UC-Irvine ML

[kegray1]

Gonna take a wild shot at UC-Irv.(+13) and the ML over the Trojans.

Looking at USC from last year.
They lost top scorer in Farmer,but return rest.
They did not win a single game last season by more than 12 points.NOT A SINGLE ONE!

This is USC first game while Irvine pounded a chump by 30+.

Look at some of USC's games last year.Most teams were similar to what Irvine will put on the floor.

11/21 at Western Michigan L 83-65
11/30 CS-Northridge W 75-69
12/3 UNLV L 92-83
12/6 at St. Mary's (CA) W 84-83
12/9 Fullerton State W 96-90
12/13 at BYU L 85-61
12/19 at Fresno State W 65-62
12/22 Cal Poly L 93-78
12/28 Lafayette W 81-59

They lost at home by 15 to Cal Poly for gods sake.
Cal Poly was 11-16 last season.

That is just my 2 cents on this matchup.
Any opinions would be appreciated.

when i first looked at the games, irvine was really tempting. ultimately, i decided to leave em out because i didnt want to play too many games on a monday. like you said, usc has been vulnerable to the inexplicable upset. irvine isnt all that bad. another thing i like about this game: even though its early and its not a lookahead in the truest sense, usc does have a game with north carolina on deck. their play could reflect that they think the season starts with that game, not this one. we'll see.

Irvine plays at USC and At UCLA this week.

UC-Irv. may have the lead in the Pac-10 by the end of the week.

UC Irvine off to a solid start up 19-15 with 9 to go til half.
The ML at 8-1 would be sweet.
