Houston will be playing their first game at Foster Pavilion, which has proved advantageous for Baylor this season. Both teams have crushed opponents at home this season; home-court advantage could be pivotal for this Big 12 matchup.
The Flyers’ problem with the Rangers goes back much further than Tortorella’s arrival in Philadelphia. New York has won eight of nine from the Flyers, with more than half of the wins coming by more than one goal. And the Rangers enter this game on fire, having won nine in a row and coming off a 5-1 rout of New Jersey.
There’s been some love/hate on Aguilar based on the line movement this week as I’ve seen him at +100 and as high as +140. I personally took a shot on him at +120 earlier this week and am still content with him as the slight dog. Look for his pressure, durability, and cardio to pay off as he finishes Mendonca in the second or third round.
Welcome back to our NBA coverage here at Godzilla Wins. One of the games on tap from Friday night’s slate features the Milwaukee Bucks (35-21 SU, 21-35 ATS) taking on the Minnesota Timberwolves (39-16 SU, 29-25-1 ATS).
Here is a look at which team has the edge going into this matchup and why.
The Pittsburgh Penguins are at a crossroads with an aging team that is a long shot to make the playoffs. With the March 8th trade deadline looming and the team being eight points away from a wild card position they could be sellers if things don’t turnaround.
Unlike a lot of teams, Washington State has held its own on the road. Since dropping their first two league games, the Cougars are 5-1 SU and 4-2 ATS in Pac-12 play away from Pullman. The one loss wasn’t great considering it came at California, but it was in overtime. The Cougars have also depended on their defense as of late, holding four straight opponents to 65 points or less.
Florida Atlantic went 4-1 in those games, which more than offset its pratfalls against Florida Gulf Coast and Bryant. And that has the Owls on the right side of the bubble and the Mustangs needing to run the table to have a chance. SMU at least has an opportunity to get a Quad 1 win here (and potentially another one at South Florida on Sunday), but most people aren’t thinking about them as a bubble squad.
Will the former champion cement himself as the number one contender? Or will Royval spring an upset to position himself back against the champion? Read on to see how these flyweights match up and how I believe it will transpire.
But the Hoosiers have won seven of the past eight meetings with Nebraska. And that’s why Indiana is still giving points; the books don’t buy that the balance of power has completely swung. And that makes this a true opportunity for Nebraska: tournament teams don’t lose this type of game.
