  • SATURDAY NCAA PLAYS ...ILLINOIS + 7.0 vs Wisky

    It is a beautiful day in Carpet land, the sun is
    shinning, Illinois punches thier dance card
    posting 23 wins for the season....

    Today Illinois plays Wisconsin at the United
    Center and Wisky is a 7.0 chalk...

    A Look at Illinois

    Fresh off a big overtime victory over
    Indiana many fans are afraid that fatigue
    may take its toll on the Illini today...

    Illinois has won 18 straight games at the
    United Center, this is considered by many
    a home game for Illinois.

    The unusual clamp down defense Illinois
    plays smothers opponents on the offensive end...

    Wisky beat Illinois 74-62 at Illinois, (Pruit of Illinois
    scored 19 points and banged 13 boards) Illinois
    will have a big advantage inside today vs Wisky

    If Illinois hits their free throws, limit silly
    turnovers, they certainly have a legitimate
    shot of beating Wisky...

    A LOOK AT WISKY

    This game for the Badgers will be a true road
    game vs Illinois

    Alonso Tucker of Wisky, will get his 20 points
    their is no stopping this player all game...

    Wisky is thin inside especially with the loss
    of Brian Butch...

    Wisky is 1-3-1 ATS vs Illinois last 5 games

    CARPETS PICK

    These two teams will play each other
    tough, I look for a real defensive struggle
    for both teams in this game....

    This Semi-Sweet Big Ten final game
    will stay closer that 7 points....

    ILLINOIS + 7.0

    Good Luck all

          carpet,
          you got my deepest sympathies. what a nightmare it must be to be a true fan of that team. how hideous to watch they are. this was my first time watching them (since i bet them) and i dont know how you can stomach watching the ineptness of the offense (use that term VERY loosely). nothing but a bunch of brick laying turnover machines. the defense is really good but jeezuz h christ, a sorrier excuse for an offense i have never seen. true ratings killers these guys are.

            Anybody got an idea about the Long Beach/ Cal Poly SLO game.

            I have watched LBS once and they play sloppy, but high scoring basketball. Take a ton of 3 pters and play porous defense.

            Cal Poly seems to play the same style 3 pter game, but play seemingly better defense.

            LBS won by 3 at CPSLO and by 7 at home this season. LBS hasn't lost SU in a few years.

            My guess is 4.5 is to many pts in this game, im thinking a 2 to 3 pt game on neutral ground.

            My thoughts are Long Beach -180 ML

            I have also looked at the over, but this really depends on whether both teams are on... its at 153 and its been U all but once (their last meeting).

            Anyone have any ideas?

                Hart Attack ,,, Thanks for the kind words

                Illinois on offense is like watching a 90 year old
                man change a flat tire ...You wonder if a first if it
                can get done than later when.....

                Illinois lands a 12th seed, excatly where I saw them

                  I am loving V Tech against Illinois. Think the Big 10 got extremely lucky getting all of those teams in. Think they should have only got 4 in.

                  May go against the big 10's last few entries in the 1st round.

                  Zona vs. Purdue,VT over Illinois, Marquette over MSU, Zaga over Indy.

                  Does anyone else think this? Really OSu and Wiscy are the only solid teams. Maybe I am woring but I watched a ton of big 10 games this year and I feel they are inferior to the ACC and Big East.

                  Same with the Big 12, with the exception of KU and Texas, and A &M. But could see A & M getting stunned early.

                    Hold your thoughts on the VT Illinois game
                    Woodie I have been under the rug looking at this game
                    and the info I have found I am sure you will
                    find interesting for this match up

                      I'm leaning towards V-Tech, and Marquette, but the Indiana-Gonzaga match-up figures to be a goodie.............In the other game, I like Purdue to nail Arizona to the floor...........Arizona just hasn't been the same dangerous force that we've been accustomed to seeing over the past years............I'm on the Boilermakers.
