(More to come, I'll be back before the rest of the games start to cap a little bit)

[TPowell]

adding a ML Parlay (Northeastern and Houston ML)

[TPowell]

won my first 2 unit play of the year and need the Houston ML to complete my ML Parlay. Houston is up 15 at the half so I just need them to play an even second half for that bet. Still not totally into Duke -15.5 for the first half but I think they really throttled Presbyterian and then let their foot off the gas quick.

[TPowell]

another winner with Houston dominating tonight. Thats 7-1 so far this year and 3-0 today with 1 game left to come.

[MexicanStallion]

Great plays today. I followed todays picks, so thanks for posting. I appreciate it.

[sportsguy04]

tpowell what you think about Georgia Southern covering 28 points? The blue hose lost by 31 last night and then got murdered today by houston. I think Georgia Southern covers 28 points especially since they won last night.

[TPowell]

no problem I know 15 points sounds like a lot in that Duke game, but Duke had Presbyterian down 20+ points at half last night and its safe to say that they'll take Georgia Southern a little more seriously tonight. I like the first half bet because I'm pretty sure if Duke gets up big in the first half like I'm pretty sure they will, Coach K will call off the dogs like he did last night.

I think GA Southern probably gets the back door cover/2nd half cover but I didnt really feel strong enough to play it.

[SiliconToad]

Hey TPowell...you on Duke -9.5 2H? Probably too risky I would imagine.

[TPowell]

naw I just woke up and saw the first half cashed lol, BOL to anybody on it though

[TPowell]

hmm tough games out there tommorow with 2 of them being lined as of now

Prairie View A&M @ UCLA (-34.5)
Weber State @ Miami OH (-13)

[ZBOIZ]

I'm going real hard on UCLA -35!!!!

I love that play also

[TPowell]

does UCLA have enough firepower to win that big early in the year though? I'm wasted so I'll check out the lines this morning when I get up since the first game doesn't start until 5:00 Central. I like Miami (OH) but I'm not sure if they could beat me and you by 13 points, they're more of a grind it out type of team (only lost to Louisville by 1 last year), but they have this really good white kid (Michael something). Alright I'm out, damn it I cant remember that kid's last name but he was their leading scorer last year and he's a stud IMO

[bmw530i]

T Pow...very nice so early on....
I am very impressed, I knew you were gonna be great after I saw your Ricky P. avatar about a month ago!\
Out of Umass, Ucla, or Michigan which 1 would you lean on most?

[TPowell]

actually I think my play of the day will be IUPUI (-5) 1H. They seem to be a half way competent team and should put a nice beatdown on Michigan Tech, especially in the first half when they're actually playing their best players

[bmw530i]

Wow Tpow I had them yest. at +7...they went 0-10 in the 1st half on 3's...but the game was close at the half....
If they can just be just decent behind the 3 line....very nice play I will take it...small since its so early...nice TPow.

[TPowell]

11/12/2008

1 unit plays

IUPUI (-5) 1H
Southern Illinois/UMass UNDER 135
Notheastern/Michigan OVER 59 (1H)
UMass (+5)
UCLA (-19) 1H
IUPUI ML and Michigan ML (-125)

note to self: DONT PLAY FIRST HALF TOTALS!

[losturmarbles]

nice picks yesterday tpowell


and gl tonight

[bmw530i]

Tpow...we were up by as many as 15...fukkkk
ahh take the PUSH ....33-28...

[TPowell]

jesus christ, I can't believe those ****ers lost the lead like that!

[bmw530i]

hahahaha...T Pow....this season is gonna be alot of fun...
I have been studying alot.....I had a few of the guys that bet with me take IUPUI 1st half and they have UCLA 1st half...
I told them I can see the greatness in this guy TPOW...
I give credit where it is due.....

[TPowell]

should have bet the full game I guess but I really thought IUPUI would get up double digits and run away. I'm on UCLA 1st half pretty small too. Still need IUPUI to get the win to keep my ML parlay going

[TPowell]

sweet jesus, Michigan and Northeastern can't score for shit! 14-12 with 8 minutes left in the 1st half

[sportsguy04]

UMASS looking good early.

[TPowell]

yeah too good lol, idk why I took the under for the game. I thought 135 would be plenty of points, but it seems like Southern Illinois isn't playing the defense they've played in years past

[TPowell]

adding Michigan (-2) 2H


5 Northeastern players have 2 fouls and Manny Harris hasnt got untracked yet (just 1 basket)

[SiliconToad]

I"m on UCLA (-16.5) 2H. Let's see what happens.

[bmw530i]

T Pow.....another PUSH......holy shit..

[TPowell]

11/13/08

1 unit plays

UCLA (-8) 1H
UCLA/Miami OVER 125
Weber State (-6.5) 1H



tough games to cap today IMO but I like the over 125 in the UCLA/MIAMI game because of a couple of reasons.

1- Michael Bramos is a stud, he shot 2-13 yesterday and I'm sure he'll shoot the ball better today.

2- UCLA WON'T turn the ball over 20+ times today against a much better Miami team.

3- Both teams shot the basketball pretty well and covered today's total in their games last night.

[Dbldown11]

I took Weber St -11 tonight...they impressed me last night, and their opponent is shit...hopefully it works out as UMASS laying an egg in the 2nd half last night killed me.

I was too upset though cause maybe my Salukis will be better than I thought this year!

[TPowell]

jesus that pissed me off last night, between that and IUPUI screwing me on my first half bet by getting their lead cut 10 points in like 5 minutes

[bmw530i]

TPow...I got Ucla 1st half -8
