[TheBeholdah]

bout to head to work and miss all afternoon games again

fanchise= laying off oakland for that reason,. they got walloped in those earlier games vs major conference teams

I know what you mean about ubiles going 1 on 1 too much, that **** wont fly vs purdue's defense, thats why i tihnk purdue is right side, but again. having a hard time wagering a team that is capable of an 11 point half. that was so pathetic.

i think im going to leave it at these 2 for now and will probly take that over later, already got a real risky bet on clemson, hpoing rebounding domination is the difference there. treadomg lightly as these matchups are really hard for me to figure out. hopefully gets a bit easier sat and sunday

I agree with a lot of your leans today.

X - I think the lines short because Minny is from the Big 10 and they have great computer numbers. But I think X matches up well with any BCS school with their size and talent. X lost some tough road games but their road schedule was much tougher than Minny's.

I'm with you on AM (same thoughts), Wofford (same thought), Houston over(I think this game could get 80+ in each half), as for the ACC teams I just don't have a good feel for them. I don't have a feeling that they are going to perform really great in the tourney but I do think each of the teams got relatively favorable matchups except GT. GT did beat Maryland last week and played them tough in college park but I don't see anything else that leads me to believe which of those two teams will plan on showing up based on their road performances.

Curius for your thoughts on Oakland? I haven't seen them but the line seems to be asking for a play but when I look at the numbers I see a blowout for Pitt as Oakland has been destroyed in every matchup against a BCS team.

And I think Purdue just had a bad game last time out. I have seen Siena a handful of times and they aren't nearly as good as with KennY Hasbrouck. Edwin Ubiles takes it 1 on 1 too much and they depend on that for too many baskets against decent defense. I expect Purdue to cause them real problems on that end of the court today.

so far

1 unit each

Wofford+10

Clemson-1.5

i can see clem backfiring on me, but i really think they crush mizzou on the glass and mizzou cant guard booker., just gotta hope they dont turn it over every possession

woff-wisc should be a really lowscoring game and i like catching double digit points.

[TheBeholdah]

i want to back purdue also, a veteran team that plays great defense, siena doesnt face teams that D up like purdue. however, hard to justify a play on a team capable of an 11 point half

[TheBeholdah]

nice of vandy to shoot 54% from the line when they are usually a 73% plus FT shooting as a team.

Funny thing is how the ball boucnes. If that ball is ruled off of Murray they go to the line with a chance to win and push the spread. instead they end up going home alltogether.

didnt even see the game cuz of work, but that squad is too talented to go out like that. hate how the books reeled me in with that soft line. wish vandy proved them wrong

tomorrow im considering xavier, tex a+m, wofford, oakland, maryland over, g tech, and clemson. but who the hell knows. headin out for a bit, back around midnite to try and figure out what teams wont let me down. flyers or anybody feel free to offer insight on any of the leans i mentioned.

mizzou ended the year very poorly and clemson should have their way inside, should crush mizzou on the boards.

A+M plays tough teams all year and are a solid team, i think utah st is a little overrated

Wofford held their own in tough out of conference schedule, will be low scoring game where points 10 points could come in handy, but worried about wiscy's defense being too much for them.

Prior to a little run in the big 10 tourney, minny was very mediocre for most of the year. xavier is very solid all around team, somethign just doesnt feel right here

Ok st is a great home team but is a different team when not in their own gym for the most part. G tech closed the season very strong, but they are very inconsistent.

Maryland vs houston should be a fast paced game., i dont see how houston holds maryland under 85 points, and huoston can fill it up with coleman and lewis. as long as they can hang around i see this getting in the 160's.

piece of **** squad vandy is...

[joepa66]

GL Beholdah.....love to 'Dores today! :thumbs:
Thinking about sliding in with Gator play. I think they lose but keep it close.......

[TheBeholdah]

risky stonybrook bet backfired. sucks wont be able to watch the afternoon games cuz of work.

flyers- been thinkin over these games a ton and talked myself out of old dom. i think the irish are so beatable but im afraid im overvaluing odu, they came up short in most of their other games vs good teams and nd's run really was impressive.

byu has the perfect opponent to end their tourney losing streek. florida completely backed into this tourney and really hasnt dome much this year to make think they arent really beatble. fredette finds a way to get this done, hopefully by 6+.

1 unit

BYU-5

[TheBeholdah]

2 units

Vandy-3

1 unit


the more ive looked at this game, i am jumping back on Vandy bandwagon, they cashed for me most of the year til late. it is true that murray has played really weak schedule, Vandy best team theyve seen, so many scoring options.

[FlyersFan]

what are you thinking tomorrow?

I am liking Purdue, Richmond, Purdue Under 1H and possibly ODU, BYU and Vandy.

A lot of games tomorrow lined in the 2-4 point range which pretty much means you better think the dog is winning if you are giong to play them. SDSU, USU and UNLV are the (3) i'm looking hard at right now.

Total wise like PUR 1H under as mentioned...like the UNLV/UNI 1H under as well. I expect some titusbungitus in some of these games shooting wise.

[TheBeholdah]

i got stonybrook+6 actually, dude got me a weak line.

so my official play is

1 unit Brook+6

[TheBeholdah]

brook is 1 unit play, didnt specify above
