ACC Tuesday (Strong Play tonight)

[jimmyshivers]

81-72-3 +.4 units

3-3 last time out. Whenever I have an even number of plays I seem to split them. I only know one way to stop that, and thats to have an odd number of plays. Tonight I see a strong one in the ACC with...

***** Boston College Eagles -2.5

FSU got their 8th conference win on Saturday @ a slumping VT team, and I can feel a let down from the Noles tonight. FSU has some very good wins but the bulk of those have come @ home (best two road opponents were Miami and Wake, which were 6 point and 23 point losses).

I like the way the Eagles frontcourt matches up in this game. FSU has a very big frontcourt but they tend to struggle against the guys like Trapini and Southern who can stretch the court offensively and force them to cover them outside of the paint. I expect BC to stretch the noles defensively and be able to create alot of good looks around the basket.

Ty Rice has been very streaky this season but he tends to save his big games when he is drawing coverage from a big name guard. I'm expecting Rice to be bounce back strong against ACC POY candidtate Tony Douglas tonight and to have a good night leading the BC attack.

BC needs this win to get to 20 and to have 8 in the conference. I think FSU gets caught looking ahead to the big home game vs Clemson this weekend and is unable to match the intensity of the Eagles tonight. BC by 9..

GL gooch glad to hear that you like it.

I just think that FSU was really up for the VT game and this looks like an extremely tough spot for them to maintain their consistency. They hit their "magic 8" for the conference and I don't expect them to be as dialed in tonight...

 

[douglas]

glad to see this as I have had this circled since Saturday myself .
Bol to us tonight .

 

[GoForIt]

Let's go B.C.!!!!! We both agree that B.C. should have more energy and be more motivated. Hopefully, that is the case.

 

[knucklecup]

Love it, Jimmy!

Go EAGLES!

You are probably right about the bc pick jimmy but I had to go with fsu partially bc im a fan an they have won me at a lot of money at 70% ats and also they 9-2 ats away (even though u are right that the wins have come vs not that good of teams). As a fan of fsu I hope we can keep our top 25 ranking for at least one game ha.... ethier way bol jimmy

really impressed with your team Nasty, but just feel this is an awful spot for them tonight. This is a valley game for the noles imo, but they are awfully tough and anything is possible.

Looking hard @ the terps in this game Raven, think they have a great shot @ the outright W...

Good luck with BC tonight.

Wil be on VT tomorrow as they always play Clemson close and maybe small play on Maryland ML though Duke did kill them earlier this year.

 

[dirtymoose]

[jimmyshivers]

BC started really poorly last time out @ home vs Duke too. Lets hope they bounce back..

on our way back

 

[jimmyshivers]

only watching on game tracker here fellas (no espn U) but we have our first lead!

 

[GoForIt]

Down 1 at half---I'll take it considering where we were

 

[GoForIt]

Tyrese Rice only took 1 shot in the 1st half and missed it, he is a streaky guy though, he'll get going

 

[Mr.Cover123]

BC -2 2nd half?

Rice zero points and made nice run to end half.
