Tuesday NCAA Card

[metaxy6]

What's everyone seeing?

Kicking around:
Iona -2
BGU pk, but only if starting F Parnell Smith is out (ankle) for Buffalo.

Iona has damn good veteran guard play; has the frontcourt edge; and is more experienced top to bottom - don't know if a recently gritty Siena team can hold home court here.

Basically steering clear of the big games, but maybe someone can give me a good reason to hit an undersized Kentucky team.

That's just the early looks - let's find a way to smoke this card.

Today's Ticket
------------------------------
Iona -2 : 1 unit
S. Illinois -3.5 : 1 unit
Indiana +2 : 1 unit ...Havent pulled the trigger yet on this hoping the spread increases.

I was just looking at it and Iowa is undeafeted so far at home. They beat both #7 Kentucky and #6 Illinois. I might have to go with Iowa.

Comments please.

Friz - that Iowa pick looks pretty good but think about the Virginia game. They're at home and have been playin' really well. I think I'm gonna go with you with Iowa -2 but UVA looks like a steal at -2.5

[Frizzle02]

Hungry u r gay.

[metaxy6]

What's wrong w/ Hungry? It's good to get this forum going.

Buffalo's leading scorer Calvin Cage (18 ppg) and starting forward P. Smith (11.1 ppg/4.5 rpg) are both questionable for tonight's game. Even one out puts this team in trouble.
They're not playing well their last 4 games and just lost to CMU at home.
BGU, on the other hand, is picking up after a tough conference start. They've won 5 of last 8 and are two tough losses from 5-1 in conf.
They've got senior guard Steven Wright back and he's been tearing it.


I also like Iowa, mainly for their inside play here. Looking for them to bounce back from big loss to MSU. Just hope that IU doesn't get hot shooting, esp from 3.

Need a closer look at UVA game and Iona.
The SIU game is driving me nuts, cause I think Creighton can beat them, but SIU can play some serious defense when they feel like it.

Current action:
BGU +1 (2 u)
Iowa -2 (1 u)

frizz i took this pic of myself with you in mind

Another busy day at work today.. what the hell is that all about.. anyways...

Here are my leans so far
Georgetown +2
Kentucky -3.5
S. Illi -2
Indiana +3
Ohio -3

back with my actual bets in a bit.

[Grand_MasterB]

ok here are my final plays

Georgetown +2: 1.5 units waitin on this though because i think it goes to 2.5
Kentucky -3.5: 1.5 units
Indiana +3: 1 unit

I like the southern Illinois game but im stayin away from it.. i would feel better if it was -2.

[metaxy6]

Looks like we're not coming to much consensus on tonight's card.

I would still love for someone to give me a reason to bet Kentucky, besides that they're facing a young Auburn team.

GL on Ohio, B. I can't get with it, as Akron looks like the real deal. They've got a deep team and they're leading conf. in some key categories.

Siena at home in need of a game is the main reason I can't pull the trigger on Iona.

[Hungryman316]

aight this is what i'm goin with for sure tonight:

Iowa -2
UVA -2.5
Kentucky-4.5 too bad I didn't bet this earlier to get the closer spread

[metaxy6]

GL all.
Finally convinced myself and added:
Kentucky -4 (bought 1/2) 1.5 u

Think that they might be finding a good game to get in stride getting used to having Morris back. Hoping also that Sims goes off.

<<edit>> added Akron ML 1 u
and NBA Philly -5 1/2 1 u
Philly/Sac under 201 1 u

[Grand_MasterB]

what the hell is georgetown doing!! up by 4 with 2 seconds left they fould while ND shoots a 3 and they send it to OT!! im going to be pissed if i lose this game.

atleast kentucky was an easy cover

metaxy: i stayed away from ohio.. couldnt get it where i wanted ... but it looks like it will be close

[Grand_MasterB]

Thank god GU covered... now I just need indiana for a perfect night!

Glad i stayed away from ohio.. i liked it at 3 but not at 4... they ended up winning by 3... would have only pushed/lost

[kling]

I just picked 2 games tonight:

Gtown +1.5
Buffalo -1
Brings me up to 14-6-1 YTD.

[metaxy6]

I got silly and took the Akron ML looking to score. Could have used those points.
G-town - wtf? All's well that ends well for yall.
Thanks for talking me into Kentucky, fellas - lol.

Oh, and nice pick on Buffalo Kling. They obviously brought it tonight.

[Frizzle02]

Hell Yeah baby! My first 3-3 night

Iona rocked the spread
S. Illinois rocked the spread
Iowa and Indiana put up enough to go over 129!

I hope this continues i like winning!

YTD 11-11-1 : -1.5 units

[Grand_MasterB]

Well went 2 out of 3 tonight.. really thought IU would get it done.. oh well.. cant be unhappy with a +2 unit night

GU +1.5 units
Kentucky +1.5 units
IU -1 unit

Makes my NCAA BB YTD look like...
20-15
+9.5 units


Frizzle congrats on your perfect night... we got ACC wednesday tonight! lets get you out of the red!

Kling you gotta start posting how many units you are throwin down on games. A 14-6-1 record is great but we want to know how much you are puttin on every game. its very possible to have a losing record but be making money or have a winning record but be loosing money. We need to see how much you like every game so we can look into them more and get propper discussion going.. just better for the forum.. but hope your streak continues!
