Big Big Thursday

[Nickelback]

We'll start off with one of my biggest plays of the entire year. . . not my GOY but this comes very close because its a situational play:

Pepperdine pk over Saint Marys HUGE

Saint Marys has received a lot of attention so far this year because of their record and the fact that they took down the Zags at home. I was on Saint Marys for that game. . . here's why this is such a situational play: THEY HAVEN'T PLAYED A ROAD GAME IN OVER A MONTH! Since December 14th! They have been playing on the same rims for 35 days now they are supposed to come in against a good Pepperdine squad at a pk? I see the public is on Pepperdine slightly which is fine because its the right side! :scared

Play this one hard. . . very confident about this one. This will be a big day for me. . . have other plays with write ups coming

Depaul -2 or 3 over Marquette very big

System play first of all but there's a lot of system plays that I'm not extremely confident with but play because its part of the system. I really like this spot for Depaul. Marquette hasn't proven themselves to me especially on the road. Think Depaul handles them from the start and wins by double digits. I am hoping this line comes down another half point to two and will wait for a while but I'd play it big at three which is why I posted both lines

No prob vyrus. . . I'm glad it cashed for you!

 

[vyrus858]

yea great finish...im pounding your 2 plays tomm, lets take care of biz

 

[Nickelback]

Lets do it! Feel very good about these plays especially Pepperdine. . . not a big as Dayton was last Saturday but close. Dayton played an inferior team while Saint Marys is definitely not inferior.

 

[vyrus858]

yea but you make a great point, this team hasnt played away in over a month and Pepperdine is one of the most solid squads in the nation IMHO..well know tomm lol

Nickel,
I always look at the card before looking at the jack and i only had 1 play for tomorrow. It was depaul. Last night my top play was LSU and my other play IU. Anyway, we are seeing eye to eye on these plays and i am loving it. They are cashing right now. I respect your capping A lot and like it when i come to same play/conclusion on a game as you. Anyway, GL and lets cash depaul. Im gonna go cap the pepperdine game. However, u make excellent points about st. marys.. I had them against gonzaga as well..

anyway GL

GL with Pepperdine tonight! I was VERY close to playing it myself, but seeing that they've lost two in a row just turns me off. Hope you nail it!!

 

[Nickelback]

They did lose their last two games on the road to the Zags and Portland (both games they were road dogs) but Pepperdine is still the "right side" tonight!

Line is up to -2.5 at Olympic. I would play this very big up to 3.

gl NBack, I watched the zags/st marys game for 40 mins, STM hit 16 treys outta 27 i think, and hit 9 of first 11 treys--no way to win for Zags vs that torrid shooting on rd---Im hopping on Wave too

thanx

Looks like a nice night for you!

Adding Montana -4.5 above average over NAU. . .

Great information on this game from a few cappers on this board. That's what makes this such a great site is sharing information and picks. The NAU coach fully admits that he hasn't had time to prepare his team for this game. That's more than enough information for me especially when Montana is coming off a loss to their rival.


I rarely play totals but will take a shot once Olympic posts totals. . . got some good information on this one that I'll share once they are posted.

thanks for the info guys. Great thread.

 

[Nickelback]

Arizona/Oregon over 72.5 above average

The Ducks will definitely play a fast tempo game against Arizona. . . I thought Lute may focus more on the defensive end for this game but instead realized from his press conference quotes that he intends to run right along with Oregon. He said this would be a fun game for players and fans. If there are any adjustments, I would expect them to come at halftime from Arizona which is why I really like the over for the first half. Should be run and gun without the need for a shot clock.

 

[Nickelback]

The Arizona total is moving up quick. . . jump on this one now if you plan on taking it. I still believe the first half is the better value especially if Lute is pissed off with the lack of defense at halftime. Should be run and gun the first half from both teams.

bumpin up the thread. best of luck tonight nickel. pepperdine has always been a great team for me when i bet on 'em. frankly, im amazed that line opened at a pick. i guess the gonzaga result really skewed the line. waves never play the zags well in spokane so no surprise they were blown out. but this is a solid basketball team. im gonna jump on pepperdine for the 1st half. might be goin the other way on depaul. i know its a system play, but demons never seem to play well in the role of chalk. install 'em as a dog, and they play great. we'll see if that holds true tonight. best of luck. nail the big one~!
