GoBruins · 03-10-07, 03:11 PM

any value in kansas -4?

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 03:36 PM

I passed on that one, GoBruins.

Ohio St 2H -4 = winner.

CBSsportsline just now changed their page layout. Making it harder (taking longer) to post these stats. Which sucks, because not too much time at halftime.

Look at the shooting percentages. What's the chance that NCST will keep that up? Good turnover edge for VaTech as well.

Spread is 6.5, which means VaTech has to win the game (a 5.5 pt spread would be the same here).

VaTech 2H -6.5

The HG · 03-10-07, 05:06 PM

I had Va Tech 2H also.

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 05:36 PM

Let's hope they pull it out. The attitude on the team, from what I can see, is a bit off. Game is tied with 7 minutes left, so definitely possible.

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 05:42 PM

FT's are killing them.
5 for 14 from the line. In college?! NCSt is 11 for 12.

The HG · 03-10-07, 05:45 PM

Yep, not looking good, but we're still in it. I think it was a good bet though. I got -7 +100. If it loses, I still think there was value with the play. As others on here often say, let's cash this sucker!

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 05:53 PM

Less than two minutes. Looks like this will be a loss. Since we're going into intentional fouling soon, this is the only reason why:

FT's
NC State: 13 of 14 (93%)
Va-Tech: 5 of 15 (33%)

Too bad. On to the next.

I have to think that the shooting percentages will even out enough for UNLV to lose the game by no more than 6 pts. Of course BYU has more rebounds (the UNLV misses), but I do like the steals for UNLV. Shots will have to start falling, plus they're pissed off right now during the break.

Medium play on UNLV 2H -4.5

The HG · 03-10-07, 08:05 PM

I don't know, i looked at that one, but laid off of it. UNLV might be too spent to mount a comeback, especially since they'll get an NCAA bid. But GL DH, hope you win it.

UNLV has it down to 2. With a chance to tie out of a timeout. Rebels are more agressive to the hoop in the 2nd half.

The HG · 03-10-07, 08:36 PM

Yeah, it's a game now, UNLV back with energy! Looking good for you DH, nice pick.

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 09:12 PM

Vegas team.

Not too bad. 2H 52-33

(Was looking at Spurs, who played unbelievably horrible, but somehow pulled out the 1H cover in the final minutes.)

onlooker · 03-10-07, 09:18 PM

Very nice pick DH. Like I always say, they come out flat in the 1st half, and turn it up in the 2nd.

GO REBELS!!!!!!!

13% difference in shooting. Not sure about this one. Utah St only needs to win 2H by 1 pt, with -0.5 spread. Ten points at the half seems a pretty sweet spot, where the leading team is feeling good about itself and a little too relaxed, and the other team is equally as ready to prove itself after the break.

Still, not sure about this one. Thoughts?

Crayzee · 03-10-07, 10:00 PM

i went with pitt -3 2h
not playing the utah st game

Dark Horse · 03-10-07, 10:05 PM

I was leaning the same way with those two games, but decided to call it a day. Good luck.

Shooting percentages 14% apart, with LB getting more shots (39 versus 31.5; with FT's counted as 1/2 shot). Also a nice turnover advantage. For the season Long Beach St has a +8 pt 2H edge. They will have to win the game though:

LongBeach St 2H -4.5

Nice calls Horse...

Dark Horse · 03-11-07, 12:54 AM

Nice half by Long Beach.

I like the way they play. Street vibe.

CalPoly. Behind 10 pts with 22 seconds left and still fouling.
