Kojak's Monday College Hoops (ytd not including Sunday at 245-213-10)

[Kojak]

Right now the theme of the day on Monday is quality over quantity as there are 3 games that stand out right now.

Boston College +9 - BC coming off of loss to Providence Saturday. I look for a spirited game with Seton Hall as both teams looking for a key win. BC probably won't win but should comfortably keep it under 9.(win)

Oklahoma St. -1 (BEST)- Cowboys are the best team in the Big 12. Even though Oklahoma has lost only 2 games at home in about the last 100, Cowboys are simply too tough. Difference in this game is Lucas on the freshman point guard Lavender. Potential Big 12 MVP Lucas should own the freshman in this one. Without Bookout, OSU should dominate inside scoring and boards. Oklahoma will play hard but OSU wins by 10+ in the end.(win)

Syracuse -7 - Orangeman seem to be gaining momentum after big road win at Miami. ND has two quality home wins against UCONN and Seton Hall of late but that still doesn't change their road woes. Boeheim always seems to start building momentum leading into March and I think the Miami win was the springboard. Syracuse should win by 12-15.(loss)

Best of luck.

BC's go to guy (Smith) is questionable for this game..You still like it?

 

[Kojak]

coloradobuff,

That would affect my play for sure. I will hold off until I know if he plays or not. Thanks for info.

 

[coloradobuff]

I agree with you on your Okla St pick..You hit it dead on regarding the lucas/lavender matchup..All of the 'pokes main threats are seniors besides lucas (who is a junior) and oklahoma is just too young and they simply dont have any scorers nor post players to compete with what is easily the class of the big 12

 

[Kojak]

coloradobuff,

I think I might upgrade OSU to a top play by gametime tomorrow. I am also leaning towards BYU as a play but 5.5 is lot to lay with BYU on the road with their woes though they played well at Wyoming on Saturday.

 

[Kojak]

I am removing Boston College as a play until I can get confirmation if Smith is playing or not. But I will add....

Tennessee Chattanooga -13(loss)

Plays for tomorrow:

OK State -1 (Best)(win)

Syracuse -7(loss)

Tennesse Chattanooga -13(loss)

Best of luck.

Good Luck today Kojak. BTW, their seems to be some and/or one poster who seems to be wanting to start shit and look for attention. He doesnt contribute shit here just negative, so just ignore his post. Dont respond to his/their post. Their is only one reason to act like he is and it is because of SIMPLE JEOLOUSY. When you win their never around, but when you lose, they show up. Everyone see what goes on here, and by them not seeing this fact, really shows me how stupid they really are. Usually people like these are either immature or ignorant. Either way, ignore them and their post. They are only looking for attention, dont give it to them at all. Just a bunch of fvckin PUNKS.

co captain,

Best of luck to you and appreciate the heads up. You might want to check my post out on Rutgers yesterday. Let's make some money tonight.

This OSU/OU games looks too easy guys. But I am going to take a chance on OSU. The line should probably be OSU -3 or -4. We will see.

inspades,

The line is where it should be as the home team has won the last 7 in this series and Oklahoma has been playing better of late. Difference is that OSU has been playing at a different level.OU doesn't matchup with OSU this year and talent will win out in this one. Best of luck.

Kojak - We are playing 3 of the same games today but I am on Seton Hall. I made the play assuming Smith would play. Must have been the reason line jumped back to 8.5 although I got 9 unfortunately. Go Okie State & Niagara!

 

[Kojak]

Black and Gold,

Best of luck on our plays tonight and keep up the hard work as it is appreciated.

 

[Kojak]

Niagara looking strong going into half. Looks like we could get off to a good start today!

 

[Kojak]

Fairfield starting to make this game interesting! Down now only 8! Hopefully Niagara can hold on!
