(20 Units Plays Now 6-1 or 86%)

Here are tonight's selections, and for more winners check out the NBA & NHL forums!!!

5 Units Villanova +6 (WON 59-64) +5.00 UNITS

Villanova (14-11) came up short at Seton Hall on Saturday, losing 70-68. Villanova is led by Allan Ray (17.5 ppg), while Curtis Sumpter (15 ppg, 7 rpg) and Jason Fraser (7.3 rpg) work the boards. Villanova has dropped three of four games, although they have been a terrific road team all season (8-6 SU, 10-3 ATS on the road). Syracuse (17-6 SU, 7-13 ATS) is second in the Big East in scoring (76 ppg) and third in field goal percentage (47%). They have 6'-8" junior Hakin Warrick (19 ppg, 9 rpg) leading the way along with guard Gerry McNamara (16 ppg). Syracuse is 12-3 SU at home, though just 3-9 ATS. This might be more of a defensive game than you might expect, as both teams allow 40% shooting by opponents and Villanova is 5-3 UNDER the total on the road while Syracuse is 9-4 UNDER the total overall.

5 Units Texas -7.5 (WON 82-67) +5.00 UNITS

A key Big 12 battle. Both these teams are just behind Oklahoma State for first place in the Big 12. They're both also off tough wins on Saturday, as Kansas nipped Iowa State by one point, 90-89 in OT, and Texas won 68-63 at rival Oklahoma. Kansas averages 67 ppg on the road while shooting 45%. The Kansas Jayhawks (17-6 SU, 6-14 ATS) are not a great road team, at 5-5 SU/4-6 ATS, led by 6'-9" Wayne Simien (17 ppg, 9 rpg) and 6'-11" freshman David Padgett up front, while 6'-4" junior Keith Langford (16 ppg) runs the break. After squandering a 17-point lead in regulation and then almost giving away a seven-point advantage in overtime, the Jayhawks escaped with a 90-89 victory over Iowa State on Saturday. Texas (19-4) averages 86 ppg at home where they are 13-2 SU/5-5 ATS. The Longhorns have 6'-5" freshman P.J. Tucker and 6'-8" James Thomas averaging over 6 rebounds per game under the boards, while 6'-4" senior Brandon Mouton (13 ppg) runs the backcourt. Texas brings the defense at home allowing 65 ppg. Kansas won 90-87 the last meeting (last year) in a game that went OVER the total, but the Longhorns should win this time in another shootout.

5 Units Air Force +6 (PUSH 61-67) +0.00 UNITS

Good Mountain West matchup and defense will take center stage. Air Force is 9-1 in the MWC, while BYU is tied with Utah for second place at 7-4. BYU allows 62 ppg at home, Air Force allows 50 ppg on the road! Air Force is 7-4 SU/5-2 ATS on the road with its terrific, disciplined defense. The Air Force Falcons (19-4 SU, 9-5 ATS) shoot 49% from the field looking for the 3-pointer led by 6’-6” senior Joel Gerlach, 6’-3” junior Tim Keller (11 ppg) and 6’-7” sophomore Nick Welch. BYU shoots 48% and scores 81 ppg at home. The BYU Cougars (17-7 SU, 13-8 ATS) have a height edge with 6’-7” senior Mark Bigelow (13 points pg), 6’-11” senior center Rafael Araujo (18 ppg, 57% FGs, 10 rpg) and guard Mike Hall. BYU is a perfect 12-0 SU/8-1 ATS at home where they outscore teams by an 81-62 average. BYU lost 74-52 at Air Force on January 24, but the home court should help them even the season series (close game to the wire).

Good luck tonight my friend's,
