PSP Data Driven 5* St. Peter's.

At Professionalsportspicks we see a future where those handicapping sports without advanced analytics and data-driven strategies will be left behind. Our data-driven picks use data integration, search and discovery, and knowledge management along with collaboration with our in-house handicappers. By isolating relevant trends, removing human bias, and targeting only lines with a positive expected value above a certain threshold, our data-driven picks promise to outperform any and all human competitors.

Our models suggest that the value is on the favorite. Saint Peter's is 8-1 ATS in its last 9 games. Saint Peter's is 5-0 ATS in its last 5 games at home.

NCAA-B | Central Connecticut State vs Mercyhurst
Play on: UNDER 135½ -115

*Free Play Under* Central Connecticut State has shot a ridiculously high percentage so far this year. They have several guys who are shooting far above their career averages. This is a team that has typically been defense first. They are still solid on defense, and I think their shooting numbers likely regress over time.

Mercyhurst ranks dead last in the nation in average possession length. They are moving as slowly as possible. They are averaging using 21 seconds of the 30 second shot clock. They'll do their best to bring this game down to a crawl.

Take the under here.

(5-1 last 6 CBB plays. One CBB and one NBA play are up for Monday afternoon!)

NCAA-B | Central Connecticut State vs Mercyhurst
Play on: Mercyhurst -1½ -115 at PlayMGM

Monday CBB Free play. My selection is on Mercyhurst minus the points over Central Connecticut State at 2 pm et on Monday.

Central Connecticut State enters this game on a tear, having won four games in a row SU and five straight ATS. It checks in off an otherworldly shooting performance (30-of-50 from the field) in Saturday's win at Saint Francis (PA) and will look to wrap up a perfect three-game road trip on Monday. I think it will be in tough, however. Note that the Blue Devils have enjoyed incredible offensive success considering the shot volume hasn't always been there. They've gotten off 54 or fewer field goal attempts in four of their last five games. I think they do run into a tough opponent here with Mercyhurst having held four straight and seven of its last 10 foes to 25 or fewer made field goals. On the flip side, Mercyhurst figures to get its share of scoring opportunities, noting that CCSU has allowed three straight and five of its last six opponents to hoist up 60+ field goal attempts. Mercyhurst figures to be in a foul mood following Saturday's 'upset' loss at home (in overtime) against Stonehill. While certainly not prolific offensively, the Lakers have been reasonably consistent, connecting on 25, 33, 23, 25, 25, 24 and 24 field goals over their last seven contests. Finally, we'll note that while CCSU owns the better overall record in this matchup this season, Mercyhurst has faced the slightly more difficult schedule by most metrics. Take Mercyhurst.

NCAA-B | McNeese State vs Texas A&M Corpus Christi
Play on: Texas A&M Corpus Christi +8½ -110 at circa

Corpus Christi +8.5

Texas A&M- Corpus Christi is the move in this one. They have won back to back games and 5 of their last 6 overall. They’ve caught fire thanks in large part to their defensive efforts. They gave up just 50 and 56 points in their latest two wins as they just play with such high intensity. They will also slow this game down on the offensive side which has really frustrated opponents and not let them get into any rhythm. This is too many points in this spot. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on CCA&M. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray

NCAA-B | George Washington vs George Mason
Play on: George Washington +2 -110 at Buckeye

 

"Luck Factor" quantifies how much better or worse a team performs due to random, unpredictable events (like turnovers, lucky bounces, or missed kicks in football) versus consistent skill, using statistical models that compare expected outcomes (based on play-by-play data) to actual results, essentially showing if a team is "due" for positive or negative regression by filtering out controllable elements from their overall performance. 

We take the luck factor gap based on real wins versus what advanced analytics says the wins they should have. If for example, one team has three more lucky wins than their record and their opponents has three fewer, the luck gap would be 6. 

Metrics say George Washington should have 2.1 more wins, with Mason 2.9 more losses, a gap of 5 saying GW is very undervalued in this situation. 

POSTSEASON DOMINATION CONTINUES

Football now 106-82, highlighted by a 9-1 run on College Football Playoff sides.
Another side winner on Indiana–Miami caps complete postseason control.

The focus shifts to the hardwood.

NCAA-B | George Washington vs George Mason
Play on: George Mason -2 -108 at Jazz

This is a play on the GEORGE MASON PATRIOTS for our Monday Free Play. We are looking at the Battle of the Georges as George Washington heads to Fairfax Virginia to take on rival George Mason. The Patriots are 17-1 including a 5-0 record in the Atlantic Ten Conference and that only loss came on the road at Virginia Tech six weeks ago. Following a road win at Loyola-Chicago, they are back home where they are 12-0 and 44-5 at EagleBank over the last three seasons. George Washington is coming off a loss which could be a play on rebound spot but not here. The Revolutionaries are 12-6 including 3-2 in the conference with the other loss on the road at Richmond and while the offense is potent, the defense is not. George Washington has allowed 79 points or more nine times and that is pretty important as George Mason is 26-0 over the last three seasons when scoring 80 or more points and while it can be arbitrary considering if teams score 80 points they are likely going to win but the matchups sometimes do not dictate that but this one does. George Mason is 26-4 in its last 30 games as a favorite, winning by an average of 10.5 ppg. Play (876) George Mason Patriots

NHL | Sharks vs Panthers
Play on: Sharks +1½ -150 at circa

Ricky's 1* play on SJ.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Panthers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games.

- The Sharks are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games.

- The Sharks are 4-1 ATS in their last home games.

Verdict: The value is on the road underdog.

NCAA-F | Miami-FL vs Indiana
Play on: UNDER 47½ -108

For my best free pick on the board here for Monday I am looking at the Miami Hurricanes and the Indiana Hoosiers. Big time teams squaring off here and novice bettors who don’t normally bet on games will be betting this game and the over is something they naturally gravitate too. Total opened up at 48.5 for this game and is now sitting at 47.5 despite some massive betting coming in on the over. Books are defiantly confident with their position on this game so I think I am going to ride the under. Miami strength as a team is on the defensive side of the ball. Look for a very low scoring first half on Monday as both teams fell each other out. 

Play on the UNDER in the Miami and Indiana game
