Nickle, I'm in and I'm in hard. I've been watchin since your big wins last week and your picks impress me! Started slowing down there for a little bit but that happens. I've only tailed you on a few because some I already had and others I just didn't want to jump on, my record with you 3-1, I like those numbers--

Marty,

I appreciate the opposing views and you bring up valid points. My GOYs are typically system plays anyways that I bump up because of other things that I notice. The reason this play is GOY status for me is that Cuse hasn't played a true road game and the extreme difference in records as Missouri is just above 50% while Cuse has only dropped one game all year. So why is Missouri such a significant favorite over the defending national champ and ranked team? Hopefully we find out tonight :D Good luck with your play on New Orleans.

Mize,

Thanks buddy. . . yes I did miss that one and glad you pointed it out. I use covers to check out team matchups and they didn't show Providence as being ranked (they probably use the other poll). Since I have such a large wager on this system play, I'll make Seton Hall an average play.

Actually, unless I'm mistaken the SH - Providence game is not a system play. To my knowledge the new polls have not come out yet but when they do in the next hour or two you would expect Providence to have dropped out of the rankings (considering they were only ranked in one of the 2 polls anyway and lost both games last week). Still think the play is solid, just not a system play.

Good question. . . I think its still solid at 5.5 but personally I like the 4 that I was able to get. If you can, buy the half point to 5 if you would like. I suppose its more of a personal decision now that the line has gone up.

road test?

road test?

I think that you are making too much about this being SU's first test on the road.

The starting 5 and sixth man all played significant minutes last year. As I recall, all there games in march were on the road.

I happen to love the way that Boeheim has brought this team along this year. I would not expect to see many minutes out of the freshman now that conference season has started except for Roberts. Roberts is part of the 3 headed center for SU, which has 15 fouls to use on Roberts.

4 of the 5 starters are hitting 50% from the floor and GMac is hitting 42%, most from long range.

Don't discount coaching mismatch that will take place either. Snyder has been a big disappointment in my book.

I think SU with the 6 is the right side but I could be wrong.

1. There are too many on this board that DO NOT take into account home court advantages enough. So I would turn around your statement and say this:

"Most cappers are making too little about this being SU's first road test"

Last year is done. . . this is the defending national champs playing their first true hostile road game of the year.

2. 4 out of 5 starters hitting 50% from the floor SHOULD happen when all but one of their games are being played on their floor! I would expect them to know their own rims quite well by now ;)

Best of luck with your play. . . you may win this time, but in the long run, I win by playing these type of matchups.

I could not agree more. If this is strictly a system play, then you play it.

In a handicapping sense, I believe SU with the points is the right side.

Good luck.

****ing sick. Not even in the ****ing ball game. What a sick effort my mizzou. The game is not over yet, but they are getting outhussled etc. This cuse team is for real. Hope we can come back nickel, but it looks bleak.
