EP36's March to Madness

rumple · 12-31-11, 01:26 PM

Yep it was a trap, they slowed the pace down and refs are calling fouls anymore, and most importantly nobody can make a shot.

rumple · 12-31-11, 01:34 PM

And of course nobody can miss in the AP game.

rumple · 12-31-11, 01:45 PM

Ive never seen so many missed dunks in a 8 minutes of a half of basketball these 2 kentucky teams absolutely suck monkey testicles.

baazigar · 12-31-11, 01:47 PM

seriously I'm trying to stay calm but this game is pissing me off. better get DOUBLE OT

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 01:53 PM

This Louisville-UK game is one of the worst I can remember in recent memory. 23% and 21% from the floor? That is beyond terrible.

jimmy007oc · 12-31-11, 01:54 PM

0-2 today, wtf

[2nd Half] Iowa-Wisconsin Over 66 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 01:55 PM

Louisville-Kentucky ain't nearly done my friend. 8 minutes and lots of FTs coming up. Probably won't hit, but it could wind up being close.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 02:05 PM

Still can't believe how horrid the shooting has been in this game. That's why no formula or system is gonna be anywhere close to perfect. You cannot predict teams running hot and cold all the time. Shit happens. Next.

baazigar · 12-31-11, 02:20 PM

thats right man. on to the next. gluck

Troy-North Texas Under 148.5 [-110]
This one might turn your stomach because Troy's defense is terrible, but UNT has been better at home defensively and neither offense is particularly efficient. I think it will come down to UNT being able to control Troy because the Mean Green are going to score some points on this porous defense. Troy averages 70 possessions. UNT gets about 68. Both of their efficient FG%s offensively are poor, but the defenses do have some trouble stopping foes. I still think this is a little high given the situation and UNT has played UNDERs in seven of eight posted totals this season - although most have come on the road [5].

[2nd Half] Providence-Georgetown Under 71 [-110]

[2nd Half] Drake-Missouri State Under 70 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 03:59 PM

Back on track with the last two, let's get this Drake one and get over .500. Powering through here for the next couple hours before heading out for the night to get wastey faced.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 04:49 PM

Brutal last five minutes. Game was in-hand, only 43 pts scored and in the last three minutes they've put up 20+.

baazigar · 12-31-11, 04:51 PM

would you touch st. joes +6.5 second half boss?

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 04:52 PM

I'll take that push.

No opinion, have not followed that game.

Loyola Marymount +225
Using a free play on this, so it's your call. Marymount got an important cog back into their attack with the return of Viney. San Francisco is a solid team at home, but not unbeatable and they come in on a two game losing skid. If Viney controls the game, the Lions should be in this late with a chance to steal a conference win.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 05:37 PM

Egads Illinois. Nice defense here in the 2nd half. Single handedly blowing the under.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 05:55 PM

[2nd Half] Green Bay-Valparaiso Over 73 [-110]

We'll see if I can get one to drop in the right column finally. Troy is playing zero D in the 2nd half and that under is busted too. Crappy finish to the year apparently.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 06:57 PM

[2nd Half] Utah-Colorado Under 67 [-110]

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 07:31 PM

Another under killed by one team's lack of D. Fukk me.

EaglesPhan36 · 12-31-11, 07:45 PM

Probably my last bet of 2011. Been a good start to the season even if tonight's have been hit and miss. Happy New Year boys. Be safe and be lucky!

Got inside the last minute with four points to spare to a push. Last 26 seconds, five points.

Cannot believe this hit after they blew a big lead. Nice parting gift for 2011!

Any other plays? Starting to tail you. 'He is the most interesting NCAAB capper in the world. '

EaglesPhan36 · 01-02-12, 05:11 PM

Overtime saved me for once. Cashola on the over with a big scoring spree in OT. Looking at tonight's slate. Definitely down for some 2nd halves if any fit.

Chattanooga-Tennessee Over 138.5 [-110]
The Vols aren't quite the up tempo squad they used to be, but they still average 69 possessions per game and are very efficient shooting the ball. At home even more so where they shoot right around 50% from the floor and put up 75 ppg. Chattanooga actually averages about three more possessions than Tennessee. The Mocs don't shoot a great percentage from the floor [40%], but are pretty accurate from deep [36% on the road] which is where they may attack the Vols who give up 38% shooting from beyond the arc. Chattanooga is giving up 77 ppg on the road/neutral sites this season. Four of those six games has seen them give up 78 or more points. If they fall into that area again, this should make it.
