As I was capping this morning, The Marist/Iona matchup seems to be a juicy proposition from the contrarian side of the street. Squares are going to pound on the boys from Marist with their 14-3 ATS road underdog 9.5 to 12 angle. Additionally, Iona with its 1-5 ATS record when playing a losing team. They won't be able to help themselves.
Contrarios will be on the Ionaaaaas, which is our posted, early, get it in quick, selection. Before you eat your wheaties boys, go get Iona.
Iona -9
I am tempted to hit the lock imoticon but I won't, maybe I will, what the hell. Let's put a jinx on it, in order to make this one difficult.

We add two games to the contrarian radar this morning. The Contrarian is pleased with the way Siena/Rider is setting with a Total play. Contrarians should be watching this game to the under side. Squares will be pounding the over to no success.
Additionally, the sharpes will be cash in nicely on James Madison, I think you can see the pattern on all the contrarian selections today without going into detail.
Let's review where the contrarians are at this point in the day.

Sit tight Contrarians, we are punching contrarian selections out, at a 57% clip. I would like to be at least in the 59%-61% range in order to be permitted into the bragging category. But, let's not get cocky, let's get focused. The Contrarian selections are about results, not hype.
James Madison +4, I am putting it in early. I anticipate the line going the other way. Not really, I am lying. My wife has me going to some play party with my kid.
We have an additional radar watch on New Mexico State as the contrarios stand guard at the lighthouse. Contrarian indicators are present. Still awaiting line confirmation.
Louisiana Tech finishes strong to give us the cover for the late night game. It's been a tremendous day, running 5-2 for the contrarios. What was odd today was that with all the success, not one post from anyone else out in the world. Maybe there are alot of non-believers out there, but that's okay.
Let's recap today's selections:
Rider Under 148 (L)
James Madison +4 (W)
Iona -9 (L)
Princeton -5.5 (W)
New Mexico State +6.5 (W)
New Mexico State +250 ML (W)
Louisiana Tech +16.5 (W)
