    they will cover the 9.5 IF Miah Ostrowski starts at point. In the paper, it was reported that he was highly questionable due to a staph infection. The word is that there was a good chance they will save him for 2nd place New Mexico St. when they roll into town on Saturday. In my WAC leans I have La. Tech covering the spread due to Miah not starting. His back-ups are a poor shooting shoot first true freshman that's turnover prone, and a sophomore that some times airballs free throws. Hawaii should win, but if Miah's not starting, it won't be by double digits.

    Always proceed with caution whenever the Rainbows are favored.

    Hawaii is much improved this year but I like them in the underdog role. 10 is alot for them to win by. Hopefully they can do it at home. They are just so horrible at free throws that big spreads worry me with them.

    Might actually parlay Louisiana Tech and the under on this one. Am I by myself on this one?

    Hawaii isn't bad at the FT line...they shoot at about a 69% clip, good for 4th out of 9th in the WAC. Zane Johnson recently set the record for most FT's in a row in one season for a UH player (28) and the guys who commonly go to the line have vastly improved their charity stripe stats.

    On the flip side, La. Tech has played all their WAC games fairly close this year, the biggest margin being losing by just 10 at NM St. So I guess the question here, is who matches up better against La. Tech? NM St. or Hawaii? Hawaii's big men have been playing solid as of late, but the X-factor here is Miah setting them up for success. There might be a different chemistry without Miah at the point, which may keep the game close.

    If you follow trends all the time you will find yourself bankrupt. Yes, that matter sometimes but don't you think if trends were always right we'd all be millionaires? Trend lightly.

    This line opened up at -10.5 for Hawaii, don't you think if Hawaii was such a lock it would be -15 by now? Instead it went down. I'm not saying Louisiana Tech is a sure win but I'm liking them in this situation. BOL to you.

    its not just stats, that just one factor to consider. You should not always follow lines either, and i win more than most, my bankroll is very nice,

    Hawaii was a great 2h team and a crappy 1h team at least at the beginning of the year.

    Shaq Stokes should get the start. He's shooting 30% overall on the year. He's a true freshman and plays like it. He does get a few assists here and there, but he often makes ill-advised passes and bad turnovers. Check this out:

    Miah has 68 assists versus 21 turnovers
    Shaq has 49 assists to 39 turnovers

    There u go.

    I understand and I agree it's something to consider but I don't base my play off trends, just not my style.

    Good luck to you and Hawaii.

    -8 and 76...thoughts? I would have liked it if Hawaii was still down 6 at half so the 8 would just mean a win.

    Hawaii without their leading scorer and outside threat. Also without their main ball handler and assist leader. I'd be careful on playing Hawaii 2H. With that said..... Hawaii will cover 2H cause I'm going the other way
