    RooTBoY's NCAA Thread....ON FIRE as of late so check it out

    Hey everyone, I just recently switched over to SBRforums website because of lack of confidence and balls in my old forum, but anyways my specialty is NCAA and NBA basketball and ill be providing my leans, plays etc. for everyone to check out. As well as keeping a record of my plays. So GL to all and trust me, if your smart you'll be tailing me within the next 5 days. Lastly, im always open to others opinions, advise and reasoning on plays so feel free to speak your mind.

    For today, Jan 19th im liking a few plays

    GTech -1.5
    Tennessee -2.5
    Utah - 1.5
    Texas A&M ML
    Miami-Florida ML (unless line moves down a point or 2 then id take the spread, but right now its at -7)

    as for NBA

    Miami -5.5
    Miami/Indiana

    will update leans/plays throughout the day,

    TN is worn out (their own words) after this last short-handed home stretch. They get a couple of guys back for this game, but I worry about the fatigue factor in this one. Care to share your thoughts on that?

    Well tcarn, couple of reasons why I like georgia tech, both teams are playing very well this year and the match-up is very similar i like georgia tech because the spread keeps moving down closer to a straight pk so therefore the spread wont really matter. Another huge reason is because Georgia Tech has home court advantage and you and I both know that especially in college basketball playing at home gives you an outstanding advantage and its a 16 seed vs 18 seed game so the GTech students are gonna be fired up.
    But im pretty sure I am going to just pass on this game because there are already enough great leans that its not worth the risk of picking one of these teams to win straight up.

    tabasquito, even though Ten may be "worn out" after their last home stretch, but keep in mind their last game was Jan 16th which was the last game of that home-stretch and that was when they were worn out and fatigue almost lost them the game, luckily they held on to win it in OT. So with 2 days of rest they have no excuse to be worn out anymore and they got a hell of a coach who will refuse to let them make excuses. Also TN's scheduale is by far more hard than Alabamas is, not to mention that they finally formed an identity for themselves after beating Kansas showing the world that they could compete with the best of the best NCAA teams. Anyways fact of the matter is, is that Alabama have been slumping of late losing their last 2 games to Vandy by 1 and then getting demolished by Arkansas by 12 when the spread was 1.5.

    Bama will keep it close for the first 15 min but them Volunteers are the real deal this year and will break it open

    That stretch definitely showed character. I appreciate your response.

    Good luck with the pick.

    I am with you on the Texas A&M ML. Let's cash that one!

    yup, thanks....Oh and I saw your post on another thread that was called my lock pick of the day and the person picked Gtech beatin clemson and you asked if you should take the ml or Gtech -3........ If I were you I would wait till late afternoon and take the spread, actually on some sites the line has already moved down to Gtech -1.5 which is perfect.

    Yeah, I saw that line moving. I will likely lay off of that one entirely though I lean towards Ga Tech at home especially with the improving line.

    yeaaa well tabasquito, you might have to change your mind yet again and definentely think hard about taking GTech -1.5 sooner than later because Clemsons best player or at least most valuable player Demontez Stitt is out with a sprained mid-foot, Stitt, who leads the team in points per game, scoring in double digits in 11 of their last 13 games as well as leading in assists will take the whole Clemson team off their game

    yo sportsfan you got anger problems or something dude, your whole post made absolutely no sense against my reasoning. Take a look at the posts again do I ONE TIME mention N.C. at all??? Seriously dude you got some issues, all your talking about is how myself and others are on GTech because they beat N.C. when not once did I mention that, hmmm and why didnt I mention N.C. because they suck ass, I KNOW THISSSS which is why your logic is absolutely pathetic. Haha callin me a homer cause "apparently im obsessed with nc and talked about how good they are in my last posts" can you read sportsfan, check the posts again and let me know where i mention nc at all dumb a**
