I totally you understand taking the 8 points it is alot. Im hoping the line drops, w/ alot of action going on ND.

Im working on a ML PArlay something like
Stanford
St. Joesph's
Butler
Hawaii

Plays ATS
Wake Forest
Louisville
Louisville/ND over
Arizona St.

Louisvillekid1 · 02-28-08, 02:05 AM

I also like all 3 home favorites tommorrow in the NBA

MoneySportsGuy · 02-28-08, 02:08 AM

I really like Wake Forest at home

MoneySportsGuy · 02-28-08, 02:09 AM

What are the home teams tomorrow in NBA Louisville?

WestsidePete · 02-28-08, 02:10 AM

I like Butler after a loss...good one to add
I like all the others....and if IMGV and you are on Hawaii then I'll add them into the mix....Idaho is a pretty bad team...and how often do players from Idaho get to go to Hawaii?? has to some kind of effect right???...I cashed in on Hawaii a lot last year at home and they are 9-4 at home this year...Idaho 0-13on the road...

WestsidePete · 02-28-08, 02:12 AM

Gibson Hawaii's leading scorer may not play??

Louisvillekid1 · 02-28-08, 02:13 AM

yea waiting on gibson's status. . .

MSG,

NEts -3.5 vs Bucks
Spurs -5 vs Mavs
Lakers -14 vs HEat

awhitejackson · 02-28-08, 02:17 AM

I like ND too if it sticks at 8..

I also really like Wright State +13 @ Butler.. They have a strong 20-7 record and have only lost by 10+ twice all year.. I think Butler really showed some weaknesses in its last loss to Drake..Wright has really been controlling pace of games lately to a strikingly sucessful degree (average total score around 107 points)..Hanging on close games to win 7 of last 8..and only losing at Ill St. during this period ( we know how tough they are @ home). I look for a close game here..

Also leaning: Wake -3.5, Wash St -3, AZ +5, Port State -1...

Any thoughts?

MoneySportsGuy · 02-28-08, 02:20 AM

yeah if ND is 8 that does look good to me as well guys

MoneySportsGuy · 02-28-08, 02:23 AM

Louisville,

Wow love Lakers Spurts and Nets in a parlay maybe with Wake sounds good

JColli32 · 02-28-08, 02:53 AM

One of the strongest homecourts in NCAAB this year... Exclaimation point was put down on the 17th with a 13 point win @ home over Duke...Have lost only once at home this year with basically only two winning games being close (2 point victories over VTech and Miami).. Just gotta roll with these kinds of stats

Home loss to GTech...Wake led by 12 into 2nd half.. GTech took final lead with only 1:48 left and won the free throw game

JColli32 · 02-28-08, 03:03 AM

i liked it too when i first saw it im just scared that maryland can show up at anytime and just fire off pts in no time

awhitejackson · 02-28-08, 03:09 AM

Yeah only thing that scares me here is that a loss totally destroys either teams chances for a Ncaa berth (unless unlikely tourney deep run or win)..Though the winner may still have a tough road ahead a win here is big for either.. I tend to think this only sharpens the home court advantage, but still a point of concern..

***This is considering ACC only gets 4-5 teams in

MrFresh · 02-28-08, 03:16 AM

Im thinking of taking a 5 point 3 team teaser tomorrow.

These are the teams i am considering:
ND
Boise St
Wake forest
Nevada
St Joe's

Any other teams you would include?

awhitejackson · 02-28-08, 03:22 AM

I would say look at Wash State. Also gotta say Wright state again....info above..

I messed up with my math there....late nights haha....Edited this still like WSU though

diogee · 02-28-08, 03:24 AM

I will have Ark LR in a ML parlay for sure...probably N. Arizona as well

diogee · 02-28-08, 03:26 AM

Washington State looks real good to me at +3

stingyrivers · 02-28-08, 03:33 AM

i believe you mean wa st. -3 that's what the greek has em at, but i agree bro i was leaning wazzou -3

diogee · 02-28-08, 03:38 AM

Yeah that is what I meant Wash St -3

Yeah i gotta look at WSU. Wright state is a must play imo cant believe i left them off my list.

diogee · 02-28-08, 03:44 AM

Also leaning Wofford +3 and thinking about Tenn-Chat +8.5

andrewaxia · 02-28-08, 08:40 AM

Took ND +8.5

buztah · 02-28-08, 08:54 AM

Early leans:

Irish +8 1/2 (just too many points)
Austin Peay +4 (AP is solid and EK's last 2 homers were close)

I will be teasing these two games for sure.

andrewaxia · 02-28-08, 09:22 AM

I jumped on the ND line thinking it will only go down. Hopefully I don't see it jump to 9 in a few hours :-)

buztah · 02-28-08, 09:31 AM

andre, it's already at +12 1/2....

just phuckin' with ya/ LOL!

ACCBball · 02-28-08, 09:51 AM

Good morning,

Thanks to this board won a lot on Baylor and my own picks were clemson first half, nebraska, over 2nd half NC State.

I have seen most of the ACC games this year and tonight Wake is a really solid play. James Gist is not playing well right now and as he goes the Terps go. This game is so similar to the terps at miami. Miami beats Duke at home, feeling great about themselves and they come out and beat the terps by 13. Wake's last home game was a win over Duke and the have only lost one game in the entire season at home where they gave up 51 points to GT in the 2nd half.

MD has beaten Wake this year at the comcast center and in that game wake shot 5-30 from behind the arc which will not happen again. MD won that game by 7 shooting 47 percent from the field and shooting 14 more FT attempts than wake, again that wont happen on Wake's home court.

Also, its been a pretty good trend that if the first half goes under in the ACC, the 2nd half usually goes over.

GL everyone

Poker_Beast · 02-28-08, 11:14 AM

I am on ND +8 and Wake -2.5

Good luck!

Louisvillekid1 · 02-28-08, 12:28 PM

I love wake 1st half, and the line is moving in our favor because public see the name maryland and takes them.

WAsh St is one of the most overrrated teams in the country, especially on the road. GL on that one.

These are teams I'm looking at and to bounce ideas off of you guys...Sorry LK1, I seriously think Louisville may lose tomorrow. If the ND offense is rolling they will cover..I think 8 pts is plenty here for ND. I can't play Louisville...I will look deeper into this but right now it's a strong lean towards ND. I also like New Orleans to cover vs S Alabama. I have taken S Alabama a lot this year...and won several times..they are a great sleeper team for the tourny but are due for a let down. New Orleans is 18-10 has won 3 of 4 and get +13.5 here. I think S Alabama wins but won't cover. Next is UCLA vs AZ St. I believe this will be a close game 3-5 pts but the problem here is if UCLA has a 3 to 4 point lead AZ St will foul a lot in the last minute...and blow a AZ St play... I really like the under on this game so I will play it doing a 3 team 5 pt teaser with the under....AZ St +12....and ND +13.

ND +8

ML Parlay teams
Stanford
St Joes
Wisc
Valpo
Utah St
UCLA
S Alabama

I like your New Orleans play.
S Alabama should win by 4-6pts.
I will follow you lead.
NO +13.5 (-110)

GL

Wondering if anyone is taking a look at this one... Line has moved to +12 but I still really like the chances of this one coming in...Any thoughts?

...Wright is on a roll 11-1 SU

andrewaxia · 02-28-08, 01:43 PM

Here are my picks for tonight. Will be playing the PAC-10 later on and maybe some half lines.

Notre Dame +8.5
Austin Peay +4
Tennessee Chat +8
Murray St +2.5
Wake Forest -2.5
Boise St -3.5

1.1 unit on all plays

Not sure why this line has moved awhite, I really like Wright State here I dont trust Butler at all and only thing I can think is Butler at home but I dont see at all Wright State being blown out more then 10 in this. They historically play pretty close and Wright State has been on a roll
