Way to many games I like today....pick a few and ignore the rest.Have done pretty good lately but sometimes on Sat I give it all back.

Charlotte -4 over East carolina ********
In almost every catogory excepth FT % Char has the advantage.Char already beat ECU by 16 a month ago.Char has beaten the Pirates by 16,5,19,15 and 9 in their last 5 games.ECU has lost 8 of last 9 just beating So Fl by 2 the other nite.
Mikulas injury really hurt them.Char just upset Cincy on the road.they already beat SIU and DePaul on the road.Plavich has the range to hit from Jones Dorm 2 blocks away.[I know this because my son will be entering ECU next yr and thats his dorm]
Withers,Brown,Iti are to much to handle.Char should win this by 10 pts.

Niagara -8.5 over Fairfield ****
Purple won't take any prisoners today.Stags have got by w/o Todd and Gai.But those wins they got have been in Conn except the Canisius win the other nite.
Purples Dardan,Mendez,Reaves,Cruz and co should win this by double digits.Offense is ranked in top 10 and with less talent to gd I think Puple can win big.Stags on the road vs this dangerous team..

MiddleTenn-7 over FIU *****
FIU is one of the worst teams in the country.They can't shoot,can't shoot 3's,FT's,can't play defense and only have one true scorer and rebounder in Matias.But he's hurt and not playing.They are 0-6 ats at home where MT is 4-4 away.MT has Tommy Gunn one of the top players in the Sun Belt.Dean is one of the best 3 pt shooters in the nation.MT beat So bama and Naw leans already on the road.MT wins this by 12-15 pts on the road

Wisky-Mil -11.5 over Wright St *****
Wisky loaded with off. weapons.Page,McCants,Tucker,etc.Already beat Wright by 15 on the road.They like to press,force turnovers,etc.One of the top FG% in the country.This team is loaded.Wright has Doliboa inside and thats all.This is a small team and stopping 6'9 Page who can score from anywhere will be a problem.

Marist +6 over Canisius ***
This game will be close.Historically it has always been a tight game.Foxes are fighting for thier lives.W/O Doss the Griffs must use freshman Wilson.Marist is aslo using it frosh at pt gd in Jordan.He's one of the most promising kids.Both teams are pretty bad.Marist is shooting 29% from the 3, and 63% from the FT.But Griffs shoot even worse from the FT at 62%.McClukin should bang inside and keep this close.Griffs win by 2 or 3.

Stanford -5.5 over Zona ***
I think everyone is on Zona.Cardinals get no respect.I think there much better then the Cats.Zona on the road have L-Cal,W-WSU,L-Wash,L-UCS,L-Stanford by 10.Zona is 3-5 ats.I don't see this game as a close game.I think Zona gets spanked today.

Playing the following
ODU -1.5 over Hofstra *** Gibson out and Walker ????ODU is tough.

Pitt -4 over ND **** ..cannot see ND hanging around for 40 minuts.I see maybe for 35 minuts.ND does not have the speed to stay with the Panthers. Pitt has great gd play.That negates home court adv. Pitt wins by 6-10 pts

SIU +3.5 over Creighton *** wow..I think SIU wins this str. up.SIU is 8-1 ats away

AIr Force -11 over Wyoming ***
Flyboys beat Utah and BYU at home by 13 and 22.Wyoming is 1-7 ats in last 8 games.

Hawaii -17 over San jose st. **..Bows win big in a blowout.SJ cannot gd their own shawdows.Lyr SJ was +17 and lost by 1 at Bows.not this yr.

Richmond -3 over lil Dukies ****
To talented and plays good defense.Spiders get a road win.Skrocki to much.Dukies can't play defense

Hall -8 over rutgers **
On the road RU is still bad.At home they can play with anyone.Lost to Miami,Pitt,Georgetown,Utep by 10,10,6, and 26.
Matchup problems with Whitney inside and Barrett everywhere.Greyhounds of the Hall are quicker and shoot better.RU plays tough defense but I want barrett with 5 minuts left with a 6 pt lead.

Iona -5.5 over Siena **
Two teams playing so up and down.Siena has no gds and Iona is loaded with them.Saints own this series but maybe Iona plays like they did vs manhattan.If thats the case Iona wins this by 15.Siena already won by 4 a month ago.

Way to many games. Charlotte is my strongest play.
Again way to many games.Maybe pick one or two that agrees with you...GL

you are right about uncc.if game were not in greenville they should win by 15 or more.minges is not a great homecourt.fans get more involved when cincy,louisville and marquette come to town.i am all over it.my brother stayed at jones.tell to try the crows nest for cold beer and loose coeds.good luck

ODU -1.5 over hofstra *****
small upgrade
Didn't realize Riveria Hofs outstanding pt gd,leading 3 pt shooter and avg 2.5 apgs is out for the season.Gibson is already out for the season.And walker might not play today due to injured eye.
Thats 34 pts and 15 bds missing today.Hofstracould be down to 7 scholarship players.
ODU is tied for 1st in the CAA.Loughton and co are tough.ODU is 2nd in scoring in conf,No1 in FT%,Assits and DEF 3pt %.
I watched VCU beat up Hofstra last week but think ODU is better.
I think Percora will have a tough time today vs a balanced attack.Adeleke is by himself inside.
