David's NCAAB Free Pick

We really like the underdog in this matchup. The line looks mispriced considering Boston College is coming off back-to-back straight up losses as favorites. The Eagles are 1-4 against the spread laying points, Harvard is undefeated 2-0 ATS as underdogs. 

This is a 1% FREE PLAY on HARVARD on the SPREAD.

This is a FREE PLAY on the OVER Blues/Devils.

As being primarily a situational capper, for the most part I base my Over/Under picks, in every sport, on what I perceive to be really great "situations."

And that's the case here on Wednesday between the Blues and the Devils. 

St. Louis enters just 7-10-6 overall, including 4-5-2 on the road, while New Jersey is 14-7-1, including 8-0-1 at home.

The Blues are just 1-4 in their last five, all five of those games have gone UNDER the number. While it's a trend that dates back to last season, I still think its pertinent to note that St. Louis has seen the total fly OVER the number in five of its last six after playing to five or more straight UNDERs in a row.

The Devils went 1-3 on their most recent road trip, and then returned home to post the 4-3 win over Detroit last time out.

Overall New Jersey is averaging 3.0 goals per game, while allowing 3.0 goals per game, both which rank 19th.

The Blues, on the other hand, are averaging just 2.7 goals per game, which ranks 28th, while conceding 3.6, which ranks 29th.

Jordan Binnington is expected in net for the Blues, and he's 5-5-4 with a 3.13 goals against, while Jacob Markstrom is expected to get the call in net for the Devils, and he's 6-3-1 with a 3.74 GAA.

Neither goaltender has been great. Each has struggled with consistency. With the home side pushing the tempo, I look for this total to fly well OVER the number before the final horn sounds.

Good luck, NP

Ricky's 1* play on BOS.

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 Bruins are 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

- The Bruins are 9-3 in its last 12 games against NY Islanders.

- The Bruins are 8-2 in its last 10 games against an opponent in the Eastern Conference.

Verdict: The value is on the road underdog.

#746 ASA PLAY ON Memphis -10 over Southern Illinois, Wednesday at 8 PM ET - Rough spot here for the Salukis. They played on Sunday & Monday in Florida and now Wednesday in Memphis. 3 games in 4 days and they split beating Delaware, who is 2-4 on the season, and losing to UAB. They have actually been on the road since November 12th playing @ Nevada (loss), @ North Dakota State (loss) and then the 2 neutral site games we discussed above. We wouldn’t be surprised if this team is out of gas. They are going to get a major effort from Memphis in this game as the Tigers have started the season 1-4. They’ve faced the 6th most difficult schedule in the country thus far including losses @ Ole Miss (by 6), vs Purdue (by 4), and vs Wake Forest (by 1 on a last second 3 pointer from the Demon Deacons). The last 2 games listed in that stretch were played last week in the Bahamas and Memphis has had off since Friday. SIU will be the lowest rated team Memphis has faced this season (128th per KenPom), while the 3-3 Salukis haven’t played a team yet this season rated higher than the Tigers. Southern Illinois is one of the worst 3 point shooting teams in the country (24% ranks 348th) and only 13% of their points come from deep (2nd to last in the country). They’ll have to score inside here and they are facing a Memphis D that ranks 56th in defensive efficiency despite playing one of the most difficult schedules in the nation. The Tigers are the much taller team (two 7 footers in the starting line up) which will make it tough for SIU to score inside the arc. This is a must win for Memphis and they have 3 straight home games to make some hay. Let’s lay it.

Wednesday NHL Free play. My selection is on Seattle over Dallas at 10:05 pm et on Wednesday.

The Stars jumped all over the Oilers in Edmonton last night but now they find themselves in a difficult back-to-back situation in Seattle on Wednesday. The Kraken return home off a 1-0 loss on Long Island on Sunday. They're coming off a 2-2 road trip and check in 4-2 over their last six contests. Better still, Seattle has gone 6-1-3 in the friendly confines of Climate Pledge Arena this season. Note that the Kraken will be looking to return the favor against the Stars after Dallas took the first meeting by a 2-1 score on home ice earlier this month. Take Seattle.

1* Free Pick on Lions -2½

Chiefs vs Cowboys NFL Free Pick

The Angle: Something is not right in Kansas City, and the Chiefs needed an 11-0 fourth quarter to force an overtime win against the Colts last week. Patrick Mahomes was playing through a groin injury and had 0 touchdowns and one interception. While I expect Mahomes to take the field here, he seems somewhat limited and the Cowboys are playing their best football of the season. 

My free picks are typically rated 2-3%, but as a Thanksgiving gift, I'm giving out what normally would've been a 4% TOP PLAY for paying clients as a free pick. 

Play on: COWBOYS (4%)

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #312 Under in Navy Midshipmen @ Memphis Tigers (7:30p.m., Thursday, November 27 ESPN) Navy has a lot of play for in this game, as they have a chance to reach the conference title game with a win. They have had another strong season, but I see them struggling to light up the scoreboard in this game. This total is inflated as both teams have strong records hitting the over. Navy still likes to control the football, and Memphis needs to improve on defense if they want to win this game. We will not worry about who covers this spread and instead just focus on the over. Do not miss out on Doc’s Sports Holiday Weekend card! We will feature plays on four days in football and now is the time to jump on board with a veteran handicapper of 54 years.  

Ohio University vs Buffalo 
Friday, November 28, 2025 
5-Unit bet on the Ohio University Bobcats priced as a 7-point favorite 

The following NFL betting algorithm has compiled a 198-67 SU and 163-97-2 ATS record good for 63% winning bets since 2020. The required criteria are: 

Bet on road teams that have allowed 14 or fewer points in each of their last two games. 

The opponent is coming off a loss by 17 or more points 

If the game occurs from week 10 on out to the end of the season, these road teams have gone 78-24 SU and 66-31-1 ATS good for 68% winning bets.  

Buffalo must win to get 6 wins and become bowl eligible, but it will be very difficult for them going up against a solid Ohio U squad that is 7-4 overall and 5-2 in the MAC Conference. The Bobcats running back Sieh Bangura had a career high 196 rushing yards against UMASS last week in a 42-14 thrashing. Buffalo is going to have immense trouble stopping the Ohio ground attack that ranks 16th nationally gaining 216 yards per game. Buffalo’s rush defense ranks 66th nationally allowing 152.3 RYPG. Ohio’s ground attack will steadily wear down the Buffalo defense and when the safeties creep up to the line of scrimmage, then the play action pass play will be in man coverage and in highly successful situations.  

·      Michigan averaging 232.5 points per game in last 5 games

·      Ohio State is 9-1-1 ATS covering by 6.1 points per game 

·      Michigan 4-7 -.9

·      Ohio State under 7-4 -3.8

·      Big myth about betting double-digit dogs in rivalry games, though recently in this series it has been

·      Big away favorites in triple revenge are 66-29-2 (Ohio State)

·      Buckeyes plenty of motivation to run up score after Michigan planted flag last game and Michigan’s domination recently 

·      Big conference dog, low total, but much better on road, so only slight edge for UM here

·      Home ranked team that’s won at least 2 straight versus opponent in top 20 is 117-67-7 (Michigan)

The pick: Ohio State -10 as they are the better team and have all the motivation in the world to run up score
