just throwin these up real quick. will add some more in-depth stuff on saturday morning.
butler (+8.5) over detroit
*figured this line would be like 5 or 5.5. number makes no sense. yes boys, i know butler has been my nemesis all year. but this series is incredibly tight every year. these two teams probably play more games decided in the last 1:00 than any other 2 tms i can think of. theyre the one horizon team that isnt intimidated playing at calihan.
(sheets suffered concussion vs csu on thurs. doubt hes playing, but still think the spread is too high for this series)
*last 3 in this series have been decided by 1,3,and 3. butler 7-3 SU last 10 vs detroit.
bowling green (+12) over kent state
*kent normally excels in their rare national tv opportunities, but dakich as a DD underdog is almost an obligatory play. theyve had their struggles on the road this year, but this game should stay in the 5-8 point range the entire way. bowling green shoots the 3 too well to get blown out. and theyre one of the best FT teams in the nation as well.
cleveland state (+10) over illinois-chicago
valuist is correct: csu starters logged big minutes vs butler, but at this point in the season, theyre used to it. vikings have actually played very well at home of late. theyve been crushed on the road, but for some reason, they have performed well at the convo center. uic not a great road team whatsoever. if vikings dont shoot 7-20 from the line, they would have beaten butler. csu hangs. both teams likely to clang a lot of FTs. gonna be in attendance for this one, so if necessary will insert myself into the game for the final 5:00 to knock down FTs. -- (cant believe im paying even 7 bucks and parking to see a 3-20 team, lol) -- to assure a vike cover. would you believe that csu has actually covered 7 of the L8 in this series
