After a wild 24-hour hoopathon to kickstart the new college basketball season, we have a lighter slate on Tuesday. However, there's enough to work with to form a CBB parlay, and I'm expecting Tennessee to dominate Wofford. The Volunteers boast tons of talent and depth this season, and should highlight their national championship credentials in this one, with head coach Rick Barnes holding a 10-1 record at home. Tennessee posted a +12.6 rebounding margin last season and should keep Wofford in check.
To wrap up today's college basketball parlay, I'm backing the Under in Drexel vs Virginia. UVA likes to operate at a slow pace, which should result in fewer possessions and fewer scoring opportunities for both teams. Drexel also likes to take its time, so don't expect a fast and furious matchup here. Both of these teams regularly cashed unders last season, and that trend should continue tonight.
With the NBA off tonight, the spotlight is on the ice, and I've cooked up an NHL parlay for Tuesday's action, starting with a goalfest between the Mammoth and Maple Leafs. Both of these teams have been hot on offense and struggled on defense. Toronto is averaging 3.75 goals per game, which ranks fourth in the NFL, while Utah is in seventh with a 3.60 average. Leafs goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky has allowed 3+ goals in nine of his 10 starts this season, while Utah goalie Karel Vejmelka is experiencing some regression. Expect plenty of goals from both teams in this one.
Next on our NHL parlay, I'm backing the Canadiens to beat the Jets in regulation. Winnipeg has been on a four-game road trip and so far it's been a disaster, with the Jets getting outscored 18-6 and losing 7-0 to the Hurricanes last time. Winnipeg is winless in its last nine games, with seven of those defeats coming in regulation. With the Canadiens on a five-game win streak, expect them to dominate the Jets tonight.
To round off tonight's NHL parlay, I'm taking the Lightning to win in regulation against the Red Wings. Detroit just beat Florida last night, but being on a back-to-back is far from ideal for them, especially with the Dylan Larkin situation still hanging over them. The Lightning are 8-3-2 and have been hot on offense, averaging 3.69 goals per game. They should be able to get the job done against a fatigued Red Wings team.
MACtion is back, and we're celebrating with a two-leg college football parlay tonight! Let's kick things off by taking Buffalo to stay within a touchdown of Miami (Ohio). Both teams have lost only once in conference play so far, and crucially they both like to lean on the run when it comes to offense. That should lead to fewer possessions and therefore gives the Bulls more scope to keep things close. Buffalo has been sturdy against the run this season and should do enough to at least keep this game close.
To round off tonight's college football MACtion parlay, I like Ohio to dominate Akron and remain unbeaten. The Bobcats lead the MAC in defense, holding opponents to under 13 points per game. Akron is the third-worst in the MAC in scoring, so Ohio should have little trouble shutting them down here. The Zips have lost three of their four conference games by at least two touchdowns, and their opponents scored at least 34 points in each of those defeats. There's no reason why Ohio can't do the same, and I can't see Akron matching them scoring-wise.
