GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted February 21, 2007 Is anyone watching the LSU-Kentucky game? Did the announcer just say that Kentucky needs to get their sh1t together? No I was following the Texas /Texas Tech game hoping to get a halftime spread, but it looks like a blowout in Texas's favor early on. Looking at this score, maybe Kentucky should get their sh1t together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted February 21, 2007 Anyone making a call on this Airforce at UNLV game? It's UNLV -3 or Air Force +3 Anyone have a feel for this game ? Edit: Going with UNLV moneyline 1 unit.... Expensive, but Air Force, I've been reading, doesn't play very good defense on the road. Seems like UNLV -3 wouldn't be a bad bet, but I hate laying the lumber. Edit: Adding Kentucky -7 1 unit at the half even though Kentucky is only 2-6 when losing at the half this year. Come on, Kentucky ended that half on an 18-3 run. I'd say they figured things out. So Kentucky has to win by 7 to collect or win by 6 to push. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teejay booker 0 Posted February 22, 2007 This is the first time that I have posted my picks in this thread. I have been following you guys for a while and would like to contribute. 2/22 Games Davidson -12.5 - Winner Davidson can wrap up the Southern Conference #1 seed with a win tonight against Furman. In their last game, Davidson won by 8 at Furman. Furman has come off some tough losses lately, losing 2 of their last 3 by a combined 5 points. In their most recent game, they lost in OT at home against a pretty good Charleston team. I figure that they will be hanging their heads in this game, with little to play for as they hover in the middle of the pack in the conference. Davidson, meanwhile has been cleaning house, winning 9 of 10 (with their only loss against a good Appalachian State team), and covering in 7 of those games. Furthermore, Furman relies heavily on the 3-point shot, and in the past 5 games, they have been shooting terribly (34%). The trends also point to Davidson in this game. Furman is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 as a road dog, and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as a road dog of 7.0-13. Meanwhile, Davidson is 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games versus a team with a winning SU record, and 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games as a favorite. All reasons to go with Davidson. Hofstra -12.5 - Loser Hofstra is a bubble team for the NCAA tournament playing against a terrible UNC-Wilmington team (6-20 overall). UNC-Wil. struggles against quality teams, especially on the road. Hofstra can simply not afford to lose this game, or they can basically flush their NCAA tournament hopes down the toilet (unless they are banking on winning the conference tournament). In their last meeting, Hofstra won by 11 points at UNC-Wil. in OT nonetheless. In the past 5 games, UNC-Wil. has been terrible, even losing to a 5-24 Delaware team. Hofstra comes off a tough non-conference win against Holy Cross. Look for Hofstra to crush UNC-Wil. in this game, doing nothing to damage their NCAA prospects. Duke -1.5 - Winner They have gotten their act back together. Had a big win @ BC. I see another win here at Clemson. Utah State +5.5 - Winner Everyone is picking undefeated-at-home New Mexico State. According to Covers.com, about 75% are going with the home favorite. I think Utah State is good enough to keep this a 1-2 point game if they lose. They might even win.

GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted February 22, 2007 Good analysis Teejay. I like both teams you picked to win outright, but I always find myself having a tough time laying the lumber at the beginning of a game. But, I might wait on these games until half time just to see if I can get a better deal. Another option I might employ with your picks, but I'm completely unsure of what I'm taking right now, is to throw a 3 team 7 point teaser together. Maybe take Duke +5.5, Davidson -5.5, and Hofstra -5.5..............just hashing things out right now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will definitely be checking the halftime lines. Edit: I'm not getting halftime lines for either game . Looks like these might be a wash. Anyway, I'm parlaying Duke at -1.5 and Utah State at +5.5 for the 9 PM games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might have to play a late one, if Butler can't get the job done at home. I'm looking at Washington State at Oregon. Oregon at home sounds pretty good to me. I'm not sure if Washington State can win here. If anyone has any thoughts on this game, let's hear them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might have to play a late one, if Butler can't get the job done at home. I'm looking at Washington State at Oregon. Oregon at home sounds pretty good to me. I'm not sure if Washington State can win here. If anyone has any thoughts on this game, let's hear them. I'm actually leaning toward taking Wash. State on the moneyline. Since their last matchup, Oregon has been on a freefall, losing 3 in a row and 5 out of 6. 2 of those losses were at home against Arizona and Arizone State. Conversely, Wash. State has won 5 in a row since that loss, including a big road win against Washington. You might be right. This might be Oregon's bounce back game, especially coming home after having 4 of 6 on the road. However, as a road dog this year, Wash. State is 5-1 ATS. I think I'm going to take Wash. State on the moneyline at +130. I think the moneyline payout justifies the bet, over taking the 2.5 spread at -115. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Friday's games have teams from the Ivy league playing and the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference playing. Annually, the Ivy league does not have conference championships like other conferences, so the winner of the regular season with the best record or best conference record gets the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. I thought this might be important trying to figure out tonight's games since it means Pennsylvania and Yale both need to win to keep pace with each other. I would guess next Friday's game between Yale and Pennsylvania would most likely break the tie. Tonight's spreads: Columbia @ Brown -5 Princeton @ Dartmouth +1.5 Pennsylvania @ Harvard +10 Cornell @ Yale -7 Rider @ Canisius -3 St. Peter's @ Iona -3 Loyola Maryland @ Niagara -5 ( I like Niagara with home court here. Both 11-5 in conference play.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Not sure of Yale even though they're at home. Cornell Big Red beat them last time out and it wasn't that long ago, though only by one point.

teejay booker 0 Posted February 25, 2007 5-3 ATS 1-0 O/U 2/25 Games Loyola-Maryland Pick Em - Winner Loy-Mar. is facing a Canisius team that is coming off 7 straight losses, including 3 at home. In their previous game this season, Loy-Mar. won 77-74 at Loy-Mar. They were 6.5 point favorites and did not cover. I like Loy-Mar. in this game for several reasons. First, they are 10-1-1 ATS on the road this year (3 games they played in did not have lines). Second, when a home team is favored by a large spread like 6.5 points, and does not cover, that is usually a tell-tale sign that they underestimated their opponent. On the road, I like Loy-Mar. to be completely focused and ready to use their superior talent to put away Canisius. Also, in their previous meeting, Loy-Mar. was 56% from the free throw line (10-18). They are averaging 71% from the line this year. Factoring out this anomoly, Loy-Mar. would probably have covered. In their last 5 games, Canisius is giving up an average of almost 86 points, including a 50% FG%, and 46% behind the arc. While Canisius is averaging 71 points on offense, it comes at a rather mediocre 40% FG% and 35% behind the arc. Loy-Mar. is coming off a tough loss at Niagra (by 2 points), who is 2nd place in the conference and a pretty good team. Meanwhile, Canisius has been getting blown out against mediocre competition at home and on the road. Overall, Canisius is a pretty bad team at 11-17. Loy-Mar. is 16-12, and a pretty decent road team (8-7). I consider this game to almost be a freebee. Capitalize on this mistake by the cappers, and bet Loy-Mar. big. Memphis -18 - Loser Wow, can the cappers make a home line big enough for Memphis? I don't think so. They have been absolutely clobbering Conference USA teams at home (and on the road for that matter). Memphis absolutely dismantled Rice in their game on Thurs., a team that is currently 4th in Conf. USA. Now, the Tigers get to feast on Houston, who they beat 89-79 in their previous meeting at Houston (Memphis was an 8 point favorite). In that game, Memphis shot 60% from the field, putting up points whenever they wanted to. Houston plays somewhat like Rice, depending on one major scorer (Rob McKiver - scored 27 points in their previous meeting). If Memphis can shut him down, even somewhat, they will win by 30. If you have been watching Memphis' games lately, their defense has been absolutely stifling. They are creating a ton of turnovers, which lead to easy break points. They go on multiple 5-8 point runs almost every game. It's pretty ridiculous to watch how athletic they are. One of the most entertaining teams in the country. That being said, there is nothing Houston can do to slow this team down. With Florida losing today, either Ohio State or Wisconsin losing on Sunday, and this game being nationally televised, Memphis is going to run Houston into the ground. This one will be ugly by halftime. Considering these factors, Memphis is surely eyeing a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament, if they weren't already before. They are facing crappy teams so they need to win every game by 25-30 points. Look for this game to be much the same. I see Memphis in an absolute route. A pretty entertaining, yet honest quote from the Houston coach: "There's no weakness on that team — at least no predicted weakness," said Penders of the Tigers (24-3, 13-0). "You always look for something in the other team that you might be able to take advantage of. But they're quicker than we are, they're bigger than we are, they shoot better than we do and they're deeper than we are. So you just have to hope that they have an off game and you're having a great game." Toledo/Western Michigan OVER 142 - Winner In their past meeting, these two teams combined for 148 points, at Toledo. Additionally, in recent games, both teams have been on fire, with Toledo averaging 70 ppg in their last 5, and W. Mich. 77 ppg. The common theme with both of these teams? No defense. Plus, Toledo hoists up TONS of shots per game (In their last 3 - 65, 59, 58) Combine that with W. Mich.'s shooting touch in the past 5 (47% FG, 40% 3P, 74% FT) and you have a recipe for a good ole fashioned shootout. Another important stat to look at when predicting O/Us is the total point amount a team averages Home/Away versus their OVERALL average (both home and away). At home, W. Mich averages 78 ppg, almost 7 points more than their OVERALL average. On the road, Toledo averages 71 ppg, 2 points more than their OVERALL average. The fact that W. Mich. is 9-1-0 O/U at home this year is just icing on the cake. Look for these two teams to combine for 150+ in this game. Louisville Pick Em - Winner Didn't look at this one very closely. I'm making this bet because of the way both teams have been playing in the last 3 and the fact that Louisville is great at covering on the road, as all the trends point to. Fairfield -3.5 - Loser Fairfield sucks, but not nearly as much as St. Peter's. Fairfield is great ATS in their H2H matchups. Don't have much more to say about this game. North Carolina ML -165 on the moneyline. Not great odds, but I feel like 3.5 is too much to be laying in this game. I like Carolina to stop this insane run that Maryland has been having.
