PAC-10 1/20

[bgold13]

pac-10 thursday

OSU +1.5 AVERAGE PLAY
UCLA -7 STRONGEST
CAL +7.5 STRONG

UCLA -7 home to Stanford: Although UCLA did still lose, and it's hard to imagine a moral victory when your basketball team is UCLA.. but they showed they are legit in tucson on saturday... this team will play everyone tough.. stanford on the other hand needs a socal sweep to get back in the pac... ucla has too much starting talent for stanford.


CAL +7.5: I don't think USC has the right to lay 7.5 to anyone at this point.. They are coming off their best game of the year at ASU on saturday... and they played very well in tucson for 30 minutes on thursday... but this jekyll and hyde team needs to prove it to me in the long run.. USC has more talent than CAL.. but they may not beat them.. take the points and don;t worry sc hoops has no home court advantage.

OSU +1.5: This line seems odd to me, i had the Devils penciled in around +2.5, and thought it would be a solid OSU play... OSU is playing well at home right now and I expect that to continue. Actualyl ASU is playing well on their opponents home courts so far only losing once... at arizona and coming away with wins at temple, at berkeley and at stanford... I just can't figure ASU out and I think they are in free fall mode.. Average OSU play

You can say that again! :142lmao:

Good luck with your plays.

great info. good luck

Bgold I do not understand why you keep backing Cal. I hope you win as I will not lay the 7.5. However, I think Cal is the worst Cal team I have seen in years. I mean they are just pathetic. I see Usc winning this game by double digits easily. I think they run them out of the gym, but will not play the game for various reason. Like I said i hope you hit, but backing this cal team is very risky. I was shocked you had them against Standford last time out. :scared

 

[bgold13]

I backed Cal at home to Stanford because it I thought it was a two good programs in down years... and the only advantage I thought was CAL playing at home.. I though teh Bears would fare much better, but they didn't...
Cal has held their own at Washington; USC plays down to their oponents level... I can almost guarentee I won't be on Cal on Saturday when they come to Pauley, unless they get 15 or more

 

[Master Capper]

good luck, I am a little gunshy on backing Cal again they seem to have some injury problems!

 

[bgold13]

UCLA down to -5????
hitting it harder now

prop bet on olympic

over 32.5 total point + rebounds for ike diogu

no brainer here.. he has had much success vs osu in the past... his numbers have been down the last 2 games.. but that was ucla's size ans sc's quickness... ike will go 25 pts/10 rebs tonight

 

[bgold13]

rob evans may be the worst coach to ever be on the sidelines in the pac-10 for 7 years.. ike has 2 touches in the 2nd half, no wonder osu is on a 21-2 run.
evans needs to be let go asap

the diogu prop hit... he had 25 in the 1st half.. and one shot in the second half.. no foul trouble and his one shot was an oreb putback. lucky lucky win on that prop

 

[Rcxslam]

hey nice posts...gl tonight...what is your take on the ducks tonight?

 

[bgold13]

i like the over.. i try not to bet on arizona games becasue on any given night they can be the best team in the country or a below average squad.. no play for me

Pac Ten Play

30022956-1 1/20/2005 10:20 PM Spread 410.00 372.73 Basketball - 757 Arizona -2? -110 for Game

 

[gjn23]

but just give rob evans "two years to build that program" and "the gap is closing (on the ua)" and "wait til i show the pac-10 how to play defense"

it only took 7 years for you to stop buying his BS ?????

 

[bgold13]

well 2 yeras ago he did lead them past memphis in the 1st round of hte tourney, but his preaching of defense is no longer preaching... he has totally abandoned it.. asu plays by far the worst defense in the pac-10 and the sets on offense they run are even worse... with the talent tehy have, they have no excuses not to be 16-2 right now

 

[gjn23]

1 ncaa appearance
1 win
in 7 years

yeah.

personally i hope the guy stays so we keep winning 19 of 20 vs you guys.

bear down

 

[bgold13]

whats your point here? i said evans has to go... i bet on oregon state tonight, and i bet on ike in a prop.. so far thats 2-0 on the day, thats my focus on this board.. i was ranting above because i didnt think ike would get the over.

i'm not bashing your cats, in fact i even said earlier that they have the talent to be the best team in the nation. so if you want to get into an asu/ua debate, this isnt the place for it

 

[gjn23]

no debate here

just tired of hearing all the "up and coming talk" smack from asu fans (not you) every year....never seen it in 20 years.

had to hear it again this year after their start vs the maricpoa school for the handicapped, now 3 straight L's when they play real teams....would like to see them competitive when opposing pac-10 teams make their az trip

 

[west coast guru]

Bgold stay away from CAL. They could not finish in the top three of any other conference in America. I am telling you the worse Cal team I have ever layed my eyes on. They have one player :scared

 

[gjn23]

cal should finish 10th in the conf

 

[bgold13]

the sad part about it, cal was winning in the 2nd half.. i wonder waht happened since their was no tv on this game anywhere
