    thursday ncaa (cleveland state/butler).....

    cleveland state/butler under 125 playing this under from a couple of different angles: *cleveland state should be much more competitive down the stretch with the return of pape badiane. they actually look like a basketball team again. you can look at the result of the last game (77-55 loss to...

    wednesday ncaa (duke/virginia)..........

    duke/virginia over 149.5 playing this one on the overnight line at olympic. kinda stumbled upon this one while i was capping the game itself. but after joggin the memory and rehasing the last few years meetings with these teams, its apparent that the cavs will run with duke, even if it means...

    tuesday ncaa (michigan state/illinois)........

    michigan state/illinois under 146 maybe im missing something, but i cant see this one being played in the 70s. i know michigan state has put up some big numbers their last 4 games (totals of 154,161,156, and 157) -- so perhaps that can at least explain the opening line -- but when it comes down...

    cavaliers not exactly the best team to lay........

    points with, but its a big game for them. *boston is in the 8th spot in the east. cavs sitting 3.5 back. a win here gets them right back within 2.5 whereas a loss would be especially tough on em- this is their final game of the season with boston. *cavs coming off an embarrassment on saturday...

    monday ncaa (notre dame/uconn)........

    notre dame (+10) over connecticut irish have been pathetic lately, especially in the 2nd half of the pittsburgh game. this game has the potential to send their season in two directions depending on the outcome. a blowout loss could send nd into a downward spiral for the rest of the season. but...

    fresno state suspensions........

    as ive said before, being the beat reporter for fresno basketball has to be the easiest job in the world. the stories and drama are endless: http://www.fresnobee.com/sports/bulldogs/story/8085432p-8943765c.html http://www.fresnobee.com/sports/bulldogs/story/8089087p-8947044c.html this team...

    thursday ncaa..........

    playing rare side/total of the same game. pepperdine (+18.5) over gonzaga pepperdine over 158.5 kind of a correlated play. this series has been played at a breakneck pace regardless, whether games have been close or not. but if pepperdine gets down early, they will push the tempo even more...

    sun tzu you follow the local ...........

    wac teams? got any opinion on utep and rice? figured maybe youve got a local perspective. anything of note on either of those teams? im a believer that rice is for real, but utep seems to be nails at home. any lean? (of course, anyone else feel free to throw an opinion out there) also, anything...

    late night louisville/memphis..........

    against my style, but gonna play this small road chalk: louisville (-1) over memphis got a feeling louisville still gets it done sans dean and garcia. good coaches have their teams step up and rally around one another in this kind of spot. also, i dont think you can underestimate the...

    tuesday ncaa......

    xavier (+6.5) over cincinnati kicking myself for not grabbing the overnight 7 at pinnacle, but dont think it will matter anyway. im a big huggins fan and i still feel like this is his best team since the kenyon martin-led bearcats. but just cannot lay points in the crosstown shootout. with...

    can anyone honestly say they have a read on.........

    this game to this point? if someone asked me to describe the game flow and who is doing what well, my response would probably be: uh.....hmmm...well....... can someone make sense of that ass-backward 1st half, especially the last 3 minutes? there were terrible coaching decisions on both sides...

    please tell me the st.joes box score is incorrect.......

    for the sake of st.joes fans, i sure hope it is. they made 24 field goals in the game and 20 of them were 3s? now i didnt see the game, so maybe those stats are incorrect and this becomes a moot point. but this just reconfirms that they have absolutely zero inside game and stand no chance of...
