Wednesday College Ball

[Mr. Poon]

YTD record: 23-14 for +14.7 units

Ohio St. -7 for 2 units - both teams playing good defense, but Ohio St. is much better in taking care of the ball. FSU averaging 18 turnovers per game is a big concern. This will also be their 5th game in 8 days, all away from home. Look for OSU to pull away in the second half.

Dayton -3.5 for 2 units - based on past games in this series, low scoring game is probable. Would normally make a home dog very appealing but the talent difference is just too much here and Dayton handles Miami easily.

Ga Tech -4.5 for 3 units - the size and advantage of Ga Tech's front court is going to be too much for Siena.

Didn't Dayton struggle with Towson in their last game. Thats not a good sign. Towson is awful.

Towson is bad, but they shot really well (52%) from behind the arc to stay in that game against Dayton. The same bad Towson squad beat Miami (oh) to start out the season for their only win. Miami had 20 TO's in that game.

I also subscribe to kcwolf's theory to not overreact positively or negatively to a team's last played game. It definitely needs to be taken into consideration but it shouldn't be the sole factor in a play or not.

I was actually at this game.... LOL.... I was
visiting family in Dayton and My uncle got us
Tickets... Mr Poon is right.... Towson shot lights
out from downtown for the whole 1st half and
start of 2nd... Dayton got down 17 pts early
2nd half and still won by 5...Towson didnt really
do anything but shoot good from 3 and when
that stopped the Flyers spanked them rest of
2nd half...

Good luck and kick ass
