MistaFlava's 2008 CBB Record: 26-31-4 ATS (-114.00 Units)

Almost in identical fashion to my College Football season, I am really falling behind and can't seem to get a handle on some of these college games. I'll have plays like UConn +2 as my PLAY OF THE MONTH but then come up with horrendous plays like Purdue and Florida last night. Oh well, time to keep going and hope things get better. I won't be providing huge writeups anymore until I can really start being useful around here. I only care about the money I win and not the percentage of bets I win so taking home the cash is all that matters and proper Money Management is a must, although I have a feeling I will still drop bombs here and there. That's just the way I roll and if you don't like it I don't really give a shit. Gotta love college hoops a lot more than the NBA and believe me when I say that this is where the money is at despite some of these kids really sucking when the game is on the line. Only in this sport can you have miracle covers. Hope you enjoy my writeups.

1 unit = $100


You can tail, you can fade or you can just watch. I have always been a streaky capper. Good Luck to all this week!

View attachment 6371 Syracuse Orangemen -2.5 (10 Units) View attachment 6372

The West Virginia Mountaineers come into this game averaging 68.4 points per game in their last five games which is not bad at all but take a look at their shooting stats in those games and you will see that they are shooting only 41.8% from the floor in those games and that's not going to cut it when you come to the Carrier Dome. The Orange are having all sorts of issues on the defensive end of things in recent games as their opponents are scoring a ton of points per game, shooting the lights out from the floor and things can only get better for these guys. The Orangemen have been getting absolutely killed from three point range the last five games as they have allowed their opponents to shoot 38.1% from three point range and make a whopping 9.6 three point shots per game in those games. I have made some nice cash fading the Orange but only against teams who can hit three pointers and West Virginia is not one of them, not like they used to be anyways. The Mountaineers have made only 6.0 three point shots per game in their last five games and are hitting only 32.3% from three point range in those games. The Mountaineers are a very good free throw shooting team but that goes not waste because they struggle to get penetration against tough interior defense like Syracuse. They have been to the free throw line only 17.0 times per game in their last five games and Syracuse has not allowed any inside action in their last five games (and it cost them against good shooting teams) sending opponents to the line only 16.6 times per game in those games (both below the NCAA average for those games). Both teams are as even as it gets when it comes to rebounding as they do their own part to bring down their fair share of rebounds per game and I don't see an edge on either side tonight. What this is going to come down to is which team has the better guard play and the answer to that is Syracuse. The Mountaineers as a team are averaging only 12.8 asssists per game in their last five games and their lack of aggressiveness is a concern. Syracuse's perimeter defense has been a complete joke lately and teams have been able to get tremendous ball movement both inside and outside against these guys the Mountaineers just don't have natural ball handling playmakers to take advantage of that. The only way to beat this Orange team is to knock the lights out from the outside because they take away all inside action, average 5.6 blocks per game in their last five games and don't allow anything in the paint. Unfortunately for the Mountaineers, they are shooting too poorly to take advantage of that.

The Syracuse Orangemen come into this game averaging a whopping 75.6 points per game in their last five games and in those games they managed to shoot 46.8% from the floor (both are well above NCAA averages for that period of games) and one thing is for sure, this team can score. Scoring is a good thing when you play against West Virginia because despite not allowing a ton of points per game in their last five games, the Mountaineers have allowed their last five opponents to shoot 44.3% from the floor and that would be a concern for all West Virginia backers if you ask me. I know the Mountaineers top priority when they play is to take away their opponents shots from the outside and force them inside the zone to take long range jumpers or score in the paint but that might not work in the Carreier Dome. Sure the Mountaineers have one of the best three point shooting defenses in the Country the last week or two because they really come after you out there and never allow open shots but this is Syracuse and the Orangemen are at home and the Orangemen have made 37.1% of their three point shots in their last five games at 7.2 three point shots made per game in those games. So believe me Devendorf is going to find a way to make some huge plays in this game. Cuse, despite being a horrendous free throw shooting team is going to have success forcing the Mountaineers to foul because West Virginia's interior defense is not that strong and their last five opponents have been to the free throw line 23.2 times per game. Expect early foul trouble for the Neers in this game. Syracuse has been to the free throw line 20.6 times per game in their last five games and they shoot free throw a heck of a lot better at home than on the road so expect some free points here. Like I said before I don't see much of an edge by either team in terms of rebounding and toughness around the glass but the Orangemen have come down with 11.2 offensive rebounds per game in their last five games and that is pretty impressive and sure to give them second chance points at some point tonight. Where this game is going to be won for Syracuse is at the guard position because as poorly as Syracuse has played, they are back home with a very winnable game and I think Devendorf and Flynn are going to shine. They are both great ball handlers who can find open guys like not many can in the Big East and the team has 14.6 assists per game in their last five games (NCAA average for those games is 12.9) but they do turn the ball over quite a bit. Having said that, this is a big game for this team tonight and Devendorf should have his best game of the season penetrating this defense and getting to the line quite a bit. For a team that forces almost 17 turnovers per game in their last five games, West Virginia has only 6.8 steals per game in those games which means their opponents have pretty much just lost the ball on their own. Syracuse is going to pound away on the inside in this game and as long as they can make 65-70% of their free throws, they should win this game comfortably.

I have to admit the Mountaineers have been cash money most of the season as a road underdog against good home teams but their last game against Louisville wasn't really a cover (depending on what line you got for the game) and the Cardinals led by 20 at the half so forget about that. More importantly for me, West Virginia has covered the spread in only 2 of their last 8 games played on a Wednesday and they are 1-4 ATS in their last five games that follow a straight up loss. Syracuse on the other hand is not making their backers cash the way they use to make us cash but all that is going to change tonight in what is probably their most important game of the season and is definitely a MUST-WIN game for this team. They are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a favorite so it's nice to be back in a spot where they are comfortable and as we already know, it's almost impossible to come into this place and beat the Orange so the small odds are very inviting. The favorite in this series has covered the spread in 5 of the last 7 meetings and I don't know if it's a coincidence but Syracuse has covered 5 of the last 7 meetings between these teams. Enough said, it's time to back Syracuse to the bank here. Expect Devendorf to have a huge game in a good matchup for the Orange.

Impact Player: Eric Devendorf, Syracuse

Trend of the Game:
The favorite is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings between these teams.


Syracuse 81, West Virginia 72

View attachment 6374 Wake Forest Demon Deacons -2.5 (25 Units) View attachment 6373

***PLAY OF THE NIGHT***

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons comes into this game averaging 75.2 points per game in their last five games and they have managed to get that done on 46.1% shooting from the floor so we know this team is clicking on all cylinders right now as both are above NCAA averages for that period of time. The Deacons should have a hell of a time scoring points tonight as Miami has been horrendous defensively the last five games allowing a whopping 79.2 points per game in those games and allowing those same opponents to unload at a 45.6% clip from the floor (both well above NCAA averages for those games) and that's a big problem. What you have to know about Wake Forest is that because of their size they don't take too many three point shots and they love to work things down low which is great but if there was ever a game where they want to take three point shots it's this one seeing how Miami has allowed their last five opponents to shoot a disgusting 41.7% from three point range and those same opponents have made 10.0 three point shots per game in those games. I know the Deacons have made only 3.4 three point shots per game in their last five games but only 17.1% of their total shot attempts in those games have come from beyond the arc. Wake instead is a team that loves to penetrate the zone and are good enough to score from short range as they have been to the free throw line 22.8 times per game in their last five games. Miami's interior defense is not that bad but they are not aggressive enough and scoring on them down the lanes is just too easy. Their style of game is just not suited for this Wake Forest offense and it will cost them tonight. The other concern I'm sure for Miami fans is the fact that despite being a pretty good rebounding team, Wake Forest is better as they have brought down 37.2 rebounds per game in their last five games with the NCAA average for those games being 31.2 and they are just a very solid rebounding team. I expect Al-Farouq Aminu to be the top player for Wake tonight like he was the top player in the loss to Georgia Tech. I know the Deacons are lacking strong guard play and that has been the concern since the beginning of the season. You hear about Wake Forest not getting enough ball movement and about how they turn the ball over too much. On that note, Miami's perimeter defense sucks ass and moving the ball around the outside and into a position to have an open shot is going to be availble all night against a defense allowing 15.8 assists per game in their last five games and that have forced only 11.4 turnovers of their own in those games on an average of only 5.0 steals per game. If you are going to let Wake Forest do what they want and not challenge anything they do, you are not going to beat them that's for sure. Miami's defense is a joke and Wake is not going to miss out on this.

The Miami Hurricane come into this game on a scoring rampage of their own as they have scored 74.4 points per game in their last five games but what I don't like is that they don't shoot the ball as well as a team like Wake Forest and they have made only 44.3% of their shots in those last five games. Well unlike the Hurrcine, the Demon Deacons know a thing or two about playing defense and that is actually going to be the difference in this game tonight. Wake Forest has allowed their last five opponents to score 70+ points per game which looks bad but when you consider that they score almost 80 every game this season and that those last five opponents have been held to 38.2% shooting from the floor, things don't look all that bad do they? This is going to be a struggle to keep up for Miami in this game and just don't see them scoring enough to keep this close. The other problem with Miami is that in their last five games, 40.1% of their total shot attempts have come from beyond the three point line and they are making only 34.1% of those shots. Not so bad but the problem is here. Wake Forest defends the outside perimeter like no tomorrow and one thing they don't let you do is get some clean looks from the outside. Their last five opponents have made only 25.2% of their shots from three point range (the NCAA average for those games is 34.3% from three point range) and the Deacons are not going to let McClinton get any clean looks in this game. If he does get looks it will be with a few guys in his face. The only way to score a lot of points against Wake Forest and keep up with their offense is to attack the middle, make them foul and get to the free throw line and that is something the Canes have struggled to do in their last five games going to the free throw line only 18.0 times per game in those games and making a pathetic 64.4% of their free throws in those games. Not going to work and I still don't know how this team is going to keep up tonight. I don't know if Miami is going to realize this but they can probably have success attacking the inside and hanging around the baskets if they miss shots because the Deacons don't have enough guys in the box off misses and their opponents do get a lot of offensive rebounds but that's how they play. Against most teams the guard combination of Lance Hurdle and Jack McClinton would be enough to create nightmares because of these guys can shoot and handle the ball and they don't turn it over much but I don't think they have seen this kind of defensive pressure all season. Wake Forest is averaging a whopping 8.2 steals per game in their last five games and they have forced 13.8 turnovers per game in those games while allowing only 11.2 asssists against per game. You can forget about effective ball movement to the inside or outside against the Deacons and that should result in a lot of bad shot choices by the Hurricanes. When the Canes realize their outside shooting doesn't work I expect them to go inside but the problem there is that Wake Forest have some monsters in the middle and they have 7.0 blocks per game in their last five games. Miami is going to struggle big time tonight guys and if you bet on them, you still have time to get the fuck off.

Despite their blunder at Georgia Tech on the weekend, Wake Forest has been a good ATS wager and they are still 6-1 ATS in their last seven games versus teams with a winning SU record on the year. They have also been a good wager away from home where despite that loss are now 4-1 ATS in their last five road games. What I have always noticed about this team is that they do really well against really good teams and again that would explain how they have covered the spread in 20 of their last 28 games when playing against a team with a winning percentage above .600 on the year. I have bet on Miami as an underdog in the past and had some success but on that note you have to know that the Hurricanes are only 1-4-1 ATS in their last six games versus teams with a SU winning record on the year and they just don't do all that well against better teams. We saw it against UNC a few weeks ago and we should see it here again. Miami has not covered the spread one single time in their last five home games and like I mentioned before this team is just not build to compete in the ACC Conference just yet, not against good teams like the Deacons. If you like betting on totals you may also want to go with the UNDER here (although I don't know shit about totals) because Miami should struggle to score while Wake Forest will score at will in this game and run away with this by the beginning of the second half. PLAY OF THE NIGHT!

Impact Player: Al-Farouq Aminu, WF

Trend of the Game: Wake Forest is 6-1 ATS in their last seven games versus teams with winning SU records.


Wake Forest 87, Miami 63

View attachment 6376 Villanova Wildcats -1.5 (10 Units) View attachment 6375

The Villanova Wildcats are probably some people's fade pick tonight of all the public plays that are being pounded. The Wildcats come into this game averaging 73.4 points per game in their last five games and they have managed to do that by shooting a whopping 48.7% from the floor in those games. I have to tell you right now that the Wildcats can score 100 points tonight if they want because Providence is not that good of a team, they are being overvalued by the books and the Friars have allowed a whopping 87.0 points per game in their last five games and they have allowed their last five opponents to shoot 47.5% from the floor in those games. For those who don't already know, the NCAA average for points scored is 67.9 points per game and the average for shooting percentage is 43.5%. Providence doesn't have any defense and that is going to be a huge issue tonight. The Wildcats are not the same three point shooting team they once were a couple of seasons ago but they still have some guys who can really knock it down from the outside and something tells me Scottie Reynolds goes on a bit of a rampage tonight against a Providence team that has allowed their last five opponents to shoot 42.5% from the floor and average a whopping 9.0 three point shots made per game. The Wildcats are very aggressive when it comes to attacking the basket and they have gone to the free throw line 25.2 times per game in their last five games and are making close to 70% of those free throws which is good. Providence is tough to beat inside because they have so many big players and they don't defend the outside well but their last five opponents have still found a way to score and get to the line and I expect Villanova to get a ton of freebies tonight. I know the Wildcats don't match up in size with the Friars and rebounding won't be there tonight for these guys but what you have to understand is that because they shoot the ball so well they don't need those second chance points as much as other teams. Having said that, I think Dwayne Anderson is going to be a monster in this game and just to let you know Providence despite being a big team, are weak around their own basket and their last five opponents hage brought down 12.8 offensive rebounds per game so Nova has a chance on the boards tonight. With the fast tempo of game the Wildcats play, it's obvious they are going to have turnovers and lose the ball quite often. Having said that, Reynolds and company are very good at moving the ball around and they do average a lot of assists per game and the one thing Providence cannot handle is teams that have good perimeter passing and good ball moving guards as they have allowed 17.6 assists per game in their last five games and Villanova is going to have a ball moving the ball around and finding wide open shots from the outside. What's funny is that you would think with the size advantage Providence has they would be able to dominate the inside in this game but Villanova is very aggressive and they really don't shy away from tougher teams which is why I think they score a bunch of points tonight and take this game right up the Friars asses.

The Providence Friars have no business being a 1 or 2 point underdog at home against a much better team. The Friars come into this game averaging 82.6 points per game in their last five games this season and in those games they have managed to shoot 46.4% from the floor which is what oddsmakers seem to be looking at. What they are not looking at in this game is how poorly this team plays on the defensive side of things and how they are going to have problems scoring points against a very good defense like Villanova's that has allowed their last five opponents to score only 62.8 points per game and allowed those very same opponents to shoot only 38.1% from the floor in those games. Those numbers are all well below the NCAA average and Nova can really play some defense so I don't really see how anyone could think Providence is going to continue to score the way they have been scoring in recent games. Villanova is another one of those teams that plays solid outside perimeter defense and that allows you to do as you wish in the middle. The Wildcats have allowed their last five opponents to shoot only 28.9% from three point range in those five games and although Providence is a decent three point shooting team, they will find it tougher and tougher to get open looks against this very pesky defense that swarms until you turn the ball over. What Villanova is going to do is foul Providence over and over again. The Wildcats have a deep bench and believe me when I say that there is no such thing as foul trouble with this bunch. The reason for all the fouls and the reason Villanova will send Providence to the line a bunch of times tonight is because the Friars are a bad free throw shooting team and they have made only 64.1% of their free throws in their last five games despite going to the line 25.6 times per game in those games. This is a bit like Hack-a-Shaq because instead of letting Providence score easy buckets under the hoop you foul them and more times than not they are only going to make 1 of 2 free throws and the trade-in is good. With a deep bench you can pretty much do this anytime, anyplace against teams who can't hit free throws. You would think with the 12.4 offensive rebounds per game Providence has brought down in their last five games and that they could get a bunch of chances off misses which would allow them to keep up in this game but the problem with that is that Villanova is so good under their own basket and their last five opponents have managed to bring down only 9.4 offensive rebounds per game as the Widlcats really know how to defend their house. Without second chance opportunities in this game the Friars are going nowhere at all. All Villanova has to do in this game is contain Shaurad Curry who is one of the most underrated playmakers in the Big East Conference right now and he has led this Providence team to 17.4 assists per game in their last five games. Problem there is that Villanova is too aggressive defensively with their press and moving the ball around against these guys is tough. The Wildcats have forced 15.6 turnovers per game in their last five games (NCAA average for those games is 13.6) and they average 8.0 steals per game in those games. Providence has played well but they are in trouble here tonight and the only way to win is to hit 80% or better from the free throw line and that is just not happening. Despite the size disadvantage, Villanova still averages 5.2 blocks per game in their last five games and they are tough enough to lay an ass whoopin on this Friars team.

This could be a good game and it might not be as high scoring as people would think but I would at the same time be shocked if Villanova was held out of the 80 point category or more in this game. The Wildcats have now covered four straight games against teams with winning SU records ont he season and why would they stop here? They have also covered five straight games overall and are a perfect 5-0 ATS in their last five Big East Conference games and they could actually be one of the most underrated teams in the Conference right now. If you are concerned about betting on a Big East team that is favored on the road, look no further than this Villanova team to know that yes they can win away from home even as a favorite. The Widlcats are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 road games as a favorite of 0.5 to 6.5 points and they are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a road favorite so this is a good spot for them. Providence for some reason has also been another good team in this Conference to bet on the way they are covering games recently but they do have a dark side and oddsmakers have proven in the past that they know what they are doing when they make them home dogs. Providence is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games as a home underdog, they are 7-21 ATS in their last 28 home games versus teams with a winning SU road record and this is just a bad spot for them. Villanova has covered the spread five straight times in Providence, the underdog has also done well in this series but in the end the road team is a perfect 7-0 ATS in the last seven meetings and that is all I need to know. NOVA = BANK!

Impact Player: Dwayne Anderson, VILLA

Trend of the Game: Providence is 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games as an underdog.


Villanova 86, Providence 77

Game #4


Wednesday, February 4


View attachment 6377 Clemson Tigers +4 (5 Units) View attachment 6378

The Duke Blue Devils come into this game knowing what they have to do to win. The come into this game averaging 76.2 points per game in their last five games and in those games they have managed to shoot 43.9% from the floor which is not that good. So yes they score a bunch of points and only high scoring teams can keep up with them but I am not impressed at all with this rather low shooting percentage they have going on in recent games and to me that makes them very vulnerable. We all saw them lose to Wake Forest last week and that was because they couldn't keep up in the scoring department and their shooting wasn't good enough to keep themin the game. Clemson's defense is by no means good nor do they stop opponents from scoring but that is their style and the Tigers have always been about scoring a ton of points of their own to keeps games close and this should be no different. We already know both teams love to shoot from three point land so this comes down to who can do it better and who can do it better tonight. Duke is hitting a bunch of three point shots per game in their last five games but they have to go up against a Clemson defense that has allowed their last five opponents to shoot only 30.3% from three point range and allowed those same opponents to make only 4.6 three pointers per game. Unless Duke can shoot well from the outside I think they are in big time trouble in a high scoring game like this could turnout to be and I say that because the Blue Devils lack aggresiveness around the basket in recent weeks and in their last five games they have been to the free throw line only 16.4 times per game and that's a concern. It's a concern because of how well Clemson has defended the inside in their last five games allowing opponents to go to the free throw line only 20.8 times per game in those games which is fine because Duke might have to play from behind for the most part of this game. This should be a great battle on the boards between two teams who have very athletic and strong players that hang around the basket looking to scoop up boards. Duke has 13.0 offensive rebounds per game in their last five games but having said that, Clemson is too good around their own basket and their last five opponents have managed only 10.2 offensive rebounds per game in those games. If you take away Duke's second chance point opportunities you are going to shut them down and beat them. If anyone can battle it out on the boards with the Dukies it's Clemson. We all know how tremendous the Duke guard play has been this season and that has not changed in their last five games. Clemson is not very good at disrupting pass flows and teams can really move the ball around on this defense but that's because of how aggressive they are and when their high pressure defens doesn't work, it usually yield points for the other team. Having said that, Clemson has forced a whopping 16.2 turnovers per game in their last five games and they have a crazy 8.8 steals per game in those games which is pretty much why they always have a chance in games against opponents who like to play fast with them. This won't be an easy task for the Tigers defensively but this is a team that can score a bunch of points and with all the turnovers they force they almost always have a chance in games. Duke is a good team but this is not going to be a good night for these guys.

The Clemson Tigers come into this game averaging 72.0 points per game in their last five games which is impressive and tells me that they can keep up with some of the high scoring teams in the Conference. Having said that, Clemson is not shooting the ball well at all in their last five games as they have made only 38.3% of their shots in those games (well below the NCAA average for those games) but that could have something to do with the amount of shots they take per game as the Tigers have attempted 9.7 more shots per game in their last five games than the rest of the NCAA and that's just crazy. So at least we know these guys are going to continue trying to the very end whether they are up by 10 points or trailing late in the game needing some baskets to keep it close. The reason for that many shots is because of how pesky their defense is how much they press to get the ball back. Despite the poor shooting from the field, Clemson can actually knock the lights out from beyond the arc as they have made 38.4% of their three point shots in their last five games and have made an average of 7.6 three pointers per game in those games. Duke's perimeter defense is outstanding and they don't allow teams to get clean looks from the outside but having said that, Clemson has played against teams like this before and getting plays inside instead is something they can do just as well. The Tigers have been to the free throw line 22.2 times per game in their last five games and despite not being that good of a free throw shooting team, putting some of the Duke players in foul trouble is definitely what Clemson is going to look for tonight. Nothing comes easy against a very good defense like Duke's because they don't allow a lot of points, they don't give you easy looks and they force you to slow things down and play at their own pace. Like I said before, this game could come down to who wins the battle of the boards and if you thought Duke was on the offensive glass, checkout Clemson who have brought down 14.4 offensive rebounds per game in their last five games (the NCAA average is 9.7 offensive rebounds per game) and even if Duke does a great job protecting their own basket much like Clemson, the Tigers are going to have second and third chances on misses and that is how they have been scoring most of their points in recent games. Demontez Stitt and KC Rivers are both very good ball handlers and any guard combination that is good with the ball is going to have a chance against Duke. The Tigers have turned the ball over only 11.6 times per game in their last five games and that's important because Duke has a whopping 9.6 steals per game in their last five games and they have forced 16.8 turnovers per game in those games. These two teams are almost identical when it comes to guard play and the way they defend opponets and Clemson has shown on more than one occasion this season that they can ball with some of the best teams and this should be no different. This place is going to be rocking tonight and the Tigers should come out of here with a win or a very close loss.

Alright so Clemson has always been down for playing hard against Duke and I don't see it being much different this time around. This is not the spot nor the time to back Duke in a game despite their recent success (5 of last 7 ATS wise) as road favorites of 6.5 points or less. Other than that, Duke has been a horrendous team to bet on when it comes to Wednesday night games as they have covered the spread in only 6 of their last 20 games played on a Wednesday. As a short point favorite in general this team has not played well at all either covering the spread in only 1 of their last 5 games as a favorite of 6.5 points or less and I have to point out that against very good teams (with winning percentages above .600), Duke has covered the spread in only 1 of their last 6 games. Clemson on the other hand is in the most perfect spot to cover or win this game because they are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games as an underdog of 0.5 to 6.5 points, they 4-1 ATS in their last five games as an underdog, they are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine games versus ACC Conference Opponents and this should be one hell of a game. I know the road team has been the way to go in past years in this game but Clemson seems to always find a way to win or keep games close, this is a very tough building to play in when the games are televised and Clemson is going to bring everything they have in a game where they actually match up pretty well. I have them for a small play.

Impact Player: Bryan Narcisse, CLEM (Darkhorse if he plays)

Trend of the Game: Clemson is 8-0 ATS in their last eight games as an underdog of 0.5 to 6.5 points.


Clemson 79, Duke 77

Miasta- you say you have huge clients that play 10's of thousands of dollars on your picks- is that true or a fabrication?

I had a nice writeup for this game but my connection died and my page froze so everything was erased and I dont have the patience to start over again. Oh well this happens I guess. Good Luck to all tonight!

I won a huge tennis bet today and lost on a big fav as well but the underdog bet was huge. Hope this card works out, spent a lot of time on it.

Syracuse in the bank (with Devendorf player of the game as predicted) and Wake Forest is pretty much a loss. Need to sweep the rest for a good night.
