Love Niagara today...opps..Watched that game and it was brutal at the end.Purple up and in the last 5 minutes of play the most undisciplined ball.Fisher is a dog and i knew that yet still back him.On 5 straight possesions ..and up by 3 or 4,he forces 3 shots inside after being doubled teamed and tripled.Then he misses a giveme, misses a 1-1 to tie the game,shots an airball,fouls 35 feet from the basket,then with 20 seconds left down by 3 he intentionally fouls by tackling and grabbing a player to the ground..he's fighting with hodges his teammate with 3 minutes to go...Foxes outplayed Purple by hitting 9-12 FT's in under 2 min..
But thats my poor pick...knew this could happen and it did...and then Canisius almost beats Rider...
here we go again...hopefully with a win here or there..
Loy Md +6 over Siena **
Greyhounds struggled with Fairfield...Saints the same with Manhattan.Greys beat the saints twice this yr and have won the last 4.saints want revenge and are playing at home..Think this game comes down to the last minute with Greyhounds having a shot to upset.Saints can score and fastbreak but there rebounding is so bad.Saints win by 2..
Rider -3.5 over Marist ***
Both teams split and in Rider win McCrock and Spongy didn't play..I think Thompson inside has a huge game.Pound the ball inside..if spongy gets a few fouls Foxes post defense is in trouble.Foxes gds are playing well and McCrocskey is back..Little Thompson can score...Think Rider got a wakeup call vs the Griffs and foxes have to bestill celebrating beating Niagara...Rider wins by 10..
Ohio -12.5 over Buffalo **
Kent St +3.5 over Akron ***
Ark LR -3.5 over FAU **
Drake -2 over Ill.St ***
WKU -7 over North Texas ***
Spent so much time on this game.I tried and tried to take North Texas plus the points but I have WKU winning by 10.NT is 20-10 won 15 of those games at home.They are 4-8 on the rd.NT is a dangerous team and very hard to cap.They are so athletic,have 4 or 5 players that can stick the 3.A solid front line that can score and rebound.But they are so undiscilpined and poorly coached.Jones can recruit his butt off.He has 8 or 9 players on any given night can score 20.Dennis and Bell could shoot from anywhere...but there shot selection is so bad sometimes,there defense is bad and FT% is bad and they turn the ball over so many times..last yr NT won the Sun Tourney and then gave Memphis some problems in round one..
WKU has won 14-15 losing only to So Bama. They have Lee who is there top scorer,a good pt gd in Brazelton,Rodgers who can hit 3's.WKU beat NT at there place by 10.I see the the same thing tonite[10.00 pm game]
WKU has to be worried about the Green. They know there dangerous and athletic...and despite WKU's record they know if they don't win the Sun there is no senior prom for them.This should be a WKU-So Bama tourney
Hope to do better...today..GL
