YTD 127-102

The quarterfinals are being played at the home floor of the higher seed. With that in mind I think that the lines are a bit inflated on the home sides. It's all dogs for me.

Loy Chic +11'
UIC +12'
Detroit +2
Youngstown +9

Have you looked at any history on how the road dogs do in this conf tourney?

Hawk, You read my mind. I favor the unders in 3 of the 4 but the numbers are pretty close. If the detroit game stays as close as the line suggests it will there shoudn't be a late foul fest. The one I would not touch is the YSU/GB game.



Ools:

Yes I did go back two years and if memory serves correct in 07/08 the dogs won one outright and may have covered two games.

Last year the first round dogs covered two of the four and the two ATS losses were by 2 and 2' points
The game I worry about is Youngstown, they need to get off to a decent start or they may be in trouble. GB has won 20 games and must be respected.

UIC has improved over the last couple of weeks and should hang around. They have covered 5 of the last 6 vs the panthers and have played much better the last few games.

Cleve St is not nearly the team they were last year and Loy Chicago played them very tough this year.

The best game is the Det/ Valpo game. The Titans seem to have recovered from their slump and finished the season well with 3 straight wins 2 of which were on the road. I have seen both of these teams in person and Detroit has much more talent than Valpo. The Titans biggest problem is turnovers, if they take care of the ball they should win.

Add :

Eastern Illinois -1

I see that Hawk, Thunder and LDB are on this one so I studied it pretty hard and I think that the guys are right. I'll hop aboard as well.

3rd road game in a row for Detroit and Valpo more rested and one more day to prepare at home. Agree with what you said about taking care of ball but that is a big if! Give me the rested home team with the better coach. Look forward to your picks throughout , GL

I must say that those are good points and I have a lot of respect for Homer. We'll see how it plays out and maybe make an adjustment or two at the half.

Best of luck JT

Well, the horizon dogs go 2-2 but I bought back the Youngstown play at the half. The OVC plays went 2-0with Tenn Texh winning outright as a big dog.

5-2 tonight, I'll take it.

YTD 132 - 104
