[jeffries]

confidence level??


hey Illusion I say we have people rate there best bets with star 1 thru 5... that way everyone gets a better idea of how strongly someone feels on a particular bet... 1 star meaning your randomly guessing and dont know whos gonna win, 5 stars being absolute guarantee to win

[Razz]

OU +17

Will play Pitt if the line gets to 3.5, which I don't think is entirely impossible. OU is, and Pitt would be, a 1 unit play.

[jeffries]

[astro61200]

OU +17

Had a rough week. Lost my way...made a lot of rookie mistakes and kept chasing my money. Practically erased a good month with my own stupidity. Im hoping that by starting to post my picks i can keep myself honset and correct my mistakes.

[jeffries]

^^^ You do that while I freeload and sponge off other peoples free picks lmao

[jeffries]

yo LINE-Crusher dude, do you think Georgetown will beat Pittsburgh straight up, but you take the points just for the teaser?

[Gundog]

* Georgetown - (-2.5 )
* Pepperdine - (+15.5)
* San Jose St -(+9.5)
* Kansas- (-16.5) And over 144.5
That's my card. Use your own judgement.
I will update my thoughts when the Projected Margin Spread changes.
Good Luck tonight with who ever you pick.

716 Pittsburgh ML +120

[tevari]

716 Pittsburgh ML +120

[regularguy]

Oklahoma +16.5 (at Kansas)
I'll take Oklahoma and 16.5 against pretty much anybody anywhere.

Loyola Marymount +4.5 (v. Portland)
Loyola should put up a good fight at home against a team they can compete with.

Hawaii -6 (v. San Jose State)
Both are undersized and both are pretty bad. Hawaii should come back with a good game at home after loss to Nevada. SJSU is going to be very inconsistent this year.

Gonzaga -13.5 (at Pepperdine)
The Waves are terrible. I can't see them staying in this game against the talented Zags, who are looking to get back on track.

[GODFATHER]

Been there done that. Just like yourself I took a few steps back and regrouped just like yourself and came out with a new attack program.. Good Luck!!!!

I like Georgetown -2. this is a final 4 caliber team at a great price. Pitt is solid but they are on a tier below G-Town this season.

I thought about Kansas but don't like giving that many points.

[Tigers1230]

3* Gonzaga -13.5
Pepperdine has lost big to any decent team they have played this year. Unless they have a lights out game (much like Illinois did yesterday) they get beat by 20 here.

[Tigers1230]

I really don't like Georgetown. I know they pulled out a win against UCONN but I think they are highly overrated. I went to the Memphis vs Georgetown game and saw that they are very slow. I think any top ten team could roll on them. It's just my opinion but I see them going out in the 3rd or maybe 2nd round.

i always bet a teaser then bet straight up
nomoney line here takethe points
dont really have time to get into it i posted earlier without my books and looked like an ace .when i made my posts i was in a final table tourney on poker didnt get too detailed on why i picked these but i have good reason whyi like these.
now that the spread has moved on almost everything i picked not in favor just go with what you think. keep you mindmy weekday games have goodtrack(nobooks on me)
i think its like hell i dont know bet the oposite of me i promise you will win

*5 Pitt +2
*2 Coll Charleston
*1 OU +15-
*2 Pepperdine
*3 San Jose St +6-

[WestsidePete]

Citaldel +14.5

Game: Charleston at Citadel (7:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Citadel +14.5 (-110)

The Citadel owns just five wins on the season, and when you consider four of those have been to teams outside Division-1, that leaves them with one win. This is a team that shoots poorly and doesn't get out and defend either. So why take them? It is about value, not winning or losing and getting major double-digits at home is always enticing. Last year’s team won just four D-1 games - two in OT. That team dropped just two conference games at home by 15+, and one of those was to Davidson who ran the table. Citadel has lost by more than 15 points at home in conference play just five times in the last three years. The combined record of those teams is 96-55, with only one of them having a losing record like Charleston. Their average home loss over this period is by 10.6 points per game. Their road mark stands at 22.2 ppg over the same period. Charleston has dropped four straight on the road, and is 3-7 SU out of their own gym on the season, so they certainly don't fit the profile of a team that comes in here and blows out The Citadel. Value lies with the home team.

[obes728]

Georgetown vs. Pitt +3.5 (3 units to win 2) - I went ahead and bought 1.5 points making the line what it is. I really think the Pitt team has shown the nation how tough they are without Levance Fields and Mike Cook. The youngster DeJuan Blair will have a tough night with his first real test in Roy Hibbert. Hibbert's numbers are down a bit from last year, not sure what that's pointing to for this veteran Hoyas team but he might be on the decline already at such a young age. Ronald Ramon should be about to guard Jonathan Wallace and vice-a-versa. Not sure what Georgetown's answer to Sam Young will be, I don't think they have anyone that can match his athleticism. Pitt plays amazing at home in the Peterson Center, and have been since it was built. This will be a typical low scoring, physical, and defensive Big East matchup.
