All Sports 7 Day Package
It's Sunday, May 20, and In the NBA we just keep racking up the Ws, going 7-2/+11 units Friday nite, and our NBA PODs (Plays of the Day) an AMAZING 67% (32-16 for +45 units) for the past month. As a result, our POD stash is now +1,831 units on our > 2,400 POD picks at Top Ten since Jan 2010, with a 66% hit rate. We are also +73 units on our last 300+ picks in All Sports (see us on TT’s All Sports L/B). And the Nite Owl has been FIRE ON ICE and MONEY IN THE BANK in NHL, cashing 65% (52-29/+70 units) of all NHL picks this season since All Star break, including 28-15/+33 units so far in the NHL playoffs. And our PODs (Plays of the Day) in NHL TY are 69-12 (86%) for +167 units. Also note that we are +93 units with our L450 NHL picks at Top Ten L3Y (see us on Top Ten NHL L/B). And ALL OF THE ABOVE IS VERIFIABLE with Top Ten customer service or by CHECKING OUR PAST PICKS on this site. And speaking of our major success with PODs, note that our +1831 POD units translates into a cool $183 K for our $100 a unit POD clients, who make more money staying at home playing our POD picks than most people make working five days and 40+ hours per week at their jobs (assuming they even have one), not to mention the hassles of commuting, dealing with bosses and other work place issues, etc.). Today we already have a strong 3 unit NHL playoff pick, and will likely have more than a few NBA picks on the early NBA East series game 4 between Pacers and Heat, and in the late NBA West series game 4 between Clips and Spurs, all of which are included in this $179 Seven Day All Sports Package. No matter how you do it, whether buying our big picks individually, one of our reasonably priced short term all sports passes like this one, just to take us out for a "test drive," or (for the best value) one of our longer term packages, we urge you to give us a shot for at least a day, and see how it feels to WIN BIG, CONSISTENTLY, with the Nite Owl in your corner. And once you see our detailed write-ups with our trademark match-up analysis and betting attack strategy, and then see the winning results of our picks, then you'll know why WE ARE #1, and you’ll be back for one of our longer term combo packages, where you will get even more "bang for your buck. And in the unlikely event that you don't end up with plus units from this or any of our packages, note that all of our packages offered through Top Ten Cappers are all backed by Top Ten's "win or renew for free" guarantee. So get the Nite Owl on your team TODAY, as we have been ON FIRE for months with our top POD picks, and have been a consistent big winner at Top Ten in ALL OF THE MAJOR SPORTS (NFL, college FB, college hoops, NHL, NBA and MLB) L3Y, and see for yourself how it feels to win big and win consistently with the Nite Owl. But again, note that our two active sports this time of year are NBA and NHL (no MLB). So WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

NBA

It's Tuesday, May 22, and in the NBA we just keep racking up the Ws with our NBA PODs (Plays of the Day), a solid 64% (32-18 for +37 units) for the past month. As a result of that and our AMAZING 22-1 record for +63 units on our NHL playoff PODs TY, our massive POD stash is now +1,830 units thru May 21 on our > 2,400 POD picks at Top Ten since Jan 2010, with a 66% hit rate. We are also +56 units on our last 300+ picks in All Sports (see us on TT’s All Sports L/B), ALL OF THE ABOVE VERIFIABLE with Top Ten customer service or by CHECKING OUR PAST PICKS on this site. In tonite’s only NBA playoff game, the NBA East series game 5 between the Indy Pacers and Miami Heat, we have 3 picks (two totals, one side) for 9 total units, including a strong full game totals POD, the latter available for just $29. But your BEST BET is to get ALL 3 of our late NBA picks tonite, with this recently reduced $149 full season NBA Playoff pass, which takes you with us all the way thru the playoffs, until a new NBA champ is crowned in June And speaking of our major success with PODs, note that our +1830 POD units translates into a cool $183 K for our $100 a unit POD clients, who make more money staying at home playing our POD picks than most people make working five days and 40+ hours per week at their jobs (assuming they even have one), not to mention the hassles of commuting, dealing with bosses and other work place issues, etc.). And with the NBA playoffs now in full swing, note that our past accomplishments and "numbers' in the NBA playoffs L3Y are second to none. For example, in LY’s NBA playoffs, our PODs were nothing short of INCREDIBLE – try 83% winners, at 78-15, pulling in a whopping +165 units ($16,500 in the wallets of our $100 per unit NBA POD player) in just over 7 weeks – and ALL of the above is VERIFIABLE by calling Top Ten customer service. After going 6-1 for +12 units on our POD picks in games 3-5 of the 2011 championship series, and then smashing the books with a 6-1/+16.5 unit nite (including 4-0/+14 units with our 4 POD picks) with our picks on Mavs and the Over in the game 6 finale of LY's NBA championship round, our big picks (PODs or stronger) in LY’s NBA playoffs hit at an incredible 83% pace -- try 78-15, pulling in a whopping +165 units ($16,500 in the wallets of our $100 per unit NBA POD players in just over 7 weeks). And that stellar playoff POD record includes 47-8/+104 units on all side PODs, 48-7/+114 units on all partial game picks, 30-2/+81 units on all partial game side picks, and 26-8/+48 units on all full game PODs, which breaks down into 16-6/+25 units on all full game side PODs and 10-2/+23 units on all full game totals PODs. And we also ended the NBA playoffs on a major roll the year before (spring 2010), with a 10-0 close out POD run for +34 units and a 60% hit rate in L3 rounds). And the year before that (spring 2009), we went 65-41/+46 units on our 106 NBA playoff picks, for a 61% hit rate that was tops on Top Ten NBA leader board, incl 26-10/72% for +30 units in final month of those 2009 playoffs, all of which clearly makes us TOP TEN's #1 NBA PLAYOFF CAPPER L2+Y. And it’s our biggest picks, our GOM, GOY and POD plays, where we are at our best, as it should be – again, up +1834 POD units thru May 17 with a 66% hit rate on our > 2,400 POD picks at Top Ten since Jan 2010, putting us way on top of Top Ten’s POD L/B, with the compettion not even in our rear view mirror. If it's consistency that you're looking for, look no further than Nite Owl Sports, and let the Nite Owl put his 30+ years of sports capping experience to work, to get you the best picks at the best lines available each and every day of the playoffs. That is why in the 3+ years that Nite Owl has been with Top Ten, we are up +438 units on our more than 1,000 NBA PODs (634-404) during that 3+ year stretch, with a 61% hit rate on those NBA PODs. And note that those +438 NBA POD units L3Y translate into a cool $43,800 for anyone who has played only our NBA PODs at $100 a unit since we have been releasing them at Top Ten. So let the Nite Owl put his 30+ years of sports capping experience to work, to get you MAXIMUM BANG FOR YOUR BUCK with this Full Season NBA Package, recently reduced in price to just $189, which gets you the best picks at the best lines available, each and every day of TY's NBA playoffs, until this season's NBA champion is crowned in June. And we are confident that once you see our detailed write-ups with our trademark match-up analysis and betting attack strategy, and then see how much cash you end up with in your wallets with the many winning picks you will get from this NBA Season Pass, you'll be back for even more winners with one of our football combo packs this fall (we are taking off July and August after the NBA and NHL playoffs have concluded). And in the unlikely event that you don't end up with plus units with this full season NBA package, note that this and all of our packages offered through Top Ten Cappers are all backed by Top Ten's "win or renew for free" guarantee.

Alabama Crimson Tide at LSU Tigers

(ATS: LSU Tigers +2 (-110))

Photo_cfb

Here we are – it’s time for the re-match of this season's "Game of the Century,” a 9-6 OT grind it out win by LSU in Tuscaloosa in early November, punctuated by some key missed FGs and other errors by Alabama, and basically a pretty ugly game except to defensive “purists.” And while this is not the first re-match of a regular season game (for example, Florida beating Fla State in the title game after losing to them in the regular season), it is the first time in the 13-year history of the BCS that two teams from the same conference will play for the title. And there is lots of familiarity between the nation's top two defensively awesome squads, squaring off for 5th time in the past 4 years. LSU, which overcame plenty of off-field turmoil in 2011, dominated everyone but Bama this season, winning its other 12 games by double digits, and going 10-3 ATS, despite having the toughest schedule of any college FB team TY – among other victims besides Alabama, “upsetting” Oregon in their season opener at Texas Stadium, then # 3 Arkansas in their regular season finale, and having two big road wins in addition to the one in Tuscaloosa (at West Va and over UGA in Atlanta in the SEC Title Game). And note that the only teams to score two or more offensive TDs vs. the suffocating Tiger defense (10.5 ppg) were Oregon and West Virginia, which combined to attempt 119 passes! LSU needed to overcome early DD deficits in its last two contests, versus Arkansas and Georgia (the SEC title game), dominating those BCS bowl teams 45-3 after intermission! The Tide, which barely nosed out Oklahoma State in the BCS standings to earn this re-match, won 11 games by DDs, but if you look at their schedule, the only other good team they played all year (in addition to LSU)was Arkansas, who they got to play at home.

While proud, tradition-rich Alabama is in REVENGE mode (a number of players have expressed such feelings in recent ESPN segments) after that painful 9-6 OT loss to Tigers in Tuscaloosa Nov. 5, we’re not convinced they’ll get it, especially not at this unfriendly venue, at the New Orleans Superdome, just an hour’s drive from the LSU campus, and with about 90% of the local fans with tickets pulling for LSU. In any event, a quick review of some of the “low-lites’ of that 9-6 snore fest is in order here. The Crimson Tide outgained the Tigers 295-239, but missed 4 FGs (one blocked), although not exactly chip shots (from 44, 49, 50 and 52 yards). LSU QB Jarrett Lee, who had performed efficiently as the starter in 2011 up to that game, was replaced by former No. 1 QB Jordan Jefferson (who had served a 4-game season-opening suspension for being involved in a bar brawl over the summer) after Lee threw his second "pick" in the game (and his seventh career int. vs. the Tide). The battle-tested Jefferson stepped in and effectively ran some zone-option, and he hit enough timely passes to pull out the OT victory. In fact, Jefferson has been solid in all three of his appearances vs. Nick Saban's sophisticated, smothering Tide defense (only 8.8 ppg this season), anchored by NFL-ready LB Dont'a Hightower & SS Mark Barron, with Jefferson completing 65% (26 of 40) for 322 YP, with 2 TDPs and no interceptions. And the mobile Jefferson (248 YR in 2011 despite missing four games), able to improvise and extend plays with his legs, owns a deeper and more explosive arsenal than his Alabama counterpart. LSU had four RBs with 300+ YR, and the fluid WR trio of Rueben Randle (50 catches, 8 TDs), hotshot frosh Odell Beckham, Jr. (34 & 2) and Russell Sheppard (13 & 3) are capable of more vertical plays than Crimson Tide wide-outs Marquis Maze & Darius Hanks (only two combined TDC TY), who totaled only 99 yards in the regular-season battle.

We went with then 5 point underdog LSU in that reg season game TY in Tuscaloosa, and we see no compelling reason in the re-match to buck the Bayou Bengals here (as 1-2-point underdogs at most books), who (as mentioned above) will be fueled by the majority of the fan support in New Orleans' Superdome. Bama's power ground attack, spearheaded by Heisman Trophy finalist RB Trent Richardson (1583 YR, 20 TDs), needs to find some early headway to allow QB A.J. McCarron to work play-action passes in the hope of stretching the fast, physical and very DEEP LSU defense. But we’re not convinced that’s going to happen, as Richardson has amassed only 144 yards in 30 carries with no TDs. vs. the Tiger stop unit directed by LSU defensive guru John Chavis. And LSU's deep, hard-charging DL, featuring sack-happy 6-5 DE Barkevious Mingo & 6-4 Sam Montgomery (combined 17 sacks) will apply pressure, while Bama's good-but-not-great WRs will be hard-pressed to get separation vs. the Tigers' excellent, first-team A-A CBs Morris Claiborne (6 INTs) and Tyrann "Honey Badger" Mathieu, who is a spectacular punt returner (No. 2 in the country, not including the other BCS bowl games; 2 TDs) and the ultimate ball-hawk, with 2 INTs. & six forced fumbles (5 recovered).

Moreover, in another anticipated physical slugfest where field position is paramount, a key kicking game edge goes to the Bengals, with accurate PK Drew Alleman (16 of 18 FGs) and strong-legged Aussie punter Brad Wing (44-yard avg.), with the latter playing a key role with his high, long punts (which gave LSU punt coverage plenty of time to stifle any Alabama punt returns and resulted in numerous fair catches) in the first clash between these two. And speaking of Tiger coverage teams, they have allowed a total of only six yards on punt returns all season -- are you kidding me?

Sure, we expect shrewd Tide head coach Nick Saban to have a few tricks up his sleeve with more than a month to get ready, but note that Saban, who is shooting for his second BCS title in the last three years, is only 6-6 SU in bowls as a head coach, including a 14 point upset loss to Utah in the Sugar Bowl, his last game at the Superdome, 3 years ago, and a somewhat lucky win two years ago in the BCS Title Game over Texas, where Longhorn QB Colt Mc Coy was knocked out of the game in the 1Q with a shoulder injury and his freshman replacement was in way over his head, committing numerous TOs, repeatedly setting up the Tide for easy scores and great field position. In contrast, LSU mentor Les Miles (TY’s AP coach of the year) is 3-2 in meetings vs. Saban, and 5-1 SU and ATS in bowls at LSU, including 2-0 at the Superdome, with a pair of double digit wins there, over Ohio State in the 2007 BCS Title Game and 41-14 over ND in the Sugar Bowl the year before, has been absolutely masterful with extra prep time, going 18-3 SU with more than a week to prime since 2005. So bottom line, we expect the highly-opportunistic, mistake-free Tigers (nation-best +22 in TO margin; 30 takeaways, only 8 giveaways), whose overall speed advantage figures to be accentuated on the fast indoor track, and who have a major special teams edge, as noted above, to capture their third BCS title since 2003. Accordingly, we’ll take them both SU and ATS, with our main pick this 3 unit POD at +2 ATS.

But with Alabama primed for revenge and LSU not being invincible and having needed to overcome early DD deficits in its last two contests, versus Arkansas and Georgia, don’t be surprised if we come back with one or two partial game picks on the Tide.

FIRST QUARTER MONEYLINE: Alabama Crimson Tide -120

As stated at the end of the supporting WUs for our full game picks on LSU, with Alabama primed for revenge and LSU not being invincible and having needed to overcome early DD deficits in its last two contests, versus Arkansas and Georgia, we told you not to be surprised if we came back with one or two partial game picks on the Tide. And here is the first of those two partial game picks, on Alabama at -120 on the 1Q money line, which we believe is a major error by the line maker, especially when comparing the 1Q point spread and ML in this game to those in other games. While we realize this is basically an even game, while yesterday’s Pitt-Denver game in NFL clearly was not, what is relevant in comparing the two is that while the 1Q point spread in that (Pitt-Denver) game was Pitt -1/2 point at -120 odds, the 1Q ML for Pitt, as we recall, was at least -300. Yet in this game tonite, the 1Q point spread is Alabama -1/2 and +130 odds, but -120 on the 1Q ML, with that 1Q ML giving us great line value on Alabama. But that’s relevant only if we like Alabama on the 1Q line, which we do. And here’s why. We looked at what we believe to be the 7 most relevant games played by these two teams the last two years, including the last two against each other, TY and LY, and we analyzed the full and partial game results and #s of those games, which include (i) LSU’s four games TY against teams ranked in the Top 5 (when the games were played), at Alabama, at home vs Arkie, and neutral field games against Oregon and Georgia, plus LY’s game (at home) vs Alabama, and (ii) four recent Alabama games including their only two games TY against really good teams (both at home, against LSU and Arkie) and their two toughest games LY, at home vs #1 Auburn and at LSU. Since both games between these two L2Y are included in both lists, that’s 7 total games, not 9.

In their four games, Alabama was a so so 1-2-1 as far as having the lead (or not) after 1Q, with an average 1Q lead of 4.5 points, including a huge 21-0 lead LY over #1 Auburn, a lead they subsequently blew in the 2H to lose the game and the right to play in LY’s SEC Title Game, while LSU was a crappy 1-2-2 in their five games as far as having the lead (or not) after 1Q, with an average 1Q deficit of 5 points, including not only deficits of 10 points to UGA and 3 points to Oregon at end of the 1Q, but also (after a scoreless 1Q) an early 0-14 second quarter deficit to Arkie at home before storming back to easily win the game and cover ATS. Combining and averaging the 1Q results and #s for both teams in those games, and counting the two games between them just once each, not twice each, to avoid over-emphasizing same, gives Alabama a decent 3-1-3 edge over LSU vs the 1Q line, and projects a 4-5 point lead for the Tide at end of the 1Q. However, while we like Alabama to have a lead after 1Q, with 3 of those 7 first quarters ending up tied, and with us expecting this game to get off to a slow start, scoring wise, like two heavy weight fighters “sizing each other up” in the first few rounds, we would not be surprised to see a 3-3 1Q or even a scoreless 1Q, so we’ll limit our 1Q pick on Alabama to this 3 unit pick at -120 on the ML, and will not recommend laying even half a point with them on the 1Q line.

FIRST HALF MONEYLINE: Alabama Crimson Tide -125

We also like Alabama on the 1H line, and here’s our pick specific support for our two 1H picks on the Tide. We looked at what we believe to be the 7 most relevant games played by these two teams the last two years, including the last two against each other, TY and LY, and we analyzed the full and partial game results and #s of those games, which include (i) LSU’s four games TY against teams ranked in the Top 5 (when the games were played), at Alabama, at home vs Arkie, and neutral field games against Oregon and Georgia, plus LY’s game (at home) vs Alabama, and (ii) four recent Alabama games including their only two games TY against really good teams (both at home, against LSU and Arkie) and their two toughest games LY, at home vs #1 Auburn and at LSU. Since both games between these two L2Y are included in both lists, that’s 7 total games, not 9.

In their four games, Alabama was a solid 3-1 ATS vs the 1H line, with an average HT lead of 8 points, including a huge 24-7 HT lead LY over #1 Auburn, a lead they subsequently blew in the 2H to lose the game and the right to play in LY’s SEC Title Game, and a HT tie in their game against LSU TY, at home. LSU was also 3-1 ATS vs the 1H line in thheir five games, with an average HT lead of 2 points, including not only a HT deficit of 3 points to UGA (before blowing them out in the 2H) but also (after a scoreless 1Q) an early 0-14 second quarter deficit to Arkie at home before storming back to not only easily win the game and cover ATS but also cover the 1H line by scoring the final 21 points of the 1H (but again, that game was at home in Tiger Stadium). Combining and averaging the 1H results and #s for both teams in those games, and counting the two games between them just once each, not twice each, to avoid over-emphasizing same, gives neither team any ATS edge over the other vs the 1Q line, but the #s project a 3 point lead for the Tide at the half. So we like Alabama to have a small HT lead, and with just one of those 7 first halfs ending up tied, we are not as uncomfortable laying a half point ATS on the 1H line as on the 1Q line, which we’ll do for one unit, but we’ll split our 1H play on Alabama into two picks, with this two unit pick at -125 on the 1H ML being the stronger of the two.

LSU was also 3-1 ATS vs the 1H line in thheir five games, with an average HT lead of 2 points, including not only a HT deficit of 3 points to UGA (before blowing them out in the 2H) but also (after a scoreless 1Q) an early 0-14 second quarter deficit to Arkie at home before storming back to not only easily win the game and cover ATS but also cover the 1H line by scoring the final 21 points of the 1H (but again, that game was at home in Tiger Stadium).

TOTAL: Under 41 (-110)
WIN for +1.82 unit(s)

TOTAL: Under 41 (-110)

With this BCS Title game a re-match of that painful (to watch) 9-6 OT Alabama loss to Tigers in Tuscaloosa Nov. 5, a snore fest (except for defensive “purists”) in which 15 total points were scored, just 12 in regulation 4Qs, the natural “knee jerk” reaction id to call for another low scoring game similar to the first one and pound the Under accordingly. But before we get to our totals analysis for this game, a quick review of some of the “low-lites’ of that 9-6 snore fest is in order here. The Crimson Tide outgained the Tigers 295-239, but missed 4 FGs (one blocked), although not exactly chip shots (from 44, 49, 50 and 52 yards). However, LSU moved the ball much better after replacing Jarrett Lee at QB with the more versatile, more mobile former #1 LSU QB Jordan Jefferson (who had been moved to #2 after having served a 4-game season-opening suspension for being involved in a bar brawl over the summer) after Lee threw his second "pick" in the game (and his seventh career INT vs. the Tide). The battle-tested Jefferson stepped in and effectively ran some zone-option, and he hit enough timely passes to pull out the OT victory. In fact, Jefferson has been solid in all three of his appearances vs. Nick Saban's sophisticated, smothering Tide defense (only 8.8 ppg this season), anchored by NFL-ready LB Dont'a Hightower & SS Mark Barron, with Jefferson completing 65% (26 of 40) for 322 YP, with 2 TDPs and no interceptions. And the fact that he is starting this game at QB and will (barring injury) likely play the whole game for Tigers, is part of the reason why we like LSU to ultimately win this game. But we don’t believe that even an improved offensive showing by both teams compared to that first game (it couldn’t be much worse) will be enough to push the total scoring past 41 points, unless, of course, the game goes to OT like it did last time. And while only 3 points were scored in the OT of that game and obviously did not affect the totals outcome, the college FB OT rules are very “Over-friendly,” as we have pointed out numerous times in supporting WUs for recent full game and partial game totals picks. And that’s really the ONLY reason why we are limiting this full game Under pick to two units, getting a ‘full” totals number here at 41. We also unofficially recommend both (i) playing Alabama Under 21.5 points on their individual team totals line and (ii) teasing the Under up even higher to 48, with LSU teased up to +8>, but again, use caution due to the possibility of this game going to OT, with these two teams appearing evenly matched.

January, 09 2012 8:30pm EST
FIRST QUARTER TOTAL: Under 7.5 (-125)
WIN for +1.6 unit(s)

FIRST QUARTER TOTAL: Under 7.5 (-125)

As stated in the supporting WU for our full game Under pick, we don’t believe that even an improved offensive showing by both teams compared to that first game (it couldn’t be much worse) will be enough to push the total scoring past 41 points, unless, of course, the game goes to OT like it did last time. But the beauty of this 1Q Under pick is that for partial game Under picks, overtime is irrelevant. And in further support of this 1Q under pick, we note that (i) in their two games TY against really good teams which did not have a frenetic five plays a minute offense (which excludes their games against Arkie, West Va and Oregon), LSU was 0-1-1 to the 1Q Under vs Alabama (with a scoreless 1Q) and Georgia (10 total 1Q points). Moreover, in the game between these two LY in Baton Rouge, only 3 total 1Q points and 10 total 1H points were scored before an avalanche of 35 second half points resulted in a 45 point totals push for the game. And as we have pointed out numerous times in supporting WUs for recent 1Q Under picks in both CFB and NFL, absent significant wind conditions (which will be non-existent indoors, in the Superdome), neither team has any real incentive to hurry up and score by the end of the 1Q, when they know they have a free time-out at the quarter break and plenty of time to score in the opening minute(s) of the 2Q. However, the down side of putting too much money on a 1Q under pick is that with the low totals line, one “freak” play can kill your 1Q Under play. Also note that in Alabama’s other game TY against a good team (Arkie, a team with a great offense but a defense nowhere near as good as LSU’s), the 1Q did go Over, with 14 total 1Q points, with a 7-7 tie after 1Q. But despite that one unfavorable 1Q totals result and the above mentioned risk of playing the 1Q Under, based on the above support, and not having to worry about OTs with our partial game under picks, we are including as part of our partial game Under betting attack strategy this two unit pick on the 1Q Under 7.5 points.
