A lot of these MAAC games today have some meaning towards there seeds in the opening MAAC tourney on thurs.
Iona -4.5 over Peter ****
Probably everyone in the world is taking Iona...Iona has its top seed in place already so they are playing for nothing in the tourney..but they are undefeated in Feb,won 11 in a row and no way want to get a loss on theri record...Peter has been so inconsistent all year..they have 2 players that are solid...but friday nite at Marist they were down 18 pts before making a great comeback ..but still lost by 2...they cannot be down 18 pts vs iona because they will be down by a lot more vs the Gaels...Iona is loaded on offense..English can score..Laury inside should dominate because Peter has no front line...Peter will draw about 500 today at home only because its Iona..Iona cannot play defense but peters offense is so mediocre think they can out score them despite their no defense..think Gaels get a double digit win on the road..
Niagara -3.5 over Fairfield ****
Cannot believe I'm taking one of the worst teams in the MAAC vs the worst team..Stags have lost 11 of last 12..Purple have won a few recently...after watching both teams the past 2-3 weeks vs Marist in row 1, I think Purple is the better team..playing at home think Purple has more talent.Snowden looks good..Blackman was solid..Meyers impressed me the most..he's got a lot of talent..they are more athletic and quicker then the Stags...Stags have great player in Gilbert...and out side shooter in Nelson..Gilbert should be touching the ball 75% of the time...but he doesn't...I played with the numbers and stats...the line is almost what I predicted. had it at -3.5 or 4...but this is a row 1
Seeing 1st hand right on the court.. Purple win and cover...
Manhattan -5 over Quin *
Jaspers have better players... Quinn cannot shoot the ball...they have Drame big time rebounder and Hearst who can score..Pankey needs to play tough inside.. Andujar is tough..Jaspers are a dangerous team because they have good shooters,decent inside game and good coach that makes adjustments...small lean
Marist +9 now down to -8 over Rider *
If Lopez plays will pass on this game...Lopez didn't play in the Monmouth game and beat them by 3 on the road..Foxes were blowing Peter out and then fell apart...This is Lewis's last reg season game in the MAAC....think he might have a big game and keep this game close..Foxes already know who there playing.. Rider is playing for a 2nd seed..they get a bye either way and but stay away from Iona...
Monmouth -8 over Siena *
want to pass or take the saints..don't want to do that..I had the line a -5 or -6 but Poole Siena's top scorer is out today to rest for the tourney...hawks just win but don't beat anybody up...Saints really don't care about this game because there playing Marist or Fairfield on thur..so if Pastos team is down by 8-10 pts just empty your bench and rest your players and get ready for thur nite..small,small play
Houston -5.5 over USF **
Purdue +9 over Ohio St ***
Purdue is hot and think will give the Bucks a game...
Cal -3.5 over Ore st ***
Yest 4-1
Its snowing again..3-6 inches today..
