20 DIMER - BOISE STATE BRONCOS

On the surface this looks like an "inflated" number against a Utah State team that has some offense, and should be able to trade points for a while with the yielding Broncos.

Still, my money is on Boise to handle matters on the road, as the Broncs have done a nice job when laying the big wood recently, sporting an 8-3-1 mark as a favorite of 20-points or more their last 12 tries.

Boise State is playing for a spot in a BCS bowl game, and there has been plenty of talk that they are not worthy of a spot based on some of their wins showing the opposition with big chunks of yards.

My gut tells me the public will jump all over this "inflated" price, but in the end Boise will cover this impost.

The Broncos are 7-0 straight up the last 7 series meetings, and have gone 6-0-1 against the spread in that span.

Make it 8-0, and 7-0-1 boys!

10 DIMER - BOSTON CELTICS

1st meeting since Orlando took out Boston in a 7th game blowout last May in the postseason, and I am liking the Celtics to get some regular season revenge.

Boston has been slumping, splitting their last 6 straight up, while going just 1-6 against the spread in their last 7 games, but Orlando is now without Jameer Nelson, and the Magic are definitely going to miss his presence tonight.

Orlando is just 5-14 against the spread their last 19 in Beantown, and the host is on a 25-12 spread run the last 27 series meetings.

Boston rights their ship with the cover tonight.

Lay it!
