hey guys first time posting here but i post in a couple other sport forums. I love these forums i honestly think if i spent as much time on school as i do on sports betting forums i'd be a Lawyer. haha but i am coming off a pretty good day yesterday 3-1 but i am not going to count that on my record. Not here to try be the man or anything just make some picks and see some good opinions and see the other side of the coin on things.I like Illinois to cover 3. I think that Illinois’s tough perimeter D is going shut down the 3 ball and I just think the Illini are much more athletic and can get up and down the floor better. Also I have noticed Bruce Webber teams play good in conference down the stretch. They have 3 guard good enough to not get flustered by the 1-3-1 and also have won 9 straight in this match up.
ILLINOIS - 2.0 2.5 UNITS
fYI i usually post only 1-3 unit plays sometimes 4 or 5 but i haven't yet this year
I really like New Orleans. I really Don't understand the line at all. New Orleans has already beat N. Texas earlier in the year. I also don't think N. Texas's home court is that big of affect. This is a pretty important game in the cluttered sun belt conference i don't see n. texas running away with this conference. Also N. Texas give up a ton of points, granted they can score too but i dont see them covering double digits. New Orleans is also not a terrible team on the road. The only thing that scares me is New Orleans lack of 3pt Shooting.
NEW ORLEANS +10.5 2 UNITS
I think this is going to be my final play. At first glance of the stats Nevada vs San Jose St i know why this game opened as a pick'em. Their offensive and defensive numbers are almost identical. I like Nevada because they have played better competition and think they are a tougher stronger team that doesn't get rattled. I also like playing teams that open as a dog or a pick em and then move towards a favorite in the right circumstances. I am getting it at Nevada -1 be4 it moves any further.
NEVADA -1 1UNIT
