Monday hoops

[Box and one]

Belmont -13 over Fairfield ***
Belmont can score avg almost 80 pts agame...Mann is a top player in the conf...they have 3 players that have 55,56, and 66 assists...that is a lot of passing....they did beat North Car,M. Tenn and Indy St....they can shoot the 3,50% FG,etc.. a poor rebounding team and would have trouble vs a big front line but the Stags don't have that....Stags are coming off a huge upset over Manhattan the other day...Stags can't shoot or score...defense is better then Belmont's but won't be able to play catch up.Bels gds Mann and Bradshaw are big gds..and should score.Windler is 6'9 and the Stags will have problems defending him...

back later...

My only concern

My only concern

Belmont may be tired. They have played 8 of last 10 OTR. Small school- Not flying charter. Busses etc.

Come home for a mid-day MLK battle where the Athletic Department has made admission free and are giving away donuts to the 1st 500 fans that arrive.

Belmont is one of my favorite teams and Fairfield just had their great win over damaged Manahattan...

I like Belmont but wanted to voice my concerns

Musca....my big concern is not bel being tired but there 0-7 ate record at home....if they are going to break that streak what better team to do that against. ..gl

And I cover the OVC extensively. My lean would be to play this for the first half. If you look at there last couple they jump out on teams and then let up. I understand the play 100% and have no qualms.. just wanting to discuss

Peter +4 over Marist ***
Foxes lose 9 in a row,then win 5 in a row and now have lost 3 in a row...did win 4 of 5 at home...Peter who was terrible except win over Seton Hall has now won 3 in a row,4 of last 6...hard to keep track in the MAAC...Rider blew Marist out the other day and Peter blew Rider out....Foxes Hart and Lewis have done a great job at the gds...Kemp inside has been a huge disappointment....but Peters Dominique has emerged as one of the best players in the MAAC..avg 18 pts and 9 bds...Washington is also scoring 13 pts and 6 bds...after those 2 Peter doesn't get to much offense from any one else...but Peter always plays tough D...Foxes at home have been hot but think Peter can stay with them and win out right...

Vir -7 over NC **
Drex -2.5 over Delaware **
Hens missing Threatt is a big factor...love Sadler but he will miss his partner..

Ohio St -8 over Neb **
Bucks have to wake up here...to much talent with Ross and co...

Creighton +6.5 over Nova **
Everything favors Nova...Nova blew out Providence who blew out Creighton...St Joes another foe both played Nova gets the big edge...Nova plays great D and has so many guys that an score...but think Blue Jays rebound off the Prov loss and the big guy goes off big tonite...some one has to beat Nova...think tonite they get beat or tested.....

Musca....you were right..looks like Belmont ran out of steam in the 2nd half...1st half play would of been perfect...thanks for the heads up..

recap....Friday 1-0
Sat. 7-5-1
Sunday 4-3
