Akron -3

This is a low number here, putting value on the visitors. 

Akron comes into this one 5-2 on the season and defensively, they are really going to cause issues for this Marshall team.

Akron is giving up just 62.7 points per game and allowing teams to shoot a mere 35.8% from the field against them. These numbers are some of the best thus far into the young season as they have shown the ability to really close down on shooters and control the paint.

Look for that to be the case here against Marshall, who doesn't have much firepower themselves on the offensive end. 

Some trends to note. Zips are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400.Zips are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up win.

Back Akron.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 7* CBB ATS Play

NC State -5

Laying the points against Wisconsin is a nice move here.

The Badgers simply aren't the team they once were.

We saw that this season in losses to teams like Richmond and New Mexico as they don't have the firepower they used to. 

Offensively, they are worse than recent years with the inability of having someone step up for them down the stretch. Defensively they were knocked around in those losses and that will play a huge factor here. Look for the Wolfpack to pick apart this Wisconsin team as they have rolled at home in non conference games.

Some trends to note. Badgers are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.Badgers are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss.

Back NC State.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 8* CBB ATS Play

Ohio State +4.5 

The Buckeyes have value grabbing the points here. 

This line has actually jumped up a few points over night as Ohio State and North Carolina meet in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.

This figures to be one of the best on the slate as the Buckeyes have a legit shot here. North Carolina comes in just 2-5 ATS in their 7 games played overall, as they're making everything close. Ohio State dominated a top tier team in Villanova already once this season as the are set to get up for games like this. Look for the Buckeyes to assert their presence early on the road with their inside game, as they have the ability to control the paint and really make life difficult for this UNC defense.

Some trends to note. Buckeyes are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win.Buckeyes are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS win.

Back Ohio State.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 9* CBB ATS Play

Boston -6

This is a great situational bet on the Celtics. 

Miami gave it all they had last night as they were forced to go into OT with Toronto. In what was eventually a win, took a lot of energy and will now have fatigue become a huge factor with that and the travel. 

Boston has owned good teams as well. They are 9-0 ATS and 7-2 SU against teams with winning records and have some extra rest heading into play. 

Some trends to note. Celtics are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Celtics are 9-2-2 ATS in their last 13 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game.

Back Boston.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.
