I don't have a record for college, I've only posted HT plays this year. Have tailed some of the guys in here due to time restraints but after watching the games the past few weeks, I feel I have a decent grasp of how teams are playing right now. So here goes:
NOVA +7.5
Under 123.5
WAKE FOREST +2
XAVIER Under 126.5
IOWA -1/2
OK STATE OVER 132.5
LSU -1
** DOUBLE PLAYS on all at -120 ** 1/2 pt buy
Have to like the way NOVA took over vs the CUSE on WED and they WANT GTWN badly. Wanting and beating are two different things, but I like the way NOVA shot the ball on WED and think that confidence carries over. HOYAS will still dictate the tempo, but in a low scoring game, I like the dog.
I just think WAKE is the better team and if you want to give me points with the better team, I'll be glad to take them! WAKE beat them both times this year and fairly convincingly, especially at FLA STATE. FLA STATE has trouble vs WAKE DEF as they shot under 40% both times. (36 & 38)
XAVIER held Dayton to 30% & 38% shooting in winning both matchups this year easily. Neither game hit 120, with XMEN winning 69-43 & 57-51
Although I'm a MICH fan, I can't back them here. IOWA is NOT good, but MICH is just playing horrible, coming in having lost 4 of 5 while only hitting over 36% once in their past five games. IOWA comes into this one having hit over 55% in two of their last 3, and I just see the better shooting team winning at a neutral site.
9 of the last 10 games involving TEX TECH have gone over the number as they are playing no defense whatsoever. Teams are averaging nearly 80 pts a game, getting nearly 60 fg attempts per game, and have hit for an average of over 45% on those attempts. I think OKIE STATE takes advantage today...
LSU beat them by 7, 62-55 in So Carolina earlier, and it just seems the TIGERS are the better team. I'm getting them at nearly a pickem, so with no home court for either, I'm going with LSU.
Good luck! :SIB
