    Tuesday leans

    Still don't see anything worth putting in play, but I said the same thing last night and went 3-0 on leans:

    James Madison +1 vs. Kent State
    Long Beach State +12 at Kansas
    Memphis +1 at Miami (Fla.)
    Marquette -7 vs. Washington
    George Mason +9.5 at Virginia
    Iowa +8 at Northern Iowa
    ECU -1 vs. UMass

    Everyone and their grandmother will be on Memphis and Marquette I'm sure, so those are pretty weak, as is GMU. Feeling rather confident about the first two, but enough to warrant plays? Doubt it. We'll see I guess.

    Good luck. I don't like that The Greek hasn't dropped the hook on GMU, but it's early. 9.5 is a lot in a Rivalry game; kind of why I'm also leaning Iowa, who has fared well against UNI in the past.

    Interesting that Greek is -1 on ECU with most other books +1. We'll monitor that one as well.

    I no your are just leaning these plays and won't bet them but the Iowa vs Northern Iowa game is gonna be a blast of a game IMO. No play on it yet but that will be an intense game.

    The Marquette game is normal everyone should be betting Marquette I have them winning the Big East!! Love this Quette team great fun to watch.

    Long Beach +12 is pretty fair play also hopefully that number goes up to +13

    I think the books are banking on people being scared to back ECU after losing at home to Charlotte. That was a rival game which is always played tight. ECU is so much better in every aspect of the game, IMO. Plus they're at home. I got ECU by 6-8 pts.

    I don't think this UNI team is as good as some in years past. This line should be about -6. I might have to bite at 8.5 or even 9. Iowa isn't very good, but again, that's a lot of points for a Big Ten team in an in-state game.

    The Marquette game is normal everyone should be betting Marquette I have them winning the Big East!! Love this Quette team great fun to watch.
    I honestly think Marquette is a Top-5 team.

    Long Beach +12 is pretty fair play also hopefully that number goes up to +13
    Me too, but I doubt it. In fact, I bet in closes at 11.5 or even 11.

    I admittedly don't know much about UMass.

    Don't think I would trust that Memphis team on the road. I like Miami in that game. Kind of like James Madison and Iowa though. GL

    im with houli and HW, it either canes or pass. i cant stand either team tho and rest assured whichever way you bet at some point you will be pulling your hair out in this one..no doubt mem is ultra talented but their decision making leaves a lot to be desired imho, not something you want while backing a team on the road..

    torn on lbst/ku as i could make a case for this to be close or ku running them out the gym..over looks really appealing to me as pace shouldnt be much of a problem here, but i hate col hoops overs as whenever i play one no one can make a shot ...

    hoping mizzou keeps getting pounded up as the points are really tempting here...no doubt this is a down yr for nova but their struggles come in the half court, mizzou's pace should be a benefit to nova as they have the guards to get up and down the court with the tigers..

    wish i would have got on Marq early as now -7.5 the best i can do. wash is sloppy, think marq prob runs away with this gm...

    not sure uva should be laying this kind of number in a gm that could very well be played in the 50's...

    Wow -- just saw that. Got to -6 (-152) at one point.

    Get the feeling Marquette doesn't cover whatever is the final number posted.

    anyone interested in lbst that number has shot up to 13.5....like i said i can make a case either way, did go ahead and play over 141.5 as i think this 6 points to short and should start to climb (as mentioned i suck at overs so a fade my be in order here).

    Marquette just beat Wisconsin at an unbeatable place, home, now they easily beat a non public Huskie squad. This is why I will will take Washington tonight. Good luck!

    Only two I'm backing off are Memphis and Marquette. Marquette got juiced like crazy overnight at Pinnacle when it hit 6. No way I'm touching it now. Something just stinks with the Memphis line.

    All of the others might be worth a roll of the dice if you're feeling lucky. Notice that you can get better numbers on all of them though, which means I haven't overwhelmed anyone with my foreshadowing.

    We'll see where it closes. I'm a little surprised it's gone up that much, but if it gets back down to 12, I think it's still OK. If it stays around 13 or 13.5, you're probably right.

    LBSU's actually 14 now at The Greek. Yeah, that's looking like a pass.

    As of now, I'd rank the leans:

    1) George Mason +10 at Virginia
    2) ECU +1 vs. UMass
    3) James Madison +1.5 vs. Kent State
    4) Iowa +8.5 at Northern Iowa
    5) Long Beach State +14 at Kansas

    I'd also consider Nova, Washington (based on Pinny) and maybe even Miami (Fla.), though my square gut still says Memphis.

    I don't see any big-play worthy potential on today's board, but of course, they're out there. I just haven't done a good job finding them.

    I only like two games.

    Miami and James Madison.

    It's a revenge game for Miami after barely losing at Memphis last year.

    Also, Memphis plays dumb ball. I'll take the home team even though I'm not a fan of short home favorites.

    Yeah, on one hand you have an unranked home fave, but they're favored by less than 3, so it all kind of evens out there.

    I do know this: Memphis is way more talented than Miami. How much that will mean in the end, who knows.

    I will also say this about Miami: they were -3 pre-market. SBRodds has the open at -1.5, but that's incorrect. So unless they get back to -3 or better, I'd be leery.
