OPPOSITE PICKS: 100-77-1 ATS

MICHIGAN -4.5 vs. Iowa
I’m officially on the Michigan bandwagon. I’ve gone against them vs. Wisconsin and they won…then again against Ohio St. and they won. No more. Don’t have to hit me over the head THREE times. Let’s go Michigan.
OPPOSITE PICK: IOWA +4.5

HOUSTON -12 vs. Western Kent.
Hilltoppers have won 6 in a row, but that’s come against the awful Conference USA. They’ve played only two games in nearly 4 weeks because of the corona-virus situation. Now they go on the road against one of the toughest defensive teams in CBB. Good Luck. 16 of Houston’s 19 wins have come by double digits.This has 90-60 written all over it. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Houston.
OPPOSITE PICK: WESTERN KENTUCKY +12

UCLA Pk @ Utah
It’s normally never easy playing Utah. But this year that hasn’t been the case. The Utes have waived the white flag on this season. They are 5-9 since January including 3 straight loses. UCLA is 16-5 inc: 12-3 in conference play. They can not afford to slip up as they are a half a game behind 1st place USC. LOVE UCLA at Pickem.
OPPOSITE PICK: UTAH Pk

DETROIT MERCY -10.5 vs. Robert Morris
Admit it, you don’t know what state Robert Morris plays in. What about it’s nickname? Name a player or their head coach? How about a conference? No matter…I will tell you. THEY STINK. Jon Williams and the rest of the Colonials from the Horizon Conference out of Pittsburgh, PA are AWFUL....dead last in the conference. They got whack the last two games by this same Detroit team by 11 & 19pts and now all I have to do is lay 11.5pts? This is a STEAL. LOVE Detroit Mercy.
OPPOSITE PICK: ROBERT MORRIS +10.5

OHIO ST. -4 @ Michigan St.
Yeah, the Spartans upset Illinois it’s last game and have won 2 in a row. But bad teams don’t all of a sudden turn in around. They are a bad team having a little run. That all comes to an end tonight against an Ohio St. team that lost to Michigan its last game to snap it’s 7 game win streak. They beat Michigan St. by 17 earlier this year. LOVE Ohio St. to win.
OPPOSITE PICK: MICHIGAN ST. +4

MINNESOTA -5 vs. Northwestern
Golden Golphers are nearly unbeatable at home and are desperate for a win to help their NCAA chances. NW stinks. They are 6-14…3-13 in the Big 10. Minny is only 13-10…BUT 13-2 at home which is where this game is. Northwestern is only 1-8 on the road. Now all I have to do is lay 5pts? Again, WAY too easy. LOVE Minnesota.
OPPOSITE PICK: NORTHWESTERN +5

STANFORD -1 vs Oregon
All signs point to the Cardinal who have in-season revenge on their side after losing to the Ducks earlier this year. Stanford is also a nice 20-7-1 ATS at home in this series inc: 8-2 with revenge. Oregon is coming off a loss last time out. Stanford also lost, but is still 4-2 it’s last 6 games.
OPPOSITE PICK: OREGON +1
