-110

Over/Under

Picked: Nov 9 @ 1:00pm

Analysis

Both teams have started out the season scoring 80 points per game but their offenses have been untested by a quality defense. Neither team wants to push the tempo, making this more a half court game. Cincannti should have the more physicality of the defensive side as they’ll bring the pressure all game, looking to create turnovers. The Gophers have the bigger interior presence to control the glass and players that can match the Bearcats physicality but need to take care of the ball.

Picked: Nov 8 @ 11:13pm

Analysis

FanDuel. I'm backing Edmonton at home on Monday with Devon Levi expected to be in goal for the Oilers. Levi returned from injury on Saturday and stopped 20 of 22 shots in Edmonton's win over Vancouver. Levi is now 7-1-0 with a 2.97 GAA this season. Backup Tristan Jarry has also played well this season, so I would still bet Edmonton if he gets the nod over Levi. These two teams just met in New York on Nov. 1, with the Oilers winning 4-1. Edmonton has won five of the last six matchups, and I like that trend to continue at home on Monday.

Money Line

Picked: Nov 9 @ 12:49pm

Analysis

Well, well a fair NBA moneyline price and I have a pretty good idea who is all playing at approximately 12:45 p.m. ET. "Is this heaven? No, it's Iowa." Now I fully expect Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving ruled out in about 10 minutes, but this is all I ask. Dallas has won back-to-back games in double-digit fashion at home and heads out on a trip after so finish the job and sweep the homestand. Indiana, still sans Tyrese Haliburton, has gone from Memphis to Mexico City to Dallas in the past five nights and returns home after tonight. Probably dragging.

Money Line

Picked: Nov 9 @ 12:58pm

Analysis

I was holding out here to see if Ryan Nugent-Hopkins would play for Edmonton as he's the Oilers' third-best forward after Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. RNH took a puck off the dome on Saturday, but he's a hockey player and is in the lineup. McDavid is three points shy of 50 already and can become the third player in NHL history to hit the 50-point mark in 19 games or fewer. The Rangers have won three straight but rookie netminder Dylan Garand has a single win in six road appearances this year with a 3.25 GAA.

BUF @ MIN • Mon 8:15pm

BUF -2.5

-118

Spread

Picked: Nov 2 @ 11:13am

Analysis

The Bills' biggest game of the season turned into a clunker with Lamar Jackson hurt on his first snap, and you can't tell much about the defense facing an emergency QB. But the Vikings offense is coming off two uninspiring efforts against questionable defenses, and the unit has managed just six offensive TDs since Week 2. That's not going to cut it against the best scoring offense in the league, even with the best scoring defense on the other side of the ball. The Bills have scored 24+ in every game, 26+ when not turning the ball over five times and 33+ in five of seven games. A good Lions defense got to 19 against Minnesota, and the Bills should reach 20 and cover.
