    Unit Review:

    Compared to others my unit total may look low... this is due to high unit value... so while my best play released may be 5* at most, I think I've had 1 6* and the rest below, make sure you adjust to get it on par with other people's unit systems... I may have 3 plays, the best being 4*, someone else may have 3 plays, the worst being 5*... that does not mean that he likes his plays more than I do, it simply means that he uses smaller unit value

    So when you see people throwing out 5*s for every play, consider my 1* as one of their 5*s, and multiply my unit size by 5 to acheive what my play would be in their unit system

    Marist was up 9 with 20 seconds, ended up winning by 7... sick backdoor cover for Fairfield... oh well, had the right side of the game, Fairfield and backers just got very lucky at the end

    As for Indiana... Illinois is playing their best game of the season, so not looking good

    Man IU better not start trying for 3's all day because sometimes they hit but sometimes this team gets cold with that. They need easy buckets, put some defense and crowd momentum and then hit their FT's from now on down the stretch increase that lead up.

    Goodluck astro, I'm on IU haha!

    Yea that was my fault, didnt get back until about 2:55 and knew Rider tipped at 3 so had to hurry and post it and hope some people saw it

    Also put a 1 unit bet on Denver -1, but wont include that in my unit and record total since I didnt post it

    YTD Record: 47-38-3, +23.60 Units

    stupid IU kept trying to shoot 3's they could have got those 12 easy, Illinois had a drought of over 9 minutes no FG and they are trying to drop treys. grrr what can you do. maybe overtime, and IU comes out finishes with a 14-2 run haha

    Denver ended up tearing Arkie LR apart, 3's werent falling for Arkie and they couldnt handle Denver's slow offensive pace

    Since I didnt post it on my card, still +1.7 for the day, but a nice +2.7 for me actually today

    don't know why your lines are inflated. I see Wisco at -4.5, Baylor at -6.5 and Missouri St. at -8.5 everywhere. I want to hop on that Missouri St. line but it seems a little high for that game.

    I just got on Bodog real quick to check lines to post on here, even tho I use 5dimes... still think they cover all 3 of the inflated lines tho

    Checking 5dimes now, as I go to place my bets, they are all inflated... so I'll change my plays real quick with the real lines

    yeah I know the records you listed, and I usually value those as big importance but I dont know my gut just tells me to stay away from that game. I am however looking at Kentucky and taking the +9.5 with that.

    I'm not a chalk player at all, but I agree with you on Missouri State and Baylor. Indiana State's 4-38 SU on the road in conference play dating back to '02. Ouch.

    Good luck.

    I'll take it, even tho Nebraska cost me a lot of money, had parlayed all my plays together, I still ended up nicely ahead on the day... which I cant complain since Tuesday isnt a CBB day.. just were a lot of great lines today

    My CBB days, where I look to cash in big, are Wednesday and Saturday
