UAB at Memphis
February 16th 2011 14:42
It has been a great run with the free plays as of late, hitting the over last night in the Kings and Thunder games now moves me to 9-4 the last 13 games. I am looking to get us another win tonight as I jump over to College Basketball and will make a play on the UAB at Memphis game. My paid plays have been red hot going 6-1 the last 7 College Basketball Top Plays. I have another College Basketball Top Play for tonight that is a road underdog that should win outright.
Free Play: UAB 3.5
I am going to start by saying this is a huge revenge game for UAB who was beat by Memphis in overtime at home back in January The UAB Blazers sit at the top of the Conference USA standings with Memphis one game back and I am sure they are not going to want to give that up without a fight.
The UAB Blazers (18-6, 8-3) enters tonight matchup winning four of their last five games while going 3-2 ATS and 2-0 ATS as an underdog. The Blazers have been playing outstanding defense as of late allowing just 59.8 points per game the last five games with the offense averaging 66 points per game. This season UAB is averaging 66.1 points per game on the road while allowing just 64.1 points per game going 7-4 SU away from home and 9-2 ATS. The Blazers are 4-0 ATS the last four road games against teams with a home winning % greater then .600. UAB is 6-1 ATS the last seven road games as an underdog of .5-6.5. UAB is 9-3 the last 12 games following an ATS loss.
The Memphis Tigers (19-6, 7-3) enters tonight’s matchup looking to take over the Conference USA top spot. Memphis has played well the last three games going 3-0 SU and 3-0 ATS. The defense is allowing just 60.3 points per game the last three games which are 9.5 points lower then their season average. The offense though has taken a bit of a hit those last three games averaging just 64 points per game which is 11.5 points lower then their season average. This season Memphis is averaging 78.8 points per game while allowing 67.6 points per game. Memphis is 14-2 SU at home this season while going just 5-8 ATS. Memphis is just 3-5 ATS at home though against teams that is above .500. The Tigers are just 5-9 ATS on the year as a favorite. The Tigers though are just 6-13 ATS the last 19 games as a home favorite.
This is going to be a great game tonight. I really feel though that UAB is going to bring their best tonight to not give up that Conference lead and to get some revenge on Memphis from that loss earlier this season. More times then not when a team in Memphis that wins on the road as an underdog then comes home is usually a bigger favorite then 3.5 points. The odds makers know that UAB is going to give Memphis all they can handle tonight. Play the road underdog and do not be surprised if they pull out the outright win but I will take the 3.5 points and cash this winning free play again.
