Brown/ PC winner

[Ice74]

First post here at the RX.

I play 1 or 2 units plays in B-ball. 1 unit= $250

1 Unit play on Brown +17.5

Providence should be a little sluggish coming back from the west coast, Brown should be able to keep the game close. Friars win by 13.

Like the call

Do you follow the Friars?
I love them Saturday night at BC, after BC plays UConn Wednesday night. Look to be taking 5-6 points, and I think PC lights up Conte.

Sports Editor, I'm a long time Providence season ticket holder and usually have a good read on how the team is going to play. I think they will play well against BC especially given the fact that they are already road tested and BC will be coming off the UConn game.

Missed it.

I'll look for future plays.

Saturday night

I think it sets up well for a PC win. I assume BC will lose to UConn, and then suffer unbeaten letdown, against a better team Saturday night anyway. But if BC somehow beats UConn, I love PC even more.
Was at BC/Kent last week and Eagles couldn't defend the three. If Kent made a pair of free throws, Eagles would have a loss.
What do you think the line will be? Friars will have rest......

Saturday night

Sports editor, I'm hoping Providence will be getting 6 on Saturday vs. BC but if the eagles can pull the upset against UConn I can see an 8 point spread.... PC did not play very good defense last night, Brown sat their best player, Forte, for the last 17 minutes of the game and still managed to cover.

I did see where Forte sat for using a bad word, the ProJo called it an epithet. He's been a problem for Miller this season.
As for PC's defense, it seemed like more of a backdoor situation than anything, with a solid 23-point lead in the second half.
I think Welsh is doing a good job building a reliable bench. I agree, the line will be between 6-8, and PC gets the outright.
Unless Smith has a monster game, i.e. 30 points, they will be hard pressed to match Friars from the outside.
