Thursday 01/22/04 (YTD: 21-16-1 +5.06 units/4-0 last 3 days)

Great night last night as some of you know with Duquesne winning by 17 as a 10 point dog and Temple winning by 4 as a 4 point dog giving me a 4-0 week. Again we keep it simple with 2 plays:

Wisconsin-GB +1 at Loyola Chicago
Richmond +15 at Kansas

Let's keep it going...good luck!

your type of philosophy on betting is real smart
you need to start teaching these other greedy ten parlay givin our folks and tell people how to bet.


good luck

 

Jak thanks bud. I just want to do my part to help. This board has given so much to me in the way of winners it's about time I gave something back!

I saw your St. Joe's/Louisville thread and that thing should've cashed with great ease. Good luck tonight I hope you cash big.

Sportsbet looking for an early game, leaning towards your Wisc GB game. The only thing I'm concerned is that they have played two games in about two weeks. Who the heck made that schedule. I think they come out a little rusty, like against Wisc Milw. and win in the second half! We'll see!

 

Kap this is as much a play against Loyola as it is a play on UWGB. What I'm basically saying is that Loyola is really, really bad this year and GB has one of the best teams they've had in a long time. They may come out rusty but the Ramblers aren't the type of team that can take advantage of it. If UWGB was more offensively minded I would worry about the rust but they are a defense first slow it down type of club that seems to be popular in Wisky (excluding Marquette). Loyola doesn't play defense and if they can't score they're doomed (and UWGB will be hard up to play D).

The Ramblers have won 5 in a row in this series so you know GB has to be jumping at the thought of kicking these guys while they're down. GB has a major edge in 3 point shooting and a decent edge in free throw shooting. Rebounding is my only concern for GB but I think they can overcome it. Loyola is also turnover prone and there isn't much of a homecourt advantage for them either so I think GB coasts here.

This conference is a bit tricky sometimes to cap but this one goes into "expect a moneyline winner" category. Knock on wood it's not a trap.

Good luck tonight!

Sportbet, any analysis on the Richmond pick? Seems kind of risky going against Kansas AT Kansas. Just see many games today..why Richmond? If you have the time to respond..thanks! Good Luck!

Right,

This is another high octane vs bore you to death game where I think the more defensive minded team can stay within a pretty high number. Richmond has done well on the road (4-2 ATS) and they play solid defense so I think they will be able to keep themselves in the game. Kansas goes to sleep at home through stretches and they're a dismal 0-5 ATS at home. If the Spiders were really deficient enough statwise against Kansas I would've passed on it but I think Richmond can hang around. KU has been 15 point favs in their last 2 home games and failed to cover (KSU and Nova) and I think it'll be the same story tonight.

Good luck...

Thanks SB! Nice analysis. You would think Kansas is "due" to cover at home, but when you wager and think like that is when you lose. I like that you're riding a streak instead of going against one...I'll be on it with you!! Thanks for the stats!

Nice Job on Richmond

Well I was right about one thing Bill Self needs a big victory to get the locals going post Roy Williams

WELL HE NEEDS IT REAL BAD NOW. Miles looks like a guy that could be playing for James Madison, and the big lumix Graves in the middle is not intimidating anyone.

Kansas in trouble now. If you attack them, they will lose. They have no real offrensive threat. Though I look for them beat up on someone, but overall they are not a top 20 team
