Ark St +1 over Tex St ******
Think this line is way off....Ark St had just won 7 in a row domniating the Sun Conf..then the lost a tough one to UTA at their place by 5 or 6....they shot better,scored more FG's but missed 11 FT's....Ark is in 1st place with 2 other teams....these guys are one of the best FG% teams in the country and are ranked 21st in 3 pt shooting...last yr they were ranked in the 300's in everything with a 11-20 season...new coach brings in some juco's and they could win the Sun Belt this yr....Carter and Thomas are big gds at 6'4.. Thomas lyr was one of 5 players to avg double d's,5 assists.5 rebounds,etc for the year..he is avg17 pts...Simms is the other 6'4 gd avg 13 pts...juco Lindsey at 5'11 avg 10 pts and has 151 assists...they have one true fd in Bruce at 6'7...no rim protectors or inside scorers...but they shot 52% vs UTA the other day....all big gds that can rebound and go inside...Bobcats don't have inside players either...KGT is 6'7 but plays more outside..they have no true post players...Texas has won 4 of 5 games....they play a deliberate offense and play solid defense..thats why they are 7-4 in the conf...they can't blow anyone out because they can't shoot or score...Tx St ranks in the 300's in those 2 categories. Pearsron,Black and Conley aren't scorers..they do not have one pure outside shooter except for KGT...think this is a bad match up for Bobcats vs Carter and co....Ark plays pretty good defense though...but they have way to much offense for the Bobcats to handle and not enough offense to stop Ark....think Ark wins this by 6-10 pts on the road.....and I will be sitting courtside watching this game...Ark needs this to stay on top of conf...strong play...
Siena +3 over Monmouth ***
Saints are dangerous and playing at home..throw out their record...they have the inside players to match the Hawks...Wright is an excellent pt gd and almost as good as Robinson...Hawks are 13-2 and struggled in last 2 games vs Rider and Manhattan..were behind Manhattan for 38 minutes...Saints Clareth is back on the team..in last 2 games is avg 12-14 pts and 6 or 7 bds.... Pastos must of lite something up his ass after being suspended for 4 games...Hawks have the best team w/o a doubt...but think they are in trouble tonite and if they play like their last 2 games saints win this outright...
Rider +4 over Fairfield **
Tough game..love both these teams...both up and down.... Rider loses 4 or 5 in a row and then upsets someone big.. Stags hit the wall after losing 5 or 6.. and now wake up...Rider suspended Jordan frosh pt gd and have played w/o him the past few games...that is a huge loss...but when I saw Rider play Marist last month they bough in this little 5'8 back up Ives...he looked good..well Ives since Nelson was kicked off had 10 and 11 assists..so that helps Rider..think Stags at home with Nelson are tough but with Ives playing like he is think Broncos can keep this close..
Bucknell -14 over Colgate ***
Buck beat them 83-69 at Colgate...Buck won 7 in a row but ran into Lehigh....Buck is 11-2 in the Pat conf..Colgate has won a few in a row...Buck should own the bds and shoots better..Colgate on the road is pretty bad...a lot of comparison games...Buck beat American by 20 at home where Colgate lost at home in 3 OT's....this could be a blowout
Baylor -2.5 over Texas Tech **
Ga So pk over Appa **
Troy -3 over UL Monroe **
UTA -11 over Ark LR ***
UTA is one game behind 3 other teams for 1st place..could be a 4 way tie....think Neal and Hervey win big here....
GaSt -1.5 over Coastal **
both Georgia schools are in 1st place..think they both win tonite...
strong play Ark St... big
next Bucknell.UTA and Siena
skip the rest....or go to the Apple Store in the Galleria..
line was Ark St -1..now its +1
