Sunday's "out of the box"..

[Box and one]

Will post games later.Had a nice day yest with many positive boxes.Even got lucky with GMAC hitting the 3 at the buzzer and winning with the Cuse.The line dropped to -2 at Carib,so instead of a push got a win.But the "gods" get you back everytime when dayton fouls with 1 second left.

Besides my own picks there are so many people here in MJ's that had great days and influenced me on my own picks.I'm going to list some and I know when you do that I leave many out.Many of you come into my posts and give me "props" "Kudos" and pats on the back.I try to do the same but the volume and time is so consuming.If my wife is working[like today]I do get to play a little more.

I played the "Bows" yest even though my figures had SIU.
Thanks Crazy888,LivingLarge[Weber st too],Blackman,Nole
Thanks and congrads too

NY Reb-Boise St,Texas

T-Bone..great 1st 3 picks.AF,LaTech,Boise
G-man..i played ETSU only because of you,thanks
K-Dogg Pacific i loved last nite.And Purdue was another great pick.Nice job
Big Tease..nice under Cuse,.I thought the same thing with W-Mich fans.I also think Col of Char had some terrible calls go against them in the end.[shot clock block]
Doubletwo,nice wins with ND,ETSU,Lat and Pepper,and Pac
Twofingers..I got lucky with the Cuse.I know you passed on them.If GMAC is off the cuse is in trouble.Even at home in the dome
Costanza..damn..what a day.Stan,Johnies,zaga,Joes.I had most of those too. congrads
Cooz..I read your post.My figures had Mass at -4.But I watched fordham the other day vs Joes.I hate lappas.I don't know why I didn't listen to you.It was a small play for me but I was really leaning to the Rams.I was born in Fordham hospital.Grew up across the street but my father is a Manhattan grad.Please feel free to come into my post anytime and kick my ass.You were right on the money in that game.
Cappin..you were right.I go against Manhattan. My team in the MAAC.All my life going to jaspers games. My father didn't talk to me for months when I went to North texas st instead of MC.
MC and Flores put on a clinic vs Wisky-Mil.I atched the entire game.I wish I knew Pages boot he had on was so big.But MC "schooled" Wisky from the opening tap.
Nice job
Eugene..nice Miami cover over Prov
Ksyas..friday nite props for cornell

I know I missed many but damn ,there were a lot of winners.If i missed some please give a prop or pat on the back here in this thread.I had a big day yest with my own picks.Then I steal many from you guys and my day was even sweeter.Even woke up this AM with a Bows win I would of never played.Thanks again

Also can anyone download last sundays NY Times article in the sports section.It was feb 15th.
Oscar Robertson wrote one of the greatest articles I've ever read."NBA Market....Fundamental Basketball is a thing of the Past".

Will be back later to capp Rutgers-BC and Rider-Fairfield

"Vig" out

Take care mate.

BC-6 over Rutgers ****
Big game,tied for 5th in BE,both "bubble teams",etcI had the line at -8 to 9 so I'm giving the -6.
RU plays great man/man.They team rebound and shoot the 3.But on the road they are 2-8 .They still can't get solid wins on the road.
BC's has smith who is a stuf.Inside attack of Smith,Dudley and Agabi is a matchup problem for walters 3-gd attack.Inside defense of lama-lama-ding and Axani are not enough to stop BC interior attack.Any if lama gets in any sort of foul trouble its all over.
I see a close game but BC should pound the ball inside.RU doesn't want to go zone but might have to.
BC wins by 10

 

[joe23]

box,ole jet motel buddy here lol,pinnacle has it at 5.5,talked to coach burns lately?gl today

 

[wolfpacker97]

Like the BC play.

 

[rompil]

Got any thoughts on the Bonnies?

Think 14 is way to many point to give a team that beat R.I. SU!

 

[Crazy888]

B&O, thank u for all your plays. i look forward to your picks everyday and coattail many. i dont get coverage of alot of the lower echelon teams, so most all of those are forum picks. but the more i keep up with everyday and remember past games, i do see some lines that look juicy to me from time to time. anyway, thanks for all your hard work also. and thanks to all the other madjackers. truly a great forum with alot of knowledge.

Fairfield -9 over Rider ***
Stags already beat Rider in NJ 65-40.Thats 40 pts.What a great fensive job.If you lok at all the MAAc stats both teams are almost even.They rank 4th and 5th in almost 8 catogories.Fairfield stands out in 2nd in defense ranking but Rider is just 2 notches below them.Fairfield is No1 in rebound defense but Rider is 3rd in 3 pt shooting.
Both teams have 9-5 records and are tied.Both teams have big post players in Thomson-Castleburry.Rider does have a stud in JJ.But Stags Maxwell and others have steeped up to play better since the injuries to its two stars.Two NY kids I saw in Glen Falls lyr are helping off the bench.Rider has won 4 of last 5 road games.But those are against the Griffs,Saints,Foxes,etc
JJ will be hounded on defense.Stags are 9-1 ats in last 10 games.They are ranked 3rd out of 233 teams in ats standings at 17-6.They are much quicker then the broncos except for Johnson.Goode is a 5'5 waterbug playing on warp speed.
Overall quickness,Thomson is better then Castle and playing their last home game of the season.Stags have fooled the experts.Everyone thought they would fold up after Gai-Todd.
They answered by winning and of course covering almost every single game since.
Stags win by 10-14 pts

Bonnies are 0-7 ats in last 7 games.They are 2-6 away dogs.Rompill +14 seems like a lot but I spent 10 minuts capping the game and got more confused.URI is in a tailspin.Maybe Baron wins big here to get ready for A-10 tourney.I'll pass on this game. GL

thanks Scott anyway.That's unreal.Freak'in NY times.I might have my son try to scan it on the computer.I have the article.
Thanks.It's such a great article.Hits home.I feel he stole everything from me about todays high school,college and pro game.
And of course its the Big "O". The greatest player ever.sorry MJ followers..I hated the Royals and No 14 but Oscar was "god".
I used to get "Sports Magasine" with there 8 colored pictures and cut them out.My room had Oscar all over it.And of course my Phillies,Richie Allen,Callison,Bunning,etc.A few Giants like YA,Homer Jones.
But the Big 'O" was king.I'm sure most of you young ones out there don't know wtf I'm talking about but there are enough of you old farts that did the same thing

Agree with you on Oscar. Think he had career triple-double #s

 

[Rebel21]

AUGUR's 2 unit bets are money. i've been followin him since he started posting this year. Not many people view his posts and they should because his 2 unit bets are very solid.

 

[DJTranks]

BC $$! Nice!

[The Big Tease]

2-0. Nice job. Followed you on fairfield, was gonna take rider until i read your post. Don't post often but wanted to say thank you to you box. I have been coat tailing you for a couple years, whether it was over at talksport or here. Thanks to everyone else in here... I'm a poor college student and my bankroll went from 400 - 1400 in one weekend. Never knew breaking a foot and having this much time on my hands would be so profitable...
