| WHAT'S BREWING TODAY Wednesday, March 9 On Today's Scorecard Not So Big |
| The scene shifts from Nashville last year to Tampa this year. To say last year's SEC tourney was bizarre would be an understatement as for the first time since 1988-89 – and just the second time in SEC history dating back to 1932-33 – KENTUCKYentered the tourney with a losing record. It's our opinion, with a monster chip on their shoulder this year, that they are indeed the team to beat. John Calipari's cats are 20-2 this season against sub .750 opponents. They are also 48-24-2 ATS in this tournament in all games dating back to 1992, including 15-3 SU and 13-5 ATS since 2014. AUBURN is the No.1 seed and has been riding No. 1 and No. 2 in the polls all season. Our concern, though, is the Tigers were 16-0 SU and 13-2-1 ATS at home this season but suffered all four of their losses this season away from Auburn Arena. They are 7-15-2 ATS in this tourney when coming off a SUATS wins, and stand 0-5 SU in head-to-head games against Kentucky. And Bruce Pearl takes a huge back set to Calipari when it comes to X's and O's... ARKANSAS closed like a runaway train, going 14-2 SU and 13-2-1 ATS down the stretch at press time. The simple fact of the matter is its "Eric Musselman time", as he brings a 16-5 SU and 12-6-2 ATS in the postseason versus sub .666 foes into this event. You won't find us fading him anytime soon.

| Calvin Ridley got caught gambling on the NFL after he placed three legal bets in Florida with the Hard Rock on their sportsbook app. Ironically, the app launched on November 1 and was shut down on Dec 5 by the state of Florida. He made his plays in between the start and stop dates. He bet $1500 and lost $10 million. Those are the worst odds in gambling history. |
| Grinding Out The Profits The Heat Is On |
| The Heat have had this game circled ever since the Cavs clocked them in Cleveland, 105-94, in mid-December. That was on the heels of a 111-85 crush job by the Cavs over the Heat on this floor on December 1. With it, these are the sort of games Erik Spoelstra lives for. Miami's maestro is 99-79-1 ATS at home with same season revenge, including 92-25-1 ATS in those games he wins And then there is Cleveland. Even after the two wins this season, the Cavs check in just 4-11 SUATS in this series, including 1-7 ATS in Miami. You know the deal. The cle/mia game he speaks of above is Friday March 11 |
