Tuesday hoops

[Box and one]

Rutgers -11 over Fordham ***
Rams can't score or shoot 3's ranking them in the 350's in both..also can't shoot FT's. also cannot rebound..their one super gd Chatouny who leads the nation in steals is there top rebounder...Taveras has done a good job scoring and help from Sianna inside is needed...but this team sucks..they did play well vs harvard and lost by a few..but they just struggled with ST Fran NY...Rutgers didn't leave NJ for the 1st 2 months..playing home games vs cupcakes..they just got beat by Mich St at home by 10..they just struggled with powerhouse NJ Tech and won by 10..
Rutgers does play good defense...but like Fordham they can't shoot,score ,hit 3's etc..there being so ranked high in some defensive stats is because they beat up CCNY,Coppin,Bryant,etc...but they do have a sold gd in Sanders and their top player fd Freeman...Baker at the point has 42 assists..inside they have undersized Omoru and their most talented offensive player Williams is coming off the bench...they are playing at the RAC,,hate giving Rutgers double digits since they couldn't even cover that vs NJ Tech but they have some talent...defense should shut down Rams and think Sanders and Foreman are way to much..think Rutgers win this by +15 points..

South Dak St -11 over North Dak ***
Love the name Jackrabbits but love the Baum kid...

Seton Hall -20.5 over St Peter **
Love Peter..coach,defense,blue collar,etc... not a single Peter player was ever recruited by the Hall...but that fact is lost the 2 W's to graduation,..they can't score or rebound...or hit 3's...top rebounders are their gds..lost to South Bama by 5,but played northwestern tight..but Lasalle who can't find its offense beat Peter by +20...and they just beat Houston Baptist by 2...the Hall is loaded...the Desi and Delgado show,rebound,scoring,etc...Powell has been on fire and their pt gd Carrington is big time..they have Nez and Mamu off the bench that are 6'8 and 6'10...Peter doesn't have the inside game to stop the Hall...and with Powell and Carrington at the gds don't think Peter can contain them..last time they played 2 yrs ago Hall won 72-46..think the same this year..

Monmouth +3 over Princeton **
Seaborn the best player on the court...Hawks keep this close

Yale +4 over iona **
Iona cannot shoot the 3's of the past..still can't play defense.. Yale is missing its top player but still hangs in..

Albany +1.5 over Memphis **
Home town play..Brown has done outstanding job at Albany...they are scared of nobody..this is there "super bowl " game"...they won 21 games last yr and return everyone...a good backcourt and a solid front court..

Texas-Michigan over 133.5 *
Was going to this game but have to baby sit grandchild...its an 8 pm start..9 eastern...tough game to capp...the line is exactly where I had it...5-6 points...mich coming from big win over UCLA... Texas is missing top scorer in Jones..both teams can't shoot Ft's....Texas has Mamba at 7'2...but Osetkowski is their best player...Mich cannot rebound...will player the over...think both teams play loose..Texas gets a lot of offensive rebounds..think its a close game..hopefully Texas hits some 3's .. they miss so many uncontested 3's...

3-1 +2*'s on Sunday
overall
67-48+56*'s

Heath..how was that Zona St game...tell us about it...what a great game..

[Musca]

Sharps

Sharps

Sharps rode the total up to 133 and then hit the under hard at 133... SO you have the big guys on both sides of the total.

Box....the ASU game in Kansas was nuts! Going down 15-2 to start the game I was having flashbacks to the Purdue game last year I went to in NYC at the Garden. We flew cross country for this?!?!?! Alas, the rest of the game was a treat. Got to Allen Fieldhouse about an hour before hand and walked around the lower rung which is basically a museum on the history of KU sports, pretty cool stuff. This was a bucket list place for me, a no brainer when I head about the matchup last spring.

Also want to mention how terrific the KU fans were to us, friendly as I can ever remember being a visitor. There were probably 100 total ASU fans in the stands and easy to identify as the maroon/gold was easily visible mixed in with the blue/red. Hearing the haunting "rock chalk jayhawk" was something I won't soon forget. Hearing ASU chants at the end of the game as the Kansas faithful shuffled out in silence was even sweeter though :00hour:00hour:00hour:00hour

This is funny......for 35 years I've heard that basketball is irrelevant and dominating in football is what matters (dominating who, I still don't know).

Been hoping for asu to be decent for a long time (so the road trips to az were competitive at bith sites) they have a nice team this year shooting out of their minds so far but still a donut team with little in the middle.

Damn..I got that line at its top...to late...now I can cheer for both teams...
Hersch sounds like a great time...ASU is for real..like I said I love those 2 gds...and the 3rd one scored 21 pts..think they got 65 pts from their gds..

72 points total from Evans, Holder, and Martin. Justice was ice cold but had some big rebounds down the stretch and found other ways to contribute. Hoping they'll have 6'7" Kimani Lawrence back for conference play, and maybe get Mickey Mitchell at 6'8" more than the 6 mins he played on Sunday to balance out the little guys. Been on board for some really bad teams since I stepped foot on campus, makes it all the more gratifying to see this all unfold. Hope they can keep it up.
