Michigan you better pull this shit off. Losing parlays two days in a row because of Top 10 teams losing is gonna make me lose my mind.

fack

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 12:50 PM

This one will be worse as the Suckwads blew a double digit lead in the 2nd half. At least 'Nova was down most of their game yesterday. This is just inexcusable.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 12:51 PM

Stauskas bones a FT after going 9-9. Perfect.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 12:54 PM

Be nice to get Karma for the Seton Hall buzzer beater yesterday with one from Michigan, but when does that happen when you need it?

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 12:54 PM

I can already feel it ... if the Illini hit one here, I am gonna throttle something.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 12:58 PM

Sweet, now I can sweat out Florida in the 2nd half. Whew! St.Bonaventure looking great, might win on the ML. Hoping to avoid OT.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 01:02 PM

Boom goes the dynamite. Good start to the day. Stay humble. Avoid action plays. Repeat.

[2nd Half] Dayton-St.Joseph's Over 73.5 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 02:54 PM

My 1st instinct has been better than a lot of my picks as the days grind on, so sticking with that for this one after quite a bit of thought.

Tulsa -125

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 03:23 PM

Another 2nd half over is gonna stall out with a pathetic last 4-5 minutes. Maybe Karma can bring me OT for once, but when does it come when you need it?

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 03:26 PM

Of course now after they only scored 10 points in like 5:00, STJ & Dayton are trading baskets in the last seconds. OT or bust!

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 03:28 PM

Bust of course. Damn. Well that was one where the #s lined up, but it still flopped. Seems like all my failed 2nd half overs of late are dying in the last 5:00 after solid points till then.

Futures: -1.25

WCC was the only conference where futures worked out last week for me, so took a loss overall. Thought of playing more this week, but going to stick with just two I think. MAC is my first one that I am done looking over. Will post the other conference in a bit.

MAC
Toledo +210
Akron +550

Toledo is as explosive an offensive as you will find in D1. Their issue will be defense as they rank 10th in the conference in FG percentage allowed. They are a solid rebounding team though with good FT shooting and excellent outside shooting as well. The format of this tournament also helps as the top two seeds need just two wins to claim the title. Toledo will wait to face Buffalo, E.Michigan or NIU. It won't be easy as both NIU & EMU beat Toledo on their home courts, while Buffalo lost by just two @ Toledo. Akron is the 4th seed and faces either Ohio or Miami first. They split the regular season series with both teams. The Zips though are MAC tournament royalty with seven straight Finals trips. Coach Keith Dambrot knows how to get the most out of his teams this time of year with the Zips making the NCAAs three times in that span. They drew the better side of the bracket for themselves as they would go through Western Michigan to make the Final. They only lost by three on the road to the Broncos in their lone regular season meeting. For the price, they are worth a half stakes investment. Toledo gets the full one unit investment.

Big West Conference Tournament Futures
UC-Irvine +190
Long Beach State +600

All these still alive in the semis of their respective tournaments today.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 04:31 PM

Situated for the night slate. Again going to try and be very selective on 2nd halves. Pending NC Central to cash that first parlay. Tips @ 6pm ET. I have one other side I am monitoring, it's a later game so I may or may not play it at all. Gonna see where the line goes and how these pan out.

CUSA: [1st Half] Southern Miss-Louisiana Tech Over 65.5 [-110]
ACC: N.C. State +9 [-110]
Big 10: Minnesota-Wisconsin Over 134.5 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 07:12 PM

[2nd Half] Houston-Louisville Over 77.5 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 07:32 PM

Well got the Wisconsin-Minny over somehow in a total blowout, will take that. So 1-1 for the full game night slate with NC State pending. Wolfpack leading, figured they would be in the game all the way. Did not really understand the line being so high with how Syracuse has played for the last six weeks.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 07:52 PM

Alright finished off looking over the rest of the night and this is it for full game plays. Monitoring any 2nd halves worth it, but using caution.

Parlay: San Diego State + UC-Irvine [-106]
SEC: Georgia -1 [-105]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 07:53 PM

Damn Akron is out in the MAC. They were ahead most of the 2nd half then blew it and lost in OT. So it's all on Toledo for the futures.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 09:04 PM

[2nd Half] UMASS-George Washington Over 76.5 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 09:34 PM

I seem to recall GW screwing me on several 2nd half overs, but I still did it.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 09:40 PM

[2nd Half] Texas -3 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 10:11 PM

Well UMASS-GW did me up after all .. too bad UT is in turd mode vs. Baylor. Irvine needs to push hard here at the end ... ick.

What a hit. Wow. Congrats.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 10:23 PM

Irvine screw job for futures and the parlay. Damn it.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 10:59 PM

Another buzzer beater ... ack. UGA-Ole Miss ...

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:00 PM

Wooo hoo hooo. Marshall Henderson missed a good look at a 3 .... UGA up 1 and going to the line. Need to make these.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:01 PM

Eeesh. 1/2. Two point UGA lead. 2.6 secs left. Ole Miss ball. I may crap myself.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:04 PM

Whew! Bulldogs win after a 3 clangs off the rim.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:05 PM

8-4 at this point, great rebound day after yesterday. Still got some games in-play, so monitoring as needed. Hopefully tomorrow will be as good.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:25 PM

[2nd Half] New Mexico State -9 [-110]

erocking · 03-14-14, 11:28 PM

Albany +6 tomorrow. I added the 3 points , I usually buy insurance for my bets.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-14-14, 11:43 PM

Well the Big West futures might both be going bye bye. Long Beach down 10 in the 1st half, gonna need a large rally. At least there is time, but damn I want to at least get one of these teams in there!

EaglesPhan36 · 03-15-14, 12:06 AM

Should have done a little more research on the Big West for futures. CS-Northridge was pretty solid down the stretch, not that I would have guessed to back hem but in a tight conference where games are usually close ... who knows. If they make it tomorrow, I may be looking at backing them.

[2nd Half] CS-Northridge +7 [-110]
