Cuse -9.5 over Brown **
Small play and tough game to capp. Cuse 2-3 is not invincible last year and this year. There are some chincks in this zone. Cuse has Buddy who last year exploded on the scene in the NCAA's. But Cuse defense is giving up almost 80 pts a game and Colgate beat them 100-85 and they won in OT over Indy 112-100. The past Cuses teams always had air craft carrier in the middle as protectors of the fleet and 6'6 6'7 destroyers on the wings and always a PT boat that could penetrate anyone's fleet. They have Buddy who can shoot and Girard but think once the ACC starts this team might struggle somewhat. Brown doesn't have the size or athleticism that Cuse has but that might not scare them. They lost to NC by 7 and lost to Colorado by 2. They did lose big to Creighton and I think there offense has Lilly and Wojick Choh and Friday all avgs in double d's. But think Jimmy Boe can figure out the Bears strengths and weakness's and get a double digit win. Pounding the ball inside to Swider and Edwards will make match up problems for Bears defense. Then kick out to Buddy who should be open .. small play becasue Cuse ats record in bad . If there were more games today would skip it. I capped the line at Cuse -10 so if it was -10 would pass But saw it at -9.5 so of course I see the huge advantage of that 1/2 point. Small play hope everyone had a nice Christmas and holiday
