MAAC tourney

[Box and one]

MAAC lines just came out.
St peters -2.5 over Rider
Niagara -6.5 over Iona
Fairfield -2.5 over Siena
Had 2 pushes last nite with Marist and Iona.

Will come back and capp games

Dayton -3.5 over lil Dukies. *****
Dayton on the road has been terrible.Dukies have been playing pretty good.But UD has to wake up today.They are a much better defensive team and should control the bds. Dayton ats on the road is 8-4 while Dukies are 3-10 at home.Waleskowski,Finn,Marshall and co are way to much for dukies

Notre dame -11 over Johnnies. **
Johnnies have been playing hard but when they play the upper class teams of the BE with 4 players they lose big.Prov by 25.Conn by 18 and BC home 28.ND wins by 15.Don't think they run it up.

Texas -5 over Kansas St **
KSU lost at home to Neb and Mizzou by 10.Think the same happens with the Longhorns.UT is a good ats road team.

Miss St -3 over Bama ***
Sometimes revenge and payback get way overated.But the Dogs I think come out smoking tonite.Bowers will quiet the bama crowd and Roberts inside does the damage in the paint.

Playing La Tech +1.5 over Tulsa **
Boise St -2 over UTEP **
Wisky Mil -1 over Detroit. **.is Page still wearing that cast???


Will be back later on MAAC games
St Peters -2.5 is looking real good over Rider

[Box and one]

St peters -2 over Rider[line dropped] ******** strong play
Rider is coming off a come from behind win over Loy Md last nite.Down 53-48 with 8 minuts left they got their act together and made a 19-6 run to win by 8.Johnson scored 31 pts and the broncos can't celebrate because in comes peter who has had off since last Sunday.And last sunday they beat Rider 72-67.Last yr Rider lost to Peter in the MAAC sending them home.
peter is led by Keydren Clark who leads the nation in scoring avg 27 pts a game.His partner frosh Nichols has been sensational at the other gd spot. He will win MAAC frosh of the yr. He has hit 61 tre's.Sowers and Yates are the 2 juco transfers that both avg 10 pts a game.
Rider has JJ who last nite almost singlehandly beat Loy Md.But he's no match for Clark.Castleburry is the 7'0 but has been inconsistent. Last sunday he had a monster game vs peter scoring 16 pts and 12 bds.Muniz can score but Riders others gds are ok.
Both teams have a 3 gd attack,1 post player and 1 foward.Clark and Nichols are so much better then JJ and the rest.
Peter is quicker up and down the court.Has more depth and has...Clark.He can penetrate,dish and of course is one of the best shhoters in the nation.
Peters fresh legs also helps.Peacocks win by 6-10 pts

Fairfield -2.5 over Siena **
Stags after losing there 2 top scorers have rebounded better then anyone could expect.They lost to Siena by 2 last week after winning 9 of last 10 games.Siena also played last nite vs marist and that game was somewhat close.Saints pt gd Jackson has to be tired.Mitchell there 2 gd is out.Saints can hit the bds.A great rebounding team.But I think Fairfield is a little quicker and guys like Maxwell,Goode and co have elevated their game.Stag defense is better but Siena is playing on home court.Small lean to Fairfield.

Niagara -6 over Iona ***
Purple have dominated in this series ats wise going 7-1.Iona defense cannot stop Purple.There scores the past 2 times with Niagara winning them all are 97-91 and 105-81.NU loaded on offense cannot stop anyone on defense.Iona plays strretball and had a tough time beating canisius last nite by 2.
NU's inside game is so much better.Dardan lyr forgot to showup in the MAAC tourney.he was blamed for being elimanated.
They have never won a MAAC tourney.I think they are focused.This is the best team Niagara has had in yrs.Scoring wise they are 5th in the nation.Think they can play enough defense to slow down Iona.Iona will score 75 pts.I just need Naigara to score 82 or more.

Wisky -Mil -1 over detroit ***

Wisky has been on a downslide.Det plays great defense.Think they get on the right Page tonite.McCants is tough to gd no matter what Det throws at them.Tucker can score.I like Wisky here.

New Mex +3 over Colorado.. Granger carries them **
Pacific -12 over Cal River **
Yale -2 over Columbia its brother vs brother.I'll take the "nutmeg" bro.

Best bet St peter....
