    Turkey day hoops

    What up everyone? Happy thanksgiving!!

    I don't expect as much participation as normal and personally I only got few hours then I'll be gone as well. As always anyone who wants to more than welcome to chime in now and/or keep thread going after I leave if ya so desire.

    We had a awesome day yesterday going 12-2! Certainly don't expect that to happen again, lol. Anyways that brought 2 day total to 18-10, in a perfect world that will look little better after today but who knows?

    As always I'll start off with 1 then add as I cap..

    Vols +8 .. books giving Rick Barnes team no credit here. Nova has yet to play a good team this year so I think some their numbers little misleading. Plus they jump shooters and didn't like the venue yesterday. I think vols will have success on the glass in this game and honestly they have look of team who came to win this tourney. Yesterday they let Purdue hang around after several times going on runs to take control of game. If they do that again maybe they get beat late but this a winnable game i in know way seeing decided by more than 8..

    He's out 4-6 weeks. This is Rhoddy's first D-1 game with him out.

    I agree, no clue why line dropped since then? Can't imagine hall not a popular play but doesn't make it the wrong 1.. I'm with ya,

    Square bets win too. Not much for me on this card. No need to force anything. Happy turkey day!

    Uni +3.5..little concerned about depth here but there also a lot to like. Don't let NCst beating zona get you twisted, as we talked about when playing the over yesterday zona was a great matchup for them. Today is just the opposite, uni will be like pulling teeth for them! They will turn this game into a grind, they will not give Wolfpack bunch of free points at the line or in the open court. If NCst can win a half court game against this squad thats shot should be more acclimated to this "gym" today then so be it.

    Arkansas +2.5.. much more impressive wins thus far. Let's see if the Sooners freshman point gaurd ready to hold up to the kind of pressure Mike andersons squad likes to put on the ball. Should be a track meet but I know nothing of this gym and books hung a really good number, pretty much right where i have it so no real value in total.

    Interested in watching butler/Texas and kinda like Texas but really just not enough evidence from either these young teams for me to be able to make a accurate number and I try not to be a dart thrower

    Hmmmm... I've been looking at the under in this one as a regression candidate. Both teams are playing their first games away from home and first games against a P5 team. Add to that OU's youth and we could see a sloppy one here. The Hogs tend to slow down a little away from home and lose a bit of efficiency. Possessions could be as low as 75, which would be pretty good for under 163.5.

    Think I agree, might have been little high with my pace. I'm not playing but I would tend to agree w you, having arky winning made me think high cause think they will get easy points.

    I'm gonna hold off and see if the line creeps up. Also want to see what the shooting and officiating looks like in the first game.

    I'm gonna play Texas but I promise it somewhat a dart throw, someone I have a great deal of respect for at another site is on them tho so figure if my lean lines up with his play might as well give it a shot. In shocka smart I Trust the process, lol

    Tex-3

    I really think that it. I skipped over some in name of saving time but is what it is. Didn't really look at the later starts so maybe when I get home later I could potentially have another play or 2, no promises.. gl everyone and have a wonderful thanksgiving.,

    Jesus Christ wtf did vols all get stoned at the half? This retarded! No way do you dominate a 1st half like that then give up 25-4 run in second!! I mean sure i knew nova would come back, but should be a game not a freaking blowout!!

    Dude I knew nova come back but figured to around even then it be a back and forth game! Silly me too! Lol., I strongly considered middle since it was such huge opportunity but like a dummy I passed.

    It’s happened to me so much between nba and college this year already, just huge lopsided second halves.. I don’t get how teams just quit

    I think we be close. Just hope foul game doesn't get us at end. Happens all the time to everyone w hoops, once we get more into season you will see I typically always take half original bet and go for middle in these type games.,

    Can't imaging our picks were ever similar, prob just different plays most the time but I've never played many favs and seems you do.. not saying one any better than other just different but doubt we line up much considering styles way different.. totals we havnt seemed to disagree any which makes sense., gl buddy
