Pac-10 Thursday (big play inside)

[bgold13]

A re-fund your account play so to say... putting the profits back into the account becasue I have a love
This goes agagist the "system" play that some posters love on this board but this line seems out of wack to me

Stanford +??? 1 yes +1 to USC

Its at the Sports Arena in LA, so there is no home court advantage(usc basketball fans may be the worst than in the pac) USC is coming off two dismal games on the road... only to take on two more ranked teams in LA this weekend. Star Desmon Farmer was kicked out of practice Tuesday for doing something wrong during practice... this is constent with Bibby as a coah in throwing players out of practice. Stanford on the other hand impressed me again with a tough victory over an excellent and underrated Washington squad, the Trees can hit you inside and as usual from outside. Besides having no road worries this year with wwins at ARIZONA,andASU to name a few, road problems are not there. Stanford finds ways to win the close games.. USC struggles in that department and are going to need to find some kind of spark that they thought they had after hte win over UNLV 2 weeks ago. LOVE STANFORD +1 BIGGGGGG
More to come

what do you think...

what do you think...

of Washington @ home laying 5 to Oregon State? I'm very tempted to play Washington here as they have been playing well as of late, but was unsure of them in this spot. They have performed very well as a large dog on the road against the top teams in the conference, but not being an avid follower of the Pac-10 I was not sure how they had performed in this role, the mid-range home fav. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I just finished looking at this matchup and two things caught my eye....

1. Back on Jan. 25, Oregon State-3' won this game on their homecourt, 82-62.

2. In Oregon State's L 3 games, they have played poorly...very poorly.

Granted, they've played some tough competition, but based on the final scores, they weren't competitive in any of these three games:

v OREGON........63-80.....+3.......loss/no cover.....-14 ats
v STAN...........73-84......+2.......loss/no cover.....-9 ats
v CAL.............71-84......+1.......loss/no cover.....-12 ats

Washington is a young team which lately, seems to have found a workable team chemistry. They've been playing pretty well as of late and I like WASH -5' at home w/ a little revenge in mind.

The GURU of the PAC-10 strikes again. BG LOVE the Stanford pk. Great point on Stanford hoem court. I saw UofA play @ USC back in Jnauary and I believe it wa stheir largest crowd of the year at like 7000, however teh stadium holds liek 15,000 and ZONA was the #1 team. USC is SO flat right now Stanford is playing GREAT ball, you knwo I am not a big PAC-10 bettor but this one I will bite on for sure!!

 

[bgold13]

WCB- Im glad you asked because it was one of my plays I am adding:

Wash -5 over OSU

LOVE THEM HERE: I was waiting to see where the line was going on this one before poisting: You guys pretty much hit this one straight on.. ORE St like UCLA and Oregon you just dont know who will show up.. I have been big on OSU lately and they have let me down, but that is not a factor in this play. Washingotn has blood on their minds. Their last home series they lost back to back overtimes to the Arizona schools, then traveled on the road and were beating Stanford at half and lost in a closer game than the final indicates, then took #18 cal to the wire at Haas which is the toughest place to play in the west. They need a win to keep a ucla team behind them in the standings and clinch the pac-10 tourney spot, a win over OSU at home is not lonly a must win, but an easy win the way these two are playing. WASH is the most underrated team in the pac and if they can move to 5th,6th or 7th in the pac, i think with some help can win the pac-10 tourney. Play UW

 

[bgold13]

add Oregon -10.5

why the Ducks on the road? Depite being hte most overrated team in the country and being awful away from mac court, they still have more talent than WSU at this point by a longshot. WSU cant match up with ORE athleticsm, Oregon is surging,, I thought they would lose to OSU on the road, but blew them away instead, they better not look past WSU tonight, becuase they have a difficult game sat vs wash, but oregon should blow a dejected wsu club away, a team that has done very well ats lately, especially for your truly. I think I have hit WSU games 6 straight,either with or agasint htem, hope its lucky 7

 

[bgold13]

CAL -1 at UCLA NO PLAY

Some may look at this and scratch there heads, but CAL continues to struggle agasint subpar teams and UCLA has been getting dangerously close to ending there streak in the pac-10. When the Bruins and the Bears met up at Haas, UCLA almost came all the way back and won, Slight UCLA play, but im not playing it

 

[bgold13]

RECAP:

STANFORD +1 BIGGGGG
WASHINGTON -5 BIGG
ORE -10.5

 

[bgold13]

looks like my pod is going up agasint ace's play of the day... Stanford +1

 

[ststrl]

No body can touch the PAC-10 GURU. BG I am with you Stanford shoudl roll! :toast:

p.s. you heading to El Segundo for the Laker practice?

 

[Howie's Hot]

Good luck gold, I'm with you on Stanford and Washington but am gonna take the 10.5 at home with wash st....Ace scared me a little but I just can't see stanford giving this one up...

 

[Ace Rothstein]

I really like southern cal and I will tell you why even though stanford should be the play,BUT Las vegas and the oddsmakers are very,very smart.Now usc has terrible defense and they got there ass handed to them in tempe and in tuson.I agree with all the stats pointing towards stanford.My theory if stanford does not get off to a good start it will be a long night.Now stanford a underdog.I have a friend who watched usc and stanford practice yesterday and usc looks sharper,now even though bibby kicks out his players in practice they need this game for the ad of the school.For this reason I really like usc to beat stanford.Information is power but what the hell do I know about college hoops,Good luck to everyone!!!

 

[gjn23]

Seeing as ACE is a hellvua a "streaker", I'm glad I'm on the other side of him tonight. His 13 game winning streak ended and now his losing streak is growing.

Stanford even stronger than before.

Anthony Washington not playing

Anthony Washington not playing

You still like the Huskies with Washington missing the game?

 

[bgold13]

yes i still think washington is the play.. they are playing well between suddenly one of the top 1-2 pucnches in the pac in nick robinson and doug wrenn... obinson if you dont know him joined the team late after teh freshman completed his first year as defensive back for the husky football team.. he is a spark plug like earl boykins is for hte warriors, and as a bonus he is a fantastice shooter.. I was aware that Wahsington wasnt playing and still love the dawgs.. hopefully the huskies dont get in foul trouble trying to contain phillip ricci tonight.. then we could be in trouble

 

[bgold13]

Ace- what does Mike Garrett USC AD have to do with this.. his job is very secure, because of the success of hirinng Pete Carill.
"Were talking about practice" Allen Iverson The la times says Farmer was thrown from practice becasue he messed up the same drills over and over... doesnt sound too sharp... but were talking about practice!!! thanks for the info from the other side its always appreciated.. good luck to you

 

[bigplaymakerjoe]

Your buddy is lying to you about watching Stanford practice yesterday. They didnt have a full practice, they had a walk through so you can keep take your false info somewhere else.
