early looks for Tues

[airportis]

Wichita St at home cant afford to drop this game to Missouri St. MSt is tough but they are horrible at the FT line. Wichita is 11-3 at home and this spread is under 2. Wichita has a chance to finish 3rd in the conf if they win their last 2 games. MSt is currently sitting in 3rd.


Notre Dame over DePaul
(read Raymonds thread)


Providence -3.5 looks like a bargain. this team is getting hot and couldnt pick a better time to be playing well. 15-2 at home vrs a WVU team whos only played 7 road games. this is a must win for Providence to help their chances in the big east tourney. WVU has struggled vrs teams with a strong post player and Herbert Hill could give them trouble. I think this line could possibly go lower than 3.5 so ill wait and see what happens during the day.


biggest play of the day i think is Providence

MSt is tough but they are horrible at the FT line.

FYI AP

got them @ over 72% from the line on the road this year

 

[airportis]

mst shooting 69.5% in conf games.

dont let their overall % fool you as they had some good performances early


theyve shot 70% or better from the line in 3 of their last 12 games.

their numbers are inflated from 2 games, one on 1/9 at home vrs Evansville where they shot 14/15 from the line, and the other on 1/7 at home vrs Wichita where they shot 34/40 from the line, with Blake Ahearn going 14/14. its very unlikely they have a performance like that again on the road.
