    Charlotte +1 (h)

    CHarlotte played St Josephs very tough last season before losing 75-70. Charlotte led the game all the way til the 5 minute mark of the 2nd half. Charlotte was up by 9 points at the half. I think money will be coming on ST Joes and the spread will be St JOes -2. I like the underdog that really has a good chance of winning the game like Charlotte does here.

    Florida St +3.5 (h)
    Last season Florida St went into Duke and beat the blue devils 68-67. Florida St has been very competitive this season. Florida St may pull out the upset again. In the game last season, the game was close all way and Duke led by 3 at the half. I expect a tie or Florida St to be up at the half.

    Northeastern +2 (h)
    William Mary is not that great in this very weak conference. These two teams play close games like they did last season in which William & Mary won by 3 points. Northeastern led that game by one point at the half. Northeastern has been stubborn in the first half of games by covering at half time. Recently they covered against Syracuse at the half by being down only two points eventually losing by 20.

    Lately I have been picking underdogs at the half and winning. Sometimes the underdogs are the best value for betting and especially at half time.

    Alabama +3.5
    Illinois St -9.5
    James Madison +7 here's a write up on this one, I like this one alot.

    James Madison comes in here with confidence, they are off a 93-74 win over UNCW - the first time they had beaten them in 15 tries. The win took them to 10-5. ODU meanwhile is off a double-OT loss to Delaware. ODU has just one double-digit scorer in Gerald Lee and he is getting just 12.9 points per game. This is a young, inexperienced team (just two returning starters) and it shows as they are inconsistent. On the other hand James Madison is experienced and balanced. The Dukes are 5-1 the past three seasons off a double-digit win. I personally will be adding 1/2 point to get +7.5, but feel +7 is a good number for a push or win.

    St. Bonaventure +7.5 - More of a play against Richmond at this price.

    Georgia Southern +6.5 - Drexel is another offensively challenged team that struggles covering spreads like this.

    Iowa State +5 - Always dangerous as home dogs.

    Southern Miss +7.5 - Underrated team that has made me some money.

    Air Force +130 Moneyline - Falcons are the better team and they are playing with revenge after Wyoming knocked them out of the Moutain West Tournament last season.
