HEADLINES 

– Big time event tonight as UFC heads to a sold out Madison Square Garden. Headlining the event is Conor McGregor looking to hold two belts at the same time with a defeat of Alvarez.  McGregor opens as a -140 favorite.Check out the video below and read Justin Hartling’s preview here, for all the info.

– Points Points Points Points Points !!! 89.5 of them in fact. That’s the O/U total for Texas Tech and Oklahoma State’s projected shootout. As history has shown in games with similar totals- the Over has cashed 7 out of 10 times.

Here’s our man Justin Hartling with more info.

– FUTURES ! College Basketball is officially underway, and OddsShark.com takes a look at the projected value of teams to be cutting down the nets in April.

One team I like at first glance is :

-Louisville +3300 – Why ? 1- Rick Pitino pissed off after missing the tourney last year. 2- his teams plays better defense consistently then anyone. They in my eyes will be a lock to the Sweet 16, where as we know the hedging can begin. Like the Cards here.

– Rolling off 7 straight wins, the Dallas Cowboys are tied for the second-best odds to win the Super Bowl:

TRENDS

PICKS

NEW Mexico +1 

Utah State is without QB KentMyers, and goes to Damion Hobbs (24 career attempts) and without 3rd leading rusher Devante Mays. Give me Bob Davie and his EXPLOSIVE rushing attack to pound a 10-14 point win in what I consider a case of the wrong teams being favored.

Last Week: 1-0
