2 picks

Creighton -3 (2 units)
Northeastern p (5 units)

Creighton is coming off of a 80-67 home loss to Illinois St. Creighton is a decent team with a 9-2 record but 0-1 in conference play. Creighton has defeated some good teams: Drexel (won 72-48) and St Joseph's (90-84). Indiana St is 5-0 at home and I think they are due for a home loss. Creighton also plays Indiana St every year. In the most recent meetings between Creighton and Indiana St, Creighton put the clamps on them 59-38 last march. In that game, Indiana St was held to season low in points, shot 23% from the field, only 6 assists but committed 16 turnovers. Only concern I have for Creighton is probably their free throw shooting.

I like Northeastern and especially how they hung tough in the first half vs Syracuse. Northeastern is a better team than Towson. I like Northeastern since they can put up a lot of points and I do not think that Towson can.

Iowa +10.5 over Indiana
Too many points to be getting in a confrence game at home. Iowa is solid on the defensive end and should keep this one close to the end.
3.3 units to win 3

YO - is it my imagination, or did you step out for a cupa joe?

If so - I''ve been looking for your posts, and coming up short lately - I may just log on at strange times out west. Nice to see the post!

Really like the UNC-Wil squad at Drexel solid play, should win going away, pos DD.

Is this PORTLAND - YALE game on board anywhere? I'm staying away - very strange matchup - WCC vs Ivy?

Yeah I was out of town for a week for the holidays and hadn't been able to post. UNC-Wilmington really f-ed us over tonight. They had total control of that game in the 1st half and then didn't bother showing up in the 2nd.
