i like James Madison.. like you said there coming off a heartbreaker and i think they lost one before that 2 but i could be wrong but yes they need this win and i think the come out hungry.

007Fatty · 01-28-09, 11:42 AM

Hanger · 01-28-09, 11:45 AM

Locked in JM

GreatDanes52 · 01-28-09, 11:46 AM

I really like Madison here... but whats with the RLM wits down to 1 on my book?

Tigers1230 · 01-28-09, 11:51 AM

It will go back up, that's why I hit it at 1

Hanger · 01-28-09, 12:09 PM

likewise, I am in at 1. I know the RLM made me look puzzled, but I am staying with it.

007Fatty · 01-28-09, 12:13 PM

now its pk. even.. hmm.. there must be something up.. because im sure jm should beat od. especially at home..

Smacksmiter · 01-28-09, 01:11 PM

The line movement is a problem...anyone found any information as to why this is happening??

007Fatty · 01-28-09, 01:14 PM

i dunnoo.. i think im still going to take them tho,.

Bezerk15 · 01-28-09, 01:38 PM

I live in DC and they got pummeled with snow and freezing rain overnight - students on delay for classes - only reason this could be a factor is the same reason attendance was down for the Maryland game last night - cats staying in due to the weather, thus taking away the home court advantage. Might be a reach?

I'm gonna add James Madison into my picks for the day as well. Got them at a pick em'. Seems to be a lock.

007Fatty · 01-28-09, 01:42 PM

ohh truee.. well hopefully thats not a factor.

kmarinouofm · 01-28-09, 01:48 PM

yeah does anyone know how this game dropped 2 pts in like 2 seconds?

wild willy · 01-28-09, 01:48 PM

Just took madison 1st half pick,and game pick will have to see

Smacksmiter · 01-28-09, 02:03 PM

Well..if its a trap, I'm caught in it... lol...give me some James Madison please....I hope I don't find out their leading scorer has the flu tonight..

Bezerk15 · 01-28-09, 04:53 PM

I mentioned the weather as the only possible reason for a dip...there are no injuries to speak of or anything traditional to sway a line 2 points. I said it was a reach.
JMU averages 3,330 in attendance, in an arena that holds 7,156 - it's a IAA football school - nobody cares about basketball out there. So if the weather could sway half those regular fans away MAYBE calling it a neutral site so be it...I feel the game is capped right as a PK for the public whom can only site one thing in common here and don't know anything about these teams - these are two teams that are traditionally stuck in the middle of the CAA behind the likes of Northeastern, George Mason, and VCU that garnish any national attention. JMU (5-4) and ODU (4-5)

Those 3 of the 4 Wins for ODU have all come at home to 3 teams beneath them Georgia State, Delaware, & UNC Wilmington - they beat William & Mary on their court - but so has everyone in the CAA.

JMU on the other hand has 4 losses - Home to Northeastern, @ George Mason, by 1 point at HOME to Hofstra (last game - so they might be a little pissed), and @ Towson after a 4 days off (trap game as JMU was 6 or 7 point favs after demolishing a pretty decent Belmont team at home).

Only once this season has JMU lost back to back - after a highway rivalry loss to Longwood (I know, another nothing team) by 3 on LU's court, they followed that with lost at Home by 5 points to Northeastern in which JMU was down by 17 with 15 minutes to go in the damn game...now that's some fight to crawl back into a game that was over at half!

My point - ODU is not even in the same solar system as Northeastern.

Two teams, similar records, same conference - Home Team coming off a one point loss and looking to take out some frustration on a team they already beat by 8 on their court.

For my first cap on SBR

JMU PK 10 dimes

Bezerk15 · 01-28-09, 04:54 PM

accidental hit the zero

JMU - PK 1 dime! hahaha

Damn, not trying to throw down the whole bank roll on this...but very confident with the pick

Hanger · 01-28-09, 05:26 PM

I am just happy a thread I started got some action!!! WOOHOO... GO JM!!! BOL tonight guys!

Bezerk15 · 01-28-09, 05:33 PM

I'm with you HUGE tonight Hanger - BOL

007Fatty · 01-28-09, 05:44 PM

YEA line is going back up.

wild willy · 01-28-09, 06:57 PM

Lets go get them hanger

Hanger · 01-28-09, 07:01 PM

BOL here and tonight guys!!!!!!

Bezerk15 · 01-28-09, 09:41 PM

Maybe the snow was a factor...

Damn they just couldn't keep it together...keep them on the radar, this is now their 2nd Back-to-Back loss - they followed that with a three game win streak - next up UNC Wilmington on Saturday - sorry for the let down fellas. BOL rest of night!

khaliagent · 01-28-09, 10:19 PM

i had old dominion for 50 units....nice call since i was like the only one on it ...it is a good idea to fade most of the guys here especially ck and curious...they are full of it among others

khaliagent · 01-28-09, 10:20 PM

i followed machine on duke and paid for it ... i thin i will fade most of the time since it worked well with vill +3 and old dominion
