    Dave Cokin: On Old D -8½ vs Hofstra

    On Old D -8½ vs Hofstra

    Game Time: 2/13/2007 7:00:00 PM
    By: Dave Cokin


    Looking to get even from a loss at Hofstra earlier this season, lay the points and get behind the Old Dominion Monarchs at home tonight.

    Talk about a team that's in your face for 40 minutes each and every game! This Old Dominion team is simply relentless. Add in the fact they're also pretty talented, and you've got a team that might really make some noise in this year's NCAA Tourney.

    Tonight, you can be sure the Monarchs will come to play as they seek to avenge a 70-58 loss absorbed at Hofstra earlier this season. The road team has a great backcourt and they won't likely turn the ball over often. But I believe ODU gets 'em on the glass and maintains what is a major current roll. ODU minus the points.

    Play: Old Dominion -8½

    Wow. Good luck to you but I disagree with your play here. I even like Hofstra on the moneyline here.

    I like the OVER at 137 here myself. Hofstra guards will not get flustered by the press, instead finding the open man. At the same time Old Dom is hot and won't back down at home.

    That makes two of us sir in regards to liking Hofstra plus the points.

    Seems like Hofstra is a square dog tonight.

    Passing on the side with a lean towards the over 137.

    Wow. I guess those 29 made free throws made the difference in the spread after all. I just didn't think they would get that kinda of home court advantage two games in row.

    Good call Old D backers!!!!
