    Your Pal Nasher Does NCAA Hoops-A Play I like Today

    UConn homer checking in.

    UConn/LIU OVER 144

    My 5th ranked undefeated 9-0 Huskies host 1-7 LIU Sharks
    UConn is -40 (that's right, you heard me, 40 point favorites)
    Total is 144

    I don't lay 40 points, ever, I don't care what the situation is.
    However...

    I know from LIU as they reside on the other side of the Long Island Sound from where I live in Connecticut, the Sharks play in the NEC out of Oyster Bay LI, as I follow the NEC, MAAC, and the Big East, the local teams.

    LIU loves to shoot, they shoot, and they shoot, and when they are done they shoot some more, and their defense sucks.

    This is a recipe for an 'over'.

    This isn't a 'homer pick', the Huskies could hang an 100 burger this afternoon on the Sharks.
    I really thought the betting line total for this affair would be around 151-152 or so.

    Feeling here there is a lot of value on the over 144.

    I've been wrong before, and I'll be wrong again, so tail at your own risk.
    You know, caveat emptor, and all that other bullshit

    UConn/LIU OVER 144
    That's my story and I am sticking to it.

    Happy Saturday all, and get that basketball money today.




    Billy Joel, a LI kid, gives a shoutout to Oyster Bay in his epic song.

    Love that tune, I'm a gigantic Billy Joel fan.
    His best stuff by far is everything pre Stranger and including the Stanger, everything after that is a little too much top 40 hits.

    Seen him live three times.
    He holds the record for most consecutive sellouts too.

    Genius musician.

    Best of luck Chucky, thanks for dropping by.

    For sure, Nashy. Great musician.

    On the Billy songs, yes. For me, older the better. My favorite Billy Joel song might be "Summer Highland Falls".

    The old stuff holds up so well. More commercial songs, not so much (IMHO).

    As the late great Casey Kasem used to say, "this long distance dedication goes out to you"

    They don't write lyrics like this any longer.

    So we'll argue and we'll compromise
    And realize that nothing's ever changed
    For all our mutual experience
    Our separate conclusions are the same
    Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity
    Our reason coexists with our insanity
    And though we choose between reality and madness
    It's either sadness or euphoria

    Good Luck, Knucklez. I'm a firm believer that these big SAT Coll Bask cards stress the oddsmaker. How do you get ALL these #s right?

    Good one, Nashy. Gets there in style.

    Jim Calhoun might even have one to celebrate the ATS win.

    you can find soft spots like this on some of the crappy games if you are real dialed into certain teams

    the book probably just splits the difference on the teams total ppg in these spots, making slight adjustments for pace/tempo

    good job nash

    Thanks Chucky, even a blind squirrel gets the acorn nut every now an than.

    Coach Geno and Mr. Calhoun I admire, Jersey boy Dan Hurley gets my respect too.

    I say this with my blue and white beanie cap off, this is a Final Four team, Huskies are just that f*cking good.

    And BANG there's that 100 burger, medium rare.

    Nashy, I have many great UConn memories:

    *Loved the Final Khalid El-Amin drove Elton Brand crazy.

    *The bittersweet one was Tate George drilling the buzzer-beater vs Clemson. Only to see the reverse in the next game, when Laettner finishes off the Huskies in Elite 8.

    Not sure this merits a response. But I'll try:

    *How inept are you?

    You type "Find on Page". And then search LONG ISLAND or CONN.

    3-0 in this Thread Nasher let’s keep it going.
    Detroit moneyline was the play as well but didn’t want to get cocky

    What’s next?
