Make it or Break it in 2009, My Play of the Day $eason Thread

Week 10

Sunday's Play for this final NCAAB week

Denver -3.5 vs North Texas
Denver is one of the hottest team in the sunbelt conference. Playing in Denver is also one of the hardest place to win at. Denver will be looking for redemption in this game after blowing a 39-22 halftime lead in UNT, before losing 62-69.

Adding

Northern Colorado -5 vs Montana State
Montana sucks on the road.

[frostno98]

Adding

Maryland +4 at NC State
Must win for the Terps to better their case for a NCAA berth. Liking with the desperate team here.

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 2-1

Monday Play

Notre Dame -2.5 vs Villanova
Riding with the desperate Fighting Irish again. It's now or never for Notre Dame to make a solid case for the NCAA tournament berth. If Luke Harangody can have a decent game here, Notre Dame will win easily. He got hot too late in the UCONN game or they could of won that too!

Adding

Baylor vs Texas 146.5 Over

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 2-3

Pathetic day yesterday, going 0-2. Typical ESPN televised game BS. I just don't do good on games that are on TV for some reason. Looking to respond with 2-3 winners today.


Cincinatti -2.5 at South Florida

Valparaiso +9.5 at WrightState
Val will give Wrightstate all they can handle today after losing to them twice already this season.

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 2-5

On a current 4 game skid right now. Final week of the regular basketball season is unusually unpredictable. Adding a couple of early game to end this losing skid.


Pittsburgh -10 vs Marquette
Marquette playing two tough team on the road in a row is going to be too much for them too handle, especially one can play great D and score from anywhere on the floor at anytime. All Pittsburgh needs to do is show up and play their game. They are not the team that needs things to happen to cover this game, like Marquette who will rely heavily on the 3's. If Marquette can't shoot 3's, this will be an easy cover the other way.


BYU -8.5 at Wyoming
BYU needs to solidfy it's NCAA chances with a big win over Wyoming. Wyoming on the other hand has not look impressive on the road, by squeaking pass Colorado State and Airforce by a margin of 3 points each. BYU destroyed CSU by 26 points and Airforce by 19 points, both games on the road. Wyoming will not be able to keep up with BYU highscoring style offense in this game.

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 4-5

Thursday Plays

Indiana State +4 at Drake
Drake is a struggling team that has gone 3-7, while Indiana State has gone 6-4 in their last 10 games.

Providence +10.5 at Villanova
Both teams need this win. Providence to keep their playoff hopes alive, while Villanova to attain a 2nd round conference tournament seeding. Providence has many more scoring options than Notre Dame who rely too much Harangody and Ayers. Doing that made them predictable and Villanova was eventually able to close the gap on those players. Providence has 5 starters are capable of scoring double digits at anytime, which will make Villanova defensive plans tougher. This should make them competitive until the end.

[frostno98]

final add

UCLA -18 vs Oregonstate
Time for UCLA to show their March madness PAC-10 dominance against a less talented Beaver team.

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 6-6

Friday's early plays


James Madison -3 vs William Mary

Loyola Maryland +1 vs Canisius

[frostno98]

Adding

Tennessee Martin -4 at Moreheadstate
This is like a home game for Tenn-Martin since the Ohio Valley conference tourney is being held in Nashville. Moreheadstate has already lost 4 straight road games, and will continue to struggle on the road against division leader Tenn-Martin.

[frostno98]

Week 10 record 7-8

Saturday's play will be my final posted plays on this thread. After 10 weeks of capping college Basketball, I'd have to say this season has been a success, with 17 games over .500. The NCAAB conference tournament has been insanely unpredictable the last couple day, including many unexpected dogs winning in blowout fashion on Friday. The goal for Saturday is to get 7-10 wins, that how many plays I will be putting out through the day starting with these two.


Miami Florida -8 vs NC STATE'
Miami needs this game badly. The hurricane has a game breaking point guard in Jack McClintock and a more talented squad, is why they will beat down a NC state team who's doesn't really have anything to play for as a visitor.


Pittsburgh -3.5 vs UCONN
Eventhough Hashim Thabeet didn't play much the last game due to fouls, I still think Pitts is a far greater team than UCONN because of the absence of Jerome Dyson. Pittsburgh is a dominating beast at home, and this is where Lavance Field takes his game to another level. I think Pittsburgh is the best team in College this year, and this is why they should cover today's pointspread

[frostno98]

Adding

Marquette -6 vs Syracuse
Syracuse is not good against the elite teams on the road, and will have a difficult day against a Marquette team happy to be home.

Iowa State -4 vs Texas Tech
Tech is 0-12 on the road, and I see them finish the regular season win less as a visitor.

[frostno98]

adding Lunch time plays

Oklahoma State +9 at Oklahoma
The Cowboys has to get this win to build up an at large tourney berth. I don't think they can win but will be playing this one with everything they got, and will make the game interesting.


Wyoming +5 vs New Mexico

[frostno98]

Saturday's summary

So far today 3-2-1. Could of easily been 5-1, had Texas Tech missed the 3 in the end at Iowastate and Miami-Florida got the rebound off a missed 3 in the waning seconds. A couple of bad breaks, but not due to bad handicapping. Adding two more plays within the hour.

[frostno98]

Adding Ivy League special

Yale -5 vs Harvard
Yale is good at home, while Harvard is bad on the road including a 2 points loss to the Ivy League worst team in Brown yesterday.

Columbia -3 vs Pennsylvania
Penn will be without should starting scorer Tyler Bernardidi and shorthanded. Columbia should wrap up this Ivy league season with a going away dominating home win.

Adding Final plays for the night

Going to head out early today. Got a Kid's b-day partying waiting. Going to enjoy the rest of the day eating some fresh grilled Barbe Q chicken, drinking a few beer, and taking some shots. Gorgeous spring sunny day today and a great time to be out. Hopefully the rest of my picks comes through too.



Duquesne +6 at Dayton
Dayton might play tight in this game because winning this will assured them a NCAA tourney bid. Duquesne has played every A10 team well, including a win against Xavier. The pressure will on Dayton, while Duquesne will be playing confident and loose on the road.

Northern Colorado +4.5 at Idaho State

BYU -20.5 at Airforce
Don't see Airforce scoring consistently enough against this high octane Cougar's offense

UNLV +4.5 at San Diego State

Wow, what an ugly finish in Week 10. Finish 10-16-1, thanks to a horrific saturday ended going 3-7-1 for the day. This is just unbelievable and mindbloggling. After 9 weeks of solid capping. Final season record will finish at 109-97-7, which will put me back into the amateurish category. Time to switch to the the tournament thread now.
