Interesting games on tap today. . . here's my early looks:

UConn +5 over Cuse. . . line seems a little low to me and there's got to be a reason

OSU-9.5 over OU. . . line seems a little high and there's got to be a reason :)

Wyoming +2 BIG over New Mexico. . . Cowboys should win the battle on the boards which will be the doom for the Lobos. Lobos won the first meeting this year by 15 after destroying the Cowboys in the first half. Like this spot for Wyoming

Forgot one:

Wright State -2.5 over Butler Big. . . statistically nightmare for Butler all over the place. Also, Wright State is on a little skid. . . should help that Butler can't rebound. This would probably be my best bet for now

Sorry guys, kinda posting as I go along. . . Wright State looked strong to me but one problem: this is their 3rd game in five days. They had a recent three game stretch in seven days and fell big to Cleveland State on the road. . . a game they were favored to win. So what will the third game in five days do to them? I'm gonna lay off it but statistically, its a nice play until you consider that Butler is rested and Wright State probably isn't.

Colorado State VERY BIG +4 over Air Force

CSU is a different team at home. . . they should be favored in this one.

Would lean to UNLV but I don't like the fact that they can't rebound well against Utah

For those of you considering the CSU ML, I wouldn't take it and here's why:

In a game that should be very low scoring, every point is huge. We're getting 4 points in this matchup which is just like getting 6 points in a game played at a regular pace. But the ML is NOT high enough for a team that would be getting 6 points in a regular paced game (if that makes any sense at all). Just something to think about.

Utah/UNLV under 70 second half average

In such a tight game, Utah will be unwilling to increase the pace if UNLV attempts to but it appears that both teams were willing to engage in a slow paced game. UNLV should feel good about being down by only two and Utah is still winning so I don't see any major adjustments regarding the pace in the second half.

Everything I've posted has come in so far (of course I didn't play them all but that's still ok with me). . . hopefully CSU can keep the streak going in the 2nd half.

Opinion play only: CSU +3 2nd half

How many of Air Force's points came from the 3? At least four that I know of so that's at least 12 of their 18 points. Can't see them shooting any better in the 2nd half and CSU could pull away if they utilize their seven footers
