recap: 2-1 +.90

overall: 87-63 +17.80

Just bet this one before the line moves. I think it's a very attainable spread. Starting on my reasons for it now.

#558 Syracuse -21 1/2 -110

Colgate at 2-5 and 0-0 ats
Cuse at 6-2 and 3-4 ats

Colgate scoring 65.6 ppg and giving up 76.3 ppg for a diff -10.7
Cuse scoring 71 ppg and giving up 65.8 for a diff 5.3

Colgate shooting 41.2 fg, 66.4 ft, and 30.8 3 pt land, 15 to's and 34 rebs
Cuse shooting 41.6 fg and 69.9 ft, and 37.6 3 pt land, 14 to's and 36 rebs

The diff of 16 means everything when you compare schedules. Colgate with a lot of cupcakes to average schools so far. Cuse has played some teams. They beat ST Bonny, UConn, A & M, and lost close games to Wiscy and Georgetown.

Obviously, the talent level goes to the Cuse big time. Colgate returns 1 starter but do have some transfers.

These two teams have played 10 straight years.

The Cuse won last year 78=43 and Colgate had 4 starters back that year. The margin of victory has been 35, 19, 36, 45, 57, 34, 36, 28, 27, and 23.

Cuse has lost their last two games and are without their coach. The interim is already feeling pressure. I think he turns them loose and they crunch. Cuse don't play again until Dec. 13 so play you best and get a big W in which they really need right now.

Just got through all the games, just played these. To tired & will write up in the morning, or later in the morning, since it's morning already. I have at least 5 more plays that made my lean list. Going to go over those again tomorrow.

#534 UTA -19 -110

Bradley at 1-8 and 3-5 ats
UTA at 7-2 and 7-1 ats (that's right and I've been riding them for awhile now)

Bradley scoring at 55.7 ppg and giving up 68.9 for a diff of -13.2
UTA scoring 76.7 and giving up 67.4 for a diff of +9.2

Line should be higher when you throw in some home court.

UTA are 2-0 ats at home
Bradley are 0-2 ats away

Bradley shooting 36% fg, 62.7 ft%, and 10 off boards & 24.9 de = 34.0
UTA shooting 40.5 % fg, 70.7% ft, 17.3 off boards (they pound the glass) and 28 def =45.3

Bradley: 3.0 steals and 4.7 3's a game
UTA: 8.1 steals and 7.2 3's a game

Bradley are 1-5-1 ats last 7 on the road

UTA won last year at Bradley by 9 and return a bunch of players and Bradley lost a bunch

Uta just keeps winning: w's over Ohhio St, Memphis, Utep, close loss at Texas in OT, on and on,

UTA next game on 12-21, hopefully they can get pumped up as they have a shot at a really successful season,


#536 Texas -24 -110

UTSA at 1-7 and 2-3 ats
Texas at 4-3 and 1-5 ats

Pick your spots carefully with Texas as their spots have been high with the high expectations with Shaka at the helm. Texas are0-5 ats at home.

UTSA scoring at 71.4 ppg and giving up 86.4 ppg for a diff of -15.0
Texas scoring 72.0 ppg and giving up 69.6 ppg for a diff of 2.4

So it looks like they think HC is worth 7, and it's not, just bumped it up because Texas is a popular team right now.
I'm taking them because Texa schedule has been much tougher than UTSA.
Plus you can't give up 86.4 ppg against yoyo's and expect to compete with a team that plays defense like Texas and they are at home.
I think coach is aware that the team needs a coaster, big win that is, and this is their best chance so far.

UTSA lost by 33 to Clemson, 25 to Creighton, and their last 5 games they have lost to: S. Utah by 3, C. Ark by 14, Texas S. by 11, Texas-Permian by 5(who and the heck are they) and Texas ST by 23. Things just aren't looking good for this matchup IMO. Texas are nursing some injuries but I got a feeling it isn't going to matter.

#538 Marquette -17 1/2 -110
#538 Marquette over 150 1/2 -110

I generally don't like to have plays in hoops on both the game and total. I just couldn't refuse not taking a shot at this one. I'll do my best to explain the plays together.

San Jose St at 4-4 and 4-3 ats
Marquette at 6-2 and 4-3 ats

San Jose St are 5-2 o/u and 5-0 o/u away
Marq are 6-1 o/o and 5-1 o/u at home

SJS scoring 74.1 ppg and giving up 74.6 ppg for a diff of -.05
Marq scoring 81.8 ppg and giving up 71.6 ppg for a diff of 10.1

Home court stats are even better for Marquette offensively. The line is a tad high, but Marquette is on a roll and have appeared to find some groove under Wojo's system. They have Wiscy in 4 days and I just can't imagine them going into that game after a bad game. Marquette 5 games streak since losing to Iowa. With w's over LSU, Ariz St, and their last 3 games by 19, 46, and 37 points.

SJS shooting 43% fg, 61% ft, and 30.2 from 3 pt land with 35 rebs and 5 steals
Marq shooting 49% fg, 70.3 ft, and 33.1 from 3 pt land with 40 rebs and 8 steals a game

SJS last year were (2-28) they have already won 4 games. They are on a 3 game winning streak, w's over San Diego, Alaska Anchorage, and Antelope Valley. Losses at Idaho by 20, at Montanan St by 12, at Toledo by 15, and aat Santa Clara by 3.

Hopefully going to add Marquette to this list.

San Jose State is 6-11-1 ats last 18 games on the road (Like it)
The total has gone over 5 of San Jose State's last 5 games on the road. (Like it)

Enough rambling. I'm on Marquette and the over.


#527 N Iowa -4 -110

N. Iowa at 5-2 and 4-2 ats scoring 79.9 ppg and giving up 68.1 for a diff of 11.7
G. Mason at 4-5 and 5-3 ats scoring 63.1 ppg and giving up 63.9 ppg for a diff of -0.8

I really like the line. I usually don't play road fav's but taking a shot with this one. The games in this series have been pretty close to the vest. Only play this game if you really like N Iowa. Once again kind of a dangerous play taking the visitors. The last 4 games in this series the margin ov victory has been decided by 6, 6, 6, and 6. GM have covered the last two and 3 out of the 4.

So why N. Iowa for me?

Northern Iowa is 13-4-1 ATS in its last 18 games on the road
Northern Iowa is 9-3 SU in its last 12 games on the road

N. Iowa return 3 starters from a 31-4. Predicted 2nd in their conf.

N Iowa shoots 51.6% fg and 74.3% ft and average 9.7 3's a game while shooting at 43.6% from 3 pt land, and 5.1 steals with only 11 to's a game
GM shoots 42.5% fg and 61.4% ft and average 5.4 3's a game while shooting 31.2 from 3 pt land and 3.2 steals and 13 to's a game

How can I not play them? They lost a tough one in the opener at Colrado St by 6, and beat North Carolina by 4.

GM has been a up and down team, with losses to Colgate b y 13, Mercer by 9, and Towson by 20, yet nice w's over Mississippi and Okl St.

I'm playing N. Iowa, but once again the home court is mighty powerful at times and weird things happen in all sports, but especially college hoops.


#522 Xavier -21 -110

Wright St at 3-5 and 2-4 ats
Xavier at 8-0 and 5-3 ats

WS are scoring at 60.6 ppg and giving up 63.9 ppg for a diff of -3.3
Xavier scoring at 82.4 ppg and giving up 65.1 ppg for a diff of 17.3

Line is close. I think it should be more considering X at home (I have them worth a extra 5 at home) and on one heck of a roll. Confidence is a big factor. How can this team let up when everyone of them are playing so well and competing for minutes.

WS shooting 40% fg and 75.2% ft
X shooting 44.9% fg, and 73.9 %ft

Where this game will be decided is on the boards.

WS averaging 7.3 off and 23.6 def for a total of 30.9
X averaging 14.0 off and 29.0 def for a total of 43.0

Maybe things will catch up with them or they could let down but still going to be tough for Wright St on the road. Wright State is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games on the road.

WS has 3 w's. They beat S Dakota, Albion, and MT. St. Joseph. They did compete with Kentucky, or hang around to only lose by 15.

X definitely have proven themselves, now can they maintain it.

good luck everyone
