    Valparaiso -2.5

    I really like this play. Detroit isnt a bad team at home, but they are not good on the road. Valpo won in Detroit by 2 When they first met this year and didnt cover the -5 spread. But on this one they are at home. Valpo needs this win to stay with Clev St for 1st in the Horizon. Any thoughts?

    I have no reason besides Valparaiso looks too good. I completely agree with you on everything you said and would love to take them but, since it seems so easy I tend to go the other way.

    I did this last night with Rhode Island. I loved UMass and so did everyone else and the line was too low and seemed like a trap so I went with Rhode Island with a 1-9 home record and they won SU.

    Just seems like the same scenario in this game.

    hahahah So true. Actually just seen Youngstown St -2 against Illinois Chicago. UMASS killed me earlier in the year in non conference. So I put them on my blacklist. But now im really loving this Youngstown State pick even more then Valpo.

    Youngstown seems good too, I was looking at that game earlier. I want to see how the line moves though, 70% are on Youngstown.

    Illinois Chicago is horrible. I think Im gonna lock it up, especially after YSU just whooped on Wisc-Mil on the road.

    I don't know if you should lock it up now. It's a toss-up. There might be a RLM on this one going in Chicago-Illinois' way. BOL though.

    Illinois Chicago plays Youngstown State tough. Even beat them bad last year. I would stay away from the spread and play the OVER 130 total.

    Detroit has the players, and Valpo has the coach. Detroit can lose to anyone on the road. not even a question. I had them circled, but cut them off my picks.

    Looks like the bigs are putting their money on Detroit. With around 3/4 of bets on Valpo, Detroit's line has gone from +3 to +2. It's Detroit, or, maybe better, no play.

    I really never play Over/Unders. I dont prefer to play them. Yeah they beat YSU at home last year, but YSU is clealry a better team this year then they were last year. Gonna ride with 1 unit on Youngstown St.
