Monday night gave bettors a buzzer-beater in Cincinnati and an empty-net dagger in Edmonton, and Tuesday answers with the best college basketball night of the young season. The bad beats below are from Monday, November 9. The big games are tonight, Tuesday, November 10, and all times are Central.

Tonight’s big games

Florida at Florida State, 5:00 PM. The top-ranked Gators take their 2-0 record to Tallahassee for the rivalry game, and the market has Florida as a 9.5-point favorite with a total of 164.5 at ESPN. Florida State is also 2-0, and a home upset here would shake up the early polls.

Duke vs. Michigan State, 6:00 PM. The State Farm Champions Classic opens at the United Center in Chicago with No. 2 Duke against No. 6 Michigan State, both 2-0. Duke is a 6.5-point favorite with a total of 148.5 at DraftKings, and the winner leaves Chicago with an early statement win.

Colorado at Toronto, 6:00 PM. The Avalanche are the road favorite at minus 162 on the moneyline at BetRivers, with Toronto at plus 135. The short price says the market sees this one as close.

Milwaukee at New York, 6:30 PM. The Knicks are 15.5-point favorites at FanDuel with a total of 219.5, and that number tells the story of two teams going in opposite directions. Milwaukee is 1-9 and has lost six in a row, while the Knicks have won three straight.

Boston at Philadelphia, 7:00 PM. The two best records in the East meet at Xfinity Mobile Arena, with the 9-2 76ers hosting the 8-2 Celtics. Boston is a 1.5-point road favorite with a total of 217.5 at FanDuel, and the winner takes sole possession of first place in the conference.

Illinois at Texas Tech, 7:00 PM. No. 3 Illinois puts its 2-0 record on the line in Lubbock against a Texas Tech team that is also 2-0. Illinois is a 1.5-point favorite with a total of 160.5 at DraftKings, and the Red Raiders will be without forward JT Toppin, who is out with a knee injury.

LA Clippers at Phoenix, 8:00 PM. The Suns are 4.5-point favorites with a total of 226.5. Phoenix is 3-6 and coming off a 122-96 loss to San Antonio on Monday, so the market is asking the Suns to bounce back at home.

Kansas vs. Kentucky, 8:30 PM. The Champions Classic nightcap pairs two blue bloods at the United Center, and Kansas is a 4.5-point favorite at DraftKings with a total of 155.5. The line opened at Kansas minus 5.5 and has come down a point, which is the kind of early move that tells you the money liked Kentucky at the opener.

Last night’s bad beats

Minnesota 63, Cincinnati 61. Cincinnati closed as a 6.5-point favorite at the Action Network with a total of 143.5, and the Bearcats led 61-54 with 2:37 to play. Cincinnati did not score again. The Bearcats missed the front end of one-and-one free throws on two straight trips in the final 10 seconds, and Minnesota forward Bobby Durkin buried a three-pointer with 0.4 seconds left to finish a 9-0 run and win the game outright. Cincinnati moneyline and spread tickets were both dead before the buzzer sounded.

Dallas 125, Indiana 122. The Mavericks opened as 2.5-point favorites and the line steamed all the way to 4.5 at FanDuel by tipoff, and the late money got burned. Dallas won by three, so every ticket laid at the closing number lost even though the Mavericks won the game, and Cooper Flagg’s 43 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists were not enough to get Dallas home by five. The total closed at 227.5 and finished at 247, so the over was never in doubt.

Edmonton 3, New York Rangers 1. The Oilers closed as minus 155 favorites with a total of 6.5, and the Rangers were plus 1.5 on the puck line at minus 198. New York trailed 2-1 late and pulled its goalie on a power play for a six-on-four advantage, and Edmonton forward Leon Draisaitl scored a short-handed empty-net goal with 1:13 left to make it 3-1. The goal flipped the puck line in the final minute and ended a three-game Rangers winning streak.

Betting news

New York set a monthly handle record in October. The state’s eight mobile sportsbooks took $2.79 billion in wagers, according to the New York State Gaming Commission, beating the old record of $2.64 billion from October 2025 by 5.5 percent. Gross revenue was $258.1 million, a hold of 9.26 percent, and Fanatics led the growth with handle up 56 percent to $321.4 million.

DraftKings reported third-quarter revenue of $1.33 billion, up 16 percent from a year ago. The company lost $468.7 million in the quarter as spending rose, including investment in its Predictions business, and it raised full-year revenue guidance to a range of $6.35 billion to $6.55 billion. Sports revenue rose 31.5 percent to $783.6 million, and monthly unique payers grew 13 percent to 4.1 million.

The second College Football Playoff rankings come out tonight. The committee reveals its updated top 25 at 8:00 PM Central on ESPN, and the order is expected to shuffle after Notre Dame beat Miami 31-24 and Utah beat BYU 28-20 in Week 10. Georgia is the projected new No. 1, and the new rankings will reprice playoff and title futures before Saturday’s Week 11 slate.

Thirty-seven states backed New York in the Kalshi fight. A coalition of 37 states filed an amicus brief on Monday in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, supporting New York regulators in their dispute with Kalshi over sports event contracts. A ruling for the states would put real limits on where those contracts can be offered.
