Houli's College Hoops (2011)

HoulihansTX · 02-04-11, 11:02 AM

post away.

Niagara is one of those teams that you bet, and close your eyes. I think they win outright, but none of my local sportsbooks have ML's on the added board.

On fridays you learn more about the Ivy, and MAAC than you want to know. lol

I love Niagara but Petes has been way too good to me this year to go against them now. Like you said if you bet Niagara close your eyes and check the score after the game.

U know u gotta take the Ov on that NW game also

Houli- I liked these teams earlier in the week (St bonny/Dayton, ASU/Stanford), but I think there is better value.... Lines are pretty damn spot-on. NW almost always play IL tough, in any sport, at home, but I'll take athleticism and getting to the hole over relying on 3's... Then again, "Any given Saturday".

BTW, live in Big D, WTF about the weather?? Hoping to get a thaw tomorrow--hopefully you can take in the festivities/game!!

JJL · 02-05-11, 02:05 AM

Same could be said for Mcamey, I agree

Not betting that team again unless they are getting points.

They're a great situational bet -- usually at home. For instance, I pounded them vs. Iowa State last week when they were like -7 (won by 25).

I'm not sure how or when A&M decided to suddenly show up and play with some resilience, but it happened tonight. It's almost like the books knew it too -- Colorado was up 2 at half, but most of them were dangling a -1.5 while favoring A&M. Colorado blew countless 2/3 possession leads down the stretch, then scored 2 points the final 3-plus minutes of regulation.

I'd make this bet over and over and over again given the state of the two teams coming in.

HoulihansTX · 02-10-11, 01:42 AM

When a ranked team on the road is getting points, against an unranked home team. I always fire away.

But Colorado choked. They were better, but dont know how to win close ones.
