Minny at Miami -2.0
Tubbys squad is just not a good road team, posting
only one road win over a RPI top 100 team in 2 years
(amazing stat) I am thinking Miami wins this by 8



BC at Michigan -5.5
BC has a few players banged up, Michigan at
home and should beat BC by 7



Duke at Wisky +4.0
Duke is 10-0 in the ACC Challenge games
and will move that to 11-0 as the point guard
play of Wisky struggels vs Dukes defense

FSU at Ohio State -7.0
Best team out there in the Big 10 with evan turner
leading the buckeyes. Ohio State will roll in this
game by 15.

Illinois at Clemson -4.5

Until future Notice Illinois will not talk of
the top 20 until we grow up.

Clemson is more athletic this year than last
The Beast Trevor Booker could have a double double
by half time vs Illinois. Illinois is soft in the paint
and until they toughen up teams will exploit this
as evidenced by Utah and a Mid Major Bradley.

Clemson by 8

My thoughts from the Floor

Decent night for me last night but could have been better if NC State would have won.

2 early ones for me--

Duquense +6 vs. Pitt...Nice home dog on pesky duqunse team in rilvary game.

Wofford +4 at Western Carolina...I think this should be a ok game but I will galdly take the points.

Although Carpet like Miami-FL, I am leaning toward Minny +3 myself. just trying to find out a few more things. i think they have played better competition so far.

[natty]

Woodie- I liked Minny until I researched a little more. Don't forget, They are traveling from Anaheim to Miami, FL. That travel in it self took me off them. Will most likely watch that one to see how it plays out.

Rhode Island +4 2*

I'll be back later with more.

Natty

[woodee12]

Yeah, i am going to pass on that one too. Minny is one of those teams i cannot seem to figure out (aka colorado in football, and the Utah Jazz in hoops) and always seem to be on the wrong side of.

Looked at that Rhode Island play too, and may add that.

For all the games on the baord tonight, I am having as tough time finding much I like.

Kind of like UNI + at Iowa State.

[zshimer]

Playing- Dayton -4 over Miami OH. Both played Towson, Dayton won by 5 and Miami lost by 9. Forward Chris Wright should be too much for Miami OH to handle inside. Good luck

[woodee12]

here's the rest of my card--I played these ealrier so I don't don't know where the nuimbers are currently at.

Dayton/Miami-OH UNDER 134...Dayton plays some D and Mia cannot really score. Dayton should cover the 4 too.

San Diego +1 over SD State..Siding with the home team here. And you know I love this SD team.

Utah State -1 over BYU...Home court agian helps this one out. Pretty long winning streak for USTate too I believe.

Ark-LR +3 over Mizz State...Just have a feeling that Mo State may be over looking these guys on thier home turf. Saragin has ALR sch strength at 49 and Mo State's at 310, so they have played a few better opponents.

ML "State" parlay...

Iowa State pk
Ohio State pk...appx. -120 odds on the parlay.



Plays that didn't make the cut---


Western Kentucky +6.5 over So Car
Drexel +10

Good Luck!!

The Biggest comeback in Illinois basketball History Tonight

Illinois down by 23 vs Clemson in the second half
comes back and stuns clemson with the loss.

This is a young team and at half time the entire
world thought they would pack it in and try to
get better in the next practice.

Coach Weber would not let this young team
lay down....Weber has played a Zone defense 10
times in 7 years but he played zone 5 times tonight
to contain the monster big man of clemson.

Illini nation is awake again..............

[dragon1952]

I don't think I have ever been on the right side of a Duke outcome

[woodee12]

Awesome win for Illinois!!!

One thing that pisses me off more than a .01 back door cover (ala colorado vs. the huskers) is a loss by a 6 point fk'ing dog in god damn double OT.

Thank you DUQUENSE...I hope you suck the rest of the year!!!!!!!

BS, holy shit, and %^&%^&*W#%^#DGFC&%^&#%^#^#&!!!

And...Thats all I got.. BS.

Plus Iowa State lost in a game they had in hand. CRAPPy POOP.

But besides that a decent night...

[woodee12]

and it gets worse...I angered the gamblling Gods now...

SD is down 0-8 in OT.

I will keep my bitching to a min before my last game is done now..

I guess you can say I capped it right until OT to put a nice spin on it.
