took some time off, was just getting to where i like too many games and then got crushed by them. nothing worse than being in love with a few and having them ruin every parlay, teaser, su...wtf ever bet you can think of..hah

n.mex -5.5... (hate that this mofo dropped a half already. they beat hawaii by 29 at the pit and your tellin me that playing on the island is worth 24.5 points??? homey dont think so)

rider ml...far superior team. getting disrespected by the line cus they are on the road i guess. drexel cant muster up 60pts on avg. gonna need a shitload of homecookin to beat rider.

tenn tech +17...why you might ask? cus TAB said so mofos. dont ask stupid questions. dont think ga tech should be favored by this many over anyone personally. strong backdoor possibility if its even needed.

leaning on whatever the unc 1st half# comes out to be and s.hall. still studying. bored outta my mind being off work

My plays are on two good Mountain West teams:

1* New Mexico -5.5
New Mexico beat Hawaii by 29 at home on November 21, and the Warriors have not appeared especially strong at home. The Warriors appear to be in for a long season -- probably the bottom half of the generally-weak WAC.

1* Utah -21
This one is pretty simple. Idaho State is one of the worst teams in Division I -- Pomeroy has them at 324 out of 340. Here they are going to be on the road playing a stout Utah team. Utah is coming off a nice win at Cal. Utah will be ready to show off for the home crowd and will blow Idaho State off the court.

New Mexico -5.5 - These guys COVER, yet the oddsmakers will not give them any legitimacy. NM is money from behind the arc and Hawaii is just awful.

Seton Hall -3.0 - Seton Hall runs-and-guns to the tune of 86.5 ppg and 11.4 steals. Can NCState keep up the pace? My guess is for awhile, but not long enough. Also, this line has moved 5 POINTS since it opened. Apparently the oddsmakers were unaware that NCState announced Monday that their starting PG would be out the rest of the season?

you read the opening lines wrong homey. sh opened at -1.5. line has only moved 1pt or so. wont be much of a difference with the backup guard play. the backup played about 20 minutes without any turnovers against cincy. so dont read too much into the starting guard being out. im undecided here. nc st. plays a hell of a lot more defense than any team sh has played so far. and they match up well. may be a no play for me... gl

[eglickman]

You guys sure about Hawaii? They've lost their last few but they were all close games. New Mexico's last two losses were both away games. I don't know much about either team, but just wanted to point that out. Can they cover -5.5 or could it be closer?

[KidDynamite]

I haven't been around the last week with the holidays. Hopefully I can start back up with some wins tonight.

Seton Hall -3 vs NC State
Rider +2.5 vs Drexel
New Mexico -5.5 vs Hawaii

[timmymor]

nc state +125
rider +125

[WarriorEagle]

NCState

Whoops, that line must be a typo on the site I checked. I still like Seton Hall at -3. NCState's backup is a frosh, I think the change will throw them out of whack enough for Seton Hall to win and cover.

NM smoked Hawaii earlier this season, @NM, by 29 points. You gotta like that evidence!!

[awhitejackson]

Going with regular guys picks N. Mex and Utah at same lines for 1 unit each...

[McRich]

I am going with NC -21 and Seton Hall -2.5.

[MoneySportsGuy]

Utah - 21
New Mexico - 6


Goodluck everybody

good point bout the road losses but nmst. is a huge rivalry game and usually goes to the home team. the ole miss loss was expected. the last few years, it has been near impossible to beat ole miss at home.. one of the toughest places to travel to. gl on your plays
