Mass +4 and a few more

[grey beard]

Mass +4 for 4 units. Don't see where Temple has superior talent here at all. I see this one as a pickem type of game. This one might be close but like the home team and the points if somehow Temple eeks this one out.

Va. Tech +11.5 for 3 units. Va Tech and St.Johns played a tight one last time out at Va. Tech. St. Johns better at the guard position and Va. Tech inside. St. Johns is a slightly better team than Va. Tech but not 11.5 points worth...see St. Johns winning by 6-8 points.

Ga. Southern +1 for 2 units. Been riding Ga. Southern for awhile...and for the most part cashing. They play the better teams tough and games against the better teams are usually decided by a few points. Will take the home team in a close one.

Texas AM +8 1/2 for 2 units. Texas AM a pretty solid club, well disciplined and coached. Texas has a slight edge in talent and should win this game, but not handily. I'll take the 8 1/2 at home.

YTD 5 units=1-2 -6.0
4 units=3-1 + 7.6
3 units=5-2 +8.4
2 units=3-7 -9.3
1 unit=2-1 +.9
Total=+1.6 units

add col - 8 1/2 and Georgetown -9

add col - 8 1/2 and Georgetown -9

Adding Col - 8 1/2 for 4 stars. Col beat a good Kansas squad at home fairly easily....and now a mediocre at best Iowa St team comes into town. Iowa St has trouble scoring and think they can't get out of the 50s in this one...see Col at home in the 70s to 80s...

Also add Georgetown -9 for 2 stars. Georgetown one of the more talented teams that probably wont' get into the tourney. Normally hate playing them as favorites as they don't finish that well but given a number of frustrating games over the last few weeks against good competition, see them getting out early and never looking back in this one. UCLA has one scorer who will have trouble shooting inside at all...Georetown better athletes all around and UCLA is simply a real bad team that doens't play particularly hard. Georgetown by 15
