    Not for nothing but what do you guys think about Arky tonight?

    At first I thought the line looked kinda weird with Texas A&M being ranked 5th against a sub .500 SEC team. But then I started diving into it and I really think it's a gift.

    A&M's Freshman C Tyler Davis is probably going to be limited because of his foot. He sat in their last game against Mizzou.

    A&M has lost both times they've played Arkansas at home since joining the SEC. Arkansas has won 25 of their last 30 SEC home games.

    Arkansas is pretty healthy. Although they don't really play much defense they light it up on offense.

    And other than that it's really a bad spot for Texas A&M. They're ranked 5th playing a sub .500 SEC opponent so they're expected to win even though Arkansas is a notoriously hostile environment. Even if they do win, they have nothing to gain. Arkansas is playing with house money. They're just going to be motivated to penetrate shit up for this shiny new highly ranked Texas A&M team.

    What do you guys think? Am I penetrating high or what?

    Yeah, I can absolutely see the reasons for playing Texas A&M on the short line as well.

    Thanks for stopping by LKid. Love your thread.

    Just saw that.. I like the idea of teasing Utah with Arky as I already planned on playing Utah as the 3rd leg of my chase tonight. I'm starting with Va Tech +10, then I got SJ State +12 in the middle at 9p.

    The Davis injury is over exaggerated. Kept him out vs mizzou because it's mizzou

    Yeah I ended up passing on it myself. I considered teasing it with Rutgers or Utah but I ended up just laying off.

    I'm doing a chase with Va Tech +10 at 8p. Gonna monitor that and make a decision about SJ State +12 at 9p. Then my late insurance play is Utah -7. They're at home playing Cal.

    Normally I wouldn't lay 7 against Cal but they're without their best player in Tyrone Wallace so I think it's a good situation. Cal just barely squeaked by Arizona and Arizona State without him and they were at home. Poetl and Loveridge I think will pose too many problems for Cal to keep it within double digits. Plus I think it's very safe to say Utah has had a WAY tougher schedule than Cal to this point. Go back and look at Cal's road performance and you'll find that every time they face a legitimate tourney team they fold.
