Free Pick: Samford +8.0 (-110) - Sat. Feb. 21, 2009 7:00p

The Samford Bulldogs have been a covering machine this season, and we look for them to cover this rather big spot when they visit the Chattanooga Moccasins tonight. After hitting a bid of a skid, Samford has rebounded with back-to-back double digit wins, easily covering the spread on each occasion to improve to a hearty 13-7, 65.0 percent against the spread this season. They are also in a revenge spot after losing at home to the Moccasins two weeks ago, and while the Bulldogs are just 3-9 straight up on the road, they are a very respectable 5-4 ATS in those games.

Chattanooga is 10-6 in Southern Conference play and 14-13 overall, but they are under .500 ATS at 11-12. The key to this contest is that the Moccasins defense ranks just 255 in effective field goal percentage allowed according to the Pomeroy Ratings and 207 in two-point percentage allowed. Well, those just happen to be strong suits for the Samford offense, as their 53.5 effective field goal percentage ranks a very nice 33 in the nation. Amazingly, they rank fourth in the land with a 55.9 percent two-point percentage! Look for the Bulldogs to score enough points here to cover this spot.

Free Pick: Wyoming -4.5 - Sat. Feb. 21, 2009 3:30p

TCU was a great story in December and early January, as first year head coach Jim Christian took a ragtag team in a bottom tier program and got them to overachieve to the tune of a 13-6 SU record in their first 19 games. But the reality of Mountain West play has caught up with the Horned Frogs in recent weeks. TCU has lost six of their last seven, failing to cover a single pointspread in any defeat; their lone victory came at home over bottom feeder Air Force. The early season confidence is gone; the execution on both ends of the court has faded (40 percent shooting, 52 percent shooting allowed during this skid).

TCU was an eight point favorite over Wyoming in the first meeting, but they needed overtime to escape with the one point home victory. This time around, the Cowboys will be primed for revenge in Laramie, where they have been dominant all year, to the tune of a 14-1 SU mark, including an upset win over UNLV in their last outing. The Cowboys are a perfect 5-0 ATS in their last five tries as a favorite. After a brutal five game stretch against the five Mountain West elites, this home game against TCU is a prime spot for Wyoming to exert their dominance over a weaker foe. (No. 546) Take Wyoming. - Courtesy of Ted Sevransky
