4* Oklahoma 1H +4

The Sooners are starting to gel and have always played well at College Station, particularly in the 1Hs. Meanwhile, A&M is off the Rivalry game loss to Texas Saturday and due for a bit of a 1H letdown. The line movement favors Oklahoma as well. While I don't think that Oklahoma will win the game outright, and may not cover the +7' for the game, I like them to cover the 1H and perhaps even lead at halftime. The clincher? Hoop_guru likes it too.

[NOTE: booked this at -105, so 4.2 units to win 4]

I like this game..Although I prefer the +8 full game score..I do think they keep it close throughout this game..They are pumped thinking they (OK) have got a stout D.

adding:

3* Hofstra -3'

The public is leaning towards George Mason as expected, even as a dog, but Hofstra is the better team. Statistically speaking, GMU is mediocre to below-average in everything except DEF FG%. Hofstra is no world beater and has some offensive issues, but is as good as GMU or better in most areas, particulary on the boards and defensively. These teams played two weeks ago at GMU and Mason won by 4, but needed good days both from the line and 3-point range to do so, while Hofstra had major turnover and foul problems. Assuming a return to statistical normalcy in Hempstead tonight, I expect a motivated Pride and the home cookin to prevail, and Hofstra to hit their FTs down the stretch to put GMU away by 8-12 points.

Ive been leaning towards this play today as well..Think I may go ahead and pull trigger. Best of luck!

hoop, will look at Indiana St 1H. i immediately crossed that one off earlier today based upon line movement (thinking that perhaps was an expression of the smart money's belief that Lathan isn't playing for Indiana State? i'm pretty sure he's out again). i was actually pondering the 1H under 62' there instead, which i believe would be bolstered by Lathan's absence. line movement favors the under, which to me means 1H under. any thoughts there?

adding

3* Illinois +4'

Illini win outright, and I don't think line will get any higher than 4'. also have Illini 1H small.

recap of card

4* Oklahoma 1H +4
3* Hofstra -3'
3* Illinois +4'

BiffTFinancial · 01-19-10, 08:49 PM

4* Oklahoma 1H +4 - LOSER, A&M, 39-29.
