Damn,went to the dance yest and got snubbed by many partners.Actually went 6-7 overall but my strongest partners told me to get off the dance floor,"you still have to many motown moves and you can't even do those well."
And they were right.I need to get back off the floor because I slipped on my ass about 6 times to many.
Well today is another 'dance" and I'm ready for it.
Pitt -9.5 over Cuse ******** strong play
Pitt already beat Cuse at the "dome" 66-45.Pitt has gotten better and the Cuse has faded.I'm way off on this line because I have it at double digits.I played with the numbers last nite again and it hasn't changed.
Cuse playing the upper echelon of the BE on the road are terrible.They have lost to Prov and Conn by 13 and 18.Even at the "Hall" by 7.
GMAC has that groin pull and is wrapped every game.He's not 100%.Warrick is tough but other then that the Cuse is not very good.Their 2-3 defense doesn't have the spacing it used to have.
Pitt is loaded.You guys know the players...Pitt's inside attack should dominate the bds.And Pitt has a gd or two that can play.
Pitt wins by 15 or more.
Prov -14 over Johnnies ****
Not going to break down game.Johnnies have 5 scholarship players and 5 walk ons.Gomes,Douthitt,Walsh,Kabba,etc.Johnson the 7'3 giant gets in foul trouble again.Prov plays its 2-3 zone.Johnnies only have one outside shooter.I don't think Timmy embarrases the Johnnies but kinda like a 71 -52 score.
MAAC games
St Peter -6 over Rider **
Peter has hit a wall.Has lost 4 of last 5 games.Lost to Niagara twice,Iona and Manhattan.Rider is not a good road team.Peter needs this win to get ready for next weeks tourney.
Manhattan -21 over Marist **
Jaspers just beat the Foxes last week 76-52.Today they have them at home.But Jaspers already clinched title and seedings for next week.Could be a backdoor cover when MC has a 20 pt lead and Bobby G empties his bench in the last 5 minuts. But the way the foxes have played Jaspers bench might be just as good.Flores will stay though to pad his national numbers.Small play
Canisius +12.5 over Niagara ***
Thats a lot of pts for these rivals.These guys always play close games since their next door buddies.Foster had a great nite hitting 3's.Griffs are playing better.Griffs are 8-3 ats away and are 4-1-1 ats in last 6 games.Purple on offense are loaded. The "UNLV of the East" But their defense would let some Buffalo-Niagara High schools teams score 50 pts.
Think Griffs give the Purple a game.
Iona -7.5 over Loy Md ****
Iona way back beat Loy 77-60.Iona has won two in a row and the "Box" is 0-2 gasoing against them.But vs Loy md they have dominated.Iona is loaded with talent.You have heard me say this 100 times.They play terrible defense,street ball,etc but they can out and out play.In the MAAC tourney they could be dangerous.Imagine if Ruland could coach.Iona is so quick that Loy-md will have problems with that.Iona has beaten them the past 4 times by 17 this yr and 23,37,and 12.
I have this at double digits so I like the Gaels to win there 3rd straight game and go to Albany on a high note.
North texas +5 over So Bama *
NT on a roll winning last 5 or 6 ats.But everytime I play NT or the NY Giants I lose.So maybe a fade.
NC St -4.5 over NC ****
Pack is ready today.NC St is 9-1 ats at home.They are 5-0 in last 5 vs Tar h's ats.Lost by 2 last month.NC on the road lost to Maryland,Clemson,FSU,and others.NC St beat duke by 4 and WF by 5.They will beat NC by a few more.
I'll be working on my "Smokey Robinson" spin moves today getting ready for my Prom Sat nite.I might not pick winners but I can still dance.
Best play.. Pitt wins big..
