hey hd,

gotta thank you on many great picks this year...took a look at the lines for tomorrow and posted iowa as my biggest play of the year...got back to the main page and saw you were on the same play...great minds think alike right? haha...just kidding...anyway, hope we are both right...love iowa tomorrow...always look forward to your plays...posted many of the same plays as you today without seeing your plays, but have to admit, you are the one that turned me onto harvard a week or two ago with your santa clara play...thanks for your efforts and hopefully, i can return the favor with some contributions to you too...went on a terrific run last year posting here...at one point was hitting like 75-80% for about a 5-6 week period...appreciate your posts and hopefully can combine with you to win some units again this year!

Looking at Iowa also.

What are your thoughts on VCU at Drexel? Leaning towards VCU -3.5 as they are finally getting production from other players besides Maynor.

I wouldn't put a dollar on my Cougs right now. The offense is absolutely pathetic, and the defense late in games totally folds (like vs UW). I was shocked to see us open as a couple point favs, especially against a Cal team that looks like they'll be very strong this year. I absolutely hate betting against my squad, but the play as of now looks like Cal, and possibly a big one.

Hey you son of a bitch you are suppose to lose a few in the H2H matchup so I can win.:toast:

Nice Wednesday good luck with your Thursday plays man. I am just sitting down to look over the card. I don't get out of work until 530 my time which is only a half hour before most of the games start. I should really go to bed but must give you a game in our matchup lol.

 

[quinnsft34]

Found two I like in a few minutes. If I lose one game this week and lose because of it I can deal with that.

Anthony Tucker is playing for Iowa right? He has missed a couple games lately, but is listed as probable.

Denver pk -110
Wright St +10.5 -110

Glad to see you on Denver, got em +1.5 this mornin See -1's now
Was wonderin if you know anything about Salter tonight for Wofford? Line doesnt suggest him playing but I did find an article saying he might go.....

THE INJURY to Salters, carefully phrased as a strained gluteus maximus, shouldn’t keep him sitting (or should he be standing?) much longer. He’s missed two games and is expected to play Thursday night at Chattanooga. If not, the Terriers will just have to turn the other cheek.

Would be NICE to get 7.5 if hes in! Thanks.........

Wright St +10.5

I am going to back a hot team who seems to be getting it together after a horrendous start. Just 2 months ago this team was picked to win the Horizon league, and were picked ahead of Butler. A lot has changed in those 2 months, but Wright St has been getting healthier, and the results on the court have been showing just that. Vaughn Duggins, the Raiders best player, has played in just 4 games this season, but is officially listed as questionable for tonight's game. He did travel with the team and says he wants to play. He is literally going to be a game time decision.
http://www.daytondailynews.com/o/co...tatesports/entries/2009/01/07/theyre_off.html

Another important player was all league performer Todd Brown. He wasn't injured, but mine as well should have been. He got off to a brutal start, and looked completely lost. However the past 4 games he has shown signs of life. He has increased his scoring average to over 7 ppg and has scored in double figures in 5 of the last 6 games. He has hit a 3 in each of his last 4 games, and is 16-27 for 59% his last 4 games shooting. With Brown's confidence growing, and the return of Duggins that should be the lift the Raiders needed to get them over the top. They got things rolling at the right time so the season is not lost. They haven't suffered any of their losses during conference play, and some of the early season injuries may be a blessing in disguise. They will gain some depth by forcing some players into action when the injury bug hit them. These reserves gained some very valuable in game experience which should benefit them come conference play. Even with all the losses one thing didn't change. WSU continued to play defense. They are only allowing opponents to shoot 38.3%. Brownell is an excellent coach, and his job getting his team through this early season swoon should speak to his coaching ability. Wright St has also seemed to have Butler's number over the past 2 seasons. Of the Bulldogs 11 losses, 3 of them have been by Wright St. I think 10.5 is way too many points for a game that should be played in the 50's or 60's.

ya i'm pretty pissed I held off on Denver. I knew I was going to play them, but felt I could get a better number if I held off. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I am not sure about the Wofford injuries. If my service updates I will be sure to post in here and let you know.

HD,

Thoughts on Nevada at New Mexico St. -4.5?

I am leaning New Mexico St on this one. Just want some advice.

Homedawg, this game is circled at my book and the line has dropped to 10. What do you make of this? Obviously its circled because Duggins is injured but to have the line drop? I figure it would've gone up. If he is playing, what do you expect the line to be then. Would you play this regardless of whether he plays or not? Thanks
