Okay, this card sucks! You have a bunch of teams who are either playing terrible or suck ATS. Coming off a nice day winning 2.5 dimes (damn I needed it!) Quit posting after yesterday as I lost .7 dimes for the day and seems like my plays do so much worse when I'm posting.

UConn @ Villanova - Wayns averages 18 PPG for Villanova and he's listed as questionable and doubtful. I'm guessing even is he decides to play, he'll be far from 100%. Nova is coming off a brutal loss in OT to Notre Dame and guessing they could be suffering some mental fatigue. UConn has just been AWFUL, but they have a chance to make amends for a horrid performance vs. Marquette against a short handed Nova club (Bell is out for sure and if Wayns is also out, I see Nova getting tired in the 2nd half). It's also time UConn's big men quit playing like complete pansies. They were crushed on the boards by Marquette.

UConn -1.5 (-120) for 5.5* - Not going to wait for the line move as I'm expecting the number to increase if anything.

Still undecided on the other games (Baylor @ Texas... thinking Texas, but they don't matchup very well and tough to back 2 dogs on a Monday). Also, will likely play that great Big East basement game between DePaul @ St. John's - Leaning Blue Demons at the moment, but not sure.

Using the same basic strategy for the foundation for both the UConn and St Johns plays tonight. Uconn backed up against the wall as well. Hopefully, we'll find ourselves on the correct sides. GL

I've been getting frustrated when betting teams in the Big East that are "up against the wall" (Pittsburgh) Pitt has managed to lose to South Florida twice, Seton Hall and West VA at home in the last 4 games.

In the Uconn game, I think Uconn is the play just based on talent. Don't know how many times I can go to the well though....You just gotta think that these Uconn guys have some pride, but they could be just mailing it in w/o Calhoun and the suspensions in 2013 on the horizon.

I do like the Johnnies though....DePaul is coming off a short turnaround on an overtime game and travel. SJU knows they're better than DePaul and I think they want to show that tonight in a certainly winnable game.

Texas -1.5 (-120) for 5* - Huge game for the Horns and they luckily face the poorly coached Bears. Just guessing Barnes makes some solid in-game adjustments while Drew makes some boneheaded decisions. Baylor probably has 3 to 5 NBA players on their roster (P. Jones, Miller are locks guessing P. Jackson, Acy, and A. Jones might also make a roster). They still looks like chaos half the time when they're on the court. Texas wins!

St. John's -5 for 4* - Playing a little smaller in this debacle of a matchup. DePaul might be feeling sorry for itself and the Red Storm at least try to play defense (heck, they have Gene "F*cking" Keady on their sidelines). I see DePaul having a tough time rebounding from their loss and St. John's has been solid on the offensive boards, hoping this trend continues.

Easy now, I love Gene F*cking Keady. He's the last Big Ten coach to have the balls to bring his Boilers' to Akron. The current crop won't take a 3/1 or even 4/1 deal. Bunch of pussies

I was just saying, Gene "F*cking" Keady teams know how to play defense. He was an awesome coach... heck of a demeanor on the sidelines.

Adding Texas Southern +8 for 3* for the heck of it. Miss Valley State has won a number of close games and Texas Southern lost to them in OT in their 1st game. I know Miss Valley St is 14-0 in conference so public will be all over them, but I can't take every favorite tonight. Just guessing Tx Southern comes ready tonight.

UConn 2nd half -2.5 (+100) for 2* - Small play... UConn ended half on 22-4 run. Thinking they'll come out strong the 2nd half and crush this undersized Nova club.

Well thank you Napier! Huge shot for me and some UConn bettors. However, many had -3.5 or -3 and ended up on the losing end. Wishing I had middled this sucker & was going to middle at +4.5 with a buy to +5.

:0074 Wow, All I can say is very lucky with St. John's. Had no business covering that game, but was VERY lucky in the last 30 seconds... I mean VERY LUCKY!

I didn't see it nor will I check out the play by play to see what happened and don't want to know. I'll take your word for it. Think of all the bad beats etched in our memories and just assume that they owed you one. It's nice to get one of these in the W column from time to time. :toast:
