Friday Hoops

[Smitty]

i'm worried that this looks a little too easy, but i gotta throw one unit on...

winthrop (+5.5) the eagles' only 4 losses this year... at nc (winthrop led by 8 at halftime), at maryland, at wisconsin (by 3 in OT), and at texas a&m. hardly any bad losses in there. missouri state just lost to southern illinois and they face wichita state next. they may not be entirely focused on a friday night game against wintrop. again, it really looks too easy, so tread carefully.

I'm on a slide so I gotta tail you on this one buddy. Gl Tonite!!

 

[Smitty]

morris, this might not be a good time to tail me, although i certainly appreciate your confidence in me. under normal circumstances, i'd love this play. but it looks like almost everybody is on winthrop. when i see 75% on the underdog, and the line is barely moving, that normally means the fav is the right play. obviously i am ignoring my own advice, but it really is for a small play.

i like it man!!! good luck w/it!!!!!

Smitty the line opened at 6' it has dropped a point, I know a lot of people are on winthrop but they'll be fine.

 

[Smitty]

hope you're right, fellas. sometimes when they look this easy (going against nd in a bowl game, for example), i hammer the game with confidence. other times when they look this easy, i get nervous.

i'm heading over to my gf's, so i may not even get to watch the game.

go eagles!!

 

[Smitty]

oh, and spartan... i love the avatar.

 

[utcahoona]

the line just jumped from 5.5 to 6.5....thoughts?

 

[DietPepsiWinner]

good call!!!!!

 

[Smitty]

thanks, guys. with good ol' hindsight... what an easy play. we turned the game on just in time to see that 3 to end the first half. next time i looked, the eagles were up 10 halfway throught the second half. how sweet it is.

utcahoona, glad i didn't see that line jump. i was nervous enough about the play.
