XU -7 over Marq **
spent so much time on this game...think Blue and Macura and co take care of Marq... Marq has 3 gds that are the best in he nation in scoring..think XU defense contains them and wins the inside game...XU has some size with Kanter,Gates,Jones and O"mara..these guys are all 6'8,6'9 and 6'10...a lot of depth...and Blue is Blue...slow down Howard and Rowley....since Howard went on a big tear teams have slowed him down to 6,16,31,17 and 11...before that he had 52 and 37...XU at home,plays great defense..think they win by +10..game could go over..not sure of over-under...
URI -14.5 over Fordham ****
The best A-10 team vs the worst...Rams can't score...no offense...they just lost to St Joes 68-46...they score a few games under 50 pts...there defense is avg but when you can't put any points on the board there is a reason why you are 1-6 in the A-10 and 6-13 overall...URI...loaded...just made the top 25...7-0 in conf...everyone can score. Mathews looks like he's back 100%...think they win by +20 on the road...Rams can't rebound either..if Fordham brought its A game tonite and URI brought its C+ game... URI wins by 15..just covers...but don't think that will happen...
UMass +7 over LaSalle **
Amazing with 2 outstanding players Pookie and BJ Lasalle still sucks...Umass did beat them a few weeks ago in OT 86-79..but Umass lost its last 2 games by 22 and 19 pts...like Pipkins.at 5'11 this kid is tough to stop...not sure if Hollaway is playing...he could be practicing with the Patriots around the block since he is 6'8 300...
G-Town -3.5 over DePaul **
Govan last 2 games hasn't had a double-double..tonite he gets it..Hoyas coming off a nice OT win...DP on the road will have trouble... plus DP's top rebounder and solid scorer might not play Maric...not sure of status but if he's out throwng another box* or 2 on the Hoyas...have to wait...
Nevada -4.5 over Wyoming ***
Love Nev tonite...have won 7 in a row..Caleb Martin is a force..his brother Cody is not to bad..but Caroline can score..Wolf pack avg 81 pts a game..FG % is 47,and they can hit the 3...they play tough defense and can rebound,and don't turn the ball over,..playing at Wyo who scores 76 a game but gives up 76 a game..last in offense in the MW and can't rebound...Wolf Pack win and cover by +10...
ETenn -10 over Mercer **
ET is only 6 weeks from their conf tourney..they want the NCAA's to start looking..
South Dakota St +3 over South Dakota ***
Its the Jackrabbits vs the Coyotes..state rivals,conf rivals...etc...both teams are good with 17 wins,,,but only one team has Daum..and that is SD St....I play SD St every game..sometimes I don't post it but I play them and Nevada...both have been good for me ats...
I am originally from the Bronx...the Bronx zoo is one block from my house.. I was born in Fordham Hospital..its now a parking lot...but even I know being a city boy Coyotes can't catch a Jackrabbit..you can google it...and when the jackrabbits have a 6'9,250 pound inside-outside scorer there ain't no coyotes there to stop him...last yr SD beat SD St by 2 at home...but then SD St won all there next ganes ,won the conf and went to the big dance.. and jackrabbits do have good memories... beep beep...think thats a roadrunner
Niagara -3 over Manhattan **
Purple wins 5 straight and then get blown out by Fairfield in a defensive battle 104-85...MC loses to Canisius last week but has now won 3 of last 4...they just beat Peter 68-57...but Peter has no offense...tough game to capp..taking the Purple because they have 2 big time scorers in Dukes and Scott..and are at home...
BC +7 over Cuse **
Think BC can keep this close...
yest 6-5 +4 *'s
Did win with Rider -1 but when I posted it was -2.5.....I will still take the loss because I posted it but that was a nice win they squeaked out
a lot of games..today Gl..
