Daily Three 2/22

 Hello,

Half of the sharp money hit last night as the Tigers of Clemson pulled off a miraculous victory in Blacksburg. Not much help else where, but we continue to move as we gear up for more college hoops and NHL action.

NHL 
Edmonton Oilers at Florida Panthers -145 (10 units wagered, 6.8 won)

 Yes I know, this isn't the sexiest pick ever. But we are looking to win units no matter the appearance of the bet. The Panthers have recovered from the injury bug and are on a serious tear. They have won 5 straight (3 of them against the Pacific Division, and hey what do you know, the Oilers are in the Pacific) and 8 of their last 9 games overall. This is pretty remarkable turnaround for a team that fired their coach earlier in the season. The Oilers are incredibly far away from home (2,990.4 m) and are playing the second of a back-to-back set, in which they got rocked last night by the Lightning. Also, we shall not forget that it is #bigcatweek. We are just going to get some units with the Panthers in Sunrise tonight. 

NCAAB

Providence Friars +7 (10 units wagered, 9 units won) at Creighton Blue Jays

 This is strictly a contrarian, sharp money pick. The Blue Jays are currently receiving 81% of ATS bets yet the line has dropped a half point from 7.5 to 7 since the line opened. We know that Creighton is just not the same team since Maurice Watson Jr. tore his ACL, and Providence is currently trying to stay on the bubble. Creighton has essentially locked up a bid in the tourney and are just trying to weather the storm until March. I think Ky Cartwright and Co. will go into Omaha and give Creighton a game tonight. 

UC Irvine Anteaters -4 (10 units wagered, 9 units won) at Cal State Fullerton Titans

 Bang bang. Bang bang. Bang Bang. The late night hammer is back with some Big West action. These two school are more fit for a baseball diamond, but tonight, they will be meeting each other on the hardwood. The Anteaters have taken control of the Big West and have also taken care of me. Sometimes, you just have to roll with a good thing, and i will continue to do that with the Anteaters. Numbers wise, the Anteaters are 135 spots higher in the Kenpom than the Titans and are also way more efficient on both sides of the ball. There is really nothing here that has me scared of the Titans, and I think the Anteaters will come out on top in this battle of Cali schools. 

Yesterday: 1-2
Overall: 72-63-6 (+104 Units)
February: 28-32-2 (-22 Units)
20 Unit Picks: 1-0
