Updated record:

Big 12: 24-10-2 (+$2,000) -
Other: 10-4 (+287)
Total: 34-14-2 (+$2,287) - 71%

Yesterday recap: Went 3-0, with UConn, Indiana and Alabama all coming through.

I have two plays today:

Oklahoma -8 (OSU), -110... 110/100
--- This game is what it is. A poor team heading into a tough venue against an arch-rival who has much more talent and leadership. Two troubling things first, though... OU has been letting mediocre teams hang around them all season, and have played in many close games... there last three games have all been won by a single point (KSU, TT, ISU.. 2 were at home). And also, OSU has showed some feistiness since Little Sutton took over (I wonder if there is anything to that?).
Oklahoma has a veteran team that knows it needs to finish strong, and I don't expect them to take OSU lightly after three consecutive games that they could have easily lost.
Also, it will be rockin' in Norman tomorrow. The fans hate OSU and won't care that the Pokes are only 15-13.


Other conferances...

Have been able to hit on other conferances as well recently, so I am going to give this game a shot, as I love the line.

West Virginia -3 (Pit.), -105... 52.50/50
--- Only three points to Pit? Other guys on this board seem to think Vegas is trying to drive money to Pittsburgh with this line... I have the complete opposite fear. I think this line will direct people to WV, who has a big home court edge, is the favorite, and is a much more fan friendly team. That is why the low line scares me a little.
When I think Pittsburgh, I think Jekyll and Hyde. This team is 16-0 at home, and a pedestrian 5-4 on the road. WV is 12-3 at home.
WV KNOWS that they need to get their act together as the tournament approaches. They are 2-4 in their last 6. This does not really worry me, I don't view that as much of a slump as I do them playing an absolutely murderous schedule.

Good luck tonight guys!

Lowell, imo. I think this one goes over the total. WV went scoreless through a total of 11min in the first game. Pittnoogle went (0-18) 0pts. Krauser for Pitt didn't score until 17 minutes left in the game and finished with 8 pts. Think both of these guys will get more than that today. Oh yeah, Gansey only had 11pts. in their first meeting. GL2A

Fellas...

I would lean towards under, but it will be a no play for me.

I think Dixon knows he needs to slow the game down (like the first contest) and try to beat WV around inside. He knows he won't win a track meet, shoot out with these guys, and he has the horses inside to play slow.

If WV starts out hot early, though... everything else is out the window. Gameplans seem to change real quickly when that happens.

GL with whatever you decide...

Said I'* be following you in the Big 12. Can't do it tonight though. The forum's other Conference guru is on State. You both have such great insight that I don't like being opposite one or the other. Did compromise on your side and took the Sooners first half. Pulling for you Thor!

Nice win on the Mountaineers :thumb:
