    LOOK AHEAD to Saturday 3/7 NCAAB

    You know the drill... 11-3 last two Saturdays when we looked ahead to the super Saturday college hoops cards.

    Let's take a look at some of these games before lines are released. Then we can try to identify the lines that stick out.

    Georgetown vs Seton Hall
    The Hoyas have looked pretty good lately, they got their last home game of the season to make a great impression and get a good seed before letting everyone down in the NCAA tourney. I'd set this line around Gtown -6 or 7 maybe

    West Va vs OKState
    All depends on if Staten and Brown are suited up and playing real minutes. These two combined for 40pts last meeting at OKSt. The mountaineers out rebounded them by about 15 and dominated the game. IF the two are healthy, or at least Staten is good to go, then I'd like west va laying anything 5 or less.

    Kentucky vs Florida
    Florida is so banged up, their on the road so they don't have the adrenaline pumped college game day crowd with them. UK laying anything under 20 should be strongly considered. Line should be about 17?

    LSU @ Arkansas
    I like LSU in this matchup so if they're getting any points I think it's a good deal.

    Virginia @ Louisville
    Justin Anderson finger is apparently good to go, but he just got an Apendectomy so he won't play this weekend but could be back in time for ACC tourney. The Cards can't score during the pregame layup line, let alone going against the best defense I've seen in years. I'll confidently lay up to 7 points here with UVa.

    Boise state vs Fresno St
    Lay up to 10 easily here. Revenge spot to win MWC.

    Illinois at Purdue
    Like Purdue here anything under 5

    Kansas at Oklahoma
    OU here much more healthy and if they're getting any points at all I'll take it, or lay up to 3.

    Duke at UNC
    I like Duke to roll here, spread should be small tho.

    I was gonna post a thread on this.... but ill say it here dommy.

    Illini + the pts.

    Im a life long fan. And never bet them.
    But i think saturday is the defining moment under John Groce.
    we HAVE to play well and compete.
    and that being said.... ray rice would run through a fukking wall to get this W Saturday. He has NEVER played in thw NCAA tourney. A god damn shame if a player of his caliber never gets the chance in the big dance.

    Having watched rayvonte play since highschool... i think with his back against the wall he plays lock up defense, rebounds per usual, and scores mid 20s. Most of all, he continues leading this team and i think we cover and get a W at purdue.

    We have played very well the last week+ and its exactly the right time. If we can atleast contain hammons and haas.... we will win.

    Terrible words of wisdom. Degenerates bet every day cuz they have to. Good bettors can pass on a slow day and research for the big days.

    Don't have time to wake up super early on Saturdays and start my research then. I get started on Fridays.

    I think what JJ meant was research is important bit sometimes we can all over think things.
    That being said, I still disagree. You can never plan to far ahead when you make money the way we do.

    Early lines are starting to get released....

    Virginia laying 2 at Louisville seems like a slam dunk, I'll lay anything under 7 here, love it at 2.

    Boise St -10.5 is right what I expected and probably still a good play.

    Duke/UNC line opened at UNC-1.5, now showing Duke-1... interesting line.

    UC Davis is -1 at home vs UC Irvine... is that too easy?

    MSU has won the last three meetings vs. The Hoosiers by an average of 16 points.
    Why do you think they'll be the dog tomorrow?

    I don't think Florida is as banged up as you think, Dom. Their best scorer is coming back for this game...

    Davidson 1h if this doesn't hit ill prob double up on the halftime spread

    UVA -3

    MSU+1

    Might play Saint johns for the first half and hope they keep it close or even lead and then pound nova for the 2h with a nice number

    Purdue -5 not sure about this one could be pretty tight at the end

    Love virginia and uc davis at first glance. So many games, could be a dangerous day at least for me. I just hate this weekend because I don't see a lot of meaning in a lot of the games.

    Gotta love xavier -3, creighton stinks. Also taking a look at rutgers +10, Michigan has been horrible since losing players to injuries.

    at provo? provo-2.5 feels short to me, id prob make it that on a neutral. dunn and henton 2 of the best 3 players on the court, put butlers dunham wherever you would like on the list with them. think he prob 2 behind dunn.. pc also has length for days to deal with woods down low.. for my money provo the better team at home, the only real knock on them is for some reason johnnies bother them but outside of them and nova they have owned the conf and i think the second best team in the bEast. butlers only real adv is the 3 ball, you wanna trust them to shoot lights out on the road to win? i feel a lot better bout the team that gonna own the inside and more than likely win at the foul line..
