I'm torn here - Manhattan is the better team for sure, but giving the best player in the MAAC (Clark) a 10.5 cushion could be deadly.

Manhattan's double bye is huge though - you're right on with that. Jaspers are probably the right side, I'm just a bit biased because St Peter's has been a cash cow for me at points during the season.

Best of luck to you.

GL - I went small on the under....hoping the Jaspers have a bit of rust, but not too much so you get your cover ;)

Is Sowers going to come back? Thanks to him being a showboat and slapping the backboard he might be out for the game now :shrug:

Without him they seem to be lacking any sort of inside presense.

Yeah Sowers is on St Peter's....had 7 points I believe early and looked good - then on a break had to be a showboat and slapped the backboard after a dunk.....went straight to the trainer and had his wrist taped up about 30 seconds later.


If he doesn't come back - Jaspers should roll, St Peter's can't keep hitting these 3's with two hands in their face.

St Peters hitting a lot of off balance 3's, and two starters have 4 fouls already.....14 minutes left Manhattan up 58-45

St Peter's starting to fall apart at the seems - either foul on defense or give up a layup. 69-50

On a side note - I'm listening to these announcers make a case for Manhattan to get an at large bid if they lose in the MAAC final tommorrow - LOL. They even put up a nice chart of out of conference wins on the screen, maybe that 2 point win vs Holy Cross will impress the selection committee.
