    citadel/furman over142: paladins will be out for blood as the ciiadel upset them at home in overtime a month ago as 11 point underdogs, but the dd line makes me gun shy. however the total grades out at 134-35 with most services yet this number opened at 141- and has held fast. linesmaker seems...

    citadel +10-: disclaimer - this year posted socon hoops haven't been what they've been in the past, currently under .500 i believe. tonight i'll take a stab with the citadel, who have improved to an almost credible team. believe it or not citadel has home wins over vmi, w carolina, furman and...

    furman -1: paladins likely have a big circle around this matchup with the bucs, after dropping the last two games to their socon nemesis. two weeks ago in johnson city, furman blew a 42-27 second half lead to lose 75-71 in overtime, thanks to 21 turnovers. last year, also on etsu's home court...

    monday ncaa hoops

    herse's some random thoughts on todays relatively short card. marshall -4: jags usually play with some pace. this is their 3rd road game in 6 days, winning both of the first 2, 92-88 in ot @ ark st on saturday and 84-78 thursday night in hattiesburg. the problem is sala plays a 7 or 8 man...

    super sunday socon hoops:

    furman -10-: hesitate to post of late as last couple of weeks have been subpar, but this line has dropped to where i can say no. uncg has the recent edge, having won the last 2 matchups in greenville and the last 4 overall. but this season spartans have been flat at best away from greensboro...

    big sky conference

    montana -6: socon plays are wallowing mediocrity so i'll try my other fav mid major conference. montana is the defending big sky champ but currently trail portland state by 2 games @ 7-3. they just lost a few weeks ago when eastern washington beat them in cheney 66-65 in a game montana led 65-57...

    western carolina -125: big game for both of these teams as they sit tied for 6th in the conference, one game out of 5th behind the citadel. that's a big deal in the socon, as the first 5 teams in the conference standings catch a bye in the conference tournament, which is huge if you want to make...

    Random thoughts for tuesday

    haven't played anything yet (except jr's plays - nothing of my own) - buts here's some random thoughts i'm looking at: ncs -1 @smu: line looks about right but the wolfpack matches up pretty well with the mustangs. maybe i'm just kidding myself that they can run then down. boise -5(-130) - this...

    wofford +2-: biggest game in the socon thus far this year; it'll decide who has the edge in the run for the regular season title and it's no. 1 tournament seeding. no x's and o's to this, but this just feels like a bad spot for etsu. bucs just dropped a heartbreaker in johnson city thursday...

    socon hoops

    the citadel +2-: lets start off with some harsh reality. uncg is 41-10 overall against the bulldogs, and 24-1 last 25. Bulldogs' last win was in overtime 11 years ago. but the 'dogs have shown a little life this year, and currently stand 4-5 in the socon, tied for 5th place with - yep, uncg. the...

    socon hoops

    always looking for a reason to play in-season revenge games in the socon. all of today's games fit the bill today, but i think these are the best two: wofford +105: terriers are still in the mix for the regular season title, and by now we all know about the mocs' challenges this year. etsu...

    cal @ fsu

    the early line jump of fsu from -1 to -3- is not supported by any handicapping metric, but i did see this on the fsu team page: POSSIBLE STARTING LINEUP FOR CAL F #2 John Camden (14.0 ppg and 4.7 rpg; Has reached double figures in 15 games) F #22 Chris Bell (12.8 ppg and 2.6 rpg; Syracuse...

    wofford +2-: haven't done very well in socon picks thus far, but these two teams appear very equal at this point, from preseason rankings to current performance. what i do know is, in the modern socon era, wofford has won 9 of 11 in spartanburg, with the two mercer wins by 1 and 2 points. having...

    utc +5: it's been a rough start for chattanooga . the preseason no. 1 pick has suffered through a raft of early season injuries that slowed them out of the gate while etsu has come out hot and sit alone in first place in the conference standings. but the mocs have slowly recovered, most notably...

    vmi -5-: although the citadel is easily the worst team in the socon, usually relative strengths take a back seat when this two teams meet in the biggest rivalry game of the year for both. today's bet is nothing more or less than a bet that espit d corps will carry the day. tonight the members of...

    socon hoops

    samford -120: going with the bulldogs tonight in a game where the line move makes no sense to me. preseason rankings put furman 2nd and samford 3rd in the conference. however, bart torvik ranks samford around #300 and the paladins (still my favorite nickname) sit around #150 yet the line has...
