There are 257 teams that we can play on.I think Sagrin has 330 total teams.But the Hartfords,Wagners,Stoney Brooks,etc aren't on Dave Cokin,Scott Spreitzer or Chip Chirimbus services.So we don't see them until one of them get seeded 16th and meet Duke.
But here are the Dave Lettermans Bottom 25 teams according to the spread. ATS as we all know.
Today we have a big matchup with Texas Tech -4 over Ohio St.Knight returning to B-10 country.That should be a blowout.Knight's defense,Emitt,better athletes,rebounding,etc,etc.
TT is 11-2.But if you cashed in on TT then you went against them.They are 3-7-1 ats and ranked 242nd.All those games vs the TCU's,Smoo's,UTEP's and NMexico were all losses.The lines were 9,12,17 and 17.They won them all but never covered.
So today many of us will play "boxes" on TT to beat Ohio St.Myself included.In breaking down the handicapp on paper I have TT at -6 or -7.So -4 looks good to me.We all know about Ohio St.They are struggling but are 8-4 overall..but are 2-9 ats and 2-6 ats at home.They rank as the 2nd worst team coming in at 256th out of 257.

And now to open the envelope on who is the worst team of the bottom 25....Pepperdine at 3-10 coming in at 257th place.And I know I played those bastards once or twice and I assure you it wasn't one of there 3 wins.

Anyway,not sure if anyone finds this intresting or not but I said it before.Many of the big name schools get added pts.I know everyone knows this but get caught so many times myself.Take a quick glance at some of the bottom 25.
From the bottom to the top
Minny,TCU,Zona St,USC,So Miss[who I like today over New orleans] XU,Kansas,Mich St,Washington and Arizona.
Zona and Kansas could be in the final four.But rank 233 and 240.
Well bored you all enough...just thought I'd paste these bottom 25..I know ats is only a part of capping.And like I said last time one of my best friends who knows his hoops never uses them. I do though...

Box, do you have any opinion on Org.St. at USC. Oergon State has played tough in most of their games , only one loss by double digits. On the other hand USC has only one win by more that 10. I'm really liking Oregon State and the points. Appreciate your comments.

boilermaker, I'm very weak in the Pac-10. Paul Graham lyr's Wash St coach went to North Texas with me.I followed them and capped them a lot.But he got fired.
I do WAC and Big West but try to stay away from Pac-10
But I did notice that in the bottom 25 there are 5 PAC 10 teams in there.

Ohio St -2.5..line just dropped a pt????
Small play here.
Think TT is a little quicker then OSU.TT runs that motion offense that I think Ohio will have problems.Emmitt is the best player out there.Tomaszek looks like a B-10 player.Jackson is tough.This team's top 4 scorers all avg at least 2 assits a game.
Knight will not give OSU offense good looks to the basket.Stockman is there best player.TT will put some greyhounds on him.Rads and Dials could give the smaller Raiders matchup problems.But I'll go with the quicker and better defensive team and take Tech

Gonna pass on New orleans-So Miss
Victor Brown's play for naw leans scares me.Was leaning on So Miss due to NO playing 4 games in the past 8 days.Two of them were road games at So Fl and Auburn.
One play ...Texas tech*** 3 boxes GL

Steve,didn't play Wyoming but saw they were winning big and said to myself"I should of played them". Kinda like my George Washington collaspe last week.
GL today..
