Tuesday College Ball

[Mr. Poon]

YTD Record: 108-76 for +43.6 units


Dayton -5 for 1 unit

K-State/Baylor Under 149 for 2 units

N. Carolina -1 for 2 units

WVU/DePaul Over 122.5 for 8 units ? Mac Koshwal is going to play for DePaul tonight and that considerably helps their scoring ability. Without them they have had absolutely little inside presence. They have relied heavily on Will Walker and other guards to create from the outside for the offense. Issue is that while Walker can do that, no one else (perhaps Stovall) is relatively capable. With Koshwal back in, expect DePaul to be more balanced offensively, lot of inside/out going on and the DePaul guards will benefit from WVU?s D having to pay a decent amount of attention to Koshwal. Also game should be closer and WVU will be pushing the tempo throughout and won?t have the benefit of taking the air out of the ball in the second half with a huge lead.

DePaul +17 for 3 units ? don?t expect a DePaul upset, but there is value getting this many points and DePaul?s best player back in the lineup.

GL guys

8 unit play?

Best of luck Poon. May put a couple green backs on it myself.

:mj06:

 

[Mr. Poon]

Yeah, its a bigger play. I've hit and missed big plays this season, so who knows with this one, but I believe the pace will be enough to have this one in the 130's.

 

[bjfinste]

Are you sure Koshwal is playing?

 

[ThrowinPicks]

GL with the big play. I would make sure Depaul shoots at least above 43% from the field and above 70% from the stripe before calling this one in.

 

[Theboundbook]

Good luck today! Especially on the biggy!

 

[Mr. Poon]

Are you sure Koshwal is playing?

I realize he isn't listed as playing in any media outlet and from DePaul's website, they list him on the 'bench' in their game notes. I got the information that he is playing from a source close to the team. This is the same source that told me prior to the Providence game that he was 'out' for that game. The DePaul website had him as a projected starter in their game notes for that contest.

I won't be at the game tonight, but will try to find out from someone there that is there if he is suited up for warm-ups (hasn't been the last 4 games), and will try to post that info.

[50centt]

both teams didnt show up for this second half i see shit..

 

[thadchr]

Yea... fuck man. I was showering at half too or else I probably would have tried to middle such a big play.

 

[50centt]

depaul suck big time they score 18 in the whole 2nd half

 

[Mr. Poon]

my apologies guys, that 2nd half was brutal. First it was delayed about 20 minutes due to a clock malfunction and both teams come out cold. Then there was a part in the 2nd where for 2.5 minutes there were nothing but empty posessions because of offensive fouls, meaning no FT's. Uggghhh.

pretty piss poor night, sorry for all those that tailed.

 

[fletcher]

nothing you can do about 2nd half, it was a 28 min delay, teams or players in any sport can't wait around that long after playing a half, way to hard on the body and also flow of a game. see it all the time in rain d's in baseball. the d word is a killer to flow of any sport. the mind plays about 65% of a game in seasoned players, you mess that up then whole game gets messed up for both teams.

 

[Mr. Poon]

fletch - completely agree man. can't cap that as they say.

 

[HiLo Kaiser]

Tough one Poon. Like Fletch said, can't do anything about delays. It is unbelievable at how much it destroys flow and every singe factor changes (mindset, body disposition, crowd, as well as the chemistry shorts out because of the long pause).

Great call on the Tar Heels! They shot lights out from outside and inside. Finally showed up huh.

Best,
Kaiser
