1/31 College Hoops (196-160-7 YTD)

[HoosierDaddy]

15-11 L4 days.

12 PM Plays:

Vanderbilt (+1')
Vandy comes off thier first home loss against South Carolina. This line looks too easy for Kentucky.

Notre Dame (+3')
Rutgers just did something they rarely do. They won on the road at Villanova.

ND desperately needs some wins.

1 PM Plays:
UNC Wilmington (+5)
The Seahawks have lost 3 of their L4 and this conference fav is a game and a half out of first place. UNCW beat Drexel by 7 as a -5 favorite (a loss for me). I think this has some good value here.

Central Michigan (+9')
Kind of a hunch play here.

1:30 Plays:
Texas A & M (+9')
A & M has yet to win a big 12 game this year, but something tells me they will be up for this one. They played both Texas Tech and Kansas down to the wire in College Station.

Michigan (+9')
Illinois has not covered big #'s this year.

2 PM Games:

Richmond (-4)
The Spiders are hot and their RPI is much improved with the win over Kansas. They need to keep winning conference games.

Akron (+12)

George Mason (-11)
W & M has been on a roll. It ends today.

Early games looking good "early", but now folding late.....FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!

ND up by 4 at half, now down by 9
Vandy up by 5 at half, now down by 5
I want Vandy bad, just because everyone had KY!
C****ing my fingers...

I meant "c****ing" my fingers...typo!

3 PM Plays:

Louisville (-15')
Line looks too high, but there usually is a reason for that.

BYU (+4)
OK, I know the Majerus thing happened this week, but Utah is 11-0 at home while BYU is 1-6 on the road and the Utes are laying 4 and in some places only 3? Looks too easy for the Utes. I go contrarian here.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Well, I didn't sweep the first 2. It was looking like 0-2 at one point, but I get a split at least.

My mid-major plays are taking a beating (C. Michigan and UNC-Wilmington).

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Boston College (+9)
BC is a quality team at home (9-1 this year). Their guards are not that great but their inside guys (Smith and Agbai) can matchup with the Huskies.

Temple (+9')
The Owls have been geared up for this one for a long time. The matchup zone will prevent St. Joe's from getting their usual open looks.

Kansas (-4)
Iowa State may be unbeaten at home, but I think they are a joke. Kansas is a different team since thier loss to Richmond.

Minnesota (+3)
The Gophers keep getting closer and closer to their first Big 10 win. They should get it today.

Auburn (+1')
Auburn has the personnel to run with MSU. I know MSU is 17-1, but they don't strike me as a title contender.

Fairfield (-3')

add:

Georgia Tech (+3')

Oregon (+4)

Going with the trend of Top 25's getting beat today.

Add:

Northern Illinois (+1)

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Way too many plays today. Please don't follow my lead.

7 PM:

Missouri (-9)
Just like Nebraska LW, Mizzou should be able to dispose of a second-tier Big 12 team at home.

Columbia (+3)
Just destroyed Dartmouth on the road last night. They should have the confidence to beat Harvard.

Alabama (-4)
Bama had LSU beat in Baton Rouge, but it fell apart with 2 min to play.

Georgetown (+5)
Good line value here even though the Hoyas are paper tigers.

8 PM:

Michigan St (-7')
Indiana should not be leading the Big 10. This line looks too high, but I think IU is going to have some trouble tonight.

Arizona State (+5)
Huge letdown game for Washington tonight and ASU can't afford to get swept in Washington. The Pac-10 is so balanced that these losses can keep them out of the pac-10 Tourney.

8:30 Play:

Tulane (+1)
The Wave are a decent 7-4 at home while Southern Miss is 1-7 on the road.

9 PM Plays:
Oklahoma State (-6)
Hate going against Knight when he is on a roll, but Sutton and the Cowboys have a bitter taste in their mouths from that asskicking in Lubbock (a big winner for me earlier this year).

Wyoming (+2')
CSU just is not that good of a team without Nelson, plus Wyoming is 0-6 on the road and getting such a small number?

Maybe 1-2 late West Coast plays depending on how these go.
