarce today, however found one that is good just not up to out 80 percent standards. Good Luck

What I found today – Dallas opened as eight-point favorites against Milwaukee; however several sportsbooks have dropped the Mavs to 6.5-point faves with their 5-15 ATS home record. NBA bettors also haven’t been to keen on Warriors and Kings 221 total in Sacramento and most reporting stations have this one falling to 219.5.

Minnesota is off gut-wrenching one-point loss to Michigan State, nevertheless with its tremendous defense and long history of success at “The Barn”, the action has been on the Golden Gophers taking them from 10-point home favorites to 12 or 12.5.

In the ACC, the Miami and Maryland matchup has drawn the attention of total players, taking this one from opening 153.5 to 156 by afternoon to those East of the Mississippi River. Just the opposite of West Virginia at DePaul, as college hoops aficionados wonder who will score for the Blue Demons behind Will Walker, dropping the total from 126 to 122.5 at a few wagering outlets.

On the ice, despite losing four of last five, the Red Wings are a public betting favorite and have gone from -160 to -175 on the money, getting ready to host Phoenix. Maybe having won seven straight at “The Joe” over the Coyotes is influencing backers.

Free Basketball System -1) Play Against home teams like Ball State where the line is +3 to -3 off a cover where the team lost straight up as an underdog, with a winning percentage of between 40-49 percent on the season. This decent system is 57-20 ATS, 74 percent the last five years.

Free Basketball Trend -2) Golden State is 2-12 ATS in road games after scoring 60 points or more in the first half last contest, losing by 12.7 points per game.

Free Basketball Pick -3) Paul Buck had a winner last night and has won eight of his last 10 NBA plays and likes Milwaukee to cover the seven at Dallas.

Don't blame us for Ball State and Western Michigan

For most of the season, the Broncos defense has been a liability allowing 28 points per game and ranking 107th in total defense, surrendering 437.3 yards per game. Ten days ago the defense as a group stepped up and forced six turnovers against Eastern Michigan and won handily 35-13 as 13-point favorites. They will attempt to generate the same kind of pressure and hard hitting against Ball State on ESPN2 MAC contest.

Western Michigan (5-6, 3-8 ATS) players after a long season, seem to understand finally what is needed. “I felt things pick up right from the beginning,” Broncos safety Jamail Berry said. “We just came out with the emphasis (that) we need turnovers. Anything’s possible from the D-line all the way back to the secondary. That’s just what we tried to do.”


The Broncos have not been a good cover team the last few years, sporting a 10-22 ATS record. Quarterback Tim Hiller has 98 career touchdown passes and two more ties the MAC’s all-time record and a victory keeps a glimmer of hope for a bowl invite at 6-6.

Ball State (1-10, 5-6 ATS) fell off the planet this season after playing in the conference championship game a season ago. The Cardinals suffered extensive losses on offense and it showed, averaging 18.9 points per game.

They also lost their coach Brady Hoke, who maybe knew what he was doing in getting out and taking San Diego State head job. Ball State made a curious hire in naming Stan Parrish as head coach. Though his credentials as assistant are excellent, coming into this position his record was 2-31-1 and has kept along same career path. After being blasted by Central Michigan 35-3 in final home game and passing for 105 yards, Ball State is 17-6 ATS after gaining 125 or less passing yards in last their game.

Bookmaker.com has Western Michigan as 11-point favorites with total 51.5 and the Broncos are 12-5 ATS in home season finales. Ball State is 9-1 ATS as a road underdog over the last three seasons.

This utterly fascinating (really?) MAC matchup begins at 7:00 Eastern and Ball State is 6-2 SU and ATS in last eight meetings.

Time for a MAC Attack

For weekday college football, it’s been all Mid-American Conference all the time this month and this continues on Hump Day with a two more tilts. Central Michigan is trying to win the league championship for a third time in four years and takes another step closer with a victory over Ball State. Miami-O tries to end dismal season on a positive, hosting Buffalo in the other MAC matchup.

Central Michigan at Ball State 8:00E ESPN2

The Chippewas held serve in blowout win over Toledo 56-28 last week and will try to do the same at Ball State. Central Michigan (8-2, 7-2 ATS) forced five turnovers and quarterback Dan LeFevour threw for 341 yards showing exactly why they are unbeaten (5-1 ATS) in conference play. The Chippewas have big game with Northern Illinois next and are 9-1 ATS before they play them.

Ball State (1-9, 5-4 ATS) just finished with the Huskies, losing 26-20 and is on short week for final home game. The Cardinals are 12-2 ATS in home games having lost two out of their last three games.

It’s been a long season for the Cardinals and with Central Michigan averaging 33.1 points per game, the Ball State is going to have to step up as the Cardinals are 24-49 ATS when they allow 28 or more points since 1992.

DiamondSportsbook.com has the Chippewas favored by -15 and the home team is 1-4 ATS in last five meetings; however Ball State is 5-2 ATS in last contest at Scheumann Stadium.

Buffalo at Miami-O 6:00E ESPNU

The whole televised deal hasn’t worked out for Buffalo (3-7, 4-6 ATS), losing last two games by on total of four points on the world wide leader’s family of networks. The Bulls offense moves the ball, but doesn’t always finish drives properly; accounting for the fact they average 23.8 points per game against opponents that have allowed 26.1.

Miami-O (1-10, 5-6 ATS) has had forgettable season and will try and send seniors out with one last blast of glory. The RedHawks problems are easily definable, -23 turnover margin. About the only positive is redshirt freshman QB Zac Dysert’s play. He too has thrown enough interceptions that a meager Miami defense cannot overcome. They are 2-10 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record over the last three seasons.

Buffalo is a 3.5-point favorite and is 11-2 ATS against teams with a turnover margin of -1 per game or worse.

Huge Spread Flip in GMAC Bowl

This almost was the fourth matchup of conference champions during the bowl season, but Tulsa and Ball State lost in the championship games. For each team, this is a redemption game, wanting to prove they were as good as they played during the regular year and finish on a positive note. This contest should help Ball State 12-1 (8-3-1 ATS), trying to win a bowl for the first time after four failures. The Cardinals have covered 23 of last 34 games. Tulsa (10-3, 7-5-1 ATS) limited East Carolina to just 278 yards, but the seven turnovers cost them the C-USA title. The Golden Hurricane is just 2-9 ATS in road games after the first month of the season the last couple of years and will be seeking to improve on 6-9 and 4-2 ATS bowl record.

Why to Watch and Wager

There should be no shortage of points and oddsmakers are backing up that point with a total of 75. Ball State quarterback Nate Davis was the star of stars in the MAC this season, passing for 26 touchdowns and 3,446 yards, leading an offense that averaged 459.4 yards per game and among the best in the country in throwing for 9.2 yards per attempt. Ball State is 7-2 ATS off a loss and 16-5 against the spread versus teams with winning records.

As good as the Ball State offense has been, they look like a mid-level D-2 team compared to Tulsa. The Golden Hurricane was second in the country in total offense with 565 yards per game. This is not a one dimensional offense either, rushing for 254.8 yards per game, which compliments David Johnson pass attack that averaged 310.2 YPG in constant hurry-up mode. Tulsa has excellent wide receivers that were part of countless big plays with 10.2 yards gained per pass attempt.

The Golden Hurricane is just 3-8 ATS against teams with winning records, in part because their defense is ordinary, even by C-USA standards in allowing 29.1 points per game. Conversely, Ball State surrendered 18.6 PPG against teams with similar power ratings; however the Cardinals will be without their head coach of six seasons Brady Hoke, who moved west to San Diego State.

Bettors of the GMAC Bowl are ignoring the negatives about Tulsa and moved them 2.5-point underdogs to 2.5-point favorites at Bookmaker.com. Ball State 7-2 ATS as an underdog. GMAC favorites have won and covered last six encounters, with average margin of victory 30 points.

Wagering Tips for Friday Dec. 6

A .500 day for Thursday left us thirsting for more and we’ll try and find it with a NBA system that is 82.1 percent. Also in the NBA, we follow the exploits of the Detroit Pistons who thrive this month in recent years. Good Luck.

Free Basketball System-1) PLAY AGAINST home favorites after being beaten by the spread by 24 or more points total in their last three games against opponent after being beaten by the spread by 30 or more points total in their last three games. In this case we are looking to play against Utah, who could be on the short end of system that has won 23 of 28 times the last five years.

Free Basketball Trend -2) The Detroit Pistons are 17-1 ATS in December the last few years.

Free Football Selection -3) From the Left Coast Connection, we have 11 on Ball State, 4 on Buffalo and 7 on the Over in tonight MAC title game.

Pre-Thanksgiving Wagering Info and Insight

I guess a new coach is all the Washington Wizards needed in order to turn, of course the always stellar Golden State defense contributed, as our best system went down. The best trend baled us out for 1-1 day officially and we have another impressive Top Trend, this one on the ice. Our Top System play takes college basketball bettors to Hawaii, looking at the total and two teams playing one another both qualify for the same system that is 87.5 percent. Good Luck.

Patience can be a virtue if you can wait it out. I mentioned last week about not getting hooked by the hook on key numbers. Yesterday, Ball State was -10.5 and I liked them for a 2* play (see below how to get these plays), but was not going to put myself into position to lose by half point. Instead, I saw the a numbers of handicappers were giving out Western Michigan and waited until about an hour before kickoff to grab a -10. As it turns out I didn’t need it, but it was comforting knowing I had a push instead of loss on the right number.

Free Basketball System-1) PLAY UNDER on neutral court games, involving teams where the total is greater than or equal to 160 after scoring 75 points or more two straight games. This system is 28-4, 87.5 percent, including 4-0 this season. As luck would have it, Maui finalists Notre Dame and North Carolina both fit this system.

Free Hockey Trend -2) The San Jose Sharks are 11-1 on the money line at home this season and have defeated Chicago Blackhawks nine in a row.

Free Basketball Selection -3) This play is official, eight LLC members are on Purdue tonight.

This Tuesday is about Betting Opportunity

A 1-2 Monday leaves a bad taste in the mouth, as Alabama showed a complete lack of courage in the face of adversity in being drubbed by Oregon. I would be real careful playing the Crimson Tide in hoops for the foreseeable future. We think we have the right elixir to cleanse ourselves from yesterday ,with a prefect trend in the NBA and 95.6 percent professional basketball system. The LLC has interesting look at tonight's big college football contest. Good Luck.

Free Basketball System-1) PLAY ON road teams like Golden State. Who are good offensive teams scoring 103 or more points a game on the season, after trailing in their previous game by 15 or more points at the half. This system is nearly airtight at 22-1 ATS the last three years.

Free Basketball Trend -2) The New Jersey Nets 0-9 ATS as an underdog of 10 or more points over the last two seasons.

Free Football Selection -3) We have a 50-50 split on tonight's Western Michigan-Ball State matchup. It is noted all the Left Coast Connection players with better CFB records are riding the Broncos with the +10.5.

Thursday Nov. 20 - Free Plays and Sobering Lesson

It’s an oddity to report, but all 13 members of the Left Coast Connection got a Push on Ball State’s win last night. Though I consider myself a good handicapper, I’m prone to the occasional lapses in wagering judgment. I liked Central Michigan last night and made the silly mistake of betting them at +6.5. Coming off a key number like seven is, well stupid, unless it works in my favor going to +7.5. Because I’ve done quite well in football overall, I got careless and took a loss that I never should. It’s best to learn from your mistakes, I just did.

We have a very good system working tonight in college basketball, involving in-state rivals which has been correct 81.6 percent since 1997. Our perfect trend was a winner last night and today we have TWO in college hoops, both Big 10 (11) teams. Good Luck.

Free Basketball System-1) PLAY AGAINST road underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points like Tulsa, in the first five games of the season, non-tournament team from last season who won 4 or more of their last five contests, in a game involving two teams that had winning records last season. That’s a lot to digest, what isn’t so hard to comprehend is 27-6 ATS record over the 11 seasons.

Free Basketball Trends -2) Take your pick, the Michigan Wolverines are 0-10 ATS after two consecutive non-conference games and Illinois is 0-9 ATS after a win by 10 points or more.

Free Basketball Selection -3) Most guys are passing on the football tonight and honestly, nobody is killing the NBA to start the year, but four LLC members like the Lakers to cover the spread.

Wednesday Betting Information

A peculiar 1-1-1 day as Tennessee pushed at home with line moving up to -27. I was pleased to be on Florida State and escaped by a single point. The Washington Generals couldn’t beat the Harlem Globetrotters, sorry Miami Heat as expected. We have a perfect Trend loaded for reasoning in the NBA this evening. No great systems available today, thus will look to college football on Saturday with TWO plays out an 81.8 percent system. Also, the LCC checks in on tonight's important college football game.Good Luck.

Thursday's Top Wagering Information

Officially a 1-2 day, though certain many of you got a push with San Antonio unless you wagered about 2.5 hours or less before game time. The Top System was a winner and delves into the latter season NFL games on Thursday night with an 82.3 percent system. Had never seen so many Left Coast Connection players be so wrong on a game like NIU/Ball State (count me among the fools) we’ll see what they have to offer. Today’s Top Trend has a dandy in the world of hockey. Good Luck.

Free Football System-1) PLAY ON favorites like the Cleveland Browns that off a home loss, in weeks 10 through 13. This system is 14-3 ATS, 82.3 percent the last three years, with average margin of victory 8.8 points a game.

Free Hockey Trend -2) The Vancouver Canucks are 11-1 against the money line off a win by four or more goals.

Free Football Selection 3) – Greg of the LLC was the only guy from the group on Ball State last night and is playing Utah tonight. His logic consists of taking the pointspread and making it a neutral field matchup. Last night, the line showed him Ball State would have been 6.5 point favorite on a neutral field by the line (-9.5 minus 3 for home field = -6.5) and he had them as nine points better, plus the home field. Tonight using the same logic, Utah has a four point home advantage, meaning TCU is six points better than Utah (take away home field and add two points for spread) and he has TCU only three points better and Utah has home field edge.

Paul Buck had a great call on Dallas last night in our only play and the Left Coast Connection feels very strongly about a play in college football tonight. The San Antonio Spurs might have been losers last night, will in continue, read the Top Trend. Found a very good System in the NBA concerning Oklahoma City which is 25-4, 86.2 percent.

Good Luck.
