    line for wisconsin in the final four with bennett ...

    trying to figure out how the ucla/lsu line and total compares to the wisconsin line and total in the final four when the badgers were there playing their halfcourt style. also does anyone know offhand the exact final score for that one?

    division II championship: winona/virginia union ....

    small play on the under 142.5 two teams trying to do different things. winona can score points in a hurry, but vuu can really lock teams down. vuu held seattle pacific, a team averaging 52% fg and nearly 86 ppg this year, to 40% shooting and 63 points in the semifinal. winona is coming off a...

    uconn/george mason opening line .....

    anyone else surprised that pinnacle's first number on this game was uconn (-7.5)? seems very, very low. anyone get the feeling that uconn is going to beat the ever living shit out of gmu on sunday? there's gotta be something to be said for regression to the mean. uconn has played horribly for...

    something that seems to be forgotten about gonzaga ......

    it seems that many are quick to dismiss gonzaga as overrated but there is one thing that cannot be ignored with this program. they are an incredible underdog. there is no doubt they sometimes do 'just enough to win' as a prohibitive favorite. there were countless times this year where they...

    tough to fathom that the entire final four from last year is done .....

    after the first weekend of the tournament. of course, you can be technical and say louisville is still alive in the ncaa junior tourney. but considering that a lot of marquee teams are gone before the sweet 16, the ncaa has to feel pretty good about the matchups theyve got in the upcoming...

    wisconsin-milwaukee is a tempting dog but .....

    the last time they played a team as athletic as florida, they were run off the court. memphis 79 uwm 52 yes, it was in november. and yes, it was jeter's first game. but 19 turnovers and sub-30% shooting is tough to ignore. milwaukee is going to come into this game expecting to win. they are...

    seems like only yesterday stan heath was the hottest coach in america ....

    when he was at kent state, winning with guys who knew how to play basketball and actually got BETTER in the final minutes of games. now, for about the third straight year at arkansas, his collection of athletes underachieve yet again and get bounced by bucknell. felt before the tourney that...

    mac thursday: akron at creighton ......

    dont want to get too crazy with the nit, but this game is sort of flying under the radar because of all the ncaa tourney opening day hype. going to take a shot on creighton (-5.5) there's no doubt that akron is talented enough to hang here, but this is one of those games where one team will be...

    how many times are we going to watch defenses give up uncontested layups on ...

    out of bounds plays underneath the basket? i swear its a nationwide epidemic and has been going on from the maui tournament in march straight through to today, where ive seen it 3 times to 3 different teams. hell, it is probably the reason that cincy is in the NIT right now (seeing as they let...

    tuesday nit .....

    small plays on: manhattan over butler under both fdu and manhattan love to get out and run. fully expecting both teams to creep up into the high 70s or even low 80s. manhattan has a way of getting to the line a zillion times at home as well. expecting the track shoes for this one. butler and...

    nit update: western kentucky ....

    just a heads up that courtney lee won't be playing for western kentucky tomorrow against south carolina. so the hilltoppers will be without his 17.4 points and 6.3 rebounds. that's not to say south carolina is the play because under normal circumstances, wku would be an ideal NIT underdog...

    well maybe west virginia doesn't get bounced on the first weekend after all ...

    my god, what an incredibly favorable draw. the tourney committee found a way to pair them up in the same opening weekend bracket with the only teams that might be less athletic than they are. southern illinois? iowa? this on the heels of creighton and texas tech on the opening weekend last...

    horizon league championship: butler/uw-milwaukee ....

    for the last few years the horizon league tourney has been one of the best small conference tournaments in college basketball. this year, its been boring as hell and completely devoid of drama. * no game has been decided by less than 9 points. * favorites are 5-2 heading into tonight. * overs...

    2nd half: hofstra/wilmington ....

    wilmington gave high-scoring northeastern no shot at a comeback in the final 20:00 yesterday. same scenario today. ostensibly, hofstra has to force tempo and get the game up and down to get back in it. but coming back against wilmington is similar to trying to comeback from DD against a team...

    mac tournament: opening round .......

    ball state at buffalo these two split the regular season matchups with each holding serve on their home floor. after losing a legit mac player of the year candidate (stovall) early in the year to an acl injury, bsu has spent the entire season trying to find consistent offense. skip mills has...

    late night: loyola/st.marys .....

    going under 141 somewhat of a 'system' play. conference tournament time allows for a lot of 'quick turnaround' games matching up teams that just played late in the regular season and now have a quick rematch in the league tourney. for example- hofstra/george mason played late in the regular...

    maac moneylines .......

    going to take a shot on these two moneylines with the goal of splitting and scalping a few bucks. just cannot see both chalks advancing. somehow someway a dog will advance in one of these games. marist (+145) over iona st.peter's (125) over manhattan for as talented as iona is on paper, you...

    davidson down 19 as a 16 point favorite ....

    they've cut it down to 12. don't like to make a habit of playing big favorites in the 2nd half but with the citadel coming off an outright win as a DD just 24 hours ago, it would be a shocker if they pulled off two upsets like this in 48 hours.

    isn't betting against creighton in the mvc tourney similar to ....

    betting against miami-ohio in the mac tournament? very risky proposition. people count these two teams out every year and they do nothing but win every march, no matter what happens in non-conf and then conf play. bradley is a pretty solid basketball team but a bit surprised to see some sharp...

    thursday: memphis/birmingham .....

    memphis (-3.5) over uab get the sense that uab is becoming a 'chic' upset pick for the night. but memphis is coming off arguably their worst performance of the season and should handle the blazers here. way too tough to ignore the +20 edge memphis held on the glass in the first meeting. tigers...
