college bball picks 11/23

[goduke]

Mich State-5(uconn is not that good, they have kemba and thats it. trust me I go to this school and this -5 is based on the public perception of the uconn name only)

Marquette-2 not only because of the line movement but they hung really well against duke last night plus this year gonzaga is really going to have a tough time with gray being their only true scorer

Butler-6 Siena has played their opponents tough, butler should be able to cover but itll be close

kstate+6 Duke should be able to squeak this out but that crowd is heavy kstate and kstate has played two ranked teams and are a little more battle tested to start the year. I would not take the kstate ml though I really dont think they will win

Wash-3 Did you see the firepower last night??? They normally always start the year off well, not to mention kentucky is always a huge public play. Jones is the only emerging player so far for kentucky while washington has numerous people who can score

All of those are heavy public plays .... Even Washington

[mlb]

Not saying they all won't win going away ... Just a thought

I think your strongest play here is Mich st.
I would've said Butler, b/c I watch both a lot of their games along with Siena games, but after looking into it a little further Siena might be able to keep this to a one possession game. I was gonna hammer Butler hard, but now I'm having second thoughts. I will be at the game 2night. I still might go Butler, not sure yet.
Scary thing is with K State, they can't make free throws. So in a close game when they go to the line they will throw some close games away.
Wash/Kent...is a very tough game. Kentucky def. has some young talent and after seeing wash play last night, they do also- except they played Virginia. This one i'm gonna stay away from.
Marquette/Zags, don't know what to think. Originally I was leaning Zags, but that line swing is out to fuk with people. Everyone who was confident with Marquette is now even more confident, and thats what the books want. This game will probably come down to the last shot

Good luck 2day

yeah i just noticed that....I did the write-up before i checked. MSU and Marq will probably stay like that but i still think those are two easy wins. Kstate and wash will even out before tip. And the more i look at the butler/siena game the more i think its actually a no play. I wouldnt worry too much about the public plays though, college bball is normally pretty square at the beginning

the thing with the zags is they only have gray to score. Thats normally an issue in a tight game

[goduke]

gl to you as well

[Barnes01]

Zags cannot match Marquette in the post at all, Marquette will have numerous 2nd and 3rd shot opportunities which in a close game you have to love. I think Washington is way too well rounded for a young kentucky team.

unfortunately man tonight was not the night for public plays ... you'll get it back

[goduke]

yeah rough stuff huh lol. The michigan state game was the only one that i was real annoyed about.

[mlb]

yeah they don't look like they want it .. air balling shots and all sorts of stuff
