Yeah I know Council has been out since 11/15 so not concerned about that. Cotton is a bit of a loss but they played most of last game without him and adjusted ok.
No problem man. More information the better. GL as well

I do like em for game also, but just think 1st half is a stronger play looking at numbers I have. Hopefully they come out with some energy like they dId against Miss. STate Saturday.

URI wins it outright tonight. Sure, they suck. But look at all of their games. All have been very close.

Also someone asked what my record was other day and I finally got time to go back through my 10 NCAA BB threads I started this year. (First one was Butler +4 & ML +175 on 11/19) My posted plays are 99-74-6 +30.45x. First 5 days of December have been good as I am 53-36-3 +25.45 to start.

As a fan and an annual attendee of this game, you're 1rst half wager is the smartest way to back the Friars IMO. With the current injuries they're down to I believe 5 or 6 scholarship players and only a couple of other walk ons. With the thin bench and long minutes logged by the starters, we could conceivably see the Friars start to fade late in the 2nd half. These games are a very intense rivalry in nature, and despite whatever edge each team shows year to year, they are for the most part very close games. I don't see this years version being any different. This year will be the first year I won't have a wager on this game, other than with the guys I'm attending the game with. Too close to call, but again 1rst half Friars - 2 1/2 is probably the best way to go. Hope you don't lose it by the hook.

Yeah Friar are limited with there bench so that could be a problem down the stretch. That's part of reason for 1st half vs game. Glad to see a local likes the play. Have fun at the game and root em on first half! Lol Line has moved to -3.5 now so looks like I least got the best # available.

Actually, the line has moved to the original Providence -4 at the half, -6.5 for the game. One of my books took the line away completely. Wonder if one of the starters is back in.... Not sure why it's so schizophrenic.
Took the full game at -4.5. Wishing I'd taken the half when it was -2.5.

Might be that freshman Dunn is going to play. Maybe Cotton as well. Nothing I have seen for sure though

i live in providence and know these teams well.... cotton as of 12:30 is still a game time decision. however, even if he does play how effective can he be?! he sat out in puerto rico for a game w an ankle injury. now a knee injury. didnt practice this week. they were up 26 at home to miss st and let them get w/ in 6 points w/o cotton!!! (prov-12 and won by 10...) the will get fatigued at the end and w/ bobby hurley's first rival game i think they keep it very close. the lines all over the place. not sure why but you heard it here first, cotton will be ineffective even if he does play and even though URI hasnt impressed me yet, an in-state rival getn 6/6.5 I LOVE URI!!!!
