The best conference in hoops...our players go to classes and do homework and graduate..we play very few games during the week..like Friday and Sunday games only....we play very little defense and our post players and fds are all 6'5 or 6'6...we love offense and hate defense...a couple of yrs ago we had 4 scorers in the top 10 in the country..."we are the MAAC"....let have a jump ball......
UMass -7.5 over Siena ***
Had this game reversed until an update check...Saints gd Brookins is out for a month...being in Texas didn't pick up on that..I always get the Albany paper but now must get it on line...with Brookins I thought the Saints could keep this close..but w/o they are hurting..they have OD who leads the nation in rebounding..Hymes who is 5'8 is the only player who can dribble...they had problems with TO's with Brookins..Mass has Chazz Williams who is the team...he is hard to stop with his penetrating attack of the hoop...Morgan can score..Mass has to much and should win this on the rd by double d's...they do have some guys that can keep OD in check..Mass can't play defense but the Saints can't score...
Iona -8.5 over Niagara ***
Iona has a big time stud in Jones..will be the POYr in conference..he is avg 25 pts a game and will end up being in the top 10 in scoring in the country..Armond his partner is avg 21 pts..Iona in the paint is weak but NU has no post players..in fact the Purple top 4 scorers are all gds and 5 of top 7...they would play with 5 gds...no post players..4 gds and 1 fd...Green and Mason are probably the best tandem in the conf..throw in Tanksly and maybe the best trio...these guys can score...avg 80 pts a game...but they cannot play any defense...they give up 84 pts a game ranking them 342nd...is that the lowest in the nation?...but Iona gives up 77 a game...Iona should win 92-75..
Ohio -11 over Bonnies ****
Bonnies are hurting and who is going to stop DJ..Ohio has some scorers and their is no way Bonnies can exchange baskets...blow out..top game tonite.. Ohio can shut down Bonnies on defense
Wisky -10 over Vir ***
Cavs are in a lot of trouble 2nite @ Wisky
Berggren at 6'10 will dominate..Super frosh Dekker and co are more physical then this young Vir team...hostile crowd..Bo blows these ACC guys out of town. Wisky front court should dominate..
UTA +8 over North Texas **
Hate going against Mitchell and co but UTA blew NT out lyr by 34.. Mitchell wasn't there but think Reeves at 6'10 is enough to slow down the Mean Green...think by Jan NT will be a team to reckon with...
Creighton -13 over Boise St **
After watching them play twice last week...tell me this isn't one of the best teams in the country..they rebound and play D..and have a lottery pick...
New Mex St +5 over UTEP **
Clemson -4 over Purdue **
Jenning at 6'9 and McD can score..these guys can defend the paint..
