New Mexico State Aggies vs UNLV Runnin' Rebels NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 11/23/24

We’ve got a total of 12 fights on the card for UFC 248 in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena. Two of the fights are for titles, as Israel Adesanya will try to defend the middleweight strap against Yoel Romero and women’s strawweight champ Zhang Weili faces off against former champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk.

Odds are posted across the market, but we will use the 5Dimes Sportsbook numbers as we break down this weekend’s fight card with a look at all 12 matches and some deeper detail on the five main card fights.

Action starts in the bantamweight division with Guido Cannetti at +115 against Danaa Batgerel. This is the second UFC fight for the -135 favorite Batgerel, who lost his debut back on August 31 against Alateng Heili. Cannetti is shaking off a lot of cage rust here with a layoff of 17 months since losing to Marlon Vera in November 2018. The long layoff seems to be the reason why Batgerel is such a clear favorite, as he didn’t exactly fight in top promotions before getting a UFC shot and Cannetti has five years worth of sporadic UFC appearances. I’d have to look at the underdog here if anything.

Giga Chikadze is +140 with Jamall Emmers at -160 in the next fight, which comes in the featherweight division. These are two newcomers to the card. Originally, the fight was supposed to be Douglas Silva de Andrade vs. Movsar Evloev, but both guys pulled out due to injury. Chikadze beat Brandon Davis by split decision in his UFC debut after a bit ground and pound flurry. This is the debut for Emmers, who lost to Julian Erosa back in June 2018 on the Dana White Contender Series. Emmers is the more accomplished and experienced fighter, but -160 seems a little steep here. If you want to get involved, I think the dog is the play.

The last fight on the prelim card, which is on ESPN+, is in the women’s strawweight division between Emily Whitmire and Polyana Viana. Viana is the -115 favorite after some initial action on her, but this looks to be a coin flip for all intents and purposes. This is definitely a concerning matchup for Whitmire. She has lost via submission twice in her last four fights and six of Viana’s 10 wins are by sub. All 10 of Viana’s wins are by stoppage. Whitmire is more of a win-by-decision kind of fighter. The move on Viana looks right here. She’s the side I’d go with.

Coverage of UFC 248 shifts to ESPN beginning with the matchup between Gerald Meerschaert and Deron Winn. Winn is a -140 favorite to bounce back after his loss to Darren Stewart. It was the first loss for Winn, who came in at 6-0 and it was of the split decision variety. This is an interesting fight for Winn because Meerschaert is the far more experienced fighter and Winn hasn’t seen anybody with a ground game remotely close to the +120 underdog’s activity on the canvas. There is also a huge size difference here with the 6-foot-1 Meerschaert and the 5-foot-6 Winn. Winn is the more athletic and faster fighter, but Meerschaert presents a lot of challenges. This is another one in which I lean to the dog side.

Rodolfo Vieira’s UFC debut was very impressive with a submission win over Oskar Piechota. Vieira is now a -750 favorite against Saparbeg Safarov. There really isn’t much to say about this fight. Safarov did win for the first time in three UFC tries in his last fight, but Vieira looks like a guy with a ceiling in the middleweight division. He’s the pick, but only as an open parlay piece multiplier.

Mark Madsen’s perfect record is on the line against Austin Hubbard in the lightweight division. Madsen is -220 to stay unblemished against Hubbard, who is 1-1 in his UFC career to this point. Hubbard was the LFA champion when he made the leap. Madsen is 35 already, so this isn’t a high-ceiling guy in the division and he beat Danilo Belluardo in his debut fight. The -220 price seems pretty high here in my estimation. Madsen’s wrestling game is top-notch as a silver medalist in Rio in 2016, but this will be a little bit stronger of a test as far as MMA fighters go. He should still win, but maybe the value is on Hubbard here.

The final fight on the prelims is between Sean O’Malley and Jose Quinonez. O’Malley is a -365 favorite, so it sure seems like the ESPN portion of the broadcast could be a bit of a dud if all of the big chalk holds up. O’Malley is a perfect 10-0 with seven stoppage wins, but he hasn’t been in the Octagon since March 3, 2018. These two were supposed to fight way back at UFC 229, but O’Malley was forced from the fight because of a positive test for ostarine. A follow-up test found residual ostarine, so he missed out on his fight against Marlon Vera. Now he gets his shot at Quinonez, who split his two 2019 fights. Given the price differences we usually see for guys off of long layoffs, the fact that we don’t really see one here is pretty telling. The favorite should hold up.

<strong>Max Griffin (+115) vs. Alex Oliveira (-135)</strong>

Max Griffin has dropped three of his last four fights and his only win came against Zelim Imadaev by majority decision in what was Imadaev’s UFC debut. While we have to consider that Griffin’s losses came against Alex Morono, Thiago Alves, and Curtis Millender, who are all solid fighters, we still have to look at the record. Those were all losses and all by decision. Griffin just wasn’t active or accurate enough to win.

Why would that be any different here against Alex Oliveira? Well, Oliveira may be firmly on the backside of his career with three straight losses to Gunnar Nelson, Mike Perry, and Nicolas Dalby. This is a huge fight for both guys. Griffin is 34 and Oliveira is an old 32 with 28 fights to his name. I’m not sure either guy is worthy of a bet in this one. The only thing that seems likely is that this one goes to decision, but you’re going to have to pay for the over 2.5 when round props come out. I’ll give the nod to the slight dog with what looks closer to a coin flip, but the over 2.5 makes more sense.

<strong>Pick: Max Griffin (+115)</strong>

<strong>Neil Magny (+155) vs. Li Jingliang (-175)</strong>

We haven’t heard from Neil Magny in a while. Once one of the most active fighters in the UFC, Magny has been out of action since November 17, 2018 when he lost via knockout to Santiago Ponzinibbio. Magny popped a positive test in advance of his fight against Vicente Luque and is now coming back off of the suspension. He certainly has a lot to prove against Li Jingliang, but he will have to do so as a pretty decent underdog at +155. Magny has lost to some really good fighters like Rafael Dos Anjos and Demian Maia since joining UFC. Is Jingliang in that category?

It seems like he is getting there. Jingliang has three straight wins, including a couple via knockout. His only UFC loss over the last 4+ years came against Jake Matthews. Jingliang hasn’t fought the caliber of fighters that Magny has and the underdog has a big reach advantage in this fight. The long layoff is working against Magny here and it may take him a little time to get back into rhythm. Jingliang is the look here, but once Magny shakes off the rust, he’ll be a buy low candidate.

<strong>Pick: Li Jingliang (-175)</strong>

<strong>Drakkar Klose (+150) vs. Beneil Dariush (-170)</strong>

Drakkar Klose has bounced back rather nicely from his first career loss. David Teymur beat him back at UFC 218 in December 2017. Since then, Klose has won three straight fights, all by unanimous decision. He finds himself a sizable underdog here against Beneil Dariush, though. Klose is stepping up in class a little and this is only his second fight in 16 months. These two were supposed to fight back in July, but the fight was pushed back due to an injury for Dariush.

Now the fight is on, as Dariush also rides a three-fight winning streak into action. He’s won his last two fights by submission, including a first-round stoppage against Frank Camacho last time out. Dariush has always bee a guy with a really high ceiling in this division, but every time he starts to reach new heights, he falls back. This is a must-win type of fight for him if he wants to keep advancing and he should get it.

<strong>Pick: Beneil Dariush (-170)</strong>

<strong>Joanna Jedrzejczyk (+145) vs. Zhang Weili (-165)</strong>

Joanna Jedrzejczyk has been eagerly awaiting this moment since April 7, 2018. That is when Joanna lost the women’s strawweight championship to Rose Namajunas. She fought Valentina Shevchenko for the vacant women’s flyweight belt and lost for the third time in four fights. A win over Michelle Waterson set up this title shot with Zhang Weili. For Joanna, this is a chance to get back to the mountaintop.

For Zhang, this is a chance to fight for a country, for a title, and for herself. Zhang left China early because of the coronavirus concerns and bounced from Thailand to Abu Dhabi to the US for the fight. The unconventional schedule may be a little bit tougher for Zhang, but she is 4-0 in her UFC career and just knocked out Jessica Andrade for the title.

Still, Joanna is the best 115-pound female fighter we’ve ever seen. Maybe Zhang is on her way to that level, but it is hard to say that she is there now. Joanna has fought the best this division has to offer. I have to look at the fighter that I think is a very live dog here.

<strong>Pick: Joanna Jedrzejczyk (+145)</strong>

<strong>Yoel Romero (+240) vs. Israel Adesanya (-280)</strong>

Israel Adesanya looks for his second title defense in this matchup against Yoel Romero. The press conference was lighthearted and fun, but these two guys will be all business when they get into the Octagon. Romero is 42 years old and this is probably it for him as far as title shots go. It almost seems like a legacy nod that he gets one after back-to-back losses to Robert Whittaker and Paulo Costa. Romero missed weight in the loss to Whittaker and still fell short.

Adesanya is a special fighter. He’s fast. He’s powerful. He’s smart. He has a great cage IQ. He’s won by decision and he’s won by violent knockout. He’s got a tremendous ceiling in this middleweight division and he should add another title defense here. It would be a great story to see Romero win, especially in what could very well be his last fight, but Adesanya is faster, stronger, and a lot bigger. It’s too much for Romero to handle.

<strong>Pick: Israel Adesanya (-280)</strong>

There are now 32 teams in the NFL, and the league is broken up into two conferences and eight total divisions. Since the league just continues to be more and more popular, the league has added an extra regular season game for each team to play in.

NFL teams now play 17 total regular season games, and then the top seven teams in each conference advance to the postseason. The NFL regular season begins in September, and the Super Bowl is now played during the month of February.

When it comes to the NFL, the Super Bowl is the event that draws the most betting attention. This league isn’t going away anytime soon, and it’s actually started to become more of an international competition.

This article will not only cover the best NFL betting sites &amp; sportsbooks, but will also provide some tips on how to bet on the NFL.

Major League Baseball (MLB) might not be the most popular sport in the world to wager on, but it still presents a really good betting option. MLB betting comes in many different forms, and this is a season that presents plenty of betting opportunities as well.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.

TCU Horned Frogs vs Utah Utes Betting Pick & Prediction 10/19/24

<p>The Eastern Conference Finals begin Wednesday night when the eighth seed Miami Heat visit the top seed Boston Celtics. Boston enters this series as big favorites to advance, but never count out Jimmy Butler and the Heat in the playoffs. Below is my NBA pick for the Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-miami-heat-vs-boston-celtics-betting-pick"><a></a><a></a>Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics Betting Pick</h2>



<p>The Pick: Boston Celtics -8.0</p>



<p>This game will be played at TD Garden at 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 17, 2023.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-why-bet-the-boston-celtics"><a></a>Why Bet the Boston Celtics:</h2>



<p>✅ Boston has covered the spread in 12 of their last 17 games played.</p>



<p>✅ The Celtics have won 11 of their last 16 games overall.</p>



<p>✅ At home, the Celtics have won 11 of their last 14 at TD Garden, but they did lose two of their four home games in the second round.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-miami-heat-never-give-up"><a></a>Miami Heat Never Give Up</h2>



<p>Miami was one game away from not making it out of the play-in tournament, but a few weeks later and they are now in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat upset the top seed Milwaukee Bucks in the first round and followed that up with a series win over the fifth seed New York Knicks.</p>



<p>Jimmy Butler has been fantastic these playoffs as he leads the Heat with 31.1 points, 5.4 assists, and 1.7 steals per game. The next closest Heat player, in regards to points, is Bam Adebayo who is averaging 18.1 through 11 games. Adebayo also leads Miami with 9.2 rebounds per game. Eight different Heat players are averaging double-digit points through the first two rounds. A total team effort by Miami.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-boston-celtics-are-a-confusing-team">The Boston Celtics Are a Confusing Team</h2>



<p>Boston has been a hard team to figure out these playoffs as they have struggled in both of their series wins. The Celtics needed six games to knock out the seventh seed Atlanta Hawks and needed to come back from 3-2 down to get past the third seed Philadelphia 76ers. Boston may be getting into form and that could be trouble for the Heat.</p>



<p>Jayson Tatum had a historic game seven in the second round, and he has been the leader for Boston these playoffs. Tatum leads the way with 28.2 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game. Al Horford has added a team high of 1.3 steals and 2.2 blocks. Jaylen Brown has been solid this postseason as he is averaging 24.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.4 assists through 13 games.</p>

Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics Game 1 Betting Pick - 05/17/23

<h3><strong>TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS at WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM, 8:15 PM ET (Saturday)</strong></h3>
<h4><strong><a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline">BetOnline</a> NFL Playoff Odds: Bucs -8 (-104), Total 44.5 (Over -115, Under -105)</strong></h4>
It isn't all that difficult to make a case for Tampa Bay, when you look at this thing on paper. After all, the Bucs have so many receivers that you can't hardly cover them all. Mike Evans is the only one who went beyond 1000 yards, but that's because it gets spread around so well (he is listed questionable, but fully intends to play). Chris Godwin (840 yards) made the Pro Bowl last season, Scott Miller (501 yards) is a consistent outlet, and of course we all know about Antonio Brown, who reached 45 receptions, which made Tom Brady very happy. Then there's Rob Gronkowski, who had 45 catches and seven TD's after coming out of retirement.

And speaking of Brady, at age 43, he still finished third in the NFL in passing yards (4633) with 40 touchdowns. And he was sacked only 21 times, which we suppose is pretty good news against this Washington defense. He's got the running backs if he wants them (Leonard Fournette and Ronald Jones, who had 978 yards). And Brady did not "short-arm" the ball either; he threw it an average of 9.1 yards beyond the scrimmage line, which was highest among NFL quarterbacks. That, of course, is a reflection not only on the receivers he has at his disposal but also the philosophy of coach Bruce Arians, who doesn't necessarily believe in a lot of "west coast offense."

With totals of 47 and 44 points in their last two games against Detroit and Atlanta, at least they show that they are in decent form, if not the subject of a lot of resistance.

And the Bucs defend well, especially the run, as they are perhaps the best overall in the NFL at doing that. Football Outsiders has an overall efficiency metric called "Adjusted Line Yards," and they are #1 in that measurement. They also "stuff" the opposition's ground attack (i.e., prevent them from getting back to the line of scrimmage) at the second highest frequency rate in the league.

So as the dust has settled on a tumultuous regular season, is there a case to be made for the Team Formerly Known as the Redskins?

Well, <a href="http://bangthebook.com/s/betonline"><strong>BetOnline</strong> </a>patrons may be interested in knowing that home dogs have covered 15 of the last 21 in the NFL playoffs, so we should mention that. We should take note of some of the teams who, like Washington, came to the post-season with a losing record. One of the teams that won in that situation was the 2014 Carolina Panthers, who beat the Arizona Cardinals (albeit a Cards team down to a fourth-string QB). But there is irony here, as Carolina was coached by Ron Rivera, while Arians was on the sideline for Arizona.

Smith, back from 17 different operations on his leg (you've heard all about it by now), ultimately replaced the since-released Dwayne Haskins and has not lit it up that often. Sure, he's completed 66.7% (two-thirds) of his passes, but he's averaged just 6.2 yards per attempt, and has more INT's (8) than TD's (6). And while Brady throws it 9.1 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, Smith throws it just 5.1 yards.

Yet he is 5-1 as the starter, while the Washingtonians are 4-8 in the other games, showing us they are better than their record indicates.... maybe.

The backfield combo isn't bad with rookie Antonio Gibson and JD McKissic, who seem to complement each other's skills, and Terry McLaurin has 1118 receiving yards, more than anyone on the Tampa Bay side. Logan Thomas might have been a good emergency QB, if not for the fact that he has so much value as a tight end (72 catches).

But would the "WFT" be here had Doug Pederson not yanked Jalen Hurts in favor of Nate Sudfeld last week?

Good question.

But since we have moved on from that, let's look at this Washington defense, which measures up in about every way possible. They are behind only the Rams and Steelers when it comes to points AND yards allowed per drive; they are forcing punts on 40% of their opponents' possessions; they are fifth in stuff rate, fourth in sack percentage, and brilliant in the red zone, where they have yielded touchdowns only 53.5 % of the time.

In other words, their stop unit is elite.

And let's note that when encountered by pretty good defenses, the Bucs have often faltered. Against the group of teams that includes the Saints, Rams, Bears and Packers, for example, they have averaged 284 yards against those teams. That isn't championship material. And you can argue that Washington has a better defense than all of them.

So the moral of the story (and for morals, we won't consult with Daniel Snyder) is that Washington has enough going for it to keep this one pretty tight. That means we take the points.
