remember when the BB started, it was teams that were legitmately on the bubble? now it includes sacramento st against se missouri st and jacksonville st against eastern michigan (and, yes, i'm playing one of those games). progress!
all games 1 unit, unless otherwise noted.
oh, and way, way too many games today.
nd/wvu under (130). 11 straight unders in this matchup.
rutgers (11.5) next two games for syracuse - at 'nova and at georgetown.
colorado st (pk)
providence (pk)
st louis (-8) 2 units. crazy line. st louis has struggled since ellis went down, and now he's out for the season. but this line is a few points higher than it should be. almost impossible to bet st louis in this spot.
rice (+2) 2 units. almost begging you to play memphis, isn't it? how could anyone in their right mind play rice only getting two from memphis?
michigan st (-3) maybe the spartans have gotten things going in the right direction.
ok st (-2) 2 units. unranked team favored over a ranked team... a&m already blew out ok st earlier this year...
bracket busters
james madison (-9.5) line seems just a bit too high
austin peay (+5.5) anti-maac
illinois st (+4.5) anti-mac
jacksonville st (+5) still anti-mac
george mason (-4) way, way too easy. i actually expect to lose this one. gm has covered ~84 games in a row.
wisc-milw (+4.5) say it with me now... anti-mac
maine (+5.5) i keep saying it... siena hasn't covered as a fav since 2010.
wofford (-9) is there a mac team i haven't bet against? i hope i didn't miss anyone.
murray st (-7) go racers!
utah st/st marys under (137) really looking forward to this game. leaning st marys, but i prefer the under. i think this is almost a play-in game here; the winner should be fairly safe to get an at-large berth if they lose their conference tourney. i expect a lot of intensity and defense.
