This is an 8* ATS BLOWOUT on Nebraska Omaha.

Nebraska Omaha fell to 2-6 after its 91-49 loss to Colorado last night. Now it's right back in action on Thursday and while I'm not calling for an outright upset, I do think that the Mavericks will keep it close enough to easily sneak in through the back door.

Wyoming comes in complacent after its four-game win streak. On paper, clearly Wyoming is the better team.

But sports betting for me is about picking and choosing great "situations." And when those "play on" teams also have what I feel to be a favorable line for it, then those are the types of contests that I'm always on the look out for.

The season just started and these teams are still fresh despite the back-to-back scenario, so I'm throwing the fatigue factor out the window. I think the Mavericks come in hungry and unintimidated and I look for them to keep this one tight as it comes down the stretch.

No outright, but closer than expected. Grab the points.

Good luck, NP
