1st snowstorm of the year.. I picked up my new grandaughter at Newark airport yesterday.Welcome Molly to the northeast.Going sled riding later today in a ninja turtle saucer sled.Went up in the attic and found it.Leonardo,Michelangelo,etc.My daughter saw it this morning and just cried.She remembers herself on it years ago...amazing how life is...and me not throwing it out...
Central fl +14 over Notre Dame **
Harang..is tough but think CF can keep it under 10.
South carolina +7 over clemson ***
Downey keeps it close.
Nebraska +5 over Creighton ***
Iona destroyed the Blue J's..Neb is tough.
Kansas -15 over UCLA **
Cannot see the Bruins staying with them.
Nova -2 over Maryland **
Nova gds are too good.
MAAC games...after fridays 3 airballs I need to get back in the game...here goes
Niagara -11 over Loy md **** strong play
NU is loaded...explosive..Lewis is back,Benn is -playing like the MAAC Pl of the year..Garrison,etc...Greyhounds Harvey had 25 the other nite vs the Canisius .He won't get that today.Loy too inconsistent...
Rider -13.5 over Marist **
I loved it at -11..still think Rider should win by 20.Foxes are terrible..dujan is there only scorer.They play that driible drive offense,no screens,kick out for the shot..but they have no shooters...Martin..you were an asst at Memphis...you had shooters there..now your in Poughkeepsie...last yr you won one game on the road....sorry..I thought I was in martins facebook for a second...can't get personal here..but vegas likes to throw in some extra numbers..that is why Marist is 2-0 or 3-0 ats...but not today..
St Peters -2 over Fairfield **
If stags had everyone,Nero,etc I would go the other way.But Jenkins and leon do such a great job and Bacon has gotten better.Last yr Bacon had 20 pts vs the stags...
Canisius -5.5 over Manhattan **
Griffs are on a roll.Parotta there coach is a Fordham grad and the rumors are he might take the job.So I think Turner and co come out smoking.Jaspers have lost a lot...
Kudo's to Gaudio at Wake....if you saw the last few minutes of the Zaga-wake game, Gaudio had wake foul with 8 seconds left leading by 3.Instead of letting zaga take a 3 to possibly tieing it up.You never see it...zaga player hit the 1st..then tries a quick shot as no one was ready....it worked..no one was ready..problem was he forgot to hit the rim..he shot it off the backboard...violation..wake gets it back and the game is over....as a former coach I always ask myself..how many games do you see a guy hit a 3 to tie a game up....nba,college,HS,many times...at least 3 or 4 times on ESPN's top 10 plays in a week....and how many times have you see seen a team down by 3...player gets fouled...he hits the
1st one,misses the 2nd on purpose..and then misses the 3rd,his team gets the off.rebound and puts it in....I don't think I can recall one ever...nice job coach....and when Guadio coached at army he was almost fired...
I gotta go...my texas, molly is about to embark on something she has never seen or done....sled riding in the snow down a hill...
