EP36's March to Madness

[No coincidences]

Stopping at 2-0. Rider-Iona line is set higher than expected by about seven possessions, but Rider 2nd halves have ended with some massive totals this season. I wouldn't be surprised if it hit over, but the formula play would trend under.

I'm on the over 163. Almost hedged out, but I'm going to stick with it. Game is right on pace and virtually no fouls have been called. Rider has attempted 2 free throws.

Wow. Sick beat on the over and the 2nd half over.

Wow. Sick beat on the over and the 2nd half over.

Par for the course with me and CBB totals.

Overall Record: 192-141-1 [+40.37]
2nd Halves: 128-85-2 [+35.70]

Probably mostly 2nd halves today. Have not even looked at the full card.

Dayton +140
I find short money line dogs very useful. This is a fun match-up with Xavier @ Dayton. Flyers should have Chris Johnson back from concussion like symptoms to play today. At home, the Flyers have been pretty solid at 9-2. Xavier have played just five true road games, going 3-2. There's not a ton to separate these two, but Dayton does have an edge at the FT line. Xavier is just 66% for the season, Dayton is at 74%.

I am with you EP! I am from Dayton and I am not sure the Flyers can win outright but they are usually tough as nails at home. UD Arena is rocking right now!

[2nd Half] Purdue-Michigan State Under 70 [-110]

[EaglesPhan36]

Well Dayton cashed. Too bad Purdue played zero defense for that 2nd half. Ready to get it back with another one.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] Boise State-TCU Over 76 [-110]
Purely speculative pick based on knowing my Alma Mater [TCU] and their lousy defense and both these teams are fairly foul prone. Good luck if you follow.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] UConn-Tennessee Under 69 [-110]

[sbearc820]

Damn - missed it cuz the second half already started.. GL Eagles!

[EaglesPhan36]

This one is looking better. The TCU one sucked, so uh message to self - stick to the formula jackass.

I went under with the formula but I was starting to worry about OT there at the end.

I don't know what I was thinking taking Under 76 with Duke / FSU. Not enough value there.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] Colorado State-Wyoming Under 67 [-110]

[EaglesPhan36]

Shitty day so far with these. Defense have not shown up in the 2nd half in pretty much ever under taken today.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] Marquette-Providence Over 76.5 [-110]
Bang.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] IUPUI-UMKC Under 76 [-110]

[EaglesPhan36]

This is just one of those days. Unders - the defenses totally lose it in the 2nd. Overs, droughts hit. Marquette game was well within reach at the 7:00 mark and they've gone four minutes now with four fukkin points.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] Portland State-E.Washington Under 77.5 [-110]

[EaglesPhan36]

Looked like a rebound night late ... but boned by OT after Portland State misses a FT that would have put them up one with :09 left. Really not my night.

[southpaw74]

Unreal again...lost mavs 2h on a last second foul to. I have gotten fukked all day. Hope clijsters can win or I'm destroyed.

[EaglesPhan36]

[2nd Half] New Mexico-UNLV Over 79.5 [-110]
Why not go fukk myself one more time.

[2nd Half] Wisconsin-Illinois Over 61 [-110]
This one is going to give me the shakes before it even starts.

[southpaw74]

Wow...I have never seen that many points in 10 minutes of a badger game

Looks like we can cash this one!

[EaglesPhan36]

Canisius-Rider doesn't fall into the formula, but I said it before Rider 2nd halves have featured an amazing amount of points more often than not. O-U is 78.5.

[2nd Half] Northwestern-Minnesota Over 71.5 [-110]

Total is at 77 with two minutes to go.

Northwestern Minnesota over looks all but dead.

[EaglesPhan36]

Northwestern sucked all day long. Oh well, 1-1 better than 2-6 yesterday.

[7pm ET]
Iona-Siena Over 148 [-110]
Iona always sets the tempo quick. They rank 15th in possessions per game with about 75 per game. Siena would prefer the tempo a little slower, but they played fast with Iona in a 95-59 blowout loss earlier in the season. Iona is one of the most efficient offenses in the country, hitting even better on the road @ 52% from the floor compared to 50% for the season. They can drain the three. They make their FTs. They score points, period. This is a team that has only scored under 70 twice in 19 games. By default, their tempo usually allows for the opposition to get some transition scores going. Siena has been more effective at home, so they should out work that low point total from the 1st meeting. In their last three home games, they have hit for 72 points or better.

Man great year! Good luck tonight!
