KANSAS STATE Game: Oregon vs. Kansas State Game Time: 11/29/2007 9:00:00 PM Prediction: Kansas State Reason: I'm taking the points with KANSAS STATE. Yesterday, I successfully played on Penn State. The Nittany Lions were returning home after having played rather poorly in their tournament. I felt that they were better than they had shown in the tournament and expected them to bounce back with a much better effort (and a victory) on their home floor. I feel much the same way about tonight's matchup as I feel that the Wildcats are significantly better than they have shown. I also feel that the Wildcats have something to prove and that they'll play with a chip on their shoulder for tonight's nationally televised game. Last season, the Wildcats became the first 10-6 finisher in Big 12 history to not receive a bid to the NCAA Tournament. Note that Texas Tech, which finished fifth in the conference, was chosen by the NCAA Selection Committee and that the Red Raiders had been crushed 66-45 by the Wildcats in the Big 12 Tournament. This year's team has a new coach in Frank Martin (Bob Huggins' top assistant), anxious for his first signature victory. Martin has inherited a solid team with one bigtime superstar. Rated by some as the top high school prospect in the country last year, Michael Beasley has certainly been living up to the hype. Beasley has a double-double in all six games this season and is averaging an extremely impressive 27.2 ppg and 15.5 rpg. The Ducks can score with the best of them. However, their defense has been shaky and they allowed a whopping 99 points to St. Mary's in losing their most recent road game. That loss dropped the Ducks to 5-9 ATS the last 14 times they were favored by four points or less. Conversely, the Wildcats are 12-6 ATS the last 18 times they were underdogs of four points or less. Look for Beasley and co. to improve on those stats as remain perfect on their home floor by scoring the minor upset. *Best Bet Burns NHL CALGARY Game: Anaheim Ducks vs. Calgary Flames Game Time: 11/29/2007 9:05:00 PM Prediction: Calgary Flames Reason: I'm laying the price with CALGARY. The Ducks have struggled on the road all season, going 3-7-1. However, even when the Ducks have been playing well on the road, they've never fared well here at Calgary. In fact, Anaheim is just 9-19-0 with one tie at Calgary since entering the league in 1993-94. Note that the Flames took both meetings here last season, winning by a combined score of 6-2. Including those victories, Flames' goalie Kiprusoff is 7-3-0 with a superb 1.65 goals-against average in 10 games against the Ducks. The Flames and their fans at the sold out Saddledome should be especically motivated tonight. Not only are the defending champions in town, but Flames' star and captain Jarome Iginla is set to become the franchise's all-time leader in games played. Look for a big effort from Iginla and co. as they grab the important two points and improve to 30-9 (+13.4) since 2005 when playing a home game with an over/under line of five or less. *Game of the Week Burns NBA UNDER celts/knicks (188 or better) Game: New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics Game Time: 11/29/2007 8:05:00 PM Prediction: under Reason: I'm playing on Boston and New York to finish UNDER the total. The Celtics come off a high-scoring contest at Cleveland on Tuesday. However, that game would have still finished comfortably below the total if not for the 29 points scored in overtime. Note that was just Boston's second loss of the season and that after the first, the Celtics responded by holding their following opponent (Golden St) to a mere 82 points in a game that finished below the number by more than 25 points. Including that result, the UNDER is a profitable 5-1-1 in the Celtics' seven home games with the visiting team averaging just 85 points. The Knicks also come off a high-scoring game. However, their four previous games ALL stayed below the total, including their most recent two on the road. Additionally, the Knicks have already seen the UNDER go 6-1 this season after allowing 105 or more points in their previous game. Look for tonight's game to be lower scoring than expected once again with the final combined score staying beneath the number. *TNT Total of the Month
