* been coming out on the plus side the last few days but still feel like it should be better. hit the ill-chicago spread and moneyline, but gave a few bucks back on the iupui game. gotta give valpo credit for fighting back but that game was iupui's to lose...... and they found a way to choke. fu/ckers.
=============================================
georgetown (+7.5) over boston college
* why back a team that is on an eight game losing streak heading into the big east tourney? mainly because boston college is a garbage chalk. ive always considered them a live underdog but terrible favorite. theyve never been a good FT shooting team, but that was covered up by the reliability of troy bell when he was there. nobody on this years squad really scares me. smith is a nice player, but hes barely better from the field (54%) than he is from the free throw line (a pitiful 56%). im not saying the eagles are a bad team. but this line is gonna require a fairly convincing win on a neutral floor and i just dont see it happening. georgetown doesnt throw exactly throw five mutants on the floor. theyre no prize, but theyre more than capable of staying within 3-5 points the whole way and -- if they play a clean game -- i could see them stealing this one outright. ugly dog, but thats the way i like em.
=============================================
* already grabbed these plays for thursday. no sense in waiting for the lines to move against me
(strong play) oregon (-1) over california
toledo moneyline (+105) over buffalo
rice (-1.5) over hawaii
auburn moneyline (+125) over georgia
=============================================
played these conference tournament futures
* kent state to win the mid-american (+250)
still the class of the mac. fans travel very well and the gund is almost like a 2nd home for the flashes. their side of the bracket is weak and they can all but punch their ticket to the title game in my opinion. senior leadership must be accounted for as well. haut, jakeway, and edwards wont let the flashes exit without a fight.
* oregon to win the pac-10 (+1000)
love talented but underacieving teams in the conference tourneys. ducks have more than enough talent to compete with anyone in the conference. ducks are more than capable of stringing a few days of wins together. now that stanford has lost their aura of invincibility, these teams will go in there knowing theyre beatable. ducks should have won one of the games with stanford this year anyway
* "field" (anyone but boise,nevada,utep) to win wac (+160)
i feel like the wac is up for grabs and i get rice, fresno, hawaii, and louisiana tech. not exactly scrub teams. utep aint shit away from home. boise is nothing special. i consider this bet to be "the field vs. nevada"
