Chaminade +13.5 1H

[Wilforth]

It has now become almost a standard practice in these neutral site games that DD favorites fail to cover the 1H spread before going ahead to roll in the 2H. Vanderbilt hasn't been particularly impressive in the 1H. Chaminade are a decent enough team and can cover this huge 1H spread.

Tailing you cham +13 1H.....GL Wilforth

This happened in about 90% of the games yesterday. Take the dog to cover the 1H spread and the favorite to cover the 2H spread. That has been the story.

Chaminade is a decent enough team? The only thing Chaminade is decent at it anually getting blown out in the Maui. They are a bad team. Vanderbilt may be a little overhyped as well but Chaminade is not a decent team. Don't disagree with your play nessecarily (don't see value on either side) but don't be fooled into thinking Chaminade is capable of staying with Vandy for any extended amount of time.

GiveMeaBJ,

I get your point but the issue is no team is even interested in winning the 1H by as many as 14 points. The 1H should be closer than expected. Vadenderbilt will then roll in the 2H. The game will be similar to the Florida A&M/Riders game.

[Wilforth]

For games played at neutral sites, playing all DD dogs in the 1H, even blindly, is profitable.

[Rixsaw]

as always, dog 1H or no play. The only time the dog don't cover is when the fav. has very good D thus prevent the dog from putting up any points. good luck guys.

[Wilforth]

Thanks Rixsaw. These games are won mostly in the 2H. The 1H doesn't matter much.

[Rixsaw]

Lets hope we are right. Like the FAMU game, everyone knows FAMU sux, and Rider should roll. Many people were on Riders 1H. It's sux that the obvious winner doesn't cover 1H, but it's usually the case. I like 1H dog and 2H fav if the fav is behind (5 or more) after 1H. A word of caution when going against the top 10 teams in the 1H though. Their D can keep the dogs from getting inside shot resulting in lots of miss outside jumpers. Additionally they can create a lot of turnovers. These are just my opinion. I'm no expert.

Vandy isn't anywhere near the top 10.

Last week, I played some of dogs +points in 1H blindly, especially during early games; I also thew in few MLs that payout pretty good, just like wilford pointed out, favorite teams don't really want to play/win the 1H.
Just don't know when this trend gonna stop....probably when they play with their conference.

[Wilforth]

Looking good! Only 5 points down, 4 minutes to the end.

Based on a similar analysis, my next 1H play will be:

Delaware +11.
