One unit each*........local lines
Duke -11 (When was the last time more $$$ was coming in against Duke? Duke has already pounded Wake twice this year and although I'm not a fan of backing the same team in the 3rd game of that type of situation, we are still talking about a 17-15 Wake team who at any moment can put up a clunker. Duke has been playing poor basketball for their standards, I know I'm going to get a good effort from the 29-3 Devils who need to build momentum back up heading into the tourney and to lock up a #1 seed....if they lose or don't cover, at least I'm going down with a good team.)
Ohio St. -4 1/2 (this hurts betting against my alma mater, but I feel this is the right side. I was at the Big Ten tourney yesterday, and Ohio St. looked sluggish and uninterested for 3/4 of the game. Today they face a Hoosier team that beat them during the regular season in Bloomington by a bucket so motivation will be there. I also like the fact that the Buckeyes have Dials in the middle to match up with Killingsworth.....while the guards and wings of Ohio St. are probably better than those of IU so match-up wise Ohio St. has the edge....also think Ohio St. has a much better coach. I also like the fact that Ohio St. is playing their second game of the tourney so they will be experienced to the "atmosphere" of the stadium and shooting backround. There were a lot of Ohio St. fans in the stands so although IU will have a lot of fans from the home state, this won't be a total one-sided crowd at all....also like the fact that Ohio St. is a realistic possibilty of catching a #1 seed should they win this tournament....they know it....think they play a good game today.)
Iowa +1 1/2 (A ton of $$$ coming in on sparty who is playing their 3rd game in 3 days. MSU played the late game last night....a physical and extremely intense game against Illinois and now must do the quick turn-around and play the early game against against the #2 seeded Hawkeyes.....I'll take the shorty.)
BC +4
Xavier +2
good luck today in whatever you play!!!
