Bucks / Wisky: Half court game, strong defense, poor shooting...should be a snoozer! lol. Craft will be walking ball up the court all game....Not sure how either team scores more than 60?

I agree think im going with 1st half under here if I get at least 60. Wiscy defense is garbage is my only slight concern but Buckeyes aren't exactly offensive juggernauts

I agree with under angle, and that 1H under probably is the way to play it. However, i still think that fading OSU is the best option. Passing on this game altogether.

Like the Richmond/VCU under as well. Just like Richmond a little more. I can't understand how Kentucky remains ranked so high. They have bad losses and only 1 solid win really.

I was looking into Xavier, but Seton Hall has been playing decent, so couldnt pull the trigger

I hear you, HW. I like UR, but just like 1H under a little more. Have a great day.

Like Xavier Biff

You are right about Seton Hall. However, XU is red-hot right now and the Cintas Center is a rough place to play and this is the Hall's first trip there. Similar to looking to fade ACC teams making their first trip to Cuse, I think there is value is backing XU at home here.

Rick22 · 02-01-14, 11:43 AM

Best of luck today Biff. Like the Xavier pick. Also like the Badgers - one team or the other has to start playing basketball at some point, and I'm homing for UW. Also sticking with those Hens (they don't owe me anything!)

Thoughts on the Az/Cal total 133'?

Rick22 · 02-01-14, 02:21 PM

Not a good start!

Much needed win for our Buckeyes today

Both models say over, between 138-141. I'll say Wildcats, 72-69. Gonna take a closer look at playing the over right now. Like the fact that my models say over and total opened above kenpom number of 133 (at 133') and has risen, particularly given the well-known AZ under trends this season.

I guess i needed it. Was up at 5:15 this morning to hit the gym for shooting drills and such. Our league starts this week and we play our big rivals in week one (next Thursday), so buddy and i went early to get the gym to ourselves. Gonna do the same thing tomorrow. As Woody Hayes famously said, "The will to win is not as important as the will to prepare to win."

Working on Zags/Dons total now. That one jumped out at me for potential over.

BiffTFinancial · 02-01-14, 07:19 PM

Dick Vitale could ruin the best game ever played. Duke/Cuse is a great watch early, but must-mute material.

He is insufferable.

ESPN employs a lot of shitty announcers, but Vitale is the platinum standard.

I find Walton funny. He's hardly a good announcer, but he's at least entertaining because he says dumb things that make me laugh. Vitale just yells the same thing twice over and over. So breathy and annoying.

His poor wife has to be hoping that he's on the road working five games a week until he's 90.
